Objective: To quantitatively assess the health risk of preservatives from beverages around primary schools in Anshun City, and to provide scientific basis for precise food safety supervision. Methods: From December 2023 to July 2024, 602 beverage samples were randomly collected from within 100 meters of 19 primary schools in Anshun City. The content of benzoic acid, sorbic acid, and dehydroacetic acid was detected according to GB 5009 series standards. Combined with children s physiological parameters (body weight 30 kg, daily intake 0.15 L), the Hazard Quotient (HQ) and Hazard Index (HI) models were used to evaluate health risks. Results: The total detection rate of preservatives from beverages around primary schools was 63.0%, and the total over limit rate was 9.0%. The detection rate of preservatives in flavored beverages was the highest (72.6%), and the highest over limit rate of preservatives in special purpose beverages was the highest (17.2%). The single preservative HQ (benzoic acid up to 0.47 ) and mixed HI (up to 0.55) of all samples were below 1(safety threshold). However, the HQ value of benzoic acid in flavored beverages (0.47) was 2.9 times that of sorbic acid (0.16), contributing significantly to health risk. Sensitivity analysis showed that if the daily consumption increased to 0.3 L, the HI value of flavored beverages would rise to 1.11, exceeding the safety threshold. Enterprise scale analysis showed that the exceedance rate of special purpose beverages in large enterprises reached 30.0%, while micro enterprises, accounting for a dominant market share (52.2%), constituted the main source of children s daily exposure to their products. Conclusions The overall health risk of perservatives in beverages sold near primary schools in Anshun City is controllable, but there is a noticeable risk of gradient. The risk of children’s exposure to preservatives through beverage consumption should not be ignored.

Objective: To explore the association between dietary inflammatory index (DII) and elevated blood pressure among primary school students, and to analyze the mediating role of body mass index (BMI) in this association, so as to provide a scientific basis for the early prevention of childhood hypertension and dietary guidance. Methods: Research conducted based on the Ma anshan Child Growth Cohort in Anhui Province. From April to June 2024, 4 057 primary school students were selected as study subjects using a multi stage cluster sampling method. Dietary information was collected via Semi quantitative Food Frequency Questionnaire to calculate the DII score. BMI was obtained by measuring students height and weight. Elevated blood pressure was defined based on the Blood Pressure Reference Standards for Children Aged 3-17 Years. Logistic regression was used to analyze the association between DII scores and the risk of elevated blood pressure, and the Bootstrap method was employed to test for mediating effects. Results: The detection rate of elevated blood pressure among primary school students was 10.1% (408 cases). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that, after adjusting for covariates such as gender and age, for each standard deviation increase in the DII score ( s =1.94), the risk of elevated blood pressure increased by 15% ( OR =1.15, 95% CI =1.04- 1.28 , P <0.05). Compared with the lowest quartile group of DII scores ( Q 1), students in the highest quartile group ( Q 4) had a 1.31-fold higher risk of elevated blood pressure ( OR =1.31, 95% CI =1.00-1.76, P <0.05). Restricted cubic spline results indicated a linear dose response relationship between DII scores and the risk of elevated blood pressure( P nonlinear =0.13). The mediation analysis revealed that BMI played a partial mediating role in the association between DII scores and elevated blood pressure. The mediation effect value was 0.06 (95% CI =0.04-0.08), accounting for 44.64% of the total effect. Conclusions DII scores are associated with elevated blood pressure among primary school students in Ma anshan City, and BMI plays a partial mediating role in this association. Promoting an anti inflammatory dietary pattern and weight control in early childhood should be emphasized to reduce the incidence of hypertension among primary school students.

Objective: To analyze the associations of physical activity with overweight/obesity, depressive symptoms, and their co-occurrence among junior and senior high school students, so as to provide reference for optimizing physical activity intervention strategies and promoting healthy lifestyles. Methods: From March to November 2023, a cross sectional survey was conducted among 90 457 junior and senior high school students aged 11-18 years in Zhejiang Province using a stratified cluster random sampling method. Data on physical activity and dietary behavior were collected through questionnaires, height and weight were measured. Depressive symptoms were assessed using the Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale (CES-D). The Chi-square test was used to examine differences, and Logistic regression was applied to evaluate the associations of physical activity characteristics with overweight/obesity, depressive symptoms, and their co-occurrence. Additionally, the effectiveness of physical activity performed on rest days versus work days was examined. Results: The prevalence of overweight/obesity, depressive symptoms, and their co-occurrence among junior and senior high school students were 25.1%, 27.9%, and 6.7%, respectively, with significant sex differences ( χ 2=2 005.3, 587.7, 99.6, all P <0.01). Logistic regression analysis showed that students with insufficient physical activity had a higher risk of overweight/obesity compared with those with sufficient physical activity ( OR=1.12, 95%CI=1.06-1.17, P <0.01). Comparing to students who exercised 0-1 day per week, those who exercised 5-7 days per week were associated with a reduced risk of overweight/obesity and depressive symptoms ( OR=0.93, 95%CI =0.90-0.97; OR=0.95, 95%CI =0.91-0.99, both P <0.05). When total activity volume and frequency were held constant, students with sufficient rest day physical activity had lower risks of overweight/obesity, depressive symptoms, and their co-occurrence than those with insufficient rest day activity (all P < 0.01). Conclusions Sufficient amount of physical activity and higher frequency of rest day physical activity are significantly associated with lower risks of overweight/obesity, depressive symptoms, and their co-occurrence in adolescents. Physical activity performed on rest days may confer greater health benefits than activity performed on work days.

OBJECTIVE To explore the mechanism of Jiawei xiaochaihu decoction against hippocampal neuronal apoptosis in acute epileptic model mice. METHODS Thirty-six male KM mice were randomly divided into four groups with 9 mice in each group： normal control group （normal saline）， epilepsy model group （normal saline）， Jiawei xiaochaihu decoction group [7 g/（kg·d）] and carbamazepine group [positive control， 30 mg/（kg·d）]. Except for the normal control group， the acute epilepsy model was established in the other groups. After successful modeling， mice in each group were given corresponding drugs or normal saline by intragastric administration once a day for 2 consecutive weeks. After drug intervention， the ultrastructure and pathological morphology of hippocampal CA1 region were observed. The number of TUNEL-positive cells in hippocampus was detected， and the expression levels of protein kinase B （AKT）， Caspase-3， B-cell lymphoma-extra large （Bcl-xL）， Bcl-2-associated X protein （Bax）， as well as the ratio of phosphorylated AKT（p-AKT） to AKT were determined. RESULTS Compared with the normal control group， severe ultrastructural and pathological damages were observed in the hippocampal CA1 region of epilepsy model group； the number of TUNEL-positive cells was significantly increased （ P ＜0.05）. The expression levels of p-AKT and Bcl-xL were significantly down-regulated （ P ＜0.05）， while the Bax and Caspase-3 were significantly up-regulated （ P ＜0.05），accompanied by a remarkable decrease of p-AKT/AKT ratio （ P ＜0.05）. Compared with the epilepsy model group， hippocampal tissue ultrastructure， pathological damage， and the aforementioned indicators were significantly improved in Jiawei xiaochaihu decoction group （ P ＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS Jiawei xiaochaihu decoction can inhibit hippocampal neuronal apoptosis in acute epileptic mice， and its mechanism may be related to activating AKT phosphorylation， increasing p-AKT/AKT ratio， up-regulating Bcl-xL expression and down-regulating the expression of Bax and Caspase-3.

Liver injury due to acetaminophen overdose is one of the main causes of acute liver failure， with a complex pathogenesis. In this process， liver sinusoidal endothelial cell （LSEC） injury is a key early event jointly mediated by factors such as oxidative stress， cell apoptosis， and imbalance between fibrinolysis and coagulation. Subsequent LSEC dysfunction further induces sinusoidal microcirculatory disturbances， amplifies the inflammatory response， impairs the regeneration and repair abilities of the liver， and finally causes hepatocyte necrosis. This article systematically elaborates on the critical role and molecular mechanism of LSEC in acetaminophen-induced liver injury， in order to provide a theoretical basis for novel therapeutic strategies and research directions.

Objective:To explore the genetic etiology of two fetuses with Mosaic variegated aneuploidy syndrome (MVA) in a pedigree.Methods:A 30-year-old pregnant woman, who presented at the Center for Medical Genetics and Prenatal Diagnosis of Shandong Maternal and Child Health Care Hospital on November 16, 2023, was enrolled. Clinical data of the pedigree were collected, and peripheral blood samples from the parents and amniotic fluid samples from the two fetuses were obtained for genomic DNA extraction. Whole exome sequencing (WES) was performed on both fetuses, followed by Sanger sequencing for familial validation and pathogenicity analysis of candidate variants. Chromosomal karyotyping of the parents was conducted to quantify the proportion of premature chromatid separation (PCS). This study was approved by the Medical Ethics Committee of Shandong Maternal and Child Health Care Hospital (Ethics No. 2024-034).Results:① Both fetuses exhibited structural brain anomalies and developmental delays during the second trimester. Amniocyte karyotyping revealed low-level mosaic aneuploidy involving multiple chromosomes, while chromosomal microarray analysis (CMA) showed no abnormalities. Pregnancy termination was performed for fetus 1. ② WES identified compound heterozygous variants in BUB1B — c. 2363_2364del (p.S788Cfs*29) and ss804270619: G>A — in both fetuses. Sanger sequencing confirmed paternal inheritance of c. 2363_2364del and maternal inheritance of ss804270619: G>A. According to the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics (ACMG) and Clinical Genome Resource(ClinGen) Standards and Guidelines for the Interpretation of Sequence Variants, the c. 2363_2364del variant was classified as likely pathogenic (PVS1 + PM2_Supporting). Parental karyotyping demonstrated PCS traits, with a higher proportion of abnormal metaphases in the father. Conclusion:The compound heterozygous variants c. 2363_2364del (p.S788Cfs*29) and ss804270619: G>A in BUB1B may constitute the genetic etiology of the two MVA fetuses in this pedigree.
