Objective:
To explore the network structure of eating behaviors with anxiety, depression and perceived stress in adolescents, so as to provide a basis for effective prevention and intervention of eating behavior problems and negative emotions in adolescents.
Methods:
Based on the Psychology and Behavior Investigation of Chinese Residents (2021) database, the study was conducted among 3 087 adolescents. Sakata Eating Behavior Scale Short From(EBS-SF) was used to investigate their eating behaviors. The Patient Health Questionnaire-9(PHQ-9), Generalized Anxiety Disorder Scale-7 Item(GAD-7), and Perceived Stress Questionnaire-3 Item (PSQ-3) were used to evaluate their depression, anxiety and perceived stress. Network analysis method was applied to construct a network of eating behaviors and negative emotional symptoms among adolescents, so as to evaluate the centrality, bridge strength, stability and accuracy of each item.
Results:
The total scores of eating behaviors, depression,anxiety and stress perception in adolescents were 17.41±4.53,6.95±6.08,4.86±5.03,9.34±3.80,respectively. The symptom with the highest intensity and expected impact was "I am only satisfied when I buy more food than I need", with a node intensity and expected impact value of 4.37. The nodes Depression and Anxiety were the most closely connected(weight=0.87). There were no statistically significant differences in the network structure( M =0.13,0.11) and network connection strength(female and male:4.16,4.06, s =0.10;urban and rural areas:4.08,4.07, s =0.01) between different sexes and residents ( P >0.05).
Conclusion
The negative impact of comorbidities such as anxiety, depression, perceived stress and eating behaviors among adolescents can be reduced through targeted prevention and intervention of core symptoms and bridging symptoms.

The pathological changes of myocardial infarction (MI) are mainly characterized by progressive myocardial ischemic necrosis, decline in cardiac diastolic function, thinning of the ventricular wall, and enlargement of the ventricles. The clinical manifestations include myocardial ischemia, heart failure, arrhythmia, shock, and even sudden cardiac death, rendering MI one of the most perilous cardiovascular diseases. Currently, the clinical treatment for MI primarily involves interventional procedures and drug therapy. However, due to their significant side effects and high complication rates associated with these treatments, they fail to ensure a satisfactory quality of life and long-term prognosis for patients. On the other hand, traditional Chinese medicine has demonstrated remarkable potential in improving patient prognosis while reducing side effects. Research has elucidated that various signaling pathways such as nuclear transcription factor-κB (NF-κB), adenosine 5̒-monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK), transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β)/Smads, mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), Wnt/β-catenin (β-catenin), and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)/protein kinase B(Akt) play crucial roles in regulating the occurrence and development of MI. Effectively modulating these signaling pathways through its therapeutic interventions, traditional Chinese medicine can enhance MI management by inhibiting apoptosis, providing anti-inflammatory properties, alleviating oxidative stress levels, and resisting myocardial ischemia. Due to its notable efficacy and favorable safety, it has become an area of focus in clinical practice.

Chinese Journal of School Health 2025;46(1):53-57
Objective:
To explore the current status and influencing factors of eating behaviors in adolescents, so as to provide a theoretical foundation for health promotion education among adolescents.
Methods:
Based on the database from Survey of Chinese Family Health Index (2021), by a random number table method, 1 065 teenagers were selected from the provincial capitals of 22 provinces and 5 autonomous regions in China, as well as 4 municipalities directly under the central government. A general characteristic questionnaire, Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9), Short Form of the Family Health Scale (FHS-SF), 10-item Short Version of the Big Five Personality(BFP-10), Content-based Media Exposure Scale (CM-E) and Sakata Eating Behavior Scale Short Form(EBS-SF) were used to collect information. Multivariate stepwise linear regression analysis was employed to identify and analyze related factors of eating behaviors among adolescents. Receiver operating characteristic was used to validate the predictive ability of the EBS-SF score for overweight and obesity among adolescents.
Results:
The average scores of BFI-10,C-ME, FHS-SF, PHQ-9 and EBS-SF were (33.08±4.64)(19.20±4.55)(38.48±6.65)(6.09±5.63)(16.75±4.36), respectively. Multivariate linear regression showed that family type (other types), agreeableness, conscientiousness, family health and depression were the main related factors of EBS-SF scores among adolescents( B =2.61,-0.42,0.20,-0.11,0.23, P <0.05).The analysis of receiver operating characteristic curve showed that the EBS-SF scores had a good ability in predicting obesity among male adolescents ( AUC= 0.73, P <0.01).
Conclusions
Family type, big five personality, family health,depression are the related factors of eating behaviors among adolescents. EBS-SF scores are predictive of obesity in adolescents, which would provide a new perspective for promoting healthy eating habits among adolescents.

Objective To investigate the safety, economic benefits and psychological effects of day breast conserving surgery for breast cancer. Methods The demographic data and clinical data of breast cancer patients undergoing day (day surgery group) and ward (ward surgery group) breast conserving surgeries in West China Hospital of Sichuan University from March 2020 to June 2021 were retrospectively collected; the demographic data, clinical data, medical and related transportation costs, and preoperative and postoperative BREAST-Q scores of breast cancer patients undergoing day (day surgery group) and ward (ward surgery group) breast conserving surgery in West China Hospital of Sichuan University from June 2021 to June 2022 were prospectively collected. The safety, economic benefit, and psychological satisfaction of day surgery was analyzed. Results A total of 42 women with breast cancer were included in the retrospective study and 39 women with breast cancer were included in the prospective study. In both prospective and retrospective studies, the mean age of patients in both groups were <50 years. There were only statistical differences between the two groups in the aspects of hypertension (P=0.022), neoadjuvant chemotherapy (P=0.037) and postoperative pathological estrogen receptor (P=0.033) in the prospective study. In postoperative complications, there were no statistical differences in the surgical-related complications or anesthesia-related complications between the two groups in either the prospective study or the retrospective study (P>0.05). In terms of the overall cost, we found that the day surgery group was more economical than the ward surgery group in the prospective study (P=0.002). There were no statistical differences in postoperative psychosocical well-being, sexual well-being, satisfaction with breasts or chest condition between the two groups (P>0.05). Conclusion It is safe and reliable to carry out breast conserving surgery in day surgery center under strict management standards, which can save medical costs and will not cause great psychological burden to patients.

Objective :
To analyze the current status of anti-PD-1 combined with chemotherapy in advanced gastric cancer.
Methods:
The clinical data of 120 patients with advanced gastric cancer treated with chemotherapy or anti-PD-1 plus chemotherapy were retrospectively analyzed. The efficacy [measures include objective response rate(ORR), disease control rate(DCR), and progression-free survival(PFS)]and the occurrence of adverse reactions in patients was monitored. Univariate and multivariate Cox were used to analyze the relationship between clinicopathologic data [including age, gender, body mass index(BMI), differentiation degree, and related hematological indexes], specific treatment conditions and PFS, and to analyze the influence of treatment plan and line number on the curative effect.
Results :
The PFS of chemotherapy plus immunotherapy was significantly better than that of chemotherapy alone(P<0.05), and the median PFS of the two was 7.17 months(95%CI5.85-8.49) and 5.33 months(95%CI3.96-5.70), respectively. In the combination group, the overall ORR was 27.5% and DCR was 94.8%. In the chemotherapy group alone, the overall ORR was 9.7% and DCR was 69.4%.In the chemotherapy plus anti-PD-1 group, a high prognostic nutritional index(PNI) level also provided superior PFS in patients with a 47% reduction in the risk of progression versus a low PNI level [HR0.53(95%CI0.30-0.96);P<0.05]. The median PFS was 7.47 months(95%CI5.83-9.11) with a high PNI level versus 6.00 months(95%CI4.45-7.55) with a low PNI level. The overall incidence of adverse reactions of chemotherapy combined with anti-PD-1 was slightly higher than that of chemotherapy alone, and the incidence of adverse reactions of grade 3-4 was similar, within a controllable range, and could be improved after clinical treatment.
Conclusion
The efficacy of anti-PD-1 combined with chemotherapy in patients with advanced gastric cancer is better than that of chemotherapy, and the adverse reactions are controllable. In the chemotherapy plus anti-PD-1 group, patients with high PNI levels achieved a higher PFS.

Mitochondria are widely involved in the important pathophysiological processes such as cell apoptosis,metabolism,immune response,and signal transduction,and are the central hub of energy metabolism in most eukaryotic cells.Oxidative phosphorylation(OXPHOS)is a key link in mitochondrial adenosine triphosphate(ATP)production for energy supply.Mitochondria provide potential energy through an electron transport chain,which generates a proton gradient in the mitochondrial inner membrane and reacts with complex ATPase to produce ATP.Ischemia,hypoxia,and other factors can cause mitochondrial damage,imbalance of OXPHOS,leading to myocardial energy deficiency,oxidative stress damage,cell apoptosis,and other important mechanisms in the occurrence and development of cardiovascular diseases.Traditional Chinese medicine has a definite therapeutic effect on improving cardiovascular diseases,and its mechanism may be closely related to regulating mitochondrial OXPHOS and reducing structural and functional damage to myocardial cells.Based on this,the mechanism of mitochondrial OXPHOS in cardiovascular diseases and the intervention effect of traditional Chinese medicine were systematically reviewed to provide a basis for clinical treatment of cardiovascular diseases.

OBJECTIVES:
To design a deep learning model that balances model complexity and performance to enable its integration into wearable ECG monitoring devices for automated diagnosis of atrial fibrillation.
METHODS:
This study was performed based on data from 84 patients with atrial fibrillation, 25 patients with atrial fibrillation, and 18 subjects without obvious arrhythmia collected from the publicly available datasets LTAFDB, AFDB, and NSRDB, respectively. A lightweight attention network based on depthwise separable convolution and fusion of channel-spatial information, namely DSC-AttNet, was proposed. Depthwise separable convolution was introduced to replace standard convolution and reduce model parameters and computational complexity to realize high efficiency and light weight of the model. The multilayer hybrid attention mechanism was embedded to compute the attentional weights of the channels and spatial information at different scales to improve the feature expression ability of the model. Ten-fold cross-validation was performed on LTAFDB, and external independent testing was conducted on AFDB and NSRDB datasets.
RESULTS:
DSC-AttNet achieved a ten-fold average accuracy of 97.33% and a precision of 97.30% on the test set, both of which outperformed the other 4 comparison models as well as the 3 classical models. The accuracy of the model on the external test set reached 92.78%, better than those of the 3 classical models. The number of parameters of DSC-AttNet was 1.01M, and the computational volume was 27.19G, both smaller than the 3 classical models.
CONCLUSIONS
This proposed method has a smaller complexity, achieves better classification performance, and has a better generalization ability for atrial fibrillation classification.
