Objective To understand the current situation of nutrition literacy of primary and secondary school students in Shijingshan District of Beijing, and analyze its influencing factors, and to put forward targeted suggestions for improving the students’ nutrition literacy and promoting their healthy growth. Methods A multi-stage stratified cluster sampling method was used to select 2480 primary and secondary school students and their parents from 5 primary schools, 3 middle schools and 1 high school in Shijingshan District. The multivariate logistic regression model was used to analyze the factors influencing the attainment rate of nutrition literacy. Results The median score of nutrition literacy of 2480 primary and secondary school students from grades 1 to 12 was 77.86 (in hundred-mark system), the quartile range (IQR) was 16.96, and the attainment rate of nutrition literacy was 42.46%. The cognitive level (45.12%) was higher than the skill level (41.20%) among students from grades 3 to 12. In terms of skills, the attainment rate of food preparation was the lowest, at 30.38%. The scores of nutrition literacy of girls were higher than those of boys, and the scores of primary school students were higher than those of secondary school students. Students with different levels of caregiver’s education, family income, and family food environment had different scores of nutrition literacy, and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the attainment rate of nutrition literacy was closely related to student’s gender and study stage, caregiver’s education level, and family food environment. Conclusion The nutrition literacy of primary and secondary school students in Shijingshan District still needs to be improved, especially in the aspect of skills. Targeted nutrition education should be carried out.

Objective:To evaluate the mechanical stability of the bone block after LeFort Ⅰ osteotomy with maxillary advancement using absorbable plates fixed with tenon-and-mortise structures.Methods:This study developed three finite element models: one for the maxillary LeFort Ⅰ osteotomy with anterior advancement fixed with absorbable plates (Model 1); another for the maxillary LeFort Ⅰ osteotomy with anterior advancement fixed with absorbable plates assisted by tenon-and-mortise structures (Model 2); and the last one for the maxillary LeFort Ⅰ osteotomy with anterior advancement fixed with titanium plates and screws (Model 3). Simulated occlusal forces were applied on the anterior and posterior teeth in each model. The displacement changes of the nasal-palatine point (NP) and posterior nasal spine point (PNS) in the finite element coordinate system were compared and analyzed. The Mises equivalent stress distributions of the metal and absorbable plates were also examined to assess the mechanical stability of the three finite element models. Clinical data from 45 patients with dentofacial deformities treated from January 2017 to January 2023 at the Stomatology Hospital of China Medical University were collected. The age of the patients was 21±3 years. Among these, 15 patients had absorbable plates for fixation, 15 had absorbable plates assisted by tenon-and-mortise structures, and 15 had titanium plates and screws fixation after maxillary advancement. All patients underwent preoperative (T0), postoperative 3 days (T1), and 6 months (T2) spiral CT scans. The CT data in DICOM format were input into digital software, which was used to calculate the distances from the NP and PNS points to the horizontal plane (HP), right sagittal plane (FZSR), and coronal plane (CP) at T1 and T2. The distances at T1 and T2 were statistically analyzed using the Wilcoxon signed-rank test with SPSS 20.0, and a P value of<0.05 was considered statistically significant.Results:The finite element analysis showed that in the absorbable plate-only fixation group, the maximum displacement of the NP point (mm) under anterior and posterior tooth force conditions were 0.6 and 0.12, respectively, and for the PNS point, the maximum displacements were 0.5 and 0.11. In the tenon-and-mortise-assisted absorbable plate fixation group, the displacement of the NP point was 0.40 and 0.02 mm, and the displacement of the PNS point was 0.5 and 0.015 mm. In the titanium plate-screw fixation group, the NP point displacement was 0.33 and 0.055 mm, and the PNS point displacement was 0.16 and 0.1 mm. The Mises equivalent stress on the absorbable plates with tenon-and-mortise structure was significantly lower than that in the absorbable plate-only fixation group, while the titanium plate experienced the highest Mises equivalent stress. The clinical data analysis showed that in the horizontal direction, the postoperative stability of the three fixation methods was similar. However, in the vertical and anterior-posterior directions, the absorbable plate-only fixation group showed significant differences in the distances of PNS-HP, PNS-CP, and NP-CP between T1 and T2 ( P=0.018, P=0.009, P=0.017), suggesting significant postoperative bone displacement. In contrast, the tenon-and-mortise-assisted absorbable plate fixation group and the titanium plate-screw fixation group showed no significant differences in displacement during surgery and postoperatively(all P>0.05), demonstrating higher stability. Conclusions:The tenon-and-mortise-assisted absorbable plate fixation provides comparable stability to titanium plate fixation in clinical results, and it is more stable than absorbable plate-only fixation. In the mechanical study, when force was applied on the anterior teeth, the stability of the tenon-and-mortise-assisted absorbable plate fixation was slightly less than that of titanium plate fixation, but when posterior teeth were used, its stability exceeded both titanium plate fixation and absorbable plate-only fixation. The tenon-and-mortise-assisted absorbable plate fixation serves as an effective alternative to titanium plate fixation after LeFort Ⅰ osteotomy.

Objective To investigate the mechanism and protective effect of Humanin(HN)on rotenone(Rot)-induced toxic damage for dopamine neurons.Methods The Rot-poisened PC12 cell model was constructed,and the control group,the Rot poisening group,the HN pretreated Rot poisening group,and the HN treatment group were set up.ELISA was used to detect the content of HN inside and outside of Rot-infected cells,CCK-8 assay was used to detect cell viability,and ATP detection kit was used to detect the intracellular ATP content.Dichloro-dihydro-fluorescein diacetate(DCFH-DA)assay was used to detect the level of reactive oxygen species(ROS)in cells.Western blotting was performed to detect the expression level of mitochondrial autophagy regulatory proteins Pink1,Parkin,p62,LC3,mitochondrial biogenesis regulatory protein PGC1α,division/fusion regulatory proteins OPA1,MFN2,DRP1,p-DRP1 and antioxidant stress regulatory proteins Keap1 and Nrf2.HBAD-mcherry-EGFP-LC3 adenovirus transfected cells was used to observed the number of autophagosomes and autophagolysosomes.Results The results showed that the intracellular concentration of HN in PC12 in the Rot poisening group was significantly higher than that in the control group(P＜0.05);Compared with the control group,the Rot poisening group had significantly decreased activity of PC12 cells,decreased ATP content and increased production of ROS.After the poisen of Rot in PC12 cells,the expression of Pink1 and p-Parkin,the ratio of LC3Ⅱ/LC3Ⅰ and the expression of p-DRP1 in mitochondrial fusion protein was increased,while the expression of p62,the expression of mitochondrial biogenesis protein PGC1 α,mitochondrial fusion proteins MFN2 and OPA1,and antioxidant stress proteins Keap1 and Nrf2 were decreased(all P＜0.05).The number of autophagosomes and autophagolysosomes in PC12 cells in the Rot poisening group was higher than that in the control group(P＜0.05),and HN pretreatment(20 μmol/L)could significantly improve the changes mentioned above caused by Rot poisening(P＜0.05).Conclusion HN ameliorates Rot-induced toxic damage for dopamine neurons by inhibiting mitophagy and mitochondrial division and promoting mitochondrial biogenesis and fusion,and anti-oxidative stress.

Tuberous sclerosis complex(TSC)is a rare genetic disease that can lead to benign dysplasia in multiple organs such as the skin, brain, eyes, oral cavity, heart, lungs, kidneys, liver, and bones. Its main symptoms include epilepsy, intellectual disabilities, skin depigmentation, and facial angiofibromas, whilst incidence is approximately 1 in 10 000 to 1 in 6000 newborns. This case presents a middle-aged woman who initially manifested with epilepsy and nodular depigmentation. Later, she developed a lower abdominal mass, elevated creatinine, and severe anemia. Based on clinical features and whole exome sequencing, the primary diagnosis was confirmed as TSC. Laboratory and imaging examinations revealed that the lower abdominal mass originated from the uterus. CT-guided biopsy pathology and surgical pathology suggested a combination of leiomyoma and abscess. With the involvement of multiple organs and various complications beyond the main diagnosis, the diagnostic and therapeutic process for this patient highlights the importance of rigorous clinical thinking and multidisciplinary collaboration in the diagnosis and treatment of rare and challenging diseases.

Objective:To explore the effectiveness of a hysteroscopic endometrial lesion diagnosis model de-veloped based on deep learning(DL)algorithm combined with gradient-weighted class activation mapping(Grad-CAM)visualization technology.Methods:303 hysteroscopy videos(4781 images)of 291 patients who un-derwent hysteroscopy examination in the Department of Gynecology,Renmin Hospital of Wuhan University from June 1,2021 to December 31,2022 were selected.The dataset was divided into a training set(3703 images)and a test set(1078 images)by weight sampling method.After the training set was used for model learning and train-ing,two model architectures,residual neural network(ResNet18)and efficient neural network(EfficientNet-B0),were selected to verify the model in the test set by five-class and two-class classification tasks,respectively.Tak-ing histopathology as the gold standard,the diagnostic efficacy was evaluated to select the optimal model,and the Grad-CAM layer was embedded in the optimal model to output hysteroscopy images of Grad-CAM.Results:①In the five-class classification tasks,the accuracy of EfficientNet-B0 model(93.23％)was higher than that of Res-Net18 model(84.23％);the area under the curve(AUC)of EfficientNet-B0 model in the diagnosis of five disea-ses,including atypical endometrial hyperplasia,endometrial polyps,endometrial cancer,endometrial atypical hy-perplasia,and submucous myoma,was slightly higher than that of ResNet18 model,and the AUC of both models was almost above 0.980.②In the binary classification task of accuracy and the evaluation of specificity,the two models were similar,both above 93.00％,and the sensitivity of EfficientNet-B0 model(91.14％)was significantly better than that of ResNet18 model(77.22％).③EfficientNet-B0 model combined with Grad-CAM algorithm could identify the abnormal areas in the image.After biopsy and pathological examination,it was confirmed that about 95％of the marked areas in the model's output heatmap were lesion areas.Conclusions:The hysteroscopy di-agnostic model developed by EfficientNet-B0 model combined with Grad-CAM has high diagnostic accuracy,sen-sitivity,and specificity,and has application value in the diagnosis of endometrial lesions.
