Chinese Journal of School Health 2026;47(3):398-402
Objective:
To explore the impact of adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) on health risk behaviors (HRBs) among college students and the mediating role of psychological symptoms, so as to provide a basis for developing intervention strategies.
Methods:
From March to April 2023, a convenience cluster sample of 1 801 students from 12 universities in Nanning, Liuzhou, Guilin, Wuzhou of Guangxi completed an online survey. A self designed questionnaire, Adverse Childhood Experiences-International Questionnaire (ACE-IQ) and Symptom Checklist-90 (SCL-90) were used for evaluation tools. Binary Logistic regression, structural equation modeling (SEM) and Bootstrap methods were used to analyze the associations and mediating effects.
Results:
Overall, 71.2% of college students experienced at least one type of ACE, with emotional neglect (40.3%) and emotional abuse ( 25.2 %) having the highest detection rates. The top three HRBs were unhealthy diet (77.8%), physical inactivity (54.1%), and smoking/alcohol use (18.5%). Logistic regression showed that poor family functioning, abuse, and extra familial violence were each associated with an increased risk of smoking/alcohol use ( OR =1.14, 1.11, 1.18) and deliberate self harm ( OR =1.26, 1.19,1.30) (all P <0.05). Experience of abuse increased the risk of high risk sexual behavior and family dysfunction increaded the risk of physical inactivity, respectively ( OR = 1.07 , 1.04, both P <0.05). Mediation analysis revealed that anxiety ( β =0.20) and depression ( β = 0.09 ) partially mediated the pathway from poor family functioning to deliberate self harm; paranoia ( β =0.02) partially mediated the pathway from abuse to high risk sexual behavior; and obsessive-compulsive symptoms ( β =0.26) and depression ( β =0.10) partially mediated the pathway from extra familial violence to deliberate self harm (all P <0.05).
Conclusion
Psychological symptoms play a mediating role in the association between ACEs and HRBs, and mental health interventions may reduce the risk of HRBs among college students.

ObjectiveTo investigate the mechanism by which Wumeiwan suppresses the development and progression of colorectal cancer(CRC) through the regulation of fatty acid metabolic reprogramming, thereby providing new experimental evidence for the prevention and treatment of CRC. MethodsA total of 120 C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into the blank group, model group, Wumeiwan high-, medium-, and low-dose groups(54, 27, 13.5 g·kg-1), and the mesalazine group(0.01 g·kg-1), with 20 mice in each group. Except for the blank group, all mice were subjected to azoxymethane(AOM)/dextran sulfate sodium(DSS) treatment to establish an inflammation-associated CRC model. One week after AOM injection, mice in the treatment groups received intragastric administration of the designated drugs, while the blank and model groups received an equal volume of purified water, continuing until 20 d after the intervention endpoint. Hematoxylin-eosin(HE) staining was used to observe colonic histopathological alterations, and immunohistochemistry for vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF) was performed to evaluate neovascularization and tumor invasion. Metabolomics combined with Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes(KEGG) and metabolite set enrichment analysis(MSEA) was applied to identify key CRC-related metabolic pathways, which were further validated by transcriptomic Gene Ontology(GO) enrichment and gene heatmap analysis. Subsequently, Western blot was performed to determine the expression levels of core proteins in these pathways, and immunofluorescence was used to analyze their localization and co-expression patterns in tissues, thereby elucidating the mechanism of Wumeiwan from multiple biological dimensions. ResultsCompared with the blank group, mice in the model group exhibited a significant decrease in body weight and a significant increase in the disease activity index(DAI) score(P<0.05), with pronounced colonic mucosal damage accompanied by aggravated tumor invasion. Compared with the model group, Wumeiwan intervention markedly improved body weight loss and reduced DAI score, attenuated mucosal injury, and significantly decreased VEGF expression level(P<0.05). Multi-omics analysis revealed that differential metabolites and genes across groups were commonly enriched in fatty acid metabolism, fatty acid biosynthesis, and other lipid-related pathways. Relative to the blank group, the model group showed significant upregulation levels of fatty acid synthesis-related genes, including sterol regulatory element-binding protein 1(SREBP1), fatty acid synthase(FASN), stearoyl-CoA desaturase 1(SCD1), as well as saturated fatty acids(P<0.05). Compared with the model group, treatment with Wumeiwan significantly reduced the expression of key genes involved in fatty acid metabolic pathways, including SREBP1, FASN, and SCD1(P<0.05). Western blot results further confirmed that proteins in this pathway were significantly elevated in the model group, whereas they were markedly downregulated following Wumeiwan treatment(P<0.05). Immunofluorescence analysis demonstrated enhanced co-localization of SREBP1 with the cancer-associated fibroblast(CAF) marker α-smooth muscle actin(SMA) in the model group, whereas this co-localization signal was attenuated after Wumeiwan intervention(P<0.05). ConclusionWumeiwan can improve survival outcomes and alleviate colonic pathological damage in CRC mice, its therapeutic mechanism may be closely associated with the regulation of fatty acid metabolic reprogramming mediated by the SREBP1/FASN/SCD1 signaling pathway.

BACKGROUND:Apoptosis plays an important role in secondary brain injury.Therefore,to explore the pathophysiological mechanism of promoting nerve cell survival after traumatic brain injury provides a new direction and theoretical basis for the prevention and treatment of traumatic brain injury. OBJECTIVE:To explore the expression changes of Lnx1 molecule in mammalian cortical neurons after brain injury and the possible mechanism involved in secondary brain injury. METHODS:Eighty adult SD rats were divided into 20 male and 20 female mice in sham operation group and 20 male and 20 female mice in traumatic brain injury group.The traumatic brain injury rat model was established by heavy falling method.At 6,12,24,48,and 72 hours after brain injury,the expression of related molecules in damaged cortical neurons was analyzed by RT-qPCR,western blot assay,and immunofluorescence staining. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)The brain tissue of traumatic brain injury group was bleeding and obvious tissue injury could be observed.Water content of brain tissue increased after traumatic brain injury.(2)Compared with the sham operation group,the expression of Lnx1 in cortical neurons after traumatic brain injury increased significantly at 24 hours after injury.(3)After traumatic brain injury,the expression of PBK and BCR protein decreased,and the pro-survival factor ctgf increased.(4)These findings suggest that after traumatic brain injury,the expression of Lnx1 is up-regulated in neurons,which may be due to the decrease of the expression of its target molecules PBK and BCR,and further promote the expression of living factor ctgf,which has a protective effect on the damaged neurons.

Objective:To investigate the anti-leukemic effects and resistance mechanisms of venetoclax in acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Genomic, transcriptomic, and clinical data from AML patients who underwent venetoclax drug sensitivity testing were downloaded from the Beat AML database. Correlation analysis was performed between these data and venetoclax sensitivity outcomes. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) associated with venetoclax sensitivity were identified from transcriptomic data and subsequently validated using GEO database transcriptomic results and in vitro experiments (including Western blot). Functional enrichment analyses (KEGG and GSEA), transcription factor enrichment analysis (KnockTF), and data from public databases were employed to further investigate key genes and pathways influencing drug sensitivity.Results:After filtering the Beat AML cohort, data from 52 patient samples with available in vitro venetoclax sensitivity results were included for analysis. Patients with FLT3 mutations exhibited greater sensitivity to venetoclax compared to those with FLT3 wild-type. Correlation analysis between clinical information and drug sensitivity data indicated that higher peripheral blood tumor burden was associated with increased sensitivity to venetoclax. Transcriptomic analysis and in vitro experiments confirmed that venetoclax inhibits the FLT3-related signaling pathway, including downregulation of FLT3 expression and reduced phosphorylation of its downstream targets AKT and STAT5. KEGG pathway and KnockTF transcription factor enrichment analyses indicated that venetoclax resistance was associated with increased transcriptional activity of FOXM1 and STAT3. Moreover, high expression of FOXM1 and STAT3 correlated with shorter overall survival in patients.Conclusion:Venetoclax can inhibit the activation of FLT3-related signaling pathways. The activation of STAT3 and FOXM1 transcription factors is a potential key mechanism contributing to venetoclax resistance in AML.

Abstract
Breastfeeding has an irreplaceable effect on the growth and development of premature infants and the reduction of complications during hospitalization. In recent years, with the opening of China′s birth policy, the incidence of premature babies has increased, and the corresponding complications have also gradually increased. Breast milk not only carries a rich supply of nutrients, including rich proteins, lipids, sugars to support the normal growth and development of infants, but also contains a large number of immunoglobulins, hormones and other bioactive substances to promote the improvement of body immune function and the development of nervous system. In recent years, many studies have been carried out on the current situation of breast milk operation in breast milk bank, the collection and influencing factors of breast milk, the strategies of breast milk enrichment and its effects on the growth and development of premature infants and complications. Therefore, breast-feeding and intensive breast-feeding can effectively promote the growth and development of premature infants, and reduce the occurrence of complications.
