Objective: To explore the relationship between snack consumption and depressive symptoms in first year junior high school students with different left behind experiences in Yunnan Province, so as to provide a basis for improving depressive symptoms among first year junior high school students with different left behind experiences. Methods: From October to December 2022,a cluster random sampling method was used to select 8 500 first year junior high school students from 11 ethnic minority areas (Fugong County, Longling County, Longyang District, Luchun County, Mojiang County, Nanjian County, Qiaojia County, Shuangjiang County, Tengchong City, Yuanmou County, Zhenyuan County) in Yunnan Province for a questionnaire survey. The Chinese version of Depression Anxiety Stress Scale-21 was applied to assess depressive symptoms in first year junior high school students, and snack consumption was collected by employing food frequency questionnaire. The generalized linear model was used to analyze the association between first year junior high school students snack consumption and depressive symptoms, and the analysis was stratified according to left behind experience. Results: The detection rates of depressive symptoms among firstyear junior high school students with and without left behind experience were 36.25% and 26.91%, respectively. After controlling for confounding variables, the generalized linear model analysis showed that sweet snacks ( β=0.16, 95%CI =0.07-0.25), fast food ( β=0.14, 95%CI =0.04-0.23) and carbonated drinks ( β=0.09, 95%CI =0.01-0.17) of first year junior high school students with left behind experience (all P <0.05). Compared with those without such behavior, the risk of depressive symptoms was higher in consumption of fast food ( β=0.13, 95%CI =0.07-0.18) and carbonated drinks ( β=0.10, 95%CI =0.06-0.15)among first year junior high school students without left behind experience (both P <0.05). Conclusion Snack consumption among first year junior high school students in Yunnan may increase the risk of developing depressive symptoms, while first year junior high school students with left behind experience may have a greater risk of developing depressive symptoms.

OBJECTIVE To understand the current management status of the special campaign for enhancing the pathogen detection rate before antimicrobial therapy in hospitalized patients in China,analyze identified issues dur-ing implementation,and propose improvement suggestions.METHOD A questionnaire survey was conducted to collect data from medical institutions participating in the special campaign within the region from May to Jul.2024,covering aspects such as quality control management,coordination mechanisms,data sources,indicator connotations and existing issues.RESULTS Variations were observed among medical institutions in the manage-ment of pathogen detection rates,primarily reflected in inconsistent usage of detection rate indicators,varying im-plementation levels of quality control measures and differences in multi-departmental participation.Additionally,discrepancies in data sources,statistical methods and interpretations of indicator connotations limited the compara-bility of data.CONCLUSIONS To address these issues,improvement measures such as strengthening informatiza-tion construction,standardizing indicator statistical methods and enhancing multi-departmental coordination mech-anisms should be implemented.These efforts will provide a scientific basis for the implementation of special cam-paign and robust support for the rational use of antimicrobial agents.

Objective To investigate the effect of subanesthetic dose of esketamine on emergence agitation(EA)in patients undergoing laparoscopic hernia repair.Methods Seventy-two male patients who treated with lapa-roscopic hernia repair under general anesthesia were randomly divided into AS group(subanesthetic esketamine)and control group.In the AS group,0.2 mg/kg of esketamine was administered intravenously 30 minutes before the surgery ended,while the control group was given an equal volume of normal saline.Upon surgery completion,patients were transferred to PACU with endotracheal tube retained,and the time to extubation was recorded.Hemo-dynamic parameters were measured immediately after extubation and at 10 min,30 min,1 h,and 4 h thereafter.Patients' pain and sedation levels were assessed at the above time points using RASS and VAS,respectively.The incidence of EA was evaluated using the Confusion Assessment Method for the Intensive Care Unit(CAM-ICU).Observation duration in the PACU and recovery outcomes within 24 hours postoperatively were assessed via the QoR-40 and adverse events were recorded.Results Compared to those in the control group,patients in the AS group had higher HR and MAP at 10 min post-extubation,and the changes in HR and MAP over time were more stable(P<0.05).The RASS and VAS scores in the AS group were significantly lower than those in the control group at the time of extubation and all subsequent time points(P<0.05),both groups showed temporal changes in RASS and VAS scores(P<0.05),but the change process in the AS group was more stable(P<0.05).Postoperative extubation time,PACU observation duration,and adverse event rates(delirium,respiratory depression,nausea and vomiting)did not differ significantly between the two groups(P>0.05),while recovery quality was markedly better in the AS group(P<0.05).Conclusion Subanesthetic esketamine effectively alleviates pain and the incidence of EA,supports hemodynamic stability during PACU stay,and enhances recovery quality in patients undergoing laparo-scopic hernia repair,demonstrating clinical value.

Objective Based on the"preventive treatment of disease"theory and real-world data,this study aimed to evaluate the clinical efficacy of Yangyin Shugan Formula in patients with ovarian dysfunction characterized by the syndrome of kidney deficiency and liver depression at different stages and to provide evidence for optimizing the timing of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)in premature ovarian insufficiency(POI)management.Methods Ovarian dysfunction patients under 40 years old characterized by syndrome of kidney deficiency and liver depression,registered in the outpatient electronic medical records of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine from January 2020 to December 2023,were stratified into three groups:subclinical POI,POI,and premature ovarian failure(POF)groups.The therapeutic outcomes of the three groups of patients were compared,including TCM syndrome total response rates,menstrual total response rates/normalization(cured)rates,base follicle-stimulating hormone(FSH)total response rate/normalization rates and anti-Müllerian hormone(AMH)levels.Results A total of 307 patients meeting the research criteria were included(97 cases in subclinical POI group,112 cases in POI group,and 98 cases in POF group).The TCM syndrome total response rates ranked as subclinical POI group(98.97%,96/97)>POI group(95.54%,107/112)>POF group(83.67%,82/98),with the POF group was lower than that of the subclinical POI and POI groups(P<0.017);while the difference of the subclinical POI group with the POI group was not significant.Menstrual total response rates ranked as subclinical POI group(97.22%,70/72)>POI group(72.32%,81/112)>POF group(51.02%,50/98),the differences among the three groups and in the post-hoc comparisons were significant(P<0.01,P<0.017);normalization rates ranked as subclinical POI group(90.28%,65/72)>POI group(54.46%,61/112)>POF group(26.53%,26/98),the differences among the three groups and in the post-hoc comparisons were significant(P<0.01,P<0.017).FSH total response rates ranked as subclinical POI group(89.69%,87/97)>POI group(81.25%,91/112)>POF group(60.20%,59/98),while POF group was lower than that of the other two groups(P<0.017),and the difference of the subclinical POI group with the POI group was not significant.Normalization FSH rates ranked as subclinical POI group(71.13%,69/97)>POI group(53.57%,60/112)>POF group(16.33%,16/98),the differences among the three groups and in the post-hoc comparisons were significant(P<0.01,P<0.017).Compared with before treatment,the FSH levels in all three groups decreased after treatment(P<0.01).The reduction of FSH in the POF and POI groups were better than that in the subclinical P OI group(P<0.017).No significant difference was observed in the reduction of FSH between the POI and POF groups.Post-treatment AMH elevation observed in the subclinical POI and POI groups(P<0.01).Conclusion Yangyin Shugan Formula improves the menstrual conditions and TCM syndromes across all the stages.It also improves elevated FSH levels across all the stages and has a specific effect on normalizing FSH and menstruation.Yangyin Shugan Formula increases the AMH levels of patients with subclinical POI and POI,highlighting the applicability of TCM in staged preventive management.

Objective To rescue a strain of Chikungunya virus(CHIKV)using reverse genetics system.Methods Molecular cloning experiments,including PCR,agarose gel electrophoresis and homologous recombination were employed to generate an infectious cDNA clone(pFK-CHIKV-LN)derived from the isolated Caribbean Chikungunya strain(Caribbean strain,isolate M100,Genbank LN898083.1).The mRNA obtained from vitro transcription were transfected into BHK-21 to rescue the CHIKV.The viral titer was determined by 50%tissue culture infection dose(TCID50),with calculations performed using the Reed-Muench method.Western blot(WB)and real time quantitative polymerase chain reaction(RT-qPCR)were employed to assess the levels of viral protein and mRNA at various time points during infection.Results The full-length cDNA clone of CHIKV was successfully constructed,enabling the rescue of CHIKV progeny.RT-qPCR and WB confirmed the significant increasing expression levels of NS1 mRNA and proteins(NS3,E1)of BHK-21 during the infection process.Conclusion The full-length infectious clone of CHIKV has been constructed successfully,which provides a good tool for subsequent studies on the gene structure,protein function and pathogenic mechanism of CHIKV.

Objective To observe changes in voltage-dependent anion channel 3(VDAC3)in a mouse model of sepsis-induced myocardial injury and to explore its potential mechanism.Methods Twenty male C57BL/6J mice were divided randomly into a Sham group and Sepsis group,respectively(n=10 mice per group).Sepsis was induced by the cecal ligation and puncture(CLP).Serum levels of interleukin(IL)-6,tumor necrosis factor(TNF)-α,creatine kinase MB(CK-MB),and cardiac troponin T(cTnT)were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.Pathological changes in heart tissue were observed by hematoxylin and eosin staining.Structural and functional changes in the heart were evaluated by echocardiography.Changes in total glutathione,reduced glutathione(GSH),oxidized glutathione,and malondialdehyde(MDA)in heart tissue were detected by spectrophotometry.The morphological structure of mitochondria in mouse cardiomyocytes was observed by transmission electron microscopy.Expression levels of IL-6,IL-1β,VDAC3,glutathione peroxidase 4(GPX4),solute carrier family 7 member 11(SLC7A11),lipocalin-2(LCN2),and prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase 2(PTGS2)mRNA were detected by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction and the localization and expression of VDAC3 and GPX4 proteins in mouse heart tissue were detected by immunofluorescence staining.The correlations between VDAC3 mRNA and GPX4,SLC7A11,PTGS2,LCN2,IL-6,and IL-1β mRNA were analyzed.Expression levels of VDAC3,GPX4,and SLC7A11 proteins were detected by Western blot.Results IL-6,TNF-α,CK-MB,and cTnT levels were significantly higher in the Sepsis group compared with the Sham group(P＜0.05).In the Sepsis group,myocardial fibers were torn,the ventricular wall was thickened and edematous,the mitochondrial membrane was ruptured,and mitochondrial cristae were broken or absent.GSH levels were significantly reduced in the Sepsis group(P＜0.05)and the lipid peroxide MDA was increased in the Sepsis group(P＜0.05)compared with the Sham group.VDAC3,GPX4 and SLC7A11 mRNA and protein levels were all lower in the Sepsis group compared with the Sham group(P＜0.05),while expression levels of IL-6,IL-1β,LCN2,and PTGS2 mRNA were increased(P＜0.05).VDAC3 mRNA was positively correlated with GPX4 and SLC7A11 mRNA levels,and negatively correlated with LCN2,PTGS2,IL-6,and IL-1β.Conclusions VDAC3 expression decreases in myocardial injury,and it may participate in the occurrence of sepsis-induced myocardial injury by regulating ferroptosis.

Ischemic stroke is the most common type of stroke,characterized by a complex pathophysiology in which inflammato-ry responses play a pivotal role,significantly affecting patient outcomes.Following a stroke,the disruption of the blood-brain barrier facilitates interactions between the central nervous system(CNS)and the peripheral immune system,triggering a cascade of inflammatory responses that exacerbate ischemic brain injury.Microglia(MG),as the primary immune cells of the CNS,are highly sensitive to cerebral ischemia and interact with various peripheral immune cells to regulate the inflammatory response.For instance,neutrophils participate in early MG-mediated in-flammatory responses through the release of neutrophil extracel-lular traps;T cells interact with MG,exerting bidirectional effects on the spread of brain inflammation and tissue repair.Additionally,other immune cells such as B cells,monocytes/macrophages,and dendritic cells contribute to these processes through complex immune regulatory networks,influencing MG's inflammatory functions and its capacity for tissue repair.This re-view delves into the interaction mechanisms between MG and pe-ripheral immune cells,providing novel insights into the dynamic changes of post-stroke inflammation and potential directions for precision therapies aimed at modulating immune balance.

Purpose To investigate the expression of SNRPA in gastric cancer and its effect on the proliferation,migration and invasion of gastric cancer cells.Methods The expression of SNRPA in gastric cancer tissues was ana-lyzed using The Cancer Genome Atlas(TCGA)database.The level of SNRPA was detected by immunohistochemistry(EnVision method),and its relationship with clinicopathological parameters was analyzed.Western blot was used to detect the expression of SNRPA in 15 cases of fresh gastric cancer and paracancerous tissues.The expression of SNRPA in MGC-803 and GES-1 cells was detected by immunofluorescence staining.The effects of SNRPA expression on the proliferation,migration and invasion of gastric cancer cell lines were determined by RNA interference technology and cell function assays,and the expression levels of Cyclin D1 protein and EMT-related proteins(E-cadherin,N-cadher-in)were detected by Western blot.Results The expression level of SNRPA in gastric cancer tissues was significantly higher than that in normal gastric mucosal tissues(P＜0.05),with an area under the curve(AUC)of 0.902 for diag-nostic accuracy.The Kaplan-Meier survival curves showed that the survival time of the group with high expression of SNRPA was shorter.SNRPA expression correlated with tumor size,Ki67,infiltration depth,and p53 status(P＜0.05).Compared with the corresponding control group,SNRPA silencing inhibited the proliferation,migration and in-vasion ability of gastric cancer cells,accompanied by decreased Cyclin D1 and N-cadherin expression and increased E-cadherin expression(P＜0.05).Conclusion SNRPA expression is upregulated in gastric cancer tissues and cell lines,promoting the proliferation,migration,and invasion of gastric cancer cells,and may be a potential molecular marker for gastric cancer.
