Objective: To analyze the trends of the frequency of meat, egg, and milk consumption among rural primary and junior high school students in central and western China covered by the Nutrition Improvement Program for Rural Compulsory Education Students (NIPRCES) from 2015 to 2023, so as to provide basis for formulating more targeted nutrition intervention policies and health education strategies. Methods: Using data from six rounds of monitoring and evaluation (2015-2021 and 2023), the study included 323 870 students from grade 3 to 9 across 22 provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities) in central and western China. The consumption frequencies of meat, egg, and milk over the past week were collected via questionnaires. The Cochran-Armitage trend test was used to analyze temporal trends, and multivariable Logistic regression models were employed to analyze factors associated with the frequency of meat, egg and milk consumption and to test for interaction effects between the year and gender, region, and grade level. Results: From 2015 to 2023, the proportion of students consuming meat, egg, and milk ≥1 time/day increased from 23.20 %, 10.71%, and 0.74% to 35.53%, 22.09%, and 26.63%, respectively. Trend tests indicated a significant upward trend for the daily intake of all three food categories for meat, egg and milk over the years ( Z =67.18, 64.90, 93.14, all P <0.01). Multivariable Logistic regression analysis showed that the daily meat intake was lower in the central region than in the western region ( OR=0.77, 95%CI =0.76-0.78), whereas the daily intake of eggs ( OR=1.19, 95%CI =1.17-1.22) and milk ( OR= 1.27 , 95%CI =1.24-1.29) was higher in the central region (all P <0.05). Compared with grade 3-4 students, junior high school students had lower daily intake of meat, eggs, and milk≥1 time/day ( OR =0.95, 0.77, 0.77, all P <0.05), with a declining trend as grade increased. Girls also had lower daily intake of meat, eggs, and milk ≥1 time/day than boys ( OR =0.95，0.93，0.91, all P < 0.05). Significant interactions were observed between year and region, as well as between year and grade (all P <0.05). Conclusion From 2015 to 2023, the NIPRCES improved the intake level of among rural students, but the situation of relatively insufficient intake of egg and milk among females, junior high school students and those in the western region still exists.

ObjectiveTo explore the effect of individualized intermittent catheterization (IC) guided by 24-hour dynamic urine volume monitoring on bladder function and urinary tract infection complications in patients with neurogenic bladder (NB). MethodsA total of 50 NB patients admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from August, 2025 to June, 2026 were enrolled. The patients were randomly divided into control group (n = 25) and experimental group (n = 25). The control group received routine timed/empirical IC, and the experimental group adopted dynamic urine volume-guided individualized IC, for a week. Urine leukocyte positive rate, urine bacterial positive rate, frequencies of single catheterized volume > 400 mL, 24-hour catheterization and 24-hour urine leakage were recorded before and after intervention. ResultsAfter intervention, the positive rates of urine leukocytes and urine bacteria were lower in the experimental group than in the control group (χ² > 5.094, P < 0.05), while the frequencies of single catheterized volume > 400 mL, 24-hour catheterization and 24-hour urine leakage were less (t > 2.078, P < 0.05). ConclusionThe individualized IC guided by 24-hour dynamic urine volume monitoring can accurately match individual urine secretion rhythm, reduce over-distension of bladder and unnecessary catheterization, and lower the incidence of urine leakage and urinary tract infection.

Objective:To assess the feasibility and efficacy of transperineal laser ablation(TPLA)with single laser fiber in treating benign prostatic obstruction(BPO).Methods:From April 2021 to March 2024,a total of 13 BPO patients were selected from Beijing Friendship Hospital.TPLA was performed using a single laser fiber,which was guided by transrectal biplane ultrasound.The single laser fiber was used to undergo TPLA under the guidance of trans-rectal dual-plane ultrasound.The intraoperative time,ablation time,energy consumption,indwelling time of catheter,and complications were observed.The postoperative 6 months was chosen as the cut-off point of follow-up,and the pre and postoperative changes of international prostate symptom score(IPSS),quality of life index(QoL),prostate volume(PV),residual urine volume(RUV)and the maximum urine flow rate(Qmax)were compared.Results:All 13 patients successfully underwent TPLA with single laser fiber.The average operation time was(55.1±18.3)min,and the average ablation time was(16.3±1.7)min,and average energy consumption was(3951.6±459.7)J,and the median value of indwelling time of catheter was 7(7,10)days.The number of postoperative complication was 2 cases,and both them belonged to Clavien-Dindo grade II complication.At the postoperative 6th month,the IPSS,QoL,PV,Qmax and RUV of all patients were improved,all of which were better than preoperative these indicators,and the differences were significant(t=12.102,-3.228,-3.181,-2.581,-2.936,P<0.05).Conclusion:The application of single laser fiber in conducting TPLA operation is feasibility at technical aspect,and it can achieve the therapeutic goals of improving patients'symptoms and enhancing their quality of life.Although its operational time is slightly longer than that of using multiple fibers simultaneously,it can effectively reduce the cost of expenditure for consumables.

Objective To explore the influences of long-chain noncoding RNA DHRS4-AS1 (lncRNA DHRS4-AS1) on the proliferation, invasion, migration, and apoptosis of thyroid cancer (TC) cells by regulating the microRNA-221-3p (miR-221-3p)/suppressor of cytokine signaling 3 (SOCS3) signaling axis. Methods Quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) was applied to detect the expression of lncRNA DHRS4-AS1, miR-221-3p, and SOCS3 mRNA in TC cell lines, and the optimal cell line was selected for subsequent experiments. FTC-133 cells were divided into five groups: control group, pcDNA-NC group, DHRS4-AS1 group, DHRS4-AS1 combined with agomir NC group, and DHRS4-AS1 combined with miR-221-3p-agomir group. Transfection efficiency was assessed using qRT-PCR. Dual luciferase reporter assays were applied to verify the targeting interaction between lncRNA DHRS4-AS1, SOCS3, and miR-221-3p. Western blot analysis was used to detect the expression of SOCS3 in FTC-133 cells. EdU method was used to measure cell proliferation. Flow cytometry was applied to measure the apoptosis of FTC-133 cells. Scratch experiment was applied to measure the migration of FTC-133 cells. Transwell chamber was applied to detect the invasion of FTC-133 cells. Nude mouse transplantation tumor experiment was used to observe the effect of lncRNA DHRS4-AS1 on the growth of TC transplantation tumors. Results Dual luciferase reporter assays showed a targeting relationship between lncRNA DHRS4-AS1, miR-221-3p, and SOCS3. LncRNA DHRS4-AS1 and SOCS3 were downregulated and miR-221-3p was upregulated in FTC-133 cells. Overexpression of lncRNA DHRS4-AS1 inhibited proliferation, migration, and invasion of FTC-133 cells, while inducing apoptosis. Conversely, miR-221-3p overexpression reversed these inhibitory effects, and suppressed the apoptosis. Nude mouse transplantation experiment observed that overexpression of lncRNA DHRS4-AS1 resulted in a decrease in tumor tissue quality and volume, and a decrease in miR-221-3p expression and an increase in SOCS3 expression. Conclusion LncRNA DHRS4-AS1 is downregulated in FTC-133 cells. Overexpression of lncRNA DHRS4-AS1 can inhibit the proliferation, invasion, and migration of TC cells and induce apoptosis by regulating the miR-221-3p/SOCS3 signaling axis.

Cannabidiol (CBD), a non-psychoactive cannabinoid, shows great promise in treating methamphetamine (METH) addiction. Nonetheless, the molecular target and the mechanism through which CBD treats METH addiction remain unexplored. Herein, CBD was shown to counteract METH-induced locomotor sensitization and conditioned place preference. Additionally, CBD mitigated the adverse effects of METH, such as cristae loss, a decline in ATP content, and a reduction in membrane potential. Employing an activity-based protein profiling approach, a target fishing strategy was used to uncover CBD's direct target. ATP5A1, a subunit of ATP synthase, was identified and validated as a CBD target. Moreover, CBD demonstrated the ability to ameliorate METH-induced ubiquitination of ATP5A1 via the D376 residue, thereby reversing the METH-induced reduction of ATP5A1 and promoting the assembly of ATP synthase. Pharmacological inhibition of the ATP efflux channel pannexin 1, blockade of ATP hydrolysis by a CD39 inhibitor, and blocking the adenosine A1 receptor (A1R) all attenuated the therapeutic benefits of CBD in mitigating METH-induced behavioral sensitization and CPP. Moreover, the RNA interference of ATP5A1 in the ventral tegmental area resulted in the reversal of CBD's therapeutic efficacy against METH addiction. Collectively, these data show that ATP5A1 is a target for CBD to inhibit METH-induced addiction behaviors through the ADO-A1R signaling pathway.

OBJECTIVES: To investigate the role of long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) HClnc1 in regulating proliferation, invasion, and migration of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cells and the regulatory mechanism. METHODS: HClnc1 expression levels in liver cancer tissues were analyzed using data from the TCGA database. BrdU incorporation, plate cloning, and transwell assays were employed to examine the effects of HClnc1 silencing/overexpression and/or ODC1 silencing on proliferation, invasion, and migration of liver cancer cells. The effects of HClnc1 silencing on ODC1 protein and mRNA expression in the liver cancer cells were analyzed using qRT-PCR and Western blotting. The activity of ODC1 promoter was analyzed using a dual luciferase reporter gene assay. Pull-down experiment, mass spectrometry analysis, and chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) assay were used for identification of HClnc1-binding proteins and their interactions. Protein interactions with the ODC1 promoter region and their binding efficiencies were investigated using RNA interference and ChIP analysis. RESULTS: HClnc1 was significantly overexpressed in HCC tissues. In liver cancer cells, HClnc1 silencing significantly inhibited cell proliferation, invasion, and migration, while HClnc1 overexpression promoted these behaviors. ODC1 silencing also suppressed malignant behaviors of liver cancer cells, and counteracted the effects of HClnc1 overexpression. Interference of HClnc1 obviously inhibited ODC1 promoter activity. RBBP5 and KAT2B proteins were identified to bind simultaneously with HClnc1. HClnc1 overexpression upregulated ODC1 protein expression, while interference of RBBP5 or KAT2B downregulated ODC1 protein expression and blocked HClnc1-induced upregulation of ODC1 protein. Both RBBP5 and KAT2B could directly bind to ODC1 promoter region; knocking out KAT2B or RBBP5 reduced the binding efficiency, while knocking out HClnc1 reduced the binding of both RBBP5 and KAT2B to ODC1 promoter region. CONCLUSIONS By targeting the RBBP5/KAT2B epigenetic modification complex, HClnc1 increases ODC1 promoter activity to enhance ODC1 transcription and promote the proliferation and migration of liver cancer cells.

OBJECTIVES: To investigate the effects of Naoluo Xintong Decoction (NLXTD) on proliferation of rat brain microvascular endothelial cells (BMECs) after oxygen-glucose deprivation/reoxygenation (OGD/R) injury and role of the HIF-1α/VEGF pathway in mediating its effect. METHODS: Using a BMEC model of OGD/R, we tested the effects of 10% NLXTD-medicated rat serum, alone or in combination with 2ME2 or 10% NAKL, on cell proliferation, migration, tube-forming ability and permeability using CCK-8 assay, Transwell chamber assay, tube formation assay and permeability assay. Cellular expressions of VEGF and Notch were detected using ELISA and laser confocal immunofluorescence analysis, and the expressions of HIF-1α, VEGFR2, Notch1, ERK and P-ERK1/2 proteins were detected with Western blotting. RESULTS: OGD/R injury significantly decreased viability of BMECs. NLXTD treatment of the cells with OGD/R could significantly promoted cell proliferation, migration and tube formation ability, but these effects were strongly attenuated by application of 2ME2. NLXTD treatment also significantly increased the percentages of VEGF- and Notch-positive cells in the cell models and obviously enhanced the expression levels of HIF-1α, VEGFR2, Notch1 and P-ERK1/2. CONCLUSIONS NLXTD promotes proliferation, migration, and tube formation of rat BMECs after OGD/R injury possibly by activating the HIF-1α/VEGF signaling pathway.
