Cell models can simulate a variety of life states and disease developments, including single cells, two-dimensional (2D) cell cultures, three-dimensional (3D) multicellular spheroids, and organoids. They are essential tools for addressing complex biochemical questions. With continuous advancements in biological and cellular analysis technologies, in vitro cellular models designed to answer scientific questions have evolved rapidly. Early in vitro models primarily relied on 2D systems, which failed to accurately replicate the complex cellular compositions and microenvironmental interactions observed in vivo, let alone support sophisticated investigations into cellular biological functions. Subsequent improvements in cell culture techniques led to the development of 3D culture-based models, such as cellular spheroids. The advent of pluripotent stem cell technology further advanced the development of organoid systems, which closely mimic human organ development. Compared to traditional 2D models, both 3D cellular models and organoids offer significant advantages, including personalization and enhanced physiological relevance, making them particularly suitable for exploring molecular mechanisms of disease progression, discovering novel cellular and biomolecular functions, and conducting related studies. The imaging analysis of common cellular models primarily employs labeling-based methods for in situ imaging of targeted genes, proteins, and small-molecule metabolites, enabling further research on cell types, states, metabolism, and drug efficacy. However, these approaches have drawbacks such as poor labeling specificity and complex experimental procedures. By using cells as experimental models, mass spectrometry technology combined with morphological analysis can reveal quantitative changes and spatial distributions of various biological substances at the spatiotemporal level, including metabolites, proteins, lipids, peptides, drugs, environmental pollutants, and metals. This allows for the investigation of cell-cell interactions, tumor microenvironments, and cellular bioinformational heterogeneity. The application of these cutting-edge imaging technologies generates vast amounts of cellular data, necessitating the development of rapid, efficient, and highly accurate image data algorithms for precise segmentation and identification of single cells, multi-organelle structures, rare cell subpopulations, and complex cellular morphologies. A critical focus lies in creating deep learning models and algorithms that enhance the accuracy of cellular visualization. At the same time, establishing more robust data integration tools is essential not only for analyzing and interpreting outputs but also for effectively uncovering the biological significance of spatially resolved mass spectrometry data. Developing a cell imaging platform with high versatility, operational stability, and specificity to enable data interoperability will significantly enhance its utility in clinical research, thereby advancing investigations into disease molecular mechanisms and supporting precision diagnostics and therapeutics. In contrast to genomic, transcriptomic, and proteomic information, the metabolome can rapidly respond to external stimuli and cellular physiological changes within a short timeframe. This rapid and precise reflection of ongoing cellular state alterations has positioned spatial metabolomics as a pivotal approach for exploring the molecular mechanisms underlying physiological and pathological processes in cells, tissues, and organisms. In this review, we summarize research on cell imaging based on mass spectrometry technologies, including the selection and preparation of cell models, morphological analysis of cell models, spatial omics techniques based on mass spectrometry, mass cytometry, and their applications. We also discuss the current challenges and propose future directions for development in this field.

Objective: To investigate the nutritional status and influencing factors among Tibetan and Mongolian children and adolescents aged 7-18 years in high-altitude regions, so as to provide evidence for early prevention and control of malnutrition in this population. Methods: From May to June 2022, a cluster sampling method was employed to recruit 1 019 Tibetan and Mongolian children and adolescents aged 7-18 years from two primary and secondary schools in Golmud City. Physical examinations, dietary frequency questionnaires, and physical activity assessments were conducted. Nutritional status was classified as obesity, combined overweight/obesity, underweight, or central obesity according to national standards including Screening for Overweight and Obesity among School-age Children and Adolescents, Screening Standard for Malnutrition of School-age Children and Adolescents, Blue Book on Obesity Prevention and Control in China. Chi-square tests, t-test and Logistic regression analyses were performed to identify factors associated with different nutritional statuses. Results: The detection rates of obesity, combined overweight/obesity, underweight, and central obesity were 8.0%, 18.1%, 5.2%, and 19.7%, respectively. The height of children and adolescents across all age groups was generally lower than the national standard values. Tibetan participants exhibited significantly lower height-for-age Z-scores (HAZ)(9-10, 13-17 years, Z =2.01, 2.78, 4.16, 3.38, 4.12, 3.63, 3.00) and BMI-for-age Z-scores (BAZ) compared to Mongolian participants ( Z =-2.95, -2.47, -2.31, -2.89, -2.14, -2.17)( P < 0.05 ). Multivariate Logistic regression revealed that Mongolian children and adolescents had higher risks of obesity ( OR =2.20) and combined overweight/obesity ( OR = 2.18 ) ( P <0.05). Additionally, insufficient moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) was associated with an increased risk of central obesity ( OR =1.48, P <0.05), compared with children and adolescents who meet the standard of MVPA. Conclusions The rates of overweight and obesity among Tibetan and Mongolian children and adolescents in Golmud City are higher, influenced by multiple factors. Nutrition interventions and physical activity strategies tailored to ethnic characteristics should be implemented, with emphasis on promoting MVPA to improve nutritional outcomes in this population.

Vascular calcification is a highly regulated process of ectopic calcification in cardiovascular system while no effective intervention can be clinically performed up to date.As vascular calcification undergoes a common regulatory mechanism within bone formation,bone morphogenetic protein 7(BMP-7)main-tains contractile phenotype of vascular smooth muscle cells and further inhibits vascular calcification via promoting the process of osteoblast differentiation,reducing ectopic calcification pressure by increasing bone formation and reducing bone resorption.This work systematically reviews the role of BMP-7 in vascular calcifi-cation and the possible mechanism,and their current clinical application as well.The current proceedings may help develope early diagnostic strategy and therapeutic treatment with BMP-7 as a new molecular marker and potential drug target.The expec-tation could achieve early prevention and intervention of vascular calcification and improve poor prognosis on patients.

Aim To investigate the mechanisms of Chaijin JieYu Anshen formula modulating the depres-sive behaviors and the synaptic plasticity of hippocam-pal neurons in insomnia-concomitant depression rats based on the histone deacetylase 5(HDAC5)/myocyte enhancer factor 2C(MEF2C)pathway.Methods A rat model of insomnia-concomitant depression was es-tablished by PCPA injection combined with chronic un-predictable mild stress(CUMS),and the experiment was divided into the control group,the model group,the high,medium and low dose group of Chaijin JieYu Anshen formula,and the positive drug group.The de-pression of rats was evaluated by sugar-water prefer-ence test,open field test and morris water maze.The levels of 5-hydroxytryptamine(5-HT)and dopamine(DA)in serum were measured by enzyme linked im-munosorbent assay(ELISA).The pathological damage of hippocampal neurons was observed by HE staining and Nissl staining.The damage of dendritic spines of hippocampal neurons was observed by Golgi staining,and the levels of HDAC5,MEF2C,postsynaptic densi-ty-95(PSD-95)and synaptophysin 1(SYN1)in hip-pocampus were measured by Western blot,immunohis-tochemistry and immunofluorescence.Results Com-pared with the model group,the Chaijin JieYu Anshen formula could increase the sugar-water preference rate of the model rats,reduce the immobility time in the open field experiment,increase the total activity dis-tance,shorten the evasion latency in the localization navigation experiment,and prolong the residence time in the quadrant where the platform was located in the space exploration experiment(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).Moreover,the Chaijin JieYu Anshen formula improved the hippocampal neuron and dendritic spine damage and increase the dendritic branch length and dendritic spine density of hippocampal neurons(P＜0.01,P＜0.01),restore the serum levels of 5-HT and DA in insomnia-concomitant depression rats(P＜0.05,P＜0.01),down-regulate the HDAC5 protein,and up-regulate the expression of MEF2C,PSD-95,and SYN1 protein(P＜0.05,P＜0.01 or P＜0.001).Conclusions Chaijin JieYu Anshen formula may alle-viate the depression-like behavior of model rats by re-ducing the expression of HDAC5 protein,thus deregu-lating the inhibition of transcription factor MEF2C,promoting the expression of PSD-95 and SNY1 protein,and exerting a protective effect on hippocampal neurons and synapses.

Aim To explore the effect of quercetin(Que)on ferroptosis and the potential mechanisms in an Erastin-induced ferroptosis model in chondrocytes.Methods A model of Erastin-induced ferroptosis was established in C28/I2 chondrocytes.Cells were treated with different concentrations of Que.Cell viability and cytotoxicity were assessed by MTT and LDH assays.The expression levels of Prdx6 and ferroptosis-related proteins ACSL4 and GPX4 in chondrocytes were deter-mined by Western blot.Lipid ROS production in chon-drocytes was measured by flow cytometry,while the changes in mitochondrial membrane potential were de-tected by RH123 staining.Prdx6 mRNA expression in chondrocytes was quantified by RT-qPCR.The chan-ges in the expression of the ferroptosis-related proteins ACSL4 and GPX4 were detected by immunofluores-cence staining.Results Compared to the Erastin-in-duced ferroptosis model group,Que significantly im-proved the viability of C28/I2 chondrocytes and re-duced cell cytotoxicity.It decreased the expression of the ferroptosis-related protein ACSL4 and increased the expression of GPX4.Que also inhibited the production of lipid ROS in chondrocytes and strengthened their mitochondrial membrane potential.In addition,the ex-pression of Prdx6 was significantly reduced in the Eras-tin group compared to the control group,while Que treatment upregulated the expression of Prdx6.Mean-while,the inhibitory effect of Que on chondrocyte fer-roptosis was reduced by the use of MJ33,an inhibitor of Prdx6.Conclusion Que can inhibit Erastin-induced ferroptosis of C28/I2 chondrocytes,possibly by upregu-lating Prdx6,and thus play a protective role in chon-drocytes.

Objective To investigate the efficacy of antibiotic cement column combined with iliac bone graft in the treat-ment of open fracture with bone defect of distal femur.Methods From October 2014 to March 2021,16 patients of open frac-ture bone defect of distal femur were treated with antibiotic bone cement column and iliac bone graft,including 12 males and 4 females.The age ranged from 28 to 68 years old.There were 11 cases of traffic accident injury,5 cases of falling injury,3 cases as Gustilo type Ⅰ,5 cases as type Ⅱ and 8 cases as type Ⅲ A.AO classification was used:9 cases of C2 type and 7 cases of C3 type.The time from injury to final bone grafting ranged from 4 to 119 days.The length of bone defect ranged from 2 tol0 cm.Fractures healing time,complications and knee function Merchan score were recorded.Results All the 16 patients were fol-lowed up from 9 to 29 months.The incisions of 16 patients healed in one stage without postoperative infection,plate fracture,limb shortening and valgus and varus deformity.The healing time randed from 4 to 10 months.Knee joint function according to the Merchant scoring standard,showed that 8 cases were excellent,4 cases were good,3 cases were fair,and 1 case was poor.Conclusion The use of antibiotic bone cement column combined with iliac bone graft in the treatment of open and complex bone defects of distal femur is an effective surgical method to prevent infection,assist fracture reduction,increase fixation strength and significantly reduce the amount of bone grafting.

Objective To monitor the susceptibility of clinical isolates to antimicrobial agents in tertiary hospitals in major regions of China in 2022.Methods Clinical isolates from 58 hospitals in China were tested for antimicrobial susceptibility using a unified protocol based on disc diffusion method or automated testing systems.Results were interpreted using the 2022 Clinical &Laboratory Standards Institute(CLSI)breakpoints.Results A total of 318 013 clinical isolates were collected from January 1,2022 to December 31,2022,of which 29.5％were gram-positive and 70.5％were gram-negative.The prevalence of methicillin-resistant strains in Staphylococcus aureus,Staphylococcus epidermidis and other coagulase-negative Staphylococcus species(excluding Staphylococcus pseudintermedius and Staphylococcus schleiferi)was 28.3％,76.7％and 77.9％,respectively.Overall,94.0％of MRSA strains were susceptible to trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole and 90.8％of MRSE strains were susceptible to rifampicin.No vancomycin-resistant strains were found.Enterococcus faecalis showed significantly lower resistance rates to most antimicrobial agents tested than Enterococcus faecium.A few vancomycin-resistant strains were identified in both E.faecalis and E.faecium.The prevalence of penicillin-susceptible Streptococcus pneumoniae was 94.2％in the isolates from children and 95.7％in the isolates from adults.The resistance rate to carbapenems was lower than 13.1％in most Enterobacterales species except for Klebsiella,21.7％-23.1％of which were resistant to carbapenems.Most Enterobacterales isolates were highly susceptible to tigecycline,colistin and polymyxin B,with resistance rates ranging from 0.1％to 13.3％.The prevalence of meropenem-resistant strains decreased from 23.5％in 2019 to 18.0％in 2022 in Pseudomonas aeruginosa,and decreased from 79.0％in 2019 to 72.5％in 2022 in Acinetobacter baumannii.Conclusions The resistance of clinical isolates to the commonly used antimicrobial agents is still increasing in tertiary hospitals.However,the prevalence of important carbapenem-resistant organisms such as carbapenem-resistant K.pneumoniae,P.aeruginosa,and A.baumannii showed a downward trend in recent years.This finding suggests that the strategy of combining antimicrobial resistance surveillance with multidisciplinary concerted action works well in curbing the spread of resistant bacteria.

Objective:To explore the latent profile types of capability-opportunity-motivation-behavior in stroke patients and analyze the influencing factors of different latent profiles.Methods:From January to October 2023, totally 596 stroke patients from the Neurology Department of five ClassⅢ Grade A hospitals in Henan Province were selected by stratified random sampling. The patients were surveyed using a general information questionnaire, the Stroke Prevention Knowledge Questionnaire (SPKQ), the Social Support Rating Scale (SSRS), the WHO's Quality of Life Questionnaire- Brief Version (WHOQOL-BREF), the Short Form Health Belief Model Scale (SF-HBMS), and the Health Promoting Lifestyle ProfileⅡ (HPLPⅡ). Latent profile analysis was used to classify the capability-opportunity-motivation-behavior characteristics of stroke patients, and multiple logistic regression was conducted to explore the influencing factors of different latent profiles.Results:Three latent profiles of capability-opportunity-motivation-behavior in stroke patients were identified, including low capability-opportunity-motivation-behavior with high health beliefs (32.4%, 193/596), moderate capability-opportunity-motivation-behavior with insufficient health beliefs (47.5%, 283/596), and high capability-opportunity-motivation-behavior with lack of social support (20.1%, 120/596). Multiple logistic regression analysis showed that educational level, smoking history, family history, body mass index, and Charlson Comorbidity Index score were influencing factors of different latent profiles ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:Stroke patients exhibit distinct classifications of capability-opportunity-motivation-behavior. Targeted interventions should be conducted based on the characteristics of each category to improve health behavior management outcomes in patients.

Objective:To explore the mediating effect of rumination between self-perceived burden (SPB) and stigma in stroke patients, so as to provide theoretical basis for the development of targeted nursing interventions in clinical practice.Methods:In September 2022, cluster sampling was used to select 1 126 stroke patients admitted to Department of Neurology of five ClassⅢ Grade A hospitals in Henan Province as subjects. General Information Questionnaire, Self-Perceived Burden Scale (SPBS), Stroke Stigma Scale (SSS), and Chinese Version of Event Related Rumination Inventory (C-ERRI) were used to investigate stroke patients. Pearson correlation analysis was used to explore the correlation between SPB, rumination, and stigma. AMOS 28.0 software was used to establish the structural equation model, and Bootstrap method was used to test the mediating effect.Results:A total of 1 126 questionnaires were distributed, and 1 026 valid questionnaires were collected, with a valid response rate of 91.12% (1 026/1 126). SPBS score of 1 026 stroke patients was (28.68±8.32), the SSS score was (40.53±9.48) and the C-ERRI score was (25.43±12.62). Pearson correlation analysis showed that SPB in stroke patients was positively correlated with stigma and rumination ( P<0.01), and rumination was positively correlated with stigma ( P<0.01). Bootstrap mediating effect test showed that rumination partially mediated the relationship between SPB and stigma in stroke patients, accounting for 55.15% of the total effect. Conclusions:SPB of stroke patients both directly affect stigma and indirectly affect stigma through rumination. Clinical nursing workers should promptly evaluate patients' SPB, pay attention to the mediating role of rumination, develop effective psychological intervention programs, implement personalized and targeted nursing measures, relieve patients' stigma, and improve treatment and rehabilitation compliance.
