Objective:
To investigate the emotional and behavioral problems among preschool children and the correlations with maternal parenting competence and family rearing environment, so as to provide a scientific basis and practical guidance for the physical and mental health development of preschool children.
Methods:
In June 2025, 660 preschool children aged 3-6 years old were selected from 10 kindergartens in Hefei, Anqing, and Tongling in Anhui Province by using a stratified cluster random sampling method. A questionnaire survey was conducted among all parents of preschool children using the Parent version of the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire, the Child Family Rearing Environment Scale, and the Chinese version of the Parenting Sense of Competence Scale. Pearson correlation analysis and multiple linear regression analysis were used to analyze the related factors of emotional and behavioral problems among preschool children. SPSS macro program Process 4.1 and Bootstrap method were used to test the mediating effect of family parenting environment between emotional and behavioral problems among preschool children and maternal parenting competence.
Results:
The detection rate of emotional and behavioral problems among preschool children was 20.15%. The total scores of family rearing environment and maternal parenting competence were negatively correlated with emotional and behavioral problems among preschool children ( r =-0.45,-0.79), and the total score of family rearing environment was positively correlated with the total score of maternal parenting competence ( r =0.43) (all P <0.01). Multiple linear regression showed that, after controlling whether being only child, parents educational level, registered residence location and other variables, family rearing environment, self efficacy and satisfaction were all negative predictors of emotional and behavioral problems among preschool children ( B =-0.07, -0.42, -0.42, all P <0.01). The mediation effect results showed that maternal parenting competence could positively predict the family rearing environment ( B =0.75), while maternal parenting competence and family rearing environment could both negatively predict emotional and behavioral problems among preschool children ( B =-0.49, -0.06 ) (all P <0.05). The Bootstrap sampling method test results showed that the effect value of the indirect effect of maternal parenting competence on emotional and behavioral problems through the family rearing environment was -0.04, and the effect proportion was 8.21 %.
Conclusion
Preschool children with a better family rearing environment and stronger maternal parenting competence are less likely to have emotional and behavioral problems, among which the family rearing environment has a mediating effect.

ObjectiveTo observe the effect of Weichang'an prescription-containing serum on ferroptosis of human gastric cancer cells and explore the possible mechanism. MethodsSD rats were administrated with 18, 36, 72 g·kg-1·d-1 Weichang'an prescription by gavage for preparation of serum samples containing different doses of Weichang'an prescription, which were then used to treat MKN-45 cells. The cell proliferation was examined by the cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8). In addition, inhibitors of apoptosis, necroptosis, and ferroptosis were added, and the survival of the cells treated with the serum samples was observed. The fluorescent probe dichlorodihydrofluorescein diacetate (DCF-DA) and the lipid peroxidation sensor C11-BODIPY were employed to detect the intracellular levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and lipid peroxidation, respectively. The levels of ferrous ion (Fe2+), glutathione (GSH), and malondialdehyde (MDA) were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Real-time PCR and Western blotting were employed to determine the expression of nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2), aldo-keto reductase family 1 member B1 (AKR1B1), glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4), acyl-CoA synthetase long-chain family member 4 (ACSL4), signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3), and mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK). ResultsCompared with the blank group, Weichang'an prescription-containing serum decreased the viability of MKN-45 cells (P<0.05, P<0.01) in a time- and dose-dependent manner. Compared with the Weichang'an prescription group, the apoptosis inhibitor+Weichang'an prescription group and the ferroptosis inhibitor+Weichang'an prescription group showed increased cell viability (P<0.05, P<0.01). Compared with the blank group, Weichang'an prescription elevated the levels of ROS, lipid peroxidation, and intracellular Fe2+ and MDA (P<0.05, P<0.01) and lowered the level of GSH (P<0.05, P<0.01) in a dose-dependent manner. Compared with the blank group, Weichang'an prescription down-regulated the mRNA and protein levels of Nrf2, AKR1B1, and GPX4 (P<0.05, P<0.01) and up-regulated the mRNA and protein levels of ACSL4 (P<0.05, P<0.01) in a dose-dependent manner. Compared with the blank group, Weichang'an prescription down-regulated the protein levels of p-STAT3 and p-ERK (P<0.05, P<0.01) in a dose-dependent manner. ConclusionThe Weichang'an prescription-containing serum can promote the ferroptosis and inhibit the proliferation of MKN-45 cells by regulating the STAT3 and MAPK pathways.

Intraoperative cell salvage (IOCS) has been widely applied as an important blood conservation measure in surgical operations. However, there is currently a lack of clinical practice guidelines for the implementation of IOCS in patients with malignant tumors. This report aims to provide clinicians with recommendations on the use of IOCS in patients with malignant tumors based on the review and assessment of the existed evidence. Data were derived from databases such as PubMed, Embase, the Cochrane Library and Wanfang. The guideline development team formulated recommendations based on the quality of evidence, balance of benefits and harms, patient preferences, and health economic assessments. This study constructed seven major clinical questions. The main conclusions of this guideline are as follows: 1) Compared with no perioperative allogeneic blood transfusion (NPABT), perioperative allogeneic blood transfusion (PABT) leads to a more unfavorable prognosis in cancer patients (Recommended); 2) Compared with the transfusion of allogeneic blood or no transfusion, IOCS does not lead to a more unfavorable prognosis in cancer patients (Recommended); 3) The implementation of IOCS in cancer patients is economically feasible (Recommended); 4) Leukocyte depletion filters (LDF) should be used when implementing IOCS in cancer patients (Strongly Recommended); 5) Irradiation treatment of autologous blood to be reinfused can be used when implementing IOCS in cancer patients (Recommended); 6) A careful assessment of the condition of cancer patients (meeting indications and excluding contraindications) should be conducted before implementing IOCS (Strongly Recommended); 7) Informed consent from cancer patients should be obtained when implementing IOCS, with a thorough pre-assessment of the patient's condition and the likelihood of blood loss, adherence to standardized internally audited management procedures, meeting corresponding conditions, and obtaining corresponding qualifications (Recommended). In brief, current evidence indicates that IOCS can be implemented for some malignant tumor patients who need allogeneic blood transfusion after physician full evaluation, and LDF or irradiation should be used during the implementation process.

Purpose To investigate the clinical significance of Gasdermin B(GSDMB)in ovarian cancer and its relationship with immune infiltration,aiming to explore novel biomarkers for immunotherapy.Methods Gene expres-sion matrix,somatic mutations,somatic copy number alterations(SCNA),and clinical data were obtained from the The Cancer Genome Atlas(TCGA)database.Copy number variation(CNV)analysis was performed using the GISTIC algorithm,and the CIBERSORT algorithm was applied to quantify the relative abundance of 22 immune cell types in the tumor microenvironment.Protein-protein interaction(PPI)network analysis was conducted to identify GSDMB-associ-ated interacting proteins.Additionally,multiplex immunofluorescence was used to verify the spatial distribution differ-ences of GSDMB protein in clinical ovarian cancer samples with different immune phenotypes and its interaction with immune cells.Results The expression level of the GSDMB gene was significantly higher in adjacent non-cancerous tissues than in tumor tissues(P<0.001).Patients with high GSDMB expression exhibited elevated levels of immune chemokines(such as CXCL9 and CXCL10,P<0.01)and tumor-killing lymphocytes(the proportion of CD8+T cell was significantly higher in the high-expression group than in the low-expression group,P<0.001).CNV analysis re-vealed that GSDMB copy number alterations significantly influenced immune cell infiltration:patients with GSDMB cop-y number amplification had decreased infiltration levels of CD4+T cells and dendritic cells(P<0.05),while those with deep deletion of GSDMB had significantly reduced infiltration levels of CD8+T cells and neutrophils(P<0.01).PPI network analysis indicated that GSDMB might interact with key immune molecules,including IL-37,IL-18BP,IL-33,and IL-2(Pearson correlation coefficient r>0.6,P<0.001).Multiplex immunofluorescence analysis demonstra-ted that tumors with high GSDMB expression were more likely to exhibit an immune-inflamed phenotype(52.6%),while tumors in the low-expression group were predominantly immune-desert type(47.3%).Immunotherapy cohort a-nalysis suggested that GSDMB could serve as a potential predictive biomarker for immunotherapy responsiveness,with high predictive efficacy in multiple immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy cohorts targeting PD-1,PD-L1,and CTLA4(AUC>0.8).Conclusion GSDMB plays a crucial role in reshaping the tumor microenvironment in ovarian cancer and may serve as a novel sensitizing target for immunotherapy.

Objective The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of the interaction between diabetes mellitus and anxiety on the risk of developing postherpetic neuralgia in patients with herpes zoster(HZ).Methods The clinical data of 206 HZ patients admitted to our hospital from December 2020 to December 2024 were retrospectively collected.All patients were followed up for 6 months after treatment and then divided into the occurrence group(n=47)and the non-occurrence group(n=159)based on whether postherpetic neuralgia occurred.The clinical data between the two groups were compared.Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used to explore the relationship between diabetes mellitus,anxiety and the risk of neuralgia in HZ patients.The Excel spreadsheet developed by Andersson was used to calculate the relative excess risk due to interaction(RERI),attributable proportion due to interaction(AP),and synergy index(S).Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curves were plotted to analyze the value of each indicator alone and in combination in predicting the risk of neuralgia in HZ patients.Results There were statistically significant differences between the two groups in terms of age,coexisting T2DM,skin lesion area,Generalised Anxiety Disorder-7(GAD-7)score,and Patient Health Questionnaire-9(PHQ-9)score(P<0.05).Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that both T2DM and GAD-7 scores were independent risk factors for neuropathic pain in HZ patients(P<0.05).Without adjusting for other variables,there was a multiplicative interaction between T2DM and GAD-7 scores≥5(P<0.05).However,after adjusting for confounding factors such as age,skin lesion area,and HAMD scores,no multiplicative interaction was observed between the two(P>0.05).There was an additive interaction between T2DM and a GAD-7 score≥5;when both were present,the risk of neuropathic pain in HZ patients was significantly higher than in patients without T2DM and a GAD score<5.The risk of neuropathic pain in HZ patients with both conditions was higher than the sum of the risks from either condition alone,with a synergistic effect 23.05 times greater than the sum of the effects of either condition alone;When both conditions coexist,81.70%of the risk of neuropathic pain is attributable to their synergistic effect;the combined predictive value of diabetes and anxiety for the risk of neuropathic pain in HZ patients is higher than that of either condition alone(ZT2DM vs.combination=2.230,ZGAD-7 score vs.combination=3.088,P<0.05).Conclusion Diabetes mellitus and anxiety have an additive interaction.When both are present,the risk of neuralgia in HZ patients increases,and combined assessment can provide a certain reference for predicting neuralgia in HZ patients.
