Objective: To understand the impact of left behind experience on the mental health of secondary vocational school students, so as to provide theoretical basis for the psychological health education of secondary vocational school students. Methods: From September to December in 2019, a total of 3 401 students from Duyun, Guiding and Pingtang County were selected by multi stage cluster random sampling method. Self designed questionnaire and Symptom Check List-90(SCL-90) were used to investigate mental health status. A total of 1 415 left behind students and 1 415 non left behind students were matched by using propensity score matching (PSM). Wilcoxon test and Logistic regression analysis were conducted. Results: Before the matching of propensity score, there were statistically significant differences in the distribution of family structure, mother s educational level, family residence,family harmony and children s past health among the students with or without left behind experience ( χ 2=28.17, 52.40, 96.31, 29.75 , 19.10, P <0.05). After the matching, there were no statistically significant differences in the distribution of the above variables among the students with or without left behind experience ( χ 2=0.02-4.32, P >0.05). Before the matching of propensity scores, there were significant differences in the scores of 10 dimensions of SCL-90, including somatization (1.67,1.58), interpersonal sensitivity (2.00,1.89), anxiety (1.90,1.70), obsessive compulsive symptoms (2.20, 2.10), depression (2.00, 1.85), hostility (1.83, 1.67), terror (1.85, 1.71), paranoia (1.83, 1.67), psychotic (1.70, 1.60) and other (1.85, 1.71) dimensions among secondary vocational school students with or without left behind experience ( Z=-5.15 to -2.84, P <0.05). After propensity score matching, there were significant differences in scores remained only in three factors for interpersonal sensitivity [(2.00(1.56,2.67)，2.00(1.44,2.56)], paranoia [1.83(1.33,2.50)，1.83(1.33,2.33)] and psychoticism [1.70(1.30,2.30)，1.70(1.20,2.20)] in SCL- 90 among secondary vocational students with or without left behind experience ( Z=-2.45, -2.12, -2.23, P <0.05). Conclusion The impact of left behind experience on the mental health of vocational school students is mainly reflected in interpersonal sensitivity, paranoia, and psychoticism, which should be identified as key areas of psychological education for secondary vocational school students.

Objective To explore the value of high-frequency ultrasound in the detection of metastatic hepatocellular carcinoma and displaying lesion characteristics. Methods A total of 38 paitients with hepatocellular carcinoma satellite lesions within 40 mm of subcutaneous tissue were underwent low-frequency (1-5 MHz) and high-frequency (6-9 MHz) ultrasound. Detection rates and ultrasonic features were compared. Results High-frequency grayscale ultrasound had a higher detection rate (71.1% vs. 36.8%, P＜0.001). Subgroup analysis showed higher detection rates with chemotherapy history (88.9% vs. 33.3%, P＝0.002), fatty liver (71.9% vs 31.3%, P＜0.001) or superficial lesion (within 20 mm, 76.5% vs 41.2%, P＝0.031). High-frequency ultrasound also showed clearer margins (P＝0.004) and more arterial-phase rim enhancement (P＝0.007). Conclusions 6-9 MHz ultrasound detects metastatic hepatocellular carcinoma, especially superficial lesions, more effectively than 1-5 MHz ultrasound and better visualizes characteristics.

Objective: To understand the dynamic temporal evolution pathways of Internet addiction among university students and to identify the core driving nodes, so as to provide theoretical evidences for the precise implementation of targeted interventions. Methods: Using a convenient cluster sampling method, a total of 1 066 full time freshmen and sophomores were recruited from three universities in Guizhou, Jiangxi, and Guangdong Provinces for a follow up survey (T1:January-March 2024; T2:January-March 2025). The Revised Chen Internet Addiction Scale (CIAS-R) was employed to assess the status of Internet addiction among university students, and cross sectional as well as cross lagged panel network models were constructed to analyze Internet addiction and its multidimensional influencing factors. Results: The T1 network comprised 19 nodes and 114 non zero edges, while the T2 network comprised 19 nodes and 126 non zero edges. Cross sectional network analysis revealed the strongest association between "insufficient sleep" and "daytime fatigue"; the core nodes were "first thought upon waking for going online" and "feeling low after disconnection" (characteristics of psychological dependence) at T1, while the core nodes shifted to "impaired health" and "excitement when online" (characteristics of functional impairment and addictive psychodynamic features) at T2. Cross lagged network analysis further indicated that "reduced leisure" directly predicted "sleep compression", and a bidirectional relationship was observed between "needing more time to achieve satisfaction" and "academic decline". Conclusions Internet addiction among university students exhibits dynamic evolutionary characteristics. Stage specific targeted interventions focusing on core driving nodes are needed, integrating behavioral regulation and academic support to break the vicious cycle and enhancing the ability to cope with real life demands.

Objective To investigate the regulatory role of the programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) and its ligand programmed cell death protein ligand 1 (PD-L1) signaling on the subtypes and functions of natural killer (NK) cells at the maternal-fetal interface during the second trimester in mice following Toxoplasma gondii infection during the first trimester. Methods Twelve 6- to 8-week-old female mice of the C57BL/6J strain were divided into a control group and an infection group, of 6 mice in each group. On the 6.5th day of pregnancy (Gd6.5), each pregnant mouse in the infection group was intraperitoneally injected with 150 tachyzoites of the Toxoplasma gondii PRU strain, while mice in the control group were injected with an equal volume of physiological saline. On the 12.5th day of pregnancy (Gd12.5), uterus and placenta tissues were sampled from pregnant mice for pathological observations, and the mRNA expression levels of PD-1, PD-L1, and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) were quantified in uterus and placenta tissues. The PD-1 and DX5 expression was measured on NK cells at the maternal-fetal interface using flow cytometry. In addition, the in vitro JEG-3 trophoblast cells and NK-92MI cells co-culture system was established as the control group, and the addition of T. gondii tachyzoites in the co-culture system served as the infection group. The PD-1, PD-L1, and DX5 mRNA expression was quantified in cells using real-time fluorescence quantitative reverse transcription PCR (RT-qPCR) assay, and the TNF-α concentration was measured in the cell culture supernatant using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Results On Gd12.5, clear and intact cellular structures of placental decidual tissues were seen in pregnant mice in the control group, with no remarkable abnormal changes found in the uterine columnar epithelial cells, and inflammatory cell infiltration and blood stasis at varying degrees were found in uterine and placental tissues from pregnant mice in the infection group. The relative PD-1, PD-L1, and TNF-α mRNA expression was (1.004 ± 0.004), (1.001 ± 0.001), and (1.001 ± 0.001) in uterine tissues from pregnant mice in the control group and (2.480 ± 0.720), (3.355 ± 0.920), and (2.391 ± 0.073) in the infection group, respectively. The relative PD-1, PD-L1, and TNF-α mRNA expression was (1.007 ± 0.010), (1.006 ± 0.006), and (1.001 ± 0.001) in the uterine tissues in the control group and (6.948 ± 1.918), (3.225 ± 1.034), and (1.536 ± 0.150) in the infection group, respectively. The relative PD-1, PD-L1, and TNF-α mRNA expression was higher in both the uterine (t = 3.55, 4.43 and 33.02, all P values < 0.05) and placental tissues (t = 5.36, 3.72 and 6.18, all P values < 0.05) in the infection group than in the control group. Flow cytometry showed that the proportions of PD-1⁺ NK cells, PD-1⁺ DX5⁺ NK cells, and DX5⁺ NK cells were (12.200 ± 1.082)%, (9.373 ± 7.728)%, and (44.000 ± 4.095)% in uterine tissues from pregnant mice in the control group, and (21.733 ± 1.630)%, (18.767 ± 1.242)%, and (73.367 ± 0.611)% in the infection group, respectively. The proportions of PD-1⁺ NK cells, PD-1⁺ DX5⁺ NK cells, and DX5⁺ NK cells were (1.100 ± 0.510)%, (2.277 ± 1.337)%, and (96.167 ± 2.831)% in placental tissues from mice in the control group, and (26.867 ± 9.722)%, (23.433 ± 6.983)%, and (82.467 ± 2.248)% in the infection group, respectively. The proportions of PD-1⁺ NK cells (t = 8.45, P < 0.05) and DX5⁺ NK cells (t = 12.29, P < 0.05) were higher in uterine tissues from pregnant mice in the infection group than in the control group, and no significant difference was seen in the proportion of PD-1⁺ DX5⁺ NK cells (Z = -1.09, P > 0.05). The proportions of PD-1⁺ NK cells (t = 4.58, P < 0.05) and PD-1⁺ DX5⁺ NK cells (t = 5.15, P < 0.05) were higher in placental tissues from pregnant mice in the infection group than in the control group, while the proportion of DX5⁺ NK cells was lower in the infection group than in the control group (t = -6.56, P < 0.05). RT-qPCR assay revealed that the relative PD-1, PD-L1, and DX5 mRNA expression was (1.010 ± 0.005), (1.002 ± 0.003), and (1.001 ± 0.001) in the JEG-3 cells and NK92MI cells co-culture system and (3.638 ± 1.258), (0.397 ± 0.158), and (4.267 ± 1.750) in the control group, and ELISA measured that the TNF-α concentration was higher in the cell culture supernatant in the infection group [(22.056 ± 3.205) pg/mL] than in the control group [(12.441 ± 0.001) pg/mL] (t = 5.20, P < 0.05). The PD-1(t = 3.62, P < 0.05) and DX5 mRNA expression (t = 3.23, P < 0.05) was higher in the infection group than in the control group, and the PD-L1 mRNA expression was lower in the infection group than in the control group (t = -6.63, P < 0.05). Conclusions Following T. gondii infection, both PD-L1 expression and PD-1 expression on DX5⁺ NK cells at the maternal-fetal interface are upregulated in mice during the second trimester; however, the proportion of DX5⁺ NK cells decreases. These findings suggest that PD-1/PD-L1 signaling may suppress NK cell functions by modulating DX5⁺ NK cell subsets.

G-protein signaling modulator 2 is a member of the GPSM family, with emerging significance in various diseases including Chadley-McCullough syndrome, rheumatoid arthritis, and systemic lupus erythematosus. Furthermore, its involvement extends to tumor pathogenesis, encompassing non-small-cell lung cancer, breast cancer, hepatocellular carcinoma, pancreatic carcinoma, serous ovarian cancer, Ewing's sarcoma, and osteosarcoma, influencing proliferation, invasion, and metastasis. There is no relevant review on the mechanism of GPSM2 in tumor progression. This paper will summarize the research progress on GPSM2 in tumors in recent years, focusing on its role and mechanism, with the aim of providing references and guidance for further research.

The effect of Radix isatidis polysaccharide(IRPS)on TLR3/TRIF innate immune path-way and type Ⅰ interferon secretion in 3D4/21/CD163 cells infected by porcine reproductive and re-spiratory syndrome virus(PRRSV)was tested by Western blot and ELISA;moreover,the effect of IRPS on the immunosuppression infected by PRRSV was further verified with the TLR3 agonist poly(I∶C).The results showed that the protein levels of TLR3,TRIF,IRF3,IRF7 and type Ⅰ in-terferon secretion were significantly decreased at 18,24 h of PRRSV infection,while IRPS signifi-cantly inhibited this process;poly(I∶C)alleviated the protein levels of TRIF,IRF3 and IRF7 as well as the phosphorylation levels of IRF3 and IRF7 infected by PRRSV;at the same time,IRPS is synergistic with poly(I∶C).The results indicate that IRPS is able to alleviate immunosuppression caused by PRRSV infection via the TLR3/TRIF pathway.

Radiation-induced heart disease (RIHD) is a common complication of radiotherapy and one of the main causes of non-cancer death in patients with thoracic malignant tumors, which seriously affects the clinical outcome and quality of life of patients. PET imaging is able to assess myocardial perfusion, abnormal myocardial metabolic, cardiac sympathetic disorders, myocardial fibrosis and inflammation, and is of great value in the early diagnosis and detection of RIHD. This article reviews the progress of PET imaging in the early detection of RIHD.

Objective:To identify risk factors for infections by multidrug-resistant organisms(MDRO)in elderly patients admitted to the intensive care unit(ICU)based on an retrospective analysis of data from the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care-Ⅳ v2.0(MIMIC-Ⅳ v2.0).Methods:Structured query language was used to extract basic information, disease severity scores, laboratory test results, medications, medical procedures, and outcome events of elderly patients from MIMIC-Ⅳ v2.0.Patients were divided into a non-MDRO group and an MDRO group based on whether they had MDRO infections.Univariate analysis was performed according to the type of variables.For significant variables identified from univariate analysis, logistic regression was used to calculate the odds ratio and the 95% confidence interval for MDRO infections.The Kaplan-Meier method was used to draw survival curves.The log-rank test was used to analyze the 28-day survival rate.Results:A total of 31 237 cases were enrolled, including 26 032 with non-MDRO infections and 5 205 with MDRO infections.The MDRO infection rate was 16.7%.MDRO were most frequently found in urine cultures, and the most common bacteria belonged to the genus Enterobacter.Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that age( P=0.006), being male( P<0.001), coronary artery disease( P<0.001), brain disease( P=0.042), hemoglobin( P<0.001), albumin( P<0.001), and mechanical ventilation( P<0.001)were protective factors against MDRO infections.Diabetes( P<0.001), COPD( P<0.001), chronic kidney disease( P<0.001), white blood cell( P=0.001), SAPS Ⅱ( P<0.001), previous use of antibiotics( P<0.001), use of proton pump inhibitors( P<0.001), glucocorticoids( P<0.001), immunosuppressants( P<0.001)and sedatives( P<0.001), and continuous renal replacement therapy(CRRT)( P=0.015)were risk factors for MDRO infections.The 28-day mortality rates of the non-MDRO and MDRO groups were 16.3% and 19.1%, respectively.The log-rank test showed that the difference between two groups was statistically significant( P<0.001). Conclusions:The mortality rate among patients with MDRO infections is higher than among those with non-MDRO infections.Previous use of antibiotics, use of proton pump inhibitors, glucocorticoids, immunosuppressants and sedatives, mechanical ventilation, and CRRT are risk factors for MDRO infections.

Objective:To investigate the risk factors for postsurgical gastroparesis syndrome (PGS) after laparoscopic complete mesocolic excision (CME) for right colon cancer.Methods:The clinical data of 358 patients who underwent laparoscopic CME for right colon cancer were retrospectively analyzed. Univariate and multivariate logistics regression were used to analyze the independent risk factors for PGS.Results:PGS occurred in 19 patients (4.8%). Logistic regression analysis showed that preoperative anxiety score (PAS-7)≥14 ( OR=6.450, P=0.039), preoperative serum albumin<35 g/L ( OR=9.302, P=0.011), colon cancer at hepatic flexura ( OR=9.782, P=0.007), No.206 group lymph node dissection ( OR=8.317, P=0.004), and intra-abdominal infection ( OR=5.755, P=0.043) were independent risk factors for PGS. Conclusion:Patient's preoperative health status, tumor location, scope of lymph node dissection and postoperative intra-abdominal infection are all risk factors related to PGS after CME for right colon cancer.

Objective:To analyze the clinical features and outcomes of paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia (PSVT) in neonates without structural heart disease.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted on PSVT neonates without structural heart disease who were treated and followed up at the Women and Children's Hospital, Qingdao University, from January 2019 to June 2022. Clinical data, including the prenatal history of PSVT, the time at first onset of PSVT after birth, anti-arrhythmic treatment, and follow-up outcomes, were collected and analyzed. These patients were divided into two groups based on the presence and absence of fetal PSVT history. Differences in the clinical data between the two groups were compared, including the time at first onset of PSVT, the proportion of patients with persistent tachycardia at initial diagnosis, and hospitalization frequency. Statistical analysis was performed using t-test, Mann-Whitney U test, or Pearson's Chi-square test. Results:A total of 72 neonates with PSVT were included, with an average gestational age at delivery of (38.8±1.8) weeks and an average birth weight of (3 260±330) g. There were 26 (36.1%) cases with a prenatal history of PSVT, while 46 (63.9%) cases without. The median time at the first onset of PSVT after birth was 2.1 (0.3-13.7) d. Anti-arrhythmic drugs used for the patients included propafenone (44 cases, 61.1%), amiodarone (28 cases, 38.9%), and cedilanid (14 cases, 19.4%). There were 44 cases (61.1%) received single drug therapy, 26 (36.1%) receiving dual therapy, and only two (2.8%) receiving triple therapy. Prophylactic drugs were administered to 38 patients (52.8%) for six months, and 20 (27.8%) for 12 months. Fourteen cases (19.4%) still exhibited tachycardia during follow-up and continued their drug therapy. No major illnesses or deaths occurred in the 72 patients during a 12-month follow-up. Compared with the patients without a history of fetal PSVT, those with a history of fetal PSVT had an earlier onset of PSVT after birth [0.2 d (0.0-0.7 d) vs. 12.0 d (2.2-15.0 d), Z=－4.83, P<0.001], a high rate of persistent tachycardia at first diagnosis [76.9% (20/26) vs. 39.1% (18/46), χ2=4.76, P=0.029], more hospitalizations [4.0 times(3.0-7.0 times) vs. 1.0 times (1.0-1.0 times), Z=－3.52, P<0.001], and longer duration of preventive anti-arrhythmic treatment [12.0 months (10.5-21.0 months) vs. 6.0 months (3.0-6.0 months), Z=－4.17, P<0.001]. Conclusion:Attention should be given to PSVT screening in neonates without structural heart disease, particularly for those with a history of fetal PSVT, who tend to have an early onset of PSVT after birth, persistent tachycardia at first diagnosis with high rates of recurrence and require longer preventive anti-arrhythmic treatment.
