The view of youth moral cultivation clearly defines the scope of “morality” and puts forward the requirement of “cultivating morality” for the youth. This is a systematic concept aligned with the main theme of the times and is worth deeply exploring and integrating into the practice of medical ethics education for medical students. With the requirements for innovation and development in medical education， the cultivation of medical students has also been endowed with new connotations. Guided by the connotations of the view of youth moral cultivation and aligned with the objective requirements of medical students’ cultivation， this paper leveraged the core values of traditional Chinese medicine as its entry point. It also explored the realization paths of medical ethics education for medical students that reflect advantages， highlight characteristics， and maintain clear orientation through strengthening the medical ethics education of “dedicated study of medicine，” “honesty and prudence in words and deeds，” “benevolence in heart and skills，” and “doctor-patient trust and harmony，” aiming to cultivate guardians of people’s health with noble medical ethics and superb medical skills.

Objective:To investigate the alterations in the brain structural network properties related to cognitive emotion regulation strategies in young, first-episode and drug-naive (FEDN) patients with major depressive disorder (MDD).Methods:One hundred and twelve young patients who were diagnosed with FEDN MDD were enrolled in the Second Xiangya Hospital of Central South University between October 2019 and October 2023, and 143 healthy controls (HC) were recruited for reference during the same period. Clinical data and T 1 structural images of high-resolution magnetic resonance imaging were collected from all participants, and the cognitive emotion regulation was assessed using the Chinese version of the Cognitive Emotion Regulation Questionnaire (CERQ-C). The brain structural alterations related to cognitive emotion regulation strategies were explored using whole-brain voxel-based morphometry (VBM) group analysis and individual differential structural covariance network (IDSCN) analysis. Partial correlation analysis was performed between the IDSCN anomalous structural concatenated edge and subdimensions of the CERQ-C. Results:The scores on the sub-dimension of negative cognitive emotion regulation (self-condemnation, rumination, catastrophization, blaming others) in the young FEDN MDD patients in CERQ-C were significantly higher than those in HC (14.28±2.30 vs 12.45±2.00, t=6.501, P<0.001;14.40±2.97 vs 11.31±2.93, t=7.934, P<0.001;12.19±3.75 vs 7.59±2.58, t=10.553, P<0.001;10.26±3.00 vs 8.74±2.89, t=3.916, P<0.001; respectively). There was no statistically significant difference in the VBM group analysis (all P>0.05). However, IDSCN single sample t test results showed significant group differences between the left orbitofrontal inferior gyrus and the left supplementary motor area, the left orbitofrontal middle gyrus and the bilateral precuneus, and the left superior temporal gyrus and the bilateral hippocampus (all P<0.05). With controlling for age, sex, and other factors, partial correlation analysis results showed that the left orbital inferior frontal gyrus-left supplementary motor area connection in patients with MDD was positively correlated with the self-condemnation and acceptance scores of the CERQ-C ( r=0.226, P=0.027; r=0.216, P=0.035), while negatively correlated with the score of blaming others ( r=-0.252, P=0.013). Additionally, connections between the right hippocampus and left superior temporal gyrus were significantly associated with the scores on catastrophization subdimension of the CERQ-C ( r=0.229, P=0.025). Conclusion:Due to its sensitivity to individualized analyses, the IDSCN analysis found that abnormal topological property changes were mainly manifested in the limbic system, the sensorimotor system, and the default network in young FEDN MDD patients, and were linked to their negative cognitive emotion regulation strategies, even though the VBM group analysis did not yield any significant results.

Circadian rhythm disorders are closely related to metabolic diseases， which can cause non-alcoholic fatty liver disease （NAFLD） by directly acting on the liver or indirectly affecting the liver through the liver-brain axis and intestinal flora. The rhythms of yin and yang， ying （营） and wei （卫）， twelve hours and four seasons in traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） chronomedicine are similar to the connotations of modern biological rhythms. From the perspective of chronomedicine of TCM， the incidence of NAFLD is closely related to the abnormality of the daily rhythm of the waxing and waning of yin and yang， the daily rhythm of the circulation of ying and wei， the rhythm of twelve hours and four seasons. Through analyzing the rhythms related to the occurrence， development and prognosis of NAFLD， it is helpful to enhance the understanding of NAFLD in relation to time， so as to better guide the clinical diagnosis and treatment.

Objective: To explore the action mechanism of miR-139-5p inhibiting proliferation and invasion of epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) cells by targetedly regulatingNotch1.Methods: A total of 24 pairs of EOC tissues and its corresponding para-cancerous tissues from patients, who underwent surgical resection in the DepartmentofGynecology,Nanyang Central Hospital of Henan Province, were collected for this study; in addition, human ovarian cancer cell lines (SKOV3, ES2, HEY-T30) and human ovarian epithelial cell line IOSE80 were also collected. Real-time quantitative PCR (qPCR) was applied to detectmRNAexpressionofmiR-139-5pandNotch1 in EOC tissues and cell lines. The miR-139-5p over-expression vector and recombinant plasmid pLV-Notch1 were transfected into SKOV3 cells. Blank control group (Ctrl group) and negative control group (NC group) were set up. Dual luciferase reporter gene assay was applied to verify the targeting relationship between miR-139-5p and Notch1 3'-UTR. CCK-8, Transwell and Scratch healing experiments were applied to detect cell proliferationinvasionandmigration, respectively. Western blotting was applied to detect expressions of proliferation and migration related proteins in cells. Results: Compared with para-cancerous tissues and IOSE80 cells, the expression of miR-139-5p was significantly decreased in EOC tissues and cell lines, while the expression of Notch1 mRNA was significantly increased (all P<0.01). The results of Dual luciferase reporter showed that Notch1 was the downstream target gene of miR-139-5p. Compared with NC group, cell proliferation, invasion and migration ability, expression levels of Notch1, NICD, Cyclin D1, Cyclin A1, Snail1, β-catenin and N-cadherin were all significantly decreased on 3 d in miR-139-5p mimic group (all P<0.01), while expression of E-cadherin was significantly increased (P<0.01); meanwhile, over-expression of Notch1 could reverse the inhibitory effect of miR-1395p on proliferation, invasion and migration of SKOV3 cells. Conclusion: miR-139-5p can targetedly regulate Notch1 to inhibit proliferation, invasion and migration of EOC cells, which may be related to its down-regulation of NICD, Cyclin D1, Cyclin A1, Snail1, βcatenin and N-cadherin, and up-regulation of E-cadherin.
