Objective:
To explore the longitudinal relationship between bullying victimization and sleep quality among rural boarding junior high school students in Hebei Province, and to investigate the chain mediated role of loneliness and rumination, so as to provide evidence for promoting sleep health in the population.
Methods:
A baseline survey was conducted in May, 2023 (T1) by convenient sampling method, and two rounds of longitudinal surveys were conducted in November, 2023 (T2) and May, 2024 (T3) among students in two rural boarding junior high schools in Hebei Province, and a sample of 601 students who completed all the surveys was finally obtained. Students completed questionnaires, including the Delaware Bullying Victimization Scale Student (DBVS-S), the University of California at Los Angeles Loneliness Scale (UCLA), the Ruminative Responses Scale, and the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI). Group differences were examined by using t-test or ANOVA, correlations between variables were analyzed by using Pearson correlation coefficients, and a serial mediation structural equation model was constructed, with mediation effects tested via the Bootstrap method.
Results:
Female students scored higher on sleep quality than male students (7.47±2.70, 6.47 ±2.46, t =4.74, P <0.01). Pearson correlation analysis indicated that bullying victimization was positively correlated with loneliness, rumination, and sleep quality; loneliness was positively correlated with rumination and sleep quality; and rumination was positively correlated with sleep quality ( r =0.26, 0.33, 0.23; 0.39, 0.38; 0.54, all P <0.01). Mediation analysis showed that T2 loneliness had an independent mediating effect of 0.70 (95% CI =0.36-1.35) between T1 bullying victimization and T3 sleep quality, T2 rumination had an independent mediating effect of 1.34 (95% CI =0.71-2.45), and the serial mediation effect of T2 loneliness and T2 rumination was 0.64 (95% CI =0.37-1.13), accounting for 22.11% of the total effect (all P <0.01).
Conclusions
Bullying victimization adversely affects sleep quality among rural boarding junior high school students through a longitudinal chain mediating pathway involving loneliness and rumination. Psychological interventions should be strengthened for students who experience bullying to alleviate their loneliness and reduce rumination, thereby improving sleep quality.

Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) are antitumor drugs composed of monoclonal antibodies and cytotoxic payload covalently coupled by a linker. Currently, 15 ADCs have been clinically approved worldwide. More than 100 clinical trials at different phases are underway to investigate the newly developed ADCs. ADCs represent one of the fastest growing classes of targeted antitumor drugs in oncology drug development. It takes advantage of the specific targeting of tumor-specific antigen by antibodies to deliver cytotoxic chemotherapeutic drugs precisely to tumor cells, thereby producing promising antitumor efficacy and favorable adverse effect profiles. However, emergence of drug resistance has severely hindered the clinical efficacy of ADCs. In this review, we introduce the structure and mechanism of ADCs, describe the development of ADCs, summarized the latest research about the mechanisms of ADC resistance, discussed the strategies to overcome ADCs resistance, and predicted biomarkers for treatment response to ADC, aiming to contribute to the development of ADCs in the future.

Objective To investigate the role of transcription factor EB(TFEB)in endotoxin-tolerant macrophages.Methods The RAW264.7 cells were divided into blank group(DMEM medium),LPS 5 group(5 ng/mL LPS treatment for 4 h),LPS 100 group(100 ng/mL LPS treatment for 4 h),and tolerance group(5 ng/mL LPS for 12 h followed by 100 ng/mL LPS for 4 h).The releases of inflammatory factors TNF-α and IL-6 were measured using ELISA.Western blotting and immunofluorescence assay were used to evaluate the distribution of autophagy-related proteins LC3 and P62,as well as TFEB in the cytoplasm and nucleus.Lentiviral overexpression of TFEB or siRNA-mediated knockdown of TFEB were performed to observe the changes in autophagy levels and bacterial clearance ability in the tolerant cells.Results The cells in the tolerance group had significantly lower contents of TNF-α and IL-6,as well as reduced bacterial clearance ability(P<0.01),down-regulated LC3 expression while up-regulated P62 level,and decreased expression of TFEB in both the cytoplasm and nucleus(P<0.01)when compared with the cells of the LPS 100 group.Overexpression of TFEB significantly increased LC3 level,reduced P62 level,and enhanced bacterial clearance ability in the endotoxin-tolerant cells(P<0.01).In contrast,siRNA-mediated knockdown of TFEB had no significant impacts on LC3 and P62 expression levels or bacterial clearance ability.Conclusion Overexpression of TFEB can restore the autophagy of endotoxin-tolerant cells and enhance their bacterial clearance capacity,thereby alleviating the immunosuppressive state of sepsis.These findings suggest that TFEB holds promise as a potential therapeutic target for the prevention and treatment of sepsis.

Objective:
To identify ferroptosis-related genes associated with gastric cancer prognosis and investigate their potential molecular functions.
Methods:
Gene expression profiles and clinical information of gastric cancer tissues and adjacent normal tissues were obtained from TCGA database. Differential expression analysis of ferroptosis-related genes was performed using the "DESeq2" package in R software. Key genes were identified and a prognostic model for gastric cancer was constructed through Cox regression analysis based on the LASSO algorithm. Patients were stratified into high-risk and low-risk groups according to the median risk score. The accuracy of the model was evaluated using Kaplan-Meier survival analysis and ROC curve analysis. Immune cell infiltration in gastric cancer patients was assessed with the "CIBERSORT" package. The mRNA expression of differentially expressed genes(DEGs) with prognostic significance was examined in both gastric cancer and adjacent normal tissue samples. In vitro experiments were conducted to validate the impact of hydroxycarboxylic acid receptor 1(HCAR1) on the malignant biological behavior of gastric cancer.
Results:
Based on ferroptosis-related genes from the TCGA database, a novel prognostic model was constructed. It demonstrated robust predictive power for survival in both training and validation cohorts. RT-qPCR analysis of 8 pairs of gastric cancer and normal tissues revealed that the expression patterns of 6 prognostic DEGs in cancer tissues were consistent with those predicted by the model. In vitro experiments confirmed that downregulation of the key gene HCAR1 could inhibit the proliferation, invasion, and metastasis of gastric cancer cells.
Conclusion
The ferroptosis-related gene based prognostic model exhibits robust predictive capability, allowing for accurate determination of prognosis and survival in individuals with gastric cancer.

Objective In the clinical teaching of neurosurgery,the traditional Problem-Based Learning(PBL)teaching model faces systematic challenges such as the disconnection between the training cycle of specialized talents and technological iteration,the limitation of practical opportunities due to hospital infections,and the inefficient allocation of teaching resources.It provides a new path for teaching reform based on the deep integration of Artificial Intelligence and PBL,but it still needs to address issues such as differences in intern participation,insufficient technical adaptability of instructors,and fragmented resource allocation.Based on these problems,a collaborative mechanism of"technology development-talent cultivation"and a multi-dimensional optimization path of"intern participation-instructor training-hospital resource input"are proposed.On this basis,through collaborative strategies such as strengthening the incentive mechanism for autonomous learning,establishing a standardized instructor training system,and building a dynamic resource allocation platform,the management of neurosurgery clinical teaching is promoted towards intelligence,personalization,and systematization.
