Objective: To explore the association between sleep quality and cardiorespiratory fitness among secondary school students, so as to provide a reference for promoting the overall development of physical and mental health of Chinese adolescents. Methods: From September to December 2023, 5 713 secondary school students aged 13 to 18 years were selected by the stratified cluster random sampling method from Shanghai, Suzhou, Taiyuan, Wuyuan, Xingyi, and Urumqi, respectively. Sleep quality and cardiorespiratory fitness level of secondary school students were evaluated by Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index(PSQI) combined with cardiorespiratory fitness test, and the association between sleep quality and cardiorespiratory fitness was analyzed by Pearson s correlation and multivariate linear regression. Results: The report rate of poor sleep quality among secondary school students was 33.7 %(1 926/5 713). The PSQI scores of girls aged 13-18 years were higher than those of boys ( χ 2=1.60, 12.78, 15.62, 3.04, 10.09, 13.65 ) ( P <0.05). The 20 m SRT of secondary school students was 40 (27，51) times, and the VO 2max was 46.27 (40. 84 ，51.30) mL/(kg min). The 20 m SRT and VO 2max of girls of all ages were lower than those of boys( Z =-15.27 to -6.41 , -18.06 to -14.07, P <0.05). Cardiorespiratory fitness (VO 2max) was negatively correlated with sleep duration and hypnotic medication scores in boys ( r =-0.032, -0.005); VO 2max was negatively correlated with sleep duration and daytime dysfunction scores in girls ( r =-0.028, -0.008) ( P <0.05). After controlling the related variables, linear regression analysis showed that the total PSQI score was negatively correlated with VO 2max among secondary school students( β =-0.347, P <0.01). Conclusions Secondary school students with better sleep quality have higher levels of cardiorespiratory fitness. Sleep quality should be promoted to improve cardiorespiratory fitness levels in secondary school students.

Objective:To understand the breastfeeding situation in the neonatal intensive care units (NICUs) in Qianxinan Prefecture, Guizhou Province, and to assess the knowledge, attitudes, and practices of doctors and nurses regarding breastfeeding, aiming to provide foundational data for improving breastfeeding quality.Methods:A questionnaire was developed to survey the knowledge, attitudes, and practices related to breastfeeding in NICUs. The questionnaire was divided into three dimensions: knowledge (seven items, total score of 7), attitudes (nine items, total score of 45), and practices (seven items, total score of 35). Lower scores indicated weaker recognition of breastfeeding. Additionally, five items were included to identify the most influential factors affecting breastfeeding. From November 25 to November 30, 2023, a survey was conducted among doctors and nurses with professional qualifications who had worked in the neonatal departments of nine hospitals in Qianxinan Prefecture for at least one year. Independent sample t-tests and Chi-square tests were used to compare the scores of doctors and nurses from different levels of hospitals and within the same level of hospitals across the three dimensions. Results:(1) Among the nine hospitals, three were tertiary grade A hospitals (referred to as "tertiary hospitals"), with 95.6% (43/45) of the doctors and 96.5% (110/114) of the nurses participating in the survey. Six were secondary grade A hospitals (referred to as "secondary hospitals"), with 95.0% (38/40) of the doctors and 97.6% (83/85) of the nurses participating. (2) All nine hospitals were baby-friendly hospitals and all had breastfeeding promotional materials. Six hospitals had NICUs that promoted breastfeeding, with an average NICU breastfeeding rate of 25.8% across the prefecture between year 2021 to 2023. (3) The proportion of doctors who had received breastfeeding training was higher than that of nurses within the same level of hospitals [tertiary hospitals: 69.8% (30/43) vs. 40.0% (44/110), χ 2=10.97, P=0.001; secondary hospitals: 47.4% (18/38) vs. 24.1% (20/83), χ 2=6.55, P=0.010], although the overall training rates were low. (4) In tertiary hospitals, doctors scored higher than nurses in the attitude dimension [(35.35±4.75) vs. (33.18±5.60) scores, t=－2.03, P=0.044] and also in the practice dimension [(26.98±3.00) vs. (25.60±3.75) scores, t=－2.17, P=0.032]. In secondary hospitals, the total knowledge dimension score of doctors was higher than that of nurses [(4.92±1.44) vs. (4.20±1.45) scores, t=－2.52, P=0.013]. In tertiary hospitals, the total scores for attitude and practice dimensions of doctors were higher than those of doctors in secondary hospitals, and the total scores for knowledge, attitude, and practice dimensions of nurses were higher than those of nurses in secondary hospitals (all P<0.05). (5) In the knowledge dimension, the lowest scoring item of doctors in the tertiary hospitals was "Breastfeeding is possible for maternal hepatitis B newborns after receiving vaccines and immunoglobulin"; the lowest scoring item of nurses in the tertiary hospital, and doctors and nurses in the secondary hospitals was "The duration of breastfeeding has a greater impact on neonatal outcomes". In the attitude dimension, the lowest scoring item for doctors and nurses in both tertiary and secondary hospitals was "You think the breastfeeding process is more troublesome than feeding preterm formula". In the practice dimension, the lowest scoring item of the doctors and nurses in the tertiary hospitals was "Your hospital had enough breastfeeding knowledge training", while for the doctors and nurses in the secondary hospitals were "You have more opportunities to participate in various breastfeeding-related training" and "Breast feeding should be started as soon as possible when the infant is stable after active treatment", respectively. (6) The most influential factors affecting breastfeeding were: lack of cooperation from parents (50.0%, 137/274), relative insufficient human resources for doctors and nurses (21.9%, 60/274), and the absence or poor implementation of breastfeeding management policies (18.3%, 50/274), etc. Conclusions:The breastfeeding rate in NICU of county-level hospitals is relatively low, and medical staff, especially nurses, have insufficient knowledge about breastfeeding. It is necessary to strengthen various breastfeeding training for medical staff to enhance their understanding of NICU breastfeeding.

Objective:To explore the drugs and clinical characteristics causing drug-induced liver injury (DILI) in recent years, as well as identify drug-induced liver failure, and chronic DILI risk factors, in order to better manage them timely.Methods:A retrospective investigation and analysis was conducted on 224 cases diagnosed with DILI and followed up for at least six months between January 2018 and December 2020. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to identify risk factors for drug-induced liver failure and chronic DILI.Results:Traditional Chinese medicine (accounting for 62.5%), herbal medicine (accounting for 84.3% of traditional Chinese medicine), and some Chinese patent medicines were the main causes of DILI found in this study. Severe and chronic DILI was associated with cholestatic type. Preexisting gallbladder disease, initial total bilirubin, initial prothrombin time, and initial antinuclear antibody titer were independent risk factors for DILI. Prolonged time interval between alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) falling from the peak to half of the peak (T 0.5ALP and T 0.5ALT) was an independent risk factor for chronic DILI [area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC)?=?0.787, 95%CI: 0.697~0.878, P ?

Background:Intestinal microbiota dysbiosis and impaired intestinal barrier,leading to bacterial translocation,are involved in acute pancreatitis(AP)exacerbation.Antimicrobial peptides participate in the regulation of intestinal microbiota,yet their changes and roles in the course of AP are unclear.Aims:To investigate the dynamic changes and significance of antimicrobial peptides in the ileum and pancreas among three classical AP models.Methods:Three AP mouse models were established by using cathelicidin plus lipopolysaccharide(CAE+LPS),sodium taurocholate(N-Tau)and L-arginine(L-Arg),respectively.The pathological changes of pancreatic and ileal tissues were observed and scored.Real-time PCR was applied to detect the expression levels of the proinflammatory cytokines,and antimicrobial peptides including lysozyme(LZM),secretory phospholipase A2(sPLA2),angiogenin 4(Ang4),regenerating islet-derived protein 3(REG3)family,β-defensin family,cathelicidin-related antimicrobial peptide(CRAMP),and glycoprotein 2(GP2)in ileum and/or pancreas.The association between expressions of antimicrobial peptides and the injuries of pancreas and ileum was analyzed.Results:Pancreatic and ileal injuries could be observed in all three AP models in different time points with various degrees.The pathological scores of the CAE+LPS and N-Tau models reached the highest level and then declined from 0-72 h,while those of L-Arg model progressively increased within 72 hours.Compared with the corresponding controls,the mRNA levels of LZM,sPLA2,and Ang4 in ileal tissue,and the mRNA levels of CRAMP,GP2,and β-defensins in pancreatic tissue,were generally downregulated in all three AP models(all P<0.05).CAE+LPS and N-Tau models showed a trend of initial decrease followed by partial recovery,while L-Arg model exhibited a gradual downregulation trend.The mRNA levels of REG3β and REG3γ in ileum upregulated and reached the peak at 48 h or 24 h and downregulated significantly at 72 h in all three AP models(all P<0.05);while in pancreatic tissue,both REG3β and REG3γ were generally upregulated in all three AP models(all P<0.05),but fell back in CAE+LPS and N-Tau models at 72 h.The mRNA levels of ileal β-defensins upregulated significantly in the early stage of the disease(12 h)in all three AP models(all P<0.05),and then gradually decreased.Spearman correlation coefficient analysis showed that the expressions of ileal LZM,sPLA2,and Ang4,as well as the pancreatic CRAMP,GP2,and β-defensins,were significantly negatively correlated with the pancreatic and ileal pathological scores in all three AP models(all P<0.05);but the expression of REG3β in the pancreas was significantly positively correlated with the pancreatic and ileal pathological scores(all P<0.05).Conclusions:The expressions of LZM,sPLA2,and Ang4 in the ileum,as well as the expressions of CRAMP,GP2,β-defensin family,and REG3β in the pancreas of the three classical AP models,dynamically changed with the severity of the disease.Ileal and pancreatic antimicrobial peptides may affect the injuries of pancreas and intestine during AP by regulating intestinal microbiota.

AIM:To investigate the effects and mechanism of Xin-Tong-Tai granule on oxidized low-density li-poprotein(ox-LDL),intercellular adhesion molecule-1(ICAM-1)and vascular cell adhesion molecule-1(VCAM-1)in ApoE-/-mice with atherosclerosis(AS).METHODS:A total of 72 SPF-grade healthy male ApoE-/-mice aged 6～8 weeks were fed with high-fat diet for 12 weeks to replicate AS models,and 12 SPF-grade healthy male C57BL/6J wild mice were fed with ordinary diet as the control group.After the corresponding drugs were administered for 8 weeks,the body weight and general condition of mice in each group were observed.The serum levels of total cholesterol(TC),triglyceride(TG),high-density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C)and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C)were detected by biochemi-cal kits.The pathological structures of aorta were observed by HE and oil red O staining.The levels of serum ox-LDL and aortic ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 were detected by ELISA.The protein levels of NADPH oxidase 4(NOX4),NOX subunit p22phox,inhibitor of κB kinase-α(IKK-α),IKK-β and nuclear factor-κB(NF-κB)in aorta were detected by Western blot.RESULTS:Compared with control group,the mice in model group showed increased body weight(P<0.05),dull and lo-cal shedding hair,slow grasping response,increased serum TC,TG and LDL-C levels,decreased serum HDL-C level(P<0.05),increased the levels of serum ox-LDL and aortic ICAM-1 and VCAM-1(P<0.05),and increased protein expres-sions of NOX4,p22phox,IKK-α,IKK-β and NF-κB in aorta(P<0.05).Compared with model group,the body weight of mice in each treatment group decreased(P<0.05),the hair loss and the response flexibility were also improved.The se-rum levels of TC,TG and LDL-C decreased and HDL-C increased(P<0.05).The levels of serum ox-LDL and aortic ICAM-1(except the low-dose Xin-Tong-Tai granule group)and VCAM-1 decreased(P<0.05).The protein levels of NOX4,p22phox,IKK-α,IKK-β and NF-κB in aorta decreased(P<0.05).HE and oil red O staining showed that typical AS plaques could be seen in blood vessels of the model group,and the red-stained areas were widely distributed.The above lesions were alleviated to different degrees in each treatment group compared with model group.CONCLUSION:Xin-Tong-Tai granule reduces the atherosclerotic plaque area of ApoE-/-mice induced by high-fat diet,decreased serum TC,TG and LDL-C levels,increased HDL-C level,decreased the levels of serum ox-LDL and aorta ICAM-1 and VCAM-1,and inhibited protein expression of NOX4,p22phox,IKK-α and IKK-β in the aorta,thereby attenuating AS.

Objective To investigate the incidence rate,clinical characteristics,and prognosis of neonatal stroke in Shenzhen,China.Methods Led by Shenzhen Children's Hospital,the Shenzhen Neonatal Data Collaboration Network organized 21 institutions to collect 36 cases of neonatal stroke from January 2020 to December 2022.The incidence,clinical characteristics,treatment,and prognosis of neonatal stroke in Shenzhen were analyzed.Results The incidence rate of neonatal stroke in 21 hospitals from 2020 to 2022 was 1/15 137,1/6 060,and 1/7 704,respectively.Ischemic stroke accounted for 75％(27/36);boys accounted for 64％(23/36).Among the 36 neonates,31(86％)had disease onset within 3 days after birth,and 19(53％)had convulsion as the initial presentation.Cerebral MRI showed that 22 neonates(61％)had left cerebral infarction and 13(36％)had basal ganglia infarction.Magnetic resonance angiography was performed for 12 neonates,among whom 9(75％)had involvement of the middle cerebral artery.Electroencephalography was performed for 29 neonates,with sharp waves in 21 neonates(72％)and seizures in 10 neonates(34％).Symptomatic/supportive treatment varied across different hospitals.Neonatal Behavioral Neurological Assessment was performed for 12 neonates(33％,12/36),with a mean score of(32±4)points.The prognosis of 27 neonates was followed up to around 12 months of age,with 44％(12/27)of the neonates having a good prognosis.Conclusions Ischemic stroke is the main type of neonatal stroke,often with convulsions as the initial presentation,involvement of the middle cerebral artery,sharp waves on electroencephalography,and a relatively low neurodevelopment score.Symptomatic/supportive treatment is the main treatment method,and some neonates tend to have a poor prognosis.

ObjectiveTo analyze the correlation between 11 small molecule active components and 1 protein component of characteristic processed products with porcine cardiac blood and other products of Salviae Miltiorrhizae Radix et Rhizoma（SMRR） from Menghe medical school and anti-cerebral ischemic oxidative damage， and to identify its key component markers of characteristic processed products with porcine cardiac blood for anti-cerebral ischemic oxidative damage. MethodHigh performance liquid chromatography（HPLC） was established to simultaneously determine the contents of 11 active ingredients in SMRR and its processed products［processed with porcine cardiac blood， porcine blood， wine and transferrin（Tf） in porcine cardiac blood］， and the content of Tf in different processed products of SMRR was detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay（ELISA）. Furthermore， A zebrafish ischemic stroke model was constructed to evaluate the effects of different processed products of SMRR on the behavioral trajectory of cerebral ischemic zebrafish， the neuronal damage of transgenic zebrafish Tg（elavl3：eGFP） brain， as well as the levels of malondialdehyde（MDA） and superoxide dismutase（SOD） in the brain tissues. The hippocampal neurons oxygen-glucose deprivation/reoxygenation（OGD/R）-induced ischemia-hypoxia model was constructed to evaluate the effects of different processed products of SMRR on oxidative damage of neuronal cells by taking lactate dehydrogenase（LDH）， reactive oxygen species（ROS）， MDA and SOD as indexes. Finally， principal component analysis（PCA）， partial least squares-discriminant analysis（PLS-DA） and Spearman correlation analysis were used to analyze the 11 small molecule active components and 1 protein component with efficacy indicators， in order to screen the key components of the characteristic processed products with porcine cardiac blood for cerebral ischemic oxidative damage. ResultCompared with the raw products， the contents of water-soluble and fat-soluble components in processed products of SMRR increased to different degrees， while the content of salvianolic acid A decreased. Compared with the wine-processed products， the contents of salvianolic acid B， danshensu， rosmarinic acid and other components in the porcine cardiac blood-processed products， porcine blood-processed products， Tf-processed products were increased， while the content of salvianolic acid A was decreased. ELISA results showed that there was no significant difference in Tf content between the porcine cardiac blood-processed products， porcine blood-processed products， Tf-processed products. Pharmacological results showed that different processed products of SMRR could improve the behavioral deficits， brain neuronal injury and oxidative stress after ischemic stroke in zebrafish， and the effect of the porcine cardiac blood-processed products was most pronounced. PCA results showed that salvianolic acid B， salvianolic acid A， rosmarinic acid， lithospermic acid， danshensu， tanshinone Ⅱ_A， caffeic acid， cryptotanshinone and tanshinone Ⅰ were the main contributing components of SMRR and its processed products. And the results of correlation analysis showed that the contents of cryptotanshinone， rosmarinic acid， caffeic acid， dihydrotanshinone Ⅰ， salvianolic acid B， tanshinone Ⅱ_A and tanshinone Ⅰ were negatively correlated with MDA level in zebrafish brain tissue， while the contents of lithospermic acid， protocatechuic aldehyde， rosmarinic acid， dihydrotanshinone Ⅰ， salvianolic acid B and Tf were positively correlated with SOD level， and the contents of rosmarinic acid， caffeic acid， dihydrotanshinone Ⅰ， salvianolic acid B， tanshinone Ⅱ_A， tanshinone Ⅰ， danshensu， Tf were positively correlated with neuronal fluorescence intensity in the zebrafish brain. And the contents of lithospermic acid， protocatechuic aldehyde， rosmarinic acid， dihydrotanshinone Ⅰ， salvianolic acid B， tanshinone Ⅱ_A and Tf were negatively correlated with LDH， ROS and MDA levels and positively correlated with SOD level. ConclusionThere are differences in the anti-ischemic oxidative damage effects of SMRR and its different processed products， among which the porcine cardiac blood-processed products has the strongest effect on improving oxidative damage， which may be related to the content changes of salvianolic acid B， danshensu， rosmarinic acid and other components. This study can provide a basis for clarifying the quality markers of SMRR processed with porcine cardiac blood for cerebral ischemia and elucidating its processing mechanism.

Bone defects caused by different causes such as trauma, severe bone infection and other factors are common in clinic and difficult to treat. Usually, bone substitutes are required for repair. Current bone grafting materials used clinically include autologous bones, allogeneic bones, xenografts, and synthetic materials, etc. Other than autologous bones, the major hurdles of rest bone grafts have various degrees of poor biological activity and lack of active ingredients to provide osteogenic impetus. Bone marrow contains various components such as stem cells and bioactive factors, which are contributive to osteogenesis. In response, the technique of bone marrow enrichment, based on the efficient utilization of components within bone marrow, has been risen, aiming to extract osteogenic cells and factors from bone marrow of patients and incorporate them into 3D scaffolds for fabricating bone grafts with high osteoinductivity. However, the scientific guidance and application specification are lacked with regard to the clinical scope, approach, safety and effectiveness. In this context, under the organization of Chinese Orthopedic Association, the Expert consensus for the clinical application of autologous bone marrow enrichment technique for bone repair ( version 2023) is formulated based on the evidence-based medicine. The consensus covers the topics of the characteristics, range of application, safety and application notes of the technique of autologous bone marrow enrichment and proposes corresponding recommendations, hoping to provide better guidance for clinical practice of the technique.

To investigate the regulation of N6- methyladenosine ( m6A ) modification on L-type calcium channels in atrial myocytes under high hydrostatic pressure, mediated by methyltransferase-like protein 3 ( METTL3 ). Methods C57BL/6J mice were randomly assigned to the control group and the hypertension group ( treated with continuous administration of angiotensin for four weeks ). Masson staining was used to observe the fibrosis of mouse atrial tissue, while dot blot assay and Western blot were used to detect the levels of m6A, METTL3, and Cavi1 2 in the atrial tissue. A high hydrostatic pressure model was constructed using the HL-1 cell line cultured in vitro, and METTL3 was intervened to observe changes in m6A expression levels, METTL3 and Cavi1 2 levels in cells,and action potential duration ( APD ) and L-type calcium current ( I
