Homo- or heterodimeric compounds that affect dimeric protein function through interaction between monomeric moieties and protein subunits can serve as valuable sources of potent and selective drug candidates. Here, we screened an in-house dimeric natural product collection, and panepocyclinol A (PecA) emerged as a selective and potent STAT3 inhibitor with profound anti-tumor efficacy. Through cross-linking C712/C718 residues in separate STAT3 monomers with two distinct Michael receptors, PecA inhibits STAT3 DNA binding affinity and transcription activity. Molecular dynamics simulation reveals the key conformation changes of STAT3 dimers upon the di-covalent binding with PecA that abolishes its DNA interactions. Furthermore, PecA exhibits high efficacy against anaplastic large T cell lymphoma in vitro and in vivo, especially those with constitutively activated STAT3 or STAT3Y640F. In summary, our study describes a distinct and effective di-covalent modification for the dimeric compound PecA to disrupt STAT3 function.

Objective:
To understand anxiety symptoms among medical college students and their relationship with social ecological risk factors, so as to provide reference for mental health promotion among medical students.
Methods:
From September to October 2021, a convenient cluster sampling method was used to include 1 274 freshmen to senior students of a medical school in Taiyuan City, and the Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7 and adolescent social ecological risk factors assessment questionnaire were used. Multivariate binary Logistic regression was used to analyze the association between anxiety symptoms and social ecological risk factors among medical students.
Results:
The overall detection rate of anxiety symptoms among medical students was 16.2%. The rate of anxiety varied significantly by grade (freshman: 19.9%, sophomore: 13.0%, junior: 14.0%, senior: 18.9% ) and number of friends (≤2: 22.8%, 3-5: 14.4%, ≥6: 11.8%) ( χ 2=8.70, 16.34, P <0.05). Spearman correlation analysis showed that individual, family, school, community, policy, culture, time, and total score in socio ecological risk factors were positively associated with anxiety symptom scores at different levels of risk ( r=0.33, 0.25, 0.32, 0.16, 0.15, 0.16, 0.16, 0.35, P <0.01). Logistic regression analysis showed that high risk for personal dimension of the socio ecological risk factors was positively associated with rate of anxiety symptoms among medical students ( OR=3.32, 95%CI =1.66-6.61), and remained positively associated ( OR=2.98, 95%CI =1.49-5.94) after adjusting for grade and number of friends ( P <0.01).
Conclusions
Exposure to high personal dimensions of socio ecological risk factors increases the risk of developing anxiety symptoms among medical students. A focus should be placed on the personal factors associated with anxiety to promote medical students mental health.

ObjectiveTo determine the antibody levels of varicella-zoster virus (VZV) in healthy individuals aged 1 to 30 years in Songjiang District of Shanghai, and to provide evidence for further development of varicella immunization strategies for healthy population. MethodsSix village committees were selected in Songjiang District through multi-stage stratified random sampling method from July to September 2022. Healthy individuals aged 1 to 30 years old in these villages were recruited and 3‒5 mL of venous blood was collected. Anti-VZV IgG antibody was tested by ELISA. Positive rate of anti-VZV IgG antibody and geometric mean concentration (GMC) were determined. ResultsA total of 315 healthy individuals aged (10.97±8.38) years were included in this study, of which 165 were males aged (11.00±8.52) years and 150 were females aged (10.96±8.25) years. Blood samples were collected and tested for anti-VZV IgG antibody, with the overall positive rate of 55.24% (174/315). The GMC was calculated to be 99.73 mIU·mL-1, with the GMC in those tested positive for anti-VZV IgG antibody of 413.11 mIU·mL-1. The positive rate of anti-VZV IgG antibody and GMCs across age groups ranged between 13.33%‒86.67% and 16.36‒355.14 mIU·mL-1, respectively. The highest GMC was found in the group of 20‒30 years old (355.14 mIU·mL-1), followed by 132.41 mIU·mL-1 in the group of 5‒ years old and 138.12 mIU·mL-1 in the group of 15‒ years old. Moreover, the positive rate was 38.47% in the group with 1-dose varicella vaccine and 63.49% in the group with 2 doses, while the GMC were 53.28 mIU·mL-1 and 130.79 mIU·mL-1 in these two groups, respectively. Multivariable analysis revealed that occupation was a risk factor associated with anti-VZV IgG antibody (OR=2.540). Stratified analysis by varicella immunization history showed that among 2-dose vaccination group, time interval since the last dose was a protective factor (OR=0.315). ConclusionsThe overall positive rate of anti-VZV IgG antibody in healthy population in Songjiang District of Shanghai remains low. The 2-dose varicella vaccination should be strengthened to improve the coverage in susceptible population.

Malocclusion,identified by the World Health Organization(WHO)as one of three major oral diseases,profoundly impacts the dental-maxillofacial functions,facial esthetics,and long-term development of~260 million children in China.Beyond its physical manifestations,malocclusion also significantly influences the psycho-social well-being of these children.Timely intervention in malocclusion can foster an environment conducive to dental-maxillofacial development and substantially decrease the incidence of malocclusion or reduce the severity and complexity of malocclusion in the permanent dentition,by mitigating the negative impact of abnormal environmental influences on the growth.Early orthodontic treatment encompasses accurate identification and treatment of dental and maxillofacial morphological and functional abnormalities during various stages of dental-maxillofacial development,ranging from fetal stages to the early permanent dentition phase.From an economic and societal standpoint,the urgency for effective early orthodontic treatments for malocclusions in childhood cannot be overstated,underlining its profound practical and social importance.This consensus paper discusses the characteristics and the detrimental effects of malocclusion in children,emphasizing critical need for early treatment.It elaborates on corresponding core principles and fundamental approaches in early orthodontics,proposing comprehensive guidance for preventive and interceptive orthodontic treatment,serving as a reference for clinicians engaged in early orthodontic treatment.

Objective:Retinal vein occlusion(RVO)is the second most common retinal vascular disease worldwide,and the retinal perfusion status is closely related to the prognosis of the disease.Macular perfusion status is particularly correlated with visual acuity.This study aims to investigate the changes in macular perfusion indicators in RVO using optical coherence tomography angiography(OCTA)and analyze the correlation between macular perfusion status and visual acuity. Methods:This cross-sectional study included 41 RVO patients,who were divided into 2 groups based on the occlusion site:18 cases in the central retinal vein occlusion(CRVO)group and 23 cases in the branch retinal vein occlusion(BRVO)group.Additionally,they were categorized into ischemic RVO(23 cases)and non-ischemic RVO(16 cases)groups based on the presence of ischemia(2 eyes were excluded due to hemorrhage obscuring the peripheral retina,making it impossible to confirm the area of non-perfusion).A control group of 29 healthy individuals matched by sex and age was also recruited.Macular perfusion indicators were measured using OCTA,and the correlation between macular perfusion status and visual acuity was analyzed. Results:Compared with healthy eyes,RVO eyes showed an increased foveal avascular zone(FAZ)area and significantly reduced superficial and deep vessel density(P<0.001).However,there were no significant differences in central foveal thickness(CFT)or macular perfusion indicators between the CRVO and BRVO groups(P>0.05).The best corrected visual acuity(BCVA)at the logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution(logMAR BCVA)was significantly negatively correlated with both superficial and deep retinal vessel density in RVO eyes(unstandardized coefficient B=-0.039,B=-0.042;P=0.017,P=0.040).The average BCVA in the ischemic RVO group was significantly worse than that in the non-ischemic RVO group(0.82±0.44 vs 0.45±0.29,P=0.007).The ischemic RVO group also had a larger FAZ area(P=0.003)and lower superficial and deep retinal vessel density(P<0.001,P=0.008,respectively)compared with the non-ischemic RVO group.The severity of macular ischemia did not correspond directly with the peripheral ischemia severity in RVO. Conclusion:Macular perfusion status is significantly reduced in RVO eyes compared to healthy eyes,which negatively impacts and limits visual acuity in RVO patients.Eyes with ischemic RVO have poorer visual acuity and macular perfusion status than those with non-ischemic RVO.OCTA is advantageous for observing vascular morphology and quantifying macular perfusion status,making it an effective tool for assessing disease progression.
