Objective:
To investigate the prevalence of depressive symptoms and their associated factors among students in Zhejiang Province, so as to provide evidence for targeted prevention strategies.
Methods:
A stratified cluster random sampling method was used to select 23 829 college students and primary and secondary school students aged 11-22 years in Zhejiang Province from December 2019 to February 2020. Depressive symptoms were assessed using the Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale (CES-D). Three machine learning algorithms, including Logistic regression, random forest, and eXtreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost), were applied to construct predictive models, and key associated factors were identified by comparing model performance.
Results:
The detection rate of depressive symptoms among students in Zhejiang Province was 19.92%; the rates were 17.20% in boys and 22.87% in girls( χ 2=164.89, P <0.05). The CES-D total score was 9.00(4.00,13.00). Multiple Logistic regression analysis revealed that loneliness had the strongest association with depressive symptoms ( AOR =9.58, 95% CI =8.90-10.30), while bullying exposure ( AOR =4.39, 95% CI =4.02-4.80), female students( AOR =1.81, 95% CI =1.68-1.94),never eating breakfast ( AOR = 2.34,95% CI =2.00-2.67) and overweight/obesity( AOR =1.10,95% CI =1.08-1.12) were significant associated factors of depressive symptoms among students (all P <0.05). Analysis based on the XGBoost model produced highly consistent results, identifying the above 5 factors as the core features with the highest correlation strength (all P <0.05).
Conclusions
Female, loneliness, bullying exposure, frequency of weekly breakfast and BMI are strongly associated with depressive symptoms among students. Mental health education for high risk groups should be strengthened, and coordinated prevention efforts between families and schools are recommended.

Objective To summarize the clinical features and treatment strategies of acute mercury poisoning caused by intramuscular injection of metallic mercury. Methods The clinical data of a patient with acute mercury poisoning following intramuscular injection of metallic mercury were collected, and a retrospective analysis of the diagnosis and treatment process was conducted. Results The patient was a 14-year-old boy who self-injected 20 g of metallic mercury into the left upper arm muscle. Clinical manifestations included fever, chest tightness, cough, and a painful mass at the injection site. Laboratory tests of the patient indicated that blood mercury level was 4.160 μmol/L, urinary mercury level was 6 545.50 μg/g creatinine, urinary retinol-binding protein was 6 556 μg/L, urinary β2-microglobulin was 8 726.48 μg/g creatinine, and urinary α1-microglobulin was 41.60 mg/L at day 11 after injection. Thoracoabdominal imaging revealed mercury deposition in the lungs, heart, liver, kidneys, and other organs. The patient's clinical symptoms were markedly relieved after one course of treatment with sodium dimercaptopropanesulfonate for mercury chelation. Subsequent treatment included continued mercury chelation therapy, debridement of muscle tissue at the injection site, removal of retained foreign bodies, and other supportive measures. Reexamination showed a blood mercury level of 2.810 μmol/L and urinary mercury level of 5 280 μg/L at day 127 after injection. Conclusion The clinical manifestations of intramuscular injection of metallic mercury poisoning differ from those of occupational mercury poisoning. Debridement of the injection site combined with sodium dimercaptopropanesulfonate chelation therapy can alleviate systemic symptoms and reduce mercury levels in such patients.

OBJECTIVE To construct and evaluate a perioperative pharmaceutical care model for orthopedic joint replacement based on clinical pharmacy specialty collaboration and medication therapy management (MTM), so as to provide a reference for improving the level of clinical rational drug use and reducing medical costs.METHODS Patients undergoing orthopedic joint replacement were taken as the research subjects. A specialized collaboration group was established, consisting of the head of the clinical pharmacy group, ward-based clinical pharmacists, and multi-specialty clinical pharmacists. The practice path, service contents,and workflow of MTM for the perioperative period of orthopedic joint replacement were clarified,and a perioperative pharmaceutical care model for orthopedic joint replacement was developed. Data of patients in the orthopedic diagnosis-related groups (DRG)-IC29 group of the department of orthopedics in Daping Hospital,Army Medical University were collected from July 2022 to June 2023 (pre-intervention, 581 cases) and from July 2023 to June 2024 (post-intervention, 843 cases). The work-implementation indicators in the post-intervention period were counted, and the efficiency indicators and pharmaceutical management indicators were compared between the pre- and post-intervention periods. Meanwhile,200 patients were randomly selected from the pre-intervention and post-intervention groups, respectively, to evaluate the rate of rational medical orders.RESULTS From July 2023 to June 2024, the collaboration group implemented MTM for 843 patients undergoing orthopedic joint replacement via the established perioperative pharmaceutical care model. A total of 1 163 drug‑related problems (DRPs) were identified, and 79 patients with high medication‑related risks were screened out. The most common types of DRPs included (possible) adverse drug events/reactions (48.93%), unnecessary drug therapy (21.58%), and ineffective drug therapy (16.25%). Among the 1 163 DRPs, 895 (76.96%) were completely resolved. Compared with the pre‑intervention period, the post‑intervention period showed reductions in average hospitalization cost per case, average drug cost per case, average length of hospital stay, proportion of drug cost, utilization rate and use intensity of antibacterial agents, and per‑capita drug cost of six main drug categories. The rate of rational medical orders increased from 78.25% to 98.11%.CONCLUSIONS The perioperative pharmaceutical care model for orthopedic joint replacement based on clinical pharmacy specialty collaboration and MTM can help pharmacists identify and resolve DRPs during the perioperative period of orthopedic joint replacement,improve the level of clinical rational drug use,and reduce treatment costs.

ObjectiveTo explore the key genes influencing diacylglycerol metabolism in neuroblastoma (NB), clarify the expression and clinical significance of diacylglycerol acyltransferase 2 (DGAT2) in NB, and provide a theoretical basis for the diagnosis and targeted therapy of NB. MethodsNB transcriptome data were obtained from GEO (GSE49710) and TCGA (TARGET-NBL) databases. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) commonly upregulated in MYCN-amplified groups were screened, and the key gene DGAT2 was identified by intersecting the screened DEGs with the diacylglycerol metabolism-related gene set followed by prognostic analysis and comparison. The expression of DGAT2 was analyzed via the R2 database. The potential impact of DGAT2 on the immune microenvironment was explored by combining the single-cell dataset GSE137804. Immunohistochemistry (IHC) was used to detect the expression level of DGAT2 and its correlation with MYCN expression in 55 clinical NB tissues and mouse xenograft tumor tissues. ResultsA total of 907 DEGs commonly upregulated in the MYCN-amplified groups were screened, among which three DEGs were highly expressed in the diacylglycerol metabolism-related gene set (P<0.05). After comparison, DGAT2 was found to have the most significant impact on prognosis (HR=1.4, 95% CI:1.2,1.7; P=5.41×10-7). Survival analysis showed that patients with high DGAT2 expression had a significantly shorter overall survival. Single-cell analysis revealed that high expression of DGAT2 led to an immunosuppressive microenvironment in NB. IHC results showed that the expression of DGAT2 in NB tissues was significantly positively correlated with MYCN expression in the tumor tissue microarrays of clinical NB patients and the tissues of mouse ectopic xenograft tumors (rs=0.369 4,P<0.01). ConclusionsDGAT2 is highly expressed in MYCN-amplified NB, and may independently predict poor prognosis in NB patients. It is expected to become a diagnostic marker for NB and a potential therapeutic target for MYCN-amplified NB.

Nitrogen oxides(NOx=NO+NO2)are important precursors of ozone(O3),and NOx and its oxides together constitute reactive nitrogen oxides(NOy)in the atmosphere.A comprehensive understanding of the total NOy level in the atmosphere is of great significance for a deeper understanding of the atmospheric nitrogen cycle and oxidation,as well as for formulating strategies for air pollution prevention and control.In this work,a thermal decomposition-broadband cavity enhanced absorption spectroscopy(TD-BBCEAS)technique for online measurement of total NOy in the atmosphere was developed.With this method,the NOy was efficiently converted into NO2,and the total NOy concentration in the atmosphere was indirectly obtained by measuring NO2.Focusing on the key factors affecting the measurement of total NOy,the influence of NO titration efficiency and other NOy component TD efficiency on measurement accuracy was emphasized.By changing the oxygen(O2)flow rate through the mercury lamp to alter the O3 concentration for titrating NO,the conversion efficiency of NO was evaluated.At O2 flow rate of 6 mL/min,the conversion efficiency of NO was greater than 99%.TD efficiency testing and analysis on NO2,peroxyacetyl nitrate(PAN),nitric acid(HNO3),and nitrous acid(HONO),which account for a large proportion of atmospheric NOy components,was carried out using 680℃as the optimal TD temperature for efficient conversion of NOy.With NO and HONO sample gases as typical verification gases,the conversion efficiency of NOy and the accuracy of NOy measurement by TD-BBCEAS system were verified by switching the on and off modes of mercury lamp and TD device.At integration time of 60 s,the detection limit of the system for NOy was 2.83×1010 molecules/cm3(60 s,2σ).A comparative measurement of actual atmospheric NOy was conducted between the TD-BBCEAS system and the NOy analyzer.The observation results showed a correlation coefficient(R2)of 0.98 and a slope of 0.93,further verifying the feasibility and accuracy of applying the TD-BBCEAS system to measurement of total NOy.
