1.Relationship of physical fitness index with depressive, anxiety and stress symptoms among college students
Chinese Journal of School Health 2025;46(11):1615-1620
Objective:
To investigate the association between the physical fitness index (PFI) and symptoms of depressive, anxiety and stress symptoms among college students, providing a reference for mental health interventions.
Methods:
From June to September 2025, combined convenience and cluster random sampling approach was used to administer questionnaire surveys and perform physical fitness tests on 2 712 college students from Zhejiang Chinese Medical University. The Depression Anxiety Stress Scales-21 Items (DASS-21) was used to assess mental health status. Chi square test and multivariate Logistic regression analysis were used to determine the associations between the PFI and the PFI component indicators with depressive, anxiety and stress symptoms.
Results:
The prevalence of depressive, anxiety and stress among college students were 24.26%, 33.22% and 13.68%, respectively. Statistically significant differences in the prevalence of these symptoms were detected across groups differing in sleep quality, physical activity, weekly breakfast frequency, and history of low back or neck pain ( χ 2=9.33-151.83, all P <0.05). After adjusting for confounding factors, Logistic regression revealed that the moderate and high PFI groups had significantly reduced risks of depressive and anxiety compared to the low PFI group ( OR =0.73, 0.63; 0.61, 0.72, all P <0.05). Poor speed (50 m run) and lower body strength (standing long jump) emerged as common risk factors affecting anxiety and depressive symptoms in both male and female college students (all P <0.05). Increased muscle strength (sit up for 1 min) in female students reduced the risk of depressive ( OR =0.81), anxiety ( OR =0.85), and stress symptoms ( OR =0.79) (all P <0.05). Enhanced lung capacity in male students decreased the risk of depressive ( OR =0.84) and anxiety symptoms ( OR =0.85) (both P <0.05).
Conclusions
The PFI is negatively correlated with depressive and anxiety symptoms among college students with notable gender differences. Insufficient speed and lower body explosive power represent common risk factors for mental health among male and female college students.

Objective:To establish an optimized automatic synthesis method of 18F-fallypride, and evaluate its biodistribution and microPET/CT characteristics. Methods:18F-fallypride was automatically prepared by AIO synthesis module and disposable cassette & reagents kit. The crude product was purified by a dedicated coupled column (HLB+ Alumin-N) to obtain the final product. Radiochemical purity and radiolabeling yield were determined. Parkinson′s disease (PD) model mice and rats were established. The radioactive distribution of different organs of PD model mice ( n=24) were monitored. The distribution process of the agent in the SD rat brain (PD model, n=6; normal rat, n=6) were evaluated by microPET/CT imaging. Results:The radiochemical yield of 18F-fallypride synthesized by automatic synthesis module was stable at (10±1)% ( n=5, no decay corrected). The total synthesis time was about 40 min. The radiochemical purity of 18F-fallypride was more than 95%, and the radiochemical purities were also over 95% after being stored in saline and serum for 120 min at room temperature. 18F-fallypride was mainly excreted by the kidneys, and it was less radioactive intake in the liver and spleen in PD mice. MicroPET/CT imaging showed that higher accumulation of 18F-fallypride was noted in corpus striatum and the SUV ratio of PD group was lower than that of control group (5.00±0.93 vs 6.53±1.96). Conclusion:18F-fallypride can be successfully prepared automatically by improved multifunctional module, with the advantages of convenient preparation, stable radiochemical yield, satisfying purity and quality control, so it can be used in the follow-up standardized production of Good Manufacture Practice (GMP) system.

OBJECTIVE:
To investigate the effect of nasal instillation of vitamin D3 on patients with allergic rhinitis symptoms including nasal itching, sneezing, clear nasal discharge, and nasal congestion.
METHOD:
Thirty subjects with allergic rhinitis proved by skin prick test (SPT) and 30 subjects with deviated septum alone were recrui ted and administrated with 300 000 IU of vitamin D3 by nasal instillation weekly. Seven days after the intervention, the four major symptoms including nasal itching, sneezing, clear nasal discharge, and nasal congestion were evaluated by score.
RESULT:
After intranasal instillation of vitamin D3, the symptoms in allergic rhinitis group in cluding nasal itching, sneezing, nasal discharge and nasal congestion, and serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D level has statistical differences (P < 0.05).
CONCLUSION
Vitamin D3 could be well absorbed through nasal mucosa. It demonstrated to have significantly effect on serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D to improve the symptoms for patients with allergic rhinitis. Vitamin D3 may be a kind of adjuvant therapy for prevention and treatment of allergic rhinitis.

Copolymer of polycaprolactone (PCL) and polylactic acid (PLA) was synthesized and catalyzed using Y (CF3COO)3/AL (I-Bu)3. The biocompatibility was evaluated by means of biochemistry, immunocytochemistry, and by cytotoxity test. This novel orthopedic biodegradable polymer can serve as an ideal orthopedic biodegradable implants, and adjustment of molecular weight and ratio of polymers can control its degradation period.
