Objective: To explore the effects of personality and sleep quality with psychological distress of junior and senior high school stduents, so as to provide a reference basis for precise interventions of junior and senior high school students mental health. Methods: In October 2023, a convenience sampling method was used to select 9 034 students aged 12-17 from Shiyan City as the study subjects. The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) and Kessler Psychological Distress Scale (K10) were used to collect information on sleep quality and psychological distress of junior and senior high school stduents. Between group comparison was conducted by using t-test and Chi-square test. Generalized linear models were employed to analyze the interaction and joint effects of personality and sleep quality on psychological distress. Results: The generalized linear model analysis showed that the interaction between personality and sleep quality on psychological distress was statistically significant of junior and senior high school students(effect size=0.80, P <0.01). The general linear model analysis indicated that, after adjusting for variables such as age, gender, screen time, and daily sitting time with the extroverted and good sleep quality group as the reference, the introverted and poor sleep quality group had the largest mean difference in psychological distress scores (difference=0.51, P <0.05). When stratified by sleep quality, psychological distress scores were higher in the introverted and neutral personality groups with both poor and good sleep quality compared to the extroverted group (poor sleep quality: introverted difference=3.71, neutral difference=1.14; good sleep quality: introverted difference=2.23, neutral difference=0.57, all P < 0.05). When stratified by personality, psychological distress scores were higher in the poor sleep quality groups for introverted, neutral, and extroverted individuals compared to their good sleep quality counterparts (differences=8.66, 7.83, 7.34, all P < 0.05 ). Conclusions Personality and sleep quality have interactive and joint effects on psychological distress of junior and senior high school stduents. Personalized psychological interventions should be developed based on personality and sleep quality.

Body weight abnormalities, including overweight, obesity, and underweight, have become a dual public health challenge in Chinese adults: overweight and obesity lead to a variety of chronic complications, while underweight increases the risks of malnutrition, sarcopenia, and organ dysfunction. To systematically address these issues, multidisciplinary experts in endocrinology, sports science, nutrition, and psychiatry from various regions have held multiple weight management seminars. Based on the latest epidemiological data and clinical evidence, they expanded the guideline to include assessment and intervention strategies for underweight, in addition to the core content of obesity management. This guideline outlines the etiological mechanisms, evaluation methods, and multidimensional management strategies for overweight and obesity, covering key areas such as diagnosis and assessment, medical nutrition therapy, exercise prescription, pharmacological intervention, and psychological support. It is intended to provide a scientific and standardized approach to weight management across the adult population, aiming to curb the rising prevalence of obesity, mitigate complications associated with abnormal body weight, and improve nutritional status and overall quality of life.

The molecular mechanisms underlying the develop-ment and metastasis of prostate cancer remain elusive.This comprehensive review delves into the intricate role of cofilin,an actin-binding protein,in the pathogenesis and progression of prostate cancer.Cofilin is a significant protein in cytoskeletal dynamics,and any dysregulation may result in the morphological changes in normal cells and the invasion and metastasis of tumor cells.Research has revealed that the activity of cofilin is regula-ted by various mechanisms,including phosphorylation/dephos-phorylation and interactions with other molecules.Moreover,this review discusses promising therapeutic interventions,such as co-filin inhibitors and gene therapy,which have demonstrated effica-cy in preclinical models.The challenge of clinically preventing the transition to castration-resistant prostate cancer and tumor metastasis is widely recognized,necessitating the development of precise drug treatments and biomarker identification.As a key regulatory protein,cofilin provides a more comprehensive refer-ence for the prevention and treatment of prostate diseases.

Objective To investigate 5-aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide ribonucleotide formyl transferase/inosine monophos-phate cyclohydrolase(ATIC),a key regulator of metabolism and cell proliferation,to explore its role in glioma proliferation,e-valuate its association with patient prognosis,and elucidate the underlying molecular mechanisms.Methods Using data from The Cancer Genome Atlas(TCGA),Genotype-Tissue Expression(GTEx),and Chinese Glioma Genome Atlas(CGGA)databas-es,we analyzed differential ATIC expression between tumor tissues and adjacent normal tissues in glioma patients,as well as its correlation with clinical features including pathological grade,isocitrate dehydrogenase(IDH)mutation status,and chromosome 1p/19q deletion.ATIC was knocked down using siRNA transfection.The effect of ATIC on the proliferation of glioma cell lines(LN229,U373,and U251)was evaluated using EdU,CCK-8,and colony formation assays.Furthermore,ATIC overexpression via plasmid transfection was analyzed in conjunction with flow cytometry and Western blotting analysis to assess cell cycle pro-gression and cyclin-related protein expression.Results ATIC expression was significantly elevated in glioma tissues compared to adjacent normal tissues(P＜0.01).Patients with high ATIC expression exhibited shorter overall survival(OS)and were asso-ciated with higher pathological grades,wild-type IDH status,and the presence of chromosome 1p/19q deletion.Compared with U373 and U251 glioma cell lines,LN229 and U87 glioma cell lines demonstrated higher ATIC expression.In siRNA-mediated ATIC knockdown models(siATIC-LN229,siATIC-U373),cell proliferation was suppressed as demonstrated by EdU,CCK-8,and colony formation assays,whereas ATIC overexpression in U251 cells promoted proliferation.Flow cytometry revealed G1-phase arrest and impaired S-phase progression in siATIC-LN229 cells.Conversely,ATIC overexpression in U251 cells decreased G1-phase accumulation and increased S-phase progression.Mechanistically,ATIC knockdown decreased the expression of phos-phorylated Rb(p-Rb),upregulated p21,and downregulated key cyclin-related proteins essential for G1/S transition.In contrast,ATIC overexpression facilitated the G1/S transition through p21 downregulation and enhanced phosphorylation of Rb pro-tein.Conclusion High ATIC expression is associated with poor clinical outcomes in glioma patients and may promote tumor progression through regulation of the p21-Rb signaling pathway.Therefore,ATIC represents a promising biomarker for both clinical diagnosis and prognosis in glioma.

Objective To determine KCNJ14 gene expression in human glioma cells and assess its impact on U251 cell pro-liferation,while exploring the potential mechanism involved.Methods The protein expression levels of KCNJ14 in different hu-man glioma cell lines(U87,U251,SNB19,and LN229)were analyzed by Western blotting.KCNJ14 was knocked down and over-expressed in U251 cells using siRNA and plasmid transfection,respectively.Subsequently,protein expression levels,cell prolif-eration capacity,and the regulation of cell cycle related proteins were measured in each group.The association between KCNJ14 mRNA expression and clinical survival prognosis in glioma patients was evaluated through statistical analysis of public databas-es.Results KCNJ14 protein expression varied across different human glioma cell lines,with the highest level observed in U251 cells.Inhibition of KCNJ14 suppressed U251 cell proliferation and impaired cell cycle progression.Bioinformatics analysis re-vealed that KCNJ14 mRNA expression was significantly associated with clinical characteristics and survival outcomes in glioma patients.Conclusion KCNJ14 exhibits differential expression in glioma cells and is negatively associated with patient prognosis.Mechanistically,it may regulate glioma cell proliferation by modulating cell cycle related proteins.

Objective To detect the expression changes of citrullinated histone H3(CitH3)during the development of deep vein thrombosis(DVT)in mice,and to explore its value in estimating the time to thrombosis.Methods The inferior vena cava(IVC)of mice was ligated to establish a thrombosis model induced by congestion.Mice were sacrificed under excessive anesthesia at 0 h,1 d,3 d,5 d,7 d,10 d,14 d and 21 d after the modeling,respectively.The congested IVC segments(0 h after modeling)and the thrombosed IVC segments(1-21 days after modeling)were extracted.Immunohistochemistry and double immunofluorescence staining were used to observe the number of neutrophils and the ex-pression of CitH3 during thrombosis.Western blotting was used to detect the protein expression level of CitH3.Results During thrombosis,CitH3 was mainly expressed in neutrophils within the thrombus.A small number of neutrophils and a few CitH3-positive cells were observed at 0 h after modeling in the congested IVC.Between 1 d and 21 d after modeling,the number of neutrophils reached a peak at 1 d and gradually decreased.The number of CitH3-positive cells and their ratio to neutrophils began to increase at 1 d,reached a peak at 5 d after modeling,and then decreased.The expression level of CitH3 protein began to increase at 1 d and reached a peak at 5 d after modeling.Conclusion The expres-sion of CitH3 during DVI shows temporal changes,and is expected to become a biological marker for estimating the formation time of thrombosis.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical efficacy of Tianma Xionglin Zhixuan Tablets in treating hypertension patients with liver yang hyperactivity or comorbid phlegm-stasis syndrome and explore its therapeutic mechanisms through plasma metabolomics.Methods:Thirty-six hypertension patients(4 dropouts)diagnosed with liver yang hyperactivity or phlegm-stasis syndrome were enrolled as the treatment group from June 2022 to September 2023 at the First Affiliated Hospital of Hunan University of Chinese Medicine,while 30 healthy volunteers with balanced constitutions were recruited as the blank group.Plasma samples were collected from patients pre-and post-treatment and from healthy volunteers.Clinical outcomes,including syndrome scores,office blood pressure(BP),and 24-hour ambulatory BP,were recorded.Plasma metabolomic profiling was performed using liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry(LC-MS).Results:Compared with baseline,Tianma Xionglin Zhixuan Tablets significantly reduced traditional Chinese medicine syndrome scores(P＜0.01),office systolic/diastolic BP(P＜0.01),and 24-hour ambulatory BP parameters(24-hour mean BP,daytime/nighttime mean BP;all P＜0.01).Metabolomic analysis identified 45 differential metabolites between the blank group and pretreatment patients,and 64 metabolites altered post-treatment(VIP＞1,P＜0.05).Enrichment analysis of 16 overlapping endogenous metabolites revealed that Tianma Xionglin Zhixuan Tablets primarily modulated arachidonic acid metabolism and sphingolipid metabolism pathways.Conclusion:Tianma Xionglin Zhixuan Tablets demonstrates significant clinical efficacy in hypertension patients with liver yang hyperactivity or phlegm-stasis syndrome,potentially mediated through regulation of arachidonic acid and sphingolipid metabolism.

Objective To analyze the current status of occupational health literacy (OHL) among front-line workers in the metal products industry and to explore its influencing factors. Methods A total of 5 193 front-line workers from the metal products industry in 14 prefecture-level cities in Guangdong Province were selected as the research subjects by the stratified cluster random sampling method. The Occupational Health Literacy Questionnaire of National Key Populations was used to assess their OHL levels. To analyze the influencing factors of OHL, binary logistic regression analysis was conducted. Results The overall OHL level among the participants was 40.0% (2 079/5 193). The result of binary logistic regression analysis showed that workers with lower educational level, lower average monthly personal income, and smaller enterprise size had lower OHL levels (all P<0.01). In addition, workers in foreign-funded enterprises had higher OHL levels than those in private enterprises (P<0.01). Conclusion There remains considerable room for improvement in OHL among front-line workers in the metal products industry. Priority focus is to improve OHL among workers with lower education and income levels, as well as those employed in private and micro- or small-sized enterprises.
