Objective: To examine the prevalence of e-cigarette use and associated factors among primary and secondary school students in Pudong New Area, Shanghai, and to explore the pathways linking harm perception of e-cigarettes, interpersonal social influence, and attitudes toward e-cigarette use with experimentation behavior, in order to provide scientific basis for further optimizing the prevention and control strategies of e-cigarette among adolescents. Methods: From September to October 2025, a multi stage cluster random sampling method was used to select 5 144 primary and secondary school students aged 8-19 years from 47 primary and secondary schools in Pudong New Area, Shanghai, to conduct an anonymous questionnaire survey. The questionnaire collected information on e-cigarette use, harm perception of e-cigarette, interpersonal social influence, and attitudes toward e-cigarette use. The Chi-square test was applied to analyze the differences in cigarette and e-cigarette use behavior among primary and secondary school students with different demographic characteristics. Structural equation modeling (SEM) was constructed using Mplus 8.3 software, and the bootstrap method was utilized to test the mediating effects. Results: The reported rates of cigarette experimentation, e-cigarette experimentation, and current e-cigarette use among primary and secondary school students were 1.85%, 2.10%, and 0.70%, respectively. Higher reporting rates of e-cigarette experimentation were observed among boys (2.82%), secondary school students aged 16-19 (3.39%), senior high school students (3.05%), and those with weekly pocket money >100 yuan ( 6.11% ) ( χ 2=11.67, 8.61, 8.00, 54.18, all P <0.05). Structural pathway analysis results demonstrated that e-cigarette harm perception positively predicted interpersonal social influence ( β =0.61) and e-cigarette use attitude ( β = 0.53 ), and interpersonal social influence ( β =0.65) and e-cigarette use attitude ( β =0.25) further promoted e-cigarette experimentation behavior among primary and secondary school students (all P <0.01), with interpersonal social influence playing a major mediating role (indirect effect=0.40). Conclusions E-cigarette experimentation behavior among primary and secondary school students in Pudong New Area is jointly influenced by multiple psychosocial factors. Intervention strategies should strengthen interpersonal social factors such as family and peers on the basis of health education, thereby constructing a comprehensive prevention and control strategy for e-cigarette use among primary and secondary school students.

ObjectiveTo investigate the molecular mechanism of kaempferol-induced apoptosis in hepatic stellate cells （HSC） via the mitochondrial pathway. MethodsHSC were divided into five groups： blank control， transforming growth factor-β1（TGF-β1） （10 ng/mL） group， and groups treated with different concentrations of kaempferol （8， 16， 32 µmol/L）. Cell counting kit-8（CCK-8） assay was used to evaluate chrysin's effect on HSC proliferation. Transwell assay was used to assess chrysin's impact on HSC migration. Flow cytometry was used to detect apoptosis， reactive oxygen species （ROS） expression， and mitochondrial permeability transition pore （mPTP） opening across groups. 5，5′，6，6′-Tetrachloro-1，1′，3，3′-tetraethylimidacarbocyanine iodide （JC-1） assay was used to test mitochondrial membrane potential. Western blot analysis was performed to determine the expression levels of mitochondrial apoptosis-associated proteins， namely B-cell lymphoma-2 （Bcl-2）， Bcl-2-associated X protein （Bax）， Cleaved-Caspase3， Cleaved-Caspase9， and sirtuin 3 （SIRT3）. Transmission electron microscopy was used to examine mitochondrial structural alterations. Molecular docking and kinetic simulations were used to analyze the targeted interaction between kaempferol and NAD-dependent deacetylase sirtuin-3 （SIRT3）. ResultsCompared with the blank control group： in the TGF-β1 group， HSC proliferation and migration rates increased （P<0.01）， ROS levels and mPTP opening both increased （P<0.05）， the JC-1 red/green fluorescence ratio increased （P<0.01）， and the expression of Cleaved-Caspase-3， Cleaved-Caspase-9 and Bcl-2 increased （P<0.05）， whilst SIRT3 expression decreased （P<0.01）； the number of mitochondria increased （P<0.05）， and mitochondrial length decreased （P<0.01）. Compared with the TGF-β1 group： treatment with all groups of kaempferol reduced HSC proliferation and migration rates （P<0.01）， whilst simultaneously increasing the HSC apoptosis rate （P<0.01）； HSC ROS levels and mPTP opening both increased （P<0.05）； the JC-1 red/green fluorescence ratio decreased （P<0.01）， and the expression levels of Bax， Cleaved-Caspase-3 and Cleaved-Caspase-9 were upregulated （P<0.01）， whilst the expression levels of Bcl-2 and SIRT3 were downregulated （P<0.01）， and the number of mitochondria increased （P<0.05）； mitochondrial length was reduced （P<0.01）. Molecular docking and dynamics simulations revealed that the docking energy for kaempferol with SIRT3 was 108.89 kcal/mol； the RMSD curve stabilized after 20 ns； and RMSF analysis indicated that most residues exhibited minimal fluctuations. ConclusionKaempferol induces HSC apoptosis through the mitochondrial pathway， potentially via targeting SIRT3 and disrupting mitochondrial function.

As a new generation of time-of-flight mass spectrometry,multiple-reflection time-of-flight mass spectrometry(MR-TOF-MS)has been increasingly applied in the fields such as nuclear physics,chemistry,and biology due to its ultra-high resolution and rapid analysis capabilities.However,the analytical performance of MR-TOF-MS largely depends on the ion bunch state entering the mass analyzer.In this study,a rectangular ion trap(RIT)was developed,designed and processed using printed circuit board technology,as an ion accumulating and focusing device for MR-TOF mass analyzer.Compared to traditional ion traps composed of two sets of planar electrodes,this RIT had higher voltage utilization efficiency,resulting in more efficient ion collection and focusing.The ions were cooled to a sufficiently small bunch for precise mass measurement with MR-TOF-MS mass spectrometry in only 1 ms of cooling time in the RIT,then orthogonally ejected to the MR-TOF mass spectrometer for mass analysis.Experimental results indicated that the working cycle,ion flux,and ion focusing state of the RIT fully met the requirements of the MR-TOF mass analyzer.When coupled with the MR-TOF mass analyzer,the RIT enabled MR-TOF-MS to achieve a mass resolution of 1.5×105.

Risks of food safety induced by small molecule drug residues in animal food and environment have become an increasing public concern,so it is necessary to develop highly sensitive and easy-to-operate techniques to detect small molecules.Herein,a metasurface plasma resonance(MetaSPR)sensor chip coupled with gold nanoparticles(AuNPs)was developed for detection of enrofloxacin(ENR)based on competitive immunoassay.The detection range of the sensor for ENR was 0.025-3.2 ng/mL,and the detection limit(3σ)was 20 pg/mL.The biosensor showed excellent performance including high selectivity,good stability,ease to operate and high throughput,etc.The developed method was applied to detection of ENR residues in real samples,with recoveies of 96.0% -105.0%.The proposed sensing strategy provided new technique reference for detection of other small molecules in the field of residue analysis in food safety and environment monitoring.

In this work,a fluorescent probe PIN was synthesized using indole-3-carbohydrazide and pyrenecarboxaldehyde as raw materials.PIN showed weak fluorescence emission in aqueous solution with acetonitrile volume fraction of 70％.However,when Cu2+was added to this aqueous solution of PIN,a new fluorescence emission peak appeared at 495 nm,and the intensity of this peak gradually increased with the increase of concentration of Cu2+,and also caused a significant change in the fluorescence color of the solution.In contrast,the addition of 15 kinds of other common metal ions did not cause such change.The detection limit of PIN for Cu2+was 78.7 nmol/L,which was much lower than the maximum permitting level of Cu2+in drinking water in hygienic standard for drinking water in China.Therefore,PIN was a highly selective and sensitive fluorescence-enhanced probe for Cu2+.Meanwhile,the addition of Cu2+could also cause a new absorption peak at 440 nm in the ultraviolet-visible absorption spectrum of the aqueous solution of PIN,and meanwhile the colorless PIN solution changed into yellow,exhibiting the performance of PIN as a colorimetric probe for Cu2+.By fitting with the Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm equation,the binding ratio of PIN to Cu2+was 2:1,and the binding constant was 3.42×1012 L2/mol2.In addition,the binding mode of PIN with Cu2+was explored by using proton nuclear magnetic resonance(1H NMR)titration experiments and density functional theory simulations.The results showed that the addition of Cu2+could cause the aggregation of PIN molecules to form excimers,thus showing highly selective recognition.Finally,PIN was made into a simple test strip,which could achieve rapid and convenient fluorescence detection of Cu2+in actual water samples.

China emerges as a major country in nuclear energy development and the application of nuclear and radiologic technology. The diagnosis and treatment of acute radiation syndrom (ARS) caused by external irradiation represent a core function in the country′s medical rescue of nuclear and radiological emergencies. Clinically, ARS manifests hematopoietic, gastrointestinal, cutaneous, and central nervous system syndromes, with specific clinical manifestations, signs, severity, and prognosis strongly correlated with radiation dose. China has established a number of national and provincial centers for treating radiation-induced damage. Nevertheless, most medical staff have limited experience in ARS treatment. This consensus presents a summary of recent experience in treating ARS of China. In combination with recommendations from international organizations such as the World Health Organization (WHO), this consensus proposes key evidence of critical clinical issues of ARS, covering all links in the rescue of external irradiation-induced ARS. Initially, clinical diagnosis, syndromes, and severe degrees should be determined based on clinical symptoms and dose estimates. It is necessary to normalize clinical treatment measures for hematopoietic recovery, gastrointestinal injury treatment, infection control, symptomatic treatment, and multi-organ function preservation. To this end, this consensus offers cautions. This consensus provides principles of treatment with traditional Chinese medicine, psychological intervention, and follow-up. Additionally, it highlights multidisciplinary collaboration. It is recommended that this consensus be applied in relevant treatment centers.

Objective:To explore the relationship between peripheral blood microRNA-29b (miR-29b), fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23), adiponectin (ADP) and disease progression as well as bone metabolism disorders in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD).Methods:A total of 106 CKD patients diagnosed in the Department of Nephrology, the First People′s Hospital of Hefei from February 2022 to February 2024 were selected as the CKD group, and 103 healthy subjects who underwent physical examination during the same period were selected as the control group. Differences in peripheral blood miR-29b, ADP, FGF23, serum calcium, serum phosphorus, alkaline phosphatase (ALP), 25-hydroxyvitamin D, and renal function levels between the two groups were compared. The CKD group was stratified according to CKD stages, and the above indicators were compared. Simple linear correlation analysis was used to analyze the correlation between miR-29b, ADP, FGF23 and bone metabolism indicators.Results:The levels of peripheral blood ADP and FGF23 in the CKD group were higher than those in the control group, while the level of miR-29b was lower, with statistically significant differences (all P<0.05). The levels of serum phosphorus, ALP, serum creatinine, and 24-hour urinary protein in the CKD group were higher than those in the control group, while the levels of serum calcium and 25-hydroxyvitamin D were lower, with statistically significant differences (all P<0.05). Among the 106 CKD patients, there were 8 cases in CKD stage 1, 22 in stage 2, 38 in stage 3, 32 in stage 4, and 6 in stage 5. The levels of peripheral blood ADP and FGF23 in patients with CKD stages 4-5 were higher than those in patients with CKD stages 1-3, while the level of miR-29b was lower, with statistically significant differences (all P<0.05). The levels of serum phosphorus, ALP, serum creatinine, and 24-hour urinary protein in patients with CKD stages 4-5 were higher than those in patients with CKD stages 1-3, while the levels of serum calcium and 25-hydroxyvitamin D were lower, with statistically significant differences (all P<0.05). In CKD patients, peripheral blood miR-29b was positively correlated with serum calcium and 25-hydroxyvitamin D (all P<0.05), and negatively correlated with ALP ( P<0.05). Peripheral blood ADP in CKD patients was negatively correlated with serum calcium ( P<0.05) and positively correlated with ALP ( P<0.05). Peripheral blood FGF23 in CKD patients was negatively correlated with serum calcium ( P<0.05) and positively correlated with ALP ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The levels of peripheral blood ADP and FGF23 in CKD patients are significantly increased, and the level of miR-29b is significantly decreased, which are related to disease progression and bone metabolism disorders in CKD patients.

Objective:To analyze the clinical features, imaging features and diagnosis and treatment process of a female pelvic epithelioid inflammatory myofibroblastic sarcoma (EIMS) with peritoneal metastasis, so as to improve the clinical understanding and diagnostic ability of the disease and avoid misdiagnosis and missed diagnosis.Methods:The clinical data of a female patient with pelvic EIMS combined with peritoneal metastasis in the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University were retrospectively analyzed.Results:The triad examination of the patient involved an irregular solid mass in the pelvic cavity about 8.0 cm×9.0 cm in size. Laboratory examination revealed human epididymal protein 4(HE4)154.00 pmol/L. The ultrasonography showed multiple low-echo masses in deep pelvic cavity with unclear boundary and uneven internal echo, and color doppler flow imaging (CDFI) showed abundant internal blood flow signals. Enhanced CT showed uneven and obvious enhancement of the lesion. Pathological examination showed the infiltration of inflammatory cells in the mucous interstitial background. The tumor cells were round and epithelioid, with large nuclei, deep staining and obvious nucleolus. Immunohistochemistry showed anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) positive, and molecular pathology fluorescence in situ hybridization showed ALK gene amplification (positive). Combined with pathological, immunohistochemical and genetic tests, EIMS was diagnosed. Conclusions:EIMS should be considered when there are single or multiple solid or cystic nodules or masses in the pelvic cavity with obvious enhancement, invasive growth and peritoneal implantation metastasis, and the correct diagnosis can be made according to the pathological findings, immunohistochemistry and genetic test results.
