Objective: To assess the nutritional supply status of school meals for primary and secondary school students in Henan Province, so as to provide a basis for scientific guidance of school meals. Methods: During 2021-2023, 115 lunch and dinner samples were collected from 25 primary and secondary schools in Zhoukou, Anyang and Luoyang of Henan Province by a direct selection method, and 13 nutrients were determined for each sample. The nutrient supply was evaluated based on Nutrition Guidelines of School Meals and Reference Intake of Dietary Nutrients for Chinese Residents (2023 Edition). Mann-Whitney U test was used to compare the differences of nutritional supply between urban and rural schools. Results: The median values for energy (709.77 kcal,1 kcal=4.18 kJ), fat energy supply ratio (0.27) and carbohydrate energy supply ratio (0.55) in the 66 lunches and dinners from primary school were within the recommended range. The supply of protein (28.39 g) and sodium (1 464.59 mg) was excessive. The median values of zinc (2.62 mg) and dietary fiber (5.19 g) were lower than the reference values. No statistically significant differences were observed in the supply of 13 nutrients between urban and rural primary schools( U = 427.00 -633.00, P > 0.05 ). Among 49 samples from secondary schools, the median value of energy supply (930.02 kcal), carbohydrate energy ratio ( 0.54 ) and fat energy supply ratio(0.25) were within the recommended range; and the median values of protein (38.82 g) and sodium (2 556.80 mg) were higher than the standard; and the median values of calcium (250.32 mg) and vitamin B1 (0.16 mg) were lower than the standard. Additionally, the differences in the level of vitamin B2 ( U =372.00) and zinc ( U =375.00) between the urban and rural secondary schools were statistically significant ( P <0.05). Conclusion Nutrient supply of primary and secondary school meals in three cities of Henan Province is inadequate and imbalanced, and the recipe need to be further optimized and improved.

Objective To determine the effect of thalamic nucleus reuniens(RE)on sleep spindles and neuronal activity in the medial prefrontal cortex(mPFC)during non-rapid eye movement(NREM)sleep.Methods Thirteen wild-type C57BL/6 male mice(8～12 weeks old,weighing 22～28 g)were randomly divided into an experimental group(n=7)and a control group(n=6).Optogenetic inhibition combined with multi-channel recording technology was used to specifically inhibit RE projections to mPFC during NREM sleep with yellow light for 20 s,in a 5-min interval between 2 times of light stimuli.The types and distribution of neurons were identified based on the waveform width and firing frequency of neurons.The changes in spindle activity in the mPFC following inhibition,as well as in firing of interneurons and pyramidal neurons were analyzed.Results Morphological data confirmed that neural fibers originating from the RE densely projected to the mPFC,primarily distributed in the deep layers.In the experimental group,light stimulation significantly affected the spindle activity in the mPFC when compared with the period before light stimulation,mainly manifested as a decrease in spindle rate,central frequency,and peak-to-peak amplitude(P<0.05).However,no impacts on spindle duration,number of cycles,symmetry,and power were observed.Meanwhile,there were no significant changes in the spindle activity of the control group.The proportion of interneurons in the mPFC area was 21.9%,while pyramidal neurons accounted for 78.1%.The firing rates of interneurons in the experimental group decreased significantly during light stimulation(P<0.05),whereas there was no significant change in the firing rates of pyramidal neurons.In addition,the firing activities of both interneurons and pyramidal neurons in the control group remained unaffected.Conclusion During NREM sleep,RE inputs may participate in the generation of sleep spindles network oscillations in the mPFC by activating interneurons.

Objective The aim of this study was to investigate the key genes that regulate colorectal cancer(CRC)metasta-sis,evaluate the effects of exosomal miR-151A-3P derived from CRC on the proliferation and migration,and explore the possibility of exosomal miR-151A-3P as a prognostic biomarker for CRC patients.Methods High-throughput sequencing was performed to screen the differentially expressed miRNAs in serum exosomes of metastatic CRC patients.RT-qPCR was used to verify the expression of differentially expressed miRNAs in CRC specimens.After mimics overexpression or knockdown of miR-151A-3P,CCK-8 and EdU assays were used to detect cell proliferation,and Scratch wound healing and Transwell assays were used to detect cell migration and in-vasion capability.A BALB/c nude mouse model was used to evaluate the effect of exosomal miR-151A-3P on the metastatic ability of CRC cells.Results The sequencing results showed that compared with non-metastatic CRC patients,the expression of miR-151A-3P was significantly increased in serum exosomes of metastatic CRC patients(P<0.001).The results were validated by RT-qPCR and found that miR-151A-3P was highly expressed in both serum exosomes and tumor tissues of metastatic CRC patients(P<0.001).The overall survival of CRC patients with high expression of serum exosomal miR-151A-3P was shorter than that of CRC pa-tients with low expression(P=0.029).After silencing miR-151A-3P,the cell proliferation,migration,and invasion abilities of CRC cells were decreased(P<0.05),while overexpression of miR-151A-3P could promote the proliferation,migration and invasion of CRC cells(P<0.05).In the BALB/c nude mouse colorectal cancer model,the administration of exosomal miR-151A-3P led to an increase in the number of lung metastases in BALB/c nude mice(P<0.05).Conclusion CRC-derived exosomal miR-151A-3P promotes the proliferation and migration of CRC cells,and is associated with poor prognosis of CRC patients.

Objective:To explore the relationship between college students' Type D personality and problematic social media usage, as well as the mediating and moderating roles of cognitive flexibility.Methods:From April to July 2024, totally 489 college students were investigated using the problematic social media use scale, cognitive flexibility scale and type D personality scale. SPSS 27.0 was used for descriptive analysis, correlation analysis, moderating effect analysis and common method bias test. AMOS 26.0 was used to analyze the mediating effect relationship.Results:(1) Type D personality (26.68±11.62) was positively correlated with problematic social media usage(18.11±3.54)( r=0.46, P<0.01). (2) Flexible control played a partial mediating role in the relationship between Type D personality and problematic social media usage (effect value=0.23, 95% CI=0.12-0.33). (3) Type D personality college students’ flexible control moderated the effect of Type D personality on independent problematic social media usage( β=-0.542, P<0.05). Conclusion:The increased cognitive flexibility helps mitigate college students' levels of problematic social media usage. For college students with low cognitive flexibility, type D personality scores had a more significant effect on problematic social media usage.

Objective:To explore the effects of holmium laser enucleation of the prostate with early complete transection of the urethral mucosa at the tip of the prostate on urinary control function and sexual function in patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).Methods:Eighty patients with BPH who underwent holmium laser enucleation of the prostate in the Affiliated Hospital of Yan′an University from January 2019 to January 2023 were collected as the research subjects. The patients were divided into the observation group and the control group by the random number table method, with 40 cases in each group. The observation group underwent early holmium laser enucleation of the prostate with early complete transection of the urethral mucosa at the tip of the prostate, while the control group underwent conventional holmium laser prostatectomy. The general conditions, urinary control function and sexual function of the two groups of patients after the operation were compared. The adverse ejaculation conditions 6 months after the operation were recorded.Results:There was no statistically significant difference in age and prostate volume between the two groups of patients (all P>0.05). The operation time, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative indwelling urinary catheter time and postoperative hospital stay in the observation group were significantly less than those in the control group (all P<0.05). The International Prostate Symptom Scale (IPSS) score, Quality of Life (QOL) score, the maximum flow rate (Qmax), and post void residual (PVR) in the bladder of the two groups of patients 6 months after the operation were compared with those before the operation, and the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05), while there were no statistically significant differences between the groups (all P>0.05). There were no statistically significant differences in the International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF-5) scores and Erection Hardness Grading Scale (EHGS) grades of the two groups of patients 6 months after surgery compared with those before surgery (all P>0.05), and there were also no statistically significant differences between the groups (all P>0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in the ejaculation function score and ejaculation distress score 6 months after the operation in the observation group compared with those before the operation (all P>0.05), while in the control group, the ejaculation function score 6 months after the operation was lower than that before the operation, and the ejaculation distress score was higher than that before the operation (all P<0.05). The ejaculation function score and ejaculation distress score of the observation group 6 months after the operation were significantly better than those of the control group (all P<0.05). The incidences of retrograde ejaculation and reduced semen volume 6 months after the operation in the observation group were both lower than those in the control group (all P<0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of rapid ejaculation, ejaculation pain, hematospermia, etc. between the two groups of patients 6 months after the operation (all P>0.05). Conclusions:In holmium laser enucleation of the prostate, early complete transection of the urethral mucosa at the tip of the prostate has an improving effect on urinary control function and sexual function in patients with BPH, and increases the confidence in postoperative life and satisfaction with orgasm of BPH patients.

Objective:To examine the relationships between perceived organizational support in job resources, self-efficacy in personal resources, and teaching commitment based on the job requirement-resource model, and to explore the path of influencing clinical teachers' teaching commitment.Methods:Using the convenience sampling method, 463 clinical teachers from 16 university-affilicated hospitals in Shandong Province, China were selected as the study subjects. Surveys were conducted using the Perceived Organizational Support Scale, Self-efficacy Scale, and Teaching Commitment Scale. A statistical analysis was performed using SPSS 26.0. A structural equation model was constructed using AMOS 26.0 to test the mediation effect.Results:①The level of teaching commitment of clinical teachers was relatively high, with a total score of (45.25±9.21) points. The total score of perceived organizational support was (38.22±9.75) points, and the total score of self-efficacy was (112.27±17.30) points. ②Perceived organizational support and self-efficacy were positively correlated with teaching commitment ( r=0.59, r=0.65, both P<0.01). ③ Perceived organizational support had significant and direct positive effects on teaching commitment and self-efficacy ( β=0.36, β=0.51, both P<0.01). Self-efficacy significantly and positively affected teaching commitment ( β=0.47, P<0.01). Self-efficacy played a significant and partial mediating role in the effect of perceived organizational support on teaching commitment (standardized mediating effect value of 0.239, P<0.01), and the mediating effect percentage was 39.83%. Conclusions:Perceived organizational support not only directly predicts clinical teachers' teaching commitment, but also indirectly affects teaching commitment through self-efficacy. University-affiliated hospital administrators should pay attention to clinical teachers' perceived organizational support to improve their self-efficacy and teaching commitment, thereby ensuring teaching quality.

Objective To explore the relationship between serum S100 calcium-binding protein(S100)A4,S100A12 and the infection type and prognosis of neonatal infectious pneumonia(NIP).Methods A total of 300 children with NIP admitted to the Neijiang Second People's Hospital from January 2021 to March 2024 were selected and divided into the bacterial infection group(214 cases)and the non-bacterial infection group(86 cases)according to the types of pathogenic bacteria.Another 150 healthy newborns in the same hospital during the same period were selected as the control group.The levels of serum S100A4 and S100A12 were de-tected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.Pearson correlation analysis was conducted to examine the cor-relations between serum S100A4,S100A12 and procalcitonin(PCT),white blood cell count(WBC),albumin(Alb),and platelet count(PLT).The receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was used to evaluate the differential value of serum S100A4,S100A12,PCT,WBC,Alb,and PLT alone and in combination for NIP bac-terial infection.According to the prognosis,children with NIP were divided into the poor prognosis group(63 cases)and the good prognosis group(237 cases).Multivariate Logistic regression model was used to analyze the influencing factors of poor prognosis in children with NIP,and ROC curve was used to analyze the value of each factor in predicting poor prognosis in children with NIP.Results The levels of serum S100A4,S100A12,PCT,WBC,and PLT in the bacterial infection group were higher than those in the non-bacterial infection group and the control group,while Alb was lower than that in the non-bacterial infection group and the control group,the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).Pearson correlation analysis showed that serum S100A4 and S100A12 in children with NIP were positively correlated with PCT,WBC and PLT(P<0.05),and negatively correlated with Alb(P<0.05).The results of ROC curve analysis showed that the area under the curve(AUC)of serum S100A4 and S100A12 in differentiating NIP infection types was slightly lower than that of PCT,WBC,Alb,and PLT in differentiating NIP infection types.The results of multivariate Logistic re-gression analysis showed that elevated S100A4,elevated S100A12,elevated PCT,bacterial infection,and lung consolidation were independent risk factors for poor prognosis in children with NIP(P<0.05).The AUC of bacterial infection,lung consolidation,PCT,S100A4,and S100A12 for predicting the poor prognosis of chil-dren with NIP was 0.903.It was greater than the AUC predicted separately by bacterial infection,lung consol-idation,PCT,S100A4,and S100A12 levels(Z=9.989,9.460,5.514,4.084,4.376,P<0.001).Conclusion The combination of serum S100A4 and S100A12 with traditional markers has certain discrimina-tory value for the infection types of NIP,and the levels of serum S100A4 and S100A12 are related to the prog-nosis of NIP.

Objective:To prepare decellularized extracellular matrix (dECM)-gelatin methacryloyl (GelMA) composite hydrogels and to study their effects on hepatocyte proliferation.Methods:Hepatic dECM was prepared by elution, and GelMA hydrogel and 10%, 30% and 50% dECM-GelMA composite hydrogels were prepared by pepsin solubilization. The morphology of normal liver and dECM liver was observed by eyes and scanning electron microscopy using hematoxylin-eosin, Sirius red and periodate-Schiff staining, respectively. The internal structure of the dECM-GelMA composite hydrogels was observed by scanning electron microscopy, and the pore diameter was measured. Liver HL-7702 cells were co-cultured with GelMA hydrogel and 10%, 30% and 50% dECM-GelMA composite hydrogels, and the cell proliferation viability was determined by cell counting kit-8. The expression of proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA), Wnt family protein 5a (Wnt5a), β-catenin, extracellular-regulated protein kinase 1/2 (ERK1/2) and phosphorylated ERK1/2 (p-ERK1/2) were detected by Western blotting. Comparisons were made using independent sample t-test or one-factor analysis of variance. Results:After decellularization, the hepatocyte morphology showed rounded depressions, and the extracellular matrix structure was intact. The GelMA hydrogel and 10%, 30% and 50% dECM-GelMA composite hydrogels showed inernally porous structures. The pore diameter increased from (3.06±1.35) μm in the GelMA hydrogel to (16.01±4.02) μm in the 50% dECM-GelMA composite hydrogel. On the 3rd, 5th and 7th day, the relative cell proliferation was higher in the 50% dECM-GelMA composite hydrogel group than that in the GelMA hydrogel group (1.89±0.04 vs 1.53±0.01, 9.36±0.04 vs 3.89±0.09, 7.15±0.27 vs 4.89±0.15, all P<0.05). The relative expression levels of PCNA, Wnt5a, β-catenin, and p-ERK1/2/ERK1/2 proteins in the 50% dECM-GelMA composite hydrogel group were higher than those in the GelMA hydrogel group (2.14±0.04 vs 1.00±0.03, 2.36±0.09 vs 1.00±0.08, 1.45±0.03 vs 1.00±0.04, 1.43±0.04 vs 1.00±0.01, all P<0.05). Conclusions:A dECM-GelMA composite hydrogel can be prepared, which may promote hepatocyte proliferation by upregulating the phosphorylation of ERK1/2 and activating Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway.
