Objective To investigate the post-discharge exercise behavior and factors influencing moderate to vigorous intensity physical activity (MVPA) in patients undergoing lung surgery. Methods A total of 2874 patients from the large prospective, observational perioperative lung symptom study cohort (CN-PRO-Lung 3) in the Department of Thoracic Surgery at Sichuan Cancer Hospital between April 7, 2021, and January 31, 2024, were selected as the survey subjects. A survey was conducted using the Investigation of Exercise Behavior after Lung Surgery questionnaire and the International Physical Activity Questionnaire-Short Form (IPAQ-SF) among patients who underwent lung surgery. Binary logistic regression was used to analyze the factors influencing patients’ engagement in MVPA. Results A total of 702 patients were surveyed, including 252 males and 450 females, with an average age of (52.4±10.2) years. Patients with lung cancer accounted for 85.9%. Only 36.0% of the patients had regular exercise habits, while 42.3% did not engage in any physical activity. The three main barriers for postoperative exercise were physical discomfort (pain, coughing, shortness of breath, etc, 54.7%), lack of professional guidance (41.7%), and concerns about the surgical wound (28.9%). The proportions of patients engaging in vigorous, moderate, and low-intensity physical activity were 5.7%, 28.2%, and 66.1%, respectively. Multivariate analysis showed that patients with a personal annual income ≥50000 yuan (OR=1.52, 95%CI 1.01-2.29, P=0.044), high school education or above (OR=1.92, 95%CI 1.33-2.76, P<0.001), and lobectomy (OR=1.44, 95%CI 1.02-2.03, P=0.037) engaged in more MVPA. Conclusion Patients undergoing lung surgery have inadequate physical activity after discharge, particularly lacking in MVPA. Patients with higher income, higher educational levels, and lobectomy are more frequently engaged in MVPA. Measures such as symptom control, providing exercise guidance, and enhancing education on wound care may potentially improve the inadequate physical activity in lung surgery patients after discharge.

Abstract To clarify the service targets, service contents, and safeguard mechanisms of the basic public service program for student vision health management, the study grounded in the current status of child and adolescent myopia prevention and control in China and integrated with the practical experience and innovative practices of Wuhan National Demonstration Area for Student Vision Health Management, takes education as the main thread and schools as the base, consolidating resources from multiple stakeholders including education administrative departments, schools, families, and professional technical service institutions. Centering on four core components—vision health education, monitoring and record keeping, risk prevention and control, and dynamic management, the study constructs a multi tiered basic public service system for vision health management of primary and secondary school students. It further proposes the use of an intelligent management platform and a "three tier color coded early warning" mechanism (red, yellow, blue) to prevent and control student myopia at the source, providing schools with replicable and operable implementation pathways to enhance the level of student vision health management.

Objective:To compare the effects of manual acupuncture(MA),electroacupuncture(EA),and moxibustion on knee joint cartilage morphology,serum inflammatory factors interleukin(IL)-6 and IL-10,matrix metalloproteinase 13(MMP13),and intestinal flora composition in knee osteoarthritis(KOA)model rats.Methods:Forty male specific-pathogen-free Sprague-Dawley rats aged seven weeks were randomly divided into a normal group(n=8)and a KOA modeling group(n=32).The KOA model was established using sodium iodoacetate induction.The KOA modeling rats were further randomly divided into a model group,an MA group,an EA group,and a moxibustion group,with 8 rats in each group.In the MA,EA,and moxibustion groups,interventions targeting the right Futu(ST32)and Zusanli(ST36)were performed for 15 min,once every other day,for 14 sessions.The normal and model groups were bundled on the self-made fixation frame for 15 min.The rat knee joint diameter was measured on the 8th day of adaptive feeding,after successful modeling,and after the 14th intervention.Lequesne behavioral scoring was performed after successful modeling and after the 14th intervention.After the 14th intervention,hematoxylin-eosin(HE)staining and Masson staining were performed with the cartilage sections of the right knee joint.The pathomorphological changes of the rat joint cartilage were observed and quantified by Mankin's score.Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was used to detect the rat serum levels of IL-6,IL-10,and MMP13.Additionally,16S rDNA sequencing was used to detect the composition of rat fecal flora.Results:Compared to the normal group,the right knee joint diameter and the Lequesne score were significantly increased in the model group(P<0.01).Compared to the model group,the right knee joint diameter and the Lequesne score of rats in the MA,EA,and moxibustion groups were significantly reduced(P<0.01),with no significant differences among the three intervention groups(P>0.05).HE staining and Masson staining revealed disordered cartilage structure in the model group,which was improved following interventions in the MA group,EA group,and moxibustion group.Mankin's score was significantly higher in the model group versus the normal group(P<0.05)while significantly lower in the MA,EA,and moxibustion groups versus the model group(P<0.05).Serum analysis showed elevated IL-6 and MMP13 levels and reduced IL-10 level in the model group versus the normal group(P<0.05).Compared to the model group,the serum IL-6 level was significantly reduced(P<0.05),and the IL-10 level was significantly increased(P<0.05)in the MA,EA,and moxibustion groups,but without statistical differences among the three intervention groups(P>0.05);moreover,the MMP13 level in the moxibustion group was significantly lower than that in the model group(P<0.05).The alpha diversity analysis of intestinal flora showed no statistical difference in the number of operational taxonomic units(OTUs)and alpha diversity index among groups(P>0.05).Intestinal flora beta diversity analysis revealed significant differences among groups(P<0.05).Intestinal flora composition analysis showed significantly increased relative abundance of Lactobacillus(P<0.05)and significantly decreased relative abundance of Eubacterium_coprostanoligenes(P<0.05)in the model group compared to the normal group;compared to the model group,the relative abundances of Firmicutes,Lactobacillus,and Romboutsia in the MA,EA,and moxibustion groups were significantly reduced(P<0.05);the relative abundance of Bacteroidetes and Lachnospiraceae_NK4A136 in the MA group increased significantly(P<0.05);Bacteroidetes and Ruminococcaceaae_UGC-005 increased significantly in the moxibustion group(P<0.05).Conclusion:MA,EA,and moxibustion effectively reduced knee joint swelling,improved cartilage tissue morphology,optimized intestinal flora composition,down-regulated expression levels of serum pro-inflammatory factors IL-6 and MMP13,and increased expression level of anti-inflammatory factor IL-10 in KOA rats.Among them,moxibustion exhibited the most obvious regulatory effect on inflammatory factors.

BACKGROUND:A large number of studies have shown that neurodegenerative diseases are closely related to oxidative stress injury and the imbalance of mitochondrial dynamics.Lycium barbarum polysaccharides have a neuroprotective effect.However,it is not clear whether lycium barbarum polysaccharides can ameliorate apoptosis induced by oxidative stress injury by regulating abnormal mitochondrial dynamics.OBJECTIVE:To study the effect of lycium barbarum polysaccharides on apoptosis induced by H2O2 in SH-SY5Y human neuroblastoma cells.METHODS:SH-SY5Y cells were cultured in three groups.The control group was cultured for 24 hours.The hydrogen peroxide group was treated with H2O2 for 24 hours,and the lycium barbarum polysaccharide group was treated with lycium barbarum polysaccharide for 2 hours and then treated with H2O2 for 24 hours.After treatment,the levels of malondialdehyde,glutathione,and superoxide dismutase in the precipitation of the cells were detected by kit.Mitochondrial membrane potential was detected by JC-1 kit.Cell viability was detected by MTT assay.Apoptosis was detected by TUNEL.The expression levels of mitochondrial dynamics-related proteins (phosphorylated promoter protein 1,mitochondrial fission protein 1,mitochondrial fusion protein 1,mitochondrial fusion protein 2,and optic atrophy protein 1) and apoptotic proteins (Bax,Bcl-2,and Caspase-3) were detected by immunofluorescence staining and western blot assay.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1) Compared with the control group,the levels of malondialdehyde were increased (P<0.05),and the levels of superoxide dismutase and glutathione were decreased (P<0.05) in the H2O2 group.Compared with the H2O2 group,the malondialdehyde level was decreased (P<0.05),and the superoxide dismutase and glutathione levels were increased (P<0.05) in the lycium barbarum polysaccharide group.(2) The mitochondrial membrane potential in the H2O2 group was lower than that in the control group (P<0.05),and that of lycium barbarum polysaccharide group was higher than that of the H2O2 group (P<0.05).(3) Compared with the control group,the apoptosis rate and the expression of Bax and Caspase-3 protein were increased (P<0.05),while the cell viability and the expression of Bcl-2 protein were decreased (P<0.05) in the H2O2 group.Compared with the H2O2 group,the apoptosis rate and the expression of Bax and Caspase-3 protein were decreased (P<0.05),while the cell viability and the expression of Bcl-2 protein were increased (P<0.05) in the lycium barbarum polysaccharide group.(4) Compared with the control group,the protein expression levels of phosphorylated promoter protein 1 and mitochondrial fission protein 1 were increased (P<0.05),and the protein expression levels of mitochondrial fusion protein 1,mitochondrial fusion protein 2,and optic atrophy protein 1 were decreased (P<0.05) in the H2O2 group.Compared with the H2O2 group,the protein expression levels of phosphorylated promoter protein 1 and mitochondrial fission protein 1 were decreased (P<0.05),and the protein expression levels of mitochondrial fusion protein 1,mitochondrial fusion protein 2,and optic atrophy protein 1 were increased (P<0.05) in the lycium barbarum polysaccharide group.(5) These results indicate that lycium barbarum polysaccharide can improve SH-SY5Y cell apoptosis caused by oxidative stress damage by regulating mitochondrial dynamics.

Objective:To investigate the structural changes in the spinal cord in multiple sclerosis (MS) and neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders (NMOSD) and their relationship with clinical disability.Methods:This study was cross-sectional. A retrospective analysis of clinical and imaging data from 124 patients with MS (MS group), 101 patients with aquaporin-4 antibody-positive NMOSD (NMOSD group), and 110 healthy controls (HC group) from seven medical centers were conducted from January 2018 to October 2021. All subjects underwent 3D T 1WI, and the upper cervical spinal cord cross-sectional area (MUCCA) was segmented and measured. All patients completed the expanded disability status scale (EDSS) assessments at baseline and during follow-up, as well as the baseline 25-foot walk test (T25FW) and the nine-hole peg test (NHPT). Patients were classified into EDSS progression and non-progression groups based on follow-up EDSS scores. Comparisons of MUCCA among the three groups were conducted using analysis of covariance, controlling for age and sex as covariates. Pairwise comparisons between groups were performed using the HSD test. Univariate linear regression and logistic models were employed to identify candidate predictors of baseline clinical disability status or EDSS progression in the MS and NMOSD groups. L1 regularized multivariable linear regression analysis was used to determine independent predictors of baseline clinical disability status or EDSS progression. Independent predictors were then combined to establish a logistic regression model, and the model′s performance in predicting EDSS progression was evaluated using receiver operating characteristic analysis and the area under the curve (AUC). Results:A total of 144 patients completed follow-up EDSS assessments, with a follow-up duration of 3.30 (1.10, 6.42) years, including 82 patients in the MS group and 62 patients in the NMOSD group. Controlling for sex and age as covariates, the overall difference in MUCCA among the MS, NMOSD, and HC groups was statistically significant ( P=0.001). The MUCCA in the MS group was lower than that in the HC group, with a significant difference ( t=-2.54, P=0.007); the MUCCA in the NMOSD group was also lower than that in the HC group, with a significant difference ( t=-2.80, P=0.002). However, the difference in MUCCA between the MS and NMOSD groups was not statistically significant ( t=-0.40, P=0.882). In the MS group, MUCCA was an independent predictor of baseline EDSS score (β=-0.03), baseline T25FW score (β=-0.09), and baseline NHPT score (β=-0.30). In the NMOSD group, MUCCA (β=-0.08), age (β=0.06), and baseline EDSS score (β=-0.43) were independent predictors of EDSS progression, and the logistic regression model incorporating these three factors predicted EDSS progression with an AUC of 0.82. Conclusions:Significant spinal cord atrophy occurs in patients with both MS and NMOSD. Atrophy of the upper cervical spinal cord can predict the degree of disability in MS patients and the progression of clinical disability in NMOSD patients.

Objective:To investigate the effect and mechanism of lycium barbarum polysaccharide(LBP)on lipopolysaccharide(LPS)-induced inflammatory response of NLRP3 inflammasome in BV2 microglial cells.Methods:BV2 microglial cells were routinely cultured.CCK-8 assay was used to detect the effect of different concentrations(0.5,1,1.5,2 g/L)LBP on cell activity.Cells were di-vided into three groups:control group,LPS group and LBP+LPS group.Effect of LBP on LPS-induced cell activity was detected by CCK-8 method;RT-qPCR and immunofluorescence assay were used to detect NLRP3,ASC,Caspase-1,IL-18 and IL-1β expressions.Western blot was used to detect expressions of NLRP3,ASC,Caspase-1,TLR4,MyD88,NF-κB p65,IL-18,IL-1β and TNF-α pro-teins.Results:CCK-8 assay showed that 1 g/L LBP was the most applicable.Compared with control group,cell viability in LPS group was decreased;RT-qPCR,immunofluorescence and Western blot results showed that fluorescence intensity,mRNA and protein expres-sions of NLRP3,ASC,Caspase-1,IL-18 and IL-1β were increased in LPS group.Western blot results showed that TLR4,MyD88,NF-κB p65 and TNF-α protein expressions were increased in LPS group.After LBP treatment,cell viability was increased;expres-sions of NLRP3,ASC,Caspase-1,NF-κB p65,TLR4,MyD88,IL-18,IL-1β and TNF-α were decreased.Conclusion:LBP may in-hibit LPS-induced NLRP3 inflammatory vesicles in BV2 cells via TLR4/MyD88/NF-κB signaling pathway.
