Background: Influenza A virus (IAV) is a negative-sense RNA virus of the Orthomyxoviridae family and is the etiological agent of a highly contagious acute respiratory disease that can lead to acute lung injury. Objective: To elucidate the molecular mechanisms of IAV infection, an integrative research approach combining gene expression profiling, multinetwork analysis, and in vivo experimental validations was employed. Methods: First, a series of network-based analyses were performed, including protein-protein interaction network construction, weighted gene co-expression network analysis, and subsequent gene set enrichment analysis, to identify the major underlying mechanisms of IAV infection. Following gene expression analysis, core targets, both direct and indirect regulators, were screened. An IAV (H1N1) strain A/PR/8/34-induced acute lung injury mouse model was constructed for in vivo validations. Batch one included two groups to evaluate findings from the multi-network analysis: Mock (n = 10; 5 males and 5 females) and IAV (n = 10; 5 males and 5 females). Batch two included three groups to assess the role of toll-like receptor 3 (TLR3) in IAV infection: Mock (n = 6; 3 males and 3 females), IAV (n = 6; 3 males and 3 females), and TLR3 inhibitor (n = 6; 3 males and 3 females). Body weight was measured on days 0, 3, and 5 after infection. On day 5, lung tissues were collected to assess viral load and histopathological changes. Key targets were examined using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, Western blotting, and immunofluorescence staining, both in sera and lung tissues. Results: IAV infection was significantly associated with dysregulation of the immune-inflammation system, such as the LTR, nucle-otide-binding oligomerization domain-(NOD) like receptor, retinoic acid-inducible gene I-like receptor, and nuclear factor kappa-B signaling pathways. Gene set enrichment analysis further indicated that the TLR and necroptosis signaling pathways played crucial roles in the progression of IAV infection (TLR signaling pathway normalized enrichment score = 2.3941, P = 1.00 × 10 ⁻¹⁰; necroptosis normalized enrichment score = 1.9421, P = 6.21 × 10 ⁻⁷). Among the core targets, TLR3 and mixed lineage kinase domain-like protein (MLKL) may regulate gene expression at the transcriptional level (all P < 0.05). In vivo validation using an IAV (PR8) infected acute lung injury mouse model demonstrated increased viral load and lung index, alveolar structural damage, and inflammatory cell infiltration. Immunofluorescence staining exhibited large gaps in Lamin B1 staining and breaches in Emerin signals following IAV-PR8 infection. Expression levels of TLR3, p-receptor-interacting serine/threonine-protein kinase 3 (RIPK3)/RIPK3, and p-mixed lineage kinase domain-like protein (MLKL)/MLKL proteins in lung tissues, as well as proinflammatory factors and mediators in sera, were significantly elevated after IAV infection. Moreover, enhanced neutrophil infiltration (myeloperoxidase) and citrullinated histone H3 (a neutrophil extracellular trap-specific marker), both established indicators of neutrophil extracellular trap formation, were observed. Notably, treatment with a TLR3 inhibitor significantly ameliorated IAV-induced acute lung injury by regulating necroptosis-related targets. Conclusion: Our study provides network-based in vivo evidence that TLR3-receptor-interacting serine/threonine-protein kinase 3-MLKL-mediated necroptosis may underlie IAV-induced acute lung injury and could serve as a potential therapeutic target in severe influenza cases.

Objective:To develop a staged exercise prescription for patients with Knee Osteoarthritis (KOA) based on internet information systems and evaluate its effectiveness, in order to provide a reference for exercise rehabilitation guidance for KOA patients.Methods:A systematic review of guidelines, expert consensus, systematic reviews, and evidence summaries on exercise prescriptions for osteoarthritis from January 1, 2012, to December 31, 2022, was conducted. After literature screening, semi-structured interviews, and expert consultations, a staged exercise prescription for KOA patients based on internet information systems was formulated. From April to October 2023, 90 KOA outpatients from Beijing Friendship Hospital, Capital Medical University, were selected using convenience sampling and randomly divided into the observation group and the control group, each with 45 cases. The control group received routine rehabilitation nursing, while the observation group implemented the staged exercise prescription based on the internet information system. The Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) and the Multidimensional Self-Efficacy for Exercise Scale (MSES) were used for evaluation before the intervention and at 4, 8, 16, and 24 weeks post-intervention. After the intervention, the Exercise Adherence Rating Scale (EARS) was used to assess exercise adherence in both groups.Results:A staged exercise prescription consisting of three phases and 27 items was successfully developed. At 8, 16, and 24 weeks after the intervention, the observation group had significantly lower scores in the pain, stiffness, and daily activity dimensions of the WOMAC compared to the control group, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). At the same time points, the observation group had significantly higher MSES scores than the control group, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). At 16 and 24 weeks post-intervention, the EARS scores of the observation group were also significantly higher than those of the control group, with statistically significant differences ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:The staged exercise prescription for KOA patients based on internet information systems is both scientifically valid and feasible. It can effectively alleviate knee joint symptoms, enhance exercise self-efficacy, and improve exercise adherence.

Objective:To investigate the association between different socioeconomic status (SES) levels and the incidence of sensory impairment (SI) in the Chinese population.Methods:This study adopted a prospective cohort design, utilizing data from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS) collected in July or August 2011. Participants who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria were followed up every 2-3 years until the onset of SI or the end of the follow-up period (August 2018). Based on educational attainment and annual per capita household expenditure, participants were classified into four SES groups: low, lower-middle, upper-middle, and high SES. Logistic regression was employed to analyze the relationship between different SES levels and the incidence of SI.Results:A total of 7 415 participants were included in the study, with a mean follow-up duration of 4.9 years. A total of 3 644 cases of incident SI were recorded (49.1%). Compared with the high SES group, the risk of developing SI was progressively higher in the upper-middle SES group ( OR=1.42, 95% CI: 1.03-1.96), lower-middle SES group ( OR=1.83, 95% CI: 1.29-2.60), and low SES group ( OR=2.04, 95% CI: 1.42-2.94) ( P for trend<0.001). Conclusions:SES is closely associated with new-onset SI. Enhancing SES may help reduce the risk of developing SI.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the effectiveness of the modified Lemaire procedure in anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) in patients with a highly positive pivot shift test. METHODS: The clinical data of 18 patients with anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) rupture and highly positive pivot shift test between April 2020 and September 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. There were 13 males and 5 females with an average age of 28.3 years (range, 17-41 years). Causes of injury included 11 cases of direct violence injury, including 6 cases of traffic accident injury, 4 cases of sports injury, 1 case of falling injury; 7 cases of indirect violence injury, all sports injury. All patients had complete ACL rupture, including 15 acute injuries and 3 old injuries. The preoperative pivot shift test was grade Ⅱ in 9 cases and grade Ⅲ in 9 cases. All patients were treated with ACLR combined with modified Lemaire procedure. The International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC) score and Lysholm score were used to evaluate the effectiveness before operation and at 3, 6, 12 months after operation. KT-2000 arthrometer was used to measure the anterior stability of the knee joint, and the difference between the healthy and affected sides was recorded. Pivot shift test was used to evaluate the rotational stability of the knee joint. During the follow-up, X-ray films were taken to observe the bone tunnel and internal fixation, and MRI was used to examine the healing of ACL, anterolateral collateral ligament and fibular collateral ligament grafts. RESULTS: All patients completed the operation successfully without complications such as knee joint infection, vascular and nerve injury. All patients were followed up 12-19 months (mean, 13.2 months). After operation, the rotational stability of the knee joint recovered satisfactorily, and there was no adverse symptom such as knee instability and locking at last follow-up. X-ray film and MRI showed that the bone tunnel was anatomically located and healed well, the internal fixation was in good position, and the reconstructed ACL and iliotibial band were continuous and in good tension. The IKDC score, Lysholm score, and the difference of KT-2000 between the healthy and the affected sides significantly improved at 3, 6, and 12 months after operation ( P<0.05). All the indicators further improved with time after operation, except that there was no significant difference in IKDC score between 3 and 6 months after operation and in the difference of KT-2000 between 3 months and 6, 12 months after operation ( P>0.05), and there were significant differences in other indicators between different time points ( P<0.05). Pivot shift test was negative immediately after operation and at last follow-up. CONCLUSION In ACL injuries with a highly positive pivot shift test, ACLR combined with the modified Lemaire procedure can effectively restore anterolateral knee stability, leading to satisfactory knee stability and function in the early postoperative period.

Abstract Children were vulnerable groups in major public health emergencies. In 2020, the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic was widespread in the world. The mental health of school age children has become a worldwide concern. Herein, we conducted this review to evaluate the impact of COVID-19 on the mental health of general children and special children with a high risk of psychological problems, focusing on the prevalence of anxiety, depression, and post traumatic stress disorder among school age children in different countries and regions during the COVID-19 epidemic. Considering the susceptibility between individuals and the accessibility of social resources, we further explored the child, family, and social related factors affecting the mental health of school age children. Finally, some suggestions on the construction of children s mental health service system in major public health emergencies were put forward at the national, school family community, and individual levels. Building a safe and reliable child mental health protection network required the joint efforts of all sectors of society.
