ObjectiveTo evaluate the anti-inflammatory activity of the novel magnolol ester derivative YW and to investigate its effects on chondrocyte senescence and preliminary mechanisms. MethodsMagnolol and p-methylbenzoic acid were used as raw materials to synthesize the magnolol ester derivative YW （Molecular Formula： C₂₆H₂₄O₃， Molecular Weight： 384.17， HPLC Purity >96%） via DCC/DMAP-catalyzed esterification. Cytotoxicity was assessed using the CCK-8 assay. A lipopolysaccharide （LPS）-induced RAW264.7 macrophage activation model and an interleukin-1β （IL-1β）-induced rat primary chondrocyte model were established. The release and mRNA expression of inflammatory factors including nitric oxide （NO）， IL-1β， tumor necrosis factor-alpha （TNF-α）， and IL-6 were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA）， Griess reagent method， and quantitative real-time PCR （RT-qPCR）. The expression of senescence markers such as inducible nitric oxide synthase （iNOS）， pro-interleukin-1β （pro-IL-1β）， lysine acetyltransferase 7 （KAT7）， cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 1A （p21）， and cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 2A （p16）， as well as proteins related to chondrocyte extracellular matrix synthesis and catabolism， were analyzed by Western blot （WB）. Molecular docking was performed using Discovery Studio 2019 to validate target binding. ResultsYW exhibited no significant cytotoxicity at concentrations ≤20 μmol/L. YW concentration-dependently inhibited LPS-induced macrophage inflammatory cytokine release， significantly downregulated iNOS， Pro-IL-1β protein， and inflammatory cytokine mRNA expression （P<0.01）. YW stably bound to KAT7 protein （binding energy： -94.2 kcal/mol）； YW downregulated KAT7 and aging marker protein expression in naturally aged and IL-1β-induced chondrocyte models （P<0.01）； YW regulated chondrocyte matrix synthesis and catabolic protein expression in IL-1β-induced chondrocytes （P<0.01）. ConclusionYW inhibits macrophage activation and inflammatory cytokine release while downregulating KAT7 and senescence marker protein expression in chondrocytes， thereby blocking chondrocyte senescence.

ObjectiveTo analyze the effects of the progestin-primed ovarian stimulation （PPOS） protocol on embryo euploidy rate and clinical pregnancy outcomes in infertile patients. MethodsWomen who underwent Preimplantation genetic testing for aneuploidy （PGT-A） cycles were selected as study participants （a total of 656 cycles and 3 081 blastocysts）. Participants were divided into two age groups （≤35 years and >35 years） and further stratified by ovarian stimulation protocol： the Progestin-Primed Ovarian Stimulation （PPOS） group （n=48 and 60， respectively）， the Luteal Phase Long Protocol （LP） group （n=160 and 57， respectively）， and the Gonadotropin-Releasing Hormone Antagonist Protocol （AP） group （n=220 and 111， respectively）. Baseline characteristics， ovarian stimulation outcomes， and embryo development parameters were compared among the three protocols within each age group. Additionally， clinical pregnancy outcomes of the first frozen embryo transfer （FET） cycle were compared. The primary outcome measure was the embryo euploidy rate. Results① In the ≤35 years age group， baseline follicle-stimulating hormone （bFSH） levels were significantly higher in the PPOS group compared to the LP and AP groups， and the bFSH/bLH ratio was significantly higher in the PPOS group than in the AP group （P < 0.05）. In the >35 years age group， bFSH levels in both the PPOS and AP groups were significantly higher than in the LP group （P < 0.05）.② In the ≤35 years group， there were no significant differences in the rates of metaphase II （MII） oocytes， 2-pronuclei （2 PN） zygotes， cleavage， 2 PN cleavage， blastocyst formation， high-quality embryos， or embryo euploidy between the PPOS group and either the LP or AP groups. However， the PPOS group showed significantly lower values for the following parameters compared to the other two groups： total oocytes retrieved， number of MII oocytes， number of 2 PN zygotes， number of cleaved embryos， number of 2 PN cleaved embryos， number of blastocysts formed， number of high-quality embryos， number of high-grade blastocysts， number of transferable embryos， number of cryopreserved embryos， number of biopsied blastocysts， number of euploid embryos， and the rate of obtaining at least one euploid embryo. In the >35 years group， no significant differences were observed among the PPOS， LP， and AP groups in the rates of MII oocytes， 2 PN cleavage， blastocyst formation， or in the number of euploid embryos， euploidy rate， and the rate of obtaining at least one euploid embryo. However， the PPOS group had significantly lower numbers of total oocytes retrieved， MII oocytes， 2 PN zygotes， cleaved embryos， 2 PN cleaved embryos， blastocysts formed， transferable embryos， and cryopreserved embryos compared to the LP group （P<0.05）. The high-quality embryo rate was significantly lower in the PPOS group than in the AP group （P<0.05）. The numbers of high-quality embryos， high-grade blastocysts， and biopsied blastocysts were significantly lower in the PPOS group than in both the LP and AP groups （P<0.05）. Notably， the 2 PN fertilization rate was significantly higher in the PPOS group than in the AP group， and the cleavage rate was significantly higher in the PPOS group than in both the LP and AP groups （P<0.05）.③ No significant differences were found among the three groups in the biochemical pregnancy rate， clinical pregnancy rate， live birth rate， early miscarriage rate， and late miscarriage rate following the first FET cycle. ConclusionCompared to the other two protocols， the PPOS protocol does not significantly affect embryo euploidy or clinical pregnancy rates. However， in freeze-all cycles with PGT-A， the PPOS protocol does not reduce the rate of chromosomally normal embryos but may decrease the total number of available embryos. It may not be the optimal choice for younger women， but it can be considered as a viable option for women of advanced maternal age.

Objective: To examine the characteristics of physical activity among secondary vocational school students and its associations with depressive symptoms, anxiety symptoms, and their co-existence, so as to provide evidence for promoting their mental health. Methods: From September to December 2024, a questionnaire survey was conducted on 5 141 secondary vocational school students using convenience sampling method across 16 secondary vocational schools in 8 provinces/municipalities, including Fujian, Chongqing, Guangdong, Guangxi, Hubei, Jiangxi, Shanghai and Zhejiang. A self designed questionnaire, International Physical Activity Questionnaire Short Form, Patient Health Questionnaire-9 and Generalized Anxiety Disorder Scale-7 were used to assess basic information, physical activity characteristics, and depressive and anxiety symptoms. Chi-square test and Logistic regression model were used to analyze the associations of physical activity characteristics with depressive symptoms, anxiety symptoms, and their co-existence. Results: Among secondary vocational school students, 22.2% had depressive symptoms, 12.2% had anxiety symptoms, and 10.5% had both conditions. After adjustment for confounding factors such as sex, grade, and family structure, Logistic regression analyses showed that a high physical activity level, meeting the recommendation for daily moderate to vigorous physical activity (MVPA), and a concentrated physical activity pattern were associated with lower odds of depressive symptoms, anxiety symptoms, and their co-existence ( OR =0.70-0.81, all P <0.05). Regular weekly MVPA and a regular physical activity pattern were associated only with lower odds of depressive symptoms ( OR =0.79, 0.70, both P <0.05). Sex stratified analyses showed that meeting the recommendation for daily MVPA and a concentrated physical activity pattern were associated with lower odds of depressive symptoms, anxiety symptoms, and their co-existence among boys ( OR =0.60-0.71); a high physical activity level, regular weekly MVPA, and a regular physical activity pattern were associated with lower odds of depressive symptoms among boys ( OR =0.65-0.78)(all P <0.05). Meanwhile, a high physical activity level, meeting the recommendation for daily MVPA, regular weekly MVPA, and regular and concentrated physical activity patterns were associated with lower odds of depressive symptoms in female students ( OR =0.72-0.79) (all P <0.05). Conclusions Physical activity characteristics are associated with depressive symptoms, anxiety symptoms, and their co-existence among secondary vocational school students. Schools should optimize physical activity promotion strategies according to sex specific characteristics to reduce the occurrence of depressive and anxiety symptoms among secondary vocational school students.

Objective: To analyze the compliance status of physical fitness indicator and lifestyle characteristics among secondary vocational school students, as well as their associations, so as to provide a reference for physical fitness promotion among secondary vocational school students. Methods: Using a convenience sampling method, a questionnaire survey and physical fitness tests were conducted from September to December 2024 among 5 141 secondary vocational school students recruited from 16 secondary vocational schools across 8 provinces/municipalities in China, including Fujian, Chongqing, Guangdong, Guangxi, Hubei, Jiangxi, Shanghai and Zhejiang. Data on lifestyle factors were collected using a self designed questionnaire combined with standardized scales, including dietary habits, unhealthy behaviors, and 24 hour behaviors (physical activity, screen time, and sleep behavior). Multivariable Logistic regression model was used to analyze the associations of individual lifestyle behaviors and clustering of unhealthy lifestyle behaviors with non-compliance in physical fitness indicators among secondary vocational school students. Results: The compliance rates for waist circumference, vital capacity, grip strength, standing long jump, 30 second sit ups, 20 meter shuttle run, 50 meter dash, sit and reach, 20 second side steps among secondary vocational school students were 55.9%, 89.6%, 81.8%, 79.4%, 77.8%, 61.4%, 87.0%, 12.6%, and 63.5%, respectively, with a non-overweight/obesity rate of 78.9%. The reporting rates of daily breakfast consumption, milk consumption, and vegetable consumption were 58.9%, 18.3%, and 37.5%, respectively. The reporting rates of frequent takeout consumption, frequent sugar sweetened beverage consumption, smoking, alcohol drinking, insufficient moderate to vigorous physical activity (MVPA), excessive screen time, and insufficient sleep were 30.0%, 43.8%, 8.4%, 15.8%, 42.9%, 90.8%, and 42.6%, respectively. Multivariable Logistic regression analysis showed that secondary vocational school students with insufficient MVPA had higher risks of non-compliance in vital capacity, grip strength, standing long jump, 30 second sit ups, 20 meter shuttle run, 50 meter dash, and 20 second side steps ( OR =1.22- 1.60 ); secondary vocational school students who consumed breakfast daily had lower risks of non-compliance in vital capacity and overweight/obesity ( OR =0.81, 0.85); daily vegetable consumption was associated with a lower risk of vital capacity non-compliance ( OR =0.72); frequent takeout consumption was associated with an increased risk of non-compliance in the sit and reach test ( OR =1.28); smoking was associated with increased risks of non-compliance in the 20 meter shuttle run and 20 second side steps ( OR =1.38, 1.58) (all P <0.05). Regarding the clustering of unhealthy behaviors, secondary vocational school students with 4- 5 clustered unhealthy behaviors had higher risks of non-compliance in waist circumference and standing long jump; those with≥6 clustered behaviors had higher risks of non-compliance in standing long jump, 20 meter shuttle run, and 20 second side step ( OR = 1.17-1.36, all P <0.05). Conclusions The clustering of unhealthy behaviors is negatively associated with physical fitness status among secondary vocational school students. Secondary vocational schools should prioritize the promotion of comprehensive lifestyle management to improve the physical fitness levels of secondary vocational school students.

Objective: To explore the association role of anxiety and depressive symptoms with Internet gaming disorder (IGD) and emotional-behavioral problems among junior high school students, so as to provide references for preventing the occurrence and progression of emotional-behavioral problems in middle school students. Methods: From September to October 2024, a random cluster sampling method was adopted to select 38 069 students from 28 junior high schools in 14 counties (cities and districts) and functional areas of Jining City, Shandong Province. Surveys were conducted by Nine item Internet Gaming Disorder Scale-Short Form, Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7, Patient Health Questionnaire-9, and Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire. The correlation of emotional and behavioral issues, online game addiction, anxiety and depressive symptoms among junior high school students was analyzed by Speaman correlation analysis. Mediation analysis was used to explore the role of anxiety and depressive symptoms between IGD and emotional-behavioral problems among junior high school students. Results: The detection rates of emotional-behavioral problems, anxiety symptoms, depressive symptoms, and IGD among junior high school students were 19.24 %, 9.48%, 16.69%, and 19.68%, respectively. The scores of emotional-behavioral problems, anxiety symptoms, depressive symptoms and IGD were 10.00 (6.00, 15.00), 3.00 (0.00, 7.00), and 4.00 (1.00, 8.00), 13.00 (10.00, 19.00), respectively. There were positive correlations between each pair of emotional-behavioral problem, IGD, anxiety symptoms, and depressive symptoms scores ( r =0.51-0.81, all P <0.01). Anxiety and depressive symptoms played mediating roles between IGD and emotional-behavioral problems among junior high school students, with mediating effect values of 0.16 (95% CI =0.15-0.17) and 0.12 (95% CI =0.11-0.14), respectively (both P <0.01). Conclusions Anxiety and depressive symptoms mediate the relationship between IGD and emotional-behavioral problems among junior high school students. It is necessary to identify early signs of IGD among junior high school students, strengthen intervention for anxiety and depressive symptoms, to prevent the occurrence and development of emotional and behavioral issues.

Objective: To explore the regulatory role of paternal involvement in parenting in the association between parental adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) and autism like behavioral problems in children aged 3-6, so as to provide a basis for intervention strategies targeting the intergenerational health effects of ACEs. Methods: A longitudinal study design was used to select 1 780 children aged 3-6 from 12 kindergartens in Wuhu City, Anhui Province in June 2021 as the subjects of the baseline survey by convenient sampling, and the follow up surveys were conducted once every six months, for a total of two follow ups. Pearson correlation analysis was used to examine the association of parental ACEs and paternal involvement in parenting with autism like behavioral problems in children. A binary Logistic regression model was used to explore the association between parental ACEs and autism like behavioral problems in children. Based on stratification, the potential role of paternal involvement in the association between parental ACEs and autism like behavioral problems in children aged 3-6 was explored. Results: Autism like behavioral problem score in children aged 3-6 was positively correlated with the total score ACEs of parents as well as scores of emotional abuse, physical abuse, sexual abuse, emotional neglect, physical neglect, community violence, peer bullying, and family dysfunction( r =0.18,0.16,0.18,0.14,0.06,0.05,0.12,0.18,0.09,all P <0.05). Autism like behavioral problem score in children was negatively correlated with score of paternal involvement in parenting( r =-0.16, P <0.01). After adjusting for covariates such as gender, age, and birth weight of children, binary Logistic regression analysis showed that children whose parents had experiences of childhood emotional abuse, physical abuse, sexual abuse, community violence, peer bullying, or family dysfunction had higher risks of developing autism like behavioral problems than those in the non exposed group ( OR =3.29, 3.28, 6.71, 2.34, 4.08, 2.02, all P <0.01). In the group with low paternal involvement in parenting, all dimensions of parental ACEs(emotional abuse, physical abuse, sexual abuse, community violence, peer bullying, and family dysfunction) were significantly associated with an increased risk of autism like behavioral problems in children ( OR =1.84-8.34, all P <0.05). In contrast, in the group with high paternal involvement in parenting, no statistically significant associations were found between any dimension of parental ACEs and children s autism like behavioral problems ( OR =0.57-1.82, all P >0.05). Conclusion A high level of paternal involvement in parenting can reduce the adverse effects of parental ACEs on the occurrence of autism like behaviors in preschool children.

Objective: To investigate the epidemiological characteristics of spinal curvature abnormalities among primary and secondary school students in Henan Province, and to explore their association with classroom environment, so as to provide scientific evidence for targeted prevention and control strategies. Methods: From September to October 2025, 751 schools from 158 counties/districts in Henan Province were chosen by using a stratified random cluster sampling technique. A total of 4 019 classrooms were monitored and physical examinations for 202 293 students were conducted. By matching classroom environment monitoring data with student physical examination information, Chi square test and Chi square test for trend were used for between group comparisons, and a multilevel Logistic regression model was used to analyze the association between classroom environment and spinal curvature abnormalities among primary and secondary school students. Results: The detection rate of spinal curvature abnormalities among primary and secondary school students in Henan Province was 2.48% in 2025. The rate was higher in girls ( 2.65 %) compared to boys (2.32%), higher in urban students (3.23%) compared to rural students (2.01%), and higher in wasted students (3.89%) compared to non wasted students (2.39%); all differences were statistically significant ( χ 2=22.92, 298.34 , 100.84, all P <0.05). Age and school stage were associated with an increasing trend in the detection rate of spinal curvature abnormalities ( χ 2 trend = 1 494.46 , 1 430.79, both P <0.05). After controlling for confounding variables like residence area, sex, and age, multilevel Logistic regression analysis revealed that non compliance with desk-chair fit standards ( OR=1.47, 95%CI = 1.22-1.78), blackboard reflectance ( OR=1.18, 95%CI =1.06-1.33), and blackboard size ( OR =1.37, 95% CI =1.21-1.55) increased the risk of spinal curvature abnormalities among primary and secondary school students (all P <0.01). Conclusions There are population based differences in spinal curvature abnormalities among primary and secondary school students in Henan Province. The occurrence is strongly correlated with elements of the teaching environment. It is necessary to put in place comprehensive preventative and control strategies that focus on pertinent environmental elements.

Lung cancer is the malignant tumor with the highest global incidence and mortality rates. With the widespread application of chest CT, its detection rate has shown a gradual upward trend. Early-stage lung cancer lesions typically appear on chest CT as pure ground-glass nodules, solid nodules, and mixed ground-glass nodules. Lung cancer associated with cystic airspaces (LCCA), as a subtype with distinctive imaging features, is also being detected with increasing frequency. Pathologically, LCCA is predominantly adenocarcinoma or squamous cell carcinoma, often characterized by thick walls, solid components, and necrotic tissue, suggesting a more aggressive behavior. Given that the early imaging manifestations of LCCA lack specificity, it is prone to clinical misdiagnosis as benign conditions such as pulmonary infection, pulmonary bullae, or tuberculosis, leading to missed or incorrect diagnosis. Currently, related research primarily focuses on its pathogenesis, imaging morphology, and diagnosis, while systematic investigation into its clinical treatment strategies and prognosis remains insufficient. Therefore, this article provides a review of recent research advances in the pathogenesis, imaging features, radiomics and histopathological characteristics, diagnosis, genetic mutation profiles, as well as treatment and prognosis of LCCA.

Atrial fibrillation is one of the most common arrhythmias and significantly increases the risk of stroke, and the left atrial appendage is the main source of thrombus. Therefore, the management of the left atrial appendage in the surgical treatment of atrial fibrillation can effectively prevent stroke. However, there are various strategies to manage the left atrial appendage, each with advantages and disadvantages, and their effects of stroke prevention are not the same. Therefore, we evaluated the three most common surgical strategies, including left atrial appendage resection, left atrial appendage ligation and left atrial appendage clamp. We discussed the effect of these strategies on stroke prevention based on multiple dimensions such as surgical difficulty, surgical cost and postoperative stroke incidence, thus trying to provide some guidance for the selection of left atrial appendage treatment in patients with atrial fibrillation.

Objective To investigate the expression characteristics of the transcription factor E2F2 in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC), its impact on patient prognosis, and its potential role in the tumor immune microenvironment, with validation using clinical samples and functional assays. Methods RNA sequencing data and clinical information of ccRCC patients were obtained from the TCGA database; GSE53757 and GSE66272 datasets were downloaded from the GEO database as external validation cohorts. The expression difference of E2F2 between ccRCC tissue and normal tissue was compared, and the relationship between E2F2 expression and clinical pathological characteristics was analyzed. Kaplan-Meier (KM) survival analysis with log-rank test was performed to evaluate the effects of E2F2 on overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS), and disease-specific survival (DSS). The prognostic efficacy of E2F2 in predicting 1-, 3- and 5-year survival was evaluated using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. GSEA was performed to identify E2F2-related signaling pathways, and the ESTIMATE and CIBERSORT algorithms were used to assess the relationship between E2F2 expression level and tumor immune cell infiltration and immune microenvironment. Twenty pairs of surgically resected and pathologically confirmed ccRCC tissues and matched adjacent non-tumor tissues were collected from our hospital, and immunohistochemistry (IHC) was performed to detect the protein expression of E2F2. Human ccRCC cell line 786-O was used for functional assays;shRNA was used to knock down E2F2 expression (constructing stable shE2F2#1 and shE2F2#2 cell lines), and qRT-PCR and Western blot were performed to verify knockdown efficiency, followed by MTT, colony formation, and Transwell migration assays to evaluate the effects of E2F2 on the biological behaviors of ccRCC cells. Results E2F2 was significantly upregulated in ccRCC tissues (the same results in the verification set). Higher E2F2 expression was associated with advanced histological grade, clinical stage and higher TNM classification (P＜0.05). KM analysis showed that patients in the E2F2 high-expression group had worse OS, PFS, and DSS (P=0.019, 0.036, ＜0.001); the ROC curves showed area under the curve (AUC) of E2F2 of predicting 1-, 3- and 5- year survival of ccRCC patients were 0.844, 0.851 and 0.815, respectively. GSEA revealed that the E2F2 low-expression group was enriched in multiple metabolism-related pathways, whereas the E2F2 high-expression group was associated with immune-related pathways. Immune analysis demonstrated that high E2F2 expression was associated with increased immune scores, increased proportion of immune cells, higher tumor mutation burden, and potentially stronger immunotherapy response. IHC results showed that the E2F2 immunoreactivity score in ccRCC tissues was significantly higher than that in adjacent non-tumor tissues (P＜0.05). Functional assays indicated that E2F2 knockdown significantly inhibited the proliferation, colony formation, and migration of ccRCC cells. Conclusion E2F2 is highly expressed in ccRCC and may be involved in tumorigenesis and progression through modulation of the immune microenvironment. Its expression level is closely associated with patient prognosis, and E2F2 has the potential to serve as a prognostic biomarker and immunotherapeutic target in ccRCC.
