The glymphatic system(GS)is a unique toxic sub-stance clearance system in brain,which is very important for maintaining the microenvironment stability of the central nervous system.The polarization distribution of aquaporin 4(AQP4)lo-cated in the terminal foot of astrocytes affects the function of GS and participates in the pathological progress of many neurodegen-erative diseases,but the detailed regulation mechanism of AQP4 polarization distribution has not been systematically summarized.Therefore,this paper systematically combs the mechanism of reg-ulating the polarization distribution of AQP4 from the perspective of the composition integrity of dystrophin-glycoprotein complex(DGC)and basement membrane foot complex,and summarizes the potential drug and non-drug therapies for targeted regulation of AQP4 polarization distribution at present,aiming at providing new target reference and theoretical basis for targeted regulation of AQP4 polarization to prevent and treat neurodegenerative dis-eases.

The success of"New Medical Sciences"in higher education requires effective tools in evalua-ting students'performance in courses.Previously,we reported a teamwork(T),critique(C)and ap-preciation(A)(TCA)ideological and political model,a teaching model widely applied in Basic Medical courses.TCA is an abbreviation derived from Tricarboxylic Acid Cycle in Biochemistry as an analogy for nurturing the abilities of thinking and teamwork(T),critique(C)and appreciation(A),which hope-fully could provide students with moral norms for cognition,science and life.This paper further explores the tools to assess the educational outcomes of the TCA model,by which teachers can collect feedback and reflect on teaching quality and effectiveness.Addressing the challenges of individual differences in large classes,fragmented learning feedback,and the difficulty of measuring meta-cognition in educational evaluation,this study employs strategies of value-added assessment,matrix assessment and norm-transfer-able assessment to evaluate the TCA abilities from the aspects of thinking quality,thinking creativity,co-operation ability,iterative thinking,dialectical thinking and job responsibility.By modifying/using 18 e-valuation tools in Education and Psychology,we have established a rubric system composed of 30 primary indicators(with 11 newly designed,10 partly modified and 9 directly adopted),along with 49 secondary indicators and 98 tertiary indicators to enhance the feasibility of the evaluation process.This rubric sys-tem was applied to Biochemistry teaching among the five-year-program undergraduates at Air Force Medi-cal University.Specifically,thinking and teamwork are evaluated by creative works from"the magic bio-chemical-circle",while critiques are assessed in large classes under the guidance of basic and clinical teachers,coupled with appreciation measured by job responsibility in a task-driven virtual reality(VR)project.The results indicate that Biochemistry teaching not only accumulates knowledge in students,but also achieves the goals in nurturing values and cognition.The inclusion of creative performance evalua-tion,cooperative learning and clinical case studies,can enhance students'interpersonal skills,coopera-tion,quality of thinking,creative thinking,iterative thinking and dialectical thinking to varying degrees.TCA-based Biochemistry teaching has a long-lasting impact on character education,and is capable of in-ducing positive long-term changes in students'cognition and lifestyle.Taken together,with the help of this rubric system,teachers can promptly acknowledge the effectiveness of their teaching,thereby facilita-ting their teaching strategies.

Objective:To investigate the incidence of hearing loss among helicopter flying personnel, and to analyze the contributing factors.Methods:Basic data of 443 male helicopter flying personnel who received physical examinations at Beidaihe Rehabilitation and Recuperation Center of PLA between March and June 2024 was collected. The hearing threshold levels were measured at 8 frequencies: 250, 500, 1 000, 2 000, 3 000, 4 000, 6 000 and 8 000 Hz. Routine blood tests and blood biochemical tests were performed. Based on the results of pure-tone audiometry, the participants were divided into 2 groups: the hearing loss group (hearing threshold ≤20 dB HL) and the normal hearing group (hearing threshold >20 dB HL). The basic data, routine blood results, and blood biochemical indicators were compared between the 2 groups before the contributors to hearing loss were analyzed.Results:A total of 443 helicopter flying personnel were included in the study, with 82 cases (18.51%) in the hearing loss group and 361 cases (81.49%) in the normal hearing group. There were significant differences in age and pulse between the flying personnel in the 2 groups ( t=2.13, 2.78, P=0.034, 0.006). Among the blood routine indicators, only the mean platelet volume (MPV) was significantly different ( t=2.26, P=0.025). Among the blood biochemical indicators, only homocysteine (HCY) revealed statistically significant difference ( Z=2.30, P=0.021). The determinants of hearing loss in helicopter flying personnel were age ( OR=1.046, 95% CI: 1.060-1.361), pulse ( OR=1.201, 95% CI: 1.060-1.361), MPV ( OR=1.365, 95% CI: 1.016-1.834) and HCY ( OR=1.065, 95% CI: 1.033-1.097). Conclusions:Age, pulse, the MPV and HCY levels can all contribute to hearing loss, and the MPV and HCY can serve as potential biomarkers for hearing loss in helicopter flying personnel. Potential hearing loss should be detected early and personalized interventions should be implemented. Noise exposure should be monitored more rigorously to reduce the risk of occupational hearing loss for helicopter flying personnel and ensure flight safety.
