Objective To investigate the association of baseline cerebral blood flow （CBF） and cerebral metabolic rate of oxygen （CMRO2） with sleep structure disorder after thrombolytic therapy in stroke patients， as well as their value in clinical assessment. Methods A total of 145 patients with stroke were enrolled as subjects， and all of them received thrombolytic therapy in our hospital from January 2023 to June 2025. Before thrombolytic therapy， 3.0 T magnetic resonance imaging was used to obtain relative CBF （rCBF） and relative CMRO2 （rCMRO2）， and rCBF/rCMRO2 ratio was calculated. At week 1 after thrombolysis， overnight polysomnography （PSG） was conducted to obtain parameters such as total sleep time， sleep efficiency， the proportion of each NREM stage， and REM sleep duration. According to the presence or absence of sleep structure disorder， the subjects were divided into disorder group and non-disorder group. The Pearson correlation method was used for correlation analysis. A multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to identify the influencing factors for sleep structure disorder in subjects after thrombolytic therapy. The receiver operating characteristic （ROC） curve was plotted to analyze the performance of rCBF/rCMRO2 ratio in predicting sleep structure disorder in subjects after thrombolytic therapy. Results Compared with the non-disorder group， the disorder group had significantly higher age， infarct volume， NIHSS score on admission， and proportion of patients with infarction in the thalamus （P<0.05）. Compared with the non-disorder group， the disorder group had significantly lower rCBF， rCMRO2， rCBF/rCMRO2 ratio， total sleep time， proportion of NREM 3 sleep， proportion of REM sleep， and sleep efficiency （P<0.05） and significantly higher proportion of NREM 1 sleep and sleep arousal index （P<0.05）. The Pearson correlation analysis showed that rCBF， rCMRO2， and rCBF/rCMRO2 ratio were positively correlated with total sleep time， proportion of NREM 3 sleep， proportion of REM sleep， and sleep efficiency （P<0.001） and were negatively correlated with the proportion of NREM 1 sleep and sleep arousal index （P<0.001）. The Logistic regression analysis showed that age， infarct volume， infarction location （thalamus）， and NIHSS score on admission were risk factors for sleep structure disorder in stroke patients after thrombolytic therapy （P<0.05）， while rCBF， rCMRO2， and rCBF/rCMRO2 ratio were protective factors against sleep structure disorder （P<0.05）. The ROC curve analysis showed that rCBF/rCMRO2 ratio had an area under the ROC curve of 0.901 （95% CI 0.869-0.938） in predicting sleep structure disorder in stroke patients after thrombolytic therapy， with a sensitivity of 95.50% and a specificity of 82.40%. Conclusion Baseline rCBF， rCMRO2， and rCBF/rCMRO2 ratio are closely associated with sleep structure disorder in stroke patients after thrombolytic therapy， among which rCBF/rCMRO2 ratio has excellent performance in predicting sleep structure disorder and can be used as a sensitive indicator for clinical assessment of high-risk patients.

ObjectiveTo understand the mental health literacy levels and influencing factors among middle school students in Minhang District, Shanghai, and to provide a basis for formulating mental health promotion strategies. MethodsA multi-stage stratified cluster sampling method was adopted. From September to October 2023, middle school students (including junior and senior high school) from 14 streets, towns, and industrial zones in Minhang District, Shanghai, were recruited to participate in a questionnaire survey. The survey collected demographic information and employed the Adolescent Mental Health Literacy Assessment Scale. This scale comprises four dimensions (knowledge, recognition ability, attitude, and behavior) with a total of 22 items, using a Likert 5-point scale (1‒5 points), giving a maximum total score of 110 points. Reverse-scored items were inverted, and the sum of all item scores constituted the total scale score, with higher scores indicating better mental health literacy. A total score of ≥88 points was defined as having adequate mental health literacy. Multiple linear regression was used to analyze the factors influencing mental health literacy. ResultsThe average mental health literacy score of the 3 963 middle school students in Minhang District of Shanghai City was (85.42±11.27) points, with 45.22% of students having adequate mental health literacy. Univariate analyses showed that female students, junior high school students, and those without stressful events or physical illnesses in the past three months had higher total scores of mental health literacy. Statistically significant differences in total scores were also observed among students with different family economic statuses, parental education levels, frequency of physical exercise, parental relationships, father‑child relationships, and mother‑child relationships (all P<0.05). Multiple linear regression analyses showed that middle school students who were female, had better family economic conditions, higher maternal education levels (university degree or above), and harmonious mother-child relationships had higher mental health literacy scores. In contrast, high school students and those middle school students who participated in less physical activity had lower mental health literacy scores. Multivariate logistic regression analyses indicated that students who were female (OR=1.336, 95%CI: 1.174‒1.520), had superior family economic status (OR=2.000, 95%CI: 1.101‒3.725), had mothers with a university education level (OR=1.501, 95%CI: 1.217‒1.856), had lost one parent (OR=2.189, 95%CI: 1.176~4.158), or reported harmonious mother‑child relationships (OR=2.052, 95%CI: 1.432‒2.987) were more likely to meet the criteria for mental health literacy, whereas those who rarely engaged in physical exercise (OR=0.502, 95%CI: 0.358‒0.694) were less likely to have adequate mental health literacy. Stratified analyses showed that mental health literacy levels among junior high school students were positively correlated with being female, having a mother with a university education level, and having a mother‑child relationship that was average or harmonious and having a harmonious father‑child relationship, and negatively correlated with occasional or rare participation in physical exercise. Among senior high school students, mental health literacy levels were positively correlated with being female, having good or superior family economic status, having a mother with a university education level or above, and having a harmonious mother‑child relationship. ConclusionThe rate of adequate mental health literacy among middle school students in Minhang District, Shanghai, was approximately 45.22%. Gender, grade level, family economic status, maternal education level, physical activity participation, and mother-child relationship are independent factors associated with the level of mental health literacy among middle school students. Mother-child relationship and physical activity are potential intervention entry points. It is recommended to implement targeted health promotion initiatives focusing on key groups, such as high school boys, students from economically disadvantaged families, and those with insufficient physical activity.

This innovative technology provides a brand-new solution for realizing intelligent and individualized lung cancer diagnosis and treatment models. This consensus, based on the latest evidence from evidence-based medicine and combined with the development trends in the AI field and real-world clinical needs, was ultimately formed by gathering the consensus opinions of multidisciplinary experts in radiology, pathology, thoracic surgery, and other fields. The main content covers the application specifications of AI in the three core scenarios of lung cancer screening, diagnosis, and treatment, the technical standards for data collection and algorithm validation, as well as the ethical and regulatory challenges faced at the current stage. It aims to clarify the applicable boundaries of AI as a clinical auxiliary decision support tool, providing scientific guidance and standardized exploration directions for peers currently engaged in or planning to carry out AI-assisted clinical diagnosis, treatment, and translation of lung cancer.

Objective To investigate the protective effect and underlying mechanisms of HydroMg, a novel sustained-release hydrogen donor, in a model of doxorubicin (DOX)-induced chronic cardiotoxicity. Methods H9C2 cells were treated with 1 μmol/L DOX and/or 1 μg/mL HydroMg, and mitochondrial membrane potential, reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels, and apoptosis were measured. In the animal experiment, mice were divided into control, HydroMg, DOX, and DOX＋HydroMg groups. The HydroMg group received intraperitoneal injection of HydroMg (100 mg/kg). Chronic cardiotoxicity was established by intraperitoneal injection of DOX (5 mg/kg every week) for four consecutive weeks; In the DOX＋HydroMg group, HydroMg (100 mg/kg) was administered intraperitoneally 4–5 h prior to each DOX injection. Cardiac function and remodeling were evaluated by echocardiography and heart weight index (HWI). The long-term survival of mice were analyzed. Subsequently, transcriptome sequencing was performed on myocardial tissues from the DOX group to identify key molecular alterations compared with controls. Results At the cellular level, HydroMg treatment effectively reversed DOX-induced mitochondrial dysfunction and oxidative stress, as evidenced by restored membrane potential, reductions in total ROS and mitochondrial superoxide levels by approximately 30% and 9%, respectively, and a decrease in the apoptosis rate from 34.13% to 18.27%. In the animal model, compared with the DOX group, HydroMg intervention increased left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) and fractional shortening (LVFS) by 9.62% and 5.82%, respectively, attenuated the reduction in HWI (4.41 mg/mm vs 3.53 mg/mm), and improved the 4-week survival rate (80% vs 60%). Transcriptomic analysis revealed that the core molecular features of DOX-induced cardiotoxicity, including widespread suppression of oxidative phosphorylation and antioxidant pathways. Conclusions HydroMg protects against DOX-induced chronic cardiotoxicity by alleviating oxidative stress and improving mitochondrial function, and provides a potential therapeutic strategy against DOX-related cardiotoxicity.

Objective: To evaluate the performance of platelet efficacy score (PEscore) in predicting platelet transfusion efficacy in hematological patients. Methods: A total of 485 patients with hematological diseases, including 298 males (62.09±15.45 years) and 187 females (59.17±16.52 years) who received platelet transfusion from January 1, 2021 to December 31, 2024 were enrolled in this study. Clinical data of the patients such as diagnosis, gender, age, number of platelet transfusion, and platelet antibody data were analyzed to investigate the incidence and influencing factors of platelet transfusion refractoriness in hematological patients at our hospital. ROC curve was used to evaluate the performance of PEscore model in predicting platelet transfusion efficacy. The predictive performance of PEscore model was validated by calculating its sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy in 115 clinical cases. Results: The incidence of platelet transfusion refractoriness in 485 cases was 29.90% (145/485). Significant differences (P<0.05) were observed between the effective and ineffective platelet transfusion groups regarding the following factors: diagnosis: lymphoma [55.32% (26/47) vs 44.68% (21/47)], the number of previous platelet transfusions [≥25: 60.78% (31/51) vs 39.22% (20/51)], platelet antibody screening result [positive: 33.76% (53/157) vs 66.24% (104/157)], and platelet transfusion volume (×10 /L) [>6: 62.71% (74/118) vs 37.29% (44/118)]. The area under the ROC curve of PEscore was 0.876. The cut-off points and corresponding sensitivity and specificity were 19.90.59% and 69.44%, respectively. The results of clinical application showed that the sensitivity, specificity and accuracy of the PEscore model for predicting platelet transfusion were 87.50%, 93.41% and 92.17%, respectively. Conclusion: The incidence of platelet transfusion refractoriness in hematological patients is relatively high. PEscore prediction model has a good performance in predicting the effect of platelet transfusion, which can provide a reliable basis for predicting the effect of platelet transfusion in hematological patients before blood transfusion.

BACKGROUND:Bone relies on the close connection between blood vessels and bone cells to maintain its integrity.Bones are in a physiologically hypoxic environment.Therefore,the study of angiogenesis and osteogenesis in hypoxic environment is closer to the microenvironment in vivo. OBJECTIVE:To explore the influence of Wenshen Tongluo Zhitong(WSTLZT)formula on H-type bone microvascular endothelial cell/bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell co-culture system in hypoxia environment and its related mechanism. METHODS:Enzyme digestion method and flow sorting technique were used to isolate and identify H-type bone microvascular endothelial cells.Mouse bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells were isolated and obtained by bone marrow adhesion method.H-type bone microvascular endothelial cell/bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell hypoxic co-culture system was established using Transwell chamber and anoxic culture workstation.WSTLZT formula powder was used to intervene in each group at a mass concentration of 50 and 100 μg/mL.The angiogenic function of H-type bone microvascular endothelial cells in the co-culture system was evaluated by scratch migration test and tube formation test.The osteogenic differentiation ability of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells in the co-cultured system was evaluated by alkaline phosphatase staining and alizarin red staining.The protein and mRNA expression changes of PDGF/PI3K/AKT signal axis related molecules in H-type bone microvascular endothelial cells in the co-cultured system were detected by Western Blotting and q-PCR,respectively. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Compared with the normal oxygen group,the scratch mobility and new blood vessel length of H-type bone microvascular endothelial cells were significantly higher(P<0.05);the osteogenic differentiation capacity of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells was higher(P<0.05);the expression of PDGF/PI3K/AKT axis-related molecular protein and mRNA increased(P<0.05)in the hypoxia group.(2)Compared with the hypoxia group,scratch mobility and new blood vessel length were significantly increased in the H-type bone microvascular endothelial cells(P<0.05);bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells had stronger osteogenic function(P<0.05);the expression of PDGF/PI3K/AKT axis-related molecular proteins and mRNA further increased(P<0.05)after treatment with different dose concentrations of WSTLZT formula.These findings conclude that H-type angiogenesis and osteogenesis under hypoxia may be related to the PDGF/PI3K/AKT signaling axis,and WSTLZT formula may promote H-type vasculo-dependent bone formation by activating the PDGF/PI3K/AKT signaling axis,thereby preventing and treating osteoporosis.

Objective: To investigate the role of STAT3 phosphorylation in ferroptosis regulation and its impact on cisplatin resistance mechanisms in human osteosarcoma cells． Methods: Human osteosarcoma HOS cells and cispl- atin-resistant HOS / DDP cells were treated with cisplatin ( 0. 5，1，2，4，8，16，32 mg / L) ，the ferroptosis inducer Erastin ( Era) ( 2 μmol / L) ，and / or the ferroptosis inhibitor Ferrostatin-1 ( Fer1) ( 10 μmol / L) ．Cell viability and proliferation were assessed using the Cell Counting Kit-8 ( CCK-8) and colony formation assays，and cell migration was evaluated via a scratch assay．Reactive oxygen species ( ROS) ，intracellular ferrous iron levels，mitochondrial membrane potential，mitochondrial function，malondialdehyde ( MDA) levels，and the reduced glutathione / oxi- dized glutathione ( GSH / GSSG) ratio were measured using commercial kits．The mRNA expression of ferroptosis- related genes was analyzed by quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction ( RT-qPCR) ．The protein levels of glutathione peroxidase 4 ( GPX4) ，solute carrier family 7 member 11 ( SLC7A11) ，phosphorylated STAT3 ( p-STAT3) ，and total STAT3 were determined by Western blot． Results: With cisplatin treatment，HOS cells ex- hibited decreased cell viability，mitochondrial membrane potential，and GSH / GSSG ratio ( P＜0. 01) ，along with elevated levels of ROS，ferrous ion，and MDA content ( P ＜0. 01) ． The protein levels of GPX4 ( P ＜0. 01) ， SLC7A11，and p-STAT3 also decreased ( P ＜0. 05) ．Coadministration with the ferroptosis inhibitor Ferrostatin-1 ( Fer-1) reversed these aforementioned effects ( P ＜0. 05) ．In HOS / DDP cells，the mRNA levels of ferroptosis- suppressive genes ( GPX4，FTH1，SLC7A11，and AIFM2) were significantly higher than those in HOS cells ( P < 0. 05) ，whereas the expression of ferroptosis-promoting genes ( ACSL4 and PTGS2) was significantly lower ( P < 0. 05) ．The cisplatin-induced reductions in cell viability and mitochondrial membrane potential，as well as the in- creases in ROS，ferrous ion，and MDA levels，were less pronounced in HOS / DDP cells than in HOS cells．The SLC7A11 protein level showed no significant change． However，combined treatment with the ferroptosis inducer Erastin ( Era) resulted in significant decreases in viability，mitochondrial membrane potential，and the GSH / GSSG ratio in HOS / DDP cells ( P＜0. 05) ．Furthermore，the protein levels of p-STAT3，GPX4，and SLC7A11 were also markedly reduced ( P＜0. 05) ． Conclusion The activation of ferroptosis mediated by p-STAT3 enhances cisplatin sensitivity in HOS / DDP cells．

Objective To investigate whether miR-15b-5p can alleviate airway inflammation in asthma by negatively regulating ubiquitin specific peptidase 9X (USP9X) to down-regulate the expression of phosphatidylinositol 4, 5-diphosphate 3-kinase catalytic subunit α/AKT serine/threonine kinase 1 (PIK3CA/AKT1) pathway. Methods USP9X was predicted to be a direct target of miR-15b-5p by using an online database (miRWalk), and the luciferase reporter gene assay was performed to verify it. Co-immunoprecipitation (CO-IP) was used to verify the direct binding between USP9X and PIK3CA and the role of USP9X and its small molecule inhibitor WP1130 in the deubiquitination of PIK3CA. C57 mice were randomly divided into Control group, OVA group, OVA combined with NC group and miR-15b-5p agomir group, with 10 mice in each group. BEAS-2B cells were induced with interleukin 13 (IL-13) and treated with miR-15b-5p mimic. HE, Masson, PAS, immunohistochemistry, immunofluorescence staining, flow cytometry, Western blot and quantitative real-time PCR(qRT-PCR) were performed. Results It was found that the administration of miR-15b-5p agomir and mimic could reduce peribronchial inflammatory cells and improve airway inflammation, and miR-15b-5p could target negative regulation of USP9X. USP9X could directly bind to PIK3CA and regulate PIK3CA level in a proteasome-dependent manner, and USP9X could deubiquitinate K29-linked PIK3CA protein. Down-regulation of USP9X could increase PIK3CA ubiquitination level. WP1130, a small molecule inhibitor of USP9X, has the same effect as knockdown of USP9X, both of which could increase the ubiquitination level of PIK3CA and reduce the protein level of PIK3CA. Conclusion The miR-15b-5p/USP9X/PIK3CA/AKT1 signaling pathway may provide potential therapeutic targets for asthma.
