Objective: To understand the impact of childhood trauma on psychological distress among upper grade elemetary school students, and to explore the mediating role of leisure activities in the relationship, so as to provide a basis for developing mental health intervention strategies. Methods: From August to November 2024, a combination of convenience sampling and stratified cluster random sampling was employed to recruit 1 373 fourth to sixth grade students from four primary schools in Harbin. The Childhood Trauma Questionnaire(CTQ), a self designed leisure activity scale (including active and passive leisure activities), and the Kessler Psychological Distress Scale (K10) were used to assess childhood trauma experiences, leisure activities, and levels of psychological distress. Spearman correlation analysis and linear regression analysis were conducted to explore the relationships among childhood trauma, leisure types, leisure time, and psychological distress. Based on the mediation analysis framework proposed by Hayes (Model 4), the mediating role of leisure types in the relationship between childhood trauma and psychological distress was examined. Results: Totally 19.1% of the upper elemetary school students exhibited psychological distress, while 30.2% had experienced childhood trauma. During school days, 64.6% of the students were reported of having leisure time concentrated between 1 and 5 hours per day, whereas 67.4% reported leisure time exceeding 5 hours per day on weekends. After controlling for potential demographic confounders such as gender, grade, ethnicity, household registration, being an only child, parents educational level, co residence, and whether parents are first time married,linear regression analysis showed that childhood trauma experience had positive predictive effect on psychological distress in upper primary school students( β =0.20, P <0.01). Leisure time showed no statistically significant association with psychological distress, both on school days ( β =-0.58 to -0.56) and weekends ( β =0.26- 0.98 )(all P >0.05). Active leisure activities were negatively associated with psychological distress ( β =-0.20), while passive leisure activities were positively associated with psychological distress ( β =0.29)(both P <0.01). Leisure type partially mediated the relationship between childhood trauma and psychological distress, accounting for 11.7% of the indirect effect. Conclusion Childhood trauma experiences positively predict psychological distress in upper elementary school students, and affect psychological distress through active leisure and passive leisure.

Objective: To explore the impact of sleep quality, experience of childhood maltreatment, and their interaction on depressive symptoms among middle school students, so as to provide the reference for early intervention of depressive symptoms among middle school students. Methods: From September to December 2023, a questionnaire survey was conducted among 1 231 students from two secondary schools in Harbin, Heilongjiang Province by a convenient sampling method. The survey included general demographic information, Childhood Trauma Questionnaire Short Form, Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index and Short Version of Center for Epidemiological Studies Depression Scale. The Chi square test was used to analyze the differences in depressive symptom, sleep quality and childhood maltreatment among students with different demographic characteristics. Correlation analysis was conducted using Logistic regression, and interaction analysis was performed by both additive and multiplicative interaction models. Results: The detection rate of depressive symptoms among middle school students was 22.7%, and the rate for high school students (35.2%) was significantly higher than that for middle school students (17.0%) ( χ 2=50.35, P <0.01). The detection rates of depressive symptoms among middle school students with a history of childhood maltreatment and poor sleep quality were 45.8% and 44.0%, respectively. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that compared to students without a history of childhood maltreatment, students with a history of childhood maltreatment had a higher risk of depressive symptoms ( OR =4.49，95% CI =3.31~ 6.09 , P <0.01);students with poor sleep quality had a higher risk of depressive symptoms than students with good sleep quality ( OR = 5.99，95% CI =4.37~8.22, P <0.01).The interaction results showed that the presence of childhood maltreatment and poor sleep quality had an additive interaction on the occurrence of depression in middle school students. Compared with students without childhood maltreatment and having good sleep quality, students with childhood maltreatment and poor sleep quality had a 22.49 times higher risk of developing depression ( OR =22.49，95% CI =14.22~35.59, P <0.01). Conclusion Depressive symptoms among middle school students are associated with childhood maltreatment and poor sleep quality, and there is an additive interaction between childhood maltreatment and poor sleep quality on the impact of depressive symptoms.

In order to establish a highly efficient,convenient,and effective circular RNA(circRNA)vaccine preparation system,enhanced green fluorescent protein(EGFP)circRNA was constructed using permuted intron exon(PIE)strategy based on type Ⅰ introns.Then,circRNA circularization rates of RNA after in vitro transcription(IVT),primary circularization(IVC1),and secondary circularization(IVC2)were compared after purification.The constructed circRNA system was fur-ther applied to porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus(PRRSV),and two circRNAs based on PRRSV GP5 protein were constructed and developed for in vitro expression.Results showed that circularization rates and protein expression effects of EGFP circRNA in IVC1 RNA and IVC2 RNA were similar,but both were significantly better than those of IVT RNA.Purity of EGFP circRNA reached 74％,and purities of two PRRSV GP5 protein circRNAs constructed using this preparation system were 71％and 64％,respectively.Western blot and indirect immunofluo-rescence assay(IFA)results indicated that both of the PRRSV GP5 protein circRNAs were suc-cessfully expressed.The results demonstrated that an easy-to-operate,low-cost circRNA prepara-tion system with high circularization rate was successfully constructed.Two PRRSV GP5 protein circRNA vaccines were successfully prepared using this system and expressed efficiently,which provides a reference for the development of animal circRNA vaccines and novel candidate vaccines against PRRSV.

Objective To explore the failure criterion that can accurately simulate the tensile and compressive fracture of hollow cortical bone structure.Methods Based on the previous compression and bending experimental data,the predicted results using different failure criteria were compared to determine the simulation accuracy.Results Under the compressive load,the differences in the fracture load between the simulations using the equivalent and invariant strain failure criteria and the experiment were less than 5％,indicating that these two failure criteria were suitable for predicting the cortical bone failure;under the bending load,the differences in the fracture load between the simulations using the equivalent and invariant strain failure criteria and the experiment were less than 5％,indicating that these two failure criteria could accurately predict the failure process.Conclusions The prediction accuracy using different failure criteria mainly depends on whether the strain growth rate conforms to the actual bone deformation.Too fast or too low strain growth rate will lead to premature or delayed structural fracture.The fracture simulation adopted in this study is suitable for most cortical bone structures,and can be used to determine the suitable failure criterion under different loads,so as to assist in obtaining the strength limit of cortical bone in various parts and provide data support for improving the simulation accuracy and grasping the condition of fracture occurrence in clinical practice.

Quantum dot-based single-virus tracking has become a practical method to explore the molecular mechanism of virus entry into cells,because it can realize virion imaging in living cells.Mink enteritis virus(MEV)is a single-stranded DNA virus with strong environmental resistance,which has caused huge economic losses for the global mink farming industry.Although epidemio-logic and clinical aspects of MEVs have been studied,the mechanisms by which it infect target cells remain unclear.In this study,we implemented quantum dot labeling of mink enteritis virus u-sing the biotin-streptomycin affinity system and monitored the viral infection process in host cells.We found that MEV first attaches to the cell membrane and enters the cell by endocytosis.Live cell images showed quantum dot(QD)-MEV movement along microtubules,and viral infection was also inhibited by treatment with the microtubule inhibitor nocodazole,whereas the addition of the microfilament inhibitor CytoD had no effect on infection,suggesting that MEV transport is de-pendent on microtubules rather than microfilaments.Another imaging results showed that MEV co-localized with Rab5 and Rab7 in host cells,suggesting that the endosomal system is required for MEV internalization.Biochemical analyses showed that viral infection was significantly inhibited after pretreatment of host cells with the endosomal acidification inhibitors NH4 Cl and chloro-quine,suggesting that MEV invasion requires an acidic environment in the endosomes.Our results indicated that MEV enters early and late endosomes after entering the cell membrane,and that in-tracellular translocation is microtubule-dependent,which may in turn uncover a novel target for antiviral treatment.

Objective:To visually analyze the research hot-spots and development trends of pelvic floor dysfunction nursing, in order to provide a reference for the research of pelvic floor dysfunction nursing in China.Methods:The China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) and Web of Science core collection were used as the retrieval databases to retrieve the literature in the field of pelvic floor dysfunction nursing from the establishment of the database to January 31, 2025. CiteSpace 6.4.R1 software was used to visually analyze the included literature.Results:A total of 1 947 Chinese articles and 4 931 English articles were included. The number of English literature increased year by year, while Chinese literature showed a downward trend since 2019. There were more and stable core authors and core institutions in foreign research, while there was less cooperation among domestic authors and institutions. The research hotspots abroad mainly focused on improving the quality of nursing care and managing specific health problems. The future development trends were primarily randomized controlled trials, tension-free vaginal tape, postoperative care, and patient experience. The research hotspots in China mainly focused on nursing interventions. The future development trends were primarily patient quality of life and effectiveness evaluation.Conclusions:Due to different development stages, compared with foreign countries, there are still some deficiencies in evidence-based medicine, delicacy of nursing after tension-free vaginal tape, patient experience, innovation of nursing technology, and depth and breadth of nursing research in China. In the future, we should learn from foreign studies to promote the development of nursing research on pelvic floor dysfunction in China.

Objective To investigate the value of gadolinium-ethoxybenzyl-diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid(Gd-EOB-DTPA)enhanced MRI and T1 mapping for evaluating vessels encapsulating tumor clusters(VETC)caused by hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC).Methods Totally 112 cases of HCC confirmed by surgical pathology were retrospectively enrolled and categorized into positive group(n=46)and negative group(n=66)based on the presence or absence of VETC.Gd-EOB-DTPA enhanced MRI features and T1 mapping parameters were compared between groups.Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to identify independent risk factors for HCC VETC,and a combined nomogram model was developed.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was plotted,and the area under the curve(AUC)was calculated to evaluate the efficacy of the identified independent risk factors and nomogram model for predicting HCC VETC.Results The maximum diameter of HCC,incidence of non-smooth tumor margin,prevalence of peritumoral hypo-intensity on hepatobiliary phase(HBP),as well as T1 value of HBP(T1post)in positive group were all higher,while the change rate of T1 value(ΔT1％)in positive group was lower than those in negative group(all P＜0.05).The increased maximum diameter,non-smooth margin,peritumoral hypo-intensity on HBP and low ΔT1％were all independent risk factors for HCC VETC(all P＜0.05),with AUC for predicting HCC VETC of 0.680,0.675,0.686 and 0.752,respectively.The nomogram model developed based on the combination of the above factors showed sensitivity of 78.79％,specificity of 71.74％and AUC of 0.839 for predicting HCC VETC.Conclusion Gd-EOB-DTPA enhanced MRI combined with T1 mapping could be used to effectively predict HCC VETC.

Objective:To evaluate the effects and underlying mechanisms of metabolites derived from the kidney-reinforcing, blood circulation-activating, and collateral dredging decoction on the proliferation of multiple myeloma (MM) KM3 cells.Methods:MM KM3 cells in the logarithmic growth phase were treated with 3%, 6%, 9%, or 12% metabolites of kidney-reinforcing, blood circulation-activating, and collateral dredging decoction. Cell viability was assessed using the CCK-8 assay. Apoptosis and necrosis were evaluated using flow cytometry and TUNEL staining. Mitochondrial and cellular ultrastructural changes were examined using transmission electron microscopy. mRNA and protein expression levels of dynamin-related protein 1 (Drp1), mitochondrial fission protein 1 (Fis1), mitochondrial fission factor (MFF), PTEN-induced kinase 1 (Pink1), and E3 ubiquitin ligase (Parkin) were determined through quantitative real-time PCR and western blotting. High-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS) combined with network pharmacology, was utilized for reverse verification of the pharmacodynamic mechanisms and therapeutic targets underlying the anti-MM activity of this decoction.Results:The metabolites of the kidney-reinforcing, blood circulation-activating, and collateral dredging decoction inhibited KM3 cell proliferation and induced apoptosis in a dose-dependent manner. Transmission electron microscopy revealed increased mitochondrial fission and autophagic structures, with effects intensifying at higher metabolite concentrations. mRNA and protein expression of Drp1, Fis1, MFF, Pink1, and Parkin were significantly upregulated in treatment groups compared to controls ( P<0.05), with the most pronounced effects observed in the 12% metabolite group ( P<0.01). HPLC-MS/MS identified 121 bioactive compounds in BHTF, which shared 474 overlapping targets with MM. Enrichment analysis suggested that BHTF exerts antitumor effects primarily through apigenin, palmatine, and other key components by modulating TNF, NF-κB, and mitophagy pathways. Conclusion:The kidney-reinforcing and blood circulation-activating and collateral dredging decoction suppresses the proliferation of MM KM3 cells, potentially through mechanisms involving the regulation of mitochondrial dynamics and induction of autophagy.

BACKGROUND:Human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cell-derived exosomes were found to be effective in promoting neural repair in spinal cord injury.OBJECTIVE:To investigate whether exosomes derived from human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells are able to attenuate neuroinflammation and promote recovery of motor function by promoting polarization of microglia toward the M2 type.METHODS:Totally 48 SD rats were randomly divided into a sham operation group,a model group,and an exosome group(n=16 per group).A rat spinal cord injury model was established using the modified Allen method.The exosome group was injected with 20 μL of human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cell-derived exosomes intrathecally via neuroendoscopy 24 hours after injury.At 3,7,14,and 21 days after modeling,the recovery of the motor function of the hind limbs of the rats was assessed by BBB scoring method combined with Rivlin's slant plate test.The damage of spinal cord tissues was detected by using hematoxylin-eosin staining and Nissl staining.The expression levels of brain-derived neurotrophic factor and vascular endothelial growth factor A proteins were detected by western blot assay.The expression proportion of M1-type markers(inducible nitric oxide synthase)and M2 markers(arginase-1)in the spinal cord tissues was detected by immunofluorescence method.qRT-PCR and western blot assay were used to detect the expression levels of inducible nitric oxide synthase and arginase-1 in spinal cord tissues.ELISA was utilized to detect the levels of pro-inflammatory factors(tumor necrosis factor α,interleukin 1β,and interleukin 6)and anti-inflammatory factors(interleukin 10)levels in spinal cord tissues.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)At 3,7,and 14 days postoperatively,the BBB scores of the exosome group were better than those of the model group(P＜0.05).The angles of the Rivlin slanting plate experiments of the exosome group were significantly higher than those of the model group at 7 and 14 days postoperatively(P＜0.05).The results of hematoxylin-eosin staining and Nissl staining indicated that the spinal cord tissues and nerve injuries of the exosome group were reduced in comparison with those of the model group,and the levels of brain-derived neurotrophic factor and vascular endothelial growth factor A in spinal cord tissues of the exosome group were higher than those in the model group at 7 days postoperatively(P＜0.05).(2)Immunofluorescence experiments showed that the number of inducible nitric oxide synthase-positive microglial cells in the lesion area of the exosome group was significantly reduced and the level of Arg1-positive microglial cells increased in the lesion area of the exosome group compared with the model group at 7 days postoperatively(P＜0.05).qRT-PCR and western blot assay also confirmed the results of immunofluorescence experiments.(3)The secretion of pro-inflammatory factors tumor necrosis factor α,interleukin 1β,and interleukin 6 in spinal cord tissues of the exosome group was reduced compared with the model group(P＜0.05),whereas the secretion of the inflammation-suppressing factor interleukin 10 was increased compared with the model group(P＜0.05).These findings conclude that human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cell-derived exosomes could promote the polarization of microglial cells from the M1 to the M2 type and decrease the release of pro-inflammatory factors,thereby reducing the secondary damage of neuroinflammation in spinal cord injury.

Currently,a wide range of oral antibacterial materials are clinically used,including metal element antibacterial materials(such as silver,zinc,copper,titanium),and non-metal element antibacterial materials(such as fluorine).In recent years,cerium ox-ide nanoparticles have attracted great interest in the field of oral medicine due to their unique antibacterial,anti-inflammatory,antioxi-dant,redox capabilities.At the same time,they also have the characteristics of promoting tissue regeneration,inhibiting biofilm forma-tion and good biocompatibility.To enhance the performance of oral materials,nanoparticles have been integrated into products such as composite resins,adhesives,and denture systems.Additionally,they have shown potential for modifying oral ceramic materials and an-ti-tumor effects.This review focuses on the latest research progress in various fields of oral medicine,including endodontics,periodon-tology,implantology,prosthodontics,and orthodontics,based on the biological characteristics of nano-cerium oxide.Our goal is to re-veal the potential of cerium oxide in the diagnosis and treatment of oral diseases and to provide ideas and references for the expansion of clinical applications in oral medicine.
