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.

ObjectiveTo provide more basic information of comparative medicine for the study of biological changes and pathogenesis of COVID-19 by systematical sorting and analyzing the transcriptome data.MethodsFollowing a retrieval strategy, using COVID-19 and SARS-CoV-2 as key words, transcriptome datasets related to COVID-19 from January 2020 to May 2023 were collected from GEO, ArrayExpress and GEN Transcriptome databases. The composition, distribution, and research application of COVID-19 transcriptome data resources were analyzed. Data distribution was visually displayed and correlation analysis was performed. The research applications and limitations of existing COVID-19 transcriptome data were analyzed from the perspectives of clinical medicine and comparative medicine, focusing on clinical-related molecular mechanisms, biomarkers and related immune responses, treatment intervention strategies, etc. The research value and application prospects were discussed.Results A total of 975 sets of COVID-19 transcriptome data were included. Among three databases, datasets from humans accounted for the highest proportion, namely 71.9%, 77.9%, and 90%, respectively. Species other than humans, such as mice, were the main sources of data, with the respiratory and nervous systems having the highest distribution of data. Twenty-seven datasets were associated with clinical significance. Analysis revealed that respiratory tract injury and other related molecular mechanisms were obtained through transcriptome data mining. Biomarkers such as cfDNA could be used as therapeutic targets. The severity of COVID-19 infection was associated with cell changes and disorders represented by M1 macrophages. Comparative medical analysis showed that mice, hamsters, and other animals were susceptible to SARS-CoV-2. Rhesus monkeys and cynomolgus monkeys exhibited infection characteristics highly similar to human. Apart from respiratory symptoms, hamsters also exhibited digestive system symptoms. SARS-CoV-2 can replicate in the respiratory organs of various susceptible animals, the intestines of ferrets and the ears of minks, resulting in interstitial pneumonia, diffuse lung injury and other pathological changes of varying degrees. Based on the differences in immune responses, hamsters can be used for neutralizing antibody reaction research.Conclusion Currently there is a wealth of COVID-19 transcriptome data, but there is a lack of comparative transcriptome research. Transcriptomics can be combined with comparative medicine to further explore the differences in comparative medicine of COVID-19.

BACKGROUND:Critical energy release rate is a global fracture parameter that could be measured during the failing process,and its value may change under different failure modes even in the same structure. OBJECTIVE:To propose an approach to predict the critical energy release rate in the femoral cortical bone structure under different failure modes. METHODS:Three-point bending and axial compression experiments and the corresponding fracture simulations were performed on the rat femoral cortical bone structures.Different critical energy release rates were repeatedly assigned to the models to perform fracture simulation,and the predicted load-displacement curves in each simulation were compared with the experimental data to back-calculate the critical energy release rate.The successful fit was that the differences in the fracture parameters between the predicted and experimental results were less than 5%. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)The results showed that the cortical bone structure occurred tensile open failure under three-point bending load,and the predicted critical energy release rate was 0.16 N/mm.(2)The same cortical bone structure occurred shear open failure under axial compression load,and the predicted critical energy release rate was 0.12 N/mm,which indicates that the critical energy release rate of the same cortical bone structure under different failure modes was different.(3)A comprehensive analysis from the perspectives of material mechanical properties and damage mechanism was conducted to reveal the reasons for the differences in the critical energy release rate in the cortical bone structure under different failure modes,which provided a theoretical basis for the measurement of the energy release rate and the accurate fracture simulation.

Objective:This study introduces a novel approach utilizing a self-made drug delivery cannula implanted into the cerebellomedullary cistern(CMC)of rats to allow repeated administrations in conscious subjects.Methods:A self-made medication cannula is inserted through a drilled hole at the midpoint of the occipital crest of the rat's skull,de-scending along the inner wall of the occipital bone until reaching the CMC,and securing it in place with skull screws and self-curing resin.Lipopolysaccharide(LPS)is injected into the CMC to induce neuroinflammation,and the feasibility of this method is assessed using X-ray imaging,behavioral testing,and immunofluorescence staining.Results:The place-ment of the brain cannula was confirmed using X-ray film and pontamine sky blue staining.Rats in the LPS group exhib-ited a lower facial mechanical pain threshold compared to the Control group(P＜0.001),along with reduced residence time in the open field center(P＜0.01).Immunofluorescence staining revealed LPS-induced activation of caudal spinal trigeminal nucleus(SpVc)microglia.Conclusion:This method proves to be suitable for multiple administrations to the cerebellomedullary cistern of conscious rats,enabling the study of the SpVc's role in pain modulation.

Objective This study analyzes the omics data resources in human-infecting coronavirus animal models collected from various public databases,focusing on data distribution,dataset quantity,data types,species,strains,and research content.It aims to enhance our understanding of biological characteristics and pathogenic mechanisms of coronaviruses,thereby providing a solid foundation for devising effective therapeutic strategies and preventive measures.Methods Query strategies,including specific virus names,time ranges,and inclusion and exclusion criteria,were defined to retrieve data from major public omics databases such as GEO and ArrayExpress.Secondary filtering was performed based on different field types to obtain a more accurate data list.An omics data text database was established for bibliometric analysis.Co-occurrence networks were constructed for the analysis of the correlation strengths between different research themes,technical methods,and involved species.The cell types,organs,and biological pathways involved in studies were examined to further elucidate the pathogenic interplay between pathogens and hosts.Results About twenty public databases containing coronavirus-related omics data were identified,with a primary focus on novel coronavirus infection.Commonly used species include humans,mice,hamsters,and monkeys,while the commonly used virus strains are Wuhan-Hu-1 and USA-WA1/2020.Lung tissues are primarily used in animal models such as mice,macaques,and ferrets,while airway epithelial cells and Calu-3 cells are predominantly employed in human-related studies.Expression profiling data indicate that gene pathways involved in inflammation,cytokine response,complement pathway,cell damage,proliferation,and differentiation are significantly upregulated after infection.Proteomics studies reveal significant changes in phosphoproteome,ubiquitinome,and total proteome of patient samples at different infection stages.Specific protein categories,including viral receptors and proteases,transcription factors,cytokines,proteins associated with coagulation system,angiogenesis-related proteins,and fibrosis markers,show alterations after coronavirus infection.In addition,metabolomics data suggest that phosphocholine,phosphoethanolamine,arachidonic acid,and oleic acid could serve as potential metabolic markers.Epigenomics research indicates m6A methylation plays a role in SARS-CoV-2 replication,infection,and transmission,affecting host cell-virus interactions.Among these,N,S,and non-structural proteins 2 and 3 exhibit the most significant ubiquitination.Trends in microbiomics research suggest that microbial communities in the gut and wastewater are emerging as new research focuses.Conclusion The data types of coronavirus omics are diverse,with a wide variety of models and cell types used.The selection of species and technical methods for modelling varies based on the characteristics of different viruses.Multi-omics data from animal models of coronavirus infection can reveal key interactions between hosts and pathogens,identifying biomarkers and potential therapeutic targets,and provide valuable information for a deeper understanding of biological characteristics and infection mechanisms of coronaviruses.

Objective To evaluate the therapeutic effect of Huangqin Decoction(HQD)on ulcerative colitis(UC)in mice and explore its mechanism.Methods Male Balb/c mice were randomly divided into normal control group,model group,mesalazine group(5-ASA,200 mg/kg),and low-,medium-and high-dose HQD groups(2.275,4.55 and 9.1 g/kg,respectively).With the exception of those in the normal control group,all the mice were exposed to 3%DSS solution in drinking water for 7 days to establish UC models.After treatment with the indicated drugs,the mice were assessed for colon injury and apoptosis using HE,AB-PAS and TUNEL staining,and the expression levels of inflammatory factors were detected with ELISA.Western blotting,immunohistochemistry and qRT-PCR were used to detect the changes in protein expressions associated with the intestinal chemical barrier,mechanical barrier and endoplasmic reticulum stress(ERS).Results HQD treatment significantly reduced DAI score and macro score of UC mice,decreased colonic epithelial cell apoptosis,lowered expressions of IL-6,TNF-α,IL-1β and IL-8,and enhanced the expressions of MUC2 and TFF3.HQD treatment also upregulated the protein expressions of claudin-1,occludin and E-cadherin,reduced the expressions of GRP78,CHOP,caspase-12 and caspase-3,decreased the phosphorylation levels of PERK,eIF2α and IRE1α,and increased the Bcl-2/Bax ratio in the colon tissues of UC mice.Conclusion HQD inhibits colonic epithelial cell apoptosis and improves intestinal barrier function in UC mice possibly by reducing ERS mediated by the PERK and IRE1α signaling pathways.

The five movements and six qi theory(hereinafter referred to as"movement qi theory")runs through Liu Wansu's med-ical theoretical system,which is mainly reflected in its influence on the theory of pathogenesis,the creation of fiery heat theory,and the influence of Liu Wansu's clinical diagnosis and treatment thoughts.The influence of movement qi theory on Liu Wansu's pathogen-esis theory includes three aspects:six qi alternation on pathogenesis,five movement hyperactivities on pathogenesis,and the root and branch of movement qi on pathogenesis.Liu's understanding of the pathogenesis of six qi and the philosophical thought of"water is good and fire is evil"mainly influenced the creation of Liu Wansu's"fire theory".The influence of movement qi theory on Liu Wansu's clinical diagnosis and treatment thoughts is mainly reflected in the classification of viscera,meridian and collateral diseases based on the theory of root and branch of middle qi,the diagnosis of pulses based on movement qi theory,the deduction of disease transmission and change using movement qi thinking,and the preparation of medicines based on qi.Liu Wansu initiated the innovation and debate of medical theory in the Jin and Yuan Dynasties,and had a profound impact on the rise of warm febrile diseases in the Ming and Qing Dynasties.
