Objective: To investigate whether insufficient nutritional health knowledge can increase the risk of obesity conferred by the surrounding environment, so as to provide a basis for improving the physical health of primary school students by their knowledge of nutritional health. Methods: From May to June 2017, a stratified cluster random sampling method was used to select 3 669 primary school students from 2 primary schools in Shenyang for anthropometric measurements and a student questionnaire survey. School neighborhood environment data were obtained from geospatial analyses conducted by using SuperMap GIS 9D. A self designed questionnaire based on the Chinese Dietary Guidelines (2016) was used to assess individual nutritional health knowledge levels.The frequency of fruit and vegetable intake was divided into four quartiles ( Q 1- Q 4), and the land use efficiency was divided into three quintiles ( T 1- T 3). Multiple Logistic regression and linear regression analyses were employed to examine the relationships between insufficient nutritional health knowledge, school neighborhood environment, and the frequency of fruit and vegetable intake, body mass index (BMI), and perirenal fat thickness (PrFT) among primary school students. Results: After adjusting for age, sex, place of residence, family annual income, parental education level, and physical activity, multiple Logistic regression analysis showed that higher land use efficiency around school ( T 2 and T 3)( OR =1.37, 2.45), the presence of ≥1 shopping mall ( OR =1.43), and ≥1 fruit and vegetable store ( OR =1.51) were associated with a higher frequency of fruit and vegetable intake ( Q 4) (all P <0.05). Multiple linear regression analysis revealed that students attending schools with higher land use ( T 3: β = -0.72 ), ≥1 shopping mall ( β = -0.45 ), and multiple fruit and vegetable stores ( β =-0.33) had lower PrFT (all P <0.05). Interaction analysis indicated that the positive association between school neighborhood environment and fruit and vegetable intake frequency was attenuated by insufficient nutritional health knowledge [ T 3 land use×insufficient nutritional knowledge score ( OR = 0.05); ≥1 shopping mall × insufficient nutritional knowledge score ( OR =0.06); ≥1 fruit and vegetable store×insufficient nutritional knowledge score( OR =0.07)] (all P < 0.05). The negative association between school neighborhood environment and the extreme quartile of PrFT was attenuated by insufficient nutritional health knowledge [ T 3 land use mix×insufficient nutritional knowledge score ( β =2.31); ≥1 shopping mall×insufficient nutritional knowledge score( β =3.59)](both P <0.05). Conclusions The healthy food environment around schools is negatively correlated with the obesity risk among primary school students.However, the association is affected by their insufficient nutritional knowledge. Comprehensive intervention strategies should be implemented to prevent the prevalence of obesity by addressing both individual and environmental factors influencing dietary habits.

The present study aimed to explore whether hydrogen sulfide (H₂S) improved hypoxic pulmonary hypertension (HPH) in rats by inhibiting aerobic glycolysis-pyroptosis. Male Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were randomly divided into normal group, normal+NaHS group, hypoxia group, and hypoxia+NaHS group, with 6 rats in each group. The control group rats were placed in a normoxic (21% O₂) environment and received daily intraperitoneal injections of an equal volume of normal saline. The normal+NaHS group rats were placed in a normoxic environment and intraperitoneally injected with 14 μmol/kg NaHS daily. The hypoxia group rats were placed in a hypoxia chamber, and the oxygen controller inside the chamber maintained the oxygen concentration at 9% to 10% by controlling the N₂ flow rate. An equal volume of normal saline was injected intraperitoneally every day. The hypoxia+NaHS group rats were also placed in an hypoxia chamber and intraperitoneally injected with 14 μmol/kg NaHS daily. After the completion of the four-week modeling, the mean pulmonary artery pressure (mPAP) of each group was measured using right heart catheterization technique, and the right ventricular hypertrophy index (RVHI) was weighed and calculated. HE staining was used to observe pathological changes in lung tissue, Masson staining was used to observe fibrosis of lung tissue, and Western blot was used to detect protein expression levels of hexokinase 2 (HK2), pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH), pyruvate kinase isozyme type M2 (PKM2), nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3), GSDMD-N-terminal domain (GSDMD-N), Caspase-1, interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and IL-18 in lung tissue. ELISA was used to detect contents of IL-1β and IL-18 in lung tissue. The results showed that, compared with the normal control group, there were no significant changes in all indexes in the normal+NaHS group, while the hypoxia group exhibited significantly increased mPAP and RVHI, thickened pulmonary vascular wall, narrowed lumen, increased collagen fibers, up-regulated expression levels of aerobic glycolysis-related proteins (HK2 and PKM2), up-regulated expression levels of pyroptosis-related proteins (NLRP3, GSDMD-N, Caspase-1, IL-1β, and IL-18), and increased contents of IL-1β and IL-18. These changes of the above indexes in the hypoxia group were significantly reversed by NaHS. These results suggest that H₂S can improve rat HPH by inhibiting aerobic glycolysis-pyroptosis.

The aim of this study was to investigate the contribution of lung zinc ions to pathogenesis of lung ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury in rats. Male Sprague Dawley (SD) rats were randomly divided into control group, lung I/R group (I/R group), lung I/R + low-dose zinc chloride group (LZnCl₂+I/R group), lung I/R + high-dose ZnCl₂ group (HZnCl₂+I/R group), lung I/R + medium-dose ZnCl₂ group (MZnCl₂+I/R group) and TPEN+MZnCl₂+I/R group (n = 8 in each group). Inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) was used to measure the concentration of zinc ions in lung tissue. The degree of lung tissue injury was analyzed by observing HE staining, alveolar damage index, lung wet/dry weight ratio and lung tissue gross changes. TUNEL staining was used to detect cellular apoptosis in lung tissue. Western blot and RT-qPCR were used to determine the protein expression levels of caspase-3 and ZIP8, as well as the mRNA expression levels of zinc transporters (ZIP, ZNT) in lung tissue. The mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) of lung tissue was detected by JC-1 MMP detection kit. The results showed that, compared with the control group, the lung tissue damage, lung wet/dry weight ratio and alveolar damage index were significantly increased in the I/R group. And in the lung tissue, the concentration of Zn²⁺ was markedly decreased, while the cleaved caspase-3/caspase-3 ratio and apoptotic levels were significantly increased. The expression levels of ZIP8 mRNA and protein were down-regulated significantly, while the mRNA expression of other zinc transporters remained unchanged. There was also a significant decrease in MMP. Compared with the I/R group, both MZnCl₂+I/R group and HZnCl₂+I/R group exhibited significantly reduced lung tissue injury, lung wet/dry weight ratio and alveolar damage index, increased Zn²⁺ concentration, decreased ratio of cleaved caspase-3/caspase-3 and apoptosis, and up-regulated expression levels of ZIP8 mRNA and protein. In addition, the MMP was significantly increased in the lung tissue. Zn²⁺ chelating agent TPEN reversed the above-mentioned protective effects of medium-dose ZnCl₂ on the lung tissue in the I/R group. The aforementioned results suggest that exogenous administration of ZnCl₂ can improve lung I/R injury in rats.

OBJECTIVES: This systematic review examines recent pharmacoeconomic literature on denosumab' cost-effectiveness for bone metastasis treatment, providing evidence-based insights to guide healthcare policy decisions. METHODS: A comprehensive literature search was performed across Cochrane, PubMed, EMBASE (Ovid), CNKI, and Wanfang databases to identify original articles published between 2017 and 2023. Key words consisted of bone metastases, denosumab, and cost-effectiveness in the search strategy. The methodological quality of the included studies was assessed utilizing the revised Consolidated Health Economic Evaluation Reporting Standards (CHEERS 2022). Data was extracted regarding methodological characteristics and cost-effectiveness analyses. RESULTS: A total of 111 studies were retrieved, of which 6 met the inclusion criteria. All included studies were based on clinical trials and published literature data and exhibited high methodological quality. Up to 83% (5 out of 6) of comparisons demonstrated that denosumab was more cost-effective or dominant compared to zoledronic acid. The adjusted incremental cost-effectiveness ratios varied substantially by tumor type, ranging from CZK 436,339.09 to USD 136,234 per skeletal-related event avoided and from CZK 61,580.95 to USD 118,392.11 per quality-adjusted life year gained. CONCLUSIONS The majority of the included studies support denosumab as a more cost-effective treatment option for bone metastases in solid tumors compared to zoledronic acid. The application of CHEER (2022) enhances the reliability of pharmacoeconomic evaluations.
