ObjectiveTo investigate somatization symptoms in adolescents during frequent earthquakes in Hefei， and to explore their correlation with earthquake experiences. MethodsA cross-sectional survey was used to select 324 adolescents in Hefei as the survey objects. The self-rating scale of somatization symptoms （SSS） and the fatigue intensity scale （FIS） were used to evaluate the somatization symptoms and fatigue degree of middle school students， and multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used to explore the related factors of somatization symptoms and fatigue among middle school students. ResultsA total of 324 adolescents were included， and the overall detection rate of somatization symptoms was 6.5%， and the detection rate of moderate or above fatigue was 20.1%. The results of regression analysis showed that adolescents who were concerned about the earthquake for a longer time （≥1 h） had a higher risk of somatization symptoms （OR=5.430， 95%CI： 1.547-19.058）， and adolescents who received pre-earthquake training had a lower degree of fatigue （OR=0.535， 95%CI： 0.292-0.981） （P<0.05）. ConclusionDuring the frequent earthquakes， adolescents have more somatization symptoms and fatigue. Therefore， it is crucial to enhance health education， reduce the emphasis on event-related reports， and implement earthquake prevention and disaster reduction training to improve the physical and mental health of adolescents.

Mitochondrial biogenesis represents a promising therapeutic target in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) due to its essential role in cancer cell metabolism and survival. The natural compound γ-Elemene exhibits potent anti-tumor activity, but its effects on mitochondrial regulation in TNBC remain unclear. In this study, we demonstrate that γ-Elemene induces dose-dependent cytotoxicity in MDA-MB-468 and HCC1806 TNBC cells while significantly impairing mitochondrial function, as shown by reduced membrane potential, oxidative phosphorylation capacity, and ATP production. γ-Elemene treatment markedly suppressed mitochondrial biogenesis, decreasing mitochondrial DNA content and downregulating key mitochondrial genes and proteins. These effects were associated with reduced expression of the master regulators NRF1 and TFAM, but independent of PGC-1α expression levels.Mechanistically, γ-Elemene upregulated the acetyltransferase GCN5, leading to enhanced PGC-1α acetylation. This upregulation occurs primarily through increased GCN5 transcription. Genetic ablation of GCN5 completely reversed γ-Elemene-induced PGC-1α acetylation and restored mitochondrial biogenesis and cell viability, establishing a critical role for GCN5 in mediating these effects. Our findings reveal a novel mechanism whereby γ-Elemene disrupts mitochondrial function in TNBC through GCN5-mediated PGC-1α acetylation, providing new insights into its anti-cancer properties and potential therapeutic applications against TNBC.

Objective To analyze the genomic characteristics of Legionella pneumophila (L. pneumophila) isolated from industrial circulating cooling water in workplace. Methods A total of 20 L. pneumophila strains isolated from industrial circulating cooling water collected from eight chemical enterprises were selected as the research subjects. Whole-genome sequencing was performed on the strains, followed by multilocus sequence typing (MLST), whole-genome single nucleotide polymorphism analysis, virulence factor profiling, and antibiotic resistance gene detection. Results The dominant MLST typing among the 20 L. pneumophila strains was ST2. Serogroup 1 (Lp1) strains exhibited high genetic diversity. Strains from different enterprises showed substantial genomic diversity, suggesting possible inter-enterprise dissemination. Each isolate harbored 175-295 virulence genes; among them, virulence genes were identified, and 139 genes were detected in all the 20 strains. These genes primarily included those related to the Dot/Icm type Ⅳ bacterial secretion system, flagellar synthesis and motility, and type Ⅳ pili. The number of virulence genes carried by L. pneumophila strains of different ST types differed (P<0.01), with unidentified sequence types harboring more virulence genes than other STs (P<0.01). A total of four resistance genes were predicted, including aminoglycoside phosphotransferase-encoding gene APH(9)-Ia, carbapenemase-encoding gene OXA-29, and efflux pump genes-encoding genes LpeA and LpeB, with detection rates of 100.00%, 100.00%, 10.00%, and 10.00%, respectively. These genes may confer resistance to cephalosporins, penicillins, and aminoglycosides, and all strains were multidrug resistance. Conclusion L. pneumophila isolated from industrial recirculating cooling water exhibits high genetic diversity, strong pathogenicity, and significant multidrug resistance potential.

Objective To investigate the expression of serum tumor-associated antigens(TAAs)in patients with rheumatoid arthritis(RA)and analyze their clinical significance for RA.Methods A total of 214 RA patients were enrolled in the RA group,while 198 age-and gender-matched healthy individuals were included in the HC group.Rheumatoid factor(RF),anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide antibody(Anti-CCP),C-reactive protein(CRP),erythrocyte sedimentation rate(ESR),interleu-kin-6(IL-6),ferritin levels,as well as gender,age,disease duration,disease activity score(DAS28)and clinical manifestations were collected from the RA group.The expression of TAAs in RA patients and the clinical characteristics of TAA-positive patients were analyzed.Spearman correla-tion analysis was used to evaluate the relationships between TAAs and clinical indicators in RA pa-tients.Results The positive rate of carbohydrate antigen 125(CA125)in the RA group was 8.88％,which was significantly higher than 1.01％ in the HC group(P＜0.001).Serum CA125 and cytok-eratin fragment 19(CYFRA21-1)levels in the RA group were significantly higher than those in the HC group,whereas alpha-fetoprotein(AFP),carcinoembryonic antigen(CEA),carbohydrate anti-gen 199(CA199)and neuron-specific enolase(NSE)levels were significantly lower(P＜0.001).TAA-positive patients had significantly older age and higher rates of pulmonary interstitial lesions compared to TAA-negative patients(P＜0.05).Patients with DAS28 scores＞5.1 had significantly higher CA125 levels than those with DAS28 scores ≤5.1(P＜0.05).CA125 levelswere positively corre-lated with DAS28 scores,ESR,RF,and anti-CCP antibodies(r=0.142,0.140,0.268,0.183;P＜0.05).Conclusion In RA patients,the positivity rate and levels of some serum TAAs are ele-vated,and TAA-positive patients tend to be older and have higher incidence of pulmonary interstitial lesions.CA125 levels are positively correlated with RA disease activity.

Objective:To investigate the pollution status of legionella pneumophila of industrial circulating cooling towers, and explore the factors affecting the positive rate and quantity of legionella pneumophila, in order to provide data support for the risk assessment and hierarchical management of legionella pneumophila in workplaces.Methods:In February, May, August and October 2023, the cooling water samples were collected from a total of 20 industrial circulating cooling towers of 9 enterprises in an industrial park in Shanghai. The water temperature, free residual chlorine, total residual chlorine, turbidity, chroma, pH, conductivity, chemical oxygen consumption, iron content and total plate count in the water samples were detected. Meanwhile, the legionella pneumophila in the water samples were qualitatively and quantitatively analyzed, and the influence of water quality indexes on the positive rate and number of legionella pneumophila detected was analyzed by logistic regression and linear regression respectively.Results:The positive rates of legionella pneumophila in the first to fourth quarters of 20 industrial circulating cooling towers of 9 chemical enterprises were 35% (7/20), 45% (9/20), 45% (9/20), and 85% (17/20). The serotypes of legionella pneumophila detected in the cooling tower were mainly legionella pneumophila type 1 (95.2%, 40/42), and the number of legionella pneumophila ranged from 0.2 to 316.8 cfu/ml. Circulating cooling water temperature ( OR=1.36, 95% CI: 1.12-1.64, P=0.001) and conductivity ( OR=1.02, 95% CI: 1.00-1.03, P=0.026) were independent risk factors affecting the detection of legionella pneumophila. There was a positive correlation between chemical oxygen consumption and the detected amount of legionella pneumophila ( β=8.08, P=0.002) . Conclusion:The positive rate of legionella pneumophila in industrial circulating cooling water system is high, and the detected quantity fluctuates greatly, which may have health risks, suggesting that it is necessary to pay attention to the water quality management such as water temperature, conductivity and chemical oxygen consumption of industrial circulating cooling water and the monitoring and control of legionella pneumophila.

Objective:To study the characteristics of oral microbiota in patients with periodontitis and its effects on Toll-like recep-tors(TLRs)signaling pathway and levels of inflammatory factors.Methods:Fifty patients with periodontal disease who received treatment in our hospital from January 2021 to September 2023 were selected as the trial group,and 50 healthy physical examination people during the same period were selected as the control group.Subgingival microbiota was cultured and gingival crevicular fluid samples were collected.Subgingival bacterial diversity was detected by 16S rRNA,interleukin-6(IL-6),IL-1β and tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)levels in gingival crevicular fluid were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay,and TLRs signaling path-way was detected by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction.Results:The subgingival Simpson index in the trial group was higher than that in the control group.Subgingival microbiota was significantly separated between the two groups,and the relative abundance of Prevotella,Hemophilus and Veillonella were significantly different(P＜0.05).The number of microbiota in the trial group was higher than that in the control group(P＜0.05).The levels of IL-6,IL-1β,TNF-α and mRNA relative expression of TLRs signaling pathway in gingival crevicular fluid in trial group were higher than those in control group(P＜0.05).The levels of IL-6,IL-1β and TNF-α in gingival crevicular fluid of patients with periodontal disease were positively correlated with the number of microbiota of Parvobacteria,Tenella forsythiae,Prevotella intermedia and Porphyromonas gingivalis.Logistic regression analysis showed that the number of microbiota of Parvobacteria,Tenneella forsythiae,Prevotella intermedia and Porphyromonas gingivalis were independent factors influencing the high expression of IL-6,IL-1β and TNF-α.Conclusion:In periodontitis patients,the subgingi-val microbiota was changed,the mRNA expression of TLRs signaling pathway and the expression of inflammatory factors were in-creased,and the number of subgingival microbiota was significantly correlated with the expression of inflammatory factors.
