Objective:
To explore the relationship between snack consumption and depressive symptoms in first year junior high school students with different left behind experiences in Yunnan Province, so as to provide a basis for improving depressive symptoms among first year junior high school students with different left behind experiences.
Methods:
From October to December 2022,a cluster random sampling method was used to select 8 500 first year junior high school students from 11 ethnic minority areas (Fugong County, Longling County, Longyang District, Luchun County, Mojiang County, Nanjian County, Qiaojia County, Shuangjiang County, Tengchong City, Yuanmou County, Zhenyuan County) in Yunnan Province for a questionnaire survey. The Chinese version of Depression Anxiety Stress Scale-21 was applied to assess depressive symptoms in first year junior high school students, and snack consumption was collected by employing food frequency questionnaire. The generalized linear model was used to analyze the association between first year junior high school students snack consumption and depressive symptoms, and the analysis was stratified according to left behind experience.
Results:
The detection rates of depressive symptoms among firstyear junior high school students with and without left behind experience were 36.25% and 26.91%, respectively. After controlling for confounding variables, the generalized linear model analysis showed that sweet snacks ( β=0.16, 95%CI =0.07-0.25), fast food ( β=0.14, 95%CI =0.04-0.23) and carbonated drinks ( β=0.09, 95%CI =0.01-0.17) of first year junior high school students with left behind experience (all P <0.05). Compared with those without such behavior, the risk of depressive symptoms was higher in consumption of fast food ( β=0.13, 95%CI =0.07-0.18) and carbonated drinks ( β=0.10, 95%CI =0.06-0.15)among first year junior high school students without left behind experience (both P <0.05).
Conclusion
Snack consumption among first year junior high school students in Yunnan may increase the risk of developing depressive symptoms, while first year junior high school students with left behind experience may have a greater risk of developing depressive symptoms.

Accurate prediction of drug-target interactions (DTIs) plays a pivotal role in drug discovery, facilitating optimization of lead compounds, drug repurposing and elucidation of drug side effects. However, traditional DTI prediction methods are often limited by incomplete biological data and insufficient representation of protein features. In this study, we proposed KG-CNNDTI, a novel knowledge graph-enhanced framework for DTI prediction, which integrates heterogeneous biological information to improve model generalizability and predictive performance. The proposed model utilized protein embeddings derived from a biomedical knowledge graph via the Node2Vec algorithm, which were further enriched with contextualized sequence representations obtained from ProteinBERT. For compound representation, multiple molecular fingerprint schemes alongside the Uni-Mol pre-trained model were evaluated. The fused representations served as inputs to both classical machine learning models and a convolutional neural network-based predictor. Experimental evaluations across benchmark datasets demonstrated that KG-CNNDTI achieved superior performance compared to state-of-the-art methods, particularly in terms of Precision, Recall, F1-Score and area under the precision-recall curve (AUPR). Ablation analysis highlighted the substantial contribution of knowledge graph-derived features. Moreover, KG-CNNDTI was employed for virtual screening of natural products against Alzheimer's disease, resulting in 40 candidate compounds. 5 were supported by literature evidence, among which 3 were further validated in vitro assays.

3.Research advances in obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome comorbid with cerebral small vessel disease
Journal of Apoplexy and Nervous Diseases 2025;42(12):1089-1094
Obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome(OSAHS) is a prevalent sleep-related breathing disorder characterized by recurrent pharyngeal collapse during sleep,and it is recognized as an important risk factor for cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events. Cerebral small vessel disease(CSVD) refers to a series of clinical, imaging, and pathological syndromes that arise from pathological alterations in the small arteries, arterioles, capillaries, venules, and small veins within the brain. There is a close association between OSAHS and CSVD,and OSAHS is significantly associated with various neuroimaging biomarkers for CSVD.This article reviews the current status of research on the association between the imaging features of OSAHS and CSVD and related mechanisms, in order to provide a reference for future research.

Urinary incontinence is a common complication following robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP). Urethral length has been identified as a factor affecting postoperative continence recovery. In this meta-analysis, we examined the association between use of the maximal urethral length preservation (MULP) technique and postoperative urinary continence in patients undergoing RARP. We conducted a comprehensive search of PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, and the Cochrane Library up to December 31, 2023. The quality of the literature was assessed using the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale. A random-effects meta-analysis was performed to synthesize data and calculate the odds ratio (OR) from eligible studies on continence and MULP. Six studies involving 1869 patients met the eligibility criteria. MULP was positively associated with both early continence (1 month after RARP; Z = 3.62, P = 0.003, OR = 3.10, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.68-5.73) and late continence (12 months after RARP; Z = 2.34, P = 0.019, OR = 2.10, 95% CI: 1.13-3.90). Oncological outcomes indicated that MULP did not increase the overall positive surgical margin rate or the positive surgical margin status at the prostate apex (both P > 0.05). In conclusion, the use of the MULP technique in RARP significantly improved both early and late postoperative continence outcomes without compromising oncological outcomes.

Objective:To develop a formula correlating body weight and the insertion length of peripherally inserted central catheters (PICC) in very low birth weight infants (VLBWI) undergoing lower limb PICC placement, aiming to improve the success rate of one-time catheter placement.Methods:A prospective research method was adopted, 205 VLBWI patients who were hospitalized in the NICU of Shenzhen Maternal and Child Health Hospital from May 2023 to February 2024 and had indwelling PICC in the lower extremities were selected as the research subjects using the convenience sampling method. Data including gender, insertion vein, body weight on the day of catheterization, and the vertical distance from the puncture site to the first popliteal crease were collected. Pearson correlation analysis and linear regression analysis were used to construct a predictive formula for estimating the insertion length of PICC based on body weight. The Bland-Altman plot was applied to evaluate the consistency between the predicted insertion depth using the formula and the actual correct insertion length.Results:A total of 182 VLBWI were included in the study, comprising 102 male infants and 80 female infants. The catheterization sites were the right lower extremity in 166 cases and the left lower extremity in 16 cases. The body weight was (1.08 ± 0.26) kg. The vertical distance from the puncture site to the first popliteal crease was (5.58 ± 1.72) cm. The prediction formula for the length of lower extremity PICC catheterization was constructed through linear regression analysis: PICC insertion length = 8.013 + [5.194×body weight (kg)] ± vertical distance from the puncture site to the popliteal crease (cm). Consistency evaluation showed good agreement between the predicted insertion depth and the actual correct insertion length, with 95% of the measurement differences falling within the limits of agreement. The mean difference was 0.07 cm ( P > 0.05). Conclusions:The weight-based formula derived for VLBWI provides a basis for predicting the optimal insertion length of PICC in clinical practice.
