BackgroundCurrently, the problem of depressed mood in college students is becoming more prominent. The experience of childhood maltreatment is a significant contributor to depression among college students. Although the association between the two has been confirmed, the specific psychosocial mechanisms underlying how childhood maltreatment affects college students' mental health remain insufficiently evidenced. ObjectiveTo explore the mediating role of emotion regulation difficulties in the relationship between childhood maltreatment and depression among college students, and to investigate the moderated effects of psychological resilience and family socioeconomic status, aiming to provide references for improving depressive symptoms in college students. MethodsOn 14 March 2024, a cluster sampling method was employed to recruit 751 college students from a university in Heilongjiang Province. Participants were assessed with Childhood Trauma Questionnaire (CTQ), Difficulties in Emotion Regulation Scale (DERS), Patients' Health Questionnaire Depression Scale-9 item (PHQ-9), 10-item Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC-10) and Family Socioeconomic Status Questionnaire. Pearson correlation analysis was adopted to examine the correlation between the scores of scales. Model 4 and model 7 in Process 4.2 were used to test the mediating effects of emotional regulation difficulties and the moderated effects of psychological resilience and family socioeconomic status. Results① A total of 712 (94.81%) valid questionnaires were collected. ② College students' CTQ score was positively correlated with DERS score and PHQ-9 score (r=0.296, 0.507, P<0.01), and negatively correlated with CD-RISC-10 score and Family Socioeconomic Status Questionnaire score (r=-0.148, -0.229, P<0.01). ③ The indirect effect value of difficulties in emotion regulation on the relationship between childhood maltreatment and depression was 0.091 (95% CI: 0.018~0.046), accounting for 17.95% of the total effect. ④ The first half of the mediation model "childhood maltreatment → difficulties in emotion regulation → depression" (childhood maltreatment → difficulties in emotion regulation) was moderated by psychological resilience (β=-0.030, t=-6.147, 95% CI: -0.040~-0.020) and family socioeconomic status (β=-0.051, t=-3.929, 95% CI: -0.077~-0.026). ConclusionChildhood maltreatment exerts both a direct effect on college students' depression and an indirect effect through emotion regulation difficulties. The childhood maltreatment → emotion regulation difficulties pathway in this mediation model is moderated by psychological resilience and family socioeconomic status.

Spine fracture and dislocation are common traumatic spinal conditions that often require surgical intervention due to compromised spinal stability. Surgical approaches include anterior, posterior, and combined anterior-posterior spinal procedures. According to the specific surgical requirements, patients may be placed in the prone position or repositioned between prone and supine positions during surgery. Intraoperative repositioning has become an essential step in patient positioning. However, during repositioning, patients with spinal fracture and dislocation are at increased risk for complications such as hemodynamic instability, nerve injury, and pressure injuries to the skin and soft tissue. Notably, due to the instability of the spinal cord, even minor manipulations can further exacerbate the damage, potentially leading to severe outcomes like paraplegia. Although the current clinical guidelines provide instructive recommendations for standard position, there remains no specific protocols for intraoperative repositioning in patients with spine fracture and dislocation. With a concern for the lack of clinical studies on positioning techniques, risk prevention, and operational norms for special patients, no applicable guidelines or standards are available. A consensus was required to provide clinical reference, meet the requirements of surgical treatment, and minimize the safety risks of patients caused by improper placement of positions. Professional Committee of Operating Room Nursing of Shaanxi Nursing Association organized experts in nursing management and operating room nursing from major hospitals across China to formulate Expert consensus on intraoperative repositioning for patients with spinal fracture and dislocation ( version 2025). The consensus provides 11 recommendations covering pre-repositioning preparation, intraoperative maneuvers, and post-repositioning observation, aiming to provide references for clinical standardization of the intraoperative repositioning process and protection of patients′ safety.

Perimenopausal anxiety and depression state fall under the categories of"visceral agitation"and"perimenopausal syndrome"in traditional Chinese medicine(TCM).Grounded in the theory of"Yang transforms qi,yin shapes form",this study posits that the pathogenesis of this condition is complex,often presenting with concurrent deficiency and excess syndromes,and is closely associated with yang deficiency-induced stagnation and qi stagnation leading to mental decline.The pathological mechanism is summarized as yang deficiency being the root and qi stagnation the manifestation.This article proposes a"yang-oriented treatment"approach for perimenopausal anxiety-depression disorders,employing a stepwise integrated acupuncture protocol termed"One Needling,Two Moxibustion,Three Consolidation":"One Needling"prioritizes regulating qi flow via acupuncture to soothe the liver and harmonize the spirit;"Two Moxibustion"utilizes refined moxibustion to warm yang,resolve stagnation,and activate yang circulation;"Three Consolidation"combines bloodletting therapy to remove stasis and regenerate tissues with intradermal needle embedding to stimulate yang and regulate visceral functions.This synergistic protocol aims to nourish the heart-mind,awaken the orifices of consciousness,alleviate perimenopausal anxiety and depressive symptoms,and consolidate therapeutic efficacy.

Perimenopausal women are more susceptible to fire pathogen disturbances,often resulting in the restlessness of the mind owing to the deficiency and decline of the thoroughfare and conception vessels,as well as the insufficiency of the essence and blood of the viscera.CHENG Zhongling's theory of thief and child fire in Medical Insights proposes that thief fire primarily arises from exogenous pathogen invasion and improper diet,leading to syndromes such as food retention in the stomach or phlegm-fire stagnation.In contrast,child fire is generated endogenously,often owing to liver and kidney deficiency,resulting in an imbalance of water and fire and liver dysfunction,leading to excessive fire transformation.This theory provides a novel perspective for understanding the pathogenesis of perimenopausal insomnia.An in-depth exploration of the role of thief fire and child fire in perimenopausal insomnia is presented,along with a detailed discussion of corresponding treatment strategies.For the invasion of thief fire,therapeutic approaches include ascending and dispersing stagnant fire,clearing and moistening to remove interior heat,purging the heat accumulation to unblock the bowels,and subduing the fire and nourishing yin to eliminate depression.When child fire disturbs the spirit,treatment methods involve smoothing and relieving the liver qi to clear the stagnant heat,nourishing the true yin to restrain the yang,warming and nurturing the primordial qi and harmonizing the nutrient and defensive qi,and guiding and reducing the deficient heat to remove the floating fire.Clinical practice necessitates precise identification of thief and child fire,thorough investigation of exogenous pathogens and internal damage,and careful differentiation between deficiency and excess,as well as the superficial and internal aspects.Strict adherence to the treatment principle of"nourishing the child fire can drive out the thief fire,but driving out the thief fire should not harm the child fire"ensures a balanced approach.By harmonizing the yin and yang of the viscera and allowing the mind to be at ease,this strategy effectively alleviates perimenopausal insomnia.The application of these principles provides a practical and feasible theoretical foundation and practical guidance for the treatment of perimenopausal insomnia using traditional Chinese medicine.

The phrase"wood element characterized by spreading harmony"from the Huangdi Neijing five-phase theory summarizes the fundamental nature and functions of the wood element,emphasizing the crucial significance of the harmonious virtue of wood in promoting the generation and transformation of all things.In human physiology,"wood element characterized by spreading harmony"corresponds to the harmonious spreading of liver-gallbladder qi,ensuring smooth liver qi regulation and proper functioning of the ascending-descending movement mechanisms.Bipolar disorder,categorized in traditional Chinese medicine as"depression"or"manic depressive psychosis,"primarily arises from hepatic wood dysfunction.Insufficient wood qi dispersion typically manifests as a depressive phase,whereas excessive dispersion leads to a manic phase,with alternating manic-depressive phase indicating qi movement disorder.By integrating wood qi characteristics,disease pathogenesis of bipolar disorder,and our team's clinical experience in treating emotional disorders,this study developed an integrated acupuncture and moxibustion diagnosis and treatment approach for bipolar disorder,focusing on soothing the liver and regulating spirit,structured as"acupuncture-moxibustion-consolidation."Based on the physiological characteristics of"wood element characterized by spreading harmony,"from liver failing to controll conveyance and dispersion:depressive phase should apply warm-nourishing growth method,manic phase should suppress hyperactive liver for tranquillizing mind method,and alternating manic-depressive phase should apply harmonized rigidity-flexibility method.These methods aim to regulate the spirit of the heart and brain,harmonize the qi movement of the spleen and stomach,and replenish the essence and blood of the liver and kidney.Clinical application through syndrome differentiation has demonstrated satisfactory therapeutic outcomes.

Objective To investigate the changes in microglia phenotype after cerebral ischemia reperfusion(1R)injury and the effects of adenosine on nerve injury of cerebral IR injured rats.Methods Thirty-six healthy male Sprague Dawley rats were randomly divided into the sham operation(Sham)group,IR group,and adenosine pretreatment(AP)group,with 12 rats in each group.Before modeling,rats in the AP group were intraperitoneally injected with 2 mL of adenosine injection daily for 3 consecutive days,and rats in the Sham group and IR group were intraperitoneally injected with 2 mL of normal saline daily for 3 consecutive days.The middle cerebral artery occlusion models of rats in the IR group and AP group were constructed by using the suture-occluded method,and only the carotid artery of rats was isolated in the Sham group without ligation of blood vessels.At 2 hours after modeling,the neuroethology of rats in each group were evaluated according to a 5-point neurobehavioral scale.At 24 hours after restoring the blood perfusion in the middle cerebral artery,the rats in each group were executed,and their brain tissues were removed.The morphological changes of the brain tissues in the ischemic penumbra region were observed after hematoxylin-eosin(HE)staining.The co-expression of M1-type microglia markers and M2-type microglia markers was detected by immunofluorescence staining.The relative expression levels of pro-inflammatory factors inducible nitric oxide synthase(iNOS),tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)and interleukin(IL)-1β released by M1-type microglia,and anti-inflammatory factors IL-4,IL-10 and transforming growth factor-β(TGF-β)released by M2-type microglia were detected by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction(qRT-PCR).Results The neurobehavioral scores of rats in the IR group and AP group were significantly higher than those in the Sham group,and the neurobehavioral score of rats in the IR group was significantly higher than that in the AP group(P<0.05).HE staining results showed that the brain cells of rats in the Sham group were structurally complete and tightly arranged,with visible nuclei and no interstitial edema;the brain cells of rats in the IR group were structurally damaged and irregularly arranged,with loose cytoplasm and vacuoles in the cytosome;the structure of brain cells of rat in the AP group was better than that in the IR group,and there were many regularly-arranged normal cells,with complete nuclei.Immunofluorescence staining results showed that the number of M1-type and M2-type microglia in the ischemic penumbra region of rats in the IR group and AP group was significantly higher than that in the Sham group;the number of M1-type microglia in the IR group was significantly higher than that in the AP group,and the number of M2-type microglia was significantly lower than that in the AP group(P<0.05).qRT-PCR results showed that the relative expression levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines TNF-α,IL-1β,iNOS and anti-inflammatory cytokines IL-4,IL-10,TGF-β in the IR group and AP group were significantly higher than those in the Sham group(P<0.05);the relative expression levels of pro-inflammatory factors TNF-α,IL-1β and iNOS in the AP group were significantly lower than those in the IR group(P<0.05),while the relative expression levels of anti-inflammatory factors IL-4,IL-10 and TGF-β were significantly higher than those in the IR group(P<0.05).Conclusion AP can promote the polarization of microglia from M1 type to M2 type,inhibit the release of pro-inflammatory factors,increases the expression of anti-inflammatory factors,and thus has a neuroprotective effect on rats after cerebral IR injury.

Pulmonary fibrosis(PF)is a chronic progressive end-stage lung disease.However,the mechanisms un-derlying the progression of this disease remain elusive.Presently,clinically employed drugs are scarce for the treatment of PF.Hence,there is an urgent need for developing novel drugs to address such diseases.Our study found for the first time that a natural source of Prismatomeris connata Y.Z.Ruan(Huang Gen,HG)ethyl acetate extract(HG-2)had a significant anti-PF effect by inhibiting the expression of the transforming growth factor beta 1/suppressor of mothers against decapentaplegic(TGF-β1/Smad)pathway.Network pharmacological analysis suggested that HG-2 had effects on tyrosine kinase phosphorylation,cellular response to reactive oxygen species,and extracellular matrix(ECM)disassembly.Moreover,mass spec-trometry imaging(MSI)was used to visualize the heterogeneous distribution of endogenous metabolites in lung tissue and reveal the anti-PF metabolic mechanism of HG-2,which was related to arginine biosyn-thesis and alanine,asparate and glutamate metabolism,the downregulation of arachidonic acid meta-bolism,and the upregulation of glycerophospholipid metabolism.In conclusion,we elaborated on the relationship between metabolite distribution and the progression of PF,constructed the regulatory metabolic network of HG-2,and discovered the multi-target therapeutic effect of HG-2,which might be conducive to the development of new drugs for PF.
