Organophosphate flame retardants (OPFRs) have been widely used as the main alternatives to bromine-based flame retardants, resulting in their widespread detection in environmental media and even in human blood. The potential health risks arising therefrom, particularly the direct impacts on the blood system, have become a focus in the field of environmental health. This article systematically reviewed the latest research progress on the hematotoxicity of OPFRs, covering three core aspects: the toxic effects aspect, which systematically elaborated on the bidirectional interference of OPFRs with coagulation function, their toxic effects on the hematopoietic system, and their disruptive effects on blood biochemical metabolism; the mechanistic analysis aspect, which dissected the multi-pathway, multi-target toxic mechanism network of OPFRs, including common pathways based on oxidative stress and inflammatory responses, the direct and indirect regulation of coagulation function mediated by nuclear receptors and endocrine disruption, and the disturbance of blood cell production at the source through disruption of the hematopoietic microenvironment; and the risk assessment aspect, which, in response to the limitations of traditional methods, focused on the application prospects and core advantages of novel approaches based on structure-activity relationships in filling data gaps and achieving precise risk prediction. This review aims to systematically summarize the research progress on the mechanisms of OPFR-induced hematotoxicity, providing systematic theoretical support for subsequent in-depth mechanistic studies, targeted epidemiological investigations, and the optimization of risk assessment models.

Objective: To explore the psychological connection between non-suicidal self injury (NSSI) behavior and childhood trauma among vocational college students, thereby informing the optimization of mental health services. Methods: From June to July 2025, 18 students with NSSI behavior and childhood trauma were recruited from two vocational colleges in Heze City for semi structured interviews. Data were analyzed using Colaizzi s seven step analysis method for coding and thematic extraction. Results: Four core themes and ten subthemes were identified. Childhood trauma drove NSSI behavior through four interrelated psychological pathways, containing a cognitive pathway for internalization of traumatic beliefs and self punishment, an emotional pathway for dysregulation of traumatic emotions and compensatory behaviors, a somatic behavioral pathway for somatization and reenactment of traumatic memories, and an interpersonal pathway for impaired trust and isolation based coping. These pathways intertwined and reinforced each other, forming a psychological network underlying NSSI behavior. Conclusions Childhood trauma serves as a core risk factor for NSSI, establishing NSSI behavior through "intertwined cognitive, emotional, somatic and interpersonal" pathways. Effective intervention should adopt an integrated approach incorporating cognitive restructuring, emotional regulation training, trauma recovery, and the social support reconstruction.

Objective To analyze the current quality of treatment for hospitalized cancer patients in Bei-jing,identify major issues in treatment practices,and propose improvements.Methods Nine hospitals in Beijing were selected for examination.Expert on-site interviews and medical record sampling were conducted.The"Bei-jing Cancer Diagnosis and Treatment Quality Control Checklist"was used to assess the hardware,management,anti-cancer drug therapy,radiation therapy,and surgical treatment during cancer treatment at these hospitals from January to October 2023.The relevant problems were analyzed.Results Among the nine hospitals,two(22.2％)were equipped with laminar flow rooms,and three(33.3％)had intravenous drug preparation centers.In terms of institutional management,seven hospitals(77.8％)had standardized anti-cancer drug prescription authority management,eight(88.9％)had complete emergency plans,and five(55.6％)had oncology specialist pharmacists.Regarding anti-cancer drug therapy,the areas with higher completion rates included pathology diag-nosis support(97.6％),routine pre-treatment examinations(96.3％),adverse reaction evaluation(92.7％),discharge summaries(95.1％),and admission records(91.5％).However,the accuracy of tumor staging before treatment(70.7％)and the evaluation of therapeutic efficacy after drug treatment(76.9％)needed improvement.The oncology specialty significantly outperformed the non-oncology specialty in terms of the accuracy rate of TNM staging(86.0％vs.46.9％,P＜0.001),the completeness of informed consent forms(100％vs.68.8％,P＜0.001),the completeness of drug indication evaluation(96.0％vs.78.1％,P=0.025),the completeness of admission medical history records(98.0％vs.81.3％,P=0.008),the rationality of drug dosage(96.0％vs.75.0％,P=0.005),the rationality of drug infusion time(100％vs.62.5％,P＜0.001),and the rationality of the order of drug infusion(100％vs.87.5％,P=0.010).Although the quality of radiation therapy was high,the subsequent evaluation of therapeutic efficacy(39.3％)requires enhancement.In surgical treatment,the preoper-ative pathology diagnosis support rate(78.1％)and the accuracy of tumor staging(37.5％)were relatively low,indicating issues with incomplete preoperative evaluation and the absence of multidisciplinary discussions.Conclusions There remains significant room for improvement in the quality of cancer treatment in China.It is recommended to standardize tumor staging assessment processes,strengthen entry assessments for non-oncology departments,promote the implementation of multidisciplinary treatment models,and establish a multi-department collaborative management model.Continuous monitoring of cancer diagnosis and treatment quality indicators is es-sential to promote ongoing improvements in cancer treatment quality.

Objective To Investigate the efficacy of modified electroconvulsive therapy(MECT)in patients with schizophrenia across different genders.Methods From May 2018 to August 2022,481 patients with schizophrenia were recruited from three psychiatric hospitals in Luzhou,Zigong,and Yibin.According to gender grouping,both groups received adjunctive MECT treatment for two consecutive weeks for a total of six treatments.The differences in positive and negative syndrome scale(PANSS)scores before and after treatment,UKU adverse reaction rating scale(UKU),and gastrointestinal symptom rating scale(GSRS)scores were compared between the two groups.Results After quality control,463 cases were followed up for analysis including 246 males and 217 females.Compared with pre-treatment,the total PANSS score and scores on each subscale were significantly reduced in both genders after treatment(P<0.001).When comparing the reduction rates between the groups,the male patients showed a higher reduction rate in negative symptoms than the female patients(31.24%±30.24%vs.25.80%±33.96%,P<0.05).However,there were no significant differences between the two groups in the reduction rates of the total score,positive symptoms,and general psychopathology(P>0.05).The comparison of adverse reactions showed that the frequency of other types of adverse reactions was higher in female patients than in male patients(47.47%vs.37.80%,P<0.05).However,no significant differences were observed in the adverse reactions related to the mental,neurological,autonomic nervous system,and gastrointestinal systems(P>0.05).Correlation analysis revealed that the reduction rate of the PANSS total score was positively correlated with smoking history(r=0.135,P=0.034)and alcohol history(r=0.160,P=0.012)in male patients,while the reduction rate of the PANSS total score was negatively correlated with the disease duration(r=-0.210,P=0.002)and positively correlated with the age of onset(r=0.145,P=0.032)in female patients.Conclusion MECT is significantly effective for both male and female patients with schizophrenia.Compared to female patients,MECT shows a more pronounced effect on negative symptoms in male patients.Additionally,the factors related to the efficacy of MECT differ between genders,indicating that it is necessary to consider the clinical characteristics of patients comprehensively when selecting an MECT treatment plan.

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are compounds with more than two benzene rings, widely exist in the environment, and can affect human health in various ways. Previous studies on the health effects of PAHs mainly focused on their carcinogenicity, teratogenicity, and effects on pulmonary diseases, cardiovascular diseases, etc. In recent years, increasing attention has been paid to the negative influence of PAHs to inflammatory skin diseases (especially psoriasis, atopic dermatitis, and lupus erythematosus). This review summarizes recent research advances in the role of PAHs in the occurrence and development of inflammatory skin diseases.

Objective Female fertility gradually decreases with the increase in women's age.The underlying reasons include the decline in the quantity and quality of oocytes.Oocyte aging is an important manifestation of the decline in oocyte quality,including in vivo oocyte aging before ovulation and in vitro oocyte aging after ovulation.Currently,few studies have been done to examine oocyte aging,and the relevant molecular mechanisms are not fully understood.Therefore,we used zebrafish as a model to investigate oocyte aging.Three different age ranges of female zebrafish were selected to mate with male zebrafish of the best breeding age.In this way,we studied the effects of maternal age-related oocyte aging on fertility and investigated the potential molecular mechanisms behind maternal age-related fertility decline.Methods Eight female zebrafish aged between 158 and 195 d were randomly selected for the 6-month age group(180±12)d,8 female zebrafish aged between 330 and 395 d were randomly selected for the 12-month age group(360±22)d,and 8 female zebrafish aged between 502 and 583 d were randomly selected for the 18-month age group(540±26)d.Male zebrafish of(180±29)d were randomly selected from zebrafish aged between 158 and 195 d and mated with female zebrafish in each group.Each mating experiment included 1 female zebrafish and 1 male zebrafish.Zebrafish embryos produced by the mating experiments were collected and counted.The embryos at 4 hours post-fertilization were observed under the microscope,the total number of embryos and the number of unfertilized embryos were counted,and the fertilization rate was calculated accordingly.The numbers of malformed embryos and dead embryos were counted 24 hours after fertilization,and the rates of embryo malformation and mortality were calculated accordingly.The primary outcome measure was the embryo fertilization rate,and the secondary outcome measures were the number of embryos per spawn(the total number of embryos laid within 1.5 hours after the beginning of mating and reproduction of the zebrafish),embryo mortality,and embryo malformation rate.The outcome measures of each group were compared.The blastocyst embryos of female zebrafish from each group born after mating with male zebrafish in their best breeding period were collected for transcriptomics analysis.Fresh oocytes of female zebrafish in each group were collected for transcriptomics analysis to explore the potential molecular mechanisms of maternal age-related fertility decline.Results Compared with that of the 6-month group(94.9%±3.6% ),the embryo fertilization rate of the 12-month group(92.3%±4.2% )showed no significant difference,but that of the 18-month group(86.8%±5.5% )decreased significantly(P<0.01).In addition,the fertilization rate in the 18-month group was significantly lower than that in the 12-month group(P<0.05).Compared with that of the 6-month group,the embryo mortality of the female zebrafish in the 12-month group and that in the 18-month group were significantly higher than that in the 6-month group(P<0.000 1,P<0.001).There was no significant difference in the number of embryos per spawn or in the embryo malformation rate among the three groups.The results of the transcriptomics analysis of blastocyst embryos showed that some genes,including dusp5,bdnf,ppip5k2,dgkg,aldh3a2a,acsl1a,hal,mao,etc,were differentially expressed in the 12-month group or the 18-month group compared with their expression levels in the 6-month group.According to the KEGG enrichment analysis,these differentially expressed genes(DEGs)were significantly enriched in the MAPK signaling pathway,the phosphatidylinositol signaling system,and the fatty acid degradation and histidine metabolism pathway(P<0.05).The analysis of the expression trends of the genes expressed differentially among the three groups(the 6-month group,the 12-month group,and the 18-month group in turn)showed that the gene expression trends of fancc,fancg,fancb,and telo2,which were involved in Fanconi anemia pathway,were statistically significant(P<0.05).In the results of oocyte transcriptomics analysis,the genes that were differentially expressed in the 12-month group or the 18-month group compared with the 6-month group were mainly enriched in cell adhesion molecules and the protein digestion and absorption pathway(P<0.05).The results of the trends of gene expression in the zebrafish oocytes of the three groups(the 6-month group,the 12-month group,and the 18-month group in turn)showed that three kinds of gene expression trends of declining fertility with growing maternal age had significant differences(P<0.05).Further analysis of the three significantly differential expression trends showed 51 DEGs related to mitochondria and 5 DEGs related to telomere maintenance and DNA repair,including tomm40,mpc2,nbn,tti1,etc.Conclusion With the increase in the maternal age of the zebrafish,the embryo fertilization rate decreased significantly and the embryo mortality increased significantly.In addition,with the increase in the maternal age of the zebrafish,the expression of mitochondria and telomere-related genes,such as tomm40,mpc2,nbn,and tti1,in female zebrafish oocytes decreased gradually.Maternal age may be a factor contributing to the decrease in oocyte fertilization ability and the increase in early embryo mortality.Maternal age-related oocyte aging affects the fertility and embryo development of the offspring.
