BackgroundNon-suicidal self-injury （NSSI） behaviors are common among adolescents with depressive disorders， and school bullying is recognized as a major risk factor. Previous research has shown that self-esteem and alexithymia are closely associated with both school bullying and NSSI. However， the mediating roles of self-esteem and alexithymia in the link between school bullying and NSSI are unclear. ObjectiveTo explore the mediating roles of alexithymia and self-esteem in the relationship between school bullying and NSSI behaviors in adolescents with depressive disorders， in order to inform intervention strategies targeting NSSI in this population. MethodsA total of 335 adolescents diagnosed with depressive disorders and treated at the First Psychiatric Hospital of Harbin from July 2023 to October 2024 were enrolled. Assessments included a self-developed demographic questionnaire， Adolescent Non-suicidal Self-injury Assessment Questionnaire-Behavior （ANSAQ-B）， Delaware Bullying Victimization Scale-Student （DBVS-S）， Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale （RSES）， and 26-item Toronto Alexithymia Scale （TAS-26）. Pearson correlation analysis was used to examine the relationship among variables. Controlling for gender and age at onset of depressive symptoms， mediation analysis was performed using the “mediation” package in R 4.4.2. ResultsScores on DBVS-S and TAS-26 were positively correlated with ANSAQ-B score （r=0.408， 0.417， P<0.01）， while RSES scores were negatively correlated（r=-0.300， P<0.01）. Regression analysis showed that school bullying and alexithymia significantly positively predicted NSSI behaviors （B=0.212， 0.333， P<0.01）， while self-esteem negatively predicted NSSI behaviors （B=-0.368， P<0.01）. Alexithymia was found to mediate the relationship between school bullying and NSSI behaviors， with an indirect effect of 0.040 （95% CI： 0.018~0.069） ，account for 17.17% of the total effect. The indirect effect through self-esteem was not statistically significant （95% CI： -0.004~0.069）. ConclusionExposure to school bullying and high levels of alexithymia are important predictors of NSSI behavior in adolescents with depressive disorders， and school bullying may indirectly influence NSSI behavior through alexithymia. ［Funded by Scientific Research Project of Health Commition of Heilongjiang Province，（number， 20230303090154］

ObjectiveTo investigate the prevalence of polycystic ovary syndrome （PCOS） among female college students at a university in Fuzhou City， Jiangxi Province， and to facilitate early detection and intervention of PCOS. MethodsUsing a stratified sampling method， a total of 450 female freshmen were randomly selected for PCOS screening. A self-designed questionnaire was used for data collection， covering menstrual status， high androgen signs， lifestyle， dietary habits， and awareness of PCOS. Sample t test and χ² test were used to compare the basic information and dietary habits between PCOS and non-PCOS cases. The correlation between various indicators and the prevalence of PCOS was analyzed by a logistic regression model. ResultsA total of 12 PCOS cases were identified， with a prevalence rate of 2.99%. PCOS cases exhibited statistically significant differences compared to non-PCOS cases in terms of waist-to-hip ratio， waist circumference， abdominal obesity， the proportion of overweight or obese individuals， and a preference for sweet food （all P<0.05）. Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed a significant correlation between preference for sweet food and the occurrence of PCOS （OR=4.858， 95%CI=1.199‒19.675，P=0.027）， as well as a significant correlation with PCOS accompanied by abdominal obesity （OR=7.083， 95%CI=0.773‒64.937， P=0.048）. Among the female college students surveyed， 37.90% had never heard of PCOS， 51.62% were only familiar with the name of the disease， and 10.47% had attempted to search for PCOS-related information. ConclusionThe prevalence of PCOS among female college students should not be overlooked and unhealthy dietary habits may be a crucial factor contributing to the occurrence of PCOS during this period. Early screening for PCOS during puberty is crucial.

ObjectiveTo establish the Shanghai twin birth cohort （STBC） and analyze the effects of genetic factors， shared environment， and non-shared environment interactions on birth health and growth and development of newborns. MethodsBased on the population-wide birth cohort in Shanghai， a comprehensive survey was conducted on the families with double and multiple babies born after January 1， 2015 to collect information on birth health， growth and development， and the family environment of the babies. ResultsBy December 31， 2021， a total of 7 195 pairs （14 405 cases） of twins were successfully included in the STBC survey. The average birth length of twins was 47.2 cm and average birth weight was 2 465.3 g. Heterozygous twins accounted for 69.05% and preterm babies accounted for 57.07%. The average age of the mothers of twins was 31.82 years， and the average age of the fathers was 33.87 years， with more than 80% of the parents having a college degree or above. 44.50% of the mothers used assisted reproductive technologies， 7.40% had illnesses during pregnancy， and 15.90% were exposed to passive smoking during pregnancy. During the survey period， the average monthly increase in the length of the twin infants was 2.09 cm， and the average monthly weight gain was 0.53 kg. ConclusionThe incidence of adverse outcomes such as maternal cesarean section rate， preterm birth， and low birth weight is higher in the twin birth population. Information on birth health as well as growth and development in childhood and adolescence in the twin birth population is collected based on STBC， which can provide a solid data foundation for studying children’s chronic non-communicable diseases， psychological and behavioral disorders and other complex health problems caused by the combined effects of genetics and the environment.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy of Yiqi Yangyin Jiedu Decoction in the treatment of patients with pulmonary nodules and qi-yin deficiency syndrome after early lung cancer surgery.Methods:Randomized controlled trial was conducted. A total of 76 patients with lung nodules and qi-yin deficiency syndrome after early lung cancer surgery at the Oncology Department of Longhua Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai University of Traditional Chinese Medicine from March to September 2020 were selected and randomly divided into two groups using a random number table method, with 38 cases in each group. The control group received symptomatic treatment, while the treatment group took Yiqi Yangyin Jiedu Decoction from the first day after enrollment. Both groups were treated for 6 months and followed up for 2 years. TCM syndrome scores before and after treatment were evaluated; the patients' activity status was evaluated using the Eastern Oncology Collaborative Group Activity Status (ECOG PS) score in the United States, and electrochemiluminescence was used to detect carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and neuron specific enolase (NSE). Flow cytometry was used to detect the percentage of T lymphocyte subsets CD3 +and CD4 +, and ELISA was used to detect TGF-β Horizontal. The patients' weight was recorded and their weight changes after treatment were observed. Adverse reactions during treatment were observed and recorded, the efficacy of TCM syndromes and pulmonary nodules was evaluated. Results:During the observation period, one case was lost to follow-up in the treatment group and three cases were lost to follow-up in the control group. Finally, 37 cases in the treatment group and 35 cases in the control group completed the observation. After the treatment, the panting (0.27±0.07 vs. 0.68±0.12, t=17.66), spontaneous sweating and night sweating (0.16±0.16 vs. 0.79±0.16, t=16.55) score of the treatment group were lower than those in the control group ( P<0.01); insomnia (0.15±0.08 vs. 0.54±0.13, t=15.52) score of the control group was lower than that of the treatment group ( P<0.01). The effective rate of TCM syndrome in treatment group was 81.08% (30/37), higher than 54.29% (19/35) in control group ( Z=-2.00, P=0.040). After the treatment, the ECOG PS score stability rate in the treatment group was 89.19% (33/37), higher than 82.86% (29/35) in control group, without statistical significance ( χ2=0.19, P>0.05). The increase and stable rate of body weight was 88.10% (32/37) in treatment group and 62.86% (22/35) in control group ( χ2=5.36, P<0.05). After 2-year follow-up, the control rate of pulmonary nodules in the treatment group was 91.89% (34/37), while in the control group it was 65.71% (23/35). The difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( χ2=7.47, P<0.01). After the treatment, the level of NSE [(12.54±2.52)ng/L vs. (13.85±2.71)ng/L, t=-2.12], TGF-β [(218.38±102.63)ng/L vs. (301.24±193.69)ng/L, t=-2.29] in treatment group were lower than those in the control group ( P<0.05), and the level of CD3 +T cells [(70.60±7.90)% vs. (65.99±9.27)%, t=2.32] in treatment group was higher than that of the control group ( P<0.05). Conclusion:Yiqi Yangyin Jiedu Decoction can delay the development of pulmonary nodules in patients after early lung cancer surgery, increasing the body weight of patients, relieving the TCM syndromes and improve the immune function of patients, with the potential to prevent and treat the occurrence and development of early lung cancer.

Objective To investigate the family aggregation of human hookworm infections in Sichuan Province and to identify its influencing factors, so as to provide insights into management of hookworm infections. Methods Three to four counties (districts) were sampled from basins, hilly regions and mountainous regions around the basins in Sichuan Province from 2017 to 2022 as fixed survey sites, and 17 to 30 counties (districts) were selected as mobile survey sites. At least 1 000 permanent residents at ages of 3 years and older were sampled from each survey site, and hookworm eggs were detected in human stool samples using the Kato-Katz technique. Subjects with 2 and more family members and at least 2 individuals diagnosed with hookworm infections in the county (district) where they lived were selected, and the familial aggregation of hookworm infections was analyzed using the test of goodness of fit for binomial distribution. In addition, the knowledge and practice of hookworm disease control were investigated among residents in Hejiang County and Wutongqiao District, Leshan City, Sichuan Province in 2021 and 2022, and the difference in the knowledge and practice of hookworm disease control was compared between members with and without familial aggregation of hookworm infections. Results A total of 66 812 residents from 25 196 households were sampled from main endemic areas of hookworm diseases in Sichuan Province from 2017 to 2022 for detection of hookworm infections, and 4 403 infections were identified (6.59% prevalence). The distribution of human hookworm infections in Sichuan Province did not fit the binomial distribution, and showed family aggregations (χ² = 2 116.759, P < 0.001). Family aggregation of human hookworm infections was found in endemic areas with 1% and higher prevalence of human hookworm infections (χ² = 136.006 to 428.738, all P values < 0.001), and family aggregation of human hookworm infections was identified in different years (χ² = 87.615 to 471.838, all P values < 0.001) and in different terrains of endemic areas (χ² = 8.423 to 1 144.176, all P values < 0.001). The members with hookworm infections had median eggs per gram of 180 (interquartile range, 780) in aggregated families and 72 (102) in non-aggregated families (Z = −2.686, P < 0.05). The proportion of members in families with aggregation of hookworm infections who knew the preventive measures of hookworm disease was significantly lower than in non-aggregated families (24.49% vs. 51.72%; χ² = 10.262, P < 0.05), and the proportion of members in families with aggregation of hookworm infections who often worked barefoot on the ground was significantly higher than in non-aggregated families (30.61% vs. 13.25%; χ² = 6.289, P < 0.05). Conclusions There is a familial aggregation of human hookworm infections in Sichuan Province, and awareness of preventive measures for hookworm disease and frequent working barefoot on the ground are associated with familial aggregation of hookworm infections.

Background Di(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) is the highest consumed and the most widely used phthalic acid ester, their effects on lipid metabolism have attracted the attention of many scholars. However, the associated mechanism is still unclear. Objective To observe the effect of DEHP on lipid metabolism in rats, probe its possible mechanism, and provide a research basis for the effect of DEHP on human lipid metabolism. Methods Forty healthy male SD rats were randomly divided into 4 groups: solvent control (0 mg·kg⁻¹ DEHP), low DEHP (187 mg·kg⁻¹), medium DEHP (375 mg·kg⁻¹), and high DEHP (750 mg·kg⁻¹) groups. DEHP was administered by oral gavage for 6 d per week, consecutively 8 weeks. The rats were weighed once a week during the exposure period. At 24 h after the last exposure, the rats were anesthetized with 20% urethane and sacrificed by apical puncture. Rat livers were harvested and weighed before hematoxylin-eosin (HE) histopathological observation. Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) was used to detect the mRNA levels of lipid metabolism-related genes Janus kinase 3 (JAK3), signal transducer and activator of transcription 5b (STAT5b), and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPARγ) in liver, and Western blot was used to detect the expression levels of lipid metabolism-related proteins JAK3, STAT5b, and PPARγ in liver. Results Compared with the control group, there was no significant difference in the body weight gain of the rats in each group (P>0.05). The liver organ coefficients of the DEHP exposure groups were higher than that of the control group (P<0.001), and increased with higher DEHP dosages. The level of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) in serum decreased in all DEHP exposure groups (P<0.05), and the level of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) in serum increased in the high DEHP group (P<0.05). The results of liver histopathological morphology showed that the hepatocytes of each DEHP group were enlarged and edematous in varying degrees, with loose stroma and irregular arrangement of cells, which were manifested as inflammatory cell infiltration and fatty degeneration of liver cells. Compared to the control group, the mRNA levels of JAK3, STAT5b, and PPARγ in liver tissues of rats in each DEHP group decreased (P<0.001). Compared to the control group, the relative expression levels of JAK3 in each DEHP group decreased (P<0.05), and the relative expression levels of STAT5b and PPARγ in the medium and high DEHP groups decreased (P<0.05). Conclusion DEHP exposure can induce abnormal lipid metabolism in rats, and the mechanism may be related to DEHP inhibiting the activation of JAK3/STAT5b/PPARγ signaling pathway.

Objective To evaluate the predictive value of global longitudinal strain(GLS)measured by cardiac magnetic resonance(CMR)feature-tracking technique for left ventricular remodeling(LVR)after percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI)in patients with acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction(STEMI).Methods A total of 403 patients undergoing PCI for acute STEMI were prospectively recruited from multiple centers in China.CMR examinations were performed one week(7±2 days)and 6 months after myocardial infarction to obtain GLS,global radial strain(GRS),global circumferential strain(GCS),ejection fraction(LVEF)and infarct size(IS).The primary endpoint was LVR,defined as an increase of left ventricle end-diastolic volume by≥20%or an increase of left ventricle end-systolic volume by≥15%from the baseline determined by CMR at 6 months.Logistic regression analysis was performed to evaluate the predictive value of CMR parameters for LVR.Results LVR occurred in 101 of the patients at 6 months after myocardial infarction.Compared with those without LVR(n=302),the patients in LVR group exhibited significantly higher GLS and GCS(P<0.001)and lower GRS and LVEF(P<0.001).Logistic regression analysis indicated that both GLS(OR=1.387,95%CI:1.223-1.573;P<0.001)and LVEF(OR=0.951,95%CI:0.914-0.990;P=0.015)were independent predictors of LVR.ROC curve analysis showed that at the optimal cutoff value of-10.6%,GLS had a sensitivity of 74.3%and a specificity of 71.9%for predicting LVR.The AUC of GLS was similar to that of LVEF for predicting LVR(P=0.146),but was significantly greater than those of other parameters such as GCS,GRS and IS(P<0.05);the AUC of LVEF did not differ significantly from those of the other parameters(P>0.05).Conclusion In patients receiving PCI for STEMI,GLS measured by CMR is a significant predictor of LVR occurrence with better performance than GRS,GCS,IS and LVEF.

hippocampus and HT22 cells of hypoxia pre-acclimated(HPC)mice and their relationship with neuroprotection.Methods(1)Thirty-six male Institute of Cancer Research(ICR)mice were randomly divided into three groups according to the random number table method of complete randomization:the control group,the hypoxia group and the hypoxia preconditioning group,with 12mice in each group.Mice in the control group were not exposed to hypoxia,mice in the hypoxia group were exposed to hypoxia once,and mice in the hypoxia preconditioning group were exposed to hypoxia four times.Immediately after the end of hypoxia treatment,all mice were decapitated and killed and hippocampal tissues were isolated and preserved in groups.(2)HT22 cells were cultured in medium containing 10％foetal bovine serum and 100 U/ml penicillin-streptomycin.When cell confluence was greater than 90％,they were transferred to 24-well plates for culture and then processed in 2 batches.6 pmol disordered small interfering RNA(siRNA),MALAT1 siRNA(siMALAT1),NEAT1 siRNA(siNEAT1),siMALAT1+siNEAT1 were transfected into the negative control group,siMALAT1 group,siNEAT1 group,and siMALAT1+siNEAT1 group of the first batch of HT22 cells one by one by transfection reagent,and the blank group did not have any treatment;then they were cultured under normal conditions(5％CO2 and 95％air)for 48 h.In the second batch of HT22

protein:[1.87±0.46]vs.[0.93±0.02]),siMALAT1+siNEAT1 group(NR2BmRNA:[2.09±0.16]vs.[0.94±0.04],NR2B protein:[2.07±0.30]vs.[0.93±0.02])showed the relative NR2B mRNA and NR2B protein expression were increased(all P＜0.05).(3)Differences in relative expression of haematopoietin breakdown product(145/150 kDa)protein(F=12.43),haematopoietin breakdown product(120 kDa)protein(F=7.15),and activated cysteamine protease protein 3 protein(F=6.61)were statistically significant in the 6 groups of HT22 cells transfected and treated with OGD/R(all P＜0.05).Compared with the siMALAT1 group,the siMALAT1+OGD/R group had 145/150kDa([1.42±0.48]vs.[0.85±0.34]),120 kDa([1.33±0.37]vs.[0.52±0.19])haematopoietin catabolism products and activated cysteamine protease protein 3([2.43±0.35]vs.[1.15±0.24])relative expression increased(all P＜0.05);compared with the negative control+OGD/R group,the siMALAT1+OGD/R group showed an increase in 145/150kDa([1.42±0.48]vs.[1.23±0.17]),120 kDa([1.33±0.37]vs.[0.80±0.21])relative expression of haematopoietin breakdown products and activated cysteamine protease protein 3([2.43±0.35]vs.[1.46±0.39])increased(all P＜0.05);compared with the siNEAT1 group,the siNEAT1+OGD/R group had a higher expression of 145/150 kDa([1.28±0.44]vs.[0.87±0.32]),120 kDa([0.81±0.36]vs.[0.63±0.16])relative expression of haematopoietic proteolytic products and activated cysteamine protease protein 3([1.51±0.45]vs.[1.01±0.27])increased(all P＜0.05).(4)The difference in HT22 cell survival rate among the 6 groups was statistically significant(F=5.54,P＜0.05).Compared with the negative control group,HT22 cell survival was decreased in the siMALAT1,siNEAT1,siMALAT1+OGD/R and siNEAT1+OGD/R groups([0.65±0.40],[0.76±0.35],[0.24±0.17],[0.23±0.16]vs.[0.84±0.04],all P＜0.05);cell viability was reduced in the siMALAT1+OGD/R group compared with the siMALAT1 group([0.24±0.17]vs.[0.65±0.40],P＜0.05);and cell viability was reduced in the siNEAT1+OGD/R group compared with the siNEAT1 group([0.23±0.16]vs.[0.76±0.35],P＜0.05).Conclusion HPC increased the expression of MALAT1 and NEAT1 in the hippocampus of mice,and MALAT1 and NEAT1 may participate in the neuroprotective effect of mice after ischemia and hypoxia by affecting the expression of NR2B.
