The discussion on the connotation of children’s subjectivity is not only a response to the lack of children’s subjectivity at the current stage of health management, but also a reference for children’s medical science popularization. Based on the perspective of social critical theory, this study used empirical research methods to review the "Dream Medical College" project of Children’s Hospital of Fudan University. The current situation and influencing factors of health management experience of 1 520 children participating in the "Dream Medical College" project were analyzed. The study showed that 96.35% of 1 316 subjects had diagnosis and treatment experience in specialized hospitals, and the overall negative emotional performance was at a low level (0~12 points). There was significant correlation between diagnosis and treatment, invasive experience and children’s emotional performance (P<0.05). The study revealed that the diagnosis and treatment field is the main practice place of children’s health management, while the subjective of children with different diagnosis and experience perform significantly different. Children over 4 years old have better language anxiety than physical anxiety when receiving diagnosis and treatment. Although medical science popularization is an important practical form of children’s health management, it lacks the science popularization content of invasive diagnosis and treatment and emotional management, and creative popular science form is more suitable for children with long-term and frequent diagnosis and treatment experience.

OBJECTIVE:
To identify the protective effect of empagliflozin on ischemic brain injury and neurological dysfunction in mice, and further explore its potential mechanism.
METHODS:
Acute cerebral ischemia model was induced by the permanent middle cerebral artery occlusion surgery in C57BL/6J mice. Empagliflozin(10 and 30 mg·kg−1) was administered to mice one hour after the onset of occlusion. Brain infarct volume and neurological defect score were assayed 24 h after surgery. Mice were subjected to photo-thrombosis and further administered with empagliflozin 3, 10, 30 mg·kg−1 intragastricly for either 7 or 14 consecutive days. The grid-walking task and the cylinder task were performed daily to determine the sensory-motor function of the mice. Alternatively, the mice were treated with 10 mg·kg−1 empagliflozin simultaneously with 10% glucose(i.p.) for 7 consecutive days after the photo-thrombosis model to evaluate their motor sensory function. Immunofluorescence staining was used to detect the activation of microglia within the infarct area 7 d after the photo-thrombosis.
RESULTS:
One hour after permanent middle cerebral artery occlusion surgery, gavage of empagliflozin significantly increased the brain infarct volume and neurological dysfunction. While in photo-thrombosis surgery, treatment of empagliflozin(10 mg·kg−1) for consecutive 7 or 14 days significantly decreased the rate of false foot in grid-walking task and the assymetric index in cylinder task. At the dose of 30 mg·kg−1, however, empagliflozin even aggravated photo-thrombosis-induced neurological dysfunction, while the dose of 3 mg·kg−1 showed no effect. Unexpectedly, the protective effect of empagliflozin(10 mg·kg−1) could not be reversed by glucose treatment. The results of immunofluorescence showed that empagliflozin(10 mg·kg−1) significantly alleviated the microglia activation in the ischemic area after the photo-thrombosis operation.
CONCLUSION
Empagliflozin cannot protect against acute ischemia-induced brain injury in mice. Empagliflozin alleviated ischemia-induced neurological dysfunction with consecutive administration in a dose-related manner. Empagliflozin-conferred neuroprotection may not be attributable to its effects on lowing blood glucose. Alternatively, empagliflozin may play a neuroprotective effect by inhibiting the excessive activation of microglia in ischemic brains.

ObjectiveFrom the perspective of energy metabolism, the mechanism of Osteoking (OK) in the treatment of myofascial pain syndrome (MPS) was revealed through systems biology prediction combined with holistic animal experimental validation methods. MethodFirstly, the key targets of MPS and their related molecular mechanisms were predicted by the systems biology method, and the core network targets were screened. Then, the network-predicted targets were verified by animal experiments. Specifically, 60 SD rats were randomly divided into normal group, model group, low, medium, and high dose OK groups (0.66, 1.31, 2.63 mL·kg-1), and positive celecoxib group (21 mg·kg-1). The MPS model was established by beating combined with a centrifugal exercise method for eight weeks. Except for two days after modeling, the intervention of OK or celecoxib was performed. After the completion of the model, the drug was administered for two weeks. The histopathological changes of trigger point muscle tissue were observed by hematoxylin-eosin staining. The content/activity of Na-K-ATP enzyme (Na+-K+-ATPase), Ca2+ pump (Ca2+ATPase), Ca2+, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), glutathione (GSH), malondialal (MDA), superoxide dismutase (SOD), cyclic adenosine phosphate (cAMP), and protein kinase A (PKA) in serum and/or trigger point muscle tissue in MPS rats was detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Protein expression levels of PKA and the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ coactivator 1α (PGC1α) in MPS rats were detected by immunohistochemistry. The protein expression levels of PKA, PGC1α, and mitochondrial transcription factor A (TFAM) in MPS rats were detected by Western blot. ResultThe network prediction results suggest that OK acts on the key target of energy metabolism related to the occurrence and development of MPS and may participate in the activation of the cAMP/PKA/PGC1α signaling pathway. The experimental validation results show that compared with the normal group, contracture nodules and disordered arrangement of muscle fibers appear in the trigger point muscle tissue of MPS rats. Na+-K+-ATPase, Ca2+ATPase, SOD activity, Ca2+, and GSH contents in serum and/or trigger point muscle tissue are significantly decreased (P<0.01). Both LDH activity and MDA contents are significantly increased (P<0.01), and the protein expression levels of cAMP, PKA, PGC1α, and TFAM are significantly decreased (P<0.01). Compared with the model group, OK improves the histopathological morphology of trigger point muscle fibers in MPS rats, and after the intervention of OK, Na+-K+-ATPase, Ca2+ATPase, SOD activity, Ca2+, and GSH contents in serum and/or trigger point muscle tissue in MPS rats are significantly increased (P<0.05, P<0.01). LDH activity and MDA contents are significantly reduced (P<0.05, P<0.01). The protein expression levels of cAMP, PKA, PGC1α, and TFAM are significantly increased (P<0.05, P<0.01). ConclusionThe mechanism of OK's intervention in MPS rats may be related to its effective activation of the cAMP/PKA/PGC1α signaling pathway, thus promoting mitochondrial energy metabolism and trigger point muscle fiber damage repair in muscle cells.

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a common malignant tumor and patients with HCC often have liver cirrhosis, with an extremely high 5-year recurrence rate and poor prognosis even after curative treatment. In recent years, sarcopenia has attracted more and more attention as a poor prognostic factor for various malignant tumors; however, there is still a lack of studies on the association between skeletal muscle index and prognosis of HCC in China. Evidence in foreign countries has shown that sarcopenia may be an a negative prognostic factor for HCC patients. This article reviews the etiology and possible pathogenesis of HCC-related sarcopenia and related intervention measures including nutritional supplementation, appropriate physical exercise, and medication, in order to provide a reference for related studies in China.
