Objective:
To investigate the trends in incidence and mortality of lung cancer in Huangpu District, Shanghai Municipality from 2002 to 2019, so as to provide the evidence for formulating lung cancer prevention and control measures.
Methods:
Data of lung cancer incidence and mortality among residents in Huangpu District from 2002 to 2019 were collected through the Shanghai Cancer Registration and Reporting Management System. The crude incidence and mortality of lung cancer was calculated, and standardized by the data from the Chinese Fifth National Population Census in 2000 (Chinese-standardized rate) and the Segi's world standard population in 1960 (world-standardized rate). The trends in incidence and mortality of lung cancer among residents by age and gender were evaluated using annual percent change (APC).
Results:
A total of 12 965 cases of lung cancer were reported in Huangpu District from 2002 to 2019, and the crude incidence rate was 80.66/105, the Chinese-standardized incidence rate was 34.54/105, and the world-standardized incidence rate was 31.30/105, all showing upward trends (APC=4.588%, 2.933% and 3.247%, all P<0.05). A total of 10 102 deaths of lung cancer were reported, and the crude mortality rate was 62.30/105, showing an upward trend (APC=0.959%, P<0.05); the Chinese-standardized mortality was 25.93/105, and the world-standardized mortality was 22.05/105, both showing downward trends (APC=-1.282% and -1.263%, both P<0.05). The crude incidence and mortality rates of lung cancer in males were higher than those in females (101.39/105 vs. 60.52/105, 85.45/105 vs. 39.87/105, both P<0.05). The crude incidence and mortality rates of lung cancer showed upward trends with age (both P<0.05), reaching their peaks in the age groups of 80-<85 years (341.37/105) and 85 years or above (355.97/105), respectively.
Conclusions
The incidence of lung cancer showed an upward trend, while the mortality showed a downward trend in Huangpu District from 2002 to 2019. Elderly men were the high-risk group for lung cancer incidence and mortality.

Objective:
To investigate the availability and use of child safety seats among children aged 0-3 years, so as to provide the basis for improving riding safety for children.
Methods:
Parents of children aged 0-3 years in Huangpu District, Shanghai Municipality, were recruited using the stratified multistage random sampling method from May to July 2024. Demographic information, family travel patterns, the use of child safety seat and related health beliefs were collected using questionnaire surveys. Factors affecting the use of child safety seats were identified using a multivariable logistic regression model.
Results:
Totally 514 valid questionnaires were recovered, with an effective rate of 96.98%. The respondents included 122 fathers (23.74%) and 392 mothers (76.26%), with a median age of 34.00 (interquartile range, 5.00) years. There were 446 families equipping with child safety seats, accounting for 86.77%; and 169 families using child safety seats, accounting for 32.88%. Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that the parents who had children aged >1-2 years (OR=0.597, 95%CI: 0.366-0.973), travelled 2-4 times per month (OR=0.359, 95%CI: 0.213-0.607) or once per month or less (OR=0.384, 95%CI: 0.202-0.729), and scored high in perceived barrier (OR=0.634, 95%CI: 0.486-0.827) were less likely to use child safety seats; the parents who had children with local household registration (OR=2.506, 95%CI: 1.356-4.633), travelled 5-<10 km (OR=1.887, 95%CI: 1.148-3.101) or ≥10 km (OR=2.319, 95%CI: 1.355-3.967), always wore seat belts (OR=2.342, 95%CI: 1.212-4.524), scored high in perceived susceptibility (OR=1.392, 95%CI: 1.091-1.778) and self-efficacy (OR=1.413, 95%CI: 1.156-1.727) were more likely to use child safety seats.
Conclusions
Equipping family cars with child safety seats and using them can prevent and reduce traffic injuries among children aged 0-3 years. It is recommended to strengthen publicity to promote the use of child safety seats.

China Pharmacy 2024;35(3):296-303
OBJECTIVE To investigate the effect of berberine on ferroptosis in MG63 osteosarcoma cells and its mechanism. METHODS Using cells without drug treatment as control, the cell viability, proliferation, the related indexes of ferroptosis [nuclear proliferation associated-antigen (Ki67), mitochondrial ultrastructure, ferric ion (Fe2+), reactive oxygen species (ROS), malondialdehyde (MDA), and glutathione (GSH)], the protein expression of signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3), tumor protein 53 (p53), and solute carrier family 7 member 11 (SLC7A11) were detected after being treated with different concentrations of berberine. Cells were transfected with p53 siRNA and then assigned to the control group, p53 siRNA group, berberine group, and p53 siRNA+berberine group to explore the role of p53 in berberine-induced ferroptosis. After 24 h incubation with 10.0 μmol/L berberine, the protein expressions of p53 and SLC7A11, the levels of mitochondrial membrane potential, GSH, and MDA content were determined. Cells were transfected with STAT3 overexpressed plasmid and then assigned to the control group, berberine group, STAT3 group, and STAT3+berberine group to explore the effect of STAT3 on the regulation of the p53/SLC7A11 pathway. After 24 h incubation with 10 μmol/L berberine, the protein expressions of p-STAT3, STAT3, p53, and SLC7A11 were detected. RESULTS Compared with the control cell, the concentrations of 2.5, 5.0 and 10.0 μmol/L berberine could reduce the cell viability and expression of Ki67, and induce the morphological changes in ferroptosis-related mitochondria, increase the levels of Fe2+, ROS and MDA, and the protein expression of p53, reduce the level of GSH, the binding activity of STAT3 with DNA, and the protein expressions of p-STAT3 and SLC7A11; the above differences were statistically significant (P< 0.05 or P<0.01). Compared with the berberine group,significantly down-regulated p53 protein expression and MDA level, up-regulated SLC7A11 protein expression, and increased mitochondrial membrane potential and GSH level were observed in the p53 siRNA+berberine group (P<0.01). Compared with the berberine group, the protein expressions of p-STAT3, STAT3, and SLC7A11 in the STAT3+berberine group were significantly increased (P<0.01), while the protein expression of p53 was significantly decreased (P<0.01). CONCLUSIONS Berberine can induce the ferroptosis of MG63 cells by mediating STAT3/p53/SLC7A11 signaling pathway.

BACKGROUND:For dislocation of acromioclavicular joint induced by coracoclavicular ligament fracture,single EndoButton Plate reconstruction and double EndoButton Plates reconstruction are common repair methods.Further study on the stress distribution and fracture risk of the two repair methods is of great significance. OBJECTIVE:To study the biomechanical properties of the coracoclavicular ligament,and compare the fixation effect,stress distribution and failure mode of single and double EndoButton Plates reconstruction. METHODS:(1)Finite element simulation analysis:Mimics,Wrap and SolidWorks were used to establish normal coracoclavicular ligament,single EndoButton Plate reconstruction and double EndoButton Plates reconstruction.Ansys software was used to analyze the stress and deformation of the scapula and clavicle of each model under vertical load.(2)Sample experiment:Fifteen intact scapular-clavicle specimens were randomly grouped into five groups,with three specimens in each group.In group A,the acromioclavicular ligament was severed and the coracoclavicular ligament remained intact.In group B,acromioclavicular ligaments and trapeoid ligaments were severed,leaving intact conical ligaments.In group C,acromioclavicular ligaments and conical ligaments were cut off,and the intact traprex ligaments were retained.In group D,acromioclavicular and coracoclavicular ligaments were severed,and coracoclavicular ligaments were repaired by single EndoButton Plate reconstruction.In group E,acromioclavicular and coracoclavicular ligaments were severed,and the coracoclavicular ligaments were repaired by double EndoButton Plates reconstruction.The mechanical experiment was carried out by a mechanical testing machine to analyze the biomechanical status,stress distribution and failure patterns of the scapular-clavicle and clavicle. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Finite element simulation analysis:The average stress of coracoclavicular ligament attached specimens was the lowest,and the risk of coracoclavicular fracture was less than that of single and double EndoButton Plates reconstruction.The mean stress of the coracoid process was similar in single and double EndoButton Plates reconstruction,and the fracture risk was similar.(2)Sample experiment:In groups A,B,C,D and E,the stiffness of specimens was(26.4±3.5),(19.8±2.8),(21.3±3.2),(57.7±4.1),and(46.2±2.8)N/mm,respectively;the ultimate loads were(545.5±53.7),(360.1±42.1),(250.9±44.4),(643.5±39.1),and(511.9±31.7)N,respectively;global stiffness in groups D and E was higher than that in group A(P=0.000 06,0.000 3);ultimate load in group D was higher than that in group A(P<0.05);the ultimate load was not significantly different between the group E and group A(P>0.05).Ligament fracture was observed in groups A,B and C and coracoid process fracture was found in groups D and E.(3)These results suggest that from the biomechanical analysis,Single EndoButton Plate reconstruction and double EndoButton Plates reconstruction are effective treatment techniques for coracoclavicular ligament fracture in acromioclavicular joint dislocation,but increase the risk of fracture.The double EndoButton Plates reconstruction dispersed the stress of the steel plate and reduced the contact force between the steel plate and bone,but slightly reduced the ultimate bearing capacity.Single and double EndoButton Plates reconstruction should be selected according to the actual clinical situation.

China Pharmacy 2024;35(1):44-50
OBJECTIVE To study the mechanism of oxymatrine inducing apoptosis of osteosarcoma MG63 cell line based on mitophagy mediated by cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2)/PTEN-induced putative kinase-1 (PINK1)/Parkinson disease protein-2 (Parkin) signaling pathway. METHODS MG63 cells were treated with 2.0, 4.0, 8.0 mg/mL oxymatrine and 6 μmol/L 5-fluorouracil, then the apoptotic rate, the expression of apoptosis-related proteins [B-cell lymphoma-2 (Bcl-2), Bcl-2 related X protein (Bax)], the proportion of decrease in mitochondrial membrane potential, the level of mitophagy as well as the protein expressions of PINK1, Parkin, and microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain-3Ⅱ (LC3-Ⅱ) were detected. PINK1 small interfering RNA (siRNA) was adopted to intervene in the expression of PINK1, the cells were divided into control group, PINK1 siRNA group, oxymatrine group, and PINK1 siRNA+oxymatrine group; the protein expressions of PINK1, Parkin, and LC3-Ⅱ, the proportion of decrease in mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) as well as apoptotic rate were detected. The lentivirus infection technique was used to overexpress COX-2, the cells were divided into control group, oxymatrine group, COX-2 group, and COX-2+oxymatrine group. The protein expressions of COX-2, PINK1, and Parkin, as well as the proportion of decrease in MMP were detected. RESULTS After being treated with oxymatrine, the apoptotic rate, the protein expressions of Bax, PINK1, Parkin, and LC3-Ⅱ, the level of mitophagy as well as the proportion of decrease in MMP were significantly increased (P<0.05), while the protein expression of Bcl-2 was significantly decreased (P<0.05). Compared with the oxymatrine group, the protein expressions of PINK1, Parkin, and LC3-Ⅱ, apoptotic rate and the proportion of decrease in MMP were significantly decreased in PINK1 siRNA+oxymatrine group (P<0.05). Compared with the oxymatrine group, the protein expression of COX-2 in the COX-2+oxymatrine group was increased significantly (P<0.05), while the protein expressions of PINK1 and Parkin as well as the proportion of 526087266@qq.com decrease in MMP were decreased significantly (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS Oxymatrine can mediate the overactivity of mitophagy based on the PINK1/Parkin signaling pathway by inhibiting COX-2 expression, thus promoting the apoptosis of the MG63 osteosarcoma cell line.

Objective:
To examine the Longitudinal influence of perceived discrimination on pro social behavior of left alone junior middle school students and to explore the longitudinal mediating role of teacher-student relationship and classmate relationship, so as to provide a reference for improving pro social behavior of left behind junior middle school students.
Methods:
The Perceived Discrimination Questionnaire, Teacher-Student Relationship Questionnaire, Classmate Relationship Questionnaire and Prosocial Behavior Questionnaire were used to conduct two follow up surveys on 930 left behind junior middle school students in Guizhou Province at two time points, in mid November 2021(T1) and mid May 2022(T2). Deviation corrected Bootstrap method was used to examine the mediating effect of T2 teacher-student relationship and T2 classmate relationship on the impact of T1 discrimination perception on T2 pro social behavior.
Results:
The perceptions of discrimination, teacher-student relationship, classmate relationship, and pro social behavior scores of the left behind junior high school students were (1.98±0.94) (4.13± 0.77 ) (3.54±0.91) (3.52±0.75) for T1, and (3.98±0.83)(3.42±0.86)(3.48±0.72) for teacher-student relationship, classmate relationships and pro social behavior scrores of T2. After controlling for gender, age and self assessment of family economic status, T1 perceived discrimination negatively predicted T2 pro social behavior ( β =-0.07); and T1 perceived discrimination indirectly influenced T2 pro social behavior through T2 teacher-student relationship, and mediated effect value was -0.02(95% CI = -0.02 to -0.01); and T1 perceived discrimination indirectly influenced T2 pro social behavior through T2 classmate relationship, mediated effect was -0.03(95% CI =-0.05 to -0.02)( P <0.05).
Conclusions
Perceived discrimination not only directly reduces pro social behavior of left behind junior middle school students, but also indirectly and negatively affects pro social behavior of left alone junior middle school students by reducing teacher-student relationship and classmate relationship.
