Objective:To develop and examine the reliability and validity of the adolescent health literacy evaluation scale under public health emergencies (AHLES-PHE) in junior middle school students.Methods:The initial version of AHLES-PHE was formed by combining the characteristics of public health emergencies and adolescent health literacy.The expert version of AHLES-PHE was formed by two rounds of Delphi expert consultation.Totally 1 729 adolescent students from three junior middle schools in Changzhou City were tested.The formal version of AHLES-PHE was formed through item analysis and factor analysis (structural validity). The content validity of the formal version of AHLES-PHE was evaluated by specialist analysis and sensibility analysis, and its correlation validity with the everyday health information literacy (EHIL) was tested.The internal consistency reliability, parity split-half coefficient and test-retest reliability were calculated.Results:(1)Item analysis: the correlation coefficient between the scores of each item and the total score of AHLES-PHE expert version was 0.420 to 0.722 ( P<0.01), and the CR of decision value was 10.140 to 66.980 ( P<0.01). (2)Validity analysis: the formal version of AHLES-PHE with 45 items and 8 factors was obtained by exploratory factor analysis.The 8 factors could explain 61.30% of the total variation.The fitting indexes of the confirmatory factor analysis model were χ2/ df=3.325, RMSEA=0.052, GFI=0.853, CFI=0.912, TLI=0.904, NFI=0.880.Sensibility analysis of the formal version of AHLES-PHE showed the Cronbach's α ranged from 0.957 to 0.958.The correlation coefficient between the total score of AHLES-PHE formal version and the total score of EHIL was 0.340 ( P<0.01). (3)Reliability analysis: the Cronbach's α coefficient and parity split-half coefficient of the formal version of AHLES-PHE were 0.958 and 0.975, respectively.The test-retest reliability of the formal version of AHLES-PHE was 0.753 ( P<0.01). Conclusion:The formal version of AHLES-PHE developed in this study has good reliability, structural validity and content validity, and the correlation validity with EHIL is common.This scale has a certain degree of applicability to the assessment of health literacy for junior middle school students under public health emergencies.

Tea green leafhopper(TGL),Empoasca onukii,is of biological and economic interest.Despite numerous studies,the mechanisms underlying its adaptation and evolution remain enig-matic.Here,we use previously untapped genome and population genetics approaches to examine how the pest adapted to different environmental variables and thus has expanded geographically.We complete a chromosome-level assembly and annotation of the E.onukii genome,showing nota-ble expansions of gene families associated with adaptation to chemoreception and detoxification.Genomic signals indicating balancing selection highlight metabolic pathways involved in adaptation to a wide range of tea varieties grown across ecologically diverse regions.Patterns of genetic vari-ations among 54 E.onukii samples unveil the population structure and evolutionary history across different tea-growing regions in China.Our results demonstrate that the genomic changes in key pathways,including those linked to metabolism,circadian rhythms,and immune system functions,may underlie the successful spread and adaptation of E.onukii.This work highlights the genetic and molecular basis underlying the evolutionary success of a species with broad economic impacts,and provides insights into insect adaptation to host plants,which will ultimately facilitate more sustain-able pest management.

Objective: To investigate the effects of Shenqi Yizhi Granules on PI3K/AKT signaling pathway in Aβ1-42 bilateral hippocampal injection of AD model rats. Methods: A rat model of AD was established by bilateral hippocampus injection of Aβ1-42. Shenqi Yizhi granules were used for 60 days. Morris water maze was used to detect the learning and memory function of each rat. HE staining was used to observe the pathological changes of rat hippocampal CA3 area. Immunohistochemistry was used to detect the expression of PI3K and AKT protein in hippocampus. The relative expression levels of PI3K mRNA and AKT mRNA were detected by RT-PCR. Results: Compared with the blank group, the escape latency of the model group was significantly prolonged, and the number of entering the platform, the time and percentage of crossing the platform quadrant decreased significantly (P < 0.05). At the same time, the vertebral cells in the hippocampal CA3 area were disordered and the neurons showed obvious lesions. PI3K/AKT showed significant inhibition at both protein and gene levels (P < 0.05). After intervention with Shenqi Yizhi Granule, the escape latency of the model rats was significantly shortened, and the number of entering the platform and the time of crossing the platform quadrant were significantly increased (P < 0.05). Conclusion: Shenqi Yizhi Granules can improve the cognitive function of Aβ1-42 bilateral hippocampus injection in AD rats, and its mechanism may be related to activation of PI3K/AKT signaling pathway in brain.

Objective Membranous nephropathy ( MN) is rarely complicated by crescents.This study was to observe the clinicopathologic characteristics of MN with crescents. Methods This retrospective study included 53 cases of biopsy-proven idiopathic MN with crescents in the absence of immunologic and clinical etiologic factors and another 100 MN patients without histological crescents as controls.The clinicopathologic features, treatment response, and out-comes were analyzed and compared between the two groups of pa-tients. Results Significantly higher percentages of hypertension and decreased eGFR were observed in the MN +crescents group than in the control (47.2%vs 19.0%, P<0.05;28.3%vs 40.%, P<0.05).Circulating autoantibodies against the M-type phospholipase A2 receptor (PLA2R) were found in 66.7%(30/45) of the patients.The glomeruli exhibited a median of 4.6%(1.8%-35.3%) involvement of crescents.Compared with the controls, the MN +crescents group showed remarkably higher rates of segmental glomer-ulosclerosis lesions (16.0%vs 49.1%, P<0.05), capillary loops necrosis (0.0%vs 11.3%, P<0.05), interstitial fibrosis/tubu-lar atrophy (IFTA) (54.0%vs 86.8%, P<0.05) and afferent arterial lesions (65.0%vs 92.5%, P<0.05).No significant differ-ences were found in the outcomes of the two groups of patients. Conclusion MN with crescents is rare, and secondary MN and cres-centic glomerulonephritis should be considered.Crescentic MN usually presents with hypertension and renal dysfunction clinically and high rates of severe segmental and global glomerulosclerosis, capillary loops necrosis, and IFTA histologically.The condition has a fa-vorable short-term prognosis.
