Objective: To explore the current status and influencing factors of eating behaviors in adolescents, so as to provide a theoretical foundation for health promotion education among adolescents. Methods: Based on the database from Survey of Chinese Family Health Index (2021), by a random number table method, 1 065 teenagers were selected from the provincial capitals of 22 provinces and 5 autonomous regions in China, as well as 4 municipalities directly under the central government. A general characteristic questionnaire, Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9), Short Form of the Family Health Scale (FHS-SF), 10-item Short Version of the Big Five Personality(BFP-10), Content-based Media Exposure Scale (CM-E) and Sakata Eating Behavior Scale Short Form(EBS-SF) were used to collect information. Multivariate stepwise linear regression analysis was employed to identify and analyze related factors of eating behaviors among adolescents. Receiver operating characteristic was used to validate the predictive ability of the EBS-SF score for overweight and obesity among adolescents. Results: The average scores of BFI-10,C-ME, FHS-SF, PHQ-9 and EBS-SF were (33.08±4.64)(19.20±4.55)(38.48±6.65)(6.09±5.63)(16.75±4.36), respectively. Multivariate linear regression showed that family type (other types), agreeableness, conscientiousness, family health and depression were the main related factors of EBS-SF scores among adolescents( B =2.61,-0.42,0.20,-0.11,0.23, P <0.05).The analysis of receiver operating characteristic curve showed that the EBS-SF scores had a good ability in predicting obesity among male adolescents ( AUC= 0.73, P <0.01). Conclusions Family type, big five personality, family health,depression are the related factors of eating behaviors among adolescents. EBS-SF scores are predictive of obesity in adolescents, which would provide a new perspective for promoting healthy eating habits among adolescents.

Objective:To investigate the value of 3D CT reconstruction in diagnosis of chronic lateral ankle instability (CLAI) combined with syndesmotic diastasis (SD).Methods:A retrospective study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 160 patients with CLAI who had been examined by arthroscopy from January 2018 to September 2022 at Department of Foot and Ankle Surgery, Wuhan Fourth Hospital. There were 64 males and 96 females with an age of (39.8±12.6) years. Eighty-one left and 79 right feet were affected; the time from injury to surgery was (27.3±11.6) months. The patients were divided into a widened interval group and a normal interval group according to the syndesmotic width measured, with 2 mm as a critical value. After preoperative 3D CT reconstruction, the differences in anterior tibiofibular distance, posterior tibiofibular distance, the narrowest tibiofibular distance, fibular translation, fibular rotation, and syndesmotic area (SA) were compared between the 2 groups. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed successively to identify the risk factors. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to identify the best predictive factor and critical value. According to the findings of previous research, the above analyses were repeated to determine the best predictive factor and critical value respectively in the sex subgroup, fibular morphology subgroup and incisura feature subgroup.Results:The binary logistic regression showed that SA was a risk factor for CLAI combined with SD ( OR=1.196, 95% CI: 1.122 to 1.275, P < 0.001). The ROC curve revealed an area under curve of 0.847 and the difference critical value of 22.06 mm 2 that indicated a sensitivity of 80.4% and a specificity of 78.9%, respectively. Subgroup analyses showed that SA was suitable for male and female patients and patients with different fibular morphologies and incisura features but the difference critical values were different. Conclusion:In 3D CT reconstruction, measurement of SA may help the diagnosis of CLAI combined with SD.

Objective:To explore the clinical efficacy of reconstructing the calcaneocuboid and calcaneonavicular ligaments with the autologous semitendinosus for chronic bifurcate ligament injury.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 12 patients with chronic bifurcate ligament injury who had been treated by anatomical reconstruction with the autologous semitendinosus from March 2018 to January 2021 at Department of Foot and Ankle Surgery, The Fourth Hospital of Wuhan. There were 4 males and 8 females with an age of (41.4±9.6) years. Seven left and 5 right feet were affected; the time from injury to surgery was (9.3±4.3) months. The surgical efficacy was evaluated based on anteroposterior and lateral imaging assessments of foot weight-bearing at 6 months postoperation, comparison of the visual analogue scale (VAS) pain scores for foot weight-bearing walking and the American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) midfoot scores between preoperation and the last follow-up, stress test for stability of the transverse tarsal joint, recovery of movement, and occurrence of complications.Results:All patients were followed up for (18.4±4.0) months. Their sports activities were completely resumed after postoperative (6.8±3.9) months. Primary wound healing was achieved in all patients. One patient suffered from cutaneous nerve lesion and skin numbness, the symptoms of which disappeared after conservative treatment. Double harmonic curves were observed on the anteroposterior and lateral imaging films of foot weight-bearing in all patients. The spaces in the calcaneocuboid and the calcaneonavicular joints were normal, the articular positions were matched, and the calcaneocuboid joint was stable without recurrence or worsening of displacement. The VAS decreased significantly from preoperative 6.5 (5.6, 7.0) to 0.0 (0.0, 1.0) at the last follow-up, and the AOFAS mid-foot score increased significantly from preoperative (55.6±8.8) points to (92.3±2.6) points at the last follow-up ( P<0.05). The stress test for the stability of the transverse tarsal joint showed joint stability. Conclusion:Reconstruction of the calcaneocuboid and calcaneonavicular ligaments using the autologous semitendinosus is an alternative treatment for patients with chronic bifurcate ligament injury, because it can restore the stability of the bifurcate ligament and obviously improve the foot and ankle functions with limited postoperative complications.

OBJECTIVE To study the pharmacokinetic characters of Baihe -zhimu decoction （BZD） and its single herbs . METHODS A liquid chromatography -tandem mass spectrometry method was developed to simultaneously determine the blood concentrations of 7 effective components （neomangiferin，mangiferin，regaloside A ，regaloside Ⅰ，timosaponin B Ⅱ，timosaponin E and timosaponin A Ⅲ）in rats after oral administration of BZD extract ，single herb extract of Lilium brownii and Anemarrhena asphodeloides. The pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated . RESULTS The linear range of 7 effective components as neomangiferin were 1-1 000，1-1 000，0.1-100，0.4-400，1-1 000，0.1-100 and 0.5-500 ng/mL（all r＞0.998），respectively. The accuracy of the method ranged from 87.50% to 115.00%，and the RSDs of intra -day and inter -day precision were 0.62%-14.35%. RSDs of matrix factor were 2.68%-14.03%，and deviation of stability were within ±15%. Compared with L. brownii and A. asphodeloides，AUC0－24h，AUC0－∞ and cmax of 7 effective components in BZD were increased significantly （P＜0.05），while CL z/Fof 6 effective components （except timosaponin B Ⅱ）decreased significantly （P＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS BZD can increase the absorption of effective ingredients in rats ，slow down their elimination and prolong their retention time ，indicating pharmacokinetic behaviors of effective components in BZD possess more advantages over those of single herbs .

Objective:To investigate the effects of methyltransferase-like protein 14 (METTL14)-mediated long-chain non-coding RNA EIF3J antisense RNA1 (Inc EIF3J-AS1) on the migration and invasion of cholangiocarcinoma cells and its mechanism.Methods:From September 2017 to December 2018, 10 pairs of cholangiocarcinoma and adjacent normal tissues were collected from the First Affiliated Hospital of Naval Medical University, which were surgically resected and pathologically confirmed. The expression of METTL14 mRNA and Inc EIF3J-AS1 in cholangiocarcinoma tissues was detected by fluorescence quantitative PCR, and the protein expression of METTL14 was detected by Western blotting. Cholangiocarcinoma cell lines HUCCTI and RBE were divided into control group and METTL14 or Inc EIF3J-AS1 knockdown group. The corresponding normal lentivirus was transfected in the control group, and METTL14 or Inc EIF3J-AS1 knockdown group was transfected with lentivirus that interfered with the expression of METTL14 or Inc EIF3J-AS1, respectively. Transwell assay was used to detect the ability of cell migration and invasion, and Western blotting was used to detect the expression of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and AKT protein.Results:The expressions of METTL14 mRNA and lnc EIF3J-AS1 in cholangiocarcinoma tissues were significantly higher than those in adjacent normal tissues (0.075±0.012 vs 0.031±0.006, 0.140±0.032 vs 0.064±0.012), and there was a positive correlation between expression of METTL4 mRNA and expression of lnc EIF3J-AS1 ( r=0.883, P=0.0007). The expression of METTL14 protein in cholangiocarcinoma tissues was higher than that in adjacent normal tissues (0.354±0.131 vs 0.187±0.183). Compared with the control group, the expression of lnc EIF3J-AS1 was significantly lower in METTL14 or Inc EIF3J-AS1 knockdown group (0.217±0.020 vs 1.000±0.052, 0.149±0.066 vs 1.000±0.045). The migration and invasion ability of cell lines HUCCTI and RBE decreased significantly in lnc EIF3J-AS1 knockout group (5.00±0.58 vs 23.33±0.33, 20.33±0.67 vs 70.67±0.33; 12.00±0.58 vs 25.00±2.52, 22.33±0.89 vs 43.67±0.33). The expression of EGFR and p-AKT/AKT protein were also significantly decreased (0.109±0.015 vs 1.000±0.018, 0.226±0.036 vs 1.000±0.051; 0.118±0.052 vs 1.000±0.069, 0.132±0.098 vs 1.000±0.023). The above differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05). Conclusions:Abnormal expression of lnc EIF3J-AS1 in cholangiocarcinoma mediated by METTL14 can promote tumor cell migration and invasion.

Clinical data and follow-up of a case of congenital disorder of glycosylation type Ia (CDG-Ia) combined with dilated cardiomyopathy admitted to the Department of Cardiology, Children′s Hospital of Nanjing Medical University were analyzed retrospectively.The 5-year-old female patient was admitted in December 2016 due to recu-rrent shortness of breath for 2 months.Clinical symptoms and signs included repeated attacks of shortness of breath, physical retardation, malnutrition, binocular esotropia, multiple episodes of hypoglycemia, hepatosplenomegaly, hypotonia and other multi-system damages.Cardiac echocardiography suggested the feature of dilated cardiomyopathy, including the significant enlargement of the left ventricle, and decreased systolic function.Genetic testing revealed a compound heterozygous mutation in the PMM2 gene, and as a result, the patient was diagnosed as CDG-Ia.The patient′s condition improved after symptomatic treatments such as Cedilanid, Dopamine, Dobutamine, Furosemide, as well as support treatments like myocardium nutrition, blood sugar maintenance, liver protection, etc.After discharge, the patient was given oral Digoxin, Betaloc, Captopril and diuretics, and hypoglycemia-controlling agents.The patient was followed up every 3-6 months.After more than 2 years of follow-up, the heart function and heart enlargement gradually returned to normal.During the Corona Virus Disease 2019 outbreak, self-withdrawal continued for 2 months.Re-examinations showed decreased cardiac function and enlarged left ventricle again.Medications were resumed again, and the patient was followed up closely.This case report suggested that CDG-Ia may be associated with dilated cardiomyopathy, and the cardiac phenotype may be improved by symptomatic supportive treatment.

Objective:To explore the risk factors of thrombocytopenia in children with patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) after transcatheter closure, and to establish a prediction model of thrombocytopenia after transcatheter closure of PDA.Methods:A total of 39 PDA children with thrombocytopenia after transcatheter closure treated in Children′s Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from November 2016 to January 2020 were selected.During the same period, 138 PDA children without thrombocytopenia after transcatheter closure were included in the control group. Logistic regression model was used to explore the possible risk factors of thrombocytopenia after transcatheter closure in PDA children, and a random forest model was established to predict the occurrence of thrombocytopenia after transcatheter closure of PDA. Results:After transcatheter closure of PDA, children developed thrombocytopenia within 1 to 7 days, and the platelet count recovered within 2 to 22 days. Logistic regression model suggested that the diameter of pulmonary artery end of arterial catheter ( OR=9.54, 95% CI: 2.08-48.84, P=0.004)and preoperative platelet count( OR=0.99, 95% CI: 0.98-0.99, P=0.001)were correlated with the occurrence of thrombocytopenia after transcatheter closure of PDA.The random forest model indicated that PDA inner diameter was the most important factor for predicting the occurrence of thrombocytopenia after transcatheter closure of PDA. Conclusions:A large diameter of arterial duct is an important risk factor and increased preoperative platelet count is a protective factor for thrombocytopenia after transcatheter closure of PDA.Diameter is of the greatest significance in predicting the occurrence of thrombocytopenia after transcatheter closure of PDA.

Objective:To evaluate the biosafety of medical injectable carboxymethyl glycosaminoglycan gel.Methods:Ames test, chromosome aberration test in vitro and gene mutation test in vitro were used to detect the genotoxicity of the medical carboxymethyl glycosaminoglycan gel. The gel saline extract (50 ml/kg) was injected slowly through the marginal vein of the ear into Japanese big-eared rabbits. The body temperature was measured and the temperature rise was calculated. The gel saline extract (50 ml/kg) and normal saline (control) were injected intraperitoneally and intravenously into the Kunming mice, respectively. The toxicity response in mice was observed after injection, and bodyweight change was valued. The gel saline extract, normal saline and distilled water were added into the rabbit anti-clotting, to detect the rate of hemolysis.Results:Under active and inactive conditions, the number of spontaneous revertants of the 4 strains of gel saline extract group and gel DMSO extract group did not reach 2 times of that of the corresponding negative control group. The rate of chromosome aberration of the three dose groups were 0. There was no significant increase in the large colony mutation frequency, small colony mutation frequency and total mutation frequency in three dose groups (all P>0.05). After injection of gel saline extract for 24, 48 and 72 h, no toxic reaction was found in each group of mice. With the extension of time after injection, the body weight of mice in the sample group and the control group increased, but the difference was not statistically significant ( P>0.05). After injection of gel saline extract, the temperature rise of 3 Japanese big-eared rabbits were 0.0, 0.3 and 0.2 ℃ respectively. The results of hemolysis test showed that the hemolysis rate of the polycarboxymethyl glucosamine gel was 0.1%. Conclusions:No genetic toxicity changes were found in carboxymethyl glycosaminoglycan to induce gene mutation or chromosome damage in bacteria and cells, and no pyrogenicity, acute systemic toxicity and hemolysis were observed. These results indicate that thecarboxymethyl glycosaminoglycan gel has good biosafety.

Objective To investigate the management of Graves' disease in Jiangsu province. Methods According to the 2011 management of GD survey from American Thyroid Association and the 2013 survey from European Thyroid Association, a questionnaire was designed for this survey to acquire the diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up of Graves' disease among endocrinologists from 35 tertiary hospitals in Jiangsu province. Results A total of 476 valid questionnaires were collected. For patients with symptoms of hyperthyroidism, a large majority of respondents monitored serum FT3 , FT4 , TSH, thyroid peroxidase antibody, thyroglobulin antibody, TSH receptor antibody, and finding of thyroid ultrasound, accounted for 95. 6％, 95. 0％, 95. 4％, 95. 8％, 90. 3％, 90. 5％, and 93. 9％physicians, respectively. 91.2％ of physicians preferred anti-thyroid drugs as the first-line treatment, and 92. 6％ of them gave priority to the use of methimazole. For the duration of anti-thyroid drugs therapy, 41.2％of endocrinologists chose 24 months, while 20％ chose 18 months. When patients have moderate and active ophthalmopathy, most respondents with medium or senior professional titles preferred anti-thyroid drugs, while most resident physicians chose radioactive iodine plus corticosteroids. When pregnancy was confirmed in the patients of Graves' disease, 88％ of respondents preferred propylthiouracil during the first trimester of pregnancy, and 58. 4％ of them would continue propylthiouracil into the second trimester. Conclusions The mastering of basic perception of Graves' disease knowledge is satisfactory among the endocrinologists. But by comparing to the American and European survey results and related guidelines, there are still some differences in diagnosis and treatment. Therefore, physicians should notice those differences and make improvement on standardized treatment for patients to raise the response ratio while reducing the recurrent events.
