BackgroundPreventing and intervening in adolescent gaming disorder is of significant practical importance. Gaming motivation is strongly linked to gaming addiction and serves a key function in comprehending and addressing addictive gaming behaviors. However, the relationship between components of gaming motivation and symptoms of gaming disorder remains unclear. ObjectiveTo explore the relationship between components of gaming motivation and symptoms of gaming disorder among adolescents, so as to provide references for the prevention and intervention of gaming disorder in this population. MethodsFrom January to February 2024, a cluster sampling method was employed to select 1 414 adolescents from four middle schools in Sichuan Province and Chongqing Municipality as participants in the study. Online Game Motivation Scale (OGMS) and Gaming Disorder Scale for Adolescents (GADIS-A) were administered. Network analysis methods were utilized to investigate the relationships between components of gaming motivation and symptoms of gaming disorder. ResultsThe network edge weights revealed that achievement motivation was positively correlated with impaired game control ability, continued gaming despite negative consequences and the frequency of symptom occurrence (r=0.115, 0.050, 0.076, P<0.05). Social motivation was negatively correlated with negative consequences (r=-0.054, P<0.05),while immersion motivation was positively correlated with continued gaming despite negative consequences (r=0.032, P<0.05). Achievement motivation exhibited the highest strength centrality (1.157) among the three components of gaming motivation. ConclusionThe connections between components of gaming motivation and symptoms of gaming disorder exhibit distinct patterns, with each motivational component influencing gaming disorder through specific symptom pathway. Among these components, achievement motivation plays the most critical role in the interplay between gaming motivation and symptoms of gaming disorder.

Objective:
To investigate the characteristics of AHFtest-based HIV antibody self-testing among male adolescents at ages of 15 to 24 years, so as to provide insights into the promotion of HIV antibody self-testing.
Methods:
Data were collected from male adolescents at ages of 15 to 24 years that applied for HIV antibody self-testing in the AHFtest platform from 2019 to 2021, with mailing address showing as Zhejiang Province, and demographics, applying cause and testing results were analyzed.
Results:
A total of 268 male adolescents were enrolled, with a median age of 22.00 (interquartile range, 3.00) years. There were 160 cases with an educational level of junior college/bachelor (59.70%), 147 students (54.85%), 175 men who had sex with men (65.30%), and 126 cases with a history of previous HIV antibody self-testing (47.01%). The main causes for applying for HIV antibody self-testing through AHFtest were "easy to operate" (259 cases, 96.64%) and "privacy protect" (102 cases, 38.06%). There were 203 subjects that applied once HIV antibody self-testing (75.75%), and 65 subjects that applied multiple self-testing (24.25%). There were 123 subjects that uploaded their test results (45.90%), including 3 cases with HIV antibody positive, and 125 subjects that did not tell others the self-testing results (46.64%).
Conclusions
Among male applicants at ages of 15 to 24 years in Zhejiang Province from 2019 to 2021, students are predominant occupation. Easy to operate and privacy protect are the main cause for the application, but the proportion of detection results uploading is relatively low.

Objective:Childhood traumatic experiences greatly influenced the brain network activities of patients with depression,and there is an urgent need to explore the temporal dynamics for these changes.This study aims to investigate the abnormalities of resting-state electroencephalogram(EEG)microstates in eye-open state of depressed adolescents and to explore the correlations between their EEG microstates and the childhood traumatic experience. Methods:Using resting-state EEG microstate analysis,we explored the temporal dynamics of brain activity in patients with adolescent depression.This study selected 66 adolescents with depression as a patient group,and 27 healthy adolescents as a healthy control group.A modified k-means clustering algorithm was used to classify the 64-channel resting-state EEG data into different microstates.Independent sample t-tests were used to compare the microstate parameters between the 2 groups and further assciations between these parameters and childhood traumatic experience in patients were explored via using Spearman correlation. Results:In this study,significant differences were observed in the occurrence and transition probabilities of EEG microstates between the healthy control and the patient group.Notably,there was a statistically significant difference(P<0.05)in the occurrence of microstate A across 2 groups,exhibiting a negative correlation with the emotional abuse component within the childhood trauma scores(Spearman's rho=-0.31,P=0.013).Furthermore,patient-specific,non-random transitions from microstate B to A(Spearman's rho=-0.30,P=0.015)and C to A(Spearman's rho=-0.31,P=0.013)were inversely associated with the scores of emotional abuse factors from childhood trauma in the patient group,showing statistically significant differences when comparing to the healthy controls(P<0.05).Upon stratification into quartiles based on the emotional abuse factor scores,the occurrence of microstate A,as well as the transition rates from microstates B to A and C to A,retained statistical significance following adjustment for multiple comparisons(all P<0.05). Conclusion:The abnormal temporal dynamics in brain networks of adolescents with depression are linked to childhood emotional abuse.Those who have suffered severe emotional abuse may show greater impairments in the brain's visual and central executive networks.EEG microstate analysis could be a potential tool for detecting adolescent depression with severe childhood trauma.

Glial cells in the central nervous system (CNS) are composed of oligodendrocytes, astrocytes and microglia. They contribute more than half of the total cells of the CNS, and are essential for neural development and functioning. Studies on the fate specification, differentiation, and functional diversification of glial cells mainly rely on the proper use of cell- or stage-specific molecular markers. However, as cellular markers often exhibit different specificity and sensitivity, careful consideration must be given prior to their application to avoid possible confusion. Here, we provide an updated overview of a list of well-established immunological markers for the labeling of central glia, and discuss the cell-type specificity and stage dependency of their expression.

Objective:
To investigate the characteristics of temporary heterosexual behaviors among male college students through Internet dating, so as to provide insights into HIV/AIDS control among young college students.
Methods:
A total of 15 universities/colleges were sampled from Zhejiang Province using a stratified cluster sampling method, and 3 schools/departments were sampled from each university/college. Male college students with temporary heterosexual behaviors during the past year were recruited. Participants' demographics, AIDS-related knowledge, compliance to HIV/AIDS interventions, Internet dating and sexual behaviors were collected, and the characteristics of male college students with Internet dating were analyzed.
Results :
A total of 326 students were enrolled, including 202 participants from regular institutions of higher education (61.96%) and 124 students from higher vocational colleges (38.04%). There were 79 freshmen (24.23%), 99 sophomores (30.37%), 104 juniors (31.90%) and 44 seniors (13.50%), and there were 100 participants (30.67%) with temporary heterosexual behaviors through Internet dating during the past year. Among the 100 participants, there were 75.00% of participants knowing “man who have sex with man is the main transmission pattern of AIDS among young students in China”, 93.00% knowing “insisting on accurate use of condoms may reduce the risk of HIV infections and transmission” and 93.00% knowing “seeking HIV testing and counseling actively following high-risk behaviors”. There were 77 participants (77.00%) with students as their temporary heterosexual partners, 17 participants (17.00%) that had received HIV self-testing and 17 participants (17.00%) that had received HIV testing in medical institutions, 22 participants (22.00%) that had never used condoms during temporary heterosexual behaviors during the past year, and 29 participants (29.00%) with commercial sexual behaviors during the past year. In addition, male college students with temporary heterosexual behaviors through Internet dating were more unlikely to use condoms and more likely to have commercial sexual behaviors than those with dating through other ways (P<0.05).
Conclusions
Male college students with temporary heterosexual behaviors through Internet dating are more likely to have high-risk sexual behaviors than those with dating through other ways. Internet-based mobile sexual education and HIV/AIDS health education are recommended.

To mask the bitterness of azithromycin(AZI) and improve patient compliance, an AZI-loaded microsphere (AZI-EC MS) for oral administration was prepared by O/W emulsion solvent evaporation with ethylcellulose (EC) as carrier. The release profiles and taste-masking effect of AZI-EC MS were preliminarily assessed. Its physical properties and morphology were then investigated by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and scanning electron microscope (SEM). The results indicated that the polymer weight of EC could influence the drug release behavior. With a drug polymer ratio of 1∶1 and mixed EC (N22/T10, 7∶3) as carrier, the cumulative release of AZI-EC MS at 0.5 h was less than 40% and reached 90% at 8 h; the drug loading efficiency of microspheres was (48.95 ± 0.86)% with smooth spherical morphology. The AZI bitterness threshold is 9.93 μg/mL with a strong bitter taste, which indicated a better taste masking effect. Therefore, AZI-EC MS prepared in this study can mask AZI bitterness and improve patient compliance, setting the stage for the research of new AZI preparations.
