Objective:
To investigate the causal relationship between junior high school students aggressive behavior, physical exercise and academic performance, so as to provide a reference basis for the development of scientific exercise programs.
Methods:
A longitudinal followup study was conducted on 502 junior high school students over a 12month period from June 2021 to June 2022 using the Buss-Perry Aggressive Questionnaire (BPAQ), Physical Activity Questionnaire for Adolescents (PAQ-A), and test scores as the measurement tools (T1:June 2021, T2:December 2021, T3:June 2022), and a crosslagged model was constructed to measure the relationship between aggression, physical activity and academic performance.
Results:
At T1, physical exercise had a positive effect on academic performance at T2 (β=0.22) and a negative effect on aggressive behavior at T2 (β=-0.13), aggressive behavior negatively affected academic performance at T2 (β=-0.23), and academic performance had a negative effect on aggressive behavior at T2 (β=-0.09). Physical exercise at T2 had a negative effect on aggressive behavior at T3 (β=-0.05) and a positive effect on academic performance at T3 (β=0.19). Aggressive behavior at T2 negatively influenced academic performance at T3 (β=-0.08). Academic performance at T2 negatively influenced aggressive behavior at T3 (β=-0.06) (P<0.05). The results of crosslagged modeling of junior high school students aggressive behavior, physical exercise and academic performance showed that the model was well fitted (χ2/df=8.80, CFI=0.96, NFI=0.95, RFI=0.87, IFI=0.96, TLI=0.88, RMSEA=0.12). The results of multigroup structural equation modeling showed that the differences between the models and the baseline model (CFI=0.95, TLI=0.86, RMSEA=0.10, 90%CI=0.08-0.11, P<0.01) were not statistically significant in terms of gender (△CFI<0.05, P>0.05).
Conclusions
Physical exercise negatively predictes aggressive behavior and positively predictes academic performance, and academic performance and aggressive behavior negatively affect each other. A scientific exercise program should be developed to reduce aggression and effectively improve adolescents academic performance.

Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy and mechanism of Ganoderma lucidum hypoglycemic formula in the treatment of insulin resistance in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) with liver and kidney yin deficiency. Methods:A total of 86 patients with T2DM with liver and kidney yin deficiency who were diagnosed and treated at Yueyang Hospital of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine, Shanghai University of Traditional Chinese Medicine from January 2021 to February 2022 were included in this study. These patients were divided into a control group and a treatment group, with 43 patients in each group using a 1:1 ratio using the sealed envelope method. Both groups were treated with standardized Western medicine. The treatment group was also treated with the Ganoderma lucidum hypoglycemic formula. All patients were followed up for 12 weeks. The clinical symptoms, curative effect, glucose and lipid metabolism, inflammatory factors, oxidative stress change, and safety were compared between the two groups. Results:The total response rate in the treatment group was 88.4% (38/43), which was significantly higher than 53.5% (23/43) in the control group ( χ2 = 12.69, P < 0.001). After treatment, the traditional Chinese medicine syndrome score, fasting blood glucose, 2-hour postprandial blood glucose, glycosylated hemoglobin, insulin resistance index, total cholesterol, triglyceride, tumor necrosis factor α, and interleukin-6 decreased in each group. The amplitudes of decrease of the above indexes were greater in the treatment group compared with the control group (all P < 0.05). C-peptide in the fasting state, C-peptide at 2 hours after a diet, and superoxide dismutase increased in each group. The amplitudes of increase of the three indexes were greater in the treatment group compared with the control group (all P < 0.05). Conclusion:Ganoderma lucidum hypoglycemic formula can greatly improve insulin resistance and glucose and lipid metabolism in T2DM patients with liver and kidney yin deficiency. The underlying mechanism may be to further reduce the inflammatory response and anti-oxidative stress by down-regulating tumor necrosis factor α and interleukin-6 levels and up-regulating superoxide dismutase level, thereby effectively alleviating insulin resistance in T2DM.

To study the expression of DNAJB11 protein in epithelial ovarian cancer tissues and its clinical significance.Immunohistochemistry was used to examine DNAJB11 expressions in 105 tissue specimens of ovarian epithelial carcinoma, 23 normal ovarian tissues, 17 tissues of benign tumor, and 13 tissues of of borderline tumor. The correlations between protein expression and clinicopathological factors were analyzed by Chi square test.The correlations between protein expression and survival were analyzed by Kaplan-Meier and Cox regression.Positive expression of DNAJB11 protein was observed in 0.0% in normal ovary and benign tumor, 7.69% in borderline tumor, and 78.10% in epithelial ovarian cancer, respectively. Positive expression of DNAJB11 protein was significantly higher than the rest of the ovarian tissues and normal ovarian tissues (<0.001).Higher expression of DNAJB11 was more prevalent in tissues from patients with advanced FIGO stages, high serum CA125, poor histological differentiation, and serous cancer. Kaplan-Meier curves revealed that higher expression of DNAJB11 was significantly associated with poor disease-free survival and overall survival.Multivariate survival analysis revealed that strong positive expression of DNAJB11 was an independent prognostic factor for disease-free survival and overall survival.DNAJB11 may play a role in tumorigenesis and progression of epithelial ovarian cancer.Strong positive expression of DNAJB11 was an independent prognostic factor in epithelial ovarian cancer.

BACKGROUND:cells under mechanical stimulation can achieve their biological functions by converting mechanical signals into chemical signals through certain signal transduction mechanism. As the fibrous framework throughout a cell, cytoskeleton is one of the critical components in this process.
OBJECTIVE:Through systemical y analyzing the role of the cytoskeleton in mechanical signal transduction, to provide a potential therapeutic target for the clinical treatment of cytoskeleton related diseases.
METHODS:In order to search relevant articles about the mechanics mechanism of signal transduction of cytoskeleton from PubMed and CNKI databases (from 1990 to 2012), a computer-based search was performed, using the key words of“cytoskeleton, microtubules, microfilaments, intermediate filaments, mechanical stimulation, signal transduction”in English and Chinese, respectively. After eliminating literatures which were irrelevant to research purpose or containing a similar content, 48 articles were chosen for further analysis.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Mechanical stimulation plays an important role in cellproliferation, development and apoptosis. With the gradual understanding of the biological function of cytoskeleton, people have found that cytoskeleton is one of the critical components in the process of the mechanical signal transduction. After getting mechanical stimulation, cytoskeleton can be reorganized through Rho, protein kinase C, integrin and mitogen-activated protein kinase signaling pathways, then converting the mechanical stimulation to chemical signals and finishing its biological functions final y.
