Objective: To explore the longitudinal associations between dietary macronutrients and lung function in schoolaged children, so as to provide the nutritional research evidence for promoting children s lung health. Methods: In November 2021, two primary schools located in Chengdu, Sichuan Province were selected from the Southwest China Childhood Nutrition and Growth (SCCNG) cohort by a stratified cluster random sampling method, enrolling a total of 1 112 school aged children aged 8 to 13 years. At baseline, the dietary and sociodemographic characteristics of the children were assessed. One year later, the forced vital capacity (FVC) of the children was measured and converted into Z scores (FVC- Z ), while the vital capacity index (VCI) was also calculated. Generalized linear regression analysis was employed to examine the associations between dietary macronutrients and lung function, considering interactions with gender and age, followed by stratified analysis. Results: After adjusting for confounding factors, the analysis results of the generalized linear regression model showed that the carbohydrate energy ratio was negatively correlated with FVC- Z ( β =-0.02) and VCI ( β =-0.16), while the fat energy ratio showed a positive correlation with FVC- Z ( β =0.03) and VCI ( β =0.23) ( P <0.05). The protein energy ratio was positively correlated with FVC- Z ( β =0.09) and VCI ( β =0.60) specifically in girls ( P <0.05). Additionally, there was an interaction effect of age on the associations between macronutrients and lung function ( P <0.01); in children aged 8-9 and 10-11, the carbohydrate energy supply ratio was negatively correlated with FVC- Z ( β =-0.04, -0.03) and VCI ( β =-0.29, -0.21), and fat energy supply ratio was positively correlated with FVC- Z ( β =0.07, 0.05) and VCI ( β =0.46, 0.32) ( P <0.05). Conclusions There are age and sex differences in the association of dietary macronutrients with lung function, with a low carbohydrate, high fat diet promoting lung function in children. Additionally, protein intake appears to have a positive influence on the lung function of girls. The early school age period may represent a critical window for dietary interventions aimed at promoting lung health.

BackgroundObsessive-compulsive disorder （OCD） is a common neuropsychiatric illness and is listed as one of the top ten disabling conditions causing loss of income and reduced quality of life. Psychological distress is an important cause of anhedonia in OCD patients， and is closely related to psychosomatic symptoms. Therefore， exploring the role of anhedonia in the relationship between psychological distress and psychosomatic symptoms is of great significance for optimizing clinical psychological treatment protocols for OCD patients. ObjectiveTo explore the role of anhedonia in the relationship between psychological distress and psychosomatic symptoms in OCD patients， with the aim of providing references for managing psychosomatic symptoms in patients. MethodsA total of 90 patients who met the diagnostic criteria for OCD according to the International Classification of Diseases， tenth edition （ICD-10）， and who visited the Mental Health Center outpatient clinic of General Hospital of Ningxia Medical University from September 2023 to November 2024 were selected as the study objects. The instruments and techniques used for the evaluation were： Dimensional Anhedonia Rating Scale （DARS）， 10-item Kessler Psychological Distress Scale （K10） and Psychosomatic Symptom Scale （PSSS）. Model 4 of the Process for SPSS 26.0 was used to test the mediating role of anhedonia in the relationship between psychological distress and psychosomatic symptoms， with Bootstrapping used to assess the significance of mediating effect. ResultsA total of 84 patients （93.33%） completed the valid questionnaire. K10 score was positively correlated with PSSS total score， psychological symptom score and physical symptom score （r=0.559， 0.460， 0.551， P<0.01）. K10 score was negatively correlated with DARS total score （r=-0.527， P<0.01）. The total score of DARS was negatively correlated with PSSS total score （r=-0.497， P<0.01）. Anhedonia mediated the relationship between psychological distress and psychosomatic symptoms， with an indirect effect value was 0.148 （95% CI： 0.042~0.278）， accounting for 26.48% of the total effect. ConclusionPsychological distress can affect the psychosomatic symptoms in OCD patients both directly and indirectly via anhedonia.

Objective: To determine the association between the intake of five major types of prepackaged foods and the growth and development of school aged children, so as to provide a theoretical basis for guiding school aged children and their parents to make healthy prepackaged food choices. Methods: Based on data from the South West China Childhood Nutrition and Growth Cohort (SCCNG), 381 children (6-11 years of age) were selected by stratified cluster sampling. Dietary intake and pubertal development were collected using questionnaires, and anthropometric measurements were obtained. Children were followed up until November 2022. Binary Logistic regression models were used to analyze the prospective association between prepackaged food intake and the growth and development of school aged children. Results: The total intake of the five major types of prepackaged foods was 316.1 (197.1,501.4) g/d. After 2 years of follow up evaluations, 16.5% of school aged children were shown to be overweight and obese. Early spermarche occurred in 12.6% of boys and early menarche occurred in 15.4% of girls. The following findings were suggested after adjusting for the mothers education level, average gross monthly family income, whether or not the family had one child only, geographic area of residence, body mass index Z score, average duration of daily exercise, and total dietary energy intake: convenience food intake might increase the risk of early spermarche ( OR =9.37); fruit and vegetable intake might decrease the risk of early spermarche and menarche ( OR =0.33,0.17); and fish, poultry, meat, and egg intake might increase the risk of early menarche ( OR =7.59)( P <0.05). Intake of the five types of prepackaged foods was not associated with being overweight or obese after adjusting for confounders ( OR =1.40, 0.57, 0.73, 1.33,1.57, P >0.05). Conclusions The relationship between intake of the five major types of prepackaged foods and pubertal development is inconsistent and no significant correlation was detected between the intake of prepackaged foods and overweight or obese children. Nutrition education should be strengthened to help children and their parents choose healthy prepackaged foods.

Objective: To investigate the prospective effects of intake of each food group on the development of lung function of pupils,so as to provide theoretical basis for promoting the healthy development of lung function and preventing chronic respiratory diseases in Chinese children. Methods: A cluster stratified sampling method was used to select a total of 893 pupils in grades 2-5 from Chengdu in November 2021. Dietary data of respondents were collected using a food frequency questionnaire within the past year,then the food group intake was categorized into T1, T2 and T3 from low to high by the trichotomous method, and anthropometric measurements including lung capacity were obtained in 2022. Logistic regression models and test for trend were used to analyze the prospective effects of intake of each food group on lung function development of pupils. Results: Among male students, consumption of vegetables [118.6(50.5, 188.2)g/d] and milk and dairy products [200.0(73.3, 250.0)g/d] were higher in the excellent lung capacity group than in the non excellent lung capacity group [90.0(37.1, 192.9), and 178.6(35.7, 250.0)g/d],with statistically significant differences ( Z =-1.98, -2.24); among girls, the group with excellent lung capacity consumed less staple food [391.1(273.6, 511.4)g/d] than the group with non excellent lung capacity [407.4(309.5, 594.3)g/d], and the group with excellent lung capacity consumed more aquatic products [31.2(14.6, 69.8)g/d] and milk and dairy products [215.0(107.1, 250.1) g/d ] than that of the non excellent lung capacity [19.4(10.7, 58.3), 114.3(35.7, 250.0)g/d] ( Z =-2.01, -3.33, -5.10)( P < 0.05 ). After adjusting for energy, body mass index Z score(BMI Z ), mother s education level, averge family income monthly, whether presence of smokers in the living environment, and whether participation in physical activities during the past week, among male students, T3 group of vegetable intake ( OR =0.48, 95% CI = 0.27-0.86), T2 group of bean and soy product intake ( OR = 0.52 , 95% CI =0.27-0.96)，T2 and T3 groups of milk and dairy products intake (T2： OR =0.54, 95% CI =0.31-0.93; T3： OR = 0.52 , 95% CI =0.30-0.90) were negatively associated with non excellent lung capacity ( P <0.05). Among girls, T3 group of aquatic product intake( OR =0.52, 95% CI =0.28-0.97), T2 and T3 groups of milk and dairy product (T2: OR =0.44, 95% CI =0.25- 0.76 ;T3: OR =0.33, 95% CI =0.19-0.59) were negatively associated with nonexcellent lung capacity, whereas the T2 group of red meat intake ( OR =2.51, 95% CI =1.37-4.67) was positively associated with non excellent lung capacity. Non excellent lung capacity was found to be negatively associated with vegetable and milk and dairy product intake in boys by test for trend; in girls, milk and dairy products intake was negatively associated with non excellent lung capacity, whereas red meat intake was positively associated with non excellent lung capacity ( t =-1.13，-0.44；-3.03，1.95, P trend <0.05). Conclusions Milk and dariy products intakes reduce the risk of non excellent lung capacity in pupils, vegetables intakes reduce the risk of non excellent lung capacity in boys, and the intake of red meat increases the risk of non excellent lung capacity in girls. Promoting rational food choices is necessary for children to improve healthy lung development.

Background Schizophrenia and the use of antipsychotic medications are identified to be the likely contributors to the development of metabolic syndrome(MS)and cardiovascular disease,and jeopardize the prognosis of schizophrenia.Therefore,effectively preventing or reducing the risk of developing MS in patients with schizophrenia is critical.Objective To explore the efficacy of aripiprazole combined with olanzapine for male schizophrenia patients and its effect on MS,so as to provide a certain reference for the selection of antipsychotic drugs for schizophrenia patients.Methods Male patients(n=80)who were hospitalized in The Third People's Hospital of Meizhou from February to June 2023 and fulfilling the International Classification of Diseases,tenth edition(ICD-10)diagnostic criteria for the schizophrenia were enrolled,and grouped using random number table method,each with 40 cases.Study group was treated with aripiprazole combined with olanzapine,while control group was given aripiprazole monotherapy.The treatment lasted for 6 continuous weeks in both groups.At the baseline,Positive and Negative Symptom Scale(PANSS)score,MS-related indices[fasting plasma glucose(FPG),hemoglobin A1c(HbA1c),body mass index(BMI),waist-to-hip ratio(WHR),lipid profile],S100 calcium-binding protein B(S100B)and high sensitivity C-reactive protein(hs-CRP)were recorded.Then the PANSS scores at the end of the 2nd,4th and 6th week of treatment,the Clinical Global Impression(CGI)scores at the end of the 2nd and 6th week of treatment,as well as the MS-related indices,S100B,hs-CRP,Treatment Emergent Symptom Scale(TESS)score and Rating Scale for Extrapyramidal Side Effects(RSESE)score at the end of the 6th week of treatment were recorded in all participants.Results Analysis on PANSS score revealed a significant group effect,time effect and group×time interaction effect(F=18.092,634.780,2.917,P<0.05 or 0.01).Analysis on CGI score revealed a significant group effect and time effect(F=20.492,99.190,P<0.01).At the end of the 6th week of treatment,study group detected lower serum concentrations of HbA1c and triglyceride(TG)compared with control group(t=-3.495,-3.293,P<0.05).The post-treatment hs-CRP level was lower in study group than that in control group(t=-3.916,P<0.05).Study group scored lower on TESS compared with control group(t=-4.684,P<0.01).Conclusion Aripiprazole combined with olanzapine can effectively alleviate psychotic states in male schizophrenia patients,and the combination therapy yields less impact on MS-related indices than olanzapine monotherapy.

AIM:To compare the effects of 0.01% with 0.05% atropine eye drops on pupil diameter(PD)and intraocular pressure(IOP)in myopic children.METHODS: Prospective non-randomized controlled study. A total of 232 myopic children who treated at the Department of Ophthalmology, the Second People's Hospital of Puyang from March 2021 to February 2022 were included. They were divided into 0.01% atropine eye drops group(81 cases), 0.05% atropine eye drops group(77 cases), and control group(74 cases)according to patients' will, respectively. The control group received placebo eye drops(isotonic excipient). The PD and IOP of the three groups of patients were measured before medication and at 6 and 12 mo after medication.RESULTS: Finally, 181 cases(181 eyes)(with all right eye data included in the study)completed a 1-year follow-up, with a loss to follow-up rate of 22.0%(51/232). Among them, 62 cases(62 eyes)belonged to the 0.01% atropine eye drops group, 54 cases(54 eyes)belonged to the 0.05% atropine eye drops group, and 65 cases(65 eyes)belonged to the control group. There was no significant difference in baseline PD and IOP among the three groups(all P<0.05). After 12 mo of medication, the changes in PD among the 0.01% atropine eye drops group, 0.05% atropine eye drops group, and control group were 0.79±0.70, 1.29±0.66, and 0.06±0.74 mm, respectively(P<0.001). The change in PD in the 0.05% atropine eye drops group was significantly greater than that in both the 0.01% atropine eye drops group and the control group. Similarly, the change in PD in the 0.01% atropine eye drops group was significantly greater than that in the control group(all P<0.05). After 12 mo of medication, the changes in IOP among the 0.01% atropine eye drops group, 0.05% atropine eye drops group, and control group were -0.70±1.94, -0.22±1.79, and 0.25±2.03 mmHg, respectively(P<0.05). The changes in IOP in the 0.05% atropine eye drops group showed statistically significant difference compared to both the 0.01% atropine eye drops group and the control group(all P>0.05), and the changes in IOP in the 0.01% atropine eye drops group were statistically significant compared to the control group(P<0.05). Multivariate linear regression analysis revealed that baseline refractive error and baseline PD were significant factors influencing the change in PD among children treated with atropine eye drops(β=0.230, 95%CI: 0.005-0.455, SE=0.114, t=2.025, P=0.045; β=-0.562, 95%CI: -0.729--0.396, SE=0.084, t=6.697, P<0.001). Additionally, baseline IOP was significant factor influencing the change in IOP among children in the atropine eye drop groups(β=-0.285, 95%CI: -0.439--0.131, SE=0.078, t=3.662, P<0.001).CONCLUSION: The PD of myopic children increased after using 0.01% and 0.05% atropine eye drops, and the change in PD after using 0.05% atropine eye drops was significantly greater than that of 0.01% atropine eye drops. No risk was found in the use of 0.01% and 0.05% atropine eye drops and elevated IOP.

Objective:To explore the gene microarray of patients with ankylosing spondylitis in GEO database by using various bioinformatics methods, and to explore the possible targets and mechanisms of action.Methods:The GEO database was searched with "ankylosing spondylitis" the keyword, and the expression profile of genes related to AS was selected as the research object. Standard difference analysis, weighted co-expression analysis and gene set enrichment analysis were conducted to construct the disease set. GO and KEGG enrichment analysis were performed on the disease sets. The NCC algorithm identifies the first five key genes. THP-1 cells were implanted into RPMI-1640 culture medium containing 10% fetal bovine serum to multiply and construct the cell model of AS in vitro. The expression levels of 5 key genes were detected by qRT-PCR and Western blot. The experimental measurement data were expressed as mean± standard deviation, and the t test was used in comparison between the two groups. Results:One thousand six hundred and sixty seven disease genes were analyzed, functional annotation was mainly concentrated in 689 molecular components of cytoplasmic ribosomes, ribosomal subunits, ribosomes, cytoplasmic large ribosomal subunits, the structural composition of ribosomal REDOX enzyme activity, 1 002 molecular functions of NADH dehydrogenase activity, NADH dehydrogenase activity, and 5 764 molecular processes of mRNA catabolism and RNA catabolism The physical process involved 1 002 signaling pathways involved in Alzheimer′s disease, Prion disease, Parkinson′s disease, and the first 5 key genes were identified as RPS11, RPL4, RPL37A, RPS23, and RPS9. The experimental results were obtained by t test. The results showed that TNF-α mRNA ( t=5.59, P=0.001) and protein ( t=20.14, P<0.001) were significantly increased, indicating that LPS had induced inflammatory response in THP-1 cells, while RPL37AmRNA ( t=5.87, P=0.001), RPS11 mRNA ( t=3.88, P=0.008), RPS23 mRNA ( t=2.64, P=0.038), RPL37A protein ( t=3.18, P=0.030), RPS11 protein ( t=11.26, P<0.001), RPS23 protein ( t=5.64, P<0.001), increased, while RPS9 mRNA ( t=3.16, P=0.020), RPL4 mRNA ( t=2.54, P=0.044), RPS9 protein ( t=5.85, P<0.001) and RPL4 ( t=2.93, P=0.040) protein expressions decreased. RPL23 stimulated the joint synovial tissue to produce effect-T lymphocytes and release a large number of IL-2 and other inflammatory cytokines. RPS9 acts on the early stages of ribosomogenesis, and knocking down RPS9 reduced overall protein synthesis. RPL4 interacted with TTC22 protein to enhance the binding of WTAP mRNA to RPL4, which was associated with immune diseases. The nucleoprotein OGFOD1 catalyzed the hydroxylation of RPS23 and participated in the inflammatory process. The chromosome conformation confirmed the single nucleotide polymorphism function of IL23R genomic locus in AS disease. Conclusion:Ribosomal protein may be an important target for exploring the mechanism of AS inflammation.

Objective To develop a risk prediction model for postoperative malnutrition in children with congenital heart disease(CHD)and to verify it both internally and externally.Methods By a convenience sampling method,300 CHD children treated at a tertiary hospital in Shandong Province from January 2018 to December 2021 were selected as a modeling group,and 129 children from January 2022 to June 2023 were selected as a validation group.Data on patient demographics,disease-specific variables,therapeutic interventions,and nursing care parameters were collected.Single factor and logistic regression were employed to construct a risk prediction model for postoperative malnutrition in CHD children,and the nomogram was drawn and its prediction effect was evaluated.Results The incidence of postoperative malnutrition among CHD children was 33.10％.Logistic regression analysis revealed that risk factors for malnutrition in children included birth weight＜2.5 kg,preoperative malnutrition,negative fluid balance 1 week after surgery,and long duration of cardiopulmonary bypass(P＜0.05).The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of the modeling group was 0.933;the sensitivity was 83.30％;the specificity was 90.90％.The Hosmer-Lemeshow test showed that x2=7.765(P=0.457).The AUC of the validation group was 0.918;the sensitivity was 87.20％;the specificity was 90.00％.The Hosmer-Lemeshow test showed that x2=4.947(P=0.763).Calibration curves for both groups indicated good calibration of the model,and the clinical decision curves demonstrated its practical clinical utility.Conclusion The risk prediction model developed in this study exhibits good predictive ability,which can provide a reference for medical staff to early identify high-risk infants for postoperative malnutrition following CHD surgery and to formulate targeted intervention measures.

Objective:To explore the histopathological factors affecting the stiffness of papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC).Methods:Ninety-six patients with PTC confirmed by surgery and pathology in Shanxi Bethune Hospital from January 2019 to December 2020 were selected, including 101 nodules. Two-dimensional ultrasound and shear-wave elastography (SWE) were performed before surgery and the average Young's modulus (Emean) of PTC nodules were measured. Histopathological examinations on the nodules were conducted after surgery to decide the lesion size, number of lesions, calcification type, presence or absence of capsular and extracapsular invasion, degree of fibrosis, microvessel density, and number of tumor cells. The correlations between the lesion size, degree of fibrosis, microvessel density, and number of tumor cells and the Emean were analyzed. The Emeans of nodules with different numbers of lesions, presence or absence of capsular and extracapsular invasion, and different pathological calcification types were compared. The multiple linear regression analysis was used to evaluate the histopathological factors influencing the Emean.Results:The ranges of the lesion sizes, degrees of fibrosis, microvascular density, numbers of tumor cells, and the Emeans of the 101 investigated PTC nodules were (1.29±0.95) cm, (30.64±18.37)%, (101.64±30.7) vessels per high power field, (373.52±149.87) cells per high power field, and (36.47±19.62) kPa, respectively. Correlation analysis showed that the lesion size of PTC and the degree of fibrosis were positively correlated with the Emean ( r=0.660, P＜0.001; r=0.789, P＜0.001), while the microvessel density was negatively correlated with the Emean ( r=-0.198, P=0.047). The Emean of the group with capsular and extracapsular invasion was higher than that of the group without ( P=0.014). There were statistical differences in the Emeans among different types of pathological calcification ( P＜0.001). The multiple linear regression analysis showed that the lesion size ( β=0.325, P＜0.001), degree of fibrosis ( β=0.563, P＜0.001), psammoma bodies ( β=0.177, P=0.001), stromal calcification ( β=0.164, P=0.003), and mixed calcification of both psammoma bodies and stroma ( β=0.163, P=0.003) were independent influencing factors for the Emean. The degree of fibrosis had the greatest impact on the Emean. Conclusions:The Emean of PTC lesions was correlated with the histopathological characteristics of PTC. The lesion size, degree of fibrosis, and calcification had significant impact on the Emean, among which the degree of fibrosis had the greatest impact.
