Objective: To understand the moderating effect of cohabitation with parents on the association between peer dating behavior and sexual behaviors among secondary vocational school students, so as to provide a scientific basis for preventing sexual behaviors among secondary vocational school students. Methods: From March to April 2021, an electronic questionnaire survey was conducted among 3 180 students from 6 vocational schools in Shanghai (urban, suburban, exurban) and Shaanxi (Shangluo, Ankang, Baoji) using cluster sampling. Spearman correlation analysis was used to investigate the relationship of cohabitation with parents, peer dating behavior and sexual behaviors among secondary vocational school students. Binary Logistic regression analysis was performed to investigate the role of cohabitation with parents on peer dating behavior and sexual behaviors among secondary vocational students. Results: There was a significant negative between cohabitation with parents and sexual ( r =-0.04); and there was a positive correlation between peer dating behavior and sexual behaviors ( r =0.24), as well as cohabitation with parents and peer dating behavior ( r =0.04)( P <0.05). Multivariable Logistic regression analysis showed an association between peer dating behavior and the occurrence of sexual behaviors ( OR=2.79-12.95, P <0.05). Cohabitation with parents played a moderating role in the association between peer dating behavior and sexual behaviors, and a signification interaction was found between cohabitation with parents and reporting that a small part or about half of their peers had dating behavior ( OR =0.48, P <0.05). Conclusions The more peers dating behavior are associated with a higher risk of sexual behaviors among secondary vocational school students, and cohabitation with parents can partly reduce this risk. School and family sexuality education for secondary vocational students should be strengthened to improve their interpersonal skills and decision-making, and ability to resist peer pressure, so as to reduce their risk of sexual behaviors.

ObjectiveTo establish a rat model of osteoarthritis and study the anti-inflammatory effects and mechanisms of fraxetin. MethodsEighteen 8-week-old male SPF-grade SD rats were randomly divided into three groups: Rats in the blank group received a right articular cavity injection of 50 μL of normal saline for 1 week; the model and intervention groups were injected with monosodium iodoacetate (MIA) into the right joint cavity to induce osteoarthritis, while the intervention group subsequently received fraxetin (5 mg·kg^-1·d^-1) for 1 week. Four weeks after drug intervention, abdominal aortic blood was collected. The animals were then euthanized, and knee joint cartilage were collected. The cartilage samples were stained with hematoxylin-eosin, safranin O-fast green, and toluidine blue for histopathological examination and scoring using the Mankin and OARSI scoring systems. The trabecular bone volume/total volume (Tb.BV/TV), trabecular bone surface density/total volume (Tb.BS/TV), and trabecular number (Tb.N) of each group were compared and analyzed using a micro-CT scanning system. The expression levels of various inflammatory factors [tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α), interleukin-1β (IL-1β), interleukin-6 (IL-6)], and cartilage oligomeric matrix protein (COMP) were measured using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The expression levels of mitogen-activated protein kinase p38 (p38 MAPK), phosphorylation-p38 MAPK (p-p38 MAPK), c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK), and phosphorylation-JNK (p-JNK) were measured by western blotting. ResultsThe staining of cartilage sections of rat knee joints showed that the articular surface defects in the model group were severe, while the cartilage destruction in the intervention group was relatively reduced. Micro-CT results showed that Tb.BV/TV, Tb.BS/TV and Tb.N in the intervention group were significantly higher than those in the model group (P < 0.05); the Mankin score in the model group was significantly higher than that in the blank group (P < 0.05), the Mankin score in the intervention group was significantly lower than that in the model group (P < 0.05); while the OARSI score in the intervention group was significantly lower than that in the model group (P < 0.05). The results of the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay showed that the serum levels of TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6, and COMP in the model group were significantly higher than those in the blank group (all P < 0.05), while those in the intervention group were significantly lower than in the model group (P < 0.05). Western blot results showed that the expression levels of p-p38 MAPK and p-JNK in the knee cartilage tissue were significantly lower in the intervention group than in the model group (both P < 0.05), and significantly higher in the model group than in the blank group (both P < 0.05). ConclusionFraxetin may play a therapeutic role in a monosodium iodoacetate-induced rat model of osteoarthritis through the p38 MAPK pathway.

Objective To construct reference ranges of cardiac size and morphologic parameters in low-risk fetuses at 28-39 gestational weeks using two-dimensional speckle tracking technique.Methods A prospective collection of 453 low-risk singleton pregnancies with echocardiography at Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital,Fudan University was used to assess the size(length,width,and area)and morphology(sphericity index,i.e.,the ratio of length to width)of the fetal four-chamber view and two ventricles using two-dimensional speckle tracking technique.Repeated inter-and intra-observer agreement of measurements was assessed using the intraclass correlation coefficients(ICCs).Statistical analysis of cardiac measurement parameters was performed to establish reference ranges of values for cardiac size and morphology in low-risk fetuses.Results The inter-and intra-group ICCs for reproducibility tests of fetal cardiac parameters measurements were 0.691 to 0.980.Fetal four-chamber view and ventricular size increased with gestational week(all P<0.001),the end-diastolic length of the left ventricle was larger than that of the right ventricle,and the end-diastolic diameter was smaller than that of the right ventricle(both P<0.001),while there was no significant difference in the end-diastolic area of the two ventricles(P= 0.050).The spherical index of four-chamber view did not correlate with gestational week(P=0.811).The sphericity index of the basal and intermediate segments of the left ventricle was greater than that of the right ventricle,and the sphericity index of the apical segment was less than that of the right ventricle,the differences were statistically significant(all P<0.01).Conclusion The two-dimensional speckle tracking technique for measuring fetal cardiac parameters has good reproducibility.The reference ranges for cardiac size and morphology in low-risk fetuses developed in this study will be useful for prenatal evaluation of cardiac remodeling.

Objective: To understand sexual and reproductive health knowledge, access to sexuality education and associated factors among secondary vocational school students in Shanghai Municipality and Shaanxi Province, so as to provide a scientific basis for conducting sexuality educaiton in vocational schools. Methods: A crosssectional survey was conducted among 3 180 students in grades 1-3 selected by cluster sampling during April to June 2021 in six secondary vocational schools from three cities of Shanghai and Shaanxi (Shangluo, Ankang, Baoji). Participants were investigated through online questionnaire survey, inlcuding demographic characteristics, household information, sexual health at home and school, knowledge on sexual and reproductive health. Both t test and Chisquare test were used for group comparisons, and multivariate ordial Logistic regression was used to explore possible risk factors for sexual and reproductive health score in quartiles. Results: Respondents average score was (51.36±21.61), with the highest score on sexual harassment/sexual abuse (66.45±42.27) and the lowest score on reproduction and physiology (47.67±31.94) and contraception (43.85±26.81). Although significant differences were observed between two study sites, the primary source of knowledge in both sites was schools/teachers, followed by the Internet or friends; the main theme of school sexuality education was puberty development and health care (more than 80%); the most frequently reported topic between respondents and their parents in both sites was interpersonal relationships (more than 55%), and there were significant differences in the reporting rates of secondary vocational school students between the two regions(χ2=28.56，32.02，P<0.05). The results of multivariable Logistic regression analysis showed that residential area, gender, grade, registered residence, number of sexual related topics communicated with parents, number of subjects received from school sexuality education, and reported information sources from classmates/friends, books/magazines/newspapers, internet and communities were related to knowledge level of respondents (OR=1.62, 0.72, 1.20, 1.58, 2.09, 1.17, 1.18, 1.66, 1.62, 1.69, 1.22, P<0.05). Conclusions Vocational students of Shanghai and Shaanxi have poor sexual and reproductive health knowledge and limited access to school and family sexuality education. It is necessary to strengthen sexuality education for secondary vocational school students.

ObjectiveThe detection of RNA single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) is of great importance due to their association with protein expression related to various diseases and drug responses. At present, splintR ligase-assisted methods are important approaches for RNA direct detection, but its specificity will be limited when the fidelity of ligases is not ideal. The aim of this study was to create a method to improve the specificity of splintR ligase for RNA detection. MethodsIn this study, a dual-competitive-padlock-probe (DCPLP) assay without the need for additional enzymes or reactions is proposed to improve specificity of splintR ligase ligation. To verify the method, we employed dual competitive padlock probe-mediated rolling circle amplification (DCPLP-RCA) to genotype the CYP2C9 gene. ResultsThe specificity was well improved through the competition and strand displacement of dual padlock probe, with an 83.26% reduction in nonspecific signal. By detecting synthetic RNA samples, the method demonstrated a dynamic detection range of 10 pmol/L-1 nmol/L. Furthermore, clinical samples were applied to the method to evaluate its performance, and the genotyping results were consistent with those obtained using the qPCR method. ConclusionThis study has successfully established a highly specific direct RNA SNP detection method, and provided a novel avenue for accurate identification of various types of RNAs.

Objective To explore the common features of Chinese ethnic groups.Methods Eight body indexes of 62 ethnic groups in China were analyzed.Results The cluster analysis showed that 52 males and 59 females ethnic groups were grouped into the mixed group dominated by the northern ethnic group and the mixed group dominated by the southern ethnic group.Eight Han ethnic groups were grouped into each group,but no Han group was aggregated.The result of body index classification showed that the main body types of Chinese male population were long trunk,middle chest,wide shoulder,wide pelvis and middle leg.Middle body,wide chest,wide shoulder,wide pelvis and middle leg were the main body types of Chinese female population.This showed that the characteristics of Chinese ethnic groups had obvious consistency.The consistency of Chinese group features was related to its close origin.It should be said that Han nationality played an important role in the process of communication and integration of various ethnic groups in China.In the history of the Han nationality,there had been many large-scale population migration.The southern movement of the northern ethnic minorities into the northern Han and the southward movement of the northern Han into the south promoted the formation of the Southern Han,which made the southern Han and the northern Han had similar body features,and also promoted the southern ethnic minorities into the southern Han.In addition,the Han nationality who moved into minority areas also gradually integrated into minority areas.Conclusion There are obvious commonalities in Chinese ethnic groups.

Objective:To evaluate the quality of critical patient handover practice between emergency room and intensive care unit (ICU) nurses, and to provide a basis for structured handover process.Methods:From March to July 2023, a total of 223 pairs of nurses in emergency room and ICU (including EICU) of 5 Class 3 Grade A general hospitals in Suzhou were selected as the research objects by using cross-sectional survey method and convenience sampling method. Self-designed general information questionnaire and Patient Handover Practice Quality Scale were used to investigate the included 223 pairs of nurses in emergency room and ICU on the current situation of handover time and quality.Results:A total of 211 pairs of nurses were included, including 286 females (67.8%) and 136 males (32.2%). The average age of emergency department nurses was (27.31 ± 2.17) years old, and ICU nurses was (26.96 ± 3.04) years old. The total scores of the patient handover practice Quality Scale for nurses in the emergency room and ICU were (45.25 ± 6.26) and (43.55 ± 7.19) points respectively, and the scores of the information transmission dimension were (20.47 ± 5.43) and (17.66 ± 3.45) points. The scores of common understanding dimension were (7.59 ± 2.31) and (8.58 ± 2.46) points. The scores of work atmosphere dimension were (7.93 ± 2.11) and (8.39 ± 2.29) points. The scores of handover situation dimension were (5.33 ± 1.30) and (5.70 ± 1.53) points, and the differences were statistically significant ( t values were - 6.35-4.22, all P<0.05). There were statistically significant differences in the scores of handover practice quality between emergency room nurses and ICU nurses according to specialization, education background, working years and job category ( t values were - 4.91-2.56, all P<0.05). Conclusions:Emergency room nurses and ICU nurses have different requirements and expectations for handover procedures, so it is necessary to build a structured handover practice framework and carry out personalized handover practice training, in order to achieve the consistency of handover content and improve the quality of critical patients handover practice.

Objectives:We aimed to compare the impact of dissection and re-entry(DR)recanalizing pattern with non-DR on the in-hospital results and prognostic outcomes of patients treated successfully by percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI)of chronic total occlusion(CTO)and examine the benefit of DR in CTO PCI. Methods:A total of 815 consecutive patients with CTO meeting the inclusion criteria in the Department of Cardiology of the First Affiliated Hospital of PLA Air Force Military Medical University from January 2018 to December 2020 were enrolled and divided into DR group(n=239)and non-DR group(n=576)according to whether DR recanalizing pattern was used in the procedure.The clinical characteristics,coronary angiographic characteristics,procedure results,and complications were collected,and the prognostic outcomes within one year after the procedure were observed.Propensity score matching by the clinical and coronary angiographic characteristics was performed and results were compared with 208 matched patients in each group.The endpoints were the major adverse cardiovascular events(MACE)consisting of all-cause death and myocardial infarction,clinically driven target vessel revascularization(TVR)one year after the procedure,and in-hospital outcomes. Results:The mean age of all patients was(60.9±10.9)years old,and 87.4%were male.As compared with the non-DR group,the proportion of blunt cap,ambiguous,calcification,angle＞45°,and diseased landing zone,as well as mean J-CTO score was higher in the DR group(all P＜0.05).The mean stent length and median procedure time were longer in the DR group,median guidewires and consumed contrast volume was also higher in the DR group(all P＜0.001).Incidence of in-hospital death,myocardial infarction,perforation,side branch loss,bleeding of BARC 3rd grade and above,and contrast-related impairment of renal function were similar between the two groups(all P＞0.05).However,peripheral vascular complications occurred more frequently in the DR group(P=0.007).One year after the procedure,the incidence of MACE(2.9%vs.2.4%,log-rank P=0.750)and clinically driven TVR(5.8%vs.3.9%,log-rank P=0.365)as well as all-cause death(2.9%vs.1.0%,log-rank P=0.154)and myocardial infarction(0.5%vs.1.9%,log-rank P=0.184)were similar between the two matched groups.Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed no significant association between DR and MACE(HR=1.129,95%CI:0.427-2.979,P=0.807)and TVR(HR=0.606,95%CI:0.213-1.722,P=0.347).LVEF≤40%(HR=2.775,95%CI:1.137-6.774,P=0.025)and elevated residual SYNTAX score(HR=1.089,95%CI:1.032-1.150,P=0.002)were risk factors for MACE,and diseased landing zone(HR=2.144,95%CI:1.019-4.513,P=0.045),rescued ADR(HR=3.479,95%CI:1.109-10.919,P=0.033),and prolonged procedure time(HR=1.007,95%CI:1.002-1.013,P=0.007)were risk factors for TVR. Conclusions:CTO lesion recanalized with PCI utilizing DR operation pattern was associated with more complex characteristics,more devices and time consumed,and longer stent length,while no significant association was observed between DR operation pattern and MACE and TVR one year after the procedure,as well as in-hospital complication..
