Prevalence and influencing factors of depressive symptoms among primary and middle school students in Xihu District / 预防医学

Abstract@#Objective To investigate the prevalence and influencing factors of depressive symptoms among primary and middle school students in Xihu District, Hangzhou City, so as to provide insights into depression control among primary and middle school students. @*Methods@# Students were sampled from two primary schools, two junior high schools, two ordinary high schools and one vocational high school in Xihu District using a stratified cluster random sampling method from September to November, 2021. Participants' demographics, diet, exercise, sleep and campus bullying were collected using questionnaire surveys. The depressive symptoms were evaluated using the Chinese version of the Center for Epidemiologic Studies-Depression Scale (CES-D), and factors affecting the depressive symptoms were identified among primary and middle school students using a multivariable logistic regression model.@* Results@# A total of 1 518 students were investigated, including 518 primary school students (34.12%), 363 junior high school students (23.91%), 463 ordinary high school students (30.50%) and 174 vocational high school students (11.46%). Of all participants, there were 805 males (53.03%). The prevalence of depressive symptoms was 38.87% among the participants, and was 36.10%, 42.42%, 42.33% and 30.46% among primary school, junior high school, ordinary high school and vocational high school students, respectively. The multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that gender (OR=1.601, 95%CI: 1.289-1.989), type of school (junior high school, OR=1.299, 95%CI: 0.974-1.734; ordinary high school, OR=1.351, 95%CI: 1.025-1.780; vocational high school, OR=0.862, 95%CI: 0.585-1.272), frequency of fresh vegetable intake (less than once daily, OR=0.454, 95%CI: 0.304-0.679; once and more daily, OR=0.359, 95%CI: 0.235-0.548), duration spent on the internet (0.5 to 1 h daily, OR=1.447, 95%CI: 1.044-2.006; 1 h and longer daily, OR=1.456, 95%CI: 1.072-1.978), sufficient sleep (OR=0.525, 95%CI: 0.371-0.744), suffering from campus bullying (OR=1.992, 95%CI: 1.491-2.661) were associated with the development of depressive symptoms. @*Conclusions@# The prevalence of depressive symptoms is high among primary and middle school students in Xihu District. Gender, type of school, dietary behaviors, sleep duration and campus bullying are factors affecting the development of depressive symptoms.

Candesartan early or late treatment reduced advanced glycation end-products accumulation and the receptor for AGE (RAGE) expression in type 2 diabetic KK/Ta mice kidney / 中国医师杂志

Objective The effects of candesartan,an angiotensin Ⅱ type 1 receptor blocker (ARB) were investigated on advanced glycation end-products accumulation and the receptor for AGE (RAGE) expression in type 2 diabetic KK/Ta mouse kidneys.MethodsKK/Ta mice(n=72)were random divided into three groups(n=24) and it was treated with candesartan [4 mg/(kg·d)] or vehicle from 6 or 12 to 28 weeks of age.BALB/c mice(n=24) treated with vehicle were used as controls.Body weight,blood pressure,blood glucose,urinary microalbumin,urinary creatinine and serum creatinine were measured every four weeks.At 28 weeks,renal expressions of carboxymethyllysine and RAGE were evaluated by immunohistochemistry and/or competitive RT-PCR.Results KK/Ta mice developed high body weight,high blood glucose,and high urinary microalbumin/creatinine ratio in KK/Ta mice at 28 weeks of age,and it was significantly higher than that of BALB/c mice [(427.49±89.37)mg/g vs (9.54±3.25)mg/g,P＜0.01 ].Protein and mRNA expressions of RAGE were upregulated in KK/Ta kidneys with increased immunostaining intensities of carboxymethyllysine.Candesartan treatment has markedly reduced urinary microalbumin/creatinine ratio [Early treatment group (32.18±9.41)mg/g,Late treatment group (53.20±7.26)mg/g,P＜0.01 ].Treatment with candesartan down-regulated the protein and mRNA expressions of RAGE and reduced the accumulation of carboxymethyllysine.There were no significant differences between the two treatment groups (from 6 or 12 weeks).ConclusionsThe results suggest that candesartan,an ARB,reduces advanced glycation end-products accumulation and subsequent albuminuria by down-regulating RAGE expression in type 2 diabetic KK/Ta mouse kidneys.

The glomerular microRNA expression profile in spontaneous type 2 diabetes KKAy mice and the effect of losartan treatment / 中华肾脏病杂志

Objective To identify susceptible miRNAs for the pathogenesis of diabetic nephropathy (DN) and the molecular targets of losartan treatment. Methods The 8-week age KKAy mice were divided into losartan treatment group (10 mg· kg-1· d-1) and non-treatment group,C57BL/6 mice were used as the control group.At age of 20 weeks,body weight,random blood glucose,urinary albumin and urinary creatinine were tested,and kidney morphology was observed.Glomeroli were separated by magnetic beads perfusion,and total RNA were extracted.MiRNAs expression profiles were analyzed by the Affymetrix GeneChip miRNAs arrays. Results At age of 20 weeks,KKAy mice developed higher body weight,higher blood glucose and higher urinary microalbumin creatinine ratio than C57BL/6 mice,and the glomerular basement membrane thickened,mesangial matrix widened.Losartan treatment markedly improved the level of urinary albumin creatinine ratio [(539.71±100.23) mg/g vs (728±177.19) mg/g,P＜0.05)] and pathological lesion of KKAy mice.The miRNA array analysis showed that there were 22 miRNAs differentially expressed between KKAy non-treatment mice and C57BL/6 mice glomeruli at age of 20 weeks.Among them,10 miRNAs were up-regulated,and 12 miRNAs were down-regulated.The expression of 4 miRNAs was down-regulated in glumeruli of KKAy mice treated by losartan compared with that of non-treatment mice.The expressions of miRNA-503 and miRNA-181d were significantly up-regulated in the glumeruli of KKAy mice and inhibited by losartan treatment, Conclusion The expressions of miRNA-503 and miRNA-181d are significantly up-regulated in the glumeruli of KKAy mice and inhibited by losartan treatment,which may be new therapeutic targets of DN.
