Summary: The study found a high prevalence of prenatal depression in Chinese pregnant women, which is significantly associated with prenatal anxiety, sleep disorders, and maternal-fetal attachment. Prenatal education and higher marital satisfaction are protective factors against prenatal depression, while anxiety and sleep disorders are risk factors. Prenatal depression is negatively correlated with the quality of maternal-fetal attachment, but positively correlated with the intensity.

Summary: Suicide, as a form of expressing suicidal ideation, has been present throughout history in specific social and cultural contexts. However, in recent decades, the prevalence of suicide, particularly among young people in developed countries, has increased due to factors such as societal transitions and changing values. This study aims to identify the predictors of suicidal ideation among university students in Spain, using a quantitative approach and a large sample size (n = 1472). The findings highlight the importance of universities in implementing preventive measures, early detection, and treatment of suicidal ideation, in collaboration with healthcare systems to reduce suicide rates within the university community.

Summary: Research suggests that TSH and lipid levels are associated with suicide attempts in adolescents with major depressive disorder (MDD). Understanding this relationship can help us better identify suicide risks in adolescents with MDD. The study found that higher CES-D scores, TSH levels, and LDL-C levels were significantly associated with suicide attempts. Ordinary family relationships were also found to increase the likelihood of suicide attempts.

Summary: In this paper, we investigate the secure computation offloading in the Marine Internet of Things (M-IoT) with the assistance of unmanned surface vehicles (USVs) subject to the eavesdropping attack. We optimize the USVs' positions, the duration of data uploading, the workload offloaded by the high altitude platform (HAP), the HAP's transmission power, and the USVs' jamming signal power to minimize the system-wise energy consumption for completing the total workloads under the latency constraint. Our proposed algorithms, PAS-Algorithm and CASE-Algorithm, effectively optimize the variables and provide suboptimal solutions to the joint optimization problem, validating their accuracy and performance compared with benchmark algorithms.

Summary: Iron is crucial for biological processes, but excessive iron can be toxic. In patients with recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL), low serum iron and iron deposition in the decidua were simultaneously observed. Mice fed with a low-iron diet also showed iron deposition in the decidua and adverse pregnancy outcomes. Decreased expression of ferroportin, an iron exporter, in decidual stromal cells (DSCs) may explain the local iron deposition. Iron supplementation reduced iron deposition and improved pregnancy outcomes. Excessive iron led to ferroptosis of DSCs, but supplementation of glutathione (GSH) and cystine reduced cell death. Ferroptosis inhibitors also attenuated DSC ferroptosis and reversed embryo loss, indicating a potential therapeutic target for RPL patients.

Summary: The study aimed to explore the association between aspirin exposure before ICU admission and the clinical outcomes of Sepsis-associated acute respiratory failure (S-ARF) patients. The findings showed that pre-ICU aspirin exposure was associated with decreased 28-day mortality, 60-day mortality, and hospital mortality in S-ARF patients, except for certain subgroups. The protective effect of aspirin may be mediated by specific biomarkers. These results have important implications for clinical treatment and patient prognosis.

Summary: The IL-33/ST2 axis exists in human amnion fibroblasts and is activated during both term and preterm labor. Activation of this axis leads to the production of inflammatory factors relevant to parturition and results in preterm birth. Targeting the IL-33/ST2 axis may have potential value in the treatment of preterm birth.

Summary: This study investigates the use of MRI, MRS, and serum metabolomics to differentiate between pre-eclampsia (PE) and gestational hypertension (GH). Increased T1 signal intensity index (T1SI), lactate/creatine (Lac/Cr), and glutamine and glutamate (Glx)/Cr, as well as decreased apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) value and myo-inositol (mI)/Cr, were found in PE patients. Combination of Lac/Cr, Glx/Cr, and mI/Cr showed the highest differentiating performance. Serum metabolomics analysis identified 12 differential metabolites associated with various metabolic pathways. MRS is expected to be a noninvasive and effective tool for monitoring GH patients to avoid the development of PE.
