Physical activity has a high prevention potential in adolescents. This study investigated the relations between physical activity and intention, autonomous regulation, and planning. We hypothesized that planning mediates the relationship between intention and behavior and that this mediation should depend on the level of autonomous regulation. Stratified randomization sampling method was administered to assemble a sample of N = 534 students among two schools in China. To test the hypothesis, autonomous regulation, intention, and physical activity were assessed at baseline as well as planning and follow-up physical activity four weeks after the pretest. A moderated mediation model confirmed that planning mediated the intention-behavior relation with the effect of planning being moderated by autonomous regulation. Study results demonstrated that autonomous regulation facilitated the translation of intention into behavior change via planning. To promote physical activity among adolescents, interventions targeting planning and autonomous regulation might facilitate successful translation of intentions into behavior change.

[A comparative study of autonomous communities' legislation on accreditation of Research Ethics Committees as part of the principle of good governance].

Objective: Following a consultation received at the Legal Clinic of the University of Alcalá, it was necessary to determine whether or not a Research Ethics Committee was accredited. This led us to consider the need to determine whether the autonomous communities had reformed their legislation to establish the accreditation procedure for Research Ethics Committees, therefore adapting their legislation to Act 14/2007.
Methods: An analysis of the european, national and regional legislation regulating biomedical research in Spain was carried out to determine what the accreditation procedure for Research Ethics Committees was like in each autonomous community and whether it conformed to the provisions of Act 14/2007.

Background: Damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) induced by immunogenic cell death (ICD) may be useful for the immunotherapy to patients undergoing pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). The aim of this study is to predict the prognosis and immunotherapy responsiveness of PDAC patients using DAMPs-related genes.
Methods: K-means analysis was used to identify the DAMPs-related subtypes of 175 PDAC cases.

Wound healing is a highly coordinated process driven by intricate molecular signaling and dynamic interactions between diverse cell types. Nod-like receptor pyrin domain-containing protein 3 (NLRP3) has been implicated in the regulation of inflammation and tissue repair; however, its specific role in skin wound healing remains unclear. This study highlights the pivotal role of NLRP3 in effective skin wound healing, as demonstrated by delayed wound closure and altered cellular and molecular responses in NLRP3-deficient (NLRP3) mice.

Osteoarthritis is the most prevalent form of arthritis, and a leading cause of pain and long-term disability. Dysregulation of redox homeostasis is a key feature in the pathological progression of osteoarthritis that amplifies the inflammatory response, aggravates synovitis and accelerates cartilage degradation. Herein, a hemin and chitosan-mediated antioxidant gel inducing ROS conversion (hc-MAGIC) was constructed to targeting oxidative stress for osteoarthritis treatment.
