ObjectiveTo evaluate the public health governance capacity in Jiangsu Province and provide an optimized pathway for the construction of a “strong, rich, beautiful, and high-quality” new Jiangsu. MethodsA total of 806 policy documents, 658 public information reports, and 148 research literatures related to public health governance capacity in Jiangsu Province from January 1995 to December 2023 were collected. The status of current public health goverance was assessed based on the evaluation criteria suitable for public health systems, and the strengths and the weaknesses of the system were identified. ResultsThe public health governance capability of Jiangsu Province was scored at 738.3 points, ranking 3rd nationally. Maternal health care and emergency response capacities achieved leading positions nationwide, both ranking 2nd. Jiangsu had exhibited a standardized guidance in the strategic level, a well-established management mechanism, an extensive coverage in information collection, and a scientifically established health targets setting. However, bottlenecks remained, including an unclear division of responsibilities across organizational departments, an insufficient public-health workforce, the absence of a stable growth mechanism for government funding investment, and difficulties in promptly identifying public needs. ConclusionJiangsu’s public-health system demonstrates leading nationally, yet several components remain underdeveloped. Future efforts should consolidate advantages while addressing weaknesses, further diversify content and forms, establish a stable funding increase mechanism, and clarify departmental functions, thereby providing solid health support for realizing the developmental goals of a “strong, rich, beautiful and high-quality” new Jiangsu.

The morphological changes and functions of mitochondria are closely associated with the development and progression of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease （NAFLD）. Dynamin-related protein 1 （Drp1） is one of the primary proteins determining mitochondrial fission， and its activity is strictly controlled to ensure the balance of mitochondrial dynamics according to cellular needs. Drp1 can enhance mitochondrial interactions and mitochondrial fission by promoting the formation of endoplasmic reticulum tubules， and the phosphorylation state and deacetylation of Drp1 can also affect the morphological changes of mitochondria， thereby affecting the status of NAFLD. This article elaborates on the role and mechanism of action of Drp1 in the progression of NAFLD， in order to provide ideas for targeted therapy for NAFLD.

ObjectiveThis study aims to investigate the dynamic changes in general body parameters, blood glucose, and blood lipid profiles in obese cynomolgus monkeys, exploring the correlations among these parameters and providing a reference for research on the obese cynomolgus monkey model. Methods30 normal male cynomolgus monkeys aged 5 - 17 years old (with body mass index < 35 kg/m² and glycated hemoglobin content < 4.50%) and 99 spontaneously obese male cynomolgus monkeys (with body mass index ≥35 kg/m² and glycated hemoglobin content < 4.50%) were selected. Over a period of three years, their abdominal circumference, skinfold thickness, body weight, body mass index, fasting blood glucose, glycated hemoglobin, and four blood lipid indicators were monitored. The correlations between each indicator were analyzed using repeated measurement ANOVA, simple linear regression, and multiple linear regression correlation analysis method. Results Compared to the control group, the obese group exhibited significantly higher levels of abdominal circumference, skinfold thickness, body weight, body mass index, and triglyceride (P＜0.05). In the control group, skinfold thickness increased annually, while other indicators remained stable. Compared with the first year, the obese group showed significantly increased abdominal circumference, skinfold thickness, body weight, body mass index, triglyceride, and fasting blood glucose in the second year(P＜0.05), with this increasing trend persisting in the third year (P＜0.05). In the control group, the obesity incidence rates in the second and third years were 16.67% and 23.33%, respectively, while the prevalence of diabetes remained at 16.67%. In the obese group, the diabetes incidence rates were 29.29% and 44.44% in years 2 and 3, respectively. Among the 11-13 year age group, the incidence rates were 36.36% and 44.68%, while for the group older than 13 years, the rates were 28.13% and 51.35%. Correlation analysis revealed significant associations (P＜0.05) between fasting blood glucose and age, abdominal circumference, skinfold thickness, body weight, and triglyceride in the diabetic monkeys. Conclusion Long-term obesity can lead to the increases in general physical indicators and fasting blood glucose levels in cynomolgus monkeys, and an increase in the incidence of diabetes. In diabetic cynomolgus monkeys caused by obesity, there is a high correlation between their fasting blood glucose and age, weight, abdominal circumference, skinfold thickness, and triglyceride levels, which is of some significance for predicting the occurrence of spontaneous diabetes.

Turning to critical illness is a common stage of various diseases and injuries before death. Patients usually have complex health conditions, while the treatment process involves a wide range of content, along with high requirements for doctor′s professionalism and multi-specialty teamwork, as well as a great demand for time-sensitive treatments. However, this is not matched with critical care professionals and the current state of medical care in China. Telemedicine, which shortens the distance of medical professionals and the gap of disease diagnosis and treatments in various regions through electronic information, can effectively solve the current problem. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a standardized, high-quality visualization telemedicine round system .Therefore, experts have been organized to search domestic and foreign literature on telemedicine round for critically ill patients and to form this consensus based on clinical experiences so as to further improve the level of critical care treatments in regions.

Objective:To explore the clinical application value of serum N-glycan profiles for evaluating the severity of liver tissue inflammation in patients with chronic hepatitis B (CHB).Methods:A total of 221 CHB patients who underwent liver biopsy at Mengchao Hepatobiliary Hospital of Fujian Medical University from January 2018 to December 2020 were retrospectively enrolled. The Scheuer scoring system was used to assess the histological inflammation grade of the liver tissue. Serum N-glycan levels were measured using DNA sequencer-assisted N-glycan fingerprinting (NGFP). Using the upper limit of the alanine aminotransferase (ALT) reference value (40 U/L) as a cutoff, logistic regression models were developed to construct diagnostic models under two scenarios: normal ALT or abnormal ALT. Models based on serum N-glycan levels and serum N-glycan levels combined with routine laboratory indicators, were used to non-invasively evaluation of various pathological grades of liver tissue inflammation in CHB patients. The DeLong test was used to compare the diagnostic efficacy of the models by analyzing the areas under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC). Glycosylation-related gene expression differences associated with varying degrees of liver inflammation were analyzed using the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database.Results:In CHB patients with normal ALT level, the relative abundances of N-glycan structure peak 1 (NGA2F) and peak 2 (NGA2FB) increased with higher liver inflammation grades, while the relative abundance of peak 5 (NA2) decreased ( P<0.05). The AUCs of the HIS-G model (HIS-G A) and its enhanced version (HIS-G A Plus) for identifying significant inflammation and necrosis (≥G2, indicating the initiation of antiviral therapy) were 0.805 (95% CI 0.690-0.899) and 0.904 (95% CI 0.821-0.960), respectively. In CHB patients with ALT>40 U/L, the relative abundances of peaks 1 (NGA2F), 2 (NGA2FB), and 3 (NG1A2F) increased with higher liver inflammation grades, while the relative abundances of peaks 8 (NA3) and 11 (NA4) decreased ( P<0.05). The AUCs of the HIS-G model (HIS-G B) and its enhanced version (HIS-G B Plus) for identifying significant inflammation (≥G2) were 0.810 (95% CI 0.727-0.889) and 0.838 (95% CI 0.754-0.901), respectively. With increasing liver inflammation grades, the expression levels of four glycosyltransferase genes (CHST4, FUT8, SLC51B, and ST8SIA4) were significantly upregulated ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Serum N-glycan biomarker models can be used to assist in evaluating the severity of liver tissue inflammation in CHB patients with both normal and abnormal ALT levels.

Objective This study aimed to adapt the data-driven Palliative Care Outcomes Collaboration(PCOC)model to the local context and evaluate its feasibility and preliminary effectiveness in a palliative care unit in China,with the goal of informing its broader integration into national palliative care practice.Methods Based on international experience,a localized implementation protocol for the PCOC model was developed through expert con-sultations and a pilot study.The protocol incorporated key elements including organizational and managerial sup-port,team training and capacity building,information system integration,supervision and feedback mechanisms,pro-cess optimization,and data-driven decision-making.From June to December 2023,the protocol was piloted in the palliative care unit of a tertiary cancer hospital in Changsha,China.Implementation outcomes were assessed by comparing patients' urgent care response rates,symptom stability rates,and symptom improvement rates between the first 1～3 months and 4～6 months after implementation.Results During the study period,a total of 355 inpatients were enrolled,with the PCOC assessment achieving full coverage(100％)and a completion rate of 97.78％.There was no statistically significant difference in the urgent needs response rate between the first 1～3 months and the 4～6 months after the implementation of the PCOC model(P=0.533).However,compared to the first 1～3 months af-ter implementation,patients in the 4～6 months period showed significantly higher symptom stability rates for pain,psychological/spiritual issues,and family/caregiver problems,as well as a higher improvement rate for pain(P＜0.05).Conclusion The localized PCOC implementation protocol facilitates standardized assessment and symptom manage-ment,and its application can enhance the quality of palliative care.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of Jiawei Dihuang Decoction in the treatment of vascular dementia(VD);To explore its mechanism and the VD susceptibility genesby using whole exome sequencing.Methods A total of 75 patients with VD who were hospitalized or received outpatient treatment at The Second Affiliated Hospital of Shaanxi University of Chinese Medicine were included.They were divided into the control group(37 cases,treated with conventional Western medicine)and the experimental group(38 cases,treated with conventional Western medicine+Jiawei Dihuang Decoction)using random number table method.The treatment course was 3 months.The general data,TCM syndrome scores,MMSE scores,ADL scores,Blessed scores and adverse reactions of the two groups were compared.Peripheral blood samples from 36 patients with kidney-yin deficiency type VD were selected for whole exome sequencing.Susceptible genes were screened,and the targets of Jiawei Dihuang Decoction were analyzed by network pharmacology.A"drug-gene"network was constructed,and key pathways were enriched.Results There was no statistical significance in the baseline data between the two groups(P>0.05),and they were comparable.Compared with before treatment,the MMSE scores of patients in both groups significantly increased after treatment,while TCM syndrome scores and ADL scores significantly decreased(P<0.05).Compared with the control group,the TCM syndrome scores,MMSE scores,ADL scores and clinical efficacy of the experimental group were significantly better than those of the control group(P<0.05).Moreover,the Blessed score showed that the experimental group had more advantages in improving the patients'living ability and daily habits(P<0.05).No adverse reactions were observed in both groups during the treatment period.A total of 1 250 744 single nucleotide polymorphism(SNP)loci and 37 314 insertion and deletion(InDel)loci were detected by whole exome sequencing.After screening,3 041 VD susceptibility genes were obtained.It was found that they were involved in biological processes such as the response to nutrient levels,positive regulation of the MAPK cascade,vascular processes in the circulatory system,the response to nutrients,etc.And enriched in PI3K-Akt,cholinergic/glutamatergic synapses,lipid metabolism and atherosclerosis pathways.The potential targets of 854 of Jiawei Dihuang Decoction were intersected with the susceptibility genes to obtain 353 common targets.The top 10 key genes were analyzed and found to be involved in positive regulation of cytosine-serine phosphorylation,miRNA-mediated gene silencing regulation,and the response of cells to decreased oxygen levels,etc.They were enriched in PI3K-Akt,lipid and atherosclerosis signaling pathways.Conclusion Jiawei Dihuang Decoction can alleviate the symptoms of patients with VD,protect cognitive function,enhance their ability of daily living,and has good safety profile.Its mechanism may involve regulating susceptibility genes through PI3K-Akt signaling pathway and lipid atherosclerosis signaling pathway,and improving lipid metabolism,inflammatory response and oxidative stress.

Objective:To determine the best scoring system for assessing the severity of perioperative aortic dissection.Methods:All data were obtained from the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care-Ⅳ(MIMIC-Ⅳ) database in the United States. The predictive value of the Acute Physiology Score Ⅲ(APS Ⅲ), Oxford Acute Severity of Illness Score (OASIS), Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA), Simplified Acute Physiology Score Ⅱ(SAPS Ⅱ), and Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI) scoring systems were evaluated using the receiver operating characteristic ( ROC) curve. The area under the curve ( AUC) was used to determine the best predictive score, and the ideal cutoff value of the score was calculated based on the Youden index. Patients were divided into high and low groups according to the cutoff value. The Kaplan- Meier curve was used to show the impact on the survival rate of patients with aortic dissection. Results:ROC curve analysis showed that APS Ⅲ( AUC: 0.803, 95% CI: 0.721-0.885) was superior to SAPS Ⅱ( AUC: 0.767, 95% CI: 0.654-0.880), OASIS( AUC: 0.760, 95% CI: 0.635-0.885), SOFA( AUC: 0.753, 95% CI: 0.649-0.857), and CCI( AUC: 0.670, 95% CI: 0.524-0.817) in assessing in-hospital mortality. Based on the ROC curve and the Youden index calculation, the ideal cutoff value of the APS Ⅲ score was 57.5. Kaplan- Meier survival analysis showed that patients in the high group of APS Ⅲ had a shorter 28-day survival time. Patients in the high group of APS Ⅲ had a higher incidence of postoperative complications, and correlation analysis showed that patients in the high group of APS Ⅲ had a longer hospital stay. Conclusion:The APS Ⅲ scoring system is more valuable in predicting the 28-day mortality and prognosis of patients with aortic dissection.

Objective:To analyze the clinical characteristics of the Chikungunya fever outbreak in Shunde District, Foshan City, Guangdong Province in July 2025 and the risk factors associated with delayed viral RNA clearance.Methods:A total of 562 patients with Chikungunya fever admitted to three designated hospitals in Shunde District from July 10 to 30, 2025 were enrolled. Demographic data, clinical manifestations, and laboratory findings were collected. Patients were categorized into four age groups including minors (<18 years), young adults (18 to 39 years), middle-aged adults (40 to 64 years) and elderly adults (≥65 years). The differences of clinical characteristics among these age groups were analyzed. Intergroup comparisons were performed using chi-square test, one-way analysis of variance, or Kruskal-Wallis H test. Pairwise comparisons between groups were conducted using the Bonferroni or Games-Howell or Dunn method. Binary logistic regression was employed to analyze risk factors associated with delayed viral RNA clearance (>7 days). Results:The mean age of the 562 enrolled Chikungunya fever patients was (44.8±21.3) years. Fever, arthralgia and rash were the three core symptoms, with incidence rates of 87.5% (492/562), 88.4%(497/562) and 69.6%(391/562), respectively. At discharge, only 54.1%(304/562) of patients achieved complete symptom resolution, while 26.5%(149/562) still had arthralgia and 36.1%(203/562) had residual rash. Significant differences were observed among age groups in the incidence of fever ( χ2=9.43, P=0.024), peak body temperature ( F=6.54, P<0.001), incidence of arthralgia ( χ2=26.89, P<0.001), duration of arthralgia ( F=12.68, P=0.001), incidence of rash ( χ2=68.99, P<0.001), rate of residual rash at discharge ( χ2=32.37, P<0.001), lymphocyte count ( F=12.94, P<0.001), platelet count ( F=14.95, P<0.001), and C-reactive protein levels (CRP) ( H=94.18, P<0.001). Further pairwise comparisons revealed that compared to the middle-aged and elderly groups, the minor group had a higher incidence of fever and a lower incidence of arthralgia, and the duration of arthralgia was shorter than the elderly group (all P<0.008 3). Compared with the other three groups, the elderly group had lower incidence and residual rate of rash, and lower platelet counts (all P<0.008 3), and higher levels of CRP (all P<0.05). The elderly group had lower lymphocyte counts compared to the minor and young adult groups (both P<0.05). Significant differences were found among age groups in the time to viral RNA clearance ( F=5.77, P=0.003) and length of hospital stay ( F=11.64, P<0.001), with the elderly group having significantly longer duration for both compared to the other three groups (all P<0.05). Multivariate analysis showed that advanced age (odds ratio ( OR)=1.049, 95% confidence interval ( CI) 1.015 to 1.083), longer duration of fever ( OR=1.529, 95% CI 1.086 to 2.155) and longer duration of arthralgia ( OR=1.927, 95% CI 1.318 to 2.817) were independent risk factors for delayed viral RNA clearance (all P<0.05). Conclusions:Patients with Chikungunya fever in Shunde District primarily present with fever, arthralgia and rash. The incidence and characteristics of these three core symptoms show age-related variations. Elderly patients and those with longer durations of fever or arthralgia are more likely to experience delayed viral clearance.

Objective To evaluate the predictive value of a nomogram model developed by integrating clinical and ultrasound multiparameters for HER-2-positive breast cancer.Methods This study retrospectively enrolled 343 patients with pathologically confirmed breast cancer from three medical centers and randomly divided them into training and validation cohorts.Univariate analysis,LASSO regression,and multivariate logistic regres-sion were conducted on the training set to identify independent prognostic factors and construct a nomogram model.Bootstrap resampling with 1000 iterations was performed to evaluate the model's robustness.Model calibration was assessed using calibration curves and the Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness-of-fit test.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curves were generated to evaluate model discrimination,and the area under the curve(AUC)along with other performance metrics were calculated.Decision curve analysis was employed to assess the clinical utility of the model,and the validation cohort was used for external validation.Results Univariate,LASSO,and multivariate regression analyses demonstrated that age,TTP(time to peak),and the presence of a filling defect sign were independent predictors of HER-2-positive breast cancer(all P<0.05).Based on these independent predictors,a nomogram model was constructed.Bootstrap validation with 1,000 resamples indicated that the model's predictive performance was stable.The Hosmer-Lemeshow test confirmed satisfactory model calibration,while the calibration curve illustrated accurate prediction probabilities.The area under the curve(AUC)for the training set was 0.863(95%CI:0.806～0.920),and for the validation set,it was 0.846(95%CI:0.764～0.929),indicating strong discriminative and generalization capabilities.Additionally,the clinical decision curve analysis demonstrated favor-able clinical utility.Conclusion A nomogram model integrating clinical and multimodal ultrasound parameters demonstrates potential utility in predicting HER-2-positive breast cancer.
