OBJECTIVE: To introduce the etiology and prevention of bone cement implantation syndrome (BCIS). METHODS: The literature about BCIS at home and abroad in recent years was extensively reviewed, and the incidence, clinical manifestations, etiology, and prevention of BCIS were summarized and analyzed. RESULTS: The clinical manifestations of BCIS are diverse. The etiology of BCIS is not completely clarified, and it may be related to circulating methyl methacrylate-mediated model, embolus-mediated model, histamine release and hypersensitivity response, complement activation and multimodal model. BCIS prevention begins with the identification of high-risk patients in preoperative evaluation and communication between surgeon and anesthesiologist about the choice of implant type, surgical procedure, and technique to minimize the risk of cardiovascular complications in high-risk patients with multiple or severe risk factors or comorbidities. Preoperative assessment and optimization of a patient's cardiovascular reserve is also critical to prevent BCIS. CONCLUSION BCIS is a possible complication after hip joint arthroplasty, and its pathogenesis needs to be further research in order to provide new ideas for prevention and treatment.

OBJECTIVES: To analyze the disease burden of melanoma among middle-aged and elderly populations in China, and to predict the future trend. METHODS: Data from the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) 2021 were utilized to collect incidence and mortality rates of melanoma, disability-adjusted life years (DALYs), and corresponding age crude rates among the middle-aged and elderly population in China during 1990 and 2021. Additionally, the estimated annual percentage change (EAPC) was employed to assess the temporal trends. Age-period-cohort (APC) and Bayesian age-period-cohort (BAPC) models were utilized to compute age, period, and cohort effects on incidence and mortality rates of melanoma, as well as to predict future trends up to 2035. RESULTS: During 1990-2021, the incidence rate of melanoma for males was higher than that for females among the middle-aged and elderly population in China, and the overall incidence rate increased annually with an EAPC of 2.13 (1.90-2.36), while the overall mortality rate and DALY rate showed a declining trend with an EAPC of －0.28 (－0.41-－0.15) and －0.54 (－0.68-－0.41), respectively. The results of the APC model analysis revealed that age effects on both incidence and mortality rates of melanoma in China's middle-aged and elderly population were significant, with both increasing with age. Period and cohort effects showed an upward trend for incidence rates but a downward trend for mortality rates. Moreover, the period and cohort effects for mortality rates were not significant among females. In the BAPC prediction model, the number of incidences of melanoma in middle-aged and elderly people in China would increase dramatically. By 2035, the number of incidence cases is expected to reach approximately 9600 (males) and 10 300 (females), corresponding to an incidence rate of 2.66/10⁵ and 2.67/10⁵, respectively. The number of deaths is projected to be about 2600 (males) and 3500 (females) by 2035, corresponding to a mortality rate of 0.72/10⁵ and 0.91/10⁵, respectively. CONCLUSIONS The disease burden of melanoma among the middle-aged and elderly population in China remains substantial and is expected to increase over the next decade.

Methods: Data of notifiable infectious disease cases in Huzhou City from 2005 to 2023 were collected from the Infectious Disease Report Information System of Chinese Disease Prevention and Control Information System. Trends in incidence were analyzed using annual percent change (APC) and average annual percent change (AAPC). The population distribution and seasonal characteristics were descriptively analyzed. Results: From 2005 to 2023, a total of 504 283 cases of notifiable infectious diseases were reported in Huzhou City, with an annual crude incidence rate of 892.65/105 and a standardized incidence rate of 989.21/105. The incidence rate of notifiable infectious diseases in Huzhou City showed an upward trend (AAPC=8.886%, P<0.05), of which there was an obvious upward trend from 2021 to 2023 (APC=95.996%, P<0.05). After the removal of COVID-19 incidence, the incidence trend was basically unchanged (AAPC=7.970%, P<0.05). From 2005 to 2023, the incidence rate of class A and B notifiable infectious diseases showed no obvious trend (P>0.05), and the incidence rate of class A and B respiratory infectious diseases showed an upward trend (AAPC=6.958%, P<0.05). After the removal of COVID-19 incidence, the two showed a downward trend (AAPC=-7.680% and -8.660%, both P<0.05). The incidence rate of class A and class B intestinal infectious diseases, blood-borne and sexually transmitted infectious diseases showed a downward trend (AAPC=-14.849% and -5.977%, both P<0.05), while the incidence rates of natural and insect-borne infectious diseases did not show a significant trend (P>0.05). The overall incidence rate of class C infectious diseases showed an upward trend (AAPC=13.058%, P<0.05). The incidence rate ratio (IRR) of notifiable infectious diseases between males and females was 1.26 (95%CI: 1.25-1.27). A total of 204 043 cases under 10 years were reported, accounting for 40.46%. The peak incidence of class A and B respiratory infectious diseases was in January, May and June, while that of class A and B intestinal infectious diseases was from June to October. The peak incidence of class C respiratory infectious diseases was in January, March, April and December, while that of class C intestinal infectious diseases was from May to August and from November to December. Conclusions The incidence rate of notifiable infectious diseases in Huzhou City showed an upward trend from 2005 to 2023, which was more obvious from 2021 to 2023. Men and children under 10 years were the high-risk population. The incidence of respiratory and intestinal infectious diseases had obvious seasonal characteristics.

Objective : To understand the epidemiological characteristics of notifiable respiratory infectious diseases in Huzhou City, Zhejiang Province from 2017 to 2022, so as to provide insights into formulation of respiratory infectious disease prevention and control strategies. Methods: The data pertaining to notifiable respiratory infectious disease in Huzhou City from 2017 to 2022 were collected through the Infectious Disease Report Information System of Chinese Disease Prevention and Control Information System. Epidemiological characteristics of notifiable respiratory infectious disease was analyzed using a descriptive epidemiological method. : Results Conclusions: A total of 31 314 cases of notifiable respiratory infectious diseases were reported in Huzhou City from 2017 to 2022, with an average annual reported incidence of 169.12/105. The reported incidence of notifiable respiratory infectious diseases appeared a tendency towards a rise in Huzhou City from 2017 to 2022 (P<0.05). The top six reported diseases in terms of case numbers were influenza (20 048 cases), tuberculosis (6 920 cases), COVID-19 (1 893 cases), mumps (1 413 cases), pertussis (475 cases) and scarlet fever (442 cases), accounting for 99.61% of the total cases. The incidence of influenza, COVID-19 and pertussis showed a tendency towards a rise, the incidence of mumps and tuberculosis showed a tendency towards a decline (all P<0.05), and scarlet fever remained at a low-level incidence (P>0.05). Respiratory infectious diseases were mainly reported in winter (January, February and December), with 14 644 cases accounting for 46.77%. There were 15 068 cases reported in schools and kindergartens, accounting for 48.12%. The incidence showed a U-shaped variation with age, with the highest incidence in residents at ages of 10 years and below (987.68/105), and showing a tendency towards a rise in residents at ages of 60 years and above. The incidence of respiratory infectious diseases in Huzhou City from 2017 to 2022 increased significantly. Influenza, tuberculosis, COVID-19, mumps and pertussis are key notifiable respiratory infectious diseases. Residents at ages of 10 years and below and 60 years and above should be given a high priority for respiratory infectious disease control.

Objective To explore the occurrence and influencing factors of delayed cerebral ischemia(DCI)after clipping surgery in patients with anterior circulation aneurysms.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on 248 patients with anterior circulation aneurysms who underwent clipping surgery in our hospital from May 2018 to May 2023.The patients were divided into the DCI group and the non-DCI group based on the occurrence of DCI after surgery.A1∶1 propensity score matching method was used to match 54 patients in the DCI group with 54 patients in the non-DCI group.The random forest algorithm was employed to rank the importance of factors influencing DCI.Multivariable Logistic regression analysis was performed to identify independent risk factors for DCI,and the E-value method was used to assess the sensitivity of model parameters.A DCI risk prediction model was constructed,and the discriminative ability and accuracy of the model were evaluated using ROC curve and Hosmer-Lemeshow test.Results After matching,no statistically significant differences were observed between the two groups in terms of gender,age,body mass index(BMI),smoking history,alcohol consumption,history of cerebral infarction,history of subarachnoid hemorrhage,aneurysm location,and maximum aneurysm diameter(all P＞0.05).Compared to the non-DCI group,the DCI group had a higher proportion of modified Fisher grade 3-4 and Hunt-Hess grade IV patients,higher levels of D-dimer(D-D),total bilirubin(TBIL),TNF-α,high-sensitivity C-reactive protein(hs-CRP),IL-6,and glutamate,and lower levels of immunoglobulin(Ig)G,IgM,and IgA(all P＜0.05).The random forest analysis showed that including Hunt-Hess grade,modified Fisher grade,D-D,glutamate,TB1L,IgA,and IL-6 in the multivariable regression analysis achieved the lowest out-of-bag error rate.Multivariable analysis revealed that Hunt-Hess grade Ⅳ,modified Fisher grade 3-4,D-D,glutamate,TBIL were independent risk factors for DCI,while IgA was a protective factor(all P＜0.05).The risk prediction equation was as follows:P=1/[1+e(3.142+1.307 Hunt-Hess grade+1.086 modified Fisher grade+0.976 D-D+0.748 glutamate+0.552 TBIL-0.524 IgA+0.487 IL-6)].A patient with a risk probability P＞0.65 was considered to have a postoperative occurrence of DCI.The ROC curve results showed that after internal validation,the AUC of the model was 0.869(95％CI:0.836-0.897),with sensitivity and specificity of 81.08％and 97.34％,respectively,indicating good discrimination of the model.The Hosmer-Lemeshow test results showed that after internal validation,the goodness of fit of the model wasx2=4.219,P=0.561,indicating good fit of the model.Conclusions Hunt-Hess grade Ⅳ,modified Fisher grade 3-4,D-D,glutamate,TBIL,and IL-6 are identified as independent risk factors for DCI,while IgA is a protective factor.The predictive model constructed using these factors demonstrates high accuracy and discriminative ability.A risk probability P＞0.65 indicates a postoperative occurrence of DCI in patients.

OBJECTIVE: To review the role of dendritic cells (DC) in immune metabolism of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). METHODS: Literature on the role of DC in the immune metabolism of RA was extensively reviewed in recent years, and the metabolic characteristics of RA, the role of DC in RA, the correlation between the immune metabolism of DC and pathogenesis of RA, and the treatment were summarized and analyzed. RESULTS: DC promotes the progression of RA under hypoxia, increased glycolysis, inhibition of oxidative phosphorylation, and decreased lipid metabolism. Moreover, many DCs (especially conventional DC and monocyte-derived DC) have different functions and phenotypic characteristics in RA, which are closely related to the occurrence and development of RA. CONCLUSION DC plays an important role in the immune metabolism of RA, and immunometabolism therapy based on DC can provide targeted therapy for the treatment of RA.

BACKGROUND: Vaccination has been shown effective in controlling the global coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic and reducing severe cases. This study was to assess the flare and change in disease activity after COVID-19 vaccination in patients with stable rheumatoid arthritis (RA). METHODS: A prospective cohort of RA patients in remission or with low disease activity was divided into a vaccination group and a non-vaccination group based on their COVID-19 vaccination status. Each of them was examined every 3 to 6 months. In the vaccination group, disease activity was compared before and after vaccination. The rates of flare defined as disease activity scores based on 28-joint count (DAS28) >3.2 with ΔDAS28 ≥0.6 were compared between vaccination and non-vaccination groups. RESULTS: A total of 202 eligible RA patients were enrolled. Of these, 98 patients received no vaccine shot (non-vaccination group), and 104 patients received two doses of vaccine (vaccination group). The median time interval from pre-vaccination visit to the first immunization and from the second dose of vaccine to post-vaccination visit was 67 days and 83 days, respectively. The disease activity scores at pre-vaccination and post-vaccination visits in the vaccination group patients were similar. At enrollment, gender, RA disease course, seropositivity, and disease activity were comparable across the two groups. Flare was observed in five (4.8%) of the vaccination group patients and nine (9.2%) of the non-vaccination group patients at post-vaccination assessment ( P  = 0.221). In terms of safety, 29 (27.9%) patients experienced adverse events (AEs) after vaccination. No serious AEs occurred. CONCLUSIONS COVID-19 vaccinations had no significant effect on disease activity or risk of flare in RA patients in remission or with low disease activity. Patients with stable RA should be encouraged to receive the COVID-19 vaccination.

Objective To investigate the resistance level of adult Aedes albopictus to commonly used insecticides in urban areas of Huzhou City， and analyze the trend of insecticide resistance. Methods Aedes albopictus larvae were collected from different urban areas of Huzhou City in 2019 and 2020. The larvae were reared to adults for determining resistance using the WHO standard test kits by contact tube method. Results The mortality was 97.06%‒100.00% in adult Aedes albopictus mosquitoes exposed to 0.4% beta-cypermethrin， 0.1% deltamethrin， 0.5% malathion， 0.05% propoxur and 3% permethrin in 2019. While the adult mosquitoes exposed to 0.4% beta Cypermethrin， 0.08% beta Cypermethrin， 0.03% deltamethrin， 0.4% permethrin， 0.5% malathion and 0.02% propoxur in 2020， the adjusted mortality were 98.58%， 89.09%， 85.64%， 91.34%， 91.43% and 100% respectively . When the insecticide doses on medicated paper were high， the Huzhou populations of Aedes albopictus were sensitive to beta-cypermethrin， deltamethrin， malathion and propoxur， and showed suspected resistance to permethrin. While the Aedes albopictus were exposed to low testing dose， they showed suspected resistance to beta-cypermethrin， deltamethrin， permethrin and malathion， but remained to be sensitive to propoxur. Conclusion The adult Aedes albopictus in Huzhou City from 2019 to 2020 was still sensitive to propoxur， but their resistance to malathion changes from sensitive to resistant. When the contact tube method is used for insecticide resistance， it is suggested that the accurate diagnostic dose should be obtained first before conducting further insecticide resistance tests.

Objective:To explore the influence of human amniotic mesenchymal stem cells (hAMSCs) on the in vivo and in vitro regulation of macrophage phenotypes and inflammatory factors associated with wound healing of full-thickness skin wounds in mice.Methods:Fresh amniotic membrane discarded from full-term delivery by 5 healthy pregnant women in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology of the Affiliated Hospital of Zunyi Medical University was used for the isolation and culture of hAMSCs by enzyme digestion method. The third passage of cells was used for identification of adipogenic and osteogenic differentiation. The fourth passage of cells was used for identification of hAMSCs surface markers. Ten C57BL/6 mice (all male, aged 6 to 8 weeks, the same gender and age below) were selected for extracting mouse peritoneal macrophages by intraperitoneal lavage, and M1-type macrophages were induced by Dulbecco′s modified eagle medium (DMEM) medium containing interferon-γ. The M1-type macrophages were divided into hAMSCs+ macrophage group and macrophage alone group. Then 1×10 4 hAMSCs/per well of fourth passage were added to macrophage in hAMSCs+ macrophage group and cultured in 2 mL DMEM medium for routine culture. In macrophage alone group, each well was only added with 2 mL DMEM medium for routine culture. On day 1 and 7 in culture, the content of interleukin-12 (IL-12), arginase 1, and IL-10 in the cell culture supernatant of the 2 groups were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay with sample number of 6/per group. (2) Full-thickness skin wound model was reproduced in the back of 56 C57BL/6 mice, which were divided into hAMSCs group and phosphate buffer solution (PBS) group using the random number table, with 28 mice in each group. Mice in hAMSCs group were subcutaneously injected with 100 μL of cell suspension containing 1×10 7 hAMSCs per mL in PBS suspension along the wound edge. While mice in PBS group were only subcutaneously injected with 100 μL PBS along the wound edge. On post injection day (PID) 1, 3, 7, and 14, 7 mice in the two groups were sacrificed respectively. Histopathological observation was performed with hematoxylin-eosin staining. The expressions of macrophage surface markers [CD68 and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) double positive cells and CD68 and arginase 1 double positive] in the wounds were detected by immunofluorescent staining. The mRNA expressions of IL-10, macrophage inflammatory protein 1α (MIP-1α), and MIP-2 in the wounds were detected by real-time fluorescent quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction. Data were statistically analyzed with analysis of variance for factorial design, t test, and Bonferroni correction. Results:(1) On day 1 in culture, the content of IL-12 and arginase 1 in the cell culture supernatant of the two groups were similar ( t=0.448, 0.536, P>0.05), and the content of IL-10 in the cell culture supernatant of hAMSCs+ macrophage group was significantly lower than that in macrophage alone group ( t=14.722, P<0.01). On day 7 in culture, the content of IL-12 in the cell culture supernatant of hAMSCs+ macrophage group was significantly lower than that in macrophage alone group ( t=13.226, P<0.01), and the content of arginase 1 and IL-10 was significantly higher than that in macrophage alone group ( t=30.172, 31.406, P<0.01). (2) On PID 1, a large number of inflammatory cells infiltration were observed in the skin wounds of both groups. On PID 3, the inflammatory cells infiltration in the skin wounds increased in both groups, and the inflammatory cells infiltration in hAMSCs group was less than that in the PBS group. On PID 7, the inflammatory cells infiltration in the wounds decreased in both groups, and the inflammatory cells infiltration in hAMSCs group was less than that in the PBS group. On PID 14, no obvious inflammatory cells infiltration was observed in the wounds in the two groups. (3) On PID 1 and 14, the percentages of CD68 and iNOS double positive cells and CD68 and arginase 1 double positive cells in the wounds were similar in the two groups ( t1 d=0.134, 0.693, t14 d=1.146, 2.585, P>0.05). On PID 3 and 7, the percentages of CD68 and iNOS double positive cells in the wounds in hAMSCs group were significantly lower than those of PBS group ( t=6.396, 4.787, P<0.01), while the percentages of CD68 and arginase 1 double positive cells were significantly higher than those of PBS group ( t=3.928, 4.473, P<0.01). (4) On PID 1, the mRNA expressions of IL-10 in the wounds of mice in the two groups were similar ( t=2.005, P>0.05). On PID 3, 7, and 14, the mRNA expressions of IL-10 in the wounds of mice in hAMSCs group were significantly higher than those of PBS group ( t=7.758, 124.355, 80.823, P<0.01). On PID 1, 3, 7, and 14, the mRNA expressions of MIP-1α and MIP-2 in the wounds of mice in hAMSCs group (0.341±0.212, 0.648±0.004, 0.611±0.106, 0.763±0.049, 1.377±0.099, 1.841±0.042, 1.181±0.035, 0.553±0.028) were significantly lower than those of PBS group (3.853±0.035, 6.914±0.163, 3.648±0.113, 2.250±0.046, 11.119±0.495, 8.634±0.092, 5.722±0.021, 4.862±0.036, t=43.198, 101.904, 51.845, 58.231, 51.074, 177.501, 291.752, 251.614, P<0.01). Conclusions:hAMSCs demonstrates biological effects of promoting the transformation of M1-type macrophages into M2-type macrophages in full-thickness skin wounds of mice. They can up-regulate the expression of anti-inflammatory and anti-fibrotic factor IL-10, and down-regulate the expression of important inflammation mediated factors MIP-1α and MIP-2.

Rabdosia (Bl.) Hassk is a medicinal plant rich in enantiomers such as 15α-acetoxyl-6, 11α-epoxy-6α-hydroxy-20-oxo-6, 7-seco-ent-kaur-16-en-1, 7-olide and 15α-dihydroxy-6β-methoxy-6, 7-seco-6, 20-epoxy-1, 7-olide-ent-kaur-16-ene. It has high medicinal value and huge market potential, but the yield from wild Rabdosia (Bl.) Hassk species cannot meet the needs of marketization. Carrying out pollution-free cultivation of Rabdosia rubescens (Hemsl.) Hara and Rabdosia serra (Maxim.) Hara has become the most direct and effective measure to solve this problem in order to ensure the sustainable use of the resources of Rabdosia. This paper summarized a set of non- pollution cultivation system of R. rubescens and R. serra to achieve the"safe, effective, stable and controllable"target.
