Objective: To explore the impact of five-flavor Sophora flavescens enteric-coated capsules (FSEC) on the intestinal flora of rats with ulcerative colitis (UC), so as to provide the reference for the mechanism of FSEC in treating UC. Methods: Forty SPF-grade Wistar rats were randomly divided into the control group, the model group, the mesalazine group and the FSEC group. Except the control group (0.9% sodium chloride solution), the other 3 groups used 3% dextran sulfate sodium (DSS) for 7 days to establish UC model. After successful modeling, the control group and the model group were given 2 mL/kgbw of 0.9% sodium chloride solution by gavage for 2 weeks, while the mesalazine group and the FSEC group were given 2 mL/kgbw of mesalazine suspension (0.2 g/kg) and FSEC granule suspension (2.16 g/kg), respectively. Pathological changes of colon tissue were observed after hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining. Rat fecal samples were collected, and 16S rDNA high-throughput sequencing and bioinformatics analysis were performed on intestinal flora. The α and β diversity of intestinal flora among the four groups were compared, and the dominant flora was screened using LEfSe analysis. Results: Compared with the control group, the model group showed a significant loss of colonic crypts and a large infiltration of inflammatory cells. Compared with the model group, the mesalazine group and the FSEC group exhibited a slight loss of colonic crypts, a small amount or an absence inflammatory cell infiltration, and improved tissue damage. The α-diversity analysis showed that compared with the control group, the Chao1 and Shannon indices in the model group increased, while the Simpson index decreased; compared with the model group, the Chao1 and Shannon indices in the mesalazine group and the FSEC group decreased, and the Simpson index increased（all P<0.05）. The β-diversity analysis showed that the sample distance between the FSEC group and the control group were more closer than that between the model group and the control group. LEfSe analysis results showed that the dominant bacteria in the model group were mainly from the Alistipes and Oscillospira. In the FSEC group, the dominant bacteria were from the Ruminococcus and Prevotella. Conclusion FSEC can improve the structures of intestinal flora, increase the abundance of beneficial bacteria such as Ruminococcus and Prevotella, reduce the abundance of pathogenic bacteria such as Alistipes, and alleviate the inflammatory response in UC rats.

Objective To build a high quality diagnosis system for schistosomiasis surveillance in the situation of low infec-tion in Jianglin County. Methods The network laboratory for schistosomiasis diagnosis was built according to the national crite-ria in Jianglin County in 2012. Results The network laboratory for schistosomiasis diagnosis was established successfully and the operation was quiet well. Conclusion The establishment and operation of the laboratory play an important role in the real-ization of schistosomiasis elimination.

Objective To implement a two?level community?based health education pattern of schistosomiasis in residents of endemic areas in marshland and lake regions,so as to explore the suitable pattern of health education under hypo?endemic situa?tion. Methods Two schistosomiasis endemic villages in Jiangling County,Hubei Province were collected as study areas,and among which,one village was treated as an intervention group,where the two?level community?based health education pattern as well as regular control measures was implemented;the other village was a control group,where only regular control measures were implemented. The awareness rates on schistosomiasis control,the rates of correct behavior and the compliance rates of ex?amination,treatment and chemotherapy of the two groups before and after the intervention were compared. Results According to the results of the baseline survey in 2014,the awareness rates of schistosomiasis control of the intervention and control groups were 84.00%and 77.45%,respectively,the correct rates of behavior of the two groups were 72.00%and 63.73%,respectively, and the compliance rates of the treatment were 80.36%and 82.28%,respectively,there were no statistically significant differ? ences between all the above rates of the two groups(all P>0.05). After the intervention of the two?level community?based health education,the correct rates of behavior,and the compliance rates of examination and chemotherapy of the two groups were 92.31%and 80.37%,95.11%and 82.55%,84.13%and 63.64%,respectively,and the differences between all the rates above of the two groups were statistically significant(all P<0.05). When compared to those before intervention,the growing rates of the compliance rates of examination,treatment and chemotherapy of the intervention group were 20.97%,15.33%and 23.29%, respectively,while those of control group were 14.27%,4.17%,-3.77%,respectively,the growing rates of the intervention groups were higher than those of the control groups. Conclusions Through the two?level community?based pattern of health edu?cation,the compliance rates of examination and treatment of the residents have improved,and therefore,the pattern is suitable for popularization and application in marshland and lake regions.

OBJECTIVE Aimed to analyze the demographic,anthropometric,severity,and common comorbidities of individuals with suspected obstructive sleep apnea(OSA)referred to the OSA diagnosis and treatment center of the Sixth People's Hospital affiliated with Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine from 2012 to 2021.METHODS Data of subjects with suspected OSA who underwent polysomnography(PSG)from January 2012 to December 2021 were collected.Subjects were categorized into five groups based on the PSG study date with a two-year interval.Clinical characteristics trends were compared across groups,focusing on the comparison between 2020-2021 and 2018-2019 to explore changes after COVID-19 epidemic.RESULTS 1.A total of 5870 subjects were included from 2012 to 2019[age(43.2±12.7)years,21.7％females].OSA prevalence was 84.8％.Over the two-year intervals,age,female proportion,OSA severity,and other indicators showed no significant changes.Body mass index(median 26.8kg/m2 to 26.0kg/m2)and overweight rates(78.1％to 73.4％)decreased yearly,as did the proportions of subjects who smoked(38.1％to 27.8％)and consumed alcohol(13.5％to 6.4％).The prevalence of hypertension increased yearly(40.3％to 51.8％),while awareness rates gradually decreased(70.3％to 59.4％).Diabetes prevalence remained relatively stable(9.4％to 9.7％),with increased awareness(49.5％to 66.2％).Dyslipidemia prevalence remained high(76.7％to 78.3％),with low awareness rates(20.8％to 28.7％).2.A total of 805 subjects were included from 2020 to 2021.Compared with 2018-2019,the proportion of females decreased(14.9％vs.22.0％),and OSA severity increased(apnea-hypopnea index 40.4 times/h vs.29.2 times/h).Prevalence rates of hypertension,diabetes,dyslipidemia(47.1％,6.9％,62.1％)and awareness rates(52.4％,57.7％,17.8％)were lower than those from 2018-2019.3.Compared with subjects with known their comorbidities,unknown subjects had significantly higher levels of systolic blood pressure(141 mmHg vs.134 mmHg),diastolic blood pressure(93 mmHg vs.85 mmHg),fasting blood glucose(7.87 mmol/L vs.6.07 mmol/L),and low-density lipoprotein(3.08 mmol/L vs.2.91 mmol/L)(P＜0.05).CONCLUSION From 2012 to 2021,individuals with suspected OSA referred for PSG test showed a tendency toward younger age,lower proportion of females,fewer comorbidities,but increased OSA severity.The awareness rate of comorbidities needs improvement,emphasizing the importance of a multidisciplinary approach to the diagnosis and treatment of OSA.
