Objective: To investigate the epidemiological characteristics of measles in Jiaxing City of Zhejiang Province in different immunization program periods, so as to provide the evidence for improving prevention and control strategies of measles. Methods: Data of measles cases in Jiaxing City from 2005 to 2023 was collected through the Chinese Disease Prevention and Control Information System. Population, temporal, and regional distribution of measles during the periods of pre-expanded immunization program (from 2005 to 2007), expanded immunization program (from 2008 to 2010), and enhanced immunization program (from 2011 to 2023) were descriptively analyzed. Results: There were 3 997 measles cases reported in Jiaxing City from 2005 to 2023, with an average annual reported incidence of 4.66/105, showing a decreasing trend (P<0.05). The average annual reported incidence of measles during the periods of pre-expanded immunization program, expanded immunization program, and enhanced immunization program were 22.88/105, 7.24/105 and 0.83/105, respectively. The incidence of measles during different stages of immunization strategies all peaked from March to May. The highest reported incidence was 5.94/105 in Pinghu City and the lowest was 3.92/105 in Tongxiang City. The districts with the highest average annual reported incidence in the periods of pre-expanded immunization program, expanded immunization program, and enhanced immunization program were Nanhu District (31.10/105), Pinghu City (11.10/105) and Jiashan County (1.55/105), respectively. There was spatial clustering of measles in Jiaxing City during the period of pre-expanded immunization program (Moran's I=0.787, P<0.05), with a high-high cluster in Nanhu District. Conclusions The reported incidence of measles in Jiaxing City showed a decreasing trend from 2005 to 2023. There was a spatial cluster of measles incidence during the period of pre-expanded immunization program, but no significant clusters during the periods of expanded immunization program and enhanced immunization program.

Objective: To observe the effect of sequential colon dialysis in patients with chronic renal failure(CRF) in early and medium stage.Methods: One hundred and forty-two CRF patients in early and medium stage were treated with sequential colon dialysis and traditional Chinese medicine according to(traditional) Chinese medical syndrome differentiation and typing,and clinical syndromes were observed.(Sixty-three) patients with CRF were selected as controls treated with low protein diet plus essential amino acids.The serum levels of blood urea nitrogen(BUN),creatinine(Cr),uric acid(UA),the creatinine(clearance) rate(CCr),electrolyte and medium molecular substance(MMS) were measured before and after treatment.Results: The clinical symptoms of the 142 patients were improved,the serum levels of BUN,Cr,UA and MMS were decreased significantly(BUN:(15.3?4.5)mmol/L vs.(8.6?3.3)mmol/L;Cr:((443.6?73.5)?mol/L) vs.(283.5?38.7) ?mol/L;UA:(512.6?86.5)?mol/L vs.(243.1?33.6)?mol/L;MMS: 0.44?0.06 vs.0.32?0.04),and CCr increased markedly((9.87?3.31)ml/min vs.(15.60?(4.63)ml/min)).The difference between treatment group and control group was significant.The changes in electrolyte levels were not significant before and after treatment in both groups.Conclusion: Sequential colon dialysis has obviously curative effects on CRF patients in early and medium stage,and could ameliorate the(develope) of CRF in early and medium stage.

Objective To investigate the effect of PNS on malignant melanoma and the expression of connexin32 in melanoma. Methods The spontaneous and experimental lung metastasis models of B16 melanoma were used to investigate the inhibitory effect of PNS on tumor growth and metastasis. The expression of connexin in melanoma were detected by immunohistoehemistry. Results (1) PNS can obviously inhibit the growth of B16 melanoma. The inhibition rate of the 480mg/kg PNS group was 50. 85%. (2) PNS can obviously inhibit the lung metastasis of B16 melanoma. The number of tumor colonies in lung of the 240 mg/kg PNS group and 480 mg/kg PNS group were lower than that in the negative control group. ( 3 ) The expression of connexin32 in melanoma was detected by immunohistochemistry:PNS could up-regulate the expression of connexin32 in membrane of melanoma. Conclusion PNS can inhibit malignant melanoma growth and metastasis and could also up-regulate the expression of connexin32 in membrane of melanoma.

Objective To evaluate the effect of flurbiprofen axetil pretreatment on the level of central β-endorphin in a rat model of incisional pain.Methods Fifty-four SPF male healthy Sprague-Dawley rats,aged 6-7 weeks,weighing 180-230 g,were divided into 3 groups (n=18 each) using a random number table:control group (group C),incisional pain group (group Ⅰ) and flurbiprofen axetil pretreatnent group (group FA).At 30 min before the model of incisional pain was established,fat emulsion 1 ml was injected via the caudal vein in group Ⅰ,and flurbiprofen axetil 6 mg/kg (diluted to 1 ml in fat emulsion) was injected via the caudal vein in group FA.The mechanical paw withdrawal threshold (MWT) was measured at 1 day before establishment of the model and 1,6 and 12 h after establishment of the model (T1-3).The rats were sacrificed after measurement of pain threshold at T1-3,and the lumbar enlargement segment of the spinal cord and hypothalamic arcuate nucleus specimens were obtained for determination of β-endorphin content (by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay) and β-endorphin expression (by immunohistochemistry).Results Compared with group C,the MWT was significantly decreased at T1-3 in I and FA groups,the content and expression of β-endorphin in the spinal cord were significantly decreased at T2,3,and the content and expression of β-endorphin in the hypothalamic arcuate nucleus were increased at T1 in group Ⅰ,and the content and expression of β-endorphin in the spinal cord and hypothalamic arcuate nucleus were significantly increased at T1-3 in group FA (P＜0.05).Compared with group Ⅰ,the MWT was significantly increased,and the content and expression of β-endorphin in the spinal cord and hypothalamic arcuate nucleus were increased at T1-3 in group FA (P＜0.05).Conclusion The mechanism by which flurbiprofen axetil pretreatment produces analgesic effect may be related to the increased level of central β-endorphine in a rat modal of incisional pain.

Conclusions The reported incidence of pertussis was at a low level in Jiaxing City, but showed an upward trend from 2004 to 2023. The incidence of pertussis was higher among infants under one year of age, peaked in June to August and November to December, and was concentrated in Nanhu District and its surrounding areas.

Objective: To investigate the resistance of Mycobacterium tuberculosis to first-line anti-tuberculosis drugs in Jiaxing City, Zhejiang Province from 2017 to 2019, so as to provide insights into improvements of the therapeutic effect of pulmonary tuberculosis. Methods: Data pertaining to pulmonary tuberculosis in Jiaxing City from 2017 to 2019 were collected from the Tuberculosis Surveillance System of Chinese Disease Prevention and Control Information System, including demographics, treatment classification, sputum culture and drug resistance. The spectrum, types and prevalence of drug resistance in M. tuberculosis to four first-line tuberculosis drugs, including isoniazid (INH), rifampicin (RFP), streptomycin (SM) and ethambutol (EMB), was analyzed using a descriptive epidemiological method. Results: A total of 1 310 M. tuberculosis isolates were cultured from pulmonary tuberculosis patients in Jiaxing City from 2017 to 2019, and there were 259 M. tuberculosis isolates that were resistant to anti-tuberculosis drugs, with an overall drug resistance rate of 19.77%. The prevalence rates of drug resistance to INH, SM, RFP and EMB were 13.36%, 11.83%, 5.50% and 3.59%, respectively. The prevalence of drug resistance was lower in M. tuberculosis isolates from treatment-naïve patients than from retreated patients (18.45% vs. 34.58%, P<0.05). M. tuberculosis isolates presented high resistance to SM (4.50%) and INH alone (4.35%), the highest resistance to INH-SM combinations (3.28%), and the highest resistance to INH+RFP+SM combinations (1.83%). Sixteen isolates were resistant to all the four drugs, with a drug resistance rate of 1.22%. The proportions of resistance to a single drug, RFP resistance, multidrug resistance and resistance to two and more drugs were 10.31%, 5.50%, 4.73% and 4.73%, respectively. In addition, the prevalence of RFP resistance among all patients and treatment-naïve patients both showed a tendency towards a rise from 2017 to 2019 (P<0.05). The prevalence of RFP resistance (7.01% vs. 3.76%) and resistance to two and more drugs (6.01% vs. 3.25%) was both higher among interprovincial mobile tuberculosis patients than among local non-mobile patients (P<0.05). Conclusions The overall prevalence of drug resistance was lower in M. tuberculosis isolates in Jiaxing City from 2017 to 2019 than in Zhejiang Province, with INH and RFP resistance as predominant types.

Objective To investigate the relationship between alcohol and smoking and the development of pancreatic calcification in chronic pancreatitis (CP) in China. Methods The patients were divided into two groups according to the presence of pancreatic calcification at admission and the data were analyzed; furthermore, the discharged patients without pancreatic calcification were divided into two groups as newly diagnosed pancreatic calcification group and persistent non-pancreatic calcification group. Logistic regression and Cox proportional-hazards model was used for multivariate analysis of the risk factors for pancreatic calcification. Results From January1997 to July 2007, 449 patients with CP were enrolled and followed up successfully. 248 patients presented with pancreatic calcification at admission; among the 201 patients presented without pancreatic calcification, 13 patients developed pancreatic calcification after discharge. Patients with pancreatic calcification had a young age at onset, long CP history, higher incidence of diabetes mellitus and diarrhea. Age at onset ≤ 40, alcohol intake over 20 g/day, and diabetes mellitus and diarrhea were risk factors for pancreatic calcification. The only risk factor of development of pancreatic calcification after discharge was excessive alcohol intake (OR: 3.2). Conclusions Alcohol intake increased the risk of pancreatic calcifications, suggesting the patients abstain from alcohol intake. Further studies are necessary to clarify the role of smoking.

Aim To investigate the effect of N-n-butyl haloperidol iodide(F2) on mitochondria-dependent apoptotic pathway of H9c2 cardiac myocytes during hypoxia/reoxygenation(H/R) injury.Methods The H/R models of H9c2 cardiac myocytes were established.The H9c2 cardiac myocytes were randomly divided into five groups: control group(C group), hypoxia/reoxygenation group(H/R group), F2 low concentration group(L), F2 medium concentration group(M), F2 high concentration group(H).Apoptotic rate was evaluated by flow cytometry(FCM).The levels of Cyto C, Bcl-2, Bax were observed by Western blot.Caspase-3 activity was measured with colorimetry.Results Compared with H/R group, F2 low, medium and high concentrations group could significantly decrease apoptosis rate and increase the ratio of Bcl-2 to Bax proteins and inhibit the release of Cyto C into the cytosolic fraction, and decrease caspase-3 activity.Conclusion F2 can protect H9c2 cardiac myocytes against H/R-induced injury through interfering in mitochondria-dependent pathway.

Aim To investigate the effects of classic calcium antagonists verapamil(Ver),nifedipine(Nif),diltiazem(Dil)and the novel calcium antagonist N-n-butyl haloperidol iodide(F2)which was synthesized by our lab by regulating Ca2+-independent phospholipase A2(iPLA2)on hypoxia/reoxygenation(H/R)injury of cardiac microvascular endothelial cells(CMECs)and the mechanisms.Methods The CMECs were isolated from SD neonatal rats.The H/R model was established,then cells were treated with different concentrations of calcium antagonists and F2.The content of LDH in the cell supernatant was measured by colorimetric method.The levels of IL-6 and AA in cell supernatant were measured by ELISA;and late-stage apoptosis was measured by TUNEL.The mRNA and protein expression levels of iPLA2 in CMECs were examined by real time-PCR and Western blot analysis.Results Calcium antagonists except Dil decreased the generation of LDH,IL-6 and AA in a dose-dependent manner(P<0.05),and reduced the apoptosis(P<0.05).F2 and Ver decreased the mRNA and protein expression of iPLA2 in a dose-dependent manner,while there were no such effects for Nif and Dil.Conclusions Calcium antagonists except Dil have protective effects against H/R injury.F2 and Ver protect CMECs against H/R injury partly through iPLA2.
