OBJECTIVE:
To explore whether there was tissue remodeling in the nasal mucosa of allergic rhinitis (AR) patients and detect the protein expressions of transforming growth factor beta1 (TGF-beta1), matrix metalloproteinases 9 (MMP-9) and tissue inhibitors of matrix metalloproteinases 1 (TIMP-1) in the nasal mucosa of these patients.
METHOD:
Pathologic staining was used to explore the mucosa of the middle turbinate tissues from 16 patients with mild AR, from 12 patients with severe AR, and from 15 non-AR, respect. The infiltrating of eosinophils and damage of epithelium were examined by the hematoxylin-eosin staining; goblet cells were counted by the alcian blue-periodic acid-schiff staining; the percentage area of extracellular matrix was determined by the MT; the protein expressions were measured by ELISA of TGF-beta1, MMP-9 and TIMP-1 in the middle turbinate tissues.
RESULT:
Compared with the control group, significant eosinophil infiltration and goblet cells were observed in both AR groups (P < 0.05). Evident epithelial damage and extracellular matrix deposition were observed in severe-AR group (P < 0.05). The expressions of TGF-beta1, MMP-9 and TIMP-1 in AR tissues were significant increased (P < 0.05).
CONCLUSION
The nasal mucosa remodeling was observed in AR groups. The characteristics were as follows: eosinophils infiltration, epithelial damage, goblet cells hyperplasia and extracellular matrix deposition. TGF-beta1, MMP-9, TIMP-1 may play a role in the tissue remodeling processes.

Objective:
To understand the public health emergency response capacity in primary and secondary schools, and to explore the problems and challenges in the prevention and control of public health emergency in primary and secondary schools for specific strategies.
Methods:
By using the stratified group sampling method, a questionnaire survey on general situation, knowledge, attitude and training, as well as public health emergencies response capacity among 2 988 teachers or leaders responsible for school emergency response in primary and secondary schools from Beijing, Chongqing and Yunnan.
Results:
Participants varied on their positions, titles, educational background and knowledge accuracy. Higher knowledge accuracy was associated with higher educational background ( χ 2=50.73-203.36, P < 0.05 ). The implementation of regular public health emergency related programs was poorly conducted in high schools (50.0%). Urban schools (42.0%) had higher proportion of qualified health care professionals than rural schools (18.2%), and private schools (48.5%) was higher than public schools (24.7%). The primary challenges included the shortage of guidance from professionals and the lack of related testing equipment (84.91%, 74.03%).
Conclusion
Although the ability of emergency handling of public health emergencies in schools in the three regions is advancing with the times, there are still many deficiencies, some omissions in the mastery of knowledge. It is suggested to inerease pre service and special training of school health work CDC should strengthen technical guidance and work supervision of infectious disease management in schools.

Objective:
To explore the epidemiological characteristics of mortality of accidental injury children aged 5-19 years in Yunnan Province during 2015-2019, to provide further evidence for reducing accidental mortality in children.
Methods:
The mortality cases of accidental injury by gender, age groups, and causes among children and adolescents in Yunnan Province during 2015 to 2019 were analyzed retrospectively. Poisson regression model was used to estimate the trend of mortality. Chi square test was used to compare the differences of mortality by gender and age groups.
Results:
During 2015 to 2019, the mortality rate of accidental injury in children and adolescents aged 5-19 years in Yunnan Province decreased from 19.15/10 5 in 2015 to 18.35/10 5 in 2019 (Z=-3.36, P <0.01). The mortality rate of all types of accidental injuries in male was higher than that in female ( χ 2=867.01, 11.69 , 147.60, 190.34, 7.23, 702.97, P <0.05). The top three causes of fatal accidental injuries included road traffic accidents, drowning and falls. Except for accidental falls, the mortality rate of other causes in the 15-19 age group was significantly higher than that in the age of 5-9 years and 10-14 years groups ( χ 2=764.47, 75.91, 31.75, 9.24, 114.96, 327.64, P <0.05). The top three traffic accidents were happened among motorcyclists, light trucks or caravans and cars, accounting for 27.83%, 10.57% and 7.90% respectively.
Conclusion
Targeted measures should be taken continuously according to the characteristics of children and adolescents in different regions, age groups and gender to reduce the incidence and mortality of accidental injuries among children.
