Objective In order to understand the current resistance status of Aedes albopictus(Ae. albopictus) adult population to commonly used insecticides and the resistance dynamics development in Zhejiang Province and provide a theoretical basis for the scientific and rational use of hygienic insecticides. Methods Resistance determination was carried out using the diagnostic dose method(GB/T 26347-2010)recommended by WHO in the adult mosquito contact cylinder method to monitor the resistance of Ae. albopictus field populations in 11 cities and districts in Zhejiang Province in 2024. Results The monitoring result showed that adult Ae. albopictus in 11 areas were resistant or suspected resistant populations to both cis-cypermethrin and permethrin; suspected and resistant populations to the organophosphate insecticide malathion were as high as 81.82%; while suspected resistance to the carbamate insecticide residual carbofuran accounted for 45.45%, and the rest of the monitoring sites were sensitive to it. Conclusions The result suggest that the generalized resistance of Ae. albopictus populations to pyrethroids and organophosphorus insecticides in the field in Zhejiang Province needs to be highly emphasized. In future mosquito vector and mosquito-borne disease control, insecticides should be selected based on the resistance monitoring information, while following scientific guidelines for insecticide use.

In this case, the patient was 32-year-old. In September 2020, hysteroscopy was performed due to the indication of intrauterine lesion shown by ultrasound. Pathological examination suggested local grade Ⅱ endometrioid carcinoma, and the molecular classification was no specific molecular profile. The patient was treated by gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist and letrozole and achieved complete response. The chromosome karyotype examination suggests that the female was 46,XX,t(9;14)(q22;q24), and the male was 46,XY. The progestin primed ovarian stimulation regimen for ovulation induction was carried out under the protection of levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine system. A total of 17 oocytes were retrieved, among which 14 were mature oocytes. Intracytoplasmic sperm injection was used for fertilization, and 13 oocytes were fertilized. On the 3rd day, there were 10 embryos. After blastocyst culture, 6 blastocysts were formed. Six blastocysts were biopsied for preimplantation genetic testing for structural rearrangements, and 1 euploid embryo (B6BB) was obtained. Successful pregnancy was delivered after hormone replacement therapy-frozen embryo transfer, and a healthy male infant was obtained. This case indicates that patients with grade Ⅱ endometrioid carcinoma can achieve complete remission and pregnancy through combined drug treatment. However, a comprehensive assessment should be conducted, and relevant risks should be informed before treatment. For those with balanced chromosomal translocation, preimplantation genetic testing should be actively adopted to block the implantation of aneuploid embryos.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical value and safety of an intraperitoneal chemotherapy port technique in patients with gastric cancer and peritoneal metastases undergoing intraperitoneal chemotherapy.Methods:This was a retrospective, descriptive case analysis. From November 2022 to October 2024, patients diagnosed with gastric cancer and peritoneal metastases at Wuxi Branch of Ruijin Hospital, Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine with an expected survival >3 months, underwent laparoscopic exploration combined with implantation of an intraperitoneal chemotherapy port [PORT-A-CATH II system (Model 21-4055-24)] implantation. The procedure was as follows: (1) after laparoscopic exploration, a 4-cm skin incision was made at a predetermined site and a subcutaneous pocket created by dissecting to the muscle fascia and removing subcutaneous fat as needed to position the port septum 0.5-1.0 cm from the skin surface; (2) under direct laparoscopic visualization, the abdominal cavity was punctured and a guidewire inserted, followed by an 8.5 Fr sheath, through which a catheter with three trimmed side holes was placed after removal of the sheath; (3) the catheter length in the abdominal cavity was adjusted to 25–30 cm and the catheter trimmed, and connected to the port base, ensuring it extended beyond the connector's visible hole; (4) the whole port was placed within the subcutaneous pocket, and non-absorbable sutures used to create a double purse-string suture at the catheter's abdominal entry, forming an anti-reflux ring; (5) non-absorbable sutures were used to securely fix the port to the fascia through its four base holes and the exposed catheter segments on the fascia sutured and buried; (6) patency was confirmed by injecting saline and followed by intermittent skin closure provided there was no bleeding; and (7) the catheter tip was positioned in the pelvic cavity under laparoscopic guidance. Postoperatively, the patients underwent normothermic intraperitoneal and systemic treatment. The port infusion protocol involved disinfecting the skin (>10 cm diameter) around the port, confirming the puncture site, inserting a Huber needle vertically at 90° to the port base, infusing 100 mL saline to ensure patency, followed by continuous infusion of 1000 mL paclitaxel solution, and sealing with 20 mL saline before removing the needle. No saline flushing was required between chemotherapy infusions. The primary outcomes were the incidence and management of complications post-port implantation.Results:The study cohort comprised 225 patients with gastric cancer and peritoneal metastases. Using standardized port implantation and postoperative puncture procedures, the complication rate during follow-up was 14.2% (32/225), including effusion in 14 patients (6.2%), port infection in 10 (4.4%), incision dehiscence in four (1.8%), port inversion in two (0.9%), hematoma in one (0.4%), and catheter rupture in one (0.4%). Seventy-five percent (24/32) of patients with complications recovered and continued using the port after conservative treatments (e. g., aspiration of effusions, antibiotic therapy, incision management), whereas the remaining 25.0% (8/32) with complications required surgical removal of the port because the treatment was ineffective. The presence of preoperative ascites ( P=0.019) and peritoneal cancer index score>15 ( P=0.038) were significantly associated with development of complications. Conclusions:Our standardized procedure for intraperitoneal chemotherapy port implantation is safe and feasible for patients with gastric cancer and peritoneal metastases, having a low overall complication rate. Most complications can be successfully managed with conservative treatment, the device thus providing reliable support for intraperitoneal chemotherapy.

Endothelial dysfunction is a pivotal contributor to atherosclerosis(As)pathogenesis.A comprehensive understanding of the mechanisms of endothelial dysfunction would provide novel insights into effective treatment of As.Recent advances in genome and transcripome technology have enabled researchers to further explore the molecular mecha-nisms of endothelial dysfunction.It has been found that the regulatory network of competitive endogenous RNA(ceRNA)mediated by long non-coding RNA(lncRNA)plays a key role in endothelial dysfunction.lncRNA acts as a"molecular sponge"for microRNA(miRNA)to block the post-transcriptional repression of miRNA on downstream target gene messen-ger RNA(mRNA)by binding to miRNA,thereby regulating the function and phenotypic conversion of endothelial cell(EC)lncRNA-miRNA-mRNA interactions are widely involved in play an essential role EC inflammatory responses,apopto-sis,autophagy,angiogenesis,and endothelial-mesenchymal transition(EndMT).Which suggests that it may be a poten-tial therapeutic targets for As.

The xylitol dehydrogenase(XDH)is a crucial enzyme involved in the xylose utilization in pentose-catabolizing yeasts and fungi.In addition to producing xylulose,XDH can also be employed to develop a biosensor for monitoring xylitol concentration.In this study,the gene encoding the thermophilic fungus Talaromyces emersonii XDH(TeXDH)was heterologously expressed in Escherichia coli BL21(DE3)at 16 ℃ in the soluble form.Recombinant TeXDH with high purity was purified by using a Ni-NTA affinity column.Size-exclusion chromatography and SDS-PAGE analysis demonstrated that the puri-fied recombinant TeXDH exists as a native trimer with a molecular mass of approximately 116 kD,and is composed of three identical subunits,each with a molecular weight of around 39 kD.The TeXDH strictly preferred NAD+as a coenzyme to NADP+.The optimal temperature and pH of the TeXDH were 40 ℃and 10.0,respectively.After EDTA treatment,the enzyme activity of TeXDH decreased to 43.26％of the initial enzyme activity,while the divalent metal ions Mg2+or Ca2+could recover the enzyme activity of TeXDH,reaching 103.32％and 110.69％of the initial enzyme activity,respectively,making them the optimal divalent metal ion cofactors for TeXDH enzyme.However,the divalent metal ions of Mn2+,Ni2+,Cu2+,Zn2+,Co2+,and Cd2+significantly inhibited the activity of TeXDH.ICP-MS and molecular doc-king studies revealed that 1 mol/L of TeXDH bound 2 mol/L Zn2+ions and 1 mol/L Mg2+ion.Further-more,TeXDH exhibited a high specificity for xylitol,laying the foundation for the development of future xylitol biosensors.

Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy of Shengqing Jiangzhuo(lifting lucid yang and lowering turbid yin)Acupuncture Method,based on the"turbidity-clearness interaction"theory,combined with western medicine in treating gouty nephropathy(GN)patients with damp-heat accumulation syndrome.Methods A total of 117 patients diagnosed with GN from September 2023 to September 2024 at the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine Chongqing Hospital were enrolled and randomly divided into three groups,with 39 cases in each group.The western medicine group received Febuxostat Tablets,the control group was given western medicine+conventional acupuncture,and observation group was given western medicine+Shengqing Jiangzhuo Acupuncture Method.All groups received 4 weeks of treatment.Clinical efficacy,traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)syndrome scores,visual analogue scale(VAS)of pain scores,and laboratory parameters—including serum uric acid(UA),blood urea nitrogen(BUN),creatinine(Scr),estimated glomerular filtration rate(eGFR),β2-microglobulin(β2-MG),24-hour urinary protein(24h-UTP),cystatin C(CysC)were assessed.The erythrocyte sedimentation rate(ESR),and C-reactive protein(CRP)were compared before and after treatment.Results(1)The total effective rate was 71.79%(28/39)in the western medicine group,84.62%(33/39)in the control group,and 92.31%(36/39)in the observation group.The observation group demonstrated statistically significant superiority over the western medicine group(P＜0.05),while showing marginally better efficacy than the control group without statistical significance(P＞0.05).(2)After treatment,all three groups exhibited significant improvements in ESR,CRP,and UA levels(P＜0.05).The observation group significantly outperformed the other two groups in reducing ESR and CRP levels(P＜0.05),and was statistically superior to the western medicine group in lowering UA levels(P＜0.05),though no significant difference was observed versus the control group for UA improvement(P＞0.05).The control group showed significantly greater reductions in ESR,CRP,and UA levels than the western medicine group(P＜0.05).(3)After treatment,Scr,BUN,and eGFR levels were significantly improved in all groups(P＜0.05).The observation group achieved significantly better improvements in Scr and eGFR than the other two groups(P＜0.05).However,no statistical difference existed between the control and western medicine groups for Scr or eGFR enhancement(P＞0.05).No intergroup differences were detected in BUN improvement(P＞0.05).(4)Significant differences emerged in β2-MG and CysC levels among all groups after treatment(P＜0.05).Both observation and control groups demonstrated statistically significant improvements in 24-hour 24h-UTP(P＜0.05),whereas the western medicine group showed no significant change(P＞0.05).The observation group significantly outperformed the other groups in reducing 24h-UTP and β2-MG levels(P＜0.05),and was superior to the western medicine group in lowering CysC(P＜0.05),though no difference versus the control group was observed for CysC reduction(P＞0.05).The control group showed no statistical advantage over the western medicine group in improving 24h-UTP,β 2-MG,or CysC(P＞0.05).(5)After treatment,TCM syndrome scores and VAS scores were significantly improved in all groups(P＜0.05).The observation group achieved significantly greater reductions in TCM syndrome scores and VAS scores than the western medicine group(P＜0.05).The control group showed statistically superior VAS score improvement versus the western medicine group(P＜0.05),but no significant differences emerged in TCM syndrome score improvement compared to either group(P＞0.05).No statistical difference existed between observation and control groups for VAS score reduction(P＞0.05).Conclusion Shengqing Jiangzhuo Acupuncture Method,grounded in the"turbidity-clearness interaction"theory,effectively reduces serum UA,controls inflammation,and preserves renal function in damp-heat accumulation type of GN,demonstrating significant therapeutic benefits.

Objective To investigate the effects of peripheral blood neutrophil infiltration on the polarization regulation of cerebral resident microglia under a permanent ischemic stroke model.Methods Fifty-eight C57BL/6 mice were divided into two groups.One group was sham group,and the other group of mice was subjected to permanent middle cerebral artery occlusion surgery.Mice were euthanized 48 hours,7 days,14 days,and 30 days after surgery for tissue collection.Western blotting was used to detect expression levels of M1 microglia markers CD 16,M2 microglia marker arginase 1(Arg1),inflammatory cytokine interleukin-1 β(IL-1β),and neutrophil marker myeloperoxidase(MPO)in brain tissue.Immunofluorescence histochemical staining was used to assess neutrophil infiltration and M2 microglial distribution around the infarct area in brain sections.In vitro,purified neutrophils were co-cultured with BV2 microglial cells.After lipopolysaccharide stimulation,the phagocytosis of neutrophils by BV2 cells was observed,and the expression levels of CD16 and Arg1 proteins in BV2 cells were detected.Results Western blotting showed that the levels of CD16(P＜0.05),IL-1β(P＜0.001),and MPO(P＜0.05)in brain tissue increased significantly 48 hours and 7 days after surgery,then decreased,with MPO expression returning to normal levels 30 days after surgery.Immunofluorescence showed a significant increase of MPO-positive cells around the infarct area of the mouse cerebral cortex 48 hours after surgery(P＜0.001),followed by a decrease(P＜0.05).The number of ionized calcium binding adapter molecule 1(Iba1)and MPO double-positive cells gradually increased after surgery,and reached their peak at 14 days(P＜0.05).Iba1 and Arg1 double-positive cells also increased significantly 7 days(P＜0.05)and 14 days(P＜0.01)after surgery.In vitro,co-culture experiments showed that after BV2 phagocytosing neutrophils,CD 16(P＜0.05)significantly decreased and Arg1 significantly upregulated(P＜0.05).Conclusion In a permanent ischemic stroke model,microglia transition from M1 to M2 type after phagocytosing neutrophils,and the injured brain area changes from pro-inflammatory state to anti-inflammatory state.
