In recent years, the contradiction between the construction of backward first aid system and the demand for emergency services in rural areas in China is increasingly serious. In order to further improve the quality and efficiency of first aid, the state has vigorously promoted the construction of the " Five Centers" , namely chest pain centers, stroke centers, trauma centers, critical maternal treatment centers, and critically ill children and neonatal treatment centers in rural areas, in an effort to develop an efficient rural emergency service network. The authors collected relevant policy documents and summarized practices of the " Five Centers" construction. On such basis, they referred to experiences of overseas emergency systems and medical rescue centers, and made focused analysis for on the functionality and mechanism of the " Five Centers" in building an innovative first-aid system, in terms of internal and external environment, institutional function positioning, resource integration, and operation mechanism. In view of the integration among " Five Centers" , pre-hospital emergency and in-hospital first aid in rural areas, information construction, personnel first aid capacity building and interest allocation, policy recommendations are proposed.

The aim of this study was to explore the impact of chronic apical periodontitis(CAP)on atherosclerosis in apoE-/-mice fed high-fat diet(HFD).This investigation focused on the gut microbiota,metabolites,and intestinal barrier function to uncover potential links between oral health and cardiovascular disease(CVD).In this study,CAP was shown to exacerbate atherosclerosis in HFD-fed apoE-/-mice,as evidenced by the increase in plaque size and volume in the aortic walls observed via Oil Red O staining.16S rRNA sequencing revealed significant alterations in the gut microbiota,with harmful bacterial species thriving while beneficial species declining.Metabolomic profiling indicated disruptions in lipid metabolism and primary bile acid synthesis,leading to elevated levels of taurochenodeoxycholic acid(TCDCA),taurocholic acid(TCA),and tauroursodeoxycholic acid(TDCA).These metabolic shifts may contribute to atherosclerosis development.Furthermore,impaired intestinal barrier function,characterized by reduced mucin expression and disrupted tight junction proteins,was observed.The increased intestinal permeability observed was positively correlated with the severity of atherosclerotic lesions,highlighting the importance of the intestinal barrier in cardiovascular health.In conclusion,this research underscores the intricate interplay among oral health,gut microbiota composition,metabolite profiles,and CVD incidence.These findings emphasize the importance of maintaining good oral hygiene as a potential preventive measure against cardiovascular issues,as well as the need for further investigations into the intricate mechanisms linking oral health,gut microbiota,and metabolic pathways in CVD development.

Objective:To explore the clinical features and genetic etiology for a child with developmental delay, impaired growth, facial dysmorphism, and axonal neuropathy (DIGFAN).Methods:A child who was admitted to the Second Affiliated Hospital of Guangxi Medical University on March 22, 2021 was selected the study subject. Clinical data of the child was collected. Following extraction of genomic DNA, the child and his parents were subjected to whole exome sequencing (WES), and candidate variant was verified by Sanger sequencing and bioinformatic analysis.Results:The child, a 10-year-and-9-month-old boy, had manifested with short stature, intellectual disability, delayed speech, motor and language development, and facial dysmorphism. WES and Sanger sequencing revealed that he has harbored a novel de novo c. 800T>C (p.Leu267Pro) variant of the MORC2 gene. The Leucine at position 267, which is highly conserved among various species, is located in the S5 domain of ribosome protein in the ATPase binding region of MORC2. And the Leu267Pro may affect the function of MORC2 by altering the spatial conformation and activity of ATPase. Based on the guidelines from the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics, the c. 800T>C variant was classified as likely pathogenic (PS2+ PM2_Supporting+ PP2+ PP3). Conclusion:The MORC2: c. 800T>C (p.Leu267Pro) variant probably underlay the pathogenesis of DIGFAN syndrome in this child.
