Abstract
To analyzes the characteristics, problems and enlightenment of physical activity observation tools, so as to provide reference for researchers to quickly and accurately choose appropriate observation tools to evaluate children s and adolescents physical activity. Literature search is conducted in eight databases of Chinese and English, including CNKI, Wanfang, VIP, Web of Science, PubMed, Medline, ERIC, and SPORTDiscus. Ultimately, eight observation tools for assessing physical activity in children and adolescents are included. Through summarization and comparison, it is found that the applications of those tools cover multiple age groups, the observation indicators cover multiple dimensions for each with varying emphases, and the applicable contexts vary in their specific background information, and recording methods tend to be quantitative. However, several issues remain to be addressed in practical applications. First, the observation indicators need to be supplemented and improved; second, physical activity in community environments and academic classrooms requires further attention; third, physical activity intensity needs to be scientifically evaluated; fourth, observation and recording methods need to be integrated and innovated; fifth, the number of observation subjects needs to be expanded. Future research could focus on developing observation tools tailored to the characteristics of Chinese children and adolescents, while drawing on foreign observation tools to comprehensively assess physical activity among children and adolescents.

Objective:
To evaluate the immunogenicity and safety of co-administration with bivalent human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine and hepatitis E virus (HEV) vaccine, so as to provide reference for optimizing the vaccination schedule.
Methods:
Females aged 18 to 25 years were recruited from September to October 2021 in Hengdian College of Film & Television in Zhejiang Province and randomly divided into the HPV+HEV group, the HPV group, and the HEV group. The vaccination procedures were one dose each at 0, 1, and 6 months. Immunogenicity was evaluated by detecting the geometric mean titers (GMT) of HPV16 IgG, HPV18 IgG, and/or HEV IgG antibodies before the first vaccination and one month after the full course of immunization, and comparing the difference in seroconversion, and the GMT ratio. The non-inferiority margin was set at a seroconversion difference of ≤5%, and the lower limit of the 95%CI of the GMT ratio was >0.5. Safety was evaluated by collecting conjunctive local reactions/events and systemic reactions/events within 7 days after each dose, non-conjunctive adverse events within 30 days after each dose, and serious adverse events throughout the observation period (0 to 7 months).
Results:
A total of 240 females were included, among whom 236 completed the full vaccination program, including 79 in the HPV+HEV group, 77 in the HPV group, and 80 in the HEV group. One month after the full course of immunization, the seroconversion rates of HPV16 IgG and HPV18 IgG antibodies in both the HPV+HEV group and the HPV group were 100%, and the differences in seroconversion rates were 0 (95%CI: -3.39%-+∞). The seroconversion rates of HEV IgG antibodies in both the HPV+HEV group and the HEV group were 100%, and the difference in seroconversion rates was 0 (95%CI: -3.27%-+∞). The GMT of HPV16 IgG and HPV18 IgG antibodies in the HPV+HEV group was 393.88 and 284.86 IU/mL respectively, which was not inferior to 489.39 and 341.24 IU/mL in the HPV group, and the GMT ratios were 0.80 (95%CI: 0.66-+∞) and 0.83 (95%CI: 0.68-+∞), respectively. The GMT of HEV IgG in the HPV+HEV group was 13.55 U/mL, which was not inferior to 12.72 U/mL in the HEV group, and the GMT ratio was 1.07 (95%CI: 0.92-+∞). The incidences of pain, pruritus, and induration in the HPV+HEV group were 54.43%, 21.52% and 40.51% respectively, which were significantly higher than 10.39%, 0, and 0 in the HPV group (all P<0.05). The incidences of redness/swelling, muscle pain/general weakness in the HPV+HEV group were 2.53% and 0, respectively, which were significantly lower than 12.50% and 16.25% in the HEV group (both P<0.05).
Conclusion
The co-administration of the bivalent HPV vaccine and HEV vaccine is not inferior to individual vaccination in terms of immunogenicity and safety, and the vaccination plan can be optimized through co-administration.

Objective To investigate the prevalence of Schistosoma japonicum infections in wild rodents in schistosomiasis-endemic areas of China, so as to provide insights into formulation of technical guidelines for monitoring of and the precise control strategy for S. japonicum infections in wild rodents during the elimination phase. Methods Two administrative villages where schistosomiasis was historically highly prevalent were selected each from Dongzhi County, Anhui Province, and Duchang County, Jiangxi Province as study villages. Wild rodents were captured from study villages with baited traps or cages at night in June and September, 2021. The number of rodents captured was recorded, and the rodent species was characterized based on morphologi-cal characteristics. Liver tissues were sampled from captured rodents for macroscopical observation of the presence of egg granu- lomas, and S. japonicum infection was detected simultaneously using liver tissue homogenate microscopy, examinations of mesenteric tissues for parasites, and modified Kato-Katz thick smear technique (Kato-Katz technique). A positive S. japonicum infection was defined as detection of S. japonicum eggs or adult worms by any of these methods. The rate of wild rodent capture and prevalence of S. japonicum infections in wild rodents were compared in different study villages and at different time periods, and the detection of S. japonicum infections in wild rodents was compared by different assays. Results The overall rate of wild ro- dent capture was 8.28% (237/2 861) in Dongzhi County, and the wild rodent capture rates were 9.24% (133/1 439) and 7.31% (104/1 422) in two study villages (χ2 = 3.503, P = 0.061), and were 8.59% (121/1 409) and 7.99% (116/1 452) in June and September, 2021, respectively (χ2 = 0.337, P = 0.561). The overall rate of wild rodent capture was 3.72% (77/2 072) in Duchang County, and the wild rodent capture rates were 6.91% (67/970) and 0.91% (10/1 102) in two study villages (χ2 = 51.901, P < 0.001), and were 4.13% (39/945) and 3.37% (38/1 127) in June and September, 2021, respectively (χ2 = 0.815, P = 0.365). Rattus norvegicus was the predominant rodent species captured in both counties, accounting for 70.04% (166/237) of all captured wild rodents in Dongzhi County and 88.31% (68/77) in Duchang County. No S. japonicum infection was detected in wild rodents captured in Duchang County. Nevertheless, the overall prevalence of S. japonicum infections was 51.05% (121/237) in wild rodents captured in Dongzhi County, with prevalence rates of 50.38% (67/133) and 51.92% (54/104) in two study villages (χ2 = 0.098, P = 0.755), and 54.31% (63/116) and 47.93% (58/121) in September and June, 2021, respectively (χ2 = 0.964, P = 0.326). Of 237 wild rodents captured in Dongzhi County, there were 140 (59.07%) rodents with visible hepatic egg granulomas, 117 (49.47%) tested positive for S. japonicum eggs by liver tissue homogenate microscopy, 34 (14.35%) tested positive for S. japonicum eggs with Kato-Katz technique; however, no adult S. japonicum worms were detected in mesenteric tissues. In addition, hepatic egg granulomas were found in all wild rodents tested positive for S. japonicum eggs with liver tissue homogenate microscopy. Conclusions The rate of wild rodent capture and prevalence of S. japonicum infection in wild rodents vary greatly in schistosomiasis-endemic areas of China, and the prevalence of S. japonicum infection is slightly higher in wild rodents captured in autumn than in summer. Liver tissue is recommended as the preferred sample for surveillance of S. japonicum infection in wild rodents, and a combination of macroscopical observation of hepatic egg granulomas and liver tissue homogenate microscopy may be a standard method for surveillance of S. japonicum infection in wild rodents.

Objective:To analyze the distribution and drug resistance of the pathogen of bloodstream infections in patients with malignancies in Shanxi Province Cancer Hospital.Methods:A retrospective case series study was conducted. A total of 8 654 patients with malignancies whose blood culture was detected in Shanxi Province Cancer Hospital between January 2019 and December 2021 were collected, and venous blood was drawn for blood culture. WHONET 5.6 software and SPSS 23.0 software were used to analyze the distribution and drug resistance of the pathogen of bloodstream infections.Results:A total of 600 (6.9%) pathogens were isolated, including 413 (68.8%) strains of Gram-negative bacteria, 168 (28.0%) strains of Gram-positive bacteria, 19 (3.2%) strains of fungi. The top 5 gram-negative bacteria were Escherichia coli (37.7%), Klebsiella pneumoniae (14.2%), Enterobacter cloacae (4.5%), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (3.0%), and Acinetobacter baumannii (2.5%). The top 5 gram-positive bacteria were Staphylococcus aureus (4.2%), Enterococcus faecium (4.0%), Staphylococcus hominis (3.8%), Staphylococcus epidermidis (3.5%) and Streptococcus (3.0%); except Klebsiella pneumoniae, there were no statistically significant differences in the composition ratio of other major pathogens from 2019 to 2021 (all P > 0.05). The resistance rates of Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae and Enterobacter cloacae to ampicillin were 94.7% (214/226), 100.0% (85/85) and 96.3% (26/27); the resistance rates of those to ciprofloxacin were 61.9% (140/226), 17.6% (15/85) and 7.4% (2/27); and the resistance rates of those to cefoperazone were 62.4% (141/226), 30.6% (26/85) and 25.9% (7/27), respectively. The resistance rates of P. aeruginosa and Acinetobacter baumannii to carbapenems were 5.5% (1/18) and 93.3% (14/15). Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus hominis, Staphylococcus epidermidis were predominantly Staphylococcus. Enterococcus faecium and Enterococcus faecalis were the main types of enterococcus. Positive blood culture samples were mainly distributed in hematology department and intensive care unit. Non-Hodgkin lymphoma (39 strains) and acute myeloid leukemia (12 strains) were the main diseases. Conclusions:The main pathogen of bloodstream infection in patients with malignancies in this area is Gram-negative bacteria, and drug resistance is common. Hospitals should rationally use antibiotics by combining with drug sensitivity test.

Sepsis is a life-threatening organ dysfunction caused by host's dysfunctional response to infection, which is an important cause of health threat worldwide. Recent studies have found that the metabolic disorder of iron homeostasis is closely related to sepsis. The body has a highly accurate iron metabolism and regulation system to prevent iron deficiency or iron overload. The imbalance of intracellular iron homeostasis is now considered to be one of the important mechanisms of sepsis and may be a new target for clinical intervention.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical value of CD4 + T lymphocyte subsets such as helper Th2 in patients with recurrent uveitis (BU) in Beh?et′s disease (BD). Methods:The clinical data of 153 hospitalized patients diagnosed with Beh?et′s disease from January 1, 2020 to June 30, 2023 in the Second Hospital of Shanxi Medical University were retrospectively analyzed. The subsets of CD4 + T lymphocytes were measured, including helper T cells (Th cells) such as Th1, Th2, Th17 and regulatory T cells (Treg cells), biochemical lipid indexes (TC, TG, etc.), the frequency of oral ulcers in the past 1 year, the frequency of genital ulcers in the past 1 year, and drug use before admission;According to whether there was ocular involvement and uveitis, 153 cases of BD were divided into Beh?et non-uveitis group (non-BU group) and Beh?et uveitis group (BU group). The above indexes and independent correlation factors of recurrent BU were compared between BU group and non-BU group;The above indexes and independent correlation factors of recurrent BU were compared between BU group and non-BU group. The levels of cytokines and ICBD total score, the correlation between ICBD total score and various cytokines, and the diagnostic performance of Th2 cells were compared between BU group and non-BU group.The statistical methods were Mann-Whitney U test, independent sample t test, Chi-square test, multiple logistic regression analysis, Pearson correlation analysis and receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) analysis. Results:①The levels of Th1, Th2, Th17 cells, TC and TG in BU group were higher than those in non-BU group [133.87 (93.38, 229.87)/μl vs. 102.51(64.25, 149.23)/μl] and [9.43 (5.84, 14.13)/μl vs. 6.78(4.23, 9.44)/μl], [15.53 (9.36, 25.27)/μl vs. 9.83(5.46, 14.76)/μl], [4.21 (3.89, 4.90) mmol/L vs. 3.89(3.37, 4.34)mmol/L)], [1.43(1.00, 2.21)mmol/L vs. 0.96(0.69, 1.38)mmol/L], The differences were statistically significant ( Z=-3.24, Z=-3.05, Z=-3.94, Z=-2.25, Z=-3.47; all P<0.05); There was no statistical significance in Chi-square test between the two groups ( χ2=5.69, P>0.05).②The levels of IL-2, IL-10 and total ICBD score in BU group were higher than those in non-BU group, with statistical significance ( Z=-2.12, Z=-2.29, t=-6.48; all P<0.05). ③ The results of multiple logistic regression analysis showed that Th2 was an independent correlation factor for BU [ OR value (95% CI) was 1.143(1.007, 1.298), P=0.039]. The total score of BU patients was correlated with Th2 and Th17 cells. ROC analysis showed that the sensitivity of Th2 in diagnosing BU was 68.8%, the specificity was 49.5% and the area under the curve (95% CI) was 0.697 (0.585, 0.809) (P=0.001). Conclusion:CD4 + T lymphocyte subsets such as the absolute number of Th2 cells are related to BU, which is an important indicator to observe the severity of disease progression in BU patients, and has certain clinical value in evaluating the recurrence of BU in BD patients.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical effect of the position pillows for neuraxial anesthesia.Methods:This was a prospective randomized controlled trial. Four hundred and twelve patients regardless of gender, aged ≥18 yr, of American Society of Anesthesiologists Physical Status classification Ⅰ-Ⅲ, who underwent elective surgery under neuraxial anesthesia at Peking University Third Hospital from February to October 2023, were selected and divided into 2 groups ( n=206 each) using a random number table method: pillow group (P group) and control group (C group). Group C underwent the conventional procedure for neuraxial anesthesia. The patients were placed in a position using the position pillow on the basis of oral education before routine anesthesia in group P. The success rate of puncture at first attempt, puncture time and position placement time were recorded. The adjustment of position, body movement and occurrence of discomfort during the puncture were also recorded. The visual analogue scale score was used to evaluate the level of anxiety before positioning, after positioning and after anesthesia. The visual analogue scale score was used to evaluate the patient′s comfort and the operator′s satisfaction with position after the anesthesia was completed. Results:Compared with group C, the time for positioning was significantly shortened, the anxiety level was decreased after positioning and after anesthesia, the rate of improvement in anxiety was increased, the scores for the patient′s comfort and the operator′s satisfaction with position were increased ( P<0.05), and no significant changes were found in the success rate of puncture at first attempt, puncture time and incidence of body movement during the puncture and incidence of the adjustment of position ( P>0.05). No discomfort was observed in either group during the puncture. Conclusions:This new type of position pillows for the neuraxial anesthesia can not only optimize the effect of position placement, but also improve the patients′ comfort.

Objective:To understand the epidemiological characteristics of human respiratory syncytial virus (HRSV) among acute respiratory infection (ARI) cases in 16 provinces of China from 2009 to 2023.Methods:The data of this study were collected from the ARI surveillance data from 16 provinces in China from 2009 to 2023, with a total of 28 278 ARI cases included in the study. The clinical specimens from ARI cases were screened for HRSV nucleic acid from 2009 to 2023, and differences in virus detection rates among cases of different age groups, regions, and months were analyzed.Results:A total of 28 278 ARI cases were enrolled from January 2009 to September 2023. The age of the cases ranged from<1 month to 112 years, and the age M ( Q1, Q3) was 3 years (1 year, 9 years). Among them, 3 062 cases were positive for HRSV nucleic acid, with a total detection rate of 10.83%. From 2009 to 2019, the detection rate of HRSV was 9.33%, and the virus was mainly prevalent in winter and spring. During the Corona Virus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, the detection rate of HRSV fluctuated between 6.32% and 18.67%. There was no traditional winter epidemic peak of HRSV from the end of 2022 to the beginning of 2023, and an anti-seasonal epidemic of HRSV occurred from April to May 2023. About 87.95% (2 693/3 062) of positive cases were children under 5 years old, and the difference in the detection rate of HRSV among different age groups was statistically significant ( P<0.001), showing a decreasing trend of HRSV detection rate with the increase of age ( P<0.001). Among them, the HRSV detection rate (25.69%) was highest in children under 6 months. Compared with 2009-2019, the ranking of HRSV detection rates in different age groups changed from high to low between 2020 and 2023, with the age M (Q1, Q3) of HRSV positive cases increasing from 1 year (6 months, 3 years) to 2 years (11 months, 3 years). Conclusion:Through 15 years of continuous HRSV surveillance analysis, children under 5 years old, especially infants under 6 months old, are the main high-risk population for HRSV infection. During the COVID-19 pandemic, the prevalence and patterns of HRSV in China have changed.

As a malignant hematological disease mainly originating from T or B lymphoid progenitor cell, acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL) is more prevalent in children. With the gradual revelation of the autophagy mechanism, the role of autophagy in ALL has gained increasing attention. Autophagy can not only stimulate the survival of leukemia cells as an adaptive response, but also inhibit cell proliferation in some other cases. Therefore, how to regulate autophagy in promoting death or survival and reduce the drug resistance in ALL has become a hotspot. This article reviews the role of autophagy in ALL.
