Objective: To analyze the change trends in the body shape indicators and proportions of students in Harbin from 2010 to 2024, and to investigate ergonomic compatibility of functional dimensions of school desks and chairs with current student shape indicators, so as to provide a reference for revising furniture standards of desks and chairs. Methods: Between September and November of both 2010 and 2024, a combination of convenience sampling and stratified cluster random sampling was conducted across three districts in Harbin, yielding samples of 6 590 and 6 252 students, respectively. Anthropometric shape indicators cluding height, sitting height, crus length, and thigh length-and their proportional changes were compared over the 15-year period. The 2024 data were compared with current standard functional dimensions of school furniture. The statistical analysis incorporated t-test and Mann-Whitney U- test. Results: From 2010 to 2024, average height increased by 1.8 cm for boys and 1.5 cm for girls; sitting height increased by 1.5 cm for both genders; crus length increased by 0.3 cm for boys and 0.4 cm for girls; and thigh length increased by 0.5 cm for both genders. The ratios of sitting height to height, and sitting height to leg length increased by less than 0.1 . The difference between desk chair height and 1/3 sitting height ranged from 0.4-0.8 cm. Among students matched with size 0 desks and chairs, 22.0% had a desk to chair height difference less than 0, indicating that the desk to chair height difference might be insufficient for taller students. The differences between seat height and fibular height ranged from -1.4 to 1.1 cm; and the differences between seat depth and buttock popliteal length ranged from -9.8 to 3.4 cm. Among obese students, the differences between seat width and 1/2 hip circumference ranged from -20.5 to -8.7 cm, while it ranged from -12.2 to -3.8 cm among non obese students. Conclusion Current furniture standards basically satisfy hygienic requirements; however, in the case of exceptionally tall and obese students, ergonomic accommodations such as adaptive seating allocation or personalized adjustments are recommended to meet hygienic requirements.

Objective: To explore the potential category patterns of risk prevention and control behaviors of HIV infection among young students who have sex with men (MSM) and their impact on HIV infection and late detection, aiming to optimize intervention strategies. Methods: From September 2017 to December 2024, a total of 1 637 MSM young students in Tianjin were recruited through both online and offline channels. Latent class analysis was applied to classify 11 HIV risk prevention and control behaviors [condom use during the most recent anal sex in the past 6 months, consistent condom use, use of water based lubricants, abstinence from recreational drugs, regular on site professional testing, fixed sexual partners, partner testing, awareness of partner s HIV testing results, testing before sexual activity, nucleic acid testing, and use of pre exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) or post exposure prophylaxis (PEP)]. Multivariate Logistic regression analyzed associations between demographic characteristics/intervention services factors and latent classes. Differences in HIV infection and late detection across behavior patterns were compared. Results: HIV risk prevention and control behaviors among MSM students were classified into three latent classes:condom dependent group (38.42%), low prevention group (27.73%), and comprehensive prevention group (33.85%). Students who received condom promotion/testing services were more likely to belong to the comprehensive prevention group ( OR =5.58), while those who received peer education were less likely to the comprehensive prevention group ( OR =0.43) (both P <0.01). Among the MSM student population, the HIV infection rate was 4.83%, with 2.26% of cases detected late. The HIV infection rate (1.45%) and late detection proportion (0.82%) in the comprehensive prevention group were lower than those in the low prevention group (7.89% and 3.83%, respectively) ( χ 2=16.20, 7.31, both P <0.01). Conclusions HIV risk prevention and control behaviors among MSM young students exhibit significant heterogeneity. Comprehensive prevention strategies can effectively reduce HIV infection and late detection risks. It is necessary to optimize peer education content and improve the accessibility of diversified prevention measures such as PrEP/PEP to enhance HIV prevention and control.

OBJECTIVE To comprehensively evaluate the efficacy， safety and cost-effectiveness of insulin icodec in treating type 2 diabetes mellitus （T2DM）， providing evidence-based guidance for new drug selection in hospital and clinical medication decision-making. METHODS PubMed， Cochrane Library， Embase， CNKI， Wanfang， VIP and foreign health technology assessment （HTA） websites were searched by using rapid health technology assessment from inception to 15 July 2025 for systematic reviews/meta-analyses， pharmacoeconomic studies， and HTA reports on insulin icodec in the treatment of T2DM. After data extraction and quality assessment， the findings of the included studies were analyzed descriptively. RESULTS Ten systematic reviews/meta-analyses and three pharmacoeconomic studies were included. Among them， 4 systematic reviews/meta-analyses were of high quality； the overall quality of the 3 pharmacoeconomic studies was relatively good. Regarding efficacy， insulin icodec was superior to once-daily basal insulin in reducing glycated hemoglobin （HbA1c） and in achieving the target of HbA1c＜7% （P＜0.05）. No significant differences were observed between icodec insulin and comparators in lowering fasting plasma glucose （P＞0.05）. For safety， insulin icodec did not increase the incidence of any adverse events （AEs）， serious AEs， clinically significant hypoglycemia （random glucose＜3 mmol/L）， injection-site reactions， or allergic reactions， compared with once-daily basal insulin overall （P＞ 0.05）； however， insulin icodec was associated with a significant increase in body weight （P＜0.05）. Domestic economic evaluations indicated that insulin icodec was more cost-effective than insulin glargine and insulin degludec when its annual costs were in the range of 784.90-1 145.96 and 597.66-736.34 US dollars， respectively. CONCLUSIONS Insulin icodec demonstrates favorable efficacy and safety profiles in the treatment of T2DM； however， attention should be paid to the risk of weight gain. Under China’s healthcare system， insulin icodec demonstrates greater economic value only when the patient’s weekly required basal insulin dose falls within a specific range，and clinical practice requires individualization.

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic autoimmune disease characterized by persistent inflammation and joint damage, accompanied by the accumulation of plasma cells, which contributes to its pathogenesis. Understanding the genetic alterations occurring during plasma cell differentiation in RA can deepen our comprehension of its pathogenesis and guide the development of targeted therapeutic interventions. Here, our study elucidates the intricate molecular mechanisms underlying plasma cell differentiation by demonstrating that PRDX1 interacts with DOK3 and modulates its degradation by the autophagy-lysosome pathway. This interaction results in the inhibition of plasma cell differentiation, thereby alleviating the progression of collagen-induced arthritis. Additionally, our investigation identifies Salvianolic acid B (SAB) as a potent small molecular glue-like compound that enhances the interaction between PRDX1 and DOK3, consequently impeding the progression of collagen-induced arthritis by inhibiting plasma cell differentiation. Collectively, these findings underscore the therapeutic potential of developing chemical stabilizers for the PRDX1-DOK3 complex in suppressing plasma cell differentiation for RA treatment and establish a theoretical basis for targeting PRDX1-protein interactions as specific therapeutic targets in various diseases.

Coptis chinensis Franch. and Panax ginseng C. A. Mey. are traditional herbal medicines with millennia of documented use and broad therapeutic applications, including anti-diabetic properties. However, the synergistic effect of total alkaloids from Coptis chinensis and total ginsenosides from Panax ginseng on type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and its underlying mechanism remain unclear. The research demonstrated that the optimal ratio of total alkaloids from Coptis chinensis and total ginsenosides from Panax ginseng was 4∶1, exhibiting maximal efficacy in improving insulin resistance and gluconeogenesis in primary mouse hepatocytes. This combination demonstrated significant synergistic effects in improving glucose tolerance, reducing fasting blood glucose (FBG), the weight ratio of epididymal white adipose tissue (eWAT), and the homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) in leptin receptor-deficient (db/db) mice. Subsequently, a T2DM liver-specific network was constructed based on RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) experiments and public databases by integrating transcriptional properties of disease-associated proteins and protein-protein interactions (PPIs). The network recovery index (NRI) score of the combined treatment group with a 4∶1 ratio exceeded that of groups treated with individual components. The research identified that activated adenosine 5'-monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK)/acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC) signaling in the liver played a crucial role in the synergistic treatment of T2DM, as verified by western blot experiment in db/db mice. These findings demonstrate that the 4∶1 combination of total alkaloids from Coptis chinensis and total ginsenosides from Panax ginseng significantly improves insulin resistance and glucose and lipid metabolism disorders in db/db mice, surpassing the efficacy of individual treatments. The synergistic mechanism correlates with enhanced AMPK/ACC signaling pathway activity.

OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to explore the expression of lysosomal-associated membrane protein 5 (LAMP5) and microRNA (miR)-302a-3p in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) and their functional mechanism on the invasion and metastasis of OSCC. METHODS: The expression of LAMP5 in OSCC and its sensitivity as a prognostic indicator were analyzed on the basis of The Cancer Genome Atlas database. Western blot, quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction, and cell immunocytochemistry were used to detect the expression of LAMP5 in OSCC tissues and cells. The effect of LAMP5 on the proliferation, migration, and invasion of OSCC cells was evaluated through cell counting kit-8, immunocytochemistry, migration, and invasion assays, respectively. The miRNA targeting prediction websites were used to predict the miR that regulates LAMP5 and verify the targeted regulatory effect of miR-302a-3p on LAMP5. The effect of LAMP5 knockdown on OSCC tumor growth was evaluated in a nude mouse tumorigenesis model. RESULTS: LAMP5 was highly expressed in OSCC tissues and cells. It showed high sensitivity in the early diagnosis of OSCC. LAMP5 knockdown significantly inhibited the proliferation, migration, and invasion of OSCC cells, whereas LAMP5 overexpression increased these cell activities. The expression of LAMP5 was regulated by miR-302a-3p. In vivo, LAMP5 knockdown significantly inhibited the growth of OSCC tumor. CONCLUSIONS LAMP5 promotes the malignant progression of OSCC by enhancing the proliferation, migration, and invasion of OSCC cells. The expression of LAMP5 is negatively regulated by miR-302a-3p.

Notably, trainees from the 2020 and 2021 grade cohorts, with a master′s degree or above, having led research projects, having participated in research integrity training, and with a high level of research integrity knowledge scored higher on the cognitive assessment of the impact of research misconduct.Conclusions:Training bases should prioritize the education of research integrity among trainees, enhance their identification with scientific research integrity, raise their awareness of the seriousness of the consequences of scientific misconduct, and uphold the belief of adhering to the bottom line of academic ethics.

The establishment of an intelligent audit system for hospital medical insurance is crucial for standardizing irrational practices and curbing the unwarranted escalation of medical insurance costs. A tertiary hospital has developed comprehensive prescription review rules in terms of indications, nutritional risk assessments, pain score evaluations, drug sensitivity test results, and target patient populations. When using medical insurance funds for settlement, both systematic and manual reviews are conducted, and three-level intervention measures such as " prompt, review, and interception" are implemented based on prescription issues. After the system was put into use, the hospital′s in-process information system supervision mode shifted from the previous focus on prompts to focus on audits. The medical insurance intelligent audit system provided timely prompts and interventions, and the number of unreasonable medical insurance prescriptions and deductions from medical insurance sampling prescriptions significantly decreased ( P<0.001), while the number of medical insurance medication prescription audits increased ( P<0.001). The application of the intelligent medical insurance medication audit system has improved the efficiency of prescription auditing and ensured the rationality of the use of medical insurance funds.

Objective Through the detection of treponema pallida antibody in the unpaid blood donors in Wenzhou area,the recall self-test and recall test were carried out on the blood donors who were reactive to enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA)test,and the feasibility of the recall plan was evaluated.Methods From January 2021 to May 2023,275 652 blood donors who successfully participated in unpaid blood donation were tested by anti-treponema pallidum(TP)ELISA,the reactivity rate and S/CO value of different reagents were compared,and the reactivity of single reagent was detected by ELISA.In addition,24 blood donors who volunteered to participate in the recall more than six months after the last blood donation screening were informed of the recall by way of interview,targeted health consultation,general examination and preliminary screening test were passed,and blood samples were collected for recall self-test and recall test.Results A total of 275 652 people were tested by anti-TP ELISA,and 627 cases were found to be reactive,with a reactivity rate of 0.23% ,including a double reagent reactivity rate of 0.12% and a single reagent reactivity rate of 0.11% .The ratio of S/CO≥5.00 with double reagent was 73.6% (240/326),and the ratio of S/CC＜5.00 with single reagent was 92.4% (278/301).24 people entered the recall process,20 people were successfully recalled,3 people failed to pass the self-test and 1 person failed to pass the test.The recall success rate was 83.3% (20/24).Conclusion The problem of false reactivity of anti-TP ELISA test single reagent in blood collection and supply institutions is prominent.Through the established recall scheme,the self-test and recall test of blood donors with strong recall intention can not only ensure the safety of blood donors,but also improve the construction of blood collection and supply service system.
