Heuristic teaching is propitious to cultivating students' ideation. We have used different heuristic modes for example problems, stories, contrast, associationin and so on to cultivate medical students' ideation in pathobiology and immunology teaching and acquired good effect.

Atmospheric particulate matter has an association with respiratory system inflammation, and low molecular weight hyaluronic acid (LMW-HA) is a key biomarker of inflammatory cascade reaction. This review summarized the possible pathways and biomarkers of atmospheric particulate matter causing respiratory system inflammation through high molecular weight hyaluronic acid (HMW-HA)/LMW-HA imbalance, including the synthesis and decomposition of HA, the reduction of particulate matter and HMW-HA, the increase of LMW-HA, and the relationship between LMW-HA and respiratory system inflammation. Furthermore, inhibitors and therapeutic drugs targeting certain biomarkers were further listed. This review could shed light on the mechanism of respiratory system inflammation caused by atmospheric particulate matter and the weak points that need attention in subsequent research.

SARS-CoV-2 has infected more than 600 million people worldwide and caused more than 6 million deaths. The emerging novel variants have made the epidemic rebound in many places. Meteorological factors can affect the epidemic spread by changing virus activity, transmission dynamic parameters and host susceptibility. This paper systematically analyzed the currently available laboratory and epidemiological studies on the association between the meteorological factors and COVID-19 incidence, in order to provide scientific evidence for future epidemic control and prevention, as well as developing early warning system.
