Objective To investigate the effect of body position angle on gastric insufflation during the induction of general anesthesia in pediatric patients undergoing day surgery.Methods A total of 111 children scheduled for elective tracheal intubation under general anesthesia at the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangxi Medical University from December 2022 to March 2023 were selected as study subjects.Six children were ex-cluded due to unclear sonographic visualization of the gastric antrum,resulting in 105 children ultimately in-cluded in the study.The children were divided into three groups using a random number table method:Group D0(supine position),Group D5(5° head-up position),and Group D10(10° head-up position),with 35 children in each group.The presence of a"comet-tail artifact"on ultrasound was used as the criterion for determining gastric insufflation during anesthesia induction.The gastric antrum cross-sectional area(CSA)of the gastric antrum was measured before mask ventilation after loss of consciousness(T1)and immediately after tracheal intubation following mask ventilation(T2).The incidence of gastric insufflation,changes in CSA and their differences,and vital sign changes at T1 and T2,were compared among the three groups.Results Compared with Group D0,the incidence of gastric insufflation was significantly lower in Groups D5 and D10[25.7％(9/35)vs.20.0％(7/35)vs.54.0％(19/35)],and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).Howev-er,there was no significant difference between Group D5 and Group D10(P＞0.05).No significant difference was observed in CSA at T1 among the three groups(P＞0.05).At T2,a statistically significant difference in CSA was found among the three groups(P＜0.05),with Group D10 showing a smaller CSA than Group D0(P＜0.05).The difference in CSA changes was statistically significant among the three groups(P＜0.05),with Groups D5 and D10 exhibiting smaller changes than Group D0,and Group D10 showing a smaller change than Group D5(P＜0.05).No significant differences were observed in mean artery pressure(MAP),heart rate,pulse oxygen saturation(SpO2)and pressure of end-tidal carbon dioxide(PETCO2)at T1 and T2 among the three groups(P＞0.05).A total of 6 children(5.7％)required brief adjustments in jaw support due to irregular PETCO2 waveforms or abnormal peak airway pressure.Conclusion In pediatric patients undergoing day sur-gery under general anesthesia,a 5° head-up position during induction significantly reduces the incidence of gas-tric insufflation and minimizes changes in gastric antral CSA,while a 10° head-up position does not provide ad-ditional benefits.

Objective:To analyze the association between healthcare workers mental health,institu-tional supplies and facilities,inter-organizational coordination during infectious disease outbreaks,and the healthcare institution resilience.Methods:An online questionnaire survey was conducted among the healthcare workforce from 146 institutions in Beijing from January 13,2023 to February 9,2023,and a total of 1 434 eligible respondents were included.The sample comprised 408 responses from tertiary hos-pitals,117 from secondary hospitals,and 909 from primary care institutions.The resilience indicator for healthcare institutions was defined as the degree to which medical services met patient demands,with in-fluencing factors including physical factors,such as material shortages and facility space adaptation or ex-pansion,organizational factors such as information sharing and patient referral,and psychological factors were evaluated using job satisfaction(extrinsic satisfaction,intrinsic satisfaction),burnout(emotional exhaustion,depersonalization,reduced personal accomplishment),and depression status.Ordered mul-ticlassification Logistic regression was used to examine the impact of various factors on the degree to which healthcare services met patient needs;additionally,demographic factors that might influence institutional resilience were controlled.Results:During the emergency response phase,93％of hospitals maintained the capacity to meet patient needs,though tertiary hospitals demonstrated significantly higher rates of service inadequacy(21.05％).Material shortages were reported across all institutions,with tertiary hos-pitals experiencing more frequent multi-item shortages.Inter-institutional collaboration patterns revealed substantial variation:87.50％of primary care facilities,42.86％of secondary hospitals,and 31.58％of tertiary hospitals.Healthcare workers across all levels reported mild depressive symptoms and moderate-to-severe burnout levels.Regression analysis showed high satisfaction(overall satisfaction β=0.04,ex-trinsic satisfaction β=0.06,and intrinsic satisfaction β=0.08),low degree of job burnout(emotional exhaustion β=-0.04,depersonalization β=-0.07 and reduced personal accomplishment β=0.01),low degree of depression(β=-0.06)were significantly associated with higher healthcare institution re-silience.In addition,material shortages were significantly associated with lower resilience,and renova-tion and expansion of treatment spaces,and information sharing,were all associated with higher resilience.Demographic factors(age,gender,marital status,educational background,etc.)had no sig-nificant impact on resilience.Conclusion:Mental health status significantly influences healthcare institu-tion resilience.As human resources constitute the core asset of healthcare institutions,strategic optimiza-tion of workforce allocation and psychological support interventions can effectively strengthen resilience.Moreover,healthcare institution resilience is positively impacted by orderly material supply chains,timely resource distribution,and adaptive reconfiguration of clinical spaces.Finally,facilitating information sharing also enhances institutional resilience.

The medical mask,which is used as an important tool of preventing the spread of respiratory diseases,can effectively block the transmission of biological aerosols.The detection for the filtration efficiency of bacteria in medical mask is particular importance.The Andersen sampler,is one kind of device that samples microbial aerosols,is widely used in the inspection for the filtration efficiency for bacteria in medical masks.It mainly consists of six impactors with different pore sizes.It simulates the deposition process of the most of particles at different positions in respiratory system through the bacterial particles in biological aerosols impact respectively the surface of petri dishes with agar under different pore sizes.This paper explored the development background,structure and sampling principle,operation and counting procedures of the Andersen sampler,as well as its application and importance in the inspection for the filtration efficiency for bacteria in medical mask.

Addressing the enduring challenge of evaluating traditional Chinese medicines (TCMs), the integrated evidence chain-based effectiveness evaluation of TCMs (Eff-iEC) has emerged. This paper explored its capacity through a demonstration study that evaluated the effectiveness evidence of six commonly used anti-hepatic fibrosis Chinese patent medicines (CPMs), including Biejiajian Pill (BP), Dahuang Zhechong Pill (DZP), Biejia Ruangan Compound (BRC), Fuzheng Huayu Capsule (FHC), Anluo Huaxian Pill (AHP), and Heluo Shugan Capsule (HSC), using both Eff-iEC and the Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development, and Evaluation (GRADE) system. The recognition of these CPMs within the TCM academic community was also assessed through their inclusion in relevant medical documents. Results showed that the evidence of BRC and FHC received higher assessments in both Eff-iEC and GRADE system, while the assessments for others varied. Analysis of community recognition revealed that Eff-iEC more accurately reflects the clinical value of these CPMs, exhibiting superior evaluative capabilities. By breaking through the conventional pattern of TCMs effectiveness evaluation, Eff-iEC offers a novel epistemology that better aligns with the clinical realities and reasoning of TCMs, providing a coherent methodology for clinical decision-making, new drug evaluations, and health policy formulation.

Objective:To investigate the impact of High Alcohol-Producing Klebsiella pneumoniae (HiAlc Kpn) on hepatocyte function and explore its regulatory mechanism from the perspective of epigenetic modifications. Methods:Using the HepG2 cell line as the research model, the study involved exposing the cells to alcohol and three different HiAlc Kpn strains in vitro, dividing them into a control group, alcohol-treated group, W8 group, 3-24 group, and 4-26 group. The effect of HiAlc Kpn on liver cell proliferation was investigated using the Incucyte live cell imaging system, and the apoptotic level of liver cells was determined using flow cytometry. The fluorescence confocal microscopy combined with live cell probes was used to detect lipid accumulation and intracellular ROS levels in liver cells. The amount of mitochondrial damage was determined using flow cytometry combined with the seahorse cell metabolism analyzer, and changes in protein levels undergoing global lactylation modification were investigated using Western blotting. Results:Compared with the control group, HiAlc Kpn strains W8, 3-24 and 4-26 could decrease the proliferation rate and increase the ratio of apoptosis of hepatocyte HepG2 cells. The results of high-content cell imaging showed that the fluorescence points of ROS enrichment in HepG2 cells were increased after HiAlc Kpn treatment. The lipid accumulation was significantly increased by oil red O and BODIPY staining. The number of oil droplets and fluorescence points was higher than those in the control group and alcohol treatment group. The results of flow cytometry showed that the ratio of JC-1 monomer/polymer was significantly increased after alcohol and three kinds of HiAlc Kpn were treated and the W8 treatment group was about six times higher than the control group ( P<0.05). Seahorse Energy Metabolism System′s mitochondrial pressure test results showed that the extracellular acidification degree and oxygen consumption rate were significantly reduced by the HiAlc Kpn 4-26 strain. Western blot analysis showed that the pan-lactylation modification level increased after high-concentration alcohol treatment and the increased rate of pan-lactylation modification in the 1 000 mmol/L alcohol group was about three times that of the control group. HiAlc Kpn W8 and 3-24 strains resulted in four or two-times pan-lactylation modification increases compared with the control group, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). Conclusion:HiAlc Kpn can induce lipid peroxidation in hepatic cells by regulating the increase in histone pan-lactylation modification levels, leading to mitochondrial damage, impaired cell proliferation capacity and increased apoptosis levels.
