BACKGROUND: Death burden of stroke is severe with over one-third rural residents in China, but there is still a lack of specific national and high-quality reports on the urban-rural differences in stroke burden, especially for subtypes. We aimed to update the understanding of urban-rural differences in stroke deaths. METHODS: This is a descriptive observational study. Data from the national mortality surveillance system, which covers 323.8 million with 605 disease surveillance points (DSPs) across all 31 provinces, municipalities, and autonomous regions in China. All deaths from stroke as the underlying cause from 2015 to 2020 according to DSPs. Crude mortality rate and age-standardized mortality rate (ASMR) were estimated through DSPs. Average annual percentage change was used to explain the change in mortality rate. RESULTS: From 2015 to 2020, the majority of deaths from all stroke subtypes occurred in rural areas. There were significant differences between the changes of urban and rural ASMRs. On the whole, the changes in urban areas were evidently better, and the ASMR differences were basically expanding. Stroke ASMR in urban China decreased by 15.5%. The rural ASMR of ischemic stroke increased by 12.9%. The rural and urban ASMRs of intracerebral hemorrhage decreased by 24.9% and 27.4%, and those of subarachnoid hemorrhage decreased by 29.5% and 40.4%, respectively. The highest ASMRs of all stroke subtypes and the increasing trend of ischemic stroke ASMR make rural males the focus of stroke management. CONCLUSIONS The death burden of stroke varies greatly between urban and rural China. Rural residents face unique challenges.

Antimicrobial resistance poses a serious threat to public health and is one of the major challenges worldwide. As global social, economic, and environmental changes lead to increased exposure of populations to antimicrobials, the antimicrobial resistance of pathogens has accelerated and resulted in weakened clinical infection treatment effects. This article reviews the main mechanisms and driving factors of the production and spread of antimicrobial resistance from the perspective of "One Health"and discusses methods and strategies for controlling antimicrobial resistance from multiple dimensions. It also looks forward to the prospects of research and prevention of drug resistance to explore antimicrobial resistance prevention and control strategies based on "One Health".

Objective:Osteosarcoma is a highly aggressive primary malignant bone tumor commonly seen in children and adolescents,with a poor prognosis.Anchorage-dependent cell death(anoikis)has been proven to be indispensable in tumor metastasis,regulating the migration and adhesion of tumor cells at the primary site.However,as a type of programmed cell death,anoikis is rarely studied in osteosarcoma,especially in the tumor immune microenvironment.This study aims to clarify prognostic value of anoikis and tumor immune microenvironment-related gene in the treatment of osteosarcoma. Methods:Anoikis-related genes(ANRGs)were obtained from GeneCards.Clinical information and ANRGs expression profiles of osteosarcoma patients were sourced from the therapeutically applicable research to generate effective therapies and Gene Expression Omnibus(GEO)databases.ANRGs highly associated with tumor immune microenvironment were identified by the estimate package and the weighted gene coexpression network analysis(WGCNA)algorithm.Machine learning algorithms were performed to construct long-term survival predictive strategy,each sample was divided into high-risk and low-risk subgroups,which was further verified in the GEO cohort.Finally,based on single-cell RNA-seq from the GEO database,analysis was done on the function of signature genes in the osteosarcoma tumor microenvironment. Results:A total of 51 hub ANRGs closely associated with the tumor microenvironment were identified,from which 3 genes(MERTK,BNIP3,S100A8)were selected to construct the prognostic model.Significant differences in immune cell activation and immune-related signaling pathways were observed between the high-risk and low-risk groups based on tumor microenvironment analysis(all P<0.05).Additionally,characteristic genes within the osteosarcoma microenvironment were identified in regulation of intercellular crosstalk through the GAS6-MERTK signaling pathway. Conclusion:The prognostic model based on ANRGs and tumor microenvironment demonstrate good predictive power and provide more personalized treatment options for patients with osteosarcoma.

ObjectiveTo study the pathway of cis-dichlorodiamineplatinum (DDP) inhibiting the synthesis of steroid hormones in mice, and to observe the intervention effect of dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA).MethodsSixty adult ICR mice were randomly divided into three groups: control group, DDP modeling group, and DHEA group, with 10 male and 10 female mice in each group. The DDP modeling group mice were intraperitoneally injected with DDP solution at a dose of 2.5 mg·kg^-1·d^-1, once every 3 days, a total of 7 times. On the same day of modeling, the control group mice were injected with an equal amount of physiological saline intraperitoneally. The DEHA treatment group mice were treated with DDP and given a dose of 8.3 mg·kg^-1·d ^-1 of DHEA by gavage for 21 consecutive days. The changes of fatigue indexes of mice were observed by open field, grip and rod rotation tests. The morphology changes of adrenal gland, testicular and ovarian tissue were observed by pathological section and HE staining. The levels of serum steroid hormones were detected by high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS). The mRNA and protein expression levels of the related genes of the hypothalamus, hypophysis, adrenal, testis and ovary were tested by real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) and Western blotting.ResultsCompared with control group, both male and female mice in DDP modeling group were significantly losing weight (P＜0.05), their abilities in horizontal movement and vertical movement decreased (all P＜0.05), and the stay time and grip also significantly decreased (all P＜0.05) in female mice. Indexes of fatigue were improved after DHEA supplement (all P＜0.05). In the DDP modeling group, the arrangement of spermatogenic cells at all levels in the testicular tissue was disordered and the testicular interstitial edema was observed, and a large number of primordial follicles in the ovarian tissue were activated, the number of atresia follicles increased, and the number of granulosa cells in the follicles decreased; while in the DHEA group, the damaged phenotype of testicles and ovaries was significantly improved. Compared with control group, the levels of serum testosterone and dihydrotestosterone in both male and female DDP modeling mice significantly decreased (P＜0.01), the pregnenolone was down-regulated but corticosterone was up-regulated significantly (P＜0.05) in male mice, the corticosterone was down-regulated significantly (P＜0.05) in female mice. Compared with the DDP group, after DHEA supplement, the pregnenolone in male mice and the progesterone in female mice increased significantly (P＜0.05), but the pregnenolone in female mice and the progesterone in male mice decreased significantly (P＜0.05). Compared with control group, the expression levels of Cyp21a1 and Cyp11a1 genes in the adrenal gland and Gnrh gene in the hypothalamus of male and female mice in the DDP modeling group significantly decreased (all P＜0.05); the expression levels of Hsd3b2 gene in the adrenal gland, Star, Cyp11a1, and Lhr genes in the ovaries, Crh, Pomc, and Lhb genes in the hypothalamus, pituitary, and pituitary of female mice significantly decreased (all P＜0.05); the expression levels of Star gene and StAR protein in the testicles of male mice, as well as Fshb and Lhb genes in the pituitary gland, were significantly down-regulated (all P＜0.05). After DHEA supplement, compared with the DDP modeling group, the mRNA expression levels of Cyp17a1 in the adrenal gland of male mice and Cyp17a1, Lhr and Fshr genes in testis were down-regulated significantly (P＜0.05); the expression level of Cyp11a1 gene in the adrenal gland of female mice was also decreased (P＜0.05); while the expression levels of Hsd3b2 gene in the adrenal gland, Star, Cyp11a1, Hsd3b2 and Lhr gene in the ovary, and Lhb gene in the pituitary gland were all up-regulated ( P＜0.05).ConclusionThe function of hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal/gonadal axis was inhibited by DDP intermittent injection, especially in female. Supplementation of DHEA can help regulate the homeostasis of steroid hormone levels.

ObjectiveTo explore the influence of the core symptoms of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder （ADHD） on behavioral problems of children with ADHD propensity， so as to provide references for early identification and targeted intervention for children with ADHD propensity. MethodsFrom July to August 2021， 25 children with ADHD propensity were screened as the ADHD propensity group， and 25 children matched for age， gender and grade were included as the normal group in an elementary school in Guangzhou. ADHD core symptoms were assessed by the Chinese version of the Swanson Nolan and Pelham， version IV-parent form for ADHD （SNAP-IV）， and behavioral problems were assessed by Questionnaire-Children with Difficulties （QCD） and Conners Parental Symptom Questionnaire （PSQ）. Spearman correlation analysis was used to examine the correlation between ADHD core symptoms and QCD and PSQ scores， and hierarchical linear regression analysis was used to explore the effect of ADHD core symptoms on behavioral problems. Results① The differences between the groups showed that both attention deficit and hyperactivity-impulsivity factor scores were higher in the ADHD propensity group than those in the normal group （t=7.771， 6.726， P<0.01）. ② Correlation analysis showed that the attention deficit factor score was negatively correlated with QCD total score （r=-0.440， P<0.05）， and positively correlated with the learning problem factor score of PSQ （r=0.457， P<0.05）. The score of hyperactivity-impulsivity was negatively correlated with score of anxiety factor in PSQ （r=-0.457， P<0.05）， and positively correlated with impulse-hyperactivity factor score （r=0.552， P<0.01）. ③ Hierarchical linear regression analysis showed that the attention deficit factor score negatively predicted the total score of QCD （B=-0.682， P<0.05， R²=0.468）. The hyperactivity-impulsivity factor score had a negative predictive effect on the anxiety factor score of PSQ （B=-0.048， P<0.05， R²=0.367）， and had a positive predictive effect on the impulsivity-hyperactivity factor score （B=0.077， P<0.01， R²=0.424）. ConclusionChildren with ADHD propensity have significant attention deficit symptoms， hyperactivity-impulsivity symptoms and behavioral problems， and the attention deficit may be the main cause of their daily behavioral problems， while hyperactivity-impulsivity may be the main cause of their impulsive-hyperactivity problems.

Objective:To explore the intervention effect of different modes of ankle pump exercise on femoral vein peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC) catheter-related thrombosis in patients with lung cancer.Methods:Using the convenient sampling method, 96 cases of lung cancer patients with femoral vein PICC catheterization admitted to Xiangya Hospital of Central South University from January 2019 to October 2020 were set as the control group and 97 cases of lung cancer patients with femoral vein PICC cannula from October 2020 to October 2021 were set as the observation group. They adopted the comfort angle ankle pump exercise and the maximum angle ankle pump exercise mode, respectively. The differences in the incidence of catheter-related thrombosis, the incidence of unplanned extubation, fatigue score and catheter indwelling time were compared between the two groups.Results:The incidence of catheter-related thrombosis and unplanned extubation in the observation group were lower than those in the control group, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05) . The fatigue score and catheter indwelling time of the observation group were higher than those of the control group, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:The maximum angle ankle pump motion mode can reduce the incidence of catheter-related thrombosis and unplanned extubation of femoral vein PICC catheterization in patients with lung cancer and improve the catheter indwelling time, but it is easy to cause patient fatigue, so clinical promotion and use should consider the patients' tolerance.

Objective:To understand the willingness of contracted residents to renew the family doctor contract service in Shandong Province, and to explore its influencing factors.Methods:From July to August 2020, 1 500 contracted residents in 3cities of Shandong Province were investigated by questionnaire survey.Descriptive statistical analysis, Mann-Whitney U test and binary logistic regression model were used to analyze the contracted residents′ cognition, utilization, satisfaction evaluation and renewal intention of family doctor contract service. Results:1 445 valid questionnaires were obtained, of which 682(47.2%)were willing to renew their contracts.The results of binary logistic regression analysis showed that marital status, educational level, time to see a doctor in contracted institutions, optimism about the development prospect of contracted service policy, whether the proportion of medical insurance reimbursement increased after signing the contract, whether follow-up work was carried out on time, satisfaction with family doctor service attitude and satisfaction with the effect of disease treatment were factors affecting the willingness of contracted residents to renew the contract.Conclusions:The contracted residents in Shandong Province have a high willingness to renew their contracts. On the basis of consolidating and improving the policy cognition and confidence of the contracted residents, we should actively optimize and improve the contracted service quality, ensure the sense of service access of contracted residents, and continuously and effectively realize the comprehensive promotion of the contracted services of family doctors.

Objective:To explore the current status of medical preventive integration at primary medical institutions, analyze the problems of medical prevention integration, and put forward optimization suggestions.Methods:From June to July 2020, 169 primary medical institutions in a city were selected as the survey objects to conduct a questionnaire survey on the basic information of institutions and the evaluation indicators of medical preventive integration. The evaluation index system of medical preventive integration was divided into a factual survey and a sensory survey. In addition, 32 relevant personnel were interviewed on the current situation of medical preventive integration at primary medical institutions. The reliability and validity of the data were tested and analyzed, while descriptive analysis and classification extraction analysis were carried out.Results:The reliability and validity analysis proved the data reliability. The factual survey extracted three common factors, namely organization management, performance appraisal distribution and information management. The sensory survey extracted two common factors, namely working mode and personnel training. In terms of organization, management and working methods, the degree of medical preventive integration was low. Among them, 53.8% of the institutions had formulated the medical preventive integration norms, and only 41.4% of them had shared residents′ health information in time.Conclusions:The degree of medical preventive integration of primary medical institutions in the city still need to be improved. In the future, we should strengthen the top-level design, establish the norms and cooperation mechanism of medical preventive integration, improve the awareness of medical preventive integration of medical personnel, improve the information level, and to build a new service model integrating disease prevention, medical treatment and health management.
