ObjectiveTo evaluate the public health governance capacity in Jiangsu Province and provide an optimized pathway for the construction of a “strong, rich, beautiful, and high-quality” new Jiangsu. MethodsA total of 806 policy documents, 658 public information reports, and 148 research literatures related to public health governance capacity in Jiangsu Province from January 1995 to December 2023 were collected. The status of current public health goverance was assessed based on the evaluation criteria suitable for public health systems, and the strengths and the weaknesses of the system were identified. ResultsThe public health governance capability of Jiangsu Province was scored at 738.3 points, ranking 3rd nationally. Maternal health care and emergency response capacities achieved leading positions nationwide, both ranking 2nd. Jiangsu had exhibited a standardized guidance in the strategic level, a well-established management mechanism, an extensive coverage in information collection, and a scientifically established health targets setting. However, bottlenecks remained, including an unclear division of responsibilities across organizational departments, an insufficient public-health workforce, the absence of a stable growth mechanism for government funding investment, and difficulties in promptly identifying public needs. ConclusionJiangsu’s public-health system demonstrates leading nationally, yet several components remain underdeveloped. Future efforts should consolidate advantages while addressing weaknesses, further diversify content and forms, establish a stable funding increase mechanism, and clarify departmental functions, thereby providing solid health support for realizing the developmental goals of a “strong, rich, beautiful and high-quality” new Jiangsu.

ObjectiveTo systematically assess the public health governance capacity in Zhejiang Province, to conduct an in-depth analysis of its strengths and weaknesses, so as to provide scientific basis and strategic recommendations for further enhancement. MethodsA systematic collection of policy documents, public information reports, and research literature related to public health governance capacity in Zhejiang Province from 2002 to 2023 was conducted (encompassing a total of 1 263 policy documents, 138 pieces of information reports and 631 research articles). Based on the evaluation criteria suitable for public health systems previously developed by the research team, the basic status and magnitude of change in public health governance capacity in Zhejiang Province was evaluated. Additionally, normative gap analyses were employed to identify the strengths and weaknesses. ResultsZhejiang Province ranked 4th nationwide in terms of public health governance capacity with a score of 733.4 points (1 000.0-point maximum). The province has effectively implemented the principle of health first (scoring 698.5 points in the assessment of health-first strategy implementation) and attached sufficient importance to health-related goals (scoring 658.2 points in the scientific rationality of goal setting). However, the implementation of inter-departmental coordination and incentive mechanisms only scored 178.7 points, the feasibility of management and monitoring mechanisms scored even lower at only 144.0 points, and the coverage of incentive mechanisms scored 286.0 points. ConclusionZhejiang Province has effectively implemented its health first strategy and attached great importance to health targets, but still needs to strengthen cross-departmental coordination mechanisms and health-oriented incentives.

Objective To investigate the effects of low, mid, and high flux smoothness modes on plan quality, treatment efficiency, equipment loss, and clinical economic benefits in fixed-field intensity-modulated radiotherapy for cervical cancer, and establish a decision-making model for parameter optimization and economic benefits. Methods Fifteen patients with cervical cancer undergoing radiotherapy were selected. Using the Monaco system and adjusting only the flux smoothness parameter, low, mid, and high plans were designed for each patient. Dosimetric differences were compared for the target volume (D₂, D₉₈, D_mean, homogeneity index, conformity index) and organs at risk (small intestine, rectum, colon, bladder, femoral head). The number of segments, monitor units, and their correlations with treatment efficiency and equipment loss were analyzed, as well as the potential impact on clinical costs. Results There were statistically significant differences in the three groups' planned target areas D₂, D₉₈, D_mean, CI, HI, and the dose parameters of organs at risk (P<0.001), but the absolute differences were all lower than the clinical tolerance limits in the ICRU 83 report (±3% – ±5%), with an effect size d<0.5 (except for the small intestine with d = 0.51). There was no clinical significance. Compared with the mid mode, the high mode had a 13.3% reduction in the number of subfields (effect size d = 0.85), a 11.6% reduction in machine jumps (d = 1.0), and a 13.0% reduction in treatment time. Based on the mid mode, the relative loss rate of the accelerating tube in the high mode was 11.6%, the theoretical risk change rate of equipment failure was 12.7%, and the accelerating tube lifespan was extended by approximately 1.2 years. Comprehensive economic benefits: Calculated based on 1,200 treatments per year, the annual cost savings are approximately 920,000 yuan. Conclusion Adoption of the high flux smoothness mode in fixed-field intensity-modulated radiotherapy for cervical cancer using the Monaco system can significantly enhance treatment efficiency and reduce operating costs while ensuring dosimetric quality. It is recommended for routine clinical use.

ObjectiveTo systematically characterize the in vitro chemical constituents of Entada phaseoloides and its absorbed prototype compounds and metabolites in a neuropathic pain （NP） model， thereby elucidating the potential pharmacological material basis underlying its analgesic activity. MethodsUltra-high-performance liquid chromatography coupled with quadrupole-Orbitrap high-resolution mass spectrometry （UHPLC-Q-Orbitrap HRMS） was used to analyze the constituents of the 80% methanol extract of E. phaseoloides. Thirty-six mice were divided into a blank group， low-， medium-， and high-dose E. phaseoloides extract groups （25， 50， and 100 mg·kg^-1， respectively）， an aspirin group （400 mg·kg^-1）， and a morphine group （10 mg·kg^-1）， with six mice in each group. The tail-flick threshold was measured. Twenty-four mice were randomly divided into a blank group and low-， medium-， and high-dose E. phaseoloides extract groups （25， 50， and 100 mg·kg^-1， respectively）， with six mice in each group， and motor coordination was evaluated. A spinal nerve ligation （SNL） model was established in mice. Twenty-four mice were randomly divided into a sham-operated （Sham） group， an SNL group， an SNL + E. phaseoloides extract group （750 mg·kg^-1）， and an SNL + pregabalin group （20 mg·kg^-1）， with 6 mice in each group. Mechanical allodynia and thermal hyperalgesia were evaluated. Behavioral assessments were combined to determine the optimal onset time of the analgesic effect， and plasma samples were collected at this time point. Absorbed components and metabolites were systematically identified based on accurate mass， MS/MS fragmentation patterns， retention time， and comparisons with literature data and reference standards. Meanwhile， network pharmacology， target similarity analysis， and molecular docking validation were integrated to evaluate the potential effects of absorbed components on disease intervention. ResultsCompared with the blank group， the high-dose E. phaseoloides extract group and morphine group showed significantly increased pain response thresholds （P<0.01）， without affecting motor coordination in normal mice. Compared with the Sham group， the SNL group exhibited significantly decreased thresholds for mechanical allodynia and thermal hyperalgesia （P<0.01）. Compared with the SNL group， the SNL + E. phaseoloides extract group and SNL + pregabalin group showed significantly increased thresholds for mechanical allodynia and thermal hyperalgesia （P<0.01）. The analgesic effect of E. phaseoloides was most significant at 2 h after administration. A total of 70 constituents were identified in vitro， and 22 prototype compounds and 29 metabolites were detected in plasma. The targets of the absorbed components were mainly enriched in biological processes associated with pain signal perception and transmission and showed a high degree of overlap with disease genes related to neuropathic pain. In addition， multiple components exhibited strong binding energies with core pain-related targets. Based on integrated analysis of in vitro content， plasma exposure levels， and target associations， ketanthamide A-β-D-pyranoside and ketengzide were identified as the most representative pharmacologically active substances responsible for the analgesic effect. ConclusionThis study systematically elucidates the material basis of E. phaseoloides intervention in neuropathic pain from three aspects， including chemical constituent characteristics， in vivo behavioral characteristics， and potential targets， providing important theoretical foundations and experimental support for further studies on its pharmacological mechanism and analgesic drug development.

Hyperlipidemia is a common metabolic disorder driven by dysregulated lipid metabolism， whose pathological progression involves multifaceted interactions across various signaling pathways， including disrupted cholesterol homeostasis， insulin resistance， chronic inflammation， and oxidative stress. Although existing clinical medications such as statins can effectively reduce low-density lipoprotein cholesterol through single-target inhibition， significant limitations remain in comprehensively improving reverse cholesterol transport， metabolic inflammation， and coordinated regulation of glucose and lipid metabolism. Curcumin， the primary polyphenolic active compound derived from the traditional medicinal herb turmeric， exhibits multi-dimensional pharmacological effects including modulation of lipid metabolism， improvement of insulin sensitivity， suppression of inflammatory responses， and enhancement of antioxidant defense. This review systematically integrates the multi-target regulatory network of curcumin， elucidating its key mechanisms： Balancing the low density lipoprotein receptor/proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 （LDLR/PCSK9） signaling pathway to promote reverse cholesterol transport， activating peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor α/γ （PPARα/γ） signaling pathways to coordinate glucolipid metabolic homeostasis， remodeling the gut microbiota-bile acid axis， inhibiting nuclear factor kappa-B （NF-κB）-mediated inflammatory responses， and activating the nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2/antioxidant response element （Nrf2/ARE） antioxidant signaling pathway. Furthermore， supported by clinical research data， the review validates curcumin's therapeutic potential in reducing total cholesterol （TC） and triglyceride （TG） levels， increasing high-density lipoprotein cholesterol （HDL-C）， as well as improving vascular endothelial function and insulin sensitivity. The study highlights the multi-target regulatory properties of curcumin and discusses future clinical applications based on nano-delivery systems and personalized treatment strategies， providing a theoretical basis and novel insights for the prevention and treatment of hyperlipidemia and related metabolic disorders.

Objective Jejunal interposition is an important option for restoring gastrointestinal continuity in patients with complex esophageal cancer in whom the stomach is unavailable for reconstruction due to previous gastrectomy, tumor involvement, failed gastric conduit, or other constraints. Although the jejunum offers a caliber similar to the esophagus, a rich blood supply, and preserved peristaltic function, anatomical variations in mesenteric length and vascular arcades render long-segment and high-level reconstruction susceptible to excessive tension, mesenteric torsion, venous congestion, and inadequate distal perfusion. This consensus aims to provide standardized recommendations for the application of jejunal interposition in this specific patient population. Methods This consensus was developed in accordance with the WHO Handbook for Guideline Development and Chinese national guideline development standards, with reference to the Appraisal of Guidelines for Research & Evaluation Ⅱ(AGREE Ⅱ), Reporting Items for Practice Guidelines in Healthcare (RIGHT), and Scientific, Transparent and Applicable Rankings (STAR) checklists. The project was registered on the international practice guidelines registry platform (PREPARE-2026CN1384). The working group systematically searched Chinese and English evidence addressing 12 clinical questions. Evidence was graded using the Oxford Centre for Evidence-Based Medicine (OCEBM) 2009 system, with structured appraisal of risk of bias, inconsistency, indirectness, and imprecision. Recommendations were formulated through two rounds of Delphi surveys and a face-to-face consensus meeting, with an agreement threshold of ≥75%. Results The consensus generated 12 recommendations covering indications, selection between jejunum and colon, preoperative assessment, surgical approach and reconstruction route, pedicled jejunal interposition (PJI), supercharged pedicled jejunal interposition (SPJ), indocyanine green (ICG) perfusion assessment, perioperative nutrition, management of anastomotic leakage, long-term follow-up, and special treatment scenarios. Given that the available direct evidence is predominantly derived from single-center retrospective cohorts and case series, recommendations extrapolated from general esophagectomy or other gastrointestinal surgical evidence are deliberately phrased with caution. Conclusion Jejunal interposition is a safe and effective approach for digestive tract reconstruction in patients with complex esophageal cancer in whom the stomach is unavailable. This consensus emphasizes that clinical decision-making should be individualized based on the patient's prior treatment history, reconstruction height, vascular anatomy, technical availability, and institutional experience in the Chinese context.

Gongfa is an essential approach to prevent and treat diseases in traditional Chinese medicine(TCM),often used to prevent a disease before it arises.Guided by TCM and modern scientific theories,the Tuina(Chinese therapeutic massage)Gongfa prescription theory implements the principle,method,prescription,and form in clinical pattern-identified treatment to prescribe the corresponding Tuina Gongfa prescription,i.e.,to prescribe a basic Tuina Gongfa prescription,specifically for a systemic disease,and modify Gongfa forms based on the basic prescription according to different patterns.The Gongfa prescription for pulmonary diseases designs corresponding Gongfa forms from six perspectives:lifting Yang,securing the exterior,opening the orifices,soothing the chest,harmonizing the stomach,and regulating Qi to prevent and treat diseases.The application of the pulmonary Gongfa prescription indicates the potential to apply the Tuina Gongfa prescription theory for the clinical prevention,treatment,and rehabilitation of disorders of other systems,thereby fully realizing the unique role of TCM Gongfa.

Objective:To explore the maintenance of sinus rhythm and the changes in functional tricuspid regurgitation(FTR) in patients with atrial fibrillation(AF) combined with FTR following the Mei Mini Maze Procedure, and to analyze the correlation between these two factors.Methods:We retrospectively included 180 patients with AF and FTR who underwent left-sided thoracoscopic AF ablation(the Mei Mini Maze Procedure) at Xinhua Hospital in Shanghai from January 2019 to December 2021. After propensity score matching to eliminate confounding factors, the patients were divided into two groups based on the severity of FTR before surgery: the non-significant FTR group(+ -+ +, 68 cases) and the significant FTR group(≥+ + +, 68 cases). Outpatient follow-up with 24-72 hour dynamic electrocardiogram and transthoracic echocardiography(TTE) was conducted at 3, 6, 12, 24, and 36 months post-discharge. The maintenance of sinus rhythm and changes in FTR were compared between the two groups.Results:All patients successfully completed the Mei Mini Maze Procedure. Compared to preoperative values, the severity of FTR improved in both groups. Non-significant FTR group: 59% of patients(40 cases) had no regurgitation, 27%(18 cases) had mild FTR, 11%(8 cases) had moderate FTR, and 3%(2 cases) had severe FTR; significant FTR group: 19%(n=13) had no regurgitation, 25%(17 cases) had mild FTR, 25%(17 cases) had moderate FTR, and 31%(21 cases) had severe FTR. The Kaplan-Meier(KM) curve revealed that the sinus rhythm maintenance rate at 3 years post-surgery was significantly higher in the non-significant FTR group(72.06%) than in the significant FTR group (57.35%), with a statistically significant difference( P=0.011). Multivariate analysis showed that postoperative FTR ≥ moderate( HR=11.469), preoperative significant FTR( HR=1.206), age over 65 years( HR=3.734), non-paroxysmal AF( HR=2.346), and longer AF duration( HR=1.151) were risk factors for AF recurrence in this cohort. Conclusion:The recovery of sinus rhythm in AF patients is closely related to the severity of FTR. Patients with preoperative significant FTR had a lower rate of sinus rhythm maintenance after surgery. Both preoperative and postoperative significant FTR are risk factors for AF recurrence in AF patients with FTR. Therefore, for patients with significant FTR, simultaneous treatment of FTR during the surgery, including a standard Cox-Maze Ⅳ procedure, may be more beneficial for maintaining postoperative sinus rhythm.

Objective:To investigate the relationship between the changes in extracellular vesicles (EVs) size distribution before and after cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) cardiac surgery and postoperative coagulation function.Methods:A total of 103 patients undergoing cardiac surgery with CPB were enrolled. Venous blood samples were collected at preoperation, postoperative 12 h and 3 days. Additionally, 50 age- and gender-matched healthy volunteers served as a control group. EVs were isolated using gradient centrifugation, and their size distribution was assessed by dynamic light scattering (DLS). The relationship between EV size characteristics, including peak diameter, peak height, and interquartile range( IQR), and postoperative coagulation function was analyzed. Results:Compared to patients with normal postoperative coagulation function, those with postoperative coagulation dysfunction had lower size at peak and IQR, and significantly higher peak intensity. Logistic regression analysis indicated that elevated peak intensity and lower size at peak and IQR were risk factors for coagulation dysfunction. The area under the curve ( AUC) for diagnosing coagulation dysfunction with 12 h postoperative EVs peak intensity was 0.76, with a positive predictive value of 85% at the optimal cutoff of 8.2; the AUC for IQR was 0.84, with a sensitivity of 83%, specificity of 82%, and negative predictive value of 86% at the optimal cutoff of 125.05 nm. Conclusion:The size distribution of circulating EVs show a correlation with coagulation function after cardiac surgery with CPB and may serve as a novel biomarker to predict postoperative coagulation dysfunction.
