Objective: To examine the prevalence of e-cigarette use and associated factors among primary and secondary school students in Pudong New Area, Shanghai, and to explore the pathways linking harm perception of e-cigarettes, interpersonal social influence, and attitudes toward e-cigarette use with experimentation behavior, in order to provide scientific basis for further optimizing the prevention and control strategies of e-cigarette among adolescents. Methods: From September to October 2025, a multi stage cluster random sampling method was used to select 5 144 primary and secondary school students aged 8-19 years from 47 primary and secondary schools in Pudong New Area, Shanghai, to conduct an anonymous questionnaire survey. The questionnaire collected information on e-cigarette use, harm perception of e-cigarette, interpersonal social influence, and attitudes toward e-cigarette use. The Chi-square test was applied to analyze the differences in cigarette and e-cigarette use behavior among primary and secondary school students with different demographic characteristics. Structural equation modeling (SEM) was constructed using Mplus 8.3 software, and the bootstrap method was utilized to test the mediating effects. Results: The reported rates of cigarette experimentation, e-cigarette experimentation, and current e-cigarette use among primary and secondary school students were 1.85%, 2.10%, and 0.70%, respectively. Higher reporting rates of e-cigarette experimentation were observed among boys (2.82%), secondary school students aged 16-19 (3.39%), senior high school students (3.05%), and those with weekly pocket money >100 yuan ( 6.11% ) ( χ 2=11.67, 8.61, 8.00, 54.18, all P <0.05). Structural pathway analysis results demonstrated that e-cigarette harm perception positively predicted interpersonal social influence ( β =0.61) and e-cigarette use attitude ( β = 0.53 ), and interpersonal social influence ( β =0.65) and e-cigarette use attitude ( β =0.25) further promoted e-cigarette experimentation behavior among primary and secondary school students (all P <0.01), with interpersonal social influence playing a major mediating role (indirect effect=0.40). Conclusions E-cigarette experimentation behavior among primary and secondary school students in Pudong New Area is jointly influenced by multiple psychosocial factors. Intervention strategies should strengthen interpersonal social factors such as family and peers on the basis of health education, thereby constructing a comprehensive prevention and control strategy for e-cigarette use among primary and secondary school students.

Background As a pillar industry in China, the manufacturing sector has a high incidence of non-fatal occupational injuries. The factors influencing non-fatal occupational injuries in this industry are closely related at various levels, including individual, equipment, environment, and management, making the analysis of these influencing factors complex. Objective To identify influencing factors of non-fatal occupational injuries among manufacturing workers, providing a basis for targeted interventions and surveillance. Methods A total of 2243 frontline workers from cable and shipbuilding enterprises were selected as study subjects to investigate the incidence of non-fatal occupational injuries and collect information at four levels: individual, equipment, management, and environment in past 12 months. Data balancing was performed using resampling, and LASSO regression was used to select factors of non-fatal occupational injuries. The influence degree and type of variables were judged based on the magnitude of the estimated coefficients of each variable, where variables with estimated coefficients > 0 are risk factors, and those <0 are protective factors. The area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC)curve (AUC) was used to test the performance of the model, with an AUC value > 0.7 indicating good model performance. Results Among the 2243 frontline workers, males accounted for 77.7% (1742 out of 2243), with the main age range being 40-49 years old, representing 29.5% (661 out of 2243), 82.7% of the workers (1854 out of 2243) were married, and 55.6% (1248 out of 2243) had a junior middle school education level. The average monthly income for 51.0% (1144 out of 2243) of the workers was between 5000 and 6999 Chinese Yuan. The incidence of non-fatal occupational injuries among the manufacturing workers was 8.4% (189/2243) in the past 12 months. Among the 22 factors associated with the occurrence of non-fatal occupational injuries (P<0.05), 10 were individual-level factors, including gender, smoking, alcohol consumption, colleague relationships, average exercise duration, job burnout, work fatigue, musculoskeletal disorders, cardiovascular diseases, and neurological and sensory organ diseases; 3 were equipment-level factors, including equipment operability, hazardous workpieces, and safety hazards; 5 were environmental-level factors, including low temperatures, special operations, noise, workspace size, and dirty and disorderly environment; and 4 were management-level factors, including daily working hours, weekly working days, overtime, and pre-job technical training. The AUC value of the LASSO regression model was 0.704 and the final model retained a total of 10 variables. Among them, there were 7 risk factors for non-fatal occupational injuries (coefficient > 0), including safety hazards, musculoskeletal disorders, dangerous workpieces, job burnout, dirty and disorderly environment, smoking, and male gender; and 3 protective factors (coefficient < 0), including pre-job technical training, good colleague relationship, and long working days per week. Conclusion Manufacturing enterprises need to focus on the incidence of non-fatal occupational injuries and conduct targeted interventions for non-fatal occupational injuries by controlling potential safety hazards, providing pre-job technical training, reducing dangerous workpieces, rectifying working environment, and reasonably arranging working hours.

The clinical data of 2 pediatric patients with atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS) who were admitted to the Department of Nephrology at the Children′s Hospital of Nanjing Medical University on July 2018 to June 2023 were retrospectively analyzed.Both patients had combined CFH and CD46 gene mutations.One patient, a 2-year-old boy, presented jaundice and darkened urine following mumps.The other patient, a 7-month-old girl and the younger sister of the boy, developed fever, cough, vomiting, and thrombocytopenia without any apparent cause.Laboratory tests revealed hemolytic anemia, thrombocytopenia, and acute kidney injury in both patients.The genetic test results revealed mutations in both CFH (c.3572C>T, p.Ser1191Leu) and CD46 genes (c.293C>T, p.Thr98Ile) in both patients.The patients′ mother is a heterozygous carrier of the CFH gene mutation, while their father is a heterozygous carrier of the CD46 gene mutation.Both parents exhibit normal phenotypes and are currently receiving regular infusions of Eculizumab.The pediatric aHUS caused by combined CFH and CD46 gene mutations is reported in this study for the first time in China.The clinical features of these patients are summarized and analyzed.

Objectives:The ORION-18 study has demonstrated that inclisiran can significantly reduce low-density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C)and has good safety in Asian atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease(ASCVD)patients or ASCVD high-risk population.This subgroup analysis aims to further evaluate the efficacy and safety of inclisiran in Chinese mainland population.Methods:ORION-18 study is a multi-center,randomized,double-blind,placebo-controlled,phase Ⅲ clinical trial among Asian subjects,Chinese mainland subgroup included 232 ASCVD patients or ASCVD high-risk subjects who had already been treated with diet control and maximum tolerated doses of statins treatment(with or without other lipid-lowering treatments)but still had elevated LDL-C levels.Subjects were randomized in a 1:1 ratio to the inclisiran group and the placebo group(n=116 each),and received 300 mg of inclisiran or placebo respectively on day 0,90 and 270.The primary endpoint was the percentage change in LDL-C from baseline to day 330.The secondary endpoints included the time-adjusted percentage change and absolute change in LDL-C from baseline after day 90 and up to day 360,the absolute change in LDL-C from baseline to day 330,and the percentage changes from baseline to day 330 in proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9(PCSK9),total cholesterol,apolipoprotein B(ApoB),non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol(non-HDL-C).Other secondary endpoints included the proportion of participants reaching LDL-C levels of<1.8 mmol/L at day 330,the proportion of participants with≥50%LDL-C reduction from baseline to day 330 and the proportion of participants who attained global lipid targets(the LDL-C target was<1.4 mmol/L for ASCVD patients and<1.8 mmol/L for ASCVD high-risk subjects)at day 330.Safety endpoints included adverse events during treatment,aboratory test abnormalities during treatment,serious adverse events,and assessed their severity and relation to treatment.Results:The inclisiran group showed a placebo-corrected percentage change in LDL-C from baseline to day 330 of-61.16%,and an absolute change of-1.73 mmol/L(both P<0.0001).Compared to the placebo group,the inclisiran group's time-adjusted percentage change in LDL-C from baseline between day 90 and day 360 was-58.51%,and an absolute change of was-1.64 mmol/L(both P<0.0001).At day 330,reductions from baseline were observed in the inclisiran group for PCSK9,total cholesterol,ApoB,non-HDL-C,with placebo-corrected percentage changes of-77.44%,-35.65%,-43.43%,-50.90%(all P<0.0001),respectively.At day 330,79.6%(74/93)of patients in the inclisiran group and 7.8%(6/77)in the placebo group achieved LDL-C levels<1.8 mmol/L,69.9%(65/93)of patients in the inclisiran group and 0%(0/77)in the placebo group achieved≥50%LDL-C reduction from baseline,66.7%(62/93)of patients in the inclisiran group and 2.6%(2/77)in the placebo group achieved their global LDL-C targets.The safety profile of inclisiran treatment over 12 months was comparable to that of the placebo,with no occurrence of treatment-related serious adverse events.Conclusions:In ASCVD patients or ASCVD high-risk subjects in Chinese mainland who have received diet control and maximum tolerable dose statins treatment(with or without other lipid-lowering treatments)and still have elevated LDL-C,inclisiran has a definite efficacy and good safety in reducing LDL-C.The efficacy and safety results of inclisiran assessed in Chinese mainland population are consistent with those of the general Asia population.

Objective To investigate the status and influencing factors of overweight and obesity among primary and secondary school students in Pudong New Area of Shanghai, and to provide reference for formulating obesity-related intervention strategies for school-age children. Methods Stratified cluster random sampling method was used to conduct a questionnaire survey among primary and secondary school students in Pudong New Area. The overweight and obesity rate was calculated according to the Chinese health industry standard, and the risk factors of overweight and obesity in children and adolescents of different school age groups were analyzed by logistic regression. Results The overweight and obesity rate (25.3%) of primary and secondary school students in Pudong New Area exceeded the national average level. In primary school group, male, sleep time ≥ 8h per day, water intake ≥ 1200 mL per day, and the presence of mobile food stalls around the school were the risk factors for overweight and obesity. Daily extracurricular exercise time of 30 minutes to 2 hours was a protective factor. In junior high school group, male and electronic product use time of ≥ 2h per day were the risk factors for overweight and obesity. The daily extracurricular exercise time of 1 to 2 hours was a protective factor. In high school group, drinking water ≥1200mL per day was a risk factor for overweight and obesity. Eating breakfast every day for the past week was a protective factor. Conclusion Group intervention targeting overweight and obese school-age children, while changing corresponding unhealthy habits according to different school age groups, is crucial for weight loss in school-age children.

BACKGROUND: The available evidence regarding the benefits of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) on patients receiving dialysis with coronary artery disease (CAD) is limited and inconsistent. This study aimed to evaluate the association between PCI and clinical outcomes as compared with medical therapy alone in patients undergoing dialysis with CAD in China. METHODS: This multicenter, retrospective study was conducted in 30 tertiary medical centers across 12 provinces in China from January 2015 to June 2021 to include patients on dialysis with CAD. The primary outcome was major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE), defined as a composite of cardiovascular death, non-fatal myocardial infarction, and non-fatal stroke. Secondary outcomes included all-cause death, the individual components of MACE, and Bleeding Academic Research Consortium criteria types 2, 3, or 5 bleeding. Multivariable Cox proportional hazard models were used to assess the association between PCI and outcomes. Inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW) and propensity score matching (PSM) were performed to account for potential between-group differences. RESULTS: Of the 1146 patients on dialysis with significant CAD, 821 (71.6%) underwent PCI. After a median follow-up of 23.0 months, PCI was associated with a 43.0% significantly lower risk for MACE (33.9% [ n  = 278] vs . 43.7% [ n  = 142]; adjusted hazards ratio 0.57, 95% confidence interval 0.45-0.71), along with a slightly increased risk for bleeding outcomes that did not reach statistical significance (11.1% vs . 8.3%; adjusted hazards ratio 1.31, 95% confidence interval, 0.82-2.11). Furthermore, PCI was associated with a significant reduction in all-cause and cardiovascular mortalities. Subgroup analysis did not modify the association of PCI with patient outcomes. These primary findings were consistent across IPTW, PSM, and competing risk analyses. CONCLUSION This study indicated that PCI in patients on dialysis with CAD was significantly associated with lower MACE and mortality when comparing with those with medical therapy alone, albeit with a slightly increased risk for bleeding events that did not reach statistical significance.

Objective:To report the nationwide surveillance results of pathogenic profiles and antimicrobial resistance patterns of Gram-positive bloodstream infections in China in 2023.Methods:The clinical isolates of Gram-posttive bacteria from blood cultures were collected in member hospitals of National Bloodstream Infection Bacterial Resistant Investigation Collaborative System（BRICS）during January to December 2023. Antimicrobial susceptibility testing was performed using the dilution method recommended by the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute（CLSI）. Statistical analyses were conducted using WHONET 5.6 and SPSS 25.0 software.Results:A total of 4 385 Gram-positive bacterial isolates were obtained from 60 participating center. The top five pathogens were Staphylococcus aureus（ n=1 544，35.2%），coagulase-negative Staphylococci（ n=1 441，32.9%）， Enterococcus faecium（ n=574，13.1%）， Enterococcus faecalis（ n=385，8.8%），and α-hemolytic Streptococci（ n=187，4.3%）. The prevalence of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus（MRSA）and methicillin-resistant coagulase-negative Staphylococci（MRCNS）was 26.2%（405/1 544）and 69.8%（1 006/1 441），respectively. Notably，all Staphylococci remained susceptible to glycopeptide or daptomycin. Staphylococcus aureus demonstrated excellent susceptibility（>97.0%）to cephalobiol，rifampicin，trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole，linezolid，minocycline，tigecycline，and eravacycline. No Enterococcus exhibiting resistance to linezolid were detected. Glycopeptide resistance was uncommon but more frequent in Enterococcus faecium（resistance to vancomycin and teicoplanin：both 1.7%）compared to Enterococcus faecalis（both 0.3%）. The detection rates of MRSA and MRCNS exhibited significant regional variations across the country（ χ2=17.674 and 148.650，respectively，both P<0.001）. No vancomycin-resistant Enterococci were detected in central China. Institutional comparison demonstrated higher prevalence of MRSA（ χ2=14.111， P<0.001）and MRCNS（ χ2=4.828， P=0.028）in provincial hospitals than that in municipal hospitals. Socioeconomic analysis identified elevated detection rates of both MRSA（ χ2=18.986， P<0.001）and MRCNS（ χ2=4.477， P=0.034）in less developed regions（per capita GDP

Objective:To report the results of bacterial resistant investigation collaborative system（BRICS）on the distribution and antimicrobial resistance profile of clinical Gram-negative bacteria isolates from bloodstream infections in China in 2023，and provide reference for clinical tretment of bloodstream infections and prevention and control of bacterial resistance.Methods:The clinical isolates of Gram-negative bacteria from blood cultures in member hospitals of BRICS were collected during January 2023 to December 2023. Antibiotic susceptibility tests were conducted by agar dilution or broth dilution methods recommended by Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute（CLSI）. WHONET 5.6 and SPSS 25.0 were used to analyze the data.Results:During the study period，11 492 strains of Gram-negative bacteria were collected from 60 hospitals，of which 10 098（87.9%）were Enterobacterales and 1 394（12.1%）were non-fermentative bacteria. The top 5 bacterial species were Escherichia coli（50.0%）， Klebsiella pneumoniae（26.1%）， Pseudomonas aeruginosa（5.1%）， Acinetobacter baumannii complex（5.0%）and Enterobacter cloacae complex（4.1%）. The ESBL-producing rates in Escherichia coli， Klebsiella pneumoniae and Proteus mirablilis were 46.8%（2 685/5 741），18.3%（549/2 999）and 44.0%（77/175），respectively. The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Escherichia coli（CREC）and carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae（CRKP）were 1.3%（76/5 741）and 15.0%（450/2 999）；32.9%（25/76）and 78.0%（351/450）of CREC and CRKP were sensitive to ceftazidime/avibactam combination，respectively. 94.7%（72/76）and 90.2%（406/450）of CREC and CRKP were sensitive to aztreonam/avibactam combination. Furthermore，57.9%（44/76）and 79.1%（356/450）were sensitive to imipenem/relebactam combination. The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii（CRAB）complex was 64.6%（370/573），while more than 80.0% of CRAB complex was sensitive to tigecycline，eravacycline and polymyxin B. The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa（CRPA）was 17.0%（99/581）. There were differences in the composition ratio of Gram-negative bacteria in bloodstream infections and the prevalence of important Gram-negative bacteria resistance among different regions in China，with statistically significant differences in the prevalence of CREC，CRKP，CRPA and CRAB complex（ χ2=10.6，28.6，10.8 and 19.3， P<0.05）. The prevalence of ESBL-producing Escherichia coli， CREC，CRAB complex and CRKP were higher in provincial hospitals than those in municipal hospitals（ χ2=12.5，9.8，12.7 and 57.8，all P<0.01）. Conclusions:Gram-negative bacteria are the main pathogens causing bloodstream infections in China，and Escherichia coli is ranked in the top，while the trend of Klebsiella pneumoniae increases continuously with time. CRKP infection shows a slow upward trend，CREC infecton maintains a low prevalence level，and CRAB complex infection continues to exhibit a high prevalence rate. The composition and resistance patterns of pathogens causing bloodstream infections vary to some extent across different regions and levels of hospitals in China.

Objectives:The ORION-18 study has demonstrated that inclisiran can significantly reduce low-density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C)and has good safety in Asian atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease(ASCVD)patients or ASCVD high-risk population.This subgroup analysis aims to further evaluate the efficacy and safety of inclisiran in Chinese mainland population.Methods:ORION-18 study is a multi-center,randomized,double-blind,placebo-controlled,phase Ⅲ clinical trial among Asian subjects,Chinese mainland subgroup included 232 ASCVD patients or ASCVD high-risk subjects who had already been treated with diet control and maximum tolerated doses of statins treatment(with or without other lipid-lowering treatments)but still had elevated LDL-C levels.Subjects were randomized in a 1:1 ratio to the inclisiran group and the placebo group(n=116 each),and received 300 mg of inclisiran or placebo respectively on day 0,90 and 270.The primary endpoint was the percentage change in LDL-C from baseline to day 330.The secondary endpoints included the time-adjusted percentage change and absolute change in LDL-C from baseline after day 90 and up to day 360,the absolute change in LDL-C from baseline to day 330,and the percentage changes from baseline to day 330 in proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9(PCSK9),total cholesterol,apolipoprotein B(ApoB),non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol(non-HDL-C).Other secondary endpoints included the proportion of participants reaching LDL-C levels of<1.8 mmol/L at day 330,the proportion of participants with≥50%LDL-C reduction from baseline to day 330 and the proportion of participants who attained global lipid targets(the LDL-C target was<1.4 mmol/L for ASCVD patients and<1.8 mmol/L for ASCVD high-risk subjects)at day 330.Safety endpoints included adverse events during treatment,aboratory test abnormalities during treatment,serious adverse events,and assessed their severity and relation to treatment.Results:The inclisiran group showed a placebo-corrected percentage change in LDL-C from baseline to day 330 of-61.16%,and an absolute change of-1.73 mmol/L(both P<0.0001).Compared to the placebo group,the inclisiran group's time-adjusted percentage change in LDL-C from baseline between day 90 and day 360 was-58.51%,and an absolute change of was-1.64 mmol/L(both P<0.0001).At day 330,reductions from baseline were observed in the inclisiran group for PCSK9,total cholesterol,ApoB,non-HDL-C,with placebo-corrected percentage changes of-77.44%,-35.65%,-43.43%,-50.90%(all P<0.0001),respectively.At day 330,79.6%(74/93)of patients in the inclisiran group and 7.8%(6/77)in the placebo group achieved LDL-C levels<1.8 mmol/L,69.9%(65/93)of patients in the inclisiran group and 0%(0/77)in the placebo group achieved≥50%LDL-C reduction from baseline,66.7%(62/93)of patients in the inclisiran group and 2.6%(2/77)in the placebo group achieved their global LDL-C targets.The safety profile of inclisiran treatment over 12 months was comparable to that of the placebo,with no occurrence of treatment-related serious adverse events.Conclusions:In ASCVD patients or ASCVD high-risk subjects in Chinese mainland who have received diet control and maximum tolerable dose statins treatment(with or without other lipid-lowering treatments)and still have elevated LDL-C,inclisiran has a definite efficacy and good safety in reducing LDL-C.The efficacy and safety results of inclisiran assessed in Chinese mainland population are consistent with those of the general Asia population.
