Objective To understand the utilization of immunization program vaccines in Liaoning Province and evaluate the vaccine management mode, and to provide a scientific basis for optimizing immunization strategies. Methods The vaccine collection data and vaccine administration data of vaccination units (including obstetric clinics) in the province from 2021 to 2024 were collected, and the vaccine utilization rate of immunization program was calculated. SPSS 13.0 software was used for data analysis, and χ² test was used for comparison. A two-sided P value of <0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results (1) From 2021 to 2024, vaccination units and obstetric clinics received a total of 15 993 884 doses of immunization program vaccines, with a total utilization rate of 79.34%. The highest utilization rate was the single-dose vaccine MPSV-AC (94.02%), followed by JE-L (91.92%). The lowest rate of use was the 5-dose strength vaccine MPSV-A (48.12%), followed by the 4-dose strength vaccine DT (63.13%). (2) Comparing MPSV-A and DT in different years, the utilization rate of MPSV-A and DT was the highest in 2021, 59.53% and 67.71%, respectively. From 2021 to 2024, the utilization rate of MPSV-A had a decreasing trend year by year, with the lowest being 38.65% (2024), and the loss coefficient of MPSV-A in each year was higher than that of DT. (3) Comparison of vaccine utilization rates in immunization programs around 2020, the utilization rate of single-dose vaccines increased significantly compared with before, while the utilization rate of multi-dose vaccines decreased compared with before 2020. Conclusion After 2020, the vaccine utilization rate of the immunization program in Liaoning Province has increased significantly, and the optimized vaccine management strategies has achieved remarkable results. Multi-dose vaccines remain highly susceptible to formulation-related factors and vaccination density. It is recommended to formulate precise vaccination strategies to reduce the loss of multi-dose vaccines.

ObjectiveTo investigate the mechanism by which Jianpi Xiao'ai prescription （JPXAP） inhibits colorectal cancer progression by regulating the inducible nitric oxide synthase-arginase 1 （iNOS-ARG1） metabolic axis and inducing mitochondrial reactive oxygen species （mito-ROS）-mediated mitochondrial structural and functional impairment. MethodsAn arginine metabolism disorder model of human colorectal cancer HCT116 cells was established by combined treatment with recombinant human interferon-γ （IFN-γ， 10 μg·L^-1） and N（ω）-hydroxy-L-arginine （Nor-NOHA， 200 μmol·L^-1） for 24 h， followed by intervention with 5%， 10%， or 20% JPXAP-containing serum. Cell proliferation was assessed using cell counting kit-8 （CCK-8）， 5-ethynyl-2′-deoxyuridine （EdU） staining， and colony formation assays. Cell invasion and migration were evaluated using Transwell chamber and wound healing assays. Mitochondrial membrane potential （MMP） and ROS levels were assessed by JC-1 and MitoSOX staining， respectively. Mitochondrial ultrastructure was observed by transmission electron microscopy （TEM）. The expression of iNOS， ARG1， and mitochondrial dynamics-related proteins， including mitofusin 2 （MFN2） and dynamin-related protein 1 （DRP1）， was analyzed by Western blot and immunofluorescence. The levels of L-arginine， citrulline， and urea were determined by colorimetric methods and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA）. ResultsCompared with the blank group， the model group exhibited significantly upregulated iNOS expression， downregulated ARG1 expression， a decreased ARG1/iNOS ratio， reduced L-arginine and urea levels， and increased citrulline levels （P<0.05）. Meanwhile， mito-ROS accumulation was significantly increased， the JC-1 red/green fluorescence ratio was decreased， and mitochondria showed swelling and cristae disruption， indicating that metabolic disorder induced mitochondrial injury. Compared with the model group， all JPXAP-treated groups further decreased the ARG1/iNOS ratio， enhanced nitric oxide （NO） and reactive nitrogen species accumulation， further reduced L-arginine and urea levels， and increased citrulline levels （P<0.01）. EdU-positive rate， colony formation rate， wound healing rate， and Transwell invasion number all decreased significantly with increasing serum concentration （P<0.01）. Mito-ROS levels were further elevated， and the JC-1 red/green ratio further decreased. TEM revealed aggravated mitochondrial swelling and vacuolization. MFN2 expression was downregulated and DRP1 expression was upregulated （P<0.01），in a dose-dependent manner. ConclusionJPXAP further activates NO-mediated oxidative/nitrosative stress under arginine metabolism imbalance， inducing mito-ROS accumulation， MMP collapse， and mitochondrial dynamics imbalance， thereby inhibiting colorectal cancer cell proliferation and migration. These findings reveal an antitumor mechanism of JPXAP based on coordinated targeting of the "metabolism-mitochondria" axis.

Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of gemcitabine and cisplatin (GP) regimen in combination with immune checkpoint inhibitor sintilimab as neoadjuvant therapy for muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) patients and the feasibility of the following selective bladder sparing surgery. Materials and Methods: Patients with histopathologically confirmed urothelial carcinoma without distant metastases (T2-4a, N ≤ 1, M0, American Joint Committee of Cancer 8th) and with adequate organ function will be enrolled. The therapeutic regimen was sintilimab 200 mg once on day 8, gemcitabine 1,000 mg/m2 and cisplatin 35 mg/m2 once on days 1 and 8, every 21 days for four cycles. The primary endpoint was pathologic complete response (pCR, pT0N0) rate. The secondary end points were ypT < 2 rate, R0 resection rate, event-free survival, and safety. Results: From May 4, 2020, to May 20, 2023, 55 patients were enrolled. Forty-six patients were evaluated for efficacy. Among the 42 patients who underwent surgery, 16 patients (38.0%) achieved pCR. Thirty-three patients (78.6%) achieved pT < 2. With a median follow-up of 15.7 months, the 1-year event-free survival was 91.3%. Notwithstanding the poor pathological baseline characteristic of a high T3-T4a proportion (39.1%), a promising bladder preservation (including 22 patients transurethral resection of bladder tumor, 5 patients partial cystectomy, and 4 surveillances) rate was achieved (67.4%). The most common grade ≥ 3 treatment-related adverse events was neutropenia (n=15, 27.3%), which was related to chemotherapy. There were no grade 3 immune-related adverse events. Conclusion Neoadjuvant GP plus sintilimab is a promising regimen for MIBC patients, with relatively high pT < 2 rate and triggering the emerging roles for the multi-disciplinary team decision-making for bladder sparing surgery.

Circadian rhythm is a biological endogenous process regulated by the suprachiasmatic nucleus of the hypothalamus, which transmits light signals to peripheral clocks and synchronizes the body with the external environment through balanced expression of circadian rhythm genes. Working the night shift, sleep disorders, and exposure to artificial light can lead to disturbances in circadian rhythm and genetic imbalances. A substantial body of research has demonstrated that circadian rhythm plays a significant role in the treatment of autoimmune diseases and neurodegenerative disorders, with increasing attention being directed toward their impact on oral health. Disturbances in circadian rhythm primarily affect psycho-neuro-immune mechanisms, oxidative stress responses, and oral microflora through pathways such as the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis (HPA axis), brain and muscle ARNT-like 1 (BMAL1)-brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) signaling, and BMAL1-nuclear factor kappa-B (NF-κB) interactions. These disruptions may influence the progression of oral diseases. Certain pharmacological agents (e.g., melatonin, vitamin D, nobiletin, and propofol) have been shown to regulate mood disorders, immune function, and sleep-wake cycles by upregulating BMAL1 expression, thus alleviating disturbances in circadian rhythm. In addition, non-pharmacological interventions, such as sleep management strategies, psychotherapy approaches, and light therapy, also modulate these processes through HPA axis regulation. Currently, the specific mechanisms by which circadian rhythm regulates BDNF levels, T cell subsets, and inflammatory signals—thereby influencing both pathogenesis and treatment outcomes for oral diseases—remain unclear. Future research should focus on elucidating these molecular mechanisms as well as identifying therapeutic targets related to circadian rhythm within the oral health context. Further, multidisciplinary collaboration encompassing pharmacy, sleep behavior studies, and psychology will be instrumental in advancing prevention strategies and treatments for oral diseases.

Objective: To analyze the unregistered treatment situation and its influencing factors among pulmonary tuberculosis patients in Quzhou City, Zhejiang Province from 2017 to 2023, so as to provide a basis for promoting the management of tuberculosis patients and optimizing disease prevention and control strategies. Methods: Data of pulmonary tuberculosis patients including demographic information, etiological results, and mortality status were collected through the China Disease Prevention and Control Information System Infectious Disease Reporting and Surveillance System and the Tuberculosis Management Information System. Pulmonary tuberculosis patients not matched in the Tuberculosis Management Information System were defined as unregistered treatment patients, and the unregistered treatment rate was analyzed. Factors affecting unregistered treatment among pulmonary tuberculosis patients were analyzed using a multivariable logistic regression model. Results: A total of 10 779 pulmonary tuberculosis patients were reported in Quzhou City from 2017 to 2023, including 7 700 males (71.44%) and 3 079 females (28.56%). There were 5 484 cases aged <65 years, accounting for 50.88%. Among them, 630 cases were unregistered treatment, with an unregistered treatment rate of 5.84% (95%CI: 5.42%-6.38%). Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed pulmonary tuberculosis patients aged ≥65 years (OR=1.829, 95%CI: 1.512-2.212) had a higher risk of being unregistered treatment than those aged <65 years; patients with non-local household registration (OR=5.710, 95%CI: 4.724-6.901) had a higher risk than local patients; and patients engaged in housework/unemployed (OR=2.001, 95%CI: 1.421-2.818) or other occupations (OR=2.396, 95%CI: 1.789-3.137) had a higher risk than farmers. The mortality of unregistered treatment pulmonary tuberculosis patients was higher than the registered treatment patients (26.67% vs. 5.02%),with a significantly elevated mortality risk (OR=7.147, 95%CI: 5.738-8.902). Conclusions The unregistered treatment rate among pulmonary tuberculosis patients was well controlled in Quzhou City from 2017 to 2023, but the elderly, patients with non-local household registration, and those engaged in housework/unemployed had a higher risk of unregistered treatment. It is recommended to improve medical and social security policies, strengthen health education on tuberculosis prevention, enhance treatment adherence, and reduce mortality risk.

Chlorobenzene contaminants (CBs) pose a threat to the eco-environment, and functional strains hold considerable potential for the remediation of CB-contaminated sites. To deeply explore the application potential of functional bacteria in the in-situ bioremediation of CBs, this study focused on the biodegradation characteristics and degradation kinetics of CB and 1, 2-dichlorobenzene (1, 2-DCB) in soil by the isolated strain Serratia marcescens TF-1. Additionally, an in-situ remediation trial was conducted with this strain at a chemical industrial site. Batch serum bottle experiments showed that the degradation rate of CB at the concentrations ranging from 20 to 200 mg/L by TF-1 was 0.22-0.66 mol/(g_cell·h), following the Haldane model, with the optimal concentration at 23.12 mg/L. The results from simulated soil degradation experiments indicated that the combined use of TF-1 and sodium succinate (SS) significantly enhanced the degradation of CBs, with the maximum degradation rate of CB reaching 0.104 d^-1 and a half-life of 6.66 d. For 1, 2-DCB, the maximum degradation rate constant was 0.068 7 d^-1, with a half-life of 10.087 d. The in-situ remediation results at the chemically contaminated site demonstrated that the introduction of bacterial inoculant and SS significantly improved the removal of CBs, achieving the removal rates of 84.2%-100% after 10 d. CB, 1, 4-dichlorobenzene (1, 4-DCB), and benzo[a]pyrene were completely removed. Microbial diversity analysis revealed that the in-situ remediation facilitated the colonization of TF-1 and the enrichment of indigenous nitrogen-fixing Azoarcus, which may have played a key role in the degradation process. This study provides a theoretical basis and practical experience for the in situ bioremediation of CBs-contaminated sites.

Objective:To compare the types and contents of trace elements in compound trace element preparations used in parenteral nutrition in Beijing against the doses recommended by the guidelines, so as to facilitate optimal choice of preparations for different populations in clinical practice.Methods:The available compound trace element preparations were determined according to the drug list from the Medical Insurance Recruitment and Procurement System of Beijing and the recommended doses of trace elements in the guidelines released by Chinese domestic and foreign nutrition societies were collected and compared.Results:The compound trace element preparations used in Beijing comprised 4 varieties and 6 specifications, with the daily cost ranging from 11.32 to 471 Chinese Yuan. There were 3 varieties of trace element preparations for adults, including multi-trace elements injection (Ⅱ), multi-trace elements injection (Ⅲ), and multi-trace elements injection. Among those, multi-trace elements injection (Ⅲ) met the guideline recommendations best and the price was moderate. For pediatric populations, multi-trace elements injections (Ⅰ) satisfied better the trace element requirements for preterm infants and infants from term to 3 months, while multi-trace elements injections (Ⅲ) outperformed in meeting the trace element requirements for 3-to-12-month infants and children. However, there were still some differences in the trace element contents between the two preparations and the guideline recommendations.Conclusion:The currently available varieties and specifications of trace element preparations basically meet the recommendations of evidence-based guidelines, but there is still the need to improve the instructions for and evidence on the pediatric application of certain preparations.

Aim To explore the effect of the classical famous prescription Dahuang Zhechong pill(DHZCP)on relieving liver cirrhosis by regulating the stress fiber remodeling mediated by mechanistic signaling pathway and to explore the underlying mechanism.Methods Mice were randomly divided into the control group,model group,DHZCP low-dose group,DHZCP high-dose group,and Colchicine-positive control group.The liver cirrhosis mouse model was constructed by intrap-eritoneal injection of olive oil-solubilized CCl4.HE staining and serologic markers were used to reflect liver injury.Masson staining was used to evaluate collagen deposition in liver tissue.ELISA was applied to detect vasoactive molecules and cancer indicators.Atomic force microscopy was employed to detect liver tissue stiffness.Color Doppler diagnostic instrument was used to assess portal blood flow velocity.Western blot was utilized to detect ROCK2 expression and phosphoryla-tion of YAP,Cofilin,and MLC.Results The liver tis-sues in the model group had obvious inflammatory cell infiltration and collagen deposition,accompanied by significant elevation of serum transaminases and fibrosis indexes.Similarly,vasoactive molecules and cancer in-dicators were elevated,and the mechanoregulatory pro-tein ROCK2 expression and phosphorylation of Cofilin and MLC were elevated,with YAP being strongly de-phosphorylated.Both low and high doses of DHZCP re-versed the pathological changes,serological indices,and inhibited the activation of the stress fiber(SF)re-modeling mechanistic signaling pathway.Conclusion DHZCP effectively ameliorates liver tissue lesions in mice with liver cirrhosis,and its mechanism may be re-lated to the inhibition of SF remodeling mechanistic signaling pathway.

Objective:Exploring the changes in the expression of transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 (TRPV1) in the peripheral and central nervous system in rats temporomandibular joint osteoarthritis (TMJOA) and its relationship with TMJOA pain .Methods:From February 2024 to April 2025, 48 healthy male Sprague Dawley rats were randomly divided into a control group and an experimental group, with 24 rats in each group. The modeling periods for both groups were 2, 4, and 6 weeks, with 8 rats per group at each time point. After bilateral injection of monosodium iodoacetate (MIA) into the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) cavity to establish a TMJOA model, the TMJ condyle, trigeminal ganglion (TG), trigeminal nucleus caudate (TNC), and hippocampal tissue were collected. Pain threshold detector von Frey silk was used to evaluate the head withdrawal threshold (HWT) of rats, and HE staining and micro-CT scanning were used to observe the histological changes of TMJ. Immunohistochemical staining was used to detect the expression of TRPV1 in TG and hippocampal tissues, as well as the expression of glial fibrillar acidic protein (GFAP) in TNC.Results:On the first day after modeling, the HWT of rats significantly decreased and then gradually increased. From day 7 to day 14, HWT decreased again, and after day 14, HWT gradually increased. Statistically significant differences were observed between the experimental group and the control group at each time point ( P<0.001). HE staining and micro-CT revealed that in the second week after modeling, the arrangement of condylar bone trabeculae was disordered, the trabeculae became thinner, the bone marrow cavity became larger, and then the trabeculae became thicker and the bone marrow cavity became smaller. The number of TRPV1 positive cells in TG of TMJOA rats reached its peak in the second week of modeling, and then gradually decreased in the fourth and sixth weeks ( P<0.001), with no statistically significant difference in the control group ( P=0.941). The number of GFAP positive cells in TNCs of TMJOA rats significantly increased, reaching its peak in the second week of modeling and gradually decreasing in the fourth and sixth weeks ( P<0.001). There was no statistically significant difference between the control group ( P=0.720). The number of TRPV1 positive cells in the hippocampus of TMJOA rats significantly increased. The number of TRPV1 positive cells reached its peak in the second week of modeling, and then gradually decreased in the fourth and sixth weeks ( P<0.001). There was no statistically significant difference between the control group ( P=0.776). Conclusions:In the MIA induced rat TMJOA model, the expression of TRPV1 in TG and hippocampal tissue, as well as the expression of GFAP in TNC, were upregulated, which may be involved in the occurrence and development of TMJOA pain and related to the development of TMJOA lesions.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the clinical characteristics, treatment and prognosis of adult AML patients with NUP98::HOXA9 fusion gene. METHODS: From May 2017 to October 2023， among 2 113 AML patients who visited the Hematology Department of our hospital, patients with NUP98 rearrangements were screened. The clinical characteristics, chromosome karyotypes, immunophenotypes, gene mutations, treatment efficacy and prognosis of the patients with NUP98::HOXA9 positive were analyzed. RESULTS: Among the 2 113 AML patients, there were 18 cases with NUP98 rearrangement, including 14 NUP98::HOXA9 positive cases, with a detection rate of 0.66% (14/2 113). The median age of the NUP98::HOXA9 positive patients was 42.5 (23-64) years old. The most common chromosome karyotype was t(7; 11)(p15; p15). The immunophenotypes of all patients expressed CD13, CD33, CD117 and CD38, and most patients expressed CD34 and cMPO, while only a few expressed HLA-DR. Second-generation sequencing (NGS) was performed to detect genetic mutations associated with leukemia in all 14 patients, and the genes exhibiting a high frequency of mutation were WT1 (10/14), TET2 (7/14), and FLT3-ITD (6/14). Additionally, mutations were also observed in KRAS/NRAS, IDH1, and KIT. Of the 13 patients who received treatment, 9 achieved complete remission (CR), and all 3 patients who received azacytidine(AZA)+ venetoclax (VEN) regimen achieved CR after the first course of treatment. Within this cohort, 6 patients were classified as relapsed/refractory (6/13). 4 patients underwent allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT), of which two achieved long-term survival. The median follow-up time was 12 (2.1-65.0) months, while the median overall survival (OS) and relapse-free survival (RFS) were recorded as 11.4 months and 9.6 months, respectively. CONCLUSION The most common type of NUP98 rearrangement in adults AML patients is NUP98::HOXA9 , which is often accompanied by somatic mutations in WT1, TET2, and FLT3-ITD. These patients are prone to relapse, have short survival time, and generally face poor prognoses. Hopefully, utilization of the AZA+VEN regimen is anticipated to enhance the rate of induced remission in the patients, and some patients may prolong their survival through allo-HSCT. However, more effective treatment methods are still needed to improve the overall prognosis of these patients.
