ObjectiveTo analyze the incidence rate and mortality of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and their changing trends among the registered residents in Xiaoshan District, Hangzhou City from 2017 to 2023, so as to provide references for formulating policies related to AMI prevention. MethodsThe morbidity and mortality data of AMI among the registered residents in Xiaoshan District from 2017 to 2023 were collected through the Hangzhou Chronic Disease and Death Cause Monitoring System. Software such as Excel 2019, SPSS 25.0 and Joinpoint 4.9.1.0 were used to calculate the incidence rate, mortality, and average annual percentage change (AAPC) of AMI. ResultsFrom 2017 to 2023, the average annual crude incidence rate, age-standardized incidence rate using China standard population (ASIRC), and the age-standardized incidence rate using World standard population (ASIRW) of AMI in Xiaoshan District were 48.25/100 000, 29.14/100 000, and 21.64/100 000, respectively, and, from which the AAPCs were 5.495%, 6.010%, and 6.533%, respectively, all showing an upward trend. The average annual crude mortality rate, the age-standardized mortality rate using China standard population (ASMRC), and the age-standardized mortality rate using World standard population (ASMRW) were 11.76/100 000, 6.52/100 000, and 4.71/100 000, respectively, from which the AAPCs were -9.669%, -10.433% and -9.615%, respectively, all showing a downward trend. The average annual crude incidence rate of AMI was higher in males (65.87/100 000) than that in females (31.31/100 000). Moreover, the average annual crude mortality rate of AMI was higher in males (14.08/100 000) than that in females (9.52/100 000), and the difference was statistically significant (all P<0.001) .After age grouping, the crude incidence rate of AMI among the residents aged 35-, 45-, 55-, and 65- years in Xiaoshan District from 2017 to 2023 showed an upward trend over time, with AAPCs of 16.993%, 17.149%, 8.523%, and 5.002%, respectively. While the crude mortality rate in residents aged 35-, 75-, and 85-102 years showed an decreasing trend over time, with AAPCs of -23.977%, -15.467%, and -17.415%, respectively, but there was no statistically significant difference in the trends in incidence rate and mortality of other age groups (all P>0.05). ConclusionThe situation of AMI prevention and control among the registered residents in Xiaoshan District is not optimistic, and targeted measures should be strengthened for the male residents aged ≥35 years old.

BackgroundSeveral studies have confirmed that there is a relationship among parenting rearing behaviors， adolescent depression and rumination， moreover， rumination has been found to mediate the relationship between overall parenting rearing behaviors and adolescent depression， while little is known about the mediating role of rumination in the relationship between each dimension of parenting rearing behaviors and adolescent depression. ObjectiveTo explore the mediating role of rumination in the relationship between each dimension of parenting rearing behaviors and adolescent depression， so as to provide reference for the prevention of adolescent depression. MethodsIn March and April 2022， a stratified random sampling technique was utilized to select 302 students in grades 7 to 12 at a middle school in Ningxian county， Gansu Province as the research subjects. The Beck Depression Inventory-II of Chinese Version （BDI-II-C）， short-form Egna Minnen av Barndoms Uppfostran （S-EMBU） and Ruminative Response Scale （RRS） were administered to all subjects. Pearson correlation coefficients were calculated. Amos 24.0 was used to check the presence of mediation effect. ResultsA total of 302 （94.08%） completed valid questionnaires. Correlation analysis indicated that the scores of both father's and mother's emotional warmth dimension in the S-EMBU were negatively correlated with the BDI-II-C scores （r=-0.424， -0.297， P<0.01）， RRS total score （r=-0.347~-0.175， P<0.01） and RRS each factor score （r=-0.179~-0.285， P<0.01）； the scores of both father's and mother's rejection dimension in the S-EMBU were positively correlated with the BDI-II-C scores （r=0.355， 0.248， P<0.01）， RRS total score （r=0.262~0.358， P<0.01） and RRS each factor score （r=0.274~0.339， P<0.01）； the scores of both father's and mother's overprotection dimension in the S-EMBU were positively correlated with the BDI-II-C scores （r=0.286， 0.245， P<0.01）， RRS total score （r=0.175~0.333， P<0.01） and RRS each factor score （r=0.150~0.255， P<0.01）. Rumination might mediated the relationship of father's emotional warmth， father's overprotection， mother's overprotection， and mother's rejection with adolescent depression， the effect value were -0.110， 0.221， -0.121， 0.136， and the effect size were 36.07%， 100.00%， 100.00%， 100.00%. ConclusionRumination may play a mediation role in the relationship of father's emotional warmth， father's overprotection， mother's overprotection， and mother's rejection with adolescent depression. ［Funded by Shaanxi Provincial Key Research and Development Program （number， 2024SF-YBXM-078）； Reaearch and Development Fund of the First Affliated Hoapital of Xi'an JiaoTong University （number， 2022HL-23）］

Objective To analyze the distribution characteristics of 13 common respiratory pathogens in children in Zibo area from 2020 to 2022.Methods A total of 3091 hospitalized children with respiratory infections admitted to Zibo Maternal and Child Health Hospital from January 2020 to December 2022 were selected as the subjects.Throat swabs or bronchoalveolar lavage fluid samples were collected from the patients,and 13 common respiratory pathogens were tested to analyze the distribution differences among different genders,ages,and seasons.Results Among 3091 pediatric patients,1794 were found to be infected with pathogens.The top three pathogens were Mycoplasma pneumoniae,rhinovirus,and respiratory syncytial virus(RSV).The single infection rate was 47.75％,while the mixed infection rate was 10.28％,with the most common scenario being a mixed infection of two pathogens.There were statistically significant differences in the pathogen profiles across different age groups(P＜0.001):infants had the highest detection rate of RSV,young children were primarily infected with rhinovirus,preschool and school-age children were predominantly infected with Mycoplasma pneumoniae.Seasonal distribution showed that the highest positive rate was in autumn,while the lowest was in spring(P＜0.05).In spring,the main pathogens were rhinovirus and Mycoplasma pneumoniae;in summer,they were rhinovirus and parainfluenza virus;in autumn,they were Mycoplasma pneumoniae and RSV;and in winter,the detection rates of Mycoplasma pneumoniae and influenza B virus were higher.Conclusion From 2020 to 2022,Mycoplasma pneumoniae,rhinovirus and RSV were the main pathogens of children's respiratory tract infection in Zibo area,and there were significant differences in the distribution of pathogens among different ages and seasons.

Objective:To compare the clinical characteristics of neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD) patients with or without secondary subretinal fibrosis (SF).Methods:A retrospective case-control study. A total of 88 patients (92 eyes) diagnosed with nAMD at Department of Ophthalmology, Xiyuan Hospital of China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences from January 2020 to January 2024 were enrolled in this study. All eyes underwent best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), color fundus photography, and optical coherence tomography (OCT) examinations. BCVA was measured using the international standard visual acuity chart and converted to logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution for statistical analysis. SF area was measured on color fundus images. OCT was used to assess the presence of shallow irregular retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) elevation, RPE detachment, ellipsoid zone/external limiting membrane disruption, subretinal fluid and/or intraretinal fluid, thinning of the inner nuclear layer or inner plexiform layer, complete RPE and outer retinal atrophy (cRORA), epiretinal membrane, and suprachoroidal fluid. Device-integrated software measured central retinal thickness (CRT), subfoveal choroidal thickness (SFCT), and the height and width of subfoveal fibrosis in SF eyes. Based on the presence of SF, patients were divided into the SF group (47 eyes) and the non-SF (NSF) group (45 eyes). Baseline characteristics, OCT, and color fundus photography imaging features were compared between groups. Independent samples t tests were used for intergroup comparisons, and multiple linear regression was performed to analyze potential factors influencing SF height. Results:Compared with the NSF group, the SF group had a longer disease duration, longer symptom onset to initial treatment interval to receiving anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) drug treatment, a lower proportion of patients receiving 3 anti-VEGF drug injections within 6 months, worse BCVA, thicker SFCT, higher rates of pigment epithelial detachment and inner nuclear layer or inner plexiform layer thinning, and a lower rate of subretinal fluid ( P<0.05). No significant differences were observed in CRT or the proportions of irregular retinal pigment epithelia, ellipsoid zone/external limiting membrane disruption, cRORA, suprachoroidal fluid, or epiretinal membrane between the two groups ( P>0.05). Conclusion:nAMD eyes with secondary SF exhibit distinct OCT imaging features compared to NSF eyes.

Objective:To investigate the effect of polystyrene microplastics(PS-MPs)combined with high-fat treatment on vascular endothelial cells.Methods:Human umbilical vein endothelial cells(HUVECs)were cultured in the DMEM medium containing 5%fe-tal bovine serum.HUVECs were treated with conventional culture,high-fat treatment,and PS-MPs combined with high-fat treatment.The experiment was conducted in the three groups of control group,high-fat treatment group and PS-MPs+high-fat treatment group.CCK-8 assay was used to measure cell viability,F-actin staining was used to observe cell morphological changes,and flow cytometry,scratch assay,and tube formation assay were used to measure the apoptosis,migration,and tube-forming ability of cells.Results:After HUVECs were exposed to the high-fat environment,there was a significant reduction in cell viability,shrinkage of cells,a signifi-cant increase in cell apoptosis,and significant reductions in cell migration and tube-forming ability.Compared with the high-fat treat-ment group,there were no significant changes in cell viability,cell morphology,cell apoptosis,and cell migration ability after PS-MPs combined with high-fat treatment,but the tube-forming ability of cells was further impaired.Conclusion:High-fat treatment will affect cell viability,change cell morphology,and damage vascular endothelial cell function,and PS-MPs combined with high-fat treat-ment can aggravate the damage of vascular endothelial cell function.

Objective:To investigate the impact of coronary angiography-derived index of microcirculatory resistance (caIMR) on the long-term prognosis of patients with coronary heart disease (CHD) undergoing elective percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).Methods:The study was a retrospective cohort study conducted at a single centre. Patients who successfully underwent elective PCI with pre-and post-PCI caIMR measurements in Peking University First Hospital between August 2013 and December 2020 were included. Then patients were categorised into three groups based on pre-and post-PCI caIMR: post-PCI caIMR<25 U group, pre-PCI caIMR<25 U and post-PCI caIMR≥25 U group, and both pre-and post-PCI caIMR≥25 U group. Collected clinical data of patients, including comorbid diabetes mellitus.The primary endpoint was a composite endpoint, defined as a composite of all-cause death, non-fatal myocardial infarction, and any revascularisation. The association between caIMR-based groupings and clinical outcomes was analysed using Cox proportional hazards regression models.Results:A total of 625 patients who underwent successful elective PCI were included in the study, among whom 294 (47.0%) had stable angina. The age was (64.5±10.1) years, and 440 (70.4%) patients were male. Over a median follow-up of 3.69 (1.80, 5.80) years, 122 patients (19.5%) experienced composite endpoint events. Post-PCI caIMR≥25 U in combination with diabetes mellitus was associated with an increased risk of the composite endpoint compared to those with post-PCI caIMR<25 U and without diabetes mellitus (adjusted HR=2.13, 95% CI 1.17-3.88, P=0.014). In the combined analysis, compared with post-PCI caIMR<25 U group, those with both pre-and post-PCI caIMR≥25 U had higher risks of composite endpoint (adjusted HR=2.01, 95% CI 1.18-3.43, P=0.010) and any revascularisation (adjusted HR=2.12, 95% CI 1.17-3.84, P=0.013). The pre-PCI caIMR<25 U and post-PCI caIMR≥25 U group showed no statistically significant differences in any of the endpoints compared to post-PCI caIMR<25 U group. Conclusions:Integrated pre-and post-procedural assessment of caIMR may enhance risk stratification in patients with coronary heart disease. Persistent coronary microvascular dysfunction present both before and after PCI, as measured by caIMR, serves as an independent risk factor for adverse events in patients with coronary heart disease undergoing elective PCI.

Objective:To investigate the application and management status of midline catheters in 1 954 hospitals, providing a basis for optimizing intravenous therapy nursing practices.Methods:This study used convenience sampling. From November 2023, members of the Intravenous Therapy Nursing Professional Committee of the Chinese Nursing Association selected 1 954 hospitals across various regions of China. Questionnaire on the Current Status of Intravenous Therapy in Hospitals at All Levels designed by the committee, based on literature review and expert discussions, was used to collect data on intravenous therapy practices in different hospitals. Multiple response analysis was applied to analysis the results of multiple-choice questions, where response numbers represent the total number of times each option was selected, and response rates refer to the proportion of selected times for each option out of all selected responses.Results:A total of 1 954 questionnaires were distributed across 31 provinces/municipalities/autonomous regions, and 1 954 valid questionnaires were returned, achieving a 100.0% valid response rate. Among the hospitals surveyed, 844 used midline catheters. Regarding the skin disinfection area for midline catheter insertion, the highest response rate was for a range of>20 cm. The highest response rate for catheter insertion techniques was ultrasound-guided Seldinger puncture. The highest response rate for maintenance interval was once a week. The top three responses for nursing documentation related to midline catheters were informed consent for intubation, puncture record, and maintenance record. The most frequently chosen processes were catheter placement, maintenance, removal, and complication management processes. The qualification for midline catheter intravenous therapy specialist nurses was mostly obtained through specialized nurse training, followed by hospital-based and department-based training.Conclusions:The application of midline catheters has rapidly developed but still reveals some deficiencies, including the choice of puncture tools, infection control, and catheter maintenance. It is recommended to improve nursing documentation and management processes related to midline catheters, establish industry standards suitable for China's national conditions, and strengthen and standardize the specialized training of intravenous therapy nurses to promote the healthy development of intravenous therapy in China.
