Objective: To understand the situation of mosquito larva breeding and adult mosquito density among schools in Yangpu District, Shanghai Municipality before the start of the fall semester, so as to provide insights into mosquito prevention and control in schools. Methods: A stratified sampling method was used to select four schools each from universities, primary and secondary schools, and preschool institutions as survey sites. A survey of mosquito larva breeding sites and adult mosquito density was carried out in August each year from 2021 to 2023. The mosquito larva breeding sites in small and large water bodies were investigated by visual inspection and spoon trapping methods, and adult mosquito density was investigated by human-induced stinging method. The positive rate of mosquito larva breeding sites and adult mosquito landing index were analyzed. Results: Totally 1 253 mosquito larva breeding sites were investigated from 2021 to 2023, and the positive rate was 4.07% (51 positive sites). The positive rates of mosquito larva breeding sites in universities, primary and secondary schools and preschool institutions were 2.36%, 4.05% and 8.30%, respectively. The top three positive breeding sites in small water bodies were tyres (6.67%), small stagnant water in green belts (6.04%) and unused containers (5.92%), and Aedes albopictus was the dominant species (97.21%). The top three positive breeding sites in large water bodies were rainwater wells (3.90%), landscape water bodies (3.45%) and sewage wells (3.23%), and Culex pipiens pallens and Aedes albopictus each accounted for 50.00%. A total of 200 adult mosquitoes were captured from 2021 to 2023, with Aedes albopictus being dominant (93.00%). The total landing index decreased and then rebounded slightly from 2021 to 2023, with the highest seen in 2021 as 1.78 mosquitoes/0.5 hours per person. The highest mean adult mosquito landing index was 1.17 mosquitoes/0.5 hours per person in preschool institutions. Conclusions The positive rates of mosquito larva breeding sites and landing index of adult mosquitoes among schools in Yangpu District before the start of the fall semester from 2021 to 2023 were higher than the relevant provisions of the Shanghai municipal local standards. Aedes albopictus was the dominant species. Mosquito surveillance in schools should be carried out on a regular basis and hygiene management should be strengthened.

Gefitinib is the well-tolerated first-line treatment of non-small cell lung cancer. As it needs analgesics during oncology treatment, particularly in the context of the coronavirus disease, where patients are more susceptible to contract high fever and sore throat.This has increased the likelihood of taking both gefitinib and antipyretic analgesic acetaminophen (APAP). Given that gefitinib and APAP overdose can predispose patients to liver injury or even acute liver failure, there is a risk of severe hepatotoxicity when these two drugs are used concomitantly. However, little is known regarding their safety at therapeutic doses. This study simulated the administration of gefitinib and APAP at clinically relevant doses in an animal model and confirmed that gefitinib in combination with APAP exhibited additional hepatotoxicity. We found that gefitinib plus APAP significantly exacerbated cell death, whereas each drug by itself had little or minor effect on hepatocyte survival. Mechanistically, combination of gefitinib and APAP induces hepatocyte death via the apoptotic pathway obviously. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation and DNA damage accumulation are involved in hepatocyte apoptosis. Gefitinib plus APAP also promotes the expression of Kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1 (Keap1) and downregulated the antioxidant factor, Nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2), by inhibiting p62 expression.Taken together, this study revealed the potential ROS-mediated apoptosis-dependent hepatotoxicity effect of the combination of gefitinib and APAP, in which the p62/Keap1/Nrf2 signaling pathway participates and plays an important regulatory role.

【Objective】 To establish and verify a nomogram model of overall survival (OS) of prostate cancer patients based on the SEER data. 【Methods】 A total of 12 642 patients diagnosed with prostate cancer during 2010 and 2015 were extracted from the SEER database. Patients were randomly divided into the model group (n=8 850) and validation group (n=3 792). The independent risk factors for OS were analyzed with univariate Cox proportional risk regression, lasso regression and multivariate Cox proportional risk regression. A nomogram was constructed to predict the 1-year, 3-year and 5-year OS. The prediction potential of the model was evaluated with the consistency index (C-index), calibration curve and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. 【Results】 Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that age, T stage, N stage, M stage, bone metastasis, liver metastasis and regional lymphadenectomy were independent risk factors for OS (P<0.05). The seven factors were used to construct an OS nomogram model. The C-index of the modeling set was 0.750, and the area under the ROC curve (AUC) at 1, 3 and 5 years were 0.77, 0.77 and 0.76, respectively;the C-index of the validation set was 0.765, and the AUC at 1, 3 and 5 years were 0.83, 0.79 and 0.76, respectively. The calibration curves of the modelling set and validation set showed a good agreement with the actual survival prediction rate. Risk stratification of patients based on the nomogram model showed that the OS of patients in the high-risk group was significantly lower than that in the low-risk group (P<0.001). 【Conclusion】 The nomogram can be used to predict the prognosis of prostate cancer patients, and is important for individualized treatment plans.
