Recently, there has been an increasing risk of importation of tropical diseases into China and the resultant re-transmission in the country with the in-depth implementation of the “Belt and Road” Initiative, which poses a serious threat to the national public health security. To effectively respond to the cross-border transmission risk of tropical diseases and facilitate the process towards tropical disease control and elimination in China and the countries along the “Belt and Road” Initiative, this article analyzes the current status and governance risks of major imported tropical diseases, cross-border joint prevention and control polices implemented for tropical diseases and challenges in the establishment of the joint prevention and control system for tropical diseases in China, and discusses the establishment and implementation path of the joint prevention and control system for tropical diseases in countries along the “Belt and Road” Initiative. This path covers the establishment of cross-border cooperation mechanisms, research and development and pilot production of Chinese public health products, and implementation of key cross-border tropical disease prevention and control projects. The establishment of this system will further improve Chinese prevention and control capabilities for key cross-border tropical diseases, build a demonstrative prevention and control model for tropical diseases, and promote international technical exchanges and cooperation of tropical diseases.

Objective To investigate the curr-ent status of acute psychological stress among pa-tients with acute myocardial infarction after percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI).Methods A total of 150 patients with acute myocardial infarction who underwent PCI were selected as study sub-jects.The patients were surveyed through questionnaires usingBasic Information Questionnaire,the Stanford Acute Stress Response Questionnaire(SASRQ)and Comprehensive Quality of Life Assess-ment Questionnaire(GQOLI-74).Results The score of acute psychological stress in patients with acute myocardial infarction after PCI was(45.38±8.94).The acute psychological stress of patients was divided into three potential profile categories,namely low stress(C1 group,n=53),moderate stress disorder with high avoidance(C2 group,n=59),and severe stress disorder with repeated ex-perience(C3 group,n=30).There were statistically significant differences in age,gender,resi-dence style and chest pain score among the three groups(P＜0.05).The score of quality of life for patients with acute myocardial infarction after PCI was(194.67±34.95).The quality of life level of patients in C1 group was higher than that in the C2 and C3 groups,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.01).The quality of life level of patients in the C2 group was higher than that in the C3 group,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).Conclusion Clinical staff should identify the characteristics of different types of patients,attach importance to patients with a potential profile of repeated experiences of severe stress disorder,and carry out necessary psychological intervention in a timely manner to improve the subsequent treatment effect and prognosis of patients.

Objective To investigate the effect of loganin(Log)on glutamine metabolism in cervical cancer through the regula-tion of nuclear factor red blood cell 2 related factor 2(NFE2L2)-ferritin heavy chain 1(FTH1)-glutathione peroxidase 4(GPX4).Methods Bioinformatics analysis was conducted to identify common targets of Log,glutamine metabolism,and cervical cancer.Hela cells were divided into Blank,control(Ctrl),Log,cisplatin(DDP),NFE2L2 activator(TBHQ),NFE2L2 inhibitor(ML385),and TBHQ+Log groups to detect cell proliferation,invasion,apoptosis,glutamine metabolism,and the protein expression of NFE2L2,FTH1,and GPX4.A cervical cancer xenograft mouse model was established to investigate the in vivo effects of Log on the progression of cervical cancer.Results Bioinformatics analysis confirmed that NFE2L2 might be a target of Log in the treatment of cervical cancer.Both Log and DDP reduced the proliferation and invasion abilities of Hela cells,increased apoptosis,and decreased the levels of glutamine and glutamic acid,as well as the protein expression of glutaminase(GLS1)and glutamic dehydrogenase(GLUD1,P<0.05).The NFE2L2 activator TBHQ had opposite effects,whereas ML385 had a similar impact on the Log.Additionally,Log treatment inhibited the protein expression of NFE2L2,FTH1,and GPX4(P<0.05).Animal experiments showed that Log significantly inhibited cervical cancer progression(P<0.05).Conclusion Log affects cervical cancer progression via glutamine metabolism by inhibiting the NFE2L2-FTH1-GPX4 signaling pathway.

Objective To investigate the predictive value of bone metabolism parameters on cardiac autonomic nervous system function in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM).Methods A total of 328 patients with T2DM hospitalized in the Department of Endocrinology of Gansu Provincial People's Hospital were enrolled in this study from October 2022 to October 2023.According to the serum 25(OH)D level,all the participants were divided into<10 ng/ml group(n=80),10～20 ng/ml group(n=173),and 20～30 ng/ml group(n=75).Biochemical indicators,bone metabolic parameters,left ventricular mass(LVM)and left ventricular mass index(LVMI)were compared.Time domain indicators ofheart rate variability(HRV)in 24 h holter electrocardiogram,including the global standard deviation of normal sinus RR interval(SDNN),sinus RR interval mean standard deviation(SDANN),and normal continuous sinus RR interval difference root mean square(RMSSD).Meanwhile,adjacent RR interval difference>50 ms as a percentage of the total inter-period(PNN50),HRV triangle index,standard deviation of the difference between the length of the entire adjacent NN interperiod(SDSD),and 24 h holter electrocardiogram HRV time-domain relevant indicators were compared among the three groups.The influence of bone metabolism parameters on cardiac autonomic nervous function and their correlation were analyzed,and the optimal cutting point of cardiac autonomic nervous function was predicted by receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve.Results SBP,heart rate(HR),FPG,PWV,PTH and β-CTX in groups of 10 ng/ml,10～20 ng/ml and 20～30 ng/ml decreased in turn(P<0.05),while HDL-C,ABI,25(OH)D,Ca2+and PNN50 decreased.Correlation analysis between Spearman and Pearson showed that 25(OH)D was positively correlated with SDNN,HRV triangle index,PNN50 and rMSSD(P<0.01).Logistic regression analysis showed that 25(OH)D,Ca2+and HR were the influencing factors of cardiac autonomic nervous dysfunction in patients with T2DM.The ROC curve analysis showed that the areas under the ROC curve of 25(OH)D,Ca2+and HR were 0.791,0.607 and 0.629,respectively,with sensitivity of 73.4%,53.2%and 38.7%,and specificity of 74.0%,93.6%and 81.4%,respectively.Conclusions 25(OH)D is the influencing factor of cardiac autonomic nervous dysfunction in patients with T2DM,and patients with high degree of deficiency are more prone to cardiac autonomic nervous dysfunction.

Objective:To explore the potential profile categories of self-disgust in young and middle-aged breast cancer patients, and analyze the influencing factors of different categories.Methods:A convenience sampling method was used, and 270 young and middle-aged breast cancer patients admitted to the thyroid and breast cancer ward and oncology ward of Fenyang Hospital in Shanxi Province from September 2023 to April 2024 were the study subjects. The survey was conducted transect surveys using the general information questionnaire, Questionnaire for the Assessment of Self-Disgust, Social Constraints Scale, the Chronic Illness Rejection and Discrimination Scale. Potential categories of self-disgust in young and middle-aged breast cancer patients were explored using latent profile analysis, and unordered multinomial Logistic regression was employed to investigate their influencing factors.Results:A total of 234 young and middle-aged female breast cancer patients were included, with the age of (45.61±10.90) years old. Latent profile analysis revealed three potential categories of self-hatred in these patients: low disgust group (45.30%, 106/234), medium disgust group (41.45%, 97/234), and generalized high disgust group (13.25%, 31/234). Compared to the low disgust group, patients with more comorbidities and poorer self-care ability were more likely to belong to the generalized high disgust group ( OR=0.244, 8.775, both P<0.05). Patients with a longer duration of illness and higher scores on the social constraints scale and chronic illness rejection and discrimination scale were more likely to fall into the medium disgust group and the generalized high disgust group ( OR values were 0.156 - 1.317, all P<0.05). Conclusions:The level of self-disgust in young and middle-aged breast cancer patients is significantly heterogeneous. Nursing staff should formulate personalized intervention strategies according to this classification characteristic, which can be cut from the perspective of reducing patients' social restriction and chronic illness rejection and discrimination to improve patients' acceptance of the disease and self-acceptance level, and then reduce their self-disgust.

Purpose To investigate the prenatal ultrasound features and prognosis of fetal patent urachal.Materials and Methods The prenatal ultrasound characteristics of six cases with patent urachal diagnosed in Women and Children's Hospital of Chongqing Medical University from September 2018 to March 2023 were retrospectively analyzed,their pregnancy and postnatal conditions were followed up.Results In the first and second trimester of pregnancy,the prenatal ultrasonography of six fetuses showed that the epurachus was occluded.Among them,two cases were diagnosed as bladder diverticulum.The ultrasonography showed that the bladder was malformed,the top of the bladder was changed like a beak,and was connected to the umbilical cord entrance of the abdominal wall through an abnormal tube.Four cases were diagnosed as urachal fistula with allantoic cyst.Ultrasound showed that the cyst was at the root of the umbilical cord,and the cyst communicated with the bladder through an abnormal duct.The size of the cyst changed with the filling and emptying of the bladder.Color Doppler showed that the cysts were surrounded by the umbilical artery.None of the six fetuses were abnormal by chromosome examination.Among them,two fetuses with simple urachal fistula and allantoic cyst were born with good prognosis,and the remaining four fetuses were induced by other malformations.One of the six fetuses was female,and five fetuses were male.Conclusion Prenatal ultrasound of patent urachus has typical features and low correlation with chromosomal abnormalities.It is more common in males clinically and has a good prognosis without other structural abnormalities.
