Objective To investigate the relationship of triglyceride-glucose(TyG)index and atherogenic index of plasma(AIP)with positive remodeling of coronary arteries in elderly coro-nary heart disease(CHD)patients with concomitant type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM).Methods A total of 120 elderly CHD patients with concomitant T2DM admitted to our department from January 2022 to June 2023 were continuously recruited,and according to the remodeling index,they were divided into positive remodeling group(47 cases)and non-positive remodeling group(73 cases).The clinical data were compared between the two groups.Multivariate logistic analysis was used to identify the risk factors for positive remodeling of coronary artery.Spearman correla-tion analysis was employed to analyze the correlation of TyG and AIP with positive remodeling.ROC curve was plotted to analyze the predictive value of TyG and AIP for the remodeling.Results The positive remodeling group had larger ratio of smoking,higher TG and HbA1c levels,and in-creased TyG index and AIP,but lower HDL-C and blood calcium levels than the non-positive re-modeling group(P<0.05,P<0.01).Univariate logistic regression analysis showed that smoking,TG,HDL-C,HbA1c,blood calcium,TyG and AIP were risk factors for positive coronary artery remodeling in elderly patients with CHD and T2DM(P<0.05,P<0.01).Multivariate logistic re-gression analysis showed that TyG index(OR=7.253,95%CI:2.458-13.364,P=0.035)and AIP(OR=6.017,95%CI:2.205-12.025,P=0.030)were independent risk factors for positive coronary artery remodeling in elderly patients with CHD and T2DM(P<0.05).The AUC value of TyG index and AIP in predicting positive coronary artery remodeling in elderly CHD patients with T2DM was 0.783 and 0.766,respectively,and the value of their combination in the prediction was 0.868,which was significantly better than the indicator alone(P<0.05).Conclusion TyG in-dex and AIP are closely associated with positive coronary artery remodeling in elderly CHD pa-tients with T2DM,and can be used as effective indicators in the prediction of positive remodeling,which is of great significance for early clinical identification of high-risk patients and formulation of individual intervention strategies.

Objective:To investigate differential gene expression, enriched biological processes, and pathway differences between residents of a high-background radiation area (HBRA), Yangjiang, and a control area—Enping.Methods:Seven residents were selected from the HBRA (the HBRA group) and seven from the control area (the control group) using the two-stage random sampling method. The cumulative radiation dose for each individual was calculated based on the ambient gamma exposure levels. Peripheral blood samples were collected and analyzed via high-throughput sequencing to identify differentially expressed genes. Subsequent analyses included gene ontology (GO) for biological process (BP), Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway analysis, and gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA).Results:The median ages of the HBRA and control groups had no statistically significant difference ( P = 0.370). The cumulative external doses for the HBRA and control groups were (99.59±20.07) and (33.82±10.61) mSv, respectively. This difference was statistically significant ( t = -5.88, P = 0.001). High-throughput sequencing identified 1 224 differentially expressed genes in the HBRA group, including 32 senescence-related genes, compared to the control group. The result of GO-BP analysis showed that these genes were predominantly enriched in cell signaling, biosynthesis, localization, cell cycle regulation, and cellular stress responses. KEGG analysis revealed significant enrichment in the chemokine and MAPK signaling pathways, as well as in pathways related to the cell cycle, autophagy, and mitophagy. Furthermore, GSEA analysis confirmed that the differentially expressed genes were mainly related to cell cycle regulation and mitochondrial functions. Conclusions:Differentially expressed mRNAs are found in the peripheral blood of residents in the HBRA. These mRNAs are predominantly associated with key biological processes and pathways, including cell cycle regulation, chemokine and MAPK signaling pathways, and mitophagy.

Vaccination is an effective measure to control infectious diseases and provides lifelong health protection for the public. In recent years, vaccination for adults, especially the elderly, has gradually attracted attention in China, but its vaccination rate is significantly lower than that in some developed countries. To improve adult vaccine coverage, an immunization service model featuring adult vaccine prescriptions has been explored in some provinces of China. This study describes the implementation and characteristics of an adult vaccine prescription pilot program in Shandong Province and discusses considerations related to the concept, compliance, advantages, and difficulties of the vaccine prescription model. Suggestions for developing the vaccine prescription system in China are also provided.

Objective:To analyze the changing trends and area specific differences in influenza vaccination coverage in key populations in Shandong Province and provide evidence for influenza prevention and control.Methods:The information about influenza vaccination in Shandong during 2015 to 2024 were collected from the Immunization Information System of Shandong Province, and the annual percentage change and average annual percentage change (AAPC) were calculated by using software Joinpoint 5.3.0. The trend of changes in vaccination coverage was analyzed and area specific differences were compared.Results:From 2015 to 2024, the influenza vaccination coverage in medical personnel ranged from 0.02% to 20.54% in Shandong (AAPC=63.24%, 95% CI: 51.37%-100.65%), showing a rapid increase from 2015 to 2020 ( P<0.001) and a stead decrease from 2020 to 2024 ( P=0.008). The vaccination coverage in teachers and students ranged from 1.51% to 6.88% (AAPC=12.33%, 95% CI: -0.97%-36.27%), with a monotonic increase from 2015 to 2024 ( P=0.070). The vaccination coverage in elderly people aged ≥60 years ranged from 0.03% to 11.68% (AAPC=102.65%, 95% CI: 64.16%-208.69%), with a rapid increase from 2015 to 2017 ( P<0.001), a steady increase from 2017 to 2020 ( P<0.001), and a slower increasee from 2020 to 2024 ( P=0.046). There were area speciific differences in the temporal trend of influenza vaccination coverage. Compared with areas with low gross domestic product (GDP), the areas with high and medium GDP had significantly higher vaccination coverage and increase rates. Conclusions:The influenza vaccination coverage in key populations showed an upward trend in Shandong from 2015 to 2024, and the vaccination coverage in elderly people aged ≥60 years increased significantly. However, it is important to increase vaccination coverage in areas with low GDP and in teachers and students.
