ObjectiveTo analyze the epidemiological characteristics of influenza virus in severe acute respiratory tract infection (SARI) cases in Jingzhou City, so as to provide a scientific basis for the formulation of influenza prevention and control policies in Jingzhou City. MethodsSARI surveillance was carried out in two sentinel hospitals in Jingzhou City from 2018 to 2023. Respiratory tract samples were collected from cases and influenza virus nucleic acid was measured using real-time fluorescent polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). ResultsA total of 2 603 SARI samples were tested from 2018 to 2023, and 338 samples were positive for influenza virus nucleic acid, with a detection rate of 12.99%. The highest positive detection rate was 20.22% in 2019, followed by 14.29% in 2022, and the lowest detection rate was 7.75% in 2020. There were significant differences for the positive detection rates of influenza in each monitoring year (χ²=30.386, P<0.001). There were epidemic peaks in the five surveillance years from 2018 to 2023 except 2020. There were winter epidemic peaks during 2018‒2019 and 2021‒2022, and an obvious summer epidemic peak was also observed from 2019 to 2022. H1N1, H3N2, B-Victoria and B-Yamagata were alternately prevalent in the six surveillance years. In 2019, H1N1, H3N2 and B-Victoria were alternately prevalent with time progress, in 2021 only B-Victoria was prevalent, and in 2022 H3N2 and B-Victoria were prevalent. There was no statistically significant difference for the positive detection rates of influenza virus between different genders (χ²=0.178, P=0.673). Among the four age groups, the positive rate of influenza virus in the age group of 15‒<25 years old was the highest (40.91%), followed by the age group of 25‒<60 years old (21.31%). There were statistically significant differences for the positive rates of influenza virus among different age groups (χ²=24.496, P<0.001). ConclusionThe surveillance of SARI cases in Jingzhou City could serve as an effective supplement to the surveillance of ILI in sentinel hospitals. It is suggested to expand the surveillance scope, strengthen public education and outreach on the prevention and control of respiratory diseases, thereby providing a scientific basis for influenza prevention and control.

Primary open angle glaucoma(POAG)is a chronic, progressive optic neuropathy characterized by pathologically elevated intraocular pressure(IOP), which is the main high-risk factor, although the etiology is still unclear. Due to the insidious onset, many patients are already in the intermediate or advanced stages at the first presentation. At these stages, optic nerve damage is often severe, the target IOP requirement is stringent(below 12 mmHg), with poor tolerance to treatment, which necessitates comprehensive treatment approaches to control disease progression. This review systematically summarizes recent advances in the clinical management of advanced POAG, including medications, laser therapy, trabeculectomy, glaucoma drainage device implantation, minimally invasive glaucoma surgery and other emerging therapies. It elaborates on the mechanisms of action, efficacy, safety, suitable populations, and indications for switching treatments. Incorporating the latest clinical research data up to 2025, the analysis evaluates the impact of different treatment approaches on clinical practice and explores the future development trends, aiming to provide comprehensive references for individualized treatment strategies to maximize preservation of visual function in patients with advanced POAG.

Ecological cultivation is an important way for the sustainable production of traditional Chinese medicine in the context of the carbon peaking and carbon neutrality goals. Facility cultivation and simulative habitat cultivation modes have been developed and applied to develop the endangered Dendrobium huoshanense on the basis of protection. However, the differences in the greenhouse gas emissions and global warming potential of these cultivation modes remain unexplored, which limits the accurate assessment of carbon-friendly ecological cultivation modes of D. huoshanense. Greenhouse gas emission flux monitoring based on the static chamber method provides an effective way to solve this problem. Therefore, this study conducted a field experiment in the facility cultivation and simulative habitat cultivation modes at a D. huoshanense cultivation base in Dabie Mountains, Anhui Province. From April 2023 to March 2024, samples of greenhouse gases were collected every month, and the concentrations of CO_2, CH_4, and N_2O of the samples were then detected by gas chromatography. The greenhouse gas emission fluxes, cumulative emissions, and global warming potential were further calculated, and the following results were obtained.(1)The two cultivation modes of D. huoshanense showed significant differences in greenhouse gas emission fluxes, especially the CO_2 emission flux, with a pattern of facility cultivation>simulative habitat cultivation [(35.60±11.70)mg·m~(-2)·h~(-1) vs(2.10±4.59)mg·m~(-2)·h~(-1)].(2) The annual cumulative CO_2 emission flux in the case of facility cultivation was significantly higher than that of simulative habitat cultivation[(3 077.00±842.00)kg·hm~(-2) vs(221.00±332.00)kg·hm~(-2)], while no significant difference was found in annual cumulative CH_4 and N_2O emission fluxes.(3) The facility cultivation mode had a significantly higher global warming potential than the simulative habitat cultivation mode [(3 053.00±847.00)kg·hm~(-2) vs(196.00±362.00)kg·hm~(-2)]. Overall, the simulative habitat cultivation of D. huoshanense has obvious carbon-friendly characteristics compared with facility cultivation, which is in line with the concept of ecological cultivation of medicinal plants. This study is of great reference significance for the implementation and promotion of the ecological cultivation mode of D. huoshanense under carbon peaking and carbon neutrality goals.

OBJECTIVES: To investigate the effect of Haematococcus pluvialis (HP) on bleomycin (BLM)-induced pulmonary fibrosis in mice and on TGF-β1-induced human fetal lung fibroblasts (HFL1). METHODS: Thirty male C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into control group, BLM-induced pulmonary fibrosis model group, low- and high-dose HP treatment groups (3 and 21 mg/kg, respectively), and 300 mg/kg pirfenidone (positive control) group. The effects of drug treatment for 21 days were assessed by examining respiratory function, lung histopathology, and expression of fibrosis markers in the lung tissues of the mouse models. In TGF-β1-induced HFL1 cell cultures, the effects of treatment with 120, 180 and 240 μg/mL HP or 1.85 μg/mL pirfenidone for 48 h on expression levels of fibrosis markers were evaluated. Transcriptome analysis was carried out using the control cells and cells treated with TGF-β1 and 240 μg/mL HP. RESULTS: HP obviously alleviated BLM-induced lung function damage and fibrotic changes in mice, evidenced by improved respiratory function, lung tissue morphology and structure, inflammatory infiltration, and collagen deposition and reduced expressions of fibrotic proteins. HP at the high dose produced similar effect to PFD. In TGF-β1-induced HFL1 cells, treatment with 240 μg/mL HP significantly reduced the mRNA and protein expression levels of α-SMA and FN. Transcriptome analysis revealed that multiple key genes and pathways mediated the protective effect of HP against pulmonary fibrosis. CONCLUSIONS HP alleviates pulmonary fibrosis in both the mouse model and cell model, possibly as the result of the synergistic effects of its multiple active components.

OBJECTIVE To explore the clinical efficacy of dapagliflozin for stable coronary heart disease combined with heart failure （HF）. METHODS A prospective study method was employed. A total of 158 patients with stable coronary heart disease and HF admitted to our hospital from January 1， 2023， to January 1， 2024， were enrolled. Using a random number table method， they were divided into dapagliflozin group （n＝76） and conventional treatment group （n＝82）. All patients received conventional treatment， including diuretic， aspirin， losartan， metoprolol and statins. Patients in the dapagliflozin group were additionally administered Dapagliflozin tablets at a dose of 10 mg once daily on top of the conventional treatment. The treatment duration was six months. The changes in left ventricular ejection fraction （LVEF）， left ventricular end-systolic diameter （LVESD）， left ventricular end-diastolic diameter （LVEDD）， fasting blood glucose， N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide （NT-proBNP）， the number of angina attacks， the duration of angina attacks， and lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2 before and after treatment were compared between the two groups. The occurrence of adverse reactions such as renal dysfunction， liver dysfunction， urinary system infections， new-onset dialysis， hypotension and hypoglycemia was evaluated in the two groups during treatment. RESULTS During the study， 16 patients were lost to follow-up. Ultimately， 70 patients in the dapagliflozin group and 72 patients in the conventional treatment group completed the study. Before treatment， there were no statistically significant differences in the aforementioned indicators between the two groups （P＞0.05）. Compared with before treatment， after treatment， both groups showed significant shortening in LVESD and LVEDD， significant increases in LVEF， significant reductions in NT-proBNP and lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2 levels， and significant reductions in the number of angina attacks and the duration of angina attacks （P＜0.05）； the improvements in the dapagliflozin group were more significant than those in the conventional treatment group （P＜0.05）. There was no statistically significant difference between the two groups in fasting blood glucose levels and the incidence of the aforementioned adverse reactions （P＞0.05）. CONCLUSIONS Adding dapagliflozin to conventional treatment can shorten LVESD and LVEDD， increase LVEF levels， reduce NT-proBNP and lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2 levels， and decrease the number and duration of angina attacks in patients with stable coronary heart disease combined with HF， thereby improving their cardiac function， and demonstrates good safety.

Objective With the gradual advancement of China's lunar exploration program and the construction plan for lunar bases,the technology of docking and assembling mobile lunar modules has become an important means for long-term habitation of lunar mobile modules and the construction of lunar bases in the future.Therefore,the design of flexible docking structures between lunar modules has become an urgent problem to be solved.Methods To address the issue of precise docking of mobile lunar modules on the lunar surface,which is severely affected by the uneven terrain and settlement,this paper proposes a flexible docking segment structure composed of a skin and a skeleton.Results The structure deforms to meet the large tolerance docking range required between lunar mobile modules.In terms of skin design,the docking segment structure uses a variety of composite materials to form a flexible skin to cope with the lunar surface environment problems such as radiation,wide temperature variations,and high-speed meteoroid impacts.In terms of skeleton design,a corrugated skeleton structure scheme is presented.Conclusion Based on Ansys and Adams software,static and dynamic simulation analyses of the skeleton structure were conducted,verifying the feasibility of this structure as a flexible docking structure between lunar modules.

【Objective】 To investigate the distribution of body mass index(BMI) among preschool children in Jingzhou City and its correlation with family conditions and feeding practices, so as to provide scientific basis for the health management of overweight and obesity in children. 【Methods】 In August 2022, a cross-sectional study was conducted in Jingzhou City using stratified cluster random sampling. Data on the height, weight, family conditions and feeding practices of children aged 3 - 6 years attending kindergartens were collected. Then BMI was calculated, and multivariate linear regression analysis was performed for data analysis. 【Results】 A total of 14 237 preschool children were surveyed. The overall average BMI was (16.40±3.40) kg/m². Among them, the porpotion of children whose BMI were in lower, lower-middle, middle, upper-middle and upper range was 0.05%, 1.95%, 86.49%, 4.83% and 6.67%, respectively. Multivariate linear regression analysis revealed that factors such as cesarean birth(β=0.17), paternal smoking(β=0.13), maternal smoking(β=0.39), being female(β=-0.22), total pre-tax family income(β=-0.13), private kindergartens (β=0.22) and a diet pattern primarily consisting of fried chicken, burgers, fries, carbonated drinks, and fruit juices (β=0.46) were linearly correlated with children′s BMI(P<0.05). 【Conclusions】 Overweight and obesity are prevalent among preschool children in Jingzhou City, with a higher proportion of BMI in the upper-middle and upper ranges. Parents and society should collaborate and take appropriate measures to ensure the healthy growth of children.

In order to understand nurses’ willingness to participate in humanistic nursing training and its influencing factors, and provide reference for managers to understand the current situation and improve nurses’ enthusiasm for humanistic nursing training. The convenience sampling method was used to investigate 23 707 nurses in 28 provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities directly under the central government) through a self-designed questionnaire distributed on the Internet. The results showed that 98.1% of nurses thought that participating in humanistic nursing related training was helpful to clinical work, but only 88.6% of the respondents were willing to participate in humanistic nursing training. Thirty factors were analyzed from four aspects of basic characteristics of individuals, cognitive relevant experience and organizational atmosphere. Fifteen factors had significant significance in binary Logistic regression analysis (P<0.05). Among them, the factors that had a positive impact on training willingness were: marriage, education, professional title, post establishment, agree with humanistic care is the basic duty of a nurse praised, experience of being praised at work, family support, rapport with patients, passion of colleagues to participate in training, sustained high-quality care demonstration activities, join the humanistic care related organization, hospital reimbursement of training expenses (OR value of 6.559~1.113, P<0.001). The OR value of humanistic nursing as a nurse’s responsibility was 6.559 and the 95%CI was 5.585~7.702. The factors that hindered nurses from participating in training were: work occupied most of time and energy, think humanistic nursing is abstract and difficult to understand, think the mastered humanistic knowledge and skills meet the needs of work (OR value of 0.657~0.722, P<0.001). Through the analysis, it is considered that nurses have a extremely consistent high recognition of the significance of humanistic nursing training, but their willingness to receive training is affected by many factors such as individual experience, cognitive attitude and organizational atmosphere. In order to realize nurses’ high recognition of humanistic nursing training to high enthusiasm of behavior, the aspects of individual cognition and organizational atmosphere must be discussed.

Objective To understand the epidemiological characteristics and current situation of pertussis in Hubei Province from 2016 to 2021. Methods Data on the incidence of pertussis and immunization history of cases in Hubei Province from 2016 to 2021 were collected and descriptive epidemiological analysis was conducted. Results From 2016 to 2021, a total of 1 236 pertussis cases were reported in Hubei Province, with an average annual reported incidence rate of 0.35/100 000. The average annual reported incidence of pertussis in the age group ≤ 5 years old was 6.22/100 000, and the age group <1 year old reported the highest annual incidence rate (21.51/100 000). The proportion of pertussis among preschool children and students had increased significantly since 2020. Among the 1 111 cases with a known immunization history, 17.55% were under the age of vaccination , 41.85% were not vaccinated, and 17.46% had completed the whole course of vaccination. Conclusion Since 2016, the incidence of pertussis in Hubei Province has been on the rise. The risk of pertussis is higher in infants and young children who have not reached the age of vaccination and who have not been vaccinated in time according to the immunization program after reaching the age of vaccination. The timeliness and vaccination rate of DTP vaccine should be improved to reduce the risk of pertussis in infants and young children. In addition, more attention should be paid to the prevalence of pertussis among preschool children and students.
