Objective To systematically review international research on health communication, and to provide valuable insights and reference for China's health communication research and practice. Methods This study included 693 articles published from January 2023 to April 2024 in two authoritative academic journals in the field of health communication, ^“Health Communication^” and the ^“Journal of Health Communication^”. A systematic review was conducted on the themes, theoretical foundations, research methods, and populations of international health communication research. Results The findings in this study revealed that international health communication research topics were diverse, with hotspots including social media, health information behavior, health misinformation, stigmatization, trust, and risk perception. The results showed that 34% of the articles were based on theoretical foundations, and 93.3% employed research methods, focusing on adolescents, parents, women, and other key populations. Conclusion Domestic health communication research can expand its perspective from ^“information transmission^” to ^“social interaction^”, innovate theories and methods from ^“single paradigm" to ^“multi-integration^” and shift focus from a ^“mass perspective^” to ^“targeted care^” for the health of all populations. Domestic health communication practice can delve into the localization of social media health communication practices, the comprehensive management of health misinformation, and the critical application of new technologies.

Objective To analyze the relationship between serum nuclear factor E2-related factor 2(NRF2),heme oxygenase-1(HO-1)levels and disease activity and prognosis in patients with lupus nephritis(LN).Methods A total of 188 LN patients who visited the hospital from March 2020 to January 2022 were selected as the case group,and were divided into a stable group(60 cases,＜10 points)and an active group(128 cases,≥ 10 points)according to the Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Disease Activity Index(SLEDAI)score.Another 160 healthy subjects were selected as control group.The differences of serum NRF2 and HO-1 levels between case group and control group were compared,the serum NRF2 and HO-1 levels and renal func-tion indexes[glomerular filtration rate(GFR),serum creatinine(Scr),urea nitrogen(BUN)]were compared between stable group and active group,and the correlation between serum NRF2 and HO-1 levels and disease activity and renal function in LN patients was analyzed by Pearson.After 2 years of follow-up,LN patients were divided into good prognosis group(117 cases)and poor prognosis group(71 cases)according to the oc-currence of renal-related endpoint events.Serum NRF2,HO-1 levels and other clinical data were compared be-tween two groups,and the prognostic factors of LN patients were analyzed by multivariate Logistic regression model.A nomogram prediction model was constructed and verified based on the influencing factors.Results The levels of serum NRF2 and HO-1 in case group were lower than those in control group(P＜0.05).NRF2,HO-1 and GFR levels in active group were lower than those in stable group,and Scr,BUN and SLEDAI scores were higher than those in the stable group(P＜0.05).Pearson correlation analysis showed that,serum NRF2 and HO-1 levels were negatively correlated with SLEDAI score,Scr and BUN in LN pa-tients(r＜0,P＜0.05),and positively correlated with GFR(r＞0,P＜0.05).The NRF2,HO-1 and GFR in poor prognosis group were lower than those in good prognosis group,and the proportion of CKD stage 3-4 and SLEDAI score in poor prognosis group were higher than those in good prognosis group(P＜0.05).Multi-variate Logistic regression model showed that CKD stage 3-4 and the increase of SLEDAI score were inde-pendent risk factors for poor prognosis of LN patients(P＜0.05),while the increase of NRF2,HO-1 and GFR levels were independent protective factors(P＜0.05).The nomogram prediction model based on influen-cing factors had a good predictive value for the prognosis of LN patients.Conclusion NRF2 and HO-1 are lowly expressed in the serum of LN patients,and the two are closely related to their disease activity and renal function.The high expression of NRF2 and HO-1 will reduce the risk of renal-related endpoint events in LN patients.The nomogram prediction model based on influencing factors has a good predictive value for the prognosis of LN patients.

To ensure the equipment of aircraft works stably and reliably during extravehicular activities,the equipment exposed to vacuum requires appropriate thermal control measures.Aiming at the overall structure and thermal design of aircraft,passive thermal control measures are used to regulate the temperature of the equipment outside the aircraft.The surface temperature of the equipment under different structural and environmental conditions is calculated by simulation using thermal analysis software Thermal-Desktop,the corresponding thermal control effect is analyzed in detail,and the optimal thermal design scheme is proposed.Based on the simulation calculation,the partial passive thermal design scheme has been tested and verified through the thermal vacuum experiment.The test results show that the bottom plate of backpack is used as an isothermal radiator,the equipment mounting surface is completely in contact with the bottom plate and the thermal grease is filled between them,the maximum temperature on the equipment surface is lower than 40℃,the thermal control can provide well temperature control for the equipment.

When conducting extravehicular activities under low-gravity conditions like on the moon,the weight of the spacesuit is one of the loads that human body has to bear.The centroid position of the spacesuit will affect the motion control of the human-spacesuit system.In order to reveal the influence of the centroid position of the lunar spacesuit on human motion under lunar-gravity,a suspended 1/6 gravity simulation system was used for the experiment.When subjects were under different load centroids which include front and back on sagittal plane,left and right on coronal plane,up and down on cross-section plane,near to coordinate origin,the postures and plantar pressures of subjects during three typical movements:standing,single-knee standing and walking were captured.Inverse dynamics solution is adopted to analyze the joint torques of human body in above conditions.Combined with the subjective evaluation,the appropriate load centroid area was analyzed by comparative.The experiment shows that,human is non-sensitive to the up and down change of load centroid,the after is back change,the front and right load centroid are the mostly avoided.The results obtained by this study will provide a reference for the layout design of the lunar spacesuit.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the therapeutic potential of octaarginine (R8)-modified essential oil from Fructus Alpiniae zerumbet (EOFAZ) lipid microspheres (EOFAZ@^R8LM) for cardiovascular therapy. METHODS: EOFAZ@^R8LM was developed by leveraging the volatilization of EOFAZ and integrating it with the oil phase of LM, followed by surface modification with cell-penetrating peptide R8 to target the site of vascular endothelial injury. The therapeutic effects of this formulation in alleviating lipopolysaccharide-induced vascular endothelial inflammation were evaluated by assessing mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP), intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels, as well as inflammatory factors interleukin-6 (IL-6) and interleukin-1β (IL-1β) levels. RESULTS: EOFAZ@^R8LM effectively delivered EOFAZ to the site of injury and specifically targeted the mitochondria in vascular endothelial cells, thereby ameliorating mitochondrial dysfunction through regulation of MMP and reduction of intracellular ROS levels. Moreover, it attenuated the expression levels of IL-6 and IL-1β, exerting protective effects on the vascular endothelium. CONCLUSION Our findings highlight the significant therapeutic potential of EOFAZ@^R8LM in cardiovascular therapy, providing valuable insights for developing novel dosage forms utilizing EOFAZ for effective treatment against cardiovascular diseases.

ObjectiveTo analyze the adverse reactions associated with the clinical use of Banxia （Rhizoma Pinelliae）- Wutou （Aconitum） in the same formula， with the aim of providing a reference for the safety of their clinical application. MethodsLiterature on the clinical application of antagonistic herbs "Banxia-Wutou" used in the same formula， published from January 1st， 2014， to June 30th， 2023， was retrieved from databases including CNKI， VIP， Wanfang， SinoMed， PubMed， Cochrane Library， and Embase. A database was established， and information related to adverse reactions was extracted， including descriptions， classifications， specific manifestations， management and outcomes， patients' primary diseases （western medicine diseases and traditional Chinese medicine diagnoses and syndromes）， and medication information （dosage， ratio， administration routes， and dosage forms）. ResultsA total of 79 researches simultaneously used antagonistic herbs Banxia-Wutou in the same formula and reported associated advers reactions. Gastrointestinal adverse reactions were the most common， with 8 studies reporting management of adverse reactions and 3 studies reporting improvement with no intervention. Among the 11 researches， the adverse reaction relieved to extant， while other 69 researches didn't report the managment of adverse reaction and its prognosis. For the primary disease in western medicine system， chronic bronchitis and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease （COPD） were most common， while gastric pain was the most common symptom in traditional Chinese medicine with spleen and kidney deficiency and spleen stomach cold deficiency being the most frequent syndromes. The most common Banxia dosage was 10 g， while for the Wutou， Fuzi （Radix Aconiti Lateralis Praeparata） was predominant with the highest dose at 15 g. The most frequent herbal combination was Banxia-fuzi， with a 1∶1 ratio. The main administration route was oral， and the primary dosage form was decoction. ConclusionGastrointestinal adverse reactions are the most common in the clinical use of Banxia-Wutou antagonistic herb combinations. Research on the safety of "Banxia-Wutou" combinations should focus on respiratory system diseases and spleen-stomach related conditions.

Cholesterol (CH) plays a crucial role in enhancing the membrane stability of drug delivery systems (DDS). However, its association with conditions such as hyperlipidemia often leads to criticism, overshadowing its influence on the biological effects of formulations. In this study, we reevaluated the delivery effect of CH using widely applied lipid microspheres (LM) as a model DDS. We conducted comprehensive investigations into the impact of CH on the distribution, cell uptake, and protein corona (PC) of LM at sites of cardiovascular inflammatory injury. The results demonstrated that moderate CH promoted the accumulation of LM at inflamed cardiac and vascular sites without exacerbating damage while partially mitigating pathological damage. Then, the slow cellular uptake rate observed for CH@LM contributed to a prolonged duration of drug efficacy. Network pharmacology and molecular docking analyses revealed that CH depended on LM and exerted its biological effects by modulating peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPAR-γ) expression in vascular endothelial cells and estrogen receptor alpha (ERα) protein levels in myocardial cells, thereby enhancing LM uptake at cardiovascular inflammation sites. Proteomics analysis unveiled a serum adsorption pattern for CH@LM under inflammatory conditions showing significant adsorption with CH metabolism-related apolipoprotein family members such as apolipoprotein A-V (Apoa5); this may be a major contributing factor to their prolonged circulation in vivo and explains why CH enhances the distribution of LM at cardiovascular inflammatory injury sites. It should be noted that changes in cell types and physiological environments can also influence the biological behavior of formulations. The findings enhance the conceptualization of CH and LM delivery, providing novel strategies for investigating prescription factors' bioactivity.

In the realm of oral implantology, currently, there is no unanimous consensus or authoritative guideline regarding how to conduct implant restoration for cases involving oroantral communication or oroantral fistula. In these cases, the bony plate of the maxillary sinus floor is discontinuous, the oro-sinus mucosa is in communication, and a vertical alveolar bone defect exists. This paper presents a case of a patient with two oroantral communications who successfully underwent implant restoration via simple staged surgeries. Following a 2-year clinical follow-up, the implant remains in good condition, and the patient expresses satisfaction. The objective of this paper is to offer a simple, safe, and readily-promotable new approach for such cases.

Background and Aims:Acute inferior vena cava thrombosis(IVCT)commonly occurs secondary to inferior vena cava filter(VCF)implantation.If not promptly treated,it may lead to serious complications such as bilateral lower limb swelling and pulmonary embolism and can also reduce the likelihood of successful filter retrieval.Percutaneous mechanical thrombectomy(PMT)and catheter-directed thrombolysis(CDT)are currently the main interventional treatments for IVCT,but comparative studies evaluating their efficacy and safety remain limited.This study was to conduct a prospective randomized controlled trial to compare the clinical efficacy and safety of AngioJet mechanical thrombectomy versus conventional CDT in the treatment of acute IVCT and to explore factors influencing filter retrieval rates,thereby providing evidence-based guidance for clinical decision-making.Methods:From January 2022 to December 2024,patients diagnosed with acute IVCT following VCF implantation were prospectively enrolled at the Department of Vascular Surgery,Beijing Jishuitan Hospital,Capital Medical University.Patients were randomly assigned to either the CDT group(n=46)or the PMT group(n=48)according to the interventional procedure used.The two groups were compared in terms of filter retrieval rates,thrombus clearance outcomes,operative time,thrombolytic drug dosage,and incidence of complications.Logistic regression analysis was used to identify factors associated with primary filter retrieval.Results:A total of 94 patients were enrolled,with 46 in the CDT group and 48 in the PMT group.Compared to the CDT group,the PMT group demonstrated a significantly higher primary filter retrieval rate(77.1%vs.43.5%),grade Ⅲ thrombus clearance rate(70.8%vs.37.0%),and better postoperative thrombus scores.Additionally,the PMT group required lower urokinase doses and shorter thrombolysis duration(all P<0.05).The overall filter retrieval rate and 3-month IVC patency were similar between groups,both exceeding 93%.Regarding safety,the CDT group had a higher incidence of catheter-related infections and medical adhesive-related skin injury,while vagal reflex symptoms were more frequent in the PMT group.Logistic regression analysis identified thrombus clearance rate as an independent factor significantly associated with primary filter retrieval in the PMT group(OR=190.773,P<0.05).Conclusion:Compared to CDT,AngioJet mechanical thrombectomy combined with manual aspiration achieves higher thrombus clearance and primary filter retrieval rates in the treatment of acute IVCT while also reducing thrombolysis duration and drug dosage.However,attention should be paid to the increased risk of vagal reflex symptoms.There was no significant difference between the two groups in secondary filter retrieval rates or long-term IVC patency.The choice of intervention should be based on the patient's condition,timing of filter retrieval,and individualized clinical considerations.
