ObjectiveTo systematically assess the public health governance capacity in Zhejiang Province, to conduct an in-depth analysis of its strengths and weaknesses, so as to provide scientific basis and strategic recommendations for further enhancement. MethodsA systematic collection of policy documents, public information reports, and research literature related to public health governance capacity in Zhejiang Province from 2002 to 2023 was conducted (encompassing a total of 1 263 policy documents, 138 pieces of information reports and 631 research articles). Based on the evaluation criteria suitable for public health systems previously developed by the research team, the basic status and magnitude of change in public health governance capacity in Zhejiang Province was evaluated. Additionally, normative gap analyses were employed to identify the strengths and weaknesses. ResultsZhejiang Province ranked 4th nationwide in terms of public health governance capacity with a score of 733.4 points (1 000.0-point maximum). The province has effectively implemented the principle of health first (scoring 698.5 points in the assessment of health-first strategy implementation) and attached sufficient importance to health-related goals (scoring 658.2 points in the scientific rationality of goal setting). However, the implementation of inter-departmental coordination and incentive mechanisms only scored 178.7 points, the feasibility of management and monitoring mechanisms scored even lower at only 144.0 points, and the coverage of incentive mechanisms scored 286.0 points. ConclusionZhejiang Province has effectively implemented its health first strategy and attached great importance to health targets, but still needs to strengthen cross-departmental coordination mechanisms and health-oriented incentives.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the clinical efficacy and safety of Zhengxintai granules as in the treatment of microvascular angina （MVA） following percutaneous coronary intervention （PCI） in patients with acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction （STEMI） and qi deficiency and blood stasis syndrome. METHODS Patients with STEMI and qi deficiency and blood stasis syndrome who underwent PCI and developed MVA and were admitted to the Jinan Fourth People’s Hospital （Jinan Cardiovascular Hospital） from March 2022 to March 2025 were selected， they were randomly divided into the control group and the observation group according to a random number table， with 76 cases in each group. Patients in the control group received conventional Western medicine treatment combined with a placebo， while patients in the observation group received Zhengxintai granules （5 mg per dose， three times daily， for 8 weeks） in addition to conventional Western medicine treatment. The clinical efficacy [including the total effective rate of traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） syndrome improvement and the total effective rates of Western clinical efficacy] was compared between the two groups. The following indicators were detected before and after treatment： TCM syndrome scores， angina pectoris episodes [daily attack frequency， duration per attack， Visual Analogue Scale （VAS） score]， cardiac function indicators [lactate dehydrogenase （LDH）， N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide （NT-proBNP）， left ventricular end-diastolic dimension （LVEDD）， left ventricular end-systolic dimension （LVESD）， left ventricular ejection fraction （LVEF）， cardiac output （CO）， fractional shortening （FS）]， coagulation function indicators [thrombin time （TT）， prothrombin time （PT）， fibrinogen （FIB）]， fibrinolytic marker （D-dimer）， vascular endothelial function indicators [vascular endothelial growth factor （VEGF）， nitric oxide （NO）， endothelin-1 （ET-1）] and myocardial microcirculation hemodynamic indicators [end-diastolic velocity （EDV）， peak systolic velocity （PSV）， resistance index （RI）， pulsatility index （PI）]. The quality of life [Seattle Angina Questionnaire （SAQ） score] and the incidence of adverse reactions were also compared between the two groups. RESULTS There was no patient dropout during the entire course of the study. The total effective rates of improvement in TCM syndromes and the total effective rates of Western clinical efficacy in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group （93.42% vs. 82.89%， 94.74% vs. 84.21%， P＜0.05）. Before the treatment， the comparison of each examination indicator between the two groups showed no statistically significant differences （P＞0.05）. Compared with before treatment， the TCM syndrome scores， the number of daily angina pectoris attacks and the duration of each attack， the VAS scores， LDH， NT-proBNP， FIB， D-dimer， ET-1 levels， LVEDD， LVESD， RI and PI after treatment in both groups were significantly reduced， shortened or decreased （P＜0.05）； VEGF and NO levels， LVEF， CO， FS， TT， PT， EDV， PSV， and the standard scores of five dimensions including angina pectoris stability， as well as the total scores of SAQ， all significantly increased or prolonged （P＜0.05）. Furthermore， the improvements in the aforementioned indicators （except for LVEF） in the observation group were significantly greater than those in the control group （P＜0.05）. There was no statistically significant difference in the total incidence of adverse reactions between the two groups （P＞0.05）. CONCLUSIONS Zhengxintai granules， when used as an adjunct to conventional Western medicine， can significantly alleviate the related symptoms of MVA in STEMI patients with qi deficiency and blood stasis syndrome after PCI， repair damaged cardiac function， restore the balance of the coagulation-fibrinolysis system， improve vascular endothelial function and myocardial microcirculation perfusion， and significantly enhance the quality of life of patients

Objective: To investigate the level of occupational health literacy (OHL) and its influencing factors among key populations of small and micro enterprises in Xinchang County, Zhejiang Province, so as to provide basis for developing targeted occupational health management measures. Methods: In October 2024, key populations of small and micro enterprises in Xinchang County were selected as survey subjects by two-stage random sampling method. Demographic information, work-related information, and OHL information were collected through the National Key Population Occupational Health Literacy Monitoring Survey Individual Questionnaire, and the OHL level was analyzed. Multivariable logistic regression model was used to analyze the influencing factors for the level of OHL. Results: A total of 1 500 questionnaires were distributed, and 1 397 valid ones were collected, with a response rate of 93.13%. Among the respondents, 865 (61.92%) were male and 532 (38.08%) were female, the mean age of the participants was (36.54±12.77) years. A total of 671 participants were classified as having OHL, with an overall OHL level of 48.03%. The literacy levels of the four dimensions: basic knowledge of occupational health protection, healthy work styles and behaviors, occupational health legal knowledge, and basic skills of occupational health protection were 61.35%, 59.63%, 49.61%, and 21.26%, respectively. Multivariable logistic regression analysis revealed that education level of high school/vocational high school/technical secondary school or above (high school/vocational high school/technical secondary school, OR=2.080, 95%CI: 1.483-2.917; junior college, OR=2.207, 95%CI: 1.567-3.109; bachelor degree or above, OR=2.045, 95%CI: 1.389-3.012), metal products industry (OR=1.412, 95%CI: 1.061-1.880), private enterprises (OR=2.294, 95%CI: 1.636-3.215), working years of 2-<6 years (OR=1.416, 95%CI: 1.029-1.949), weekly working hours of >40-48 h (OR=1.646, 95%CI: 1.241-2.184) or >54 h (OR=1.498, 95%CI: 1.059-2.121) were more likely to have higher OHL levels. Conclusions The overall OHL level among key populations of small and micro enterprises in Xinchang County is relatively low, with basic skills of occupational health protection being the vulnerable dimension. Educational level, enterprise industry, enterprise type, working years, and weekly working hours were identified as influencing factors of OHL level.

Objective: To investigate the association between habitual reading/writing postures and the co-occurrence of common health conditions (overweight/obesity, visual impairment, hypertension, and scoliosis) and comorbidities among children and adolescents, in order to provide data support for the joint prevention of common diseases and comorbidities among children and adolescents. Methods: From September 2021 to June 2022, a multi-stage cluster random sampling method was used to select a total of 4 577 children and adolescents from 16 primary and secondary schools in Ningxia: Jinfeng District of Yinchuan City, Shapotou District of Zhongwei City, Yanchi County of Wuzhong City, and Pingluo County of Shizuishan City. A weighted complex sampling design was used to investigate the association of habitual reading and writing postures with common comorbidities in children and adolescents. Results: The prevalence rates of common diseases among children and adolescents in Ningxia were as follows: overweight/obesity was 22.87%, visual impairment was 62.52%, scoliosis was 2.30%, and hypertension was 1.30%. The prevalence of multimorbidity (co-occurrence of ≥2 conditions) among Ningxia children and adolescents was 15.95%. Multivariate unconditional Logistic regression analysis showed that frequent/always collapsing waist and sitting forward with head lowered increased the risk of common comorbidities in children and adolescents ( OR =1.90, P <0.05). Compared with the corresponding reference group, male children and adolescents aged 9 to 12 years and boys had relatively lower risks of overweight/obesity ( OR =0.71, 0.70); the risk of poor vision among children and adolescents aged 9 to 12 years, male, and urban was relatively low ( OR =0.59, 0.60, 0.73)( P < 0.05 ). Children and adolescents who often/always sat leaning to the left or right were at higher risk of poor vision ( OR =1.78); urban children and adolescents had a higher risk of developing scoliosis ( OR =3.71); children and adolescents aged 9 to 12 had a relatively low risk of developing hypertension ( OR =0.09), and children and adolescents who often/always bent their backs and sat forward on their knees had a higher risk of hypertension ( OR =5.03)( P <0.05). Conclusions Ningxia has a high incidence of common diseases and multiple diseases among children and adolescents, frequent or always collapsing waist and sitting forward with head lowered is associated with common comorbidities in children and adolescents in Ningxia. Proper postural measures for reading and writing should be carried out as soon as possible to encourage children and adolescents to develop good reading and writing habits for effectively preventing and controlling the occurrence of common diseases.

Objective To investigate the ameliorative effect of deferoxamine(DFO)on cognitive impairment in a rat model of type 1 diabetes mellitus(T1DM)and to elucidate the molecular mechanisms underlying cerebral iron overload in T1DM rats.Methods Thirty-six healthy male SD rats(weighing 180～250 g)were randomly assigned into a blank control group(Ctrl),a T1DM model group and a DFO group,with 12 rats in each group.A single dose of 65 mg/kg streptozotocin(STZ)was intraperitoneally injected to the rats to establish a T1DM model,and those with fasting blood glucose≥16.7 mmol/L at 3 d later were designated as the T1DM group.Intracerebroventricular administration of DFO(5 μg/kg·d)was given to the DFO group for 28 consecutive days since 21 d after STZ injection.Morris water maze test was carried out to assess the spatial learning and memory abilities.Nissl staining and immunofluorescence assay were applied to observe neuronal morphology and number in the hippocampus and cortex.The iron content in the hippocampus was measured with inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry(ICP-MS).The expression levels of iron metabolism related proteins were detected with Western blotting.Results In the T1DM group,significant declines in learning and memory abilities(P<0.01)and impaired neuronal morphology and reduced neuronal counts in the hippocampal CA1 region(P<0.01),CA3 region(P<0.01),and cortex(P<0.05)were observed when compared with those in the Ctrl group.ICP-MS analysis showed a marked increase in the hippocampal iron content in the T1DM group(P<0.01).Western blot results demonstrated that T1DM rats exhibited obviously up-regulated expression of iron storage proteins FTH and FTL in both the hippocampus(P<0.01,P<0.05)and the cortex(P<0.05,P<0.01),enhanced expression of iron import protein DMT1 in both the hippocampus and the cortex(P<0.05),while decreased expression of iron export protein FPN1 in the hippocampus(P<0.01)and the cortex(P<0.05).DFO treatment significantly ameliorated all above abnormalities.Conclusion The declines in learning and memory in T1DM rats are closely associated with neuronal damage induced by cerebral iron overload.Iron import protein DMT1 and export protein FPN1 jointly regulate cerebral iron content in T1DM rats.DFO reduces brain iron levels and mitigates iron overload-mediated neuronal injury by modulating the expression of DMT1 and FPN1.

Psoriasis is an incurable chronic inflammatory disease that requires new interventions. Here, we found that fibroblasts exacerbate psoriasis progression by promoting macrophage recruitment via CCL2 secretion by single-cell multi-omics analysis. The natural small molecule celastrol was screened to interfere with the secretion of CCL2 by fibroblasts and improve the psoriasis-like symptoms in both murine and cynomolgus monkey models. Mechanistically, celastrol directly bound to the low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 1 (LRP1) β-chain and abolished its binding to the transcription factor c-Jun in the nucleus, which in turn inhibited CCL2 production by skin fibroblasts, blocked fibroblast-macrophage crosstalk, and ameliorated psoriasis progression. Notably, fibroblast-specific LRP1 knockout mice exhibited a significant reduction in psoriasis like inflammation. Taken together, from clinical samples and combined with various mouse models, we revealed the pathogenesis of psoriasis from the perspective of fibroblast-macrophage crosstalk, and provided a foundation for LRP1 as a novel potential target for psoriasis treatment.

Enamel demineralization, the formation of white spot lesions, is a common issue in clinical orthodontic treatment. The appearance of white spot lesions not only affects the texture and health of dental hard tissues but also impacts the health and aesthetics of teeth after orthodontic treatment. The prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of white spot lesions that occur throughout the orthodontic treatment process involve multiple dental specialties. This expert consensus will focus on providing guiding opinions on the management and prevention of white spot lesions during orthodontic treatment, advocating for proactive prevention, early detection, timely treatment, scientific follow-up, and multidisciplinary management of white spot lesions throughout the orthodontic process, thereby maintaining the dental health of patients during orthodontic treatment.
