Objective To address the safety challenges arising from the rapid development of nuclear energy and technology, assess the current status of health emergency response capabilities in nuclear radiation emergencies, and promote capacity enhancement. Methods A preliminary evaluation system for health emergency response capability in nuclear radiation emergencies was developed based on a literature review. Two rounds of Delphi expert consultation (n = 20) were conducted, and the analytic hierarchy process was employed to establish judgment matrices for assigning indicator weights. Results The finalized system included six primary indicators (radiation protection capability, triage capability, decontamination and evacuation capability, medical treatment capability, radiation detection capability, and radiation dose estimation capability), along with 29 secondary indicators, such as capability for setting up emergency zones, capability for protecting personnel from internal and external contamination, on-site first aid capability, and personal dose monitoring capability. The expert response rate was 0.95, and the expert authority coefficient reached 0.80. The Kendall’s coefficient of concordance was W = 0.288 (P<0.01) for the first round of expert consultation and W = 0.308 (P<0.01) for the second round. Both rounds demonstrated high agreement among experts, and the consultation questionnaires passed reliability and validity tests. Conclusion By integrating qualitative analysis and quantitative calculation, this study developed a scientifically sound and operationally feasible evaluation system. This system will help identify gaps in health emergency response capabilities and provide scientific guidance and a decision-making basis for optimizing emergency plans and improving the level of health emergency response in nuclear radiation emergencies.

Objective Emergency response to public health emergencies constitutes a vital component of the modernization of national governance systems and capacities, directly impacting national security, social stability, and public health. This study aims to analyze the key issues and research hotspots in the field of emergency response to public health emergencies, providing theoretical foundations and practical guidance for formulating scientific and effective emergency strategies and policies. Ultimately, it seeks to enhance the nation’s capability to respond to public health emergencies and safeguard public health. Methods Using core journals indexed in the China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) database as the data source, 1094 journal articles in the field of emergency response to public health emergencies in China from 2003 to September 2024 were selected as the research sample. Citespace visualization software was employed to organize and analyze the research process in the field of emergency response to public health emergencies. Results The current research in this field predominantly involves small-scale cooperation, and the research process can be divided into four stages. The research in the emerging stage mainly focuses on the themes of emergency mechanism and emergency management, the development stage mainly centers on the themes of emergency capacity improvement and system exploration, the outbreak stage emphasizes the themes of COVID-19 and epidemic prevention and control, and the sustainable development stage highlights collaborative governance and informatization. Conclusion The COVID-19 pandemic has accelerated the development of research in this field. Currently, the field shows a continuous growth, with an increasing volume of publications. The focus of current research has shifted towards collaborative governance and the study of assessment tools, aiming to enhance the efficiency and effectiveness in responding to public health emergencies. Moreover, the field is advancing toward more systematic and comprehensive research. However, there is still a need to strengthen scientific communication and collaboration.

Objective To evaluate the effect of kojic acid( KA) on the immune system of mice after exposure to gam-ma-irradiation.Methods Twenty male C57BL/6 mice were divided into normal group, irradiation group, low/high doses of KA pretreated groups.Mice in normal group did not receive any treatment,while mice in other groups were sc injected with a single dose of sterile distilled water or KA(75 and 300 mg/kg, respectively) 27 h prior to a sublethal dose(4 Gy, 138.54 and 140.30 cGy/min, respectively) of whole body gamma-irradiation.The injected volume was calculated by 0.2 ml/20 g.Forty mice were sacrificed at day 2 and day 8 post-irradiation, respectively.The splenic lymphocyte transformation and spleen and thymus indexes were determined.Histopathological sections were produced, and the morphological changes were also observed.Results The splenic lymphocyte transformation capacity and spleen and thymus indexes of mice pre-treated with 300 mg/kg elatve mass KA were increased significantly ( P<0.01) compared with the irradiation group.The morphological changes in the spleen and thymus of mice in 300 mg/kg KA pretreated group were better than in the irradia-tion group.The above parameters of mice in irradiation group were injured severely in comparison with the normal group. Conclusion Acute radiation can damage the immune system of mice obviously.KA can enhance the transformation capaci-ty of lymphocytes and has marked protective effect on the immune system of mice after irradiation.

Objective To investigate the effect of plasma exchange (PE) in the treatment of chronic severe hepatitis. Methods 70 cases with chronic severe hepatitis were divided randomly into two groups:treatment group and control group. The treatment group combined with PE based on combined therapy of internal medicine, control group was only performed combined therapy of internal medicine. The therapeutic efficient rate was analyzed by con-trast after one month. Results The level of TBil,ALT,CHO,CHE,PTA,BUN and Cr of patients in treatment group improved more obviously than those in control group(P <0.05). The total effective rate was 62.86% in treatment group and was 31.43% in control group,and there were significant differences in two groups(P <0.05). The death rate was 11.42% in treatment group and was 31.42% in control group,there were significant differences in two groups (P < 0.05). Conclusion PE combined with therapy of internal medicine can obviously improve therapeutic efficient rate of chronic severe hepatitis,which is an safe and effective method.
