Objective: To evaluate the classroom environmental management and CO 2 volume concentration in primary and secondary schools from Liaoning, Tianjin, and Shanghai, thereby providing a scientific basis for developing targeted strategies to improve classroom air quality. Methods: From December 16 to 26, 2024, by using stratified random cluster sampling method, the questionnaire survey was conducted in 72 primary and secondary schools (24 each of primary, junior high, and regular high schools) across Liaoning, Tianjin and Shanghai. Information on heating, ventilation and other classroom environmental management was collected. Additionally, 108 classrooms were selected for on site microclimate measurements, including temperature, humidity, wind speed and CO 2 volume concentration. Univariate analysis and multiple linear regression models were employed to explore related factors of classroom CO 2 volume concentration. Results: Among the three provinces/municipalities, 20.8% of schools regularly monitored the microclimate. The overall compliance rate for classroom CO 2 volume concentration was 17.6%. Multiple linear regression analysis showed that CO 2 volume concentration in regular and junior high school classrooms were higher than in primary school classrooms ( β=0.067, 0.046, 95%CI =0.036-0.099, 0.013-0.080); classrooms ventilated regularly in the morning and afternoon had higher CO 2 volume concentration than those ventilated during every break between classes ( β=0.043, 95%CI = 0.007- 0.080); both temperature ( β=0.010, 95%CI =0.004-0.016) and humidity ( β=0.003, 95%CI =0.002-0.004) were positively correlated with CO 2 volume concentration (all P <0.05). Conclusions Excessive CO 2 volume concentration in primary and secondary school classrooms is a prominent issue, and ventilation frequency is a key intervenable factor for controlling CO 2 levels. It is recommended to promote ventilation during every break between classes as a core management measure and to emphasize air quality supervision in regular high school classrooms.

This paper systematically elaborates on the key points of diagnosis and differential diagnosis of salivary gland tumors characterized by a substantial amount of extracellular mucus as a main or prominent feature, and clarifies the core differential features. The term "mucus-rich" specifically denotes that mucus is a major component of the tumor, rather than a focal or minor one. This phenomenon is associated with distinct histogenetic mechanisms: it may result from specific genetic mutations (e.g., AKT1 E17K in mucinous adenocarcinoma) that drive ductal epithelial differentiation into mucus-secreting cells, or from myoepithelial cells secreting glycosaminoglycans that form a myxoid stroma. Salivary gland tumors with abundant extracellular mucus include mucinous cystadenoma, sialadenoma papilliferum-like intraductal papillary tumors, mucinous myoepithelioma, pleomorphic adenoma with mucin-rich stroma, mucinous adenocarcinoma, low-grade mucoepidermoid carcinoma, mucin-rich salivary duct carcinoma and intestinal-type adenocarcinoma. The diagnosis of these tumors is complicated by the dual nature of extracellular mucus: while it is a defining feature of some entities, it can also obscure key diagnostic architectural features in others, leading to histological overlap and inconspicuous diagnostic areas. Given the frequent histological morphological overlap among these tumors, immunohistochemical findings and molecular characteristics have emerged as crucial differential diagnostic criteria. Core differential diagnostic points include the following: histologically, there must be meticulous identification of typical structures obscured by mucin (such as squamoid cells in mucoepidermoid carcinoma and apocrine features in salivary duct carcinoma); in immunohistochemical staining, CK20 is useful for distinguishing intestinal-type adenocarcinoma (positive) from mucinous adenocarcinoma (negative), while androgen receptor aids in differentiating salivary duct carcinoma (positive) from mucoepidermoid carcinoma (negative); and molecular testing plays a critical role in definitive diagnosis (e.g., the AKT1 E17K mutation for mucinous adenocarcinoma, MAML2 rearrangement for mucoepidermoid carcinoma, and MEF2C::SS18 fusion for microsecretory adenocarcinoma). This paper systematically summarizes the core pathological features and differential diagnostic points of mucin-rich salivary gland tumors, aiming to provide a practical reference for clinical pathological diagnosis.

Objective To provide a reference basis for the establishment of ideal animal models of leukemia,the characteristics of animal models of leukemia was summarized.Methods The themes of"leukemia"and"animal"were searched in CNKI databases.The relevant literature on animal experiments of leukemia from January 2010 to August 2024 were screened.And a database by Excel 2017 tables was established by organizing their research animal strains,modeling methods and testing indexes to analyze the characteristics of leukemia animal models.Results After comparative analysis,it was found that the animal strains in modeling were BALB/C-nude mice(40 times,29.86%)and NOD/SCID mice(32 times,23.88%),respectively.The modeling method was transplanted cells(127 times,93.38%),and the detection indexes were pathological tissues(80 times,14.84%),blood smears(75 times.13.91%),general condition(73 times,13.54%),bone marrow smear(73 times,13.54%),flow cytometry(55 times,10.20%),blood routine(50 times,9.28%).Conclusion The existing animal models of leukemia are complex and diverse.

Aim To explore the effect of age on myocardial remodeling after percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI)in patients with acute anterior myocardial infarction.Methods This study was a cross-sectional study analyzing clinical data of regular follow-up at 1,3,6 and 12 months after PCI for acute anterior myocardial infarction.According to the age of the patients,they were divided into a low age group(＜65 years old)and a high age group(≥65 years old).The differences in baseline data,biochemical indexes,coronary angiography,inflammatory factor levels,and cardiac ultrasound indexes between the two groups were analyzed,and the correlation analysis between age and inflammatory factors and the multivariate linear regression analysis of diastolic function were performed.Results A to-tal of 87 patients with acute anterior myocardial infarction were selected,aged(62±13)years,including 67 males(77.0％),43 in the low age group and 44 in the high age group.Compared with the low age group,the levels of inflam-matory factors such as C-reactive protein,interleukin-1β(IL-1β),interleukin-6(IL-6)and tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)increased in the high age group,while ultrasound indicators such as mitral valve annulus septal e',mitral valve flow velocity E/A,and mitral valve annulus sidewall e'decreased(P＜0.05).Older age was an independent risk factor for a decrease in mitral valve flow velocity E/A,mitral valve annulus sidewall e'and mitral valve annulus septal e'in patients with acute anterior myocardial infarction 6 months after PCI(P＜0.05).Conclusion Age is an independent risk factor for reduced diastolic function after PCI in acute anterior myocardial infarction,inflammatory factor such as IL-1β,IL-6 and TNF-α may play a role in the impaired diastolic function after PCI in age-related acute anterior myocardial infarction.

Aim To apply coronary angiography derived index of microcirculatory resistance(caIMR)to evaluate the effect of coronary microcirculation perfusion on myocardial remodeling after interventional therapy in patients with acute anterior ST segment elevation myocardial infarction(STEMI).Methods This was a cross-sectional study.The analysis was performed among the patients who were hospitalized for acute anterior STEMI in the First Department of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Dalian Medical University from January 2021 to July 2022 and received percutaneous coro-nary intervention(PCI)with regtelar follow-up visits.The patients were divided into low caIMR(L-caIMR)group,me-dium caIMR(M-caIMR)group and high caIMR(H-caIMR)group according to the results of caIMR.The results of ech-ocardiography at perioperative period,1 month,3 months,6 months and 1 year were analyzed and compared,including left atrial diameter(LAD),left ventricular end-diastolic diameter(LVEDD),interventricular septum thickness(IVST),mitral orifice flow velocity E/A,mitral annular septum e'and mitral annular wall e',etc.The difference of interleukin-1β(IL-1β),interleukin-6(IL-6),tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)and other inflammatory factors in peripheral blood of the three groups were also compared.Results A total of 75 patients diagnosed with acute anterior STEMI were recrui-ted,including 55 males.The L-caIMR group,M-caIMR group,and H-caIMR group had 26,26 and 23 cases,respec-tively.Compared with the L-caIMR group,the LAD and IVST in the M-caIMR group and the H-caIMR group exhibited an increasing tendency one month after PCI,and the increase in the H-caIMR group was more significant than that in the M-caIMR group(P＜0.05).The ejection fraction in the H-caIMR group was notably lower than that in the L-caIMR group and the M-caIMR group at 1 and 3 months after PCI(P＜0.05).Compared with the L-caIMR group,the mitral flow velocity E/A at 6 months after PCI,and the e'at the septal side and the lateral wall of the mitral annulus at 1,3,and 6 months after PCI were significantly reduced in the M-caIMR and H-caIMR groups(P＜0.05).Compared with the L-caIMR group,the levels of IL-1β,IL-6,and TNF-α showed an increasing trend in the M-caIMR group and the H-caIMR group,and the increase was greater in the H-caIMR group than that in the M-caIMR group(P＜0.05).Multivariate anal-ysis revealed that caIMR was a factor influencing the levels of IL-1 β and IL-6(P＜0.05).Conclusion CMD may be involved in the process of myocardial remodeling in patients with acute anterior STEMI after PCI,in which inflammation plays a role.

Objectives:To assess the effectiveness of transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) on electrocardiographic remodeling in patients with severe aortic stenosis (AS), and identify its influencing factors.Methods:A cohort study was conducted on patients with a confirmed diagnosis of severe AS who successfully underwent TAVR at the Second Affiliated Hospital of Dalian Medical University between June 2018 and March 2023. Data, including standard 15-lead electrocardiograms and echocardiograms, were collected before the operation, 1 week after the operation, and 3 months after the operation. The average degree of ST-segment depression in the lateral wall leads of the electrocardiograms, and the amplitude of the T-wave were measured and calculated. The changes of electrocardiograms indexes were observed, and Spearman correlation analysis was used to explore the correlation between each index of electrocardiograms and each index of echocardiography. Multiple linear regression analysis was used to determine the influencing factors of the improvement of electrocardiographic remodeling in patients with severe AS after TAVR.Results:A total of 33 patients with severe AS, aged (73±9) years, were included in the study. Among them there were 15 (45%) males. The degree of ST-segment depression, supra-aortic flow velocity, peak transaortic pressure, and mean transaortic pressure exhibited significant improvement at 1 week post-TAVR (all P<0.05). Similarly, significant improvements in T-wave hypoplasia or inversion, left ventricular mass, and left ventricular mass index were observed at 3 months post-TAVR (all P<0.05). The degree of ST-segment depression was found to be correlated with supra-aortic flow velocity, peak transaortic pressure, and mean transaortic pressure (all P<0.05). Additionally, a correlation was observed between T-wave amplitude and left ventricular mass, left ventricular mass index, left ventricular end-diastolic internal diameter, and left ventricular ejection fraction (all P<0.05). Multiple linear regression analysis revealed that supra-aortic flow velocity was an independent influencing factor of the level of ST-segment depression ( β=-0.156, P=0.007), while left ventricular mass index was identified as an independent influencing factor of T-wave amplitude ( β=-2.007, P=0.001). Conclusion:The improvement in electrocardiographic remodeling could be observed after TAVR in patients with severe AS, which may be due to enhanced cardiac perfusion and regression of left ventricular hypertrophy subsequent to aortic valve opening.

Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy of haploidentical high-dose in vitro non-T-cell-depleted peripheral blood hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (haplo-HDPSCT) in treating adult patients with Ph + acute lymphoblastic leukemia (Ph + ALL) . Method:This retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical efficacy of 25 adult patients with Ph + ALL who underwent haplo-HDPSCT from July 2011 to June 2022 at our hospital. Results:This study included 25 patients with a median age of 27 (16-61) years, consisting of 12 males and 13 females. CR1 and ≥CR2 before transplantation were found in 23 and 2 cases, positive and negative minimal residual lesions were observed in 8 and 17 cases, and myeloablative conditioning and reduced-intensity conditioning were reported in 21 and 4 cases, respectively. Hematopoietic function was restored in all 25 patients after stem cell infusion. Of the 25 patients who underwent transplantation, 16 developed acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD). The cumulative incidence rates of Ⅱ-Ⅳ and Ⅲ-Ⅳ aGVHD were (40.4±11.3) % and (4.8±4.6) %, respectively. Four patients experienced relapse after transplantation, the cumulative relapse rates at 1 and 2 years after transplantation were (4.0±3.9) % and (14.5±7.9) %, respectively. The 2-year overall survival rate after transplantation was (81.3±8.5) % and the disease-free survival rate was (77.1±9.1) %.Conclusion:This study reveals that the unique haplo-HDPSCT protocol achieves good clinical efficacy in Ph + ALL treatment.

OBJECTIVE: To assess the efficacy of Qingda Granule (QDG) in ameliorating hypertension-induced cardiac damage and investigate the underlying mechanisms involved. METHODS: Twenty spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRs) were used to develope a hypertension-induced cardiac damage model. Another 10 Wistar Kyoto (WKY) rats were used as normotension group. Rats were administrated intragastrically QDG [0.9 g/(kg•d)] or an equivalent volume of pure water for 8 weeks. Blood pressure, histopathological changes, cardiac function, levels of oxidative stress and inflammatory response markers were measured. Furthermore, to gain insights into the potential mechanisms underlying the protective effects of QDG against hypertension-induced cardiac injury, a network pharmacology study was conducted. Predicted results were validated by Western blot, radioimmunoassay immunohistochemistry and quantitative polymerase chain reaction, respectively. RESULTS: The administration of QDG resulted in a significant decrease in blood pressure levels in SHRs (P<0.01). Histological examinations, including hematoxylin-eosin staining and Masson trichrome staining revealed that QDG effectively attenuated hypertension-induced cardiac damage. Furthermore, echocardiography demonstrated that QDG improved hypertension-associated cardiac dysfunction. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and colorimetric method indicated that QDG significantly reduced oxidative stress and inflammatory response levels in both myocardial tissue and serum (P<0.01). CONCLUSIONS Both network pharmacology and experimental investigations confirmed that QDG exerted its beneficial effects in decreasing hypertension-induced cardiac damage by regulating the angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE)/angiotensin II (Ang II)/Ang II receptor type 1 axis and ACE/Ang II/Ang II receptor type 2 axis.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of Shexiang Tongxin Dropping Pill (STDP) in treating stable angina patients with phlegm-heat and blood-stasis syndrome by exercise duration and metabolic equivalents. METHODS: This multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial enrolled stable angina patients with phlegm-heat and blood-stasis syndrome from 22 hospitals. They were randomized 1:1 to STDP (35 mg/pill, 6 pills per day) or placebo for 56 days. The primary outcome was the exercise duration and metabolic equivalents (METs) assessed by the standard Bruce exercise treadmill test after 56 days of treatment. The secondary outcomes included the total angina symptom score, Chinese medicine (CM) symptom scores, Seattle Angina Questionnaire (SAQ) scores, changes in ST-T on electrocardiogram and adverse events (AEs). RESULTS: This trial enrolled 309 patients, including 155 and 154 in the STDP and placebo groups, respectively. STDP significantly prolonged exercise duration with an increase of 51.0 s, compared to a decrease of 12.0 s with placebo (change rate: -11.1% vs. 3.2%, P<0.01). The increase in METs was significantly greater in the STDP group than in the placebo group (change: -0.4 vs. 0.0, change rate: -5.0% vs. 0.0%, P<0.01). The improvement of total angina symptom scores (25.0% vs. 0.0%), CM symptom scores (38.7% vs. 11.8%), reduction of nitroglycerin consumption (100.0% vs. 11.3%), and all domains of SAQ, were significantly greater with STDP than placebo (all P<0.01). The changes in Q-T intervals at 28 and 56 days from baseline were similar between the two groups (both P>0.05). Twenty-five participants (16.3%) with STDP and 16 (10.5%) with placebo experienced AEs (P=0.131), with no serious AEs observed. CONCLUSION STDP could improve exercise tolerance in patients with stable angina and phlegm-heat and blood stasis syndrome, with a favorable safety profile. (Registration No. ChiCTR-IPR-15006020).
