Objective This study reports on the obligatory parasitism of water mites Arrenurus sp. on Anopheles messeae at the Manzhouli Port, Inner Mongolia, China. Methods Duing July 2024, a survey on the mosquito diversity was conducted at the Manzhouli Port. Captured mosquitoes and their ectoparasites were identified to species level. Results A total of 1840 adult mosquitoes were collected, representing species from three genera: Culex(Cx. modestus, Cx. pipiens pallens), Aedes(Ae. dorsalis, Ae. flavidorsalis, Ae. flavescens), and Anopheles (An. messeae). Among all the mosqutioes specimens,3 out of 150 captured An. messeae were found to carry ectoparasitic mites, with number of 2,4,27 mites separately. Morphological and molecular identification reached the same result as water mites(Hydrachnidiae, Hydracrina). COI gene sequence showed 94% similarity with the closest species Arrenurus truncatellus. Conlusions Literature review suggests water mites are host-specific parasitism of mosquito species and herein with the first record of Arrenurus sp. parasiting on An. Messeae in the most high-latitude region globally.

Objective: To investigate the environmental contamination of norovirus in nurseries and primary/secondary schools, so as to provide a scientific basis for effective prevention and control measures. Methods: A total of 483 external environmental samples were collected from 34 cluster outbreaks of norovirus gastroenteritis in kindergartens and primary/secondary schools in Linhai City from 2021 to 2024. Pathogen detection was conducted using a rapid nucleic acid extraction kit and realtime fluorescence RT-PCR, and the results were analyzed using the χ2 test or Fishers exact test. Results: Among the collected external environmental samples, the total positive rate of surface contamination was 13.66%. The positive rates in kindergartens and primary/secondary schools were 12.20% and 15.82%, respectively. In kindergartens, the five surfaces with the highest detection rates were desks/chairs (23.33%), toilet stool troughs (20.69%), urinal troughs (12.00%), washbasins/sinks (11.11%), and toilet mops (9.38%). In primary/secondary schools, the top five were toilet stool troughs (38.30%), urinal troughs (23.53%), toilet door handles (13.04%), toilet mops (12.50%), and drinking cups (11.11%). The difference in positive detection rates among different external environments in primary/secondary schools was statistically significant (Fishers exact probability test, P<0.01). The positive detection rate in sanitary toilets was higher than that in classroom environments (χ2=17.38), while the positive detection rate in classroom environments of kindergartens was higher than that in primary/secondary schools (χ2=5.42)(P<0.05). Conclusions Norovirus exhibits a high contamination rate in nurseries and schools, particularly in restroom areas. Strengthening sanitation and disinfection in highrisk environments, and improving hygiene awareness among children and staff, are essential for the effective prevent and control of norovirus.

Objective:To investigate the changes of QRS complex in ECG in patients with acute ST-segment eleva-tion myocardial infarction(STEMI)with different degree of myocardial ischemia and its predictive value for severe arrhythmias(SA).Methods:A total of 122 STEMI patients treated in Yulin Xingyuan Hospital between January 2020 and January 2021 were selected and divided into grade Ⅱ ischemia group(n=49)and grade Ⅲ ischemia group(n=73)according to morphology of QRS complex at admission.ST segment change in ECG at admission and 2h af-ter intravenous thrombolysis and incidence of SA during hospitalization were compared between two groups.Multi-variate Logistic regression was used to analyze influencing factors for SA in STEMI patients.Results:Compared with grade Ⅱ ischemia group,patients in grade Ⅲ ischemia group had significant higher amplitude of ST segment el-evation(∑ST)at admission[0.87(0.62,1.10)mV vs.0.42(0.29,0.57)mV],∑ST on 2h after intravenous thrombolysis[0.47(0.34,0.61)mV vs.0.12(0.09,0.15)mV]and incidence rate of SA during hospitaliza-tion(36.73％vs.9.59％)(P＜0.001 all),and significant lower proportion of ST segment resolution ≥50％on 2h after intravenous thrombolysis(59.18％vs.84.93％)(P＜0.001).Multivariate Logistic regression analysis indica-ted that onset-to-thrombolysis time,∑ST at admission,∑ST on 2h after intravenous thrombolysis and myocardi-al ischemia grade Ⅲ were independent risk factors for SA in STEMI patients(OR=1.240～3.236,P＜0.05 or＜0.01),while ST segment resolution ≥ 50％on 2h after intravenous thrombolysis was its independent protective fac-tor(OR=0.480,P=0.030).Conclusion:Grade Ⅲ myocardial ischemia is an independent risk factor for SA in STEMI patients,and myocardial ischemia may be a predictor for SA in STEMI patients.

Objective:Explore the effect of modified position on correction of breech presentation and the ma-ternal and infant outcomes in primiparas at 30-34 weeks of gestation in the midwifery clinic.Methods:From Jan-uary to December2024,274 primiparas at30-34 weeks of gestation who visited the midwifery clinic of The Gener-al Hospital of Northern Theater Command were selected.They were randomly divided into two groups according to the coin-tossing method.Through the inclusion exclusion,and elimination criteria,the selected pregnant women were finally categorized into the knee-chest position group(control group,n=126)and the modified position group(observation group,n=140).The success rate of breech presentation correction,delivery mode,duration of labor,1-minute and 5-minute Apgar scores of vaginally delivered infants,umbilical artery blood gas,postpartum re-covery,and postpartum depression incidence were compared between the two groups.Results:The success rate of breech presentation correction in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group(77.9%vs 58.7%,P<0.05).After breech presentation correction,the vaginal delivery rate was higher in the ob-servation group than in the control group(80.7%vs 66.2%,P<0.05).Among women who achieved vaginal de-livery,the intrapartum complication rate was significantly lower in the observation group than in the control group(22.7%vs.46.9%,P<0.05).The duration of the first stage of labor(557.7±195.5 min vs.629.6±208.2 min)and the second stage of labor(67.7±11.4 min vs.79.6±10.3 min)was significantly shorter in the observation group than in the control group(P<0.05).The pH of umbilical artery blood gas of newborns in the observation group delivered vaginally was significantly higher than that in the control group(7.367±0.028 vs.7.322±0.027,P<0.05).There were no statistically significant differences in the1-minute and5-minute Apgar scores of vaginally delivered infants,base excess,and lactate between the two groups(P>0.05).The initial time of lactation(21.7±4.4 h vs.23.5±4.1 h),time to ambulation(8.2±1.2 d vs.9.2±1.4 d),time for lochia to subside(29.6±4.8 d vs.34.1±4.8 d),and postpartum hemorrhage(298.1±56.1 ml vs.362.9±42.6 ml)in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group(P<0.05).There were no statistically significant differ-ences in the depression scores(EPDS)at 1 week and 6 weeks postpartum between the two groups of women with vaginal delivery(P>0.05).Conclusions:The modified position in the midwifery clinic significantly improves the success rate of breech presentation correction for primiparas at 30-34 weeks of gestation,good maternal and infant outcomes,and could be widely applied in clinical practice.

Rare diseases have become an issue of public health concern globally. In China, two rare diseases lists have been released officially in 2018 and 2023, respectively. However, due to its importance in research, clinical management , therapeutic drug development and health security, we still need a clear definition of rare diseases in China. Considering the current actual condition of our country and our population size, we would suggest a prevalence of less than 1/10 000 to define a rare disease in China.

Objective To investigate the feasibility and safety of transoral transgastric natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery(TG-NOTES)cholecystectomy in miniature pigs.Methods A total of 11 miniature pigs were selected as the experimental subjects and underwent TG-NOTES cholecystectomy.These pigs were divided into the Group A and Group B according to the surgical procedures.Among them,7 miniature pigs in the Group A underwent endoscopic cholecystectomy without dissecting the gallbladder triangle,while 4 miniature pigs in the Group B underwent endoscopic cholecystectomy after dissecting the gallbladder triangle.The success rate of surgery,the time of each stage of surgery,the incidence of complications,the success rate of cholecystectomy and the survival rate of miniature pigs in the two groups were counted.One miniature pig in the Group A and 4 miniature pigs in the Group B were selected for survival experiments.After surviving for 1 week,they were killed and dissected to observe the healing of incision and incidence of complications.Results The surgical survival rate of experimental animals was 100%,and the success rate of cholecystectomy was 100%.There was no significant difference in the surgical time,time of cut the stomach into the abdomen,time of gallbladder exploration or time of gallbladder removal of miniature pigs between the two groups(P>0.05).The time of ligating gallbladder artery of miniature pigs in the Group B was longer than that in the Group A,and the time of isdating gallbladder was shorter than that in the Group A,with statistically significant differences(P<0.05).There was no significant difference in the average number of complications of miniature pigs between the two groups(P>0.05).The dissection of animals after survival experiments revealed that the incisions healed well without serious complications.Conclusion This study successfully establishes the surgical model of TG-NOTES cholecystectomy,and confirms the safety and feasibility of TG-NOTES cholecystectomy.
