Objective To understand mosquito density, species composition, and seasonal variations around the Beijing Capital International Airport(BCIA)and provide scientific evidence for mosquito-borne disease prevention and control. Methods Meteorological data were collected from 2016 to 2022, and mosquito density was monitored at seven surveillance sites around the BCIA from May to October each year using CO2-baited mosquito traps to analyze the relationship between mosquito density and meteorological factors. Results In total,68 518 female mosquitoes were captured, with a mosquito density of 10.20 per light · hour. The dominant species was Culex pipiens pallens(73.90%), followed by Aedes albopictus(9.71%)and Ae. vexans(9.29%);the mosquito density was highest in 2016(14.8 per light·hour)and lowest in 2022(4.46 per light·hour). Significant statistical differences were observed in mosquito density among different species(F=18.118, P<0.05). The density of Cx. pipiens pallens and other mosquito species showed a mutually exclusive trend; the peak of mosquito density varied based on years and habitats, with significant statistical differences in mosquito density among different habitats(F=8.504, P<0.05). The highest mosquito density was observed near the Wenyu River(21.50 per light·hour), whereas the lowest was recorded at the BCIA construction site(2.44 per light· hour). The monthly average temperature(r=0.595), monthly average highest temperature(r=0.575), and monthly average lowest temperature(r=0.624)showed moderate positive correlations, whereas the monthly average air pressure(r=-0.484)showed a moderate negative correlation. The monthly average minimum temperature was included in the regression model(F=25.575, P<0.000), and the equation Y=1.029X4-8.181 was used. The monthly average air pressure 2 months prior(b=-2.418, β=-1.619, P<0.05)and the monthly average relative humidity(b=-0.739, β=-1.201, P<0.05)significantly negatively predicted the mosquito density. Notably, the regression equation used was y=2526.170+(-2.418)X9+(-0.739)X13. The exposure-response analysis revealed that the density of mosquitoes was not linearly related to the average monthly air pressure, rainfall, and duration of sunshine. Conclusions The dominant mosquito species around the BCIA was Cx. pipiens pallens, Ae. albopictus, and Ae. vexans. During the control of Cx. pipiens pallens, the impact on other mosquito species must also be considered. Environmental management, breeding sites, and scientific use of pesticides should be prioritized based on the activity periods of mosquitoes. Further studies on mosquitoes and meteorological factors should be conducted to provide references and novel avenues for mosquito control.

Objective To explore the epidemiological characteristics of gouty arthritis in Northwest China from 2023 to 2025, and to formulate preventive intervention measures. Methods By retrospectively analyzing the case data of medical institutions in Northwest China from January 2023 to June 2025 (a total of 8 139 cases), the incidence trend and population distribution characteristics of gouty arthritis in this area were analyzed. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed to identify risk factors. Results From 2023 to 2025, the prevalence rate of gouty arthritis in adult residents in Northwest China was 3.74% (304/8 139). Among the sites affected by gouty arthritis, the metatarsophalangeal joint accounted for the highest proportion (P<0.05). From the perspective of age distribution, the prevalence rate was the highest in 40-59 years old group (5.90%), followed by 66-80 years old group (4.21%) and >80 years old group (2.75%). The incidence rate in 40-65 years old group was higher than that in the other age groups (P<0.05). High blood uric acid and creatinine, alcohol drinking, obesity, high purine diet, concurrent chronic kidney disease and metabolic syndrome were risk factors affecting gouty arthritis in Northwest China (P<0.05). Conclusion High blood uric acid level, high creatinine level, alcohol drinking, obesity, high purine diet, concurrent chronic kidney disease and metabolic syndrome are risk factors influencing gouty arthritis in Northwest China. Based on the above factors, this study proposes comprehensive prevention strategies from the individual, community and public health levels to provide a scientific basis for reducing the incidence rate of gouty arthritis.

Neuroscience,a cutting-edge field in interdisciplinary research,consistently draws considerable research interest,of which quantitatively probing the neurochemical dynamics is essential for brain science research.In vivoelectrochemical analysis,featuring with high sensitivity,high spatiotemporal resolution,free from transfection,and designable electrode/solution interfaces,provides important tools for in vivo neurochemicals sensing.Fast scan cyclic voltammetry combined with microelectrodes can not only enable precise detection of dopamine but also is compatible with existing neurosurgical equipment.This offers new opportunities for the clinical application of in vivo electrochemical analysis and paves new avenues for the diagnosis and treatment of neurological diseases.This review summarized recent progress of in vivo electrochemical techniques for brain neurochemistry and addressed key clinical challenges and their potential solutions.

Compared to traditional machine learning algorithms,which often suffer from low feature extraction efficiency,insufficient nonlinear pattern recognition capabilities and slow training speeds,the broad learning system(BLS)enhances the learning ability and efficiency by horizontally expanding the network structure.BLS offers advantages such as a simple structure,fast training speed,and strong generalization capabilities.While BLS has demonstrated potential in various fields,but its application in identification of complex samples has not been fully explored.This research investigated the feasibility of using BLS algorithm for identification of complex samples based on physicochemical indicators.Using the iris,wine,and breast cancer datasets,the length and width of petals and sepals of iris flowers,the physicochemical properties of wine,and the nuclear characteristics of breast cancer cells were used as input variables to establish BLS models for identifying iris species,wine varieties,and benign versus malignant nucleus.The model performance was evaluated by confusion matrices,accuracy,and runtime.Compared with partial least squares-discriminant analysis(PLS-DA),soft independent modeling of class analogies(SIMCA),and artificial neural networks(ANN),the results indicated that BLS demonstrated significant advantages in computational efficiency and recognition accuracy.Thus,BLS was an efficient and reliable method for identification of complex samples.

The traditional teaching model centered on courses has disadvantages such as interdisciplinary barriers, repetitive learning of content, and students being unable to enter clinical practice early. The Human Body Overview I is a core course at the basic stage under the integrated curriculum system centered on "organ-systems" at Chongqing Medical University. The course deeply integrates interdisciplinary resources and reconstructs the contents of systematic anatomy, embryology, and physiology under the traditional teaching model. The "Three in One" curriculum ideology and politics are implemented to assist students in their comprehensive development. By strengthening the cultivation of clinical application abilities and empowering with virtual simulation technology, the teaching effectiveness and quality have been improved. The teaching practice of the Human Body Overview I suggests that the teaching reform of integrated curriculum at the basic stage has broken interdisciplinary barriers, avoided repetitive learning of contents, and promoted the cultivation of students' interdisciplinary integration ability and clinical application ability. It can provide a reference for the teaching reform of integrated curriculum for other colleges.

Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) is a well-accepted therapy for atopic dermatitis (AD). However, there are currently no evidence-based guidelines integrating TCM and Western medicine for the treatment of AD, limiting the clinical application of such combined approaches. Therefore, the China Association of Chinese Medicine initiated the development of the current guideline, focusing on key issues related to the use of TCM in the treatment of AD. This guideline was developed in accordance with the principles of the guideline formulation manual published by the World Health Organization. A comprehensive review of the literature on the combined use of TCM and Western medicine to treat AD was conducted. The findings were extensively discussed by experts in dermatology and pharmacy with expertise in both TCM and Western medicine. This guideline comprises 23 recommendations across seven major areas, including TCM syndrome differentiation and classification of AD, principles and application scenarios of TCM combined with Western medicine for treating AD, outcome indicators for evaluating clinical efficacy of AD treatment, integration of TCM pattern classification and Western medicine across disease stages, daily management of AD, the use of internal TCM therapies and proprietary Chinese medicines, and TCM external treatments.

BACKGROUND:In recent years,with the deepening of cell death research,necroptosis has gradually become a hot and difficult topic in academic research.Its various signaling pathways and proteins play an important role in the occurrence and development of periodontitis. People try to delay the process of periodontal tissue inflammation by preventing the occurrence of necroptosis. OBJECTIVE:To provide a review on the molecular mechanism of necroptosis and its correlation with periodontitis in the hope of providing new ideas and directions for the prevention,diagnosis,treatment and evaluation of periodontitis. METHODS:The first author searched PubMed,CNKI,and other databases in October 2023 for relevant literature published up to April 2024 with the search terms of "necroptosis,programmed cell death,periodontitis,periodontal,immunity,inflammation,receptor interacting protein kinase 1,receptor interacting protein kinase 3,mixed lineage kinase domain-like" in Chinese and "necroptosis,programmed cell death,periodontitis,periodontal,immunity,inflammation,RIP1,RIP3,MLKL" in English,respectively. The titles and abstracts of each document were read for preliminary screening,and 56 documents were finally selected for generalization and analysis. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1) The main pathogenesis of periodontitis is that periodontal pathogenic bacteria stimulate the organism,leading to changes in the periodontal microenvironment,breaking the original immune balance and releasing a variety of inflammatory factors,triggering an inflammatory response resulting in destruction of periodontal tissues. Necroptosis can modulate the immuno-inflammation in periodontal tissues,thus affecting the development of periodontitis. (2) The occurrence of necroptosis is related to a variety of proteins,signaling pathways,and signaling molecules. Animal experiments have confirmed that the expression of phosphorylated mixed lineage kinase domain-like protein (pMLKL) is related to the degree of inflammation,and RIP3 and pMLKL are highly expressed in the periodontal tissues of mice suffering from periodontitis. Blocking the RIP3/MLKL pathway is conducive to the reduction of inflammation in periodontal tissues and the control of periodontitis progression. (3) To explore whether pMLKL can be used as a diagnostic indicator of periodontitis is of great value in the prevention,diagnosis and treatment of periodontitis.

Objective:To investigate and analyze the service needs of family members of Neurosurgical Intensive Care Unit patients and provide references for improving Neurosurgical Intensive Care Unit nursing services.Methods:Totally 270 family members of neurosurgical patients hospitalized between March and May 2024 at Intensive Care Unit of Beijing Tiantan Hospital, Capital Medical University were selected by convenience sampling. Kano Model-based Questionnaire on the Needs of Family Members of Neurosurgical Intensive Care Unit Patients designed based on literature review and expert consultation, was distributed to investigate their families service needs. The Kano model analysis was applied to categorize service needs and prioritize them, followed by constructing a satisfaction-importance quadrant diagram.Results:A total of 270 questionnaires were distributed, with 248 valid responses collected, yielding an effective response rate of 91.85% (248/270) . The Kano attribute analysis revealed that all service needs were classified as "expected attributes". The satisfaction-importance quadrant diagram indicated that 10 items were located in the "advantage zone", nine items in the "retention zone", four items in the "observation zone", and seven items in the "improvement zone".Conclusions:The Kano model-based analysis of service needs helps healthcare providers identify the diverse needs of family members of Neurosurgical Intensive Care Unit patients. It is recommended that while maintaining the provision of services in the "advantage zone", healthcare providers integrate hospital resources to continuously improve services in the "improvement zone" to enhance family satisfaction and strengthen hospital competitiveness.
