This study analyzed the epidemiological characteristics of imported malaria in Yunnan Province from 2020 to 2023,to provide scientific evidence for formulating measures to decrease imported malaria and prevent re-establishment of malaria transmission.Malaria data reported by the China Disease Prevention and Control Information System were analyzed to determine parasite species;sources of infection;temporal,spatial,and population distributions;and importation routes.A total of 828 malaria cases were reported in the province.Plasmodium vivax and Plasmodium falciparum accounted for 89.98%and 8.33%of cases,respectively.A total of 47.58%of cases were imported from Myanmar,and all P.falciparum malaria ca-ses were from Africa.Thirteen(81.25%)prefectures or municipalities reported malaria,among which Dehong,Baoshan,Kunming,and Lincang reported 94.32%of cases.A total of 52.54%of cases were in young men.The proportion of cross-bor-der personnel flow,land input,and aircraft input were 88.89%and 11.11%respectively.A total of 98.19%of patients sought medical care within 7 days after fever onset,and 82.85%initiated diagnosis for malaria,and 84.90%of diagnoses were con-firmed by health facilities at or below the county level.Imported malaria is a major challenge in preventing re-establishment of transmission in Yunnan.Most imported cases involved cross-border malaria transmission of mainly Plasmodium vivax between China and Myanmar.To achieve malaria elimination,vigilance of health staff in malaria diagnosis and treatment should be pro-moted,and intensive malaria health education should be provided to people traveling to malaria endemic territories,to enable individual protection,and timely diagnosis and treatment after return from endemic countries.

Objective To investigate the stability and reproducibility of the treatment fractions during the intensity-modulated radiotherapy(IMRT)for breast cancer and the effect of respiratory motion on the dose irradiation of breast cancer radiotherapy by comparing the results of breast cancer dosimetric verification based on fractionated images by an electronic portal imaging device(EPID).Methods A total of 28 IMRT patients admitted to some hospital from January to June 2023 were grouped according to the pathological results and effects of respiratory motion on the accuracy of radiotherapy during clinical treatment,including 14 cases in a breast group and 14 cases in a non-breast group with 8 ones of head and neck tumors,5 ones of esophageal cancer and 1 case of cervical cancer.All the patients underwent a scan with cone beam computed tomography(CBCT)before the first radiotherapy,and image registration was carried out with a positioning CT.An EPID was used to acquire transmission dose images of 10 fractions of radiotherapy,and γ analysis was performed using the RIT 113 QA software to compare the images of the subsequent 9 fractions with those of the first fraction,with the images of the first fraction of radiotherapy as the baseline values.Absolute maximum dose normalization was implemented under the condition of 10%dose assessment threshold,and the γ-pass rates under the 3 criteria of 2%/2 mm,3%/2 mm and 3%/3 mm were counted separately.The fraction dose verification results of the 28 patients were divided into 3 treatment phases of 2-4 times(T1),5-7 times(T2)and 8-10 times(T3)to analyze the stability of dose irradiation during the radiotherapy.SPSS 22.0 software was used for statistical analysis.Results Under the condition of 10%dose assessment threshold,the breast and non-breast groups had the γ-pass rates being(95.80±2.65)%and(94.60±6.59)%under the 2%/2 mm criterion and(98.46±1.31)%and(97.50±3.30)%under the 3%/2 mm criterion respectively,and the differences were statistically significant(all P<0.05).Under the assessment criteria of 2%/2 mm,3%/2 mm and 3%/3 mm,the breast group had the γ-pass rates of fractions of treatment significantly lower than those of the non-breast group(all P<0.05),while the γ-pass rates showed no significant differences at T1,T2 and T3 treatment phases(all P>0.05).Conclusion EPID fraction images contribute to evaluating IMRT accuracy effectively.IMRT has high stability and reproducibility during the treatment cycle,while respiration may result in dose deviation during the fraction radiotherapy for breast cancer,and optical surface tracking technology or active breathing control technology is suggested to be involved in to relieve dose deviation.[Chinese Medical Equipment Journal,2025,46(6):54-58]

Based on the results of the National Drug Sampling and Inspection Programme,we summarized the history,the standard collection,the production enterprises and the dosage form specifications,the quality standard study,the pharmacological and pharmacodynamic study,and the clinical application study of Wuwei Qingzhuo preparation of Mongolian medicine and Shiliu Jianwei preparation of Zang medicine,to provide the basis for improved quality standards for both preparations.The development of these two preparations was searched and analyzed through literature.The available information shows that there is very little research on the two preparations and insufficient pharmacological experimental and clinical experimental data.The two preparations are basically the same in prescription and efficacy.However,the quality standards are very different,which are not conducive to the quality control of the two and their related dosage forms.And it is suggested that the Chinese Pharmacopoeia should take the situation of this category into comprehensive consideration,and unify the quality standards of the two preparations.

Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy and safety of facilitated percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI)with half-dose recombinant staphylokinase(r-SAK)in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction(STEMI)who are expected to undergo PCI within 120 minutes.Methods From October 2021 to August 2022,a total of 200 STEMI patients in eight centers were included and randomly assigned in a 1﹕1 ratio to either r-SAK group or control group.Patients received loading doses of aspirin and ticagrelor and intravenous heparin and were randomized to receive an intravenous bolus of either 5 mg r-SAK or normal saline prior to PCI.The outcomes were set as ST-segment resolution(STR)at 60-90 minutes after PCI,the proportion and transition of pathological Q waves on the 5th day after PCI,and the proportion of high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T(hs-cTnT)peaking within 12 hours of onset.The safety outcome was major bleeding events defined as Bleeding Academic Research Consortium(BARC)≥type 3 bleeding during hospitalization.Results Compared with the control group,the r-SAK group had a higher proportion of STR≥70%within 60-90 minutes after PCI(58.3%vs.40.3%,P=0.009);a lower proportion of pathological Q waves(59.1%vs.74.1%,P=0.040);a lower rate of Q wave progression(14.8%vs.43.2%,P<0.001);a higher rate of Q wave disappearance(12.5%vs.3.7%,P=0.027);and a higher proportion of hs-cTnT peaking within 12 hours of symptom onset[31/40(77.5%)vs.17/33(51.5%),P=0.027].Regarding the safety outcome,no significant difference in BARC≥type 3 bleeding was found between the two groups during hospitalization(P>0.05).Conclusions For STEMI patients who were expected to undergo primary PCI within 120 minutes of symptom onset,the facilitated PCI with half-dose r-SAK significantly increased the proportion of STR≥70%at 60-90 minutes after PCI,reduced the formation of pathological Q waves,and shortened the time to peak hs-cTnT,without increasing the risk of bleeding,which should be an alternative reperfusion strategy worthy of further study.

Objective To comprehensively analyze the clinical characteristics and risk factors of children with refractory mycoplasma pneumonia(RMPP),precisely identify the joint predictors in these children,and construct a prediction model.This aims to offer a scientific foundation for the early identification of RMPP and the formulation of accurate treatment and medication strategies.Methods A retrospective analysis was performed on the clinical data of 282 children diagnosed with mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia(MPP)who were admitted to the Pediatric Department of the Seventh Medical Center of the Chinese People's Liberation Army General Hospital between August 1,2023,and February 29,2024.Among these children,119 with RMPP were classified into the RMPP group,while the remaining 163 with general MPP(GMPP)were assigned to the GMPP group.The clinical data of both groups,encompassing age,gender,duration of fever,symptoms,laboratory test indices,chest imaging data,complications,etc.,were compared.A logistic probability model(LogP model)for joint application was constructed.The discriminatory ability of the model was evaluated using the area under the receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve,and the calibration of the model was assessed by means of a calibration curve.Results In comparison with the GMPP group,children in the RMPP group exhibited a significantly longer duration of fever(P=0.002).Moreover,they had a higher incidence of complications,including myocardial damage and coagulation dysfunction(P<0.05).Regarding inflammatory markers,the levels of C-reactive protein(CRP),procalcitonin(PCT),and lactate dehydrogenase(LDH)were notably elevated in the RMPP group(P<0.05),whereas the level of albumin(Alb)was lower(P=0.001).In the RMPP group,the levels of interleukin-2(IL-2),interleukin-5(IL-5),interleukin-8(IL-8),interleukin-1β(IL-1β),and D-Dimer were increased,while the levels of interleukin-6(IL-6)and interleukin-17(IL-17)were decreased(P<0.05).Chest computed tomography(CT)scans revealed a higher proportion of lung consolidation,pleural effusion,and atelectasis in the RMPP group(P<0.05).Multivariate logistic regression analysis demonstrated that CRP,total bilirubin(T-BIL),LDH,IL-17,and prothrombin time(PT)were independent risk factors for RMPP(P<0.05).The receiver operating characteristic(ROC)predictive model established based on these factors had an area under the curve(AUC)of 0.787(95%confidence interval[CI]:0.693~0.880),with a cutoff value of 0.421,a sensitivity of 0.786,and a specificity of 0.660.The calibration curve indicated that the predicted probability matched well with the reference probability,and there was no statistical difference in the results of the Hosmer-Lemeshow test(P>0.05).Conclusions The clinical features of children with RMPP are predominantly characterized by prolonged fever,moderate lung lesions,other organ injuries,and high inflammatory markers.CRP,T-BIL,LDH,IL-17,and PT can act as independent risk factors for RMPP.
