This paper aims to discuss the construction and promotion strategy of medical care capacity framework based on the core literacy of palliative care， combining domestic and foreign research and clinical status. The research results show that it is particularly important to construct a framework of medical care competence based on palliative care. The core competencies required for palliative care include the ability to comprehensively evaluate and formulate personalized programs， effective communication skills， interdisciplinary teamwork skills， and the ability to continuously learn and improve themselves. The quality of care can be further improved if the above abilities are incorporated into the framework of medical care ability based on palliative care. However， there are a series of problems in the process of constructing the framework of palliative medical care capacity， such as difficult implementation of policy support， poor professionalism of talent team， single and irregular service model， low social acceptance， and difficult interdisciplinary cooperation and resource integration. After a detailed analysis of the problems， this paper puts forward the countermeasures to construct the framework of caring ability literacy based on palliative care. Effective countermeasures such as increasing policy support， cultivating comprehensive talents， developing diversified palliative care models， improving social recognition， and strengthening interdisciplinary cooperation and resource integration can effectively improve the core literacy and professional ability of medical care personnel， and then promote the development and improvement of palliative care services. In-depth discussion of the above contents can provide scientific reference for building a care model and literacy framework with palliative care as the core.

OBJECTIVE To provide a reference for optimizing and promoting the quality standards of Shechuan naolitong granules. METHODS Fifteen batches of Shechuan naolitong granules were used as samples to establish HPLC fingerprints using the Similarity Evaluation System for Chromatographic Fingerprint of Traditional Chinese Medicine （2012 edition）. Similarity evaluation and common peak identification were performed， and orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis （OPLS-DA） was used to assess quality differences among different batches and to screen quality differential components. Using salvianolic acid B（SAB） as the internal reference， quantitative analysis of multi-components by single-marker （QAMS） was developed to simultaneously determine geniposidic acid （GA）， chlorogenic acid （CA）， vaccarin （VA）， ferulic acid （FA） and senkyunolide I （SI）. The results were compared with those obtained by the external standard method. RESULTS A total of 13 common peaks were identified in the HPLC fingerprints of 15 batches of samples， and the similarities of the spectra were all above 0.96. Seven chromatographic peaks were identified as GA （peak 3）， CA （peak 6）， VA （peak 8）， FA （peak 9）， SI （peak 11）， SAB（peak 12） and TA（peak 13）. OPLS-DA indicated that the differential quality markers among 15 batches were peaks 5， 11 （SI）， and 12 （SAB）.Using SAB as the internal reference， the relative correction factors for GA， CA， VA， FA and SI were calculated as 1.058 4， 0.594 3， 0.643 3， 0.342 7 and 0.262 8， respectively. The mean content of GA， CA， VA， FA， SI and SAB across the 15 batches of samples were 0.155 0， 0.085 4， 0.140 3， 0.071 8， 0.072 7， 1.276 3 mg/g， respectively， showing no significant difference compared with the ESM （P＞0.05）. CONCLUSIONS The established HPLC fingerprint and QAMS are simple， efficient and economical， providing a reference for the quality control and further development of Shechuan naolitong granules.

Objective:To investigate the distribution of potential suitable habitats for Ixodes persulcatus in Heilongjiang Province during different climatic periods. Methods:The geographical location data of Ixodes persulcatus in Heilongjiang Province from 1980 to 2023 were collected through literature search and field ecological investigation. The environmental factor variables were downloaded from the WorldClim website and the Resource and Environmental Science and Data Platform. A combination of SDMtune, ENMTools packages, and the maximum entropy (MaxEnt) model were used to predict the potential habitats of Ixodes persulcatus in Heilongjiang Province during different climatic periods and determine its dominant environmental factors. Among them, the time range of historical climatic period data was 1970 - 2000. The future climatic period data (2021 - 2040, 2041 - 2060) were selected as the low forcing scenario (SSP126 scenario) of the shared socioeconomic pathways (SSP) in the Beijing Climate Center - Climate System Model version 2-Medium Resolution, to simulate the impact of global warming on the distribution of potential habitats for Ixodes persulcatus in Heilongjiang Province. Results:A total of 83 geographical distribution sites of Ixodes persulcatus in Heilongjiang Province were obtained. After screening, 10 environmental factors were included in the MaxEnt model. Among them, the cumulative contribution percentage of annual precipitation, average annual temperature, and vegetation type was 67.3%. Compared with historical climatic period, the total potential habitats of Ixodes persulcatus in Heilongjiang Province increased from 29.81 × 10 4 km 2 to 32.24 × 10 4 km 2 in 2041 - 2060. The center of potential habitats moved to 47.75° N, and 128.66° E, with a northwest offset of 126.07° and a migration distance of 45.83 km. Conclusion:With global climate warming, the total potential habitats of Ixodes persulcatus in Heilongjiang Province has increased, showing an overall trend of migration to the northwest.

Objective:To investigate the characteristics of the nocturnal melatonin secretion concentration and circadian rhythm in patients with wake-up stroke (WUS).Methods:Patients with acute ischemia stroke (AIS) admitted to the Department of Neurology, the Second Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University from October 2019 to August 2022 were enrolled. They were divided into WUS group and non-WUS group. Saliva samples within one week after admission were collected (at 19∶00, 20∶00, 21∶00, 22∶00, and 23∶00) and melatonin concentration was measured. Melatonin secretion curve graph was drawn, dim light melatonin onset (DLMO) was calculated, and circadian rhythms were evaluated. The differences in endogenous circadian rhythms between the WUS group and the non-WUS group were compared. The relevant factors of WUS were determined by multivariate logistic regression analysis. Results:A total of 116 patients with AIS were included, with 79 males (68.1%), aged 59.9±10.3 years; 35 patients (30.2%) were WUS. Univariate analysis showed that there was a statistically significant difference in the infarct site between the WUS group and the non-WUS group ( P=0.019). At 21:00 ( P=0.004) and the average ( P=0.038) nighttime melatonin concentration in the WUS group were significantly lower than those in the non-WUS group, and DLMO showed a significant delay compared to the non-WUS group (21:28:08 vs. 20:57:57; P=0.015). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed a significant independent correlation between DLMO delay and WUS (odds ratio 1.792, 95% confidence interval 1.123-2.858; P=0.014). Conclusion:Patients with WUS may have endogenous circadian rhythm delay, which is an independent risk factor for WUS.

Objective:To explore the effects of curcumin on the biological characteristics and expressions of NF-κB pathway-related proteins in glucocorticoid-resistant acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) cell line Jurkat.Methods:The drug-resistant ALL cell line Jurkat was selected, and 1 μmol/L dexamethasone was used as the optimal concentration for drug resistance of Jurkat cells, and the cells were passaged and cultured. The cells were divided into 10, 25 and 50 μmol/L curcumin groups, as well as 50 μmol/L pyrrolidinedithiocarbamate (PDTC) group, and control group (equal volume of culture medium without drug was added). The cells in each group were cultured for 72 h, and the cell morphology was observed under an inverted microscope. The CCK-8 method was used to detect the proliferation ability of Jurkat cells, flow cytometry was used to detect the apoptosis ability and cell cycle of Jurkat cells, real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) was used to detect the relative expressions of NF-κB p65, NF-κB p50, IκBα, and A20 mRNA, and Western blotting was used to detect the expressions of NF-κB p65, NF-κB p50, IκBα, caspase-8, caspase-3, bcl-2, and A20 proteins.Results:Jurkat cells were treated with 10, 25, 50 μmol/L curcumin and 50 μmol/L PDTC for 72 h. In the control group, the cell membranes were basically intact, the size was uniform, the cell was round and transparent, and the cell nucleus had uniform fluorescence; a large number of deformed cells and cell fragments were observed in curcumin groups with different concentrations and 50 μmol/L PDTC group, with concentrated and fragmented nuclei and obvious apoptosis. After treating Jurkat cells with different concentrations of curcumin and 50 μmol/L PDTC for 24, 48 and 72 h, respectively, the cell proliferation inhibition rates in curcumin groups with different concentrations and PDTC group were higher than those in the control group (all P < 0.01). The apoptosis rates at 72 h in the control group, 10 μmol/L curcumin group, 25 μmol/L curcumin group, 50 μmol/L curcumin group, and 50 μmol/L PDTC group were (4.9±0.1)%, (99.2±0.1)%, (99.9±0)%, (100.0±0)%, and (100.0±0)%, respectively, and the difference was statistically significant ( F = 2 876 604.40, P < 0.001); compared with the control group, the apoptosis rates in curcumin groups with different concentrations and 50 μmol/L PDTC group were higher, and the differences were statistically significant (all P < 0.01). Compared with the control group, the proportions of S-phase and G 2-phase cells were lower and the proportion of G 1-phase cells was higher in curcumin groups with different concentrations and 50 μmol/L PDTC group at 72 h, and the differences were statistically significant (all P < 0.01). Compared with the control group, the protein and mRNA expressions of NF-κB p65 and NF-κB p50 in curcumin groups with different concentrations and 50 μmol/L PDTC group were lower (all P < 0.01), while the protein expressions of IκBα, caspase-8 and caspase-3 were higher (all P < 0.01), the protein expression of bcl-2 was lower ( P < 0.01), and the protein and mRNA expressions of A20 were higher (both P < 0.01). Conclusions:Curcumin can effectively reverse glucocorticoid resistance and promote apoptosis in Jurkat cells, which may be related to the influence of curcumin on NF-κB pathway-related proteins.

Objective:To explore the diagnostic value of contrast-enhanced mammography (CEM) and MRI in differentiating benign and malignant breast lesions based on the 2013 breast imaging reporting and data system (BI-RADS) lexicon and the supplement on CEM.Methods:The clinical and imaging data of 83 patients with breast lesions from March 2019 to April 2022 in the Third Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University were retrospectively analyzed. Totally 100 breast lesions from 83 female patients aged 28 to 78 (49±14) years, were divided into benign lesions (50 lesions) and malignant lesions (50 lesions) according to the pathological results. The t-test, χ 2 test and Fisher′s exact test were used to compare the differences of clinical and imaging features between benign and malignant lesions, and these imaging features which had statistical differences were established CEM and MRI models by multivariate logistic regression analysis respectively. The receiver operating characteristic curves and the area under the curve (AUC) were used to assess the diagnostic efficacy of two models in differentiating benign and malignant breast lesions. Using the DeLong test compared the AUC. Results:Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that associated features (OR=9.075,95%CI 1.430-57.570, P=0.019), lesion conspicuity (OR=6.180,95%CI 2.608-14.646, P<0.001), mass margin (OR=2.193,95%CI 1.405-3.422, P=0.001) and calcification distribution (OR=2.147,95%CI 1.157-3.986, P=0.015) were independent predictors of differentiating benign and malignant breast lesions in CEM, and then the predictive model of CEM was constructed. Time-signal intensity curve (OR=9.230, 95%CI 3.178-26.805, P<0.001), associated features (OR=5.289,95%CI 1.343-20.831, P=0.017) and mass margin (OR=2.192,95%CI 1.336-3.597, P=0.002) were independent predictors of differentiating benign and malignant breast lesions in MRI, and the predictive model of MRI was constructed. The AUC of CEM and MRI models for differentiating benign and malignant breast lesions were 0.947 and 0.930 respectively, and two models were no significant difference ( Z=0.68, P=0.494). Conclusion:The diagnostic efficacy of CEM and MRI in differentiating benign and malignant breast lesions is comparable based on the 2013 BI-RADS lexicon and the supplement on CEM.

ObjectiveTo investigate the late diagnosis of HIV infection and associated factors in Jiading District between 1998 and 2022， and to provide the information for the development of AIDS prevention and control strategy. MethodsInformation of newly reported HIV/AIDS cases in Jiading District between 1998 and 2022 were obtained from the National Information System for Comprehensive AIDS Prevention and Control. Logistic regression was used to explore the associated factors of late diagnosis of HIV infection. ResultsIn total， 809 HIV/AIDS cases was newly reported， 324 of which were late diagnosis with the overall rate of late diagnosis of 40.1%. Despite an increased tendency from 2016 to 2018， the rate of late diagnosis showed a downward trend from 1998 to 2015. The late diagnosis rate was 29.5% in 2015. From 2016 to 2022， the average rate was 34.9%. The average age of cases with a late diagnosis was 44.8±14.6 years old. Age groups over 50 had the highest risk，at 57.7%， accounting for 35.8% of all cases of late diagnosis. All age groups older than 30（OR=1.37‒3.50） had a higher rate of late diagnosis than the group between age 21 and 30. In comparison to patients at VCT clinic， the rate of late diagnosis among sexually transmitted disease （STD） outpatients （OR=2.23， 95%CI：1.42‒3.49） and other clinical patients （OR=2.75， 95%CI：1.88‒4.01） was higher. ConclusionThe late diagnosis rate of HIV infection is relatively high in Jiading District. AIDS education and prevention activities should be strengthened among people aged over 50 years. For early detection of HIV infection， VCT clinic platform’s function should be fully utilized. Medical institutions should pay attention to HIV testing in patients.

Background Occupational stress and depressive symptoms of disease prevention and control personnel are serious. Objective To investigate the relationship between occupational stress, psychological capital, and depressive symptoms of disease prevention and control personnel, and analyze the potential mediating effect of psychological capital on the relationship between occupational stress and depressive symptoms. Methods From July to September 2020, a cluster random sampling method was used to select 2201 employees from 21 centers for disease control and prevention as study subjects covering all levels of administrative divisions in Jiangsu Province. A total of 2036 valid questionnaires were collected with a recovery rate of 92.5%. The Core Occupational Stress Scale, Patient Health Questionnaire, and Psychological Capital Questionnaire were used to investigate their occupational stress, depressive symptoms, and psychological capital. Stratified regression analysis was used to explore the effects of occupational stress and psychological capital on depressive symptoms. A mediating effect model was used to analyze and verify the potential mediating effect of psychological capital on the relationship between occupational stress and depressive symptoms. Results The total scores in M (P₂₅, P₇₅) of occupational stress, depressive symptoms, and psychological capital in the target population were 42.0 (37.0, 48.0), 8.0 (4.0, 9.0), and 4.6 (4.0, 5.0) respectively. The positive rate of occupational stress was 31.0% (631/2036), and the positive rate of depressive symptoms was 22.0% (448/2036). The dimensional scores of organization and reward, and demand and effort of occupational stress were positively correlated with the total score of depressive symptoms [Spearman correlation coefficients (r_s) were 0.371 and 0.269, P<0.05]. The dimensional scores of social support and autonomy of occupational stress and the score of psychological capital were negatively correlated with the total score of depressive symptoms (r_s=−0.373, −0.112, −0.494, P<0.05). The organization and reward, and demand and effort had positive effects on depressive symptoms (b=0.188, 0.177, P<0.05), while social support and autonomy had negative effects on depressive symptoms (b=−0.290, −0.078, P<0.05), and associated with a 22.5% increase of explanatory variance. Psychological capital had a negative effect on depressive symptoms (b=−0.368, P<0.05), and associated with an 11.0% increase of explanatory variance. Psychological capital had mediating effects on the associations of social support, organization and reward, and autonomy with depressive symptoms, and the mediating effect values were −0.210 (95%CI: −0.253-−0.171), 0.096 (95%CI: 0.071-0.122), and −0.164 (95%CI: −0.229-−0.103), respectively. The corresponding mediating effect percentages were 40.23%, 26.97%, and 45.56%, respectively. Conclusion Occupational stress of disease prevention and control personnel can directly affect depressive symptoms, but also indirectly through psychological capital. Psychological capital plays a partial mediating role in the associations of social support, organization and reward, and autonomy of occupational stress with depressive symptoms. The occurrence of depressive symptoms can be reduced by decreasing occupational stress and increasing psychological capital.

Objective:To explore the correlation between fibular head height and varus knee osteoarthritis occurrence and severity.Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed on 618 participants (618 knees, 184 males and 434 females, mean age 61.12±10.98 years) who underwent standard weight-bearing full-leg radiographs and were diagnosed as non-knee osteoarthritis or varus knee osteoarthritis from January 2019 to June 2019. Knee osteoarthritis was diagnosed according to Kellgren-Lawrence grading: 0-I grades were diagnosed as non-osteoarthritis, II-IV grades were diagnosed as osteoarthritis. Joint line convergence angle (JLCA), medial proximal tibial angle (MPTA) and hip-knee-ankle angle were measured on X-rays to reflect varus deformity. The fibular head height was defined as the vertical distance from upper edge of fibular head to lateral tibial plateau. Patients were divided into 5 groups according to Kellgren-Lawrence grading. Differences of age, gender, height, weight, body mass index, varus deformity (JLCA, MPTA and hip-knee-ankle angle) between Kellgren-Lawrence 0-IV grades were compared. Ordinal logistic regression was performed to analyze the correlation between fibular head height and Kellgren-Lawrence grades. Pearson's correlation analysis was used for the correlation among fibular head height, JLCA, MPTA and hip-knee-ankle angle, and the main factor of JLCA, MPTA and hip-knee-ankle angle was extracted by factor analysis. Multiple linear regressions were used to analyze the correlation between fibular head height and varus deformity score.Results:There were 68, 66, 97, 98, 289 participants in Kellgren-Lawrence grades 0-IV respectively that was 134 participants were diagnosed as non-osteoarthritis and 484 participants were diagnosed as osteoarthritis. Fibular head height and MPTA showed a decreasing trend ( F=129.076, 24.875; P<0.001) while JLCA and hip-knee-ankle angle showed an increasing trend ( F=414.346, 105.996; P<0.001) with the increase in Kellgren-Lawrence grading. Age, body mass index and fibular head height are influencing factors of Kellgren-Lawrence grading with OR(95%CI) were 1.116(1.093, 1.141), 1.363(1.060, 1.754), 0.617(0.575, 0.662) . Fibular head height was negatively correlated with JLCA and hip-knee-ankle angle ( r=-0.641, -0.478; P<0.001) , respectively, and positively correlated with MPTA ( r=0.320, P<0.001). There were significant correlations between age, fibular head height and the varus deformity score ( β=0.274, -0.457; P<0.001). Conclusion:Fibular head height of patients with varus knee osteoarthritis is lower than that of non-osteoarthritis. In addition to age and body mass index, fibular head height is a risk factor for varus knee osteoarthritis occurrence. The smaller the fibular head height is, the more serious the osteoarthritis severity and varus deformity are.
