ObjectiveTo investigate the present situation of input, output, outcome and impact of all registered community-based rehabilitation stations in Inner Mongolia in China, and analyze how the input predict the output, outcome and impact. MethodsFrom March 1st to April 30th, 2025, a questionnaire survey was conducted on all registered community-based rehabilitation stations in Inner Mongolia, covering four dimensions: input, output, outcome and impact. A total of 1 365 questionnaires were distributed. The input included four items: laws and policies, human resources, equipment and facilities, and rehabilitation information management. The output included two items: technical paths and benefits/effectiveness. The outcome included three items: coverage rates, rehabilitation interventions and functional results. The impact included two items: health and sustainability. Each item contained several questions, all of which were described in a positive way. Each question was scored from one to five. A lower score indicated that the situation of the community-based rehabilitation station was more in line with the content described in the question. Regression analysis was performed using the total score of each item of input dimension as independent variables, and the total scores of the output, outcome and impact dimensions as dependent variables. ResultsA total of 1 262 valid questionnaires were collected. The mean values of input, output, outcome and impact of community-based rehabilitation stations were 1.827 to 1.904, with coefficient of variation of 45.892% to 49.239%. The regression analysis showed that, rehabilitation information management, human resources, and laws and policies significantly predicted the output dimension (R² = 0.910, P < 0.001). Meanwhile, all four items in the input dimension predicted both the outcome (R² = 0.850, P < 0.001) and impact dimensions (R² = 0.833, P < 0.001). ConclusionInput, output, outcome and impact of the community-based rehabilitation stations in Inner Mongolia were generally in line with the content of the questions, although some imbalances were observed. Additionally, the input of community-based rehabilitation stations could significantly predict their output, outcome and impact.

Objective To investigate the relationship between serum forkhead box F1(FOXF1)and Ape-lin-13 levels and carotid atherosclerosis(CAS)in elderly patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM).Methods From January 2022 to March 2024,207 elderly T2DM patients admitted to the hospital(T2DM group)and 52 healthy elderly patients underwent physical examination(control group)were selected as the study objects.The elderly T2DM patients were divided into CAS group(128 cases)and non-CAS group(79 cases)according to the occurrence of CAS.Serum FOXF1 and Apelin-13 levels were detected by real-time flu-orescent quantitative PCR and enzyme-linked immunoadsorption assay.The influencing factors of CAS in eld-erly T2DM patients were determined by multivariate unconditional Logistic regression,and the predictive effi-cacy of serum FOXF1 and Apelin-13 levels was analyzed by receiver operating characteristic curve.Results The levels of FOXF1 and Apelin-13 in T2DM group were lower than those in control group(P＜0.05).The inci-dence of CAS in 207 elderly T2DM patients was 61.84％(128/207).The levels of serum FOXF1 and Apelin-13 in CAS group were lower than those in non-CAS group(P＜0.05).The independent risk factors of CAS in elderly T2DM patients were the duration of T2DM,glycosylated hemoglobin and low density lipoprotein cho-lesterol(P＜0.05),and the independent protective factors were FOXF1 and Apelin-13(P＜0.05).The com-bined prediction of serum FOXF1 and Apelin-13 levels for CAS in elderly T2DM patients was 0.882,which was larger than 0.782 and 0.791 predicted by serum FOXF1 and Apelin-13 levels alone(P＜0.05).Conclu-sion The decrease of serum FOXF1 and Apelin-13 levels in elderly T2DM patients is closely related to CAS,and the combined detection of serum FOXF1 and Apelin-13 levels has a high predictive effect on CAS in elder-ly T2DM patients.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of endovascular therapy (EVT) for early neurological deterioration (END) in patients with minor stroke due to acute anterior circulation large vessel occlusion.Methods:Consecutive patients with mild stroke due to acute anterior circulation large vessel occlusion admitted to Mianyang Central Hospital from October 2015 to October 2023 were included retrospectively. Minor stroke was defined as a baseline National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score <6. END was defined as an increase of ≥4 in NIHSS score compared to baseline within 12 hours of onset. According to whether EVT was performed or not, they were divided into EVT group and standard medical treatment (SMT) group. At 90 days after onset, the modified Rankin Scale was used to evaluate the outcome. 0-1 was defined as excellent outcome (primary outcome measure) and 0-2 was defined as good outcome (secondary outcome measure). The safety endpoints included symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (sICH) within 72 hours after EVT and all-cause mortality within 90 days. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to determine the correlation between EVT and clinical outcome. Results:A total of 164 patients with minor stroke due to acute anterior circulation large vessel occlusion were included. Eighty-four patients (51.2%) developed END, of which 52 (61.9%) underwent EVT and 32 (38.1%) received SMT; 60 patients (71.4%) had excellent outcome, and 64 (76.2%) had good outcome. There was no significant difference in demographic and baseline clinical data between the EVT group and the SMT group. The excellent outcome rate of the EVT group at 90 days after onset showed a trend higher than that of SMT group (78.8% vs. 59.4%; χ2=3.680, P=0.055), but there was no significant difference in the good outcome rate and safety endpoints between the two groups. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that after adjusting for confounding factors, EVT was significantly and independently associated with excellent outcome at 90 days (odds ratio 4.955, 95% confidence interval 1.331-22.284; P=0.024). Conclusion:For patients with minor stroke due to anterior circulation large vessel occlusion who experience END, EVT may improve their functional outcome without increasing the risk of sICH and mortality.

The integration of multi-source data and the establishment of early warning indicator systems constitute pivotal elements for advancing surveillance and early warning capacities in respiratory infectious diseases. Given the multifaceted transmission mechanisms and complex contributing factors inherent in respiratory infectious diseases, surveillance datasets and associated early warning indicators demonstrate notable heterogeneity and sophisticated interrelationships. Furthermore, as surveillance and early warning requirements significantly vary across diverse epidemiological scenarios, accurate assessment of the value and applicability of distinct data types and indicators is imperative. This paper systematically reviews and synthesizes recent advancements in surveillance data and early warning indicators for respiratory infectious diseases, drawing on both domestic and international research. Particular attention is dedicated to analyzing the applicability and efficacy of various data types and indicators within multiple practical contexts, aiming to provide robust theoretical frameworks and methodological guidance to facilitate the development of resilient and efficient surveillance and early warning systems for respiratory infectious diseases.

Objective:To explore the relationship between urinary cadmium levels and thyroid hormone levels in people aged 40-89 years old in selected areas of China.Methods:Based on the "Investigation of the Impact of Soil Quality of Agricultural Land on Human Health in Typical Areas" project from October 2019 to August 2020, a multi-stage stratified random sampling method was used to include 6 588 middle-aged and older adults aged 40-89. Demographic characteristics, dietary frequency and disease status were collected through the questionnaire and physical examination. Urinary cadmium and urinary creatinine were detected by random midstream urine. Fasting venous blood was collected for the detection of Triiodothyronine (T3) and Thyroxine (T4). The linear mixed effects model was used to explore the association of urine cadmium levels with thyroid hormone levels. Its dose-response relationship was explored by using the restricted cubic spline.Results:The age of the subjects was (63.48±12.18) years, with males accounting for 51.28%. The M ( Q 1,Q 3) of urinary cadmium level, T3 and T4 was 2.48 (1.36, 4.42) μg/g·creatinine, (1.96±0.51) nmol/L and (113.75±29.11) nmol/L, respectively. The linear mixed effects model showed that the changes of T3 and T4 were 0.027 (0.009, 0.044) nmol/L and 2.019 (1.084, 2.953) nmol/L for each one-unit increase (natural logarithm transformed) of urinary cadmium. The restricted cubic spline showed that there was a positive nonlinear association between urinary cadmium and T3 as well as T4 (all Pnonlinear<0.05). Conclusion:In selected areas of China, the urinary cadmium level of middle-aged and older adults aged 40-89 years is positively associated with T3 and T4.

Objective:To analyze the efficacy of combination of peginterferon α-2b（Peg-IFN α-2b）with nucleos（t）ide analogues（NAs）on antiviral therapy in children with chronic hepatitis B（CHB）and to provide an optimized clinical treatment strategies for CHB children.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on 30 CHB children treated in The First Affiliated Hospital of the Army Medical University（Southwest Hospital）from January 2022 to January 2025 with treatment duration at least 48 weeks. The enrolled children were aged between 2 and 17 years and divided into the NAs combined with Peg-IFN α-2b（NPI）group（n=13）and NAs group（n=17）by their therapy regimens. The characteristics of baseline，week 12，week 24，week 48 and week 96 were compared between groups，as well as the differences in response to biochemical，immune and viral indicators at each observation point. Logistic regression analysis and receiver operating characteristic（ROC）curve analysis were performed to identify factors influencing the HBsAg seroclearance. Results:At baseline of treatment，the proportion of HBeAg positivity in the NPI group and the NAs group was high（76.9% vs 86.6%， χ2=0.679， P=0.628），and the alanine aminotransferase（ALT）and aspartate aminotransferase（AST）in the NPI group were significantly lower than those in the NAs group（ P<0.001）. At 24 weeks，the decrease in HBsAg in the NPI group was also significantly higher than that in the NAs group（ Z=-3.161， P=0.002）. Finally，the cumulative seroclearance rate of HBsAg at 96 weeks in the NPI group was significantly higher than that in the NAs group（46.15% vs 5.88%， χ2=0.679， P=0.025）. Mulitivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that treatment regimen and gender were risk factors affecting the outcome of HBsAg（ P<0.05）. ROC curve analysis showed that the increase in ALT at 12 weeks compared with baseline（AUC=0.857，Cutoff value=3.615 IU/L），the decrease in ALT at 24 weeks（AUC=0.870，Cutoff value=47.85 IU/L），and the decrease in HBsAg at 12 weeks and especially at 24 weeks（AUC=0.885，Cutoff value=0.97log IU/ml）were effective predictors of HBsAg prognosis at 96 weeks. Conclusion:In CHB children，antiviral regimen Peg-IFN α-2b combined with NAs was more effective than NAs alone in improving the HBsAg seroclearance rate of CHB，and the effects in female were better than in male. The decline of HBsAg and the fluctuation of ALT in the early treatment period are valid predictors of HBsAg clearance.

Objective:To investigate the influence of genetic and environmental factors on the clinical characteristics of upper urinary tract calculi in pediatric patients.Methods:This study was a retrospective case series. The clinical data of 179 children under the age of 14 with upper urinary tract calculi treated at Beijing Friendship Hospital，Capital Medical University，from August 2014 to February 2023 were analyzed. There were 121 males（67.60%）and 58 females（32.40%），with a median age at onset of 2.10（1.14，5.17）years. Thirty-three cases（18.44%）had a family history of urinary stone disease. Stone characteristics was defined by CT，with a median stone burden（sum of the diameters of all stones）of 1.3（1.00，1.60）cm. Fifty-four（30.17%）children had staghorn calculi. Multiple stones were present in 92 cases（51.40%），and bilateral stones in 52 cases（29.05%），with hydronephrosis was present in 119 children（66.48%）. The median follow-up time was 67 months，and 36 children（20.11%）experienced stone recurrence. Dietary habits and related information were collected by electronic questionnaire，including a total of 115 children（64.25%）with an unbalanced diet，101（56.42%）with insufficient water intake，and 32 children（17.88%）with a preference for a high-protein diet. Tap water was used as the source of drinking water by 128 patients（71.51%），and 107（59.78%）took dietary supplements. Whole-exome sequencing revealed that 55 children（30.73%）carried pathogenic mutations in stone-related genes. Binary logistic regression was used for univariate analysis of above risk factors. Variables with P < 0.1 in univariate analysis and without multicollinearity were included in multivariate logistic regression to further screen for independent risk factors. Results:Multivariate analysis confirmed that carrying stone-related pathogenic gene mutations（ OR = 3.06，95% CI 1.25?7.45， P = 0.014）and insufficient water intake（ OR = 3.28，95% CI 1.14?9.47， P = 0.028）were independent risk factors for higher stone burden. A high-protein diet（ OR = 2.40，95% CI 1.03?5.63， P = 0.044），carrying stone-related pathogenic gene mutations（ OR = 4.57，95% CI 2.21?9.46， P<0.01），and a family history of stones（ OR = 3.18，95% CI 1.28 ~ 7.91， P = 0.013）were independent risk factors for staghorn calculi. Multiple stones were closely associated with a family history of stones（ OR = 2.66，95% CI 1.15-6.17， P = 0.022）and carrying stone-related pathogenic gene mutations（ OR = 3.22，95% CI 1.60-6.48， P = 0.001）. Moreover，carrying stone-related pathogenic gene mutations（ OR = 5.19，95% CI 2.52?13.82， P < 0.01）were an independent risk factor for stone recurrence，whereas dietary supplement intake was a protective factor（ OR = 0.26，95% CI 0.11?0.62， P = 0.002）. Conclusions:Genetic and environmental factors play significant roles in the occurrence and development of pediatric upper urinary tract stones. A high-protein diet as well as a positive family history of stones are independent risk factors for staghorn calculi，and insufficient water intake is a critical environmental factor for stone formation，while appropriate use of dietary supplements may help reduce the risk of stone recurrence. Genetic testing indicates that approximately 30% of children carry stone-related pathogenic gene mutations，and these patients prone to severe stone and an increased risk of recurrence.
