[Objective] To explore the optimal pressure parameters for chyle plasma filtration under low-temperature conditions, and to improve the quality of chyle plasma treatment and filtration efficiency by improving experimental methods. [Methods] The filtration efficiency and filtration time of 30 severe chyle plasma samples under conventional preparation environment pressure and under preparation environment with a controlled filtration membrane pressure difference of 0.5 bar were compared. [Results] The absorbance of severe chyle plasma samples before and after filtration under two different preparation pressures was statistically significant (P<0.05), and both achieved the expected filtration effect. Under the preparation environment of controlling the pressure difference of the filtration membrane to 0.5 bar, the filtration was faster and with better effect, which was statistically significant compared to the conventional preparation environment pressure (P<0.05). [Conclusion] By selecting the optimal pressure parameters for filtering chyle plasma under low-temperature conditions, the efficiency of chyle plasma filtration under low-temperature conditions has been improved, and the practicality and reliability of low-temperature filtration technology have been enhanced.

ObjectiveTo analyze the reported cases of infectious diseases across different tiers of public medical and healthcare institutions in Minhang District, Shanghai from 2013 to 2023, to investigate the status and changes in reported infectious diseases in this district from a temporal, etiological, and demographic perspectives, so as to provide a scientific basis for the construction of a hierarchica early-warning surveillance system under the grading diagnosis and treatment model in medical institutions, as well as for optimizing sentinel surveillance at facilities of different levels. MethodsA retrospective analysis was performed using surveillance data from the China Disease Prevention and Control Information System in Minhang District from 2013 to 2023. Reported infectious diseases were categorized into three categories based on transmission routes: respiratory infectious diseases, intestinal infectious diseases, and sexually transmitted and blood borne infectious diseases. According to the implementation phase of the grading diagnosis and treatment policy, the research time was divided into four time periods: 2013‒2016, 2017‒2019, 2020‒2022, and 2023. The distribution and temporal changes of reported cases of infectious diseases were compared across community health service centers (CHCs), secondary hospitals, tertiary grade-A hospitals and tertiary grade-B hospitals. Chi-square test was used for univariate analysis of differences in the number of reported cases. Quantitative data with normal distribution were analyzed using parametric tests, otherwise, Kruskal⁃Wallis H tests were used. ResultsThe proportions of total reported cases of infectious diseases in medical institutions at all levels in Minhang District, Shanghai from 2013 to 2023 were 10.66% in CHCs, 9.10% in secondary hospitals, 64.95% in tertiary grade-B hospitals, and 15.29% in tertiary grade-A hospitals, with an overall decline and then rebound trend in the reported cases. After the implementation of grading diagnosis and treatment policy, the number of reported cases in CHCs and secondary hospitals showed a trend of first decreasing and then increasing, while that in tertiary grade-B hospitals showed a steady decreasing trend and that in tertiary grade-A hospitals showed an increasing trend. In terms of the research periods divided above, a total of 10 392 cases were reported in 2013‒2016 (70.34% from tertiary grade-B hospitals and 12.59% from CHCs), including 2 922 cases of respiratory infectious diseases, 1 241 cases of intestinal infectious diseases, and 6 229 cases of sexually transmitted and blood-borne infectious diseases. Between 2017 and 2019, a total of 6 967 cases were reported (73.49% from tertiary grade-B hospitals and 11.84% from tertiary grade-A hospitals), including 2 983 cases of respiratory infectious diseases, 279 cases of intestinal infectious diseases, and 3 705 cases of sexually transmitted and blood-borne infectious diseases. Between 2020 and 2022, a total of 4 599 cases were reported (69.92% from tertiary grade-B hospitals and 24.57% from tertiary grade-A hospitals), including 1 627 cases of respiratory infectious diseases, 123 cases of intestinal infectious diseases, and 2 849 cases of sexually transmitted and blood-borne infectious diseases. In 2023, a total of 4 648 cases were reported (35.20% from tertiary grade-B hospitals and 27.50% from tertiary grade-A hospitals), including 3 165 cases of respiratory infectious diseases, 69 cases of intestinal infectious diseases, and 1 414 cases of sexually transmitted and blood-borne infectious diseases. The proportion of reported cases from tertiary grade-B hospitals was the highest in all the four research periods, but exhibited an obvious decrease in 2023. The differences in the reported cases of infectious diseases with different transmission routes among medical institutions at all levels were statistically significant (χ²=3 225.628, P<0.05). The differences in the mean age of patients among medical institutions at all levels were statistically significant (H=1 325.927, P<0.05). ConclusionThere are significant differences in the number of reported cases of infectious disease in the medical institutions at different levels. Tertiary grade-B hospitals have historically dominated the number of reported cases, but its share has declined recently. Whereas, CHCs and tertiary grade-A hospitals have played an increasingly important role in the surveillance and early warning of respiratory and intestinal infectious diseases. Therefore, it is recommended to leverage the strengths of grading diagnosis and treatment to establish targeted sentinel sites and deploy specialized teams tailored to the epidemiological characteristics of specific disease categories.

This study explores the effects and possible mechanisms of nuclear factor E2 related factor 2 (NRF2) on ovarian granulosa cells, providing a scientific basis to prevent premature ovarian failure. An ovarian cell injury model was constructed by treating human ovarian granulosa cell (KGN cell) with 4-Vinylcyclohexene dioxide (VCD). Firstly, KGN cells were treated with different concentrations of VCD, and cell counting kit 8 (CCK-8) was used to detect ovarian cell proliferation. After determining IC 50 by CCK8, the levels of estradiol and progesterone in the cell supernatant were detected using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), reactive oxygen species (ROS) assay kit was used to detect the content of ROS in ovarian cells, real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qRT PCR) was used to detect the mRNA expression level of NRF2, and Western blot was used to detect the protein expression level of NRF2. Further, NRF2 silence (siNRF2) and overexpression (NRF2-OE) cell models were constructed through lentivirus transfection, and the effects of regulating NRF2 on VCD treated cell models were investigated by detecting hormone levels, oxidative stress indicators (ROS, SOD, GSH-Px), and autophagy (LC3B level). The results showed that VCD intervention inhibited the proliferation of ovarian granulosa cells in a time-dependent and dose-dependent manner ( F>100, P<0.05), with an IC 50 of 1.2 mmol/L at 24 hours. After VCD treatment, the level of estradiol in the cell supernatant decreased from (56.32±10.18) ng/ml to (24.59±8.75) ng/ml ( t=5.78, P<0.05). Progesterone decreased from (50.25±7.03) ng/ml to (25.13±6.67) ng/ml ( t=6.54, P<0.05). After VCD treatment, the SOD of cells decreased from (44.47±7.71) ng/ml to (30.92±4.97) ng/ml ( t=3.61, P<0.05). GSH-Px decreased from (68.51±10.17) ng/ml to (35.19±6.59) ng/ml ( t=5.73, P<0.05). Simultaneously accompanied by an increase in autophagy and a decrease in NRF2. This study successfully constructed KGN cell models that silenced NRF2 and overexpressed NRF2. Subsequently, this study treated each group of cells with VCD and found that the cell proliferation activity of the siNRF2 group was significantly reduced ( t=8.37, P<0.05), while NRF2-OE could reverse the cell activity damage caused by VCD ( t=3.37, P<0.05). The siNRF2 group had the lowest level of estradiol ( t=5.78, P<0.05), while NRF2-OE could reverse the decrease in cellular estradiol levels caused by VCD ( t=5.58, P<0.05). The siNRF2 group had the lowest progesterone levels ( t=3.02, P<0.05), while NRF2-OE could reverse the decrease in cellular progesterone levels caused by VCD ( t=2.41, P<0.05). The ROS level in the siNRF2 group was the highest ( t=2.86, P<0.05), NRF2-OE could reverse the increase in ROS caused by VCD ( t=3.14, P<0.05), the SOD enzyme content in the siNRF2 group was the lowest ( t=2.98, P<0.05), and NRF2-OE could reverse the decrease in SOD enzyme content caused by VCD ( t=4.72, P<0.05). The GSH-Px enzyme content in the siNRF2 group was the lowest ( t=3.67, P<0.05), and NRF2-OE could reverse the decrease in antioxidant enzyme content caused by VCD ( t=2.71, P<0.05). The LC3B level was highest in the siNRF2 group ( t=2.45, P<0.05), and NRF2-OE was able to reverse the LC3B elevation caused by VCD ( t=9.64, P<0.05). In conclusion, NRF2 inhibits ROS induced autophagy, thereby playing a role in reducing ovarian granulosa cell damage, which may be a potential target for premature ovarian failure.

Objective:To compare the awakening effects of enriched environmental quantitative stimulation and conventional rehabilitation on patients with consciousness disorder after traumatic brain injury (TBI).Methods:A retrospective cohort study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 60 patients with consciousness disorder after TBI admitted to Hospital of Zhejiang Provincial Armed Police Corps from October 2021 to October 2022, including 38 males and 22 females, aged 26-72 years [(41.6±13.2)years]. The injury was located at the frontal and temporal lobe in 37 patients, at the brain stem in 9, and at the thalamus in 14. The types of injury included cerebral contusion and laceration in 36 patients and intracerebral hematomas in 24 patients. The Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) score on admission was 5-8 points in 11 patients, 9-12 in 34, and 13-15 in 15. Disease course was (19.2±5.4)days. A total of 30 patients received conventional rehabilitation treatment (conventional rehabilitation group) and 30 patients received enriched environmental quantitative stimulation on the basis of conventional rehabilitation treatment, which lasted 4 cycles in 28 days (quantitative stimulation group). The Coma Recovery Scale-Revised (CRS-R) score, Activities of Daily Living (ADL) score, and brainwave α/δ ratio (ADR) before treatment and at the second and fourth treatment cycles were compared between the two groups. The incidence of complications at the end of the fourth treatment cycle and the rate of favorable outcome of Glasgow Outcome Scale (GOS) at the last follow-up were compared between the two groups.Results:All the patients were followed up for 6-12 months [(8.3±2.5)months]. There were no significant differences in CRS-R score, ADL score, or brainwave ADR between the two groups before treatment ( P>0.05). At the second treatment cycle, they were (13.03±0.73)points, (14.83±0.95)points and 0.35±0.11 respectively in the quantitative stimulation group, which were all higher than those in the conventional rehabilitation group [(11.18±0.14)points, (8.74±0.43)points and 0.29±0.09 respectively] ( P<0.05). At the fourth treatment cycle, they were (17.83±0.23)points, (52.93±10.75)points and 0.44±0.11 respectively in the quantitative stimulation group, which were all higher than those in the conventional rehabilitation group [(13.67±0.35)points, (40.56±7.15)points and 0.37±0.07 respectively] ( P<0.05). The CRS-R score, ADL score, and brainwave ADR at the second treatment cycle were significantly higher than those before treatment, and they were even higher at the fourth treatment cycle than those at the second treatment cycle ( P<0.05). At the end of the fourth treatment cycle, the incidence of complications in the quantitative stimulation group was 13.3% (4/30), which was lower than that of the conventional rehabilitation group [36.7% (11/30)] ( P<0.05). At the last follow-up, the favorable outcome rate of GOS was 80.0% (24/30) in the quantitative stimulation group, which was superior to 66.7% (20/30) in the conventional rehabilitation group ( P<0.05). Conclusion:Compared with the conventional rehabilitation treatment, enriched environmental quantitative stimulation for patients with consciousness disorder after TBI achieves enhanced consciousness level, activity of daily life and electroencephal reactivity, together with decreased incidence of complications and improved prognosis.

Objective:To analyze the body composition and influencing factors of lean non-alcoholic fatty liver disease in population receiving health examination.Methods:This is a cross-sectional study. Between January 2020 and December 2021, 1 342 individuals who had complete and reliable results of liver transient elastography and body composition testing, with a body mass index (BMI)<24 kg/m 2 and who met the inclusion criteria, were selected from the physical examination population at the Health Management Center of Jiangsu Provincial People′s Hospital. The results of body composition analysis, blood biochemical indexes and liver examination were collected from the subjects for analysis. Method of inter-group comparison: quantitative data that conform to normal distribution were tested using independent sample t-test, while non-conforming data were tested using rank sum test; count data were tested using chi-square test. The binary logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the influencing factors of body composition in lean non-alcoholic fatty liver disease in health examinees. Results:The detection rate of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease was 13.3% in all participants, and it was significantly higher in men than that in women (23.3% (125/537) vs 6.6% (53/805)). The fasting blood glucose (5.15, 5.08 mmol/L), hemoglobin A1c (HbA 1c)(5.5%, 5.6%), triglyceride (TG)(1.70, 1.64 mmol/L), low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C)(3.37, 3.27 mmol/L), alanine aminotransferase (ALT)(27.0, 21.9 U/L), aspartate aminotransferase (AST)(24.1, 24.0 U/L), gamma-glutamyltransferase (31.4, 21.1 U/L), uric acid (UA)(391, 296 μmol/L), body fat percentage (23.9%, 33.7%), waist-to-hip ratio(0.90, 0.89) and visceral fat area (70.3, 97.0 cm 2) in men and women with lean nonalcoholic fatty liver disease were all higher than those in the population without fatty liver, while the density lipoprotein cholesterol (1.25, 1.32 mmol/L) was lower. Logistic regression analysis showed that BMI, HbA 1c, TG, UA and waist-to-hip ratio were risk factors for lean nonalcoholic fatty liver disease in men, while BMI, HbA 1c, TG, UA and body fat percentage were risk factors for lean nonalcoholic fatty liver disease in women (all P<0.05). Conclusion:BMI, HbA 1c, TG, UA, body fat percentage and waist-to-hip ratio are associated with the development of lean nonalcoholic fatty liver disease.

Objective:To investigate the optimal serum antibody titer in acute stage for the diagnosis of Mycoplasma pneumoniae (MP) infection by passive agglutination, and to evaluate the clinical diagnostic value of different antibody titers.Methods:A cross-sectional study.Eighty-eight pairs of clinical serum samples were collected from children with MP infection treated at the Department of Pediatrics in Shengjing Hospital of China Medical University from December 2016 to February 2017 and Children′s Hospital of Baotou in November 2019.The four-fold change of the double serum specific antibody titer was used as the gold standard, and the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was plotted.When detecting the single serum in acute stage, different antibody titers were used as positive criteria to evaluate their clinical application value in the diagnosis of MP infection and find the most appropriate serum antibody titer as the diagnostic cut-off value.Results:(1)When the serum specific antibody titer ≥1∶40 was used as the positive criterion, the sensitivity was 72.9%, the area under the ROC curve was 0.817, and the specificity was 87.5%, which might cause overdiagnosis.When the serum specific antibody titer ≥1∶160 was used as the positive criterion, the specificity was 97.5%, the area under the ROC curve was 0.775, and the sensitivity was 52.1%, which might cause missed diagnosis.When the serum specific antibody titer ≥1∶80 was used as the positive criterion, the sensitivity was 60.4%, the specificity was 97.5%, and the area under the ROC curve was 0.823, overall performing better compared with the said two criteria.(2)After the disease lasted at least 5 days, blood samples were collected.About 72.5% of the children had antibodies, and 60.0% of the children had antibody titers ≥1∶80.Conclusions:(1)When the passive agglutination method is used to detect MP infection, antibody titer ≥1∶80 is recommended as the diagnostic standard.However, in clinical practice, the diagnosis of MP infection depends on clinical and other laboratory test results.(2) It is appropriate to collect blood samples on 5-7 days of illness.If MP infection is clinically suspected, and an antibody titer of 1∶40 is also suggestive, it can perform cooperative diagnosis based on molecular biology lab results or retest at a shorter interval.
