Objective: To analyze the disease burden of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and changes in its risk factors among residents in Zhejiang Province from 1990 to 2021, so as to identify key priorities for COPD prevention and control. Methods: Data on COPD mortality and disability-adjusted life years (DALY) for residents in Zhejiang Province from 1990 to 2021 were collected from the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) 2021 database. Standardized mortality and standardized DALY rate were calculated using the GBD 2021 world population standard structure. Premature mortality was computed via the life table method. The average annual percent change (AAPC) was applied to analyze trends in COPD mortality, DALY rate, and premature mortality. Changes in deaths of COPD risk factors were evaluated using population attributable fraction (PAF). Results: From 1990 to 2021, the standardized COPD mortality in Zhejiang Province decreased from 272.40/100 000 to 70.56/100 000 (AAPC=-4.395%), and the standardized DALY rate declined from 4 167.37/100 000 to 1 071.89/100 000 (AAPC=-4.396%). Similar downward trends were observed in both males (AAPC=-3.933%, -4.173%) and females (AAPC=-4.785%, -4.480%), all P<0.05. Crude mortality and DALY rates increased with age, and the crude mortality and DALY rates of various age groups in Zhejiang Province showed decreasing trends from 1990 to 2021 (all P<0.05). The premature mortality declined from 4.37% to 0.60% from 1990 to 2021 (AAPC=- 6.206%), with consistent trends across males and females (AAPC=- 6.144%, - 6.379%, all P<0.05). From 1990 to 2021, particulate matter pollution showed the largest reduction in PAF (- 56.76%), while ambient ozone pollution had the largest increase (103.07%) in Zhejiang Province. By 2021, smoking became the leading risk factor for deaths of COPD (PAF=43.32%). Conclusions The standardized mortality, standardized DALY rate, and premature mortality for COPD show consistent declining trends in Zhejiang Province from 1990 to 2021. However, risk factors such as smoking and ambient ozone pollution require intensified focus to further reduce disease burden of COPD.

Objective To explore the clinical utility of endoclip papilloplasty in endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography(ERCP).Methods A prospective study was conducted and selected 62 patients who underwent ERCP from November 2021 to November 2022.30 out of 32 patients who randomly underwent endoclip papilloplasty were successful.These patients were assigned to successful endoclip papilloplasty group(group A,n=30)or the duodenal papilla unclamping group(group B,n=30).The aim was to compare the difference in short-term and long-term complications between the two groups.Results The success rate of papillary plasty was 93.8%(30/32),with no statistically significant differences observed in the incidence of postoperative pancreatitis,postoperative hemorrhage after ERCP,and postoperative cholangitis between the two groups(P>0.05).The duodenal perforation rate was 0.There were no significant differences between the two groups in terms of total cholangitis incidence and recurrence rate of calculus of common bile duct within 1 year(P>0.05).However,there was a statistical difference in terms of total the incidence of cholangitis+calculus of common bile duct recurrence within 1 year(P<0.05).Conclusion The endoclip papilloplasty exhibits a high success rate and safety and feasibility procedure reducing long-term recurrence rate of cholangitis and calculus of common bile duct in endoscopic papillary large balloon dilation(EPLBD)procedure.

Objective A scoping review was performed to identify the effectiveness,characteristics,and behavior change techniques of intervention strategies for reducing sedentary behavior among older adults.Methods This study was guided by the scope review methodology framework proposed by Arksey and O'Malley.A comprehensive search of databases was conducted in PubMed,Embase,PsycINFO,Cochrane Library,CINAHL,and Sedentary Behavior Research Database to collect the literature on intervention strategies for reducing sedentary behavior among older adults.The search period was from the establishment of the databases to September 20,2022.The study selection and data extraction were performed independently by 2 reviewers.The resulting data were analyzed and arranged using the descriptive analysis and the social network analysis.Results A total of 31 separate studies published between 2011 and 2022 were included in this study.Most intervention strategies were developed based on the Social Cognitive Theory.Almost all sedentary behavior intervention strategies targeted the psychological and behavioral levels of the individual.The main contents of the intervention strategies included goals and plans,feedback and monitoring,natural consequences,social support,repetition and substitution.In the social network analysis,the behavior change techniques that ranked high in degree centrality included goal-setting(behavior),self-monitoring of behavior,action planning,information about health consequences,and feedback on behavior.These intervention strategies could reduce sedentary time from 23 to 151 min/day.Conclusion Domestic nursing researchers should pay attention to sedentary behavior in older adults,and develop intervention strategies for reducing sedentary behavior in local contexts based on the effectiveness,characteristics,and behavior change techniques of the existing sedentary behavior intervention strategies.

Objective:To explore the molecular mechanism of clinical bleeding in a family with hereditary coagulation factor Ⅺ (FⅪ) deficiency caused by a novel mutation of the coagulation factor Ⅺ (FⅪ) gene.Methods:A male proband with hereditary coagulation factor XI deficiency who was admitted to Yuncheng Central Hospital Affiliated to Shanxi Medical University due to "adenoid hypertrophy" on February 23, 2023 and his family members (5 people in 3 generations) were selected as research subjects. The clinical data of the proband and family members were collected; the relevant coagulation indexes of all members were tested; those with abnormal coagulation indexes (prolonged activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), normal thrombin time (PT) and fibrinogen (Fib)) were selected for APTT correction experiment; those with corrected Rosner index (RI) less than 10% were selected to detect FⅪ activity (FⅪ:C) by one-step method, FⅪ antigen (FⅪ:Ag) by ELISA method, and whole exon sequence by Illumina sequencing method. New mutation sites were rated according to the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics (ACMG) related variation rating guidelines, and bioinformatics software was used to predict the impact of new mutations on protein structure and function.Results:The APTT of the proband, his father and his daughter were all prolonged and their RI were all less than 10%. Further tests revealed that FⅪ:C and FⅪ:Ag of the three were all decreased. Illumina sequencing revealed a new frameshift mutation c.1223dupC (P.Ser409Leufs*32) in exon 11 of FⅪ of the three people, and a missense mutation c.G1253T (p.Gly418Val) in exon 11 of FⅪ of the proband′s father. ACMG rated the new mutation as pathogenic, and c.G1253T was a reported possible pathogenic mutation.Conclusion:The heterozygous frameshift mutation c.1223dupC (P.Ser409Leufs*32) in exon 11 of FⅪ may be the main molecular mechanism of the disease in this family.

The establishment of an intelligent audit system for hospital medical insurance is crucial for standardizing irrational practices and curbing the unwarranted escalation of medical insurance costs. A tertiary hospital has developed comprehensive prescription review rules in terms of indications, nutritional risk assessments, pain score evaluations, drug sensitivity test results, and target patient populations. When using medical insurance funds for settlement, both systematic and manual reviews are conducted, and three-level intervention measures such as " prompt, review, and interception" are implemented based on prescription issues. After the system was put into use, the hospital′s in-process information system supervision mode shifted from the previous focus on prompts to focus on audits. The medical insurance intelligent audit system provided timely prompts and interventions, and the number of unreasonable medical insurance prescriptions and deductions from medical insurance sampling prescriptions significantly decreased ( P<0.001), while the number of medical insurance medication prescription audits increased ( P<0.001). The application of the intelligent medical insurance medication audit system has improved the efficiency of prescription auditing and ensured the rationality of the use of medical insurance funds.

Objective:To learn about the operation of fluoride reduction and water improvement projects, the current situation of water fluoride level and the changing trend of fluorosis in drinking water-borne endemic fluorosis areas in Shaanxi Province, and to evaluate the effect of prevention and control measures.Methods:From March 2014 to December 2021, 15 endemic villages in drinking water-borne endemic fluorosis areas of Dali, Dingbian, Jingbian, Jingyang and Liquan counties in Shaanxi Province were selected as monitoring villages to investigate the operation of water improvement projects. Water samples were collected, and the water fluoride level was detected according to the "Standard Examination Methods for Drinking Water - Nonmetal Parameters" (GB/T 5750.5-2006). "Diagnosis of Dental Fluorosis" (WS/T 208-2011) was done to detect dental fluorosis in all children aged 8 - 12 who were born and lived in the monitoring village. Using "Diagnostic Standard for Endemic Skeletal Fluorosis" (WS/T 192-2008) and "Determination of Fluoride in Urine - Ion Selective Electrode Method" (WS/T 89-2015), X-ray examination and urine fluoride level test were performed on adults over 25 years old who had lived in the monitoring village for more than 5 years, respectively.Results:From 2014 to 2021, a total of 122 water improvement projects were investigated, all of which were in normal operation. The qualified rate of water fluoride increased from 81.25% (13/16) in 2014 to 100.00% (11/11) in 2021. A total of 5 595 children aged 8 - 12 were examined, 1 790 children with dental fluorosis were detected, with a detection rate of 31.99%. The detection rate of dental fluorosis in children decreased from 52.05% (304/584) in 2014 to 9.68% (93/961) in 2021, showing an overall downward trend (χ 2trend = 533.76, P < 0.001). In 2014, 791 adults were examined, and 256 patients with skeletal fluorosis were detected, the detection rate was 32.36%. In 2019, 770 adults were examined, and 88 patients with skeletal fluorosis were detected, with a detection rate of 11.43%. The detection rate of skeletal fluorosis in adults in 2019 was lower than that in 2014, and the difference was statistically significant (χ 2 = 99.54, P < 0.001). In 2014, 754 adult urine samples were collected, and the geometric mean of urine fluoride was 2.571 mg/L. In 2019, 770 adult urine samples were collected, and the geometric mean of urine fluoride was 1.292 mg/L. The geometric mean of urine fluoride in adults in 2019 was lower than that in 2014, and the difference was statistically significant ( Z = - 12.74, P < 0.001). Conclusions:From 2014 to 2021, the water improvement projects in drinking water-borne endemic fluorosis areas in Shaanxi Province are running normally, and the qualified rate of water fluoride has increased. The incidence of dental fluorosis in children and skeletal fluorosis in adults has decreased. In the later stage, it is necessary to continuously strengthen the monitoring and management of water improvement projects to prevent the rebound of water fluoride from causing residents' illness.

Objective:To investigate the correlation factors of complete clinical response in idiopathic inflammatory myopathies(IIMs)patients receiving conventional treatment.Methods:Patients diagnosed with IIMs hospitalized in Peking University People's Hospital from January 2000 to June 2023 were in-cluded.The correlation factors of complete clinical response to conventional treatment were identified by analyzing the clinical characteristics,laboratory features,peripheral blood lymphocytes,immunological indicators,and therapeutic drugs.Results:Among the 635 patients included,518 patients finished the follow-up,with an average time of 36.8 months.The total complete clinical response rate of IIMs was 50.0％(259/518).The complete clinical response rate of dermatomyositis(DM),anti-synthetase syn-drome(ASS)and immune-mediated necrotizing myopathy(IMNM)were 53.5％,48.9％and 39.0％,respectively.Fever(P=0.002)and rapid progressive interstitial lung disease(RP-ILD)(P=0.014)were observed much more frequently in non-complete clinical response group than in complete clinical re-sponse group.The aspartate transaminase(AST),lactate dehydrogenase(LDH),D-dimer,erythrocyte sedimentation rate(ESR),C-reaction protein(CRP)and serum ferritin were significantly higher in non-complete clinical response group as compared with complete clinical response group.As for the treat-ment,the percentage of glucocorticoid received and intravenous immunoglobin(IVIG)were significantly higher in non-complete clinical response group than in complete clinical response group.Risk factor analysis showed that IMNM subtype(P=0.007),interstitial lung disease(ILD)(P=0.001),eleva-ted AST(P=0.012),elevated serum ferritin(P=0.016)and decreased count of CD4+T cells in peripheral blood(P=0.004)might be the risk factors for IIMs non-complete clinical response.Conclu-sion:The total complete clinical response rate of IIMs is low,especially for IMNM subtype.More effec-tive intervention should be administered to patients with ILD,elevated AST,elevated serum ferritin or decreased count of CD4+T cells at disease onset.

Objective:To screen the interacting protein of ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme E2S(UBE2S)and construct the hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC)based on UBE2S interacting protein prognosis model(UIPM),and to discuss the value of UIPM in assessing the prognosis of the HCC patients.Methods:Co-immunoprecipitation(Co-IP)was used to screen the protein complexes binding to Flag-UBE2S.After validation by sodium dodecyl sulphate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis(SDS-PAGE)and Western blotting methods;liquid chromatography-mass spectrometer(LC-MS)was used to identify the UBE2S interacting proteins;Gene Ontology(GO)functional enrichment analysis and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes(KEGG)signaling pathway enrichment analysis were conducted on these proteins;the prognosis-related proteins from The Cancer Genome Atlas(TCGA)were cross-referenced with UBE2S interacting proteins by survival package of R software;the key proteins were extracted through LASSO regression analysis to build the UIPM;the prognostic model risk scoring formula was established.The HCC patients in TCGA were divided into high risk group and low risk group based on median value of the risk scores.The predictive accuracy of UIPM was evaluated by receiver operating characteristic curve(ROC),and the predictive accuracy was further validated by International Cancer Genome Consortium(ICGC)Database;univariate regression analysis and multivariate Cox regression analysis were used to detect whether the UIPM risk score was an independent prognostic factor for HCC.Furthermore,the nomogram model was built.Results:A total of 97 UBE2S interacting proteins were identified through Co-IP combined with LC-MS analysis.The GO functional enrichment analysis and KEGG signaling pathway enrichment analysis results showed that the interacting proteins were closely associated with cysteine-type endopeptidase activity,oxidative stress,and cell death.The TCGA revealed 5 163 HCC prognosis-related proteins;after intersecting with UBE2S interacting proteins,40 prognosis-related interacting proteins were found.Seven key proteins were determined through LASSO regression analysis,including UBE2S,heat shock protein family A member 8(HSPA8),heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein H1(HNRNPH1),chaperonin containing TCP1 subunit 3(CCT3),eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2 subunit 1(EIF2S1),receptor for activated C kinase 1(RACK1),and actin related protein 2/3 complex subunit 4(ARPC4),and the UIPM was constructed.There was significant difference in survival rate of the patients between high risk group and low risk group(P<0.05).The ROC curve analysis results showed the area under ROC curve(AUC)values of UIPM for predicting 1-year,2-year,and 3-year survival risk scores of the HCC patients were all greater than 0.7,indicating the model had high predictive accuracy.This was also confirmed by ICGC Database data.The univariate and multivariate Cox regression analysis results showed that the UIPM risk score was an independent prognostic risk factor for the HCC patients(P<0.05).The nomogram results showed good consistency between predicted survival rate and actual survival rate of the patient.Conclusion:A total of 97 interacting proteins that interact with UBE2S may promote the occurence and devolopment of HCC through oxidative stress and dysregulation of ferroptosis pathways.The UIPM risk score is an independent risk factor for the prognosis of HCC and can be used to predict the outcomes of the patients.UBE2S,HSPA8,HNRNPH1,CCT3,EIF2S1,RACK1,and ARPC4 could be regarded as the new biomarkers and therapeutic targets for HCC.
