Objective To analyze the death rate and life loss of injuries in Jinshan District of Shanghai from 1990 to 2023, and to provide a scientific basis for the formulation of injury prevention and control measures. Methods Excel 2010 was used to establish a database for injury death reports in Jinshan District from 1990 to 2023, and the crude mortality rate, standardized mortality rate, age-specific mortality rate, potential years of life lost (PYLL), rate of potential years of life lost (PYLLR) and standardized rate of potential years of life lost (SPYLLR) were calculated. Results From 1990 to 2023, the crude mortality rate due to injuries in Jinshan District was 52.25/100 000, while the standardized mortality rate was 36.95/100 000. Based on the standardized mortality rate, the top four causes of injury-related deaths were traffic accidents, falls, drowning, and suicide. Traffic accidents ranked first as the leading cause of death for both males (19.30/100 000) and females (8.41/100 000). The top cause of death for the 0-14 years old group was drowning, the 15-64 years old group was traffic accidents, and the 65 years old and above was falls. Over the 34-year period, according to SPYLLR, the top four causes of death for both genders were consistently traffic accidents, drowning, suicide, and falls. Conclusion From 1990 to 2023, traffic accidents, falls, drowning, and suicide have been the primary causes of injury-related deaths in Jinshan District, Shanghai. It is essential to develop targeted prevention and control strategies based on the specific characteristics of these injury-related fatalities.

Hearing loss is the most prevalent disabling disease. Cochlear implantation(CI) serves as the primary intervention for severe to profound hearing loss. This consensus systematically explores the value of genetic diagnosis in the pre-operative assessment and efficacy prognosis for CI. Drawing upon domestic and international research and clinical experience, it proposes an evidence-based medicine three-tiered prognostic classification system(Favorable, Marginal, Poor). The consensus focuses on common hereditary non-syndromic hearing loss(such as that caused by mutations in genes like GJB2, SLC26A4, OTOF, LOXHD1) and syndromic hereditary hearing loss(such as Jervell & Lange-Nielsen syndrome and Waardenburg syndrome), which are closely associated with congenital hearing loss, analyzing the impact of their pathological mechanisms on CI outcomes. The consensus provides recommendations based on multiple round of expert discussion and voting. It emphasizes that genetic diagnosis can optimize patient selection, predict prognosis, guide post-operative rehabilitation, offer stratified management strategies for patients with different genotypes, and advance the application of precision medicine in the field of CI.

The incomplete degradation of tumour cells by macrophages (Mϕ) is a contributing factor to tumour progression and metastasis, and the degradation function of Mϕ is mediated through phagosomes and lysosomes. In our preliminary experiments, we found that overactivation of NADPH oxidase 2 (NOX2) reduced the ability of Mϕ to degrade engulfed tumour cells. Above this, we screened out liquiritin from Glycyrrhiza uralensis Fisch, which can significantly inhibit NOX2 activity and inhibit tumours, to elucidate that suppressing NOX2 can enhance the ability of Mϕ to degrade tumour cells. We found that the tumour environment could activate the NOX2 activity in Mϕ phagosomes, causing Mϕ to produce excessive reactive oxygen species (ROS), thus prohibiting the formation of phagolysosomes before degradation. Conversely, inhibiting NOX2 in Mϕ by liquiritin can reduce ROS and promote phagosome-lysosome fusion, therefore improving the enzymatic degradation of tumour cells after phagocytosis, and subsequently promote T cell activity by presenting antigens. We further confirmed that liquiritin down-regulated the expression of the NOX2 specific membrane component protein gp91 phox, blocking its binding to the NOX2 cytoplasmic component proteins p67 phox and p47 phox, thereby inhibiting the activity of NOX2. This study elucidates the specific mechanism by which Mϕ cannot degrade tumour cells after phagocytosis, and indicates that liquiritin can promote the ability of Mϕ to degrade tumour cells by suppressing NOX2.

Objective :
To analyze the influencing factors associated with the coexistence of multidrug-resistantEscherichia coli(MDR-ECO) infection and active tuberculosis(ATB) in patients with lung infections.
Methods:
A total of 204 hospitalized patients with lung infections caused by MDR-ECO were enrolled. Among them, patients with coexisting ATB were identified and assigned to the observation group. Univariate and multivariate Logistic regression analysis were performed to identify the risk factors for the coexistence of MDR-ECO lung infection and ATB.
Results :
Factors such as patient age, neutrophil count, hemoglobin level, malignancy, rheumatoid arthritis, history of antibiotic exposure, and history of surgery within the past year were found to be influencing factors for the coexistence of MDR-ECO lung infection and ATB(allP<0.05). Specifically, advanced age(95%CI: 0.949-0.992,P=0.008), decreased neutrophils(95%CI: 0.750-0.922,P<0.001), and a history of antibiotic exposure(95%CI: 1.202-2.596,P=0.004) were identified as risk factors.
Conclusion
Some patients with MDR-ECO lung infections are prone to coexisting with ATB. Therefore, it is recommended to strengthen ATB screening among high-risk patients, including those at peak ages for susceptibility, with low neutrophil counts, and with a history of antibiotic exposure.

Objective:To observe the feelings of listening to music and the importance of music in the daily life of post-lingual deaf adults with cochlear implants, and to explore the relevant influencing factors.Methods:This was a cross-sectional survey study. From January 2021 to August 2021,the Music-Related Quality of Life Scale was used to evaluate the music needs and music experiences of 63 post-lingual deaf adults who met the inclusion criteria, including 27 males and 36 females, aged (40.7±12.3) years, at the time of surgery (36.8±13.1) years, and with a preoperative hearing aid ineffective time of (3.9±5.8) years. Indicators analyzed included age, duration of ineffective preoperative hearing aid wear, preoperative music preference, duration of postoperative cochlear implant use, current hearing aid modality, and auditory rehabilitation outcomes. Whether the six factors mentioned above constituted an influence on the subjects′ music listening was investigated using SPSS 25.0 statistical software.Results:All of the observations in the scale were correlated with a single factor. The two sub-dimensions of music experience section were related to the effect of auditory rehabilitation. In the importance section, the effect of auditory rehabilitation was the influential factor of the dimension of "participation importance", and the preoperative enjoyment of music was the relevant influential factor of the dimension of "perceived importance". There was a significant difference between the groups when they were grouped by the above factors ( P value<0.05), while there was no statistically significance between the groups when they were grouped by other factors ( P value>0.05). Conclusions:Post-lingual deaf adults show the need and attempt to listen to music after cochlear implantation. The effectiveness of auditory rehabilitation and the degree of music preference preoperatively are two important factors that influence music listening in implant recipients. Once the level of auditory communication has been restored to a certain degree, it is important to pay more attention to the needs of music for implant recipients and train them in time, especially for those with music preferences preoperatively.

Abstract: Objective To analyze epidemiological characteristics of influenza in Nanning from 2013 to 2022, to provide a reference for the prevention and control of influenza. Methods The data of influenza incidence and etiology surveillance results of the influenza virus in Nanning from 2013 to 2022 were collected to build a database. Data statistical analysis was performed through SPSS 21.0 and Joinpoint software to explore the epidemic trend and epidemic characteristics of the influenza virus in Nanning, and the seasonal index method was used to analyze the epidemic seasons. Results The reported incidence of influenza in Nanning showed an overall upward trend from 2013 to 2022, with an annual percent change (APC) of 47.63% (P<0.05), and an average annual incidence rate of 84.47/105 (ranging from 6.65/105 to 302.55/105). The peak months for influenza in Nanning were January, June, and December, with the seasonal indices of influenza all exceeding 100%, and the proportions of reported cases was 12.69%, 29.41%, and 25.97%, respectively. Both male and female incidence rates showed an upward trend without significant difference (P=0.66). The male-to-female case ratio was 1.24∶1, with the highest case distribution in the 5-<10 years age group, accounting for 31.17%, mainly among students, scattered children, and preschoolers. Xixiangtang District reported the largest influenza cases (21.12%), and Xingning District had the highest annual incidence (214.72/105). Influenza outbreaks mainly occurred in schools and kindergartens, accounting for 97.84%; primary schools accounted for 63.07% of the total. From 2013 to 2022, the dominant strains of influenza viruses alternated in Nanning, with a higher proportion of influenza A (H1N1) and (H3N2) viruses from Jan. 2013 to Mar. 2019. The dominant strains from April 2019 to Dec. 2022 were influenza A (H3N2) and B (Victoria) lineage. Conclusions The intensity of the influenza epidemic in Nanning City showed an increasing trend from 2013 to 2022, with obvious seasonality. The dominant subtypes of influenza viruses varied each year. The main affected groups were students and children, and the outbreaks mainly occurred in schools. Therefore, it is necessary to strengthen the prevention and control of influenza in schools, and the timely detection and handling of outbreaks.
