Objective: To analyze the institutional and regional differences in influenza vaccination for teachers and students, so as to provide a basis for influenza prevention and control in campus. Methods: Influenza vaccination data for teachers and students in Shandong Province from 2015 to 2024 were collected from Immunization Information Systems. Joinpoint regression models were used to calculate the annual percent change (APC) and average annual percent change (AAPC) in first-dose vaccination rates. Results: The vaccination coverages for the first dose of influenza vaccine among teachers in Shandong Province from 2015 to 2024 were 0.01%, 0.02%, 0.15%, 0.29%, 0.60%, 2.06%, 1.64%, 2.27%, 3.00%, and 2.43%, with a turning point in 2020. For preschools, primary/secondary schools, and higher education institutions, APCs during 2015-2020 were 163.36%, 162.09%, and 174.94%, respectively( P <0.01), declining to 9.53%, 9.92%, and 8.14% during 2020-2024( P >0.05). Corresponding AAPCs were 78.32%, 78.13%, and 81.61%( P <0.01). High, middle, and low GDP regions exhibited APCs of 173.84%, 162.75%, and 136.67% during 2015-2020( P <0.01) and 5.77%, 13.92%, and 11.86% during 2020-2024( P >0.05), with AAPCs of 79.42%, 81.23% , and 69.63%( P <0.01), respectively. Among students, vaccination coverage ranged from 1.59% to 7.20%. Preschool students showed no turning points, with an AAPC of 18.73%( P <0.01). Primary/secondary students had turning points in 2018 and 2022, APCs were -32.59% during 2015-2018( P <0.01), 48.45% during 2018-2022( P <0.01), and -26.25% during 2022-2024( P =0.04), yielding an AAPC of -2.32%( P =0.45). Higher education students had a turning point in 2020, with APCs of 63.27% during 2015-2020( P <0.01) and 4.31% during 2020-2024 ( P =0.77), and the AAPC was 33.79% during 2015-2024 ( P <0.01). High, middle, and low GDP regions for students showed no turning points, with AAPCs of 10.46%( P =0.18), 13.67%( P =0.01), and 10.42%( P = 0.05 ), respectively. Conclusions The influenza vaccination rate among teachers and students in Shandong Province has shown an upward trend from 2015 to 2024, but the overall level is still relatively low. However, continued efforts are needed to enhance health education on influenza and vaccination, to further improve the vaccination rate of teachers and students.

Objective To investigate the effect and mechanism of baicalin on blood lipid metabolism and immune function in rats with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). Methods Female rats fed with high-fat and high-sugar diet and male rats fed with ordinary diet were caged together to prepare pregnant rats, and the GDM rat model was established by intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin (35 mg/kg). GDM rats were randomly divided into a model group, a fasudil (FA) (RhoA/RocK inhibitor) group (10 mg/kg), low-dose (100 mg/kg) and high-dose (200 mg/kg) baicalin groups, and a high-dose baicalin combined with LPA (RhoA/RocK activator) group (200 mg/kg baicalin+1 mg/kg LPA ), with 12 rats in each group. Another 12 pregnant rats fed with high-fat and high-sugar diet were selected as the control group. After 2 weeks of corresponding drug intervention in each group, the level of fasting blood glucose (FBG) was detected by blood glucose meter. The level of fasting insulin (FINS) in serum was detected by ELISA, and the insulin resistance index (HOMA-IR) was calculated. The levels of alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) in serum, and the levels of immunomodulator tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α), interleukin 6 (IL-6), and IL-10 in peripheral blood were detected by the kit. The histopathological changes of liver were observed by HE staining. The proportion of T lymphocyte subsets in peripheral blood was detected by flow cytometry. The mRNA and protein expressions of Ras homolog gene family member A (RhoA), Rho associated coiled-coil forming protein kinase 1 (ROCK1), and ROCK2 in liver tissue were detected by real-time quantitative PCR and Western blot. Results Compared with the control group, the levels of FBG, FINS, HOMA-IR, ALT, AST, TG, TC, and LDL-C in serum, the levels of TNF-α, IL-6, the percentage of CD8⁺T cell in peripheral blood, and the mRNA and protein expression of RhoA, ROCK1, and ROCK2 in liver tissue in the model group were higher; the level of HDL-C in serum, the percentage of IL-10 levels, CD3⁺T cells, CD4⁺T cell, and CD4⁺T/CD8⁺T ratio in peripheral blood were lower. Compared with the model group, the levels of FBG, FINS, HOMA-IR, ALT, AST, TG, TC, and LDL-C in serum, the levels of TNF-α, IL-6, the percentage of CD8⁺T cell in peripheral blood, and the mRNA and protein expression of RhoA, ROCK1, and ROCK2 in liver tissue in the the FA group and low-dose and high-dose baicalin groups were lower; the level of HDL-C in serum, IL-10 level, the percentage of CD3⁺T cells, CD4⁺T cell, and CD4⁺T/CD8⁺T ratio in peripheral blood were higher. LPA could obviously weaken the improvement effects of baicalin on blood lipid metabolism and immune function in GDM rats. Conclusion Baicalin may improve blood lipid metabolism and immune function in GDM rats by inhibiting the RhoA/ROCK pathway.

Cemental tear is a rare and indetectable condition unless obvious clinical signs present with the involvement of surrounding periodontal and periapical tissues. Due to its clinical manifestations similar to common dental issues, such as vertical root fracture, primary endodontic diseases, and periodontal diseases, as well as the low awareness of cemental tear for clinicians, misdiagnosis often occurs. The critical principle for cemental tear treatment is to remove torn fragments, and overlooking fragments leads to futile therapy, which could deteriorate the conditions of the affected teeth. Therefore, accurate diagnosis and subsequent appropriate interventions are vital for managing cemental tear. Novel diagnostic tools, including cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT), microscopes, and enamel matrix derivatives, have improved early detection and management, enhancing tooth retention. The implementation of standardized diagnostic criteria and treatment protocols, combined with improved clinical awareness among dental professionals, serves to mitigate risks of diagnostic errors and suboptimal therapeutic interventions. This expert consensus reviewed the epidemiology, pathogenesis, potential predisposing factors, clinical manifestations, diagnosis, differential diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis of cemental tear, aiming to provide a clinical guideline and facilitate clinicians to have a better understanding of cemental tear.

BACKGROUND:Lower limb peri-knee muscle strength training and neuromuscular electrical stimulation are generally safe and effective rehabilitation methods for patellofemoral joint pain,but the mechanism of their intervention is still unclear. OBJECTIVE:To determine the effect of muscle strength training combined with neuromuscular electrical stimulation on pain,lower extremity function and biomechanical characteristics in patients with patellofemoral pain. METHODS:Thirty-seven patients with patellofemoral pain were randomly divided into muscle strength training combined with electrical stimulation group(trial group,n=19)and muscle strength training group(control group,n=18).Both groups underwent intervention training for 6 weeks,three times a week.The visual analog scale and anterior knee pain scale were used to evaluate the pain level and functional level of the knee.Kinematic and kinetics data during running were collected by using an infrared motion capture system and a three-dimensional force platform simultaneously.A two-way analysis of variance with repeated measures(group*time)was applied to analyze the data. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)After the intervention,the visual analog scale scores of the trial group and the control group were significantly decreased(P<0.001),and the anterior knee pain scale scores were significantly increased(Ptrial group<0.001,Pcontrol group=0.001)in the trial group and control group.The anterior knee pain scale scores of the trial group were significantly higher compared to the control group after the intervention(P=0.001).(2)The peak knee flexion angle(P=0.011),peak knee extension moment(P<0.001),the peak knee internal rotation moment(P=0.008),the peak patellofemoral stress(P<0.001)and the peak patellofemoral contact force(P<0.001)were significantly decreased in the trial and control groups during running after the intervention compared with those before the intervention.(3)In conclusion,both muscle strength training and muscle strength training combined with electrical stimulation training are helpful to improve the subjective pain and lower limb function of patellofemoral pain patients,enhance the movement pattern during running and reduce the stress of the patellofemoral joint.Compared with muscle strength training alone,muscle strength training combined with electrical stimulation can improve lower limb function more significantly.

Objective To explore the underlying mechanism of β2 adrenergic receptor(ADRB2)in fibrogenesis during wound healing.Methods Non-specific ADRB2 gene knockdown adeno-associated virus(AAV-ADRB2 group,6 mice)and control virus(AAV-NC group,6 mice)was injected randomly into the back skin of 12 mice for 21 days,a full-thickness skin defected wound healing murine model was established.Wound healing rates were recorded at the 1st,3rd,5th,and 7th day after operation.Histological examinations by H-E staining,Masson staining,and immunohistochemistry were conducted to observe wounded skin tissue structure,fibrosis,and α-SMA protein expression;quantitative PCR was employed to analyze ADRB2 and matrix metalloproteinase(MMP)mRNA levels;Western blotting was utilized to assess the protein expression levels of COL1A1,COL3A1,TGF-β1,and Smad3.Results On postoperative day 5 and 7,the wound healing rate of the AAV-ADRB2 group significantly decreased(P＜0.05),accompanied by a series pathological changes,including thickened epidermis,exaggerated inflammation,reduced fibroblast count,and inhibited collagen deposition;the α-SMA expression showed a significant decrease(P＜0.05),and the ratio of COL1A1 to COL3A1 decreased(P＜0.05);ADRB2 mRNA levels significantly decreased(P＜0.01),while MMP-1 and MMP-8 mRNA levels increased(P＜0.01);the protein levels of TGF-β1 and Smad3 exhibited a significant decrease(P＜0.05).Conclusions ADRB2 knockdown reduced fibrosis during wound healing and degenerated connective tissue content around the wound bed by inhibiting the TGF-β1/Smad3 signaling pathway,which leads to an increase in MMP mRNA levels and a decrease in the ratio of type Ⅰ to type Ⅲ collagen.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.

Objective:To observe the expression levels of related cytokines in the vitreous humor of eyes with rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) associated with lattice degeneration (LD).Methods:A clinical observational study. From May 2022 to February 2023, 43 patients of 43 eyes diagnosed with RRD, with or without accompanying LD, who underwent their first pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) at Zhongda Hospital Southeast University and The Affiliated Eye Hospital of Nanjing Medical University were included in the study. The patients were divided into two groups: RRD with LD (LD group), consisting of 27 patients with 27 eyes, and RRD without LD (Non-LD group), consisting of 16 patients with 16 eyes. Additionally, 6 patients (6 eyes) with idiopathic macular holes and 4 patients (4 eyes) with idiopathic epiretinal membranes during the same period were selected as the control group. Before initiating PPV and without intraocular perfusion, a 0.5 ml sample of undiluted vitreous fluid from the central portion was excised and aspirated. The concentrations of monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1), macrophage inflammatory protein-1 alpha (MIP)-1α, MIP-1β, interferon-γ-inducible protein 10 (IP-10), interleukin-6 (IL-6), IL-8, macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF), tumor necrosis factor-alpha-α, interferon-γ, intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM-1), vascular cell adhesion molecule-1, platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule 1 (PECAM-1), placental growth factor (PLGF) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in the vitreous fluid were quantitatively measured using the Luminex high-throughput multiplex assay technology. The comparison of cytokine expression levels between groups was performed using the Kruskal-Wallis rank sum test, with significance levels for post-hoc pairwise comparisons adjusted by DSCF methods.Results:The eyes of the patients in the LD group, Non-LD group, and control group showed statistically significant differences ( P<0.05) in the concentrations of IL-6 ( H=14.400), IL-8 ( H=13.610), MCP-1 ( H=12.050), VEGF ( H=9.920), MIP-1α ( H=6.620), IP-10 ( H=7.780), MIF ( H=12.920), PECAM-1 ( H=9.990), ICAM-1 ( H=8.070), and PLGF ( H=16.850). Upon pairwise comparison between groups, the vitreous fluid concentrations of IL-6, IL-8, and PLGF in the LD group were found to be significantly higher than those in the Non-LD group ( P<0.05). Conclusion:The expression levels of IL-6, IL-8, and PLGF are elevated in the vitreous fluid of eyes with RRD accompanied by LD.
