Objective: To analyze the epidemiological characteristics and influencing factors of severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome (SFTS) in Zhejiang Province from 2019 to 2023, so as to provide the reference for strengthening SFTS prevention and control. Methods: Data on laboratory-confirmed SFTS cases in Zhejiang Province from 2019 to 2023 were collected through the Infectious Disease Reporting Information System of Chinese Disease Prevention and Control Information System. Meteorological data, geographic environment and socioeconomic factors during the same period were collected from the fifth-generation European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts, Geospatial Data Cloud, and Zhejiang Statistical Yearbook, respectively. Descriptive epidemiological methods were used to analyze the epidemiological characteristics of SFTS from 2019 to 2023, and a Bayesian spatio-temporal model was constructed to analyze the influencing factors of SFTS incidence. Results: A total of 578 SFTS cases were reported in Zhejiang Province from 2019 to 2023, with an annual average incidence of 0.23/105. The peak period was from May to July, accounting for 52.60%. There were 309 males and 269 females, with a male-to-female ratio of 1.15∶1. The cases were mainly aged 50-<80 years, farmers, and in rural areas, accounting for 82.53%, 77.34%, and 75.43%, respectively. Taizhou City and Shaoxing City reported more SFTS cases, while Shaoxing City and Zhoushan City had higher annual average incidences of SFTS. The Bayesian spatio-temporal interaction model showed good goodness of fit. The results showed that mean temperature (RR=1.626, 95%CI: 1.111-2.378) and mean wind speed (RR=1.814, 95%CI: 1.321-2.492) were positively correlated with SFTS risk, while altitude (RR=0.432, 95%CI: 0.230-0.829) and population density (RR=0.443, 95%CI: 0.207-0.964) were negatively correlated with SFTS risk. Conclusions SFTS in Zhejiang Province peaks from May to July. Middle-aged and elderly people and farmers are high-risk populations. Taizhou City, Shaoxing City, and Zhoushan City are high-incidence areas. Mean temperature, mean wind speed, altitude, and population density can all affect the risk of SFTS incidence.

Objective To construct and evaluate a prognostic model for clear cell renal cell carcinoma(ccRCC)based on preoperative lipid ratios, cM0(i+)staging, and other clinical characteristics, so as to provide a precise tool for clinical prognosis assessment. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 215 ccRCC patients treated in our hospital during May 2014 and May 2023. Lipid ratios were calculated using preoperative lipid data, and patients were divided into cM0(i+)stage or cM0 stage according to postoperative circulating tumor cells(CTCs)test results. The optimal lipid ratio and cutoff value were selected using receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curves and the X-tile method. Patients were subdivided into three groups based on the level of the low-density lipoprotein cholesterol to non-low-density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio(LNLR)and cM0(i+)staging:Group A [LNLR＞1.68 and diagnosed with cM0(i+)], Group B [LNLR＞1.68 or diagnosed with cM0(i+)], and Group C(LNLR ≤1.68 and diagnosed with cM0). Kaplan-Meier survival analysis was used to plot survival curves for patients in different groups. The log-rank test was employed to compare differences in recurrence-free survival(RFS)among the subgroups. Multivariate Cox regression analysis was conducted to identify the independent risk factors influencing RFS, and a nomogram prediction model was constructed based on these results. The predictive performance of the model was validated using ROC curves, calibration curves, and decision curves. Results ROC curves were plotted for lipid markers, and LNLR was identified as the most predictive for RFS. Its optimal cutoff point was 1. 68. Patients in Group A experienced a significantly shorter postoperative RFS. Multivariate Cox regression analysis identified preoperative LNLR, cM0(i+)staging, pathological grade, and stage as independent risk factors for RFS. A nomogram model was constructed based on these risk factors. The area under the ROC curve(AUC)for 1-, 3-, and 5-year RFS was 0.896(95% CI:0.8121-0.9627), 0.890(95%CI:0.7879-0.9641), and 0.870(95%CI:0.7697-0.9526), indicating good discriminatory ability and predictive performance. Calibration plots demonstrated good agreement between predicted and actual outcomes. Clinical decision curve analysis showed high clinical net benefit. Conclusion Preoperative LNLR level is an independent risk factor for RFS in ccRCC patients. The prognostic prediction model based on LNLR, cM0(i+)staging, patient pathological grade, and staging demonstrates good predictive performance for RFS and holds potential clinical application value.

Objective: To investigate the epidemiological characteristics and influencing factors for hand, foot, and mouth disease (HFMD) incidence in Binzhou City, Shandong Province, so as to provide the evidence for developing HFMD prevention and control strategies. Methods: Data on HFMD cases in Binzhou City from 2017 to 2023 were collected through the Infectious Disease Reporting Information System of Chinese Disease Prevention and Control Information System. Meteorological data during the same period were collected from the fifth-generation European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts. The incidence of HFMD was calculated, and the temporal, population, and regional distribution characteristics of HFMD were analyzed descriptively. Bayesian spatiotemporal model was used to analyze the influencing factors for HFMD incidence Results: From 2017 to 2023, a total of 17 314 HFMD cases were reported in Binzhou City, with an annual average reported incidence of 62.57/105. The incidence peak was from June to September, and a secondary peak appeared from October to November in some years. The annual average reported incidences were higher in Bincheng District and Yangxin County, which were 107.41/105 and 72.95/105, respectively. There were 10 461 males and 6 853 females, with a male-to-female ratio of 1.53∶1. The age was mainly 1-3 years, with 11 713 cases accounting for 67.65%. Bayesian spatiotemporal model analysis showed that the risk of HFMD incidence had obvious seasonality and regionality. From 2017 to 2019 and in 2021, the peaks occurred in weeks 24-27 and 44-47 each year, with RR values of 1.771-6.747. From 2022 to 2023, it showed a single peak distribution. The RR values were all >1 in Bincheng District, Yangxin County, and Huimin County. Average temperature (RR=1.092, 95%CI: 1.080-1.105) and average relative humidity (RR=1.015, 95%CI: 1.008-1.022) were positively correlated with the risk of HFMD incidence, while average wind speed (RR=0.749, 95%CI: 0.655-0.856) was negatively correlated with the risk of HFMD incidence. Conclusions HFMD in Binzhou City mainly occurs in summer and in central areas. Males and children aged 1-3 years are high-risk populations. The risk of HFMD incidence increases with the increase of average temperature and average relative humidity, and decreases with the increase of average wind speed.

By using a strategy of leveraging the ability of metal-organic frameworks(MOFs)materials to precisely regulate the spatial orientation of cyclodextrins(CD),a polystyrene-modified γ-cyclodextrin metal-organic frameworks(PS-CD-MOFs)capillary coating was established and applied to the chiral separation of amino acids in open-tubular capillary electrochromatography(OT-CEC)based on the excellent film-forming property of polystyrene(PS).Characterization results by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy(FT-IR),X-ray diffraction(XRD)indicated that PS was successfully grafted onto the surface of CD-MOFs.The modification significantly improved the structural stability and thermal stability of CD-MOFs while maintaining the integrity of the MOFs.The PS-CD-MOFs coated capillary electrophoresis system exhibited excellent performance in separating dansylated amino acid enantiomers(Dns-D,L-AAs).Specifically,under the optimal separation conditions(Sodium dodecyl sulfate/boric acid buffer system,20 cm capillary,and 10 kV effective voltage),good separation was achieved for D,L-methionine(D,L-Met)and D,L-serine(D,L-Ser).Further quantitative analysis showed that Dns-D,L-Met presented a good linear relationship in the concentration range of 10.0-1500.0 μmol/L,with a correlation coefficient close to 0.998,demonstrating high sensitivity and repeatability.Not only did it overcome the problem that traditional CD(used as additives in capillary electrophoresis)could not precisely control the spatial orientation of chiral resolvents,but also it solved the issues of insufficient stability and bonding amount of CD-MOFs coatings by utilizing the excellent film-forming property of polymers on the inner wall of capillaries.This study provided an efficient and controllable new strategy for construction of chiral separation stationary phases.

Objective:To explore and evaluate the effectiveness of the new "D 3-teaching" mode in surgical training for ophthalmology standardized residency training. Methods:A total of 40 residents at the Eye Center of The Second Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University School of Medicine who participated in the standardized residency training program in Zhejiang Province from September 2020 to June 2024 were selected as the "D 3-teaching" group. This group received an innovative surgical training mode integrating digital resources, three-dimensional teaching, and dry lab simulation. Moreover, another 42 residents who had completed the standardized training program in the 2018 and 2019 were selected as the traditional teaching group. This group received traditional teaching methods involving theoretical lectures, text- and image-based teaching, and video demonstrations. The effectiveness of both teaching modes was assessed by comparing the pass rates of examinations, ICO-OSCAR skill mastery rates, learning periods, and satisfaction survey. Results:After training, there was no significant difference in the pass rates between the two groups. However, the skill mastery rate in the "D 3-teaching" group was significantly higher than that of the traditional teaching group (28/40, 70.00% vs. 15/42, 35.71%, χ2=9.66, P=0.002). Additionally, the learning period in the "D 3-teaching" group was significantly shorter than that of the traditional teaching group [(13.14±5.91) months vs. (21.33±7.73) months, t=3.88, P<0.001]. Furthermore, the scores for satisfaction with all teaching parameters in the "D 3-teaching" group were significantly higher than those in the traditional teaching group. Conclusions:The "D 3-teaching" mode is an innovative surgical teaching method in ophthalmology standardized residency training that significantly improves trainees' skill acquisition, enhances training outcomes, shortens the learning period, and has received high recognition from trainees. This mode is worthy of wider application and promotion.

Objective To evaluate the changes of perivascular space(PVS)in patients with subacute ischemic stroke(IS),as well as the relationship between PVS and cognitive dysfunction in IS patients,and to analyze the relationship between PVS indicators and cognitive function in subacute IS patients of different ages.Methods A total of 44 healthy controls(HC)and 39 patients with subacute IS were prospectively included.Automated quantitative analysis of MRI data was conducted to determine pPVS in the white matter and subcortical regions.Differences in pPVS between patients with subacute IS and HC were compared.Correlations between age,pPVS,and cognitive dysfunction were analyzed and modeled.Results Compared with the HC,the white matter pPVS in patients with subacute IS was significantly reduced(t=-2.21,P=0.031).In patients with subacute IS,the white matter pPVS showed a significant positive correlation with lesion volume(r=0.42,P=0.030)and mini-mental state examination(MMSE)scores(r=0.44,P=0.018).Both white matter pPVS(r=-0.42,P=0.010)and MMSE scores(r=-3.82,P=0.000 7)were negatively correlated with age.When age was over 61.35 years,there was a positive correlation between the white matter pPVS and MMSE scores.Conclusion PVS are closely related to cognitive impairment in patients with subacute IS.Age is a significant modulating factor in the relationship between PVS and cognitive dysfunction.Early monitoring of PVS and targeting it for intervention may positively impact the improvement of cognitive dysfunction following IS.

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the efficacy of sulbactam-durlobactam combined with meropenem in treating carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii(CRAB)pulmonary infection.METHODS A total of 16 patients treated at China-Japan Friendship Hospital from Jan.1,2025 to Jun.1,2025 were included.Retrospective analy-sis was conducted on patients'basic situation,preliminary treatment regimens,infection-related diagnoses,etiolo-gy and clinical outcomes.Therapeutic drug monitoring(TDM)for sulbactam was also performed.RESULTS By the end of the treatment course,13 patients achieved etiological eradication of CRAB and clinical improvement,while 1 patient experienced CRAB recurrence within one month.Three patients showed treatment failure.TDM for sulbactam was performed in 13 patients.Except for one slightly lower,all achieved trough plasma concentra-tions above the minimum inhibitory concentration(MIC)(100％T＞MIC,MIC=4 mg/L based on clinical breakpoints).Dosage adjustments based on plasma concentrations were made for 4 patients,with 3 receiving re-duced doses and 1 receiving an increased dose.CONCLUSIONS Sulbactam-durlobactam combined with meropenem demonstrates superior efficacy in treating CRAB compared to other regimens.Under the recommended dosage,all patients can achieve the PK/PD target for sulbactam.

The ocean plays a critical role in the global carbon cycle,and base on the"dual carbon"goals,ocean carbon sinks have received widespread attention.Shellfish aquaculture is one of the most important sources of carbon sinks in fisheries,which has an important impact on the offshore carbon cy-cle.As global temperature rises and ocean acidification intensifies,the capacity of the ocean to absorb CO2 will change.However,the effects of high temperature on the physiology and transcriptome related to carbon metabolism in Mytilus coruscus are not clear enough.This study investigated the effects of high temperatures on the total carbon content,carbon metabolism,antioxidant-related enzyme activities,and the transcriptome of Mytilus coruscus.The results showed that high temperature significantly inhibited the activities of hexokinase and pyruvate kinase,increased carbonic anhydrase activity(P＜0.05),de-creased the ATP content of digestive glands(P＜0.05),and affected glycolysis and the tricarboxylic acid cycle,leading to a significant decrease in the mussel's ability to sequester carbon.High temperature re-sulted in significant(P＜0.05)increases in the levels of reactive oxygen species and malondialdehyde,and enhanced the activities of superoxide dismutase and catalase.Observations by transmission electron microscopy showed that high temperatures damaged the subcellular structure of the digestive gland in Mytilus coruscus,resulting in the shrinkage of the nucleolus,swelling of the endoplasmic reticulum,and a significant reduction in the mitochondrial cristae.Comparative transcriptomic analysis showed that the upregulated DEGs were mainly enriched in protein processing in the endoplasmic reticulum,antigen pro-cessing and presentation,and MAPK signaling pathway.The downregulated DEGs were mainly enriched in necroptosis,DNA replication,and the NF-kappa B signaling pathway.In antioxidant-related DEGs,the upregulated DEGs include vitamin K epoxide reductase,peroxidases,heat shock protein 105 kD,heat shock protein 70 kD,and superoxide dismutase;The downregulated DEGs mainly included NADPH oxidase,glutathione reductase,cytochrome b-245,cytochrome P450,and quinone reductase.The up-regulated genes enriched in the carbon metabolism pathway included chitinase,phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate 3-kinase,phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase,galactokinase,and inositol trisphosphate 3-kinase.The downregulated genes included aldose-1-epimerase,carbonic anhydrase,galactose mutaro-tase,acyl-CoA synthetase,alcohol dehydrogenase,and hexokinase.In conclusion,high temperature has an inhibitory effect on the activities of enzymes and the expression of genes related to carbon metabolism in Mytilus coruscus.The results of this study are intended to provide a scientific basis for the healthy de-velopment of mussel aquaculture and the assessment of carbon sinks.

The scientific research and innovation capabilities of medical students are intrinsically linked to the sustained and high-quality development of national healthcare initiatives.Cultivating outstanding medi-cal students with independent scientific capabilities and innovative consciousness is a critical component in the education and training of high-level medical professionals.Our investigation revealed that within the imperfections of the cultivating model,some faculty and students at medical schools have an insufficient understanding of scientific research and innovation and lack motivation for engaging in such activities,which hinder the progression of scientific research activities.Consequently,we initiated a teaching practice and exploratory study on the"tutorial system"aimed at fostering medical students'scientific research and innovation abilities.Based on the principle of"research informing teaching,teaching and research advan-cing together,"this study implements a"tutorial system"coordinated by tutors,supplemented by graduate and undergraduate student mentors,to cultivate innovative thinking,stimulate interest in scientific re-search,and enhance practical and research skills among medical students.Through collaborative efforts within"scientific research innovation teams,"various educational methods—including preliminary re-search,in-class and extracurricular activities,intra-group and inter-group interactions,and theoretical and practical applications—are employed to improve and strengthen the cultivation of medical students'scientif-ic research and innovation abilities.This study aims to provide valuable references for optimizing medical education management systems and enhancing the quality of medical student training.
