ObjectiveTo investigate the influenza vaccination coverage among kindergarten and primary school children in Zhejiang Province in 2023 and analyze the influencing factors, and to provide the basis for improving the effect of influenza vaccination in children. MethodsA multi-stage random cluster sampling method was used to select 3 681 parents of children from 10 primary schools and kindergartens based on economic level and geographical distribution in Zhejiang Province, who participated in an online questionnaire survey, including basic information about the children and their parents, parents’ knowledge about influenza, and their willingness to vaccination. ResultsAmong the 3 681 parents surveyed, 33.82% (1 245/3 681) reported that their children received influenza vaccination in 2023. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that factors contributing to children’s influenza vaccination included both parents [adjusted OR (95%CI): 1.56 (1.32‒1.84)] and children [6.04 (5.04‒7.27)] having a history of influenza vaccination, parents’ conviction the influenza vaccine could protect children from severe diseases [1.43 (1.19‒1.74)], and the willingness of most parents would let their children get vaccinated [1.40 (1.13‒1.74)]. In contrast, vaccine hesitancy among parents [0.55 (0.43‒0.69)] and the belief that influenza is just a common cold [0.80 (0.65‒1.00)] were hindering factors. ConclusionThe influenza vaccination coverage among children is insufficient. Both the vaccination history of parents and children, as well as parents’ correct understanding of influenza and the effectiveness of influenza vaccine, significantly influence the influenza vaccination status in children. Efforts to address vaccine hesitancy and misconceptions about influenza are essential to improve vaccination rates.

T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) is a highly aggressive hematologic malignancy with a poor prognosis, despite advancements in treatment. Many patients struggle with relapse or refractory disease. Investigating the role of the super-enhancer (SE) regulated gene ubiquitin-specific protease 20 (USP20) in T-ALL could enhance targeted therapies and improve clinical outcomes. Analysis of histone H3 lysine 27 acetylation (H3K27ac) chromatin immunoprecipitation sequencing (ChIP-seq) data from six T-ALL cell lines and seven pediatric samples identified USP20 as an SE-regulated driver gene. Utilizing the Cancer Cell Line Encyclopedia (CCLE) and BloodSpot databases, it was found that USP20 is specifically highly expressed in T-ALL. Knocking down USP20 with short hairpin RNA (shRNA) increased apoptosis and inhibited proliferation in T-ALL cells. In vivo studies showed that USP20 knockdown reduced tumor growth and improved survival. The USP20 inhibitor GSK2643943A demonstrated similar anti-tumor effects. Mass spectrometry, RNA-Seq, and immunoprecipitation revealed that USP20 interacted with hypoxia-inducible factor 1 subunit alpha (HIF1A) and stabilized it by deubiquitination. Cleavage under targets and tagmentation (CUT&Tag) results indicated that USP20 co-localized with HIF1A, jointly modulating target genes in T-ALL. This study identifies USP20 as a therapeutic target in T-ALL and suggests GSK2643943A as a potential treatment strategy.

Osteoarthritis(OA),a common age-related chronic disease,is characterized by degenerative changes in the joints and surrounding tissues.Traditionally,research on OA has primarily focused on the pathological changes in articular cartilage and its repair.However,with the advancements in animal disease modeling in recent years,especially the widespread use of spatiotemporally specific transgenic mouse models,scholars have gradually come to realize that the subchondral bone also plays an important role in the occurrence and development of OA.That is,the pathological changes in articular cartilage and bone mutually affect and promote each other,jointly driving the progression of OA,involving such pathological processes as vascular invasion,ectopic calcification,nerve growth,and the occurrence of pain.Given the complexity of cartilage-bone pathological relationship,it is difficult to conduct in-depth research on subchondral bone pathology using clinical human samples,or to simulate the pathological processes of OA through in vitro cell experiments.Therefore,animal models play an irreplaceable role in investigating the pathological mechanisms of OA and developing clinical drugs.This review,in addition to providing an overview of OA animal models,synthesizes the latest progress in animal experimental research on OA,highlighting the active role of the cartilage-bone pathological relationship in OA progression.These new findings provide references for future in-depth investigations and also provide a theoretical basis for developing fundamental strategies for OA prevention and treatment.

OBJECTIVE To optimize the rivaroxaban dosing regimen for anticoagulation in patients with different renal function levels. METHODS The administration regimen was determined based on the drug instructions for rivaroxaban and the actual medication situation of the patient. The target concentration range and the subsection interval were established using rivaroxaban blood minimum concentration for patients from Hebei General Hospital and reference range of rivaroxaban laboratory monitoring concentration recommended by International Council for Standardization in Hematology. The probability of different dosing regimens in each target concentration range was investigated with Monte Carlo simulation using Oracle Crystal Ball software (V11.1.2.4). RESULTS A total of 97 patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation were enrolled and the minimum concentration of rivaroxaban was tested 125 times with a median trough concentration of 32.2 ng/mL; a total of 121 patients with venous thrombosis were enrolled and the minimum concentration was tested 159 times with a median minimum concentration of 31.0 ng/mL. The reference range for steady-state minimum concentration in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation was 12-137 and 3-153 ng/mL, while the reference range for steady-state minimum concentration in patients with venous thrombosis was 6-239 and 3-224 ng/mL. Monte Carlo simulation results showed that in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation, the optimal rivaroxaban dosing regimen for patients with glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) 0-30 mL/min was 5 mg once daily; for patients with eGFR>30-60 mL/min, the optimal dosing regimen was 10-20 mg once daily or 5 mg twice daily; for patients with eGFR>60-90 mL/min, the optimal dosing regimen was 15-30 mg once daily or 5-10 mg twice daily; for patients with eGFR>90-120 mL/min, the optimal dosing regimen was 25-30 mg once daily or 5-15 mg twice daily. For patients with venous thrombosis, it is not recommended to use rivaroxaban more than 5 mg once daily for patients with eGFR 0-30 mL/min; the optimal dosing regimens of rivaroxaban were 5 mg once daily for patients with eGFR>30-60 mL/min, 25- 30 mg once daily or 5-15 mg twice daily for patients with eGFR>60-90 mL/min, 10-15 mg twice daily for patients with eGFR> 90-120 mL/min. CONCLUSIONS Rivaroxaban should be selected carefully as the anticoagulants for patients with severe renal function impairment. Rivaroxaban possesses a wide reference range in the minimum concentration and considerable individual variability. The dosage and frequency of rivaroxaban can be personalized through the Monte Carlo simulation method, taking into account patients’ renal function.

OBJECTIVE To analyze the research status, hotspots and trends in the research of intravenous thrombolytic drugs in the treatment of acute ischemic stroke. METHODS The original studies related to intravenous thrombolytic drugs for acute ischemic stroke were collected by searching the Web of Science core database; the authors, countries/regions, institutions and keywords of the literature were visualized and analyzed using CiteSpace 6.1.R6 software. RESULTS A total of 1 810 articles were included, and the number of articles published showed an increasing trend year by year, with the United States (556 articles) having the largest number of articles, and China ranking the second (339 articles, with centrality of 0). The most published author was Ahmed of Sweden (32 articles), and the most published institution was the University of Calgary in Canada (80 articles). The current research status and hotspots were mainly the application and therapeutic exploration of new thrombolytic drugs, and the frontier and development trend were the adverse prognosis of neurological deterioration and hemorrhagic transformation accompanied by intravenous thrombolytic drug treatment. CONCLUSIONS The research hotspots and frontier about intravenous thrombolytic drugs for acute ischemic stroke are mainly the third generation of intravenous tissue plasminogen activator, and the exploration of new intravenous thrombolytic drugs and their safety and effectiveness will be the future research hotspots. Chinese scholars and research teams should strengthen cooperation and exchanges with other countries, which can be strengthened by carrying out multi-center clinical trials.

Bone formation and deposition are initiated by sensory nerve infiltration in adaptive bone remodeling.Here,we focused on the role of Semaphorin 3A(Sema3A),expressed by sensory nerves,in mechanical loads-induced bone formation and nerve withdrawal using orthodontic tooth movement(OTM)model.Firstly,bone formation was activated after the 3rd day of OTM,coinciding with a decrease in sensory nerves and an increase in pain threshold.Sema3A,rather than nerve growth factor(NGF),highly expressed in both trigeminal ganglion and the axons of periodontal ligament following the 3rd day of OTM.Moreover,in vitro mechanical loads upregulated Sema3A in neurons instead of in human periodontal ligament cells(hPDLCs)within 24 hours.Furthermore,exogenous Sema3A restored the suppressed alveolar bone formation and the osteogenic differentiation of hPDLCs induced by mechanical overload.Mechanistically,Sema3A prevented overstretching of F-actin induced by mechanical overload through ROCK2 pathway,maintaining mitochondrial dynamics as mitochondrial fusion.Therefore,Sema3A exhibits dual therapeutic effects in mechanical loads-induced bone formation,both as a pain-sensitive analgesic and a positive regulator for bone formation.
