Objective To investigate the effects of Ras-related protein Rab-2B(RAB2B)on the biological behaviors of pancreatic cancer cells and elucidate its underlying mechanism.Methods PANC-1 cells,which exhibit relatively high RAB2B expression,and BXPC-3 cells,which display relatively low RAB2B expression,were selected from five pancreatic cancer cell lines.RAB2B-siRNA and pcDNA3.1-RAB2B plasmids were transfected into PANC-1 and BXPC-3 cells using a cell transfection technique.The CCK-8 assay was employed to evaluate the prolif-erative capacity of pancreatic cancer cells following RAB2B intervention.Wound healing and Transwell chamber assays were utilized to assess the migratory and invasive capabilities of pancreatic cancer cells.Additionally,the mRNA and protein expression levels of RAB2B,NF-κB,and Fibronectin 1(FN1)were analyzed by qRT-PCR and Western blot(WB),respectively.Results RAB2B mRNA and protein expression levels were significantly down-regulated in PANC-1 cells following transfection(P<0.05).CCK-8 assay results demonstrated that the proliferative capacity of PANC-1 cells was markedly reduced(P<0.05),and the wound-healing ability was substantially impaired(P<0.01)upon RAB2B knockdown.Transwell assays revealed a significant decrease in cell migration(P<0.01),while Western blot analysis indicated that the expression levels of phosphorylated p65 and FN1 were notably diminished(P<0.01).Conversely,overexpression of RAB2B reversed these aforementioned alterations.Conclusions Knockdown of RAB2B in PANC-1 cells significantly suppresses cell proliferation and migration,whereas overexpression of RAB2B in BXPC-3 cells markedly promotes these processes.This effect is likely mediated through the activation of the NF-κB signaling pathway and the subsequent regulation of FN1 expression.

A 2-month-old female infant developed fever for 2 days and diarrhea for 1 day. Laboratory tests showed that white blood cell count was 18.8×10 9/L, neutrophil count was 8.3×10 9/L, C-reactive protein was 88.8 mg/L, procalcitonin was 35.9 μg/L, alanine aminotransferase (ALT) was 150 U/L, and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) was 121 U/L. Infectious fever and diarrhea were diagnosed. After 3 days of treatment with ceftriaxone, the diarrhea was improved, but there was still fever. Ceftriaxone was replaced by meropenem (20 mg/kg by intravenous infusion, once per 8 hours). Three days later, the infant′s ALT, AST and white blood cell count returned to normal, but she still experienced recurrent fever (up to 39.0 ℃) and mental fatigue, which was considered to be intracranial infection. The dose of meropenem was doubled (40 mg/kg by intravenous infusion, once per 8 hours), and 3 days later, the infant′s body temperature was normal, but mild yellowish skin occurred, with ALT 1 442 U/L, AST 2 868 U/L, direct bilirubin 20.0 μmol/L, and total bile acid (TBA) 90 μmol/L. Acute liver injury caused by meropenem was considered, the drug was replaced by ceftazidime, and liver-protective treatments such as glutathione and ademetionine were given. After 9 days, the infant′s ALT was 140 U/L, AST was 116 U/L, TBA was 46.3 μmol/L, and yellowish skin disappeared. Two weeks later, her liver function indexes basically returned to normal.

Objective To understand the current situation of healthcare-associated infection(HAI)in China,pro-vide data support and decision-making basis for formulating scientific and effective strategies for HAI prevention and control.Methods A nationwide cross-sectional survey on HAI was conducted among various types and levels of medical institutions in China according to a unified protocol of bedside surveys and case investigations.Results In 2024,a total of 5 736 medical institutions and 2 751 765 patients were surveyed.Among them,34 889 HAI cases were identified,with a prevalence rate of 1.27％.The number of HAI episodes was 38 032,and case prevalence rate was 1.38％.The prevalence rate of HAI in medical institutions in different regions of China ranged from 0.66％to 2.35％.Among medical institutions of different scales,those with a bed capacity of ≥900 had the high-est incidence of HAI,reaching 1.65％.The most common infection site was the lower respiratory tract(44.66％),followed by the urinary tract(12.94％),surgical site(9.32％),upper respiratory tract(7.02％),and bloodstream infection(5.78％).The top 3 departments with the highest HAI rates were the general intensive care unit(10.02％),department of neurosurgery(5.51％),and department(group)of hematology(5.34％).A total of 23 238 strains of HAI pathogens were detected,with 10 714 strains(46.10％)from lower respiratory tract speci-mens.The top 5 detected strains were Klebsiella pneumoniae(14.76％),Pseudomonas aeruginosa(13.33％),Escherichia coli(12.79％),Acinetobacter baumannii(9.23％),and Staphylococcus aureus(7.88％).231 944 pa-tients underwent class Ⅰ incision surgery were monitored,with 1 647 cases experienced surgical site infection,and the prevalence rate of surgical site infection was 0.71％.The number of patients who should undergo pathogen de-tection(patients receiving therapeutic and therapeutic combined prophylactic antimicrobial agents)was 715 179,while the actual number was 480 492,with a pathogen detection rate of 67.18％.425 225 patients received patho-genic detection before treatment,with a detection rate of 59.46％.Conclusion The overall HAI prevalence in Chi-na is lower,showing disparities among medical institutions of different regions and scales.Therefore,precise imple-mentation of measures is necessary for HAI prevention and control,with a focus on high-risk institutions and high-risk departments,key areas,and critical procedures.All levels of medical institutions should continuously reduce the incidence of HAI by strengthening monitoring,standardizing the use of antimicrobial agents,and reinforcing basic HAI prevention and control measures.

To enhance clinical outcomes and minimize adverse effects, this consensus document delineates the indications, therapeutic parameters, therapeutic procedures, potential adverse effects, and associated management strategies for MECT. These guidelines are informed by the latest clinical research and expert consensus, integrating evidence-based medicine methodologies. The objective is to furnish clinicians with precise operational guidelines and to advance the standardization of MECT practices in clinical settings.

Body weight abnormalities, including overweight, obesity, and underweight, have become a dual public health challenge in Chinese adults: overweight and obesity lead to a variety of chronic complications, while underweight increases the risks of malnutrition, sarcopenia, and organ dysfunction. To systematically address these issues, multidisciplinary experts in endocrinology, sports science, nutrition, and psychiatry from various regions have held multiple weight management seminars. Based on the latest epidemiological data and clinical evidence, they expanded the guideline to include assessment and intervention strategies for underweight, in addition to the core content of obesity management. This guideline outlines the etiological mechanisms, evaluation methods, and multidimensional management strategies for overweight and obesity, covering key areas such as diagnosis and assessment, medical nutrition therapy, exercise prescription, pharmacological intervention, and psychological support. It is intended to provide a scientific and standardized approach to weight management across the adult population, aiming to curb the rising prevalence of obesity, mitigate complications associated with abnormal body weight, and improve nutritional status and overall quality of life.

Objective:To analyze the factors influencing preoperative anxiety and depression in patients undergoing eye plastic surgery.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted, which included 160 patients awaiting for ocular plastic surgery at the Shanghai Ninth People's Hospital, Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine from January to May 2019. Among them, there were 22 males and 138 females, with an average age of (38.6±9.0) years. A one-on-one survey was conducted on enrolled patients using a paper questionnaire. The survey included general patient information, the simplified coping style questionnaire (SCSQ), the Chinese version of the Kessler 10-item questionnaire (Kessler 10), the perceived social support scale (PSSS), and the hospital anxiety and depression scale (HADS). Factors related to anxiety and depression were screened using through univariate analysis and Spearman correlation analysis, and multivariate logistic regression was used to analyze the factors influencing the anxiety and depression.Results:The detection rate for preoperative anxiety in patients undergoing eye plastic surgery was 16.3% (26/160), and that for depression was 25.0% (40/160). A total of 11.3% (18/160) of patients had both anxiety and depression. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that positive coping strategies ( OR=0.206, 95% CI: 0.051-0.836), depression ( OR=3.596, 95% CI: 1.068-12.107), and a high Kessler10 scale total score ( OR=1.081, 95% CI: 1.005-1.162) were related to anxiety. A monthly income of 10 000-<20 000 yuan ( OR=0.196, 95% CI: 0.044-0.875), a high total score on the Kessler10 scale ( OR=1.194, 95% CI: 1.085-1.314), and a high total PSSS score ( OR=0.913, 95% CI: 0.870-0.958) were related to depression. Conclusion:Factors affecting anxiety are positive coping strategies, depression, and a high total score on the Kessler 10 scale, while those affecting depression are a monthly income of 10 000-<20 000 yuan, a high total score on the Kessler 10 scale, and a high total score on the PSSS.

Currently,there is a paucity of efficacious treatments for acute kidney injury(AKI),and existing therapeutic ap-proaches primarily aim to mitigate symptoms and enhance patient outcomes.Platelets,a vital element of the circulatory system,are characterized by their abundance and multifaceted functions.Moreover,several studies have documented platelet infiltration within the kidneys during A KI,revealing elevated expression levels of platelet activation markers such as P-selectin,RANTES,and integrin α Ⅱ bβ3.This suggests that platelet activation occurs in A KI and may influence the progression of the disease.Furthermore,preliminary findings from both clinical and animal model studies indicate that antiplatelet therapy could re-duce tissue damage and protect renal function in AKI resulting from various etiologies.This review aims to elucidate the role of platelets in the pathophysiology of AKI by synthesizing current researches,while also investigating the potential of antiplatelet therapy as a novel approach for the management of AKI,thereby offering new diagnostic and therapeutic strategies.

Objective To investigate the effects of Ras-related protein Rab-2B(RAB2B)on the biological behaviors of pancreatic cancer cells and elucidate its underlying mechanism.Methods PANC-1 cells,which exhibit relatively high RAB2B expression,and BXPC-3 cells,which display relatively low RAB2B expression,were selected from five pancreatic cancer cell lines.RAB2B-siRNA and pcDNA3.1-RAB2B plasmids were transfected into PANC-1 and BXPC-3 cells using a cell transfection technique.The CCK-8 assay was employed to evaluate the prolif-erative capacity of pancreatic cancer cells following RAB2B intervention.Wound healing and Transwell chamber assays were utilized to assess the migratory and invasive capabilities of pancreatic cancer cells.Additionally,the mRNA and protein expression levels of RAB2B,NF-κB,and Fibronectin 1(FN1)were analyzed by qRT-PCR and Western blot(WB),respectively.Results RAB2B mRNA and protein expression levels were significantly down-regulated in PANC-1 cells following transfection(P<0.05).CCK-8 assay results demonstrated that the proliferative capacity of PANC-1 cells was markedly reduced(P<0.05),and the wound-healing ability was substantially impaired(P<0.01)upon RAB2B knockdown.Transwell assays revealed a significant decrease in cell migration(P<0.01),while Western blot analysis indicated that the expression levels of phosphorylated p65 and FN1 were notably diminished(P<0.01).Conversely,overexpression of RAB2B reversed these aforementioned alterations.Conclusions Knockdown of RAB2B in PANC-1 cells significantly suppresses cell proliferation and migration,whereas overexpression of RAB2B in BXPC-3 cells markedly promotes these processes.This effect is likely mediated through the activation of the NF-κB signaling pathway and the subsequent regulation of FN1 expression.

In 2022， Hainan provincial government launched the project for the prevention and control of viral hepatitis with the goals of a hepatitis B screening rate of 90%， a diagnostic rate of 90%， and a treatment rate of 80% among people aged 18 years and above by the year 2025， and the main intervention measures include population-based prevention， case screening， antiviral therapy， and health management. As of December 31， 2024， a total of 6.875 million individuals in the general population had been screened for hepatitis B， with a screening rate of 95.6%. A total of 184 710 individuals with positive HBsAg were identified， among whom 156 772 were diagnosed through serological reexamination， resulting in a diagnostic rate of 84.9%. A total of 50 742 patients with chronic hepatitis B were identified， among whom 42 921 had hepatitis B-specific health records established for health management， with a file establishment rate of 84.6%. A total of 31 553 individuals received antiviral therapy， with a treatment rate of 62.2%. A total of 2.503 million individuals at a high risk of hepatitis C were screened， among whom 4 870 tested positive for HCV antibody and 3 858 underwent HCV RNA testing， resulting in a diagnostic rate of 79.2%， and 1 824 individuals with positive HCV RNA were identified， among whom 1 194 received antiviral therapy， with a treatment rate of 65.5%. In addition， 159 301 individuals with negative HBsAg and anti-HBs and an age of 20 — 40 years were inoculated with hepatitis B vaccine free of charge. Through the implementation of the project for the prevention and control of viral hepatitis， a large number of hepatitis patients have been identified， treated， and managed in the province within a short period of time， which significantly accelerates the efforts to eliminate the crisis of viral hepatitis.
