Objective: To analyze the school tuberculosis (TB) outbreaks and preventive treatment in Hefei from 2022 to 2024, so as to provide reference for TB prevention and control in schools. Methods: Data were collected on all school based TB outbreaks occurring during 2022-2024 in Hefei, defined as ≥2 epidemiologically linked TB cases within the same school during a single semester. Statistical analyses were performed using the Chi square test. Results: Close contacts exhibited significantly higher TB incidence (2.88%) and latent mycobacterium tuberculosis infection (LTBI) rates (13.80%) in the school TB outbreaks, compared to non close contacts (0.12% and 2.63%, respectively). Among close contacts, secondary school students showed lower TB incidence (0.48%) and LTBI prevalence (3.42%) than both primary school or younger children (0.68%, 6.95%) and college students ( 0.78% , 6.50%), with statistically significant differences ( χ 2=360.91, 6.37; 791.71, 102.03, all P <0.05). The proportion of LTBI individuals recommended for preventive therapy was higher in primary school or younger groups (98.59%) than in secondary (95.25%) or college students (86.34%) ( χ 2=25.86, P <0.01). However, among those recommended, close contacts had higher uptake (85.82%) and completion rates (87.25%) of preventive therapy than non close contacts (69.63% and 70.57%); similarly, secondary school students demonstrated higher uptake (91.21%) and completion rates (86.45%) compared to primary school or younger (88.57%, 83.87%) and college students (57.28%, 64.08%) ( χ 2=30.52, 26.72; 125.17, 38.84, all P <0.01). Subsequent TB incidence among LTBI close contacts (13.30%) and among those who did not complete preventive therapy (22.73%) were significantly higher than among non close contacts (2.80%, 2.41%), respectively ( χ 2=32.19, 13.87, both P <0.05). Conclusions In school TB outbreaks, close contacts face higher LTBI prevalence and subsequent TB risk than non close contacts. College students show notably low adherence to preventive therapy. It is necessary to take targeted measures to improve the compliance of preventive measures among students.

Objective:To outline and analyze the core elements of the coordinated development and governance of China's tripartite system,and to provide policy optimization recommendations to promote its coordinated development and governance.Method:Using grounded theory research methodology,this study constructs a path model for the coordinated development and governance of the tripartite system based on interview records from 28 participants.The process involves three levels of coding:open coding,axial coding,and selective coding.Results:The path of the coordinated development and governance of the tripartite system was summarized into 20 initial categories,8 main categories and 3 core categories(departmental coordination mechanism,construction of a service-oriented government,publicity and guidance),and then a theoretical model was formed with the long-term development of the coordinated development and governance of the tripartite system as the result and the protection of people's health as the ultimate goal.Conclusions:It is suggested to enhance the awareness of departmental coordination,consolidate the foundation of coordinated development and governance;try to change the thinking angle,and constantly improve the service awareness;strengthen public publicity and education,and attach importance to public opinion early warning and response.

In 2023, new diagnostic criteria were proposed to distinguish myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibody-associated disease (MOGAD) from other inflammatory diseases of the central nervous system.With typical clinical presentation and neuroimaging features, the seropositive status of anti-myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein-IgG (MOG-IgG) is essential for the diagnosis of MOGAD.Advances in cell transfection immunofluorescence assays have improved diagnostic accuracy in the last few years, but there are differences in the positive predictive value of serum MOG-IgG titers in the context of different MOGAD prevalence.Therefore, alternative diagnostic methods need to be further explored, and the clinical significance of low MOG-IgG titers should be carefully interpreted.In this review, the main clinical features, current understanding and challenges of MOGAD were discussed, including uncertainties about the specificity and pathogenicity of myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein autoantibodies and the need to identify immunopathological targets for future therapies.Moreover, it is necessary to search for and validate biomarkers that can help diagnose and detect disease activity, and it is important to identify MOGAD patients who need long-term immunotherapy.

Objective:To analyze the predictive role of WT1 expression levels pre-and early post-transplantation on relapse and overall survival(OS)in patients with acute myeloid leukemia(AML)undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation(allo-HSCT)during their first complete remission(CR1).Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 107 adult AML patients who underwent allo-HSCT during their CR1 at our center between May 2012 and December 2021.The predictive role of bone marrow WT1 expression levels before transplantation and at 3 and 6 months post-transplantation on relapse and OS was explored in combination with relevant clinical factors.Results:The median follow-up time for the 107 patients was 70(range:11-117)months.Among the patients,15 cases died.Kaplan-Meier survial analysis showed that the 3-year overall survival(OS)rate was 85.0％.20 patients experienced relapse,with a median time to relapse of 8(range:0.5-44)months and a l-year cumulative relapse rate of 13.1％.The overall median value of WT1 before transplantation,3 months after transplantation,and 6 months after transplantation was 0.26％(range:0％-23.64％),with an upper quartile value of 0.74％.No statistically significant differences in WT1 expression levels were observed among the pre-transplantation,3-month post-transplantation,and 6-month post-transplantation time points(P=0.227).Univariate analysis showed that patients with WT1 levels＞0.74％at 3 months post-transplantation had a higher 1-year relapse rate(P=0.029)and lower 3-year OS rate(P＜0.001)compared to patients with WT1 levels ≤0.74％.Other significant factors affecting 1-year relapse included stem cell source(P=0.041)and chronic graft-versus-host disease(cGVHD)(P=0.013).For 3-year OS,additional influencing factors were genetic high risk(P=0.048)and stem cell source(P=0.016).Multivariate analysis revealed that WT1 level＞0.74％at 3 months post-transplantation had a trend to affect 1-year relapse rate(HR=3.309,95％CI:0.958-11.431,P=0.058),while the absence of cGVHD was an independent risk factor for 1-year relapse(HR=3.473,95％CI:0.749-16.100,P=0.037).Only WT1 level＞0.74％at 3 months post-transplantation was an independent risk factor for 3-year OS(HR=6.886,95％CI:2.402-19.738,P＜0.001).Conclusion:High WT1 expression level at 3 months post-transplantation in AML patients undergoing allo-HSCT during CR1 affects the 1-year relapse rate and 3-year OS,and is an independent risk factor affecting 3-year OS.These findings suggest that dynamic monitoring of WT1 expression levels has certain value in prognostic assessment of AML patients who received allo-HSCT during CR1.
