Methods According to the requirements of the Special Monitoring Work Plan for Radiation Health in Shenzhen, quality control tests were carried out on some radiological diagnosis and treatment equipment in Shenzhen according to the test items and methods of the currently valid national standards. Results From 2019 to 2023, a total of 72 medical institutions participated in radiological health monitoring program in Shenzhen, and 839 quality control tests were performed on radiological diagnosis and treatment equipment. The qualified rate was 91.8% in preliminary tests. The qualified rates of radiological diagnosis, radiotherapy, and nuclear medicine equipment were 91.9%, 96.3%, and 62.5%, respectively. The primary unqualified items were response uniformity, flatness of the X-ray irradiation field, and intrinsic spatial linearity. Conclusion The qualified rate in quality control of nuclear medical equipment is relatively low. Medical institutions should strengthen the routine maintenance of radiological diagnosis and treatment equipment. Radiological health technical service institutions should enhance the training of technical personnel to ensure the health and safety of patients and radiation workers.

Objective To analyze the activity concentrations of gross α, gross β, and radionuclides in atmospheric fallout around Daya Bay Nuclear Power Plant from 2019 to 2022, and provide foundational scientific data for the healthy development of nuclear energy. Methods Five monitoring sites were set up at different distances (1.2, 6.9, 12.4, 42.3, and 69.2 km) from Daya Bay Nuclear Island 1. Stainless steel sampling barrels were used to collect atmospheric fallout, with a monitoring cycle of three months. The collected samples were ashed using radiochemical method. Subsequently, the gross α and gross β radioactivity were quantified using a low-background α/β measurement instrument. The remaining ash samples were mixed with water and left to equilibrate for over three weeks before γ-nuclide analysis using a low-background, high-purity germanium γ-spectrometer. Results The gross α activity concentration in atmospheric fallout around Daya Bay Nuclear Power Plant from 2019 to 2022 averaged (25.3 ± 10.6) Bq/m²/season and ranged from 5.8 to 73.4 Bq/m²/season. The gross α activity concentrations in sampling sites #1 to #5 were 5.8-34.4, 11.9-35.2, 14.4-46.4, 7.2-73.4, and 13.1-43.1 Bq/m²/season, respectively. The gross β activity concentration averaged (50.5 ± 23.4) Bq/m²/season and ranged from 13.9 to 139.3 Bq/m²/season. The gross β activity concentrations of sampling sites #1 to #5 were 17.1-107.4, 17.6-87.5, 25.8-102.0, 13.9-139.3, and 23.4-99.2 Bq/m²/season, resprctively. The activity concentrations of ²³⁸U, ²²⁶Ra, ²³²Th, ⁴⁰K, ²¹⁰Pb, and ⁷Be in atmospheric fallout were < lower limit of detection (LLD)-4.2, < LLD-5.8, < LLD-6.3, < LLD-42.1, < LLD-514.0, and 35.7-1761.0 Bq/m²/season, respectively. Gross α and gross β activity concentrations were significantly positively correlated with ²¹⁰Pb activity concentration (r=0.770, α < 0.001; r=0.882, α < 0.001, respectively). Gross β activity concentration showed a significant positive correlation with ⁷Be (r=0.833, α < 0.001). The activity concentrations of ⁵⁴Mn, ⁵⁷Co, ⁵⁸Co, ⁶⁰Co, ⁵⁹Fe, ⁹⁵Zr, ¹⁰³Ru, ¹⁰⁶Ru, ^110mAg, ¹³¹I, ¹³⁴Cs, ¹³⁷ Cs, ¹⁴⁰Ba and ¹⁹²Ir were lower than the LLD of the instrument, and no artificial radionuclides were detected. Conclusion The gross α and gross β radioactive activity concentrations in the atmospheric fallout in the surrounding area of Daya Bay Nuclear Power Plant during 2019-2022 were affected by natural radionuclides ²¹⁰Pb and ⁷Be, and were in the normal fluctuation ranges. No artificial radionuclides were found in the atmospheric fallout, and the Daya Bay Nuclear Power Plant was in a safe and stable state of operation.

OBJECTIVE To systematically investigate the changes of volatile components in Euphorbia wallichii after milk and wine processing， and preliminarily elucidate the material basis for reducing toxicity. METHODS Using headspace gas chromatography-mass spectrometry technology， the volatile components in raw E. wallichii， milk-processed E. wallichii， and wine- processed E. wallichii were isolated and identified， and the relative percentage content of each component was calculated by the peak area normalization method. Combining chemometric methods such as principal component analysis and orthogonal partial least- squares discriminant analysis， changes in volatile components in samples after milk and wine processing were compared. Differential components were screened. RESULTS A total of 66 volatile components were identified from the three samples， with the types of compounds primarily comprising alkanes， olefins， heterocycles and esters， among others. A total of 39， 24 and 36 volatile components were identified from raw E. wallichii， milk-processed E. wallichii， and wine-processed E. wallichii， respectively， with 10 components common to all three preparations. Compared with raw E. wallichii， the relative percentage of other components in milk-processed E. wallichii decreased， except for alkanes and esters. The relative percentage of alkanes， olefins， aldehydes and esters in wine-processed E. wallichii increased， but the contents of heterocyclic compounds， ketones， ethers and alcohols decreased. The results of chemometric analysis showed that the volatile components of raw and processed products were significantly different. A total of 5 kinds of differential components in milk-processed products and 3 kinds of differential components in wine-processed products were screened out. Among them， the relative percentage of potential toxic components such as linalool， octanal and 3-pentanone decreased significantly after processing（P＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS Milk and wine processing may exert a toxicity-reducing effect by reducing the contents of toxic components such as linalool， octanal and 3-pentanonein E. wallichii.

Objective This study aimed to investigate the potential relationship between urinary metals copper (Cu), arsenic (As), strontium (Sr), barium (Ba), iron (Fe), lead (Pb) and manganese (Mn) and grip strength. Methods We used linear regression models, quantile g-computation and Bayesian kernel machine regression (BKMR) to assess the relationship between metals and grip strength.Results In the multimetal linear regression, Cu (β=-2.119), As (β=-1.318), Sr (β=-2.480), Ba (β=0.781), Fe (β= 1.130) and Mn (β=-0.404) were significantly correlated with grip strength (P < 0.05). The results of the quantile g-computation showed that the risk of occurrence of grip strength reduction was -1.007 (95％ confidence interval:-1.362, -0.652; P < 0.001) when each quartile of the mixture of the seven metals was increased. Bayesian kernel function regression model analysis showed that mixtures of the seven metals had a negative overall effect on grip strength, with Cu, As and Sr being negatively associated with grip strength levels. In the total population, potential interactions were observed between As and Mn and between Cu and Mn (Pinteractions of 0.003 and 0.018, respectively).Conclusion In summary, this study suggests that combined exposure to metal mixtures is negatively associated with grip strength. Cu, Sr and As were negatively correlated with grip strength levels, and there were potential interactions between As and Mn and between Cu and Mn.

The aim of this study was to explore the impact of chronic apical periodontitis(CAP)on atherosclerosis in apoE-/-mice fed high-fat diet(HFD).This investigation focused on the gut microbiota,metabolites,and intestinal barrier function to uncover potential links between oral health and cardiovascular disease(CVD).In this study,CAP was shown to exacerbate atherosclerosis in HFD-fed apoE-/-mice,as evidenced by the increase in plaque size and volume in the aortic walls observed via Oil Red O staining.16S rRNA sequencing revealed significant alterations in the gut microbiota,with harmful bacterial species thriving while beneficial species declining.Metabolomic profiling indicated disruptions in lipid metabolism and primary bile acid synthesis,leading to elevated levels of taurochenodeoxycholic acid(TCDCA),taurocholic acid(TCA),and tauroursodeoxycholic acid(TDCA).These metabolic shifts may contribute to atherosclerosis development.Furthermore,impaired intestinal barrier function,characterized by reduced mucin expression and disrupted tight junction proteins,was observed.The increased intestinal permeability observed was positively correlated with the severity of atherosclerotic lesions,highlighting the importance of the intestinal barrier in cardiovascular health.In conclusion,this research underscores the intricate interplay among oral health,gut microbiota composition,metabolite profiles,and CVD incidence.These findings emphasize the importance of maintaining good oral hygiene as a potential preventive measure against cardiovascular issues,as well as the need for further investigations into the intricate mechanisms linking oral health,gut microbiota,and metabolic pathways in CVD development.

Objective:To evaluate the safety and efficacy of hydroxyapatite-magnesium (HA-Mg) glaucoma drainage plate after implantation in rabbit eyes.Methods:Twelve New Zealand white rabbits were randomly assigned to HA-Mg drainage implant group and trabeculectomy group using the paired comparison method, with 6 rabbits in each group.The right eyes of rabbits were taken as the experimental eyes, and the left eyes of rabbits were taken as a normal control group.HA-Mg drainage implant group underwent implantation of the HA-Mg drainage plate and the trabeculectomy group underwent trabeculectomy.At 1, 3, and 5 months after surgery, the ocular condition was observed by slit-lamp examination with auxiliary lenses and the fixation of the drainage plate in the anterior chamber and subconjunctiva was measured by ultrasound biomicroscopy.At 5 months after surgery, corneal endothelial cell counts were performed with a corneal endothelial cell counter.The intraocular pressure (IOP) was continuously measured weekly for 21 weeks preoperatively and postoperatively.The flow patency of aqueous humor drainage channel was identified by the injection of trypan blue in anterior chamber.The aqueous humor drainage channels and surrounding tissues were evaluated by hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining after HA-Mg drainage plate was completely degraded.This study was in accordance with China Animal Welfare Law and the ARVO Statement on the use of animals for ophthalmic research, and animal experiments were conducted in accordance with the Regulations on the Administration of Experimental Animals issued by the National Science Council.The study protocol was reviewed and approved by the Ethics Committee of The Third Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University (No.Kelun Pre-Examination [2021]14).Results:No systemic or ocular side effects were observed in the experimental animals after surgery.All 6 HA-Mg drainage plates were completely degraded about 4 months postoperatively, among which 4 plates were well-fixed and 2 plates had a minimal rotation, and no plate moved into the anterior chamber.At 5 months after surgery, the number of corneal endothelial cells in the HA-Mg drainage implant group and normal control group was 2 535.2±274.4 and 2 521.0±175.8, respectively, and there was no statistical significance between them ( t=0.073, P=0.857).There were statistically significant differences in IOP among the three groups at different time points before and after surgery ( Fgroup=26.409, P<0.001; Ftime=7.843, P<0.001), in which the IOP in trabeculectomy group and normal control group at different time points after surgery was higher than that in HA-Mg drainage implant group, and the IOP in HA-Mg drainage implant group at different time points after surgery was lower than that before surgery (all at P<0.05).The patency test revealed that the trypan blue could still drain from the anterior chamber to the subconjunctiva 5 months after HA-Mg drainage plate implantation.The scleral linear aqueous humor drainage channel and anterior synechia were observed after drainage plate completely degraded 6 months postoperatively, and no obvious inflammatory cell infiltration was seen. Conclusions:After implantation of HA-Mg drainage plate in rabbit eyes, the intraocular pressure can be effectively lowered and the safety is good.

Objective:To investigate the correlation between bone marrow microvascular density,angiogenesis factors and bortezomib resistance in multiple myeloma(MM).Methods:The data of 200 patients with MM treated in our hospital from January 2020 to August 2023 were retrospectively analyzed,and the patients with MM were divided into drug-resistant group(n=68)and non-drug-resistant group(n=132)according to their drug resistance during bortezomib treatment.The univariate and multivariate logistic analysis were used to screen the independent influencing factors of bortezomib resistance in MM patients during treatment.The receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve and clinical decision curve(DCA)were used to evaluate the predictive performance and clinical application value of the risk prediction model,the consistency between the actual incidence rate and the predicted incidence rate was judged by validating the calibration chart,and the goodness-of-fit of the model was judged by H-L test.Results:68 of the 200 MM patients developed resistance and poor clinical efficacy during bortezomib treatment,and the clinical resistance rate of bortezomib was 34.0％.The results of multivariate analysis showed that high bone marrow microvessel density(MVD)and high bone marrow supernatant VEGF,HGF,and bFGF expression levels were independent risk factors for bortezomib resistance in MM patients(P＜0.05).The area under the ROC curve(AUC)of the model jointly constructed by bone marrow MVD,serum VEGF,HGF,bFGF and TNF-α levels was 0.924,and its sensitivity and specificity were 92.6％and 78.8％,which were higher than those of the bone marrow MVD model(AUC=0.743)and the vasogenesis factor model(AUC=0.878).The calibration curve of the joint prediction model was close to the standard curve,indicating that the model is more consistent.The results of H-L goodness-of-fit test showed x2=14.748,P=0.164,the joint prediction model had a good fit.The DCA curve showed that the clinical net benefit of intervention in the range of 0.0～1.0 was greater than that of full intervention and no intervention.Conclusion:The prediction model based on bone marrow MVD and vasogenesis factors(VEGF,HGF,bFGF)in MM patients has higher clinical evaluation performance and predictive value.

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.
