Objective:To analyze the clinical data of patients with severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome（SFTS）in Linyi city of Shandong province from 2023 to 2024，analyze the related factors affecting the prognosis，improve the understanding of the disease and reduce its mortality..Methods:The data of 36 SFTS patients diagnosed and admitted to Linyi People's Hospital from May 2023 to August 2024 were retrospectively analyzed. According to the clinical outcomes of the patients，they were divided into a survival group（n=30）and a death group（n=6）. The clinical data and laboratory test results of the two groups were analyzed to evaluate the risk factors related to prognosis.Results:The median age in the death group was 68.33 years old，and that in the survival group was 63.96 years old，with no statistically significant difference. All patients had fever，22 had fatigue and poor appetite，and 21 had muscle aches and other systemic symptoms. some were prone to general symptoms such as fatigue，poor appetite，and muscle soreness. All patients in the death group had neurological symptoms such as headache and consciousness disorders. The levels of serum potassium，CRP，PCT，IL-6，ALT，AST，CK，CK-MB，LDH，α-HBDH，APTT，D-D，and viral load in the death group were higher than those in the survival group，with statistically significant differences（ t=-3.344， P=0.002； Z=-2.195， P=0.028； Z=-3.648， P=0.000； Z=-3.641， P=0.000； Z=-2.241， P=0.025； Z=-2.288， P=0.022； Z=-2.427， P=0.015； Z=-2.007， P=0.045； Z=-3.127， P=0.002； Z=-2.404， P=0.016； Z=-2.755， P=0.006； Z=-3.081， P=0.002； P<0.05）. The platelet count in the death group was lower than that in the survival group，and the difference was statistically significant（ Z=-3.292， P=0.001， P<0.05）. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that patients with increased AST，CK，IL-6，APTT，D-dimer and decreased platelet count had an increased risk of death. Fungal infections occurred in 15 cases，including 5 cases of Candida albicans，3 cases of Candida parapsilosis，and 7 cases of Aspergillus. All patients in the death group had fungal infections，all of whom had Aspergillus infections. Conclusion:SFTS patients often have fever，fatigue，and muscle soreness，and critically ill patients are prone to neurological symptoms. Patients with elevated AST，CK，IL-6，APTT，D-D，viral load，and decreased platelet count in the course of the disease often indicate poor prognosis and should be closely monitored. In addition，critically ill patients are prone to fungal infection.

Irinotecan (CPT11) chemotherapy-induced diarrhea affects a substantial cancer population due to β-glucuronidase (Gus) converting 10-O-glucuronyl-7-ethyl-10-hydroxycamptothecin (SN38G) to toxic 7-ethyl-10-hydroxycamptothecin (SN38). Existing interventions primarily address inflammation and Gus enzyme inhibition, neglecting epithelial repair and Gus-expressing bacteria. Herein, we discovered that dehydrodiisoeugenol (DDIE), isolated from nutmeg, alleviates CPT11-induced intestinal mucositis alongside a synergistic antitumor effect with CPT11 by improving weight loss, colon shortening, epithelial barrier dysfunction, goblet cells and intestinal stem cells (ISCs) loss, and wound-healing. The anti-mucositis effect of DDIE is gut microbiota-dependent. Analysis of microbiome profiling data from clinical patients and CPT11-induced mucositis mice reveals a strong correlation between CPT11 chemotoxicity and Gus-expressing bacteria, particularly Enterococcus faecalis (E. faecalis). DDIE counters CPT11-induced augmentation of E. faecalis, leading to decreased intestinal Gus and SN38 levels. The Partial Least Squares Path Model (PLS-PM) algorithm initially links E. faecalis to dysregulated epithelial renovation. This is further validated in a 3D intestinal organoid model, in which both SN38 and E. faecalis hinder the formation and differentiation of organoids. Interestingly, colonization of E. faecalis exacerbates CPT11-induced mucositis and disturbs epithelial differentiation. Our study unveils a microbiota-driven, epithelial reconstruction-mediated action of DDIE against mucositis, proposing the 'Gus bacteria-host-irinotecan axis' as a promising target for mitigating CPT11 chemotoxicity.

Objective:To analyze the expression of pentraxin-3 (PTX-3) and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and their relationship with insulin resistance.Methods::A total of 150 PCOS patients diagnosed and treated in our hospital from Dec. 2020 to Mar. 2023 were collected as the study subjects. According to the insulin resistance index (HOMA-IR), 68 cases were in the insulin resistance group and 82 cases in the non insulin resistance group. 150 healthy individuals who underwent physical examination were included into the control group; Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was applied to detect serum levels of PTX-3 and COX-2; Pearson method was applied to analyze the correlation between serum PTX-3 and COX-2 levels, and their correlation with general data; Logistic regression was applied to analyze the influencing factors of insulin resistance in PCOS patients; Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was applied to analyze the diagnostic value of serum PTX-3 and COX-2 for insulin resistance in PCOS patients.Results::Fasting blood sugar (FBG) [ (5.46±1.12), (4.71±1.03) mmol/L] in insulin-resistant and non-insulin-resistant groups, fasting insulin (FINS), HOMA-IR, testosterone (T), estradiol (E2), total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG), LDL cholesterol (LDL-C), PTX-3, and COX-2 were significantly higher than those in the control group ( P<0.05), HDL cholesterol (HDL-C) were significantly lower than those in the control group ( P<0.05), and the insulin-resistant group FBG, FINS, HOMA-IR, T, E2, TC, TG, LDL-C, PTX-3 and COX-2 levels were significantly higher than those in the non-insulin-resistant group ( P<0.05), and HDL-C levels were significantly lower than those in the non-insulin-resistant group ( P<0.05). According to Pearson correlation analysis, serum PTX-3 and COX-2 levels were positively correlated ( r=0.587, P<0.05), both of which were positively correlated with FBG, FINS, HOMA-IR, E2, T, TC, TG and LDL-C, and negatively correlated with HDL-C. According to Logistic regression analysis, the elevated levels of PTX-3, COX-2, FBG, FINS, and HOMA-IR were risk factors affecting insulin resistance in PCOS patients ( P<0.05). According to the ROC curve, the AUC of insulin resistance in PCOS patients diagnosed by the combination of the two was better than that diagnosed separately by PTX-3 and COX-2 (Z combination vs PTX-3=2.205, Z combination vs COX-2=2.703, P<0.05) . Conclusions::The expression levels of PTX-3 and COX-2 in the serum of PCOS patients are obviously increased, and they are closely related to insulin resistance. The combination of the two can improve the diagnostic value of insulin resistance in PCOS patients.

Background Air pollution is a major public health concern. Air Quality Health Index (AQHI) is a very important air quality risk communication tool. However, AQHI is usually constructed by single-pollutant model, which has obvious disadvantages. Objective To construct an AQHI based on the joint effects of multiple air pollutants (J-AQHI), and to provide a scientific tool for health risk warning and risk communication of air pollution. Methods Data on non-accidental deaths in Yunnan, Guangdong, Hunan, Zhejiang, and Jilin provinces from January 1, 2013 to December 31, 2018 were obtained from the corresponding provincial disease surveillance points systems (DSPS), including date of death, age, gender, and cause of death. Daily meteorological (temperature and relative humidity) and air pollution data (SO₂, NO₂, CO, PM_2.5, PM₁₀, and maximum 8 h O₃ concentrations) at the same period were respectively derived from China Meteorological Data Sharing Service System and National Urban Air Quality Real-time Publishing Platform. Lasso regression was first applied to select air pollutants, then a time-stratified case-crossover design was applied. Each case was matched to 3 or 4 control days which were selected on the same days of the week in the same calendar month. Then a distributed lag nonlinear model (DLNM) was used to estimate the exposure-response relationship between selected air pollutants and mortality, which was used to construct the AQHI. Finally, AQHI was classified into four levels according to the air pollutant guidance limit values from World Health Organization Global Air Quality Guidelines (AQG 2021), and the excess risks (ERs) were calculated to compare the AQHI based on single-pollutant model and the J-AQHI based on multi-pollutant model. Results PM_2.5, NO₂, SO₂, and O₃ were selected by Lasso regression to establish DLNM model. The ERs for an interquartile range (IQR) increase and 95% confidence intervals (CI) for PM_2.5, NO₂, SO₂ and O₃ were 0.71% (0.34%–1.09%), 2.46% (1.78%–3.15%), 1.25% (0.9%–1.6%), and 0.27% (−0.11%–0.65%) respectively. The distribution of J-AQHI was right-skewed, and it was divided into four levels, with ranges of 0-1 for low risk, 2-3 for moderate risk, 4-5 for high health risk, and ≥6 for severe risk, and the corresponding proportions were 11.25%, 64.61%, 19.33%, and 4.81%, respectively. The ER (95%CI) of mortality risk increased by 3.61% (2.93–4.29) for each IQR increase of the multi-pollutant based J-AQHI , while it was 3.39% (2.68–4.11) for the single-pollutant based AQHI . Conclusion The J-AQHI generated by multi-pollutant model demonstrates the actual exposure health risk of air pollution in the population and provides new ideas for further improvement of AQHI calculation methods.

In 2016, a national one million general population cohort project was set up in China for the first time in "Precision Medicine Research" Key Project, National Key Research and Development Program of China, which consists of general population cohorts in seven areas in China. As one of the seven major areas in China, northeastern China has unique climate and specific dietary patterns, and population aging is serious in this area. And the burden of chronic and non-communicable diseases ranks tops in China. Therefore, it is of great significance to establish a large general population cohort in northeastern China to explore the area specific exposure factors related to pathogenesis and prognosis of chronic and non-communicable diseases, develop new prevention strategies to reduce the burden of the diseases and improve the population health in northeastern China. In July 2018, the general population cohort study in northeastern China was launched, the study includes questionnaire survey, health examination and blood, urine and stool sample collection and detection in recruited participants. By now, the cohort has covered all age groups, and the baseline data of 115 414 persons have been collected. This paper summarizes the design and practice of the general population cohort study in northeastern China to provide reference for related research in China.

Objective:To explore the clinical efficacy of different doses of apatinib combined with chemotherapy in patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and the adverse reactions.Methods:A total of 69 patients with NSCLC diagnosed in the No. 901 Hospital of the Chinese People′s Liberation Army Joint Logistics Support Force were selected from January 2018 to June 2020, and were divided into chemotherapy alone group (docetaxel+ cisplatin was used), apatinib group A [apatinib (0.25 g)+ docetaxel+ cisplatin was used] and apatinib group B [apatinib (0.50 g)+ docetaxel+ cisplatin was used] according to random number table method, with 23 cases in each group. The objective response rate (ORR), disease control rate (DCR), median overall survival (OS), median progression-free survival (PFS), and incidences of adverse reactions were compared between the three groups of patients.Results:One patients in the apatinib group B withdrew from the study due to acute myocardial infarction. After 4 cycless of treatment, the ORR of the patients in the chemotherapy alone group, apatinib group A and apatinib group B were 17.39% (4/23), 47.83% (11/23) and 54.55% (12/22) respectively, with a statistically significant difference ( χ2=7.41, P=0.024). The ORR of the apatinib group B was higher than that of the chemotherapy alone group, with a statistically significant difference ( χ2=6.77, P=0.009). There were no statistically significant differences in ORR between the apatinib group A and chemotherapy alone group, the apatinib group A and apatinib group B ( χ2=4.85, P=0.028; χ2=0.20, P=0.652). The DCR of the patients in the three groups were 47.83% (11/23), 78.26% (18/23) and 86.36% (19/22) respectively, with a statistically significant difference ( χ2=9.03, P=0.011). The DCR of the apatinib group B was higher than that of the chemotherapy alone group, with a statistically significant difference ( χ2=7.52, P=0.006). There were no statistically significant differences in DCR between the apatinib group A and the chemotherapy alone group, the apatinib group A and apatinib group B ( χ2=4.57, P=0.033; χ2=0.51, P=0.477). The median OS of the patients in the three groups were 6.8, 9.2 and 9.9 months respectively, with a statistically significant different ( χ2=8.91, P=0.022). Compared with the chemotherapy alone group, the median OS of the apatinib group A and apatinib group B were significantly prolonged, with statistically significant differences ( χ2=7.25, P=0.036; χ2=8.60, P=0.029). Compared with the apatinib group A, the median OS of the apatinib group B was prolonged, but there was no statistically significant different ( χ2=1.54, P=0.201). The median PFS of the patients in the three groups were 5.2, 7.7 and 8.2 months respectively, with a statistically significant different ( χ2=8.79, P=0.026). Compared with the chemotherapy alone group, the median PFS of the apatinib group A and apatinib group B were significantly prolonged, with statistically significant differences ( χ2=7.01, P=0.039; χ2=8.36, P=0.031). Compared with the apatinib A group, the median PFS of the apatinib group B was prolonged, but there was no statistically significant different ( χ2=1.68, P=0.186). There were statistically significant differences in the incidences of fatigue [34.78% (8/23) vs. 65.22% (15/23) vs. 72.73% (16/22), χ2=7.50, P=0.024], hypertension [4.35% (1/23) vs. 34.78% (8/23) vs. 68.18% (15/22), χ2=20.07, P<0.001], hand-foot syndrome [4.35% (1/23) vs. 43.48% (10/23) vs. 72.73% (16/22), χ2=22.28, P<0.001] and oral mucositis [8.70% (2/23) vs. 39.13% (9/23) vs. 72.73% (16/22), χ2=19.26, P<0.001] among the three groups. Compared with the chemotherapy alone group, the incidences of hypertension and hand-foot syndrome in the apatinib group A and the incidences of fatigue, hypertension, hand-foot syndrome and oral mucositis in the apatinib group B were increased, with statistically significant differences ( χ2=6.77, P=0.009; χ2=9.68, P=0.002; χ2=6.51, P=0.011; χ2=20.00, P<0.001; χ2=22.37, P<0.001; χ2=19.21, P<0.001). Conclusion:Apatinib (0.50 g) combined with chemotherapy has better short-term efficacy than chemotherapy alone in advanced NSCLC. Apatinib (0.25 g) and apatinib (0.50 g) can prolong the survival of patients, but increasing the treatment dose can not achieve longer survival benefit.

Objective:To compare the suction effect of modified and conventional strong suction devices on sand blasting dust during sand blasting cleaning.Methods:A pre-experiment was carried out using an oral bionic head mold containing 28 standard teeth to compare the dust suction effect of the modified and conventional strong suction devices under different conditions. Using the convenient sampling method, a total of 186 patients who underwent sandblasting treatment in Department of Periodontology in Hospital of Stomatology of Jilin University were selected from February to April 2019, and they were divided into the experimental group and the control group. The experimental group used a modified strong suction device, while the control group used a clinical routine strong suction device. The comfort and VAS scores of patients in the two groups during the sandblasting treatment were compared.Results:Under the conditions of 1/3 and 2/3 of the amount of blasting, 5 and 10 minutes of blasting time and 15 cm and 30 cm of sandblasting powder collection distance, the dust reduction effect of the experimental group was better than that of the control group, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05) . The comfort score of the experimental group was higher than that of the control group and the VAS score of the experimental group was lower than that of the control group, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:The modified strong suction device can control the spread of dust from pollution sources and improve the consulting room environment, thereby reducing the occupational hazards of medical staff, reducing the stimulating inducement of people with low immunity and improving the comfort of patients and the quality of nursing.
