Abstract The study examines the development and application of microclimate standards for primary and secondary school classrooms, so as to ensure and promote the healthy growth of primary and secondary school students. The paper systematically reviews relevant domestic and international standards, analyzes the problems and shortcomings arising from their practical application and proposes effective countermeasures, in order to provide robust references aimed at optimizing the classroom environment in primary and secondary schools for student health, as well as offering practical support to advance the construction of a healthy China.

Objective: To understand the microclimate in primary and secondary school classrooms for the study period during the winter heating season, so as to provide a reference for the revision and improvement of relevant health standards. Methods: In December 2024, stratified random sampling was used to select 30 primary and secondary schools and 180 classrooms from the northern regions with centralized heating (Liaoning Province, Tianjin City) and the southern regions without centralized heating (Shanghai City, Anhui Province, and Jiangxi Province). Indoor temperature, relative humidity, wind speed, CO 2 and other indicators were measured on site. Variance analysis, t-test, Mann-Whitney U test and Kruskal-Wallis H test were used to analyze the differences in the microclimate of classrooms among regions and urban and rural differences. Results: The average temperature in the middle of the classrooms tested on site was (16.47±4.72)℃, and the variance analysis showed that the difference between the regions was statistically significant ( F=27.80, P <0.01). Among them, Tianjin had the highest average temperature of (20.43± 2.12 )℃, followed by Liaoning (19.03±2.23)℃, Shanghai (15.33±5.32)℃, Anhui (12.79±1.74)℃, and Jiangxi (11.69± 1.68 )℃. Horizontal temperature difference was 0.90 (0.50, 1.60)℃, the vertical temperature difference was 0.20 (0.10,0.60)℃, the average relative humidity was (44.39±16.16)%, the wind speed was 0.03(0.01,0.11)m/s, and the differences among different provinces and cities were statistically significant ( H/F =40.62, 82.69, 95.06, 55.28, all P <0.01). The average CO 2 volume concentration in urban areas of Tianjin, Liaoning, and Shanghai was 0.21(0.16,0.30)%, and there was no statistically significant difference ( H=4.65, P =0.10). There were grade differences in relative humidity ( F =3.71, 6.21) and CO 2 ( H =14.72, 12.92) in the north and the south (all P <0.05). In addition, the temperature, relative humidity, wind speed and CO 2 in the middle of the classroom were 42.8%, 67.8%, 100.0% and 22.2% respectively. Conclusions The temperature in the middle of the classroom in the non centralized heating area is lower than the standard, the relative humidity of classroom in the centralized heating area is lower than the standard，and the CO 2 in the classroom in winter is lower than the standard. It is recommended to install heating facilities in schools with low temperatures to increase the temperature and increase the frequency of ventilation in classrooms or adopt mechanical ventilation strategies to reduce CO 2 volume concentration.

Objective: To evaluate the classroom environmental management and CO 2 volume concentration in primary and secondary schools from Liaoning, Tianjin, and Shanghai, thereby providing a scientific basis for developing targeted strategies to improve classroom air quality. Methods: From December 16 to 26, 2024, by using stratified random cluster sampling method, the questionnaire survey was conducted in 72 primary and secondary schools (24 each of primary, junior high, and regular high schools) across Liaoning, Tianjin and Shanghai. Information on heating, ventilation and other classroom environmental management was collected. Additionally, 108 classrooms were selected for on site microclimate measurements, including temperature, humidity, wind speed and CO 2 volume concentration. Univariate analysis and multiple linear regression models were employed to explore related factors of classroom CO 2 volume concentration. Results: Among the three provinces/municipalities, 20.8% of schools regularly monitored the microclimate. The overall compliance rate for classroom CO 2 volume concentration was 17.6%. Multiple linear regression analysis showed that CO 2 volume concentration in regular and junior high school classrooms were higher than in primary school classrooms ( β=0.067, 0.046, 95%CI =0.036-0.099, 0.013-0.080); classrooms ventilated regularly in the morning and afternoon had higher CO 2 volume concentration than those ventilated during every break between classes ( β=0.043, 95%CI = 0.007- 0.080); both temperature ( β=0.010, 95%CI =0.004-0.016) and humidity ( β=0.003, 95%CI =0.002-0.004) were positively correlated with CO 2 volume concentration (all P <0.05). Conclusions Excessive CO 2 volume concentration in primary and secondary school classrooms is a prominent issue, and ventilation frequency is a key intervenable factor for controlling CO 2 levels. It is recommended to promote ventilation during every break between classes as a core management measure and to emphasize air quality supervision in regular high school classrooms.

ObjectiveTo construct a risk prediction model for chronic atrophic gastritis （CAG） that combines disease and syndrome by integrating spleen deficiency and blood stasis syndrome scores， gastric stem cell marker analysis， and network pharmacology and to elucidate the mechanism link between spleen deficiency， blood stasis， and gastric stem cell dysregulation. MethodsA total of 60 patients were stratified into high-risk CAG， low-risk CAG， and non-atrophic groups based on the operative link for gastritis assessment （OLGA）/operative link for gastric intestinal metaplasia assessment （OLGIM） stages. General data and syndrome scores of the patients were collected. Immunohistochemistry was employed to measure the protein levels of leucine-rich repeat-containing G protein-coupled receptor 5 （LGR5）， trefoil factor 2 （TFF2）， and β-catenin in gastric mucosa across groups. Transcriptomic data （GSE130823） from the Gene Expression Omnibus （GEO） database were analyzed to validate the expression of these molecular markers at the gene level. A Firth penalized maximum likelihood logistic regression model was employed to integrate clinical， molecular， and TCM syndrome data to develop a CAG risk prediction model. Finally， network pharmacology analysis was conducted on spleen-invigorating herbs （Astragali Radix， Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma， and Dioscorea Rhizoma） and blood-activating herbs （Hedyotis diffusa， Salviae Miltiorrhizae Radix et Rhizoma， and Curcumae Rhizoma） to identify overlapping targets between these herbs and differentially expressed genes between low-grade intraepithelial neoplasia （LGIN） and gastritis， thereby clarifying the role of spleen deficiency and blood stasis in CAG progression from a pharmacological perspective. ResultsHigh-risk CAG patients exhibited higher blood stasis scores （4.60±1.50，2.62±1.32， P<0.01）， progressive nuclear accumulation of β-catenin （A 0.28-0.53， P<0.01）， and an increased LGR5⁺/TFF2⁺ ratio （A 1.02-1.92， P<0.01）. Blood stasis scores were correlated with LGR5/TFF2 imbalance （P=0.03） and activation of the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway （CTNNB1 increase， log₂=0.78）. The integrated prediction model （blood stasis score≥5 + β-catenin>0.38 + LGR5/TFF2>1.5） outperformed a pure biomarker approach ［Area Under the Curve （AUC） 0.92，0.89， ΔAUC=0.03， P=0.02］. Moreover， network pharmacology revealed 66 overlapping targets between spleen-invigorating/blood-activating herbs and LGIN， which were functionally enriched in mucosal repair and anti-oxidative stress， and negatively correlated with the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway （P<0.01）. ConclusionThis study developed an integrated risk prediction model for CAG by combining TCM spleen deficiency and blood stasis syndromes with gastric stem cell molecular markers. Furthermore， it proposed for the first time the "blood stasis-Wnt/β-catenin-stem cell axis" hypothesis， preliminarily elucidating that spleen deficiency and blood stasis may exacerbate gastric stem cell dysregulation and promote malignant transformation of CAG through hypoxia-induced Wnt activation. This provides a theoretical foundation and a translational tool for risk stratification and multi-target TCM intervention in CAG.

Objective:To summarize the clinical and genetic characteristics of 23 children with pathogenic ACAN gene variants, enhance the understanding of this disorder, and explore possible regulatory mechanisms. Methods:A retrospective case series summary.The clinical characteristics and genetic analysis results of 23 children with ACAN gene variants treated in the Department of Endocrinology, Genetics and Metabolism, Children′s Hospital of Soochow University from January 2016 and September 2024 were analyzed retrospectively.Transcriptome sequencing was performed on peripheral blood samples from 3 of affected children and 3 age-matched healthy children as controls.Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in the peripheral blood transcriptome profiles were identified.Gene ontology (GO) and Kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes (KEGG) pathway enrichment analyses were conducted to explore the potential signaling pathways involved. Results:Among the 23 cases, there were 13 males and 10 females, aged from 2 years and 8 months to 12 years old, with 11 cases presenting advanced bone age.Thirteen cases were treated with growth hormone (GH), including 6 cases who received concomitant gonadotropin-releasing hormone analogue therapy.The treatment duration ranged from 3 to 70 months, resulting in varying degrees of height improvement in all treated patients.Transcriptomic analysis identified 811 DEGs, with 516 up-regulated and 295 down-regulated.GO and KEGG enrichment analyses revealed that the heterozygous ACAN variants were significantly associated with FcγR-mediated phagocytosis, nuclear factor-κB signaling pathway, the intestinal immune network for IgA production, rheumatoid arthritis, and systemic lupus erythematosus signaling pathways. Conclusions:The predominant clinical manifestations of patients with ACAN gene variants are short stature and advanced bone age.Although GH provocation tests may indicate normal GH levels, GH therapy can be effective in improving height.Immune-related factors may play a role in the pathogenesis of this disorder.

Objective : To learn the epidemiological characteristics of acute hepatitis B in Jiangxi Province from 2014 to 2021, so as to provide insights into perfecting hepatitis B prevention and control strategy. Methods: Data pertaining to acute hepatitis B was collected through the Chinese Disease Prevention and Control Information System. The temporal, spatial and population distributions of acute hepatitis B were analyzed using a descriptive epidemiological method. The trend in incidence of acute hepatitis B was analyzed using annual percent change (APC). Results: Totally 8 890 cases of acute hepatitis B were reported in Jiangxi Province from 2014 to 2021, with the reported incidence showing a tendency towards a decline (APC=-11.730%, P<0.05). The average annual reported incidence rate of acute hepatitis B was 2.42/105. Acute hepatitis B occurred all the year round, without obvious seasonal characteristics. The top three highest incidence rates were reported in Pingxiang City (7.12/105), Ganzhou City (3.12/105) and Fuzhou City (2.87/105). The lowest and highest incidence rates of acute hepatitis B were seen among residents aged under 10 years (0.30/105) and 20-29 years (3.86/105). The incidence rate of males was higher than that of females (3.25/105 vs. 1.55/105, P<0.05). Farmers were predominant population affected acute hepatitis B (5 764 cases, 64.84%). Conclusions The incidence of acute hepatitis B showed a downward trend in Jiangxi Province from 2014 to 2021, and the disease predominantly affected young males, farmers. Health education should be strengthened, and hepatitis B vaccination coverage should be promoted.

Methods: The number of free inoculation of bivalent HPV vaccine for junior middle school girls in Jiangxi Province from August 1, 2023 to May 31, 2024 were collected by Jiangxi Provincial Immunization Planning Information System, and the cases of adverse events following immunization (AEFI) were collected by China Disease Prevention and Control Information System. A descriptive analysis was conducted to assess the incidence of AEFI among middle school girls who received free bivalent HPV vaccine. Results: Junior middle school girls in Jiangxi Province were vaccinated with free bivalent HPV vaccine for 1 061 023 doses, and 67 cases of AEFI were reported. Among the 67 cases, there were 50 cases of general reaction, 7 cases of abnormal reaction, 8 cases of psychogenic reaction and 2 cases of coupling syndrome. The reported incidence of AEFI, adverse reactions and psychogenic reactions were 6.31/100 000, 5.37/100 000 and 0.75/100 000 respectively. Adverse reactions were primarily general reactions (87.72%), with abnormal reactions counting for 12.28%. All AEFI cases were cured or improved, and no death or disability cases were reported. Conclusion The free vaccination of bivalent HPV for junior high school girls in Jiangxi Province is identified as highly safe, low adverse reaction reporting rate, and mainly general reactions, but attention should be paid to the prevention of psychogenic reactions in adolescents.

Gastroesophageal reflux disease （GERD） is a frequently and commonly occurring disease in clinic. In recent decades， with the development in pathophysiology and drug researches， modern medicine has achieved remarkable progress and results in diagnosis and treatment. However， the treatments for non-erosive reflux disease， refractory gastroesophageal reflux disease， proton pump inhibitor resistance， overlap of disease symptoms， and extraesophageal symptoms are limited and ineffective. Traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） was widely used in clinical practice， which has been proved effective in relieving symptoms and improving the quality of life. Sponsored by China Association of Chinese Medicine （CACM） and undertaken by the Spleen and Stomach Disease Branch of CACM， "the 12^th Youth Salon of Clinical Predominance Disease Series （GERD）" invited 18 authoritative digestive experts of TCM and western medicine to discuss "the difficulties of clinical diagnosis and treatment of GERD and TCM advantages". The focus issues such as modern medical diagnosis and treatment achievements and contributions， improvement and maintenance of symptoms， response to overlapping disease symptoms， reduction and withdrawal of acid suppressors， and treatment of extra-esophageal symptoms were discussed in depth. TCM and western medicine exchanged and complemented each other's strengths， combing the difficulties of modern medical diagnosis and treatment， which clarified the positioning and advantages of TCM and provided guidance for clinical and scientific research.
