ObjectiveTo find out whether there is any difference in the monitoring results of mosq-ovitraps placed in different orientations in multi-storey residential areas, so as to provide a scientific basis for routine and emergency monitoring of Aedes albopictus with mosq-ovitraps in residential areas. MethodsFrom July 6th to October 26th 2023, one mosquito ovitrap was set up in each of the 4 orientations of east, south, west and north around the buildings in a multi-storey residential area in Jinhui Town, Fengxian District, Shanghai. Data was collected and recorded 72 hours after placement. The chi-square test was used to compare the mosquito ovitrap indices (MOIs) of two independent samples, and the Kruskal⁃Wallis H test was used to compare the MOIs of multiple independent samples. ResultsAfter 16 weeks of surveillance, 997 mosquito ovitraps were recovered, of which 211 were positive, with the mosquito ovitrap index (MOI) of 21.16% and the Aedes albopictus density index of 1.03 mosquitoes·ovitrap^-1. The MOIs were higher in September (24.22%) and October (23.96%), and the MOIs in the west, south and north within the two months were all above 20.00%. From July to October, the MOIs in the east, west, south and north were 20.70%, 22.20%, 25.50% and 16.20%, respectively, and the difference in MOIs among the 4 orientations was not statistically significant (χ²=6.647, P=0.084). Stratified analysis by month showed that in August, the south side of the multi-storey residential areas had the highest MOI (31.30%), the north side had the lowest MOI (1.30%), and there was a statistically significant difference in MOI in the east, west, south and north (χ²=25.986, P<0.001). In October, the MOI in the west was the highest (33.30%) and the MOI in the east was the lowest (6.30%), the difference in MOIs of the 4 orientations was statistically significant (χ²=12.007, P=0.007). The MOIs in the south side of the building in the outskirts of the residential area from the 1st week in July to the 4th week in October was lower (19.20%) than that in the south side of the inner building (31.70%), and the difference in MOI was statistically significant (χ²=5.118, P=0.024). ConclusionThe study of MOI in different orientations in a multi-storey residential area is a preliminary exploration based on field work, and the results show that there is a difference in MOIs in different orientations during the peak breeding period of mosquitoes. Further indicators such as temperature, humidity and wind speed in different orientations can be collected to explore the influencing factors of MOIs.

OBJECTIVE To understand the development status and existing problems of traditional Chinese medicine（TCM） pharmacists in public TCM hospitals in China， aiming to provide suggestions for the competent departments to formulate management policies for TCM pharmacists and promote the healthy development of TCM. METHODS The data on the number and professional titles of TCM pharmacists in public TCM hospitals in China from 2019 to 2023 were collected. Descriptive analysis was employed to analyze the number， distribution and professional titles of TCM pharmacists in public TCM hospitals across the country， and to measure the quantity shortfalls of the number of TCM pharmacists in these hospitals. RESULTS From 2019 to 2023， the number of TCM pharmacists in public TCM hospitals in China grew slowly， with an average annual growth rate of 2.56%. However， the proportion of TCM pharmacists to the total number of pharmacists in public TCM hospitals gradually decreased， with an average annual growth rate of －0.65%. In terms of hospital grades， the number of TCM pharmacists in tertiary public TCM hospitals showed positive growth， while those in secondary and primary public TCM hospitals showed negative growth. In terms of hospital types， the average annual growth rate of TCM pharmacists in TCM hospitals was 2.22%， in integrated Chinese and Western medicine hospitals it was 7.97%， and in ethnic minority medicine hospitals it was 2.74%. The development of TCM pharmacists in different provinces was uneven. The annual growth rate of TCM pharmacists in Guizhou exceeded 10%， while the growth rate in Hunan and Heilongjiang was negative. In 2023， the number of TCM pharmacists per thousand population in public TCM hospitals was 0.03， indicating a relatively low staffing level. The professional titles of TCM pharmacists in public TCM hospitals were mainly primary and E-mail：601907549@qq.com intermediate， with a total of 67.33%. According to the calculation that the proportion of TCM pharmacists to pharmacists was not less than 60%， public TCM hospitals and hospitals of integrated TCM and Western medicine should be reconfigured with TCM pharmacists 6 212 and 1 288 people， respectively. CONCLUSIONS The number of TCM pharmacists in public TCM hospitals is growing slowly， with insufficient staffing levels， relatively low professional titles， and uneven distribution and development across provinces. It is suggested that relevant competent departments strengthen policy guidance， increase the attention given by the state level to TCM pharmacists， strengthen the construction of the talent team for TCM pharmacists， improve the quality and optimize the allocation of TCM pharmacist talents in order to promote the high-quality development of TCM services.

Objective To evaluate the rabbit modle of frozen shoulder induced by persistent strain injuries and ice com-pression.Methods Twelve clean,healthy male New Zealand rabbits with a mass of(2 500±500)g were selected and randomly divided into a blank group and a control group with 6 rabbits in each group.In the control group,the rabbits were modeled with persistent strain injuries and ice compression,the general conditions of the rabbits and the active and passive activities of the shoulder joint were observed and their body weights were recorded.MRI was performed on the affected shoulder joints at 6 d and 29 d after modelling to observe the fluid and soft tissue;HE staining was used to observe the morphology of the rabbit bi-ceps longus tendon and the synovial membrane of the joint capsule;Masson staining was used to observe the fibrous deposits of the rabbit biceps longus tendon and the synovial membrane of the joint capsule,and the fibrous deposits were analysed semi-quantitatively by Image J software.Results Six days after the end of modeling,the active movement of the shoulder joints in the control group was limited,the passive movement was not significantly limited,and they walked with a limp;29 days after the end of the modeling,the active and passive movements of the shoulder joints in the model group were severely limited.Com-pared with the blank group(2.50±0.14)kg,the body weight of the model group(2.20±0.17)kg was significantly reduced(P＜0.01).MRI showed that 6 days after modelling,the muscles around the shoulder joint were not smooth in shape,the joint cap-sule structure was narrowed and a large amount of fluid was seen in the joint cavity;29 days after modelling,the muscles around the shoulder joint were rough in shape,structure of the joint capsule was unclear and the fluid in the joint cavity was reduced compared with 6 days after modelling.Pathological staining showed that the long-headed biceps tendon fibres in the control group were disorganised,curled or even broken,and the synovial tissue of the joint capsule was heavily vascularised,with col-lagen fibre deposits and severe inflammatory cell infiltration.The fiber deposition of the long head of biceps brachii in the mod-el group[(23.58±3.41)％,(27.56±3.70)％]and synovial tissue[(41.78±5.59)％,(62.19±7.54)％]were significantly higher than those in the blank group[(1.79±1.03)％,(1.29±0.63)％]at 7 and 30 days after modeling and synovial tissue fiber de-position[(8.15±3.61)％,(11.29±7.10)％],as shown by the semi-quantitative analysis of Masson staining results by Image J software.And the longer the time,the more severe the fibrosis(P＜0.01).Conclusion The behavioral,imaging and pathological findings showed that the rabbit frozen shoulder model with persistent strain injuries and ice compression is consistent with the clinical manifestations and pathogenesis of periarthritis,making it an ideal method for periarthritis research.

Objective To compare screw versus Kirschner wire fixation in the treatment of lateral humeral condyle frac-tures in children.Methods A systematic search was conducted in PubMed,Embase,the Cochrane library,Web of Science,China National Knowledge Internet(CNKI),Wanfang Datebase from in ception to February 2022.Studies comparing screws and Kirschner wire fixation in the treatment of lateral humeral condyle fractures in children were included.Outcome measures included and excluded by a set of inclusion and exclusion criteria and evaluated for their quality,their excellent and good rate of fracture healing,malunion,delayed union or nonunion,infection,limitation of elbow flexion or extension(＞10°)were ex-tracted and analyzed using software Rev Man 5.3.Results A total of 9 retrospective studies involving 647 patients were includ-ed,with 255 patients in the screw fixation group(including screw combined with Kirschner wire)and 392 patients in the Kirschner wire fixation group.Meta analysis showed the following:infection rate in the screw group was significantly lower than that in the Kirschner wire group[OR=0.22,95％CI(0.09,0.56),P=0.001].There were no significant differences between the 2 groups in excellent and good rate of fracture healing,malunion rate(P＞0.05).Subgroup analysis showed that infection rate in the screw-only group was significantly lower than that in the Kirschner wire group[OR=0.18,95％CI(0.05,0.65),P=0.009].Conclusion For lateral humeral condyle fractures,Screw fixation alone had a lower infection rate than kirschner wire fixation and screw combined with Kirschner wire fixation.There were no significant differences in the excellent and good rate of fracture healing,malunion.In terms of postoperative efficacy and safety of internal fixation,orthopaedic surgeons are more like-ly to recommend screws for fixation of lateral humeral condyle fractures in children.

Objective:To investigate the expression of miR-1247-5p(miR-1247-5p)in breast cancer tissues,and to analyze its predicted target genes by bioinformatics.Methods:The cancerous tissues and adjacent tissues were collected from 104 patients with breast cancer who received surgical treatment in our unit from June 2019 to December 2020.The relative expression of miR-1247-5p was detected by RT-PCR.The expression of miR-1247-5p in cancer tissues of patients with different clinicopathological characteristics was compared.The target genes of miR-1247-5p were predicted.The DAVID database was used for function and pathway enrichment of miR-1247-5p target genes.The String database was utilized to analyze the interactions of miR-1247-5p target genes.Results:The expression level of miR-1247-5p in breast cancer tissue was lower than that in adjacent tissue(P＜0.05).There were 38 potential target genes of miR-1247-5p,and the functions of its target genes are mainly concentrated in transcriptional regulation of RNA polymerase Ⅱ promoter,gene expression/transcriptional regulation,plasma membrane portion,synaptosome,protein binding,and poly(A)RNA binding,etc.The involved pathways were mainly enriched in cancer pathway,interaction between cytokines and cytokine receptors,and Phosphatidylinositol 3 kinase(PI3K)-protein kinase B(Akt)signal pathway,etc.Phosphatase and tensin homology(PTEN),epithelial growth factor receptor(EGFR),pseudouridine synthase 1(PUS1)encoding protein were found in the key node positions of miR-1247-5p gene target gene protein-protein interaction networks(PPI).Conclusion:miR-1247-5p is down-regulated in breast can-cer tissues,and its target genes are enriched in multiple biological processes and tumor-related signal transduction pathways.miR-1247-5p may participate in the occurrence and development of breast cancer by regulating the expression of its target genes.

Transient perivascular inflammation of the carotid artery (TIPIC) syndrome is a relatively rare disease, and ultrasound is the first screening method for initial diagnosis of the disease. Contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) has unique advantages in the follow-up of patients with TIPIC syndrome. This paper reports a patient with TIPIC syndrome who was treated with acute left neck pain. The inflammation was significantly relieved and subsided after treatment with non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. The ultrasound changes of carotid artery lesions in this patient during follow-up were analyzed, and the application value of CEUS in the follow-up diagnosis of this disease was summarized, in the hope of providing clinical reference.

Objective:To analyze the status quo of intelligent health management services in health examination institutions in Shanxi Province.Methods:This study is a cross-sectional study. In October 2023, 292 health examination institutions in 11 cities of Shanxi Province were surveyed by convenient sampling with the help of “Questionnaire star” to investigate the health examination (management) institutions to carry out smart health management services from January to December 2022. It was mainly divided into three aspects: pre-inspection, in-inspection and post-inspection, including 6 dimensions, with a total of 21 items. A total of 300 questionnaires were distributed in this survey, and 292 were effectively collected, with an effective recovery rate of 97.33%. The 292 questionnaires were divided and compared according to four regions: the north of Shanxi Province, the middle of Shanxi Province, the south of Shanxi Province and the southeast of Shanxi Province.Results:The health examination (management) institutions were distributed in 11 prefectures and cities in Shanxi Province, and there were 56 (19.2%) tertiary health examination (management) institutions. There were 178 government organizations (61.0%) and 114 social organizations (39.0%). There were 256 (87.7%) that carried out smart health management services; among them, 229 (78.4%) had smart management service systems, and 58 (19.9%) had physical examination centers with smart health management clinics. A total of 108 institutions (36.99%) carried out follow-up visits after intelligent screening. The prevalence of intelligent referrals were 63.3%, 59.6%, 78.0% and 85.2% in the north of Shanxi Province, the middle of Shanxi Province, the south of Shanxi Province and the southeast of Shanxi Province, respectively ( χ2=14.02, P<0.05). The prevalence of self-service in the north of Shanxi Province, the middle of Shanxi Province, the south of Shanxi Province and the southeast of Shanxi Province were 39.2%, 52.3%, 62.0% and 37.0%, respectively ( χ2=9.75, P<0.05). Conclusions:The development of intelligent health management in health examination (management) institutions in Shanxi Province is good, and the service scale continues to grow, but the problem of uneven development among regions is severe. In addition, the proportion of institutions providing services through information technology is not high, and the rate of intelligent management outpatient service, intelligent post-examination follow-up and intelligent physical examination service satisfaction is low.

Objective:To assess the efficacy of high-flow nasal cannula oxygen therapy for the respiratory support after tracheal extubation under general anesthesia in neonates.Methods:This was a prospective randomized controlled study. Ninety-four neonates undergoing general surgery under general anesthesia with endotracheal intubation and endotracheal tube removal following surgery from December 2022 to November 2023 in the Third Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University were selected and divided into 2 groups ( n=47 each) by the random number table method: conventional oxygen therapy group (group C) and high-flow nasal cannula oxygen therapy group (group H). After the endotracheal tube was removed, group H underwent high-flow nasal cannula oxygen therapy: oxygen flow was 2 L·kg -1·min -1, the concentration and humidity of oxygen were both 100%, and the temperature was 37 ℃. Group C underwent conventional mask ventilation with the oxygen flow rate 5 L/min, oxygen concentration 100%, ventilation frequency about 25-35 times/min. The outcome measures were recorded from the time after extubation to the time before discharge from the operating theatre. The main outcome measures were the minimum SpO 2 and hypoxemia (SpO 2<90%), choking, laryngospasm and asphyxia. The secondary outcome measures were respiratory rate (immediate extubation, immediate discharge), minimum HR, and time to discharge from the operating theatre. Results:Compared with group C, the lowest SpO 2 was significantly increased, the incidence of hypoxemia and respiratory rate immediately after discharge from the operating room was decreased ( P<0.05), and no significant changes were found in the incidence of choking, laryngospasm and asphyxia, the lowest heart rate, respiratory rate immediately after tracheal extubation and time to discharge from the operating theatre in group H( P>0.05). Conclusions:High-flow nasal cannula oxygen therapy can improve oxygenation and significantly reduce the risk of hypoxemia when used for the respiratory support after tracheal extubation under general anesthesia in neonates.

Objective:To investigate the effectiveness and safety of domestic upper gastrointestinal endoscopic ultrasound (EUS).Methods:A total of 160 patients undergoing EUS at Shengjing Hospital of China Medical University (Center1) and Shenzhen People's Hospital (Center 2) from March to July 2021 were randomly selected by stratified blocked randomization, and were treated with SonoScape EG-UG5T (the test group) or Fujifilm EG-580UT (the control group). The primary outcome was the ultrasound image quality excellence rate, and the comparison was verified by non-inferiority. The secondary outcomes were the endoscopic image quality excellence rate, the operational performance excellence rate, and the system stability evaluation. The safety evaluation was based on the occurrence of intraoperative and postoperative adverse events in the subjects.Results:In the intention-to-treat analysis set (ITT), the excellence rate of ultrasound image quality in the test group and the control group was 100.0% (78/78) and 100.0% (77/77), respectively. The rate difference between the two groups was 0.0% (95% CI: -4.7%-4.8%). In the per protocol analysis set (PPS), the excellence rate of ultrasound image quality in the test group and the control group was 100.0% (78/78) and 100.0% (75/75), respectively. The rate difference between the two groups was 0.0% (95% CI: -4.7%-4.9%). The lower limit of the confidence interval of ultrasound image quality excellence rate of both data sets was greater than the non-inferiority threshold value of -8%, which inferred that the non-inferiority hypothesis of the test machine non-inferior to the control machine was valid. The endoscopic image quality excellence rate and the operational performance excellence rate of the test group and the control group was 100.0% in both the ITT and PPS analyses, and there was no statistically significant difference between the two groups ( P=1.000). The system instability event rate was 0.0% (0/78) in the test group and 3.9% (3/77) in the control group ( P=0.120). No adverse event occurred in either group. Conclusion:The domestic upper gastrointestinal endoscopic ultrasound is standard-compliant for clinical application under normal conditions in terms of effectiveness, safety, and stability.
