Objective To understand the epidemiological characteristics of road traffic accident injuries in Beijing can provide a theoretical basis for improving the pre-hospital emergency service capabilities and levels,and increasing patient survival rates while reducing disability,mortality rates.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the medical records of 9207 patients who made pre-hospital emergency calls due to road traffic accident injuries at the Beijing Emergency Medical Center in 2023 to understand the patients' age,gender,injury time,injury location,injury degree and other characteristics.Results Traumatic diseases ranked first in the classification of emergency medical conditions in Beijing.Among them,road traffic accidents account for 37％.The ratio of male to female patients was 1.32∶1.The largest number of patients were aged 31-40,accounting for nearly 25％.The proportion of underage patients and those aged 71 and above was 12.16％.The differences in gender and age distribution were statistically significant,while the differences in gender distribution among different age groups were not statistically significant.Road traffic accident injuries occured most frequently in September and least in January.There were more cases in summer and autumn,and fewer in winter and spring.The most common injury sites in road traffic accidents were limbs/skin and head and neck,accounting for 81.06％.The patients with moderate severity of injuries were the most numerous,accounting for 85.29％.Conclusion To avoid road traffic accidents,prevention should be the priority.It is necessary to strengthen the joint governance of multiple departments and minimize the occurrence of road traffic accident from the source.Pre-hospital emergency care must focus on key populations and key seasons,strengthen professional skills training and resource allocation,ensure efficient and smooth connection between pre-hospital and in-hospital care.Popularize and publicize the importance of self-rescue and mutual rescue,promote first aid knowledge and skills training for the public,and create a social atmosphere where"rescue is right beside us".

Objective To investigate the dynamic characteristics of intestinal pathological development at different time points in a mouse model of colitis-associated colon cancer.Methods A colitis-cancer model was established in C57BL/6 mice using azoxymethane(AOM)combined with dextran sulfate sodium(DSS).Samples were collected at 7,10,and 14 weeks post-modeling and the spleen index,colon length,mass,and colon mass per unit length were measured.Histopathological changes in the colon were observed by hematoxylin and eosin and Masson staining.Expression levels of the cancer stem cell marker CD44 and Wnt signaling pathway genes Wnt2b,Lrp5,Axin2,and Znrf3 at different pathological stages were detected by reverse transcription quantitative real time PCR.Cancer-associated fibroblasts(FAP),CD44,the proliferation marker Ki67,and goblet cell MUC2 protein were detected by multiple immunofluorescence histochemistry(mIHC)and immunofluorescence.In addition,colon organoids were isolated from model mice at ten and fourteen weeks and cultured in vitro to observe changes in organoid morphology and marker expression.Results AOM/DSS-induced mice showed reduced,distorted,and branched colon crypt structures with a few collagen fibers at 7 weeks,and varying degrees of colon intraepithelial neoplasia,with an increased proportion of high-grade intraepithelial neoplasia over time and increased collagen fiber staining at ten and fourteen weeks.mRNA levels of CD44 and Wnt2b in the colon were significantly increased(P＜0.05)and Axin2 was decreased(P＜0.01)in model mice compared with control mice at fourteen week,and levels of Wnt2b,Lrp5,and Znrf3 were increased compared with seven-week mice(P＜0.01,P＜0.05,P＜0.01),and Axin2 was decreased(P＜0.01).mIHC staining showed increased expression of FAP and CD44 in the colon in model mice at ten and fourteen weeks,with decreased MUC2 expression.Colon organoids showed cystic dilation,especially at fourteen weeks,with more prominent expression of Ki67 and CD44.Conclusions The AOM/DSS-induced mouse model exhibited chronic colonic inflammation,low-grade intraepithelial neoplasia,and high-grade intraepithelial neoplasia at seven,ten,and fourteen weeks,respectively.The pathological microenvironment was characterized by fibroblast activation and abnormal proliferation of epithelial cells.

African swine fever virus (ASFV) infection leads to a mortality rate of up to 100%, causing devastating disasters to the pig industry. Understanding the ASFV infection and replication is therefore of great importance. ASFV has more than 150 open reading frames, among which the inner coat protein p17 encoded by the D117L gene is involved in the formation of the icosahedral structure of the virus. However, little is known about the mechanism how p17 regulates host cell function. In this study, the potential host proteins interacting with ASFV p17 were screened by immunoprecipitation technique combined with protein profiling analysis. The interactions of p17 with mitochondrial membrane protein TOMM70 and heat shock protein HSPA8 were confirmed by co-immunoprecipitation technique and laser confocal experiments. This study provides important information for further exploring the function of p17 during ASFV infection.
