N-acetyl-p-aminophenol （APAP） is an antipyretic analgesic commonly used in clinical practice， and APAP overdose can cause severe liver injury and even death. In recent years， the incidence rate of APAP-induced liver injury （AILI） tends to increase， and it has become the second most common cause of liver transplantation worldwide. Autophagy is a highly conserved catabolic process that removes unwanted cytosolic proteins and organelles through lysosomal degradation to achieve the metabolic needs of cells themselves and the renewal of organelles. A large number of studies have shown that autophagy plays a key role in the pathophysiology of AILI， involving the mechanisms such as APAP protein conjugates， oxidative stress， JNK activation， mitochondrial dysfunction， inflammatory response and apoptosis. This article elaborates on the biological mechanism of autophagy in AILI， in order to provide a theoretical basis for the treatment of AILI and the development of autophagy regulators.

Objective: To grasp the distribution characteristics and incidence trend of varicella in Shaanxi Province, so as to provide a reference for scientific and accurate prevention and control strategies. Methods: Data of 161 377 varicella cases in Shaanxi Province from 2016 to 2023 were collected and described from Surveillance Report Management System, a subsystem of National Disease Control and Prevention Information Systems of Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention. FlexScan 3.1.2 software was used to determine irregular spatial clustering, and spatial clustering area was detected for each year. Results: The incidence of varicella in Shaanxi Province showed a seasonal bimodal distribution with peaks from April to July (36.68%) and from October to next January (48.07%). The cases were mainly concentrated in the 3-12 years old group (60.50%), and there was a trend of high incidence age shift within the 0-19 age group from 2021. Most of the cases were students (62.40%) and preschool children ( 17.78 %). The outbreaks mainly occurred in primary schools (76.47%). The regional distribution was mainly concentrated in some areas of southern Shaanxi and Guanzhong. Through spatial analysis, the primary clusters were primarily concentrated in Ankang and Hanzhong cities in southern Shaanxi from 2016 to 2023, and the secondary clusters were mainly found in some areas of Guanzhong (Xi an, Baoji and Weinan cities). Conclusions Prevention and control of varicella should be focused on students and kindergartens aged 3-12 years in southern and Guanzhong areas of Shaanxi Province. Continuous varicella surveillance and vaccination measures should be carried out, and the two dose vaccination strategy and intensive vaccination of key groups should be actively promoted.

Objective The Network Enhancement Fusion(ne-SNF)method had no denoising strategy for the networks from each omics data type,which would weaken the power of network fusion.To address this problem,we proposed an improved Network Enhancement Fusion(improved ne-SNF)model,and further applied the method to subtype identification of papillary renal cell carcinoma.Methods We conducted simulation studies to compare the performances of the improved ne-SNF method with the ne-SNF and SNF method,and applied improved ne-SNF method to integrate multi-omics data of PRCC.Cox regression model was performed to evaluate the prognostic risk of different subtypes.Differentially expressed mRNAs(DEmRNAs),miRNAs(DEmiRNAs)and differentially methylated genes(DMGs)with different subtypes were screened.KEGG pathway analysis was performed for the overlapping genes of three gene sets.Finally,the immune cell infiltration analysis was performed for patients with different subtypes.Results The improved ne-SNF method outperformed both SNF and ne-SNF approach in various simulation scenarios.In subsequent subtyping application,PRCC patients were divided into high-risk and low-risk groups,and the risk of death was 7.727 times higher in the high-risk group than in the low-risk group.A total of 3511 DEmRNAs,96 DEmiRNAs and 3426 DMGs were identified.Among them,649 overlapping genes yielded 42 KEGG pathways with statistical differences.In addition,3 immune filtrating cells showed statistical significance.Conclusion The improved ne-SNF performed better than SNF and ne-SNF,and the identified subtypes of PRCC may provide important clues and basis for treatment of PRCC patient.

Objective　To explore the application of time series models based on meteorological factors in the population density of Aedes albopictus in Hainan Province, and to provide a scientific basis for the prevention and control of dengue fever in Hainan Province. Methods　The density of Aedes albopictus in different habitats in 18 cities and counties of Hainan Province from 2017 to 2022 was monitored monthly using the double-mosquito net trapping index and the Breteau index. Mann-Kendall trend test was used to analyze the temporal trends of the two density indices; Spearman's correlation analysis was employed to assess the correlation strength between each meteorological factor and the two indexes, eliminating unrelated variables, and further selecting the final variables through the full-subset regression method. Three time-series models were constructed for the two density indices, with root mean square error (RMSE), mean absolute error (MAE), and other accuracy metrics used to determine the optimal model; predictions for the density indices for 2023-2024 were made. All statistical analyses were performed in R (4.3.1). Results　The net trapping and Breteau indices showed an overall decrease over the years (Z-values of Mann-Kendall trend test were -6.15 and -4.03, respectively, and P<0.05). The meteorological factor most strongly associated with the trap index was the monthly average minimum temperature; monthly mean minimum temperature and monthly mean relative humidity were strongly correlated with the Breteau index. Based on various evaluation indicators, the multivariate time series model demonstrated the highest accuracy. The study predicts one to two peaks in both the trap index and Breteau Index for the years 2023 and 2024, with peak periods occurring between June to September and May to September, respectively. The predicted value for 2023 aligns with the measured value, demonstrating outstanding predictive accuracy. Conclusions　This study has introduced meteorological factors into the seasonal time series model, allowing for more accurate predictions of the density of Aedes albopictus in Hainan Province from 2023 to 2024, providing a model framework for the prevention and control of dengue fever in Hainan Province.

Objective:To explore the distribution and characteristics of microbiota in the lower reproductive tract of patients with cervical squamous cell carcinoma infected by human papilloma virus (HPV) 16 subtype.Methods:A prospective, cross-sectional study was conducted. A total of 6 patients with HPV16 single subtype positive cervical squamous cell carcinoma admitted to the Cancer Hospital of Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences from August 2019 to June 2020 were selected as cervical carcinoma group, and 6 healthy women who did not indicate abnormalities in thin-based layer cytology test (TCT) during the same period among the physical examination population and had HPV negative test result were selected as the healthy control group. A sterile cotton swab was used to collect secretions from the posterior cervical fornix in patients before antitumor treatment and healthy controls during physical examination. The high variable region of the 16S rRNA gene V1-V2 of the bacteria was amplified by using next generation sequencing (NGS), and then the distribution and characteristics of the bacteria were analyzed.Results:The age of cervical cancer group and the healthy control group was (51±8) years and (48±3) years, respectively, and the difference in age between the both groups was statistically significant ( t= 0.63, P= 0.540). The patients of both groups had reproductive history and no smoking experience. Alpha diversity analysis showed that compared with the healthy control group, the sobs ( t= 3.25, P= 0.009) and chao ( t= 2.91, P= 0.016) indexes were higher in cervical cancer group, and the differences were statistically significant. The shannon index was higher ( t= 2.07, P= 0.065) and simpson index was lower ( t= 1.74, P= 0.113) in cervical cancer group, while the difference was not statistically different. Data dimensionality reduction analysis in principal coordinate analysis (PCoA) based on bray-curtis distance showed that the difference in Beta diversity between the healthy control group and cervical cancer group was statistically significant ( R2= 0.154, P = 0.018). At the phylum level, the proportion of Firmicutes in cervical cancer group was lower than that in the healthy control group (30.21% vs. 68.28%), while the proportion of Bacteroidetes in cervical cancer group decreased slightly (6.87% vs. 8.11%); and the proportion of Actinobacteria (26.91% vs. 14.42%) and Proteobacteria (27.33% vs. 0.67%) had an increase in cervical cancer group. At the genus level, compared with the healthy control group, the proportion of Lactobacillus and Corynebacterium decreased in cervical cancer group, and loss of dominant flora could be detected; while Rhodococcus, Klebsiella and Aerococcus increased significantly in cervical cancer group. The bacteria species in cervical cancer group was increased compared with the healthy control group. Linear discriminant analysis (LDA) showed that Rhodococcus (LDA = 5.04), Klebsiella (LDA = 4.71), Enterobacter (LDA = 4.29), Ralstonia (LDA = 4.28), Ochrobactrum (LDA = 4.23) and Veillonella (LDA = 4.14) were the distinctive microbiota of cervical cancer group at the genus level. At the phylum level, Firmicutes (LDA = 5.23) in the healthy control group could be considered as a marker species. At the species level, the proportions of Rhodococcus ( P = 0.025), Ralstonia ( P = 0.045), Veillonella ( P = 0.044), Paraburkholderia ( P = 0.045), Pseudomonas ( P = 0.043) in cervical cancer group were increased compared with the healthy control group, and the differences were statistically significant. Conclusions:HPV16 single positive patients with cervical squamous cell carcinoma show the characteristics such as the increased diversity and richness of the lower reproductive tract microbiota compared with the healthy controls, while the abundance of Lactobacillus decreases. Rhodococcus and Klebsiella could serve as symbolic microbial in the lower reproductive tract. However, further studies still need to be verified.

Objective:To investigate the role of platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) membrane tamponade combined with silicone oil filling in the treatment of high myopia macular hole (HMMH) with retinal detachment (RD).Methods:A randomized controlled study was conducted.A total of 52 patients (52 eyes) with HMMH with RD were enrolled at the Eye Center, Renmin Hospital of Wuhan University from September 2021 to April 2023.The patients were randomly divided into three groups according to the random number table method.All patients in the three groups underwent standard three-channel 23-gauge pars plana vitrectomy.In the internal limiting membrane (ILM) peeling group including 18 cases (18 eyes), the ILM was peeled intraoperatively.In the ILM tamponade group including 16 cases (16 eyes), the ILM flap was inverted and filled into the macular hole (MH).In the PRF tamponade group including 18 cases (18 eyes), the MH was filled with PRF.Intraocular pressure measurement, best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) measurement, and central macular thickness (CMT) measured by optical coherence tomography were performed preoperatively and 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, and 6 months postoperatively.Superficial retinal vessel density (SVD) and deep retinal vessel density (DVD) were determined by optical coherence tomography angiography before surgery and 6 months after surgery.The efficacy of the procedure was determined at six months postoperatively, and the rates of MH closure and retinal reattachment were compared among the three groups.This study adhered to the Declaration of Helsinki and the study protocol was approved by the Ethics Committee of Renmin Hospital of Wuhan University (No.2022-1-X-53).Written informed consent was obtained from each subject before any medical examination.Results:At 6 months postoperatively, the MH closure rates in the ILM peeling, ILM tamponade, and PRF tamponade groups were 83.3%(15/18), 87.5%(14/16), and 94.4%(17/18), respectively, without significant differences among them (fit χ2=1.180, P>0.05).Furthermore, the retinas of all groups were reattached.The postoperative BCVA of ILM peeling, ILM tamponade, and PRF tamponade groups were elevated compared with before surgery, and the differences were statistically significant (all at P<0.05).At 6 months after surgery, the CMT of the PRF tamponade group was significantly thicker than that of the ILM peeling and ILM tamponade groups (both at P<0.05).The CMT of the three groups at different time points after surgery was significantly decreased compared with before surgery, with statistically significant differences (all at P<0.05).SVD and DVD of the three groups at 6 months postoperatively were higher compared with before surgery, with statistically significant differences (all at P<0.05).No serious complications such as endophthalmitis and vitreous haemorrhage occured during treatment and follow-up.Müller cell gliosis was observed in 4 eyes in the ILM tamponade group, and no Müller cell gliosis eyes were seen in the remaining two groups. Conclusions:PRF tamponade combined with silicone oil filling can promote MH healing and retinal reattachment, improve visual acuity and blood flow density in patients suffering from HMMH with RD, and is a safe and effective surgical procedure.

Objective To investigate the therapeutic efficacy of combining fractional CO2 laser with triam-cinolone acetonide and econazole nitrate cream for the treatment of vulvar lichen sclerosus(VLS).Methods The clinical data of 113 patients with vulvar lichen sclerosus(VLS)were retrospectively analyzed.The patients were divided into an observation group and a control group based on different treatments received.Clinical symptoms(vulvar itching,painful intercourse)and signs(vulvar skin color,vulvar skin elasticity,range of vulvar lesions)were scored using the Cattaneo scoring criteria.The Cattaneo scores before and after treatment were recorded for each patient,and comparisons were made between groups in terms of Cattaneo scores and occurrence of adverse reac-tions.The therapeutic efficacy of fractional CO2 laser combined with triamcinolone acetonide and econazole nitrate cream was evaluated.Results After three treatments,both groups exhibited a significant decrease in Cattaneo scores,with a statistically significant difference(P<0.05).The study group demonstrated a significantly greater reduction in Cattaneo scores compared to the control group(P<0.05).Furthermore,the cure rate of VSL was higher in the study group than in the control group(25.86%vs.10.91%,P<0.05).Regarding adverse effects,there was no statistically significant difference between the two groups(P>0.05).Conclusions Compared to the single application of fractional CO2 laser,the combination of fractional CO2 laser with triamcinolone acetonide and econazole nitrate cream demonstrates enhanced efficacy in alleviating signs and symptoms among patients with vulvar sclerosing tundra,while minimizing adverse reactions.This approach holds significant potential for clinical implementation.

The incidence rate of drug-induced liver injury （DILI） is increasing year by year with unknown mechanisms， and the treatment methods for DILI mainly include drugs， liver support systems， and liver transplantation， all of which have certain limitations. Therefore， the search for safer and more effective treatment methods has become a research hotspot at present. Studies have shown that mesenchymal stem cells and their exosomes can alleviate liver injury by reducing liver inflammation， promoting hepatocyte proliferation and regeneration， inhibiting the apoptosis of hepatocytes， improving oxidative stress， and regulating immunity. This article briefly reviews the role of mesenchymal stem cells and their exosomes in the treatment of DILI， so as to provide a reference for further research.
