Objective To analyze the spatiotemporal distribution characteristics of and trends in the disease burden of dengue fever in China from 2005 to 2024, so as to provide insights into formulation of dengue fever control strategies. Methods Data pertaining to dengue fever cases in China from 2005 to 2024 were retrieved from the Infectious Disease Reporting Information System of Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention, and city population, gross domestic product (GDP), GDP per capita, and consumer price index in China were captured from the China Statistical Yearbook, National Bureau of Statistics of China, the China City Statistical Yearbook, and bureaus of statistics in each city. The disability-adjusted life years (DALYs), years of life lost (YLLs), and years lived with disability (YLDs) due to dengue fever were calculated in China from 2005 to 2024. The direct and indirect economic burdens of dengue fever were estimated to calculate the total economic burden. The trends in the disease burden of dengue fever were estimated in China from 2005 to 2024 using a Joinpoint regression model with the software Joinpoint 4.9.0.0, and the average annual percent change (AAPC) and its 95% confidence interval (CI) were calculated. In addition, the DALYs rate and economic burden of dengue fever in China were subjected to global and local spatial autocorrelation analyses using the software ArcGIS 10.8. Results The gross DALYs due to dengue fever were 5 558 person-years in China from 2005 to 2024, and the DALYs of dengue fever increased from 36 person-years in 2005 to 899 person-years in 2024, with an increase of 23.97 folds. The average annual DALYs rate of dengue fever was 0.02 person-years/10⁵ in China during the 20-year study period from 2005 to 2024, and the DALYs rate peaked in 2014 (0.13 person-years/10⁵) and reduced during the COVID-19 pandemic from 2020 to 2022. YLDs were the main contributor of DALYs due to dengue fever in China from 2005 to 2024, with a total of 5 354 person-years, accounting for 96.33% (5 354 person-years/5 558 person-years) of the gross DALYs. The gross DALYs of dengue fever were 2 982 person-years among men (53.66%) and 2 575 person-years among women (46.34%) in China from 2005 to 2024, and high DALYs of dengue fever were measured among residents at ages of 15 to 30 years (1 639 person-years), 30 to 45 years (1 857 person-years), and 45 to 60 years (1 204 person-years), respectively, accounting for 84.56% (4 700 person-years/5 558 person-years) of total DALYs due to dengue fever in China. The total economic burden of dengue fever was estimated to be 612 million Yuan in China from 2005 to 2024, with an average annual economic burden of 30.584 million Yuan. The economic burden of dengue fever increased from 196 000 Yuan in 2005 to 121 million Yuan in 2024 in China, with an increase of 616.35 folds, and the per capita economic burden increased from 3 322.21 Yuan in 2005 to 4 940.01 Yuan in 2024, with an increase of 48.70%. Dengue fever cases were reported in 274 cities (counties) across 31 provinces (autonomous regions, municipalities) in China from 2005 to 2024, with relatively higher DALYs in Guangdong Province and Yunnan Province. Spatial autocorrelation analysis revealed that the disease burden of dengue fever appeared positive aggregation in Chinese cities (counties) from 2005 to 2024 (global Moran’s I = 0.045, Z = 2.24, P < 0.05), with high-high clusters mainly concentrated in the Pearl River Delta region in Guangdong Province and Xishuangbanna Dai Autonomous Prefecture and Pu’er City in Yunnan Province, and the total economic burden (global Moran’s I = 0.032, Z = 9.55, P < 0.001), per capita economic burden (global Moran’s I = 0.208, Z = 27.34, P < 0.001), and the proportion of total economic burdens in GDP in 2024 (global Moran’s I = 0.017, Z = 5.91, P < 0.001) all presented positive aggregation, with relatively higher total economic burdens mainly concentrated in Guangdong Province and Yunnan Province. Joinpoint regression analysis showed that the gross DALYs rates of dengue fever appeared an overall tendency towards a rise in China from 2005 to 2024 (AAPC = 16.24%, P = 0.029), and the DALYs rate presented an overall tendency towards a rise among both men (AAPC = 14.75%, P = 0.028) and women (AAPC = 14.93%, P = 0.037) during the study period. The per capita direct economic burden appeared an overall tendency towards a rise among dengue fever patients in China from 2005 to 2024 (AAPC = 2.16%, P = 0.012); however, there was no significant difference in the trends in the per capita indirect economic burden (AAPC = 0.46%, P = 0.470). In addition, the DALYs rate of dengue fever appeared a tendency towards a rise in 84.67% (232/274) of cities (counties) in China from 2005 to 2024, and the per capita economic burden appeared a tendency towards a rise in 85.40% (234/274) of cities (counties), while the DALYs rate and per capita economic burden of dengue fever appeared a tendency towards a rise in 77.01% (211/274) of cities (counties). Conclusions The disease burden of dengue fever significantly increased in China from 2005 to 2024. It is recommended to reinforce integrated dengue fever control in high-risk areas and among high-risk populations, and to improve the surveillance of imported dengue fever cases and vector control.

OBJECTIVE T o compare the biological characteristics,drug resistance and pathogenicity between two strains of mucoid Pseudomonas aeruginosa and the standard strain PAO1.METHODS The strains were identified,and biofilms were detected by 96-well plates method.The bacterial drug resistance was detected by fully automatic drug susceptibility analysis system,the expression levels of RNA of virulence factors were detected by real-time fluorescent quantitative polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR);the models of rats with pneumonia infection were established through liquid aerosol lung delivery method,the survival status of the rats was observed,and the lev-els of cytokines in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid(BALF)were detected.RESULTS NY4593,NY4605 and PAO1 strains were successfully isolated and identified.NY4593 and NY4605 showed high-yield biofilms,while PAO1 showed low-yield biofilms.The drug resistance rates of NY4593 and NY4605 were remarkably higher than those of the PAO1.The expression levels of exoT and exoY gene RNA of the NY4593 and NY4605 strains were higher than those of the PAO1 strains(P＜0.05);the expression level of exoS gene RNA of the NY4605 was lower than that of the PAO1(P＜0.05).Under the same infection dose,the PAO1 showed more powerful pathogenicity,and the secretion volumes of inflammatory factors interleukin-6(IL-6),interleuki-1β(IL-1β)and interleukin-17A(IL-17A)of the PAO1 were(2858.00±150.30)pg/ml,(7821.00±761.20)pg/ml and(1079.00±225.40)pg/ml respectively,remarkably higher than those of the NY4593 and NY4605(P＜0.05).CONCLUSION The clini-cal mucoid NY4593 and NY4605 remarkably differ from PAO1 in biology and pathogenicity.The study may facilitate deep understanding of the mechanisms of PA infection and provide guidance for clinical treatment,prevention and control.

Objective To explore whether ferroptosis is involved in α-amanitin-induced hepatocyte in-jury by detecting iron deposition in mice liver tissues,oxidative stress indicators in hepatocytes and L-02 cells,and expressions of ferroptosis-related proteins after α-amanitin exposure.Methods The poi-soning models of α-amanitin C57BL/6J mice and L-02 cell were established.The Lillie ferrous iron staining and Prussian blue staining were used to detect iron deposition;the kits were applied to detect the levels of superoxide dismutase(SOD),catalase(CAT),malondialdehyde(MDA),and glutathione(GSH).Western blotting was performed to analyze expressions of p53,solute carrier family 7 member 11(SLC7A11),and glutathione peroxidase 4(GPX4).Results Compared with the control group,after α-amanitin exposure,positive cell rates of Fe2+and Fe3+in mice liver tissues increased significantly.In the liver tissues of medium(0.35 mg/kg)and high(0.45 mg/kg)dose groups and L-02 cells treated with 1 μmol/L α-amanitin,the level of GSH decreased,the level of MDA increased,and the activities of SOD and CAT decreased significantly.In addition,α-amanitin upregulated the expression of p53 in a concentration-and time-dependent manner and inhibited the expressions of SLC7A11 and GPX4.Con-clusion Ferroptosis plays an important role in α-amanitin-induced hepatocyte injury.Abnormalities of ferroptosis-related indicators can provide references for the forensic identification of α-amanitin poisoning.

Miao medicine is guided by the medical theories of the Miao ethnic group,and the drugs used by the Miao people are derived from natural plants and animals for the prevention and treatment of diseases and protection of health.In recent years,a large number of clinical studies have shown good clinical efficacy of traditional Miao medicine in the treatment of prostatic diseases,with the advantages of easy availability,low price,and minimal adverse reactions.However,currently no systematic literature review has been reported on the treatment of prostatic diseases with Miao medicine.This article focuses on the commonly used Miao drugs recorded in the Chinese Materia Medica-Miao Medicine,with a systematic review of relevant literature retrieved on the treatment of prostate disea-ses with Miao medicine in recent years and a summarization of the advances in the studies of its pharmacological effects,mechanisms of action and clinical application,aiming to provide some new perspectives and ideas for further academic research and clinical develop-ment of Miao medicine.

Objective To determine the clinical effect of warmed iodophor for preoperative disinfection in elderly patients undergoing laparoscopic hysterectomy.Methods A total of 84 elderly patients who underwent laparoscopic hysterectomy were selected and randomly divided into the room temperature group(disinfected with iodophor at a temperature of 24℃)and the warmed group(disinfected with iodophor at a temperature of 39℃),with 42 cases in each group.The disinfection qualification status,incision infection status,nasopharyngeal temperature,awakening time,adverse reactions,intraoperative blood loss,incision drainage volume,and hidden blood loss of patients in the two groups were compared.Results There was no statistically significant difference in the disinfection qualification rate or incision infection rate between the two groups(P>0.05).At 10 minutes,30 minutes,60 minutes after disinfection and the end of the operation,the nasopharyngeal temperatures of patients in the warmed group were significantly higher than those in the room temperature group(P<0.05).The awakening time of patients in the warmed group was significantly shorter than that in the room temperature group(P<0.05),and the incidences of intraoperative hypothermia and shivering reaction after awakening were significantly lower than those in the room temperature group(P<0.05).There was no statistically significant difference in the intraoperative blood loss or incision drainage volume of patients between the two groups(P>0.05),while the hidden blood loss of patients in the room temperature group was significantly higher than that in the warmed group(P<0.05).Conclusion The iodophor at a temperature of 39℃for preoperative disinfection in elderly patients undergoing laparoscopic hysterectomy can not only ensure the disinfection effect and surgical safety,but also effectively maintain intraoperative body temperature stability,promote postoperative awakening,and reduce hidden blood loss.

In recent decades,the incidence of human papillomavirus(HPV)-associated oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma(OPSCC)has shown a marked increase.Significant changes have also occurred in the OPSCC diagnosis and treatment paradigm.Deter-mining HPV status prior to treatment is now essential,and radiotherapy/chemotherapy,immunotherapy,and minimally invasive surgical techniques have progressively emerged as key modalities for managing OPSCC.However,alongside these paradigm shifts,a comprehen-sive technical consensus guiding the entire diagnostic and therapeutic process for OPSCC patients is currently lacking.Given China's large population base and the rising incidence of OPSCC,an expert panel convened to develop a clinical technical consensus on OPSCC diagno-sis and management tailored to China's specific context.This consensus aims to further enhance and standardize understanding of OPSCC management techniques among relevant healthcare professionals.

Objective To observe the effect of a heavy load exercise on the ultrastructure,function and fission of skeletal muscle mitochondria in rats,and to analyze the changes of the phosphorylation expression of mitochondrial fission protein and upstream kinase at different times postexercise,and to explore the effect of acute heavy load exercise on mitochondrial fission in skeletal muscle of rats and its possible mechanism.Methods Forty-eight adult male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided in-to a quiet control group(C,n=8)and an exercise group(E,n=40).Rats in the E group exercised on a treadmill down a 16° decline at 16 m/min for 90 min and were further divided into 0 h,12 h,24 h,48 h,and 72 h postexercise subgroups.Soleus muscle was isolated and mitochondria were ex-tracted at the corresponding time points after exercise.The ultrastructure of mitochondria in the soleus muscle was observed using transmission electron microscopy,and mitochondrial quantity and morphomet-ric analysis were conducted.Moreover,the colocalization and quantity of dynamin-related protein 1(Drp1)and cytochrome C oxidease subunit Ⅳ(COXⅣ)in the soleus muscle were detected using im-munofluorescence double-labeling techniques.Meanwhile,protein levels of soleus musclep-Drp1Ser616,p-Drp1Ser637,p-extracellular regulatory protein kinaseThr202/Tyr204(p-ERKThr202/Tyr204),p-protein kinaseAThr197(p-PKAThr197),and mitochondrial NADH of ubiquinone oxidoreductase subunit B8(NDUFB8)and ubiqui-nol-cytochrome C reductase core protein 2(UQCRC2)were determined by using Western blotting.An-other twenty-four rats were randomly divided into a DMSO group(CD),a U0126 group(CU),an Ex-ercise+DMSO group(ED),and an Exercise+U0126 group(EU).Six mice in each group were giv-en a single intra-bitoneal injection of DMSO or ERK inhibitor U0126 20 min before acute downhill running.Then,their phosphorylated expressions of ERKThr202/Tyr204 and Drp1Ser616 in soleus muscle were de-tected by Western blotting.Results(1)From 0 h to 48 h after exercise,the soleus muscle mitochon-dria showed swelling,rounding,and uneven distribution of mitochondria,among which the degree of mitochondrial damage was the most serious at 12 h and 24 h after exercise.Moreover,the protein ex-pression of NDUFB8 and UQCRC2 in the mitochondria fractions from soleus muscle was significantly lower at 12 h post-exercise(P<0.05).(2)The co-localization of Drp1 and COXⅣ in the skeletal muscle increased significantly at 12 h to 24 h after a heavy load exercise compared with group C and group E0(P<0.01).Moreover,the mitochondrial area,circumference,aspect ratio and Ferret diameter in the skeletal muscle were significantly lower at 12 h to 24 h postexercise(P<0.05).Meanwhile,the number of mitochondria was significantly higher at 24 h after exercise(P<0.01).(3)The phosphoryla-tion of ERKThr202/Tyr204,PKAThr197 and Drp1Ser616 was significantly higher at 24 h after exercise(P<0.01),while that of Drp1Ser637 was significantly lower at 48 h and 72 h post-exercise(P<0.01).However,the phosphorylated expressions of ERKThr202/Tyr204 and Drp1Ser616 were significantly down-regulated by U0126 treatment before exercise.Conclusion A session of heavy load exercise caused mitochondrial structure and function damage and induced mitochondrial fission in the skeletal muscle,and then to maintain the homeostasis of skeletal muscle cells by cleaving damaged mitochondria.The mechanism of promot-ing skeletal muscle repair may be related to the positive and negative regulation of Drp1 activity by the phosphorylation of Drp1Ser616 and Drp1Ser637,respectively.Among them,the activation of ERKThr202/Tyr204 mediates the phosphorylation activation of Drp1Ser616,but PKAThr197 is not an upstream kinase that medi-ates the inactivation of Drp1Ser637 phosphorylation.

Objective:To investigatetheclinicalefficacy and satetyoflaparoscopic abdominoperineal resection with pelvicperitoneum colsure for low rectal cancer.Methods:A comprehesive search was conducted across multiple da-tabases,including the Cochrane Library、PubMed、Embase、CBM、VIP、CNKI、and WanFang Data,focusing on studies re-lated to pelvic peritoneum colsure(PPC)-oriented laparoscopic abdominoperineal resection from database inception to July,2024.Then,meta-analysis was performed using RevMan 5.3 software.Results:A total of 12 studies involving 999 patients were included.The results showed that there was no significant difference in intraoperative blood loss.The laparoscopic pelvicperitoneum colsure takes a longer time,with a statistically significant difference(WMD=12.37,95%CI=2.27～22.46,P=0.02),but the postoperative exhaust time and hospitalization time are shorter,with a statistically significant difference(WMD=0.40,95%CI=0.07～0.72,P=0.02;WMD=-2.36,95%CI=-3.33～-1.38,P＜0.00001).In terms of postoperative complications,the overall complication rate was higher in the group that did not undergo pelvic-peritoneum colsure,with a statistically significant difference(OR=0.12,95%CI=0.08～0.18,P＜0.00001).The incidence of postoperative intestinal obstruction,perineal incisional hernia,pelvic effusion infection,and radiation enteritis was higher,and the differences were statistically significant(OR=0.24,95%CI=0.13～0.45,P＜0.00001,OR=0.23,95%CI=0.11～0.49,P=0.0001,OR=0.27,95%CI=0.14～0.51,P＜0.0001,OR=0.24,95%CI:0.07～0.81,P=0.03).Conclusion:In lapa-roscopic abdominoperineal resection,closing the pelvicperitoneum has lower postoperative complications,shorter post-operative exhaust time and hospitalization time,and longer operation time,which has better clinical efficacy and safety.
