Objective To gain insights into the biological characteristics of different populations of Culex tritaeniorhynchus within and around the Yellow Sea wetland from the perspective of the occurrence of resistance, we investigated the levels of resistance to deltamethrin and kdr gene mutation in the wetland and its peripheral areas. Methods Specimens were collected from Cx. tritaeniorhynchus populations at two monitoring sites in the Rare Bird National Nature Reserve and Tiaozi Ni Wetland Scenic Area, and also from two populations in Yancheng City and the Liuhe District of Nanjing, and the resistance of these mosquitoes to deltamethrin was determined using the CDC biotest bottle method. For each concentration of deltamethrin assessed, a random subset of exposed specimens was selected for amplification of the kdr gene fragment, followed by Sanger sequencing to identify and analyze resistance-associated mutations. Results The LC50 levels of deltamethrin among mosquitoes from the four populations in Luhe, Yancheng, the Rare Bird National Nature Reserve and the Tiaozi Ni Wetland Scenic Area were 2.048 5, 7.798 2, 3.473 3, and 17.695 5 mg/mL, respectively, with corresponding concentrations of deltamethrin ranging from 0.005 to 5.000,0.050 to 50.000,0.050 to 25.000 and 0.050 to 50.000 mg/mL, respectively. Furthermore, the ranges of the KT50 values were 11.76-107.43, 67.05-216.30,29.77-107.43 and 28.40-329.51 min; the 1-h knockdown rates were 34.58%-99.15%, 9.52%-43.80%, 55.09%-73.01%, and 10.09%-68.07%; and the 24-h mortality rates were 12.15%-67.52%,9.52%-79.56%,13.17%-82.21%, and 11.01%-78.99%, respectively. With respect to kdr gene mutation, we assayed a total of 63,70,59, and 57 mosquitoes for the four populations, for which we detected L1014F mutation frequencies of 14.29%, 35.00%, 20.34%, and 31.58%, respectively, with a majority of these mutations being heterozygous for resistance. In addition, five adult mosquitoes were identified has having synonymous mutations at site 1011[i. e. , AAT(asparagine)mutation to AAC(asparagine)]. Conclusions Our findings revealed the clear resistance of Cx. tritaeniorhynchus to deltamethrin in the Yancheng region of the Yellow Sea wetland, and the resistance phenotype and kdr frequency of Cx. tritaeniorhynchus in the wetland environment were comparable to those of Cx. tritaeniorhynchus in the wetland environment, thereby indicating that the resistance of different populations of Cx. tritaeniorhynchus was homogeneous under the pressure of different insecticide selection within and around the wetland. However, the underlying mechanisms need to be further studied.

ObjectiveTo develop an exercise intervention program for patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty based on the daily goal management pathway, and preliminarily verify its clinical feasibility and effectiveness. MethodsThe intervention program was formulated based on the daily goal management pathway and hope theory, combined with literature analysis, qualitative interviews and expert consultation. Feasibility evaluation was conducted among orthopedic nurses and patients in Beijing Bo'ai Hospital from September to November, 2025. A controlled pilot study was performed with 15 patients in each group: the control group received routine rehabilitation care, while the experimental group received the developed intervention program. The Hospital for Special Surgery Knee Score (HSS), range of motion (ROM) of knee, functional exercise compliance score, Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) and Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) were compared between two groups. ResultsThe program covered three themes from admission to three weeks postoperatively, including seven training methods and 32 specific recommendations. Feasibility results showed 100% patient recruitment rate, 93.75% retention rate and 96.94% program acceptance rate. A total of 21 orthopedic nurses scored ≥ 4.5 on all four dimensions of the program. After intervention, HSS score and knee ROM significantly increased (|t| > 6.205, P < 0.001), while WOMAC and VAS score decreased (t = 9.127, Z = -3.415, P < 0.01) in the experimental group; in the control group, VAS score decreased (Z = -3.122, P = 0.002), and knee ROM reduced (t = -2.622, P = 0.015), with no significant improvement in other indicators (P > 0.05); all the indexes were better in the experimental group than in the control group (|t| > 7.949, |Z| > 2.990, P < 0.01), including the functional exercise compliance (t = -8.565, P < 0.001). ConclusionThe exercise intervention program based on the daily goal management pathway is scientific, feasible and preliminarily effective, which can provide a new structured and humanized nursing for early exercise training of patients during hospitalization for total knee arthroplasty.

Objective: To compare the in vitro quality differences of leukoreduced pooled concentrated platelets prepared from whole blood preserved at different temperatures and for various durations, determine the safe time window for refrigerated whole blood in platelet preparation, and provide experimental evidence for optimizing blood component preparation procedures and improving the comprehensive utilization rate of blood resources. Methods: A total of 324 units of 400 mL ACD-B anticoagulated whole blood were randomly divided into two groups and stored at 4℃ and 22℃, respectively. The buffy coat was separated at three time intervals: <6 h, 6-12 h, and >12 h (≤18 h) post-collection, and allowed to rest overnight at 22℃. On the following day, the buffy coats from each group were pooled to prepare leukoreduced pooled platelet concentrates (LPPCs). Cell counts were performed, and metabolic parameters including pH, glucose, and lactate levels were measured to evaluate metabolic status. Platelet in vitro function and activation were assessed by thromboelastography (TEG), platelet aggregation rate, and the expression of PAC-1 and CD62P. The differences between the two groups were compared. Results: For pooled concentrated platelets prepared from whole blood stored at 4℃ and 22℃ for <6 h and 6-12 h, there were no significant differences in platelet count, pH, glucose levels, lactic acid levels, thromboelastography (TEG), platelet aggregation rate, or platelet activation rate (P>0.05). With prolonged refrigeration time of whole blood, compared with pooled concentrated platelets prepared from whole blood stored at 22℃ for >12 h but ≤18 h, those prepared from whole blood stored at 4℃ for >12 h but ≤18 h showed a decreased platelet count (1 152.83±180.08 vs 1 368.83±134.86, P=0.040), a significantly increased ADP-induced aggregation rate (26.82±6.59 vs 13.88±10.21, P=0.030), and significantly elevated expression rates of PAC-1 and CD62P (72.64±6.74 vs 63.28±5.97, P=0.030). However, there were no significant differences in pH, glucose content, lactate content, or thromboelastography (P>0.05). Conclusion: There was no significant difference in the in vitro count, function, or activation of pooled concentrated platelets prepared from whole blood stored at 4℃ and 22℃ within 12 hours. However, statistically significant differences were observed between the mixed concentrated platelets prepared from whole blood stored at 4℃ and those stored at 22℃ for more than 12 hours but not exceeding 18 hours. These findings can provide a reference for the preparation methods and clinical application of refrigerated platelets.

Diabetes & Metabolism Journal 2025;49(2):321-330
Background:
Maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY) due to variants of hepatocyte nuclear factor 1-beta (HNF1β) (MODY5) has not been well studied in the Chinese population. This study aimed to estimate its prevalence and evaluate the application of a clinical screening method (Faguer score) in Chinese early-onset diabetes (EOD) patients.
Methods:
Among 679 EOD patients clinically diagnosed with type 2 diabetes mellitus (age at diagnosis ≤40 years), the exons of HNF1β were sequenced. Functional impact of rare variants was evaluated using a dual-luciferase reporter system. Faguer scores ≥8 prompted multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification (MLPA) for large deletions. Pathogenicity of HNF1β variants was assessed following the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics (ACMG) guidelines.
Results:
Two rare HNF1β missense mutations (E105K and G454R) were identified by sequencing in five patients, showing functional impact in vitro. Another patient was found to have a whole-gene deletion by MLPA in 22 patients with the Faguer score above 8. Following ACMG guidelines, six patients carrying pathogenic or likely pathogenic variant were diagnosed with MODY5. The estimated prevalence of MODY5 in Chinese EOD patients was approximately 0.9% or higher.
Conclusion
MODY5 is not uncommon in China. The Faguer score is helpful in deciding whether to perform MLPA analysis on patients with negative sequencing results.

Objective:To investigate the current status of attitudes toward seeking professional psychological help in patients after gastrointestinal tumor surgery and to analyze their influencing factors.Methods:Convenience sampling was used to select 153 patients who underwent surgery at the Gastrointestinal Tumor Center of Peking University Cancer Hospital as study subjects. General Information Questionnaire, Chinese version of Attitude Seeking Professional Psychological Help Scale-Short Form (ATSPPH-SF) , Simplified Coping Style Questionnaire, and General Self-Efficacy Scale were used to conduct the survey. Spearman correlation was used to analyze the correlation between attitudes toward seeking professional psychological help and coping styles and self-efficacy in patients after gastrointestinal tumor surgery. Multiple linear regression was used to explore the factors influencing attitudes toward seeking professional psychological help in patients after gastrointestinal tumor surgery. A total of 153 questionnaires were distributed and 149 valid questionnaires were recovered, with a valid recovery rate of 97.39% (149/153) .Results:The total ATSPPH-SF score of 149 patients with gastrointestinal tumor surgery was [16.00 (13.00, 19.00) ]. Multiple linear regression analysis showed that work status, seeking professional psychological help, and coping styles were the influencing factors on the attitude toward seeking professional psychological help in patients after gastrointestinal tumor surgery ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:The level of attitudes toward seeking professional psychological help in patients after gastrointestinal tumor surgery is low and is influenced by a number of factors. Healthcare professionals can carry out individualized interventions for different patients, enhance absentee patients' disease knowledge, sense of self-worth, and encourage them to carry out professional psychological counseling and establish a positive coping style, so as to increase the initiative of patients to seek professional psychological help.
