In the context of burgeoning economic trade, there has been a remarkable increase in the number of ships travelling between domestic and international ports. Inbound and outbound cargo ships, cruise liners, ferries, and other types of vessels have emerged as critical vehicles for the dispersal of vector organisms and the spread of infectious disease agents. Public health concerns associated with these vessels represent a significant threat to human welfare. In this paper, we comprehensively review the hazards posed by vector organisms on ships, the latest advances in prevention and control strategies, and proposes appropriate countermeasures. The aim is to provide effective guidance for the prevention and control of public health security issues caused by ship-borne vector organisms.

Objective To analyze the disease burden of chronic kidney diseases (CKD) attributed to high body mass index (BMI) in China from 1992 to 2021 and predict the disease burden for the next decade, and to provide evidence for the prevention and treatment of CKD. Methods Using the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) database and the Joinpoint model, the average annual percentage rate change (AAPC) of the mortality rate and disability-adjusted life year (DALY) rate was calculated to describe and analyze the CKD disease burden attributed to high BMI in China from 1992 to 2021. The ARIMA model was employed to predict and analyze the change trend of the CKD disease burden. Results From 1992 to 2021, the mortality rate and DALY rate attributed to high BMI-induced chronic kidney disease showed an upward trend. Compared to 1992, the attributed number of deaths increased by 324.38%, and DALYs increased by 268.56%; the mortality rate increased by 64.00%, and the DALY rate grew by 51.62%. From 1992 to 2021, the mortality rate and DALY rate for males were lower than those for females, but the growth rate for males exceeded that of females. From 1992 to 2021, the mortality rate and DALY rate of chronic kidney disease attributed to high BMI in China increased with age. The average annual change rate of chronic kidney disease attributed to high BMI in China from 1992 to 2021 (mortality rate: 1.40 per 100,000 (95% CI: 1.04–1.76), DALY rate: 1.43 per 100 000 (95% CI: 1.17–1.70)) was higher than thHuaiyin Normal University, Huai'anher social demographic index (SDI) regions. The ARIMA model predicted that the age-standardized mortality rate increased from 2.91 per 100 000 in 2022 to 3.05 per 100 000 in 2026, and the age-standardized DALY rate increased from 69.65 per 100 000 in 2022 to 73.58 per 100 000 in 2026. Conclusion Chronic kidney disease attributed to high BMI in China is on the rise, and it will continue to grow in the future. The focus of CKD prevention and control should be on males and the elderly, while active measures should be taken to reduce the occurrence and progression of chronic kidney disease.

Objective To explore enteral nutrition support and analyze its influencing factors in elderly patients with ischemic stroke. Methods A total of 328 patients with ischemic stroke in General Hospital of Western Theater Command were enrolled for nutritional screening between July 2020 and February 2024. Corresponding nutritional support plans were selected to investigate the compliance of patients with enteral nutrition support. Patients were divided into a standard group (n=140) and a non-standard group (n=97) based on whether their calorie intake met the standard. The effects of different clinical characteristics on enteral nutrition support were explored, and logistic analysis was used to analyze the influencing factors of non-standard enteral nutrition support. Results In the 328 patients with ischemic stroke, proportions of total parenteral nutrition support, total enteral nutrition support, and parenteral/enteral nutrition support were 25.30%, 27.74% and 46.95%, respectively. The proportions of vomiting or regurgitation, gastric residual volume >100 mL, mechanical ventilation and use of antibiotics >2 in the non-standard group were higher than those in the standard group (P<0.05). Logistic analysis showed that the above clinical characteristics were risk factors influencing patients with enteral nutrition support and parenteral/enteral nutrition support. Conclusion Vomiting or regurgitation , gastric residual volume, mechanical ventilation, and amount of antibiotics used are important influencing factors of enteral nutrition support in patients. Clinicians should pay attention to the above clinical characteristics.

Objective To compare the effects of upper limb remote ischemic preconditioning(RIPC)with different pressure modes on enhancing high-altitude acclimatization in healthy adult males rapidly exposed to high-altitude environments.Methods In May 2024,86 male adult residents living plain areas planning a high-altitude travel were recruited through advertisements in Chongqing by Department of Anesthesiology at the Second Affiliated Hospital of Army Medical University.The participants were randomly divided into a variable pressure training group(n=29),a constant pressure training group(n=29),and a control group(n=28).The variable pressure training group underwent RIPC training in a variable pressure mode[occlusion pressure was set at systolic blood pressure(SBP)+40 mmHg],while the constant pressure training group received RIPC training in a constant pressure mode(fixed occlusion pressure of 200 mmHg).Both groups completed a bilateral upper limb RIPC training(twice daily,5 cycles per time of 10-min occlusion followed by 5-min reperfusion)for 14 d.The control group received no such training.On the 3rd day post-training,all participants entered a simulated 4 500 m altitude chamber for 7 h.The incidence and severity of acute mountain sickness(AMS)were observed and evaluated,and the vital signs and cerebral tissue oxygenation index(CTOI)were recorded.Results The incidence of AMS was 23.1%in the variable pressure training group(RR=0.4,95%CI:0.2～0.8,Chi-square=9.433,P=0.002)and 16.0%in the constant pressure training group(RR=0.2,95%CI:0.1～0.6,Chi-square=12.833,P<0.001),and both incidences were significantly lower than that in the control group(65.4%).The AMS symptom score in the variable pressure training group[1.5(0.8,3.0)vs(3.1±1.9),P=0.018]and the score in the constant pressure training group[1.0(1.0,2.0)vs(3.1±1.9),P=0.001]were significantly lower than that in the control group.The dizziness score was obviously lower in the variable pressure training group[0(0,1.0)vs 1.0(1.0,1.0),P=0.001]and the constant pressure training group[1.0(0,1.0)vs 1.0(1.0,1.0),P=0.003]than the control group,so was the fatigue/weakness score in the variable pressure training group[0(0,0.3)vs 1.0(0,1.0),P=0.006],the constant pressure training group[0 vs 1.0(0,1.0),P<0.001],and the control group.The change of CTOI(ΔCTOI)in the variable pressure training group(P=0.010)and the constant pressure training group(P=0.042)was significantly lower than that in the control group.There were no statistical differences in the 3 groups in terms of SpO2,HR,SBP or DBP(P>0.05).What's more,no significant differences were observed in the incidence of AMS,AMS score,dizziness score,fatigue/weakness score,or ΔCTOI between the variable pressure training group and the constant pressure training group(P>0.05).Conclusion Both upper limb RIPC protocols,variable-pressure(SBP+40 mmHg)and fixed-pressure(200 mmHg),can effectively enhance high-altitude acclimatization by reducing AMS incidence,symptom severity,and cerebral oxygen desaturation.

This consensus was developed by the Orthodontic Society of the Chinese Stomatological Association to provide a systematic, scientific, and practical guideline for informed consent in orthodontic care. Orthodontic treatment is typically lengthy, highly individualized, and involves multiple factors such as growth and development, occlusal function, and facial esthetics. Rapid technological advances and diverse risk profiles make the traditional reliance on orthodontist experience or institutional templates insufficient to ensure patients′ full understanding and autonomous decision-making. To address this, the expert panel conducted extensive reviews of domestic and international guidelines, analyzed representative dispute cases, and performed multicenter patient-clinician surveys. Using a multi-round Delphi method, the group established a standardized informed consent framework covering the initial consultation, treatment, and retention phases. The consensus emphasizes that informed consent is not only a fundamental legal and ethical requirement but also a key step in building trust, improving patient compliance, and enhancing treatment satisfaction. Orthodontists should clearly and comprehensively explain treatment plans, potential risks, uncertainties, and associated costs, while respecting the autonomy of patients or guardians, and maintain continuous communication and dynamic evaluation throughout the treatment process. The release of this consensus provides unified and authoritative guidance for clinical orthodontics, helping to standardize informed consent, enhance its transparency, safeguard patient rights, reduce medical risks, and promote high-quality, sustainable development of orthodontic practice.

OBJECTIVE To assess the current status of hospital-acquired infections and their economic burden in or-thopedic patients based on diagnosis-related groups(DRG).METHOD Based on the National Health Insurance dis-ease diagnosis-related groups,32 413 orthopedic patients from a tertiary care hospital in Beijing in 2021 were grouped,hospital-acquired infections were retrospectively analyzed,and the direct and indirect economic burdens of different DRG groups were assess using indictors such as hospitalization time and cost,bed turnover loss,and labor time loss.RESULTS A total of 32 413 patients were included,the incidence of hospital-acquired infection was 0.47％(153/32 413),the site of infection was predominantly the surgical site(57.99％),and hospital-acquired infections in the hematologic system had a greater impact on cost-consumption indices and time-consumption indi-ces.The infection cases were concentrated in 19.58％of the DRGs groups.The IF23 group(lower limb bone sur-gery with complications and comorbidities)had the highest direct economic burden(24 010 yuan/case)due to hos-pital-acquired infections,and the increase in the cost of consumables and medication was the main factor causing the direct economic burden.At both the hospital level and family-society level,the top three DRG groups in terms of indirect economic burden due to hospital-acquired infections were IB15,IB13 and IF23.CONCLUSION Hospital-acquired infections in orthopedic patients have a tendency to be concentrated,quantitatively assessment of their e-conomic burden based on DRGs not only illustrates the importance of hospital-acquired infection prevention and control,but also accurately identifies the disease groups that require focused management,providing an evidence-based basis for precise prevention and control of hospital-acquired infections.

Objective To construct a nomogram prediction model for predicting hemoglobin A1c(HbA1c)failure in type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM)patients.Methods A total of 936 inpatients with T2DM admitted to the Department of Endocrinology of the Affiliated Hospital of Shandong Second Medical University from January 2021 to January 2022 were selected as the research objects and divided into the non-standard group(HbA1c≥7%,n=801)and the standard group(HbA1c<7%,n=135).Univariate analysis was used to screen the related factors of HbA1c failure.Logistic regression multivariate model was used to analyze the influencing factors of HbA1c failure in T2DM patients.The R language was used to construct a nomogram,and the area under the receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve(AUC)was used to evaluate the predictive ability of the model.The C-index and Hosmer-Lemeshow test were used to evaluate the discrimination and calibration of the model.Results There were statistically significant differences in triglyceride(TG),low-density lipoprotein cholesterol,direct bilirubin,urinary albumin/creatinine ratio(UACR),self-monitoring of blood glucose(SMBG),meat and vegetable pairing,hot pot,whole grain and animal viscera consumption between the two groups(P<0.05).Logistic regression analysis showed that TG(OR 1.699,95%CI 1.298～2.222),UACR(OR 1.003,95%CI 1.001～1.005),SMGB(OR 0.480,95%CI 0.313～0.735),more meat and less vegetables(OR 1.432,95%CI 1.062～1.931)were the influencing factors of HbA1c failure.The AUC of the nomogram prediction model based on the influencing factors was 0.711,with C-index 0.710(95%CI 0.663～0.758)and good calibration(χ2=11.185,P=0.191).Conclusions The nomogram prediction model for HbA1c failure in T2DM patients established based on TG,UACR,SMGB,meat and vegetarian mix has good discrimination and calibration,which can provide certain reference value for warning of poor blood glucose control.

Objective This study aimed to investigate the antimicrobial resistance profiles of bacterial strains isolated from pediatric intensive care units(PICU)in China for better antimicrobial therapy.Methods Clinical isolates were collected from 17 institutions,including tertiary care children's hospitals and pediatric department of tertiary general hospitals in China from January 1,2020 to December 31,2022.Antimicrobial susceptibility testing was carried out according to a unified protocol using Kirby-Bauer method or automated systems.Results were interpreted according to the breakpoints released by the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute(CLSI)in 2020.Results A total of 10 688 isolates were collected,including gram-positive organisms(39.2％)and gram-negative organisms(60.8％).The top three organisms were S.aureus(13.6％,1 453/10 688),A.baumannii(10.0％,1 067/10 688),and coagulase-negative Staphylococcus(9.9％,1 058/10 688).Multi-drug resistant organisms(MDROs)were very common in children.The prevalence of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus(MRSA),carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales(CRE),carbapenem-resistant E.coli,carbapenem-resistant K.pneumoniae(CRKP),carbapenem-resistant A.baumannii(CRAB),and carbapenem-resistant P.aeruginosa(CRPA)was 41.1％,19.4％,8.8％,30.9％,67.4％,and 28.8％,respectively.Overall,more than 50％of Enterobacteriales isolates were resistant to cephalosporins,while nearly 25％of Enterobacteriales isolates were resistant to carbapenems.MDROs were highly resistant to commonly used antibiotics.More than 80％of CRE and CRAB strains were resistant to all beta-lactam antibiotics.CRE and CRAB showed low resistance rates to tigecycline and polymyxin.CRPA showed lower resistance rates to piperacillin,beta-lactamase inhibitor combinations than the resistance rates to third and fourth generation cephalosporins.All of the Staphylococcus and Enterococcus isolates were susceptible to vancomycin and tigecycline.None of PRSP strains isolated from meningitis and nonmeningitis samples were resistant to rifampicin,vancomycin,or linezolid.The prevalence of β-lactamase-negative ampicillin-resistant(BLNAR)strains was 43.3％in Haemophilus influenzae.Conclusions MDROs were prevalent in PICU.It is necessary to establish an effective multidisciplinary team(MDT)to control the antimicrobial resistance.

Due to the poor ionization efficiency and the weak mass spectrometry(MS)intensity of weakly polar substances,direct analysis using the traditional electrospray ionization mass spectrometry(ESI-MS)is a big challenge.In this study,a novel rapid on-site detection method of four prohibited sex hormones in cosmetics was proposed using online derivatization strategy coupled with a miniature mass spectrometer.The target substances in the samples were extracted by a custom-made polyaniline/multi-walled carbon nanotube solid-phase microextraction(SPME)probe.The stirring speed was 200 r/min,the extraction temperature was 40℃,and the extraction time was 2 min.A pulled dual-channel θ borosilicate glass capillary emitter was used as the nano-ESI ion source.The SPME probe was inserted into the channel containing methanol in theθborosilicate glass capillary.When the spray voltage was applied,the four sex hormones were desorbed and formed spray microdroplets,which then collided with the hydroxylamine microdroplets generated from the other channel.The microdroplets of reaction product entered into the miniature mass spectrometer for direct analysis.The limits of detection(LOD)and limits of quantification(LOQ)for the four sex hormones were 10-20 ng/mL and 20-50 ng/mL,respectively.The recoveries were from 84.6%to 107.8%with the relative standard deviations(RSD)from 4.1%to 11.6%.Compared to detection without derivatization,the MS signals of the four target substances were increased by 3 to 15 times.This method was simple,rapid,highly efficient and sensitive,and suitable for on-site rapid analysis of weakly polar sex hormones in cosmetics.
