Objective:To investigate the application effect of BOPPPS+team-based learning (TBL) based on the concept of outcome-based education (OBE) in the teaching of infectious rash and fever illnesses in children.Methods:A total of 199 undergraduate students of the class 2019 in the five-year program of Department of Pediatrics in Chongqing Medical University were selected as subjects, and they were divided into experimental group with 99 students and control group with 100 students using a random number table. The students in the experimental group received BOPPPS+TBL teaching based on the OBE concept, while those in the control group received traditional teaching. After the end of the curriculum, scores were compared between the two groups, and a questionnaire survey was conducted for self-evaluation of teaching and learning effectiveness and the acceptance of teaching models. SPSS 22.0 was used to perform the t-test and the chi-square test. Results:The experimental group had a significantly higher score of the course than the control group [(88.08±5.31) vs. (85.62±8.44), P=0.014]. The questionnaire survey showed that compared with the control group, the experimental group had significantly higher scores of the self-evaluation of teaching effectiveness [(4.40±0.75) vs. (3.36±1.13), P<0.001] and learning effectiveness [(4.31±0.84) vs. (3.35±1.19), P<0.001]. In the experimental group, 96.96% (96/99) of the students believed that BOPPPS+TBL teaching based on the OBE concept could help students to master and understand the knowledge points, and 93.93% (93/99) of the students were willing to use this teaching model in future learning. Conclusions:BOPPPS+TBL teaching based on the OBE concept can help to achieve teaching objectives and significantly improve student satisfaction and learning outcomes.

Objective:Based on the activities of Helicobacter pylori ( HP) screening in Jiangsu Province in 2024, to evaluate the overall management ability in HP screening, testing, treatment and follow-up in primary medical facilities. Methods:From May 15 to October 18, 2024, the data of HP screening and treatment were retrospectively collected from 79 township health centers, community hospitals, and community health service centers in Jiangsu Province. The rates of screening completion, urea breath test (UBT) completion, treatment rate, UBT follow-up completion, and HP eradication were analyzed. Chi-square test was used for statistical analysis. Results:The completion rate of HP screening was 94.45% (15 489/16 400). There were 6 604 cases (42.64%) with serum HP antibody positive among the 15 489 individuals who completed screening. The positive rate of serum HP antibody in males was higher than that in females (44.77%, 2 643/5 904 vs. 41.32%, 3 961/9 585), and the difference was statistically significant ( χ2=17.69, P<0.001). The positive rates of serum HP antibody in screened individuals aged 18 to 19, 20 to 39, 40 to 59, and 60 to 75 years old were 22.38% (32/143), 36.12% (1 168/3 234), 45.01% (3 240/7 199), and 44.05% (2 164/4 913), respectively, and the difference was statistically significant( χ2=100.73, P<0.001). Among the 6 604 HP antibody-positive individuals, 4 381 cases completed UBT, with a UBT completion rate of 66.34% (4 381/6 604). There were 3 197 individuals with both HP serum antibody and UBT positive, the consistency rate of the 2 tests was 72.97% (3 197/4 381). Totally 2 737 cases received treatment, with a treatment completion rate of 85.61% (2 737/3 197); 2 327 individuals underwent UBT follow-up, with a follow-up completion rate of 85.02% (2 327/2 737). During follow-up, the result of UBT was negative in 1 982 individuals, and the HP eradication rate was 85.17% (1 982/2 327). Conclusions:There are deficiencies in the completion rate of HP screening, testing, treatment, and follow-up in primary hospitals, especially in the completion rate of UBT, which may be related to cognitive insufficiency for HP in residents. It is necessary to strengthen the training of physicians′ abilities in primary hospitals, optimize the allocation of drug resources, enhance health education, and increase residents′ participation and compliance.

Colorectal cancer(CRC)is a prevalent malignancy of the digestive tract in China;it exhibits aggressive progression that is closely associated with tumor microenvironment(TME)modulation.Tumor-associated macrophages,which are pivotal immunomodulatory com-ponents of the TME,demonstrate remarkable functional heterogeneity.Among these,secreted phosphoprotein 1-positive tumor-associated macrophages(SPP1+TAMs)represent a distinct subset with well-characterized protumorigenic properties.Evidence indicates that SPP1+TAMs exhibit a unique spatial distribution pattern in CRC tissues,with pronounced enrichment at the invasive tumor front and metastatic niches.Through the secretion of SPP1 and other effector molecules,this subset orchestrates multifaceted oncogenic processes,including tumor cell adhesion,migration,angiogenesis,and metastatic dissemination.This review systematically elucidates the spatial distribution,molecular reg-ulatory mechanisms,and clinical implications of SPP1+TAMs in CRC,thereby providing a theoretical foundation for developingnovel diagnost-ic biomarkers and targeted therapeutic strategies.

The rapid advances in technology and medicine have greatly facilitated the application of ionizing radiation. Clinically, radiotherapy is one of the major treatments for malignant tumors. However, besides killing tumor cells, ionizing radiation inevitably leads to radiation damage and even death of normal cells. How ionizing radiation causes cell death and the forms of cell death have always been important research topics in this field. Recently, several forms of cell death induced by irradiation have been discovered. Apart from apoptosis, pyroptosis, necroptosis, ferroptosis, autophagic cell death, and methuosis have gradually become research hotspots, and provide new targets for the development of radioprotective drugs and radiosensitizers. In this review, we summarize various forms of ionizing radiation-induced cell death and related molecular mechanisms. We also introduce the latest progress in radiation protection and radiosensitization based on these cell death mechanisms. This review will provide a reference for the research and development of radioprotective drugs and radiosensitizers in the future.
