ObjectiveTo systematically assess the public health governance capacity in Zhejiang Province, to conduct an in-depth analysis of its strengths and weaknesses, so as to provide scientific basis and strategic recommendations for further enhancement. MethodsA systematic collection of policy documents, public information reports, and research literature related to public health governance capacity in Zhejiang Province from 2002 to 2023 was conducted (encompassing a total of 1 263 policy documents, 138 pieces of information reports and 631 research articles). Based on the evaluation criteria suitable for public health systems previously developed by the research team, the basic status and magnitude of change in public health governance capacity in Zhejiang Province was evaluated. Additionally, normative gap analyses were employed to identify the strengths and weaknesses. ResultsZhejiang Province ranked 4th nationwide in terms of public health governance capacity with a score of 733.4 points (1 000.0-point maximum). The province has effectively implemented the principle of health first (scoring 698.5 points in the assessment of health-first strategy implementation) and attached sufficient importance to health-related goals (scoring 658.2 points in the scientific rationality of goal setting). However, the implementation of inter-departmental coordination and incentive mechanisms only scored 178.7 points, the feasibility of management and monitoring mechanisms scored even lower at only 144.0 points, and the coverage of incentive mechanisms scored 286.0 points. ConclusionZhejiang Province has effectively implemented its health first strategy and attached great importance to health targets, but still needs to strengthen cross-departmental coordination mechanisms and health-oriented incentives.

Objective:To investigate the clinical characteristics and genetic variations of patients with aminoacylase-1 deficiency (ACY1D) caused by ACY1 gene mutations, in order to enhance clinicians′ understanding of this rare disease. Methods:Clinical and genetic data of a child with ACY1D admitted to Sir Run Run Hospital, Nanjing Medical University in December 2021 were collected. Using "aminoacylase-1 deficiency" "aminoacylase-1 gene" " ACY1" and "ACY1D" as keywords, relevant cases of ACY1 gene mutations were searched in CNKI, Wanfang Data Knowledge Service Platform, OMIM, and PubMed databases until February 2025. The clinical characteristics and types of genetic variations of previously reported ACY1D patients were summarized and analyzed. Results:The patient was an 8-year and 4-month-old boy. Clinical manifestations included growth retardation, ataxia, and focal epileptic seizures. Increased excretion of various N-acetylamino acids was observed in the urine. Cranial magnetic resonance imaging showed cerebellar atrophy. Whole-exome sequencing results showed a compound heterozygous mutation in the ACY1 gene: c.1063-1G>A (IVS14-1G>A) and c.170G>A (p.G57D) (reference transcript NM_000666.2), with c.170G>A (p.G57D) being a novel mutation. Family validation results showed that the c.1063-1G>A (IVS14-1G>A) mutation originated from his mother, and the c.170G>A (p.G57D) mutation originated from his father. By literature review 11 English articles were retrieved reporting 18 ACY1D patients, along with the child in this study, totaling 19 cases, with an onset age ranging from 1 week to 4 years and 6 months. Among them, 13/19 patients showed growth retardation, 9/19 patients had language disorders, 8/19 patients had intellectual disabilities, 7/19 patients had ataxia and low muscle tone, 6/19 patients had epilepsy and febrile convulsions, and 3/19 patients had irritability, autism, and muscle weakness. Genetic testing results indicated various types of mutations in the ACY1 gene, including missense, splicing, and frameshift mutations. Conclusions:ACY1D is an autosomal recessive genetic disease caused by ACY1 gene mutations, which is relatively rare in China. The main clinical manifestations include growth retardation, intellectual and language disorders. The c.170G>A heterozygous mutation is a newly discovered variant site, expanding the mutation spectrum of the ACY1 gene. Screening for ACY1 gene variations can aid in achieving a definitive diagnosis..

BACKGROUND: Lung cancer is the leading malignancy in China in terms of both incidence and mortality. With increased health awareness and the widespread use of low-dose computed tomography (CT), early diagnosis rates have been steadily improving. Surgical intervention remains the primary treatment option for early-stage lung cancer, and video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) has become a common approach due to its minimal invasiveness and rapid recovery. However, post-discharge recovery remains incomplete, underscoring the importance of postoperative care. Traditional follow-up methods, lack standardization, consume significant medical resources, and increase the burden of the patients. Artificial intelligence (AI)-driven disease management platforms offer a novel solution to optimize postoperative follow-up. This study followed 463 lung cancer surgery patients using an AI-based platform, aiming to identify common postoperative issues, propose solutions, improve quality of life, reduce recurrence-related costs, and promote AI integration in healthcare. METHODS: Using the AI disease management platform, this study integrated educational videos, collaboration between healthcare teams and AI assistants, daily health logs, health assessment forms, and personalized interventions to monitor postoperative recovery. The postoperative rehabilitation status of the patients was assessed by the Leicester Cough Questionnaire (LCQ-MC). Two independent t-test and one-way ANOVA were used to analyze the causes of postoperative cough in lung cancer. RESULTS: Most issues occurred within 7 d post-discharge, significantly declined on 14 d post-discharge. Factors such as gender, smoking history, and surgical approaches were found to influence cough recovery. The incidence of cough on 7 d post-discharge in females was higher than that in males (P<0.01), while the incidence of cough on 14 d post-discharge in elderly patients was lower than that in young patients (P=0.03). The AI-based platform effectively addressed cough, pain, and sleep disturbances through phased interventions. CONCLUSIONS The AI-based platform significantly enhanced postoperative management efficiency and the self-care capabilities of the patients, particularly in phased cough management. Future integration with wearable devices could enable more precise and personalized postoperative care, further advancing the application of AI technology across multidisciplinary healthcare domains.

ObjectiveTo systematically evaluate the public health governance capacity of 40 cities in Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Anhui Provinces, providing a scientific evaluation basis for building a "Healthy Yangtze River Delta". MethodsA comprehensive collection of policy documents, public information reports, and research literature related to public health governance capacity in Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Anhui Provinces was conducted, totaling 6 920 policy documents, 1 720 information reports, and 1 200 literature pieces. Based on the evaluation standards for an appropriate public health system established by the research team, the basic status of public health governance capacity was assessed to identify the strengths and weaknesses of the 40 cities. ResultsIn 2022, the public health governance capacity score for the 40 cities in Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Anhui Provinces was (562.5±38.0) points. In terms of specific areas, the emergency response field received the highest score of (791.4±49.7) points, while the chronic disease prevention and control field received the lowest score of (368.2±29.6) points. The Jiangsu-Zhejiang-Anhui region has largely achieved the strategic priority of health, gradually improved public health legal regulations, and established a basic organizational framework with a solid foundation for information and data infrastructure. However, challenges still need to be addressed, such as unstable government funding for public health, unclear departmental responsibilities, and barriers to information interoperability. ConclusionThe public health governance capacity of the 40 cities in Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Anhui Province has been at a moderate level, but disparities have still existed across regions and fields. In the future, while continuing to deepen existing advantages, it is essential to accurately identify the causes of problems, establish a long-term and stable investment mechanism, enhance information connectivity mechanisms, further clarify departmental responsibilities, and promote the achievement of the "Healthy Yangtze River Delta" goal.

Objective To study the dynamic changes in the secretion of neurotransmitters glutamic acid(Glu)and γ-aminobutyric acid(GABA)in the central auditory brain area,in order to explore the effects of sodium salicy-late on different locations of the auditory pathway.Methods A total of 126 SD rats were injected intraperitoneally with salicylate,and were divided into 10 groups including injection groups for 1,2,4,8,and 24 hours,chronic in-jection groups for 3,7,and 14 days,and chronic recovery groups for 21 and 28 days with 6 rats in each group,as well as their corresponding blank control groups.Rats in each group were anesthetized and materials were collected for further use.High-performance liquid chromatography(HPLC)was performed to detect and compare the dynam-ic changes in the levels of Glu and GABA in the auditory cortex,inferior colliculus,cochlear nucleus,and hippocam-pus of the auditory center of rats in each group at different time points.Results Compared with the control group,within 24 hours of acute injection of salicylate,the Glu content in the auditory cortex reached the peak in 1 hour,and the hippocampus reached the peak at the 4th hour after injection,and then decreased slowly.The GABA con-tent in the four brain regions showed a slow upward trend in the chronic injection period,reached the peak on the 7th day,decreased and approached normal level on the 14th day,and basically returned to the normal level in the re-covery period.Conclusion These findings indicate that salicylate has a certain short-term excitatory and stimulating effect on the central auditory system.Under the mechanism of central plasticity,after long-term injection of salicy-late,the release of neurotransmitters reaches a new excitation/inhibition balance in the central area.Glu and GABA may each play a different role that may ultimately lead to the development of tinnitus.

Herb-induced liver injury(HILI)tends to have complex toxic material basis and toxic mechanism,which greatly affects the safety of traditional Chinese medicine.This article summarizes the main toxic components of Chinese herbal medicine causing liver injury and their mechanism of action.The toxic components of Chinese herbal medicine causing liver injury can be classified into two categories of drug-derived and non-drug-derived toxic components.Drug-derived toxic components mainly include alkaloids,terpenoids,anthraquinones,and phenylpropanoids,and their mechanism of action involves oxidative stress,apoptosis and necrosis,CYP450 enzymes,and genotoxicity.Non-drug-derived toxic components mainly include pesticide residues,sulfur dioxide residues,heavy metals,fungi,and plant growth regulators,and their mechanisms involve oxidative stress,apoptosis,metabolic disorders,and CYP450 enzymes.On this basis,this article further proposes the unsolved problems and research difficulties,in order to promote the basic research on the hepatotoxicity of traditional Chinese medicine.

ObjectiveTo explore the molecular mechanism implicated in the treatment of primary myelofibrosis （PMF） using Chinese medicinal herbs （CMH） by bioinformatics and molecular dynamics. MethodsData mining was performed to find the high-frequency CMH in treating PMF between the year of 1985 and 2024 by searching CNKI， Chinese Science and Technology Journal Database （CCD）， and China Academic Journal Database （CSPD）. TCMSP， SwissTargetPrediction and related reports were used to collect the main active ingredients of high-frequency CMH and their targets. The PMF datasets GSE44426 and GSE124281 were downloaded from GEO database， and R software was used for data normalization and differentially expressed genes （DEGs） screening. Key module hub genes were obtained by weighted gene co-expression network analysis （WGCNA） analysis. The common intersection genes of active ingredient targets， DEGs and key module hub genes of CMH were selected， and the target network was generated using Cytoscape 3.9.2 software. The core target network was generated by topological analysis， while key pathways were selected by GO and KEGG pathway enrichment analysis， and protein interaction relationships were obtained from the String database， so as to construct drug-ingredient-target network and protein interaction network （PPI） relationship diagrams. Discovery Studio 2020 software was used to perform molecular docking， and the GROMACS program was used to perform molecular dynamics simulation. ResultsA total of 21 prescriptions were collected involving 121 herbs. There were 9 herbs with a frequency ≥10 times， which were Danshen （Radix et Rhizoma Salviae Miltiorrhizae）， Huangqi （Radix Astragali）， Baizhu （Rhizoma Atractylodis Macrocephalae）， Danggui （Radix Angelicae Sinensis）， Dangshen （Radix Codonopsis）， Gancao （Radix et Rhizoma Glycyrrhizae）， Baishao （Radix Paeoniae Alba）， Fuling （Poria） and Shudihuang （Radix Rehmanniae Praeparata） from high- to low-frequency. A total of 98 active ingredients and 1125 potential targets were obtained from 9 high-frequency CMH. GSE44426 and GSE124281 data sets screened out 24 gene samples， including 14 of the healthy control group and 10 of the PMF group， and identified 319 DEGs between the two groups， including 122 up-regulated genes and 197 down-regulated genes. WGCNA screened out 24 co-expression module genes and found that the five modules closely related to the onset of PMF were MEpink， MEdarkred， MEblack， MEgrey， and MEturquoise， involving 7112 key module hub genes. The GO and KEGG enrichment analyses indicated that lipids and the atherosclerosis pathways were mainly involved in the mechanism of above high-frequency CMH in treating PMF， which included six hub protein targets： HSP90AA1， HSP90AB1， SRC， MAPK1， IL1B and IL10. From the drug-ingredient-target network， seven active ingredients of CMH targeting at these six hub targets were found， including verbascoside， verbascos isoflavone， kaempferol， luteolin， naringenin， quercetin and pachymic acid. The molecular docking and molecular dynamics analyses showed that the key CMH were Shudihuang， Huangqi， Baishao， Danshen， Gancao and Fuling， and among the seven active ingredients， calycosin had the highest binding affinity with HSP90AB1. ConclusionThe main CMH for the treatment of PMF may be Shudihuang， Huangqi， Baishao， Danshen， Gancao and Fuling， and the active ingredients include verbascoside， verbascos isoflavones， kaempferol， luteolin， naringenin， quercetin and pachymic acid. The relevant targets are HSP90AA1， HSP90AB1， SRC， MAPK1， IL-10， and IL-1β， and the most critical pathways are lipid and atherosclerosis pathways.

OBJECTIVE To systematically review the efficacy and safety of ticagrelor versus clopidogrel in CYP2C19 loss-of-function carriers with mild ischemic stroke or transient ischemic attack(TIA). METHODS Databases such as PubMed, Embase, the Cochrane Library, CNKI, and Wanfang were systematically searched, and the search period was from database establishment to June 2022. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data, and evaluated the methodological quality of the included studies. Meta-analysis was performed using RevMan 5.3 software. RESULTS A total of 2 studies with 7 087 patients were included. Compared with clopidogrel, ticagrelor reduced the incidence of stroke[RR=0.78, 95%CI(0.66−0.93), I2=0%, P=0.007] and vascular event[RR=0.78, 95%CI(0.66−0.91), I2=0%, P=0.002] in patients with mild ischemic stroke or TIA carrying the CYP2C19 loss-of-function allele. The incidence of any bleeding[HR=2.18, 95%CI(1.66−2.85)] and minor bleeding[HR=2.41, 95%CI (1.81−3.20)] in the ticagrelor-aspirin group was higher than that in the clopidogrel-aspirin group, and dyspnea (1.2% vs 0.2%, P<0.001) and arrhythmias(1.7% vs 0.8%, P=0.001) were more common in the ticagrelor-aspirin group than in the clopidogrel-aspirin group. There was no significant difference in the incidence of severe bleeding between the two groups. CONCLUSION Compared with clopidogrel, ticagrelor reduces the incidence of stroke and vascular events in patients with mild ischemic stroke or TIA carrying the CYP2C19 loss-of-function allele, and did not increase the risk of severe bleeding. However, the ticagrelor group had a higher incidence of minor bleeding, dyspnea and arrhythmias.
