Objective: To evaluate the intervention effect of school based salt reduction health education, so as to provide a scientific basis for constructing a more effective and sustainable salt reduction intervention model for children. Methods: According to a randomized controlled trial design, in June 2022, probability proportional to size sampling was used to select 501 second grade students (248 in the control group and 253 in the intervention group) from 10 primary schools in Zhenjiang (intervention group) and 10 primary schools in Yangzhou (control group), Jiangsu Province. An one year school based salt reduction health education intervention was implemented. This included 20 online and 8 offline health education sessions, monitoring of salt consumption in the canteen, and the establishment of a salt reduction environment on campus. The control group received no additional salt reduction interventions. A questionnaire survey and 24 hour urinary sodium test were conducted before and after the intervention. The difference in differences method was used to evaluate the intervention effect. Results: After the intervention, the intervention group showed significant net intervention effects in knowledge aspects, including knowing that primary school students consume less salt than adults ( OR=3.55,95%CI =1.69-7.47), daily salt intake of primary school students ( OR=6.64,95%CI =3.71-11.87), long term high salt intake leading to hypertension ( OR=6.83,95%CI =3.93-11.91), low salt intake not causing hair graying ( OR= 1.66 ,95%CI =1.00-2.75), salt content in food labels ( OR=4.56,95%CI =2.63-7.91), and common high salt foods ( OR=3.39,95%CI =1.87-6.14) (all P <0.05). In terms of attitude, the net intervention effect for having a positive attitude toward using less salt in home cooking was significantly increased ( OR=1.88,95%CI =1.13-3.12, P <0.05). There were no statistically significant net intervention effects for salt reduction related behaviors (all P >0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in the changes of 24 hour urinary sodium between the intervention group and the control group before and after intervention ( P >0.05). Conclusions School based salt reduction health education effectively improves students salt reduction knowledge and attitudes but has a limited effect on behavior change. The home-school collaboration should be strengthened, and the dietary environment should be optimized simultaneously.

Objective:To analyze the sequencing results, protein structure model, and impact of mutations on the dynamic stability of glycosyltransferase (GTA) in a case with Aw26 blood group subtype.Methods:ABO phenotype was determined by serological testing (anti-A, anti-B, anti-H, and reverse typing). Potential variant of the ABO gene was identified by Sanger sequencing, and the haploid sequence of the variant site was analyzed by TOPOT-A cloning. Molecular models of the GTA was generated by PyMol, and 100-ns molecular dynamics (MD) was simulated with GROMACS software to assess the conformational stability using root mean square deviation (RMSD), radius of gyration (Rg), solvent-accessible surface area (SASA), hydrogen bonding, and binding free energy.Results:Serological assays confirmed the proband as an Aw subtype, whose genotype was identified as ABO*Aw.26/ABO*O.01.02 with variants including p. Pro156Leu, p. Arg176His and p. Pro354ArgfsTer23. Haploid sequencing validated the results of direct sequencing. Molecular modeling showed that the p. Arg176His variant could reduce water-mediated hydrogen bonds from six (wild-type) to one (variant). MD simulation revealed the wild type system could achieve equilibrium within 10 ns (mean RMSD ≈ 0.30 nm), whilst the mutant system required 50 ns to equilibrate and exhibited greater fluctuation (mean RMSD ≈ 0.40 nm). Root mean square fluctuation (RMSF) analysis confirmed significantly increased flexibility in the mutant′s N-terminal loop (residues 63-76). The mutant Rg displayed an expansion-contraction transition within 0 ~ 40 ns, and its SASA value has increased. The number of hydrogen bonds and binding energy of the mutant had decreased (wild-type: 5 to 8, binding energy: -11.53 kcal/mol; mutant: 2 to 5, binding energy: -8.52 kcal/mol). Conclusion:An Aw26 subtype was identified. The p. Arg176His and p. Pro354Argfs*23p variants could synergistically compromise the structural stability of GTA and its substrate binding capacity by disrupting the hydrogen-bond network, increasing local flexibility, and reducing the overall conformational stability.

Objective:To investigate the effect of "four-staff co-management" follow-up mode on risk factor control and medium-term prognosis improvement in patients with coronary heart disease after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).Methods:This was a intervention study. Patients with coronary heart disease who were admitted to the Xiamen Cardiovascular Hospital of Xiamen University from June 2021 to January 2022 and successfully discharged after PCI were included. According to the different types of follow-up after discharge, patients were divided into the traditional follow-up group and the "four-staff co-management" follow-up group. The "four-staff co-management" follow-up mode means that specialists, specialist managers in third-level A hospitals and general practitioners and health managers in basic hospitals were jointly responsible for post-discharge follow-up of PCI patients. Baseline clinical data were collected. The primary endpoints were the rate of compliance of coronary heart disease risk factor control at 12 months after surgery, the rate of secondary surgery, and the incidence of mid-term major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events (MACCE). Unplanned secondary PCI included symptom-driven secondary PCI and asymptomatic secondary PCI. MACCE includes myocardial infarction, hospitalization for heart failure, stroke, major bleeding, all-cause death, and composite endpoints including these events.Results:A total of 2 181 patients were enrolled, including 1 097 patients in the traditional follow-up group and 1 084 patients in the "four-staff co-management" follow-up group. At baseline, there were no statistically significant differences in gender, age, discharge diagnosis, co-existing diseases, echocardiographic indexes, and coronary artery lesions between the two groups (all P>0.05). There were no significant differences between the two groups in total PCI stent length, maximum internal diameter of stent, proportion of patients using drug balloon, proportion of patients with a planned second surgery during hospitalization, and discharge with drugs (all P>0.05). Twelve months after PCI, the reduction in HbA1c and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol was greater in the "four-staff co-management " follow-up group than that in the traditional follow-up group (all P<0.05), and the rate of reaching the standard for low-density lipoprotein cholesterol was higher than that in the traditional follow-up group ( P=0.001), but there was no statistical significance between the two groups for blood pressure and blood glucose (all P>0.05). During the follow-up period, the proportion of symptom-driven second operation patients was lower in the "four-staff co-management" follow-up group than that in the traditional follow-up group ( P<0.001), and there was no significant difference in the proportion of asymptomatic second operation patients between the two groups ( P=0.191). The proportion of hospitalized patients with heart failure in the "four-staff co-management" follow-up group was lower than that in the traditional follow-up group ( P=0.029), and there was no significant difference in the proportion of myocardial infarction, cerebral infarction, cerebral hemorrhage, massive hemorrhage, death and complex endpoint events between the two groups (all P>0.05). Conclusion:The "four-staff co-management" follow-up mode can effectively improve the control of risk factors and medium-term prognosis in patients with coronary heart disease after PCI.

Gouty arthritis （GA） is an inflammatory disorder caused by monosodium urate （MSU） crystal deposition， accompanied by elevated oxidative stress and aberrant release of inflammatory cytokines， resulting in joint tissue damage and intense pain. Nuclear factor E₂-related factor 2 （Nrf2）， a key transcription factor regulating the antioxidant defence system， exerts cytoprotective effects through dissociation from Kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1 （Keap1） and activates downstream antioxidant response element （ARE）-mediated pathways. It can upregulate the expression of heme oxygenase-1 （HO-1）， NADH quinone oxidoreductase 1 （NQO1）， superoxide dismutase （SOD）， and glutathione transferase （GST） to preserve redox homeostasis. Moreover， Nrf2 can suppress activation of NOD-like receptor protein 3 （NLRP3） inflammasomes， reduce pro-inflammatory cytokine production and release， modulate nuclear factor-κB （NF-κB） transcriptional activity， regulate gut microbiota balance， enhance mitophagy， and inhibit apoptosis， so as to reduce joint inflammation and pain and promote body recovery. This review systematically examined recent advancements in traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） for GA prevention and treatment via regulating the Nrf2 signaling pathway. It delineated Nrf2's molecular mechanisms and its role in GA pathogenesis and elucidated how TCM intervenes in multiple pathways including Keap1/Nrf2/ARE， Nrf2/HO-1（NQO1）， and Nrf2/NF-κB/NLRP3 to exert therapeutic effects. The study demonstrated that TCM monomers and compounds effectively counteract oxidative damage， attenuate inflammatory responses， promote autophagy， and inhibit apoptosis via regulating the Nrf2 signaling pathway. These findings not only clarify the scientific basis of TCM in GA treatment but also offer strategic insights for developing novel Nrf2-targeted anti-gout drugs.

Objective To investigate the current status of infection management quality control centers in county-level hospitals in Guangdong Province,providing reference for the development of quality control management programs for county-level infection control centers by provincial infection control centers,and exploring corresponding management strategies.Methods A survey was conducted using the QuestionStar questionnaire platform to investigate county-level quality control centers established in Guangdong Province before December 31,2023.The survey covered the establishment time,personnel structure,level of in-formatization,management,quality control,and training of hospital infection management professional quality control centers.Results There are 68 county-level infection control centers in Guangdong Province,with a coverage rate of 50.37%,and 95.59%of them have been established within the past five years.Experts mainly come from clinical and nursing backgrounds(accounting for23.75%and62.97%respectively),and the majority have a bachelor's degree(71.06%).Only 13%have operational funding.Among them,39 have established hospital infection informatization monitoring,23 have not been equipped,and 6 are under construction.Twenty centers have conducted quality control supervision and issued quality control reports,ac-counting for 29.41%,while 41 have organized training,accounting for 60.29%.Conclusion The coverage rate of county-level infection management quality control centers in Guangdong Province is steadily increasing,but not all counties and districts are covered.There is a lack of policy and funding support,insufficient personnel allocation,and inadequate professional coverage.The health administrative departments and county-level infection control centers need to unify monitoring standards,quality con-trol specifications,and evaluation programs,improve infection control capabilities,and enhance the"four-level"management and training system to effectively promote the quality and safety management level of primary healthcare institutions.

Objective:To analyze the genetic sequences of two patients with a rare Ael blood subgroup.Methods:Two female patients undergoing treatment respectively for adenomyoma of the uterus and gastritis at the Second Affiliated Hospital, Yuying Children′s Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University in June 2019 and September 2020 were selected as the study subjects. Their Ael subtypes were identified with a saline tube agglutination assay and absorption-emission assay. Sequence of the ABO gene Ael subtypes was determined by the Sanger method. The impact of genetic variants on the structural stability of N-acetylgalactosaminyl transferase (GTA) was analyzed with PyMOL software by constructing a structure predicted model. Results:Both patients were determined as Ael blood subgroup. Sequencing result of patient 1 was ABO* O.01.02/ ABO* O.01.02, which has resulted in a p. Thr88Profs*31 amino acid substitution. The sequencing result of patient 2 was ABO* Ael.06/ ABO* O.01.02, in which c. 425C>T and c. 467C>T variants in exon 7 have led to p. Met142Thr and p. Pro156Leu substitutions. Prediction of the protein model speculated that the p. Met142Thr not only can change the binding of GTA protein with water molecules, but also the local hydrogen bond network of GTA, which may lead to decreased enzymatic activity. By contrast, the p. Pro156Leu variant has trivial effect on the structural stability of GTA. Conclusion:The molecular structure of Ael subtypes can be diverse. The genotypes of the two patients have been respectively determined as ABO* O.01.02/ ABO* O.01.02 with a G261 deletion and ABO* Ael.06/ ABO* O.01.02.
