Objective To understand mosquito density, species composition, and seasonal variations around the Beijing Capital International Airport(BCIA)and provide scientific evidence for mosquito-borne disease prevention and control. Methods Meteorological data were collected from 2016 to 2022, and mosquito density was monitored at seven surveillance sites around the BCIA from May to October each year using CO2-baited mosquito traps to analyze the relationship between mosquito density and meteorological factors. Results In total,68 518 female mosquitoes were captured, with a mosquito density of 10.20 per light · hour. The dominant species was Culex pipiens pallens(73.90%), followed by Aedes albopictus(9.71%)and Ae. vexans(9.29%);the mosquito density was highest in 2016(14.8 per light·hour)and lowest in 2022(4.46 per light·hour). Significant statistical differences were observed in mosquito density among different species(F=18.118, P<0.05). The density of Cx. pipiens pallens and other mosquito species showed a mutually exclusive trend; the peak of mosquito density varied based on years and habitats, with significant statistical differences in mosquito density among different habitats(F=8.504, P<0.05). The highest mosquito density was observed near the Wenyu River(21.50 per light·hour), whereas the lowest was recorded at the BCIA construction site(2.44 per light· hour). The monthly average temperature(r=0.595), monthly average highest temperature(r=0.575), and monthly average lowest temperature(r=0.624)showed moderate positive correlations, whereas the monthly average air pressure(r=-0.484)showed a moderate negative correlation. The monthly average minimum temperature was included in the regression model(F=25.575, P<0.000), and the equation Y=1.029X4-8.181 was used. The monthly average air pressure 2 months prior(b=-2.418, β=-1.619, P<0.05)and the monthly average relative humidity(b=-0.739, β=-1.201, P<0.05)significantly negatively predicted the mosquito density. Notably, the regression equation used was y=2526.170+(-2.418)X9+(-0.739)X13. The exposure-response analysis revealed that the density of mosquitoes was not linearly related to the average monthly air pressure, rainfall, and duration of sunshine. Conclusions The dominant mosquito species around the BCIA was Cx. pipiens pallens, Ae. albopictus, and Ae. vexans. During the control of Cx. pipiens pallens, the impact on other mosquito species must also be considered. Environmental management, breeding sites, and scientific use of pesticides should be prioritized based on the activity periods of mosquitoes. Further studies on mosquitoes and meteorological factors should be conducted to provide references and novel avenues for mosquito control.

Based on the results of the National Drug Sampling and Inspection Programme,we summarized the history,the standard collection,the production enterprises and the dosage form specifications,the quality standard study,the pharmacological and pharmacodynamic study,and the clinical application study of Wuwei Qingzhuo preparation of Mongolian medicine and Shiliu Jianwei preparation of Zang medicine,to provide the basis for improved quality standards for both preparations.The development of these two preparations was searched and analyzed through literature.The available information shows that there is very little research on the two preparations and insufficient pharmacological experimental and clinical experimental data.The two preparations are basically the same in prescription and efficacy.However,the quality standards are very different,which are not conducive to the quality control of the two and their related dosage forms.And it is suggested that the Chinese Pharmacopoeia should take the situation of this category into comprehensive consideration,and unify the quality standards of the two preparations.

Objective To explore the diagnostic and prognostic values of procalcitonin(PCT),interleukin 6(IL-6)and cystatin C(CysC)combined detection in sepsis acute kidney injury(AKI).Methods A total of 100 patients with sepsis were divided into the AKI group(n=56)and the non AKI group(n=44)according to the occurrence of AKI.The prognosis of AKI patients was followed up,and patients were divided into the survival group(n=32)and the death group(n=24)according to the presence or absence of death.Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA)was used to detect PCT,IL-6 and CysC in different groups of patients.The Acute Physiological Function and Chronic Health Status Score(APACHEⅡ)was used to assess the condition of illness.ROC curve was used to analyze the predictive values of PCT,IL-6 and CysC in the diagnosis and death of sepsis combined with AKI.Results The male ratio,age,hypertension with diabetes ratio,APACHE Ⅱ score,serum creatinine(Scr),PCT,IL-6 and CysC levels were higher in the AKI group than those in the non AKI group,and the ratio of complications and onset time were lower in the AKI group than those in the non AKI group(P＜0.05).The ROC curve results showed that the area under the curve(AUC)of PCT,IL-6,and CysC combined for the diagnosis of sepsis complicated with AKI was 0.859,with a sensitivity of 91.07%and a specificity of 90.91%.The combined diagnostic efficacy was better than that of a single indicator.The APACHE Ⅱ score,PCT,IL-6 and CysC levels were higher in the death group than those in the survival group(P＜0.05).The ROC curve results showed that the AUC,sensitivity and specificity of PCT,IL-6 and CysC combined in predicting mortality in sepsis patients with AKI were 0.847,91.67%and 87.50%,respectively.The combined predictive efficacy was better than that of single indicator.Conclusion The combination of PCT,CysC and IL-6 indicators is more valuable in diagnosing and predicting prognosis of sepsis with AKI.
