Objective:To analyze the variation trends in the levels of apolipoprotein B (ApoB), the ratio of apolipoprotein B to low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (ApoB/LDL-C), and non-high density lipoprotein cholesterol (non-HDL-C) among patients and individuals undergoing physical examinations at Zhongshan Hospital, Fudan University from 2014 to 2024.Methods:Data on ApoB, LDL-C, and nonHDL-C levels were collected from individuals (the overall population) who visited or underwent physical examinations at our hospital from January 1, 2014 to December 31, 2024, as well as from individuals (the fixed population) who were tested annually over the 11-year period. The Mann-Kendall test combined with Sen slope estimation was used to analyze the trends. The abnormal rates of ApoB and non-HDL-C in both the overall and fixed populations, as well as the changes in the first and last test results over the 11 years in the fixed population, were also analyzed.Results:The overall population totaled 1 679 440 cases, aged 57 (45, 67) years, and 718 738 cases (42.8%) were female, of which 1 250 234 cases (74.4%) were in the patient population and 429 206 cases (25.6%) were in the health check population. The fixed population of 1 560 cases was 56 (45, 65) years old and 655 cases (42.0%) were female, of which 1 044 cases (66.9%) were in the patient population and 516 cases (33.1%) in the health check population. Between 2014 and 2024, the overall population ApoB decreased from 0.842 g/L to 0.822 g/L (Sen slope -0.001 g·L -1·year -1, P=0.01), the abnormality rate decreased from 24.70% to 22.03% (Sen slope -0.50%/year, P=0.06), and 69.4% of the fixed population showed no change in the subgroups of initial and final tests. ApoB/LDL-C increased from 0.824 to 0.868 (Sen slope -0.003/year, P=0.72). Non-HDL-C decreased from 3.46 mmol/L to 3.32 mmol/L (Sen slope 0.018 mmol·L -1·year -1, P=0.35), with a statistically significant upward trend since 2019 (Sen slope 0.037 mmol·L -1·year -1, P=0.008), and the anomaly rate decreased from 24.3% to 22.7% (Sen slope 0.55%/year, P=0.64), with a statistically significant upward trend since 2019 (Sen slope 1.53%/year, P=0.014), and no change in the grouping of the first and last tests in 75.0% of the fixed population. The trends in the above items were consistent between the overall population and the fixed population. 20-<40 year olds had the most significant upward trend in non-HDL-C along with the least significant downward trend in ApoB/LDL-C and ApoB. Conclusion:ApoB in the overall and fixed populations from 2014-2024 in a Shanghai hospital showed a decreasing trend, and non-HDL-C and abnormality rates showed an increasing trend from 2019 onwards.

Immunotherapy following transplantation has long been a central focus in both anti-rejection strategies and the induction of immune tolerance. Regulatory B cells (Bregs) can directly suppress the immune system via the interaction between programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) and its ligand programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1). Additionally, Bregs exert indirect immunosuppressive effects through the secretion of cytokines such as interleukin-10 (IL-10), transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β), and granzyme B (GrB), among which IL-10 plays a particularly critical role. This review summarizes recent progress in the classification, functional characteristics, and activation mechanisms of Bregs, as well as their potential applications in transplantation immunotherapy, aiming to provide a theoretical foundation for Breg-targeted strategies in transplant immune modulation.

Objective The quality of compound menthol nasal drops was reviewed and analyzed,and identified the bad trend in time.The improvement measures were formulated to improve the quality of the preparation.Methods Taking camphor and menthol in compound menthol nasal drops of Beijing Shijitan Hospital,Capital Medical University,as indicators,the quality of 30 batches of samples was retrospectively analyzed using the capacity sixpack report.The failure mode and effect analysis(FMEA)were applied to the prospective quality risk management.Results All 30 batches of compound menthol nasal drops met the quality standards,and the process was under control.Howe ver,there were potential risks in the process of menthol,so risk management was carried out and improvement measures are formulated.Conclusion The compound menthol nasal drops of the hospital have stable quality,and the quality of the medicine can be continuously ensured with improved processes.

As the location with special public health environments,funeral parlors are of paramount importance in the prevention and control of infectious diseases as well as disinfection practices.This paper analyzes the unique hy-gienic characteristics of funeral parlors,summarizes relevant laws,regulations,standards,and literatures in funeral parlors at home and abroad,and elaborates the problems relevant to infection prevention and control in funeral par-lors from perspectives of body disposal risks,microbial contamination characteristics in funeral parlors,and the current status of staff's knowledge on infectious diseases.It aims to enhance the professional prevention and control capabilities of funeral service personnel and management personnel,ensure the health and safety of service recipients and staff,optimize service quality,provide theoretical basis and practical guidance for forming a sound infectious disease prevention and control system for funeral service institutions,and clarify research directions for the preven-tion and control of infectious diseases in funeral parlors in the future.

Acute kidney injury(AKI)is a syn-drome characterized by rapid decline in renal excre-tory function.Its pathogenesis is still unclear.Stud-ies have shown that macrophages are major play-ers in AKI inflammation,regulating tissue damage and regeneration repair.During AKI inflammation,macrophages can be activated into different func-tional phenotypes through molecular and signaling pathways,regulate different molecules and signal-ing pathways,and determine the progression of AKI.In this paper,the activation of macrophages and the molecular signaling pathways involved in the regulation of AKI in the past five years are re-viewed,and the mechanism of action of macro-phages in AKI is determined,which provides ideas for the study of macrophages as therapeutic tar-gets.
