Objective: To understand the incidence risk and risk factors of tuberculosis (TB) among middle school students in Chongqing, so as to provide a basis for formulating TB prevention and control strategies. Methods: From September to December 2022, 32 181 middle school students were selected as the study cohort from 15 administrative districts in Chongqing by using the stratified cluster random sampling method. All cohort members were screened with the tuberculin skin test (TST), and relevant information was collected from January 1, 2023 to December 31, 2024. On the basis of active screening, the follow up data of the participants were compared with the National Tuberculosis Management Information System to obtain the incidence status of the study subjects. The Log rank test was used to compare the TB incidence rates among students with different characteristics, and a Cox proportional hazards model was established to analyze the incidence risk and risk factors of TB. Results: The TST screening rate of the cohort members was 93.0%. During the 2 year follow up period, a total of 36 TB cases occurred, with a cumulative incidence rate of 111.87/100 000 and an incidence density of 55.95/100 000. Among them, the cumulative incidence rate of students from public schools (170.44/ 100 000 ) was higher than that of students from private schools (41.16/100 000), the cumulative incidence rate of students in schools located in high epidemic areas (153.95/100 000) was higher than that in medium epidemic areas (69.00/100 000), and the difference was statistically significant ( χ 2=11.49, 4.73, both P <0.05). The Log-rank test for different TST results showed that the difference in TB comulative incidence rate between students with strongly positive TST results (216.55/ 100 000 ) and those with negative TST results (81.40/100 000) was statistically significant ( χ 2=5.85, P <0.05). Univariate analysis using the Cox proportional hazards model revealed that the risk of TB was lower in students from private schools ( HR=0.25, 95% CI = 0.10-0.59) and students in medium epidemic areas ( HR=0.46, 95%CI =0.23-0.94); whereas the risk of TB was increased in students with strongly positive TST results ( HR=1.39, 95%CI =1.05-1.84) (all P <0.05). Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that the risk of TB in students from private schools was lower than that of students from public schools ( HR=0.23, 95%CI=0.08-0.62, P <0.05). Conclusions The annual average incidence rate of TB among middle school students in Chongqing is at a relatively high level. It is necessary to strengthen the management and intervention for student groups, including those in public schools, those in schools located in high epidemic areas, and those with strongly positive TST results, so as to reduce the incidence rate of TB.

OBJECTIVE To establish a closed-loop management system for the whole-process traceability of outpatient drugs based on internet of things （IoT） and blockchain technology， and evaluate its implementation effects. METHODS A closed-loop management system for the whole-process traceability of outpatient drugs covering the entire drug lifecycle was designed using drug traceability codes integrated with IoT and blockchain technology. System effectiveness was evaluated from three dimensions： work efficiency， medication management quality and data safety by comparing indicators such as the acceptance time of incoming drugs and the number of collected drug traceability codes before the system implementation （October to December 2024） and after the system implementation （January to March 2025）. RESULTS A closed-loop management system for the whole-process traceability of outpatient drugs， centered around the drug traceability code management system， was successfully established. The acceptance time for incoming drugs was shortened from （4.65±0.26） h before implementation to （0.34±0.08） h after implementation （P＜ 0.05）. The number of collected drug traceability codes increased from 419 018 to 1 236 522， and the coverage rate of traceability codes rose from 28.36% to 89.88% （P＜0.05）. The time pharmacists spent on drug expiry management per week decreased from （128.40±19.20） min to （0.56±0.13） min （P＜0.05）， and the dispensing time for a single prescription （excluding a part of injections and repackaged drugs） was reduced from （143.25±17.67） s to （15.24±10.08） s （P＜0.05）. The time for drug return was reduced from 129.90 （122.32， 137.00） s to 104.36 （89.91， 117.33） s（P＜0.05）； the number of drug dispensing errors decreased from 2 cases to 0 cases. After the system was launched， there were no data security incidents in our outpatient pharmacy. CONCLUSIONS The constructed closed-loop management system for the whole-process traceability of outpatient drugs can significantly enhance drug traceability accuracy and drug management quality， improve pharmacist work efficiency， and reduce drug management risks， thus providing a feasible solution for the digital transformation of hospital pharmaceutical services.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy,safety and economics of romiplostim for treating primary immune thrombocytopenia(ITP)by rapid health technology assessment,and to provide an evidence-based basis for policy makers and clinical practice.Methods PubMed,Cochrane Library,Embase,CNKI,WanFang Data and VIP databases and the official websites of health technology assessment agency were electronically searched to collect high-quality clinical evidence and pharmacoeconomics evaluation literature of romiplostim for the treatment of ITP from inception to January 18,2024.Two researchers independently screened the literature,extracted information,and accessed the quality of included the literature,the extracted results were categorized and evaluated.Results A total of 14 literature were included,in which 8 systematic reviews/Meta-analysis and 6 pharmacoeconomic studies.In terms of efficacy,treatment with romiplostim significantly elevated platelet response rate,sustained platelet response rate,and mean platelet count in patients with ITP compared with placebo(P＜0.05).Romiplostim did not show a significant advantage in elevating patients'platelet response rate and sustained platelet response rate compared with other agents used to treat ITP(P＞0.05).In terms of safety,the incidence of serious adverse events was statistically lower with romiplostim compared to placebo(P＜0.05),while no significant differences were seen in the incidence of adverse events,bleeding events and thrombotic events(P＞0.05).There were no significant differences in the incidence of adverse events,serious adverse events,bleeding events,or thrombotic events when comparing romiplostim to other drugs for the treatment of ITP(P＞0.05).From an economic standpoint,most studies considered eltrombopag to be more economic advantages than romiplostim.Conclusion Romiplostim has good efficacy and safety in the treatment of ITP,and no advantage was shown in terms of economy.

Objective To study the anti-reflux effect of conical gastric stump embedding in radical resection of esophageal cancer.Methods A total of 60 patients who planned to undergo radical resection of esophageal cancer in our hospital from June 2020 to June 2022 were selected as the study objects,and the patients were divided into the observation group and the control group by random number table method,with 30 cases in each group.Patients in both groups underwent laparoscopic radical resection of esophageal cancer and esophagogastric end-to-side mechanical anastomosis.The observation group adopted the conical gastric stump embedding technique after esophagogastric end-to-side mechanical anastomosis.The perioperative related indexes,postoperative complications and gastroesophageal reflux of patients in the two groups were compared.The postoperative anti-reflux effect was evaluated by reflux disease questionnaire(RDQ)score and 24-hour intraesophageal pH monitoring.Results The operation time and digestive tract reconstruction time of patients in the observation group were longer than those in the control group(P<0.05),while there was no statistically significant difference in the amount of intraoperative bleeding,the number of lymph node dissection,the first exhaust time,or the postoperative hospital stay of patients between the two groups(P>0.05).There was no statistically significant difference in the overall incidence of postoperative complications between the two groups(P>0.05).The severity of postoperative gastroesophageal reflux of patients in the observation group was lighter than that in the control group,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).The RDQ score,24-hour reflux frequency,>5 minutes reflux frequency,pH<4 time,and longest reflux time of patients in the observation group was significantly lower/less/shorter than those in the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion The conical gastric stump embedding technique is safe and feasible in the radical resection of esophageal cancer.Although the operation time and digestive tract reconstruction time are slightly prolonged,it does not increase the perioperative risks,which can significantly reduce the occurrence and severity of postoperative gastroesophageal reflux of patients,and achieve a good anti-reflux effect.

Objective:This study utilizes a hybrid research design,integrating interviews with experimental surveys,to investigate the variances in patient trust models between tertiary hospitals and primary healthcare institutions.Methods:Thirty-eight residents participated in semi-structured interviews,which were then analyzed using content analysis.The experimental survey segment divided participants into two groups:"Tertiary Hospitals"and"Primary Healthcare Institutions,"resulting in 648 valid questionnaires.These questionnaires were subjected to variance analysis to assess differences.Results:Patients exhibit greater systemic trust in tertiary hospitals than in primary healthcare facilities,while interpersonal trust is stronger in primary healthcare settings.Suggestions:Therefore,strategies should be developed to bolster systemic trust at the primary level and emphasize the advantages of interpersonal trust.Moreover,specific measures are required to reshape patients'interpersonal trust in tertiary hospitals.

Objective:To evaluate the real-world safety of the domestic rotavirus attenuated live vaccine in China.Methods:Studies on the incidence of adverse event following immunization (AEFI) published from January 1, 2020 to July 31, 2023 were retrieved from National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), CQVIP, Wanfang Database, PubMed, Medline, and Embase. Surveillance data about AEFI reports related to the domestic rotavirus vaccine rotavirus were collected. A meta-analysis on the safety of the rotavirus vaccine after vaccination was conducted using R software, and subgroup analyses were conducted on the incidence of AEFI in different regions and time periods.Results:A total of 36 articles were included involving 25.332 million doses of vaccine. The incidence of AEFI associated with the domestic rotavirus vaccine was 19/100 000 doses [95%CI: 15/100 000-24/100 000 doses]; the incidence was 26/100 000 doses [95%CI: 17/100 000-39/100 000 doses] in the northern regions and 16/100 000 doses [95%CI: 11/100 000-23/100 000 doses] in the southern regions; it was 24/100 000 doses [95%CI: 12/100 000-45/100 000 doses] before 2017 and 27/100 000 doses [95%CI: 18/100 000-39/100 000 doses] after 2017.Conclusions:The incidence of AEFI related to the domestic rotavirus vaccine is within the expected range, and the safety of the vaccine is good based on the real-world data.

Objective To explore the correlation between endoscopic ultrasound features and immunohistochemical results of gastric stromal tumors at different risk levels,and provide reference for clinical diagnosis and treatment.Methods Retrospective collection of relevant indicators of gastric stromal tumor patients who received concurrent surgical treatment at Lanzhou University Second Hospital from January 2018 to July 2023,and analysis of differences in risk levels.Results The average age of onset of gastric stromal tumors was(56.02±10.94)years old,and the initial symptom of black stool was significant for different grades of gastric SMTs.Patients with different risk levels also received significant differences in treatment methods(P＜0.05).There was no difference in the classification of risk levels among the four groups of extremely low risk,low risk,medium risk,and high risk in terms of location,origin level,boundary,echo,presence or absence of cystic changes,calcification,or blood flow signals(P＜0.05);Tumor size,growth pattern,shape,internal echo uniformity,and appearance are significant factors for postoperative risk grading of gastric stromal tumors(P＜0.05).Multivariate logistic regression showed that tumor size is an independent influencing factor(P＜0.05).The immunohistochemical results showed that the positivity of DOG-1,CD34,SMA,and Desmin had no effect on the postoperative risk grading of gastric SMTs(P＜0.05);The positive expression of Vimentin,Ki-67 index,and mitosis were significantly correlated with risk(P＜0.05).Conclusion The different invasion grades of gastric stromal tumors are related to the size,shape,and echo of the lesion.Endoscopic ultrasound can effectively diagnose gastric stromal tumors,and combining with immunohistochemical related indicators can better evaluate the overall condition of patients with gastric stromal tumors,providing reference for clinical diagnosis and treatment.

Hyaluronan and proteoglycan link protein 1(Hapln1)supports active cardiomyogenesis in zebrafish hearts,but its regulation in mammal cardiomyocytes is unclear.This study aimed to explore the potential regulation of Hapln1 in the dedifferentiation and proliferation of cardiomyocytes and its therapeutic value in myocardial infarction with human induced pluripotent stem cell(hiPSC)-derived car-diomyocytes(CMs)and an adult mouse model of myocardial infarction.HiPSC-CMs and adult mice with myocardial infarction were used as in vitro and in vivo models,respectively.Previous single-cell RNA sequencing data were retrieved for bioinformatic exploration.The results showed that recombinant human Hapln1(rhHapln1)promotes the proliferation of hiPSC-CMs in a dose-dependent manner.As a physical binding protein of Hapln1,versican interacted with Nodal growth differentiation factor(NODAL)and growth differentiation factor 11(GDF11).GDF11,but not NODAL,was expressed by hiPSC-CMs.GDF11 expression was unaffected by rhHapln1 treatment.However,this molecule was required for rhHapln1-mediated activation of the transforming growth factor(TGF)-β/Drosophila mothers against decapentaplegic protein(SMAD)2/3 signaling in hiPSC-CMs,which stimulates cell dedifferentiation and proliferation.Recombinant mouse Hapln1(rmHapln1)could induce cardiac regeneration in the adult mouse model of myocardial infarction.In addition,rmHapln1 induced hiPSC-CM proliferation.In conclusion,Hapln1 can stimulate the dedifferentiation and proliferation of iPSC-derived cardiomyocytes by promoting versican-based GDF11 trapping and subsequent activation of the TGF-β/SMAD2/3 signaling pathway.Hapln1 might be an effective hiPSC-CM dedifferentiation and proliferation agent and a po-tential reagent for repairing damaged hearts.

Objective To investigate the incidence rate,clinical characteristics,and prognosis of neonatal stroke in Shenzhen,China.Methods Led by Shenzhen Children's Hospital,the Shenzhen Neonatal Data Collaboration Network organized 21 institutions to collect 36 cases of neonatal stroke from January 2020 to December 2022.The incidence,clinical characteristics,treatment,and prognosis of neonatal stroke in Shenzhen were analyzed.Results The incidence rate of neonatal stroke in 21 hospitals from 2020 to 2022 was 1/15 137,1/6 060,and 1/7 704,respectively.Ischemic stroke accounted for 75％(27/36);boys accounted for 64％(23/36).Among the 36 neonates,31(86％)had disease onset within 3 days after birth,and 19(53％)had convulsion as the initial presentation.Cerebral MRI showed that 22 neonates(61％)had left cerebral infarction and 13(36％)had basal ganglia infarction.Magnetic resonance angiography was performed for 12 neonates,among whom 9(75％)had involvement of the middle cerebral artery.Electroencephalography was performed for 29 neonates,with sharp waves in 21 neonates(72％)and seizures in 10 neonates(34％).Symptomatic/supportive treatment varied across different hospitals.Neonatal Behavioral Neurological Assessment was performed for 12 neonates(33％,12/36),with a mean score of(32±4)points.The prognosis of 27 neonates was followed up to around 12 months of age,with 44％(12/27)of the neonates having a good prognosis.Conclusions Ischemic stroke is the main type of neonatal stroke,often with convulsions as the initial presentation,involvement of the middle cerebral artery,sharp waves on electroencephalography,and a relatively low neurodevelopment score.Symptomatic/supportive treatment is the main treatment method,and some neonates tend to have a poor prognosis.

Objective To understand the change in distribution and antimicrobial resistance of bacteria isolated from blood specimens of Hunan Province,and provide for the initial diagnosis and treatment of clinical bloodstream infection(BSI).Methods Data reported from member units of Hunan Province Antimicrobial Resistance Survei-llance System from 2012 to 2021 were collected.Bacterial antimicrobial resistance surveillance method was imple-mented according to the technical scheme of China Antimicrobial Resistance Surveillance System(CARSS).Bacteria from blood specimens and bacterial antimicrobial susceptibility testing results were analyzed by WHONET 5.6 soft-ware and SPSS 27.0 software.Results A total of 207 054 bacterial strains were isolated from blood specimens from member units in Hunan Province Antimicrobial Resistance Surveillance System from 2012 to 2021,including 107 135(51.7％)Gram-positive bacteria and 99 919(48.3％)Gram-negative bacteria.There was no change in the top 6 pathogenic bacteria from 2012 to 2021,with Escherichia coli(n=51 537,24.9％)ranking first,followed by Staphylococcus epidermidis(n=29 115,14.1％),Staphylococcus aureus(n=17 402,8.4％),Klebsiella pneu-moniae(17 325,8.4％),Pseudomonas aeruginosa(n=4 010,1.9％)and Acinetobacter baumannii(n=3 598,1.7％).The detection rate of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus(MRSA)decreased from 30.3％in 2015 to 20.7％in 2021,while the detection rate of methicillin-resistant coagulase-negative Staphylococcus(MRCNS)showed an upward trend year by year(57.9％-66.8％).No Staphylococcus was found to be resistant to vancomy-cin,linezolid,and teicoplanin.Among Gram-negative bacteria,constituent ratios of Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae were 43.9％-53.9％and 14.2％-19.5％,respectively,both showing an upward trend(both P＜0.001).Constituent ratios of Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Acinetobacter baumannii were 3.6％-5.1％and 3.0％-4.5％,respectively,both showing a downward trend year by year(both P＜0.001).From 2012 to 2021,resistance rates of Escherichia coli to imipenem and ertapenem were 1.0％-2.0％and 0.6％-1.1％,respectively;presenting a downward trend(P＜0.001).The resistant rates of Klebsiella pneumoniae to meropenem and ertapenem were 7.4％-13.7％and 4.8％-6.4％,respectively,presenting a downward trend(both P＜0.001).The resistance rates of Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Acinetobacter baumannii to carbapenem antibiotics were 7.1％-15.6％and 34.7％-45.7％,respectively.The trend of resistance to carbapenem antibiotics was relatively stable,but has de-creased compared with 2012-2016.The resistance rates of Escherichia coli to the third-generation cephalosporins from 2012 to 2021 were 41.0％-65.4％,showing a downward trend year by year.Conclusion The constituent ra-tio of Gram-negative bacillus from blood specimens in Hunan Province has been increasing year by year,while the detection rate of carbapenem-resistant Gram-negative bacillus remained relatively stable in the past 5 years,and the detection rate of coagulase-negative Staphylococcus has shown a downward trend.
