Objective:To find out the distribution of water iodine in Jinzhong City, Shanxi Province, and provide scientific basis for scientifically delimiting the distribution range of different water iodine level areas.Methods:From March to August 2024, by using a cross-sectional survey method, the administrative villages (communities, abbreviated as administrative villages) were used as units in 11 counties (districts, cities, abbreviated as counties) of the city to verify the changes in the names and administrative divisions of counties, townships, and administrative villages based on the survey results of iodine content in drinking water in the city in 2017. Population data, water source information, and water supply project operation were investigated, and 10% sampling method was used to collect drinking water samples. Cerium sulfate catalytic spectrophotometry was used to test water iodine level.Results:A total of 2 402 centralized water supply projects in 2 181 administrative villages were investigated and all were operating normally. The median iodine concentration in the city's water was 2.43 μg/L, ranging from 0.15 to 556.45 μg/L. The number of villages and population covered by water iodine level of < 40, 40 - 100, and > 100 μg/L was 1 990 villages and 2 841 752, 153 villages and 372 085, 38 villages and 75 493, respectively.Conclusions:According to the classification of water iodine standards, Jinzhong City presents a coexistence of iodine deficiency, adequate iodine, and high iodine areas, with iodine deficiency areas still being the main focus. Therefore, it is necessary to continue implementing salt iodization measures. Areas with high iodine levels need to continue to promote the implementation of measures to improve water quality, reduce iodine levels, and supply non iodized salt. Efforts should be made to promote disease prevention knowledge among key areas and populations, guide the public to scientifically supplement iodine, and effectively control the hazards of high iodine.

Objective:To analyze the review results of salt iodine monitoring in the county-level laboratories of iodine deficiency disorders in Jinzhong City, and to learn about the quality of the monitoring in the county-level laboratories, so as to provide scientific basis for formulating iodine deficiency disorders prevention and control strategies.Methods:From 2021 to 2023, Jinzhong Center for Disease Control and Prevention used the systematic random sampling method to select 5% (15 samples each) of all edible salt samples (short for salt samples) tested by 11 county-level iodine deficiency disorders laboratories under its jurisdiction for retesting each year. The salt iodine was determined by the redox titration method in accordance with the "General Test Method in Salt Industry-Determination of Iodine" (GB/T 13025.7-2012). Comparisons between groups for count data were analyzed using the χ 2 test, and the comparisons between groups for measurement data were analyzed using a random group design t-test. Results:From 2021 to 2023, the municipal laboratories reviewed and tested 165 salt samples (495 in total over 3 years). The proportion of households using adquately iodized salt tested by county-level laboratories was 92.53% (458/495), with annual rates of 89.70% (148/165), 93.33% (154/165), and 94.55% (156/165), respectively. The proportion of households using adquately iodized salt detected by municipal laboratories was 94.95% (470/495), with annual rates of 90.91% (150/165), 96.36% (159/165), and 97.58% (161/165), respectively. There was no significant difference in the proportion of households using adquately iodized salt detected by the two-level laboratories from 2021 to 2023 (χ 2 = 2.48, P = 0.116). The proportion of salt samples with relative error > 20% in the salt iodine detection results of county-level laboratories reviewed at the municipal laboratory from 2021 to 2023 were 20.00% (33/165), 16.97% (28/165), and 8.48% (14/165), respectively. The differences between different years were statistically significant (χ 2 = 8.49, P = 0.004). Compared with 2023, in 2021 and 2022, the differences were statistically significant ( P < 0.05). The proportion of salt samples with relative error > 30% were 7.88% (13/165), 6.06% (10/165), and 3.64% (6/165), respectively. There was no significant difference among different years (χ 2 = 2.69, P = 0.101). The comparison of laboratory test results between the two-level laboratories showed statistically significant differences ( t = 6.05, P < 0.001). Among the group data reviewed, there were a total of 16 groups with statistical significance, including 4 groups in 2021, 7 groups in 2022, and 5 groups in 2023. Conclusions:The review results indicate that the quality of salt iodine monitoring in county-level laboratories in Jinzhong City continues to improve, and the testing data are authentic and reliable. In the future, training for county-level laboratory inspectors should be increased to enhance their operational skills and minimize testing result errors.

Objective:To analyze the monitoring results of national brucellosis monitoring sites in Jinzhong City, Shanxi Province, and to provide a basis for scientific evaluation of prevention and control effects.Methods:From the "Disease Surveillance Information Report Management System", the surveillance results of national brucellosis surveillance sites (Pingyao County) in Jinzhong City from 2013 to 2021 were summarized and descriptive analysis was carried out.Results:From 2013 to 2021, a total of 996 cases of brucellosis were reported at the national brucellosis monitoring sites in Jinzhong City. A total of 3 538 serum samples were collected from key occupational groups, of which 161 were positive for brucellosis, with a positive rate of 4.55%. Among them, new cases accounted for 55.28% (89/161) and latent infections accounted for 21.74% (35/161). The annual serological test positive rate fluctuated between 1.19% and 20.55%. Except for 2014, the positive rate in all other years was less than 5.00%, and there was a statistically significant difference in positive rates between different years (χ 2 = 222.89, P < 0.001). The monitoring sites covered all townships within the jurisdiction (5 towns and 8 townships), and there was a statistically significant difference in positive rates among different townships (χ 2 = 26.45, P = 0.009). There was a statistically significant difference in positive rates among different occupations (χ 2 = 27.35, P < 0.001), with higher positive rates for veterinarians (5.41%, 2/37) and herders (4.76%, 29/609), respectively. There was a statistically significant difference in positive rates among different age groups (χ 2 = 42.97, P < 0.001), with a higher positive rate of 7.04% (104/1 477) in the 50 to 59 year old group. It can be seen from the scatter plot that the reported incidence rate did not increase linearly with the increase of serological positive rate. Conclusions:Except for 2014, the positive rate of serological tests for brucellosis at the national brucellosis monitoring sites in Jinzhong City, Shanxi Province has remained basically stable in other years. All townships in Pingyao County have an epidemic of brucellosis, and the 50 - 59 year old group and high-risk occupational groups are susceptible to it. The representatives of the monitoring results is not good, and it is recommended that the monitoring sites should strictly control the inclusion of the monitoring objects.

Objective:To analyze the epidemic dynamics and characteristics of human brucellosis in Jinzhong City, Shanxi Province, and to provide scientific basis for formulating prevention and control measures.Methods:Brucellosis epidemic data from "China Disease Prevention and Control Information System" from 2013 to 2020 and the surveillance data of brucellosis prevention and control in Jinzhong City over the years were collected, and the epidemiological characteristics, serological and pathogenic monitoring results of brucellosis in Jinzhong City were analyzed.Results:A total of 5 235 cases of brucellosis were reported in Jinzhong City from 2013 to 2020, with an average annual incidence of 19.60/100 000. There was a statistically significant difference in the annual incidence of each year (χ 2 = 561.09, P < 0.001). Pingyao County had the largest number of reported cases (903 cases), and Yushe County had the highest incidence (59.78/100 000). The incidence was observed in every month of the past years, with significant seasonal onset, the peak of the incidence was from March to July, accounting for 60.50% (3 167/5 235). The majority of the patients were male, aged 20 - 60 years, and farmers, accounting for 81.07% (4 244/5 235), 85.06% (4 453/5 235) and 81.34% (4 258/5 235), respectively. Epidemiological investigation revealed 33 522 high-risk occupational groups. Serological examination was performed in 24 544 people, with a positive rate of 4.45% (1 091/24 544). In 263 pathogenic culture samples, 52 strains of Brucella were found, with a detection rate of 19.77%, all of them were sheep type 3. Conclusions:In recent years, the epidemic of brucellosis in Jinzhong City has shown a sporadic trend, with significant regional differences in the incidence. The occupational population is still the focus of prevention and control. It is suggested to carry out occupational population monitoring, do a good job in health education and behavioral intervention, timely learn about the epidemic dynamics, and effectively control the brucellosis epidemic.

OBJECTIVE To study the effects of Jinbei oral liquid against influenza A H 1N1 virus and secondary Streptococcus pneumoniae infection of rats ，and to provide reference for its clinical application . METHODS Oseltamivir phosphate capsule （25.6 mg/kg）was used as a positive control .

OBJECTIVE： To study early toxicity of paracetamol （APAP） to drug-induced liver injury in mice based on lipid metabonomics research， and to provide reference for finding potential biological marker. METHODS： Totally 20 mice were randomly divided into normal group and APAP liver injury group， with 10 mice in each group. APAP liver injury group was given intraperitoneal injection of APAP 300 mg/kg to establish acute liver injury model； normal group was given constant volume of normal saline intraperitoneally. 1 h later， the blood of mice was collected to isolate plasma. UPLC-Triple-TOF-MS method was used to detect plasma metabolites and perform metabonomics analysis. PCA， PLS-DA and OPLS-DA analysis distinguished the difference of metabolism profiles between groups. The lipid metabolites were screened and identified according to HMDB， Metlin and LIPID MAPS databases. Meanwhile， the changes of APAP level in plasma of mice were detected. The lipid metabolites with variable influence in the projection （VIP） greater than 1 and P＜0.05 in OPLS-DA analysis were identified as differential metabolites. The correlation between lipid differential metabolites and plasma APAP level was analyzed. RESULTS： PCA， PLS-DA and OPLS-DA results showed that sample points in normal group and APAP liver injury group were located in different areas with good differentiation. Compared with liver injury group and normal group， levels of 5 fatty acid metabolites were significantly increased or decreased； levels of 8 glycerophospholipids were significantly decreased and one sphingolipids was significantly increased. 9-thiastearic acid， tetradecanedioic acid， 9-hydrogen peroxide-10，12-octadecadienoic acid， L-myristoyl carnitine （fatty acid） and scyphostation A （sphingolipids） levels had a significant correlation with APAP level in plasma. CONCLUSIONS： The plasma lipid metabolomics showed abnormal changes 1 hour after acetaminophen exposure. A total of 14 related lipid differential metabolites are found， and 5 of which are significantly correlated with APAP level in plasma.

OBJECTIVETo detect numerical chromosomal aberrations and copy number variations (CNVs) in abortus tissue samples with a benchtop semiconductor sequencing platform (SSP).

METHODSOne hundred and forty patients with early spontaneous abortions at between 7 and 16 weeks were selected. Following DNA extraction, library preparation, high-throughput sequencing was carried out.

RESULTSChromosomal anomalies were detected in 82 cases (58.57%), which included 67 aneuploidies and 15 CNVs. Trisomies 16, 21, 22, and X/Y were the most common. A significant difference was found in the anomaly rates between women <35 and ≥35 years old (P< 0.01).

CONCLUSIONThe SSP platform can detect chromosomal aneuploidies and CNVs among abortus tissues. Numerical chromosomal aberration is the main cause of early spontaneous abortion, and advance maternal age is a high risk factor for chromosomal abnormality.
