ObjectiveTo evaluate the effect of Ningying Formula （宁瘿方） combined with low-dose antithyroid drugs （ATDs） on the relapse risk for patients with Graves' hyperthyroidism （GH） during the remission phase， and to analyze the related factors between GH relapse and thyrotropin receptor antibody （TRAb） negativity， so as to provide evidence for the standardized management of GH in remission stage. MethodsA single-center retrospective cohort study was conducted， including 269 GH patients in the remission stage. After propensity score matching （PSM）， 102 matched pairs （204 patients） were established. The control group received low-dose ATDs as maintenance therapy， while the exposure group received the core Ningying Formula in addition to low-dose ATDs. The primary outcome was the GH recurrence rate； the secondary outcome was the thyrotropin receptor antibody （TRAb） negativity rate （TRAb＜1.75 IU/L）. Safety outcomes included treatment-related adverse events. Differences between groups were assessed using Cox regression models and Kaplan-Meier curves， with sensitivity analysis performed using inverse probability of treatment weighting （IPTW）. ResultsThe median follow-up in the matched cohort was 28.07 months. Regarding the GH recurrence outcome， the recurrence rate in the exposure group （18/102， 17.6%） was significantly lower than that in the control group （31/102， 30.4%； χ²=4.539， P=0.033）； regarding the TRAb negativity outcome， the TRAb negativity rate in the exposure group （50/102， 49.0%） was significantly higher than that in the control group （23/102， 22.5%； χ²=15.551， P＜0.001）. Multivariate Cox regression analysis for recurrence showed that Ningying Formula treatment reduced the risk of recurrence ［HR=0.324， 95%CI（0.170， 0.617）， P＜0.001］. Male ［HR=2.209， 95%CI（1.079， 4.520）， P=0.030］， higher initial TRAb level ［per 1 IU/L increase： HR=1.033， 95%CI（1.003， 1.064）， P=0.032］， and larger thyroid volume ［per 1 ml increase： HR=1.045， 95%CI（1.003， 1.088）， P=0.035］ were identified as independent risk factors for recurrence； multivariate Cox regression analysis for TRAb negativity indicated that Ningying Formula treatment promoted TRAb negativity ［HR=1.826， 95%CI（1.091， 3.056）， P=0.022］， while a higher initial TRAb level was associated with a lower probability of negativity ［HR=0.974， 95%CI（0.950， 0.998）， P=0.032］. Survival analysis showed significant differences in relapse rate between groups （Log-Rank P=0.003） and in TRAb outcomes （Log-Rank P=0.034）. The incidence of treatment-related adverse events was similar between groups （P=0.757）. The IPTW sensitivity analysis was consistent with the primary analysis， indicating robust results. ConclusionThe Ningying Formula combined with low-dose ATDs can significantly reduce the risk of recurrence and can improve the TRAb negativity rate in GH patients during the remission stage， without increasing common adverse events， making it an optional strategy for reducing relapse risk during remission. Male gender， higher baseline TRAb level， and larger thyroid volume indicate a higher risk of recurrence， warranting focused follow-up and stratified management.

ObjectiveTo explore the improving effect of Huangqi Chifengtang（HCT） on atherosclerosis（AS）， and elucidate its mechanism in relation to adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase（AMPK）/peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor α（PPARα） signaling pathway and nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain（NOD）-like receptor thermal protein domain associated protein 3（NLRP3） inflammasome. MethodsEight C57BL/6J mice were set as the normal group， and 32 ApoE^-/- mice were randomly divided into the model group， the positive drug group（atorvastatin， 5 mg·kg^-1·d^-1）， HCT low- and high-dose groups（1.95， 3.90 g·kg^-1·d^-1）. ApoE^-/- mice were fed with high-fat and high-cholesterol feed to establish an AS mouse model. After modeling， they were orally administered corresponding dose of drugs for 28 days， while the normal and model groups received an equal volume of physiological saline via oral gavage. Hematoxylin-eosin（HE） staining was used to observe the pathological status of the aorta and liver in mice， Biochemical testing and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay（ELISA） were used to detect the levels of total cholesterol（TC）， triglycerides（TG）， low-density lipoprotein cholesterol（LDL-C）， alanine aminotransferase（ALT）， aspartate aminotransferase（AST）， C-reactive protein（CRP）， interleukin（IL）-1β， IL-18 in the serum， as well as superoxide dismutase（SOD）， malondialdehyde（MDA）， and reduced glutathione（GSH） in the liver. Real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction（Real-time PCR） was used to measure the mRNA expression levels of NLRP3， apoptosis-associated speck-like protein（ASC）， cysteinyl aspartate specific proteinase-1（Caspase-1）， Toll-like receptor 4（TLR4） in the aorta， and fatty acid synthase（FAS）， stearoyl-CoA desaturase 1（SCD1）， PPARα， and carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1A（CPT1A） in the liver. Immunohistochemistry was used to determine the protein expressions of NLRP3， Caspase-1， and ASC in the aorta， and Western blot was used to measure the protein expressions of AMPK， p-AMPK， sterol regulatory element binding protein-1c（SREBP-1c）， CPT1A， and FAS in the liver. ResultsCompared with the normal group， the model group showed a significant increase in lipid plaque deposition in the aorta and lipid accumulation in the liver， the levels of TC， TG， LDL-C， AST， ALT， IL-1β， IL-18 and CRP in the serum were significantly increased（P<0.01）， and the mRNA and protein expressions of aortic TLR4， NLRP3， Caspase-1 and ASC were significantly upregulated（P<0.01）. The levels of SOD and GSH in the liver were significantly reduced， while the level of MDA was significantly increased（P<0.01）. The mRNA expressions of FAS and SCD1 in the liver were significantly downregulated， while the mRNA expressions of PPARα and CPT1A were significantly upregulated. The protein expressions of p-AMPK/AMPK and CPT1A in the liver were significantly reduced， while the expressions of SREBP-1c and FAS proteins were significantly increased（P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， the low- and high-dose HCT groups showed significant improvements in aortic plaques and hepatic lipid deposition. The levels of TC， LDL-C， AST， IL-1β and IL-18 in the serum of the low-dose HCT group， as well as TC， TG， LDL-C， AST， ALT， IL-1β， IL-18 and CRP in the serum of the high-dose HCT group， were significantly reduced（P<0.01）. The mRNA expressions of TLR4， NLRP3 and Caspase-1 in the aorta of the low-dose HCT group， as well as TLR4， NLRP3， Caspase-1 and ASC in the aorta of the high-dose HCT group， were significantly downregulated（P<0.01）. The protein expressions of Caspase-1 and ASC in the aorta of the low-dose HCT group， as well as NLRP3， Caspase-1 and ASC in the high-dose HCT group， were significantly downregulated（P<0.01）. The levels of SOD and GSH in the liver of the low- and high-dose HCT groups were significantly increased， while the level of MDA in the high-dose HCT group was significantly decreased（P<0.05， P<0.01）. In the HCT-treated group， the mRNA expressions of FAS and SCD1 in the liver were significantly upregulated， while the mRNA expressions of PPARα and CPT1A were significantly downregulated， the protein expressions of p-AMPK/AMPK and CPT1A in the liver were significantly increased， while the protein expressions of SREBP-1c and FAS were significantly decreased（P<0.05， P<0.01）. ConclusionHCT can improve lipid metabolism by activating the AMPK/PPARα pathway and inhibit NLRP3 inflammasome-mediated inflammatory responses， thereby reducing hepatic lipid deposition and AS plaque formation.

Objective:This study aimed to evaluate the therapeutic effect of intratympanic injection of ganglioside in patients with refractory sudden deafness. Methods:A total of 120 patients with sudden deafness, aged 18-65 years, whose onset was within 11-42 days, failed to respond to conventional treatment, and had an average hearing threshold（500-4 000 Hz）>60 dB were selected. They were prospectively and randomly divided into a control group of 61 cases and an experimental group of 59 cases. The control group was treated according to the recommended protocol of the Chinese Medical Association（postauricular injection of methylprednisolone）, while the experimental group was treated with intratympanic injection of monosialotetrahexosylganglioside sodium+postauricular injection of methylprednisolone. Both groups were simultaneously administered oral ginkgo biloba extract and citicoline tablets. Hearing was re-examined two weeks after the completion of treatment, and the therapeutic effects of the two different treatment methods were compared and analyzed. Results:The effective rate was 29.51% in the control group and 54.24% in the experimental group（P<0.01）. The average hearing threshold improved by 11.57 dB HL in the control group and 22.50 dB HL in the experimental group（P<0.05）. Conclusion:The combination of postauricular injection of methylprednisolone and intratympanic injection of ganglioside is more effective than postauricular injection of methylprednisolone alone in the treatment of refractory sudden deafness. The earlier the treatment, the better the therapeutic effect.

Allergen-specific immunotherapy（AIT） remains the only therapeutic approach with the potential to modify the natural course of allergic rhinitis（AR）. Nevertheless, considerable inter-individual variability exists in patients'responses to AIT. To facilitate more reliable assessment of treatment efficacy, the China Rhinopathy Research Cooperation Group（CRRCG） convened young and middle-aged nasal experts in China to formulate the present consensus. The recommended subjective outcome measures for AIT comprise symptom scores, medication scores, combined symptom and medication scores, quality-of-life assessments, evaluation of disease control, and assessment of comorbidities. Objective indicators may supplement these measures. Currently available objective approaches include skin prick testing, nasal provocation testing, and allergen exposure chambers. However, these methods remain constrained by practical limitations and are not yet appropriate for routine implementation in clinical efficacy evaluation. In addition, several biomarkers, including sIgE and the sIgE/tIgE ratio, sIgG4, serum IgE-blocking activity, IgA, cytokines and chemokines, as well as immune cell surface molecules and their functional activity, have been shown to have associations with AIT outcomes. While these biomarkers may complement subjective assessments, they are subject to significant limitations. Consequently, large-scale multicenter trials and real-world evidence are required to strengthen the evidence base. The present consensus underscores the necessity of integrating patients'subjective experiences with objective testing throughout the treatment process, thereby providing a more comprehensive and accurate framework for efficacy evaluation. Looking forward, future investigations should prioritize the incorporation of multi-omics data and artificial intelligence methodologies, which hold promise for overcoming current limitations in assessment strategies and for advancing both the standardization and personalization of AIT.

ObjectiveTo analyze the epidemiological and clinical characteristics of surveillance cases in a sentinel hospital for pertussis in Jiangxi Province in 2019, and to provide corresponding references for the prevention and control of pertussis. MethodsCase investigation of pertussis was conducted among sentinel hospital surveillance cases, collecting their basic information, epidemiological characteristics, clinical characteristics, and other information. ResultsA total of 125 pertussis surveillance cases were investigated in 2019, including 73 clinically diagnosed cases (58.40%) and 52 confirmed cases (41.60%). The age of onset was mainly concentrated in children under 5 years old (108 cases, 86.40%), with the largest number of cases in infants aged less than 1-year-old (48 cases, 38.40%). Most cases had a history of receiving pertussis vaccine before onset (110 cases, 88.00%), and the intervals between the onset date and the date of last dose of pertussis vaccine in the 1‒2 doses group were significantly shorter than that in the 3‒4 doses group (U=-5.990, P<0.001). Probable household transmission of pertussis was found in 3 cases. All cases had cough symptoms, mainly manifested as whooping cough (77 cases, 61.60%), in addition to other main clinical manifestations, such as fever (76 cases, 60.80%), vomiting (30 cases, 24.00%), conjunctival congestion (27 cases, 21.60%), and inspiratory whoop (16 cases, 12.80%). A total of 73 cases (58.40%) experienced complications, including 1 death case. All the cases had multiple medical visit experiences before this visit, with an interval of 2 (0,3) days between the onset date and the first visit date. The misdiagnosis rate at the first medical visit was 88.00% (110/125), and the misdiagnosis rate of the first visit in secondary and primary hospitals was significantly higher than that in tertiary hospitals, exhibiting a statistically significant difference (χ²=21.582, P<0.001). ConclusionThe clinical symptoms of pertussis cases are often atypical, and the first diagnosis is prone to misdiagnosis, so it’s necessary to further strengthen the early diagnosis capabilities for pertussis cases in healthcare institutions, especially in the primary healthcare institutions.

ObjectiveTo investigate the mechanism of action of Huangqi Chifengtang （HQCFT） on rats with atherosclerosis （AS） by regulating the gut microbiota and their metabolites. MethodsA rat model of AS was induced through high-fat diet feeding and vitamin D₃ injection， and the modeling lasted for 12 weeks. Fifty eight-week-old male SD rats were randomly divided into five groups： A blank group， a model group， a group receiving a low dose of HQCFT at 1.53 g·kg^-1 （HQCFT-L group）， a group receiving a high dose of HQCFT at 3.06 g·kg^-1 （HQCFT-H group）， and a group receiving atorvastatin calcium tablets at 1.8 mg·kg^-1 （Ato group）， with 10 rats in each group. Oral gavage administration started on the day after model establishment， once daily for four weeks. The efficacy of HQCFT was verified using aortic hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining and determination of lipid levels and hemorrheology. The real-time polymerase chain reaction （Real-time PCR） was used for detecting inflammatory factor levels in the aorta， high-throughput sequencing for analyzing the gut microbiota composition in intestinal contents， targeted metabolomics for detecting short-chain fatty acid （SCFA） levels， and non-targeted metabolomics for identifying metabolomic profiles of intestinal contents. ResultsCompared with that in the blank group， the aortic tissue of rats in the model group showed significant AS lesions， including endothelial damage， inflammatory infiltration， and formation of fibrous plaques and calcified foci. Moreover， serum triacylglycerol （TG）， total cholesterol （TC）， and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol （LDL-C） levels were significantly elevated （P<0.05）， while high-density lipoprotein cholesterol （HDL-C） levels were significantly reduced （P<0.05）. Significant increases were observed in whole blood viscosity， plasma viscosity， and the mRNA expression levels of NOD-like receptor pyrin domain containing 3 （NLRP3）， Caspase-1， interleukin （IL）-β， IL-6， and tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α） in aortic tissue （P<0.05）. Additionally， gut microbiota composition， SCFA levels， and metabolomic profiles were significantly altered. Compared with those in the model group， serum TC， TG， and LDL-C levels， as well as the whole blood viscosity and plasma viscosity， were significantly reduced in all groups treated with HQCFT （P<0.05）. Significant decreases were observed in NLRP3 mRNA expression levels in all groups treated with HQCFT， Caspase-1， IL-β， and IL-6 mRNA expression levels in the HQCFT-H group， and TNF-α mRNA expression levels in the HQCFT-L group （P<0.05）. HQCFT reversed the increase in the F/B ratio and dialled back the decrease in the relative abundance of Blautia and the increase in that of Desulfovibrio. HQCFT promoted the production of acetic acid， valeric acid， and propionic acid. Non-targeted metabolomics identified 39 differential metabolites， which were mainly enriched in metabolic pathways such as arachidonic acid metabolism and primary bile acid biosynthesis. ConclusionThe mechanism by which HQCFT ameliorates AS injury may be related to the improvement of dyslipidemia and body inflammatory responses by altering gut microbiota composition， promoting SCFA production， and regulating the levels of metabolites in intestinal contents.

[Purpose]To analyze the incidence and mortality of pancreatic cancer in 2020 and the change trend from 2010 to 2020 in cancer registration areas of Gansu Province.[Methods]The data of pancreatic cancer from 2010 to 2020 were collected from cancer registries in Gansu Province.The crude incidence/mortality rate,age-standardized incidence/mortality rate by Chinese standard population(ASIRC/ASMRC)and world standard population(ASIRW/ASMRW),0～74 years old cumulative rate and proportion of pancreatic cancer were calculated.Joinpoint 4.7.0 software was used to calculate the average annual percentage change(AAPC)of ASIRC/ASMRC of pancreatic cancer in cancer registration areas of Gansu Province from 2010 to 2020.[Results]In 2020,a total of 838 new cases of pancreatic cancer were reported in the cancer registration areas of Gansu Province,with a crude incidence rate of 6.52/105,ASIRC and ASIRW of 4.03/105 and 4.49/105 respectively,accounting for 2.50％of all malignant tumor incidence.In 2020,702 cases of pan-creatic cancer deaths were reported in the cancer registration areas of Gansu Province,with a crude mortality rate of 5.46/105,ASMRC and ASMRW of 3.25/105 and 3.73/105,respectively,ac-counting for 3.98％of all malignant tumor deaths.From 2010 to 2020,a total of 2 413 cases of pancreatic cancer were reported in cancer registration areas in Gansu Province,accounting for 1.90％of all malignant tumors in the province.The crude incidence rate of pancreatic cancer was 5.28/105,the ASIRC was 4.18/105,the ASIRW was 4.63/105,and the cumulative rate of 0～74 years old was 0.49％.From 2010 to 2020,a total of 1 871 pancreatic cancer deaths were reported in cancer registration areas of Gansu Province,accounting for 2.38％of all malignant tumor deaths in the province.The crude mortality rate was 3.92/105,the ASMRC was 3.09/105,the ASMRW was 3.50/105,and the cumulative rate of 0～74 years old was 0.36％.In terms of sex and region,the incidence and mortality of pancreatic cancer from 2010 to 2020 in men were higher than those in women,and higher in rural areas than those in urban areas.From 2010 to 2020,the incidence and mortality were at a low level under the age of 44 years old,and increased significantly after 45 years old,reaching a peak in the age group of 80～84 years old.ASIRC showed no significant change from 2010 to 2020 with an AAPC of 0.41 1％(P＞0.05).From 2010 to 2020,the ASMRC showed an significantly increasing trend with an AAPC of 6.515％(P=0.014).[Conclusion]From 2010 to 2020,the ASRIC of pancreatic cancer in Gansu Province showed no significant change,while the ASMRC showed a significantly in-creasing trend.The incidence and mortality rates were higher in men than those in women and higher in rural areas than those in urban areas.Middle-aged and elderly men in rural areas are the key groups of prevention and treatment of pancreatic cancer,so targeted prevention and control measures should be carried out.

Objective:To analyze the epidemiological characteristics and immune effects of pertussis in Jiangxi Province from 2020 to 2023 and provide a reference basis for preventing and controlling pertussis in Jiangxi Province.Methods:The annual pertussis incidence data and population data of Jiangxi Province in the same period were derived from the China Disease Prevention and Control Information System, the population data for 2020 were derived from the seventh population census data of Jiangxi Province, and pertussis cases with PV immunization history were derived from the immunization program information system of Jiangxi Province. Descriptive epidemiological methods were used to analyze pertussis epidemic characteristics and PV immunization history in Jiangxi Province from 2020 to 2023. An expert modeler was used to construct the best time series model and perform seasonal decomposition. The chi-square test and Cochran-Armitage trend test were used for statistical analysis. Excel 2013 and SPSS 27.0 software were used for statistical analysis.Results:A total of 886 cases of pertussis were reported in Jiangxi Province from 2020 to 2023, with an average annual reported incidence rate of 0.49/100 000, showing a linear upward trend ( Z=121.80, P<0.001). The Winters' additive model was optimal to fit the monthly data with stable seasonality (Ljung-Box statistic Q=10.56, P=0.78), the average number of reported cases in August was higher than the annual average of 5.12. The top three cities with reported incidence rates were Pingxiang (1.11/100 000), Yichun (1.10/100 000), and Nanchang (0.73/100 000). The highest age composition of cases was in the under 1-year-old group (373 cases,42.10%). Under 1-year-old group, 5-9-years-old group, and ≥10-years-old group all showed an increasing trend in reported incidence year by year (all P<0.001), and the reported incidence rate of under 1-year-old group increased from 12.42/100 000 in 2020 to 48.85/100 000 in 2023. A total of 545 cases (61.51%) had a history of PV immunization. Four doses PV immunization was the main ones (44.92%, 398 cases) and the median ( Q1, Q3) interval from the last vaccination to onset was 4 (1,5) years. Conclusions:The reported incidence of pertussis in Jiangxi Province increased from 2020 to 2023. The cases are mainly concentrated in the under 1-year-old group. The rates of PV vaccination in pertussis cases was low, with more number of vaccine breakthrough infection cases with 4-doses PV vaccination. It has been suggested to continue doing the following: strengthening pertussis surveillance, improving the timeliness of pertussis vaccination, implementing the fifth dose as soon as possible for children over 6-year-old, strengthening the studies of vaccine breakthrough infection case, and optimizing the population immunity strategy of pertussis.
