Objective:To investigate the induction effect of different concentrations of glucose on the polarization of Raw264.7 macrophages in vitro.Methods:The Raw264.7 cells cultured in DMEM medium were divided into control group(5.5 mmol·L-1 glucose),different high-glucose groups(15.0,25.0,35.0,and 45.0 mmol·L-1 glucose),and positive control group[lipopolysaccharide(LPS)].The cells were cultured for 3,6,and 9 h,respectively.Cell morphology was observed in various groups.Cell counting kit-8(CCK-8)method was used to assess the survival rates of cells in various groups.Real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR(RT-qPCR)method was used to detect the expression levels of interleukin-6(IL-6),tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α),and interleukin-10(IL-10)mRNA in cells in various groups.Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA)was used to measure the levels of IL-6,TNF-α,and IL-10 in the cell supernatants in various groups.Flow cytometry was used to determine the percentages of M1 and M2 macrophage markers,CD86+and CD163+cells,in various groups.Results:In control group,theRaw264.7 cells adhered to the culture dish,with a predominantly round morphology.The cells in 35.0 mmol·L-1 high-glucose group and positive control group showed elongated shapes and pseudopodium formation,indicating inflammatory changes.Compared with control group,the survival rates in different high-glucose groups at 6,12,24,and 48 h after treatment were increased(P＜0.05).Compared with control group,after 3 h of treatment,the expression levels of IL-6 and IL-10 mRNA in the cells in 35.0 mmol·L-1 high-glucose group were increased(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01),while no significant changes were observed in IL-6,TNF-α,and IL-10 levels in the cell supernatants(P＞0.05);after 6 h of treatment,the expression level of TNF-α mRNA in the cells in 35.0 mmol·L-1 high-glucose group was increased(P＜0.001),and the levels of IL-6,TNF-α,and IL-10 in the cell supernatants were significantly increased(P＜0.05 or P＜0.001);after 3 h of treatment,the percentages of macrophage markers CD86+cells and CD163+cells in 35.0 mmolL-1 high-glucose group were significantly increased(P＜0.01 or P＜0.001).Conclusion:A certain high concentration of glucose may induce the polarization of Raw264.7 macrophages towards the M1 subtype in vitro.

Cancer remains a complex and challenging medical problem, driving extensive research efforts. Despite significant progress in understanding its genetic and molecular aspects, the quest for effective treatments continues. Nanomedicines have shown great potential for revolutionizing cancer treatment by offering targeted and controlled drug delivery, reducing side effects, and improving patient outcomes. Accordingly, nanomedicines have been the focus of extensive research and development for clinical translation. As of September 2024, a search on the ClinicalTrials.gov website using the term "nanoparticles" revealed numerous ongoing and planned clinical trials. Motivated by recent advances in the field, this review explores the current frontier of cancer nanomedicine. Nanomedicines have supported chemotherapy, phototherapy and sonodynamic therapy, nucleic acid therapy, and immunotherapy. However, translating nanomedicines into practice has been challenged by complex interactions between nanoparticles and biological systems, variable permeability and retention of nanoparticles in tumors, safety concerns, difficulty achieving targeted delivery, and issues with scaling up manufacturing. Perspectives on addressing these challenges are offered. Future opportunities for cancer nanomedicines, including modifying the tumor microenvironment, integrating artificial intelligence and big data, and targeting new medical areas, are also discussed. This review underscores the potential of cancer nanomedicines to revolutionize treatment from a clinical standpoint.

ObjectiveTo assess the availability of bronchodilators for treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) in community health service centers (CHCs) in Shanghai. MethodsOn the basis of previous research, the questionnaire was updated, and surveys were conducted from April to May 2023 in CHCs in Shanghai, with a focus on the availability of medications for COPD treatment. According to the National Basic Medical Insurance, Work Injury Insurance, and Maternity Insurance Drug List (2023 Edition), a total of 24 types of bronchodilators for COPD treatment were identified. The availability rates were used to assess the accessibility of specific drugs in CHCs, and the dispensing rates were used to evaluate the variety of these medications in CHCs. ResultsA total of 248 CHCs responded, with a response rate of 100.0%. Among them, a total of 232 CHCs (93.5%) were equipped with bronchodilators. In terms of availability rates, the availability rates for β₂ adrenoreceptor agonists, muscarinic antagonists, combination drugs, and xanthines drugs were 86.3%, 52.0%, 52.4%, and 85.1%, respectively. Regional differences were observed, in that salbutamol/levalbuterol and budesonide-formoterol were less available in suburban CHCs, ipratropium bromide had lower availability in urban CHCs, and aminophylline was more available in suburban CHCs. Regarding the dispensing rates of the 24 types of bronchodilators for COPD treatment, the median of types equipped by CHCs was 5, with a total of 200 CHCs (80.6%) equipped with fewer than 7 types of bronchodilator drugs. ConclusionThe proportion of CHCs in Shanghai equipped with bronchodilators for COPD is relatively high. However, there exist problems such as limited variety of stocked medications, significant differences in the availability of different drugs, and regional imbalances in drug stocking. To improve the standardized diagnosis, treatment, and management of COPD patients, it is recommended to enhance the availability of COPD treatment medications in CHCs.

Objective To investigate the infection status and clinical parameters of human metapneumovirus(HMPV)in children with acute respiratory tract infections in Jianyang area.Methods A total of 2 669 hospitalized children with acute respiratory tract infec-tions at Jianyang People's Hospital from March 2023 to February 2024 were enrolled.Thirteen kinds of respiratory pathogens were de-tected using multiplex PCR and capillary electrophoresis.The clinical data of HMPV-infected children were collected and analyzed.Re-sults Out of 2 669 children with acute respiratory tract infections,209 were detected with HMPV,with a positive rate of 7.83%.HMPV-positive children were mainly concentrated in under 5 years old(73.21%),with cough,fever,wheezing,and shortness of breath as main clinical manifestations.The rate of single HMPV infection was 58.85%,and those of mixed bacterial infection and mixed viral infection were 26.69% and 13.88%,respectively.The levels of white blood cells(WBC),lymphocytes(LYM),platelets(PLT),C-reactive protein(CRP),alanine aminotransferase(ALT),aspartate aminotransferase(AST),lactate dehydrogenase(LDH),troponin I(cTn I),and procalcitonin(PCT)in the mixed infection group were significantly higher than those in the single HMPV infection group(P＜0.05),while the levels of hemoglobin(Hb),total protein(TP),and creatinine(Cr)were significantly lower than those in the single HMPV infection group(P＜0.05).Compared with the non-severe pneumonia group,the levels of WBC,Hb,PLT,and CRP in the severe pneumonia group were significantly increased(P＜0.05).Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that age＜3 years,co-infection,and CRP≥20 mg/L were risk factors for severe HMPV pneumonia(P＜0.05).Conclusion HMPV is one of the important pathogens causing acute respiratory tract infections in children in Jianyang area.The elevated levels of some laboratory indicators are associated with the severity of infection.Early and comprehensive bacteriological testing and detection of inflammatory markers are beneficial for guiding clinical treatment.

Objective:To analyze the differences in determination of fluoride level in drinking water by ion-selective electrode method and high-throughput rapid determination method.Methods:The precision test was carried out by using the two methods to measure two kinds of fluoride standard substances, water samples of external quality control assessment from 2021 to 2023 (two kinds each year) and the fluoride level in three drinking water samples (for 5 times/each sample). Accuracy testing was conducted by measuring the external quality control assessment water samples and the spiked recovery rates drinking water, and water samples were grouped (water fluoride ≤1.00, > 1.00 mg/L) and analyzed according to the "Hygienic Standards for Drinking Water" (GB 5749-85). SPSS 23.0 software was used for statistical analysis of the measurement results.Results:(1) The correlation coefficients ( r) of the working curves of the two methods were both > 0.990, meeting the quality control requirements. (2) In the precision test, when comparing the results of the two methods for detecting two kinds of fluoride standard substances, there was no statistically significant difference ( F = 0.36, 0.15, P = 0.564, 0.707), and the coefficients of variation ( CV) were all < 5%. The CV of the detection results of the external quality control assessment water samples and drinking water samples were < 5%. (3) In the accuracy test, when the fluoride concentration in water was ≤1.00 mg/L, there was no statistically significant difference in the spiked recovery rates between the two methods ( F = 0.49, P = 0.504). When the fluoride concentration in water was > 1.00 mg/L, there was a statistically significant difference in the spiked recovery rates between the two methods ( F = 24.75, P = 0.003). Conclusions:The ion-selective electrode method has the advantages of wide detection range and wide adaptability, while the high-throughput rapid determination method has high accuracy. Testing personnel can weigh and choose the appropriate determination method based on the actual laboratory conditions and sample concentration range.

The clinical diagnosis and treatment of urinary tract infection has long faced the challenges of insufficient standardization of diagnosis and treatment pathways,irrational use of antimicrobial drugs and high recurrence rate.How to optimize the hierarchical diagnosis and treatment pathway of urinary tract infection,standardize the use of antimicrobial drugs,and reduce the recurrence rate have always been the focus of clinical attention.There is significant heterogeneity in the existing diagnostic criteria for urinary tract infection,which seriously affects the comparability and evidence integration of clinical and research studies.In order to solve the above problems,a consensus on global multidisciplinary diagnostic criteria for urinary tract infection has been formed by international multidisciplinary experts after three rounds of Delphi method.Breaking through the traditional classification framework,the consensus innovatively established a four-dimensional quantitative scoring system including local symptoms and signs,systemic inflammatory response,quantitative analysis of pyuria and urine culture results,and established a hierarchical standard for stepwise urinary tract diagnosis according to the scoring threshold.Based on the key citations related to the consensus,this paper interprets in detail the basis for the selection of core indicators and the establishment of thresholds for the diagnosis of urinary tract infection in the consensus,and focuses on the key issues and implementation paths of the consensus in localization practice.This consensus provides a unified standard for standardizing the clinical diagnosis and treatment of urinary tract infection,improving the homogeneity of clinical research through standardized diagnostic processes,and promoting the standardization of UTI drug research and development and the rational use of antibiotics and precision.
