ObjectiveTo characterize the seasonal patterns of influenza in Kunming City, Yunnan Province before, during, and after the COVID-19 pandemic, and provide scientific evidence for optimizing influenza prevention and control strategies. MethodsInfluenza-like illness (ILI) and etiological surveillance data for influenza from the 14th week of 2010 to the 13th week of 2024 in Kunming City of Yunnan Province were collected. Harmonic regression models were constructed to analyze the epidemic characteristics and seasonal patterns of influenza before (2010/2011‒2019/2020 influenza seasons), during (2020/2021‒2022/2023 influenza seasons), and after (2023/2024 influenza season) the COVID-19 pandemic. ResultsBefore the COVID-19 pandemic, influenza in Kunming City mainly exhibited an annual cyclic pattern without a significant semi-annual periodicity, peaking from December to February of the next year, with an epidemic duration of 20‒30 weeks. During the pandemic, influenza seasonality shifted, with an increase in semi-annual periodicity and an approximate one month delay in annual peaks. However, after the pandemic, the annual amplitude of influenza increased compared with that before the pandemic, and the epidemic duration extended by about one month. Although the annual peak largely reverted to the pre-pandemic levels, the annual peaks for different influenza subtypes/lineages had not fully recovered. ConclusionInfluenza seasonality in Kunming City underwent substantial alterations following the COVID-19 pandemic and has not yet fully reverted to pre-pandemic levels. Continuous surveillance on different subtypes/lineages of influenza viruses remains essential, and prevention and control strategies should be adjusted and optimized in a timely manner based on current epidemic trends.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of Linggui Zhugantang on mitochondrial fission and fusion and silencing information regulator 3(Sirt3)/adenosine monophosphate dependent protein kinase (AMPK) signaling pathway in chronic heart failure (CHF) rats after myocardial infarction (MI). MethodSD rats randomly divide into sham operation group (normal saline ,thread only without ligature), model group (normal saline, ligation of the left anterior descending coronary artery proximal to the heart), Linggui Zhugantang group (4.8 g·kg-1) and Captopril group (0.002 57 g·kg-1), with 10 rats in each group. Administere drug continuously for 28 days. Echocardiography detected cardiac function parameters. Hematoxylin eosin (HE) staining observed the pathological changes of the heart. Immunofluorescence detected the levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS). JC-1 detect mitochondrial membrane potential. Colorimetry measure adenosine triphosphate (ATP), superoxide dismutase (SOD), malondialdehyde (MDA), mitochondrial respiratory chain complex activity (Ⅰ-Ⅳ). TdT-mediated dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL) staining detected the apoptosis rate of myocardial tissue. Western blot detected protein expression levels of Sirt3, phosphorylated AMPK (p-AMPK), phosphorylated dynamic-related protein 1(p-Drp1), mitochondrial fission protein 1(Fis1), mitochondrial fission factor (MFF), optic atrophy protein 1(OPA1). ResultCompared to the sham group, the left ventricular end diastolic diameter (LVIDd) and left ventricular end systolic diameter (LVIDs) were significantly increased in model group (P<0.01), while the left ventricular short axis shortening rate (LVFS) and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) were significantly decreased (P<0.01). There were inflammatory cell infiltration and obvious pathological injury in myocardial tissue. ROS, MDA levels and myocardial cell apoptosis rate were significantly increased (P<0.01), SOD level, ATP content, and membrane potential were significantly decreased (P<0.01). The activity of mitochondrial respiratory chain complexes (Ⅰ-Ⅳ) was significantly decreased (P<0.01). Levels of p-Drp1, Fis1, MFF proteins were significantly up-regulated (P<0.01), while Sirt3, p-AMPK, OPA1 proteins level were significantly down-regulated (P<0.01). Compared with model group, LVIDd and LVIDs were significantly decreased (P<0.01), LVEF and LVFS were significantly increased (P<0.01). Inflammatory cell infiltration and pathological damage of myocardial tissue were significantly relieved. ROS, MDA levels and myocardial cell apoptosis rate were significantly decreased in Linggui Zhugantang group and Captopril group (P<0.01), SOD level, ATP content, and membrane potential significantly increased (P<0.01). The activity of mitochondrial respiratory chain complexes (Ⅰ-Ⅳ) increased significantly (P<0.01),and p-Drp1, Fis1, MFF protein levels were significantly down-regulated (P<0.01), Sirt3, p-AMPK, OPA1 protein were significantly up-regulated (P<0.01). ConclusionLinggui Zhugantang can alleviate oxidative stress and apoptosis damage of myocardial cells, maintain mitochondrial function stability, and its effect may be related to mitochondrial mitosis fusion and Sirt3/AMPK signaling pathway.

Objective:To observe the application effect of BOPPPS combined with scenario simulation in standardized training of residents for "ultrasound-guided regional anesthesia" (UGRA).Methods:The anesthesiology students enrolled in 2019 for standardized resident training were selected as research objects. A total of 44 students were randomly divided into observation group ( n=22) and control group ( n=22). The control group received traditional teaching and the observation group received the BOPPPS combined with scenario simulation teaching. The differences in comprehensive theoretical knowledge and comprehensive ability of UGRA between the two groups were analyzed through the final assessment. The satisfaction of the two groups of students with teaching process was analyzed using the teaching feedback questionnaire. SPSS 20.0 statistical software was used for the t-test, and the non-parametric test was used in cases of unequal variance. Results:Compared with the control group, the observation group showed significantly higher scores of comprehensive theoretical knowledge [(75.86±9.31) points vs. (64.00±7.76)points] and ultrasonic image interpretation [(37.73±4.60) points vs. (30.86±4.57) points] ( P<0.05). Compared with the control group, the observation group showed significantly reduced time of ultrasonic localization of target nerve [(92.00±22.67) seconds vs. (107.32±23.35) seconds] and the puncture time of simulated teaching aids [(67.82±17.83) seconds vs. (103.18±19.15) seconds] ( P<0.05). The overall satisfaction of students was significantly higher in the observation group than in the control group ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The teaching method of BOPPPS combined with scenario simulation is helpful to improve students' comprehensive ability of UGRA such as comprehensive theoretical knowledge, the interpretation of ultrasound image, and the localization of target nerve.

Objective:To explore the role and the intervention effect of emodin in intestinal neuropathy in rats with severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) through the nucleotide binding oligomerization domain like receptor protein 3/cysteine containing aspartic acid protease-1 (NLRP3/Caspase-1) pathway.Methods:Forty male healthy SD rats aged 6-8 weeks with a weight of approximately 200g were randomly divided into control group, SAP model group, emodin treatment (EMO) group, and NLRP3 knockdown group. SAP were induced by retrograde injection of sodium deoxycholate into the pancreatic duct of rats and serum amylase of which were detected. The effective NLRP3 knockdown sequence was screened for NLRP3 knockdown animal experiments. Fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction was used to detect the expression of NLRP3, Caspase-1, gasdermin-D (GSDMD), interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-18 and tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α) in the small intestine of each group. Immunofluorescence staining was used to detect the expression of glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) in the small intestine of each group.Results:The amylase levels of the control group, SAP group, EMO group, and NLRP3 knockdown group were (277.73±24.92) U/L, (1018.57±282.89) U/L, (625.43±134.40) U/L, and (391.01±27.63) U/L, respectively. The SAP and EMO groups were significantly higher than the control group ( P<0.001), while the EMO and NLRP3 knockdown groups were significantly lower than the SAP group (all P<0.001). Compared with control group, the expression levels of NLRP3, Caspase-1, IL-1β, IL-18, TNF-α and GSDMD in SAP group were increased, with statistical significance (all P<0.001). Compared with SAP group, the NLRP3 knockdown group showed the expressionlevels of the above 6 genes were all decreased, and EMO group showed decreased gene expressing levels of NLRP3, IL-1β, IL-18 and TNF-α, with statistical significance (all P<0.05). The relative expression of GFAP in small intestine of control group, SAP group, EMO group and NLRP3 knockdown group were (1.00±0), (1.66±0.11), (1.13±0.02) and (1.13±0.02), respectively. Among them, the expression of GFAP in SAP group was increased compared with the control group; The expression of GFAP in EMO group and NLRP3 knockdown group was lower than that in model group, and the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05). Conclusions:Emodin and knocking down NLRP3 can both promote the repair of SAP small intestine injury through the NLRP3/Caspase-1 signaling pathway, and thus play a protective role in the intestine.
