Objective In order to understand the current resistance status of Aedes albopictus(Ae. albopictus) adult population to commonly used insecticides and the resistance dynamics development in Zhejiang Province and provide a theoretical basis for the scientific and rational use of hygienic insecticides. Methods Resistance determination was carried out using the diagnostic dose method(GB/T 26347-2010)recommended by WHO in the adult mosquito contact cylinder method to monitor the resistance of Ae. albopictus field populations in 11 cities and districts in Zhejiang Province in 2024. Results The monitoring result showed that adult Ae. albopictus in 11 areas were resistant or suspected resistant populations to both cis-cypermethrin and permethrin; suspected and resistant populations to the organophosphate insecticide malathion were as high as 81.82%; while suspected resistance to the carbamate insecticide residual carbofuran accounted for 45.45%, and the rest of the monitoring sites were sensitive to it. Conclusions The result suggest that the generalized resistance of Ae. albopictus populations to pyrethroids and organophosphorus insecticides in the field in Zhejiang Province needs to be highly emphasized. In future mosquito vector and mosquito-borne disease control, insecticides should be selected based on the resistance monitoring information, while following scientific guidelines for insecticide use.

Objective We reviewed and analyzed the epidemiological data of 83 imported dengue fever cases reported in Fengtai District, Beijing, from 2007 to 2025, to delineate their epidemiological characteristics and guide the dengue fever prevention and control strategy in the future. Methods Data on dengue fever cases in Fengtai District from 2007 to 2025 were collected to identify the epidemic factors and characteristics using descriptive epidemiological method. Results All 83 dengue fever cases reported in this region over the past two decades have been imported from abroad or other domestic areas, with Southeast Asian countries being identified as the primary source of imported infections, accounting for 42 cases (50.60%), followed by 15 cases (18.07%) from Chinese provinces other than Beijing. The remaining import sources included 13 cases from South Asia,8 from African countries, and each from Oceania, South America, and Europe. Disease onset was found concentrated between May and November. The sex ratio (male-to-female) is 1.59:1. The age of onset ranged from 14 to 61 years old, with a median age of 36. The largest proportion of cases was observed among cadres and office workers (31 cases, 37.35%), followed by businessmen (13 cases, 15.67%), and householders or the unemployed (10 cases,12.05%). Travel visit was identified as the primary reason for their exposure history. Conclusions All dengue fever cases reported in Fengtai from 2007 to 2025 were imported, with an increasing trend of imported cases in Beijing originating from other Chinese provinces. It is essential to strengthen health education for foreign travelers and returning residents, enhance clinical diagnosis and treatment training for medical personnel, eliminate mosquito breeding sites, and reduce mosquito density through active patriotic health campaigns.

Objective:To evaluate the association between preoperative cardiometabolic multimorbidity (CMM) and postoperative delirium (POD) in elderly patients undergoing knee or hip replacement.Methods:Based on a perioperative neurocognitive dysfunction and biomarker lifestyle cohort, a nested case-control study was conducted using medical records of patients scheduled for elective knee or hip joint replacement at Qingdao Municipal Hospital from January 2022 to November 2023. Patients were divided into POD group ( n=124) and non-POD group ( n=414) based on whether POD occurred. The influencing factors were collected, and intergroup differences were analyzed. Logistic regression was used to identify the risk factors for POD, and sensitivity analysis was conducted to assess the stability of the regression model. A mediation model was employed to examine whether cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) biomarkers mediated the association between CMM and POD. Results:There were statistically significant differences in the rate of CMM, age, years of education, rate of hypertension, rate of diabetes mellitus, rate of coronary heart diseases, rate of stroke, Aβ 42 concentration, t-tau concentration, p-tau concentration, Aβ 42/t-tau ratio, and Aβ 42/p-tau ratio in CSF between POD group and non-POD group ( P<0.05). The results of logistic regression analysis showed that preoperative CMM was a risk factor for POD ( P<0.05). Mediation analysis revealed that the relationship between CMM and POD was partly mediated by Aβ 42 concentrations in CSF. Conclusions:Preoperative CMM is a risk factor for POD in elderly patients undergoing knee or hip replacement, and the CSF Aβ 42 concentration may play a partly mediating role in the association between preoperative CMM and POD.

Objective The aim of this study was to analyze the incidence and mortality of lymphoma and their changing trends in cancer registration areas of Liaoning Province from 2016 to 2020,and to provide data support for lymphoma prevention and treatment.Methods The data of tumor registration areas in Liaoning province from 2016 to 2020 were collected and sorted out,and the crude incidence,mortality,China standardized incidence and mortality,world standardized incidence and mortality,and cumulative rate of lymphoma were calculated;Joinpoint 5.0.2 software was used to analyze the changing trends of the above indicators from 2016 to 2020.Results From 2016 to 2020,the crude incidence of lymphoma in tumor registration areas of Liaoning Province was 7.43/100,000,age-standardized incidence by Chinese standard population(ASIRC)was 4.07/100,000,and age-standardized incidence by world standard population(ASIRW)was 3.95/100,000;the crude mortality was 4.29/100,000,age-standardized mortality by Chi-nese standard population(ASMRC)was 2.07/100,000,and age-standardized mortality by world standard population(ASMRW)was 2.02/100,000.The ASIRC and ASMRC were higher in males(4.62/100,000 and 2.53/100,000,respectively)than in females(3.56/100,000 and 1.61/100,000,respectively),also higher in urban areas(4.65/100,000 and 2.32/100,000,respectively)than in rural areas(2.46/100,000 and 1.65/100,000,respectively).The incidence and mortality of lymphoma increased with age.The in-cidence reached its peak in the 70-79 age group,and the mortality reached its peak in the 80+age group.From 2016 to 2020,the crude incidence of lymphoma increased from 6.86/100,000 to 8.22/100,000,with a statistically significant trend(APC=5.06％,95％CI;1.13％-9.14％,P=0.026).ASIRC increased from 4.01/100,000 to 4.45/100,000,with no statistical significance(P＞0.05).The crude mortality increased from 3.85/100,000 to 4.53/100,000,while ASMRC decreased from 2.02/100,000 to 2.01/100,000,with no statistically significant trend in the two changes(P＞0.05).Conclusions The incidence and mortality of lymphoma in cancer registration areas of Liaoning Province are higher in men than those of women,and higher in cities than those in rural areas,and reach the peak in the elderly group.The prevention and control of key populations and health management should be strength-ened,especially pay attention to the health needs of the elderly population,and explore possible directions for multidisciplinary collab-orative diagnosis and treatment to reduce the disease burden.

Sigma-1 receptor (σ ₁R) has become a focus point of drug discovery for central nervous system (CNS) diseases. A series of novel 1-phenylethan-1-one O-(2-aminoethyl) oxime derivatives were synthesized. In vitro biological evaluation led to the identification of 1a, 14a, 15d and 16d as the most high-affinity (K _i < 4 nmol/L) and selective σ ₁R agonists. Among these, 15d, the most metabolically stable derivative exhibited high selectivity for σ ₁R in relation to σ ₂R and 52 other human targets. In addition to low CYP450 inhibition and induction, 15d also exhibited high brain permeability and excellent oral bioavailability. Importantly, 15d demonstrated effective antipsychotic potency, particularly for alleviating negative symptoms and improving cognitive impairment in experimental animal models, both of which are major challenges for schizophrenia treatment. Moreover, 15d produced no significant extrapyramidal symptoms, exhibiting superior pharmacological profiles in relation to current antipsychotic drugs. Mechanistically, 15d inhibited GSK3β and enhanced prefrontal BDNF expression and excitatory synaptic transmission in pyramidal neurons. Collectively, these in vivo proof-of-concept findings provide substantial experimental evidence to demonstrate that modulating σ ₁R represents a potential new therapeutic approach for schizophrenia. The novel chemical entity along with its favorable drug-like and pharmacological profile of 15d renders it a promising candidate for treating schizophrenia.

AIM: To analyze the clinical utility and value of the ultra-wide-field swept-source optical coherence tomography angiography(UWF-SS-OCTA)technique in changes of blood flow density and thickness in the central and peripheral regions of the retina and choroid in patients with nonproliferative diabetic retinopathy(NPDR)with or without diabetic kidney disease(DKD).METHODS: Cross-sectional study. Totally 50 cases(50 eyes)of diabetes mellitus(DM)that visited our hospital between June 2023 and June 2024 were included. They were divided into three groups: NPDR combined with DKD group(DKD group, n=20), NPDR without DKD group(NDKD group, n=20), and DM without retinopathy group(DM group, n=10, which served as control). In order to investigate the impact of DKD on ocular microangiopathy in NPDR patients, the retina and choroid within 24 mm×20 mm of the scan were separated into central and peripheral areas using the 3×3 nine-grid partition option that comes with UWF-SS-OCTA, and the parameters were then quantitatively assessed.RESULTS:The central and peripheral blood flow density of the choroidal capillary layer(CCP)was statistically significant between the DM group and the DKD group(t=3.93, P=0.0003; t=3.34, P=0.0016), and between the NDKD group and the DKD group(t=-3.06, P=0.003; t=-2.55, P=0.013), but there was no statistically significant difference between the DM group and the NDKD group(t=1.44, P=0.157; t=1.26, P=0.21). The mid-large choroidal vessel(MLCV)showed a progressive decline in central and peripheral blood flow density in the DM, NDKD, and DKD groups(F=13.74, 19.03, all P<0.0001). The DM, NDKD, and DKD groups saw a progressive decrease in central and peripheral choroidal thickness(CT; F=10.72, P=0.0001; F=13.12, P<0.001).CONCLUSION:CCP, MLCV, and CT can be used as visual indicators to identify impaired renal function in patients with NPDR. UWF-SS-OCTA can support the development of precise and noninvasive monitoring and treatment technology for diabetic ocular microangiopathy, while also offering a scientific foundation for the joint management of DR and DKD.

With the establishment of bio-psycho-social medical model,both social and psychological factors play an important role in the occurrence,development and treatment of diseases.Hypertension is a common chronic multiple disease in China,and patients are often complicated with depression and other e-motional disorders.The interaction between hypertension and depression significantly increases the risk of poor prognosis.Current studies have shown a bidirectional promoting relationship between hypertension and depression,and they have some com-mon pathogenesis.However,the specific mechanism of their co-morbidity has not been fully elucidated.Renin-angiotensin sys-tem(RAS)plays an important role in the regulation of hyperten-sion and depression and other emotions.It is composed of two antagonistic pathways.The balance is maintained by angioten-sin-converting enzyme 2(ACE2).Therefore,this article reviews the relationship and mechanism of RAS in hypertension,depres-sion and comorbid states,in order to provide new treatment ide-as for hypertension and depression.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy of peritoneal dialysis (PD) in the treatment of acute kidney injury (AKI) in critically ill neonates.Methods:It was a retrospective study. The baseline characteristic data, PD protocols, PD catheter placement methods and clinical outcomes of AKI neonates who underwent PD in the General Hospital of Ningxia Medical University between July 2015 and December 2024 were collected and analyzed.Results:(1) Among the 8 neonates with AKI, gestational age was (30.38±6.02) weeks, and birth weight was 1 397.5 (839.0, 2 312.5) g, with 6 premature infants. The time from birth to AKI onset was 144 (48, 294) hours. The leading cause of AKI was sepsis (6/8). The treatment time of PD was (93.12±37.20) hours. (2) Renal function recovery: After PD treatment, urine output was significantly increased ( Z=-3.29, P<0.001), and serum creatinine was significantly decreased ( t=2.66, P=0.032). (3) Hyperkalemia: Six out of 8 patients presented with hyperkalemia, which significantly decreased after PD treatment ( t=3.37, P=0.008). (4) Acid-base balance:Five out of 8 neonates had metabolic acidosis, and 3 of 5 neonates achieved basically complete correction (including lactic acidosis). There was no statistically significant difference in acid-base balance indicators before and after PD treatment (all P>0.05). (5) PD-related complications: Two out of 8 patients experienced peritoneal dialysate leakage, and no other PD-related complications occurred. (6) Outcomes: The hospital stay was 27.0 (8.0, 57.5) days. Four out of 8 neonates survived, while the other 4 neonates died after withdrawal of treatment. The primary cause was multiple organ failure. Conclusions:PD is a safe and effective treatment for neonatal AKI, facilitating early renal recovery and correction of electrolyte and acid-base imbalances.

In this single-arm prospective cohort study, the aim was to evaluate the antihypertensive efficacy and safety of the angiotensinⅡreceptor-neprilysin inhibitor sacubitril/valsartan in patients with refractory hypertension (RH) undergoing peritoneal dialysis. A total of 67 peritoneal dialysis patients with regular treatment for ≥ 3 months and confirmed RH were enrolled. Sacubitril/valsartan was added to the background antihypertensive therapy and titrated according to a standardized protocol for 6 months. Data on RH control, demographic and clinical characteristics, and adverse reactions were collected before and after intervention. The mean values of valid 24 h ambulatory blood pressure recordings, nocturnal systolic blood pressure (SBP) dipping percentage, blood pressure variability parameters, and the blood pressure control rate were compared before and after treatment. Laboratory and clinical data were also compared. After a median follow-up of 8.0 (4.0, 12.5) months, 50 patients completed the study. After treatment, all blood pressure parameters significantly decreased compared with baseline. The mean values of valid 24 h SBP decreased by 9.52 mmHg ( t=4.79, P<0.001) and the mean values of valid 24 h diastolic blood pressure (DBP) decreased by 7.55 mmHg ( t=5.90, P<0.001). Day-time SBP decreased by 10.82 mmHg ( t=5.22, P<0.001) and day-time DBP by 8.41 mmHg ( t=6.28, P<0.001). Night-time SBP decreased by 6.93 mmHg ( t=2.81, P=0.007) and night-time DBP by 4.95 mmHg ( t=3.12, P=0.003). The standard deviation (SD) of 24 h-SBP ( t=2.43, P=0.018), 24 h DBP-SD ( t=3.82, P<0.001), day-time DBP-SD ( t=2.80, P=0.007), and the coefficient of variation of 24 h-DBP ( t=2.04, P=0.046) were significantly reduced. The blood pressure control rate increased from 14.90% to 44.80% ( χ2=12.89, P<0.001). During follow-up, no patient experienced acute deterioration of renal function. One case of hyperkalemia returned to normal after appropriate treatment, and no serious adverse events occurred. These findings suggest that sacubitril/valsartan effectively lowers blood pressure and improves the blood pressure control rate in peritoneal dialysis patients with RH, with favorable safety and tolerability.

Objective:To evaluate the association between preoperative cardiometabolic multimorbidity (CMM) and postoperative delirium (POD) in elderly patients undergoing knee or hip replacement.Methods:Based on a perioperative neurocognitive dysfunction and biomarker lifestyle cohort, a nested case-control study was conducted using medical records of patients scheduled for elective knee or hip joint replacement at Qingdao Municipal Hospital from January 2022 to November 2023. Patients were divided into POD group ( n=124) and non-POD group ( n=414) based on whether POD occurred. The influencing factors were collected, and intergroup differences were analyzed. Logistic regression was used to identify the risk factors for POD, and sensitivity analysis was conducted to assess the stability of the regression model. A mediation model was employed to examine whether cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) biomarkers mediated the association between CMM and POD. Results:There were statistically significant differences in the rate of CMM, age, years of education, rate of hypertension, rate of diabetes mellitus, rate of coronary heart diseases, rate of stroke, Aβ 42 concentration, t-tau concentration, p-tau concentration, Aβ 42/t-tau ratio, and Aβ 42/p-tau ratio in CSF between POD group and non-POD group ( P<0.05). The results of logistic regression analysis showed that preoperative CMM was a risk factor for POD ( P<0.05). Mediation analysis revealed that the relationship between CMM and POD was partly mediated by Aβ 42 concentrations in CSF. Conclusions:Preoperative CMM is a risk factor for POD in elderly patients undergoing knee or hip replacement, and the CSF Aβ 42 concentration may play a partly mediating role in the association between preoperative CMM and POD.
