Objective To quantitatively assess the exposure-response association between exposure to heatwave and sudden death, estimate the attributable excess deaths, and identify potential vulnerable subgroups. Methods A time-stratified case-crossover study was conducted among residents who died from sudden death in Jiangsu Province, China between 2015 and 2021. Heatwave events in Jiangsu Province, defined using varying relative temperature thresholds and durations, were identified using temperature data from the China Meteorological Administration Land Data Assimilation System (CLDAS V2.0). Individual heatwave exposure was assessed based on each subject's residential address. The exposure-response association between heatwave and sudden death was evaluated using conditional logistic regression model combined with a Distributed Lag Nonlinear Model(DLNM). Heatwave-attributable excess deaths were estimated. Stratified analyses by sex and age were performed to assess potential effect modifications. Results Under all definitions, exposure to heatwave was significantly associated with an increased risk of sudden death, and the risk increased with the intensity of heatwave. Using the P95_3d definition (temperature exceeding the 95th percentile for ≥3 consecutive days), heatwave was significantlyassociated with a 56% increased risk of sudden death (95% CI: 31%, 86%). The population-attributable fraction of sudden death due to heatwave exposure was 1.45% (95% CI: 0.97%, 1.90%). Stratified analyses indicated no statistically significant differences in the association between heatwave exposure and sudden death across age or sex subgroups. Conclusion Heatwave exposure was associated with an increased risk of sudden death. Reducing heatwave exposure during summer may help lower the occurrence of sudden death.

Objective: To explore the association between nap duration with anxiety and depressive symptoms among junior high school students, in order to provide evidence for mental health interventions for adolescents. Methods: From May to June 2022, a combination of convenience sampling and cluster sampling was used to select 2 491 students from 2 junior high schools in Haizhu District, Guangzhou City for questionnaire survey and physical examination. The questionnaire collected nap duration, night time sleep duration, bedtime, physical activity, and sedentary behavior. Anxiety and depressive symptoms were assessed using Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) and Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7 (GAD-7), respectively. Log-binomial regression model was used to analyze the association of nap duration with anxiety and depressive symptoms, as well as comorbidity among junior high school students, and a restricted cubic spline (RCS) Log-binomial regression model was employed to analyze the non linear relationship after adjusting for covariates. Results: The detection rates of anxiety symptoms, depressive symptoms and comorbidity among junior high school students were 13.29%,14.65%,9.19%. After adjusting for covariates such as age, gender and nighttime sleep duration, compared with a school day nap duration of <30 min/d, a nap duration of 30-<60 min/d was associated with a reduced risk of anxiety symptoms ( APR =0.68, 95% CI =0.49-0.98) and comorbidity ( APR =0.56, 95% CI =0.39-0.87)(both P < 0.05 ). Compared with no napping on weekends, a nap duration of 30-<60 min/d was associated with a reduced risk of anxiety symptoms ( APR =0.62, 95% CI =0.41-0.88), depressive symptoms ( APR =0.52, 95% CI =0.34-0.75) and comorbidity ( APR = 0.52 , 95% CI =0.30-0.83)(all P <0.05). RCS curves showed a nonlinear relationship between weekend nap duration and the prevalence of anxiety, depressive symptoms and comorbidity among junior high school students(all P non linear <0.05); weekend nap duration of <120 min was associated with a lower risk of anxiety and depressive symptoms, and weekend nap duration of >180 min was associated with an increased risk. Conclusions Appropriate nap duration can help reduce the risk of anxiety, depressive symptoms, and the comorbidity among junior high school students. Adolescents should be guided to reasonably arrange nap duration for promoting physical and mental health.

OBJECTIVE To establish a hospital preparation cost item library， providing a reference for the refined accounting management of preparation costs in medical institutions. METHODS Based on literature analysis and practical work experience， a preliminary list of cost items was drafted. The Delphi method was employed to screen and optimize the items by analyzing the questionnaire recovery rate， expert authority coefficient， item importance score， coefficient of variation， and Kendall’s W of concordance. RESULTS The questionnaire recovery rates for the two rounds of expert consultation were 95.7% and 100%， respectively； the expert authority coefficients were 0.937 and 0.939， respectively； Kendall’s W of concordance were statistically significant （ P ＜0.001）. The finally established hospital preparation cost item library included 6 first-level items （such as raw material and packaging material costs， human resource costs， and production operation costs） and 29 second-level items （including main drug raw material costs， production personnel compensation， and finished product full-item testing costs）， comprehensively covering dimensions such as raw materials and packaging materials， fixed asset depreciation and equipment maintenance， human resources， production operations， energy and environment， and R & D and other costs. CONCLUSIONS This study successfully establishes a scientific and reliable cost item library for medical institution preparations， which can guide institutions to itemize actual expenditures， provide structured evidence for autonomous pricing， and support data needs for the formulation of insurance access and payment policies for innovative preparations.

Objective:To investigate the effect of growth stimulation expressed gene 2(ST2)on intestinal microflora of mice with ConA-induced autoimmune hepatitis(AIH)by knockout.Methods:ST2 gene knockout mice were constructed by gene knockout technique.On this basis,AIH mouse model was established by ConA induction.The relative expression of cytokines was detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR(RT-PCR).Intestinal microorganisms were sequenced using the 16S rRNA high-through put sequencing method,and the sequencing results were analyzed using Microbial Ecology related software and database.Results:Com-pared with the control group,ALT and AST were decreased,the damage of liver was mild,and the relative expression of IL-6 was also decreased in the liver of mice with ConA-induced AIH after ST2 gene knockout.There was no significant difference in the ACE and CHAO indices of the abundance of reactive flora.There was no significant difference between Shannon index and Simpson index re-flecting bacterial diversity.Psychrobacter,unclassified_Clostridia,Halothiobacillus,Clostridium_XlVa and Haemophilus genus content increased;Romboutsia,Rikenella,Parabacteroides and unclassified_Clostridiales bacterial content reduce.The areas under the receiv-er operator characteristic(ROC)curves were 0.88,0.89,0.88,0.80,0.90,0.90,0.84,0.91 and 0.84,respectively.Conclusion:Knockout of ST2 gene expression in mice with AIH can reduce liver injury and inflammation,and does not affect the distribution abun-dance and diversity of intestinal flora.However,there are differences among bacteria genera,and it has good diagnostic value.

Objective To analyze the difference of rotator cuff muscle group fat content by MR proton density fat fraction(PDFF)tech-nology,and to explore the correlation between these variations and the severity grading of supraspinatus tendon injury.Methods Ninety-three patients with supraspinatus tendon injury were retrospectively selected and divided into the tendinitis group(grade Ⅰ),the partial tear group(grade Ⅱ),and the complete tear group(grade Ⅲ).The fat fraction(FF)values of the three groups of rotator cuff mus-cle group were measured using the PDFF technology,and the differences in FF values among the rotator cuff muscle group in the three groups were compared.The risk factors of the grading of supraspinatus tendon injury and the correlation between FF values and the severity grading of supraspinatus tendon injury were analyzed.Results The differences in the FF values of the supraspinatus and infraspinatus muscles among the three groups were statistically significant(P＜0.01).The FF values of both the supraspinatus and infraspinatus muscles were identified as significant factors associated with the severity grading of supraspinatus tendon injury.Further-more,the FF values of the supraspinatus and infraspinatus muscles were positively correlated with the severity grading of supraspina-tus tendon injury(r=0.576,P＜0.01;r=0.510,P＜0.01).Conclusion MR PDFF technology can effectively evaluate the extent of fat infiltration in the rotator cuff muscle group after supraspinatus tendon injury.Specifically,the FF values of the supraspinatus and infraspinatus muscles serve as reliable quantitative indicators for classifying supraspinatus tendon injury.

Objective To explore the impact of admission modes on the reperfusion time and short-term prognosis of patients with acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction(STEMI).Methods 497 patients who visited the Chest Pain Center of Xiamen Cardiovascular Hospital of Xiamen University from January 2023 to November 2024 and were diagnosed with STEMI were included.All patients received direct percutaneous coronary intervention.According to admission modes,the patients were divided into the self-referral group(122 cases),emergency medical service group(EMS)(51 cases)and transfer PCI group(324 cases).The basic characteristics,reperfusion time,complications between group were compared.Results The age of the patients in this study was(58.64±13.62)years old,and there were 423 male cases(85.11%).Compared with the self-referral group and the EMS group,the time of door-wire in transfer PCI group was shorter[35(29,45)min vs.43(35,53)min vs.43(33,48)min,P＜0.001],but the time of first medical contact-wire was longer[123(80,192)min vs.43(35,52)min vs.57(51,76)min,P＜0.001].Compared with the self-referral group and the transfer PCI group,the time of symptom-to-first medical contact and the time of symptom-to-wire in EMS group were both shorter,which were[55(32,136)min vs.185(116,360)min vs.120(60,236)min,P＜0.001]and[136(101,188)min vs.228(169,413)min vs.282(190,400)min,P＜0.001].The incidence of infections in the transfer PCI group was lower than that in the self-referral group(12.65%vs.22.95%,P＜0.05).Conclusions To comprehensively enhance the treatment effect,it is necessary to prioritize the promotion and continuous optimization of the response process of EMS,simultaneously strengthen the standardized collaboration of referral,and enhance the identification ability of STEMI through public education to reduce the delay of self-referral patients..

To analyze the epidemiological characteristics of COVID-19 in Fujian Province from the 49th week of 2022 to the 5th week of 2023,after further optimization of China's COVID-19 prevention and control measures on December 7,2022(the 49th week of 2022),this study used multi-dimensional surveillance data to dynamically assess population infection levels and their changing trends.The aim of the study was to provide a scientific basis for early warning of epidemic risk,medical resource allocation,and evalu-ation of socio-economic impact.A multi-source data surveillance system was constructed,encompassing surveillance of fever clinics at medical institutions(weekly collection of visits,positive nucleic acid and antigen test results,inpatients,and severe cases in sec-ondary or above hospitals),population nucleic acid test monitoring(weekly person-times and positivity rates of single-tube tests from the provincial system),sentinel hospital monitoring(weekly proportion of influenza-like illness visits at 18 sentinel hospitals and re-lated viral testing data),and monitoring of novel coronavirus variants(weekly systematic collection of genomic sequences of local and imported cases).Line charts were plotted weekly,and time series analysis,molecular epidemiological methods,and an improved SEIAR model were used to simulate epidemic spread.During the study period,the COVID-19 epidemic in Fujian Province exhibited three distinct stages.In the infection peak stage(52nd week of 2022),the provincial fever clinic visits reached 606 893 person-times,and a 49.2%positivity rate in population single-tube nucleic acid tests and 63.8%positivity rate in sentinel hospital monitoring were observed.In the medical load peak stage(2nd week of 2023),274 460 inpatients and 28 487 severe cases were recorded.In the epidemic decline stage(4th to 5th weeks of 2023),fever clinic visits decreased by 96.3%with respect to the peak,the single-tube nucleic acid test positivity rate decreased to 6.3%,and the sentinel hospital COVID-19 nucleic acid test positivity rate was 6.4%.All 508 sequenced local cases were Omicron variants,predominantly BA.5.2 and its sub-lineages(67.4%).Among 56 imported se-quenced cases,BA.5.2 and its sub-lineages accounted for 50.0%,and 16.1%comprised nine variants of interest including XBB and BQ.The model predicted the infection peak in the 52nd week of 2022,whereas the hospitalization peak lagged by approximately 10.6 days.Multi-source data monitoring revealed a three-stage development of the COVID-19 epidemic in Fujian.The BA.5.2 strain was dominant during the epidemic.The combination of multi-source monitoring data and modeling provides important references for epi-demic prevention and control,and highlights the need to improve the monitoring system in follow-up.

OBJECTIVE To establish a preparation method for Phellodendrine-11-O-β-D-glucuronide(M1),a metabolite of Phellodendrine(PHE),and to evaluate its regulatory effects on glycolipid metabolism disorder in insulin-resistant HepG2(IR-HepG2)cells.METHODS The preparation,extraction,separation,purification and identification of M1 were completed by in vitro incuba-tion of intestinal microsomes combined with liquid phase,mass spectrometry and NMR.With Metformin as positive control,IR-HepG2 cells were treated with low(25 μmol·L-1),medium(50 μmol·L-1)and high(100 μmol·L-1)doses of M1 for 24 h.Glucose con-sumption,glucose uptake,triglyceride(TG),total cholesterol(TC),high density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C)and low density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C)were quantified.The binding ability of M1 to the key targets INSR,IRS1,PI3K and AKT2 in the IRS1/PI3K/AKT pathway was explored through molecular docking technology.The effects of M1 on the mRNA and protein expression of these key targets in the IRS1/PI3K/AKT pathway were detected by qPCR and Western blot,respectively.RESULTS The purified product was confirmed by NMR as Phellodendrine-11-O-β-D-glucuronide(95%purity).Compared to the model group,all M1 do-ses significantly enhanced glucose consumption(P<0.01,P<0.001)and uptake(P<0.001)in IR-HepG2 cells,outperforming PHE(P<0.001).At medium and high doses,it could significantly reduce the content of TG and TC in cells(P<0.001),and its improve-ment effect at the TG level was better than that of PHE(P<0.01);while all concentrations decreased LDL-C(P<0.001)and in-creased HDL-C(P<0.01,P<0.001).Molecular docking revealed strong binding interactions between M1 and INSR,IRS1,PI3K,and AKT2.Compared with the model group,M1 administration group increased the expression of INSR,IRS1,PI3K,AKT2,and GLUT2 mRNA to varying degrees,downregulated the protein expression of p-IRS1/IRS1(P<0.001),and upregulated the protein ex-pression of PI3K,p-AKT/AKT,and p-GSK3β/GSK3β.CONCLUSION The established protocol enables high purity M1 prepara-tion.M1 alleviates IR by regulating IRS1/PI3K/AKT signaling pathway to improve the disorder of glycolipid metabolism.
