In ground-based experiments,ultraviolet irradiation is used to charge simulated lunar dust,aiming to quantitatively study its charging and discharging behavior in space environments.However,due to factors such as vacuum and dust disturbances,the charging and discharging processes of lunar dust are difficult to measure accurately through contact methods.Therefore,this paper designs and constructs a non-contact,in-situ surface potential measurement system based on the principle of vibrating capacitance,suitable for vacuum environments.The system combines moving average and standard deviation methods for data filtering and introduces a weighted KNN algorithm to predict and compensate for missing or anomalous data,thereby improving measurement accuracy and stability.Two typical simulated lunar dust samples,TYII-2 and CLRS-1A,were selected for charging and discharging experiments under ultraviolet irradiation.The surface potential distribution was obtained in real-time using an in-situ motion mechanism equipped with a vibrating capacitance sensor.The results show significant differences in the charging response and dissipation characteristics of the samples with different particle size distributions.

Under the current situation of "low prevalence and low infection" of schistosomiasis in China, and to provide a basis for achieving the goal of eliminating schistosomiasis by 2030 proposed by the Healthy China Action (2019 - 2030) as scheduled, the Hunan Provincial Corps Hospital of the Chinese People's Armed Police Force established a schistosomiasis monitoring and early warning index system based on the previous studies on schistosomiasis early warning index system and the recent literature analysis, combined with the current potential risk factors affecting the transmission and prevalence of schistosomiasis, and organized two rounds of expert consultation and carried out project promotion meetings. The experts reached a consensus on the comprehensiveness and practicability of the index system, aiming to lay a solid foundation for construction of China's schistosomiasis prevention and control early warning system.

The goal of achieving elimination of schistosomiasis across all endemic counties in China by 2030 was proposed in the Outline of the Healthy China 2030 Plan. On June 16, 2023, the Action Plan to Accelerate the Elimination of Schistosomiasis in China (2023—2030) was jointly issued by National Disease Control and Prevention Administration and other 10 ministries, which deployed the targets and key tasks of the national schistosomiasis elimination programme in China. This article describes the progress of the national schistosomiasis control programme, analyzes the opportunities to eliminate schistosomiasis, and proposes targeted recommendations to tackle the challenges of schistosomiasis elimination, so as to accelerate the process towards schistosomiasis elimination and facilitate the building of a healthy China.

Obesity is a global public health problem that imposes a heavy economic burden on society. The current main strategies for treating obesity include lifestyle interventions, pharmacological treatments, endoscopic treatments and metabolic surgery. With the development of medical technology, weight reduction by intragastric occupancy devices represented by intragastric balloons and intragastric capsules are gradually emerging. Intragastric balloons are used to reduce weight by occupying the volume of the stomach with balloons filled with different volumes of gas or liquid, among which ReShape, Orbera, Obalon, Elipse and Spatz balloons are gradually used in patients with mild to moderate obesity due to their non-invasive, high safety and reusable advantages. Intragastric capsules are recommended in overweight and obese patients for weight loss through hydrogels with transient superabsorbent swelling properties and completely noninvasive. Both approaches achieve weight loss by limiting gastric volume, increasing satiety and reducing food intake. Despite the presence of adverse gastrointestinal events associated with nausea, vomiting, and abdominal distention, they offer new ideas for the non-invasive clinical treatment of obesity.

Objective:To study the surgical safety and efficacy of preoperative neoadjuvant therapy with immune checkpoint inhibitors combined with anti-angiogenic drugs in patients with China liver cancer staging(CNLC)-Ⅱb and Ⅲa resectable hepatocellular carcinoma.Methods:The data of 129 patients with Ⅱb and Ⅲa hepatocellular carcinoma who underwent surgery at the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from January 2018 to December 2020 were analyzed. All patients were divided into two groups: the neoadjuvant therapy group( n=14,13 males and 1 female,aged (55.4±12.6)years(range:34 to 75 years)) received immune combined targeted therapy before surgery,immune checkpoint inhibitor camrelizumab was administered intravenously at a dose of 200 mg each time,every 2 weeks for 3 cycles,anti-angiogenesis drug apatinib was taken orally and continuously with a dose of 250 mg for 3 weeks and the conventional surgery group( n=115,103 males and 12 females,aged (55.8±12.0)years(range:21 to 83 years)) did not receive antitumor systemic therapy before surgery. There were 3 patients with CNLC-Ⅱb,11 with CNLC-Ⅲa in the neoadjuvant group;28 patients with CNLC-Ⅱb,87 with CNLC-Ⅲa in the conventional group. Student′s t test or rank-sum test was used to compare the differences between two groups for quantitative data, Fisher′s exact probability method was used to compare the differences of proportions between two groups, and Log-rank test was used to compare survival differences between two groups. Results:The 1-year recurrence rate in the neoadjuvant group was 42.9%,and the 1-year recurrence rate in the conventional group was 64.0%,with a statistically significant difference between the two groups(χ2=3.850, P=0.050);The 1-year survival rate in the neoadjuvant group was 100% and that in the conventional group was 74.2%,with a statistically significant difference between the two groups(χ2=5.170, P=0.023). According to the stratified analysis of the number of tumors,for single tumor,the 1-year recurrence rate in the neoadjuvant group was 25.0%,and that in the conventional surgery group was 71.0%,and the difference between the two groups was statistically significant(χ2=5.280, P=0.022). For multiple tumors, the 1-year recurrence rate in the neoadjuvant group was 66.7%,and the 1-year recurrence rate in the conventional surgery group was 58.9%,with no significant difference between the two groups(χ2=0.110, P=0.736). The operative time,intraoperative blood loss,and postoperative hospital stay in the neoadjuvant group were similar to those in the conventional group,and their differences were not statistically significant. Conclusions:Immune checkpoint inhibitors combined with anti-angiogenic targeted drugs as a neoadjuvant therapy for resectable hepatocellular carcinoma can reduce the 1-year recurrence rate and improve the 1-year survival rate,especially for those with solitary tumor. Limited by the sample size of the neoadjuvant group,the safety of immune combined targeted therapy before surgery cannot be observed more comprehensively,and further studies will be explored.

Objective:To investigate the effects of ribonucleic acid for injection Ⅱ, often called RNA Ⅱ for short, combined with chemotherapeutic drug cyclophosphamide (CTX) on the tumor inhibition and survival of sarcoma cell S180 tumor-bearing mice.Methods:The solid transplanted tumor mouse model of sarcoma cell S180 and peritoneal fluid tumor mouse model were established respectively. CTX (25 mg/kg, once for 2 days) alone or combined with low-dose (25 mg/kg, once a day) and medium-dose (50 mg/kg, once a day) RNA Ⅱ were injected intraperitoneally into solid transplanted tumor mice for 10 d. CTX (25 mg/kg, once for 2 days) alone, medium-dose (50 mg/kg, once a day) or high-dose (100 mg/kg, once a day) RNA Ⅱ alone or combined with CTX were injected intraperitoneally into peritoneal effusion tumor mice until all mice died. The two models were set up for modeling groups without drug treatment, 8 mice in each group. The body mass of solid transplanted tumor mice after administration was weighed, the tumor tissue in vivo was taken out and weighed after the mice were executed, and the tumor inhibition rate was calculated. The body mass of peritoneal effusion tumor mice after administration was weighed, the growth rate of body mass was calculated, the survival curve of each group was drawn, and the life extension rate was calculated.Results:(1) Solid transplanted tumor mice: the body mass of mice in each administration group was lower than that in the modeling group after administration. During the administration period, the tumor volume in the modeling group was much higher than that in each administration group. From the 8th day of administration, the tumor volume in vivo in the CTX group began to be larger compared with that in the two combined administration groups. After stopping the administration and killing the mice, the weighing showed that the tumor mass of each administration group was lower than that in the modeling group (all P < 0.01), the tumor mass of CTX + RNA Ⅱ low-dose group and CTX + RNA Ⅱ medium-dose group was lower than that of CTX group (all P < 0.05), and the tumor inhibition rate of the two groups was higher than that of CTX group (83.6%, 77.2% vs. 58.5%). (2) Peritoneal effusion tumor mice: after administration for 12 d, the body mass growth rate of mice in CTX group was increased rapidly and reached the highest, and the body mass growth rate of mice in the two combined administration groups was lower than that in other groups. The life prolongation rates of RNA Ⅱ high-dose group and CTX group were 48.2% and 53.2% respectively, which had the same effect on life prolongation. The life prolongation rate in RNA Ⅱ medium-dose group was 20.9%. The life prolongation rates of CTX + RNA Ⅱ medium-dose group and CTX + RNA Ⅱ high-dose group were 94.2% and 105.0% respectively. Conclusions:RNA Ⅱ combined with CTX can significantly prolong the survival time of sarcoma cell S180 tumor-bearing mice, increase the tumor inhibition rate and improve the quality of life of the mice. Both of them have a synergistic effect.

Objective:To summarize and analyze the clinical data of Chinese patients with colony-stimulating factor 1 receptor (CSF1R)-related leukoencephalopathy, and clarify the phenotypic and genetic characteristics of Chinese patients.Methods:Medical history of patients with CSF1R-related leukoencephalopathy diagnosed from April 1, 2018 to January 31, 2021 in the department of neurology of 22 hospitals in China was collected, and scores of Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE), Montreal Cognitive Assessment Scale (MoCA), magnetic resonance severity scale were evaluated. Group comparison was performed between male and female patients.Results:A total of 62 patients were included, and the male-female ratio was 1∶1.95. The age of onset was (40.35±8.42) years. Cognitive impairment (82.3%, 51/62) and motor symptoms (77.4%,48/62) were the most common symptoms. The MMSE and MoCA scores were 18.79±7.16 and 13.96±7.23, respectively, and the scores of two scales in male patients (22.06±5.31 and 18.08±5.60) were significantly higher than those in females (15.53±7.41 , t=2.954, P=0.006; 10.15±6.26, t=3.328 , P=0.003). The most common radiographic feature was bilateral asymmetric white matter changes (100.0%), and the magnetic resonance imaging severity scale score was 27.42±11.40, while the white matter lesion score of females (22.94±8.39) was significantly higher than that of males (17.62±8.74 , t=-2.221, P<0.05). A total of 36 CSF1R gene mutations were found in this study, among which c.2381T>C/p.I794T was the hotspot mutation that carried by 17.9% (10/56) of the probands. Conclusions:The core phenotypic characteristics of CSF1R-related leukoencephalopathy in China are progressive motor and cognitive impairment, with bilateral asymmetrical white matter changes. In addition, there exist gender differences clinically, with severer cognitive impairment and imaging changes in female patients. Thirty-six CSF1R gene mutations were found in this study, and c.2381T>C/p. I794T was the hotspot mutation.

Aim To evaluate the mucosal-protective effects of carboxymethylpachyman( CMP) on Fluorou-racil(5-Fu)-induced mice intestinal mucositis and ex-plore its mechanisms. Methods ICR mice were as-signed randomly to four groups:normal group( n=8;re-ceiving pure water orally for 14 d) ,CMP group( n=8;200 mg·kg-1 CMP for 14 d orally),5-Fu group(n=8;25 mg·kg-1 5-Fu for 7 d,intraperitoneally( i. p. ) , and CMP+5-Fu group( n=8;200 mg·kg-1 CMP for 14 d orally and 25 mg·kg-1 5-Fu for 7 d,i. p. ). At day 14the mice were sacrificed. The intestinal propel-ling rate and the colon length were measured. ROS, GSH and IL-1βcontents,and CAT,GSH-Px activities in homogenate supernatant of PPs were measured by kits for observing the effects of CMP on mice lipid peroxida-tion and intestinal mucosal inflammatory induced by 5-Fu. Colon tissues were used for hematoxylin and eosin ( HE ) staining for the determination of the effect of CMP on mice colon histopathology, immunohistochem-istry for the protein levels of NF-κB and p-p38 . Results CMP significantly extended colon lengths,accelerate the intestinal propelling rates, reduced colonic mucosa epithelium goblet cell loss, inflammatory cells infiltra-tion,and crypt depth shallow induced by 5-Fu. CMP obviously reduced ROS and IL-1β contents, and pre-vented reductions in homogenate supernatant of PPs GSH content, CATand GSH-Px activities by 5-Fu ad-ministration,and also reduced the expression of NF-κB and p-p38 in colon tissues. However, CMP alone had no effect on the colon of normal mice. Conclusion The current study demonstrates that CMP may have sig-nificant protective effects against 5-Fu-induced intesti-nal mucositis. Its mechanism may be related to enhan-cing the antioxidant activity,anti-inflammatory and an-ti-apoptotic effects.
