Objective: To investigate the status of overweight and obesity among primary and middle school students in Yuyao City, Zhejiang Province, so as to provide the basis for formulating weight management strategies for students. Methods: A census was conducted to investigate 72 primary schools and 23 middle schools students in Yuyao City in 2024, and data such as gender and age were collected through questionnaire surveys. Height and weight were measured to calculate the body mass index (BMI). Based on the BMI thresholds for different gender and age groups, overweight and obesity were determined. Results: Totally 75 082 individuals were surveyed, including 40 435 boys and 34 647 girls. Among them, 55 172 were primary school students and 19 910 were middle school students. A total of 8 677 overweight and 7 042 obese individuals were identified, with detection rates of 11.56% and 9.38%, respectively. The detection rates of overweight and obesity in boys were higher than in girls (14.01% vs. 8.69%, 11.58% vs. 6.81%, both P<0.05). The detection rate of obesity among students in rural schools was higher than students in urban schools (10.12% vs. 8.18%, P<0.05). The detection rates of overweight and obesity of students with non-local household registration were higher than students with local household registration (12.04% vs. 10.77%, 10.44% vs. 7.64%, both P<0.05). The detection rate of overweight showed an upward trend with age (P<0.05), while no significant age-related trend was observed for obesity (P>0.05). Conclusions The detection rates of overweight and obesity were notably high among primary and middle school students in Yuyao City. Boys, students in rural schools, students with non-local household registration, and older students are the key population.

Objective To explore the mechanism of Yizhu Wendan Decoction in treating eczema through GEO database combined with network pharmacology and experimental verification.Methods TCMSP,BATMAN-TCM and ETCM databases were used to screen the active components of Yizhu Wendan Decoction.Disease target information related to eczema was collected through GEO database.The drug-component-target network and PPI network were constructed by intersections of active component targets and disease targets.GO and KEGG pathway enrichment analyses were performed using DAVID database.CCK-8 method was used to screen out the optimal intervention concentration of freeze-dried powder of Yizhu Wendan Decoction.HaCaT cells were divided into control group,model group,Yizhu Wendan Decoction low concentration group,Yizhu Wendan Decoction high concentration group,si-IL-17RA group,si-IL-17RA+Yizhu Wendan Decoction low concentration group,si-IL-17RA+Yizhu Wendan Decoction high concentration group,Dexamethasone group,si-IL-17RA+Dexamethasone group.Each group was given relevant intervention.The expressions of chemokines and inflammatory factors were detected by qPCR.EdU and Annexin V-FITC/PI double staining were used to detect cell proliferation and apoptosis.Western blot was performed to detect the expressions of proteins related to apoptosis,skin barrier and IL-17 signaling pathway.Results By using databases,180 active components of Yizhu Wendan Decoction were obtained.Combined with GEO database microarrays related to eczema(GSE6012 and GSE57225),8 potential targets of Yizhu Wendan Decoction in the treatment of eczema were obtained.KEGG enrichment pathway mainly involved IL-17 signaling pathway,lipid and atherosclerotic,TNF signaling pathway,fluid shear stress and atherosclerotic,etc.When Yizhu Wendan Decoction freeze-dried powder concentration was 100 μg/mL,cell viability was the strongest.Yizhu Wendan Decoction could significantly inhibit the mRNA expressions of chemokines and inflammatory factors CCL17,CCL22,IL-1β,TNF-α,IL-6,IFN-γ,and increase the mRNA expression of IL-4 in eczema.It promoted the proliferation of HaCaT cells,increased the protein expression of Bcl-2,and reduced the protein expressions of Bad and Cleaved Caspase-3,thus inhibiting HaCaT cells apoptosis;promoted the protein expressions of FLG and LOR,and reduced the expression of MMP9,MMP1,CCL2,FOSL1,IL-17RA proteins in IL-17 signaling pathway.Conclusion Yizhu Wendan Decoction can treat eczema with multiple components,multiple pathways and multiple targets,promote the proliferation of HaCaT cells,inhibit their apoptosis,and restore the skin barrier.Its mechanism may be related to inhibiting the activation of IL-17 signaling pathway.

This article analyzed the clinical data of a patient with acute benzene poisoning caused by oral ingestion of 100 ml of pure benzene. The patient presented with multiple organ dysfunction syndrome, manifested as consciousness disorders, abnormal coagulation function with hematuria, and delayed liver injury. After comprehensive treatment including fluid replacement, diuresis, protection of vital organs, and nutritional support, the patient was discharged after recovery. Poisoning caused by oral administration of large doses of benzene is rare. Analyzing the diagnosis and treatment process of this patient can enhance clinicians' understanding of acute benzene poisoning, provide empirical references for the clinical treatment of such poisoning patients, and improve their survival rate as much as possible.

Objective:To compare the enrichment effects of ultrafiltration, polyethylene glycol (PEG) precipitation, aluminum salt precipitation, and anionic membrane adsorption-elution on viruses in drinking water.Methods:Using phage MS2 as the target virus, three different concentrations of drinking water samples were prepared, and the samples were enriched by ultrafiltration 1, ultrafiltration 2, PEG precipitation, aluminum salt precipitation, and anionic membrane adsorption-elution method, respectively. Real-time fluorescence quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) was used to quantify MS2 nucleic acid in pre and post concentrated samples and the recovery rates of MS2 in samples with high, medium and low concentrations were compared among the five methods.Results:Comparing the MS2 enrichment recovery rates of individual enrichment method in water samples of different concentrations, ultrafiltration method 1, PEG precipitation method, aluminum salt precipitation method, and membrane adsorption-elution method were not affected by the sample concentration, and the differences of the recovery rates for the three concentration water samples among the four methods were not statistically significant ( P>0.05). The MS2 enrichment recovery rates of the five enrichment methods were significantly different in all concentration samples ( P<0.05). The recovery rates of ultrafiltration method 1 were higher in all three concentration samples, followed by aluminum salt precipitation and anionic membrane adsorption-elution, PEG precipitation were higher in high concentration samples, but lower in low and medium concentration samples, and the recovery rates of ultrafiltration method 2 were the lowest in all three concentration samples. Comparing the Ct values of MS2 in the enriched samples by five methods, the Ct values of ultrafiltration method 1 were the smallest in the three concentration water samples. There was no statistically significant difference in MS2 Ct values among the five enrichment methods in the medium and high concentration water samples ( P>0.05). In low concentration simulated water samples, only the difference of MS2 Ct value between ultrafiltration method 1 and ultrafiltration method 2 was statistically significant ( Z=16.000, P=0.016). Conclusions:Considering the operation simplicity, operation time and virus recovery rate after enrichment, ultrafiltration was the most effective method for virus enrichment in drinking water.

Objective To construct a patient decision aid(PtDA)for exercise training in pa-tients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD)and explore its impacts on decision-making quality of patients' exercise regimens.Methods The development of the PtDA for exercise training in COPD patients was accomplished through literature analysis,the Delphi method,and user surveys,followed by an intervention study.A total of 59 inpatients with COPD were included as study sub-jects.The control group received routine care along with general exercise training guidance,while the intervention group received routine care combined with shared decision-making for exercise training based on the PtDA.The decision conflict and decision preparedness levels of patients in both groups were compared before the intervention and on the day of discharge.The exercise self-efficacy of pa-tients was measured before intervention,on the day of discharge,and 1 month and 3 months after dis-charge.Results The intervention group had significantly lower scores for decision conflict and signif-icantly higher scores for decision preparedness and exercise self-efficacy compared with the control group(P＜0.05).Conclusion The PtDA for exercise training can improve decision conflict and de-cision preparedness in COPD patients,enhance their exercise self-efficacy levels,and provide references for healthcare professionals in improving exercise adherence.

[Purpose]To analyze the epidemiology and disease burden of gastric cancer in China,Japan and Republic of Korea from 1990 to 2021 and to predict changing trends from 2022 to 2031.[Methods]Data were obtained from the Global Burden of Disease(GBD)database.Age-stan-dardized incidence rate(ASIR),age-standardized mortality rate(ASMR),crude incidence rate(CIR),crude mortality rate(CMR),and disability-adjusted life years(DALY)rate for China,Japan and Republic of Korea from 1990 to 2021 were analyzed.Joinpoint regression software was used to analyze trends and calculate annual percentage changes.The autoregressive integrated moving average(ARIMA)model was applied to predict incidence and mortality from 2022 to 2031.[Results]In 2021,China had 611 799 new gastric cancer cases and 445 013 deaths,with an ASIR of 29.05/105 and an ASMR of 21.51/105,both significantly higher than those in Japan and Republic of Korea.Among men in China,both the ASIR(44.48/105)and ASMR(32.61/105)were the highest among the three countries,exceeding those in Japan(38.77/105,20.26/105)and Re-public of Korea(38.98/105,20.50/105).Among women,China had the highest number of new cases,but its ASIR(15.23/105)was slightly lower than Republic of Korea's(15.57/105)and higher than Japan's(14.66/105).However,China's ASMR among women(12.02/105)remained significantly higher than Japan's(7.64/105)and Republic of Korea's(8.08/105).From 1990 to 2021,ASIR,ASMR and DALY rates for gastric cancer declined in all three countries,but the reduction in China was significantly smaller than that in Japan and Republic of Korea,with Republic of Korea showing the steepest declines across all indicators.ARIMA model predictions indicated significant differences in disease burden among the three countries from 2022 to 2031.ASIR is projected to continue declining in China and Republic of Korea,reaching 22.87/105 and 12.45/105,respectively by 2031,while in Japan it is predicted to rise to 26.55/105.ASMR is projected to decline in all three countries,reaching 13.71/105(China),10.44/105(Japan),and 9.08/105(Republic of Korea)in 2031.[Conclusion]Among China,Japan and Republic of Korea,China had the highest ASIR and ASMR of gastric cancer in 2021.Moreover,from 1990 to 2021,the reductions in ASIR,ASMR and DALY rates for gastric cancer were the smallest in China compared to Japan and Republic of Korea.These findings suggest that the disease burden of gastric cancer remains substantial in China,high-lighting the need for increased efforts in gastric cancer screening and early diagnosis and treatment.

OBJECTIVE To study the anatomic characteristics of the anterior ethmoidal canal(AEC)based on 0.1 mm ultra-high resolution CT.METHODS Nine cadavers(18 side orbits)fixed in 10%buffered formalin were enrolled and underwent U-HRCT and MSCT.Divided AEC into horizontal,superior oblique,and inferior oblique segments and observed the displaying rate of each section.Subjective evaluation of display situation was performed by two experienced radiologists independently.The diameter of each AEC segment was measured.RESULTS No significant difference was found in the display rate of the horizontal and superior oblique segments between U-HRCT and MSCT groups(P>0.05),the display rate of inferior oblique segment of U-HRCT group was significantly higher than MSCT group(P<0.05).There was no significant difference in the objective evaluation results between two evaluators and consistency was strong.Subjective scores of each segment of AEC in U-HRCT group were 10.00 points(9.75 points,10.00 points),2.00 points(2.00 points,3.00 points)and 8.00 points(6.00 points,10.00 points),in MSCT group were7.00 points(5.75 points,8.00 points),2.00 points(2.00 points,2.00 points)and 2.00 points(2.00 points,4.00 points).Subjective scores of horizontal and inferior oblique segments of AEC in U-HRCT were higher than MSCT(P<0.05).The anteroposterior diameter of the horizontal section of AEC is(0.92±0.12)mm,the axial diameter is(1.04±0.22)mm.The anteroposterior diameter of the inferior oblique segment is(0.47±0.08)mm,and the transverse diameter is(0.50±0.06)mm.The anteroposterior diameter of the superior oblique segments is(0.66±0.11)mm,and the transverse diameter is(0.72±0.20)mm.CONCLUSION U-HRCT is better to evaluate AEC than MSCT.It could be used to help to study the anatomic characteristics of AEC before surgery to avoid complications.
