Abstract Health literate schools (HeLit-Schools) play a significant role in fostering students health literacy. The paper elucidates the background and conceptual connotations of HeLit-Schools, and analyzes how HeLit-Schools effectively integrate and enhance the health literacy of schools in three aspects: philosophy and core drivers, strategy and method implementation, as well as evaluation mechanisms and standard setting. Furthermore, the paper explores the implications of foreign HeLit-Schools research and practice for China under the context of "Healthy China" construction, as well as the key strategies for Chinese schools in the implementation of HeLit-Schools, aiming to provide a new perspective and theoretical support for Chinese schools to practice the "Healthy China initiative" and strengthen school construction from the perspective of health literacy.

The cost-effectiveness analysis policy for drugs was institutionalized in Japan since 2019， realizing quantitative adjustment of price across varieties. A hierarchical categorization approach was adopted to select medicines with high expected annual sales. For selected medicines， adjustments were made to the premium and profit components within the existing price structure based on a pre-defined incremental cost-effectiveness ratio （ICER） threshold， effectively resolving the issue of inconsistent criteria and magnitudes caused by subjective judgment. Meanwhile， incentive measures like evaluation exemption or threshold enhancement were granted for specific medicines. Besides， a price adjustment mechanism， which was allowed for upward and downward adjustments， involving tiered ICER threshold and quantified formulas， had been established for the premium and profit components of drug price. In China’s National Reimbursement Drug List （NRDL） access， certain issues remained to be addressed： insufficient clarity in the quantitative mechanism of price formation， incomplete price adjustment measures， and lagging in the communication channels. It is recommended that the following measures could be referred to when further improving the scientificity and fairness of drug pricing during China’s NRDL access， such as enhancing the ICER threshold for medicines catering to special populations， quantifying criteria and extents for price adjustment， granting preferential pricing policies to pharmaceutical companies that present high-quality evidence of effectiveness， preceding communication channels with pharmaceutical companies， as well as exploring a price floor mechanism for the drugs with excessive price reduction.

Within traditional teaching models,students frequently assume a passive role in acquiring knowledge,potentially resulting in diminished motivation and limited engagement,particularly within the realm of Medical Immunology education.The inte-gration of role-playing,informed by constructivist learning theory,situated learning theory,and multiple intelligences theory,has demonstrated encouraging outcomes within clinical medical education settings.However,the extent to which this approach has been explored within the context of Immunology instruction remains insufficiently examined.This study investigates the utilization of role-playing as a pedagogical approach in Medical Immunology education,wherein students are assigned specific scenarios to simulate the functions of various immune components.The primary objective is to augment interactivity and the overall appeal of the learning pro-cess.Efficacy of this instructional method was evaluated through in-class quizzes,surveys,and performance analysis.The findings demonstrate that role-playing substantially enhances student engagement,comprehension,knowledge retention,and examination per-formance.In practical application,the integration of role-playing with ideological and political elements has the potential to enhance learning outcomes and foster students'enthusiasm for engaging in cutting-edge literature and immunological research.This approach also necessitates greater proficiency in teachers'professional competencies and organizational skills,as well as increased allocation of class time and spatial resources.Future research should investigate the applicability of role-playing across various educational levels and examine its potential integration with classroom ideological and political education.

Objective:To investigate the related factors of pleasure loss in patients with human immunodefi-ciency virus(HIV)/acquired immune deficiency syndrome(AIDS).Methods:Totally 237 patients with HIV/AIDS from a certain infectious disease hospital were selected and surveyed with a self-designed general information ques-tionnaire,the Temporal Pleasure Experience Scale(TEPS),Self Acceptance Scale(SAQ),Discrimination Percep-tion Scale(SIS),and Perceived Social Support Scale(PSSS).Results:The patient's TEPS score was(73.4±16.1).Stepwise linear regression analysis showed that the PSSS total scores,education level,and personal monthly income were positively correlated with the TEPS total scores(β=0.41,5.17,4.63),and age was negatively corre-lated with the TEPS total scores(β=-0.30).Conclusion:It suggests that more attention should be paid to the lack of pleasure in patients with HIV/AIDS,and the lack of pleasure is related to personal monthly income,educa-tion level,age and perceived social support.

Objective To investigate the effects of transcutaneous electrical acupoint stimulation at Neiguan combined with Danzhong on intraoperative remifentanil dosage and early postoperative pain in pa-tients undergoing radical mastectomy.Methods A total of 153 female patients undergoing radical mastecto-my under general anaesthesia aged 18-64 years,BMI 18.5-30.0 kg/m2 and ASA physical status Ⅰ or Ⅱwere enrolled.The patients were randomly assigned into three groups:single-acupoint(Neiguan)group,dual-acupoint(Neiguan and Danzhong)group and control group,51 patients in each group.TEAS for 30 minutes at different points(Neiguan combined with Danzhong for the dual-acupoint group,Neiguan for the single-acupoint group,no stimulation for the sham group)were given before anaesthesia induction.30 mi-nutes of disperse/dense stimulation of 2/10 Hz with an intensity of 4-11 mA was used.The consumption of remifentanil,time to recall and to extubation were recorded.The visual analogue scale(VAS)pain score in PACU and 24 hours after surgery,and patient satisfaction scores was recorded.Results The intra-operative remifentanil consumption in the dual-acupoint group was significantly less than groups single-acupoint and sham(P＜0.05).Patient satisfaction score 24 hours after surgery was significantly higher in the dual-acu-point group than those in groups single-acupoint and sham(P＜0.05).The VAS scores in PACU and 24 hours after surgery had no significantly differences among the three groups.Conclusion Compared with single-acupoint,stimulation at Neiguan combined with Danzhong in patients undergoing radical mastectomy induced stronger remifentanil-sparing effect and higher patients'satisfaction after radical mastectomy.

Objectives: . The annual prevalence of chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is increasing, and the lack of effective treatments imposes a substantial burden on both patients and society. The formation of nasal polyps in patients with CRS is closely related to tissue remodeling, which is largely driven by the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT). MicroRNA (miRNA) plays a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of numerous diseases through the miRNA-mRNA regulatory network; however, the specific mechanism of the miRNAs involved in the formation of nasal polyps remains unclear. Methods: . The expression of EMT markers and Smad3 were detected using western blots, quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction, and immunohistochemical and immunofluorescence staining. Differentially expressed genes in nasal polyps and normal tissues were screened through the Gene Expression Omnibus database. To predict the target genes of miR-145-5p, three different miRNA target prediction databases were used. The migratory ability of cells was evaluated using cell migration assay and wound healing assays. Results: . miR-145-5p was associated with the EMT process and was significantly downregulated in nasal polyp tissues. In vitro experiments revealed that the downregulation of miR-145-5p promoted EMT. Conversely, increasing miR-145-5p levels reversed the EMT induced by transforming growth factor-β1. Bioinformatics analysis suggested that miR-145-5p targets Smad3. Subsequent experiments confirmed that miR-145-5p inhibits Smad3 expression. Conclusion . Overall, miR-145-5p is a promising target to inhibit nasal polyp formation, and the findings of this study provide a theoretical basis for nanoparticle-mediated miR-145-5p delivery for the treatment of nasal polyps.

OBJECTIVE: Our study aimed to conduct genomic characterization of Salmonella strains carrying the bla _NDM-1 gene in the intestinal tract of healthy individuals. The objectives were to underscore the importance of genomic surveillance for drug resistance in both commensal and pathogenic bacteria among healthy populations, and to establish protocols for regulating drug resistance plasmids based on the completion of a comprehensive map of drug resistance plasmid genomes. METHODS: We performed antimicrobial susceptibility testing and employed second- and third-generation sequencing techniques to analyze Salmonella strains harboring the bla _NDM-1 gene, to surveil drug-resistant bacteria in the intestines of healthy subjects. Sequence comparison was conducted using both core- and pan-genome approaches. Concurrently, conjugation experiments were carried out to assess the efficiency of plasmid transfer. RESULTS: We isolated a carbapenem-resistant Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium strain from a healthy food worker in China. This strain harbored an IncHI2/IncHI2A plasmid carrying bla _NDM-1 along with multiple antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs). Our findings highlight the potential for asymptomatic carriers to facilitate the transmission of ARGs. Pan-genomic analysis revealed that bla _NDM-1-positive plasmids could traverse bacterial species barriers, facilitating cross-host transmission. CONCLUSION This study marks the first detection of bla _NDM-1 in Salmonella strains isolated from healthy individuals. We underscore the risk associated with the transmission of conjugative hybrid plasmids carrying bla _NDM-1, which have the potential to be harbored and transmitted among healthy individuals. Enhanced surveillance of drug-resistant pathogens and plasmids in the intestinal microbiota of healthy individuals could provide insights into the risk of ARG transmission and pathways for population-wide dissemination via ARG transfer factors.

Bacterial resistance is a serious problem in use of antibiotics and an urgent global public health challenge. The drug-resistant bacteria and drug-resistant genes carried by migratory birds are not only related to clinical antibiotics, but also the use of pesticides and veterinary drugs as well as the pollution of the surrounding environment of drug factories. However, studies on drug-resistant genes carried in migratory birds have been gradually reported around the world. Migratory birds have the characteristics of large range of movement and long flight distance, which leads to the complexity of bacterial resistance. Under the influence of environment and human activities, drug-resistant genes carried in bacteria are transmitted among species,human beings, domestic animals, environment and wild birds through mobile elements. This study summarizes the current situation of antibiotic resistance bacteria carried by migratory birds,the status of drug-resistant genes in migratory birds and the relationship between the resistance of migratory birds and the environment and human activities. The aim is to better understand the important role of migratory birds as hosts and vectors in the global spread of antibiotic resistance.

Objective To compare the hemostatic safety and efficacy of a new butterfly femoral artery compression device (FACD) with those of manual compression (MC) in patients undergoing percutaneous peripheral endovascular interventions via femoral artery. Methods A total of 283 patients, who received percutaneous endovascular interventions via femoral artery during the period from September 2016 to December 2017, were enrolled in this study. After endovascular intervention, 167 patients received FACD to make hemostasis (FACD group), and 116 patients received MC hemostasis (MC group) . The patient's comfortableness, time used for hemostasis (min), limb immobilization time (h), and the incidence of vascular complications in both groups were analyzed. Results All 283 patients were included in analysis, the results indicated that the hemostatic success rates in FACD group and MC group were 96.4％ (161/167) and 94.0％ (109/116) respectively, the difference between the two groups was not statistically significant (P>0.05) . The postoperative Kolcaba Comfort Scale score of FACD group was (85.0 ±11.2) points, which was remarkably higher than (58.4±11.7) points of MC group (P<0.05), the time used for hemostasis in FACD group was (9.2 ±2.2) min, which was strikingly shorter than (18.5 ±2.9) min in MC group (P <0.05) . The limb immobilization time in FACD group was (10.4±2.4) hours, which was obviously shorter than (23.1±4.1) hours in MC group (P <0.05) . The incidence of vascular complications in FACD group was 3.6％, which was dramatically lower than 9.5％ in MC group (χ2=4.206, P=0.04) . Conclusion The use of the new butterfly FACD can promptly, safely and effectively stop bleeding of femoral artery puncture site. The new butterfly FACD is superior to MC in shortening hemostatic time and limb immobilization time, in reducing incidence of vascular complications, as well as in improving patient's comfortableness degree.
