Objective: To construct an evaluation index system of cervical cancer prevention and control literacy, so as to provide an assessment tool for cervical cancer prevention and control literacy. Methods: The preliminary framework for cervical cancer prevention and control literacy was designed based on literature review. Twenty-one experts with both theoretical and practical experience in cervical cancer prevention and control were invited to participate in two rounds of Delphi consultation. The weights of indicators were determined by the percentage weighting method and product method, and the response rate, authority level, opinion concentration degree, and coordination degree of experts were evaluated. Results: Twenty-one experts participated in the consultation, including 3 males and 18 females. There were 11 experts with a doctor's degree, 7 with a master's degree and 3 with a bachelor's degree. All of them had senior professional titles and had more than 10 years of working experience. The recovery rates of the two rounds of consultations were 100.00% and 95.24%, the authority coefficients were 0.963 and 0.948, and Kendall's coefficients of concordance were 0.175 and 0.148 (both P<0.05), respectively. The final cervical cancer prevention and control literacy evaluation index system included 3 primary indicators (basic knowledge and concepts: 0.334; healthy lifestyle and behaviors: 0.338; basic skills: 0.328), 12 secondary indicators, with "capability to accurately acquire, comprehend, evaluate and apply health information" having the highest weight (0.166), and 51 tertiary indicators, with "HPV vaccination" (0.086), "consulting on relevant issues" (0.082), and "expressing personal perspectives" (0.080) having relatively higher weights. Conclusion The evaluation index system of cervical cancer prevention and control literacy serves as a valid assessment tool for women of appropriate age, providing the reference for developing targeted health education to enhance cervical cancer prevention and control literacy.

OBJECTIVE: To analyze the rules of moxibustion for low back pain by ZHOU Meisheng by using data mining and knowledge graph technology. METHODS: Taking the medical cases of moxibustion for low back pain from ZHOU Meisheng's legacy manuscripts and existing works as the research objects, information on disease types, symptoms, tongue manifestations, pulse conditions, syndrome patterns, moxibustion methods and acupoints were collected.

OBJECTIVES: To study the molecular mechanisms of LDH-loaded si-NEAT1 for regulating paclitaxel resistance and tumor-associated macrophage (TAM) polarization in breast cancer. METHODS: qRT-PCR and Western blotting were used to detect the expression of lncRNA NEAT1, miR-133b, and PD-L1 in breast cancer SKBR3 cells and paclitaxel-resistant SKBR3 cells (SKBR3-PR). The effects of transfection with si-NEAT1 and miR-133b mimics on MRP, MCRP and PD-L1 expressions and cell proliferation, migration and apoptosis were investigated using qRT-PCR, Western blotting, scratch and Transwell assays, and flow cytometry. Rescue experiments were conducted using si-NEAT1 and miR-133b inhibitor. Human THP-1 macrophages were cultured in the presence of conditioned media (CM) derived from SKBR3 and SKBR3-PR cells with or with si-NEAT1 transfection for comparison of IL-4-induced macrophage polarization by detecting the surface markers. LDH@si-NEAT1 nanocarriers were constructed, and their effects on MRP, MCRP and PD-L1 expressions and cell behaviors of the tumor cells were examined. THP-1 cells were treated with the CM from LDH@si-NEAT1-treated tumor cells, and the changes in their polarization were assessed. RESULTS: SKBR3-PR cells showered significantly upregulated NEAT1 and PD-L1 expressions and lowered miR-133b expression as compared with their parental cells. Transfection with si-NEAT1 and miR-133b mimics inhibited viability, promoted apoptosis and enhanced MRP and BCRP expressions in SKBR3-PR cells. NEAT1 knockdown obvious upregulated miR-133b and downregulated PD-L1, MRP and BCRP expressions. The CM from SKBR3-PR cells obviously promoted M2 polarization of THP-1 macrophages, which was significantly inhibited by CM from si-NEAT1-transfected cells. Treatment with LDH@si-NEAT1 effectively inhibited migration and invasion, promoted apoptosis, and reduced MRP, BCRP and PD-L1 expressions in the tumor cells. The CM from LDH@si-NEAT1-treated SKBR3-PR cells significantly downregulated Arg-1, CD163, IL-10, and PD-L1 and upregulated miR-133b expression in THP-1 macrophages. CONCLUSIONS LDH@si-NEAT1 reduces paclitaxel resistance of breast cancer cells and inhibits TAM polarization by targeting the miR-133b/PD-L1 axis.

Objective:To improve the understanding of patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) with pulmonary cryptococcosis.Methods:The clinical data of 1 DLBCL patient with pulmonary cryptococcosis in the Central Hospital of Fengxian District of Shanghai in May 2023 were retrospectively analyzed, and the relevant literatures were reviewed.Results:This 75-year-old female patient was asymptomatic after 2 cycles of R-CHOP chemotherapy. The high-resolution CT of lung showed that lung nodules were progressively enlarged. Antibacterial treatment was ineffective. Pulmonary cryptococcosis was confirmed by bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) targeted high-throughput sequencing (tNGS) and cryptococcus capsular antigen (CrAg) detection. The central nervous system was not involved. And the long-term adequate-dose fluconazole was prescribed for 6 months, and the treatment against lymphoma was given synchronously. The lung nodule lesions reduced after antifungal therapy for 1 month. The lung nodules disappeared after the follow-up of 6 months after completion of final chemotherapy. The evaluation of lymphoma indicated complete remission.Conclusions:Pulmonary cryptococcosis occurs insidiously and shows no specific symptoms; its imaging manifestations are variable and routine anti-infection is ineffective. Immunochemotherapy for lymphoma patients is a high-risk factor for cryptococcal infection. tNGS and CrAg testing for BALF are effective methods of the confirmed diagnosis. The early and long-term adequate-dose antifungal treatment is the key to preventing the recurrence or progression.

BACKGROUND:In clinical practice,the anterior superior iliac spine and posterior superior iliac spine are usually located by palpation,and the tilt of the pelvis is determined by visual observation method or photogrammetry.Among them,the visual observation method can only have qualitative conclusions,and its reliability is poor.The photogrammetry is not only more convenient and fast,but also can give more accurate quantitative data,which is one of the best clinical evaluation methods.However,there are no studies on the reliability of pelvic posture assessment using photogrammetry in China. OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the pelvic posture by visual observation method and photogrammetry,and to compare the reliability level of the two methods to guide clinical application. METHODS:Forty-five healthy subjects were selected and red marks were made at the bilateral anterior superior iliac spine and posterior superior iliac spine.Pelvic posture was photographed from the front,back(coronal plane),left,and right(sagittal plane).The left and right pelvic tilt angles(α,β angles)were selected from the front and back views,which represented the angle between the bilateral anterior superior iliac spine line or the bilateral posterior superior iliac spine line and the horizontal line.The anterior and posterior pelvic tilt angles(γ,θ angles)were selected from the side view,which represented the angle between the ipsilateral anterior superior iliac spine and posterior superior iliac spine line and the horizontal plane,indicating the sagittal plane pelvic tilt.Evaluation methods included visual observation method and photogrammetry.Two evaluators independently evaluated the pelvic α,β,γ,θ angles using the visual observation method first,and then recorded the pelvic α,β,γ,θ angles using the photogrammetry.After a one-month interval,the visual observation method and photogrammetry were performed again,and the pelvic α,β,γ,θ angles were recorded.The intraclass correlation coefficients were used to analyze the data obtained from the two evaluation methods and the before-and-after measurements:0.90-0.99 as an excellent correlation,0.80-0.89 as a good correlation,0.70-0.79 as a moderate correlation,and≤0.69 as a poor correlation.The standard error of measurement and the minimal detectable change with 95%confidence intervals were calculated to evaluate the inter-rater and intra-rater reliability. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)The interrater intraclass correlation coefficients of the visual observation method and photogrammetry were as follows:anterior view:0.682 and 0.718,posterior view:0.513 and 0.867,left view:0.739 and 0.960,and right view:0.756 and 0.971.The visual observation method showed poor correlation between the anterior and posterior views and moderate correlation between the left and right views,while the photogrammetry showed moderate correlation for the anterior view,good correlation for the posterior view,and excellent correlation for the left and right views.The standard error values of measurement were as follows:anterior view:3.266 and 1.625,posterior view:4.278 and 1.763,left view:5.935 and 1.787,and right view:5.723 and 1.698.The minimal detectable change values with 95%confidence intervals were as follows:anterior view:9.053 and 4.504,posterior view:11.858 and 4.887,left view:16.451 and 4.953,and right view:15.863 and 4.707.(2)The interrater intraclass correlation coefficients of the visual observation method and photogrammetry were as follows:anterior view:0.452 and 0.723,posterior view:0.483 and 0.904,left view:0.518 and 0.955,and right view:0.657 and 0.968.The visual observation method showed poor correlation in all four directions,while the photogrammetry showed moderate correlation for the anterior view and excellent correlation for the other three directions.The standard error values of measurement were as follows:anterior view:5.651 and 1.610,posterior view:4.237 and 1.523,left view:7.322 and 1.891,and right view:6.509 and 1.781.The minimal detectable change values with 95%confidence intervals were as follows:anterior view:15.664 and 4.463,posterior view:11.744 and 4.222,left view:20.296 and 5.242,and right view:18.042 and 4.937.(3)These results confirm that the sagittal and coronal plane photogrammetries have good intrarater and interrater reliability for evaluating pelvic posture,especially with the use of the photogrammetry,which has good data stability.This method is simple,fast,efficient,accurate,low-cost,and does not cause X-ray damage,and can qualitatively and quantitatively reflect the actual situation of the patient's pelvis,making it suitable for clinical use.

Objective To investigate the status of application of the central venous access in the departments of hematology to develop targeted administrative strategies and provide evidence for management.Methods A self-de-signed questionnaire was applied and convenience sampling was adopted in 93 hematology departments from 48 hospitals in 19 provinces(autonomous regions,municipalities).Results A total of 91 valid questionnaires were col-lected,with a valid questionnaire response rate of 97.85％.Among the 91 hematology departments,91(100％),73(80.22％),and 68(74.73％)carried out PICC,central venous catheter,and totally implantable access port catheteriza-tion,respectively.In the evaluation of blood test indicators before central venous access,the items with a higher e-valuation proportion were platelet count(100％)and D-dimer concentration(87.91％),while the evaluation proportion of other items was＜85％.When PICC catheterization,97.80％of hematology departments prefer basilic vein;83.52％of hematology departments used zone insertion method;95.60％of hematology departments had a skin disinfection range of ≥20 cm;98.90％of hematology departments had catheterization under ultrasound guidance;67.03％and 96.70％of hematology departments used the intracardiac electrocardiogram method or ultrasound assisted localiza-tion,postoperative X-ray localization;12.09％and 53.85％of hematology departments carried out tunnel catheteriza-tion and blunt separation expansion techniques,respectively.In terms of maintenance of central venous access de-vices,82.42％of hematology departments used disposable specialized maintenance kits;61.54％of hematology de-partments used transparent patches to fix PICC;45.21％of hematology departments used suture to fix central venous catheters;24.18％of hematology departments used cotton swabs to disinfect infusion joints;60.44％of hematology departments did not use disposable infusion joint disinfection cap;74.73％of hematology departments used gauze compression to prevent puncture site bleeding;only 6.59％hematology departments used antibacterial dressings con-taining chlorhexidine to prevent puncture site infections.In terms of quality management of central venous access devices,94.51％and 86.81％of hematology departments regularly conducted quality inspections of central venous access,and collected,calculated and analyzed relevant data.50.55％of hematology departments conducted complica-tion risk assessments,and 10.99％of hematology departments had established information management systems for venous therapy.Conclusion The implementation rate of PICC catheterization in the hematology department was relatively high,and the insertion operation basically meets the standard requirements.The evaluation before central venous access catheterization was relatively completed,and the maintenance and management are relatively stan-dardized.However,the evaluation of blood test indicators before the placement of central venous access urgently needs to be standardized and unified.When PICC catheterization,attention should be paid to the application of new technologies,and the information management of venous therapy needs to be improved.

Purpose To explore the ultrasound features and early diagnostic clues of fetal myocardial non-compaction.Materials and Methods The clinical data and echocardiographic data of four fetuses who underwent fetal echocardiography in Henan Provincial People's Hospital from January 2015 to February 2023 and were confirmed to have myocardial non-compaction by pathological finding or postnatal examination were collected,and analyzed.Results A total of four fetuses diagnosed as myocardial non-compaction by prenatal ultrasound:two involved the left ventricle with isolated lesions,and apical myocardial non-compaction was confirmed by postnatal echocardiography;two involved the biventricles,and both of which were pathologically confirmed after induction of labor.The prenatal ultrasound of fetal myocardial involvement in four cases showed that:(1)the affected myocardium showed a bilayer structure:the outer layer was compacted myocardium,which showed thin and compacted homogeneous hypoechoic;the inner layer was loose and thickened non-compacted myocardium with enhanced echogenicity;(2)color Doppler flow imaging:the non-compacted myocardium showed sieve mesh blood flow with ventricular communication.Some cases were associated with cardiac enlargement and arrhythmia.Conclusion Prenatal echocardiography can diagnose fetal myocardial non-compaction with a characteristic echographic presentation.Localized myocardial thickening and echogenic enhancement,cardiac enlargement and arrhythmia may be important clues to identify fetal myocardial non-compaction.

Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most common chronic liver disease worldwide. Fat accumulation "sensitizes" the liver to insult and leads to nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). G protein-coupled receptor 35 (GPR35) is involved in metabolic stresses, but its role in NAFLD is unknown. We report that hepatocyte GPR35 mitigates NASH by regulating hepatic cholesterol homeostasis. Specifically, we found that GPR35 overexpression in hepatocytes protected against high-fat/cholesterol/fructose (HFCF) diet-induced steatohepatitis, whereas loss of GPR35 had the opposite effect. Administration of the GPR35 agonist kynurenic acid (Kyna) suppressed HFCF diet-induced steatohepatitis in mice. Kyna/GPR35 induced expression of StAR-related lipid transfer protein 4 (STARD4) through the ERK1/2 signaling pathway, ultimately resulting in hepatic cholesterol esterification and bile acid synthesis (BAS). The overexpression of STARD4 increased the expression of the BAS rate-limiting enzymes cytochrome P450 family 7 subfamily A member 1 (CYP7A1) and CYP8B1, promoting the conversion of cholesterol to bile acid. The protective effect induced by GPR35 overexpression in hepatocytes disappeared in hepatocyte STARD4-knockdown mice. STARD4 overexpression in hepatocytes reversed the aggravation of HFCF diet-induced steatohepatitis caused by the loss of GPR35 expression in hepatocytes in mice. Our findings indicate that the GPR35-STARD4 axis is a promising therapeutic target for NAFLD.

ObjectiveTo explore the effect of paliperidone palmitate treatment on schizophrenic patients in the community. Methods446 schizophrenic patients who used paliperidone palmitate injection were selected in Shanghai. Before and after the treatment， the disease family burden scale， the concise evaluation scale of drug treatment compliance， the VAS100 score of treatment satisfaction， the short form of quality of life measurement scale， and the screening scale of social function defects were used to evaluate the effects of paliperidone palmitate injection. The data were statistically analyzed using SPSS 26.0 software. ResultsAfter using paliperidone palmitate injection， the total score of family burden （13.94±12.17）， the score of daily family activities （3.26±2.74）， the score of family entertainment activities （2.21±2.30）， and the score of family relationship （2.79±2.76） were significantly higher than those before the treatment （14.98±12.64， 3.51±2.88， 2.48±2.38， 3.11±2.87， respectively， all with P<0.05）. The scores of the World Health Organization on quality of life brief scale （62.89±11.94） and the medication compliance scale （28.11±5.64） were better than those before treatment （60.67±12.62 and 27.37±6.96， all with P<0.05）. Compared with the prior treatment without paliperidone palmitate injection， the number of readmissions after treatment was significantly reduced （P<0.01）. ConclusionThe treatment of paliperidone palmitate injection has significant effect， which can effectively reduce the disease family burden of Schizophrenic patients， improve their quality of life， enhance their drug compliance， reduce the readmission rate of patients， ensure long-term treatment effect and promote disease recovery.
