Objective:To explore the associations of temperature, relative humidity, and their interaction effect with fall risk.Methods:Data on fall cases were collected using the national injury surveillance system from May to September, in 2006-2022 in Hubei Province. Combined with the meteorological and air pollution data, we conducted a time-stratified case-crossover design and used conditional logistic regression models and distributed lag nonlinear models to examine the exposure-response relationships between temperature, humidity, and fall risk. We further divided the low and the high temperature groups and the low and the high relative humidity groups and analyzed the excess risk ( ER) of falls attributed to dry-hot or wet-hot events. Finally, we calculated the additive interactions of temperature and humidity on fall risk. Results:A total of 55 401 fall cases were included. With the increase in temperature and relative humidity decrease, the exposure-response curves of fall showed nonlinear upward trends among all populations. Gender and age differences were found in temperature-fall and relative humidity-fall risk relationships. Compared with wet-non-hot (normal temperature and high relative humidity) events, the ER of fall in dry-hot (high temperature and low relative humidity) events was 14.80% (95% CI: 9.69%- 20.15%), and the ER of wet-hot (high temperature and high relative humidity) events was 9.59% (95% CI: 2.52%-17.13%). However, there was no statistically significant difference between dry-hot and wet-hot events in the fall, and no statistically significant difference between different genders, ages, occupations, and fall occurred place (all P>0.05). No significant synergistic additive interaction was found between temperature and relative humidity on fall risk (relative excess risk due to interaction=-0.08, 95% CI: -0.19-0.02). Conclusions:Higher temperatures and lower relative humidity were associated with increased fall risk. Both dry-hot and wet-hot events had a higher risk of fall, while high temperature and low humidity have no synergistic effect on fall risk.

This study systematically elucidates the contemporary understanding of the theory of"the lung and large intestine being interior-exteriorly related"within both traditional Chinese and Western medical theoretical frameworks,while providing an in-depth summary of national medical master Han Mingxiang's clinical experience in diagnosing and treating phlegm-heat obstructing lung syndrome in acute exacerbation chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(AECOPD).Theoretically,this doctrine originates from the Huangdi Neijing and has been developed into a comprehensive system by subsequent medical practitioners.Modern medical research from embryological,microbiological,and other perspectives has confirmed the close physiological and pathological relationship between the lung and intestine,particularly evidenced by the proposed"gut-lung axis"theory.Based on over 6 decades of clinical practice,professor Han identified the core pathogenesis of AECOPD as involving"phlegm,blood stasis,toxins,and deficiency,"with phlegm-heat obstructing lung syndrome being the most prevalent manifestation.The pathological characteristics include impaired lung qi descent,internal accumulation of phlegm-heat,and intestinal obstruction.The therapeutic approach emphasizes"clearing heat and resolving phlegm,relieving cough and asthma"as the primary treatment principle,focusing on"clearing lung heat,eliminating phlegm pathogens,and descending rebellious qi",while adhering to the concept of"simultaneous treatment of lung and intestine."In terms of herbal prescription,professor Han skillfully employs modified Xuanbai Chengqi decoction,which integrates lung-ventilating,phlegm-resolving,and purgative effects.Importantly,he emphasizes the precise timing and dosage of purgative herbs,particularly for patients with deficiency patterns,advocating discontinuation or dose reduction once intestinal patency is achieved to avoid overtreatment.For remission phase management,professor Han advocates the"reinforcing earth to generate metal"approach using modified Bufei decoction combined with Yigong powder,which strengthens spleen qi to nourish lung function.This therapeutic strategy embodies the fundamental treatment principle of"treating the acute manifestations first,then addressing the root cause."This research not only deepens the understanding of classical Chinese medical theories but also provides more scientifically grounded intervention strategies for the clinical prevention and treatment of lung distension.The findings offer valuable insights into integrative approaches for AECOPD management,combining traditional wisdom with contemporary medical understanding.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of vedolizumab (VDZ) monoclonal antibody in maintenance therapy for ulcerative colitis (UC) .Methods:A retrospective case control study was conducted, including 84 patients with active UC undergoing VDZ therapy for an average of (22±8) weeks in the Department of Gastroenterology, the Second Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University School of Medicine from December 2020 to September 2023. These patients achieved a response or remission by (22±8) weeks and continued follow-up until (54±8) weeks. They were divided into effective and ineffective groups based on whether they achieved clinical remission by (54±8) weeks after using VDZ; those who required optimized treatment with shortened injection intervals were included in the ineffective group. Baseline clinical data, medication history and endoscopic imaging data were recorded. The clinically modified Mayo score, Mayo endoscopic score, and other assessments were used to evaluate UC disease activity. Adverse reactions related to treatment were also recorded to assess the efficacy of VDZ treatment up to (54±8) weeks was assessed and key factors affecting clinical remission of the disease were analyzed.Results:Among the 84 UC patients with followed up to (54±8) weeks, 47 cases (55.95%) achieved clinical remission and were classified as the effective group, while 37 cases (44.05%) did not achieve clinical remission and were classified as the ineffective group. The endoscopic remission rate in the effective group was 68.09% (32/47), and the mucosal healing rate was 36.17% (17/47). Joint pain occurred in 2.38% of patients, hepatic dysfunction in 3.57%, and one patient died from leukemia following a COVID-19 infection during the maintenance therapy period.Conclusion:VDZ has a certain efficacy in the continuous treatment of UC patients and in maintaining clinical and endoscopic remission, with generally high overall safety and a low incidence of adverse reactions.

Objective To investigate the clinical value of dualGsource CT coronary angiography in evaluation of left ventricular function.Methods A total of 5 5 patients with clinically suspected coronary heart disease in our hospital were enrolled.All patients underwent dualGsource CT coronary angiography and ultrasonic cardiogram.The measured values and correlation of the indicators of left ventricular function in dualGsource CT coronary angiography and ultrasonic cardiogram were analyzed.Results Pearson correlation analysis showed that dualGsource CT coronary angiography and ultrasonic cardiogram were highly correlated in left ventricular function measurements (r＝ 0.607－0.840,P＜0.05);The paired sample t test showed that there were no significant differences in the ej ection fraction (EF) and endGdiastolic volume (EDV)between two methods.Conclusion DualGsource CT coronary angiography is reliable in the quantitative evaluation of left ventricular function.The "oneGstop"acquiring of coronary stenosis degree and cardiac function index can provide more diagnostic information to clinic.
