Objective To gain insights into the biological characteristics of different populations of Culex tritaeniorhynchus within and around the Yellow Sea wetland from the perspective of the occurrence of resistance, we investigated the levels of resistance to deltamethrin and kdr gene mutation in the wetland and its peripheral areas. Methods Specimens were collected from Cx. tritaeniorhynchus populations at two monitoring sites in the Rare Bird National Nature Reserve and Tiaozi Ni Wetland Scenic Area, and also from two populations in Yancheng City and the Liuhe District of Nanjing, and the resistance of these mosquitoes to deltamethrin was determined using the CDC biotest bottle method. For each concentration of deltamethrin assessed, a random subset of exposed specimens was selected for amplification of the kdr gene fragment, followed by Sanger sequencing to identify and analyze resistance-associated mutations. Results The LC50 levels of deltamethrin among mosquitoes from the four populations in Luhe, Yancheng, the Rare Bird National Nature Reserve and the Tiaozi Ni Wetland Scenic Area were 2.048 5, 7.798 2, 3.473 3, and 17.695 5 mg/mL, respectively, with corresponding concentrations of deltamethrin ranging from 0.005 to 5.000,0.050 to 50.000,0.050 to 25.000 and 0.050 to 50.000 mg/mL, respectively. Furthermore, the ranges of the KT50 values were 11.76-107.43, 67.05-216.30,29.77-107.43 and 28.40-329.51 min; the 1-h knockdown rates were 34.58%-99.15%, 9.52%-43.80%, 55.09%-73.01%, and 10.09%-68.07%; and the 24-h mortality rates were 12.15%-67.52%,9.52%-79.56%,13.17%-82.21%, and 11.01%-78.99%, respectively. With respect to kdr gene mutation, we assayed a total of 63,70,59, and 57 mosquitoes for the four populations, for which we detected L1014F mutation frequencies of 14.29%, 35.00%, 20.34%, and 31.58%, respectively, with a majority of these mutations being heterozygous for resistance. In addition, five adult mosquitoes were identified has having synonymous mutations at site 1011[i. e. , AAT(asparagine)mutation to AAC(asparagine)]. Conclusions Our findings revealed the clear resistance of Cx. tritaeniorhynchus to deltamethrin in the Yancheng region of the Yellow Sea wetland, and the resistance phenotype and kdr frequency of Cx. tritaeniorhynchus in the wetland environment were comparable to those of Cx. tritaeniorhynchus in the wetland environment, thereby indicating that the resistance of different populations of Cx. tritaeniorhynchus was homogeneous under the pressure of different insecticide selection within and around the wetland. However, the underlying mechanisms need to be further studied.

The essential public health services is an important component of China's health risk governance system.It possesses both institutional and emotional attributes and addresses potential risk factors in health risk governance by forming a rational pathway and an emotional pathway:essential public health services guide-trust in government enhancement-improve health risk governance capacity.The rational pathway strengthens calculative trust through institutional reinforcement mechanisms,fostering the public's cognitive trust in government departments.The emotional pathway follows the principle of satisfaction,strengthening non-calculative trust through emotional communication and cultivating the public's emotional trust in government departments.By reinforcing both cognitive and emotional trust among the public,essential public health services improved the level of health information reserves and the guidance of medical service order,thereby improving health risk governance capacity.

The medulla oblongata,situated at the caudal portion of the brainstem,serves as a critical regulatory center responsible for maintaining fundamental vital functions including respiratory and cardiovascular homeostasis.As a pivotal hub within the autonomic nervous system,it orchestrates the coordinated control of afferent and efferent neural pathways.Dysfunction of this region may precipitate life-threatening cardiorespiratory arrest,associated with substantial mortality rates.This case report presents a patient who developed acute extensive anterior myocardial infarction during treatment with dual antiplatelet therapy and moderate-intensity statins following acute medullary infarction.It is hypothesized that the pathogenesis may involve the acceleration of plaque erosion by the stroke-heart syndrome.This clinical case provides valuable insights into the complex neurocardiac interplay,particularly highlighting the imperative for enhanced recognition of brain-heart axis interactions in cerebrovascular pathology.

Objective To evaluate the effect of remimazolam on the incidence of postoperative delirium(POD)in elderly lung cancer patients undergoing thoracoscopic surgery.Methods A total of 114 elderly patients who underwent unilateral thoracoscopic lung surgery at the Affiliated Hospital of Xuzhou Medical University from October 2024 to April 2025 were recruited in this trial.Patients were randomly assigned to remimazolam group(group R)and propofol group(group P).Anesthesia induction and maintenance were performed with remimazolam and propofol,respectively.In R group,0.5 mg of flumazenil was intravenously injected at the end of the surgery for specific antagonism.The incidence of delirium and Quality of Recovery-15(QoR-15)scores on the first and third postoperative days were compared between the two groups.Intraoperative hemodynamic parameters,total opi-oid dosage,fluid balance,tracheal tube extubation time after surgery,and the incidence of adverse reactions were recorded.Results There were no statistically significant differences between the groups in the incidence of POD or in QoR-15 scores(P>0.05).Compared with group P,patients in group R had a shorter extubation time(P<0.05),more stable hemodynamics,lower incidences of intra-operative hypotension and bradycardia,and reduced requirement for vasoactive drugs(P<0.05).The consumption of rescue analgesics in the post-anesthesia care unit(PACU)was also lower in group R(P<0.05).No significant differences were observed between the groups in the amounts of sufentanil and remifentanil administered,fluid balance,bispectral index(BIS)values,or the inci-dence of nausea and vomiting(P>0.05).Conclusion In elderly patients undergoing elective thoracoscopic sur-gery,remimazolam-based induction and maintenance of anesthesia did not significantly alter the incidence of POD or compromise postoperative recovery quality compared with propofol.However,the remimazolam group required fewer vasoactive agents and exhibited a shorter tracheal extubation time.

Objective:To explore the correlation between skeletal muscle mass and strength with metabolic syndrome in children.Methods:This cross-sectional study was conducted involving 383 children aged 10 to 15 years who visited the Department of Child Health Care, Children′s Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from June 2021 to December 2022. Their height, weight, waist circumference, body composition, grip strength and blood pressure were measured. Relative skeletal muscle mass, muscle-to-fat ratio, and grip strength-to-body weight index were calculated. The levels of fasting blood glucose, lipids and insulin were tested. Homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) was calculated. Children were divided into the metabolic syndrome group and the non-metabolic syndrome group. Independent t test or Mann-Whitney U test etc. was used to compare the difference between groups. Spearman correlation analysis and binary Logistic regression were used to investigate the correlation between skeletal muscle mass and strength and metabolic syndrome. The area under the curve (AUC) of receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to compare the accuracy of the index of skeletal muscle in predicting metabolic syndrome in children. Results:Among the 383 children, 282 (73.6%) were male, at the age of 11.4 (10.6, 12.5) years. There were 216 children (56.4%) diagnosed with obesity and 90 children (23.5%) diagnosed with metabolic syndrome. Relative skeletal muscle mass, muscle-to-fat ratio, and grip strength-to-body weight index of the metabolic syndrome group were all lower than those in the non-metabolic syndrome group (all P<0.001). After adjusting for sex and age, relative skeletal muscle mass, muscle-to-fat ratio, and grip strength-to-body weight index were all negatively correlated with body mass index ( r=-0.84, -0.38, -0.63), waist circumference ( r=-0.76, -0.36, -0.70), systolic blood pressure ( r=-0.42, -0.21, -0.38), diastolic blood pressure ( r=-0.33, -0.18, -0.24), triglycerides ( r=-0.29, -0.13, -0.23), fasting insulin ( r=-0.28, -0.20, -0.29), and HOMA-IR ( r=-0.26, -0.18, -0.26) (all P<0.05), and positively correlated with high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ( r=0.38, 0.13, 0.31, all P<0.01). After adjusting for sex and age, high relative skeletal muscle mass, high muscle-to-fat ratio, and high grip strength-to-body weight index all decreased the risks of metabolic syndrome ( OR=0.80, 0.55, 0.90), obesity ( OR=0.53, 0.64, 0.82), hypertension ( OR=0.86, 0.58, 0.92), low high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ( OR=0.83, 0.62, 0.92), hypertriglyceridemia ( OR=0.88, 0.78, 0.96). After adjusting for sex and age, high relative skeletal muscle mass and high grip strength-to-body weight index all decreased the risks of hyperglycemia ( OR=0.93 and 0.95, all P<0.05). ROC curve analysis showed that the relative skeletal muscle mass, muscle-to-fat ratio, and grip strength-to-body weight index all had good predictive accuracy of metabolic syndrome in children (AUC=0.79, 0.71, 0.76), with optimal cutoff values of 40%, 1.2, and 35%, respectively. Conclusions:High relative skeletal muscle mass, high muscle-to-fat ratio, and high grip strength-to-body weight index are all protective factors for metabolic syndrome in children. Regular measurement of skeletal muscle mass and grip strength can aid in the early identification and prevention of obesity and metabolic syndrome during childhood .

AIM To investigate the in vivo pharmacokinetics of chlorogenic acid,isoquercetin,ferulic acid,isorhamnetin and shionone in Asteris Radix et Rhizoma in rats.METHODS Twelve rats were randomly assigned into 2 groups and given intragastric administration of conventional dose(0.63 g/kg)and large dose(3.3 g/kg)of Asteris Radix et Rhizoma extracts,respectively,after which blood collection was made at 0.083,0.167,0.33,0.5,0.75,1,1.5,2,4,6,8,12,24 h,UPLC-MS/MS was adopted in the plasma concentration determination of various effective constituents,and main pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated.RESULTS Various effective constituents in the large dose group demonstrated prolonged t1/2,MRT0-∞ as compared with those in the conventional dose group(P＜0.05).After dose correction,Cmax of chlorogenic acid,isoquercetin,shionone in the large dose group displayed no obvious changes(P＞0.05),while Cmax of ferulic acid,isorhamnetin,and AUC0-t,AUC0-∞ of various effective constituents were higher than those in the conventional dose group(P＜0.05).CONCLUSION Various effective constituents in the high dose of Asteris Radix et Rhizoma can maintain high-concentration and long-time effects on rat bladder tissue.

Objective:To investigate the impact of fibroblast growth factor(FGF)on recurrence following segmen-tal mastectomy in patients with plasma cell mastitis.Methods:A total of 162 female patients diagnosed with plasma cell mastitis(PCM)were selected from our hospital from October 2021 to May 2023.All patients underwent segmental mastectomy.They were divided into recurrence group(n=28)and non-recurrence group(n=134)according to the follow-up survey on recurrence.Conduct a univariate analysis on the factors influencing recurrence in patients with PCM who undergo segmental mastectomy.After correcting for confounding factors,conduct a multiple linear regression analysis.Using a multivariate logistic regression model to explore the independent risk factors for recurrence in patients undergo-ing segmental mastectomy for PCM.Utilizing logistic regression analysis to explore the independent,multiplicative,or additive interaction between FGF and angiogenic factor in the management of recurrence in PCM patients undergoing segmental mastectomy.The Local Weighted Regression Scatter Method(LOWESS)is used to analyze the two-dimensional curve relationship of continuous variables.Evaluate the predictive efficacy of FGF for PCM recurrence fol-lowing segmental mastectomy using Receiver Operating Characteristic(ROC)curves.Results:The results of univariate analysis showed that the body mass index(BMI),estradiol,prolactin levels,nipple depression,and sinus phase propor-tion of patients in the recurrent group were significantly higher than those in the non recurrent group,and the differ-ences were statistically significant(P＜0.05).Before surgery and 1 and 3 months after surgery,the levels of FGF,vascu-lar endothelial growth factor(VEGF),endostatin(ES),and VEGF/ES in the recurrent group were higher than those in the non recurrent group,with statistically significant differences between the groups(P＜0.05).The intra group comparison results showed that compared with before surgery,all indicators in both groups of patients were significantly reduced at 1 month after surgery(P＜0.05),while in the recurrent group,all indicators were significantly increased at 3 months after surgery(P＜0.001).Logistic regression analysis showed that patients with elevated FGF had a higher risk of recurrence in PCM(P＜0.05).LOWESS analysis found that there is a certain non-linear relationship between PCM recurrence rate and FGF.FGF has good predictive performance for PCM recurrence.After further adjusting for various confounding fac-tors such as BMI,it was found that the angiogenic factor is related to FGF.The interaction results show that there is an additive or multiplicative interaction between FGF and VEGF/ES.Conclusion:FGF elevation increases the risk of re-currence after segmental mastectomy for PCM.FGF and VEGF/ES exhibit additive or multiplicative interactions.FGF has good predictive performance for PCM recurrence.

This study was aimed at determining the genetic characteristics of Yersinia pestis in Subei County through differ-ential region(DFR),clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats(CRISPR),and variable number tandem repeat(VNTR)analyses,to guide the tracing of plague outbreaks.The DNA of 89 Yersinia pestis strains isolated from various ani-mal in foci of Subei County from 1973 to 2017 was extracted.Primers for genotyping by DFR,CRISPR,and MLVA were used in PCR,and agarose electrophoresis was used to determine whether the amplified products were present.Genotypes were deter-mined through comparison against the DFR database of Yersinia pestis in China.The PCR products were sequenced and com-pared against the online CRISPR database for Yersinia pestis to determine the genotype.The number of VNTR repeats in each strain was calculated through capillary electrophoresis,and the minimum spanning tree was constructed with BioNumerics 7.6 according to the numbers of VNTR repeats from 89 Yersinia pestis strains in Subei County and 11 strains from a Marmota hi-malayana focus in Qinghai Province.The Yersinia pestis strains in Subei County were divided into six main genotypes by DFR:8,7,lb,5,32,and 44.The Yersinia pestis strains were divided into three gene clusters and three genotypes by CRISPR.Ca35'was the main gene cluster in Subei County;the genotype was 26';and the distribution was primarily in Dangchengwan Town,Yuerhong Township,and Shibaocheng Township.Ca7 and CaΔ5'comprised secondary gene clusters,with genotypes 22 and 24,and were distributed in Dangchengwan Town,Yuerhong Township,and Shibaocheng Township.The Yersinia pes-tis strains in Subei County were divided primarily into three clusters:the Dangchengwan Machang cluster,Yuerhong Township cluster and Dangchengwan Town cluster.Therefore,the Yersinia pestis strains in Subei County,divided into major and minor genotypes according to DFR,CRISPR and MLVA,showed different regional distribution characteristics,highly diverse geno-types,and complex population characteristics.These aspects are particularly important in tracing the sources of plague out-breaks.

Objective To explore the effects of triptolide(TPL)on the proliferation,migration and invasion of gastric cancer cells and its mechanism.Methods Human gastric cancer cell line MKN45 was cultured in vitro and treated with different concentrations of TPL for 48 hours.The cell proliferation inhibition rate was detected by CCK-8 method and the optimal concentration was selected for subsequent experiments.qRT-PCR was used to detect the expression of miR-29b and KDM2A mRNA in cells treated with different concentrations of TPL.MKN45 cells at logarithmic growth phase were randomly divided into the control group(without any treatment),the TPL group(treated with 200 μg/mL TPL),the inhibitor-NC+TPL group(transfected with inhibitor-NC and then treated with 200 μg/mL TPL),and the miR-29b inhibitor+TPL group(transfected with miR-29b inhibitor and then treated with 200 μg/mL TPL).qRT-PCR was used to detect the expression of miR-29b and KDM2A mRNA in each group of cells,and Western blot was used to detect the expression of KDM2A protein.The clone formation ability of each group of cells was detected by plate clone formation assay,and the migration and invasion abilities of each group of cells were detected by Transwell assay.Results TPL at concentrations of 25 μg/mL,50 μg/mL,100 μg/mL,and 200 μg/mL could significantly inhibit the proliferation of MKN45 cells(P<0.05),up-regulate the expression of miR-29b in cells(P<0.05),and down-regulate the expression of KDM2A mRNA(P<0.05).The effect was most obvious at the concentration of 200 μg/mL,so 200 μg/mL TPL was selected for the subsequent experiments.Compared with the control group,the expression of miR-29b in the TPL group increased(P<0.05),the expression of KDM2A mRNA and protein decreased(P<0.05),and the numbers of clone formation,migration and invasion cells reduced(P<0.05).Compared with the inhibitor-NC+TPL group,the expression of miR-29b in the miR-29b inhibitor+TPL group decreased(P<0.05),the expression of KDM2A mRNA and protein increased(P<0.05),and the numbers of clone formation,migration and invasion cells increased(P<0.05).Conclusion TPL can inhibit the proliferation,migration and invasion of gastric cancer cells,and its mechanism is related to the regulation of the miR-29b/KDM2A signaling pathway.
