Objective To evaluate the short-term effects of comprehensive health management interventions for stroke high-risk population screening on the prevention and treatment of ischemic stroke, and to provide reference and basis for improving and exploring health management and prevention strategies for stroke high-risk population. Methods From 2018 to 2022, 13 community health service centers in Jiading District, Shanghai were selected in the present study. Based on information push platform, stroke risk assessment and health intervention follow-up were conducted for community residents through convenience sampling. The residents were divided into a full course intervention group (intervention group) and a routine intervention group (control group) according to different health intervention measures and forms. The incidence of ischemic stroke in the two groups of survey subjects was tracked within 36 months. Results A total of 52144 subjects were included in the study. The total number of patients in the full course intervention group was 14227, with an incidence density of 577.32/100 000 (556.49/100 000-598.12/100 000), which was lower than that of the conventional intervention group (37 917), with an incidence density of 1 485.47/100 000 (1 464.99/100 000-1 505.94/100 000) (χ2=2490.212, P<0.001). The relative risk of the full course intervention group was 0.39, and the relative risk of stroke risk factors in the full course intervention group from low to high was 0.33, 0.43, 0.45, and 0.49, respectively. The incidence density of males in the full course intervention group was 660.76 (627.46/100 000 - 694.05/100 000), with a relative risk of 0.43, and the incidence density of female patients was 509.71/100 000 (483.37/100 000 - 536.05/100 000), with a relative risk of 0.35. The overall incidence density of the population under 62 years old gourp, 62-75 years old group and over 75 years old group was 197.45/100 000 (173.09/100 000 -221.80/100 000), 608.36/100 000 (580.19/100 000-636.54/100 000), and 1 025.06/100 000 (958.51/100 000-1 091.61/100 000), with relative risks of 0.51, 0.44, and 0.38, respectively. Conclusion Comprehensive health management measures can effectively reduce the short-term risk of ischemic stroke, and should be further promoted and improved to enhance the effectiveness of stroke prevention and control.

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.

Acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF) is a high-mortality syndrome that develops during the acute deterioration of chronic liver disease and is characterized by multiple organ dysfunction driven by systemic inflammation. Due to gut microbiota dysbiosis, endotoxin translocation, and amplified inflammatory responses, alcohol-related liver disease-associated ACLF (ALD-ACLF) is more pronounced and is often accompanied by a high risk of secondary infection and extrahepatic organ involvement, thereby exhibiting distinct etiological and clinical characteristics. This article systematically reviews the advances in the definitional boundaries, pathophysiological mechanisms, dynamic early warning, and prognostic assessment of ALD-ACLF, elaborates on risk stratification and key issues in clinical management, and discusses the potential impact of the dual-hit phenotype of metabolic dysfunction and alcohol-related liver disease on risk stratification in ALD-ACLF. This article also highlights the need to further strengthen etiology-oriented early identification, dynamic stratification, control of predisposing factors, and earlier intervention, in order to provide a reference for the precise assessment and individualized intervention of these patients.

Microbial-derived metabolites are important mediators of host-microbial interactions. In recent years, the role of intestinal microbial metabolites in colorectal cancer has attracted considerable attention. These metabolites, which can be derived from bacterial metabolism of dietary substrates, modification of host molecules such as bile acids, or directly from bacteria, strongly influence the progression of colitis-associated cancer (CAC) by regulating inflammation and immune response. Here, we review how microbiome metabolites short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), secondary bile acids, polyamines, microbial tryptophan metabolites, and polyphenols are involved in the tumorigenesis and development of CAC through inflammation and immunity. Given the heated debate on the metabolites of microbiota in maintaining gut homeostasis, serving as tumor molecular markers, and affecting the efficacy of immune checkpoint inhibitors in recent years, strategies for the prevention and treatment of CAC by targeting intestinal microbial metabolites are also discussed in this review.

BACKGROUND:
Several studies have demonstrated the occurrence of secondary tumors as a rare but significant complication of chimeric antigen receptor T (CAR-T) cell therapy, underscoring the need for a detailed investigation. Given the limited variety of secondary tumor types reported to date, a comprehensive characterization of the various secondary tumors arising after CAR-T therapy is essential to understand the associated risks and to define the role of the immune microenvironment in malignant transformation. This study aims to characterize the immune microenvironment of a newly identified secondary tumor post-CAR-T therapy, to clarify its pathogenesis and potential therapeutic targets.
METHODS:
In this study, the bone marrow (BM) samples were collected by aspiration from the primary and secondary tumors before and after CD19 CAR-T treatment. The CD45 + BM cells were enriched with human CD45 microbeads. The CD45 + cells were then sent for 10× genomics single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) to identify cell populations. The Cell Ranger pipeline and CellChat were used for detailed analysis.
RESULTS:
In this study, a rare type of secondary chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML) were reported in a patient with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) who had previously received CD19 CAR-T therapy. The scRNA-seq analysis revealed increased inflammatory cytokines, chemokines, and an immunosuppressive state of monocytes/macrophages, which may impair cytotoxic activity in both T and natural killer (NK) cells in secondary CMML before treatment. In contrast, their cytotoxicity was restored in secondary CMML after treatment.
CONCLUSIONS
This finding delineates a previously unrecognized type of secondary tumor, CMML, after CAR-T therapy and provide a framework for defining the immune microenvironment of secondary tumor occurrence after CAR-T therapy. In addition, the results provide a rationale for targeting macrophages to improve treatment strategies for CMML treatment.

Objective:To compare the types and contents of trace elements in compound trace element preparations used in parenteral nutrition in Beijing against the doses recommended by the guidelines, so as to facilitate optimal choice of preparations for different populations in clinical practice.Methods:The available compound trace element preparations were determined according to the drug list from the Medical Insurance Recruitment and Procurement System of Beijing and the recommended doses of trace elements in the guidelines released by Chinese domestic and foreign nutrition societies were collected and compared.Results:The compound trace element preparations used in Beijing comprised 4 varieties and 6 specifications, with the daily cost ranging from 11.32 to 471 Chinese Yuan. There were 3 varieties of trace element preparations for adults, including multi-trace elements injection (Ⅱ), multi-trace elements injection (Ⅲ), and multi-trace elements injection. Among those, multi-trace elements injection (Ⅲ) met the guideline recommendations best and the price was moderate. For pediatric populations, multi-trace elements injections (Ⅰ) satisfied better the trace element requirements for preterm infants and infants from term to 3 months, while multi-trace elements injections (Ⅲ) outperformed in meeting the trace element requirements for 3-to-12-month infants and children. However, there were still some differences in the trace element contents between the two preparations and the guideline recommendations.Conclusion:The currently available varieties and specifications of trace element preparations basically meet the recommendations of evidence-based guidelines, but there is still the need to improve the instructions for and evidence on the pediatric application of certain preparations.

Objective:An inceasing number of commercial multi-chambered bag products for parenteral nutrition (PN) have been launched in China, with some being included in the National Medical Insurance Catalogue (NMIC). In this study, the commercially available triple-chambered bag (3CB) products for PN in China were comprehensively analyzed in terms of basic characteristics, applicable population, and costs to guide the rational use of these products in clinical settings.Methods:The marketing information of 3CB products was collected. The inclusion of these products in NMIC and the Catalogue of Selected Drugs for National Centralized Procurement was investigated, along with the collection of manufacturer's instructions and pricing information in Beijing. Two researchers extracted and calculated the information of 3CB products, including energy density, types and levels of each component, glycolipid ratio, osmotic pressure, and price. The applicable population and economy of these products were also compared.Results:As of April 2024, 11 3CB products, including 23 specifications, had been approved in China. Eight products were included by NMIC and 2 by the Catalogue of Selected Drugs for National Centralized Procurement. The energy density, protein content, and lipid content dramatically differed among 3CB products (energy density, 254.0–493.7 kJ/100 ml; protein, 2.2–5.6 g/100ml; lipid, 2–4 g/100 ml; and glycolipid ratio, 62∶38–40∶60). Five products could only be infused via the central veins. The sources of fat emulsions included soybean oil-based long-chain fat-milk, medium-long-chain fat-milk, olive oil-based fat-milk, and fish oil-based fat-milk. All the 3CB products contained 8 essential amino acids and some non-essential amino acids, with or without tyrosine, taurine, aspartic acid, and glutamic acid. The average daily total cost of 3CB PN was 74.78–585.82 yuan. Since Some 3CB products had been listed in NMIC, they were affordable for urban patients covered by Urban Employee Basic Medical Insurance but might be economically unacceptable for rural residents who are insured by the Basic Medical Insurance for Urban and Rural Residents and uninsured patients. Conclusions:A variety of 3CB products have been commercially available in China and can meet the individual PN needs of most patients. Although some products have been listed by NMIC, the economic burden can be heavy for certain patient populations.
