OBJECTIVE Based on comment texts from the Weibo platform, this study adopts the text mining method to systematically analyze the public’s emotional attitudes and core concerns of “medical insurance reimbursement”, and explore the public’s real experiences and feedback in the implementation of the current system. METHODS With “medical insurance reimbursement” as the keyword, Python web crawler technology was used to collect Weibo comment texts from December 2023 to April 2025. Word frequency analysis, sentiment analysis, semantic network analysis and Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA) topic models were adopted to mine the in-depth features of comment texts and investigate the public’s concerns and emotional attitudes toward “medical insurance reimbursement”. RESULTS A total of 3 645 valid comment texts were obtained. The overall emotional of the public toward “medical insurance reimbursement” was weakly positive: 66.4% of the comments contained positive emotions, and 32.4% contained negative emotions. Semantic network analysis indicated that positive public emotions mainly centered on the achievements of medical insurance reform and the improvement of security level, while negative emotions mainly focused on reimbursement rules, economic burden and the implementation of medical insurance policies. The LDA model identified eight core themes, mainly including access of new drugs to medical insurance catalogs, medical insurance support for traditional Chinese medicine and biomedicine, disputes over medical insurance coverage of specific medical items, cross-regional medical treatment and medical insurance settlement, medical insurance reimbursement and medical burden, as well as the approval of innovative drugs and medical insurance payment. CONCLUSIONS The public generally holds a positive attitude toward “medical insurance reimbursement”, yet still has many expectations in terms of policy implementation. On the premise of guaranteeing the sustainability of medical insurance funds, it is suggested to further improve the transparency and fairness of the reimbursement process, and promote the scientific, standardized and efficient development of the medical insurance system. Meanwhile, attention should be paid to public opinion feedback on social media, and the policy communication mechanism should be strengthened, so as to enhance the public’s sense of gain and trust in the medical insurance system.

Objective To investigate the effect of gene silencing of Y-box binding protein-1(YB-1) by RNA interference on the proliferation and migration in prostate cancer cells lines PC-3 cells .Methods YB-1 siRNAs(pGenesil-1-YB-1-1 and pGenesil-1-YB-1-2) were synthesized and transfected into cloned into the the PC-3 cells by liposome .The expressions of YB-1 were measure by RT-PCR and Western blotting .The proliferation and migration were respectively detected by MTT and Transwell method . Results ThemRNA and protein expressions of YB-1 were significantly decreased by pGenesil-1-YB-1-1 and pGenesil-1-YB-1-2 (P<0 .05) ,compared with the control group ,the inhibition ratio of mRNA expression was 36 .23% and 39 .42% respectively and the inhibition ratio of protein expression was 41 .56% and 55 .33% respectively .The proliferation and migration were significantly decreased by pGenesil-1-YB-1-1 and pGenesil-1-YB-1-2(P<0 .05) .Conclusion YB-1 gene silencing by RNA interference inhibits the proliferation and migration in prostate cancer cells lines PC-3 cells .

Objective To investigate the effect of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) on the cholesterol efflux and ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1) expression in foam cells .Methods RAW 264 .7 macrophages were incubated with oxidized low density lipoprotein to induce foam cells .Foam cells were incubated with H2S donor sodium hydrosulfide .Cholesterol efflux from macropha-ges was tested by labed cholesterol .The cellular levels of free cholesterol (FC) ,cholesterol ester (CE) and total cholesterol (TC) were measured by high performance liquid chromatography assays .The mRNA and protein expressions of ABCA1 were detected by Real-time PCR and Western blot .Results Compared with the foam cells ,the rates of cholesterol efflux were significantly in-creased ,the levels of TC ,FC ,CE and CE/TC ratio were significantly decreased(P<0 .05) and expression of ABCA1 was signifi-cantly increased by treatment with H2S in dose-and time-dependent manner(P<0 .05) .Conclusion H2S up-regulates of expres-sion ABCA1 and promotes cholesterol efflux in RAW 264 .7 macrophage-derived foam cells .
