Objective To systematically evaluate the radiation impact of radioactive sources used in online elemental analyzers in cement enterprises on the surrounding environment, and to provide a scientific basis for radiation monitoring and safety management at the application sites of this type of radioactive sources. Methods A statistical analysis was conducted on 15 cement enterprises in Guangxi Province using online elemental analyzers with ²⁵²Cf as the radioactive source. On-site investigation of radiation safety management and on-site monitoring of radiation environment were performed, followed by an evaluation based on the collected data. Results Although the gamma radiation ambient dose equivalent rate and neutron ambient dose equivalent rate increased around the sites using online elemental analyzers with ²⁵²Cf as the radioactive source, they all met the requirements of the Radiological Health Protection Requirements for Instruments with Sealed Sources (GBZ 125—2009). Conclusion Under the current usage and management conditions, the application of this type of radioactive sources has controllable radiation impact on the surrounding environment, and will not pose a threat to public health and environmental safety. However, continuous strengthening of radiation safety management measures and regular radiation monitoring work are still needed to ensure the safe use of radioactive sources, further reducing potential radiation risks and providing strong guarantees for the safe application of radioactive sources in online elemental analyzers in cement enterprises.

Objective:To identify the gene mutation types of 4 suspected β-thalassemia patients in Yunnan Province,and to analyze the genotypes and hematological phenotypes.Methods:Whole genome sequencing was performed on the samples of 4 suspected β-thalassemia patients from the Dai ethnic group in a thalassemia endemic area of Yunnan Province,whose hematological phenotypes were not consistent with the results of common thalassemia gene mutations.The mutations of β-globin gene clusters were confirmed by polymerase chain reaction(PCR)and Sanger DNA sequencing technology.Results:The 3.5 kb deletion in β-globin gene cluster(NC_000011.10:g.5224302-5227791 del3490bp)was detected in 4 patients'samples,of which 1 case was also detected with HbE mutation and 1 case with CD17 mutation.These 2 patients displayed moderate anemia phenotype,while the two patients with only the 3.5 kb deletion presented with other mild anemia phenotype.Conclusion:Heterozygous carriers with rare 3.5 kb deletion of the β-globin gene cluster may develop mild anemia,compound mutations of the 3.5 kb deletion with other mutations may led to intermediate thalasemia with moderate to sever anemia.In areas with a high incidence of thalassemia,suspected patients should undergo genetic testing to avoid missing or misdiagnosing rare mutations.

The cobalt sulphide nickel ternary material(NiCo2S4)prepared by hydrothermal method in this work was combined with multi-walled carbon nanotubes(MWCNT)for constructing an electrochemical sensor for quantitative detection of rutin.The morphology and crystal of the electrochemical materials were characterized by scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffractometer,and the electrochemical behavior of the glassy carbon electrode(GCE)modified with NiCo2S4/MWCNT composites was investigated.The experimental results showed that the electrochemical redox process of two electrons and two protons occurred on the surface of modified electrode NiCo2S4/MWCNT/GCE.Under the optimized conditions,the linear range for detection of rutin by square-wave voltammetry(SWV)using this sensor was 0.06-14.8 μmol/L and the detection limit was 14.3 nmol/L.The electrochemical sensor was sensitive,simple and low-cost,with good reproducibility and reliable stability,and could be used for detection of rutin in real samples such as compound rutin tablets and color chrysanthemi tablets,with spiked recoveries of 99.5%-102.0%.

Aim To investigate the effects of ber-bamine on behavioral changes in LPS-induced chronic neuroinflammation model mice and the related mecha-nisms.Methods By injecting lipopolysaccharide in-traperitoneally for seven days in a row,berbamine was given intraperitoneally as a treatment;the behavioral studies of mice in each group were identified;Nissen staining was used to observe the changes in the patho-logical morphology of the mouse hippocampus and the expression levels of inflammation-related proteins.These procedures established a mouse neuroinflamma-tion model.Results The number of neurons in the model group's hippocampal CA1 and CA3 regions was significantly smaller than that in the control group.In the water maze experiment,as the number of training days grew,the model group's escape latency increased and its retention time in the target quadrant dropped.The immobilization period of the model group mice in-creased during the forced swimming exercise.Serum levels of inflammatory factors such as IL-1β,IL-6,and TNF-α levels were also higher.The hippocampus tis-sue of the mice in the model group had higher levels of NLRP3,ASC,caspase-1,IL-18,ROCK1,ROCK2 ex-pression,and RHOA.When compared to the model group,the administration of berbamine was a therapy intervention.In the meantime,with the number of training days increased,the target quadrant lag time increased and the escape latency gradually decreased.Additionally,the model group's mice spent less time resting during forced swimming,and the serum inflam-matory factors TNF-α,IL-1β,and IL-6 decreased in mouse hippocampal tissues.Lastly,the expression lev-els of NLRP3,caspase-1,ASC,IL-1β,ROCK1,ROCK2,and RHOA all decreased in mouse hippocam-pal tissue.Conclusions The mechanism of action of berbamine,which improves lipopolysaccharide-induced depressive-like behaviors and modifies learning memory in mice,may include the NLRP3 and RHOA/ROCK signaling pathways.

Objective To explore the postmortem diffusion rule of Aconitum alkaloids and their metabo-lites in poisoned rabbits,and to provide a reference for identifying the antemortem poisoning or post-mortem poisoning of Aconitum alkaloids.Methods Twenty-four rabbits were sacrificed by tracheal clamps.After 1 hour,the rabbits were administered with aconitine LD50 in decocting aconite root powder by intragastric administration.Then,they were placed supine and stored at 25℃.The biological samples from 3 randomly selected rabbits were collected including heart blood,peripheral blood,urine,heart,liver,spleen,lung and kidney tissues at 0 h,4 h,8 h,12 h,24 h,48 h,72 h and 96 h after intragastric administration,respectively.Aconitum alkaloids and their metabolites in the biological samples were ana-lyzed by high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry(HPLC-MS/MS).Results At 4 h after intragastric administration,Aconitum alkaloids and their metabolites could be detected in heart blood,peripheral blood and major organs,and the contents of them changed dynamically with the preservation time.The contents of Aconitum alkaloids and their metabolites were higher in the spleen,liver and lung,especially in the spleen which was closer to the stomach.The average mass fraction of benzoylmesaconine metabolized in rabbit spleen was the highest at 48 h after intragastric administration.In contrast,the contents of Aconitum alkaloids and their metabolites in kidney were all lower.Aconi-tum alkaloids and their metabolites were not detected in urine.Conclusion Aconitum alkaloids and their metabolites have postmortem diffusion in poisoned rabbits,diffusing from high-content organs(stomach)to other major organs and tissues as well as the heart blood.The main mechanism is the dispersion along the concentration gradient,while urine is not affected by postmortem diffusion,which can be used as the basis for the identification of antemortem and postmortem Aconitum alkaloids poisoning.

Objective To investigate the effects and molecular mechanisms of inhibition of the Ras homolog gene(Rho)/Rho-associated coiled-coil forming protein kinase(ROCK)pathway on the proliferation and migration of airway smooth muscle cells involving myocardin(MYOCD).Methods Human airway smooth muscle cells were infected with the adenoviral vector Ad-ZsGreen-shRNA-hROCK1 in vitro.The cells were randomly divided into four groups:ROCK1 gene silencing control(shNC)group,shNC+arachidonic acid(AA,Rho/ROCK pathway activator)group,ROCK1 gene silencing(shROCK1)group,and shROCK1+AA group(n=3 each).Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction and Western blot were used to detect the expression levels of ROCK1 and MYOCD mRNA and protein.ELISA was employed to measure the levels of globular actin and filamentous actin,while immunofluorescent staining and scratch assays were utilized to assess cell proliferation and migration.Results Compared to the shNC+AA group,the shROCK1+AA group exhibited decreased levels of ROCK1 and MYOCD mRNA and protein expression,reduced expression levels of globular actin and filamentous actin,and diminished cell proliferation and migration capabilities(P<0.05).Conclusions Inhibition of the Rho/ROCK pathway suppresses the proliferation and migration of airway smooth muscle cells,which may be associated with the downregulation of MYOCD.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.

Objective:This study investigates the conditional combination paths of different types of patient demands in Internet hospitals,aiming to optimize service utilization.Methods:The Andersen's model research framework and fuzzy set qualitative comparative analysis(fsQCA)are used to construct a causal chain including predisposing characteristics,enabling resources and demand factors.Results:The study proposes six condition combination paths for the three service stages of pre-diagnosis,consultation and follow-up from the user's perspective.Factors such as economy,professionalism and guidance were examined comprehensively to analyze the demands of different age and disease groups.The study found that there are significant differences across the factors in the user demands of Internet hospitals at different service stages and under different condition combination paths.Conclusions and Suggestions:Internet hospitals should provide differentiated services to meet diversified user demands according to representative user groups in different paths,such as"lower age groups+pre-diagnosis","lower age groups+consultation experience"and"higher age groups+follow-up".At the same time,it is recommended to establish Internet diagnosis and treatment services covering the whole service chain,and improve the related regulatory and policy framework to enhance the utilization of Internet hospital services.
