The new synergistic education model integrating the “five arts” medical talent cultivation philosophy and the red doctor spirit could form a virtuous cycle of “spiritual guidance-technological breakthrough-spiritual reshaping” in the field of military medical education. Addressing the existing challenges in the process of military medical cadets’ training， such as mission awareness， humanistic care， battlefield rescue， and emergency response， this study proposed integrating the red doctor spirit， characterized by political steadfastness， healing the wounded and rescuing the dying， selfless devotion， relentless pursuit of excellence， and seeking truth and innovation， into the training system under the guidance of the “five arts” philosophy， including establishing a foundation through Daoist arts， forging the soul with benevolence， empowering through academia， tempering through technology， and nurturing the mind through artistry. A cultivation model was constructed featuring “moral education as the priority and cultivating through soul-forging； military spirit as the root and medical professionalism as the foundation and training for warfare； mastery in medicine for battlefield success and cultivating talent through rigorous scholarship.” Furthermore， through pathways including the optimization and implementation of the curriculum system， the enhancement and innovation of practical teaching， the development and training of the faculty team， and the improvement and innovation of the evaluation system， this model assisted in achieve the goal of cultivating compound talents with “the red medicine essence plus the five arts foundation.” These talents also built their foundation on the “five arts” philosophy， forge their spirit with the red doctor spirit， and was tempered with battlefield adaptability.

Objective:To study the epidemiological characteristics and clinical diagnosis of human brucellosis in Qujing City, Yunnan Province.Methods:Through the Infectious Disease Reporting Information Management System of the China Disease Prevention and Control Information System, the basic information and clinical diagnostic data of brucellosis cases reported in Qujing City from January 2008 to December 2023 were retrospectively collected. Descriptive epidemiological methods were used to analyze the epidemic profile, three distribution characteristics (time, population, region), and diagnosis of brucellosis.Results:A total of 1 417 brucellosis cases were reported in Qujing City from 2008 to 2023, with no death. The annual average incidence of brucellosis was 1.49/100 000, with no cases reported in 2009 and 2010, and the highest incidence in 2023 (7.82/100 000). The incidence of brucellosis showed an increasing trend year by year (χ 2trend = 1 874.58, P < 0.001). The number of cases from June to November accounted for 61.54% (872/1 417). The majority of brucellosis cases were in the age group of 36 - 65 years old, accounting for 67.82% (961/1 417). Among them, there were 954 males and 463 females, with a gender ratio of 2.06 ∶ 1.00. Farmers were the main occupation, accounting for 84.33% (1 195/1 417). The cases were mainly distributed in Luliang County (621 cases), Xuanwei City (282 cases) and Shizong County (137 cases), accounting for 73.39% (1 040/1 417). The median interval between onset and diagnosis was 13 days, and the cases with intervals ≤7 d, 8 - 30 d, and ≥31 d accounted for 32.11% (455/1 417), 40.16% (569/1 417), and 27.73% (393/1 417), respectively. Totally 63.94% (906/1 417) of the cases were confirmed in medical institutions in Qujing City. Conclusions:The incidence of brucellosis in Qujing City is increasing year by year, with men, middle-aged and elderly people and farmers as the main population, summer and autumn as the peak period, and Luliang County, Xuanwei City and Shizong County as the high incidence areas. Most cases have an interval of less than 30 days between onset and diagnosis, and can be diagnosed within the jurisdiction.

Objective:To assess the effect of using different thicknesses of reconstruction layer and different thicknesses of region of interest (ROI) on the results of vertebral bone mineral density (BMD) values that were measured by quantitative computed tomography (QCT). Methods:A total of 100 patients who underwent QCT screening for opportunistic osteoporosis between May and September 2021 at the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University were retrospectively collected. Images that the thicknesses of QCT reconstruction layer were respectively 1 and 5 mm were transferred to the QCT Pro workstation,and ROI thicknesses were adjusted to 5,7,and 9 mm,respectively. The average BMD values of QCT measurements were recorded under different thicknesses of reconstruction layer and different ROI thicknesses. Then,the effects of the choose of different thicknesses of reconstruction layer and the different ROI thicknesses on BMD values that were measured by QCT were analyzed. Results:The average BMD values of 1 mm and 5 mm thicknesses of reconstruction layer were respectively (117.41±45.97) mg/cm3 and (118.77±44.84) mg/cm3 when ROI thickness was 5 mm,with a statistically significant difference (t=-2.283,P<0.05). The average BMD values of 1 mm and 5 mm thicknesses of reconstruction layer were respectively (116.38±46.06) mg/cm3 and (119.06±44.55) mg/cm3 when the ROI thickness was 7mm,and the difference was statistically significant (t=-3.280,P<0.05). The average BMD values of 1 mm and 5 mm thicknesses of reconstruction layer were respectively (116.25±45.36) mg/cm3 and (120.12±44.10) mg/cm3 when the ROI thickness was 9 mm,and the difference was statistically significant (t=-5.841,P<0.001). The differences in BMD measurement values among 5,7 and 9 mm ROI thicknesses were not statistically significant when the thicknesses of reconstruction layer were respectively 1 and 5 mm. Conclusion:There is an effect of the thickness of QCT reconstruction layer on average BMD measurement values,and 1 mm thickness of reconstruction layer is more suitable to clinical application,while there is not significant effect in ROI thickness on average BMD measurement value of QCT. In clinical application,it is feasible to adjust ROI thickness according to actual situation so as to avoid the effect caused by some factors such as fracture or vertebral implants.

Objective To explore the effect of low-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation(rTMS)combined with unilateral upper limb mirror training on contralateral limb strength in patients with hemiplegia after ischemic stroke.Methods A total of 196 patients with hemiplegia after ischemic stroke were selected.All patients were divided into study group and control group via a random number table method,with 98 patients in each group.The control group received mirror training,while the study group received low-frequency rTMS treatment in addition to the control group.The neuroelectrophysiology,neurological function,limb motor function,and clinical efficacy of all patients were observed before and after treatment,and all patients were performed the resting-state functional MRI examination.A generalized estimating equation(GEE)model were used to analyze the improvement of contralateral limb strength.Results After treatment,the seed points in the study group showed a significant enhancement in connectivity with the whole brain function.The overall efficiency of the study group was significantly better than that of the control group.After treatment,the central motor conduction time(CMCT),neuron specific enolase(NSE),cortical latency(CL),and S100β of the two groups of patients were significantly reduced compared with before treatment,while the neurotrophin-3(NT-3),nerve growth factor(NGF),Fugl-Meyer assessment upper extremities(FMA-UE),Wolf motor function test(WMFT),modified Barthel index(MBI),and Berg balance scale(BBS)scores were significantly increased.Moreover,the study group showed a more significant improvement compared to the control group(P＜0.05).The GEE model analysis results showed that the improvement of contralateral limb strength in the study group was significantly better than that in the control group.Conclusion Low-frequency rTMS combined with unilateral upper limb mirror training can improve cortical excitability and upper limb motor function in hemiplegic patients after ischemic stroke,with good therapeutic effects.

Objective To investigate the characteristics of Chinese medicine syndromes and the possible metabolic substance basis of spontaneously hypertensive rat(SHR).Methods 10-week-old SPF SHR and WKY of the same strain were divided into SHR group and WKY group with 8 rats in each group.The general state,temperament,peripheral vascular filling,tongue characteristics,diet,water intake,urine and feces volume and characteristics,blood pressure,heart rate,respiratory rate,pain threshold,and open field behavior of SHR rats were observed and tested comprehensively to identify the possible syndrome types of Chinese medicine.At the same time,liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry was used to analyze non-targeted serum metabolites to preliminarily reveal the material basis of blood pressure elevation and Chinese medicine syndrome manifestations.Results Compared with WKY group,the scores of dark yellow hair color,irritable degree and peripheral capillary filling were higher in SHR group(P＜0.0001).Red tongue color,dry tongue,little body fluid;24 h diet and water intake,urine volume and fecal volume were less(P＜0.05),fecal water content was lower(P＜0.001);systolic blood pressure(SBP),diastolic blood pressure(DBP),mean arterial pressure(MAP),heart rate(HR)and respiratory rate(RR)were significantly higher(P＜0.05);Lower pain threshold(P＜0.0001);The open field experiment shows that the moving distance and residence time of the edge are longer(P＜0.001).Serum non-targeted metabolomics result showed that,compared with WKY group,the SHR group had 114 metabolites with significant differences(P＜0.05).These differential metabolites were mainly lipids and lipid-like molecules(40.35％),organic acids and derivatives(22.8％),and organoheterocyclic compounds(15.79％).A total of 25 metabolic pathways were identified by KEGG enrichment analysis.Further differential abundance analysis showed that 16 pathways were activated,only 4 pathways were inhibited,and 5 pathways were not significantly changed.The glutamatergic synapse and GABAergic synapse were activated,while the serotonergic synapse was inhibited.Conclusions The symptoms of SHR include impatience and irritability,peripheral vascular dilation and collateral circulation formation,bulbar conjunctival congestive swelling,red tongue coloration,a dry tongue,constipation,red-yellow urine of low volume,and a rapid heart rate and high respiratory rate.All these suggest that SHR is a syndrome of hypertension with hyperactivity of liver-yang.The material basis of SHR is not only related to lipid,amino acid,and carbohydrate metabolism disorders,but also may be related to metabolic disorders of glutaminergic,GABAergic,and serotonergic neural pathways.

Objective:To identify the serotype and genotype characteristics of the first cluster infection of Brucella in Nujiang Lisu Autonomous Prefecture of Yunnan Province. Methods:The information of seven suspected cluster brucellosis cases reported in Lanping County, Nujiang Lisu Autonomous Prefecture in April 2023 were collected, blood samples were collected, and the strains were isolated and cultured. Serological methods were employed for brucellosis diagnosis, bacterial species identification was performed using BCSP31-PCR and AMOS-PCR. Multilocus locus variable-number tandem repeat analysis (MLVA) was conducted for strain genotyping, followed by phylogenetic analysis comparing the strains with those from other regions of China.Results:All seven cases were diagnosed with brucellosis, they were all villagers from the same village and had daily contact with sheeps. Four suspected Brucella strains were isolated, identified as Brucella melitensis biotype by BCSP31-PCR and AMOS-PCR. The four isolated strains exhibited identical MLVA-16 genotype, with MLVA-8 genotype 42 and MLVA-11 genotype 180, belonging to the Eastern Mediterranean lineage. Compared with the MLVA-16 of the isolated strains from other regions of China, the four isolated strains formed an independent cluster. Conclusion:The first cluster infection of Brucella in Nujiang Lisu Autonomous Prefecture of Yunnan Province is caused by Brucella melitensis biotype, and the four isolated strains have showed unique MLVA genotype.

Objective:To learn about the geographical distribution and bio-tying diversity characteristics of Brucella strains isolated in Yunnan Province. Methods:From March 2017 to December 2023, 516 suspected Brucella strains were collected from brucellosis surveillance sites and hospitals in Yunnan Province, and Yunnan Institute of Endemic Disease Control and Prevention. The Brucella isolates were confirmed to genus level by BCSP31-PCR, and subsequently identified to species and biovar level using conventional biotyping methods and AMOS-PCR. The geographical distribution of the strains was visualized using ArcGIS 10.8 software, simultaneously analyze the general characteristics of brucellosis patients. Results:Among the 516 suspected Brucella strains, 514 strains were isolated from patient blood samples and 2 strains were isolated from sheep blood samples. BCSP31-PCR identification showed that all strains were Brucella spp. The results of conventional biotyping and AMOS-PCR identification revealed that the isolates comprised 514 Brucella melitensis strains (16 strains of Brucella melitensis biovar 1 and 498 strains of Brucella melitensis biovar 3), one Brucella abortus (biovar 1) strain, and one Brucella canis strain. The strain was distributed in 69 counties/cities of 13 prefectures/cities in Yunnan Province, involving 390 administrative villages in 186 townships.

Objective:To investigate the incidence of basal ganglia calcification (BGC), and risk factors for BGC in acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients.Methods:A total of 730 patients with nervous system diseases hospitalized in Department of Neurology, Shanghai Punan Hospital of Pudong New Area from January 2023 to December 2023 were enrolled. These patients were divided into AIS group ( n=380) and non-AIS group ( n=350). Propensity score matching (PSM) was firstly used for 1:1 matching to eliminate the differences in baseline data of these patients; BGC incidence was compared between the two groups. Univariate and multivariate Logistic regression analyses were used to screen the independent risk factors for BGC in AIS patients. Results:After PSM, there were 251 patients in the AIS group and 251 patients in the non-AIS group. No significant difference was noted between the two groups in age, gender, histories of hypertension, diabetes, hyperlipidemia, coronary heart disease, smoking and drinking, ratio of previous stroke, and serum calcium, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, homocysteine, uric acid, estimated glomerular filtration rate, or parathyroid hormone ( P>0.05). BGC incidence in the AIS group was 33.1% (83/251), with mild BGC in 55 patients (21.9%), moderate BGC in 19 patients (7.6%), and severe BGC in 9 patients (3.6%). BGC incidence in the AIS group was significantly higher than that in the non-AIS group (33.1% vs. 16.7%, P<0.05). Univariate and multivariate Logistic regression analyses showed that female ( OR=1.842, 95% CI: 1.021-3.324, P=0.043) and diabetes ( OR=1.953, 95% CI: 1.205-3.167, P=0.007) were independent risk factors for BGC in AIS patients. Conclusion:Compared with non-AIS patients, AIS patients trend to have BGC; female AIS patients with diabetes mellitus are more likely to have BGC.
