Objective: To evaluate the current situation of thermal environment in primary and secondary school classrooms during winter, and to analyze students thermal comfort needs, so as to provide a basis for improving classroom thermal environment. Methods: From December 16 to 26, 2024, a stratified cluster random sampling method was used to select 90 classrooms from 15 primary and secondary schools in centralized/air conditioned heating areas(Liaoning Province, Tianjin City, Shanghai City) and naturally ventilated areas(Anhui Province and Jiangxi Province)for on site environmental measurement. A questionnaire survey was conducted among 743 students. The differences between groups using the χ 2 test were compared. Based on actual measurement data, a predicted mean vote prepared percentage of dissatisfied (PMV-PPD) model for centralized/air conditioned classrooms and an adaptive model for naturally ventilated classrooms were established, and the thermal neutral temperature and comfort interval were calculated. Results: The average outdoor temperature during on site measurement was 4.00(0.20，7.00)℃. In classrooms with centralized or air conditioned heating systems, the measured average temperature was (19.33±2.59)℃, with a thermal comfort range of 20.35-25.35 ℃ and a thermal neutral temperature of 22.85 ℃. And 13.92% of students reported feeling cold, while 80.80% felt comfortable. In classrooms with natural ventilation, the measured average temperature was (12.26±1.83)℃, with a thermal neutral temperature of 19.67 ℃ and a thermal comfort range of 16.17-23.17 ℃. About 48.33% of students reported feeling cold, and 49.81 % felt comfortable.The results of univariate analysis showed that there were statistically significant differences in shoe thickness, temperature sensation, relative humidity sensation and wind speed sensation between centralized/air conditioned heating areas ( χ 2= 7.01 , 31.47, 13.57, 13.80,all P <0.05). There were also statistically significant differences in school stage for primary and secondary school students, body mass index, classroom location for seat, temperature sensation, relative humidity sensation and wind speed sensation between naturally ventilated areas ( χ 2=42.13, 11.13, 11.04, 60.39, 29.27, 38.46,all P <0.05). Conclusions There are differences in thermal environment and students subjective thermal comfort in primary and secondary schools under different ventilation modes in winter. The temperature standards for heated classrooms should be revised, and differentiated environmental regulation strategies should be adopted based on different ventilation methods to improve students health and comfort levels.

Diabetic sarcopenia (DS) is a common but often ignored skeletal muscle complication in individuals with diabetes mellitus. It is characterized by progressive loss of skeletal muscle mass, reduced muscle strength, and impaired physical performance, which may further increase the risk of falls, disabilities, metabolic disorders, and adverse clinical outcomes. Traditionally, DS has been attributed mainly to hyperglycemia, insulin resistance, aging-related muscle decline, and chronic complications of diabetes. However, increasing evidence suggests that lipid metabolic disturbance and pathological lipid metabolic reprogramming are not merely secondary consequences of diabetes, but may actively participate in the initiation and progression of DS. Under diabetic conditions, impaired fatty acid uptake, transport, oxidation, and storage disrupt skeletal muscle metabolic homeostasis, leading to ectopic lipid deposition and accumulation of lipotoxic intermediates. These lipid-derived metabolites can aggravate insulin resistance, impair mitochondrial energy production, enhance oxidative stress, activate chronic low-grade inflammation, and disturb protein synthesis and degradation balance, thereby accelerating skeletal muscle atrophy and functional decline. Lipid metabolic dysregulation may also interact with multiple pathological processes involved in DS, including mitochondrial dysfunction, inflammatory signaling, oxidative damage, impaired autophagy, and gut microbiota imbalance. These mechanisms do not occur independently; instead, they form a complex bidirectional vicious cycle with diabetes-related metabolic disorders. Specifically, mitochondrial dysfunction reduces fatty acid oxidative capacity, which further promotes lipid accumulation and lipotoxicity. Inflammatory activation can impair insulin signaling and muscle protein metabolism, while lipid overload may in turn amplify inflammatory responses. Similarly, gut microbiota dysbiosis and altered microbial metabolites may influence systemic inflammation, lipid metabolism, and skeletal muscle homeostasis. Therefore, lipid metabolic reprogramming provides an important mechanistic perspective for understanding the progression of DS from metabolic disturbance to structural and functional muscle impairment. Exercise intervention is an effective and clinically feasible non-pharmacological strategy for the prevention and management of DS. Both aerobic exercise and resistance training have been shown to improve insulin sensitivity, enhance fatty acid oxidation, increase mitochondrial biogenesis, reduce ectopic lipid deposition, and attenuate lipotoxic metabolite accumulation. These adaptations not only improved glucose and lipid metabolism, but also increased the preservation of muscle mass, muscle strength, and physical function. Moreover, combined exercise strategies may provide complementary benefits by integrating the metabolic advantages of aerobic exercise with the anabolic and functional effects of resistance training. Based on analyses of publicly available datasets and literature evidences, this review systematically summarizes the role of lipid metabolic disorders in the pathogenesis of DS, with particular attention to the molecular mechanisms linking lipid dysregulation to insulin resistance, chronic inflammation, oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysfunction, and gut microbiota disturbance. Furthermore, this review discusses the potential mechanisms by which exercise intervention improves DS through the regulation of lipid metabolic reprogramming, and outlines exercise prescription strategies in terms of modality, intensity, frequency, and duration. Understanding the interaction between lipid metabolism and skeletal muscle dysfunction may provide new theoretical evidence for early identification, mechanistic research, and precision exercise therapy in DS. Overall, targeting pathological lipid metabolic reprogramming through exercise intervention represents a promising and clinically actionable approach for improving muscle health and prognosis in individuals with DS.

Intraoperative cell salvage (IOCS) has been widely applied as an important blood conservation measure in surgical operations. However, there is currently a lack of clinical practice guidelines for the implementation of IOCS in patients with malignant tumors. This report aims to provide clinicians with recommendations on the use of IOCS in patients with malignant tumors based on the review and assessment of the existed evidence. Data were derived from databases such as PubMed, Embase, the Cochrane Library and Wanfang. The guideline development team formulated recommendations based on the quality of evidence, balance of benefits and harms, patient preferences, and health economic assessments. This study constructed seven major clinical questions. The main conclusions of this guideline are as follows: 1) Compared with no perioperative allogeneic blood transfusion (NPABT), perioperative allogeneic blood transfusion (PABT) leads to a more unfavorable prognosis in cancer patients (Recommended); 2) Compared with the transfusion of allogeneic blood or no transfusion, IOCS does not lead to a more unfavorable prognosis in cancer patients (Recommended); 3) The implementation of IOCS in cancer patients is economically feasible (Recommended); 4) Leukocyte depletion filters (LDF) should be used when implementing IOCS in cancer patients (Strongly Recommended); 5) Irradiation treatment of autologous blood to be reinfused can be used when implementing IOCS in cancer patients (Recommended); 6) A careful assessment of the condition of cancer patients (meeting indications and excluding contraindications) should be conducted before implementing IOCS (Strongly Recommended); 7) Informed consent from cancer patients should be obtained when implementing IOCS, with a thorough pre-assessment of the patient's condition and the likelihood of blood loss, adherence to standardized internally audited management procedures, meeting corresponding conditions, and obtaining corresponding qualifications (Recommended). In brief, current evidence indicates that IOCS can be implemented for some malignant tumor patients who need allogeneic blood transfusion after physician full evaluation, and LDF or irradiation should be used during the implementation process.

Objective:To evaluate the therapeutic value of radiotherapy in combined immunotherapy and chemotherapy as first-line treatment for patients with oligometastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on data from 195 NSCLC patients who lacked epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) or anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) mutations and were treated at the Anyang Tumor Hospital and the Fourth Hospital of Hebei Medical University from January 2019 to December 2021. These patients consisted of 166 male and 29 female cases, aged from 28 to 85 years, with an average age of (61.4 ± 9.3) years. These patients were divided into two groups, with each group receiving the radiotherapy and combined immunotherapy and chemotherapy (the radiotherapy and combination group, n = 60) and combined immunotherapy and chemotherapy only (the combination group, n = 135). Then, propensity score matching (PSM) was performed to analyze the differences in prognosis between both groups before and after PSM, as well as the short-term efficacy and adverse reactions after PSM. Results:For the 195 NSCLC patients, the median follow-up time was 31.8 months, with median overall survival (OS) and median progression-free survival (PFS) recorded at 23.8 months and 9.2 months, respectively. The radiotherapy and combination group exhibited enhanced 1-, 2-, and 3-year survival rates of 78.5%, 55.9%, and 45.1%, respectively, significantly higher than the combination group (48.3%, 35.6%, and 26.6%, respectively, χ2 = 14.65, P < 0.001). Similarly, the radiotherapy and combination group displayed 1-, 2-, and 3-year PFS rates of 51.9%, 29.5%, and 22.7%, respectively, exceeding those of the combination group (30.0%, 24.5%, and 16.9%, respectively, χ2=6.09, P=0.014). After PSM, the radiotherapy and combination group manifested an objective response rate (ORR) of 60.0% (33/55) and a disease control rate (DCR) of 89.1% (49/55), which were 16.4% (9/55) and 56.4% (31/55), respectively for the combination group. These results suggested that the radiotherapy and combination group demonstrated significantly higher ORR and DCR ( χ2 = 22.18, 14.85, P<0.001). After PSM, the radiotherapy and combination group yielded 1-, 2-, and 3-year survival rates of 70.9%, 52.3%, and 41.9%, respectively, significantly than the combination group (43.6%, 29.8%, and 27.1%, respectively, χ2=8.95, P=0.003). The radiotherapy and combination group exhibited 1-, 2-, and 3-year PFS rates of 47.3%, 27.3%, and 18.7%, respectively, significantly higher than the combination group (23.6%, 17.6%, and 15.4%, respectively, χ2 = 6.71, P = 0.010). Multivariate Cox regression analysis revealed that independent factors affecting OS included clinical stage, treatment regimen, number of immunotherapy cycles, and treatment efficacy ( HR = 1.88, 2.11, 0.23, 1.79, P < 0.05). Similarly, independent factors affecting PFS consisted of treatment regimen, number of immunotherapy cycles, and treatment efficacy ( HR = 1.62, 0.37, 3.42, P <0.05). There were no statistical differences in the incidence of grade ≥ 2 bone marrow suppression (18.2% vs. 12.7%) and grade ≥ 2 pneumonia (21.8% vs. 14.5%) between both groups ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Introducing radiotherapy into combined immunotherapy and chemotherapy as first-line treatment for oligometastatic NSCLC can optimize both local and systemic disease control and significantly improve patient prognosis without increasing treatment-related adverse reactions.

Objective:To investigate the impact of different luteal phase support protocols on pregnancy outcomes in patients aged ≤35 years undergoing modified natural cycle frozen-thawed embryo transfer (mNC-FET).Methods:A retrospective cohort study was conducted to analyze 2 086 cycles of patients aged ≤35 years who received mNC-FET cycles in Reproductive Health Hospital of the Third Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from January 2018 to December 2020. The cycles were divided into three groups based on luteal phase support protocols used. The patients received a combination of progesterone soft capsule and dydrogesterone in the group A (446 cycles), the patients received dydrogesterone in the group B (439 cycles), and the patients received a combination of progesterone vaginal sustained-release gel and dydrogesterone in the group C (1 201 cycles). The pregnancy and perinatal outcomes were compared between groups A and B, groups C and B after matching the baseline data in a ratio of 1∶1 using the propensity score matching (PSM). The effect of different luteal phase support on live birth rate was analyzed after adjusting for confounding factors affected by univariate and multivariate generalized estimating equation (GEE).Results:After PSM, there were no significant differences between groups A and B, groups C and B in human chorionic gonadotropin positive rate, clinical pregnancy rate, ectopic pregnancy rate, live birth rate in transplant cycle, incidence of low weight, macrosomia, premature delivery rate, pregnancy complication rate and incidence of birth defects (all P>0.05). GEE analysis showed that three different luteal phase support regimens were not associated with live birth rate. Conclusion:In the mNC-FET cycle, patients aged ≤35 years who chose dydrogesterone alone as luteal phase support drug, had no difference in live birth rate and perinatal outcome between progesterone soft capsules or progesterone vaginal sustained-release gel combined with dydrogesterone, but the outcome still needs to be confirmed by large sample prospective studies.

Objective:To investigate the clinical characteristics of Mycoplasma pneumonia infection in children of different ages, and to provide a basis for precise treatment. Methods:A total of 216 children with Mycoplasma pneumonia infection who were admitted to the Xi 'an Children's Hospital from January 2019 to December 2021 were included in this study. These children consisted of 117 males and 99 females. These children were divided into school-age group (> 6 years old, n = 75), preschool group (3-6 years old, n = 72) and infant and toddler group (< 3 years old, n = 69) according to age. Data on general demographics, clinical manifestations, complications, laboratory indicators, imaging findings, and bronchoscopic results, as well as treatment efficacy and outcomes, were collected and compared among the three groups. Results:There were statistically significant differences among the school-age, preschool, and infant and toddler groups in terms of dry cough [45 (60.00%), 34 (47.22%), 18 (26.08%)], wheezing [13 (17.33%), 19 (26.39%), 41 (59.42%)], concurrent pleural effusion [26 (34.67%), 20 (27.78%), 11 (15.94%)], pulmonary necrosis [12 (16.00%), 3 (4.17%), 0 (0)], pulmonary imaging findings (patchy shadows [12 (16.00%), 22 (30.56%), 46 (66.67%)], ground-glass opacities [11 (14.67%), 18 (25.00%), 40 (57.97%)], consolidation shadows [58 (77.33%), 42 (58.33%), 8 (11.59%)]), fever duration [(9.58 ± 4.85) days, (9.48 ± 4.89) days, (6.58 ± 3.64) days], and cough relief time [9 (8,12) days, 9 (8,11) days, 8 (7,11) days] ( χ2 = 16.94, 31.10, 6.59, 15.53, 41.51, 33.40, 65.12, F = 11.97, H = 6.05, all P < 0.05). However, there were no statistically significant differences in fever, dyspnea, concurrent atelectasis, or prognosis ( χ2 = 0.21, 0.27, 0.61, 1.74, all P > 0.05). The percentage of neutrophils [(63.91 ± 10.96)%, (58.26 ± 13.79)%, (50.98 ± 13.79)%], platelet count [(305.01 ± 96.13) × 10 9/L, (324.91 ± 108.05) × 10 9/L, (342.41 ± 120.50) × 10 9/L], erythrocyte sedimentation rate [(47.07 ± 26.46) mm/h, (48.29 ± 26.33) mm/h, (38.16 ± 18.23) mm/h], creatinine [(39.10 ± 7.02) μmol/L, (31.50 ± 5.43) μmol/L, (25.85 ± 4.57) μmol/L], alanine aminotransferase [14 (11, 21) U/L, 12 (9, 20) U/L, 15 (11, 19) U/L], creatine kinase isoenzyme [17 (14, 21) U/L, 20 (16, 24) U/L, 23 (19, 27) U/L], and lactate dehydrogenase [260.0 (224.5, 343.5) U/L, 294.5 (252.0, 379.3) U/L, 317.0 (266.5, 384.5) U/L] levels in the peripheral blood differed significantly among the school-age, preschool, and infant and toddler groups ( F = 37.07, 4.91, 3.55, 167.22, H = 7.54, 57.34, 33.58, all P < 0.05). However, there were no statistically significant differences in peripheral blood white blood cell count, C-reactive protein, or procalcitonin levels ( H = 1.09, 2.49, 2.21, all P > 0.05). The bronchoscopic examinations revealed mucosal congestion and edema in all three groups ( χ2 = 0.51, P > 0.05). However, the detection of lymphoid follicles [43 (57.33%), 28 (38.89%), 18 (26.09%)], longitudinal folds [58 (77.33%), 34 (47.22%), 10 (14.49%)], mucus plugs [46 (61.33%), 32 (44.44%), 6 (8.70%)], and airway shaping [16 (21.33%), 5 (6.94%), 0 (0.00%)] increased with age, showing statistically significant differences among the three groups ( χ2 = 14.72, 56.94, 43.30, 19.58, all P < 0.05). Conclusions:The clinical characteristics of children with Mycoplasma pneumonia infection vary among children of different ages. In infants and young children, wheezing symptoms are more common, and they are prone to multiple organ dysfunction. Lung imaging primarily shows scattered patchy shadows and ground-glass opacities. In contrast, older children mainly present with dry cough, and lung imaging typically reveals large areas of consolidation. Bronchoscopic examinations reveal characteristic findings such as lymphoid follicles, longitudinal folds, mucus plugs, and airway shaping, with longer durations of fever and cough relief.

Objective To understand the current situation of healthcare-associated infection(HAI)in China,pro-vide data support and decision-making basis for formulating scientific and effective strategies for HAI prevention and control.Methods A nationwide cross-sectional survey on HAI was conducted among various types and levels of medical institutions in China according to a unified protocol of bedside surveys and case investigations.Results In 2024,a total of 5 736 medical institutions and 2 751 765 patients were surveyed.Among them,34 889 HAI cases were identified,with a prevalence rate of 1.27％.The number of HAI episodes was 38 032,and case prevalence rate was 1.38％.The prevalence rate of HAI in medical institutions in different regions of China ranged from 0.66％to 2.35％.Among medical institutions of different scales,those with a bed capacity of ≥900 had the high-est incidence of HAI,reaching 1.65％.The most common infection site was the lower respiratory tract(44.66％),followed by the urinary tract(12.94％),surgical site(9.32％),upper respiratory tract(7.02％),and bloodstream infection(5.78％).The top 3 departments with the highest HAI rates were the general intensive care unit(10.02％),department of neurosurgery(5.51％),and department(group)of hematology(5.34％).A total of 23 238 strains of HAI pathogens were detected,with 10 714 strains(46.10％)from lower respiratory tract speci-mens.The top 5 detected strains were Klebsiella pneumoniae(14.76％),Pseudomonas aeruginosa(13.33％),Escherichia coli(12.79％),Acinetobacter baumannii(9.23％),and Staphylococcus aureus(7.88％).231 944 pa-tients underwent class Ⅰ incision surgery were monitored,with 1 647 cases experienced surgical site infection,and the prevalence rate of surgical site infection was 0.71％.The number of patients who should undergo pathogen de-tection(patients receiving therapeutic and therapeutic combined prophylactic antimicrobial agents)was 715 179,while the actual number was 480 492,with a pathogen detection rate of 67.18％.425 225 patients received patho-genic detection before treatment,with a detection rate of 59.46％.Conclusion The overall HAI prevalence in Chi-na is lower,showing disparities among medical institutions of different regions and scales.Therefore,precise imple-mentation of measures is necessary for HAI prevention and control,with a focus on high-risk institutions and high-risk departments,key areas,and critical procedures.All levels of medical institutions should continuously reduce the incidence of HAI by strengthening monitoring,standardizing the use of antimicrobial agents,and reinforcing basic HAI prevention and control measures.

Objective:To investigate the effects of TP53 genetic status(wild-type/mutated/null)on the drug resistance of decitabine(DAC)in myelodysplastic syndromes(MDS)and identify key resistance-associated genes.Methods:Two myeloid cell lines with distinct TP53 status(M-07e:wild-type;SKM-1:mutated;)were treated with gradient DAC concentrations(0-10 μmol/L)for 0-72 h.Cell viability was detected by CCK-8 assay.RNA-Seq transcriptomics,and methylation profiling were integrated to analyze differentially expressed genes.Results:Decitabine(DAC)treatment induced time-and dose-dependent inhibition of cell viability in CCK-8 assays,with SKM-1 cells exhibiting the highest resistance(IC50=5 μmol/L vs M-07e=0.5 μmol/L,P＜0.01).Transcriptomic analysis revealed 662 upregulated and 452 downregulated genes in DAC-treated M-07e cells,while SKM-1 cells showed 515 upregulated and 73 downregulated genes.By proteomic profiling,117 upregulated and 136 downregulated proteins were identified in M-07e cells,while 91 upregulated and 46 downregulated proteins were identified in SKM-1 cells following DAC exposure.Through integrated analysis of upregulated genes and proteins expression profiles,181 candidate genes were screened out,while methylation studies identified 884 hypomethylated genes with high-sensitivity loci and CpG density.Notably,31 genes overlapped between these datasets,and functional annotation indicated these drug-resistance-associated genes are primarily involved in positive regulation of cell differentiation,negative regulation of binding processes,and negative regulation of cellular component organization.Conclusion:TP53 mutations drive DAC resistance via epigenetic reprogramming.Targeting these genes may improve outcomes in TP53-mutated MDS.
