Background: and Purpose Symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (sICH) following endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) is a severe complication associated with adverse functional outcomes and increased mortality rates. Currently, a reliable predictive model for sICH risk after EVT is lacking. Methods: This study used data from patients aged ≥20 years who underwent EVT for anterior circulation stroke from the nationwide Taiwan Registry of Endovascular Thrombectomy for Acute Ischemic Stroke (TREAT-AIS). A predictive model including factors associated with an increased risk of sICH after EVT was developed to differentiate between patients with and without sICH. This model was compared existing predictive models using nationwide registry data to evaluate its relative performance. Results: Of the 2,507 identified patients, 158 developed sICH after EVT. Factors such as diastolic blood pressure, Alberta Stroke Program Early CT Score, platelet count, glucose level, collateral score, and successful reperfusion were associated with the risk of sICH after EVT. The TREAT-AIS score demonstrated acceptable predictive accuracy (area under the curve [AUC]=0.694), with higher scores being associated with an increased risk of sICH (odds ratio=2.01 per score increase, 95% confidence interval=1.64–2.45, P<0.001). The discriminatory capacity of the score was similar in patients with symptom onset beyond 6 hours (AUC=0.705). Compared to existing models, the TREAT-AIS score consistently exhibited superior predictive accuracy, although this difference was marginal. Conclusions The TREAT-AIS score outperformed existing models, and demonstrated an acceptable discriminatory capacity for distinguishing patients according to sICH risk levels. However, the differences between models were only marginal. Further research incorporating periprocedural and postprocedural factors is required to improve the predictive accuracy.

Objective: To evaluate the effectiveness for the construction of the "mosquito-free village" in Jinzishan Village, Fuling District, Chongqing Municipality, so as to provide references for improving mosquito control practices in hilly and mountainous rural areas. Methods: The "mosquito-free village" initiative in Fuling District was launched in April 2023. Mosquito density monitoring was conducted annually from April to October. Larval mosquito density was monitored using the path method and scoop-catch method, and adult mosquito density was monitored using human-baited landing catch. One hundred and fifty-two villagers were randomly conducted before the "mosquito-free village" construction (April 2023) and one hundred and sixty-seven villagers were randomly conducted after the construction (November 2024). Knowledge awareness rate and correct behavioral practices regarding mosquito control among villagers were assessed. The satisfaction among villagers were evaluated in November 2024. The effectiveness of the initiative was evaluated based on mosquito density data, health education outcomes from 2023 to 2024, and satisfaction. Results: The average larval mosquitoes path index in Jinshanzi Village decreased from 1.50 spots/km in 2023 to 0.07 spots/km in 2024 (P<0.05). The average sampling spoon index of larval mosquitoes decreased from 3.43% in 2023 to 0 in 2024. The average landing rate index of adult mosquitoes decreased from 3.90 mosquitoes/(person·time) in 2023 to 0.38 mosquitoes/(person·time) in 2024 (P<0.05). The awareness rate of mosquito control knowledge and the formation rate of correct behaviors among villagers increased from 59.87% and 57.24% in 2023 to 92.22% and 90.42% in 2024, respectively (both P<0.05). In 2024, the satisfaction of villagers was 92.81%. Conclusion The mosquito density, health education effectiveness, and satisfaction of villagers in Jinzishan Village have all met the evaluation criteria for a "mosquito-free village", providing a replicable model for promotion in hilly and mountainous rural areas.

Lung cancer has the highest morbidity and mortality rate among all cancers. Because of the complex pathogenesis， there are limitations in the common Western medicine treatment methods. Clinical and experimental studies have proved that traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） can not only effectively treat lung cancer and alleviate the clinical symptoms of cancer patients but also reduce the adverse reactions and complications caused by surgery， chemotherapy， and radiotherapy to improve the quality of life of the patients. The biological behaviors of lung cancer cells， such as proliferation， invasion， and metastasis， are closely related to their metabolic reprogramming. Metabolic reprogramming in lung cancer involves a series of metabolic changes such as increased glucose uptake and consumption， enhanced glycolysis， increased amino acid uptake and catabolism， and enhanced lipid and protein synthesis. Studies have reported that TCM active components， extracts， and compound prescriptions can effectively inhibit the biological behaviors of lung cancer by regulating metabolic reprogramming. Therefore， this paper reviews the pharmacological mechanisms of TCM active components， extracts， and compound prescriptions in regulating metabolic reprogramming of lung cancer， with the aim of providing a new way of thinking for the treatment of lung cancer by TCM regulation of metabolic reprogramming of lung cancer cells. The available studies suggest that TCM mainly inhibits the extracellular signal-regulated protein kinase （ERK）/c-Myc， phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase （PI3K）/protein kinase B （Akt）/mammalian target of rapamycin （mTOR）， and hypoxia-inducible factor-α （HIF-1α） pathways. Furthermore， the expression of monocarboxylate transporter 4 （MCT4）， glucose transporter 1 （GLUT1）， pyruvate dehydrogenase （PDH）， phosphofructokinase 1 （PFK1）， pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase 1 （PDK1）， pyruvate kinase M2 （PKM2）， hexokinase （HK）， lactate dehydrogenase （LDH）， and lactate dehydrogenase A （LDHA） are inhibited. In this way， TCM inhibits the glucose uptake by lung cancer cells and glycolysis in lung cancer cells to reduce the energy metabolism of tumor cells， ultimately achieving the therapeutic effect on lung cancer.

Objective To investigate the mechanism underlying the Jiaji electroacupuncture(EA)-induced improvement in neuronal apoptosis among rats with spinal cord injury(SCI).Methods Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into sham,SCI,EA,and EA+colivelin groups(n=10 each).Allen's modified heavy-fall method was used to prepare the animal model of SCI.The clamped-spine EA group was treated with EA at the paraspinal clamped spine points at the vertebral bodies of T7_9 at the upper and lower ends of the spinal cord injury on the backs of the rats.The Basso-Beattie-Bresnahan score and slope test were used to evaluate the rats'locomotor abilities;TUNEL staining was used to detect changes in neuronal apoptosis in the spinal cord;immunofluorescence was used to detect changes in glial fibrillary acidic protein(GFAP)expression in the rats'spinal cord tissues;and Western blotting was used to detect the relative expressions of GFAP,phospho-signal transducer and activator of transcription 3(p-STAT3),STAT3,and cleaved caspase-3 pro-tein expression in spinal cord tissues.Results The mean Basso-Beattie-Bresnahan score was higher in the EA compared with SCI group(P＜0.01).The mean angle on the slant plate test was smaller in the EA compared with sham group(P＜0.001).The mean angle was slightly larger in the EA compared with SCI group(P＜0.01).GFAP-positive,p-STAT3,cleaved caspase-3 protein,and inflammatory cytokine expressions were significantly increased(P＜0.05)and the number of neuronal apoptotic cells was increased(P＜0.01)in the SCI compared with sham group.However,the opposite trend was observed in the EA group.In addition,the therapeutic effect of spinal EA on spinal cord injury was reversed after colivelin administration(P＜0.05).Conclusion EA reduces neuronal apoptosis and improves motor and balance functions in the spinal cord tissues of rats with SCI,possibly via GFAP/STAT3 pathway inhibition.

The effect of porcine SIRT5 on replication of foot and mouth disease virus type O(FMDV-O)and the underlying regulatory mechanism were investigated.Western blot and RT-qPCR analyses were employed to monitor expression of endoge-nous SIRT5 in PK-15 cells infected with FMDV-O.Three pairs of SIRT5-specific siRNAs were synthesized.Changes to SIRT5 and FMDV-O protein and transcript levels,in addition to virus copy numbers,were measured by western blot and RT-qPCR analyses.PK-15 cells were transfected with a eukaryotic SIRT5 expression plasmid.Western blot and RT-qPCR analyses were used to explore the impact of SIRT5 overexpression on FMDV-O replication.Meanwhile,RT-qPCR analysis was used to detect the effect of SIRT5 overexpression on the mRNA expression levels of type I interferon-stimulated genes induced by SeV and FMDV-O.The results showed that expression of SIRT5 was up-regulated in PK-15 cells infected with FMDV-O and siRNA interfered with SIRT5 to inhibit FMDV-O replication.SIRT5 overexpression promoted FMDV-O replication.SIRT5 over-expression decreased mRNA expression levels of interferon-stimulated genes induced by SeV and FMDV-O.These results suggest that FMDV-O infection stimulated expression of SIRT5 in PK-15 cells,while SIRT5 promoted FMDV-O rep-lication by inhibiting production of type I interferon-stimula-ted genes.These findings provide a reference to further ex-plore the mechanism underlying the ability of porcine SIRT5 to promote FMDV-O replication.

The feasibility of fecal-oral transmission of Trichinella spiralis larva and infectivity in feces were assessed.Six Wistar rats were infected with 4 000 T.spiralis larvae at one time.The feces of three rats(group A)were collected at 0,4,8,12,16,24,and 48 h,and then divided into four aliquots and stored at room temperature for 0,24,48,and 72 h,respectively.The number of larvae in the feces was counted under a microscope,and each aliquot containing T.spiralis larvae was fed to five Kunming mice.All mice were killed 42 days after infection.The number and reproductive capacity index(RCI)of T.spir-alis larva were calculated.The feces from another three Wistar rats(group B)were collected from 1 to 23 days after infection and DNA was extracted from each fecal sample for PCR detection of the mitochondrial atp6 gene of T.spiralis.The results showed that T.spiralis was discharged in feces at 4-16 h after infection,peaking at 8 h,with no detection after 24 h.The numbers of T.spiralis larva in fecal samples of three rats in group A were 350,400,145,and 40 at 4,8,12,and 16 h after infection,respectively.The RCI values of T.spiralis larva for samples collected at 4 h were 112.5,20.5,and 2 after storage at room temperature for 0,24,and 48 h,66.7 and 9 for samples collected at 8 h after 0 and 24 h,13.3 and 5 for samples collected at 12 after 0 and 24 h,and 10 for samples collected at 16 h after 0 h,respectively.Of the three rats in group B,two were posi-tive for the atp6 gene for 18 consecutive days,and the third was positive for 20 consecutive days.These results indicate that one-time ingestion of T.spiralis larva in quantity can discharge infectious T.spiralis larvae,which can be transmitted through the fecal-oral route.PCR analysis is appropriate for detection of the T.spiralis atp6 gene in feces,but not infectivity of T.spiralis.

Objective:To explore the overall survival and prognostic factors of patients over 50 years old with acute myeloid leukemia(AML).Methods:The clinical data of 222 AML patients aged over 50 years in our hospital from January 2016 and June 2021 were retrospectively analyzed.Kaplan-Meier method was used to evaluate the overall survival(OS)rate,and Cox regression model to evaluate the prognostic factors.Results:The 1-year and 3-year OS rates of all patients were 46.8％and 28.8％,respectively.The recurrence rate of patients who achieved remission during follow-up time was 57％.Both univariate and multivariate analysis showed that advanced age,MLL family fusion gene,PHF6 gene mutation,TP53 gene mutation,intolerance to standard chemotherapy,incomplete remission,complex karyotype,+mar karyotype and inv(3)karyotype were significantly correlated with prognosis(all P＜0.05).Negative fusion gene and positive AML-ETO fusion gene had no obvious survival advantage in this population.In patients with complete remission,there was no significant survival advantage in those who achieved minimal residual disease negative.Conclusion:AML patients aged over 50 years have a poor outcome and high recurrence rate.The prognosis is affected by multiple factors and has its own characteristics.

Objective:To comprehensively understand the basic situation of critical care medicine in Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps in order to promote the standardization, specialization, and systematization of quality control in critical care medicine.Methods:A survey was conducted from January 1, 2019, to December 31, 2021, using a questionnaire to investigate the human resources and basic allocation of comprehensive intensive care medicine departments in Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps division level hospitals and surrounding second-class hospitals. The survey content includes: basic situation of medical units, intensive care unit (ICU) basic information, ICU personnel situation, ICU equipment configuration situation, ICU performance situation, etc. The survey questionnaire was distributed in March 2022, with dedicated ICU attending physicians or above designated by each ICU as the contact person for the survey.Results:Sixteen questionnaires were distributed and returned, all of which were included from 16 comprehensive intensive care medicine departments in the Corps and surrounding areas, including 5 second class first class hospitals and 11 third class first class hospitals. There were 196 beds in 16 ICU units, and the ICU bed ratio (1.99% overall, 1.77% in third class first class hospitals) was lower than the 2%-8% stipulated in the Guidelines for the Construction and Management of Critical Care Medicine (Trial) issued by the National Health Commission. Only ICU beds in second class first class hospitals accounted for 2.65%, meeting this standard. The comprehensive ICU doctor-bed ratio in 16 hospitals was 0.55∶1, third class first class hospitals was 0.60∶1, and second class first class hospitals was 0.44∶1, compared with 0.8∶1 stipulated in the ministerial guidelines, there was a certain gap. Among the 108 doctors in 16 ICUs, only four have a master's degree or above. Associate senior and above professional and technical titles accounted for 27.78%, less than one third. Among the 334 nursing staff, there were no personnel with a master's degree or above, and only 10 personnel with associate senior or above professional and technical titles. From 2019 to 2021, there was 1 new master's degree personnel, 2 new senior professional and technical personnel, and 12 deputy senior professional and technical personnel. It indicating that the proportion of highly educated and experienced physicians and nurses were lower, team building lags behind, talent introduction were lower, and highly educated talents were scarce. The statistical analysis results of the absolute growth of core technology showed that the growth of core technology was slow, the progressiveness was insufficient, and the professional technical ability was insufficient. Conclusions:The construction of critical care majors and talent echelons in the Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps region is lagging behind, the overall professional level of the discipline is not high, and there is a lack of specialized personnel. Further improvement is needed in talent cultivation, technical development and training, medical quality management, and other aspects to ensure medical quality and safety.
