Objective To analyze the influenza-like illness (ILI) data in Ordos City from 2017 to 2023 and conduct nucleic acid detection of the virus to understand the local influenza epidemic situation, and to provide a reliable basis for influenza prevention and control in the city. Methods Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) was used to identify virus subtypes in ILI throat swab samples. Comparisons of positive rates were conducted using the chi-square test, with a significance level of α=0.05. Results From 2017 to 2023, a total of 3,283,434 outpatient and emergency visits were recorded at the Ordos City Central Hospital, including 74,159 ILI cases, with an ILI proportion of 2.26%. The majority of ILI cases (74.43%) occurred in children aged 0~14 years old. The overall positive rate of influenza virus nucleic acid detection was 10.87%, with the highest proportion being subtype A (seasonal H3) at 43.03%. The highest detection rate was observed in the 5~14 years age group, with statistically significant differences in positive rates across age groups (χ²=155.638, P<0.001). Influenza peaks occurred mainly from November to March of the following year. From January to April, three types of influenza were prevalent alternately or mixed, while from October to December, subtype A (seasonal H3) predominated. Positive rates varied significantly across months (χ²=250.923, P<0.001). The temporal trends of ILI proportions and PCR-positive rates were consistent. Conclusion Influenza in Ordos City exhibits distinct seasonal and age distribution characteristics, with alternating or mixed circulation of three virus types. Continued efforts are needed to strengthen influenza surveillance, especially the prevention and control of influenza in infants and adolescents.

Objective:To study the epidemiological characteristics of human brucellosis in Ordos City and provide reference and theoretical guidance for prevention and control of the disease.Methods:The surveillance data of human brucellosis cases and the serological surveillance data of key occupational populations reported by the Ordos City Center for Disease Control and Prevention from 2013 to 2022 were collected and analyzed descriptively. ArcGIS 10.8 software was used to draw a spatial distribution map of human brucellosis in Ordos City, and SPSS 26.0 software was used to conduct Spearman correlation analysis to further explore the impact of economic factors on human brucellosis.Results:From 2013 to 2022, a total of 8 676 cases of human brucellosis were reported in Ordos City, with an average annual incidence rate of 40.93/100 000. In 2022, 2 570 cases were reported, with an incidence rate of 116.78/100 000, reaching the peak in the past 10 years. The cases were mainly distributed in Dalad Banner, Hangjin Banner, and Otog Front Banner, with a total of 6 415 cases, accounting for 73.94% of the total number of cases. The spatial distribution spread from north to south and from north to east. The majority of cases were in the age group of 40 to 65 years old (6 061 cases, accounting for 69.86%), male (6 089 cases, accounting for 70.18%), and farmers and herdsmen (7 367 cases, accounting for 84.91%). The median time interval between onset and diagnosis was 16 days. The positive rate of serological surveillance in key occupational groups was 5.38% (7 058/131 229). The results of Spearman correlation analysis showed that the number of agricultural legal entities, the number of animal husbandry legal entities, regional gross domestic product, per capita disposable income of rural and pastoral residents, total agricultural output value, the number of cattle and sheep at the end of the year, milk production, and mutton production were important factors affecting the incidence of brucellosis ( P < 0.05). Conclusions:The incidence of brucellosis in Ordos City is on the rise, and the epidemic situation is severe. It is necessary to strengthen the surveillance and joint prevention and control of human brucellosis to prevent the spread and expansion of the epidemic.

OBJECTIVE To study the effects of the Mongolian medicine Sugemule-4 on the metabolism of insomnia rats， and to preliminarily explore its possible mechanisms for improving insomnia. METHODS The rat model of chronic stress insomnia was established by tail clipping stimulation and intraperitoneal injection of p-chlorophenyl alanine solution. Twenty-four male rats were randomly divided into the normal group， model group， diazepam group （positive control， 0.92 mg/kg）， and Sugemule-4 group （5.2 g/kg）， with 6 rats in each group. Since the 7th day of tail clipping stimulation， the Sugemule-4 group and diazepam group began to be intragastrically administered with relevant medicine； the normal group and model group were intragastrically administered with an equal volume of distilled water， once a day， for 14 consecutive days. The learning and memory abilities of rats were tested using a water maze experiment， and the non-invasive sleep activity monitoring system was used to monitor the 24- hour sleep time of rats. A metabolomics study was conducted on rat serum and hippocampal tissue by using ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. The multivariate statistical analysis method was adopted to analyze the differential metabolites in serum and hippocampal tissue of rats， and screen for differential metabolites and metabolic pathways among those groups. RESULTS Compared with the normal group， the escape latency of rats in the model group was significantly increased， the times of crossing platforms were significantly reduced， and the percentage of average 24-hour sleep time was significantly reduced （P＜0.05）. Compared with the model group， the levels of the above indicators were significantly reversed in the diazepam group and Sugemule-4 group （P＜0.05）. Metabolomics studies found that a total of 9 differential metabolites were identified in rat serum and hippocampal tissue， including 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid， canine urate， canine urinary quinolinic acid， 5-hydroxytryptamine， phenol sulfate， 1-carboxyethyltyrosine， 3-（4-hydroxyphenyl） lactate， N-acetyl tyrosine， tyrosine and phenol sulfate， mainly involving 2 metabolic pathways of tryptophan and tyrosine.CONCLUSIONS Sugemule-4 can improve the sleep time and behavioral performance of insomnia rats， and its mechanism may be associated with affecting amino acid metabolic pathways such as tryptophan and tyrosine.

Objective To observe the influence of congenital heart disease(atrial septal defect,ASD)to intervene closure on the right structure of children(<1 5 years)and adults(1 5-65 years)and to make the safety assessment.Methods Totally 1 1 1 un-derwent interventional treatment of complications in patients with ASD in our hospital from 2010 to 2013 were retrospective ana-lyzed.Closure on changing of right heart structure of child and adult were measured by ultrasonic cardiogram.Closure falls off,shut valve insufficiency,arrhythmia,residual shunt were recorded by ultrasonic cardiogram and electrocardiogram.making statistical a-nalysis.Results The inner diameter of the right atrium(RAD),right ventricle diameter(RVD),pulmonary artery diameter(PA) and right ventricular outflow tract(RVOT)were decreased compared with pre-operation(P < 0.05 ),during the follow-up 1,3,6 month,they was continue decreased in the aged between1 5-65 group(P <0.05),but was stable in less than 1 5 years old age group (P >0.05 ).The complication rate of children and adults were 25.0% and 21.3% respectively,and there were no significantly difference(P >0.05),and was no serious complications.Conclusion Congenital heart disease intervention of atria septal defects can improve heart right structure,which can benefit both children and adult,there is no difference in complication rates.All of these have less serious complications,high safety,curative effect affirmation.
