Objective: To understand the microclimate in primary and secondary school classrooms for the study period during the winter heating season, so as to provide a reference for the revision and improvement of relevant health standards. Methods: In December 2024, stratified random sampling was used to select 30 primary and secondary schools and 180 classrooms from the northern regions with centralized heating (Liaoning Province, Tianjin City) and the southern regions without centralized heating (Shanghai City, Anhui Province, and Jiangxi Province). Indoor temperature, relative humidity, wind speed, CO 2 and other indicators were measured on site. Variance analysis, t-test, Mann-Whitney U test and Kruskal-Wallis H test were used to analyze the differences in the microclimate of classrooms among regions and urban and rural differences. Results: The average temperature in the middle of the classrooms tested on site was (16.47±4.72)℃, and the variance analysis showed that the difference between the regions was statistically significant ( F=27.80, P <0.01). Among them, Tianjin had the highest average temperature of (20.43± 2.12 )℃, followed by Liaoning (19.03±2.23)℃, Shanghai (15.33±5.32)℃, Anhui (12.79±1.74)℃, and Jiangxi (11.69± 1.68 )℃. Horizontal temperature difference was 0.90 (0.50, 1.60)℃, the vertical temperature difference was 0.20 (0.10,0.60)℃, the average relative humidity was (44.39±16.16)%, the wind speed was 0.03(0.01,0.11)m/s, and the differences among different provinces and cities were statistically significant ( H/F =40.62, 82.69, 95.06, 55.28, all P <0.01). The average CO 2 volume concentration in urban areas of Tianjin, Liaoning, and Shanghai was 0.21(0.16,0.30)%, and there was no statistically significant difference ( H=4.65, P =0.10). There were grade differences in relative humidity ( F =3.71, 6.21) and CO 2 ( H =14.72, 12.92) in the north and the south (all P <0.05). In addition, the temperature, relative humidity, wind speed and CO 2 in the middle of the classroom were 42.8%, 67.8%, 100.0% and 22.2% respectively. Conclusions The temperature in the middle of the classroom in the non centralized heating area is lower than the standard, the relative humidity of classroom in the centralized heating area is lower than the standard，and the CO 2 in the classroom in winter is lower than the standard. It is recommended to install heating facilities in schools with low temperatures to increase the temperature and increase the frequency of ventilation in classrooms or adopt mechanical ventilation strategies to reduce CO 2 volume concentration.

Objective:To study the risk factors and the molecular epidemiology characteristics for Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae(CRE) colonization in neonatal inpatients in Shenzhen region, China, which provide reference for the prevention and control of clinical CRE infection.Methods:This study is a prospective case-control study.Anal samples from inpatients between January 2023 and December 2023 at Longgang Maternity and Child Institute of Shantou University Medical College and Shenzhen Children's Hospital were collected for screening CRE strain. Drug susceptibility test, modified Carbapenem Inactivation Method (mCIM) test, drug resistance-related gene sequencing and multilocus sequence typing (MLST) were performed for isolated CRE strains.Meanwhile, the clinical data were collected for analyzing the risk factors of CRE intestinal colonization by multivariate regression analysis.Results:A total of 1 517 patients were screened, 26 CRE(1.7%, 26/1 517) were identified which including 14 Escherichia coli(53.8%, 14/26), 11 Klebsiella pneumoniae(42.3%, 11/26), 1 Enterobacter cloacae(3.9%, 1/26). The predominant carbapenemase gene was New Delhi Metallo(NDM) (92.4%, 24/26), followed by Imipenem (IMP) (3.8%, 1/26) and Guiana extended spectrum gene (GES) (3.8%, 1/26).Among the carried NDM resistance genes, New Delhi Metallo 5 (NDM5) was the main one, accounting for 84.6% (22/26).The MLST typing of Escherichia coli was mainly Sequence Type 48 (ST48) (6/14), while that of Klebsiella pneumoniae was mainly Sequence Type 35 (ST35) (10/11). All CRE isolates were resistant to penicillin, penicillinase inhibitors, cephalosporins, ertapenem and imipenem.The resistance rates of Escherichia coli to amikacin, levofloxacin was 1/14, 4/14, respectively. All isolates of Klebsiella pneumoniae were sensitive to amikacin, and the resistance rate to levofloxacin is 1/11. Risk factors for CRE colonization include the older age, length of hospital stay, tracheal intubation, invasive respiration, lumbar puncture, Apgar <7 score, and exposure to antibiotics.Conclusions:NDM5 is the predominant resistant gene in CRE isolated from neonatal patients feces in Shenzhen region.It is necessary to strengthen the screening of CRE colonization in neonate for prevention and control of CRE infection.

Objective:To explore the causal relationship between gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and sleep disorder using Mendelian randomization (MR); To explore the diagnosis and treatment of sleep disorder with GERD by combining with the TCM theory that "gastric disharmony causing restless sleep".Methods:Genetic loci independent of each other and closely related to GERD were taken as instrumental variables by pooling data from a large-scale genome-wide association study. The causal relationship between GERD and sleep disorder was explored with Mendelian randomization methods, such as Inverse Variance Weighted (IVW), MR Egger, Weighted Median (WME), Simple Mode (SM), Weighted Mode (WM) and MR Multiple Effectiveness Residual Sum and Heteroscedasticity (MR-PRESSO) using OR as an evaluation index.Results:The results of the IVW method showed that GERD led to a 44.3% higher risk of developing sleep disorder ( P=4.96×10 -15, OR=1.443, 95% CI:1.317-1.582); horizontal pleiotropy was detected using the MR-Egger intercept, which was calculated to be P=0.646 ( P>0.05), proving that there was no horizontal pleiotropy in the results; Leave-one-out sensitivity test showed that the results were stable and there were no instrumental variables that strongly influenced the results. Conclusion:GRED is a risk factor for the development of sleep disorder, which is consistent with the TCM theory of "gastric disharmony causing restless sleep".

Background: SM-like (LSM) genes a family of RNA-binding proteins, are involved in mRNA regulation and can function as oncogenes by altering mRNA stability. However, their roles in B-cell progression and tumorigenesis remain poorly understood. Methods: We analyzed gene expression profiles and overall survival data of 123 patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL). The LSM index was developed to assess its potential as a prognostic marker of MCL survival. Results: Five of the eight LSM genes were identified as potential prognostic markers for survival in MCL, with particular emphasis on the LSM.index. The expression levels of these LSM genes demonstrated their potential utility as classifiers of MCL. The LSM.index-high group exhibited both poorer survival rates and lower RNA levels than did the overall transcript profile. Notably, LSM1 and LSM8 were overexpressed in the LSM.index-high group, with LSM1 showing 2.5-fold increase (p < 0.001) and LSM8 depicting 1.8-fold increase (p < 0.01) than those in the LSM.index-low group.Furthermore, elevated LSM gene expression was associated with increased cell division and RNA splicing pathway activity. Conclusions The LSM.index demonstrates potential as a prognostic marker for survival in patients with MCL. Elevated expression of LSM genes, particularly LSM1 and LSM8, may be linked to poor survival outcomes through their involvement in cell division and RNA splicing pathways. These findings suggest that LSM genes may contribute to the aggressive behavior of MCL and represent potential targets for therapeutic interventions.

Objective:To evaluate the post-marketing safety and immunogenicity of a 23-valent pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine (PPV23).Methods:From September 2020 to June 2021, a clinical trial of single-dose PPV23 was conducted in people ≥3 years old in Centers for Disease Control and Prevention of Guizhou, Hunan and Fujian provinces. Blood samples were collects from the subjects before and 30 d after vaccination. ELISA was used to quantitatively detect IgG antibodies against capsular polysaccharides of 23 Streptococcus pneumoniae serotypes in serum samples. The adverse events (AEs) were monitored within 7 d after vaccination. Results:A total of 409 subjects were enrolled and included in safety analysis. Except for one with antibody level inversion, the other 408 participants were included in immunogenicity analysis. The levels of antibodies against the 23 Streptococcus pneumoniae serotypes were all increased after vaccination by an average of 4.24 folds. The two-fold growth rates of the antibodies ranged from 51.72% to 96.81% with a total two-fold growth rate of 78.59%. The overall rate of AEs was 27.14% (111/409). Local AEs were mainly pain, induration, redness and swollen. No serious adverse events related to vaccination occurred. Conclusions:This study preliminarily demonstrated the good immunogenicity and safety of PPV23 vaccine.

OBJECTIVE Toobservetheeffectoftemozolomide(TMZ)incombinationwithtetran-drine(TET)on cell viability,colony formation,migration and cell apoptosis of human glioblastoma U87 cells.METHODS TheviabilityofU87cellstreatedwithTET(8-64μmol·L-1),TMZ(50-400 μmol·L-1 )and TMZ combined with TET (3.2,6.4 μmol·L-1 )was detected by cytotoxicity assays with Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8),the colony formation was detected by Giemsa staining,cell migration ability was detected by Transwell migration assay,cell apoptosis was assayed by flow cytometry using Annexin Ⅴ /PI double staining,and the expression of apoptosis-related proteins expression was detec-tedbyWesternblotting.RESULTS ThedataofCCK-8showedthatTET(r=0.903,P<0.05)orTMZ (r=0.995,P<0.05)could inhibit U87 cell viability alone in a concentration-dependent manner.The cell viability inhibition rate of U87 cells by TMZ co mbined with TET was higher than by TMZ or TET alone. Data showed that the effect of TMZ combined with TET was additive.TMZ 100 μmol·L-1 inhibited U87 cell colony formation and migration ablility compared with normal control.The inhibition rate of U87 cells by TMZ 100 μmol·L-1 combined with TET (3.2 and 6.4 μmol·L-1 )was more significant than by TMZ alone (P<0.05).Compared with TMZ alone,TMZ combined with TET (3.2 and 6.4 μmol·L-1 )signifi-cantly down-regulated the expression of anti-apoptotic protein Bcl-XL,but significantly up-regulated the expression of cleaved caspase 3 protein and cleaved poly(ADP-ribose)polymerase.CONCLUSION TET combined with TMZ can inhibit U87 cell viability,colony formation and migration by activating caspase-dependent apoptotic pathway,resulting in apoptosis.
