Objective To investigate the epidemiological characteristics of malaria and provide a basis for developing improved prevention and control measures. Methods Data were obtained from the Chinese Disease Prevention and Control Information System. Malaria surveillance data for Nanning City from January 1,2023, to December 31,2024, were exported from the Infectious Disease Reporting Information Management Subsystem. The characteristics of the two groups of malaria cases were compared. Results A total of 103 imported malaria cases were reported in Nanning City in 2024, representing a 38.32% decrease compared with the same period of the previous year. No statistically significant difference were observed between cases reported in 2023 and 2024 in terms of average age, gender ratio, proportion of parasite species, and monthly reporting distribution;however, statistically significant differences were found in the proportion of reporting areas and current residence areas(χ2= 13.572 and 10.355, respectively; P = 0.001 and 0.035, respectively). The proportion of cases reported in Shanglin County and the proportion of cases residing in Shanglin County were both lower than those during the same period of the previous year. Conclusions The high aggregation of imported malaria cases in Nanning City has decreased. Medical institutions in areas other than Shanglin County should strengthen their vigilance against malaria.

White matter hyperintensities(WMH)are abnormal high-signal manifestations in white matter areas on magnetic resonance T2-weighted or fluid-attenuated inversion recovery(FLAIR)sequences,with vasogenic WMH being the most common.Its pathological mechanism is related to cerebrovascular lesions and can lead to multi-dimensional brain functional impairments in cognition,movement,and emotions.Due to their unique working conditions,aircrews are more prone to vasogenic WMH than the general population.Moreover,with the widespread use of magnetic resonance imaging in cranial disease screening for aircrews,the detection rate of vasogenic WMH in aircrews has significantly increased.However,to date,no national or academic organization has issued standardized aviation medical assessment criteria for vasogenic WMH in aircrews.Therefore,led by Xijing Hospital of Air Force Medical University and the Chinese PLA General Hospital,a multi-disciplinary expert panel involved in aviation medicine,neurology,radiology,psychology,and related fields was assembled to formulate this consensus.The document integrates evidence from a systematic review of PubMed,CNKI,Wanfang Data,and VIP databases,incorporates existing WMH guidelines,and synthesizes clinical expertise from Chinese specialists.The consensus outlines three key domains:target population,neuroimaging protocols for vasogenic WMH screening,and clinical assessment and aeromedical identification for aircrews with vasogenic WMH.The aim is to provide evidence-based support and expert recommendations for standardizing and improving the accuracy of aviation medical evaluations of vasogenic WMH in aircrews.

This study analyzed the variations and evolution characteristics of influenza B Victoria(BV)virus in the Yellow River Delta region of China during 2021-2024.Throat swabs were collected from people with influenza-like illness(ILI)from 2021 to 2024 in Binzhou and Dongying,China.Viral isolation was performed,and 22 representative influenza BV isolates were selected for whole genome sequencing.Phylogenetic analysis of whole-genome sequences was performed in MegAlign and MEGA software.A total of 27 674 samples were obtained,and the overall positivity rate of influenza virus(A/H3N2,A/H1N1,BV)was 11.1％.Our surveillance data indicated that influenza B virus was detected in 2 years,which showed positivity rates of 28.2％and 1.7％,respectively.Statistically significant differences in the positivity rates of influenza BV viruses were observed(x2=3 641.791,P＜0.001).The median pairwise sequence identities ranged from 98.7％to 99.3％for eight segments of 22 viral sequences.The isolates for the monitoring years 2021-2024 were located in clades V1A.3a.1 and V1A.3a.2.Intra-lineage reassortments were discovered in B/shandongbincheng17/2022.The NA gene of one isolate exhibited an increase in the 488NLTV N-glycoproteome site.The K338R mutation occurred in the PA gene.Three locus deletion or insertion mutations occurred in the MP gene.The BV influenza epidemic was prevalent every other year;the intensity ranged from strong to weak;and the duration ranged from long to short in the Yellow River Delta region of China during 2021-2022.Influ-enza B virus formed intra-lineage reassortments,and showed significant mutations in NA gene,PA gene,and MP gene.

This study aims to investigate the effects of aerobic exercise on neuroinflammation in AD mice and explore the mechanisms of neuroinflammation regulated by the blood-brain barrier,lipopolysaccharide(LPS)displacement,and glial cell activation.Twenty 3-month-old male APP/PS1 double transgenic mice were used,which were randomly divided into a sedentary group(SE-AD)and an aerobic exercise group(Run-AD),and 10 3-month-old male C57BL/6 mice were used as the control group(WT).The Run-AD group underwent 12 weeks of aerobic training.The results of the water maze showed that aerobic exercise improved the learning and memory capacity of AD mice(P＜0.05).The results of H&E stai-ning and Nissl staining showed that aerobic exercise reduced necrotic cells and inflammatory cell infiltra-tion in the cerebral cortex,as well as nuclear condensation in the CA1 and GD regions of the hippocam-pus(P＜0.05,P＜0.01),and increased the area of Nissl bodies in the cerebral cortex and hippocam-pal CA3 and DG regions.Western blotting and ELISA results showed that aerobic exercise increased the expression of Occludin,ZO-1 and Claudin-5 proteins in the brain(P＜0.01),and decreased the levels of LPS in the brain(P＜0.01).The qRT-PCR results exhibited that aerobic exercise decreased the ex-pression of TLR4,MyD88,NF-κB,IL-1β,and TNF-α mRNA(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).The results of immunofluorescence staining revealed that aerobic exercise reduced the fluorescence area of brain IL-1βand TNF-α proteins(P＜0.05,P＜0.01),as well as the fluorescence area of Iba-1,GFAP,and TLR4 proteins in the cerebral cortex and hippocampus(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).There was a high degree of overlap between Iba-1 and TLR4 fluorescence in the cerebral cortex,and GFAP was localized around Iba-1.In summary,aerobic exercise attenuates neuroinflammation in AD mice by protecting the blood-brain barrier,reducing the displacement of LPS,and subsequently weakening the immune activation of microglia to regulate the TLR4/MyD88/NF-κB signaling pathway to alleviate neuroinflammation.

Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy and safety of facilitated percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI)with half-dose recombinant staphylokinase(r-SAK)in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction(STEMI)who are expected to undergo PCI within 120 minutes.Methods From October 2021 to August 2022,a total of 200 STEMI patients in eight centers were included and randomly assigned in a 1﹕1 ratio to either r-SAK group or control group.Patients received loading doses of aspirin and ticagrelor and intravenous heparin and were randomized to receive an intravenous bolus of either 5 mg r-SAK or normal saline prior to PCI.The outcomes were set as ST-segment resolution(STR)at 60-90 minutes after PCI,the proportion and transition of pathological Q waves on the 5th day after PCI,and the proportion of high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T(hs-cTnT)peaking within 12 hours of onset.The safety outcome was major bleeding events defined as Bleeding Academic Research Consortium(BARC)≥type 3 bleeding during hospitalization.Results Compared with the control group,the r-SAK group had a higher proportion of STR≥70%within 60-90 minutes after PCI(58.3%vs.40.3%,P=0.009);a lower proportion of pathological Q waves(59.1%vs.74.1%,P=0.040);a lower rate of Q wave progression(14.8%vs.43.2%,P＜0.001);a higher rate of Q wave disappearance(12.5%vs.3.7%,P=0.027);and a higher proportion of hs-cTnT peaking within 12 hours of symptom onset[31/40(77.5%)vs.17/33(51.5%),P=0.027].Regarding the safety outcome,no significant difference in BARC≥type 3 bleeding was found between the two groups during hospitalization(P＞0.05).Conclusions For STEMI patients who were expected to undergo primary PCI within 120 minutes of symptom onset,the facilitated PCI with half-dose r-SAK significantly increased the proportion of STR≥70%at 60-90 minutes after PCI,reduced the formation of pathological Q waves,and shortened the time to peak hs-cTnT,without increasing the risk of bleeding,which should be an alternative reperfusion strategy worthy of further study.
