ObjectiveTo evaluate the public health governance capacity in Jiangsu Province and provide an optimized pathway for the construction of a “strong, rich, beautiful, and high-quality” new Jiangsu. MethodsA total of 806 policy documents, 658 public information reports, and 148 research literatures related to public health governance capacity in Jiangsu Province from January 1995 to December 2023 were collected. The status of current public health goverance was assessed based on the evaluation criteria suitable for public health systems, and the strengths and the weaknesses of the system were identified. ResultsThe public health governance capability of Jiangsu Province was scored at 738.3 points, ranking 3rd nationally. Maternal health care and emergency response capacities achieved leading positions nationwide, both ranking 2nd. Jiangsu had exhibited a standardized guidance in the strategic level, a well-established management mechanism, an extensive coverage in information collection, and a scientifically established health targets setting. However, bottlenecks remained, including an unclear division of responsibilities across organizational departments, an insufficient public-health workforce, the absence of a stable growth mechanism for government funding investment, and difficulties in promptly identifying public needs. ConclusionJiangsu’s public-health system demonstrates leading nationally, yet several components remain underdeveloped. Future efforts should consolidate advantages while addressing weaknesses, further diversify content and forms, establish a stable funding increase mechanism, and clarify departmental functions, thereby providing solid health support for realizing the developmental goals of a “strong, rich, beautiful and high-quality” new Jiangsu.

Disorders of mitochondrial dynamics are closely re-lated to the development of neurodegenerative diseases(NDDs),which are characterized by the loss of neurons in brain and spinal cord cells.Diseases such as Alzheimer's disease,Parkinson's disease,Huntington's disease,and so on are in-volved in NDDs,which are often accompanied by disorders of mi-tochondrial dynamics during the development of these diseases.Recently,the researches on mitochondrial dynamics to study the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative diseases and related medica-tion innovation have garnered significant attention.This review focuses on the fundamental molecular processes of mitochondrial dynamics,such as mitochondrial transport,mitochondrial autoph-agy,and mitochondrial fission-fusion,and their molecular mecha-nisms in the pathogenesis of NDDs.It also outlines the recent research progress on Chinese materia medica and natural prod-ucts in ameliorating NDDs by modulating mitochondrial dynam-ics.The aim is to establish a foundation for researching innova-tive traditional Chinese medicine for NDDs-related diseases by focusing on mitochondrial dynamics.

Plutonium isotopes(238Pu,239Pu,240Pu and 241Pu)in the environment are important"fingerprint"nuclides in the study of nuclear activity traceability.The content of plutonium isotopes in the environmental metrics is usually very low,and the measurement of these isotopes,especially 238Pu,using mass spectrometry is seriously interfered with by the coexisting 238U.The analysis of several plutonium isotopes in soil usually requires combination of multiple measurement techniques,which leads to a long analysis time and large uncertainty in the isotope ratio.In this work,the hydrous titanium oxide(HTiO)precipitated by the hydrolysis of titanium oxydichloride(TiOCl2)under near-neutral condition was used to preconcentrate plutonium from the soil digestion solution,and the highly efficient decontamination of 238U in the sample was achieved by TK200 resin column chromatography with a decontamination factor of 108.Simulation resuts of density functional theory(DFT)showed that NH3 was considered as a promising reaction gas to eliminate the interference of 238U from 238Pu measurement using mass spectrometry due to the significant discrepancy of the chemical reactivity of U+and Pu+with the reactive gas NH3.Experiments confirmed that by optimizing the flow rates of collision gas(He)and reaction gas(NH3),the interference of 238U could be effectively suppressed,and the decontamination factor of 238U was 104.Combined with chemical separation,the overall decontamination factor of 238U could reach 1012 by using the developed method.By combining chemical separation and tandem quadrupole inductively coupled plasmon-mass spectrometry(ICP-MS/MS)measurement,the simultaneous determination of four ultra-trace plutonium isotopes in soil was realized,and the detection limit of plutonium isotopes was at the femtogram level.Analysis of the international standard reference materials(NIST-SRM-4357 and IAEA-384)showed that the established method could be successfully used for the accurate analysis of ultra-trace four plutonium isotopes(238Pu,239Pu,240Pu and 241Pu)in soil samples.

Objective To establish a highly sensitive and specific method for detecting human DNA based on real time quantitative PCR(qPCR)technique for the rapid detection of potential DNA con-tamination sources in DNA laboratories.Methods Primers and probes were designed with Primer Ex-pressTM software using the reference sequence of human 18S rRNA gene as a template,and the opti-mal prime-probe combination was screened by matrix method.The PCR products of the target se-quence of human 18S rRNA gene were used to construct the plasmid,and a plasmid standard was used to draw the standard curve of the qPCR system.According to the Minimum Information for Pub-lication of Quantitative Real-time PCR Experiments(MIQE)guidelines,the specificity,sensitivity,re-peatability and application effect of the qPCR system were evaluated.Results The sensitivity of the qPCR system established in this study was 5.3×10-5 ng/μL,which showed good specificity for human DNA samples.The correlation coefficient of the qPCR system was-0.999,and amplification efficiency was 100％.Both the intra-batch and inter-batch variation coefficients were less than 2％.Conclusion The established human DNA detection method based on qPCR technique has good specificity,high sen-sitivity,and robust stability.It can be used for rapid detection of DNA contamination and daily moni-toring of the accumulated human DNA in the laboratory environment.

OBJECTIVE: Cancer remains a significant global health challenge, necessitating the development of effective treatment approaches. Developing synergistic therapy can provide a highly promising strategy for anti-cancer treatment through combining the benefits of various mechanisms. METHODS: In this study, we developed a synergistic strategy for chemo-photothermal therapy by constructing nanocomposites using gold nanorods (GNRs) and tetrahedral framework nucleic acids (tFNA) loaded with the anti-tumor drug doxorubicin (DOX). RESULTS: Our in vitro studies have systematically clarified the anti-cancer behaviors of tFNA-DOX@GNR nanocomposites, characterized by their enhanced cellular uptake and proficient lysosomal escape capabilities. It was found that the key role of tFNA-DOX@GNR nanocomposites in tumor ablation is primarily due to their capacity to induce cytotoxicity in tumor cells via a photothermal effect, which generates instantaneous high temperatures. This mechanism introduces various responses in tumor cells, facilitated by the thermal effect and the integrated chemotherapeutic action of DOX. These reactions include the induction of endoplasmic reticulum stress, characterized by elevated reactive oxygen species levels, the promotion of apoptotic cell death, and the suppression of tumor cell proliferation. CONCLUSION This work exhibits the potential of synergistic therapy utilizing nanocomposites for cancer treatment and offers a promising avenue for future therapeutic strategies.

OBJECTIVE: This study explored the job choice preferences of Center for Disease Prevention and Control (CDC) workers to provide CDC management information and recommendations for optimizing employee retention and motivation policies. METHODS: A discrete choice experiment was conducted in nine provinces across China. Seven key attributes were identified to analyze the job preferences of CDC workers. Mixed logit models, latent class models, and policy simulation tools were used. RESULTS: A valid sample of 5,944 cases was included in the analysis. All seven attributes significantly influenced the job choices of CDC workers. Heterogeneity analyses identified two main groups based on different levels of preference for attribute utility. Income-prioritizers were concerned with income and opportunities for career development, whereas bianzhi-prioritizers were concerned with bianzhi and welfare benefits. The policy simulation analysis revealed that income-prioritizers had a relatively higher sensitivity to multiple job preference incentives. CONCLUSION Income and bianzhi were the two key attributes influencing the job choices and retention preferences of CDC workers. Heterogeneity in job preferences was also identified. Based on the preference characteristics of different subgroups, policy content should be skewed to differentiate the importance of incentives.

Acute lateral ankle sprain (ALAS) is one of the most common sport injuries, with high incidence, recurrence and disability rates. Currently, exercise rehabilitation-based non-surgical treatment is the primary management approach for ALAS. However, there remain improper practices such as excessive immobilization or uncontrolled activity, which contribute to recurrent sprains and chronic ankle instability, significantly impairing patients′ athletic function and quality of life. To standardize the non-surgical management of ALAS, improve the cure rates, and reduce the recurrence and disability rates, Chinese Sports Rehabilitation Medicine Training Project of Chinese Medical Association, Foot and Ankle Basics and Orthopedics Group, Orthopedic Branch of Chinese Medical Doctor Association, and Sports Medicine Branch of Jiangsu Medical Association organized relevant experts to formulate Expert consensus on non-surgical treatment for acute lateral ankle sprain ( version 2025), following the principles of scientific vigor, practicality, and innovation. Thirteen recommendations were proposed for standardized treatment protocols across different healing phases, aiming to provide references for standard management of ALAS and improve the therapeutic outcomes.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of daratumumab in treating patients with monoclonal immunoglobulin deposition disease (MIDD) with renal injury.Methods:A case-series analysis study was conducted in MIDD patients with renal injury who received daratumumab treatment at the Department of Nephrology, Ruijin Hospital, affiliated to Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine, from December 2021 to October 2023. The clinical data of patients at the time of diagnosis and during the follow-up period were collected. Hematological and renal responses were assessed and adverse reaction events were recorded.Results:Seven patients diagnosed with MIDD were included in this study, with a male-to-female ratio of 5∶2 and age of 46 (43, 52) years. One patient was light-heavy chain deposition disease, and the remaining 6 patients were light chain deposition disease. Among them, 5 patients had received prior treatment (1-2 lines of treatment with the regimen of cyclophosphamide, bortezomib and dexamethasone), while 2 patients were newly treated, one of whom had already started hemodialysis at diagnosis. Prior to receiving monoclonal antibody treatment, difference of serum free light chain (dFLC) among the 7 patients was 52 (7, 295) mg/L. Excluding 1 patient on dialysis, the remaining 6 patients had 24-hour urinary protein of 1.1 (0.2, 4.7) g, serum creatinine of 178.5 (157.8, 279.8) μmol/L and estimated glomerular filtration rate of 33.9 (24.2, 41.1) ml·min -1·（1.73 m 2） -1. The daratumumab treatment was 17 (10, 20) infusions, with treatment duration of 17 (9, 23) months and follow-up time of 24 (13, 32) months. After treatment, among 5 previously treated patients, hematological response evaluation showed that 1 patient with baseline dFLC <20 mg/L and minimal residual disease negativity upon re-examination, while the remaining 4 patients achieved hematological responses of complete response or better. Renal response evaluation revealed that, except for 1 patient with partial response, the other 4 patients achieved very good partial response (VGPR) or better. Among 2 newly diagnosed patients, both achieved hematological efficacy at least VGPR, with one achieving renal complete response, while the other one remaining dialysis- dependent. Overall, dFLC of 7 patients was 4.9 (2.1, 11.5) mg/L. Among 6 non-dialysis patients, 24-hour urinary protein was 0.19 (0.06, 0.42) g, serum creatinine was 153.0 (120.8, 188.0) μmol/L and estimated glomerular filtration rate was 40.4 (35.2, 57.3) ml·min -1·(1.73 m 2) -1. No severe adverse reactions were observed during daratumumab treatment. Conclusion:The application of daratumumab in the treatment of MIDD with renal injury is effective and well tolerated, achieving high-quality hematological responses, with high renal responses reaching or exceeding VGPR and improvement of renal function.

Objective:To investigate the clinical value of continuous Bougie tube use in symmetrical three-port laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG).Methods:The retrospective cohort study was conducted. The clinical data of 105 patients who underwent symmetrical three-port LSG at The First Hospital of Shanxi Medical University from October 2021 to October 2024 were collected. There were 57 males and 48 females, aged 27(range, 19-59)years. Of the 105 patients, 52 cases with continuous Bougie tube use during the surgery were divided into continuous group, while 53 cases with intermittent Bougie tube use were divided into intermittent group. Observation indicators: (1) surgical situations; (2) complications. Comparison of measurement data with normal distribution between groups was conducted using the independent sample t test. Comparison of measurement data with skewed distribution between groups was conducted using the Mann-Whitney U test. Comparison of count data between groups was conducted using the chi-square test. Results:(1) Surgical situations. All 105 patients underwent symmetrical three-port LSG. The operation time was (57±4)minutes versus (76±4)minutes for the continuous group and the intermittent group, volume of intraoperative blood loss was (26±6)mL versus (59±9)mL, time to first out-of-bed activities was (218±8)minutes versus (299±9)minutes, time to first anal exhaust was (19.6±2.9)hours versus (25.8±2.8)hours, visual analogue scale score for pain at 6 hours postoperatively was 2.3±1.0 versus 4.7±1.0, and duration of postoperative hospital stay was (1.5±0.6)days versus (3.1±0.9)days for the two groups, respectively. There were significant differences in the above indicators between the two groups( t=26.92, 22.31, 48.91, 11.15, 13.25, 10.21, P<0.05). (2) Complications. No severe postopera-tive complication occurred in any of the 105 patients. There were 26 cases and 38 cases with nausea and vomiting at 2 hours postoperatively, showing a significant difference between them ( χ2=5.19, P<0.05). Conclusion:Compared to intermittent Bougie tube use, continuous Bougie tube use during symmetrical three-port LSG can significantly shorten operation time and duration of postoperative hospital stay, reduce intraoperative bleeding and postoperative pain, accelerate recovery of patients, and lower the incidence of complications.

Objective:To study the current situation of the operating room nurses′ flourishing, and to explore the mediating role of self-compassion between forgiveness and flourishing, so as to provide a basis for improving the level of flourishing of operating room nurses.Methods:From September to November 2023, a total of 1 182 operating room nurses from 20 hospitals in Henan province were investigated by convenient sampling method. General data questionnaire, the Heartland Forgiveness Scale, Self-Compassion Scale and the Flourishing Scale were used to conduct an online cross-sectional survey. The mediating role of self-compassion in the relationship between forgiveness and flourishing was analyzed.Results:A total of 1 182 valid questionnaires were collected, including 261 males and 921 females. The age ranged from 21 to 54 (33.21 ± 5.72) years. In operating room nurses, the score of the forgiveness was (111.88 ± 18.77) points, the score of the self-compassion was (76.60 ± 10.75) points, the score of the flourishing was (43.48 ± 8.72) points. Forgiveness was positively correlated with self-warmth and flourishing ( r=0.545, 0.590, both P<0.05), forgiveness was negatively correlated with self-cold ( r=-0.365, P<0.05). The flourishing was positively correlated with self-warmth ( r=0.608, P<0.05), and negatively correlated with self-cold ( r=-0.509, P<0.05). self-warmth and self-cold played a mediating role between forgiveness and flourishing. The indirect effects of self-warmth and self-cold were 23.97% and 20.93% of the total mediating effects. Conclusions:The level of flourishing of the operating room nurses is at a relatively high level. Nurses′ forgiveness can affect their flourishing directly as well as indirectly through self-warmth and self-cold.
