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.

ObjectiveTo systematically assess the public health governance capacity in Zhejiang Province, to conduct an in-depth analysis of its strengths and weaknesses, so as to provide scientific basis and strategic recommendations for further enhancement. MethodsA systematic collection of policy documents, public information reports, and research literature related to public health governance capacity in Zhejiang Province from 2002 to 2023 was conducted (encompassing a total of 1 263 policy documents, 138 pieces of information reports and 631 research articles). Based on the evaluation criteria suitable for public health systems previously developed by the research team, the basic status and magnitude of change in public health governance capacity in Zhejiang Province was evaluated. Additionally, normative gap analyses were employed to identify the strengths and weaknesses. ResultsZhejiang Province ranked 4th nationwide in terms of public health governance capacity with a score of 733.4 points (1 000.0-point maximum). The province has effectively implemented the principle of health first (scoring 698.5 points in the assessment of health-first strategy implementation) and attached sufficient importance to health-related goals (scoring 658.2 points in the scientific rationality of goal setting). However, the implementation of inter-departmental coordination and incentive mechanisms only scored 178.7 points, the feasibility of management and monitoring mechanisms scored even lower at only 144.0 points, and the coverage of incentive mechanisms scored 286.0 points. ConclusionZhejiang Province has effectively implemented its health first strategy and attached great importance to health targets, but still needs to strengthen cross-departmental coordination mechanisms and health-oriented incentives.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the effect and mechanism of modified Lichong decoction （MLCD） on the apoptosis of transplanted tumor cells in nude mice. METHODS Human gastric cancer AGS cells were cultured， and a nude mice transplanted tumor model was established. The nude mice were divided into the model group and MLCD low-， medium- and high-dose groups （150， 300， 600 mg/kg）. They were given distilled water or the corresponding drug solution by gavage once daily for four consecutive weeks. The size of transplanted tumors in nude mice was measured every six days， and the tumor volume was calculated. After the medication， the nude mice were sacrificed， and the transplanted tumor tissues were isolated. The contents of lactate dehydrogenase （LDH） and reactive oxygen species （ROS） in the transplanted tumor tissues were detected， and the changes in mitochondrial membrane potential were assessed. The pathological morphological changes were observed. The enzymatic activities of caspase-3， caspase-8， and caspase-9， as well as protein expressions of Fas and FasL and mRNA expressions of caspase-3， caspase-8， caspase-9， Fas and FasL in the transplanted tumor tissues， were detected. RESULTS Compared with the model group， the volume of transplanted tumors in nude mice from all MLCD dose groups was reduced to varying degrees. The contents of LDH and ROS， as well as the enzymatic activities of caspase-3， caspase-8 and caspase-9， were significantly increased/enhanced. The mitochondrial membrane potential was significantly decreased. The protein expressions of Fas and FasL， and the mRNA expressions of caspase-3， caspase-8， caspase-9， Fas and FasL were significantly up-regulated. Most of these differences were statistically significant （ P ＜0.05 or P ＜0.01）. Pathological results showed that with increasing doses of MLCD， the cellular density in the transplanted tumor tissues gradually decreased， and typical morphological features of apoptosis， such as loosening and increasing fragmentation， became more prominent. CONCLUSIONS MLCD can induce apoptosis in transplanted tumor cells of nude mice， and its mechanism may be related to the activation of the Fas/FasL pathway and the caspase apoptotic pathway.

This consensus was developed by the Orthodontic Society of the Chinese Stomatological Association to provide a systematic, scientific, and practical guideline for informed consent in orthodontic care. Orthodontic treatment is typically lengthy, highly individualized, and involves multiple factors such as growth and development, occlusal function, and facial esthetics. Rapid technological advances and diverse risk profiles make the traditional reliance on orthodontist experience or institutional templates insufficient to ensure patients′ full understanding and autonomous decision-making. To address this, the expert panel conducted extensive reviews of domestic and international guidelines, analyzed representative dispute cases, and performed multicenter patient-clinician surveys. Using a multi-round Delphi method, the group established a standardized informed consent framework covering the initial consultation, treatment, and retention phases. The consensus emphasizes that informed consent is not only a fundamental legal and ethical requirement but also a key step in building trust, improving patient compliance, and enhancing treatment satisfaction. Orthodontists should clearly and comprehensively explain treatment plans, potential risks, uncertainties, and associated costs, while respecting the autonomy of patients or guardians, and maintain continuous communication and dynamic evaluation throughout the treatment process. The release of this consensus provides unified and authoritative guidance for clinical orthodontics, helping to standardize informed consent, enhance its transparency, safeguard patient rights, reduce medical risks, and promote high-quality, sustainable development of orthodontic practice.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of nebulized inhalation of recombinant human interferon (IFN) α1b injection in the treatment of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) associated lower respiratory tract infections (pneumonia and bronchiolitis) in children.Methods:A randomized, double-blind, parallel, placebo-controlled add-on design was used.Children with pneumonia or bronchiolitis aged 2 months to 5 years who tested positive for RSV antigen within 72 hours of onset from 30 clinical trial sites including Beijing Children′s Hospital, Capital Medical University between February 2021 and December 2022 were included in this study and randomly divided into 2 groups at a ratio of 1∶1 based on a stratified-block method.Both groups received basic treatments such as cough control, asthma relieving, expectorant treatment, fever reduction, oxygen therapy, etc.The experimental group received additional nebulized inhalation of IFN α1b injection at a dose of 2.0 μg/(kg·time), twice a day.The control group received nebulized inhalation of placebo twice a day.Clinical efficacy was evaluated based on indicators such as the duration of clinical symptoms and signs, and the Kaplan-Meier method was used to calculate the median and 95% CI of the duration of clinical symptoms and signs.The Log-rank test was used to compared data between groups.Safety was assessed through the incidence of adverse reactions and laboratory tests, and the Chi-square test was used to analyze the difference between groups. Results:There were 123 children in the experimental group and 122 children in the control group.The median durations of all the 5 clinical symptoms and signs [including shortness of breath, wheezing, dyspnea (visible retractions), decreased transcutaneous oxygen saturation, and abnormal mental state] in the experimental group after treatment were slightly shortened than those in the control group [2.7 d(95% CI: 1.9-3.0 d)] vs.[2.9 d(95% CI: 2.6-3.6 d), P=0.027].The improvement in dyspnea (retractions) was especially pronounced in the experimental group, with a relief rate of 50.0% (0, 100%) on the first day of administration[compared with 0 (0, 50.0%) in the control group ( Z=2.002, P=0.025)].The median duration of dyspnea in the experimental group was nearly 1 day shorter than that in the control group [1.0 d(95% CI: 0.7-1.7 d) vs.1.8 d(95% CI: 1.0-2.5 d), P=0.046].There were no significant difference in hospital stay [6.0(5.0, 8.0) d vs.6.5(5.0, 8.0) d, Z=0.675, P=0.500], oxygen therapy duration [32.0(14.0, 96.3) h vs.39.0 (24.0, 83.2) h, Z=0.094, P=0.925], the recovery rate from clinical symptoms during treatment [(105/106, 99.1%) vs.(96/101, 95.0%)], and recurrence rate [(0/106, 0) vs.(2/101, 2.0%)] between the 2 groups (all P>0.05).However, the above-mentioned four indicators in the experimental group showed a trend of clinical benefits.The quantitative virus detection results showed that the RSV viral load in both groups decreased after treatment compared to before treatment.After 2 days of treatment, the decline rate of RSV viral load from the baseline was 0.90 lg copies/(mL·d) in the experimental group and 0.25 lg copies/(mL·d)in the control group, with a statistically significant difference ( P<0.05).Furthermore, there was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions between the 2 groups ( P>0.05).Importantly, no drug-related serious adverse reactions occurred in both groups. Conclusions:The nebulized inhalation therapy of IFN α1b demonstrates efficacy and safety in treating pediatric RSV associated lower respiratory tract infections.It particularly offers outstanding clinical therapeutic value for severe children.

Objective:To investigate the characteristics of cardiopulmonary exercise testing and risk factors for decreased aerobic capacity in children with non-acute asthma exacerbations, to assess their cardiopulmonary health and to provide a basis for improvement.Methods:A case-control study.Sixty-one children with non-acute asthma exacerbations treated at the Outpatient Department of Children′s Hospital of Soochow University from October 2022 to December 2023 and 22 control children during the same period were included.Binary Logistic regression was employed to assess risk factors for decreased aerobic capacity in children with asthma.Results:Among the included 61 children with non-acute asthma exacerbations, there were 33 cases in the chronic persistent phase (chronic persistent phase group) and 28 in the clinical remission phase(clinical remission group).There were 22 children in the control group.During the peak exercise phase of the cardiopulmonary exercise testing, the mean kilogram body weight oxygen uptake (VO 2/kg), the percentage of predicted kilogram body weight oxygen uptake, and metabolic equivalents (Met) in the chronic persistent phase group were lower than those in the control and clinical remission phase groups.The mean VO 2/kg recovery from the cardiopulmonary exercise testing in the first minute in the chronic persistent phase group was lower than that in the control and clinical remission phase groups.The median Met and ventilation per minute recovery in the chronic persistent phase group were lower than those in the control group.The median heart rate recovery in asthma children was lower than that in control children.The percentage of cardiopulmonary exercise testing abnormalities was higher in asthma children with symptoms after excise than that in asthma children without symptoms after excise.The percentage of decreased ventilation efficiency in asthma children with symptoms after excise was higher than that in asthma children without symptoms after excise.Multivariate regression analysis showed that a higher body mass index (BMI) ( OR=1.577, 95% CI: 1.113-2.235, P=0.010) and a higher peak respiratory reserve ( OR=1.103, 95% CI: 1.018-1.195, P=0.017) were risk factors of decreased aerobic capacity.The risk of decreased aerobic capacity in the chronic persistent phase was 7.949 times higher than that in the clinical remission phase ( OR=7.949, 95% CI: 1.290-48.996, P=0.025). Conclusions:The aerobic capacity is decreased and ventilatory recovery is slower in children with chronic persistent asthma than those in healthy children.The heart rate recovery in asthma children is slower than that in healthy children.A high BMI, a high peak respiratory reserve, and chronic persistence of asthma are independent risk factors for decreased aerobic capacity in children with non-acute asthma exacerbations.asthma.

This study aims to investigate the protective effect of naringenin(Nar)on cadmium(Cd)-induced liver injury in chickens and its regulatory role in endoplasmic reticulum stress(ERS)and autophagy.Forty-eight 1-day-old Hyland Brown egg roosters were divided into four groups:The control group,the Cd group(150 mg/kg CdCl2),the Nar group(250 mg/kg Nar),and the Cd+Nar group(150 mg/kg CdCl2+250 mg/kg Nar),and the rearing period was 60 days.On the 60th day,6 chickens were randomly selected from each group,and after fasting for 24 hours,blood was collected via vein and then removed from the neck and executed,the livers were collected and organ coefficients were calculated,changes in the content of liver function-related indexes were de-termined,pathological sections were made and observed,and the expression of mRNA and protein of related genes were detected by fluorescence quantitative PCR and Western blot method.The re-sults showed that Cd treatment resulted in a highly significant decrease(P＜0.01)in body mass,a highly significant increase(P＜0.01)in liver coefficient,a highly significant increase(P＜0.01)in serum levels of alanine aminotransferase(ALT),aspartate aminotransferase(AST),and lactate dehydrogenase(LDH)levels were highly significantly increased(P＜0.01),hepatic antioxidant capacity was highly significantly reduced(P＜0.01),and ERS-related genes(GRP-78,PERK,eIF-2α,CHOP,ATF-4,ATF-6)and autophagy-related genes(Atg-5,Beclin-1,LC3)mRNA expression was highly significantly up-regulated(P＜0.01),and the expression of mRNA for p62 was highly significantly reduced(P＜0.01).After the addition of Nar,Cd-induced liver injury was significantly alleviated,liver function indexes improved,hepatic antioxidant capacity was highly significantly el-evated(P＜0.01),mRNA expression of ERS-related genes(GRP-78,PERK,eIF-2α,CHOP,ATF-4,ATF-6)and autophagy-related genes(Atg-5,Beclin-1,LC3)was highly significantly decreased(P＜0.01)and mRNA expression of P62 was highly significantly increased(P＜0.01).This study suggests that Nar has potential in alleviating Cd-induced liver damage in chickens through the reg-ulation of ERS and autophagy,providing theoretical support for its application in livestock health.
