Background Sunshine duration is closely associated with population mental health and emotional states, although its relationship with mental and behavioral disorders (MBD) remains insufficiently studied. Objective To analyze the effect of sunshine duration on hospital admissions for MBD in Zigong City, Sichuan Province. Methods Hospital admission records for MBD from 10 medical institutions, meteorological data, and ambient air pollutant concentrations were collected in Zigong City from January 1, 2019 to December 31, 2024. A distributed lag non-linear model (DLNM) was employed to calculate single-day and cumulative lag effects of different sunshine duration exposures—0 h (P₀, P₅, P₂₅), 6 h (P₇₅), and 10.4 h (P₉₅)—on hospitalization risks for MBD, stratified by diagnostic category, sex, and age groups. Results This study analyzed 36597 hospital admissions for MBD in Zigong City. The exposure-response curve for sunshine duration at lag 0 d exhibited an inverted N-shaped pattern, with minimum relative risk (RR) of hospitalizations observed at 14 h sunshine duration. The immediate effects of different levels of sunshine duration on the hospitalization risk for MBD, schizophrenia, schizotypal and delusional disorders (SSDD), and neurotic, stress-related and somatoform disorders (NSSD) were significant, with the cumulative effect peaking at lags 12–13 days. For extremely short sunshine duration 0 h, the maximum relative risk (RR) values (with 95% confidence intervals, 95%CI) of hospitalization risk were 1.209 (1.001, 1.459) at lag 1 d for SSDD patients and 1.398 (1.133, 1.724) at lag 0 d for NSSD patients, respectively. The cumulative effect on hospitalization risk induced by short sunshine duration 6 h was higher than that induced by extremely short sunshine duration 0 h and long sunshine duration 10.4 h. Among populations stratified by gender and age, male patients and those aged over 70 years had higher hospitalization risks. For short sunshine duration 6 h, the cumulative RR (CRR) value (95%CI) of hospitalization risk for male MBD patients was 3.373 (1.362, 8.358) at cumulative lag 0–12 d, which was higher than that for female patients [2.943 (1.471, 5.889) at cumulative lag 0–13 d]. The population aged over 70 years was more sensitive to single-day and cumulative lag effects on hospitalization risk than other age groups. For short sunshine duration 6 h, the RR and CRR values (95%CI) of single-day and cumulative lag effects on hospitalization risk were 1.336 (1.002, 1.783) at lag 0 day and 5.085 (1.680, 15.392) at cumulative lag 0–12 d, respectively. At lag 13 d, long sunshine duration 10.4 h exposure was associated with depression hospitalizations in patients <20 years with RR=1.127 (95%CI: 1.002, 1.270). Conclusion When the daily sunshine duration is less than 14 h, it will increase the hospitalization risk of MBD in the population to varying degrees, with both single-day and cumulative lag effects. It is recommended that the public, especially vulnerable groups such as people with MBD aged 70 years and above and those with depression under 20 years, strengthen health protection to reduce the health risks caused by changes in sunshine.

Olfactory receptors (ORs) form the largest superfamily of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). Traditionally recognized for their role in the nasal olfactory epithelium, where they mediate the sense of smell, accumulating evidence has firmly established their ectopic expression in non-olfactory tissues, including the intestine, lungs, and kidneys. The intestine, as the primary site for nutrient digestion and absorption, harbors a highly complex chemical environment. To adapt to this environment, the gut employs a sophisticated network of “chemosensors” to monitor luminal contents and maintain homeostasis. Among these sensors, intestinal ORs have emerged as crucial functional components, serving as a molecular bridge that connects environmental chemical signals—such as food-derived odorants—to specific physiological responses. This discovery has significantly deepened our understanding of how dietary flavors and compounds influence intestinal physiology at the molecular level. This review systematically summarizes the expression profiles, ligand classification, and biological functions of ORs within the gastrointestinal tract. Studies indicate that intestinal ORs exhibit distinct spatial distribution patterns across different gut segments and display cell-type specificity, particularly within enterocytes and enteroendocrine cells. These receptors function as versatile sensors capable of recognizing a wide variety of ligands, including exogenous dietary components, gut microbiota metabolites such as short-chain fatty acids, and endogenous small molecules like azelaic acid. Upon activation by specific ligands, intestinal ORs trigger intracellular signaling cascades, primarily involving the AC-cAMP-PKA pathway or calcium influx channels. A major focus of this review is to elucidate the molecular mechanisms by which these receptors regulate the secretion of gut hormones. Activation of specific ORs in enteroendocrine cells has been shown to stimulate the release of hormones such as glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1), peptide YY (PYY), and serotonin (5-HT), thereby modulating systemic energy metabolism, glucose homeostasis, and gastrointestinal motility. Furthermore, the review addresses the critical roles of ORs in immune regulation and pathology. Evidence suggests that specific ORs contribute to the maintenance of intestinal immune homeostasis and may offer protection against inflammation. Beyond their involvement in inflammatory responses, ORs such as Olfr78 have been shown to regulate the differentiation and function of intestinal endocrine cells. Similarly, Olfr544 has been demonstrated to alleviate intestinal inflammation by remodeling the gut microbiome and metabolome. These findings collectively suggest that specific ORs hold promise as therapeutic targets for mitigating intestinal inflammation and maintaining gut homeostasis. Additionally, the review explores the emerging role of ORs in cancer. Although OR expression is often downregulated in tumor tissues compared to normal mucosa, activation of specific ORs by certain ligands can inhibit tumor cell proliferation and migration and induce apoptosis via pathways such as MEK/ERK and p38 MAPK. Conversely, other receptors, such as OR7C1, may serve as biomarkers for cancer-initiating cells. In conclusion, intestinal ORs represent a vital component of the gut’s sensory network. The review also discusses the translational potential of these findings. By elucidating the precise pairing relationships between dietary components and specific ORs, novel therapeutic strategies could be developed. Intestinal ORs may thus emerge as promising targets for nutritional and pharmacological interventions in metabolic diseases, inflammatory bowel diseases, and malignancies.

ObjectiveTo observe the clinical efficacy and safety of Tangning Tongluo tablets in the treatment of nonproliferative diabetic retinopathy （DR）. MethodsFourteen research centers participated in this study， which spanned a time interval from September 2021 to May 2023. A total of 240 patients with nonproliferative DR were included and randomly assigned into an observation group （120 cases） and a control group （120 cases）. The observation group was treated with Tangning Tongluo tablets， and the control group with calcium dobesilate capsules. Both groups were treated for 24 consecutive weeks. The vision， DR progression rate， retinal microhemangioma， hemorrhage area， exudation area， glycosylated hemoglobin （HbA1c） level， and TCM syndrome score were assessed before and after treatment， and the safety was observed. ResultsThe vision changed in both groups after treatment （P<0.05）， and the observation group showed higher best corrected visual acuity （BCVA） than the control group （P<0.05）. The DR progression was slow with similar rates in the two groups. The fundus hemorrhage area and exudation area did not change significantly after treatment in both groups， while the observation group outperformed the control group in reducing the fundus hemorrhage area and exudation area. There was no significant difference in the number of microhemangiomas between the two groups before treatment. After treatment， the number of microhemangiomas decreased in both the observation group （Z=-1.437， P<0.05） and the control group （Z=-2.238， P<0.05）， and it showed no significant difference between the two groups. As the treatment time prolonged， the number of microhemangiomas gradually decreased in both groups. There was no significant difference in the HbA1c level between the two groups before treatment. After treatment， the decline in the HbA1c level showed no significant difference between the two groups. The TCM syndrome score did not have a statistically significant difference between the two groups before treatment. After treatment， neither the TCM syndrome score nor the response rate had significant difference between the two groups. With the extension of the treatment time， both groups showed amelioration of TCM syndrome compared with the baseline. ConclusionTangning Tongluo tablets are safe and effective in the treatment of nonproliferative DR， being capable of improving vision and reducing hemorrhage and exudation in the fundus.

Globally,emerging zoonotic diseases have revealed the close links among human,animal and environmental health,and the difficulties in addressing such complex health problems through a single entity.The concept of One Health has emerged,emphasizing the common strength of cross-sectoral,multidisciplinary,and social participation in addressing global health threats from a holistic perspective.China's action to address emerging infectious diseases since 2020 are reviewed,and the current status of and challenges in China's One Health governance of emerging infectious disease prevention and control systems are analyzed and summarized.The outlook for the development of a One Health governance system to help prepare for future pandemic diseases is also discussed.

This study analyzed the burden and trends in enteric infections in China from 1990 to 2021 from a One Health perspec-tive.Data on mortality associated with enteric infections were extracted from the 2021 Global Burden of Disease(GBD)database.The analysis focused on assessing the mortality rates of enteric infectious diseases attributed to various etiologies and risk factors,along with the age and sex distribution,from 1990 to 2021.Average annual percentage change(AAPC)was used to assess the total changes in disease burden.The age-standardized mortality rate of intestinal infections in China decreased from 9.642/100 000 in 1990 to 0.439/100 000 in 2021,with an AAPC of-57.103%(95%CI:-57.118%to-57.088%).In 2021,Rotavirus,Norovirus,and Crypto-sporidium were the top three etiologies contributing to disease burden,with mortality rates of 1.020/100 000,0.040/100 000 and 0.079/100 000,respectively.A significant variation in etiology distribution was observed across age groups:Rotavirus,Shigella,and Crypto-sporidium dominated among children under 5 years of age,whereas Cryptosporidium,Norovirus,and Clostridioides difficile were more prevalent in older populations.Risk factor analysis indicated that unsafe water sources and poor sanitation accounted for 73.394%of all enteric disease-related deaths.In conclusion,the burden of enteric infections in China markedly declined from 1990 to 2021,and sig-nificant variations in the etiological spectrum and disease burden were observed across age groups.The persistent effects of unsafe wa-ter sources and poor sanitation underscore the need for targeted interventions to further decrease the burden of these diseases.Our find-ings highlight the success of public health interventions in decreasing the burden of enteric infections in China,while emphasizing the need for targeted measures to address disparities in high-risk populations and improve environmental sanitation.

Objective:To summarize the clinical data of single-center juvenile dermatomyositis（JDM）complicated with interstitial lung disease（ILD），and provide experience for pediatricians.Methods:Data of 61 children with JDM who were admitted to Children's Hospital affiliated to Xi'an Jiaotong University from January 2016 to May 2023 were collected. General data，clinical symptoms，chest high-resolution CT，laboratory examination and myositis antibody spectrum of the children were recorded.Results:Among the 61 children with JDM，there were 30 cases（13 males and 17 females）without ILD. The age of onset was 5.96（3.50，8.92）years and the course of disease was（11.79±20.00）months. There were 31 cases with ILD（14 males and 17 females），the age of onset was 7.42（4.50，10.08）years，and the duration of ILD was（5.47±8.09）months. There was statistical difference in the course of disease between the two groups（ P<0.05），but no statistical difference in gender and age between the two groups（ P>0.05）. Among 61 children with JDM，there were statistical differences in fever between the two groups（ P<0.05），but no statistical differences in heliotrope discoloration，gottron’s papules，calcinosis and myasthenia between the two groups（ P>0.05）. AST and FER showed statistical difference between the two groups（ P<0.05），while CK，LDH，CK-MB，ESR，C3 and C4 showed no statistical difference（ P>0.05）. All 61 cases of children were tested for myositis antibody spectrum，and there was statistical difference in anti-MDA5 antibody between the two groups（ P<0.05），but no statistical difference in the rest（ P>0.05）. There were statistical differences between the two groups in the treatment of methotrexate，hydroxychloroquine and cyclophosphamide（ P<0.05）. A total of 11 cases（36.67%）in the without ILD group were treated with biologics（8 adalimumab，2 infliximab and 1 tofacitinib），and 23 cases（74.19%）in the ILD group were treated with biologics（11 adalimumab，9 tofaciib，2 infliximab and 1 tocilizumab）. All 61 cases with JDM were followed up. Among the 30 children without ILD，1 case was lost to follow-up 2 months after treatment，and the rest were treated effectively without death. Among the 31 children with ILD，3 cases died of severe pulmonary infection with multidrug-resistant bacteria during treatment，of which 1 case was positive for anti-MDA5 antibody and 2 cases were negative for myositis specific antibody. Conclusion:JDM is more likely to be complicated with ILD，fever is more likely to occur in ILD group，and children with positive anti-MDA5 antibody are more likely to occur ILD. Biologic agents such as adalimumab and tofacitinib are effective in combination therapy. In the course of treatment，multi-drug resistant bacteria infection should be guarded against to reduce mortality.

Objective:To explore the clinical application effect of double eyelid plasty using the levator palpebrae superioris aponeurosis fiber flap.Methods:In March 2021, 3-mm-wide tissue strips were vertically harvested from the mid-upper eyelids from 5 adult Han cadavers with single eyelids, provided by the Anatomy Lab of Nanchang Vocational Health College, and then Masson staining was performed to track the levator aponeurosis fiber. A descriptive case series study was performed. From February 2021 to February 2022, eligible patients who were prospectively collected from the Outpatient Department of the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University underwent double eyelid plasty. The levator palpebrae superioris aponeurosis fiber flap was dissected and repositioned between the orbicularis oculi muscles at the upper and lower edge of incision. The surgical site was closed by a three-layer multi-faceted suture fixation: the muscle of orbicularis oculi at lower edge of incision was sutured to the flap root and tarsal upper edge; the upper and the muscle of orbicularis oculi at the upper and lower edge were sutured to the flap end; the skin was sutured to the muscle of orbicularis oculi and flap end. Postoperatively, incision healing and complications were monitored. Twelve months after surgery, two independent attending plastic surgeons evaluated double eyelid height, curvature, symmetry, and incision scar. The patients were asked to evaluate the effect as satisfied, relatively satisfied, or dissatisfied.Results:Masson staining of 5 lateral upper eyelid specimens revealed that in single-eyelid cases, the levator palpebrae superioris aponeurosis diverged into fibers at the white line, penetrated the orbicularis oculi loosely, and extended to the eyelid margin. Fourty female patients with single or hidden double eyelids were included, aged 18-38 years. After 12 months’ follow-up, all patients had good incision healing without major complications. Twelve months after the operation, the result of doctor evaluation was as followed: 40 cases had proper line height and natural curvature; 38 cases had good line retention, 2 cases had shallower lines; 39 cases had good symmetry, 1 case had asymmetry; 40 cases had no sunken scar. The result of patient satisfaction was as satisfied (35 cases), relatively satisfied (2 cases), dissatisfied (3 cases), with a 92.5% (37/40) satisfaction rate.Conclusion:The levator palpebrae superioris aponeurosis fiber flap method can reconstruct upper eyelid tissue, with natural dynamic double eyelids with few complications and high patient satisfaction.
