Objective: To investigate the factors influencing the co-prevalence of allergic rhinitis and obesity among primary and secondary school students in Inner Mongolia, so as to provide a data foundation and theoretical basis for developing targeted intervention measures. Methods: In September and October 2024, a stratified cluster random sampling method was employed to select 139 102 students from 539 schools across 12 leagues/cities and 103 banners/counties in Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region. Participants who were diagnosed with allergic rhinitis by a doctor at least once within one year and had a body mass index ≥ 28 kg/m 2 were considered to have comorbid conditions. Results: The coprevalence rate of allergic rhinitis and obesity among primary and secondary school students in Inner Mongolia was 6.4% (8 931 cases). Lasso-Logistic regression revealed that nonboarding status, higher maternal education, consuming high protein foods ≥1 time daily, occasionally or never eating breakfast, engaging in moderate to vigorous physical activity for ≥60 minutes on fewer than half of holidays, and having been exposed to second hand smoke in person within the past seven days were associated with higher odds ratios for co-prevalence of allergic rhinitis and obesity( OR = 1.23 , 1.22-1.63, 1.20, 1.19, 1.38, 1.35); being female, higher grade level, residence in flag/county/district areas, non only child status, never having consumed a full glass of alcohol, non hypertensive status, and households without pets were associated with lower co-prevalence risks ( OR =0.65, 0.67-0.77, 0.81, 0.87, 0.73, 0.41, 0.68) (all P <0.05). The ROC curve indicated an area under the curve of 0.64 for the predictive model, demonstrating satisfactory discriminatory ability. The calibration curve showed consistency between predicted and actual occurrence probabilities. Conclusions The co-prevalence of allergic rhinitis and obesity among primary and secondary school students in Inner Mongolia is closely associated with demographic characteristics, dietary behaviours, and lifestyle habits. Future prevention and control strategies should prioritize these factors to implement targeted interventions.

ObjectiveTo investigate whether anti-programmed death-1 （PD-1） monoclonal antibody can enhance the efficacy and safety of argon-helium cryoablation combined with targeted therapy in patients with unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma （uHCC） aged 60 years or older. MethodsA retrospective analysis was performed for the clinical data of 124 patients with advanced uHCC aged 60 years or older who were treated at The Fifth Medical Center of Chinese PLA General Hospital from January 2013 to September 2024. After propensity score matching， 57 patients received cryoablation combined with targeted therapy （double combination group）， while 57 received cryoablation combined with targeted therapy and anti-PD-1 monoclonal antibody （triple combination group）. The indicators for efficacy assessment included objective response rate （ORR）， disease control rate （DCR）， progression-free survival （PFS）， overall survival （OS）， and the incidence rate of adverse events. The Mann-Whitney U test was used for comparison of continuous data between two groups， and the chi-square test or the Fisher’s exact test was used for comparison of categorical data between two groups. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to plot survival curves， and the Log-rank test was used for comparison between groups. A Cox proportional-hazards regression model analysis was used to investigate the influencing factors for survival prognosis. ResultsThe triple combination group had a significantly higher ORR than the double combination group （59.6% vs 29.8%， χ²=9.083， P=0.003）， while there was no significant difference in DCR between the two groups （87.7% vs 77.2%， χ²=1.516， P=0.218）， and compared with the double combination group， the triple combination group had significantly longer median PFS （9.1 months vs 4.8 months， χ²=7.813， P=0.005） and median OS （26.1 months vs 13.6 months， χ²=14.199， P<0.001）. The multivariate Cox proportional-hazards regression model analysis showed that triple combination treatment was an independent influencing factor for PFS （hazard ratio ［HR］=0.52， 95% confidence interval ［CI］： 0.35 — 0.78， P=0.001） and OS （HR=0.32， 95%CI： 0.20 — 0.51， P<0.001）. There was no significant difference in the incidence rate of adverse events between the two groups （P>0.05）. ConclusionTriple combination treatment with argon-helium cryoablation， targeted therapy， and anti-PD-1 monoclonal antibody can significantly improve survival benefits in uHCC patients aged 60 years or older， with a controllable safety profile.

Objective: To analyze the prevalence trends of different types of elevated blood pressure and their association with nutritional status among primary and secondary school students in Inner Mongolia from 2019 to 2024, providing references for targeted prevention strategies. Methods: From September 2019 to 2024, a stratified random cluster sampling method was used to select 12 primary and secondary schools from each league city in Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region. A total of 177 108, 137 758, 190 182, 180 084 , 188 056, 180 351 primary and secondary school students (excluding grades one to three of primary school) were included for physical examination. The correlation between their nutritional status and high blood pressure was analyzed based on the basic situation of 129 821 primary and secondary school students who completed a questionnaire survey at the same time in 2024. Statistical analysis was conducted using a Chi-square test and multiple Logistic regression model. Results: From 2019 to 2024, the detection rates of elevated blood pressure were 13.60%, 13.68%, 17.60%, 17.24%, 14.77% and 15.96%, respectively. The rates for isolated systolic hypertension were 4.24%, 5.83%, 7.26%, 7.19%, 6.24% and 6.93%; isolated diastolic hypertension rates were 6.38%, 4.99%, 6.23 %, 6.41%, 5.39% and 5.66%; and combined systolic and diastolic hypertension rates were 2.97%, 2.86%, 4.11%, 3.65%, 3.14 % and 3.36%. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that girls, junior high school, senior high school, overweight, and obesity were positively associated with elevated blood pressure risk ( OR =1.27, 1.25, 1.32, 1.66, 3.07, all P <0.05); conversely, county residence, Mongolian ethnicity, and other ethnicities showed negative associations ( OR =0.90, 0.93, 0.90, all P <0.05). Conclusions Overweight and obesity among children and adolescents are closely related to various types of elevated blood pressure. Prevention strategies should prioritize effectively controlling weight issues among children and adolescents, thereby effectively reducing the incidence of elevated blood pressure.

Objective:To explore the value of cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) derived left ventricular late gadolinium enhancement (LV LGE) for the primary prevention of malignant ventricular arrhythmias in arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC) patients.Methods:This was a single-center retrospective study. Consecutive ARVC patients who underwent CMR at Fuwai Hospital between January 2016 and September 2020, with no history of malignant ventricular arrhythmias at diagnosis, were enrolled. Clinical data and CMR characteristics were collected. The primary endpoint was defined as new-onset malignant ventricular arrhythmias related events, including sustained ventricular tachycardia, ventricular fibrillation/flutter, sudden cardiac death, cardiac arrest, and appropriate implantable cardioverter-defibrillator discharge. Follow-up via telephone interviews and medical records was conducted to confirm endpoint occurrences, and patients were categorized into event-free and event groups based on endpoint status. Univariable and multivariable Cox regression analysis were performed to identify independent risk factors for malignant ventricular arrhythmias in ARVC patients. Subgroup analyses were conducted based on the ARVC 5-year risk score (cutoff: 25%) and the median value of LV LGE percentage (cutoff: 13%). Kaplan-Meier curves were plotted, and log-rank tests were used to compare the difference in the incidence of primary endpoint events between subgroups. Receiver operating characteristic curves and likelihood ratio test were used to evaluate the incremental prognostic value of LV LGE percentage beyond the ARVC 5-year risk score.Results:A total of 172 ARVC patients were enrolled, aged (39.0±16.6) years, including 73 females (42.4%). During a follow-up of 53.1 (25.4, 76.9) months, 51 patients (29.7%) experienced malignant ventricular arrhythmias related events, including 3 cases of sudden cardiac death, 1 cardiac arrest, 33 sustained ventricular tachycardia and 14 appropriate implantable cardioverter-defibrillator discharges. Multivariable Cox regression analysis indicated that the ARVC 5-year risk score ( HR=1.028, 95% CI 1.015-1.041, P<0.001) and LV LGE percentage ( HR=1.059, 95% CI 1.032-1.087, P<0.001) were independent risk factors of the primary endpoint events. Kaplan-Meier analysis using composite stratification (ARVC 5-year risk score cutoff: 25%; LV LGE percentage cutoff: 13%) demonstrated that patients with both high risk scores (≥25%) and extensive LV LGE (≥13%) had the highest risk of primary endpoint events. Notably, among patients with ARVC 5-year risk scores <25%, those with LV LGE≥13% had a higher incidence of primary endpoint events than those without (log-rank P=0.037). The composite prediction model combining the 5-year risk score and left ventricular LGE percentage demonstrated significantly improved predictive performance (area under the curve ( AUC)=0.82, 95% CI 0.75-0.90; likelihood ratio test all P<0.001) compared to single-variable models (left ventricular LGE percentage alone: AUC=0.71, 95% CI 0.63-0.82, P=0.01; 5-year risk score alone: AUC=0.71, 95% CI 0.62-0.81, P=0.02). Conclusion:LV LGE percentage independently predict new-onset malignant ventricular arrhythmias in ARVC patients and provided incremental prognostic value based on the existing ARVC 5-year risk score.

Objective:To investigate the effect of different timing of arterial -venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) on the prognosis of patients with acute myocardial infarction complicated with cardiogenic shock (AMICS).Methods:This study was a prospective cohort study. AMICS patients received VA-ECMO support primary percutaneous coronary intervention in Henan Provincial People's Hospital from May 2017 to July 2023 were divided into early VA-ECMO group and late VA-ECMO group. 64 AMICS patients who met the indications for VA-ECMO implantation, but did not revive VA-ECMO were included as control group. Demographic characteristics, coronary interventional (PCI) information and complications after VA-ECMO implantation were collected. The primary end points was 1-year survival, minor end point were in-hospital and perioperative death. Multivariate Logistic and Cox regression models were used to evaluate the effect of timing of VA-ECMO on prognosis of AMICS patients. Kaplan-Meier survival curve was used to analyze the 1-year survival outcome of the 3 groups.Results:A total of 143 AMICS patients were included, and materials of 136 patients entered in the final analysis, including 42 in the early VA-ECMO group, 34 in the late VA-ECMO group, and 60 in the non-VA-ECMO group. Compared with the late VA-ECMO group, the early VA-ECMO group had a higher ratio of PPCI after VA-ECMO, a longer D-to-B time, a shorter VA-ECMO support time, a higher success rate of VA-ECMO withdrawal, and a lower complication rate (all P<0.05). Compared with the early VA-ECMO group, the perioperative, in-hospital and 1-year mortality were significantly higher in Non-ECMO support (all P<0.05). There was no difference in perioperative and in-hospital mortality between the early VA-ECMO group and the late VA-ECMO group, but the 1-year mortality in the late VA-ECMO group was significantly higher ( P<0.05). Perioperative, in-hospital and 1-year mortality rates were lower in the late VA-ECMO group than in the no-VA-ECMO group, but the differences were not statistically significant. Multivariate Logistic and Cox regression analysis showed that after adjusting interference factors, early VA-ECMO was still a protective factor for in-hospital ( OR=0.244, P=0.015) and one year ( HR=0.308, P=0.001)mortality. Kaplan-Merier survival curve showed that compared with the late VA-ECMO group and the group without VA-ECMO, the early VA-ECMO group had the highest 1-year survival rate. Conclusion:Patients with AMICS may benefit more from early VA-ECMO than from late VA-ECMO support for PPCI.

In recent years, the research focus on health-related behavior and chronic non-communicable diseases has shifted from the analysis on independent effects of multiple causes on a single outcome to the evaluation the complex relationships between multiple causes and multiple effects. Complex network theory, an important branch of system science, considers the relationships among factors in a network and can reveal how health-related behaviors interact with chronic diseases through a series of complex network models and indicators. This paper summarizes the definition and development of complex network theory and its commonly used models, indicators, and case studies in the field of health-related behavior and chronic disease to promote the application of complex network theory in the field of health and provide reference and tools for future research of the relationship between health-related behavior and chronic disease.

Objective:To explore the association between occupational noise perception and cardiovascular disease (CVD), depression symptoms, as well as their comorbidity in occupational population and provide evidence for the prevention and control of physical and mental illnesses.Methods:A cross-sectional survey design was adopted, based on baseline data in population in 28 prefectures in Sichuan Province and Guizhou Province, and 33 districts (counties) in Chongqing municipality from Southwest Occupational Population Cohort from China Railway Chengdu Group Co., Ltd. during October to December 2021. A questionnaire survey was conducted to collect information about noise perception, depressive symptoms, and the history of CVD. Latent profile analysis model was used to determine identify noise perception type, and multinomial logistic regression analysis was conducted to explore the relationship between different occupational noise perception types and CVD, depression symptoms and their comorbidity.Results:A total of 30 509 participants were included, the mean age was (36.6±10.5) years, and men accounted for 82.0%. The direct perception of occupational noise, psychological effects and hearing/sleep impact of occupational noise increased the risk for CVD, depressive symptoms, and their comorbidity. By using latent profile analysis, occupational noise perception was classified into four levels: low, medium, high, and very high. As the level of noise perception increased, the association with CVD, depressive symptoms, and their comorbidity increased. In fact, very high level occupational noise perception were found to increase the risk for CVD, depressive symptoms, and their comorbidity by 2.14 (95% CI: 1.73-2.65) times, 8.80 (95% CI: 7.91-9.78) times, and 17.02 (95% CI: 12.78-22.66) times respectively compared with low-level occupational noise perception. Conclusions:Different types of occupational noise perception are associated with CVD and depression symptom, especially in the form of CVD complicated with depression symptom. Furthermore, the intensity of occupational noise in the work environment should be reduced to lower the risk for physical and mental health.

Objective:To investigate the association between alcohol consumption and hypertension and SBP, DBP and the mediating effects of body mass index (BMI) and lipid level in occupational population, and provide reference for the intervention and prevention of hypertension.Methods:Based on the data of Southwest Occupational Population Cohort from China Railway Chengdu Group Co., Ltd., the information about the demographic characteristics, behavior and lifestyle, blood pressure and lipids level of the participants were collected through questionnaire survey, physical examination and blood biochemical test. Logistic/linear regression was used to analyze the association between alcohol consumption and hypertension, SBP and DBP. The individual and joint mediating effects of BMI, HDL-C, LDL-C, TG, and TC were explored through causal mediating analysis. A network analysis was used to explore the correlation between alcohol consumption, BMI and lipid levels, and hypertension.Results:A total of 22 887 participants were included, in whom 1 825 had newly detected hypertension. Logistic regression analysis found that current/former drinkers had a 33% increase of risk for hypertension compared with never-drinkers ( OR=1.33, 95% CI:1.19-1.48). Similarly, alcohol consumption could increase SBP ( β=1.05, 95% CI:0.69-1.40) and DBP ( β=1.10, 95% CI:0.83-1.38). Overall, BMI and lipid levels could mediate the associations between alcohol consumption and hypertension, SBP and DBP by 21.91%, 28.40% and 22.64%, respectively. BMI and TG were the main mediators, and they were also the two nodes with the highest edge weight and bridge strength centrality in the network of alcohol consumption, BMI, lipid levels and hypertension. Conclusions:Alcohol consumption was associated with increased risk for hypertension, and BMI and TG were important mediators and key nodes in the network. It is suggested that paying attention to the alcohol consumption, BMI and TG might help prevent hypertension in occupational population.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.
