Objective:To determine the detection rate of myopia among primary and secondary school students in Hunan Province in 2022 and to analyze the influencing factors at both the school and individual levels, thereby providing a scientific basis for developing myopia prevention and control strategies.Methods:From October to November 2022, a multi-stage stratified cluster random sampling method was employed to select students from Year 4 of primary school to Year 3 of senior high school across 14 prefecture-level (autonomous prefecture) cities in Hunan Province for vision screening and questionnaire surveys. A multilevel regression model was utilized to analyze the influencing factors of myopia at both the school and individual levels.Results:A total of 189 343 primary and secondary school students were included in this study. The overall myopia detection rate was 55.56%, with a significantly higher prevalence observed in female students (60.49%) compared to males (51.03%) and in urban students (59.12%) versus those from rural areas (53.50%). A marked upward trend in myopia prevalence was identified with advancing grade levels (trend test χ2=16 246.13, P<0.001). Multilevel regression analysis revealed that at the individual level, female gender, higher grade level, parental myopia history, daily homework duration ≥2 hours after school, improper reading/writing postures, and taking breaks only after more than 15 minutes of near work were associated with an increased risk of myopia. Conversely, adequate sleep duration, outdoor activity ≥2 hours, and outdoor breaks during recess demonstrated protective effects. At the school level, non-compliant blackboard illumination uniformity emerged as a significant risk factor for myopia development. Conclusions:The detection rate of myopia among primary and secondary school students in Hunan Province remains relatively high and is associated with multiple factors at both the school and individual levels. Targeted interventions should be implemented at different levels to mitigate the risk of myopia.

ObjectiveTo study the mechanism by which Shexiang Tongxin dropping pills (STDP) ameliorate the dysfunction of coronary microvascular endothelial cells in the rat model of heart failure. MethodsThe heart failure model was established by ligation of the left anterior descending coronary artery in rats, which were then allocated into sham, model, STDP, and telmisartan (TLM) groups and treated for 21 days. The heart function was detected by echocardiography, and the levels of myocardial injury markers, nitric oxide (NO), endothelin-1 (ET1), and angiotensinⅡ (AngⅡ) were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The protein levels of endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) were determined by Western blot. The model of cardiac microvascular endothelial cell injury was established by AngⅡ induction and then treated with the STDP-containing serum (5%, 10%, and 20%) for 24 h. The levels of NO and ET1 were measured by ELISA. Western blot was employed to determine the protein levels of eNOS, iNOS, angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2), and angiotensinⅡ receptor 2 (AT2). MLN-4760, an ACE2 inhibitor, was used to explore the mechanism underpinning the regulatory effect of STDP on the ACE2-AT2/MAS pathway. ResultsCompared with the sham group, the model group showed decreases in left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) and left ventricular fractional shortening (LVFS) (P<0.05), a decline in serum NO level, elevations in serum AngⅡ and ET1 levels, a reduction in p-eNOS/eNOS ratio, and up-regulation in iNOS expression (P<0.05). Compared with the model group, STDP increased LVEF, LVFS, and cardiac output (P<0.05), raised the level of NO and lowered the levels of AngⅡ and ET1 in the serum (P<0.05), increased the p-eNOS/eNOS value, and inhibited iNOS expression (P<0.05). Compared with the AngⅡ group, STDP increased the NO content and decreased the ET1 content in endothelial cells (P<0.05), increased the p-eNOS/eNOS ratio, and inhibited the iNOS expression (P<0.05). The ACE2 inhibitor MLN-4760 reversed the regulatory effects of STDP on p-eNOS, eNOS, and iNOS. ConclusionSTDP improves the cardiac function in the rat model of heart failure, enhances the synthesis and release of NO in cardiac microvascular endothelial cells, reduces AngⅡ and ET1 levels, and regulates the expression of p-eNOS and eNOS, thereby ameliorating the dysfunction of microvascular endothelial cells in heart failure. This mechanism is related to the upregulation of the expression of proteins in the ACE2-AT2/MAS pathway.

ObjectiveTo study the mechanism of Shexiang Tongxin Dripping pills-containing serum (STDP) in ameliorating angiotensinⅡ (AngⅡ)-induced cell phenotype transformation, proliferation, migration, and dysfunction of vascular smooth muscle cells. MethodsAn AngⅡ-induced proliferation and migration model of vascular smooth muscle cells was established. The cells were treated with STDP at 5%, 10%, and 20% for 24 h. The immunofluorescence assay was employed to detect the expression of α smooth muscle actin (α-SMA) and matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2). The cell-counting kit-8 (CCK-8) assay and 5-ethynyl-2'-deoxyuridine (EdU) staining were employed to detect the proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells, and the scratch assay was employed to detect the migration of the cells. Western blot was employed to determine the expression levels of pathway proteins such as angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2), angiotensin Ⅱ type 2 (AT2), angiotensin Ⅱ type 1 (AT1), as well as proliferation and migration proteins such as typeⅠ collagen (ColⅠ) and osteopontin (OPN). ResultsCompared with the model group, STDP increased the expression of α-SMA, reduced the expression of MMP-2, and inhibited the proliferation and migration of vascular smooth muscle cells (P<0.05). Furthermore, STDP up-regulated the expression levels of ACE2, AT2, and MAS1, while down-regulating the expression level of AT1, PCNA, ColⅠ, MMP-9, Rock1, Rock2, and SRF (P<0.05). Compared with the STDP group, the ACE2 inhibitor reversed the regulatory effects of STDP. ConclusionSTDP inhibits the phenotype transformation, proliferation, and migration of vascular smooth muscle cells and regulates the expression of cell proliferation and migration-related proteins to ameliorate the dysfunction of vascular smooth muscle cells. It exerts the effects by up-regulating the expression of proteins in the ACE2-AT2/MAS pathway and down-regulating the expression of proteins in the AT1-Rock signaling pathway.

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.
