Objective: To explore human papillomavirus (HPV) and vaccination related knowledge and vaccination willingness of college students in Guizhou Province and their related factors, so as to provide a basis for formulating targeted intervention strategies. Methods: From May to June 2025, by applying convenience sampling method,4 567 college students were selected from 8 universities in Guizhou Province to conduct a questionnaire survey. Awareness of HPV and vaccination related knowledge, vaccination willingness as well as related factors among college students were also analyzed. The t test and Chi square test were used for comparison between groups, and multifactor Logistic regression was employed to analyze the related factors of HPV vaccination willingness among college students. Results: The HPV and vaccine knowledge score of college students in Guizhou Province was ( 10.50 ±2.09), and the score of girls (10.81±1.82) was higher than that of boys (10.19±2.30) ( t=10.09, P <0.01). The HPV vaccination willingness rate of college students was 65.6%, and the rate was higher in girls than in boys (67.1%,64.1%, χ 2=4.75, P <0.05). Multi factor Logistic regression analysis showed that ethnicity and HPV testing were related factors that affected college students willingness to vaccinate (minority: OR boy =1.23, OR girl =1.35; previous HPV testing: OR boy =0.56, OR girl =0.59); boys willingness to vaccinate was related to the number of sexual partners ( OR =0.60), family history of cancer ( OR =0.65), and sexual behavior related HPV knowledge scores ( OR =0.89), while girls willingness to vaccinate was related to bisexual sexual orientation ( OR =0.59), previous HIV testing ( OR =0.60), and HPV and vaccine basic knowledge scores ( OR =0.86) (all P <0.05). Conclusions College students in Guizhou Province have higher HPV vaccine related knowledge scores and are more willing to vaccinate, and those above are higher in girls than in boys. Health education content should be optimized based on gender differences, and promote the willingness and behavior of HPV vaccination among college students.

ObjectiveTo develop an early - warning approach for influenza in Anhui province using the moving epidemic method （MEM）， offering a scientific basis for influenza prevention and control in the province. MethodsBased on the surveillance data reported weekly by influenza sentinel hospitals and network laboratories in the “China Influenza Surveillance Information System”， the weekly influenza virus detection positive rate （positive rate， PR） across the province was analyzed. The MEM was used to estimate the epidemic threshold and classification intensity threshold of influenza in Anhui province before and after the COVID-19 pandemic， respectively. The early warning effect of the MEM was evaluated using cross-validation. ResultsEpidemic and graded intensity thresholds of influenza were derived using PR and MEM. Prior to the COVID-19 pandemic， the starting， medium-intensity， high-intensity， extremely-high-intensity， and ending thresholds of influenza epidemics were 17.08%， 38.47%， 53.20%， 59.71%， and 12.34% respectively. At this point， the model exhibited sensitivity of 0.98， specificity of 0.86， Matthews correlation coefficient of 0.84， and Youden index of 0.84. After the COVID-19 pandemic， these thresholds were 25.61%， 43.81%， 63.29%， 74.46%， and 17.82% respectively. At this point， the model demonstrates sensitivity of 0.86， specificity of 0.92， Matthews correlation coefficient of 0.78， and Youden index of 0.77. ConclusionMEM shows good applicability in estimating the epidemic and graded intensity thresholds of influenza during the winter and spring in Anhui province. Both the influenza epidemic threshold and graded intensity thresholds after the COVID-19 pandemic are higher than those before the pandemic.

Objective: To investigate the characteristics of malignant tumor incidence and mortality in cancer registration areas of Sichuan Province in 2021. Methods: Cancer registration data from 142 registries in Sichuan Province in 2021 were collected via the China Cancer Registry Platform. Crude incidence and crude mortality were calculated. The Chinese population-standardized incidence and world population-standardized incidence were standardized using the age structure of the standard population from the Fifth National Population Census in 2000 and Segi's world standard population. Descriptive analyses examined the distribution of rates by genders, urban/rural areas, and ages, and the ranking of leading cancer sites. Results: In 2021, there were 248 600 new malignant tumor cases reported in Sichuan Province, with a crude incidence of 296.37/100 000. The Chinese population-standardized incidence and world population-standardized incidence were 164.67/100 000 and 160.47/100 000, respectively. There were 158 673 malignant tumor deaths, with a crude mortality of 189.16/100 000. The Chinese population-standardized mortality and world population-standardized mortality were 92.47/100 000 and 92.00/100 000, respectively. The Chinese population-standardized incidence and mortality in males were higher than in females (179.56/100 000 vs. 151.62/100 000, 125.09/100 000 vs. 60.35/100 000). The Chinese population-standardized incidence and mortality in urban areas were higher than in rural areas (175.74/100 000 vs. 157.54/100 000, 93.63/100 000 vs. 91.82/100 000). Both the crude incidence and crude mortality increased with age. The top ten malignant tumors by crude incidence were lung cancer, colorectal cancer, liver cancer, breast cancer, esophageal cancer, gastric cancer, cervical cancer, prostate cancer, thyroid cancer, and corpus uteri cancer, accounting for 76.33% of all new cases. The top ten by crude mortality were lung cancer, liver cancer, esophageal cancer, colorectal cancer, gastric cancer, breast cancer, pancreatic cancer, cervical cancer, prostate cancer, and brain tumors, accounting for 82.39% of all cancer deaths. Conclusions In registration areas of Sichuan Province, the incidence and mortality of malignant tumors are relatively low. Key populations such as males, urban residents, and the elderly require focused prevention and control efforts. Comprehensive measures should be prioritized for malignant tumors including lung cancer, liver cancer, esophageal cancer, gastric cancer, colorectal cancer, and breast cancer.

Objective To explore the therapeutic effect of LuoFuShan Rheumatism Plaster(LFS)on neuropathic pain(NP)and its molecular mechanism.Methods Mouse models of sciatic nerve chronic constriction injury(CCI)were treated with low,medium,and high doses(2.2,4.4,and 8.8 cm2,respectively)of LFS by topical application for 14 consecutive days.The therapeutic effects were assessed by evaluating the mechanical withdrawal threshold(MWT),paw withdrawal latency(PWL),plasma IL-6 and TNF-α levels,and histopathology of the sciatic nerve.Network pharmacology and molecular docking were used to identify the key targets and signaling pathways.The key targets were verified by RT-qPCR and immunohistochemistry.The biosafety of LFS was evaluated by measuring the organ indices and damage indicators of the heart,liver,and kidneys.Results Compared with the CCI group,LFS dose-dependently increased MWT and PWL,reduced plasma IL-6 and TNF-α levels,and alleviated sciatic nerve inflammation in the mouse models.Network pharmacology identified 378 bioactive compounds targeting 279 NP-associated genes enriched in TLR and TNF signaling.Molecular docking showed that quercetin and ursolic acid in LFS could stably bind to TLR4 and TNF-α.In the mouse models of sciatic nerve CCI,LFS significantly downregulated the mRNA expression levels of Tlr4 and Tnf-α in the spinal cord in a dose-dependent manner and lowered the protein expressions of TLR4 and TNF-α in the sciatic nerve.LFS treatment did not cause significant changes in the organ indices or damage indicators of the heart,liver and kidneys as compared with those in the CCI model group and sham-operated group.Conclusion LFS alleviates NP in mice by suppression of TLR4/TNF-α-mediated neuroinflammation with a good safety profile.

The influenza A virus (IAV), renowned for its high contagiousness and potential to catalyze global pandemics, poses significant challenges due to the emergence of drug-resistant strains. Given the critical role of RNA polymerase in IAV replication, it stands out as a promising target for anti-IAV therapies. In this study, we identified a novel C-3-substituted oleanolic acid benzyl amide derivative, A5, as a potent inhibitor of the PA_C-PB1_N polymerase subunit interaction, with an IC₅₀ value of 0.96 ± 0.21 μmol/L. A5 specifically targets the highly conserved PA_C domain and demonstrates remarkable efficacy against both laboratory-adapted and clinically isolated IAV strains, including multidrug-resistant strains, with EC₅₀ values ranging from 0.60 to 1.83 μmol/L. Notably, when combined with oseltamivir, A5 exhibits synergistic effects both in vitro and in vivo. In a murine model, dose-dependent administration of A5 leads to a significant reduction in IAV titers, resulting in a high survival rate among treated mice. Additionally, A5 treatment inhibits virus-induced Toll-like receptor 4 activation, attenuates cytokine responses, and protects against IAV-induced inflammatory responses in macrophages. In summary, A5 emerges as a novel inhibitor with high efficiency and broad-spectrum anti-influenza activity.

OBJECTIVES: To explore the therapeutic effect of LuoFuShan Rheumatism Plaster (LFS) on neuropathic pain (NP) and its molecular mechanism. METHODS: Mouse models of sciatic nerve chronic constriction injury (CCI) were treated with low, medium, and high doses (2.2, 4.4, and 8.8 cm², respectively) of LFS by topical application for 14 consecutive days. The therapeutic effects were assessed by evaluating the mechanical withdrawal threshold (MWT), paw withdrawal latency (PWL), plasma IL-6 and TNF-α levels, and histopathology of the sciatic nerve. Network pharmacology and molecular docking were used to identify the key targets and signaling pathways. The key targets were verified by RT-qPCR and immunohistochemistry. The biosafety of LFS was evaluated by measuring the organ indices and damage indicators of the heart, liver, and kidneys. RESULTS: Compared with the CCI group, LFS dose-dependently increased MWT and PWL, reduced plasma IL-6 and TNF-α levels, and alleviated sciatic nerve inflammation in the mouse models. Network pharmacology identified 378 bioactive compounds targeting 279 NP-associated genes enriched in TLR and TNF signaling. Molecular docking showed that quercetin and ursolic acid in LFS could stably bind to TLR4 and TNF‑α. In the mouse models of sciatic nerve CCI, LFS significantly downregulated the mRNA expression levels of Tlr4 and Tnf-α in the spinal cord in a dose-dependent manner and lowered the protein expressions of TLR4 and TNF-α in the sciatic nerve. LFS treatment did not cause significant changes in the organ indices or damage indicators of the heart, liver and kidneys as compared with those in the CCI model group and sham-operated group. CONCLUSIONS LFS alleviates NP in mice by suppression of TLR4/TNF-α-mediated neuroinflammation with a good safety profile.

OBJECTIVE To explore the efficacy of platelet-rich plasma （PRP） intrauterine infusion combined with Gushen antai pills in the treatment of recurrent abortion （RSA） and its impacts on endometrial receptivity and hormone levels in patients. METHODS A total of 108 patients with RSA treated in our hospital from January 2021 to January 2024 were selected and evenly divided into control group and study group using the random number table method， with 54 cases in each group. On the basis of conventional treatment， patients in the control group were administered with Gushen antai pills， while patients in the study group received PRP intrauterine infusion combined with Gushen antai pills. The clinical efficacy， TCM syndrome scores before and after treatment， endometrial receptivity [endometrial thickness （EST）， spiral artery resistance index （RI）， and pulsatility index （PI）]， hormone [progesterone （P）， estradiol （E2）， and human chorionic gonadotropin （HCG）] levels， as well as pregnancy outcomes， were compared between the two groups. Additionally， the occurrence of adverse reactions in both groups was recorded. RESULTS The total effective rate （91.44% vs. 81.48%） and infant live birth rate （96.30% vs. 83.33%） of the study group were significantly higher than those of the control group （P＜0.05）. Following treatment， various TCM syndrome scores and total score， spiral artery RI and PI levels in both groups were markedly lower than those in the same groups before treatment， with the study group showing significantly lower levels than the control group（P＜0.05）. Conversely， the P， E2， HCG and EST levels in both groups were significantly higher than those in the same groups before treatment， and the study group exhibited notably higher levels than the control group （P＜0.05）. There was no statistically significant difference in the total incidence of adverse reactions between the two groups （P＞0.05）. CONCLUSIONS PRP intrauterine infusion combined with Gushen antai pills has good clinical efficacy in the treatment of RSA. It can improve TCM syndromes， enhance endometrial receptivity， regulate hormone levels and improve pregnancy outcomes， and it is highly safe.

BACKGROUND:It has been proved clinically that adhesion of fibrous scar with the dura mater or nerve root after lumbar operation is an important factor for postoperative symptoms,such as postoperative pain and numbness. OBJECTIVE:To verify the inhibitory effect of autologous ligamentum flavum on the formation of epidural fibrous scar after lumbar surgery and explore the possible molecular biological mechanism. METHODS:Forty-eight Japanese white rabbits(6-8 months old)were randomly divided into three groups:a ligamentum flavum preservation group,a ligamentum flavum non-preservation group,and an autologous fat reposition group.A lumbar laminectomy model was established in all the three groups of rabbits,and rabbit epidural tissues were collected at 3 and 6 weeks after modeling.Hematoxylin-eosin staining was used to observe histological changes and the number and density of fibroblasts,VG staining was used to observe the percentage of collagen fiber area,and immunohistochemistry was used to observe the expression of transforming growth factor β1 and Smad3 proteins. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Hematoxylin-eosin staining results revealed that fibroblasts in the ligamentum flavum preservation group were few and loosely arranged,while the cells in the ligamentum flavum non-preservation and autologous fat reposition groups were more numerous and closely arranged.The number density of fibroblasts in the ligamentum flavum preservation group was lower than that in the ligamentum flavum non-preservation and autologous fat reposition groups at 3 and 6 weeks after surgery(P＜0.05);however,there was no significant difference between the latter two groups.VG staining results showed that the collagen fibers in the ligamentum flavum preservation group were sparse and distributed unevenly,while a lot of red collagen fibers were gathered in the ligamentum flavum non-preservation and autologous fat reposition groups.The area percentage of collagen fibers in the ligamentum flavum preservation group was lower than that in the ligamentum flavum non-preservation and autologous fat reposition groups at 3 and 6 weeks after surgery(P＜0.05),but there was no significant difference between the latter two groups.The results of immunohistochemistry showed that the degree of positive staining of retained histone the ligamentum flavum preservation group was significantly lower than that of the other two groups.The absorbance value of transforming growth factor β1 and Smad3 in the ligamentum flavum preservation group was significantly lower than that in the other two groups at 3 and 6 weeks after surgery(P＜0.05),but there was no significant difference between the latter two groups.To conclude,there are different degrees of epidural fibrous scar formation after lumbar surgery.If the ligamentum flavum is preserved,it can help to reduce the number of epidural fibroblasts as well as the formation of collagen fibers,thus reducing the adhesion of the fibrous scar tissue to the dural sac and nerve root.The mechanism is not only a purely mechanical blockade,but also to reduce the formation of epidural fibrous scar by interfering with the transforming growth factor β1/Smad3 signaling pathway.
