Objective: To explore the results of comprehensive geriatric assessment (CGA) among convalescent elderly population, so as to provide the basis for strengthening the health management service level for convalescent elderly population. Methods: A total of 200 elderly people who convalesced at Hangzhou Wuyunshan Hospital from January 2021 to December 2023 were selected as the research subjects. The basic information, physical condition, psychological status, functional status, and social environment of the elderly were investigated using the CGA protocol. The basic characteristics of the elderly, physical conditions such as medication adherence, pain, malnutrition and frailty, psychological conditions such as cognitive function, anxiety symptoms and depression symptoms, functional conditions such as fall risk and social support level and social environment assessment results were analyzed. Results: Among the 200 elderly individuals, 58.00% were male, 44.50% were aged 70 to <80 years, 58.00% had an education level of high school or above, 55.00% were unmarried, 61.50% were childless, and 60.50% had basic medical insurance for employees. In terms of physical condition, 59.00% had comorbid chronic diseases, 40.50% used multiple medications, and the incidences of poor medication adherence, pain, malnutrition, and frailty were 22.50%, 10.00%, 54.00%, and 36.00%, respectively. Regarding psychological status, the incidences of impaired cognitive function, anxiety symptoms, and depressive symptoms were 57.00%, 89.50%, and 91.00%, respectively. In terms of functional status and social environment, 90.00% had a risk of falling, and 31.00% had a high level of social support. Univariable analysis showed that elderly individuals aged ≥80 years and those with an education level of primary school or below had higher incidences of poor medication adherence during convalescence; elderly individuals with poor medication adherence had a higher incidence of pain; and elderly individuals with impaired cognitive function, anxiety symptoms, and depressive symptoms had higher incidences of malnutrition (all P<0.05). Conclusions The physical condition and psychological status of convalescent elderly individuals are relatively poor, with a high risk of falling and insufficient levels of social support. Poor medication adherence is associated with advanced age and lower education levels, while malnutrition is associated with impaired cognitive function, anxiety symptoms, and depressive symptoms. Comprehensive health management for convalescent elderly population should be strengthened, and personalized health management services should be provided to improve their quality of life and sense of well-being.

Obesity, as a chronic recurrent disease, has become a major public health challenge in China. To implement the requirements of the Healthy China Initiative (2019—2030), under domestic guidelines or consensus statements on overweight and obesity, and in alignment with the latest scientific advances globally, the Quality control protocol for adult overweight and obesity screening in health management (examination) institutions (2025 edition) was developed. This protocol was drafted by the Health Management Center of Shanghai Changzheng Hospital and formulated through multiple rounds of deliberation by experts in China’s health examination quality control field. The protocol establishes unified standards for screening facilities, personnel qualifications, and measurement or testing procedures. It defines specific screening items, outlines a standardized screening pathway, and sets requirements for the final medical review, ensuring the scientific validity, effectiveness, and safety of the screening process. The implementation of this protocol will enhance the consistency of weight management practices for adults across health examination institutions and strengthen the quality control of overweight and obesity screening programs.

Objective To establish a brucellosis monitoring and testing technique applicable for the rapid field screening of natural epidemic diseases.Methods A rapid testing technique for Brucella was developed based on a double-antibody sandwich testing model using gradient-variant quantum dots as fluorescent tracers.The sensitivity,linearity,precision,and specificity of the technique were evaluated using suspensions of standard Brucella strains.Methodological comparisons across different sample types were conducted to assess the consistency of the test results.Results The gradient-variant quantum dots detection method was evaluated with standard Brucella strains,exhibiting a sensitivity of 1×103 CFU/mL and a linear correlation coefficient(r)of 0.994(95%CI,0.933-1.055).The maximum coefficient of variation was 12.94%in repeated tests,showing good specificity.A comparative assessment of 305 clinical samples was conducted using the Brucella gradient-variant quantum dots detection method,the Rose Bengal plate agglutination test(RBT),and the serum agglutination test(SAT),yielding a Kappa value of 0.95,indicating almost perfect agreement.Additionally,a comparative assessment of 110 environmental samples collected on-site was conducted using the Brucella gradient-variant quantum dots detection method and quantitative real-time PCR(qPCR).The Kappa values for aerosol collection fluid,surface wipes,and wool samples were all above 0.83,demonstrating near-perfect agreement.For fecal and soil samples,the Kappa values were above 0.62,indicating substantial agreement.Conclusion The Brucella detection method based on gradient-variant quantum dots technology is simple and can be conducted rapidly.The detection method demonstrates high sensitivity,linearity,precision,and specificity.It shows consistent performance in clinical sample testing.It is well-suited for field rapid screening of natural epidemic diseases in field settings and shows good application prospects in the monitoring,prevention,and rapid detection of zoonotic diseases.

Background Fatigue driving is an important cause of road traffic accidents in modern society, and the fatigue condition of heavy-duty commercial truck drivers has attracted widespread attention. Research on the fatigue status and influencing factors of heavy-duty commercial truck drivers in China is relatively rare at present. Objective To analyze the main characteristics of fatigue among heavy-duty commercial truck drivers and the impacts of factors such as working hours, insomnia, and occupational burnout on their fatigue status. Methods Using cluster sampling method, a cross-sectional study was conducted from July to August 2023, enrolling heavy-duty commercial truck drivers in long-distance freight logistics markets (stations) located in three administrative regions of W City, Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region. A self-designed questionnaire was used to collect demographic and occupational characteristics of heavy-duty commercial truck drivers, and the Chinese versions of Fatigue Scale-14 (FS-14), Athens Insomnia Scale (AIS), and Maslach Burnout Inventory General Survey (MBI-GS) were used to evaluate their fatigue, insomnia, and occupational burnout status, respectively. Mann-Whitney U test and Kruskal-Walls H test were used to compare intergroup differences, and Spearman correlation coefficient was used to analyze the correlation between variables. Hierarchical regression models were used to study the impacts of selected variables on fatigue status. Results This study obtained 311 valid questionnaires, with a valid recovery rate of 88.86% (311/350). The physical fatigue, mental fatigue, and total fatigue scores of the survey subjects in M (P₂₅, P₇₅) were 3.00 (2.00, 4.00), 2.00 (1.00, 3.00), and 5.00 (4.00, 6.00), respectively. The comparison results showed that, except for smoking, there were statistically significant differences in total fatigue scores between different groups of age, marital status, number of children, educational level, service length of freight transportation, average daily working time, and average monthly income (P<0.05). The difference in total fatigue score among the groups without sleep disorders, with suspected insomnia, and with insomnia was statistically significant (P<0.001). The difference in total fatigue score among the groups without occupational burnout, with moderate occupational burnout, and with severe occupational burnout was also statistically significant (P<0.001). Positive correlations were found between insomnia score and scores of physical fatigue (r_s=0.507), mental fatigue (r_s=0.547), and total fatigue (r_s=0.618) (P<0.001). Hierarchical regression models revealed that having more children, extended daily working hours, insomnia, and increased scores of decreased personal accomplishment were negative factors affecting the fatigue status of heavy-duty commercial truck drivers (P<0.05), and the final regression equation was: total fatigue score=7.579+0.581×number of children+0.916×average daily working time+0.434×score of AIS+0.754×score of reduced personal accomplishment. Conclusion The fatigue status of heavy-duty commercial truck drivers is not optimistic. An increase in the number of children, extended daily working hours, severe insomnia symptoms, and increased scores of decreased personal accomplishment associate with their worse fatigue status.

OBJECTIVE To establish high performance liquid chromatography （HPLC） fingerprint of Xiaohe syrup and determine the contents of 10 effective ingredients in them. METHODS With 12 batches of Xiaohe syrup as samples， ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry （UPLC-MS/MS） was adopted with Athena C18 （250 mm×4.6 mm， 5 μm） as the chromatographic column， acetonitrile-0.1% phosphoric acid aqueous solution as mobile phase for gradient elution. The flow rate was 1.0 mL/min， and the detection wavelength was 210 nm. Similarity Evaluation System for Traditional Chinese Medicine Chromatographic Fingerprint （2012A version） was imported to establish the fingerprint of Xiaohe syrup and evaluate the similarity. The content determination was performed on ACQUITY UPLC BEH C18（ 100 mm×2.1 mm， 1.7 μm） chromatographic column， with 0.01% formic acid acetonitrile-0.01% formic acid water as mobile phase for gradient elution at a flow rate of 0.4 mL/min； combined with high-resolution mass spectrometer， positive and negative ions were scanned with an electric spray ion source to determine the content of each main component in 12 batches of Xiaohe syrup. RESULTS A total of 33 common peaks were calibrated in 12 batches of samples， with similarities greater than 0.97； 10 chromatographic peaks were confirmed， namely flavonoid glycosides， paeoniflorin， ferulic acid， naringin， rosmarinic acid， neohesperidin， salvianolic acid B， tetrahydropalmatine， saikosaponin A， and saikosaponin D. The results of content determination showed that the above 10 components had good linear relationships within their respective mass concentration ranges （all R 2＞0.999）， with contents ranging from 0.35 to 0.64， 3.15 to 5.61， 0.11 to 0.17， 1.68 to 3.17， 1.59 to 1.90， 1.15 to 1.64， 0.78 to 1.48， 0.11 to 0.26， 0.06 to 0.13， and 0.33 to 0.61 mg/mL， respectively. CONCLUSIONS The main components of 12 batches of Xiaohe syrup are similar， but the contents vary； HPLC fingerprint and UPLC-MS/MS content determination method established in this study can be used for comprehensive quality evaluation of Xiaohe syrup.

Objective:To investigate the sensitivity of tumor organoids derived from samples of colorectal cancer to lobaplatin and oxaliplatin hyperthermic perfusion in vitro and to assist clinical development of hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy. Method:Tumor samples and relevant clinical data were collected from patients with pathologically confirmed colorectal cancer in the Sixth Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University from July 2021 to December 2022. Organoids were cultured and tumor tissue were passaged. In vitro hyperthermic perfusion experiments were performed on organoids with good viability. Firstly, 10 organoids were treated with oxaliplatin and lobaplatin at the following six concentrations: 1 000, 250, 62.5, 15.6, 3.9, and 0.98 μmol/L. The organoids were exposed to oxaliplatin at 42℃ for 30 minutes and to lobaplatin at 42℃ for 60 minutes. Dose-response curves of responses to in vitro hyperthermic perfusion with these two drugs were constructed and evaluated. Clinical doses of oxaliplatin and lobaplatin were further tested on 30 organoids. This testing revealed oxaliplatin was effective at 579 μmol/L at a hyperthermic perfusion temperature of 42℃ for 30 min and lobaplatin was effective at 240 μmol/L at a hyperthermic perfusion temperature of 42℃ for 60 minutes. Result:Thirty-two tumor organoids were cultured from samples of colorectal cancer. The median concentration required for oxaliplatin to eliminate 50% of tumor cells (IC50) was 577.45 μmol/L (IQR: 1846.09 μmol/L). The median IC50 for lobaplatin was 85.04 μmol/L (IQR: 305.01 μmol/L).The difference between the two groups was not statistically significant ( Z=1.784, P=0.084). In seven of 10 organoids, lobaplatin showed a greater IC50 after in vitro hyperthermic perfusion than did oxaliplatin. Testing of 30 organoids with clinical doses of oxaliplatin and lobaplatin revealed that oxaliplatin achieved an average inhibition rate of 39.6% (95%CI: 32.1%?47.0%), whereas the average rate of inhibition for lobaplatin was 89.7% (95%CI: 87.0%?92.3%): this difference is statistically significant ( t=?15.282, P<0.001). Conclusion:The rate of inhibition achieved by hyperthermic perfusion of lobaplatin in vitro is better than that achieved by hyperthermic perfusion with oxaliplatin. Lobaplatin is more effective than oxaliplatin when administered by hyperthermic intraperitoneal perfusion and therefore has the potential to replace oxaliplatin in this setting.

Tumor-associated macrophages(TAMs)are the predominant cell group in the tumor microenvironment(TME)and are the most important regulatory cells of immune system suppression and tumor cell proliferation in TIME.Src homology-2 domain-containing protein tyrosine phosphatase 2(SHP-2)is a non-receptor protein tyrosine phosphatase that plays an important role in the transmission of signals from the cell surface to the nucleus.SHP-2 is a key intracellular regulatory factor mediating cell proliferation and differentiation and is involved in a variety of growth factor and cytokine signaling pathways linking the cell surface to the nucleus.Recent studies have shown that SHP-2 is a key enzyme in determining the function of TAMs,but because of its variable function,it plays different or even opposite roles in different solid TMEs.This paper reviews the function of SHP-2 in TAMs and related solid tumors to provide a comprehensive reference for tumor immunity and targeted therapy research.

Objective To study the protective effect and possible mechanism of dexmedetomidine on sevoflurane-induced cognitive impairment.Methods 40 rats were randomly divided into a blank group,model group,dexmedetomidine group,and combination group,10 for each group.A rat model of sevoflurane-induced cognitive impairment was established in the model group,dexmedetomidine group,and combination group.The dexmedetomidine group and combination group were intraperitoneally injected with dexmedetomidine of 50 μg/kg 30 min before modeling,so was the combination group injected with sulindac of 5 mg/kg.The blank group and model group were intravenously injected with equal amount of saline.Morris water maze test was used to detect cognitive function.Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA)was used to detect serum levels of homocysteine(Hcy)and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1(MCP-1);high-performance liquid chromatography was used to detect hippocampal glutamate(Glu)and γ-aminobutyric acid(GABA)contents.Immunoblotting was used to detect hippocampal glycogen synthase kinase 3β(GSK-3β)and β-catenin protein expression levels.Results The escape latency in the dexmedetomidine group rats was shorter than that in the model group(P<0.05),the number of crossing the original platform was greater than that in the model group(P<0.05),and duration staying in the original platform quadrant was longer than that in the model group(P<0.05).The escape latency in the combination group was longer than that in the dexmedetomidine group(P<0.05),the number of crossing the original platform was smaller than that in the dexmedetomidine group(P<0.05),and duration staying in the original platform quad-rant was shorter than that in the dexmedetomidine group(P<0.05).Serum levels of Hcy and MCP-1 were higher in the model group than in the blank group(P<0.05),lower in the dexmedetomidine group than in the model group(P<0.05),and higher in the combination group than in the dexmedetomidine group(P<0.05).Hippocam-pal Glu content was higher in the model group than in the blank group(P<0.05),while GABA content was lower(P<0.05).Hippocampal Glu content was lower in the dexmedetomidine group than in the model group(P<0.05),whereas GABA content was higher group(P<0.05).Hippocampal Glu content was higher in the combination group than in the dexmedetomidine group(P<0.05),and GABA content was lower(P<0.05).Hippocampal GSK-3β protein expression level was higher in the model group than in the blank group(P<0.05),but the β-catenin protein expression level was lower(P<0.05).Hippocampal GSK-3β protein expression level was lower in the dexmedetomidine group than in the model group(P<0.05),while β-catenin protein expression level was higher(P<0.05).Hippocampal GSK-3β protein expression level was higher in the combination group than in the dexme-detomidine group(P<0.05),whereas β-catenin protein expression level was lower(P<0.05).Conclusions Dexmedetomidine may improve cognitive function in rats with sevoflurane-induced cognitive impairment by activat-ing the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway,reducing inflammation,and enhancing neurotransmitter activity.
