ObjectiveTo systematically assess the public health governance capacity in Zhejiang Province, to conduct an in-depth analysis of its strengths and weaknesses, so as to provide scientific basis and strategic recommendations for further enhancement. MethodsA systematic collection of policy documents, public information reports, and research literature related to public health governance capacity in Zhejiang Province from 2002 to 2023 was conducted (encompassing a total of 1 263 policy documents, 138 pieces of information reports and 631 research articles). Based on the evaluation criteria suitable for public health systems previously developed by the research team, the basic status and magnitude of change in public health governance capacity in Zhejiang Province was evaluated. Additionally, normative gap analyses were employed to identify the strengths and weaknesses. ResultsZhejiang Province ranked 4th nationwide in terms of public health governance capacity with a score of 733.4 points (1 000.0-point maximum). The province has effectively implemented the principle of health first (scoring 698.5 points in the assessment of health-first strategy implementation) and attached sufficient importance to health-related goals (scoring 658.2 points in the scientific rationality of goal setting). However, the implementation of inter-departmental coordination and incentive mechanisms only scored 178.7 points, the feasibility of management and monitoring mechanisms scored even lower at only 144.0 points, and the coverage of incentive mechanisms scored 286.0 points. ConclusionZhejiang Province has effectively implemented its health first strategy and attached great importance to health targets, but still needs to strengthen cross-departmental coordination mechanisms and health-oriented incentives.

ObjectiveThis study aims to investigate the dynamic changes in general body parameters, blood glucose, and blood lipid profiles in obese cynomolgus monkeys, exploring the correlations among these parameters and providing a reference for research on the obese cynomolgus monkey model. Methods30 normal male cynomolgus monkeys aged 5 - 17 years old (with body mass index < 35 kg/m² and glycated hemoglobin content < 4.50%) and 99 spontaneously obese male cynomolgus monkeys (with body mass index ≥35 kg/m² and glycated hemoglobin content < 4.50%) were selected. Over a period of three years, their abdominal circumference, skinfold thickness, body weight, body mass index, fasting blood glucose, glycated hemoglobin, and four blood lipid indicators were monitored. The correlations between each indicator were analyzed using repeated measurement ANOVA, simple linear regression, and multiple linear regression correlation analysis method. Results Compared to the control group, the obese group exhibited significantly higher levels of abdominal circumference, skinfold thickness, body weight, body mass index, and triglyceride (P<0.05). In the control group, skinfold thickness increased annually, while other indicators remained stable. Compared with the first year, the obese group showed significantly increased abdominal circumference, skinfold thickness, body weight, body mass index, triglyceride, and fasting blood glucose in the second year(P<0.05), with this increasing trend persisting in the third year (P<0.05). In the control group, the obesity incidence rates in the second and third years were 16.67% and 23.33%, respectively, while the prevalence of diabetes remained at 16.67%. In the obese group, the diabetes incidence rates were 29.29% and 44.44% in years 2 and 3, respectively. Among the 11-13 year age group, the incidence rates were 36.36% and 44.68%, while for the group older than 13 years, the rates were 28.13% and 51.35%. Correlation analysis revealed significant associations (P<0.05) between fasting blood glucose and age, abdominal circumference, skinfold thickness, body weight, and triglyceride in the diabetic monkeys. Conclusion Long-term obesity can lead to the increases in general physical indicators and fasting blood glucose levels in cynomolgus monkeys, and an increase in the incidence of diabetes. In diabetic cynomolgus monkeys caused by obesity, there is a high correlation between their fasting blood glucose and age, weight, abdominal circumference, skinfold thickness, and triglyceride levels, which is of some significance for predicting the occurrence of spontaneous diabetes.

Objectives:Comparative analysis of the beagles acute-phase electrocardiographic,hemodynamic,left ventricular flow field status,and energy consumption characteristics of pacing at different sites of conduction system may help to elucidate the scientific mechanism of left bundle branch pacing(LBBP)as a option of physiological pacing therapy.Methods:Eight healthy adult beagles were used in this study.Initially,an active fixation lead was implanted in the right atrial appendage,followed by implantation of another active fixation lead at the right ventricular apex,distal His bundle,and left bundle septal branch,respectively.After connecting a dual-chamber pacemaker,electrocardiographic and acute phase hemodynamic parameters under sinus rhythm,right ventricular apex pacing(RVAP),distal His bundle pacing(DHBP),and LBBP states were collected and analyzed.Three complete cardiac cycles of standard apical three-chamber color Doppler dynamic images were acquired under vector flow mapping(VFM)mode.Offline analysis was performed on obtained parameters including isovolumic contraction period,rapid ejection period,isovolumic relaxation period,rapid filling period,atrial contraction period,and left ventricular intracavitary energy consumption.These parameters were compared under pacing at different sites and the linear correlations of major parameters were analyzed.Results:The QRS duration of baseline intrinsic sinus rhythm,RVAP,DHBP and LBBP were(45.0±4.0)ms,(98.4±6.2)ms,(50.0±4.5)ms and(62.0±4.7)ms,respectively.The LBBP-QRS duration was significantly wider than intrinsic sinus rhythm and DHBP,but significantly narrower than RVAP(all P<0.01).Compared with baseline AOO mode(the pacing rate was performed at 10 beats/min above the intrinsic heart rate),the change of acute phase maximum left ventricular pressure rise rate(LVdP/dtmax)in RVAP,DHBP and LBBP was([-7.89±5.67]% ),([0.74±2.05]% )and([-0.14±3.59]% ),respectively.There was no significant difference in LVdP/dtmax changes between DHBP and LBBP(P=0.667),but both pacing modalities were significantly better than RVAP(all P<0.01).The average energy consumption of the left ventricle under RVAP was significantly higher than that of intrinsic sinus rhythm,DHBP,and LBBP in isovolumic contraction period,rapid ejection period,isovolumic relaxation period,rapid filling period,and atrial contraction period(all P<0.01).However,there was no statistically significant difference in energy consumption among intrinsic sinus rhythm,DHBP,and LBBP during the above five phases(all P>0.05).DHBP and LBBP did not show a significant increase in the number of left ventricular vortices,vortex area,and circulation intensity compared to intrinsic sinus rhythm,and LBBP did not show a significant increase in vortex area and circulation intensity compared to DHBP.Conclusions:Although LBBP canines significantly prolonged the paced QRS duration,it showed no significant differences in acute phase left ventricular hemodynamics,left ventricular flow field status,and energy consumption compared to intrinsic sinus rhythm and DHBP.Performance of LBBP was superior to RVAP.This study may contribute to revealing the theoretical basis of LBBP as a feasible physiological pacing therapy.

Background and purpose:China is a country with high incidence rate and mortality of liver cancer.In 2022,there were approximately 368 000 cases of liver cancer and 317 000 deaths in China.Extending the survival period of liver cancer patients is an urgent issue that we need to address.In recent years,tyrosine kinase inhibitor(TKI)alone or in combination with immune checkpoint inhibitors have achieved good results in the treatment of primary liver cancer.However,most studies did not include the combination of transcatheter arterial chemoembolization(TACE)treatment.We speculate that combining TKI drugs with immune checkpoint inhibitors and TACE therapy may provide greater benefits to liver cancer patients.Therefore,this study aimed to evaluate the short-term efficacy and safety of TACE combined with anlotinib and sintilimab in the treatment of liver cancer.Methods:This study is a single arm phase Ⅱ clinical trial approved by the ethics committee of The Third People's Hospital of Yibin(ethical approval numbers:2022009).Inclusion criteria:① Age 18-70 years;② Primary liver cancer confirmed by clinical diagnosis or histopathology;③ Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group(ECOG)performance status score of 0-1;④ China Liver Cancer Staging(CNLC)stage Ⅱb-Ⅲb;⑤ Adequate cardiopulmonary function;⑥ Child-Pugh score≤8 points;⑦ At least one measurable tumor lesion according to the modified Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors(mRECIST)version 1.1.From November 1,2021 to March 1,2024,we recruited 61 patients,of whom 39 met the criteria.Firstly,all enrolled patients received TACE treatment.Approximately one week after the initial TACE procedure,12 mg of anlotinib(adjusted according to tolerance)was administered orally on days 1-14,every 3 weeks;Simultaneously 200 mg of sintilimab was administered intravenously on day 1,every 3 weeks.After completing 2 cycles of treatment,efficacy evaluation was conducted according to the modified Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors(mRECIST)1.1.The primary observation indicators of the study were objective response rate(ORR),and the secondary observation indicators were median progression-free survival(mPFS),disease control rate(DCR)and safety.Results:The ORR of this study was 76.9%,DCR was 94.9%,and mPFS was 9.2 months(95%CI:2.317-16.083).39 cases(100%)had grade 1-2 adverse reactions,15 cases(38.5%)had grade 3 adverse reactions,5 cases(12.8%)had grade 4 adverse reactions,and 1 patient died due to upper gastrointestinal bleeding.In the stage mainly treated with TACE combined with TKI and immunotherapy,the incidence of grade 3-4 adverse reactions was higher compared with the stage mainly treated with anlotinib combined with sintilimab.The vast majority of adverse reactions can be recovered through conventional treatment methods.Conclusion:TACE combined with anlotinib and sintilimab has a definite therapeutic effect and overall safety and controllability in the treatment of CNLC stage Ⅱb-Ⅲb liver cancer.This combination therapy may provide a new treatment model for CNLC stage Ⅱb-Ⅲb liver cancer patients.However,further exploration is needed to address the pain,vomiting,decreased appetite,liver function damage,upper gastrointestinal bleeding,and other issues caused by this treatment mode.
