Objective: To construct a scientific and perfect evaluation index system of infectious disease prevention and control ability in colleges and universities, so as to provide reference tools for colleges and universities to effectively respond to infectious disease. Methods: The initial framework of the evaluation index system of infectious disease prevention and control ability in colleges and universities was constructed by using literature analysis method. Experts familiar with infectious disease prevention and control or school health work were selected to conduct two rounds( n =16，18) of Delphi expert consultation for determining the evaluation index system. Analytical hierarchy process was used to calculate the index weights and combined weights. About 198 prevention and control personnel were conveniently selected from 3 universities in Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region to comprehensively evaluate the evaluation indicators by using fuzzy comprehensive evaluation method. Results: After two rounds of Delphi consultation questionnaire, the effective recovery rates were 80.0% and 90.0%, the expert authority levels were 0.89 and 0.86, the expert harmony coefficients for Kendall W were 0.166 and 0.310, and the variation coefficient of each index was <0.25. Finally, the evaluation index system of infectious disease prevention and control ability of colleges and universities included 4 first level indicators, 14 second level indicators and 75 third level indicators. The weights of prevention and monitoring and early warning, organizational system guarantee, emergency management, rehabilitation and summary were 0.176, 0.476, 0.268 and 0.080, respectively. The top 3 weights of the secondary indexes were 0.623 for infectious disease surveillance and early warning, 0.595 for loss assessment and 0.370 for emergency response. The score of fuzzy comprehensive evaluation of the index system of infectious disease prevention and control ability in colleges and universities was 79.148, suggesting a high level. Conclusion The established evaluation index system of infectious disease prevention and control ability in colleges and universities is scientific and reasonable, which is conducive to provide tool reference for the evaluation of infectious disease prevention and control ability in colleges and universities.

Objective To verify the application effect of the muscle strength training based on Fogg behavior model for elderly frail patients,and provide references and bases for subsequent related research.Methods This paper constructed a muscle strength training program for elderly frail patients based on the Fogg behavior model.The exercise intervention process includes the stages of cultivating exercise awareness,scientific fitness guidance,and developing exercise habits.66 elderly frail people aged 60 and above who were hospitalized in 4 geriatric wards of a tertiary A hospital in Beijing from January to March 2022 were recruited,and they were randomly divided into a control group and an intervention group.The intervention group implemented a muscle strength training based on the Fogg behavior model,while the control group was given routine exercise guidance and education for 6 months.The muscle strength,cardiopulmonary function,and glucose and lipid metabolism of the 2 groups were compared at the end of 3 and 6 months of intervention.Results A total of 65 patients with 33 in the control group and 32 in the intervention group completed the study.The muscle strength of the intervention group showed better changes over time at 6 months compared to the control group(P<0.05).In terms of cardiopulmonary function,the intervention group had better lung capacity than the control group at 3 and 6 months,with statistically significant differences(t=2.166,P=0.034;t=3.385,P=0.001).There was no statistically significant difference in heart rates and left ventricular ejection fraction between the groups(P>0.05).In terms of glucose and lipid metabolism,only high-density lipoprotein in the intervention group was found to be superior to it in the control group at 3 and 6 months,with statistically significant differences(t=2.970,P=0.004;t=4.111,P<0.001).There was no statistically significant difference between blood glucose,low-density lipoprotein,total cholesterol,and triglycerides groups(P>0.05).Conclusion The muscle strength training based on the Fogg behavior model can effectively improve the muscle strength and lung function of frail elderly patients,and can also improve blood lipid metabolism to a certain extent,while there is no obvious effect on heart function and blood glucose control.

Objective This study aims to examine the potential mechanism of Shenfu Yixin Granules on heart failure(HF)based on network pharmacology,molecular docking,and experimental verification.Methods(1)The active components of herbs in Shenfu Yixin Granules were screened and retrieved through the Traditional Chinese Medicine Systems Pharmacology Database and Analysis Platform(TCMSP).PubChem database and Swiss Target Prediction platform were used to predict targets.GeneCards and OMIM databases were used to screen HF-related targets.The intersection of active ingredient targets of Shenfu Yixin Granules and HF-related targets was performed by using Venny 2.1.0 platform to obtain common targets,which were the potential targets for anti-HF effect of Shenfu Yixin Granules.The potential targets were imported into the STRING database to construct a protein-protein interaction(PPI)network and screen the core targets of Shenfu Yixin Granules for the treatment of HF.GO functional and KEGG pathway enrichment analysis of potential targets were carried out by using DAVID database.AutoDock Vina software was used for molecular docking validation of key active ingredients and core targets.(2)SD rats were randomly allocated into sham operation group,model group,Shenfu Yixin Granules(5.28 g·kg-1)group,and positive control group(sacubitril-valsartan,20.8 mg·kg-1),with eight rats in each group.A rat model of HF after myocardial infarction was established by ligating the left anterior descending coronary artery.The rats were subsequently administered orally with the corresponding drugs once daily for a period of four weeks.Cardiac function including left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF)and left ventricular fraction shortening(LVFS)in rats was assessed by echocardiography.Additionally,the histopathological alterations in rat heart tissue were examined using hematoxylin-eosin(HE)staining and Masson staining.The serum levels of brain natriuretic peptide(BNP),artial natriuretic peptide(ANP),and aldosterone(ALD)were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA).Furthermore,real-time quantitative PCR and Western Blot were employed to detect mRNA and protein expressions of CAV1、F2 and MAPK1 in heart tissue.Results(1)A total of 210 active ingredients and 1 196 targets of Shenfu Yixin Granules,as well as 801 HF-related targets were obtained.Venny 2.1.0 platform was used to acquire 97 potential targets(common targets)of Shenfu Yixin Granules for the treatment of HF.Key active ingredients,such as quercetin,luteolin,arachidonic acid,kaempferol,and tanshinaldehyde were screened by"drugs-active ingredients-disease-targets"network analysis.The core targets including MAPK1、F2、CAV1、EDN1 and GJA1 were identified through PPI network analysis.The potential targets are mainly concentrated in multiple biological processes,namely,the positive regulation of gene expression,cardiac development,and the positive regulation of MAPK cascade,and involve multi key pathways including MAPK signaling pathway,HIF-1 signaling pathway and PI3K/Akt signaling pathway etc.Good binding activities were observed between MAPK1,CAV1,EDN1,F2 and quercetin,luteolin,kaempferol,tanshinaldehyde,as well as MAPK1,F2 and arachidonic acid.(2)Compared with sham operation group,LVEF and LVFS of rats significantly reduced(P＜0.01),heart mass index obviously increased(P＜0.05)in the model group.Myocardial tissue appears obvious pathological damage,and the degree of interstitial fibrosis was serious.The collagen volume fraction of the heart significantly increased(P＜0.01).The levels of serum BNP,ANP and ALD significantly increased(P＜0.01).The mRNA and protein expressions of CAV1、F2 and MAPK1 in heart tissue significantly increased(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).Compared with the model group,LVEF and LVFS of rats obviously increased(P＜0.01),but the decrease in heart mass index was not significant(P＞0.05)in Shenfu Yixin Granules group and positive control group.The pathological damage in myocardial tissues was significantly improved,the degree of interstitial fibrosis was significantly reduced.The collagen volume fraction of the heart significantly decreased(P＜0.01).The levels of serum BNP,ANP and ALD significantly decreased(P＜0.01).The mRNA and protein expressions of CAV1、F2 and MAPK1 in heart tissue significantly decreased(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).Conclusion Shenfu Yixin Granules may improve heart function and myocardial fibrosis in heart failure rats through the interaction between the active ingredients(quercetin,luteolin,arachidonic acid,kaempferol,and tanshinaldehyde)and targets(MAPK1,F2,CAV-1,and EDN1),so as to regulate MAPK signaling pathway and PI3K/Akt 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.

Projection micro stereolithography three-dimensional(3D)printing method was proposed in this study to fabricate complex microchannels of combined cross-sections.By using 3D printing and polydimethylsiloxane(PDMS)replication methods,two inertial microfluidic chips of three-step and five-step cross-sections were fabricated,and the dimension precisions of the microchannels were controlled within 20 μm.Using the microfluidic chips,the movements of two fluorescent polystyrene particles with diameters of 10 and 6 μm in the stepped channels were investigated.In addition,numerical simulations were applied to demonstrate the inertial focusing mechanisms of particles in the channels.It was found that 10-μm particles had three equilibrium positions in the three-step channel,which located at the inner walls of the three steps,respectively,and most particles focused at the inner step.The 6-μm particles also had three equilibrium positions in the three-step channel.However,the particles migrated to the middle and the outer steps under high flow rates.In the five-step channel,when the flow rate was increased gradually,10-μm particles had a single and two equilibrium positions,respectively,and the particles migrated towards the inner channel wall under high flow rates.In comparison to 10-μm particles,6-μm particles had two stable equilibrium positions in the five-step channel at all flow rate range.It could be concluded that the quantity,shape and strength of the secondary flow vortex could be altered by changing structure of the combined cross-section,thus the equilibrium positions and quantities of the focusing particles could be also regulated.The research outcome might provide new insights for precise cell inertial manipulation and promote the application and development of inertial microfluidic technology in biomedical and other fields.

Objective To explore the phenotypic conversion of regulatory T cells (Tregs) in the lungs of mice with bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD)-affected mice. Methods A total of 20 newborn C57BL/6 mice were divided into air group and hyperoxia group, with 10 mice in each group. The BPD model was established by exposing the newborn mice to hyperoxia. Lung tissues from five mice in each group were collected on postnatal days 7 and 14, respectively. Histopathological changes of the lung tissues was detected by HE staining. The expression level of surfactant protein C (SP-C) in the lung tissues was examined by Western blot analysis. Flow cytometry was performed to assess the proportion of FOXP3⁺ Tregs and RORγt⁺FOXP3⁺ Tregs in CD4⁺ lymphocytes. The concentrations of interleukin-17A (IL-17A) and IL-6 in lung homogenate were measured by using ELISA. Spearman correlation analysis was used to analyze the correlation between FOXP3⁺Treg and the expression of SP-C and the correlation between RORγt⁺FOXP3⁺ Tregs and the content of IL-17A and IL-6. Results The hyperoxia group exhibited significantly decreased levels of SP-C and radical alveolar counts in comparison to the control group. The proportion of FOXP3⁺Tregs was reduced and that of RORγt⁺FOXP3⁺Tregs was increased. IL-17A and IL-6 concentrations were significantly increased. SP-C was positively correlated with the expression level of RORγt⁺FOXP3⁺ Tregs. RORγt⁺FOXP3⁺ Tregs and IL-17A and IL-6 concentrations were also positively correlated. Conclusion The number of FOXP3⁺ Tregs in lung tissue of BPD mice is decreased and converted to RORγt⁺ FOXP3⁺ Tregs, which may be involved in hyperoxy-induced lung injury.

Originating but free from chromosomal DNA, extrachromosomal circular DNAs (eccDNAs) are organized in circular form and have long been found in unicellular and multicellular eukaryotes. Their biogenesis and function are poorly understood as they are characterized by sequence homology with linear DNA, for which few detection methods are available. Recent advances in high-throughput sequencing technologies have revealed that eccDNAs play crucial roles in tumor formation, evolution, and drug resistance as well as aging, genomic diversity, and other biological processes, bringing it back to the research hotspot. Several mechanisms of eccDNA formation have been proposed, including the breakage-fusion-bridge (BFB) and translocation-deletion-amplification models. Gynecologic tumors and disorders of embryonic and fetal development are major threats to human reproductive health. The roles of eccDNAs in these pathological processes have been partially elucidated since the first discovery of eccDNA in pig sperm and the double minutes in ovarian cancer ascites. The present review summarized the research history, biogenesis, and currently available detection and analytical methods for eccDNAs and clarified their functions in gynecologic tumors and reproduction. We also proposed the application of eccDNAs as drug targets and liquid biopsy markers for prenatal diagnosis and the early detection, prognosis, and treatment of gynecologic tumors. This review lays theoretical foundations for future investigations into the complex regulatory networks of eccDNAs in vital physiological and pathological processes.

Objective　To assess the willingness of students with latent tuberculosis infection (LTBI) in Jiangsu Province to undergo preventive treatment and identify factors influencing their decision, aiming to provide insights for tuberculosis prevention and control strategies in school. Methods The physical examination information of tuberculosis latent infection cases was collected from screenings of new school enrollment and contacts of tuberculosis patients in 6 cities of Jiangsu Province from December 2022 to December 2023. Data on past medical history and understanding of preventive treatment were gathered through an online questionnaire survey on the website of Juanxing, and the influencing factors related to the willingness to take preventive medication were analyzed by logistic regression analysis model. Results In December 2022 to December 2023, a total of 13 school tuberculosis outbreaks occurred in 6 cities, and 1 661 contacts were screened, among which 162 cases met the criteria for prophylactic medication, 96 cases were included in the study by filling in the questionnaire. A total of 22 600 new students from 56 schools participated in the TB screening upon enrollment, of which 358 tested positive for the tuberculin skin test alone, meeting the criteria for preventive medication, and 251 of them completed the willingness survey. Finally, 347 students who met the criteria for preventive treatment were included in the study, with 164 expressing to accept preventive treatment representing a treatment acceptance rate of 47.3%. The results of multivariate analysis showed that university (OR=17.950, 95%CI: 3.078-104.686, P=0.001) and contact with the source of school tuberculosis epidemic (OR=19.542, 95%CI: 6.289-60.726, P<0.001) were associated with increased willingness to receive preventive treatment, while unclear whether to pay for the drugs themselves (OR=0.349, 95%CI:0.133-0.916, P=0.032) was associated with decreased willingness to receive preventive treatment. Compared with Huai'an City, the willingness to receive preventive treatment was significantly lower among students from Nantong City (OR=0.005, 95%CI:0.000-0.063, P<0.001), Nanjing City (OR=0.022, 95%CI: 0.003-0.703, P<0.001) and Lianyungang City (OR=0.074, 95%CI:0.008-0.703, P=0.023). Conclusions The acceptance rate of preventive treatment among LTBI students in Jiangsu Province is not high and is affected by multiple factors. Health education and medication mobilization for preventive medication are essential.
