OBJECTIVE To observe the effect of Shixiang plaster on promoting the wound healing of diabetic foot ulcer.METHODS Totally 50 male SPF grade SD rats were prepared to establish the diabetic models by feeding with high glucose and high fat forage and intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin,the rats models that were es-tablished successfully were randomly divided into the model group,the Shixiang plaster group and the Kangfuxin solution group.The models of diabetic ulcers were established.The Shixiang plaster group was treated with exter-nal Shixiang plaster,the Kangfuxin solution group was given external Kangfuxin solution,and the model group was treated with coverage with sterile gauze.The wound healing status of the rats was observed,the wound tis-sues were collected for bacterial culture and hematoxylin-eosin(HE)staining after drug administration for 14 and 28 days,respectively.The expression levels of nuclear factor-red cell-2-related factor 2(Nrf-2),heme oxygenase-1(HO-1),tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α),interleukin-6(IL-6)and vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF)were detected by immunohistochemistry(IHC),the expression levels of Nrf-2 and HO-1 were detected with the use of Western Blot,and the levels of serum malondialdehyde(MDA),superoxide dismutase(SOD)and reactive oxygen species(ROS)were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA).RESULTS After the drug administration for 14 and 28 days,the wound healing rates of the Shixiang plaster group were(62.15±3.82)％and(81.68±3.83)％,respectively,higher than(47.14±2.80)％and(69.96±6.49)％of the Kangfuxin solu-tion group and(29.14±9.52)％and(57.91±6.63)％of the model group,and there were significant differences(F=21.716,12.626,P=0.002,0.007).The bacterial colony counts of the Shixiang plaster group were less than those of the Kangfuxin solution group and the model group after the drug administration for 14 and 28 days(P＜0.05).The result of HE staining showed that the Shixiang plaster group had a better wound healing.The result of IHC indicated that the expression levels of Nrf-2,HO-1 and VEGF of the Kangfuxin solution group and the Shix-iang plaster group were up-regulated after the drug administration for 28 days,while the expression levels of TNF-α and IL-6 were down-regulated.The expression levels of Nrf-2 and HO-1 proteins of the Shixiang plaster group were higher than those of the Kangfuxin solution group and the model group after the drug administration for 14 and 28 days,the levels of serum MDA and ROS of the Shixiang plaster group were lower than those of the Kangfuxin solution group and the model group,and the serum SOD level of the Shixiang plaster group was higher than that of the model group(P＜0.05).CONCLUSIONS Shixiang plaster can effectively promote the wound heal-ing of the rats with diabetic foot ulcers and reduce the bacterial colony counts of wound surfaces.The mechanism may be associated with the alleviation of oxidative stress injury by mediating the Nrf-2/HO-1 signaling pathways,promotion of angiogenesis and inhibition of excessive inflammatory reactions.

Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease(CJD)is a rapidly progressive and fatal neurodegenerative disorder caused by prions,with certain infectivity and iatrogenic transmission risks.With the rapid progress and application of new dia-gnostic biomarkers and detection methods,as well as the construction and improvement of surveillance and reporting systems,the detection of CJD in patients domestically and internationally has shown an increasing trend year by year.Due to its long incubation period and heterogeneity of early symptoms,early identification and diagnosis of the disease is difficult,increasing the risk of transmission within medical institutions.Currently,there is a lack of con-sensus on the infection prevention and control of CJD.In order to timely identify and diagnose CJD as well as effec-tively block its transmission in medical institutions,this consensus summarizes 15 clinical concerns and formulates 24 specific recommendations based on the latest domestic and international research findings and clinical evidence,as well as combines with clinical practice,aiming to standardize healthcare-associated infection prevention and control measures for CJD and reduce its transmission risk in medical institutions.

Objective To investigate the clinical features of thyroid dysfunction in lung cancer patients treated with programmed cell death receptor-1(PD-1)or programmed cell death receptor-ligand 1(PD-L1)and their value for predicting therapeutic efficacy.Methods Lung cancer patients treated with PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors at West China Hospital,Sichuan University between March 2018 and September 2022 were retrospectively enrolled.Data concerning the medical records,therapeutic efficacy,and thyroid function indicators of the patients were retrieved from the hospital electronic medical record information system.The data were then analyzed to identify risk factors and predictive factors for immune-related adverse events(irAEs)of the thyroid.The predictive value of thyroid irAEs for treatment efficacy and prognosis was assessed.Objective response rate(ORR)was defined as the indicator for therapeutic efficacy and progression-free survival(PFS)was defined as the prognostic indicator.Results A total of 368 lung cancer patients were enrolled.Among them,31.5％(116/368)developed thyroid irAEs.According to the results of logistic regression analysis,baseline thyroid stimulating hormone(TSH)concentration and baseline positive results for thyroglobulin antibody(TGAb)and thyroid peroxidase antibody(TPOAb)were risk factors for thyroid dysfunction caused by PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors.Among the three measures,baseline TPOAb concentration demonstrated good predictive value for thyroid irAEs,with an area under the receiver-operating characteristic(ROC)curve(AUC)of 0.745.Patients with thyroid irAEs had a longer median PFS(16.0 months vs.9.7 months,P＜0.001)and a higher ORR(55.2％vs.34.9％,P＜0.001)compared to those without thyroid irAEs.Patients with thyroid irAEs had a better ORR than those without thyroid irAEs did.It was more likely for patients with thyroid irAEs to achieve an objective response compared to those without thyroid irAEs(odds ratio[OR]=2.29;95％CI,1.46-3.60).Conclusion In lung cancer patients treated with the PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors,the TPOAb antibody demonstrates good predictive value for thyroid irAEs.Patients who develop thyroid irAEs have better treatment outcomes and prognosis.

Objective To investigate the density,species composition,and seasonal prevalence of domestic rodents in different habitats within Lanzhou garrisons,providing basic information for rodent prevention and control.Methods A total of 12 monitoring sites were sampled across urban,suburban,and rural residential areas from 2014 to 2022.Rodent density was monitored using the night-trapping method in the middle of odd-numbered months.Results From 2014 to 2022,346 domestic rodents were captured using 122 035 effective traps,with an average domestic rodent density of 0.28％.The highest domestic rodent density was 0.63％in 2016,and the lowest was 0.07％in 2020,showing significant differences across years,with an overall trend of initially decreasing and then increasing(χ2=136.555,P<0.001).The dominant species was Rattus norvegicus,accounting for 83.24％of the total rodents captured.Rattus norvegicus accounted for a relatively high proportion across different years,with a statistically significant difference in species composition(χ2=20.931,P<0.05).Rodent densities and species composition also varied significantly among the monitored habitats(P<0.001),with the highest densities observed in rural residential areas and the lowest in urban areas.Seasonal variation in rodent densities showed a bimodal pattern,with smaller peaks in January or March and a larger peak in July.Conclusions Domestic rodent density in Lanzhou garrisons has shown an upward trend in the past few years.Rodent control measures should focus on barracks in rural residential areas,with targeted interventions to reduce the risk of rodent-borne diseases.
