Objective This study reports on the obligatory parasitism of water mites Arrenurus sp. on Anopheles messeae at the Manzhouli Port, Inner Mongolia, China. Methods Duing July 2024, a survey on the mosquito diversity was conducted at the Manzhouli Port. Captured mosquitoes and their ectoparasites were identified to species level. Results A total of 1840 adult mosquitoes were collected, representing species from three genera: Culex(Cx. modestus, Cx. pipiens pallens), Aedes(Ae. dorsalis, Ae. flavidorsalis, Ae. flavescens), and Anopheles (An. messeae). Among all the mosqutioes specimens,3 out of 150 captured An. messeae were found to carry ectoparasitic mites, with number of 2,4,27 mites separately. Morphological and molecular identification reached the same result as water mites(Hydrachnidiae, Hydracrina). COI gene sequence showed 94% similarity with the closest species Arrenurus truncatellus. Conlusions Literature review suggests water mites are host-specific parasitism of mosquito species and herein with the first record of Arrenurus sp. parasiting on An. Messeae in the most high-latitude region globally.

Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy of extended abdominal wall resec-tion combined with reconstruction for abdominal wall aggressive fibromatosis (AF).Methods:The retrospective and descriptive study was conducted. The clinical data of 70 patients with abdominal wall AF who were admitted to 3 medical centers, including The First Affiliated Hospital of the University of Science and Technology of China, between January 2009 and July 2024 were collected. There were 6 males and 64 females, aged (36±13)years. All patients underwent extended abdominal wall resection combined with abdominal wall reconstruction. Observation indicators: (1) surgical situations; (2) tumor recurrence and postoperative complications. Comparisons of measurement data with skewed distribution between groups was conducted using the Mann-Whitney U test. Comparison of count data between groups was conducted using the chi-square test. Results:(1)Surgical situations. All 70 patients underwent extended abdominal wall resection combined with abdominal wall recons-truction. The operation time was 90(91)minutes and duration of postoperative hospital stay was 10(6)days. Of the 70 patients, 41 patients underwent abdominal wall AF resection plus polypropylene mesh abdominal wall reconstruction, with a defect area of 60(54)cm2. The mesh placement method was uniformly Sublay repair. The remaining 29 patients underwent abdominal wall AF resection plus direct suture repair, with a defect area of 34(31)cm2. There was a significant difference in the abdominal wall defect area between the two groups ( U=291.00, P<0.05). All 70 patients achieved R 0 resection. The distance from surgical margin to tumor edge was 2-3 cm in 39 cases and >3 cm in 31 cases. (2) Tumor recurrence and postoperative complications. All 70 patients were followed up for 78(90)months. During follow-up, 10 patients developed tumor recurrence (5 cases with mesh reinforced abdominal wall reconstruction and 5 cases with direct suture repair). Among them, one case was monitored, one case underwent radiotherapy, and neither received further surgical treatment. The remaining 8 patients underwent repeat R 0 resection, and no further recurrence occurred. There was no significant difference in recurrence rate between the patients with mesh reconstruction and patients with direct suture repair ( χ2=0.06, P>0.05). The postoperative recurrence rate was 9.7%(3/31) in patients with the distance from surgical margin to tumor edge >3 cm, versus 17.9%(7/39) in patients with the distance from surgical margin to tumor edge of 2-3 cm, showing no significant difference between them ( χ2=0.97, P>0.05). Sixty patients had no tumor recurrence. During follow-up, none of the 70 patients developed incisional hernia. Two patients experienced postoperative wound infection, and 6 cases developed postoperative chronic pain. Conclusion:Extended abdominal wall resection combined with reconstruction is safe and feasible for abdominal wall AF.

Objective:To develop a multi-parameter diagnostic model for pediatric McCune-Albright syndrome(MAS) using machine learning techniques based on laboratory data from MAS patients, with the goal of providing a rapid and reliable auxiliary diagnostic tool for clinical practice.Methods:In this retrospective study, 232 children diagnosed with MAS at the Department of Pediatrics, Ruijin Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine from March 2023 to November 2024 were enrolled as the positive group. After removing duplicate or missing data, 119 cases were finally selected for statistical analysis as the positive group. Meanwhile, 113 children with normal physical examinations during the same period were selected as the control group. The clinical manifestations of the classic " triad" in the positive group were documented. Fasting serum samples were obtained from both groups at 8: 00 AM for laboratory testing, including bone metabolism-related and hormone-related indicators, which served as candidate features. Baseline descriptive analysis was conducted on the hormone-related indicators. For the bone metabolism indicators, six machine learning models—support vector machine(SVM), XGBoost, decision tree, random forest, Logistic regression, and K-nearest neighbor(KNN)—were constructed using R software. XGBoost subgroup analysis was performed based on the triad symptoms. The contribution of individual features to model predictions was visualized using SHAP diagrams. Results:SHAP visualization indicated that age, serum phosphorus, osteocalcin, and β-C-terminal cross-linked telopeptide of type Ⅰ collagen had the greatest average impact on model predictions. Among the six models, the SVM model achieved the highest diagnostic performance, with a sensitivity of 0.742 9, a specificity of 0.909 1, and an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.917.Conclusion:This study demonstrates that machine learning models, based on data from the positive patients and normal controls, can effectively distinguish MAS patients from healthy controls. The diagnostic model developed offers clinicians a valuable tool for early detection of MAS in children, contributing to earlier diagnosis, timely intervention, and improved clinical management.

Body weight abnormalities, including overweight, obesity, and underweight, have become a dual public health challenge in Chinese adults: overweight and obesity lead to a variety of chronic complications, while underweight increases the risks of malnutrition, sarcopenia, and organ dysfunction. To systematically address these issues, multidisciplinary experts in endocrinology, sports science, nutrition, and psychiatry from various regions have held multiple weight management seminars. Based on the latest epidemiological data and clinical evidence, they expanded the guideline to include assessment and intervention strategies for underweight, in addition to the core content of obesity management. This guideline outlines the etiological mechanisms, evaluation methods, and multidimensional management strategies for overweight and obesity, covering key areas such as diagnosis and assessment, medical nutrition therapy, exercise prescription, pharmacological intervention, and psychological support. It is intended to provide a scientific and standardized approach to weight management across the adult population, aiming to curb the rising prevalence of obesity, mitigate complications associated with abnormal body weight, and improve nutritional status and overall quality of life.

Objective To investigate the neurological function recovery and prognosis by comparing robot-guided puncture drainage and medicine treatment for small to moderate volume(15-30 ml)hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage in the basal ganglia.Methods Clinical data of 68 patients with small to moderate volume hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage in the basilar ganglia treated in our department from January 2022 to January 2024 were retrospectively analyzed.According to the treatment methods,they were divided into operation group and medicine group,in which the operation group(n=30)received robot-guided puncture and drainage treatment and the medicine group(n=38)received simple medicine treatment.Parameters of the two groups were compared,including time for hematoma to dissipate,length of hospital stay,hospital cost,duration of mannitol use,pulmonary infection rate,National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale(NIHSS)score and Scandinavia Stroke Scale(SSS)score at time immediately after admission and 2 weeks later,and modified Rankin Scale(mRS)score at the time immediately after admission and 3 months later.Results There were no significant differences in the length of stay,duration of mannitol use,and pulmonary infection rate between the two groups(P＞0.05).The hematoma dissipation time was 10.0(8.5,13.0)din the operation group and 28.5(25.0,35.0)din the medicine group,which had significant difference(Z=-4.285,P=0.000).The hospital cost was(77 786.5±21 763.0)yuan in the operation group and(31 843.5±14 514.3)yuan in the medicine group,which had significant difference(t=5.922,P=0.000).At 14 d after treatment,the NIHSS score in the operation group(8.5±2.7)points was significantly lower than that in the medicine group[(12.0±1.7)points,t=-4.192,P=0.000],and the SSS score in the operation group(28.7±7.2)points was significantly higher than that in the medicine group[(24.2±3.5)points,t=2.164,P=0.041].At 3 months after treatment,the mRS score of the operation group was 3.0(2.0,4.0)points,significantly lower than that of the medicine group[4.0(4.0,4.2)points,Z=-2.508,P=0.012].Conclusion For small to moderate volume hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage in the basal ganglia,robot-guided minimally invasive puncture and drainage treatment can accelerate the dissipation time of hematoma and improve the neurological function and prognosis of patients as compared to medicine treatment.

Objective:To study the relationship between the levels of multiple elements in urine and the risk of arsenic poisoning in populations exposed to drinking water arsenic in Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region (Inner Mongolia).Methods:From April 2023 to January 2024, a case-control study method was used to select 128 individuals with a residence time of ≥10 years in drinking water arsenic exposed areas in Inner Mongolia as study subjects. Eighty-one individuals diagnosed with arsenic poisoning were selected as the case group, and 47 healthy individuals were selected as the control group for urine sample collection and questionnaire survey. Inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry was employed to determine the levels of 10 elements (chromium, manganese, cobalt, nickel, copper, zinc, arsenic, molybdenum, cadmium and lead) in urine. The levels of each element in urine were divided into four groups ( Q1, Q2, Q3, and Q4 groups) based on quartiles. The associations between the levels of various elements in urine and the risk of arsenic poisoning were studied using binary logistic regression model and restricted cubic spline (RCS). Results:The age of the control group and the case group [ M ( Q1, Q3)] were 61 (53, 69) and 61 (56, 67) years old, respectively. There were 19 and 43 males, and 28 and 38 females, respectively. There was no statistically significant differences in age and and gender composition between the two groups ( Z = - 0.39, P = 0.700; χ 2 = 1.91, P = 0.167). The levels of urinary copper and cadmium of the case group were higher than those of the control group, and the differences were statistically significant ( Z = - 2.66, - 2.16, P < 0.05). The results of univariate logistic regression analysis showed that urinary copper was an influencing factor for arsenic poisoning ( P = 0.017). The results of multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that after adjusting for covariates, urinary copper and arsenic were independent influencing factors of arsenic poisoning ( P < 0.05). Taking Q1 group as a reference, urinary copper in Q3 group [ OR (95% CI) = 8.23 (1.81, 37.39), P = 0.006] increased the risk of arsenic poisoning, while urinary arsenic in Q2, Q3, and Q4 groups [ OR (95% CI) = 0.24 (0.06, 0.92), 0.12 (0.03, 0.53), 0.15 (0.04, 0.63), P < 0.05] decreased the risk of arsenic poisoning. After adjusting for covariates, RCS did not show a dose-response relationship between urinary copper, urinary arsenic, and arsenic poisoning ( P > 0.05). Conclusion:Urinary arsenic and copper are associated with the risk of arsenic poisoning in the drinking water arsenic exposed areas of Inner Mongolia, copper exposure may contribute significantly to arsenic poisoning.

Objective:To understand the etiological surveillance and drug resistance characteristics of Legionella pneumophila (LP) from the aqueous environment of public places in Shanghai, from 2011 to 2020, and provide evidence for surveillance of the disease. Methods:Environmental water samples were systematically collected from public venues in urban and suburban districts of Shanghai for LP surveillance. All the identified LP isolates underwent a series of testings including serotyping, pulsed field gel electrophoresis (PFGE), sequence-based typing, and antimicrobial susceptibility testing. χ2 test or Cochran-Armitage trend tests were used for statistical analysis and for temporal resistance patterns. Results:Among 6 263 water samples, the LP-positive rate was 20.93% (1 311/6 263). The positivity rate decreased from 24.98% (287/1 149) in 2011-2012 to 20.02% (1 024/5 114) in 2013-2020 ( χ2=13.92, P<0.001), with the highest monthly positivity observed from June to August (23.79%, 745/3 132). A total of 1 365 LP strains were isolated, of which 912 were further characterized, including 10 serotypes, 149 PFGE patterns, and 33 sequence types (ST). The predominant serotype was Lp1 (86.84%, 792/912), and the dominant ST was ST752 (29.50%, 269/912). ST clustering revealed two major clonal groups CG1 and CG2, accounting for 91.12% (831/912) of the isolates. The 190 LPs involved in the drug sensitivity test showed three resistance profiles: azithromycin resistance (31.05%, 59/190), ciprofloxacin resistance (0.53%, 1/190) and azithromycin+ciprofloxacin resistance (0.53%, 1/190). Azithromycin-resistant strains were predominantly ST1 (64.41%, 38/59). The antimicrobial resistance rate showed a significant decline, from 48.65% (18/37) in 2011-2012 to 28.10% (43/153) in 2013-2020 ( χ2=9.38, P=0.002). Conclusions:Compared to from 2011 to 2012, both the positivity rate and antimicrobial resistance prevalence of LP in public aqueous environments of Shanghai exhibited an overall decline from 2013 to 2020. The predominant types of LP were serotype Lp1 and sequence type ST752, with notable high-level resistance to azithromycin. Measures as enhancing the enforcement of water safety regulations and prioritizing surveillance of azithromycin resistance in LP were recommended to mitigate public health risks.

In surgical diagnosis and treatment,the perioperative period is a comprehensive diagnosis and treatment process,including the rational application of antibiotics,nutrition management,pain management,blood pressure,blood sugar man-agement,and other processes.Perioperative pharmaceutical care has become one of the innovative fields of pharmaceutical care.In order to ensure the work and service quality of perioperative pharmaceutical care,the preparation team of perioperative pharmaceu-tical care standards takes scientific,universal,and practical principles as the basic principles,reviews the key points and difficul-ties from the three aspects of relevant national policy documents,relevant domestic and foreign standards and norms,and literature analysis,and combines the actual situation of perioperative pharmaceutical care.This pharmaceutical care standard was formulated after several rounds of opinion solicitation and expert argumentation.This paper analyzes the key contents of the standard,inclu-ding the basic requirements,service process,quality control,and evaluation and improvement of perioperative pharmaceutical care,so as to provide reference suggestions for medical structure managers and pharmacists who carry out perioperative pharma-ceutical care to deeply understand and practice this standard,so as to improve perioperative pharmaceutical care.

This study was aimed at establishing a method of ultra-fast quantitative PCR for Brucella detection.We used an exogenous recombinant plasmid as the internal reference and targeted the T4SS secretion system,an important Brucella viru-lence factor,to design specific primers and probes.The sensitivity,specificity,and repeatability of this method were evaluated,and a standard curve was constructed.The coincidence rate of detection findings with this method versus quantitative PCR was determined.This method markedly decreased the detection time to only 10 minutes.The standard curve demonstrated a good linear relationship(Y=-3.410 7x+38.357,R2=0.998 5)with a low minimum detection limit of 10 copies/μL.The method exhibited good specificity and did not specifically amplify several common clinical bacteria other than Brucella.The de-tection of three concentrations of positive plasmids yielded coefficients of variation(CVs)of 0.20％to 0.91％,thus demonstra-ting the method's excellent repeatability.Furthermore,140 clinical samples were analyzed concurrently with the fluorescence PCR method,which yielded a 100％compliance rate and consistent results.Our findings indicated that the Brucella ultra-fast quantitative PCR was ultrafast;had high sensitivity,high specificity,and good specificity;and can be used for the clinical de-tection of Brucella and emergency investigation of epidemics.Therefore,this method is valuable for the early diagnosis of Bru-cella.
