Objective: To evaluate the effectiveness for the construction of "mosquito-free village" in Xuejia Village, Pujiang County, Zhejiang Province, so as to provide the guidance for the construction of "mosquito-free village" in other rural areas. Methods: Density of adult mosquitoes in Xuejia Village was investigated using light trap method and density of larval mosquitoes was investigated using larval straw method from April to November each year. Totally 30 households of villagers were randomly selected, and their awareness rates of mosquito control knowledge, mosquito control behavior forming rates and satisfaction rates were surveyed through questionnaires. Investment during construction (from August 2016 to December 2018) and maintenance period (from 2019 to 2023) of "mosquito-free village" were investigated through data review and interviews. Long-term effects of "mosquito-free village" construction in Xuejia Village were evaluated in terms of mosquito density from 2016 to 2023, effectiveness of health education for villagers, satisfaction and investment. Results: Compared with the year 2016, the densities of adult and larval mosquitoes in Xuejia Village were significantly decreased from 2017 to 2023. The average monthly density of adult mosquitoes in 2023 decreased by 98.34%, and the average monthly 100 household index of larval mosquitoes decreased by 98.45% compared to 2016. The average monthly density of adult mosquitoes from 2019 to 2023 was less than or equal to one mosquito per light trap in a night, and the average monthly 100 household index of larval mosquitoes was less than or equal to five places per 100 households. The awareness rate of mosquito control knowledge was 93.33%, the behavior forming rate was 86.67%, and the satisfaction rate was 90.00%. By December 2023, the total investment during construction and maintenance period was 450 thousand Yuan, with an average annual investment of 60.7 thousand Yuan and average annual investment of 206.61 Yuan per household. The average annual investment during maintenance period was 36.2 thousand Yuan, and the average annual investment per household was 109.70 Yuan. Conclusion The mosquito density, effectiveness of health education for villagers and satisfaction of "mosquito-free village" in Xuejia Village all meet the evaluation criteria of "mosquito-free village", and the investment is reasonable, making it suitable for promotion to other rural areas.

Objective To study the correlation between semen quality and bacterial infection in men with abnormal fer-tility,and provide clinical basis for guiding the reproductive health of men with abnormal fertility.Methods 200 male semen samples with abnormal fertility were collected,and then separated and cultured for 48 hours.According to the culture results,they were divided into three groups:the non-pathogenic group,the pathogenic group,and the sterile group.The bacterial resist-ance analysis of the pathogenic group was conducted,and the semen quality between each group was compared.Results After 48 hours of isolation and cultivation,200 semen samples had been tested,non-pathogenic bacteria was detected in 163 semen samples,accounting for 81.5% ;pathogenic bacteria was detected in 33 semen samples,accounting for 16.5% ;and bacteria was not detected in 4 semen samples,accounting for 2.0% .The top three strains of pathogenic bacteria in 33 cases were Escherichia coli,Streptococcus agalactiae,and Enterococcus faecalis,with drug resistance rates of 80.0% ,87.5% ,and 100.0% ,respec-tively.Conclusion The detection rate of bacterial culture in semen of men with abnormal fertility is relatively high,and patho-genic bacteria can affect semen quality.

Objective:To investigate the relationship between single nucleotide polymorphism (SNPs) of Zeste homolog enhancer 2 (EZH2) gene and the risk of breast cancer.Methods:Recruiting 1 039 breast cancer patients and 1 040 controls at 22 referral hospitals nationwide in China, the genotype distribution of 3 SNPs loci of EZH2 genes was observed to detect the correlation between different genotypes and the risk of breast cancer genotypes EZH2 expression in breast cancer tissues and its correlation with patient prognosis were analyzed using breast cancer data from the database.Results:EZH2 rs6464926 CC genotype was compared with TT genotype (TT vs. CC: OR=1.362, 95% CI: 1.063-1.746, P=0.015) and dominant model (TC+TT vs .CC: OR=1.22, 95% CI: 1.004-1.483, P=0.045) .In women with BMI ≥24 kg/m 2, the TC genotype ( P=0.050), TT genotype ( P=0.025) and dominant model (TC+TT, P=0.021) of rs6464926 locus were significantly different from CC genotype in cancer risk. rs6464926 was correlated with EZH2 gene expression ( P=6.89E-47). EZH2 gene is highly expressed in breast cancer tissues, and patients with high expression were associated with shorter OS ( HR=1.27, P=0.013), DMFS ( HR=1.37, P<0.01), and RFS ( HR=1.44, P<0.01). Conclusions:The polymorphism rs6464926 of EZH2 gene is associated with breast cancer susceptibility in Chinese women. rs6464926 might regulate breast cancer risk and prognosis by changing EZH2 expression.

Background Studies on the association between greenness exposure and allergic rhinitis (AR) in children are mostly conducted in developed countries, and the conclusion is not consistent. Objective Using street view data to explore the association between greenness exposure and allergic rhinitis (AR) prevalence in Chinese children. Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted among 40868 children aged 2-17 years in three cities of Northeast China from 2012 to 2013, which consisted of 20886 (51.1%) boys and 19982 (48.9%) girls. The information of AR prevalence was obtained through questionnaire. Based on downloaded street view images from Tencent Maps, a green view index (GVI) of green vegetation (trees and grass) within 800 m and 1000 m buffer of the participants' schools was calculated by using artificial intelligence, and it was used as a surrogate of the greenness exposure. A mixed-effect logistic regression model was used to estimate the odds ratio (OR) of AR prevalence in children for per increase of inter-quartile range (IQR) of GVI. In addition, according to ambient PM_2.5 concentration, the participants were divided into a low PM_2.5 exposure group (≤56.23 μg·m⁻³) and a high exposure group (>56.23 μg·m⁻³) to investigate whether PM_2.5 was a modifier on the association between GVI and AR. Results The average age of the subjects was (10.40±3.68) years and 3 963 (9.7%) subjects reported diagnosed AR. Within 800 m buffer, an IQR increase in GVI for trees (IQR=0.031, OR=0.85, 95%CI: 0.81-0.90) and overall greenness (IQR=0.029, OR=0.86, 95%CI: 0.81-0.90) was associated with lower adjusted odds ratio of AR. The interaction between PM_2.5 and GVI was statistically significant (P< 0.1), that is, the negative associations of trees and overall greenness with AR were observed only at low PM_2.5 exposure levels. The sensitivity analysis results of GVI within 1000 m buffer was consistent with that within 800 m buffer. Conclusion Exposure to green vegetation, especially trees, may be associated with decreased risks of AR in children, and such associations may be more obvious in areas with a low PM_2.5 concentration.

Background Evidence on the association between greenness and adiposity in children and adolescents is inconsistent and mostly from developed countries. Relatively limited evidence is from China. Objective To assess the association between greenness and adiposity in children and adolescents based on satellite remote sensing data. Methods From 2016 to 2018, a cross-sectional study was conducted among 52316 children and adolescents aged 5-18 years in three cities in the Pearl River Delta region of China. Basic sociological and demographic characteristics of the population and adiposity levels were collected through questionnaires. Land Remote-Sensing Satellite (Landsat) data and moderate-resolution imaging spectroradiometer (MODIS) products were used to quantify the greenness around the schools and homes, including normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI), vegetation continuous field (VCF), soil-adjusted vegetation index (SAVI), and enhanced vegetation index (EVI) calculated within 500 m and 1000 m buffers centered around the participants' homes or schools. A restricted cubic spline function was used to assess the exposure-response relationship. After categorizing greenness levels into quartiles with the first quartile as the reference, two-level generalized linear models were applied to assess the change in body mass index z-scores (zBMI) and the risk of overweight of children and adolescents in higher quartiles relative to the lowest quartile. In addition, counterfactual framework modelling was applied to assess the potential mediation effects of PM_2.5 and NO₂, and physical activity levels on the associations between greenness and adiposity levels. Results Of the 52316 children included, 8406 (16.1%) were overweight. A non-linear negative association of the level of greenness around the homes or schools and zBMI was found, with a significant lower zBMI in children and adolescents when a certain level of greenness was reached. After adjusting for confounders, the participants in the highest quartile had a significantly lower level of zBMI and a significantly lower risk of overweight compared with those in the lowest quartile of NDVI_{500 m} and VCF_{500 m}. The estimate change (\begin{document}$b$\end{document}) for zBMI was −0.07 (95%CI: −0.10-−0.04) and the odds ratio (OR) for overweight was 0.92 (95%CI: 0.85-0.99) for the students in the highest NDVI_{500 m} quartile based on home address compared to those in the lowest quartile. Significant negative associations were also observed when 1000 m buffer, SAVI, and EVI were used. The mediation analysis showed that PM_2.5 and NO₂ partially mediated the negative association of NDVI_{500 m} with zBMI , and the proportions of mediation were 50% (95%CI: 20%-80%) and 90% (95%CI: 50%-160%), respectively while no significant mediation effect was observed for physical activity level. Conclusion Higher levels of greenness surrounding homes or schools may be associated with a reduced risk of overweight and decreased zBMI in children and adolescents, and such associations may be partially mediated by reducing air pollutant concentrations.

Greenspace may bring benefits to human health. Evidence on greenness and health has accumulated in western countries, and several reviews have summarized such evidence. Researchers have also conducted some studies on greenspace and human health in Chinese population, but no prior review has pooled or summarized them. To provide more comprehensive evidence on this topic, we searched and summarized studies on greenspace and health that were conducted specifically in Chinese population. We found that a certain number of studies have been conducted in China, and the evidence indicates that greenspace exposure may reduce the odds of cardiovascular diseases, mental health disorders, adverse birth outcomes as well as mortality. However, most of the current reported studies were of cross-sectional design or randomized controlled trails targeting short-term effects, and prospective cohort studies were scarce. Moreover, greenness exposure was mainly assessed using greenness index like normalized difference vegetative index (NDVI), which were static and cannot distinguish construction and species of greenspaces. Future prospective studies with more precise greenness exposure assessment are warranted to evaluate the prior findings.

Objective To explore the expression of heat shock protein (HSP) 105b in advanced adenocarcinoma of esophagogastric junction (AEG) patients and its relation with clinicopathological characteristics and effect of hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC). Methods We randomly divided 166 cases of advanced AEG who underwent open radical gastrectomy and lymphadenectomy D2 compartment into treatment group (prophylactic HIPEC of paclitaxel after operation) and control group (conventional treatment). Immunohistochemistry was used to detect HSP105b expression in postoperative tumor tissues, and to analyze its relation with clinicopathological characteristics and effect of HIPEC. Results The expression of HSP105b was only associated with tumor vein infiltration (t=4.002, P=0.045). The 3-year disease-free survival rate of the patients with high HSP105b expression was significantly lower than those with low HSP105b expression (56.5% vs. 64.8%, χ²=35.508, P < 0.001), and the disease-free survival rate of the patients with high HSP105b expression in treatment group was significantly lower than that with low HSP105b expression (60.7% vs. 71.5%, χ²=77.459, P < 0.001). Conclusion HSP105b can be used as a prognostic factor and its expression can predict the efficacy of HIPEC in the patients with advanced AEG.
