Objective To investigate the situation of hepatitis B immune blocking and the growth and development of hepatitis B exposed children within one year after birth, and to provide evidence for formulating and optimizing measures for maternal and infant blocking in Wenzhou. Methods The hepatitis B infection status during pregnancy and birth was collected, hepatitis B immunoglobulin and vaccine were analyzed, and a follow-up on the immune blocking effect, growth and development, and the nutritional status of children exposed to hepatitis B was conducted. Statistical analysis of data was carried out through SPSS 26.0. Results In 2021, 6.07% of newborns in Wenzhou were exposed to hepatitis B, of which 28.37% were highly exposed children. The prevalence rates for males and females were 6.42% and 5.70%, respectively, and the difference was statistically significant (χ2=13.744, P<0.001). The prevalence rates in mountainous and non-mountainous counties were 6.35% and 5.94%, respectively, and the difference was statistically significant (χ2=5.72, P < 0.001). In 2021, the mother-to-child transmission rate of children exposed to hepatitis B was 0.54‰. There were no significant differences in the height, weight, hemoglobin and neuropsychological development of hepatitis B exposed children compared with non-exposed children (P < 0.001). Conclusion The number of children exposed to hepatitis B in mountainous counties is significantly higher than that in non-mountainous counties in Wenzhou, and the number of men is significantly higher than that of women. The proportion of highly exposed children is relatively high. The effect of mother-to-child blocking is good, and there is no significant difference between the growth and development of children exposed to hepatitis B and no-exposed children during follow-up.

AIM: To analyze the changes of retinal structure and function before and after panretinal photocoagulation(PRP)in patients with proliferative diabetic retinopathy(PDR).METHODS: Prospective study. Totally 98 cases(98 eyes)of PDR patients who underwent PRP in Eye Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University from January 2022 to May 2023 were included. Optical coherence tomography angiography(OCTA)was used to detect central retinal thickness(CRT), central macular thickness(CMT), subfoveal choroidal thickness(SFCT), foveal avascular zone(FAZ), deep vascular complex(DVC)blood flow density, superficial vascular complex(SVC)blood flow density before and at 1 wk, 1 and 3 mo after PRP. During the follow-up, 1 eye underwent vitrectomy, 2 eyes were lost to follow-up, and finally 95 eyes completed 1 a follow-up, with a loss rate of 3%. According to the visual prognosis at 1 a after treatment, the patients were divided into two groups: 73 eyes in good prognosis group and 22 eyes in poor prognosis group(including 9 eyes of visual disability and 13 eyes of visual regression). The changes in retinal structure and function before and after PRP treatment were compared between the two groups of patients, and the receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve and decision curve were used to analyze the predictive value of retinal structure and function for PDR treatment.RESULTS: There were statistical significant differences in PDR staging, CRT, CMT, SFCT, DVC blood flow density, and SVC blood flow density between the two groups of patients before treatment(all P<0.05). At 1 wk, 1 and 3 mo after treatment, the FAZ area of both groups decreased compared to before treatment, while the blood flow density of DVC and SVC increased compared to before treatment(both P<0.05). However, there was no significant difference in the blood flow density of FAZ, DVC, and SVC between the two groups at 1 wk, 1 and 3 mo after treatment(all P>0.05). The CRT, CMT and SFCT of the two groups at 1 wk after treatment were higher than those before treatment(all P<0.05), but there were no significant differences between the two groups(all P>0.05). The CRT, CMT and SFCT at 1 and 3 mo after treatment were lower than those at 1 wk after treatment and before treatment in both groups. The CRT, CMT and SFCT in the poor prognosis group at 3 mo after treatment were higher than those at 1 mo after treatment, and were higher than those in the good prognosis group(all P<0.05). ROC analysis showed that, at 3 mo after laser treatment in PDR patients, the area under the curve of the CRT, CMT, and SFCT alone or in combination after treatment for 1 a was 0.788, 0.781, 0.783, and 0.902, respectively, and the combined prediction value was better(P<0.05). Decision curve analysis showed that the combined detection of CRT, CMT, and SFCT in PDR patients at 3 mo after treatment can improve the predictive value of visual prognosis.CONCLUSION: The optimal time for retinal structure and function recovery in PDR patients after PRP treatment is between 1 wk and 1 mo. OCTA measurement of CRT, CMT, and SFCT at 3 mo after treatment can predict the visual prognosis during the 1 a treatment period.

Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) is a global malignancy with significant chemoresistance impacting patient prognosis. The pro-tumorigenic role of hyaluronan-mediated motility receptor (HMMR) in LUAD is recognized. This study was designed to investigate the underlying mechanisms by which HMMR affects chemoresistance in LUAD. Bioinformatics presented the expression patterns of HMMR in LUAD patients and the association between HMMR levels and patient survival, followed by qRT-PCR to verify HMMR expression in LUAD tissues and cells. Further, bioinformatics was leveraged to identify the signaling pathways enriched by HMMR and its relevance to glycolytic genes, we also analyzed changes in the glycolytic activity of LUAD cells by manipulating HMMR expression. Stemness was evaluated through cell aggregation assays and Western blot, and drug responsiveness was gauged using CCK-8 assays, alongside flow cytometry for apoptosis analysis. HMMR was highly expressed in LUAD tissues and cells, and this overexpression correlated with poorer prognoses in patients. GSEA showed that HMMR was notably enriched in the glycolysis and gluconeogenesis pathways, correlating positively with the expression of key glycolytic genes. Cellular experiments confirmed that HMMR knockdown notably suppressed aerobic glycolysis in LUAD cells. Moreover, overexpression of HMMR could further enhance the stemness and cisplatin resistance of LUAD cells by stimulating glycolysis. In brief, this study has validated that high levels of HMMR in LUAD are predictive of poor patient prognosis, and that overexpression of HMMR can catalyze aerobic glycolysis, thus promoting stemness and chemoresistance in LUAD cells. Thus, HMMR could be a target for improving chemosensitivity in LUAD.

Narrative is the cornerstone of interpersonal relationships and life safety. However, its important value in daily life, school education, health management, personal happiness, career development, and other aspects has been ignored. The narrative ecology of families, schools, hospitals, workplaces, and elderly care institutions is worrying, the narrative connection between parent-child and intergenerational is broken, the narrative nature of adolescents is ignored, the narrative demands of patients are neglected, narrative relationships in the workplace are indifferent, and the narrative capital of the elderly is idle. These issues have resulted in serious social problems, such as depression and suicide among adolescents, conflicts between doctors and patients, workplace and life burnout among middle-aged people, and the inability of the elderly to achieve healthy aging, which have become a “stumbling block” to the realization of holistic health. Advocating the construction of narrative ecology and interpersonal narrative connections is an important measure of achieving holistic health. Taking the “narrative concept” as the overall framework, and based on the research, education, and practice carried out by the Alliance of Narrative Medicine in Higher Education Institutions, this paper proposed that actively build China’s narrative system of life and health, to enable narrative play an active and dynamic role in the construction of narrative ecology in different spaces, such as the families, the schools, the hospitals, the workplaces, and the elderly care institutions, as well as practically improve the quality of life of the people.
9.Analysis on the surveillance data of death causes among the registered residents in Taishun County, Zhejiang Province from 2016 to 2023
Shanghai Journal of Preventive Medicine 2025;37(7):620-624
ObjectiveTo investigate the mortality level and leading causes of death among the registered residents in Taishun County, Zhejiang Province from 2016 to 2023, as as to provide evidence for the formulation of relevant disease prevention and control strategies. MethodsDeath data of the registered residents in Taishun County were collected from the population death information registration and management system of Zhejiang Province Chronic Disease Surveillance Information Management System and Wenzhou City Disease Prevention and Control Information System. Excel 2021 software was used to calculate the mortality rates and cause-specific rankings of different genders, age groups, and surveillance years. ResultsDuring 2016‒2023, the crude mortality rate (CMR) of the registered residents in Taishun County was 663.97/105, with a standardized mortality rate of 448.33/105. The CMR for males (833.15/105) was 1.73 times higher than that for females (480.77/105). The mortality rate tended to decrease and then increase with age increased, with 78.25% of deaths occurring among individuals aged ≥65 years. The top five causes of death were malignant tumors, cerebral vascular diseases , cardiovascular diseases, chronic respiratory diseases, and injuries/poisoning, collectively accounting for 73.69% of the total deaths. The ranking orders for males and females were not exactly the same. Chronic diseases dominated the causes of death, accounting for 83.85% of the total deaths, from which, malignant tumors and cerebral vascular diseases accounted for 24.45% and 17.79%, respectively. ConclusionStatistically significant differences of mortality rates are observed among individuals from different ages and genders in Taishun County. Chronic diseases, particularly malignant tumors and cerebral vascular diseases, are the main causes of death among the registered residents in Taishun County. Therefore, it is needed to place weight on the prevention and management of chronic diseases, to alleviate the disease burden caused by premature deaths, and to promote the health of the whole population.

Bispecific antibodies (BsAbs), as an important recent innovation in the field of tumor immunotherapy in recent years, can simultaneously or sequentially target different antigens or two different epitopes of the same antigen. Compared with traditional monoclonal antibodies, they can produce superior therapeutic effects. This article reviews the progress in clinical applications and safety research of BsAbs in cancer therapy, revealing that they (such as blinatumomab, glofitamab, teclistamab, amivantamab, etc.) exhibit significant therapeutic efficacy against hematological malignancies, lung cancer, cervical cancer, melanoma, and other cancers. For cytokine release syndrome (CRS) induced by BsAbs, prophylactic or pre-emptive medication is commonly administered in clinical practice; for neurotoxicity and infections triggered by BsAbs, clinical practice necessitates rigorous monitoring of patients’ vital signs and the provision of essential treatments. In addition, different BsAbs exhibit variations in escalation dose, infusion rate, storage duration, and equipment requirements. Therefore, strict adherence to the instructions in the drug package inserts is essential during clinical operations to ensure safety and therapeutic efficacy. In the future, more multicenter trials need to be conducted to validate the efficacy and safety of BsAbs across different tumor types and patient populations, and long-term follow-up data should be accumulated to optimize treatment cycles and dosage regimens.
