This paper summarizes the progress of theoretical research and practice of One Health in China,and discusses the paradigm of One Health governance to improve the prevention and control of infectious diseases in China and the world,and provide an example for the improvement of the public health system.In particular,China has long history to apply the concept of One Health in the national schistosomiasis control programmes and patriotic health campaigns,which were not only focusing on human health,but also emphasizing the sustainable development of animal health and ecological environment.At the same time,the application of tools such as system dynamics model,eDNA technology,One Health economic assessment and global One Health index(GOHI)in the field of disease control and environmental health provides technical support for the concept of One Health.Despite the challenges of practical application of these tools,the One Health concept will play a greater role in providing sustainable solutions for human-animal-environmental health by strengthening interdisciplinary collaboration,improving standardization protocols and promoting inter-national cooperation.

Aerosol-assisted plasma amplification laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy(LIBS)was employed for phosphorus detection in water.To address the multivariate coupling effects in LIBS and nebulization sampling system,an orthogonal experiment was employed to systematically optimize the key experimental parameters.Using the orthogonal experimental design,the parametric effects of laser energy(output voltage),signal acquisition delay,liquid velocity,and gas velocity on the signal to background ratio(SBR)of P I 213.618 nm were evaluated,and the optimal conditions were achieved,including laser energy of 86 mJ,delay time of 3 μs,gas velocity of 1.05 mL/min,and liquid velocity of 60 μL/min,which were in agreement with the control-variable optimization results.Moreover,the SBR response trends at P I 213.618 nm with all experimental parameters was strong in consistency with control-variable optimization results,which demonstrated the validity of the orthogonal array experimental design.This study established an efficient and accurate parameter optimization methodology for complex LIBS systems,significantly advancing the application of LIBS in environmental monitoring.

OBJECTIVES: To investigate the inhibitory effect of multimerin-2 (MMRN2) overexpression on growth and metastasis of cutaneous melanoma cells. METHODS: Clinical data of patients with cutaneous melanoma were obtained from the GEO database to compare MMRN2 expressions between normal and tumor tissues. A protein-protein interaction network was constructed using the STRING database, and the intersecting genes from GEPIA2.0 were subjected to GO and KEGG enrichment analysis. The prognostic relevance of MMRN2 expression level was assessed using Cox regression and "timeROC". The correlations of MMRN2 expression level with immune infiltration and angiogenesis-related genes were analyzed using GSCA database and the ssGSEA algorithm. Colony-forming assay, Transwell assay, and wound healing assay were used to examine the changes in proliferation and migration of cultured cutaneous melanoma cells following MMRN2 knockdown. In a mouse model bearing cutaneous melanoma xenograft, the effect of MMRN2 knockdown on vital organ pathologies, survival of the mice and GM-CSF, CXCL9, and TGF‑β1 protein expressions were analyzed. RESULTS: MMRN2 was significantly upregulated in metastatic cutaneous melanoma (P<0.001). Protein interaction network analysis identified 15 intersecting genes, which were enriched in endothelium development and cell-cell junctions. In patients with cutaneous melanoma, a high MMRN2 expression was correlated with a poor prognosis, an advanced T stage, a greater Breslow depth, and ulceration (P<0.05). MMRN2 expression level was strongly correlated with 24 immune cell types (P<0.001), fibroblasts, endothelial cells, and expressions of the pro-angiogenic genes (KCNJ8, SLCO2A1, NRP1, and COL3A1; P<0.001). In cultured B16F10 cells, MMRN2 knockdown significantly suppressed cell proliferation, migration and invasion and caused remo-deling of the immunosuppressive microenvironment. CONCLUSIONS MMRN2 overexpression drives progression of cutaneous melanoma by enhancing tumor metastasis, angiogenesis and immune evasion, highlighting its potential as a therapeutic target for melanomas.

Mutations in the cyclin-dependent kinase-like 5 gene (CDKL5) cause a severe neurodevelopmental disorder, yet the impact of truncating mutations remains unclear. Here, we introduce the Cdkl5^492stop mouse model, mimicking C-terminal truncating mutations in patients. 492stop/Y mice exhibit altered dendritic spine morphology and spontaneous seizure-like behaviors, alongside other behavioral deficits. After creating cell lines with various Cdkl5 truncating mutations, we found that these mutations are regulated by the nonsense-mediated RNA decay pathway. Most truncating mutations result in CDKL5 protein loss, leading to multiple disease phenotypes, and offering new insights into the pathogenesis of CDKL5 disorder.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the clinical efficacy of orthopedic manipulation combined with daoyin exercises in the treatment of chronic lumbar disc herniation under the guidance of the theory of "equal emphasis on muscles and bones". METHODS: A total of 60 patients with single-segment, unilateral chronic lumbar disc herniation from January 2023 to January 2024 were randomly divided into the traditional physical therapy group and the manipulation treatment group, with 30 cases in each group. Among them, 3 cases were lost to follow-up in the traditional physical therapy group and 2 cases in the manipulation treatment group. There were 27 cases in the traditional physical therapy group, including 15 males and 12 females, aged 25 to 65 years old with an average of (51.96±14.42) years;the course of disease ranged from 3 to 15 months with an average of (9.89±3.32) months;11 cases were on the left side and 16 cases on the right side;15 cases were at the L4, 5 segment and 12 cases at the L5S1 segment. They were treated with lumbar traction, medium-frequency electrical stimulation and ultrasonic therapy. There were 28 cases in the manipulation treatment group, including 14 males and 14 females, aged 24 to 68 years old with an average of (49.82±14.85) years old;the course of disease ranged from 3 to 14 months with an average of (9.61±3.05) months;15 cases were on the left side and 13 cases on the right side;17 cases were at the L4, 5 segment and 11 cases at the L5S1 segment. They were treated with orthopedic manipulation combined with daoyin exercises. The visual analogue scale (VAS), Oswestry disability index (ODI) and bilateral erector spinae muscle tone were compared between the two groups before treatment, after 2 weeks and 4 weeks of treatment. RESULTS: The two groups of patients were followed up and evaluated before treatment, 2 weeks and 4 weeks after treatment. The VAS of the manipulation treatment group and the traditional physical therapy group decreased from (5.46±0.99) and (5.41±1.05) points before treatment to (1.75±0.79) and (2.29±0.82) points after 4 weeks of treatment, respectively. Both groups were significantly improved after treatment compared with before treatment, and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05);and the manipulation treatment group was better than the traditional physical therapy group at 4 weeks of treatment, with a statistically significant difference (P<0.05). The ODI of the manipulation treatment group and the traditional physical therapy group before treatment was (20.25±2.72) and (18.96±2.52) points, respectively, which decreased to (15.46±1.88) and (16.56±2.01) points after 2 weeks of treatment, and to (11.54±1.23) and (12.85±1.72) points after 4 weeks of treatment. Both groups were significantly improved after treatment compared with before treatment, and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05), and the ODI in the manipulation treatment group was better than that in the traditional physical therapy group after treatment (P<0.05). There was no significant statistical difference in the displacement of erector spinae muscle tone between the healthy side and the affected side in both the manipulation treatment group and the traditional physical therapy group before treatment (P>0.05). After 2 weeks of treatment, the displacement values of erector spinae muscle tone on the healthy side in the manipulation treatment group and the traditional physical therapy group were (6.68±0.81) mm and (6.45±0.65) mm, respectively, and those on the affected side were (5.87±0.82) mm and (5.61±0.84) mm, respectively. After 4 weeks of treatment, the displacement values of erector spinae muscle tone on the healthy side in the manipulation treatment group and the traditional physical therapy group were (7.51±0.75) mm and (7.04±0.63) mm, respectively, and those on the affected side were (6.87±0.78) mm and (6.33±0.82) mm, respectively. The displacement values of erector spinae muscle tone on both the healthy and affected sides in both groups were significantly higher than those before treatment, and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05);the displacement of erector spinae muscle tone in the manipulation treatment group after 4 weeks of treatment was better than that in the traditional physical therapy group, with a statistically significant difference (P<0.05). CONCLUSION Orthopedic manipulation combined with daoyin exercises can effectively improve the symptoms and lumbar function of patients with chronic lumbar disc herniation, and has more advantages in improving the tone of the erector spinae muscle.

Aim To establish a simple and practical method for visualizing neurovascular coupling in the mouse barrel cortex in vivo.Methods Male C57BL/6J mice received stereotaxic in-jections of pAAV-hSyn-jGCaMP7s-WPRE into the barrel cortex to monitor neuronal activity.Three weeks post-injection,a crani-al window was implanted,and TRITC-Dextran 155 ku was ad-ministered intravenously to visualize the vasculature and blood flow dynamics.A custom-built whisker stimulator was used to e-voke controlled neuronal excitation.Two-photon microscopy was employed to monitor neuronal and vascular responses to whisker stimulation in real-time.Results Neuronal calcium signals and plasma signals were clearly observed using two-photon microsco-py.Whisker stimulation led to a significant increase in neuronal calcium signals in the barrel cortex,indicating effective neuronal activation.This neuronal excitation was accompanied by a syn-chronous increase in blood vessel diameter,blood flow velocity and overall blood flow.Conclusions This study successfully establishes a three-dimensional visualization framework(spatial,temporal,and functional)for in vivo visualization of neurovascu-lar coupling in the mouse barrel cortex,which provides a useful tool for investigating the pathophysiological mechanisms of neuro-vascular dysfunction and evaluating the efficacy of potential ther-apies.

As the country with the largest number of new cancer cases and deaths,China faces a serious situation with a large cancer population base,low relative survival rate,and low adherence to cancer screening.Neighboring Japan,which has the longest life expectancy in the world,has a much higher relative survival rate than China,despite having a similarly high cancer rate,due to its well-established system of cancer prevention and control.Being an Asian country,the major prevalent cancers in China and Japan are similar in spectrum and can be referred to more.This article introduces the construction of Japan's cancer life-cycle prevention and control system of"cancer prevention","cancer care",and"coexistence with cancer"starting from the three major goals of Japan's cancer prevention and control program,and focuses on the improvement of cancer screening in Japan and the improvement of cancer survival in China.It also highlights the means and methods used to increase the cancer screening rate in Japan,with a view to providing suggestions for cancer prevention and control in China.
