Objective: To analyze the epidemiological characteristics of infectious diseases among children and adolescents in Lanshan District, Linyi City, 2014-2023,so as to provide a scientific basis for prevention and control strategies in schools. Methods: The surveillance data were obtained from the China Information System for Disease Control and Prevention (CISDCP). Data on reported infectious disease cases and related demographic information among school children and kindergarteners in the study area from 2014 to 2023 were collected. Rate comparison was performed by using the χ 2 test. Trend analysis was conducted by using Joinpoint Regression Progrom, and the annual percent change (APC) and average annual percent change (AAPC) were calculated. Results: A total of 10 222 cases of infectious diseases among children and adolescents were reported from 2014 to 2023, with an average annual incidence rate of 273.32 per 100 000. The overall incidence trend remained stable from 2014 to 2023 (AAPC=12.33%, 95%CI=-2.63%-29.59%, P >0.05). Whereas a significant upward trend was observed from 2014 to 2019 (AAPC=37.08%, 95% CI =12.92%-66.41%, P <0.05), followed by a stable trend from 2019 to 2023 (AAPC=-0.31%, 95%CI=-39.70%-64.83%, P>0.05). Seasonal distribution exhibited dual peaks in summer and winter. The incidence rate in urban areas(707.29/100 000) was significantly higher than that in rural areas(257.50/100 000), and the incidence rate among kindergarteners (325.49/100 000) was higher than that among school children (257.07/100 000) (χ2=1 518.60, 116.36, both P<0.01). The reported infectious diseases among children and adolescents were predominantly respiratory and intestinal infectious diseases, with incidence rates of 156.13/100 000 and 108.51/100 000, respectively. Hand, foot, and mouth disease (HFMD) was the predominant infectious disease among kindergarteners, accounting for 47.51%. Influenza was the leading condition in the primary school group, accounting for 38.64%, and other infectious diarrheal diseases were most common in junior and senior high school group, accounting for 53.34%. The top six diseases by incidence rate were other infectious diarrheal diseases(65.22/100 000), influenza(63.24/100 000), varicella(46.34/100 000), HFMD(41.07/100 000), mumps(23.42/100 000), and scarlet fever(10.56/100 000). Among them, the incidence of other infectious diarrheal diseases rose significantly (AAPC=35.31%, 95% CI =14.32%-60.14%, P <0.01). The trend transitioned from a rapid escalation during 2014-2019 (APC=69.98%, 95% CI =17.58%-145.74%, P =0.01) to a stable phase during 2019-2023 (APC=1.74%, 95% CI =-15.61%- 22.66%, P >0.05). Conclusions In Lanshan, urban educational institutions should prioritize the prevention and control of infectious diseases, with particular emphasis on other infectious diarrheal diseases, influenza and varicella. Targeted interventions should be implemented in accordance with seasonal patterns and the specific characteristics of the school age populations.

Objective To propose a high-precision deep learning-based image assessment method of osteosarcoma chemotherapy efficacy for clinical treatment,as existing methos have low accuracy of osteosarcoma assessment.Methods The low incidence of osteosarcoma led to the small scale of its imaging data and the problem of imbalance in data categories.This study combined deep learning with clinical medical information,combined the bone sarcoma generation module of BoneGAN and the scale lesion information capture module,and proposed OMLA-Net,a deep learning assessment network for chemotherapy effect of bone sarcoma based on multi-scale lesion attention network,which achieved computer-aided bone tumor assessment with integrated data augmentation and focused lesion information through pre-training and generalized loss training.Results In this study,40 cases of osteosarcoma MRI data were used as the basis for the comparison test on the generated dataset,and the OMLA-Net assessment outperformed the SOTA method Conv-LSTM-GAN in terms of the assessment effects such as accuracy and F1 scores,and the difference was statistically significant(Bootstrap statistical method P＜0.05);the subsequent K-fold cross-validation ablation experiments further demonstrated the effectiveness of each module proposed by OMLA-Net.Conclusion OMLA-Net can effectively perform the impact assessment of chemotherapy effect on osteosarcoma,which provides a new idea for subsequent clinical application.

In recent years,the market share of food and medicine homology substances has continued to grow,and various types of contamination issues have become the focus of attention both inside and outside the industry.The contamination not only affects the original medicinal quality,but also leads to the accumulation of toxic substances in the human body,causing acute and chronic severe hazards such as vomiting,poisoning and cancer.Therefore,the development of biosensors that can conveniently,accurately and sensitively detect various pollutants in food and medicine homology substances has become a research hotspot.Aptasensors based on metal-organic frameworks(MOFs)with advantages such as strong specificity,rapid response and simple operation,have been widely used in detection of various pollutants.This review focused on the research progress of aptasensors based on MOFs for detection of food and medicine homology contamination in the past few years,and provided a detailed comparison and analysis for detection of chemical pollutants(such as pesticide residues,heavy metal residues,mycotoxins,etc.)and microbial contamination in food and medicine homology substances.Besides,the development trend and possible challenges of MOFs aptasensors in detection of food and medicine homology substances in the future were discussed,which was anticipated to provide a reference for the development of new MOFs aptasensors.

BACKGROUND: The transcription factor POU2F1 regulates the expression levels of microRNAs in neoplasia. However, the miR-29b1/a cluster modulated by POU2F1 in gastric cancer (GC) remains unknown. METHODS: Gene expression in GC cells was evaluated using reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction (PCR), western blotting, immunohistochemistry, and RNA in situ hybridization. Co-immunoprecipitation was performed to evaluate protein interactions. Transwell migration and invasion assays were performed to investigate the biological behavior of GC cells. MiR-29b1/a cluster promoter analysis and luciferase activity assay for the 3'-UTR study were performed in GC cells. In vivo tumor metastasis was evaluated in nude mice. RESULTS: POU2F1 is overexpressed in GC cell lines and binds to the miR-29b1/a cluster promoter. POU2F1 is upregulated, whereas mature miR-29b-3p and miR-29a-3p are downregulated in GC tissues. POU2F1 promotes GC metastasis by inhibiting miR-29b-3p or miR-29a-3p expression in vitro and in vivo . Furthermore, PIK3R1 and/or PIK3R3 are direct targets of miR-29b-3p and/or miR-29a-3p , and the ectopic expression of PIK3R1 or PIK3R3 reverses the suppressive effect of mature miR-29b-3p and/or miR-29a-3p on GC cell metastasis and invasion. Additionally, the interaction of PIK3R1 with PIK3R3 promotes migration and invasion, and miR-29b-3p , miR-29a-3p , PIK3R1 , and PIK3R3 regulate migration and invasion via the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/protein kinase B/mammalian target of rapamycin (PI3K/Akt/mTOR) pathway in GC cells. In addition, POU2F1 , PIK3R1 , and PIK3R3 expression levels negatively correlated with miR-29b-3p and miR-29a-3p expression levels in GC tissue samples. CONCLUSIONS The POU2F1 - miR-29b-3p / miR-29a-3p-PIK3R1 / PIK3R1 signaling axis regulates tumor progression and may be a promising therapeutic target for GC.

ObjectiveTo analyze the long-term trends of the disease burden of diabetes attributed to metabolic factors in China from 1990 to 2019, and provide scientific recommendations for diabetes prevention and control in China. MethodsDescriptive analysis was conducted on the disease burden data of diabetes attributed to metabolic factors in China from 1990 to 2019, obtained from GBD 2019, encompassing death form diabetes, disability-adjusted life years (DALY), years of life lost (YLL), and years lived with disability (YLD). Joinpoint regression models were employed to analyze the long-term trends in mortality and DALY rates. Furthermore, the study examined the impact of two metabolic risk factors, high fasting plasma glucose (FPG) levels and high body mass index (BMI) levels, on the disease burden of diabetes. ResultsFrom 1990 to 2019, the overall standardized mortality and DALY rates attributed to metabolic factors for diabetes in the general population in China showed an upward trend, with both average annual percent changes (AAPCs) of 0.1% in the total population. The trend was upward in males with AAPCs of 0.9% and 0.6%, while it was downward in females with AAPCs of -0.4% and -0.3%. As age increased, the disease burden of diabetes attributed to metabolic factors showed an upward trend, with high FPG and high BMI ranking as the top two attributing risk factors. The disease burden of diabetes attributed to metabolic factors was higher in Chinese males than females. ConclusionThe disease burden of diabetes attributed to metabolic factors is increasing among the overall population and particularly among males, while the burden for female is declining. There is a need to increase intervention efforts for males aged 65 and above, provide scientific guidance on residents’ diet and lifestyle habits, and control blood glucose and body weight.

Lung cancer is one of the malignant tumors with the highest mortality and the fastest growing incidence,which seriously threatens human life and health.With the popularization of low-dose spiral CT and the enhancement of public awareness of physical examination,more and more ground-glass nodules have been detected.Accumulating studies have shown that for patients with nodules diameter≤2 cm and ground-glass opacity≥50% ,under the condition of ensuring the cutting edge,thoracoscopic sublobectomy or subsegmentectomy can more effectively preserve the lung function of patients,and has gradually become the recommended surgical method.In recent years,with the continuous improvement of thoracoscopic surgery technology,thoracoscopic subsegmentectomy and combined subsegmentectomy have been gradually carried out.Compared with lobectomy and segmentectomy,subsegmental resection can retain more normal lung tissue and reduce the loss of lung function under the condition of ensuring the safe cutting edge.However,thoracoscopic subsegmental resection requires a higher level of surgical technique and anatomical knowledge for the operator,and is rarely reported in relevant literature.Therefore,this article reviews the progress of anatomical subsegmentectomy and combined subsegmentectomy in the treatment of early non-small cell lung cancer.

Objective To analyze the diagnostic value of ultrasound blood quantitative parameters combined with murine sarcoma filtering toxin oncogenic homolog B(BRAF)gene mutation in Hashimoto's thyroiditis(HT)with thyroid carcinoma.Methods A total of 86 patients with HT and thyroid nodules in Sir Run Run Hospital,Nanjing Medical University from June 2020 to June 2022 were selected as the research objects.The patients with thyroid cancer were included into the malignant group(n=26),and the patients with benign thyroid nodules were included into the benign group(n=60)according to the pathological examination results.The patients in the malignant group was divided into the metastasis group(n=10)and the non-metastasis group(n=16)according to whether lymph node metastasis occurred.All subjects underwent color Doppler ultrasonography and BRAF gene mutation detection.The pulsatility index(PI),resistance index(RI),peak systolic velocity(S),end diastolic velocity(D),peak systolic velocity to end diastolic velocity ratio(S/D)and BRAF gene mutation between the malignant group and the benign group were compared.The detection rate of blood flow signals by CDFI,the detection rate of blood flow signals of grade 2 to 3 and the mutation of BRAF gene between the metastasis group and the non-metastasis group were compared.The value of the above blood parameters and BRAF gene mutations in the diagnosis of HT complicated with thyroid cancer was evaluated by receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve,and the value of the above blood parameters and BRAF gene mutation in the diagnosis of lymph node metastasis of thyroid cancer was evaluated.Results The PI,RI,S,D,S/D and positive rate of BRAF gene mutation in the malignant group were significantly higher than those in the benign group(P<0.05).The detection rate of blood flow signals by CDFI,the detection rate of blood flow signals of grade 2 to 3,and the positive rate of BRAF gene mutation in the metastasis group were significantly higher than those in the non-metastasis group(P<0.05).ROC curve analysis showed that the area under the curve(AUC)of RI,PI,S,D,S/D and BRAF gene mutation in the combined assessment of HT complicated with thyroid cancer was 0.951,with the sensitivity of 88.46%and the specificity of 93.33%,and the efficiency of combined assessment was better than that of the independent assessment of each index.Meanwhile,the AUC of the detection rate of blood flow signals by CDFI,the detection rate of blood flow signals of grade 2 to 3,and BRAF gene mutation in the combined assessment of lymph node metastasis of thyroid cancer was 0.938,and the efficiency of combined assessment was better than that of the independent assessment of each index.Conclusion The ultrasound blood quantitative parameters combined with BRAF gene mutation has certain value in the evaluation of HT with thyroid cancer and lymph node metastasis,and the combined evaluation of each index is more effective.

ObjectiveTo introduce the Hr gene of spontaneously mutated SHJH^hr mice into BALB/cAShjh inbred mice with clear genetic background,and provide a basis for study on the molecular mechanism of Hr gene mutation-induced abnormal phenotype and the application of this model.Methods Using a backcross-intercross breeding method guided by phenotypic monitoring, mutant genes from SHJH^hr mice bred by spontaneous mutation were introduced into inbred BALB/cAShjh mice by homozygous mutation introgression, and the mice were bred into BALB/cA.Cg.SHJH^hr (abbreviated as C.Cg.SHJH^hr) mice after 10 generations. The genotypes of 90 single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) detection sites were analyzed in C.Cg.SHJH^hr mice by multiplex PCR library construction followed by next generation sequencing. Then 14 biochemical locus marker genes were detected in C.Cg.SHJH^hr mice according to the method of GB/T 14927.1-2008. Finally, whole genome exon sequencing was utilized to detect the mutated genes in this mouse. ResultsFrom May 2018 to March 2022, a total of 10 generations of backcross-intercross were conducted to complete the construction of the C.Cg.SHJH^hr mouse line. Among the 90 SNPs loci detected, except for rs13484115 and rs13484116, all the other loci had the same genotype as the recipient mice BALB/cAShjh. The results of biochemical marker gene detection showed that all the 14 loci of the mouse were the same as those of the recipient mouse. Whole genome exon sequencing found that the mouse had 109 site mutations compared with the recipient mouse strain, including 71 synonymous mutations, 1 stopgain, 37 missense mutations, and 20 genes involved in protein sequence alterations (including the reported Hr gene). ConclusionC.Cg.SHJH^hr mice were created. Through exon sequencing and genetic analysis, three Hr mutated genes and associated mutated genes that mainly cause phenotypic variations were identified, which provides a basis for expanding the application of C.Cg.SHJH^hr mice in biomedical research.
