Objective: To investigate the status and influencing factors of influenza vaccination among the elderly, so as to provide insights into improving the strategies for influenza vaccination among the elderly. Methods: Elderly people aged 60 years and above were recruited from one community each in five sub-districts of Shihezi City, Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region using a random sampling method. Demographic information, knowledge about influenza and influenza vaccines, vaccine literacy and influenza vaccination status in the past year were collected through questionnaire surveys. Factors affecting influenza vaccination among the elderly were analyzed using a multivariable logistic regression model. Results: Totally 1 121 valid questionnaires were recovered, with an effective recovery rate of 95.08%. There were 417 males (37.20%) and 704 females (62.80%). The majority were aged 60-<81 years, accounting for 80.37% (901 individuals). The awareness of knowledge about influenza and influenza vaccines was 78.86%. Low vaccine literacy was observed in 786 individuals, representing 70.12%. The influenza vaccination rate was 20.96%. Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that age (71-<81 years, OR=1.607, 95%CI: 1.041-2.479; ≥81 years, OR=1.719, 95%CI: 1.040-2.842), educational level (middle school/technical secondary school, OR=0.616, 95%CI: 0.416-0.911), medical expense payment (employee medical insurance, OR=6.531, 95%CI: 2.030-21.010; resident medical insurance, OR=3.385, 95%CI: 1.095-10.466; public expense, OR=4.828, 95%CI: 1.700-13.712), vaccination willingness (yes, OR=6.237, 95%CI: 3.277-11.871), influenza vaccination history (yes, OR=14.600, 95%CI: 8.733-24.408) and vaccine literacy (medium and above, OR=2.412, 95%CI: 1.636-3.555) were associated with influenza vaccination among the elderly. Conclusion The influenza vaccination rate among the elderly was relatively low, and was mainly affected by age, educational level, medical expense payment, vaccination willingness, influenza vaccination history and vaccine literacy.

Objective To investigate the clinical significance of the miR-543/syntrophin beta 1(SNTB1)axis in colorectal cancer(CRC)and its influence on the tumor immune microenvironment.Methods The expression of SNTB1 in CRC tissues was analyzed using public data,such as,The Cancer Genome Atlas(TCGA),Genotype-Tissue Expression(GTEx),and Human Protein Atlas(HPA).Then Kaplan-Meier survival analysis,univariate Cox regression analysis and correlation analysis were performed to evaluate the prognostic value of SNTB1 and its relationship with immune microenvironment in CRC.The targeting relationship between miR-543 and SNTB1 was confirmed through online databases and fluorescence assays in HT-29 cells.For in vitro experiments,after transfecting si-SNTB1,miR-543 mimics and/or SNTB1 overexpression plasmids,HT-29 cells were co-cultured with CD8+T cells,the expression of miR543 and SNTB1 and the viability and cytotoxicity of CD8+T cells were assessed with qRT-PCR,Western blotting,flow cytometry,ELISA,and lactate dehydrogenase(LDH)release assay.Results Analysis of public databases revealed significantly higher expression of SNTB1 in CRC tissues than normal tissues(P<0.001).The CRC patients with high SNTB1 expression exhibited poorer prognosis when compared with those with low expression level(P<0.05).Moreover,high SNTB1 expression was negatively correlated with immune scores in the tumor microenvironment and immune cell infiltration,especially CD8+T cells(P<0.05).Furthermore,Knockdown of SNTB1 in HT-29 cells enhanced the cytotoxic activity of CD8+T cells(P<0.01).Online database and in vitro experiments confirmed that miR-543 targets SNTB1,while the expression of miR-543 was decreased in colorectal cancer(P<0.001).Transfection with the miR-543 mimic inhibited the expression of SNTB1 in HT-29 cells(P<0.001),while overexpressing SNTB1 counteracted the promotion effect of miR-543 mimics on CD8+T cell-mediated cytotoxicity(P<0.05).Conclusion MiR-543 activates CD8+T cells and enhances their cytotoxicity against HT-29 cells by directly targeting SNTB1.

Objective:To explore the classification and influencing factors of family resilience and post-traumatic growth in patients with spinal tumor.Methods:A cross-sectional investigation was conducted among 219 inpatients with spinal tumor admitted from July 2021 to July 2022. The General Demographic Information questionnaire, Chinese-Family Resilience Assessment Scale, Posttraumatic Growth Inventory, Family Crisis-Oriented Personal Evaluation Scales (F-COPES), and Social Support Rating Scale (SSRS) were used in the study. The ordinal and multivariate logistic regression analyses was applied to identify the factors associated with the classification of family resilience and post-traumatic growth.Results:Of the 219 patients, there were 62 cases of primary spinal tumors (28.3%). According to the results of latent profile analysis, the respondents were classified into three categories by family resilience and post-traumatic growth, namely family difficulty-resistant type ( n=38, 17.4%), general resilience-struggle type ( n=99, 45.2%) and family adaptation-growth type ( n=82, 37.4%). There were significant differences in occupational status, commitment to housework, family atmosphere( χ2=10.75, P=0.025; χ2=6.95, P=0.031; χ2=11.37, P=0.017), and total score of F-COPES and SSRS ( F=25.95, P<0.001; F=19.06, P<0.001)among three groups. Ordinal and multivariate logisitc regression analyses showed that retirement ( OR=2.928, 95% CI:1.098-7.808, P<0.05), family coping ( OR=1.113, 95% CI:1.063-1.165, P<0.05), and social support ( OR=1.226, 95% CI:1.103-1.362, P<0.05) were independently associated with family resilience and post-traumatic growth in patients with spinal tumor. Conclusion:Patients with spinal tumor have significant differences in characteristics by family resilience and post-traumatic growth. As a result, more targeted interventions should be provided for different categories of spinal tumor patients in the future.

Objective:To investigate the influential factors of patients' expectations for clinical decision-making during digestive endoscopy.Methods:A total of 120 patients who underwent digestive endoscopy were admitted to the Endoscopy Center of Zhejiang Provincial People's Hospital from January 2020 to January 2022. Their general information was collected, and their clinical decision-making expectations were evaluated using the Control Preference Scale (CPS). The influential factors of clinical decision-making expectations were determined using multiple linear regression analysis.Results:The total CPS score for 120 patients undergoing digestive endoscopy was (50.72 ± 5.48) points, including (14.12 ± 1.48) points for information needs, (25.17 ± 3.52) points for communication needs, and (11.43 ± 2.04) points for decision-making needs. Univariate analysis showed that the CPS score of patients undergoing digestive endoscopy was related to gender, age, marital status, educational level, number of children, and type of visit ( t = 2.68, 2.61, 2.82, 3.28, 3.61, 2.39, all P < 0.05). Multiple linear regression analysis showed that gender, age, educational level, and type of visit were the influential factors of clinical decision-making expectations for patients undergoing digestive endoscopy ( β = -0.71, 1.07, 0.53, -1.15, all P < 0.05). Conclusion:Gender, age, educational level, and type of visit are influential factors of patients' expectations for clinical decision-making during digestive endoscopy. Patients have a clear need for communication during clinical decision-making, and medical staff can strengthen communication with patients, correctly guiding them to participate in clinical decision-making expectations.

Objective To investigate the expressions of H3.3G34W,p63 and SATB2 in giant cell tumor of bone(GCTB)and the effect and value of their combined application in the diagnosis of GCTB.Methods We collected the samples and medical records of 54 cases of GCTB and 83 cases of non-giant cell tumor of bone(14 cases of aneurysmal bone cyst,16 cases of chondroblastoma and 53 cases of non-ossifying fibroma)diagnosed between 2020 and 2022 in the Department of Pathology of Honghui Hospital Affiliated to Xi'an Jiaotong University.The expressions of H3.3G34W,p63 and SATB2 were detected by EliVision immunohistochemical method.X2 test was used to determine whether there are significant differences in the positive rates of H3.3G34W,p63 and SATB2 among all the groups.The combined diagnostic model including H3.3G34W,p63 and SATB2 was established by Logistic regression analysis,and the diagnostic value of the model was evaluated by ROC curve analysis.Results The positive rates of H3.3G34W,p63 and SATB2 in GCTB group were 81.5％,90.7％and 92.6％,respectively;the positive rates in NGCTB group were 2.4％,28.9％and 62.7％.Compared with NGCTB group,the age of GCTB group was significantly older[(41.222±14.849)vs.(16.566±9.439),P＜0.001],and the prevalence was higher in women than in men(51.9％vs.48.1％,P＜0.001).In addition,compared with the NGCTB group,the positive rates of H3.3G34W(81.5％vs.2.4％,P＜0.001),p63(90.7％vs.28.9％,P＜0.001)and SATB2(92.6％vs.62.7％,P＜0.001)were significantly higher in the GCTB group.Univariate regression analysis built a univariate prediction modeland ROC curve analysis showed that age(AUC=92.9％,P＜0.001),sex(AUC=64.5％,P=0.004),H3.3G34W positive rate(AUC=89.5％,P＜0.001),p63 positive rate(AUC=80.9％,P＜0.001)and SATB2 positive rate(AUC=65.0％,P=0.003)were independent predictors of diagnosis of giant cell tumor of bone.Multivariate regression analysis(Logistic)constructed a hybrid prediction model.ROC curve analysis suggested that the hybrid model showed better prediction value than the single factor model(AUC=98.4％,P＜0.001).Conclusion H3.3G34W,p63 and SATB2 are effective molecular markers for the diagnosis of GCTB,and their combined application can improve the prediction efficiency of the diagnosis of GCTB.

Objective To observe the effects of Guanxinning tablet on atherosclerotic plaque,renal function,hemorheology,blood homocysteine(Hcy)and immunoinflammation in patients with blood stasis type chronic renal failure complicated by hemodialysis and carotid atherosclerosis.Methods According to the diagnosis,inclusion and exclusion criteria,67 patients with blood stasis type chronic renal failure complicated with carotid atherosclerosis and undergoing hemodialysis from Lishui Second People's Hospital and Lishui Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine from January 2023 to January 2024 were selected and randomly divided into control group(33 cases)and observation group(34 cases).The control group received routine treatment of chronic renal failure and hemodialysis.In the observation group,Guanxinning tablet was added to the basic treatment,and the levels of carotid atherosclerotic plaque,renal function,hemorheology,blood Hcy and immunoinflammation were detected in both groups before and after treatment.Results There were no significant differences in general information,carotid atherosclerotic plaque,renal function,hemorheology,blood Hcy level and immunoinflammation level between the two groups before treatment(P>0.05).After treatment,the observation group was superior to the control group in reducing carotid plaque,improving carotid intimedia thickening,improving renal function,reducing inflammatory index level and improving immune function(P<0.05),but there was no significant difference in reducing blood Hcy level compared with the control group(P>0.05).Conclusion Guanxinning tablet can improve the chronic inflammation in the body of patients with blood stasis type chronic renal failure combined with hemodialysis and carotid atherosclerosis,reduce blood viscosity,inhibit red blood cell aggregation,thereby improving carotid atherosclerosis,reducing carotid atherosclerotic plaque,improving renal function and improving immune function of patients,but does not reduce blood Hcy level.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of eravacycline in the treatment of complicated intra-abdominal infection(cIAI)in Chinese adult patients.Methods In this multicenter,randomized,double-blind phase Ⅲ study,cIAI patients were randomly assigned to receive either eravacycline(1.0 mg/kg,q12h)or ertapenem(1 g,q24h)by intravenous infusion for 5 to 14 days.The primary and secondary efficacy endpoints included the clinical efficacy and microbiological efficacy in different populations,including modified intention-to-treat(MITT)population,clinically evaluable(CE)population,and microbiologically evaluable(ME)population,at different time points after treatment.Clinical cure rates at specific visits were summarized and compared between treatment groups in different populations.The microbial eradication rate was calculated for the patients with baseline pathogens.The incidence of adverse events(AE)and drug-related treatment emergent adverse event(TEAE)was analyzed by treatment group.Results A total of 144 patients with cIAI who received at least one dose of the study drug were included in the MITT population.The clinical cure rate was 77.8％(56/72)in eravacycline-treated patients and 90.3％(65/72)in ertapenem-treated patients at 25-31 days after the first dose(TOC visit).When the patients who received insufficient treatment(＜72 hours)were excluded,the clinical cure rate was 83.6％(56/67)in eravacycline group and 90.3％(65/72)in ertapenem.For CE and ME patients,the clinical cure rate at TOC visit was 91.1％(51/56)and 83.3％(25/30)in eravacycline group,95.3％(61/64)and 90.9％(30/33)in ertapenem group.Eravacycline treatment achieved microbiological eradication rate of 91.3％(21/23)against Escherichia coli at TOC visit in micro-MITT population while ertapenem treatment resulted in a microbiological eradication rate of 96.2％(25/26).The microbiological efficacy of eravacycline and ertapenem against Klebsiella pneumoniae was 4/5 and 3/3,respectively.The incidence of TEAE was similar in eravacycline and ertapenem groups(75.0％vs.70.8％),most of which were mild or moderate.The AEs associated with eravacycline were mainly infusion site phlebitis(9.7％,7/72)and infusion site pain(8.3％,6/72).Conclusions Similar to ertapenem,eravacycline has good clinical and microbiological efficacy in treating cIAI.It is also safe and well-tolerated in the patients.
