ObjectiveTo investigate the first-diagnosed reporting rate and annual changing trends of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) among adult residents in Changzhou City from 2020 to 2024, and to provide a scientific basis for the prevention and control of COPD in this region. MethodsData on first-diagnosed cases of COPD from 2020 to 2024 were collected from the Changzhou Health Data Management Platform, along with resident population data stratified by age group and sex for the corresponding years. Stratified analyses were conducted by diagnosis year, sex, and age group to calculate crude first-diagnosed reporting rate and age-specific first-diagnosed reporting rate. The age-standardized first-diagnosed reporting rate (ASFDRR) was calculated using data from the Seventh National Population Census of China (2020) as the standard population. A logarithmic-linear model was employed to estimate the average annual percentage change (AAPC) in ASFDRR, along with its 95%CI and P-value. ResultsFrom 2020 to 2024, a total of 12 925 first-diagnosed COPD cases of adult residents were reported in Changzhou City. The overall crude first-diagnosed reporting rate increased from 37.91/100 000 in 2020 to 100.68/100 000 in 2024. The overall ASFDRR rose from 116.83/100 000 in 2020 to 274.59/100 000 in 2024, with an AAPC of 26.55% (95%CI: 5.98%‒51.11%). Among these,9 831 new cases were male, with the crude first-diagnosed reporting rate increasing from 57.07/100 000 to 159.29/100 000, and the ASFDRR increasing from 92.54/100 000 to 223.82 / 100 000, with an AAPC of 27.58% (95%CI: 6.21%‒53.26%). There were 3 094 new female cases, with the crude first-diagnosed reporting rate rising from 19.53/100 000 to 45.39/100 000, and the ASFDRR increasing from 26.01/100 000 to 55.33/100 000, with an AAPC of 22.90% (95%CI: 5.19%‒43.59%). Both crude and age-standardized first-diagnosed reporting rates of COPD for the total population and different gender groups showed a statistically significant upward trend as age increased (all P<0.05). The reporting peaks were primarily concentrated in the 80 years old age group. ConclusionThe age-standardized first-diagnosed reporting rate of COPD in Changzhou City exhibited a rapid upward trend from 2020 to 2024. ASFDRR was higher in males than that in females, and the elderly population constituted the main reported group. This trend warrants close attention, emphasizing the need to strengthen screening, early intervention, and standardized management for high-risk populations.

Objective To analyze the clinical characteristics of measles cases in the measles elimination stage and to provide a scientific basis for the prevention, control, diagnosis and treatment of measles. Methods The descriptive epidemiological method was used to analyze the clinical characteristics of 442 confirmed measles cases in Hebei Province from 2018 to 2020. Results Among the 442 measles cases, the main symptoms were rash (96.61%), fever (90.50%), cough (56.11%), and Koplik spots (30.09%). Complications were mainly pneumonia (12.22%). There were significant differences in symptoms among different age groups (P < 0.05). The incidence of symptoms in children under 5 years old (except cough) was higher than that in other age groups. Immunization history had no significant impact on the symptoms of fever and rash (P > 0.05), but the incidence of symptoms such as cough, conjunctivitis, Koplik's spots and catarrhal rhinitis in the immunized group was lower than that in the non-immunized group (P < 0.05). The group with an interval of 0 days from fever to rash was the largest, and the proportion of people with an immunization history in the 0-day group (68.06%) was significantly higher than that in the 3-4-day group (49.44%) (P < 0.05). Pneumonia complications were mainly concentrated in children under 5 years old (87.03%), and most of the cases had a 0-dose immunization history (81.48%). Conclusion In the measles elimination stage, the incidence of fever and rash in cases is relatively high, while the incidence of Koplik spots is relatively low. The symptoms are more obvious in the younger age group. Vaccination can reduce the incidence of specific symptoms. The change in the time of rash appearance suggests that the diagnosis and treatment plan need to be adjusted. This study provides key data support for the formulation of measles prevention, control and treatment strategies.

Objective: To investigate the prevalence and influencing factors of dyslipidemia among residents in Changzhou City, Jiangsu Province, so as to provide insights into improving prevention and control strategies of dyslipidemia. Methods: Permanent residents aged 35 to 75 years were recruited based on the Early Screening and Comprehensive Intervention Project for High-risk Populations of Cardiovascular Disease in Changzhou City from 2016 to 2023. Demographic information, body mass index (BMI), total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) were investigated through questionnaire surveys, physical examinations and laboratory tests, and the prevalence of dyslipidemia were analyzed. Factors affecting dyslipidemia were identified using a multivariable logistic regression model. Results: A total of 22 447 residents were surveyed, including 9 142 males (40.73%) and 13 305 females (59.27%), and had a median age of 57.00 (interquartile range, 18.00) years. There were 7 535 cases of dyslipidemia, with a prevalence rate of 33.57%. The prevalence rates of low HDL-C, high TG, high TC, and high LDL-C were 22.27%, 15.89%, 4.06% and 2.27%, respectively. Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that the residents who were male (OR=1.780, 95%CI: 1.645-1.924), had more than 50 000 yuan of annual household income (OR=1.215, 95%CI: 1.142-1.293), had higher educational level (junior high school/senior high school/technical secondary school, OR=1.138, 95%CI: 1.047-1.237; junior college and above, OR=1.232, 95%CI: 1.095-1.386), smoked frequently (OR=1.504, 95%CI: 1.369-1.653), were overweight (OR=1.763, 95%CI: 1.650-1.885) or obese (OR=2.351, 95%CI: 2.149-2.572), had hypertension (OR=1.478, 95%CI: 1.384-1.579) and diabetes (OR=1.706, 95%CI: 1.586-1.835) had a higher risk of dyslipidemia; while the residents who consumed alcohol at 4 times per week and more (OR=0.619, 95%CI: 0.557-0.688) had a lower risk of dyslipidemia. Conclusions The main types of dyslipidemia are low HDL-C and high TG among residents aged 35 years and above in Changzhou City. The prevalence of dyslipidemia is mainly associated with gender, annual household income, educational level, smoking, alcohol consumption, BMI, hypertension and diabetes.

Objective To analyze the operation of Measles Surveillance System (MSS) in Hebei Province, and to provide evidence for measles elimination. Methods Measles surveillance data was collected from the MSS from 2020 to 2023, and a modified weighted technology for order preference by similarity to an ideal solution (TOPSIS) method was used to evaluate the surveillance indexes of measles in Hebei Province. Results The operation quality of the measles surveillance system in Hebei Province was improved year by year, with the highest quality in 2023, and all the indicators reached the monitoring program standards. The quality of measles surveillance system was not balanced among cities, and the main influencing factor was the substandard sensitivity indicators. The quality of measles surveillance system was the highest in Baoding City and the lowest in Zhangjiakou City. Conclusion The measles surveillance system in Hebei province is running well, and the sensitivity of the surveillance system should be improved to keep the high-quality operation of the surveillance system.

Objective:To study the optimal anastomotic angle of end-to-side anastomosis autogenous arteriovenous fistula (AVF).Methods:A case-report and case-series design was used to obtain clinical data on 10 patients with diabetic nephropathy from Department of Nephrology, the 905th Hospital of the Chinese People′s Liberation Army Navy from June 2024 to February 2025. The models of "radial artery-cephalic vein" end-to-side anastomosis in the forearm with anastomotic angles of 30°, 40°and 50°were established. Numerical simulation was used to analyze the blood flow in the model, and to study the effect of different anastomotic angles on blood flow. Wall shear stress (WSS), cross section flow velocity and flow rate, and relative residence time (RRT) were studied in the model. The Whitney test with Holm correction was used to evaluate the difference in the median RRT between the three angle models.Results:At the moment of 0.65 s, the area fraction of low wall shear stress (LWSS) in the 30° model was 7.7%, which was reduced by 2.4% and 3.7% compared to the 40°and 50°models, respectively. At the time of 0.2 s, the area proportions of high wall shear stress (HWSS) in the 30°, 40°and 50°models were 54.4%, 43.9% and 37.4%, respectively. At 0.2 s, the maximum cross section flow velocity reached 4.07, 3.84 and 3.67 m/s for the 30°, 40°and 50°models, respectively. In the cycle, the maximum mean flow velocity for the 30°model reached 1.20 m/s. The mean flow rates of the 30°, 40°and 50°models in the J-5 cross section were 349, 316, and 328 ml/min, respectivly. For patient 6, the area proportions of the RRT>1 region were 11.97%, 14.84% and 15.22% for the 30°, 40°and 50°models, respectively.Conclusions:The optimal anastomotic angle of "radial artery-cephalic vein" for end-to-side anastomosis AVF surgery in patients with diabetic nephropathy is 40°.

Objectives:To investigate the effect of the expression of low-density lipoprotein receptor associated protein (LDLR) on the vascular abnormalities in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and its mechanisms.Methods:Based on the information of Oncomine Cancer GeneChip database, we analyzed the correlation between the expression level of LDLR and the expression level of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and CD31 in hepatocellular carcinoma tissues. Lentiviral transfection of short hairpin RNA target genes was used to construct LDLR-knockdown MHCC-97H and HLE hepatocellular carcinoma cells. The differential genes and their expression level changes in LDLR-knockdown hepatocellular carcinoma cells were detected by transcriptome sequencing, real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction, and protein immunoblotting. The gene-related signaling pathways that involve LDLR were clarified by enrichment analysis. The effect of LDLR on CEA was assessed by the detection of CEA content in conditioned medium of hepatocellular carcinoma cells. Angiogenesis assay was used to detect the effect of LDLR on the angiogenic capacity of human umbilical vein endothelial cells, as well as the role of CEA in the regulation of angiogenesis by LDLR. Immunohistochemical staining was used to detect the expression levels of LDLR in 176 hepatocellular carcinoma tissues, and CEA and CD31 in 146 hepatocellular carcinoma tissues, and analyze the correlations between the expression levels of LDLR, CEA, and CD31 in the tissues, serum CEA, and alanine transaminase (ALT).Results:Oncomine database analysis showed that the expressions of LDLR and CEA in the tissues of hepatocellular carcinoma patients with portal vein metastasis were negatively correlated ( r=-0.64, P=0.001), whereas the expressions of CEA and CD31 in these tissues were positively correlated ( r=0.46, P=0.010). The transcriptome sequencing results showed that there were a total of 1 032 differentially expressed genes in the LDLR-knockdown group and the control group of MHCC-97H cells, of which 517 genes were up-regulated and 515 genes were down-regulated. The transcript expression level of CEACAM5 was significantly up-regulated in the cells of the LDLR-knockdown group. The Gene Ontology (GO) function enrichment analysis showed that the differential genes were most obviously enriched in the angiogenesis function. The Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) signaling pathway enrichment analysis showed that the relevant pathways involved mainly included the cellular adhesion patch, the extracellular matrix receptor interactions, and the interactions with the extracellular matrix receptors. The CEA content in the conditioned medium of the LDLR-knockdown group was 43.75±8.43, which was higher than that of the control group (1.15±0.14, P＜0.001). The results of angiogenesis experiments showed that at 5 h, the number of main junctions, the number of main segments, and the total area of the lattice formed by HUVEC cells cultured with the conditioned medium of MHCC-97H cells in the LDLR-knockdown group were 295.3±26.4, 552.5±63.8, and 2 239 781.0±13 8211.9 square pixels, which were higher than those of the control group (113.3±23.5, 194.8±36.5, and 660 621.0±280 328.3 square pixels, respectively, all P＜0.01).The number of vascular major junctions, the number of major segments, and the total area of the lattice formed by HUVEC cells cultured in conditioned medium with HLE cells in the LDLR-knockdown group were 245.3±42.4, 257.5±20.4, and 2 535 754.5±249 094.2 square pixels, respectively, which were all higher than those of the control group (113.3±23.5, 114.3±12.2, and 1 565 456.5±219 259.7 square pixels, respectively, all P＜0.01). In the conditioned medium for the control group of MHCC-97H cells,the number of main junctions, the number of main segments, and the total area of the lattice formed by the addition of CEA to cultured HUVEC cells were 178.9±12.0, 286.9±12.3, and 1 966 990.0±126 249.5 spixels, which were higher than those in the control group (119.7±22.1, 202.7±33.7, and 1 421 191.0±189 837.8 square pixels, respectively). The expression of LDLR in hepatocellular carcinoma tissues was not correlated with the expression of CEA, but was negatively correlated with the expression of CD31 ( r=-0.167, P=0.044), the level of serum CEA ( r=-0.061, P=0.032), and the level of serum ALT (r=-0.147, P=0.05). The expression of CEA in hepatocellular carcinoma tissues was positively correlated with the expression of CD31 ( r=0.192, P=0.020). The level of serum CEA was positively correlated with the level of serum ALT ( r=0.164, P=0.029). Conclusion:Knocking down LDLR can promote vascular abnormalities in HCC by releasing CEA.

Data analysis models may assist the transmission of traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） experience and clinical diagnosis and treatment， and the possibility of constructing a “data-knowledge” dual-drive model was explored by taking gastric precancerous state as an example. Data-driven is to make clinical decisions around data analysis， and its syndrome-differentiation decision-making research relies on hidden structural models and partially observable Markov decision-making processes to identify the etiology of diseases， syndrome elements， evolution of pathogenesis， and syndrome differentiation protocols； knowledge-driven is to make use of data and information to promote decision-making and action processes， and its syndrome-differentiation decision-making research relies on convolutional neural networks to improve the accuracy of local disease identification and syndrome differentiation. The “data-knowledge” dual-driven model can make up for the shortcomings of single-drive numerical simulation accuracy， and achieve a balance between local disease identification and macroscopic syndrome differentiation. On the basis of previous research， we explored the construction method of diagnostic assisted decision-making platform for gastric precancerous state， and believed that the diagnostic and decision-making ability of doctors can be extended through the assistance of machines and algorithms. Meanwhile， the related research methods were integrated and the core features of gastric precancerous state based on TCM syndrome differentiation and endoscopic pathology diagnosis and prediction were obtained， and the elements of endoscopic pathology recognition based on TCM syndrome differentiation were explored， so as to provide ideas for the in-depth research and innovative application of cutting-edge data analysis technology in the field of intelligent TCM syndrome differentiation.
