Objective To conduct microbiological monitoring before the operation of the purified water treatment system in a newly-built endoscopy center,comprehensively analyze the causes for the standard-exceeding results of microbial detection of final rinse water,propose solutions,and provide reference for handling similar events in the future.Methods Microbial detection data of the final rinse water in the newly-built digestive endoscopy center of a tertiary first-class general hospital in Beijing from April to July 2024 were monitored.The potential causes for standard-exceeding results of microbial detection of final rinse water were analyzed from the perspectives of equip-ment maintenance and management of the purified water treatment system as well as the improvement of cleaning and disinfection methods for the purified water supply pipeline in the endoscopy center,targeted improvement mea-sures were proposed accordingly.Results The microbial monitoring result of final rinse water in the newly-built di-gestive endoscopy center built in April 2024 was 1 400 CFU/100 mL,with the main bacterial type being Cupriavi-duspauculus.After five rounds of improvement measures and rechecks,microbial monitoring result of the final rinse water in the newly-built endoscopy center was 0 CFU/100 mL,with a qualification rate of 100％.Analysis suggested that the main causes for the standard-exceeding results of microbial detection of final rinse water were due to the damage of the reverse osmosis membrane,lack of cleaning for the pure water storage tank before use,and non-standard cleaning and disinfection process for the pure water supply pipeline,after targeted improvement,the problem was solved.Conclusion Medical institutions should continuously conduct periodic monitoring on water used for endoscope,regularly perform cleaning and disinfection of the purified water treatment system,standardize cleaning and disinfection procedures,ensure medical quality and patient safety.

Objective To identify the reasons why the monitored personal doses of radiation worker A in an institution exceeded the investigation level in 2023 and 2024, and remind workers to wear personal dosimeters in a standardized manner in scenarios such as work and business trips to ensure the authenticity and reliability of the monitoring data. Methods A thermoluminescence measurement system was used to read the personal dosimeters worn by radiation workers. Investigations were carried out on personnel whose doses exceeded the investigation level described in the “Specifications for individual monitoring of occupational external exposure” (GBZ 128—2019). The reasons for doses exceeding the investigation level were analyzed using additional dosimeters and conducting on-site experiments. Results In 2023 and 2024, radiation worker A recorded a total of 5 personal dose equivalents exceeding the investigation level (1.23 mSv) over a total of 8 monitoring cycles (each lasting 90 days). Following one cycle where the dose exceeded the investigation level, two additional dosimeters (each for a 30-day cycle) were issued to worker A, revealing readings below the investigation level for the 30-day monitoring cycle (0.41 mSv). The reading for the dosimeter was 2-3 μSv per time when passing through an X-ray security scanner, and approximately 2.10 mSv per time when passing through a computed tomography security scanner. Conclusion Within a 90-day monitoring cycle, a single exposure of a personal dosimeter to a computed tomography security scanner can result in a dose exceeding the investigation level. Radiation workers should avoid placing dosimeters in backpacks or suitcases that pass through computed tomography security scanners during business trips, so as to reduce the impact of security scanner irradiation on personal dose monitoring.

Objective To study the effect of practicing traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)guidance on the health in weightless conditions based on the examination results of the TCM diagnostic instrument.Methods 6 subjects in weightless conditions practiced TCM guidance for 14 consecutive days,once a day for 8 minutes each time.The Digital TCM Diagnostic Instrument and TCM Syndrome Diagnosis Scale were used to collect information before and after their practice of TCM guidance through diagnostic methods of observation,palpation and inquiry according to TCM theory.The data such as the degree of virtual-reality,pulse rate,and characteristic parameters of pulse diagrams h3/h1,h4/h1,t1,h1/t1 were processed and analyzed,and the changes before and after the practice were compared.Results Compared with before the practice,the degree of deficiency syndrome was significantly reduced after practicing TCM guidance(P<0.05),the pulse rate was significantly decreased(P<0.01),and the pulse diagnosis parameters h3/h1 and t1 were significantly decreased(P<0.05),while h4/h1 and h1/t1 showed no significant changes.Conclusion Practicing TCM guidance in weightless conditions is helpful for enhance cardiovascular regulatory function,correcting symptom bias,adjusting the body's balance state,and has a positive effect on health.

Sudden sensorineural hearing loss(SSNHL)is an idiopathic sensorineural hearing loss of at least 30 dB over three consecutive frequencies in less than 3 days.However,its pathogenesis is still unknown.Recent re-searches suggest that inflammation plays a very important role in its development and prognosis.For this reason,we reviewed the relationship between inflammation and SSNHL from the perspective of development and prognosis,and further discussed the role of inflammation in the pathogenesis of SSNHL.

Objective:To develop a double-antibody sandwich ELISA for detecting soluble advanced oxidation protein products(AOPPs).Methods:BALB/c mice were immunized with sodium hypochlorite-oxidized mouse albumin to generate AOPPs-specific monoclonal antibodies(mAbs).Specificity of the mAbs was assessed using indirect ELISA and Western blot.Competitive ELISA was employed to determine if the epitope recognized by newly prepared mAb was consistent with that recognized by mAb 3F2,which developed in our previous work.The sandwich ELISA was then established,and its specificity and sensitivity were compared with the chloramine-T method,the repeatability of double-mAb sandwich ELISA was verified.Results:A mAb AP-4C5 with specific AOPPs recognition was obtained,two sandwich ELISA were developed for the specific detection of soluble AOPPs.Double-mAb sandwich ELISA,using mAb 3F2 as the capture antibody and mAb AP-4C5 as the detection antibody,detected AOPPs in range of 0.25～2 μg/ml(R2=0.991 80).PcAb-mAb sandwich ELISA,using goat anti-HSA polyclonal antibody as the capture antibody and AP-4C5 as detection antibody,detected AOPPs in range of 1.5～25 μg/ml(R2=0.968 75).The double-mAb sandwich ELISA was found to be more sensitive and specific compared to chloramine-T method.Double-mAb sandwich ELISA has good reproducibility(intra-assay CV:3.23％～4.51％,inter-assay CV:3.08％～5.29％).Conclusion:Two kinds of sandwich ELISA for detecting soluble AOPPs have been estab-lished,which hold promise for the detection of clinical samples and understanding of the pathogenic mechanisms of AOPPs.

Based on single-cell sequencing of the hippocampi of 5x familiar Alzheimer's disease(5x FAD)and wild type mice at 2-,12-,and 24-month of age,we found an increased percentage of microglia in aging and Alzheimer's disease(AD)mice.Blood brain barrier injury may also have contributed to this increase.Immune regulation by microglia plays a major role in the progression of aging and AD,according to the functions of 41 intersecting differentially expressed genes in microglia.Signaling crosstalk between C-C motif chemokine ligand(CCL)and major histocompatibility complex-1 bridges intercellular communi-cation in the hippocampus during aging and AD.The amyloid precursor protein(APP)and colony stimulating factor(CSF)signals drive 5x FAD to deviate from aging track to AD occurrence among intercellular communication in hippocampus.Microglia are involved in the progression of aging and AD can be divided into 10 functional types.The strength of the interaction among microglial subtypes weakened with aging,and the CCL and CSF signaling pathways were the fundamental bridge of communication among microglial subtypes.
