Objective: To investigate the status quo and associated factors of drinking water knowledge, attitude and behavior among primary school students in rural areas, so as to provide evidence for health behavioral intervention of drinking water in primary school. Methods: Twentythree primary schools in rural area from Hebei, Henan, Shandong and Shanxi provinces were selected by using purposive sampling method from March 1 to April 27 in 2023. Selfdesigned questionnaires regarding knowledge, attitude and behavior of drinking water were distributed to all students in grade 3-6, and 2 173 valid questionnaires were obtained. Multivariate Logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of drinking water knowledge, attitude and behavior of primary school students. Results: The attainment rates of drinking water knowledge, attitude and behavior level were 20.02%, 26.65%, and 31.20%, respectively, among primary school students. The median of daily water intake was 1 000 mL, and the average daily water intake was (1 172.99±771.89)mL. In addition, 66.31% of students water intake reached the minimum standard of 800 mL recommended. The results of multiple Logistic regression indicated that drinking water accessibility in school, health education of drinking water, and individual selfcontrol ability were positively correlated with the knowledge (OR=1.31, 1.57, 1.58), attitude (OR=2.07, 1.65, 1.73), behavior (OR=1.40, 1.49, 1.91) of drinking water and daily water intake (OR=1.41, 1.38, 1.20) (P<0.05). Conclusions Primary school students in rural areas are generally lack of appropriate health awareness on drinking water including knowledge, attitude and behavior. Schools should take targeted measures to focus on the cultivation of students selfcontrol ability, so as to improve students knowledge and attitudes of drinking water, and furthermore help students shape their healthy behaviors of drinking water.

Background The increasing demand for emergency services coupled with the special working environment has exacerbated occupational stress and work-related rumination among emergency medical dispatchers, which is noteworthy for its impact on dispatchers' sleep quality. Objective To explore the relationship among occupational stress, work-related rumination, and sleep quality of emergency medical dispatchers, so as to provide reference for improving sleep quality and maintaining physical and mental health of this occupational group. Methods A total of 386 emergency medical dispatchers from 16 provinces and municipalities including Beijing, Shanghai, Tianjin, Inner Mongolia, Zhejiang, Shanxi, Jiangxi, Anhui, Hubei, Hebei, Henan, Sichuan, Guizhou, Yunnan, Fujian, and Hainan of China were investigated with the Chinese version of Effort-Reward Imbalance Questionnaire, Work-Related Rumination Questionnaire, and Insomnia Severity Index. Spearman correlation was used to analyze the association among occupational stress, work-related rumination, and sleep quality. A structural equation model was constructed, with occupational stress as independent variable, the two dimensions of work-related rumination as mediating variables, and sleep quality as dependent variable, respectively. Bootstrap testing was then used to verify potential mediating effect of work-related rumination on the relationship between occupational stress and sleep quality among the emergency medical dispatchers. Results Among the enrolled emergency medical dispatchers, the effort-reward imbalance (ERI) index was 1.03, the score of affective rumination was 15.35±5.26, the score of problem-solving rumination was 17.64±4.63, and the total score of sleep quality was 21.10±6.53. Their ERI index was positively correlated with affective rumination scores (r=0.636, P<0.01), but not with problem-solving rumination scores (P>0.05). Their ERI index, affective rumination scores, and problem-solving rumination scores were positively correlated with sleep quality scores (P<0.05). The direct effect size of occupational stress on sleep quality was 0.627, the indirect effect size of affective rumination was 0.124, and the mediating effect of affective rumination accounted for 16.4% of the total effect (0.755), while the problem-solving rumination had no mediating effect on the relationship between occupational stress and sleep quality. Conclusion Occupational stress and affective rumination in emergency medical dispatchers can predict their sleep quality. Occupational stress can directly affect sleep quality, and indirectly affect it through affective rumination. Managers should pay attention to and evaluate the affective rumination level of emergency medical dispatchers, so as to take corresponding intervention measures to reduce their occupational stress and improve their sleep quality.

Objective To observe the effect of sevoflurane(SEV)on the expression of myocardial biological clock gene aromatic hydrocarbon receptor nuclear transport-like protein 1(BMAL1)in diabetic rats and to explore its changes.Methods Sixty healthy male SD rats with a body mass of 200-250 g were divided into oxygen inhalation group(NC)and sevoflurane inhalation group(SEV).The diabetic model was routinely replicated,and the model was divided into oxygen group(DM)and sevoflurane group(DM+SEV)with an inhalation time of 5 h(n=15).Four groups of experimental animals were executed at 0,12 and 24 h after the anesthesia was stopped and then myocardial tissue was isolated.Western blot was used to determine the expression level of biological clock gene BMAL1 protein and its activation enzyme USP9X;HE staining microspy to observe the pathological changes of my-ocardial tissue and immuno-fluorescence co-localization to observe the relationship between USP9X and BMAL1.Results At 0 and 12 h after stopping anesthesia,the expression of BMAL1 and USP9X in the DM+SEV group was significantly down-regulated as compared with the DM group,and the expression of BMAL1 and USP9X in the DM+SEV group was significantly down-regulated(P<0.05)at 24 h after stopping anesthesia(P>0.05).HE staining microscopy found changes of myocardial tissue structure in the DM+SEV group at 0 and 12 hrs after stopping anes-thesia.This change was most significant at 0 h after stopping anesthesia,but the myocardial tissue structure was neatly arranged at 24 h.The results of immuno-fluorescence colocalization showed that USP9X and BMAL1 proteins were mainly distributed in the cytoplasm of cardio-myocardium with and overlapping parts between them.Under the influence of sevoflurane,there was less overlap between the two at 0 and 12 hrs after stopping anesthesia and more overlap between the two at 24 h,which was close to that of the DM group.Conclusions Sevoflurane reversibly changes the expression of myocardial circadian clock gene BMAL1 in diabetic rats and this change still existe for 12 h after stopping anesthesia,then significantly fade away 24 hrs after stopping anesthesia.

Objective To explore the application efficacy and safety of oblique ultrasound-guided techniques in PICC puncture,in order to provide guidance and references for clinical application.Methods Through convenient sampling,654 patients from a tertiary A hospital in Zhejiang Province from March to December 2022 were selected as the study subjects.The random numbers were generated through Excel table functions and they were randomly grouped into 3 groups:A,B,and C.The ultrasound short axis method,long axis method,and oblique axis method were employed to guide PICC puncture catheterization,respectively.The success rate of PICC puncture,the number of subcutaneous adjustments of the puncture needle,puncture time,and the occurrence of puncture complications(such as hematoma,puncture of the posterior wall of blood vessels,accidental injury to arteries,and accidental injury to nerves)were recorded during the catheterization process in 3 groups.Results A total of 654 patients completed the study,including 215 in group A,219 in group B,and 220 in group C.The success rate of first-time puncture in the group C(86.36％)was higher than that in group A(73.95％)and group B(63.93％),and there was a statistically significant difference among 3 groups(P＜0.001).The subcutaneous adjustment frequency of the puncture needle was 1(1,1)in group C,1(1,2)in group A,and 1(1,2)in group B.The difference between 3 groups was statistically significant(P＜0.001);the puncture time of group C was shorter than that of group A and group B,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.001).There was a statistically significant difference in the puncture time between 3 groups(P＜0.017);the pairwise comparison of the number of subcutaneous needle adjustments and the success rate of a puncture between 3 groups showed that there was a statistical difference between group C and group A,and between group C and group B(P＜0.017),while there was no statistical difference between group A and group B(P＞0.017).There was statistical significance(P＜0.05)among 3 groups in terms of complications such as accidental nerve injury and puncture of the contralateral vascular wall by puncture needle,but there was no statistical significance in terms of accidental arterial injury and hematoma occurrence among 3 groups.Conclusion Compared with the short axis approach and the long axis approach,the ultrasound oblique axis approach guided PICC puncture has statistical differences in the success rate of a puncture and the incidence of puncture complications,etc.It is recommended to use the ultrasound oblique axis approach during PICC puncture.

Objective To investigate whether discontinuous sleep supplementation can reduce myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury in diabetic rats aggravated by circadian rhythm disorder.Methods The rats were injected intra-peritoneal with 1％streptozotocin(STZ)30 mg/kg combined with high-fat and high-glucose diet to replicate diabetic model.Forty diabetic rats were randomly divided into four groups with 10 in each:sham surgery group(Sham group),ischemia-reperfusion group(I/R group),in which the left anterior descending coronary artery(LDA)was ligated for thirty minutes and reperfusion for 2 h,circadian rhythm disorder group(Crd group,24 h daily light and food),discontinuous sleep supplementation group(Dss group,every 3 hours of illumination and 1.5 hours break at night).We analyzed the myocardial infarct size(by 2,3,5-triphenyltetrazolium chloride stai-ning),determined serum creatine kinase-myoglobin(CK-MB)activity and cardiac troponinⅠ(cTnⅠ)concentrations;the expression level of BMAL1 and REV-ERBα was determined by Western blot.Results Compared to the sham group,the I/R group showed a significantly increased in myocardial infarct size,serum CK-MB activity and cTnⅠ concentration.The expression of the myocardial biological clock gene BMAL1 was down-regulated,while the ex-pression of REV-ERBα was up-regulated(P<0.05).Compared to the I/R group,the Crd group showed a signifi-cantly increase in myocardial infarct size,serum CK-MB activity and cTnⅠ concentration.The expression of the myocardial biological clock gene BMAL1 was down-regulated,while the expression of REV-ERBα was up-regulated(P<0.05).Compared to the Crd group,Dss group showed a significantly decrease in the myocardial infarct size,serum cTn concentration and CK-MB activity.Furthermore,there was an increased protein expression of BMAL1 and a decrease of REV-ERBα(P<0.05).Conclusions Discontinuous sleep supplementation can reduce myocardial is-chemia-reperfusion injury in diabetic rats aggravated by circadian rhythm disorder.

Objective Neuromuscular electrical stimulation(NMES)-evoked kinesthetic information in muscle spindle can be purely extracted from the mixed motor and sensory afferents using Ischemic nerve block(INB).This study aims to investigate the somatosensory cortical response evoked by NMES activating muscle spindle afferents in forearm.Methods All subjects performed four experimental tasks designed according to a 2×2 factors,including one factor of the INB state(without INB and within INB)and the other of the stimulation intensity(above and below motor threshold).During the experiment,we recorded EEG data with 64 channels and then beta event-related desynchronization(Beta ERD)were utilized quantize somatosensory cortical excitability evoked by the tasks.The subjective perception about the sensation and movement of the right hand were evaluated by a psychophysical test after the right wrist was performed by INB.Results INB significantly reduced beta ERD on the contralateral somatosensory cortex evoked by NMES above the motor threshold,and there was significant difference of NMES-evoked beta ERD values on the contralateral somatosensory cortex between above and below motor threshold.Meanwhile,contralateral dominance of NMES-evoked beta ERD on the somatosensory cortex was transferred to ipsilateral hemisphere under INB.Conclusion INB can significantly reduce NMES-evoked somatosensory cortical response above motor threshold and decrease cortical perception on the stimulus intensity,which may be due to INB resulting in rapid functional reorganization of somatosensory cortex.

Objective To investigate the feasibility of granzyme B(GB)promoter-controlled ferritin heavy chain(FTH1)reporter gene expression for monitoring the activation status of chimeric antigen receptor T cells(CAR-T)by magnetic resonance imaging(MRI).Methods Cytotoxic T lymphocytes(CTLs)were screened by Ficoll density gradient centrifugation and flow sorting.The GB promoter and FTH1 gene were ligated together with disialoganglioside 2(GD2)CAR,and lentiviral vectors were transfected into CTLs to construct GD2-CAR-T/pGB-FTH1 cells.GD2-CAR-T/pCMV-FTH1,GD2-CAR-T,and T cells served as control cells.CytoTox96@non-radioactive cytotoxicity was used to detect the killing effect of each group of cells after co-culture with human neuroblastoma cells(SK-N-SH).ELISA was employed to detect the coincubation factor as well as the amount of GB secretion.Western blotting,Prussian blue staining and cellular MRI were applied to detect the expression of the FTH1 gene after co-culture.Results CTLs were successfully obtained,and then GD2-CAR-T/pGB-FTH1,GD2-CAR-T/pCMV-FTH1 and GD2-CAR-T cells were constructed.The killing effect,co-incubation factor and GB secretion of the above 3 groups of cells were significantly higher than those of the T cells,and the level of GB expression was highest at day 1,and then decreased in order at day 3 and day 7 after co-culturing with SK-N-SH cells.The relative expression of FTH1 and iron content of the GD2-CAR-T/pGB-FTH1 cells showed the same trend as GB expression,and the MRI signals were gradually increased.There were no significant differences in the relative expression of FTH1,iron content and MRI signals in the GD2-CAR-T/pCMV-FTH1 cells at all time points.No FTH1 expression or iron aggregation was observed in the GD2-CAR-T and T cells groups.Conclusion MRI based on the FTH1 reporter gene driven by the granzyme B promoter can reflect the GB expression level and tumor killing effect of CAR-T cells,which provides a potential real-time visual means to monitor the cell activation status for CAR-T therapy.

Catheter associated urinary tract infection (CAUTI) refer to urinary system infections that occur after the insertion of a urinary catheter or within 48 hours after its removal. CAUTI exacerbate patient conditions, prolong hospital stays, increase medical costs and economic burdens on patients, and can be life-threatening in severe cases. The Asia Pacific Society of Infection Control (APSIC) convened a working group of infection prevention and control experts from the Asia-Pacific region to publish the APSIC guideline for prevention of catheter associated urinary tract infections (CAUTIs) (referred to as the "APSIC Guideline"). This guideline encompasses the prevention and management of CAUTI in patients with indwelling catheters, covering the entire process from catheter insertion, maintenance, to removal, and are characterized by their practicability and directive nature. This article interprets the APSIC Guideline from aspects such as risk factors of CAUTI, diagnosis, development of prevention strategies, monitoring, and implementation of prevention plans, aiming to provide scientific guidance for clinical healthcare professionals in preventing CAUTI.

OBJECTIVE To comprehensively screen the optimal steaming time of salt-steaming Morinda officinalis （SSMO） based on Q-markers and anti-oxidative activities， and to establish characteristic quality standard of the decoction pieces. METHODS The contents of six Q-markers （1-kestose， nystose， 1F-fructofuranosylnystose， inulotriose， inulotetraose and inulopentaose） in SSMO at different steaming time were determined by HPLC-ELSD method simultaneously. The activity of sample extracts to scavenge 4 kinds of oxidative free radical and their iron reduction abilities were determined by visible UV spectrophotometer. The optimal steaming time of SSMO was screened by gray relevance degree and entropy weight technique for order preference by similarity to an ideal solution （TOPSIS）-fusion model method. The contents of six Q-markers in 10 batches of SSMO prepared at the optimal steaming time were determined. HPLC-ELSD fingerprints of SSMO decoction pieces were established. RESULTS The results showed that the contents of six Q-markers were the highest when SSMO was steamed for 3-5 h； and the ability of scavenging DPPH·， ABTS·， PTIO·， ·OH and iron reduction ability was the best at 5 h. There were 20 common peaks in the fingerprints for 10 batches of samples， and the similarities were higher than 0.990. A total of 9 chromatographic peaks were identified， which were D-fructose （peak 1）， D（+）-glucose （peak 2）， sucrose （peak 3）， 1-kestose （peak 4）， nystose （peak 5）， 1F-fructofuranosylnystose （peak 6）， inulotriose （peak X2）， inulotetraose （peak X3） and inulopentaose （peak X4）. Average contents of six Q-markers were 4.17%， 5.54%， 6.60%， 2.89%， 2.62% and 2.13%， respectively. CONCLUSIONS The optimal steaming time of SSMO is 5 h； the contents of six Q-markers are primarily determined on the basis of dry product， which are no less than 3.03%， 4.11%， 4.87%， 2.15%， 1.96% and 1.58%， respectively. The ratio of Inulin-/Inulo oligosaccharides content is no more than 2.5.
