Objective: To analyze the epidemiological characteristics, etiological distribution and risk factors of recurrent hand, foot and mouth disease (HFMD) in Jiaxing City, so as to provide scientific evidence for developing targeted prevention and control strategies. Methods: Based on the China Disease Prevention and Control Information System, data of all reported HFMD cases in Jiaxing City from January 1, 2016 to December 31, 2024 were collected. Epidemiological and etiological distribution characteristics of recurrent HFMD cases were described. The Kaplan-Meier method was applied to estimate the cumulative risk probability of reinfection, and the Cox proportional hazards regression model was used to identify risk factors for HFMD reinfection. Results: A total of 3 105 recurrent HFMD cases were reported in Jiaxing City during 2016-2024, with a reinfection rate of 3.99%. The majority of reinfections were second episodes (97.68%). HFMD reinfection was associated with sex, age, population category and etiological serotype ( χ 2=26.44, 609.92, 459.72, 32.01, all P <0.01). The incidence of recurrent HFMD exhibited a bimodal seasonal pattern, with peaks occurring from June to July and September to November. Spatial distribution indicated that Nanhu District, Jiashan County and Tongxiang City accounted for 49.02% of all recurrent cases citywide. Among 264 laboratory confirmed recurrent cases, EV-A71 was the predominant pathogen (29.92%). The proportion of EV-A71 showed a trend of initial decline followed by rebound, while the proportion of CV-A6 increased over time ( χ 2 trend =6.94, 47.43, both P <0.05). Of 51 patients with ≥2 etiological test results, 56.86 % experienced reinfection with a different serotype. The median time to HFMD reinfection was 17.23 (0.50, 105.03) months after the primary episode. The reinfection probability was 0.61% at 6 months, 3.68% at 36 months, and remained approximately 5% at 64.37 months. Multivariate Cox regression revealed that male sex ( HR =1.23), age ≤ 3 years ( HR = 1.84), and scattered children and preschool children ( HR =3.78, 3.47, respectively) were independent risk factors for HFMD reinfection (all P <0.05). Conclusions Recurrent HFMD in Jiaxing City presents temporal and population heterogeneity, and its etiology shows an alternating serotype evolution pattern. Enhanced surveillance should be implemented among priority populations and high incidence regions, and multivalent vaccines should be developed to confer broader protection.

Objective To analyze the distribution and epidemic characteristics of child injury cases in Pingshan District from 2021 to 2022, and to provide evidence for the prevention and control of child injuries. Methods The injury monitoring data of Pingshan District from 2021 to 2022 were collected χ² and Post hoc testing were used for data analysis and comparison. Results From 2021 to 2022 , a total of 6 941 child injury cases were reported in Pingshan District, accounting for 20.58% of the total reported cases. Children aged 1 to 4 years old tended to be injured at home (58.49%, AR=23.75) and at night (43.74%, AR=5.34), and the injury causes mainly were falls/drops (49.22%, AR=4.66) and burns/scalds (2.98%, AR=7.15). Children aged 5 to 9 tended to be injured in schools and public places (26.55%%, AR=6.63) and public living places (18.51%, AR=3.33), and the injury causes mostly were animal attacks (26.48%, AR=6.97). Children aged 10 to 14 tended to be injured in schools and public places (31.39%, AR=10.81), highways/streets (17.71%, AR=3.78), as well as sports and activity places (12.20%, AR=15.66), and the injury causes tended to be knife/sharp instrument injuries. In the morning, injuries mostly occurred in schools and public places (17.98%, AR=3.24). In the afternoon, injuries tended to occur in schools and public places (39.41%, AR=9.89) as well as sports and activity places (37.50%, AR=3.52), and in the evening, injuries mostly occurred at home (46.49%, AR=10.17) and in public living places (46.07%, AR=5.44). Conclusion Governments, institutions, communities, and families should speed up the construction of a child injury prevention system with the participation of the whole society, and jointly create child-friendly environments in families, schools, public places, sports places, and road traffic . At the same time, it is necessary to strengthen injury prevention education , improve the injury prevention awareness and skills of students and guardians, and effectively reduce the occurrence of children's injuries starting from primary prevention.

Objective:To investigate the expression of placenta expressed transcript 1(Plet1)in ovarian tissue of the letrozole-induced model rats of polycystic ovary syndrome(PCOS)and its effect on the proliferation of rat ovarian granulosa cells,and to clarify the possible mechanism by which Plet1 may contribute to the pathogenesis of PCOS.Methods:The ovarian tissue samples from the rats collected in previous studies were used and divided into control and PCOS groups.Real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR(RT-qPCR)and Western blotting methods were used to detect the expression levels of Plet1 mRNA and protein in ovarian tissue of the rat in two groups.Additionally,twenty-four rats underwent vaginal smear cytology were divided into four groups by estrous cycle phase:proestrus,estrus,metestrus and diestrus.RT-qPCR was used to detect the expression level of Plet1 mRNA in ovarian tissue of the rats in various groups,and immunohistochemistry(IHC)method was used to detect the location of Plet1 expression in the rat ovarian tissue in various groups.The rat ovarian granulosa cells were transfected and divided into control group,si-Plet1-rat-266 group,si-Plet1-rat-383 group,and si-Plet1-rat-554 group.Cell counting kit-8(CCK-8)method was used to assess the cell proliferation activities of rat ovarian granulosa cells in various groups,and RT-qPCR method was used to detect the expression levels of cyclin-d epend ent kinase 6(CDK6)and P53 mRNA in rat ovarian granulosa cells in various groups.Results:The RT-qPCR results revealed that Plet1 mRNA was expressed in the ovaries of normal rats,while no statistically significant difference was observed across estrous cycle phases(P＞0.05).The immunohistochemistry results showed that the expression of Plet1 protein was mainly localized in ovarian granulosa cells and luteal cells in the rat ovarian tissue.Compared with control group,the expression levels of Plet1 mRNA and protein in ovarian tissue of the rats in PCOS group were significantly decreased(P＜0.05).The RT-qPCR results showed that compared with control group,the expression level of Plet1 mRNA in ovarian granulosa cells in si-Plet1-rat-383 group was decreased(P＜0.01),exhibiting the most pronounced reduction.Compared with control group,the proliferation activity of rat ovarian granulosa cells in si-Plet1-rat-383 group was decreased(P＜0.05).Compared with control group,the expression levels of CDK6 and P53 mRNA in rat ovarian granulosa cells in si-Plet1-rat-383 group were significantly decreased(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01).Conclusion:Plet1 protein is predominantly expressed and localized in granulosa cells and luteal cells in normal rat ovarian tissue.Its expression is downregulated in the ovarian tissue of PCOS model rats,and interference with Plet1 gene expression may inhibit the proliferation of rat ovarian granulosa cells.

Rolling manipulation is one of the swing techniques with strong operational skills in massage therapy. This article summarized the biomechanical parameters and mechanism of the massage operation from multiple perspectives, including three-dimensional motion, force trajectory, dynamic parameters, force effect relationship, and mechanism. It is found that the massage operation could exert force in the vertical and horizontal directions of the body surface, and the movement trajectories of the front and back were generally symmetrical. The anterior force was approximately three times the retraction force, and the brachioradialis, pectoralis major, triceps, and deltoids were the main muscles that could exert force during manual manipulation. The method can have effects on hemodynamics, cellular anti-inflammatory effects, and improve the physiological function of tissues and organs. However, there is currently a lack of objective and unified norms and standards for the specific strength, frequency, and specific parameter combinations of massage methods, so the further improvement is still needed.

Objective To investigate the effect and mechanism of miR-155-5p targeting suppressor of cytokine signaling 1(SOCS1)in regulating the Janus kinase 2(JAK2)/signal transducer and activator of transcrip-tion 3(STAT3)signaling pathway in renal injury associated with lupus nephritis(LN).Methods Thirty female MRL-faslpr lupus model mice were randomly divided into five groups(n=6 per group):the model group,the antagomir NC group,the miR-155-5p antagomir group,the miR-155-5p antagomir+shRNA control group,and the miR-155-5p antagomir+SOCS1 shRNA group.The mice were treated with adeno-associated virus vectors carrying miR-155-5p antagomir,antagomir NC,SOCS1 shRNA,or shRNA control.Additionally,six age-matched C57BL/6 mice served as a control group and received an equivalent volume of saline.Serum blood urea nitrogen(BUN)and creatinine(Scr)levels,renal histopathological changes,and the expression levels of miR-155-5p,SOCS1,phosphorylated JAK2(p-JAK2),and phosphorylated STAT3(p-STAT3)in renal tissues were evaluated.Results Compared with the normal group,the model group exhibited significantly elevated levels of BUN,Scr,miR-155-5p,p-JAK2,and p-STAT3 proteins in the kidneys(P<0.01),while the expression level of SOCS1 was markedly reduced(P<0.01).Compared with both the model group and the antagomir NC group,the miR-155-5p antagomir group showed decreased levels of BUN,Scr,miR-155-5p,p-JAK2,and p-STAT3 proteins(P<0.01),along with a significant increase in SOCS1 expression(P<0.01).Similarly,compared with the miR-155-5p antagomir group and the miR-155-5p antagomir+shRNA control group,the miR-155-5p antagomir+SOCS1 shRNA group demon-strated significantly higher levels of BUN,Scr,miR-155-5p,p-JAK2,and p-STAT3 proteins(P<0.01),while SOCS1 expression was notably decreased(P<0.01).Renal pathology analysis revealed that,compared to the normal group,the model group exhibited glomerular atrophy,extensive infiltration of inflammatory cells in the renal tubulointerstitial region,and partial renal tubular necrosis.In contrast,the miR-155-5p antagomir group showed marked improvements in glomerular atrophy,tubular necrosis,and inflammatory cell infiltration compared with the model group and antagomir NC group.Furthermore,compared with the miR-155-5p antagomir group and the miR-155-5p antagomir+shRNA control group,the miR-155-5p antagomir+SOCS1 shRNA group exhibited more severe glomerular atrophy,tubular necrosis,and inflammatory cell infiltration.Conclusion MiR-155-5p exacerbates renal damage in MRL-faslpr lupus model mice by targeting SOCS1,potentially through the activation of the JAK2/STAT3 signaling pathway.

Objective:To investigate the association between social support and subjective and objective cognitive functions among the middle-aged and elderly population in Pingyin County, Jinan City, Shandong Province.Methods:Employing a multi-stage cluster random sampling method, a cross-sectional study was conducted in 2023 by selecting people aged 45-70 years from seven villages in three towns within Pingyin County, Jinan City, as survey respondents. Social Support Rating Scale (SSRS), Subjective Cognitive Decline-Questionnaire 9 (SCD-Q9) and Montreal Cognitive Assessment-Basic (MoCA-B) were used to assess the social support and cognitive status of interviewees, and a self-developed questionnaire was used to collect other basic information. Pearson correlation analysis, multiple linear regression and multifactorial logistic regression were used to explore the relationship between social support and subjective and objective cognitive functions.Results:A total of 1 891 subjects were finally included in the study, with 45.52±6.99 for the SSRS total score, an abnormal rate of 43.68% (826/1 891) for the SCD-Q9 score and an abnormal rate of 60.02% (1 135/1 891) for the MoCA-B score. The SSRS total score, subjective support score, objective support score and support utilization score were negatively correlated with SCD-Q9 scores and positively correlated with MoCA-B scores (all P<0.05). An increase in SSRS total score ( β=-0.034, 95% CI: -0.051--0.017, P<0.001) and objective support score ( β=-0.074, 95% CI: -0.121--0.027, P=0.002) can lower SCD-Q9 scores. Compared to those who had only 1 source of financial support or help with practical problems when experiencing an acute situation, those with 2-4 ( OR=0.53, 95% CI: 0.34-0.82), 5 ( OR=0.46, 95% CI: 0.27-0.79), or 6-7 ( OR=0.42, 95% CI: 0.22-0.81) sources of help were more likely to have normal SCD-Q9 scores. Compared to individuals with ≤2 close friends who provided support and help, those with 3-5 ( OR=0.67, 95% CI: 0.50-0.91) or ≥6 friends ( OR=0.72, 95% CI: 0.54-0.97) were more likely to have normal MoCA-B scores. Moreover, compared to individuals who never participated in group activities, those who actively participated ( OR=0.59, 95% CI: 0.42-0.81) were more likely to have normal MoCA-B scores. Conclusions:Social support has protective effects on subjective and objective cognitive functions, and various social support conditions have different protective effects on subjective and objective cognitive functions among middle-aged and older people. Improving social support conditions for middle-aged and elderly individuals may delay the process of cognitive decline.

Reninoma is a rare renal secretory tumor，prevalent in the young population. This disease is mostly surgically resected，and the use of microwave ablation to treat reninoma in children is scarce. A case of reninoma in a child was reported in this paper. The patient presented with refractory hypertension，hypokalemia，hyperreninemia and hyperaldosteronemia. Enhanced CT and contrast-enhanced ultrasound showed mass in the lower pole of the right kidney，which was considered as reninoma and microwave ablation was performed. The renin concentration decreased to 68.42 pg/ml at 4 hours after surgery. After 1 year of postoperative follow-up，there was no recurrence of hypertension and hypokalemia，and no signs of tumor recurrence were seen on repeated ultrasound examinations.

The objective of this study was to investigate whether Stenotrophomonas maltophilia(S.maltophilia)induces ferroptosis,a form of iron-dependent cell death,leading to an inflamma-tory response in RAW 264.7 macrophages by elevating oxidative stress levels.RAW 264.7 cells were stimulated with varying concentrations of S.maltophilia.The concentrations of TNF-αand IL-1β were quantified using ELISA kits to assess the impact of S.maltophilia on the inflammatory response in RAW 264.7 cells.The activities of glutathione(GSH)and malondialdehyde(MDA)levels were measured using GSH and MDA assay kits to evaluate changes in oxidative stress.West-ern blot analysis was employed to detect the expression levels of COX-2,xCT,GPX4,and other proteins involved in ferroptosis signaling pathways,thereby investigating the effect of S.malto-philia on ferroptosis in RAW 264.7 cells.The results demonstrated that S.maltophilia induced concentration-dependent increases in inflammation and oxidative stress in RAW 264.7 cells,up-regulated the expression of COX-2 protein and down-regulated the expression of xCT and GPX4.Pretreatment with the ROS inhibitor N-acetylcysteine(NAC)significantly mitigated the S.malto-philia-induced oxidative stress and ferroptosis signaling activation,thereby alleviating the inflam-matory response.Furthermore,treatment with the ferroptosis inhibitor Fer-1 directly suppressed the activation of the ferroptosis signaling pathway and reversed the inflammation induced by S.maltophilia.These findings suggest that S.maltophilia triggers inflammation in RAW 264.7 cells by activating the ferroptosis signaling pathway via an increase in oxidative stress levels.
