Objective:
To analyze the epidemiological characteristics and influencing factors of severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome (SFTS) in Zhejiang Province from 2019 to 2023, so as to provide the reference for strengthening SFTS prevention and control.
Methods:
Data on laboratory-confirmed SFTS cases in Zhejiang Province from 2019 to 2023 were collected through the Infectious Disease Reporting Information System of Chinese Disease Prevention and Control Information System. Meteorological data, geographic environment and socioeconomic factors during the same period were collected from the fifth-generation European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts, Geospatial Data Cloud, and Zhejiang Statistical Yearbook, respectively. Descriptive epidemiological methods were used to analyze the epidemiological characteristics of SFTS from 2019 to 2023, and a Bayesian spatio-temporal model was constructed to analyze the influencing factors of SFTS incidence.
Results:
A total of 578 SFTS cases were reported in Zhejiang Province from 2019 to 2023, with an annual average incidence of 0.23/105. The peak period was from May to July, accounting for 52.60%. There were 309 males and 269 females, with a male-to-female ratio of 1.15∶1. The cases were mainly aged 50-<80 years, farmers, and in rural areas, accounting for 82.53%, 77.34%, and 75.43%, respectively. Taizhou City and Shaoxing City reported more SFTS cases, while Shaoxing City and Zhoushan City had higher annual average incidences of SFTS. The Bayesian spatio-temporal interaction model showed good goodness of fit. The results showed that mean temperature (RR=1.626, 95%CI: 1.111-2.378) and mean wind speed (RR=1.814, 95%CI: 1.321-2.492) were positively correlated with SFTS risk, while altitude (RR=0.432, 95%CI: 0.230-0.829) and population density (RR=0.443, 95%CI: 0.207-0.964) were negatively correlated with SFTS risk.
Conclusions
SFTS in Zhejiang Province peaks from May to July. Middle-aged and elderly people and farmers are high-risk populations. Taizhou City, Shaoxing City, and Zhoushan City are high-incidence areas. Mean temperature, mean wind speed, altitude, and population density can all affect the risk of SFTS incidence.

Childhood simple obesity has become a significant public health issue in China. Modern medicine primarily relies on lifestyle interventions and often suffers from poor long-term compliance, while pharmacological options are limited and associated with potential adverse effects. Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) has a long history in the prevention and management of this condition, demonstrating eight distinct advantages, including systematic theoretical foundation, diversified therapeutic approaches, definite therapeutic efficacy, high safety profile, good patient compliance, comprehensive intervention strategies, emphasis on prevention, and stepwise treatment protocols. Additionally, TCM is characterized by six distinctive features: the use of natural medicinal substances, non-invasive external therapies, integration of medicinal dietetics, simple exercise regimens, precise syndrome differentiation, and diverse dosage forms. By combining internal and external treatments, TCM facilitates individualized regimen adjustment and holistic regulation, demonstrating remarkable effects in improving obesity-related metabolic indicators, regulating constitutional imbalance, and promoting healthy behaviors. However, challenges remain, such as inconsistent operational standards, insufficient high-quality clinical evidence, and a gap between basic research and clinical application. Future efforts should focus on accelerating the standardization of TCM diagnosis and treatment, conducting multicenter randomized controlled trials, and fostering interdisciplinary integration, so as to enhance the scientific validity and international recognition of TCM in the prevention and treatment of childhood obesity.

Objective:To study the intellectual development,mental behavior and social adaptability of children with epilepsy,and to analyze the related factors affecting the intellectual development,mental behavior and social adaptability.Methods:A total of 290 children with epilepsy diagnosed and treated in the department of pediatrics at Hebei General Hospital from January 2017 to January 2022 were randomly selected as study subjects.The Gesell Developmental Negotiation Scale or Wechsler Intelligence Scale was used to comprehensively assess their intellectual development,and they were divided into the retarded intellectual development group( n=121) and the control group( n=169) with normal intellectual development,according to the presence or absence of retarded intellectual development. Results:The differences in disease duration,frequency of epilepsy,status epilepticus,and numbers of antiepileptic drugs between the two groups were statistically significant(all P<0.05),while there were no statistically significant differences in age,gender,age at onset,seizure form,interictal epileptiform discharges,history of febrile convulsions,and the time from onset to initial visit( P>0.05).Multifactorial Logistic regression analysis showed that high seizure frequency( OR=0.713, P<0.05),long duration of illness( OR=0.893, P<0.05),and high number of antiepileptic drugs( OR=0.630, P<0.05) were the high-risk factors for the occurrence of retarded intellectual development in children with epilepsy. Conclusion:High frequency of seizures,long duration of the disease and high number of antiepileptic drugs are risk factors for retarded intellectual development in children with epilepsy,and should be prevented and controlled early.Avoidance of multidrug combinations is one of the currently modifiable factors.

Acute kidney injury(AKI)is a clinical syndrome characterized by a rapid decline in renal function within a short period.Its pathogenesis involves multiple processes,including oxidative stress,inflammatory responses,and programmed cell death,while effective pharmacological interventions remain lacking.Current studies have indicated that asiaticoside,a natural active compound,exhibits nephroprotective potential in the intervention of AKI.The potential mechanisms include the activation of antioxidant signaling such as nuclear factor-erythroid 2-related factor 2/heme oxygenase-1 to mitigate oxidative injury,the regulation of key inflammatory pathways including nuclear factor-κB/NOD-like receptor thermal protein domain associated protein 3,and Janus kinase 2/signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 to suppress inflammation and modulate macrophage polarization;it promotes mitophagy by influencing the expression of apoptosis-related proteins and activating the recombinant sirtuin 1-forkhead box-O3-phosphatase and tensin homolog-induced kinase 1-Parkin pathway so as to maintain cellular homeostasis.As a multi-target natural compound,asiaticoside holds promise for providing novel intervention strategies in the clinical treatment of AKI,yet its efficacy and safety still require validation through large-sample clinical trials.

Salmonella,an important foodborne pathogen,is responsible for numerous diseases in both humans and animals.We conducted a genome-wide analysis of Salmonella isolates from diarrheal and foodborne infection cases in Gansu Province between 2021 and 2023.A total of 163 Salmonella strains were collected and subjected to biochemical identification,followed by serological typing,whole-genome sequencing,and bioinformatics characterization.The results revealed 27 distinct serotypes,among which Sal-monella typhimurium variant(S.4,[5],12∶1∶-),Salmonella enteritidis,and Salmonella enterica London were predominant.Notably,the serotype distribution exhibited significant variation across sample sources.Multilocus sequence typing(MLST)classified the iso-lates into 27 sequence types(STs),among which ST34,ST11,ST155,and ST19 had the highest prevalence.The MLST profiles dem-onstrated strong concordance with serological classifications.For Salmonella,we detected a total of 17 673 virulence genes in 374 cat-egories,carrying multiple virulence islands.Some strains carried virulence plasmid genes,among which 45 strains of Salmonella enter-itidis had higher types and numbers of virulence factors detected than other serotypes of Salmonella.Antimicrobial resistance profiling identified 69 resistance genes conferring resistance to 13 classes of antimicrobial agents,and multidrug resistance patterns were preva-lent among isolates.Plasmid characterization revealed 35 plasmid types,some containing antimicrobial resistance determinants.Addi-tionally,three disinfectant resistance genes were identified.This study highlights the extensive diversity of Salmonella serotypes and STs in Gansu Province and the complex repertoire of virulence and resistance genes.The emergence of disinfectant resistance genes un-derscores challenges in conventional disinfection protocols.These findings provide critical insights for refining Salmonella surveillance and control strategies in public health and food safety contexts.
