Abstract The prevention and control of myopia in Chinese children and adolescents has become a major public health issue. While maintaining increased outdoor activity as a cornerstone intervention, there is an urgent need to explore new complementary approaches that can be effectively implemented in both indoor and outdoor settings. In recent years, environmental spatial frequency has gained increasing attention as one of the key environmental factors influencing the development and progression of myopia. Both animal studies and human research have confirmed that indoor environments lacking mid to high spatial frequency components, often characterized as "visually impoverished", can promote axial elongation and myopia through mechanisms such as disruption of retinal neural signaling, impaired accommodative function, and altered expression of related molecules. Based on the scientific consensus, it is recommended that "enriching of environmental spatial frequency" should be integrated into the myopia prevention and control framework. Following the principles of schoolled organization, family cooperation, community involvement, and student participation, specific measures are put forward in three areas：optimizing school visual settings, improving home spatial environments, and promoting healthy visual behavior. The aim is to create "visually friendly" indoor environments as an important supplement to outdoor activity, thereby providing a novel perspective and strategy for comprehensively advancing myopia prevention and control among children and adolescents.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the public health governance capacity in Jiangsu Province and provide an optimized pathway for the construction of a “strong, rich, beautiful, and high-quality” new Jiangsu. MethodsA total of 806 policy documents, 658 public information reports, and 148 research literatures related to public health governance capacity in Jiangsu Province from January 1995 to December 2023 were collected. The status of current public health goverance was assessed based on the evaluation criteria suitable for public health systems, and the strengths and the weaknesses of the system were identified. ResultsThe public health governance capability of Jiangsu Province was scored at 738.3 points, ranking 3rd nationally. Maternal health care and emergency response capacities achieved leading positions nationwide, both ranking 2nd. Jiangsu had exhibited a standardized guidance in the strategic level, a well-established management mechanism, an extensive coverage in information collection, and a scientifically established health targets setting. However, bottlenecks remained, including an unclear division of responsibilities across organizational departments, an insufficient public-health workforce, the absence of a stable growth mechanism for government funding investment, and difficulties in promptly identifying public needs. ConclusionJiangsu’s public-health system demonstrates leading nationally, yet several components remain underdeveloped. Future efforts should consolidate advantages while addressing weaknesses, further diversify content and forms, establish a stable funding increase mechanism, and clarify departmental functions, thereby providing solid health support for realizing the developmental goals of a “strong, rich, beautiful and high-quality” new Jiangsu.

ObjectiveTo systematically assess the public health governance capacity in Zhejiang Province, to conduct an in-depth analysis of its strengths and weaknesses, so as to provide scientific basis and strategic recommendations for further enhancement. MethodsA systematic collection of policy documents, public information reports, and research literature related to public health governance capacity in Zhejiang Province from 2002 to 2023 was conducted (encompassing a total of 1 263 policy documents, 138 pieces of information reports and 631 research articles). Based on the evaluation criteria suitable for public health systems previously developed by the research team, the basic status and magnitude of change in public health governance capacity in Zhejiang Province was evaluated. Additionally, normative gap analyses were employed to identify the strengths and weaknesses. ResultsZhejiang Province ranked 4th nationwide in terms of public health governance capacity with a score of 733.4 points (1 000.0-point maximum). The province has effectively implemented the principle of health first (scoring 698.5 points in the assessment of health-first strategy implementation) and attached sufficient importance to health-related goals (scoring 658.2 points in the scientific rationality of goal setting). However, the implementation of inter-departmental coordination and incentive mechanisms only scored 178.7 points, the feasibility of management and monitoring mechanisms scored even lower at only 144.0 points, and the coverage of incentive mechanisms scored 286.0 points. ConclusionZhejiang Province has effectively implemented its health first strategy and attached great importance to health targets, but still needs to strengthen cross-departmental coordination mechanisms and health-oriented incentives.

Background The quality of occupational health technical services is directly linked to the protection of workers' health rights and the efficacy of occupational disease prevention and control. However, the industry still faces critical challenges: sporadic instances of institutional non-compliance and persistent irregularities in professional practice continue to undermine overall service performance. Objective To assess the current quality status of occupational health technical services in Zhejiang Province and propose countermeasures for quality improvement, providing a scientific basis for policy optimization and service delivery quality enhancement. Methods A total of 69 occupational health technical service institutions in Zhejiang Province that obtained formal accreditation as of April 30, 2024, were sampled, including 3 public institutions and 66 private institutions (comprising 3 formerly Class-A, 28 formerly Class-B, 11 formerly Class-C, and 24 newly certified institutions). Following the Technical Protocol for Quality Monitoring of Occupational Health Technical Service in Zhejiang Province and the Technical Protocol for Proficiency Testing of Occupational Health Detection in Zhejiang Province, a quality assessment task force comprising national and provincial experts was established. Evaluation was conducted across four dimensions: qualification maintenance and compliance, standardization of technical services, authenticity of technical services, and proficiency testing, utilizing a combination of document review, on-site inspections, and technical skill assessments. Results The occupational health technical service institutions in Zhejiang Province were predominantly private entities (82.5%), with significant disparities in overall service quality. The pass rates for qualification maintenance and compliance, technical service standardization, technical service authenticity, and the excellence rate for laboratory proficiency testing were 81.5%, 80.7%, 97.3%, and 90.4%, respectively. Regarding qualification maintenance, the pass rates for "environmental conditions" (49.8%, 56.7%) and "instrumentation and equipment" (58.2%、65.6%) were significantly lower for formerly Class-C and newly certified institutions compared to other categories. In terms of technical standardization, "standardized on-site inspections" recorded the lowest pass rate (67.4%), with newly certified institutions at only 48.0%. Regarding technical service authenticity, formerly Class-C institutions exhibited issues such as missing raw chromatograms for blank samples (85.7% pass rate). In laboratory proficiency testing, public and formerly Class-A institutions achieved 100% excellence rates, but the performance of formerly Class-C and newly certified institutions was comparatively weak; specifically, the failure rate for organic analysis in formerly Class-C institutions reached 20%; the failure rate for dust testing items in newly certified institutions was 10.3%. Conclusion The overall quality of occupational health technical services in Zhejiang Province still requires significant improvement, particularly in basic institutional conditions, the standardization of on-site inspections, and laboratory proficiency in organic and dust analysis. Formerly Class-C and newly certified institutions should be the primary focus of quality management efforts. Differentiated regulatory strategies are recommended, alongside strengthening interim and ex-post supervision to gradually enhance the quality of occupational health technical services across all institutions.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the neuroprotective effect and mechanism of eleutheroside B （ELB） on Parkinson’s disease （PD） model mice by regulating the IκB kinase β （IKKβ）/nuclear factor-κB （NF-κB） signaling pathway. METHODS Fifty mice were randomly divided into normal control group， model group， positive control group （selegiline hydrochloride， 10 mg/kg）， and ELB low-dose and high-dose groups （80， 160 mg/kg）， with 10 mice in each group. Each group was given relevant medicine or normal saline intragastrically for 14 consecutive days. Starting from the 10th day of administration， the model group and all administration groups were intraperitoneally injected with 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1，2，3，6-tetrahydropyridine （MPTP） 30 mg/kg， for five consecutive days to establish the chronic PD model. After the last administration for 24 h， six mice were randomly selected from each group to test their behavioral abilities； detect the levels of interleukin-1β （IL-1β）， IL-10， tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α） in brain tissue and their mRNA expressions were measured， and positive expression of tyrosine hydroxylase （TH）， protein expressions of TH， α -synuclein （ α -syn）， ionized calcium-binding adaptor molecule 1 （Iba-1）， as well as phosphorylation levels of IKKβ and NF-κB p65 proteins in the brain tissue were detected. The ultrastructure of neurons in substantia nigra was observed. RESULTS Compared with the model group， rotarod endurance time and climbing score of each administration group （except for the ELB low-dose group） were increased significantly （ P ＜0.05）， while the levels and mRNA expressions of IL-1β， TNF-α， α -syn， and Iba-1， as well as phosphorylation levels of IKKβ and NF-κB p65 proteins in brain tissue were decreased significantly （except for TNF-α in the ELB low-dose group）. Conversely， the level and mRNA expression of IL-10 （except for the ELB low-dose group）， TH positive expression and protein expressions were significantly increased （ P ＜0.05）. Typical neurodegenerative pathological changes， such as neuronal karyopyknosis， mitochondrial swelling and vacuolization， and endoplasmic reticulum dilation， all showed varying degrees of improvement. CONCLUSIONS ELB may exert neuroprotective effects by inhibiting the activation of the IKKβ/NF-κB signaling pathway， alleviating inflammatory responses， reducing abnormal α -syn aggregation and neuronal loss， and further improving motor dysfunction in PD mice.

Indobufen is a new generation of antiplatelet agents and has been shown to have antithrombotic effects in animal models. However, its therapeutic potential and mechanisms against cerebral ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury remain unclear. In this study, we evaluated the in vivo neuroprotective effects of indobufen through both pretreatment and posttreatment regimens in a rat model of middle cerebral artery occlusion/reperfusion (MCAO/R). In vitro, human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) subjected to oxygen-glucose deprivation/reoxygenation (OGD/R) were employed to investigate the relationship between indobufen and the pyroptosis-associated NF-κB/Caspase-1/GSDMD pathway. The pharmacodynamic tests revealed that indobufen ameliorated I/R injury by decreasing the level of thromboxane B2 (TXB2), infarct size, brain edema and neurological impairment in rats and rescuing cell pyroptosis in HUVECs. The underlying mechanisms were probably related to pyroptosis suppression by regulating the NF-κB/Caspase-1/GSDMD pathway. Overall, these studies indicate that indobufen exerts protective and therapeutic effects against I/R injury by pyroptosis suppression via downregulating NF-κB/Caspase-1/GSDMD pathway.

Objective:To investigate whether hysteroscopic transcervical resection of septum (TCRS) prior to in vitro fertilization/intracytoplasmic sperm injection (IVF/ICSI) can improve cumulative live birth rates in patients with uterine septum. Methods:A retrospective cohort study was conducted to analyze data from 244 patients with partial uterine septum who underwent IVF/ICSI at the Reproductive Medicine Center of the Third Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University between January 2016 and August 2022. The patients were divided into a surgical group ( n=171) and a non-surgical group ( n=73) based on whether TCRS was performed prior to IVF/ICSI. The clinical outcomes of IVF/ICSI in the two groups were analyzed, with the primary observation indicator being the cumulative live birth rate. Cox regression analysis was employed to identify determinants. Results:The age of patients in the operated group [(31.20±3.80) years] was younger than that in the non-operated group [(32.92±5.34) years, P=0.005], and the basal antral follicle count [17.0 (11.0, 24.0)] was higher than that in the non-operated group [14.0 (8.0, 21.5), P=0.039]. There were no significant differences in other baseline data (all P>0.05). The cumulative pregnancy rate [79.53% (136/171)] and the cumulative live birth rate [60.23% (103/171)] in the operated group during the 24-month follow-up period were significantly higher than those in the non-operated group [65.75% (48/73), P=0.022; 45.21% (33/73), P=0.030]. Compared with the operated group [296.0 (260.0, 430.0) d], the duration from the start of ovarian stimulation to the first live birth was significantly prolonged in the non-operated group [379.0 (329.5, 471.5) d, P<0.001]. Adjusted Cox-regression analysis showed that whether or not surgery was performed ( HR=1.683, 95% CI: 1.116-2.539, P=0.013) and the basal antral follicle count ( HR=1.032, 95% CI: 1.000-1.065, P=0.048) were independent factors affecting cumulative live birth rate. Conclusion:Performing TCRS before IVF/ICSI can improve cumulative live birth rates of patients with uterine septum.

Objective This study aims to analyze the factors influencing per capita current health expenditure in Guizhou Province from 2016 to 2022 using the gray correlation analysis method.Methods Based on the"SHA2011"accounting results of current health expenditure in Guizhou Province,as well as data from the"Guizhou Statistical Yearbook"and"Guizhou Health Statistical Yearbook",the gray correlation analysis method was used to analyze the factors influencing per capita current health expenditure in Guizhou Province from 2016 to 2022.Results The factors with the highest correlation to per capita current health expenditure in Guizhou Province were health expenditure(0.829),followed by the number of health technical personnel per thousand people(0.715),the number of practicing(assistant)physicians per thousand people(0.705),and per capita GDP(0.704).The factor with the lowest correlation was the proportion of the tertiary industry to GDP(0.543).Conclusion Health expenditure investment has the strongest correlation with per capita current health expenditure in Guizhou Province.Health re-source investment and health service capacity are the main influencing factors of per capita current health expenditure in Guizhou Province.At the same time,the impact of economic and social factors on current health expenditure should be fully recognized.

Objective This study aims to explore the impact of esketamine combined with hip pericapsular nerve block on perioperative stress reactions,immune function,cognitive function,and postoperative analgesic efficacy in elderly patients undergoing total hip replacement.Methods From February 2022 to February 2025,110 elderly patients who received total hip arthroplasty in the hospital were enrolled as the research participants.They were allocated into a control group and an observation group by means of a random number table,with 55 cases in each group.All patients received total hip arthroplasty.Patients in the control group were given 20 mL of ropivacaine combined with pericapsular nerve block anesthesia of the hip joint,while those in the observation group were given esketamine combined with pericapsular nerve block anesthesia of the hip joint.The blood pres-sure,heart rate(HR),oxygen saturation(SpO?),and respiratory rate(RR)of the two groups were compared at admission(T1),immediately after anesthesia(T2),skin incision(T3),30 minutes after surgery initiation(T4),incision suture(T5),and immediately after surgery completion(T6).Both groups underwent detection,assess-ment,and comparison of immune function indices,serum stress markers,and cognitive function scores before the operation and 3 days post-surgery.The Visual Analogue Scale(VAS)pain scores at 3,6,and 9 hours after surgery were contrasted between the two groups.Additionally,statistical analysis was performed on the incidence of adverse reactions in both groups.Results The HR,mean arterial pressure(MAP),SpO?,RR,and bispectral index(BIS)of the two groups from T1 to T6 were compared using repeated measures analysis of variance.The results showed that:(1)There were statistically significant differences in HR,MAP,SpO?,and BIS at different time points(F=118.378,70.002,44.910,242.439,all P<0.001).(2)There were statistically significant differences in HR,MAP,SpO?,and BIS between the observation group and the control group(F=206.643,195.586,93.077,3.953,P<0.001,P<0.001,P<0.001,P=0.049).(3)There were statistically significant differences in the changing trends of HR,MAP,SpO?,RR,and BIS between the two groups(F=18.583,14.158,23.350,4.883,6.698,all P<0.001).At 3 days after surgery,the levels of CD4? and CD4?/CD8? in the observation group were lower than those in the control group(P<0.05).The levels of malondialdehyde(MDA),superoxide dismutase(SOD),and cortisol in the observation group were lower than those in the control group during surgery and immediately after surgery(P<0.05).The Montreal Cognitive Assessment(MoCA)scores and Mini-Mental State Examination(MMSE)scores of both groups decreased 3 days after surgery,and those in the observation group were higher than those in the control group(P<0.05).The VAS pain scores of the observation group at 3,6,9 and 12 hours after surgery were lower than those of the control group.The incidence of adverse reactions in the observation group was lower than that in the control group(12.73%vs.29.09%,P<0.05).Conclusion Esketamine combined with pericapsular nerve block of the hip joint can significantly inhibit the perioperative stress response in elderly patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty,optimize the postoperative anal-gesic effect,and reduce the incidence of adverse reactions.

To explore an effective health management model for obese students,a comprehensive intervention was carried out for obese students with cardiovascular and metabolic risks,and the effectiveness of this intervention model was evaluated.From Jan to Apr 2024(excluding the winter vacation),300 students were selected from 6 primary schools in Qibao Community,Minhang District,Shanghai,to participate in the study(28 students dropped out during the study period).The study subjects were divided into two intervention groups(pilot intervention group:equipped with a health vice principal;general intervention group:not equipped with a health vice principal)and a control group.The intervention group received comprehensive intervention measures such as science popularization,diet,exercise and psychology,while the control group received daily health management.The post-intervention results showed that the intervention group had significant improvements in healthy diet,scientific exercise and positive psychology,with significant differences compared to the control group(P<0.05).At the same time,the intervention group had a reduced detection rate of obesity(BMI≥P95),and a decreased detection rate of abnormal metabolic indicators such as blood pressure,fasting blood glucose and triglyceride,especially significant differences in fasting blood glucose and triglyceride compared with the control group(P<0.001).In addition,the pilot intervention group under the operation of health vice principal showed better effects in changing healthy behaviors and improving some metabolic indicators compared with the general intervention group.The implementation of this project provided a scientific basis for the promotion of a comprehensive intervention model for student health under the oprtation of health vice principle.
