Objective To analyze the effect of releasing the lower pulmonary ligament on right residual lung expansion after right upper lobe resection under different body mass index (BMI) levels. Methods The clinical data of patients who underwent thoracoscopic right upper lobe resection in the First Affiliated Hospital with Nanjing Medical University from 2021 to 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. Patients were divided into a group A (17 kg/m2＜BMI≤23 kg/m2), a group B (23 kg/m2＜BMI≤29 kg/m2) and a group C (BMI＞29 kg/m2) according to BMI. The presence of residual cavity was judged by chest X-ray at 7-10 days after operation, the degree of compensation change of the right main bronchus angle was measured, and the changes in lung volume were determined by CT three-dimensional reconstruction. Results A total of 157 patients who underwent thoracoscopic right upper lobe resection were included, including 71 males and 86 females, with an average age of (59.7±11.2) years. There were 50 patients in the group A, 75 patients in the group B, and 32 patients in the group C. In the group A, compared with those without releasing the lower pulmonary ligament, patients with releasing had a lower incidence of postoperative residual cavity (P=0.016), greater changes in bronchus angle (P<0.001), and smaller changes in lung volume (P<0.001). In the group B and C, there was no significant effect of releasing the lower pulmonary ligament on postoperative residual cavity, bronchus angle, and lung volume changes (P>0.05). Conclusion For patients with thin and long body shape and low BMI, releasing the lower pulmonary ligament is helpful to promote the expansion of the residual lung after right upper lobe resection and reduce the occurrence of postoperative residual cavity in patients.

Objective To gain insights into the biological characteristics of different populations of Culex tritaeniorhynchus within and around the Yellow Sea wetland from the perspective of the occurrence of resistance, we investigated the levels of resistance to deltamethrin and kdr gene mutation in the wetland and its peripheral areas. Methods Specimens were collected from Cx. tritaeniorhynchus populations at two monitoring sites in the Rare Bird National Nature Reserve and Tiaozi Ni Wetland Scenic Area, and also from two populations in Yancheng City and the Liuhe District of Nanjing, and the resistance of these mosquitoes to deltamethrin was determined using the CDC biotest bottle method. For each concentration of deltamethrin assessed, a random subset of exposed specimens was selected for amplification of the kdr gene fragment, followed by Sanger sequencing to identify and analyze resistance-associated mutations. Results The LC50 levels of deltamethrin among mosquitoes from the four populations in Luhe, Yancheng, the Rare Bird National Nature Reserve and the Tiaozi Ni Wetland Scenic Area were 2.048 5, 7.798 2, 3.473 3, and 17.695 5 mg/mL, respectively, with corresponding concentrations of deltamethrin ranging from 0.005 to 5.000,0.050 to 50.000,0.050 to 25.000 and 0.050 to 50.000 mg/mL, respectively. Furthermore, the ranges of the KT50 values were 11.76-107.43, 67.05-216.30,29.77-107.43 and 28.40-329.51 min; the 1-h knockdown rates were 34.58%-99.15%, 9.52%-43.80%, 55.09%-73.01%, and 10.09%-68.07%; and the 24-h mortality rates were 12.15%-67.52%,9.52%-79.56%,13.17%-82.21%, and 11.01%-78.99%, respectively. With respect to kdr gene mutation, we assayed a total of 63,70,59, and 57 mosquitoes for the four populations, for which we detected L1014F mutation frequencies of 14.29%, 35.00%, 20.34%, and 31.58%, respectively, with a majority of these mutations being heterozygous for resistance. In addition, five adult mosquitoes were identified has having synonymous mutations at site 1011[i. e. , AAT(asparagine)mutation to AAC(asparagine)]. Conclusions Our findings revealed the clear resistance of Cx. tritaeniorhynchus to deltamethrin in the Yancheng region of the Yellow Sea wetland, and the resistance phenotype and kdr frequency of Cx. tritaeniorhynchus in the wetland environment were comparable to those of Cx. tritaeniorhynchus in the wetland environment, thereby indicating that the resistance of different populations of Cx. tritaeniorhynchus was homogeneous under the pressure of different insecticide selection within and around the wetland. However, the underlying mechanisms need to be further studied.

Objective To develop a scientific,systematic,and operable healthcare quality evaluation system for Nation-al Regional Medical Centers(NRMCs),providing a theoretical basis and practical tool for objectively assessing their construction outcomes and guiding high-quality development.Methods Based on the classic"Structure-Process-Outcome"(SPO)quality management model,and aligned with national policy directives and the functional positioning of regional medical centers,a pre-liminary set of evaluation indicators was screened and an indicator system was constructed through literature review,policy analy-sis,and field investigations.Guangxi Hospital Division of The First Affiliated Hospital,Sun Yat-sen University was selected as the study subject,and cross-sectional data from March 2023 to June 2025 were collected for empirical application.Results A healthcare quality evaluation system for NRMCs was established,comprising 3 first-level dimensions(Structure Quality,Process Quality,Outcome Quality),10 second-level indicators,and 66 third-level indicators.This system covers multiple aspects,inclu-ding resource allocation,healthcare service efficiency,clinical practices,patient outcomes,and social benefits.Empirical results indicated that the center demonstrated a consistent upward trend in key indicators such as"Proportion of Discharged Patients Un-dergoing Level-4 Surgeries"(O1.2)and"DRG-CMI Value"(O2.1),while"Average Length of Hospital Stay"(P3.1)and"Cost Consumption Index"(O2.3)showed a steady decline.The indicator system effectively revealed the center's progress in en-hancing regional influence and operational efficiency.Conclusion The developed healthcare quality evaluation system is well-grounded in theory and practice,combining scientific rigor with policy relevance,and can serve as a decision-support tool for quality assessment and improvement in National Regional Medical Centers.

Objective:To describe the epidemiological characteristics and changes of febrile seizure(FS)among children under 6 years old in Ningbo City,Zhejiang Province from 2015 to 2021.Methods:Based on the Ningbo Regional Health Information Platform,a dynamic cohort was established using vacci-nation registration information,and the cases of FS were identified by the diagnostic results of Chinese terms or International Classification of Diseases 10th revision(ICD-10)R56.0 code in the electronic medical records.The first visit of FS during the observation period was defined as a new case,and a re-currence case was defined as the case with a visit interval of more than 7 days.The 95％confidence in-terval(CI)of FS incidence density was calculated by the Poisson distribution.Results:From January 2015 to June 2020,there were 1.3 million children under 6 years old in Ningbo,with male accounting for 52.87％.The median follow-up time was 2.83(1.55-4.00)years.During the follow-up period,12 776 new onset cases had FS,with more males than females,with an overall incidence density of 4.34(95％CI:4.27-4.40)/1 000 person-years and a recurrence rate of 21.63％.There was a higher inci-dence density in children who were male,born in Ningbo and of non-mobility.The incidence density of FS was higher in urban areas than in rural and rural-urban fringe areas,and the incidence density was different among districts and counties.The peak density was found in children aged 18-23 months[8.42(95％CI:8.11-8.74)/1 000 person-years].From 2015 to 2019,the incidence density in-creased with calendar year(Ptrend＜0.001),and the highest was 5.62(95％CI:5.43-5.81)/1 000 person-years.The incidence density of FS decreased significantly during the period between 2020 and 2021.The incidence density was higher in winter.Conclusion:From 2015 to 2019,the overall inci-dence density of FS in children under 6 years old in Ningbo City presented an increasing trend.More at-tention should be paid to the health education,the improvement of the health maintenance model,the en-hancement of the cognition of FS,the identification and treatment of FS among high-risk population and regions so as to prevent its recurrence and reduce the disease burden during the corona virus disease 2019(COVID-19)epide-mic.

Objective To explore the protective effect and mechanism of miR-202-5p on acute respiratory distress syndrome(ARDS)-induced lung injury in neonatal rats.Methods Sixty newborn SD rats were randomly divided into six groups:the control group(intraperi-toneal injection of normal saline by tail vein),ARDS group(ARDS model established via intraperitoneal injection of 4 mg/kg lipopolysac-charide by tail vein),ARDS+miR-NC group(ARDS rats receiving 2 mg/kg miR-NC via tail vein injection once every 4 h,with intervention for 12 h),ARDS+miR-202-5p group(ARDS rats receiving 2 mg/kg miR-202-5p via tail vein injection once every 4 h,with intervention for 12 h),ARDS+miR-202-5p+ov-NC group,and ARDS+miR-202-5p+ov-ROCK1 group(ARDS rats receiving 2 mg/kg miR-202-5p once every 4 h,with intervention for 12 h;with 6 × 108 plaque-forming units control or overexpression ROCK adenovirus administered via tail vein 3 days before lipopolysaccharide injection).Real-time quantitative PCR was employed to measure miR-202-5p and ROCK1 mRNA expression in rat lung tissue.Hematoxylin and eosin staining was performed to assess pathological lung injury.The lung tissue wet-to-dry weight ratio was determined to evaluate pulmonary edema.Western blotting was utilized to analyze ROCK1,Toll-like receptor 4(TLR4),phosphorylated-nuclear factor κB(p-NF-κB)p65,and phosphorylated-inhibitor of nuclear factor-κBα(p-IκBα)protein expression in lung tissue.The interaction between miR-202-5p and ROCK1 was validated using dual-luciferase reporter gene experiments.Results miR-202-5p expression was significantly down-regulated in ARDS rat lung tissue,while overexpression of miR-202-5p ameliorated pathological injury and pulmonary edema in ARDS rats.ROCK1 mRNA was upregulated in ARDS rat lung tissue;however,overexpression of miR-202-5p decreased the expression of ROCK1 in lung tissue of ARDS rats,while overexpression of ROCK1 reversed the protective effect of overexpression of miR-202-5p on lung injury in ARDS rats.Furthermore,miR-202-5p overexpression suppressed TLR4,p-NF-κB p65,and p-IκBα protein expression in ARDS rat lung tissue,an effect that was reversed by ROCK1 overexpression.Dual-luciferase reporter gene experiments confirmed that miR-202-5p directly targets ROCK1 mRNA 3'UTR.Conclusion miR-202-5p ameliorates ARDS-in-duced lung injury in neonatal rats through targeted suppression of ROCK1 expression,with the underlying mechanism potentially involving inhibition of ROCK1-mediated TLR4/NF-κB signaling pathway activation.

Objective To establish mouse models exposed to different doses of neodymium oxide via tracheal instillation,and to investigate the mechanisms underlying brain tissue damage induced by neodymium oxide exposure in mice.Methods Forty-eight male C57/BL6 mice were randomly assigned to four groups:the control group,the low-dose group,the medium-dose group,and the high-dose group.The low-dose,medium-dose,and high-dose groups received 62.5 mg/mL,125 mg/mL,and 250 mg/mL neodymium oxide,respectively,via non-exposed tracheal instillation.The control group received an equivalent volume of saline using the same administration method.After 35 days,the mice were euthanized,and brain tissues were collected.RT-PCR was used to assess the mRNA expression changes of Claudin-5 and Occludin.Western blot analysis was performed to evaluate the expression changes of Claudin-5 and Occludin tight junction proteins,as well as the expression changes of MMP-2 and MMP-9 in the brain tissues.Additionally,the expression of the RhoA/ROCK2 signaling pathway and downstream cofilin protein was examined.Changes in oxidative stress markers,including MDA,T-AOC,and NO,were measured using a kit method.Results The mRNA expression of Claudin-5 was significantly reduced in the middle-dose and high-dose groups compared to the control group(P<0.05).Similarly,the mRNA expression of Occludin was significantly lower in the low-dose,medium-dose,and high-dose groups compared to the control group(P<0.05).Additionally,the protein expression of Claudin-5,MMP-2,and Occludin was significantly decreased in the low-dose,medium-dose,and high-dose groups compared to the control group(P<0.05).The protein expression of MMP-9 and RhoA was also signifi-cantly lower in the medium-dose and high-dose groups compared to the control group(P<0.05).Furthermore,the protein expression of ROCK2 and p-cofilin in the high-dose group was significantly lower than that in the control group(P<0.05).The content of MDA and T-AOC was significantly lower in the medium-dose and high-dose groups compared to the control group(P<0.05),and the content of NO in the high-dose group was significantly lower than that in the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion Exposure to neodymium oxide results in increased permeability of the blood-brain barrier in mice,leading to oxidative stress,inflammatory responses,and activation of the RhoA/ROCK2 signaling pathway.

Medical therapy and surgical intervention are the two primary approaches for treating myocardial bridge.However,there remains controversy regarding the use of coronary artery bypass grafting(CABG)and myocardial bridge unroofing.Here,we report a case of myocardial infarction following CABG in a patient with a myocardial bridge.The patient was admitted to Lanzhou First Peopie's Hospital with persistent chest pain,chest tightness,and shortness of breath lasting 2 hours.Physical examination revealed no significant abnormalities.Electrocardiography(ECG)indicated extensive anterior wall myocardial infarction.Laboratory findings showed myoglobin levels of 140.1 ng/ml and troponin Ⅰ levels of 2.59 ng/ml,with no other significant abnormalities.The initial diagnosis was acute extensive anterior wall myocardial infarction.Emergency coronary angiography revealed a myocardial bridge in the mid-segment of the left anterior descending artery(LAD).Emergency CABG using the left internal mammary artery to the LAD was performed,leading to symptomatic improvement,and the patient was discharged in stable condition.However,the patient experienced a recurrent myocardial infarction seven years post-surgery and received secondary preventive medical therapy.The patient is currently under ongoing follow-up care.CABG is an effective treatment for myocardial bridge.However,based on the case reported in this study,we recommend careful evaluation of whether a patient may benefit from CABG.

Objective:To survey the relationship among parents'rearing style,family conformity and obsess-ive-compulsive symptoms in patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder(OCD).Methods:Totally 216 patients di-agnosed with OCD were recruited(59 cases of mild obsessive-compulsive symptoms,121 cases of moderate obsess-ive-compulsive symptoms,36 cases of severe obsessive-compulsive symptoms).They were assessed with the Yale-Brown Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder Scale(Y-BOCS),Egma Minnen av Bardndosna Uppforstran(EMBU),and Family Accommodation Scale for Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder-Patient Version(FAS-PV).Results:The severe obsessive-compulsive symptom group had the lowest positive parenting style scores.Conversely,they had the high-est negative parental rearing scores and total FAS-PV scores(Ps＜0.01).The ordered logistic regression results showed that male patients had less severe obsessive-compulsive symptoms(OR=0.22).Patients with lower years of education(OR=0.87)and positive parental rearing scores(OR=0.98,0.97)had more severe obsessive-com-pulsive symptoms.Conversely,higher negative paternal rearing scores(OR=1.02)and total FAS-PV scores(OR=1.04)were associated with more severe obsessive-compulsive symptoms.Conclusion:This study suggests that the severity of obsessive-compulsive symptoms is related to parental rearing style and family accommodation.Patients with severe obsessive-compulsive symptoms are more likely to feel negative paternal rearing style and higher level of family compliance,and less likely to feel positive parental rearing style.

Objective To evaluate the safety and efficacy of valve-in-valve transcatheter mitral valve replacement(ViV-TMVR)in patients with bioprosthetic valve degeneration who are at high surgical risk.Methods This study is a multi-center,retrospective cohort analysis of 20 consecutive patients who underwent transseptal ViV-TMVR using the Edwards SAPIEN 3 transcatheter heart valve(THV).The primary endpoints include technical success and procedural success,both defined according to the Mitral Valve Academic Research Consortium(MVARC)criteria,as well as mortality and functional change assessed based on New York Heart Association(NYHA)classification at 30-days and six months post-procedure.Clinical follow-up assessments are conducted at 30-days and six months.Results From February 2021 to October 2022,a total of 20 patients with symptoms of bioprosthetic valve degeneration were enrolled across nine sites in China.The patients had a mean age of(73.5±5.5)years,with 85.0％being females and 70.0％classified as NYHA class Ⅲ/Ⅳ.The study achieved a 100.0％technical success rate and a 90.0％procedural success rate finally.All patients remained alive during the 30-day follow-up period.However,six months post-intervention,two patients(10.0％)were re-hospitalized due to heart failure,and sadly,one of them(5.0％)died.None of the patients reported any adverse events related to ViV-TMVR during the follow-up period.Notably,there was a significant improvement in NYHA class compared to baseline(P=0.0004)at six-month follow-ups.Conclusions The transseptal ViV-TMVR technique proved to be highly successful and was associated with significant improvement in NYHA class function.These findings strongly suggest that it serves as a safe and efficient treatment alternative for high-risk patients suffering from bioprosthetic valve degeneration.
