Objective This study conducted molecular biological identification of the viruses carried by Culex pipiens pallens specimens collected in Shunyi District, Beijing in 2023, and observed the changes in the infection rate of the viruses carried by Cx. pipiens pallens at different collection times. Methods Cx. pipiens pallens were collected using carbon dioxide mosquito traps. The mosquito samples were ground in batches and analyzed by molecular biology technologies. The virus infection rate at different collection times was analyzed statistically. Results 17 strains of Culex pipiens pallens densovirus(CppDNV)were identified from Cx. pipiens pallens samples collected in Shunyi District, Beijing, in 2023. The nucleotide sequence analysis of the virus genome coding region showed that CppDNV was a single-stranded DNA virus with a total length of 3 335 nt, encoding 2 non-structural proteins(NS1, NS2)and 1 capsid protein(VP). The nucleotide(amino acid)sequence lengths of the three proteins were 2 376 nt(791 aa),1 092 nt(363 aa)and 1 071 nt(356 aa), respectively. Phylogenetic analysis showed that CppDNV was located in genus Brevihamaparvovirus. Statistical analysis showed no significant difference in infection rates across collection times(χ2=4.429, P=0.194). Conclusions CppDNV was identified in Cx. pipiens pallens in Beijing, and it was stably maintained in this natural population.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the effect and potential mechanism of toosendanin in enhancing the antileukemic activity of cytosine arabinoside against acute myeloid leukemia （AML） based on the mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 （mTORC1） signaling pathway.METHODS Female NSG immunodeficient mice were used to establish an AML model via a single γ-ray irradiation followed by a single tail-vein injection of a U937 cell suspension. The effects of cytosine arabinoside （2.5 mg/kg）， toosendanin （1.0 mg/kg）， and cytosine arabinoside+toosendanin （2.5 mg/kg+1.0 mg/kg） on body weight， survival time， peripheral blood routine indicators， histopathological morphology， and the expressions of autophagy-related proteins were explored. Using U937 cells as the subject， the effects of cytosine arabinoside （1 μmol/L）， toosendanin （160 nmol/L）， and cytosine arabinoside+toosendanin （1 μmol/L+160 nmol/L） on the expressions of autophagy-related proteins， mTORC1 signaling pathway-related proteins and mRNAs were investigated. The targeting relationship between toosendanin and the selective autophagy ligand 1 （also known as p62） was validated， and the Gene Ontology （GO） and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes （KEGG） enrichment analyses， as well as molecular docking， were performed. A p62 -knockdown U937 stable cell line was constructed， and the underlying mechanism of toosendanin-induced sensitization was verified.RESULTS Animal experiments confirmed that the combination of toosendanin and cytosine arabinoside significantly improved body weight， survival time and peripheral blood routine indicators in AML mice （ P ＜0.05）， alleviated pathological changes such as leukemic cell infiltration and focal necrosis in bone marrow， liver， and spleen tissues， and modulated the expressions of autophagy-related proteins. Cell experiments confirmed that toosendanin could reverse cytosine arabinoside-induced activation of the autophagy cascade （manifested by downregulation of the protein expressions of microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3B and Beclin-1， upregulation the protein expression of p62）， and might inhibit the expression of the downstream Unc-51-like autophagy activating kinase 1 （ULK1） complex （including ULK1， ULK2， autophagy-related protein 13， and FAK family interacting protein of 200 kDa） by activating the mTORC1 signaling pathway （ P ＜0.05）. The sensitizing effect of toosendanin was associated with the inhibition of autophagy and the regulation of the mTORC1 signaling pathway； it could stably bind to p62 via hydrophobic interactions. Mechanism verification experiments indicated that upon p62 knockdown， toosendanin was no longer able to activate the mTORC1 signaling pathway or inhibit autophagy.CONCLUSIONS Toosendanin may enhance chemo-sensitivity of AML cells to cytosine arabinoside by directly targeting the p62 protein， which subsequently activates the mTORC1 signaling pathway， and thereby suppresses cytosine arabinoside-induced protective autophagy.

Objective To explore the relationship between bedtime procrastination and fear of missing out and the intervention effect of aerobic exercise on bedtime procrastination,so as to provide a theoretical basis and practical reference for remedying bedtime procrastination.Methods Totally 988 students were selected through random sampling and then surveyed with the bedtime procrastination scale and the fear of missing out scale.Correlation and regression analyses were performed to explore the relationship between bedtime procrastination and fear of missing out.A total of 36 students were recruited from the 988 students to participate in the exercise intervention and they were assigned into an exercise group and a control group by the random number table method,with 18 students in each group.The exercise group performed aerobic exercise for 12 weeks,while the control group maintained daily activities.The participants' scores on the bedtime procrastination scale and the fear of missing out scale were recorded before and after the intervention and compared.Results The fear of missing out was positively correlated with bedtime procrastination among college students(r=0.214,P<0.001),and it was an important predictive factor for bedtime procrastination(β=0.241,P<0.001).After the intervention,the scores of bedtime procrastination scale decreased in the exercise group(t=2.277,P=0.036),while there was no significant difference in the scores of the control group before and after intervention(t=-0.787,P=0.442).Conclusions A high level of fear of missing out indicates severe bedtime procrastination.And 12-week exercise intervention could remedy bedtime procrastination.

Objective To report cases of checkpoint inhibitor pneumonitis （CIP） in patients with advanced biliary tract cancer, aiming to provide additional approaches for the assessment, treatment, and monitoring of this condition. Methods Three patients developed oxygen desaturation and interstitial lung lesions during chemotherapy combined with immunotherapy, and were diagnosed with CIP in collaboration with the respiratory department. Antitumor therapy was discontinued in the acute phase, and glucocorticoids were administered, with regular monitoring of disease progression. During follow-up, case 1 developed lung metastasis; case 2 showed improvement; case 3 had concurrent infection and tumor progression. Results Glucocorticoids improved lung lesions and hypoxic symptoms in patients with CIP, but attention should be paid to the potential for concurrent infections and tumor progression. Conclusions Comprehensive assessment and early identification of CIP are crucial for patients with advanced biliary tract cancer. For those with recurrent symptoms after glucocorticoid therapy, timely and accurate adjustment of the treatment regimen is essential.

Objective To explore the correlation of bilateral knee joint strength asymmetry with balance,walking ability,and motor function in hemiplegic stroke patients,providing a reference for clinical assessment of stroke patients.Methods A total of 46 hemiplegic stroke patients admitted to the Rehabilitation Medicine Department of People's Hospital of Shijiazhuang from February to December 2023 were selected.According to the Berg Balance Scale(BBS)scores,patients were divided into Group A(BBS score≤20,n=23)and Group B(BBS score>20,n=23).The peak torque and differences of bilateral knee flexors and extensors were compared between two groups.Isokinetic technology was used to assess the differences in peak torque of bilateral knee joints at 60°/s and 120°/s.BBS,Functional Ambulation Classification(FAC),and Fugl-Meyer Assessment of Lower Extremity(FMA-LE)were used to evaluate patients'balance,walking ability,and lower limb motor function.The correlation between bilateral knee joint peak torque and its difference with the scores of three functional scales was analyzed.Results The peak torque of knee flexors and extensors at 60°/s in group A was significantly lower than that in group B(P<0.05).At both 60°/s and 120°/s the differences in peak torque between the healthy and affected sides of knee flexors and extensors were greater than those in group B(P<0.05).At 60°/s,the difference in peak torque of bilateral knee extensors in hemiplegic stroke patients was negatively correlated with the scores of BBS,FAC,and FMA-LE(r=-0.569,-0.582,-0.606,P<0.01),as did the knee flexors(r=-0.534,-0.386,-0.458,P<0.05).At 120°/s,similar negative correlations were observed for both knee extensors(r=-0.304,-0.304,-0.443,P<0.05)and flexors(r=-0.337,-0.349,-0.370,P<0.05).Conclusions Bilateral knee joint strength asymmetry in hemiplegic stroke patients is negatively correlated with balance and walking ability.The difference in strength between the two sides of knee joint may be one of the clinical indicators for evaluating the motor function of stroke patients.

Objective To study the changes of lipid peroxidation and antioxidant capacity in patients with hypercholesterolemia.Methods A total of 100 patients with elevated cholesterol treated in the People's Hospital of Qitaihe from January to May 2024 were included in hypercholesterolemia group,and another 80 people with normal blood lipid in the hospital during the same period were included in control group.Malondialdehyde(MDA),glutathione(GSH),glutathione reductase(GR)and total antioxidant capacity(TAC)were determined in all subjects.Results The levels of total cholesterol,low density lipoprotein-cholesterol and MDA in hypercholesterolemia group were significantly higher than those in control group,while the levels of GSH,GR and TAC were significantly lower than those in control group(P＜0.05).Conclusion Patients with hypercholesterolemia have severe lipid peroxidation,which may cause vascular endothelial cell damage.

Spine fracture and dislocation are common traumatic spinal conditions that often require surgical intervention due to compromised spinal stability. Surgical approaches include anterior, posterior, and combined anterior-posterior spinal procedures. According to the specific surgical requirements, patients may be placed in the prone position or repositioned between prone and supine positions during surgery. Intraoperative repositioning has become an essential step in patient positioning. However, during repositioning, patients with spinal fracture and dislocation are at increased risk for complications such as hemodynamic instability, nerve injury, and pressure injuries to the skin and soft tissue. Notably, due to the instability of the spinal cord, even minor manipulations can further exacerbate the damage, potentially leading to severe outcomes like paraplegia. Although the current clinical guidelines provide instructive recommendations for standard position, there remains no specific protocols for intraoperative repositioning in patients with spine fracture and dislocation. With a concern for the lack of clinical studies on positioning techniques, risk prevention, and operational norms for special patients, no applicable guidelines or standards are available. A consensus was required to provide clinical reference, meet the requirements of surgical treatment, and minimize the safety risks of patients caused by improper placement of positions. Professional Committee of Operating Room Nursing of Shaanxi Nursing Association organized experts in nursing management and operating room nursing from major hospitals across China to formulate Expert consensus on intraoperative repositioning for patients with spinal fracture and dislocation ( version 2025). The consensus provides 11 recommendations covering pre-repositioning preparation, intraoperative maneuvers, and post-repositioning observation, aiming to provide references for clinical standardization of the intraoperative repositioning process and protection of patients′ safety.
