This paper systematically summarizes the practical experience of the 2025 Dingri earthquake emergency medical rescue in Tibet. It analyzes the requirements for earthquake medical rescue under conditions of high-altitude hypoxia, low temperature, and low air pressure. The paper provides a detailed discussion on the strategic layout of earthquake medical rescue at the national level, local government level, and through social participation. It covers the construction of rescue organizational systems, technical systems, material support systems, and information systems. The importance of building rescue teams is emphasized. In high-altitude and cold conditions, rapid response, scientific decision-making, and multi-party collaboration are identified as key elements to enhance rescue efficiency. By optimizing rescue organizational structures, strengthening the development of new equipment, and promoting telemedicine technologies, the precision and effectiveness of medical rescue can be significantly improved, providing important references for future similar disaster rescues.

OBJECTIVE To explore the pathogenesis， diagnosis and treatment of drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms （DRESS） caused by cross-allergy between cephalosporins and carbapenems， and provide reference for safe clinical medication. METHODS Clinical pharmacists participated in the diagnosis and treatment process of a patient with severe pneumonia whose DRESS caused by suspected cross-allergy between cephalosporins and carbapenems in our hospital. At the same time， relevant studies on the pathogenesis， diagnosis， treatment， and cross-allergy between cephalosporins and carbapenems were retrieved for analysis. Based on the clinical manifestations and treatment process of this patient， the possible mechanisms of cross- allergy between cephalosporins and carbapenems and the treatment strategies for DRESS were discussed. RESULTS The RegiSCAR score of this patient was 6 points， confirming the diagnosis of DRESS. There may be β-lactam ring-specific human leucocyte antigen alleles or T-cell receptors， which led to suspected cross-allergic reactions between cephalosporins and carbapenems. The clinical pharmacists suggested discontinuing cephalosporins and carbapenems and using methylprednisolone combined with immunoglobulin for treatment. The physician adopted the pharmacist’s suggestion， and the patient did not have fever again and the rash gradually subsided. CONCLUSIONS There is a possibility of cross-allergy between cephalosporins and carbapenems causing DRESS. For patients with DRESS， it is recommended to promptly investigate the suspected drugs and discontinue them. The combination of glucocorticoids and immunoglobulin is a feasible treatment option. Medical institutions with conditions should conduct herpesvirus screening and treatment.

Metastasis serves as an indicator of malignancy and is a biological characteristic of carcinomas. Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) plays a key role in the promotion of tumor invasion and metastasis and in the enhancement of tumor cell aggressiveness. Prostaglandin E synthase 3 (p23) is a cochaperone for heat shock protein 90 (HSP90). Our previous study showed that p23 is an HSP90-independent transcription factor in cancer-associated inflammation. The effect and mechanism of action of p23 on lung cancer metastasis are tested in this study. By utilizing cell models in vitro and mouse tail vein metastasis models in vivo, the results provide solid evidence that p23 is critical for promoting lung cancer metastases by regulating downstream CXCL1 expression. Rather than acting independently, p23 forms a complex with RNA-binding motif protein 14 (RBM14) to facilitate EMT progression in lung cancer. Therefore, our study provides evidence for the potential role of the RBM14-p23-CXCL1-EMT axis in the metastasis of lung cancer.

Objective:To explore the clinical phenotype and genetic etiology for a Chinese pedigree affected with Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD).Methods:A pedigree with ADPKD diagnosed at the Department of Gynaecology of the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University in December 2020 was selected as the study subject. Clinical data of the pedigree was collected, and whole exome sequencing (WES) was carried out for the proband. Candidate variants were verified by Sanger sequencing of the proband and her relatives. This study was approved by the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University (Ethics No. KS-2018-KY-36).Results:Fetal ultrasonography showed increased volume and parenchymal echogenicity in both kidneys. The fetus was found to harbor c. 11098C>T (p.R3700C) and c.11039T>C (p.F3680S) compound heterozygous variants of the PKD1 gene, which were respectively inherited from its mother and father. Based on the guidelines from the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics (ACMG), both variants were predicted to be likely pathogenic (PM1+ PM2_Supporting+ PP3). Conclusion:The c. 11098C>T (p.R3700C) and c. 11039T>C (p.F3680S) compound heterozygous variants of the PKD1 gene probably underlay the ADPKD in the fetus. Above finding has provided guidance for the genetic counseling and prenatal diagnosis for this pedigree.

Objective China is among the 30 countries with a high burden of tuberculosis(TB)worldwide,and TB remains a public health concern.Kashgar Prefecture in the southern Xinjiang Autonomous Region is considered as one of the highest TB burden regions in China.However,molecular epidemiological studies of Kashgar are lacking. Methods A population-based retrospective study was conducted using whole-genome sequencing(WGS)to determine the characteristics of drug resistance and the transmission patterns. Results A total of 1,668 isolates collected in 2020 were classified into lineages 2(46.0%),3(27.5%),and 4(26.5%).The drug resistance rates revealed by WGS showed that the top three drugs in terms of the resistance rate were isoniazid(7.4%,124/1,668),streptomycin(6.0%,100/1,668),and rifampicin(3.3%,55/1,668).The rate of rifampicin resistance was 1.8%(23/1,290)in the new cases and 9.4%(32/340)in the previously treated cases.Known resistance mutations were detected more frequently in lineage 2 strains than in lineage 3 or 4 strains,respectively:18.6%vs.8.7 or 9%,P<0.001.The estimated proportion of recent transmissions was 25.9%(432/1,668).Multivariate logistic analyses indicated that sex,age,occupation,lineage,and drug resistance were the risk factors for recent transmission.Despite the low rate of drug resistance,drug-resistant strains had a higher risk of recent transmission than the susceptible strains(adjusted odds ratio,1.414;95%CI,1.023-1.954;P = 0.036).Among all patients with drug-resistant tuberculosis(DR-TB),78.4%(171/218)were attributed to the transmission of DR-TB strains. Conclusion Our results suggest that drug-resistant strains are more transmissible than susceptible strains and that transmission is the major driving force of the current DR-TB epidemic in Kashgar.

Objective To analyze the characteristics of visceral leishmaniasis cases in Henan Province, so as to provide insights into formulation of the visceral leishmaniasis control srtrategy. Methods All epidemiological data of reported visceral leishmaniasis cases in Henan Province from 2021 to 2023 were retrieved from the National Notifiable Disease Report Information Management System of Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention, and the epidemiological features and diagnosis of visceral leishmaniasis cases were descriptively analyzed. Results A total of 93 visceral leishmaniasis cases were reported in Henan Province from 2021 to 2023, with a male to female ratio of 2.58∶1, and including 2 imported cases from other provinces and 91 local cases. The number of visceral leishmaniasis cases peaked during the period between March and May, and between July and October. The reported visceral leishmaniasis cases had ages of 7 months to 74 years, with the largest number of cases found at ages of 0 to 9 years (26 cases, 27.96%), followed by at ages of 60 to 70 years (24 cases, 25.81%). Farmer (47 cases, 50.54%) and diaspora children (19 cases, 20.43%) were predominant occupations, and 91 local visceral leishmaniasis cases were found in 6 cities of Zhengzhou, Luoyang, Anyang, Hebi, Sanmenxia and Xuchang. The median duration from onset of visceral leishmaniasis to diagnosis was 20 days, and there were 25.81% (24/93) cases with 10 days and less duration from onset to diagnosis, 38.71% (36/93) cases receiving diagnosis at 11 to 30 days following onset, and 35.48% (33/93) cases receiving diagnosis for more than 30 days following onset. All cases were predominantly diagnosed in province- (60.00%) and city-level (28.89%) medical institutions. Conclusions The number of visceral leishmaniasis is on the rise in Henan Province, with a gradually expanding coverage. Intensified monitoring of visceral leishmaniasis cases, dogs, and vectors, dog management, sandflies control and improved individual protection are recommended to prevent the spread of visceral leishmaniasis.

Currently, the management of domestic laboratory developed test (LDT) is still in the exploration stage, and new plans and ideas need to be investigated that are suitable for our national development. By analyzing encountered issues, combining the actual needs of the government, healthcare reform, and patients, this article proposes that "promoting healthy development of LDT projects and focusing on the organic combination of patients′ interest protection and innovation support" is an important direction for LDT management, around which the new idea for LDT project management is proposed, that is, LDT management model targeting product registration. The core of this management model is to target product registration and to ensure low service fees for patients and continuous real-time data monitoring. Benefit and risk analysis demonstrate that this management model can to a larger extent balance the realistic demands of patients, medical institutions, in vitro diagnostics companies, and government management departments, which benefits promoting the perfection and development of LDT projects in our country.

The effect of porcine SIRT5 on replication of foot and mouth disease virus type O(FMDV-O)and the underlying regulatory mechanism were investigated.Western blot and RT-qPCR analyses were employed to monitor expression of endoge-nous SIRT5 in PK-15 cells infected with FMDV-O.Three pairs of SIRT5-specific siRNAs were synthesized.Changes to SIRT5 and FMDV-O protein and transcript levels,in addition to virus copy numbers,were measured by western blot and RT-qPCR analyses.PK-15 cells were transfected with a eukaryotic SIRT5 expression plasmid.Western blot and RT-qPCR analyses were used to explore the impact of SIRT5 overexpression on FMDV-O replication.Meanwhile,RT-qPCR analysis was used to detect the effect of SIRT5 overexpression on the mRNA expression levels of type I interferon-stimulated genes induced by SeV and FMDV-O.The results showed that expression of SIRT5 was up-regulated in PK-15 cells infected with FMDV-O and siRNA interfered with SIRT5 to inhibit FMDV-O replication.SIRT5 overexpression promoted FMDV-O replication.SIRT5 over-expression decreased mRNA expression levels of interferon-stimulated genes induced by SeV and FMDV-O.These results suggest that FMDV-O infection stimulated expression of SIRT5 in PK-15 cells,while SIRT5 promoted FMDV-O rep-lication by inhibiting production of type I interferon-stimula-ted genes.These findings provide a reference to further ex-plore the mechanism underlying the ability of porcine SIRT5 to promote FMDV-O replication.
