Laboratory animal science plays a crucial role in the education and training of medical students.To ensure effective teaching of laboratory animal science in Chinese medicine institutions,the principles of Chinese medicine characteristics and innovation should be incorporated.This pedagogical approach aims to enrich traditional cultural literacy in Chinese medicine and foster the students'capacities for innovation and critical thinking.Daily teaching of laboratory animal science should encompass various educational aspects,including inheritance,ethics,migration,exploration,inspiration,and extension education.By integrating these components and emphasizing the intersections of Chinese medicine with laboratory animal science,important areas,such as animal welfare in Chinese medicine research,the application of Chinese medicine theories in animal experiments,considerations for animal models in Chinese medicine,and the selection of experimental animal species,can be addressed.Additionally,this approach guides new research directions and effectively cultivates the students'scientific research,innovation,and practical abilities.The primary objective of this program is to nurture scientific innovation and practical competence among students while prioritizing the superior quality of innovative education in the context of Chinese medicine.Such efforts offer a solid foundation to advance traditional medical practices and nurture a new generation of professionals dedicated to preserving traditional medicine.

Objective:To explore the pathogenicity and genotype-phenotype correlation of a c. 158G>A variant of phenylalanine hydroxylase ( PAH) gene among patients with PAH deficiency. Methods:Thirty seven children diagnosed with PAH deficiency at the Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital Affiliated to Nanjing Medical University between July 2016 and June 2021 were selected as the study subjects. Clinical data and results of genetic testing were retrospectively analyzed.Results:Among the 37 patients, mild hyperphenylalaninemia (HPA) was observed in 34 cases, two PAH variants (including c. 158G>A), which formed a compound heterozygous mutation genotype, were detected in 33 patients, and the remainder one was found to harbor three PAH variants, including homozygous c. 158G>A variants and a heterozygous c. 842+ 2T>A variant. Classical phenylketonuria (PKU) was observed in 3 patients, and three PAH variants were detected in each of them, including two with c. [158G>A, 842+ 2T>A]/c.728G>A and c. [158G>A, 842+ 2T>A]/c.611A>G, respectively, and one with c. [158G>A, c. 722G>A]/c.728G>A. The c. 158G>A variant has a minimal influence on the PAH activity and is associated with a mild HPA phenotype. The variant should thereby be classified as likely benign. Conclusion:When the c. 158G>A variant and other pathogenic variants are arranged in cis position, the ultimate phenotype will be determined by the pathogenicity of other variants.

Objective:To preliminarily investigate the effect of blue light on the biological activity of human skin keratinocytes, fibroblasts and melanocytes.Methods:Discarded foreskin tissues were collected from 10 healthy children aged from 3 to 12 years after circumcision surgery in the First Affiliated Hospital of Kunming Medical University from June 2021 to December 2021. After epidermis-dermis separation, selective culture was performed to isolate keratinocytes, fibroblasts, and melanocytes. According to the pre-experiment results, the above three types of cells were irradiated with 440 - 450 nm blue light at doses of 0, 5, 10, 20, 30, and 40 J/cm 2, and then continued to be cultured for 0, 6, 24, and 48 hours. Cell counting kit 8 (CCK8) assay was performed to evaluate cellular proliferative activity at each time point, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) to detect levels of interleukin (IL) -18, IL-33, nerve growth factor (NGF), and granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) secreted by keratinocytes, as well as levels of IL-33 and keratinocyte growth factor (KGF) secreted by fibroblasts, NaOH lysis method to determine melanin synthesis rates in melanocytes, and Western blot analysis to determine the relative expression of tyrosinase (TYR), tyrosine-related protease 1 (TRP-1) and dopachrome isomerase (DCT) in melanocytes. Two-way analysis of variance was used to analyze group effects, time effects and interaction effects. Results:After irradiation with blue light, the cellular proliferative activity significantly differed among different doses of blue light irradiation groups and different time points in keratinocytes ( Ftime = 516.20, Fdose = 421.20, Finteraction = 25.05, all P < 0.003), fibroblasts ( Ftime = 129.30, Fdose = 477.80, Finteraction = 10.91, all P < 0.003), and melanocytes ( Ftime = 77.61, Fdose = 138.70, Finteraction = 3.50, all P < 0.003) ; immediately after irradiation, the proliferative activity of keratinocytes and fibroblasts was significantly lower in the 20 - 40 J/cm 2 blue light group than in the 0 J/cm 2 blue light group (all P < 0.003), and the proliferative activity of melanocytes was significantly higher in the 5 J/cm 2 blue light group than in the 0 J/cm 2 blue light group ( P < 0.003) ; the proliferative activity of the 3 types of cells showed decreasing trends with the increase of blue light irradiation doses and culture time. ELISA showed that the concentrations of IL-18, IL-33, NGF, and GM-CSF secreted by keratinocytes, as well as the concentrations of IL-33 and KGF secreted by fibroblasts, tended to increase with the increase of blue light irradiation doses and culture time. The melanin synthesis rates in melanocytes significantly differed among different doses of blue light irradiation groups and different time points ( Ftime = 833.50, Fdose = 249.40, Finteraction = 81.38, all P < 0.003) ; during 0 - 24 hours after blue light irradiation, the melanin synthesis rates tended to increase with the increase of blue light irradiation doses and time; during 24 - 48 hours, the melanin synthesis rates showed decreasing trends with the increase of blue light irradiation doses and culture time compared with that at 24 hours after irradiation; 24 hours after irradiation, the melanin synthesis rates were significantly higher in the 5, 10, 20, 30 and 40 J/cm 2 blue light groups (159.50% ± 10.88%, 218.76% ± 8.49%, 333.72% ± 7.72%, 393.29% ± 6.00%, 427.21% ± 8.39%, respectively) than in the 0 J/cm 2 blue light group (102.29% ± 6.57%, all P < 0.003). The relative expression of TYR ( Ftime = 67.94, Fdose = 28.99, Finteraction = 3.71, all P < 0.003), TRP-1 ( Ftime = 21.73, Fdose = 8.38, both P < 0.003) and DCT ( Ftime = 34.51, Fdose = 11.79, both P < 0.003) in melanocytes significantly differed among different doses of blue light irradiation groups and different time points, and tended to increase with the increase of blue light irradiation doses and culture time. Conclusion:Blue light irradiation at doses of 5 - 40 J/cm 2 could inhibit the proliferative activity of human skin keratinocytes, fibroblasts, and melanocytes, and the inhibitory effect tended to increase with the increase of blue light irradiation doses, except an enhancing effect on the proliferative activity of melanocytes observed immediately after irradiation with blue light at 5 J/cm 2; additionally, blue light irradiation at 5 - 40 J/cm 2 could enhance the expression of melanin synthesis-related enzymes in melanocytes, and increase the melanin synthesis rate in melanocytes over a short period of time.

China’s chronic disease management suffers from problems such as unclear institutional function， insufficient information technology application， and weak regulation support. On the basis of current chronic disease management condition in China， this paper proposes to apply the concept of “people-centered” integrated health management to community chronic disease management and discusses the content and procedure of establishing an integrated community-based chronic disease management model driven by massive databases. The model innovatively combines technology integration， data integration and service integration， and can accurately and efficiently realize the "people-centered" full-course health management of various chronic diseases. Shanghai has provided integrated community-based chronic disease management service for 1.98 million citizens through applying this model. The model warrants further effectiveness and economic evaluation. This study provides precious experience for the development of chronic disease prevention and treatment in China.

The policy implementation model of G. C. Edwards was used to analyze the public policy health impact assessment in Zhejiang province, and summarize its practice and existing problems in four aspects of policy implementation standards, policy resources, policy executors′ intention and management organization structure, so as to provide reference for promoting the national health impact assessment pilot work. The analysis results showed that Zhejiang province has initially established the public policy health impact assessment mechanism and achieved phased results, but there were still some problems, including the imperfection of policy content and implementation strategy, the inadequacy of leadership decision-making and top-level design, the difference in attitude, understanding and implementation preference of policy implementation subjects, and the ambiguity of the authority and responsibility system of each department in cooperation. In order to further promote the smooth development of public policy health impact assessment, Zhejiang province should actively promote the top-level design to strengthen policy support, integrate and optimize policy resources, gradually establish and improve the health governance mechanism of multiple and overall coordination, and promote the high-quality development of public policy health impact assessment by taking cross departmental cooperation as the path of health co-construction.

Objective:To investigate the clinical characteristics and pathogenic mutations of propionic acidemia.Methods:Clinical data of two patients with propionic acidemia admitted to the Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from May 2017 to June 2018 were collected. Genomic DNA was extracted from the peripheral blood of the patients and their parents. Inherited disease panel based on Ion Torrent semiconductor sequencing technology was performed to detect gene mutations, and those with suspected pathogenic mutations were verified by Sanger sequencing. Descriptive statistical analysis was used for data analysis.Results:Case 1 was suspected of sepsis and admitted to the Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital of Nanjing Medical University due to "drowsiness and milk rejection" on the second day after birth. Tandem mass spectrometry suggested the level of propionyl carnitine and its ratios to acetylcarnitine and free carnitine were increased. Urine gas chromatography-mass spectrometry showed elevated 3-hydroxypropionic acid and methylcitric acid. Genetic analysis revealed that the infant carried c.331C>T (p.R111X)/c.1228C>T (p.R410W) compound heterozygous mutations in the PCCB gene. The infant was diagnosed with propionic acidemia and treated with a special diet with an L-Carnitine supplement but died of sudden coma and vomiting without precipitating factors at three months of age. Case 2 presented with sudden vomiting, drowsiness, and anergia on the admission at five-months old. Tandem mass spectrometry showed increased propionyl carnitine level and its ratios. Compound heterozygous mutations of c.146delG (p.G49EfsX16)/c.1253C>T (p.A418V) in the PCCB gene were identified in the patient, of which c.146delG (p.G49EfsX16) was a de novo mutation and was evaluated as a pathogenic mutation. The patient was on a special diet with an L-Carnitine supplement, but with disobedience. Followed up to the age of three years and eight months, the child was severely underdeveloped. Conclusions:Neonates with clinically suspected sepsis may have propionic acidemia, and tandem mass spectrometry and genetic testing should be performed as soon as possible to confirm or rule out the diagnosis. Further investigations on the pathogenesis and function of the new mutation are still needed.
