OBJECTIVE: To assess relationships between cold spells and genitourinary hospitalization risk. METHODS: Hospitalization records for genitourinary system diseases (GUDs) from 16 districts in Beijing (2013-2018) were analyzed. Cold spells were defined based on varying intensity thresholds. A two-stage analytical method was employed: first, generalized linear models assessed district-specific associations between cold spells and hospitalizations; second, random-effects meta-analysis aggregated the district-level results. Subgroup analyses were performed by admission type (emergency vs. outpatient), age, and sex. RESULTS: A total of 271,579 GUD-related hospitalizations were recorded. Cold spells (p1day2，daily mean temperature below the 1 ^st percentiles of the daily mean temperature distribution from January 1, 2013, to December 31, 2018, lasting for two or more consecutive days) were linked to a significant rise in hospitalization risks: 1.43 (95% CI: 1.32-1.56) for all GUDs, 1.35 (95% CI: 1.23-1.49) for urinary system diseases, and 1.46 (95% CI: 1.28-1.67) for renal failure, when compared to non-cold spell days. Emergency admissions showed higher risk increases than outpatient admissions. CONCLUSION Extreme cold spells significantly elevate hospitalization risks for GUDs. This highlights the urgent need for targeted public health interventions to mitigate cold-related health impacts, especially for vulnerable populations.

Objective To explore the prognostic value of hyperdense artery sign(HAS)in elderly patients with acute anterior LVO in anterior circulation undergoing mechanical thrombectomy.Methods A single-center retrospective analysis was conducted on 109 patients with acute LVO of anterior circulation admitted in our department from January 2019 to December 2022.According to their preoperative plain CT scans,they were divided into HAS positive(39 patients)and HAS negative(70 patients)groups.Baseline features,surgical indicators,complications and outcomes were compared between the two groups.Results The patients with HAS had significantly larger proportions of atrial fibrillation and symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage than those without the sign(53.8％vs 31.4％,20.5％vs 5.7％,P＜0.05).The rate of 90-day good prognosis was a little higher in the HAS positive group than the negative group,though no statistical difference(48.7％vs 38.6％,P＞0.05).Male,stroke history,SBP,NIHSS at admission,HAS positivity,revasculiza-tion,and symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage were independent influencing factors for favorable prognosis in the patients(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).Conclusion The presence of HAS is a prognostic marker for patients with acute LVO in anterior circulation undergoing mechanical thrombectomy,and it is associated with a higher risk of symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage.

In recent years, the situation of climate change has intensified, posing a threat to public health. There is an urgent need to promote public health adaptation actions to climate change. In January 2025, the National Disease Control and Prevention Administration issued the "Guidelines for Public Health Adaptation Actions to Climate Change" (hereinafter referred to as the "Guidelines"). The Guidelines put forward 20 items of guidance on six categories of public health adaptation actions, including understanding basic concepts, comprehending important policies, learning core knowledge, paying attention to key populations, practicing a low-carbon lifestyle, and mastering protection skills. It elaborates on the key concepts and the latest policies that the public needs to understand, and also provides the behavioral concepts and protection skills that should be mastered to adapt to climate change. This article provides a systematic interpretation of the Guidelines, introducing the background, ideas, connotations, and applications of their compilation, with the aim of enhancing society′s cognitive understanding of the Guidelines.

Aim To explore the therapeutic effect and mechanism of Qingjie Huagong decoction in modulating PI3K/AKT/NF-κB signaling pathway in inflammatory response of acute pancreatitis(AP)mice.Methods Twenty-four mice were randomly divided into Blank group,Model group,Ustekin group,and Qingjie Hua-gong decoction group,with six mice in each group.The AP model was prepared by using rain frogin.Serum α-AMS,PNLP,IL-1β,IL-6,IL-8,IL-18,and TNF-α lev-els were detected by ELISA;the pancreatic pathology was detected by HE staining;the expressions of PI3K,AKT,and NF-κB-related proteins and mRNAs were de-tected by immunohistochemistry,Western blot,and RT-qPCR.Results Compared with the blank group,the model group showed obvious pathological damage to the pancreas,with significantly higher serum α-AMS,PN-LP,IL-1β,IL-6,IL-8,IL-18,and TNF-α levels(P＜0.01),and significantly higher levels of PI3K,AKT,and NF-κB-related proteins and mRNA expression(P＜0.01).Compared with the model group,both the Qingjie Huagong decoction group and the ustekin group improved the histopathological changes in the pancreas of AP mice,decreased the serum α-AMS,PNLP,IL-1β,IL-6,IL-8,IL-18,and TNF-α levels,and down-reg-ulated the expression levels of pancreatic PI3K,AKT,NF-κB-related proteins and mRNA(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01).Conclusion Qingjie Huagong decoction may inhibit the inflammatory response and protect pancreat-ic tissues by regulating the expression of PI3K/AKT/NF-κB signaling pathway.

Objective To investigate the value of non-contrast CT(NCCT)-based radiomics for identifying acute unilateral middle cerebral artery occlusion(MCAO)with negative hyperdense artery sign(HAS).Methods All 80 patients with acute unilateral MCAO confirmed by angiography(MR angiography[MRA]or CT angiography[CTA]or DSA)and presenting with negative NCCT presentation for HAS were enrolled from January 2015 to June 2023 in the Emergency Department of Stroke Center of Affiliated Hospital of Yangzhou university.On the NCCT images,the occluded segment of the middle cerebral artery on the affected side of each case and the corresponding segment of the vessel on the normal side were used as the regions of interest,and a total of 108 radiomic features were extracted.The least absolute shrinkage and selection operator(LASSO)was used to screen the key features,construct and calculate the radiomics score,and four imaging histology models,support vector machine(SVM),light gradient boosting machine(LightGBM),GradientBoosting and adaptive boosting(AdaBoost),were built respectively to predict MCAO.Predictive performance was evaluated by the area under the receiver operating characteristic curves,and comparisons between the modeled receiver operating characteristic curves were made using the Delong test.Finally,the value of the application of radiological modeling was assessed by clinical decision curve analysis(DCA).Results The NCCT images based on 160 vessels were finally screened for 6 key features,including skewness,energy,gray level size zone matrix(GLSZM)-gray uneven,GLSZM-low gray area emphasis,GLSZM-size area non-uniform standardization,GLSZM-area entropy.The area under the curve(AUC)of the SVM-test was 0.688(95％CI 0.497-0.878)with an accuracy of 0.688;the AUC of the LightGBM-test was 0.787(95％CI 0.620-0.955)with an accuracy of 0.781;the AUC of the GradientBoosting-test was 0.654(95％CI 0.457-0.852)with an accuracy of 0.688;the AUC of the AdaBoost-test was 0.707(95％CI 0.515-0.899)with an accuracy of 0.750.The Delong test showed a statistically significant difference between LightGBM-test and GradientBoosting-test(P=0.040),and no statistically significant difference in performance between the remaining models(all P＞0.05).DCA showed that the LightGBM-test performed better.Conclusion NCCT-based radiomics has good diagnostic efficacy for identifying acute unilateral MCAO with negative HAS,and this conclusion needs to be further verified by multi-center and large sample studies.
