Objective: To explore the association between CDKAL1 rs35261542, FAIM2 rs 3205718, and VGLL4 rs 2574704 polymorphisms with childhood obesity and related metabolic phenotypes to provide evidence for personalized prevention and management strategies. Methods: Based on the 2023 Long term Nutritional Health Effects of Early Childhood Nutrition Package Intervention project, the study enrolled 1 078 children aged 5-7 years from four counties in Henan (Songxian and Ruyang countries) and Guizhou (Guiding and Fuquan countries) provinces. Using BMI Z scores, 87 overweight and obese(OVOB) children were selected and matched by sex, age, and BMI Z score with 117 normal weight controls. Participants were further stratified into four metabolic phenotype groups: metabolically healthy normal weight (MHNW, n =51), metabolically unhealthy normal weight (MUNW, n =66), metabolically healthy obesity (MHO, n =31) and metabolically unhealthy obesity (MUO, n =56) based on four conventional cardiometabolic risk factor (CR) criteria. Data were collected through questionnaires, anthropometric measurements, serum biochemical tests, and KASP genotyping. The distribution of three genetic polymorphisms ( CDKAL1 rs35261542, FAIM2 rs3205718, VGLL4 rs 2574704) across metabolic subgroups was analyzed. Multivariate Logistic regression models assessed associations between these polymorphisms and obesity/metabolic phenotypes. Results: Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that Homozygous mutant AA genotype of CDKAL1 rs 35261542 was positively associated with OVOB( OR =3.63), MHO ( OR =11.04), MUO ( OR = 4.88 ) ( P <0.05). Homozygous TT genotype of FAIM2 rs 3205718 increased OVOB risk ( OR =4.44, P <0.05) but showed no association with metabolic phenotypes ( P >0.05). Homozygous mutant TT of VGLL4 rs 2574704 reduced the risks of MHO and MUO ( OR = 0.30, 0.24， P <0.05). Cumulative genetic effects analysis demonstrated carriers of 1 or 2 risk genotypes of rs 35261542 and rs 3205718 had progressively higher OVOB risk ( OR =2.53, 20.79), and the combination of rs 35261542 and rs 2574704 increased risks for both MHO ( OR =8.50) and MUO ( OR =5.00) ( P <0.05). Conclusions The AA genotype of rs 35261542 ( CDKAL1 ) positively correlates with childhood obesity and metabolic abnormalities. The TT genotype of rs 3205718 ( FAIM 2) increases obesity risk but not metabolic phenotypes. The TT genotype of rs 2574704 ( VGLL 4) shows protective effects against metabolic dysfunction. Risk genotypes exhibit dosedependent cumulative effects on obesity and metabolic outcomes.

OBJECTIVE To construct an evaluation index system for the core competencies of ethics committee members of drug clinical trial institution， providing a basis for optimizing the training system for committee members， improving the quality of ethical review， and fully safeguarding the safety and rights of subjects. METHODS Using methods such as literature research and expert consultation， a preliminary core competency evaluation index system was constructed. The Delphi method was employed to revise and validate it， ultimately forming an evaluation index system for the core competencies of ethics committee members. Based on this system， a questionnaire survey was conducted among 90 ethics committee members from 29 drug clinical trial institutions nationwide， comparing their importance rating and self-assessment scores of the core competency indexes. RESULTS The evaluation system constructed included 4 primary indicators （ethics and professional knowledge， ethics review ability， communication and expression ability， moral integrity and work style） and 39 secondary indicators （familiarity with the content of clinical trial-related laws and regulations， ability to complete project ethics review and identify ethical defects in research protocols within a short period of time， ability to judge the scientific value of clinical research， etc.）. The results of questionnaire survey showed that the interviewed ethics committee members had significant capability gaps in dimensions such as regulatory knowledge， ethical norms， review efficiency， risk judgment， and problem analysis. The differences between the importance rating scores of corresponding secondary indicators and the self-assessment scores were all no less than 0.38. CONCLUSIONS This study has developed a quantifiable and stratified core competency assessment tool for ethics committee members. It can provide a scientific framework for committee member training， qualification certification， and standardized management of ethics committees.

Aim To explore the feasibility of the cloud exposure system for in vitro exposure experiments on inhalation toxicology.Methods Calu-3 cells cultured at the air-liquid interface(ALI)were exposed to three concentrations of lipopolysaccha-ride(LPS):high,medium,and low(800,400,200 mg·L-1)by the cloud exposure system,and phosphate buffer solu-tion(PBS)was used as a negative control group for one expo-sure,while the high concentration of LPS was used to expose Calu-3 cells for five times.Calu-3 cells were exposed to phos-phate buffer solution(PBS)once as negative control group and to high concentration of LPS solution for five times,and the ac-tivity of Calu-3 cells,the release of lactate dehydrogenase(LDH),TEER,mucin MUC5AC,and the expression of inflam-matory factors IL-6,IL-8 and TNF-α were detected 3 h and 24 h after the end of the exposure,respectively.Results Compared with the PBS-negative control group,after exposure to the Calu-3 cell model at the air-liquid interface with three concentrations of LPS,high,medium,and low,there were no significant changes in the activity and LDH release,but the cellular electrical resist-ance value was reduced,and the barrier function of the cells was impaired;with the increase of the exposure concentration,the LPS promoted the expression of the cellular mucin MUC5AC,which led to a decrease in the expression of cellular IL-6,IL-8,and a decrease in the expression of TNF-α.Expression of IL-6 and IL-8 decreased and TNF-α expression increased;as the fre-quency of exposure increased,LPS inhibited the expression of mucin and increased the expression of IL-6;an increase in the frequency of exposure along with a prolongation of post-exposure assay time resulted in an increase in the expression of cellular IL-8 and TNF-a.Conclusions The ALI cloud exposure ap-proach can effectively reflect the cellular response to positive subjects,and this in vitro exposure can be used in subsequent exposure experiments to evaluate the inhalation toxicity of com-pounds.

Objective:To investigate frequency and function of peripheral CD4+CD28-T cells in immune thrombocytopenia(ITP)patients,to deeply understand pathogenesis of ITP.Methods:A total of 30 ITP patients treated in The Second Affiliated Hospi-tal of Dalian Medical University from January 2021 to June 2022 were recruited,and 30 gender/age-matched healthy volunteers were served as control group.Peripheral anticoagulation was collected and mononuclear cells(PBMC)were extracted,frequencies and func-tions of CD4+CD28-T cells in PBMC was analyzed by flow cytometry,plasma levels of IL-18 and IL-18BP in ITP patients were detected by ELISA,and frequencies of CD4+CD28-T cells before and after treated with IL-18 were determined by flow cytometry.Results:Frequencies of CD4+CD28-T cells in peripheral blood of ITP patients were significantly higher than that of healthy control group,and CD4+CD28-T cells had a stronger ability to secrete IFN-γ and TNF-α;level of IL-18 was higher in plasma from ITP patients;IL-18 could increase frequency of CD4+CD28-T cells in PBMC of ITP patients.Conclusion:Frequency of CD4+CD28-T cells in peripheral blood of ITP patients is significantly increased,and has stronger ability to secrete inflammatory factors.

Objective:To investigate the effect of pre-treatment plasma Epstein-Barr virus(EBV)DNA copy number on the clinical features and prognosis of patients with adult secondary hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis(sHLH).Methods:The clinical characteristics,survival rate,and prognostic factors of 171 patients with adult sHLH treated at Jiangsu Province Hospital from June 2017 to January 2022 were retrospectively analyzed in this study.Patients were divided into three groups,including the EBV DNA-negative group(＜5.0 × 102 copies/ml),lower EBV-DNA loads group(5.0 × 102-8.51 × 104 copies/ml),and higher EBV-DNA loads group(＞8.51 × 104 copies/ml),according to pre-treatment plasma EBV-DNA copy number.Cox regression model was established for screening prognostic factors.Adult sHLH survival prediction model was constructed and realized through the nomogram based on EBV-DNA load after adjusted the factors affecting survival of etiology and treatment strategy.Concordance index(C-index)and calibration curves were calculated to verify model predictive and discriminatory capacity.Results:Among 171 adult sHLH patients,84 patients were not infected with EBV(EBV DNA-negative group),and 87 with EBV(EBV DNA-positive group,48 lower EBV-DNA loads group and 39 higher EBV-DNA loads group).Consistent elevations in the levels of liver enzymes(ALT and AST),LDH,TG,β2-microglobulin and ferritin across the increasing of EBV-DNA load(all P＜0.05),while the levels of fibrinogen decrease(P＜0.001).The median follow-up time was 52 days(range 20-230 days),and 123 patients died.The overall survival(OS)rate of patients in EBV DNA-positive group was lower than that in EBV DNA-negative group(median OS:40 days vs 118 days,P＜0.001).Higher EBV-DNA loads had worse OS(median OS:24 days vs 45 days vs 118 days,P＜0.0001 for trend)compared to lower EBV-DNA loads and EBV DNA-negative group.Multivariate Cox analysis revealed that higher EBV-DNA loads(P=0.005),fibrinogen≤ 1.5 g/L(P=0.012),ferritin(P=0.041),associated lymphoma(P=0.002),and anti-tumor based strategy(P=0.001)were independent prognostic factors for OS.The C-indexes of 30 day,90 days,365 days survival rate were all greater than 0.8 of the nomogram model and calibration curves provided credibility to their predictive capability.Subgroup analysis showed that patients with higher EBV-DNA loads had a significantly worse prognosis in adult sHLH who were women,ferritin＞5 000 μg/L,β2-microglobulin＞7.4 mmol/L and regardless of age,etiologies,HScore points.Conclusion:The EBV-DNA load is a strong and independent predictor for survival in patients with sHLH.The prognostic nomogram based on EBV-DNA loads was dependable and provides a visual tool for evaluating the survival of adult sHLH.

Objective:To investigate the frequencies and subset distribution of peripheral helper(Tph)T cells in patients with immune thrombocytopenia(ITP),and explore the pathogenesis of ITP.Methods:A total of 25 newly diagnosed ITP patients treated in The Second Affiliated Hospital of Dalian Medical University from January to December 2022 were selected,and 25 healthy volunteers(age-and sex-matched)were recruited as the control group.Flow cytometry was used to detect the subsets of CD4+T cells and Tph cells.Results:The frequency of effector memory(CCR7-CD45RO+CD4+)T cells in ITP patients was significantly higher than that in healthy controls(P＜0.05).The frequency of Tph cells in ITP patients was also significantly higher than that in healthy controls(P＜0.001),and most of the Tph cells in ITP patients were effector memory T cells.Furthermore,the expressions of T-cell costimulatory molecules in Tph cells,including ICOS and CD84,were similar to those in follicular helper T(Tfh)cells.CXCR3-CCR6-Tph(Tph2)subgroup was dominant in Tph cells,but the frequency of CXCR3+CCR6-Tph(Tph1)cells in ITP patients was much higher than that in healthy controls(P＜0.05).Conclusion:Tph cells,especially Tph1 cells,were abnormally expanded in ITP patients,which may be a potential etiology of ITP.

Objective　To analyze the characteristics of the malaria epidemic and the indicators for "1-3-7" from 2021 to 2023 in China, understand the effectiveness and challenges in preventing re-establishment malaria in China, propose response strategies, and provide references for consolidating the achievements of malaria elimination. Methods　The individual malaria case data and focus data from 2021 to 2023 in the "Information System for Infectious Disease Surveillance" and the "Information System for Parasitic Diseases Prevention and Control" were collected, and epidemiological characteristics and indicators for “1-3-7” were analyzed. Results　From 2021 to 2023, a total of 4 132 malaria cases were reported in 31 provinces and Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps, with mainly falciparum malaria (59.2%, 2 445/4 132). The national malaria epidemic reached a historical low of 799 cases in 2021, before rebounding significantly to 2 488 cases in 2023. The top five provinces for malaria cases were Yunnan, Guangdong, Henan, Sichuan, and Shandong, accounting for 49.4% of the total (2 043/4 132) cases. Except for two long incubation cases infected with P. malariae and one non-mosquito-transmitted case, the remaining cases were imported from abroad, mainly from African countries (81.7%, 3 374/4 129), with P. vivax malaria mainly coming from Myanmar (63.7%, 638/1 001). Malaria cases mainly occur in middle-aged men and migrant overseas workers. 142 severe cases and 21 deaths of malaria were reported. 81.8% (3 378/4 132) of malaria cases sought medical attention within 3 days of symptom onset, and the initial diagnosis institutions were mainly county-level, municipal, and provincial hospitals(77.2%), with an accuracy malaria diagnosis rate of above 80.0%. The completion rates of the malaria indicators for "1-3-7" were all above 90.0%. Conclusions　Since the malaria elimination in China, there has been no re-establishment of malaria, and the surveillance response capability has been maintained at a high level. However, the epidemic of imported malaria continued to rise, severely endangering public health in China, especially in areas such as the China-Myanmar border where the risk of re-establishment was high. Currently, it is necessary to further enhance the awareness of the key populations about timely medical consultation for malaria, as well as healthcare workers' vigilance, diagnostic capabilities, and awareness of timely referrals. Efforts should be maintained to investigate and manage epidemics, strengthen prevention and control in key areas such as the China-Myanmar border in Yunnan, and continuously consolidate elimination achievements.

Objective:To report the results of national surveillance on the distribution and antimicrobial resistance profile of clinical Gram-positive bacteria isolates from bloodstream infections in China in 2022.Methods:The clinical isolates of Gram-positive bacteria from blood cultures in member hospitals of National Bloodstream Infection Bacterial Resistant Investigation Collaborative System（BRICS）were collected during January 2022 to December 2022. Antibiotic susceptibility tests were conducted by agar dilution or broth dilution methods recommended by Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute（CLSI）. WHONET 5.6 and SPSS 25.0 software were used to analyze the data.Results:A total of 3 163 strains of Gram-positive pathogens were collected from 51 member units，and the top five bacteria were Staphylococcus aureus（ n=1 147，36.3%），coagulase-negative Staphylococci（ n=928，29.3%）， Enterococcus faecalis（ n=369，11.7%）， Enterococcus faecium（ n=296，9.4%）and alpha-hemolyticus Streptococci（ n=192，6.1%）. The detection rates of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus（MRSA）and methicillin-resistant coagulase-negative Staphylococci（MRCNS）were 26.4%（303/1 147）and 66.7%（619/928），respectively. No glycopeptide and daptomycin-resistant Staphylococci were detected. The sensitivity rates of Staphylococcus aureus to cefpirome，rifampin，compound sulfamethoxazole，linezolid，minocycline and tigecycline were all >95.0%. Enterococcus faecium was more prevalent than Enterococcus faecalis. The resistance rates of Enterococcus faecium to vancomycin and teicoplanin were both 0.5%（2/369），and no vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium was detected. The detection rate of MRSA in southern China was significantly lower than that in other regions（ χ2=14.578， P=0.002），while the detection rate of MRCNS in northern China was significantly higher than that in other regions（ χ2=15.195， P=0.002）. The detection rates of MRSA and MRCNS in provincial hospitals were higher than those in municipal hospitals（ χ2=13.519 and 12.136， P<0.001）. The detection rates of MRSA and MRCNS in economically more advanced regions（per capita GDP≥92 059 Yuan in 2022）were higher than those in economically less advanced regions（per capita GDP<92 059 Yuan）（ χ2=9.969 and 7.606， P=0.002和0.006）. Conclusions:Among the Gram-positive pathogens causing bloodstream infections in China， Staphylococci is the most common while the MRSA incidence decreases continuously with time；the detection rate of Enterococcus faecium exceeds that of Enterococcus faecalis. The overall prevalence of vancomycin-resistant Enterococci is still at a low level. The composition ratio of Gram-positive pathogens and resistant profiles varies slightly across regions of China，with the prevalence of MRSA and MRCNS being more pronounced in provincial hospitals and areas with a per capita GDP≥92 059 yuan.
