Climate change has evolved from an environmental issue into a global public health crisis, posing severe challenges to healthcare systems. Issues such as shifts in patient disease patterns, increased care demands for vulnerable populations, and insufficient resilience in nursing systems are becoming increasingly prominent. As the frontline of healthcare delivery, nursing practice directly confronts multiple health risks triggered by climate change. Under the Healthy China 2030 strategy, the role of nursing in addressing climate change cannot be overlooked. Therefore, this paper systematically reviewed the impacts of climate change on nursing practice and corresponding domestic and international strategies, and proposed recommendations for localized development pathways. First, strengthen climate health literacy in nursing education by integrating the climate change system into curricula and clinical practice. Second, promote nursing policy participation in global health governance to establish a climate-adaptive nursing policy system with Chinese characteristics. Finally, establish a multidisciplinary nursing research framework to foster integration among nursing science, climate science, public health, traditional Chinese medicine, and other relevant fields. This paper aims to provide theoretical foundations for constructing a climate-adaptive nursing system with Chinese characteristics, thereby advancing the coordinated development of Healthy China initiative and climate governance.

ObjectiveTo investigate the epidemic trends, key populations, and high-risk area characteristics of hand-foot-mouth disease (HFMD) in Ningbo from 2018 to 2023, and to provide evidence-based references for optimizing prevention strategies and precise allocation of prevention and control resources. MethodsData on HFMD cases with current addresses in Ningbo from 2018 to 2023 were collected from the China Information System for Disease Control and Prevention. Descriptive epidemiological methods were used to analyze the epidemiological characteristics of HFMD. Global spatial autocorrelation analyses were applied to detect spatial clustering of HFMD, and spatiotemporal scan analyses were conducted to identify spatiotemporal clusters. ResultsA total of 116 967 HFMD cases, were reported of which 2 were severe and none were fatal. The average annual incidence rate was 206.33 per 100 000 population, showing an overall declining trend. Seasonal patterns were observed, with bimodal distributions in 2018, 2019, 2021, and 2022 (main peak from May to July; secondary peak from September to November), and unimodal distributions in 2020 (peak from October to December) and 2023 (peak from July to October). Children aged 5 years and under accounted for the majority of cases (104 634 cases, 89.46%), with a mean age of (3.48±3.29) years. The male-to-female ratio was 1.44∶1. Children cared for at home (56.39%) and those attending kindergarten (35.97%) were the predominant populations. The highest average incidence rate was observed in Ninghai County (261.46/100 000), and the lowest in Fenghua District (152.46/100 000), while the average incidence rates in most districts/counties ranged from 188.22 to 226.53 per 100 000 population. The highest incidence rate was observed in areas classified as urban-rural fringes (240.08 per 100 000 population). Spatial analyses revealed global clustering in 2020 (Moran’s I=0.35, P<0.05), with hotspots concentrated in Ninghai county and Xiangshan county. Spatiotemporal scan analyses identified significant clusters each year from 2018 to 2023. The strongest cluster was detected in Cixi City from May to September in 2018 (LLR=27 249.53, RR=13.06, P<0.01), followed by Yinzhou District from April to October in 2019 (LLR=25 172.16, RR=10.61, P<0.01). ConclusionThe overall incidence of HFMD in Ningbo City shows a declining trend. The disease shows bimodal (spring-summer and autumn-winter) or unimodal (autumn-winter) seasonal patterns. Cases are predominantly seen in boys aged 5 years and under, and who are cared for at home or attend kindergarten、 High-risk areas are concentrated in southern counties (Ninghai and Xiangshan). It is recommended to strengthen health education and vaccination coverage for children aged 5 years and under, and to implement dynamic surveillance and targeted interventions in key areas during high-incidence seasons, so as to reduce transmission and spread.

It is believed that Shengyang Yiwei Decoction (升阳益胃汤, SYD) is effective in regulating the flow of Qi (气), and can treat various diseases caused by the disorder of the spleen and stomach Qi. In clinical practice, based on the pathological characteristics of children often having insufficient spleen, and adhering to the principle of treating different diseases with the same method, the focus is placed on the core pathogenesis of spleen and stomach Qi disharmony. We use SYD in various pediatric conditions such as allergic rhinitis, post COVID-19 condition, urethral syndrome, and dysfunctional uterine bleeding in adolescence, and emphasize the treatment is flexibly tailored to the symptoms.

BACKGROUND:Rheumatoid arthritis is an inflammatory disease.Many studies have shown that wogonin has a good anti-inflammatory effect on rheumatoid arthritis,but its exact efficacy and specific mechanism of action remain to be clarified. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the mechanism of wogonin ameliorating joint inflammation by regulating endoplasmic reticulum stress pathway in rats with collagen-induced arthritis. METHODS:(1)At the animal level:Female Wistar rats were divided into healthy control group,arthritis model group and wogonin treatment group.Rat models of arthritis in the latter two groups were established by subcutaneous injection of bovine type Ⅱ collagen and adjuvant.In the wogonin group,wogonin was given by gavage for 28 consecutive days after modeling.During this period,the rats in each group were weighed,and arthritis score and ankle swelling were measured every 7 days.After the experiment,the pathological changes of the joint were observed,the mRNA and protein levels of endoplasmic reticulum stress pathway GRP78 and CHOP were detected by qRT-PCR,western blot,and immunohistochemistry.(2)At the cellular level,cell counting kit-8 was used to detect the cytotoxic effect of wogonin on fibroblast-like synoviocytes from rats with collagen-induced arthritis.The fibroblast-like synoviocytes induced by thapsigargin were treated with different concentrations of wogonin.The levels of interleukin-1β and tumor necrosis factor-α in the cell supernatant were detected by ELISA,and the intracellular reactive oxygen species in each group were determined by DCFH-DA probe method.The mRNA and protein levels of GRP78,IRE1α,XBP1s and CHOP were detected by qRT-PCR and western blot,respectively. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Compared with the healthy control group,arthritis index score and ankle swelling degree in the arthritis model group were increased(P<0.01),synovial hyperplasia,inflammatory cell infiltration,cartilage destruction and bone erosion were observed in pathological sections,and the mRNA and protein expressions of GRP78 and CHOP in the ankle were significantly increased(P<0.01),which were mainly located in synovial tissue and articular surface.Compared with the arthritis model group,the arthritis index score and ankle swelling degree in the wogonin treatment group were decreased(P<0.05),synovial hyperplasia and the number of inflammatory cells were decreased,cartilage destruction and bone erosion were alleviated,the mRNA and protein expression levels of GRP78 and CHOP in the ankle were decreased(P<0.05),particularly in synovial tissue and on the articular surface.There was no significant difference in body mass among the three groups(P>0.05).In the cell experiment,200 μmol/L wogonin significantly reduced the survival rate of fibroblast-like synoviocytes(P<0.01).Compared with the blank control group,the levels of interleukin-1β,tumor necrosis factor-α,content of reactive oxygen species,and mRNA and protein expression of GRP78,IRE1α,XBP1s,and CHOP in the thapsigargin group were significantly increased(P<0.05);compared with the thapsigargin group,50 and 100 μmol/L wogonin significantly reduced the levels of interleukin-1β and tumor necrosis factor-α in the cell supernatant(P<0.05,P<0.01),and 100 μmol/L wogonin significantly reduced the content of reactive oxygen species(P<0.01)and down-regulated the mRNA and protein expression levels of GRP78,IRE1α,XBP1s and CHOP(all P<0.05).These results suggest that wogonin can effectively alleviate joint inflammatory responses in rats with collagen-induced arthritis,and the endoplasmic reticulum stress pathway may be the key target of its intervention.

Objective:To investigate the risk factors for new adjacent vertebral fracture after percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP) in patients with osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture (OVCF) and their predictive efficacy.Methods:A retrospective cohort study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 476 OVCF patients admitted to The Affiliated Wuxi People′s Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from January 2018 to December 2024, including 74 males and 402 females, aged 49-91 years [71(65, 79)years]. Among them, 397 patients underwent single-level PKP, while 79 received multi-level PKP. Surgical segments involved T 6 in 9 patients, T 7 in 9, T 8 in 14, T 9 in 12, T 10 in 9, T 11 in 50, T 12 in 110, L 1 in 173, L 2 in 77, L 3 in 46, L 4 in 31, and L 5 in 13. The patients were divided into adjacent vertebral fracture group ( n=55) and non-adjacent vertebral fracture group ( n=421) according to whether adjacent vertebral fracture was observed during the follow-up. The following data were collected in both groups: gender, age, body mass index (BMI), bone mineral density T-value, underlying diseases (hypertension, diabetes, coronary heart disease), prior cerebral infarction, history of OVCF, long-term glucocorticoid use, thoracolumbar fracture, number of operated vertebrae, cement injection approach (unilateral or bilateral), mean cement dose, postoperative vertebral height restoration rate, postoperative Cobb angle correction, postoperative thoracolumbar kyphosis angle correction, and cement distribution score. Univariate and multivariate Logistic stepwise regression analysis were performed to assess and identify independent risk factors for adjacent vertebral fracture in OVCF patients after PKP. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and area under the curve (AUC) were used to evaluate the risk factors′ predictive performance for adjacent vertebral fracture in OVCF patients after PKP. Results:Univariate analysis revealed significant differences in age, bone mineral density T-value, history of OVCF, long-term glucocorticoid use, number of operated vertebrae, and cement distribution score between the two groups ( P<0.05). The multivariate Logistic stepwise regression analysis showed that the bone mineral density T-value ( OR=0.68, 95% CI 0.48, 0.95, P<0.05) and cement distribution score ( OR=0.61, 95% CI 0.49, 0.76, P<0.01) were significantly correlated with new adjacent vertebral fractures after PKP. The ROC curve analysis showed that bone cement distribution score showed better predictive performance (AUC=0.72, 95% CI 0.64, 0.79), compared with bone mineral density T-value (AUC=0.62, 95% CI 0.54, 0.70), while the combined predictive performance of the two factors was the best (AUC=0.75, 95% CI 0.68, 0.81). Conclusions:Bone mineral density T-value and cement distribution score are independent risk factors for new adjacent vertebral fracture in OVCF patients after PKP. The predictive performance of cement distribution score is proved to be good and can be better in combination with bone mineral density T-value.
