Objective: To investigate the epidemiological and spatio-temporal characteristics of influenza in Jiaxing City, Zhejiang Province, so as to provide insights into perfecting the prevention and control strategies of influenza. Methods: Data of influenza in Jiaxing City from 2019 to 2023 were collected from the Chinese Disease Prevention and Control Information System. Population data of the same period were collected from the Zhejiang Health Information Network Reporting System. The epidemiological characteristics of influenza were analyzed using descriptive analysis. Vector map information was collected from the Open Street Map, and the spatio-temporal clustering characteristics of influenza were analyzed using spatial autocorrelation and spatio-temporal scanning. Results: A total of 181 501 cases of influenza were reported in Jiaxing City from 2019 to 2023, with an average annual reported incidence of 653.93/105. The majority of cases were aged 5 to <15 years (59 785 cases, 32.94%). The majority of the occupations were students (78 239 cases, 43.11%) and pre-school children (33 715 cases, 18.58%). The county (city, district) with the highest reported incidence was Haining City (1 451.70/105), and the town (street) with the highest reported incidence was Chang'an Town (1 932.78/105). Spatial autocorrelation analysis showed that the incidence of influenza in Jiaxing City from 2019 to 2023 had positive spatial correlations (all Moran's I>0, all P<0.05), with a high-high clustering in the southern region. Spatio-temporal scanning analysis showed that there was a spatio-temporal clustering of influenza in Jiaxing City from 2019 to 2023, with the southern region being the primary-type clustering area and the period between November and January of the following year being the clustering time. Conclusion There was a significant spatio-temporal clustering of influenza in Jiaxing City from 2019 to 2023, with winter being the peak season and the southern region being the primary area.

The Consolidated Standards of Reporting Trials (CONSORT) statement aims to enhance the quality of reporting for randomized controlled trial (RCT) by providing a minimum item checklist. It was first published in 1996, and updated in 2001 and 2010, respectively. The latest version was released in April 2025, continuously reflecting new evidence, methodological advancements, and user feedback. CONSORT 2025 includes 30 essential checklist items and a template for a participant flow diagram. The main changes to the checklist include the addition of 7 items, revision of 3 items, and deletion of 1 item, as well as the integration of multiple key extensions. This article provides a comprehensive interpretation of the statement, aiming to help clinical trial staff, journal editors, and reviewers fully understand the essence of CONSORT 2025, correctly apply it in writing RCT reports and evaluating RCT quality, and provide guidance for conducting high-level RCT research in China.

Objective This study aimed to investigate the effects of Aβ3-10KLH active immunization on brain aging in the SAMP8 rapid aging mouse model using oxidative stress as the entry point.Methods SAMP8 mice were immunized with the Aβ3-10KLH vaccine,and a control group was established.Behavioral changes were observed using the Morris water maze test,and hippocampal morphological changes were examined using hematoxylin and eosin staining.The proportion of senescent cells in the hippocampus was detected using SA-β-gal staining.Biochemical kits were used to measure the changes in oxidative stress injury indicators malondialdehyde(MDA)and superoxide dismutase(SOD)activities to assess oxidative stress damage in the hippocampus.Results The Aβ3-10KLH vaccine attenua-ted cellular aging in the hippocampi of SAMP8 mice.It also improved memory ability(P＜0.05),ameliorated hippocampal tissue mor-phology,decreased the proportion of senescent cells in the hippocampus(P＜0.05),lowered MDA content(P＜0.05),and upregulated SOD activity(P＜0.05).Conclusion The Aβ3-10KLH vaccine significantly improves cognitive function in SAMP8 mice,slows down the aging of hippocampal neurons,and reduces oxidative stress damage.

Objective:To analyze the clinical characteristics of patients with spontaneous splenorenal shunt (SSRS) in liver cirrhosis, and to compare the effects and prognosis of different treatments.Methods:The data of cirrhotic patients with SSRS at the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University between 2016-2022 were retrospectively analyzed.Patients were divided into Group A receiving conservative treatment, Group B by simple embolization, Group C undergoing TIPS combined with embolization, and Group D given liver transplantation. Life status, liver function changes, incidences of adverse events, and survival between groups were compared.Results:SSRS diameter was positively correlated with blood ammonia ( R=0.478) and negatively correlated with portal vein diameter ( R=-0.301). SSRS diameter is a protective factor for gastrointestinal hemorrhage and ascites and a risk factor for hepatic encephalopathy; Blood ammonia decreased and prothrombin time prolonged after treatment in group A ( P<0.05), blood ammonia decreased and albumin increased in group B ( P<0.05). Hemoglobin and bilirubin increased in group C ( P<0.05), blood ammonia and bilirubin decreased and platelets and albumin increased in group D ( P<0.05); Survival analysis showed that the prognosis of groups A and C was related to liver function, and the survival rate of group D was the highest of all ( P<0.05). Conclusions:SSRS embolization is safe and effective, and liver transplantation improves patient survival. Individualized treatment should be selected based on patient symptoms, liver function, and shunt diameter.

Objective:To investigate the impact of circular RanGTPase activating protein 1 (circRANGAP1) on the biological behavior of trophoblast cells in preeclampsia and its potential mechanisms.Methods:Placental tissues were collected from preeclampsia patients and age- and gestational age- matched control pregnant women admitted to Shengjing Hospital of China Medical University from August 2020 to December 2022 (eight cases each in the early-onset preeclampsia group and early-onset control group, and 24 cases each in the late-onset preeclampsia group and late-onset control group). The expression levels of circRANGAP1 and eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4A3 (EIF4A3) mRNA in placental tissues were detected by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR), and EIF4A3 protein expression was assessed by Western blotting. In HTR-8/Svneo cells, the proliferation, migration, and invasion abilities were evaluated by cell counting assay, scratch assay, Transwell invasion assay, and the regulatory effect of EIF4A3 on circRANGAP1 was examined by RNA binding protein immunoprecipitation (RIP). Changes of circRANGAP1 expression in HTR-8/Svneo cells were detected by RT-qPCR after EIF4A3 knockdown. Statistical analysis was performed using independent sample t-test, non-parametric Chi-square test, or Pearson correlation analysis. Results:(1) There was no significant difference in circRANGAP1 expression between the early-onset preeclampsia group and the early-onset control group. However, circRANGAP1 expression was higher in the late-onset preeclampsia group compared to the late-onset control group [(3.764±3.297) vs. (0.960±0.720), t=4.07, P<0.001]. In late-onset preeclampsia patients, circRANGAP1 expression was positively correlated with both systolic and diastolic blood pressure (systolic: r=0.639, P<0.01; diastolic: r=0.800, P<0.001). There was no significant difference in EIF4A3 mRNA and protein expression between the early-onset preeclampsia group and the early-onset control group, but EIF4A3 mRNA and protein expression were higher in the late-onset preeclampsia group compared to the late-onset control group [mRNA: (2.963±3.081) vs. (1.149±0.667), t=2.30, P=0.028; protein: (2.504±1.008) vs. (0.258±0.180), t=4.39, P=0.005]. (2) After small interfering (si) RNA knockdown, there was no significant difference in mRANGAP1 expression, but circRANGAP1 expression decreased [(1.000±0.004), (0.465±0.031), and (0.621±0.030)], with si-1 showing the highest knockdown efficiency ( t=23.59, P=0.002). Specific knockdown of circRANGAP1 resulted in increased proliferation [(1.297±0.058) vs. (1.456±0.030), t=－5.97, P<0.001], invasion [(94.400± 6.504) vs. (219.000±19.870), t=－13.32, P<0.001], and migration [(25.493±3.498)% vs. (58.456±3.277)%, t=－15.38, P<0.001] abilities of trophoblast cells. (3) There are six binding sites for EIF4A3 in the upstream region of circRANGAP1 pre-mRNA. EIF4A3 can bind through regions a and b, but not region c. After siRNA knockdown, EIF4A3 expression decreased [(1.003±0.101), (0.276±0.060), (0.398±0.074), and (0.184±0.017)], with si-3 showing the highest knockdown efficiency. After EIF4A3 knockdown, circRANGAP1 expression in trophoblast cells decreased [(1.004±0.118) vs. (0.480±0.039), t=5.96, P=0.027]. Conclusion:circRANGAP1, regulated by EIF4A3, inhibits the proliferation, migration, and invasion abilities of trophoblast cells, thereby participating in the pathogenesis of preeclampsia.

Objective:This was a retrospective study to analyze the risk factors for death in patients with acute myocardial infarction complicated with cardiogenic shock(AMICS) under mechanical circulatory support(MCS).Methods:This study included 234 patients with AMICS who were admitted to Anzhen Hospital in Beijing from January 2018 to January 2024.Among them, 79 cases died and 155 cases survived. 117 patients received MCS after percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI)(defined as delayed MCS treatment). Baseline and clinical data of patients in the death group and the survival group were compared to analyze the potential risk factors that may affect death.Results:Statistical analysis showed that higher white blood cell count( OR=1.017, P=0.003, 95% CI: 1.005-1.028), higher arterial lactate level( OR=2.021, P<0.001, 95% CI: 1.463-2.794), three-vessel coronary artery disease( OR=3.179, P<0.001, 95% CI: 1.679-6.019), delayed MCS treatment( OR=4.691, P=0.001, 95% CI: 1.955-11.258), MCS assisted aortic balloon counterpulsation alone(IABP)( OR=4.140, P<0.001, 95% CI: 2.230-7.786)were independent risk factors for in-hospital mortality in AMICS patients under mechanical circulatory support. The arterial lactate level were shown to be predictive of death in patients with AMICS assisted by MCS, and an area under the receiving operating characteristic curve of 0.719, P<0.001, 95% CI: 0.667-0.770, the maximum Youden index was 0.395, and the cutoff value of 5.05 mmol/L. Conclusion:Higher number of white blood cells, high arterial lactate level(>5.05 mmol/L), three-vessel coronary artery disease, delayed MCS treatment, and McS-assisted aortic balloon counterpulsation alone were independent risk factors for mortality in patients with McS-assisted AMICS.

Wound healing is a complex process of biological integration in which the adverse conditions such as excessive inflammatory reactions, cell proliferation and migration disorders, and cellular secretion impairment can lead to refractory wounds. Characterized by complex etiology, protracted condition, and high morbidity and recurrence rate, refractory wounds severely impair patients′ physical and mental health. In clinical practice, refractory wounds are primarily treated with surgical debridement and skin transplantation, but there still exist problems such as large surgical wounds, prolonged recovery time, and high recurrence rate. In recent years, owing to the multipotent differentiation, immunomodulatory, and paracrine functions of stem cells, cell-assisted lipotransfer (CAL) technique, which involves intra-body injection of a mixture of autologous adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) and granular fat for refractory wound repair, has demonstrated promising application prospects. It is of great significance in its clinical application to clarify the mechanism of effects of CAL technique in refractory wound repair. The authors reviewed the research progress in the mechanism of effects of CAL technique in repairing refractory wounds to provide references for the research and treatment of refractory wounds.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the effects of anlotinib on the malignant phenotype of glioma cells by regulating the nuclear factor-κB （NF-κB） signaling pathway. METHODS Human glioma T98G cells were cultured in vitro， and 5-fluorouracil was used as positive control to investigate the effects of different concentrations of anlotinib （5， 10， 20 μmol/L） on the ability of proliferation， adhesion， migration and invasion， the expressions of epithelial-mesenchymal transition （EMT） related proteins [E-cadherin， N-cadherin， vimentin and fibronectin （FN）]. NF- κB signaling pathway inhibitor （BAY 11-7082） and activator （prostratin） were additionally used to verify the possible mechanism of the above effects of anlotinib. RESULTS Anlotinib with 5， 10， 20 μmol/L could significantly decrease the activity of cell proliferation （except for 5 μmol/L anlotinib group）， migration rate， and the number of adherent cells and invasive cells， could significantly up-regulate the expression of E-cadherin protein while down-regulate the expressions of N-cadherin， vimentin and FN protein （P＜0.05）； the effect of 20 μmol/L anlotinib was similar to that of positive control （P＞0.05）. Compared with 10 μmol/L anlotinib， pathway inhibitor could significantly decrease the ability of proliferation， adhesion， migration and invasion， and the expressions of N-cadherin， vimentin， FN and phosphorylated NF-κB p65 protein， while could significantly up-regulate the expression of E-cadherin protein （P＜0.05）； above indexes were reversed significantly by pathway activator （P＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS Anlotinib may inhibit the proliferation， adhesion， migration and invasion of human glioma T98G cells， which may be associated with the inhibition of the NF-κB signaling pathway， thus inhibiting cell EMT-like processes.

Objective:To compare the clinical outcomes between percutaneous Kirschner wire leverage plus plaster fixation and elastic intramedullary nailing in the treatment of radial neck fractures in children.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted to analyze the 60 children with radial neck fracture who had been treated by percutaneous Kirschner wire leverage plus plaster fixation at Department of Pediatric Orthopedics, Children's Hospital of Soochow University from January 2016 to July 2023 (set as an internal fixation-free group). They were 30 males and 30 females (34 left and 26 right sides) with an age of (7.7±3.0) years. At the same time, another cohort of 60 patients were chosen as an intramedullary nailing group who had been treated by percutaneous Kirschner wire leverage plus elastic intramedullary nailing and matched in age and gender with those in the internal fixation-free group. The preoperative fracture angulation, operative time, hospitalization time, fracture angulation on the first postoperative day, fracture angulation at 1 month postoperatively, rate of angulation loss after reduction, Mayo elbow performance score (MEPS) at the last follow-up and complications were compared between the 2 groups.Results:There was no significant difference between the 2 groups in their preoperative general data, showing comparability ( P<0.05). The 120 pediatric patients were followed up for (7.5±3.2) months. The operative time [(27.4±15.0) min] and hospitalization time [(3.4±1.9) d] in the internal fixation-free group were significantly shorter than those in the intramedullary nailing group [(45.4±13.5) min and (4.4±1.3) d] ( P<0.05). The preoperative fracture angulation (50.8°±1.9°), fracture angulation on the first postoperative day (11.3°±1.2°), fracture angulation at 1 month postoperatively (12.1°±1.3°), rate of angulation loss after reduction (2.9%±0.5%), and MEPS at the last follow-up [(90.4±2.0) points] in the internal fixation-free group showed no significant differences from those in the intramedullary nailing group [49.5°±1.7°, 11.1°±1.2°, 13.3°±1.5°, 3.9%±1.4%, and (90.2±2.3) points] ( P>0.05). None of the patients in the internal fixation-free group developed pin-tail irritation sign or premature epiphyseal closure after surgery, whereas 3 patients in the intramedullary nailing group developed pin-tail irritation sign and 2 ones premature epiphyseal closure after surgery, showing a significant difference in the complication rate between the 2 groups [0 (0/60) versus 8.3% (5/60)] ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Percutaneous Kirschner wire leverage plus plaster fixation and close elastic intramedullary nailing can both achieve satisfactory outcomes in the treatment of radial neck fractures in children. However, percutaneous Kirschner wire leverage plus plaster fixation needs shorter operative time and hospitalization time, leads to fewer complications, and requires no reoperation to remove internal fixation.

Objective: To study the relationship between sugar sweetened beverages consumption characteristics and insomnia of college students in Yunnan Province, so as to provide evidence for sleep quality improvement of college students. Methods: A cluster random sampling method was used to select 2 515 college students from two universities (Kunming University and Dali Nursing Vocational College) in Kunming and Dali in Yunnan Province for a longitudinal study, including baseline survey (T1, November 2021) and three follow up surveys (T2: June 2022, T3: November 2022, T4: June 2023). Sugar sweetened beverages consumption of college students was collected by Semi quantitative Food Frequency Questionnaire and insomnia was assessed by Insomnia Severity Index Scale. Sugarsweetened beverages consumption was analyzed by Kruskal-Wallis test. The Mann-Whiter U test and Kruskal-Wallis test were used to compare the detection rate of insomnia in college students with different population characteristics, and the generalized estimating equations model was established to analyze the association between sugar sweetened beverages consumption and insomnia. Results: The reported rate of insomnia among college students from T1 to T4 was 21.2%, 23.6%, 30.5 % and 36.0%, respectively. The median of sugar sweetened beverages consumption per week was 5 (1,9) bottles per person, and there were significant differences in sugar sweetened beverages (carbonated beverages, fruit beverages, tea beverages, milk beverages, energy beverages) consumption among college students with different insomnia status ( χ 2=42.91, 23.67, 29.98, 61.70, 30.82, P <0.01). The analysis of the generalized estimating equation model revealed that the consumption of carbonated beverages ( β= 0.04, 95%CI =0.00-0.08) and the consumption of milk beverages among college students ( β=0.04, 95%CI =0.00-0.09) were correlated with insomnia ( P <0.05). The stratified analysis indicated that consumption of carbonated beverages by female college students was associated with insomnia [ β(95%CI )=0.06(0.01-0.11)]; consumption of milk beverages among college students from middle income family was associated with insomnia [ β (95% CI )=0.05(0.00-0.10)], and consumption of carbonated beverages and fruit beverages from college students with high household economic status were both associated with insomnia [ β (95% CI )=0.35(0.23-0.46), 0.12(0.00-0.24)] ( P <0.05). Conclusion Sugar sweetened beverages, especially carbonated beverages, are associated with insomnia among college students in Yunnan Province.
