ObjectiveTo analyze the epidemiological and etiological characteristics of a cluster of human metapneumovirus (HMPV) infection in a kindergarten in Gongshu District of Hangzhou City in May 2024, and to provide reference for the prevention and control of similar outbreaks. MethodsAn on-site investigation was conducted using an epidemiological case investigation form. Throat swab specimens collected from cases were screened for 13 respiratory pathogens using real-time fluorescent polymerase chain reaction (PCR). For HMPV nucleic acid positive specimens, the F gene of HMPV was used as the target gene for amplification and sequencing. The sequencing results were then compared with sequences in GenBank database to determine the virus subtypes and perform phylogenetic analyses. ResultsThe outbreak occurred in a kindergarter junior class with a total of 28 preschoolers and 3 teachers and childcare workers. A total of 11 cases (10 preschoolers and 1 teacher) were identified, including 8 male cases and 3 female cases. Clinical manifestations included fever in all 11 cases (100.00%), cough in 8 cases (72.72%), catarrhal symptoms in 4 cases (36.36%), and headache in 3 cases (27.27%). All symptoms were mild, and no severe cases were observed. A total of 11 throat swab samples were collected. Real-time fluorescent PCR test results showed that 3 samples were positive for HMPV nucleic acid, 2 samples were positive for both HMPV and Streptococcus pneumoniae, and 1 sample was positive for both HMPV and rhinovirus. The sequences of the 6 HMPV nucleic acid positive specimens were amplified and analyzed using specific primers, and all were determined to be HMPV subtype A2b. The F gene fragment sequence showed the highest similarity to PV081665.1/Brazil/2024 (99.65%), and also exhibited high similarity to PP683455.1/Indonesia/2021 (99.48%), PV016275.1/Beijing/2024 (99.31%), and PV052230.1/USA/2024 (99.13%). ConclusionThis cluster of acute respiratory tract infection was caused by HMPV subtype A2b, with co-infection of rhinovirus and Streptococcus pneumoniae. The F gene fragment sequences of the HMPV in this outbreak were highly homologous to those of the A2b strains isolated from Brazil, Beijing, Indonesia, and the the United States.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the effects of baicalin （BC） on insulin resistance in rats with gestational diabetes mellitus （GDM） and its underlying mechanism based on the adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase （AMPK）/suppressor of variegation 3-9 homolog 1 （SUV39H1）/histone H3 lysine 9 trimethylation （H3K9me3） axis. METHODS A GDM rat model was established by a combination of a high-fat diet and streptozotocin injection. The successfully modeled rats were divided into the GDM group， BC low-dose group， BC high-dose group， and high-dose of BC+AMPK inhibitor （Compound C） group， with 10 rats in each group. Another 10 pregnant rats fed a normal diet served as the control group. Rats in each group were given corresponding drugs/normal saline intragastrically and/or intraperitoneally， once daily for 2 consecutive weeks. After the last administration， the levels of fasting blood glucose （FBG）， pancreatic function indexes [fasting insulin （FINS）， homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance （HOMA-IR）， insulin sensitivity index （ISI）]， blood lipid indexes （total cholesterol， triglyceride， low-density lipoprotein cholesterol）， liver function indexes （alanine transferase， aspartate transferase， alkaline phosphatase）， inflammatory indicators （C-reactive protein， interleukin-1β， interleukin-6）， metabolic regulatory protein [complement-C1q/tumor necrosis factor-related protein 3 （CTRP3）]， insulin sensitivity related factors [glucose transporter 4 （GLUT4）， adiponectin]， and oxidative stress indicators [superoxide dismutase （SOD）， catalase （CAT）， malondialdehyde （MDA）] were measured. Pathological changes in liver tissue were observed， and the expressions of proteins related to the AMPK/SUV39H1/H3K9me3 axis in liver tissue were detected. RESULTS Compared with the GDM group， rats in the BC low- and high-dose groups showed varying degrees of improvement in pathological changes such as disordered cell arrangement， vacuolar degeneration， lipid deposition， and inflammatory cell infiltration in liver tissue. Their FBG and FINS levels， HOMA-IR， the levels of blood lipid indexes， liver function indexes， inflammatory indicators and MDA， and the expressions of SUV39H1 and H3K9me3 were significantly decreased or down-regulated， while metabolic regulatory protein， insulin sensitivity-related factors and AMPK protein phosphorylation levels were significantly increased （ P ＜0.05）. The improvement was more significant in the BC high-dose group （ P ＜0.05）. Compound C could significantly reverse the ameliorative effects of high-dose BC on the above quantitative indicators （ P ＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS BC can significantly reduce oxidative stress and inflammatory responses， increase serum levels of CTRP3， GLUT4 and adiponectin， thereby improving insulin resistance in GDM rats. These effects may be related to the activation of AMPK and inhibition of SUV39H1-mediated H3K9me3 modification.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the current career development status and existing bottlenecks among graduates of clinical pharmacist training bases， and to provide evidence for optimizing the training system， enhancing trainees’ job competency， and promoting the sound development of the clinical pharmacy discipline. METHODS Graduates from a clinical pharmacist training base in a tertiary class A hospital were selected as survey subjects. A six-dimensional questionnaire was designed using “Wenjuanxing” platform， distributed and collected via a mobile APP and E-mail. The survey analyzed participants’ basic characteristics， the impact of training on their professional roles， as well as their satisfaction regarding professional sentiment， competence， career status， professional recognition， the current state of the clinical pharmacist workforce， and the teaching model of the training base. The reliability of the questionnaire responses was assessed using Cronbach’s α coefficient. RESULTS A total of 164 questionnaires were distributed， and 147 valid responses were recovered， yielding a valid response rate of 89.63%. The Cronbach’s α coefficient for the questionnaire content was 0.943. The surveyed trainees were primarily employed at general hospitals （81.63%） and tertiary class A hospitals （72.11%）， with women constituting the majority （79.59%）. Their ages were concentrated between 26 and 35 years old （63.27%）， and most of them were supervising pharmacists（59.86%）. After training， 96.60% of graduates returned to their original institutions， and the proportion working in clinical pharmacist positions increased from 52.38% to 84.35%. Trainees’ overall satisfaction rate with the training model was 84.35%. However， their satisfaction with innovation and research capacity in clinical pharmacy was only 42 .18%， the satisfaction with salary and benefits was 35.37%， and the satisfaction with both occupational recognition and rationality of staffing was less than 50%. CONCLUSIONS Clinical pharmacist training bases can effectively promote trainees’ career transition， enhance job competency， and stabilize the talent pool among trainees. Nonetheless， the profession still faces bottlenecks such as relatively weak research capacity， low compensation， insufficient professional recognition， and unreasonable staffing. These issues require a multi-pronged， collaborative approach involving the optimization of training systems， the enhancement of career support， and the improvement of industry policies.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the current status of informatization tools applied to antimicrobial stewardship in county hospitals in China， and to provide a reference for promoting the informatization development of antimicrobial stewardship in county hospitals.METHODS From August to September 2025， an online questionnaire survey was conducted among 1 007 county hospitals across 31 provinces（autonomous regions， and municipalities） in China. The survey focused on the application of four types of informatization tools：the real-time monitoring system for antimicrobial use， the pre-prescription review system， the irrational use warning system， and the electronic prescription evaluation system（hereinafter referred to as the “monitoring system”“review system”“warning system”“evaluation system”，respectively）. Correlation analysis and binary Logistic regression analysis were employed to explore the influencing factors.RESULTS Of the county hospitals， 80.83% were equipped with at least one type of informatization tool for antimicrobial stewardship， while 19.17% had no relevant tool. Only 18.87% of the hospitals were equipped with all four types of tools. The monitoring system exhibited the highest equipped rate （70.80%）， whereas the warning system was equipped in only 33.96% of the hospitals. Four types of tools are evenly and adequately deployed in the eastern region， the central and western regions have far lower deployment rates of intervention tools including review system and warning system， accompanied by prominent intra-provincial gaps. The total number of the health technicians， hospital grade， and prescription review rate of outpatient antibacterial drug were significantly and positively correlated with the deployment rates of the four informatization tools （ P ＜0.05）. The results of the Logistic regression model fitting indicated that the model of the review system was rated “excellent” [area under the receiver operating characteristic curve （AUC）＝0.81]， and the model of the warning system was rated “further improvement” （AUC＝0.67）. The total number of health technicians was significantly positively correlated with the deployment rates of all four types of informatization tools （all P ＜0.05）.CONCLUSIONS The informatization of antimicrobial stewardship in county hospitals in China remains in the initial stage of transitioning from “passive statistics” to “active prevention and control”， with challenges such as structural imbalance and regional disparities. In the future， differentiated support strategies should be implemented， the allocation of resources should be optimized， to enhance the level of refined antimicrobial stewardship.

Objective The present study aimed to evaluate the clinical efficacy of hydraulic sinus floor elevation for the treatment of insufficient bone height in the posterior maxilla through a systematic review and Meta-analysis, so as to provide evidence for clinical practice. Methods Databases including PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, and Clinical Trials.gov were searched up to May 2025. Randomized controlled trials, non-randomized controlled trials, cohort studies, cross-sectional studies, and case-control studies that involved patients receiving hydraulic sinus floor elevation with simultaneous or delayed implant placement were included. Exclusion criteria comprised in vitro studies, animal experiments, narrative reviews, unpublished data, commentaries or expert opinions, studies with unclear sample sizes, and publications without full-text access or unavailable outcome data. Three investigators independently performed literature screening and quality assessment. A single-arm Meta-analysis was conducted using Stata 18.0 for studies meeting the inclusion criteria. The outcome measures were the incidence of sinus membrane perforation, implant survival rate, and endo-sinus bone gain. The Cochrane Risk of Bias 2 (RoB2) tool and the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) critical appraisal checklist were used to assess the methodological quality of randomized controlled trials and non-randomized controlled trials, respectively. The overall certainty of evidence was assessed using the GRADE（Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation）system. Results Nineteen studies with 982 patients, 1 151 elevated sites, and 1 263 implants were finally included. The Meta-analysis showed that the intraoperative sinus membrane perforation rate of hydraulic sinus floor elevation was 2.0% [ES = 0.02, 95% CI (0.00, 0.04)] (18 studies, 1 061 sites); the implant survival rate was 99.0% [ES = 0.99, 95% CI (0.97, 1.00)] (17 studies, 1 253 implants); and the mean vertical bone gain was 7.80 mm. For this outcome, heterogeneity among studies was extremely high (I2 = 98.6%), thus only descriptive analysis was performed. Egger's test revealed no significant publication bias for the three outcomes. GRADE grading indicated very low certainty of evidence for mucosal perforation, implant survival rate, and endo sinus bone gain. Conclusion Current preliminary evidence suggests that hydraulic sinus lift may be a safe minimally invasive technique, but the evidence is very low, and more high quality, long term follow up randomized controlled clinical trials are still needed for further verification.

ObjectiveTo investigate the mechanism underlying the weight loss effect of electrothermal acupuncture （ETA） in diet-induced obese （DIO） model mice based on the hypoxia-inducible factor-1α （HIF-1α）/sphingosine-1-phosphate （S1P）sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor 3 （S1PR3） signaling pathway-mediated macrophage polarization. MethodsAn obesity mouse model was established by continuously feeding at a high-fat diet （HFD） for 8 weeks. Twenty successfully modeled obese mice were randomly divided into a model group and an electrothermal acupuncture （ETA） group with 10 mice per group， both of which continued to receive the HFD till week 12. Another 10 mice were assigned to the normal group and fed a standard chow diet continuously for 12 weeks. Starting from week 9 of the experiment， mice in the ETA group received electrothermal acupuncture stimulation at Zhongwan （CV12）， bilateral Tianshu （ST25）， and bilateral Zusanli （ST36） for 30 minutes per session， with the instrument current set at （40±0.5）mA and a constant temperature of （40±0.5）℃. Mice in the normal group and the model group were restrained in the same manner for 30 minutes without acupuncture. All interventions were performed once every other day for a total of 4 weeks. Ten hours after the final intervention， the body weight， waist circumference， and body length of mice in each group were measured， and Lee's index was calculated. Serum biochemical analysis was performed to assess fasting blood glucose （FBG）， total cholesterol （TC）， triglycerides （TG）， high-density lipoprotein cholesterol （HDL-C）， low-density lipoprotein cholesterol （LDL-C）， alanine aminotransferase （ALT）， aspartate aminotransferase （AST）， blood urea nitrogen （BUN）， and creatinine （Cr）. Serum leptin （LEP） and adiponectin （ADPN） levels， as well as sphingosine-1-phosphate （S1P） levels in epididymal white adipose tissue （eWAT）， were detected by ELISA. Histomorphological changes in eWAT were monitored via HE staining. Flow cytometry was used to analyze macrophage subtype-related indexes in eWAT， including the total proportion of macrophages， the proportion of M1 macrophages， the proportion of M2 macrophages， and the M1/M2 ratio. Antibody array technology was used to determine the levels of differentially expressed inflammatory factors in eWAT between the model and blank groups， as well as between the ETA and model groups. Western blot and qPCR were used to detect the protein and mRNA expression levels of HIF-1α and S1PR3 in the eWAT， respectively. ResultsCompared to the normal group， the model group showed significantly increased body weight， Lee's index， waist circumference， and FBG， TC， TG， HDL-C， LDL-C， AST， and ALT levels， upgraded LEP and S1P levels， decreased ADPN level and ADPN/LEP ratio， elevated proportion of M1 macrophages and the M1/M2 ratio， reduced proportion of M2 macrophages， and upregulated protein and mRNA expression levels of HIF-1α and S1PR3 （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. With the exception of HDL-C， all the abovementioned indicators in the ETA group were significantly improved compared to the model group （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. Analysis of differentially expressed inflammatory cytokines revealed that， compared to the normal group， the levels of interleukin-1β （IL-1β）， interferon-γ （IFN-γ）， interleukin-6 （IL-6）， and interleukin-12p70 （IL-12p70） in the eWAT of the model group were elevated； conversely， the levels of interleukin-17 （IL-17）， interleukin-5 （IL-5）， IL-6， and interleukin-23 （IL-23） in the eWAT of the ETA group decreased compared to the model group （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. ConclusionETA exerts a weight-reducing effect in obese model mice， and the mechanism may involve inhibition of the HIF-1α/S1P/S1PR3 signaling pathway activation， which shifts macrophage polarization from the M1 to M2 phenotype， thereby alleviating chronic inflammation.

AIM: To investigate the epidemiological characteristics and changing trends of myopia among children and adolescents in Bijie from 2021 to 2025, and to provide scientific evidence for formulating regional myopia prevention and control strategies.METHODS:This was a longitudinal cross-sectional study. Stratified cluster sampling method was used to select students from 48 primary schools, 25 middle schools, and 8 high schools from urban and rural districts and counties of Bijie. From 2021 to 2025, annual examinations were performed, including uncorrected visual acuity, corrected visual acuity, corneal curvature, refractive error, axial length, and fundus examination. Questionnaires were also administered to collect information on visual health-related influencing factors. Myopia was defined as spherical equivalent refraction(SE)≤-0.50 D under non-cycloplegic autorefraction. The multivariate logistic regression model was used to analyze the myopia status and its influencing factors among children and adolescents.RESULTS: From 2021 to 2025, the age- and sex-standardized myopia prevalence rates among children and adolescents in Bijie were 42.37%, 44.57%, 47.32%, 49.98%, and 52.91%, respectively, showing a significant upward trend year by year(P<0.001). The overall standardized myopia prevalence rate was 47.61%. The myopia rate increased with higher educational stage, and the differences were statistically significant(P<0.001). The myopia rates in girls were higher than those in boys over the 5 y, with statistically significant differences(P<0.001). Multivariable logistic regression analysis identified gender(female vs male: OR=1.17, 95%CI: 1.15-1.19), school stage(junior high school vs primary school: OR=2.14, 95%CI: 2.09-2.19; senior high school vs primary school: OR=3.60, 95%CI: 3.53-3.68), daily outdoor activity time <2 h(OR=3.25, 95%CI: 2.98-3.54), both parents with myopia(OR=2.87, 95%CI: 2.63-3.13), daily near work time ≥4 h(OR=2.56, 95%CI: 2.35-2.79), electronic screen use ≥2 h/d(OR=2.18, 95%CI: 2.01-2.37), incorrect reading and writing posture(OR=3.94, 95%CI: 3.87-4.02), residence in a karst landform region(OR=1.32, 95%CI: 1.18-1.48), and absence of professional equipment in school vision screening(OR=1.27, 95%CI: 1.15-1.41)as risk factors for myopia(all P<0.001).CONCLUSION: From 2021 to 2025, the myopia rate among children and adolescents in Bijie shows an increasing trend, indicating a severe situation for myopia prevention and control, with tendencies toward younger age of onset and higher myopia. It is necessary to establish a prevention and control system led by the government, with multi-departmental collaboration and school-family linkage, and to carry out targeted health education and intervention measures.

Objective : To investigate the status of electronic cigarette use and its influencing factors among residents aged ≥15 years in Chengdu City in 2021 and 2024, so as to provide the evidence for optimizing electronic cigarette control strategies. Methods: Two rounds of cross-sectional surveys were conducted in 2021 and 2024. Multi-stage cluster random sampling method was used to select permanent residents aged ≥15 years in Chengdu City as survey subjects. The Chinese Adult Tobacco Survey Questionnaire was used to collect information on gender, age, and electronic cigarette use. Complex sampling weighting was used to calculate the rate of electronic cigarette use and the proportion of reasons for electronic cigarette use. A complex sampling multivariable logistic regression model was used to analyze the influencing factors for electronic cigarette use. Results: A total of 7 950 and 6 920 people were surveyed in 2021 and 2024, respectively, including 3 868 and 3 653 males (48.65% and 52.79%), and 4 082 and 3 267 females (51.35% and 47.21%), respectively. The rate of electronic cigarette use in 2024 was lower than in 2021 (2.29% vs. 3.15%, P<0.05). In 2024, the rates of electronic cigarette use were lower in males, rural areas, people aged 15-<45 years, educational level of bachelor' s degree or above, occupation in government/public institutions or occupation in enterprises/commercial/service industries, and current smokers compared with 2021, while the rate of electronic cigarette use was higher in residents aged ≥65 years compared with 2021 (all P<0.05). In 2021 and 2024, the main reasons for electronic cigarette use were smoking cessation and the belief that electronic cigarettes are less harmful. Smoking cessation accounted for 27.78% and 23.28%, and the belief that electronic cigarettes are less harmful accounted for 24.26% and 22.10%, respectively. Complex sampling multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that age (15-<25 years, OR=15.682, 95%CI: 5.660-43.450; 25-<45 years, OR=7.463, 95%CI: 2.987-18.647; 45-<65 years, OR=3.425, 95%CI: 1.562-7.510), educational level (bachelor' s degree or above, OR=2.916, 95%CI: 1.444-5.891), and smoking (current, OR=23.992, 95%CI: 8.182-70.353; former, OR=20.393, 95%CI: 6.150-67.624) were influencing factors for electronic cigarette use in 2021. Gender (male, OR=2.279, 95%CI: 1.074-4.832), age (25-<45 years, OR=2.114, 95%CI: 1.148-3.892), educational level (high school/vocational high school/technical secondary school, OR=2.792, 95%CI: 1.414-5.514; bachelor' s degree or above, OR=3.321, 95%CI: 1.567-7.039), occupation (unemployed, retired, and retired, OR=0.449, 95%CI: 0.226-0.892), and smoking (current, OR=10.547, 95%CI: 5.563-19.994; former, OR=8.998, 95%CI: 3.833-21.125) were influencing factors for electronic cigarette use in 2024. Conclusions Compared with 2021, the rate of electronic cigarette use among residents in Chengdu City decreased in 2024. Young people, males, bachelor' s degree or above, and current smokers are the key populations for electronic cigarette control. The cognitive bias held by residents that electronic cigarette can aid in smoking cessation and pose minimal harm needs to be corrected.

AIM To establish an HPLC-MS/MS method for the simultaneous residue determination of 11 plant growth regulators(PGRs)in Renshen Guben preparations,and to conduct a risk assessment.METHODS The analysis was performed on a 40 ℃ thermostatic ACQUITY UPLC ? Waters HSS T3 column(2.1 mm×100 mm,1.8 μm),with the mobile phase of acetonitrile-0.1％formic acid(containing 5 mmol/L ammonium formate)flowing at 0.30 mL/min in a gradient elution manner,and electro spray ionization was employed in both positive and negative ion scanning,with multiple reaction monitoring mode.The chronic and acute exposure risk values of the detected PGRs were calculated and assessed based on residue levels,health guidance values,and exposure estimates.RESULTS Eleven PGRs exhibited good linear relationships within their own ranges(R2 ≥ 0.990),whose average recoveries were 70.0％-120.0％,with RSDs all below 12.0％.In both oral liquid and pill forms,mepiquat chloride showed the highest average residue levels,while sodium 5-nitroguaiacolate exhibited the highest acute risk value(0.765 7,0.908 1)and chronic risk value(0.023 1,0.027 0).CONCLUSION Although PGRs residues are detected in Renshen Guben preparations,all levels remained within safe limits.
