Objective: To analyze the mortality trend of chronic respiratory diseases in Lianyungang City, Jiangsu Province from 2011 to 2024, and predict the mortality from 2025 to 2029, so as to provide the evidence for developing forward-looking prevention and control strategies and targeted intervention measures. Methods: Chronic respiratory disease death surveillance data in Lianyungang City from 2011 to 2024 were collected through the Jiangsu Chronic Disease Management Information Platform. The crude mortality was calculated and standardized using the data of the Sixth National Population Census in 2010. Average annual percent change (AAPC) was used to analyze the mortality trends of chronic respiratory diseases by gender, region, and age in Lianyungang City from 2011 to 2024. The GM (1,1) grey model was established using the crude mortality of chronic respiratory diseases from 2011 to 2024 to predict the crude mortality of chronic respiratory diseases from 2025 to 2029. Results: From 2011 to 2024, the crude mortality and standardized mortality of chronic respiratory diseases in Lianyungang City were 52.20/105 and 36.57/105, respectively. The crude mortality and standardized mortality were 53.14/105 and 43.79/105 in males, respectively, which were higher than 51.17/105 and 30.14/105 in females (both P<0.05). The crude mortality and standardized mortality were 55.62/105 and 39.85/105 in rural areas, respectively, which were higher than 38.11/105 and 24.15/105 in urban areas (both P<0.05). From 2011 to 2024, the standardized mortality of chronic respiratory diseases showed downward trends in the total population, males, females, urban areas, and rural areas (AAPC=-6.956%, -5.175%, -8.659%, -4.290%, and -7.369%, all P<0.05). The crude mortality of chronic respiratory diseases in the total population showed an upward trend with increasing age (P<0.05), reaching a peak of 1 371.20/105 in the ≥80 years group. The top two causes of chronic respiratory disease deaths were chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and bronchial asthma, with 31 792 cases and 3 254 cases, accounting for 82.40% and 8.43%, respectively. The GM (1,1) grey model prediction results showed that the crude mortality of chronic respiratory diseases in the total population from 2025 to 2029 would be 37.91/105, 36.32/105, 34.80/105, 33.34/105, and 31.95/105, respectively (average relative error=8.76%). Conclusions From 2011 to 2024, the mortality of chronic respiratory diseases in Lianyungang City showed a downward trend. The risk of death from chronic respiratory diseases was higher in males, rural areas, and the elderly. It is predicted that the mortality of chronic respiratory diseases will decrease year by year from 2025 to 2029.

This study investigated the full-genome molecular characteristics of a rotavirus vaccine-derived strain,G1P[8]geno-type A group rotavirus RVA/Human-wt/CHN/HN1140/2021/G1P[8](referred to as HN1140).The gene fragments of the HN1140 strain were amplified with reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR)combined with whole-genome primers to obtain the full genome sequence.Genotyping was performed with the online genotyping tool RotaC 2.0,and similarity and genetic evolution analyses for each gene segment were conducted in DNAstar5.1 and MEGA11.0 software.The genotype of the HN1140 strain was deter-mined to be G1-P[8]-I2-R2-C2-M2-A3-N2-T6-E2-H3.Phylogenetic analysis demonstrated that all 11 genomic segments clus-tered closely with the RotaTeq vaccine strains,sharing 99.7%-100%nucleotide sequence similarity.Notably,VP1,VP2,VP6,and NSP2-NSP5 segments showed 100%nucleotide identity with RotaTeq strains.Comparative genomic analysis identified 13 nucleotide and 8 amino acid substitutions between HN1140 and RotaTeq strains,localized within the VP7,VP4,VP1,VP2,VP3,and NSP1 segments.The HN1140 strain exhibited the genotype G1-P[8]-A3-T6-H3,which was consistent with the typical profile of a vaccine-derived reassortant.This strain demonstrated high genetic similarity to RotaTeq vaccine strains,with nucleotide sequence identity ranging from 99.7%to 100%.These findings suggested that HN1140 evolved from RotaTeq vaccine strains through genetic reassortment.

[Purpose]To investigate the trends of incidence and age at onset of uterine corpus can-cer in Jiangsu cancer registration areas from 2009 to 2019.[Methods]The continuous monitoring data of uterine corpus cancer from 2009 to 2019 were collected from 16 cancer registries in Jiang-su Province.The crude incidence rate,the age-standardized incidence rate by Chinese standard population(ASIRC),crude and adjusted mean age,and standardized age-specific incidence composition were calculated.The average annual percentage change(AAPC)were analyzed by the Joinpoint regression model.The linear regression model was used to analyze the relationship be-tween mean age at onset and year.The standardized age-specific incidence composition in 2009 and 2019 were compared.[Results]The ASIRC of uterine corpus cancer in all registration areas and in rural areas of Jiangsu Province showed upward trends with AAPC of 1.78％and 2.38％,re-spectively(P＜0.05),but not showed in the urban areas(AAPC=1.30％,P＞0.05).The crude mean age at onset increased from 56.48 years old in 2009 to 58.26 years old in 2019 with an average annual growth of 0.173 years old(P=0.001).After the population structure standardized,the trends disappeared in all registration areas.[Conclusion]From 2009 to 2019,the standardized incidence rates of uterine corpus cancer were on rise in Jiangsu cancer registration areas,especially in the age group of 50 to 59 years old.

Objective: To investigate the trends in the disease burden of leukemia in Jiangsu Province from 1990 to 2019, so as to provide insights into leukemia control in Jiangsu Province. Methods: The prevalence, incidence, death and disability adjusted life years (DALYs) of leukemia in Jiangsu Province from 1990 to 2019 were retrieved from the 2019 Global Burden of Disease Study (GBD 2019) database, and standardized by the age structure of Chinese populations in 2000. The trends in the disease burden of leukemia in Jiangsu Province from 1990 to 2019 were analyzed using average annual percent change (AAPC). Results : The average annual standardized prevalence, incidence, mortality and DALY rate of leukemia were 63.63/105, 9.76/105, 4.10/105 and 194.83/105 in Jiangsu Province from 1990 to 2019, respectively. The average annual standardized prevalence (AAPC=1.420%, t=5.644, P<0.001) and incidence (AAPC=0.806%, t=3.505, P<0.001) of leukemia appeared a tendency towards a rise, while the average annual standardized mortality (AAPC=-1.589%, t=-14.714, P<0.001) and DALY rate (AAPC=-1.849%, t=-9.046, P<0.001) of leukemia appeared a tendency towards a decline in Jiangsu Province from 1990 to 2019. Higher average annual standardized prevalence (65.27/105 vs. 62.38/105, P<0.001), incidence (10.32/105 vs. 9.29/105, P<0.001), mortality (4.69/105 vs. 3.57/105, P<0.001) and DALY rate of leukemia (216.94/105 vs. 172.80/105, P<0.001) were estimated among men than among women. The crude prevalence of leukemia peaked among patients at ages of 0 to 14 years and 60 to 74 years, and the crude incidence, DALY rate and mortality of leukemia peaked at ages of 0 to 14 years and 75 years and older. Conclusions The mortality and DALY of leukemia appeared a tendency towards a decline and the prevalence and incidence appeared a tendency towards a rise in Jiangsu Province from 1990 to 2019; however, there were high disease burdens of leukemia among men, children and the elderly.

Objective: To investigate the incidence and trends in incidence of stroke among residents in Lianyungang City, Jiangsu Province from 2014 to 2020, so as to provide insights into stroke control. Methods: The stroke morbidity data in Lianyungang City from 2014 to 2020 were captured from Lianyungang Municipal System for Monitoring of Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Diseases, and standardized by the sixth national population census data in China in 2010. The trends in stroke incidence were evaluated using average annual percentage change (AAPC), and the gender-, age-, region- and disease type-specific incidence and trends in incidence of stroke were descriptively analyzed. Results: Totally 162 423 new stroke cases were diagnosed in Lianyungang City from 2014 to 2020 new case, and the annual mean crude and standardized incidence rates were 435.32/105 and 357.28/105, which both appeared a tendency towards a rise (AAPC=12.61%, t=39.098, P<0.001; AAPC=9.91%, t=6.123, P<0.001) . The standardized incidence of stroke was significantly higher in men than in women (389.63/105 vs. 327.17/105; χ2=4.056, P=0.044). The crude incidence of stroke appeared a tendency towards a rise with age among residents (χ2trend=258.219, P<0.001), and appeared a tendency towards a rise among residents at ages of <35 (AAPC=22.52%, t=6.723, P<0.001), 35 to 64 (AAPC=9.78%, t=7.867, P<0.001) and 65 years and older (AAPC=10.24%, t=5.156, P<0.001). The crude incidence was higher in rural areas than in urban areas (437.72/105 vs. 425.31/105; χ2=20.709, P<0.001). Ischemic stroke was the predominant type (139 680 cases, 86.00% of all cases), and both the crude and standardized incidence appeared a tendency towards a rise (AAPC=13.79%, t=16.865, P<0.001; AAPC=10.88%, t=5.128, P<0.001). Conclusion The incidence of stroke appeared a tendency towards a rise among residents living in Lianyungang City from 2014 to 2020. Men, middle-age and elderly residents and rural residents are high-risk populations for stroke control.

Objective To evaluate the safety and efficacy of irreversible electroporation (IRE) combined with neoadjuvant chemotherapy in patients with locally advanced pancreatic cancer. Methods We searched PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, China Biomedical Literature Database, CNKI, Wanfang, and VIP databases for articles dated from the establishment of each database to March 2022. Meta-analysis was performed using RevMan5.4 software. Results A total of 3970 patients with locally advanced pancreatic cancer were enrolled in eight studies, including one randomized controlled trial, four retrospective studies, and three prospective studies. The patients were divided into the combined therapy group with 344 patients and the chemotherapy-only group with 3626 patients. Meta-analysis showed that the overall survival of patients in the combined therapy group was significantly higher than that in the chemotherapy-only group (OR=4.52; 95%CI: 2.63-7.77; P < 0.00001). However, no significant difference existed in the disease control rate between the combined therapy group and the chemotherapy-only group (OR=0.58; 95%CI: 0.02-18.74; P=0.76). Moreover, no significant difference existed in the disease progression between the two groups (OR=0.49; 95%CI: 0.23-1.02; P=0.06). The combination of neoadjuvant chemotherapy and IRE had no significant effect on the incidence of adverse reactions of gastrointestinal reaction (OR=0.37; 95%CI: 0.10-1.34; P=0.13) and bone marrow suppression (OR=0.61; 95%CI: 0.26-1.40; P=0.24). Conclusion IRE combined with neoadjuvant chemotherapy can remarkably improve the prognosis of patients with locally advanced pancreatic cancer, and significantly prolong the overall survival.

Objective:The aim of this study was to explore the application of maxillary osteotomy plate and positioning guide plate in maxillary Le Fort Ⅰ osteotomy to eliminate the postoperative error caused by condylar displacement.Methods:Patients suffered from skeletal malocclusion and needed Le Fort Ⅰ osteotomy between January 2018 and November 2020 were selected from the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, the First Affiliated Hospital of Bengbu Medical College. All patients were scanned with 64 slice spiral CT. The DICOM format data were analyzed using the Simplant software to reconstruct the virtual three-dimensional model of the jaw before operation. Then, the measurement of indexes and the maxillary Le Fort Ⅰ osteotomy were carried out on the virtual three-dimensional model, respectively. 3D-printed osteotomy guide plate and positioning guide plate were used to determine the osteotomy line and the position of maxillary advancement. 3D-printed tooth supported occlusal plate was used to support the mandibular sagittal split and retraction. The differences of 10 indexes between the two groups (virtual operation and surgery) were analyzed by paired t test using SPSS 22.0. Results:A total of 8 patients (5 males and 3 females) needed maxillary Le Fort Ⅰ osteotomy aged from 18 to 39 years old were recorded. The deviation of age in these patients was 24.8. The 3D-printed guide plate and tooth supporting occlusal plate were positioned accurately in surgery. All the operations were successful with primary healing of the incision and stable occlusion, and without joint clicking. There was no significant difference on the 10 indexes between the groups of virtual operation and surgery ( P>0.05). Conclusions:The application of maxillary osteotomy plate and positioning guide plate can effectively and accurately control the three-dimensional movement of the maxilla and improve the precision of maxillary Le fort Ⅰ osteotomy in orthognathic surgery, making the surgical effect highly consistent with the preoperative design.
