Combined vaccines can simplify the vaccination process, improve coverage rates, reduce the risk of adverse events following immunization, lower social costs, and improve the timeliness of childhood vaccination. This article focuses on multi-component vaccines based on the diphtheria-tetanus-pertussis containing vaccine. Globally, multiple combined vaccines have been developed and marketed, but the development of combined vaccine is still in its infancy stage in China, with limited vaccine types and doses available. The research, development, and application of combined vaccines still face numerous challenges in China, including technical challenges in research and development, as well as insufficient motivation for research and development. Additionally, the high cost of existing combined vaccines, coupled with low public awareness and weak vaccination intentions, significantly hinders their widespread application, China should continue to rigorously implement the Vaccine Administration Law of the People's Republic of China, promote innovative development of combined vaccines, increase public awareness, strengthen child guardians' confidence in vaccination, and improve the accessibility and affordability of combined vaccines to protect public health across all life stages.

The health and well-being of the elderly have become a focal point for all sectors of society. As an effective means of preventing and controlling infectious diseases, vaccination plays a critical role in safeguarding human health. For older adults, timely and scientifically guided vaccination can significantly reduce the risk of serious illnesses while alleviating the associated economic burdens and pressure imposed on society. However, in practice, deficiencies in policy support, accessibility of vaccination services, and public awareness hinder some elderly individuals from fully benefiting from the protective effects of vaccines. This paper analyzes current vaccination practices for the elderly globally and proposes strategies to improve vaccination coverage, providing a scientific basis for advancing effective vaccination initiatives for this demographic in China.

As an important setting for the administration of vaccinations, the reasonable setting up and standardized management of vaccination clinics will enhance immunization service quality, public satisfaction, and improve the vaccination rate to protect people′s health. In recent years, various provinces in China are continuously promoting the standardized construction and management of vaccination clinics. However, the level of standardization management remains unbalanced, and the capacity of vaccination services needs to be further improved. This paper reviews the standardized management process of vaccination clinics, summarizes the practice and achievements in various regions, and analyzes the challenges and issues during these processes, to provide reference for improving the standardized management level of vaccination clinics in the future.

Vaccination has become one of the key public health interventions for reducing child mortality. With the implementation of the expanded programme on immunization, the number of vaccine types children need to receive is increasing, necessitating further optimization of childhood immunization strategies. The World Health Organization recommends simultaneous vaccination as one of the core strategies for optimizing childhood immunization schedules. This article analyzes the current status, challenges, and prospects of simultaneous vaccination strategies for children in China, aiming to provide a scientific basis for promoting and implementing strategies for the simultaneous administration of multiple vaccines to children.

Objective:To investigate the characteristics of m6A methylation modification patterns in mRNA of patients with major depressive disorder (MDD) and its effect in the pathogenesis of the disease.Methods:From March 2022 to May 2023, five untreated MDD patients were assigned to the MDD group, and five healthy individuals were enrolled as the healthy control group at the First Psychiatric Hospital of Harbin.Microarray analysis was performed to determine the m6A modification profiles and gene expression patterns of mRNA in MDD. Gene ontology (GO) enrichment analysis and Kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes (KEGG) pathway analysis were conducted to elucidate the effect of m6A methylation in the development of depression. Finally, methylated RNA immunoprecipitation combined with quantitative PCR (MeRIP-qPCR) was used to validate the m6A methylation levels of key mRNAs (GRM4, CAMKK2). Data were analyzed using R software (version 4.2.0) with t-test and Fisher's exact test. Results:Significant differences in m6A-modified mRNAs were observed between MDD patients and healthy controls. A total of 513 mRNAs (180 hypermethylated and 333 hypomethylated) exhibited differential m6A modifications in MDD patients. GO and KEGG analysis revealed that hypermethylated mRNAs were primarily enriched in neuroactive ligand-receptor interactions, while hypomethylated mRNAs were associated with the AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) signaling pathway. Additionally, a total of 350 differentially expressed mRNAs were identified (171 upregulated and 179 downregulated), enriched in the cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) and tumor necrosis factor (TNF) signaling pathways. MeRIP-qPCR results demonstrated that the m6A methylation level of GRM4 in MDD patients (25.40±2.38) was significantly higher than that in healthy controls (9.40±1.00) ( t=13.88, P<0.05), whereas the methylation level of CAMKK2 (19.63±6.60) was significantly lower than that in healthy controls (30.51±7.20) ( t=2.48, P<0.05). Conclusion:The m6A modification expression profile is abnormal in patients with major depressive disorder, which may be involved in the pathogenesis and development of MDD, and the identification of key pathways may provide new clues and evidence for the development of more effective therapeutic targets for MDD.
