Objective To understand mosquito density, species composition, and seasonal variations around the Beijing Capital International Airport(BCIA)and provide scientific evidence for mosquito-borne disease prevention and control. Methods Meteorological data were collected from 2016 to 2022, and mosquito density was monitored at seven surveillance sites around the BCIA from May to October each year using CO2-baited mosquito traps to analyze the relationship between mosquito density and meteorological factors. Results In total,68 518 female mosquitoes were captured, with a mosquito density of 10.20 per light · hour. The dominant species was Culex pipiens pallens(73.90%), followed by Aedes albopictus(9.71%)and Ae. vexans(9.29%);the mosquito density was highest in 2016(14.8 per light·hour)and lowest in 2022(4.46 per light·hour). Significant statistical differences were observed in mosquito density among different species(F=18.118, P<0.05). The density of Cx. pipiens pallens and other mosquito species showed a mutually exclusive trend; the peak of mosquito density varied based on years and habitats, with significant statistical differences in mosquito density among different habitats(F=8.504, P<0.05). The highest mosquito density was observed near the Wenyu River(21.50 per light·hour), whereas the lowest was recorded at the BCIA construction site(2.44 per light· hour). The monthly average temperature(r=0.595), monthly average highest temperature(r=0.575), and monthly average lowest temperature(r=0.624)showed moderate positive correlations, whereas the monthly average air pressure(r=-0.484)showed a moderate negative correlation. The monthly average minimum temperature was included in the regression model(F=25.575, P<0.000), and the equation Y=1.029X4-8.181 was used. The monthly average air pressure 2 months prior(b=-2.418, β=-1.619, P<0.05)and the monthly average relative humidity(b=-0.739, β=-1.201, P<0.05)significantly negatively predicted the mosquito density. Notably, the regression equation used was y=2526.170+(-2.418)X9+(-0.739)X13. The exposure-response analysis revealed that the density of mosquitoes was not linearly related to the average monthly air pressure, rainfall, and duration of sunshine. Conclusions The dominant mosquito species around the BCIA was Cx. pipiens pallens, Ae. albopictus, and Ae. vexans. During the control of Cx. pipiens pallens, the impact on other mosquito species must also be considered. Environmental management, breeding sites, and scientific use of pesticides should be prioritized based on the activity periods of mosquitoes. Further studies on mosquitoes and meteorological factors should be conducted to provide references and novel avenues for mosquito control.

In modern society， the comorbidity of insomnia with amnesia has shown a significantly increasing incidence and become increasingly severe， emerging as a public health issue that endangers people's physical and mental health and quality of life. Anmei Dan （AMD）， originally recorded in the Shishi Milu by CHEN Shiduo in the Qing Dynasty， possesses profound theoretical foundations and distinct clinical advantages in ameliorating insomnia with amnesia. Basic research has unequivocally confirmed its definite therapeutic effects on insomnia with amnesia and revealed partial mechanisms. AMD is therefore a veritable classic prescription embodying the principle of treating different diseases with the same method for insomnia and amnesia. However， few researchers have reviewed the related research progress. This article systematically summarized the theoretical connotations of traditional Chinese medicine in treating insomnia with amnesia， delineated the multi-component material basis of AMD in ameliorating insomnia with amnesia （including various chemical components such as ginsenosides， jujubosides， and salvianolic acids）， and evaluate its multi-dimensional clinical efficacy （e.g.， prolonging total sleep time， improving sleep efficiency， and enhancing memory）. Moreover， it systematically summarizes the multi-pathway mechanisms of action. The results indicate that AMD has a clear material basis， definite clinical efficacy， and a favorable safety profile in ameliorating insomnia and amnesia. AMD may exert the therapeutic effect by regulating sleep-wake rhythms， enhancing synaptic plasticity， inhibiting neuroimmune inflammation， and modulating autophagy， oxidative stress， and energy metabolism. In conclusion， AMD exerts synergistic effects through multi-component， multi-dimensional， and multi-pathway approaches， serving as an important prescription for enriching and developing the theory of treating different diseases with the same method for insomnia with amnesia.

Removal of endogenic renal sinus tumors which are located at the renal hilum,is recognized as one of the most challenging surgeries in urology due to the complex anatomical structure.With the help of the high-definition field of vision and flexible robotic arms of the Da Vinci robot system,our team have carried out precision intra-sinus tumor enucleation based on preoperative interactive qualitative and Interactive Quantitative Quality Assurance for 3D Imaging(IQQA-3D)accurate reconstruction technology,as well as the clinical anatomical characteristics of patients with renal sinus tumors.During operation,the renal pedicle is fully dissected,the perihilar fat is cleared,and the tumor capsule is exposed.Subsequently,the blood supply to the kidney is blocked,and the tumor is precisely excised along the tumor capsule.The vascular stumps are sutured point-to-point,and the wound is closed and locked.After the blood supply restores,regional arterial occlusion is performed if necessary to ensure the safety of the surgery and maximize the preservation of renal function.This article discusses the definition of tumor boundaries during robot-assisted endogenic sinus tumor enucleation,the use of intraoperative cooling techniques,and the improvement of surgical safety.

An assay was established for detection of toxigenic Clostridioides difficile by combining microfluidic chip analysis with immunochromatography,and its performance was evaluated and compared with those of the Xpert C.difficile/Epi and VIDAS CD AB tests.Primer pairs were designed according to the tcdB and tpi genes in C.difficile.The specificity,limit of detection,reproducibility,and stability were evaluated.A total of 215 stool samples from patients with diarrhea were collected and tested in parallel with the Xpert C.difficile/Epi,VIDAS CDAB,and our assay.C.difficile was isolated from samples,and the tcdB gene was identified when discrepant results were obtained from the three above assays.Our assay showed no cross-reaction with other diarrhea-associated pathogens.Its reproducibility was 100％in testing of two standard plasmids containing tcdB and tpi genes at two concentrations(105 and 102 copies/μL).Two standard plasmids were detected after the PCR and immunochromatography reagents had been stored for 3,6,9,and 12 months,and all the results were posi-tive.The limit of detection was 10 copies/μL for toxigenic C.difficile.Testing of 33 samples positive for C.difficile with our assay(33/215,15.3％)yielded findings statistically coherent with those of the Xpert C.difficile/Epi test(kappa value=0.965).The sensitivity,specificity,positive predictive value,and negative predictive value of our assay,with respect to Xpert C.difficile/Epi as the standard,were 94.3％,100.0％,100.0％,and 98.9％;these values were significantly higher than those of VIDAS CDAB(60.0％,98.9％,91.3％,and 92.7％)(Kappa=0.714,OR=157.50,95％CI:62.03-847.28,P=0.013).In conclusion,our newly developed assay is specific,stable,and reproducible,and may be used for rapid and accu-rate detection of toxigenic C.difficile.The assay could be used for C.difficile infection screening in outpatient and emergen-cy,community medical service center,and epidemiological settings.

Objective To quantify the volume and movement of cardiac substructures by using coronary computed tomography angiography(CCTA)to provide guidance for the design of deep inspiratory breath-holding radiation therapy for left breast cancer and the protection of organs at risk.Methods Totally 18 female patients who received conventional chest plain scan and CCTA were selected to simulate the design process of radiotherapy plan for left breast cancer patients with internal mammary lymph nodes.Retrospective reconstruction of CCTA data was performed for each patient,with 10 phase images(with an interval of 10％)within a R-R cardiac cycle(10％-100％)to simulate the true range of motion of the heart.The heart,left atrium(LA),left ventricle(LV),right atrium(RA),right ventricle(RV),left anterior descending artery(LAD),left circumflex coronary artery(LCX)and right coronary artery(RCA)were contoured at each phase.The distances from the centroid position to the average position of LAD,LCX and RCA were measured at each phase in the superior-inferior(SI),anterior-posterior(AP)and left-right(LR).The average volume and range of volume changes of LA,LV,RA,RV and heart were analyzed within a cardiac cycle.The expansion margins of planning organs at risk volume(PRV)were calculated.SPSS 19.0 software was used for statistical analysis.Results The following average absolute displacements were found in SI,AP and LR coordinates:(1.8±0.7)mm,(1.2±0.5)mm and(1.5±0.5)mm for LAD,respectively;(2.1±0.7)mm,(1.5±0.6)mm and(1.9±0.7)mm for LCX,respectively;(1.6±0.5)mm,(2.2±0.9)mm and(2.2±0.8)mm for RCA,respectively.The volume changes of LA,LV,RA,RV and heart within a cardiac cycle ranged from 34.3 to 63.9 cm3,122.1 to 154.3 cm3,29.3 to 53.6 cm3,57.2 to 94.3 cm3 and 480.1 to 515.4 cm3,respectively.The theoretical expansion margins of LAD,LCX and RCA in all the three directions were within 2 mm.Conclusion The ranges of movement and volume changes of cardiac substructure are quantitati-vely displayed,and references are provided for the planning of deep inspiratory breath-holding radiation therapy for left breast cancer and the protection of organs at risk.[Chinese Medical Equipment Journal,2025,46(3):54-58]

Objective To analyze the changes of neutrophil-to-albumin ratio(NPAR),monocyte-to-lymphocyte ratio(MLR),neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio(NLR)and interleukin-17A(IL-17A)in patients with severe autoimmune encephalitis(AE)and the predictive value of their combined detection for prognosis.Methods A total of 105 patients with severe AE admitted from May 2021 to April 2025 were selected as the severe group.During the same period,35 patients with mild-to-moderate AE and 35 healthy controls were enrolled in a 3:1:1 ratio as the mild-to-moderate group and control group respectively.The levels of NPAR,MLR,NLR and IL-17A were compared among the three groups.Patients with severe AE were observed for one month.According to the prognosis of patients,they were divided into poor prognosis subgroup[modified Rankin scale(mRS)score≥3,n=31]and good prognosis subgroup(mRS score<3,n=74).The levels of NPAR,MLR,NLR and IL-17A in the two groups were compared,to analyze the correlation between NPAR,MLR,NLR and IL-17A levels and mRS score in patients with severe AE,and to evaluate the predictive value of combined detection of the four indicators for prognosis in these patients.Results The levels of NPAR,MLR,NLR and serum IL-17A in mild-to-moderate group and severe group were higher than those in control group,which were higher in the severe group than in the mild-to-moderate group(P<0.05).The course of disease in the poor prognosis group was longer than that in the good prognosis group,and the proportion of patients with γ-aminobutyric acid B receptor antibody and the levels of NPAR,MLR,NLR and serum IL-17A were higher than those in the good prognosis group(P<0.05).Higher levels of NPAR,MLR,NLR and serum IL-17A were all risk factors for poor prognosis of patients with severe AE(OR=2.445,4.319,2.502,1.791,P<0.05).The levels of NPAR,MLR,NLR and serum IL-17A were positively correlated with the mRS score of patients with severe AE(r=0.546,0.519,0.554,0.561,P<0.001).The area under the receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve(AUC)of NPAR,MLR,NLR and IL-17A detected in combination in predicting the prognosis of patients with severe AE was higher than that of the four indicators detected alone(P<0.05).Conclusion The changes in NPAR,MLR,NLR and IL-17A levels in patients with AE were closely related to the severity and prognosis of the disease.In the meantime,higher levels of NPAR,MLR,NLR and serum IL-17A were risk factors for poor prognosis,and the combined detection of the four indicators could effectively improve the predictive value for prognosis in patients with severe AE.

Objective:To investigate the predictive value of interventricular septal thickness(IVST),the ratio of mitral ear-ly diastolic peak flow velocity to late diastolic peak flow velocity(E/A)combined with aortic valve flow velocity(AV)for hypertensive heart disease(HHD)and its association with blood pressure grade.Methods:A total of 202 patients with hy-pertension suspected of HHD admitted to Qinhuangdao Hospital of Dongfang Hospital,Beijing University of Chinese Medi-cine between May 2020 and May 2023 were enrolled and divided into HHD group(n=102)and non-HHD group(n=100)according to color Doppler energy imaging and blood pressure diagnosis.Blood pressure,IVST,E/A and AV were measured in two groups.The predictive value of IVST,E/A and AV for HHD were evaluated by receiver operating charac-teristic(ROC)curve.According to hypertension grading,patients in HHD group was divided into grade 1～2 group(n=59)and grade 3 group(n=41).The association of IVST,E/A,AV with blood pressure grade in HHD patients were ana-lyzed by Spearman correlation analysis.Results:Compared with patients in non-HHD group,those in HHD group had significant higher IVST,and significant lower E/A and AV(P＜0.001 all);Compared with patients in grade 1～2 group,those in grade 3 group had significant higher IVST,and significant lower E/A and AV(P＜0.001 all).ROC curve showed that the AUC of IVST,E/A and AV alone and their combination in HHD diagnosis was 0.798(95％CI 0.736～0.851),0.682(95％CI 0.613～0.746),0.810(95％CI 0.748～0.862)and 0.927(95％CI 0.881～0.959)respectively,and the diagnostic value of combined detection was significantly higher than those of single detections(Z=4.431,5.669,3.948,P=0.001 all).Spearman correlation analysis showed that E/A and AV were significant negatively correlated with blood pressure grade(r=-0.725,-0.781),while I VST was significant positively correlated with blood pressure grade(r=0.714),and combined detection possessed a stronger correlation with it in HHD patients(r=0.875,P＜0.001 all).Con-clusion:The combined detection of I VST,E/A and AV demonstrates a good predictive value for HHD and exhibits a sig-nificant correlation with blood pressure grade in HHD patients.

Objective To investigate the relationship between the radial-ulnar ratio,lateral lunate angle of radius and height loss of radius after palmar locking plate internal fixation for distal radius fractures.Methods A total of 158 patients with distal radius fractures treated with palmar locking plate internal fixation in our hospital from March 2020 to September 2023 were selected.According to the height of radius loss after operation,the patients were divided into non-radius loss group(41 cases,<2 mm),mild to moderate radius loss group(32 cases,2 to 5 mm)and severe radius loss group(85 cases,>5 mm),and the clinical data of patients in the three groups were compared.Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the risk factors affecting height loss of radius.Locally weighted scatterplot smoothing(LOWESS)method was used to analyze the two-dimensional curve relationship of continuous variables.Restricted cubic spline(RCS)and threshold effect were used to analyze the relationship between the radial-ulnar ratio,lateral lunate angle of radius and height loss of radius after operation.Results The age of patients in the severe radius loss group was significantly higher than those in the non-radius loss group and the mild to moderate radius loss group(P<0.05),and the age of patients in the mild to moderate radius loss group was significantly higher than that in the non-radius loss group(P<0.05).Female patients and patients with osteoporosis and fracture type C were more likely to have height loss of radius(P<0.05).There were significant differences in patient-rated wrist evaluation(PRWE)score,disabilities of the arm,shoulder and hand(DASH)score,dorsal extension,palmar curvature,ulnar deviation,radial deviation,radial-ulnar ratio,and lateral lunate angle of radius of patients at 3 and 6 months after operation among three groups(P<0.001).The first prediction model based on age,gender,osteoporosis,fracture type,PRWE score,DASH score,dorsal extension,palmar curvature,ulnar deviation,and radial deviation and the second prediction model based on age,gender,osteoporosis,fracture type,PRWE score,DASH score,dorsal extension,palmar curvature,ulnar deviation,radial deviation,radial-ulnar ratio,and lateral lunate angle of radius were subjected to Hosmer-Lemeshow test showed good goodness of fit.LOWESS analysis showed that age,PRWE score,DASH score,dorsal extension,palmar curvature,ulnar deviation,radial deviation,radial-ulnar ratio,and lateral lunate angle of radius had a certain nonlinear relationship with the height loss of radius.RCS and threshold effect analysis showed that the probability of postoperative radius loss increased with the increase of radial-ulnar ratio in patients with distal radius fractures and radial-ulnar ratio≥13.254(P<0.001).The probability of postoperative radius loss decreased with the increase of the lateral lunate angle of radius in patients with distal radius fractures and lateral lunate angle of radius≤11.068°(P<0.001).Conclusion There was a positive correlation between the radial-ulnar ratio and the height loss of radius,and a negative correlation between the lateral lunate angle of radius and the height loss of radius after palmar locking plate internal fixation for distal radius fractures.

Objective To observe the efficacy of self-made auxiliary reduction device combined with sinus tarsi approach(STA)in the treatment of Sanders type Ⅱ to Ⅳ calcaneal fractures.Methods A total of 40 patients with Sanders type Ⅱ to Ⅳ calcaneal fractures admitted to our hospital from January to June 2023 were selected and divided into the control group and the observation group by the random number table method,with 20 cases in each group.Patients in the control group underwent surgical treatment with the heel extensile lateral approach(ELA),while patients in the observation group underwent surgical treatment with the auxiliary reduction device combined with STA.The surgical-related indicators,postoperative complications and ankle-foot anatomical indicators of patients in the two groups were compared.The recovery of limb function was evaluated by the American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society(AOFAS)ankle-hindfoot scale and Maryland foot function score.Results There was no statistically significant difference in the operation time,postoperative incision drying time,or duration of postoperative pain between the two groups(P>0.05).The postoperative suture removal time of the patients in the observation group was shorter than that of the control group,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).The incidence of skin edge necrosis of incision and the total incidence of complications of patients in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group(P<0.05).The B?hler angle and Gissane angle of patients in both groups increased after surgery compared with those before surgery(P<0.05);there was no statistically significant difference in the B?hler angle or Gissane angle after surgery of patients between the two groups(P>0.05).The AOFAS score1 week after surgery of the patients in the observation group was higher than that in the control group(P<0.05),while there were no statistically significant differences in the AOFAS scores or Maryland scores of patients at other time points between the two groups(P>0.05).Conclusion The use of the auxiliary reduction device in surgical treatment with STA for Sanders type Ⅱ to Ⅳ calcaneal fractures can effectively restore the function of the foot and ankle,with short postoperative suture removal time and low incidence of postoperative complications.

Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy and safety of facilitated percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI)with half-dose recombinant staphylokinase(r-SAK)in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction(STEMI)who are expected to undergo PCI within 120 minutes.Methods From October 2021 to August 2022,a total of 200 STEMI patients in eight centers were included and randomly assigned in a 1﹕1 ratio to either r-SAK group or control group.Patients received loading doses of aspirin and ticagrelor and intravenous heparin and were randomized to receive an intravenous bolus of either 5 mg r-SAK or normal saline prior to PCI.The outcomes were set as ST-segment resolution(STR)at 60-90 minutes after PCI,the proportion and transition of pathological Q waves on the 5th day after PCI,and the proportion of high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T(hs-cTnT)peaking within 12 hours of onset.The safety outcome was major bleeding events defined as Bleeding Academic Research Consortium(BARC)≥type 3 bleeding during hospitalization.Results Compared with the control group,the r-SAK group had a higher proportion of STR≥70%within 60-90 minutes after PCI(58.3%vs.40.3%,P=0.009);a lower proportion of pathological Q waves(59.1%vs.74.1%,P=0.040);a lower rate of Q wave progression(14.8%vs.43.2%,P＜0.001);a higher rate of Q wave disappearance(12.5%vs.3.7%,P=0.027);and a higher proportion of hs-cTnT peaking within 12 hours of symptom onset[31/40(77.5%)vs.17/33(51.5%),P=0.027].Regarding the safety outcome,no significant difference in BARC≥type 3 bleeding was found between the two groups during hospitalization(P＞0.05).Conclusions For STEMI patients who were expected to undergo primary PCI within 120 minutes of symptom onset,the facilitated PCI with half-dose r-SAK significantly increased the proportion of STR≥70%at 60-90 minutes after PCI,reduced the formation of pathological Q waves,and shortened the time to peak hs-cTnT,without increasing the risk of bleeding,which should be an alternative reperfusion strategy worthy of further study.
