ObjectiveTo investigate the prevalence of cardiovascular diseases and their influencing factors in community-based schizophrenia patients in Shanghai, and to provide a scientific basis for the early identification and prevention of cardiovascular disease in this population. MethodsBased on the Shanghai community cohort with severe mental disorders in 2022, a total of 3 954 community-based schizophrenia patients were identified and included in this study through a stratified cluster sampling method. Basic information and relevant clinical data (including metabolic index data) were collected through questionnaire survey, physical examination and laboratory testing. Univariate analyses were performed using the chi-square tests, and multivariate logistic regression analyses were employed to identify influencing factors of comorbid cardiovascular diseases. ResultsA total of 3 954 community-based schizophrenia patients were included, of which a total of 1 237 (31.28%) patients had comorbid cardiovascular diseases. Multivariate logistic regression analyses showed that age 60 years old or above (OR=5.524, 95%CI: 3.716‒8.214), smoking behavior (OR=1.328, 95%CI: 1.042‒1.692), overweight (OR=1.900, 95%CI: 1.046‒3.451) or obesity (OR=2.678, 95%CI: 1.439‒4.985), elevated blood pressure (OR=1.546, 95%CI: 1.294‒1.846), abnormal fasting blood glucose (OR=1.552, 95%CI: 1.322‒1.823) and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol abnormalities (OR=1.283, 95%CI: 1.025‒1.606) were positively associated with the risk of comorbid cardiovascular diseases in patients with schizophrenia, while educational attainment of college/bachelor’s degree or above (OR=0.640, 95%CI: 0.450‒0.910) and being unmarried (OR=0.552, 95%CI: 0.457‒0.667) were negatively associated with the risk of cardiovascular diseases comorbidity. ConclusionAdvanced age, unhealthy behaviors and lifestyles, as well as abnormalities in blood pressure, blood glucose, and blood lipids, could all increase the risk of comorbid cardiovascular diseases in community schizophrenia patients. It is suggested to strengthen the monitoring and management of these risk factors in this population in the future, so as to achieve early detection, early diagnosis and early intervention of cardiovascular diseases.

Acquired immune deficiency syndrome(AIDS)is a systemic disease caused by the Human Immunodeficiency Virus(HIV).Chemokine(C-C motif)ligand 3(CCL3),as a vital member of the chemokine family,plays an indispensable role in the pathogenesis of AIDS.In the context of AIDS,CCL3 exerts significant antiviral and immunomodulatory effects by preventing HIV entry into target cells,activating immune cells to enhance antiviral capabilities,and modulating inflammatory responses,thereby influencing disease progression.Numerous studies have demonstrated that CCL3 gene copy number,specific T-cell responses,CCL3 polymorphisms,and the signaling pathways it participates in all influence the development of HIV and viral load.This article comprehensively reviews the multifaceted roles of CCL3 in AIDS,including its ability to block HIV-1 entry into immune cells,inducing the expression of antiviral proteins to inhibit viral replication,as well as the influence of its polymorphisms and alleles on HIV infection and disease progression,aiming to provide novel theoretical support for AIDS prevention and treatment strategies.

ObjectiveTo investigate the possible mechanism of Shufeng Jiedu capsules (SFJD) in alleviating influenza A (H1N1) virus pneumonia and focus on its effect on Toll-like receptor (TLR) signaling pathway in respiratory epithelial cells. MethodsA mouse model of viral pneumonia was established via the A/PR/8/34 (PR8) strain of influenza A virus. Mice were randomly divided into a normal group, a PR8 infection (PR8) group, and an SFJD group (8.4 g·kg-1), with 10 mice in each group. The day of infection was designated as day 1. The SFJD group was administered intragastrically at a volume of 20 mL·kg-1 daily, while the normal and PR8 groups were given an equal volume of deionized water. Micro-computed tomography (Micro-CT) was performed on day 5, and the mice were dissected to collect their lungs, after which the lung index was calculated to verify the therapeutic effect of SFJD. Single-cell sequencing was used to analyze the differentially expressed genes in respiratory epithelial cells. Multiplex fluorescence immunohistochemistry was employed to detect the expression of TLR, tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated factor 6 (TRAF6), and myeloid differentiation factor 88 (MyD88) proteins in epithelial cell adhesion molecule (EpCAM)-positive cells, and the proportion of respiratory epithelial cells expressing TLR pathway proteins was calculated. Respiratory epithelial cells were then sorted by flow cytometry, and Western blot was used to detect the expression of TLR, MyD88, TRAF6, Toll-interleukin receptor domain-containing adaptor inducing interferon-β (TRIF), inhibitor of κB kinase α (IKKα), and nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) in the sorted epithelial cells. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to measure the levels of interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) in lung tissue. ResultsAt the transcriptional level, SFJD reversed the expression of TLR signaling pathway genes in respiratory epithelial cells, downregulating multiple TLR signaling pathway-related genes (P<0.01). At the protein level, SFJD significantly reduced the proportion of respiratory epithelial cells expressing TLR3 (P<0.05), the expression levels of TLR2, TLR3, TLR4, TRIF, TRAF6, IKKα, and NF-κB in epithelial cells(P<0.05, P<0.01), as well as the levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-1β and TNF-α in lung tissue (P<0.01). ConclusionSFJD may alleviate viral pneumonia by suppressing the expression of TLR in respiratory epithelial cells and their subsequent signaling cascades.

Objective To investigate and analyze the occupational stress levels and influencing factors among radiation workers in China, and provide a reference for alleviating occupational stress and promoting mental health. Methods Using the general situation questionnaire, Effort-Reward Imbalance questionnaire, and radiation protection knowledge questionnaire, a convenience sampling method was adopted to investigate the occupational stress of 243 radiation workers in Liaoning, Fujian, Guangdong, and Xinjiang provinces. The independent samples t-test, one-way analysis of variance, chi-square test, and binary logistic regression were used to analyze the influencing factors. Results The average score of Effort-Reward Imbalance was 0.97 ± 0.22, and 100 (41.15%) radiation workers had occupational stress. There were significant differences in the detection rate of occupational stress among radiation workers of different ages, working years in radiation positions, monthly incomes, daily sleep durations, and daily working hours (P < 0.05). Logistic regression analysis identified daily working hours as a factor contributing to occupational stress. Conclusion The occupational stress among radiation workers in China is relatively severe. It is recommended to pay attention to the associated risks and implement targeted intervention measures to reduce the impact of occupational stress.

Xiaoaiping (XAP) Injection demonstrates the anti-prostate cancer (PCa) effects, yet the underlying mechanism remains unclear. This study aims to investigate the impact of XAP on PCa and elucidate its mechanism of action. PCa cell proliferation was evaluated using a cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) assay. Cell apoptosis was assessed through Hoechst staining and Western blotting assays. Proteomics technology was employed to identify key molecules and significant signaling pathways modulated by XAP in PCa cells. To further validate potential key genes and important pathways, a series of assays were conducted, including acridine orange (AO) staining, transmission electron microscopy, and immunofluorescence assays. The molecular mechanism of XAP against PCa in vivo was examined using a PC3 xenograft mouse model. Results demonstrated that XAP significantly inhibited cell proliferation in multiple PCa cell lines. In C4-2 and prostate cancer cell line-3 (PC3) cells, XAP induced cellular apoptosis, evidenced by reduced B-cell lymphoma 2 (Bcl-2) levels and elevated Bcl-2-associated X (Bax) levels. Proteomic, immunofluorescence, and quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) investigations revealed a strong correlation between forkhead box O3a (FoxO3a) autophagic degradation and the anti-PCa action of XAP. XAP hindered autophagy by reducing the expression levels of autophagy-related protein 5 (Atg5)/autophagy-related protein 12 (Atg12) and enhancing FoxO3a expression and nuclear translocation. Furthermore, XAP exhibited potent anti-PCa action in PC3 xenograft mice and triggered FoxO3a nuclear translocation in tumor tissue. These findings suggest that XAP induces PCa apoptosis via inhibition of FoxO3a autophagic degradation, potentially offering a novel perspective on XAP injection as an effective anticancer therapy for PCa.

Objective:To conduct a scoping review of studies on the application of exercise interventions in the rehabilitation of patients with hemophilic arthropathy (HA) .Methods:A systematic search was conducted in PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, Embase, CINAHL, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wanfang Data, VIP, and China Biology Medicine disc. The search period was from the database inception to March 1, 2024. Relevant literature was screened, summarized, and analyzed.Results:A total of 31 studies were included. The study population mainly consisted of adult patients with moderate to severe hemophilia suffering from elbow, knee, and ankle arthropathy, who were in a stable bleeding phase without coagulation factor inhibitors. Exercise types included resistance training, aerobic exercise, balance/proprioceptive exercises, and flexibility training. The exercise intensity was predominantly low to moderate. The duration of each session was mostly 30-60 minutes, with a frequency of 2-5 times per week and a total intervention period of 4-12 weeks. Exercises were mostly conducted in medical institutions under face-to-face supervision. Exercise interventions led to varying degrees of improvement in mobility, balance/proprioceptive function, joint function, cardiopulmonary fitness, psychological well-being, and quality of life.Conclusions:Exercise interventions for patients with hemophilic arthropathy are diverse, demonstrating safety, feasibility, and efficacy. Future research should focus on a multidisciplinary, exercise-centered rehabilitation approach, standardizing evaluation criteria, and dynamically monitoring the rehabilitation process to develop standardized exercise rehabilitation protocols.

Objective:To explore the application value of the integrated situational simulation teaching model based on the "Internet+"in obstetrics and gynecology clinical clerkship.Methods:Fifty-eight undergraduate students enrolled in 2019 who participated in the clinical clerkship at the Chengdu Fifth People's Hospital from June to September 2023 were selected and divided into a research group ( n=29) and a control group ( n=29) using the random number table method. The research group received the integrated situational simulation teaching model based on "Internet+", while the control group received traditional teaching methods. After clinical clerkship, theoretical tests, teacher evaluation, and questionnaire surveys were conducted to evaluate and compare the teaching effectiveness of the two groups of students. SPSS 23.0 was used for t test and chi-square test. Results:After receiving the integrated situational simulation teaching model based on "Internet+" for clinical clerkship, the research group achieved significantly higher theoretical test scores than the control group [(83.62±4.95) vs. (72.93±4.70), t=8.43, P<0.001]. The scores of all items in the mini-clinical evaluation exercise of the research group were higher than those of the control group ( P<0.01). According to the teaching feedback questionnaire, all students were satisfied with this new teaching model and reported that this model increased their interest in learning. Moreover, 86.21% (25/29) and 96.55% (28/29) of the students believed that the new model not only improved learning efficiency but also facilitated the integration of theory and practice. Conclusions:The integrated situational simulation teaching model based on "Internet+" is feasible in obstetrics and gynecology clinical clerkship and contributes to enhancing the quality of clinical clerkship teaching. This model is worthy of further research and promotion.
