Objective: To investigate the environmental contamination of norovirus in nurseries and primary/secondary schools, so as to provide a scientific basis for effective prevention and control measures. Methods: A total of 483 external environmental samples were collected from 34 cluster outbreaks of norovirus gastroenteritis in kindergartens and primary/secondary schools in Linhai City from 2021 to 2024. Pathogen detection was conducted using a rapid nucleic acid extraction kit and realtime fluorescence RT-PCR, and the results were analyzed using the χ2 test or Fishers exact test. Results: Among the collected external environmental samples, the total positive rate of surface contamination was 13.66%. The positive rates in kindergartens and primary/secondary schools were 12.20% and 15.82%, respectively. In kindergartens, the five surfaces with the highest detection rates were desks/chairs (23.33%), toilet stool troughs (20.69%), urinal troughs (12.00%), washbasins/sinks (11.11%), and toilet mops (9.38%). In primary/secondary schools, the top five were toilet stool troughs (38.30%), urinal troughs (23.53%), toilet door handles (13.04%), toilet mops (12.50%), and drinking cups (11.11%). The difference in positive detection rates among different external environments in primary/secondary schools was statistically significant (Fishers exact probability test, P<0.01). The positive detection rate in sanitary toilets was higher than that in classroom environments (χ2=17.38), while the positive detection rate in classroom environments of kindergartens was higher than that in primary/secondary schools (χ2=5.42)(P<0.05). Conclusions Norovirus exhibits a high contamination rate in nurseries and schools, particularly in restroom areas. Strengthening sanitation and disinfection in highrisk environments, and improving hygiene awareness among children and staff, are essential for the effective prevent and control of norovirus.

Objective: To investigate the therapeutic effect of patchouli alcohol on mice with lung-heat syndrome based on the phosphoinositide 3-kinase(PI3K)/protein kinase B(Akt)/nuclear factor-kappa B(NF-κB) signaling pathway. Methods: First, network pharmacology was used to predict the potential targets of patchouli alcohol in the treatment of lung-heat syndrome, and a "component-disease-key target" network was constructed for pathway analysis. Then, 40 BALB/c mice were assigned to the normal, lung-heat model, honeysuckle, and low-dose and high-dose patchouli alcohol groups. All groups, except the blank group, were intranasally infected with 50 μL (103 TCID50) of influenza virus solution. After two hours of infection, mice were treated once a day for seven consecutive days. The therapeutic mechanism of patchouli alcohol was explored by measuring pulmonary inflammatory factors, the PI3K/Akt/NF-κB pathway, hypothalamic fever markers (PGE2, cAMP, cGMP levels), rectal temperature, and tissue energy metabolism. Results: Network pharmacology identified 135 target genes related to patchouli alcohol and lung-heat syndrome, with the key targets being STAT3, H1F1A, and NF-κB1. In animal experiments, patchouli alcohol significantly alleviated influenza virus-induced lung inflammatory damage in mice with lung-heat syndrome, inhibited the expression of TNF-α and IL-6 in lung tissues(P<0.01), and suppressed the activation of the PI3K/Akt/NF-κB pathway. It also reduced hypothalamic levels of PGE2 and cAMP(P<0.01), suppressed the increase in rectal temperature, significantly decreased liver glycogen and pyruvate levels(P<0.01), and increased the activities of SDH, LDH, and Na+ -K+ -ATPase in the liver(P<0.01) Conclusion Patchouli alcohol improves the symptoms of lung-heat syndrome in mice by inhibiting the activation of the PI3K/Akt/NF-κB pathway, reducing proinflammatory cytokines and inflammatory damage, and regulating hypothalamic fever markers and energy metabolism.

BACKGROUND:After the internal fixation of cannulated screws in femoral neck fractures,because the affected limb is often unable to bear weight in the short term and the implants with high stiffness have a stress shielding effect on the fracture end,it is easy to cause osteoporosis of the affected limb and changes in the biomechanical distribution of the proximal femur,the incidence of osteonecrosis of the femoral head is high after surgery.At present,few studies have been conducted on the biomechanical effects of osteoporosis at the proximal end of the femur occurring after femoral neck fracture surgery on femoral neck fracture treated with cannulated screws. OBJECTIVE:Using finite element analysis,to investigate the biomechanical effects of osteoporosis occurring after femoral neck fracture surgery on femoral neck fracture treated with cannulated screws and explore the role of biomechanical factors in osteonecrosis of the femoral head. METHODS:Based on the obtained CT scan data of the femur in a patient with a femoral neck fracture,a proximal femoral model for internal fixation for femoral neck fracture was established by Mimics 19.0,3-Matic,UG 11.0,Hypermesh 14.0,and Abaqus software.One finite element model of the proximal femur without osteoporosis and three finite element models of the proximal femur with osteoporosis were analyzed using Abaqus software.The stress,contact pressure,displacement peak and cloud map under different components of the four models were measured and analyzed,and the internal stress changes and distribution of the femoral head were compared and analyzed. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The stresses and contact pressures of the femoral head and lower anterior cannulated screws varied more with the degree of osteoporosis.The peak displacement of the four models increased slowly with the degree of osteoporosis.By one-way analysis of variance,there was no significant effect of the degree of osteoporosis on the peak stress,contact pressure,and displacement of the different components.The internal stress distribution of the femoral head changed with the degree of osteoporosis.Changes in the biomechanical environment of the proximal femur have an important impact on osteonecrosis of the femoral head.

BackgroundPatients with depressive disorder commonly experience sleep disturbances. Previous studies have indicated that group exercise therapy is beneficial in alleviating depressive symptom among patients with depressive disorder. However， there is a lack of research on the impact of group exercise therapy on improving sleep quality in patients with depressive disorder. ObjectiveTo explore the impact of group exercise therapy on sleep quality in patients with acute mild-to-moderate depression during the acute phase， so as to provide references for clinically improving the sleep quality of patients with mild to moderate depressive disorder during the acute phase. MethodsFrom December 2018 to July 2021， patients with mild-to-moderate depressive disorder during the acute phase （n=40）， who met the diagnostic criteria for depressive disorder according to International Classification of Diseases， tenth edition （ICD-10） ，were recruited from the outpatient clinic of Beijing Anding Hospital， Capital Medical University. All participants underwent an 8-week moderate-intensity group exercise therapy program comprising three sessions per week， each lasting 60 minutes. Assessments were conducted at baseline and after 2， 4， 6 and 8 weeks of intervention using Visual Analogue Scale （VAS）， Hamilton Depression Scale-17 item （HAMD-17） and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index （PSQI）. The reduction scores at each time point relative to baseline treated as the dependent variables， time as the independent variable， baseline scores as covariates， with time as a fixed effect and baseline values as random effects. Data were analyzed using a linear mixed-effects model. ResultsThe PSQI scores of patients at baseline， 2， 4 ， 6 and 8 weeks after the intervention were （10.62±5.12）， （9.07±3.58）， （7.39±3.66）， （6.54±3.84） and （5.50±3.41）， respectively. The results of linear mixed effect model analysis showed that after 2， 4， 6 and 8 weeks of intervention， patients scored lower than baseline， with statistically significant differences observed in all cases （P<0.01）. The HAMD-17 sleep fcctor scores at baseline， 2， 4， 6 and 8 weeks were （2.25±1.56）， （2.06±1.49）， （1.36±1.27）， （1.22±1.46） and （0.97±1.34）， respectively. The results of linear mixed effects model analysis showed that the HAMD-17 sleep factor scores of 4， 6 and 8 weeks of intervention were lower than that of baseline， and the difference was statistically significant （P<0.05 or 0.01）. The VAS scores at baseline， 2， 4， 6 and 8 weeks after the intervention were （3.18±2.17）， （4.74±2.22）， （6.01±2.31）， （6.54±2.16） and （7.90±1.64）， respectively. The results of linear mixed effect model analysis showed that VAS scores of 2， 4， 6 and 8 weeks of intervention were higher than baseline，and the difference was statistically significant （P<0.01）.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.

Objective:To explore the application effect of laparoscopic surgery skills training course in the standardized residency training of surgery.Methods:A total of 40 standardized trainees of surgical residents rotating in general surgery were selected as the research objects, and randomly divided into the experimental group and the control group. The experimental group was offered laparoscopic surgery skills training course. The course content includes theoretical teaching module, simulated teaching module, virtual teaching module and clinical surgery practice teaching module. The control group was taught by traditional theory teaching and clinical surgery practice teaching. At the end of the courses, the two groups of students were assessed for their skills in laparoscopic grasping and pass, suture and knotting. At the same time, a questionnaire survey was conducted among the students and teachers. The t-test was performed using SPSS 22.0 statistical software. Results:The theoretical scores of the experimental and control groups were (67.90±13.24) and (69.70±13.46), respectively, with no statistically significant difference ( P > 0.05). After the courses, the performance of grasping and pass, suture and knotting of the experimental group (15.25±3.24 and 5.45±2.14) was higher than that of the control group (11.25±2.12 and 2.75±1.16), and the difference was statistically significant ( P < 0.01).The questionnaire survey showed that the proportion of "better" feedback from students and teachers on laparoscopic skills training courses was significantly higher than that of "general" and "poor". Conclusion:The laparoscopic surgery skills training course can improve the laparoscopic surgery skills of the trainees in the standardized residency training of surgery, shorten the learning curve, and make the training standardized and homogeneous. It is worthy of wide promotion and application in the standardized training base.

Nowadays, various countries have developed guidelines/consensus on the diagnosis and treatment of alopecia areata. Differences between these guidelines/consensus may reflect differences in backgrounds, research status, medical resources and clinical traditions among countries. This review compares Chinese and international guidelines/consensus on the diagnosis and treatment of alopecia areata in the past 3 years, and analyzes the epidemiology, etiology, diagnosis, severity assessment methods and treatment of alopecia areata, so as to provide a reference for standardized and individualized diagnosis and treatment of alopecia areata in China.

Traditional therapies for alopecia areata, especially moderate to severe alopecia areata and special types of alopecia areata, remain unsatisfactory. Compared with traditional therapies, small-molecule targeted drugs and biological agents have advantages of a more rapid onset of action and more marked efficacy, however, some patients may experience adverse reactions such as infections during treatment or relapses after drug withdrawal. Thus, their efficacy and safety still need to be further evaluated. This review summarizes research progress in small-molecule targeted drugs and biological agents in the treatment of alopecia areata.

Results: The eukaryotic expression plasmid pcDNA3. 1-p100Rb-FLAG and pcDNA3. 1-p80Rb-FLAG were constructed successfully. p100Rbwas mainly located in the nucleus while p80Rbwas mainly located in the cytoplasm,in U2OS cells. Rb,p100Rband p80Rbcould be overexpressed in HEK 293T cells. Following overexpression of Rb,p100Rbin HEK 293T cells,the percentage of G1phase of cell cycle significantly increased compared with the control group,and p100Rband p80Rbinhibited apoptosis compared with control group(P<0. 05). Conclusion Overexpression of p100rb can inhibit the apoptosis of HEK 293T cells and block the cell cycle. Overexpression of p80rb can inhibit the apoptosis of HEK 293T cells,but has no effect on cell cycle.

Objective:To explore the association of dietary pattern and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) risk.Methods:In 2013, 3 747 participants from 87 coalmine branches of a large coal mine group in Datong City, Shanxi Province were selected by using a two-stage cluster stratified sampling method. Data on demographic characteristics, smoking, drinking, and family history of diabetes were collected by using a self-made questionnaire, and the International Physical Activity Questionnaire was used to assess the level of physical activity. Physical, glucose and lipid metabolism indicators were measured and subjects were divided into high-risk groups and low-risk groups of T2DM according to the T2DM risk score. Dietary data were collected by using Semi-quantitative Food Frequency Questionnaire, and dietary patterns were derived by using the exploratory factor analysis and cluster analysis. The unconditional logistic regression model was used to assess the association of dietary patterns and T2DM risk.Results:The age of the subjects was(41.48±8.62) years old, and 2 843 of them were males (84.31%). A total of 1 819 subjects were in the high-risk group and 1 553 in the low-risk group. Four dietary patterns, healthy diet, high-salt diet, meats diet, and carbohydrate-rich diet, were identified in this study. The unconditional logistic regression analysis showed that compared with the healthy diet pattern, after the adjustment of demographic characteristics, smoking, and drinking, the OR (95% CI) of T2DM risk in high-salt diet, carbohydrate-rich diet and meats diet patterns was 1.54 (1.26-1.88), 1.80 (1.43-2.28) and 1.20 (0.99-1.46), respectively. Conclusion:High-salt diet and carbohydrate-rich diet were positively associated with T2DM risk, whereas there was no association of meats diet and T2DM risk.
