Objective To analyze the activity concentrations of gross α, gross β, and radionuclides in atmospheric fallout around Daya Bay Nuclear Power Plant from 2019 to 2022, and provide foundational scientific data for the healthy development of nuclear energy. Methods Five monitoring sites were set up at different distances (1.2, 6.9, 12.4, 42.3, and 69.2 km) from Daya Bay Nuclear Island 1. Stainless steel sampling barrels were used to collect atmospheric fallout, with a monitoring cycle of three months. The collected samples were ashed using radiochemical method. Subsequently, the gross α and gross β radioactivity were quantified using a low-background α/β measurement instrument. The remaining ash samples were mixed with water and left to equilibrate for over three weeks before γ-nuclide analysis using a low-background, high-purity germanium γ-spectrometer. Results The gross α activity concentration in atmospheric fallout around Daya Bay Nuclear Power Plant from 2019 to 2022 averaged (25.3 ± 10.6) Bq/m²/season and ranged from 5.8 to 73.4 Bq/m²/season. The gross α activity concentrations in sampling sites #1 to #5 were 5.8-34.4, 11.9-35.2, 14.4-46.4, 7.2-73.4, and 13.1-43.1 Bq/m²/season, respectively. The gross β activity concentration averaged (50.5 ± 23.4) Bq/m²/season and ranged from 13.9 to 139.3 Bq/m²/season. The gross β activity concentrations of sampling sites #1 to #5 were 17.1-107.4, 17.6-87.5, 25.8-102.0, 13.9-139.3, and 23.4-99.2 Bq/m²/season, resprctively. The activity concentrations of ²³⁸U, ²²⁶Ra, ²³²Th, ⁴⁰K, ²¹⁰Pb, and ⁷Be in atmospheric fallout were < lower limit of detection (LLD)-4.2, < LLD-5.8, < LLD-6.3, < LLD-42.1, < LLD-514.0, and 35.7-1761.0 Bq/m²/season, respectively. Gross α and gross β activity concentrations were significantly positively correlated with ²¹⁰Pb activity concentration (r=0.770, α < 0.001; r=0.882, α < 0.001, respectively). Gross β activity concentration showed a significant positive correlation with ⁷Be (r=0.833, α < 0.001). The activity concentrations of ⁵⁴Mn, ⁵⁷Co, ⁵⁸Co, ⁶⁰Co, ⁵⁹Fe, ⁹⁵Zr, ¹⁰³Ru, ¹⁰⁶Ru, ^110mAg, ¹³¹I, ¹³⁴Cs, ¹³⁷ Cs, ¹⁴⁰Ba and ¹⁹²Ir were lower than the LLD of the instrument, and no artificial radionuclides were detected. Conclusion The gross α and gross β radioactive activity concentrations in the atmospheric fallout in the surrounding area of Daya Bay Nuclear Power Plant during 2019-2022 were affected by natural radionuclides ²¹⁰Pb and ⁷Be, and were in the normal fluctuation ranges. No artificial radionuclides were found in the atmospheric fallout, and the Daya Bay Nuclear Power Plant was in a safe and stable state of operation.

Due to the complexity of traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） interventions and the diversity of herbal components， single-omics technologies such as genomics， transcriptomics， proteomics， and metabolomics often cannot comprehensively elucidate the scientific connotations of TCM. Multi-omics technologies driven by system biology can analyze the theoretical connotations and application mechanisms of TCM from different levels such as genes， gene expression， proteins， and metabolites， in line with the holistic view of TCM， which helps to promote the modernization of TCM. By reviewing the literature on the application of omics technologies in the field of TCM， it is found that multi-omics technologies have been widely used in TCM for syndrome differentiation， evaluation of herbal quality， elucidation of pharmacological mechanisms， and drug toxicity assessment， providing comprehensive explanations of the mechanisms of action of TCM and overcoming the limitations of single-omics technologies， and having obtained significant achievements. However， multi-omics technologies also face challenges such as high cost， difficulties in data analysis due to large data volumes， and insufficient translation of research results. In the future， it is expected that through strengthening interdisciplinary cooperation， conducting long-term and dynamic clinical research， standardizing and normalizing data analysis processes， adopting appropriate and reasonable multi-omics integration patterns， establishing multi-omics databases for TCM， revealing the individualized characteristics， therapeutic mechanisms， and disease regulatory networks of TCM， the modernization of TCM will be promoted.

Objective To explore the effect of urine mixing degree on 24-hour urinary total protein(24 h UTP)in patients with chronic kidney disease(CKD).Methods From October 1,2023 to December 31,2023,30 hospitalized patients who needed to complete 24 h UTP testing in Zhongshan Hospital,Fudan University were selected.A 5 L unified container was used to collect urine for 24 hours.After collection and one hour's standing,the urine sample was divided into upper,middle,and lower equal parts according to volume,which was defined as direct-sampling group.Then,the urine samples were fully mixed with a magnetic stirrer and sampled again according to the above-mentioned three-equal sampling method,which was defined as mixed-sampling group.The generalized estimating equation was used to compare the urinary protein concentration before and after mixing and at different sampling location.Results The results of generalized estimating equation showed that after controlling the variable"sampling position",there was no significant difference in urinary protein concentration between the direct-sampling group and the mixed-sampling group.After controlling the variable"mixing method",there was still no significant difference in urinary protein concentration at different sampling positions.After adjusting the covariates such as age,gender,and estimated glomerular filtration rate(eGFR),the results were consistent.Conclusions With standard protocol,the entire 24-hour urine sample is a relatively even-distributed solution.After the total urine collection is completed,the temporary sample can be directly extracted from any level of the original urine within 1 hour,and the urine protein concentration of the sample multiplied by the urine volume can reflect the 24 h UTR.

Objective:To analyze the clinic effects of arthroscopic partial trapeziectomy and suture button suspensionplasty in the treatment of first carpometacarpal joint (CMCJ) Eaton stage II/III arthrosis.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted on a total of 15 cases (16 hands) of patients including 5 males (1 bilateral) and 10 females with CMCJ stage II/III arthrosis who underwent surgical treatment at the first affiliated hospital of Shenzhen university from January 2020 to June 2022, with mean age of 56.7±6.4 years (range, 46-75 years). The duration from pain to treatment was 7.8±3.2 months (range, 4-14 months). X-ray showed narrowing of CMCJ with osteophytes and distal radial subluxation. All the patients were treated with arthroscopic partial trapeziectomy and suture button suspensionplasty. The preoperative and last postoperative follow-up radiographs, visual analogue scale (VAS), thumb's Kapandji scores, disabilies of the arm, shoulder, and hand (DASH) scores, grip and pinch strength and time to return to work were compared.Results:All cases were followed up for 19.6±6.3 months (range, 11-36 months). The postoperative X-ray showed all the CMCJs were reduced with a normal height of first metacarpal. The mean time for patients to return to their daily activities was 18.69±3.70 d and the mean time to return to work was 24.63±4.91 d. The average VAS score decreased from 6.56±1.15 preoperatively to 1.00 (0.75, 1.25). The preoperative Kapandji's score was 8.00±0.82 and the postoperative Kapandji's score was 8.00 (7.25, 9.00). The average DASH values improved from 24.06±3.19 to 4.00 (3.00, 5.00). The were significant differences except for Kapandji score ( Z=-4.905, P<0.001; Z=-0.121, P=0.905; Z=-4.846, P<0.001). The mean grip and pinch strength showed improvement from an average of 16.4 (14.13, 18.68) kg and 1.70±0.35 kg to 26.14±3.27 kg and 3.58±0.91 kg with significant difference ( Z=-4.617, P<0.001; t=-7.669, P<0.001). Conclusion:Arthroscopic partial trapeziectomy and suture button suspensionplasty is a minimally invasive surgery for the treatment of first CMCJ Eaton stage II/III arthrosis. By this technique, the patients' existing instability and pain problems can be solved.

Objective To investigate the predictive value of serum Actinin-4 and N-myc downscream regu-lated gene 4(NDRG4)for recurrence and metastasis in early stage lung cancer patients.Methods A total of 110 patients who underwent early lung cancer radical surgery in the hospital from January 2020 to January 2022 were collected as the study subjects.They were separated into a recurrence group of 62 patients and a non recurrence group of 48 patients based on whether they experienced recurrence or metastasis during a one-year follow-up.Enzyme-linked immunosorbnent assay(ELISA)method was applied to detect serum Actinin-4 and NDRG4 levels.Pearson and Spearman methods were used for correlation analysis.Logistic regression was applied to analyze the influencing factors of recurrence and metastasis in early stage lung cancer patients after radical surgery.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was applied to analyze the predictive value of serum Actinin-4 and NDRG4 levels for recurrence and metastasis in early stage lung cancer patients after radi-cal surgery.Results Compared with the non recurrence group,the serum Actinin-4 level in the recurrence group was obviously increased,while the NDRG4 level was obviously reduced,and there was a obvious differ-ence in TNM staging and lymph node metastasis between the two groups(P＜0.05).Pearson analysis showed that there was a negative correlation between serum Actinin-4 and NDRG4 levels in the recurrence group(r=-0.566,P＜0.05).Spearman analysis showed that Actinin-4 was positively correlated with lymph node me-tastasis and clinical staging(r=0.429,0.396,P＜0.05),while NDRG4 was negatively correlated with lymph node metastasis and clinical staging(r=-0.411,-0.431,P＜0.05).Logistic regression analysis showed that lymph node metastasis,clinical staging,Actinin-4,and NDRG4 levels could all be used as influencing fac-tors for postoperative recurrence and metastasis in early stage lung cancer patients after radical surgery(P＜0.05).ROC curve analysis showed that the area under the curve(AUC)of serum Actinin-4 and NDRG4 in predicting postoperative recurrence and metastasis in early stage lung cancer patients after radical surgery was 0.857 and 0.848,respectively,and the AUC of combined prediction was 0.950,which was better than those of the two single predictions(P＜0.05).Conclusion Serum Actinin-4 level increases and NDRG4 level decrea-ses in early stage lung cancer patients with postoperative recurrence and metastasis after radical surgery.The combined detection of the two could serve as an auxiliary indicator for predicting postoperative recurrence and metastasis in early stage lung cancer patients after radical surgery.

Osteosarcoma is a common primary malignant bone tumor with highly aggressive and distal metastasis and poor prognosis. Abnormal metabolism of iron, an essential nutrient with electron-exchange capacity and an important participant in cellular activities, is closely associated with the progression of osteosarcoma. Ferroptosis has been shown to regulate osteosarcoma progression and play an important role in the treatment of osteosarcoma. Exploring the application of relevant molecular mechanisms of ferroptosis in osteosarcoma and the current status of pharmacological intervention may provide new strategies for the treatment of osteosarcoma.

The biological clock(also known as the circadian rhythm)is the fundamental reliance for all organisms on Earth to adapt and survive in the Earth's rotation environment.Circadian rhythm is the most basic regulatory mechanism of life activities,and plays a key role in maintaining normal physiological and biochemical homeostasis,disease occurrence and treatment.Recent studies have shown that the biologi-cal clock plays an important role in the development of oral tissues and in the occurrence and treatment of oral diseases.Since there is cur-rently no guiding literature on the research methods of biological clock in stomatology,researchers mainly conduct research based on pub-lished references,which has led to controversy about the research methods of biological clock in stomatology,and there are many confusions about how to rationally apply the research methods of circadia rhythms.In view of this,this expert consensus summarizes the characteristics of the biological clock and analyzes the shortcomings of the current biological clock research in stomatology,and organizes relevant experts to summarize and recommend 10 principles as a reference for the rational implementation of the biological clock in stomatology research.
