ObjectiveTo analyze the epidemic characteristics of measles and rubella in Pudong New Area of Shanghai from 2013 to 2022, and to provide data support for the elimination of measles and rubella. MethodsEnzyme linked immunosorbent assay was used to detect IgM antibodies in serum samples. The sequence of 630 nucleotides at the C-terminal of N gene of measles virus was amplified by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction and the phylogenic tree was constructed. ResultsA total of 1 529 suspected cases of measles were detected from 2013 to 2022, among which the positive rate of measles IgM antibody was 33.55% (513/1 529). The highest positive rate (20.73%) was from March to May , and the positive rate of rubella IgM antibody was 6.80% (104/1 529). The positive rate of both IgM was higher in males than that in females (P<0.05). The IgM against measles was mainly detected in 0‒ years old (63.16%, 96/152) and 20‒ years old (45.61%, 161/353). The IgM against rubella was mainly detected in 10‒20 years old (27.27%, 18/66). The IgM antibody could be detected more easily from 4 to 28 days after eruption, and the IgM antibody positive rate of measles/rubella from 2020 to 2022 was significantly lower than previous years (2013‒2019). There were 2 D8 genotype strains, and the rest were H1a gene subtypes. ConclusionThe positive rate of IgM antibodies against measles/rubella in Pudong New Area of Shanghai decreased significantly. People aged 0‒ years and 20‒ years old are more susceptible to measles, and rubella is concentrated in 10‒ years old. It is necessary to strengthen the vaccination of school-age children, in order to achieve the goal of eliminating measles. The age group with high risk of exposure should be checked for vaccination status to ensure the enhanced immunization, and the surveillance of imported measles cases should be strengthened.

Objective:To retrospectively analyze the treatment status of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) in newly diagnosed patients with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) in China.Methods:Data of chronic phase (CP) and accelerated phase (AP) CML patients diagnosed from January 2006 to December 2022 from 77 centers, ≥18 years old, and receiving initial imatinib, nilotinib, dasatinib or flumatinib-therapy within 6 months after diagnosis in China with complete data were retrospectively interrogated. The choice of initial TKI, current TKI medications, treatment switch and reasons, treatment responses and outcomes as well as the variables associated with them were analyzed.Results:6 893 patients in CP ( n=6 453, 93.6%) or AP ( n=440, 6.4%) receiving initial imatinib ( n=4 906, 71.2%), nilotinib ( n=1 157, 16.8%), dasatinib ( n=298, 4.3%) or flumatinib ( n=532, 7.2%) -therapy. With the median follow-up of 43 ( IQR 22-75) months, 1 581 (22.9%) patients switched TKI due to resistance ( n=1 055, 15.3%), intolerance ( n=248, 3.6%), pursuit of better efficacy ( n=168, 2.4%), economic or other reasons ( n=110, 1.6%). The frequency of switching TKI in AP patients was significantly-higher than that in CP patients (44.1% vs 21.5%, P<0.001), and more AP patients switched TKI due to resistance than CP patients (75.3% vs 66.1%, P=0.011). Multi-variable analyses showed that male, lower HGB concentration and ELTS intermediate/high-risk cohort were associated with lower cytogenetic and molecular responses rate and poor outcomes in CP patients; higher WBC count and initial the second-generation TKI treatment, the higher response rates; Ph + ACA at diagnosis, poor PFS. However, Sokal intermediate/high-risk cohort was only significantly-associated with lower CCyR and MMR rates and the poor PFS. Lower HGB concentration and larger spleen size were significantly-associated with the lower cytogenetic and molecular response rates in AP patients; initial the second-generation TKI treatment, the higher treatment response rates; lower PLT count, higher blasts and Ph + ACA, poorer TFS; Ph + ACA, poorer OS. Conclusion:At present, the vast majority of newly-diagnosed CML-CP or AP patients could benefit from TKI treatment in the long term with the good treatment responses and survival outcomes.

Objective:To explore whether the food additive sodium benzoate(NAB) induces pancreatic inflammation and β cell apoptosis through the benzoylation(Kbz) modification pathway.Methods:In vivo experiments: C57BL/6J male mice(8 weeks old, 18-20 g) were randomly divided into normal control group(double distilled water feeding) and NAB feeding group(1 g/kg NAB feeding). Blood glucose were measured. After 20 weeks, fasting serum insulin, interleukin(IL)-18, IL-1β, and benzoyl-CoA levels were detected by ELISA method. Bax, IL-18, Pan-Kbz and Pan-Kac were detected by immunohistochemistry staining. In vitro experiments: β-TC-6 cells were cultured with NAB(6 mmol/L) or benzoyl-CoA(100 μmol/L) as stimulator and acyltransferase P300 inhibitor A485(10 μmol/L) as intervention factor. 24 hours later, inflammation, apoptosis, insulin secretion and Pan-Kbz level were detected by qRT-PCR, ELISA and Western blotting.Results:In the in vivo experiments, compared to the NC group, mice in the NAB group exhibited impaired glucose tolerance, decreased fasting insulin levels, significantly increased serum benzoyl coenzyme A concentrations, relatively elevated pancreatic IL-1β, IL-18, and Bax protein expressions, increased levels of Pan-Kbz, while Pan-Kac levels were downregulated(all P<0.05); In vitro experiments, NAB dose-dependently inhibited insulin secretion, promoted the release of Pan-Kbz and inflammatory factors IL-18 and TNF- α, inhibited Bcl-2 expression and up-regulated Bax expression, A485 reversed NAB-induced Pan-Kbz modification, improved NAB-induced inflammation and apoptosis, and promoted insulin secretion(all P<0.05). Conclusion:NAB may induce pancreatic inflammation, β-cell apoptosis, and impair insulin secretion through Kbz modification pathway.

ObjectiveTo explore the differences between the ancient decocting methods and modern decocting method of Yihuangtang by taking the dry extract rate, the content of active ingredients and the fingerprint information as indicators, so as to provide reference for the preparation of benchmark samples and the development of compound preparations of this famous classical formula. MethodAccording to the three decocting methods recorded in Paozhi Dafa and Jianming Yigou and Management Specifications of Traditional Chinese Medicine Decoction Chambers in Medical Institutions, the Yihuangtang was decocted respectively. The polysaccharide content in the samples was determined by ultraviolet spectrophotometer (UV) at 488 nm, and the contents of alkaloids (berberine hydrochloride, phellodendrine chloride and magnoflorine) in the samples and their fingerprint profiles were determined by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), and the dry extract rate was combined to compare the differences of the three decocting methods of Yihuangtang. Among them, the fingerprint was gradient eluted with acetonitrile (A) -0.1% phosphoric acid aqueous solution (B) as mobile phase (0-10 min, 5%-8%A; 10-35 min, 8%A; 35-45 min, 8%-12% A; 45-75 min, 12%-17%A; 75-105 min, 17%-35%A; 105-110 min, 35%-100%A; 110-112 min, 100%-5%A; 112-122 min, 5%A), and the detection wavelength was 230 nm. ResultWhen the decoction was carried out according to the method described in Paozhi Dafa, the content of polysaccharides was higher than that of the modern decocting method and the method described in Jianming Yigou. However, the contents of berberine hydrochloride, phellodendrine chloride and magnoflorine were the highest in the modern decocting method. Meanwhile, the number of peaks in fingerprint of the samples prepared by the three decocting methods was basically the same, and 13 common peaks were matched, and the three common peaks of berberine hydrochloride, phellodendrine chloride and magnoflorine were identified. However, the relative peak areas of the common peaks in the fingerprint of the samples prepared by the three decocting methods varied greatly, suggesting that there were differences in the extracting effects of different decocting methods. In addition, there were also differences in the dry extract rate among the three decocting methods of Yihuangtang, and the highest value was obtained by decocting the samples according to the method recorded in Paozhi Dafa. ConclusionDecocting method can affect the dry extract rate, fingerprint information and active ingredient content of Yihuangtang, among which the modern decocting method is conducive to the extraction of alkaloids and the preparation transformation of this famous classical formula, and it is recommended to determine its preparation process by optimizing the modern decocting method.

Objective:To explore the influencing factors of psychological stress in patients with coronary heart disease, and the effect path of joint decision-making between doctors and patients on psychological stress and to provide reference for the formulation of management plan for physical and mental health of patients with coronary heart disease.Methods:From July 2017 to April 2022, 715 retired patients with coronary heart disease hospitalized in General Hospital of the People′s Liberation Army and Air Force Hospital in Western Military Theater of the People′s Liberation Army were investigated adopted cross-sectional survey method by simple random sampling using general information questionnaire, Stress Response Questionnaire, Shared Decision-making Questionnaire between Doctors and Patients, Uncertainty in Illness Scale and Simple Coping Style Questionnaire. By using structural equation modeling, the direct and indirect influence paths of shared decision-making between doctors and patients on psychological stress were analyzed.Results:The scores of psychological stress, shared decision-making, uncertainty in illness, positive coping style and negative coping style were 49.81 ± 11.06, 79.24 ± 8.68, 76.40 ± 12.56, 21.67 ± 5.51 and 8.90 ± 3.12. Correlation analysis showed that the scores of psychological stress were positively correlated with the scores of uncertainty in illness and negative coping style ( r=0.661, 0.591, both P<0.01), and negatively correlated with the scores of shared decision-making between doctors and patients and positive coping style ( r=-0.623, -0.451, both P<0.01). Path analysis showed that shared decision-making between doctors and patients had a direct effect on psychological stress, accounting for 23.81% of the total effect; the uncertainty in illness, positive coping style and negative coping style played a part of intermediary role between the joint decision-making between doctors and patients and psychological stress, accounting for 32.35%, 8.40% and 17.93% of the total effect respectively; the uncertainty in illness and negative coping style had a chain mediating effect between them, accounting for 17.51% of the total effect. Conclusions:It suggests that the shared decision-making between doctors and patients with coronary heart disease is not only directly related to psychological stress, but also indirectly related to psychological stress through uncertainty in illness and coping style, among which coping style may play a role of "pivot" to a certain extent.

Objective:To analyze the features of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) co-infected with other common respiratory pathogens among coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients in Shanghai City, and to provide a reference for scientific prevention and control of COVID-19 and other respiratory infectious diseases.Methods:Descriptive epidemiological approaches were used to analyze the data of COVID-19 reported cases in Shanghai City from January 2020 to February 2021 in the information system of Chinese Disease Prevention and Control. Clinical data of the participants were collected, and their SARS-CoV-2 nucleic acid-positive respiratory specimens were collected at the time of illness onset or admission. Multiplex reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) was performed to detect the 22 respiratory pathogens. Independent-samples t test was used for statistical analysis. Results:Of the 272 patients with COVID-19, 15(5.5%) had co-infection of SARS-CoV-2 with other respiratory pathogens, all of which were double infection. There were three cases infected with enterovirus/rhinovirus, two of each with adenovirus, human metapneumovirus and coronavirus NL63/HKU1, and one of each with coronavirus 229E, influenza A virus H1N1, parainfluenza virus 1 and respiratory syncytial virus B. Two cases infected with Mycoplasma pneumoniae. Among the 272 COVID-19 patients, 212(77.9%) had fever, 117(43.0%) had cough, 46(16.9%) had fatigue, and 35(12.9%) had sore throat. The white blood cell count of co-infection cases was higher than that of non-co-infection cases ((6.8±1.7)×10 9/L vs (5.3±1.6)×10 9/L), and the difference was statistically significant ( t=3.09, P=0.008). Conclusions:There is a certain proportion of co-infection of SARS-CoV-2 with other respiratory pathogens among the COVID-19 cases in Shanghai City, mainly viral pathogens, especially enterovirus/rhinovirus. A rational combination of drugs was recommended to improve the cure rate. Surveillance of acute respiratory infection should be further strengthened as well.
