Background The Qingcaosha Reservoir is facing issues of algal blooms and eutrophication, and the resulting increase in the level of chlorination disinfection by-products in the water has been a major concern. Objective To evaluate the impact of "Algae Monitoring and Control Program in Qingcaosha Reservoir" (hereinafter referred to as the program) on the control of trihalomethanes (THMs) in conventional finished water. Methods From 2011 to 2019, water samples were collected from the Lujiazui Water Plant once per season, one sample each time, and the concentrations of four THMs (trichloromethane, dichlorobromomethane, monochlorodibromomethane, and tribromomethane) were measured in the samples. Using 2014 when the program was implemented as a cut-off point, the entire study period was divided into two phases: pre-implementation (2011–2013) and post-implementation(2014–2019). Segmented linear regression with interrupted time series analysis was applied to assess the concentrations and trends of THMs in the finished water before and after the program launch. Results The concentration of total THMs in finished water increased by 1.561 µg·L⁻¹ (P=0.010) for each season of time extension before launching the program. The change in the concentration of total THMs in finished water was not statistically significant after the program launch, but the THMs concentration showed a decreasing trend as the slope was −0.626 (P=0.001). From 2017 until the end of 2019, the average concentration of THMs in finished water of Lujiazui Water Plant dropped to 10 μg·L⁻¹ or less. Conclusions The algae and eutrophication control measures in Qingcaosha Reservoir have achieved good results, controlling THMs in finished water at a low level, and the trend of THMs has changed from a yearly increase pattern before the program to a yearly decrease pattern after the program.

Objective To investigate the role of microRNA(miR)-567 in the proliferation,migration and cell cycle of non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC)through regulation of cyclin dependent kinase 8(CDK8)and its clinical relevance.Methods Tumor tissues and adjacent tissues of 40 NSCLC patients were collected,and the expressions of miR-567 and CDK8 were detected by real-time quantitative fluorescent PCR(qRT-PCR).miR-NC mimic,miR-567 mimic,oe-NC,and oe-CDK8 were transfected into A549 and H1975 cells.The ex-pressions of miR-567 and CDK8 were detected using qRT-PCR.Cell proliferation was detected by CCK-8 method,and cell migration was detected by Transwell assay.Cell cycle changes were detected by flow cytome-try.The targeting of miR-567 and CDK8 was detected by luciferase reporter gene assay.Results In the tumor tissues of NSCLC patients,the expression of miR-567 was decreased,while the expression of CDK8 was in-creased,and the two were negatively correlated(P＜0.05).In A549 and H1975 cells,miR-567 mimic group was compared with miR-NC mimic group,the expression of miR-567 was increased,the expression of CDK8 was decreased,the proliferation and migration levels of cells were decreased,the proportion of G1 phase was increased,and the proportion of S phase was decreased.The fluorescence intensity of miR-567 mimic group was lower than that of miR-NC mimic group in normal CDK8.miR-567 mimic+oe-CDK8 group was compared with miR-567 mimic+oe-NC group,the expression of CDK8 was increased,the proliferation and migration levels of cells were increased,the proportion of cells in G1 phase was decreased,and the proportion of cells in S phase was increased.Conclusion miR-567 can inhibit NSCLC proliferation and migration by targeting CDK8 expression and controlling tumor cell arrest in the S phase.

Objective:To investigate the geriatric nursing competency of undergraduate nursing interns in four schools of nursing in Beijing as well as the influencing factors, and to provide a reference for perfecting the geriatric nursing education system in colleges and universities.Methods:From October to November 2022, a cross-sectional survey was performed on 223 undergraduate nursing interns selected by convenience sampling from four schools of nursing in Beijing, with the use of a general information questionnaire and the Gerontological Nursing Competence instrument. A general linear regression model was established to explore the factors influencing the geriatric nursing competency of nursing interns.Results:The mean total score for gerontological nursing competency was (3.19±0.40). In all dimensions, the mean score was highest for "Providing a safe living environment for older persons" (3.40±0.47) and lowest for "Understanding the sexual needs of older persons" (2.78±0.73). The thought about whether gerontological nursing contents were enough and the level of motivation to study gerontological nursing courses were the factors affecting nursing interns' gerontological nursing competency ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The overall gerontological nursing competency of the nursing interns was at a medium level, with uneven competencies in different dimensions. Nursing schools should strengthen gerontological nursing course building and stimulate students' learning motivation to improve their gerontological nursing competency.

Objective:To analyze the association between the Charlson Comorbidity Index(CCI)and the risk of early in-hospital death in cerebral hemorrhage inpatients.Methods:Basic personal and medical information about sex, age, surgery, frequency of hospitalization, days of hospitalization, and ICD-10 diagnosis code was collected for intracerebral hemorrhage patients aged 60 or above admitted to a tertiary general hospital from January 1, 2017 to December 31, 2019.The CCI score was calculated based on diagnoses at the time of discharge.Using the CCI score as the dependent variable and in-hospital death as the independent variable, univariate and multiple logistic regression analysis was conducted to examine the association between CCI and in-hospital death.The receiver operator characteristic curve(ROC)was used to assess the value of CCI in predicting death.Results:A total of 504 cerebral hemorrhage inpatients were included in the study, with an average age of 69.48±7.55 years, and 52 died during the period.Univariate Logistic regression showed that, compared with inpatients with CCI=3, the OR values(95% CI)for inpatients with CCI=4 and CCI≥5 were 2.145(1.056-4.355)and 4.769(2.168-10.494), respectively.Multiple Logistic regression showed that, compared with inpatients with CCI=3, the OR(95% CI)for inpatients with CCI≥5 was 4.453(1.474-13.456), The area under the ROC curve was 0.718, with 95% CI at 0.642-0.793( P<0.001). Conclusions:The CCI score was associated with the risk of early in-hospital death in elderly patients with cerebral hemorrhage and can be used to assess and predict the risk of early in-hospital death for these patients.

【Objective】 To analyze the data of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) gene chip using the bioinformatics method, screen differential expression genes (DEGs), and explore the biomarkers related to the prognosis of NSCLC so as to provide a new target for the treatment of NSCLC. 【Methods】 The NSCLC gene chip data were downloaded from the GEO database and the common DEGs in the two datasets were screened by GEO2R tool and FunRich3.1.3 software. The DAVID database was used in GO analysis and KEGG analysis of the DEGs. The protein-protein interaction (PPI) network was constructed using the STRING database; Cytoscape 3.8.0 software was used to select the top 20 hub genes. Then Kaplan-Meier plotter was used to analyze the prognosis of the identified hub genes, and multiple external databases were used to verify the expressions of the hub genes and their relationship with prognosis. 【Results】 A total of 159 intersect DEGs were screened from the two datasets. A total of 20 hub genes were identified via PPI network. Survival analysis and validation results from multiple external databases showed that SPP1 was highly expressed in NSCLC tumor tissues and was significantly correlated with the patients’ poor prognosis (P<0.05). The subgroup analysis showed that SPP1 might cause the poor prognosis by affecting lymph node metastasis. 【Conclusion】 SPP1 may be a biomarker for evaluating the prognosis of NSCLC patients, providing a new idea for the targeted therapy of NSCLC.
