Joinpoint regression analysis showed an average annual reduction of 8.58% in the prevalence of human schistosomiasis in Wuhan City from 2005 to 2023 [average annual percent change (AAPC) = -8.58%, 95% confidence interval (CI): (-10.02%, -6.65%), P < 0.01], with two joinpoints in 2013 and 2016, respectively, and the tendency towards a decline showed statistical significance during the period from 2013 through 2016 [annual percent change (APC) = -34.41%, 95% CI: (-40.36%, -20.01%), P < 0.01]. The prevalence of S. japonicum human infections appeared an average annual reduction of 51.91% in Wuhan City from 2005 to 2023 [AAPC = -51.91%, 95% CI: (-58.12%, -44.25%), P < 0.01], with two joinpoints in 2014 and 2017, respectively, and the tendency towards a decline showed statistical significance during the period from 2014 through 2017 [APC = -98.17%, 95% CI: (-99.17%, -90.87%), P < 0.01]. The prevalence of S. japonicum infections in bovines appeared an average annual reduction of 53.12% in Wuhan City from 2005 to 2023 [AAPC = -53.12%, 95% CI: (-59.65%, -42.44%), P < 0.01], with two joinpoints in 2011 and 2014, respectively, and the tendency towards a decline showed statistical significance during the period from 2014 through 2017 [APC = -98.63%, 95% CI: (-99.44%, -90.93%), P < 0.01]. The areas of S. japonicum-infected snail habitats appeared an average annual reduction of 47.09% in Wuhan City from 2005 to 2023 [AAPC = -47.09%, 95% CI: (-52.92%, -38.26%), P < 0.01], with two joinpoints in 2011 and 2014, respectively, and the tendency towards a decline showed statistical significance during the period from 2011 through 2014 [APC = -97.27%, 95% CI: (-98.65%, -88.06%), P < 0.01]. The areas of snail habitats in inner embankments appeared an average annual reduction of 4.45% in Wuhan City from 2005 to 2023 [AAPC = -4.45%, 95% CI: (-5.18%, -3.82%), P < 0.01], with three joinpoints in 2011, 2015 and 2018, respectively, and statistical significance was seen in the tendency towards a decline during the period from 2005 through 2011 [APC = -16.38%, 95% CI: (-20.15%, -14.25%), P < 0.01]. In addition, the actual areas of snail habitats appeared an average annual reduction of 2.65% in Wuhan City from 2005 to 2023 [AAPC = -2.65%, 95% CI: (-2.89%, -2.40%), P < 0.01], with a joinpoint in 2013, and the tendency towards a decline showed statistical significance during the period from 2013 through 2023 [APC = -4.06%, 95% CI: (-4.66%, -3.58%), P < 0.01]. Conclusions The integrated schistosomiasis control programme achieved significant effectiveness in Wuhan City from 2005 to 2023, with a tendency towards a decline in morbidity due to schistosomiasis in humans and livestock and snail status. The integrated schistosomiasis control strategy with emphasis on management of the source of S. japonicum infections should continue to be implemented to consolidate the schistosomiasis control achievements and achieve the goal of schistosomiasis elimination in the city.

		                        			Objective:To investigate the predictive ability of Glypican-3 (GPC3) positive hepatocellular carcinoma based on the hepatobiliary specific contrast agent gadoxetate disodium enhancement of the liver imaging reporting and data system version 2018 (LI-RADS v2018) imaging features, and to assess the relevant clinical imaging features for postoperative recurrence in GPC3 positive HCC patients.Methods:This study was a cohort study. A total of 122 hepatocellular carcinoma patients who underwent gadoxetate disodium enhanced MRI examination with hepatic tumor resection in Henan Provincial People′s Hospital from January 2017 to December 2021 were retrospectively collected, including 96 GPC3 positive and 26 GPC3 negative patients. The imaging features defined by LI-RADS v2018 of HCC lesions were analyzed. Patients were followed up for 40 months to determine recurrence free survival (RFS). The logistic regression was used to analyze the risk factors of GPC3 positivity. An imaging model, and a clinical-imaging model which combined the patient′s alpha-fetoprotein levels were constructed. The efficacy of the model for predicting GPC3 positivity was assessed using receiver operating characteristic curves. Kaplan-Meier method was used to draw the survival curve, and the log-rank test was used to compare the RFS between GPC3 positive and negative patients. Risk factors affecting the recurrence of GPC3 positive HCC were assessed by Cox regression.Results:The results of logistic multivariate regression analysis confirmed that rim enhancement ( OR=5.685, 95% CI 1.229-26.287, P=0.026) and irregular tumor margin at hepatobiliary phase ( OR=4.431, 95% CI 1.684-11.663, P=0.003) were independent risk factors for GPC3 positive HCC. The area under the curve for predicting GPC3 positivity was 0.745 (95% CI 0.636-0.854) for the imaging model and 0.776 (95% CI 0.677-0.876) for the clinical-imaging model. The mean RFS in the GPC3 positive group was 22 months, and it was 32 months in the negative group. There was a statistically significant difference in RFS between the two groups ( χ2=5.15, P=0.023). The multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that the arterial rim enhancement ( HR=5.460, 95% CI 1.966-15.162, P=0.001), microvascular invasion ( HR=2.402, 95% CI 1.210-4.769, P=0.012), portal vein tumor thrombus ( HR=3.226, 95% CI 1.114-9.344, P=0.031) were independent risk factors for recurrence after hepatic tumor resection for GPC3-positive HCC. Conclusions:A model based on the LI-RADS v2018 imaging features of hepatobiliary specific contrast agent gadoxetate disodium enhancement can effectively predict GPC3 positive HCC. The arterial rim enhancement, microvascular invasion and portal vein tumor thrombus are independent risk factors for postoperative recurrence of GPC3 positive HCC.

		                        			ObjectiveTo investigate the therapeutic effect of Dayuanyin on acute lung injury induced by H1N1 infection and decipher the potential mechanism. MethodThe constituents in Dayuanyin were analyzed by ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole-exactive orbitrap mass spectrometry (UHPLC-Q-Exactive Orbitrap MS). Forty-eight female BALB/c mice were randomized into normal, model, oseltamivir (19.5 mg·kg-1), and low-, medium-, and high-dose (2.73, 5.46, 10.92 g·kg-1) Dayuanyin groups. The normal and model groups were administrated with deionized water by gavage, and the other groups were administrated with the corresponding drugs by gavage. On day 3 of drug administration, the normal group received nasal inhalation of normal saline, and the other groups were inoculated intranasally with A/RP/8/34 (H1N1) for the modeling of influenza virus infection. Mice were administrated with drugs continuously for 7 days and weighed daily. Sampling was performed 12 h after the last administration, and the lung tissue was weighed to calculate the lung index. Hematoxylin-eosin staining was performed to observe the pathological and morphological changes of the lung tissue and bronchi. The cytometric bead array (CBA) was used to measure the serum levels of interferon-gamma (IFN-γ), C-X-C motif ligand 1 (CXCL1), tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), chemokine ligand 2 (CCL2), interleukin-12p70 (IL-12p70), chemokine ligand 5 (CCL5), interleukin-1β (IL-1β), chemokine (C-X-C motif) ligand 10 (CXCL10), granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF), interleukin-10 (IL-10), interferon-beta (IFN-β), interferon-alpha (IFN-α), and interleukin-6 (IL-6). According to the results of mass spectrometry and network pharmacology, we analyzed the mechanism of Dayuanyin in treating acute lung injury caused by H1N1. The protein levels of extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 (ERK1/2), p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (p38 MAPK), nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB), and their phosphorylated forms were determined by Western blot. The mRNA levels of myeloid differentiation factor 88 (MyD88), Toll-like receptor 3 (TLR3), Toll-like receptor 7 (TLR7), and Toll-like receptor 8 (TLR8) in the lung tissue were measured by Real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (Real-time PCR). ResultA total of 57 compounds, including paeoniflorin and baicalein, were detected in Dayuanyin. Compared with the normal group, the model group showed decreased body weight (P<0.01), lung edema and hemorrhage, increased lung index (P<0.01), and elevated levels of IFN-γ, IL-12p70, CCL5, IL-1β, CXCL10, GM-CSF, IFN-β, and IL-6 (P<0.01). Compared with the model group, Dayuanyin attenuated alveolar wall thickening, capillary congestion, and immune cell infiltration, reduced the alterations in body weight and lung index (P<0.01), and down-regulated the protein levels of IFN-γ, IL-12p70, CCL5, IL-1β, CXCL10, GM-CSF, IFN-β, and IL-6 (P<0.01). A total of 57 key genes were predicted by network pharmacological analysis, of which the MAPK signaling pathway was the main target signaling pathway. Compared with the normal group, the model group showed up-regulation in the protein levels of phosphorylation (p)-ERK1/2, p-p38 MAPK, and p-NF-κB (P<0.01) and the mRNA levels of TLR7, TLR8, MyD88, and TLR3 (P<0.05, P<0.01). Compared with the model group, Dayuanyin lowered the phosphorylation levels of ERK1/2, p38 MAPK, and NF-κB p65 in a dose-dependent manner (P<0.01) and down-regulated the mRNA levels of TLR3, TLR7, TLR8, and MyD88 (P<0.01). ConclusionDayuanyin can prevent and control H1N1 infection-induced acute lung injury by inhibiting the TLR/MAPK/NF-κB signaling pathway.

Participants in the intervention group (20 communities, 523 people) received Ba Duan Jin exercise 5 days/week, 1 hour/day for 6 months, and three times of falls prevention health education, and the control group (20 communities, 505 people) received falls prevention health education same as the intervention group. The Berg balance scale (BBS) score was the leading outcome indicator, and the secondary outcome indicators included the length of time of standing on one foot (with eyes open and closed), standing in a tandem stance (with eyes open and closed), the closed circle test, and the timed up to test.Results:A total of 1 028 participants were included in the final analysis, including 731 women (71.11%) and 297 men (28.89%), and the age was (69.87±5.67) years. After the 3-month intervention, compared with the baseline data, the BBS score of the intervention group was significantly higher than the control group by 3.05 (95% CI: 2.23-3.88) points ( P<0.001). After the 6-month intervention, compared with the baseline data, the BBS score of the intervention group was significantly higher than the control group by 4.70 (95% CI: 4.03-5.37) points ( P<0.001). Ba Duan Jin showed significant improvement ( P<0.05) in all secondary outcomes after 6 months of exercise in the intervention group compared with the control group. Conclusions:This study showed that Ba Duan Jin exercise can improve balance in community-dwelling older adults aged 60-80. The longer the exercise time, the better the improvement.
