Objective To predict the radiation impact of discharging wastewater containing uranium within the specified limit generated during the normal operation of a new production line at a nuclear fuel plant on the receiving water body and its downstream, and to provide a reference for the management of radioactive liquid effluent discharge from nuclear facilities. Methods Based on the technical guidelines for environmental impact assessment, literature on radiation environmental impact assessment, and data collected from on-site investigations, appropriate hydrological parameters and prediction models were selected to analyze and predict the variation pattern of radioactive nuclide uranium along the receiving water body and the radiation exposure of nearby residents. Results The maximum increase in uranium concentration in the receiving water body and its downstream caused by the discharge of uranium-containing wastewater was 1.14 μg/L. The maximum predicted concentration was 2.75 μg/L after adding the background data of the water body. The resulting maximum individual annual effective dose for the public was 1.49 × 10−4 mSv/a. Conclusion The maximum predicted uranium concentration in the receiving water body and its downstream is lower than the uranium concentration limit of 30 μg/L specified in the Standards for Drinking Water Quality (GB 5749-2022). The maximum individual annual effective dose for the public is much lower than the control value of 0.2 mSv/a specified in the Radiation Protection Regulations for Uranium Processing and Fuel and Fuel Manufacturing Facilities (EJ 1056-2018). The radiation impact is acceptable.

Objective: To summarize the laboratory findings of a case of hemolytic disease of the fetus and newborn (HDFN) caused by Rh system anti-c antibodies and to review the literature, so as to explore the characteristics of anti-c HDFN. Methods: The ABO blood type, Rh blood type, direct antiglobulin test (DAT) results, and the presence of unexpected antibodies and their titers were determined by serological methods. The cases of anti-c HDFN in our laboratory in China and abroad were statistically analyzed, and the incidence of severe HDFN caused by anti-c, anti-D and anti-E was compared. Results: The blood type of the child was B (Rh CcDee) with a positive DAT. Anti-c antibody was detected in both serum and eluate, with a serum antibody titer of 4. The mother’s blood type was AB (Rh CCDee) with a negative DAT, and anti-c antibody was detected in the serum with a titer of 128. Among 20 cases of anti-c HDFN, 17 were DAT positive, and 9 (45%, 9/20) underwent blood transfusion or exchange transfusion. The incidence of severe HDFN was 47.60% (10/21) for anti-c, 47.60% (10/21) for anti-D and 31.30% (5/16) for anti-E. Conclusion: Maternal pregnancy and/or blood transfusion are the main reasons for the production of Rh alloantibodies such as anti-c. The prevention and management of anti-c should be similar to that of anti-D. Rh antigen-matched (five antigens of Rh blood group) transfusion is necessary for women of childbearing age to avoid antibody production, and Rh typing and antibody screening during prenatal examination is recommended to ensure early detection, intervention and treatment.

The discussion on the connotation of children’s subjectivity is not only a response to the lack of children’s subjectivity at the current stage of health management, but also a reference for children’s medical science popularization. Based on the perspective of social critical theory, this study used empirical research methods to review the "Dream Medical College" project of Children’s Hospital of Fudan University. The current situation and influencing factors of health management experience of 1 520 children participating in the "Dream Medical College" project were analyzed. The study showed that 96.35% of 1 316 subjects had diagnosis and treatment experience in specialized hospitals, and the overall negative emotional performance was at a low level (0~12 points). There was significant correlation between diagnosis and treatment, invasive experience and children’s emotional performance (P<0.05). The study revealed that the diagnosis and treatment field is the main practice place of children’s health management, while the subjective of children with different diagnosis and experience perform significantly different. Children over 4 years old have better language anxiety than physical anxiety when receiving diagnosis and treatment. Although medical science popularization is an important practical form of children’s health management, it lacks the science popularization content of invasive diagnosis and treatment and emotional management, and creative popular science form is more suitable for children with long-term and frequent diagnosis and treatment experience.

OBJECTIVE
To investigate the multi-target mechanism of action of Poecilobdella manillensis lyophilized powder(SZ) against hyperuricemia(HUA) based on network pharmacology and transcriptomics approaches, combined with animal experiments.
METHODS
Utilizing Symmap, SwissTargetPrediction, and Pharmmapper databases, the potential active components and corresponding targets of SZ were obtained. Through the Gene Cards and OMIM databases, HUA-related targets were obtained. By taking the intersection mapping, the common targets of SZ and HUA were identified. Cytoscape 3.9.0 software was used to construct a drug component-disease target interaction network, and in combination with the STRING database, a protein interaction network was built and core targets were screened. The DAVID database was used to perform GO biological function annotation and KEGG pathway enrichment analysis on the intersecting targets. A mouse model of HUA was constructed using potassium oxyzate combined with high purine diet, and the effects of SZ on these mice were examined using ELISA and biochemical index detection. qRT-PCR was used to validate the results of RNA-Seq and network pharmacology enrichment analysis.
RESULTS
Network pharmacological analysis identified 11 major bioactive substances in SZ and 72 potential targets involved in the treatment of hyperuricemia, involving multiple biological processes and different signaling pathways. It was shown that SZ significantly reduced serum uric acid, creatinine and urea nitrogen levels in hyperuricemic mice by inhibiting xanthineoxidase activity. SZ also reduced the levels of URAT1 while increasing the levels of ABCG2. RNA sequencing analysis revealed that there were 112, 536 and 107 differentially expressed genes in the model group vs treated group, control group vs model group and control group vs treated group, respectively. qRT-PCR results indicated that SZ downregulated the expression of genes related to Th17 cell differentiation as well as mRNA of genes on IL-17 and PI3K/Akt signaling pathways.
CONCLUSION
SZ has therapeutic effects on hyperuricemia. The mechanism of action maybe related to the inhibition of hepatic xanthineoxidase activity, down-regulation of URAT1 levels, up-regulation of ABCG2 levels, affecting the differentiation of Th17 cells and thus the IL-17 signaling pathway, thereby reducing the inflammatory response.
