Over the past three decades， China has made significant progress in the prevention and control of viral hepatitis， and the incidence rates of new-onset pediatric hepatitis B virus infections and acute viral hepatitis in the population have reduced to a relatively low level； however， there is still a heavy disease burden of chronic viral hepatitis in China， which severely affects the health status of the population. This study systematically summarizes the achievements of viral hepatitis prevention and control in China， analyzes existing problems and challenges， and proposes comprehensive prevention and control strategies and measures to eliminate viral hepatitis as a public health threat based on the national conditions of China， in order to provide a reference for related departments in China on how to achieve the action targets for eliminating viral hepatitis as a public health threat by 2030.

Objective:To summarize the use of Castor stent graft in aortic diseases and to analyze their efficacy.Methods:The clinical data of patients with aortic diseases treated with Castor stent graft from November 2017 to August 2022 in Fujian Provincial Hospital were collected and divided into branched stent group and branched stent co-operative group according to the operation method, and the clinical data of both groups were summarized.Results:A total of 75 cases of aortic disease were treated with Castor stents, and finally 53 cases were classified as branched stent group and 22 cases as branched stent co-operative group. The operations in both groups were successful. The median operative time in the branched stent group was 120(100, 160)min, and the median postoperative hospital stay was 7.0(5.5, 10.5)days.There was no postoperative ischemic stroke, no spinal cord ischemia. One case of new aortic dissection occurred. During follow-up, there was one lost case and two deaths, and the rest did not have endoleak, branch stent stenosis, ischemic stroke or re-intervention. In the branched stent co-operative group, there was one postoperative ischemic stroke, one case of slight stenosis of the left subclavian artery stent during follow-up, the remaining cases had satisfactory postoperative outcomes.Conclusion:Castor stent graft is a safe and effective procedure in the treatment of aortic diseases. And Castor stent graft can be used in combination with other endovascular repair techniques in the treatment of complex aortic diseases, with safe and reliable postoperative outcomes.

Objective This study was to develop a"Spleen Deficiency Certificate Scale for County Residents"and test its reliability.It was then developed as an objective tool for Chinese medicine evidence and symptoms for the prevention and control of chronic diseases among county residents.Methods The scale was compiled based on the team's previous foundation.The reliability of the scale was evaluated using internal consistency reliability and split-half reliability,while its validity was evaluated using structural validity,content validity,calibration validity,and discriminant validity.Results The study included 213 adults from Lanxi,of whom 155 were tested for intestinal flora.Seven scale entries were identified:Fatigue,fear of cold,bland mouth,loss of appetite,diarrhea,weak bowel movements,and tooth-marked tongue.In the reliability test,Cronbach's alpha coefficient was 0.828 and McDonald's ω coefficient was 0.825.The"stomach pain"and"bloating"entries did not meet the inclusion requirements and were recommended to be deleted.The Spearman-Brown coefficient was 0.839.The exploratory factor analysis of the two common factors explained 61.6%of the cumulative variance.The calibration validity indicated that the ratio of salivary amylase activity before and after acid stimulation was 0.826±0.253 in the group with spleen deficiency.Significant differences(P<0.05)in the genera Dialister,Shigella,Leuconostoc,Photobacterium,Trabulsiella,and Parvimonas between the spleen deficiency group and the non-spleen deficiency group.Conclusion The Spleen Deficiency Scale for County Residents demonstrates good reliability and validity.

Objective     To analyze predictive factors, clinical implications and prognosis effects of new-onset conduction block after transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI). Methods     The clinical data of 86 patients who underwent TAVI through transfemoral approach from 2019 to 2021 in Fujian Provincial Hospital were retrospectively analyzed, including 59 males and 27 females with an average age of 72.9±8.0 years. The patients were divided into a normal group and a new-onset conduction block group according to whether there was new-onset conduction block after operation, and then the new-onset conduction block group was subdivided into a left bundle branch block (LBBB) group (28 patients) and a complete atrioventricular block (CAVB) group (11 patients). We compared the hemodynamics and TAVI-related complications between the postoperative and early follow-up periods, and used the multivariate logistic regression models to identify risk factors for the new-onset conduction block. Results     The median EuroSCORE of all patients were 8 (2) points before the operation. In the postoperative and early follow-up periods, the hemodynamics and TAVI-related complications had no statistical difference between the new-onset conduction block group and the normal group (P>0.05). The incidence of permanent pacemaker implantation (81.8%, 9/11) and mortality due to cardiac causes (18.1%, 2/11) in the CAVB group were significantly higher than those in the normal group and theLBBB group (P<0.05). Female, severe calcification of the aortic valve, too large valve size and deep valve implants were the risk factors for new-onset conduction block after TAVI. Conclusion    The incidence of LBBB and CAVB is high after TAVI, however, both of them do not significantly effect the hemodynamics of the patients. Higher incidence of permanent pacemaker implantation is found in the CAVB group which affects the rate of rehospitalization and mortality. Female patients, severe calcification of the aortic valve, too large valve size and deep valve implants are the risk factors for the new-onset conduction block after TAVI.

Objective     To investigate the effect of ginkgolide B (GB) on cysteinyl aspartate specific proteinase-3 (Caspase-3)/chromosome 10 deletion phosphatase-tension protein homologue (PTEN)/protein kinase B (Akt) pathway and cell proliferation and apoptosis in hypoxia/reoxygenation cardiomyocytes. Methods     H9C2 cells were cultured in vitro. A control group was cultured in serum-free DMEM high glucose medium at 37°C and 5% CO2 for 28 hours. The remaining groups were prepared with hypoxia/reoxygenation models. A GB low-dose group and a GB high-dose group were treated with GB pretreatment with final concentration of 50 μmol/L and 200 μmol/L respectively at 1 h before hypoxia/reoxygenation. A carvedilol group was treated with carvedilol of a final concentration of 10 μmol/L at 1 h before hypoxia/reoxygenation. The proliferation and apoptosis of H9C2 cells were detected, and the levels of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), malondialdehyde (MDA), reactive oxygen species (ROS), PTEN, Akt, phosphorylated Akt (p-Akt) and Caspase-3 in H9C2 cells were also detected. Results     Compared with the control group, the proliferation rate of H9C2 cell, and the levels of PTEN, Akt and p-Akt in other groups decreased, and the apoptosis rate, and the levels of LDH, MDA, ROS and Caspase-3 increased (P<0.05). Compared with the hypoxia/reoxygenation group, the proliferation rate of H9C2 cell, and the levels of PTEN, Akt and p-Akt in all GB dose groups and the carvedilol group increased; the apoptosis rate, and the levels of LDH, MDA, ROS and Caspase-3 decreased, and the effect of GB was in a dose dependent manner; however, the effect of GB was not as strong as carvedilol (P<0.05). Conclusion     GB can inhibit H9C2 cell apoptosis and promote H9C2 cell proliferation by activating Caspase-3/PTEN/Akt pathway.

Objective To study the effectiveness and safety of prophylactic anticoagulation in the prevention of portal venous thrombosis (PVST) in patients after laparoscopic splenectomy.Methods A systematic search of the PubMed,Embase,Cochrane Library,Sinomed,Wangfang,Weipu and CNKI databases was performed to identify studies which compared outcomes in patients with or without prophylactic anticoagulation after laparoscopic splenectomy.The quality of the included studies was assessed using the Cochrane collaboration tool and the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale.Heterogeneity was evaluated using the x2 and I2 tests.The primary outcome was the incidence of postoperative PVST.Results Five studies were included into this review,which involved 206 and 168 patients with or without prophylactic anticoagulation,respectively.The incidence of PVST was significantly reduced with prophylactic anticoagulation with an odds ratio (OR) of 0.32 [95％ confidence interval (CI),0.13 ～0.79,P＜0.05].Conclusion Prophylactic anticoagulation resulted in a significant reduced incidence of PVST after laparoscopic splenectomy.

Objective To investigate the impact of combined postoperative transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) with antiviral therapy in hepatitis B-related hepatocellular carcinoma (HBV-HCC) patients with high risks of recurrence.Methods Fifty-three consecutive patients who underwent curative resection of HBV-HCC between January 2014 to February 2016 were enrolled.These patients were assigned to either the adjuvant antiviral therapy combined with TACE group (n =32),the treatment group or the no adjuvant treatment group (n =21,the control group).The recurrence-free survival (RFS) and overall survival (OS) were analyzed.Results There was no significant difference between the two groups in clinical characteristics (P＞0.05).The recurrence-free survival (RFS) (mean±S.D.) was (20.1 ± 1.8) months in the treatment group and (18.7±2.4) months in the control group (P=0.752).The 1-,2-and 3-year RFS rates of the treatment group and the control group were 65.6％ vs.57.1％,31.3％ vs.28.6％ and 15.6％ vs.14.3％,respectively (P＞0.05).The overall survival (OS) (mean±S.D.) was (26.8± 1.7) months in the treatment group and (21.1±2.2) months in the control group (P=0.037).The 1-,2-and 3-year RFS rates were 65.6％ vs.57.1％,31.3％ vs.28.6％ and 15.6％ vs.14.3％ in the treatment group and the control group,respectively.The 1-,2-,and 3-year OS rates were 87.5％ vs.66.7％,59.4％ vs.38.1％ and 43.8％ vs.19.0％ in the treatment group and the control group,respectively.Conclusion Antiviral therapy in combination with TACE did not decrease the RFS rate,but it improved the OS rate in HCC patients with high risks of recurrence.
