Gouty arthritis （GA） is an inflammatory disorder caused by monosodium urate （MSU） crystal deposition， accompanied by elevated oxidative stress and aberrant release of inflammatory cytokines， resulting in joint tissue damage and intense pain. Nuclear factor E₂-related factor 2 （Nrf2）， a key transcription factor regulating the antioxidant defence system， exerts cytoprotective effects through dissociation from Kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1 （Keap1） and activates downstream antioxidant response element （ARE）-mediated pathways. It can upregulate the expression of heme oxygenase-1 （HO-1）， NADH quinone oxidoreductase 1 （NQO1）， superoxide dismutase （SOD）， and glutathione transferase （GST） to preserve redox homeostasis. Moreover， Nrf2 can suppress activation of NOD-like receptor protein 3 （NLRP3） inflammasomes， reduce pro-inflammatory cytokine production and release， modulate nuclear factor-κB （NF-κB） transcriptional activity， regulate gut microbiota balance， enhance mitophagy， and inhibit apoptosis， so as to reduce joint inflammation and pain and promote body recovery. This review systematically examined recent advancements in traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） for GA prevention and treatment via regulating the Nrf2 signaling pathway. It delineated Nrf2's molecular mechanisms and its role in GA pathogenesis and elucidated how TCM intervenes in multiple pathways including Keap1/Nrf2/ARE， Nrf2/HO-1（NQO1）， and Nrf2/NF-κB/NLRP3 to exert therapeutic effects. The study demonstrated that TCM monomers and compounds effectively counteract oxidative damage， attenuate inflammatory responses， promote autophagy， and inhibit apoptosis via regulating the Nrf2 signaling pathway. These findings not only clarify the scientific basis of TCM in GA treatment but also offer strategic insights for developing novel Nrf2-targeted anti-gout drugs.

The study explores the thermal dose of experimental animals exposed in electromagnetic field.The simulation environment containing electromagnetic and thermal doses is established based on the bioheat equation and the three-dimensional rat model,and the effects of specific absorption rate,metabolic rate and boundary condition on temperature distribution and variation are assessed.The result shows that the core temperature rises with increasing whole body average specific absorption rate(WBASAR).At WBASAR of 4 W/kg,the midbrain and testes have higher specific absorption rates due to the skin effect,resulting in a more significant temperature rise in organ tissues than in the core;and at WBASAR of 0.4 W/kg,the temperature variation of the shallow organs caused by the sudden changes of metabolic and external environment reaches 1℃,which is much larger than that of the core.The experiment demonstrates target organs such as the head and testicles as critical subjects in thermal dose assessment.The experimental conditions should be regulated to reduce the effects of metabolic rate and boundary condition on thermal dose.The study has guiding significance for bioelectromagnetic experimental design and effect evaluation on thermal dose.

Objective To analyze the bioelectromagnetic dose of human blood-brain barrier opening induced by electromagnetic pulse.Methods A typical exposure platform was used to establish an environment for human brain dosimetric study.The bioelectromagnetic dose was evaluated with electromagnetic simulation method using a 3D digital human model.Results The electric field at the centre of the head reached a peak of 1.49 kV/m,and there was a decrease of 41.6 dB from the excitation field.The maximum electric field amplitude on the surface of the nose tip was 1795 kV/m.The head had an average absorption rate of 4.16×10-8 J/kg under one pulse,while under extreme conditions with a repetition frequency of 1000 s-1,the average specific absorption rate of the head was 4.16×10-5 W/kg.Conclusion Local high-intensity electric fields pose significant safety risks in clinical application,and it is necessary to study the means of inhibiting local high-intensity electric field in combination with the dose-effect relationship of blood-brain barrier opening.The human brain bioelectromagnetic doses provided by the study can be used to evaluate the clinical efficacy.

Objective To investigate the current status of infection management quality control centers in county-level hospitals in Guangdong Province,providing reference for the development of quality control management programs for county-level infection control centers by provincial infection control centers,and exploring corresponding management strategies.Methods A survey was conducted using the QuestionStar questionnaire platform to investigate county-level quality control centers established in Guangdong Province before December 31,2023.The survey covered the establishment time,personnel structure,level of in-formatization,management,quality control,and training of hospital infection management professional quality control centers.Results There are 68 county-level infection control centers in Guangdong Province,with a coverage rate of 50.37%,and 95.59%of them have been established within the past five years.Experts mainly come from clinical and nursing backgrounds(accounting for23.75%and62.97%respectively),and the majority have a bachelor's degree(71.06%).Only 13%have operational funding.Among them,39 have established hospital infection informatization monitoring,23 have not been equipped,and 6 are under construction.Twenty centers have conducted quality control supervision and issued quality control reports,ac-counting for 29.41%,while 41 have organized training,accounting for 60.29%.Conclusion The coverage rate of county-level infection management quality control centers in Guangdong Province is steadily increasing,but not all counties and districts are covered.There is a lack of policy and funding support,insufficient personnel allocation,and inadequate professional coverage.The health administrative departments and county-level infection control centers need to unify monitoring standards,quality con-trol specifications,and evaluation programs,improve infection control capabilities,and enhance the"four-level"management and training system to effectively promote the quality and safety management level of primary healthcare institutions.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.

Objective:To analyze the genetic sequences of two patients with a rare Ael blood subgroup.Methods:Two female patients undergoing treatment respectively for adenomyoma of the uterus and gastritis at the Second Affiliated Hospital, Yuying Children′s Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University in June 2019 and September 2020 were selected as the study subjects. Their Ael subtypes were identified with a saline tube agglutination assay and absorption-emission assay. Sequence of the ABO gene Ael subtypes was determined by the Sanger method. The impact of genetic variants on the structural stability of N-acetylgalactosaminyl transferase (GTA) was analyzed with PyMOL software by constructing a structure predicted model. Results:Both patients were determined as Ael blood subgroup. Sequencing result of patient 1 was ABO* O.01.02/ ABO* O.01.02, which has resulted in a p. Thr88Profs*31 amino acid substitution. The sequencing result of patient 2 was ABO* Ael.06/ ABO* O.01.02, in which c. 425C>T and c. 467C>T variants in exon 7 have led to p. Met142Thr and p. Pro156Leu substitutions. Prediction of the protein model speculated that the p. Met142Thr not only can change the binding of GTA protein with water molecules, but also the local hydrogen bond network of GTA, which may lead to decreased enzymatic activity. By contrast, the p. Pro156Leu variant has trivial effect on the structural stability of GTA. Conclusion:The molecular structure of Ael subtypes can be diverse. The genotypes of the two patients have been respectively determined as ABO* O.01.02/ ABO* O.01.02 with a G261 deletion and ABO* Ael.06/ ABO* O.01.02.

Based on the problem of disconnection between "teaching" and "need" in the occupational education of nuclear emergency medical rescue in the past, this study proposes the curriculum goal of "the combination of three abilities" and performs the optimization and practice of the occupational education curriculum system of nuclear emergency medical rescue from the aspects of curriculum setting, curriculum content, teaching methods, and assessment and evaluation. The results show that the new curriculum system can significantly improve the comprehensive ability of nuclear emergency medical rescue among trainees and better meet the requirements for their posts, thereby playing an important role in cultivating high-quality military medical talents in nuclear emergency medical rescue.

Autologous ozonized blood transfusion(AOBT) is a therapy of re-transfusion of 100-200 mL of autologous blood after shaking and agitation with appropriate amount of oxygen-ozone in vitro. The oxidation of blood through the strong oxidation of ozone can enhance the non-specific immune response of the body, regulate the internal environment and promote health. This therapy has been increasingly applied in clinical practice, while no unified standard for the operation process in terms of ozone concentration, treatment frequency and treatment course had been established. This operation process of AOBT is primarily explored in order to standardize the operation process and ensure its safety and efficacy.
