Objective: To construct a scientific and perfect evaluation index system of infectious disease prevention and control ability in colleges and universities, so as to provide reference tools for colleges and universities to effectively respond to infectious disease. Methods: The initial framework of the evaluation index system of infectious disease prevention and control ability in colleges and universities was constructed by using literature analysis method. Experts familiar with infectious disease prevention and control or school health work were selected to conduct two rounds( n =16，18) of Delphi expert consultation for determining the evaluation index system. Analytical hierarchy process was used to calculate the index weights and combined weights. About 198 prevention and control personnel were conveniently selected from 3 universities in Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region to comprehensively evaluate the evaluation indicators by using fuzzy comprehensive evaluation method. Results: After two rounds of Delphi consultation questionnaire, the effective recovery rates were 80.0% and 90.0%, the expert authority levels were 0.89 and 0.86, the expert harmony coefficients for Kendall W were 0.166 and 0.310, and the variation coefficient of each index was <0.25. Finally, the evaluation index system of infectious disease prevention and control ability of colleges and universities included 4 first level indicators, 14 second level indicators and 75 third level indicators. The weights of prevention and monitoring and early warning, organizational system guarantee, emergency management, rehabilitation and summary were 0.176, 0.476, 0.268 and 0.080, respectively. The top 3 weights of the secondary indexes were 0.623 for infectious disease surveillance and early warning, 0.595 for loss assessment and 0.370 for emergency response. The score of fuzzy comprehensive evaluation of the index system of infectious disease prevention and control ability in colleges and universities was 79.148, suggesting a high level. Conclusion The established evaluation index system of infectious disease prevention and control ability in colleges and universities is scientific and reasonable, which is conducive to provide tool reference for the evaluation of infectious disease prevention and control ability in colleges and universities.

Background::Atopic dermatitis (AD) affects approximately 10% of adults worldwide. CM310 is a humanized monoclonal antibody targeting interleukin-4 receptor alpha that blocks interleukin-4 and interleukin-13 signaling. This trial aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of CM310 in Chinese adults with moderate-to-severe AD.Methods::This multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, phase 2b trial was conducted in 21 medical institutions in China from February to November 2021. Totally 120 eligible patients were enrolled and randomized (1:1:1) to receive subcutaneous injections of 300 mg CM310, 150 mg CM310, or placebo every 2 weeks for 16 weeks, followed by an 8-week follow-up period. The primary endpoint was the proportion of patients achieving ≥75% improvement in the Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI-75) score from baseline at week 16. Safety and pharmacodynamics were also studied.Results::At week 16, the proportion of EASI-75 responders from baseline was significantly higher in the CM310 groups (70% [28/40] for high-dose and 65% [26/40] for low-dose) than that in the placebo group (20%[8/40]). The differences in EASI-75 response rate were 50% (high vs. placebo, 95% CI 31%–69%) and 45% (low vs. placebo, 95% CI 26%–64%), with both P values <0.0001. CM310 at both doses also significantly improved the EASI score, Investigator’s Global Assessment score, daily peak pruritus Numerical Rating Scale, AD-affected body surface area, and Dermatology Life Quality Index compared with placebo. CM310 treatment reduced levels of thymus and activation-regulated chemokine, total immunoglobulin E, lactate dehydrogenase, and blood eosinophils. The incidence of treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) was similar among all three groups, with the most common TEAEs reported being upper respiratory tract infection, atopic dermatitis, hyperlipidemia, and hyperuricemia. No severe adverse events were deemed to be attributed to CM310. Conclusion::CM310 at 150 mg and 300 mg every 2 weeks demonstrated significant efficacy and was well-tolerated in adults with moderate-to-severe AD.Trial Registration::ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT04805411.

Objective To investigate the effect of interaction between serum neutrophil gelatinase-associat-ed lipid carrier protein(NGAL)and complications after percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI)on poor prognosis in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction(STEMI),and to provide reference for improving prognosis.Methods From January 2017 to January 2020,a total of 400 STEMI patients admitted to this hospital were selected and divided into good prognosis group(n=378)and poor prognosis group(n=22)according to their 2-year prognosis.Logistic regression equations were used to analyze the prognostic fac-tors of STEMI patients,and multiplicative and additive effects were established to analyze the effect of the in-teraction between serum NGAL and post-PCI complications on poor prognosis.Results Gender,age,heart rate,Gensini score,number of lesions ≥2,Killip grade,complications after PCI and NGAL level after PCI were associated with poor prognosis in STEMI patients(P＜0.05).Gender(female),age,heart rate,Gensini score,number of lesions ≥2,Killip grade,complications after PCI and NGAL level after PCI were all inde-pendent influencing factors of poor prognosis in STEMI patients(P＜0.05).There was interaction between serum NGAL after PCI and complications after PCI,both of which had an adverse effect on the prognosis of STEMI patients(P＜0.05).There was no multiplicative interaction between serum NGAL and complications after PCI(P＞0.05).When serum NGAL and complications after PCI were exposed at the same time,the risk of poor prognosis in STEMI patients was higher than the sum of the two exposures alone,and the interaction was 2.611 times the sum of the effects of the two exposures alone.Conclusion Serum NGAL and postopera-tive complications after PCI are independent factors influencing poor prognosis in STEMI patients.There is a additive interaction between the two factors,and exposure can increase the risk of poor prognosis.

Taking Kunming Medical University as an example, we explore the mechanism for the separation and coordination of supervision, management, and evaluation, establish and implement a course quality rating system, and strengthen the course quality evaluation. The course quality rating system mainly consists of merit evaluation for courses of grades A and B and admittance evaluation for courses of grades C and D. Through the course quality rating, courses are diagnosed and compared, with the aim to improve course connotation construction (labeling, setting an example, promoting excellent courses, and removing inferior courses), achieve "good pay for good courses", encourage the faculty to strengthen curriculum quality, and measure ourselves with our own ruler. We discussed the problems about the difference in evaluation indicators, the professionality of evaluators, and the incentive effect of evaluation results, and also proposed strategies for improving course quality rating in medical colleges from the perspectives of deepening the content of evaluation indices, ensuring the effectiveness after evaluation, and ascertaining the main body of course construction in daily work.

Objective To investigate the effects of probiotics combined with sacubitril valsartan and amiodarone on short-term and long-term efficacy of patients with atrial fibrillation after radiofrequency ablation. Methods A total of 90 patients with atrial fibrillation after radiofrequency ablation in the First Hospital of Zhangjiakou City from June 2021 to June 2022 were selected and randomly divided into three groups, with 30 cases in each group. Control group was treated with amiodarone, sacubitril valsartan group was treated with amiodarone and sacubitril valsartan, and probiotics group was treated with probiotics, amiodarone and sacubitril valsartan. The recurrence situation, atrial structure indexes[left atrial diameter (LAD), left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), left ventricular end systolic volume index (LVESVI), left atrial volume (LAV), left ventricular end diastolic volume index (LVEDVI)], myocardial fibrosis indexes[galactin-3 (Gal-3), soluble growth stimulation expression gene 2 protein (sST2)], inflammatory response indexes[intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), C reactive protein (CRP), interleukin-6 (IL-6)], neuroendocrine hormone indexes[aldosterone, norepinephrine (NE), angiotensin Ⅱ (AngⅡ)], metabolites of gut microbiota[total bile acids, trimethylamine oxide (TMAO)] and incidence of adverse events were compared among the three groups. Results At 12 months after treatment, the recurrence rate of the probiotics group was significantly lower than that of the sacubitril valsartan group and the control group (P < 0.05); after 3, 6 and 12 months of treatment, the LAD, LAV, LVESVI, LVEDVI, sST2 and Gal-3 in the probiotics group were significantly lower than those in the sacubitril valsartan group and the control group (P < 0.05), and these indexes in the sacubitril valsartan group were also significantly lower than those in the control group (P < 0.05); after 3, 6 and 12 months of treatment, the LVEF of the probiotics group was significantly higher than that of the sacubitril valsartan group and the control group (P < 0.05), and the LVEF of the sacubitril valsartan group was also significantly higher than that of the control group (P < 0.05); after 3, 6 and 12 months of treatment, the CRP, IL-6, ICAM-1, NE, aldosterone and AngⅡ in the probiotics group were significantly lower than those in the sacubitril valsartan group and the control group, and these indexes in the sacubitril valsartan group were also significantly lower than those in the control group (P < 0.05); after 3, 6 and 12 months of treatment, the TMAO and total bile acids in the probiotics group were significantly lower than those in the control group and the sacubitril valsartan group (P < 0.05); there was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse events among the three groups (P>0.05). Conclusion Probiotics combined with sacubitril valsartan and amiodarone can improve atrial structure after radiofrequency ablation of atrial fibrillation, inhibit myocardial fibrosis, reduce inflammatory response, regulate neuroendocrine hormones and metabolites of gut microbiota, prevent long-term recurrence of atrial fibrillation, and have a high safety.

Objective: To investigate the detection of HIV/AIDS cases in medical institutions in Tianjin Municipality from 2005 to 2021, so as to provide insights into optimization of HIV antibody testing strategies in medical institutions. Methods: All data pertaining to individuals receiving HIV antibody tests in medical institutions in Tianjin Municipality from 2005 to 2021 were collected from the information systems in medical institutions and the HIV/AIDS Prevention and Control Information System of Chinese Disease Prevention and Control Information System. The positive rate of HIV antibody and epidemiological characteristics of HIV/AIDS cases in medical institutions were analyzed. Results: The number of HIV antibody tests increased from 86 102 person-times in 2005 to 1 369 345 person-times in 2021 in medical institutions in Tianjin Municipality, with annual increase by 18.88%. The positive rate of HIV antibody increased from 2.44/104 to 2.85/104 (P<0.05), with annual increase by 2.79/104. Both the proportion of the number of HIV antibody tests and the number of HIV/AIDS cases detected by medical institutions in the whole city appeared a tendency towards a rise (P<0.05). A high positive rate of HIV antibody was seen in sexually transmitted disease clinics (53.69/104) and other testing services (12.25/104), and the highest positive rate of HIV antibody was seen in individuals at ages of 20 to 39 years (5.40/104), while the positive rate of HIV antibody was higher in men (5.84/104) than in women (0.53/104) (P<0.05). A total of 3 610 HIV/AIDS cases were detected in medical institutions in Tianjin Municipality from 2005 to 2021, with a median age of 38 (interquartile range, 24) years. Of all HIV/AIDS patients, there were 3 277 men (90.78%), and men who have sex with men was the predominant transmission route (63.46%), while the proportion of late identification of HIV/AIDS cases was 65.60%. In addition, the proportion of timely detection for the first CD4+T lymphocyte count testing increased from 23.81% in 2005 to 71.54% in 2021 (P<0.05). Conclusions The number of HIV antibody tests and positive rate of HIV antibody appeared a tendency towards a rise in medical institutions in Tianjin Municipality from 2005 to 2021. The HIV/AIDS cases were predominantly identified in sexually transmitted disease clinics and other testing services, and were predominantly men.

OBJECTIVE To explore the difference in chemical components of essential oil from medicinal part （rhizome）and non-medicinal parts （fibrous roots ，stems，and leaves ）of Atractylodes chinensis，and to preliminarily evaluate their antibacterial activity in vitro . METHODS The essential oil was extracted from three parts of A. chinensis by steam distillation ，and their chemical components and relative contents were analyzed and identified by gas chromatography -mass spectrometry （GC-MS）. The antibacterial activities of essential oil （5 mg/mL） from different parts against Staphylococcus aureus ，S. albus and Bacillus subtilis were determined by paper diffusion method . The correlation between chemical components in essential oil and antibacterial activity was analyzed . RESULTS A total of 60 chemical constituents were identified from the essential oilof rhizome ，fibrous roots ，stems and leaves of A. chinensis， mainly composed of terpenes ，sesquiterpenoids，alcohols and ketones. There were 8 kinds of common components in the essential oil of rhizome ，fibrous root and stem and leaves ，which were elementol ，cadinene，agarospirol，valencian citrine ， caryophyllin，β-sesquidiene，γ-eucalyptol and β-eucalyptol. A total of 26 components were identified from the essential oil of rhizome，of which the relative content of 4-benzaldehyde was the highest （31.56%）；a total of 21 components were identified from the essential oil of fibrous roots ，among which the relative content of β-eucalyptol was the highest （44.39%）；a total of 42 components were identified from the essential oil of stems and leaves ，among which the relative content of β-sesquidiene was the highest（14.83%）. The essential oil from different parts had certain antibacterial effect on S. aureus，S. albus and B. subtilis. The order of antibacterial effect was rhizome ＞fibrous roots ＞stem and leaves ；the relative contents of β-caryophyllene，α-humulene and modhephene were positively correlated with inhibitory effects of essential oil against S. aureus and B. subtilis（P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. The relative contents of atractylone ，zingiberene and agarospirol were positively correlated with the inhibitory effect of essential oil against B. subtilis（P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. CONCLUSIONS There are significant differences in the chemical composition and contents of essential oil from medicinal and non -medicinal parts of A. chinensis，and all of them have antibacterial activity in vitro .
