Objective: To investigate the situation of road traffic injuries (RTIs) among middle school students in Shaoxing City, Zhejiang Province, so as to provide the basis for implementation of interventions against RTIs among students. Methods: From 2021 to 2023, a multi-stage stratified cluster sampling method was used to select 82 junior high school classes and 89 senior high school classes in Shaoxing City as the survey population. Data on basic information, commuting travel, road safety behaviors and road safety knowledge awareness were collected through questionnaires, and the prevalence of RTIs in the past year was analyzed. Results: A total of 6 287 middle school students were surveyed, and 971 cases of RTIs were reported, with a reporting rate of 15.44%. The reporting rate of RTIs was higher in males than in females (17.68% vs. 13.34%, P<0.05). The reporting rate of RTIs was higher in high school students than in junior high school students (17.70% vs. 12.66%, P<0.05). The students who mainly walked to school (18.00%), walked 5 days a week (17.82%) and traveled with classmates (17.58%) had higher reporting rates of RTIs. Among those who walked for ≥20 minutes, the reporting rate of RTIs was higher in males than in females (P<0.05). Among different road safety behaviors, the reporting rate of RTIs was higher in males than in females who used electronic devices (P<0.05). The reporting rates of RTIs were relatively high among students who played for ≥10 minutes on the way (32.92%), crossed traffic lights directly when being late for school (41.54%) and crossed traffic barriers directly (30.67%). The reporting rate of RTIs among middle school students decreased with the increase of road safety knowledge scores (P<0.05). Conclusions Male students, high school students, students with road risky behaviors and with low awareness of road safety knowledge have higher reporting rates of RTIs. It is necessary to strengthen road safety knowledge education for students.

As a neurological disorder in the brain, epilepsy is not only associated with abnormal synchronized discharging of neurons, but also inseparable from non-neuronal elements in the altered microenvironment. Anti-epileptic drugs (AEDs) merely focusing on neuronal circuits frequently turn out deficient, which is necessitating comprehensive strategies of medications to cover over-exciting neurons, activated glial cells, oxidative stress and chronic inflammation synchronously. Therefore, we would report the design of a polymeric micelle drug delivery system that was functioned with brain targeting and cerebral microenvironment modulation. In brief, reactive oxygen species (ROS)-sensitive phenylboronic ester was conjugated with poly-ethylene glycol (PEG) to form amphiphilic copolymers. Additionally, dehydroascorbic acid (DHAA), an analogue of glucose, was applied to target glucose transporter 1 (GLUT1) and facilitate micelle penetration across the blood‒brain barrier (BBB). A classic hydrophobic AED, lamotrigine (LTG), was encapsulated in the micelles via self-assembly. When administrated and transferred across the BBB, ROS-scavenging polymers were expected to integrate anti-oxidation, anti-inflammation and neuro-electric modulation into one strategy. Moreover, micelles would alter LTG distribution in vivo with improved efficacy. Overall, the combined anti-epileptic therapy might provide effective opinions on how to maximize neuroprotection during early epileptogenesis.

Objective:To explore the effect of core muscle strength training intervention on postoperative rehabilitation of patients after total knee arthroplasty, and to provide reference for the rehabilitation of patients after total knee arthroplasty.Methods:A total of 109 patients with total knee arthroplasty who were admitted to Medical Health Group of First People′s Hospital of Xiangshan County from May 2020 to July 2021 were selected as the research objects, and were divided into an intervention group of 54 cases and a control group of 55 cases according to the random number table method. The control group received conventional rehabilitation methods after surgery, and the intervention group received core muscle strength training on the basis of conventional rehabilitation. The intervention time was 6 weeks. The knee joint function, balance function and activities of daily living were evaluated by Hospital for Special Surgery Knee Score, Berg Balance Scale, modified Barthel Index before and after intervention and the results were compared between the two groups.Results:In the end, there were 50 cases in the intervention group and 52 cases in the control group. There was no significant difference in the score of the knee joint function, balance function and activities of daily living before intervention between the two groups( P>0.05). The scores of the knee joint function, balance function and activities of daily living were (74.78 ± 3.12), (46.50 ± 3.82), (92.80 ± 5.17) points in the intervention group, and (72.15 ± 3.31),(44.44 ±3.66),(89.42 ± 4.50) points in the control group, the differences were statistically significant ( t=4.12, 2.78, 3.52, all P<0.01). The knee joint function recovery grade in the intervention group was higher than that in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant ( Z=3.43, P<0.01); the degree of dependence on self-care ability in daily life in the intervention group was lower than that in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant ( Z=3.98, P<0.01). Conclusions:Core muscle strength training can effectively improve postoperative knee function, balance function and activities of daily living in patients with total knee arthroplasty. This program is practical in clinical work and has clinical application value.

Background The tobacco epidemic as one of the most serious public health problems in the world contributes great harm to human health. It is urgent to develop tobacco control strategy. Civil servants' behaviors as a role model for society have a great influence on the rest of society. Thus, it is important to promote tobacco control program on helping civil servants to quit smoking. Objective To understand the smoking and second-hand smoking exposures status, the awareness of knowledge of tobacco hazards, and the attitudes to tobacco control policies of civil servants in Minhang District, Shanghai. Furthermore, to explore the related strategies and measures for tobacco control, to provide a basis for the development and revision of relevant intervention measures and policies. Methods A total of 20 government agencies with newly installed smoking-free programs from 10 subdistricts and towns in Minhang District, including Xinzhuang, Wujing, Maqiao, Qibao, Meilong, Hongqiao, Zhuanqiao, Jiangchuan, Gumei, and Xinhong were selected as study sites.A questionnaire survey was conducted to investigate all civil servants (n=801) of selected agencies. The questionnaire included general characteristics, smoking and second-hand smoking exposure status, knowledge of tobacco hazard, and attitudes to tobacco control policies. Results A total of 794 civil servants returned valid questionnaires. The awareness rate of tobacco hazards in the smoking group was lower than that in the non-smoking group (P<0.05). Relatively high smoking rates were reported in those being male (17.08%), age ≥51 years old (25.61%), divorced or widowed (12.50%), technical secondary school or below education level (22.81%), having more than 10 years of working years (11.57%), being willing to dissuade indoor smoking (24.54%), having no punishment or warning measures for violation of smoking regulations in workplaces (18.37%), and having no dedicated smoking spot at home (15.38%). The results of multiple logistic regression analysis showed that age 31-40 years old (OR=3.446, 95%CI: 1.236-9.609) and to avoid confronting indoor smoking (OR=3.686, 95%CI: 1.041-13.049) were risk factors for smoking in civil servants. Conclusion Civil servants aged 31-40 years old who deliberately avoid confronting indoor smoking behaviors are the key intervention population of smoking control in Minhang District, Shanghai.

Objective To investigate the significance of lactate dehydrogenase(LDH) in the diagnosis and treatment of children with refractory Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia(RMPP).Methods This was a study of children with Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia(MPP) admitted to hospital from June 2013 to June 2016.All patients were treated with erythromycin.Based on the definition of RMPP,subjects were divided into usual MPP group and RMPP group.The children in RMPP group were treated with erythromycin combined with methylprednisolone.The indicators including LDH,WBC counts,C-reactive protein,erythrocyte sedimentation rate(ESR),alanine aminotransferase(ALT),aspartate amino ransferase(AST) and creatine kinase were analyzed between RMPP group and usual MPP group.The differences of the above indicators between the effective and ineffective group before and after methylprednisolone treatment were also compared.Results In total,253 subjects were enrolled,including 161 in the usual MPP group and 92 in the RMPP group.The average age in RMPP group was older than that in the usual MPP group.The indicators(including LDH,AST,ALT,and ESR) of RMPP group were higher than those in the usual MPP group.Logistic regression showed that LDH and ESR were the significant factors in predicting RMPP.The odds ratio(OR) of LDH was 1.029 with 95%CI 1.020-1.037,and the OR of ESR was 1.063 with 95%CI 1.009-1.120.Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis showed that the area under the curve of LDH(400.50U/L) was the largest(0.959,95%CI 0.936-0.983).The administration of methylprednisolone to patients in the RMPP group resulted in the rapid improvement of symptoms and decrease in serum LDH and ESR levels in effective group(P＜0.05).Conclusion Serum LDH may be used as a biomarker to predict RMPP at the early stage,also may be an important marker for the evaluation of therapeutic efficacy in RMPP.

Objective To investigate the effect of metformin on the growth of human anaplastic thyroid cancer cell HTh74Rdox which is doxorubicin resistant. Methods The HTh74Rdox was treated with different concentrations of metformin for 48 h. Cell morphology was observed by microscope, cell viability was tested by methylthiazoletetrazolium (MTT), cell apoptosis by annexin Ⅴ and propidium iodide double staining, the anti-oncogenic miRNA was assayed by realtime fluorescence quantitative PCR (RT-PCR), and the adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK)/mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) signaling pathway tested by western blot. Furthermore, the anti-oncogenic miRNAs were knockdown by miRNA inhibitors (miR-34a, miR-101, miR-125b, and miR-138 inhibitors) and the cells were treated by metformin for 48 h, after that, cell apoptosis was detected by annexin Ⅴ and propidium iodide double staining, the expression of protein related to AMPK/mTOR signaling pathway was detected by western blot. Results Metformin inhibited the growth of human anaplastic thyroid cancer cell HTh74Rdox in a concentration-dependent manner, the cell apoptosis was induced by metformin, and there was a significantly lower expression of miR-34a, miR-101, miR-125b, and miR-138 in the HTh74Rdox. However, the four above miRNAs were upregulated by metformin, and AMPK/mTOR pathway was also activated by metformin. When these miRNAs were suppressed by miR-inhibitors (miR-34a, miR-101, miR-125b, miR-138 inhibitors), the stimulating effect of apoptosis and AMPK/mTOR pathway by metformin were reversed. Conclusion Metformin significantly suppresses cell viability of human anaplastic thyroid cancer cell HTh74Rdox, and stimulates AMPK/mTOR pathway and apoptosis by upregulating the expressions of miR-34a, miR-101, miR-125b, miR-138 in HTh74Rdox cell.

Objective: To investigate the feasibility of contrast-enhanced computer tomography (CT) texture analysis in predicting early recurrence after transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) in patients with liver cancer. Methods: A retrospective analysis was performed for 47 patients with liver cancer confirmed by liver biopsy and digital subtraction angiography who underwent upper abdominal contrast-enhanced CT scan before TACE, and according to the presence or absence of focal recurrence within half a year, these patients were divided into early recurrence (ER) group and non-early recurrence (NER) group. The texture analysis was used to delineate tumor boundary layer by layer on the axial contrast-enhanced CT image before liver cancer surgery, and related parameters of tumor heterogeneity, including entropy, mean, non-uniformity, skewness, and kurtosis, were obtained. The independent samples t-test was used for comparison of texture parameters between the two groups. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used for the analysis of entropy, mean, and non-uniformity, and the area under the ROC curve (ROC), optical cut-off value, sensitivity, and specificity were calculated to evaluate the efficiency of texture analysis in predicting early focal recurrence after TACE. Results: There were 20 patients in the ER group and 27 in the NER group. The ER group had a maximum major axis length of 88.2±36.3 mm and a maximum minor axis length of 41.4±21.4 mm, and the NER group had a maximum major axis length of 66.9±30.2 mm and a maximum minor axis length of 29.3±19.8 mm; the ER group had significantly higher maximum major and minor axis lengths than the NER group (t = 4.89 and 4.62, P < 0.001). The ER group had significantly higher entropy and non-uniformity values than the NER group, and there were no significant differences in skewness and kurtosis between the two groups. Entropy, non-uniformity, and mean had high efficiency in predicting early recurrence after TACE, and the optimal cut-off value of entropy was 4.135. Conclusion Volumetric texture analysis of contrast-enhanced CT images before liver cancer surgery has a high value in predicting early recurrence after TACE.

[Summary] Lifestyle intervention is one of the important strategies for the prevention of type 2 diabetes. Recently, caloric restriction regimen has become a hot topic as one of the cornerstone of lifestyle intervention. The alternate day fasting regimen is simple, and increases the patient compliance. Both daily calorie restriction and alternate day fasting regimen can reduce body-weight significantly in pre-diabetes subjects, and reduce the visceral fat mass and the fasting insulin levels, and improve the insulin sensitivity, as well as maintain the lean mass, though the effect on fasting blood glucose was not significant. Nevertheless, the most recent studies have demonstrated that daily calorie restriction,in particular, alternate day fasting regimens can be effective in individuals with pre-diebates in order to prevent type 2 diabetes.
