Anopheles stephensi is an important malaria vector in many Southeast Asian countries, and is also a widely distributed Anopheles species in parts of Asia. As a potential vector of malaria and other mosquito-borne diseases, Anopheles stephensi had a relative wide distribution in China. This review gives a brief overview of the morphological characteristics and geographical distribution of Anopheles stephensi, which has been reported in South China, Southwest China and East China, including but not limited to Guangdong, Guangxi, Hainan, Guizhou, Sichuan, Xizang, Yunnan, Fujian and other provinces. Thanks to the continuous and effective disease surveillance and mosquito control strategies, the risk of malaria epidemic in China has been greatly reduced. However, Anopheles stepheni is highly invasive and adaptable, in addition to its rapid spread in global distribution, together with global climate anomalies and other factors, there still exists a certain transmission risk of the diseases related to Anopheles stepheni in some parts of China. In order to consolidate the achievements of malaria prevention and control, it is still necessary to conduct continuous monitoring of Anopheles stephensi and other malaria vectors, and to consolidate the implementation of malaria control measures in China.

Objective: To investigate the efficacy of implantable neuromuscular electrical stimulation system on stress urinary incontinence (SUI) model in female rats. Methods: A total of 21 female infertile SD rats were randomly divided into the control，sham stimulation，and stimulation groups，with 7 rats in each group.All rats received vaginal dilation (VD) to simulate postpartum SUI.One week after VD，the control group was given normal feeding，stimulators were implanted in the pelvic floor muscles of the sham stimulation and stimulation groups.The sham stimulation group received normal feeding for 2 weeks，and the stimulation group received pelvic floor electrical stimulation (PFES) for 2 consecutive weeks.The leak point pressure (LPP) of each rat was measured with cystometry before VD (baseline value)，1 week after VD，and 2 weeks after PFES. Results: In the control group and sham stimulation group，LPP increased after 2 weeks of treatment compared with that after 1 week of VD，but it still did not return to the baseline level (P<0.001).In the stimulation group，after 2 consecutive weeks of PFES，LPP increased significantly compared with that 1 week after VD，and returned to the baseline value (P>0.05).There was no significant difference in the LPP baseline values and levels after 1 week of VD among the 3 groups (P>0.05).The LPP in the stimulation group after 2 weeks of PFES was significantly higher than that in the sham stimulation group and stimulation group (P<0.001). Conclusion: The implantable neuromuscular electrical stimulation system is effective in short-term intervention of SUI in female rats，the further studies are needed to confirm the long-term efficacy and safety of the system，the optimal stimulation sites，optimal stimulation parameters，and potential mechanisms of action.

Background Salidroside (SAL) has a protective effect on multiple organ systems. Exposure to fine particulate matter (PM_2.5) in the atmosphere may lead to disruptions in gut microbiota and impact intestinal health. The regulatory effect of SAL on the gut microbiota of mice exposed to PM_2.5 requires further investigation. Objective To evaluate gut microbiota disruption in mice after being exposed to PM_2.5 and the potential effect of SAL. Methods Forty male C57BL/6 mice, aged 6 to 8 weeks, were randomly divided into four groups: a control group, an SAL group, a PM_2.5 group, and an SAL+PM_2.5 group, each containing 10 mice. In the SAL group and the SAL+PM_2.5 group, the mice were administered SAL (60 mg·kg⁻¹) by gavage, while in the control group and the PM_2.5 group, sterile saline (10 mL·kg⁻¹) was administered by gavage. In the PM_2.5 group and the SAL+PM_2.5 group, PM_2.5 suspension (8 mg·kg⁻¹) was intratracheally instilled, and in the control group and SAL group, sterile saline (1.5 mL·kg⁻¹) was intratracheally administered. Each experiment cycle spanned 2 d, with a total of 10 cycles conducted over 20 d. Histopathological changes in the ileum tissue of the mice were observed after HE staining. Colon contents were collected for gut microbiota sequencing and short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) measurements. Results The PM_2.5 group showed infiltration of inflammatory cells in the ileum tissue, while the SAL+PM_2.5 group exhibited only a small amount of inflammatory cell infiltration. Compared to the control group, the PM_2.5 group showed decreased Shannon index (P<0.05) and increased Simpson index (P<0.05), indicating that the diversity of gut microbiota in this group was decreased; the SAL+PM_2.5 group showed increased Shannon index compared to the PM_2.5 group (P<0.05) and decreased Simpson index (P<0.05), indicating that the diversity of gut microbiota in mice intervened with SAL was increased. The principal coordinates analysis (PCoA) revealed a significant separation between the PM_2.5 group and the control group, while the separation trend was less evident among the control group, the SAL group, and the SAL+PM_2.5 group. The unweighted pair-group method with arithmetic means (UPGMA) clustering tree results showed that the control group and the SAL group clustered together first, followed by clustering with the SAL+PM_2.5 group, and finally, the three groups clustered with the PM_2.5 group. The PCoA and UPGMA clustering results indicated that the uniformity and similarity of the microbiota in the PM_2.5 group were significantly decreased. Compared to the control group, the PM_2.5 group showed decreased abundance of phylum Bacteroidetes and Candidatus_Saccharimonas (P<0.05) and increased abundance of phylum Proteobacteria, genus Escherichia, genus Bacteroides, genus Prevotella, genus Enterococcus, and genus Proteus (P<0.05). Compared to the PM_2.5 group, the SAL+PM_2.5 group showed decreased abundance of phylum Proteobacteria, phylum Actinobacteria, genus Prevotella, and genus Proteus (P<0.05), and increased abundance of Candidatus_Saccharimonas (P<0.05). The PM_2.5 group showed reduced levels of propionic acid, valeric acid, and hexanoic acid compared to the control group (P<0.05), while the SAL+PM_2.5 group showed increased levels of propionic acid, isobutyric acid, butyric acid, valeric acid, and hexanoic acid compared to the PM_2.5 group (P<0.05). Conclusion Exposure to PM_2.5 can cause pathological alterations, microbial dysbiosis, and disturbing production of SCFAs in intestinal tissue in mice. However, SAL can provide a certain degree of protective effect against these changes.

Euglycemic diabetic ketoacidosis(euDKA)is a rare acute metabolic disorder syndrome,its characteristics include metabolic acidosis with a high anion gap,positive ketones in blood or urine,and blood glucose＜13.9 mmol/L.Due to low blood sugar level,euDKA is easy to be missed or delayed treatment in clinical work,resulting in serious consequences.In recent years,many cases of euDKA have been reported,but its inducements and pathogenesis are not fully understood.This article reviews the common inducements and pathogenesis of euDKA.

Objective To investigate the signal abnormality of conus medullaris in patients with overactive bladder(OAB)and un-deractive bladder(UAB)by MRI diffusion tensor imaging(DTI). Methods From May,2021 to April,2023,23 patients with lower urinary tract dysfunction without trauma and supraspi-nal lesions were enrolled(case group).All patients underwent imaging urodynamics and pelvic floor electromy-ography.Based on the bladder contraction during the filling phase of urodynamics,the patients were divided into UAB group and OAB group.Eight healthy subjects were included as the control group.All participants under-went T10 to L5 spinal segment MRI scans and DTI scans.The position of conus medullaris was determined by comparing the DTI sequences with the MRI scans.The fractional anisotropy(FA),apparent diffusion coefficient(ADC),and relative anisotropy(RA)of the conus medullaris intermediate segment were compared. Results Twelve cases were in UAB group,and eleven in OAB goup.Abnormalities were found in the pelvic floor elec-tromyography in the case group.There was significant difference in sacral reflex arc nerve conduction testing be-tween UAB and OAB groups(P = 0.036).Compared with the control group,ADC increased(t = 2.185,P = 0.037)in the case group;FA decreased(t = 3.439,P = 0.005)and ADC increased(t = 4.582,P<0.001)in UAB group. Conclusion DTI is helpful to find the potential lesion of spinal cord in patients with lower urinary tract dysfunction.FA and ADC are valuable indicators for the diagnosis of conus medullaris injury.

Objective To investigate the therapeutic mechanism of Gandou Bushen Decoction(GDBSD)for improving reproductive disorders in male mouse models of Wilson disease(WD).Methods Sixty male homozygous TX mice were randomized equally into 4 groups and treated with daily gavage of saline(WD model group),penicillamine(0.09 g/kg),or GDBSD(0.2 mL/10 g),or with intraperitoneal injection of U0126(20 mg/kg)in addition to GDBSD gavage,with 15 male DL mice as control.After 4 weeks of treatment,copper content in testicular tissue of the mice was detected,and histopathology of the testes and epididymis was examined using HE staining and electron microscopy.TUNEL staining was used to identify apoptotic cells in the testes.The protein expressions of Bcl-2,Cytc,caspase-3,ERK,and p-ERK in the testicular tissue were evaluated with Western blotting,and BrdU-positive cells were detected with immunohistochemical labeling.Sperm density,viability,malformation rate and fertility levels of male mice were studied.Results Treatment with penicillamine and GDBSD obviously improved pathological changes of the testis,increased sperm density and motility,lowered sperm abnormality rate,fertility levels and increased testicular JOHNSEN score of TK mice,but the therapeutic effect of GDBSD was blocked by U0126.GDBSD treatment significantly lowered Cytc and caspase-3 expressions and increased Bcl-2 expression in the testicular tissue of TX mice(P<0.05),while U0126 treatment significantly lowered testicular Bcl-2 expression level.No significant differences were found in total protein expression levels of ERK1/2 among the 5 groups,but p-ERK protein expression was significantly reduced in WD and U0126 groups and increased in penicillamine and GDBSD groups.Conclusion GDBSD can improve spermatogenesis and enhance fertility of male TX mice with WD possibly by activating the ERK signaling pathway to enhance proliferation and reduce apoptosis of the spermatogenic cells.
