Objective:To analyze the epidemiological characteristics and pathogen spectrum of influenza outbreaks in Shaanxi Province from 2014 to 2023 and provide basis reference for strengthening regional influenza prevention and control.Methods:The data were collected from the Public Health Emergency Management Information System of the China Disease Prevention and Control Information System and the China Influenza Surveillance Information System. On-site epidemiological investigation information and etiological test results of influenza network laboratories reported in Shaanxi Province during 2014-2023 were collected, and descriptive analysis was conducted on the time, region, and location distribution of influenza outbreaks. SPSS 25.0 software was used for statistical analysis.Results:A total of 386 influenza outbreaks were reported in Shaanxi from 2014 to 2023, with a total attack rate of 1.81% (14 880/821 001). The epidemic peaks mainly occurred in winter and spring (November to March of the following year), and there was an alternating pattern of epidemic peaks in different years (the early peak was in December, and the late peak was in March of the following year). The epidemic areas were mainly concentrated in the Qinba Mountains of southern Shaanxi (209, 54.15%) and Guanzhong Plain (173, 44.82%). The epidemic places were mainly distributed in primary schools (239, 61.92%), and the differences of epidemic areas and places were statistically significant (all P<0.001). Influenza A(H3N2) viruses were the predominant pathogen in the outbreak (849, 57.76%), and influenza A(H3N2), B (Victoria) lineage and A(H1N1)pdm09 virus alternately dominated the epidemic peak in different years. Conclusions:The peak of influenza outbreaks in Shaanxi Province was winter and spring during 2014-2023. Primary schools in the Qinba Mountains of southern Shaanxi and Guanzhong Plain should be targeted for prevention and control. In the prevention and control programs, close attention should be paid to the changing trend of dominant strains. Effective intervention measures should be targeted to the high-incidence areas and seasons.

Grooming,as an evolutionarily conserved repetitive behavior,is common in various animals,including humans,and serves essential functions including,but not limited to,hygiene maintenance,thermoregulation,de-arousal,stress reduction,and social behaviors.In rodents,grooming involves a patterned and sequenced structure,known as the syntactic chain with four phases that comprise repeated stereotyped movements happening in a cephalocaudal progression style,beginning from the nose to the face,to the head,and finally ending with body licking.The context-dependent occurrence of grooming behavior indicates its adaptive significance.This review briefly summarizes the neural substrates responsible for rodent grooming behavior and explores its relevance in rodent models of neuropsychiatric disorders and neurodegenerative diseases with aberrant grooming phenotypes.We further emphasize the utility of rodent grooming as a reliable measure of repetitive behavior in neuropsychiatric models,holding promise for translational psychiatry.Herein,we mainly focus on rodent self-grooming.Allogrooming(grooming being applied on one animal by its conspecifics via licking or carefully nibbling)and heterogrooming(a form of grooming behavior directing towards another animal,which occurs in other contexts,such as maternal,sexual,aggressive,or social behaviors)are not covered due to space constraints.

Objective:To clarify the infection and epidemic characteristics of the human metapneumovirus (HMPV) in Chinese patients with febrile respiratory syndrome (FRS), and to provide important baseline data for clinical diagnosis, treatment, prevention and control of HMPV-induced respiratory tract diseases in China.Methods:FRS cases from January 2009 to June 2021 in 9 provinces in China, including Beijing, Hebei, Jilin, Shandong, Shaanxi, Xinjiang, Anhui, Guangdong, Hunan were retrospectively analyzed for their respiratory samples, clinical and epidemic data.The respiratory samples were detected for HMPV by quantitative real-time PCR.Results:A total of 11 660 cases were tested for HMPV, involving 296 (2.54%) HMPV-positive cases.Among 296 HMPV-positive cases, 218 were single HMPV infection, and 78/296 (26.35%) were co-infected with one or more respiratory viruses.HMPV mainly affected children under 5 years of age (3.10%), and in this population, the proportion of pneumonia in HMPV co-infection cases was significantly higher than that of single HMPV infection.HMPV could be detected all year round, which was more popular in winter and spring, with the peak of HMPV epidemic in March.Conclusions:HMPV is one of the important pathogens causing acute respiratory infection in children, showing a clear seasonal epidemic.HMPV can be infected alone or in combination with other respiratory viruses, which may increase the risk of pneumonia in children.

Objective:
To investigate the effects of metformin on mitochondrial pathway of apoptosis and oxidative stress in cell model of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease.
Methods:
An in vitro cell model of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease was established using 0.6 mmol/L oleic acid to induce lipid accumulation in HepG2 cells. HepG2 cells were divided into control (Con) group, oleic acid (OA) group, and metformin-low (1mmol/L) and high (10mmol/L) dose group. Oil Red O stain was used to detect intracellular lipid droplet distribution. The levels of alanine aminotransferase and aspartate aminotransferase in the culture supernatant were detected by assay kits. DCFH-DA method was used to detect the reactive oxygen species of HepG2 cells. Double staining flow cytometry was used to detect the apoptosis rate of HepG2 cells. Western blot was used to detect caspase-3, B-lymphocyte lymphoma-related protein, B-cell lymphoma 2, and cytochrome c protein. One-way analysis of variance was used to compare the data between groups.
Results:
Oleic acid-induced HepG2 cells were significantly increased with lipid droplets. Low and high-dose metformin had reduced intracellular lipid droplets accumulation. The effect of metformin in the high-dose group was more significant than that in the low-dose group. Aspartate aminotransferase and alanine aminotransferase in HepG2 cells of OA group were significantly increased, which were (43.41 ± 7.11) U/L and (29.56 ± 4.11) U/L, respectively. The intracellular aspartate aminotransferase and alanine aminotransferase were decreased significantly after the treatment with low and high-dose metformin, which were (32.44 ± 4.08)U/L, (19.31 ± 3.03) U/L, (26.00 ± 3.11) U/L and (15.11 ± 4.11) U/L, respectively and the differences were statistically significant (

Central venous catheters (CVCs) are now widely used in critical care for critical care, fluid resuscitation, drug infusion, parenteral nutrition, hemodynamic monitoring, chemotherapy, and continuous blood purification treatment. Although the application of CVCs can facilitate clinical medical care work, the proportion of patients with various catheter complications will exceed 15%, and the incidence of catheter blockage is about 25%. At present, adequate flushing and effective sealing are considered to be important means to reduce and prevent catheter blockage. This article reviews the prevention of central venous catheter occlusion with different sealing fluids, in order to provide reference for clinical nurses to prevent central venous catheter occlusion.
