Objective:To analyze the surveillance data of population in rabies exposure and post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) clinics in Shandong province from 2019 to 2023, explore risk factors for exposure, and provide a basis for further standardizing PEP.Methods:Based on surveillance data from the rabies exposure treatment clinic vaccination information system, population, and spatial administrative division data in Shandong province from 2019 to 2023, descriptive epidemiological methods were applied to analyze using SPSS 18.0.Results:The number of individuals receiving post-exposure treatment at PEP clinics in Shandong province from 2019 to 2023 was over 1 million annually and showed an increasing trend year by year, with the highest number of visits occurring from May to August each year. The number of female patients is increasing year by year. The 15-year-old and younger age group accounted for 31.69%-36.86% of clinic visits. Grade Ⅲ exposures accounted for 53.40%, and limbs accounted for approximately 89.81% of exposed areas. Approximately 1.94% is multi site exposure. The main injuring animals were dogs, followed by cats, and the proportion of cats is increasing year by year. The proportion of doctor′s office visitors who self-treated wounds increased from 32.32% to 45.46%, while the proportion of outpatient wound treatment decreased from 76.07% to 66.24%. The whole course vaccination rate after initial exposure is 63.79%. The whole course vaccination rate for the 15-29-year-old age group was lower than that for other age groups. The usage rate of passive immune preparations among grade Ⅲ exposed individuals is 35.66%. From 2019 to 2023, 8 cases of rabies were reported, none of whom received standard post-exposure treatment.Conclusions:The epidemic characteristics and exposure risk of people exposed to suspected rabies animals in Shandong province have changed. It is necessary to pay attention to the female population, the population with low vaccination rate between 15 to 29 years of age, cat bitten people, and carry out continuous monitoring on the exposed population, and timely adjust the prevention and control strategies.

Objective: To summarize the management and short-term outcomes of neonates delivered by mothers infected with SARS-CoV-2 Omicron variant. Methods: A retrospective study was performed on 158 neonates born to mothers infected with SARS-CoV-2 Omicron variant admitted to the isolation ward of Children's Hospital of Fudan University from March 15^th, 2022 to May 30^th, 2022. The postnatal infection control measures for these neonates, and their clinical characteristics and short-term outcomes were analyzed. They were divided into maternal symptomatic group and maternal asymptomatic group according to whether their mothers had SARS-CoV-2 symptoms. The clinical outcomes were compared between the 2 groups using Rank sum test and Chi-square test. Results: All neonates were under strict infection control measures at birth and after birth. Of the 158 neonates, 75 (47.5%) were male. The gestational age was (38⁺³±1⁺³) weeks and the birth weight was (3 201±463)g. Of the neonates included, ten were preterm (6.3%) and the minimum gestational age was 30⁺¹ weeks. Six neonates (3.8%) had respiratory difficulty and 4 of them were premature and required mechanical ventilation. All 158 neonates were tested negative for SARS-COV-2 nucleic acid by daily nasal swabs for the first 7 days. A total of 156 mothers (2 cases of twin pregnancy) infected with SARS-CoV-2 Omicron variant, the time from confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection to delivery was 7 (3, 12) days. Among them, 88 cases (56.4%) showed clinical symptoms, but none needed intensive care treatment. The peripheral white blood cell count of the neonates in maternal symptomatic group was significantly higher than that in maternal symptomatic group (23.0 (18.7, 28.0) × 10⁹ vs. 19.6 (15.4, 36.6) × 10⁹/L, Z=2.44, P<0.05). Conclusions: Neonates of mothers infected with SARS-CoV-2 Omicron variant during third trimester have benign short-term outcomes, without intrauterine infection through vertical transmission. Strict infection control measures at birth and after birth can effectively protect these neonates from SARS-CoV-2 infection.

Objective:To study the epidemiological characteristics and spatio-temporal aggregation of hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) in Shandong Province, and to provide reference for formulating reasonable prevention and control strategies.Methods:Retrospective analysis was used to collect HFRS surveillance data and confirmed case data in Shandong Province from 2017 to 2020 in the "China Disease Prevention and Control Information System Infectious Disease Surveillance System". Geoda 1.18 software was used for global and local spatial autocorrelation analysis, SaTScan 9.6 software was used for spatio-temporal scanning analysis, and ArcGis 10.7 software was used for map drawing and visual display.Results:A total of 3 753 cases of HFRS were reported in Shandong Province from 2017 to 2020, including 56 deaths. The annual incidence rate was 1.26/100 000, 1.22/100 000, 0.75/100 000 and 0.53/100 000, respectively, with an average annual incidence rate of 0.94/100 000. The incidence of HFRS was obviously seasonal, mainly concentrated in autumn and winter from October to December, accounting for 50.41% (1 892/3 753). The age of onset was mainly 30-59 years old, accounting for 61.68% (2 315/3 753). The male to female ratio was 2.76 ∶ 1.00 (2 756 ∶ 997). The occupation distribution was mainly farmers, accounting for 81.99% (3 077/3 753). The global spatial autocorrelation analysis showed that HFRS showed spatial aggregation areas in each year from 2017 to 2020 (Moran' I = 0.38, 0.33, 0.59, 0.46, Z = 7.47, 7.23, 10.69, 8.66, P < 0.001). The local spatial autocorrelation analysis showed that "high-high" aggregation areas were mainly concentrated in central and southeast of Shandong Province, while "low-low" aggregation areas were mainly concentrated in northwest of Shandong Province. Spatio-temporal scanning analysis revealed 1 type Ⅰ agglomerations and 2 type Ⅱ aggregation areas. The type Ⅰ aggregation areas occurred from October to November 2018, covering 22 counties (districts) of 5 cities in Qingdao, Yantai, Weifang, Weihai and Rizhao. The first type Ⅱ aggregation area occurred from October to November 2017, involving 23 counties (districts) of 8 cities in Jinan, Zibo, Zaozhuang, Weifang, Jining, Tai 'an, Rizhao and Linyi. The second type Ⅱ aggregation area occurred in Jinxiang County, Jining City from February to March 2017. Conclusion:The incidence of HFRS in Shandong Province from 2017 to 2020 has obvious spatio-temporal aggregation, and the hot spots are concentrated in central and southeast of Shandong Province, which should be regarded as a key area for prevention and control of HFRS.

Objective:To seed for stable time window of the integrated disease-syndrome animal model based on the counterevidence from Chinese medicinal prescriptions， and to verify syndrome stability and reliability. Method:A model of depression was established by exposing rats to chronic unpredictable mild stress （CUMS）， followed by body weight measurement， sugar water test， behavioral test， and brain 5-hydroxytryptamine（5-HT） detection. The identification of liver depression and spleen deficiency syndrome was conducted after the equivalent transformation of human clinical symptoms into macroscopic representations of rats. Based on the dynamically collected macroscopic representation scale， Xiaoyaosan was used to reversely verify the stability and reliability of the integrated disease-syndrome animal model of depression due to liver depression and spleen deficiency. Result:The sugar water consumption and the number of crossings and the total movement distance in the open field test of 16-week-old rats in the CUMS （eight weeks of CUMS） group were significantly lower than those in the normal group （P<0.05）. According to the immunohistochemical results， the 5-HT content in hippocampal area CA2 of rats in the CUMS group was also significantly lowered as compared with that in the normal group（P<0.05），which indicated that depression was successfully modeled. The liver depression and spleen deficiency syndrome was present in 14-week-old rats （six weeks after CUMS）of the CUMS group， and the number of rats experiencing the liver depression and spleen deficiency syndrome reached the peak in the 16th week （eight weeks after CUMS），accounting for 70% of the total number. Thereafter， the number decreased gradually. The syndrome scores of the 14-， 16-， 18-， 20-， and 22-week-old rats in the Xiaoyaosan group were reduced by 66.6%， 70.7%， 54.8%， 50.4%， and 44.8%， which were graded as effective， marked effective， effective， effective， and effective， respectively. Conclusion:The age of 14-16 weeks（six to eight weeks after CUMS） is considered the stable and reliable time window for depression due to liver depression and spleen deficiency.

OBJECTIVE：To investigate antitumor pharmaceutical care ability a nd the current status of direct to patient （DTP） pharmacy in China ，and to provide reference for building a quality evaluation system of DTP pharmacy which focuses on the pharmaceutical care. METHODS ：From Sept. to Dec. 2019， an electronic questionnaire survey was conducted amongpharmacists of all of 126 listed DTP pharmacies and involved wang_star@163.com education background ，professional knowledge sources andpharmaceutical care ability （such as prescription checking and E-mail：dujoan-88@163.com dispensing，medication consultation and guidance ，medication management，follow-up），pharmaceutical knowledge of antitumor medicine ，etc. DTP pharmacies in C hina were inspected on site ， and their pharmaceutical care management were evaluated ，and impression of on-site inspection were discribed with questionnaire survey. The current situation of oncology pharmaceutical care ability of DTP pharmacy in China was evaluated and corresponding suggestions were put forward. RESULTS ：A total of 400 questionnaires were sent out ，and 392 valid questionnaires were collected with recovery rate of 98.0％. The cancer pharmacists in DTP pharmacy were mainly from East China ，mainly in Jiangxi （73 persons，18.62％），Anhui（68 persons，17.35％）. The pharmacists were mainly junior college or below （229 persons，58.42％）， followed by undergraduate （158 persons，40.31％）. The working years were more than 5 years（241 persons，61.48％）. The majors were mostly pharmaceutics （123 persons，31.38％），followed by pharmacy （including pharmacology ）（81 persons， 20.66％）. The regular knowledge sources of pharmacists in DTP pharmacy included learning materials （302 person times ， 77.04％），textbooks（250 person times ，63.78％）and Wechat push （206 person times ，52.55％）；the latest knowledge sources included training courses （347 person times ，88.52％），Wechat push （211 person times ，56.38％）and academic conferences （162 person times ，41.33％）. The expected training methods included online video courses （344 person times ，87.76％）and offline courses（248 person times ，63.27％）. In terms of prescription checking and dispensing ，there were mainly problems such as incomplete medical documents and materials ；82.91％ and 64.54％ of pharmacists needed routine medical records and discharge summary，and 91.58％ of pharmacists took the doctor ’s handwritten prescription as the basis for dispensing new anti-tumor drugs ； pharmacists paid less attention to allergy history ，genetic history and ADR in the field of drug consultation and guidance. According to DTP pharmacists ，the difficulties in the process of drug treatment management included patient ’s ADR monitoring （239 person times，60.97％），evaluating the rationality of drug use （222 person times ，56.63％），making a complete drug use record （219 person times ，55.87％）. The main follow-up visits of pharmacists were telephone （334 person times ，85.20％）and dispensing site （313 person times ，79.85％）. And 333 pharmacists（84.95％）thought it was necessary to make an appointment for dispensing ；the score rates of professional knowledge examination of antitumor pharmacy for the respondents were 40.56％-84.69％. In the aspect of pharmaceutical care management ，the main points of deduction were drug evaluation ，content and process of drug treatment management，drug follow-up and record ，and the proportion of deduction was 93％，86％ and 64％ respectively. In the on-site inspection，it was found that the pharmacist had a single source of working knowledge ，did not fully grasp the contents of the evaluation forms such as ADR classification standard ，and prescription checking did not meet the requirements. CONCLUSIONS ： DTP pharmacy in China develops rapidly under the guidance of relevant policies ，but its pharmaceutical care is still in the basic stage，which is far behind the requirements of providing whole-course pharmaceutical care for patients. It is necessary to improve the professional service ability of DTP pharma

Tripterygium Glycosides Tablets has good anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory activities,but its reproductive damage is significant. Previous studies of the research group have found that Cuscutae Semen flavonoids can improve spermatogenic cell damage caused by Tripterygium Glycosides Tablets by regulating spermatogenic cell cycle,apoptosis and related protein expression,but the mechanism of action at the gene level is still unclear. In this study,Illumina high-throughput sequencing platform was applied in transcriptional sequencing of spermatogenic cells of rats after the intervention of Cuscutae Semen flavonoids and Tripterygium Glycosides Tablets. Differentially expressed genes were screened out and the GO enrichment and KEGG pathway analysis of differentially expressed genes were conducted to explore the mechanism of Cuscutae Semen flavonoids in improving reproductive injury caused by Tripterygium Glycosides Tablets. The results showed that 794 up-regulated genes and 491 down-regulated genes were screened in Tripterygium Glycosides Tablets group compared with the blank group. Compared with Tripterygium Glycosides Tablets,440 up-regulated genes and 784 down-regulated genes were screened in the Cuscutae Semen flavonoids+Tripterygium Glycosides Tablets group. Among them,the gene closely related to reproductive function is DNMT3 L. Analysis of GO function and KEGG signaling pathway enrichment showed that the above differentially expressed genes were mainly enriched in cell,cell process,catalytic activity,binding,ovarian steroid synthesis,thyroid hormone and other functions and pathways. The thyroid hormone signaling pathway was the common enrichment pathway of the two control groups. In a word,Cuscutae Semen flavonoids has a good treatment effect on male reproductive damage caused by Tripterygium Glycosides Tablets. The mechanism may be closely related to up-regulation of DNMT3 L genes and intervention of thyroid hormone signaling pathway. At the same time,the discovery of many different genes provides valuable information for study on the mechanism of Cuscutae Semen flavonoids and Tripterygium Glycosides Tablets compatibility decreasing toxicity and increasing efficiency.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the application value of the clearance of No.253 lymph nodes with priority to fascial space and preserving left colic artery (LCA) in patients undergoing laparoscopic radical proctectomy.

METHODSFrom August 2015 to August 2016, 97 consecutive middle-low rectal cancer patients underwent laparoscopic radical proctectomy using the clearance of No.253 lymph nodes with priority to fascial space and preserving LCA at Department of General Surgery, Tangdu Hospital. Among 97 patients, 45 were females , 52 were males, mean age was (64.3±5.5) years and mean BMI was (22.4±1.8) kg/m. Brief steps of this clearance: traditional medial approach was the commencement of the dissection at the membrane bridge line in front of iliac vascular bifurcation, then entering into the Toldt's space; superior rectal artery served as the top of the tent and the Toldt's space was extended as far as possible; blunt separation was developed caudally (reaching 2 cm below the sacral promontory), cephalad (reaching the lower part of the pancreas), left laterally (reaching Toldt's line), dextrally (reaching abdominal aorta); after giving priority to fascias space, from the root of inferior mesenteric artery, LCA was exposed and No.253 lymph nodes were dissected. This regimen was suitable for the rectal adenocarcinoma patients without distant metastasis.

RESULTSThere was no tension in the intestine and mesenteria after anastomosis in all the 97 patients. One patient received LCA ligation during the clearance, because of thinner LCA resulting in bleeding. The other 96 cases completed the clearance and operation successfully. The mean No.253 lymphadenectomy time was 11-27(17.1±5.3) minutes. The mean number of harvested No.253 lymph node was 0-6(4±2). The No.253 lymph nodes of 6 patients were positive. No.253 regional mesentery was complete in 95 patients. The total harvested number of lymph node was 11-26(17.3±5.3). Six patients with positive lymph nodes aged from 68 to 72 years old and all of them underwent TME operation 6-8 weeks after neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy. The mean operative time was 89-189(125±35) minutes. The mean estimated blood loss was 10.5-38.6(22.4±10.5) ml. The first exhaust time was 3.0-6.0(5.6±2.1) days. The mean time to extracting the drainage tube was 3.0-5.0(4.5±2.5) days. Anastomotic fistula appeared in 1 case and hemorrhage appeared in 1 case, and these 2 cases were cured by conservative treatment. No perioperative death occurred. The mean postoperative hospital stay was 3.0-10.0(3.6±2.6) days.

CONCLUSIONThe clearance of No.253 lymph nodes with priority to fascial space and preserving LCA in laparoscopic radical proctectomy is safe and feasible.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the application value of the Overlap method in digestive tract reconstruction of totally laparoscopic left colectomy(TLLC) and its potential advantage.

METHODSThe retrospective cohort study was adopted. Clinicopathological data of 16 patients with left colon cancer who underwent TLLC and Overlap anastomosis between August 2016 and August 2017 at Tangdu Hospital were retrospectively collected as Overlap group. Twenty-one patients who underwent laparoscopic assisted left colectomy (LALC) between January 2015 and July 2016 at Tangdu Hospital were used as control (traditional group). The intraoperative and postoperative data were compared between the two groups. During digestive tract reconstruction in the Overlap group, the proximal colon and distal colon were lined up side by side; a side-to-side anastomosis was conducted on colic band with a 60 mm linear stapler; and the common entry hole was closed using running suture. While in traditional group, the bowel was pulled out of abdominal wall through the assisted incision; the sample was resected and a proximal and distal end-to-end anastomosis was performed.

RESULTSIn Overlap group, 10 cases were male and 6 cases were female, with a mean age of (66.4±4.8) years and a BMI of (23.6±2.3) kg/m; the tumor located in distal transverse colon in 1 case, in splenic flexure in 2 cases, in descending colon in 4 cases, in upper sigmoid colon in 9 cases. TLLC was successfully completed in all the cases without conversion to laparotomy. In traditional group, 12 cases were male and 9 cases were female, with mean age of (65.9±5.8) years and BMI of (22.7±2.8) kg/m; the tumor located in the distal transverse colon in 1 case, in the splenic flexure in 3 cases, in the descending colon in 6 cases, in the upper sigmoid colon in 11 cases. No statistically significant differences in baseline data were found between the two groups (all P>0.05). Compared to the traditional group, the total operation time was shorter [(143.4±11.1) minutes vs. (166.4±16.5) minutes, t=4.792, P=0.000], the anastomosis time was prolonged [(44.3±3.3) minutes vs. (22.4±3.0) minutes, t=-20.948, P=0.000], the amount of bleeding was reduced [(46.6±13.6) ml vs. (70.5±20.0) ml, t=4.106, P=0.000], and the incision length was shorter [(3.9±0.9) cm vs. (6.7±1.3) cm, t=7.056, P=0.000] in the Overlap group. There were no significant differences in lymph nodes harvested (17.3±2.9 vs. 15.5±3.0), time to flatus [(2.8±1.3) days vs. (2.6±1.0)days], postoperative complications [6.2%(1/16) vs. 9.5%(2/21)] and postoperative hospitalization [(4.6±1.4) days vs.(4.7±1.2) days] between the two groups (all P>0.05).

CONCLUSIONThe Overlap reconstruction method in totally laparoscopic left colectomy is a safe and feasible procedure, and provides less injury and better cosmetic outcome of abdominal wall.
