Objective To investigate the effects and mechanisms of Zhenxin Anshen Prescription(composed of Os Draconis,Ostreae Concha,Lophatheri Herba,Drynariae Rhizoma,Poria)on mice with atopic dermatitis(AD)based on the calcium channel regulator 1(ORAI1)/nuclear factor of T-cells(NFAT)signalling axis.Methods Thirty-six BALB/c mice were randomly divided into a blank control group,a model group,a Cetirizine group(1.3 mg·kg-1)and a Zhenxin Anshen Prescription group(36.36 g·kg-1),with nine mice in each group.AD mouse model was established using 1-chloro-2,4-dinitrobenzene(DNCB)induction.The drug was administered by gavage once a day for 2 weeks.At the end of drug administration,the area of skin lesions was measured and the severity of skin lesions was scored;spleen mass was measured and spleen index was calculated;pathological changes of skin lesion tissues were observed by HE staining;interleukin 4(IL-4),IL-13 and thymic stromal lymphopoietin(TSLP)in serum were detected by ELISA;and the protein expression levels of ORAI1,calmodulin phosphatase A(CaN)and nuclear factor of T cells 2(NFAT2)were detected by Western Blot.Results Compared with the blank control group,the skin lesion score of mice in the model group was significantly increased(P＜0.01),the skin lesion area was significantly enlarged(P＜0.01);the thickness of the epidermis and dermis were significantly increased(P＜0.01),hyperkeratosis of the epidermis,hypertrophy of the stratum spinosum,and infiltration of inflammatory cells such as eosinophils and lymphocytes can be seen in the dermis;the splenic index and serum IL-4,IL-13,TSLP levels were significantly increased(P＜0.01);protein expression levels of CaN,NFAT2,ORAI1 were significantly increased in the skin lesion tissues(P＜0.01).Compared with the model group,the dermatitis score of mice in the Zhenxin Anshen Prescription group was significantly decreased(P＜0.01),the lesion area was significantly reduced(P＜0.01),the epidermal and dermal thicknesses(P＜0.01),the hyperkeratosis of epidermis was alleviated,the spinous layer was slightly hypertrophic,and there was a small amount of inflammatory cell infiltration in the dermis;the splenic index and the levels of serum IL-4,IL-13,and TSLP were significantly decreased(P＜0.01);the protein expressions levels of CaN,NFAT2,and ORAI1 in the skin lesion tissues were significantly decreased(P＜0.01).Conclusion Zhenxin Anshen Prescription can ameliorate dermatopathological injury in DNCB-induced AD mice,and the mechanism may be related to its ability to inhibit the protein expressions of ORAI1,CaN and NFAT2,reduce the levels of serum type 2 inflammatory factors TSLP,IL-4 and IL-13,and ameliorate cutaneous inflammation and itching through immunomodulation.

Objective: To analyze the correlation and gender differences between adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) and positive childhood experiences (PCEs) and depression and anxiety symptoms among middle school students, so as to provide a reference for promoting the mental health of middle school students. Methods: With a stratified random cluster sampling method, a total of 6 656 middle school students in 4 cities, including Nanchang, Shenyang, Taiyuan, and Zhengzhou, were selected as research subjects from October 2021 to October 2022. The Adverse Childhood Experiences International Questionnaire (ACEs-IQ), Benevolent Childhood Experiences Scale (BCEs), Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) and Generalized Anxiety Disorders-7 (GAD-7) scale were used to conduct questionnaire surveys.The Chi square test was used to compare the reporting rates of depression and anxiety symptoms among middle school students in different groups, and a Logistic regression model was established to analyze the effects of ACEs and PCEs on depression and anxiety symptoms among middle school students and their gender differences. Results: The reporting rate of depressive symptoms among middle school students was 20.1%, and the reporting rate of anxiety symptoms was 13.9% . ACEs were positively correlated with depression and anxiety symptoms among middle school students (depression symptoms: OR =1.20, 95% CI =1.18-1.22, anxiety symptoms: OR =1.18, 95% CI =1.16-1.20), while PCEs were negatively correlated with depression and anxiety symptoms among middle school students(depression symptoms: OR =0.84, 95% CI = 0.83 -0.86, anxiety symptoms: OR =0.85, 95% CI =0.83-0.87) ( P <0.05). In the general population (depression symptoms ： OR =0.99, 95% CI = 0.98- 0.99, anxiety symptoms: OR =0.99, 95% CI =0.99-1.00) and among girls (depression symptoms: OR = 0.98 , 95% CI = 0.97- 0.99 , anxiety symptoms ： OR =0.99, 95% CI =0.98-1.00), the interaction term between ACEs and PCEs were negatively correlated with depression and anxiety symptoms ( P <0.05). Conclusions ACEs significantly affect the depression and anxiety symptoms of middle school students, while PCEs can help reduce the impact of ACEs on the depression and anxiety symptoms of middle school students, girls are more susceptible to the impact of early experiences than boys. It should focus on gender differences, formulate comprehensive mental health protection strategies, to promote the mental health development of middle school students.

Objective To investigate the epidemiological characteristics and trends in the prevalence of tuberculosis among in the six urban districts of Tianjin from 2014 to 2023, so as to provide scientific basis for the prevention and control of tuberculosis. Methods Data on the occurrence of new tuberculosis cases among in the six urban districts of Tianjin from 2014 to 2023 were collected through the Tianjin Infectious Disease Report Information Management System, and the epidemiological characteristics of new tuberculosis cases were descriptively analyzed. Then the Average Annual Percentage Change (AAPC) statistics were used to characterize the magnitude and direction of trends. Results A total of 17 818 tuberculosis cases were reported in the six urban districts of Tianjin from 2014 to 2023 , with an average annual reported prevalence rate of 25.61/100 000. The prevalence rate of tuberculosis in the six urban districts of Tianjin from 2014 to 2023 showed a decreasing trend, reporting a prevalence rate of 35.47/100 000 in 2014 and 22.72/100 000 in 2023, and AAPC is -4.86% (-7.13% to -1.56%) , with statistical difference (P<0.05). In terms of gender, the overall prevalence rate of tuberculosis was 31.17/100,000 in males and 19.47/100,000 in females, with statistical difference (χ²=276.12 , P<0.05). The incidence in people younger than 25 years and older than 55 years is on the rise from 2014 to 2023. In terms of occupation, household duties, unemployed people, retired people and office clerks showed a high prevalence rate of tuberculosis. Conclusion The overall prevalence of adult tuberculosis in the six urban districts of Tianjin from 2014 to 2023 shows a decreasing trend, whereas the prevalence rate of males is higher than that of females, and the elderly, families, unemployed people, retirees and office clerks are high-risk groups, so targeted preventive and control measures, health education and screening should be strengthened.

Chronic fatigue syndrome(CFS)is a chronic,multi-system disease manifested as prolonged fatigue and often accompanied by somatization symptoms that include muscle pain and sleep disorders,which is why CFS impacts patients'life and health.However,the etiology of CFS remains unknown.There is no specific treatment as well.Treatments currently available mostly use specific medicines to treat specific symptoms or assist clinicians by such means as cognitive-behavioral therapies or nutritional support.While on long-distance voyages,the Navy soldiers spend a long time in relatively closed environments under high pressure,which is likely to result in physical and mental fatigue and even CFS.This paper reviews the causes,current level of diagnosis,as well as the treatment and prevention of CFS in order to contribute to the health and operational capability of Navy soldiers.

Sleep disorders are characterized by difficulty falling asleep or maintaining sleep,excessive sleepiness,abnormalities of respiration during sleep,disturbances of the sleep-wake cycle and abnormal movements that disturb sleep.The incidence is increasing year by year,which causes a wide range of mental diseases and metabolic disorders,and impacts the health of soldiers.Sleep scales,regarded as one of the main methods for screening and diagnosing sleep disorders,are currently in the spotlight.This review describes the characteristics of different sleep scales in the hopes of providing data for proper selection of sleep scales in the assessments and diagnosis of different sleep disorders,and improving the sleep quality of soldiers.

Purpose: This study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a new combination treatment of vinorelbine and pyrotinib in human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)–positive metastatic breast cancer (MBC) and provide higher level evidence for clinical practice. Materials and Methods: This was a prospective, single-arm, phase 2 trial conducted at three institutions in China. Patients with HER2-positive MBC, who had previously been treated with trastuzumab plus a taxane or trastuzumab plus pertuzumab combined with a chemotherapeutic agent, were enrolled between March 2020 and December 2021. All patients received pyrotinib 400 mg orally once daily plus vinorelbine 25 mg/m2 intravenously or 60-80 mg/m2 orally on day 1 and day 8 of 21-day cycle. The primary endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS), and the secondary endpoints included the objective response rate (ORR), disease control rate (DCR), overall survival, and safety. Results: A total of 39 patients were enrolled. All patients had been pretreated with trastuzumab and 23.1% (n=9) of them had accepted trastuzumab plus pertuzumab. The median follow-up time was 16.3 months (95% confidence interval [CI], 5.3 to 27.2), and the median PFS was 6.4 months (95% CI, 4.0 to 8.8). The ORR was 43.6% (95% CI, 27.8% to 60.4%) and the DCR was 84.6% (95% CI, 69.5% to 94.1%). The median PFS of patients with versus without prior pertuzumab treatment was 4.6 and 8.3 months (p=0.017). The most common grade 3/4 adverse events were diarrhea (28.2%), neutrophil count decreased (15.4%), white blood cell count decreased (7.7%), vomiting (5.1%), and anemia (2.6%). Conclusion Pyrotinib plus vinorelbine showed promising efficacy and tolerable toxicity as second-line treatment in patients with HER2-positive MBC.

Sleep disorders are abnormalities in sleep duration or quality caused by factors that range from insomnia,circadian rhythm sleep disorders to abnormal behavioral disorders during sleep.Long-term sleep disorders may affect the emotions and physical strength of soldiers,impair their learning and cognitive ability,and even increase the prevalence of physical and mental diseases,which may be detrimental to their physical and mental health and combat effectiveness.This article is intended to review the current research progress in sleep disorders in military personal at home and abroad.

Objective:To understand the components, performance, acceptance test and quality assurance (QA) protocols of the new Varian Halcyon accelerator through the procedures of installation product acceptance (IPA).Methods:Per Varian IPA protocol, TG-142 for LINAC and TG-148 for tomotherapy QA protocols, the software license, safety interlock, mechanical accuracy, dosimetric performance and imager system were checked thoroughly. Some parameters were benchmarked to the conventional TrueBeam system.Results:The system has been fully licensed. Safety interlock was normal. Mechanical accuracy: The maximum deviation of beam stability per gantry rotation was 1.13%. The size of isocenter was>0.59mm. The offsets of MV imager, collimation rotation and absolute gantry rotation were 0.09mm, -0.21° and 0.11°, respectively. The maximum offsets of couch, virtual-to-isocenter were 0.15mm (vertical) and -0.04mm (vertical), respectively. Beam performance: The depth deviation of maximum dose was 0.1cm. The offset of percentage depth dose at 10cm was 0.5%. The maximum deviations of off-axis-intensity, symmetry, and repeatability were 0.9%, 0.94% and -0.44%, respectively. MV imager: The dark field mean pixel value, noise, corrected pixels, defective lines, sensitivity and linearity disparity of dose were 614, 4.4, 3626, 0, 19177, and 0.47%, respectively. All values were within the range of tolerance. Visual check of contrast resolution and small object detection was all satisfactory.Conclusions:Without Halcyon-specific TG report or guidelines, manufacture-provided IPA manual can be helpful with the installation of acceptance and QA protocols. IPA has been successfully performed for Halcyon at Peking University Cancer Hospital. The automated workflow improves the clinical efficiency by simplifying the operations.

Objective:To investigate the performance of W2 plastic scintillator in megavolt photon and electron beams.Methods:The photon and electron beam energy provided by linear accelerator was used to collect data of the W2 scintillator. The parameters include the electrometer reading stability, W2 dose and dose rate linearity, and angular response. And the dose uncertainty of the W2 correction factors was also investigated.Results:The standard deviation of the electrometer reading stability was between 0.03 and 0.47. The linear regression factors of W2 dose were all 1.0; the maximum deviation of the dose rates was 0.61%. The Cerenkov light radiation correction factor(CLR) for 6 and 10 MV were 0.741 and 0.746, respectively, and the CLR for 6, 9, 12 and 15 MeV were 0.750, 0.753, 0.757 and 0.757, respectively. The maximum deviation of dose uncertainty for 15 MeV was 3.15%.Conclusions:The signal obtained by the blue and green channel was no angular dependence, the same as the high-energy electron beam, which verified that the Cerenkov radiation correction factor has good linearity. W2 plastic scintillator can be applied to non-coplanar radiotherapy dosimetry.

Objective:To evaluate the cost effectiveness of primary prophylaxis (PP) with pegylated recombinant human granulocyte colony stimulating factor (PEG-rhG-CSF), PP with recombinant human granulocyte colony stimulating factor (rhG-CSF) and no prophylaxis in women with early-stage breast cancer in China.Methods:Two phase Markov models were constructed for a hypothetical cohort of patients aged 45 with stage Ⅱ breast cancer. The first phase modelled costs and outcomes of 4 cycles docetaxel combined with cyclophosphamide [TC×4, febrile neutropenia (FN) risk>20%] chemotherapy, which assumptions based on literature reviews, including FN rates [base-case (deterministic sensitivity analysis range), 0.29 (0.24-0.35)] and related events [FN case-fatality, 3.4 (2.7-4.1)]. Second phase modelled the long term survival which was link with the relative dose intensity (RDI) [mortality hazard ratio ( HR) of RDI < 85% vs ≥85%, 1.45 (1.00-2.32)]. Clinical effectiveness, therapeutic costs, and economic utilities were estimated from peer-reviewed publications and expert opinions in case of unavailability of published evidences. Results:Compared to rhG-CSF PP and no prophylaxis, the cost of PEG-rhG-CSF PP increased to 5 208.19 RMB and 5 222.73 RMB, respectively. The quality-adjusted life-years (QALYs) enhanced to 0.066 and 0.297, respectively. Accordingly, the incremental cost effectiveness ratios (ICERs) are 79 146.3 RMB and 17 558.77 RMB per QALY, which were both below the willingness to pay (WTP) threshold of three times GDP per capita (18, 000 RMB) recommended by the WHO. Sensitivity analysis suggested that the more clinically effective the primary prophylaxis with PEG-rhG-CSF is, the more cost-effective primary prophylaxis with PEG-rhG-CSF will be. And the lower the mortality HR of RDI<85% vs ≥85% is, the more cost-effective primary prophylaxis with PEG-rhG-CSF will be. Conclusion:Although the cost of PP PEG-rhG-CSF is higher, considering the additional benefits, the administrating of PP PEG-rhG-CSF is likely to be a cost-effective alternative to PP rhG-CSF and no prophylaxis in patients with early stage breast cancer whose FN risks are more than 20% in China.
