According to the results of the questionnaire survey on teaching satisfaction, the students were satisfied with the interactive participatory teaching method in the four aspects of improving learning interest, improving learning ability, classroom satisfaction level, and course acceptance level. Conclusions:The pragmatic teaching reform in the internship of pediatric infectious diseases is highly accepted by students and beneficial to improving students' clinical thinking ability and comprehensive quality, which is worth further application and promotion.

Objective To explore the efficacy and safety of recombinant human anti-severe acute respiratory syn-drome coronavirus 2(anti-SARS-CoV-2)monoclonal antibody injection(F61 injection)in the treatment of patients with coronavirus disease 2019(COVID-19)combined with renal damage.Methods Patients with COVID-19 and renal damage who visited the PLA General Hospital from January to February 2023 were selected.Subjects were randomly divided into two groups.Control group was treated with conventional anti-COVID-19 therapy,while trial group was treated with conventional anti-COVID-19 therapy combined with F61 injection.A 15-day follow-up was conducted after drug administration.Clinical symptoms,laboratory tests,electrocardiogram,and chest CT of pa-tients were performed to analyze the efficacy and safety of F61 injection.Results Twelve subjects(7 in trial group and 5 in control group)were included in study.Neither group had any clinical progression or death cases.The ave-rage time for negative conversion of nucleic acid of SARS-CoV-2 in control group and trial group were 3.2 days and 1.57 days(P=0.046),respectively.The scores of COVID-19 related target symptom in the trial group on the 3rd and 5th day after medication were both lower than those of the control group(both P＜0.05).According to the clinical staging and World Health Organization 10-point graded disease progression scale,both groups of subjects improved but didn't show statistical differences(P＞0.05).For safety,trial group didn't present any infusion-re-lated adverse event.Subjects in both groups demonstrated varying degrees of elevated blood glucose,elevated urine glucose,elevated urobilinogen,positive urine casts,and cardiac arrhythmia,but the differences were not statistica-lly significant(all P＞0.05).Conclusion F61 injection has initially demonstrated safety and clinical benefit in trea-ting patients with COVID-19 combined with renal damage.As the domestically produced drug,it has good clinical accessibility and may provide more options for clinical practice.

Objective Vascular dementia(VD)is a clinical syndrome caused by various cerebrovascular diseases,including ischemic,hemorrhagic,and acute and chronic hypoxic cerebrovascular diseases,leading to impaired brain function and affecting patients'cognitive ability,daily life,and work abilities.Vascular dementia is a preventable and reversible form of dementia,second only to Alzheimer's disease as the second common cause of dementia.At present,the relevant pathogenesis of vascular dementia is not clear,and there is no clear treatment method.However,its pathogenesis may be related to neuroinflammation,oxidative stress,neuronal damage and white matter lesions.Its main risk factors include genetic factors,hypercholesterolemia,diabetes,hypertension,etc.Neuroinflammatory response plays a major role in the process of secondary brain injury caused by cerebral ischemia,and inflammatory factors lead to an inflammatory cascade reaction that exacerbates damage to the nervous system.Inhibiting the inflammatory pathway and reducing the expression of inflammatory factors can improve the symptoms of vascular dementia patients and animal models,indicating that neuroinflammation may play an important role in the pathogenesis of vascular dementia.This article explores the effects of Buyang Huanwu Decoction on inflammatory factors from the perspective of summarizing relevant literature in recent years.It mainly reviews the pharmacological effects of Buyang Huanwu Decoction on treating vascular dementia,the relationship between inflammatory factor levels and vascular dementia,and the prevention and treatment of vascular dementia by regulating inflammatory factor levels.

Objective:To understand the current status of occupational exposure to dust or harmful gases and occupational protection in people aged ≥40 years in China, and provide data support for the prevention and control of occupational dust or harmful gas exposure.Methods:The data were obtained from the surveillance for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) in adults aged ≥40 years selected by multi-stage stratified cluster sampling from 125 surveillance points in 31 provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities) during 2014-2015 and 2019-2020, and relevant information about occupational dust or harmful gas exposure and protection measures were collected through face-to-face interviews. Occupational dust or harmful gas exposure rate and occupational protection rate were estimated by using weighting complex sampling methods, and then the results were compared.Results:From 2014 to 2015 and from 2019 to 2020, a total of 71 061 and 71 023 individuals aged ≥40 years were surveyed, respectively. The rate of occupational exposure to dust or hazardous gas was 33.8% (95% CI: 29.9%-37.7%) during 2019-2020. The occupational exposure rate was higher in men than in women and in rural residents than in urban residents. With the increase of education level, the rate of occupational exposure to dust or harmful gas showed a downward trend. The protection rate against occupational dust or hazardous gas exposure was 47.9% (95% CI: 43.2%-52.6%) during 2019-2020. Compared with 2014-2015, the rate of occupational exposure to dust or hazardous gas decreased by 10.7 percentage points in different gender, area and occupational groups and the occupational protection rate increased by 21.9 percentage points during 2019-2020. The decrease in occupational exposure rate was higher in western China than in eastern and central China, and the increase in occupational protection rate was higher in western China than in eastern and central China. Conclusions:The rate of occupational exposure to dust or harmful gas decreased and the rate of occupational protection against dust or harmful gas exposure increased in China during 2019-2020. However, about one-third of the population still suffer from the occupational exposure, and less than half of them take protection measures. It is necessary to pay more attention to the key populations, such as workers with lower cultural level and rural migrant workers, in occupational health practice.

Objective:To understand the passive smoking exposure status in adults aged ≥40 years in China.Methods:Local residents aged ≥40 years were enrolled as study subjects from 125 areas of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) surveillance during 2014-2015 and 2019-2020 in 31 provinces of China. A total of 74 559 adults aged ≥40 years were selected through multi-stage stratified cluster sampling for a face to face questionnaire survey and the data from 64 142 study subjects were used for the analysis. The passive smoking exposure rate, the proportions of the adults reporting passive smoking exposure at four types of places and the proportion of the adults living with daily smokers were described by using complicated sampling weighting method, the related factors were analyzed and the results were compared with the data of COPD surveillance during 2014-2015.Results:The passive smoking exposure rate in the adults aged ≥40 years was 46.4% (95% CI: 44.1%-48.8%) in China during 2019-2020, and the rate was higher in women (47.2%, 95% CI:44.8%-49.7%) than in men (44.8%, 95% CI:42.0%-47.6%) and lower in the older people. The office workers had the highest passive smoking exposure rate. The proportions of those reporting passive smoking exposure at homes, workplaces, restaurants, and public transports were 24.3% (95% CI:22.2%-26.4%)、23.3% (95% CI:21.1%-25.5%)、6.6% (95% CI:5.3%-7.9%) and 2.2% (95% CI:1.6%-2.7%). The higher education level the adults had, the less passive smoking exposure at home they reported. The proportions of those living with daily smokers before 14 years old and since 14 years old were 56.4% and 59.2%. Compared with the data during 2014-2015, the overall passive smoking exposure rate in the adults aged ≥40 years during 2019-2020 showed an increase, and the difference was not significant ( P=0.356); The passive smoking exposure rate at homes declined, but the exposure rate at workplaces increased, with the biggest increase found in those being engaged in farming, forestry, husbandry, fishery and water conservancy. Multivariate analysis indicated that the factors influencing the passive smoking exposure and the exposure proportions at different places included gender, age, occupation, and education level. Conclusions:The passive smoking exposure rate in China is still high, especially in those being engaged in farming, forestry, husbandry, fishery and water conservancy. It is necessary to strengthen supervision of the enforcement of current smoking bans in public places and promote the legislation of ban smoking in public places. More attention should be paid to smoking ban and protection against passive smoking exposure in women, people with lower education level and people being engaged in in farming, forestry, husbandry, fishery and water conservancy.

Objective:To analyze the exposure level and changes in severe respiratory infection among Chinese residents aged ≥40 years in China and to provide essential data for preventing and controlling chronic respiratory diseases.Methods:The data came from chronic obstructive pulmonary disease surveillance of Chinese residents in 2014-2015 and 2019-2020. The surveillance covers 31 provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities) in China. A multi-stage stratified cluster random sampling method was used to select permanent residents aged ≥40 years. Relevant information about exposure to severe respiratory infections during childhood was collected through investigation. Rigorous complex sampling and weighted analysis were applied to estimate the exposure rate of severe respiratory infections among children with different characteristics among residents aged ≥40 years in China from 2019 to 2020. Additionally, changes in severe respiratory infections during childhood were analyzed over 2014-2015 and 2019-2020.Results:In 2019-2020, the exposure rate of severe respiratory infection before 18 for residents aged ≥40 years in China was 21.58‰ (95% CI: 17.57‰-25.59‰). The exposure rate of severe respiratory infection before the age of 14 was 19.40‰ (95% CI:15.25‰-23.55‰), the difference in the exposure rate between men and women was not statistically significant (both P>0.05), and the exposure rate of urban residents is higher than that of rural residents. The results of multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that in western rural areas, factors including being born by cesarean section, exposure to secondhand smoke before age 14 years old, and a family history of chronic respiratory diseases were associated with severe respiratory infections in childhood. Compared with 2014-2015, the proportion of residents aged 40 and older in China hospitalized for pneumonia or bronchitis before 14 from 2019 to 2020 was slightly lower than five years prior. Conclusions:Among residents in China aged ≥40 years, 21.58‰ experienced severe respiratory infection exposure during childhood, varying exposure levels across different demographic groups. The burden of chronic respiratory diseases in adulthood cannot be ignored. Efforts should be made to expand the coverage of planned immunization and to focus on early-life interventions during childhood to reduce the incidence of severe respiratory infections.

Evaluate the interventional effect of Lycium barbarum leaves extract on cataract rats and its effects on plasma and liver tissue metabolites. The ultimate goal is to explore the scientific connotation of Lycium barbarum leaves extract on vision improvement. All experiments were approved by the experimental animal ethics committee from Nanjing University of Chinese Medicine (202306A067). D-Galactose (D-gal) induced cataract model in rats was established. The lens opacity, lens and liver tissue pathology, level of oxidative stress and polyol metabolism regulation in the lens, level of oxidative stress in serum and liver tissue, and the content of inflammatory cytokines such as tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) in serum and liver tissue were analysed to evaluate the effect of Lycium barbarum leaves extract on cataract. The metabolite profiles of plasma and liver tissue of rats were analyzed by UPLC-QTOF-MS/MS. Principal component analysis (PCA) and orthogonal partial least squares-discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA) were used to compare and analyze the metabolic data in control group and cataract group, and screen potential biomarkers. The related metabolic pathways were further constructed by KEGG database analysis. The results showed that lens and liver pathology of cataract rats were improved after being intervened by the leaves extract of Lycium barbarum. The contents of AR and Ca²⁺ were significantly decreased in lens, and the contents of SDH and GSH and the ability of CAT were significantly increased; the content of GSH and the ability of SOD were significantly improved in serum and liver tissue, the content of MDA, the abilities of ALT and AST and the level of inflammatory factors were significantly reduced. The metabolomics results showed that there were 15 different metabolites in plasma and liver tissue of cataract rats, and 9 different biomarkers including retinyl ester, stearic acid, and palmitic acid, were returned by Lycium barbarum leaves extract. As revealed by pathway enrichment in plasma and liver tissue, it was found that the retinol metabolic pathway was mainly regulated by Lycium barbarum leaves extract. In summary, Lycium barbarum leaves can effectively alleviate the pathological changes of cataract, inhibit inflammation and improve antioxidant capacity, which may relate to the retinol metabolic pathway. It provides scientific basis and support for revealing the scientific connotation of the effect of Lycium barbarum leaves on vision improvement.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the intervention effect and mechanism of Lycium barbarum leaves on letrozole-induced polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) mice. The PCOS model was prepared by letrozole combined with high-fat diet. After successful modeling, 40 mice were randomly divided into PCOS group, positive drug metformin group, low-dose Lycium barbarum leaves group, and high-dose Lycium barbarum leaves group. The corresponding drugs were given by gavage for 29 days. At the end of the experiment, the eyeballs were removed for blood collection and ovarian tissue was collected. The ovarian mass, fasting blood glucose (FBG), fasting insulin (FINS), testosterone (T), anti-Mullerian hormone (AMH), luteinizing hormone (LH), follicle stimulating hormone (FSH), and estradiol (E₂) levels were measured in each group. The morphology of ovarian tissue was observed by hematoxylin-eosin staining, and the oocytes, cystic follicles and corpus luteum were counted. Cecal contents of mice were collected for analysis of intestinal flora composition and differential flora. The animal experiment process was approved by the Animal Ethics Committee of Nanjing University of Traditional Chinese Medicine. The results showed that the estrous cycle of PCOS mice was disordered. Compared with the PCOS group, the Lycium barbarum leaves group can significantly reduce the ovarian damage of mice, reduce the number of cystic dilated follicles, and normalize the estrous cycle. After the intervention of Lycium barbarum leaves, the levels of FBG, FINS, T, AMH, LH, FSH and LH/FSH were significantly decreased (P < 0.05), while the level of E₂ was significantly increased (P < 0.001). In addition, Lycium barbarum leaves can regulate the disorder of intestinal flora diversity in PCOS mice, increase the abundance of Bacteroidetes, and reduce the abundance of Firmicutes, Ileibacterium, Romboutsia and Faecalibaculum. In summary, Lycium barbarum leaves can play a therapeutic role in PCOS mice by improving insulin resistance, regulating reproductive hormone disorders and gut microbiota imbalance. It provides scientific basis and useful reference for the rational utilization and development of Lycium barbarum leaves.

Objective:To study the postoperative complications and its risk factors in patients undergoing breast reconstruction with abdominal flaps.Methods:The clinical data of patients undergoing breast reconstruction with abdominal flaps at Department of Breast Oncoplastic Surgery, Tianjin Medical University Cancer Institute and Hospital from Jan 2011 to Apr 2022 were reviewed.Results:Postoperative complications occurred in 95 of 484 patients (19.6%), 15.5% had flap complications, 5.2% had donor-site complications, and fat necrosis was the most common complication (11.9%). The rate of fat liquefaction decreased significantly through technical improvement (1.7% vs. 7.0%); By univariate analysis, there were statistically significant differences among the groups by reconstructive type, neoadjuvant chemotherapy, BMI, smoking history ( χ2=21.088, P<0.001; χ2=4.385, P=0.036; χ2=14.784, P=0.018; χ2=19.015, P=0.048). Unplanned reoperation statistically related to the timing of reconstruction, and reconstructive type ( χ2=7.316, P=0.007; χ2=17.167, P<0.001). Revision surgery significantly related to the timing of reconstruction and timing of radiation ( χ2=40.785, P<0.001; χ2=18.602, P<0.001);By multivariate analysis, deep inferior epigastric perforator flap, smoking history were independent risk factors for flap necrosis ( OR=0.084, 95% CI:0.022-0.325, P<0.001; OR=41.623, 95% CI:3.241-534.569, P=0.004) . Conclusions:Complications after breast reconstruction with abdominal flaps are related to many factors. The surgical risks should be carefully evaluated and personalized plan should be formulated before surgery.
