Recently, there has been an increasing risk of importation of tropical diseases into China and the resultant re-transmission in the country with the in-depth implementation of the “Belt and Road” Initiative, which poses a serious threat to the national public health security. To effectively respond to the cross-border transmission risk of tropical diseases and facilitate the process towards tropical disease control and elimination in China and the countries along the “Belt and Road” Initiative, this article analyzes the current status and governance risks of major imported tropical diseases, cross-border joint prevention and control polices implemented for tropical diseases and challenges in the establishment of the joint prevention and control system for tropical diseases in China, and discusses the establishment and implementation path of the joint prevention and control system for tropical diseases in countries along the “Belt and Road” Initiative. This path covers the establishment of cross-border cooperation mechanisms, research and development and pilot production of Chinese public health products, and implementation of key cross-border tropical disease prevention and control projects. The establishment of this system will further improve Chinese prevention and control capabilities for key cross-border tropical diseases, build a demonstrative prevention and control model for tropical diseases, and promote international technical exchanges and cooperation of tropical diseases.

OBJECTIVE To systematically evaluate medication risk prediction models for hospitalized adult patients and provide references for their development and clinical application. METHODS Databases including PubMed， Embase， Web of Science， CNKI， Wanfang data， VIP and CBM were searched for studies on medication risk prediction models from their inception to May 2024. After screening the literature， extracting data， and evaluating the quality of the literature， descriptive analysis was performed on the results of the included studies. RESULTS A total of 13 studies were included， involving 12 models. Nine studies used Logistic regression algorithm for modeling， and the number of included predictive factors ranged from 3 to 11； the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve ranged from 0.65 to 0.865. The literature quality evaluation results showed that 10 studies had high risk of bias； 10 studies had high applicability risk. A total of 31 predictive factors were extracted， including 15 items of basic patient information， 3 test indicators， and 5 items of medication information， and 8 others. CONCLUSIONS The existing medication risk prediction models for hospitalized adult inpatients are mainly Logistic regression algorithm， with predictive factors mainly focusing on basic indicators such as demographics. The overall prediction performance of the models needs to be improved， and the overall risk of bias is relatively high.

BackgroundMigraine is a common chronic neurological disease， and patent foramen ovale （PFO） has been closely associated with migraine. Current research primarily focuses on the pathological mechanism and the therapeutic effects of interventional closure， with limited attention paid to the impact of PFO on sleep quality in migraine patients. ObjectiveTo compare the difference in sleep quality between PFO-positive and PFO-negative migraine patients， and to analyzes influencing factors of sleep quality in PFO-positive migraine patients， so as to provide references for clinical interventions to improve sleep quality in PFO-positive migraine patients. MethodsA total of 673 migraine patients who met the diagnostic criteria of migraine in the International Classification of Headache Disorders， third edition （ICHD-3）， and all patients underwent contrast-enhanced transcranial Doppler （c-TCD） and transthoracic echocardiographic right heart contrast echocardiography （cTTE） in the Third Hospital of Mianyang from January 2020 to October 2024. Basic demographic data were collected using a self-designed questionnaire， headache severity was assessed with the Visual Analogue Scale （VAS）， and sleep quality was invaluated using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index （PSQI）. PFO patients was diagnosed through c-TCD combined with c-TTE. Binary logistic regression analysis was employed to examine the influencing factors of sleep quality in PFO-positive migraine patients. ResultsA total of 673 （100.00%） migraine patients were enrolled， including 223 PFO-positive cases （33.14%） and 450 PFO-negative cases（66.86%）. The PFO-positive group showed significantly more severe headache severity （χ²=15.799， P<0.01） and poorer sleep quality （χ²=14.377， P<0.01） compared with PFO-negative group. PFO-positive patients demonstrated significantly higher barrier factor scores of sleep quality， sleep latency， sleep efficiency， sleep disturbance， hypnotic medication use， and daytime dysfunction compared with PFO-negative counterparts （t=3.634， 3.269， 2.785， 3.428， 2.907， 3.637， Bonferroni adjust P<0.05/7=0.007）.By contrast， no significant difference was noted in sleep duration scores between the two groups（t=2.349， Bonferroni adjust P>0.05/7=0.007）.The Binary Logistic regression analysis revealed that age （OR=1.021， 95% CI： 1.001~1.041）， headache severity （OR=6.030， 95% CI： 4.085~8.901）， and PFO grade （OR=1.893，95% CI： 1.288~2.784）were significant influencing factors for sleep quality in migraine patients with PFO. ConclusionMigraine patients with PFO-positive exhibited poorer sleep quality compared wtih PFO-negative patients. Older age， higher headache servity， and more severe PFO grade are identified as risk factors for impaired sleep quality in PFO-positive migraine patients.

Objective To evaluate the protective effect of radiation protection safety education (RPSE) on patients with differentiated thyroid carcinoma (DTC) undergoing iodine-131 (¹³¹I) treatment. Methods The DTC patients who undergo ¹³¹I treatment were divided into the control group and the RPSE group using the convenience sampling method, with 142 patients in each group. Patients in the control group received routine health education, while the RPSE group received routine health education combined with RPSE. Dose equivalent rate (DER) on pillows, bed sheets, quilt covers, and household waste of patients were compared between the two groups upon discharge. Results The median (M) DERs of patients' pillows, bed sheets, quilt covers and household waste were 3.86, 3.63, 3.91 and 56.59 times higher in the control group compared with the environmental background level, respectively. The M DERs of patients' pillows, bed sheets, quilt covers were 2.23, 2.18, and 2.55 times higher in the RPSE group compared with the environmental background level, while the M DER of household waste was equivalent to the environmental background level. The DERs of patients' pillows, bed sheets, quilt covers, and household waste in the RPSE group were significantly lower than those in the control group (all P<0.001). The DERs of the above four items were lower in both male and female patients in RPSE group compared with same-gender patients in the control group (all P<0.001). The patients' DERs of the above indicators had no significant difference among different gender in both control group and RPSE group (all P>0.05), except for higher DER of household waste in female patients than that of male patients in the control group (P<0.05). There were no significant differences in the DERs of pillows, bed sheets, quilt covers, and household waste across subgroups, where patients received different treatment doses, of both the control group and the RPSE group (all P>0.05). Conclusion RPSE for DTC patients treated with ¹³¹I, reduces the DERs of pillows, bed sheets, quilt covers, and particularly household waste.

Background Sleep is a crucial physiological activity for the human body, and research has shown that air pollution can affect sleep quality. However, the association between polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) exposure, neurotoxic compounds in air pollutants, and sleep quality remains uncertain. Objective To evaluate the association of PAHs exposure with sleep quality, and to provide evidence for improving sleep quality. Methods This study used a cross-sectional design. We selected 632 workers from a coking plant of a large state-owned enterprise as the exposure group, and 477 workers from the energy and power plant of the same enterprise as the control group. All workers worked in three shifts. A questionnaire survey was conducted to collect basic information including gender, years of service, age, educational level, smoking, alcohol consumption, consumption of fried foods, cooking frequency, types of cooking fuels. Worker's post-shift morning midstream urine was sampled to determine the concentrations of eight PAHs metabolites (OH-PAHs) using gas chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (GC-MS). Worker's sleep quality was assessed using Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI). A higher PSQI score indicated a lower sleep quality. Associations of urinary OH-PAHs levels with sleep quality in the workers were analyzed using linear regression, Bayesian kernel-machine regression (BKMR), and quantile g-computation. Results The median (P₂₅, P₇₅) concentration of total OH-PAHs in the exposure group [88.84 (46.27, 151.96) μg·L⁻¹] was higher than that in the control group [54.33 (24.86, 97.97) μg·L⁻¹]. Additionally, the PSQI score (\begin{document}$ \overline{x}\pm {s} $\end{document}) in the exposure group (5.16±3.84) was higher than that in the control group (4.60±3.17). The multiple linear regression revealed that an increase in the sum of the concentrations of eight OH-PAHs after natural logarithmic transformation (lnΣ₈OH-PAHs) was associated with an increase of 0.3646 (95%CI: 0.1337, 0.5955) in PSQI score, and an increase in lnΣlow-ring OH-PAHs was associated with an increase of 0.2954 (95%CI: 0.0941, 0.4967) in PSQI score. The BKMR analysis demonstrated that PSQI score was gradually increased as the increasing of lnΣ₈OH-PAHs concentration. The quantile g-computation analysis indicated that a quantile increase in lnΣ₈OH-PAHs concentration was associated with an increase of 0.4062% (95%CI: 0.1176%, 0.6949%) in PSQI score. Conclusion Compared to the controls, the coking workers show a higher concentration of urinary OH-PAHs and report worse sleep quality. The concentration of OH-PAHs is significantly negatively associated with sleep quality.

ObjectiveTo identify the rate， population characteristics， and vaccination history of repeat infections among previously infected people in the current epidemic based on the rate of repeat infection and population characteristics of different mutant strains at different times in Pudong New Area of Shanghai， and to provide reference for the prevention and control strategies of novel coronavirus repeat infections. MethodsA total of 9 250 investigated subjects were randomly selected from the new cases of asymptomatic infection and confirmed cases reported by Pudong New Area from March to May 2022. The investigation mainly focused on demographic characteristics， nucleic acid or antigen test results， and symptoms after infection. The repeat infection rates among different populations were compared， and logistic regression was used to analyze the impact of gender， age， and vaccination status on repeat infections. ResultsThe survey sample of 9 250 people had a response rate of 81.85%. There were 4 043 males （53.40%） and 3 528 females （46.60%）， with a median age of 34 years old （P₂₅， P₇₅： 7， 61）. The overall vaccine uptake rate was 59.44% （4 500/7 571）. In December of 2022， there were 563 cases of repeat infection， with an infection rate of 7.44%. The lowest rate of repeat infection was seen in the 3‒ year-old group （2.86%） and the highest rate in the 30‒ year-old group （12.42%）， with significant differences between different age groups. The repeated infection rate for those who had completed their vaccinations was significantly lower （6.57%） compared to those who had not （7.11%）. The age groups of 3‒ years， 70‒79 years， as well as individuals who completed full vaccination and received booster shots were protective factors against repeat infections. ConclusionThe overall rate of reinfection among the infected in Shanghai during the spring of 2022 was low in the outbreak of the Omicron variant， and the rate of reinfection in the 3‒ year-old group was significantly lower than in other age groups. Completing the full course of vaccination significantly reduces the risk of reinfection. Although the reinfection rate is high in individuals who received booster shots， it remains a mitigating factor compared to those who do not receive the vaccine. It is recommended to continue monitoring reinfections in key populations and further strengthen immunization efforts.

Objective:To discuss the effect of Jiegeng Yuanshen Tang(JGYST)on airway tissue inflammation and mucus secretion in the mice with allergic asthma,and to clarify the related mechanism.Methods:Forty male C57BL/J mice were randomly divided into control group,JGYST group,ovalbumin(OVA)group,and OVA + JGYST group.The mice in OVA group and OVA +JGYST group were sensitized with 50 μg OVA via intraperitoneal injection twice weekly,followed by 20 μg OVA nasal drops daily for 7 d to induce asthma;the mice in OVA +JGYST group were gavaged with 200 μL JGYST 1 h before each OVA challenge,and the administration lasted for 7 d;the mice in control group were given equivalent dose of PBS via intraperitoneal injection,nasal drops,and gavage;the mice in JGYST group were given the same dose of PBS for intraperitoneal and nasal administration and gavaged with the same dose of JGYST.The pathomorphology of lung tissue of the mice in various groups was observed by HE staining and periodic acid-Schiff(PAS)staining,and the inflammation and PAS scores were calculated;flow cytometry method was used to detect the numbers of eosinophils,neutrophils,helper T lymphocyte 1(Th1)cells,helper T lymphocyte 2(Th2)cells,and dendritic cells(DCs),as well as the percentage of mature DCs and level of reactive oxygen species(ROS)in lung tissue of the mice in various groups;real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR(RT-qPCR)method was used to detect the expression levels of interleukin-4(IL-4),interleukin-10(IL-10),and tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)mRNA in lung tissue of the mice in various groups.Results:The HE and PAS staining results showed that the mice in control group had intact airway and alveolar structure,without infiltration of inflammatory cells or mucus secretion;compared with control group,there was a large number of infiltrating inflammatory cells in airway tissue of the mice in OVA group,and the inflammation and PAS scores were increased(P<0.01);compared with OVA group,the infiltration of inflammatory cells in airway tissue of the mice in JGYST group and OVA + JGYST group was decreased,and the inflammation and PAS scores were significantly decreased(P<0.01).The flow cytometry results showed that compared with control group,the numbers of eosinophils,Th2 cells,and DCs in lung tissue of the mice in OVA group were increased(P<0.05 or P<0.01),and the percentage of mature DCs and level of ROS were significantly increased(P<0.01);compared with OVA group,the numbers of eosinophils,Th2 cells,and DCs in lung tissue of the mice in JGYST group and OVA + JGYST group were decreased(P<0.01),and the percentage of mature DCs and level of ROS were significantly decreased(P<0.01).The RT-qPCR results showed that compared with control group,the expression levels of IL-4,IL-10,and TNF-α mRNA in lung tissue of the mice in OVA group were increased(P<0.01);compared with OVA group,the expression levels of IL-4 and TNF-α mRNA in lung tissue of the mice in JGYST group and OVA + JGYST group were decreased(P<0.01),while the expression level of IL-10 mRNA was increased(P<0.01).Conclusion:JGYST can alleviate the airway tissue inflammation and mucus secretion in the mice with allergic asthma,and its mechanism may be related to reducing the number of Th2 cells and DCs,decreasing the ROS level and expression level of proinflammatory cytokine,and increasing the expression level of anti-inflammatory cytokine.
