The construction of health culture is a crucial factor for the sustainable development of public health. It is also one of the key driving forces for consolidating the achievements of poverty alleviation， effectively linking rural revitalization， and benefiting the well-being work in Xinjiang’s people. To play the role of health culture in shaping the soul and cultivating the foundation of well-being work in Xinjiang’s people， it is necessary to clarify the necessity of integrating health culture into Xinjiang’s governance strategy and medical assistance， and to analyze the logical causes of cultivating people through culture and nourishing the essence through literature. This paper specifically analyzed and sorted out the development process and achievements of the Party Central Committee’s medical and health assistance to Xinjiang during the socialist construction period， the reform and opening-up， and the new era. It also dissected the problems and challenges of healthy cultural moistening Xinjiang from the perspective of cultural moistening Xinjiang in the new era， such as weak medical conditions， prominent health problems， a lack of health awareness among grassroots people， as well as insufficient emphasis on education， construction， training， and development of the “great health” culture. The convergence and integration of Xinjiang’s governance strategy and health culture moistening Xinjiang will be realized， thereby safeguarding the well-being of Xinjiang’s people through implementing the national health plan， strengthening the education of public health and wellness skilled personnel， establishing and perfecting the training and continuing education system for health technicians in Xinjiang， and establishing the concept of a “great health” culture.

BACKGROUND:Zinc-based alloy medical implant materials have excellent mechanical properties,complete degradability and good biocompatibility,and are mainly used in orthopedic implants,cardiovascular stents,bile duct stents,tracheal stents,nerve catheters,etc. OBJECTIVE:To review the research progress of biodegradable zinc-based alloys in bone defect repair and prospect the promising research direction and achievements of zinc-based materials. METHODS:After searching PubMed,Web of Science,WanFang Data,and CNKI databases from the establishment of the database to June 2023,various relevant articles on biodegradable zinc-based alloys for bone implant material research were collected.The basic characteristics of biodegradable zinc based alloys were summarized,and the role of zinc-based alloys in promoting bone tissue repair was sorted and summarized.The current research hotspots and shortcomings were discussed. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Zinc-based alloys have good biocompatibility.Using zinc-based alloys as the matrix material,with the help of scaffold structure construction technology and coating optimization process,the bone conductivity of zinc-based alloys will be effectively improved,and their degradation products will have efficient bone induction to regulate the gene expression of osteoblasts and osteoclasts,thereby promoting the repair and reconstruction of bone defects.(2)However,in the research on optimizing zinc-based alloys,the coating process is relatively insufficient,and additive loading technology is still lacking.(3)Zinc-based alloys have excellent mechanical and biological properties.Through special processes,their bone conductivity and osteoinductivity can be increased to effectively improve their ability to promote bone repair and reconstruction,and it is expected to further achieve the development of personalized transplant materials.Further research and development are needed to optimize the integration of coating and additive loading technologies into zinc-based alloys.

OBJECTIVE:The optimal non-surgical therapy for chronic ankle instability remains unclear due to the continuous introduction of novel treatment methods despite the availability of several non-surgical options for improving foot and ankle function and dynamic balance in chronic ankle instability patients.This study aims to investigate the most effective non-surgical therapy options to improve foot and ankle function and dynamic balance for patients with chronic ankle instability using a network meta-analysis. METHODS:Using"CAI,exercise,and randomized controlled trial"as search terms,a literature search of PubMed,Embase,Cochrane Library,and Web of Science databases was conducted through a computer network to collect information from the databases from their inception to March 2024 on non-surgical therapies for the treatment of chronic ankle instability randomized controlled trials on foot and ankle function or dynamic balance in patients.EndNote software was utilized for literature management.RevMan 5.4 software and Cochrane Risk of Bias Assessment Tool were used to evaluate the risk of bias of the included literature.Paired meta-analysis and network meta-analysis of the outcomes such as the Foot and Ankle Ability Measure in daily living subscale score,Foot and Ankle Ability Measure in sports activities subscale score,Star Excursion Balance Test-Anterior score,Star Excursion Balance Test-Posteromedial score,Star Excursion Balance Test-Posterolateral score and Cumberland ankle instability tool score were performed using the network commands of Stata 14.0 software.The strength of evidence rating of the outcome metrics was evaluated according to the GRADE Level of Evidence and Strength of Recommendation Grading Criteria. RESULTS:Of the 22 randomized controlled trials that met the inclusion criteria,1 study was rated as low risk,8 studies were rated as medium risk,and 13 studies were rated as high risk,enrolling a total of 952 patients and 25 treatments.(1)Network meta-analysis showed that compared with the control group,Isokinetic Strength Training,Balance Training,Balance+Stroboscopic Glasses Training,Strength Training,Joint Mobilizations Training,CrossFit Training,CrossFit Training+Self-Mobilization,Wobble Board Training,National Academy of Sport Medicine corrective exercise program,Trigger Point Dry Needling,and Neuromuscular Training had different significant enhancement effects on improving foot and ankle function and dynamic balance in patients with chronic ankle instability(P<0.05).(2)Cumulative probability ranking results showed that the three treatments with the highest ranked Cumberland ankle instability tool score were Joint Mobilizations Training(88.6%)>Visual Feedback Balance Training(83.1%)>CrossFit Training+Self-Mobilization(74.8%);the three treatments with the highest ranked Star Excursion Balance Test-Anterior score were Joint Mobilizations Training(88.4%)>Isokinetic Strength Training(86.9%)>National Academy of Sport Medicine corrective exercise program(65.0%);the three treatments with the highest ranked Star Excursion Balance Test-Posteromedial score were Balance+Stroboscopic Glasses Training(87.4%)>Neuromuscular Training(74.6%)>Strength Training(68.9%);the three treatments with the highest ranked Star Excursion Balance Test-Posterolateral score were CrossFit Training+Self-Mobilization(74.6%)>Balance+Stroboscopic Glasses Training(70.0%)>Neuromuscular Training(63.7%);the three treatments with the highest ranked Foot and Ankle Ability Measure in daily living subscale score were National Academy of Sport Medicine corrective exercise program(91.9%)>Balance+Stroboscopic Glasses Training(85.6%)>Wobble Board Training(82.2%);the three treatments with the highest ranked Foot and Ankle Ability Measure in sports activities subscale score were Balance+Stroboscopic Glasses Training(93.5%)>Balance Training(86.7%)>National Academy of Sport Medicine corrective exercise program(86.4%). CONCLUSION:Non-surgical therapies can significantly improve foot and ankle function and dynamic balance in patients with chronic ankle instability.National Academy of Sport Medicine corrective exercise program had the best efficacy in improving foot and ankle daily activity function in chronic ankle instability patients;Balance+Stroboscopic Glasses Training had the best efficacy in improving foot and ankle sports function and posterior medial dynamic balance;Joint Mobilizations Training had the best efficacy in improving anterolateral dynamic balance and ankle instability condition;and CrossFit Training+Self-Mobilization had the best efficacy in improving posterior lateral dynamic balance.The strength of evidence for each outcome was low,influenced by the risk of methodological bias and risk of publication bias of the included studies.Therefore,the above conclusions need to be validated by more high-quality pilot studies.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the effectiveness of free paraumbilical perforator flaps in repairing skin and soft tissue defects in children. METHODS: Between February 2018 and March 2024, 12 children with skin and soft tissue defects were treated with the free paraumbilical perforator flaps. There were 7 boys and 5 girls with an average age of 6.3 years (range, 2-12 years). The defects located on the upper limbs in 6 cases, lower limbs in 5 cases, and neck in 1 case. The causes of wounds included 7 cases of electrical burns, 1 case of thermal burn, 2 cases of scar release and excision due to scar contraction after burns, 1 case of scar ulcer at the amputation stump after severe burns, and 1 case of skin necrosis after a traffic accident injury. The size of defects after debridement ranged from 7.0 cm×4.0 cm to 18.0 cm×10.0 cm. According to the defect size, 11 cases were repaired with unilateral paraumbilical perforator flaps centered on the umbilicus, among which 3 cases with larger defects were designed as "L"-shaped flaps along the lateral and lower ends of the perforator; the donor sites were directly closed. One case with extensive defect after scar excision and release was repaired with bilateral expanded paraumbilical perforator flaps; the donor sites were repaired with autologous split-thickness skin grafts. The size of flaps ranged from 9.0 cm×4.0 cm to 20.0 cm×11.0 cm. Postoperatively, analgesia and sedation were provided, and the blood supply of the flaps was observed. RESULTS: All operations were successfully completed. The operation time was 4-7 hours, with an average of 5.0 hours. After postoperative analgesia and sedation, the visual analogue scale (VAS) score for pain in all children was less than or equal to 3, and there was no non-cooperation due to pain. All flaps and skin grafts survived completely, and the wounds healed by first intention. Ten children underwent 1-4 times of flap de-fatting, finger separation, and trimming. All children were followed up 6-48 months (mean, 26.6 months). No obvious swelling of the flaps occurred, and the texture was soft. At last follow-up, among the 6 children with upper limb defects, 2 had upper limb function grade Ⅳ and 4 had upper limb function grade Ⅴ according to the Carroll upper limb function assessment method. The 4 children with lower limb defects had no limitation of joint movement. The neck flexion and rotation in the 1 child with neck defect significantly improved when compared with that before operation. The 1 child with residual ulcer at the amputation stump could wear a prosthesis and move without limitation, and no new ulcer occurred. Linear scars were left at the donor sites, and no abdominal wall hernia was formed. CONCLUSION The free paraumbilical perforator flap has abundant blood supply and can be harvested in large size. It can be used to repair skin and soft tissue defects in children and has the advantages of short operation time, minimal injury, high safety, and minimal impact on the growth and development of children.

Background::Thoracic aortic aneurysm (TAA) is a fatal cardiovascular disease, the pathogenesis of which has not yet been clarified. This study aimed to identify and validate the diagnostic markers of TAA to provide a strong theoretical basis for developing new methods to prevent and treat this disease.Methods::Gene expression profiles of the GSE9106, GSE26155, and GSE155468 datasets were acquired from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified using the "limma" package in R. Least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO), support vector machine-recursive feature elimination (SVM-RFE), random forest, and binary logistic regression analyses were used to screen the diagnostic marker genes. Single-sample gene set enrichment analysis (ssGSEA) was used to estimate immune cell infiltration in TAA.Results::A total of 16 DEGs were identified. The enrichment and functional correlation analyses showed that DEGs were mainly associated with inflammatory response pathways and collagen-related diseases. Collagen type I alpha 1 chain ( COL1A1) and synaptotagmin like 2 ( SYTL2) were identified as diagnostic marker genes with a high diagnostic value for TAA. The expression of COL1A1 and SYTL2 was considerably higher in TAA vascular wall tissues than in the corresponding normal tissues, and there were significant differences in the infiltration of immune cells between TAA and normal vascular wall tissues. Additionally, COL1A1 and SYTL2 expression were associated with the infiltration of immune cells in the vascular wall tissue. Single-cell analysis showed that COL1A1 in TAA was mainly derived from fibroblasts and SYTL2 mainly from cluster of differentiation (CD)8 + T cells. In addition, single-cell analysis indicated that fibroblasts and CD8 + T cells in TAA were significantly higher than those in normal arterial wall tissue. Conclusions::COL1A1 and SYTL2 may serve as diagnostic marker genes for TAA. The upregulation of SYTL2 and COL1A1 may be involved in the inflammatory infiltration of the vessel wall and poor extracellular matrix remodeling, promoting the progression of TAA.

Objective:To explore the prenatal ultrasound phenotype and genetic basis of two fetuses with Wolf-Hirschhorn syndrome (WHS).Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the ultrasound imaging data of two fetuses suspected for WHS at the Prenatal Diagnostic Center of Qingyuan People′s Hospital in July 2017 and August 2019, respectively. Amniotic fluid samples of the two fetuses were subjected to chromosomal karyotyping and chromosomal microarray analysis (CMA). This study was approved by Medical Ethics Committee of the Qingyuan People′s Hospital (Ethics No. IRB-2022-064).Results:Prenatal ultrasound examination of the two fetuses had consistently revealed WHS-associated traits including intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR), craniofacial abnormalities and cardiovascular anomalies. Karyotyping analysis suggested that both fetuses had harbored cryptic chromosomal translocations involving partial deletion of 4p. And parental verification revealed that it was de novo for fetus 1 and paternal for fetus 2. CMA has confirmed that fetus 1 had an approximately 8.7 Mb deletion at 4p16.3p16.1 and a 6.8 Mb duplication at 8p23.1p23.1, whilst fetus 2 had a 20.05 Mb deletion at 4p16.3p15.31 and a 7.66 Mb duplication at 9p24.3p24.1. The karyotype of fetus 1 was determined as 46, XN, der(4)t(4; 8)(p16.1; p23.1)dn.arr[hg19]4p16.3p16.1(68345_8721580)×1, 8p23.3p23.1(158048_6933745)×3, and that of fetus 2 was determined as 46, XN, der(4)t(4; 9)(p15.3; p24)dpat.arr[hg19]4p16.3p15.31(68345_20116061)×1, 9p24.3p24.1(208454_7868292)×3. Conclusion:The 4p deletion is probably the main cause for the WHS phenotype in both fetuses. WHS should be suspected when IUGR, renal anomalies, craniofacial and cardiovascular abnormalities are detected upon prenatal ultrasound screening.

Long non-coding RNAs(lncRNAs)play an indispensable role in the occurrence and development of ovarian cancer(OC).However,the potential involvement of lncRNAs in the progression of OC is largely unknown.To investigate the detailed roles and mechanisms of RAD51 homolog B-antisense 1(RAD51B-AS1),a novel lncRNA in OC,reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction(RT-qPCR)was performed to verify the expression of RAD51B-AS1.Cellular proliferation,metastasis,and apoptosis were detected using the cell counting kit-8(CCK-8),colony-formation,transwell,and flow cytometry assays.Mouse xenograft models were established for the detection of tumorigenesis.The results revealed that RAD51B-AS1 was significantly upregulated in a highly metastatic human OC cell line and OC tissues.RAD51B-AS1 significantly increased the proliferation and metastasis of OC cells and enhanced their resistance to anoikis.Biogenetics prediction analysis revealed that the only target gene of RAD51B-AS1 was RAD51B.Subsequent gene function experiments revealed that RAD51B exerts the same biological effects as RAD51B-AS1.Rescue experiments demonstrated that the malignant biological behaviors promoted by RAD51B-AS1 overexpression were partially or completely reversed by RAD51B silencing in vitro and in vivo.Thus,RAD51B-AS1 promotes the malignant biological behaviors of OC and activates the protein kinase B(Akt)/B cell lymphoma protein-2(Bcl-2)signaling pathway,and these effects may be associated with the positive regulation of RAD51B expression.RAD51B-AS1 is expected to serve as a novel molecular biomarker for the diagnosis and prediction of poor prognosis in OC,and as a potential therapeutic target for disease management.

The COVID-19 epidemic has spread to the whole world for three years and has had a serious impact on human life, health and economic activities. China's epidemic prevention and control has gone through the following stages: emergency unconventional stage, emergency normalization stage, and the transitional stage from the emergency normalization to the "Category B infectious disease treated as Category B" normalization, and achieved a major and decisive victory. The designated hospitals for prevention and control of COVID-19 epidemic in Tianjin has successfully completed its tasks in all stages of epidemic prevention and control, and has accumulated valuable experience. This article summarizes the experience of constructing a hospital infection prevention and control system during the "Category B infectious disease treated as Category A" period in designated hospital. The experience is summarized as the "Cluster" hospital infection prevention and control system, namely "three rings" outside, middle and inside, "three districts" of green, orange and red, "three things" before, during and after the event, "two-day pre-purification" and "two-director system", and "one zone" management. In emergency situations, we adopt a simplified version of the cluster hospital infection prevention and control system. In emergency situations, a simplified version of the "Cluster" hospital infection prevention and control system can be adopted. This system has the following characteristics: firstly, the system emphasizes the characteristics of "cluster" and the overall management of key measures to avoid any shortcomings. The second, it emphasizes the transformation of infection control concepts to maximize the safety of medical services through infection control. The third, it emphasizes the optimization of the process. The prevention and control measures should be comprehensive and focused, while also preventing excessive use. The measures emphasize the use of the least resources to achieve the best infection control effect. The fourth, it emphasizes the quality control work of infection control, pays attention to the importance of the process, and advocates the concept of "system slimming, process fattening". Fifthly, it emphasizes that the future development depends on artificial intelligence, in order to improve the quality and efficiency of prevention and control to the greatest extent. Sixth, hospitals need to strengthen continuous training and retraining. We utilize diverse training methods, including artificial intelligence, to ensure that infection control policies and procedures are simple. We have established an evaluation and feedback mechanism to ensure that medical personnel are in an emergency state at all times.

The rational use of medical insurance fund(MIF) plays an important role in promoting the high-quality development of public hospitals, and the supervision of MIF is in a trend of under the rule of law, normalization, professionalization and standardization, and unannounced inspection will become the norm. The authors systematically analyzed three main trends of MIF unannounced inspections, namely, gradually increasing intensity, constantly innovating methods, and increasingly serious consequences. The problems exposed in unannounced inspections were sorted out from five dimensions: form of results, severity, scope of attribution, subjective intention, and regulatory screening ideas. The enlightenment of MIF unannounced inspections to hospital management was explored from four aspects: compliance awareness, organizational system, fine management, and daily supervision. It was proposed that public hospitals should transform their roles and positions, improve the working mechanism of departmental collaboration, and achieve fine management in policy understanding, system formulation, process design, information support, data governance, regulatory implementation, personnel training, and performance matching. At the same time, internal simulated unannounced inspections in hospitals should be regarded as a routine work.

Objective:To investigate the interaction between fibroblasts (Fb) and keratinocytes (KC) in the wound edge skin tissue of a diabetic foot patient and the mechanism.Methods:This was an experimental research. The wound edge skin tissue from a diabetic foot patient (male and 33 years old) admitted to the Department of Wound Repair of Liyuan Hospital Affiliated to Tongji Medical College of Huazhong University of Science and Technology in August 2021 and from an acute foot injury patient (male and 50 years old) admitted to the Department of Hand Surgery of the hospital in September 2021 was collected. The single-cell transcriptome sequencing was performed to analyze the interaction between chemokine ligands of Fb subgroup and chemokine receptors of KC subgroup. The supernatant was collected after human foreskin fibroblast (HFF) was cultured routinely and with high concentration of glucose for 7 days as normal conditioned medium (CM) and high glucose CM, respectively. HaCaT cells were collected and divided into normal CM group cultured with normal CM and high glucose CM group cultured with high glucose CM, the scratch test was performed to calculate the cell migration rates at 24 and 48 h after scratch ( n=3). The content of cytokines in the two kinds of CM was detected by liquid suspension chip ( n=5). HFF was collected and divided into normal group cultured routinely and high glucose group cultured with high concentration of glucose for 7 days, and the mRNA expressions of C-X-C motif chemokine ligand 1 (CXCL1), CXCL2, CXCL8, and CXCL12 were detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction ( n=6). HaCaT cells in normal CM group and high glucose CM group were collected to detect the protein expressions of C-X-C motif chemokine receptor 4 (CXCR4) in cells cultured for 48 h by Western blotting ( n=3). HaCaT cells were collected and divided into normal CM group, high glucose CM group, normal CM+CXCL12 group, and high glucose CM+CXCL12 group. The first two groups of cells were treated as before, and the latter two groups of cells were cultured with normal CM and high glucose CM containing recombinant human CXCL12, respectively. Scratch test was performed, and cell migration rates were calculated at 24 and 48 h after scratch ( n=3); the protein expression of CXCR4 in cells cultured for 48 h was detected by Western blotting ( n=3). Results:Compared with those in the wound edge skin tissue of acute foot injury, the interactions between chemokine ligands (CXCL1, CXCL2, CXCL3, CXCL8, and CXCL12) of Fb subgroup and chemokine receptors (CXCR2 and CXCR4) of KC subgroup were significantly weakened in the wound edge skin tissue of diabetic foot. At 24 and 48 h after scratch, the migration rates of HaCaT cells in high glucose CM group were significantly lower than those in normal CM group (with t values of 23.50 and 15.65, respectively, P<0.05). Compared with that in normal CM, the content of CXCL1 in high glucose CM was significantly increased ( P<0.05), and the content of CXCL12 was significantly decreased ( P<0.05). After 7 days of culture, compared with those in normal group, the mRNA expressions of CXCL1, CXCL2, and CXCL8 in HFF in high glucose group were significantly increased (with t values of 4.25, 4.98, and 10.04, respectively, P<0.05), while the mRNA expression of CXCL12 was significantly decreased ( t=4.10, P<0.05). After 48 h of culture, the CXCR4 protein expression in HaCaT cells in high glucose CM group was significantly lower than that in normal CM group ( t= 5.13, P<0.05). At 24 and 48 h after scratch, the migration rates of HaCaT cells in high glucose CM group were significantly lower than those in normal CM group and high glucose CM+CXCL12 group (with P values all <0.05); at 24 h after scratch, the migration rate of HaCaT cells in normal CM+CXCL12 group was significantly lower than that in normal CM group ( P<0.05); at 48 h after scratch, the migration rate of HaCaT cells in normal CM+CXCL12 group was significantly higher than that in high glucose CM+CXCL12 group ( P<0.05). At 48 h of culture, the CXCR4 protein expression of HaCaT cells in high glucose CM+CXCL12 group was 0.446±0.050, which was significantly higher than 0.247±0.010 in high glucose CM group ( P<0.05) and similar to 0.522±0.082 in normal CM+CXCL12 group ( P>0.05); the CXCR4 protein expression in HaCaT cells in normal CM group was 0.509±0.055, which was significantly higher than that in high glucose CM group ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The interactions between chemokine ligands of Fb subgroup and chemokine receptors of KC subgroup were significantly weakened in the wound edge skin tissue of diabetic foot. High glucose can inhibit CXCL12 secretion of HFF, and the stimulation of its cell culture supernatant can decrease HaCaT cell migration ability and CXCR4 expression. Exogenous CXCL12 protein can increase the CXCR4 protein expression in HaCaT cells and enhance the cell migration ability.
