Background Anxiety and depression are common perinatal mental health issues that often occur together and can have serious negative effects on both maternal and infant health. Objective To examine the relationships between lifestyle factors and comorbid anxiety and depression (CAD) among pregnant women in Shanghai. Methods The study estimated the prevalence of CAD during the first, second, and third trimesters of pregnancy using the Self-rating Anxiety Scale (SAS) and Center for Epidemiological Studies-Depression (CES-D) based on data from the China National Birth Cohort (CNBC) embryonic-derived diseases with assisted reproductive technology (ART) sub-cohort. Information on demographics, sleep status, nutritional intake, and exercise during each trimester was collected through self-made questionnaires, the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), and the Food Frequency Questionnaire (FFQ). Lifestyle factors (such as sleep status, nutritional intake, and exercise during each trimester) were analyzed using logistic regression and generalized linear mixed models (GLMM) to determine their impacts on the prevalence of CAD (yes or no) among pregnant women. Results A total of 2876 pregnant women were included in this study. The prevalence of CAD was 10.6% (305), 3.6% (103), and 5.5% (159) in the first, second, and third trimesters of pregnancy, respectively. The logistic regression analysis revealed that poor sleep quality throughout the entire pregnancy were statistically associated with an increased prevalence of CAD, and the odds ratios (OR) with 95% confidence intervals (CI) were 2.817 (1.845, 4.301), 2.840 (1.855, 4.347), and 9.316 (5.835, 14.876) for the first, second, and third trimesters, respectively, when compared to good sleep quality. Additionally, compared to an intake frequency of 7 times per week, the frequency of egg intake ≤3 times per week in the first trimester (OR=2.025, 95%CI: 1.197, 3.425) and the frequency of egg intake of 4–6 times per week (OR=1.896, 95%CI: 1.117, 3.216) or ≤3 times per week (OR=1.906, 95%CI: 1.082, 3.357) in the third trimester were associated with an increased risk of CAD (P<0.05). Moreover, when compared to a frequency of exercise >3 times per week, never or almost never exercising in the second trimester (OR=2.218, 95%CI: 1.220, 4.035) was associated with an increased risk of CAD (P<0.05). The GLMM analysis also demonstrated a significant association between poor sleep quality, lower exercise frequency, or lower intake frequency of vegetables, eggs, or milk and an increased risk of CAD (P<0.05). Conclusion The prevalence of CAD among pregnant women in Shanghai follows a U-shaped distribution, with the highest rate occurring in early pregnancy and the lowest rate in mid-pregnancy. Factors such as poor sleep quality, inadequate intake of vegetables, eggs, or milk, and lack of exercise during pregnancy may increase the risk of CAD. Implementing lifestyle interventions during pregnancy could potentially reduce the risk of mental health problems and improve the overall health of both mothers and babies.

Objective:To explore the causal relationship between gut microbiota and lung function (FEV1/FVC) using two-sample Mendelian randomization method; To explore its application in the TCM field.Methods:This was a Mendelian randomization study. The GWAS data of gut microbiota from the MiBioGen consortium study and the GWAS data of lung function (FEV1/FVC) published by IEU OpenGWAS in the public database were used, and instrumental variables were extracted according to prespecified thresholds. The inverse variance weighted method (IVW) was mainly used for analysis. The results were evaluated according to the effect indicator β value and 95% CI. When the IVW method was statistically significant, further sensitivity analysis was performed. Leave-one-out test, heterogeneity test, horizontal gene pleiotropy test and MR-Egger regression intercept analysis were used to verify the stability and reliability of the results. Results:A total of 10 causal relationships between gut microbiota and lung function (FEV1/FVC) were determined using the IVW method: family. BacteroidalesS24.7group ( β=-0.029, P=0.015), family. ClostridialesvadinBB60group ( β=-0.028, P=0.040), family. Streptococcaceae ( β=-0.056, P=0.042), genus. LachnospiraceaeFCS020group ( β=0.025, P=0.029), genus. Lactococcus ( β=-0.024, P=0.038), genus. Peptococcus ( β=0.025, P=0.049), genus. RuminococcaceaeUCG011 ( β=-0.030, P=0.038), genus. Ruminococcus2 ( β=0.028, P=0.033), genus. Terrisporobacter ( β=-0.030, P=0.018), phylum. Cyanobacteria ( β=0.027, P=0.039). Leave-one-out analysis showed that the results were stable, and the effects of heterogeneity and horizontal gene pleiotropy on causal effect estimation could be removed. Conclusion:The gut microbiota may play a role in the changes of lung function, which to a certain extent confirms the TCM theory of "exterior-interior relationship between the lung and large intestine", and can provide certain reference for the research direction of TCM.

Objective:To analyze the monitoring data of Kashin-Beck disease (KBD) in Gansu Province and learn about the long-term trend of KBD incidence.Methods:The X-ray detection rate of children with KBD in Gansu Province from 1990 to 2021 was collected through Gansu Provincial Center for Disease Control and Prevention. Joinpoint regression model was used to analyze the trend of X-ray detection rate of KBD in children. The annual percent change (APC) and average annual percent change (AAPC) were used to analyze the trend of the observed indicators. In addition, a polynomial regression model was constructed to fit the change of X-ray detection rate of children with KBD over time.Results:From 1990 to 2021, a total of 126 726 children were examined for KBD by X-ray in Gansu Province, with 3 011 positive cases, X-ray detection rate of KBD in children was 0 in 2019 - 2021. Joinpoint regression model analysis showed that the X-ray detection rate of children with KBD in Gansu Province from 1990 to 2018 showed a decreasing trend (AAPC = - 14.40%, P = 0.001). The APC of 1990 - 1998, 2002 - 2008 and 2008 - 2012 was - 17.75%, - 21.89% and - 49.89%, respectively, showing a decreasing trend ( P < 0.05). The APC of 2012 - 2018 was 6.15%, but the trend change was not statistically significant ( P = 0.475). The curve fitting of X-ray detection rate of KBD in children in Gansu Province over time was carried out, and the quadric polynomial equation was y = 0.000 314 5 x4 - 0.021 37 x3 + 0.487 1 x2 - 4.635 x + 22.08. Conclusions:The condition of KBD in children of Gansu Province has been effectively controlled. The X-ray detection rate has remained at a relatively low level since 2012, and it has reached a state of elimination since 2019.

Objective To optimize a C57BL/6J mouse liver fibrosis model induced by different doses of carbon tetrachloride through imaging,molecular biology,and pathology method.Methods Thirty-six healthy C57BL/6J male mice were randomly divided into a control group,2 weeks,3 weeks,4 weeks,6 weeks,and 8 weeks groups(n=6)after adaptive feeding for 1 week.The control group was intraperitoneally injected with 0.2 mL olive oil three times a week,and the positive-control groups were intraperitoneally injected with 0.2 mL 20%CCl4-olive oil solution three times a week.Changes in the body weights of mice in each group were recorded.Liver stiffness was measured on days 15,22,29,43 and 57,and blood samples were collected,and cereal third alanine aminotransferase(ALT),aspartate aminotransferase(AST),hyaluronic acid(HA),laminin(LN),pro-typeⅢcollagen(PC-Ⅲ),and typeⅣcollagen(Ⅳ-C)content was measured.The liver tissues were stained with hematoxylin and eosin(HE),Masson,and Sirius red.The Metavir scoring system was used to evaluate the degree of liver fibrosis.Results Compared with the control group,mice in the positive-control groups were listless and tended to huddle together.In terms of body weight,the 4 weeks,6 weeks,and 8 weeks groups were significantly lighter than the control group,while the 2 weeks group mice were significantly heavier than the control group mice.Liver elastography showed a progressive increase in stiffness with increased administration time.The biochemical tests showed that,compared with the control group,the other groups'ALT and AST levels were significantly higher.With an increase in drug delivery time,the positive-control group's HA,LN,PC-Ⅲ and Ⅳ-C levels showed increasing trends.Pathological examination revealed that liver fibrosis was progressively aggravated with an increase in administration time.At 4 weeks,the pathological diagnosis was consistent with that of liver fibrosis,and there were signs of pseudolobule formation at 6 weeks.Pseudolobules were formed at 8 weeks,suggesting early cirrhosis.Conclusions A liver fibrosis model can be successfully established in C57BL/6J mice by intraperitoneal injection of 20%CCl4-olive oil solution three times a week for 4 consecutive weeks.The model has good stability,and the modeling method is rapid and can be used as an optimized scheme for the establishment of liver fibrosis models.

Objectives:To present the epidemiological characteristics of stroke incidence and stroke-related mortality among the whole population in national cardiovascular disease surveillance areas from 2015 to 2019. Methods:Data of stroke incidence and stroke-related mortality from 2015 to 2019 were collected from the China Registry of Cardiovascular Events(China RACE),which was established in 2014,covering 100 counties(cities,districts)in 31 provinces in China.The Joinpoint model was used to analyze the annual percentage changes(APC)and trends of stroke incidence rate.The age-standardized incidence rate(ASIR)was calculated using the Seventh National Census data as the standard population.With annual reported stroke events and stroke-related deaths,the mortality to incidence ratio(M/I)were examined. Results:From 2015 to 2019,an increase of 9.41%(APC=2.12%,95%CI:1.43%-2.82%,Ptrend<0.01)resulted in the overall stroke crude incidence rate(CIR)of 468.48/100 000 in 2019 among the whole population,with relatively higher in male and in rural area.The more sharply elevating of CIR appeared in males(11.26%[APC=2.53%,95%CI:1.83%-3.24%,Ptrend<0.01])rather than in females(7.26%[APC=1.63%,95%CI:0.81%-2.46%,Ptrend<0.01]).Meanwhile,the general ASIR decreased 7.47%(APC=-1.72%,95%CI:-3.23%--0.20%,Ptrend<0.05),reaching 523.82/100 000 in 2019.The females generally showed significant descending trend(9.56%[APC=-2.27%,95%CI:-3.99%--0.52%,Ptrend<0.05]),as well as more reduction than that in the males(15.82%vs.11.40%)in urban area.The crude incidence rate of stroke increased with age.From 2015 to 2019,the CIR in 45-49 age group increased 12.48%(APC=3.18%,95%CI:1.67%-4.72%,Ptrend<0.01),compared with an reduction of 15.76%(APC=-4.39%,95%CI:-7.63%--1.04%,Ptrend<0.05)in 80-84 age group.Over the monitoring years,the overall M/I was 0.19,with an age-specific U-shaped distribution.The lowest of M/I(0.10)appeared in those aged 50-54 and 55-59,while the highest(0.45)detected in those aged 85 and over.The M/I of all age in urban areas were consistently lower than that in rural areas. Conclusions:Stroke incidence burden increased from 2015-2019 in the national surveillance areas in China,along with the unfavorable geographic diversity and age-specific divergence.Further efforts are required to improve health care covering all ages and regions in China to reduce the incidence of stroke and stroke-related mortality.

Objectives:The present study aims to investigate the incidence and mortality feature of acute myocardial infarction(AMI)from 2015 to 2019 in China by utilizing national registry data. Methods:Data of AMI incidence and mortality in the surveillance area during 2015 to 2019 were abstracted from China Registry of Acute Cardiovascular Event(China RACE),which was established in 100 counties from 31 provincial regions in China.Incidence rate,age standardized incidence rate(ASIR)and mortality to incidence ratio(M/I)was estimated in AMI cases.A Joinpoint regression was executed and annual percent change(APC)was examined to identify trends in incidence. Results:From 2015 to 2019,a total of 257 686 acute myocardial infarction incidence and 149 169 deaths were registered.The annual incidence rate of AMI in 2019 was 82.76 per 100 000.Over the study period,the incidence rate of AMI increased by 6.05%for men(APC=1.30%,95%CI:0.56%to 2.02%)but decreased by 11.80%for women(APC=-3.10%,95%CI:-4.54%to-1.68%),resulting a steady trend for AMI crude incidence rate for the overall population.The overall ASIR of AMI declined by 16.59%(APC=-4.32%,95%CI:-5.32%to-3.34%)from 113.68 per 100 000 in 2015 to 94.82 per 100 000 in 2019.The ASIR of AMI declined by 11.04%(APC=-2.72%,95%CI:-3.78%to-1.67%)for men,23.96%(APC=-6.56%,95%CI:-8.57%to-4.58%)for women,12.57%(APC=-3.08%,95%CI:-6.01%to-0.08%)for the urban areas,and 19.24%(APC=-5.18%,95%CI:-10.19%to 0.03%)for rural areas respectively.The incidence rate of AMI increases gradually with age in both men and women.The incidence of AMI in urban men of 35-44 and 45-54 year age groups increased by 77.16%(APC=13.52%,95%CI:3.29%to 24.57%)and 26.36%(APC=5.71%,95%CI:-0.95%to 12.68%)over time.However,the incidence of AMI fell in the population above 65 year old,by 26.58%(APC=-6.68%,95%CI:-11.98%to-1.01%),19.85%(APC=-5.64%,95%CI:-11.57%to 0.65%)and 14.53%(APC=-4.44%,95%CI:-7.75%to-1.04%)in the 65-74 year age,75-84 year age and≥85year age groups respectively from 2015 to 2019.The mortality to incidence ratio of AMI was 0.58 over time,higher in women than in men,and higher in rural areas than in urban areas.The M/I ratio of AMI decreased from 0.62 in 2015 to 0.52 in 2019(APC=-4.28%,95%CI:-5.75%to-2.83%).There was a declined trends in M/I of AMI in urban residents of both male and female,and in the rural male residents(all P<0.05),while a steady trend in the rural female residents(P>0.05). Conclusions:The overall incidence of AMI remains steady during 2015 to 2019 in the national surveillance areas in China.Yet,downward trends in elder and female residents and increased trend in middle-aged urban males in AMI incidence are observed.The mortality of AMI in these period are age,sex and urban-rural dependent.Targeted mitigation strategies on AMI prevention and treatment need to be strengthened to reduce its incidence and mortality.

Objective:To analyze and assess the reliability of autoclaves of medical institution based on the failure data of the autoclaves of hospital.Methods:The failure data of autoclaves were analyzed by using four statistical models:Weibull distribution,Exponential distribution,Log-Normal distribution,and q-Weibull distribution.Chart tools were used to show the performance of different statistical distribution models in fitting data.Results:Comparisons of 4 kinds of statistical models revealed that the corrected Akaike Information Criterion(AICc)of statistical model of Log-Normal distribution was 564.4512,and the Bayesian Information Criterion(BIC)value(568.7691)of that was the lowest,and KS statistic(0.0739)of that was the smallest(P>0.05).Therefore,fitting effect of statistical model of Log-Normal distribution was the best fit,which was the most suitable model for analyzing the failure data set of autoclaves.Conclusion:Utilizing different statistical models to conduct the reliability analysis for failure data of autoclave can provide references for clinical engineers in optimizing maintenance strategies for autoclave.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.

ObjectiveTo analyze the distribution of traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） patterns as well as factors related to acute exacerbation in group E of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease （COPD）. MethodsThe general data of 161 COPD patients， including gender， age， body mass index （BMI）， disease course， smoking history， and past history， were collected. In terms of the four examinations of TCM， the differentiated patterns included phlegm-heat obstructing the lung， turbid phlegm obstructing the lung， phlegm stasis obstructing the lung， lung-spleen qi deficiency， and lung-kidney deficiency. The modified British Medical Research Council （mMRC） scale and COPD assessment test （CAT）， the pulmonary function indicators including forced expiratory volume in the first second （FEV1） and ratio of forced expiratory volume to forced vital capacity at second 1 （FEV1/FVC）， GOLD grade， and the patient's acute exacerbations in the previous year were recorded. Multivariate regression analysis was performed using logistic regression model to determine the relevant factors of patients in COPD group E. The distribution of acute exacerbations in different TCM symptom patients in group E was analyzed. ResultsThere were 80 patients （49.69%） in group E and 81 patients （50.31%） in non-group E. In group E， 23 （28.75%） patients had a history of two acute exacerbations， while 35 （43.75%） had three acute exacerbations， and 22 （27.5%） had more than three acute exacerbations. There were 13 （16.25%） cases of phlegm-heat obstructing the lung pattern， 6 （7.5%） cases of turbid phlegm obstructing the lung pattern， 8 （10%） cases of phlegm stasis obstructing the lung pattern， 22 cases （27.5%） of lung-spleen qi deficiency pattern， and 31 （38.75%） cases of lung-kidney deficiency pattern. There were significant differences in smoking history， disease course， TCM pattern， TCM syndrome score， mMRC score， and CAT score between groups （P＜0.05）. A total of 107 of the 161 patients completed pulmonary function tests， and the differences in FEV1， FEV1/FVC and GOLD grades between groups were statistically significant （P＜0.05）. Multivariate regression analysis showed that TCM pattern， TCM syndrome score and CAT score were statistically significant factors for COPD patients in group E （P＜0.05）. There were statistically significant differences in the number of acute exacerbations in different TCM patterns in group E （P＜0.05）. The patients with two acute exacerbations in the past year were mainly phlegm-heat obstructing the lung and lung-spleen qi deficiency patterns， while the three acute exacerbations were mainly seen in lung-spleen qi deficiency and lung-kidney deficiency patterns， and more than three exacerbations were more common with lung -kidney deficiency pattern. ConclusionsPatients in COPD group E were mainly the lung-spleen qi deficiency and lung-kidney deficiency patterns. Deficiency of healthy qi is the main reason for the increase in the number of acute exacerbations， and TCM patterns and CAT score were the main related factors.

Objective:To study the effect of Compound Duzhong Jiangu Granules on joint function, quality of life and inflammatory factors in patients with Kashin-Beck disease.Methods:By group design, 135 patients with Kashin-Beck disease in Chongxin County, Pingliang City, Gansu Province, were selected and divided into intervention group (100 cases treated with Compound Duzhong Jiangu Granules, 12 g/bag, 1 bag/time, 3 times/day, treatment for 1 month) and control group (35 cases treated with ibuprofen, 0.3 g/capsule, 1 capsule/time, 2 times/day, treatment for 2 weeks) according to the randomized, single-blind principle. The changes of joint dysfunction index score, joint function improvement rate, total scores of Kashin-Beck disease quality of life (KBDQOL) and scores of each dimension were analyzed before treatment, 1 month and 3 months after treatment. The serum levels of interleukin-6 (IL-6), nuclear factor κB (NFκB)-p65, inducible nitric oxide synthase (NOS2), nitric oxide (NO), and prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay before treatment and 1 month after treatment.Results:The total scores of joint dysfunction index of the intervention group and the control group 1 month after treatment and 3 months after treatment were lower than those before treatment, but 3 months after treatment was higher than 1 month after treatment ( P < 0.001). One month after treatment, the total effective rates of joint function improvement in the intervention group and the control group were 68.00% (68/100) and 54.55% (18/33), respectively; 3 months after treatment, the total effective rates of the intervention group and the control group were 36.00% (36/100) and 39.39%(13/33), respectively. The total scores and scores of each dimension of KBDQOL were not significant for the main effect of the group ( P > 0.05), but significant for the main effect at the time point ( P < 0.05), and there was no interactive effect ( P > 0.05). There were significant differences in the scores of social support and mental status dimensions in the intervention group at different time points ( P < 0.001). And in the intervention group, the total score, the scores of physical function, activity limitation, economy and overall health dimensions were statistically significant between before treatment and 1 month after treatment, 1 month after treatment and 3 months after treatment( P < 0.05); however, there was no significant difference between before treatment and 3 months after treatment ( P > 0.05). One month after treatment, the serum PGE2 levels of both groups were decreased ( P < 0.05), and there was no difference in other inflammatory factors at different groups and time points ( P > 0.05). Conclusion:Compound Duzhong Jiangu Granules can effectively inhibit the inflammatory reaction of patients with Kashin-Beck disease, promote the improvement of joint function and improve the quality of life in various aspects.
