By analyzing information such as the number of publications，authors，institutions and keywords in the literature on the integration of traditional Chinese medicine（TCM）culture into ideological and political education in the past 10 years，it was found that the overall number of publications showed an increasing trend. As the main research fronts，TCM colleges and universities had not yet formed teams in cooperation with other universities. The research hotspots were relatively concentrated，but the research horizons were not broad enough. It is suggested that in the future，policy should be taken as the guide to build a cross-regional interdisciplinary cooperation system，horizontally and vertically extend research subjects，innovate and construct diversified teaching models，continue to deeply explore and organically integrate ideological and political education elements，continuously improve the evaluation system of educational functions，and further enhance the timeliness of integrating traditional Chinese medicine culture into ideological and political education. So as to make greater contributions to cultivating talents in the new era and promoting the inheritance and innovation of TCM culture.

Objective To understand the HIV/AIDS burden and the disease burden attributed to various risk factors in four countries with different socio-demographic index (SDI) (China, United States, Russia, and Afghanistan) from 1990 to 2019, and to predict the HIV/AIDS attributable disease burden from 2020 to 2029. Methods The 2019 Global Burden of Disease Study data was used to describe and compare the incidence, prevalence, death, and DALYs of HIV/AIDS in the four countries. The standardized DALYs attributed to various risk factors in different age groups of HIV/AIDS in the four countries in 1990 and 2019 were compared. R4.3.0 was used to construct an autoregressive moving average mixed model to predict the attributable disease burden in each country over the next decade. Results Compared with 1990, in 2019, the standardized incidence rate, standardized prevalence rate, standardized mortality rate, and standardized DALYs rate in China and the other two countries, except the United States, showed an increase. People aged 10 to 49 years old were a key group for disease burden, and the main risk factors for disease burden varied among different countries and age groups. The autoregressive moving average mixed model predicted that the main risk factor for Russia in the next decade would be injecting drugs, while unsafe sexual behavior would occur in the other three countries. Conclusion There are differences in disease burden and risk factors among different genders and age groups globally and in the four different SDI countries. Therefore, differences should be fully considered to determine the focus of HIV/AIDS prevention and control and rationally allocate health resources.

A comprehensive understanding of the nutritional composition and active components of human milk are important for promoting infant health. However, in the design and implementation of scientific research on human milk, the lack of standardized research and implementation methods have led to the collection, storage, and testing processes of human milk samples being largely based on reference literature and practical experience. This has resulted in variability in the representativeness of human milk samples and differences in the comparability of research results between different studies. This article summarizes the principles and guidelines for the " Specification for collection and storage of human milk samples for research", published by the Chinese Nutrition Society on December 30, 2022, and discusses the feasibility and importance of standardized management in the process of scientific research on human milk.

Objective To provide the evidence for the development of personalized health education courses for twin pregnant women.We explored the health education and psychosocial demand of twin pregnant women from the perspective of social ecosystem theory.Methods By purposive sampling,18 twin pregnant women hospitalized in the twin medical center of a tertiary A hospital in Shenyang from January to March 2023 to conduct for semi-structured interviews,and Colaizzi's 7-step analysis method was used to sort out and analyze the data.Results 3 themes were extracted from the health education and psychosocial needs of twin pregnant women.Microsystem:the content needs of twin pregnant women's health education(the guidance needs of nutrition intake and weight growth;the needs for fetus health monitoring guidance;the cognitive needs of twin pregnancy complications;the needs for health education knowledge related to puerperium and the diversification of the choice of teaching methods).Mesosystem:the emotional support needs of twin pregnant women during prenatal and puetperal(the needs of family support and peer education support).Macrosystem:seeking social support and network information support(the demand of community support;the needs of information related to twin pregnant women's hierarchical management system and maternal fetal medical referral process and the needs for network health education information).Conclusion The women with twin pregnancy have different needs for health education content in each stage of pregnancy and puerperium,and there are urgent needs for emotional support and social support.Clinical nurses should construct health education courses according to the needs of twin women,and innovate in content and form,so as to improve the self-care ability of twin pregnant women and the knowledge level of family caregivers,and improve the pregnancy outcome.

Objective To investigate the relationship between Kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene homolog(KRAS),neuroblastoma viral oncogene RAS homolog(NRAS),V-raf murine sarcoma viral oncogene homo-log B(BRAF),human epidermal growth factor receptor 2(HER2)gene mutations and microsatellite instabili-ty(MSI)status and clinicopathological features in patients with colorectal cancer.Methods The clinical data of 226 patients with colorectal cancer treated in the hospital from October 2019 to March 2022 were collected.Next-generation sequencing technology was used to detect KRAS,NRAS,BRAF,HER2 gene mutations and MSI status.Immunohistochemistry was used to evaluate the mismatch repair system(MMR)status.Multiva-riate Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the relationship between KRAS,NRAS,BRAF,HER2 gene mutations and clinicopathological features.Results Among 226 colorectal cancer patients,the mutation frequencies of KRAS,NRAS,BRAF and HER2 were 54.89％,5.3％,8.4％and 1.8％,respectively.The fre-quency of KRAS mutation in mucinous adenocarcinoma was higher than that in common adenocarcinoma(P＜0.05).The risk of KRAS mutation in right colon cancer was increased(OR=2.145,P=0.012).NR AS gene mutation was more frequent in left colon and rectal cancer(P＜0.05).The frequency of BRAF gene mu-tation was higher in poorly differentiated and microsatellite instability-high(MSI-H)colorectal cancer(P＜0.05),and the risk of BRAF gene mutation in the right colon was increased(OR=2.844,P=0.042).HER2 gene amplification mutation showed distant metastasis(P＜0.05).KRAS mutations were mutually exclusive with NRAS,BRAF and HER2 amplification mutations(P＜0.05).MSI-H was more frequent in the right co-lon(P＜0.05).Of the 226 cases,10 cases were defective mismatch repair(dMMR)/MSI-H,8 cases were dM-MR/microsatellite stable,and 5 cases were proficient mismatch repair/MSI-H.There was a moderate agree-ment between dMMR and MSI-H(Kappa=0.575).Conclusion KRAS,NRAS,BRAF,HER2 and MSI sta-tus are associated with clinicopathological features in patients with colorectal cancer.Combined detection of KRAS,NRAS,BRAF,HER2 and MSI can provide more accurate and effective data to guide the treatment and prognosis of patients.

Objective To investigate the expression of long non-coding RNA(lncRNA),surfactant associated 1 pseudogene(SFTA1P)in lung squamous carcinoma and its effect on the biological functions of SFTA1P in lung squamous carcinoma cell lines.Methods Based on the cancer genome atlas(TCGA)database,the differential expression of SFTA1P in tumor and normal tissues were compared in patients diagnosed with lung squamous cell carcinoma.Then,the expression of SFTA1P was detected in human normal lung epithelial cell line BEAS-2B and lung squamous cell lines SK-MES-1 and H520 with real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction(RT-qPCR).SK-MES-1 and H520 cells with overexpression and/or knockdown of SFTA1P were constructed by transfecting the overexpression plasmids(pcDNA3.1-SFTA1P)and small interfering RNAs(si-SFTA1P-1 and si-SFTA1P-2).CCK-8 assay and Transwell assay were used to investigate the effect of SFTA1P on biological functions in lung squamous carcinoma cells.Differential gene expression analysis,correlation analysis and functional enrichment analysis were employed to explore the potential mechanism that SFTA1P may affect biological functions of lung squamous cells.Results Analysis of TCGA showed that the expression of SFTA1P was significantly lower in lung squamous cell carcinoma tissue than adjacent normal tissue(P＜0.05).RT-PCR results showed that the expression of SFTA1P was obviously lower in lung squamous carcinoma cells than the human normal lung epithelial cells(P＜0.05).And the expression level of SFTA1P was relatively lower in the SK-MES-1 cells than the H520 cells(P＜0.05).Overexpression of SFTA1P suppressed the proliferation,migration and invasion of lung squamous carcinoma cells(P＜0.05),while its knockdown promoted these abilities(P＜0.05).Differential gene expression analysis,correlation analysis and functional enrichment analysis indicated that SFTA1P may inhibit MYC,G2m checkpoints and E2f signaling pathways in lung squamous cell carcinoma.Conclusion SFTA1P shows anti-cancer function in lung squamous cell carcinoma,and it may affect the biological functions of lung squamous cell carcinoma cells through down-regulating MYC,G2m checkpoints and E2f signaling pathways.

Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the zygomaticotemporal suture (ZTS) maturation, analyze the age distribution patterns of ZTS maturation stages, and investigate the relationship between ZTS and cervical vertebral maturation (CVM). Methods: A total of 261 patients who underwent cone-beam computed tomography (112 males, mean age, 13.1 ± 3.3 years; 149 females, mean age, 13.7 ± 3.1 years) were examined to evaluate the ZTS stages. The ZTS stages were defined based on a modified method from previous studies on zygomaticomaxillary sutures. Differences between groups and correlations between indicators were analyzed using the Spearman correlation test, intraclass coefficient of correlation (ICC), one-way analysis of variance and rank sum test.Statistical significance was set at p < 0.05. The diagnostic value of CVM stages in identifying ZTS maturation stages was evaluated using positive likelihood ratios (LRs). Results: A positive relationship was found between the ZTS and CVM stage (r = 0.747, ICC = 0.621, p < 0.01) and between the ZTS stage and chronological age (r = 0.727, ICC = 0.330, p < 0.01). Positive LRs > 10 were found for several cervical stages (CSs), including CS1 and CS2 for the diagnosis of stage B, CS1 to CS3 for the diagnosis of stages B and C, and CS6 for the diagnosis of stages D and E. Conclusions The ZTS maturation stage may be more relevant to the CVM stage than to the chronological age. The CVM stages can be good indicators for clinical decisions regarding maxillary protraction, except for CS4 and CS5.

Background: Implant-supported dentures have become an essential means of restoring occlusal function after jaw reconstruction. Bone mineral density (BMD) may influence the success rate of implant denture restorations. This study aimed to explore whether the Hounsfield unit (HU) value can be used to monitor the changing trend of fibular BMD after jaw reconstruction. Results: A total of 54 patients who underwent maxillar/mandibular reconstruction with a fibula flap were included in this study. There was a significant correlation between the HU value and BMD at 1 week, 3 months, and 6 months after surgery, and both were significantly correlated with follow-up time. The difference between each pair of absorption rates (DAR) was less than 10% in 66.7% and 75.9% of patients at 3 and 6 months; however, the DAR was more than 20% in 12% and 13.8% of patients at 3 and 6 months, respectively. Conclusions There is a significant correlation between HU value and BMD. The HU value can be used to roughly reflect the fibular BMD changing trend in a group of patients as opposed to an individual, and the HU value is not equivalent to BMD.

Developmental exposure to bisphenol A (BPA), an endocrine-disrupting contaminant, impairs cognitive function in both animals and humans. However, whether BPA affects the development of primary sensory systems, which are the first to mature in the cortex, remains largely unclear. Using the rat as a model, we aimed to record the physiological and structural changes in the primary auditory cortex (A1) following lactational BPA exposure and their possible effects on behavioral outcomes. We found that BPA-exposed rats showed significant behavioral impairments when performing a sound temporal rate discrimination test. A significant alteration in spectral and temporal processing was also recorded in their A1, manifested as degraded frequency selectivity and diminished stimulus rate-following by neurons. These post-exposure effects were accompanied by changes in the density and maturity of dendritic spines in A1. Our findings demonstrated developmental impacts of BPA on auditory cortical processing and auditory-related discrimination, particularly in the temporal domain. Thus, the health implications for humans associated with early exposure to endocrine disruptors such as BPA merit more careful examination.

Objective:To explore the relationship between vegetarian diets and vitamin B 12 levels in Chinese pregnant women. Methods:A cross-sectional survey was used to explore the relationship between vegetarian diets and vitamin B 12 levels in Chinese pregnant women based on data from the Chinese National Nutrition and Health Surveillance (2015-2017). Maternal serum vitamin B 12 concentration was determined by electrochemiluminescence. Background and diet information of all subjects were collected using general and food frequency questionnaires. General Linear Model was used to analyze the difference in serum vitamin B 12 levels between vegetarian and non-vegetarian pregnant women and multivariate logistic regression for examining the relationship between vegetarian diets and vitamin B 12 deficiency (vitamin B 12<150 pmol/L) in pregnant women. Results:A total of 8 366 pregnant women were included in the analysis, and vegetarians accounted for 1.2% (102/8 366). The median serum vitamin B 12 concentrations were 155.8(93.6-212.4) pmol/L and 187.2(127.4-267.6) pmol/L ( Z=－4.22, P<0.001), and the vitamin B 12 deficiency rates were 48.0% (49/102) and 35.0% (2 896/8 264) in vegetarian and non-vegetarian women, respectively. The vitamin B 12 deficiency rate in vegetarian women was 0.89-fold higher than in non-vegetarians (95% CI: 1.24-2.89). Among the vegetarian and non-vegetarian pregnant women, vitamin B 12 deficiency rates during the first, second, and third trimesters were 34.8%(16/46), 54.3%(19/35), 66.7%(14/21), and 20.4%(521/2 559), 32.6%(941/2 886), 50.9%(1 430/2 807), noting for an increasing trend ( Z=23.54 and 2.57, P=0.010 and P<0.001). Conclusions:Vegetarian pregnant women are at high risk of vitamin B 12 deficiency. Compared with non-vegetarian women, vegetarian pregnant women in China have lower vitamin B 12 levels and a higher risk of vitamin B 12 deficiency. Moreover, the risk of vitamin B 12 deficiency will gradually increase during pregnancy.
