Objective:To study the relationship between emergency department visits for unintentional injuries and air pollutants in four cities in Shandong Province, China (2019-2022). Methods:From 2019 to 2022, the data on air pollutants and unintentional injury emergency department visits were extracted from four cities in Shandong Province (Dezhou, Jinan, Zibo, and Heze). We used the dynamic factor model (DFM) to determine the trend of emergency visits and the distributed lag nonlinear model (DLNM) to analyze the lag effect of air pollutants on these visits. We also conducted a meta-analysis to summarize the impact estimates of air pollutants on emergency visits. Results:The dynamic factor model showed that from 2019 to 2022, the number of emergency visits for unintentional injuries in the four cities in Shandong Province was cyclical, with the highest number of emergency visits in summer every year. PM2.5, PM10, CO, SO2, NO2, and O3 exhibited single-day lag effects on emergency visits for unintentional injuries, with the highest risk observed at Lag4, Lag5, Lag4, Lag3, Lag1, and Lag3, respectively. The corresponding relative risks (RRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were 1.014(1.007, 1.021), 1.015(1.006, 1.023), 1.085(1.038, 1.134), 1.036(1.013, 1.060), 1.121(1.069, 1.175), and 1.084(1.052, 1.116). Additionally, PM2.5, PM10, CO, SO2, NO2, and O3 demonstrated cumulative lag effects, with the highest risk observed at Lag07, Lag07, Lag06, Lag05, Lag06, and Lag05, respectively. The RRs (95% CIs) were 1.058(1.033, 1.083), 1.037(1.003, 1.072), 1.468(1.244, 1.733), 1.099(1.039, 1.161), 1.221(1.097, 1.359), and 1.227(1.138, 1.323). Conclusion:Emergency visits for unintentional injuries in the four cities exhibited an annual cyclical pattern, with the peak occurring in summer. Exposure to high concentrations of air pollutants increased the risk of unintentional injuries, with distinct effects observed across different pollutants, each exhibiting specific single-day and cumulative lag effects.
Platelets are an able regulator of CD4+ T cell immunity. Herein, the mechanisms underlying platelet-regulated effector responses of naïve CD4+ T (Tn) cells were investigated. Platelet–Tn cell co-cultures of human cells, genetically modified murine models, and high-throughput bioinformatic analyses were combined to elucidate molecular mechanisms of platelet-dependent regulation. Platelets exerted sophisticated regulation on effector responses of type 1, 2, and 17 T helper (Th1/Th2/Th17) and regulatory T (Treg) cells, in time-, concentration-, and organ-dependent manners and with close cooperation of transforming growth factor β (TGFβ) and platelet factor 4 (PF4). PF4 at low concentrations reinforced TGFβ signaling by heteromerizing with type III TGFβ receptor (TGFBRIII), and subsequently enhanced TGFBRII expression and TGFβ signaling. High-concentration PF4 had, however, opposite effects by directly binding to TGFBRII, blocking TGFβ–TGFBRII ligation, and thus inhibiting TGFβ signaling. Furthermore, platelet depletion markedly hampered Treg and Th17 responses in the spleen but not in the lymph nodes, blockade of platelet–Tn cell contact diminished platelet effects, while spleen injection of PF4-immobilized microparticles in PF4-deficient mice mimicked platelet effects, suggesting the importance of direct platelet–Tn contact and platelet-bound PF4 for the optimal regulatory effects by platelets. Platelets exert context-dependent regulations on effector responses of Tn cells via PF4-TGFβ duet, suggesting new possibilities of platelet-targeted interventions of T cell immunity.

Abstract Background The effects of extreme temperature on infectious diseases are complex and far-reaching. There are few studies to access the relationship of pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) with extreme temperature. The study aimed to identify whether there was association between extreme temperature and the reported morbidity of PTB in Shandong Province, China, from 2005 to 2016. Methods A generalized additive model (GAM) was firstly conducted to evaluate the relationship between daily reported incidence rate of PTB and extreme temperature events in the prefecture-level cities. Then, the effect estimates were pooled using meta-analysis at the provincial level. The fixed-effect model or random-effect model was selected based on the result of heterogeneity test. Results Among the 446,016 PTB reported cases, the majority of reported cases occurred in spring. The higher reported incidence rate areas were located in Liaocheng, Taian, Linyi and Heze. Extreme low temperature had an impact on the reported incidence of PTB in only one prefecture-level city, i.e., Binzhou (RR = 0.903, 95% CI: 0.817–0.999). While, extreme high temperature was found to have a positive effect on reported morbidity of PTB in Binzhou (RR = 0.924, 95% CI: 0.856–0.997) and Weihai (RR = 0.910, 95% CI: 0.843–0.982). Meta-analysis showed that extreme high temperature was associated with a decreased risk of PTB (RR = 0.982, 95% CI: 0.966–0.998). However, extreme low temperature was no relationship with the reported incidence of PTB. Conclusion Our findings are suggested that extreme high temperature has significantly decreased the risk of PTB at the provincial levels. The findings have implications for developing strategies to response to climate change.
Background: Little comprehensive information on overall epidemic trend of respiratory infectious diseases is available in Shandong Province, China. This study aimed to determine the spatiotemporal distribution and epidemic characteristics of respiratory infectious diseases. Methods: Time series was firstly performed to describe the temporal distribution feature of respiratory infectious diseases during 2005-2014 in Shandong Province. GIS Natural Breaks (Jenks) was applied to divide the average annual incidence of respiratory infectious diseases into five grades. Spatial empirical Bayesian smoothed risk maps and excess risk maps were further used to investigate spatial patterns of respiratory infectious diseases. Global and local Moran’s I statistics were used to measure the spatial autocorrelation. Spatial-temporal scanning was used to detect spatiotemporal clusters and identify high-risk locations. Results: A total of 537,506 cases of respiratory infectious diseases were reported in Shandong province during 2005-2014. The morbidity of respiratory infectious diseases had obvious seasonality with high morbidity in winter and spring. Local Moran’s I analysis showed that there were 5, 23, 24, 4, 20, 8, 14, 10 and 7 high-risk counties determined for influenza A (H1N1), measles, tuberculosis, meningococcal meningitis, pertussis, scarlet fever, influenza, mumps and rubella, respectively. The spatial-temporal clustering analysis determined that the most likely cluster of influenza A (H1N1), measles, tuberculosis, meningococcal meningitis, pertussis, scarlet fever, influenza, mumps and rubella included 74, 66, 58, 56, 22, 64, 2, 75 and 56 counties, and the time frame was November 2009, March 2008, January 2007, February 2005, July 2007, December 2011, November 2009, June 2012 and May 2005, respectively. Conclusions: There were obvious spatiotemporal clusters of respiratory infectious diseases in Shandong during 2005–2014. More attention should be paid to the epidemiological and spatiotemporal characteristics of respiratory infectious diseases to establish new strategies for its control.

This study aimed to examine the association between floods and the morbidity of acute hemorrhagic conjunctivitis (AHC) in Mengshan, China. Relying on the longitudinal data, a generalized additive model (GAM) was applied to quantify the relationship between the morbidity of AHC and floods from 2005 to 2012, controlling for other meteorological variables. Years lived with disability (YLDs) and attributable YLDs were used as the measure of the burden of AHC because of the floods. Multivariable analysis showed that floods were significantly associated with an increased risk of the morbidity of AHC (rate ratio [RR] = 2.136, 95% CI: 2.109-2.163). The total YLDs per 1,000 in Mengshan was 0.2001, although the value in females was higher than that in males (0.2351 versus 0.1686). The YLD per 1,000 of AHC in Mengshan was highest between the ages of 5 and 14 years (0.6530), followed by the age of 0-4 years (0.3325). The attributable YLD per 1,000 of AHC due to the floods in Mengshan was 0.0434 (95% CI: 0.0425-0.0442). Our study confirms that floods have significantly increased the risks of AHC in the selected study area. Females and youngsters may be the vulnerable populations to develop the flood-related disease.

Background: Given that more frequent and intensive extreme heat events have been projected based on climate change modeling, it is of significance to have a better understanding of the association between heat waves and mental illnesses. This study aimed to explore the effects of heat waves on daily hospital visits for mental illness in the summer of 2010 in Jinan, China. Methods: A symmetric bidirectional case-crossover study was firstly conducted to determine the relationship between daily hospital visits for mental illness and heat waves in Jinan in 2010. Multifactor logistic regression analysis was then used to analyze the influencing factors for daily hospital visits for mental illness during the heat wave periods. Results: Multivariable analysis showed that the heat wave events were associated with an increased risk of mental illness. The largest odds ratios (ORs) of the heat waves for daily hospital visits for mental illness were 2.231 (95% confidence interval (CI): 1.436–3.466) at a 3-day lag, 2.836 (95% CI: 1.776–4.525) at a 2-day lag, 3.178 (95% CI: 1.995–5.064) at a 3-day lag, and 2.988 (95% CI: 2.158–4.140) at a 2-day lag for the first, second, third, and fourth heat waves, respectively. The elderly, urban residents, outdoor workers, and singles may be high-risk populations for developing heat wave-related mental illness. Conclusions: Our study has supported that there is a positive association between heat waves and hospital visits for mental illness in the study site. Age, home address, occupation, and marital status were associated with daily hospital visits for mental illness during the heat wave periods.
BACKGROUND:Flood-related damage can be very severe and include health effects. Among those health impacts, infectious diseases still represent a significant public health problem in China. However, there have been few studies on the identification of the spectrum of infectious diseases associated with floods in one area. This study aimed to quantitatively identify sensitive infectious diseases associated with floods in Guangxi, China. METHODS:A time-trend ecological design was conducted. A descriptive analysis was first performed to exclude infectious diseases with low incidence from 2005 to 2012 in ten study sites of Guangxi. The Wilcoxon rank-sum test was applied to examine the difference in the ten-day attack rate of infectious diseases between the exposure and control periods with different lagged effects. Negative binomial, zero-inflated Poisson and zero-inflated negative binomial models were used to examine the relationship and odd ratios (ORs) of the risk of floods on infectious diseases of preliminary screening. RESULTS:A total of 417,271 infectious diseases were notified. There were 11 infectious diseases associated with floods in the preliminary screening process for flood-sensitive infectious diseases. The strongest effect was shown with a 0-9 ten-day lag in different infectious diseases. Multivariate analysis showed that floods were significantly associated with an increased the risk of bacillary dysentery (odds ratio (OR) = 1.268, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.072-1.500), acute haemorrhagic conjunctivitis (AHC, OR = 3.230, 95% CI: 1.976-5.280), influenza A (H1N1) (OR = 1.808, 95% CI: 1.721-1.901), tuberculosis (OR = 1.200, 95% CI: 1.036-1.391), influenza (OR = 2.614, 95% CI: 1.476-4.629), Japanese encephalitis (OR = 2.334, 95% CI: 1.119-4.865), and leptospirosis (OR = 1.138, 95% CI: 1.075-1.205), respectively. CONCLUSION:The spectrum of infectious diseases which are associated with floods are bacillary dysentery, AHC, influenza A (H1N1), tuberculosis, influenza, Japanese encephalitis and leptospirosis in Guangxi. Floods can result in differently increased risk of these diseases, and public health action should be taken to control a potential risk of these diseases after floods.
Primary immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) is a serious medical disorder that has the potential for maternal and fetal mortality. Corticosteroids, intravenous immunoglobulin, or both are the first-line treatments for ITP in pregnancy, but choices are limited if patients fail to respond. Recombinant human thrombopoietin (rhTPO) has been proved effective and safe in management of chronic ITP. However, the efficacy and safety of rhTPO for pregnant ITP patients still need to be explored. Here we developed an ideal murine model that simulated human ITP in pregnancy and evaluated the efficacy and safety of rhTPO in management of ITP in pregnancy. Model mice were subcutaneously administered with 0, 150, 1,500 and 15,000 U/kg rhTPO for 14 days. Significant higher platelet counts were noted in rhTPO-treated groups on Day 7, 10 and 14. On Day 20, half the maternal mice were sacrificed. Frequencies of Tregs in CD4+ T cells in rhTPO-treated groups were statistically higher than control. Significant higher plasma levels of TGF-β1 were observed in rhTPO-treated groups than control. There was no significant abnormality in gross or visceral examination of fetuses. The remaining half maternal mice and their pups were observed for at least three weeks to assess vital signs. No abnormal signs were noted. Furthermore, we investigated the underlying mechanisms. Results showed that Tregs were negative for c-Mpl and rhTPO had no direct effect on Tregs. Additionally, the Treg frequency in splenic CD4+ T cells in LY2109761-treated model mice was statistically lower than control. Thus, rhTPO may be a safe and effective option for treatment of pregnant ITP patients.

Caffeic acid is an antioxidant commonly used to promote hematopoiesis and hemostasis. However, little is known about its systemic safety profile in reproduction and development. Here, we focused on the reproductive and developmental toxicity of caffeic acid in F0 female mice and F1 offspring. In the three-segment study, the F0 female mice were continuously exposed to 0, 0.15, 5 or 150 mg/kg/day of caffeic acid by gavage. We found that 5 mg/kg/day and 150 mg/kg/day of caffeic acid affected implantation of embryos when administered before gestation day 6. In addition, 150 mg/kg/day of caffeic acid affected fetal weight gain. No maternal toxicity, fetal teratogenesis or post-natal effects on pup development were observed. The no-observed-adverse-effect-level was 0.15 mg/kg/day for pregnant mice under the conditions of this study.
BACKGROUND:Understanding the potential links between floods and infectious diarrhea is important under the context of climate change. However, little is known about the risk of infectious diarrhea after floods and what factors could modify these effects in China. OBJECTIVES:This study aims to quantitatively examine the relationship between floods and infectious diarrhea and their effect modifiers. METHODS:Weekly number of infectious diarrhea cases from 2004 to 2011 during flood season in Hunan province were supplied by the National Notifiable Disease Surveillance System. Flood and meteorological data over the same period were obtained. A two-stage model was used to estimate a provincial average association and their effect modifiers between floods and infectious diarrhea, accounting for other confounders. RESULTS:A total of 134,571 cases of infectious diarrhea were notified from 2004 to 2011. After controlling for seasonality, long-term trends, and meteorological factors, floods were significantly associated with infectious diarrhea in the provincial level with a cumulative RR of 1.22 (95% CI: 1.05, 1.43) with a lagged effect of 0-1 week. Geographic locations and economic levels were identified as effect modifiers, with a higher impact of floods on infectious diarrhea in the western and regions with a low economic level of Hunan. CONCLUSIONS:Our study provides strong evidence of a positive association between floods and infectious diarrhea in the study area. Local control strategies for public health should be taken in time to prevent and reduce the risk of infectious diarrhea after floods, especially for the vulnerable regions identified.
Many researchers have been studying the influence of floods on intestinal infection in recent years. This study aimed to project the future disease burden of bacillary dysentery associated with floods in Guangxi, China. Relying on the longitudinal data, a generalized additive mixed model was applied to quantify the relationship between the monthly morbidity of bacillary dysentery and floods with two severity levels from 2004 to 2010, controlling for other meteorological variables. Years Lived with Disability (YLDs) was used as the measure of the burden of bacillary dysentery in the future of Guangxi, China. According to the generalized additive mixed model, the relative risks (RR) of moderate and severe floods on the morbidity of bacillary dysentery were 1.17 (95% CI: 1.03-1.33) and 1.39 (95% CI: 1.14-1.70), respectively. The regression analysis also indicated that the flood duration was negatively associated with the morbidity of bacillary dysentery (with RR: 0.63, 95% CI: 0.44-0.90). Considering the effects of floods only, compared with the YLDs in 2010, increasing flood events may lead to a 4.0% increase in the YLDs for bacillary dysentery by 2020, 2100, 0.0% by 2050, and an 8.0% increase by 2030 in Guangxi, if other factors remain constant. Considering all potential changes include floods, temperature and population size, the YLDs for bacillary dysentery may increase by up to 16.0% by 2020, 20.0% by 2030, 2050, and 0.0% by 2100, compared to that in 2010 under the moderate flood scenario; Under the severe flood scenario, the YLDs for bacillary dysentery may increase by up to 16.0% by 2020, 20.0% by 2030, 2050, and 4.0% by 2100.
