Objective: To investigate the seasonal fluctuations of mosquitoes in Taibai Lake area of Jining City, and evaluate the application effects of two mosquito trapping tools (Gongfu Xiaoshuai mosquito lamp and WJ-C mosquito sampler), so as to provide references for the effective surveillance, prevention and control of local mosquito vectors.

Methods: The overnight capture of mosquitoes with a man-bait net trap, Gongfu Xiaoshuai mosquito lamp, and WJ-C mosquito sampler was performed to collect mosquitoes. The species of adult mosquitoes and seasonal fluctuations were investigated and analyzed.

Results: A total of 10 914 mosquitoes belonging to 13 species, 5 genera were collected with the overnight capture of mosquitoes with the man-bait net trap, and were the dominant species, accounting for 77.41% of the total. The proportion of increased significantly. All the adult mosquitoes appeared in June, and reached the density peak in July and August. Both of the two surveillance tools showed relatively sensitive capture performance against mosquitoes. The trapping results of WJ-C mosquito sampler were basically the same as the man-bait trapping method, however, the amount of and collected by Gongfu Xiaoshuai mosquito lamp was significantly lower than that of the man-bait trapping method.

Conclusions: The mosquito species are varied in Taibai Lake area of Jining City. Therefore, monitoring should be strengthened. In addition, the two mosquito trapping tools are sensitive, but they have both advantages and disadvantages, thus we should better pay attention to the consistency of monitoring methods in use.

Objective: A lack of effective delivery methods has hampered the study of therapeutics targeting miR-875-5p for breast cancer (BC).

Methods: The miR-875-5p mimic was conjugated to AuNPs to produce AuNP-miR-875-5p. Then, the effect of AuNP-miR-875-5p on the proliferative, migratory, invasive activities, and apoptosis of BC cells was detected, as well as on tumor growth in animals.

The relationship between childhood hunger experiences and activities of daily living disability: a mediating role of depression.

BMC Public Health

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates how childhood hunger experiences (CHEs) affect daily living disabilities and finds that they significantly increase both basic and instrumental daily living activities (ADL) disabilities.
  • Depression plays a mediating role in this relationship, suggesting that those who experienced hunger in childhood are more likely to suffer from depression, which in turn contributes to an increase in ADL disability.
  • The findings highlight the importance of addressing both mental and physical health impacts of childhood hunger to prevent future disability.

Article Synopsis
  • - This study investigates how different reduction conditions affect the mechanical stability of OTA/AO 31A1.3 intertrochanteric fractures using artificial femur models.
  • - Twenty models were tested under five reduction states (positive support, neutral support, negative support, varus fixation, and valgus fixation), revealing significant differences in subsidence displacement and axial stiffness among these groups.
  • - The findings indicate that positive support offers the best mechanical stability for these fractures, suggesting it should be the preferred surgical approach, while varus fixation should be avoided for better stability outcomes.
