    The Global Burden of Disease Study 2021 (GBD 2021) analyzed 371 diseases and injuries using 100,983 data sources, estimating years lived with disability, years of life lost, disability-adjusted life years, and healthy life expectancy. From 1990 to 2019, the annual rate of change in global all-cause mortality ranged from -0.9% to 2.4%, while deaths increased by 10.8% and 7.5% in 2020 and 2021 respectively due to COVID-19. In 2021, COVID-19 was the second lea-ding cause of death globally, with a mortality rate of 94.0 per 100 000. The mortality rates of other major causes, such as ischemic heart disease and stroke were 108.7 and 87.4 per 100 000, respectively. Global life expectancy rose from 65.5 years in 1990 to 73.3 years in 2019 but dropped to 71.7 years in 2021 due to COVID-19, which reduced life expectancy by 2.2 years, significantly impacting the trend of health improvement. In China, GBD 2021 data shows a significant increase in life expectancy from 1990 to 2021: from 69.9 to 80.7 years for women and from 65.7 to 74.9 years for men. However, non-communicable diseases such as cardiovascular diseases, cancers, and chronic respiratory diseases remain major health threats. In 2021, these diseases had the highest burden among the top ten causes in China, with rising incidence and morta-lity rates. Major health risk factors in China include tobacco, hypertension, and dietary risks. This paper, through the systematic analysis of GBD 2021 data, reveals current trends in disease burden globally and in China, and proposes public health strategy recommendations. China should enhance chronic disease management, improve public health emergency responses, address health inequalities, and promote basic research and international cooperation to improve overall health levels.

    Summary and interpretation of the World Health Organization “Global Report on Hypertension”
    ZHANG Dongyan, LI Yan
    Journal of Diagnostics Concepts & Practice    2024, 23 (03): 297-304.   DOI: 10.16150/j.1671-2870.2024.03.007

    In 2023, the World Health Organization (WHO) released the first document of “Global report on hypertension—The race against a silent killer”. which covers the global prevalence and management of hypertension, analyzes the mortality and disease burden caused by hypertension, explores the risk factors for hypertension, evaluates the cost-effectiveness of blood pressure treatment, and presents successful examples of hypertension management in many countries, especially the global implementation of the WHO-launched HEARTS project for hypertension control. Hypertension is a significant global public health challenge with severe health implications. Over the past 30 years, the number of people with hypertension (defined as systolic blood pressure ≥140 mmHg or diastolic blood pressure ≥90 mmHg, or taking antihypertensive medication) has doubled, rising from 650 million in 1990 to 1.3 billion in 2019. Among the global hypertensive population aged 30-79, approximately 54% have been diagnosed, of which 42% are receiving antihypertensive treatment, and only 21% have controlled blood pressure. In 2019, elevated systolic pressure was responsible for over half of cardiovascular disease deaths globally. Increasing the global hypertension control rate to 50% could prevent 76 million deaths from 2023 to 2050. Population-level risk factors for hypertension include high salt and low potassium intake, alcohol consumption, physical inactivity, and air pollution. WHO advocates for the prevention and control of hypertension through measures such as reducing dietary sodium intake, increasing potassium intake, limiting alcohol consumption, quitting smoking, increasing physical activity, and improving air quality. In terms of treatment, WHO guidelines recommend antihypertensive medication for individuals with systolic blood pressure ≥140 mmHg or diastolic blood pressure ≥90 mmHg. For specific populations, it is also recommended to start antihypertensive treatment when systolic blood pressure is between 130-139 mmHg. The use of single-pill combination therapy is also advised to improve adherence and persistence in treatment. The prevalence and management of hypertension in China are also noteworthy. Hypertension is a major cause of mortality and disease burden in the Chinese population. By learning from global successes in hypertension management, China can enhance its efforts in the prevention, control, and monitoring of hypertension, particularly by promoting the application of the HEARTS technical package to improve hypertension management. This report aims to draw attention to major non-communicable diseases, particularly hypertension, as a public health challenge. Through detailed data analysis and successful case studies, the report underscores the importance of hypertension prevention and control, providing scientific evidence for policy-making across countries. This collective effort aims to achieve the global goal of a 25% relative reduction in uncontrolled hypertension prevalence by 2025 compared to 2010. This article will interpret briefly the reports based on the prevalence and management of hypertension in China.

    MDS Professional Committee of Hematology Branch of Chinese Geriatrics Society
    Journal of Diagnostics Concepts & Practice    2024, 23 (03): 285-296.   DOI: 10.16150/j.1671-2870.2024.03.006

    Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) are a heterogeneous group of myeloid tumours originating from haematopoietic stem/progenitor cells, with a high prevalence in the elderly. Epidemiological surveys in Europe and the United States have revealed that the incidence of MDS is (4-5)/100 000, which increases with age,and the median age at diagnosis of MDS patients reaches 73-76 years. In Shanghai, China, according to the World Health Organization (WHO) 2008 diagnostic criteria, the average incidence rate was 1.51/100 000, and the median age of onset of MDS was found to be 62 years old in a survey conducted in 3.9 million people from 2004 to 2007, of which about one-third of the patients would be transformed into acute myeloid leukemia (AML), and 53% of the patients would die due to infections, haemorrhages, or comorbidities triggered by cytopenias. Elderly MDS patients have their own characteristics in terms of both treatment choices and disease prognosis due to more comorbidities and weaker health. Clinical characteristics of elderly MDS patients include slightly higher white blood cell count, haemoglobin level and more bone marrow blasts than those of young patients, while neutrophil count and platelet count are significantly higher than those of young patients; the number of mutations in elderly MDS patients is higher, with an average of 1.8 mutations per patient, among which the mutations in ASXL1, TET2, SF3B1, STAG2, SRSF2 and TP53 are more common; while the number of mutations in younger patients averages 1.2 per person, among which U2AF1, ASXL1 and RUNX1 mutations are more common. Allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) is the only curative treatment for MDS, and myeloablative transplantation is feasible in young patients, but only reduced-intensity conditioning (RIC) allo-HSCT can be performed in elderly patients.The natural course and prognosis of elderly MDS patients varies considerably, and the MDS Composite Prognostic Score, which is composed of the composite age (>70 years old), vulnerability index, and IPSS prognostic subgroups, is able to better predict the tolerance of chemotherapy and adverse treatment effects in MDS patients. This consensus is based on the latest evidence-based data in the study of MDS in the elderly at home and abroad, and has been discussed by the experts of the group, which aims to standardise the diagnosis and the whole management of treatment for elderly MDS patients in China.

    As one of the most promising carbon capture technologies for coal-fired power plants, oxy-fuel combustion provides a new solution for improving the flexibility of the integrated energy system (IES) and reducing carbon emissions. In this paper, a two-stage optimal dispatch strategy for the integrated energy system with oxy-fuel combustion units considering the constraints of multi-energy flexibility is proposed based on the intergration of oxy-fuel combustion technology and the optimal operation of the integrated energy system. First, a model of integrated energy system with oxy-fuel combustion (Oxy-IES) is established. Then, a matrix model of multi-energy flexibility constraints for Oxy-IES is proposed to reveal the supply and demand relationship of flexibility within the system. Finally, a two-stage optimization dispatch strategy for Oxy-IES is constructed, in which the output of each unit is optimized to minimize the daily operating cost of carbon trading in the day-ahead stage, while the rapid variable load capacity of the oxy-fuel combustion unit improves the flexibility of the system in the intraday stage. The simulation results of Oxy-IES show that the proposed strategy can improve the flexibility and economy performance of the IES while reducing carbon emissions.

    Interpretation of Chinese Guidelines for the Prevention and Management of Bronchial Asthma (2024 Edition)
    ZHOU Yan, ZHANG Min
    Journal of Diagnostics Concepts & Practice    2025, 24 (04): 415-422.   DOI: 10.16150/j.1671-2870.2025.04.008

    According to the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) data for 2021, the global age-standardized prevalence of asthma is 3 340.1/100 000, with a total of about 260 million patients, a mortality rate of 5.2/100 000, and 436 000 deaths. A 2012-2015 survey conducted in China shows that the prevalence of wheezing-related asthma among people aged 20 and above is 4.2%, with a total of about 45.7 million patients. However, the diagnosis rate is only 28.8%, and the control rate is only 28.5%, far below the international level, highlighting the urgent need for better asthma management and intervention. In March 2024, the Chinese Thoracic Society (CTS) released the Guidelines for the Prevention and Management of Bronchial Asthma (2024 Edition) (hereinafter referred to as the "2024 Guidelines"). For diagnostic pathways, the 2024 Guidelines improve the diagnostic criteria for asthma, emphasizing the evidence for variable expiratory airflow (such as bronchodilator tests, provocation tests, etc.). A "presumptive diagnosis pathway" is proposed for primary care and resource-limited medical institutions to improve the diagnosis rate and avoid overtreatment. In terms of staging and classification, the concept of "clinical remission" is introduced, defined as being asymptomatic for ≥1 year without the need for systemic glucocorticoid therapy. The classification of "intermittent state" is eliminated, and asthma severity is now simplified into three levels—mild, moderate and severe—with a dynamic assessment model proposed. The assessment system newly includes a type 2 inflammatory phenotype assessment, recommending the measurement of biomarkers such as peripheral blood eosinophil count (EOS) and fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) to guide individualized treatment, while also emphasizing comorbidity screening and risk factor assessment. In terms of treatment strategies, a stepwise management approach is used for chronic persistent treatment, with inhaled corticosteroid (ICS)-formoterol recommended as the preferred reliever (Pathway 1) to reduce the risk of acute exacerbations. The management of severe asthma emphasizes the use of biological targeted drugs, such as anti-IgE and anti-interleukin (IL)-5 monoclonal antibodies, while the treatment of acute exacerbations is recommended based on the severity level. Despite the significant progress made in the 2024 Guidelines, challenges remain. Epidemiological data on asthma in China are outdated, highlighting the urgent need for nationwide surveys to reflect the latest disease burden. Diagnosis rates in primary care are low, and inflammation assessment and dynamic mana-gement are insufficient, requiring strengthened capacity building at the primary care level. Real-world data on biologics in China are limited, restricting their application in precision therapy. The application of information technology in asthma management is still at an exploratory stage, and technologies like 5G should be leveraged to enhance patient education and follow-up efficiency. In the future, asthma prevention and treatment in China need to further optimize strategies for early diagnosis and early treatment, dynamically identify inflammatory phenotypes, establish drug response prediction models, and promote AI-assisted diagnosis and treatment to achieve more precise management.

    Renewable Energy Consumption Strategies of Power System Integrated with Electric Vehicle Clusters Based on Load Alignment and Deep Reinforcement Learning
    LIU Yanhang, QIAO Ruyu, LIANG Nan, CHEN Yu, YU Kai, WU Hanxiao
    Journal of Shanghai Jiao Tong University    2025, 59 (10): 1464-1475.   DOI: 10.16183/j.cnki.jsjtu.2023.529

    As China accelerates the construction of power systems with renewable energy as the mainstay, the large-scale integration of renewables has led to prominent issues such as wind and light curtailment. To improve the utilization of new energy consumption in power systems, this paper proposes a novel renewable energy consumption method based on load alignment and deep reinforcement learning. First, it proposes a node load line formation model based on linearized power flow calculations, which can guide adjustable loads to shift the electricity consumption period, thereby promoting the improvement of new energy consumption. Unlike the direct current (DC) power flow model, the proposed alternating current (AC) model accounts for voltage constraints and other related constraints of the power system. Compared with other AC power flow models, this model linearizes all nonlinear constraints and has lower computational costs. Then, this paper constructs a market framework for load alignment mechanism. The framework involves three main entities: independent system operators, regional power grid sellers, and electric vehicle adjustable load aggregators. It also explores the solution for load alignment incentive prices using electric vehicle clusters as adjustable loads. As the solution of the load benchmark incentive price involves a master-slave game between three entities, conventional mathematical analysis methods face high complexity. Therefore, it employs deep reinforcement learning algorithm to solve the problem. The deep reinforcement learning algorithm takes the marginal electricity price of each node as state space, the load benchmark incentive price as action space, and the cost of regional power grid sellers as feedback. The agent can find the load line incentive price that maximizes the benefits of regional power grid sellers after continuous training. Finally, the example analysis shows that the load alignment mechanism not only effectively promotes the improvement of new energy consumption level, but also enhances the interests of independent system operators, regional power grid sellers, and electric vehicle aggregators. The results further confirm that the deep reinforcement learning algorithm maximizes the benefits of regional power grid sellers.

    The electric power industry plays a pivotal role in carbon emission control. Accurate and real-time accounting of carbon emissions in the power industry is essential for supporting the carbon reduction of the power industry. At present, the measurement of carbon emissions in the power industry relies mainly on direct measurement or the accounting methods, which often struggles to balance low measurement costs with real-time accuracy. Therefore, in this paper, the robust power data infrastructure in the power industry is leveraged and the correlation between electricity consumption and carbon emissions is explored to propose a short-term electricity-to-carbon method using machine learning methods based on historical data of electricity. This method utilizes convolutional neural networks (CNNs) for feature extraction, and light gradient boosting machine (LightGBM) for carbon emission estimation based on extracted features. Moreover, K-fold cross-validation is used in model training, with parameter optimization using grid search to enhance the generalization capability and robustness of the model. To validate the proposed method, it is compared with other machine learning models under the same data segmentation condition for daily and hourly data sets. The results indicate that the proposed model outperforms other models in both performance evaluation and the consistency between estimated and target values.

    In February 2024, the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) released the 2022 Global Cancer Statistics Report. In 2022, there were nearly 20 million new cancer cases and 9.7 million deaths. The report provides statistics on the incidence and mortality of 36 different types of cancer in 185 countries around the world, analyzing geographic, gender-based, and Human Development Index (HDI)-related differences. It also predicts the global burden of cancer disease by 2050. Demographic forecasts suggest that by 2050, the number of new cancer cases worldwide is expected to reach 35 million annually-an increase of 77% compared to 2022. Geographically, cancer incidence and mortality rates show significant regional disparities. In 2022, nearly half (49.2%) of the world's new cases and the majority (56.1%) of cancer deaths occurred in Asia. In terms of gender distribution, the overall cancer incidence and mortality rate among females were lower than those among males in 2022. With respect to HDI, the risk of developing cancer increases with higher HDI levels. In 2022, the top 5 newly diagnosed cancer cases worldwide are lung cancer, female breast cancer cancer, colorectal cancer, prostate cancer, gastric cancer in turn. There were nearly 2.5 million new lung cancer cases and over 1.8 million related deaths. Breast cancer in women accounted for 2.3 million new cases and nearly 670 000 deaths. Colorectal cancer, including anal cancer, had more than 1.9 million new cases and over 900 000 deaths. Prostate cancer recorded 1.5 million new cases and nearly 400 000 deaths. There were nearly 970 000 newly-diagnosed cases of gastric cancer and 660 000 related deaths. In China in 2022, lung cancer still ranks first in the cancer incidence spectrum in China, accounting for 22.0% of the total new cases of cancer in China. This proportion has further increased compared to 2018 data (17.9%), followed by colorectal cancer (10.7%), thyroid cancer (9.7%), liver cancer (7.6%), and gastric cancer (7.4%), which account for more than half of the total new cases in China (57.4%). This paper reviews the data sources and statistical methods used in the report, interprets the epidemiological trends of major cancer types, and analyzes the incidence and burden of major cancers prevalent in China, provi-ding an overview of their disease burden and epidemiological trends.

    Skin typing is a common method for describing skin characteristics. Traditional skin typing methods (such as
    the Fitzpatrick Skin Phototype and Baumann Skin Typing) have their own advantages and disadvantages. However, the above
    skin typing methods rely on subjective judgement, lacking quantitative analysis of skin objective parameters. In recent years,
    the measurement technology of objective parameters such as sebum secretion and transepidermal water loss has made great
    progress, making it possible to describe skin types with objective parameters. Additionally, image recognition technology
    based on facial photos can extract facial skin features and provide a basis for skin typing. This article reviewed subjective skin
    typing methods, skin objective parameter detection, and skin analysis technology based on image recognition, and discussed
    the development process of skin typing from qualitative-quantitative-visualization, in order to provide a theoretical basis for
    objective and precise skin typing in the future.

    Currently, research in translation history has seen a shift from traditional “a view from above” methods to “a view from below” microhistorical perspective. Translation history research integrates both history and translation without bias or neglect to either. The Macartney Mission’s visit to China in 1792, marking the first official communication between Chinese and British officials, had profound and far-reaching impacts. Yet, the significant role of translation in this event and the communication issues it presented are little known and deserve recognition. Dialogue between the Dragon and the Lion meticulously unravels the visit from a translation history perspective, drawing on a wealth of precious archives and new materials, showcasing the importance of translation in modern Chinese diplomatic activities. The book is rich in data and rigorous in argumentation, offering new insights into many aspects of the Mission and filling existing research gaps. It not only re-examines and reconstructs the historical memory of the Mission but also represents an innovative integration in translation history research. Breaking disciplinary barriers in terms of source material utilization, research perspectives, and methodologies, the book reflects and integrates with each other, providing significant references and models for modern Chinese translation history and Sino-British diplomatic history research. It offers insights and elucidations that are conducive to advancing the depth of research in Chinese translation history.

    This paper adopts the methods of combining critical discourse analysis with corpus linguistics, quantitative and qualitative comparison between local textbooks and global textbooks, discusses cultural representation in College English textbooks, and analyzes its impact on cultural representation from the perspective of register type and language characteristics, so as to clarify the differences in structural features and social attributes of language textbooks under different social and cultural backgrounds and guiding ideology. The results show that the local materials reflect the relational thinking of Chinese philosophical thought in terms of subject matter and help to construct foreign language learners’ identities by bringing them closer to learners through dialogical genres and micro-level linguistic features, thereby recontextualizing the language materials in the local materials. On the other hand, local textbooks can be further expanded in terms of subject matter, knowledge, and international perspectives, and they also need to work on how to build China’s image and tell China’s story at the level of national consciousness. This study has implications for the writing, evaluation, and adaptation of foreign language textbooks in the new era.

    Silicon (Si) has emerged as a potent anode material for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs), but faces challenges like low electrical conductivity and significant volume changes during lithiation/delithiation, leading to material pulverization and capacity degradation. Recent research on nanostructured Si aims to mitigate volume expansion and enhance electrochemical performance, yet still grapples with issues like pulverization, unstable solid electrolyte interface (SEI) growth, and interparticle resistance. This review delves into innovative strategies for optimizing Si anodes’ electrochemical performance via structural engineering, focusing on the synthesis of Si/C composites, engineering multidimensional nanostructures, and applying non-carbonaceous coatings. Forming a stable SEI is vital to prevent electrolyte decomposition and enhance Li+ transport, thereby stabilizing the Si anode interface and boosting cycling Coulombic efficiency. We also examine groundbreaking advancements such as self-healing polymers and advanced prelithiation methods to improve initial Coulombic efficiency and combat capacity loss. Our review uniquely provides a detailed examination of these strategies in real-world applications, moving beyond theoretical discussions. It offers a critical analysis of these approaches in terms of performance enhancement, scalability, and commercial feasibility. In conclusion, this review presents a comprehensive view and a forward-looking perspective on designing robust, high-performance Si-based anodes the next generation of LIBs.

    Investigation and punishment of vehicle parking violations is important in urban traffic management. Considering the time-consuming and labor-intensive nature of manual law enforcement, as well as the limited scope of fixed camera monitoring and detecting, exploring more flexible and efficient automatic detection methods has a great practical significance. Thus, a cruise detection technology is proposed, which is suitable for mobile carriers requiring no stopping and can be completed in a single pass. First, a vehicle parking violation image dataset named XMUT-VPI is collected and constructed under the conditions of approximate horizontal views and random shooting angles, laying a data foundation for the research. Then, a multitask parking network (MTPN) is constructed as an encoder to extract the key element information required for stop violation judgment. With the aid of the self-designed deformable large kernel feature aggregation module (DLKA-C2f) and cross-task interaction attention mechanism (CTIAM), a highest average detection accuracy of 90.3%, a minimum average positioning error of 4.4%, and a suboptimal average segmentation intersection ratio accuracy of 78.5% are achieved. Finally, an efficient decoder is designed to further extract the skeleton features of the parking space line and fit the visible area of the main parking space, which helps match the target vehicle and analyzes the positional condition between its tire ground-touching points and the main parking space. In addition, a judgment principle is provided for three typical behaviors of illegal parking, improper parking, and standardized parking. Experimental results show that the algorithm attains a comprehensive accuracy rate of 98.1% for vehicle parking violation detections across diverse complex interference scenarios, which outperforms existing mainstream methods and can provide technical supports for fully automate road cruise management of parking violatic.

    In 2023, multiple important discoveries and breakthroughs have been made in the field of small intestine diseases, and database-based global epidemiological study on small intestinal cancer was first released. It showed that the global incidence rate of small intestinal cancer in 2020 was 0.6/100 000, which was on an upward trend compared with the average incidence rate from 2010 to 2020 (average annual change percentage in different continents, 2.20% to 21.67%). The burden of small intestinal cancer was geographic disparity, and age-standardized incidence rate (1.4/100 000) was highest in North America. The incidence rate of small intestinal cancer in China was 0.32/100 000 for men and 1.95/100 000 for women. Risk factors for small bowel cancer (β = 0.008 to 0.198; OR = 1.07 to 10.01) included higher human development index and gross domestic product; smoking and drinking habits; lack of exercise, obesity, diabetes, and lipid metabolism disorders; history of inflammatory bowel diseases. Therapeutically, the combined use of sulindac and erlotinib has been effective in reducing the polyp burden in patients with familial adenomatous polyposis. For Crohn’s disease in the small intestine, in terms of software, AI-assisted endoscopic recognition has been proven to reduce misdiagnosis ,improving medical quality. In terms of hardware, the electric spiral enteroscopy is a double-edged sword. Although it has a higher rate of completing entire small intestine examination, it cannot be widely used in clinical practice until its safety is fully guaranteed. In terms of drugs, with the in-depth understanding of the pathogenesis of the disease, targeted therapy for the inflammatory process has gradually become a research hotspot. Clinical data on small-molecule agents such as upadacitinib and filgotinib are continuously accumulating. In terms of surgery, the latest evidence supports that surgery may become a first-line treatment for specific Crohn’s disease. The diagnosis and treatment of small intestine bleeding are also continuously improving. Thalidomide, as a drug used to treat small intestine bleeding caused by capillary malformations, has brought good news to a large number of patients. In addition, the surgical treatment for small intestine obstruction is gradually being updated, and there are now more accurate prediction models for treatment decisions in patients with small intestine obstruction. Looking ahead, with the continuous development and innovation of medical technology, and artificial intelligence, the diagnosis and treatment of small intestinal diseases will become more precise and efficient.

    As the support capacity of renewable energy generation equipment for the power grid needs enhancement, grid-forming control has attracted extensive attention, among which the virtual synchronous generator (VSG) has emerged as a key research frontier and is already being applied in engineering demonstration. Voltage source converter (VSC) with VSG as the synchronization link can be classified into voltage and current dual loop control and direct voltage control according to whether there is a current control loop in the structure. The difference in the two control structures has a significant impact on the transient characteristics of VSC. To study the difference between transient characteristics of two kinds of VSCs, the transient models are developed based on the “power excitation-internal voltage response” model, and the formation mechanism of internal voltage and transient characteristics are comparatively analyzed. Since the VSG simulates the operation characteristics of the synchronous machine, the equivalent inertia and equivalent damping of the VSC are analytically obtained at the electromechanical scale, and their transient behaviors are compared. It is found that the equivalent inertia and damping of a VSC with direct voltage control remain constant, while those of a VSC with voltage and current dual loop control exhibit time-varying characteristics and are numerically smaller than of the direct voltage control system. Finally, the validity of the theoretical analysis is confirmed by electromagnetic transient simulation.

    From the perspective of Transknowletology, the paper conducts a comparative analysis of the translator styles exhibited by Ken Liu and Joel Martinsen in the process of globalizing and reconstructing local Chinese science fiction knowledge. The study constructs a self-built corpus of the English translations ofThe Three-Body Problem and The Dark Forest and employs Multidimensional Analysis method combined with text close reading. It is found that both translators adhere to the general organizational form of knowledge typical to science fiction literature, yet significant differences exist in terms of narrative concerns and informational elaboration in the two translations. The fundamental cause of these stylistic differences lies in their distinct translation philosophies: Ken Liu leans towards “cross-linguistic modulation and intercultural dialogue in knowledge translation”, while Joel Martinsen is more inclined towards “translation as an intermediary for knowledge world-sharing”.

    Connective tissue disease-associated interstitial lung disease (CTD-ILD) is a group of lung diseases caused by connective tissue diseases, with an incidence ranging from 10% to 50% and a mortality rate as high as 20%. The clinical manifestations and imaging features are heterogeneous. However, its pathogenesis is not fully understood. Exploring the risk factors and pathogenesis is crucial for the diagnosis, treatment and prognosis management of CTD-ILD. The risk factors for CTD-ILD are diverse. Firstly,genetic factors play an important role in pathogenesis. Mutation rate of telomere-related genes (including TERT, RTEL1, PARN, and SFTPC) in CTD-ILD patients is three times as high as that of general population. The risk of developing CTD-ILD in patients with the mutation in MUC5B promoter is more than twice that of normal people. The mutations in the TOLLIP and HLA-DRB1 are also associated with increased disease susceptibility. In addition, medications used to treat CTD may also increase the risk of developing ILD. Approximately one-third of CTD-ILD patients also suffer from gastroesophageal reflux disease. Chronic smoking and exposure to air pollution may also increase the incidence of CTD-ILD. CTD-ILD patients with infections have a higher risk of severe outcomes (OR 1.34-2.73) and increased mortality risk (OR 1.2-4.3). The pathogenesis of CTD-ILD involves the abnormality of the immune system, which is mainly manifested in the production of autoantibodies (such as systemic sclerosis-related antibodies and myositis-specific antibodies), the dysfunction of immune cells (such as neutrophils, natural killer cells, Th2 and Th17) and the extensive release of cytokines (such as TNF-α, TGF-β, IL-6 and IL-8), which exist in more than 50% of CTD-ILD patients. The risk factors and pathogenesis of CTD-ILD are complex. Risk prediction model based on these factors may help identify high-risk individuals accurately, which can provide new strategies for the prevention and treatment of the disease, improve the long-term prognosis of patients.

    Immune-mediated necrotizing myopathy (IMNM) is a significant, subtype of idiopathic inflammatory myopathy(IIM), characterized by symmetrical proximal limb muscle weakness and markedly elevated serum creatine kinase levels. Some patients may also exhibit extra-skeletal muscle manifestations, including rashes, interstitial lung disease, and myocardial involvement. Since its international nomenclature in 2003, IMNM has gained increasing recognition among researchers and clinicians, leading to numerous scientific investigations and clinical applications. The incidence and prevalence of IMNM can vary across different geographic regions and ethnic groups. A small sample survey conducted in the United States reported an incidence of 0.83 per 100,000 and a prevalence of 1.85 per 100,000. In northern Spain, among patients positive for anti-HMGCR antibodies, the incidence was found to be 0.6 per 100,000, with a prevalence of 3 per 100,000. However, there is a notable paucity of relevant data regarding IMNM in China. Identified risk factors for IMNM include susceptibility alleles (e.g., HLA-DRB1*11), the use of statins or immune checkpoint inhibitors, and viral infections. Diagnosing IMNM requires a comprehensive evaluation that includes assessing muscle involvement symptoms, identifying myositis-specific autoantibodies, measuring creatine kinase levels, analyzing muscle biopsy pathology, and conducting related examinations. Currently, there is a lack of prospective randomized controlled studies on the treatment of IMNM. In clinical practice, glucocorticoids and traditional immunosuppressants are primarily employed on an empirical basis. For refractory cases, treatment regimens may involve rituximab and intravenous human immunoglobulin. Therapeutic strategies targeting B cells and the mechanisms underlying pathogenic autoantibody production may offer promising avenues for future treatment. This article systematically reviews the clinical characteristics, diagnostic criteria, relevant auxiliary examinations, and treatment strategies for IMNM, aiming to provide a comprehensive reference for clinicians in understanding, diagnosing, and managing this condition.

    The battlefield among great power wars drives the direction of high dynamic and high intensity. A single weapon system or its kill chain is difficult to adapt to future wars. As a new operational concept with high dynamics and high flexibility, the kill web has high self-adaptability, high organization and toughness. Through the extremely fast response speed, the commander can complete the combat groupings and the command control, which significantly enhances the decision-making efficiency. Firstly, this paper conducted research aiming at the combat concept of the kill web. Then, it discussed and analyzed the background of the kill chain, the transition from chain to web, basic concepts, typical cases and key technologies. Finally, utilizing intelligent technology, the paper summarized the concept of a future intelligent kill web.

    Electric vehicles (EVs) can provide significant support for the flexible operation of power systems, in which vehicle-to-grid (V2G) mode is an important way for EVs to participate in the frequency and voltage regulation of power grids. However, the commercialization of V2G has experienced slow progress to date, and the lack of an effective market operation mechanism makes it difficult for large-scale EVs to participate in the ancillary services of the grid. Therefore, a novel evolutionary game model is proposed with the participation of the electricity regulatory commission, power grid company, and EVs and the impact of the strategic choices of the three parties on the operation of the V2G market is explored to identify the subsidy and pricing mechanisms for the government to facilitate the long-term evolution of the V2G. First, replicator dynamic equations for the game are established to investigate the stability of multiple strategy equilibrium points in the three-party evolutionary game. Then, the Lyapunov stability theory is employed to analyze the stability of these equilibrium points and to determine the subsidy amount to promote V2G development. Next, a simulation analysis is conducted on the actual electricity price data from Shanghai in China, which quantitatively identified the government subsidy coefficient range and electricity price range to incentivize EV participation in the V2G model. The simulation results provide theoretical support for the electricity regulatory commission and power grid company in formulating subsidy and pricing strategies.
