    Objective To study and improve medical equipment fault diagnosis techniques by utilizing system state detection methods to quickly and accurately diagnose faults in medical equipment without schematics, thereby enhancing the efficiency and accuracy of equipment maintenance. Methods This study employed the system state detection method, using online testers and digital oscilloscopes to establish a system state database for the equipment. The study involved 20 common medical devices from a hospital, including blood oxygen monitors and laminar flow fan frequency converters. When equipment failures occurred, traditional fault localization methods were first used to narrow the fault range to the board level. Subsequently, online testers and digital oscilloscopes were used for component comparison testing, combined with previous successful cases for fault diagnosis. Results Among the 20 medical devices, 18 were successfully diagnosed and repaired, achieving a fault diagnosis accuracy rate of 90%. Specific cases included successfully eliminating ADC chip faults in the PM9000 monitor's blood oxygen board and E2PROM faults in the laminar flow fan frequency converter. By establishing a system state database and case database, the efficiency of equipment fault diagnosis was significantly improved, with the average diagnosis time reduced by 30%. Conclusion System state detection can effectively enhance the accuracy of medical equipment fault diagnosis and should be further promoted to optimize maintenance management.

    Objective To understand the water quality and health status of swimming pools in Banan District of Chongqing, and to provide scientific basis for further strengthening the health management of swimming places, so as to ensure the health of swimming enthusiasts. Methods The total bacterial count and coliform microbial index of swimming pool water in Banan District of Chongqing were monitored. Results A total of 384 swimming pool water samples were monitored in Banan District of Chongqing from 2018 to 2022, and the overall qualified rate was ${97.12}\%$, the lowest qualified rate was ${90.70}\%$ in 2020, and there was no significant difference in 5-year qualified rate $\left({{\chi }^{2}= {6.395}, P >{0.05}}\right)$. There was no significant difference in the qualified rate of microbial detection in swimming pool water between different seasons $\left({{\chi }^{2}= {4.899}}\right.$, $P >{0.05})$. There was significant difference in the qualified rate of microorganism monitoring in swimming pool water of different types of swimming pool venues $\left({{\chi }^{2}= {17.361}, P <{0.01}}\right)$. Conclusion The microbial detection of swimming pool water in Banan District of Chongqing from 2018 to 2022 is generally good, but there are still some unqualified samples. It is necessary to strengthen the supervision and management of microorganism detection in swimming pool water and relevant technical guidance.

    Objective To investigate the effects of enrofloxacin andciprofloxacin residues in hot processed shrimp and to provide referencefor dietary risk assessment. Methods The shrimp (Penaeus indicus) afterdrug administration was selected as raw material, and a detection methodbased on RP-HPLC-FLD was established. The shrimp was processed by twohot processing methods: boiling and drying. The effects of water-shrimpratio (proportion of water to shrimp), boil holding time, dryingtemperature and drying time on residual concentrations of enrofloxacinand ciprofloxacin in shrimp were evaluated. Results During the boilingprocess, the residual concentrations of enrofloxacin and ciprofloxacinin shrimp decreased with the increase of water-to-shrimp ratio andboiling retention time, and the residual concentrations reached theminimum when the water-to-shrimp ratio was 5 . Under this condition, theeffect on the residual concentrations was significantly reduced afterthe boiling retention time reached ${20}\mathrm{\;{min}}$ . During the dryingprocess, the residual concentrations of enrofloxacin and ciprofloxacinincreased with increasing drying temperature and remained basicallyunchanged between 150 and ${180}^{\circ }\mathrm{C}$ . When thedrying temperature was set at ${150}^{\circ }\mathrm{C}$ , the residualconcentration increased with the increase of drying time and remainedbasically unchanged between 5 and 8 min. Studies have shown that boilingcan significantly reduce the residual concentrations of enrofloxacin andciprofloxacin in shrimp, while drying can cause the residualconcentrations to increase on the basis of boiling. The overallprocessing factor of enrofloxacin and ciprofloxacin was less than 1 ,indicating that the residual concentrations of enrofloxacin andciprofloxacin in dried shrimp were lower than those in raw shrimp. Conclusion The study in this paper can help processing enterprises orquality supervision departments to effectively evaluate the impact ofantibiotic residues in hot processing shrimp, and put forward relevantsuggestions on food safety.

    The large-scale instrument sharing platform in universities is the core resource for sharing scientific and technological resources. It not only provides strong support for teaching and research in various universities, but also offers technical support to relevant enterprises and other social units. After analyzing the current large-scale instrument sharing platforms in universities, it was found that there are problems in the service process. Based on the development of service plans, the construction of experimental teams, cross institutional cooperation mechanisms, and service quality evaluation and monitoring mechanisms, a “one-stop" service system guided by "demand" was proposed to optimize the entire service process, promote the improvement of sharing benefits, and form a closed-loop management.
