Objective:To construct a full-length infectious clone of enterovirus D68(EV-D68)expressing enhanced green fluorescent protein(EGFP)by reverse genetics in order to provide an efficient tool for studying the biological characteristics and screening antiviral drugs for EV-D68.Methods:Gene synthesis and overlap PCR techniques were used to construct the full-length clone plasmid pUC57-EV-D68 of EV-D68. The full-length viral sequence was then transferred into the pCAGGS plasmid to obtain the pCAGGS-EV-D68 plasmid. The EGFP gene was amplified and inserted into the pCAGGS-EV-D68 plasmid to construct the pCAGGS-EGFP-EV-D68 plasmid. Then,the two constructed plasmids were transfected into human rhabdomyosarcoma(RD)cells to rescue recombinant viruses RV-EV-D68 and RV-EGFP-EV-D68. The rescued viruses were identified using PCR,Western blot,and immunofluorescence techniques. The antiviral effect of doxycycline was evaluated using the rescued RV-EGFP-EV-D68. Statistical analysis was performed using the two independent samples t-test. Results:The recombinant virus RV-EGFP-EV-D68 capable of expressing EGFP was successfully rescued. Even after 15 serial passages,the virus retained EGFP expression with no significant difference in viral titers compared to the parental virus,indicating its stable passage in RD cells. Besides,the rescued strains exhibited similar replication characteristics to the parental virus. While at 24 and 36 h after infection,the titers of the rescued strains were significantly lower than that of the parental strain(both P<0.05). This study demonstrated that doxycycline significantly reduced the fluorescence intensity of RV-EGFP-EV-D68-infected RD cells( P<0.01). Meanwhile,a negative correlation was observed between the doxycycline concentration and the fluorescence intensity,indicating that the rescued virus could be used for antiviral drug evaluation. Conclusions:This study successfully constructs an infectious clone of EV-D68 expressing EGFP. The rescued recombinant virus RV-EGFP-EV-D68 has been verified to be applicable for the evaluation of antiviral drugs.
5.The role and mechanism of high-mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) in the pathogenesis of silica associated chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
Chinese Journal of Industrial Hygiene and Occupational Diseases 2025;43(10):781-785
Silica dust is known as the most important risk factor of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and COPD is a leading cause of the third mortality worldwide. Workers exposed to silica dust are at increased risk of COPD as a result of being exposed to silica particles for extended periods of time. While clear links have been established between silica exposure and the development of COPD, the mechanisms are still poorly understood. However, both cigarette and silica combination exposure can be easy to result in COPD. Here we review the current understanding of silica-induced COPD, including incubation period, and the use of experimental animal models for better understanding these mechanisms of pathogenesis. The review summarizes important new knowledge and presents new research directions that are likely to provide new insights, diagnosis and treatments of silica-induced COPD.

This article analyzes the treatment process of a patient with respiratory failure caused by occupational acute acetonitrile poisoning. Due to operational errors, the patient's body was sprayed with a large amount of acetonitrile liquid, leading to the absorption of acetonitrile through the skin and resulting in acute poisoning. The clinical manifestations were nervous system and respiratory system damage, accompanied by severe lactic acidosis. After active comprehensive treatments such as tracheal intubation, mechanical ventilation, continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) , and glucocorticoids, the patient basically recovered. The treatment process of this patient indicates that early identification and correct first aid of acetonitrile poisoning are the keys to improving prognosis and can provide a reference for the handling of similar clinical cases.

Objective:To investigate the association between social support and subjective and objective cognitive functions among the middle-aged and elderly population in Pingyin County, Jinan City, Shandong Province.Methods:Employing a multi-stage cluster random sampling method, a cross-sectional study was conducted in 2023 by selecting people aged 45-70 years from seven villages in three towns within Pingyin County, Jinan City, as survey respondents. Social Support Rating Scale (SSRS), Subjective Cognitive Decline-Questionnaire 9 (SCD-Q9) and Montreal Cognitive Assessment-Basic (MoCA-B) were used to assess the social support and cognitive status of interviewees, and a self-developed questionnaire was used to collect other basic information. Pearson correlation analysis, multiple linear regression and multifactorial logistic regression were used to explore the relationship between social support and subjective and objective cognitive functions.Results:A total of 1 891 subjects were finally included in the study, with 45.52±6.99 for the SSRS total score, an abnormal rate of 43.68% (826/1 891) for the SCD-Q9 score and an abnormal rate of 60.02% (1 135/1 891) for the MoCA-B score. The SSRS total score, subjective support score, objective support score and support utilization score were negatively correlated with SCD-Q9 scores and positively correlated with MoCA-B scores (all P<0.05). An increase in SSRS total score ( β=-0.034, 95% CI: -0.051--0.017, P<0.001) and objective support score ( β=-0.074, 95% CI: -0.121--0.027, P=0.002) can lower SCD-Q9 scores. Compared to those who had only 1 source of financial support or help with practical problems when experiencing an acute situation, those with 2-4 ( OR=0.53, 95% CI: 0.34-0.82), 5 ( OR=0.46, 95% CI: 0.27-0.79), or 6-7 ( OR=0.42, 95% CI: 0.22-0.81) sources of help were more likely to have normal SCD-Q9 scores. Compared to individuals with ≤2 close friends who provided support and help, those with 3-5 ( OR=0.67, 95% CI: 0.50-0.91) or ≥6 friends ( OR=0.72, 95% CI: 0.54-0.97) were more likely to have normal MoCA-B scores. Moreover, compared to individuals who never participated in group activities, those who actively participated ( OR=0.59, 95% CI: 0.42-0.81) were more likely to have normal MoCA-B scores. Conclusions:Social support has protective effects on subjective and objective cognitive functions, and various social support conditions have different protective effects on subjective and objective cognitive functions among middle-aged and older people. Improving social support conditions for middle-aged and elderly individuals may delay the process of cognitive decline.

Objective:To analyze the characteristics of anonymous online dating and related factors of not being tested for HIV among men who have sex with men and to provide the basis for developing targeted HIV prevention strategies and intervention measures.Methods:Using a cross-sectional study design, respondents were recruited with the assistance of MSM social organizations from April to July 2023 in eight cities in Shandong Province. Snowball sampling, activity venues, and networks were employed, targeting a sample size of 400 people per city. A face-to-face questionnaire survey collected data on sociodemographic characteristics, drug use, sexual intercourse, and online informed dating. Blood samples were also collected for HIV and syphilis antibody testing.Results:In the past six months, 2 787 MSM sought homosexual partners through the Internet, and 78.26% (2 181/2 787) chose to make anonymous online dating. Before having homosexual sex with online sexual partners, 10.41% (290/2 787) of them did not ask each other about HIV infection status and 33.37% (930/2 787) of them not being tested for HIV. There were statistically significant differences in the distribution of age, marital status, household registration, education level, sexual orientation, ways to find male sexual partners, not asking online sexual partners about their HIV status before sexual intercourse, no mutual HIV testing with online sexual partners before sexual intercourse, and syphilis antibody between anonymous and non-anonymous online dating persons (all P<0.05). The results of multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that <25 years old (a OR=1.43, 95% CI: 1.15-1.77) and ≥35 years old age group (a OR=1.61, 95% CI: 1.29-2.01), people with no AIDS knowledge (a OR=2.37, 95% CI: 1.25-4.49), drug users (a OR=1.38, 95% CI: 1.17-1.63), online dating anonymous (a OR=2.19, 95% CI: 1.76-2.73), HIV antibody positive (a OR=3.61, 95% CI: 2.22-5.88) and no intervention services in the last 1 year (a OR=1.58, 95% CI: 1.05-2.38) were the related factors of MSM not being tested for HIV before having sexual intercourse through online dating. Conclusions:The phenomenon of anonymous online dating was common among MSM in Shandong Province, and the proportion of MSM not being tested for HIV before having sexual intercourse through anonymous online dating was relatively high. It is necessary to strengthen health publicity and promote informed dating in MSM.

Objective:This study aims to construct a machine learning model to predict depression symptoms in the elderly and analyze the key influencing factors of depression in the elderly using the shapley additive interpretation (SHAP) method.Methods:Based on entries from the 2018 China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study database, a sample of 5 954 elderly individuals was selected. Feature selection using Support Vector Machine Recursive Feature Elimination, Extreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost) - Recursive Feature Elimination (RFE), and the Lasso algorithm, which was combined with five classifiers-logistic regression, decision trees, random forests, support vector machines, and XGBoost-to explore the classification effectiveness for depressive symptoms in the elderly. Finally, the SHAP method was used to interpret the analysis of the model with the highest receiver operating characteristic curve areas under the curve (AUC).Results:The accuracy of 15 prediction models ranged from 0.702 to 0.743, with AUC between 0.730 and 0.795. Sensitivity was reported at 0.546 to 0.588, while specificity ranges from 0.783 to 0.865. The model XGBoost-RFE-XGBoost presented the highest AUC. Based on SHAP values, the top four factors influencing depressive symptoms in older adults were life satisfaction, duration of nighttime sleep, disability status, and self-rated health.Conclusion:This study developed a highly efficient and interpretable risk prediction model for depressive symptoms in older adults, which could help identify high-risk older adults and give personalized interventions.

Objective:To analyze the transition patterns of anal sex and unprotected anal intercourse (UAI), estimate the transition intensity and probability, and identify factors influencing the transition patterns in men who have sex with men (MSM) in Shandong Province.Methods:In August 2019, MSM aged ≥18 years old were recruited as subjects from 11 cities in Shandong Province. The baseline survey were completed in December 2019, and followup surveys were conducted once every 3 mouths from June 2020 to March 2021. Time-continuous, state-discrete multi-state reversible Markov model was constructed based on the status of MSM's sexual behaviors with different types of sexual partners [anal sex occurred or not (S1=No, S2=Yes) and UAI occurred or not (S1=No,S2=Yes)] to analyze the transition patterns and the influencing factors.Results:A total of 735 MSM were included. The transition intensity of starting anal sex with stable and casual partners was 1.935 times and 0.595 times higher than that of discontinuing this behavior, respectively. While the transition intensity to start UAI with stable and casual partners was 0.430 times and 0.169 times higher than that of discontinuing it, respectively. During the follow-up, the transition probabilities of anal sex and UAI with both stable and casual partners increased first and then stabilized. For stable partners, the transition probability of starting anal sex was higher than that of discontinuing it at the same period, for casual partners, it was just the reverse. For both stable and casual partners, the transition probabilities of discontinuing UAI were higher than starting it at the same time. The results of multivariate analysis showed that participants who received intervention materials ( HR=1.47), had an associate degree ( HR=1.77) or a bachelor's degree and above ( HR=1.47) were at higher risk of starting anal sex with stable partners. Those who received intervention materials ( HR=1.39) were at higher risk of discontinuing anal sex with stable partners, while participants identified themselves as non-male gender ( HR=0.49) were at lower risk of discontinuing anal sex with stable partners. Participants received intervention materials ( HR=1.75) were at higher risk of starting UAI with stable partners. Those who lived apart, divorced, or widowed ( HR=3.22) were at higher risk of starting UAI with casual partners, whereas had a bachelor's degree and above ( HR=0.58) were at lower risk of starting UAI with casual partners. Participants identified themselves as non-male gender ( HR=0.45) at lower risk of discounting UAI with casual partners. Conclusions:The transition patterns of homosexual behavior in MSM are different. Marital status, gender identity, educational level and other factors are the influencing factors of sexual behavior status transitions. Future researches should develop targeted interventions for different types of sexual partners and characteristics of MSM.
