Objective To investigate the differences and characteristics of virulence genes carried by Salmonella enteritidis from different sources in Shijiazhuang City.Methods One hundred and twenty-four strains of Salmonella enteritidis isolated from morning markets of raw and poultry stalls,slaughterhouses and food poisoning specimens in Shijiazhuang area were collected.Eight virulence genes (invA,sopE,agfA,spvR,hilA,stn,pefA,shdA) were detected by polymerase chain reaction (PCR).Results Salmonella enteritidis might have different virulence gene profiles.The above eight virulence genes were detected in different strains.The carrying rate of virulence genes invA,sopE,stn,hilA,spvR and pefA in the food poisoning strains was higher than 94％.There was no difference in the carrying rate of 8 virulence gene between the morning raw poultry stalls isolates and the patient strains,but was different with the slaughterhouse strains.Conclusion There were more risks of food poisoning caused by Salmonella enteritidis from morning markets,and the hygiene supervision should be strengthened to prevent and control foodborne disease.

We investigated the carrying status of the virulence genes of Salmonella from different sources in Shijiazhuang City,China,to provide the basic data for the further risk assessment of Salmonella.A total of 186 isolates of Salmonella from different sources were collected and identified serotypes in the area of Shijiazhuang from 2011 to 2016.PCR was performed for eight virulence genes (invA,sopE,agfA,spvR,hilA,stn,pefA,shdA).These Salmonella bacteria were detected in 13 kinds of serotypes.Enteritidis is a significant advantage of the group.The above 8 virulence genes were analyzed,and the virulence genes hilA,stn and invA were the most frequently carried,their respective carrying rate were 90.3％ (168/186),86.6％ (161/186) and 82.8％ (154/186) respectively.We found the virulence genes of Salmonella from different sources were different.It is necessary to take measures to strengthen the food hygiene supervision and prevention and control of the storage and sale of raw poultry stalls in the morning market in Shijiazhuang area.

AIM: To investigate the relationship between expression of Bmi-1(B cell-specific MLV integration site-1) in gastric cancer and its clinicopathologic significance.METHODS: 146 surgical patients with gastric carcinoma were followed up at least 2 years.Expression of Bmi-1 protein was examined by immunohistochemistry in their archival paraffin embedded tissue specimens.RESULTS: The intensive positive rate of Bmi-1 expression in gastric cancer was 67.8%(99/146).Expression of Bmi-1 was highly correlated with tumor size,clinical stage,lymph node metastasis and T classification(P0.05).The survival rate in the patients with Bmi-1 expression was much lower than that in those patients without Bmi-1 expression(P

Objective To explore the related imaging factors about the change of systemic circulation time for aortic dissection (AD)patients.Methods Image data of 36 patients with AD and 30 patients in control group were analyzed retrospectively,the cor-relation analysis was made between the results of imaging measurement by using CT angiography (CTA)and the threshold time of the contrast agent in the left ventricular.3 6 patients with AD were divided into 2 groups (type A 1 7 cases and type B 1 9 cases)by using Stanford type.First,the threshold time in the left ventricular of the 3 groups were analyzed comparatively;next,the correla-tions between each CTA measured parameter and the threshold time in the left ventricle were analyzed.Results Threshold time in left ventricular of group Stanford A and group Stanford B were compared with the control group respectively,the overall mean difference was statistically significant (P <0.05).Between Stanford A and B,there was no significant difference (P>0.05).There was a significant correlation between threshold time in left ventricular and the ratio of false/true lumen (r=0.676,P<0.001).And the correlation was also found between threshold time and the maximum diameter of aorta or the diameter of intimal tear (r = 0.371 and 0.355,P> 0.05).Conclusion The threshold time of left ventricular for aortic dissection patients is significantly longer than the normal control group,and is significantly related with the ratio of false/true lumen.

Objective To investigate the risk factors of early rebleeding after endoscopic treatment of esophageal varices. Methods A retrospective analysis was performed on the clinical data of 384 cirrhotic patients with esophageal varices. The factors of early rebleeding group[n=36(9.4%)]and non?bleeding group(n=348)were compared by single factor analysis and multivariate analysis of Logistic regression. Results Single factor analysis showed that there were differences between the two groups in cirrhosis with hepatocellular carcinoma, Child?Pugh classification, Child?Pugh score, ascites volume, portal vein thrombosis, portal vein width, portal hypertensive gastropathy, shapes and numbers of varicose veins, numbers of varicose vein ligation, varicose vein red syndrome, albumin, total bilirubin, prothrombin time, prothrombin activity and platelet number. Further multivariate analysis showed that mass ascites(P=0.000, OR=7.614,95%CI: 3.590?16.147), portal vein thrombosis(P=0.003, OR=2.867, 95%CI: 1.429?5.750),portal hypertensive gastropathy(P=0.000, OR=6.212, 95%CI: 3.036?12.711), and Child?Pugh C(P=0.008,OR=3.078,95%CI:1.338?7.083)were independent risk factors of early rebleeding after endoscopic treatment. Conclusion The early rebleeding rate was high after endoscopic treatment of esophageal varices. Patients with massive ascites,portal vein thrombosis,portal hypertensive gastropathy and Child?Pugh C should be highly vigilant for early rebleeding.

Objective To explore the application value of multimodal MRI in the preoperative staging of cervical cancer.Methods The preoperative imaging data of 60 patients with cervical cancer confirmed by surgical pathology or biopsy were analyzed retro-spectively.The results of preoperative staging by multimodal MRI and postoperative pathological staging were compared.The diag-nostic accuracy of multimodal MRI in staging of cervical cancer was evaluated.Results Among the 60 cases,the preoperative staging results of multimodal MRI were 25 ⅠB,20 ⅡA1,9 ⅡA2,and 6 ⅢC.While the postoperative pathological staging results were 27 Ⅰ B,18 ⅡA1,9 ⅡA2,and 6 ⅢC.The staging results achieved by preoperative multimodal MRI and postoperative pathological staging were in good agreement.With the postoperative pathological staging as the gold standard,the diagnostic accuracy of multimodal MRI in preoperative staging was 100.00%(25/25),85.00%(17/20),77.78%(7/9),and 83.33%(5/6),respectively.Conclusion Multimodal MRI has a high accuracy in the preoperative staging of cervical cancer which can be used as a routine evaluation tool for the accurate preoperative staging of cervical cancer in clinical work.

Objective To study the prevalence and the main risk factors of neonatal asphyxia in southern Gansu province high-altitude area.Method From October 2016 to December 2016,clinical data of neonates born in eight hospitals of the region were analyzed.A uniform questionnaire was used to survey the maternal condition and family background.Univariate and multivariate Logistic regression analysis were used to determine the risk factors of neonatal asphyxia.Result A total of 183 newborns were born with asphyxia (mild 157 cases,severe 26 cases),and the incidence of neonatal asphyxia was 15.3％ (183/1 197).The multivariate Logistic regression analysis indicated that the risk factors included altitude less than 3 000 meters (OR =2.693,95％ CI 1.275 ～5.689),maternal fever (OR =2.986,95％ CI 1.163 ～7.666),prolonged labor (OR =2.925,95％ CI 1.112 ～ 7.691),fetal distress (OR =7.000,95％ CI 3.254 ～ 15.056),uterine inertia (OR =2.737,95％ CI 1.484 ～ 5.047),umbilical cord abnormality (OR =3.094,95％ CI 2.051 ～4.668),amniotic fluid abnormality (OR =2.033,95％ CI 1.230 ～3.361)and placental abnormality (OR =2.753,95％ CI 1.016 ～ 7.464).Annual household income more than 30 000 yuan (OR =0.452,95％ CI 0.297 ～0.687) was protective factor of neonatal asphyxia.Conclusion The incidence of neonatal asphyxia was high in the region,which was related to intrauterine and intrapartum factors.Antepartum monitoring and timely treatment should be strengthened to reduce the incidence of newborn asphyxia.

Objective:To investigate the clinical characteristics and experience in the diagnosis and treatment of neonatal gastric perforation, and the factors influencing prognosis.Methods:This was a retrospective analysis involving 49 neonatal gastric perforation cases who underwent surgical treatment in the Neonatal Surgery Department of Shanxi Children's Hospital from January 2008 to December 2017. Their clinical data, including manifestations, auxiliary examinations, operations, and prognosis, were analyzed. According to the prognosis, these patients were divided into two groups, survival group, and fatality group. Independent sample t-test or continuity correction Chi-square (or Fisher's exact) test was used for statistical analysis. Results:(1) Of the 49 cases, 29 (59.2%) were boys, and 20 (40.8%) were girls. There were 30 (61.2%) premature and 19 (38.8%) full-term babies. Their birth weight ranged between 1 010 and 5 000 g with an average of (2 450±700) g. Low birth weight infants accounted for 59.2% (29/49). There were 11 cases (22.4%) having perinatal adverse events, 17 (34.7%) complicated by septic shock before the operation, and six (12.2%) with digestive tract malformation. Two cases (4.1%) underwent resuscitation due to postnatal asphyxia; two (4.1%) received mechanical ventilation due to respiratory distress syndrome; 12 (24.5%) received indwelling were indwelled gastric tube or gastric lavage. (2) The average onset time of neonatal gastric perforation in the 49 cases was (3.8±2.0) d after birth, and 47(95.9%) of them presented initial symptoms within one week, including 36 within four days. Twenty-five cases (51.0%) were operated within 12 h after the onset. (3) The common first symptoms include abdominal distention [69.4% (34/49)] and abdominal distension complicated with vomiting (24.5%, 12/49). Thirty-nine cases (79.6%) showed a large amount of free gas under the diaphragm, compressed and down-moving liver, and decreased or disappeared stomach bubble in the preoperative abdominal radiograph. (4) All cases received emergency laparotomy and primary gastric wall repair after admission. During the operation, 27 (55.1%) of all the cases had perforation at the greater curvature, five (10.2%) at the lesser curvature, 14 (28.6%) at the anterior wall, and three (6.1%) at the posterior wall. Perforation larger than 3 cm in diameter was found in 33 cases (67.3%). Three cases (6.1%) had postoperative wound infection; two (4.1%) developed anastomotic leakage; one was complicated by pneumohydrothorax 48 h after the operation due to esophageal duplication and perforation, which was confirmed by a second operation. (5) Of the 49 cases, 35 (71.4%) were due to congenital gastric wall muscular defect, four (8.2%) were caused by iatrogenic injury, and 10 (20.4%) were spontaneous perforation. (6) Among all cases, 36 (73.5%) survived, while eight (16.3%) died, and five (10.2%) withdraw treatment after the operation. After excluding the five cases giving up treatment after the operation, the proportion of patients who underwent operation within 12 h after onset or had the perforation <3 cm in diameter was higher in the survival group than in the fatality group [61.1% (22/36) vs. 1/8, χ2=4.404, P<0.05; 41.7% (15/36) vs. 0/8, P<0.05], and the incidence of septic shock before the operation was lower [22.2% (8/36) vs. 6/8, χ2=6.147, P<0.05]. Conclusions:Neonatal gastric perforation shows a high mortality rate, and its underlying pathologic etiology is congenital gastric wall muscle defect. Abrupt abdominal distension is the main clinical manifestation. Early operation is critical to improving neonatal prognosis.

Objective:To summarize the imaging features of severe unilateral transverse sinus and sigmoid sinus thromboses, and evaluate the efficacy and safety of intravascular interventional therapy in them.Methods:Thirty-seven patients with severe unilateral transverse sinus and sigmoid sinus thromboses clinically mainly manifested as intracranial hypertension and accepted endovascular intervention in Department of Interventional Radiology, First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from June 2012 to September 2022 were chosen; their clinical data were retrospectively analyzed and imaging features were summarized. Short-term efficacy was evaluated according to blood flow restoration degrees and pressure gradient reduction in the occlusive sinus and modified neurological symptoms before and after endovascular intervention. Hospitalized complications were observed; safety and long-term efficacy were evaluated according to postoperative clinical follow-up and imaging results 6-12 months after endovascular intervention.Results:(1) Preoperative brain MRI and (or) CT showed different degrees of swelling of the brain tissues, with the affected side as the target; mixed signals/density shadow could be seen in the blocked transverse sinus and sigmoid sinus; venous cerebral infarction or post-infarction cerebral hemorrhage could be combined in some patients. MRV, CTV and DSA showed poor or completely occluded transverse sinus and sigmoid sinus while normal in the contralateral side; obvious thrombus filling-defect was observed in the occluded venous sinus after mechanical thrombolysis. (2) Occlusive sinus blood flow was restored in all patients after endovascular intervention, and pressure gradient of the occlusive segment decreased from (16.6±3.3) mmHg before to (2.8±0.8) mmHg after endovascular intervention. Before discharge, clinical symptoms of all patients were significantly improved (modified Rankin scale [mRS] scores of 0 in 30 patients, 1 in 5 patients, 2 in 1 patient and 3 in 1 patient), and 2 patients had unilateral limb movement disorder (muscle strength grading III and IV, respectively). All patients received clinical follow-up for (9.6±3.0) months. At the last follow-up, neurological function obviously improved compared with that before endovascular intervention, without new neurosystem-related symptoms (mRS scores of 0 in 30 patients, 1 in 6, and 2 in 1 patient). In 34 patients received MRV or DSA follow-up, 28 had complete recanalization of occlusive sinus and 6 had partial recanalization, without obvious stenosis or recurrent occlusion.Conclusions:Severe unilateral transverse sinus and sigmoid sinus thrombosis can cause local intracranial venous blood stasis, and then cause "increased regional venous sinus pressure", which is manifested as unilateral brain tissue swelling and even venous cerebral infarction or post-infarction cerebral hemorrhage. Early diagnosis and endovascular intervention can obviously improve the prognosis of these patients, enjoying good safety.

COVID-19 is caused by coronavirus SARS-CoV-2. Current systemic vaccines generally provide limited protection against viral replication and shedding within the airway. Recombinant VSV (rVSV) is an effective vector which inducing potent and comprehensive immunities. Currently, there are two clinical trials investigating COVID-19 vaccines based on VSV vectors. These vaccines were developed with spike protein of WA1 which administrated intramuscularly. Although intranasal route is ideal for activating mucosal immunity with VSV vector, safety is of concern. Thus, a highly attenuated rVSV with three amino acids mutations in matrix protein (VSV_MT) was developed to construct safe mucosal vaccines against multiple SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern. It demonstrated that spike protein mutant lacking 21 amino acids in its cytoplasmic domain could rescue rVSV efficiently. VSV_MT indicated improved safeness compared with wild-type VSV as the vector encoding SARS-CoV-2 spike protein. With a single-dosed intranasal inoculation of rVSV_ΔGMT-S_Δ21, potent SARS-CoV-2 specific neutralization antibodies could be stimulated in animals, particularly in term of mucosal and cellular immunity. Strikingly, the chimeric VSV encoding S_Δ21 of Delta-variant can induce more potent immune responses compared with those encoding S_Δ21 of Omicron- or WA1-strain. VSV_MT is a promising platform to develop a mucosal vaccine for countering COVID-19.
