Chinese Journal of Biologicals 2025;38(08):939-943+950
Objective To monitor the antibody levels against measles, mumps and rubella in healthy population in Pudong New Area of Shanghai from 2018 to 2022, so as to provide evidence for the improvement of immunization strategy.Methods A total of 1 305 healthy people from 16 communities in Pudong New Area, Shanghai were randomly sampled and divided into12 age groups(0 ~ < 8 months old to ≥ 50 years old). The levels of IgG antibodies against measles, rubella and mumps in venous blood serum were detected by ELISAResults One sample was discarded because no results were detected. In 1 304serum samples, the positive rates of measles, rubella and mumps IgG antibodies were 63. 65%, 48. 39% and 58. 21%, and the geometric mean concentrations(GMCs) of the antibodies were 229. 74 mIU/mL, 11. 63 IU/mL and 76. 43 U/mL, respectively.The positive rates of measles, rubella and mumps IgG antibodies(χ~2= 0. 01-4. 874, each P > 0. 05) and GMCs(t = 0. 020-2. 583,P > 0. 05) in the serum of healthy people of different genders and household registrations showed no statistically significant difference, while the positive rates of IgG antibodies(χ~2= 16. 865-667. 297, each P < 0. 01) and GMCs(t = 5. 862-117. 019,each P < 0. 001) in the serum of healthy people with different age, year and vaccination history exhibited statistically significant differences.Conclusion The antibody levels of measles, rubella and mumps among healthy population in Pudong New Area of Shanghai are related to the year, age and immunization history, and there is still a certain risk of infection. It is suggested to strengthen the monitoring of immune status of healthy population and vaccination of women at childbearing age related to measles, mumps and rubella, which will help reduce the risk of measles, rubella and mumps in healthy population under vaccination age.

Objective To analyze the related influencing factors of progressive ischemic stroke, and to investigate the value of serum markers for prediction of progressive ischemic stroke. Methods Three hundred and six patients with acute cerebral infarction were divided into progressive ischemic stroke (PIS) group (n=91) and non-progressive ischemic stroke (NPIS) group (n=215). Data of gender, age, past medical history, personal history and serum markers were collected and compared in two groups. Binary Logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of PIS. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves of neutrophils to lymphocytes ratio (NLR), fibrinogen and fasting blood glucose were analyzed in two groups. Results Positive rates of hypertension history, diabetes history, hypercholesterolemia history, incidence of large artery atherosclerotic (LAA) stroke were significantly higher in PIS group than those in NPIS group ( P<0.05). The levels of neutrophils, NLR, fibrinogen and fasting blood glucose were significantly higher, but the level of lymphocytes was significantly lower in patients with PIS than those in patients with NPIS (P<0.05). Logistic regression analysis confirmed that diabetes, LAA stroke, NLR, fibrinogen and fasting blood glucose were independent risk factors for the PIS ( P<0.05). The areas under ROC curve by NLR, fibrinogen and fasting blood glucose were 0.777, 0.560 and 0.574, respectively. The sensitivities of NLR, fibrinogen and fasting blood glucose were 72.5%, 59.8%and 47.3%, respectively;and the specificities were 76.7%, 51.2% and 69.8%, respectively. Conclusion The occurrence of PIS is related with blood pressure, blood lipids, inflammatory cells in peripheral bolld, fibrinogen and fasting blood glucose. The level of NLR in peripheral blood can predict the occurrence of PIS, which can be used as an important reference index for early diagnosis of PIS.

OBJECTIVE:
To observe the correlation between the threshold of tone burst auditory brain stem response (Tb-ABR) and ASSR (auditory steady-state response) and the threshold of BA (behavioral audiometry). To investigate the accuracy and clinical value of Tb-ABR and ASSR in pediatric hearing assessment.
METHOD:
From January, 2014 to December, 2014, 76 children (123 ears) recieved hearing examination in the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University. They were classified into three groups according to the hearing level: 23 children (46 ears) with normal hearing ability in group A, 27 children (32 ears) with slightly-moderate sensorineural deafness in group B and 26 children (45 ears) with severe-profound sensorineural deafness in group C. Tb-ABR, ASSR, BA in 4 frequencies (0.5, 1.0, 2.0, 4.0 kHz) were tested and the results were statistically analyzed.
RESULT:
(1) At the 4 frequencies (0.5-4.0 kHz), we obtained 132 thresholds of Tb-ABR, 144 of ASSR, 152of BA. And 166 thresholds were obtained in Tb-ABR+ASSR+BA in total . (2) The thresholds of Tb-ABR, ASSR and those of BA in all 3 groups had linear relations at 0.5-4.0 kHz. The correlation coefficients of group A were 0.76, 0.82, 0.87 and 0.91; 0.52, 0.57, 0.67 and 0.64. Those of Group B were 0.89, 0.95, 0.98 and 0.95; 0.74, 0.82, 0.87 and 0.90. Those of Group C were 0.91, 0.90, 0.92 and 0.89; 0.93, 0.95, 0.95 and 0.91.
CONCLUSION
(1) Both ASSR and Tb-ABR can allow reasonably accurate predictions for the pediatric hearing assessment. The correlation between Tb-ABR threshold and BA threshold is higher in normal hearing children and slightly-moderate sensorineural deafness children. The correlation between ASSR threshold and BA threshold is higher in severe-profound sensorineural deafness children. (2) The hearing test combination can evaluate the residual hearing ability for children with severe hearing loss.
