Objective This study aims to comprehensively investigate the molecular characteristics of the predominant circulating Dengue virus type 1 (DENV-1) during the 2019 Dengue fever outbreak in Xishuangbanna, providing an essential insight to support the prevention and control of dengue fever in the local area. Methods A Dengue virus type 1 (DENV-1) strain, designated as JHS45, isolated from the blood of a febrile patient in Xishuangbanna in 2019, underwent a process of inoculation and cultivation in C6/36 cells. Second-generation sequencing was employed to capture the viral genetic sequence. Bioinformatics software, including CLC, was used for assembling the sequencing data. Sequentially, sequence alignment, construction of a phylogenetic tree, and analysis of amino acid sites were conducted using software such as Lasergene and MEGA6.1. Results Cytopathic effects of JHS45 appeared in C6/36 cells after 6 days. After sequencing and assembly, a 10 687-nucleotide (nt) long sequence of the JHS45 virus was obtained (GenBank accession number: OR593353). Genetic evolutionary analysis revealed that the JHS45 virus formed an evolutionary branch with DENV-1 genotype I viruses prevalent in Xishuangbanna, Guangzhou, Henan, and Zhejiang in China during 2019, as well as the DENV-1 genotype I virus prevalent in Thailand in 2013, with nucleotide homology of 97.6% to 99.9% and amino acid homology of 99.1% to 100%. Further analysis revealed that the JHS45 strain shared a smaller evolutionary branch with the DENV-1 genotype I viruses prevalent in Xishuangbanna (MW386863) and Guangzhou (MW261839) in 2019, showing the highest homology with nucleotide and amino acid homology of 99.9% and 100%, respectively. Amino acid differential site analysis between the JHS45 strain and the DENV-1 prevalent in Xishuangbanna since 2015 revealed 40 amino acid differential sites in the coding region of the JHS45 virus, primarily concentrated in the NS3 and NS5 regions of non-structural proteins. Conclusion The comprehensive analysis of the JHS45 strain's whole genome sequence indicates it is a DENV-1 genotype I virus. The genetic evolutionary relationship between this Xishuangbanna dengue fever outbreak is closely related to the prevalent virus strains in Xishuangbanna, Guangzhou, Henan, and Zhejiang. These findings provide a robust scientific foundation for monitoring dengue fever outbreaks, conducting virus evolution studies, and shaping effective prevention and control strategies, not only within Yunnan Province but also on a broader scale throughout China.

Objective To analyze the outcome of intra-artery chemotherapy for T1G3 bladder cancer , and its effectiveness and safety. Methods From June 2003 to May 2014, 39 patients with T1G3 bladder cancer chose intra-artery chemotherapy (Gemcitabine plus cis-platin), and close follow-up was required after 2 cycles of chemotherapy. During the follow-up, transurethral resection of bladder tumor was performed for non-muscle invasive bladder cancer, and cystectomy was performed for muscle invasive tumor. Results Of all patients, 32 were male and 7 were female. The median age was 56 years old (range: 32-82 years), and median follow-up time was 56 months (range: 12-136 months). Nineteen patients were primary bladder cancer, and 20 were recurrent tumor. During the follow-up, 17 patients developed recurrent tumors, including 8 progressed tumors and 3 died from tumor. Two-year and 5-year progressed-free survival were 88% and 74%, and 2-year and 5-year cancer-specific survival were 97% and 89%, respectively. During 5 years′ follow-up, 81% survivor preserved intact bladder, and only 1 patient cancelled chemotherapy for adverse effect. Conclusions Intra-artery chemotherapy (GC regimen) is a choice for T1G3bladder cancer, preventing from disease progression with good tolerance.

Objective To investigate the relationship between serum 25-(OH) D3 and autoimmune thyroid diseases (AITD).Methods Serum levels of 25-(OH) D3, thyroid antibodies (thyroid stimulating hormone receptor antibody (TRAb), TGAb (thyroid globulin antibody), thyroid peroxidase antibody (TPOAb) and thyroid function of 32 cases patients with Graves' diseases (GD), 17 cases patients without remission of GD,10 cases patients with remission of GD,35 cases patients with Hashimoto's thyroiditis (HT),and 58 cases healthy subjects were measured,and the relationships between serum 25-(OH) D3 and the above clinical index were analyzed.Results The serum level of 25-(OH) D3 in patients with GD or HT were obviously lower than that in healthy subjects((50.75±17.60) μg/L, (36.40±21.65) μg/L, (43.05±19.53) μg/L,P＜0.05).No significant difference of the serum level of 25-(OH) D3 was found between patients refractory of GD and those with GD in remission((32.43±17.50) μg/L, (31.88±14.48) μg/L,P=0.866).However,compared with the normal control group,both diseased groups showed significantly decrease (P＜0.05).No correlation was found between serum 25-(OH) D3 and TRAb, FT3, Fr4 as well as TSH in GD group.No correlation was found between serum 25-(OH) D3 and TGAb, TPOAb (P＞ 0.05).Conclusion Serum vitamin D levels are decreased in patients with AITD, which has been speculated as a potential therapeutic method for AITD, though further investigations are needed to establish the precise role of 25-(OH) D3 in AITD.

Objective:To analyze the characteristics of prenatal MRI and postnatal CT images of fetal congenital mesoblastic nephroma (CMN).Methods:We retrospectively recruited three women with a singleton pregnancy suspected of having fetal CMN by prenatal imaging examination and confirmed by postpartum surgical resection and pathological examination at Guangzhou Women and Children Medical Center from August 2017 to April 2019. The prenatal MRI, postnatal CT, and pathological examination data were analyzed to summarize the image features of fetal CMN using descriptive statistical analysis.Results:(1) The total number of deliveries in the setting during the same period was 57 716, and the incidence of CMN was 0.005% (3/57 716). All the cases were male and born through cesarean section due to polyhydramnios for case 1 and 2 and sudden fetal distress, fetal pericardial effusion with enlarged mass in the third trimester for case 3. (2) Prenatal MRI examination found that the lesions in case 1 and 3 were located in the left kidney, and in the right kidney in case 2. The tumors in the three cases were all around with clear borders and hyperintense signal on T2-weighed imaging (T2WI). Iso-signal on T1WI was noted for case 1 and 2, a slightly hypointense signal on T1-weighed imaging (T1WI), and a hyperintense signal on diffused weighed imaging were noted for case 3. (3) Postnatal CT plain scan showed uniform density tumor in cases 1 and 2 with "packing sign" in CT enhancement. Non-uniform density, internal, larger and high-density bleeding tumor was found in case 3, and the CT enhancement manifested as nodular, non-uniform, and intratumoral bleeding. (4) Postoperative pathological examination revealed that cases 1 and 2 were classic types, and case 3 was cellular type.Conclusions:In this study, the prenatal MRI characteristic of CMN is a uniform signal, iso-signal on T1WI for classic type and non-uniform signal, and reduced signal on T1WI for cellular type. In classic type cases, postnatal CT enhancement showed a "packing sign." In contrast, in cellular type cases, the CT plain scan is manifested as non-uniform, intratumoral bleeding, and the enhancement pattern showed nodular and non-uniform enhancement. However, the results of this study is limited due to the small sample size and studies with larger sample size is needed in the future.

Objective To investigate the prenatal imaging features of fetal congenital esophageal atresia and to further evaluate the value of MRI and ultrasound scan in the same condition.Methods This study recruited 12 singleton gravidas whose fetuses were initially suspected with congenital esophageal atresia by prenatal ultrasound scan and then confirmed by surgery and/or upper gastrointestinal angiography after birth at Guangzhou Women and Children's Medical Center from May 2011 to May 2017.Imaging features of prenatal MRI and ultrasonography of the 12 fetuses were retrospectively analyzed.Differences in imaging findings of these two methods were analyzed by Chi-square test.Results All 12 women received prenatal ultrasound examination and eight of them underwent MRI scan when fetal congenital esophageal atresia was suggested by ultrasound.Both ultrasound and MRI were capable of identifing polyhydramnios and absent or small stomach bubble (12/12 and 8/8,respectively).However,MRI was superior to ultrasound in detecting "pouch sign "/"oral filling sign" or poor filling of small intestine (7/8 vs 3/12 and 8/8 vs 0/12,x2 were 7.500 and 20.000,both P＜0.01).While,no statistical difference was shown in detecting curved tracheal between MRI and ultrasound (2/8 vs 0/12,x2=3.333,P=0.067).For Gross Ⅰ or Gross Ⅲ congenital esophageal atresia fetuses,no statistically significant difference was found in their imaging features (all P＞0.05).The total detection rates after 32 weeks of gestation of Gross Ⅰ and Gross Ⅲ cases were both 3/6.Conclusions Prenatal MRI is a vital supplement to ultrasound due to its high display rate of characterized features of congenital esophageal atresia.Thus,the combined use of ultrasound and MRI is of great importance for prenatal diagnosis of this fetal abnormality.

Objective:To analyze survival in patients with advanced oral cancer from prospective clinical trials. Methods:From 2008 to 2010, 256 patients with oral cancer at clinical stage III/IVA were randomly categorized into two groups. Patients in the experi-mental group received neo-adjuvant chemotherapy, surgery, and post-operative radiation, and patients in the control group underwent surgery and post-operative radiation. All patients were routinely followed-up after treatments. Survival was analyzed using Kaplan–Meier method and log-rank test, and differences were considered statistically significant at P value lower than 0.05. Results: Each group was composed of 128 patients. With the median follow-up period of 60 months, the 5-year overall survival rate was 61.7%and the disease-free survival rate was 53.9%. The overall survival rate (P=0.350) and the disease-free survival rate (P=0.160) were not sig-nificantly different between the experimental and control groups. Patients with positive pathological response to neo-adjuvant chemo-therapy exhibited significantly improved overall survival (P＜0.05). Conclusion:Radical surgery should be emphasized to improve the prognosis of oral cancer. Functional reconstruction could also improve the quality of life and survival of patients. Despite that neo-adju-vant chemotherapy could not improve the survival of patients with advanced oral cancer in entirety, it could benefit patients exhibiting positive treatment responses.

Objective To compare the prognosis of different surgical procedures and to find the relatively safe and effective treatment for severe jejunoileal atresia(sJA).Method From January 2007 to June 2018,children with sJA receiving different surgical procedures in our hospital were retrospectively reviewed.Their clinical data were analyzed,including the survival rate,complication rate,unplanned re-operation rate and postoperative nutritional status.Result A total of 130 patients were enrolled in this study.According to the different types of surgical procedures,the patients were assigned into primary anastomosis group (58 cases,44.6％),Mikulicz double barrel ileostomy group (17 cases,13.1％) and Bishop-Koop anastomosis group (55 cases,42.3％).The overall mortality rate was 6.2％ (8/130).No significant differences existed in mortality rates among the three groups (P＞0.05).The incidences of gastrointestinal complications in primary anastomosis group (70.6％,12/17) and Mikulicz group (70.6％,12/17) were both higher Bishop-Koop group (34.5％,19/55),the differences were statistically significant (P＜0.05).The unplanned re-operation rates were 34.5％ (20/58) in the primary anastomosis group and 17.6％ (3/17) in the Mikulicz group,both higher than the Bishop-Koop group (3.6％,2/55),the differences were also statistically significant (P＜0.05).Multivariate analysis showed that the risk of complications in the primary anastomosis group (OR=3.434,95％CI 1.392～8.471) and Mikulicz group (OR=5.933,95％CI 1.467～23.991) were higher than the Bishop-Koop group.The risk of unplanned re-operation in the primary anastomosis group was 12.422 times as the Bishop-Koop group (95％CI 2.535～60.877).No significant differences existed between the Mikulicz group and the Bishop-Koop group in the risk of unplanned re-operation (P＞0.05).The weight for age (Z-score) in the Bishop-Koop group (-1.4,95％CI-2.0～-0.8) at the stoma closure time was better than the Mikulicz group (-3.2,95％CI-4.4～-2.0),the difference was statistically significant (P＜0.01).Conclusion Bishop-Koop anastomosis has lower complication rate and lower unplanned re-operation rate in the treatment of sJA.The nutritional status of children who received Bishop-Koop anastomosis is better than Mikulicz double barrel ileostomy at the stoma closure time.Bishop-Koop anastomosis is relatively safe and effective for sJA patients.

Objective To study the effect of multi-disciplinary team (MDT) management on the outcome in neonates with omphalocele.Method A retrospective non-randomized controlled clinical study was conducted.Neonates who were diagnosed as omphalocele and admitted to the surgical neonatal intensive care unit of the Guangzhou Women and Children Medical Center from December 2010 to December 2017 were collected.Because MDT was established in December 2014,infants were assigned into non-MDT group and MDT group according to their dates of admission.The characteristics and outcomes between non-MDT group and MDT group were compared using x2,t-test or rank-sum test.Multivariate analysis was performed by Logistic regression.Result A total of 91 neonates were included in the study,50 were in non-MDT group and 41 were in MDT group.The mortality in MDT group (2.4％,1/41) was lower than that in non-MDT group (18.0％,9/50),the difference was statistically significant (P ＜ 0.05).The median time of mechanical ventilation of giant omphalocele in non-MDT group (18.3 hours) was longer than that in MDT group (41.7 hours),the difference was also statistically significant (P ＜ 0.05).After adjusting for the associated confounding risk factors,the risk of death in non-MDT group was 54 times higher than that in MDTgroup (OR=54.19,95％CI2.64 ～1 113.49,P＜0.05).Conclusion There was significant association between the MDT management and the decreased risk of death of omphalocele.
