Abstract： Objective　To comprehend the gastroenteritis outbreak triggered by sapovirus (SaV) in a middle school located in Chaozhou City in 2022, ultimately providing a scholarly reference for the implementation of preventive and control measures against contagious diarrhea within educational institutions. Methods　Descriptive epidemiological methods were employed to analyze the epidemiological characteristics of the outbreak. A 1∶3 case-control study was conducted to identify potential correlation factors. Anal swab specimens from students and kitchen workers, food samples from the cafeteria, and environmental swab samples were collected for nucleic acid PCR testing of Sapovirus, Norovirus, Staphylococcus aureus, five types of enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli, Salmonella, and Bacillus cereus. One SaV-positive nucleic acid sample was randomly selected for VP1 capsid protein sequencing. Results　A total of 148 sapovirus cases and 6 asymptomatic infections were reported in this outbreak. The predominant clinical manifestations were vomiting (83.1%), nausea (38.5%), and vertigo (24.3%), with no fever symptoms reported. The peak incidence was recorded on March 20, showing a propagative and point source exposure pattern. Cases were distributed across 83.3% of the classes in the school, with the highest incidence rate of 32.69% in Class 311. The case-control study revealed that having lunch on campus on March 18 was a significant correlation factor for the disease (OR=4.17, 95%CI: 1.58-11.00). A total of 43 students and 23 kitchen workers anal swab specimens, 7 food samples, and 9 cafeteria environmental swab samples were collected. Of these, 20 students and 6 kitchen workers anal swab specimens tested positive for SaV nucleic acid, while the remaining samples returned negative results. Gene sequencing indicated the presence of the GI.6 genotype. Hygiene investigation exposed improper food handling practices among some kitchen workers. Conclusions　This outbreak was caused by a GI.6 genotype SaV infection, with exposure in the cafeteria on March 18 being the primary contributing factor for the outbreak and subsequent spread.

BACKGROUND:In literatures, the recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 (rhBMP-2) loaded microcapsules can be fabricated by double emulsion solvent evaporation method with different organic solvents, such as methylene chloride, ethyl acetate or their mixture. But so far it is not determined yet which one is better. OBJECTIVE: To optimize the preparation method of microcapsules encapsulating rhBMP-2 and to compare the effects of different organic solvents on the microcapsules. METHODS:Polylactic acid-polyethylene glycol-polylactic acid copolymer as microcapsules was used to prepare rhBMP-2 loaded microcapsules with double emulsion solvent evaporation method. Four kinds of organic solvents, methylene chloride (group A), mixture of methylene chloride and ethyl acetate (group B), ethyl acetate (group C) and acetyl acetone (group D) were chosen as oil phases to compare their effects on microcapsule's morphology, diameter, and encapsulation efficiency. Passage 3 bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels from rats were co-cultured with prepared microcapsules for 14 days, and then alkaline phosphatase activity was detected. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Compared with the other organic solvents, dichloromethane could cause microcapsules with the smaler and more uniform shape (4-10 microns) and the highest encapsulation efficiency; the microcapsules prepared by mixture of methylene chloride and ethyl acetate had relatively wide size distribution and moderate encapsulation efficiency; the microcapsules prepared by acetylacetone were difficult to form and keep the bioactivity of rhBMP-2. After cultured with rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cels for 14 days, the alkaline phosphatase activity in groups A, B and C was significantly higher than that in group D and there was no significant difference between group A and group B; the alkaline phosphatase activity in groups A and B was significantly higher than that in group C (P< 0.05). The results show the rhBMP-2-loaded microcapsules prepared by methylene chloride as organic solvent have good shape, high encapsulation efficiency, and good biological activity.

Objective To study the abnormalities of noninvasive urodynamios in early diabetes eystopathy (DCP) and provide diagnosis evidences in its early stage. Methods According to the disease course (less or more than 1 year), 85 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) were divided into new lydiagnosed diabetic group and non-newly diagnosed diabetic group. Thirty healthy cases were involved in normal control group. All of them were checked with the technology of noninvasive urodynamics to measure maximal flow rate, average flow rate, the volume leading to first bladder sensation and residual urine volume. Results As to the 32 newly diagnosed diabetic group, maximal flow rate was (18.4±6.9) ml/s, and average flow rate was (10.6 ± 5.3) ml/s, 18 cases were detected to have bladder residual urine, with the average residual urine volume of (13.2 ± 17.3) ml, and the DCP detection rate was 56.2%(18/32). As to the 53 non-newly diagnosed diabetic group, maximal flow rate was (14.7 ± 6.6) ml/s, and average flow rate was (9.5±4.7) ml/s,38 cases were detected to have bladder residual urine, with the average residual urine volume of (19.3 ± 18.4) ml, and the DCP detection rate was 71.7%(38/53). There was no residual urine detected in normal control group. Their maximal flow rate was (25.7 ± 5.9) ml/s, and average flow rate was (18.0 ± 4.9)ml/s. Compared with that in normal control group, maximal flow rate, average flow rote and residual urine volume decreased in both newly diagnosed diabetic group and non-newly diagnosed diabetic group(P< 0.01). As compared with that in newly diagnosed diabetic group, maximal flow rate in non-newly diagnosed diabetic group decreased obviously (P< 0.05). Conclusions The abnormalities of urodynamics may happen in the early stage of diabetes, and maximal flow rate may be as the most sensitive index. With the new technology of noninvasive urodynamies, we DCP can be diagnosed in early stage and evaluated the function of bladder dynamically.

Objective To explore the feasibility of employing a risk category system in evaluating the treatment outcome of locoregionally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) treated by intensitymodulated radiation therapy (IMRT) alone,and offering evidence for relevant perspective studies.Methods Totally 185 locoregionally advanced NPC patients were divided into high-risk and low-risk groups for evaluation and comparison.The patients who met at least one of the following criteria were defined as high-risk group and others as low-risk group:GTVnx ＞ 30 cm3;Clinical stage T4N2M0;multiple neck node metastases with 1 node size ＞4 cm,and N3 with any T stage.Results With a median follow up of 110.9 months (6.7-152.4 months),the 5-year overall survival,locoregional relapse-free survival,distant metastasis-free survival for the high-risk group vs.the low-risk group were 61.0％ vs.90.5％ (x2 =30.298,P＜0.05),78.3％ vs.91.5％ (x2 =6.352,P＜0.05)and 71.6％ vs.92.0％ (x2 =16.346,P ＜0.05).Conclusions As a simple and practicable method,the risk category system is helpful for discriminating locoregionally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma with different risk-group of treatment failure and in further perspective clinical research.

BACKGROUND: Thoracolumbar burst fracture Dennis type B does not have significant damage in the intervertebral discs of the inferior vertebral body. To reduce fusion segment and remain normal intercalated disc, single discectomy (damaged vertebral body and supervisor vertebral body) is proposed, but because of the damage to the vertebral body, implanted screw is easy to loose following excising partial vertebral body, even cannot be fixed. However, it is still unknown whether implanted screw in the inferior vertebral body of the damaged vertebral body was stabilized using two segment discectomy with fixation.OBJECTIVE: To analyze the feasibility of single segmental spinal interbody fusion with bisegment fixation for thoracolumbar burst fracture type B.DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: The randomized controlled in vitro study was conducted at the Laboratory of Biomechanics, Southern Medical University from June 2007 to June 2008.MATERIALS: A total of 20 fresh freezing 7-9 months pig samples (T_(13)?L_3 segment) were used, comprising 10 integral samples and 10 L_1 type B thoracolumbar burst fracture samples prepared by pre-injury and weight dropping technique.METHODS: Pig fresh thoracolumbar specimens from T_(13)?L_3 were collected to create models of type B thoracolumbar burst fracture. There were 4 groups in this study. Ten of them were selected as intact group (n=10) (fresh pig T_(13)?L_3 segment). T_1 vertebral endplate pre-injury and weight dropping technique and incremental trauma approach were used. Denis' type B burst fracture was produced, and ten of them were selected as unstable group (n=10). Firstly, unstable group was decompressed by discectomy and semivertebraectomy in upper half of the vertebral body, single level was fused with iliac and U-FRONT anterior thoracolumbar system were placed between T_(14) and L_2, as single discectomy with fixation group (n=10). Then lower disc of injury vertebra discectomy and vertebraectomy, fused with iliac U-FRONT anterior thoracolumbar system were placed between T_(14) and L_2, as two segment discectomy with fixation group (n=10). The bone graft was longer 1 mm than the bone graft region.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The flexion, extension, right/left lateral bending, and right/left axial rotation range of motion (ROM) of T_(14)?L_2 were measured in each group on the spinal three-motional test machine at 10 N穖.RESULTS: The flexion, extension, right/left lateral bending, and right/left axial rotation were not stable in the unstable group.ROM was significantly increased in the unstable group compared with the intact group (P< 0.01). The primary stability was significantly elevated in the single discectomy with fixation and two segment discectomy with fixation groups. The flexion, extension, right/left lateral bending, and right/left axial rotation ROM were significantly reduced in the single discectomy with fixation and two segment discectomy with fixation groups compared with the unstable group (P < 0.05). The flexion, extension, right/left lateral bending ROM was significantly decreased in the two groups compared with the intact group, but axial rotation ROM was significantly increased (P< 0.05). Axial rotation ROM was smaller in the single discectomy with fixation group compared with the two segment discectomy with fixation group (P < 0.05).CONCLUSION: Single segmental spinal interbody fusion with bisegment fixation for thoracolumbar burst fracture type B had a good immediate stability in flexion, extension, lateral bending motion. Compared with traditional partial corpectomy L_1 between the caudal and cranial endplate of the adjacent vertebrae with bisegmental fixation, it had a better immediate stability in axial rotation.

Objective To evaluate the early detection of diabetic cystopathy(DCP)with the technology of noninvasive urodynamics.Methods 70 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus(DM)and 30 normal control subjects were checked with the technology of noninvasive urodynamics.Based on their disease course of less or mole than 5 years.the DM patients were divided into two groups.Maximal flow rate,average flow rate,the volume leading to first bladder sensation and residual urine volume were measured by using noninvasive urodynamic technology.Results Among the 70 DM patients,34 were detected to have bladder residual urine,so the DCP detection rate was 48.6%.In the patients with DCP,the average residual urine volume Was 7-139 ml(30.1±27.1)ml,while there was no residual urine in the normal control group.As compared with the normal control group,maximal flow rate and average flow rate were decreased in all the patients with DM and those with DCP(P＜0.01).After follow up of the disease,the patients with a course of more than five years of disease control had even lower maximal flow rate and average flow rate.Conclusion Maximal flow rate decrease and bladder residual urine detected with the technology of noninvasive urodynamics may be widely used in early detection and early diagnosis of DCP.

After treatment for 3 months in the patients with impaired glucose tolerance (IGT), plasma glucose, insulin and homeostasis model assessment for insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) were decreased both in rosiglitazone therapy group and in the group treated with rosiglitazone combined with body weight control.Those parameters in the latter group were decreased more significantly than those in the former.Rosiglitazone ameliorates the insulin resistance in patients with IGT, which is further improved when combined with body weight control.

Objective To explore bladder carcinoma eystectomy and orthotopic ileal neobladder postoperative,the impact of new bladder on upper urinary function.Methods Twenty-eight patients with muscle invasive bladder urothelial carcinoma undergoing cystectomy W-shaped orthotopic ileal neobladder in Department of Urology of the Nuclear Industry 215 Hospital of Shaanxi Province(Mar.2006-Jun.2010)were investigated.All patients were followed for over 2 years.Assessment items included creatinine determination,urinary B-Ultrasound determination of the amount of residual urine volume and hydronephrotic cystography.Results Four weeks after the operations,all patients were removed bladder catheter angiography and found no obvious contrast extravasation.After 3 months mild hydronephrosis was found in 8 cases (28.6％),including 2 cases (7.1％) before surgery associated with hydronephrosis,the difference being not statistically significant(x2=0.49,P ＞ 0.05).The mild hydronephrosis was found in 5 cases (17.9％) 2 years postoperation,whithout statistically significant difference compared with preoperation (x2 =0.22,P ＞ 0.05).Preoperative serum creatinine was (72.92 ± 14.58) mmol/L,while 3 months after surgery serum creatinine was (83.42 ± 15.18) mmol/L (t =-6.43,P ＜ 0.05).Preoperative and postoperative serum creatinine was within the normal range.Two years after surgery serum creatinine was (82.50 ± 14.39) mmol/L,with significant difference compared with that of preoperation (t =-4.67,P ＜ 0.05),but were in the normal range,no clinical significance,the postoperative 3 months bladder capacity (160 ± 23) mL,while 2 years later bladder capacity residual urine volume of (58.7 ± 9.7) mL and (430 ± 21) mL,residual urine volume (61.3 ± 37.1) mL(t =-0.37,P＞ 0.05).Conclusion Orthotopie ileal bladder ideal substitute for postoperative cystectomy with less impact on the upper urinary tract function.
