Objective To screen and identify B cell epitopes in SAG1, SAG2, SAG3, GRA1, GRA6 and P35 antigens of Toxoplasma gondii. Methods The indexes such as hydrophilicity, accessibility, flexibility, secondary structure and polarity of the 6 antigen moleculars above mentioned were analyzed by BioSun system. Two B cell epitopes with high antigenicity from each antigen molecular were selected, and the total twelve pairs of oligonucleotide chains were designed according to the 12 B cell epitopes’ sequence and synthesized, then cloned into plasmid pET-32c. The 12 fragment B cell epitopes were expressed and the expressed fusion proteins were identified with Western blot. Results Twelve B cell epitopes from 6 Toxoplasma antigens (two from each antigen) were predicted and selected. The epitope genes were successfully cloned into pET-32c and expressed. Western blot results showed that 3 of 12 expressed fusion proteins could be recognized by the immunized rabbit sera with soluble antigen of Toxoplasma gondii, but not by the unimmunized rabbit sera Conclusion Three B cell epitopes of Toxoplasma[with potential diagnostic value are obtained.

Objective To analyze the characteristics of static balance and limits of stability (LOS) in patients with cervical vertigo (CV). Methods From January, 2020 to August, 2021, 30 CV patients in our hospital (vertigo group) and 30 healthy people (control group) were selected and tested with PRO-KIN system, under the conditions of eyes open and closed. The standard deviation of the vertical and horizontal amplitude, the mean of vertical and horizontal sway velocities, the area of the movement, the length of the movement, and LOS at eight directions, The Romberg ratios of the area and the length were caculated. Results All the indicators of the static balance were higher under eyes closed than under eyes open in both groups (|Z| > 2.138, P < 0.05); whether under the eyes open or closed, the static balance indicators were higher in the vertigo group than in the control group (|Z| > 2.004, P < 0.05), except for the mean of horizontal sway velocities (|Z| < 1.026, P > 0.05). The LOS and total LOS completion percentage in the front (upper right, right above, upper left) were lower in the vertigo group than in the control group (|Z| > 2.240, P < 0.05). Conclusion The static balance abilities decrease for CV patients, and the balance control depends on visual compensation. The range of LOS reduces, means a higher risk of falling.

Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli（ETEC）infection can induce watery diarrhea，leading to dehydration，electrolyte disturbance，and even death in severe cases. Recombinant B subunit/inactivated whole-cell cholera（rBS/WC）vaccine is effective in preventing ETEC infectious diarrhea. On the basis of the latest evidence on etiology and epidemiology of ETEC，as well as the effectiveness，safety，and health economics of rBS/WC vaccine，National Clinical Research Center for Child Health（The Children’s Hospital，Zhejiang University School of Medicine）and Zhejiang Provincial Center for Disease Control and Prevention invited experts to develop expert consensus on rBS/WC vaccine in prevention of ETEC infectious diarrhea. It aims to provide the clinicians and vaccination professionals with guidelines on using rBS/WC vaccine to reduce the incidence of ETEC infectious diarrhea.
