OBJECTIVE To understand the status quo for hospital infection hospital infection to provide a scientific basis. METHODS A cross-sectional survey was taken combined with the hospital bedside investigation and records investigation. RESULTS In 1033 cases,the prevalence rate was 3.87%,and the infected sites were the respiratory site,superficial incision,skin and soft tissue. Utilization rate of anti-bacterial drugs was 60.31%,the pathagen detection rate before treatment was low only 7.73%. CONCLUSIONS Prevalence rate survey method is simple and reliable,it may be the basic reflect of hospital infection. Further strengthening the management of invasive operations,regulateing the rational use of antibiotics status quo,improving the detection rate of pathogens and reduceing preventive medication and antibiotic usage are all evitable.

Objective To investigate the diagnostic value of endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) for duodenal cysts.Methods Clinical manifestations, results of conventional gastroscopy and EUS, as well as follow-up, of patients with duodenal cysts were retrospectively analyzed.Results A total of 105 patients with duodenal cysts presented with no lesion-related symptoms, but displayed characteristic imaging changes under EUS, which could reveal the origin, size and nature of duodenal cysts, and differentiate it from other submucosal lesions.A maximum follow-up of 5 years showed no changes in duodenal cysts.Conclusion Duodenal cyst is a benign disease, and EUS plays a very important role in diagnosis of the disease.

convalescents, and to screen for broad-spectrum neutralizing antibodies against the SARS-CoV-2 RBD. Methods Using biotinylated RBD as a molecular probe, flow cytometry was employed to perform single-cell sorting of B cells from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of convalescents. The obtained B cells were lysed and subjected to reverse transcription, followed by nested PCR amplification of the heavy and light chains of antibodies was conducted using random primers. The amplified products were cloned into corresponding expression vectors, and the respective matched heavy-light chain plasmids were co-transfected into 293F cells for expression. Monoclonal antibodies were then purified using Protein A column chromatography. Neutralization experiments were conducted with the wild-type (WT) pseudovirus, and antibodies with IC50<0.1 μg/mL were selected for further testing of neutralizing breadth and potency against the wild-type (WT), Beta variant (B.1.351), Delta variant (B.1.617.2), and currently prevalent pseudovirus strains (XBB, BA.5, BF.7). Results A total of 21 RBD-specific monoclonal B cells were obtained from two recovered patients, resulting in the isolation of 13 pairs of antibody light/heavy chains. Nine antibodies were successfully expressed, with P1-A1, P1-B6, and P1-B9 exhibiting IC50 values below 0.1 μg/mL against the pseudovirus of the wild-type strain (WT). Specifically, P1-B6 effectively neutralized the wild-type strain (WT), Beta variant (B.1.351), and Delta variant (B.1.617.2), with IC50 values reaching 0.01 μg/mL. P1-B9 demonstrated effective neutralization against the wild-type strain (WT), Beta variant (B.1.351), Delta variant (B.1.617.2), and Gamma variant (P.1) pseudoviruses, with IC50 values of 0.42 μg/mL, 0.63 μg/mL, 0.28 μg/mL, and 2.50 μg/mL, respectively. Additionally, P1-B6 exhibited good neutralization against BA.5 and BF.7 pseudoviruses, with IC50 values of 0.06 μg/mL and 0.09 μg/mL, respectively. Conclusions Infection with the SARS-CoV-2 WT strain can induce the generation of neutralizing antibodies with broad-spectrum activity. Generating these broadly neutralizing antibodies does not require an excessively high somatic hypermutation. The obtained antibodies can be used as candidates for SARS-CoV-2 diagnosis and prevention.

Progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML) is a rare and lethal central nervous demyelinating disease caused by JC polyomavirus (JCV), particularly in patients with impaired immune system. The variation of JCV plays an important role in the pathogenesis of PML, including the recombination of non-coding regulatory region (NCCR), which is closely related to binding sites of transcription factors and affect the level of gene transcription. Nucleotide mutations in VP1 region determine the antigenicity and receptor specificity of JCV, play an important role in cell adsorption, immune-mediation and pathogenicity. In addition, immune cells are also involved in the pathogenesis of PML. T lymphocytes can recognize virus antigens, clear JCV, which are directly related to the prognosis of PML. B lymphocytes can serve as latent sites of JCV, and participate in viral transmission, replication, and coordination of the expression of transcription factors. This paper summarizes the roles of JCV variation and immune cells in pathogenesis of PML.

Objective:To analyze the characteristics of viral isolation and unique recombinant from untreated HIV-1 patients infected through sexual transmission and injection drug use, so as to provide evidence for understanding the biological characteristics and precise prevention and control of HIV-1 infection in different transmission routes.Methods:In view of the different HIV-1 transmission risks, newly diagnosed untreated HIV-1 patients from Beijing, Guangxi and Sichuan were carefully selected. Venous blood was collected to detect the viral load and CD4 + T cell count, and peripheral blood lymphocytes were isolated for virus isolation. Viral RNAs were extracted from the virus supernatant, and the near full-length genome sequences were obtained using in-house method, then the recombination patterns were determined. Results:Among the 65 HIV-1 infection, 32(49.2%), 20(30.8%) and 13(20.0%) were infected via men who have sex with men (MSM), heterosexual and injection drug use (IDU), respectively; genotypes mainly included 26(40.0%) CRF07_ BC, 23(35.4%) CRF01_ AE, and 9(13.8%) unique recombinant types (URFs). A total of 46 HIV-1 clinical strains were isolated. The positive rate of HIV-1 isolation was significantly negatively correlated with CD4 + T cells ( X2=4.22, P=0.04), but positively correlated with viral load ( X2=22.4, P<0.001); the multi-variate generalized estimating equations(GEE) model analysis of HIV-1 P24 antigen content showed similar result. In addition, GEE model showed a positive correlation between viral P24 antigen content and virus-producing culture time (52.14, 95% CI: 9.42~94.87, P=0.017). Viral growth curve analysis showed that the level of viral P24 antigen in MSM Group was significantly higher than that in heterosexual group and IDU group (adjusted P values were p<0.01 and P<0.05, respectively), on the 14th day after culture. The proportion of URFs in MSM Group was higher than that in heterosexual group, and the recombinant breakpoints in MSM Group were more than that in heterosexual group. Conclusions:MSM population was more sensitive to HIV-1 virus isolation; there was unique diversity of recombinant forms of HIV-1 among those with sexually transmitted infections, especially in the MSM population.

Objective: To observe the parameters of the results of suppression head impulse paradigm (SHIMP) in healthy adults, and to provide reference for evaluating vestibular oculomotor reflex function in patients with peripheral vertigo. Methods: Fifty healthy adults, 22 males and 28 females, aged from 23-65 years, with an average age of (38.5±11.6) years, were recruited from January to March 2018. Parameters provided by the video head pulse software included the gains, the latency and the peak velocity of saccades, and comparison was made with head impulse paradigm (HIMP). Results: All subjects were elicited anti-compensatory saccades in SHIMP. The normal values of left and right gains were 1.02 and 1.10 in HIMP, and 0.93 and 1.01 in SHIMP respectively. The left and right saccades latency were (201.1± 50.8)ms and (187.0± 42.9)ms, and the peak saccadic velocity were (302.7±58.5)°/s and (291.5±46.5)°/s in SHIMP; there were small but significant difference between two sides about gains in HIMP and SHIMP, as well as latency in SHIMP(P<0.05); there were small but significant difference between HIMP and SHIMP about gains in ipsilateral(P<0.01); there were no significant difference between two sides about peak saccadic velocity in SHIMP(P>0.05). Conclusions SHIMP can be used for the examination of vestibular oculomotor reflex function in adult population. It is easy to be operated and is convenient for clinical application. Combined with head pulse test, the function of the semicircular canal can be evaluated together.
