We studied the epidemiological characteristics of human bocavirus 4 (HBoV4) in children with a- cute gastroenteritis in Lanzhou (China). A total of 331 stool specimens were collected from children aged < 5 years with acute diarrhea at the First Hospital of Lanzhou University between July 2012 and June 2013. Specimens of HBoV were identified by nested polymerase chain reaction assays. Compared with related sequences in GenBank, the HBoV-positive strain isolated in the present study was,quite surprisingly, a rare genotype named HBoV4. This strain was a typical HBoV4,with high levels of nucleotide and amino acid homology to the Thailand strain, JQ267789 (98.9% and 98.7%, respectively), and the USA strain, GQ506568 (97.6% and 97.4%, respectively). This is the first report of HBoV4 as the causative agent for acute gastroenteritis in pediatric patients in China. This strain is one of two genotypes of HBoV that are currently circulating.

Objective To study the main genes molecular characteristics and evolutionary relationship of porcine and human group A rotavirus (GARV) type G9 in Hebei Lulong region.Methods A stool specimen from diarrhea piglet marked as LLP48 in 2008 in Hebei Lulong region,which was G9 GARV positive and 4 stool specimens collected from hospitalized children with diarrhea under the age of five from 2009 to 2011 in Lulong region which were type G9 GARV positive were selected and the main genes were amplified by RT-PCR.After sequencing,the obtained genes were analyzed through MEGA,DNAStar software and other biological sequence alignment,homology and phylogenetic analyses were performed.Results Porcine GARV LLP48 in Lulong region and four strains of Lulong human GARV were highly homologous in VP7,VP6,NSP4 and NSP2 gene fragments,and nucleotide and amino acid homology respectively was 89.4％-94％ and 94.8％-98.2％ ; VP4 fragment of the nucleotide homology (amino acid) is low,71.4％-71.6％ (68.2％-69.0％).Phylogenetic analysis showed that LLP48 genes encoding VP7,VP6,NSP4 and NSP2 were closely related to the strain derived from human source,and VP4 gene closely related to the strains derived from porcine source.Conclusion Lulong porcine GARV LLP48 strain may be a natural reassorted product of porcine VP4 and human VP7,VP6,NSP4 and NSP2.

SARS-CoV-2 can cause multiple organ injuries in some susceptible people in a short time, which seriously threatens the health and safety of people, and intensive care and multiple extracorporeal organ support are important means of treatment. Although many experts’ consensus and clinical guidelines have been published, a series of clinical problemsstill exist during the treatment procedure, and no consensushas not been reached until now. Therefore,in this paper wemake some reflections and explorations to provide experience and help for clinicians.
