Chinese Journal of Biologicals 2023;36(12):1455-1464
Objective To investigate the infection effects of different strains(Prototype,Delta,Beta,and Omicron BA. 1)of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2(SARS-CoV-2)on transgenic mice K18-hACE2 expressing angiotensinconverting enzyme 2(ACE2)by nasal drip.MethodsMice were challenged with each strain of different gradients of doses by nasal drip,which were monitored for body mass and survival daily for 6 d in Beta group and 14 d in the other three groups. The median lethal dose(LD_(50))was calculated by IBM SPSS Statistics 26 analysis software,and the virulence of different SARS-CoV-2 strains were compared by detection of the viral nucleic acid loads of lung,brain and turbinate tissues and the lesion of lung tissues.ResultsBeta strain showed the strongest virulence and the highest lethality,and the lowest dose(1 CCID_(50))was 100% lethal with a LD_(50)less than 1 CCID_(50);The LD_(50) of Delta,Prototype and Omicron BA.1 strains were 0. 52,0. 60 and 52. 92 CCID50respectively. The copy number of viral nucleic acid in lung tissue of mice infected with different strains elevated with the increase of challenge dose,and the copy number of viral nucleic acid in brain tissue of dead mice reached 10~8~ 10~(11) copies/mL. The lung tissues of mice infected with different strains of different doses showed different degrees of pathological damage.ConclusionThe virulence of different SARS-CoV-2 strains in K18-hACE2 mice from high to low were Beta,Delta,Prototype and Omicron BA.1.

5.Correlation between hematocrit and early neurological deterioration in patients with acute ischemic stroke on admission
International Journal of Cerebrovascular Diseases 2016;24(12):1068-1072
Objective To investigate the value of early hematocrit (Hct) level in predicting early neurological deterioration (END) in patients with acute ischemic stroke. Methods The patients with acute ischemic stroke within 24 h of onset were enrolled prospectively. They were divided into low Hct, normal Hct, and high Hct according to the quantile of the measured Hct. END was defined as an increase of ≥2 of the National Institute of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score or ≥1 of the motor item score within 5 d after admission compared with the baseline. The vascular risk factors, clinical features, baseline NIHSS score, infarct size, and laboratory test variables were compared between the END group and the non -END group. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to identify the independent risk factors for END. Results A total of 216 patients with acute ischemic stroke were enrolled, including 128 males (59.26%). Their mean age was 67.40 ±14.12 years. Sixty-two patients (28.70%) experienced END. The normal ranges of Hct in male and female were 40.12%-46.35% and 38.32%-44.17%, respectively. Univariate analysis indicated that there were significantly differences in baseline NIHSS score ( P =0.001), fasting glucose (P =0.030), C reactive protein (CRP) (P =0.041), and the proportions of different Hct levels between the END group and the non-END group (P =0.023). The END incidences in patients with high -level Hct (40.0%) and low –level Hct (35.2%) were significantly higher than that in the normal Hct patients (20 .4%), but there was no significant difference between the high-level and low -level Hct patients ( P = 0.690). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that theigh-level Hct (odds ratio 2.460, 95% confidence interval 1.146-5.283; P =0.021) and the baseline NIHSS score (odds ratio 1.070, 95% confidence interval 1.014-1.129; P = 0.013) were the independent risk factors for END. Conclusion The elevated Hct in patients with acute ischemic stroke are susceptible to END.
