Objective:To investigate the molecular epidemiological characteristics of coxsackievirus A16 (CVA16) in Fujian province from 2020 to 2023.Methods:The epidemiological characteristics of CVA16 associated hand, food and mouth disease (HFMD) in Fujian province from 2020 to 2023 was analyzed. The complete VP1 gene of CVA16 was amplified by RT-PCR and then sequenced, and genetic evolution was analyzed by MEGA X and other softwares.Results:From 2020 to 2023, there were 13 120 cases of HFMD in Fujian province, and the proportion of HFMD which caused by CVA16 was 16.5% (2 160/13 120). From 2020 to 2023, the proportion of accounted cases was 4.7% (94/2 019), 14.1% (457/3 243), 47.6% (1 521/3 199) and 1.9% (88/4 659) respectively. HFMD caused by CVA16 was mainly concentrated in children aged 1 to 5 years, and most of them were 3 years old. The genetic evolution and genotype analysis of 92 complete VP1 gene sequences obtained from 2020 to 2023 showed that the genetic distance between CVA16 strains in Fujian province and the prototype strain was far away. The CVA16 genotype in Fujian province from 2020 to 2023 has three clusters of B1a, B1b and B1c, among which the composition ratio of B1a and B1b in Fujian province in 2020 was 40% and 60% respectively. In 2021, B1a and B1b accounted for 81.8% and 18.2% respectively. Only B1a in 2022; in 2023, there were B1a, B1b and B1c, which respectively accounted for 44.4%, 7.4% and 48.2%. During the period from January to September, B1a was the main cluster. After October we observed an emergence of B1c cluster, which had never been found in Fujian province and was rare in China, was detected and became the dominant cluster.Conclusions:The evolutionary cluster of CVA16 dominant changed from B1b in 2020 to B1a in 2021-2023. After October 2023, the newly discovered B1c became the dominant cluster in Fujian province.

Objective To investigate the distribution and antimicrobial resistance profiles of the common pathogens isolated from urine from 2015 to 2021 in the CHINET Antimicrobial Resistance Surveillance Program.Methods The bacterial strains were isolated from urine and identified routinely in 51 hospitals across China in the CHINET Antimicrobial Resistance Surveillance Program from 2015 to 2021.Antimicrobial susceptibility was determined by Kirby-Bauer method,automatic microbiological analysis system and E-test according to the unified protocol.Results A total of 261 893 nonduplicate strains were isolated from urine specimen from 2015 to 2021,of which gram-positive bacteria accounted for 23.8％(62 219/261 893),and gram-negative bacteria 76.2％(199 674/261 893).The most common species were E.coli(46.7％),E.faecium(10.4％),K.pneumoniae(9.8％),E.faecalis(8.7％),P.mirabilis(3.5％),P.aeruginosa(3.4％),SS.agalactiae(2.6％),and E.cloacae(2.1％).The strains were more frequently isolated from inpatients versus outpatients and emergency patients,from females versus males,and from adults versus children.The prevalence of ESBLs-producing strains in E.coli,K.pneumoniae and P.mirabilis was 53.2％,52.8％and 37.0％,respectively.The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant strains in E.coli,K.pneumoniae,P.aeruginosa and A.baumannii was 1.7％,18.5％,16.4％,and 40.3％,respectively.Lower than 10％of the E.faecalis isolates were resistant to ampicillin,nitrofurantoin,linezolid,vancomycin,teicoplanin and fosfomycin.More than 90％of the E.faecium isolates were ressitant to ampicillin,levofloxacin and erythromycin.The percentage of strains resistant to vancomycin,linezolid or teicoplanin was＜2％.The E.coli,K.pneumoniae,P.aeruginosa and A.baumannii strains isolated from ICU inpatients showed significantly higher resistance rates than the corresponding strains isolated from outpatients and non-ICU inpatients.Conclusions E.coli,Enterococcus and K.pneumoniae are the most common pathogens in urinary tract infection.The bacterial species and antimicrobial resistance of urinary isolates vary with different populations.More attention should be paid to antimicrobial resistance surveillance and reduce the irrational use of antimicrobial agents.

Objective To explore the material basis and mechanism of the Chinese medicine Dingqing tablets in the treatment of leukemia.Methods The potential active ingredients of Dingqing tablets were retrieved through TCMSP and HERB Database and the targets of herbs were screened by Swiss TargetPrediction databases.The treatment targets of leukemia were searched from the GeneCards,OMIM and Disgenet databases.The protein-protein interaction network was used to construct the interactive target regulation function of Dingqing tablets and leukemia by STRING software,and the core subnetworks were filtered by the MCODE plug-in.A component-target pathway network was constructed by GO and KEGG enrichment analysis of the highest scoring Gene cluster 1 gene in the DAVID database.Molecular docking of the active components and core targets of Dingqing tablets was performed by AutoDock and the results were visualized.Results A total of 82 active ingredients and 439 targets of action of Dingqing tablets,and 1 878 leukemia-related targets were obtained through database retrieval,in which 169 common targets of active ingredients and diseases were mapped.Based on the degree values,the main active ingredients were determined as quercetin,luteolin,kaempferol,etc.The PPI core network indicated that the key targets for treating leukemia included TP53,MMP9,TNF,AKT1,CASP3,etc.The gene enrichment analysis of sub-networks and the component-target pathway network diagram showed that Dingqing tablets might exert therapeutic effects on leukemia by regulating signaling pathways such as TNF and IL-17.The molecular docking results showed fairly strong binding activity between the active ingredients and the targets.Conclusion The active ingredients of Dingqing tablets may participate in TNF,IL-17,and other signaling pathways by regulating genes such as TP53,AKT1,and CASP3,thereby exerting therapeutic effects on leukemia.

Objective:To investigate the clinicopathological characteristics, immunophenotypes, molecular features, and differential diagnosis of BAP1 mutated clear cell renal cell carcinoma (CCRCC) for better understanding this entity.Methods:Clinical data, histological morphology, immunophenotypes and molecular characteristics of 18 BAP1 mutated CCRCC cases diagnosed at the Department of Pathology, the First Affiliated Hospital, Zhejiang University School of Medicine, Hangzhou, China from January 2020 to December 2022 were analyzed. The patients were followed up.Results:There were 17 males and 1 female patients, aged from 39 to 72 years, with an average age of 56.3 years. Sixteen patients with primary CCRCC were followed up for an average of 24 months, 7 patients had metastases occurred from 4 to 22 months postoperatively. Thirteen of the 16 patients were alive at the time of the last follow-up while 3 patients died 12, 15, and 20 months after the surgery, respectively. One patient underwent retroperitoneal mass resection, but had lung metastasis 32 months after surgery. One case received cervical tumor resection and died at 22 months after the surgery. Characteristic CCRCC regions were identified in 11 of the 18 cases. The tumor cells were arranged in papillary, alveolar, and large nest patterns. Abundant lymphoid tissue, necrosis, and psammoma bodies were seen. Tumor cells showed abundant eosinophilic cytoplasm, and sometimes exhibited rhabdoid differentiation. Round eosinophilic globules were located in the cytoplasm and extracellular matrix. There were 9 cases with WHO/International Society of Urological Pathology grade 3, and 9 cases with grade 4. PAX8 (18/18), carbonic anhydrase 9 (CA9, 16/18), CD10 (18/18), and vimentin (18/18) were positive in the vast majority of tumors.TFE3 was expressed in 5 cases, with strong expression in only 1 case. Eighteen cases were all positive for P504s. Twelve cases harbored a BAP1 mutation combined with von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) mutation, and 2 cases had mutations in BAP1, VHL and PBRM1 simultaneously. SETD2 mutation was not found in any of the cases.Conclusions:BAP1 mutated CCRCC contained papillary, alveolar, and large nest patterns, eosinophilic cytoplasm, high-grade nucleoli, and collagen globules, with P504s positivity. In practical work, when encountering CCRCC containing these features, pathologists should consider the possibility of BAP1 mutations and conduct related molecular tests.
