ObjectiveTo investigate the epidemiological feature of Mpox infection and genetic characteristics of Mpox viruses (MPXVs), so as to understand the etiological evolution of the pathogen. MethodsThe cases infected with MPXVs were originated from Changning District, Shanghai from July 20 to August 24 in 2023. Epidemiological investigations were conducted, and throat swabs, anal swabs, or vesicle fluid were collected for MPXVs nucleic acid testing. High-throughput sequencing was performed using Miniseq of the Illumina sequencing platform, and thereafter the sequences were concatenated and analyzed using the online analysis tool Nextclade. An evolutionary tree was constructed using the MEGA 11 software. ResultsAll 8 cases were male, with an average age of (35.76±7.00) years. Among them, 6 cases were identified through active hospital visits, and 2 cases were discovered during contact tracing for Mpox cases. Within the 21 days preceding the disease onset, all cases had male-male sexual behaviors, and the incubation period ranged from 6 to 10 days. 3 cases had a history of sexually transmitted diseases (STDs). MPXVs nucleic acid testing indicated that the detection rate of MPXVs was found to be 25.00% for throat swabs, 87.50% for anal swabs, and 100.00% for vesicle fluid, with statistically significant differences (χ²=11.052, P=0.004). Sequencing analyses using the online tool Nextclade indicated that all 8 MPXVs belonged to the West African clade Ⅱb, 4 MPXVs were classified as C.1 sub-lineages, and 4 MPXVs were identified as C.1.1 sub-lineages. Phylogenetic analysis using MEGA 11 indicated that 5 MPXVs were classified as Lineage C.1.1, closely related to the prevalent strains in Portugal and other European regions. ConclusionThe MPXVs sequences from Changning District are clssified into clade Ⅱb, lineage C.1.1. The detection rates of vesicle fluid and anal swabs for MPXVs are significantly higher than that of throat swabs.

Cemental tear is a rare and indetectable condition unless obvious clinical signs present with the involvement of surrounding periodontal and periapical tissues. Due to its clinical manifestations similar to common dental issues, such as vertical root fracture, primary endodontic diseases, and periodontal diseases, as well as the low awareness of cemental tear for clinicians, misdiagnosis often occurs. The critical principle for cemental tear treatment is to remove torn fragments, and overlooking fragments leads to futile therapy, which could deteriorate the conditions of the affected teeth. Therefore, accurate diagnosis and subsequent appropriate interventions are vital for managing cemental tear. Novel diagnostic tools, including cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT), microscopes, and enamel matrix derivatives, have improved early detection and management, enhancing tooth retention. The implementation of standardized diagnostic criteria and treatment protocols, combined with improved clinical awareness among dental professionals, serves to mitigate risks of diagnostic errors and suboptimal therapeutic interventions. This expert consensus reviewed the epidemiology, pathogenesis, potential predisposing factors, clinical manifestations, diagnosis, differential diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis of cemental tear, aiming to provide a clinical guideline and facilitate clinicians to have a better understanding of cemental tear.

【Objective】 To investigate the development of adaptability in children aged 2 - 6, and to explore its influencing factors, so as to provide reference for promoting the development of adaptability in young children. 【Methods】 Data were from the National Nutrition and Health Systematic Survey for Children in China, and 3 319 children aged 2 - 6 and their parents from 28 sites across 14 provinces were recruited in this study.The Development Scale for Children Aged 0 - 6 years (WS/T 580-2017) was used to measure the developmental quotient of children′s adaptive ability, and a survey questionnaire was used to collect relevant information about children and their parents. 【Results】 Among 3 319 children aged 2 - 6, the proportion of slightly low or low level of adaptability, moderate adaptability development, good and excellent adaptability development was 7.68%,66.25% and 26.06%, respectively.The proportion of children aged 5 - 6 with good and excellent adaptability was lower in 3-year-old and 4-year-old groups (χ²=59.29, P<0.05).Multiple stepwise linear regression showed that children′s gender (β=0.06), gestational age of birth (β=-0.05), only child (β=-0.04), left-behind child (β=-0.04), the main caregiver (β=-0.06), and the education level of parents (β=0.09, 0.10), whether parents actively pay attention to children′s emotions (β=-0.06) and whether children play with homemade toys (β=-0.04) were the influencing factors of children′s adaptive development quotient.Girls, full-term children, only children, non-left-behind children, children with parents as main caregivers, parents with a high level of education, parents who often take the initiative to pay attention to children′s emotions, and children who play with homemade toys had a higher level of adaptability development quotient. 【Conclusions】 The development level of adaptability in children aged 2 - 6 in China is mostly above the average level and is related to multiple factors.Targeted intervention work can be carried out on relevant factors in order to promote the development of children′s adaptability.

Objective:To compare postural reduction combined with percutaneous vertebroplasty (PVP) and percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP) in the treatment of osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures (OVCFs).Methods:From January 2019 to January 2020,68 patients with OVCFs who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria in the Second Hospital of Tangshan Hebei Province were included in the observation study. A prospective randomized controlled study was used. The matched groups were divided into PVP combined group (adjust the overextension of the operating table by 20°-30°, if the posture reduction fails, pry the puncture needle on both sides in reverse according to the compression degree of the end plate before operation, and inject bone cement) and PKP group (do not adjust the operating table before operation, insert a balloon and expand on both sides after operation, and inject bone cement), with 34 cases in each group. The Cobb angle of the injured vertebrae was measured by taking the anterior and lateral X-ray film of the patient's lumbar spine before operation. The degree of pain and low back function were evaluated by visual analogue scale (VAS) and Oswetry disability index (ODI). The operation time and fluoroscopy times were recorded during the operation. On the second day after operation, the anterior and lateral X-ray of lumbar spine were taken to measure the Cobb angle of injured vertebrae. All patients were underwent computed tomography (CT) check the bone cement for leakage, record the VAS score, and record the ODI 3 months after operation to evaluate the patient's function. Follow up at the end of 12 months after operation to count the treatment cost and re-fracture of the patient. The data analysis and measurement data were compared by independent sample t-test between the two groups, paired sample t-test was used for intra-group comparison before and after operation. χ 2 test was used for counting data comparison between two groups. Results:All patients were followed up for 12 months. The operation time ((42.7±5.9) min), fluoroscopy times ((20.0±3.6) times) and treatment cost ((19 153±601) yuan) in the PVP combined group were better than those in the PKP Group ((67.4±7.3) min, (30.1±5.9) times, (27 496±669) yuan), and the difference was statistically significant ( t values were 15.39, 8.46, 54.12; all P<0.001). Cobb angle: Postoperative Cobb angle of injured vertebrae in the two groups (PVP combined group (10.7±4.5)°) and (PKP group (13.4±3.8)°) decreased compared with preoperative (PVP combined group (17.0±5.1)°) and (PKP group (16.7±5.1)°) ( t values were 10.61, 5.61; all P=0.001), and PVP combined group recovered better than PKP group, with statistically significant difference ( t=2.70, P=0.009). VAS score: Postoperative (PVP combined group (3.9±1.5) points) and (PKP group (4.1±1.6) points) was lower than preoperative the scores of (PVP combined group (6.9±1.1) points) and (PKP group (7.1±0.9) points), and the difference was statistically significant ( t values were 8.63, 8.88; all P=0.001). There was no significant difference in VAS scores between the two groups ( t=0.48, P=0.630). ODI scores: The scores of (PVP combined group (0.315±0.068)) and (PKP group (0.319±0.077)) after operation were lower than preoperative (PVP combined group (0.574±0.066), (PKP group (0.553±0.075)), and the difference was statistically significant ( t values were 18.54, 14.16, all P=0.001). There was no significant difference in ODI between the two groups ( t=0.25, P=0.803). There was no statistical significance in the two groups of postoperative bone cement leakage (χ 2=0.22, P=0.642). In PVP combined group, 1 case was re-fractured due to trauma, and there was no re-fracture in PKP group. Conclusion:Postural reduction combined with percutaneous needle prying reduction of PVP and PKP can alleviate the pain, improve the postoperative function and restore kyphosis in patients with OVCFs. Postural reduction combined with needle prying reduction of PVP has more advantages in operation time, radiation injury to doctors and patients, treatment cost, and the effect of correcting deformity is more significant.

Objective:To explore clinical results in reconstruction of finger C-shape soft tissue defect with the wrist crease free flap carrying cutaneous nerve.Methods:From June, 2017 to April, 2019, 7 fingers(7 patients) with C-shape defect were treated with the wrist crease free flap carrying cutaneous nerve. The size of defect ranged from 1.0 cm × 2.5 cm-2.2 cm × 4.0 cm; the flap sizes were 1.3 cm × 2.7 cm-2.5 cm × 4.5 cm. Five fingers had unilateral defect of proper palmar digital artery. Two fingers that had bilateral defect of proper palmar digital artery with poor blood circulation were re-established with blood supply by Flow-through flaps. Four fingers had unilateral defect of proper palmar digital nerves, and 3 had bilateral defect of proper palmar digital artery. Five of the fingers were repaired by the superficial branch of the radial nerve and 2 repaired by palmar cutaneous branch of median nerve. Regular outpatient follow-up was conducted after surgery for 8 to 15 (mean 11) months.Results:All the fingers and flaps survived with primary healing. Numbness existed in the areas of functional dominance of the cutaneous nerve. At the end of follow-up, the flaps showed good texture without significant bloated appearance with the recovery of protective sensation. The sensation of fingertip recovered to S 4 in 5 fingers and S 3+ in 2 fingers. Finger pulps were plump. All of the fingers moved freely. Linear scars were observed at donor sites and the wrists moved freely. Numbness feeling in the areas of cutaneous nerve disappeared at 6 to 8 weeks after surgery. According to the Functional Evaluation Criteria of the Finger Replantation published by the Hand Surgery Society of the Chinese Medical Association, the results were excellent in 6 fingers and good in 1 finger. Conclusion:The wrist crease free flap carrying cutaneous nerve is constant and can be dissected transversely to reconstruct and fit the C-shape defect of finger. It can re-establish the blood supply as well as to repair the proper palmar digital nerve defect at the same time.

Objective:To monitor the epidemiological characteristics of viral etiology in children with influenza-like illness and to guide the prevention and management of acute respiratory tract infections in childhood.Methods:Nasopharyngeal swabs were collected from the outpatient children seeking medical care in Children′s Hospital of Fudan University, Shanghai for influenza-like illness between January 2015 and December 2018. Multiplex real-time polymerase chain reaction was performed to detect respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), influenza virus (Flu), adenovirus (ADV), parainfluenza virus (PIV, type Ⅰ to type Ⅳ) and enterovirus (EV), and the epidemiological data were analyzed. Chi-square test was used for statistical analysis.Results:A total of 2 271 patients with influenza-like illness were enrolled, age range from two months to 182 months old, 1 280 cases(56.4%) were positive for the target respiratory viruses tested on respiratory samples. The detection rates of FluA, FluB, PIV, EV, ADV, RSV were 15.1%(343/2 271), 12.5%(284/2 271), 8.4%(191/2 271), 7.8%(177/2 271), 5.1%(116/2 271) and 6.7%(152/2 271), respectively.The detection rates of influenza virus were statistically different among the age groups ( χ2=39.33, P<0.05), which showed an increasing trend with the increasing ages. The detection rate of RSV was 9.7%(35/361) in infant group from zero to 12 months old, which was higher than other age groups. Usually, FluA had two epidemic peaks during the winter and summer seasons, the epidemics of FluB and RSV peaked during the winter season, and EV and PIV were more prevalent in the summer season. Conclusions:Influenza virus remains the most common viral pathogen responsible for childhood influenza-like illness in Shanghai.Influenza virus has high incidence in winter.Widely influenza vaccination is highly recommended for the effective prevention the influenza outbreaks.Continuous monitoring the epidemic trend of viral respiratory infections is imperative for the prevention and control of diseases.
