Objective:To analyze the genetic characteristics of hemagglutinin(HA)and neuraminidase(NA)of influenza A(H1N1)pdm09 viruses in Kunming during the 2022-2023 influenza season.Methods:A total of 15 strains of A(H1N1)pdm09 influenza virus isolated from sentinel hospital surveillance and from outbreaks from April 2022 to March 2023 in Kunming were chosen for sequencing. The genetic analysis,which included sequence alignment,homology analysis,construction of phylogenetic tree and amino-acid mutations analysis,was carried out using MAFFT version 7,MegAlign and MEGA 11.Results:Fourteen strains isolated during the 2022-2023 influenza season in Kunming belong to clade 6B.1A.5a.2a,and A/Kunming/284/2023 belonged to clade 6B.1A.5a.2a.1. They all diverged from the northern hemisphere vaccine strain A/Wisconsin/588/2019 in clade 6B.1A.5a.2 recommended by WHO during the 2022-2023 influenza season. Comparing with the HA of the vaccine strain:A186T and Q189E,which might cause the reduction of vaccine protection,were identified in Sb of 14 strains;P137S,K142R in Ca and A186T,Q189E in Sb were identified in A/Kunming/284/2023 and two strains isolated from Thailand. The four mutations at tow antigenic sites identified immune escape at the molecular level. Q189E in the 190-helix and E224A in the 220-loop,which might change the pathogenicity of A(H1N1)pdm09 viruses,were identified in 15 strains. Comparing with NA of the vaccine strain:S200N in 14 strains and S339L in 1 strain were identified in antigenic sites. The two mutations might reduce the protection of antibodies induced by NA.Conclusion:Strengthening influenza surveillance and timely detecting new variants in Kunming contributes to preventing the importation of foreign strains and issuing early warnings for influenza outbreaks.

Gliomas are the most common primary intracranial tumors, which have genetic heterogeneity. It is impossible to accurately evaluate the dynamic evolution of tumor genes and microenvironment only by pathological examination after surgery. As one of the smallest extracellular vesicles secreted by cells, exosomes can be used as potential biomarkers and carriers of intercellular information transmission. It can promote glioma cell proliferation, immune escape and chemoradiotherapy resistance, improve blood oxygen microenvironment, and enhance the ability of invasion and metastasis. The relations of exosomes with glioma occurrence and development are summarized as follows.

Objective To explore the effects of psychological crisis intervention in amputation patients with limbs high-voltage burns. Methods A total of 68 amputation patients with limbs high-voltage burns who were treated in Harbin Fifth Hospital from January 2011 to December 2016 were selected in this study using purposive sampling. The participants were randomly divided into the observation group (n=34) and the control group (n=34). The control group received routine psychological nursing care while the observation group was given psychological crisis intervention. The Stress Reaction (SR), SAS, and SDS were used to evaluate the effects of the intervention. Results The observation group had significantly lower scores of SR, SAS, and SDS compared with the control group [(17.89±3.66) vs. (26.89±3.98) for SR; (42.31±8.48) vs. (50.32±10.25) for SAS; (45.32±8.96) vs. (52.77±11.18) for SDS; (t=17.328,4.512,3.581;P<0.05)]. Conclusions The psychological crisis intervention can effectively improve negative emotions such as anxiety and depression in amputation patients with limbs high-voltage burns. It helps patients to develop positive attitudes towards the reality of amputation.

Objective: To assess trends of β-blocker use within 24h of admission in ideal candidates with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) in eastern urban China from 2001 to 2011. Method: A 2-stage random sampling design was performed. In the first stage, a simple random-sampling was used to identify participating hospitals. In the second stage, a systematic sampling was conducted in 2001, 2006 and 2011 to select cases from the participating hospitals. Data was obtained by central medical record abstraction. 10-year trend and predictors of early β-blocker application were assessed with weighted calculation for each year to represent the overall situation of eastern urban China. Results: 35 hospitals were sampled and 32 of them were finally participated. With necessary exclusion, 1399 ideal candidates were included in this analysis. The early weighted β-blocker application rates in 2001, 2006 and 2011 were 64.7%, 69.7%, and 60.9% respectively, P=0.0447 for trend. Patients with chest pain at admission (OR=2.22, 95% CI 1.19-4.13), higher systolic blood pressure (OR=1.40, 95% CI 1.11-1.77) or faster heart rate (OR=2.01, 95% CI 1.58-2.55) were more likely to use β-blocker; in contrast, compared with NSTEMI patients, STEMI patients seemed less likely to receive such treatment (OR=0.55, 95% CI 0.37-0.81). Conclusion: The early β-blocker therapy in eastern urban China is suboptimal for ideal AMI patients who could benefit from it. The application pattern has not been changed from 2001 to 2011 which might be related to physicians' misunderstanding of relevant evidence or guidelines. Our study may help to create an important target to improve the quality of AMI care.
