Encephalomyocarditis virus(EMCV)is a zoonotic pathogen that causes encephalitis and myocarditis as its primary clinical manifestations.To explore effective preventive measures,this study utilized a Bac-to-Bac expression system to insert the EMCV P12A and 3C genes into the pFastBacDual shuttle vector,resulting in the generation of the recombinant baculovirus Ac-P12A-3C.This facilitated the large-scale expression and purification of EMCV virus-like particles(VLPs),which were correctly assembled into particles of approximately 30 nm in diameter,as ob-served by electron microscopy.Immunization and challenge experiments in mice demonstrated that these VLPs could effectively protect against EMCV infection,achieving a protection rate of 100％.Histopathological sections indicated that,compared to the PBS control group,the VLP immuniza-tion group exhibited significantly reduced tissue damage,along with a marked decrease in viral load within the tissues.In piglets,immunization with the VLPs elicited a robust humoral response,with neutralizing antibody titers reaching 1∶320 to 1∶640 after a second immunization,and no signifi-cant adverse reactions were observed throughout the immunization process.This study preliminarily explores the immunogenicity and safety of the VLP vaccine,laying the foundation for the development of a subunit vaccine based on EMCV VLPs and offering a new strategy for the prevention and control of encephalomyocarditis.

OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to explore the association between body mass index (BMI) and mortality based on the 10-year population-based multicenter prospective study. METHODS: A general population-based multicenter prospective study was conducted at four sites in rural China between 2013 and 2023. Multivariate Cox proportional hazards models and restricted cubic spline analyses were used to assess the association between BMI and mortality. Stratified analyses were performed based on the individual characteristics of the participants. RESULTS: Overall, 19,107 participants with a sum of 163,095 person-years were included and 1,910 participants died. The underweight (< 18.5 kg/m ²) presented an increase in all-cause mortality (adjusted hazards ratio [ aHR] = 2.00, 95% confidence interval [ CI]: 1.66-2.41), while overweight (≥ 24.0 to < 28.0 kg/m ²) and obesity (≥ 28.0 kg/m ²) presented a decrease with an aHR of 0.61 (95% CI: 0.52-0.73) and 0.51 (95% CI: 0.37-0.70), respectively. Overweight ( aHR = 0.76, 95% CI: 0.67-0.86) and mild obesity ( aHR = 0.72, 95% CI: 0.59-0.87) had a positive impact on mortality in people older than 60 years. All-cause mortality decreased rapidly until reaching a BMI of 25.7 kg/m ² ( aHR = 0.95, 95% CI: 0.92-0.98) and increased slightly above that value, indicating a U-shaped association. The beneficial impact of being overweight on mortality was robust in most subgroups and sensitivity analyses. CONCLUSION This study provides additional evidence that overweight and mild obesity may be inversely related to the risk of death in individuals older than 60 years. Therefore, it is essential to consider age differences when formulating health and weight management strategies.

Objective To investigate the factors influencing the pregnancy outcomes during frozen-thawed embryo transfer(FET)cycles in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome(PCOS).Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on patients'data from 882 FET cycles.According to the pregnancy outcome,the patients were divided into non-implantation group(Group A),abortion group(Group B1)and live birth group(Group B2).Clinical data and laboratory parameters were compared among the three groups,and ordered Logistic regression analysis was used to study the factors influencing pregnancy outcomes after FET.Patients were also divided into four groups(C1-C4)based on the number of high-quality embryos obtained(0-3,4-6,7-10,≥11),and their clinical data and laboratory parameters were compared.Results The clinical pregnancy rate,live birth rate,and miscar-riage rate in the 882 treatment cycles were 71.09%(627/882),61.68%(544/882),and 13.24%(83/627),respectively.Single-factor analysis showed significant differences in body mass index(BMI),infertility type,hu-man chorionic gonadotropin(hCG)day estradiol(E2)level,number of retrieved oocytes,and number of high-quality embryos among Groups A,B1,and B2(P<0.05).Further multiple Logistic regression analysis revealed that BMI(OR=1.046,95%CI:1.001-1.093,P=0.044)and a history of previous pregnancy(OR=1.417,95%CI:1.030-1.950,P=0.032)were independent risk factors for successful FET in PCOS patients,while an in-creased number of high-quality embryos was an independent protective factor for successful pregnancy.Based on the results of Group B2,compared to Group A,OR=0.920,95%CI:0.880-0.962,P=0.000;compared to Group B1,OR=0.923,95%CI:0.862-0.988,P=0.022.Compared with the other three groups(C1-C3),the total amount of gonadotropin(Gn)in the C4 group was the lowest and the number of oocytes obtained was the high-est(P<0.05).Multiple comparisons showed that Group C4 had lower BMI,follicle-stimulating hormone(FSH),very low-density lipoprotein(vLDL)levels,a higher luteinizing hormone and follicle-stimulating hormone(LH/FSH)ratio compared to Group C1(P<0.05).Group C4 had lower fasting insulin(FINS)and homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance(HOMA-IR)levels compared to Group C3,and higher high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol(HDL-C)and apolipoprotein A1(Apo A1)levels compared to Groups C2 and C3(P<0.05).Con-clusion BMI,the history of previous pregnancy and the number of high-quality embryos were both independent factors for predicting pregnancy outcomes in PCOS patients undergoing FET cycles.Patients with a higher number of high-quality embryos have a higher clinical pregnancy rate during FET cycles.

Objective To investigate the clinical effects and pregnancy outcomes of using luteal phase long protocol and GnRH antagonist protocol in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome(PCOS)who have failed their first GnRH antagonist protocol therapy.Methods The clinical data of 163 PCOS patients who underwent IVF/ICSI-ET were retrieved.After the failure of their first GnRH antagonist protocol treatment,they were divided into two groups in the second controlled ovarian hyperstimulation(COH)cycle:Luteal phase long protocol group(n=95)and Gn-RH antagonist protocol group(n=68).A retrospective analysis and comparison of basic clinical data,clinical and laboratory indicators,and pregnancy outcomes between two groups were conducted.Results ① There was no sta-tistically significant difference in basic clinical indicators between two group except LH.② Compared the first and second cycle treatments of patients in the luteal phase long protocol group,the initiation dose of gonadotropin(Gn),total number of Gn days,total Gn usage,estradiol(E2)on the day of hCG injection,number of retrieved eggs,oocyte maturation rate,2PN fertilization rate,2PN cleavage rate,blastocyst formation rate,high-quality blas-tocyst formation rate,and moderate to severe OHSS rate were significantly higher than those in the first GnRH an-tagonist cycle(P＜0.05).The GnRH antagonist protocol group also showed similar improvements.③ The com-parison of the second COH cycle between two groups showed that the total number of Gn days,total Gn usage,and total Gn cost in the luteal phase long protocol group were significantly higher(P＜0.05),while the E2 and LH on the day of hCG injection,and the maturation rate of eggs were significantly lower than those in the GnRH antagonist protocol group(P＜0.05).However,there was no statistically significant difference in the number of retrieved eggs,2PN fertilization,2PN cleavage,blastocyst formation rate,high-quality blastocyst formation rate,and OHSS rate between the two groups;④ The comparison of fresh transplantation cycles for the second COH cycle between the two groups showed that the luteal phase long protocol fresh transplantation rate,implantation rate,clinical preg-nancy rate,and live birth rate were slightly higher than those of the GnRH antagonist protocol group,but the differ-ence was not statistically significant.Comparing the outcomes of pregnancy following the initial frozen-thawed em-bryo transfer(FET)between two groups,the biochemical pregnancy rate and clinical pregnancy rate of the GnRH antagonist protocol group were higher than those of the luteal phase long protocol group(P＜0.05).However,no significant statistical variations were found in implantation rate,live birth rate,neonatal gestational age,and birth weight.Conclusion For PCOS patients who fail the first GnRH antagonist protocol,an appropriate increase in the initiating dose and usage of Gn can achieve satisfactory pregnancy outcomes with both protocols.Compared with change to a luteal phase long protocol,reusing the GnRH antagonist protocol still maintains its long-standing advan-tages,such as shorter total Gn days,lower costs,and better patient compliance.

Objective To investigate the risk factors associated with necrosis in interstitial oedematous pancreatitis(IOP)and to develop a nomogram model for the early prediction of necrosis in IOP.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on 306 patients diagnosed with IOP.Patients were stratified into necrosis and edema groups based on the presence or absence of pancreatic necrosis through follow-up CT-enhanced examinations.Logistic regression analysis was employed to identify independent predictive factors for necrosis in IOP.Subsequently,a nomogram model was developed,and its discriminative ability,accuracy,and practicality were assessed through receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve,calibration curve,and decision curve analysis(DCA).Results Balthazar computed tomography severity index(CTSI),gender,lactate dehydrogenase(LDH),and triglyceride(TG)were finally identified as four independent predictors for constructing the nomogram model.The area under the curve(AUC)of the nomogram model was 0.800[95％confidence interval(CI)0.731-0.869].The calibration curve indicated good consistency between the predicted probabil-ity and the actual probability of necrosis in IOP(P=0.737).DCA suggested high practicality of the nomogram model within the threshold probability range of 3％to 66％and 75％to 96％.Conclusion The nomogram model based on Balthazar CTSI,gender,LDH,and TG demonstrates good efficacy in early prediction of necrosis in IOP.
