Objective:To investigate the efficacy of neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) combined with limb rehabilitation therapy in improving limb function of patients with hemiplegia due to stroke.Methods:A randomized controlled study was conducted on 110 patients with hemiplegia due to stroke admitted to the 987 Hospital of the PLA Joint Logistic Support Force from January 2021 to January 2023. These patients were divided into a control group and an observation group, with 55 cases each, using a random number table method. The control group received conventional rehabilitation therapy, while the observation group received NMES combined with limb rehabilitation therapy. All patients were treated for 3 months. The Trunk Impairment Scale, Brunnstrom Motor Function Scale, Surface Electromyography, Brunel Balance Scale, Simple Gait Test Scale, and Modified Ashworth Scale were used to evaluate trunk control function, limb control function, neuromuscular disorders, balance control function (forward-backward inclination angle, left-right inclination angle), gait temporal-spatial parameters, symmetry parameters, and muscle tone recovery in both groups before and after treatment.Results:After treatment, the Total Impairment Scale and Brunnstrom scores for upper and lower limbs in the observation group were higher than those in the control group [(18.31 ± 1.61) vs. (14.38 ± 1.42), (3.78 ± 0.41) vs. (3.01 ± 0.63), (3.75 ± 0.42) vs. (3.28 ± 0.63), t = 13.58, 7.60, 4.60, all P < 0.05]. Additionally, the scores for tibialis anterior, fibularis brevis, fibularis longus, medial gastrocnemius, lateral gastrocnemius muscle control were higher in the observation group compared with the control group. The scores for Berg Balance Scale, forward-backward inclination angle, left-right inclination angle, step frequency, step length, step speed, and step width in the observation group were also superior to those in the control group. All differences were statistically significant ( t = 17.88, 20.15, 24.62, 19.53, 22.80, 3.31, 8.66, 7.88, 6.08, 4.21, 7.43, 3.35, all P < 0.05). Furthermore, the deviations in step length, the ratio of support on the affected side to the unaffected side, and the ratio of swing on the affected side to the unaffected side in the observation group were lower than those in the control group [(3.53 ± 2.55) vs. (5.35 ± 3.21), (1.11 ± 0.04) vs. (1.14 ± 0.03), (1.10 ± 0.06) vs. (1.24 ± 0.09), t = 3.29, 4.45, 9.60, all P < 0.05]. Additionally, the level of muscle tone recovery in the observation group was higher than that in the control group ( Z = 2.53, P = 0.011). Conclusions:In the treatment of hemiplegia due to stroke, NMES combined with limb rehabilitation therapy can effectively improve patients' trunk and limb control, enhance balance function, and greatly promote muscle strength recovery.

Objective:To analyze the genetic and molecular characteristics of H9N2 subtype avian influenza viruses from external environment and humans in Anhui Province from 2013 to 2022.Methods:Environmental samples and human samples were collected from Anhui influenza surveillance network laboratory. Sixty-three strains of virus were isolated in chicken embryos. RT-PCR was used to amplify the virus and whole genome sequencing was performed. To construct gene evolutionary tree and analyze its genetic characteristics and potential glycosylation sites.Results:The hemagglutinin (HA) gene belongs to the 9.2.4.5 clade, and the protein cleavage sites are mostly " PSRSSR\GL". The neuraminidase (NA) gene, basic protein-1(PB1) gene, acidic protein (PA) gene, non-structural protein (NS) gene and nucleoprotein (NP) gene belong to the F/98 clade, the matrix protein (MP) gene belongs to the G1/97 clade, and the basic protein-2 (PB2) gene belongs to the ST/7488 clade. Mutations of T155N, R164Q, H183N, T189D/V, A190V/T and Q226L occurred in HA protein, deletion of NA protein occurred at 62-64 sites, and mutations of T271A, I292V/M and E627V/L occurred in PB2 protein. At the same time, mutations of K356R and S409N occurred in the PA protein.Conclusions:The H9N2 subtype avian influenza viruses collected from external environment and human sources in Anhui province from 2013 to 2022 belong to the same evolutionary branch, and amino acid site mutations suggest that the virus shows a tendency to gradually adapt to the mammalian host environment. Therefore, further studies on the adaptive evolution of the virus and related monitoring work are needed.

Objective:To analyze the relationship between preoperative deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and parameters of conventional coagulation tests (CCTs) and thromboelastography (TEG) in patients with acute trauma, and to establish a prediction model to screen out high-risk patients with preoperative DVT.Methods:The clinical data of patients with acute traumatic fracture admitted to the Emergency Intensive Care Unit of Shanghai Sixth People’s Hospital from January 2021 to June 2021 were retrospectively collected. According to whether preoperative DVT occurred, the patients were divided into the DVT group and non-DVT group. The differences of CCTs and TEG parameters at the same time were compared between the two groups. Logistic regression analysis was applied to identify independent risk factors for DVT after trauma. The receiver-operating characteristic curve analysis was employed to analyze the clinical value of those parameters to predict preoperative DVT.Results:Among 123 patients with acute traumatic fracture, 101 patients were treated with anticoagulation before operation, and 51 patients were diagnosed with DVT. There were significant differences in activated partial thromboplastin time, fibrinogen (Fib), D-Dimer, fibrinogen degradation products (FDPs), reaction time, clotting time, α angle, maximum amplitude (MA) and coagulation index between the DVT and non-DVT groups. D-Dimer and MA were independent risk factors for preoperative DVT in patients with traumatic fracture. Logistic regression equation was used to establish a prediction model: the predicting index = 0.101×D-Dimer +0.241×MA + (-18.190). The α angle (AUC=0.833, P<0.001), MA (AUC=0.904, P<0.001), coagulation index (AUC=0.914, P<0.001) of TEG versus Fib (AUC=0.684, P=0.001), D-Dimer (AUC=0.685, P<0.001) and FDPs (AUC=0.656, P=0.003) of CCTs had a higher diagnostic efficacy in developing DVT of lower extremity in patients with traumatic fracture, and of all the coagulation index was the best. However, the predictor of D-Dimer combined with MA had a better predictive value (AUC=0.926, P<0.001), and the best cut-off value was 0.32 with a sensitivity and specificity of 90.2% and 79.8%, respectively. Conclusions:Compared with CCTs, TEG has more advantages in predicting preoperative DVT in patients with traumatic fracture, and the predictor of D-Dimer combined with MA can screen out patients with high risk of DVT, which can be recommended for clinical application.

Objective:To compare the differences between suspension and adherent cells of MDCK cell line in the isolation of influenza virus, and to explore the application prospects of MDCK cell suspension.Methods:Determination of viable cell density and cell specific growth rate were recorded by cell count. The WHO recommended vaccine strains were used for virus infection experiments. After five passages, hemagglutination titers were detected, while the sequencing analysis of their HA and NA genes revealed the mutation frequency.Results:The 24-hour and 48-hour viable cell density of the cell suspension was more stable than that of adherent cells. The cell suspension achieved an HA titer of 1∶256 or higher in the third generation, while adherent cells had no titer. In the fourth and fifth generations, one amino acid site mutation was found in the HA gene of H3N2 and BV subtypes of influenza virus cultured in the cell suspension, while no gene mutation was found in adherent cells in two passages. There were no mutations in the whole NA gene.Conclusions:Suspension of MDCK cells have more stable growth and higher efficiency in virus isolation than adherent cells, meanwhile there was a low rate of virus mutation during continuous passage. This study demonstrated the feasibility of this suspension of MDCK cells for influenza vaccine production based on cell culture technology.

Objective:To explore the value of stress hyperglycemia ratio (SHR) in predicting the prognosis of patients with acute heart failure (AHF).Methods:AHF patients admitted to the Emergency Department of Shanghai Jiao Tong University Affiliated Sixth People's Hospital from December 2016 to January 2019 were retrospectively included. Clinical data were recorded and SHR was calculated. According to the survival of the patients within 1 year, they were divided into the death group ( n=89) and the survival group ( n=218). Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the risk factors of mortality. Kaplan-Meier analysis was used to evaluate the correlation between SHR and the prognosis of AHF patients. Results:A total of 307 patients aged 83 ( range 74-87) years old who met the inclusion criteria were included in this study, including 153 males and 104 females. The age, SHR and N-terminal prohormone of brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) in the death group were higher than those in the survival group [84 (78, 88) vs 82 (72, 86), 1.11 (0.91, 1.51) vs 1.02 (0.86, 1.27), 5 351 (2 098, 14 039)μg/L vs 4 243 (2 294, 7 565)μg/L ]. The left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) in the death group was significantly lower than that of the survival group [53 (45, 57) % vs 58 (44, 64) %, P< 0.05]. Logistic regression analysis showed that SHR was an independent risk factor for death in AHF patients ( OR=2.397, 95% CI: 1.285-4.471, P< 0.05). Median SHR was used to draw the survival curve. Patients with high SHR had a lower cumulative survival rate, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). Conclusion:SHR can identify critically ill patients and is an independent risk factor for death in AHF patients.

The traditional classification, diagnosis, and treatment of intracranial aneurysms are based on the characteristics of their vascular lumen. However, in the past few years, some advances in MRI technology with high-resolution imaging can assess the pathology of intracranial vascular walls. Compared with traditional methods of computed tomography angiography, magnetic resonance angiograhpy, and digital subtraction angiography, high resolution magnetic resonance imaging technology can help us to newly understand the disease by directly evaluating the characteristics of vascular wall, such as aneurysm wall thickness, inflammation, enhancement, permeability and hemodynamics. At present, high-resolution magnetic resonance imaging is increasingly used in clinic to assess the rupture risk of intracranial aneurysms, which is of great significance for guiding the diagnosis and treatment of intracranial aneurysms.
