To analyze the transmission characteristics of newly reported HIV-infected students aged ≥18 years in Nanjing City from 2016 to 2022 and provide evidence for AIDS publicity and intervention among young students. The pol region sequences of newly reported HIV-infected students and non-student HIV-infected individuals in Nanjing City from 2016 to 2022 were collected, and the BLAST tool was used to search the published global non-Nanjing reported HIV infection sequences in the LANL HIV database. The basic molecular transmission network and regional molecular transmission network were constructed using the HIV-TRACE in a pairwise genetic distance threshold of 1.0%. 332 sequences of infected students aged≥18 years in Nanjing City, 1 904 sequences of non-student-infected individuals in Nanjing City and 1 698 non-Nanjing-infected individuals were obtained. Among the 332 infected students, the main route of infection was homosexual (96.39%), and the subtypes were CRF01_AE (37.95%), CRF07_BC (37.65%) and CRF105_0107 (10.24%). There were 890 sequences in the regional molecular transmission network, of which 21.80% were infected students in Nanjing City, 39.89% were non-student-infected individuals in Nanjing City, and 38.31% were non-Nanjing-infected individuals. In the CRF105_0107 transmission cluster, non-student-infected individuals from Nanjing accounted for 66.95% (81/121), while in the CRF07_BC transmission cluster, non-Nanjing-infected individuals accounted for 56.66% (200/353). There were 1 644 edges connected to infected students within the regional molecular transmission network, with local transmission accounting for 64.72% and regional transmission accounting for 35.28%. Regional transmission was mainly in Guangdong Province (19.83%) and other cities in Jiangsu Province (4.50%). The HIV-1 subtypes of newly reported HIV-infected students aged≥18 years in Nanjing City are mainly CRF01_AE, CRF07_BC and CRF105_0107, with local transmission as the main transmission characteristics. There is transmission between students and non-students.

Objective To explore the changes in biventricular myocardial strain and the value of strain in evaluating left ventricular function in arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy(ARVC)patients using cardiovascular magnetic resonance feature tracking(CMR-FT)technique.Methods The retrospective study included 25 patients with ARVC and 25 healthy volunteers(control group),who underwent cardiac magnetic resonance(CMR)examination.One-way ANOVA was used to analyze and compare biventricular function parameters,global and local myocardial strain parameters between left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF)≥50％ARVC,LVEF＜50％ARVC and control groups.Diagnostic efficacy of myocardial strain indexes was evaluated by receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve.Results In the LVEF＜50％ARVC group,the global longitudinal strain(GLS),global radial strain(GRS)and global circumferential strain(GCS)in left ventricular were lower than the control group(P＜0.05).While only left ventricular GLS,basal longitudinal strain(BLS),and middle longitudinal strain(MLS)were lower in the LVEF 50％ARVC group than in the control group(P＜0.05).ROC curve analysis demonstrated that left ventricular strain was an effective mean of discriminating ARVC patients from control group and performed well in equally discriminating the diagnosis of the LVEF≥50％ARVC group from control group.The area under the curve(AUC)for right ventricular GLS,GRS,and GCS were 0.904,0.893,and 0.874,respectively.Conclusion CMR-FT technique is capable of detecting biventricular myocardial strain characteristics and identifying early left ventricular involvement in ARVC patients.

Objective To investigate the protective effect of mitochondrial fission inhibitor 1(Mdivi-1),on organ function in rats with explosive blast injury combined with hemorrhagic shock.Methods A total of 192 SD rats(half male and half female,12 weeks old,weighing about 220 g)were randomly divided into 6 groups:Sham group(only surgical incision along the midline of the abdomen),model group(ESH group,thermal radiation and shock wave injury followed by femoral artery hemorrhage),lactated Ringer's solution resuscitation group(ESH+LR group,LR solution infusion in the femoral vein for resuscitation),and low-,middle-and high-dose Mdivi-1 groups(0.1,0.5 and 1.0 mg/kg Mdivi-1 intervention after infusion of LR solution).Fluorescent protein tracing was used to determine the leakage amount of fluorescent protein in the lung and kidney tissues to evaluate the vascular permeability.Evans blue dye staining was employed to observe the intestinal permeability and pulmonary vascular permeability.Laser Doppler flowmetry was applied to monitor the tissue blood perfusion in the liver,kidneys,and intestine.Serum levels of cardiac injury marker troponin I(TNI),liver function markers aspartate aminotransferase(AST)and alanine aminotransferase(ALT),and renal function markers serum creatinine(Scr)and blood urea nitrogen(BUN)were detected to evaluate the functions of corresponding organs.The water contents of the lungs and brain were calculated by measuring wet weight and dry weight of the lung and brain tissues.Blood pressure,heart rate,and respiratory rate were monitored.The survival time and 72-hour survival rate were recorded and calculated.Results Compared with the Sham group,the ESH group exhibited significantly increased vascular permeability in the lungs and kidneys as well as intestinal tissue(P<0.05),along with obviously elevated water contents in the lungs and brain(P<0.05),and decreased blood perfusion in the liver,kidneys,and intestine by 57.1%,39.2%,and 43.2%of the Sham group,respectively(P<0.05),elevated levels of TNI,AST,ALT,Scr and BUN(P<0.05),mean survival time of 3.8±1.1 h,and a 72-hour survival rate of 0(P<0.05).Although LR solution resuscitation reduced vascular permeability and alleviated organ injury in rats with explosive injury combined with hemorrhagic shock,there were no significant differences compared to the ESH group(P>0.05).Mdivi-1 treatment notably decreased vascular permeability in the lungs and kidneys and intestine,and water contents in the lungs and brain when compared with the LR group(P<0.05),with the dose of 0.5 mg/kg demonstrating the most significant effect.Additionally,Mdivi-1 treatment also significantly enhanced organ perfusion,improved organ functions,prolonged survival time,and increased survival rate.The 0.5 mg/kg treatment resulted in a 72-hour average survival time 55.64 h and a survival rate of 62.5%.Conclusion Mitochondrial fission inhibitor Mdivi-1 can reduce the permeabilities in the lungs,kidneys and intestine,improve tissue blood perfusion,protect the organ functions of the heart,liver and kidneys,and finally prolong survival time and increase survival rate in rats with concomitant explosive blast injury and hemorrhagic shock.

Objective To establish an ultra-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry(UPLC-MS/MS)method for determination of tobramycin in human serum,and examine the utility of the method in a clinical pharmacokinetic study of tobramycin inhalation.Methods Serum samples were pretreated by solid phase extraction with tobramycin-D12 as internal standard.Chromatographic separation was performed on a TitankHilic(2.1 mm × 100 mm,3 μm)column.The mobile phase consisted of0.1％formic acid-acetonitrile and 0.1％formic acid aqueous solution at a flow rate of 0.4 mL/min.Electrospray ionization source and multiple reaction monitoring(MRM)scanning were used for monitoring the quantitative ion pairs with m/z 468.3→m/z 163.3(tobramycin)and m/z 480.6→m/z 166.2(tobramycin-D12).The established method was investigated in terms of selectivity,interaction,concomitant medication,standard curve and lower limit of quantitation,precision and accuracy,recovery,matrix effect,and stability of tobramycinin.Results The linear range of tobramycin was 0.050 0-10.0 mg/L(R2=0.999 5).The intra-and inter-batch precision was satisfactory(coefficient of variation[CV]≤3.6％).The accuracy ranged from-0.4％to 6.0％.The matrix effect factor(MF)in human serum samples(including hemolysis and lipemia)ranged from 92.2％to 94.9％(CV≤2.7％).The recovery of tobramycinin was 79.5％-81.9％in serum samples,while the recovery of internal standard was 78.9％.The analyte was stable in serum samples for 72 h at room temperature and for 274 days at-20℃/-70℃.The pharmacokinetic study of tobramycin inhalation in bronchiectasis patients showed that after continuous administration of tobramycin 300 mg twice a day to 3 patients,the mean Cmax of tobramycin was(0.72±0.61)mg/L on Day 1 and(0.76±0.73)mg/L on Day 28,respectively.The corresponding Tmax was(1.83±0.61)h and(1.50±0.50)h,respectively.Conclusions The UPLC-MS/MS method established in this study is sensitive,accurate and rapid.It is successfully applied to the clinical pharmacokinetic study of tobramycin inhalation.The method may be suitable for therapeutic drug monitoring of tobramycin in clinical practice.

Objective:To analyze the factors that influence the height development of children and adolescents aged 3 to 16 years in Chengguan District of Lhasa of Xizang Autonomous Region, China.Methods:During the period from August 2021 to June 2022, a convenient sampling method was used to select 100 children and adolescents aged 3-16 years residing in Chengguan District of Lhasa of Xizang Autonomous Region, China. The subjects' physical measurement indicators, Tanner stage, height development questionnaire, wrist bone age, sex hormones, and nutritional biochemical indicators were carefully collected. The factors that influence height development were analyzed using univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses. Furthermore, the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were constructed to visualize the effects of these influential factors.Results:The study involved a total of 100 children and adolescents, with 51 (51.0%) participants in the tall stature group and 49 (49.0%) participants in the low stature group. Significant differences were observed between the two groups in terms of height difference relative to the national average, body weight, waist circumference, luteinizing hormone level, the percentage of individuals with an abnormal luteinizing hormone level, follicle stimulating hormone level, and bone age [ χ2 ( t) = 13.6, 2.65, 2.47, -2.58, 10.9, -2.95, 11.8, all P < 0.05]. A univariate logistic regression analysis revealed that body mass, waist circumference, the percentage of individuals with an abnormal luteinizing hormone level, follicle stimulating hormone level, and bone age are factors that possibly affect height development ( OR = 1.05, 1.05, 4.56, 1.18, 2.99, all P < 0.05). Furthermore, a multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed waist circumference, the percentage of individuals with an abnormal luteinizing hormone level, and bone age as independent factors influencing height development ( OR = 1.10, 7.01, 3.14, all P < 0.05). The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis showed that the values of the area under the curve were 0.65, 0.65, 0.67, and 0.75 respectively for waist circumference, the percentage of individuals with an abnormal luteinizing hormone level, bone age, and their combination (all P < 0.05). Conclusion:Waist circumference, the percentage of individuals with an abnormal luteinizing hormone level, and bone age appear to be critical factors influencing the height development of children and adolescents In Chengguan District of Lhasa of Xizang Autonomous Region, China.
