This experiment was conducted to study the effects of replacing feed protein by Herme-tia illucens larvae meal on immune function,intestinal morphology and microflora of Sichuan white geese.A total of 64 healthy 1-day-old Sichuan white geese were randomly allocated into 4 groups with 4 replicates in each group and 4 geese in each replicate,namely the control group,the 2％HILM,4％HILM and 8％HILM groups fed diets contained 0％,2％,4％and 8％of HILM,re-spectively.The experimental period was 40 days.The results showed that compared with the con-trol group,8％HILM increased the levels of serum IgG1,IgG2a and complement C3,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.01).4％HILM significantly increased the expression level of CD4(P＜0.05),and 8％HILM significantly increased the expression level of IL-10(P＜0.05).The ratio of villus length to crypt depth(VH/CD)in the jejunum and ileum in 4％HILM group was significantly increased(P＜0.05).The SIgA level of jejunum was significantly increased in all HILM replacement groups(P＞0.05).The abundance of Bacteroides in 4％HILM group were extremely significantly increased(P＜0.01),and the abundance of Bilophila and Bilophila wadsworthia were significantly decreased in all HILM replacement groups(P＜0.05).In conclu-sion,HILM can enhance the immune function of Sichuan white geese,improve the intestinal mor-phology of jejunum and ileum,enhance the local mucosal immunity of jejunum,increase the abun-dance of beneficial bacteria in cecum and decrease the abundance of harmful bacteria in cecum,and protect intestinal health.

Danggui Buxue decoction(DBD)is a classic prescription with immunomodulatory and hematopoietic effects.Previous studies have shown the DBD has potential to be used as an oral im-mune booster.However,its immunomodulatory effects and mechanism of action have not been thoroughly studied,especially the protective mechanism of immunomodulatory regulation in the state of immunosuppressive is still unclear.The aim of this study was to explore the protective mechanism of DBD in the immunosuppressive state using network pharmacology combined with animal experiments verification.The active components,core targets and signaling pathways of DBD in treating immunosuppression were obtained using network pharmacology tools.On this ba-sis,the active components of DBD were identified using HPLC-MS,and in vivo studies were con-ducted at the same time.The key active components of DBD obtained using network pharmacology included quercetin,kaempferol and formononetin.The core targets included TP53,RELA,TNF,AKT1,and IL-6.KEGG pathway enrichment analysis showed that phosphoinositide 3-kinase(PI3K)-protein kinase B(AKT)may play an important role in the treatment of immunosuppres-sive diseases using DBD.Molecular docking confirmed that each core target had good binding activ-ity with its corresponding compounds.Animal experiments showed that after DBD intervention,the mRNA gene and protein expression of RELA,TNF,and IL-6 in the serum was significantly down-regulated.The mRNA expression of PI3K and AKT in the ileum and PI3K protein expression were also downregulated.In conclusion,DBD exerts its role in treating immunosuppressive diseases by regulating the PI3K-AKT signaling pathway.

A total of 1 557 cases were included in the Febrile Respiratory Syndrome (FRS) surveillance conducted in Daxing District between 2018 and 2023. Twelve respiratory pathogens were investigated: human influenza virus (HIFV), human respiratory syncytial virus (HRSV), human parainfluenza virus (HPIV), human rhinovirus (HRV), human enterovirus (HEV), human adenovirus (HadV), human metapneumovirus (HMPV), human bocavirus (HBoV), Mycoplasma pneumoniae (MP), Chlamydia pneumoniae (CP), human coronavirus (HCoV), and severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). Results demonstrated an overall pathogen detection rate of 25.31% (394/1 557), with descending prevalence as follows: HIFV, SARS-CoV-2, HRV, HPIV, MP, HCoV, HRSV, HEV, HMPV, HadV, HBoV, and CP. Temporal analysis revealed detection rates of 26.98% (150/556) for 2018-2019, 15.81% (95/601) for 2020-2022, and 37.25% (149/400) for 2023, showing statistically significant interannual variation (χ2=59.703, P<0.001). Compared with 2018-2019, 2023 exhibited significantly elevated detection rates for HIFV and HMPV ( P<0.05), while HRV, MP, HEV, and HBoV demonstrated significantly reduced rates ( P<0.05). Age-stratified analysis identified HIFV, HRSV, and HadV as the predominant pathogens in individuals aged <15 years, whereas SARS-CoV-2, HIFV, and HRV predominated in those aged ≥60 years.

To explore the effect of Macleaya cordata extract(MCE)on growth performance and serum biochemistry of Sichuan White Geese,and to analyze its mechanism of action by network pharmacology and molecular docking technology combined with animal experiments verification.A total of 90 1-day-old healthy goslings were randomly divided into 5 groups with 18 goslings per group after 5 d of adaptive feeding.The control group(CON)was fed with basal diet,the antibiotic group(CTC)was supplemented with 450 mg/kg chlortetracycline premix,and the low MCE group(MCEL),medium MCE group(MCEM)and high MCE group(MCEH)were supple-mented with 200,300 and 400 mg/kg MCE,respectively.The experimental period was 21 d.On the basis of the above experiments,Network pharmacology and molecular docking technology were used to predict the core targets and signaling pathways of MCE to promote geese growth from the levels of antioxidant,immune and apoptosis,and the expression levels of the core target genes were detected by Real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR.The results showed that compared with the CON group,MCE supplementation could increase the average daily weight gain,decrease the ratio of feed to gain,significantly increase the contents of serum GH,T3,T4,TP and ALB(P＜0.05),and significantly decrease the contents of serum AST and TG(P＜0.05).Network pharmacology analysis predicted 2 active ingredient and 237 active ingredient targets,and concluded that the mechanism of MCE promoting the growth of Sichuan White Geese may be related to the role of 5 key targets such as SRC,HSP90AA1,CASP3,ESR1 and MAPK14,and the action of MAPK,apop-tosis and other signaling pathways.Molecular docking results showed that the active ingredients of sanguinarine and chelerythrine in MCE could act through MAPK14.The validation results of core targets showed that MCE could significantly reduce the mRNA expression levels of CytC,CASP2,CASP3 and CASP9 in spleen(P＜0.05)and significantly increase the mRNA expression levels of Mcl-1(P＜0.05).These results indicated that MCE could promote the growth performance of Si-chuan White Geese by regulating apoptosis,promoting the secretion of serum growth-related hor-mones and improving biochemical indicators.

Objective To analyze the risk factors for postoperative subdural effusion(SE)in patients with severe traumatic brain in-jury(sTBI)and create a column chart to predict the occurrence of postoperative SE in patients.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the data of 223 patients with sTBI admitted to The People's Hospital of Danyang from March 2020 to December 2023.They were divided into SE group and non-SE group based on with or without postoperative SE.24 items of data collected from the SE group and non-SE group were compared,and multivariate Logistic regression were applied to analyze and screen for risk factors of postoperative SE occurrence.The determined predictive variables were introduced into R software to construct a column chart model,and the area under the receiver operator characteristic curve(ROC)curve(area under the curve,AUC)and correction curve were applied to test the predic-tive performance of the model.Results The incidence of postoperative SE in sTBI patients was 27.80％(62/223).There were statisti-cally obvious differences between the SE group and the non-SE group in terms of Glasgow coma scale(GCS)scores at admission,hema-toma volume,proportion of basilar cistern compression,proportion of subarachnoid hemorrhage(SAH),midline displacement distance,dehydrating agent application time ≥7days,and postoperative intracranial infection rate(P＜0.05).The risk factors for postoperative SE in patients with sTBI mainly included admission GCS score of 3-5 points,hematoma volume＞40ml,basal pool compression,SAH,midline displacement distance≥10mm,and application time of dehydrating agent ≥7days.Internal validation showed that the AUC was 0.840(95％CI:0.784-0.896),and the goodness of fit Hosmer-Lemeshow test showed x2=6.860,P=0.552,with better curve fit-ting.Conclusion A column chart based on GCS score at admission,hematoma volume,whether the basal pool,whether SAH,midline displacement distance and time of dehydrating agent application has a good predictive effect on postoperative SE occurrence in sTBI patients.

Objective:To investigate the relevant factors for rupture of basilar tip aneurysms.Methods:This is a retrospective cohort study. Patients who underwent cerebrovascular digital subtraction angiography at Department of Cerebrovascular Disease Surgery,Zhujiang Hospital of Southern Medical University from July 2008 to February 2023 and were confirmed to have basilar tip aneurysms were retrospectively analyzed. There were 45 males and 56 females, aged (57.5±10.2) years (range: 36 to 76 years); the maximum diameter of the basilar tip aneurysm ( M(IQR)) was 6.85 (5.79) mm (range: 1.28 to 27.48 mm). Finally, 101 basilar tip aneurysms were included, and divided into two groups based on whether the basilar tip aneurysm ruptured or not. There were 37 cases (36.6%) in the ruptured group and 64 cases (63.4%) in the unruptured group. Data were analyzed using independent t-test, Mann-Whitney U test, chi-square test, or Fisher′s exact test, as appropriate, and predictive factors for rupture of basilar tip aneurysms were explored by Logistic regression analysis. Variance inflation factors was used for analysis of collinearity. Results:The univariate results showed statistically significant differences between the ruptured and unruptured groups in terms of aneurysm neck width, basilar artery diameter, mean diameter of the parental artery, the ratio of neck width to parent artery diameter, aneurysm width and maximum diameter of the aneurysm (all P<0.05). In multivariate analysis, basilar artery diameter ( OR=0.347, 95% CI:0.176 to 0.687, P=0.002), and NRP ( OR=0.366, 95% CI:0.192 to 0.696, P=0.002) were predictive factors for rupture of aneurysms occurring at the basilar tip. There was no multiple covariance between NRP and basilar artery diameter in the analysis of covariance (VIF=1). Conclusion:Smaller basilar artery diameter and smaller NRP are relevant factors for rupture of basilar tip aneurysms.

ObjectiveTo understand the infection characteristics of multidrug-resistant organisms (MDROs) in hospitalized patients in a tertiary sentinel hospital in Shanghai, so as to provide an evidence for the development of targeted prevention and control measures. MethodsData of MDROs strains and corresponding medical records of some hospitalized patients in a hospital in Shanghai from 2021 to 2023 were collected, together with an analysis of the basic information, clinical treatment, underlying diseases and sources of sample collection. ResultsA total of 134 strains of MDROs isolated from hospitalized patients in this hospital were collected from 2021 to 2023 , including 63 strains of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), 57 strains of carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (CRAB), and 14 strains of carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP). Of the 134 strains, 30 strains were found in 2021, 47 strains in 2022 and 57 strains in 2023. The male-to-female ratio of patients was 2.05∶1, with the highest percentage (70.90%) in the age group of 60‒<90 years. The primary diagnosis was mainly respiratory disease, with lung and respiratory tract as the cheif infection sites. There was no statistically significant difference in the distribution of strains between different genders and infection sites (P>0.05). However, the differences in the distribution of strains between different ages and primary diagnosis were statistically significant (P<0.05). Patients who were admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU), had urinary tract intubation, were not artery or vein intubated, were not on a ventilator, were not using immunosuppresants or hormones, and were not applying radiotherapy or chemotherapy were in the majority. There was no statistically significant difference in the distribution of strains for whether received radiotherapy or chemotherapy or not (P>0.05), while the differences in the distribution of strains with ICU admission history, urinary tract intubation, artery or vein intubation, ventilator use, and immunosuppresants or hormones use or not were statistically significant (all P<0.05). The type of specimen was mainly sputum, the hospitalized ward was mainly comprehensive ICU, the sampling time was mainly in the first quarter throughout the year, the number of underlying diseases was mainly between 1 to 2 kinds, the application of antibiotics ≥4 kinds, and those who didn’t receive any surgery recently accounted for the most. There were statistically significant differences in the distribution of strains between different specimen types, wards occupied and history of ICU stay (P<0.05), but no statistically significant difference in the distribution of strains between different sampling times, number of underlying diseases and types of antibiotics applied (P>0.05). ConclusionThe situation of prevention and control on MDROs in this hospital is still serious. Focus should be placed on high-risk factors’ and infection monitoring and preventive measures should be strengthened to reduce the incidence rate of MDROs infection.
