Objective Currently, there is no commercially available quantitative detection kit for the main Felis domestic allergen (Fel d 1) in China. To establish a rapid detection method for Fel d 1, this study aims to prepare monoclonal antibodies against Fel d 1 protein. Methods The codon preference of Escherichia coli was utilized to optimize and synthesize the Fel d 1 gene. The prokaryotic expression plasmid pET-28a-Fel d 1 was constructed and used to express and purify the recombinant Fel d 1 protein. Subsequently, the recombinant protein was immunized into BALB/c mice and monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) were prepared by the hybridoma technique. An indirect ELISA was established using the recombinant Fel d 1 as the coating antigen, and hybridoma cell lines were screened for positive clones. The specificity and antigenic epitopes of the mAbs were confirmed by Western blot analysis. Finally, the selected hybridoma cells were injected into the peritoneal cavities of BALB/c mice for large-scale monoclonal antibody production. Results The recombinant plasmid pET-28a-Fel d 1 was successfully constructed, and soluble Fel d 1 protein was obtained after optimizing the expression conditions. Western blot and antibody titer assays confirmed the successful isolation of two hybridoma cell lines, 7D11 and 5H4, which stably secreted mAbs specific to Fel d 1. Antibody characterization revealed that the 5H4 mAb was of the IgG2a subtype and could recognize the amino acid region 105-163 of Fel d 1, while the 7D11 mAb was the IgG1 subtype and could recognize the amino acid region 1-59. Conclusion The high-purity recombinant Fel d 1 protein produced in this study provides a promising alternative for clinical immunotherapy of cat allergies. Furthermore, the monoclonal antibody prepared in this experiment lays a material foundation for the in-depth study of the biological function of Fel d 1 and the development of ELISA detection.

Objective:To explore the value of conventional ultrasonography combined with cervical compression in the diagnosis of orbital venous malformation (OVM).Methods:A total of 43 patients with suspected OVM were admitted in sequentially from January 2019 to July 2022 in the Third Medical Center of PLA General Hospital. All patients were examined by ultrasonography combined with cervical compression and demonstrated by operation or digital subtraction angiography (DSA). The conventional ultrasound features of OVM were summarized, and the value of conventional ultrasonography combined with cervical compression in the diagnosis of OVM was discussed.Results:The features of the conventional ultrasound combined with cervical compression for diagnosis of OVM were as follows: the interior of lesion was mainly tubular structure, and the compression test was positive. After cervical compression, the lesion enlarged and the inner diameter of the internal tubular structure widened. Doppler flow imaging showed that the interior of lesion was mainly venous blood flow. Compared with the results of postoperative pathology or DSA, the sensitivity, specificity, accuracy and positive predictive value of ultrasonography combined with cervical compression were 0.952, 1.000, 95.3% and 100%, respectively. The results of Fisher exact diagnosis showed that there was no significant difference between ultrasonography and operation or DSA of OVM( P>0.05). Conclusions:Conventional ultrasound combined with cervical compression can be used as an effective method for the diagnosis of OVM.

Objective:To investigate the changes in gray matter volume (GMV) and abnormalities in structural covariant network (SCN) patterns in patients with chronic pontine infarction (PI).Methods:Patients with unilateral chronic PI (case group) with the first onset admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University and Tianjin Medical University General Hospital from October 2014 to June 2021 were prospectively included. At the same time, healthy subjects matched with age, gender and education years (normal control group) were included. High-resolution three-dimensional T 1 structural MRI images and behavioral scores of the subjects were collected. The voxel-based morphometry and two-sample t test were used to explore the differences in GMV between the groups. Using GMV differential brain regions as seed points, SCN was constructed to explore the abnormality of structural covariant patterns in patients with PI. Spearman rank correlation analysis was used to analyze the correlation between GMV in differential brain regions and behavioral scores. Results:A total of 60 patients with PI were enrolled, including 33 left PI and 27 right PI, while 34 healthy controls were also enrolled. Compared with the normal control group, the GMV in bilateral posterior cerebellar lobe decreased significantly in the left PI group, and the GMV in left anterior and posterior cerebellar lobes and the right posterior cerebellar lobe decreased significantly in the right PI group (Gaussian random field correction with voxel level P<0.001 and cluster level P<0.05, cluster voxel >20), and there was a significant correlation between GMV values in the left anterior and posterior cerebellar lobes and the right posterior cerebellar lobe and the motor function score ( P<0.05). In addition, compared with the normal control group, the right PI group had broader covariate brain regions and a significant increase in the number of structural connections between covariate brain regions (family-wise error correction with voxel level P<0.05, cluster voxel >20). Conclusions:The GMV in bilateral posterior cerebellar lobe decreases significantly in patients with chronic PI, and were secondary to broader covariate brain regions and structural connections. This may be the neural mechanism of impaired behavioral function in patients with PI.

Objective:To explore the value of 5G robotic remote ultrasound in the diagnosis of plateau pulmonary edema(HAPE).Methods:A total of 27 patients who quickly entered Nagqu, Tibet at an altitude of 4 600 m-5 600 m from March to December 2021 and developed one of the clinical symptoms of HAPE were collected. All patients were examined by 5G remote robotic ultrasound and lung CT respectively. Kappa test was used to analyze the consistency of the two diagnostic results, and McNemar test was used to compare the difference in diagnostic results. The ROC curve was used to analyze the sensitivity and specificity of remote lung ultrasound scores in the diagnosis of HAPE.Results:Among the 27 patients, 16 showed thickening of pleural line, increasing of B line, lung consolidation, pleural effusion, etc. Meanwhile, 11 showed no abnormality. Additionally, 8 cases had diffuse pulmonary fluid in both lungs, and 8 cases had localized pulmonary fluid. ROC curve showed that the area under the curve of lung ultrasound score for the diagnosis of HAPE was 0.947 (95% CI=0.78-0.99, P<0.001). The sensitivity and specificity were 0.933 and 0.917, respectively. Lung CT diagnosis was positive in 15 cases. Lung CT showed thickening of lung texture, ground glass, small nodular shadow, fine reticulate shadow, etc. The diagnostic results of the two techniques were in good agreement (Kappa=0.924, P<0.001), and there was no significant difference between the two methods ( P>0.05). Conclusions:5G remote robotic ultrasound has high consistency with CT in the diagnosis of HAPE and is an alternative early diagnosis method for HAPE. It may have clinical application value in scattered medical resources and remote plateau areas.

Objective :
To study the correlation between cerebral white matter structure with cognitive function and blood biochemical indexes in patients with end stage renal disease (ESRD) .
Methods :
The diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) data of 64 ESRD patients and 47 age and sex matched healthy people were collected. Tract⁃based spatial statistics (TBSS) and XTRACT analysis methods were used to compare the differences in diffusion parameters between the two groups. Pearson correlation analysis was used to detect the correlation between various diffusion parameters and blood biochemical indexes and cognitive related scales.
Results :
The values of FA in the ESRD group generally decreased (P < 0. 05) . The values of MD, AD and RD obviously increased (P < 0. 05) . The scores of mini mental state examination (MMSE) and Montreal cognitive assessment (MoCA) decreased (P < 0. 01), while that of trail making test A part (TMT⁃A) increased (P < 0. 05) . In the ESRD group, the values of FA in the right anterior thalamic radiation, optic radiation, acoustic radiation, and cingulum were negatively correlated with the levels of creatinine and urea nitrogen, and positively correlated with MoCA′s scores, and the values of MD and RD of these tracts were positively correlated with the concentration of urea. The values of FA in optic radiation, acoustic radiation and left temporal of cingulum were negatively correlated with the scores of TMT⁃A. The values of FA in the vertical occipital fasciculus, inferior fronto⁃occipital fasciculus, left middle longitudinal fasciculus and forceps major were negatively correlated with the concentration of creatinine. The values of FA in the left arcuate fasciculus were positively correlated with the MoCA′s score, the values of MD and RD of these tracts were positively correlated with the concentration of creatinine, and negatively correlated with the scores of MMSE and MoCA. The values of FA in the right superior longitudinal fasciculus, the right corticospinal tract and the right frontal aslant tract werepositively correlated with the MoCA′s score, the values of MD and RD of these tracts were positively correlated with the concentration of urea; the values of MD and RD in the left fornix were positively correlated with the level of creatinine and urea.
Conclusion
The structural integrity of white matter in ESRD patients is extensively damaged, which is significantly associated with a variety of cognitive impairments. Serum creatinine and urea nitrogen may be risk factors for the changes in white matter.

Objective To observe the safety and efficacy of regime that based on aqueous cytomegalovirus-DNA (CMV-DNA) load and IL-8 determination for therapeutic monitoring and local treatment cessation of cytomegalovirus retinitis (CMVR) patients after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT).Methods A prospective case series study.A total of 14 CMVR patients (22 eyes) after allogeneic HSCT diagnosed in Ophthalmology Department of Peking University People's Hospital between January 2016 and December 2018 were involved in this study.All patients were CMV-DNA seronegative at baseline and were treated with intravitreous injection of ganciclovir (IVG,3 mg in 0.05 ml) twice per week for 4 times in the induction stage and once a week in the maintenance stage.Aqueous humor sample was collected during the first time of IVG every week.CMV-DNA and the level of IL-8 were measured by real time quantitative PCR and ELISA,respectively.During follow-up,negative CMV-DNA (< 103/ml) or level of IL-8 < 30 pg/ml in aqueous sample was set as local treatment cessation.Then patients were followed every 2 weeks for at least 6 months.BCVA,intraocular pressure and fundus examination were taken for each visit.The BCVA examination was performed using the international standard visual acuity chart,which was converted into logMAR visual acuity.BCVA and intraocular pressure at the baseline and the last follow-up were compared by the Student t matching test.Results Of the 14 CMVR patients (22 eyes) after allogeneic HSCT,8 patients (16 eyes) were bilateral,6 patients (6 eyes) were unilateral.At the baseline,the mean logMAR BCVA was 0.814 ± 0.563,the intraocular pressure was 17.2 ± 7.8 mmHg (1 mmHg=0.133 kPa),the mean aqueous CMV-DNA load was (3.43 ± 4.96)× 105/ml,the mean level of IL-8 was 518 ± 541 pg/ml.At cessation of local treatment,the median number of intravitreal injections was 5 times.Nine eyes showed negative CMV-DNA in aqueous humor,of which,7 eyes showed negative IL-8 in aqueous.CMV-DNA could still be detected in 13 eyes,while IL-8 was negative.Only one eye's retinal lesion was completely quiet.Six months after local treatment cessation,the mean logMAR B CVA was 0.812 ± 0.691,the intraocular pressure was 14.8± 5.4 mmHg;which was not significantly different from baseline (t=-0.107,1.517;P=0.916,0.137).Recurrence of CMVR happened in only 1 eye because of systemic EB virus infection.Retinal lesions progressively improved and became completely quiet in all the remaining 20 eyes.In 22 eyes,iatrogenic vitreous hemorrhage occurred due to low platelet count during treatment (< 30 × 109/ml) in 4 eyes.When the treatment was terminated for 6 months,the fundus of hematoma absorption was clearly visible.At the time of CMVR diagnosis,there were 2 eyes (9%) with posterior subcapsular opacity,which may be caused by systemic glucocorticoid therapy after allogeneic HSCT.Conclusion Aqueous CMV-DNA load and level of IL-8 could be used as quantitative variables for monitoring the therapeutic effect and determining time for local treatment cessation for CMVR after HSCT safely and efficiently.
