Background A diverse cohort of patients and susceptible individuals congregate in healthcare facilities, where exposure to pathogenic microorganisms associated with respiratory infectious diseases constitutes a significant risk factor for cross-infection. Central air-conditioning ventilation systems improve some indoor environment indicators while exacerbating the risk of transmission of respiratory infectious diseases. Objective To investigate the distribution characteristics of microbial communities in the central air-conditioning ventilation systems of hospitals, providing a scientific basis for the selection of microbial indicators in hygiene standards for hospital central air-conditioning ventilation systems and for hospital risk early warning systems. Methods In October 2023, two central air-conditioning ventilation systems were selected from a Grade 3A hospital in Shanghai: one was an all-air air-conditioning system serving the waiting area on the ground floor, and the other was a fan coil plus fresh air system serving the outpatient area on the third floor. Samples from four different components of the ventilation systems—air outlets, filters, surface coolers, and condensate trays—were collected for high-throughput sequencing of the 16S rRNA gene to analyze bacterial communities. Alpha-diversity and beta-diversity analyses were performed to investigate the microbial community composition and diversity characteristics of the hospital central air-conditioning ventilation systems. Functional analysis was conducted to determine the relative abundance of bacterial functions in these systems.Results A total of 528 operational taxonomic units (OTUs) were identified, encompassing 20 bacterial phyla, 37 classes, 79 orders, 123 families, and 240 genera. The analysis revealed that the bacterial community was predominantly composed of Proteobacteria, Gemmatimonadates, Bacteroidetes, and Actinobacteria. The diversity analysis indicated that bacterial community richness and diversity were highest in the condensate trays, while no statistically significant differences (P > 0.05) were observed in the bacterial community composition among the air outlets, filters, and surface coolers. The functional analysis showed that the bacterial communities in the central air-conditioning ventilation systems primarily exhibited chemoheterotrophic, oxidative energy-dependent heterotrophic, and ureolytic functional characteristics. Conclusion The dominance of Proteobacteria suggests that this phylum exhibits strong adaptability in the central air-conditioning ventilation systems, possibly related to its ability to survive and reproduce under varying environmental conditions. The diversity analysis indicates that the condensate tray is a critical area for bacterial proliferation in the central air-conditioning ventilation systems. The similarity in environmental conditions among the air outlets, filters, and surface coolers result in similar bacterial community structures. The functional analysis reveals that the bacterial communities possess robust energy conversion and metabolic capabilities, potentially contributing to processes such as organic matter decomposition and nitrogen cycling within the central air-conditioning ventilation systems.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of transplantation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells （BMSCs） co-cultured with bone marrow-derived M2 macrophages （M2-BMDMs）， named as BMSC^M2， on a rat model of liver cirrhosis induced by carbon tetrachloride （CCl₄）/2-acetaminofluorene （2-AAF）. MethodsRat BMDMs were isolated and polarized into M2 phenotype， and rat BMSCs were isolated and co-cultured with M2-BMDMs at the third generation to obtain BMSC^M2. The rats were given subcutaneous injection of CCl₄ for 6 weeks to establish a model of liver cirrhosis， and then they were randomly divided into model group （M group）， BMSC group， and BMSC^M2 group， with 6 rats in each group. A normal group （N group） with 6 rats was also established. Since week 7， the model rats were given 2-AAF by gavage in addition to the subcutaneous injection of CCl₄. Samples were collected at the end of week 10 to observe liver function， liver histopathology， and hydroxyproline （Hyp） content in liver tissue， as well as changes in the markers for hepatic stellate cells， hepatic progenitor cells， cholangiocytes， and hepatocytes. A one-way analysis of variance was used for comparison of continuous data between multiple groups， and the least significant difference t-test was used for further comparison between two groups. ResultsCompared with the N group， the M group had significant increases in the activities of serum alanine aminotransferase （ALT） and aspartate aminotransferase （AST） （P<0.01）； compared with the M group， the BMSC and BMSC^M2 groups had significant reductions in ALT and AST （P<0.01）， and the BMSC^M2 group had significantly better activities than the BMSC group （P<0.05）. Compared with the N group， the M group had significant increases in Hyp content and the mRNA and protein expression levels of alpha-smooth muscle actin （α-SMA） in the liver （P<0.01）； compared with the M group， the BMSC and BMSC^M2 groups had significant reductions in Hyp content and the expression of α-SMA （P<0.05）， and the BMSC^M2 group had a significantly lower level of α-SMA than the BMSC group （P<0.01）. Compared with the N group， the M group had significant increases in the mRNA expression levels of the hepatic progenitor cell markers EpCam and Sox9 and the cholangiocyte markers CK7 and CK19 （P<0.01） and significant reductions in the expression levels of the hepatocyte markers HNF-4α and Alb （P<0.01）； compared with the M group， the BMSC and BMSC^M2 groups had significant reductions in the mRNA expression levels of EpCam， Sox9， CK7， and CK19 （P<0.05） and significant increases in the mRNA expression levels of HNF-4α and Alb （P<0.05）， and compared with the BMSC group， the BMSC^M2 group had significant reductions in the mRNA expression levels of EpCam and CK19 （P<0.05） and significant increase in the expression level of HNF-4α （P<0.05）. ConclusionM2-BMDMs can enhance the therapeutic effect of BMSCs on CCl₄/2-AAF-induced liver cirrhosis in rats， which provides new ideas for further improving the therapeutic effect of BMSCs on liver cirrhosis.

Objective To investigate the effect and mechanism of Yiguan Decoction(YGJD)on the efficacy of M1 bone marrow-derived macrophages(M1-BMDMs)in the treatment of rats with liver cirrhosis induced by 2-AAF/CCl4.Methods BMDMs were isolated and induced into M1-BMDMs by lipopolysaccharide.A total of 50 male Wistar rats were randomly divided into normal group with 5 rats and model group with 45 rats.The rats for modeling were given subcutaneous injection of 50%CCl4 twice a week.Since week 7,the rats for modeling were randomly divided into model group(M group),YGJD group,M1-BMDM group,M1-BMDM+YGJD group,and sorafenib(SORA)group,and they were given subcutaneous injection of 30%CCl4 to maintain the progression of liver cirrhosis and intragastric administration of 2-AAF.CCR2 inhibitors were added to the drinking water,and each group was given the corresponding intervention.Related samples were collected at week 9.The rats were observed in terms of serum liver function parameters,liver pathology,hydroxyproline(Hyp)content in liver tissue,hepatic stellate cell activation,hepatic fibrosis and inflammation factors,and the expression levels of molecules associated with the Wnt signaling pathway.A one-way analysis of variance was used for comparison of continuous data between multiple groups,and the least significant difference t-test was used for further comparison between two groups.Results Compared with the M group,the M1-BMDM+YGJD group had significant reductions in the serum levels of alanine aminotransferase,aspartate aminotransferase,and total bilirubin(TBil)(all P<0.05)and a significant increase in the content of albumin(Alb)(P<0.05),and compared with the M1-BMDM group,the M1-BMDM+YGJD group had a significant reduction in the serum level of TBil(P<0.05)and a significant increase in the serum level of Alb(P<0.05).Compared with the M1-BMDM group,the M1-BMDM+YGJD group had significant reductions in the expression levels of CD68 and TNF-α(P<0.05).Compared with the M1-BMDM group,the M1-BMDM+YGJD group had significant reductions in Hyp content and Sirius red positive area(P<0.05).As for the non-canonical Wnt signaling pathway molecules,compared with the M1-BMDM group,the M1-BMDM+YGJD group had significantly lower mRNA and protein expression levels of Wnt5a(P<0.05)and mRNA expression level of Fzd2(P<0.05),as well as significant reductions in the mRNA expression levels of Wnt4,Wnt5b,and Fzd3(P<0.05),while there were no significant changes in the mRNA expression levels of the canonical Wnt signaling pathway molecules β-catenin,LRP5,LRP6,Fzd5,and TCF.Conclusion YGJD can enhance the therapeutic effect of M1-BMDMs on rats with liver cirrhosis induced by 2-AAF/CCl4,possibly by inhibiting the non-canonical Wnt5a/Fzd2 signaling pathway,which provides new ideas for the synergistic effect of traditional Chinese medicine on M1-BMDMs in the treatment of liver cirrhosis.

Objective To investigate the expression of disulfidptosis-related genes in hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC)and the prognostic value of disulfidptosis in HCC,to construct a prognostic model,and to analyze its impact on the biological processes of HCC and sorafenib resistance.Methods The TCGA-LIHC database was used to collect the mRNA expression profiles and corresponding clinical data of HCC patients,and the LASSO-Cox regression algorithm was used to construct a four-gene predictive model for prognosis in the TCGA cohort.The external datasets ICGC and GSE14520 were used to validate the prognostic efficacy of the model,and the Cancer Drug Sensitivity Genomics(GDSC)data were used to investigate the value of the disulfidptosis model in predicting sorafenib treatment response,and gene ontology(GO)and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes(KEGG)analyses were used to investigate the biological functions of disulfidptosis-related genes.The independent-samples t test was used for comparison of continuous data between two groups,and the chi-square test was used for comparison of categorical data between two groups.The Kaplan-Meier curve and the log-rank test were used to evaluate the difference in prognosis,and univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses were used to investigate whether risk score was an independent influencing factor for patient prognosis.Results The univariate Cox regression analysis in the TCGA cohort showed that seven known disulfidptosis-related genes were significantly associated with overall survival(OS)in HCC(all P<0.05).The LASSO-Cox regression analysis was used to construct a prognostic model based on disulfidptosis-related genes(DRG),and the risk score RS-DRG was calculated as RS-DRG=(0.061 6)×GYS1 expression level+(0.152 8)×LRPPRC expression level+(0.268 3)×RPN1 expression level+(0.183 5)×SLC7A11 expression level.The log-rank test showed that the patients with a high risk score based on the disulfidptosis model had a significantly lower OS than those with a low risk score(P<0.001).Based on the results of the multivariate Cox regression analysis,risk score was an independent predictive factor for OS in both TCGA and ICGC cohorts(TCGA:hazard ratio[HR]=1.869,P=0.002;ICGC:HR=3.469,P=0.004).The Spearman correlation analysis showed that RS-DRG was significantly positively correlated with the infiltration level of various immune cells(including B lymphocytes,CD4+T lymphocytes,neutrophils,macrophages,and dendritic cells)in tumor microenvironment(all P<0.05).The patients in the high-risk score group had a significantly lower IC50 value of sorafenib and were more sensitive to sorafenib(P<0.001).The KEGG/GO enrichment analysis showed that the differentially expressed disulfidptosis-related genes were significantly enriched in various mitosis-related molecular functions.Conclusion This study constructed a novel prognostic model based on disulfidptosis-related genes,which has a potential clinical value in predicting the prognosis of HCC,and targeting disulfidptosis-related genes may provide a promising approach for HCC treatment.

Objective To investigate the role of P-I-R classification and Laennec grading in evaluating histological changes in patients with hepatitis B cirrhosis after receiving antiviral therapy, as well as the association of these two evaluation systems with clinical prognosis. Methods A total of 218 patients from 14 centers were consecutively screened from October 2013 to October 2014, and these patients were diagnosed with liver cirrhosis based on pathology (Ishak score ≥5), received antiviral therapy for 72 weeks, completed two liver biopsies, and met the P-I-R classification criteria. The 218 patients were divided into non-hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) group with 186 patients and HCC group with 32 patients. The chi-square test and the Fisher's exact test were used for comparison of categorical data between groups. For the comparison of HCC after antiviral therapy, the non-parametric Mann-Whitney U test was used for continuous variables, and for the comparison of P-I-R classification and Laennec grading, the non-parametric Kruskal-Wallis H test was used for continuous variables. Univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses were used to calculate hazard ratio ( HR ) and 95% confidence interval ( CI ), and the Kaplan-Meier method was used to calculate the cumulative incidence rate of HCC. Results After 72 weeks of antiviral therapy, there was a significant difference in P-I-R classification between the non-HCC group and the HCC group ( P < 0.001). There were significant differences in the distribution of Laennec grading and P-I-R classification before and after antiviral therapy ( P < 0.001). After antiviral therapy, the 218 patients were divided into 4A group with 33 patients, 4B group with 71 patients, and 4C group with 114 patients according to Laennec grading, and there were significant differences between these three groups in platelet count (PLT) ( H =36.429, P < 0.001), liver stiffness measurement (LSM) ( H =13.983, P =0.004), Ishak score ( χ 2 =23.060, P < 0.001), and HAI score ( P < 0.001). After antiviral therapy, the 218 patients were divided into R group with 70 patients, I group with 52 patients, and P group with 96 patients according to P-I-R classification, and there were significant differences between these three groups in PLT ( H =7.193, P =0.028), LSM ( H =6.238, P =0.045), Ishak score ( χ 2 =7.986, P < 0.001), HAI score ( P =0.002), and HCC ( P < 0.001). There was a significant difference in the incidence rate of HCC between the P and R groups based on P-I-R classification ( HR =24.21, 95% CI : 0.46-177.99, P =0.002). After adjustment for other confounding factors, P-I-R classification was an independent predictive factor for HCC ( HR =12.69, 95% CI : 4.63-34.80, P =0.002). Conclusion Both P-I-R classification and Laennec grading can reflect the features and changes of fibrosis before and after antiviral therapy, and P-I-R classification is more sensitive to fibrosis changes after antiviral therapy. P-I-R classification (after treatment) can be used to assess the risk of HCC in patients after antiviral therapy.

Purpose To explore the value of insulinoma associated protein 1(INSM1)in the pathological diagnosis and differential diagnosis of medullary thyroid carcinoma(MTC).Methods Twenty-eight cases of MTC were collected as the ex-perimental group and 25 cases of thyroid tumors(6 cases of transparent trabecular tumors,16 cases of poorly differentiated cancer,2 cases of spindle cell papillary carcinoma,and 1 case of thyroid paraganglioma)that needed to be differentiated from MTC in the same period were collected as the control group.The expression of INSM1 was detected using immunohistochemical EnVision method,and the sensitivity and specificity of INSM1 in MTC were analyzed,and compared with traditional MTC markers(Syn,CgA,CT,and CEA).Results The positive rate of IN-SM1 in the MTC group was96.4%(27/28),significantly high-er than the control group of 4.0%(1/25)(P<0.05).INSM1 had a sensitivity of 96.4%in MTC,significantly higher than CgA(71.4%)(P<0.05),and was positively expressed in CT negative MTC cases.The specificity of INSM1 in MTC was 96.0%,significantly higher than that of CEA(72.0%)(P<0.05).Conclusion INSM1 has high sensitivity and specificity in MTC,with a nuclear positive staining pattern,clear back-ground,and easy identification.It is superior to the traditional biomarkers and has high diagnostic value in MTC.

Objective:To investigate the changes of left atrial structure and function in patients with apical hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (ApHCM) by three-dimensional (3D) echocardiography.Methods:From September 2020 to December 2022, 112 patients with ApHCM(ApHCM group) diagnosed at Tongji Hospital Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology and 41 age- and sex-matched normal controls(control group) were finally enrolled. In 'pure’ ApHCM patients, cardiac hypertrophy was confined to the apical segment below the papillary muscle. The wall thickness of apical and intermediate segments in 'mixed’ ApHCM patients increased, but the wall thickness of apical segment was the largest. Two-dimensional(2D) and 3D volume and strain parameters of left atrium were compared between control group and ApHCM group, 'pure’ and 'mixed’ ApHCM patients.The correlations between 2D and 3D volume and strain parameters of left atrium and intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) of those parameters were analyzed. The ROC curve was performed to determine the cutoff values of 3D left atrial volume abnormalities in all subjects. Logistics regression analysis was performed to analyze the impact factors of the left atrial enlargement in patients with ApHCM.Results:Compared with the control group, 2D left atrial maximum volume index (2D LAVimax), 2D left atrial minimum volume index (2D LAVimin), 3D left atrial maximum volume index (3D LAVimax), 3D left atrial minimum volume index (3D LAVimin), and 3D left atrial presystolic volume index (3D LAVipreA) significantly increased in ApHCM group( Z=-6.54, -6.38, -6.98, -7.40, -6.96; all P<0.001). However, 2D left atrial ejection fraction (2D LAEF) ( Z=-3.75, P<0.001), 2D left atrial expansion index (2D LAEI) ( t=-4.15, P<0.001), 3D left atrial ejection fraction (3D LAEF) ( Z=-5.09, P<0.001), 3D left atrial expansion index (3D LAEI) ( t=-5.49, P<0.001), 2D left atrial reservoir strain (2D LASr) ( t=-12.03, P<0.001), 2D left atrial conduit strain (2D LAScd) ( t=7.91, P<0.001), 2D left atrial contractile strain (2D LASct) ( t=6.06, P<0.001), 3D left atrial reservoir strain (3D LASr) ( t=-9.23, P<0.001), 3D left atrial conduit strain (3D LAScd) ( t=7.12, P<0.001) and 3D left atrial contractile strain (3D LASct) ( t=4.78, P<0.001) significantly decreased in ApHCM group. Compared with the 'pure’ ApHCM group, 2D LAVimax, 3D LAVimax, 2D LAVimin, 3D LAVimin, 3D LAVipreA in patients with mixed ApHCM increased more significantly, while 2D LAEF, 2D LAEI and 2D LASr decreased more significantly. The measurements of left atrial volume and strain by 3D echocardiography were significantly correlated with 2D measurements ( P<0.05). The correlations between 2D LAVimax and 3D LAVimax, 2D LAVimin and 3D LAVimin, 2D LAEF and 3D LAEF, 2D LASr and 3D LASr, 2D LAEI and 3D LAEI ( r=0.91, 0.93, 0.72, 0.76, 0.57; all P<0.05) were more than moderate. The repeatability of 3D left atrial strain was lower than 2D results, while the repeatability of 3D left atrial volume was higher than 2D results. ROC curve analysis showed that 3D echocardiography parameters could identify left atrial volume abnormality in all subjects. The cutoff values of 3D LAVimax, 3D LAVimin, 3D LAVipreA in all subjects were 36 ml/m 2, 18 ml/m 2 and 27 ml/m 2, respectively. Multivariate binary logistic regression analyses showed that ratio of LV systolic obliteration to cavity was independent factor affecting left atrial enlargement in ApHCM patients( OR=1.20, P<0.001). Conclusions:Three-dimensional echocardiography is significant for the accurate evaluation of left atrial structural changes in patients with ApHCM. Ratio of left ventricular systolic obliteration to cavity was an independent impact factor of left atrial enlargement in ApHCM patients.

Objective: Comparing the benefit of Abidor, lopinavir/ritonavir and recombinant interferon α-2b triple combination antiviral therapy and lopinavir/ritonavir and interferon dual combination antiviral therapy to hospitalized novel coronavirus pneumonia 2019 in Zhejiang province. Methods: A multi-center prospective study was carried out to compare the effect of triple combination antiviral therapy with dual combination antiviral therapy in 15 medical institutions of Zhejiang Province. All patients were treated with recombinant interferon α-2b (5 million U, 2 times/d) aerosol inhalation. 196 patients were treated with abidol (200 mg, 3 times/d) + lopinavir / ritonavir (2 tablets, 1 time/12 h) as the triple combination antiviral treatment group. 41 patients were treated with lopinavir / ritonavir (2 tablets, 1 time/12 h) as the dual combination antiviral treatment group. The patients who received triple combination antiviral therapy were divided into three groups: within 48 hours, 3-5 days and > 5 days after the symptom onset. To explore the therapeutic effects of triple combination antiviral drugs and dual combination antiviral drugs, as well as triple combination antiviral drugs with different antiviral initiate time. SPSS17.0 software was used to analyze the data. Results: The time of virus nucleic acid turning negative was (12.2 ± 4.7) days in the triple combination antiviral drug group, which was shorter than that in the dual combination antiviral drug group [(15.0 ± 5.0) days] (t = 6.159, P < 0.01 ). The length of hospital stay [12 (9, 17) d] in the triple combination antiviral drug group was also shorter than that in the dual combination antiviral drug group [15 (10, 18) d] (H = 2.073, P < 0.05). Comparing the antiviral treatment which was started within 48 hours, 3-5 days and > 5 days after the symptom onset of triple combination antiviral drug group, the time from the symptom onset to the negative of viral shedding was 13 (10,16.8), 17 (13,22) and 21 (18-24) days respectively (Z = 32.983, P < 0.01), and the time from antiviral therapy to the negative of viral shedding was (11.8±3.9) , (13.5±5.1) and (11.2±4.3) d. The differences among the three groups were statistically significant (Z=32.983 and 6.722, P<0.01 or<0.05). Conclusions The triple combination antiviral therapy of Abidor, Lopinavir/Litonavir and recombinant interferon α-2b showed shorter viral shedding time and hospitalization time compared with the dual combination antiviral therapy. The earlier the time to initiate triple antiviral treatment, the shorter the time of virus shedding.
