The integration of multi-source data and the establishment of early warning indicator systems constitute pivotal elements for advancing surveillance and early warning capacities in respiratory infectious diseases. Given the multifaceted transmission mechanisms and complex contributing factors inherent in respiratory infectious diseases, surveillance datasets and associated early warning indicators demonstrate notable heterogeneity and sophisticated interrelationships. Furthermore, as surveillance and early warning requirements significantly vary across diverse epidemiological scenarios, accurate assessment of the value and applicability of distinct data types and indicators is imperative. This paper systematically reviews and synthesizes recent advancements in surveillance data and early warning indicators for respiratory infectious diseases, drawing on both domestic and international research. Particular attention is dedicated to analyzing the applicability and efficacy of various data types and indicators within multiple practical contexts, aiming to provide robust theoretical frameworks and methodological guidance to facilitate the development of resilient and efficient surveillance and early warning systems for respiratory infectious diseases.

Neuraminidase(NA),a glycoprotein on the surface of the influenza virus,plays a crucial role in viral escape and serves as a stable target for drug candidates.Monoclonal antibodies targeting the NA active site can bind to multiple influenza virus subtypes and inhibit the spread of influenza virus through various mechanisms,such as neutralizing,mediating antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity and complement-dependent cytotox-icity.In vivo experiments have shown that human monoclonal antibodies targeting the influenza virus NA can ef-fectively exert preventive and therapeutic effects,rescuing mice infected with lethal doses and reducing viral ti-ters in lungs of mice.This article provides a review of the currently reported human monoclonal antibodies targe-ting NA of Influenza A and Influenza B viruses,providing new ideas and prospects for the subsequent development of anti-influenza drugs.

One of the basic questions in the aging field is whether there is a fundamental difference between the aging of lower invertebrates and mammals. A major difference between the lower invertebrates and mammals is the abundancy of noncoding RNAs, most of which are not conserved. We have previously identified a noncoding RNA Terc-53 that is derived from the RNA component of telomerase Terc. To study its physiological functions, we generated two transgenic mouse models overexpressing the RNA in wild-type and early-aging Terc-/- backgrounds. Terc-53 mice showed age-related cognition decline and shortened life span, even though no developmental defects or physiological abnormality at an early age was observed, indicating its involvement in normal aging of mammals. Subsequent mechanistic study identified hyaluronan-mediated motility receptor (Hmmr) as the main effector of Terc-53. Terc-53 mediates the degradation of Hmmr, leading to an increase of inflammation in the affected tissues, accelerating organismal aging. adeno-associated virus delivered supplementation of Hmmr in the hippocampus reversed the cognition decline in Terc-53 transgenic mice. Neither Terc-53 nor Hmmr has homologs in C. elegans. Neither do arthropods express hyaluronan. These findings demonstrate the complexity of aging in mammals and open new paths for exploring noncoding RNA and Hmmr as means of treating age-related physical debilities and improving healthspan.

Objective:To study the epidemiological and spatio-temporal distribution characteristics of hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) in Hangzhou City, providing a scientific basis for prevention and control of HFRS.Methods:Data of HFRS cases reported in Hangzhou City from January 1, 2010 to December 31, 2022 were collected through the Infectious Disease Surveillance and Reporting Information System of China Disease Prevention and Control Information System. Descriptive epidemiological methods were used to analyze the prevalence and three-distribution characteristics of HFRS in Hangzhou City. Joinpoint regression was used to analyze the trend of HFRS incidence in Hangzhou City from 2010 to 2022. Global and local spatial autocorrelation were used to analyze the spatial distribution pattern of HFRS and the hotspots of incidence in Hangzhou City. And spatio-temporal scanning was used to analyze the spatio-temporal aggregation areas of HFRS in Hangzhou City.Results:From 2010 to 2022, a total of 224 HFRS cases were reported in Hangzhou City, with an average annual incidence of 0.18/100 000. The distribution of cases showed obvious seasonality, with peak incidence in spring (March to May) and autumn (September to November), accounting for 30.80% (69/224) and 26.34% (59/224), respectively. HFRS cases were reported in all districts (counties, cities) of the city, among which Xiaoshan District (66 cases, 29.46%), Chun'an County (41 cases, 18.30%) and Jiande City (25 cases, 11.16%) ranked the top three. The majority of the cases were individuals aged 31 to 60 (65.18%, 146/224), males (74.55%, 167/224), and farmers (46.43%, 104/224). Joinpoint regression analysis indicated that the overall incidence of HFRS in Hangzhou City was in downward trend from 2010 to 2022 [average annual percent change (AAPC) = - 5.01%, 95% confidence intervals ( CI): - 9.46% to - 0.34%, t = - 2.10, P = 0.036]. Global spatial autocorrelation analysis showed that there was a positive spatial correlation in the incidence of HFRS among various streets (townships) in Hangzhou City from 2011 to 2014, 2018, and 2020 (Moran's I > 0, Z > 1.96, P < 0.05). Local spatial autocorrelation analysis showed that from 2010 to 2022, the number of streets (towns) in hot areas (high-high) in Hangzhou City was 0, 2, 3, 3, 3, 3, 0, 0, 4, 0, 1, 0, and 1, respectively, and was relatively fixed in the southwest districts (counties, cities). Spatio-temporal scan analysis identified three clusters: Cluster I was from August 2011 to January 2015, centered on Fenkou Town in Chun'an County, involving 5 townships in Chun'an County; Cluster Ⅱ-1 was from August 2012 to March 2016, centered on Puyang Town in Xiaoshan District, involving 5 townships in Xiaoshan District; Cluster Ⅱ-2 was from June 2019 to June 2020, centered on Xiaya Town in Jiande City, not involving other streets (townships). Conclusions:From 2010 to 2022, the majority of HFRS cases in Hangzhou City are middle-aged male farmers. The overall trend of HFRS epidemic is decreasing, mainly concentrated in the southwest districts (counties, cities) of Hangzhou City. In the future, precise prevention and control measures should be implemented in key areas and among key populations.

OBJECTIVE: To study the rate and characteristics of H-type hypertension in Chinese hypertensive population, and to compare them with the relevant data from the United States. METHODS: Observational studies on the prevalence of H-type hypertension in Chinese population published before April 30, 2022 were searched in several Chinese and English databases (PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wanfang Databases, and Chinese Biome-dical Literature Database). Study selection, date extraction and quality evaluation were conducted. Random effect model was used to estimate the rate of H-type hypertension in hypertensive patients and the pooled prevalence of H-type hypertension. Stratified analysis was used to explore the distribution characteristics of H-type hypertension in China. We made meta-regression to search the source of heterogeneity. The National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) population from 1999 to 2006 in the United States was divided into four stages according to the time of data collection. Basic information of the participants was acquired from the database and the rate and prevalence of H-type hypertension analyzed. RESULTS: This study was finally comprised of 33 studies, involving 78 470 patients with hypertension, among whom 59 842 patients were with H-type hypertension. The rate of H-type hypertension in hypertensive population in China was 73.1% (95%CI: 69.3%-76.9%, I²=99.4%, P < 0.001), and the prevalence of H-type hypertension in general population was 26.9% (95%CI: 21.1%-32.8%, I²=99.8%, P < 0.001). In the stratified analysis, the rate of H-type hypertension was higher among the elderly over 65 years, males, ethnic minorities, and residents in the inland, western, northern, and rural areas. During the decade from 2011 to 2020, the rate of H-type hypertension in China declined slowly (2011-2013: 79.2% vs. 2014-2016: 70.4% vs. 2017-2020: 66.6%, P < 0.001). Meta-regression showed that area was the source of heterogeneity. The rate of H-type hypertension in the United States increased over time, reaching a high value in 2003-2004 and then declining in 2005-2006. The rate of H-type hypertension in hypertensive patients and the prevalence of H-type hypertension in general population in the United States was lower than that in China. CONCLUSION Although the rate of H-type hypertension in Chinese hypertensive patients has a downtrend, it still far exceeds that in the United States, especially in the elderly, males, ethnic minorities, and residents in the inland, western, northern, and rural areas. Understanding the epidemiology of H-type hypertension provides scientific evidence for further prevention of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.

OBJECTIVES: To investigate the clinical treatment outcomes and the changes of the outcomes over time in extremely preterm twins in Guangdong Province, China. METHODS: A retrospective analysis was performed for 269 pairs of extremely preterm twins with a gestational age of <28 weeks who were admitted to the department of neonatology in 26 grade A tertiary hospitals in Guangdong Province from January 2008 to December 2017. According to the admission time, they were divided into two groups: 2008-2012 and 2013-2017. Besides, each pair of twins was divided into the heavier infant and the lighter infant subgroups according to birth weight. The perinatal data of mothers and hospitalization data of neonates were collected. The survival rate of twins and the incidence rate of complications were compared between the 2008-2012 and 2013-2017 groups. RESULTS: Compared with the 2008-2012 group, the 2013-2017 group (both the heavier infant and lighter infant subgroups) had lower incidence rates of severe asphyxia and smaller head circumference at birth (P<0.05). The mortality rates of both of the twins, the heavier infant of the twins, and the lighter infant of the twins were lower in the 2013-2017 group compared with the 2008-2012 group (P<0.05). Compared with the 2008-2012 group, the 2013-2017 group (both the heavier infant and lighter infant subgroups) had lower incidence rates of pulmonary hemorrhage, patent ductus arteriosus (PDA), periventricular-intraventricular hemorrhage (P-IVH), and neonatal respiratory distress syndrome (NRDS) and a higher incidence rate of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS There is a significant increase in the survival rate over time in extremely preterm twins with a gestational age of <28 weeks in the 26 grade A tertiary hospitals in Guangdong Province. The incidences of severe asphyxia, pulmonary hemorrhage, PDA, P-IVH, and NRDS decrease in both the heavier and lighter infants of the twins, but the incidence of bronchopulmonary dysplasia increases. With the improvement of diagnosis and treatment, the multidisciplinary collaboration between different fields of fetal medicine including prenatal diagnosis, obstetrics, and neonatology is needed in the future to jointly develop management strategies for twin pregnancy.
