Objective: To analyze the phylogenetic characteristics of VP1 gene of Coxsackievirus A10 (CVA10) isolates from 2004 to 2023, and to understand the genetic evolution and epidemic trends of CVA10, so as to provide references for the prevention and control of hand, foot, and mouth disease. Methods: The full-length sequences of the VP1 region of CVA10 isolates were retrieved from the BV-BRC database before December 15, 2024. Gene typing, sequence analysis, evolutionary analysis, and amino acid mutation site analysis were conducted using bioinformatics software. Results: A total of 1 253 CVA10 isolates VP1 region nucleotide full-length sequences from 2004 to 2023 were included, with 9 strains from 2004 to 2008, 338 strains from 2009 to 2012, and 906 strains from 2013 to 2023. China had the highest number of CVA10 isolates, with 1 143 strains accounting for 91.22%, and the predominant genotype was C3. Compared to the prototype strain, the nucleotide sequence homology of the VP1 region of CVA10 isolates ranged from 74.94% to 77.63%, while the amino acid sequence homology ranged from 88.59% to 93.62%. The third codon position preferred cytosine and thymine. The top three most abundant amino acids were threonine, alanine, and valine. The average relative synonymous codon usage of 30 amino acid codon groups was greater than 1. The average amino acid substitution entropy value was 0.04, with four amino acid mutation-prone sites identified, and the mutation-prone rate was 1.35%. Conclusions From 2004 to 2023, the majority of CVA10 isolates were primarily sourced from China, with genotype C3 being the predominant circulating strain in China. The nucleotide homology between the CVA10 isolates and the prototype strain was relatively low, and mutation-prone sites were identified, indicating that enhanced monitoring of viral variation is necessary.

Modern Chinese medicine studies have confirmed that the interaction between traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)and intestinal flora is the key to the treatment of diseases with tradi-tional Chinese medicine.This interplay includes such activities as:traditional Chinese medicine can be metabolized by intestinal flora into effective components with different biological activities from its precursors;TCM chemicals improve the composition of gut microbiota,consequently ameliorating its dysfunction as well as associated pathological conditions;and gut microbiota mediate the interactions between the multiple chemicals in TCM.There-fore,it becomes an important way to understand the modern sci-entific connotation of traditional Chinese medicine theory to study the pharmacological mechanism of the efficacy of traditional Chi-nese medicine by targeting Gut microbiota.

Objective:To investigate the etiology,diagnosis and treatment of 45,X/46,XY mixed gonadal dysgenesis and the patients'clinical characteristics of conception,pregnancy and delivery,with purpose of improving the treatment and pregnancy manage-ment of the patients.Methods:We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data on a pregnant patient with45,X/46,XY mixed gonadal dysgenesis.Results:Based on the findings of hypoplasia of secondary sexual characteristics,streak gonads,chromosome karyotype incompatibility with social sex,and chromosome aberration in the gonadal tissue,the patient was diagnosed with 45,X/46,XY mixed gonadal dysgenesis,received oocyte donation and intracytoplasmic sperm injection-embryo transfer(ICSI-ET),and achieved a live birth.Conclusion:Female patients with 45,X/46,XY mixed gonadal dysgenesis are infertile,but can achieve pregnancy through o-ocyte donation.However,the incidence rates of pregnancy complications and abnormal delivery are higher in these patients than in nor-mal females.The perinatal outcomes can be improved by efficient treatment and pregnancy management of the patients.

Objective:To investigate the clinical application value of injection of indocyanine green(ICG)via vasopuncture in fluorescence laparoscopic radical prostatectomy(FLRP).Methods:We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data on 50 cases of PCa treated by injection of ICG via vasopuncture in FLRP.The patients were aged(70.60±5.67)years old,with an average PSA value of(18.42±2.69)μg/L.During the operation,we injected ICG at 0.5 ml by vasopuncture through the vas deferens at each side of the scrotum,observed the visualized images of the vas deferens and seminal vesicles using normal high-definition,black-and-white fluorescence,green fluorescence,and color fluorescence respectively,and then isolated the adherent seminal vesicles under the laparoscope.Results:A total of 93 injections of ICG were completed,86 bilaterally,4 on the right and 3 on the left.The vas defer-ens and seminal vesicles were visualized in 41 cases(60 sides,64.52%),19 bilaterally,7 on the right and 15 on the left.Spillage of the fluorescent agent occurred in 9 cases during the incision of the bladder neck and adhesion of the seminal vesicles was found intra-operatively in 10 cases,in which the seminal vesicles were all quickly located by fluorescence visualization.No rectal injury occurred during the surgery.Mild scrotal subcutaneous bruises were observed in 2 cases,with a postoperative pathological Gleason's score of 7.44±0.88.Conclusion:Injection of ICG by vasopuncture is minimally invasive and safe.ICG-mediated near-infrared imaging and real-time fluorescence imaging of the vas deferens and seminal vesicles can achieve precise positioning and removal of the seminal vesicles and prostate gland without causing rectal injury.

Objective:To evaluate the safety and efficiency of China-made Toumai Robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prosta-tectomy(LRP).Methods:This study included 40 cases of PCa treated from January 2023 to May 2023 by robot-assisted LRP with preservation of the bladder neck and maximal functional urethral length,15 cases with the assistance of Toumai Robot(the TMR group)and the other 25 with the assistance of da Vinci Robot as controls(the DVR group).We recorded the docking time,laparo-scopic surgery time,vesico-urethral anastomosis time,intraoperative blood loss and postoperative urinary continence,and compared them between the two groups.Results:Operations were successfully completed in all the cases.No statistically significant differ-ences were observed between the TMR and DVR groups in the docking time(6 min vs 5 min,P＞0.05)or intraoperative blood loss(200 ml vs 150 ml,P＞0.05).The TMR group,compared with the DVR group,showed a significantly longer median laparoscopic surgery time(146 min vs 130 min,P＜0.05)and median vesico-urethral anastomosis time(19 min vs 16 min,P＜0.05).There were no statistically significant differences between the TMR and DVR groups in the rates of urinary continence recovery immediately af-ter surgery(60.0％[9/15]vs 64.0％[16/25],P＞0.05)or at 1 month(80.0％[12/15])vs(76.0％[19/25],P＞0.05),3 months(93.3％[14/15])vs(92.0％[23/25],P＞0.05)and 6 months postoperatively(100％[15/15])vs(96％[24/25],P＞0.05).Conclusion:China-made Toumai? Robot surgical system is safe and reliable for laparoscopic radical prosta-tectomy,with satisfactory postoperative recovery of urinary continence.

Objective:To investigate the effects of sperm DNA fragmentation index(DFI)on embryonic development and live birth outcomes of in vitro fertilization-fresh embryo transfer(IVF-ET).Methods:We selected 947 cases of IVF-ET due to female factors from June 2015 to December 2020 and,according to the DFI,divided them into a low-(DFI＜15％),a medium-(15≤DFI≤30％)and a high-DFI(30％＜DFI)group.We obtained the female factors(including age,body mass index[BMI],and base-line levels of sexual hormones and anti-Müllerian hormone[AMH]),male factors(including age,BMI,and semen parameters),pa-rameters of superovulation induction,semen parameters before and after IVF treatment,outcome of ovulation induction,embryo quality and pregnancy outcome,and compared them among the three groups.Results:The patients in the medium-and high-DFI groups had a significantly older age than those in the low-DFI group.There were statistically significant differences among the three groups in the baseline percentages of progressively motile sperm,non-progressively motile sperm and immotile sperm,and total sperm motility and progressive sperm motility before IVF(P＜0.01).The baseline percentage of morphologically normal sperm,sperm concentration and total sperm count before IVF treatment,and sperm concentration after IVF treatment were significantly lower in the medium-and high-DFI groups than in the low-DFI group,and so was the total sperm count in the high-DFI than in the low-and medium-DFI groups either before or after semen treatment(P＜0.01).The fertilization rate was also markedly lower in the medium-and high-DFI than in the low-DFI group,but no statistically significant differences were observed in ovulation induction parameters,embryo quality and pregnan-cy outcome among the three groups.Conclusion:High DFI significantly affects sperm motility.The DFI level after semen treatment is negatively correlated with sperm concentration,total sperm count and fertilization rate,but does not affect embryo quality and preg-nancy outcome.

OBJECTIVE To assess the profiles of elements in benzo[a]pyrene(BaP)induced carci-nogenesis,and explore the joint effects of copper with cisplatin or vinorelbine on cell proliferation.METHODS Forty-four elements were measured using an inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometer in 16HBE cells and BaP malignantly transformed 16HBE(T-16HBE-C1)cells.Partial least square was used to validate the robustness of cell classification of elements.Cell viability was measured by MTT assay for copper(0,237,340,487,1000 and 1432 μmol·L-1),cisplatin(0,4.4,6.1,8.6,12.0 and 16.8 μmol·L-1),and vinorelbine(0,3.8,9.8,25.0,40.0 and 64.0 μmol·L-1)to acquire their half maximal inhibitory concentra-tion(IC50).Mixtures of copper and chemotherapeutics were prepared according to the ratio of each IC50.Their joint effects on cell viability were assessed by MTT assay and isobolographic analysis.Inhibition effect of copper(0,50,100,200,400 and 800 μmol·L-1)with IC50 of cisplatin or vinorelbine on prolifera-tion of T-16HBE-C1 cells was also assessed.RESULTS A total of 29 elements were quantified in 16HBE and T-16HBE-C1 cells,among which concentrations of copper,zinc,silver,selenium and rubidium decreased(P<0.05,P<0.01),while those of molybdenum,arsenic,lithium,germanium,strontium,nickel,lanthanum,mercury,iron,and cesium increased(P<0.05,P<0.01)in T-16HBE-C1 cells.Element concen-tration could be used to distinguish T-16HBE-C1 cells from 16HBE cells.Copper concentration-dependently inhibited proliferation of both cells,with a statistically significant lower IC50 of(613±16)μmol·L-1 in 16HBE cells than(776±15)μmol·L-1 in T-16HBE-C1 cells(P<0.01).Mixtures of copper and cisplatin(1∶69.5)or vinorelbine(1∶33.4)could inhibit cell proliferation,and copper had additive effects with cisplatin or vinorelbine.When copper concentration was higher than 400 μmol·L-1,copper combined with IC50 of cisplatin or vinorelbine inhibited cell proliferation of T-16HBE-C1 cells compared with IC50 of cisplatin(11.2 μmol·L-1)or vinorelbine(23.2 μmol·L-1)alone.CONCLUSION Element profiles and correlations can change significantly after 16HBE cells are malignantly transformed by BaP.Copper could inhibit the proliferation of T-16HBE-C1 cells and have additive effects with cisplatin or vinorelbine in higher concentration.
