Objective:To illustrate the characteristics of the distribution of prophages among the Group A Streptococcus(GAS) by mining the existing whole genome sequencing of the GAS, performing bioinformatic analyses, extracting data about prophages, and analyzing the state of prophages in the genome and genetic composition of some prophages. Methods:It was a retrospective study.Genome assembly sequences of GAS reported in GenBank till May 2020 were collected, and the important background information of these strains was sorted out to create a local genomic database.A phylogenetic tree of the whole genome of GAS was conducted using the bioinformatics software.The core genome was analyzed, and potential prophages and their integrity in the genome were predicted to obtain the characteristics of the distribution of prophages.Genotype types, number of core genes, and number, length and carrying rate of prophages in the database for GAS were analyzed.Results:A database containing the genome sequence of 2 529 GAS strains was established, involving 140 emm genotypes.These strains were isolated from 19 countries from East Asia, Europe, America and Oceania.Stratified by the disease background, these strains were mainly divided into invasive infection, non-invasive infection and immune sequelae.Prophage analysis of 1 798 genomes showed that at least one complete prophage was detected in 1 366 (76.0%) genomes.The number of complete prophages of each strain ranged from 0 to 6, and the length ranged from 32.8 to 62.6 kb, which was mainly 30-40 kb in length.The phiHKUssa, phiHKUvir and phiHKU488 were the most common prophages present in dominant clones circulated in China in recent years, which mainly carried virulence genes like the speC, spd1 and ssa. Conclusions:Prophages are widely distributed in the genome of GAS, which are of great significance in the evolution and expansion of dominating clones and thus reshape the population structure within the emm genotype.The establishment of a local genome database provides important baseline data for molecular epidemiological surveillance.

Objective To determine the serum IgM and IgG antibody levels post-COVID-19 vaccination， and provide scientific evidence for COVID-19 antibody response after vaccination. Methods A total of 980 healthy persons were included in Kunming Third People’s Hospital from July through August， 2021， which had been vaccinated with COVID-19 vaccines and then tested for anti-SARS-CoV-2 IgM and IgG antibodies. Results After the COVID-19 vaccination， 469 persons （positive rate， 47.86%） were positive for anti-IgG antibody. Of them， 75 were males with （positive rate， 39.06%）， and the average IgG level was 0.618 （0.180， 2.526） AU·mL^-1［M（Q₁，Q₃）］； 394 were females （50.00%）， and the IgG level was 0.999 （0.305， 3.334） AU·mL^-1. In addition， 53 persons （5.41%） were anti-IgM antibody positive. Of them， 14 were males （positive rate， 7.29%）， and the average IgM level was 0.057 （0.026， 0.195） AU·mL^-1； 39 were females （4.95%）， and the IgM level was 0.047 （0.027， 0.110） AU·mL^-1. The positive rate of anti-IgG antibody was highest in those aged ≤30 years， which was 51.02% in male （n=25） and 55.88% in female （n=133）. The anti-IgG response differed significantly by gender （χ²=7.401， D=0.135 1， P<0.05）， whereas the anti-IgM response was not significantly different （χ²=1.656， P>0.05）. Among the age groups， anti-IgG antibody level was higher in those aged ≤30 and 51-70 years， with 158 （55.05%） and 122 （52.36%） persons， respectively； the average antibody level was 1.209 （0.426， 4.386） AU·mL^-1 and 1.074 （0.191， 7.670） AU·mL^-1， respectively. The differences in the positive rates of IgG and IgM antibodies and the levels of IgG antibodies among different age groups were statistically significant （P<0.05）. Using Kruskal-Wallis test and Spearman correlation analysis， it showed a high correlation between the IgG and IgM antibodies （r=0.836 4， H=64.82， 20.09， P<0.05）. Conclusion The Anti-SARS-CoV-2 IgG antibody remains high six months post-COVID-19 vaccination， while anti-IgM antibody is low. The IgM and IgG response are higher in the young and elderly. The response differs by gender and age， demonstrating a correlation.

Objective:To investigate the changes of T1 and T2 values in residual liver after major liver resection in rats and the relationship with pathologic indices related to liver regeneration.Methods:Seventy healthy male Sprague Dawley rats, SPF grade, aged 7-8 weeks, weighting 250-280 g, were divided into MR scan group ( n=14) and pathologic analysis group ( n=56). The MR scan group was further divided into partial hepatectomy group ( n=7) and the sham operation group ( n=7). MRI T 1 mapping and T 2 mapping were performed before surgery and on day 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 14, 21 after surgery. T1 and T2 values of liver parenchyma were measured. In the pathologic analysis group, 7 rats were randomly included at each time point before and after surgery for pathologic examination, the diameter and proliferative activity (Ki-67 indices) of hepatocytes were assessed. The changes of imaging and pathologic indices were observed, and the correlations between MR parameters and liver volume and pathologic indices were analyzed. Results:Both T1 and T2 values in liver parenchyma were increased on day 1 after surgery and reached their maximum values on day 2 ( P=0.005 and P<0.001, compared with baseline), then were gradually decreased, and recovered to the preoperative level on day 14 and 21 ( P>0.05), respectively. T2 value was correlated with hepatocyte diameter, liver volume and Ki-67 indices better ( r=0.640, -0.764, 0.765, respectively, all P<0.001). T1 value was correlated with hepatocyte diameter, liver volume and Ki-67 indices ( r=0.472, -0.481 and 0.444, all P<0.001). Conclusion:The T1 and T2 values of rats liver remnant parenchyma showed regular changes, and were correlated with liver regeneration indices, which reflect the microscopic changes of rat liver remnant parenchyma, and are expected to be used for quantitative monitoring of liver remnant regeneration.

OBJECTIVE: To analyze the relationship between the blood biochemical indexes and the local muscle fatigue of operators with local muscle fatigue caused by moderate-load repetitive manual lifting. METHODS: Five healthy male volunteers were selected as the research subjects. They repeatedly performed simulated manual lifting operation for four periods(T1-T4), 10 minutes per period. Each period was suspended for 3 minutes to be accessed for the rating of perceived exertion(RPE) score of local muscle. Meanwhile, their venous blood was collected to be detected for serum calcium ion, creatine kinase, cartilage oligomeric matrix protein(COMP), ammonia, lactic acid, lactate dehydrogenase(LDH), C-reactive protein(CRP), and collagen type Ⅱ C terminal telopeptide(CTX-Ⅱ). RESULTS: The RPE score and serum creatine kinase level of the subjects increased with the increasing of lifting time(P<0.05). Serum calcium ion levels in time periods T2, T3 and T4 were higher than that in T1(P<0.05). Serum COMP levels in T3 and T4 were higher than that in T1(P<0.05). The levels of ammonia,lactic acid, LDH, CRP and CTX-Ⅱ in each time period showed no statistical significance(P>0.05). Serum creatine kinase, calcium ion and LDH levels were positively correlated with RPE score(correlation coefficient were 0.840, 0.512, 0.741, respectively, P<0.01). CONCLUSION: Serum creatine kinase is a sensitive, effective and objective index reflecting muscle fatigue, which is suitable for evaluating the fatigue process of moderate-load repetitive activities. Serum calcium ion has a good correlation with muscle fatigue, and serum COMP can reflect muscle fatigue to some extent.

Despite recent clinical guidelines, the optimal therapeutic strategy for the management of refractory chronic cough is still a challenge. The present systematic review was designed to assess the evidence for efficacy and safety of gabapentin in the treatment of chronic cough. A systematic search of PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library databases, and publications cited in bibliographies was performed. Articles were searched by two reviewers with a priori criteria for study selection. Seven relevant articles were identified, including two randomized controlled trials, one prospective case-series designed with consecutive patients, one retrospective case series of consecutive patients, one retrospective case series with unknown consecutive status, and two case reports comprising six and two patients, respectively. Improvements were detected in cough-specific quality of life (Leicester Cough Questionnaire score) and cough severity (visual analogue scale score) following gabapentin treatment in randomized controlled trials. The results of prospective case-series showed that the rate of overall improvement of cough and sensory neuropathy with gabapentin was 68%. Gabapentin treatment of patients with chronic cough showed superior efficacy and a good safety record compared with placebo or standard medications. Additional randomized and controlled trials are needed.
