Trauma-associated bone infection is one of the most serious infectious diseases after surgery, characterized by high incidence, complex pathogenic microorganisms, therapeutic difficulty and poor prognosis. Therefore, early accurate identification of pathogenic microorganisms and sensitivity of related antibiotics is very important to the success of surgery as well as of local and systemic antibiotic support therapies. As traditional detection methods have such shortcomings as complex items, numerous indicators, slow speed, a low positive rate, and inability to detect rare pathogenic microorganisms, there is an urgent need for better detection methods to identify pathogenic microorganisms of bone infection. In recent years, polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and metagenomic next generation sequencing (mNGS) have been used in clinical diagnosis of a variety of infectious diseases because of their advantages in accuracy, speed, efficiency, and detection range of pathogenic microorganisms over traditional cultures. PCR and mNGS can also be used as effective tools to diagnose trauma-associated bone infection. This review explores the advantages, disadvantages, development trends and guiding significance of these two techniques in the diagnosis of trauma-associated bone infection.

Objective Intracerebral hemorrhage(ICH),the second most common type of stroke,can cause long-lasting disability in the afflicted patients.The study was conducted to examine the patterns of change in endogenous neural stem cells(eNSCs)and in the regenerative microenvironment after ICH,to observe the relationship between the migration of eNSCs and the pattern of change in the polarization state of immune cells in the microenvironment,and provide a research basis for research on clinical nerve repair.Methods The collagenase injection method was used for modeling.The ICH model was induced in adult female Sprague-Dawley(SD)rats by injecting type Ⅶ collagenase(2 U)into the brain tissue of rats.All the experimental rats weighed 280-300 g.In order to simulate the ICU at different time points,including the acute phase(within 1 week),subacute phase(1-3 weeks),and the chronic phase(over 3 weeks),brain tissues were harvested at 3 day post injection(3 DPI),10 DPI,20 DPI,and 30 DPI to evaluate the modeling effect.Immunofluorescence staining of the brain tissue sections was performed with DCX antibody to observe the pattern of change in the migration of eNSCs in the brain tissue at different time points.Immunofluorescence staining of brain tissue sections was performed with CD206 antibody and CD86 antibody for respective observation of the pattern of change in pro-inflammatory(M1-type)and anti-inflammatory(M2-type)immune cells in the regenerative microenvironment of the brain tissue after ICM.Results Spontaneous ICH was successfully induced by injecting type Ⅶ collagenase into the brain tissue of SD rats.The volume of the hematoma formed started to gradually increase at 3 DPI and reached its maximum at 10 DPI.After that,the hematoma was gradually absorbed and was completely absorbed by 30 DPI.Analysis of the pattern of changes in eNSCs in the brain tissue showed that a small number of eNSCs were activated at 3 DPI,but very soon their number started to decrease.By 10 DPI,eNSCs gradually began to increase.A large number of eNSCs migrated to the hemorrhage site at 20 DPI.Then the number of eNSCs decreased significantly at 30 DPI(P<0.01).Analysis of the immune microenvironment of the brain tissue showed that pro-inflammatory(M1 type)immune cells increased significantly at 10 and 20 DPI(P<0.01)and decreased at 30 DPI.Anti-inflammatory(M2 type)immune cells began to increase gradually at 3 DPI,decreased significantly at 20 DPI(P<0.05),and then showed an increase at 30 DPI.Conclusion After ICH in rats,eNSCs migrating toward the site of ICH first increase and then decrease.The immune microenvironment demonstrates a pattern of change in which inflammation is suppressed at first,then promoted,and finally suppressed again.Inflammation may have a stimulatory effect on the migration of eNSCs,but excessive inflammatory activation has an inhibitory effect on the differentiation and further activation of eNSCs.After ICH,the early stage of repair and protection(10 d)and the subacute phase(20 d)may provide the best opportunities for intervention.

Abstract： Objective　To elucidate the antigenic antibody reaction of recombinant expression of non-structural protein 1 (NS1) of Japanese encephalitis (JE) virus with various mosquito-borne flaviviruses, including JE virus, and the antigenic antibody reaction of serum samples of patients infected with JE virus in acute stage. Methods　In this study, Escherichia coli prokaryotic expression vector (pET) system was used to recombinant express Japanese encephalitis virus NS1 gene. Western Blot assay was performed to detect the antibody responses of the recombinantly expressed protein against a variety of mosquito-transmitted flaviviruses, including JE virus, as well as antigen-antibody reactions of serum from patients with acute JE virus infection. Results　The NS1 gene expression product of JE virus (P3 strain) was in the form of an inclusion body, and the denatured and renatured expression product was displayed as a single band in the denatured gel (polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, PAGE), with a molecular weight of about 45 000. The results of further antigen-antibody analysis showed that the antigen/antibody hybridization reaction of the expression product with polyclonal or monoclonal antibody of JE virus (mosquito isolates, encephalitis isolates) and serum samples of patients with acute JE virus infection could be completely consistent. The recombinant product showed negative antigen/antibody hybridization reactions with mosquito-transmitted flaviviruses, such as dengue virus and yellow fever virus polyclonal antibodies, but positive reactions with polyclonal antibodies to West Nile virus and Murray Valley encephalitis virus. Conclusions　In this study, the recombinant expression of the NS1 protein of JE virus was successfully obtained, and the antigen/antibody reaction between the recombinant protein and samples of patients infected with mosquito-borne flavivirus and JE virus was analyzed. The study results provide important basic data for elucidating the antigen-antibody reaction between the NS1 protein of JE virus and mosquito-borne flavivirus. The recombinant expression protein obtained in this study provides an important material basis for further research on the function of JE virus NS1 protein.

Objective:To investigate the defeat of men undergoing in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer (IVF-ET) and analyze its influencing factors. Methods:A total of 202 male patients undergoing IVF-ET in Reproductive Medicine Hospital in Changsha from May 2021 to September 2021 were selected by random sampling. General data questionnaire, Chinese version of defeat scale, social support scale, Olson marital quality questionnaire (marital satisfaction, communication), self-rating depression scale, mental resilience scale were used.Results:The defeat score of 202 men in IVF-ET was 16.25±9.93. Marital status, marital quality, education, communication, social support, depression and resilience were the main influencing factors of male defeat after IVF-ET (all P<0.05). Conclusion:Male who have received IVF-ET treatment also have a certain degree of defeat. While paying attention to the psychological status of women who have received IVF-ET, we should also pay attention to the psychological health of the male who have high defeat in IVF-ET treatment and carry out targeted psychological intervention measures to alleviate their defeat, which will be beneficial to the treatment outcome.
