ObjectiveA multiplex amplification system was constructed based on the capillary electrophoresis platform for simultaneous detection of saliva, semen, and vaginal secretions using tissue-specific RNA markers. The aim of this study is to identify the tissue origin of suspicious body fluid stains found at crime scenes and determine whether the body fluid stains at the crime scene are one or several types among saliva, semen, and vaginal secretions. MethodsThirty saliva samples, forty semen samples, and forty vaginal secretion samples (half from 2015 and half from 2024) were collected from healthy adult volunteers. Through primer designing, system formulation, and PCR condition optimization, a multiplex fluorescent amplification system was constructed. The specificity, sensitivity, and detection ability for mixed samples of this system were investigated, and it was tested using real crime scene materials. In the primer design stage, to reduce the requirements for RNA template quality, the amplification products were set within 80-300 bp. In the system formulation stage, dominant and subordinate primers were mainly considered. By reducing the concentration of dominant primers and increasing that of subordinate primers, a capillary electrophoresis spectrum with an appropriate peak height ratio was finally obtained. Additionally, gradient experiments were designed to adjust the concentrations of PCR reagents and PCR amplification conditions, and multiple versions of DNA amplification enzymes were optimized to achieve the best experimental results. ResultsThrough statistical analysis, there was no significant difference in the capillary electrophoresis of the 3 types of body fluid samples from the two years (2015 and 2024), demonstrating that the sample preservation method in this study can preserve samples for a relatively long time. The composite amplification system constructed in this study exhibited high specificity for all 3 types of body fluid, with no cross-reactions between the markers of each type of body fluid. The minimum detection thresholds for the 3 types of body fluid reached 0.002 9, 0.001 5, and 0.42 mg/L, respectively. This system also had a high degree of discrimination for mixed samples, especially for semen-saliva mixtures, where each body fluid marker could still be successfully detected when the concentration ratio of semen to saliva was 100:1. Meanwhile, in the two actual cases presented in this article, the application of this composite amplification system performed outstandingly. ConclusionThe composite amplification detection system constructed in this study can achieve the correct screening of saliva, semen, and vaginal secretions, overcoming the problems such as low specificity and sensitivity of marker tests and unbalanced RFU values of each marker in previous studies. The specificity and sensitivity meet the practical work requirements, and the operation is simple. It provides an analytical and identification method for body fluid stains in actual case and is applicable to the identification of the tissue origin of biological evidence at crime scenes involving sexual assault, indecent assault, and other criminal acts. In the future, more types of body fluid markers will be screened to expand the types of body fluids detected by the system, and body fluid-specific cSNP and cInDel genetic markers will be introduced to infer the sources (individuals and types) of mixed and complex stains more accurately.

Monosodium urate (MSU)-induced the gouty arthritis (GA) model was used to investigate the effect of Nod-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3) inhibitor N14 in alleviating GA. Firstly, the effect of NLRP3 inhibitor N14 on the viability of mouse monocyte macrophage J774A.1 was examined by the cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) assay. The expression of mature interleukin 1β (IL-1β) and cysteinyl aspartate specific proteinase-1 (caspase-1) p20 in the cell supernatant and the expression of NLRP3, caspase-1 and pro-IL-1β proteins in the cell lysates was detected by Western blot for the inhibitory effect of N14 on the MSU-induced NLRP3 inflammasome activation in J774A.1 cells. Animal behavioral tests were used to detect redness, swelling, heat and pain in mice with gouty arthritis. Hematoxylin-eosin (H&E) staining revealed pathologic changes and inflammatory infiltration in foot sections. Protein expression of NLRP3, caspase-1, and pro-IL-1β in mouse hind paw tissues were assessed by Western blot. The effect of N14 on the plasma levels of alanine transaminase (ALT), aspartate transaminase (AST), creatinine (CRE), urea, and uric acid (UA) was investigated by the MSU-induced gouty arthritis model in mice. All animal experiments in this paper were approved by the Scientific Ethics Review Board of Qingdao Marine Biomedical Research Institute (grant No. E-MBWNL-2024-20). The experimental results showed that N14 did not exhibit cytotoxicity in mouse monocyte macrophage J774A.1 cells at concentrations up to 100 μmol·L^-1, and N14 effectively prevented MSU-induced activation of NLRP3 inflammasome. In the mouse gouty arthritis model, N14 significantly ameliorated the redness, swelling, heat and pain caused by GA, and down-regulated the levels of NLRP3 inflammasome-associated proteins in mouse hind paw tissues. Meanwhile, N14 appeared to be well tolerated, as it did not significantly affect various biochemical indices in mouse plasma. In conclusion, N14 effectively alleviated GA in mice by inhibiting the NLRP3 inflammasome pathway, which is important for both prevention and treatment of related diseases.

Objective:To analyze the bubble dynamic characteristics of shock wave enhanced emission photoacoustic streaming(SWEEPS)technique in free water region under different temporay delays.Methods:The Er∶YAG laser tip was activated in free water model with SWEEPS mode at 150-600 μs pulse delay.The bubble dynamic process during irrigation was recorded by a high-speed camera(200 000 Hz).Matlab was used to analyze the interaction between bubble made by the dual pulses frame by frame.The distance between bubble remnants and laser tip was measured before the bubble disappeared.The experimental data were statisti-cally analyzed by SPSS 19.0.Results:In free water region,different temporal delays caused different interaction between the bub-bles activated by the SWEEPS technique with a dual pulse modality.The interactions include bubble fusion,bubble collision and bubble separation.When the temporal delay between 360-440 μs,bubble collision was the most violent,and the farthest distance between bubble remnants and laser tip was reached.Conclusion:In free water region,the dual pulse of SWEEPS technique can lead to bubble interaction which may enhance the cavitation effect of Er∶YAG laser irrigation,and improve the debridement in clinic ap-plication.

Objective To explore the application of metagenomic next-generation sequencing(mNGS)technology in the investigation of healthcare-associated infection(HAI)outbreaks of carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter bau-mannii(CRAB).Methods Pathogenic detection by mNGS and conventional pathogen culture were performed on 5 patients in the intensive care unit(ICU)of a hospital from June 8 to 22,2023 from whom CRAB were detected.Microbial sampling was carried out in potentially contaminated environment.Bacterial culture,identification,and antimicrobial susceptibility testing were conducted.Comprehensive control measures were taken,and the effect was evaluated.Results The time required for reporting results by mNGS was shorter than the culture time([3.92± 1.05]days vs[6.24±0.25]days,P＜0.001).CRAB was isolated from the specimens of 5 patients.mNGS de-tected OXA-23 resistance genes from all patients.After comprehensive assessment by experts,4 patients were HAI and 1 patient was due to specimen contamination.According to the definition from Guidelines for HAI outbreak control,this event was considered an outbreak of HAI.The monitoring results of environmental hygiene showed that the detection rate of CRAB in the environment during the outbreak was 51.30％(59/115),mainly from the hands of health care workers and the surface of ventilators.After implementing multidisciplinary infection control measures,clinicians'hand hygiene compliance rate and implementation rate of ventilator disinfection increased from 40.83％(49/120)and 33.33％(16/48)to 82.61％(95/115)and 83.33％(30/36),respectively.The prognosis of patients was good,and no new case emerged during subsequent monitoring.The outbreak of HAI in this hospital has been effectively controlled.Conclusion mNGS is characterized by high precision,less time consumption,and high accuracy,and can be applied to the prevention and control of HAI outbreak and the study of antimicrobial-re-sistant genomes.It is of great significance for the anti-infection treatment of patients with multidrug-resistant orga-nism infection as well as the formulation of HAI prevention and control measures.Continuous improving disinfec-tion effectiveness and hand hygiene compliance is important for preventing and controlling CRAB infection.

Objective To investigate the effect of Zheng's 4C suspension transumbilical laparoendoscopic single-site surgery(TU-LSSS)in the treatment of cervical cancer,and analyze its prognosis.Methods A total of 92 patients with cervical cancer admitted to our hospital were selected and randomly divided into the control group(traditional laparoscopic surgery)and the observation group(Zheng's 4C suspension TU-LSSS),with 46 cases in each group.The perioperative related indicators of patients between the two groups were compared.The patients were followed up for 3 years,the progression-free survival(PFS)and overall survival(OS)were recorded,and the influencing factors of prognosis were analyzed.Results Compared with the control group,patients in the observation group had longer surgical time(P<0.05),less intraoperative bleeding(P<0.05),shorter recovery time for postoperative bowel sounds and hospital stay(P<0.05),higher postoperative 3-year PFS rate and 3-year OS rate(P<0.05).During 3-year follow-up,there were 11 cases of disease progression or death.The univariate analysis results showed that there were statistically significant differences in tumor diameter,clinical stage,lymph node metastasis,vascular infiltration,and treatment methods of patients between the good prognosis group and the poor prognosis group(P<0.05).The binary Logistic regression results showed that tumor diameter(≥4 cm),clinical stage(≥stage ⅠB2),lymph node metastasis,and vascular infiltration were the risk factors for the prognosis of patietns with cervical cancer(P<0.05),while Zheng's 4C suspension TU-LSSS was the protective factors(P<0.05).Conclusion Zheng's 4C suspension TU-LSSS can effectively promote the recovery of patients with cervical cancer,and improve 3-year PFS rate and 3-year OS rate.The prognosis is related to many factors,and targeted treatment should be performed according to different risk factors.

Objective Viral encephalitis is an infectious disease severely affecting human health.It is caused by a wide variety of viral pathogens,including herpes viruses,flaviviruses,enteroviruses,and other viruses.The laboratory diagnosis of viral encephalitis is a worldwide challenge.Recently,high-throughput sequencing technology has provided new tools for diagnosing central nervous system infections.Thus,In this study,we established a multipathogen detection platform for viral encephalitis based on amplicon sequencing. Methods We designed nine pairs of specific polymerase chain reaction(PCR)primers for the 12 viruses by reviewing the relevant literature.The detection ability of the primers was verified by software simulation and the detection of known positive samples.Amplicon sequencing was used to validate the samples,and consistency was compared with Sanger sequencing. Results The results showed that the target sequences of various pathogens were obtained at a coverage depth level greater than 20×,and the sequence lengths were consistent with the sizes of the predicted amplicons.The sequences were verified using the National Center for Biotechnology Information BLAST,and all results were consistent with the results of Sanger sequencing. Conclusion Amplicon-based high-throughput sequencing technology is feasible as a supplementary method for the pathogenic detection of viral encephalitis.It is also a useful tool for the high-volume screening of clinical samples.

Objective:To explore the potential categories of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in patients undergoing replantation of severed fingers, and analyze their influencing factors.Methods:From January 2022 to December 2023, convenience sampling was used to select 335 patients who underwent replantation of severed fingers at the Hand and Foot Surgery of Taizhou Hospital of Zhejiang Province as research subjects. The survey was conducted using the General Information Questionnaire, PTSD Checklist-Civilian Version, Event Related Rumination Inventory, Chinese version of the Perceived Social Support Scale, and the Eysenck Personality Questionnaire-Revised, Short Scale for Chinese. Potential profile analysis was used to explore the potential categories of PTSD in patients undergoing replantation of severed fingers, and ordered Logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of PTSD categories.Results:A total of 335 questionnaires were distributed, and 328 valid questionnaires were collected, with a valid response rate of 97.91%. Potential profile analysis showed that PTSD of 328 patients undergoing severed finger replantation were divided into three latent categories, including low PTSD-high avoidance type ( n=67, accounting for 20.43%), moderate PTSD-high alertness type ( n=178, accounting for 54.27%), and high PTSD-high alertness type ( n=83, accounting for 25.30%). There were statistically significant differences in the number of severed fingers, incidence of postoperative vascular crisis, rumination, perceived social support, and personality trait scores among patients with different types of severed finger replantation ( P<0.05). Taking low PTSD-high avoidance type as a reference, ordered Logistic regression analysis showed that invasive rumination, purposive rumination, and personality types (introversion, neuroticism, psychoticism) were potential influencing factors for the moderate PTSD-high alertness type ( P<0.05). The number of severed fingers, postoperative vascular crisis, invasive rumination, purposive rumination, perceived social support, and personality type (introversion, neuroticism, psychoticism) were potential influencing factors of high PTSD-high alertness type ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:There is significant population heterogeneity in PTSD among patients undergoing severed finger replantation, which can be divided into "low PTSD-high avoidance type", "moderate PTSD-high alertness type", and "high PTSD-high alertness type". Nursing staff should conduct targeted interventions in the early stage based on factors such as the number of severed fingers, whether vascular crisis occurs after operation, level of rumination, personality type, to prevent and improve the occurrence of PTSD.

This study aims to investigate the function of lmo2363 gene in stress resistance of Liste-ria monocytogenes strain LM83-1.In this study,the lmo2363 gene deletion strain and complement-ation strain of Listeria monocytogenes were constructed using overlapping extended PCR and ho-mologous recombination techniques,and the growth ability,stress survival rate and biofilm forma-tion ability of wild,deletion strain and complementation strain were compared under different stress environments.lmo2363 gene deletion strain and complementation strain of Listeria monocy-togenes were successfully constructed in this experiment.The growth curves showed that the growth capacity of the deletion strain was weaker than the wild strain LM83-1 under 4 ℃,7％NaCl,10％NaCl,3.5％ethanol,4.0％ethanol and pH5 stress(P＜0.001).The results of stress survival test showed that the survival rate of the deletion strain was significantly lower than the wild strain after 1 h treatment with pH3 and 10 mmol/L H2 O2 stress(P＜0.010).The biofilm forming ability of the deletion strain was decreased compared with that of the wild strain(P＜0.050).This study confirmed that lmo2363 gene mediated the adaptation of LM to low temperature,high osmotic pressure,ethanol and acid stress environment and affected the formation of LM bio-film.This study laid a foundation for further exploring the function of lmo2363 gene in the stress resistance process of Listeria monocytogenes.

Objective:To investigate the effects of CP-31398 on proliferation and metastasis of gallbladder carcinoma cell lines expressing mutant P53GBC-SD and wild-type p53NOZ.Meth-ods:The effects of CP-31398 on the proliferation of wild-type and mutant p53 gallbladder carci-noma cells were detected by CCK8 cell proliferation assay and clonal formation assay.The effect of CP-31398 on cell cycle and apoptosis of gallbladder carcinoma was detected by flow cytometry.The effects of CP-31398 on the migration and invasion of gallbladder carcinoma cells were detected by scratch,cytoskeleton and Transwell assay.The effect of CP-31398 on the expression of p53 protein was detected by Western blot and the related mechanism was discussed.Results:In mutant P53GBC-SD cells,the proliferation of CCK8 cells showed that the proliferation rate of gallbladder cancer cells in CP-31398 treatment group was slower than that in control group(P＜0.01).The cycle experiment showed that compared with the control group,the proportion of cells in S phase in-creased in CP-31398 treatment group,and the proportion of cells in G0 and G1 phase decreased,so the cells were blocked in S phase(P＜0.001).Apoptosis experiment showed that the apoptosis rate of control group was lower than CP-31398 treatment group(P＜0.05).Transwell experiment showed that the number of cells passing through the cell compartment in the control group was higher than that in the CP-31398 treatment group.Western blot analysis showed that the expression of p53 pro-tein in CP-31398 treatment group was increased(P＜0.05).In wild-type p53NOZ cells,the prolifera-tion of CCK8 cells showed that the proliferation rate of gallbladder cancer cells in CP-31398 treat-ment group was slower than that in control group.The number of cell clones in the control group was higher than that in the CP-31398 treatment group(P＜0.001).The cycle test showed that the propor-tion of cells in G2 and M phases increased significantly,while the proportion of cells in G0 and G1 phases decreased,and the cells were blocked in G2 and M phases(P＜0.001).Apoptosis experiment showed that the apoptosis rate of control group was(14.04±3.08)％,and that of CP-31398 treat-ment group was(34.55±3.30)％(P＜0.01).Transwell experiment showed that the number of cells passing through the cell compartment in the control group was higher than that in the CP-31398 treatment group.Western blot analysis showed that the expression of p53 protein in CP-31398 treatment group was increased(P＜0.01).Conclusion:CP-31398 can effectively inhibit the prolif-eration and metastasis of gallbladder cancer cells,and is independent of p53 mutation,and CP-31398 has a good effect on NOZ gallbladder cancer cell lines expressing wild-type p53,which can be used as a new drug treatment for gallbladder cancer.
