To establish a rapid Akabane virus(AKAV)antibody detection method in animals,the re-combination AKAV N protein was expressed by the expression system of Escherichia coli,puri-fied from the supernatant,and used to immunized New Zealand White rabbits.The polyclonal anti-body against AKAV N protein had a titer of 1∶8.192×107 and showed good reactivity.After opti-mizing the reaction conditions,an AKAV double antigen sandwich ELISA antibody detection method was established.This method can detect AKAV antibody in a variety of animals including cattles,sheep and goats.The method had no cross-reactivity with the positive serum of BTV,EHDV,BEV and PRV with the intra-and inter-batch coefficients of variation less than 10％.Com-pared with the AKAV blocking ELISA kit,the sensibility of the method was increased by 8-16 folds with a compliance rate of 93.33％and the κ value of 0.864.These results showed that the double antigen sandwich ELISA displayed strong specificity,high sensitivity and repeatability,which could provide technical suport for detection,the prevention and control of AKAV.

Objective To investigate the correlation between maternal serum folic acid(FA),monocyte chemoattractant protein-1(MCP-1),progesterone-induced blocking factor(PIBF)levels and embryonic development cessation in early pregnancy.Methods From December 2021 to December 2023,98 pregnant women with embryonic development cessation in early pregnancy admitted to the Second Hospital of Jingzhou were regarded as the cessation group,and 50 normal early pregnancy pregnant women who underwent pregnancy examinations during the same period were as the control group.General clinical data was collected and analyzed.Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA)was applied to detect serum levels of FA,MCP-1 and PIBF.Multivariate logistic regression was applied to analyze the influencing factors of early pregnancy embryo cessation of development.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was plotted to analyze the predictive value of serum FA,MCP-1,and PIBF for early embryonic development cessation in pregnancy.Pearson method was applied to analyze the correlation between serum FA,MCP-1,PIBF,progesterone(PROG),estradiol(E2)and β-human chorionic gonadotropin(β-HCG).Results Compared with the control group,the serum FA(9.51±1.21 nmol/L vs 11.32±1.56 nmol/L)and PIBF(295.46±30.22 ng/ml vs 342.14±36.97 ng/ml)levels in the cessation group were greatly reduced,while the serum MCP-1(1.02±0.15 mg/ml vs 0.82±0.11 mg/ml)level was greatly increased,and the differences were statistically significant(t=7.785,8.347,8.229,all P＜0.001).There were great statistical differences in the history of embryonic development cessation(75.64%vs 25.36%),PROG(13.32±1.81 ng/ml vs 23.65±2.74 ng/ml),E2(221.34±25.69 pmol/L vs 298.65±31.64 pmol/L),and β-HCG levels(5 323.62±536.85U/L vs 8 562.31±924.55 U/L)between the two groups(t/χ2=6.548～27.428,all P<0.05).Pregnant women's history of embryonic development cessation and elevated level of MCP-1 were risk factors for embryonic development cessation in early pregnancy(Wald χ2=4.239,4.613,all P<0.05),while elevated levels of β-HCG,FA and PIBF were protective factors for embryonic development cessation in early pregnancy(Wald χ2=4.476,4.423,5.974,all P<0.05).The AUC of FA,MCP-1,PIBF,and their combination in predicting early embryonic development cessation in pregnancy was 0.811,0.805,0.816 and 0.908,respectively.The combined prediction was greatly better than that of individual diagnosis of FA MCP-1,and PIBF(Z=2.749,2.381,1.993,all P<0.05).FA and PIBF were positively correlated with PROG,E2 and β-HCG(r=0.433～0.512,all P<0.05),while MCP-1 was negatively correlated with PROG,E2 and β-HCG(r=-0.432,-0.487,-0.458,all P<0.05).Conclusion The serum levels of FA and PIBF in pregnant women with embryonic development cessation in early pregnancy decrease,while the level of MCP-1 increases.These three factors are all influencing factors for embryonic development cessation in pregnant women,and have certain auxiliary predictive value for embryonic development cessation in early pregnancy.

Objective:To compare the testing effects of different testing methods in the functional inspection of precision surgical scissors and needle holders.Methods:By consulting relevant literature and professional books,three testing methods and materials for precision surgical scissors and needle holders were selected.The cutting performance of the precision surgical scissors were tested by gauze cloth,cotton wool,and silicone film method in the Interlock surgical instrument testing set.The clamping performance of precision needle holder was tested by using light,needle clips,and thread clamping method in the Interlock surgical instrument testing set.100 pieces of precision surgical scissors and needle holders which were qualified for cleaning and disinfection in the hospital were selected for effectiveness testing,and a self-made satisfaction questionnaire to investigate the satisfaction of surgeons with the use of instruments.Results:After 100 precision surgical scissors tested using three methods of gauze,cotton wool,and silicone film,the qualified number of cutting performance was 94,76,and 58,respectively,the difference was statistically significant(x2=36.526,P<0.05).The satisfaction rate of surgeons with the use of precision surgical scissors passed the silicone film test was the highest at 100%,followed by cotton wool cloth at 82.0%,and the gauze method at the worst at 67.0%,the difference was statistically significant(x2=48.439,P<0.05).After 100 precision needle holders were tested by using three methods of light irradiation,needle clamping,and wire clamping,the qualified number of clamping performance was 96,78,and 62,respectively,the difference was statistically significant(x2=38.160,P<0.05).The satisfaction rate of surgeons with the precision needle holders passed the clamp line test was the highest at 100.0%,followed by the clamp needle at 79.0%,and the worst under light at 62.0%,the difference was statistically significant(x2=57.705,P<0.05).Conclusion:The function and quality of precision surgical scissors and needle holders tested by the test objects in Interlock Surgical Instrument Test Suite can objectively and accurately reflect the functional status of surgical scissors and needle holders,provide reference for regular maintenance and upkeep of instruments,and ensure safe use of instruments.

Objective To establish a predictive model for survival outcomes of glioma patients based on both brain radiomics features from preoperative MRI multi-sequence images and clinical features.Methods We retrospectively analyzed the MRI images and clinical data of 388 glioma patients and extracted the radiomics features from the peritumoral edema zone,tumor core,and whole tumor on T1,T2,and T1-weighted contrast-enhanced(T1CE)and fluid attenuated inversion recovery(FLAIR)sequences.The cases were divided into a training set(271 cases)and a test set(117 cases).Random survival forest algorithms were used to select the radiomics features associated with overall survival(OS)in the training set to construct a radiomic score(Rad-score),based on which the patients were classified into high-and low-risk groups for Kaplan-Meier survival analysis.Cox proportional hazard regression models for the 3 different tumor zones were constructed,and their performance for predicting 1-and 3-year survival rates was evaluated using 5-fold cross-validation and AUC analysis followed by external validation using data from another 10 glioma patients.The best-performing model was used for constructing a nomogram for survival predictions.Results Five radiomics features from the tumor core,7 from the peritumoral edema zone,and 5 from the whole tumor were selected.In both the training and test sets,the high-and low-risk groups had significantly different OS(P<0.05),and age,IDH status and Rad-score were independent factors affecting OS.The combined model showed better performance than the Rad-score model with AUCs for 1-year and 3-year survival prediction of 0.750 and 0.778 in the training set,0.764 and 0.800 in the test set,and 0.938 and 0.917 in external validation,respectively.Conclusion The predictive model combining preoperative multi-modal MRI radiomics features and clinical features can effectively predict survival outcomes of glioma patients.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical application value of MR amide proton transfer weighted imaging (APTWI) in predicting the pathological grade of brainstem glioma (BSG).Methods:The data of 41 BSG patients in Beijing Tiantan Hospital, Capital Medical University from August 2019 to June 2020 who underwent both MRI and APTWI 2 weeks before surgery and had pathological grading results were retrospectively analyzed. According to the pathological results, 41 patients were classified into high-grade BSG (20 patients) and low-grade BSG (21 patients). Combined with conventional MR images, the signal intensity (%) of amide proton transfer (APT) in the parenchymal area of the tumor was obtained on APTWI images. χ 2 test or independent sample t-test was used to analyze the differences in gender distribution, age and APT signal intensity between patients with high and low grade BSG. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was drawn to predict the efficacy of APT signal intensity in the differential diagnosis of high and low grade BSG, and Youden index was calculated to obtain the optimal diagnostic threshold; the predictive ability of APT signal intensity was analyzed in combination with Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness of fit test. Results:There was no significant difference in age [(23±18) years, (20±17) years, t=0.97, P=0.340] and gender distribution (9/11, 9/12 for males/females, χ 2=0.02, P=0.890) between high-grade and low-grade BSG patients. The APT signal intensity of high-grade BSG [(3.9±0.9)%] was significantly higher than that of low-grade BSG [(2.8±0.9)%], and the difference had statistical significance ( t=4.16, P<0.001). The area under the ROC curve of APT signal intensity to distinguish high-grade and low grade BSG was 0.836, and with 2.85% as the optimal diagnostic threshold of APT signal intensity, its sensitivity for the diagnosis of high-grade BSG was 90.0% and specificity was 71.4%. The Hosmer-Lemeshow test showed that APTWI had a good predictive ability for BSG grade (χ 2=13.33, P=0.101). Conclusion:APTWI can be applied in distinguishing high grade BSG from low grade BSG, and has clinical value in predicting glioma grading.
