Objective This study aimed to investigate the genetic diversity, differentiation, and population structure of Aedes albopictus across different geographical regions in Shandong Province, and to explore the relationship between genetic diversity and geographical distribution. Methods Between July and August 2024, ten Ae. albopictus populations were sampled from seven cities in Shandong Province. Genomic DNA was extracted from individual mosquitoes, and the mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I(COⅠ)gene was amplified using PCR and sequenced. The obtained sequences were verified using BLAST and analyzed with MAFFT, MEGA 11, DnaSP v6.12, Arlequin 3.5, PopART 1.7, STRUCTURE 2.3.4 and the R packages adegenet and vegan to assess genetic diversity and population structure. Results A total of 229 COⅠ sequences(662 bp) was obtained, revealing ten variable sites with no insertions or deletions. The overall base composition showed an AT bias of 67.7%. Haplotype analysis identified 11 haplotypes, with Hap2 being the dominant and most widely distributed haplotype across all populations. Neutrality tests showed significant population expansion only in the Rizhao population. Mantel testing result revealed that geographical distance does not significantly impede gene flow. Overall, genetic differentiation among populations was low, indicating frequent gene flow. When combined with additional samples from Shanghai, Fujian, Guangdong, Yunnan, Hainan and Guangxi, STRUCTURE, UPGMA and DAPC analyses revealed two primary genetic clusters of Ae. albopictus. Conclusions Ae. albopictus populations in Shandong Province exhibit frequent gene flow, low genetic differentiation, and relatively low overall genetic diversity. However, the Rizhao population showed signs of recent expansion, highlighting the need for enhanced surveillance and targeted control measures in this area.

To investigate the positivity rates of specific antibodies, including parietal cell antibody (PCA) and anti-inner factor antibody (IFA), in a community population in Xinjiang for autoimmune gastritis (AIG), determine the prevalence of AIG, and analyze the correlations of PCA and IFA with clinical characteristics, pepsinogen (PG), gastrin 17 (G17), and A cross-sectional survey was conducted using stratified random cluster sampling in community populations across 10 regions of Xinjiang from January 2022 to December 2023. General information was collected via a self-designed questionnaire, and fasting venous blood samples were obtained to measure laboratory parameters including PCA, IFA, PG Ⅰ, PG Ⅱ, PG Ⅰ/PG Ⅱ ratio, and G17. The positivity rates of PCA and IFA and the prevalence of AIG were calculated. Spearman correlation analysis was used to assess the relationships of PCA and IFA with PG Ⅰ, PG Ⅱ, PG Ⅰ/PG Ⅱ ratio, and G17. The diagnostic efficacy of PCA and IFA for atrophic gastritis was evaluated using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves, and multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed to identify factors influencing PCA and IFA positivity. A total of 2018 community participants were included, comprising 972 males (48.17%) and 1046 females (51.83%), with a mean age of 42±19 years. The predominant ethnic groups were Han (42.22%) and Kazakh (33.10%). Hp-Ab positivity was observed in 1244 cases (61.65%). Serological criteria for atrophic gastritis were met in 56 cases (2.78%). PCA positivity was found in 253 cases (12.54%), IFA positivity in 30 cases (1.49%), and dual positivity in 11 cases (0.55%). A total of 617 participants (30.57%) voluntarily underwent endoscopic examination, among whom 7 cases (1.13%) were histopathologically confirmed as AIG. Positivity rates for PCA and IFA varied among ethnic groups, with the highest rates observed in the Kirgiz population (23.53% and 5.88%, respectively). Spearman correlation analysis revealed that PCA was negatively correlated with the PG Ⅰ/PG Ⅱ ratio ( The positivity rate of PCA is relatively high in the community population in Xinjiang and varies across different ethnic groups, whereas the positivity rate of IFA is lower than that of PCA. Age, history of alcohol consumption, history of allergies, and history of thyroid disease are associated with PCA positivity, while no correlation was found between Hp-Ab and PCA or IFA. The prevalence of histopathologically confirmed AIG among participants undergoing endoscopic examination is 1.13%.

Objective:To evaluate the relationship between preoperative gut microbiota and post-operative ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting.Methods:This was a secondary analysis of a previous research project study. Patients who received invasive mechanical ventilation treatment after elective off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting at the Second Hospital of Hebei Medical University from April to September 2023 were selected and divided into VAP group and non-VAP group based on whether VAP occurred after surgery. Fecal samples were collected from patients before surgery, and 16S rRNA gene sequencing was used to analyze the characteristics of preoperative gut microbiota in the two groups. The differences in the diversity of gut microbiota between the two groups were compared. The linear discriminant analysis was used to identify the gut microbiota with significant differences between groups (differential bacteria), and logistic regression analysis was conducted to assess the association between differential bacteria and VAP. Receiver operating characteristic curves were drawn to analyze the predictive value of the differential bacteria for VAP.Results:A total of 79 patients were finally included, with 25 in VAP group and 54 in non-VAP group. The Beta diversity analysis showed statistically significant differences between VAP group and non-VAP group (pseudo- F=2.00, P=0.002). The linear discriminant analysis indicated that Bifidobacterium, Blautia and Megamonas were enriched in non-VAP group, while Klebsiella was enriched in VAP group. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the relative abundance of Bifidobacterium was a protective factor for postoperative VAP ( OR=0.32, 95% confidence interval [ CI] 0.15-0.71, P=0.005), and the relative abundance of Klebsiella was a risk factor for postoperative VAP ( OR=2.49, 95% CI 1.143-5.43, P=0.022). The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of the relative abundance of Bifidobacterium for predicting VAP was 0.80 (95% CI 0.69-0.90, P<0.001) and of the relative abundance of Klebsiella was 0.70 (95% CI 0.57-0.83, P=0.005). Conclusions:Bifidobacterium is a protective factor, while Klebsiella is a risk factor for postoperative VAP in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting, and the relative abundance of both bacteria has a certain predictive value for VAP.
