ObjectiveTo understand the seropositivity of neutralizing antibodies (NAb) and low-level NAb against SARS-CoV-2 infection in the community residents, and to explore the impact of COVID-19 vaccination and SARS-CoV-2 infection on the levels of NAb in human serum. MethodsOn the ground of surveillance cohort for acute infectious diseases in community populations in Shanghai, a proportional stratified sampling method was used to enroll the subjects at a 20% proportion for each age group (0‒14, 15‒24, 25‒59, and ≥60 years old). Blood samples collection and serum SARS-CoV-2 NAb concentration testing were conducted from March to April 2023. Low-level NAb were defined as below the 25^th percentile of NAb. ResultsA total of 2 230 participants were included, the positive rate of NAb was 97.58%, and the proportion of low-level NAb was 25.02% (558/2 230). Multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated that age, infection history and vaccination status were correlated with low-level NAb (all P<0.05). Individuals aged 60 years and above had the highest risk of low-level NAb. There was a statistically significant interaction between booster vaccination and one single infection (aOR=0.38, 95%CI: 0.19‒0.77). Compared to individuals without vaccination, among individuals infected with SARS-CoV-2 once, both primary immunization (aOR=0.23, 95%CI: 0.16‒0.35) and booster immunization (aOR=0.12, 95%CI: 0.08‒0.17) significantly reduced the risk of low-level NAb; among individuals without infections, only booster immunization (aOR=0.28, 95%CI: 0.14‒0.52) showed a negative correlation with the risk of low-level NAb. ConclusionsThe population aged 60 and above had the highest risk of low-level NAb. Regardless of infection history, a booster immunization could reduce the risk of low-level NAb. It is recommended that eligible individuals , especially the elderly, should get vaccinated in a timely manner to exert the protective role of NAb.

Objective:To investigate the effect of bed board of carbon fiber for treatment combined with fixed bottom board on verification results of Portal Dosimetry(PD)dose of intensity-modulated radiation therapy(IMRT)plan of fixed field for cervical cancer.Methods:A total of 15 patients with cervical cancer who admitted to Nanjing First Hospital from January 2019 to January 2020 were retrospectively selected,and the IMRT plans of fixed field for all patients were designed.The radiation field with 180° gantry angle was selected for each case to make the corresponding PD dose verification plan,and each verification plan included two subfields:AA180_0 and AA180_1.Three types of materials were placed between the accelerator head and the electronic portal imaging device(EPID),which included material without carbon fiber,bed board with carbon fiber for treatment,and the combination of the bed board with carbon fiber for treatment and the fixed bottom board with carbon fiber,when the Clinac iX accelerator was used to conduct verification plan for each case.The γ passing rates of the subfields(AA180_0 and AA180_1)and the total field(AA180)among three kinds of conditions,which included material without carbon fiber,bed board with carbon fiber for treatment,and the combination of the bed board with carbon fiber for treatment and the fixed bottom board with carbon fiber,were compared and analyzed.Results:For the subfield AA180_0,the γ passing rates under three different material conditions were respectively(96.09±1.38)%,(90.48±2.24)%and(81.85±2.46)%.For the subfield AA180_1,the γ passing rates under the above conditions were respectively(96.05±1.06)%,(91.86±2.22)%and(86.26±2.74)%.For the total field AA180,the γ passing rates were respectively(90.78±1.40)%,(84.82±2.56)%and(78.49±3.18)%.The γ passing rates of the subfield AA180_0,subfield AA180_1,and the total field AA180 showed statistically significant differences among the three different material conditions(F=177.80,80.00,91.42,P<0.01).Compared with materials without carbon fiber,the γ passing rate of the total field AA180 of the combination of the bed board with carbon fiber for treatment and the fixed bottom board with carbon fiber significantly decreased by 12.29%.Conclusion:In the PD dose verification of IMRT for cervical cancer,the bed board with carbon fiber for treatment combined with the fixed bottom board will produce adverse effect for the verification results.The effect of the single use of bed board for treatment is relatively small.The combined use of the bed board with carbon fiber for treatment and the fixed bottom board will lead to a significant deterioration in the verification result of PD dose.

Reporting guidelines are structured checklists for researchers to follow when reporting spe-cific types of studies.As researches conducted in real-world settings to address practical issues,implementa-tion research has stringent requirements for the replicability of result and the transparency of reporting,making its reporting guidelines particularly important.This paper systematically introduces the reporting guidelines in the field of implementation science,outlines their classification systems and scopes of applica-tion,and focuses on explaining the core characteristics and functions of five key reporting guidelines,inclu-ding the Standards for Reporting Implementation Studies(StaRI),Reporting guidelines for implementation and operational research,the Template for Intervention Description and Replication(TIDieR),the Frame-work for Reporting Adaptations and Modifications-Enhanced(FRAME),and recommendations for specifying and reporting implementation strategies.Furthermore,combined with the PEDALs research paradigm in im-plementation science,this paper further clarifies the specific application pathways for reporting guidelines and discusses directions for refinement,aiming to provide references for researchers to select appropriate reporting guidelines.

Objective:The prediction model of postoperative recurrence of ovarian endometriosis cyst(OEM)was constructed to provide a reference for evaluating postoperative recurrence of OEM patients.Methods:The clinical,pathological and follow-up data of 342 patients who underwent the initial laparoscopic ovarian cystectomy for OEM at The Second Hospital of Hebei Medical University from January 1,2017 to October 31,2021 were retro-spectively analyzed.Based on univariate and multivariate Cox regression analysis,the relevant factors affecting OEM recurrence were identified.According to the results of multivariate analysis,a nomogram was drawn.The C index and receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve were used to test the efficiency of the prediction model.Results:The 2-year recurrence rate of OEM patients was 20.4%and the 5-year recurrence rate was 35.2%.Uni-variate and multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that menstrual cycle(HR 0.916,95%CI 0.860-0.976,P=0.006),delivery≥1(HR 0.376,95%CI 0.171-0.827,P=0.015),CA125≥100 U/ml(HR 1.790,95%CI 1.167-2.746,P=0.008),total cyst diameter≥10 cm(HR 2.254,95%CI 1.318-3.854,P=0.003),and postoperative medications(HR 0.434,95%CI 0.292-0.644,P=0.000)were associated with OEM recurrence and were included in the no-mogram prediction model.The C-index of the nomogram prediction model was 0.710(95%CI 0.665-0.754),and the area under the curve(AUC)of the ROC for OEM patients with recurrence at 2 years after surgery was 0.786 and 0.708 at 5 years.Conclusions:In this study,we developed a nomogram to predict the probability of recur-rence at 2 years and 5 years for OEM patients under 45 years who underwent conservative surgery,which has i-deal predictive performance and helps clinicians to screen high-risk patients,and thus give high-risk OEM patients additional attention and intervention.
