The greatest monthly count of outbreak was 18 (58.06%) in September, followed by 3 outbreaks (9.68%) in March and October. A total of 244 swab samples were collected, 169 samples were positive for respiratory viruses, the positive rate was 69.26%, 121 samples were positive for RSV,from 31 respiratory syncytical virus outbreaks 57 and samples were positive for other respiratory viruses(9 samples were positive for two respiratory viruses). A toral of 14(45.16%) outbreaks are caused by RSV alone, 17 outbreaks (54.84%) were caused by RSV and other respiratory viruses. Conclusions Most RSV outbreaks in kindergarten and school are reported after 2020 in Shenzhen, most RSV outbreaks occur in kindergarten, peak seasons of RSV outbreaks are autumn and spring.

Background: The genetic basis for hyperglycaemia in pregnancy remain unclear. This study aimed to uncover the genetic determinants of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and investigate their applications. Methods: We performed a meta-analysis of genome-wide association studies (GWAS) for GDM in Chinese women (464 cases and 1,217 controls), followed by de novo replications in an independent Chinese cohort (564 cases and 572 controls) and in silico replication in European (12,332 cases and 131,109 controls) and multi-ethnic populations (5,485 cases and 347,856 controls). A polygenic risk score (PRS) was derived based on the identified variants. Results: Using the genome-wide scan and candidate gene approaches, we identified four susceptibility loci for GDM. These included three previously reported loci for GDM and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) at MTNR1B (rs7945617, odds ratio [OR], 1.64; 95% confidence interval [CI],1.38 to 1.96]), CDKAL1 (rs7754840, OR, 1.33; 95% CI, 1.13 to 1.58), and INS-IGF2-KCNQ1 (rs2237897, OR, 1.48; 95% CI, 1.23 to 1.79), as well as a novel genome-wide significant locus near TBR1-SLC4A10 (rs117781972, OR, 2.05; 95% CI, 1.61 to 2.62; Pmeta=7.6×10-9), which has not been previously reported in GWAS for T2DM or glycaemic traits. Moreover, we found that women with a high PRS (top quintile) had over threefold (95% CI, 2.30 to 4.09; Pmeta=3.1×10-14) and 71% (95% CI, 1.08 to 2.71; P=0.0220) higher risk for GDM and abnormal glucose tolerance post-pregnancy, respectively, compared to other individuals. Conclusion Our results indicate that the genetic architecture of glucose metabolism exhibits both similarities and differences between the pregnant and non-pregnant states. Integrating genetic information can facilitate identification of pregnant women at a higher risk of developing GDM or later diabetes.

Objective To understand the current situation of healthcare-associated infection(HAI)in China,pro-vide data support and decision-making basis for formulating scientific and effective strategies for HAI prevention and control.Methods A nationwide cross-sectional survey on HAI was conducted among various types and levels of medical institutions in China according to a unified protocol of bedside surveys and case investigations.Results In 2024,a total of 5 736 medical institutions and 2 751 765 patients were surveyed.Among them,34 889 HAI cases were identified,with a prevalence rate of 1.27％.The number of HAI episodes was 38 032,and case prevalence rate was 1.38％.The prevalence rate of HAI in medical institutions in different regions of China ranged from 0.66％to 2.35％.Among medical institutions of different scales,those with a bed capacity of ≥900 had the high-est incidence of HAI,reaching 1.65％.The most common infection site was the lower respiratory tract(44.66％),followed by the urinary tract(12.94％),surgical site(9.32％),upper respiratory tract(7.02％),and bloodstream infection(5.78％).The top 3 departments with the highest HAI rates were the general intensive care unit(10.02％),department of neurosurgery(5.51％),and department(group)of hematology(5.34％).A total of 23 238 strains of HAI pathogens were detected,with 10 714 strains(46.10％)from lower respiratory tract speci-mens.The top 5 detected strains were Klebsiella pneumoniae(14.76％),Pseudomonas aeruginosa(13.33％),Escherichia coli(12.79％),Acinetobacter baumannii(9.23％),and Staphylococcus aureus(7.88％).231 944 pa-tients underwent class Ⅰ incision surgery were monitored,with 1 647 cases experienced surgical site infection,and the prevalence rate of surgical site infection was 0.71％.The number of patients who should undergo pathogen de-tection(patients receiving therapeutic and therapeutic combined prophylactic antimicrobial agents)was 715 179,while the actual number was 480 492,with a pathogen detection rate of 67.18％.425 225 patients received patho-genic detection before treatment,with a detection rate of 59.46％.Conclusion The overall HAI prevalence in Chi-na is lower,showing disparities among medical institutions of different regions and scales.Therefore,precise imple-mentation of measures is necessary for HAI prevention and control,with a focus on high-risk institutions and high-risk departments,key areas,and critical procedures.All levels of medical institutions should continuously reduce the incidence of HAI by strengthening monitoring,standardizing the use of antimicrobial agents,and reinforcing basic HAI prevention and control measures.

Objective:To investigate the clinical effect of transposition of gracilis muscle flap in repairing urethral perineal fis-tula after Miles operation.Methods:The clinical data of 3 patients with urethral perineal fistula treated in the Second Affiliated Hos-pital of Zhejiang University from September 2023 to November 2024 were analyzed retrospectively.All patients were male,aged from 59 to 68 years(mean 63 years).All patients underwent Miles operation because of low rectal cancer.Urethral perineal fistula occurred after 2 months to 13 years of the operation.The underlying comorbidities included diabetes(2/3),preoperative chemoradiotherapy(1/3),and chemotherapy alone(1/3).The endourethral fistula was located in the apical and membranous part of the prostate,with a diameter of 1.5-2.0 cm and a mean of 1.7 cm.Suprapubic cystostomy was performed one month before operation.In all 3 cases,perineal inverted"Y"incision was taken under general anesthesia to expose urethral fistula,cut off necrotic tissue and suture urethral fistula.The gracilis muscle of the right thigh was taken and turned through the perineal subcutaneous tunnel.and 6 stitches were suture at the urethral fistula.Results:The operations of all 3 patients were completed successfully.The follow-up period ranged from 2 months to 12 months,with an average of 8 months.There was no case of urinary incontinence after removal of catheter 3 weeks after operation.In two patients,urethrography was reviewed 1 month after surgery to show no fistula residue and urethral stenosis,and the fistula was removed.In one patient with a history of radiotherapy,urethrography was reviewed 1 month after surgery to show a small amount of contrast overflow around the urethra,and urethrography was reviewed again 3 months after surgery to show no contrast over-flow around the urethra.All the 3 patients had no disturbance of movement of the right lower limb,and the pain of different degrees of thigh incision was acceptable and basically relieved half a month after operation.Conclusion:Gracilis muscle flap is one of the ef-fective methods for repairing urethral perineal fistula after Miles operation,which has a precise surgical result and few complications.

Objective:This study aimed to explore the molecular mechanisms of the maladaptation of H3N2 influenza virus in chicken embryos, provide a theoretical basis for the restoration of H3N2 influenza vaccine production in chicken embryos.Methods:Samples of respiratory secretions from patients with influenza-like symptoms (Influenza-like Illness, ILI) caused by H3N2 influenza virus were inoculated into chicken embryos and Madin-Darby Canine Kidney cells (MDCK), respectively. After isolating the virus, hemagglutination experiments were conducted to detect hemagglutination titers and hemagglutination inhibition experiments were used to compare antigenic differences; further, whole-genome sequencing of H3N2 influenza virus was performed using second-generation high-throughput gene sequencing (Next Generation High-Throughput Gene Sequencing, NGS), and key amino acid sites of mutations were identified through sequence alignment; combined with sialic acid receptor binding experiments, the differences in the binding of wild-type and mutant receptor binding sites (RBS) to sialic acid receptors were compared; finally, molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulation method were used to explore the specific molecular mechanisms of how mutation sites affect the differences in the affinity of the RBS pocket for sialic acid receptors.Results:The hemagglutination assay result indicated that both chicken embryos and MDCK cells could isolate the influenza virus, and the hemagglutination inhibition test showed that no antigenic differences were produced in the isolated strains. NGS analysis revealed that the H3N2 virus underwent an F195Y mutation in the (RBS) region of the hemagglutinin (HA) protein after adaptation through chicken embryo passages. Receptor-binding experiments demonstrated that the F195Y mutation enhanced the virus′s binding ability to α2, 3-linked sialic acid glycan (Neu5Acα2-3Galβ1-4GlcNAcβ-PAA, 3′SLN), while the mutation did not affect the affinity of the RBS pocket for α2, 6-linked sialic acid glycan (Neu5Acα2-6Galβ1-4GlcNAcβ-PAA, 6′SLN). Molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulation result indicate that the F195Y mutation, by replacing a hydrophobic amino acid with a hydrophilic one, leads to a significant decrease in the structure of the RBS pocket, enhancing the binding stability of the H3N2 influenza virus with α2, 3-sln. This is specifically manifested by an increase in binding time and an increase in the number of hydrogen bonds at the RBS site with the receptor. Furthermore, the F195Y mutation does not alter the binding of the virus to other receptors.Conclusions:The F195Y mutation in the RBS pocket of H3N2 influenza virus is a key site affecting the viral chicken embryo inadaptability.

Turning to critical illness is a common stage of various diseases and injuries before death. Patients usually have complex health conditions, while the treatment process involves a wide range of content, along with high requirements for doctor′s professionalism and multi-specialty teamwork, as well as a great demand for time-sensitive treatments. However, this is not matched with critical care professionals and the current state of medical care in China. Telemedicine, which shortens the distance of medical professionals and the gap of disease diagnosis and treatments in various regions through electronic information, can effectively solve the current problem. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a standardized, high-quality visualization telemedicine round system .Therefore, experts have been organized to search domestic and foreign literature on telemedicine round for critically ill patients and to form this consensus based on clinical experiences so as to further improve the level of critical care treatments in regions.

Objective:To analyze the functional outcomes of arthrodesis for the first metatarsophalangeal joint.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted to analyze the 21 patients who had undergone arthrodesis for the first metatarsophalangeal joint at Department of Foot and Ankle Surgery, Beijing Jishuitan Hospital from August 2013 to October 2019. The cohort included 6 males and 15 females. One patient underwent bilateral surgery, 10 cases the left side surgery and 10 cases the right side surgery. Their ages averaged (63.1±9.2) years. There were 12 cases of simple hallux valgus, 5 cases of rheumatoid arthritis combined with hallux valgus, and 4 cases of gout combined with hallux valgus. The visual analog scale (VAS) pain score, American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) forefoot score, foot function index (FFI) score, hallux valgus angle (HVA), and intermetatarsal angle (IMA) were compared between preoperation and the last follow-up. The proximal phalangeal inclination angle (PPIA) was measured postoperatively. Postoperative satisfaction was evaluated using the Coughlin rating scale. Complications were documented.Results:All patients were followed up for 71.0 (69.8, 75.0) months. In all patients at the last follow-up, VAS [1(0, 3) points], FFI [4.8 (1.6, 8.6) points], HVA [23.4° (14.3°, 28.5°)], and IMA (9.6°±3.2°) were significantly lower than the preoperative values [4 (3, 7) points, 30.4 (16.7, 46.8) points, 43.5° (31.5°, 48.2°), and 13.0°±4.5°], and the AOFAS forefoot score [80.0 (70.8, 90.0) points] was significantly higher than the preoperative one [46.0 (32.8, 55.3) points] ( P<0.05). The postoperative PPIA was 7.7°±10.1°. According to the Coughlin rating scale, 12 cases were rated as excellent, 5 as good, 2 as fair, and 3 as poor. All patients reported relief from painful plantar calluses, most ones experienced complete resolution of plantar calluses, and some ones had stiffness of the metatarsophalangeal joint after fusion. Conclusion:Arthrodesis for the first metatarsophalangeal joint is a reliable treatment for degenerative changes in the metatarsophalangeal joint, because it can well restore the postoperative foot function, significantly relieve pain, and lead to high patient satisfaction.
