Objective To construct a library of human-derived anti-severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) single-chain variable fragments (scFv) and screen for broad-spectrum neutralizing antibodies to identify candidate molecules for the development of diagnostic and therapeutic agents. Methods Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were isolated from the peripheral blood of patients who had recovered from novel coronavirus infection. Total RNA was extracted from these PBMCs and reverse transcribed into cDNA, which was used as a template for constructing a human anti-SARS-CoV-2 scFv library. Phage display technology was used to screen for scFv antibodies specific to the SARS-CoV-2 S protein. Full-length IgG antibodies were synthesized through sequence analysis and human IgG expression, and their binding capacity and neutralizing activity against SARS-CoV-2 were evaluated. Results A human-derived scFv antibody library against SARS-CoV-2 with a capacity of 1.56×10⁷ CFU was successfully constructed. Two specific scFv antibodies were screened from this library and expressed as full-length IgG antibodies (IgG-A10 and IgG-G6). IgG-A10 exhibited strong neutralizing activity against both the original SARS-CoV-2 strain (WT) and the XBB subvariant of the Omicron variant. However, the neutralizing activity of this antibody against the JN.1 sub lineage of the Omicron BA.2.86 variant was moderate. Conclusion This study has successfully constructed a human anti-SARS-CoV-2 scFv antibody library from the peripheral blood of recovered patients, and screened and expressed anti-SARS-CoV-2 IgG antibodies with neutralizing activity, laying a foundation for the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of SARS-CoV-2 infection.

Objective:To establish a high-performance liquid chromatography(HPLC)method for the determina-tion of related substances in buprenorphine active pharmaceutical ingredient(API)using advanced ACD/Auto-Chrom method development software for comprehensive parameter simulation and design.Methods:An Agilent ZORBAX Eclipse Plus C18 column(4.6 mm × 150 mm,3.5 μm)was used with a mobile phase consisting of 40 mmol·L-1 potassium dihydrogen phosphate solution and acetonitrile in a gradient elution mode.The flow rate was set at 1.3 mL·min-1,the column temperature was maintained at 35 ℃,the detection wavelength was 240 nm,and the injection volume was 5 μL.Results:The impurities A,B,D,E,F,G,H,I,and J in buprenorphine were effectively separated from the main component.The linear ranges were 0.33-83.73,0.20-78.74,0.20-40.28,0.22-43.31,0.32-78.98,0.13-63.74,0.51-101.54,0.22-43.72,and 0.40-80.37 μg·mL-1,respectively.The limits of detection(LOD)were 0.10,0.06,0.06,0.06,0.09,0.04,0.15,0.07,and 0.12 μg·mL-1,respectively,while the limits of quantification(LOQ)were 0.33,0.20,0.20,0.22,0.32,0.13,0.51,0.22,and 0.40 μg·mL-1,respectively.The accuracy,precision,and robustness of the method met the required standards.Conclusion:This method is suitable for the determi-nation and quality control of related substances such as impurities A,B,D,E,F,G,H,I,and J in buprenorphine API.

Objective To investigate the value of enhanced magnetic resonance imaging(MRI)radiomics based on gadolinium ethoxybenzyl diethylenetriamine pentaacetic acid(Gd-EOB-DTPA)in predicting the histopathological grading of hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC)before surgery.Methods A total of 101 patients with HCC who were treated in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Kunming Medical University from January 2021 to June 2024 were selected as study subjects and randomly assigned to the training set(n=70)and the test set(n=31)in a ratio of 7∶3.Radiomics features were extracted from portal venous phase(PVP)and hepatobiliary phase(HBP)images,and support vector machine(SVM)image omics model was constructed after dimensionality reduction by least absolute shrinkage and selection operator logistic regression.Model performance was assessed by area under the curve(AUC),accuracy,sensitivity,and specificity.Results After feature screening,the SVM model was constructed by retaining the best image omics features of 2 HBP,5 PVP and 11 combined models.The AUC of PVP,HBP and PVP+HBP combined models were 0.870,0.914 and 0.952,respectively,showing a good ability to distinguish between high and low grade HCC.Conclusion Compared with the independent model,PVP+HBP combined model has better performance in predicting HCC histopathological grading,and can be used as a non-invasive auxiliary tool to help distinguish between high-grade and low-grade HCC before surgery.

Objective To investigate the effects of different administration times on the efficacy and safety of subcutaneous immunotherapy using dual mite extracts in patients with allergic rhinitis(AR).Methods This study was designed as a retrospective cohort analysis.Thirty-nine mite-sensitized AR patients who completed three years of standardized dual-mite subcutaneous immunotherapy(SCIT)were included.Based on self-selected and consistently maintained injection schedules,patients were non-randomly assigned to either a morning dosing group(MD group,8:00-12:00,n=19)or an afternoon dosing group(AD group,14:00-18:00,n=20),with further subgroup stratification conducted at 2-hour intervals.Nasal and ocular symptoms were evaluated before and after treatment using the visual analog scale(VAS),and all adverse reactions were systematically recorded.Results The AD group exhibited significantly greater improvement in nasal itching compared to the MD group(median difference:-2 vs.0,U=118.5,P=0.04,effect size r=0.33).The AD group also demonstrated favorable trends toward improved sneezing,nasal congestion,rhinorrhea,and total VAS score,although these differences did not reach statistical significance.In the subgroup analysis by 2-hour intervals,the 16:00-18:00 subgroup showed greater symptom relief than the 8:00-10:00 subgroup,though the difference was not statistically significant.No significant differences were observed between the two groups in the incidence of total,local,or systemic adverse reactions(P>0.05),and no moderate or severe systemic adverse events occurred.Conclusions This preliminary retrospective analysis indicates that afternoon administration of dual-mite SCIT,particularly between 16:00 and 18:00,may enhance the improvement of nasal symptoms without elevating safety concerns.The timing of SCIT administration could therefore represent a promising avenue for treatment optimization.

Objective To observe the application effect of a quantitative nursing management program in the operating room constructed based on risk assessment strategies for patients with osteochondroma. Methods Thirty patients who underwent osteochondroma surgery from July 2021 to June 2022 at Suqian Hospital Affiliated to Xuzhou Medical University were set as control group (receiving conventional nursing management), and 30 patients who underwent osteochondroma surgery from July 2022 to June 2023 were set as study group (receiving quantitative nursing management centered on risk assessment strategies). The perioperative indicators, psychological stress status, self-care ability, quality of life, and complication occurrence were compared between the two groups. Results The recovery time of gastrointestinal function, postoperative anal exhaust time, and hospital stay in the study group were (0.72±0.12), (1.71±0.32), and (21.32±3.47) days, respectively, which were shorter than (1.04±0.28), (2.02±0.42), and (28.02±4.02) days in the control group (P < 0.05). After nursing, the scores of the Self-rating Depression Scale and Self-rating Anxiety Scale in the study group were (36.87±5.64) and (32.42±6.82), respectively, which were lower than those (45.24±6.32) and (48.33±6.56) in the control group (P < 0.05). After nursing, the total scores of the Exercise of Self-Care Agency Scale (ESCA) and SF-36 Scale in the study group were (142.87±15.62) and (86.42±7.28), respectively, which were higher than (125.42±16.32) and (78.33±8.56) in the control group (P < 0.05). The total complication rate in the study group was 6.67%, which was lower than 26.67% in the control group (P < 0.05). Conclusion The quantitative nursing management program in the operating room constructed centered on risk assessment strategies can effectively improve the postoperative recovery effect of patients with osteochondroma, relieve psychological stress responses, enhance self-care ability and quality of life, and reduce the occurrence of complications.
