Objective:To analyze the genetic characteristics of coxsackievirus A16 (CVA16) related to hand, foot and mouth disease (HFMD) in Jiaxing from 2021 to 2023, and understand the biological and molecular evolutionary characteristics of CVA16 in this city.Methods:Real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR was used to detect enterovirus and its types in collected HFMD case samples. At the same time, virus isolation and cultivation were performed on positive samples using RD cells. Then high-throughput sequencing of the whole genome was performed on 23 strains of CVA16 identified from the isolated samples. Finally we obtained its whole genome sequence. DNAStar, MEGA 6.0, Simplot 3.5.1 and other bioinformatics software were used to compare and analyze the sequences, construct the phylogenetic tree of VP1 region, and realize the genotype composition. And these software were also used to analyze the homology of the whole genome nucleotide sequence and the encoded amino acids, while know well the amino acid mutation sites and gene recombination in the main regions.Results:The results showed that among the 1 836 HFMD specimens tested from 2021 to 2023, 1 432 (78.00%, 1 432/1 836) were positive for enterovirus general genes, of which 263 were positive for CVA16, accounting for 18.37% (263/1 432) of the confirmed positive cases. Twenty-three CVA16 strains were sequenced and all of them were B1 subtype, of which 6 strains belong to B1b and 17 strains belong to B1a, with B1a being dominant. B1a strains in Jiaxing showed genetic relatedness to strains isolated in Beijing, Yunnan, Guangzhou, Jiangsu and other places in 2018 to 2023, as well as strains from Vietnam, Thailand, and Australia from 2015 to 2017. B1b strains exhibited consistent amino acid mutations of L23M in the VP1 region and V217I in the VP2 region, while B1a strains exhibited amino acid mutations of S14N/D, T164K, and V251I in the VP1 region and R41H in the VP3 region. Compared with the prototype strain, the 23 strains of CVA16 in Jiaxing accumulated the largest number of amino acid mutations in the coding region, with 28 and 50 mutations in the VP1 and 3D regions, respectively. The recombination patterns of B1a and B1b strains were slightly different, with B1a type showing recombination with CVA8 in the 5′-UTR region instead of CVA4, B1a was similar to enterovirus A71 in most of P2 and P3 regions, and recombined with CVA5 in the 3D region of P3.Conclusions:The prevalent strain of CVA16 in Jiaxing may share a common trend of co-circulation and evolution with those in other provinces. The recombination mainly occurs in the 5′-UTR region and non-structural protein coding regions of P2 and P3. Continuous molecular surveillance of CVA16 is in need, and whole-genome sequencing can help understand the genetic variation, evolution, and recombination of strains.This information will provide a more robust basis for the monitoring and early warning, vaccine development, and prevention and control efforts against HFMD.

Objective:To analyze the accuracy of lung ultrasound and chest X-ray in the diagnosis of neonatal pulmonary disease.Methods:We prospectively collected newborns that needed chest X-ray examination to diagnose pulmonary disease from twelve neonatal intensive care units across the country between June 2019 and April 2020.Each newborn was examined by lung ultrasound within two hours after chest X-ray examination.All chest X-ray and lung ultrasound images were independently read by a radiologist and a sonographer.When there was a disagreement, a panel of two experienced physicians made a final diagnosis based on the clinical history, chest X-ray and lung ultrasound images.Results:A total of 1 100 newborns were enrolled in our study.The diagnostic agreement between chest X-ray and lung ultrasound(Cohen′s kappa coefficient=0.347) was fair.Lung ultrasound(area under the curve=0.778; 95% CI 0.753-0.803) performed significantly better than chest X-ray(area under the curve=0.513; 95% CI 0.483-0.543) in the diagnosis of transient tachypnea of the newborn( P<0.001). The accuracy of lung ultrasound in diagnosing neonatal respiratory distress syndrome, meconium aspiration syndrome, pneumonia and neonatal pulmonary atelectasis was similar to that of chest X-ray. Conclusion:Lung ultrasound, as a low-cost, simple and radiation-free auxiliary examination method, has a diagnostic accuracy close to or even better than that of chest X-ray, which may replace chest X-ray in the diagnosis of some neonatal lung diseases.It should be noted that both chest X-ray and lung ultrasound can only be used as auxiliary means for the diagnosis of lung diseases, and it is necessary to combine imaging with the clinical history and presentation.

OBJECTIVESince 1986, the reference of birth weight for gestational age has not been updated. The aim of this study was to set up Chinese neonatal network to investigate the current situation of birth weight in China, especially preterm birth weight, to develop the new reference for birth weight for gestational age and birth weight curve.

METHODA nationwide neonatology network was established in China. This survey was carried out in 63 hospitals of 23 provinces, municipalities and autonomous regions. We continuously collected the information of live births in participating hospitals during the study period of 2011-2014. Data describing birth weight and gestational age were collected prospectively. Newborn's birth weight was measured by electronic scale within 2 hours after birth when baby was undressed. The evaluation of gestational age was based on the combination of mother's last menstrual period, ultrasound in first trimester and gestational age estimation by gestational age scoring system.

STATISTICAL ANALYSISthe growth curve was drawn by using LMSP method, which was conducted in GAMLSS 1.9-4 software package in R software 2.11.1.

RESULTA total of 159 334 newborn infants were enrolled in this study. There were 84 447 male and 74 907 female. The mean birth weight was (3 232 ± 555) g, the mean birth weight of male newborn was (3 271 ± 576) g, the mean weight of female newborn was (3 188 ± 528) g. The test of the variables' distribution suggested that the distribution of gestational age and birth weight did not fit the normal distribution, the optimal distribution for them was BCT distribution. The Q-Q plot test and worm plot test suggested that this curve fitted the distribution optimally. The male and female neonatal birth weight curve was developed using the same method.

CONCLUSIONUsing GAMLSS method to establish nationwide neonatal birth weight curve, and the first time to update the birth weight reference in recent 28 years.

Objective To evaluate the safety of endoscopic ligation of gastric and colic full-thickness wall with nylon loops.Methods Endoscopic ligation of full gastric and colic wall with detachable nylon loops, assisted by laparotomy, were performed in 4 dogs.Ligation healing was assessed on 3, 7, 10and 17 days after the procedure.Results All animals recovered after the procedure, without any clinical signs of infection or hemorrhage.Postoperative examination did not reveal gastric or colonic perforation, or local abscess.Loop ligature showed ulcer-like lesion.Histopathology revealed muscularis propria disruption, granulation tissue bridging the site of ligation and formation of scar tissue.Regenerative mucosa coyered the surface of the ligature completely 17 days after the operation.Conclusion Endoscopic ligation of gastric and colic full-thickness wall with detachable nylon loops is safe.Its application can be extended to other fields.

Objective To evaluate the effects and safety of uterine artery embolization for uterine leiomyoma. Methods Total of 185 patients with uterine leiomyoma were treated by UAE. They were followed for one to 6 years to observe the changes of leiomyoma size and improvement in clinical symptoms. Ovarian function was evaluated in 44 cases. Results Bilateral embolization of uterine arteries was performed in 185 patients. Follow-up of 1 ～6 years for 292 leiomyoma indicated that one to 9 months after embolization, shrinkage of leiomyoma size was the most significant factor. One year after embolization, leiomyoma sizes decreased a little. Shrinkage of submucous leiomyoma was more significant than that of intratumoral one, and the latter was more significant than subserous one. Shrinkage of leiomyoma with large size ( volume ≥ 150cm~3) was less than that of small one. Menorrhagia, anemia and pressure symptoms were all resolved. There was no significant difference between pre- and post embolization ovarian hormone level. Conclusions The significant reduction in leiomyoma volume and resolution of clinical symptoms confirmed that the treatment validity of symptomatic leiomyomas by UAE. UAE is an effective therapeutic procedure which has no adverse effect on the ovarian function.
