Bovine rotavirus(BRV)is an important pathogen causing diarrhea in calves.To understand the genomic charac-teristics and genetic variations in bovine rotavirus,and to further enrich data on the biological characteristics of rotavirus,we aimed to amplify 11 gene segments of the isolated and cultured G6P[1]bovine rotavirus BLL strain,perform whole genome se-quencing,and analyze the molecular characteristics.MEGA7.0 and DNAMAN software were used for homology and typing a-nalysis,and the whole genome phylogenetic tree was constructed to analyze genetic evolution relationships.The complete geno-type of the BLL strain was G6-P[1]-I2-R2-C2-M2-A3-N2-T6-E2-H3.Phylogenetic analysis of the VP7 and VP4 genes of the BLL strain showed that the VP7 gene had the highest homology with RVA/Cow-wt/HB01/China/2021,and the VP4 gene of the BLL strain was in the same branch as RVA/Human-tc/ISR/Ro8059/1995.From the sequence alignment of VP8*amino acids,the sialic acid domain of the BLL strain was found to be similar to that in other P[1]strains,but different from those in other types of strains,except for residue 189,which was the same as that in Ro8059 but different from that in other strains.The results suggested that the BLL strain might potentially infect humans.Therefore,continued monitoring and study of the biological characteristics of this strain are necessary to provide more information and evidence supporting further research on the cross-species transmission of group A rotavirus in China.

Objective:To investigate the clinical and pathological characteristics, prognostic factors, and treatment outcomes of bladder adenocarcinoma.Methods:The data of 177 bladder adenocarcinoma patients treated at Renji Hospital, Shanghai Jiaotong University School of Medicine from January 2003 to December 2023, and 2 687 bladder adenocarcinoma patients from the SEER database (2000—2021) were reviewed retrospectively. The clinicopathological and prognostic characteristics were compared between the two cohorts. Patients with urachal adenocarcinoma or primary bladder adenocarcinoma were included, while metastatic bladder adenocarcinoma from other sites and urothelial carcinoma with glandular components were excluded. The Chi-square test was used for comparison of categorical data, and propensity score matching (1∶1) was applied to match baseline data between the Renji and SEER cohorts. Kaplan-Meier survival curves were generated, and log-rank tests were used for comparisons. Univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses were performed using the survival R package, with P-values calculated via Wald tests. Results:The proportion of localized bladder adenocarcinoma was significantly higher in the Renji cohort than in the SEER cohort [61.0% (108/177) vs. 19.4% (521/2 687), P<0.001], and mucinous adenocarcinoma was more common in Renji cohort [33.3% (59/177) vs. 22.6% (607/2 687), P<0.001]. After matching for baseline factors, including SEER stage and pathological grade, survival analysis revealed that the Renji cohort patients had slightly better survival compared to the SEER cohort [median survival: 55.4 (24.1, 196.2) months vs. 39.2 (13.6, 137.4)months, P=0.033]. Multivariate Cox analysis identified SEER stage [Renji cohort: HR=3.83 (95% CI 1.62-9.07), P=0.002; SEER cohort: HR=3.67 (95% CI 3.13-4.31), P<0.001] and pathological grade [Renji cohort: HR = 2.76 (95% CI 1.54-4.95), P=0.001; SEER cohort: HR=1.46 (95% CI 1.29-1.65), P<0.001] as independent prognostic factors. In the Renji cohort, no significant differences were observed in the median progression-free survival [40.1 (19.5, 91.6) months vs. 40.9 (12.8, not reached)months, P=0.976] and overall survival [79.3 (37.1, 195.8) months vs. 53.9 (16.4, 129.5)months, P=0.374] between patients receiving adjuvant chemotherapy and those not receiving it. However, among patients with lymph node-positive bladder adenocarcinoma, adjuvant chemotherapy significantly improved both progression-free survival [40.1 (38.2, 75.4) months vs. 12.2 (3.1, 12.2)months, P=0.004] and overall survival [68.2 (46.2, 84.5)months vs. 28.1 (4.3, 28.3)months, P=0.006]. Conclusions:Bladder adenocarcinoma is rare and associated with poor prognosis. Compared to the SEER cohort, Renji cohort patients had more localized disease, with no significant differences in other features. SEER stage and pathological grade were independent prognostic factors in both cohorts. Lymph node-positive bladder adenocarcinoma patients in the Renji cohort benefited significantly from adjuvant chemotherapy.

Objective To analyze the factors associated with pain after arthroscopic rotator cuff bridge suture.Methods According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria,the data of 112 patients with unilateral rotator cuff injury who received arthroscopic bridge suture in our department were collected and were investigated in the form of telephone follow-up.In this study,SPSS 23.0 was used to input data and conduct statistical analysis.Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the correlation between the above influencing factors and postoperative pain.Results A total of 112 patients were included for statistical analysis,single factor analysis revealed,including course of disease,smoking history,preoperative University of California,Los Angeles(UCLA)score,Constant score,numeric rating scale(NRS),size of rotator cuff tear,whether it was full-thickness tear and degree of tendon retraction might be related to postoperative pain(P<0.05).The age,gender,body mass index(BMI),drinking history,diabetes and hypertension were not related to postoperative pain(P>0.05).Multiple linear regression analysis concluded that there were four factors related to postoperative pain,and the correlation degree was preoperative NRS,preoperative UCLA score,tear size and smoking history.Conclusion The causes of postoperative pain after arthroscopic rotator cauff repair are complex and diverse.Analyzing the cause of postoperative pain can effectively reduce the pain of patients and promote the recovery of shoulder joint function.

Objective To investigate the toxicokinetic differences of 3,4-methylenedioxy-N-methylamphetamine(MDMA)and its metabolite 4,5-methylene dioxy amphetamine(MDA)in rats af-ter single and continuous administration of MDMA,providing reference data for the forensic identifica-tion of MDMA.Methods A total of 24 rats in the single administration group were randomly divided into 5,10 and 20 mg/kg experimental groups and the control group,with 6 rats in each group.The ex-perimental group was given intraperitoneal injection of MDMA,and the control group was given intraperi-toneal injection of the same volume of normal saline as the experimental group.The amount of 0.5 mL blood was collected from the medial canthus 5 min,30 min,1 h,1.5 h,2 h,4 h,6 h,8 h,10 h,12 h after administration.In the continuous administration group,24 rats were randomly divided into the experi-mental group(18 rats)and the control group(6 rats).The experimental group was given MDMA 7 d by continuous intraperitoneal injection in increments of 5,7,9,11,13,15,17 mg/kg per day,respectively,while the control group was given the same volume of normal saline as the experimental group by in-traperitoneal injection.On the eighth day,the experimental rats were randomly divided into 5,10 and 20 mg/kg dose groups,with 6 rats in each group.MDMA was injected intraperitoneally,and the con-trol group was injected intraperitoneally with the same volume of normal saline as the experimental group.On the eighth day,0.5 mL of blood was taken from the medial canthus 5 min,30 min,1 h,1.5 h,2 h,4 h,6 h,8 h,10 h,12 h after administration.Liquid chromatography-triple quadrupole tandem mass spectrometry was used to detect MDMA and MDA levels,and statistical software was employed for data analysis.Results In the single-administration group,peak concentrations of MDMA and MDA were reached at 5 min and 1 h after administration,respectively,with the largest detection time limit of 12 h.In the continuous administration group,peak concentrations were reached at 30 min and 1.5 h af-ter administration,respectively,with the largest detection time limit of 10 h.Nonlinear fitting equations for the concentration ratio of MDMA and MDA in plasma and administration time in the single-administration group and continuous administration group were as follows:T=10.362C-1.183,R2=0.974 6;T=7.397 3C-0.694,R2=0.961 5(T:injection time;C:concentration ratio of MDMA to MDA in plasma).Conclusions The toxicokinetic data of MDMA and its metabolite MDA in rats,obtained through single and continuous administration,including peak concentration,peak time,detection time limit,and the relationship between concentration ratio and administration time,provide a theoretical and data foundation for relevant forensic identification.

Objective To explore the clinical value of anti-Müllerian hormone(AMH)to optimize endocrine therapy for peri-menopausal early breast cancer.Methods Two hundred and four patients of pre-menopausal breast cancer aged 45-55 years old between 2020 and 2023 were enrolled,and AMH≤0.1 ng/mL was considered as cut-off value for menopause.Switching from selective estrogen receptor modulator(SERM)to aromatase inhibitor aromatase inhibitor(AI)and initial endocrine therapy regimens were based on AMH,follicle-stimulating hormone(FSH)and estradiol(E2).Results Pre-chemotherapy AMH level was significantly negatively correlated with FSH level(P<0.001).Among 100 cases who were amenorrhea for one year during SERM treatment,42 cases did not have AMH testing.Fourteen out of the 42 cases switched to AI within one year,and ovarian function recovery(OFR)occurred in 2 cases after AI switching.Fifteen cases with AMH>0.1 ng/mL did not switch to AI within one year.Forty among 43 cases with AMH≤0.1 ng/mL switched to AI,after a significantly shorter median SERM treatment duration(3.15 months vs.8.14 months,P<0.001)and a significantly lower OFR rate(0 vs.12.5%,P=0.023)compared with those who did not test AMH but switched to AI.AMH≤0.1 ng/mL was an independent risk factor of transition to menopause shortly in peri-menopausal patients(OR=35.857,P<0.001).Among 104 cases with AMH tested before adjuvant chemotherapy,69 cases had AMH>0.1 ng/mL.Thirty-one out of the 69 cases were treated with ovarian function suppression(OFS)initially and 38 with SERM initially.Thirty-five cases with AMH≤0.1 ng/mL were all treated with SERM initially,with a higher rate of switching to AI(71.4%vs.23.7%,P<0.001)and a shorter SERM treatment duration(6.52 months vs.13.56 months,P=0.016)compared with the 38 cases(AMH>0.1 ng/mL)treated initially with SERM.After a median 30-month follow-up,no recurrence was observed in these thirty-five cases treated with SERM initially and AMH≤0.1 ng/mL,just like in OFS group.And they had a tendency of improved survival outcome compared with those treated with SERM initially and AMH>0.1 ng/mL(Log Rank P=0.076).Conclusion AMH could evaluate and predict menopause accurately,resulting in optimizing endocrine therapy for peri-menopausal patients effectively and safely.

Hereditary breast cancer refers to breast cancer with a genetic susceptibility gene.PTEN germline mutations are rare in breast cancer,but patients with PTEN mutations have a high risk of breast cancer.In 2021,A young patient with bilateral breast cancer was admitted to the Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital,Fudan University.Due to bilateral multiple breast lumps,she underwent Vacuum-Assisted Breast Biopsy,which was pathologically confirmed as right ductal carcinoma in situ,left breast invasive carcinoma.The patient had multiple neoplasms in bilateral axillary region skin,neck skin and bilateral inguinal regiona skin,and the second-generation sequencing results of peripheral blood genes showed PTEN gene mutation.Combined with family history,the patient was diagnosed with Cowden syndrome(CS).Such patients should be paid attention to cancer risk management and family management,so as to attain early diagnosis and treatment.

Objective: To identify the main metals involved in cognitive impairment in the Chinese oldest old, and explore the association between these metal exposures and cognitive impairment. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted on 1 568 participants aged 80 years and older from Healthy Aging and Biomarkers Cohort Study (2017 to 2018). Fasting venous blood was collected to measure the levels of nine metals (selenium, lead, cadmium, arsenic, antimony, chromium, manganese, mercury, and nickel). The cognitive function of these participants was evaluated by using the Chinese version of the Mini-Mental State Examination (CMMSE). The random forest (RF) was applied to independently identify the main metals that affected cognitive impairment. The multivariate logistic regression model and restricted cubic splines (RCS) model were used to further verify the association of the main metals with cognitive impairment. Results: The age of 1 568 study subjects was (91.8±7.6) years old, including 912 females (58.2%) and 465 individuals (29.7%) with cognitive function impairment. Based on the RF model (the out-of-bag error rate was 22.9%), the importance ranking of variables was conducted and the feature screening of five times ten-fold cross-validation was carried out. It was found that selenium was the metal that affected cognitive function impairment, and the other eight metals were not included in the model. After adjusting for covariates, the multivariate logistic regression model showed that with every increase of 10 μg/L of blood selenium levels, the risk of cognitive impairment decreased (OR=0.921, 95%CI: 0.889-0.954). Compared with the lowest quartile(Q₁) of blood selenium, the ORs (95%CI) of Q₃ and Q₄ blood selenium were 0.452 (0.304-0.669) and 0.419 (0.281-0.622) respectively. The RCS showed a linear dose-response relationship between blood selenium and cognitive impairment (P_nonlinear>0.05). Conclusion: Blood selenium is negatively associated with cognitive impairment in the Chinese oldest old.

The present study was aimed to investigate the effects of circRNA-0028171 on the apoptosis of vascular endothelial cells induced by arsenic trioxide (As₂O₃). Human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) were treated with 0-15 μmol/L As₂O₃ for 24 h. Then, cellular viability was measured by MTT assay. The expression levels of circRNA-0028171, Bcl-2 and Bax mRNA were detected by real-time quantitative PCR. Bcl-2/Bax protein ratio was detected by Western blot. Whether circRNA-0028171 was involved in the regulation of HUVECs by As₂O₃ was investigated by transfection with overexpression plasmid of circRNA-0028171 and siRNA. The results showed that compared with the control group, As₂O₃ group showed decreased cellular viability, reduced Bcl-2/Bax mRNA and protein ratios, and significantly lower expression of circRNA-0028171. Overexpression of circRNA-0028171 inhibited apoptosis of HUVECs induced by As₂O₃. Knockdown of circRNA-0028171 by siRNA promoted As₂O₃-induced apoptosis in HUVECs. These results suggest that circRNA-0028171 is involved in the vascular endothelial cell apoptosis induced by As₂O₃.
