Objective:This study aims to initially establish a scoring system for comprehensively reflecting the severity of intracranial atherosclerotic lesions and to explore the correlation between this score and atherosclerotic risk factors as well as stroke events.Methods:This study retrospectively analyzed patients who underwent head and neck computer tomography angiography(CTA)examinations and had head MRI examinations within one month before or after the CTA examination from January 2021 to August 2024 in Beijing Hospital.An intracranial atherosclerosis disease score(ICADS)system was constructed based on the degree and number of vascular stenosis.The relationship between ICADS and atherosclerotic risk factors was explored by grouping patients according to the quartile of ICADS.Patients were divided into acute stroke group and non-acute stroke group to compare differences in ICADS and cerebrovascular disease risk factors between the two groups, and to investigate the correlation between stroke events and ICADS.Results:There were statistically significant differences in the proportions of patients with hypertension and diabetes among different ICADS groups.Multiple linear regression analysis showed that hypertension( B=1.17, 95% CI: 0.20-2.14, P<0.05)and diabetes( B=2.75, 95% CI: 1.85-3.64, P<0.001)were risk factors for higher ICADS.The ICADS was higher in the acute stroke group than in the non-acute stroke group(9 vs.6, P<0.001), and a higher ICADS was identified as a risk factor for stroke( OR=1.10, 95% CI: 1.07-1.14, P<0.001). Conclusions:ICADS can comprehensively reflect the severity of intracranial atherosclerotic lesions and is correlated with stroke events, making it useful for clinical screening of high-risk patients for stroke.

Objective:To establish a rapid and accurate duplex real-time fluorescent reverse transcription-recombinase polymerase amplification/recombinase-aided amplification(RT-RPA/RAA)detection method for identification and differentiation of Nipah virus(NiV),Langya virus(LayV),Mojiang virus(MoJV),and Cedar virus(CedV).Methods:First,specific primers and probes were designed targeting the conserved L gene regions of NiV and LayV,as well as the conserved N gene regions of MoJV and CedV,respectively. The four viruses were divided into two groups for duplex detection. Subsequently,the optimal primer and probe combinations were screened by comparing the amplification efficiency of different primer pair combinations(F1/R1,F1/R2,F2/R1,F2/R2). The reaction temperature was optimized through temperature gradient settings from 37 ℃ to 42 ℃,and the amounts of primers and probes were optimized to establish the duplex real-time fluorescent RT-RPA/RAA detection system. Finally,the detection performance was evaluated through specificity,sensitivity,and stability tests,as well as clinical sample validation.Results:The selected primer pairs(NiV primer pair F2/R1,LayV primer pair F1/R1,MoJV primer pair F2/R2,and CedV primer pair F2/R2)all demonstrated optimal amplification efficiency when combined with their corresponding probes. The optimal annealing temperature was 39 ℃,and the minimum detection limit was 101-102 copies/μl. The method could effectively distinguish target viruses from other non-target viruses,and repeated experiments showed good stability( R2> 0.90). Additionally,detection results for Malaysian NiV strains and various clinical samples were consistent with the Taqman multiplex qRT-PCR method. Conclusion:The duplex real-time fluorescent RT-RPA/RAA detection method successfully established in this study can rapidly and accurately identify and differentiate four important henipavirus-like viruses:NiV,LayV,MoJV,and CedV. It features simple operation,rapid reaction,high specificity,and good stability,providing an effective molecular detection tool for rapid field diagnosis,surveillance,and control of these zoonotic viruses.
