Objective To understand the surveillance situation of poliovirus in Guangzhou from 2011 to 2024, and to further strengthen polio surveillance and ensure the continued maintenance of a polio-free status. Methods An analysis was conducted on the discovery and investigation results of six cases of vaccine-derived poliovirus (VDPV) detected in Guangzhou. Results A total of 6 VDPV incidents were reported in Guangzhou from 2011 to June 2024, among which 5 incidents were from sewage sample testing in the Liede Sewage Treatment Plant in Guangzhou, all of which were confirmed as VDPV, with 1 for type I, 1 for type II, and 3 for type III. In addition, one confirmed HFMD case was identified as a type VDPV II carrier. No presence of any wild poliovirus (WPV), VDPV cases, or circulating VDPV (cVDPV) was reported. Conclusion Guangzhou City has maintained a high level of vigilance and effectiveness in the monitoring and prevention of polio. Continuously strengthening the construction of the polio monitoring network, optimizing vaccination strategies, and comprehensively improving public health awareness are still the focus of the prevention and control work in the future.

Objective To explore and compare the clinical efficacy of orthopedic robot assisted femoral neck system(FNS)and traditional manual FNS in the treatment of femoral neck fractures in middle-aged and young people.Methods The clinical data of 62 consecutive patients with femoral neck fracture and age less than 65 years old admitted to the Intelligent Or-thopaedic Department of Beijing Jishuitan Hospital from June 2021 to June 2022 were retrospectively analyzed.According to whether orthopedic robot-assisted surgery the patients were divided into two groups:30 patients aged 34 to 56 years old were treated with orthopedic robot assisted FNS internal fixation after closed or limited open reduction(experimental group);32 pa-tients aged 33 to 54 years old underwent FNS internal fixation after closed or limited open reduction(control group).The age,gender,time from injury to admission,average hospital stay,surgical duration,intraoperative bleeding volume,and intraopera-tive fluoroscopy frequency of two groups of patients were analyzed and compared.The hip joint function in both groups of pa-tients was evaluated using the Harris hip joint scoring standard at 6 months after surgery.Results All 62 patients with femoral neck fractures successfully completed the surgery.There was no significant difference(P＞0.05)between the experimental group and the control group in terms of baseline data such as age,gender,time from injury to admission,time from admission to surgery and the intraoperative bleeding.The surgical duration of the experimental group was significantly shorter than that of the control group[42.1(28.5,50.7)min vs.53.4(36.9,62.5)min,Z=-2.338,P=0.019].The intraoperative X-ray fluoroscopy frequency of the experimental group was significantly lower than that of the control group[8.0(6.0,11.0)times vs.15.0(13.0,17.0)times,Z=-5.960,P＜0.001].In terms of postoperative hip joint function,there was no significant difference in Harris score between the two groups of patients at 6-month follow-up(P＞0.05).Conclusion Compared with manual operation of FNS,orthopedic robot assisted FNS in the treatment of femoral neck fractures can help shorten surgical time,reduce intraop-erative fluoroscopy frequency,and have similar therapeutic effects on long-term hip joint function recovery.

Objective To investigate the early diagnostic value of serum double cortin-like kinase 1(DCLK1),latent transforming growth factor binding protein 2(LTBP2)combined with transvaginal real-time shear wave elastography(SWE)for cervical cancer.Methods A total of 155 patients with cervical lesions treated in our hospital from August 2021 to December 2022 were selected as the research objects.Seventy-five patients with cervical cancer(the cervical cancer group)and 80 patients with cervical intraepithelial neoplasia(the CIN group)were diagnosed by surgical pathology,another 80 volunteers without cervical related diseases who participated in physical examinations at our hospital during the same period were selected as the control group.All subjects of each groups underwent serum DCLK1 and LTBP2 levels detection and transvaginal SWE examination.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was used to analyze the diagnostic value of serum DCLK1 and LTBP2 for cervical cancer;the diagnostic value of serum DCLK1 and LTBP2 combined with transvaginal SWE for cervical cancer was analyzed by fourfold table analysis.Results The serum levels of DCLK1 and LTBP2 of patients in the cervical cancer group were obviously higher than those in the CIN group and the control group(P<0.05).Compared with before surgery,the serum levels of DCLK1 and LTBP2 1,3,and 6 months after surgery in cervical cancer patients gradually decreased,and there were statistical differences in pairwise comparisons at each time point(P<0.05).The area under the curve of serum DCLK1 and LTBP2 for diagnosing cervical cancer were 0.868 and 0.754,respectively,with sensitivity of 86.67% and 78.67%,specificity of 81.25% and 60.00%,and optimal cutoff values of 1.49 ng/mL and 19.02 μg/mL.The maximum and average elastic modulus of lesion tissue in the cervical cancer group were obviously higher than those in the CIN group(P<0.05).The positive rates of serum DCLK1,serum LTBP2,and transvaginal SWE in the diagnosis of cervical cance were 86.67%,78.67%,and 82.67%,respectively,which were consistent with the gold standard(Kappa=0.624,0.501,0.673,P<0.001),and the positive rate of the combination of them in the diagnosis of cervical cancer was 97.33%,which was highly consistent with the gold standard(Kappa=0.846,P<0.001).The sensitivity and accuracy of the three combined diagnosis were obviously higher than those of the single indicator diagnosis of serum DCLK1,LTBP2,and transvaginal SWE,the specificity of the three combined diagnosis was obviously higher than that of the single indicator diagnosis of serum DCLK1 and LTBP2,the misdiagnosis rate of the three combined diagnosis was obviously lower than that of the single indicator diagnosis of serum DCLK1 and LTBP2,and the differences were all statistically significant(P<0.05).Conclusion Serum DCLK1 and LTBP2 combined with transvaginal SWE has high application value in the diagnosis of cervical cancer,which can further improve the sensitivity and accuracy of diagnosis,and reduce the misdiagnosis rate.

Heart failure(HF)is the end stage of almost all cardiovascular diseases,including coronary heart disease and structural heart disease.For end-stage HF,medications and cardiac assist devices have limited therapeutic effects,and heart transplantation is associated with donor shortage and immune rejection.Alginate hydrogel has the ability to mechanically support and induce cardiac tissue regeneration and repair.In March 2021,we conducted the world's first transcatheter endocardial alginate-hydrogel implantation in patients with end-stage heart failure,and explored the safety and feasibility of the treatment.Given that patients with heart failure who had undergone cardiac resynchronization therapy defibrillator(CRT-D)were excluded from previous studies,this paper is the first to report a case of transcatheter endocardial alginate-hydrogel implantation in a patient with heart failure who did not respond to CRT-D,with a significant reduction in the number of visits to the doctor and a significant improvement in the quality of life during the post-procedure follow-up,which may expand the indications for the use of this technology.

Objective:To investigate the effects of dexmedetomidine(DEX)on the malignant biological behavior of gastric cancer(GC)cells through the immune regulation mechanism mediated by cyclic GMP-AMP synthase-stimulator of interferon gene(cGAS-STING)pathway.Methods:GC cell line MGC-803 was randomly divided into Control group(blank medium treatment),DEX low concentration group(DEX-L group,1 ng/ml),DEX medium concentration group(DEX-M group,10 ng/ml),DEX high concentra-tion group(DEX-H group,100 ng/ml)and DEX high concentration+cGAS inhibitor RU.521 group(DEX-H+RU.521 group,100 ng/ml DEX+1.0 μmol/L RU.521).Cell proliferation was detected by CCK-8 method.Cell scratch test was used to detect the migration ability of cells in each group.Transwell test was used to detect the invasive ability of cells in each group.The apoptosis rate was detected by flow cytometry.The levels of IL-2,interferon gamma(IFN-γ)and tumor necrosis factor alpha(TNF-α)in cells were detected by ELISA.Real time-fluorescent quantitative PCR(RT-qPCR)was applied to detect the expression levels of cGAS,STING and interferon typeⅠ(IFN-Ⅰ)mRNA.Western blot was used to detect the expressions of cGAS,STING,Bax,CyclinD1,matrix metalloproteinase 9(MMP9),N-cadherin,Vimentin,E-cadherin,Caspase3,Caspase8 and their shear type and phosphorylation level of TANK-binding kinase 1(TBK1)and interferon regulatory factor 3(IRF3).Results:Compared with Control group,the cell migration rate,number of cell invasions,TNF-α level,CyclinD1,MMP9,N-cadherin,Vimentin protein expressions in MGC-803 cells in DEX-M and DEX-H groups were decreased obviously(P<0.05),the growth inhibition rate(48 h,72 h),apoptosis rate,IL-2,IFN-γ,Bax,E-cadherin,Cleaved Caspase3,Cleaved Caspase8 protein expression levels,cGAS,STING,IFN-Ⅰ mRNA levels and protein expression levels and phosphorylation levels of TBK1 and IRF3 were increased obviously(P<0.05).RU.521 weakened the inhibitory effects of DEX on the proliferation,migration and invasion of GC cells and the ability to induce apoptosis,and alleviated the improvement on immune function.Conclusion:DEX may inhibit the proliferation,migration and invasion of GC cells and induce apoptosis of GC cells by acti-vating cGAS-STING pathway mediated immune regulation.

Enteropathogenic Escherichia coli(EPEC),a zoonotic foodborne pathogen,can induce severe and prolonged di-arrhea,thus substantially affecting global public health safety.To understand the pathogenicity of EPEC and its potential risk to human health,this study investigated the antimicrobial resistance and genome-wide characteristics of EPEC originating from ducks.After identification of EPEC with the plate method and PCR,antimicrobial susceptibility of the isolates was examined with the microbroth dilution method.In addition,analyses of serotype,sequence type(ST),and plasmid incompatibility groups were conducted with whole-genome sequencing(WGS)and bioinformatic methods.Ten EPEC isolates were identified,including serotypes O71∶H40 and O3∶H21.All EPEC strains exhibited multiple drug resistance.The highest proportion of resistance(100％)was observed to ciprofloxacin,streptomycin,tetracycline,and polymyxin B.In contrast,the isolates showed susceptibility to cefoxitin,amikacin,and imipenem.Furthermore,all strains carried the tetracycline resistance gene tet(A)and extended-spectrum β-lactamase(ESBL)resistance genes,including blaOXA-10,blaTEM-1A,and blaTEM-1B.Various virulence genes,associated primarily with the secretory system,were de-tected in the isolates.However,no bf p genes or per ARC genes were identified,thus indicating that the EPEC isolates were atypical EPEC(aEPEC).The results demonstrated the presence of multiple antimicrobial resistance,multiple resistance and viru-lence genes,and various plasmid incompatibility groups,thus in-dicating potential pathogenicity to humans.Strengthened monitoring of duck-derived EPEC is crucial to effectively control the spread of the pathogen and safeguard public health.

A quartz crystal microbalance(QCM)-systematic evolution of ligands by the exponential en-richment(SELEX)technique was developed to screen out aptamers with high affinity for arsenic(Ⅲ).A random single strand DNA library was designed and fixed on the mercaptoethylamine-modified crystal plate with arsenic(Ⅲ)as the target,and the free aptamer was captured in the solution,and the QCM-SELEX screening method was constructed.After 6 rounds of screening,the secondary library was se-quenced with high throughput method,and the 6S1 dissociation coefficient Kd value was 0.36 μmol/L based on QCM resonance frequency.Using 6S1 as a probe,the QCM biosensor was constructed for the detection of arsenic(Ⅲ).The sensor has a good linear relationship in the range of 0.01 μmol/L～0.2μmol/L,and the detection limit of arsenic(Ⅲ)is 5.2 nmol/L(3σ),indicatinggood selectivity.

Objective:To investigate the predictive value of combined detection of serum microribonucleic acid-30c-5p(miR-30c-5p)and neuroligin-1(NLGN1)for postoperative recur-rence and metastasis in patients undergoing laparoscopic radical resection of colorectal cancer.Methods:A total of 112 colorectal cancer patients who underwent laparoscopic radical resection from August 2021 to August 2022 were regarded as the diseased group.They were separated into a recurrent group(n=28)and a non-recurrent group(n=84)based on whether the patients had recurrence or metastasis within 12 months after surgery.Additionally,92 normal volunteers who underwent physical examinations were as the control group.QRT-PCR was applied to de-tect serum miR-30c-5p and NLGN1 mRNA levels.Multivariate logistic regression was applied to analyze the affecting factors of postoperative recurrence and metastasis in patients.Receiver op-erating characteristic(ROC)curve was plotted to analyze the predictive value of serum miR-30c-5p and NLGN1 mRNA for postoperative recurrence and metastasis in patients.Pearson method was applied to analyze the correlation between miR-30c-5p and NLGN1.Results:The miR-30c-5p level in the diseased group was greatly lower than that in the control group(P＜0.05),and the NLGN1 mRNA level was significantly higher than that in the control group(P＜0.05).Compared with the non recurrent group,the miR-30c-5p level in the recurrent group was significantly re-duced(P＜0.05),while the NLGN1 mRNA level was significantly increased(P＜0.05).There was a statistically significant difference in tissue differentiation between the non-recurrent group and the recurrent group(P＜0.05).Low differentiation of tumor tissues and elevated level of NLGN1 mRNA were risk factors for postoperative recurrence and metastasis(P＜0.05).Elevated level of miR-30c-5p was a protective factor of postoperative recurrence and metastasis(P＜0.05).The AUC of serum miR-30c-5p,NLGN1 mRNA,and their combined prediction for postoperative re-currence and metasta sis in patients was 0.823,0.823,and 0.902,which was greatly better than the individual prediction of miR-30c-5p(Z=2.031,P=0.042)and NLGN1 mRNA(Z=2.239,P=0.025).There was a negative correlation between miR-30c-5p and NLGN1 mRNA levels(r=-0.436,P＜0.05).Conclusion:The dicrease of miR-30c-5p level and increase of NLGN1 mRNA level in laparoscopic colorectal cancer patient has auxiliary predictive value for postoperative recur-rence and metastasis.

Objectives:To compare the diagnostic efficacy of non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) and the predictive value for major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) of the 0/3-hour algorithm for high-sensitivity cardiac troponin (hs-cTn) recommended by the 2015 European Society of Cardiology (ESC) guidelines for the management of non-ST-segment elevation acute coronary syndrome (NSTE-ACS) and the 2021 "Chinese Expert Consensus on Laboratory Testing and Clinical Application of Cardiac Troponin" in suspected acute coronary syndrome (ACS) patients in the Chinese population. Methods:This is a multicenter prospective observational study,including 1527 patients with suspected ACS from three clinical centers from January 2017 to September 2020.Plasma hs-cTnI levels were measured using the ARCHITECT assay at the time of presentation and 3 hours later in patients with suspected ACS (test determination).Clinical judgment (independent clinical judgment by cardiac experts,independent of the test results) was used as the gold standard to compare the sensitivity,specificity,and consistency of the two diagnostic algorithms,and to analyze their predictive value for MACE at 30 days and 180 days.MACE in this study was defined as a composite event of cardiovascular death,myocardial infarction,and unplanned coronary revascularization. Results:According to clinical judgment,there were 400 patients with NSTEMI and 1127 patients without NSTEMI.The 0/3-hour algorithm recommended by the 2021 Chinese Expert Consensus showed higher sensitivity in diagnosing NSTEMI than the 2015 ESC guidelines (91.50％[95％ CI:88.32％-94.04％]vs.87.75％[95％ CI:84.13％-90.80％]),but slightly lower specificity (93.88％[95％ CI:92.32％-95.21％]vs.95.56％[95％ CI:94.19％-96.69％]),with both differences being statistically significant (both P<0.001).In the follow-up at 30 days and 180 days,the incidence of MACE in patients diagnosed with NSTEMI by both algorithms was higher than in those without NSTEMI (P<0.001).The incidence of MACE at 30 days and 180 days for the group excluded from the diagnosis of NSTEMI by 2015 ESC guidelines was 0.19％ and 1.120％,respectively,and for the NSTEMI group was 2.89％ and 3.68％,respectively;for the group excluded from NSTEMI by the 2021 Chinese Expert Consensus,the incidence was 0.096％ and 0.770％,respectively,and for the NSTEMI group was 2.91％ and 4.36％,respectively.Cox analysis showed that the HR ratio for MACE at 180 days in the NSTEMI group diagnosed by both algorithms was 3.418 and 5.892,respectively,significantly higher than the group excluded from NSTEMI. Conclusions:The 0/3-hour algorithm recommended by the 2021 Chinese Expert Consensus has superior diagnostic sensitivity compared to the 2015 ESC NSTE-ACS guidelines,at the cost of slightly lower specificity.Both algorithms can effectively predict MACE within 180 days,but based on the data from this study,the algorithm recommended by the 2021 Chinese Expert Consensus is more sensitive in predicting the risk of MACE,and patients excluded from the diagnosis of NSTEMI by this method have a lower incidence of MACE,suggesting that its application in clinical practice may be more helpful in terms of long-term safe management of patients.
