Objective:To analyze the epidemiological and etiological characteristics of herpes pharyngitis (HA) in three prefectures of Jiangsu Province, and provide evidence for the prevention and control of HA in Jiangsu.Methods:Three surveillance sentinel hospitals in Wuxi, Suzhou and Yancheng were selected from May 2018 to December 2022, and information related to HA visits and hospitalized cases was regularly collected from the hospital inpatient management system by age groups. Enterovirus nucleic acid detection was performed by RT-PCR, and sequencing analysis, identification of genotype subtypes, and phylogenetic analysis were performed on the sequences of the gene encoding the coat protein VP1 of the main prevalent strains.Results:A total of 57 709 HA cases were recorded in the sentinel hospitals in in Wuxi, Suzhou and Yancheng, which was 1.76 times higher than the reported cases of hand, foot and mouth disease during the same period (57 709/32 831).The percentage of HA hospitalizations was 1.35% (781/57 709), and the percentage of hospitalizations showed an increasing trend from year to year ( χ2=62.79, P<0.001 ).The incidence peak of HA was during May-July. The cases were mainly children aged 12-59 months (67.07%, 38 708/57 709), with the highest case number in age group 36-59 months (34.40%, 19 852/57 709). The HA positivity rate was 33.82% (644/1 904); enterovirus A was predominant (54.04%, 348/644); of these, Coxsackievirus (CV)A6 accounted for the highest percentage (52.59%, 183/348), while CVA16 and CVA4 accounted for 24.71% (86/348) and 15.23% (53/348), respectively. All 10 CVA4 HA endemic strains belonged to the C2 gene subtype, and all 6 CVA6 HA endemic strains belonged to the D3a gene subtype; and were genetically closer to and related to the strains in some areas of China (Fujian Province, Guangzhou City, Jiangxi Province, Yunnan Province, Tianjin City, etc.). Conclusions:The disease burden of HA was heavy in 3 areas in Jiangsu, children in age group 12-59-month were mainly affected, and the annual incidence peak of HA was during May-July. The pathogens causing HA varied, but predominated by enterovirus A and had low intra-typical differentiation, and no new evolutionary branches were found, suggesting that it is necessary to include HA in foot and mouth disease surveillance or regarded as a notifiable communicable disease.

(4) Analysis of influencing factors for positive circumferential margin in surgical specimen of intersphincteric resection for rectal cancer. Results of univariate analysis showed that preoperative T staging on preoperative pelvic MRI, mesorectal fascia invasion, extramural venous invasion, pathological T staging, and pathological N staging were related factors for positive circumferential margin in surgical specimen of intersphincteric resection for rectal cancer ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Intersph-incteric resection with transabdominal transanal mixed approach has good specimen quality and low positive rate of surgical margin. T staging on preoperative pelvic MRI may be related to positive circumferential margin after intersphincteric resection for rectal cancer.

Objective To investigate the effect of Zhuang medicated thread moxibustion on postherpetic neuralgia model rats,and to verify the mechanism of Th1/Th2/Th17 cytokine balance regulation in central nervous system.Methods 50 SD rats were randomly divided into blank group,model group,thread-moxibustion without drugs group,Zhuang medicated thread moxibustion group and pregabalin group,with 10 rats in each group.Except for blank group,the rat model of postherpetic neuralgia was induced by a single intrapitoneal injection of resin-toxin(RTX).After successful modeling,each group was given corresponding treatment for 21 days.The Mechanical Pain Threshold(PWT)and Thermal withdrawal latency(TWL)were detected 3 days before modeling,1,4 and 7 days after modeling,and 3,7,14 and 21 days after intervention.After the intervention,extract spinal cord tissue,Flow cytometry was used to detect changes in the proportion of Th1/Th2/Th17 cells;The mRNA expression levels of IFN-γ,IL-2,IL-4,IL-10,IL-17 and IL-22 were detected by qPCR;The positive expressions of IFN-γ,IL-2,IL-4,IL-10,IL-17 and IL-22 were observed by immunohistochemistry.The protein expressions of IFN-γ,IL-2,IL-4,IL-10,IL-17 and IL-22 were detected by Western blot to elucidate the regulation effect of this therapy on the equilibrium mechanism.Results After intrapitoneal injection of resin-toxin,the PWT of rats showed a downward trend,while the TWL showed an upward trend,showing the separation of heat and pain,which was consistent with the clinical manifestations of PHN.After Zhuang medicated thread moxibustion therapy,PWT increased and TWL decreased in PHN rats,which reduced the separation trend of heat and pain.Thread-moxibustion without drugs group,Zhuang medicated thread moxibustion group and pregabalin group can promote Th1 response in the central nervous system(spinal cord),increase the proportion of CD4+IL-2+cells and the contents of IFN-γ and IL-2 in the spinal cord tissue,and up-regulate the expression of IFN-γ and IL-2 mRNA and protein.Meanwhile,Th2 and Th17 responses in the central nervous system were inhibited,and the proportions of CD4+IL-4+and CD4+IL-17A+cells and the contents of IL-4,IL-10,IL-17 and IL-22 in the spinal cord tissue were reduced.The mRNA and protein expressions of IL-4,IL-10,IL-17 and IL-22 were down-regulated.In addition,Zhuang medicated thread moxibustion group and pregabalin group had similar efficacy in correcting Th1/Th2/Th17 lymphocyte imbalance in the central nervous system,and both were better than the Thread-moxibustion without drugs group.Conclusion Zhuang medicated thread moxibustion can improve the separation trend of heat and pain in postherpetic neuralgia rats,which may be achieved by regulating Th1/Th2/Th17 cell balance and related cytokine levels.

Objective　To investigate the changes in expression and diagnostic value of miRNA-424-5p and interleukin-6 (IL-6) in patients with latent tuberculosis (LTBI) and active tuberculosis (ATB). Methods Data from the miRNA expression microarray GSE25435 and GSE29190 were downloaded from the U.S. National Center for Biotechnology Information Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database, and differentially expressed miRNA were obtained using the GEO2R tool. A total of 30 cases, including LTBI and ATB patients, were selected from the Sixth People's Hospital of Nantong between July 2022 to July 2023, with healthy controls (HC) being concurrent healthy individuals. The expression of miRNA and IL-6 in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) among three groups was verified by real-time fluorogenic quantitative PCR (qPCR). The diagnostic efficacy of candidate miRNA and IL-6 was evaluated by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves. Results By GEO2R analysis, three differential miRNAs were obtained: miRNA-424-5p, miRNA-21-3p, and miRNA-144-3p. qPCR experiments verified the levels of these three miRNAs and IL-6, showing that miRNA-21-3p and miRNA-144-3p exhibited no significant difference in relative expression in PBMCs of ATB patients compared to the LTBI group (F=6.53, P>0.05; F=3.21, P>0.05). However, the expression levels of miRNA-424-5p and IL-6 in PBMCs were significantly increased, with statistically significant differences (F=5.35, P<0.01; F=8.77, P<0.01). ROC curve analysis showed that the maximum AUC of miRNA-424-5p and IL-6 for distinguishing ATB from LTBI was 0.70 and 0.76 respectively, and their combined diagnostic AUC could reach 0.84. Conclusions The combined diagnosis of miRNA-424-5p and IL-6 has the potential to distinguish LTBI from ATB patients, providing a certain reference for the rapid differential diagnosis of latent infection and active tuberculosis.

OBJECTIVE: Because of the limited number of studies and small sample sizes, whether metabolic syndrome (MS) leads to the occurrence and progression of osteoporosis and the possible underlying mechanisms require further investigation. This study aimed to investigate the association between MS and osteoporosis, along with its influencing factors. METHODS: This observational cross-sectional study included 139,470 individuals aged ≥ 18 years who underwent health examinations from September 2014 to March 2022. Based on bone mineral density (BMD) screening results, the participants were categorized into a suspected osteoporosis or non-osteoporosis group (control). Participants were further divided into those who met 0 MS criteria, 1 MS criterion, 2 MS criteria, and ≥ 3 MS criteria (MS group). Participants who had undergone health examinations at least twice formed the follow-up cohort; a self-matched analysis was performed on those with follow-up periods ≥ 5 years and unchanged MS grouping. RESULTS: Several examination indicators in the suspected osteoporosis group showed statistically significant differences compared with the control group. The proportion of suspected osteoporosis in the MS group was significantly increased compared with that in the 0 MS criteria group (odds ratio [ OR]: 1.215, Z = 29.11, P < 0.001, 95% confidence interval: 1.199-1.231). After adjusting for age, sex, smoking, and alcohol consumption, the 2 MS criteria group and MS group still had OR values > 1 ( P < 0.001). In the follow-up cohort, the proportion of suspected osteoporosis increased gradually with an increase in the number of MS criteria met at baseline and during each follow-up visit ( P < 0.05), with the highest proportion observed in the MS group. However, the proportion of suspected osteoporosis did not increase significantly over time in the different MS groups ( P > 0.05). In the follow-up cohort, the proportion of individuals transitioning from normal BMD to suspected osteoporosis was higher in the MS group after ≥ 5 years of follow-up compared with the group meeting 0 MS criteria (0.08% versus 1.15%, χ ² = 10.76, P = 0.001). There was no significant difference in BMD values for the 0 MS criteria group after 5 years ( P > 0.05), whereas the other three groups experienced a significant decrease in BMD values after 5 years ( P < 0.05). CONCLUSION MS is an independent risk factor for osteoporosis, and the effect of risk factors related to MS on osteoporosis may exceed that of aging alone. The specific mechanisms warrant further investigation.

BACKGROUND: Glutamine synthetase (GS) and arginase 1 (Arg1) are widely used pathological markers that discriminate hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) from intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma; however, their clinical significance in HCC remains unclear. METHODS: We retrospectively analyzed 431 HCC patients: 251 received hepatectomy alone, and the other 180 received sorafenib as adjuvant treatment after hepatectomy. Expression of GS and Arg1 in tumor specimens was evaluated using immunostaining. mRNA sequencing and immunostaining to detect progenitor markers (cytokeratin 19 [CK19] and epithelial cell adhesion molecule [EpCAM]) and mutant TP53 were also conducted. RESULTS: Up to 72.4% (312/431) of HCC tumors were GS positive (GS+). Of the patients receiving hepatectomy alone, GS negative (GS-) patients had significantly better overall survival (OS) and recurrence-free survival (RFS) than GS+ patients; negative expression of Arg1, which is exclusively expressed in GS- hepatocytes in the healthy liver, had a negative effect on prognosis. Of the patients with a high risk of recurrence who received additional sorafenib treatment, GS- patients tended to have better RFS than GS+ patients, regardless of the expression status of Arg1. GS+ HCC tumors exhibit many features of the established proliferation molecular stratification subtype, including poor differentiation, high alpha-fetoprotein levels, increased progenitor tumor cells, TP53 mutation, and upregulation of multiple tumor-related signaling pathways. CONCLUSIONS GS- HCC patients have a better prognosis and are more likely to benefit from sorafenib treatment after hepatectomy. Immunostaining of GS may provide a simple and applicable approach for HCC molecular stratification to predict prognosis and guide targeted therapy.

Objective To investigate the safety and short-term efficacy of π-shaped anastomosis and circular anastomosis(reverse puncture device)in reconstruction of esophagojejunostomy after laparoscopic total gastrectomy.Methods A retrospective study was used to collect the clinical and pathological data of 75 cases of gastric cancer from January 2019 to March 2021.According to the different reconstruction methods of esophagojejunal anastomosis,the patients were divided into a linear cutting obturator group(π-shaped anastomosis group,n = 27)and a circular anastomat anastomosis group(reverse puncture device group,n = 48).The general information of the two groups,operation time,esophagojejunostomy time,intraoperative bleeding volume,number of intraoperative lymph node dissection,intraoperative complications,and postoperative complications were compared and analyzed.Results The operation time and esophagojejunostomy time in the π-shaped anastomosis group were(221.5±8.8)and(34.7±3.7)min,and the reverse puncture device group were and(246.9±5.6)and(47.2±4.6)min,respectively,the differences were statistically significant(t = 15.19,t = 11.81,P＜0.05).There were no statistical significance in the comparison of intraoperative bleeding volume and number of intraoperative lymph node dissection between the two groups(P＞0.05).In the reverse puncture device group,there were two intraoperative complications,including one case of esophageal jejunal anastomosis atresia and one case of anastomosis tear,postoperative complications occurred in 3 cases,postoperative anastomotic stenosis occurred in 2 case,and anastomotic bleeding occurred in 1 case.Conclusion Laparoscopic total esophagojejunostomy with π-shaped anastomosis and reverse puncture device are safe and feasible.In terms of esophagojejunostomy time,π-shaped anastomosis reconstruction time is shorter.When the small intestine diameter is relatively small and it is difficult to extend into the 25 mm stapler,the advantage of π-shaped anastomosis is more obvious.When the tumor is Siewert type Ⅰ and type Ⅱ adenocarcinoma of gastroesophageal junction,which infiltrates into above the dentate line,reverse puncture device method is recommended for reconstruction.

Objective:To evaluate the strategy and safety of the radiofrequency ablation (RFA) on ventricular arrhythmias (VAs) originating from the pulmonary sinus cusp (PSC) in pediatric patients.Methods:Retrospective study.Fifteen patients with VAs originating from the PSC who were intervened by RFA in the Department of Pediatric Cardiology, Guangdong Provincial People′s Hospital between March 2014 to July 2020 were enrolled.All the patients met the indication criteria for RFA in pediatric patients.The electrocardiogram, ablation method of ablation were analyzed.Different curved catheters were selected for RFA according to the age and weight of the patients.The catheter was then inserted in a " U" or inverted " P" shape to the PSC.The long-term effect of ablation were reviewed.Results:The mean age and body weight of 15 patients with VAs originating from the PSC were (11.6±2.6) (6-15) years and (39.9±12.2) (19-65) kg, respectively.The electrocardiogram recorded during VAs originating from the PSC showed left bundle branch block and inferior axis with monomorphic R pattern, as well as a QS-wave in aVR and aVL.The electrocardiogram characteristics varied in patients with VAs originating from the PSC.The ideal excitation point was not found in the right ventricular outflow tract or the ablation was unsuccessful in all patients, and the earliest target was mapped and RFA was successful.Among the 15 patients, the successful ablation site was in the lower regions of the PSC, involving the right cusp in 11 patients(73.3%), the anterior cusp in 3 patients(20.0%), and the left cusp in 1 patient(6.7%). The earliest potential recorded at the PSC ablation site preceded the QRS complex onset by (27.3±6.0) ms.During the follow-up period for (2.7±2.0) years, no recurrence of VAs or complications were recorded.Conclusions:Under the premise of gentle catheterization procedure and appropriate radiofrequency energy, ablation was effective, safe and with low recurrence rate to eradicate VAs originating from the PSC in children.

Objective:To uncover the effect of circ0025847 on the proliferation of colorectal cancer cells and its molecular mechanisms.Methods:qRT-PCR was utilized to analyze the expression of circ0025847 and QK1 in human colorectal cancer cells (HCT116, SW480) and normal mucosa cells (NCM460) .CCK-8 was used to analyze the effect of circ0025847 and QK1 on proliferation in colorectal cancer cells. Bioinformatics method was used to screen RBP which could bind to circ0025847. RNA pulldown and RIP was utilized to confirm whether QK1 binds to circ0025847.Effects of circ0025847 over-expression on QK1 expression was analyzed by Western blot.NC group, circ0025847 overexpression group and circ0025847 overexpression+ QK1 inhibitor group were established and the proliferation effect was determined by CCK8.Results:circ0025847 (the expression levels in NCM460, HCT116 and SW480 cells were 1.01±0.05, 0.49±0.08, 0.45±0.10) and QK1 (the expression levels in NCM460, HCT116 and SW480 cells were 0.98±0.07, 0.50±0.07, 0.47±0.09) expression was significantly downregulated in colorectal cancer cells. Overpression of circ0025847 and QK1 suppressed colorectal cancer cells growth.RNA pull-down and RIP clarified that circ0025847 bind to QK1 and circ0025847 positively regulate QK1 expression (7 199.20±12.44 VS 3 889.80±11.03) . circ0025847 inhibiting the proliferation of colorectal cancer cells by promoting the expression of QK1 was confirmed by rescue experiment.Conclusion:circ0025847 inhibits colorectal cancer cells proliferation via positively regulating QK1 expression, indicating that circ0025847 may be potential therapeutic target of colorectal cancer.
