Objective To analyze the virus subtypes, molecular evolutional and molecular transmission network features of the first confirmed mpox case in Huai’an City, Jiangsu Province, so as to provide insights into understanding of the transmission and evolution dynamics of mpox virus and formulation of the mpox control strategy in the city. Methods Genomic DNA was extracted from swabs of the first confirmed mpox case’s skin lesions in Huai’an City, and the amplicon sequencing library was constructed using the hypersensitive mpox virus whole-genome capture kit. High-throughput sequencing was performed using the GridION X5 nanopore sequencer on the Nanopore sequencing platform, and single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) analysis of mpox virus genome sequences was performed following sequence assembly. In addition, phylogenetic analysis, genetic genealogy and molecular traceability analysis were performed. Results The virus whole genome sequence of the first confirmed mpox case was successfully obtained by high-throughput sequencing, with a full length of 197 182 bp, and was named hMpxV/China/JS-HA01/2023, which belonged to the clade IIb (West African clade) lineage B.1.3. Compared with the mpox virus reference sequence MPXV-M5312_HM12_Rivers-001 (GenBank accession number: NC_063383), the genome sequence of the Huai’an virus isolate carried 86 SNPs, including 40 SNPs in the coding region as non-synonymous mutations and 73 SNPs as nucleotide mutations caused by APOBEC3 (APOBEC3). Of the 97 mpox virus gene sequences, 79 sequences were included in the molecular network (81.44%), and the threshold of the genetic distance accessed to the network was 0.35/10⁵. There were two large molecular transmission clusters and one scattered cluster in the molecular transmission network of the mpox virus, andthehMpxV/China/JS-HA01/2023 sequence was located in the large cluster. The 97 gene sequences formed 92 haplotypes, including three shared haplotypes Hap_4, Hap_6 and Hap_38, and an exclusive haplotype Hap_1 of hMpxV/China/JS-HA01/2023 generated from mutation of the exclusive haplotype Hap_43, while the exclusive haplotype Hap_43 was generated from mutation of the shared haplotype Hap_38. Conclusions The whole genome sequence of the mpox virus isolated from the first confirmed mpox case in Huai’an City has been successfully obtained, and the molecular evolutionary and molecular transmission network characteristics of the virus have been preliminarily understood.

Recent years have witnessed significant advancements in myopia control research through the application of diffuse optical technology(DOT)spectacle lenses. Myopia has emerged as a global public health challenge, affecting nearly half of the world's population, with childhood and adolescent myopia rates continuing to rise. DOT lenses represent an innovative myopia control intervention based on retinal contrast signal theory. These lenses incorporate micro-light scattering dots distributed across the lens surface to reduce retinal imaging contrast and modulate the influence of visual input on axial elongation, thereby slowing myopia progression. The core mechanism operates through refractive index differences between the lens substrate(1.53)and scattering dots(1.50), which generate optical scattering effects. This design maintains clear vision through a central 5 mm optical zone while effectively reducing contrast signal intensity in the peripheral retina. Large-scale randomized controlled trials, including the CYPRESS study, have demonstrated significant myopia control efficacy in children aged 6-10 years: 12-month follow-up data revealed a 74% reduction in myopia progression and a 50% reduction in axial elongation, with sustained safety and visual quality maintained over 4-year long-term follow-up. However, several aspects of DOT technology remain contentious and require further clinical validation, including its applicability across different age groups, optimal scattering dot density configurations, combined application effects with other myopia control methods, and long-term visual adaptation during extended use. This review systematically examines the theoretical foundations, design characteristics, clinical application progress, and future development directions of DOT technology, providing scientific evidence for clinical myopia prevention and control strategy formulation.

Objective To investigate the biomechanical differences in plantar pressure,postural stability,and plantar Visual Analogue Scale(VAS)scores between normal feet and unilateral/bilat-eral pes cavus,reveal their unique neuromechanical compensation mechanisms,and construct a sta-bility early warning model based on the minimum center of pressure(COP)trajectory classification.Methods A total of 70 patients with pes cavus from December 2023 to October 2024 were selected as study subjects,including 33 patients in the unilateral pes cavus group and 37 patients in the bilat-eral pes cavus group.During the same period,32 normal feet were included as normal foot group.A flat-panel plantar pressure testing system was used to collect dynamic plantar pressure data and COP trajectories from three groups at a self-selected walking speed.There were no statistically significant differences in baseline data such as age,gender,and body mass index among the three groups(P＞0.05).One-way analysis of variance and the Wilcoxon rank-sum test were used to compare the differences in maximum pressure,contact area,VAS scores,and the 95％confidence ellipse area of the COP among the three groups in 10 plantar regions.Results Patients with pes cavus exhibited lower peak pressure in the MF region compared to normal feet,while higher peak pressure in the M2,M3,and MH regions.Patients with bilateral pes cavus showed lower peak pressure in the T1 region compared to normal feet,and patients with unilateral pes cavus had lower peak pressure in the LH region compared to the normal group(P＜0.05).The plantar contact area in patients with pes cavus was reduced in the T1,M2,M3,M4,MF,and MH regions compared to normal feet(P＜0.05).The 95％confidence ellipse area of the COP was larger in both the bilateral and uni-lateral pes cavus groups compared to the normal foot group(P＜0.001).Unilateral pes cavus pres-ented a specific lateral COP drift(amplitude of 3 to 4 cm),which is a biomechanical manifestation of compensatory eversion of the unaffected foot.Patients with bilateral pes cavus exhibited a"bimod-al oscillation"trajectory(amplitude of 6 to 8 cm),suggesting possible vestibular-spinal regulatory dysfunction and the poorest postural stability.In the pes cavus group,there was a significant in-crease in pressure in the M2,M3,and MH regions,with peak pressures exceeding 190 kPa in pa-tients with bilateral pes cavus,which was highly correlated with plantar pain and could serve as a pain early warning threshold.Conclusion Unilateral and bilateral pes cavus exhibit significantly different neuromechanical compensation patterns.The classification based on the"lateral drift"and"bimodal oscillation"characteristics of the COP trajectory can serve as a stability early warning indi-cator for assessing fall risk.Decompression interventions targeting the key pressure regions of M2,M3,and MH(such as customized orthotic insoles)are the core strategies for alleviating pain and optimizing dynamic gait stability.
