ObjectiveTo analyze the epidemiological characteristics and trends of hand-foot-mouth disease (HFMD) in Hangzhou, so as to provide an evidence for developing effective prevention and control measures and evaluating the control effects. MethodsThe incidence data of HFMD in Hangzhou were collected from the Infectious Disease Reporting Information Management System of China Information System for Disease Control and Prevention. Descriptive epidemiology was applied to analyze the temporal, spatial and demographic distribution characteristics and etiology monitoring results of HFMD cases in Hangzhou from 2010 to 2023. Joinpoint regression model was used to analyze the trends of incidence rate of HFMD. Furthermore, circular distribution method was utilized to calculate the incidence peak of HFMD. ResultsFrom 2010 to 2023, the average annual reported incidence rate of HFMD in Hangzhou was 138.85/100 000, the proportion of severe cases was 0.04%, the mortality rate was 0.01/100 000, and the case fatality rate was 5.30/100 000. Both the total incidence rate and the incidence rate by sex showed an increasing trend. The annual reported incidence rate in males (158.72/100 000) was higher than that in females (117.61/100 000). The reported incidence rate showed a significant seasonal characteristic, with summer being the peak of epidemic. The results of surveillance samples suggested that the prevalence of HFMD in Hangzhou is characterized by the co-existence of multiple pathogens, with EV-A71 and CV-A16 being the dominant pathogens in the previous years and CV-A6 being the dominant pathogen since 2018. The proportion of EV-A71 in severe cases (77.19%) was higher than that in ordinary cases (15.37%), in addition, its proportion in ordinary cases, severe cases, and fatal cases all showed a decreasing trend. ConclusionThe incidence rate of HFMD in Hangzhou is still high, so it’s still necessary to continue to strengthen the prevention and control measures for key populations. In recent years, CV-A6 has been the main prevalent pathogen in Hangzhou. Further efforts in pathogen detection and analysis should be enhanced in the future.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate whether adding 1 transverse screw (TS) to the triangular parallel cannulated screw (TPCS) fixation has a mechanical stability advantage for Pauwels type Ⅲ femoral neck fractures by conducting finite element analysis on four internal fixation methods. METHODS: Based on CT data of a healthy adult male volunteer's femur, three Pauwels type Ⅲ femoral neck fracture models (Pauwels angle 70°, Pauwels angle 80°, and Pauwels angle 70° combined with bone defect) were constructed using Mimics 21.0 software and SolidWorks 2017 software. Four different internal fixation models were built at the same time, including TPCS, TPCS+TS, three cross screws (TCS), and TPCS+medial buttress plate (MBP). The mechanical stability of different models under the same load was compared by finite element analysis. RESULTS: The femoral model established in this study exhibited a maximum stress of 28.62 MPa, with relatively higher stress concentrated in the femoral neck. These findings were comparable to previous studies, indicating that the constructed femoral finite element model was correct. The maximum stress of internal fixation in finite element analysis showed that TCS was the lowest and TPCS+MBP was the highest in Pauwels angle 70° and 80° models, while TPCS+TS was the lowest and TCS was the highest in Pauwels angle 70° combined with bone defect model. The maximum displacement of internal fixation in each fracture model was located at the top of the femoral head, with TCS having the highest maximum displacement of the femur. The maximum stress of fracture surface in finite element analysis showed that TCS was the lowest and TPCS was the highest in the Pauwels angle 70° model, while TPCS+MBP was the lowest and TPCS/TCS were the highest in the Pauwels angle 80° model and the Pauwels angle 70° combined with bone defect model, respectively. The maximum displacement of fracture surfece analysis showed that TPCS+MBP was the lowest and TCS was the highest in Pauwels angle 70° and 80° models, while TPCS+TS was the lowest and TCS was the highest in Pauwels angle 70° combined with bone defect model. CONCLUSION For Pauwels type Ⅲ femoral neck fractures, the biomechanical stability of TPCS+TS was superior to that of TPCS alone and TCS, but it has not yet reached the level of TPCS+MBP.

Objective:To investigate the influencing factors of enlarged perivascular space (PVS) in relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS) patients and their relationship with cognitive function.Methods:Twenty-seven individuals with RRMS (RRMS group) and 27 healthy controls (healthy control group) who presented to the Department of Neurology, the Sixth Medical Center of People′s Liberation Army General Hospital from July 2022 to November 2024 underwent cognitive function assessments. PVS volume fractions, lesion volumes, and brain volumes were calculated using FreeSurfer, FSL, and other relevant softwares. Group differences in PVS volume fractions, lesion volumes, brain volumes, and cognitive function assessments were compared. Furthermore, correlations between PVS volume fractions and lesion volumes, brain volumes, and cognitive function assessments were analyzed within the RRMS group.Results:Compared with the healthy control group, the RRMS group exhibited significantly higher PVS volume fractions in white matter (PVS_w) (3.14‰±0.29‰ vs 2.91‰±0.30‰, t=2.877, P=0.006) and PVS volume fractions in deep gray matter (PVS_d) (2.25‰±0.10‰ vs 2.17‰±0.09‰, t=2.681, P=0.010), indicating an enlargement of the PVS. Compared with the healthy control group, the RRMS group showed a significant decrease in both white matter volumes [297.3 (274.3, 340.2) ml vs (324.2 (311.0, 350.0) ml, U=-2.085, P=0.037] and deep grey matter volumes [40.2 (34.9, 43.6) ml vs 42.7 (40.2, 44.8) ml, U=-2.292, P=0.022]. Compared with the healthy control group, the RRMS group showed significantly lower scores in cognitive function assessments ( P<0.05). Univariate analysis showed that PVS_w in the RRMS group was significantly positively correlated with age ( r=0.486), white matter lesion volumes ( r=0.437) and deep gray matter lesion volumes ( r=0.394;all P<0.05); PVS_d was also significantly positively correlated with white matter lesion volumes ( r=0.418) and deep gray matter lesion volumes ( r=0.480; both P<0.05). Multiple linear regression analysis showed that age ( B=0.011,95% CI 0.004-0.017), white matter lesion volumes ( B=0.026,95% CI 0.011-0.040) and deep gray matter lesion volumes ( B=0.401,95% CI 0.032-0.771) in the RRMS group were significantly positively correlated with PVS_w, while white matter lesion volumes ( B=0.007,95% CI 0.001-0.014) and deep gray matter lesion volumes ( B=0.204,95% CI 0.029-0.380) were significantly positively correlated with PVS_d (both P<0.05). Univariate analysis showed that immediate memory score in the RRMS group was significantly negatively correlated with PVS_d ( r=-0.428), and was significantly positively correlated with education level ( r=0.471), deep gray matter volumes ( r=0.530) and total brain volumes ( r=0.389; all P<0.05); short-term delayed memory score in the RRMS group was significantly negatively correlated with age ( r=-0.390), PVS_w ( r=-0.417) and white matter lesion volumes ( r=-0.438), and was significantly positively correlated with gender ( r=0.393), white matter volumes ( r=0.478), deep gray matter volumes ( r=0.579) and total brain volumes ( r=0.602;all P<0.05); verbal fluency test score in the RRMS group was significantly negatively correlated with PVS_d ( r=-0.409) and was significantly positively correlated with education level ( r=0.419) and total brain volumes ( r=0.400;all P<0.05). Multiple linear regression analysis revealed that PVS_d ( B=-5.572, 95% CI -11.513--0.368) and brain volumes ( B=0.012, 95% CI 0.001-0.023) in the RRMS group were both significant predictors of immediate recall score, while PVS_d ( B=-14.203,95% CI -27.514--0.891) was an independent predictor of verbal fluency test score (all P<0.05). Conclusions:The PVS is enlarged in individuals with RRMS compared with the healthy controls, and increased lesion volumes may be a significant predictor. Furthermore, enlarged PVS in the deep gray matter may be a significant predictor of impairment of verbal memory and verbal function in individuals with RRMS.

Autophagy-lysosomal pathway (ALP) is the degradation system that remove unfolded proteins and damaged organelles in cells, and plays an important role in maintaining intracellular homeostasis.The process of autophagy mainly includes autophagosome formation, autophagosome-lysosome fusion, and degradation of cargoes in mature lysosomes by lysosomal enzymes.Dry eye disease, meibomian gland dysfunction and keratopathy are common ocular surface diseases associated with diabetes mellitus, and clinical manifestations include dry eyes, reduced tear secretion, persistent corneal epithelial defects, neuropathy (decreased corneal sensitivity) and endothelial cell dysfunction.Aberrant expression of gene, oxidative stress and inflammation related advanced glycosylation end products and reactive oxygen species are significant pathogenesis of ocular surface diseases related to diabetes.Moreover, the above pathogenesis involves defects of autophagy regulatory gene, abnormal expression of autophagy related protein and activation of autophagy signaling pathway which lead to the defects of ALP such as autophagosome lysosome fusion disorder, accumulation of cargoes and abnormal lysosomal function, and the deficiency of autophagy further promoting the oxidative stress and release of inflammatory factors.The occurrence and development of ocular surface diseases associated with diabetes are closely related to the defects of ALP.This article reviews the basic research status between the defects of ALP and diabetic ocular surface diseases to provide new ideas for the mechanism and treatment research.

Objective:To analyze the characteristics of non-seroconverted cases after rabies vaccination and observe the effect of booster vaccination.Methods:A retrospective collection of data was conducted from March 2022 to March 2023 across 409 rabies vaccination clinics in 27 provinces in China, focusing on cases with rabies virus neutralizing antibody (RVNA) levels less than 0.5 IU/ml after vaccination.Results:A total of 77 cases were identified in whom seroconversion was not observed within 30 days post-vaccination with the rabies vaccine. The gender distribution was 51.9% male and 48.1% female, with ages ranging from 2 to 83 years old. Delayed vaccination was observed in 11 cases (14.3%), and 63 cases (81.8%) received human rabies immunoglobulin (HRIG) injections. None of the cases had a confirmed immunosuppressive disease or taking immunosuppressive drugs, and the body mass index (BMI) distribution ranged from 14.37 to 34.74 kg/m 2. Seventy-six cases seroconverted after 1 to 3 doses of rabies vaccines as a booster vaccination. One case that did not seroconvert after the initial booster vaccination seroconverted after receiving additional 2 doses of vaccine. All patients were followed up for one year, with no cases of rabies reported. Conclusions:The characteristics of cases that failed to seroconvert after the full course of rabies vaccination lacked specificity, and booster vaccination could lead to seroconversion.
