Objective:To perform adenovirus detection and genetic evolutionary analysis on specimens from a fever outbreak in Kunming city.Methods:Pharyngeal swabs from typical febrile patients were collected and tested for nucleic acids of 30 common respiratory pathogens using TaqMan Array Card technology. The full-length sequences of three important genes of adenovirus, Penton base, Hexon and Fiber, were amplified, sequenced and typed using Nanopore high-throughput sequencing. A phylogenetic tree was constructed. Molecular variations and genetic evolution of the three genes were analyzed.Results:Five specimens were collected and all of them tested positive for adenovirus and Haemophilus influenzae. The sequences of the full-length coding regions of the Penton base, Hexon and Fiber genes were obtained by Nanopore sequencing. The homology of the three gene sequences in the five specimens was 100.0%, 99.9%-100.0% and 100.0% in nucleotide sequences, and 100.0% in amino acid sequences. The three genes in the specimens had the highest homology with those of the reference strain of human adenovirus type 3 (HAdV3, accession number: AY599834) in nucleotide sequences, which was 98.6%, 98.7% and 98.9%, respectively. Results of the phylogenetic analysis of the three genes were basically consistent. These Kunming strains were clustered into an independent clade with the reference HAdV3 strain and had a distant relationship with the strains isolated in foreign countries and Taiwan, China in the early years. They were closely related to the domestic and foreign strains in recent years and highly homologous to the 2019 Japanese strain (accession: LC703523) and the Guangzhou strain (accession: MZ540961). Compared with the reference strain, these Kunming strains had five amino acid variations in Penton base, 10 in Hexon and 11 in Fiber. Conclusions:All of the adenovirus strains isolated in this outbreak belong to P3H3F3 type based on the full-length sequences of Penton base, Hexon and Fiber genes. They share high homology with the domestic and foreign HAdV3 strains, including the reference strain. Compared with the reference strain, several amino acid mutations are identified in these Kunming strains, and most of them are in the high variability region or functional regions. M7L in the Hexon protein is an unique amino acid mutation site of Kunming strains.

AIM: To investigate the role of histidine-rich glycoprotein(HRG)in the neovascularization of diabetic retinopathy in rats.METHODS: Streptozocin(STZ)-induced diabetic Sprague-Dawley(SD)rats were utilized as an experimental model, the protein expression of HRG and vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF)in the retinas of normal(Wild type, WT)and diabetic(diabetic mellitus, DM)groups was detected using Western blot(WB). The protein expression of HRG in high-glucose-induced human retinal microvascular endothelial cells(hRMECs)was verified by WB after transfection with HRG small interfering RNA(siRNA)low-expression sequences. The optimal si-HRG#298 sequence was selected for further experiments. In the animal experiment, HRG gene silencing was achieved using an adeno-associated virus(AAV)vector, with AAV2-sh-NC and AAV2-sh-HRG#298 serving as the HRG gene silencing group and the HRG empty vector control group, respectively. The protein expression of HRG and VEGF in each group was then detected by WB following the verification of HRG protein expression. Retinal structural changes were observed by HE staining, and neovascularization changes were observed by PAS staining.RESULTS: HE staining found that the retinal structure in the DM group was disordered, the number of cells in the ganglion cell layer decreased, the number of cells in the inner and outer nuclear layers decreased, and the total retinal thickness also decreased(P<0.05); cellular capillaries were significantly increased in DM rats observed by PAS staining(P<0.05); the protein expression of HRG and angiogenesis factor VEGF was up-regulated in the retina of DM group(P<0.05); the protein expression of HRG was significantly downregulated in high glucose-induced hRMECs(P<0.05); the inhibition of neovascularization in diabetic retinas and the downregulation of VEGF protein expression were achieved through HRG gene silencing(P<0.05).CONCLUSION: HRG promotes neovascularization in the retinas of diabetic rats, and HRG gene silencing can inhibit neovascularization.

Objective:To explore the characteristic of dynamic function network connectivity (dFNC) of resting brain networks in internet gaming disorder (IGD) adolescents.Methods:Forty-four adolescent IGD subjects (IGD group, male/female: 38/6) and fifty healthy controls (HC group, male/female: 40/10) were collected, and the subjects completed demographic questionnaires, Young internet addiction scale(YIAS), Chinese adolescents' maladaptive cognitions scale(CAMAS), and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) tests. The fMRI data were preprocessed on the Matlab platform, and the preprocessed data was divided into 64 components for group level independent component analysis.The dynamic functional connectivity of obtained 18 effective independent components was analyzed by sliding time window technique, and the difference of dynamic functional connectivity of brain triple network between the IGD group and HC group was compared using SPSS 22.0 software.Results:Four repeated dFNC states were identified through cluster analysis.Each state indicated that different functional networks had different connection strengths.State 3, the most frequent state, had been indicated that the whole brain network of the subject was in a state of weak functional connectivity.The second frequent state was state 1, which indicated enhanced functional connectivity within the subject's central executive network (CEN).State 2 had been indicated enhanced functional connectivity within the subject's salience network (SN).State 4 had been indicated generally enhanced functional connectivity in the subjects' brain networks, and this state was the least frequent.The results of non-parametric permutation test on the time attribute showed that compared with the HC group, the IGD group had a longer time score (IGD group: 0.24±0.19, HC group: 0.13±0.15, t=1.19, P<0.05, non-parametric substitution test) for state 1 with strong connectivity within the CEN, which was positively correlated with the YIAS score and game time ( r=0.418, P=0.003; r=0.515, P=0.004).Compared with HC group, the functional connectivity of ICD group between the internal insula of the SN and the dorsal anterior cingulate cortex was enhanced ( P<0.05, FDR corrected), while the average residence time in weakly connected state 3 was longer ( Z=2.09, P<0.05, nonparametric substitution test). Conclusions:The difference in dynamic functional connectivity of the triple network in the brain of IGD adolescents under resting state is mainly manifested by strong connections in CEN, functional connections between insula and dorsal anterior cingulate cortex in SN is enhanced, and weakening of overall functional connections, which may play an important role in the pathological mechanism of IGD.

Objective:To explore the utility of adenosine stress-rest gated myocardial perfusion imaging (G-MPI) in evaluation of left ventricular (LV) myocardial perfusion, heart function, and synchronization in patients with multivessel coronary artery disease after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG).Methods:Fifty-five patients (42 males, 13 females, age (59.3±9.0) years) with multivessel coronary artery disease who underwent CABG surgery in Yan′an Hospital Affiliated to Kunming Medical University between January 2021 and June 2023 were retrospectively collected. All of them underwent G-MPI (one-day method) one week before and six months after CABG. Paired t-test or Wilcoxon signed rank test was used to compare LV myocardial perfusion parameters including summed stress score (SSS), summed rest score (SRS), and summed different score (SDS) before and after CABG, as well as cardiac function parameters (LV ejection fraction (EF), LV end-diastolic volume (EDV), LV end-systolic volume (ESV), stroke volume (SV), peak filling rate (PFR)), and LV mechanical contraction synchronization parameters such as phase histogram bandwidth (PHB) and phase standard deviation (PSD). Differences of the changes of parameters after CABG compared to baseline (Δ) between adenosine stress imaging and rest imaging were also compared by Wilcoxon signed rank test. The relationships between rest LVEF, rest PFR and myocardial perfusion parameters were analyzed by Spearman rank correlation analysis. Results:After CABG, the SSS, SRS, and SDS were significantly lower than those before surgery (6(3, 12) vs 16(9, 23), 1(0, 9) vs 4(1, 15), 3(1, 5) vs 8(6, 12); z values: 6.37, 4.84, 6.24, all P<0.001); postoperative rest/stress LVEF(60%(49%, 67%), 58%(48%, 68%)) and PFR (3.67(3.12, 4.28), 3.23(2.77, 4.43) EDV/s) significantly increased compared with preoperative values (51%(33%, 62%), 53%(27%, 61%); 2.76(2.08, 3.52), 2.83(1.86, 3.62) EDV/s; z values: 3.23-5.58, all P<0.01); postoperative rest/stress LVEDV and LVESV were significantly lower than those before surgery ( t values: 6.40, 5.27; z values: 5.33, 5.40; all P<0.001); rest/stress PHB (45°(35°, 70°), 53°(44°, 113°)) and PSD (14.7°(10.9°, 27.3°), 20.0°(14.6°, 33.8°)) were significantly lower than those before surgery (60°(45°, 131°), 83°(58°, 198°), 20.4°(16.0°, 49.1°), 27.2°(19.6°, 60.4°); z values: 4.19-4.81, all P<0.001). The ΔSSS was greater than the ΔSRS, and the ΔPFR was greater in rest imaging than that in stress imaging ( z values: 6.24, 2.77, both P<0.05). Rest LVEF, PFR were negatively correlated with SSS and SRS ( rs values: from -0.741 to -0.431, all P<0.05). Conclusion:The LV myocardial perfusion, function, and mechanical contraction synchronicity information obtained from adenosine stress-rest G-MPI can be used to evaluate the recovery after CABG, which may help to better identify patients who may have adverse cardiac events.

Maladaptive cognitive positively predicted IGD ( β=0.464, 95% CI=0.232-0.696). Maladaptive cognition played a mediating role between conflict of family relationships and IGD, and the mediating effect value was 0.173 (95% CI=0.020-0.366), accounting for 34.33%(0.173/0.504) of the total effect. Conclusion:Family relationships are related to IGD in adolescents. Maladaptive cognition may play a mediating role between family relationships and IGD in adolescents.

OBJECTIVE To prepare spider fibroin membrane loaded with Periplaneta americana extract， and investigate its characterization， in vitro drug release property and cytotoxicity. METHODS Using natural spider silk collected from Chilobrachys guangxiensis as raw material， P. americana extract as model drug， the drug-loaded spider fibroin membrane （hereinafter referred to as drug-loaded membrane） was prepared by solvent casting method. The material matrix spider fibroin membrane without P. americana extract （hereinafter referred to as blank membrane） was prepared with same method. The membrane structure was characterized by static water contact angle， Fourier infrared chromatography， X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy from different angles； drug release characteristics in artificial saliva were simulated in vitro to evaluate the drug sustained-release performance. MTT assay was adopted to validate the cytotoxicity of drug-loaded membrane. RESULTS The drug-loaded membrane was prepared， and the static water contact angle was less than 90°， which was less than that of blank membrane. The drug-loaded membrane showed the characteristic absorption peak to polypeptide of P. americana extract at 1 500-1 700 cm－1. X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy also proved that the drug was successfully loaded into the pellicle. The release time of the pellicle in artificial saliva was more than 200 min. The MTT test results showed that the cell proliferation rates of blank membrane and drug-loaded membrane were 84.6% and 79.4% （both greater than 70%）， respectively， without significant potential cytotoxicity. CONCLUSIONS Drug-loaded membrane prepared with natural spider silk has a certain sustained-release effect in artificial saliva， which can be further developed as a drug sustained-release carrier with excellent biological characteristics and biocompatibility.
