Objective: To investigate the epidemiological characteristics of hand, foot, and mouth disease (HFMD) in Haishu District, Ningbo City, Zhejiang Province from 2011 to 2022, so as to provide the basis for the formulation of HFMD prevention and control strategies. Methods: Data of HFMD in Haishu District from 2011 to 2022 were collected from Chinese Disease Prevention and Control Information System, and the epidemiological and etiological characteristics were analyzed using a descriptive epidemiological method. The trends in incidence of HFMD and prevalence of positive etiological tests were analyzed using annual percent change (APC). Results: A total of 33 334 cases of HFMD were reported in Haishu District from 2011 to 2022, with an average annual reported incidence of 279.16/105, showing no significant trend (APC=-5.492%, P>0.05). The average annual reported incidence of HFMD was lower after the enterovirus 71 vaccine was launched (from 2017 to 2022) than before (from 2011 to 2016; 219.69/105 vs. 343.70/105, P<0.05). The incidence of HFMD showed seasonal characteristics, with a peak from May to July. There were 19 720 male and 13 614 female cases, with a male-to-female ratio of 1.45∶1. The age of the HFMD cases ranged from 27 days to 63 years old, and the children aged 5 years and below were predominant (30 657 cases, 91.97%). A total of 1 976 specimens of HFMD cases were collected from 2011 to 2022, and 1 509 enterovirus positive specimens were detected, with a positive rate of 76.37%. The positive rates of enterovirus 71 decreased (APC=-32.599%, P<0.05), the positive rates of coxsackievirus A16 increased (APC=9.226%, P<0.05), while the positive rates of other enteroviruses showed no significant change (APC=0.808%, P>0.05). Conclusions The average annual reported incidence of HFMD in Haishu District from 2011 to 2022 decreased after the enterovirus 71 vaccine was launched, with a peak in spring and summer. Children aged 5 years and below were the high-incidence population, and coxsackievirus A16 was the main serotype.

Objective To investigate the impact of intrauterine infection combined with perinatal antibi-otic treatment on early neonatal gut microbiota.Methods Forty-six full term neonates delivered and hospital-ized in the Pediatrics Department of Women and Children's Hospital of Chongqing Medical University from January to June 2022 were selected as the study subjects.They were divided into the observation group (hav-ing,n=22) and the control group (not having,n=24) according to whether or not the mothers having chorio-amnionitis.The fecal samples were collected from the subjects on 0-2 d and 5-7 d after birth.The high-throughput sequencing technology was applied to conduct the bacterial 16S rRNA gene sequencing analysis in the fecal samples.The diversity,classification and relative abundance of gut floras were compared.Results Compared with the control group,the antibiotics use rate in prenatal and neonatal period in the observation group was higher,the antibiotic use duration in the neonatal period was longer,and the differences were statistically sig-nificant (P<0.05).The Shannon index on 5-7 d after birth in the two groups was increased compared with that on 0-2 d,moreover the observation group was lower than the control group,and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05).The two groups of gut floras were mainly composed of Proteobacteria,Fir-micutes,Bacteroidetes,and Actinobacteria. Compared with the control group,the relative abundance of Pro-teobacteria on 5-7 d after birth in the observation group was higher,and the relative abundance of Actinobac-teria was lower,the differences were statistical significant (P<0.05). The two groups of gut floras were mainly composed of Bifidobacterium,Enterococcus,Streptococcus,Klebsiella,Bacteroidetes,and Escherichia/Shigella genera.Compared with the control group,the relative abundance of Bifidobacterium,Streptococcus and Bacteroides on 5-7 d after birth in the observation group was lower,the relative abundance of Klebsiella,and Escherichia/Shigella was higher,the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05).Conclusion In-trauterine infection and perinatal antibiotic treatment decrease the diversity of early neonatal gut flora,and the development of specific floras is delayed.

Objective:To explore the effect and mechanism of taxifolin (TAX) on ameliorating cisplatin-induced renal oxidative damage.Methods:(1) Forty male C57BL/6 mice were divided into 4 groups: control group ( n=10), TAX group ( n=10), cisplatin group ( n=10) and cisplatin+TAX group ( n=10). The weight of mice in each group was measured. The level of serum creatinine (Scr) and blood urea nitrogen (BUN) was analyzed. Kidney histopathological change in mice was analyzed by HE staining. The pro-inflammatory cytokines levels of interleukin-6 (IL-6) and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) were measured by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay. The levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS), malondialdehyde (MDA), superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT) and glutathione (GSH) were measured by multifunctional microplate reader. The expression of inflammatory factors, antioxidant genes, and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ coactivator-1α ( PGC- 1) mRNA were measured by real-time PCR. Evaluation of mitochondrial function by measuring ATP level and mtDNA content. Determination of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) and phosphorylated AMPK protein expression by Western blotting. (2) Evaluate the effect of taxifolin on chemotherapy of cisplatin by establishing Lewis lung cancer transplantation tumor C57BL/6 mice model. Results:Compared with the control group, the weight of the mice in the TAX group was not significantly reduced ( P>0.05), and there was no obvious kidney damage ( P>0.05), indicating that oral TAX had good safety. Compared with the cisplatin group, TAX could significantly delay cisplatin-induced the weight loss of mice, reduce the levels of Scr and BUN, and alleviate the pathological changes of kidney tissue (all P<0.05). TAX could reduce the levels of serum inflammatory factors IL-6 and TNF-α and the expression of renal inflammatory factors IL- 6, TNF- α and IL- 1β mRNA induced by cisplatin in mice (all P<0.05). TAX could significantly reduce the levels of ROS and MDA, and increase the activities of SOD, CAT and GSH in cisplatin-induced acute kidney injury mice (all P<0.01). Meanwhile, TAX could up-regulate the mRNA expression of UCP2, SOD2, CAT antioxidant genes and PGC- 1α in the kidneys of mice with acute kidney injury induced by cisplatin, and increase the levels of ATP and mtDNA in cisplatin-induced acute kidney injury mice (all P<0.01). Western blotting results showed that TAX significantly promoted the expression of phosphorylated AMPK protein in cisplatin-induced acute kidney injury mice ( P<0.01). In addition, through the establishment of Lewis lung cancer transplantation tumor C57BL/6 mice model, it was found that TAX had no significant effect on the anti-tumor efficacy of cisplatin. Conclusions:TAX can ameliorate cisplatin-induced renal oxidative damage, and its mechanism may be related to the activation of AMPK/PGC-1α pathway.

Objective:To investigate the application value of three-dimensional (3D) printing technology assisted laparoscopic anatomic liver resection of segment 8 (Lap-S8).Methods:The retrospective and descriptive study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 8 liver cancer patients including 7 cases with hepatocellular carcinoma and 1 case with intrahepatic cholangio-carcinoma who underwent 3D printing technology assisted Lap-S8 in the Hunan Provincial People′s Hospital from January 2019 to December 2020 were collected. There were 7 males and 1 female, aged from 49.0 to 80.0 years, with a median age of 56.5 years. Of the 8 patients, 6 cases underwent laparoscopic anatomic liver resection of the entire segment 8, 1 case underwent laparoscopic anatomic liver resection of ventral subsegmental of the segment 8 and 1 case underwent laparoscopic anatomic liver resection of dorsal subsegmental of the segment 8. 3D printing technology was used to assist preoperative evaluation and intraoperative navigation for all 8 patients. Observation indicators: (1) surgical situations; (2) postoperative situations; (3) follow-up. Follow-up was conducted using outpatient examination, internet or telephone interview to detect survival and tumor recurrence of patients after operation up to March 2021. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean±SD, and measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M(range). Count data were described as absolute numbers. Results:(1) Surgical situations: all the 8 patients underwent 3D printing technology assisted Lap-S8 successfully, without conversion to open surgery. The operation time, hepatic portal occlusion time and volume of intraoperative blood loss of the 8 patients were (216±41)minutes, (56±11)minutes and 75 mL(range, 50 to 300 mL), respectively. There was no intraoperative blood transfusion in 8 patients, and the surgical margin of the 8 patients was negative. (2) Postoperative situations: the duration of postoperative hospital stay of the 8 patients were (9±3)days. There was no complication such as postoperative hemorrhage, biliary fistula, liver abscess or abdominal infection occurred. (3) Follow-up: all the 8 patients were followed up for 3.0?24.0 months, with a median follow-up time of 12.5 months. During the follow-up, 1 of 8 patients with preoperative diagnosis of recurrent hepatocellular carcinoma developed tumor recurrence at 5 months after operation. The patient underwent laparoscopic surgery followed with the transcatheter arterial chemoembolization and target therapy, and survived with tumor. There was no tumor recurrence in the other 7 patients.Conclusion:3D printing technology assisted Lap-S8 is safe and feasible.
