Objective:To analyze the temporal distribution of other infectious diarrhea (OID) in Shenzhen and provide evidence for the prevention and control of OID.Methods:The incidence data of OID in Shenzhen from 2011 to 2023 were collected. The seasonal and trend decomposition using loess (STL), seasonal index method, concentration degree and circular distribution method were used to analyze the incidence trend and temporal distribution of OID.Results:A total of 477 611 cases of OID were reported in Shenzhen from 2011 to 2023, with an average annual incidence rate of 260.19/100 000 showing a fluctuating upward trend. The seasonal index method indicated that October-January was period with high incidence of OID in Shenzhen and the seasonal intensity began to decrease in 2020. STL revealed an obvious incidence peak in winter. The concentration method showed that OID had a certain seasonality before 2018 except 2016, but the seasonality was not obvious after 2018. The circular distribution results showed that r was 0.05, mean angle ā was 1.92° and angular standard deviation s was 141.93° ( Z=1 033.37, P<0.001), with the peak on January 1 st and the high incidence period from August 11 th to May 25 th. Conclusions:OID had a certain degree of seasonality in Shenzhen, with an obvious incidence peak in winter. Since the seasonal intensity of OID decreased after 2018, the surveillance, early warning and risk assessment of OID should be continued, and prevention and control measures should be adjusted timely according to the change in the characteristics of the epidemic.

BACKGROUND: Studying the relationship between flexibility and body composition of college students is of great significance for enhancing the levels of physical health and sports. OBJECTIVE: To investigate the relationship between sit-and-reach and body composition of college students in Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region and differences between sexes. METHODS: Totally 2 175 students from a Guangxi university were randomly selected. Body composition was determined by the MC-180 body composition tester. The students were divided into four groups: ≤ 12.10 cm group,＞ 12.10-16.40 cm group,＞ 16.40-20.70 group and＞ 20.70 group according to quartile of sit-and-reach measured in accordance with the National Physical Health Test Standard. All data were processed by SPSS 22.0 software. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Sit-and-reach was significantly correlated with body mass index, percentage of body fat, fat-free mass index, upper limb lean mass and lower limb lean mass (P ＜ 0.05), and percentage of body fat was negatively correlated with sit-and-reach (P ＜ 0.05). The body mass index, fat-free mass index, upper limb lean mass and lower limb lean mass in the ≤ 12.10 cm group were significantly lower than those in the other groups. Fat-free mass index and upper limb lean mass were correlated with sit-and-reach in male college students (P ＜ 0.05). The fat-free mass index and upper limb lean mass in the＞ 16.40-20.70 cm group were significantly higher than those in the ≤ 12.10 cm group. Therefore, there is a positive correlation between the flexibility and fat-free mass index and upper limb lean mass in college students.

Objective: To investigate the clinical features of childhood epilepsy with occipital paroxysms. Methods: The clinical data of 33 children admitted to our hospital from 2015 to 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. Results: The children were divided into three groups: idiopathic group (n=20), structural group (n=10) and genetic group (n=3). Among the structural etiology group, there were 1 case of megagyrus malformation, 1 case of focal cortical dysplasia type Ⅱ (FCDⅡ), 1 case of gestational age infant with enlarged ventricle, and 7 cases of perinatal ischemic-hypoxic encephalopathy (HIE). In the genetic group, there were 1 case of PCDH19 gene mutation, 1 case of cyclin-dependent kinase like 5 (CDKL5) deficiency disorder and 1 case of Wolf-Hirschhorn syndrome. All three groups had ocular motor symptoms and secondary motor symptoms. Compared with the structural group, patients of the idiopathic group had more autonomic symptoms, less visual symptoms, longer ictal duration, less episodes, less abnormal background rhythm, and more epileptic discharges in the frontal lobe or Rolandic area. The genetic group had frequent seizures and the CDKL5 deficiency disorder patient had slowed background and spasms. Compared with the other two groups, patients of the idiopathic group had fewer MRI abnormalities, better seizure control effect, and better prognosis. Conclusions There are many causes of childhood epilepsy with occipital paroxysms. The idiopathic group accounts for a large proportion. The visual symptoms and autonomic symptoms are different between groups. Background abnormalities are detected more often in the structural group and the genetic group, which is also helpful for differential diagnosis. The treatment options and prognosis of different groups vary greatly. The overall therapeutic effect and prognosis of the idiopathic group are better than those of the structural group and the genetic group.

Objective To observe 100 video-electroencephalogram (EEG)-cases of intellectual disability (ID) children,to analyze their EEG features of different degrees of ID,to explore the relationship between EEG changes and ID.Methods We performed a retrospective analysis of long-range video-EEGs of 100 children with an unexplained reason of ID from July 2016 to May 2018 in the department of pediatrics of Xiangya Hospital of Central South University,sumnarized their EEG manifestations,and compared their differences among different degrees of ID.We carried out x2 test according to the degree of ID,and discussed the relationship between the degree of ID and EEG.Results Among 100 cases of ID children with unexplained pathogenic factor,67 cases (67％) of them were males,33 cases (33 ％) of females,38 cases (38％)of mild ID,27 cases (27％) of moderate ID and 35 cases (35％) of severe ID.The EEG background of ID patients showed fast waves (11％),slow waves (15％),generalized discharges (14％) and focal discharges (36％),etc.Focal sharp and spike-wave were the most common in children with moderate ID,while background changes and multifocal sharp spike wave were more common in severe ID children.Conclusions The EEG background changes in children with severe ID have significant differences than mild and moderate degree ones.The specific features of EEG in mild and moderate degree ones is focal discharges,while multiple discharges in severe ID patients.Changes in the EEG may be related to the extent of intellectual disability.

Objective To develop a simple microfluidic chip technology for analyzing the electrotaxis of cancer cells . Methods The basic structure of the proposed microfluidic electrotaxis chip included a straight microchannel and liquid storage pools located on both sides of the microchannel .Two platinum electrodes were inserted into the liquid pools to create a controllable direct current ( DC ) field in the microchannel .The distribution and strength of the DC field in the microchannel was analyzed by the finite element analysis software COMSOL multiphysics and experiment tests .Finally, the electrotactic behavior of the rhabdomyosarcoma RD cells in the DC field of different strength was characterized using the accumulated distance, average velocity, x forward migration index ( xFMI) and y forward migration index ( yFMI) as quantitative parameters.Results The results of element analysis and experiments showed that the structure of the designed microfluidic electrotaxis chip was able to guarantee a uniform and strength-controllable DC field in the microchannel .The experiment of cell electrotaxis showed that the RD cells migrated toward the anode of the DC field .Meanwhile , the values of xFMI and accumulated distance for RD cells increased with the enlargement of the DC field , with the strength ranging from 188 to 1320 V/m.Conclusion The microfluidic chip technology developed in this paper for assaying the electrotaxis of cancer cells is simple and easily implementable , and it can be used for studies of the electrotactic behavior and underlying mechanisms of various cancer cells and normal cells in the future .

ObjectiveTo investigate the correlation between HBsAg, prothrombin time activity (PTA), and indocyanine green retention rate at 15 minutes (ICG R15) in patients with HBeAg-positive chronic HBV infection. MethodsA total of 92 patients with HBeAg-positive chronic HBV infection who were admitted to The First Hospital of Lanzhou University from December 2015 to April 2016 were enrolled and divided into chronic hepatitis B (CHB) group (24 patients), compensated liver cirrhosis group (38 patients), and decompensated liver cirrhosis group (30 patients). Serum HBsAg quantitation, PTA test, and liver reserve function test (ICG R15) were performed for all patients. The chi-square test was used for comparison of categorical data between groups, an analysis of variance was used for comparison of continuous data between multiple groups, and a Pearson correlation analysis was also performed. ResultsThere were significant differences between the three groups in serum HBsAg quantitation (3.82±0.43 log10IU/ml vs 2.88±0.36 log10IU/ml vs 2.60±0.27 log10IU/ml, F=25.19, P＜0.001), ICG R15 (7.51%±3.10% vs 9.57%±8.18% vs 24.13%±14.28%, F=24.00, P=0.001), and PTA (8100%±1762% vs 83.08%±9.64% vs 62.32%±16.90%, F=13.42, P=0.009). The correlation analysis showed that PTA was negatively correlated with ICG R15 in all three groups (r=-0.948, -0.602, and -0.735, all P＜0.01). In the compensated liver cirrhosis group and decompensated liver cirrhosis group, HBsAg was positively correlated with PTA (r=0.410 and 0.473, both P＜0.05) and negatively correlated with ICG R15 (r=-0.427 and -0.768, P＜0.01). ConclusionIn HBeAg positive patients, there are certain correlations between HBsAg, PTA, and ICG R15, which, to a certain degree, reflects the liver reserve function in patients with chronic HBV infection.
