OBJECTIVE T o explore the value of targeted next-generation sequencing(t-NGS)in diagnosis of respir-atory tract pathogens through meta-analysis so as to provide reference for clinical application.METHODS PubMed database,Web of Science database,Wanfang database,CNKI database and Sinomed database were retrieved,and the time period of retrieval ranged from Jan.2010 to May 2024.The literatures were screened out based on the es-tablished standards.The quality was assessed by QU ADAS-2,the risk of bias graph was drawn by Revman 5.4,and the statistical analysis was performed by Stata 16.0.RESULTS A total of 9 literatures were included in the study.The result of meta-analysis showed that the heterogeneity test Q for sensitivity was 268.21,P＜0.01,I2=97.02％,with the heterogeneity test Q for specificity 210.04,P＜0.01,I2=96.19％,the combined sensitivity 0.88(95％CI:0.62 to 0.97),combined specificity 0.68(95％CI:0.41 to 0.86),combined positive likelihood ratio 2.72(95％CI:1.44 to 5.15),combined negative likelihood ratio 0.18(95％CI:0.06 to 0.53),combined diagno-sis score 2.74(95％CI:1.68 to 3.80),and combined diagnostic odds ratio 15.44(95％CI:5.34 to 44.66).The area under synthesize receiver operating characteristic(SROC)curve(AUC)was 0.85(95％CI:0.82 to 0.88).The result of Deeks funnel plot showed that P was 0.99,indicating that there was no obvious publication bias.CONCLUSIONS The sensitivity of tNGS is high in detection of the pathogens causing acute respiratory tract infection,the specificity needs to be improved,but its comprehensive ability is satisfactory.It has certain val-ue in early clinical diagnosis.

Objective:To analyze the association between inflammation-related dietary patterns and the risk for cognitive impairment in older adults aged ≥65 years in longevity areas in China by using reduced rank regression (RRR) analysis.Methods:This study used cross-sectional data from the 2021 Healthy Aging and Biomarkers Cohort Study, including the information about study participants' demographic characteristics, lifestyles, daily life activities, and disease histories. Dietary intake was obtained by using a simplified food frequency questionnaire. Cognitive impairment was evaluated based on the Mini-Mental State Examination Scale combined with years of education. Fasting venous blood samples were collected to detect inflammatory markers, especially high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) and the platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR). RRR analysis was used to obtain inflammation-related dietary patterns using hs-CRP and PLR as response variables. Multivariate logistic regression model was used to analyze the association between dietary pattern score and the risk for cognitive impairment. Restricted cubic spline was used to explore the dose response relationship, and mediation analysis was used to quantify the mediating effects of hs-CRP and PLR.Results:Two dietary patterns were identified with RRR. The primary pattern was characterized by higher intakes of flour, red meat, and dairy products, and lower intake of fresh vegetables, explaining 6.84% of the variance in food intake and 0.50% of the variance in inflammatory markers. Compared with the T1 group, the T3 group had significantly higher risk for cognitive impairment ( OR=1.242, 95% CI: 1.034-1.491). Each one standard deviation increase in the dietary pattern score was associated with an 8.7% increase in the risk for cognitive impairment ( OR=1.087, 95% CI: 1.008-1.172), with a significant linear trend (overall-model P<0.001, non-linear P=0.295). Mediation analysis indicated that hs-CRP mediated 6.2% of the association between the dietary pattern and the risk for cognitive impairment. Conclusion:The inflammation- related dietary pattern characterized by higher consumption of flour, red meat, and dairy products and lower consumption of fresh vegetables is associated with an increased risk for cognitive impairment in older adults, and hs-CRP partially mediates this association.

OBJECTIVE To explore the anti-tumor effect of Yiqi Yangyin Jiedu Recipe on Lewis lung cancer mice and its influ-ence on immunomodulation.METHODS Lewis lung cancer mouse model was constructed by subcutaneous injection of Lewis lung cancer cells under the armpit and divided into model group,low dose group,medium dose group and high dose group.The tumor vol-ume,tumor inhibition rate and survival rate were calculated.The apoptosis and DNA damage of tumor cells were detected by HE stai-ning,TUNEL assay and comet assay respectively.The expression levels of IFN-γ,IL-2 and TNF-α were detected by ELISA.CD8+,CD8+/CD4+,PD1+,IFN-γ+,CD28+cells were detected by immunofluorescence and flow cytometry.The protein levels of PD1,CD69 and CD28 were detected by Western blot.RESULTS Yiqi Yangyin Jiedu Recipe has anti-tumor effects,prolonging survival,promo-ting apoptosis of tumor cells and aggravating DNA damage of tumor cells.Drug treatment promoted the expression of IFN-γ,IL-2 and TNF-α,increased the proportion of CD8+T,CD8+/CD4+T,IFN-γ+and CD28+cells,and inhibited the proportion of PD1+cells and protein expression,and the protein levels of CD69 and CD28 were significantly increased.CONCLUSION Yiqi Yangyin Jiedu Reci-pe can inhibit the development of tumor,and its regulation of immune function is the potential mechanism of its anti-tumor effect.

Non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC)is one of the most common and deadly malignant tumors worldwide,with surgical resection being the primary treatment for early-stage NSCLC.Tumor spread through air spaces(STAS)is a novel pattern of tumor dissemination into the air spaces in the lung.Its occurrence after sublobar resection is closely associated with recurrence and distant metastasis,making its con-sideration a vital factor in surgical strategy selection and prognostic evaluation.Patients with STAS-positive status exhibit significantly higher postoperative recurrence rates than do STAS-negative patients,with molecular mechanisms involving tumor microenvironment remodeling,specific genetic mutations,and epithelial-mesenchymal transition(EMT).Imaging techniques including computed tomography(CT)and positron emission tomography/CT have shown potential for preoperative STAS prediction,although their accuracy and practicality require improvement.This paper reviews the definition,pathological characteristics,and related mechanisms of STAS,with a focus on surgical ap-proach selection for STAS-positive patients and its role in cancer recurrence after sublobar resection of early-stage NSCLC.Future research directions include optimization of preoperative diagnostic methods for STAS,exploration of molecular targeted therapies,and development of imaging-based precision prediction models.

Mannheimia haemolytica is an important pathogen causing respiratory diseases in sheep,and the development of an inactivated vaccine of sheep origin against Mannheimia haemolytica is an effective means of prevention and control of this pathogen.In this study,Mannheimia haemo-lytica isolated from the diseased material collected from a sheep farm was screened for the most suitable vaccine strain by mouse pathogenicity test,and the inactivated vaccine was prepared by combining four antigenic amounts(106,107,108,109 CFU/mL)with three adjuvants(ISA 201 ad-juvant,ISA 206 adjuvant,and aluminum adjuvant),which were used in immunization and attack protection tests,and then screened for immunity and attack protection tests.Immunization and at-tack protection tests were conducted to screen the optimal antigen amount and adjuvants for inacti-vated vaccine preparation.Finally,the vaccine was prepared under the optimal conditions and the dynamic changes of antibody levels in immunized sheep were observed.The results showed that a total of 24 strains of Mannheimia haemolytica of sheep origin were isolated,among which 12 strains of serotype A1 were the dominant serotypes for the infection in this sheep farm;one strain of Mannheimia haemolytica of sheep origin of type A1(Mh1)was screened and obtained as the strain for vaccine preparation.Its LD50 for mice was 3.16 × 107 CFU/mL,with strong pathogenici-ty,and could cause pathological damage such as inflammatory cell infiltration of varying degrees in heart,liver,spleen,lung and kidney tissues;the results of the immunization and attack protection test showed that the optimal antigenic amount of the inactivated vaccine was 109CFU/mL,and the most suitable adjuvant was ISA 201,which stimulated the production of the highest antibody level and provided 100％protection for the mice.The protection rate of mice reached 100％,and good humoral immunity could be induced after immunizing sheep.The inactivated Mannheimia haemo-lytica type A1 vaccine prepared in this study has good immunoprotection effect,and lays a good foundation for the further development of commercial vaccine against Mannheimia haemolytica of sheep origin.
