Objective To explore the risk factors of perioperative blood transfusion in patients with recurrent nasopharyngeal carcinoma undergoing nasal endoscopic surgery,and construct a nomogram predic-tion model.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 262 patients who un-derwent the nasal endoscopic surgery from January 2021 to May 2023.The patients were divided into two groups according to perioperative blood transfusion or not:non-transfusion group and transfusion group.Uni-variate and multivariate logistic regression were conducted to identify independentrisk factors of perioperative blood transfusion,and a nomogram prediction model was developed.The receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was drawn,and the area under the curve(AUC)was calculated.Results The incidence of blood transfusion in patients with recurrent nasopharyngeal carcinoma undergoing nasal endoscopic surgery was 46(17.6％).Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that preoperative hemoglobin level 70 to＜100 g/L(OR=6.178,95％CI 2.271-16.805,P＜0.001),preoperative albumin level 25 to＜35 g/L(OR=2.126,95％CI 1.021-4.424,P=0.044),and classification of surgery grade Ⅲ or Ⅳ (OR=4.725,95％CI 1.634-13.584,P=0.004)were independent risk factors for predicting perioper-ative blood transfusion in patients with recurrent nasopharyngeal carcinoma undergoing nasal endoscopic sur-gery.The AUC of the nomogram model was 0.769(95％CI 0.701-0.838),the sensitivity was 67.6％,and the specificity was 76.1％.Conclusion Preoperative hemoglobin level 70 to＜100 g/L,preoperative albumin level 25 to＜35 g/L,and classification of surgery grade Ⅲ or Ⅳ are independent risk factors of perioperative blood transfusion in patients with recurrent nasopharyngeal carcinoma undergoing nasal endo-scopic surgery.The nomogram model established based on the above risk factors has good predictive ability for perioperative blood transfusion.

Objective:There are significant differences in the distribution of gut microbiota among different populations in different regions.This study mainly explores the structure and distribution of gut microbiota between cow's milk protein allergy（CMPA）children and healthy children in Xiamen,Fujian,and further explores the correlation between gut microbiota and the occurrence and development of CMPA.Methods:Fecal samples have been collected from 30 children with CMPA diagnosed at Xiamen Children’s Hospital from June 2022 to March 2023,and fecal samples from 30 healthy children of the same age have also been collected.The structure and distribution of gut microbiota between the two groups were analyzed using 16S rDNA gene sequencing and bioinformatics analysis.Results:The structure and distribution of gut microbiota between CMPA children and healthy children were quite different.There were no significant differences in α diversity index between groups（ P>0.05）.The analysis of similarities test results showed that there was a significant difference in the distribution of gut microbiota between two groups（ R=0.037, P<0.05）.The β diversity index from PCA showed that there was a significant difference in bacterial community structure between two groups（ P<0.05）.Compared with healthy children,the abundance of Akkermansia in CMPA children was significantly decreased and the abundance of Corynebacterium was significantly increased in CMPA children.LEfSe showed that Proteobacteria were mainly enriched in CMPA children,while Lachnospiraceae were mainly enriched in healthy children.In addition,KEGG analysis showed that the top enrichment of 20 pathways,such as Fructose and mannose metabolism,was significantly decreased in CMPA children（ P<0.05）.COG analysis showed that the enrichment of pathways such as Galactose mutarotase and related enzymes was significantly decreased in CMPA children（ P<0.05）,while the enrichment of pathways including Predicted metal-sulfur cluster biosynthetic enzyme and other two pathways was significantly increased（ P<0.05）. Conclusion:There are significant differences in the structure and distribution of gut microbiota between CMPA children and healthy children,suggesting that a strong correlation between the occurrence and development of CMPA and the gut microbiota.

Active immunotherapy for cancer aims to treat disease by inducing effective cellular immunity and humoral immunity.Research on virus-like particles(VLPs)vaccines has made tremendous progress in recent years,dramatically reducing morbidity and mortality from some infectious diseases.VLPs are nanoparticles self-assembled from one or more structural proteins,with highly ordered repeat sequences and good immunogenicity,which can induce strong cellular immune and humoral immune responses.VLPs can overcome immunosuppressive state of tumor microenvironment,break self-tolerance,and trigger strong cytotoxic T lymphocyte activity,which is critical for both viral clearance and destruction of cancer cells.This article mainly reviews current research progress of VLPs-based cancer vaccines and potential defects of VLPs as vaccine carriers in development of cancer vaccines.

Virus-like particles(VLPs)are nanoparticles that are self-assembled from one or more structural proteins,which can be arranged in several layers or contain a lipid outer membrane.Due to the lack of genetic material,VLPs cannot infect host cells,but are highly immunogenic and can induce immune responses different from conventional inactivated vaccines.VLPs can be produced using a variety of systems including bacterial,yeast,plant,insect and mammalian cells.Compared with traditional vaccines,VLPs have incomparable advantages,so they are becoming more and more popular in the biomedical field.To date,a series of vaccine candi-dates based on VLPs have been developed for immunization and prevention of various infectious diseases.At the same time,the recent successful application of VLPs in targeted drug delivery and gene therapy has attracted attention.This paper mainly reviews the com-monly used expression systems of VLPs and the research progress of their applications.

BACKGROUND: The clinical features of enthesitis in patients with psoriatic arthritis (PsA) have been reported in some Western countries, but data in China are very limited. This study aimed to describe the characteristics of enthesitis in Chinese patients with PsA and compared them with those in other cohorts. METHODS: Patients with PsA enrolled in the Chinese Registry of Psoriatic Arthritis (CREPAR) (December 2018 to June 2021) were included. Data including demographics, clinical characteristics, disease activity measures, and treatment were collected at enrollment. Enthesitis was assessed by the Spondyloarthritis Research Consortium of Canada (SPARCC), Maastricht ankylosing spondylitis enthesitis score (MASES), and Leeds enthesitis index (LEI) indices. A multivariable logistic model was used to identify factors related to enthesitis. We also compared our results with those of other cohorts. RESULTS: In total, 1074 PsA patients were included, 308 (28.7%) of whom had enthesitis. The average number of enthesitis was 3.3 ± 2.8 (range: 1.0-18.0). More than half of the patients (165, 53.6%) had one or two tender entheseal sites. Patients with enthesitis had an earlier age of onset for both psoriasis and arthritis, reported a higher proportion of PsA duration over 5 years, and had a higher percentage of axial involvement and greater disease activity. Multivariable logistic regression showed that axial involvement (odds ratio [OR] 2.21, 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.59-3.08; P <0.001), psoriasis area and severity index (PASI) (OR: 1.03, 95% CI: 1.01-1.04; P = 0.002), and disease activity score 28-C reactive protein (DAS28-CRP) (OR: 1.25, 95% CI: 1.01-1.55; P = 0.037) were associated with enthesitis. Compared with the results of other studies, Chinese patients with enthesitis had a younger age, lower body mass index (BMI), a higher rate of positive human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-B27, more frequent dactylitis, and a higher proportion of conventional synthetic disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs' (csDMARDs) use. CONCLUSIONS Enthesitis is a common condition among Chinese patients with PsA. It is important to evaluate entheses in both peripheral and axial sites.

ObjectiveTo explore the therapeutic effect and mechanism of intermittent theta burst transcranial magnetic stimulation (iTBS) on non-fluent aphasia after stroke. MethodsFrom August, 2021 to August, 2022, 50 patients with non-fluent aphasia after stroke in the First People's Hospital of Lianyungang were randomly divided into sham stimulation group (n = 25) and iTBS group (n = 25). Both groups accepted speach training. iTBS group accepted iTBS, and the sham stimulation group received sham iTBS, for four weeks. The serum brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) was measured, and they were assessed by China Rehabilitation Research Center Standard Aphasia Examination (CRRCAE) and Boston Diagnostic Aphasia Examination before and after treatment. ResultsTwo cases in the sham stimulation group and three cases in iTBS group dropped down. The BDNF level, and listen and understand, repeat, name, read aloud, and total score of CRRCAE improved in two groups after treatment (|t| > 5.012, P < 0.001); and they were better in iTBS group than in the sham stimulation group (|t| > 3.968, P < 0.001). The total effective rate was more in iTBS group than in the sham stimulation group (χ² = 8.835, P < 0.05). ConclusioniTBS can improve speech function in patients with non-fluent aphasia after stroke, which may associate with the promotion of BDNF.

Background Kunming is a plateau city with sufficient sunshine, high ultraviolet intensity, and strong radiation. In recent years, ozone (O₃) pollution has gradually become the primary problem of air pollution in the city. Objective To evaluate the health effects of atmospheric O₃ exposure on non-accidental deaths in Kunming. Methods The data of meteorological variables (average temperature, average relative humidity, average air pressure, and average wind speed), air pollutants (PM_2.5, PM₁₀, SO₂, CO, and O₃) and non-accidental deaths (NAD) of residents were collected in Kunming from 2017 to 2019. A generalized additive model was adopted to conduct time-series analyses on the current-day (lag0), single-day (lag1-lag3), and cumulative lag (lag01-lag03) effects of O₃ on NAD; furthermore, hierarchical analyses by gender, age, and season (warm and cold) were conducted. Results The average concentration of O₃-8h from 2017 to 2019 was (84.3±32.3) μg·m⁻³. For every 10 μg·m⁻³ increase in O₃-8h concentration, the NAD risks of lag0, lag01, and lag02 of total population increased by 0.70% (95%CI: 0.11%-1.29%) 0.79% (95%CI: 0.14%-1.44%), and 0.75% (95%CI: 0.08%-1.43%), respectively; for women, the NAD risks of lag2 and lag02 increased by 0.80% (95%CI: 0.08%-1.53%) and 1.05% (95%CI: 0.09%-2.03%) respectively; for the residents over the age of 65, the associated NAD risks of lag0, lag01, and lag02 increased by 0.82% (95%CI: 0.16%-1.48%), 0.93% (95%CI: 0.20%-1.67%), and 0.96% (95%CI: 0.20%-1.73%), respectively; in the warm season, the NAD risks of lag0, lag01, and lag02 increased by 0.91% (95%CI: 0.12%-1.70%), 0.98% (95%CI: 0.12%-1.86%), and 1.00% (95%CI: 0.07%-1.93%), respectively; After introducing PM_2.5, PM₁₀, SO₂, NO₂, and CO to the model, the effects of O₃ exposure level on resident’s NAD was not statistically significant. Conclusion An increase of O₃ exposure level associates with an increase of NAD risk in residents, and there is a lag effect. Residents over the age of 65, women, and all residents in warm season may be more sensitive to O₃ exposure.

Objective:To investigate the relationship between psoriasis severity and clinical features in psoriatic arthritis (PsA).Methods:Patients were recruited from the Chinese REgistry of Psoriatic ARthritis (CREPAR) between December 2018 and June 2021, and data were collected including the baseline demographic characteristics, various clinical manifestations (including arthritis, nail disease, comorbidities), laboratory tests[including erythrocyte sedimentation rate(ESR), C-reactive protein (CRP)], health assessment questionnaire (HAQ). Body surface area (BSA) and psoriasis area and severity index (PASI) were selected for the tools of assessment of cutaneous psoriasis. Patients were divided to two groups, including the severe psoriasis group (BSA>10%) and the non-severe psoriasis group (BSA≤10%). Disease assessment included ankylosing spondylitis disease activity score (ASDAS), disease activity score 28 (DAS28) and disease activity in psoriatic arthritis (DAPSA).Results:1 074 eligible patients with PsA were recruited, and 106 (9.9%) had severe psoriasis. Compared with non-severe psoriasis group, the severe psoriasis group had more peripheral joint involvement (including patients with ever or current peripheral arthritis, 94.3% vs. 85.6%), more polyarticular joint involvement (including patients with current peripheral arthritis, 74.0% vs. 58.2%), more axial joint involvement (51.4% vs. 39.9%), more nail disease (72.6% vs. 61.4%), more frequency of smoking (20.2% vs. 18.7%), and higher proportion of hypertension (23.4% vs. 14.4%). In addition, the severe psoriasis group had higher level of ESR [33(10, 70) mm/1h vs. 20(9, 38) mm/1h] and CRP [18.6(5.0, 60.8) mg/L vs. 7.0(2.4, 18.1) mg/L], higher values of DAS28-ESR (4.5±1.7 vs. 3.7±1.5), DAS28-CRP (4.2±1.5 vs. 3.4±1.4), ASDAS-ESR (3.5±1.4 vs. 2.6±1.2), and ASDAS-CRP(3.4±1.6 vs. 2.5±1.2), higher scores of HAQ [0.6(0.1, 1.0) vs. 0.3(0.0, 0.8)].Conclusion:Patients with PsA with severe psoriasis bore a heavier disease burden. Therefore, clinicians were supposed to pay more attention to them. In addition to skin lesions, they should also focus on examination of other clinical manifestations, such as joints and nails.

Objective:To investigate the causes of secondary glaucoma after vitrectomy for familial vitreous amyloidosis associated with transthyretin (TTR) gene Gly83Arg mutation.Methods:A retrospective case study. From January 2008 to January 2020, 13 cases (23 eyes) with hereditary vitreous amyloidosis and treated by vitrectomy in the Affiliated Hospital of Zunyi Medical University were collected. Among them, there were 7 males with 12 eyes and 6 females with 11 eyes. The average age was 43.0±4.8 years. All the affected eyes underwent standard three-channel vitrectomy through the flat part of the ciliary body. According to whether complete vitreous detachment (PVD) was formed during the operation, it was divided into complete PVD group and incomplete PVD group; according to the occurrence time of secondary glaucoma and vitreous amyloidosis after surgery, it was divided into 1-12 months group and 13-36 months group, >37 months group. The average follow-up time after surgery was 36.7±6.0 months. The incidence of secondary glaucoma and the recurrence rate of vitreous amyloidosis between groups were compared by χ2 test; the correlation between recurrence of vitreous amyloidosis and secondary glaucoma after surgery was analyzed by Spearman rank correlation analysis. Results:Among the 23 eyes, there were 8 eyes in the complete PVD group and 15 eyes in the incomplete PVD group, respectively. Vitreous amyloidosis recurred in 15 eyes (65.22%, 15/23) after surgery. There were 14 (93.30%, 14/15) and 1 (6.70%, 1/15) eyes in the incomplete PVD group and the complete PVD group, respectively; the comparison of the recurrence rate of vitreous amyloidosis between the two groups was statistically significant ( χ2=11.676, P<0.01). 1-12 months group, 13-36 months group, >37 months group included 1 (4.35%, 1/23), 12 (52.17%, 12/23), 2 (8.70%, 2/23) Only eye. The recurrence rate in the 13-36 months group was significantly higher than that in the 1-12 months group and >37 month group. Secondary glaucoma occurred in 11 eyes (47.80%, 11/23) after surgery. 1-12 months group, 13-36 months group, above 37 months group were 1 (4.35%, 1/23), 8 (34.78%, 8/23), 2 (8.70%, 2/23) eyes. The incidence of secondary glaucoma in the 13-36 months group was higher than that in the 1-12 months group and >37 months group. Among 11 eyes with secondary glaucoma, 10 eyes had recurrence of vitreous amyloidosis after surgery, and 1 eye had no recurrence. The results of Spearman rank correlation analysis showed that there was a positive correlation between the recurrence of vitreous amyloidosis and the occurrence of secondary glaucoma ( rs=0.516, P=0.012). Conclusion:The incidence of secondary glaucoma after vitrectomy in a family with vitreous amyloidosis caused by the Gly83Arg mutation of TTR gene is higher, and its occurrence is significantly positively correlated with the recurrence of vitreous amyloidosis.
