Objective:To evaluate the immunogenicity and immune persistence of human rabies vaccine (Vero cell) in healthy people aged 10-17 years and compare it with a group of adults aged 18-60 years.Methods:This study was conducted between July 2021 and November 2022 with Shangyu district and Shengzhou city of Shaoxing city, Zhejiang Province selected as the research sites. Zagreb regimen (2-1-1 schedule) and Essen regimen (1-1-1-1-1 schedule) were used for rabies vaccine administration. Serum samples were collected at different time points before and after immunization to compare the differences in seropositivity rates and geometric mean concentrations (GMC) between the 10-17 age group and the 18-60 age group.Results:A total of 1 200 healthy participants aged 10-60 were included, with 157 individuals (13.1%) in the 10-17 age group and 1 043 individuals (86.9%) in the 18-60 age group. Both groups displayed a nearly 100% seropositivity rate at 3, 6 and 12 months, and the participants in the same age group had similar antibody levels. The GMC of antibodies gradually increased after vaccination and peaked on 14 d. The 10-17 age group showed higher GMC of antibodies than the 18-60 age group at 14 d after the first dose (Zagreb regimen: 81.85 IU/ml vs 63.15 IU/ml, t=2.411, P=0.018; Essen regimen: 86.61 IU/ml vs 69.24 IU/ml, t=3.906, P<0.001). Similar differences were observed in the GMC of antibodies at 14 d and 3 months after the full vaccination course, but these differences gradually decreased and disappeared at 6 and 12 months after vaccination. Conclusions:Human rabies vaccine (Vero cell) has lasting immune protection in all participants within one year after vaccination, with no significant differences between the two vaccination regimens. Participants aged 10-17 have higher antibody levels compared to adults aged 18-60, but there is no significant difference in immune persistence between the two age groups.

To review the clinical characteristics, short-term outcomes, and risk factors of patients with infective endocarditis(IE) who underwent surgical treatment at a single center, and to summarize treatment experience.

Objective A comparison of two method of establishing pressure ulcer rat models to determine which is the most suitable for experimental use.Methods 18 male SD rats were randomly divided into control(n=6),model A(n=6)and model B(n=6)groups.In the control group,iodophor treatment was given after hair removal at the simulated modeling site.In model group A,longitudinal compression was performed by simple deep-tissue foreign body implantation.In model group B,transverse compression was performed via the magnet compression method.The times required to complete the process and for each stage of pressure ulcer model establishment in each group were recorded.The general condition of the rats was observed,and the modeling rate,mortality rate,and infection rate were compared.Results By naked eye,we observed that the model A and model B groups gradually developed redness and swelling,ulceration,bleeding,exudation,and necrosis.Comparison of the whole time to produce pressure uler between model A and model B groups:the difference between the two groups was statitically significant(P＜0.05).Comparison of the time to produce pressure injury between Model A and Model B:The difference between the two groups at stage Ⅰ was not statistically significant(P＞0.05);the difference between the two groups at stage Ⅱ was statistically significant(P＜0 05);the difference between the two groups at stage Ⅲ was statistically significant(P＜0 05);the difference between the two groups at stage Ⅳ was statistically significant(P＜0 05).The mental and sports scores of the rats in the control group were significantly different from those in the model A and model B groups(P＜0.05).The general state of rats in the model group A was significantly different from that in the model B group,and coat color was dimer and activity decreased in the model group A.The modelling rate of rats in both model A and model B groups was 100％.The mortality and infection rates of the model group A were higher than those of the model group B,which were 33.34％and 16.70％,respectively.Conclusions Successful preparation of a four-stage model of pressure ulers in both modalities.The two method have both commonalities and distinct characteristics.The magnet compression method required less time,the rats were generally in good condition,and the mortality and infection rates were low;thus it is suitable for short-term intervention research.The simple deep-tissue foreign body implantation method took longer,required rats to have a certain level of tolerance,had high infection and mortality rates,and is more suitable for use for long-term observations of pressure ulcers.

Objective To explore the application effect of bedside sitting activity combined with staged breathing training on patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD)complicated with respiratory failure,and to provide references for nurses to carry out pulmonary rehabilitation therapy.Methods A total of 120 COPD patients with respiratory failure in a tertiary A hospital of Beijing City were selected from May 2021 to December 2023 as the study subjects.The study subjects were divided into an experimental group and a control group(each n=60)by the random number table method.The experimental group received bedside sitting activity combined with staged breathing training on the basis of routine lung rehabilitation nursing,while the control group was given routine lung rehabilitation nursing.After intervention,the blood gas indicators,lung function respiratory capacity,exercise capacity,and quality of life were compared between groups after intervention.Results After intervention,the arterial partial blood oxygen saturation and arterial partial pressure of oxygen in the experimental group were better than those in the control group(P＜0.05).The experimental group had higher maximum ventilatory volume,forced expiratory volume in the first second and vital capacity than those in the control group(P＜0.05).After intervention,the lung function respiratory capacity and quality of life in the experimental group were better compared with those in the control group(P＜0.05).The exercise capacity of the experimental group was higher than that in the control group(P＜0.05).Conclusion Bedside sitting activity combined with staged breathing training can effectively improve lung function and enhance exercise tolerance and quality of life in patients with COPD and respiratory failure.

In this study, we explored the neural mechanism underlying impaired stereopsis and possible functional plasticity after strabismus surgery. We enrolled 18 stereo-deficient patients with intermittent exotropia before and after surgery, along with 18 healthy controls. Functional magnetic resonance imaging data were collected when participants viewed three-dimensional stimuli. Compared with controls, preoperative patients showed hypoactivation in higher-level dorsal (visual and parietal) areas and ventral visual areas. Pre- and postoperative activation did not significantly differ in patients overall; patients with improved stereopsis showed stronger postoperative activation than preoperative activation in the right V3A and left intraparietal sulcus. Worse stereopsis and fusional control were correlated with preoperative hypoactivation, suggesting that cortical deficits along the two streams might reflect impaired stereopsis in intermittent exotropia. The correlation between improved stereopsis and activation in the right V3A after surgery indicates that functional plasticity may underlie the improvement of stereopsis. Thus, additional postoperative strategies are needed to promote functional plasticity and enhance the recovery of stereopsis.

Objective:To measure the change in Young′s modulus of the biceps brachii during passive stretching and to assess the potential of shear wave elastography (SWE) as an auxiliary quantitative technique for assessing muscle tone.Methods:Forty-nine stroke survivors and 30 healthy subjects were evaluated using the modified Ashworth scale (MAS). According to their MAS scores they were divided into a healthy group, a healthy elbow group, an MAS class-0 group, an MAS class-1 group, an MAS class-1 + group and an MAS class-2 group. During passive extension of the subjects′ elbows, shear wave elastography was used to image the biceps brachii. Six points of the elbow were selected to record the instantaneous Young′s modulus ( EX) and calculate its change during the movement (Δ E). Those data were correlated with the MAS scores and compared among the groups. Results:Persons with higher MAS scores tended to have a higher Young′s modulus of the biceps brachii, and the modulus was likely to increase more with increases in the angle of elbow extension. From half of the range of motion to full extension there were significant differences in EX and Δ E between MAS class-0 and class-1 groups, as well as between the class-0 and class-1 + groups. There were, however, no significant differences between MAS class-1 and MAS class-1 + . Conclusions:MAS scores can usefully predict biceps brachii stiffness during passive elbow flexion. Shear wave elastography can quantify that stiffness and also muscle tone.

Objective:To explore the application effects of the mode of "Multidisciplinary integration, Doctors & patients co-teaching, Simulated practice" in the teaching of spinal surgery.Methods:A total of 64 eight-year program clinical medical students who practiced in Peking Union Medical College Hospital in 2021 were taken as research objects and randomly divided into experimental group ( n=33) and control group ( n=31). The experimental group received the new teaching mode of "Multidisciplinary integration, Doctors & patients co-teaching, Simulated practice", and the control group received regular teaching mode. At the end of teaching, the teaching effects were evaluated from several aspects, including the scores of theoretical examinations, anatomical marks identification tests, and anonymous questionnaires. SPSS 22.0 software was used for paired t-test and two independent-samples t-test. Results:The theoretical test scores [(51.25±6.99) points] and anatomical structure identification scores [(37.56±1.83) points] of the experimental group were higher than those of the control group [(42.46±6.13) points and (30.37±3.46) points], and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.001). The effective recovery rate of the questionnaire was 100%. The results of the questionnaire showed that the experimental group was significantly higher than the control group in terms of teaching attractiveness, attention, learning interest, learning efficiency, anatomical identification ability, problem-finding and problem-solving ability and overall teaching method satisfaction ( P<0.05). Conclusion:The teaching mode of "Multidisciplinary integration, Doctors & patients co-teaching, Simulated practice" can effectively improve students' theoretical knowledge, learning interest, learning efficiency, operation proficiency and problem-finding and problem-solving ability, which is worth promoting.

Objective:To observe the clearance strategies of hemiplegic stroke survivors with foot drop.Methods:Thirty hemiplegic stroke survivors with foot drop formed the observation group and 30 healthy counterparts constituted the control group. A three-dimensional motion capture system was used to observe and compare the minimum toe clearance (MTC) and its variability between the two groups to draw the motion trajectory of the toe in the swing phase of their gaits. The gait parameters were correlated with the toe clearance.Results:The average MTC of the observation group subjects on both the hemiplegic and non-hemiplegic side (12.01±3.36 and 22.38±5.51mm) was significantly smaller than the control group′s averages. The variability of their MTCs on both sides was also significantly greater. Clearance on the hemiplegic side was significantly less and its variability was significantly greater. Among the observation group, MTC on the hemiplegic side was positively correlated with walking speed, step length, swing phase percentage, maximum angle of hip extension, maximum angle of knee flexion, maximum angle of ankle dorsiflexion, and the range of motion of the knee and ankle joints.Conclusions:Hemiplegic stroke survivors with foot drop walk unstably with little toe clearance. It is necessary to intervene at the hip, knee and ankle to improve their obstacle clearance.
