Objective:To assess the value of chromosomal microarray analysis (CMA) for the detection of low-level mosaicisms in amniotic fluid samples, and to retrospectively analyze the rare cases of mosaicisms.Methods:Chromosomal karyotype of the fetus was determined by G-banding analysis of cultured amniotic fluid cells. CMA was used to detect copy number variation of fetal chromosomes, and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) was used to determine the proportion of fetal chromosomal mosaicisms in uncultured amniotic fluid cells. Results:Among 825 prenatal samples, 4 cases of true fetal mosaicisms were detected, which yielded an incidence of 0.48%. Two cases were sex chromosomal mosaicisms, and two were autosomal mosaicisms, which involved chromosomes 8 and 9, respectively. All cases were verified by G-banding analysis of cultured amniotic fluid cells, CMA, and/or FISH.Conclusion:CMA has a great value for detecting low-level mosaicisms in amniotic fluid samples, though the positive results need to be verified by other techniques and should be interpreted with caution. The review of rare cases can provide a basis for prenatal genetic counseling.

Objective:To investigate the effect of peripheral white blood cell(WBC) count on adverse pregnancy outcomes.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on pregnant women who delivered at Minhang Hospital affiliated with Fudan University between January 2013 and June 2020. Demographic data, WBC counts, and diagnostic information on gestational diabetes mellitus(GDM), gestational hypertension, and preeclampsia/eclampsia were extracted from electronic medical records. Logistic regression models were used to evaluate the association between WBC counts in the first(WBC-1) and second trimesters(WBC-2) and metabolically related pregnancy outcomes.Results:A total of 24 143 pregnant women were included, with a mean age of(29.1±4.9) years and a mean pre-pregnancy body mass index(BMI) of(21.1±2.8) kg/m 2. The mean WBC counts in the first and second trimesters were 8.1×10 9/L and 8.9×10 9/L, respectively. The incidence rates of GDM, gestational hypertension, and preeclampsia/eclampsia were 5.6%, 4.8%, and 1.8%, respectively. After adjusting for relevant confounders, a core standard deviation( s) increase in WBC-1 was associated with a 6%, 18%, and 14% increased risk of GDM, gestational hypertension, and preeclampsia/eclampsia, respectively( P<0.001). Similarly, a one s increase in WBC-2 was associated with a 10% increased risk for all three adverse outcomes( P<0.001). Conclusion:Elevated peripheral WBC levels in the first and second trimesters are independently associated with increased risk of adverse pregnancy outcomes, independent of traditional risk factors.

The rabies virus(RABV)that causes rabies mainly attacks the peripheral and central nervous systems.In the later stages of infection,it is scattered in the salivary glands and transmit-ted to other susceptible animals through infectious saliva.To study dispersion of the RABV in the three pairs of salivary gland tissues,the street strain PB4 of the RABV was inoculated into 21-day-old female mice through the hind limb muscles.During the moribund stage of the mice,the sublin-gual gland,submandibular gland and parotid gland were collected,respectively.The TCID50 titer of RABV in the three kinds of glands of the mice and the copy number of the RABV N gene were de-tected,and RABV in different salivary glands was observed by immunofluorescence.The results showed that PB4 was dispersed in all three kinds of salivary glands of the mice,with the largest a-mounts in the parotid gland,followed by the submandibular gland,and the lowest amount in the sublingual gland.Three-month-old dogs were inoculated with PB4 through the cranial cavity,and saliva were collected every 12 h after inoculation.The saliva samples were detected by TCID50 and RT-qPCR.And during the moribund stage of the dogs when the disease occurred,the three pairs of salivary glands were collected.Through the determination of the TCID50 titer,RT-qPCR and immu-nofluorescence detection,it was demonstrated that among the three different salivary glands of the dogs,the largest amount of PB4 was found in the parotid gland and the lowest in the sublingual gland.Our results in mice and dogs clearly proved that the parotid gland was consistently found to exhibit the highest content of street RABV among the three major salivary glands,which could en-rich experimental data for analyzing the dispersion of RABV in the salivary glands and interpreta-tion of the intermittent secretion of saliva in clinically rabid dogs.

AIM:This study aims to investigate the therapeutic effects of Xiaozhen Fang(XZF)on epidermal growth factor receptor(EGFR)inhibitor,erlotinib-induced skin toxicity in mice,with a focus on the underlying functional mechanisms.METHODS:A mouse model of skin toxicity was established and divided into three groups(n=5 per group):blank,erlotinib(150 mg/kg),and erlotinib(150 mg/kg)combined with XZF(45 g/kg)groups.Skin toxicity se-verity and body weight were evaluated.Western blot was performed to detect protein levels of gasdermin D(GSDMD),caspase-1,and interleukin-1β(IL-1β)in skin tissue.Immunofluorescence was employed to analyze gasdermin E,IL-1β,caspase-1,and nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-like receptor protein 3(NLRP3)expression in skin tissue.In vitro,HacaT cells were cultured and treated with erlotinib followed by different concentrations of XZF-containing se-rum.Cell viability was assessed by MTT assay.Cell ultrastructure was observed by transmission electron microscopy,and p53-binding protein 1(53BP1)expression was analyzed by immunofluorescence staining.RESULTS:The XZF signifi-cantly alleviated erlotinib-induced skin toxicity in mouse model,as evidenced by reduced rash incidence,alleviated limb swelling,and increased body weight(P<0.05).Expression of Gasdermins,IL-1β,caspase-1,and NLRP3 was distinctly down-regulated in dorsal skin tissue(P<0.05 or P<0.01).In vitro,XZF-containing serum markedly suppressed pyropto-sis in HacaT cells(P<0.01),preserved cell membrane integrity,and significantly reduced 53BP1 fluorescence intensity(P<0.01).CONCLUSION:The XZF mitigates EGFR inhibitor,erlotinib-induced skin toxicity in mice,potentially by regulating pyroptosis through the NLRP3/caspase-1/GSDMD signaling pathway.This mechanism exerts a cytoprotective ef-fect and alleviates erlotinib-induced skin toxicity.

Objective:To analyze the epidemiological characteristics of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infections in hospitalized children under five years of age with acute respiratory infections in Qingdao, China, from 2023 to 2025.Methods:This cross-sectional study enrolled children under five years hospitalized with acute respiratory infections between May 1, 2023, and June 30, 2025. Nucleic acid testing was performed for six respiratory pathogens. Participants were stratified into seven age groups: 0 to 28 days, 29 days to <6 months, 6 to <12 months, 1 to <2 years, 2 to <3 years, 3 to <4 years, and 4 to <5 years. Intergroup differences were analyzed using Chi-square tests, with Bonferroni correction (adjusted α=0.016 7) for peak rate comparisons across three epidemic seasons. Results:Among 16 613 children, RSV was detected in 3 280 cases (19.74%), representing the highest pathogen detection rate. Infants under one year accounted for 56.37% (1 849/3 280) of RSV-positive cases, with significantly higher positivity rates in the 0-28 days [25.22% (286/1 134)], 29 days to <6 months [26.66% (1 072/4 021)], and 6 to <12 months [24.92% (491/1 970)] groups compared to other age groups ( χ2=314.20, P<0.001). Co-infections occurred in 13.66% (448/3 280) of RSV-positive cases, primarily with rhinovirus (6.13%, 201/ 3 280), followed by adenovirus and Mycoplasma pneumoniae (3.35% each, 110/3 280). Epidemiological surveillance revealed an off-season outbreak from May to July 2023 (duration ≥14 weeks, peak positivity rate 71.15%), while both 2024 (20 weeks, peak 52.55%) and 2025 (24 weeks, peak 46.49%) exhibited typical winter-spring seasonal patterns. The 2023 peak rate significantly exceeded those of subsequent years (all pairwise P<0.016 7). Conclusion:RSV is the predominant pathogen among hospitalized children under five years with acute respiratory infections in Qingdao, with infants under one year representing the highest-risk population. The epidemiological pattern demonstrates a transition from post-pandemic off-season outbreaks to prolonged winter-spring epidemics, highlighting the need for continued surveillance and targeted prevention strategies.

OBJECTIVE:
To investigate the midterm clinical efficacy of medial patellofemoral complex (MPFC) reconstruction for recurrent patellar dislocation with high-grade trochlear dysplasia.
METHODS:
A retrospective analysis was carried out among adult patients who underwent arthroscopically assisted MPFC reconstruction between January 2014 and December 2020. Dejour classification was evaluated to grade trochlear dysplasia; tibial tubercle-trochlear groove (TT-TG) distance and Insall-Salvati index were measured. Preoperative and postoperative patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) were compared, including International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC) score, Kujala score, Lysholm score and Tegner score. Information regarding returning-to-sport rate, re-instability events and complications was collected. Patellar tilt (PT), lateral patellar displacement (LPD) and bisect offset (BSO) ratio were measured based on axial computed tomography before and after surgery to assess the patellofemoral congruence.
RESULTS:
A total of 46 MPFC reconstructions in 43 patients were enrolled, including 16 male and 27 female. Mean age at surgery was (22.2±7.6) years (range: 14-44 years). Mean follow-up was (49.9±22.6) months (range: 18-102 months). The percentages of Dejour B, C and D dysplasia were 37.0% (17/46), 43.5% (20/46), and 19.6% (9/46), respectively. Mean Insall-Salvati index was 1.2±0.2 (range: 0.85-1.44), and mean TT-TG distance was (19.6±3.5) mm (range: 10.6-28.7 mm). At latest follow-up, there were significant improvements in all PROMs (P < 0.001): IKDC score, from 56.3±15.1 to 86.2±8.1; Kujala score, from 58.9±15.6 to 92.6±5.4; Lysholm score, from 63.7±15.0 to 94.0±5.7; Tegner score, from 3.1±1.4 to 4.7±1.4, and there were no significant differences in the improvements of the scores between the patients with Dejour B, C and D dysplasia. Overall, ninety percent of the patients returned to their preoperative sports level. One patient reported a postoperative subluxation, while no cases of infection, limited range of motion or patella fracture were observed. PT, LPD and BSO ratio were all significant altered (P < 0.001) after MPFC reconstruction.
CONCLUSION
Arthroscopically assisted MPFC reconstruction yielded satisfactory midterm clinical results for recurrent patellar dislocation with high-grade trochlear dysplasia. No significant differences of improvements in knee function were observed among the three types of high-grade trochlear dysplasia.
