Objective:To investigate the clinical demand for subcutaneous immunotherapy (SCIT) with pet allergens and explore the sensitization characteristics of patients undergoing pet SCIT.Methods:A cross-sectional retrospective analysis was conducted on patients diagnosed with pet allergies and treated with pet allergen SCIT in our outpatient clinic from January 2019 to December 2023. Patients were categorized into three groups based on the type of SCIT received: single-cat SCIT group, single-dog SCIT group, and combined cat-dog SCIT group.Results:A total of 931 patients were included, the age range was 5-65 years (median age of 30 years), with 283 male and 648 female. Among them, 67.7%( n=630) received single-cat SCIT, 10.9% ( n=102)received single-dog SCIT, and 21.4% ( n=199) received combined cat-dog SCIT. The number of patients receiving pet allergen SCIT increased annually. Patients in the single-dog SCIT group were significantly older than those in the other two groups ( H=41.329, P<0.001) and had a lower prevalence of allergic rhinitis (91.2% vs. 96.5% and 98.5%; χ2=10.400, P=0.006). In the combined cat-dog SCIT group, the allergy rate to mold allergens was significantly higher than in the single-cat SCIT group (12.6% vs. 4.9%, χ2=13.965, P=0.001). In the single-dog SCIT group, the allergy rate to spring pollen allergens was significantly higher than in the other two groups ( χ2=15.731, P<0.001), and the allergy rate to autumn pollen allergens was significantly higher than in the single-cat SCIT group ( χ2=13.459, P=0.001). There was no significant difference in the dust mite allergy rate among the three groups( χ2=4.117, P=0.129). In the single-dog SCIT group, patients with asthma were significantly older than those without asthma (41.2 vs. 35.2 years old, t=-2.073, P=0.041). In both the single-cat and single-dog SCIT groups, the proportion of allergic rhinitis in the asthma group(91.2%,78.3%) was significantly lower than that in the non-asthma group(97.4%,94.9%) ( χ2=8.863,6.158; P=0.008,0.026). In the single-cat SCIT group, non-asthmatic patients were significantly more likely to receive SCIT combined with spring pollen allergens compared to asthmatic patients (23.9% vs. 11.0%, χ2=7.586, P=0.006). Conclusions:The demand for pet allergen SCIT has steadily increased over the years, with a predominance of female patients. Sensitization profiles varied among patients receiving SCIT for different pet allergens. This study comprehensively elucidates the clinical demand and sensitization characteristics of patients undergoing pet allergen SCIT, providing valuable reference data for clinical diagnosis and treatment.

Objective:To explore the clinical manifestations and genetic basis for a Chinese pedigree affected with atypical Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 1 A (CMT1A).Methods:A patient admitted to the Department of Neurology, Xijing Hospital Affiliated to Air Force Medical University in June 2022 was selected as the study subject. Clinical data of the patient was collected, and 17 family members from four generations of this pedigree were traced based on pes arcuatus and atypical clinical symptoms. Neuroultrasound and genetic testing were carried out on available family members. Whole exome sequencing and multiple ligation-dependent probe amplification assay were carried out for the proband and some of the affected members of the pedigree.Results:The proband, a 15-year-old male, had presented with paroxystic limb pain with weakness, accompanied by pes cavus and hypertrophy of gastrocnemius muscles, without stork leg sign caused by muscles atrophy in the distal lower extremities. MRI has revealed no sign of fat infiltration in the muscles of both legs. Nerve conduction examination had indicated damages of the sensory and motor nerves of the limbs, mainly with demyelinating changes. Seven members of the pedigree had pes arcuatus, including 5 presenting with paroxysmal neuropathic pain and myasthenia in the limbs, whilst 2 were without any clinical symptoms. Neurosonography of the proband, his brother, father and aunt showed thickened peripheral nerves of the extremities with unclear bundle structure. Genetic analysis revealed a large repeat encompassing exons 1 to 5 of the PMP22 gene and flanking regions (chr17: 15133768_15502298) in some of the affected members, which was predicted to be pathogenic. Conclusion:The duplication of PMP22 gene was considered to be pathogenic for this CMT1A pedigree.

Recent clinical studies have shown that mutation of phosphatase and tensin homolog deleted on chromosome 10 (PTEN) gene in cancer cells may be associated with immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (TME) and poor response to immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) therapy. Therefore, efficiently restoring PTEN gene expression in cancer cells is critical to improving the responding rate to ICB therapy. Here, we screened an adeno-associated virus (AAV) capsid for efficient PTEN gene delivery into B16F10 tumor cells. We demonstrated that intratumorally injected AAV6-PTEN successfully restored the tumor cell PTEN gene expression and effectively inhibited tumor progression by inducing tumor cell immunogenic cell death (ICD) and increasing immune cell infiltration. Moreover, we developed an anti-PD-1 loaded phospholipid-based phase separation gel (PPSG), which formed an in situ depot and sustainably release anti-PD-1 drugs within 42 days in vivo. In order to effectively inhibit the recurrence of melanoma, we further applied a triple therapy based on AAV6-PTEN, PPSG^@anti-PD-1 and CpG, and showed that this triple therapy strategy enhanced the synergistic antitumor immune effect and also induced robust immune memory, which completely rejected tumor recurrence. We anticipate that this triple therapy could be used as a new tumor combination therapy with stronger immune activation capacity and tumor inhibition efficacy.

Objective:To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of sofosbuvir/velpatasvir (SOF/VEL) with or without ribavirin in the treatment of patients diagnosed with chronic hepatitis C (CHC) and chronic kidney disease (CKD).Methods:From June 2018 to May 2022, a total of 75 patients with CHC and CKD, and treated with SOF/VEL±ribavirin at the Kunming Third People′s Hospital were enrolled in this study. The basic information of patients were collected. Assessments of renal function, liver function, virologic response rate and adverse events were conducted at baseline, four weeks and 12 weeks of treatment and 12 weeks after treatment withdrawal. Wilcoxon rank sum test and Kruskal-Wallis rank sum test were used for statistical analysis.Results:Among the 75 patients, 51 cases(68.0%) were classified as CKD stage 2, 12 cases (16.0%) as CKD stage 3, four cases (5.3%) as CKD stage 4, eight cases (10.7%) as CKD stage 5. Additionally, 26 cases (34.7%) were classified as HCV type 3a, while 37 cases (49.3%) were classified as type 3b. Among the patients, 51 cases (68.0%) had cirrhosis, including 15(20.0%) compensated cirrhosis and 36(48.0%) decompensated cirrhosis. Twelve weeks after treatment withdrawal, there was a statistically significant improvement in the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) compared to baseline (81.76(60.94, 94.34) mL/(min·1.73 m 2) vs 70.99(52.86, 82.38) mL/(min·1.73 m 2), Z=8.12, P=0.040). From baseline to 12 weeks after treatment withdrawal, eGFR of patients with CKD stage 2 and stage 3 were both gradually increased, with statistical significance ( H=8.91 and 8.03, respectively, both P<0.05). For CKD stage 2 patients, eGFR increased from 78.82(70.98, 84.80) mL/(min·1.73 m 2) to 86.94 (75.91, 96.01) mL/(min·1.73 m 2), while CKD stage 3 patients had an increased from 51.24 (45.92, 53.37) mL/(min·1.73 m 2) to 64.58 (44.54, 74.34) mL/(min·1.73 m 2). Renal function was improved to CKD stage 1 in 21 patients (28.0%). Compared to baseline, CKD stage 2 patients exhibited a decrease of aspartate aminotransferase to platelet ratio index 12 weeks after treatment withdrawal, and alanine aminotransferase and aspartate aminotransferase levels were also significantly improved with statistical significance ( Z=8.03, 21.57 and 43.74, respectively, all P<0.05). The rate of sustained virological response (SVR)12 at 12 weeks after treatment withdrawal was 98.7%(74/75). Among these cases, 51 patients in CKD stage 2, 11 patients in CKD stage 3, 12 patients in CKD stage 4 and stage 5 reached SVR12. Adverse events occurred in 32 patients (42.7%), including 18 cases of mild hemolytic anemia, four cases of skin itching, three cases of rash, two cases of chest tightness, and five cases of fatigue. Conclusions:SOF/VEL with or without ribavirin for the treatment of patients with CHC and CKD has good effectiveness and safety. The renal function, liver function and liver fibrosis degree have been improved after antiviral treatment.

We used the epidemic data of COVID-19 published on the official website of the municipal health commission in Anhui province. We mapped the spatiotemporal changes of confirmed cases, fitted the epidemic situation by the population growth curve at different stages and took statistical description and analysis of the epidemic situation in Anhui province. It was found that the cumulative incidence of COVID-19 was 156/100 000 by February 18, 2020 and the trend of COVID-19 epidemic declined after February 7, changing from J curve to S curve. The actual number of new cases began to decrease from February 2 to February 4 due to the time of case report and actual onset delayed by 3 to 5 days.
