Objective:A recombinant adenoviral vector vaccine based on non-replicating human adenovirus type 5 (Ad5), encoding the conserved domain of respiratory syncytial virus G protein (RSV-G) was constructed. The immunogenicity and protective efficacy of this vaccine were subsequently evaluated in mice.Methods:The recombinant Ad5 vector plasmid (Ad5-Gbcc-Gacc) was constructed by inserted conserved domains of RSV A and RSV B. The recombinant adenovirus Ad5-Gbcc-Gacc was rescued in HEK293A cells. The genome of virus Ad5-Gbcc-Gacc was identified by multi-enzyme digestion, and the expression of Ad5-Gbcc-Gacc was verified by Western blot. Recombinant adenovirus was used to immunize BALB/c mice via intramuscular injection with signal dose, and then challenged with RSV Long strain at week 6. The levels of G specific IgG and antibody subtypes in serum were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, the level of neutralizing antibodies was determined by micro-neutralization assay. After challenge, the mice′s weight was recorded daily, the copies of RSV virus in the lung and nasal tissues were detected. Pathological changes in lung tissue were also examined.Results:Western blot and multi-enzyme digestion identification confirmed the successful rescue of the recombinant adenovirus. Ad5-Gbcc-Gacc elicit high titers of specific IgG, robust neutralizing antibodies, and a balanced Th1/Th2 immune response in mice. In comparison to unimmunized controls, mice immunized with Ad5-Gbcc-Gacc reduced the viral copies in both lung and nasal tissue, and exhibited only minimal pathological damage of lung tissue following RSV challenge. In conclusion, Ad5-Gbcc-Gacc induced robust immunogenicity and offers protective effects against RSV infection in murine models.Conclusions:Ad5-Gbcc-Gacc induce robust immunogenicity and can protect mice from RSV challenge, which lays a foundation for further development of RSV vaccine based on G protein.

Objective To analyze the clinical characteristics and related to risk factors of late-life depression patients with venous thromboembolism in the elderly ward.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on 143 hospitalized depression patients(aged≥60 years)including 65 depression patients with VTE(VTE group)and 78 depression patients without VTE(control group)in the elderly ward of Beijing Anding Hospital from January 2023 to September 2023.The clinic and laboratory data was collected such as general demographic information,relevant clinical data,VTE history,personal history,thyroid function,hormone levels,blood lipid levels and D-dimer to analyze and compare the clinical characteristics of two group patients,and Logistic regression was used to analyze the related risk factors of VTE in patients with depression.Results Compared with control group,patients in the VTE group were older[(70.94±5.88)years vs.(68.04±4.92)years,P<0.05],had a higher total HAMD score(26.35±9.28 vs.23.19±5.94,P<0.05),a higher proportion of a history of VTE[13 cases(20.0%)vs.6 cases(7.7%),P<0.05],a higher proportion of bedridden for more than 72 hours[42 cases(64.6%)vs.31 cases(39.7%),P<0.05],lower HDL-C levels[(1.27±0.27)mmol/L vs.(1.39±0.28)mmol/L,P<0.05],and higher levels of D-dimer[1.91(0.82,3.51)mg/L FEU vs.0.48(0.25,0.80)mg/L FEU,P<0.05].Logistic regression analysis showed that total HAMD scores(OR=1.077,P=0.018),history of VTE(OR=4.339,P=0.023),bedridden for more than 72 hours(OR=2.449,P=0.044),and D-dimer level(OR=2.404,P<0.001)were risk factors for hospitalized late-life depression patients with VTE in the elderly ward.Conclusions Depression patients with VTE in the elderly ward have several clinical characteristics including older age,more severe depressive symptoms,lower HDL-C levels,higher D-dimer levels,and higher proportion of a history of VTE and bedridden for more than 72 hours.Depressive symptoms,a history of VTE,bedridden for more than 72 hours,and D-dimer levels may be risk factors for late-life depression patients with VTE in the elderly ward.

The article summarized professor SUN Weizheng's clinical experience in treating multiple myeloma using the clearing-releasing therapy. It is believed that the mechanism of multiple myeloma is kidney essence insufficiency， pathogenic toxin erosion， and blinding of phlegm and stasis. The treatment should consider both the deficiency and the excess， and the root and branch. Thus， the clearing-releasing therapy is proposed. “Clearing” refers to the approach of supplementing deficiency and reinforcing health while advocating the use of clearing and supplementing products to replenish without generating additional pathogenic factors. Additionally， products that clear heat， resolve toxins， dispel stasis， dissolve phlegm， and eliminate masses is suggested to benefit for clearing away pathogenic toxins. “Releasing” means to replenish the normal yang qi with sweet-warm and acrid-warm products on the basis of “clearing” method， and to release the cold pathogen constraint in the muscles and bones. Based on the principle of clearing and releasing， the selfmade Jishi Beverage （济世饮） is formulated to supplement the kidney and secure essence， dispel phlegm and dissolve stasis， resolve toxins and dissipate masses. The prescription can be modified according to syndrome differentiation. It is also advocated to use multiple methods and pay attention to external therapies such as enema for relieving constipation and draining heat， and to combine acupuncture and medicine to relieve pain.

A total of 19 667 specimens of hospitalized children with diarrhea under 5 years old were collected from all monitoring provinces, including 5 437 RVA positive specimens. EpiData 3.0 software and Excel 2010 were used for data collection and collation of viral diarrhea monitoring network, and SPSS 26.0 software was used for data analysis.Results:200 G2P[4] RVA specimens were detected from 5 437 RVA positive specimens, and the constituent rate of G2P[4] RVA was 3.68% (200/5 437) There is a statistically significant difference in the constituent ratio of G2P [4] RVA among RVA positive children in different years ( χ2=38.35, P<0.001), months ( χ2=62.69, P<0.001), and ages ( χ2=9.53, P=0.049). There is a statistically significant difference in the constituent ratio of G2P [4] RVA between rural and urban RVA positive children ( χ2=4.01, P=0.045). Compared with non-G2P[4] RVA hospitalized children, G2P[4] RVA hospitalized children had less proportion of respiratory tract infection ( χ2=6.07, P=0.014), G2P[4] RVA hospitalized children had higher proportion of fever ( χ2=6.68, P=0.010), there was no significant differences in diarrhea ( χ2=0.88, P=0.643), vomiting ( χ2=0.23, P=0.629), extraintestinal neurological symptoms ( χ2=0.18, P=0.668), and no significant difference in rash, sepsis and other complications ( χ2=0.45, P=0.504). Conclusions:The epidemic trend of G2P[4] RVA in China gradually decreased from 2016 to 2019, and the autumn and winter were G2P[4] RVA seasonal peaks. And the peak age was 24-36 months. There were a higher infection risk in rural areas, and fever was more than other genotypes.

Objective:To express and purify VP7 protein of group A rotavirus (RVA) G1P[8]. The VP7 polyclonal antibody was prepared and its function was evaluated.Methods:The G1 VP7 protein was expressed by baculovirus expression system and purified by affinity chromatography. Polyclonal antibody against G1 VP7 was obtained by immunizing rabbits with G1 VP7 protein.

In addition, double sandwich ELISA showed that VP7 polyclonal antibody could be used to detect rotavirus in clinical samples.Conclusions:The soluble G1 VP7 protein was successfully expressed and VP7 antibody was obtained. The G1 VP7 polyclonal antibody could bind to a variety of G-type rotaviruses, which lays a foundation for the establishment of detection method of different G type rotaviruses.

Objective:To understand the epidemiological characteristics of group A rotavirus (RVA) infection in hospitalized children under 5 years of age with diarrhea in 2019, and to provide reference for the surveillance of RVA.Methods:Stool samples and clinical information of hospitalized children under 5 years of age with diarrhea were collected from sentinel hospitals in 20 provinces in 2019. RVA nucleic acid detection and genotyping were performed according to the rotavirus detection method in the National Viral Diarrhea Surveillance Program.Results:A total of 5 395 viral diarrhea samples were collected, 5 038 were tested, and 1 247 diarrhea samples showed RVA positive results (1 247/5 038, 24.75%). The positive rate of RVA in Fujian province was the lowest (30/319, 9.40%), and the positive rate of RVA was the highest in Henan province (182/338, 53.85%). The positive rate of RVA in male and female children was 25.24%(762/3 019)and 24.02%(485/ 2 019), respectively. There was no significant gender distribution of RVA infection ( χ2 = 0.96, P=0.326). Children aged 12 to 17 months were mainly susceptible to RVA (342/1 033, 33.11%), and the positive rate of RVA in children aged 48 to 59 months was lower (35/227, 15.42%). RVA infection showed significant age distribution characteristics ( χ2 = 86.78, P<0.001). RVA infection had significant difference between urban and rural areas ( χ2 = 20.92, P<0.001) and seasonal characteristics ( χ2 =411.42, P<0.001). RVA genotyping showed that G9P[8] type (994/1 122, 88.59%) was the dominant epidemic strain. Conclusions:In 2019, the main genotype of RVA infection in hospitalized children under 5 years of age with diarrhea was G9P[8], and RVA infection had significant age, region and season characteristics.

Objective:To investigate the role of HIV-1 negative regulator (Nef) in HIV-1 neuropathogenicity.Methods:Five different HIV-1 nef genes were obtained from the central nervous system (CNS) and peripheral regions (basal ganglia, frontal cortex, meninges, temporal cortex and spleen) of a patient with HIV-1-associated dementia (HAD). The recombinant pcDNA3.1- nef eukaryotic expression vectors were constructed by connecting them with pcDNA3.1 vector and transfected into human glioma cell line U87 respectively. The expression of Nef protein was detected by immunohistochemistry and Western blotting at 22ndhour, 27 th hour, 32nd hour, 37th and 42nd hour after transfection. The result were analyzed quantitatively by JEDA801D and JD-801 software. The supernatant of U87 cells was collected every 5 hours from 27th hour to 62nd hour after transfection. The levels of TNF-α and IL-1 β in the supernatant were determined by ELISA, and the dynamic expression of the two cytokines was analyzed. Results:Five recombinant pcDNA3.1- nef eukaryotic expression vectors of nef genes from different tissues of an HAD patient were successfully constructed and transfected into U87 cells. The result of immunohistochemistry showed that Nef protein began to express at 42nd hour after transfection, which was further confirmed by Western blot. The result of ELISA showed that the levels of cytokines in the supernatant of each group increased gradually with time from 22ed hour to 37th hour after transfection, but there was no significant difference among the groups (TNF-α: F=0.445, P=0.837; F=0.579, P=0.742; F=0.617, P=0.714; F=2.728, P=0.057. IL-1β: F=2.656, P=0.062; F=0.485, P=0.809; F=0.165, P=0.982; F=2.463, P=0.093); The levels of TNF-α and IL-1 β in the experimental group were significantly higher than those in the control group from the 42nd hour ( P<0.05); after 42nd hour, the levels of cytokines in each group gradually decreased, and the levels of TNF-α and IL-1 β remained stable from the 57th hour to the 62nd hour, while the levels of TNF-α and IL-1 β in the experimental group were higher than those in the control group from the 42nd hour to the 62nd hour, the difference was still statistically significant (TNF-α: F=241.310, P<0.001; F=242.638, P<0.001; F=250.114, P<0.001; F=143.877, P<0.001; F=146.172, P<0.001. IL-1β: F=251.578, P<0.001; F=188.816, P<0.001; F=276.240, P<0.001; F=238.136, P<0.001; F=163.361, P<0.001), and there was no significant difference among the experimental groups ( P>0.05). Conclusions:HIV-1 Nef protein can induce and enhance the secretion of TNF-α and IL-1 β in U87 cells. However, the amino acid variation of HIV-1 Nef protein from different sources in an HAD patient had no effect on the secretion of TNF-α and IL-1 β.

Objective: To summarize the clinical manifestation and treatment of temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disc ossification, providing reference for clinical diagnosis and treatment of TMJ disc ossification. Methods: From January 2006 to January 2018, 4 patients with TMJ disc ossification (2 males and 2 females, aged 20-55 years with an average age of 35.5 years) which were admitted to the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Shenzhen Second People′s Hospital were analyzed retrospectively. Ossification of TMJ disc was found in 4 cases during TMJ surgery. Two cases underwent partial ossification resection plus disc reduction and anchorage, and two cases underwent discectomy plus temporalis myofascial flap replacement. The causes, clinical manifestations and surgical effects of TMJ disc ossification were analyzed by comparing the maximal interincisal opening, visual analogue scale (VAS) score and MRI imaging indexes before and after operation. Results: The history of anterior disc displacement of TMJ in 4 patients was long (average 11.5 years). In clinic, TMJ disc ossification was characterized by TMJ pain and limitation of mouth opening. The maximal interincisal opening was (32.1±6.1) mm and the VAS score was (7.3±0.4) before operation. MRI showed that the displaced discs of the affected sides were displaced and the condyle bones were worn. During the operation, ossification of TMJ discs was found yellow and hard, and the original elasticity was lost. Pathologic findings showed that the TMJ disc cartilage were ossified to osteoid tissue. Under the microscope, bone cells scattered around the bone cells and red trabecular bone were seen, and there were bone trabecula formed. In a follow-up of one year, TMJ pain was significantly decreased [VAS: (1.7±0.2)], and the maximal interincisal opening was (38.5±2.2) mm. MRI showed that the TMJ disc returned to normal position, and the sign of repairing and reconstruction of condyle bone could be found. Conclusions Long term displacement of TMJ disc may cause ossification with pain and limitation of interincisal opening. According to the degree and extent of ossification, partial ossification plus disc reduction and anchorage or discectomy plus temporalis myofascial flap replacement is feasible, and the clinical effects are satisfactory.
