Threatened abortion is a common disease of obstetrics and gynecology and one of the diseases responding specifically to traditional Chinese medicine （TCM）. The China Association of Chinese Medicine organized experts in TCM obstetrics and gynecology， Western medicine obstetrics and gynecology， and pharmacology to deeply discuss the advantages of TCM and integrated Chinese and Western medicine treatment as well as the medication plans for threatened abortion. After discussion， the experts concluded that chromosome， endocrine， and immune abnormalities were the key factors for the occurrence of threatened abortion， and the Qi and blood disorders in thoroughfare and conception vessels were the core pathogenesis. In the treatment of threatened abortion， TCM has advantages in preventing miscarriages， alleviating clinical symptoms and TCM syndromes， relieving anxiety， regulating reproductive endocrine and immune abnormalities， personalized and diversified treatment， enhancing efficiency and reducing toxicity， and preventing the disease before occurrence. The difficulty in diagnosis and treatment of threatened abortion with traditional Chinese and Western medicine lies in identifying the predictors of abortion caused by maternal factors and the treatment of thrombophilia. Recurrent abortion is the breakthrough point of treatment with integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine. It is urgent to carry out high-quality evidence-based medicine research in the future to improve the modern diagnosis and treatment of threatened abortion with TCM.

Objective To evaluate the short-term results of sleeve wrapping technique using remnant aortic wall in modified Bentall procedure. Methods The patients undergoing modified Bentall procedure with the remnant aortic wall as a sleeve to cover the sewing area of composite valved graft and the aortic annulus for proximal hemostasis between March 2021 and March 2022 in Shenzhen Fuwai Hospital were enrolled. Short-term results were assessed by cardiopulmonary bypass time, aortic clamping time, mechanical ventilation time, ICU stay, postoperative hospital stay, effusion drainage on the first postoperative day, left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), left ventricular end diastolic diameter (LVEDD), and follow-up results. Results A total of 14 patients were collected, including 12 males and 2 females, with a mean age of 55.33±10.57 years. There was no postoperative or follow-up death. Cardiopulmonary bypass time was 147.90±21.29 min, aortic clamping time was 115.70±15.23 min, mechanical ventilation time was 19.42±8.98 h, ICU stay was 99.08±49.42 h, and postoperative hospital stay was 16.33±2.74 d. Thoracic drainage volume was 333.33±91.98 mL on the first postoperative day. Only 2 patients required blood transfusion (4.5 U and 2 U, respectively). During the follow-up of 6.17±3.69 months, there was no death, no aortic or valve-related complications. There was statistical difference in the LVEDD between preoperation and before discharge after surgery (P＜0.001), and between half a year after surgery and before discharge after surgery (P＜0.001). There was a little decrease of LVEF before discharge after surgery compared with preoperative LVEF, but there was no statistical difference (P=0.219). There was no statistical difference in the LVEF half a year after operation compared with that before operation (P=1.000). Conclusion Sleeve wrapping technique using remnant aortic wall in modified Bentall procedure has good short-term results. This modification may be a simple, effective way in controlling proximal bleeding.

Objective:To analyze the epidemiological features of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection in Beijing, and monitor the sequence variations in RSV glycoprotein (G) gene and clinical features of infected children.Methods:Respiratory tract specimens were collected from children with acute respiratory infection in the Children′s Hospital Affiliated to Capital Institute of Pediatrics from January 1, 2023 to December 31, 2023. RSV-positive specimens screened by multiple nucleic acid testing were subjected to PCR to amplify the full-length RSV G gene. A phylogenetic tree was constructed after gene sequencing to analyze RSV subtypes and trace G gene variants. Clinical data were retrieved from the medical record system to analyze the clinical features of children with RSV infection in Beijing.Results:A total of 5 489 respiratory specimens were collected from 3 046 male patients and 2 443 female patients. The average age of the patients was 4.36 years. A total of 589 RSV-positive specimens (10.7%, 589/5 489) were detected with 349 from male patients and 240 from female patients. The average age of children with RSV infection was (2.51±2.78) years and the median age was 0.48 years. RSV had been circulating among children in Beijing since March 2023 with two epidemic peaks in May (24.6%, 122/496) and December (18.2%, 126/693). The predominant subtype of RSV in the first half of 2023 was subtype A, but it was replaced by subtype B from November 2023. Phylogenetic analysis revealed a novel G gene of RSV subtype B (RSV-B-BA9-954bp) with a length of 954 bp, which belonged to a new cluster in the phylogenetic tree. The percentage of patients admitted to the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) was higher in children with new variant of RSV subtype B infection than in those with common RSV subtype B infection [44.1% (15/34) vs 25.2% (31/123), χ 2=4.600, P=0.032], while the counts of white blood cells and the levels of C-reactive protein were lower in the children with new variant infection ( P<0.05). Conclusions:RSV has been prevalent among children in Beijing since March 2023 with two epidemic peaks. The predominant A subtype is gradually replaced by to B subtype. A new variant of RSV B G gene (RSV-B-BA9-954bp) is detected among the children.

Objective To investigate the incidence of central obesity and characteristics and changing trend of macronutrient energy supply in adult residents of Chongqing, and to analyze the relationship between carbohydrate energy supply and central obesity. Methods Using the longitudinal tracking data of China Health and Nutrition Survey project, combined with China food composition table , the energy and nutrient intake and macronutrient energy supply ratio were calculated. The association between carbohydrate energy supply and central obesity was analyzed by multi-level statistical model. Results In 2011, 2015 and 2018, the carbohydrate supply ratio of adult residents in Chongqing was 43.02%, 46.52%, and 46.07%, respectively, and the difference was statistically significant (F=18.699, P<0.001). The overweight rates in 2011, 2015, and 2018 were 29.2%, 36.7%, and 37.8%, while the obesity rates were 12.2%, 13.5%, and 19.5%, respectively, with statistically significant differences (χ²=41.416, P<0.001). The central obesity rates were 51.5%, 57.2%, and 62.8%, respectively (χ²=21.008, P<0.001). The carbohydrate supply ratio was positively correlated with waist circumference. Compared to the population with a carbohydrate to energy ratio of <55%, the risk of central obesity in the population with a carbohydrate to energy ratio of ≥ 65% was 1.63 times higher. Conclusion The ratio of carbohydrate to energy supply of adult residents in Chongqing has slightly increased. Rates of overweight, obesity and central obesity are on the rise. A high carbohydrate to energy supply ratio may be a risk factor for central obesity.

Objective:To analyze the efficacy and safety of FOLFOX-hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy (HAIC) combined with targeted immunotherapy for initial unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the data of initial unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma patients who visited Ruijin Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiaotong University School of Medicine from June 2022 to June 2023. A total of 51 patients were enrolled, including 47 males and 4 females, with the age of (56.1±10.7) years. All 51 patients received HAIC combined with immune targeted therapy. After each HAIC combined with immune targeted therapy, the efficacy was evaluated according to the modified response evaluation cirteria in solid tumor (mRECIST). Objective response rate and disease control rate were calculuted. The conversion surgery rate and adverse events during treatment were recorded. Follow up patients' disease progression and survival status, and meanwhile analyze prognosis.Results:According to mRECIST assessment, the number of patients with complete remission, partial remission, disease stability, and disease progression were 4 (7.8%), 27 (52.9%), 14 (27.4%), and 6 (11.8%), respectively. The disease remission rate was 60.8%(31/51), and the disease control rate was 88.2%(45/51). After HAIC combined with immune targeted therapy, 13 patients underwent liver cancer resection, with a surgical conversion rate of 25.5%(13/51). The median progression free survival of 51 patients was 14.2 months, and the median overall survival has not yet been reached. The progression free survival rates of 51 patients at 6 and 12 months were 90.2% and 64.7%, respectively, and the cumulative survival rates at 6 and 12 months were 100% and 86.3%, respectively. During the treatment period, all patients experienced various degrees of adverse reactions, 38(75.5%) patients were grade 1-2 adverse accidents, which could be relieved and controlled after corresponding treatment.Conclusion:FOLFOX-HAIC combined with targeted immunotherapy provides an effective and safe treatment option for unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma, offering surgical resection opportunities for unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma patients.

The eutR gene deletion mutant of Salmonella enteritidis was successfully constructed by homologous recombination.Through the study of its biochemical characteristics,motility,resist-ance to stress in vitro and survival ability in RAW 264.7 cells,it was found that the biochemical characteristics and motility of the eutR gene deletion mutant of Salmonella enteritidis had no sig-nificant change compared with the wild type of Salmonella enteritidis.The ability of eutR gene de-letion strain of Salmonella enteritidis to resist acid,alkali and oxidation was significantly reduced,while the ability to resist heat was not significantly changed;the survival ability of eutR gene dele-tion strain in RAW 264.7 cells was significantly reduced compared with the wild type.In order to further analyze the effect of eutR gene on the expression of virulence factors of Salmonella enterit-idis,the relative expression levels of invH,ssav,ssrA,xthA,orf245,sodC,lrp,mrr1 and hflk virulence genes of the deletion strain and the wild strain were detected by SYBR Green PCR.It was found that the expression of the virulence factors mentioned above in the eutR gene deletion strain of Salmonella enteritidis was significantly down-regulated compared with that in the wild-type strain.The LD50 of the eutR gene-deleted strain of Salmonella enteritidis was determined by ani-mal experiments,and the results showed that the LD50 of the eutR gene-deleted strain was higher than that of the wild-type strain,indicating that the eutR gene could affect the virulence of Salmonella.This study clarified the effect of eutR gene on the survival ability,some biological characteristics and virulence of Salmonella enteritidis in macrophages,and provided a new gene knockout target for the development of attenuated Salmonella enteritidis genetic engineering vac-cine.

Objective:To determine lysophosphatidic acid receptor 6 (LPAR6) expression in patients with mycosis fungoides (MF) , a variant of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL) , and to investigate its role and mechanism of action in the development and prognosis of CTCL.Methods:A total of 110 patients with confirmed MF were collected from Department of Dermatology, Peking University First Hospital from 2011 to 2020, including 24 with large-cell transformation (LCT) and 25 with non-large cell transformation (NLCT) in the discovery cohort, and 24 with LCT and 37 with NLCT in the validation cohort. RNA sequencing and RT-PCR were conducted to determine the LPAR6 expression in patients in the discovery cohort and validation cohort respectively. LPAR6 expression was compared between patients with LCT and those with NLCT, and its effect on the prognosis of patients was evaluated. Two LPAR6-overexpressing CTCL cell lines MyLa and Sz4 were constructed to evaluate the effect of LPAR6 overexpression on proliferative activity of MyLa and Sz4 cells, with the cells normally expressing LPAR6 as the control group; after the treatment with LPAR6-related ligand lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) , 2S-OMPT, adenosine triphosphate (ATP) or adenosine (ADO) , the effects of LPAR6 activation on the proliferative activity and apoptosis of LPAR6-overexpressing MyLa and Sz4 cells were evaluated by the MTS method and flow cytometry respectively. Log-rank test was used for prognostic analysis, and t test or Mann-Whitney U test was used for comparisons between two groups. Results:As RNA sequencing showed, LPAR6 was one of the significantly underexpressed genes in the LCT group in the discovery cohort; in the validation cohort, LPAR6 expression (median[ Q1, Q3]) was significantly lower in the LCT group (204.90[81.90, 512.70]) than in the NLCT group (809.40[417.50, 1 829.20], U= 242.00, P= 0.002) ; in the two cohorts, the underexpression of LPAR6 was significantly associated with increased risk of poor prognosis (both P < 0.01) . Cell proliferation assay showed no significant difference in the proliferative activity of MyLa or Sz4 cells between the LPAR6 overexpression group and control group at 0, 24, 48 and 72 hours during the experiment (all P > 0.05) ; 48 hours after activation of LPAR6 by LPA, 2S-OMPT, ATP and ADO in MyLa cells, the LPAR6 overexpression group showed significantly decreased cellular proliferative activity (1.38 ± 0.01, 1.04 ± 0.01, 1.09 ± 0.03, 1.23 ± 0.01, respectively) compared the control group (1.73 ± 0.04, 1.23 ± 0.01, 1.24 ± 0.01, 1.42 ± 0.03, t= 30.33, 18.38, 4.78, 5.75, respectively, all P < 0.05) , but significantly increased cell apoptosis rate (17.93% ± 0.88%, 17.75% ± 0.35%, 23.97% ± 0.57%, 31.44% ± 0.34%, respectively) compared the control group (3.98% ± 0.03%, 7.81% ± 0.59%, 11.95% ± 0.85%, 12.02% ± 0.48%, t= 15.93, 14.49, 11.74, 33.01, respectively, all P < 0.05) ; 48 hours after activation of LPAR6 by 2S-OMPT and ADO in Sz4 cells, compared with the control group, the LPAR6 overexpression group also showed significantly decreased cellular proliferative activity (2S-OMPT: 1.29 ± 0.04 vs. 1.48 ± 0.01; ADO: 1.27 ± 0.01 vs. 1.51 ± 0.02; both P < 0.05) , but significantly increased cell apoptosis rate (2S-OMPT: 41.70% ± 0.70% vs. 29.35% ± 0.55%; ADO: 37.05% ± 0.15% vs. 24.60% ± 1.00%; both P < 0.05) . Conclusions:LPAR6 was underexpressed in the patients with LCT, and its underexpression was significantly associated with increased risk of poor prognosis. In vitro activation of LPAR6 could inhibit the proliferation of CTCL cells and promote their apoptosis, suggesting that the decrease of LPAR6 expression may be one of the important mechanisms underlying disease progression in patients with LCT.

Objective To evaluate the malnutrition status and analyze the changing trends of nutritional status among primary and middle school students in poor rural areas of Chongqing from 2013 to 2019, and to provide scientific bases for formulating measures to improve students' nutrition status. Methods In 12 poor rural areas in Chongqing, a random sampling was adopted. At least 10% of elementary and middle schools were randomly selected in each area each year. At least 40 students were sampled in each grade to measure their height and weight. The nutritional status of the students was evaluated and the changing trend of nutritional status in the five years from 2013 to 2019 was analyzed. Results From 2013 to 2019, the prevalence rate of malnutrition showed a downward trend. The prevalence rate of malnutrition of boys was higher than that of girls. The prevalence rate of growth retardation decreased more significantly than that of emaciation. Conclusion The status of malnutrition among students in poor areas of Chongqing had been improved, but had not been eliminated yet. Further attention should be paid to the changes of students' nutritional status and timely measures should be taken to improve the students' nutritional and health status.

Objective To investigate the accuracy of sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) scoring in emergency physicians in Beijing. Methods Emergency physicians from 8 hospitals in Beijing in January 2018 were demanded to complete a SOFA questionnaire which was developed on ''wenjuanxing'' website and submit via cell phone. All participants were divided into urban center group (UC group) and no-urban center group (NUC group) based on the hospital's location. The accuracy rate of components and total score of SOFA along with the mistakes were evaluated, and the results of the two groups were compared. Results ① The questionnaire was sent to 217 emergency physicians of the 8 hospitals, and 197 qualified questionnaires were received with 109 of NUC group and 88 of UC group, respectively, the total response rate was 90.8%. Compared with those from NUC group, UC physicians had older ages [years:37 (32, 42) vs. 34 (29, 40), Z = -2.554, P = 0.011] and higher education level [postgraduate degree 76.1% (67/88) vs. 40.4% (44/109), χ2= 25.327, P < 0.001], and more of them experienced SOFA scoring [62.5% (55/88) vs. 45.9% (50/109), χ2= 5.409, P = 0.020]. Other baseline characteristics such as gender, working years, professional title and training experience were not different between the two groups. ② The accuracy rate of total SOFA score was 62.4% (123/197) in the whole cohort, and UC group was lower than that of NUC group, but the difference was not significant [56.8% (50/88) vs. 67.0% (73/109), χ2= 2.141, P = 0.143]. While comparing the accuracy of individual variable/system of SOFA, the accuracy rate of norepinephrine of UC group was much higher than NUC group [80.7% (71/88) vs. 66.1% (72/109), χ2= 5.235, P = 0.022], but the accuracy of Glasgow coma scale (GCS) was much lower in NUC group [38.6% (27/70) vs. 81.6% (71/87), χ2= 30.629, P < 0.001]. Other variables of SOFA were not different between the two groups. ③Based upon the results of all submitted questionnaires, 566 mistakes were identified. It was indicated that the mistakes per capital was 2.9 in the whole cohort and in the two groups. The first type mistakes which caused by carelessness (including calculating error, filling error, choosing error) were 233 times. The calculating error in norepinephrine from NUC physicians was higher than the UC group [33.9% (37/109) vs. 19.3% (17/88), χ2= 5.235, P =0.022], there was no significant difference in any other first type mistakes between the two groups. The total second type mistakes caused by misunderstanding of SOFA (including using wrong variables, not using the worst value within 24 hours, and incorrect GCS score) were 333 times in the whole cohort. GCS error [61.8% (42/88) vs. 16.9% (14/109), χ2=32.292, P<0.001], and using urine output per hour instead of urine output per 24 hours [15.9% (14/88) vs. 4.6% (5/109), χ2= 7.162, P = 0.007] were much higher in UC group than NUC group. Conclusions The total accuracy of SOFA scoring in the investigated emergency physicians of 8 hospitals in Beijing was not good. Mistakes causing by carelessness or misunderstanding of score rules were similar. It is necessary to apply strict training in SOFA scoring.
