ObjectiveTo discover and analyze single or several correlative key amino acid sites that influence the host tropism during the influenza A virus (IAV) infection based on complete internal protein gene segments of IAV strains, and to provide evidence for the study of human host-adaptive mutations of IAV. MethodsThe full-length nucleotide sequences of 43 671 IAV strains containing 6 complete internal gene segments were downloaded from the GISAID EpiFluTM database, and 698 human-tropic (HU) and 1 266 avian-tropic (AV) representative strains were included. The consensus coding sequences of the representative strains from the amphitropic category were compared by R script, and the differential amino acid sites and their polymorphisms were then obtained. The multi-site combination analysis of differential sites was conducted with R script. ResultsA total of 49 and 57 conserved differential sites were obtained from the consensus sequence comparison between AV and H1N1 (subtype from HU), and comparison between AV and H3N2 (another subtype from HU), separately. 79 and 65 multi-site combinations were found between HU and AV strains through 3 and 4 sites combination analysis, respectively, and a total of 11 conserved sites were involved: site 271 and 684 in PB2; site 336, 486, 581 and 621 in PB1; site 204 and 356 in PA; site 33, 305 and 357 in NP. No eligible differential sites were found in M1 and NS1. ConclusionSeveral conserved amino acid differential sites, between HU and AV strains of IAV, are found in PB2, PB1, PA and NP proteins. Instead of working as single units, these sites may have interactions, forming specific amino acid combinations that determine the host tropism of IAV collectively.

Objective:To explore the facilitating and inhibitory factors influencing the behavior of young patients to share medical electronic word-of-mouth (eWOM) on internet platforms, so as to provide insights for the improvement of healthcare quality.Methods:In May 2022, 271 undergraduate students from universities in Zhejiang province were selected by convenient sampling to survey their motivations to share eWOM with a self-designed questionnaire. Multiple regression analysis was used to examine the impact of different motivational factors on the sharing intention of young patients.Results:Only 16 respondents (5.9%) had previously published medical eWOM. Egoistic motivation, altruistic motivation, medical experience, and comment habits were significant factors that promoted patients to share eWOM, with egoistic motivation ( β=0.212, P<0.001) having the greatest impact and comment habit ( β=0.139, P=0.003) having the least impact. Distrust, low self-efficacy and involvement, perceived reluctance, and perceived uselessness were significant factors inhibiting patients from publishing eWOM. Of them, distrust ( β=-0.161, P<0.001) and perceived reluctance ( β=-0.161, P=0.001) had the greatest impact, and low self-efficacy and involvement had the least impact ( β=-0.134, P=0.003). Conclusions:To enhance the positive attitude of young patients towards sharing eWOM, it is important to focus on their personal benefits and provide high-quality healthcare experiences. Building trust among patients in the platform is crucial, and efforts should be made to reduce operational barriers. Additionally, educating and raising awareness among young patients regarding the significance and influence of healthcare reviews is important.

Objective:To explore the technical feasibility of CT feature tracking (CT-FT) technique in evaluating left ventricular myocardial strain and evaluate the change of myocardial strain in patients with coronary heart disease.Methods:Eighty-one patients with coronary heart disease (lesion group) and 33 patients with normal coronary artery (control group) matched with age and sex were collected retrospectively from the Second Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University from April 2019 to October 2020. The lesion group was first divided into single vessel stenosis group (42 cases) and multi vessel stenosis group (39 cases) according to the number of coronary artery stenosis branches, and the global myocardial strains of the left ventricle between the groups were analyzed. Lesion site included the left anterior descending branch (LAD), right coronary artery (RCA) and left circumflex branch (LCX), respectively. According to the degree of vascular stenosis, the lesion groups were divided into normal group, mild stenosis group, moderate stenosis group and severe stenosis group. The segmental myocardial strains of the branch segment of LAD, RCA or LCX were analyzed between groups. All CCTA examinations were performed with retrospective electrocardiogram gating. CVI 42 cardiac postprocessing software was used to obtain myocardial strain parameters, including global peak longitudinal strain (GPLS), global peak circumferential strain (GPCS), global peak radial strain (GPRS), and the segmental myocardial strains of the branch segment of LAD, RCA or LCX. The segmental myocardial strains included the peak longitudinal strain (PLS), peak circumferential strain (PCS) and peak radial strain (PRS). One way ANOVA or Kruskal Wallis H test were used for multi group analysis. Results:With the increased number of coronary artery stenosis branches, the absolute value of GPLS gradually decreased. The GPLS of the control group, single vessel stenosis group and multi vessel stenosis group were -14.1%±2.7%, -11.5%±2.3% and -8.8%±2.0%, respectively. The difference of GPLS between the 3 groups or any 2 groups was statistically significant (all P<0.001). The absolute values of GPRS and GPRS in multi vessel stenosis group were significantly lower than those in control group and single vessel stenosis group (all P<0.001). There was no significant difference in GPRS or GPRS between single vessel stenosis group and control group ( P=0.083, 0.118). And there were significant differences in the segmental myocardial strains of the branch segment of LAD, RCA or LCX among 3 groups ( P<0.001). In severe stenosis group, the absolute values of PRS, PCS and PLS in LAD, RCA or LCX were significantly lower than those in moderate stenosis group, mild stenosis group and normal group (all P<0.05). In the moderate stenosis group, the absolute value of PLS in each branch segment was lower than that of the mild stenosis and normal group (all P<0.05), and there was no significant difference in any 2 other myocardial strain parameters of each branch (all P>0.05). Conclusions:CT-FT technique was feasible to evaluate left ventricular myocardial function. With the increased number or degree of coronary artery stenosis, the global and segmental myocardial strain parameters of left ventricle gradually decreased, and the longitudinal strain was more sensitive.
