Abstract In April 2021, type Ⅰ vaccine-derived poliovirus (VDPV) was detected from two fecal samples of a male infant with acute flaccid paralysis (AFP) in Zhejiang Province when he was admitted to the Children's Hospital Affiliated to Fudan University in Shanghai, with 12 and 14 nucleotide mutations in the VP1 region, respectively. The case had a history of immunization with three doses of poliovirus vaccines, and grade Ⅲ proximal muscle strength and grade Ⅱ distal muscle strength of the right lower limb. After symptomatic treatment, the activity of the right lower limb and the muscle strength was significantly restored, thus he was discharged. VDPV was not detected from subsequent (the 8th to 12th) fecal samples of the case and fecal samples of close contacts. No similar cases were found in medical institutions in the county, surrounding areas, neighboring villages or towns. Since the case did not exhibit clinical symptoms of poliomyelitis caused by VDPV, poliomyelitis was excluded, and the case was diagnosed with hemophilia type A based on the epidemiological investigation, laboratory tests, and the history of poliomyelitis vaccination. This event involved cross-provincial (municipal) cooperation and was responsed promptly, preventing further spread of the virus. It suggested that the sensitivity of the AFP case surveillance system should be maintained, environmental monitoring methods should be increased, and the poliomyelitis vaccination should be promoted to prevent the spread of the virus.

Objective:To investigate the predictive ability of Glypican-3 (GPC3) positive hepatocellular carcinoma based on the hepatobiliary specific contrast agent gadoxetate disodium enhancement of the liver imaging reporting and data system version 2018 (LI-RADS v2018) imaging features, and to assess the relevant clinical imaging features for postoperative recurrence in GPC3 positive HCC patients.Methods:This study was a cohort study. A total of 122 hepatocellular carcinoma patients who underwent gadoxetate disodium enhanced MRI examination with hepatic tumor resection in Henan Provincial People′s Hospital from January 2017 to December 2021 were retrospectively collected, including 96 GPC3 positive and 26 GPC3 negative patients. The imaging features defined by LI-RADS v2018 of HCC lesions were analyzed. Patients were followed up for 40 months to determine recurrence free survival (RFS). The logistic regression was used to analyze the risk factors of GPC3 positivity. An imaging model, and a clinical-imaging model which combined the patient′s alpha-fetoprotein levels were constructed. The efficacy of the model for predicting GPC3 positivity was assessed using receiver operating characteristic curves. Kaplan-Meier method was used to draw the survival curve, and the log-rank test was used to compare the RFS between GPC3 positive and negative patients. Risk factors affecting the recurrence of GPC3 positive HCC were assessed by Cox regression.Results:The results of logistic multivariate regression analysis confirmed that rim enhancement ( OR=5.685, 95% CI 1.229-26.287, P=0.026) and irregular tumor margin at hepatobiliary phase ( OR=4.431, 95% CI 1.684-11.663, P=0.003) were independent risk factors for GPC3 positive HCC. The area under the curve for predicting GPC3 positivity was 0.745 (95% CI 0.636-0.854) for the imaging model and 0.776 (95% CI 0.677-0.876) for the clinical-imaging model. The mean RFS in the GPC3 positive group was 22 months, and it was 32 months in the negative group. There was a statistically significant difference in RFS between the two groups ( χ2=5.15, P=0.023). The multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that the arterial rim enhancement ( HR=5.460, 95% CI 1.966-15.162, P=0.001), microvascular invasion ( HR=2.402, 95% CI 1.210-4.769, P=0.012), portal vein tumor thrombus ( HR=3.226, 95% CI 1.114-9.344, P=0.031) were independent risk factors for recurrence after hepatic tumor resection for GPC3-positive HCC. Conclusions:A model based on the LI-RADS v2018 imaging features of hepatobiliary specific contrast agent gadoxetate disodium enhancement can effectively predict GPC3 positive HCC. The arterial rim enhancement, microvascular invasion and portal vein tumor thrombus are independent risk factors for postoperative recurrence of GPC3 positive HCC.

Objective: To explore the network structure characteristics and core items of rural middle school students suffering from campus bullying and anxiety symptoms, so as to provide a reference basis for the precise prevention and intervention of the comorbidity of campus bullying and anxiety symptoms. Methods: From September 2021 to March 2022, a multi stage random cluster sampling method was used to select 1 920 rural middle school students from Xuzhou. The Chinese version of the Olweus Bully/Victim Questionnaire was used to investigate the situation of campus bullying, and the Chinese version of the Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD-7) was used to assess anxiety symptoms. The network analysis method was used to construct the network between suffering from campus bullying and anxiety symptoms of rural middle school students to evaluate the centrality, bridge strength, stability and accuracy of each item. Results: The total score of suffering from campus bullying symptoms of rural middle school students was (10.42±3.26) points, and the total score of anxiety symptoms was (11.47±4.93) points. The symptom with the highest strength and expected influence was "unable to stop or control one s worry emotions", and the node strength and expected influence value was 1.041 7. The nodes "feel nervous, anxious or irritable" and "unable to stop or control one s worry emotions" were most closely related. The symptoms with the highest bridge strength were "others give me ugly nicknames to scold me or make fun of and satirize me" and "unable to stop or control one s worry emotions". Conclusions Rural middle school students suffering from campus bullying is related to anxiety symptoms. Accurate intervention according to the intervention targets may minimize the negative impact of suffering from campus bullying and anxiety symptoms on rural middle school students.

Objective To investigate the epidemiological characteristics and changing trend of malignant tumor death in Danjiangkou City, the water source area along the middle route of South-to-North Water Diversion Project. Methods The surveillance data of cancer death cases in Danjiangkou City from 2015 to 2022 were collected, and the mortality rate, gender mortality rate, age-specific mortality rate and the rank of cancer cause of death were calculated. Joinpoint regression model was used to analyze the trend of malignant tumor mortality and standardized mortality. Annual percentage change (APC) and average annual percentage change (AAPC) were calculated to analyze the trend changes. Results From 2015 to 2022, a total of 6 254 deaths from malignant tumors were reported in Danjiangkou City, with a crude mortality rate of 178.57/100 000 and a standardized mortality rate of 152.77/100 000. There were 4 366 male deaths, and the crude mortality and standardized mortality were 244.70/100 000 and 212.87/100 000 , respectively. There were 1 888 female deaths, and the crude mortality rate and the standardized mortality rate were 109.89/100 000 and 92.69/100 000, respectively. The crude death rate of malignant tumors in the whole population in Danjiangkou City showed an increasing trend from 2015 to 2022, and the difference was statistically significant (AAPC=5.18%, t=4.07, P<0.05). The crude mortality rates of malignant tumors in both men and women showed an upward trend, and the differences were statistically significant (AAPC =5.56% and 4.35%, both P<0.05). The standardized mortality rates of malignant tumors in the whole population, women and men remained stable, and the differences were not statistically significant (AAPC=0.68, 1.59 and -0.74, all P>0.05). The trend analysis of age-specific mortality of malignant tumors showed that the age-specific mortality of malignant tumors in the whole population, men and women showed an increasing trend with age, and the differences were statistically significant (AAPC =9.22%, 9.40% and 8.53%, P<0.05). The mortality rate of malignant tumors in 0-, 1-, 10-, 45- and 70- age groups decreased year by year (AAPC =-79.62%, -7.19%, -65.99%, -8.88%, and -5.83%, all P<0.05). The mortality rate in the age group of over 75 years old showed an increasing trend (AAPC =12.24%, P<0.05), and the differences were statistically significant. The top 10 malignant tumor deaths in the whole population were lung cancer, gastric cancer, liver cancer, esophageal cancer, colorectal cancer , leukemia , pancreatic cancer , breast cancer , brain malignant tumor and cervical cancer, accounting for 88.49% of all malignant tumor deaths. Mortality rates in lung cancer (AAPC =6.75%), esophageal cancer (AAPC=11.24%), colorectal cancer (AAPC =12.95%), leukemia (AAPC=8.10%), pancreatic cancer (AAPC=15.11%), breast cancer (AAPC=13.11%) and brain malignancies (AAPC=11.16%) showed an increasing trend, and the differences were statistical significant (P<0.05). Conclusion Malignant tumor is the main cause of death in Danjiangkou City. The death rate increases year by year and increases with age. Lung cancer, stomach cancer and liver cancer are the main causes of death. Men and the elderly are high-risk groups of malignant tumors. Early detection and treatment of malignant tumors should be strengthened to reduce the incidence and death.

Objective:To investigate the application value of nectin-4 targeting radiotracer 68Ga-N188 in the diagnosis of pancreatic cancer. Methods:The prospective study was conducted. The clinicopathologic data of 16 patients diagnosed as pancreatic cancer on enhanced computed tomography (CT) who were admitted to the Peking University First Hospital from August to December 2022 were collected. There were 9 males and 7 females, aged (62±8)years. All patients underwent 18F-flurodeoxyglucose ( 18F-FDG) and 68Ga-N188 positron emission tomography (PET)/CT examination.

Background Imidacloprid is a neonicotinoid insecticide that is widely used in agricultural production, with a high detection rate in human biological samples. Previous studies have shown a high correlation between imidacloprid exposure and liver injury, but the specific mechanism is still unknown. Objective To observe potential toxic effects of HepG2 cells and its perturbation of non-targeted metabolic profile after imidacloprid exposure, and to explore possible molecular mechanisms of hepatotoxicity of imidacloprid by analyzing invovlved biological processes and signaling pathways. Methods HepG2 cell suspension was prepared and seeded in a 96-well plate, which was divided into blank control group, dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) solvent control group and imidacloprid exposure groups with multiple concentrations. Each group was set with 5 parallel samples. The viability of HepG2 cells viability were determined after 8 h of exposure to different concentrationsof imidacloprid (1, 2.5, 5, 7.5, 10 mmol·L⁻¹), and the dose-effect relationship was analyzed. A proper concentration (3 mmol·L⁻¹ with 80% viability) was chosen for imidacloprid exposure, non-targeted metabolomic analysis was applied to the cultivated HepG2 cells using UHPLC-Q-TOF/MS technology, the differential metabolites between groups were screened, and the bioprocess and related signaling pathways of their enrichment were annotated using the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) database. Results Compared to the other two groups, the survival rates of HepG2 cells in the imidacloprid exposure groups decreased. A survival rate of about 86% of HepG2 cells was found in HepG2 cells exposed to 2.5 mmol·L⁻¹ imidacloprid exposure. The non-targeted metabolomics studies showed that 61 metabolites were significantly affected in HepG2 cells after 3 mmol·L⁻¹ imidacloprid exposure, including creatine (variable importance in projection VIP=1.11, P<0.001), arginine (VIP=1.47, P=0.048), taurine (VIP=4.28, P=0.001), and α-D-glucose (VIP=1.90, P=0.006). The differential metabolites enriched in bioprocess and related signaling pathways were mainly directed to mTOR signaling pathways (P<0.001), arginine and proline metabolism (P=0.002), and galactose metabolism (P=0.015). Conclusion Imidacloprid exposure can significantly inhibit the survival rate of HepG2 cells, and interfere with the mTOR signaling pathway, arginine and proline metabolism, galactose metabolism, and so on.

Objective:To investigate the value of radiomics based on three-dimensional high resolution MR vessel wall imaging (3D HRMR-VWI) for identifying culprit plaques in symptomatic patients with middle cerebral atherosclerosis.Methods:The clinical and imaging features of 117 patients (139 middle cerebral artery plaques) with cerebrovascular diseases in Tongji Hospital, Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology from October 2018 to October 2020 were respectively reviewed. Stratified random sampling was used to divide 139 plaques into training set (97 plaques) and validation set (42 plaque) at the ratio of 7∶3. The plaques were divided into 69 culprit plaques and 70 non-culprit plaques based on plaque MR features and clinical symptoms. The clinical and imaging characteristics of culprit plaques and non-culprit plaques were compared by independent sample t-test, Mann-Whitney U test and χ 2 test, and factors with significant difference between two groups in univariate analysis were further analyzed by multivariate logistic regression to find out the independent predictors of culprit plaques. Radiomics features were extracted, screened and radiomics model was constructed using pre-and post-contrast 3D HRMR-VWI based on the training set. The combined model was constructed by combining the independent predictors and radiomics model. Receiver operating characteristic curve and area under curve (AUC) were used to evaluate the efficacy of each model, and DeLong test was used to compare the efficacy of different models. Results:Significant difference was found in intraplaque hemorrhage, lumen area of stenosis, stenosis diameter, stenosis rate, plaque burden and enhancement rate between culprit and non-culprit plaques (all P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis confirmed that only intraplaque hemorrhage was the independent predictor for culprit plaques (OR=7.045,95%CI 1.402-35.397, P=0.018). In the validation set, the AUC of the pre-contrast 3D HRMR-VWI model was lower than that of the post-contrast 3D HRMR-VWI model ( Z=-2.01, P=0.044). The AUC of pre+post-contrast 3D HRMR-VWI model was not significantly different from that of post-contrast 3D HRMR-VWI model ( Z=0.79, P=0.427). The AUC showed no significant difference between combined model and pre+post-contrast 3D HRMR-VWI model ( Z=-0.59, P>0.05). The combined model showed the best performance in predicting culprit plaques of middle cerebral artery (AUC=0.939), with the sensitivity, specificity and accuracy of 95.24%, 76.19% and 85.71%. Conclusion:Radiomics based on 3D HRMR-VWI has potential values in identifying culprit plaques in symptomatic patients with middle cerebral atherosclerosis.

Objective:To investigate the clinical profile of primary bilateral macronodular adrenal hyperplasia(PBMAH) and sex difference.Methods:One hundred and forty cases of PBMAH were recruited in our center from 2014, and all patients were evaluated for hormone secretion, adrenal imaging, and metabolic parameters.Results:Overt Cushing′s syndrome accounted for 76.4% of PBMAH cohort and 47.9% were female. The overt group had higher serum cortisol and 24 h urinary free cortisol levels, lower adrenocorticotropic hormone, higher serum cortisol after low-dose dexamethasone suppression tests, larger total adrenal size, and a higher percentage of obesity, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, and hypokalemia than the subclinical group(all P<0.05). When compared with the male group, the female group had smaller adrenal size( P<0.001), lower HbA 1C( P=0.003), higher total cholesterol( P=0.005), and lower density lipoprotein-cholesterol levels( P=0.035). Further, 24 h urinary free cortisol in the male group was found to be positively correlated with diastolic blood pressure, fasting glucose, 2 h postprandial glucose after oral glucose tolerance test(OGTT), and HbA 1C after adjusted for age, body mass index, and onset duration, and was negatively correlated with body mass index and potassium levels. While 24 h urinary free cortisol in the female group was positively correlated only with diastolic blood pressure, fasting glucose, and 2 h postprandial glucose after OGTT(all P<0.05). During follow-up, 80.0% of patients achieved remission after unilateral adrenalectomy, with a recurrence rate of 17.9%. Conclusion:PBMAH related metabolic disorder is more pronounced in overt Cushing′s syndrome and males. Unilateral adrenalectomy as an effective treatment can benefit the majority of patients.

Objective:This study aimed to investigate the risk features of postoperative tumor recurrence of medullary thyroid carcinoma.Methods:One hundred and seventy two patients with medullary thyroid carcinoma diagnosed at Tianjin Cancer Hospital between Jan 2010 and Jan 2018 were enrolled in this study. Based on the follow-up results, patients were divided into tumor recurrence and non-tumor recurrence group. US features,clinicopathological characteristics and somatic RET mutations were evaluated between the two groups. The cut-off values of pre-and post-operative serum calcitonin were calculated by ROC curve.Univariate and multivariate analysis were adopted between the two groups to determine independent risk factors for tumor recurrence of MTC.Tumor-free survival was determined by Kaplan-Meier analysis.Results:Univariate analysis showed that preoperative serum calcitonin≥1 367 pg/ml ( χ2=18.909, P=0.000), postoperative serum calcitonin ≥61 pg/ml ( χ2=72.278, P=0.000), mulifocality ( χ2=11.787, P=0.001),lesions in both lobes ( χ2=10.452, P=0.003), extrathyroidal invasion ( χ2=14.511, P=0.000), T3+T4-staging ( χ2=11.920, P=0.001)、TNMⅢ+Ⅳ-staging ( χ2=18.915, P=0.000), ACR TI-RADS 5 ( χ2=7.162, P=0.006) and RET mutation ( χ2=10.937, P=0.001) were significantly related to tumor recurrence of medullary thyroid carcinoma. Multivariate analysis demonstrated that postoperative serum calcitonin≥61 pg/ml ( OR=22.323, 95%CI: 6.370-78.236) and RET mutation ( OR=4.054, 95%CI: 1.354-12.139) were the independent factors related to tumor recurrence of medullary thyroid carcinoma.The survival curves of MTC patients showed a significantly lower percentage of surviving patients in the group with postoperative serum calcitonin ≥61 pg/ml ( P=0.000) or RET mutations ( P=0.001). Conclusions:Postoperative serum calcitonin ≥61 pg/ml and oncogenic RET mutation were the independent risk factors for tumor recurrence of MTC.Patients with postoperative serum calcitonin ≥61 pg/ml or a RET mutation tended to have a shorter tumor-free survival.
