Immobilized enzyme-based enzyme electrode biosensors, characterized by high sensitivity and efficiency, strong specificity, and compact size, demonstrate broad application prospects in life science research, disease diagnosis and monitoring, etc. Immobilization of enzyme is a critical step in determining the performance (stability, sensitivity, and reproducibility) of the biosensors. Random immobilization (physical adsorption, covalent cross-linking, etc.) can easily bring about problems, such as decreased enzyme activity and relatively unstable immobilization. Whereas, directional immobilization utilizing amino acid residue mutation, affinity peptide fusion, or nucleotide-specific binding to restrict the orientation of the enzymes provides new possibilities to solve the problems caused by random immobilization. In this paper, the principles, advantages and disadvantages and the application progress of enzyme electrode biosensors of different directional immobilization strategies for enzyme molecular sensing elements by specific amino acids (lysine, histidine, cysteine, unnatural amino acid) with functional groups introduced based on site-specific mutation, affinity peptides (gold binding peptides, carbon binding peptides, carbohydrate binding domains) fused through genetic engineering, and specific binding between nucleotides and target enzymes (proteins) were reviewed, and the application fields, advantages and limitations of various immobilized enzyme interface characterization techniques were discussed, hoping to provide theoretical and technical guidance for the creation of high-performance enzyme sensing elements and the manufacture of enzyme electrode sensors.

Dysphagia is a common complication of stroke. Combining the principles of traditional Chinese medicine with modern research findings, it is proposed that "latent pathogen in the cerebral collaterals" constitutes the core pathogenesis of post-stroke dysphagia (PSD). In clinical practice, treatment is tailored according to the location of PSD. During the oral stage, when the pathogen invades the face and mouth, resulting in excessive salivation, acupoints are primarily selected from the foot shaoyin (少阴) kidney channel, in combination with ren mai (任脉) , du mai (督脉), chong mai (冲脉) and the spleen channel, to replenish essence and fill the marrow, dispel dampness and unblock the channels. In the pharyngeal stage, as the pathogen obstructs the throat, disrupting normal swallowing, the therapy emphasizes dredging the shaoyang (少阳) channel and warming and tonifying the jueyin (厥阴) channel, by taking acupoints mainly from the hand and foot shaoyang channels, along with the jueyin channels, so as to soothe the liver and promote bile secretion, regulate and harmonize qi and blood. During the esophageal stage, where the pathogen damages the esophagus, impeding food passage, the treatment emphasizes activating the yangming (阳明) channels and regulating taiyin (太阴) channels; acupoints are mainly selected from the foot yangming stomach channel, along with the taiyin channels, aiming to warm yang, unblock the channels and dispel stasis.

Objective:To construct a novel respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) vaccine based on a recombinant influenza virus vector and evaluate its immune protective effects in mice.Methods:A recombinant H1N1 influenza A virus (IAV) expressing the extracellular domain (Gecto) of RSV A2 G protein was constructed and rescued, named as PR8NAGecto/WSN. After in vitro verification of the Gecto expression and PR8NAGecto/WSN growth kinetics, a single dose of PR8NAGecto/WSN was used to immunize BALB/c mice through intranasal administration to evaluate the efficacy of PR8NAGecto/WSN by assessing humoral (IgG, neutralizing antibody), mucosal (IgA) and cellular immunity (IFN-γ ELISPOT). Four weeks after immunization, the mice were challenged with RSV A2 or RSV B9320 to evaluate the protective effects of PR8NAGecto/WSN by analyzing mouse body weight changes, lung tissue virus titers and pathological changes. Results:A single-dose intranasal immunization with PR8NAGecto/WSN induced robust humoral, mucosal and cellular immunity in mice. Moreover, the mice in the immunized group had lower lung virus loads and mild lung pathological damages following the challenge with RSV A or RSV B subtype as compared with the control group.Conclusions:A single-dose intranasal immunization with PR8NAGecto/WSN induces robust immunity and provide protection against RSV A and B challenges in mice. This study provides new ideas and reference for the development of novel mucosal vaccines against RSV.

Objective:To investigate the current status of endoscopic treatment for gastroesophageal varices in portal hypertension in China, and to provide supporting data and reference for the development of endoscopic treatment.Methods:In this study, initiated by the Liver Health Consortium in China (CHESS), a questionnaire was designed and distributed online to investigate the basic condition of endoscopic treatment for gastroesophageal varices in portal hypertension in 2022 in China. Questions included annual number and indication of endoscopic procedures, adherence to guideline for preventing esophagogastric variceal bleeding (EGVB), management and timing of emergent EGVB, management of gastric and isolated varices, and improvement of endoscopic treatment. Proportions of hospitals concerning therapeutic choices to all participant hospitals were calculated. Guideline adherence between secondary and tertiary hospitals were compared by using Chi-square test.Results:A total of 836 hospitals from 31 provinces (anotomous regions and municipalities) participated in the survey. According to the survey, the control of acute EGVB (49.3%, 412/836) and the prevention of recurrent bleeding (38.3%, 320/836) were major indications of endoscopic treatment. For primary [non-selective β-blocker (NSBB) or endoscopic therapies] and secondary prophylaxis (NSBB and endoscopic therapies) of EGVB, adherence to domestic guideline was 72.5% (606/836) and 39.2% (328/836), respectively. There were significant differences in the adherence between secondary and tertiary hospitals in primary prophylaxis of EGVB [71.0% (495/697) VS 79.9% (111/139), χ2=4.11, P=0.033] and secondary prophylaxis of EGVB [41.6% (290/697) VS 27.3% (38/139), χ2=9.31, P=0.002]. A total of 78.2% (654/836) hospitals preferred endoscopic therapies treating acute EGVB, and endoscopic therapy was more likely to be the first choice for treating acute EGVB in tertiary hospitals (82.6%, 576/697) than secondary hospitals [56.1% (78/139), χ2=46.33, P<0.001]. The optimal timing was usually within 12 hours (48.5%, 317/654) and 12-24 hours (36.9%, 241/654) after the bleeding. Regarding the management of gastroesophageal varices type 2 and isolated gastric varices type 1, most hospitals used cyanoacrylate injection in combination with sclerotherapy [48.2% (403/836) and 29.9% (250/836), respectively], but substantial proportions of hospitals preferred clip-assisted therapies [12.4% (104/836) and 26.4% (221/836), respectively]. Improving the skills of endoscopic doctors (84.2%, 704/836), and enhancing the precision of pre-procedure evaluation and quality of multidisciplinary team (78.9%, 660/836) were considered urgent needs in the development of endoscopic treatment. Conclusion:A variety of endoscopic treatments for gastroesophageal varices in portal hypertension are implemented nationwide. Participant hospitals are active to perform emergent endoscopy for acute EGVB, but are inadequate in following recommendations regarding primary and secondary prophylaxis of EGVB. Moreover, the selection of endoscopic procedures for gastric varices differs greatly among hospitals.

Objective To understand the current status of emergency vaccination of hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) vaccine in Jingzhou, serological monitoring and the incidence of vaccinated population, and to evaluate the protective effect of emergency vaccination of HFRS vaccine on the control of HFRS epidemic in the city. Methods From 2018 to 2020, HFRS vaccination was carried out in Jianli City, Honghu City, Jiangling County, Gongan County and some townships in Shashi City, Jingzhou City, focusing on people aged 30-59 years old. The incidence of HFRS, vaccination history of cases and HFRS vaccination data of Jingzhou City were collected and analyzed by descriptive epidemiological methods. The sera of those who had not been vaccinated with HFRS vaccine (non-vaccinated group) and those who had been vaccinated with HFRS vaccine (vaccinated group) were collected for IgG antibody detection, and the serum IgG was detected by ELISA method. The correlation between the change in the number of cases in townships where people were vaccinated (comparison between 2017-2018 and 2020) and the vaccination rate before 2019 was analyzed. Results A total of 446 900 doses of HFRS vaccine were vaccinated from 2018 to 2020, covering 22 townships in 5 counties and cities, accounting for 17.19% (22/128) of the total number of townships in the city. A total of 120 953 people completed 3 doses of vaccination, accounting for 11.30% of the total population and 23.77% of the population aged 30-59 in the vaccinated township. The positive rate of IgG in the unvaccinated group in Jingzhou was 9.91% (85/858). The positive rate of IgG in the vaccination group was 40.96% (34/83). The positive rates of IgG in the 1-dose group, 2- dose group, and 3-dose group were 0 (0/2), 18.18% (6/33), and 58.33% (28/48), respectively. From 2017 to 2020, a total of 16 cases had been vaccinated with HFRS before the onset of the disease, and 81.25% (13/16) received 2 doses or less of HFRS vaccine. The changes in the number of cases was negatively correlated with the vaccination rate of the whole population in townships where people were vaccinated (rs=-0.58, P=0.011). The changes in the number of cases was negatively correlated with the vaccination rate of people aged 30-59 years in townships where people were vaccinated (rs=-0.46, P=0.055). Conclusion The HFRS vaccination before 2019 has played a certain protective effect on the vaccinated population. However, the inoculation rate of HFRS vaccine in Jingzhou City is still low, and the protective effect on the whole population has not yet appeared.

Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) diseases are common clinical conditions. The number of patients with TMJ diseases is large, and the etiology, epidemiology, disease spectrum, and treatment of the disease remain controversial and unknown. To understand and master the current situation of the occurrence, development and prevention of TMJ diseases, as well as to identify the patterns in etiology, incidence, drug sensitivity, and prognosis is crucial for alleviating patients′suffering.This will facilitate in-depth medical research, effective disease prevention measures, and the formulation of corresponding health policies. Cohort construction and research has an irreplaceable role in precise disease prevention and significant improvement in diagnosis and treatment levels. Large-scale cohort studies are needed to explore the relationship between potential risk factors and outcomes of TMJ diseases, and to observe disease prognoses through long-term follw-ups. The consensus aims to establish a standard conceptual frame work for a cohort study on patients with TMJ disease while providing ideas for cohort data standards to this condition. TMJ disease cohort data consists of both common data standards applicable to all specific disease cohorts as well as disease-specific data standards. Common data were available for each specific disease cohort. By integrating different cohort research resources, standard problems or study variables can be unified. Long-term follow-up can be performed using consistent definitions and criteria across different projects for better core data collection. It is hoped that this consensus will be facilitate the development cohort studies of TMJ diseases.

Objective:To investigate the effects of sperm DNA fragmentation index(DFI)on embryonic development and live birth outcomes of in vitro fertilization-fresh embryo transfer(IVF-ET).Methods:We selected 947 cases of IVF-ET due to female factors from June 2015 to December 2020 and,according to the DFI,divided them into a low-(DFI<15%),a medium-(15≤DFI≤30%)and a high-DFI(30%<DFI)group.We obtained the female factors(including age,body mass index[BMI],and base-line levels of sexual hormones and anti-Müllerian hormone[AMH]),male factors(including age,BMI,and semen parameters),pa-rameters of superovulation induction,semen parameters before and after IVF treatment,outcome of ovulation induction,embryo quality and pregnancy outcome,and compared them among the three groups.Results:The patients in the medium-and high-DFI groups had a significantly older age than those in the low-DFI group.There were statistically significant differences among the three groups in the baseline percentages of progressively motile sperm,non-progressively motile sperm and immotile sperm,and total sperm motility and progressive sperm motility before IVF(P<0.01).The baseline percentage of morphologically normal sperm,sperm concentration and total sperm count before IVF treatment,and sperm concentration after IVF treatment were significantly lower in the medium-and high-DFI groups than in the low-DFI group,and so was the total sperm count in the high-DFI than in the low-and medium-DFI groups either before or after semen treatment(P<0.01).The fertilization rate was also markedly lower in the medium-and high-DFI than in the low-DFI group,but no statistically significant differences were observed in ovulation induction parameters,embryo quality and pregnan-cy outcome among the three groups.Conclusion:High DFI significantly affects sperm motility.The DFI level after semen treatment is negatively correlated with sperm concentration,total sperm count and fertilization rate,but does not affect embryo quality and preg-nancy outcome.
