ObjectiveTo construct an animal model of respiratory syncytial virus（RSV）-infected pneumonia suitable for preclinical studies. MethodsThe virulence of RSV to the four cell lines was observed by cytopathic effect （CPE）， and 50% tissue culture infective dose（TCID₅₀） was calculated. Twenty BALB/c mice were randomly divided into a normal group and a model group. Six BALB/c-hIGF1R mice served as the humanized IGF1R model group. Except for the normal group， the other groups received intranasal RSV infection on days 1 and 3 to establish a viral pneumonia model. The efficacy of establishing an RSV-induced pneumonia animal model based on humanized insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor （IGF1R） mice was evaluated by measuring organ indices， peripheral blood lymphocyte percentages， pulmonary pathology and imaging， and pulmonary viral load. Additionally， ten BALB/c mice served as normal group， and thirty-two BALB/c-hIGF1R mice were randomly assigned to humanized IGF1R model group， ribavirin group （82.5 mg·kg^-¹·d^-¹）， and high and low dose groups of Lianhua Qingwen （3.3 mg·kg^-¹·d^-¹ ， 1.65 mg·kg^-¹·d^-¹）， with 8 mice per group. The viral load in lung tissue was measured after ribavirin and Lianhua Qingwen intervention， and the model was applied to the evaluation of anti-RSV drugs. ResultsIn the lungs of the humanized IGF1R model group， large solid and diffuse ground-glass shadows were seen， and the lung volume was significantly increased （P<0.01）. The lung index was significantly increased （P<0.01）， and both the spleen index and thymus index were significantly decreased （P<0.01）. The percentages of CD3⁺ and CD4⁺T cells were significantly decreased （P<0.05）， and there was a large amount of inflammation and stasis in the perivascular area of the lung tissue， which was predominantly characterized by lymphocytes. The endothelium of blood vessels was partially detached， with a small number of eosinophils. After infecting BALB/c-hIGF1R mice with RSV， the expression of viral nucleic acids in the lung tissue of the mice was significantly increased， with significant differences compared with the normal group （P<0.01）. The expression of viral nucleic acids in the ribavirin group and the high and low dose groups of Lianhua Qingwen was significantly reduced， with significant differences compared with the normal group （P<0.01）. ConclusionHumanized IGF1R mice are more susceptible to respiratory SVC， and the animal model of RSV-infected pneumonia based on humanized IGF1R mice was successfully constructed， which is suitable for the evaluation of anti-RSV drugs.

Abstract: Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), whose pathogenesis remains elusive, is a group of autoimmune diseases characterized by chronic, progressive, and lifelong inflammation of the digestive tract. The pathogenesis of IBD remains elusive. Although a number of drugs have been developed to treat IBD, their effects are merely anti-inflammatory. In addition, current treatments for IBD are easily susceptible to resistance in clinical practice. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have been reported to have the ability to migrate to the site of inflammation, with potent immunoregulatory effects, and to rebalance the immune microenvironment and restore the integrity of the epithelial barrier with significant value of application, particularly for patients who are refractory to classic medicines. In this paper, we reviewed the clinical applications, mechanisms and engineerable properties of MSC products and their exosomes to provide some reference for the use of MSCs and their exosomes in the treatment of IBD.

OBJECTIVE To explore the effects of letrozole combined with methylprednisolone on clinical outcomes， ovarian reserve function， serum sex hormones， and safety in infertile patients with polycystic ovary syndrome resistant to clomiphene. METHODS The clinical data of 78 infertile patients with polycystic ovary syndrome resistant to clomiphene in the Department of Gynecology of Qingdao Central Hospital from February 2021 to January 2022 was analyzed retrospectively， and all patients were divided into control group （42 cases） and observation group （36 cases） based on the treatment methods. The control group took letrozole 5 mg/d orally on the 5th to 9th day of the menstrual cycle. Vaginal ultrasound was used to monitor the development of the endometrium and follicles； estradiol valerate was used to correct endometrial thickness， and measures such as inducing ovulation with follicle-stimulating hormone were taken to promote pregnancy. On the basis of treatment in the control group， the observation group began taking methylprednisolone orally at a dose of 4 mg/d starting from the third day of natural menstruation or withdrawal bleeding. Both groups were treated for 6 menstrual cycles. The ovulation and pregnancy within one year， serum levels of sex hormones [estradiol （E2）， luteinizing hormone （LH）， follicle-stimulating hormone （FSH）， testosterone] and anti-Müllerian hormone （AMH）， ovulation indicators （follicle growth time， the number of ovulations， and the number of dominant follicles）， and the occurrence of adverse drug reactions were compared between the two groups. RESULTS After treatment， the biochemical pregnancy rate （72.22%） and clinical pregnancy rate （47.22%） of the observation group were significantly higher than those of control group （47.62%， 19.05%）； the serum levels of E2， LH， FSH， testosterone and AMH were significantly lower than the control group； the follicle growth time was significantly shorter than the control group； the number of ovulation and dominant follicles were significantly higher than the control group （P＜0.05）. There was no statistically significant difference in ovulation rate （94.44% vs. 83.33%） and total incidence of adverse drug reactions （8.33% vs. 9.52%） between the observation group and the control group （P＞0.05）. CONCLUSIONS Compared with letrozole alone， the combination of letrozole and methylprednisolone can significantly improve the pregnancy rate， the sex hormone levels and ovarian reserve function in infertile patients with polycystic ovary syndrome resistant to clomiphene， with high safety profiles.

Objective The purpose of this study was to investigate the bacterial communities of biting midges and ticks collected from three sites in the Poyang Lake area,namely,Qunlu Practice Base,Peach Blossom Garden,and Huangtong Animal Husbandry,and whether vectors carry any bacterial pathogens that may cause diseases to humans,to provide scientific basis for prospective pathogen discovery and disease prevention and control. Methods Using a metataxonomics approach in concert with full-length 16S rRNA gene sequencing and operational phylogenetic unit(OPU)analysis,we characterized the species-level microbial community structure of two important vector species,biting midges and ticks,including 33 arthropod samples comprising 3,885 individuals,collected around Poyang Lake. Results A total of 662 OPUs were classified in biting midges,including 195 known species and 373 potentially new species,and 618 OPUs were classified in ticks,including 217 known species and 326 potentially new species.Surprisingly,OPUs with potentially pathogenicity were detected in both arthropod vectors,with 66 known species of biting midges reported to carry potential pathogens,including Asaia lannensis and Rickettsia bellii,compared to 50 in ticks,such as Acinetobacter lwoffii and Staphylococcus sciuri.We found that Proteobacteria was the most dominant group in both midges and ticks.Furthermore,the outcomes demonstrated that the microbiota of midges and ticks tend to be governed by a few highly abundant bacteria.Pantoea sp7 was predominant in biting midges,while Coxiella sp1 was enriched in ticks.Meanwhile,Coxiella spp.,which may be essential for the survival of Haemaphysalis longicornis Neumann,were detected in all tick samples.The identification of dominant species and pathogens of biting midges and ticks in this study serves to broaden our knowledge associated to microbes of arthropod vectors. Conclusion Biting midges and ticks carry large numbers of known and potentially novel bacteria,and carry a wide range of potentially pathogenic bacteria,which may pose a risk of infection to humans and animals.The microbial communities of midges and ticks tend to be dominated by a few highly abundant bacteria.

【Objective】 To explore the relationship between polygenic risk score (PRS) and the sustainability of childhood obesity intervention, in order to provide scientific basis for future sustainable and personalized childhood obesity intervention based on genetic background. 【Methods】 A total of 148 children with overweight/obesity at baseline were selected as study subjects from a cluster randomized controlled trial (September 2018 to April 2021) regarding the effect of a childhood obesity intervention in Beijing, China. Saliva was collected to detect the whole genome sequencing. Four PRSs were built: weighted and unweighted PRS69, weighted and unweighted PRS67. The interactions between PRS and study arms on the sustainability of intervention effect (the changes in obesity-related indicators between the end of the intervention and the last follow-up) were analyzed. 【Results】 There were interactions between PRS and study arms on the rebound degree of waist circumference adjusted for body mass index (BMI), waist-to-hip ratio adjusted for BMI, and systolic blood pressure after the intervention. Compared with the control group, children in the intervention group carried each additional unit (standard deviation) of weighted PRS69, the waist circumference adjusted for BMI rebounded more by 0.34 (95%CI: 0.05 - 0.63, P=0.020), and waist-to-hip ratio adjusted for BMI rebounded more by 0.29 (95%CI: 0.03 - 0.56, P=0.031) at the last follow-up survey. When children in the intervention group carried each additional unit (standard deviation) of weighted PRS67 and unweighted PRS67, systolic blood pressure at the last follow-up survey rebounded more by 3.58 (95%CI:0.50 - 6.66, P=0.023) and 3.75 (95%CI: 0.78 - 6.71, P=0.014), respectively. 【Conclusions】 The higher PRS (the more risk alleles) children with overweight/obesity carried, their waist circumference, waist-to-hip ratio and systolic blood pressure are more likely to rebound after the intervention. Findings from this study suggest that future studies should focus more on these high-risk children after the intervention to prevent and control obesity rebound.

Objective To explore the correlation between healthcare-associated infection(HAI)and partial inde-xes in the diagnosis-related groups(DRGs)of patients in thoracic surgery intensive care unit(ICU).Methods DRGs,case mix index(CMI),relative weight(RW),and HAI of patients in thoracic surgery ICU and four subspe-cialty departments(pulmonary surgery group,esophageal surgery group,mediastinum group[mainly thymic sur-gery],and trachea group)in a tertiary chest hospital in Shanghai from January to December 2022 were retrospec-tively analyzed and compared through DRGs index grouping.Results A total of 1 429 patients in the department of thoracic surgery ICU were analyzed,including 59 HAI cases,with a HAI rate of 4.13％.The incidences of HAI in pulmonary surgery group,esophageal surgery group,mediastinum group and trachea group were 3.74％(30/803),5.84％(25/428),1.27％(2/157)and 4.88％(2/41),respectively.There was no statistically significant differ-ence in the incidences of HAI among different subspecialty groups(P＞0.05).A total of 35 DRGs were involved,with CMI of 2.75,3.41,2.35 and 1.25 in pulmonary surgery group,esophageal surgery group,mediastinum group and trachea group,respectively,and RW ranged from 0.53 to 12.62.In the pulmonary surgery group,inci-dence of HAI in male patients was higher than that in female patients.Higher RW score level was associated with higher incidence of HAI.Differences were all statistically significant(all P 0.05).Among patients in the esophageal surgery group,the age of HAI group was higher than that of the non-HAI group(P＜0.05).Higher RW score level was associated with higher incidence of HAI(P＜0.05).Among patients in the mediastinum sur-gery group,the age of patients in the infected group was higher than that in the non-infected group(P＜0.05).Among the 59 HAI cases,31 were infected with MDROs.Conclusion Focusing on CMI and RW in the DRGs in-dex system,analyzing HAI from the perspectives of disease complexity and overall technical difficulties of medical services can provide reference for the precise management of HAI in the new era.

Objective To develop a health-promoting lifestyle scale for women with polycystic ovary syndrome(PCOS),and to test its reliability and validity,and preliminarily apply it.Methods Based on the Pender health promotion model,the item pool of the scale was constructed through literature research,semi-structured interviews and group discussions.After 2 rounds of Delphi expert consultation and pre-survey,the initial scale was formed.From April to July 2022,316 patients with PCOS in the health management center,reproductive medicine center and endocrinology department of a tertiary hospital in Nanjing were selected for item analysis,exploratory factor analysis and reliability test,respectively.From August to October 2022,358 PCOS patients were selected for confirmatory factor analysis.From November 2022 to February 2013,294 PCOS patients were selected,and the scale was used to investigate the status of health-promoting lifestyle in PCOS patients.Results The health-promoting lifestyle scale for PCOS patients included 5 dimensions and 33 items.The total content validity index of the scale was 0.942,and the content validity index of each item was 0.810-1.000.5 common factors were extracted by 2 exploratory factor analyses,and the cumulative variance contribution rate was 62.399％.Confirmatory factor analysis showed that the model fit was good.The Cronbach's a coefficient of the total scale was 0.930;the split-half reliability was 0.842;the test-retest reliability was 0.888.The preliminary application results showed that the total score of health-promoting lifestyle in PCOS patients was(96.925±14.273),and the average score of items was(2.937±0.433),which was at a medium level.Conclusion The health-promoting lifestyle scale for PCOS patients has good reliability and validity,which can be used as a tool for medical staff to assess the level of health-promoting lifestyle of PCOS patients,and can help nurses to quickly identify the level and dimensions of health-promoting lifestyle of patients,so as to formulate individualized precise health management plans.

【Objective】 To explore the effect of autologous platelet-rich plasma(PRP) in the treatment of dry eye syndrome. 【Methods】 A total of 64 patients with dry eye treated in the Ophthalmology Department of Jingdong Sino-American Hospital of Hebei Province from March to November 2023 were randomly selected for the study. The patients were divided into observation group and control group according to the random number table method, with 32 cases and 64 eyes in each group. The control group was treated with artificial tears of polyvinyl alcohol without preservatives, and the observation group was treated with PRP eye drops. The clinical efficacy and adverse reactions of the two groups were compared. Overall efficacy, duration of symptom resolution, ocular surface disease index (OSDI), tear film break up time (TBUT), schirmer's test(St) and corneal fluorescein staining (CFS) results of the two groups were observed and compared in 4 weeks. 【Results】 After 4 weeks of treatment, the total effective rate of observation group was 96.88%(31/32), which was significantly higher than that of control group 84.38%(27/32), with statistical significance (P<0.05). After treatment, the St, TBUT, CFS, OSDI and lacrimal river height in observation group were significantly superior to control group, with statistical significance (P<0.05). The disappearance time of dryness, visual fatigue and foreign body sensation in the observation group was shorter than that in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). The incidence of adverse reactions in the observation group was 46.875%(15/32), and there was no significant difference between the observation group and the control group. 【Conclusion】 Autologous PRP is an effective and safe choice for the treatment of dry eye syndrome, which is worthy of further study and confirmation.

Objective:To investigate the risk factors of cognitive dysfunction and its relationship with poor prognosis in elderly hypertensive patients with frailty.Methods:A total of 150 elderly hypertensive patients with frailty trea-ted in Eighth People's Hospital of Hebei Province from July 2019 to March 2021 were selected.According to pres-ence of cognitive dysfunction,they were divided into normal cognition group(n=92)and cognitive dysfunction group(n=58),and general data and prognosis condition were collected in two groups.Multivariate Logistic regres-sion analysis was used to analyze the risk factors of cognitive dysfunction in elderly hypertensive patients with frail-ty;Spearman correlation analysis was used to analyze the correlation between cognitive dysfunction degree and prog-nosis.Results:Compared with normal cognition group,cognitive dysfunction group was significantly older and pos-sessed significant higher proportions of diabetes,coronary heart disease,stroke,hyponatremia,multiple medication and malnutrition(P＜0.05 or＜0.01).Multivariate Logistic regression analysis indicated that age ≥75 years,stroke,multiple medication and malnutrition were independent risk factors for cognitive dysfunction in elderly hy-pertensive patients with frailty(OR=2.804～6.434,P＜0.05 or＜0.01).Incidence rate of poor prognosis events in cognitive dysfunction group was significantly higher than that of normal cognition group(51.72％vs.11.96％,P＜0.001).Spearman correlation analysis showed that cognitive dysfunction was significant positively correlated with poor prognosis in these patients(r=0.435,P＜0.001).Conclusion:Age,stroke,multiple medication and malnu-trition are independent risk factors for cognitive dysfunction in elderly hypertensive patients with frailty.Cognitive dysfunction is closely related to poor prognosis in these patients.
