Objective To retrospectively analyze of factors influencing early preterm birth(EPB)and late preterm birth(LPB)in pregnancy women with placenta previa complicated by placenta accreta spectrum disorders(PAS),and assess maternal and infant outcomes.Methods We included 590 cases of pregnancy women with placenta previa complicated by PAS who underwent cesarean sections at five hospitals in Wuhan and Xianning cities between January 2018 and June 2021.These patients were divided into three groups based on delivery gesta-tional age:EPB,LPB,and term birth(TB).A multiple logistic regression model was employed to analyze the risk factors associated with EPB and LPB.Additionally,differences in early maternal and infant outcomes among these groups were examined.Results Among 590 pregnancy women with placenta previa complicated by PAS,the proportions of EPB and LPB were 9.7%and 54.4%.The use of uterine contraction inhibitors prior to cesarean section,vaginal bleeding,and previous cesarean sections history were identified as risk factors for both EPB and LPB.The proportion of severe postpartum hemorrhage was comparable between the EPB group and the LPB group;however,the incidence of neonatal asphyxia,low birth weight infants,and the rate of newborns transferred to the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit(NICU)within 24 hours after cesarean delivery were significantly higher in the EPB group compared to the LPB group.Conclusions Placenta previa complicated by PAS predominantly leads to LPB.The history of prior cesarean sections,uterine contractions,and vaginal bleeding prior to cesarean section,are sig-nificantly associated with both EPB and LPB.During the perinatal period,efforts should be made to extend gesta-tional weeks under close monitoring to minimize the incidence of premature births and thereby improve early mater-nal and infant outcomes.

Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is an effective therapy for the treatment of hematological benign and malignant tumors, but the occurrence of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) will affect the whole organs and tissues, causing serious damages to the patient's body.This not only seriously affects the life quality of patients, but also increases the mortality of patients after transplantation.Ocular GVHD is a manifestation of ocular rejection, and 60%-90% of patients with chronic GVHD are accompanied by ocular GVHD, the manifestations of which are dry eye, conjunctivitis, keratitis, and so on.Severe ocular GVHD can cause vision loss.But there is no unified treatment standard at present.The commonly used treatments include artificial tears, autologous serum eye drops, topical glucocorticoid, topical immunosuppressive agents, punctal occlusion, and contact lens wearing.The treatment progress of ocular GVHD was reviewed in this article.

Objective: To understand the prevalence of low vision among Tujia and Han children and adolescents in Tujia inhabited areas, and to provide reference for the prevention and control of myopia in children and adolescents in minority areas. Methods: A cluster sampling of Tujia and Han primary school students from two primary schools in Lichuan City, Enshi Tujia and Miao Autonomous Prefecture, Hubei Province (2 466 Tujia and 971 Han) were selected for visual acuity assessment. Univariate χ 2 test and multivariate Logistic analysis were used. Low vision and associated factors between Tujia and Han nationality were compared. Results: The overall detection rate of low vision among children and adolescents in Tujia inhabited areas was 44.9%. There were differences in the degree of low vision in the left and right eyes of individuals, and the detection rate of low vision varied significantly by ethnic, gender and grade ( χ 2=22.10, 18.43, 19.06, 17.97 for the left eye, 17.52, 20.44, 21.49, 18.61 for the right eye, P < 0.05). There were many factors affecting low vision among children and adolescents in Tujia inhabited areas, overweight and obesity were negatively associated with low vision ( OR=1.81, 1.70, 95%CI=1.76-1.92, 1.66-1.82, P <0.01). Conclusion Low vision is highly prevalent in Tujia children and adolescents. Effective intervention measures should be taken to treat and prevent myopia in children and adolescents.

Objective: To understand physical activity status of children and adolescents in Tujia inhabited areas, and to provide reference for the intervention model of physical activity of children and adolescents in minority areas. Methods: A cluster sample of 2 466 Tujia pupils from two primary schools in Lichuan City, Enshi Tujia and Miao Autonomous Prefecture of Hubei Province was selected to investigate physical activity status of Tujia pupils. The univariate χ 2 test was used to analyze the physical activity status of Tujia children and adolescents and its influencing factors. Results: The median duration of high intensity activity was 49.9 minutes/day in the last week, and 47.93% of participants met the physical activity standard( χ 2=80.47, P <0.01), the median duration of sitting was 396.1 minutes/day in the last week, and the qualified rate of screen time was 78.99%, and the differences of qualified rate between daystudents and residential students were of statistical differences( χ 2=35.12, P <0.01)). Conclusion The children and adolescents in the Tujia community are lack of physical activity. Therefore, it is necessary to take effective intervention measures to pay attention to the children and adolescents physical activity.

Objective:To investigate the reasons for efficacy heterogeneity analysis of 3 patients with pantothenate kinase associated neurodegeneration (PKAN) from one family after deep brain stimulation (DBS).Methods:Three PKAN patients with the same PANK2 gene mutation from one family, admitted to and accepted bilateral subthalamic nucleus (STN)-DBS in our hospital from May to August 2021, were selected. The clinical manifestations, including general condition, medical history, symptoms, and signs, of these 3 patients were collected; Burkefahn-Marsden Dystonia Movement Rating Scale (BFMDRS) scores and surface electromyography results were analyzed and compared before DBS and 2 weeks and 6 months after DBS. Results:The clinical phenotype of these 3 patients had obvious heterogeneity: patient 1 had the latest onset age and shortest duration, and the main manifestation included abnormal body activity and forced postures, without obvious body deformation; preoperative surface electromyography suggested that the involuntary muscle contractions intensity was the smallest, and involuntary movements characterized by alternating patterns of contractile discharge activity were the predominant. The patient 2 and patient 3 had early onset age and long course of disease with gradually aggravated disease, and manifested as lower limb claudication and involuntary limb torsion; patient 3 also had marked limb deformities; preoperative surface electromyography showed high intensity of involuntary muscle contraction and torsional spastic dystonia characterized by co-contractile firing activity. The BFMDRS scores and surface electromyography results of the 3 patients after DBS were significantly improved as compared with those before surgery, with obvious heterogeneity; the improvement rates of BFMDRS scores of patient 1, 2 and 3 were 88.1%, 60.5%, and 43.2%, and the improvement rates of surface electromyography were 82.36%, 63.79% and 72.25%, respectively,at 6 months after surgery as compared with those before surgery.Conclusion:PKAN exhibits complicated clinical heterogeneity, which is one of the reasons for efficacy heterogeneity for PKAN after DBS.

The outbreak of coronavirus disease (COVID-19) caused by SARS-CoV-2 virus continually lead to worldwide human infections and deaths. Currently, there is no specific viral protein-targeted therapeutics. Viral nucleocapsid protein is a potential antiviral drug target, serving multiple critical functions during the viral life cycle. However, the structural information of SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid protein remains unclear. Herein, we have determined the 2.7 Å crystal structure of the N-terminal RNA binding domain of SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid protein. Although the overall structure is similar as other reported coronavirus nucleocapsid protein N-terminal domain, the surface electrostatic potential characteristics between them are distinct. Further comparison with mild virus type HCoV-OC43 equivalent domain demonstrates a unique potential RNA binding pocket alongside the -sheet core. Complemented by binding studies, our data provide several atomic resolution features of SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid protein N-terminal domain, guiding the design of novel antiviral agents specific targeting to SARS-CoV-2.

Objective To study the effectiveness and safety of different endoscopic papillary balloon dilation time in treatment of common bile duct stones. Methods 45 patients with common bile duct stones received ERCP treat﹣ment, and they were randomly divided into short-term and long-term balloon dilatation group, then compared opera﹣tive time, intraoperative and postoperative complication rate, hospitalization days and the total cost of hospitalization between the two groups. Results Short-term group included 22 people, the long term group included 23 people, there were no significant difference in stones' size, number and diameter of common bile duct between the two groups (P> 0.05), however, the success rate of surgery, time of stones' extraction, intraoperative complications and postoperative fistula were significant differences (P<0.05). Conclusion Long-term balloon dilation during ERCP for treatment of common bile duct stones can improve the success rate of stone removal and reduce complications.

To obtain human antibodies against the Gn protein of Severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome virus (SFTSV) with phage display technology, this study aimed to screen anti-Gn protein antibodies from an anti-SFTSV Fab human phage display library. Antibody genes were identified by sequence analysis and the specificity of antibodies was confirmed by ELISA. The Fab antibody genes were cloned into the HL51-14 vector and expressed in a mammalian cell expression system. IgG antibodies were then purified by protein A affinity chromatography,and the results were further confirmed by ELISA,IFA,western blotting assays and micro-neutralization tests. The results showed that, after three rounds of panning, there were 390 human Fab antibodies against SFTSV particles, of which 364 were specific for nucleoprotein. Coated with the Gn protein, eight different Fab antibodies specific for Gn protein were obtained after the determination of the subtype and subclass of antibodies by gene sequencing; five of these antibodies were from the Lambda library and three were from the Kappa library. The eight IgG antibodies could specifically bind to Gn protein according to the ELISA, IFA and Western blotting assays. The micro-neutralization test showed that these eight antibodies had no neutralizing activity,but they could still provide a reference for research in human monoclonal antibodies against SFTSV.
