ObjectiveTo investigate and analyze an outbreak of rotavirus infectious diarrhea in a prison in Chongqing Municipality, to provide a basis for adult rotavirus surveillance and prevention, and to explore the public health problems in special settings. MethodsA retrospective survey was conducted to collect and analyze data on individual cases with diarrheal disease on-site. The clinical characteristics, as well as the temporal, spatial and geographical distribution patterns of the epidemic were described. Multi-pathogen detection tests were conducted both on diarrhea cases and environmental samples, with viral genotyping performed on positive samples. A case-control analysis was performed to identify the causes of the outbreak, and an SEIR model was adopted to predict the outbreak trend and evaluate the effectiveness of interventions. ResultsA total of 65 cases were found among the inmates, with an attack rate of 2.03%. The predominant clinical manifestations included diarrhea (89.23%), watery stool (73.85%), and dehydration (18.46%). The epidemic curve indicated a “human-to-human” transmission pattern, with an average incubation period of 5‒6 days. The attack rates among chefs in the main canteen (80.00%, 8/10) and caterers (28.33%, 17/60) were significantly higher than those of other inmates （P<0.05）. Multi-pathogen polymerase chain reaction (PCR) testing detected positive for group A rotavirus, with the viral genotyping identified as G9P [8] strain. Factors such as unprotected "bare-handed" food distribution among cases with diarrhea (OR=9.512, 95%CI: 4.261‒21.234) and close contact with diarrhea cases (OR=3.656, 95%CI: 1.719‒7.778) were the possible cause of the outbreak. The SEIR model (r₀=5, α=0.3, β₁=0.08, β₂=0.04) was constructed using prison inmates as susceptible population, aiming at fitting the initial transmission trend of the outbreak, and the epidemic rate declined rapidly after intervention measures were implemented (r_t≈0). ConclusionThis rare rotavirus infection diarrhea outbreak among adults in confined settings suggests that the construction of public health prevention and control systems in prison may be overlooked. Cross infection during meal processing and distribution in the canteens of such settings is likely to be the cause of the outbreak. Given the potential neglect of public heath system construction in special settings, it is imperative to enhance the surveillance and monitoring of rotavirus and other intestinal multi-pathogens among adults, as well as the construction of public health prevention and control systems in these special settings.

Objective:To observe the regulatory effect of microRNA-10b(miR-10b)on the immune effect of glioma cells and explore its mechanism.Methods:Human glioma cell U251 was cultured to obtain cells in logarithmic growth stage.The cell suspen-sion was prepared according to the concentration of 1.0×105 cells/ml,and the control group,overexpression group,low expression group and blank group were set up,with 6 wells in each group.The negative control,miR-10b mimics and miR-10b inhibitor were transfected by liposome transfection in control group,overexpression group and low expression group,respectively.The blank group was given the same amount of sterile normal saline.Natural killer(NK)cells from peripheral blood of a healthy volunteer was isolated and cultured.The killing activity of NK cells was detected by MTT method.The expression of NK cell activated receptor(NKG2D)on the surface of NK cells in each group were detected by flow cytometry,and the expression of major histocompatibility complex class Ⅰ chain-related gene A(MICA),UL16 binding protein 2(ULBP2)and UL16 binding protein 3(ULBP3)on the surface of U251 hu-man glioma cells in each group were detected.Results:The transfection efficiency of control group,overexpression group and low ex-pression group were(93.55±2.05)％,(95.67±3.14)％,(94.18±3.26)％,respectively.Compared with control group and blank group,the expression of miR-10b increased in overexpression group and decreased in low expression group,and the difference were statisti-cally significant(P<0.05).There was no significant difference in the expression of miR-10b between control group and blank group(P>0.05).Compared with control group and blank group,the killing activity of NK cells with different effect target ratios in overex-pression group decreased,the expression of NKG2D decreased,the killing activity of NK cells with different effect target ratios in low expression group increased,and the expression of NKG2D increased,and the difference were statistically significant(P<0.05).The killing activity of NK cells in each group increased with the increase of effect target ratio,and the difference were statistically signifi-cant(P<0.05),and there was no significant difference in NK cell killing activity and NKG2D expression between control group and blank group(P>0.05).Compared with control group and blank group,the expression of MICA,ULBP2 and ULBP3 on the surface of human glioma cell U251 in overexpression group decreased,and the expression of MICA,ULBP2 and ULBP3 on the surface of human glioma cell U251 in low expression group increased,the difference were statistically significant(P<0.05),and there was no signifi-cant difference in the expression of MICA,ULBP2 and ULBP3 on the surface of U251 glioma cells between control group and blank group(P>0.05).Conclusion:Inhibiting the expression of miR-10b can increase the expression of NKG2D on the surface of NK cells and MICA,ULBP2 and ULBP3 on the surface of human glioma cell U251,and enhance the killing activity of NK cells against human glioma cell U251.

ObjectiveTo investigate the clinical features and outcomes of critically ill pregnant and parturient women with chronic hepatitis B virus （HBV） infection， and to provide clinical experience for the rescue of critically ill pregnant and parturient women and the prevention and treatment of the severe exacerbation of liver disease. MethodsA total of 41 pregnant and parturient women with chronic HBV infection who were admitted to Department of Critical Care Medicine， Nanjing Second Hospital， from March 2013 to March 2023 were enrolled in this study， and their clinical data were collected through the electronic medical record system of hospital to summarize the main causes of transfer to the intensive care unit （ICU）， the causes of death， and treatment. The independent-samples t test was used for comparison of normally distributed continuous data between two groups， and the Mann-Whitney U test was used for comparison of non-normally distributed continuous data between two groups. The chi-square test was used for comparison of categorical data between two groups. ResultsAmong the 41 patients， 13 （31.71%） did not receive regular antenatal examination and 8 （19.51%） with a high viral load （HBV DNA ≥2×10⁵ IU/mL） did not receive antiviral therapy. Cesarean section was the main mode of delivery in 32 patients （78.05%）； 23 patients （56.10%） had premature delivery， and 5 patients died （12.20%）. The top three causes of transfer to the ICU were liver failure， postpartum hemorrhage， and hypertensive disorders of pregnancy. Liver failure mainly occurred in late pregnancy， with hepatic encephalopathy as the most common complication （28.57%） and intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy as the most common comorbidity （21.43%）； among the 14 patients with liver failure， 6 （42.86%） received regular antenatal examination， and 13 （92.86%） did not receive antiviral therapy before admission. The mean length of ICU stay was 3.31±1.65 days for the patients with postpartum hemorrhage， among whom the patients with severe liver disease had coagulation disorders before delivery， which were difficult to correct after 48 hours of treatment. ConclusionPregnant and parturient women with chronic HBV infection tend to have complex conditions and a relatively high mortality rate. For pregnant and parturient women with chronic HBV infection， assessment of liver status， regular antenatal examination， and timely antiviral therapy are of vital importance to reduce severe exacerbation and mortality rate.
