ObjectiveThis study leverages structural data from antigen-antibody complexes of the influenza A virus neuraminidase (NA) protein to investigate the spatial recognition relationship between the antigenic epitopes and antibody paratopes. MethodsStructural data on NA protein antigen-antibody complexes were comprehensively collected from the SAbDab database, and processed to obtain the amino acid sequences and spatial distribution information on antigenic epitopes and corresponding antibody paratopes. Statistical analysis was conducted on the antibody sequences, frequency of use of genes, amino acid preferences, and the lengths of complementarity determining regions (CDR). Epitope hotspots for antibody binding were analyzed, and the spatial structural similarity of antibody paratopes was calculated and subjected to clustering, which allowed for a comprehensively exploration of the spatial recognition relationship between antigenic epitopes and antibodies. The specificity of antibodies targeting different antigenic epitope clusters was further validated through bio-layer interferometry (BLI) experiments. ResultsThe collected data revealed that the antigen-antibody complex structure data of influenza A virus NA protein in SAbDab database were mainly from H3N2, H7N9 and H1N1 subtypes. The hotspot regions of antigen epitopes were primarily located around the catalytic active site. The antibodies used for structural analysis were primarily derived from human and murine sources. Among murine antibodies, the most frequently used V-J gene combination was IGHV1-12*01/IGHJ2*01, while for human antibodies, the most common combination was IGHV1-69*01/IGHJ6*01. There were significant differences in the lengths and usage preferences of heavy chain CDR amino acids between antibodies that bind within the catalytic active site and those that bind to regions outside the catalytic active site. The results revealed that structurally similar antibodies could recognize the same epitopes, indicating a specific spatial recognition between antibody and antigen epitopes. Structural overlap in the binding regions was observed for antibodies with similar paratope structures, and the competitive binding of these antibodies to the epitope was confirmed through BLI experiments. ConclusionThe antigen epitopes of NA protein mainly ditributed around the catalytic active site and its surrounding loops. Spatial complementarity and electrostatic interactions play crucial roles in the recognition and binding of antibodies to antigenic epitopes in the catalytic region. There existed a spatial recognition relationship between antigens and antibodies that was independent of the uniqueness of antibody sequences, which means that antibodies with different sequences could potentially form similar local spatial structures and recognize the same epitopes.

Background Air pollution has gradually become a major environmental and public health problem faced by countries around the world. Hazy weather not only affects the health of the population, but also poses a threat to social and public safety. China has successively promulgated policies such as the "Ten Articles on Atmosphere" and the Three-year action plan to fight air pollution, aiming to improve ambient air quality. It is clear that the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region has accomplished the set targets and improved air quality according to the environmental monitoring data of 2017. Objective To assess air quality improvements through the evaluation of the disease burden due to fine particulate matter (PM_2.5) pollution in Shijiazhuang City before and after the air quality improvement from 2014 to 2021, including fatalities and health economic losses attributed to PM_2.5 pollution. Methods Data on causes of death, PM_2.5 concentrations, the number of permanent residents at the end of the year, gross regional product, and disposable income per capita in urban areas of Shijiazhuang were collected from 2014 to 2021. Total, non-accidental, circulatory, and respiratory deaths due to PM_2.5 pollution were estimated by global exposure mortality models (GEMM). Health and economic losses due to selected diseases were calculated by value of statistical life (VOSL). Results During the study period, the average annual concentration of PM_2.5 in Shijiazhuang was highest in 2014, and began to decline year by year in 2017, but all exceeded the current national limit of the second level of ambient air quality standards (35 μg·m⁻³). The total deaths, non-accidental deaths, circulatory disease deaths, and respiratory disease deaths attributed to PM_2.5 pollution from 2014 to 2021 were 41326, 40246, 21792, and 5022, respectively; the associated health economic losses were 37.362, 36.369, 19.695, and 4.535 billion yuan, respectively. From the perspective of improved air quality, both the number of attributed deaths and health economic losses had declined in a volatile manner since 2017, with a significant decrease in 2019. If the average annual concentration of PM_2.5 reached the second-level limit of China's ambient air quality standard (35 μg·m⁻³), the total deaths, non-accidental deaths, and deaths from circulatory diseases and respiratory diseases due to PM_2.5 pollution would deducted by about 17000, 16000, 9000, and 2000, respectively; the corresponding health and economic losses would decreased by 15.201, 14.761, 7.959, and 1.859 billion yuan, respectively. If the average annual concentration of PM_2.5 reached the latest PM_2.5 air quality guidelines (5 μg·m⁻³) proposed by the World Health Organization, the total deaths, non-accidental deaths, circulatory disease deaths, and respiratory disease deaths due to PM_2.5 pollution would deducted by 36000, 35000, 19000, and 4000, respectively, and the corresponding health and economic losses would reduced by 32.673, 31.796, 17.211, and 3.969 billion yuan, respectively. Conclusion PM_2.5 pollution can lead to severe mortality burden and economic loss. Under the implementation of the State Council's "Ten Articles on Atmosphere" and the Three-year action plan to fight air pollution, Shijiazhuang's PM_2.5 concentration and health economic losses have been significantly reduced, and further control of PM_2.5 pollution can achieve greater health benefits and economic gains, affirming the positive results of local air pollution prevention work.

Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) combined with lower cervical fracture is often categorized into unstable fracture, with a high incidence of neurological injury and a high rate of disability and morbidity. As factors such as shoulder occlusion may affect the accuracy of X-ray imaging diagnosis, it is often easily misdiagnosed at the primary diagnosis. Non-operative treatment has complications such as bone nonunion and the possibility of secondary neurological damage, while the timing, access and choice of surgical treatment are still controversial. Currently, there are no clinical practice guidelines for the treatment of AS combined with lower cervical fracture with or without dislocation. To this end, the Spinal Trauma Group of Orthopedics Branch of Chinese Medical Doctor Association organized experts to formulate Clinical guidelines for the treatment of ankylosing spondylitis combined with lower cervical fracture in adults ( version 2024) in accordance with the principles of evidence-based medicine, scientificity and practicality, in which 11 recommendations were put forward in terms of the diagnosis, imaging evaluation, typing and treatment, etc, to provide guidance for the diagnosis and treatment of AS combined with lower cervical fracture.

Objective To investigate the risk factors of hip osteoarthritis(HOA)after hip arthroscopy in patients with femoro-acetabular impingement(FAI)syndrome,and to reduce and prevent HOA.Methods From September 2018 to Septem-ber 2020,106 patients with FAI underwent hip arthroscopy,including 40 males and 66 females,aged from 20 to 55 years old with an average age of(33.05±10.19)years old.The mechanism of injury included 51 cases for sports injury,36 for traffic ac-cidents,and 19 for blunt object injury.The duration of the disease ranged from 5 to 19 days with an average of(12.02±3.69)days.All patients were followed up for 18 months.Patients were divided into HOA group(23 cases)and non-HOA group(83 cases)according to the occurrence of HOA.Multivariate Logistic regression was used to analyze the risk factors of HOA after hip arthroscopy in FAI patients.Results By univariate analysis,aged from 50 to 70 years old,female,body mass index(BMI)＞30 kg·m-2,physical labor,cam type,postoperative infection,last follow-up hip degree of motion(range of motion,ROM)(flex-ion,abduction,adduction,internal rotation)and T?nnis grade 1 and above of the HOA group were higher than those of the non-HOA group(P＜0.05),and the relative appendicular skeletal muscle index(RASM)was lower than that of non-HOA group(P＜0.05).By multiple Logistic regression analysis,cam type,BMI＞30 kg·m-2,last follow-up hip internal rotation ROM and T?nnis grade 1 were risk factors for HOA after hip arthroscopy in FAI patients(P＜0.05).Conclusion FAI classification,body mass index,hip ROM and T?nnis grade are all related to HOA after hip arthroscopy in FAI patients.Follow-up and intervention should be strengthened in high-risk FAI patients to reduce the occurrence of HOA.

[Objective] To investigate the functional differences and potential effects of chromatin spatial structure in patients with normal karyotype and complex karyotype multiple myeloma. [Methods] High-throughput chromosome conformational capture (Hi-C) analysis was performed on plasma cells of 1 case with 1q21 complex karyotype and 1 case with normal karyotype multiple myeloma, and the differences in three-dimensional genome structure between the two patients were analyzed, and the transcriptome characteristics of plasma cells were combined to investigate the differential features through gene functional enrichment. [Results] A/B switch occurred in 36% of the chromatin compartments in two cases, and 1 041 genes in patient with complex karyotype had B/A switch. About 3 500 topological association domains (TADs) were identified in each sample, and there was no significant difference. The number of loops identified in complex karyotype sample was 1 069, which was 1/6 of the normal sample, and there were significant differences in the number of three different types of loops, which to some extent reflected the loss of genome stability. Transcriptome analysis showed significant differences in expression profiles between the two patients, and a total of 6 150 differentially expressed genes (3 303 up-regulated genes and 2 847 down-regulated genes) were identified. [Conclusion] Compared with patient with normal karyotype, patient with 1q21 complex karyotype multiple myeloma exhibit significant changes in the spatial structure of plasma cell chromatin at different levels, which leads to changes in gene expression and activation of pathways related to cancer progression.

Aim To investigate the promotional effects of neutrophil extracellular traps(NETs)on renal tissue damage and intestinal flora disruption induced by dia-betic kidney disease(DKD)and the potential mecha-nisms.Methods C57BL/6 mice were divided into:control group(NC),DNase Ⅰ control group(DNase Ⅰ)diabetic nephropathy group(DKD),and DNase Ⅰ treated group(DKD+DNase Ⅰ).The pathological changes of mouse kidney were observed by PAS,MAS-SON,and HE staining.The expression and distribu-tion of the relevant proteins of NETs in renal tissue of the mice in each group were observed by immunohisto-chemistry.The expression and distribution of coke-death-related proteins in the kidney tissues of mice in each group were observed by immunohistochemistry.The protein expression of NETs-related indexes,focal death-related indexes and NF-κB signaling pathway-re-lated indexes in kidney tissue of mice in each group were detected by immunoblotting.Results The ex-pression of indicators related to NETs was elevated in the DKD group,and their expression decreased after degradation of NETs by DNase Ⅰ(P＜0.01).Patho-logical staining results showed that the kidneys of DKD mice were structurally abnormal,and the structure was improved after degradation of NETs by DNase Ⅰ.The results of immunohistochemical staining and immunob-lotting showed that the expression of pyroptosis-related proteins in kidney tissues of mice in the DKD group was elevated compared with that in the control group(P＜0.01).NF-κB-related signaling pathway protein expression profile expression rose,and its expression decreased after degradation of NETs by DNase Ⅰ(P＜0.01)Conclusions NETs are generated in diabetic nephropathy and promote the onset of renal focal death and activation of the NF-κB signaling pathway,thereby exacerbating diabetes-induced kidney injury.

Traumatic supraorbital fissure syndrome (TSOFS) is a symptom complex caused by nerve entrapment in the supraorbital fissure after skull base trauma. If the compressed cranial nerve in the supraorbital fissure is not decompressed surgically, ptosis, diplopia and eye movement disorder may exist for a long time and seriously affect the patients′ quality of life. Since its overall incidence is not high, it is not familiarized with the majority of neurosurgeons and some TSOFS may be complicated with skull base vascular injury. If the supraorbital fissure surgery is performed without treatment of vascular injury, it may cause massive hemorrhage, and disability and even life-threatening in severe cases. At present, there is no consensus or guideline on the diagnosis and treatment of TSOFS that can be referred to both domestically and internationally. To improve the understanding of TSOFS among clinical physicians and establish standardized diagnosis and treatment plans, the Skull Base Trauma Group of the Neurorepair Professional Committee of the Chinese Medical Doctor Association, Neurotrauma Group of the Neurosurgery Branch of the Chinese Medical Association, Neurotrauma Group of the Traumatology Branch of the Chinese Medical Association, and Editorial Committee of Chinese Journal of Trauma organized relevant experts to formulate Chinese expert consensus on the diagnosis and treatment of traumatic supraorbital fissure syndrome ( version 2024) based on evidence of evidence-based medicine and clinical experience of diagnosis and treatment. This consensus puts forward 12 recommendations on the diagnosis, classification, treatment, efficacy evaluation and follow-up of TSOFS, aiming to provide references for neurosurgeons from hospitals of all levels to standardize the diagnosis and treatment of TSOFS.

Abstract: Objective　In order to provide reference for emergency treatment of a sudden food poisoning incident, pathogen detection and drug resistance analysis were carried out. Methods　Diarrheal stool and surplus food samples were detected by GB 4789 and the isolates were identified by VITEK2 and matrix assisted laser desorption ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS), at the same time, the bacterial drug sensitivity test was carried out by using the method of microbroth dilution, and the isolates from different sources were molecularly classified by pulsed field gel electrophoresis (PFGE), and the correlation between the strains was analyzed by BioNumerics software. Results　Totaly 13 leftovers and 3 diarrhea patients were isolated and identified, The total number of colonies and coliforms in 7 leftovers samples all exceeded the standard, and Citrobacter freundii was detected in 5 leftovers and 2 stools. The results of drug sensitivity test showed that seven strains of Citrobacter freundii were sensitive to ciprofloxacin, tetracycline, chloramphenicol, gentamicin, amikacin, cefotaxime and meropenem, but completely resistant to ampicillin, and there was no multiple drug resistance. The results of pulsed field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) showed that 7 strains of Citrobacter freundii had the same PFGE bands and 100% homology, showing the same clone. Conclusions　This food poisoning incident was caused by Citrobacter freundii. The pathogen of food poisoning can be quickly and accurately determined by MALDI-TOF MS, which is beneficial to the early diagnosis and treatment of infectious diseases. It is suggested to strengthen the corresponding management, improve food safety awareness and prevent similar incidents.
