Inactivated influenza vaccine formulated with single-stranded RNA-based adjuvant confers mucosal immunity and cross-protection against influenza virus infection

Influenza vaccination is considered the most valuable means to prevent and control seasonal influenza infections, which causes various clinical symptoms, ranging from mild cough and fever to even death. Among various influenza vaccine types, the inactivated subunit type is known to provide improved safety with reduced reactogenicity. However, there are some drawbacks associated with inactivated subunit type vaccines, with the main ones being its low immunogenicity and the induction of Th2-biased immune responses. In this study, we investigated the role of a single-stranded RNA (ssRNA) derived from the intergenic region in the internal ribosome entry site of the Cricket paralysis virus as an adjuvant rather than the universal vaccine for a seasonal inactivated subunit influenza vaccine. The ssRNA adjuvant stimulated not only well-balanced cellular (indicated by IgG2a, IFN-γ, IL-2, and TNF-α) and humoral (indicated by IgG1 and IL-4) immune responses but also a mucosal immune response (indicated by IgA), a key protector against respiratory virus infections. It also increases the HI titer, the surrogate marker of influenza vaccine efficacy. Furthermore, ssRNA adjuvant confers cross-protective immune responses against heterologous influenza virus infection while promoting enhanced viral clearance. Moreover, ssRNA adjuvant increases the number of memory CD4⁺ and CD8⁺ T cells, which can be expected to induce long-term immune responses. Therefore, this ssRNA-adjuvanted seasonal inactivated subunit influenza vaccine might be the best influenza vaccine generating robust humoral and cellular immune responses and conferring cross-protective and long-term immunity.     

南充市自发性脑出血发病与气温的相关性及滞后效应

目的分析南充市自发性脑出血（sICH）发病与气温的相关性及滞后关系。 方法收集南充市全市范围内二级以上医院2014年1月至2018年12月收治的sICH患者病例资料及同期气温数据，利用Spearman等级相关法确定最佳温度指标，将其组建分布滞后非线性模型，评估其与sICH日发病风险的暴露-剂量反应关系，分层分析各温度节点在性别及年龄组别的滞后-剂量反应关系。 结果共收集sICH患者资料13 952例。Spearman相关性分析揭示sICH日发病人数与日均气温呈非线性负相关（r=-0.324，P<0.05）。分布滞后非线性模型分析结果表明极低温和低温当天sICH的相对危险度为1.68（1.35~2.08）及1.47（1.24~1.72），危害效应最大，其随着滞后天数增加而减弱，极低温滞后1~2 d，低温持续滞后1~10 d。低龄组（18~60岁）在极低温、低温下滞后2 d，高龄组（>60岁）在极低温下滞后10 d，低温下滞后24 d。不同性别组在极低温、低温下滞后效应趋势一致，随滞后天数增加风险下降。 结论低温增加sICH发病风险，早期呈明显急性影响，且具有滞后效应，老年人对低温反应更加滞后。     

Skin temperature and vascular attributes as early warning signs of pressure injury

ObjectivesThis study aimed to validate the skin temperature on sacral region and vascular attributes as early warning signs of pressure injury.MethodsTotally 415 patients admitted to the adult intensive care unit from August 2018 to April 2019 were prospectively screened. Daily blood pressure and blood glucose affecting vascular attributes and the relative skin temperature of sacral region were measured for 10 consecutive days. Collect the changes of these indicators during the occurrence of pressure injury. The optimal cut-off values of indicators were determined by X-tile analysis. The risk ratios of indicators associated with pressure injury were compared using the Cox proportional hazards regression model.ResultsThere were no obvious interactions among blood pressure, blood glucose and relative skin temperature (P > 0.05). The optimal cutoff value for above indicators was 63.5 mmHg, 9.9 mmol/L and −0.1 °C, respectively. The incidence of pressure injury peaked on the 4th and 5th day after hospitalization when categorizing the patients into low- and high-risk groups according to the cutoff values (P < 0.05). Based on relative skin temperature, patients in the high-risk group were more likely to develop pressure injury (hazard ratio = 6.36, 95% confidence interval = 3.91, 10.36), when compared to the other two indicators of blood pressure and blood glucose.ConclusionStringent skin temperature and vascular attributes measurements were necessary for preventing pressure injury. Nursing measures should be taken according to warning sings to reduce the incidence of pressure injury.     

气象因素对钉螺密度变化的影响分析

目的 研究自然条件下气象因素对钉螺密度变化的影响,为控制血吸虫病及其钉螺扩散提供科学依据。方法 收集1990－2014年湖北省潜江市春季查螺资料及地面气象观测数据,采用一阶自回归分析方法对实际钉螺密度进行趋势拟合与分解,利用相关分析法对钉螺密度变化率与不同时段、不同气象要素进行相关性分析。结果 对钉螺密度影响最大的气象因子是温度,其次为降水;其中1月平均最低气温和冬季平均最低气温分别是钉螺密度变化率、活螺框变化率影响最大的温度因子;1月平均最低温度升高(或降低)1 ℃,将会导致钉螺密度上升(或下降) 5.080%～6.710%;冬季平均最低温度升高(或降低)1 ℃,活螺框变化率上升(或下降)15.521%～15.928%。降水对钉螺密度影响最大的时段是上年11月至当年4月,该时段内降水偏少20%以上,有利于降低钉螺密度。9－11月日照与钉螺密度变化率、活螺框变化率存在一定相关性。在相关分析基础上分别建立了钉螺密度变化率、活螺框变化率与气象因子的统计回归模型。结论 在12月到来之前清除有螺区杂草有利于降低地表温度和土壤水分含量,能取得一定的灭螺效果。伴随全球气候变化湖北省冬季温度升高趋势明显,可能引发钉螺密度升高。     

Thermo-Viscoelastic Response of 3D Braided Composites Based on a Novel FsMsFE Method

A homogenization-based five-step multi-scale finite element (FsMsFE) simulation framework is developed to describe the time-temperature-dependent viscoelastic behavior of 3D braided four-directional composites. The current analysis was performed via three-scale finite element models, the fiber/matrix (microscopic) representative unit cell (RUC) model, the yarn/matrix (mesoscopic) representative unit cell model, and the macroscopic solid model with homogeneous property. Coupling the time-temperature equivalence principle, multi-phase finite element approach, Laplace transformation and Prony series fitting technology, the character of the stress relaxation behaviors at three scales subject to variation in temperature is investigated, and the equivalent time-dependent thermal expansion coefficients (TTEC), the equivalent time-dependent thermal relaxation modulus (TTRM) under micro-scale and meso-scale were predicted. Furthermore, the impacts of temperature, structural parameters and relaxation time on the time-dependent thermo-viscoelastic properties of 3D braided four-directional composites were studied.
