Objective: To explore the distribution of different biomarkers for Behcet's syndrome (BS) and their correlation with distinct clinical phenotypes of BS patients in real-world studies. Methods: This study was a retrospective cross-sectional study. A total of 483 patients diagnosed with BS in the Department of Rheumatology and Immunology, Peking University People's Hospital from 2019 to 2022 were enrolled. The baseline information and clinical features of the patients were recorded at their first diagnosis and tested the level of HLA-B51, several auto-antibodies, antistreptolysin-O(ASO), immune globulin, complement in blood serum and interleukin-6 (IL-6). Logistic regression was used to analyze the correlation of biomarkers and phenotypes. Results: Among BS patients, the number of positive cases for HLA-B51, anti-endothelial cell antibody (AECA), antinuclear antibodies (ANA) and ASO was 129, 115, 79 and 54, respectively. The positive rate of other biomarkers was less than 5.0%. About 12.6% of patients with BS had an increased level of IgA (n=61), and 10.8% of patients had an increased level of IgG (n=52). About 41.0% of patients had increased levels of IL-6 (n=198), and 6.4% of patients had decreased levels of IgM (n=31). About 11.2% of patients had decreased levels of C3 (n=54), and 6.0% of patients had decreased levels of C4 (n=29). Elevated IgA was a risk factor for the articular phenotype of BS (OR=2.652, P=0.011). Decreased complement C4 was a risk factor for the neurological phenotype of BS (OR=3.594, P=0.039). Positive ASO was a risk factor for the gastrointestinal phenotype of BS (OR=2.578, P=0.041). Elevated IL-6 was a risk factor for the ocular phenotype of BS (OR=7.560, P=0.016). Conclusion: HLA-B51 and AECA are common biomarkers in BS. Elevated IgA, decreased complement C4, positive ASO, and elevated IL-6 are risk factors for different phenotypes of BS.

The "Healthy China 2030" plan outlines the goal of providing equitable, accessible, and continuous health services to achieve overall health for the population. However, with the increasing aging population in China, the burden of chronic non-communicable diseases and infectious diseases negatively impacts public health. The elderly population has high hospitalization rates due to infections from influenza virus, respiratory syncytial virus, and streptococcus pneumoniae, which can even lead to death, posing a heavy economic burden on the healthcare system. Meanwhile, the prevalence of chronic diseases and multimobidity among adults are continuously rising, and infections could attack the high-risk groups which cause comlicaitons and severe outcomes. Vaccination is considered the most cost-effective measure for preventing infectious diseases, significantly reducing the disease burden on individuals while effectively controlling the spread of epidemics within the community. Currently, the adult vaccination service system in China is significantly lagging, making it difficult to fully utilize the health protection benefits of vaccines throughout the entire lifecycle. Therefore, to improve adult vaccination services and increase the vaccination rate among high-risk populations for severe diseases, this expert consensus analyzes the current status and challenges of adult vaccination services based on literature reviews and expert discussions. To provide suggestions for the establishment and improvement of adult vaccination service system, and reference health authorities and disease control departments to formulate relevant policies.

To analyze the infection of chlamydia (CT) and gonorrhea (NG) in female infertility and male infertility population, and to explore the correlation between CT and NG infection and infertility. A case-control study was conducted to retrospectively analyze the specimens submitted by patients from the Third Xiangya Hospital of Central South University from January 2021 to December 2022. The results showed that a total of 32 184 specimens were collected, and the positive rates of CT were 4.41% (1 419/32 184), and positive rats of NG were 1.42% (457/32 184). In the infertility group (n=3 366), 2 987 were females and 379 were males. In the control group (n=3 366), 2 509 were females and 857 were males.

To analyze the changes in lactate dehydrogenase, creatine kinase, creatine kinase isoenzyme, high-sensitivity troponin T, N-terminal B-type natriuretic peptide precursor, homocysteine, and novel inflammatory indices (neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio, platelet-lymphocyte ratio, systemic immune-inflammation index) before and after competitions in amateur marathon runners, and to assess the effects of myocardial injury due to acute exercise and the value of novel inflammatory indices in marathon exercise monitoring. This paper is an analytical study. Amateur athletes recruited by Beijing Hospital to participate in the 2022 Beijing Marathon and the 2023 Tianjin Marathon, and those who underwent health checkups at the Beijing Hospital Medical Checkup Center from January to June 2023 were selected as the study subjects, and 65 amateur marathon runners (41 males and 24 females) and 130 healthy controls (82 males and 48 females) were enrolled in the study according to the inclusion criteria. Peripheral blood was collected one week before, immediately after, and one week after running, and routine blood tests, cardiac enzymes, infarction markers, N-terminal B-type natriuretic peptide precursor, and homocysteine were performed to calculate the values of novel inflammatory indexes. Wilcoxon signed-rank test and Spearman's rank correlation analysis were used to compare the differences in the levels of each index between the amateur marathon population and the health checkup population, and to compare the changes and correlations of each index at the three time points in the amateur marathoners.The results showed that the neutrophil-lymphocyte ratios of the healthy physical examination population and 65 amateur marathoners 1 week before running were 1.73 (1.33, 2.16) and 1.67 (1.21, 2.16), the platelet-lymphocyte ratios were 122.75 (96.69, 155.89) and 120.86 (100.74, 154.63), and the systemic immune inflammation index was 398.62 (274.50, 538.69) and 338.41 (258.62, 485.38), etc.; on 1 week before running, immediately after running and 1 week after running, lactate dehydrogenase of 65 amateur marathon runners was 173.00(159.00, 196.50)U/L,284.00(237.50, 310.50)U/L, 183.00(165.50, 206.50)U/L, creatine kinase was 131.00(94.30, 188.20)U/L,318.00(212.00, 573.15)U/L,139.00(90.55, 202.40)U/L, creatine kinase isoenzyme was 2.50(1.76, 3.43)μg/L,6.24(4.87, 10.30)μg/L,2.73(1.57, 4.40)μg/L.In 65 amateur marathon runners, lactate dehydrogenase, creatine kinase, creatine kinase isoenzyme, high sensitivity troponin T, N-terminal B-type natriuretic peptide precursor, homocysteine, and novel inflammation markers were significantly elevated in the immediate post-run period compared with 1 week before the run, and the differences were statistically significant (Z=-7.009, Z=-6.813, Z=-6.885, Z=-7.009, Z=-7.009, Z=-6.656; P<0.05 for the above indicators).Neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio, platelet-lymphocyte ratio, and systemic immune-i

The study focused on individuals with influenza-like symptoms (fever, cough, sore throat, runny nose, and other respiratory symptoms) in three kindergartens in Tongzhou District, Beijing City, in April 2023. Nasopharyngeal swab specimens were collected, and real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR was used to detect common respiratory pathogens in the collected specimens. Positive specimens were subjected to sequencing analysis of the highly variable region of human respiratory syncytial virus (HRSV) G protein, homology analysis and phylogenetic tree analysis. A total of 25 fever cases were collected from 3 kindergartens, aged 3-8 years old, with an age M (Q₁, Q₃) of 4 (3.5, 5) years old. Ten confirmed cases of HRSV positive were screened and detected using the fluorescent quantitative PCR method, with a total detection rate of 40% (10/25). Typing identification and sequencing analysis confirmed that the main epidemic type was HRSV subtype B, which was highly homologous and closely related to previous epidemic strains in the region. Through pathogen investigation and analysis, it was preliminarily determined that this epidemic was dominated by HRSV subtype B.

Objective: To analyze the epidemiological characteristics of human respiratory syncytial virus (HRSV) in patients with acute respiratory infection (ARIs) in sentinel hospitals of the Hubei influenza surveillance network from 2016 to 2023. Methods: ARIs samples [including influenza-like cases (ILI) and severe acute respiratory infection (SARI)] were collected from influenza surveillance sentinel hospitals in Hubei Province from 2016 to 2023, and case information was collected. HRSV virus nucleic acid typing was performed by fluorescence quantitative PCR method, and the data were collated, plotted and analyzed. Results: From 2016 to 2023, 12 779 cases of ILI and 9 166 cases of SARI were collected. The positive rate of HRSV was the highest in<5 years of age group [15.77% (168/1 065)], among which the positive rate was the highest in 2 to 5 years of age group of ILI cases [13.60% (31/228)], and the positive rate was the highest in 0 to 2 years of age group of SARI cases [25.97% (60/231)] (all P values<0.001). The positive rate of HRSV in SARI cases was 2.31%-25.97%, higher than that in ILI cases (0-13.60%) (P=0.016). HRSV was prevalent in autumn and winter from 2016 to 2020 and in spring in 2023. Alternating epidemics of HRSV virus type A and B in Hubei Province from 2016 to 2023 (dominant epidemics of type B in 2016 and 2020; dominant epidemics of type A in 2017-2019 and 2023). Conclusion: SARI and ILI patients under five years old are the main infection groups of HRSV. The seasonal prevalence characteristics of HRSV in Hubei Province from 2016 to 2023 shift from autumn and winter to spring.

Methods: A total of 392 patients with seasonal allergic rhinitis were selected from the population of the epidemiological investigation project of allergic diseases in Hohhot, Inner Mongolia. The project was led by Department of Allergy, Beijing Shijitan Hospital, Capital Medical University, and assisted by Hohhot First Hospital from April to May 2023. The patients were randomly divided into a spleen aminopeptide group (296 cases) and control group (96 cases) at a ratio of 3∶1, and the enrollment period was from June 1 to 14, 2023. The treatment group was treated with spleen aminopeptide oral solution for 12 weeks starting from 4-6 weeks (±7 days) before the pollen dispersal period, while the control group was treated with a simulated agent of spleen aminopeptide oral solution. Both the treatment group and the control group were treated with oral antihistamines and/or nasal glucocorticoids as needed during the pollen dispersal period. Evaluate the therapeutic effect by comparing the symptom scores, drug scores and quality of life scores of the two groups, and detect the expression levels of cytokines in serum. Symptom scores, quality of life scores, drug scores and laboratory results were compared by independent sample t test/Kruskal-Wallis test and χ² test/Fisher's exact test. Results: Compared with the control group, spleen aminopeptide treatment for 12 weeks significantly improved symptoms of nasal congestion [M(Q₁,Q₃):2(1, 2) vs. 2(1, 3), H=6.308, P<0.05], nasal itching [M(Q₁,Q₃):2(1, 2) vs. 2(1, 3), H=4.966, P<0.05], sneezing [M(Q₁,Q₃):2(1, 2) vs. 2(1, 3), H=5.245, P<0.05], runny nose [M(Q₁,Q₃):2(1, 2) vs. 2(1, 3), H=5.41, P<0.05] and tearing [M(Q₁,Q₃):1(0, 2) vs. 1(0, 3), H=4.664, P<0.05]. At 12 weeks of treatment, the scores of nasal symptoms and ocular symptoms in control group and experimental group were significantly increased compared with baseline (P<0.05). In experimental group, nasal congestion [M(Q₁,Q₃):1(0, 1) vs. 1(0, 2), H=4.042, P<0.05], eye itching/foreign body sensation/redness symptom scores [M(Q₁,Q₃):1(0, 2) vs. 1(0, 2), H=5.302, P<0.05] and total scores [M(Q₁,Q₃):4(-1, 9) vs. 5(0, 12.5), H=3.958, P<0.05] were significantly increased. The antihistamine drug score of the splenic peptide treatment group at 6 weeks were lower than that of the control group (H=4.232, P<0.05). After 12 weeks of treatment, the antihistamine drug score [M(Q₁
