To better understand the duration of immunity against respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) and role serum antibodies to surface glycoproteins, F G, in susceptibility reinfection, 15 adults with previous natural RSV infection were challenged same strain group (A) at 2, 4, 8, 14, 20, 26 months after infection. By 2 about one-half by 8 two-thirds subjects became reinfected. Each challenge resulted least one-fourth subjects. Within 73% had two or more 47% three infections. The tended increase...

Human herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6) causes a febrile illness in children and has been implicated as cause of encephalitis recurrent seizures. Paired samples cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) from 487 were evaluated by nested polymerase chain reaction (PCR) for evidence current or past infection with HHV-6. PBMC also cultured isolation These data correlated the patients' clinical information. HHV-6 DNA was detected 72 (14.8%) CSF samples. persistence documented 142...
Abstract Background In an aging society, herpes zoster (HZ) increases the health burden on infected patients. While quantitative studies point to a lack of willingness accept HZ vaccine in China, there is limited number with in-depth qualitative analysis vaccination intention. This study undertakes qualitive method identify barriers and facilitators behind urban residents’ intention three China cities, contributes towards some targeted promotion suggestions other LMICs similar low coverage...
Although the herpes zoster vaccine has been available in mainland China since June 2020, residents' knowledge of and is poor, vaccination rates are low, especially among elderly, who at high risk for zoster. This study assessed willingness to be vaccinated against factors associated with urban residents China. A mixed-methods was conducted community health centres from August 2022 September 2022. We used convenience sampling select 2864 9 Chinese cities quantitative 67 adults qualitative...
The present study tested the hypothesis that presence of renal prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) is necessary for full natriuretic response to increased interstitial hydrostatic pressure (RIHP) during perfusion (RPP). In control untreated pentobarbital-anesthetized dogs (n = 7), fractional excretion sodium (FENa) was 1.17 +/- 0.48, 1.07 0.24, and 2.69 0.57% at RPP 90, 122, 148 mmHg, respectively. These changes in FENa were associated with effective blood flows (ERBF) 1.43 0.20, 1.49 0.23, 1.99 0.40...
Objective: To understand the knowledge, attitude, and current status of vaccination herpes zoster among urban residents aged 25 years above in China. Methods: In August to October 2022, a convenience sampling method was used survey at 36 community centers 9 cities across Questionnaires were collect basic information, attitude toward its vaccination, as well reasons for non-vaccination residents. Results: A total 2 864 included study. The score residents' cognition vaccine 3.01±2.08, their...
SummaryThe efficacy and biochemical effects of two low-dose thiazide plus potassium-sparing diuretic preparations were compared in the treatment elderly patients with stable, mild to moderate congestive heart failure. Sixty (mean age 80 years) randomly allocated 1 tablet daily either 25 mg hydrochlorothiazide/2.5 amiloride or25 hydrochlorothiazide/50 triamterene. The dose was increased 2 tablets if necessary, after weeks, for a further 6 weeks. Patients' response assessed at 2, 4 8 weeks...
In supporting primary healthcare in delivering high-quality care for individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), previous research emphasized strategies to facilitate communication and collaboration between providers hospitals. This study aims evaluate the effectiveness of case discussion conferences specialists from hospitals China on optimization management improvement patient health outcomes. will be a parallel cluster randomized controlled trial which institutions Shouguang city...
The results obtained with an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for detection of human herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6) immunoglobulin G using a single 1:100 dilution serum correlated well those found by indirect fluorescence microscopic (IFA) (r = 0.71). Concordant were in all 7 paired samples from patients acute primary infections and 37 41 (90.24%) samples. Fourteen (25%) which yielded nonspecific IFA evaluable ELISA. In serologic survey the ELISA, disproportionate number 12-month-old infants...
Background: Herpes zoster increases the burden on infected patients especially in an aging society. Even vaccine (HZV) has been available China since 2020, limited number of quantitative studies point to a lack willingness accept HZ vaccine. This study used qualitative method understand barriers and motivators behind Chinese urban residents’ intention HZV three different geographic cities.Methods: Focus group discussions with participants aged 25 above were conducted cities diverse economic...
Objective: After progressing with identification of genomic determinants diabetic nephropathy, we evaluated the management microalbuminuria in hypertensive patients type 2 diabetes (T2D). Design and method: Clinical Practice Diabetes Study (NCT01907958) is a multicenter stepped wedge cluster randomized trial family practice clinics comparing effect introducing Point Care Testing (POCT) for urine albumin to usual T2D genetic testing general practice. A total 8 sites were involved, totaling...
