Porcine circovirus-associated diseases, caused by porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2), are widespread and result in significant economic losses to the global swine industry. PCV2 can currently be divided into nine genotypes (PCV2a to PCV2i), with the currently dominant one being the PCV2d genotype. In this study, 2675 samples from 804 pig farms in 13 cities in Jiangsu Province, China, were collected between 2014 and 2021 and subjected to polymerase chain reaction analysis to investigate the frequency and genetic diversity of PCV2.

Objective: Larger diameter sutures can provide sufficient tensile strength to surgical incisions but may exacerbate the inflammatory response caused by the amount of implanted foreign material. This experiment aims to investigate the differences in biomechanical stability and tissue reactivity after suturing canine midline abdominal incisions with different suture sizes.

Method: Assessing the biomechanical differences between USP 2-0, 3-0, and 4-0 PGA sutures using uniaxial tensile testing on canine midline skin and fascial muscle tissues using either a simple continuous or simple interrupted technique.

Recent global guidelines recommend Mycobacterium tuberculosis antigen-based skin tests, such as the ESAT6-CFP10 (EC) skin test, as acceptable alternatives to the tuberculin skin test (TST) and the QuantiFERON-TB Gold In-Tube test (QFT). However, the diagnostic value of these tests among persons living with HIV (PLHIV) is unknown. We aimed to assess the diagnostic accuracy of the EC among a cohort of PLHIV in China.

Background: Although the Chinese promotion of labor analgesia began in 2018 to improve maternal health, high-quality medical care is difficult to provide to pregnant women when medical staff cannot implement standard labor analgesia procedures. This study aims to examine medical personnel's adherence to labor analgesia protocols and to explore the relationships among adherence, satisfaction, and other factors.

Methods: The data were from a national cross-sectional dataset ( = 13,944) of the 2020 Chinese Labor Analgesia Pilot Evaluation Project.

Background: The new media provides a convenient platform to access, use and exchange health information. And as a special group of health care, maternal health care is still of international concern due to their high mortality rate. Scientific research is a good way to provide advice on how to improve maternal health through stringent reasoning and accurate data.
