Efficacy and Safety of Pharmacological and Physical Therapies for Bell's Palsy: A Bayesian Network Meta-Analysis.
Front Neurol
April 2022
Department of Neurosurgery, The Affiliated Brain Hospital of Nanjing Medical University, Nanjing, China.
Objective: The objective was to comprehensively assess the efficacy and safety of all pharmacological and physical treatments (short-term, ≤ 1 month) for patients with acute Bell's palsy.
Methods: The electronic databases PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, Cochrane Library, and CNKI were searched for the randomized controlled trials comparing two or more regimens in patients with the Bell's palsy to be included in a Bayesian network meta-analysis. Odds ratios and CIs for the primary outcome of the House-Brackmann scale and secondary outcomes of sequelae (synkinesis and crocodile tears) and adverse events were obtained and subgroup analyses of steroids and antivirals were conducted.
Meta-analysis of the effects of ambient temperature and relative humidity on the risk of mumps.
Sci Rep

Department of Infectious Disease Prevention and Control, Center for Disease Control and Prevention of Eastern Theater Command, Nanjing, 210002, China.
Many studies have shown that the relationship between ambient temperature, relative humidity and mumps has been highlighted. However, these studies showed inconsistent results. Therefore, the goal of our study is to conduct a meta-analysis to clarify this relationship and to quantify the size of these effects as well as the potential factors.

Article Synopsis
- * Two strains of adenoviruses were isolated, named Bat-Advcxc6, showing distinct genetic characteristics and significant cytopathic effects when cultured.
- * Phylogenetic analysis identified Bat-Advcxc6 as a new species in the Mastadenovirus genus, and further research is needed to understand its transmission risks and potential health threats across species.
Biliary Microbial Structure of Gallstone Patients With a History of Endoscopic Sphincterotomy Surgery.
Front Cell Infect Microbiol
June 2021
Department of Gastroenterology, Affiliated Hangzhou First People's Hospital, Zhejiang University School of Medicine, Hangzhou, China.
Article Synopsis
- * Patients without antibiotic treatment formed three distinct clusters based on their biliary microbes, with those who had EST showing an enrichment of gastrointestinal bacteria compared to oral and environmental bacteria in the other clusters.
- * Although overall bacterial diversity (α-diversity) remained similar, the study found substantial differences in community composition (β-diversity) between patients with and without EST, suggesting that EST significantly alters the biliary bacterial landscape.
NSUN5 Facilitates Viral RNA Recognition by RIG-I Receptor.
J Immunol
December 2020
State Key Laboratory of Natural Medicines, School of Life Science and Technology, China Pharmaceutical University, Nanjing 211198, China;
The RIG-I receptor induces the innate antiviral responses upon sensing RNA viruses. The mechanisms through which RIG-I optimizes the strength of the downstream signaling remain incompletely understood. In this study, we identified that NSUN5 could potentiate the RIG-I innate signaling pathway.

PLoS One
September 2020
Chongqing General Hospital, University of Chinese Academy of Sciences, Chongqing, People's Republic of China.
Background: Depression is one of the most common mental disorders, profoundly impacting an individual's performance and quality of life. Due to their unique working conditions, nursing is counted among the occupational groups at high risk for developing depression. Because of the shortage of nursing resources in China, Chinese nurses suffer from heavy daily workloads more than those in many other countries.

Front Genet
April 2020
Department of Disease Control and Prevention, Center for Disease Control and Prevention of Eastern Theater Command, Nanjing, China.
Article Synopsis
- Human adenoviruses, specifically HAdV21, can cause various diseases but had not been previously reported in respiratory infections in China.
- Using MinION and Illumina sequencing technologies on a throat swab, researchers characterized a new HAdV21a strain, revealing about 16.91% of the reads aligned to HAdV21 reference genomes and highlighting significant discrepancies between the sequencing methods.
- The findings included distinguishing genome features and recombination events, which could enhance understanding of HAdV21a and aid in disease control and epidemiological studies in China.
Impedimetric aptasensor based on highly porous gold for sensitive detection of acetamiprid in fruits and vegetables.
Food Chem
August 2020
Institute of Agricultural Engineering, School of Agricultural Equipment and Engineering, Jiangsu University, Zhenjiang 212013, China.
A novel electrochemical aptasensor modified with highly porous gold and aptamer was prepared for the determination of acetamiprid in fruits and vegetables. Highly porous gold was synthesized by electroreduction at -4 V in an electrolyte containing 2.5 mol/L NHCl and 10 mmol/L HAuCl.

BMC Public Health
June 2019
Department of Epidemiology, College of Preventive Medicine, Army Medical University (Third Military Medical University), Chongqing, 400038, People's Republic of China.
Background: Hepatitis G virus (HGV) infection transmitted from blood donors is a concern in China, as many articles about HGV infection in Chinese blood donors from different provinces have been published. This study aimed to evaluate the overall prevalence of HGV infection in Chinese blood donors and analyse the potential risk of HGV infection through blood transfusion in China.
Methods: We performed a literature search in PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Science, the Chinese BioMedical Literature Database (CBM) and the China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) up to October 2018 regarding the prevalence of HGV in Chinese blood donors.
