Our study revealed a new route of Pst transmission from the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau to the Hubei region. The Pst inoculum of northwestern Hubei came from Gansu in the northwest, whereas the inoculum in southern Hubei came from the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau via upper airflow. After the initial inocula infected wheat plants and multiplied in northern and southern Hubei, urediniospores produced in these regions further spread together along the middle reach of Hanshui Valley and made exchanges there. The finding of the new transmission route of Pst is important for improving integrated stripe rust disease management, which should have a profound impact on the balance of agricultural ecology in China.Four common fungicidal products were evaluated for their effect on symptoms caused by two nectriaceous black root rot fungi, Calonectria ilicicola and Dactylonectria macrodidyma, when applied as pot drenches to avocado (Persea americana) seedlings in the greenhouse. Applications of fludioxonil, thiophanate-methyl + etridiazole, prochloraz, and prochloraz MnCl at 2 and 4 weeks after inoculation with C. ilicicola significantly reduced root necrosis and improved root and aboveground plant biomass compared with water-treated controls. Fludioxonil reduced necrosis by 60% and had a significantly lower frequency of reisolation of C. ilicicola than the other three fungicide treatments. D. macrodidyma inoculation caused less severe symptoms in seedlings than C. ilicicola despite the longer duration of the trial. Pot drenches with fludioxonil, thiophanate-methyl + etridiazole, and prochloraz MnCl, but not prochloraz alone, significantly reduced root necrosis caused by D. macrodidyma. Prochloraz MnCl was the only fungicide treatment to increase root and plant biomass compared with water-treated controls. Both fludioxonil and prochloraz MnCl reduced the frequency of reisolation of D. macrodidyma from necrotic roots by about 50% compared with the other fungicides or water controls. The results indicated that drenches with these fungicides may suppress existing low to moderate black root rot infection, allowing new root growth and improved establishment in the orchard. Fungicide drenching must not replace best-practice disease management strategies in nurseries but may be a useful tool in crisis situations.

With access to technologies and internet around the globe, opportunities have been provided to contact and recruit participants at a more rapid pace, without face-to-face contact. However, 'eCohorts' may yield substantial volunteer bias. Few studies have compared eCohorts to general populations or samples where traditional research methods have been applied. To our knowledge, no prior analyses have reported on Swedish-based LifeGene eCohort, in comparison with the Swedish general population. The aim of this study was to compare the LifeGene eCohort at baseline with the Swedish general population.

The LifeGene eCohort (

= 39,862) was compared with the general population in Sweden represented by weighted data from the Swedish Public Health agency and Statistics Sweden. LifeGene is a nationwide project with yearly data collection. Descriptive statistics were used to compare demographic characteristics, and self-reported data on diagnosis of depression.

The LifeGene eCohort overrepresented younger people, females, those with a higher socio-economic status, non-smokers and people with a diagnosis of depression. Surprisingly, the eCohort included a larger percentage of people born outside of Sweden compared to the general population, which is not in line with previous studies.



The results show that the participants in the LifeGene eCohort are different regarding demographic variables and some health indicators from the Swedish general population. Hence, if comparisons are made between the LifeGene eCohort and a general population it becomes important to be aware of the differences that might exist between the different cohort populations and how these might affect the estimates.

Treatment of cardiogenic shock (CS) often requires the use of vasopressors and inotropic agents, which are associated with an increase in mortality. Data on change in vasopressor and inotrope requirements post Impella 5.0 placement is scarce. Thus, we aimed to study the ability of Impella 5.0 to reduce these requirements.

Retrospective analysis of consecutive patients with CS receiving Impella 5.0 was performed. Vasopressor-Inotrope Score (VIS) and a Modified Catecholamine Equivalent score (MCES) was calculated prior to and up to 72 h post-Impella implantation. Primary outcome was change in MCES from baseline to 48-h post implantation and secondary outcomes included change in VIS, changes in MCES according to SCAI Stage and to underlying etiology, and freedom from mortality at 30-days.

Twenty-eight patients with median age of 61 (48, 67) years were included. BAI1 Impella 5.0 was associated with significant reduction in MCES from baseline [9.7 (5.3, 17)] to 48 h [5.7 (3.8, 7.5),

 = 0.001]. VIS was also significantly reduced from baseline [8.3 (3.8, 19.9)] to 48 h [5.0 (2.5, 8),

 = 0.003]. MCES at 48 h was significantly reduced in patients with SCAI Stage E versus Stage C (

 = 0.026) and with acute myocardial infarction versus acute decompensated heart (

 = 0.003). Thirty-day survival was 0% in patients that had a baseline MCES ⩾ 10 without a reduction in MCES of at least 5 at 24 h.

Impella 5.0 is associated with a significant reduction in MCES and VIS scores in patients presenting with CS with 30-day survival being dependent on MCES.

Impella 5.0 is associated with a significant reduction in MCES and VIS scores in patients presenting with CS with 30-day survival being dependent on MCES.

Children of immigrants have a higher incidence of infectious disease than native children. Our aim was to assess the role of parental socioeconomic position for diagnoses of infectious disease among children of immigrants.

Data from the Norwegian Patient Registry (on diagnoses from secondary/tertiary care), Medical Birth Registry of Norway, and Statistics Norway were linked by the national personal identification number. Seven diagnostic infection categories were included from 2008 onwards. The study population included children born in Norway aged 0-10 years between 2008 and 2018 (

= 988,647). Hazards of infection diagnoses by parental region of origin (adjusted for sex, birth year, parental education, household income and mother's parity) and by parental education and household income were assessed by Cox regression.

High parental education was associated with lower hazard of infection diagnoses among children of Norwegian-born parents, but associations were less consistent among children with immigrant parents. Lower household income was related to hazard of most infectious diagnoses among children with both Norwegian-born and immigrant parents. Assessed by region diagnoses of viral and bacterial infections and infections of the musculoskeletal system and soft tissue were not associated with household income. Parental education and household income did not explain differences in hazard of infection diagnoses between children born to immigrant versus Norwegian-born parents.



Socioeconomic disadvantage did not explain differences in hazard of being diagnosed with infectious disease in secondary/tertiary care between children with immigrant versus Norwegian-born parents.National prevalence of physical and sexual violence and its relationship to sexual behaviors are unknown among men who have sex with men (MSM). We estimated 12-month prevalence of physical and sexual violence and assessed relationships between violence and sexual behaviors among MSM. Data were obtained from National HIV Behavioral Surveillance 2017 that used time-space sampling methods to recruit and interview MSM in 22 U.S. cities. Weighted percentages with 95% confidence intervals (CI) were reported. Adjusted prevalence ratios (aPR) and 95% CIs were calculated using logistic regression with predicted marginal means. Overall, 10.2% (95% CI 9.3%-11.2%) of MSM experienced physical violence only, 3.2% (95% CI 2.7%-3.7%) experienced sexual violence only, and 2.3% (95% CI 1.9%-2.7%) experienced both types of violence, in the past 12 months. Compared to MSM who did not experience violence, those who did reported higher percentages of unemployment, poverty, homelessness, same-sex discrimination, non-injection drug use, and binge drinking. Violence was not independently associated with condomless anal sex among MSM. MSM who experienced both types of violence were more likely than those who did not experience violence to have had four or more male sex partners (aPR=1.18, 95% CI 1.02-1.37). MSM who experienced both types of violence (aPR=2.49, 95% CI 1.52-4.09), sexual violence (aPR=2.27, 95% CI 1.47-3.52), or physical violence (aPR=1.76, 95% CI 1.27-2.44) were more likely than those who did not experience violence to have had exchange sex. Recent physical violence and sexual violence are common among MSM. Findings highlight the importance of violence screening and suggest the need for tailored interventions that improve the safety and economic security of MSM who experience violence, including those who exchange sex.

Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is a tumor caused by epithelial cells covering the surface of the nasopharynx. NPC only accounted for less than 1% of all cancers diagnosed worldwide. However, the global incidence rates are highest in southern China. We report a case of local advanced undifferentiated NPC [specifically, vesicular nucleus cell carcinoma (VNCC) of NPC]. Long-term disease-free survival (DFS) of a patient with stage IVA NPC is reported.

A 42-year-old male presented with a 4-month history of rhinorrhea and a lump in the left neck. The positron emission tomography (PET) showed local invasion to the surrounding tissues, specifically, the tumor invaded the brain. The pathological diagnosis was VNCC, the Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) was positive in tumor tissues by in situ hybridization. and the clinical diagnosis was stage IVA of NPC. The patient was treated with induction chemotherapy (IC) with gemcitabine and cisplatin (GP) followed by cisplatin/radiotherapy. The tumor lesions complete response (CR) ment in clinic and bring longer survival to patients.Data in 2020 show that lung cancer is the second most common cancer with the highest morbidity and mortality in the world, among which small cell lung cancer (SCLC) accounts for about 15% of the total number of lung cancers, but the number of deaths accounts for 25% of lung cancers. SCLC is an aggressive malignancy disease with a high recurrence rate and poor prognosis. The survival rate of small cell lung cancer is lower than other types of lung cancer and the prognosis is very poor. At present, there is still a lack of effective therapeutic options for SCLC after the failure of second-line treatment. However, studies have shown that anti-vascular therapy and programmed death-1 (PD-1) inhibitors are effective in SCLC. In the present case, a combination therapy of camrelizumab, a PD-1 inhibitor, and anlotinib (an anti-angiogenic drug) was administered to treat a 58-year-old male patient with programmed cell death-Ligand 1 (PD-L1) negative metastatic SCLC accompanied by primary tongue cancer. A total of 28 cycles were used from March 2020 to November 2021.
