Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a major public health issue in China, imposing a substantial disease burden to the patient's family and the whole society. This article reviews COPD risk factors from both individual and environmental dimensions, discusses advances in early screening and diagnostic strategies for COPD, aiming to inform prevention and control measures to reduce the burden of COPD.

[Objective]To assess the availability of bronchodilators for treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) in community health service centers (CHCs) in Shanghai.[Methods]On the basis of previous research, the questionnaire was updated, and surveys were conducted from April to May 2023 in CHCs in Shanghai, with a focus on the availability of medications for COPD treatment. According to the National Basic Medical Insurance, Work Injury Insurance, and Maternity Insurance Drug List (2023 Edition), a total of 24 types of bronchodilators for COPD treatment were identified. The availability rates were used to assess the accessibility of specific drugs in CHCs, and the dispensing rates were used to evaluate the variety of these medications in CHCs.[Results]A total of 248 CHCs responded, with a response rate of 100.0%. Among them, a total of 232 CHCs (93.5%) were equipped with bronchodilators. In terms of availability rates, the availability rates for 2 adrenoreceptor agonists, muscarinic antagonists, combination drugs, and xanthines drugs were 86.3%, 52.0%, 52.4%, and 85.1%, respectively. Regional differences were observed, in that salbutamol/levalbuterol and budesonide-formoterol were less available in suburban CHCs, ipratropium bromide had lower availability in urban CHCs, and aminophylline was more available in suburban CHCs. Regarding the dispensing rates of the 24 types of bronchodilators for COPD treatment, the median of types equipped by CHCs was 5, with a total of 200 CHCs(80.6%) equipped with fewer than 7 types of bronchodilator drugs.[Conclusion]The proportion of CHCs in Shanghai equipped with bronchodilators for COPD is relatively high. However, there exist problems such as limited variety of stocked medications, significant differences in the availability of different drugs, and regional imbalances in drug stocking. To improve the standardized diagnosis, treatment, and management of COPD patients, it is recommended to enhance the availability of COPD treatment medications in CHCs.

[Objective]To analyze the influencing factors of pulmonary dysfunction among community-based population at high-risk for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and to establish a risk assessment model to provide a reference basis for accelerating the beforehand prevention and control of COPD and promoting the respiratory health of community-based residents.[Methods]Individuals aged >35 years old, with at least one risk factor except age illustrated in the Guidelines for Primary Diagnosis and Treatment of Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease(2018), and participated in the early screening for COPD from July 2022 to December 2023 were selected as the research subjects, and their lung function was assessed by the forceful expiratory volume in the first second after inhalation of bronchodilator (FEV1)/forced vital capacity(FVC) <70% and/or the ratio of FEV1 to predicted value (FEV1%Pred) <80% as the diagnostic criteria. In addition, risk factors related to pulmonary dysfunction were analyzed for the establishment of risk assessment model.[Results]A total of 823 individuals aged between 35-76 years were included, among which 298 (36.21%) were diagnosed with pulmonary dysfunction, 167 (20.29%) with COPD, and 131 (15.92%) with preserved ratio but impaired spirometry. Logistic regression analysis revealed that male gender, increasing age, more frequent smoking, insufficient physical activity, recurrent wheezing, the presence of post-exercise wheezing or coughing, insensitive to airborne allergens, and history of chronic bronchitis or bronchial asthma were correlated with pulmonary dysfunction. The incidence rate of pulmonary dysfunction was 1.99 times higher in males than that in females, 1.81 times more common in those aged between 70-76 years than those aged <60 years, 2.42 times more common in those who smoked 50 - 200 pack-years than in those who smoked 0 - 14 pack-years, 1.78 times higher in those who underwent physical activity <600 MET-min·week-1 than in those who underwent physical activity ≥600 MET-min·week-1, 2.61 times higher in those suffered recurrent wheezing than in those did not, 1.53 times higher in those with symptoms of post-exercise wheezing or coughing than in those without, 1.61 times higher in those insensitive to airborne allergens than those sensitive, 2.02 times higher in patients with chronic bronchitis than in those without, and 2.41 times higher in patients with bronchial asthma than in those without. The risk assessment model for pulmonary dysfunction constructed on this basis had a total score of 28 points, and the area under the subject operating characteristic (ROC) curve was 0.72, reaching the cut-off point of ROC curve while taking scores ≥10 points as the cut-off value for pulmonary dysfunction.[Conclusion]In community-based high-risk COPD population, the incidence rate of pulmonary dysfunction is higher in males than that in females, in addition, which increases with the advancement of age. Smoking, insufficient physical activity, recurrent wheezing, post-exercise wheezing or coughing,insensitive to airborne allergens,and history of chronic bronchitis or bronchial asthma are high risk factors for pulmonary dysfunction. The risk assessment model constructed based on these factors has a good predictive effect in screening high-risk population of COPD, but its effectiveness in screening people at general risk needs to be further validated.

[Objective]To understand the seropositivity of neutralizing antibodies (NAb) and low-level NAb against SARS-CoV-2 infection in the community residents, and to explore the impact of COVID-19 vaccination and SARS-CoV-2 infection on the levels of NAb in human serum.[Methods]On the ground of surveillance cohort for acute infectious diseases in community populations in Shanghai, a proportional stratified sampling method was used to enroll the subjects at a 20% proportion for each age group (0-14, 15-24, 25-59, and ≥60 years old). Blood samples collection and serum SARS-CoV-2 NAb concentration testing were conducted from March to April 2023. Low-level NAb were defined as below the 25th percentile of NAb.[Results]A total of 2 230 participants were included, the positive rate of NAb was 97.58%, and the proportion of low-level NAb was 25.02% (558/2 230). Multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated that age, infection history and vaccination status were correlated with low-level NAb (all P<0.05). Individuals aged 60 years and above had the highest risk of low-level NAb. There was a statistically significant interaction between booster vaccination and one single infection (aOR=0.38, 95%CI: 0.19-0.77). Compared to individuals without vaccination, among individuals infected with SARS-CoV-2 once, both primary immunization (aOR=0.23, 95%CI: 0.16-0.35) and booster immunization (aOR=0.12, 95%CI: 0.08-0.17) significantly reduced the risk of low-level NAb; among individuals without infections, only booster immunization (aOR=0.28, 95%CI: 0.14 - 0.52) showed a negative correlation with the risk of low-level NAb.[Conclusions]The population aged 60 and above had the highest risk of low-level NAb. Regardless of infection history, a booster immunization could reduce the risk of low-level NAb. It is recommended that eligible individuals, especially the elderly, should get vaccinated in a timely manner to exert the protective role of NAb.

[Objective]To investigate the infection characteristics of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) in children with acute respiratory tract infection (ARI) in Pudong New Area, Shanghai, from 2013 to 2023, so as to provide an evidence for the prevention and control of RSV in Shanghai.[Methods]Children who sought medical care at sentinel healthcare facilities in Pudong New Area, Shanghai, between January 2013 and December 2023 and met the case definition of ARI were included in the study. Nasopharyngeal swab samples were collected and tested for viral pathogens using real-time fluorescene PCR, and the clinical information of whom was collected simultaneously.[Results]A total of 4 980 children were included in the ARI surveillance, among whom 231 tested positive for RSV, with an overall detection rate of 4.64%. Of these, 106 cases were type A and 125 were type B. From 2013 to 2023, the detection rate of RSV in children showed an overall trend of initial increase followed by a decline, with higher detection rates in autumn and winter and lower rates in spring and summer. The RSV detection rate gradually decreased with age, with the highest rate observed in children <1 year old, accounting for 16.33% (80/490) of RSV-detection cases. Cough was the most common clinical symptom. Among the RSV-positive cases, 36 involved co-infection with another virus, 6 co-infected with three viruses, and 1 with mixed infection of four viruses. The most frequent co-infection was RSV and human coronavirus.[Conclusion]Children under 1 year of age are more susceptible to RSV infection, with cough being the predominant symptom. RSV infection in Pudong New Area, Shanghai, mainly occurs in winter. Targeted prevention and control measures should be taken for children under 1 year old during the winter season to reduce the risk of both RSV infection and co-infection with human coronavirus and influenza virus.

[Objectives]To analyze the trends in mortality and disease burden of colorectal cancer (CRC) among the registered residents in Danyang City, Jiangsu Province, from 2013 to 2023, and to provide a scientific basis for developing CRC prevention and control strategies.[Methods]Mortality surveillance data on CRC among the registered residents in Danyang City from 2013 to 2023 were collected and analyzed. Crude mortality rate (CMR), age-standardized mortality rate (ASMR), years of life lost (YLL) due to premature death, and YLL rate were calculated. The annual percentage change (APC) and average annual percent change (AAPC) of CMR, ASMR and YLL rate were calculated with Joinpoint Regression Program 4.9.0.1.[Results]A total of 1 920 deaths from colorectal cancer were recorded in Danyang City during 2013-2023, with an average annual CMR of 21.75/100 000, which showed an upward trend (APC=6.47%, 95%CI: 4.21%-8.79%, P<0.001), with higher CMR observed in males than that in females. The overall ASMR by Chinese standard population was 12.10/100 000, with no obvious temporal trends (APC=1.37%, P=0.364). ASMR increased with age, particularly after 45 years. The total YLL due to CRC was 34 711 personyears, with an average YLL rate of 3.93‰. The YLL rate showed a significant upward trend from 2013 to 2023 (APC=4.96%, 95%CI: 4.08%-18.16%, P<0.001) in Danyang City.[Conclusion]The mortality rate of colorectal cancer in Danyang City is relatively high and has shown a rising trend, resulting in an increasing disease burden on the residents year by year. Continued efforts to strengthen CRC prevention and control are needed, particularly targeting males and the elderly population.

[Objective]To investigate the content of trihalomethanes (THMs) in treated water after different water treatment processes and their correlations with premanganate index, so as to provide data support for the renovation of water production process and optimization of water quality improvement.[Methods]From 2022 to 2023, seven centralized water supply units using raw water from Qingcaosha reservoir were selected as the testing sites, among which three units with the conventional treatment process, two units with the advanced treatment process, and two units with the advanced treatment process combined CO2 treatment. Monthly water quality testing data were collected, focusing on testing the concentration variations of THMs, trichloromethane, dibromochloromethane, bromodichloromethane, bromoform, and permanganate index.[Results]The comparison between conventional treatment process and advanced treatment process demonstrated that the conventional treatment process exhibited significantly higher concentrations of trihalomethanes, trichloromethane, bromodichloromethane, and permanganate index in water samples (all P<0.05). When comparing conventional treatment process with advanced treatment process combined with carbon dioxide treatment, the conventional treatment process showed significantly elevated levels of trihalomethanes, dibromochloromethane, bromodichloromethane, and permanganate index (all P<0.05). No statistically significant differences were observed in the comparison of various indicators between advanced treatment process and advanced treatment process combined with carbon dioxide treatment for any of the measured parameters (all P>0.05). Analysis of seasonal variations revealed that finished water during the high-temperature period (May to November) contained significantly higher concentrations of trihalomethanes, trichloromethane, bromodichloromethane, and tribromomethane compared to the low-temperature period (December to April of the following year) (all P<0.05). Significant positive correlations were identified between permanganate index and trihalomethanes (r=0.213, P=0.007), permanganate index and dibromochloromethane (r=0.186, P=0.019), permanganate index and bromodichloromethane (r=0.243, P=0.002), permanganate index and tribromomethane (r=0.193, P=0.014).[Conclusion]Compared to the conventional water treatment process, advanced treatment process and advanced treatment combined with CO2 injection process can significantly reduce the concentrations of THMs in the treated effluent water. Besides, the generation of THMs is affected by seasonal temperatures, with higher concentrations of THMs, trichloromethane, bromodichloromethane, and bromoform being observed in the high-temperature season. Additionally, the permanganate index shows a significant positive correlation with THMs concentrations, indicating that the content of organic matter in the source of raw water contributes to the generation of THMs in the treated water.

[Objective]To delineate the species composition structure and seasonal density fluctuations of mosquito populations in Yangpu District, Shanghai, and to provide scientific insights for the prevention and control of vector-borne diseases.[Methods]A total of 12 monitoring sites from different habitats were selected to conduct adult mosquito monitoring using the CO2 trap light method during 2019-2023, elucidating the temporal and spatial distribution and change patterns of mosquito populations and densities in Yangpu District.[Results]From 2019 to 2023, a total of 1 321 female mosquitoes was captured, with an overall density of 0.16 case·(lamp·h)-1. The species identified were predominantly Culex pipiens pallens (87.28%), followed by Aedes albopictus (12.64%), and Culex tritaeniorhynchus (0.08%). Seasonal distribution showed a typical single-peak pattern, with June - August being the peak period. In terms of habitat distribution, the highest mosquito population density was found in residential areas [0.18 case·(lamp·h)-1], followed by hospitals [0.13 case·(lamp·h)-1] and parks[0.11 case·(lamp·h)-1]. Culex pipiens pallens was the dominant species in all habitats, with a density of [0.14 case·(lamp·h)-1]. Notably, there was a statistically significant difference in the composition of Culex pipiens pallens and Aedes albopictus among the three habitats mentioned(2=38.396, P<0.001; 2=36.790, P<0.001). The mosquito density of the 12 streets from high to low is Changhai Road, Pingliang, Yinhang, Xinjiangwan City, Yanji, Daqiao, Wujiaochang, Kongjiang, Changbai New Village, Jiangpu, Siping and Dinghai.The distribution of mosquito density was relatively balanced across different communities (H=1.559, P=1.000).[Conclusion]The results of CO2 trap light monitoring reveals a relatively low density of adult mosquitoes in Yangpu District, with Culex pipiens pallens as the predominant species, and summer being the peak season for mosquitoes. In light of the threat of mosquito-borne diseases such as dengue fever, more effective and evidence-based mosquito control strategies, aligning with the distribution and behavioral patterns of mosquitoes, should be developed.

[Objective]To explore the characteristics of ecological niche and interspecific relationships of mosquitoes in different habitats in Dongcheng District, Beijing, and to provide a basis for mosquito ecological monitoring, control and the development or optimization of prevention and control strategies for related mosquito-borne diseases.[Methods]From May to October 2023, the ecological monitoring in residential areas, parks, tourist attractions and medical institutions in Dongcheng District of Beijing was carried out using the carbon dioxide (CO2) mosquito trapping method, and the ecological niche characteristics and interspecific relationships of mosquitoes in different habitats were analyzed using Levins ecological niche breadth index, Pinaka ecological niche overlap index and ecological niche similarity coefficients.[Results]The temporal ecological niche of Culex pipiens pallens (10.62) was higher than that of Aedes albopictus (8.29) in different habitats in Dongcheng District of Beijing, and the temporal ecological niche overlap index of the two mosquitoes was as high as 0.87. The ecological niche breadth of Culex pipiens pallens was higher than that of Aedes albopictus in different monitoring habitats, and the order of the ecological niche breadth of Culex pipiens pallens in different monitoring habitats was, from high to low, as follows: residential areas (11.09) > tourist attractions (10.25) >medical institutions (9.15) > parks (9.07), while the ecological niche breadth of Aedes albopictus in different habitats was, in descending order, residential areas (8.56) > medical institutions (7.68) > parks (7.44) > tourist attractions (5.73). The results of niche overlap analysis showed that the overlap index between Culex pipiens pallens and Aedes albopictus was the largest in residential areas (0.86), as for in other habitats, which was, in descending order, parks (0.81) > medical institutions (0.68) > tourist attractions (0.60). Besides, the ecological similarity coefficients further verified that similarity coefficients, between the two mosquito species, were highest in residential areas (0.712), lowest in tourist attractions (0.497), and which were 0.675 in parks and 0.598 in medical institutions, respectively.[Conclusion]In different monitoring habitats in Dongcheng District of Beijing, Culex albopictus pallens demonstrates a stronger spatio-temporal resource utilization ability than Aedes albopictus, and the two species exhibit more similar spatio-temporal resource utilization patterns in residential areas. Corresponding control strategies targeting the characteristics of ecological niches and interspecific relationships of these two mosquito species in different habitats should be developed to enhance the prevention and control effect.

[Objective]To investigate the association between triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index and the risk of stroke in middle-aged and elderly individuals with hypertension, so as to provide more evidence for the prevention and treatment of stroke.[Methods]Middle-aged and elderly hypertensive individuals who took part in all four surveys in 2011, 2013, 2015, and 2018 were selected as the research subjects based on data from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS). Participants were divided into four groups (≤Q1, >Q1~Q2, >Q2~Q3, and >Q3) based on TyG index quartiles, and the cumulative risk of stroke in different groups was analyzed using the Kaplan-Meier method. Different Cox proportional hazards regression models were constructed to analyze the relationship between the TyG index and stroke risk. Sensitivity analysis were performed to evaluate the robustness of the results.[Results]A total of 4 596 participants were included in the study. Among them, 338 individuals (7.35%) had a stroke during the 7-year follow-up period. The cumulative risk of stroke increased with higher TyG index levels. Results from the Cox regression models indicated that higher TyG levels were associated with an increased risk of stroke among middle-aged and elderly individuals with hypertension. Compared with the lowest TyG index quartile (≤Q1: TyG index ≤8.33) group, the highest quartile (>Q3: TyG index >9.17) group showed a 45.10% increased risk of stroke (HR=1.451, 95% CI:1.017-2.072).[Conclusion]A higher TyG index is associated with an increased risk of stroke in middle-aged and elderly individuals with hypertension.

[Objective]To study the effect and efficacy of Nirmatrelvir tablet/Ritonavir tablet in the treatment of patients with COVID-19 infection aged ≥90 years, to inform pharmacological treatment of patients aged ≥90 years with COVID-19 infection.[Methods]Mild to moderate COVID-19 patients who were hospitalized in the Department of Geriatrics of the First Affiliated Hospital of the Naval Medical University from March 2022 to June 2024, aged ≥90 years, and who had not been vaccinated against novel coronavirus were selected as the research subjects. A total of 112 patients who received Nirmatrelvir tablet/Ritonavir tablet antiviral treatment within 5 days after the diagnosis of COVID-19 infection were referred to the drug group, and 80 patients who were not treated with antiviral drugs were referred to as the control group. A retrospective research method was employed to gather and compare patitents' clinical laboratory data before and after antiviral treatment, such as blood routine tests, inflammatory markers, coagulation function tests, liver and renal function tests, electrolyte levels, and blood gas analysis, between the drug group and the control group. Additionally, the time duration to negative conversion and 28-day all-cause mortality rates were compared between the two groups. Logistic regression analysis was conducted on factors associated with mortality, such as the oxyhemoglobin saturation after treatment, time duration to negative conversion, and the use of Nirmatrelvir tablet/Ritonavir tablet or not, while correlation analysis was performed to evaluate the efficacy of Nirmatrelvir tablet/Ritonavir tablet based on the level of oxyhemoglobin saturation, time duration to negative conversion, and all-cause mortality rates within 28 days.[Results]After treatment, oxyhemoglobin saturation increased in the drug group (t=-2.726, P=0.011), and the differences between the indicators in the control group compared to the pre-treatment period were not statistically significant (all P>0.05). The time to negative conversion and 28-day all-cause mortality of control group were higher than those in the drug group (all P<0.05). Logistic regression analysis revealed that the lower the post-treatment oxyhemoglobin saturation, the lower the use of Nirmatrelvir tablet/Ritonavir tablet, the longer the time to conversion, and the higher the mortality rate of the patients (all P<0.05). Correlation analysis showed that treatment with Nirmatrelvir tablet/Ritonavir tablet resulted in higher oxyhemoglobin saturation (r=0.425, P=0.008), shorter time to negative conversion (r=-0.398, P=0.013), and lower all-cause mortality rates within 28 days (r=-0.370, P=0.022).[Conclusion]Nirmatrelvir tablet/Ritonavir tablet is effective in mild and moderate infection patients aged ≥90 years who have not been vaccinated against COVID-19 infection, and can increase patients' oxyhemoglobin saturation, shorten the time to negative conversion, and reduce 28-day all-cause mortality rate.

[Objective]To analyze the changes in the degree of coordination of China's major epidemic prevention and control efforts before and after the outbreak of the Corona Virus Disease 2019 (COVID-19), so as to explore the impact of epidemic prevention and control measures on coordination dynamics.[Methods]A total of 3 864 policy documents related to epidemic prevention and control from January 2000 to December 2020 across 31 provinces (autonomous regions, and municipalities) in China were systematically collected. Contents specific to collaborative and cooperative efforts were extracted, and the extent of interdepartmental coordination were quantified to assess the effectiveness of epidemic prevention and control efforts. Wilcoxon signed-rank test was adopted to statistically analyze the differences between the indicators before and after the epidemic.[Results]The average overall coordination level for major epidemic prevention and control in 31 provinces (autonomous regions, and municipalities) increased from 43.06% to 97.62%, and the average coordination levels in the eastern, central, and western China soared from 42.29%, 37.50%, and 47.46%, to 98.81%, 96.20%, and 97.46%, respectively, with statistically significant differences (all P<0.05). In terms of department categorization, coordination levels in the professional departments and the key support departments peaked at 100.00%, while other support departments rose to 95.43%, with an increase of 77.15%, 181.85%, and 139.89%, respectively, exhibiting noteworthy statistically significant differences (all P<0.001).[Conclusion]The scope of coordination departments of China's major epidemic prevention and control exists a remarkable surge following the COVID-19 outbreak, notable heightened coordination is particularly observed among the key support departments. Future endeavors should prioritize the roles played by diverse departments in epidemic prevention and control, enhancing both the clarity of departmental responsibilities and the effectiveness of interdepartmental coordination.

[Objective]To systematically evaluate the public health governance capacity of 40 cities in Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Anhui Provinces, providing a scientific evaluation basis for building a "Healthy Yangtze River Delta".[Methods]A comprehensive collection of policy documents, public information reports, and research literature related to public health governance capacity in Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Anhui Provinces was conducted, totaling 6 920 policy documents, 1 720 information reports, and 1 200 literature pieces. Based on the evaluation standards for an appropriate public health system established by the research team, the basic status of public health governance capacity was assessed to identify the strengths and weaknesses of the 40 cities.[Results]In 2022, the public health governance capacity score for the 40 cities in Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Anhui Provinces was (562.5±38.0) points. In terms of specific areas, the emergency response field received the highest score of (791.4±49.7) points, while the chronic disease prevention and control field received the lowest score of (368.2±29.6) points. The Jiangsu-Zhejiang-Anhui region has largely achieved the strategic priority of health, gradually improved public health legal regulations, and established a basic organizational framework with a solid foundation for information and data infrastructure. However, challenges still need to be addressed, such as unstable government funding for public health, unclear departmental responsibilities, and barriers to information interoperability.[Conclusion]The public health governance capacity of the 40 cities in Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Anhui Province has been at a moderate level, but disparities have still existed across regions and fields. In the future, while continuing to deepen existing advantages, it is essential to accurately identify the causes of problems, establish a long-term and stable investment mechanism, enhance information connectivity mechanisms, further clarify departmental responsibilities, and promote the achievement of the "Healthy Yangtze River Delta" goal.

[Objective]To understand the uncorrected visual acuity, spherical equivalent and hyperopia reserve of 6-8-year-old primary school students in Jing'an District of Shanghai, and to provide a scientific basis for further myopia prevention and control.[Methods]A total of 619 children aged between 6-8 years old from three primary schools in Jing'an District were selected by cluster sampling method for uncorrected eye visual acuity examination and diopter examination after cycloplegia (mydriasis).[Results]The mean uncorrected visual acuity of the 619 students aged 6-8 years old was (4.9±0.2), and the mean spherical equivalent was (0.84±1.11) D. The difference in uncorrected visual acuity was not statistically significant as the age increased (F=0.057, P=0.812), but the spherical equivalent decreased with the increase of age, showing a statistically significant difference (F=26.533, P<0.001). There was no statistically significant difference in uncorrected visual acuity(t=-1.614, P=0.107) and spherical equivalent (t=-1.675, P=0.094) between students of different genders. Finally, among the 619 students,59.80% of them had abnormal uncorrected visual acuity, 34.90% had insufficient hyperopia reserve, and only 5.30% had sufficient hyperopia reserve. Besides, the proportion of abnormal uncorrected visual acuity in 7-year-old students was 67.50%, higher than that of students with other ages, and the difference was statistically significant (2trend=29.729, P<0.001). While the difference in abnormal uncorrected visual acuity between students of different genders was not statistically significant (2=0.068, P=0.967).[Conclusion]The deficiency of hyperopia reserve in 6-8-year-old students in Jing'an District of Shanghai is serious. Attention should be paid to the visual acuity of school-aged children in lower grades, and intervention measures should be actively carried out to slow down the progression of myopia.

[Objective]To perform a genome-wide association study of rubella virus vaccine strain BRD-Ⅱ, so as to fully grasp the sequence characteristics of this genome.[Methods]Second-generation sequencing method was used to conduct the whole-genome sequencing on the vaccine strain BRD-Ⅱ, and the affinity tree of this genome with some vaccine strains and wild-type rubella virus strains was analyzed using the maximum likelihood method. The average genetic distance of nucleic acid sequence of each vaccine strain protein was determined. And homology comparison of structural proteins of each rubella vaccine strain, plus the comparison between this genome with the AY258323.1 genome sequence, were conducted to analyze the homology of E1 protein between the wild-type rubella virus reference strain and vaccine strain BRD-Ⅱ.[Results]The sequencing results showed that the BRD-Ⅱ strain was a single-molecule single-stranded positive-strand ribonucleic acid(RNA), composed of 9 778 nucleotides, with a GC content of 69.35 %. The C protein was composed of 300 amino acids, the E2 glycoprotein was composed of 282 amino acids, and the E1 glycoprotein was composed of 481 amino acids. The results of preliminary analysis showed that the average genetic distances of nucleic acid sequences were 0.066 700 for the P150 protein, 0.061 933 for the P90 protein, 0.057 850 for the C protein, 0.068 167 for the E2 protein, and 0.068 833 for the E1 protein, respectively. The amino acid sequences in the E2 protein and E1 protein regions of the two BRD-Ⅱ strains did not change, confirming the conserved regions of the E1 protein by comparison.[Conclusion]The sequence characteristics of the genome are clarified, which have laid a broad foundation for the subsequent detection of the genetic stability of the main antigen genes.
