    Abstract Tunnel excavation causes geological, hydrological, environmental and social changes. The effects of groundwater level changes caused by tunnelling on tree growth have been poorly understood. Dendrochronology was used to evaluate the impact of groundwater level drawdown on tree growth. Tree cores of Masson pines were collected from the areas affected by tunnel construction in the Zhongliang Mountains of Chongqing in south-western China to study the effects of tunnel excavation on the growth rate of trees by comparing with tree cores collected from unaffected areas. Excavation and early operation of the first tunnel in the Zhongliang Mountains from 1968 to 1984 caused a groundwater table drawdown in both karst aquifer and non-karst aquifer. The lowered groundwater table significantly reduced the growth rate of pine trees, and the low growth rate remained for 15 years. The effect was experienced up to at least 1 km from the tunnel axis. The decline in tree growth was higher in karst than in non-karst areas, though the effects on the trees of the karst areas were lagging. The high precipitation in 1998 contributed to groundwater recovery, after which the tree growth recovered moderately but not to the original level. Groundwater leakage of the recently excavated tunnels did not affect pine trees heavily, probably because the pines had adapted to the new hydrogeological conditions and new strategies in tunnel inflow management were adopted in the recently excavated tunnels. The use of tree growth rate as an indicator of groundwater table change in tunnelling areas offers a new option to study environmental impacts and the extent of tunnelling effects.

    Abstract Stripe rust, caused by Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici (Pst), is one of the most widespread diseases of wheat worldwide. Resistance breeding is constantly pursued for decades to tackle the variations of prevalent Pst races. Zhongliang 16 has wide adaptability, strong resistance to abiotic stresses, excellent biological characteristics, and higher resistance to stripe rust. In this study, Zhongliang 16 was crossed with a susceptible genotype, Mingxian 169, to identify the resistance gene(s). Seedlings of the parents, F1, F2, F2:3, and BC1 progenies were tested for resistance with Chinese Pst race CYR29 and CYR30 in greenhouse conditions. Zhongliang 16 possessed different dominant genes for resistance to each race, temporarily designated as Yrzhong16-1 and Yrzhong16-2. Yrzhong16-1 conferring resistance to CYR29 was flanked by Xbarc212 and Xwmc177 on the short arm of 2A at genetic distances of 5.4 and 6.6 cM; and Yrzhong16-2 conferring resistance to CYR30 was flanked by Xgwm644 and Xbarc95 on the long arm of 7B at genetic distances of 2.3 and 3.5 cM, respectively. Chromosomal locations and race and allelism tests indicated that the two genes are different from previously reported stripe rust resistance genes. These genes and their flanking markers should be useful in marker assisted selection-breeding programs against wheat stripe rust.

    Abstract Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivar Zhongliang 21 displays resistance to 7 prevalent Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici (Pst) races from China. The resistance gene(s) carried by this cultivar was identified using molecular markers in combination with phenotypic evaluation. Seedlings of the F₁, F₂, and BC₁ generations from the cross between Zhongliang 21 (resistant) and Mingxian 169 (susceptible), as well as the parents, were inoculated with Pst race CYR30 in greenhouse, and the resistance was evaluated 15-16 d after inoculation. The results showed that the stripe rust resistance in Zhongliang 21 was conferred by a single dominant gene, which was designated tentatively Yrzhong21. Based on bulked segregant analysis, 10 simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers located on chromosome 5AL were identified to be linked to Yrzhong21, of which Xgwm186 andXbarc165 were the closest flanking markers with genetic distances of 7.4 and 2.7 cM, respectively. In combination with analyses of chromosomal location, reactions to various pathotypes, and pedigree, Yrzhong21 was deduced as a novel gene resistant to stripe rust. Eighteen wheat cultivars (lines) in Zhongliang series were further screened with markers Xgwm186 andXbarc165. Only 3 cultivars produced identical banding pattern to that of Zhongliang 21. This result primarily indicates that only 17% of Zhongliang cultivars (lines) might carry Yrzhong21. This resistance gene is promising in wheat breeding programs for strip rust resistance.

    Abstract Background: In the realm of thoracic surgery, addressing chest wall defects accompanied by infections remains a formidable task. Despite the availability of a spectrum of surgical options, attaining clinical resolution is particularly challenging in intricate cases involving extensive chest wall defects in elderly patients. Thorough debridement followed by the utilization of autologous tissue for repair and reconstruction has emerged as a prevalent approach in current clinical practice. Case presentation: Herein, we present a 72-year-old female patient with a large chest wall defect and infection. She has experienced left breast cancer surgery, multi cycle radiotherapy and chemotherapy. Nine months ago, there was yellow purulent fluid in the left chest wall. She had undergone debridement in other hospital, and the treatment effect was poor. At our hospital, Chest computed tomography (CT) imaging revealed a soft tissue anomaly on the left side of the chest wall, along with partial rib bone deterioration. Considering the patient's clinical presentation and radiological findings, a tentative diagnosis of an infected chest wall defect and chronic osteomyelitis was established. Consequently, daily dressing changes were deemed necessary for the patient's infected chest wound. Surgery for chest wall repair and reconstruction was scheduled once the wound area exhibited cleanliness with emerging granulation tissue. Preoperatively, a myocutaneous flap of an appropriate size was meticulously planned. During the surgical procedure, initial debridement of the infected chest wall area was conducted, followed by the strategic placement of a harvested pedicled latissimus dorsi myocutaneous flap to rectify the defect. Postoperative care involved stringent anti-infective measures, anti-spasmodic treatment, and preventive anticoagulation, accompanied by vigilant monitoring of the myocutaneous flap's viability and the healing progress of the defect site.

    Abstract Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has been a global public health event since 2019. Real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) assays of upper respiratory tract specimens were used as the most common method for confirmation of SARS-CoV-2. Patients diagnosed with coronavirus disease 2019 and hospitalized in Cancer Center of Wuhan Union Hospital were retrospectively enrolled. Epidemiological, clinical, and laboratory records were analyzed with highlights on the pattern of results of repeated RT-PCR tests. Nine hundred eighty-four patients admitted to hospital between February 13, 2020 to March 10, 2020 were enrolled. The median age was 62.0 years (interquartile range 49.0-68.0) and 44.5% was male. Three thousand-three hundred eleven specimens were collected for RT-PCR tests with a median of 3 tests (interquartile range 2.0-4.0) per patient. Three hundred sixty-two (36.8%) patients showed positive records from repeated RT-PCR tests. For the 362 confirmed patients, 147 cases received further RT-PCR tests after 2 consecutive negative records of SARS-CoV-2 and 38 (26%) of them obtained a positive result. Ten (23%) of 43 patients showed positive results after 3 consecutive negative tests and 4 (24%) of 17 patients were positive after 4 negative tests. Consecutive negative RT-PCR tests with respiratory specimens could not guarantee a viral clearance.
