    Abstract As the pandemic9s dynamics changed, many municipalities lifted face wearing requirement in school which was initially implemented to mitigate the transmission of COVID-19. This study examines the effects of lifting mask mandates on COVID-19 transmission within Massachusetts school districts. We first replicated previous research by Cowger et al. (2022) utilizing a Difference-in-Difference (DID) model. Then, we back project the case infection and calculate the Rt value to redo the DID analysis. However, when shifting the outcome measurement to the reproductive number (Rt), our findings suggest that lifting mask mandates can only significantly influence the Rt first two weeks post-intervention. This implies that while mask mandate plays a role in mitigation, its lifting does not drastically influence COVID-19 transmissibility in the long term.

    Abstract Background: School based-measures such as school closure and school holidays have been considered a viable intervention during the hand-foot-mouth disease (HFMD) epidemic. The aim of this study was to explore the association of nationwide public health and social measures (PHSMs) including planned school vacation on the transmissibility and attack rate of the HFMD epidemic in South Korea.
    Methods: In this study, we used Korean national surveillance data on HFMD from 2014 to 2019 to estimate the temporal changes in HFMD transmissibility (instantaneous reproductive number, R
    Results: We found that school vacations and 2015 PHSMs were associated with the reduced R
    Conclusions: PHSMs likely have a larger association with reduced HFMD transmissibility than school-based measures alone (i.e. school vacations). Preventive measures targeting preschoolers could be considered as potential options for reducing the future burden of HFMD.

    Abstract T and B cells participate in the development of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). BTB and CNC homology 2 (Bach2) is an irreplaceable regulator in the T and B lineages that helps to maintain immune homeostasis. However, the function of Bach2 in the pathogenesis of SLE has not been studied in depth. Flow cytometry and qRT-PCR were used to assess Bach2 levels, bisulfite sequencing PCR was used to measure the methylation level, and silencing by electroporation and stimulation with a cytokine concentration gradient were used to investigate the effect of Bach2 on T cells. Bach2 expression was elevated in the helper T-cell subsets (T follicular helper, Th1, Th2, Th17, and Treg cells) of SLE patients and negatively correlated with disease severity and autoantibody levels.

    Abstract The dysfunction of the nervous system contributes to neuropathic pain. Long noncoding RNAs are reported to participate in neuropathic pain. Recently, Linc00052 is implicated to be closely associated with multiple diseases. Nevertheless, the mechanisms of Linc00052 remain barely explored in neuropathic pain development. Currently, spinal nerve ligation (SNL) triggered neuropathic pain was employed in our investigation. Here, we assessed the function of Linc00052 in SNL rat models. Interestingly, we reported Linc00052 was significantly elevated in SNL rats. Loss of Linc00052 could reduce neuropathic pain progression via regulating the behaviors of neuropathic pain. Additionally, knockdown of Linc00052 repressed the processes of neuroinflammation. Interleukin (IL)-6 and tumor necrosis factor α level were inhibited while IL-10 was induced by the silence of Linc00052. Moreover, we predicted miR-448 can serve as a target of Linc00052. miR-448 exerts a crucial power in several diseases. Currently, we exhibited miR-448 was remarkably downregulated in SNL rats. RNA immunoprecipitation experiments validated the association between miR-448 and Linc00052. Inhibition of Linc00052 could reverse the roles of miR-448 on neuropathic pain development. Furthermore, Janus kinase 1 (JAK1) was displayed as the putative target of miR-448 in the present investigation. It was showed that JAK1 was induced in SNL rats. Loss of miR-448 could dramatically induce the expression of JAK1, which was rescued by knockdown of Linc00052. Taken these together, our study implied that Linc00052 functioned as a novel target of neuropathic pain via sponging miR-448 and regulating JAK1.

    Abstract Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is an autoimmune disease that involves multiple immune cells. Due to its complex pathogenesis, the effectiveness of traditional treatment methods is limited. Many patients have developed resistance to conventional treatment or are not sensitive to steroid and immunosuppressant therapy, and so emerging therapeutic antibodies have become an alternative and have been shown to work well in many patients with moderate and severe SLE. This review summarizes the biological agents that are in the preclinical and clinical trial study of SLE. In addition to the various monoclonal antibodies that have been studied for a long time, such as belimumab and rituximab, we focused on another treatment for SLE, bispecific antibodies (BsAbs) such as tibulizumab, which simultaneously targets multiple pathogenic cytokines or pathways. Although the application of BsAbs in cancer has been intensively studied, their application in autoimmune diseases is still in the infant stage. This unique combined mechanism of action may provide a novel therapeutic strategy for SLE.

    Abstract Objective: To evaluate the effect of levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine system (LNG-IUS) plus oral megestrol acetate (MA) as fertility-preserving treatment in patients with early-stage endometrial cancer (EEC).
    Methods: In this single-center, phase II study with open-label, randomized and controlled design, young patients (18-45 years) diagnosed with primary EEC were screened, who strongly required fertility-preserving treatment. Patients were randomly assigned (1:1) into MA group (160 mg oral daily) or MA (160 mg oral daily) plus LNG-IUS group. Pathologic evaluation on endometrium retrieved by hysteroscopy was performed every 3 months. The primary endpoint was complete response (CR) rate within 16 weeks of treatment. The secondary endpoints were CR rate within 32 weeks of treatment, adverse events, recurrent and pregnancy rate.
    Results: Between July 2017 and June 2020, 63 patients were enrolled and randomly assigned. Totally 56 patients (26 in MA group; 28 in MA + LNG-IUS group) were included into primary-endpoint analyses. The median follow-up was 31.6 months (range, 3.1-94.0). No significant difference in 16-week CR rate were found between MA and MA + LNG-IUS groups (19.2% vs. 25.0%, p=0.610; odds ratio=1.40; 95% confidence interval=0.38-5.12), while the 32-week CR rates were also similar (57.1% and 61.5%, p=0.743), accordingly. More women in MA + LNG-IUS group experienced vaginal hemorrhage (46.4% vs. 16.1%; p=0.012) compared with MA group. No intergroup difference was found regarding recurrence or pregnancy rate.
    Conclusion: Compared with MA alone, the addition of LNG-IUS may not improve the early CR rate for EEC, and may produce more adverse events instead.

    Abstract Background: Dose fractionation of a coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccine could effectively accelerate global vaccine coverage, while supporting evidence of efficacy, immunogenicity, and safety are unavailable, especially with emerging variants.
    Methods: We systematically reviewed clinical trials that reported dose-finding results and estimated the dose-response relationship of neutralizing antibodies (nAbs) of COVID-19 vaccines using a generalized additive model. We predicted the vaccine efficacy against both ancestral and variants, using previously reported correlates of protection and cross-reactivity. We also reviewed and compared seroconversion to nAbs, T cell responses, and safety profiles between fractional and standard dose groups.
    Results: We found that dose fractionation of mRNA and protein subunit vaccines could induce SARS-CoV-2-specific nAbs and T cells that confer a reasonable level of protection (i.e., vaccine efficacy > 50%) against ancestral strains and variants up to Omicron. Safety profiles of fractional doses were non-inferior to the standard dose.
    Conclusions: Dose fractionation of mRNA and protein subunit vaccines may be safe and effective, which would also vary depending on the characteristics of emerging variants and updated vaccine formulations.
