Inactive BTV vaccines have been successful in field trials in some areas, and inactivated vaccines are considered safer. However, information about the effect of the viral antigen level on the serological response and efficiency of the inactive BTV-16 vaccine is lacking. In the present study, the serological response and efficiency of the viral antigen concentration in the binary ethylenimine-inactivated Chinese BTV serotype-16 vaccine were investigated. The viral antigens in the viral suspension (VS) were quantified using a modified BTV AC-ELISA method. Four batches of vaccine containing 1, 5, 10, and 50 μg/ml of viral antigen were generated from the VS. Four groups of naive Chinese sheep were vaccinated with the different vaccine batches, and the serological response and vaccine efficiency were investigated before and after challenge infection. The vaccines containing 10 and 50 μg/ml of viral antigen induced significant ELISA and neutralizing antibody titers 14 days after vaccination, whereas the vaccines containing 1 and 5 μg/ml of viral antigen did not have these effects. A booster immunization at 21 days enhanced all groups’ antibody titers;however, the increased titer was related to the viral antigen level. In contrast to the serological response, the viral antigen level of the vaccines did not have a significant effect on the vaccine efficiency. With the exception of one sheep from the 5 μg/ml viral antigen group, all vaccinated sheep from the four antigen level groups showed strong resistance to infection based on their clinical symptoms, rectal temperatures and viremia. Collectively, these data suggested that viral antigen levels from 1 to 50 μg/ml had a significant effect on the serological response of the animals but a limited effect on the vaccine efficiency. The BTV-16 vaccine containing 1 μg/ml of viral antigen was sufficient to achieve high efficiency, but only the vaccines with more than 10 μg/ml of antigen induced a significant antibody response. To obtain a better serological response, we suggest the use of vaccines with more than 10 μg/ml of viral antigen. The findings in the study will be useful for BTV vaccine production.展开更多

文摘Background:Infected pancreatic necrosis(IPN)is a highly morbid local complication following necrotizing pancreatitis.Early enteral nutrition has been proven to be effective in preventing IPN.This study aimed to assess the association between the trajectory of prealbumin(PAB)during the early phase of acute pancreatitis(AP)and the incidence of IPN and other clinical outcomes.Methods:This retrospective,dual-centered study screened patients with AP admitted to the Center of Acute Pancreatitis,Jinling Hospital and the Affiliated Hospital of Zunyi Medical University from January 2018 to December 2022.The PAB levels during the first week after admission were collected.The primary outcome was the incidence of IPN within 90 days after AP onset.Group-based trajectory modelling was performed to describe the trajectory of PAB levels over time.A Cox proportional hazard model was used to facilitate the interpretation of the time-varying hazard ratio(HR)between PAB and outcomes.Fine-Gray sub-distribution hazard model was adopted for sensitivity analysis.Results:A total of 373 patients were included,of whom 82(22.0%)were diagnosed with IPN within 90 days.The trajectory model assigned 232 patients to the low-level PAB(L-PAB)group and 141 to the high-level PAB(H-PAB)group.The incidence of 90-day IPN in the L-PAB group was significantly higher than that in the H-PAB group(26.7%vs.14.2%,P=0.005).The multivariate Cox regression model showed that a high PAB trajectory was associated with a lower incidence of IPN(HR=0.52,95%CI:0.30-0.89;P=0.017)after adjustment for potential confounders.In the sensitivity analysis,taking death as a com-peting risk,high PAB trajectory remained significantly associated with a lower incidence of IPN in the Fine-Gray model(HR=0.55,95%CI:0.33-0.92;P=0.022).Conclusions:A high PAB trajectory within the first week of AP was significantly associated with a lower incidence of IPN within 90 days after AP onset.Dynamic monitoring of PAB levels in the early phase of AP may play an important role in stratifying patients at high risk of developing IPN.
