Article Abstract
Due to low doses of infection, an efficient and sensitive virus detection method is necessary to detect low amounts of goose hemorrhagic polyomavirus (GHPV). In this study, we have developed a TaqMan real-time PCR (qPCR) specific assay for the detection of GHPV. Specificity assay showed no cross-reactions with other common waterfowl viruses. The standard curve had a linear correlation of 0.997 and efficiency of 99% between the cycle threshold value and the logarithm of the plasmids copy number. The possible lowest detectable concentration was 35.4 copies/μl; 100 times more sensitive than conventional PCR (detection limit, 3.54 × 10 copies/μl). Domestic Jinyun Sheldrakes ducks and their embryonated eggs were found positive of GHPV infection which provides evidence of possible vertical transmission of GHPV.

Migratory birds are critical global carriers and vectors of various viruses, potentially driving the mutation and transmission of novel pathogens, especially zoonotic viruses. Despite advancements in sequencing technologies, the viral diversity in wintering Siberian cranes () and wild geese ( spp.) remains poorly understood.

Polyamines have been reported to play a role in the regulation of follicular development and steroidogenesis, the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. This study examined the effects of spermidine-enriched diets on ovarian follicle development and steroid hormone synthesis in Sichuan white geese. Forty healthy female Sichuan white geese were randomly assigned to five groups(Con, 5SPG, 10SPG, 5SPD, and 10SPD).

Background: Hypertension is one of the prominent modifiable risk factors for cardiovascular diseases (CVD), and its prevalence is continuously increasing each year, contributing significantly to mortality and disability in older adults in China and even worldwide. The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of declined intrinsic capacity (IC) on the risk of 1-year functional disability in older hypertensive inpatients.
Methods: A total of 233 hypertensive elderly from Zhejiang Hospital in China were included in this retrospective observational study.
Establishment of a YKL-40 time-resolved Immunoassay and Application in Diabetic Kidney Disease.

To develop a highly sensitive, wide-linear-range time-resolved fluorescence immunoassay (TRFIA) to detect serum YKL-40 and to measure its concentrations in patients with diabetic kidney disease (DKD). A double-antibody sandwich method was employed to establish the YKL-40 TRFIA, which utilizes two antibodies targeting distinct epitopes on the YKL-40 antigen (a coating antibody and a labeled antibody). The assay's linearity, sensitivity, accuracy, specificity, and recovery rate were evaluated.

Background: Alcoholism is a significant contributor to the development of alcoholic liver disease, for which no universally accepted and effective treatment currently exists. A precursor of NAD, β-Nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN), has revealed potential therapeutic benefits. However, its effectiveness in preventing ethanol-induced liver damage remains uncertain.
