Abstract
Dengue fever, a mosquito-borne disease in tropical and subtropical climates caused by the dengue virus (DENV), has become a major social and economic burden in recent years. However, current primary detection methods are inadequate for early diagnosis of DENV because they are either time-consuming, expensive, or require training. Non-structural protein 1 (NS1) is secreted during DENV infection and is thus considered a suitable biomarker for the development of an early detection method. In the present study, we developed a detection method for the NS1 protein based on a previously reported thio-NAD cycling ELISA (i.e., ultrasensitive ELISA) and successfully achieved a LOD of 1.152 pg/mL. The clinical diagnosis potential of the detection system was also evaluated by using 85 patient specimens, inclusive of 60 DENV-positive and 25 DENV-negative specimens confirmed by the NAAT method. The results revealed 98.3% (59/60) sensitivity and 100% (25/25) specificity, which was in almost perfect agreement with the NAAT data with a kappa coefficient of 0.972. The present study demonstrates the diagnostic potential of using an ultrasensitive ELISA as a low-cost, easy-to-use method for the detection of DENV compared with NAAT and could be of great benefit in low-income countries.

Key content
- Pretraining has recently greatly promoted the development of natural language processing (NLP)
- We show that M6 outperforms the baselines in multimodal downstream tasks, and the large M6 with 10 parameters can reach a better performance
- We propose a method called M6 that is able to process information of multiple modalities and perform both single-modal and cross-modal understanding and generation
- The model is scaled to large model with 10 billion parameters with sophisticated deployment, and the 10 -parameter M6-large is the largest pretrained model in Chinese
- Experimental results show that our proposed M6 outperforms the baseline in a number of downstream tasks concerning both single modality and multiple modalities We will continue the pretraining of extremely large models by increasing data to explore the limit of its performance
