ABSTRACT

A sesquiterpene natural substance called artemisinin was discovered in Artemisia annua. One of its derivatives, artesunate (ART), has the properties of economy, immediate effect, low toxicity, and good tolerance. Since it has a quick and powerful killing effect on plasmodium in the erythrocyte phase and can quickly handle clinical seizure and symptoms, it is currently mostly utilized to treat cerebral malaria and other severe instances of malaria. In addition, it has antitumor, antivirus, anti-hepatic fibrosis, anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, hepatocyte protection, immunological modulation, and other pharmacological properties and can inhibit cell proliferation, induce cell apoptosis, and reduce the incidence of sepsis. In many countries, artemisinin-based combination therapies (ACTs), such as artemether-benflumetol, artesunate-amodiaquine, and artemether-lumefantrine, are the first-line treatments for malaria. Recent research on artesunate by Chinese and international scholars has revealed that compared with monotherapy, artesunate combination therapy offers more benefits in terms of improving pharmacological effects, shortening the duration of medicine, and minimizing adverse effects. Through systematic retrieval of Web of Science Core Collection and integration through CiteSpace (6.2.1) software, this article reviewed the mechanism of artesunate combined with other medications with regard to antimalarial, antitumor, antibacterial, and antiviral features in the previous five years, so as to provide some theoretical basis for rational development and utilization of ART and new drug research and development.

ABSTRACT

This paper summarized professor ZHANG Lei′s experience in treating scleroderma from “extraordinary pathogens entering collaterals”. The basic pathogenesis of scleroderma is “extraordinary pathogens entering the collaterals”, and extraordinary pathogens can be divided into external and internal categories. External extraordinary pathogens are mostly exogenous wind, cold and damp pathogens, and the pathogenesis is wind, cold and damp invading skin stria and retaining collaterals. Most of the endogenous extraordinary pathogens are turbid phlegm and blood stasis, and the pathogenesis is endogenous phlegm and stasis leaving the channels and overflowing the collaterals, and blocking the collaterals. Blocked by extraordinary pathogens for a long time, the long illness will lead to deficiency and develop into a syndrome of collaterals excess and channels deficiency. Therefore, professor ZHANG creats Tengluo Beverage (藤络饮) as the basic formula to unblock collaterals and dispel pathogens, and recommends to add or subtract it according to the different syndrome and pathogenic characteristics of the edema stage, sclerosis stage, and atrophy stage. In the edema stage, it is advised to expel wind, remove dampness and unblock the collaterals, while in the sclerosis stage, the method of dissolving phlegm, expelling stasis and unblocking collaterals should be used; in the atrophic stage, it is suggested to differentiate the deficiency of qi, blood, yin and yang, and eliminate extraordinary pathogens on the basis of reinforcing healthy qi .

ABSTRACT

Objective@#To study the role of rs 12145833 polymorphism of SDCCAG 8 gene in the intervention of childhood obesity, so as to provide scientific basis for formulating personalized intervention measures based on genetic background in children with obesity.@*Methods@#From September 2018 to June 2019, a total of 393 children aged 8-10 years in Beijing were enrolled in a cluster randomized controlled trial. Eight schools were randomly allocated into intervention group and control group at a ratio of 1∶1. Saliva DNA samples were collected to detect rs 12145833 polymorphism of SDCCAG 8 gene. The intervention group received a comprehensive intervention, while the control group received usual practice. Intervention measures included diet improvement, sports, school amd family sport. The obesity related indicators were measured at baseline and after the end of intervention 1 academic year. Multiple linear regression and Logistic regression were used to analyze the interaction between genes and intervention on obesity indicators.@*Results@#In the intervention group, children with TT genotype of rs 12145833 of the SDCCAG 8 gene had less increase in systolic( β=4.56, 95%CI=1.84-7.28, P <0.01) and diastolic blood pressure( β=2.59, 95%CI=0.45-4.73, P <0.05) than those with GT and GG genotypes. In the control group, the systolic blood pressure of children with TT genotype increased more than those with GT and GG genotype( β=-2.86, 95%CI=-5.63--0.83, P <0.05). There was an interaction between rs 12145833 polymorphism of SDCCAG 8 gene and intervention on systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure and body fat percentage in children( P <0.05).@*Conclusion@#Children with TT genotype of rs 12145833 in the SDCCAG 8 gene are more sensitive to obesity intervention than those with GG and GT genotypes, especially in the improvement of systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure and body fat percentage. Further trials to study the role of rs 12145833 polymorphism of SDCCAG 8 gene in the intervention of childhood obesity among different ethnic populations are needed.

ABSTRACT

The condition of patients with severe traumatic brain injury (sTBI) complicated by corona virus 2019 disease (COVID-19) is complex. sTBI can significantly increase the probability of COVID-19 developing into severe or critical stage, while COVID-19 can also increase the surgical risk of sTBI and the severity of postoperative lung lesions. There are many contradictions in the treatment process, which brings difficulties to the clinical treatment of such patients. Up to now, there are few clinical studies and therapeutic norms relevant to sTBI complicated by COVID-19. In order to standardize the clinical treatment of such patients, Critical Care Medicine Branch of China International Exchange and Promotive Association for Medical and Healthcare and Editorial Board of Chinese Journal of Trauma organized relevant experts to formulate the Chinese expert consensus on clinical treatment of adult patients with severe traumatic brain injury complicated by corona virus infection 2019 ( version 2023) based on the joint prevention and control mechanism scheme of the State Council and domestic and foreign literatures on sTBI and COVID-19 in the past 3 years of the international epidemic. Fifteen recommendations focused on emergency treatment, emergency surgery and comprehensive management were put forward to provide a guidance for the diagnosis and treatment of sTBI complicated by COVID-19.

ABSTRACT

As a special mode of tumor metastasis, perineural invasion has been paid more and more attention. It is closely related to prognosis, recurrence and metastasis of tumor after surgery. As the most common malignancy of the biliary tract, perineural invasion is also an inde-pendent prognostic risk factor for gallbladder cancer due to its anatomical location, lymphatic reflux, blood perfusion and innervation. However, there are few studies on perineural invasion in gallbla-dder cancer, especially on its mechanism. By analyzing the general situation and recent progress of perineural invasion in gallbladder cancer, the authors mainly introduce the perineural invasion mechanism, perineural invasion rate of gallbladder cancer, relationship between perineural invasion and the clinical pathologic characteristic, the correlation with the prognosis, relationship with surgi-cal procedures and postoperative adjuvant therapy.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the influencing factors of recurrence after radical resection of middle and low rectal cancer, and to establish a prediction model based on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) measurement of perirectal fat content and investigate its application value.Methods:The retrospective cohort study was constructed. The clinicopathological data of 254 patients with middle and low rectal cancer who were admitted to Tianjin Union Medical Center from December 2016 to December 2021 were collected. There were 188 males and 66 females, aged (61±9)years. All patients underwent radical resection of rectal cancer and routine pelvic MRI examina-tion. Observation indicators: (1) follow-up and quantitative measurement of perirectal fat content; (2) factors influencing tumor recurrence after radical resection of middle and low rectal cancer; (3) construction and evaluation of the nomogram prediction model of tumor recurrence after radical resection of middle and low rectal cancer. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, and measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M(rang) and M( Q1, Q2). Count data were described as absolute numbers. Univariate and multivariate analyses were conducted using the COX regression model. The rms software package (4.1.3 version) was used to construct the nomogram and calibration curve. The survival software package (4.1.3 version) was used to calculate the C-index. The ggDCA software package (4.1.3 version) was used for decision curve analysis. Results:(1) Follow-up and quantitative measurement of perirectal fat content. All 254 patients were followed up for 41.0(range, 1.0?59.0)months after surgery. During the follow-up period, there were 81 patients undergoing tumor recurrence with the time to tumor recurrence as 15.0(range, 1.0?43.0)months, and there were 173 patients without tumor recurrence. The preoperative rectal mesangial fascia envelope volume, preoperative rectal mesangial fat area, preoperative rectal posterior mesangial thickness were 159.1(68.6,266.5)cm3, 17.0(5.1,34.4)cm2, 1.2(0.4,3.2)cm in the 81 patients with tumor recurrence, and 178.5(100.1,310.1)cm3, 19.8(5.3,40.2)cm2 and 1.6(0.3,3.7)cm in the 173 patients without tumor recurrence. (2) Factors influencing tumor recurrence after radical resection of middle and low rectal cancer. Results of multivariate analysis showed that poorly differentiated tumor, tumor pathological N staging as N1?N2 stage, rectal posterior mesangial thickness ≤1.43 cm, magnetic resonance extra mural vascular invasion, tumor invasion surrounding structures were independent risk factors of tumor recurrence after radical resection of middle and low rectal cancer ( hazard ratio=1.64, 2.20, 3.19, 1.69, 4.20, 95% confidence interval as 1.03?2.61, 1.29?3.74, 1.78?5.71, 1.02?2.81, 2.05?8.63, P<0.05). (3) Construction and evaluation of the nomogram prediction model of tumor recurrence after radical resection of middle and low rectal cancer. Based on the results of multivariate analysis, the tumor differentiation, tumor pathological N staging, rectal posterior mesangial thickness, magnetic resonance extra mural vascular invasion, tumor invasion surrounding structures were included to construct the nomogram predic-tion model of tumor recurrence after radical resection of middle and low rectal cancer. The total score of these index in the nomogram prediction model corresponded to the probability of post-operative tumor recurrence. The C-index of the nomogram was 0.80, indicating that the prediction model with good prediction accuracy. Results of calibration curve showed that the nomogram prediction model with good prediction ability. Results of decision curve showed that the prediction probability threshold range was wide when the nomogram prediction model had obvious net benefit rate, and the model had good clinical practicability. Conclusions:Poorly differentiated tumor, tumor pathological N staging as N1?N2 stage, rectal posterior mesangial thickness ≤1.43 cm, magnetic resonance extra mural vascular invasion, tumor invasion surrounding structures are independent risk factors of tumor recurrence after radical resection of middle and low rectal cancer. Nomogram prediction model based on MRI measurement of perirectal fat content can effectively predict the probability of postoperative tumor recurrence.

ABSTRACT

Chemicals possessing reactive electrophiles can denature innate proteins leading to undesired toxicity, and the overdose-induced liver injury by drugs containing electrophiles has been one of the major causes of non-approval and withdraw by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Elucidating the associated proteins could guide the future development of therapeutics to circumvent these drugs' toxicities, but was largely limited by the current probing tools due to the steric hindrance of chemical tags including the common "click chemistry" labels. Taking the widely used non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug acetaminophen (APAP) as an example, we hereby designed and synthesized an APAP analogue using fluorine as a steric-free label. Cell toxicity studies indicated our analogue has similar activity to the parent drug. This analogue was applied to the mouse hepatocellular proteome together with the corresponding desthiobiotin-SH probe for subsequent fluorine-thiol displacement reactions (FTDRs). This set of probes has enabled the labeling and pull-down of hepatocellular target proteins of the APAP metabolite as validated by Western blotting. Our preliminary validation results supported the interaction of APAP with the thioredoxin protein, which is an important redox protein for normal liver function. These results demonstrated that our probes confer minimal steric perturbation and mimic the compounds of interest, allowing for global profiling of interacting proteins. The fluorine-thiol displacement probing system could emerge as a powerful tool to enable the investigation of drug-protein interactions in complex biological environments.

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the dietary intake of preschool children in Northwest China, and provide scientific basis for studying the dietary patterns and characteristics of preschool children and formulating targeted dietary interventions. Methods Using the self-designed “Semi-quantitative Food Frequency Questionnaire for Preschool Children in Northwest China“, a convenient sampling method was used to investigate the dietary intake of children aged 3 to 7 years in Northwest China. The factor analysis combined with the cluster method was used to extract the dietary pattern. Results Through factor analysis of the average daily food intake of preschool children, the results show that the KMO test value was 0.82, Bartlett’s test value was 4 528.97, and the associated probability was <0.001, so factor analysis can be performed. In order to obtain more typical factor components so that the results were easier to explain, under the guidance of nutrition experts, the first 4 common factors were finally retained for analysis, and the cumulative variance contribution rate was 62.17%. On this basis, the number of clusters was 4, and the K-means cluster analysis method was used to cluster the factor scores of various foods for preschool children. According to the proportions of various foods and the characteristics of the foods, The dietary patterns of preschool children can be divided into staple food-based dietary patterns, high-protein dietary patterns, healthy dietary patterns, and high-sugar dietary patterns. Conclusion Using factor analysis method, the scores of each food factor of preschool children were continuous variables, and the results were highly repeatable, and subsequent analysis can be carried out. The factor analysis combined with cluster analysis method extracting the dietary pattern of preschool children that had certain degree of science. According to the characteristics of the four dietary patterns extracted in this study, children's dietary interventions can be targeted to promote children's physical and mental health.

ABSTRACT

Objective:Use linear programming model to predict the allocation of surgical nursing human resources, and optimize the allocation of nursing staff.Methods:This study was a controlled clinical trial. A total of 91 nurses from 5 surgical departments in Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University were selected by convenience sampling method. The nurses who participated in the scheduling in August and September 2020 were the routine scheduling groups, and in March and April 2021 were the linear scheduling groups. The linear programming model of surgical nursing human resources was established. The LINGO 11.0 software was used to calculate the minimum number of nurses required for the next day operation. According to the predicted results and the requirements of the operation specialty and rank level, the surgical staff was arranged for the next day. The overtime hours of nurses in the routine scheduling groups and the linear scheduling groups were compared and analyzed.Results:The number of on-duty nurses was the same in 4 groups, the overtime hours of the conventional scheduling groups in August and September 2020 and the linear scheduling groups in March and April 2021 were 865 (505, 1 435), 780 (475, 1 355), 650 (460, 910) and 720 (350, 915) min, the difference of overtime hours was statistically significant ( H=13.66, P<0.05). The overtime hours of the routine scheduling group in August 2020 were significantly different from those of the linear scheduling group in March 2021 and April 2021 respectively ( Z=-2.69, -2.55, both P<0.05). The overtime hours of the routine scheduling group in September 2020 were significantly different from those of the linear scheduling group in March 2021 and April 2021 respectively ( Z=-2.62, -2.58, both P<0.05).

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the multilocus sequence typing (MLST), clinical manifestations, and drug resistance of Salmonella typhimurium in children, thus providing references for the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of pediatric Salmonella typhimurium infection.Methods:The clinical data of patients with Salmonella typhimurium serotypes confirmed by stool or blood culture between November 2017 and October 2020 were retrospectively collected from Fujian Maternity and Child Health Hospital.MSLT and drug susceptibility test were performed on Salmonella typhimurium isolated from the samples. Kruskal- Wallis test, Chi- square test, and Fisher′ s exact probability method were employed for data analyses. Results:Salmonella typhimurium was cultured from clinical samples of 96 children, of which, 93 samples were effective, including 92 stool samples and 1 blood sample from 53 boys(56.99%) and 40 girls(43.01%). The median age of disease onset occurred at 12.0 (8.5-22.0) months, with peak months of onset ranging from July to October.According to MLST classification, 93 children were divided into ST34 classification( n=58), ST19 classification( n=22) and other classification( n=13). Respiratory symptoms were significant different among MLST classification, and ST34 type Salmonella typhimurium enteritis was more commonly accompanied by respiratory symptoms ( χ2=17.657, P<0.001; Cramer V=0.421, P<0.001). There were significant differences in the drug sensitivity to Ampicillin ( χ2=8.774, P=0.033), Piperacillin tazobactam ( χ2=6.713, P=0.022), Ciprofloxacin ( χ2=20.780, P<0.001), Sulfamethoxazole ( χ2=15.364, P=0.001), Ampicillin sulbactam ( χ2=17.626, P=0.001) and Levofloxacin ( χ2=25.648, P<0.001) among 3 groups.No significant difference was found in the sensitivity to Ceftriaxone ( χ2=1.027, P=0.621), Ceftazidime ( χ2=7.637, P=0.059), Cefepime ( χ2=6.099, P=0.116) and Cefoperazone/Sulbactam ( χ2=2.405, P=0.649). All MLST types were sensitive to Imipenem and Meropenem. Conclusions:Salmonella typhimurium infection mainly affects infants, with the peak months of onset ranging from July to October.MLST34 is the main serotype, accompanied respiratory symptoms.Antibiotics should be selected according to drug sensitivity, and third-generation cephalosporins can be selected empirically without drug susceptibility test results.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the microecological structure changes and correlation in blood, lung tissue and fecal intestine of mice with sepsis and acute lung injury.Methods:A total of 12 healthy male C57BL/6J mice were divided into the cecal ligation and perforation (CLP) group and sham operation (sham) group by random number table method, with six mice in each group. In the CLP group, acute lung injury model of sepsis mice was prepared by CLP method. In the sham group, only laparotomy but no perforation of cecal ligation was performed. Eye blood, lung tissue, and feces were collected from mice in each group 24 h after surgery. Lung tissue morphological changes were observed by HE staining, and 16s ribosome RNA sequencing was used to analyze the structural changes of microecology of the bacterial flora at each site in sepsis mice and find out the correlation.Results:(1) HE staining showed that mice in the CLP group had exudation into the alveolar cavity of the lung, disordered lung tissue structure, accompanied by a large number of inflammatory cell infiltration, and the lung histopathological score was significantly higher than that in the sham group ( P < 0.01). (2)α diversity analysis showed that there was no statistical significance in blood and fecal samples between the sham group and CLP group, while Ace index, Chao index and Simpson index in lung tissue samples were statistically significant ( P < 0.05). (3) β diversity analysis showed that the differences in blood and fecal samples were greater between the sham group and CLP group than that within the group, and analysis of Bray Curtis, weighted, and unweighted indexes were statistically significant ( P < 0.05). (4) At the phylum level, compared with the sham group, the abundance of Proteobacteria gradually increased, and the abundance of Firmicutes and actinobacteria was decreased in the CLP group. At the genus level, the sham group was dominated by Acinetobacter and Duchenne, while the CLP group was dominated by Escherichia coli and unclassified Enterobacter. Blood flora was more similar to lung tissue flora composition as compared with fecal flora. Conclusions:The distribution of bacterial flora in blood, lung tissue and intestine of sepsis mice with acute lung injury is partially overlapped.

ABSTRACT

Chinese materia medica can inhibit the proliferation, invasion, migration and expression of drug-resistant proteins of lung cancer stem cells (LCSCs), and induce apoptosis and delay self-renewal, as well as exert anti-tumor effects by interfering with their ecological niche, immune microenvironment and aerobic glycolysis, etc. The biomarkers involved mainly include CD133, CD44, ALDH and ABCG2, while the related signaling pathways are Wnt/β-catenin, Hedgehog, and Notch. The research on the intervention of LCSCs by Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is generally few, mostly concentrated in basic research, and the selected experimental indicators have a high repetition rate, involving fewer cell types and signaling pathways; there is a relative lack of clinical trials, which lack an organic connection with basic experiments. In the future, the quality of research is expected to be improved, and in-depth study of TCM with anti-lung cancer stem cell effect should be carried out, with the purpose to promote the precise treatment of lung cancer.

ABSTRACT

Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) is a rare immune-mediated disorder characterized by hyperactivation of antigen-presenting cells and T cells, massive secretion of inflammatory cytokines, and impaired function of natural killer cells and CD8 + T cells.Ruxolitinib is a Januse kinase(JAK)inhibitor that reduces cytokine release and retards the inflammatory response by competitive binding to the JAK catalytic site, to achieve the goal of curing HLH.In recent years, ruxolitinib has been gradually applied in the treatment of HLH, and its effectiveness has also been verified.However, studies have also found that there are efficacy differences in the treatment of HLH caused by different etiologies.This article reviews the mechanism of ruxolitinib in the treatment of HLH and the differences in the efficacy of ruxolitinib in the treatment of HLH of different etiologies.

ABSTRACT

Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis(HLH)is a systemic hyperinflammation syndrome.XIAP deficiency is an innate immunodeficiency disorder, often combined with HLH, with increased susceptibility to EB virus, mostly in childhood.XIAP deficiency leads to innate immune deficiency, increased apoptosis, and excessive activation of NLRP3 inflammasome, which together lead to impaired clearance of pathogens and excessive release of cytokines, resulting in HLH.The course of HLH in patients with XIAP deficiency is generally mild and the mortality rate is low, but it frequently relapses.In addition to HLH, XIAP deficiency can be combined with some auto-inflammatory disease.Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is the only curable method and reduced-intensity conditioning is recommended.Some new targeted therapies, such as IFN-γ monoclonal antibodies, IL-18 and IL-6 antagonists may be effective, but the specific efficacy needs more study.

ABSTRACT

@#This paper summarized professor ZHANG Lei′s experience in treating scleroderma from “extraordinary pathogens entering collaterals”. The basic pathogenesis of scleroderma is “extraordinary pathogens entering the collaterals”, and extraordinary pathogens can be divided into external and internal categories. External extraordinary pathogens are mostly exogenous wind, cold and damp pathogens, and the pathogenesis is wind, cold and damp invading skin stria and retaining collaterals. Most of the endogenous extraordinary pathogens are turbid phlegm and blood stasis, and the pathogenesis is endogenous phlegm and stasis leaving the channels and overflowing the collaterals, and blocking the collaterals. Blocked by extraordinary pathogens for a long time, the long illness will lead to deficiency and develop into a syndrome of collaterals excess and channels deficiency. Therefore, professor ZHANG creats Tengluo Beverage (藤络饮) as the basic formula to unblock collaterals and dispel pathogens, and recommends to add or subtract it according to the different syndrome and pathogenic characteristics of the edema stage, sclerosis stage, and atrophy stage. In the edema stage, it is advised to expel wind, remove dampness and unblock the collaterals, while in the sclerosis stage, the method of dissolving phlegm, expelling stasis and unblocking collaterals should be used; in the atrophic stage, it is suggested to differentiate the deficiency of qi, blood, yin and yang, and eliminate extraordinary pathogens on the basis of reinforcing healthy qi .

ABSTRACT

A 50-year-old man with a 15-year history of elevated blood glucose and an approximately 2-year history of diarrhea was admitted to the Peking Union Medical College Hospital. The initial diagnosis was type 2 diabetes. After repeated pancreatitis and pancreatoduodenectomy, severe pancreatic endocrine and exocrine dysfunction including alternating high and low blood glucose and fat diarrhea occurred. Tests for type 1 diabetes-related antibodies were all negative, C-peptide levels were substantially reduced, fat-soluble vitamin levels were reduced, and there was no obvious insulin resistance. Therefore, a diagnosis of pancreatic diabetes was clear. The patient was given small doses of insulin and supplementary pancreatin and micronutrients. Diarrhea was relieved and blood glucose was controlled. The purpose of this article is to raise clinicians' awareness of the possibility of pancreatic diabetes after pancreatitis or pancreatic surgery.
