Objective To summarize the aortographic features of child patients with Kawasaki disease(KD)complicated by coronary artery lesion(CAL)who were treated at the Wuhan Children's Hospital of China.Methods The clinical data of 30 child patients with early recovery stage KD complicated by CAL,who received aortic angiography examination at Wuhan Children's Hospital of China between June 2016 and June 2023,were retrospectively analyzed.Preoperative echocardiography was adopted to evaluate the severity of CAL,and aortic angiography under laryngeal mask general anesthesia was performed.Results Successful aortic angiography examination was accomplished in all the 30 child patients with KD complicated by CAL.After angiography,the CAL risk classification results showed that grade I was seen in 5,grade Ⅱ in 7,grade Ⅲ in 12,grade Ⅲ in 4,and grade V in 2 child patients.Of all child patients,old coronary thrombosis was found in one(grade Ⅲb),and coronary artery stenosis with collateral circulation formation in one(grade Ⅴ).The CAL was located at the proximal segment(n=15),middle segment(n=3)and distal segment(n=2)of the right coronary artery,at the left main coronary artery(n=12),and at the proximal segment of left coronary artery anterior descending branch(n=9).Electrocardiography showed sinus rhythm(n=17),sinus arrhythmia(n=4),right bundle branch block(n=4),atrial premature beat(n=1),ventricular premature beat(n=2),T-wave change(n=1),and Q-wave change(n=1,coronary lesion grade V,echocardiography suggested left heart enlargement).No cardiac enlargement,cardiac functional insufficiency,or valvular regurgitation signs were observed in the remaining child patients.Conclusion It is clinically safe and feasible to perform aortic angiography examination in child patients with early recovery stage KD complicated by CAL.In this series of child patients with KD,CAL mainly occurs at the proximal segment of coronary artery,especially at the proximal segment of right coronary artery as well as at the left main artery and left anterior descending branch.

Differential effects of hypoxia and oxidative stress on paracrine of mesenchymal stem cells from different sources / 中国组织工程研究

BACKGROUND:The biological behavior of mesenchymal stem cells is influenced by the survival microenvironment.Pre-treatment of the microenvironment is an important means of regulating the function of mesenchymal stem cells. OBJECTIVE:To compare the differences in paracrine function of umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells and adipose mesenchymal stem cells under oxidative stress and hypoxia,and to provide a theoretical basis for selecting appropriate pretreatment of mesenchymal stem cells to treat different diseases. METHODS:Umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells and adipose mesenchymal stem cells were cultured by H2O2 or O2 oxygen,respectively,and cell morphology,proliferation,viability and paracrine factor expression were examined. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)The expression levels of brain-derived neurotrophic factor and transforming growth factor-β were higher in umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells than in adipose mesenchymal stem cells under a normal culture environment,while the expressions of stromal cell-derived factor-1α and tumor necrosis factor stimulating factor-6 in the adipose mesenchymal stem cells were significantly higher than those in the umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells.(2)There was no significant difference in the effect of low and moderate levels(≤100 μmol/L)of H2O2 on the viability of the two mesenchymal stem cells.However,increasing the H2O2 concentration from 50 μmol/L to 100 μmol/L resulted in a distinct increase in vascular endothelial growth factor expression in umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells.The expression of basic fibroblast growth factor,vascular endothelial growth factor,stromal cell-derived factor-1α and interleukin-10 in adipose mesenchymal stem cells was greatly increased by increasing H2O2 concentration in this range.(3)1%O2 hypoxia promoted mesenchymal stem cell proliferation.After 24 hours of culture in 1%O2,gene expression levels were elevated in both mesenchymal stem cells,but the expression levels of vascular endothelial growth factor,interleukin-10 and tumor necrosis factor stimulating factor-6 were significantly higher in adipose mesenchymal stem cells than in umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells.(4)It is concluded that hypoxia and oxidative stress preconditioning enhances the paracrine function of mesenchymal stem cells.However,mesenchymal stem cells respond differently to hypoxia and oxidative stress.Treating diseases can choose suitable mesenchymal stem cells for appropriate pretreatment to further enhance their therapeutic potential.

Its diagnosis and treatment require a large number of aids and clinical experience. For multiple clinical aspects of epilepsy, such as seizure prediction, drug therapy prognosis, and surgical treatment evaluation, machine learning can incorporate multiple clinical and imaging factors through deep mining of data, establish corresponding learning models, improve the efficiency and accuracy of epilepsy diagnosis, realize individualized application of antiepileptic drugs, and improve the preoperative evaluation and prognosis of epilepsy patients.

Differentiation and Treatment of Malignant Tumors based on the Theory of Ministerial Fire / 中医杂志

The occurrence of malignant tumors is closely related to the ministerial fire. The variant ministerial fire is the fundamental factor of the formation of cancer toxin， and ministerial fire dislocation and hyperactivity are the basis for the generation of variant ministerial fire. When the ministerial fire cannot keep its position or moves without restraint， burning and exuberant， the variant ministerial fire comes out. Under the guidance of the theory of ministerial fire， the basic treatment methods to differentiate and treat malignant tumors are the direct repulsion of variant ministerial fire， and the regulation of dislocated and hyperactive ministerial fire. The method of clearing heat and resolving toxins is often used， taking a large amounts of bitter and cold herbs to reduce variant ministerial fire. For ministerial fire dislocation， ministerial fire depletion， true yang insufficiency， and the ministerial fire failing to rely on， it is common to have symptoms of upper heat and lower cold， for which the treatment method is to benefit the source of the fire， and Modified Yinhuo Decoction （引火汤加减） is commonly used. For insufficient true yin and lack of support for ministerial fire， it is suggested to nourish kidney essence， and the medicinals of enriching yin and boosting kidney are commonly used. In terms of ministerial fire hyperactivity， the treatment method should be nourishing the heart and calming the mind， and Jiaotai Pills （交泰丸） is often used to clear heart and clam the mind， and return fire to its origin. At the same time， methods such as regulating qi， resolving phlegm， clearing fire， and dispelling stasis are used to clear away tangible pathogens， so that the ministerial fire acts in a controlled manner and keeps its position and destiny.

Mechanism and treatment of mucous hypersecretion in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease / 中国临床药理学与治疗学

Airway mucus hypersecretion is one of the important pathophysiological and clinical manifestations of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. It has been reported in the literature that COPD patients with chronic airway mucus hypersecretion have more frequent acute exacerbations, more severe lung function decline, and higher hospitalizations and mortality. Therefore, it is particularly critical to understand the pathogenesis of hypersecretion of mucus in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and find out effective treatment. This article focuses on the structure, significance of airway mucus and the mechanism of hypersecretion of mucus in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). In addition, we also summarized drug and non-drug therapy for chronic airway mucus hypersecretion in this article. Drug therapy includes traditional drug therapy, some new targeted drug therapy for pathogenesis and traditional Chinese medicine therapy, and non-drug therapy includes smoking cessation, physical therapy and bronchos-copy therapy. We hope that it will provide new ideas and directions for the treatment of mucus hypersecretion in COPD patients.

Treatment of Diabetic Rats Mellitus-induced Erectile Dysfunction by Xiaoyaosan Based on Experiments / 中国实验方剂学杂志

ObjectiveTo investigate the mechanism of action and main active components of Xiaoyaosan in the treatment of diabetic mellitus-induced erectile dysfunction （DMED）. MethodStreptozotocin （STZ） was used to induce a diabetic rat model. The therapeutic efficacy of Xiaoyaosan was evaluated by measuring intracavernous pressure/mean arterial pressure （ICP/MAP） and using Masson's trichrome staining. The main active components， key targets， and potential signaling pathways of Xiaoyaosan for the treatment of DMED were predicted by network pharmacology and molecular docking. The predicted results were then validated by in vitro and in vivo experiments. ResultThe ICP/MAP measurements and Masson's staining results showed that compared with the results in the control group， the erectile function of rats in the model group was significantly reduced （P<0.01）， and the ratio of smooth muscle/collagen fibers was significantly reduced （P<0.01）. After treatment with Xiaoyaosan， compared with the results in the model group， the ICP/MAP value of the diabetic rats was significantly elevated （P<0.01）， and the ratio of smooth muscle/collagen fibers was significantly higher （P<0.01）. The results of network pharmacology showed that Xiaoyaosan acted on key targets such as albumin （ALB）， protein kinase B1 （Akt1）， interleukin-6 （IL-6）， and tumor necrosis factor （TNF） through its main active components， including quercetin， kaempferol， β-sitosterol， and stigmasterol. These components were involved in the regulation of the advanced glycation end-products/receptor for advanced glycation end-products （AGE/RAGE） signaling pathway and the phosphoinositide 3-kinases（PI3K）/Akt signaling pathway in diabetic complications. The results of molecular docking showed that the key components of Xiaoyaosan had good binding capabilities with core targets， with β-sitosterol showing the strongest binding affinity with ALB. In vivo experiments demonstrated that Xiaoyaosan could significantly increase the protein and mRNA expression of ALB and Akt1 in serum， and inhibit the expression of IL-6 and TNF-α. It also significantly upregulated the expression of protein and mRNA of phosphorylation（p）-PI3K and p-Akt， and inhibited the RAGE expression. The results of cellular thermal shift assay （CETSA） showed that β-sitosterol could significantly inhibit the degradation of ALB protein. ConclusionXiaoyaosan may restore erectile function in diabetic rats by modulating targets such as ALB， Akt1， IL-6， and TNF， and through the RAGE/PI3K/Akt signaling pathway， and its main active component is likely β-sitosterol.

Research advances in liver cancer organoids / 临床肝胆病杂志

Organoids are a novel disease model that is self-assembled from stem cells or malignant tumors and is used in clinical research. They are similar to tissues and organs in the body and have partially functional 3D cell structures. There are two types of traditional models for liver cancer research， i.e.， in vivo models （animal models of liver cancer established by induction） and in vitro cell experiments using corresponding cell lines. Organoids have the advantages of the two types of traditional models and show unique advantages in tumor research. Traditional models cannot fully reflect the microenvironment of cells， which often leads to the inconsistency with clinical research findings， and the emergence of new research models provides a new direction for the research on liver cancer. This article reviews the research advances in liver cancer organoids， in order to provide a new perspective for future research on liver cancer.

OBJECTIVE To study the toxic mechanism of Mahuang xixin fuzi decoction （MXF） on normal mice. METHODS Totally 48 SPF grade BABL/C mice were randomly divided into blank group， MXF low-dose， medium-dose and high-dose groups， with 12 mice in each group. MXF low-dose， medium-dose and high-dose groups were given drug intragastrically at the dose of 11.262， 33.786， 45.050 g/kg， respectively. Blank group was administered with equal volume of normal saline， once a day， for consecutive 7 d. The body weight， anal temperature and survival rate were recorded， organ index and serum biochemical factors were detected. After the last administration， fecal samples of mice were collected and detected by UHPLC-QE/MS. RESULTS Compared with blank group， the body weight was decreased significantly from the 3rd to the 5th day after administration in MXF medium-dose group， and from the 2nd to the 7th day after administration in MXF high-dose group significantly （P＜0.05）. There was no significant difference in anal temperature among the treatment groups； the average survival rates of MXF medium-dose and high-dose groups were 58.33% and 50.00%， respectively. Compared with blank group， there were significant difference in the indexes of spleen， lung， thymus， adrenal gland and creatine kinase in MXF low-dose， medium-dose and high-dose groups， the testis index in MXF low-dose and high-dose groups， the creatine kinase isoenzyme/creatine kinase ratio in MXF low-dose group， the α-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase， lactate dehydrogenase and alkaline phosphatase in MXF medium-dose group， the urine and cystatin C in MXF medium-dose and high-dose groups （P＜0.05）. The fecal metabonomic analysis showed that 19 biomarkers such as phenylpyruvate， L-tyrosine， phosphatidylcholine， glycerol 3-phosphate in MXF low-dose， medium-dose and high-dose groups were significantly different from those in the blank group. CONCLUSIONS When MXF reaches a certain dose， it will have adverse effects on the body weight， multiple organs and serum biochemical indicators of mice， thus showing a certain toxic effect. Its mechanism may be related to disrupting the intestinal flora metabolism， causing inflammatory reaction and immune disorders.

Chinese consensus guidelines for therapeutic drug monitoring of polymyxin B, endorsed by the Infection and Chemotherapy Committee of the Shanghai Medical Association and the Therapeutic Drug Monitoring Committee of the Chinese Pharmacological Society / 浙江大学学报（英文版）（B辑：生物医学和生物技术）

Polymyxin B, which is a last-line antibiotic for extensively drug-resistant Gram-negative bacterial infections, became available in China in Dec. 2017. As dose adjustments are based solely on clinical experience of risk toxicity, treatment failure, and emergence of resistance, there is an urgent clinical need to perform therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) to optimize the use of polymyxin B. It is thus necessary to standardize operating procedures to ensure the accuracy of TDM and provide evidence for their rational use. We report a consensus on TDM guidelines for polymyxin B, as endorsed by the Infection and Chemotherapy Committee of the Shanghai Medical Association and the Therapeutic Drug Monitoring Committee of the Chinese Pharmacological Society. The consensus panel was composed of clinicians, pharmacists, and microbiologists from different provinces in China and Australia who made recommendations regarding target concentrations, sample collection, reporting, and explanation of TDM results. The guidelines provide the first-ever consensus on conducting TDM of polymyxin B, and are intended to guide optimal clinical use.

Mutations in CERS3 Gene Underlies a Case of Autosomal Recessive Congenital Ichthyosis / 罕见病研究

Autosomal recessive congenital ichthyosis caused by CERS3 mutations is extremely rare in clinical practice. We recently identified a family of autosomal recessive congenital ichthyosis and performed multigene exome sequencing for hereditary skin diseases to identify causative genes. Mutation analysis revealed compound heterozygous mutations of c.746A>G(from the mother) and exon12 deletion(from the father)in CERS3 were detected in the proband, which were verified by Sanger sequencing and co-segregated with the ichthyosis phenotype in the proband and her parents. These mutations were both reported for the first time. For the treatment, the proband received an oral acitretin capsules of 20 mg once daily. After 3-month follow up, the patient's lesion improved significantly.

A decision tree model to predict successful endovascular recanalization of non-acute internal carotid artery occlusion / 国际脑血管病杂志

Objective:To investigate predictive factors for successful endovascular recanalization in patients with non-acute symptomatic internal carotid artery occlusion (SICAO), to develop a decision tree model using the Classification and Regression Tree (CART) algorithm, and to evaluate the predictive performance of the model.Methods:Patients with non-acute SICAO received endovascular therapy at 8 comprehensive stroke centers in China were included retrospectively. They were randomly assigned to a training set and a validation set. In the training set, the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) algorithm was used to screen important variables, and a decision tree prediction model was constructed based on CART algorithm. The model was evaluated using the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness-of-fit test and confusion matrix in the validation set.Results:A total of 511 patients with non-acute SICAO were included. They were randomly divided into a training set ( n=357) and a validation set ( n=154) in a 7:3 ratio. The successful recanalization rates after endovascular therapy were 58.8% and 58.4%, respectively. There was no statistically significant difference ( χ2=0.007, P=0.936). A CART decision tree model consisting of 5 variables, 5 layers and 9 classification rules was constructed using the six non-zero-coefficient variables selected by LASSO regression. The predictive factors for successful recanalization included fewer occluded segments, proximal tapered stump, ASITN/SIR collateral grading of 1-2, ischemic stroke, and a recent event to endovascular therapy time of 1-30 d. ROC analysis showed that the area under curve of the decision tree model in the training set was 0.810 (95% confidence interval 0.764-0.857), and the optimal cut-off value for predicting successful recanalization was 0.71. The area under curve in the validation set was 0.763 (95% confidence interval 0.687-0.839). The accuracy was 70.1%, precision was 81.4%, sensitivity was 63.3%, and specificity was 79.7%. The Hosmer-Lemeshow test in both groups showed P>0.05. Conclusion:Based on the type of ischemic event, the time from the latest event to endovascular therapy, proximal stump morphology, the number of occluded segments, and the ASITN/SIR collateral grading constructed the decision tree model can effectively predict successful recanalization after non-acute SICAO endovascular therapy.

First hepatectomy beyond the Milan criteria affects the prognosis of salvage liver transplantation / 中华肝胆外科杂志

Objective:To analyze the prognostic factors affecting salvage liver transplantation (SLT).Methods:The clinical data of 97 patients undergoing liver transplantation in the Ningbo Medical Centre Lihuili Hospital from January 2012 to May 2022 were retrospectively analyzed, including 84 males and 13 females, aged (53.6±7.4) years. Among them, 33 patients underwent primary liver transplantation (PLT) and 64 underwent SLT. SLT patients were subdivided into the groups within the Milan criteria (SLT-A, n=35) and beyond the Milan criteria (SLT-B, n=29), according to whether the Milan criteria were met at first hepatectomy. Clinicopathological and prognostic data were subsequently analyzed. Results:The tumor number ( χ2=16.03, P<0.001), microvascular invasion (MVI) ( χ2=10.97, P=0.004), recurrence rate ( χ2=9.31, P=0.010), recurrence-free survival (RFS, F=14.05, P=0.001) and overall survival (OS, F=17.27, P<0.001) were significantly different among the three groups. RFS ( P=0.047) and OS ( P=0.012) in PLT group were better than those in SLT-B group. RFS ( P=0.007) and OS ( P=0.024) in SLT-A group were also better than those in SLT-B group. The multivariate analysis indicated that beyond the Milan criteria at first hepatectomy was an independent risk factor for RFS ( HR=4.378, 95% CI: 1.393-13.756, P=0.011) and OS ( HR=5.391, 95% CI: 1.428-20.352, P=0.013) in patients undergoing SLT, and MVI positive ( HR=4.042, 95% CI: 1.137-14.368, P=0.031) was an independent risk factor for RFS in patients undergoing SLT. Conclusion:Patients beyond the Milan criteria at first hepatectomy and MVI positive showed a poorer prognosis after SLT. Whether the Milan criteria should be the gold standard for SLT as well as for PLT needs further study.
