Objective To investigate the distribution of serum specific IgG antibodies against food in children with autism spectrum disorders(ASD),and provide experimental evidence for improving gastrointestinal symptoms of ASD children.Methods A retrospec-tive study was conducted on 411 children with ASD visited the Department of Psychology and Behavior of Hebei Children's Hospital from January 2021 to December 2022.Additionally,631 healthy children who underwent physical examination during the same period were collected as the healthy control group.Their venous blood samples were collected,and ELISA was used to detect the levels of 14 kinds of serum specific IgG antibodies against food.The distribution characteristics of food intolerance in children with different genders and ages were investigated.Results The total positive rate of specific IgG antibodies against food in children with ASD reached 91.84%(405/441).The top 3 positive rates of specific IgG antibodies were against egg(71.89%),milk(56.70%),and wheat(56.02%),respectively,which were significantly higher than those in the healthy control group(χ2=42.81,27.48,and 26.88,re-spectively,P＜0.05).The comparative results of gender composition showed that the positive rate of specific IgG antibody against rice in female ASD children(15.96%)was significantly higher than that in male ASD children(4.90%,χ2=11.84,P＜0.05).The posi-tive rates of specific IgG antibodies against egg and wheat in male and female ASD children were significantly higher than those in the healthy control group(χ2=19.44 and 4.42 for males,χ2=4.66 and 10.93 for females,P＜0.05).The positive rate of specific IgG anti-body against milk in male ASD children was significantly higher than that in the healthy control group(χ2=12.62,P＜0.05),while those against soybean and rice in female ASD children were also significantly higher than that in the healthy control group(χ2=7.00 and 5.42,P＜0.05).There were significant differences in the positive rates of food intolerance to milk and soybean in ASD children with different ages(χ2=13.74 and 9.70,P＜0.05)and they decreased with age.The positive rates of specific IgG antibody against wheat in ASD children aged 2-3 and 4-6 years were significantly higher than those in the healthy control group(χ2=5.78 and 4.55,P＜0.05).The positive rate of specific IgG antibody against milk in ASD children aged 4-6 years was significantly higher than that in the healthy control group(χ2=7.57,P＜0.05).Conclusion The highest positive rate of specific IgG antibodies against food in ASD chil-dren is against egg,which is not related to the patient's gender.Next are milk and wheat.The gastrointestinal issues and related food intolerance should be taken into account in the management of patients with ASD.

Objective:To integrate the symptom management experiences of patients with acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF), so as to provide a basis for developing symptom management measures.Methods:Qualitative or mixed studies on the symptom management experience of ADHF patients included from establishment of the database to September 2024, were electronically retrieved in PubMed, CINAHL, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, Embase, EBSCO, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, WanFang Data, VIP, China Biomedical Database and other Chinese and English databases and gray literature databases. The quality of the literature was evaluated using the Critical Appraisal Skills Programme developed by the Center for Evidence-Based Medicine at the University of Oxford. The results were synthesized through the aggregative integration method.Results:A total of 14 papers were included. Thirty-four findings were distilled into eight categories and three integrative findings, namely, the multiple challenges posed by symptoms (complex and multiple symptomatic somatic experiences, symptom-induced mood changes, and reduced family and social engagement), the unmet needs of patients (insufficient healthcare resources, insufficient supply of discharge services provided by healthcare organizations, and lack of knowledge), and the co-existence of positive and negative coping styles (negative coping styles in symptomatic distress, positive debugging and diversified coping in symptomatic distress) .Conclusions:ADHF symptoms severely affect patients' physical, psychological, and social function. Healthcare professionals should focus on the unmet needs of patients with ADHF and explore patient-engaged models of active symptom management.

Objective:To investigate the application value of optimized mesenteric defect closure technique in laparoscopic-assisted right hemicolectomy.Methods:The retrospective and descriptive study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 26 patients who underwent laparo-scopic-assisted right hemicolectomy at Changzhi People′s Hospital Affiliated to Changzhi Medical College from May 2023 to June 2024 were collected. There were 11 males and 15 females, aged (65.7±1.8)years. All patients received optimized mesenteric defect closure using a combined extra-corporeal-laparoscopic suturing technique. Observation indicators: (1) surgical and intraoperative conditions; (2) postoperative conditions; (3) follow-up. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, and measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M( Q1, Q3) or M(range). Count data were described as absolute numbers. Results:(1) Surgical and intraoperative conditions. All 26 patients underwent laparoscopic-assisted right hemicolectomy with optimized mesenteric defect closure. The time of optimized mesenteric defect closure was 9.8(8.8,12.8)minutes, time of digestive tract reconstruction was 10.0(8.7,13.0)minutes, operation time was (164±4)minutes, volume of intraoperative blood loss was 50(50,100)mL. One of the 26 patients had intraoperative mesenteric hematoma, which required no specific intervention. The patient recovered uneventfully and was discharged from hospital. (2) Postoperative conditions. The visual analog scale pain score of 26 patients on postoperative day 1 and day 3 were 5(4,5) and 3(2,3), respectively. Time to postoperative first anal flatus and bowel movement were both 3(3, 4)days. Time to postoperative first intake of liquid diet was 2(2,3)days, duration of postoperative abdominal drainage was 4(3,5)days, and duration of postoperative hospital stay was 9(8,12)days. The number of lymph node dissected in 26 patients was 25(18,27) and the number of positive lymph node was 1(0,2). Cases in stage Ⅰ, stage Ⅱ and stage Ⅲ of tumor TNM staging were 5, 6, 15. (3) Follow-up. All 26 patients were followed up for 15(range, 6?20)months. Of the 26 patients, one case had incom-plete intestinal obstruction on postoperative day 25, which was diagnosed as adhesive intestinal obstruction based on imaging examination and classified as Clavien-Dindo grade Ⅱ. The patient recovered and was discharged after conservative treatment. None of the 26 patients had bleeding, infection of incision, anastomotic leakage, internal hernia, or delayed gastric emptying. There was no tumor recurrence, metastasis or death.Conclusion:The optimized mesenteric defect closure tech-nique in combined extracorporeal-laparoscopic suturing procedure can be used in laparoscopic-assisted right hemicolectomy.

BACKGROUND: Double-stranded RNA-specific adenosine deaminase 1 (ADAR1) binds to double-stranded RNA and catalyzes the deamination of adenosine (A) to inosine (I). The functional mechanism of ADAR1 in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) remains incompletely understood. This study aimed to investigate the prognostic significance of ADAR1 in NSCLC and to elucidate its potential role in regulating tumor cell proliferation and migration. METHODS: Data from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and cBioPortal were analyzed to assess the correlation between high ADAR1 expression and clinicopathological features as well as prognosis in lung cancer. We performed Western blot (WB), cell proliferation assays, Transwell invasion/migration assays, and nude mouse xenograft modeling to examine the phenotypic changes and molecular mechanisms induced by ADAR1 knockdown. Furthermore, the ADAR1 p150 overexpression model was utilized to validate the proposed mechanism. RESULTS: ADAR1 expression was significantly elevated in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) and lung squamous cell carcinoma (LUSC) tissues compared with adjacent non-tumor tissues (LUAD: P=3.70×10-15, LUSC: P=0.016). High ADAR1 expression was associated with poor prognosis (LUAD: P=2.03×10-2, LUSC: P=2.81×10-2) and distant metastasis (P=0.003). Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA) indicated that elevated ADAR1 was associated with mitogen-activated protein kinase/extracellular signal-regulated kinase (MAPK/ERK) pathway activation, matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) expression, and cell adhesion. ADAR1 and MMP-9 levels showed a strongly positive correlation (P=6.45×10-34) in 10 lung cancer cell lines, highest in H1581. Knockdown of ADAR1 in H1581 cells induced a rounded cellular morphology with reduced pseudopodia. Concomitantly, it suppressed cell proliferation, invasion, migration, and in vivo tumorigenesis. It also suppressed ERK phosphorylation and downregulated cellular Finkel-Biskis-Jinkins murine osteosarcoma viral oncogene homolog (c-FOS), MMP-9, N-cadherin, and Vimentin. Conversely, ADAR1 p150 overexpression in PC9 cells enhanced ERK phosphorylation and increased c-FOS and MMP-9 expression. CONCLUSIONS High ADAR1 expression is closely associated with poor prognosis and distant metastasis in NSCLC patients. Mechanistically, ADAR1 may promote proliferation, invasion, migration, and tumorigenesis in lung cancer cells via the ERK/c-FOS/MMP-9 axis.

Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP1) is a multifunctional protein involved in diverse cellular functions, notably DNA damage repair. Pharmacological inhibition of PARP1 has therapeutic benefits for various pathologies. Despite the increased use of PARP inhibitors, challenges persist in achieving PARP1 selectivity and effective blood-brain barrier (BBB) penetration. The development of a PARP1-specific positron emission tomography (PET) radioligand is crucial for understanding disease biology and performing target occupancy studies, which may aid in the development of PARP1-specific inhibitors. In this study, we leverage the recently identified PARP1 inhibitor, AZD9574, to introduce the design and development of its ¹⁸F-isotopologue ([¹⁸F]AZD9574). Our comprehensive approach, encompassing pharmacological, cellular, autoradiographic, and in vivo PET imaging evaluations in non-human primates, demonstrates the capacity of [¹⁸F]AZD9574 to specifically bind to PARP1 and to successfully penetrate the BBB. These findings position [¹⁸F]AZD9574 as a viable molecular imaging tool, poised to facilitate the exploration of pathophysiological changes in PARP1 tissue abundance across various diseases.

POEMS syndrome is a rare condition associated with plasma cell disorders， and it often involves multiple systems and has diverse clinical manifestations. This article reports two cases of POEMS syndrome with hepatosplenomegaly as the initial manifestation. During the course of the disease， the patients presented with lower limb weakness， hepatosplenomegaly， lymph node enlargement， ascites， hypothyroidism， positive M protein， and skin hyperpigmentation， and ¹⁸F-FDG PET-CT imaging revealed bone lesions mainly characterized by osteolytic changes and plasma cell tumors. There was an increase in the serum level of vascular endothelial growth factor. The patients were finally diagnosed with POEMS syndrome， and the symptoms were relieved after immunomodulatory treatment.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the application value of narrow-band CE-Chirp ASSR(NB CE-Chirp ASSR)and modulated acoustic ASSR in the assessment of hearing threshold in children with hearing impairment.METHODS Forty-eight children with sensorineural hearing loss were tested by pure tone audiometry(PTA),NB CE-Chirp ASSR and modulated acoustic ASSR.According to the results of pure tone audiometry,they were divided into mild to moderate group(48 ears)and severe to profound group(48 ears).The difference and correlation between pure tone hearing threshold and ASSR response threshold of different stimuli were compared between 500-4 000 Hz.RESULTS The absolute differences between the NB CE-Chirp ASSR response threshold and the PTA threshold in 48 children were all smaller than the differences between the modulated acoustic ASSR response threshold and the PTA threshold,and the differences were statistically significant(P<0.001).Under the same stimulus sound,the absolute difference between ASSR response threshold and pure tone hearing threshold in the mild to moderate group was higher than that in the severe to very severe group.The correlation coefficients between NB CE-Chirp ASSR threshold and pure tone hearing threshold are higher than those between modulated sound ASSR threshold and pure tone hearing threshold at 500-4 000 Hz.The test time of NB CE-Chirp ASSR[(20.92±9.33)min]was significantly shorter than that of modulated acoustic ASSR[(33.68±10.97)min](P=0.004).CONCLUSION NB CE-Chirp ASSR can more accurately assess the hearing threshold of children with different degrees of hearing loss than modulated acoustic ASSR.

Objective:To explore the effects and safety of Qigong Pills in IVF-ET outcome of PCOS infertility patients with phlegm-dampness type.Methods:A randomized controlled trial study was carried out. In the Reproductive and Genetic Medicine Center of Dalian Women and Children Medical Center (Group) from January 2021 to December 2023, 60 patients with sputum and damp-induced PCOS infertility assisted by in-vitro fertilization and embryo transfer (IVF-ET) were enrolled and randomly divided into 2 groups by block randomization method, with 30 cases in each group. Patients in both groups took ethinylestradiol cyproterone tablets orally on the 2nd to 5th day of the 1st menstrual cycle before IVF-ET cycle, and received down-regulation treatment on the 18th to 20th day of menstruation. After confirming that the down-regulation standard was reached, Qigong Pills was added to the treatment group, and placebo was taken orally until the trigger day. Two groups of patients underwent transvaginal ultrasound-guided ovarian aspiration after injection of chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) for 24-36 h. The total amount of Gn, the days of Gn, the endometrial thickness of HCG, the number of eggs obtained, the rate of diprokaryotic (2PN) fertilization, the number of transferable embryos, the number of high-quality embryos, the rate of high-quality embryos, the incidence of OHSS and the clinical pregnancy rate were compared between the two groups.Results:Among the 60 patients, 28 cases in the final treatment group and 27 cases in the control group were included in the outcome index evaluation. During controlled hyperstimulation (COH), the total Gn [2 025 (1 575, 2 325) U vs. 2 700 (2 025, 3 150) U, Z=-3.67] and the number of Gn days of the treatment group [10 (8,11) d vs. 11 (9,13) d, Z=-2.31] were lower than those in control group ( P<0.001 or P<0.05). There was no statistical significance in endometrial thickness between 2 groups on HCG day ( P>0.05); the number of high-quality embryos [3 (3, 4) vs. 2 (2, 3), Z=0.11] and the rate of high-quality embryos [46.28% (87/188) vs. 35.19% (57/162), Z=4.42] in the treatment group were higher than those in the control group ( P<0.05). There was no statistical significance in the number of eggs obtained, the fertilization rate of 2PN and the number of transferable embryos between the two groups ( P>0.05). The incidence of OHSS was 3.6% (1/28) in the treatment group and 11.1% (3/27) in the control group, without statistical significance ( P=0.352). The clinical pregnancy rate was 53.6% (15/28) in the treatment group and 37.0% (10/27) in the control group, without statistical significance ( P=0.218). There was no significant difference in the safety indexes of liver and kidney function between 2 groups ( P>0.05). Conclusion:Qigong Pills combined with IVF-ET can effectively reduce the total amount of Gn and the number of days of treatment in PCOS infertility patients with phlegm-dampness type, increase the number and rate of high-quality embryos, and improve the outcome of IVF-ET, and it is safe and effective.
