Objective To establish the methods for neonatal screening of glucose 6 phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency. Methods G6PD activity was measured by using fluorescence spot test (FST) with the dry blood sample on the filter paper for neonatal screening. G6PD/6PGD rate test of venous blood samples was further performed for confirmation. Results The positive G6PD deficiency rate was 4.2% and its detection rate was 3.7% in FST for neonatal screening. The conformation rate of FST with G6PD/6PGD rate test for G6PD deficiency was 86.8% and 100% particularly in severe deficiency groups. Both sensitivity and specificity were very high in severe deficiency groups. Conclusions FST is used in neonatal screening of G6PD deficiency because of its high accuracy, applicability, and simplicity Morover, it can test lots of dry blood samples on the filter paper. It is very favorable to diagnose and treat G6PD deficiency early in high incidence districts.

Objective: To observe the clinical efficacy of pediatric Tuina (Chinese therapeutic massage) plus oral administration of Chinese medication for pediatric anorexia due to spleen failing in transportation. Methods: A total of 94 children with anorexia due to spleen failing in transportation were randomized into an observation group and a control group by the random number table method at a ratio of 1:1, with 47 cases in each group. The control group was treated with modified Bu Huan Jin Zheng Qi San, and the observation group was treated with additional Tuina manipulation of Yun Shui Ru Tu based on the treatment in the control group. After 4 weeks of treatment, the clinical efficacy of the two groups was observed, and the traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) symptom score, serum leptin, neuropeptide Y, and serum zinc and calcium levels were compared. Results: After 4 weeks of treatment, the total effective rate of the observation group was 87.2％, and that of the control group was 74.5％. The difference between the two groups was statistically significant (P<0.05). After treatment, the TCM symptom scores in both groups decreased significantly (P<0.05), and the scores in the observation group were lower than those in the control group (P<0.05). After treatment, the serum leptin level in both groups decreased, and the level in the observation group was lower than that in the control group (P<0.05). The serum neuropeptide Y, zinc, and calcium levels in both groups increased after treatment, and the levels in the observation group were higher than those in the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion: Tuina manipulation of Yun Shui Ru Tu plus oral administration of Chinese medication is significantly effective in treating pediatric anorexia due to spleen failing in transportation, which can improve the appetite of children and improve the symptoms of anorexia, and the curative effect is better than that of oral administration of Chinese medication alone.

OBJECTIVETo assess the DNA damage of copper 8-quinolinolate (CuQ) and to elucidate the plausible mechanisms.METHODSHepG2 cells were treated with CuQ0-4 μmol·L-1 for different time,DNA damage was measured by Comet assay.Catalase (CAT) activity,glutathione(GSH) level and thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) were measured.NF-κB was examined using Western blotting.8-Hydroxydeoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) was measured by immunoperoxidase staining analysis.RESULTSCuQ 0.5 -4 μmol·L-1 caused significant increase of DNA migration in HepG2 cells.CuQ significantly decreased levels of GSH and activity of CAT in HepG2 cells (P ＜0.05).Moreover,CuQ significantly increased accumulation of the p65 subunit of NF-κB into nucleus,levels of lipid peroxidation product TBARS and the formation of 8-OHdG (P ＜0.05).The intracellular GSH level was modulated by pre-treatment with buthionine-(S,R)-sulfoximine (BSO),depletion of GSH in HepG2 cells pre-treated with BSO dramatically increased susceptibility of HepG2 cells to CuQ-induced DNA damage.CONCLUSIONCuQ exerts DNA damage by oxidative stress and increases accumulation of p65 subunit of NF-κB into nucleus in HepG2 cells.

Objective To explore influences of improved intramuscular injection on quality of benzathine benzylpenicillin medication.Methods The cluster random sampling was adopted to select 178 patients who needed injection of 240U benzathine benzylpenicillin.A self-control study design was used,and benzathine benzylpenicillin was injected in both sides with each of 1 200 000 units.The left side was injected via routine method,while the right side was injected by an improved intramuscular injection.One-time success rate,degree and duration of pain during and after injection were recorded.Results The differences of one-time success rate,pain during injection,pain after injection,duration of pain after injection and incidence of induration after injection between two groups were statistically significant(P＜0.01).Conclusion The improved intramuscular injection can improve one-time success rate of benzathine benzylpenicillin,reduce pain during injection and local pain after injection,shorten duration of pain and decrease incidence of induration after injection.

Chronic refractory wound (CRW) is one of the most challengeable issues in clinic due to complex pathogenesis, long course of disease and poor prognosis. Experts need to conduct systematic summary for the diagnosis and treatment of CRW due to complex pathogenesis and poor prognosis, and standard guidelines for the diagnosis and treatment of CRW should be created. The Guideline forthe diagnosis and treatment of chronic refractory wounds in orthopedic trauma patients ( version 2023) was created by the expert group organized by the Chinese Association of Orthopedic Surgeons, Chinese Orthopedic Association, Chinese Society of Traumatology, and Trauma Orthopedics and Multiple Traumatology Group of Emergency Resuscitation Committee of Chinese Medical Doctor Association after the clinical problems were chosen based on demand-driven principles and principles of evidence-based medicine. The guideline systematically elaborated CRW from aspects of the epidemiology, diagnosis, treatment, postoperative management, complication prevention and comorbidity management, and rehabilitation and health education, and 9 recommendations were finally proposed to provide a reliable clinical reference for the diagnosis and treatment of CRW.
