Objective:To explore the clinical features of acute pancreatitis (AP) complicated with portal vein system thrombosis (PVST) and the clinical prediction of symptomatic PVST.Methods:From January 2014 to December 2019, at First Affiliated Hospital and Second Affiliated Hospital of Kunming Medical University, 152 hospitalized patients who met the diagnostic criteria of AP complicated with PVST and had complete clinical data were retrospectively analyzed, and the clinical characteristics of them were analyzed. According to whether there were clinical manifestations caused by PVST (esophago-gastric variceal bleeding, persistent ascites, intestinal ischemia), AP patients complicated with PVST were divided into symptomatic group ( n=48) and asymptomatic group ( n=104). The differences in general information, laboratory test indicators, acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ (APACHE Ⅱ), Balthazar computed tomography (CT) score, local and systemic complications were compared between symptomatic group and asymptomatic group. Two independent sample t test, two sample rank sum test, and chi-square test were used for statistical analysis. The binary logistic regression was used for multivariate analysis. Results:The severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) complicated with PVST was common, accounted for 73.0% (111/152), and the hospital mortality rate was 14.5% (22/152). The splenic vein (46.1%, 70/152) was the most common single vessel involved. The hospital stay of the symptomatic group was longer than that of the asymptomatic group, the hospitalization costs and hospital mortality of the symptomatic group were both higher than those of the asymptomatic group ((26.31±19.38) d vs. (15.11±9.31) d, (103 463.68±15 312.74) yuan vs. (37 199.38±4 647.17) yuan, 25.0%, 12/48 vs. 9.6%, 10/104, respectively), and the differences were statistically significant ( t=-3.809 and -4.141, χ2=6.280; all P<0.05). The lactic acid dehydrogenase, C-reactive protein, and prothrombin time of the symptomatic group were all higher than those of the asymptomatic group (4.78 μmol·s -1·L -1, 2.96 μmol·s -1·L -1 to 7.82 μmol·s -1·L -1 vs. 4.42 μmol·s -1·L -1, 3.29 μmol·s -1·L -1 to 9.30 μmol·s -1·L -1; 69.53 mg/L, 29.49 mg/L to 147.14 mg/L vs. 40.90 mg/L, 8.88 mg/L to 104.89 mg/L; (16.88±8.23) s vs. (14.12±1.59) s), however the hematocrit and blood calcium in the symptomatic group were both lower than those of the asymptomatic group ((34.97±8.96)% vs. (39.18±7.17)%, (2.01±0.32) mmol/L vs. (2.17±0.19) mmol/L), and the differences were all statistically significant ( Z=-2.067 and -1.977, t=-2.281, 3.072 and 3.083; all P<0.05). The scores of APACHE Ⅱand Balthazar CT, the rate of local complications of pancreatic necrosis, and systemic complications including abdominal hemorrhage, septic shock, acute respiratory distress syndrome, lung infection and pleural effusion of the symptomatic group were higher than those of the asymptomatic group (7.21±3.84 vs. 5.27±2.31, 7.10±1.57 vs. 4.83±1.87, 87.5%, 42/48 vs. 28.8%, 30/104; 10.4%, 5/48 vs. 1.9%, 2/104; 18.8%, 9/48 vs. 1.9%, 2/104; 25.0%, 12/48 vs. 3.8%, 4/104; 91.7%, 44/48 vs. 60.6%, 63/104; 85.4%, 41/48 vs. 49.0%, 51/104; respectively), and the differences were statistically significant ( t=-3.241 and -7.331, χ2=45.320, 5.393, 13.852, 15.604, 15.323 and 18.191; all P<0.05). The results of binary logistic regression showed that Balthazar CT score was an independent risk factor for symptomatic PVST ( P<0.01), and odds ratio (95% confidence interval) was 1.79 (1.41 to 2.29). Conclusions:Balthazar CT score is an influencing factor of symptomatic PVST in AP patients, and patients with high scores should be treated early to improve the prognosis.

Severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) is a disease with dangerous course and poor prognosis, and although medical technology keeps improving over the years, the mortality rate of SAP remains high. As the latest achievement in the field of blood purification over the past 30 years, continuous blood purification has made great achievements in the treatment of SAP; however, there are still many controversies, and further studies are needed to explore therapeutic effect and mechanism. This article reviews the studies on continuous blood purification in the treatment of SAP in recent years and elaborates on its therapeutic mechanism, treatment mode, and treatment effect.

Although great achievements have been made in the diagnosis and treatment of pancreatic cancer in the past several decades, the 5-year survival rate of this disease is still below 10% due to high degree of malignancy, rapid progression, and strong invasion and metastasis. Exosomes are a class of nanoscale membranous vesicles that can be secreted by a variety of cells, and they carry various substances including proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids and participate in various physiological and pathological processes, such as intercellular material transport, information transmission, and development, progression, and metastasis of tumor. Studies have shown that exosomes play an important role in the metastasis of pancreatic cancer and can regulate the metastasis of pancreatic cancer by promoting epithelial-mesenchymal transition and angiogenesis to act on tumor microenvironment, affecting the formation of premetastatic microenvironment, and participating in the formation of immunosuppression microenvironment. This article reviews the research advances in exosomes in the metastasis of pancreatic cancer.

Objective:To explore the diagnostic value of ultrasound shear wave elastography and portal vein hemodynamic parameters for chronic hepatitis and liver fibrosis.Methods:The clinical data of 48 hospitalized patients with chronic hepatitis diagnosed in Fuyang Second People's Hospital from May 2019 to July 2020 were collected and analyzed retrospectively. The patients voluntarily received portal vein hemodynamics and ultrasonic shear wave elastography. According to Scheuer's method, 48 patients were classified into 5 stages of liver fibrosis, including 10 patients in S0 stage, 13 patients in S1 stage, 10 patients in S2 stage, 10 patients in S3 stage and 5 patients in S4 stage. The average velocity of portal vein, peak portal vein velocity (PVVmax), portal vein diameter (PVD), liver stiffness measurement (LSM) and Young's modulus of liver were compared. Pathological and liver biopsy was the gold standard to analyze the sensitivity and specificity of various detection methods. The normally distributed measurement data were expressed as xˉ± s, the comparison between multiple groups was performed by one-way ANOVA, and the pairwise comparison was performed by LSD-t test. Spearman method was used to analyze the correlation between liver function classification and various parameters. ROC curve was used to analyze the diagnostic value of ultrasonic shear wave elastography, portal vein hemodynamics and combined detection in predicting liver fibrosis in chronic hepatitis. Results:In the staging of liver fibrosis, the LSM of the patients in the S0 stage was (5.29±0.19) kPa, and the Young's modulus of the liver was (21.65±2.35) kPa; the LSM of the patients in the S1 stage was (6.38±1.25) kPa, and the Young's modulus of the liver ( 22.89±3.19) kPa, LSM (9.76±1.33) kPa and hepatic Young's modulus (23.77±3.52) kPa in S2 group, LSM (15.44±2.44) kPa, hepatic Young's modulus (25.14±2.29) in S3 group, LSM (18.08±1.22) kPa and hepatic Young's modulus (27.94±2.58) kPa in patients with S4 stage, the differences between groups were statistically significant (F values ??were 115.47, 4.84, P values?were <0.001, 0.003), and the difference was statistically significant (all P<0.05). The average flow velocity of patients in S0 stage was (20.56±4.21) cm/s, PVVmax (22.19±4.33) cm/s, the average flow velocity of S1 stage was (18.39±3.79) cm/s, PVVmax (20.69±3.12) cm/s, and the average of S2 stage Flow velocity (13.46±2.21) cm/s, PVVmax (16.65±2.54) cm/s, average flow velocity in S3 stage (10.56±2.85) cm/s, PVVmax (13.42±2.46) cm/s, average flow velocity in S4 stage (8.15±1.65) cm/s, PVVmax (11.89±2.89) cm/s, the difference between the groups was statistically significant (F values were 21.35, 16.96, all P<0.001), and the difference between the two groups was statistically significant (all P<0.05). Correlation analysis by Spearman method showed that liver function grades were negatively correlated with average flow velocity and PVVmax (r values ?were -0.75 and -0.88, respectively; all P<0.001), and were positively correlated with liver Young's modulus and LSM. (r values ??were 0.54 and 0.86, respectively; all P<0.001). According to the ROC curve analysis, the AUC predicted by ultrasonic shear wave elastography was 0.75, AUC predicted by portal vein hemodynamics predicts was 0.68, and AUC predicted by combined detection predicts was 0.94. Conclusion:The combination of portal vein hemodynamics and ultrasonic shear wave elastography has a certain diagnostic power for the assessment of chronic hepatitis and liver fibrosis, with high specificity and sensitivity.

OBJECTIVE: To detect chromosomal aberrations by using cytoplasmic light chain immunofluorescence with fluorescence in situ hybridization (cIg-FISH), and to explore the correlation of del(17p13) with clinical characteristics, drug response and prognosis among patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (NDMM). METHODS: Clinical data of 198 cases of NDMM was collected. cIg-FISH and a specific probe (TP53) were used to detect karyotypic abnormalities in bone marrow samples derived from the patients. Correlation between karyotypic abnormalities and clinical data was analyzed. RESULTS: Nineteen of the 198 patients (9.6%) were found to have a karyotype involving del(17p13). The overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) for patients with or without del(17p13) was significantly different (P<0.01). No significant difference was found in OS and PFS between patients carrying a del(17p13) on bortezomib and non-bortezomib regimen (OS: P = 0.873; PFS: P = 0.610). CONCLUSION cIg-FISH is a simple and convenient method for the detection of karyotypic anomalies in multiple myeloma. Del(17p13) is an indicator for poor prognosis for multiple myeloma patients. Bortezomib cannot improve the survival disadvantage of del(17p13).

Objective:To analyze the sensitivity of cytoplasmic light-chain immunofluorescence with fluorescence in situ hybridization in bone marrow smears (new FISH) for detecting cytogenetic abnormalities in multiple myeloma (MM) .Methods:42 MM patients admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from April 2022 to October 2023 were enrolled. The patients with MM were detected by new FISH and CD138 immunomagnetic bead sorting technology combined with FISH (MACS-FISH) or cytoplasmic immunoglobulin FISH (cIg-FISH) to analyze cytogenetic detection results using combination probes which included 1q21/1p32, p53, IgH, IgH/FGFR3 [t (4;14) ], and IgH/MAF [t (14;16) ].Results:In 23 patients with MM, the abnormality detection rates of cIg-FISH and new FISH were 95.7% and 100.0%, respectively ( P>0.05). The detection rates of 1q21+, 1p32-, p53 deletion, and IgH abnormalities by cIg-FISH and new FISH were consistent, which were 52.2%, 8.7%, 17.4%, and 65.2%, respectively. The results of the two methods further performed with t (4;14) and t (14;16) in patients with IgH abnormalities were identical. The positive rate of t (4;14) was 26.7%, whereas t (14;16) was not detected. In 19 patients with MM, the abnormality detection rates of MACS-FISH and new FISH were 73.7% and 63.2%, respectively ( P>0.05). The positivity rate of 1q21+, 1p32- and IgH abnormalities detected by MACS-FISH were slightly higher than those detected by new FISH; however, the differences were not statistically significant (all P values >0.05) . Conclusion:The new FISH method has a higher detection rate of cytogenetic abnormalities in patients with MM and has good consistency with MACS-FISH and cIg-FISH.

Objective: To understand the nutritional literacy level and associated factors of primary and secondary school students in Beijing, so as to provide a scientific basis for improving student nutrition. Methods: From October 2022 to May 2023, a multi stage cluster random sampling method was employed to select a total of 14 568 primary, junior and senior high school students from 16 districts (ecluding the Economic Technological Development area) in Beijing. Through a survey questionnaire on nutritional literacy and dietary hehavior of school age children, basic information as well as data on nutritional literacy levels across four dimensions:nutrition related knowledge concepts, food selection, food preparation, and food intake dimensions were obtained. The Wilcoxon rank sum test, Kruskal-Wallis test, Spearman correlation analysis, Chi square test and binary Logistic regression were used for the analysis. Results: The median total score of nutritional literacy among primary and secondary school students in Beijing was 68.8. Approximately 26.0% of primary and secondary school students achieved nutritional literacy standards. The median scores and rates of meeting the standards for nutrition related knowledge concepts, food selection, food preparation and food intake dimensions were 23.0, 42.1%; 17.0, 27.4%; 6.5, 33.5%; 23.0, 33.3%, respectively. There were positive correlations between all pairs of the four dimensions ( r=0.33-0.49, P <0.05). The results of multiple Logistic regression analysis showed that primary school students, junior high school students, female students, suburban students, caregivers with a college education level and a bachelor s degree or above were the positive arrelation factors that promoted the achievement of nutritional literacy standards ( OR =2.21, 1.39, 1.18, 1.27, 1.42, 1.66, P <0.05). Conclusion The literacy level of primary and secondary school students in Beijing needs to be significantly improved. School stage, gender, region and caregiver s education level are associated factors.
