Larotaxel, a new taxane compound prepared by partial synthesis from 10-deacetyl baccatin Ⅲ, is active against tumors. In this research, a selective LC–MS method was developed and validated for the study of degradation kinetics of larotaxel, which was carried out in aqueous solutions with different pH (1.5, 3.0, 5.0, 6.5, 7.4, 9.0, 10 and 11.0) and temperature (0, 25, 37 and 45 °C). The linear range was 0.5–25μg/mL, the intra-and inter-day precisions were less than 7.0%, and accuracy ranged from 97.4–104.5% for each analyte. The observed rate obtained by measuring the remaining intact larotaxel was shown to follow first-order kinetics. The activation energies for degradation were 126.7 and 87.01 kJ/mol at pH 1.5 and 11, respectively. Although larotaxel was stable in pH 5, 6.5 and 7.4 buffers at 37 °C for 24 h during our study, increasing or decreasing the pH of the solutions would decrease its stabilities. Moreover, three main degradation products in alkaline condition were separated by HPLC and identified by Q–TOF–MS. The three degradation products were confirmed as 10-deacetyl larotaxel, 7, 8-cyclopropyl baccatin Ⅲ and 10-deacetyl-7, 8-cyclopropyl baccatin Ⅲ.

A simple, rapid and sensitive method based on an ultra-performance liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry(UPLC–MS/MS)has been developed and validated for the determination of pimavanserin in rat plasma.The analyte was extracted by protein precipitation with methanol and separated on an ACQUITY BEH C18column(100 mm×2.1 mm,1.7μm;Waters,USA),with an isocratic elution of acetonitrile-water containing 10 mM ammonium acetate (70:30, v/v), at a flow rate of 0.2 mL/min for 2.5 min. The analyte and clarithromycin (the internal standard) were detected and quantified in positive ion mode using multiple reaction monitoring transitions at m/z 428.2 → 223.0 for pimavanserin and m/z 748.5 → 589.5 for clarithromycin. Relative coefficient (r) for the calibration curve was more than 0.9980. The intra-day and inter-day precisions(relative standard deviation,RSD%)were less than 13.3% and 10.5%,respectively,and the accuracy(relative error,RE%)was within ± 11.5%.The analytical method was successfully applied to a routine pharmacokinetic study of pimavanserin in rats after oral administration at the dose of 10 mg/kg.

Owing to the advancement of high-throughput microbial 16S ribosomal RNA (16S rRNA) gene sequencing, respiratory and intestinal flora has become a research hotspot in China and abroad in recent years. At the moment, it has been verified that intestinal flora is closely related to various respiratory diseases such as cystic fibrosis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), asthma, and lung infection. The causal relationship between COPD and intestinal flora is still unclear. In clinical settings, COPD is characterized by gastrointestinal disorders such as anorexia, abdominal distension, and constipation, and malnutrition, which are closely related to the imbalance of intestinal flora. According to modern medicine, intestinal microbiota participates in the metabolism of energy and nutrients and immune defense in the host through the common mucosal immune system, thereby involving the progression of diseases. In addition, metabolites of intestinal flora mediate lung immune dysfunction through the immunoregulation of remote organs, causing pulmonary and intestinal microdysbiosis and affecting the occurrence and development of COPD. COPD belongs to the category of "lung distension" in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). The pathogenesis of microdysbiosis in COPD is closely related to the lung, spleen, and intestine. Particularly the transportation and transformation of water and grains and the defense against external pathogens in TCM are consistent with the mechanisms of intestinal flora disturbance in COPD in modern medicine. The interior-exterior relationship between lung and large intestine, linkage between spleen and small intestine, and lung and spleen in the meridian of taiyin in TCM can well explain the microdysbiosis in COPD. Based on available research outcomes in modern medicine, this paper discusses the relationship between the flora in lung and intestine and microdysbiosis in COPD in TCM. The author believes that the "lung-spleen-intestine" mode in TCM is a new perspective for the research on microdysbiosis in COPD, which is conducive to the prevention and treatment of COPD.

Virtual reality (VR) is a technology that interacts computer-generated three-dimensional scenes with the user′s senses and has been gradually applied in the real medical field. Since the first time of successful attempt in 3D laparoscopic gastrointestinal surgery VR living video broadcast in 2016, the authors have experienced the exploration of the application of this technology (2016-2017) as well as the in-depth research phase (2018-2019). Nowadays, the VR application in our center has entered into the application practice phase (2020 to present). With the technology iteration and more and more application experience acquisition, our current VR application mainly focuses on two practice settings, including the clinical teaching scenarios for early exposure to acute appendicitis for medical undergraduate students and the preoperative communication to give pati-ents an early sense of the process in the operating theatre, and has achieved good application results. With continuous breakthroughs and innovations in software and hardware, we believe that more clinical VR scenarios and the course audience will be expanded to a wider group. The integration of some new hotspots such as Meta-Universe and ChatGPT will make up for the shortcomings in VR content scenarios and interactivity, and its application prospects are infinite.

Objective:To analyze the diagnosis and treatment of neonatal neuroblastoma (NB) by summarizing its clinical characteristics.Methods:This study retrospectively recruited 14 neonates with NB in Beijing Children's Hospital (National Center for Children's Health) from February 1, 2015, to February 1, 2020. Medical records and follow-up data as of February 29, 2020, were collected, and clinical staging based on International Neuroblastoma Staging System, risk grouping based on American Childhood Oncology Group risk grouping system, diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis were analyzed. According to whether surgical treatment was performed in the neonatal period or not, these subjects were divided into surgical and non-surgical groups. A descriptive statistical analysis was used for data analysis.Results:(1) Neonates with NB accounted for 0.063% (14/22 006) of the total number of newborns admitted to the hospital during the same period. The 14 cases were all full-term aged 15 d (8 h-23 d) at admission. Tumors were found in seven cases in prenatal examinations, while others presented with shortness of breath (three cases), abdominal distension (two cases), fever (one case), and dysuria and difficult defecation after birth (one case). (2) The primary tumor sites included the adrenal gland (eight cases), posterior mediastinum (three cases), retroperitoneum (two cases), and sacrococcygeal (one case). Three cases had extensive diffuse liver metastasis at admission. (3) Except for two cases who refused to examine, the serum neuron-specific enolase of 12 cases was 57.2 ng/ml (35.9-158.3 ng/ml) during hospitalization, and the urine vanillyl-mandelic acid creatinine of four cases was 2 304.940 (685.748-9 595.314). (4) Primary tumor sites were found in 14 cases by imaging examination. Bone scanning was performed in three cases, including one with a concentrated shadow of the right sacroiliac joint and two with no abnormalities. Ten cases underwent bone marrow aspiration and all with normal results. (5) Of the ten neonates received surgery (the surgical group), nine had the primary tumor wholly removed, without chemotherapy after the operation, and the tumor-free survival period was 19 months (1-45 months). One case (case 5) had a substantial primary tumor that could not be completely resected. The patient underwent a second surgery five months after the first operation due to disease progression and received postoperative chemotherapy. The child had stopped chemotherapy for 24 months and survived without a tumor. (6) In the non-surgical group (cases 11 to 14), the tumor in case 11 who refused chemotherapy shrank spontaneously after discharge, and the patient survived for 20 months with the tumor. The parents of the case 12 withdrew treatment during hospitalization, while the primary tumor and metastases disappeared after discharge, and the specific tumor markers gradually decreased to normal levels. The patient has been tumor-free survived for 25 months. Case 13 received mediastinal tumor resection and chemotherapy during infancy. At the end of the follow-up, chemotherapy had been stopped for 12 months, and the patient survived without a tumor. Case 14 withdrew treatment and died. (7) Among the ten cases in the surgical group, one patient's pathological result indicated a composite tumor, while the others were low differentiated neuroblastoma. There was no MYCN gene amplification, 1p36 deletion, or 11q23 deletion in the ten cases. (8) Among the ten children in the surgical group, nine were in stage 1, and one was in stage 4S (case 5). Nine cases were classified into extremely low-risk groups, while the other was in the low-risk group. The four cases in the non-surgical group could not be grouped by risk. Conclusions:Clinical manifestations of neonatal NB are often atypical. NB in stage 4S might resolve spontaneously, and expectant observation may be considered. The overall prognosis of neonatal NB is generally good, but further researches are needed.
