Objective To investigate the clinical characteristics of diabetic retinopathy(DR)and diabetic nephropathy(DN)and their correlation. Methods All of 9237 hospitalized type 2 diabetes patients from January 2004 to June 2009 were collected. The prevalence and clinical of characteristics of DR and DN as well as their relationship were analyzed. Results The total prevalence of DR was 33.0%(3045/9237),and the prevalence of DR in the microalbuminuria, macroproteinuria and macroalbuminuria combined with renal dysfunction patients were 36.3%(588/1618),53.7%(1113/2074)and 70.7%(1206/1706)respectively.The prevalence of DN was 58.4%(5398/9237). Compared with that in the diabetes patients without DR, the levels of microalbumin and total protein in the urine were higher in the patients with moderate non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy(NPDR), serious NPDR and proliferative diabetic retinopathy(PDR), but the endogenous creatinine clearance rate was lower(P< 0.05). According to the non-conditional Logistic regression model,the risk factors of DR included diabetes duration,urinary protein,fibrinogen, C-reactive protein and peripheral neuropathy, and the risk factors of DN included diabetes duration, HbA1c, systolic blood pressure,urinary protein,low density lipoprotein and DR. Conclusions DR and DN are the chronic microvascular complications in the type 2 diabetes and have higher prevalence. There are good correlations between DR and DN.

Objective:To summarize the clinical characteristics, causes of misdiagnosis and preventive measures of infectious mononucleosis (IM) in children, and to improve the ability of clinicians in early diagnosis of IM in children.Methods:The clinical data of 468 children with IM in Xi′an Children′s Hospital from January 2018 to December 2021 were retrospectively analyzed, including general situation, disease onset, diagnosis and misdiagnosis.Results:Among the 468 children, 33 cases were clinically diagnosed and 435 cases were a definitely diagnosed; 281 males (60.04%) and 187 females (39.96%); the incidence rate was highest in preschool children (43.80%, 205/468) and in autumn (33.12%, 155/468). The first symptoms were fever (52.99%, 248/468), eyelid edema (15.38%,72/468) and neck mass (14.96%, 70/468). The fever rate was 90.38% (423/468), and the median time of first fever appearance was on the first (first, second) day of disease course, and the median duration of fever was 6 (4, 8) d. The median time of first visit was on the third (first, fifth) day of disease course, and the time of diagnosis was on the seventh (fifth, ninth) day of disease course. Blood routine examination showed that the proportion of white blood cell count increased was 51.92% (243/468), the proportion of lymphocytes increased was 61.75% (289/468), and the proportion of abnormal lymphocytes increased (≥10%) in peripheral blood was 58.97% (276/468). The lymphocyte subsets of 364 children were detected, the rate of helper T lymphocytes (Th cells) decreased was 80.22% (292/364), the rate of suppressor T lymphocytes (Ts cells) increased was 99.45% (362/364), the value and decreased rate of Th cells/Ts cells were 0.24 (0.16, 0.40) and 100.00% (364/364), rate of B lymphocytes decreased was 93.96% (342/364), rates of natural killer cells decreased and increased were 35.16% (128/364) and 0.55% (2/364). The misdiagnosis rate was 55.13% (258/468), and the misdiagnosis time was on the fifth (fourth, seventh) day of disease course. Among the 258 misdiagnosed children, 105 cases (40.70%) were misdiagnosed as upper respiratory tract infection, 65 cases (25.19%) as acute suppurative tonsillitis, 27 cases (10.47%) as acute cervical lymphadenitis or neck mass.Conclusions:Due to the complex and diverse clinical manifestations of IM in children, it is easy to be misdiagnosed in the early stage of the disease. So, it is necessary for clinicians to master the clinical characteristics of IM in children, constantly improve the level of diagnosis and treatment, and reduce the misdiagnosis rate.

Immunoscenescence plays a key role in the initiation and development of tumors. Furthermore, immunoscenescence also impacts drug delivery and cancer therapeutic efficacy. To reduce the impact of immunosenescence on anti-tumor therapy, this experimental plan aimed to use neutrophils with tumor tropism properties to deliver sialic acid (SA)-modified liposomes into the tumor, kill tumor cells via SA-mediated photochemotherapy, enhance infiltration of neutrophils into the tumor, induce immunogenic death of tumor cells with chemotherapy, enhance infiltration of CD8+ T cells into the tumor-draining lymph nodes and tumors of immunosenescent mice, and achieve SA-mediated photochemotherapy. We found that CD8+ T cell and neutrophil levels in 16-month-old mice were significantly lower than those in 2- and 8-month-old mice; 16-month-old mice exhibited immunosenescence. The anti-tumor efficacy of SA-mediated non-photochemotherapy declined in 16-month-old mice, and tumors recurred after scabbing. SA-mediated photochemotherapy enhanced tumor infiltration by CD8+ T cells and neutrophils, induced crusting and regression of tumors in 8-month-old mice, inhibited metastasis and recurrence of tumors and eliminated the immunosenescence-induced decline in antitumor therapeutic efficacy in 16-month-old mice via the light-heat-chemical-immunity conversion.
