ObjectiveTo clearly identify the difference between rescue injuries and agonal injuries and to avoid duplicate identifications and misidentifications. MethodsBased on the forensic pathological data of 5 923 cases of death cause identification from 2013 to 2022 in Sun Yat-sen University Forensic Identification Center and Guangzhou Tianhe District Branch of Guangzhou Public Security Bureau， this study retrospectively studied the characteristics of rescue injuries and agonal injuries seen in cause of death identification and their influence on cause of death identification. ResultsAmong all the 5 923 cases， 640 cases were found to have rescue injuries or agonal injuries， and 624 cases received treatment， of which 609 cases were found to have rescue injuries （97.60%）， 44 cases were found to have agonal injuries， and 13 cases were found to have both types of injuries. Among the 640 cases， 441 were male and 199 were female. The age of death was discontinuously distributed from 0 to 95 years old. The leading cause of death was disease， followed by mechanical injury and asphyxia. The main manifestations of rescue injuries were rib and sternum fractures， soft tissue injuries in the prechest area or face， and pericardial rupture. The most common injuries in agonal stage were falling after unconsciousness， inhalation of foreign body in respiratory tract or multiple violent injuries. Among the 640 cases， 19 cases were repeatedly identified， including 15 cases of rescue injuries， 6 cases of agonal injuries， and 2 cases of both types of injuries. Compared with the cases where neither type of injuries was detected， the repeated identification rate of treatment injuries and agonal injuries was significantly increased （χ²=4.04， P=0.044； χ²=43.49， P<0.001）. Among the 640 cases， 11 cases （1.72%） were misidentified as the initial injuries in the first identification， and 13 cases had combined rescue injuries or agonal injuries that were involved in death. ConclusionsBy elucidating the epidemiological characteristics of the two types of injuries， this study proved that the two types of injuries were associated with higher rates of repeated identification and misidentification， which provided a reference for reducing repeated identification and misidentification and improving the accuracy of cause of death identification.

ObjectiveTo identify the chemical components of Houpo Wenzhongtang in vivo and in vitro and to analyze the pharmacokinetic properties of the index components in rats with deficiency-cold of spleen and stomach. MethodThe chemical components of Houpo Wenzhongtang was analyzed and identified by ultra performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole-time-of-flight tandem mass spectrometry（UPLC-Q-TOF-MS/MS）. Six rats were randomly selected from 18 SD rats as the blank group， and the remaining rats were given lard and cold vinegar for a long time to construct a rat model with deficiency-cold of spleen and stomach. After successful modeling， the rats were randomly divided into the model group and Houpu Wenzhongtang group（13.5 g·kg^-1， calculated as crude drug）. The administration group was given the corresponding dose of Houpu Wenzhongtang by gavage， and the blank group and the model group were given the same amount of distilled water by gavage. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay（ELISA） were used to measure gastrin（GAS） and motilin（MTL） levels in each group. At the same time， plasma samples were collected at different time points after administration， and blood-entry prototype components and metabolites of Houpo Wenzhongtang were analyzed by UPLC-Q-TOF-MS/MS. On this basis， plasma concentrations of magnolol， honokiol， alpinetin and hesperidin in Houpo Wenzhongtang were determined by ultra performance liquid chromatography coupled with triple quadrupole/linear ion trap mass spectrometry（UPLC-QTRAP-MS/MS）， and the pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated using DAS 2.0 software. ResultA total of 79 chemical components， including 44 flavonoids and 11 lignans， were identified in Houpo Wenzhongtang. Meanwhile， 18 blood-entry prototype components and 27 metabolites were identified， the main metabolic pathways of metabolites were glucuronidation， sulfation， oxidation and hydrolysis， and phase Ⅰ and phase Ⅱ were the two primary forms of metabolism. Pharmacokinetic results showed that among the four index components， the time to peak（t_max） values of magnolol and honokiol were consistent and exhibited similar drug metabolism characteristics， the t_max of alpinetin was the shortest， and the absorption rate was the fastest， which had the earliest peak plasma concentration levels， and hesperidin had the shortest mean residence time（MRT_0-t） and the highest metabolic rate in rats. ConclusionThis study clarifies the blood-entry prototype components and their metabolites of Houpo Wenzhongtang in the rat model of deficiency-cold of spleen and stomach， and reveals the pharmacokinetic characteristics of the main active ingredients， which can provide a scientific basis for the study of pharmacodynamic material basis of this formula and its clinical application in treating the syndrome of deficiency-cold of spleen and stomach.

Objective:To analyze the clinical characteristics of children with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) combined with thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA), and clarify the clinical outcomes and related risk factors of pediatric patients through their treatment and follow-up.Methods:This was a single-center retrospective case-control study. Children diagnosed with SLE combined with TMA between January 2017 and January 2023 at Beijing Children′s Hospital, Capital Medical University, were selected as the TMA group, and SLE children without TMA were selected as the control group.According to the prognosis, children in the TMA group were further divided into the good prognosis group and the poor prognosis group.The data of the children were collected, including age, gender, SLE disease activity, clinical presentations at the time of diagnosis and at the time of thrombosis, laboratory examinations, treatment strategies, prognosis, and follow-up results.The chi-square test and Z-test were used for comparison of count data.The t-test was used for comparison of metrological pairing data.The Fisher′s exact test was used to compare the differences between the 2 groups in categorical variables.The univariate Logistic regression was used to analyze the risk factors of poor prognosis. Results:There were 29 cases in the TMA group, and the incidence of TMA accounted for 2.53% of SLE patients; 33 cases were in the control group.The age at diagnosis of TMA was 13 years and 5 months (ranging from 9 years, 1 month and 5 days to 17 years and 4 months).The common clinical manifestations in order of prevalence were renal involvement (28 cases, 96.55%), hematologic involvement (26 cases, 89.66%), serous effusion (17 cases, 58.62%), rash (13 cases, 44.82%), and neurologic involvement (12 cases, 41.38%).Pleurisy or pericarditis, renal involvement and neurological involvement occurred more often in the TMA group than in the control group (17 cases vs.3 cases, 28 cases vs.10 cases, 12 cases vs.3 cases), and the TMA group showed less facial rash and arthritis than the control group (13 cases vs.25 cases, 4 cases vs.17 cases), and the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05).The Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Disease Activity Index score in the TMA group [(24.14±9.42) scores] was significantly higher than that in the control group [(10.18±9.42) scores], and the difference was statistically significant ( t=3.233, P<0.05).The hemoglobin level, platelet count, and complement C3 level of the children in the TMA group were significantly lower than those in the control group, whereas the double stranded DNA antibody, lactate dehydrogenase, D-dimer, urea, creatinine, ferritin level, and urine protein quantitation were significantly higher than those in the control group, and the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05).In the TMA group, 5 cases had decreased ADAMTS13 activity, and 5 cases had significantly increased complement C5b9.A total of 15 cases (51.72%) in the TMA group underwent renal biopsy, and 13 of them had combined renal TMA.In the TMA group, 28 patients (96.6%) received hormone therapy, 17 patients received plasma exchange, and 12 patients were treated with immunosuppressants and biologics; 19 patients (65.5%) improved, and 10 patients (34.5%) gave up the treatment due to deterioration of the disease.The urea level and peripheral blood fragmented erythrocyte rate in the good prognosis group were significantly lower than those in the poor prognosis group [(13.18±4.39) mmol/L vs.(21.16±10.14) mmol/L, t=2.975, P=0.006; 8/17 (47.06%) vs.7/7 (100%), χ2=5.929, P=0.015].The univariate Logistic regression analysis showed that the fragmented erythrocyte, ADAMTS13 activity and urea were the independent risk factors for poor prognosis (all P<0.05). Conclusions:SLE patients with moderate-to-severe disease activity, especially children with hemolytic anemia, thrombocytopenia, and renal dysfunction as prominent manifestations, should be alert to the risk of TMA.Early diagnosis and treatment are crucial.

ObjectiveTo explore the related factors of troublemaking behaviors among patients with mental disorders induced by amphetamine-type stimulants （ATS）， and to provide references for the formulation of relevant intervention measures for ATS-induced mental disorders. MethodsA total of 105 patients who met the diagnostic criteria of International Classification of Diseases， tenth edition （ICD-10） for ATS-induced mental disorders were included， and classified into troublemaking group and non-troublemaking group. The general demographic data and clinical data of the selected individuals were collected， and all patients were assessed using Social Support Rating Scale （SSRS）. Then univariate analysis and multivariate Logistic regression model were used to screen the related factors of troublemaking behaviors. ResultsThe scores of SSRS， objective support dimension and social support utilization dimension were significantly lower in troublemaking group than those in non-troublemaking group， with statistical differences ［（24.10±6.59） vs. （28.94±5.59）， t=3.364， P=0.001； （5.50±1.96） vs. （8.20±2.13）， t=5.183， P<0.01； （4.60±2.26） vs. （6.28±1.90）， t=3.435， P=0.001］. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that male （OR=6.061， P=0.014） was a risk factor， while high social support level （OR=0.873， P=0.018） was the protective factor for troublemaking behaviors among patients with ATS-induced mental disorders. ConclusionPatients with ATS-induced mental disorders of the males and with low social support level are at high risk of troublemaking behaviors.

Objective:To examine the clinical application effects of two-complex and one-plane technique for the renal artery dissected location in transperitoneal laparoscopic radical nephrectomy(LRN).Methods:Clinical data of patients diagnosed as renal tumor between January 2016 and December 2019 that treated with transperitoneal LRN and the two-complex and one-plane technique was performed to locate and dissect the renal arteries were analyzed retrospectively. A total of 206 qualified patients were enrolled, included 71 cases from Kaifeng Central Hospital and 135 cases from the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University. There were 126 males and 80 females with median age of 54 years (range: 35 to 82 years). Renal tumor lived at left kidney in 102 cases and at the right in 104 cases, with a maximum tumor diameter of (6.8±2.5)cm (range: 3.0 to 12.7 cm). During the procession of transperitoneal LRN, The genital veins was followed to locate renal veins, soon the renal vein complex and renal lower pole complex and psoas major muscle plane that named as “two-complex and one-plane”anatomical markers were applied to the dissected location of renal arteries. The established application of two-complex and one-plane technique for renal artery location, and the anatomical features along with its locational time of renal artery, as well as vascular-related complications were recorded and analysed. The χ 2 test or t test was used to compare the results of different lateral operations. Results:The surgical procedures were successful in all 206 patients. The operation time was (54.4±13.6) minutes (range:22 to 116 minutes), no injury to liver, spleen or intestine. Two-complex and one-plane technique was used to complete renal arteries location of 206 patients that accompanied with one or more arterial branch in the procession of transperitoneal LRN. Single renal artery branch was found in 163 cases, two or more renal artery branches were found in 43 cases, and 60 branches of accessory renal artery that in addition to the main trunks were detected in 14 cases (13.7%, 14/102) on left-side and 29 cases (27.9%, 29/104) on the right(χ2=6.251, P=0.012).The main branch of renal artery that directly been located inferior or posterior to renal vein in 165 cases, and the other 41 cases that born with higher-position of main branch been located through an upper“window-opening”of renal veins complex. Of the 60 accessory renal artery, 46 branch (76.6%, 46/60) been located inferior or posterior to renal veins, and the other 14 branch with higher-position (23.3%, 14/60) been located by a"window-opening"technique. The renal artery dissected location time was (21.2±9.4) minutes (range:11 to 43 minutes) in left-side and (17.5±9.3) minutes (range:9 to 32 minutes) in the right ( t=2.840, P=0.005).The intraoprative bleeding was (51.8±25.2) ml (range:20 to 400 ml). There were 4 cases of vascular injury occured and treated with laporoscopy, only one need blood transfusion.
