Chloride channel CLC-5 is a voltage-dependent gated channel.The voltage-gated characteristic of CLC-5 is not only regulated by glutamate E211 and E268,but also by lysine K210.In proximal renal tubule,CLC-5 can interact with megalin protein,and adjust the reabsorption of albumin together.CLC-5 can also affect the activities of the sodium hydrogen exchanger isoform 3 in proximal renal tubule.CLCN5 gene mutations can lead to Dent disease,and recent studies have found some new pathogenic mutants of CLC-5,VS05G,L266V and G446A,and so on.CLCN5 can also mutate together with ORCL1,and then result in Dent disease.However,the regulatory mechanism of the voltage-gated channel,physiological functions and molecular mechanism,and Dent disease are still not entirely clear.In this paper,we will review these problems of CLC-5.

Objective To compare various CT signs of pancreatic carcinoma (PC) and inflammatory pancreatic mass (IPM), and to study the diagnostic value of these signs for distinguishing two diseases. Methods Eigty-five patients with PC and IPM were proved by surgery, fine needle aspiration or other comprehensive methods. These patients underwent non-enhanced and enhanced CT scans. CT findings were analyzed retrospectively. The occurrance rates of various CT signs in these two diseases were analyzed with Fisher test and were compared with the corresponding clinical and operational results as welL Results Among the 85 patients, 66 patients were proved to have PC, and 19 were proved to have IPM. In PC group,58 were corerectly diagnosed with CT, 3 (4. 5% ) were misdiagnosed, and 5 (7.6%) were omitted. In IPM group, 9 were correctly diagnosed with CT and 10 (52. 6% ) were misdiagnosed. The CT findings were as follows: (1) Pancreatic mass with liver metastases, lymph node metastases, encased celiac arteries, and cancer emboli in portal veins just occurred in PC group. (2) The occurrence rates of mass over 3 cm in diameter, clear boundary, low-density area within the mass, pseudocysts, peripancreatie infiltration, ascites, and slight and moderate pancreatic-bile duct dilation in PC group were 90. 91% (60/66), 15.15% ( 10/66), 54. 55% ( 36/66 ), 10. 61% ( 7/66 ), 4. 55% ( 3/66 ), 22. 73% ( 15/66 ), 24. 24% ( 16/66 ), 45.45% (30/66), and 27. 27% (18/66) respectively, the occurrence rates in IPM group were 94. 74% ( 18/19), 15.79% ( 3/19 ), 52. 63% ( 10/19 ), 15.79% ( 3/19 ), 15. 79% ( 3/19 ), 21.05% (4/19), 31.58% (6/19) ,21.05% (4/19), and 5.26% (1/19) respectively. There was no statistical difference for these CT findings between two groups(P >0. 05). (3) Pancreatic head mass with atrophy of pancreatic body and tail, mass calcification, pancreatic duct-penetrating sign, pancreatic head mass with hypertrophy of pancreatic body and tail, biliary stones with inflammation , and thickening of pre-kidney fascia in PC group were 48.48% ( 32/66 ), 3.03% ( 2/66 ), 1.52% ( 1/66 ), 10. 61% ( 7/66 ), 6. 06% ( 4/66 ) and 3.03% (2/66) respectively, the occurrence rates of those in IPM group were 5. 26% (1/19),47.37% (9/19), 15.79% ( 3/19 ), 84. 21% ( 16/19 ), 36. 84% ( 7/19 ) and 21.05% ( 4/19 ) respectively. There was statistical difference for these CT findings between two groups ( P < 0. 05 ) . Conclusion Accurate evaluation of various CT signs in PC and IPM is of great importance in the diagnosis of the two diseases.

Objective: To explore the impact of CT image reconstruction methods on the performance of pulmonary nodule detection algorithm based on deep learning (DL). Methods: Lung CT images of 298 cases were labeled by 2 attending doctors, and the inconsistent results between them were checked by a senior doctor. The final labels were regarded as the gold standards of this experiment. Pulmonary nodule detection algorithm was constructed based on a deep neural network and tested on these 298 cases. Comparing the output of the detection algorithm with the doctor's labeling, the sensitivity, accuracy and F1-score of the algorithm were calculated, especially those under different CT image reconstruction methods. Afterwards, the false-positive detections of the algorithm were checked, and the detailed distribution of these false positives was presented. Diagnostic effects of the model were analyzed among different CT image reconstruction algorithms. Results: The sensitivity of pulmonary nodule detection algorithm under mediastinum, lung, and bone CT reconstruction methods was 92.33% (313/339), 86.97% (287/330) and 92.73% (319/344), while the precision was 23.55% (313/1 329), 37.91% (287/757) and 27.84% (319/1 146), respectively. Taken sensitivity and precision into account, F1-socre of these 3 reconstruction methods was 0.38, 0.53 and 0.43, respectively (all P>0.05). Conclusion: Pulmonary nodule detection algorithm based on DL achieves excellent performance under pulmonary window reconstruction, mediastinum window reconstruction and bone window reconstruction, which can help doctors to improve work efficiency and diagnose quality.

Objective To study the dynamic changes of blood carnitine and acylcarnitine levels in preterm infants during parenteral and enteral nutritional support,and the relationship between carnitine status and nutritional patterns,gestational age (GA) and weight gain.Method From January 2017 to December 2017,preterm infants admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) within 24 hours after birth and received parenteral nutrition support were enrolled.They were assigned into 4 groups according to their GA:ultra-premature infants (＜ 28 weeks),very premature infants (28 ～ 31 weeks),mid premature infants (32 ～ 33 weeks) and late premature infants (34 ～ 36 weeks).They were assigned into 2 groups according to their average daily weight gain:＜ 15 g/(kg · d) group and ≥15 g/(kg · d) group.Blood samples were collected and examined as dried-blood spot specimens on filter paper for four times:after born,given total parenteral nutrition,given enteral combined parenteral nutrition,and given total parenteral nutrition.The concentrations of free carnitine and acylcarnitine were detected using liquid chromatographytandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS).SPSS 21.0 statistical software was used for statistical analysis.Result A total of 124 preterm infants and 410 samples were collected.As the infants experienced gradual transition from parenteral nutrition to enteral nutrition,the free carnitine and most acylcarnitines levels were decreasing (C3,C4,C10DC,C12,C12∶1,C12DC,C14,C16,C16∶ 1,C16-OH and C18,P＜0.05).Preterm infants with small GA showed higher levels of C4-OH (P =0.001) and C5 (P =0.001).Preterm infants with lower velocity of weight gain showed lower concentration of C5-OH (P =0.006) in the early postnatal period.Conclusion Free carnitine and acylcarnitine in preterm infants during the early postnatal period are decreasing with the transition from parenteral nutrition to enteral nutrition,indicating that the exogenous nutrition is relatively insufficient.C4-OH and C5 levels are negatively correlated with GA.In addition,lower level of C5-OH may indicate slow weight gain during the early postnatal period.

ObjectiveTo systematically evaluate the efficacy and safety of Tianmeng Oral Liquid in the treatment of hyperprolactinemia caused by antipsychotics in female patients with schizophrenia， and to provide references for intervention of antipsychotic-induced hyperprolactinemia patients. MethodsEnglish databases （PubMed， Cochrane Library， PsycINFO and Embase） and Chinese databases （CNKI and Wanfang） were systematically searched， with a search time frame of the period from database creation to September 16， 2022. Randomized controlled studies （RCTs） on adjunctive Tianmeng Oral Liquid in the treatment of hyperprolactinemia caused by antipsychotics in female patients with schizophrenia were included. Three investigators independently screened the literatures and extracted data according to PICOS principles and evaluated the quality of including literatures， and the Meta-analysis was performed by using RevMan 5.3. ResultsA total of 3 articles including 256 female schizophrenic patients with hyperprolactinemia were included. Meta-analysis results showed that at the treatment endpoint， the improvement of hyperprolactinemia symptoms reported a significant superiority of the intervention group than the control group （RR=1.73， 95% CI： 1.07~2.79， P˂0.05）. Similarly， the significant superiority of the intervention group than the control group were also found in reducing serum prolactin levels （WMD=-55.17， 95% CI： -68.16~-42.18， P<0.01） and Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale （PANSS） total scores were lower in the intervention group than in the control group （WMD=-7.36， 95% CI： -8.94~-5.77， P<0.01）. ConclusionTianmeng Oral Liquid may help improve clinical efficacy and reduce serum prolactin levels in female schizophrenia patients with hyperprolactinemia. It may improve psychiatric symptoms in female patients with schizophrenia.
