OBJECTIVE:To investigate blood concentration monitoring data,therapeutic efficacy,toxic reaction and combi-nation of tacrolimus in patients with Allo-HSCT,and to provide reference for clinical application of tacrolimus. METHODS:The blood concentration of tacrolimus in 16 inpatients were monitored with EMIT 3 months after Allo-HSCT. The occurrence of Graft-versus-Host disease(GVHD),ADR and drug combination were analyzed and discussed. RESULTS:A large individual dif-ferences were found in blood concentration of tacrolimus. When blood concentration <8 ng/ml,there seems a greater possibility of GVHD. When >20 ng/ml,the occurrence of diabetes,kidney damage and other side effects seems increased. Tacrolimus had a good effect on treatment and prevention of GVHD,and could have an interaction with other drugs. CONCLUSIONS:Blood concentration monitoring of tacrolimus plays an important role on the prevention and treatment of GVHD,and the decrease of side effects such as diabetes and neurotoxicity. The satisfactory blood concentration is 8-20 ng/ml,when there seems a smaller possibility of GVHD and ADR 3 months after Allo-HSCT.

Objective To investigate the effect of standardized usage of antibiotics and hand hygiene on carbapenem-re-sistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) infection in neonates. Methods According to the situation of standardized management of an-tibiotics in our hospital, the study period, from January 2011 to December 2013, was divided into pre-intervention, transition and post-intervention. Retrospective study was employed to analyze the antibiotics use density (AUD), the hand hygiene compliance rate among the medical staff, the positive rate of CRE and the nosocomial infection percentage of the neonatology department. Results From pre-intervention to post-intervention period, the AUD was decreased from 12.93 DDDs to 8.10 DDDs;hand hy-giene compliance rate of medical staff was increased from 53.49%to 83.33%;the detection rate of CRE was decreased from 3.71%to 2.27%. The differences were all signiifcant among different periods (P<0.01). The nosocomial infection percentage decreased from 0.22%to 0.17%and there was no signiifcant difference (P=0.441). Conclusions Standardized usage of antibiotics and hand hygiene can be served as economical yet effective approaches to controlling CRE infection in neonates.

Objective To collect the incidence and distribution of congenital malformations ,find monitor-ing and preventive measures,to provide a basis for reasonable allocation of health resources for clinical depart-ments. Methods According to The International Classification of Diseases(ICD-10)chapter 17 encoding table, we analyze our hospital′s cases from January 2003 to December 2010 in order to understand the incidence of con-genital malformations of every system. Results Top five diseases are:cleft palate deformity ,genital malforma-tion,congenital heart disease and digestive system malformation in equal third place,and facial deformity. The age ranged from 1d to 35 y,men more than women. Conclusions The key to effectively reduce the incidence of con-genital malformation is strictly implement the three-level intervention mechanism. Prevention ,early detection and early treatment will improve the patient′s quality of life.

Aim To investigate the protective effects of total triterpenoid from Prunella vulgaris L. ( TTP) on CCl4-induced hepatic fibrosis in rats and its mecha-nism. Methods Rat liver fibrosis was induced by 50% CCl4 twice a week for 12 weeks. From the 5th week, all the therapeutic groups were treated with the TTP(25, 50, 100 mg·kg-1 ) and the colchicine (0. 1 mg· kg-1 ) respectively once a day for 8 weeks. At the end of the twelfth week, the levels of ALT, AST, HA, PCⅢ, CⅣ, MDA, SOD, GSH-Px, Hyp were measured . HE and Masson staining were used to evalu-late the degree of hepatic fibrosis. The mRNA expres-sion ofα-SMA, procollagen I, Smad2, Smad3, Smad7 in liver was detected by RT-PCR, and the p-ERK pro-tein expression was evaluated by Western blot. Results Compared with the model group, TTP(25, 50, 100 mg·kg-1 ) not only reduced serum content of ALT, AST, HA, PCⅢ, CⅣand Hyp, MDA in liver tissue, improved the morphologic changes of hepatic fibrosis, but also increased SOD and GSH-Px activity. Moreo-ver, it decreased the α-SMA, procollagen I, Smad2, Smad3 mRNA expression and increased Smad7 mRNA expression in liver tissues obviously. Furthermore, TTP reduced the protein expression of p-ERK. Conclusions TTP can protect rats from CCl4-induced liver fibro-sis. The mechanism of this process may involve inhibi-ting the expression of p-ERK and interference with TGF-β1/Smad signal transduction pathway.

6-(Methylsulfinyl) hexyl isothiocyanate (6-MSITC) is an active ingredient present in Wasabi, which is a popular pungent spice used in Japanese cuisine. Our previous studies suggested that the primary antioxidant activity of 6-MSITC may link to other biological activity. This study aimed to clarify how the antioxidant activity of 6-MSITC contributes to preventing overloaded lipid stress in he-patic cell model. HepG2 cells were treated with 6-MSITC at defined concentrations and times in normal medium or in combined fatty acids (CFA) medium, and the targeted proteins were detected by Western blotting. The kinetic data revealed that 6-MSITC activated AMP-activated protein kinase α (AMPKα) and nuclear factor (erythroid-derived 2) like 2 (Nrf2), and then enhanced the protein expression of Forkhead box protein O1 (FOXO1) and Sirtuin1 as well as that of the Nrf2 target proteins, NAD(P)H:quinone oxidoreductase 1 (NQO1) and heme oxygenase (HO-1). Furthermore, lipid metabolic stress was mimicked in HepG2 cells by overloading CFA. 6-MSITC significantly alleviated CFA-induced formation of thiobarbituric acid reactive substances and fat ac-cumulation. Signaling analysis data revealed that 6-MSITC enhanced phosphorylation of AMPKα, upregulated the expression of Nrf2, NQO1, heme oxygenase 1, FOXO1, and Siruin1, and downregulated the expression of PPARα. Taken together, our results suggested that the AMPKα/Nrf2-mediated signaling pathways might be involved in the cytoprotective effects of Wasabi 6-MSITC against metabolic lipid stress.

Objective:To investigate the clinical features, diagnostic methods, treatment modalities, and prognosis of parathyroid multiglandular disease (PTMGD) in primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) .Methods:The clinical data of 29 patients with PTMGD who underwent surgery at the General Surgery Department of the Tianjin Medical University General Hospital from Dec. 2015 to Jul. 2023 were retrospectively analyzed, including the patients' preoperative and postoperative blood calcium and parathyroid hormone, the main clinical manifestations, the involvement of other systems, the main types of pathology, the accuracy of the various examinations, and the postoperative prognosis, etc., and were compared with the 291 patients who had undergone surgery for single-glandular lesion patients were compared. SPSS25 was used to analyze the data.Results:The age of onset of PTMGD was 52.7±1.9 years compared to 56.6±0.7 years in patients with monoglandular disease, P=0.047. Tumor diameter of PTMGD was (2.05±0.1) cm and (2.34±0.6) cm of monoglandular disease, P=0.006. The preoperative blood calcium was (2.56±0.59) mmol/L in PTMGD and (2.70±0.58) mmol/L in monoglandular disease, P=0.045. Preoperative parathyroid hormone (PTH), blood calcium, and Win values were positively correlated with maximum tumor diameter in patients with PTMGD (R-values of 0.362, 0.223, and 0.352, respectively) .Neck ultrasound, neck-enhanced CT and parathyroid nuclear imaging were used to localize and diagnose the diseased parathyroid glands in this group of cases.The accuracy rates were (14/25) 56%, (10/19) 53% and (11/24) 46% in patients with PTMGD, while in patients with monoglandular disease, the accuracy rates were (233/250) 89%, (131/152) 96% and (223/232) 86%. PTMGD accuracy rate was less than that of monoglandular disease,and was statistically significant ( P-value was less than 0.001 in all cases) .The accuracy of the combined localization diagnosis of the three tests in patients with PTMGD was then improved to (13/18) 72%. The pathology of PTMGD was predominantly parathyroid hyperplasia, 45/72 (63%), compared to that of monoadenopathy 18/291 (6%), P<0.001. Parathyroid adenomas predominated in patients with monoadenopathy compared to that of PTMGD, 237/291 (82%) vs. 24/72 (33%), and the proportion of parathyroid adenomas in patients with monoadenopathy was higher than that in patients with PTMGD, P<0.001. 23 patients with PTMGD were followed up, of whom 9 showed mild elevation of parathyroid hormone postoperatively, and 1 patient showed signs of hypoparathyroidism. Conclusion:The low age of onset of multiglandular lesions in primary hyperparathyroidism, mild biochemical tests, and the difficulty of accurately locating all lesions preoperatively warrant adequate preoperative evaluation to promptly identify patients with familial multiple endocrine adenomas, as well as intraoperative bilateral parathyroid exploration in patients with suspected multiglandular lesions.

Objective:To discuss the effect of Hashimoto’s thyroiditis (HT) on papillary thyroid carcinoma (РТС) .Methods:The clinical features and pathological characteristics of 682 patients who underwent surgical treatment for the first time from Sep. 1st,2019 to May. 1st, 2021 in Department of Thyroid, Breast and Hernia Surgery, and confirmed by postoperative pathology as papillary thyroid carcinoma were retrospectively analyzed. There were 189 male patients, and 493 female patients, 529 patients < 55 years old and 153 patients ≥55 years old. 476 patients were classified as PTC group and 206 patients as PTC combined with HT group. Chi square test was used to compare the difference between two groups in gender, age, thyroglobulin antibody, thyroid stimulating hormone, thyroid peroxidase antibodies, thyroid peroxidase, number of lesions, metastasis lymph node in central region, thyroid stimulating hormone receptor antibody, carcinoembryonic antigen, whether microcarcinoma, vascular invasion, glandular outside violation, capsule and lateral transfer analysis, ultrasonic calcification, etc. At the same time, all patients were divided into the group without central lymph node metastasis (345 cases) and the group with central lymph node metastasis (337 cases) . The χ 2 test was used to compare the differences between the two groups in terms of sex, age, number of lesions, microcarcinoma, vascular invasion, extradular invasion, capsular invasion, lateral cervical lymph node metastasis, ultrasonic calcification and so on, so as to analyze the differences in clinical characteristics between the two groups. Results:There were 206 cases (30.21%) in PTC combined with HT group and 476 cases (69.79%) in PTC without HT group. There were significant differences in gender (12/194 vs 177/299) ( P=0.000) , age (175/31 vs 354/122) ( P=0.002) , TgAb (115/91 vs 455/21) ( P=0.000) ,TSH (13/175/18 vs 33/429/14) ( P=0.004) , TPOAb (90/116 vs 422/54) ( P=0.000) , number of lesions (114/92 vs 325/151) ( P=0.001) and lymph node metastasis in central area (87/119 vs 250/226) ( P=0.014) between the two groups ( P < 0.05) , but there were no significant differences in TRAb (196/10 vs 461/15) ( P=0.171) , CEA (205/1 vs 469/7) ( P=0.478) , microcarcinoma (136/70 vs 309/167) ( P=0.781) , vascular invasion (4/202 vs 16/460) ( P=0.446) , extraglandular invasion (52/154 vs 108/368) ( P=0.470) , capsule invasion (149/57 vs 358/118) ( P=0.429) , lateral neck lymph node metastasis (31/175 vs 72/404) ( P=0.979) or ultrasonic calcification (157/49 vs 392/84) ( P=0.063) . Compared with PTC group, PTC combined with HT group had the characteristics of more women, younger age, high TgAb, high TSH, high TPOAb, multiple lesions and high proportion of non central lymph node metastasis. There were 345 cases (50.59%) without central lymph node metastasis and 337 cases (49.41%) with central lymph node metastasis. Gender (71/274 vs 118/219) ( P=0.000) , age (246/99 vs 283/54) ( P=0.000) , exadular invasion (66/279 vs 94/243) ( P=0.007) , number of lesions (240/105 vs 199/138) ( P=0.004) , microcarcinoma (259/86 vs 186/151) ( P=0.000) , calcification on ultrasound (250/95 vs 299/38) ( P=0.000) , and HT (119/226 vs 87/250) ) ( P=0.014) had statistical significance ( P<0.05) but had no statistical significance in capsule invasion (250/95 vs 257/80) ( P=0.256) or vascular invasion (10/335 vs 10/327) ( P=0.958) . In addition, patients in the group with central lymph node metastasis were more male, younger, with multiple lesions, exadenocarcinoma, less microcarcinoma, and calcification on ultrasound without hashimoto. Univariate analysis showed that gender, age, number of lesions, extraglandular invasion, calcification, microcarcinoma and Hashimoto had significant effects on lymph node metastasis in the central region; Multivariate analysis showed that the presence of microcarcinoma, ultrasonic calcification, Hashimoto and the number of lesions were independent risk factors for central lymph node metastasis. Conclusion:HT may promote the occurrence of PTC, but at the same time inhibit its development, so that PC patients with HT have a better prognosis.

At present, the routine specialized training for primary pediatricians (focusing on theoretical learning of public subjects) cannot meet the needs of primary pediatricians. In order to promote the development of children's medical care at the grassroots level and improve the quality, medical and clinical research abilities of regional pediatric medical personnel, the Children's Hospital of Chongqing Medical University has designed and built a "hierarchical training model for improving the professional ability of pediatricians" from the aspects of training objectives, training contents, training methods, construction and evaluation of training programs, and quality control. In addition, the 8-month "Pediatric Professional Basic Training" and the 9-month "Pediatric Professional Ability Improvement Training" were respectively carried out in Xianyang Children's Hospital. In the "Professional Basic Training", 88 trainees were comprehensively evaluated after training, 53 of whom were qualified or above. In the "Ability Improvement Training", 26 of the 29 students actually participated in the evaluation and reached the qualified level or above. Learners provided feedbacks that they have effectively improved their own knowledge structure, expanded their clinical diagnosis and treatment thinking and clinical research ideas, and provided some guidance for clinical work.

Objective To discuss the role of teachers in the integrated PBL teaching of pediatrics in the light of the investigation of students after PBL teaching.Method The multidisciplinary integrated PBL course established by the Department of Pediatrics of Chongqing Medical University has been implemented for more than two years in the teaching of the five year program in the Department of clinical medicine (pediatric direction).From September 28,2016 to October 25th,the researchers conducted a survey of 26 undergraduate students in the college who received PBL teaching at the professional probation stage.After the end of each PBL class,the teaching evaluation questionnaire recommended by Fudan University and Qian Ruizhe was distributed through the network teaching platform of Chongqing Medical University.The questionnaire was retrieved by students without a name,and the survey was carried out 3 times.The data of the questionnaire were summarized with Excel 2007.Result 77 questionnaires were issued and 77 were recovered,with a recovery rate of 100％.In the multidisciplinary integrated PBL class,94.8％-97.4％ students gave high score evaluation,and all the evaluation of teachers reached "excellent" level.In response to open-ended questions,students believed that teachers in teaching could inspire students to think positively,encourage students to express different views,create a mutually trusted environment for students,and cultivate students' interpersonal communication,communication and cooperation ability.Conclusion In pediatric multidisciplinary integrated PBL teaching,teachers should teach students correct learning methods,judge each student's knowledge and thinking level,and individualize teaching for each student's problems and characteristics.

Objective To study the risk factors of severe complications possibly associated with exchange transfusion (ET) for patients with extreme hyperbilirubinemia.Method From May 2001 to May 2018,neonates with severe complications of ET were assigned into adverse event group.The propensity score principle was used to match adverse event group/the control group with the ratio of 1 ∶ 3.The neonates in the control group received ET without any severe complications.The demographic characteristics of patients,and other clinical data were reviewed.The Logistic regression analysis was used to determine the risk factors of severe complications of ET.Result Among the 1 535 neonates who received ET during the past 17 years,71 neonates (4.6％) were identified with severe adverse events,including apnea (30.6％),necrotizing enterocolitis (18.8％),heart failure (14.1％),respiratory failure (12.9％),and shock (8.2％).The Logistic regression analysis showed that acute bilirubin encephalopathy (ABE) score ≥ 3 (OR=6.383,95％CI 2.550～15.979),ETs ≥ 2 times (OR=11.825,95％CI 2.464～56.755),cardiac murmur ≥ grade Ⅲ (OR=20.417,95％CI 4.705～40.590),and dramatic blood pressure fluctuation during ET ≥ 30 mmHg (OR=13.612,95％CI 1.795～43.342) were risk factors of ET related severe complications (all P＜0.05).Conclusion The indications should be carefully assessed before ET.The patients with ABE score ≥ 3,ETs ≥ 2 times,cardiac murmur ≥ grade Ⅲ,or dramatic blood pressure fluctuation during ET ≥ 30 mmHg should be monitored carefully and ET should be stopped in time if necessary.
