Objective To evaluate thetherapeutic effect of sodium deoxyribonucleotide injection at Zusanli point for chemotherapy-induced leukopenia in patients with lung cancer.MethodsA total of 116 chemotherapy-induced leukopenia patients with lung cancer were randomly divided into a therapy group and a control group, 60 in the treatment group and 56 in the control group. The patients in the treatment group were treated with sodium deoxyribonucleotide injection atZusnlipoint, and those in the control group were treated with vein injection of sodium deoxyribonucleotide.Results The total effective rate in the treatment group was significant higher than that in the control group (91.7%vs.76.8%;χ2=4.890,P=0.032). The effective rates on days 3,5,7 and 10 in the treatment group were also significant higher than those in the control group (on day 3: 51.7%vs. 32.1%,χ2=4.530,P=0.036; on day 5: 76.7%vs. 53.6%,χ2=6.840,P=0.018; on day 7: 85.0%vs. 67.9%,χ2=4.770,P=0.026; on day 10: 78.3%vs. 53.6%,χ2=7.960,P=0.011).Conclusion Sodium deoxyribonucleotide injection atZusanlipoint has definite efficacy for chemotherapy-induced leukopenia in patients with lung cancer.

Objective To report a pedigree with X?linked dominant protoporphyria(XLDPP), and to detect 5?aminolevulinic acid synthetase 2(ALAS2)gene mutations in this pedigree. Methods A clinical investigation was performed in a pedigree with XLDPP, and relevant data were collected from family members. A next?generation sequencing method was applied to screen possible mutation sites, and Sanger sequencing was performed to determine pathogenic gene mutations. Dermoscopy was conducted to observe skin lesions in the patients with XLDPP, and the Fotofinder system and very high frequency (VHF) ultrasound system were utilized to assess the severity of photodamage. Liver and gallbladder ultrasonography as well as blood examination were performed for all the family members. Results A deletion mutation, c.1706?1709ΔAGTG, was detected in the ALAS2 gene on the X chromosomes of all the patients in this family, which led to replacement or loss of 19-20 C?terminal residues through transcriptional frameshifting, and eventually caused an increase in ALAS2 activity. In the patients with XLDPP, skin photodamage was relatively severe;protoporphyrin?induced hepatobiliary damage was observed and aggravated with age;anemia and iron deficiency occurred sometimes. Conclusion The deletion mutation c.1706?1709ΔAGTG of the ALAS2 gene may be the underlying cause of XLDPP in this pedigree.

Objective To detect the molecular regulatory mechanism of co-treatment with LA and PCA on P38 MAPK signaling Pathway in the Neurons of Wilson's Disease Model-TX mice.Methods The neurons of TX suckling mice were isolated and cultured by primary method,and were divided into control group,model group,ALA group,PCA group and combined group.Flow cytometry was used to analyze the expression of ROS and JC-1.Western blot was used to detect the expression of P38 MAPK,Cyt C,Caspase 9 and Caspase 3.Results Flow cytometry results showed that MFI of ROS was 59.29±1.22,53.19±1.34 and 52.46±1.23 in ALA,PCA and co-treatment.ALA,PCA and co-treatment could significantly reduce the release of ROS and enhance the fluorescence intensity of JC-1 (P＜0.01).Compared with ALA group and PCA group,combined group could reduce the release of ROS and significantly enhance the fluorescence intensity of JC-1.Western blot indicated that the expression levels of P38 MAPK,Cyt C,Caspase 9,Caspase 3 in the neurons of model group had a remarkable increase compared with control group.Compared with the model group,the three treatment groups could decrease the expression levels of P38 MAPK,Cyt C,Caspase 9 and Caspase 3 in the neurons of TX suckling mice (P＜0.01).Meanwhile,the protein levels of P38 MAPK,Cyt C,Caspase 9 and Caspase 3 had a significant decrease compared with ALA group and PCA group.Conclusion he present findings suggest that co-treatment with LA and PCA can increase the copper excretion,reduce copper-induced mitochondria damage and attenuate the neurotoxicity,which in turn decrease neuronal apoptosis and improve neurological impairment of WD.

Objective:To fulfill the automatic radiolabeling of the norepinephrine transporter (NET) trancer 18F-meta-fluorobenzylguanidine (mFBG), and explore the 18F-mFBG PET/CT imaging effect of pheochromocytoma. Methods:On the basis of the chemical structure of mFBG, a spirocyclic iodonium ylide was used as the precursor to undergo a 3-step reaction sequence (radiofluorination, deprotection and neutralization) on AllinOne synthesis module. Purification by high performance liquid chromatography and formulation were conducted to generate 18F-mFBG. The corresponding quality control tests of 18F-mFBG product was performed.

Parkinson's disease （PD） is a progressive chronic neurodegenerative disorder with a complex pathogenesis involving oxidative stress， neuroinflammation， mitochondrial dysfunction， and other factors. Currently， the clinical treatment of PD mainly includes levodopa， dopamine receptor agonists， monoamine oxidase B inhibitors， catechol-O-methyltransferase inhibitors， and anticholinergic drugs， but there is a lack of disease-modif g therapies that can definitively improve disease progression. According to the understanding of traditional Chinese medicine （TCM）， PD is characterized by asthenia in origin and sthenia in superficiality. It is primarily caused by liver-kidney Yin deficiency， Qi-blood insufficiency， and closely related to wind， fire， phlegm， and blood stasis. Numerous clinical practices have shown that TCM has significant clinical value in the prevention and treatment of PD， the management of motor and non-motor symptoms， and the neuroprotection of dopaminergic neurons. The underlying mechanisms of TCM include antioxidative stress， anti-neuroinflammation， and regulation of mitochondrial dysfunction. This article categorized and summarized the pathogenesis of PD， systematically elucidated the pharmacological actions and molecular mechanisms of TCM monomer extracts and compounds in the prevention and treatment of PD， and provided the latest clinical research progress， aiming to provide references for the development and clinical use of TCM for PD.

ObjectiveTo explore the mechanism of Dendrobium huoshanense polysaccharide （DHP） against inflammatory damage of neurons in Parkinson's disease （PD） model. MethodSH-SY5Y cells were randomized into blank group， model group， and DHP group. The survival rate of cells was measured by thiazole blue（MTT） assay， and the levels of lactate dehydrogenase （LDH）， reactive oxygen species （ROS）， malondialdehyde （MDA）， and superoxide dismutase （SOD） were measured by colorimetric analysis. BV-2 microglia were classified into blank group， model group， DHP group， and MCC950 group （positive control group）， and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA） was applied to detect the levels of tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α）， interleukin-1β （IL-1β）， and interleukin-18 （IL-18）. The expression of NOD-like receptor protein 3 （NLRP3）， adaptor protein apoptosis-associated dot protein （ASC）， cysteine aspartic protease-1 （Caspase-1）， and IL-1β was measured by Western blot. A total of 50 C57BL/6 mice were randomized into blank group， model group， DHP low-dose （100 mg·kg^-1） group， DHP equivalent-dose （350 mg·kg^-1） group， and MCC950 group （positive control group）， 10 mice in each group. The motor balance and coordination of C57BL/6 mice were observed by beam walking test， tail suspension test and rotarod test. The levels of Iba-1 and tyrosine hydroxylase （TH） were detected by immunofluorescence staining. The damage of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra was detected by FJB staining. The levels of inflammatory factors such as IL-1β， IL-18， and TNF-α in mouse midbrain tissues were detected by ELISA and the protein levels of NLRP3， ASC， Caspase-1， and IL-1β protein were measured by Western blot. ResultCompared with the blank group， the SH-SY5Y model group showed decreased cell survival， increased levels of LDH， ROS， and MDA （P<0.05）， and decreased levels of SOD （P<0.05）. Compared with the model group， the DHP group demonstrated increased cell survival， decreased levels of LDH， ROS， and MDA （P<0.01）， and increased level of SOD （P<0.01）. Compared with the blank group， BV-2 model group had high levels of IL-1β， IL-18， and TNF-α （P<0.05） and high protein expression of NLRP3， Caspase-1， IL-1β， and ASC （P<0.05）. Compared with the model group， DHP and MCC950 groups demonstrated low levels of IL-1β， IL-18， and TNF-α （P<0.01） and low protein expression of NLRP3， Caspase-1， IL-1β， and ASC （P<0.01）. Compared with the blank group， the C57BL/6 model group displayed long time to pass the balance wood （P<0.05）， short time spent on the rod in the rotarod test （P<0.05）， high levels of IL-1β， IL-18， and TNF-α （P<0.05） and expression of Iba-1 in the midbrain substantia nigra （P<0.05）， low TH expression （P<0.05）， more positive neurons in the FJB staining （P<0.05）， and high expression of NLRP3， Caspase-1， ASC， and IL-1β proteins （P < 0.05）. Compared with the model group， the mice in the DHP and MCC950 groups had short time to pass the balance beam （P<0.01）， long time spent on the rod （P<0.01）， low levels of IL-1β， IL-18， and TNF-α （P<0.01）， low Iba-1 expression in midbrain substantia nigra （P<0.01）， high TH expression （P<0.01）， and small number of positive neurons in the midbrain substantia nigra （P<0.01）. The expression of NLRP3， ASC， and IL-1β proteins was lower in the MCC950 group （P<0.01）， and the expression of NLRP3， ASC， Caspase-1 and IL-1β proteins was lower in the DHP equivalent-dose group （P<0.01） than in the model group. ConclusionDHP has anti-oxidative stress effect. It regulates the expression of NLRP3 inflammasome and inhibits the overactivation of microglia， thereby alleviating the neuroinflammatory injury in PD and exerting the neuroprotective effect.

Chronic refractory wound (CRW) is one of the most challengeable issues in clinic due to complex pathogenesis, long course of disease and poor prognosis. Experts need to conduct systematic summary for the diagnosis and treatment of CRW due to complex pathogenesis and poor prognosis, and standard guidelines for the diagnosis and treatment of CRW should be created. The Guideline forthe diagnosis and treatment of chronic refractory wounds in orthopedic trauma patients ( version 2023) was created by the expert group organized by the Chinese Association of Orthopedic Surgeons, Chinese Orthopedic Association, Chinese Society of Traumatology, and Trauma Orthopedics and Multiple Traumatology Group of Emergency Resuscitation Committee of Chinese Medical Doctor Association after the clinical problems were chosen based on demand-driven principles and principles of evidence-based medicine. The guideline systematically elaborated CRW from aspects of the epidemiology, diagnosis, treatment, postoperative management, complication prevention and comorbidity management, and rehabilitation and health education, and 9 recommendations were finally proposed to provide a reliable clinical reference for the diagnosis and treatment of CRW.

INTRODUCTIONThe current metastatic category (M) of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is a "catch-all" classification, covering a heterogeneous group of tumors ranging from potentially curable to incurable. The aim of this study was to design an M categorization system that could be applied in planning the treatment of NPC with synchronous metastasis.

METHODSA total of 505 NPC patients diagnosed with synchronous metastasis at Sun Yat-sen University Cancer Center between 2000 and 2009 were involved. The associations of clinical variables, metastatic features, and a proposed M categorization system with overall survival (OS) were determined by using Cox regression model.

RESULTSMultivariate analysis showed that Union for International Cancer Control (UICC) N category (N1-3/N0), number of metastatic lesions (multiple/single), liver involvement (yes/no), radiotherapy to primary tumor (yes/no), and cycles of chemotherapy (>4/≤4) were independent prognostic factors for OS. We defined the following subcategories based on liver involvement and the number of metastatic lesions: M1a, single lesion confined to an isolated organ or location except the liver; M1b, single lesion in the liver and/or multiple lesions in any organs or locations except the liver; and M1c, multiple lesions in the liver. Of the 505 cases, 74 (14.7%) were classified as M1a, 296 (58.6%) as M1b, 134 (26.5%) as M1c, and 1 was not specified. The three M1 subcategories showed significant difference in OS [M1b vs. M1a, hazard ratio (HR) = 1.69, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.16-2.48, P = 0.007; M1c vs. M1a, HR = 2.64, 95% CI = 1.75-3.98, P < 0.001].

CONCLUSIONSWe developed an M categorization system based on the independent factors related to the prognosis of patients with metastatic NPC. This system may be helpful to further optimize individualized care for NPC patients.
