2.Metabolic bone disease of prematurity: diagnosis and management
Chinese Pediatric Emergency Medicine 2021;28(1):50-54
Metabolic bone disease(MBD) in preterm infant is a disorder of calcium and phosphorus metabolism that leads to a decrease in bone mineral content, resulting in clinical, biochemical, and imaging changes.It occurs mostly in very low birth weight and extremely low birth weight newborns.The clinical symptoms usually occur from 6 to 12 weeks after birth, mainly manifested as dyspnea accompanied by mechanical ventilation for a long time, rickety-like changes, and even fracture in severe cases.At present, diagnosis of MBD is characterized by biochemical markers, radiology and ultrasound.As the clinical manifestations of MBD in prematurity occur late, early screening and prevention for high-risk groups play an important role to reduce the risk of MBD.

Abstract: Objective To analyze the epidemiological characteristics of 151 cases of melioidosis and the drug resistance of Burkholderia pseudomallei (BP), in order to provide the basis for diagnosis, treatment and reasonable prevention of melioidosis. Methods A total of 151 inpatients and outpatients from the Second Affiliated Hospital of Hainan Medical University from January 1, 2013 to August 31, 2022 were collected, and clinical specimens were submitted for examination to isolate and identify BP strains. The clinical data of 151cases of melioidosis and the drug resistance characteristics of pathogenic bacteria were retrospectively analyzed, and using SPSS26.0 software for statistical analysis. Results Among 151 cases with BP infection, there were 138 males (91.4%) and 13 females (8.6%); the most patients were aged from 45-<60 years old, accounting for 74 cases (49.0%); melioidosis incidence was concentrated in October (19.2%), November (19.2%), August (9.9%) and July (8.6%), and; the number of confirmed cases showed an increasing trend and the time for confirmation was <10 d; Internal medicine system (31.1%), surgery system (26.5%) and intensive care department (20.5%) were the common departments for treating melioidosis; blood (49.0%), sputum (9.9%) and wound secretion (8.6%) were the main clinical specimens for detecting BP; pulmonary infection (68.2%), sepsis (35.1%) and local suppurative infection (23.8%) were the top clinical manifestations in patients with BP infection; the effective rate of treating melioidosis was 74.8%; abnormal liver function was a risk factor for the curative effect of melioidosis (χ2=5.010, P<0.05); the sensitivity rates of BP strains to sulfamethoxazole-trimethoprim (SXT), doxycycline (DOX), imipenem(IPM), ceftazidime (CAZ), amoxicillin/clavulanate (AMC) and tetracycline (TCY) were generally more than 90%, with sensitivities of 98.7%, 97.2%, 96.7%, 94.0%, 93.2% and 90.7%, respectively. Conclusions It can be concluded that misdiagnosis or missed diagnosis of melioidosis is easy to occur, and the understanding of the epidemiological characteristics and risk factors in this area should be strengthened. The sensitivity of BP to commonly used antibiotics has shown a certain downward trend, clinical use should be standardized, and drug resistance monitoring should be strengthened to improve the efficacy of melioidosis treatment.

OBJECTIVETo study the related risk factors for surgical site infection following Pilon fracture surgery. METH ODS: The data of 561 patients with Pilon fractures treated with open reduction plate osteosynthesis at our institution's trauma centre were collected from January 2006 to December 2012. All the patients were divided into two groups: infection group and non-infection group. In the infection group, there were 23 males and 10 females, ranging in age from 21 to 69 years old, with an average of (45.50±4.40) years old. In the non-infection group, there were 296 males and 232 females, ranging in age from 16 to 76 years old, with an average of (43.50±7.19) years old. The possible risk factors such as age, gender, smoking, diabetes, alcohol abuse, open fractures, compartment syndrome and operative time were studied. The multivariate Logistic regression model was used to analyze the risk, factors.
RESULTSThe infection rate of surgical site after Pilon fracture surgery was 5.88%. There were significant statistical differences between infection group and non-infection group in operative time, open fractures and compartment syndrome. However, multivariate Logistic regression analysis revealed that only operative time was significantly associated with surgical site infection (P=0.005, OR=44.92).
CONCLUSIONOperation time is an independent predictor for post-operative surgical site infection of Pilon fracture treated with open reduction plate osteosynthesis. Though open fracture and compartment syndrome could increase the surgical site infection rate, they could not not be considered as independent predictors.

In China, traditional Chinese medicines (TCMs) have been used in clinical applications for thousands of years. The successful hyphenation of high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and mass spectrometry (MS) has been applied widely in TCMs and biological samples analysis. Undoubtedly, HPLC/MS technique has facilitated the understanding of the treatment mechanism of TCMs. We reviewed more than 350 published papers within the last 5 years on HPLC/MS in the analysis of TCMs. The present review focused on the applications of HPLC/MS in the component analysis, metabolites analysis, and pharmacokinetics of TCMs etc. 50% of the literature is related to the component analysis of TCMs, which show that this field is the most popular type of research. In the metabolites analysis, HPLC coupled with electrospray ionization quadrupole time-of-flight tandem mass spectrometry has been demonstrated to be the powerful tool for the characterization of structural features and fragmentation behavior patterns. This paper presented a brief overview of the applications of HPLC/MS in the analysis of TCMs. HPLC/MS in the fingerprint analysis is reviewed elsewhere.

Objective To explore the expression of tankyrase (TNKS) and its relationship with WNT/β-catenin signal?ing pathway in lung acinar adenocarcinoma. Methods Seventy-two samples of single subtype alveolar like lung adenocarci?noma (lung adenocarcinoma group) and 67 specimens of normal lung tissue adjacent to carcinoma (adjacent to carcinoma group) were collected. Immunohistochemical method was used to detect expressions of TNKS, beta-catenin (β-catenin) and c-myc protein. The correlation of each protein expression in lung adenocarcinoma tissues was analyzed. The differential ex?pression of TNKS was detected by Western blot assay in two groups. Results Tankyrase protein was mainly expressed in cy?toplasm. The expression ofβ-catenin protein was mainly in cytoplasm and nuclear of lung adenocarcinoma. The expression ofβ-catenin was mainly in cytoplasm, and a small amount was in nuclear of the adjacent group. The c-myc protein was ex?pressed mainly in the nucleus. The positive expression rates of TNKS,β-catenin and c-myc protein were significantly high?er in lung adenocarcinoma group than those of adjacent to carcinoma group (P<0.05). The expression ofβ-catenin in cyto?plasm and nucleus was positively correlated with the expression of TNKS and c-myc (P<0.05). Western blot analysis showed that the relative expression level of TNKS was significantly higher in lung adenocarcinoma group than that of adja?cent to carcinoma group (0.497 ± 0.021 vs. 0.237 ± 0.015, t=13.00, P<0.01). Conclusion Abnormally high expression of TNKS in lung adenocarcinoma may promote the occurrence of lung cancer by regulating the WNT signaling pathways. Inhib?iting TNKS expression may become a new target to treat lung adenocarcinoma.
