The disease spectrum of ABCB4 gene mutation involves various diseases such as progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis type 3 （PFIC3）， gallstone disease， intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy， portal hypertension， liver cirrhosis， and even primary hepatic and biliary malignancies. A young male patient was admitted to Department of Hepatobiliary Medicine， Eastern Hepatobiliary Surgery Hospital， and was initially diagnosed with liver cirrhosis and gallstones， and he was planned to receive laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Preoperative examination showed abnormal liver function， liver cirrhosis， splenomegaly， and mild esophageal varices， and next-generation sequencing was performed to make a confirmed diagnosis of ABCB4 gene mutation-associated liver cirrhosis with gallstones. The liver function of the patient gradually returned to normal after cholagogic treatment with ursodeoxycholic acid capsules.

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the third leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide and is a global health challenge. Radical surgical resection is the most effective method to achieve long-term survival for HCC. Regrettably, the vast majority of HCC patients lose the opportunity for radical resection at the time of diagnosis due to advanced tumors or poor liver reserve capacity. HCC is resistant to conventional chemotherapy, and in the past, there have been no definite and effective systemic therapeutic drugs. Fortunately, over the last decade, the research and development of molecular targeted therapy and immunotherapy drugs for HCC have made rapid progress, and a variety of drugs and combination therapy regimens have been successively approved for clinical use. However, the overall therapeutic effect is still not ideal and needs further improvement.

Objective To explore the application value of simultaneous multi-slice(SMS)technique in diffusion tensor imaging(DTI)for evaluating brain glioma.Methods Thirty-four brain glioma patients were prospectively enrolled,and brain conventional DTI and SMS-DTI were acquired.The subjective scores of image quality,signal-to-noise ratio(SNR)and contrast-to-noise ratio(CNR)were compared between SMS-DTI and conventional DTI,so were the numbers of whole brain fiber bundles,tumor relative fractional anisotropy(rFA)and relative mean diffusivity(rMD)obtained based on SMS-DTI and conventional DTI.Results Among 34 patients,there were 23 cases of high-grade glioma and 11 cases of low-grade glioma.No significant difference of subjective scores of image quality,tumor edge clarity nor magnetic susceptibility artifacts was found between SMS-DTI and conventional DTI(all P＞0.05).SNR and CNR on SMS-DTI were both lower than those on conventional DTI(both P＜0.05).No significant difference of the numbers of whole brain fiber bundles,rFA nor rMD of gliomas with different pathological grades was detected based on SMS-DTI compared with those on conventional DTI(all P＞0.05).Conclusion SMS applicated in DTI for evaluating brain gliomas was able to shorten acquisition time under the condition of ensuring image quality and quantitative analysis accuracy.

Objective To investigate the expression and significance of the CYB561D2 gene in the prognostic evaluation of patients with glioma based on bioinformatics analysis. Methods A total of 78 pathological specimens were collected from the patients with glioma who received surgical treatment in Department of Neurosurgery，Anqing Municipal Hospital，from October 2018 to December 2022 and were enrolled as experimental group，and 32 specimens of normal brain tissue that must be removed during the surgical pathway were enrolled as control group. Quantitative real-time PCR and immunohistochemistry were used to measure the mRNA and protein expression levels of the CYB561D2 gene in both groups. Results The CYB561D2 gene was highly expressed in the glioma tissue of the patients in the experimental group，and the pathological grade of the tumor increased with the increase in the expression of the CYB561D2 gene，while there were no significant mRNA and protein expression levels of the CYB561D2 gene in the control group，with significant differences between the two groups（χ2=2.75 and 2.19，P<0.05）. Conclusion There are significant increases in the mRNA and protein expression levels of the CYB561D2 gene in glioma，suggesting that CYB561D2 is associated with the development，progression，and malignancy of glioma.

ABSTRACT OBJECTIVE To investigate the children's medication information in β-lactam antibiotics's in children's hospitals in multiple regions, and to provide reference for further improving the drug information in the instructions of β lactam antibiotics. METHODS Collecting 847 drug instructions of β-lactam antibiotics in twenty children's hospitals in China, medication information labeling in drug instructions on children was investigated and analyzed. RESULTS After excluding duplicates, a total of 396 antibacterial drug inserts were obtained, involving 62 varieties, including 12 penicillins(59 copies), 27 cephalosporins(201 copies), etc. But there was two antibacterial drug for children only and up to 376 drugs for children and adults. In all drugs, there were 284 injections(71.72%) and 112 oral preparations(28.28%), among which the most suitable dosage forms for children were dry suspension(24.11%), granules(23.21%) and chewable tablets(4.46%). The annotation rates of children's indication, children's usage and dosage, children's drug guidance, pharmacokinetics in children, children's adverse reactions(396 categories) were respectively 27.78%, 93.69%, 64.65%, 39.14%, 20.96%, respectively. In oral dosage forms, the labeling rate of children's indications was 32.14%, the labeling rate of children's usage and dosage was 95.53%, the labeling rate of medication items for children was 58.93%, among them there were significant differences in the precautions and adverse reaction labeling rates between oral preparation and injections(P<0.05). There was not much difference in the labeling of pediatric medication information between domestic drugs and foreign-related drugs, but there was significant difference in the information labeling of precautions(P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the labeling rate of children's medication information among the seven regional children's hospitals. CONCLUSION There are few pediatric-specific β-lactam antibiotics, and the labeling information for pediatric use in their respective instructions is often incomplete and insufficient to provide meaningful guidance. Relevant departments should pay attention to the incomplete mark of drug use for children, improve the medication information of children in the instructions, and ensure the safety of pediatric drug use.

Objective To analyze the correlation between the concentration of serum and cerebrospinal fluid clusterin(CLU)and the severity of acute traumatic brain injury(TBI).Methods A total of 102 patients with acute moderate and severe TBI admitted to the Second Hospital of Jiaxing from September 2019 to October 2020 were included in the study,and were divided into two batches in chronological order.The first batch of 20 cases were tested for serum CLU content and its time expression map for 4 consecutive days after injury by Western blot;The second batch of 82 cases were divided into groups according to Glasgow coma score(GCS),Rotterdam-CT score and brain contusion and laceration volume,the CLU concentration in serum and cerebrospinal fluid was detected by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA)at peak time according to the serum CLU time expression map,and the differences of CLU concentrations between the groups were compared;The correlation between CLU concentration and patients'general data,GCS score,Rotterdam CT score and brain contusion and laceration volume was analyzed by Spearman correlation coefficient;The factors affecting CLU concentration were analyzed by multiple linear regression.Results The serum CLU concentration gradually increases in patients after TBI,and reached the peak at 3 days after injury;There was no statistical difference in serum CLU concentration in two GCS groups,three Rotterdam-CT score groups and two brain contusion and laceration volume groups(P>0.05),but there was a statistical difference in cerebrospinal fluid CLU concentration(P<0.05);Cerebrospinal fluid CLU concentration was negatively correlated with GCS score(r=-0.542,P<0.05),and positively correlated with Rotterdam-CT score and brain contusion and laceration volume(r=0.414,0.738,P<0.05);There was statistical difference in the influence of brain contusion and laceration volume on cerebrospinal fluid CLU concentration(β=8.074,P<0.001).Conclusion The concentration of CLU in cerebrospinal fluid can reflect the severity of TBI,which is mainly related to the volume of brain contusion and laceration.

Anti-seizure medications (ASMs) are the main therapy for epilepsy.There are many kinds of ASMs with complex mechanism of action, so it is difficult for pharmacists to examine prescriptions.This paper put forward some suggestions on the indications, dosage forms/routes of administration, appropriateness of usage and dosage, combined medication and drug interaction, long-term prescription review, individual differences in pathophysiology of children, and drug selection when complicated with common epilepsy, for the reference of doctors and pharmacists.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the prospective association between cumulative resting heart rate (cumRHR) and rapid renal function decline (RRFD) in a cohort of individuals aged 60 and older. METHODS: In the Tianjin Chronic Kidney Disease Cohort Study, the individuals who underwent three consecutive physical examinations between 2014 and 2017, with estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) greater than 60 mL/min per 1.73 m² and aged 60 years or older were enrolled. A total of 27,564 patients were prospectively followed up from January 1, 2017 to December 31, 2020. The 3-year cumRHR was calculated. The primary outcome was RRFD, defined as an annualized decline in eGFR of 5 mL/min per 1.73 m² or greater. Logistic and restricted spline regression models and subgroup analysis were used to investigate the association of cumRHR with RRFD after adjusting for all confounders. RESULTS: During a median follow-up of 3.2 years, a total of 4,347 (15.77%) subjects developed RRFD. In fully-adjusted models, compared with the lowest quartile of cumRHR, the odds ratio (OR) for the highest was 1.44 (1.28-1.61), P < 0.001. Furthermore, each 1-standard deviation (27.97 beats/min per year) increment in cumRHR was associated with a 17% (P < 0.001) increased risk of RRFD, with a linear positive correlation (P for non-linear = 0.803). Participants with a 3-year cumRHR ≥ 207 (beats/min) * year (equivalent to ≥ 69 beats/min per year in 3 years) were found to be at a higher risk of RRFD. CONCLUSIONS The cumRHR is significantly associated with a higher risk of RRFD among older adults. These results might provide an effective goal for managing and delaying the decline of renal function in the older adults.
