Objective: To analyze the death among children under 5 years of age in Huzhou City, Zhejiang Province from 2012 and 2021, so as to provide insights into reduction of mortality among children. Methods: The mortality surveillance data among children under 5 years of age in Huzhou City from 2012 to 2021 were collected from Children Death Report Cards and Surveillance Report among Children under 5 Years of Age, including gender, place of residence, date of death and death diagnosis. The trends in mortality and cause of death were analyzed among children under 5 years of age in Huzhou City from 2012 to 2021. Results: A total of 1 262 deaths occurred among children under 5 years of age in Huzhou City from 2012 to 2021, with mean annual mortality of 4.39‰, and the mortality appeared a tendency towards a decline (χ2trend=132.695, P<0.001). A total of 899 infants died, with mean annual mortality of 3.13‰, and 363 children at ages of 1 to <5 years died, with mean annual mortality of 1.26‰. The mortality appeared a tendency towards a decline among both infants (χ2trend=117.778, P<0.001) and children at ages of 1 to <5 years (χ2trend=19.201, P<0.001). A total of 724 local children died, with mean annual mortality of 3.33‰, and there were 538 deaths among floating children, with mean annual mortality of 7.65‰. The mortality appeared a tendency towards a decline among both local (χ2trend=43.728, P<0.001) and floating children (χ2trend=94.038, P<0.001). The five most common causes of death included preterm birth or low birth weight (207 deaths, 16.40%), drowning (155 deaths, 12.28%), accidental asphyxia (138 deaths, 10.94%), other congenital abnormalities (126 deaths, 9.98%), and congenital heart diseases (113 deaths, 8.95%). Conclusions The mortality appeared a tendency towards a decline among children under 5 years of age in Huzhou City from 2012 to 2021, and preterm birth or low birth weight was the predominant cause of death.

Objective To design a quantitative criterion and grading system for injury from adverse drug reaction (ADR) in order to serve the compensation system of injury from ADR. Methods Based on the other grading system of injury cases, the independent scores and serial grades were given to the ADR injury of different organs or different levels through two turns of consultation to 27 experts from Shanghai. Results Injury from ADR was graded from stage 1 to stage 10 according to the damage degree, with 1 stand for death and 10 for slightest injury. Conclusion The grading method of ADR based on the characteristics of injury accords with the condition of China, and can provide reference for making up the compensation system of ADR injury.

Objective To evaluate the effects of root canal cleanliness on the fracture resistance of roots filled with AH-Plus. Methods Eighty single canal premolars were instrumented using step-back technique, then were randomly di-vided into four groups (n=20 for each group). Group A was washed with distilled water for 10 min, group B1 was washed with 5%EDTA for 1 min, group B2 was washed with 5%EDTA for 5 min and group B3 was washed with 5%EDTA for 10 min. Ten samples of each group were observed by scanning electron microscope at the coronal, middle and apical thirds to exam-ine smear layer removal. The remaining samples of each group were fixed into a electronic universal testing machine and ver-tically loaded until fracture. Results The difference of coronal and middle thirds was significant between group B3 and group B2 (P<0.05). At the middle third, there was significantly improved efficiency in smear layer removal in group B2 than that of group B1(P<0.05). The mean fracture resistance was significantly higher in group B3 (391.91±12.82)N than that of group B2 (335.54±16.14)N, group B1(296.47±17.82) N and group A (264.77±16.64)N (P<0.05). Group B2 showed a signifi-cantly better fracture resistance than that of group B1 and group A (P<0.05). Conclusion The complete removal of root ca-nal smear layer can significantly improve the fracture resistances of roots filled with AH-Plus.

Objective To investigate the reaction kinetics between the stone-dissolving solution and the urinary stone in a model simulating the condition of a kidney for further clinical administration. Methods An artificial upper urinary tract was made by silica gel. Lactic acid prepared in the preliminary study was used to react with artificial stone in the model. The concentration of reaction product in the effluent was measured to identify the reaction velocity. Relationships between the efficiency and dissolution rate or stone surface was investigated. Results The highest utilization rate of dissolution was 100 ~ 150 mL/h. Dissolution efficiency is in positive rela-tion with stone surface. The efficiency correlates with the stone surface and infusion speed in the range of 50~400 mL/h. Conclusions Before dissolution treatment ,the stone should be shattered as deeply as possible to in-crease the surface of reaction. If possible ,the irrigating speed should be as high as possible to eliminate the stone sooner.

Objective To study the clinical efficacy and adverse reactions of the preoperative neo-adjuvant chemotherapy with oxaliplatin plus fluorouracil and calcium folinate (FOLFOX) in the treatment of advanced gastric carcinoma that was difficult to undergo radical operation. Methods We enrolled 16 patients with advanced gastric carcinomas that were unable to undergo radical operation admitted to our hospital from April 2008 to October 2009. The neo-adjuvant chemotherapy regimen was oxaliplatin 130 mg/m~2 for first one, fluorouracil 500 mg/m~2 and calcium folinate 200 mg/m~2 from first day to fifth day,and one treatment course was three weeks and the patients underwent two courses.The changes of the primary lesion and the adverse reactions of the patients were observed. Results Carcinomas of 13 patients were degraded after the treatment, of which, 11 patients underwent radical resections after 4-6 weeks after operation.There were two cases of complete remission (CR) , 10 cases of partial remission (PR), three cases of stable disease(SD) and one case of progress disease(PD) , and the total effective rate was 75.0% (12/16). Adverse reactions included bone marrow suppression, diarrhea, nausea and vomiting and paresthesia, which were relieved after appropriate symptomatic treatment. Conclusions Neoadjuvant chemotherapy with FOLFOX can improve the resection rate of the advanced gastric carcinoma that is unable to undergo radical resection, and the patients' tolerability to this regimen is favorable.Thus, the regimen is worthy of generalizing.

Twenty-six novel tricyclic sophoridinic and matrinic derivatives containing a common chlorinated benzene fragment were designed, synthesized and evaluated for their anti-ebolavirus (EBOV) activities. Structure-activity relationship analysis indicated: (i) 12-dichlorobenzyl motif was beneficial for the activity; (ii) the chiral configuration at C5 atom might not affect the activity much. Among the target compounds, compound exhibited the most potent potency against EBOV with an IC value of 5.29 μmol/L and an SI value of over 37.8. Further anti-EBOV assay of identified its high effectiveness, and anti-MARV assay of suggested its inspiring broad-spectrum anti-filovirus activity. The results provided powerful information on further strategic optimization and development of this kind of compounds against filoviruses.
