Objective:To analyze the dynamic changes of neutrophil percentage-to-albumin ratio (NPAR) during treatment with bortezomib-lenalidomide-dexamethasone (VRD) in patients with multiple myeloma (MM),and explore the relationship between NPAR value and short-term prognosis of MM patients. Method:The data of 80 MM patients who underwent VRD chemotherapy at Tangshan Workers Hospital from January 2019 to April 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. NPAR levels were measured before VRD chemotherapy (T0),and on the first day of the third (T1),sixth (T2),and eighth (T3) chemotherapy cycles. All patients were followed up for 1 year,with the recurrence,progression,or death occurring within 1 year after the completion of VRD treatment as the endpoint event. The patients were divided into a good prognosis group and a poor prognosis group based on the follow-up results. The changes in NPAR at T0,T1,T2,and T3 in the two groups were statistically analyzed. The restricted cubic spline method was used to analyzed the relationship between NPAR and adverse short-term prognosis in MM patients undergoing VRD chemotherapy. Results:Among the 80 MM patients,25 cases (31.25％) had poor short-term prognosis,including 19 cases (23.75％) of progression or recurrence,and 6 cases (7.50％) of all-cause mortality. The levels of neutrophils and NPAR in the poor prognosis group at T0,T1,T2 and T3 were higher than those in the good prognosis group at the same period,while the albumin levels in the poor prognosis group at T0,T1,and T2 were lower than those in the good prognosis group at the same period (P<0.05);There was no significant difference in albumin levels between the poor prognosis group and the good prognosis group at T3 (P>0.05). Within the poor prognosis group and the good prognosis group,the levels of neutrophils and NPAR decreased sequentially at T0,T1,T2,and T3,while the levels of albumin increased sequentially,and the differences between each stage were statistically significant (P<0.05). The restricted cubic spline model showed an approximate J-shaped curve between the risk of poor short-term prognosis and the pre-treatment NPAR level in MM patients (P<0.05). If the pre-treatment NPAR>0.52,the risk of poor short-term prognosis in MM patients increased with the increase of NPAR value. Conclusion:After VRD treatment,the NPAR value of MM patients gradually decreases,and there is a correlation between the NPAR value before VRD treatment and the risk of poor prognosis after treatment. If NPAR>0.52 before treatment,the higher the NPAR value,the higher the risk of poor short-term prognosis in MM patients.

Objective:To assess the efficacy of parent training (PT) on attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) symptoms, behavioral problems, and parenting stress in child with ADHD or ADHD symptoms.Methods:Randomized controlled trials of the effect of PT on ADHD symptoms in Chinese children with ADHD or ADHD symptoms were collected by PsychINFO, PubMed, EMBASE, Web of science, Scopus, China National Knowledge database, WanFang database, the China Science and Technology Journal Database and the China Biology Medicine disc. The quality of the included studies was evaluated by version 2 of the Cochrane tool for assessing risk of bias in randomized trial. Forest plots were drawn using Review Manager 5.4.1, sensitivity analyses of results were performed using Stata 18.0 to assess the stability of the results, and publication bias was assessed using funnel plots and Egger's test.Results:A total of 10 studies containing 571 subjects in the experimental group and 562 subjects in the control group met the inclusion exclusion criteria. Significant differences were observed in various measures, including overall ADHD symptoms (MD=-2.43, 95% CI: -3.95--0.91), inattention (MD=-1.10, 95% CI: -1.94--0.26), hyperactivity/impulsivity (SMD=-0.58, 95% CI: -0.87--0.28), overall conduct problems (SMD=-0.80, 95% CI: -1.05--0.55), conduct problem (SMD=-1.34, 95% CI: -2.31--0.37), learning problem (SMD=-0.81, 95% CI: -1.40--0.23), impulsivity/hyperactivity (SMD=-0.53, 95% CI: -0.78--0.29), hyperactivity index (SMD=-1.27, 95% CI: -1.99--0.55), parenting stress index (SMD=-0.69, 95% CI: -1.12--0.26), difficult child (MD=-1.96, 95% CI: -3.44--0.48), dysfunctional interaction (MD=-3.10, 95% CI: -4.43--1.78), and parenting distress (MD=-3.35, 95% CI: -4.59--2.12)(all P<0.05). However, no significant differences were observed in oppositional-defiant disorder, anxiety, or somatic problem. Conclusions:The initial findings suggested that PT was effective for Chinese children with ADHD or ADHD symptoms.The addition of PT appeared to improve core symptoms of ADHD (inattention and hyperactivity/impulsivity), conduct problems, and parental stress more effectively than routine care alone.

Objective:To analyze the dose-response relationship of 99Tc m-dimercaptosuccinic acid (DMSA) in pediatric renal static imaging. Methods:A retrospective analysis of children (model group: n=199, 81 males, 118 females; validation group: n=30, 13 males, 17 females; all age: 1 month-14 years) who underwent 99Tc m-DMSA renal static imaging from January 2022 to November 2023 in Wuhan Children′s Hospital, Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology were conducted. Post-administration radiation counts and related clinical data were collected. Imaging quality was evaluated using visual analogue scoring (VAS). ROC curve analysis was used to assess the relationship between radiation count intensity (RCI) and imaging quality. A nonlinear mixed-effects modeling method was employed to establish the dose-response relationship for 99Tc m-DMSA in pediatric renal static imaging. Internal and external validations of the model were performed. Final model was utilized to evaluate patient dosing protocols. Results:Body weight was considered as a significant determinant of the dose-response relationship in 99Tc m-DMSA renal static imaging( χ2 values: 120.79, 116.36, both P<0.05). ROC curve analysis showed that the quality of diagnostic images was acceptable when the anterior renal RCI was ≥32.61 (cut-point) and the posterior renal RCI was ≥35.46 (cut-point). Both internal and external validation results demonstrated that the dose-response model established exhibited good prediction performance. Based on the final model graph, the image quality could meet the requirements for clinical diagnosis. Conclusions:The 99Tc m-DMSA dose-response model for pediatric renal static imaging is successfully established. Individualized dosage based on the model can provide a reference for clinical individualized dosing decision-making.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of emodin on high glucose (HG)-induced podocyte apoptosis and whether the potential anti-apoptotic mechanism of emodin is related to induction of adenosine-monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK)/mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR)-mediated autophagy in podocytes (MPC5 cells) in vitro. METHODS: MPC5 cells were treated with different concentrations of HG (2.5, 5, 10, 20, 40, 80 and 160 mmol/L), emodin (2, 4, 8 µ mol/L), or HG (40 mmol/L) and emodin (4 µ mol/L) with or without rapamycin (Rap, 100 nmol/L) and compound C (10 µ mol/L). The viability and apoptosis of MPC5 cells were detected using cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) assay and flow cytometry analysis, respectively. The expression levels of cleaved caspase-3, autophagy marker light chain 3 (LC3) I/II, and AMPK/mTOR signaling pathway-related proteins were determined by Western blot. The changes of morphology and RFP-LC3 fluorescence were observed under microscopy. RESULTS: HG at 20, 40, 80 and 160 mmol/L dose-dependently induced cell apoptosis in MPC5 cells, whereas emodin (4 µ mol/L) significantly ameliorated HG-induced cell apoptosis and caspase-3 cleavage (P<0.01). Emodin (4 µ mol/L) significantly increased LC3-II protein expression levels and induced RFP-LC3-containing punctate structures in MPC5 cells (P<0.01). Furthermore, the protective effects of emodin were mimicked by rapamycin (100 nmol/L). Moreover, emodin increased the phosphorylation of AMPK and suppressed the phosphorylation of mTOR. The AMPK inhibitor compound C (10 µ mol/L) reversed emodin-induced autophagy activation. CONCLUSION Emodin ameliorated HG-induced apoptosis of MPC5 cells in vitro that involved induction of autophagy through the AMPK/mTOR signaling pathway, which might provide a potential therapeutic option for diabetic nephropathy.
