Objective To analyze the clinical characteristics of 310 patients with anti-tuberculosis drug-induced liver injury(ATB-DILI),to explore prognostic influencing factors,and to provide reference for its prevention and treatment.Methods Primary tuberculosis patients hospitalized in the Department of Tuberculosis of the Third People's Hospital of Kunming from November 2020 to November 2022 who met the diagnosis of ATB-DILI were enrolled.Statistics by gender,age,history,type of tuberculosis,co-morbidities,frequency of anti-tuberculosis regimens leading to liver injury,use of hepatoprotective drugs,and management and regression were performed to analyze the clinical characteristics of the patients and the factors influencing their prognosis.Results 310 patients were included,male,148(47.74%)and female,162(52.26%).The mean age was 44.33±17.47 years.Thirty-four patients had a history of allergy.The combination of isoniazid,rifampicin,pyrazinamide,and ethambutol(244 patients,78.71%)was the anti-tuberculosis regimen that resulted in the highest number of cases of hepatic injury.The median time between initiation of the tuberculosis regimen and the development of hepatic injury in patients with ATB-DILI was 30 d,and the mean duration of hospitalization was 16.39±7.01 d.The most used hepatoprotective drug was reduced glutathione(154 patients,49.68%),and most patients used a combination of 2 hepatoprotective drugs(128 patients,41.29%).Liver injury improved in 257 cases(82.90%)and failed in 53 cases(17.10%).The differences in alcohol consumption,severity,clinical staging,TT,ALP,TBIL,DBIL,IBIL,and GGT were statistically significant compared to those who did not recover(P<0.05),and severity and high ALP were independent risk factors for poor prognosis.Conclusions Patients should be carefully asked if they have a history of basic liver disease and alcoholism before using anti-tuberculosis drugs.In the course of anti-tuberculosis treatment,the combined use of anti-tuberculosis drugs is more serious than the use of single drugs to cause liver damage.Drugs that may cause liver damage should be used with caution and improved anti-tuberculosis programs should be explored.At the same time,liver function should be monitored regularly during anti-tuberculosis treatment,especially 30 days after medication,in order to reduce the occurrence of adverse reactions.

Objective:
To investigate the association of sugar sweetened beverage (SSB) consumption with insomnia and depressive symptoms among first grade middle school students from Yunnan Province, so as to provide evidence to guide interventions for the treatment of these symptoms in this population.
Methods:
From October to December 2022, 8 500 firstgrade middle school students from 11 counties in Yunnan Province were selected by cluster random sampling. Depressive symptoms, SSB consumption, and insomnia symptoms among students were evaluated by the Child Depression Scale (CDI), dietary frequency questionnaire, and Insomnia Severity Index (ISI). A Logistic regression model was employed to analyze the relationship between SSB consumption, insomnia, depressive symptoms, and their interaction effects among students.
Results:
The detection rate of depressive symptoms was 28.3%, and having insomnia symptoms ( OR=6.07, 95%CI =5.46-6.75), consuming carbonated beverages ( OR=1.20, 95%CI =1.08-1.34), tea ( OR=1.13, 95%CI =1.02-1.25), energy drinks ( OR=1.36, 95%CI =1.23-1.50), and other beverages ( OR=1.32, 95%CI =1.19-1.45) were positively correlated with depressive symptoms among first grade middle school students ( P < 0.05). Carbonated beverages (additive effect: OR=2.96, 95%CI =2.72-3.22, multiplicative effect: OR=4.75, 95%CI =4.25- 5.32 ), fruit drinks (additive effect: OR=2.61, 95%CI =2.40-2.82; multiplicative effect: OR=4.43, 95%CI =3.94-4.97), tea (additive effect: OR=2.70, 95%CI =2.47-2.89; multiplicative effect: OR=4.34, 95%CI =3.86-4.89), energy drinks (additive effect: OR=2.82, 95%CI =2.61-3.05; multiplicative effect: OR=4.48, 95%CI =3.92-5.12), sweetened milk (additive effect: OR= 2.73, 95%CI =2.06-2.96; multiplicative effect: OR=4.61, 95%CI =4.12-5.17) and other beverages (additive effect: OR= 2.73 , 95%CI =2.53-2.95; multiplicative effect: OR=4.56, 95%CI =4.00-5.20) had both additive and multiplicative effects with insomnia, and increased the risk of depressive symptoms in first grade middle school students ( P <0.01).
Conclusions
The interaction between the consumption of SSB and insomnia symptoms may increase the risk of depressive symptoms among first grade middle school students in Yunnan Province. It is necessary to advocate middle school students to reduce SSB intake, in order to decrease the occurrence of depressive symptoms among this population.

Objective To investigate the extraction methods for active components from oral ulcer film and optimize the determination methods of active components dexamethasone sodium phosphate and metronazole. Methods Different extraction solvents(methanol, water and 70% methanol aqueous) were applied to extract the active components dexamethasone sodium phosphate and metronazole from oral ulcer film, which contents were quantified by a HPLC method. Results the extraction solvent water had the best efficacy and more simpler compared to the other two solvents. Clotriazole showed a good linear relationship within 5.014 5-200.5800 μg/ml (r=0.999 8), and the average extraction recovery was (104.23±0.63)%, and for dexamethasone sodium phosphate, a good linear relationship was obtained in the range of 0.482-16.328 μg/ml (r=0.9999), and the average extraction recovery was (103.97±1.02)%. Conclusion The water extraction method established in this study was simple and efficient, which showed features of simplicity, accuracy and repeatable.

【Objective】 To explore the surgical treatments and therapeutic outcomes for benign testicular tumor. 【Methods】 Clinical data of 53 patients with benign testicular tumor treated with surgery during May 2004 and Jul.2021 were retrospectively analyzed. 【Results】 The postoperative pathological diagnosis of 53 patients included 33 patients with epidermal cysts, 12 with mature teratomas, 2 with bilateral testicular tumors (one of them was epidermal cysts in the left and mature teratoma in the right, and the other was bilateral leiomyomas), and 6 benign cases. Testis sparing surgery (TSS) group had 23 patients and radical orchiectomy (RO) group had 30 patients. There were no significant differences in patients’ age, tumor location, disease course, and ultrasound examination results between the two groups (P>0.05). The tumor size of the RO group was (2.60±0.94) cm, which was larger than that of the TSS group (1.55±0.52) cm (P<0.001). There were no statistically significant differences in surgical time and postoperative hospital stay between the two groups (P>0.05). A total of 15 patients (13 with TSS and 2 with RO) underwent intraoperative frozen rapid pathological examination (FSA), which was consistent with post-operative paraffin pathological results. Durign the follow up of 2-219 months,median 38 months, there was no recurrence in either groups. 【Conclusion】 Testis sparing surgery is a reliable treatment modality for benign testicular tumor, which may also decrease the level of androgen and incidence of asthenozoospermia. It can be considered for tumors less than 2 cm with benign tendency or uncertain nature.
