Objective To observe the effect Azithromycin injection in the treatment of mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia ( MPP) in children. Methods Forty-four children of mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia were randomly divided into two groups, the Azithromycin group ( treat by Azithromycin, made by Pfizer) and the control group (treat by domestic Azithromycin) respectively. Improvement in symptoms and signs between the two groups were observed and compared. Results There were 25 cases in the Azithromycin group, of which,after a week, 17 cases cured,2 cases got better significantly and 6 cases got better. The effective ratio was 76. 00% ( 19/25 ). There were 19 cases in the control group, of which 5 cases cured, 9 cases got better significantly ,4 cases got better and 1 case no change. The effective ratio was 73. 68% (14/19). There was no statistical significance in the effective ratio between the two groups ( x2 = 0. 03, P > 0. 05). However, the Azithromycin group was superior to the control group both in the one week cure rate (t = 7.50,P< 0.05) and on defervescence time (t = 34. 05, P < 0. 05 ) and rales disappearance (t = 2. 39, P < 0. 05 ). Conclusion Azithromycin injection is more effective than domestic Azithromycin in the treatment of mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia,especially in the aspect of improving symptoms.

The presence of insufficient bone volume affects the implant healing and success. The aim of this study was to evaluate osteogenic capacity of dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) on micro-arc oxidation (MAO) titanium surface. DPSCs were challenged at MAO and smooth titanium surface separately for different durations, and the bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) served as the positive controls. The osteogenic capacity of DPSCs on MAO titanium surface was assessed by using scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive spectroscopy, biochemical tests and real-time quantitative PCR. Data showed that DPSCs differentiated into osteoblasts and expressed bone morphogenetic genes on MAO titanium surface. The results of this study revealed that DPSCs had good potential to generate mineralized tissue on MAO titanium plates. The differential potential of DPSCs may be regulated by MAO titanium surface. The osteogenesis potential of DPSCs on the MAO titanium was similar with BMSCs.

Objective To investigate the consistency of fetal gallbladder volume (FGV) during middle-late pregnancy with three-dimensional ultrasonic virtual organ computer-aided analysis (VOCAL) technique at different rotation angles,and to analyze the correlation between FGV and gestation age.Methods A total of 157 healthy pregnant women underwent prenatal screening were included.The reference range of FGV was measured with three-dimensional ultrasonic VOCAL at 30°,18° and 12° rotation angle,respectively.The correlation between FGV and gestation age was observed,and the consistency of FGV values measured with VOCAL at different rotation step angles was compared.Results The correlations between FGV values measured with VOCAL at 30°,18°,12° rotation step angles and gestation age were all excellent (r=0.92,0.88,0.90;all P＜ 0.001).The consistency of FGV values measured with VOCAL at different rotation step angles was very good (30° and 18°,ICC=0.94;30° and 12°,ICC=0.97;18° and 12°,ICC=0.94).Conclusion Three-dimensional ultrasonic VOCAL can be used to establish the reference range of fetal gallbladder volume in middle-late pregnancy.The consistency of FGV values measured with VOCAL at different rotation step angles was very good,and the correlation between FGV and gestation age was excellent.

Objective To explore the effect of oridonin on the endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS) in colonic epithelium of ulcerative colitis (UC) mice.Methods The UC mice model was established by sodium dextran sulfate (DSS),and the intervention group of oridonin and sulfasalazine was set up,the disease activity index (DAD was measured,the colonic tissue was evaluated by histopathologidscore (HPS),and RT-qPCR was used to detect the expression of inflammatory cytokines tumor factor-α (TNF-α),interleukin 6 (IL-6),cyclooxygenase 2 (COX-2),glucose-regulated protein 78 (GRP78),transcription factor EBP homologous protein (CHOP),activator transcription factor 6 (ATF6),protein kinase R like endoplasmic reticulum kinase (PERK) and inositol requiring enzyme 1α (IRE1α).Results The expression of TNF-α,IL-6,COX-2,GRP78,ATF6,CHOP,PERK and IRE1α mRNA in the colonic epithelium of the model group were all up-regulated obviously as compared with the healthy control group(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).When compared with the model group,DAI and HPS in oridonin-treated group were significantly decreased (P＜0.05,P＜0.01),which the curative effect was similar to that of the sulfasalazine group(P＞0.05,P＜0.01).The expression of TNF-α,IL-6,COX-2,GRP78,CHOP,ATF6 and PERK mRNA levels were significantly reduced in oridonin-treated group(P＜ 0.05,P＜0.01).Conclusion Oridonin can alleviate colonic inflammation induced by DSS and its mechanism may be related to ERS of colonic epithelial tissue.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the genetic basis of a Chinese patient featuring global developmental delay. METHODS: Peripheral venous blood samples from the proband and his parents and sister were taken for the extraction of DNA. Target capture and next generation sequencing was carried out to detect genetic variants associated with the disease. Suspected variant was validated by Sanger sequencing. RESULTS: Genetic testing discovered that the proband has carried hemizygous c.150G>T and c.150+1G>T variants of the KDM5C gene which are inherited from his mother. His younger sister also carried the variants. The c.150+1G>A variant was unreported previously, which has altered a splice site and was predicted to be pathogenic by bioinformatics analysis. CONCLUSION The hemizygous c.150+1G>T variant of the KDM5C gene, known to underlie X-linked Claes-Jensen type syndromic mental retardation, probably accounts for the disorder in the patient. Identification of this variant has enriched the variant spectrum of the KDM5C gene.

Objective:To systematically integrate qualitative research on the real experience and management of cancer pain in adult cancer patients, so as to provide reference for improving the management of cancer pain in adult cancer patients and reducing their cancer pain.Methods:Qualitative research literature on the real experience and management of cancer pain in cancer patients was systematically searched in Cochrane Library, PubMed, Web of Science, CINAHL, Embase, ProQuest, Scopus, China Biomedical Database, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wanfang Data, and VIP. The search period was from database establishment to August 2023. The literature was evaluated using the quality evaluation criteria for qualitative research of the Joanna Briggs Institute Evidence-Based Health Care Center. The aggregation Meta-synthesis method was used to integrate and summarize research results.Results:A total of 16 articles were included, and 78 results were extracted to form 11 categories, which were summarized into four integrated results of the cognitive status of adult cancer patients towards cancer pain, the impact of cancer pain on patients, self-management strategies for cancer pain, and medical experiences related to cancer pain.Conclusions:Adult cancer patients face obstacles in alleviating cancer pain, such as lack of awareness of cancer pain, negative impacts, inadequate self-management strategies, and poor medical experience. Patients need to improve their self-management strategies, and the country and medical institutions should provide comprehensive support to enable patients and clinical medical and nursing staff to manage cancer pain.
