The nutrition and food hygienic character of the degreased castor protein in Neimeng autonomous region were studied by chemical analysis and rat experiment. Using casein as reference protein and soy flour as comparable substance, the contents of major nutrients and composition of essential amino acids in the degreased castor cake and its protein efficiency ratio (PER) and other indicators related to nitrogen metabolism in the animal experiment were studied by the recommended method of AOAC. Some harmful substances in the samples were examined quantitatively. The results showed that the protein content, the PER, the true digestibility, the biological value, and NPU of the degreased castor cake were 35.80%, 1.75-1.76, 62.51%, 91.16 and 57.04 respectively. The blood indicators and pathological observation of tested rats were normal. The content of several harmful substances in the product was allowable. The essential amino acid composition of the degreased castor protein was similar to soy protein. So the detoxified degreased castor cake protein could be used in food or feed industry.
2.Drug-drug interaction of direct-acting antivirals in treatment of chronic hepatitis C
Journal of Clinical Hepatology 2018;34(2):229-232
With the successful application of direct-acting antivirals (DAAs) in the treatment of hepatitis C,clinical management of drug -drug interaction (DDI) has become a hot topic in this field.Most DAAs develop DDI with other drugs administered at the same time via cytochrome P450 or transporters in the liver and/or the intestine.At present,European Association for the Study of the Liver has published the recommendations on DDI of DAAs in the treatment of chronic hepatitis C,which covers HIV antiretrovirals,lipid-lowering drugs,cardiovascular drugs,immunosuppressants,and addictive drugs for the central nervous system.When developing the regimens for DAA treatment,clinicians should closely assess and monitor the risk of DDI,in order to reduce or avoid treatment failure or adverse reactions during antiviral therapy.

Thoracentesis is common in daily medical practice. During the operation, it is easy to cause complications such as re-expansion pulmonary edema, pulmonary hypotension, liver and spleen injury, pleural reaction, intercostal artery injury, pneumothorax, and so on. If the operator does not master procedures properly, it is easy to damage the thoracic organs. Therefore, the department of the general practice of the First Hospital of Jiaxing improved the puncture needle device based on thoracic puncture cannula, developed a new type of disposable thoracic puncture cannula, and obtained the National Utility Model Patent of China (patent number: ZL 2019 2 2112955.7). New type of disposable thoracic puncture cannula comprises a flexible puncture cannula, a steel needle, a limit structure, and a second bolt. In the process of puncture, the length of the puncture is limited by the limit structure. If the puncture force is too strong, the limit structure will prevent further penetration of the needle. The device is easy to use, flexible to operate, easy to master, and can reduce the risk of thoracentesis, which is worth of clinical promotion.
7.Impact of treatment compliance in chronic hepatitis B
Chinese Journal of Hepatology 2022;30(11):1266-1269
The incidence rate of chronic hepatitis B remains high in China. Antiviral therapy can significantly reduce the risk of progressive liver disease and hepatocellular carcinoma in patients with chronic hepatitis B. However, all current antiviral treatments can only inhibit HBV replication and not completely eliminate the hepatitis B virus, so antiviral therapy for chronic hepatitis B is probably a long-term or even lifelong treatment. Antiviral therapy compliance is essential for achieving long-term clinical benefits and preventing nucleot(s)ide drugs resistance. Herein, we analyzed the relevant factors of antiviral therapy compliance and their impact on CHB treatment and explored feasible programs that can improve compliance with nucleot(s)ide drug treatment by conducting a literature search using PubMed and Scopus with search terms including hepatitis B, compliance, nucleot(s)ide drugs, antiviral therapy, viral suppression, and drug resistance.

Objective:To investigate the relationship between thyroid autoimmunity and pregnancy outcome in patients with unexplained recurrent abortion.Methods:A retrospective cohort study of 354 patients with normal thyroid function with recurrent abortion of unknown cause admitted to Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hospital, Sun Yat-sen University from January 2015 to June 2022 was used to detect thyroid antibody and thyroid function levels during pregnancy or early pregnancy. They were divided into TAI group ( n=144) and non-TAI group ( n=210) according to whether thyroid autoimmunity (TAI) was complicated or not. Tracking pregnancy outcomes. Results:Compared with the non-TAI group, the TAI group had a higher proportion of pregnancy outcomes resulting in miscarriage [42.4%(61/144) vs 27.1%(57/210), P=0.004]. In patients with unexplained recurrent abortion, TAI significantly increased the risk of spontaneous abortion [ OR(95% CI): 2.13(1.34, 3.41), P=0.001]. Positive TPOAb or TgAb also increased the risk of spontaneous abortion [ OR(95% CI): 2.18(1.37, 3.50), P=0.001; OR(95% CI): 2.33(1.31, 4.13), P=0.004]. TAI, TPOAb and TgAb had no significant interaction with age ( P=0.482, 0.724, 0.740). Conclusions:TAI is positively associated with the risk of spontaneous abortion in patients with unexplained recurrent abortion. TAI may be a potential risk factor for unexplained recurrent abortion, expanding the diagnosis and treatment of unexplained recurrent abortion.
