The usage of pesticides can enhance the production of crops,but their overuses may be hazardous to both people health and the environment.Thus,it is of great significance to develop effective methods to detect pesticides.Metal nanoclusters(MNCs)have become increasingly popular in analytical sensing areas because of their miniscule size,high stability,ease of manufacturing and good biocompatibility.They have exhibited great potential in the field of pesticides detection.In this paper,the detection methods of pesticides by using MNCs and their development in detection of organophosphorus pesticides,organic nitrogen pesticides,organochlorine pesticides and other types of pesticides were reviewed.Finally,the development prospects were discussed.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of oral anisodine hydrobromide tablets in the treatment of nonarteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (NAION).Methods:A multicenter nonrandomized controlled trial was conducted.A total of 282 acute NAION patients (282 eyes) were recruited from 16 hospitals in China from July 2020 to May 2021.Patients were divided into two groups according to treatment methods, which were control group (124 cases, 124 eyes) receiving regular treatment including citicoline sodium plus Ginkgo biloba leaf liquid extract or Ginkgo biloba leaf extract tablets plus mecobalamin, and experimental group (158 cases, 158 eyes) receiving treatment in control group plus oral anisodine hydrobromide tablets 1 mg, twice daily for 2 to 3 months.Best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), visual field index (VFI), peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer (pRNFL) and radial peripapillary capillary vessel density (RPC) were assessed at 1, 2, 3, and 6 months after enrollment using the standard decimal visual acuity chart, 750i Humphery visual field analyzer, Cirrus HD-OCT 4000/Cirrus HD-OCT 5000, RTVue-XR optical coherence tomography respectively.The primary outcomes were BCVA and VFI, and the secondary outcomes were pRNFL, RPC, and the side effects during the follow-up.The study adhered to the Declaration of Helsinki.All patients were fully informed about the treatment and purpose of this study and voluntarily signed the informed consent form.The study protocol was approved by Chinese PLA General Hospital (No.S2020-021-01). Results:In all, 242 patients (242 eyes) completed the follow-up of BCVA, and 98 patients (98 eyes) completed the VFI follow-up.In terms of visual function, BCVA and VFI improved significantly over time in the two groups, and BCVA and VFI were better in experimental group than in control group at various follow-up time points (all at P<0.05). In terms of structure, pRNFL gradually decreased in both groups with the extension of treatment, and pRNFL was significanthy thinner in experimental group than in control group at various follow-up time points (all at P<0.05). There was no significant difference in RPC between the two groups at the last follow-up ( P>0.05). There were two cases with side effects and one case was discontinued due to side effects 25 days after enrollment. Conclusions:Oral anisodine hydrobromide can improve visual acuity and visual field in NAION and accelerate the regression of optic disc edema, with good safety.

China Association of Chinese Medicine organized specialists in andrology of Chinese and western medicine to explore the population and treatment stage of benign prostatic hyperplasia （BPH） with Chinese medicine as the leading therapy. Chinese medicine has great advantages in the treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia. However， it is necessary to make clear the stage when Chinese medicine or modern medical treatment can be used as the leading therapy， and the conditions under which Chinese and western medicine can be combined to achieve the best treatment efficacy. The specialists agreed Chinese medicine as the leading therapy for the treatment of BPH in the following populations or conditions： the elderly and weak patients with basic diseases， BPH symptoms， and cannot tolerate anesthesia and surgery， the patients with BPH symptoms and cannot tolerate the adverse reactions or the possible adverse reactions of western medicine； the patients with mild ［international prostatic symptom score （IPSS） ≤ 7］ or moderate lower urinary tract symptoms （IPSS ≥ 8） and the quality of life not significantly affected， the patients with bladder detrusor hypofunction， bladder dysfunction and cannot be treated surgically， or with incomplete bladder emptying after surgical treatment； the BPH patients with prostatitis as the main clinical manifestation， the patients with non-acute complications after operation. BPH is one of the dominant diseases in urology and andrology of Chinese medicine， and the symptoms， complications， and prognosis of BPH patients need to be fully considered during the clinical treatment. When Chinese medicine is taken as the leading therapy， it is essential to regularly review the serum level of prostate-specific antigen to exclude the possibility of prostate cancer， and apply Chinese medicine for full treatment course and cycle. At the same time， Chinese and western medicine can be combined to achieve the most effective， convenient， economical， and satisfactory treatment， which can carry forward the advantages of Chinese medicine in treating this disease.

Objective:To investigate the factors affecting phenotypes in the patients of methylmalonic acidemia combined with homocysteinemia cblC type with MMACHC c. 609G>A homologous variant. Methods:A retrospective study on the clinical manifestations, complications, treatment, and outcome in 164patients of cblC type with MMACHC c. 609G>A homologous variant was conducted.The patients were diagnosed by biochemical and genetic analysisfrom January 1998 to December 2020. Results:Among the 164 patients, 2 cases were prenatally diagnosed and began treatment after birth. They are 3 and 12 years old with normal physical and mental development. Twenty-one cases were diagnosed by newborn screening. Among them, 15 cases had with normal development. They were treated fromthe age of two weeks at the asymptomatic period. Six cases began treatment aged 1 to 3 months after onset. Their development was delayed. One hundred and forty-one cases were clinically diagnosed. Their onset age ranges from a few minutes after birth to 6 years old. 110 cases had early-onset (78.0%). 31 cases had late-onset (22.0%). Five of them died. 24 patients lost to follow-up. Of the 141 clinically diagnosed patients, 130 (92.2%) with psychomotor retardation, 69 (48.9%) with epilepsy, 39 (27.7%) with anemia, 30 (21.3%) had visual impairment, 27 (19.1%) had hydrocephalus, 26 (18.4%) had feeding difficulties, 7 (5.0%) with liver damage, and 5 (3.5%) with metabolic syndrome. The frequency of hydrocephalus and seizures was significantly higher in the early-onset group. The urinary methylmalonic acid increased significantly in the patients with epilepsy. During the long-term follow-up, the level of plasma total homocysteine in the seizure-uncontrolled group was significantly higher than that in the seizure-controlled group, the difference had a statistical significance ( P<0.05). Conclusion:Most of the patients with MMACHC c. 609G>A homozygous variant had early-onset disease, with a high mortality and disability rate. If not treated in time, it will lead to neurological damage, resulting in epilepsy, mental retardation, hydrocephalus, and multiple organ damage. Pre-symptomatic diagnosis and treatment are crucial to prevent irreversible neurological damage. Neonatal screening and prenatal diagnosis are important to improve the outcome of the patients.

Objective:To analyze the clinical features, genetic characteristics, treatment and follow-up results of patients with hydrocephalus caused by methylmalonic acidemia combined with homocysteinuria, and to discuss the optimal strategies for assessing and treating such patients.Methods:From January 1998 to December 2020, 76 patients with hydrocephalus due to methylmalonic acidemia combined with homocysteinuria in the Department of Pediatrics in 11 hospitals including Peking University First Hospital were diagnosed by biochemical, genetic analysis and brain imaging examination. The patients were divided into operation-group and non-operation-group according to whether they underwent ventriculoperitoneal shunt. The clinical features, laboratory examinations, genotype, and follow-up data were retrospectively analyzed. Data were compared between the two groups using rank sum test, and categorical data were compared using χ 2 test. Results:Among the 76 patients (51 male, 25 female), 5 were detected by newborn screening, while 71 were diagnosed after clinical onset, 68 cases (96%) had early-onset, 3 cases (4%) had late-onset. The most common clinical manifestations of 74 cases with complete data were psychomotor retardation in 74 cases (100%), visual impairment in 74 cases (100%), epilepsy in 44 cases (59%), anemia in 31 cases (42%), hypotonia or hypertonia in 21 cases (28%), feeding difficulties in 19 cases (26%) and disturbance of consciousness in 17 cases (23%). Genetic analysis was performed in 76 cases, all of whom had MMACHC gene variations, including 30 homozygous variations of MMACHC c.609G>A. The most common variations were c.609G>A (94, 62.7%), followed by c.658_660del (18, 12.0%), c.567dupT (9, 6.0%) and c.217C>T (8, 5.3%). Therapy including cobalamin intramuscular injection, L-carnitine and betaine were initiated immediately after diagnosis. A ventriculoperitoneal shunt operation was performed in 41 cases (operation group), and 31 patients improved after metabolic intervention (non-operation group). There was no significant difference in the age of onset, the age of diagnosis, the blood total homocysteine, methionine, and urinary methylmalonic acid concentration between the two groups (all P>0.05). The symptoms of psychomotor development, epilepsy, and visual impairments improved gradually after a long-term follow-up in the operation group. Conclusions:Hydrocephalus is a severe complication of methylmalonic acidemia combined with homocysteinuria. The most common clinical manifestations are psychomotor retardation, visual impairment, and epilepsy. It usually occurs in early-onset patients. Early diagnosis and etiological treatment are very important. Hydrocephalus may improve after metabolic intervention in some patients. For patients with severe ventricular dilatation, prompt surgical intervention can improve the prognosis.

Objective: To establish comprehensive laboratory reference intervals for Chinese children. Methods: This was a cross-sectional multicenter study. From June 2013 to December 2014, eligible healthy children aged from 6-month to 17-year were enrolled from 20 medical centers with informed consent. They were assessed by physical examination, questionnaire survey and abdominal ultrasound for eligibility. Fasting blood samples were collected and delivered to central laboratory. Measurements of 15 clinical laboratory parameters were performed, including estradiol (E2), testosterone(T), luteinizing hormone(LH), follicle-stimulating hormone(FSH), alanine transaminase(ALT), serum creatinine(Scr), cystatin C, immunoglobulin A(IgA), immunoglobulin G(IgG), immunoglobulin M(IgM), complement (C3, C4), alkaline phosphatase(ALP), uric acid(UA) and creatine kinase(CK). Reference intervals were established according to central 95% confidence intervals for reference population, stratified by age and sex. Results: In total, 2 259 children were enrolled. Finally, 1 648 children were eligible for this study, including 830 boys and 818 girls, at a mean age of 7.4 years. Age- and sex- specific reference intervals have been established for the parameters. Reference intervals of sex hormones increased gradually with age. Concentrations of ALT, cystatin C, ALP and CK were higher in children under 2 years old. Serum levels of sex hormones, creatinine, immunoglobin, CK, ALP and urea increased rapidly in adolescence, with significant sex difference. In addition, reference intervals were variable depending on assay methods. Concentrations of ALT detected by reagents with pyridoxal 5'-phosphate(PLP) were higher than those detected by reagents without PLP. Compared with enzymatic method, Jaffe assay always got higher results of serum creatinine, especially in children younger than 9 years old. Conclusion This study established age- and sex- specific reference intervals, for 15 clinical laboratory parameters based on defined healthy children.

Objective To summarize the clinical characteristics of recipients of renal transplantation who used tacrolimus extended-release capsules,to optimize the postoperative immunosuppressive regimen,and provide reference for the therapeutic administration of imnmunosuppressive agents after renal transplantation.Methods 156 patients who had renal transplant in our center were divided into three groups according to the time of the change of the extended-release tacrolimus capsules,and the blood glucose and blood lipids of each group were analyzed.Results The longer the postoperative duration was,the higher proportion of new-onset diabetes cases (P =0.025).There was no significant difference among the three groups of immune induction regimens.The immnunosuppressive regimen was changed from MMF (68.8％ in G3 group) to MPA (72％ in G1 group).With the prolongation of postoperative time,the dosage of tacrolimus decreased gradually.The mean tacrolimus concentration in the 3 groups was significantly different (P＜0.001) as time went by.There was no significant change in the average daily dosage before and after the change.The trough value before and after the change in the first two groups was significantly different (P＜0.001).Conclusion The extended-release tacrolimus capsules could be used in different stages after renal transplantation.After the conversion of the extended-release tacrolimus capsules,the dosage of adjuvant is reduced,and blood concentration and creatinine level are more stablem which is a more optimized immunosuppressive regimen.

Objective To observe the clinical effects of fresh amniotic membrane transplantation combined soft corneal contact lens and immunomodulatory therapy on epithelial herpes simplex keratitis (HSK),Methods Together 56 participants with recrudesced epithelial type HSK were incorporated from January of 2012 to January of 2014,and randomly divided into control group and treatment group according to random number table.The treatment group was performed complete removal of corneal lesions with microscope,and then the whole cornea was covered with double fresh amniotic membrane;after the whole limbus was fixed with continuous suturing,the soft contact lenses were worn at the end of the operation.After the operation,Chinese formula,including Yupingfeng particles,ganciclovir ophthalmic gel and oral valacyclovir hydrochloride tablets,was administrated.The control group was treated only with ganciclovir ophthalmic gel and oral valaciclovir hydrochloride tablets,Results In control group,15 patients (53.6％) were cured,6 (21.4％) were markedly improved,2 (7.1％) were effective,5 (17.9％) was invalid,and the overall effective rate was 82.1％,but 6 patients (21.4％) were recrudesced;while in the treatment group,22 patients (78.6％)were cured,6 (21.4％) were markedly improved,and the total effective rate was 100.0％,but 3 patients were recurred.Moreover,the visual acuity were improved about 0.43 visual lines in the control group,and about 2.14 lines in treatment group.Therefore,the curative rate,effective rate and visual improvement of the treatment group was significantly better than those of the control group (all P ＜ 0.05),but the recurrence rate was lower than that of the control group (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion The comprehensive treatment including fresh anniotic membrane transplantation combined corneal contact lens with Chinese formula were effective for quickly and effectively controlling inflammation,promoting ulcer repair and shortening the course of disease as well as reducing the recurrence.

Objective To explore the indications of simultaneous pancreas-kidney (SPK) transplantation for type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) combined with end-stage renal disease by comparing the outcome of patients with type 1 and type 2 DM combined with end-stage renal disease after renal transplantation.Methods 109 patients accepting SPK from January 2008 to July 2016 in our center were divided into two groups according to the types of DM:T1DM (n =36),and T2DM (n =73).The basic characteristics of recipients,outcome,and pancreas and kidney functions after operation were compared between two groups.Results There was no significant difference in 5-year survival rate and surgical complications between two groups although recipients of T2DM group were older and had higher BMI than T1DM group.But rejection rate was higher in T1DM group.Conclusion SPK for T2DM recipients will not increase the surgical risk and can get good long-term outcome.
