OBJECTIVE:To observe the clinical efficacy and safety of vitamin C with large dose combined with diphosphate in the treatment of myocardial injury after neonatal asphyxia and the effects on creatine kinase isoenzyme (CK-MB) level. METH-ODS:Totally 76 children with myocardial injury after neonatal asphyxia were randomly divided into control group and observation group. Control group was given routine treatment,including oxygen inhalation,sedation,cardiotonic,Danshen injection and ener-gy mixture,etc. Based on the treatment of control group,the observation group was added diphosphate 100-150 mg/(kg·d),iv infu-sion,qd;and vitamin C 250 mg/(kg·d)adding into 10%glucose injection 20 ml,iv infusion,qd. 10 d was a course. The clinical ef-ficacy,cardiac troponin T(cTnI),CK-MB level and incidence of adverse reactions before and after treatment were observed. RE-SULTS:The total effective rate in observation group was significantly higher than control group,with significant difference(P<0.05). After treatment,the cTnI and CK-MB level in 2 groups were significantly lower than before,and observation group was low-er than control group,with significant differences (P<0.05). There were no adverse reactions in 2 groups during the treatment. CONCLUSIONS:Based on the routine treatment,Vitamin C with large dose combined with diphosphate has good efficacy in the treatment of myocardial injury after neonatal asphyxia and can effectively reduce the CK-MB level,with good safety.

Objective:To investigate the anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects of Rupixiao granules. Methods:Activity of Rupixi-ao granules against xylene-induced ear edema in mice was measured to evaluate the anti-inflammatory effect, while the analgesic effect was evaluated by acetic acid induced writhing test and hot plate test in mice. Results:Compared with the control group, Rupixiao gran-ules groups (1. 0, 2. 0 and 4. 0 g·kg·d-1) could significantly inhibit ear swelling in mice(P<0. 05 or 0. 001), and reduce the acetic acid induced writhing times(P<0. 01 or 0. 001). Rupixiao granules at medium and high dose could significantly increase the pain thresh-old of mice in the hot plate test. Conclusion:Rupixiao granules exhibit significant anti-inflammatory and analgesic activities.

Objective:To compare the differences of children’ s health in different area, and to confirm if the prevalence of respiratory diseases and symptoms among children are closely associated with the air pollution. Methods:A cross-sectional study was conducted in an urban area A and a suburban area B with different levels of air pollution in Beijing. Using a cluster sampling method, we recruited 4 564 chil-dren from 3 primary schools in urban A and 4 primary schools in suburban B. Respiratory symptoms were investigated using an international standardized questionnaire including characteristics of children, living conditions, respiratory diseases and symptoms and situation of parents.

OBJECTIVETo study the in vitro antibacterial activity of meropenem combined with doxycycline, ciprofloxacin, sulbactam or cefoperazone/sulbactam against clinically isolated extensively drug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (XDRAB).

METHODSUsing a checker board synergy design, the minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) of antibiotics against 50 isolates of XDRAB was determined by broth microdilution antifungal susceptibility test. The fractional inhibitory concentration (FIC) index was calculated to determine the combined effect of the antibiotics.

RESULTSMeropenem showed significantly reduced MIC50 and enhanced antimicrobial activities when combined with doxycycline, sulbactam or cefoperazone/sulbactam. The FIC results suggested that the main actions of doxycycline, sulbactam, and cefoperazone/sulbactam were synergistic (38%, 26%, and 10%, respectively) and addictive (62%, 74%, and 90%, respectively) without indifferent or antagonistic effects. The main actions of meropenem combined with ciprofloxacin were additive (56%) and indifference (44%) with synergistic and antagonistic effects.

CONCLUSIONMeropenem combined with doxycycline, sulbactam or cefoperazone/sulbactam shows excellent activity against clinical isolates of XDRAB.

Conclusion:Semiquantitative score of muscle and bone ultrasound can better reflect the degree of knee joint injury, which is positively correlated with WOMAC OA index.We can use the semiquantitative score of muscle and bone ultrasound and WOMAC OA index to predict the condition of patients with knee osteoarthritis.

Vitiligo is an acquired depigmented disease, and neurological factors may play an important role in its pathogenesis. Neurogenic inflammatory factors released by sensory nerves that control the skin can directly or indirectly regulate functions of keratinocytes, melanocytes, Langerhans cells, dermal dendritic cells, mast cells, dermal microvascular endothelial cells and immune cells. This review summarizes roles of several relevant neurogenic inflammatory factors in the occurrence and development of vitiligo, including neuropeptide Y, calcitonin gene-related peptide, catecholamines and nerve growth factor, with a view to providing new ideas for clinical treatment of vitiligo.

With the development of molecular biology research, targeted therapy has become the fourth effective method for the treatment of malignant tumors after surgery, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy. Unlike the traditional chemotherapeutic drugs, molecular targeted drugs possess the advantages of high specificity, definite curative effects, and less adverse effects. CLDN18.2 protein is a transmembrane protein that is highly selective and stably overexpressed during the development of various malignant tumors, especially gastrointestinal tumors, and metastases. A specific antibody against this protein, claudiximab (zolbetuximab/IMAB362), has achieved great success in recent clinical trials. Thus, CLDN18.2 protein is expected to be a safe and effective molecular target for targeted therapy in some malignancies.

ObjectiveTo analyze the occurrence of suspected adverse events following immunization （AEFI） after changing the priority vaccination sites of the adsorbed acellular diphtherior-pertussis-tetanus vaccine （hereinafter referred to as DPT vaccine）， so as to provide scientific basis for mass vaccination. MethodsMonitoring data of AEFI for the DPT vaccine in Wujiang District from September 2020 to August 2022 were collected from China's disease prevention and control information system， and the vaccination information of DPT vaccine in all children's vaccination clinics in Wujiang District during the same period was selected. The incidence of AEFI for the DPT vaccine was analyzed and compared. ResultsThe reported incidence of AEFI was significantly lower in the buttocks than that in other sites （P<0.05）. The reported incidence of AEFI was significantly higher in booster immunization than that in basic immunization （P<0.05）. After inoculation at different sites， the main clinical symptoms of AEFI were local redness and swelling. There were significant differences in the incidence of local redness and swelling， local induration， pruritus and other symptoms （lethargy， abnormal crying， etc.） （P<0.05）. There were significant differences in the severity of local redness and swelling in different sites （P<0.05）. The degree of redness and swelling in the anterolateral thigh was lower than that in other sites （P<0.05）. The local strong reaction of swelling （>5.0 cm） in the deltoid muscle of the upper arm was significantly higher than that in the buttocks （P<0.05）. ConclusionThe DPT vaccine is safe in different parts of the body and is worth popularizing.

Objective:To investigate the clinical features and associated influencing factors of cognitive impairment in middle-aged and elderly Chinese adult patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis (HD).Methods:A cross-sectional study was conducted among HD patients from 11 centers in Beijing city from April 2017 to June 2017. A neuropsychological battery covering domains of attention/processing speed, executive function, memory, language, and visuospatial function was applied in cognitive function assessment. Patients were classified as normal cognitive function group and cognitive impairment group according to the fifth version of the diagnostic and statistical manual of mental disorders criteria (DSM-V). Multivariate binary logistic regression was used to analyze the independent influencing factors of cognitive impairment. Results:A total of 613 HD patients were included in the study, and the prevalence of cognitive impairment was 80.91% (496/613). Attention impairment (81.05%) and memory impairment (63.51%) were the most common impaired domains, and 79.23% was concomitant impairment across two or more cognitive domains among those with cognitive impairment. Compared with the patients in the normal cognitive function group, the patients in the cognitive impairment group had senior age, longer dialysis vintage, higher proportion of diabetes, hypertension, and stroke, higher level of serum intact parathyroid hormone (iPTH), lower education level, and lower urea clearance index (Kt/V) (all P<0.05). Factors were independently associated with cognitive impairment including increasing age ( OR=1.110, 95% CI 1.072-1.150, P<0.001), education time>12 years (with education time<6 years as reference, OR=0.323, 95% CI 0.115-0.909, P=0.032), history of diabetes ( OR=2.151, 95% CI 1.272-3.636, P=0.004), history of stroke ( OR=2.546, 95% CI 1.244-5.210, P=0.011), increased dialysis vintage ( OR=1.016, 95% CI 1.010-1.022, P<0.001), reduced Kt/V( OR=0.008, 95% CI 0.002-0.035, P<0.001), and increased iPTH level ( OR=1.002, 95% CI 1.002-1.003, P=0.012). Conclusions:The prevalence of cognitive impairment in middle-aged and elderly adult Chinese patients undergoing HD is high. Memory and attention are the most commonly impaired domains. Increasing age, low education level, history of diabetes and stroke, increased dialysis vintage, reduced Kt/V and increased serum iPTH are the independent influencing factors associated with cognitive impairment.
