OBJECTIVE:To review and discuss the types of diseases and application areas such as tumor modeling that organoids can be applied to,as well as their regulatory status and challenges. METHODS:With"organoid,stem cell,disease model,3D printing technology,medical field"as Chinese and English search terms,we searched PubMed,Elsevier,WanFang,and CNKI databases to summarize and analyze organoid products at home and abroad,summarize the application of organoid technology in the medical field,and prospect the future development of organoid products in the medical field. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Organoids can break the limitations of traditional cell and animal models,avoid the ethical problems existing in clinical research,and have a high similarity to the source organ,a more similar performance to the physiology and pathology of human systems,and genetic stability,which has great advantages in current research.Organoids have been applied in the following fields:efficacy evaluation studies(preclinical models),including intestinal organoids,kidney organoids,liver organoids,gallbladder organoids,lung organoids,brain organoids,heart organoids,skin organoids,and reproductive system organoids;research on infectious diseases;cancer research and precision therapy;regenerative medicine;immune organoids.Although the United States,the European Union and China do not have perfect regulatory provisions,they are trying to promote the formulation of organoid regulatory laws and regulations.In China,although no organoid medical device products have been listed for the time being,its related regenerative medicine products have made breakthroughs.

OBJECTIVE To establish management index system for rational drug use of key monitoring drugs， and provide reference for the management of key monitoring drugs in the hospitals. METHODS First， the management index system for rational drug use of key monitoring drugs was drafted by collecting the evidence from related medical literature. Next， using a modified Delphi method， twenty experienced experts from the fields of pharmacy， medical practice， healthcare insurance， and finance were selected to participate in two rounds of questionnaire consultations. Based on the expert enthusiasm coefficient， authority coefficient， degree of opinion concentration， and degree of coordination， the final indicators were determined to establish a management index system for rational drug use of key monitored drugs in medical institutions. RESULTS The expert enthusiasm coefficients reached 100% in both rounds of consultation. In first-level， second-level and third-level indicators， the authority coefficients of experts were 0.89， 0.86 and 0.87， and coordination coefficients of the experts in importance score were 0.300 （P＜ 0.05）， 0.125 （P＜0.05） and 0.139 （P＜0.05）， respectively. The average score for the importance of all indicators reached over 3.5， in which the full score ratio ranged from 35% to 100%. Except that the variation coefficient of a third-level indicator “number of specifications purchased for key monitored drugs” was 0.26， the variation coefficients of rest indicators were less than or equal to 0.25. Based on the results of expert consultation， final version of the management index system established in this study， including two first-level indicators （drug procurement and use， and rational drug use）， five second-level indicators （such as the accessibility， cost-effectiveness） and twenty third-level indicators （such as the number of specifications purchased for key monitored drugs， the increase in the cost of key monitored drugs）. CONCLUSIONS The management index system established in this study possesses high reliability and strong operability， and may provide a reference for the management of key monitoring drugs in the hospitals.

ObjectiveTo investigate the protective effects and mechanisms of Zhenzhu Tiaozhi capsules on the kidneys in the mouse model of diabetic kidney disease. MethodsThirty male C57BL/6J mice were selected as experimental objects. The model of diabetic kidney disease was induced by intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin （STZ） at 40 mg·kg^-1 for 5 days combined with a high-fat diet （HFD）. Fasting blood glucose （FBG） ≥ 11.1 mmol·L^-1， increased urine volume， and continuous appearance of proteinuria indicated successful modeling. Mice were grouped as follows： Blank， model， low- and high-dose （0.98 and 1.96 g·kg^-1， respectively） Zhenzhu Tiaozhi capsules， and losartan potassium （30 mg·kg^-1）， with six mice in each group. After 12 weeks of continuous gavage， urine and kidney specimens were collected， and the 24-h urinary protein and the urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio （UACR） in mice were measured. Hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining， periodic acid-Schiff （PAS） staining， and Masson staining were performed for observation of histopathological changes in kidneys. Immunofluorescence assay was employed to detect the positive expression of the podocyte marker protein nephrin. Oil red O staining was used to detect renal lipid deposition. Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay was employed to measure the levels of interleukin-1β （IL-1β）， interleukin-6 （IL-6）， and tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α） in the renal tissue. Western blot was employed to determine the expression levels of sterol regulatory element-binding protein cleavage-activating protein （SCAP）， sterol regulatory element-binding protein-1c （SREBP-1c）， and NOD-like receptor protein 3 （NLRP3） in the renal tissue. ResultsCompared with the blank group， the model group showed increases in 24-h urinary protein and UACR （P<0.05）， glomeruli exhibiting capsule adhesion， collagen fiber deposition， mesangial proliferation， and inflammatory cell infiltration， elevated levels of IL-1β， IL-6， and TNF-α （P<0.05）， reduced positive expression of nephrin （P<0.05）， increased lipid deposition （P<0.05）， and up-regulated expression of SCAP， SREBP-1c， and NLRP3 （P<0.05） in the renal tissue. Compared with the model group， the treatment with losartan potassium or high-dose Zhenzhu Tiaozhi capsules for 12 weeks decreased 24-h urinary protein and UACR （P<0.05）， and the treatment with low-dose Zhenzhu Tiaozhi capsules for 12 weeks reduced the 24-h urinary protein （P<0.05）. Pathological staining results revealed that kidney damage in mice from all treatment groups was alleviated， with reduced inflammatory infiltration， collagen fiber deposition， and mesangial proliferation， and increased positive expression of nephrin in the renal tissue （P<0.05）. In addition， all the treatment groups showed reduced lipid droplets （P<0.05）， lowered levels of IL-1β， IL-6， and TNF-α （P<0.05）， and down-regulated expression of SCAP， SREBP-1c， and NLRP3 （P<0.05） in the renal tissue. ConclusionZhenzhu Tiaozhi capsules can ameliorate kidney damage in the mouse model of diabetic kidney disease by inhibiting the activation of the SCAP-SREBP-1c/NLRP3 signaling pathway， which reduces renal lipid deposition and inflammation.

Objective:To analyze the clinical characteristics of eosinophilic lung diseases(ELD) in children to enhance pediatricians′ understanding of ELD.Methods:In this retrospective cross-sectional study, a total of 149 children with ELD were recruited from Beijing Children′s Hospital, Capital Medical University between April 1, 2007 and March 31, 2022.Chi-square test, Fisher′s exact test, Mann-Whitney U test and Kruskal-Wallis test were used to analyze data and conclude clinical characteristics.Spearman correlation was used to analyze the correlation between eosinophils in peripheral blood and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid.Chi-square test and Kappa consistency test were used to compare the differences and consistency in diagnostic results between bronchoalveolar lavage fluid or lung biopsy and eosinophil elevation with chest imaging abnormalities. Results:(1)The isolated lung involvement was mostly caused by allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis(9 patients), and other system involvement by idiopathic hypereosinophilic syndrome(89 patients).(2)The main respiratory manifestations included coughing(90 cases, 60.4%) and expectoration(41 cases, 27.5%), while 23.5%(35 cases) of patients had no respiratory symptoms; 50.3% had digestive system involvement, and 40.9% had skin involvement.These were the two most commonly affected organs.(3)Spearman correlation was performed between eosinophils in peripheral blood and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid( r=0.3, P<0.05).Chi-square test was performed to compare ELD diagnosed by bronchoalveolar lavage fluid or lung biopsy with peripheral blood eosinophilia accompanied by abnormal chest imaging( P<0.05).Kappa consistency test(Kappa<0.2) showed poor consistency between the two diagnostic methods. Conclusions:ELD are present in children, and multiple etiologies may be pathogenic.Among children with ELD, the isolated lung involvement is mainly caused by allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis.The digestive system and skin are the most commonly affected organs, except for lungs.The correlation between eosinophil levels in peripheral blood and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid is poor.

Objective:To explore the characteristics, prevention and treatment strategies of lower urinary tract injury in transvaginal reconstructive pelvic surgery (vRPS).Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on 24 patients who suffered lower urinary tract injuries occuring in vRPS from January 2005 to June 2021, among which 4 cases were referred to our hospital from other hospitals.Results:(1) In our hospital, 1 952 patients underwent vRPS for anterior and (or) middle pelvic organ prolapse during that study period, with a 1.0% (20/1 952) incidence of lower urinary tract injuries occurring in 20 cases. (2) Ureteral injuries were observed in 14 cases who underwent transvaginal high uterosacral ligament suspension (1.4%, 14/966). The symptoms were relieved after the removal of sutures. (3) Bladder injuries occurred in 6 cases in our hospital, with 4 cases (0.7%, 4/576) in anterior transvaginal mesh surgery (aTVM), one (0.4%, 1/260) in colpocleisis, and one (0.7%, 1/150) in apical suspension for fornix prolapse. An additional 4 cases of bladder injury were referred to our hospital after aTVM. Among the 8 cases of bladder injury during aTVM, 2 cases were intraoperative incidents. Cystoscopy confirmed that the superficial branch or puncture rod of anterior vaginal mesh had penetrated into the bladder. Re-puncturing and placement of the mesh were successfully performed. No abnormalities were observed during a follow-up period of 4-5 years. Postoperative bladder injuries were identified in 6 cases, characterized by mesh erosion into the bladder and formation of calculi. These injuries were confirmed between 6 months to 2 years after vRPS. The exposed mesh and calculi in the bladder were removed through laparotomy or cystoscopy, followed up for 2-12 years. One case experienced slight re-erosion of mesh to the bladder.Conclusions:Lower urinary tract injuries are difficult to avoid in vRPS, particularly in transvaginal high uterosacral ligament suspension and aTVM. However, the incidence is low. Lower urinary tract injuries during vRPS could be easily detected and managed intraoperatively because of the use of cystoscopy. As long-term postoperative complications, erosion of transvaginal mesh to lower urinary tract postoperatively could be treated correctly, seldom with severe sequelae.
