Objective To explore the expressions and distributions of glial cell line -derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF)and itstyrosine kinase receptor RET in the terminal rectums of fetal rats with congenital anorectal malfor-mations (ARM)at different gestationalage,and to explore their effects on the enteric nervous system in the terminal rectum of ARMfetal rats.Methods Thirty -five SD pregnancy rats were divided into a saline group (n =1 0)and an ethylenethiourea experiment group (n =25)by simple randomized study.The fetal rats were removed from the pregnant rats at the gestational 1 6 d,1 8 d and 20 d.The fetal rats were divided into the saline control group,the ethylenethiourea control group (fetal rats without ARM)and the ethylenethiourea malformation group (ARM fetal rats)by the naked eye and dissecting microscope.HE staining was used to observe the morphology and the intestinal ganglion cells in the terminal rectum were counted.The immunohistochemical staining and Western blot methods were used to observe the distributions of GDNF and RET in the rectum at the gestational 1 6 d,1 8 d and 20 d.The quantitative real -time poly-merase chain reaction (qRT -PCR)was used to detect the expression of GDNF mRNA in the fetal rats in the terminal rectum at the gestational 1 6 d,1 8 d and 20 d.Results HE staining:the development of anorectal terminal in 3 groups of fetal rats was unclear at the gestational 1 6 d.A small amount of scattered nerve plexuses were observed in the muscu-lar layer.The nuclei were small and sparse.The axons and cytoplasms were less.The serosal layer,muscular layer,sub-mucosa,mucosal layer and glands in the terminal rectum were gradually clear in the saline control group and the ethyle-nethiourea control group at the gestational 1 8 d and 20 d.The intermuscular submucosal nerve plexuses increased gra-dually (1 1 .400 ±3.1 34 and 1 1 .200 ±3.425 at the gestational 1 8 d;66.1 00 ±4.954 and 67.600 ±5.481 at the gesta-tional 20 d).While,the layer was unclear in the ethylenethiourea malformation group and the nerve plexus was less (7.800 ±1 .989 at the gestational 1 8 d,and 25.200 ±3.048 at the gestational 20 d),and the difference was statistical-ly significant compared with 2 control groups (F =7.591 ,271 .833,all P <0.05).Immunohistochemistry satning:the expressions of GDNF and RET in all layers of the intestinal wall in the 3 groups of fetal rats were unclear at the gesta-tional 1 6 d and only a few positive cells were observed.The GDNF and RET were expressed in the mucosal layer and submucosa of the terminal rectum as well as intermuscular nerve plexus in the saline control group and the ethylene-thioured control group at the gestational 1 8 d and 20 d.With the continuous development of the embryo,their expression intensities were gradually increased.The expressions of GDNF and RET positive cells were decreased gradually in the ethylenethiourea malformation group.The difference was significant statistically compared with 2 control groups (all P <0.05).qRT -PCR:the expressions of GDNF mRNA showed no statistical difference among 3 groups at the gestational 1 6 d (P >0.05);the expressions of GDNF and RET protein were 1 03.624 ±27.533 and 1 05.1 84 ±1 9.634 at the ges-tational 1 8 d;1 51 .496 ±33.622 and 1 50.738 ±21 .423 at the gestational 20 d in 2 control groups.Compared with the ethylenethiourea malformation group (79.1 69 ±1 1 .697 at the gestational 1 8 d;94.873 ±1 1 .309 at the gestational 20 d),and the difference were statistically significant (all P <0.05).Conclusions The expressions of GDNF and its tyrosine kinase receptor RET had a certain temporal correlation in the terminal rectum of normal fetal rats at different gestational ages and ARM.Moreover,the abnormal expressions of GDNF and its tyrosine kinase receptor RET in the dis-tal rectum of ARMfetal rats can affect the development of enteric nervous system.

Background/Aims:
Acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF) is a catastrophic illness. Few studies investigated the prognostic value of vitamin D-binding protein (VDBP) for hepatitis B virus (HBV)-related ACLF (HBV-ACLF) resulted in conflicting results.
Methods:
Two prospective HBV-ACLF cohorts (n=287 and n=119) were enrolled to assess and validate the prognostic performance of VDBP.
Results:
VDBP levels in the non-survivors were significantly lower than in the survivors (P<0.001). Multivariate Cox regression demonstrated that VDBP was an independent prognostic factor for HBV-ACLF. The VDBP level at admission gradually decreased as the number of failed organs increased (P<0.001), and it was closely related to coagulation failure. The areas under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUCs) of the Child-Pugh-VDBP and chronic liver failuresequential organ failure assessment (CLIF–SOFA)-VDBP scores were significantly higher than those of Child-Pugh (P<0.001) and CLIF-SOFA (P=0.0013). The AUCs of model for end-stage liver disease (MELD)-VDBP were significantly higher than those of MELD (P= 0.0384) only in the case of cirrhotic HBV-ACLF patients. Similar results were validated using an external multicenter HBV-ACLF cohort. By longitudinal observation, the VDBP levels gradually increased in survivors (P=0.026) and gradually decreased in non-survivors (P<0.001). Additionally, the VDBP levels were found to be significantly decreased in the deterioration group (P=0.012) and tended to be decreased in the fluctuation group (P=0.055). In contrast, they showed a significant increase in the improvement group (P=0.036).
Conclusions
The VDBP was a promising prognostic biomarker for HBV-ACLF. Sequential measurement of circulating VDBP shows value for the monitoring of ACLF progression.

Objective:To explore the significance of triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-2 (TREM-2) prognostic evaluation so as to provide novel biological markers in clinical practice for patients with hepatitis B virus-related acute-on-chronic liver failure ( HBV-ACLF).Methods:The research subjects of this study were divided into an experimental group and a control group. Fifty HBV-ACLF cases admitted to the Department of Infectious Diseases of the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University from January 1, 2019 to December 31, 2019 were selected as the experimental group. Patients were divided into survival and death groups according to the actual prognosis at discharge (self-discharge and dead patients were considered death groups, and all enrolled patients were hospitalized for more than 28 days). Twenty-five healthy subjects were chosen as the control group. Peripheral venous blood was collected from the experimental group and the control group. Plasma and peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) were isolated. The concentrations of TREM-2, interleukin (IL)-6, and IL-8 were detected in the plasma. TREM-2 mRNA expression was detected in PBMC. A single blood sample was collected from the control group, whereas five blood samples were dynamically collected from the experimental group on the day of admittance and at 7, 14, 21, and 28 days after treatment commenced. Simultaneously, upon admission, the relevant clinical indicators of HBV-ACLF patients were monitored, including the liver function test: alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase, total bilirubin, albumin, coagulation function test: international normalized ratio, prothrombin time, and other indicators. Measurement data were expressed as mean±standard deviation (x±s). Count data were compared and analyzed using the χ 2 test. The intra-group factor mean was compared using a repeated measures ANOVA. The means were analyzed by t-tests between the two groups. Bivariate correlation analysis was used to analyze the correlation between the two variables. The value of TREM-2 as a diagnostic marker was analyzed using the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. Results:The mRNA expression of TREM-2 in the PBMC of HBV-ACLF patients showed a gradually increasing trend at various time points and was significantly higher in the survival group than that of the control group at 28 days ( P < 0.01), while the death group showed a gradually weakening trend at various time points and was significantly lower than the control group at 28 days ( P < 0.01). (1) The levels of TREM-2 in the plasma of HBV-ACLF patients generally showed a gradually increasing trend at various time points in the survival group. The levels on the day of admission and 7, 14, 21, and 28 days after the initiation of treatment were (1.49±0.85), (1.62±0.58), (1.95±0.69), (2.33±0.71), and (2.00±0.67) ng/ml, respectively. The expression of TREM-2 in the death group showed a gradually weakening trend at various time points. The levels on the day of admission and 7, 14, 21, and 28 days after initiation of treatment were (1.40±0.73), (1.59±0.79), (1.56±0.80), (1.05±0.49), and (0.81±0.21) ng/ml, respectively. The survival group's various detection time points were higher than those of the death group, and the difference was statistically significant. The plasma level of TREM-2 in the healthy control group was (1.25±0.35) ng/ml. (2) The concentrations of IL-6 and IL-8 in the plasma of HBV-ACLF patients showed a gradually decreasing trend at various time points in the survival group. The levels on the day of admission and 7, 14, 21, and 28 days after initiation of treatment were (46.70±26.31), (33.98±20.28), (19.07±10.24), (14.76±7.84), (9.12±7.65) and (108.29±47.07), (93.85±26.53), (79.27±34.63), (56.72 ±18.30), (37.81±13.88) pg/ml, respectively. However, its concentration in the death group fluctuated within a relatively high range. The levels on the day of admission and 7, 14, 21, and 28 days after the initiation of treatment were (41.94±24.19), (36.99±19.78), (34.30±20.62), (34.14±14.52), (36.64±23.61) and (104.65±50.16), (112.98±45.03), (118.43±45.00), (111.67±40.44), (109.55±27.54) pg/ml, respectively. (3) Bivariate correlation analysis results indicated that the plasma TREM-2 content was negatively correlated with the plasma levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-6 and IL-8 ( r = -0.224, P = 0.025; r = - 0.223, P = 0.026). ROC curve analysis showed that the mRNA levels of TREM-2 in PBMCs at various time points for prognostic evaluation of HBV-ACLF patients were 1d=0.667, 7d=0.757, 14d=0.979, 21d=0.986, and 28d= 0.993. The areas under the ROC curve of the TREM-2 content in the plasma at various time points were 1d=0.522, 7d=0.571, 14d=0.658, 21d=0.927, and 28d=0.994. Conclusion:TREM-2 mRNA expression in PBMC and TREM-2 content in plasma have a significant relationship to the prognosis of HBV-ACLF patients and may inhibit the liver inflammatory response by regulating the secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-6 and IL-8. Dynamic monitoring of TREM-2 expression in peripheral blood is favorable for evaluating the prognostic condition of HBV-ACLF patients.

Objective:To evaluate the safety and efficacy of enhanced recovery after surgery(ERAS) in the perioperative period of congenital choledochal cysts in children.Methods:This is a multicenter prospective randomized controlled study. The clinical data of 273 pediatric congenital choledochal cysts(CCC) patients who underwent surgery at 14 medical centers with complete follow-up data were collected through the medical data analysis platform. Among them, 123 cases in ERAS group were managed perioperatively in strict accordance with ERAS mode, and 150 cases in conventional group were managed according to traditional mode. The length of hospital stay,time to first farting, time to complete feeding, the incidence of complications, cost and readmission rate within 30 days,stress indexes and liver function were compared between the two groups.Results:Compared with the conventional group, median time to start farting (2.0 d vs. 3.0 d, P<0.001), median time to complete feeding (5.0 d vs. 7.0 d, P<0.001), median postoperative hospitalization time (6.0 d vs. 9.0 d, P<0.001),the median total length of stay(13.0 d vs. 15.0 d, P<0.001) were shorter,the median hospitalization cost (37,000 yuan vs.43,000 yuan P<0.001) was lower, and stress indexes recovered quickly. The incidence of postoperative hospital stay and readimission rate within 30 d were not statistically different between the two groups. Conclusion:It is safe and feasible to implement ERAS for children with CCC in the perioperative period, which can reduce stress response, speed up recovery,and save medical costs.
