Objective To investigate the clinical features and long - term prognosis of neonatal lupus erythe-matosus(NLE)and to improve the understanding of NLE. Methods The clinical manifestations and related serologi-cal tests of NLE children diagnosed from June 2010 to January 2014 were analyzed. Regular follow - up was carried out to detect the general condition,rash,blood routine,urine routine,liver and kidney function,complement,red blood cell sedimentation rate(ESR),auto antibodies,electrocardiogram,and ultrasound cardiogram. Results Among the 11 NLE cases,there were 6 male and 5 female patients. All had lesions on skin,3 cases had hematologic changes,7 cases were had liver damage,and 4 cases had heart impairment. The antinuclear antibody and anti - sjogren sydrome A/ Ro antigen (SSA/ Ro)were positive in all the patients. The anti - sjogren sydrome B antigen was positive in 5 patients. The anti -double stands deoxyribonucleic acid antibody was positive in 4 patients. Antibody against U1 - ribonudeoprotein was positive in 3 patients,and the level of ESR was higher in 5 patients. The antinuclear antibody and anti - SSA/ Ro anti-body were positive in all mothers. Only 1 mother had no symptom before pregnancy,7 patients had SLE,3 patients had sjogren syndrome. Seven patients received protect liver enzyme treatment,3 cases of glucocorticoid therapy,and 1 case had combined intravenous treatment with gamma globulin. Among the 11 cases,10 cases were followed up for 10 months to 4 years,while 1 case died from complete bundle branch block after 5 weeks of birth. At 1 year old,10 cases of cuta-neous lupus damage had liver damage were resorted to normal,and the rheumatic autoimmune related autoantibodies of 9 cases turned to be negative,but 1 case was diagnosed as Kawasaki disease when she was 1 year old. Conclusions One of the most common clinical manifestations of NLE was damage of skin,had the liver and blood system abnormity were common but usually not serious. Heart disease especially complete atrioventricular block was less. The long - term follow - up for children with NLE is necessary,and the majority of the prognosis is good,as only a few have the possibi-lity of developing other autoimmune diseases.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate the renal function in treatment-naive patients with hepatitis B virus (HBV) related cirrhosis and to identify the risk factors for renal impairment.
METHODSWe collected the data of 860 HBV-related cirrhosis patients hospitalized in our unit between Jan 1, 2011 and Dec 31, 2011. Liver function of the patients was assessed with Child-Pugh score system, and the renal function with estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) calculated by Modification of Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD) equation recommended by Kidney Disease Outcomes Quality Initiative (K/DOQI). We investigated the prevalence of renal impairment (eGFR>60 ml/min/1.73 m(2)) among these patients and explored the risk factors for renal impairment.
RESULTSOf the 860 patients, 296 had complete clinical data and were included in our analysis. The overall incidence of renal impairment among the enrolled patients was 8.45% (25/296). Patients with Child-Pugh stage C showed a significantly higher incidence of renal impairment than those with stages B and A (17.17% [17/99] vs 6.67%[7/105] vs 1.09% [1/92], P<0.001). Age, history of hyperuricemia, and Child-Pugh score were identified as the risk factors for renal impairment in these patients.
CONCLUSIONIn patients with HBV-related liver cirrhosis, the incidence of renal impairment increases significantly with deterioration of the liver function, and renal function should be regularly monitored in these patients for appropriate antiviral treatment.

Objective:To analyze the clinical characteristics and risk factors of juvenile dermatomyositis (JDM) with relapses by comparing clinical features, treatment and disease course among JDM patients with and without relapses.Methods:A retrospective analysis of 102 JDM patients from Children's Hospital of Nanjing Medical University between March 2017 and March 2021 was carried out. Patients were divided into two groups based on whether a JDM relapse had occurred or not. Initial clinical features, laboratory tests and treatment were compared between the two groups. T-test or Mann-Whitney U test was used for measurement data, chi-square test or fisher exact probability was used for count data. The features associated with risk of relapses were analyzed by multivariate logistic regression. Results:Among 102 children with JDM, twenty patients (19.6%) relapsed during drug reduction or after drug withdrawal. The mean duration to the first relapse was 3.24 years (range: 9 months to 7 years). Myositis specific antibodies (MSA) were positive for 8 (40.0%) patients with relapses. With 5 cases were anti-nuclear matrix protein 2 positive, 2 cases were anti-transcription interme-diary factor 1 gamma positive, 1 case was anti-signal recognition particle (SRP) positive, the other 12 cases were MSA negative. By binary logistic regression analysis, we found that peripheral calcinosis [ OR(95% CI)=17.54(1.55, 198.64), P=0.021], and interstitial lung disease [ OR(95% CI)=3.83(1.27, 11.59), P=0.017] were independently related to JDM with relapses. Fifty-three patients (51.9%) received methylpre-dnisolone pulse therapy for initial treatment and 13 (65.0%) patients with relapses received methylprednisolone pulse for initial treatment. There was no significant difference between the two groups ( χ2=1.70 , P=0.193). Tumor necrosis factor alpha antagonist combined with methotrexate (MTX) had achieved good results in clinical treatment in children with relapses. Conclusion:The risk of relapses is high in children with JDM. Calcinosis and interstitial lung disease at disease onset can predict a relapsing disease course. Aggressive treatment is urgently demanded for patients with JDM, especially those with relapses.

OBJECTIVE To systematically evaluate the efficacy and safety of vonoprazan in the treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease, and to provide evidence-based reference for clinical drug use. METHODS Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) about vonoprazan (trial group) versus placebo or proton pump inhibitor (control group) were searched in PubMed, the Cochrane Library, Web of Science, CNKI, Wanfang, VIP and CBM databases from the inception to June, 2022. After literature screening and data extraction, the qualities of included literature were evaluated with bias assessment tool recommended by Cochrane system evaluator manual 5.1.0. Meta-analysis, sensitivity analysis and publication bias analysis were conducted by using RevMan 5.4 software. RESULTS A total of 9 RCTs were included, involving 1 882 patients. The results of meta-analysis showed that: total response rate [OR=1.94,95%CI(1.45,2.58),P<0.000 01], cure rate [OR=2.27,95%CI(1.33,3.86),P=0.003] and remission rate [OR=1.81,95%CI(1.28, 2.55), P=0.000 7] of trial group were significantly higher than control group; there was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse drug events, diarrhea, nasopharyngitis, upper respiratory tract infection and alkaline phosphatase elevation between two groups (P>0.05). The results of subgroup analysis showed that cure rate of trial group was significantly higher than control group at 2 weeks of treatment (P<0.05); at 4 and 8 weeks of treatment, there was no significant difference in the cure rate between two groups (P>0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in the cure rate between two groups at 2, 4 and 8 weeks of treatment among the patients with Los Angeles grade A/B (P>0.05); among the patients with Los Angeles grade C/D, the cure rate of patients in the trial group was significantly higher than control group at 2, 4 and 8 weeks of treatment (P<0.05). The results of sensitivity analysis and publication bias analysis showed that the results of this study were robust and the possibility of publication bias was small. CONCLUSIONS Vonoprazan has a considerable effectiveness and safety in the treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease.
