Peritoneal metastasis is a common form of distant metastasis in patients with colorectal cancer, and it is typically associated with a poor prognosis. The development of peritoneal metastasis involves complex molecular mechanisms and multifactorial regulation of the tumor microenvironment. Due to the presence of the blood-peritoneal barrier, only a small amount of systemic medication reaches the peritoneal cavity, resulting in limited efficacy against peritoneal metastasis. Intraperitoneal administration shows significant therapeutic advantages as it can directly target the tumor microenvironment, maintain high local drug concentrations, and reduce systemic toxicity. Intraperitoneal chemotherapy, especially hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy, has become a cornerstone therapeutic strategy in the clinical treatment of peritoneal metastasis. When selecting chemotherapy drugs and drug combinations, pharmacokinetic properties, efficacy, and safety must be comprehensively considered to optimize the treatment outcomes. In addition, the unique microenvironment of the peritoneal cavity provides new treatment approaches for biological treatment strategies, including antitoxins, vaccines, immune checkpoint inhibitors, etc. Techniques such as pressurized intraperitoneal aerosol chemotherapy and novel drug delivery systems demonstrate potential for enhanced efficacy, offering promising alternatives to improve patient outcomes. This article will review peritoneal barrier characteristics, intraperitoneal drug transport, intraperitoneal chemotherapy, and intraperitoneal biological therapies, thereby establishing a theoretical framework for precision therapy in colorectal cancer peritoneal metastasis.

Objective:To investigate the correlation between occupational ionizing radiation exposure and abnormal metabolic indicators, providing a basis for assessing the health risks of occupational ionizing radiation workers and establishing a risk prediction model for chronic metabolic diseases.Methods:In January 2023, 7708 individuals were randomly selected from the occupational health examination data in Zhejiang Province. After excluding 16 individuals due to record errors, 2698 on-the-job workers exposed to ionizing radiation from 2020 to 2021 were selected as the exposure group, 2027 pre-employment workers exposed to ionizing radiation from 2016 to 2022 were selected as the pre-employment control group, and 2967 non-ionizing radiation workers from 2016 to 2022 were selected as the control group. Demographic data, blood routine, urine routine, biochemical indicators, and peripheral blood lymphocyte micronucleus rate of each group were collected. One-way ANOVA and rank sum test were used for comparison of indicators. The exposure group was divided into different groups based on age, exposure duration, and body mass index (BMI), and the correlation between indicators and occupational ionizing radiation was analyzed. Lasso variable selection was conducted by constructing a penalty coefficient (λ), and a complete regression model was established.Results:There were statistically significant differences in indicators such as blood pressure, heart rate, and average hemoglobin concentration between the exposure group and the control group, as well as the pre-employment control group ( P<0.05). Through Lasso variable selection, 19 indicators including exposure length, systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), body weight, body mass index (BMI), urine pH value, red blood cell count, microscopic white blood cells, casts, absolute value of monocytes, mean corpuscular volume of red blood cells, mean hemoglobin concentration, alkaline phosphatase, albumin-to-globulin ratio, total bile acid, α-L-fucosidase, urea, creatinine, and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C). There were statistically significant differences in exposure length, SBP, DBP, body weight, BMI, microscopic white blood cells, casts, albumin-to-globulin ratio, total bile acid, α-L-fucosidase, urea, creatinine, LDL-C, and mean corpuscular volume of red blood cells among workers of different ages in the exposure group ( P<0.05) ; there were statistically significant differences in SBP, DBP, body weight, BMI, microscopic white blood cells, casts, albumin-to-globulin ratio, total bile acid, α-L-fucosidase, urea, creatinine, LDL-C, and mean corpuscular volume of red blood cells among workers with different exposure durations ( P<0.05) ; there were statistically significant differences in exposure length, SBP, DBP, body weight, BMI, red blood cells, microscopic white blood cells, casts, albumin-to-globulin ratio, total bile acid, α-L-fucosidase, urea, creatinine, LDL-C, absolute value of monocytes, mean corpuscular volume of red blood cells, and mean hemoglobin concentration among workers with different BMIs ( P<0.05) . Conclusion:Occupational ionizing radiation is associated with abnormal metabolic indicators such as blood pressure, heart rate, total bile acid, α-L-fucosidase, urea, and creatinine in the human body. More attention should be paid to the risk of chronic metabolic diseases among workers exposed to ionizing radiation.

Objective:To compare the efficacy of the transverse process-lateral pedicle approach and curved vertebroplasty in the treatment of osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture (OVCF).Methods:A retrospective cohort study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 66 patients with OVCF admitted to the Second People′s Hospital of Hefei from December 2021 to June 2023, including 9 males and 57 females aged 60-89 years [(75.6±7.5)years]. The injured segments included T 11 in 17 patients, T 12 in 17, L 1 in 17, and L 2 in 15. Among them, 33 patients underwent vertebroplasty via the transverse process-lateral pedicle approach (lateral approach group), while other 33 patients underwent curved vertebroplasty (curved group). The surgical duration, number of X-ray fluoroscopy, bone cement injection volume, and length of hospital stay were compared between the two groups. Additionally, the restoration efficiency of vertebral height and the correction degree of spinal scoliosis Cobb angle at 2 days postoperatively were compared between the two groups. The changes in serum levels of stress factors including noradrenaline, adrenaline, and cortisol preoperatively and at 2 days postoperatively, the visual analogue scale (VAS) and Oswestry disability index (ODI) preoperatively, at 2 days, 6 months postoperatively, and at the last follow-up were compared between the two groups. The incidence of complications was assessed in the two groups. Results:All the patients were followed up for 12-14 months [(13.2±0.5)months]. The surgical duration and number of X-ray fluoroscopy in the lateral approach group were (30.9±4.1)minutes and (5.9±3.3)times, which were significantly lower than (35.8±3.9)minutes and (9.9±4.4)times in the curved group ( P<0.01). There were no statistically significant differences between the two groups in terms of bone cement injection volume, length of hospital stay, restoration efficiency of vertebral height at 2 days postoperatively, or the correction degree of spinal scoliosis Cobb angle ( P>0.05). The levels of noradrenaline, adrenaline, and cortisol at 2 days postoperatively were (57.3±4.8)ng/ml, (49.9±4.2)ng/ml, (159.3±20.5)nmol/L in the lateral approach group, and (64.3±4.5)ng/ml, (58.3±4.4)ng/ml, (183.5±21.2)nmol/L in the curved group, which were all significantly increased compared with those preoperatively [(42.3±3.5)ng/ml, (38.5±2.8)ng/ml, (128.4±12.3)nmol/L in the lateral approach group and (42.0±3.5)ng/ml, (39.0±3.0)ng/ml, (128.5±12.3)nmol/L in the curved group] ( P<0.01). There were no significant differences between the two groups in terms of the levels of noradrenaline, adrenaline, and cortisol preoperatively ( P>0.05). The levels of noradrenaline, adrenaline, and cortisol at 2 days postoperatively in the lateral approach group were significantly lower than those in the curved group ( P<0.01). The VAS scores for low back pain in the lateral approach group and the curved group were 3(2, 5)points and 5(3, 6)points at 2 days postoperatively, 3(2, 4)points and 3(2, 4)points at 6 months postoperatively, and 2(2, 3)points and 2(2, 4)points at the last follow-up, which were all significantly lower than those preoperatively [7(7, 9)points and 8(6, 9)points] ( P<0.05). Moreover, the VAS scores for low back pain were further decreased over time postoperatively ( P<0.05). The ODI values in the lateral approach group and curved group were (33.4±4.4)% and (33.7±4.3)% at 2 days postoperatively, (23.8±1.6)% and (23.8±1.7)% at 6 months postoperatively, and (15.6±0.9)% and (15.6±0.9)% at the last follow-up, which were all significantly lower than (67.4±4.3)% and (67.5±4.3)% preoperatively ( P<0.05). Moreover, the ODI values were further decreased over time postoperatively ( P<0.05). There were no significant differences between the two groups in terms of the VAS scores for low back pain or ODI values preoperatively, at 2 days, 6 months postoperatively or at the last follow-up ( P>0.05). The complication rate was 12.1% (4/33) in the lateral approach group, which was significantly lower than 51.5% (17/33) in the curved group ( P<0.05). Conclusion:Although both the transverse process-lateral pedicle approach vertebroplasty and the curved vertebroplasty can achieve good therapeutic effects in the treatment of OVCF, the former has shorter surgical duration, fewer times of X-ray fluoroscopy, lower trauma stress levels at 2 days postoperatively, and fewer complications.

Conclusion:Occupational ionizing radiation is associated with abnormal metabolic indicators such as blood pressure, heart rate, total bile acid, α-L-fucosidase, urea, and creatinine in the human body. More attention should be paid to the risk of chronic metabolic diseases among workers exposed to ionizing radiation.

OBJECTIVE:
To explore the clinical and genetic characteristics of a child with intellectual development disorder and seizures due to a variant of AP2M1 gene.
METHODS:
Clinical data of a child with intellectual development disorder and epilepsy who was admitted to the Department of Pediatric Neurology of the Third Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University in January 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. Peripheral blood samples of the child and his parents were collected for whole exome sequencing. Candidate variant was verified by Sanger sequencing and pathogenicity analysis. The three-dimensional structure of the AP2M1 protein was visualized using Chimera v1.10.1 software. Pathogenicity of candidate variant was classified according to the Standards and Guidelines for the Interpretation of Sequence Variants from the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics American College of Medical Genetics (ACMG). With "AP2M1 gene" "epilepsy" "intellectual disability" as the keywords, relevant cases were searched from CNKI, Wanfang Data knowledge service platform and PubMed databases with the search time spanning from the establishment of the database to September 2024. This study was approved by the Medical Ethics Committee of the Third Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University (Ethics No.: 2020-57).
RESULTS:
The child was a 8-years-and-6-months-old boy, who could raise his head at 3 months and sit alone at 8 months old. He could not walk alone at 1 year old and underwent 2 months' rehabilitation treatment, and could walk alone and call his parents at 1-and-a-half-years-old. At 4-years-and-10-months-old, he started to have frequent seizures, manifesting as low level of consciousness, body shaking, accompanied by blinking, lasting about a few seconds several times a day and could be relieved. With the treatment of sodium valproate combined with lamotrigine, the convulsions were controlled, but his movement and cognition were lagged behind. DNA sequencing revealed that he has harbored a novel variant of the AP2M1 gene (NM_004068.3) c.508C>T (p.Arg170Trp). Sanger sequencing confirmed that both of his parents were of the wild-type. According to the guidelines from the American College for Medical Genetics and Genomics (ACMG), the variant was rated as pathogenic (PS2+PS4+PM1+PM2+PP2+PP3). The difference between the wild-type and mutant AP2M1 proteins can be clearly viewed through its three-dimensional structure. Two previous reports have included 5 cases due to the same variant. Common manifestations have included seizures (100%, 5/5), motor retardation (100%, 5/5), intellectual impairment (100%, 5/5), autism spectrum disorder (60%, 3/5), ataxia (100%, 5/5), and special facial features (20%, 1/5).
CONCLUSION
The c.508C>T (p.Arg170Trp) variant of the AP2M1 gene may underlie the intellectual retardation and seizure in this child.

Objective To investigate the distribution and antimicrobial resistance profiles of common pathogens isolated from cerebrospinal fluid(CSF)in CHINET program from 2015 to 2021.Methods The bacterial strains isolated from CSF were identified in accordance with clinical microbiology practice standards.Antimicrobial susceptibility test was conducted using Kirby-Bauer method and automated systems per the unified CHINET protocol.Results A total of 14 014 bacterial strains were isolated from CSF samples from 2015 to 2021,including the strains isolated from inpatients(95.3%)and from outpatient and emergency care patients(4.7%).Overall,19.6%of the isolates were from children and 80.4%were from adults.Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria accounted for 68.0%and 32.0%,respectively.Coagulase negative Staphylococcus accounted for 73.0%of the total Gram-positive bacterial isolates.The prevalence of MRSA was 38.2%in children and 45.6%in adults.The prevalence of MRCNS was 67.6%in adults and 69.5%in children.A small number of vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium(2.2%)and linezolid-resistant Enterococcus faecalis(3.1%)were isolated from adult patients.The resistance rates of Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae to ceftriaxone were 52.2%and 76.4%in children,70.5%and 63.5%in adults.The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant E.coli and K.pneumoniae(CRKP)was 1.3%and 47.7%in children,6.4%and 47.9%in adults.The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii(CRAB)and Pseudomonas aeruginosa(CRPA)was 74.0%and 37.1%in children,81.7%and 39.9%in adults.Conclusions The data derived from antimicrobial resistance surveillance are crucial for clinicians to make evidence-based decisions regarding antibiotic therapy.Attention should be paid to the Gram-negative bacteria,especially CRKP and CRAB in central nervous system(CNS)infections.Ongoing antimicrobial resistance surveillance is helpful for optimizing antibiotic use in CNS infections.
