Objective:To investigate the gut microbiota composition in subclinical hypothyroidism and euthyroidism patients with Hashimoto′s thyroiditis, and its relationship with clinical indicators and inflammatory factors.Methods:A total of 48 patients diagnosed with Hashimoto′s thyroiditis and 28 healthy controls(HC group) were enrolled from Henan Provincial People′s Hospital from July 2019 to March 2022 in this cross-sectional study. According to thyroid function, 18 patients with Hashimoto′s thyroiditis were divided into subclinical hypothyroidism group(SH group) and 30 patients in euthyroidism function group(Eu group). Fecal microbial composition was detected by 16S rRNA sequencing technology, and peripheral blood was collected to test clinical indicators and inflammatory factors.Results:Compared with HC group, there were significant differences in α and β diversity of gut microbiota in SH and Eu group( P=0.045, P=0.037). At the phylum level, Firmicutes, Bacteroidota, and Proteobacteria were the dominant phylum in the three groups. At the genus level, the abundance of 4 bacterial genera increased gradually in HC group, Eu group, and SH group, including Streptococcus, Comamonas, Elizabethkingia, Achromobacter. However, the abundance of the other 9 genera decreased gradually, such as Subdoligranulum, Coprococcus, Oscillospirales_ UCG-010, Clostridia_ UCG-014, Oscillospiraceae_ UCG-002, Alistipes et al. In addition, the level of serum B-cell activating factor was positively correlated with several bacterial genera such as Achromobacter, Streptococcus, Intestinibacter et al. Conclusion:There are differences in the gut microbiota structure of patients with Hashimoto′s thyroiditis in different thyroid functional states, which is correlated with inflammatory factors.

OBJECTIVE:To provide suggestions for standardizing and protecting the off-label drug use. METHODS:Accord-ing to the field interviews with pharmacists and lawyers,the present situation of off-label drug use in judicial practice at home and abroad,and relevant countermeasures were put forward. RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS:At present,there was no mechanism for off-label drug use in the laws and regulations in China;there was only"special circumstances"statement in sporadic terms,while lacking explanation. In judicial practice of medical disputes,judges had different identifications in various references,such as the le-gality of routine and guidelines,teaching medical materials,clinical pathways,and internal regulations of medical institutions pre-pared by authoritative departments. Meanwhile,the judicial environment of hearing cases by identification made the off-label drug use had impartial adjudication. Legislation in 6 countries,including America,allows reasonable off-label drug use;FDA required off-label drug use must be for the benefit of patients rather than clinical trials,and it also should protect the patient's right to know. China should establish the authority specification of off-label drug use,providing scientific identification procedures,protect the patient 's informed consent by law. Medical institutions should develop relevant management system and processes to regulate medical prac-tices and ensure off-label drug use in line with the interests of doctors and patients.

[Objective]To investigate the effect of Luteolin on mRNA expression ,protein expression and enzyme activity of 11β-Hydroxysteroid Dehydrogenase (11β-HSD) in rats.[Methods]Twenty-four rats were randomly divided into 4 groups and orally administrated with vehicle(1 % CMC-Na solution)or Luteolin(5,10 or 20 mg/kg daily)for 14 days. Gene expression of 11β-HSD I and 11β-HSD II in liver and kidney was determined with quantitative RT-PCR method. Protein expression was deter-mined with quantitative Western Blot method. The enzyme activity was expressed as the production rate of metabolites of prednisone and prednisolone.[Results]Luteolin significantly induced gene expression of 11β-HSD I and inhibited gene expression of 11β-HSD II in liver tissues ,significantly inhibited gene expression of 11β-HSD I and induced gene expression of 11β-HSD II in kid-ney tissues. Luteolin obviously up-regulated protein expression of 11β-HSD I and down-regulated protein expression of 11β-HSD II in liver tissues ,down-regulated protein expression of 11β-HSD I and up-regulated protein expression of 11β-HSD II in kidney tissues. Luteolin significantly induced activity of 11β-HSD I in liver and11β-HSD II in kidney.[Conclusions]Luteolin could change the activity of corresponding enzyme through affecting gene expression ,protein expression and enzyme activity of 11β-HSD I and 11β-HSD II in liver and kidney tissues in rat ,and affect in vivo activation of glucocorticoids and hormone level in liver and kidney.

Objective To determine the diagnostic value of cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) in children with myocarditis. Methods A total of 27 children with myocarditis were examined with cardiac MRI, including 16 new?onset cases and 11 chronic cases, as well as 14 cases with non?myocarditis. Sequences included SSFP in axial, two chamber, four chamber and short axis, T2?weighted triple inversion recovery, T1?weighted spin echo before and after gadolinium injection, and inversion recovery?gradient echo after gadolinium injection(late gadolinium enhancement, LGE) in axial and short axis. Qualitative and quantitative image analysis was performed to obtain focal T2 signal intensity and early enhancement signal intensity(SI) ratio of myocardium to skeletal muscleon EGE and LGE.The sensitivity, specificity and accuracy were calculated. Mann?Whitney and χ2 test were used for statistical comparison. Results The median value of EF was 60.20%(44.40%,70.20%), median value of T2W SI ratio was 2.50(2.04, 3.79),and there were 13 cases with LGE positive findings in myocarditis group. The median value of EF was 73.60%(65.40%,75.85%), the median value of T2WI SI ratio was 1.85(1.77, 2.15), and one case presented LGE positive sign in non?myocarditis group. There were significant statistical differences between the two groups (Z=-2.94,-2.52 ,χ2=5.19 ,P<0.05). The sensitivities for T2WI, EGE, LGE were 81.5%(22/27), 14.8%(4/27) and 48.1%(13/27) respectively. The specificities for T2WI, EGE, LGE were 57.1%(8/14), 100.0%(14/14)and 92.9%(13/14) respectively. The diagnostic accuracies for T2WI, EGE, LGE were 73.2%(30/41), 43.9%(18/41) and 63.4%(26/41) respectively. The best diagnostic performance was obtained when“any?two”of the three sequences were positive in the same patient, yielding a 51.9%(14/27)sensitivity, 92.9%(13/14) specificity, and 65.9%(27/41) diagnostic accuracy.Conclusions The combined CMR approach using T2?weighted imaging, early and late gadolinium enhancement, provides a high diagnostic accuracy and is a useful tool in the diagnosis and assessment of children with myocarditis.

Objective To investigate the effect of Gardiner bacteria infection on preterm delivery and changes of endocrine hor-mone levels.Methods Application of Gardiner bacteria fluorescent marker detection kit in 120 cases of suspected Gardiner bacteria infection pregnant women with immunofluorescence assay,and the levels of serum follicle stimulating hormone (FSH),luteinizing hormone (LH),estradiol (E2),progesterone (P)were measured at the same time,90 cases of non maternal Gardiner bacteria infec-tion were enrolled as control.Results After the treatment,98 cases of pregnant women with Gardiner bacteria infection should ex-perienced premature delivery (24-37 week),accounted for 81.67%,compared with the normal pregnant women were statistically significant (P <0.05);and 22 cases of Gardiner bacteria infection pregnant women after treatment no premature birth,accounted for 18.33%,and to all pregnant women infected Gardiner bacteria and experiencing preterm delivery and the control group levels of endocrine hormone were determined,compared the results of FSH,LH,found no significant differences(P >0.05),E2 increased,P decreased,changed significantly (P <0.05 ).Conclusion The probability of premature delivery in women infected with Gardiner bacteria is significantly higher than that of normal pregnant women,at the same time the secretion of hormone changes,so dealing with pre pregnancy and early pregnancy should carry owt Gardiner bacteria examination.

Objective To evaluate the effects of dexmedetomidine on the cerebral oxygen metabolism in elderly patients undergoing general anesthesia.Methods Sixty ASA physical status Ⅰ or Ⅱ patients,aged 60-87 yr,scheduled for elective abdominal surgery under general anesthesia,were randomly divided into 2 groups (n =25 each) using a random number table:control group (group C) and dexmedetomidine group (group D).Anesthesia was induced with iv injection of midazolam,fentanyl,atracurium and propofol.The patients were tracheally intubated and mechanically ventilated.In group D,dexmedetomidine 1.0μg/kg was infused intravenously over 20 min before induction of anesthesia,while the equal volume of normal saline was given in group C.Before induction of anesthesia,at 0 and 10 min after tracheal intubation and at the end of operation (T0-3),blood samples were taken from the radial artery and jugular bulb for blood gas analysis.Arteriovenous blood O2 content difference (DajvO2) and cerebral O2 extraction rate (CERO2) were calculated at the same time.The development of emergence agitation and postoperative delirium within 48 h after surgery were recorded.Resets Compared with the baseline values at T0,the Da-jvO2 and CERO2 were significantly decreased at T1-3 in the two groups (P ＜ 0.05).Compared with group C,the Da-jvO2 and CERO2 were significandy decreased at T2-3,and the incidence of emergence agitation and postoperative delirium within 48 h after surgery was decreased in group D (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Dexmedetomidine can improve the cerebral oxygen metabolism and reduce the development of postoperative delirium in elderly patients undergoing general anesthesia.

Objective To evaluate the effects of dexmedetomidine-propofol-fentanyl combined anesthesia on somatosensory evoked potentials (SEPs) and motor evoked potentials (MEPs) in patients undergoing cervical spine surgery. Methods Thirty-six patients undergoing cervical spine surgery were randomly divided into 2 groups (n = 18 each): propofol-fentanyl combined anesthesia group (group C) and dexmedetomidine-propofol-fentanyl combined anesthesia group (group D). Anesthesia was induced with TCI of propofol and iv injection of fentanyl.After the consciousness disappeared, a laryngeal mask airway was placed and the patients were ventilated. In group D, dexmedetomidine 0.5 μg/kg was injected over 10 min after the consciousness disappeared, followed by an infusion at a rate of 0.5 μg·kg-1 ·h-1 until the end of surgery. In group C, the equal volume of normal saline was administered instead of dexmedetomidine. SEPs (P15-N20) amplitudes and latency were measured and recorded before dexmedetomidine administration and at 10 min of dexmedetomidine infusion. The no-elicitation of MEPs was recorded. Results Compared with group C, there was no significant difference in P15-N20 amplitudes and latency in group D. The no-elicitation rate of MEPs in two groups was 0. Conclusion Dexmedetomidine-propofol-fentanyl combined anesthesia does not affect SEPs and MEPs in patients undergoing cervical spine surgery.
