Spinal cord injury (SCI) is a serious nervous system disease that usually leads to the impairment of the motor, sensory, and autonomic nervous functions of the spinal cord, and it places a heavy burden on families and healthcare systems every year. Due to the complex pathophysiological mechanism of SCI and the poor ability of neurons to regenerate, the current treatment scheme has very limited effects on the recovery of spinal cord function. In addition, due to their unique advantages, exosomes can be used as carriers for cargo transport. In recent years, some studies have confirmed that treatment with mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) can promote the recovery of SCI nerve function. The therapeutic effect of MSCs is mainly related to exosomes secreted by MSCs, and exosomes may have great potential in SCI therapy. In this review, we summarized the repair mechanism of mesenchymal stem cells-derived exosomes (MSCs-Exos) in SCI treatment and discussed the microRNAs related to SCI treatment based on MSCs-Exos and their mechanism of action, which is helpful to further understand the role of exosomes in SCI.

Objective:To standardize the management of pediatric Investigator-Initiated Trails (IIT) and improve the execution quality, this study takes a tertiary hospital for children in Shanghai as an example to analyze and summarize the main quality problems in the implementation of pediatric IIT projects and provide appropriate suggestions.Methods:From 2020 to 2022, based on the quality indicators of the IIT project of Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine, and combined with the characteristics of pediatrics, a centralized monitoring method was used to conduct spot checks and evaluations on the IIT project of a tertiary hospital for children in Shanghai.Results:From 2020 to 2022, a total of 77 IIT projects were inspected, including 27 in the initiation stage, 36 in the execution stage, and 14 in the conclusion stage. In terms of ethical compliance, there are issues with researchers′ weak ethical awareness and non-standard signing of informed consent in the pediatric IIT project.

Objective To explore the predictive value of baseline serum electrolyte levels for adverse prognosis in patients with severe traumatic brain injury(sTBI)in Lanzhou Plateau Area.Methods A total of 210 sTBI patients admitted to our hospital were enrolled,and then divided into good progno-sis group(91 cases)and poor prognosis group(119 cases)according to clinical outcome.The clinical data and serum electrolyte levels were compared between the two groups.Multivariate logistic regres-sion analysis was used to analyze the influencing factors of poor prognosis,and ROC curve was plot-ted to analyze the predictive value of the influencing factors.Results There were significant differ-ences in diabetes,GCS score,serum calcium and magnesium levels between the two groups(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that diabetes(OR=3.483,95％CI:1.452-8.357),GCS score(OR=0.464,95％CI:0.3 6 3-0.594),hypocalcemia(OR=6.243,95％CI:3.353-11.626)and hypermagnesemia(OR=9.985,95％CI:1.251-19.701)were the influencing factors for poor prognosis of sTBI patients.ROC curve analysis showed that the AUC val-ue was 0.702(95％CI:0.635-0.763)in hypocalcemia and 0.565(95％CI:0.495-0.633)in hy-permagnesemia for the prediction.Conclusion Diabetes,low GCS score,hypocalcemia and hypermag-nesemia are risk factors for poor prognosis of sTBI patients at high altitude.Hypocalcemia has good predictive value in the prediction and can be used as an independent predictor.

Objective:To explore the critical issues in the construction of management and supporting system of Investigator-Initiated trials (IIT) in pediatrics.Methods:Through summarizing related literature and considering the current status of pediatric clinical research, the critical issues in the construction of management and support system, for instance, the responsibility, training model, and performance evaluation in Europe and U. S. were evaluated, decision-making suggestions were put forward based on domestic pediatric IIT management system.Results:Besides IIT, clinical trials on children′s drugs are also supported by the pediatric clinical research management system in Europe and U. S.. The supporting service covers research consultation, ethical review, research design, trial implementation, patient education, risk control, and investigator training. The organizational structure and management system are relatively mature. Clinical trials are the majority of clinical research in children′s hospitals in China. Main issues identified in the construction of the management and supporting system include ethical review for pediatric clinical research, professional investigator training, multicenter cooperation scheme, performance assessment, and incentive strategies.Conclusions:Taking account into the current status of pediatric IIT in China, it is urgent to accelerate the training of pediatric investigators, set up standard IIT project management team, build the professional project management platform and Electronic Data Capture System, and promote the transformation of research outcomes. Finally, the whole process management of pediatric IIT will be developed to facilitate the development of pediatric medicine.

Objective:To investigate the predictive role of dynamic changes of plasma biomarkers in patients with viral and mycoplasma community-acquired pneumonia (CAP).Methods:From January 2020 to June 2020, 141 patients with viral and mycoplasma CAP in People's Hospital of Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region were enrolled. Pneumonia severity index (PSI) scores [grade Ⅰ-Ⅱ(PSI score ≤ 70), grade Ⅲ (PSI score 71-90) and grade Ⅳ-Ⅴ(PSI score ≥ 91)], serum amyloid A (SAA), hypersensitive C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), procalcitonin (PCT), erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) and white blood cell (WBC) on the 1 day after admission were compared between the different pathogens (viral and mycoplasma) or different disease severity. The change in level of SAA, hs-CRP on the third day (Δ 3 d = 1 d-3 d) were compared among different disease outcome groups (patients were divided into improved group, stable group and exacerbation group based on PSI scores or lung CT images on the third day). The change in the level of SAA, hs-CRP on the seventh day (Δ 7 d = 1 d-7 d) were compared among different disease prognosis groups (patients were divided into survival group and death group based on 28-day survival data). The receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) were drawn to evaluate the value of SAA in the evaluation of disease and prediction prognosis. Results:The level of SAA in mycoplasma group (43 cases) was significantly higher than that in virus group (98 cases) on the 1 day after admission. There were no significant differences in other plasma biomarkers between the two groups. The more severe the illness, the higher the SAA level on the 1 day after admission. The trends of other plasma biomarkers in the two groups were consistent with SAA. The levels of SAA in the patients with exacerbation of the virus group and mycoplasma group (12 cases, 9 cases) were significantly higher than those of the improved group (57 cases, 26 cases) and the stable group (29 cases, 8 cases). SAA increased gradually in the exacerbation group, decreased gradually in the improved group, and slightly increased in the stable group. ΔSAA 3 d were differences among three groups. The change trend of hs-CPR was consistent with SAA. The level of SAA in the death group was higher than that in the survival group on the seventh day. SAA increased in the death group and decreased in survival group with time from hospital admission. There were differences according to ΔSAA 7 d between death group and survival group. The change trend of hs-CPR was consistent with SAA. ROC curve showed that the value of SAA was better than hs-CRP in assessing the severity of patients on admission day, and the area under ROC curve (AUC) was respectively 0.777 [95% confidence interval (95% CI) was 0.669-0.886], 0.729 (95% CI was 0.628-0.830). The value of ΔSAA 3 d was better than SAA on the third day predicting disease trends, and AUC was respectively 0.979 (95% CI was 0.921-1.000), 0.850 (95% CI was 0.660-1.000). hs-CRP on the third day and Δhs-CRP 3 d had no predictive value. Both SAA on the seventh day and ΔSAA 7 d have predictive value for prognosis. AUC was respectively 0.954 (95% CI was 0.898-0.993) and 0.890 (95% CI was 0.689-1.000). SAA on the seventh day and ΔSAA 7 d were better than hs-CRP on the seventh day. Δhs-CRP 7 d have no predictive value. Conclusions:SAA is a sensitive and valuable indicator for CAP patients with viruses and mycoplasma. Dynamic monitoring of SAA can evaluate the patient's progression, prognosis, and assist diagnosis and treatment.

Objective:To analyze the tendency of incidence and mortality of mechanical injuries among Chinese residents from 1990 through 2019 and to estimate the age-period-cohort effect.Methods:Based on the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) 2019 database, the incidence and mortality data of mechanical injuries among Chinese residents from 1990 to 2019 were extracted. The trends of age-standardized incidence rate (ASIR) and age-standardized death rate (ASDR) of mechanical injuries among Chinese residents by gender was analyzed using the joinpoint regression model, and the annual percent change (APC) and average annual percent change (AAPC) were calculated. The age-period-cohort model was used to quantitatively assess the effects of age, period, and cohort on ASIR and ASDR for mechanical injuries.Results:① Overall tendency: from 1990 to 2019, the ASIR of mechanical injuries showed an increasing trend (540.95/100 000 in 1990 vs. 815.34/100 000 in 2019), and the ASDR first increased slightly and then decreased (2.62/100 000 in 1990 vs. 2.87/100 000 in 2005 vs. 1.77/100 000 in 2019) among Chinese residents. During the observation period, ASIR and ASDR for mechanical injuries of male were higher than female. ② Joinpoint regression model analysis showed that the ASIR of mechanical injuries had a fluctuating trend of increasing first and then decreasing and then rising rapidly among Chinese residents from 1990 to 2019 (AAPC = 1.42%, t = 9.59, P < 0.001). The ASIR of the Chinese male showed a slight decrease and then continued to increase (AAPC = 1.47%, t = 8.72, P < 0.001), while the ASIR of the Chinese female showed a rapid rising at first, then rapidly declining and then rising again (AAPC = 1.31%, t = 12.11, P < 0.001). From 1990 to 2019, the ASDR of mechanical injuries showed a fluctuating downward trend of first decreasing, then increasing, and then rapidly decreasing among Chinese residents (AAPC = -1.39%, t = -6.72, P < 0.001). The decrease rate of ASDR among male was as same as that among all population (AAPC = -1.44%, t = -7.29, P < 0.001), but the decrease rate of ASDR in female was relatively slow (AAPC = -1.08%, t = -4.54, P < 0.001). ③ Age-period-cohort model analysis showed that, with the increase of age, the risk of mechanical injuries among the overall population, male and female in China increased, then decreased, and then increased rapidly. The first small peak was at the age of 45-49 years old in male and 65-69 years old in female. The overall death risk showed an increasing trend with age, with a slowly increasing trend before 75 years old, and a sudden increase after 75 years old. The peak age of death risk was between 90 and 94 years. In terms of period effect, the risk of mechanical injuries showed a gradually increasing trend with time among the overall population, male, and female in China, and the risk of death showed a trend of decreasing first and then rapidly increasing and then decreasing. In terms of cohort effect, the risk of mechanical injuries among the overall population, male, and female in China showed a gradual upward trend with the increase in the birth year, and the risk of death showed an M-shaped trend. Conclusions:From 1990 to 2019, the incidence of mechanical injuries showed an increasing trend, and the mortality increased first and then decreased. Although the disease burden has improved, it is still high. More attention needs to be paid to the prevention and control of mechanical injuries, especially in the young population.

ObjectiveTo investigate effect of conducting training of autism spectrum disorder （ASD） early screening skill on improving the ability to early identify ASD of medical staffs in primary care hospitals. MethodsIn September 2021， the training of ASD early screening skills was carried out for medical staffs from 20 primary care hospitals in Chengdu. After training， the training effect was evaluated. The numbers of referrals from primary care hospitals to superior hospitals， confirmed ASD as well as their average diagnostic age of children with ASD before and after training were used as evaluation indicators. ResultsAfter training， the number of children with suspected ASD referred by primary care hospitals was more than that before training ［（16.65±11.60） vs. （3.40±2.23）， t=5.431， P<0.01］， the number of children diagnosed with ASD was more than that before training［（6.85±4.93） vs. （2.45±1.67）， t=4.171， P<0.01］， and the differences were statistically significant. As for the diagnosed age of ASD children， after training， the average age was lower than that before training ［（34.95±11.67） vs. （42.2±14.64）， t=-2.553， P=0.019］. ConclusionTraining of ASD early screening skills for medical staffs in primary care hospitals may help to improve their ability to early screening ASD children.

The clinical features, electroneurophysiology, neuroimaging and gene characteristics of one case of early adult-onset dentatorubral-pallidoluysian atrophy (DRPLA) with an onset of epilepsy were reported. The female patient had the onset manifestation of epilepsy. Whereafter, she progressively developed marked cerebellar ataxia, mental retardation and choreic movement. Electroencephalography showed that there were multiple complex slow waves in the whole brain cortex. Magnetic resonance imaging showed the patient had marked atrophies in the cerebral cortex, brainstem and cerebellum. Atrophin-1 gene detection revealed that the numbers of CAG repeats were 15/65 (the patient) and 14/54 (her father) respectively. Her father had no clinical manifestations until now. The mother and brother were normal. DRPLA has diverse clinical presentation,heterogeneous phenotypic spectrum, early adult-onset DRPLA is rare, and the specific gene detection can be helpful for a definitive diagnosis.

【Objective】 To investigate the blood compatibility of transfusion sets for single use, the loss, damage and activation of blood components after passage through the transfusion sets. 【Methods】 Transfusion sets (sample A and B) were assessed by comparing samples of blood component taken prior to and after passage through. The following makers of damage/activation were evaluated: Red blood cells (RBCs)-supernatant free hemoglobin (FHb) and potassium(K⁺ ) amount; platelet concentrates (PCs)-pH, hypotonic shock response (HSR), supernatant lactate dehydrogenase(LDH), CD62P; fresh frozen plasma(FFP) – prothrombin fragments 1 and 2 (F1+ 2), fibrinopeptide A (FPA), coagulation factor Ⅻa (FⅫa), Thrombin-antithrombin complex (TAT). 【Results】 After passing through two types of transfusion sets, the loss of RBCs, PCs and FFP were less than 5%. There is no statistic difference for the change of FHb and K⁺ of RBCs(P>0.05). There were no statistics for pH, LDH(U/L) and CD62P(%) after platelet concentrates passing through both transfusion sets. There was no statistics for the HSR after passing through the sample A, while there was a small but statistically significant increase in the HSR of sample B (37.17±6.49 vs 40.75±6.24, P<0.05). After FFP passing through the transfusion giving sets, there were no statistical difference for F1+ 2, FPA, FⅫa and TAT (P>0.05). 【Conclusion】 Two types of transfusion sets caused negligible effects on RBCs, platelet concentrates and FFP.
