This article reported the diagnosis and management of a case of a child with Kabuki syndrome. Kabuki syndrome is characterized by distinct facial features, skeletal anomalies, abnormal skin texture, and intellectual disabilities, and is primarily caused by heterozygous mutations in the lysine methyltransferase 2D(KMT2D) gene. The onset in this patient was insidious, presenting with short stature and intellectual impairment. Genetic testing identified a pathogenic heterozygous variant in the KMT2D gene. This article focuses on analyzing the necessity and appropriateness of growth hormone therapy in children with Kabuki syndrome, and includes a review of relevant literature to improve clinicians′ understanding of this rare condition.

Objective To explore the application value of MR MAGiC sequence reconstructed based on deep learning reconstruction(DLR)for localizing epileptogenic focus of intractable epilepsy.Methods Fifty intractable epilepsy patients(epilepsy group)and 20 healthy controls(control group)were retrospectively collected.Brain MR MAGiC sequence was scanned,then traditional reconstruction(inverse Fourier transform)and DLR algorithm were performed to obtain MAGiC and MAGiC DLR images,respectively.The corresponding quantitative parameter maps were generated after post-processing,including T1 mapping,T2 mapping and proton density(PD)mapping.The subjective scores of noise,artifacts,structural clarity and overall quality were compared between two kinds of quantitative parameter images.The asymmetry index(AI)of quantitative parameters(T1,T2 and PD values)between the affected side and the contralateral side in epilepsy group,the contralateral side or the suspected epileptogenic focus in epilepsy group and HC group were calculated.Then epileptogenic focus were localized based on performance of MAGiC and MAGiC DLR corresponding quantitative parameter maps combining obtained AI of quantitative parameter values.According to surgical results,follow-up review,electroencephalogram or PET results,the accuracy of MAGiC and MAGiC DLR images for localizing epileptogenic focus was calculated.Results Compared with MAGiC quantitative parametric maps,noise of MAGiC DLR quantitative parametric maps reduced,while subjective scores of structure clarity and overall quality improved(all P＜0.05).The accuracy of MAGiC and MAGiC DLR images for localizing epileptogenic focus was 82.00％(41/50)and 88.00％(44/50),respectively.Conclusion MR MAGiC sequence based on DLR was beneficial for improving accuracy of localizing epileptogenic focus in intractable epilepsy.

Epidermal growth factor receptor inhibitor (EGFRI) -related paronychia is a condition clearly related to EGFRI therapy, characterized by periungual erythema, edema, purulent exudates, periungual or subungual granulomatous lesions, and sometimes accompanied by thinning, fragility or even splitting and seperation of nail plates. Inhibition of epidermal function, inflammation and secondary infections, as well as angiogenesis are the core processes in the occurrence and development of EGFRI-related paronychia. This review summarizes epidemiology, pathogenesis, clinical manifestations, prevention and treatment of EGFRI-related paronychia.

Objective:This study aims to evaluate the subcortical structural alteration patterns associated with five distinct neuropsychiatric symptoms (NPS) associated with Parkinson′s disease and provide macroscopic brain structural evidence to further explore their underlying pathophysiological mechanism.Methods:Clinical data and 3D-T 1 weighted images from 505 patients with Parkinson′s disease and 167 age-and sex-matched healthy controls were obtained from the Parkinson′s Progression Markers Initiative database (July 2010-August 2022). The subcortical nucleus volumes of the overall NPS patient group, as well as subgroups of patients with specific NPS subtypes (depression, anxiety, apathy, impulsive-compulsive behaviors (ICBs), and hallucinations), were measured and compared to those of healthy controls through mixed-effects models. Spatial similarity analysis and hierarchical clustering analysis of subcortical volume alteration patterns were employed to investigate the commonalities and specificities of subcortical damage in NPS. Results:NPS patients exhibited widespread subcortical atrophy, primarily concentrated in the bilateral putamen, bilateral hippocampus, and left amygdala (Cohen′s d=-0.38--0.12, FDR P<0.05). Subgroup analysis revealed that anxiety and depression were associated with gray matter atrophy in the bilateral putamen and amygdala (Cohen′s d=-0.73--0.32, FDR P<0.05), while apathy, hallucinations, and ICBs were linked to atrophy in the bilateral putamen, bilateral amygdala, and bilateral hippocampus (Cohen′s d=-0.61--0.11, FDR P<0.05,Cohen′s d=-0.43--0.36, P<0.05). Similarity and clustering analyses demonstrated high spatial correlation between anxiety and depression ( r=0.83, P<0.01), forming one cluster, whereas apathy, hallucinations, and ICBs formed another distinct cluster. Conclusion:NPS in Parkinson′s disease exhibit both commonalities and specificities. Apathy, hallucinations, and ICBs are associated with more severe subcortical damage patterns. These findings may provide new insights into the pathophysiology and progression of Parkinson′s disease.

Objective:To analyze the effect of long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) small nucleolar RNA host gene 16 (SNHG16) on the radiosensitivity of cervical cancer cells and explore its regulatory role in the miR-455-3p/ nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) signaling pathway.Methods:The expression levels of lncRNA SNHG16 and miR-455-3p in human normal cervical epithelial cells H8, human cervical cancer cells SiHa, and radioresistant cervical cancer cells SiHa-R were detected by real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction. SiHa-R cells were transfected separately, and then given a single dose of 4 Gy X-ray irradiation and continued to be cultured for subsequent experiments. The cells in each group were named siRNA-NC, siRNA-SNHG16 (interfering lncRNA SNHG16), NC mimic, miR-455-3p mimic (overexpressing miR-455-3p), siRNA-SNHG16+inhibitor NC, and siRNA-SNHG16+miR-455-3p inhibitor groups, respectively. The survival fraction of SiHa-R cells was detected by clone formation assay. The apoptosis rate of SiHa-R cells was analyzed by flow cytometry. The expression levels of apoptotic proteins [cysteine-containing aspartate-specific protease (Caspase)-3, Caspase-9, Bax] and NF-κB signaling pathway related proteins [NF-κB p65, phosphorylated (p)-NF-κB p65, p-IκB (inhibitory protein of NF-κB)] were measured by Western blot. The targeting relationship between lncRNA SNHG16 and miR-455-3p was determined by dual luciferase reporter gene assay. Comparison among different groups was conducted by one-way ANOVA, and paired comparison was carried out by LSD t-test. Comparison between two groups was performed by t-test. Results:Compared with H8 cells, the expression levels of lncRNA SNHG16 were increased in SiHa and SiHa-R cells, and SiHa-R cells had a higher level than SiHa cells. The expression levels of miR-455-3p were decreased in SiHa and SiHa-R cells, and SiHa-R cells had a lower level than SiHa cells (all P<0.001). Compared with the siRNA-NC group, the survival fraction of SiHa-R cells in the siRNA-SNHG16 group was decreased, the radiosensitization ratio (SER) was 1.571 (>1), the apoptosis rate and levels of Caspase-3, Caspase-9, and Bax proteins were increased, while the levels of p-NF-κB p65 and p-IκB proteins were decreased (all P<0.001). lncRNA SNHG16 could target miR-455-3p. Compared with the NC mimic group, miR-455-3p level in the miR-455-3p mimic group was increased, cell survival fraction was decreased, the SER was 1.826 (>1), the apoptosis rate and the levels of Caspase-3, Caspase-9, Bax proteins were increased, and the levels of p-NF-κB p65 and p-IκB proteins were decreased (all P<0.001). Inhibition of miR-455-3p expression could weaken the effect of interfering with lncRNA SNHG16 expression on SiHa-R cell apoptosis, radiotherapy sensitivity, and NF-κB signaling pathway (all P<0.001). Conclusions:Interference with lncRNA SNHG16 expression could induce the apoptosis of cervical cancer cells and enhance their radiation sensitivity by regulating the miR-455-3p/NF-κB signaling pathway.

Pulmonary nodules(PNs),a critical imaging indicator for early lung cancer screening,require deeper mechanistic explo-ration of their malignant transformation.Current Western medicine strategies—primarily surveillance—suffer from delayed interven-tion,while traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)theories(e.g.,"phlegm-blood stasis binding")inadequately explain the dynamic pro-gression of malignancy.Integrating You Yi's theory of"where there is mass hardness,there must be latent yang"with modern research on PN malignant transformation,this study proposes a novel pathogenic mechanism of"latent yang as cause,mass hardness as effect":Depressed latent yang drives pro-tumorigenic microenvironments(e.g.,immunosuppression,hypoxic stress,chronic inflammation),leading to the coagulation of phlegm,stasis,fire,and toxins into cancer toxin.Based on this framework,a core therapeutic principle of"dispersing latent yang and intercepting malignant transition in stages"was established,providing a new paradigm for TCM-based early intervention against PN malignancy.

Objective:To investigate the effect of circular RNA bromodomain PHD finger transcription factor (circBPTF) targeting microRNA (miR)-224-3p on the damage of human retinal vascular endothelial cells (HRECs) induced by high glucose.Methods:HRECs were divided into control group and high glucose group, which were cultured with medium containing 5.5 mmol/L glucose and 30 mmol/L glucose for 48 hours, respectively.HRECs were transfected with siRNA negative control (si-NC), siRNA of circBPTF (si-circBPTF), miRNA mimic control (miR-NC), and miR-224-3p by Lipofectamine 2000, followed by cultured in 30 mmol/L glucose medium for 48 hours and were recorded as si-NC group, si-circBPTF group, miR-NC group and miR-224-3p group, respectively.HRECs were transfected with si-circBPTF and anti-miR-NC or si-circBPTF and anti-miR-224-3p by double transfection method, and then treated with 30 mmol/L glucose medium for 48 hours and were recorded as anti-miR-NC group and anti-miR-224-3p group, respectively.The expression of circBPTF and miR-224-3p was detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR.Cell apoptosis was detected by flow cytometry.Reactive oxygen species (ROS) level was determined by 2′, 7′-dichlorodihydrofluorescein diacetate probe.Superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity and malondialdehyde (MDA) content were detected by colorimetric method.Expression of cleaved-caspase-3/caspase-3 and cleaved-caspase-9/caspase-9 proteins was detected by Western blot.The interaction between circBPTF and miR-224-3p was identified by the dual luciferase reporter method.Results:Compared with the control group, the apoptosis rate, cleaved-caspase-3/caspase-3 protein expression, cleaved-caspase-9/caspase-9 protein expression, ROS level, MDA content, and circBPTF relative expression were significantly increased and SOD activity and miR-224-3p expression were decreased in the high glucose group (all P<0.05).Compared with the si-NC group, circBPTF relative expression, ROS level, MDA content, cleaved-caspase-3/caspase-3 protein expression, cleaved-caspase-9/caspase-9 protein expression, and cell apoptosis rate were significantly reduced and SOD activity was significantly increased in the si-circBPTF group (all P<0.05).Compared with the miR-NC group, miR-224-3p relative expression and SOD activity were significantly enhanced and ROS level, MDA content, cleaved-caspase-3/caspase-3 protein expression, cleaved-caspase-9/caspase-9 protein expression and cell apoptosis rate were significantly reduced in the miR-224-3p group (all P<0.05).The relative luciferase activity of HRECs after co-transfection of wild type circBPTF and miR-224-3p mimic was 0.43±0.04, which was significantly decreased compared with 0.99±0.06 after co-transfection of wild type circBPTF and miR-NC ( t=23.297, P<0.05).Compared with anti-miR-NC group, the relative expression of miR-224-3p and SOD activity were significantly decreased and ROS level, MDA content, cell apoptosis rate, cleaved-caspase-3/caspase-3 protein expression, and cleaved-caspase-9/caspase-9 protein expression were significantly increased in the anti-miR-224-3p group (all P<0.05). Conclusions:Interfering with circBPTF can inhibit high glucose induced HRECs apoptosis and oxidative stress damage by targeting miR-224-3p.

Objective To explore the correlation between cardiac remodeling and the occurrence of contrast-associated acute kidney injury(CA-AKI)assessed by echocardiography.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 100 patients with coronary artery disease(CAD)who underwent coronary angiography(CAG)and percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI)from March 2021 to March 2024.The patients were divided into CA-AKI group and non-CA-AKI group according to whether CA-AKI occurred.Baseline data and echocardiographic parameters,inclu-ding left ventricular end-diastolic internal diameter index(LVIDDI),left ventricular end-systolic in-ternal diameter index(LVIDSI),and left ventricular mass index(LVMI),were collected and com-pared between the two groups.Logistic regression analysis was used to screen for independent influen-cing factors of CA-AKI occurrence.Results The level of N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide(NT-proBNP)in the CA-AKI group was higher than that in the non-CA-AKI group,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.001).Compared with the non-CA-AKI group,the CA-AKI group had higher levels of C-reactive protein and glycosylated hemoglobin(HbA1c),as well as a higher proportion of patients with diabetes and anemia,and the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05).Echocardiographic data showed that LVMI,LVIDDI,and LVIDSI in the CA-AKI group were all higher than those in the non-CA-AKI group,and the differences were statistically sig-nificant(t=2.057,3.429,2.975;P＜0.05).The left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF)level in the CA-AKI group was lower than that in the non-CA-AKI group,and the difference was statisti-cally significant(t=3.005,P=0.003).Univariate Logistic regression analysis showed that diabe-tes,anemia,inflammation,NT-proBNP,HbA1c,LVMI,LVIDDI,LVIDSI,LVEF,ventricular hy-pertrophy,and ventricular dilation were significantly associated with the occurrence of CA-AKI(P＜0.05).Multivariate Logistic regression analysis results showed that LVMI(OR=3.81;95％CI,1.04 to 8.50;P=0.045),LVIDDI(OR=4.21;95％CI,2.02 to 6.08;P＜0.001),LVIDSI(OR=1.61;95％CI,1.27 to 2.03;P=0.024),ventricular hypertrophy(OR=3.42;95％CI,1.83 to 4.44;P=0.001),and ventricular dilation(OR=2.93;95％CI,1.43 to 3.74;P=0.033)were independent influencing factors for the occurrence of CA-AKI.Conclusion Cardiac remodeling is significantly correlated with the risk of CA-AKI in CAD patients.Clinicians should take protective measures timely for patients with abnormal cardiac structure to prevent the occurrence of CA-AKI.
