ObjectiveTo investigate vitamin D level in children with cholestatic liver disease， and to provide a theoretical basis for vitamin D supplementation therapy in children with this disease. MethodsA total of 116 children with cholestatic liver disease who attended Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine， Beijing Children’s Hospital， Capital Medical University， for the first time from January 2022 to January 2024 were enrolled and divided into groups for comparison based on sex， age， vitamin D supplementation dose， course of the disease， and etiology. The data on the serum level of 25-hydroxyvitamin D （25-OH-D） and related biochemical parameters were collected to assess the correlation between vitamin D level and biochemical parameters. The chi-square test or the Fisher’s exact test was used for comparison of categorical data between groups， and the Spearman rank correlation test was used for correlation analysis. ResultsAmong the 116 children， 76 （65.5%） had vitamin D deficiency or insufficiency. The children with vitamin D deficiency or insufficiency accounted for 65.7% （46/70） among boys and 65.2% （30/46） among girls， with no significant difference between boys and girls （χ²=0.003， P=0.956）. The children with vitamin D deficiency or insufficiency accounted for 83.3% （25/30） among the children who had never received vitamin D supplementation， 58.7% （27/46） among the children with a daily supplementation dose of 500 IU， 64.3% （18/28） among the children with a daily supplementation dose of 700 IU， and 50.0% （6/12） among the children with a daily supplementation dose of>700 IU， and there was no significant difference between these groups （χ²=6.460， P=0.091）. Comparison between the groups with different etiologies showed that the children with vitamin D deficiency or insufficiency accounted for 57.7% （15/26） in the infectious disease group， 66.7% （10/15） in the inherited metabolic disease group， 66.7% （6/9） in the drug-induced liver injury group， 100.0% （8/8） in the group with abnormal structure of the biliary system， and 63.8% （37/58） in the group with unknown etiology， and there was no significant difference between these groups （χ²=5.304， P=0.252）. Comparison between the groups with different courses of the disease showed that the children with vitamin D deficiency or insufficiency accounted for 78.4% （29/37） in the<1 month group， 54.3% （25/46） in the 1‍ — ‍3 months group， 53.3% （8/15） in the 3‍ — ‍6 months group， and 77.8% （14/18） in the>6 months group， with no significant difference between these groups （χ²=7.432， P=0.059）. Comparison between different age groups showed that compared with the infant group， the children group had a significantly higher proportion of children with vitamin D deficiency or insufficiency （χ²=9.504， P=0.018）. The correlation analysis showed that serum aspartate aminotransferase and alanine aminotransferase had no significant correlation with 25-OH-D （P>0.05）； serum alkaline phosphatase （ALP） （r=-0.286， P=0.002）， gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase （GGT） （r=-0.248， P=0.007）， total bilirubin （TBil） （r=-0.353， P<0.001）， direct bilirubin （DBil） （r=-0.299， P=0.001）， and total bile acid （r=-0.236， P=0.011） were negatively correlated with 25-OH-D， while serum calcium （r=0.263， P=0.004） and phosphorus （r=0.385， P<0.001） were positively correlated with 25-OH-D. ConclusionMost children with cholestatic liver disease have vitamin D deficiency or insufficiency， and the increase in serum ALP， GGT， TBil， DBil or total bile acid and the reduction in calcium or phosphorus may suggest vitamin D deficiency or insufficiency.

OBJECTIVE To explore the relationship between severe cardiotoxicity caused by oxaliplatin combined with capecitabine and genetic polymorphism， thereby providing references for safe clinical medication use. METHODS Clinical pharmacists conducted a correlation analysis on a case of severe cardiotoxicity in a rectal cancer patient at Qilu Hospital of Shandong University following first-time treatment with standard doses of oxaliplatin combined with capecitabine. Case reports of cardiotoxicity caused by oxaliplatin and capecitabine were retrieved from the Chinese and English databases such as CNKI and PubMed.Basic patient information， drug treatment plan， and cardiotoxic manifestations were extracted and summarized. Combined with the patient’s genetic polymorphism test results related to the metabolism and excretion of platinum-based and fluorouracil drugs， potential mechanisms and prevention strategies for cardiotoxicity induced by oxaliplatin and capecitabine were discussed. RESULTS The patient exhibited homozygous mutations in ABCB1 C3435T and G2677T/A， a heterozygous mutation in MTHFR A1298C， and a heterozygous mutation in GSTP1 A105G， indicating impaired metabolism and excretion of oxaliplatin and capecitabine. The pharmacists recommended discontinuing oxaliplatin and reducing capecitabine to 50% of the original dose for subsequent treatment. The physicians adopted this advice， and the patient experienced no further severe adverse reactions with stable disease progression. CONCLUSIONS Oxaliplatin and capecitabine may cause severe cardiotoxicity. Medical institutions with adequate resources should perform genetic polymorphism test related to drug metabolism and excretion in patients prescribed these agents. For patients with multiple gene mutations， close monitoring and appropriate dose reductions are recommended to ensure medication safety and efficacy.

Objective:To explore the dual mediating effects of health belief and depression among health knowledge, social support, and health behaviors based on the capacity, opportunity, motivation-behavior (COM-B) model, and analyze the influencing factors of health behaviors in patients with ischemic stroke.Methods:This multi-center cluster sampling research recruited ischemic stroke patients ( n=1 696) who were hospitalized in neurology departments of five tertiary hospitals in Henan Province from October 2023 to October 2024. A cross-sectional investigation was conducted using the general information questionnaire, social support rating scale (SSRS), stroke prevention knowledge questionnaire(SPKQ), short form health belief model scale(SF-HBMS), health promoting lifestyle profile-Ⅱ (HPLP-Ⅱ), and patient health questionnaire-9(PHQ-9) to ultimately reveal the pathways and effect sizes among variables. Partial correlation analysis and multiple linear stepwise regression analysis were conducted to examine the relationships among social support, health knowledge, health belief, health behaviors, and depression in stroke patients by SPSS 26.0 software. Structural equation modeling was constructed using AMOS 28.0 software, and the mediating effect was tested using the Bootstrap method. Results:The scores of social support, health knowledge, health belief, and health behaviors among ischemic stroke patients were (37.46±9.94), (26.56±6.84), (75.62±12.62) and (130.79±26.27), respectively. The score of depression was 5.00 (2.00, 8.00). Health behaviors were positively correlated with health knowledge, social support, and health belief( r=0.333, 0.246, 0.267, all P<0.05), while negatively correlated with depression ( r=-0.146, P<0.05). Multiple linear stepwise regression analysis showed that health knowledge, social support, health belief, and depression were all influencing factors of health behaviors in ischemic stroke patients (all P<0.05). Health belief (effect value=0.068, 95% CI=0.048-0.093) and depression (effect value=0.009, 95% CI=0.003-0.018) both played partial mediating roles between health knowledge and health behaviors, accounting for 17.3%(0.077/0.446) of the total effect. Meanwhile, health belief (effect value=0.045, 95% CI=0.029-0.063) and depression (effect value=0.016, 95% CI=0.008-0.027) both played partial mediating roles between social support and health behaviors, accounting for 26.5%(0.061/0.230) of the total effect. Conclusion:Health knowledge and social support can not only directly influence health behaviors but also indirectly affect them through health belief and depression in patients with ischemic stroke.

Objective:To investigate the characteristics of gut microbiota distribution in children with cyclic vomiting syndrome（CVS）complicated by constipation.Methods:The children with CVS, aged from 1 to 16 years, who were admitted to Beijing Tsinghua Changgung Hospital from June 2022 to January 2024, were divided into constipation group and normal group(non-constipation group) according to whether they were complicated with constipation or not.The clinical data and stool samples of children were collect. The abundance, diversity and composition of intestinal flora in fecal samples of two groups were detected by metagenomics sequencing.Results:A total of 20 children with CVS were collected, including 10 patients in constipation group and 10 patients in normal group.There were no significant differences in general demographic data between the two groups, including age at admission, age at first onset, body mass index, gender distribution, disease severity, endoscopic findings, and abdominal pain patterns.Microbiome analysis yielded 470 operational taxonomic units (OTUs), with 414 OTUs identified in normal group and 56 OTUs in constipation group. The abundance and diversity of intestinal flora in constipation group were significantly lower than those in normal group. Principal coordinate analysis and principal component analysis indicated significant structural differences in gut microbiota composition between the two groups. LEfSe analysis revealed distinct taxonomic patterns between the two groups, with the normal group demonstrating predominant representation of Firmicutes at the phylum level, while the constipation group showed higher relative abundance of Bacteroidetes and Actinobacteria. KEGG pathway analysis revealed that the carbon metabolism pathways was significantly enriched in the constipation group.Conclusion:There are significant differences in intestinal flora between CVS children with and without comorbid constipation.Bacteroides and Actinomycetes play an important role in constipation of children with CVS. The diversity and metabolic function of intestinal flora may be one of the pathological mechanisms of CVS complicated with constipation.

Objective:To investigate and analyze the thyroid examination results and influencing factors of interventional radiation workers in Tianjin.Methods:In February 2023, A convenient sampling method was used to select the staff engaged in interventional radiation work in an occupational health inspection institution in Tianjin from 2020 to 2022 as the study object. After excluding the incomplete data, 1080 people were included, and 363 medical staff with non-radiological work during the same period were included as the control group. To analyze the individual doses and occupational health examination data of interventional radiation workers, and to analyze the possible influencing factors of thyroid abnormalities.Results:The cumulative dose M ( Q1, Q3) of interventional radiation workers was 1.039 (0.528, 1.905) mSv. The levels of FT 3 and FT 4 in the intervention group were higher than those in the control group, while TSH levels were lower than those in the control group ( Z=4.84、6.03、-5.82, P<0.05). The levels of FT 3 and FT 4 in female interventional radiation workers were lower than those in males, while the levels of TSH were higher than those in males ( Z= -17.54、-6.65、3.61, P<0.05). There were statistically significant differences in FT 3 levels among different ages, differen tradiation exposure years, different initial age of exposure to radiation, and different cumulative doses ( H=47.22、11.33、16.70, Z=-2.48, P<0.05). There were statistically significant differences in thyroid ultrasound abnormalities among different genders, different ages, different initial age of exposure to radiation, and different cumulative doses ( χ2=28.02、61.12、17.87、11.30, P<0.05). The results of logistic regression analysis showed that the influencing factors of FT 3 distributed in the low-level group were female ( OR=10.53, 95% CI: 7.66-14.47, P<0.05), and age 40-49, ≥50 years old ( OR=2.40, 95% CI: 1.12-5.14 OR=3.79, 95% CI: 1.59-9.03, P<0.05). The influencing factors of thyroid ultrasound abnormalities were female ( OR=1.92, 95% CI: 1.48-2.50, P<0.05) and age ≥50 years old ( OR=3.93, 95% CI: 1.91-8.09, P<0.05) . Conclusion:Long term low dose ionizing radiation has a certain effect on FT 3, FT 4 and TSH levels of interventional radiation workers. Gender and increased age are possible influencing factors of the decreased FT 3 levels and thyroid ultrasound abnormalities.

The accuracy of medical imaging diagnosis will directly impact the clinical forensic evaluation's scientific validity and objectivity.This study systematically analyzed the primary causes of misdiagnosis and missed diagnosis in imaging examinations,focusing on representative cases,including rib fractures,traumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage,joint injuries with ligament damage,nasal fractures,congenital skeletal variations,and epiphyseal injuries.Key contributing factors encompassed limitation of imaging technologies,the insufficient interpretive experience of examiners,the complexity of injury mechanisms,and inadequate post-traumatic dynamic imaging follow-up.To address these issues,improvement strategies are proposed,which were establishing standardized imaging review protocols,implementing multimodal imaging approaches,rigorous evaluation of original imaging data,and enhancing professional knowledge regarding anatomical variations and injury differentiation.These measures aim to elevate the quality of forensic imaging diagnosis,providing more precise and reliable strategies for forensic clinical identifications.

Objective:To explore the clinical and genetic characteristics of X-linked intellectual disability associated with HUWE1 gene variants.Methods:A cases series study retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 6 children with HUWE1 gene variants. The children were identified from the Third Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University, the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University, the First Affiliated Hospital of Henan University of Chinese Medicine, and Guangzhou Women and Children′s Medical Center of Guangzhou Medical University between April 2021 and July 2023.The data included sex, age, dysmorphic features, intellectual and motor development, seizure history, neuroimaging findings, family history, and genetic results was analyzed.Results:A total of 6 children, including 5 boys and 1 girl. The age of onset ranged from 1 day to 3 years. All children presented with varying degrees of intellectual disability, with or without motor developmental delay. Dysmorphic features were observed in 4 children, including microcephaly in 3 children. Short stature were observed in 3 children. One child was diagnosed with autism spectrum disorders and 1 child had seizures. Two boys had relevant maternal family histories of febrile seizures and mild intellectual disability, respectively. Abnormal neuroimaging findings were presented in 4 children, including cerebral dysplasia (1 child), prominent supratentorial ventricles (1 child), and mild white matter demyelination (2 children). Whole-exome sequencing identified 5 missense variants and 1 in-frame deletion variant. Five variants were novel and previously unreported (c.12290C>T, c.12701T>C, c.9875C>T, c.9641A>T and c.10313_10315del). The variants in 4 boys were maternally inherited, while the remaining 2 children had de novo variants. The child with the in-frame deletion variant (c.10313_10315del) presented with the most severe phenotype, exhibiting symptoms from 1 day of age, absent cognitive development, feeding difficulties, and congenital laryngeal chondrodysplasia. He was lost to follow-up at 3 months of age after treatment was withdrawn. The age at the last follow-up for the remaining 5 children ranged from 2 years and 10 months to 17 years. A boy with seizures died at 2 years and 10 months of age. The remaining 4 children were able to walk independently at the last follow-up, although their developmental progress was slow. Conclusions:HUWE1 gene related X-linked intellectual disability is characterized by varying degrees of developmental delay and intellectual disability, frequently accompanied by microcephaly, short stature, and occasionally by seizures and autism spectrum disorders. Missense variants are more common and the in-frame deletion variant appears to be associated with a particularly severe phenotypic presentation.

Radionuclides can be hazardous by absorbed through the skin, respiratory and digestive tracts. Chelating agents and adsorbents already could effectively remove them, however traditional chelators have side effects such as nephrotoxicity, teratogenicity, and embryotoxicity. As a new type of nuclide adsorbent, polysaccharide has the advantages of safety, biocompatibility, and high clearance rate. In this paper, the main types and perniciousness of radionuclides, and the latest research of polysaccharides in radionuclide removal were summarized. The application of polysaccharide as an effective adsorption molecule for radio nuclides in nuclear wars, nuclear accidents and other sudden nuclear events is promising.
