OBJECTIVE To assess the safety profile of sintilimab in combination with chemotherapy for the treatment of cholangiocarcinoma. METHODS The data of patients with cholangiocarcinoma from January 1st， 2021 to December 31st， 2022 were collected and divided into control group （29 cases） and observation group （18 cases） based on different medication regimens. Patients in the control group were treated with Gemcitabine hydrochloride for injection+Cisplatin for injection or Oxaliplatin for injection， the observation group was treated with Sintilimab injection based on the control group. Patients in each group underwent blood routine， liver and kidney function， biochemical and other examinations before and after each treatment cycle to observe the occurrence of adverse drug reactions. The correlation of adverse drug reactions with drugs was evaluated with Naranjo’s scale. RESULTS The correlation between blood toxicity and drug use was deemed “probable” in both groups； however， the observation group exhibited a significantly higher score， indicating a stronger correlation. In the control group， hepatotoxic reactions were classified as “suspicious” whereas in the observation group， they were categorized as “probable”. The correlation of gastrointestinal symptoms between the two groups was considered “possible”. Systemic symptoms， skin toxicity， musculoskeletal toxicity， endocrine toxicity and renal toxicity were all classified as having a “suspicious” correlation with drug use. The total incidence of blood toxicity in the observation group was significantly higher than control group （P＝0.014）. There was no statistically significant difference in the total incidences of hepatotoxic， gastrointestinal symptoms， systemic symptoms， skin toxicity， musculoskeletal toxicity， endocrine toxicity， renal toxicity， or the incidence of grade 3 or higher blood toxicity， hepatotoxic between the two groups （P＞0.05）. For the patients experiencing adverse drug reactions， the symptoms were alleviated following drug discontinuation or symptomatic supportive treatment. No fatalities occurred during the treatment period. CONCLUSIONS Sintilimab combined with chemotherapy may significantly increase the risk of blood toxicity in patients with cholangiocarcinoma， especially thrombocytopenia， but the adverse reactions are within a controllable range， and the overall safety is good.

【Objective】 To objectively evaluate the quality control level of blood testing process in blood banks through quantitative monitoring and trend analysis, and to promote the homogenization level and standardized management of blood testing laboratories in blood banks. 【Methods】 A quality monitoring indicator system covering the whole process of blood collection and supply, including blood donation service, blood component preparation, blood testing, blood supply and quality control was established.

Objective Studies on the expression and location of zinc finger protein A20 (A20) and connective tissue growth factor (CTGF) in liver tissues of patients with chronic hepatitis B were conducted, and the relationship between them and liver fibrosis was determined by FibroScan. Methods Studies on A20 and CTGF in liver tissues of 160 patients with chronic hepatitis B were conducted in accordance with the stage of pathological fibrosis and inflammation of the liver, and quantitative immunohistochemistry test was conducted, and statistical analysis was conducted by FibroScan.

Studies have shown that FibroScan increases along with pathological fibrosis and inflammation in the liver. There are significant differences between the stage and the control group (P<0.05), and no significant differences between the adjacent groups (P>0.05). There was positive correlation between liver A20 and CTGF, r=0.796 (P<0.05). Conclusions In patients with chronic hepatitis B, A20, CTGF and FibroScan are positively correlated with the degree of liver fibrosis, and A20 and CTGF are also positively correlated with the degree of liver inflammation, which can be used as indicators to evaluate the degree of liver inflammation and fibrosis, and further guide the anti-inflammatory and anti-fibrosis treatment of patients.

The high intra- and inter-tumor heterogeneity of gastric cancer leads to a great difference in the immunotherapy efficacy and the prognosis among patients. Several biomarkers, including programmed death-ligand 1, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2, the features of tumor microenvironment, the peripheral blood inflammatory markers and Claudin18.2 have predictive value in the immunotherapy efficacy and the prognosis of gastric cancer patients, which might help the clinicians find the potential patients who will benefit from immunotherapy, and achieve the goal of precision medicine.

Objective To investigate the effects of different concentrations of PPF on oxidative stress and apoptosis of PD model cells induced by MPP+.Methods The human neuroblastoma cell SH-SY5Y was induced by 1 mM MPP+ to establish PD cell model.In PPF treatment group,SH-SY5Y cells were stimulated with 10,20,40 and 80 μM PPF for 4 h before MPP+ induction.Cell counting kit-8(CCK-8)was performed to evaluate cell proliferation activity.H2DCF-DA fluorescent probe was used to detect ROS in cells.The levels of MDA and NADPH oxidase were analyzed by the kit.Western blot examined the protein expression of cytochrome c in mitochondria and cytoplasm,as well as the relative expression of Bcl-2,Bax and cleaved caspase-3 in SH-SY5Y cells.Apoptosis rate was analyzed by flow cytometry.Results MPP+ significantly inhibited the proliferation of SH-SY5Y cells(P<0.001),promoted the level of ROS(P<0.001),MDA(P<0.001),NADPH oxidase(P<0.01),cytochrome c in cytoplasm(P<0.01)and induced apoptosis(P<0.001)and the relative expression of pro-apoptosis protein Bax and cleaved caspase-3(P<0.01),reduced cytochrome c protein in mitochondria(P<0.01)and the relative expression of anti-apoptosis protein(P<0.01).PPF pretreatment alleviated the proliferation inhibition,oxidative stress and apoptosis promotion of SH-SY5Y cells induced by MPP+(P<0.001),and the effects of 40 μM and 80 μM on cells were more significant.Conclusion PPF pretreatment can alleviate the oxidative stress of SH-SY5Y cells induced by MMP+ and reduce apoptosis rate.

Cocaine,as a widely abused and highly addictive drug,has a serious impact on the physical and mental health of individuals and carries a certain degree of social harm and economic burden.Acupuncture can assist in the treatment of cocaine addiction with fewer side effects.However,a well-defined mode of stimulation is an important factor in elucidating the various mechanisms by which acupuncture treats disease.This paper summarizes the problems in the mechanism of cocaine addiction,such as different parameters of stimulation,unstable depth of acupuncture,different acupoint selection,and different lengths of acupuncture time.To standardize the intervention measures of acupuncture experiments,it is suggested that in future research,the stimulation method should explore the best parameters,the selection of acupoints should be based on clinical practice,the timing of acupuncture should be objective,and the treatment course should consider the effects of acupuncture.

Gastrointestinal graft versus host disease is one of the most severe complications after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, which can occur in patients of any age groups. Its clinical manifestations include nausea, vomit, abdominal pain, diarrhea and the like. Severe gastrointestinal graft versus host disease could directly influence the patients' clinical prognosis and therapeutic efficacy of transplantation. Here we had a review of the research progress on nutritional support and diet management strategies for gastrointestinal graft versus host disease. It is of great clinical significance to form a step-wise nutritional support model to reduce the risk of malnutrition in patients with gastrointestinal graft versus host disease, which would contribute to improving patients' general condition, relieving digestive tract symptoms, and reducing the risk of complications.
