ABSTRACT Taste is an important factor influencing the efficacy of oral formulations and patient compliance. Children have unique pathological and physiological characteristics and poor tolerance to adverse taste, which leads to inaccurate dosing and high risk of medication administration. Therefore, the establishment of an objective and scientific taste evaluation method is an important part of the research and development of drugs for children, which has important clinical significance and scientific value. This research group organized experts in the field of taste design and evaluation of pediatric drugs from five dimensions: instrumentation, research and development, clinical, review, and regulation, to clarify the current situation, discuss problems, and propose strategies for improvement, so as to provide reference for the development of suitable oral formulations for children.

In order to explore the treatment of Her-2 positive breast cancer patients who failed in multi-line treatments, we retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of a patient with refractory Her-2 positive breast cancer.The patient was initially diagnosed as Her-2 positive advanced breast cancer.After six line treatment in the outer hospital, the patient′s condition was basically in a progressive state.The breast tumor was broken and purulent, the lung metastasis increased, and the patient′s quality of life was poor.The patient was admitted to Department of Breast Surgery of Affiliated Suqian Hospital of Xuzhou Medical University, after MDT discussion, we gave pyrrolotinib combined with capecitabine treatment, the chest wound healed gradually, the lung metastasis gradually reduced, and the quality of life was better.A retrospective analysis of this case showed that pyrrolidine combined with capecitabine may bring hope to Her-2 positive breast cancer patients who failed to receive multi-line therapies, especially those who failed to target therapy.

Objective:To investigate the current status of multi-drug use in elderly inpatients with multiple chronic conditions in internal medicine and its correlation with nursing risk events, and to put forward targeted suggestions to help manage clinical multiple drug use in elderly patients.Methods:Using the convenient sampling method, a total of 2 254 elderly inpatients in Department of Internal Medicine in 4 Class Ⅲ Grade A general hospitals in Sichuan province were selected to conduct a questionnaire survey from March 2020 to January 2021, and their general conditions, multiple chronic conditions and multiple drug use were analyzed. Single factor and binary Logistic regression were used to analyze the current situation of multiple drug use in elderly patients with chronic disease and its influence on nursing risk events.Results:There were statistically significant differences in patients with different ages, weights, education levels, personal income, medical payment methods, whether they were weak or not, and whether patients with multiple chronic conditions took multiple drugs ( P<0.05) . Logistic regression analysis showed that education level and the number of chronic diseases were independent risk factors for multiple drug use ( P<0.05) . There were statistically significant differences in the total number of nursing risk events and the occurrence of pressure injuries, deep vein thrombosis and cardiac arrest in patients with multiple medications ( P<0.05) . In the same state of multimorbidity, the nursing risk events of patients with multiple drug use increased. In patients with the same multiple medications, the incidence of patient nursing risk events with an increase in the number of multimorbidities showed a downward trend. Conclusions:Elderly patients with a high education level, a large number of chronic diseases and aged 65-74 years old should pay special attention to whether they have multiple drug use behaviors. In the future, it is necessary to actively popularize the knowledge of rational drug use, actively prevent the occurrence of chronic diseases, strengthen the cooperation of drug management teams and comprehensively consider treatment options in multiple specialties, so as to fundamentally reduce multiple drug use.

Objective:The hvKP phenotype strains were screened from the sensitive and multi-drug resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae, and the distribution and homology of their clinical infection characteristics were compared. Methods:A total of 158 Klebsiella pneumoniae strains isolated from clinical infection specimens in the Third Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University from 2014 to 2018 were retrospectively collected. The string test (ST) was used to screen the hvKP infection, and a total of 65 were screened. The number of patients included 51 males and 14 females, with an average age of 56 years. The composition ratio of Klebsiellapneumoniae was analyzed for clinical infection related information. Matrix assisted laser desorption-ionization time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) was used to identify the hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae and establish a new database, and bio-tree cluster analysis and principal component analysis were carried out for all strains that met the experimental conditions by using analysis software and the homology of protein level was obtained. Results:A total of 65 strains hvKP were screened, 62 of which were susceptible strains and 3 were multi-drug resistant strains. The main diseases of infected patients were diagnosed as hepatobiliary disease, encephalopathy and liver abscess. The basic diseases of the population were mainly diabetes and hypertension. Dendrogram cluster analysis divided hvKP into 3 groups at a distance of 550 from the horizontal line; principal component analysis found that some strains were closely related, and the Kc group with the largest proportion was mainly related to hepatobiliary diseases. Ka group was mainly related to infection after surgery.Conclusions:HvKP was highly invasive and the clinical manifestations of infection were diverse. The infected patients were mostly elderly patients with weakened immunity. The rapid homology analysis of MALDI-TOF MS mass spectrometry has important clinical significance for the rapid screening of hvKP infection.

Objective:To explore the correlation of serum neurogenic exosome MicroRNA-211-5p(miR-211-5p)levels and brain derived neurotrophic factor(BDNF)levels with cognitive impairment in patients with Parkinson's disease and their diagnostic value.Methods:A total of 80 patients with Parkinson's disease(PD)admitted to the Second Hospital of Jiaxing City from January 2017 to April 2018 were enrolled.According to the Montreal cognitive assessment scale, patients were divided into the cognitive impairment group(n=36)and the non-cognitive impairment group(n=44). Meanwhile, 30 healthy people who took health check-ups during the same period were selected as the control group.Exosomes were extracted from peripheral blood of subjects by using the ExoQuick kit, and the neurogenic exosomes were separated by an L1 cell adhesion molecule(L1CAM)biotinylated antibody.BDNF levels in the exosomes were measured with an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA), and the expression level of miR-211-5p in the exosome was determined by real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR(RT-QPCR).Results:There was a correlation between BDNF and miR-211-5p( r=-0.805, P<0.001)in serum neurogenic exosomes( r=-0.805, P<0.001). BDNF was correlated with miR-211-5p in both the PD and control groups( r=-0.785 and-0.867, P=0.002 and 0.001). The miR-211-5p level was higher and the BDNF level was lower in the PD group than in the control group(0.30±0.08 vs. 0.17±0.04, 0.55±0.06 mg/L vs. 0.75±0.06 mg/L, t=7.125 and 6.368, P=0.000 and 0.000). The BDNF level was lower(0.45±0.07 mg/L vs.0.63±0.07 6.368 and 0.75±0.08 mg/L, t=8.999 and 7.608, P=0.000 and 0.000)and the MiR-211-5p level was higher(0.36±0.07 vs. 0.24±0.05 and 0.17±0.04, t=10.923 and 7.520, P=0.000 and 0.000)in the cognitive impairment group than in the non-cognitive impairment and control groups.The receiver-operating characteristics(ROC)curve showed that the area under the curve of miR-211-5p as a measure for cognitive impairment in Parkinson's disease was 0.860(95% CI: 0.770-0.950)with a threshold of 0.32.The area under the curve of BDNF as a measure for cognitive impairment in Parkinson's disease was 0.891(95% CI: 0.822-0.961)with a threshold of 0.67.BDNF seemed to be the target gene of miR-211-5p, since the latter could inhibit BDNF expression by reducing BDNF mRNA levels. Conclusions:Human serum neurogenic exosome miR-211-5p is highly expressed in PD patients with cognitive impairment and has the potential to be used as one of diagnostic parameters for cognitive impairment in PD patients.The high expression of serum neurogenic exosome miR-211-5p may be related to the inhibition of BDNF by reducing its mRNA levels.

This study aimed to obtain the first national estimate of the prevalence of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) in Chinese children. We targeted the population of 6 to 12-year-old children for this prevalence study by multistage convenient cluster sampling. The Modified Chinese Autism Spectrum Rating Scale was used for the screening process. Of the target population of 142,086 children, 88.5% (n = 125,806) participated in the study. A total of 363 children were confirmed as having ASD. The observed ASD prevalence rate was 0.29% (95% CI: 0.26%-0.32%) for the overall population. After adjustment for response rates, the estimated number of ASD cases was 867 in the target population sample, thereby achieving an estimated prevalence of 0.70% (95% CI: 0.64%-0.74%). The prevalence was significantly higher in boys than in girls (0.95%; 95% CI: 0.87%-1.02% versus 0.30%; 95% CI: 0.26%-0.34%; P < 0.001). Of the 363 confirmed ASD cases, 43.3% were newly diagnosed, and most of those (90.4%) were attending regular schools, and 68.8% of the children with ASD had at least one neuropsychiatric comorbidity. Our findings provide reliable data on the estimated ASD prevalence and comorbidities in Chinese children.

Objective: To determine the levels of vitamin D in patients with pulmonary tuberculosis in Shenzhen and identify the influencing factors of vitamin D levels and key groups of vitamin D deficiency, so as to provide a scientific basis for tuberculosis- and nutrition-related health education and promotion in Shenzhen. Methods: Patients with smear-positive pulmonary tuberculosis who were diagnosed in 2016 were selected as the research subjects. Their relevant information and blood samples were collected, and the sample pool was established according to the inclusion criteria. One hundred and twenty patients were selected based on simple random sampling, including 84 men (70.0%) and 36 women (30.0%). Blood 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] concentrations were measured using chemiluminescence technology. Vitamin D statuses in patients were statistically described, and vitamin D levels in patients with different characteristics were compared. Multivariate linear regression analysis was performed to identify important factors influencing vitamin D levels in patients. Results: Mean serum concentration of 25(OH)D in 120 patients was (40.2±16.0) nmol/L. There were 2 cases of vitamin D sufficiency (1.7%), 28 cases of vitamin D insufficiency (23.3%), and 90 cases of vitamin D deficiency (75.0%), of which 23 cases (19.2%) were of severe deficiency. 25(OH)D concentrations in patients with different lifestyles (indoors; indistinguishable indoors or outdoors; outdoors) were significantly different (35.3 nmol/L vs. 40.6 nmol/L vs. 49.5 nmol/L, F=8.274, P<0.001). Mean concentration of 25(OH)D in patients with sun exposure time of >30 min/d was higher compared to that in those with sun exposure time <30 min/d in the last month (46.4 nmol/L vs. 36.7 nmol/L, t=3.342, P=0.001). Multivariate linear regression analysis showed that the risk factors for 25(OH)D with statistical significance were Han ethnicity or not (β=-11.576, t=-1.991, P=0.049), housekeeping (including unemployment and retirement) or not (β=-6.136, t=-1.998, P=0.048), sun exposure time<30 min/d or none (β=-9.644, t=-2.829, P=0.006), body mass index (β=-2.056, t=-3.439, P=0.001) , and indoor degree of lifestyles (β=-4.419, t=-2.155, P=0.033). Conclusion Level of vitamin D is generally insufficient in patients with pulmonary tuberculosis in Shenzhen. It is necessary to strengthen health education related to vitamin D in patients with tuberculosis, especially in the high-risk population of vitamin D deficiency, such as in those with a lack of exposure to sunlight or high BMI.
