Objective To investigate the incidence and severity of symptoms in patients with gastric cancer who received chemotherapy,we constructed a symptom network to explore core symptoms and bridge symptoms.Furthermore,the study explores the association between core symptoms and Traditional Chinese Medicine(TCM)constitutions.Methods Patients with gastric cancer who received chemotherapy in the medical oncology and surgical oncology department from March to August 2023 were selected for the study using a convenience sampling method.The MD Anderson Symptom Inventory Gastrointestinal Cancer was used for evaluating gastrointestinal symptoms and their severity among patients receiving chemotherapy for gastric cancer,as well as assessing the classification of TCM constitution among patients.The symptom network model was constructed using the R programming language,and the central index was analyzed to determine the core symptoms and bridge symptoms.Binary logistic regression analysis was employed to assess the association between different physical conditions and the occurrence of core symptoms.Results A total of 346 electronic questionnaires were collected,with 340 valid ones,and the effective recovery rate was 98.3％.The 3 most prevalent and severe symptoms among the 340 patients with gastric cancer were fatigue(85.59％),lack of appetite(82.35％),and taste alteration(81.18％).The centrality index results indicated that grief exhibited the highest intensity,medium,and compactness centrality values(rs=8.23,rb=2.00,rc=0.03),making it the core symptom of this condition.Sleep disorders,lack of appetite,drowsiness,and taste alteration were identified as bridging symptoms with bridge intensities of 0.74,0.76,0.99,and 0.94 respectively.The results of Spearman correlation analysis showed that there was a positive correlation between sadness and qi-deficiency constitution,phlegm-dampness constitution(P＜0.05).The phlegm-dampness constitution was positively correlated with the taste alterations(P＜0.05).Conclusion In patients with gastric cancer,fatigue emerges as the most prominent symptom,while sadness assumes the core symptom.Additionally,sleep disorder,lack of appetite,drowsiness,and taste alteration are bridge symptoms.According to the principles of TCM constitution,qi-deficiency and phlegm-dampness are constitutions associated with a higher risk of experiencing sadness,and phlegm-dampness is a constitution associated with a higher risk of taste changes.Nurses can integrate core symptoms and TCM constitutions characteristics to optimize the strategies for symptom intervention.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical value of CD4 + T lymphocyte subsets such as helper Th2 in patients with recurrent uveitis (BU) in Beh?et′s disease (BD). Methods:The clinical data of 153 hospitalized patients diagnosed with Beh?et′s disease from January 1, 2020 to June 30, 2023 in the Second Hospital of Shanxi Medical University were retrospectively analyzed. The subsets of CD4 + T lymphocytes were measured, including helper T cells (Th cells) such as Th1, Th2, Th17 and regulatory T cells (Treg cells), biochemical lipid indexes (TC, TG, etc.), the frequency of oral ulcers in the past 1 year, the frequency of genital ulcers in the past 1 year, and drug use before admission;According to whether there was ocular involvement and uveitis, 153 cases of BD were divided into Beh?et non-uveitis group (non-BU group) and Beh?et uveitis group (BU group). The above indexes and independent correlation factors of recurrent BU were compared between BU group and non-BU group;The above indexes and independent correlation factors of recurrent BU were compared between BU group and non-BU group. The levels of cytokines and ICBD total score, the correlation between ICBD total score and various cytokines, and the diagnostic performance of Th2 cells were compared between BU group and non-BU group.The statistical methods were Mann-Whitney U test, independent sample t test, Chi-square test, multiple logistic regression analysis, Pearson correlation analysis and receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) analysis. Results:①The levels of Th1, Th2, Th17 cells, TC and TG in BU group were higher than those in non-BU group [133.87 (93.38, 229.87)/μl vs. 102.51(64.25, 149.23)/μl] and [9.43 (5.84, 14.13)/μl vs. 6.78(4.23, 9.44)/μl], [15.53 (9.36, 25.27)/μl vs. 9.83(5.46, 14.76)/μl], [4.21 (3.89, 4.90) mmol/L vs. 3.89(3.37, 4.34)mmol/L)], [1.43(1.00, 2.21)mmol/L vs. 0.96(0.69, 1.38)mmol/L], The differences were statistically significant ( Z=-3.24, Z=-3.05, Z=-3.94, Z=-2.25, Z=-3.47; all P<0.05); There was no statistical significance in Chi-square test between the two groups ( χ2=5.69, P>0.05).②The levels of IL-2, IL-10 and total ICBD score in BU group were higher than those in non-BU group, with statistical significance ( Z=-2.12, Z=-2.29, t=-6.48; all P<0.05). ③ The results of multiple logistic regression analysis showed that Th2 was an independent correlation factor for BU [ OR value (95% CI) was 1.143(1.007, 1.298), P=0.039]. The total score of BU patients was correlated with Th2 and Th17 cells. ROC analysis showed that the sensitivity of Th2 in diagnosing BU was 68.8%, the specificity was 49.5% and the area under the curve (95% CI) was 0.697 (0.585, 0.809) (P=0.001). Conclusion:CD4 + T lymphocyte subsets such as the absolute number of Th2 cells are related to BU, which is an important indicator to observe the severity of disease progression in BU patients, and has certain clinical value in evaluating the recurrence of BU in BD patients.

Objective To investigate the risk factors and clinical characteristics of asphyxia-related acute kidney injury (AKI) in neonates. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of neonates with asphyxia-related AKI (AKI group, n=100) and asphyxia withont AKI neonates (control group, n=228) admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) of the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from January 2020 to December 2023. Laboratory indicators and clinical data from both groups were collected to analyze the risk factors and clinical characteristics of asphyxia-related AKI in neonates. Results Statistically significant differences were observed in levels of lactate, base excess (BE), serum potassium, serum creatinine, and urea nitrogen between the AKI and control groups (P < 0.05). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis revealed that low 5-minute Apgar score, high lactate level, and hyperglycemia were independent risk factors for asphyxia-related AKI in neonates. The areas under the curve (AUCs) for the 5-minute Apgar score, lactate, and blood glucose in predicting AKI were 0.825(95%CI, 0.767 to 0.882), 0.968(95%CI, 0.942 to 0.993), and 0.845(95%CI, 0.795 to 0.894), respectively. The incidence of maternal hypertension during pregnancy also showed a significant difference between the two groups (P < 0.05). Significant differences were also noted in 1-minute and 5-minute Apgar scores, as well as the incidence of intrauterine distress between the AKI and control groups (P < 0.05). Furthermore, the AKI group exhibited statistically significant differences in respiratory distress syndrome (RDS), respiratory failure, necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC), severe intracranial hemorrhage, pulmonary hemorrhage, use of diuretics, and blood purification etc. compared to the control group (P < 0.05). There were 24 deaths in the AKI group, with 16 cases in AKI stage 3 and 8 cases in AKI stage 2, while only 3 deaths occurred in the control group. The difference in mortality rate between the two groups was statistically significant (P < 0.05). Conclusion Low 5-minute Apgar score, high lactate levels, and hyperglycemia are independent risk factors for AKI in neonates. Neonates with AKI are prone to developing multi-organ dysfunction, and asphyxia-related AKI can increase mortality rates. Therefore, comprehensive prevention and treatment measures are crucial.

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.

We report a case of a 2 200 g premature male baby born through cesarean section under maternal endotracheal intubation mechanical ventilation combined with extracorporeal membrane oxygenation at 34 +1 gestational weeks, while his mother was infected with influenza A in late pregnancy. Due to neonatal pneumonia, neonatal respiratory distress syndrome, prematurity, and low birth weight, the neonate was transferred to the neonatal intensive care unit for body temperature maintenance, respiratory support, maintenance of perfusion and internal environment, and nutritional management. The infant was discharged 17 days after birth and was well at six-month-old follow-up. His mother was discharged at 20 days post-delivery.

Objective: To investigate the current status and real performance of the detection of RUNX1-RUNX1T1 fusion transcript levels and WT1 transcript levels in China through interlaboratory comparison. Methods: Peking University People’s Hospital (PKUPH) prepared the samples for comparison. That is, the fresh RUNX1-RUNX1T1 positive (+) bone morrow nucleated cells were serially diluted with RUNX1-RUNX1T1 negative (-) nucleated cells from different patients. Totally 23 sets with 14 different samples per set were prepared. TRIzol reagent was added in each tube and thoroughly mixed with cells for homogenization. Each laboratory simultaneously tested RUNX1-RUNX1T1 and WT1 transcript levels of one set of samples by real-time quantitative PCR method. All transcript levels were reported as the percentage of RUNX1-RUNX1T1 or WT1 transcript copies/ABL copies. Spearman correlation coefficient between the reported transcript levels of each participated laboratory and those of PKUPH was calculated. Results: ①RUNX1-RUNX1T1 comparison: 9 samples were (+) and 5 were (-) , the false negative and positive rates of the 20 participated laboratories were 0 (0/180) and 5% (5/100) , respectively. The reported transcript levels of all 9 positive samples were different among laboratories. The median reported transcript levels of 9 positive samples were from 0.060% to 176.7%, which covered 3.5-log. The ratios of each sample’s highest to the lowest reported transcript levels were from 5.5 to 12.3 (one result which obviously deviated from other laboratories’ results was not included) , 85% (17/20) of the laboratories had correlation coefficient ≥0.98. ②WT1 comparison: The median reported transcript levels of all 14 samples were from 0.17% to 67.6%, which covered 2.6-log. The ratios of each sample’s highest to the lowest reported transcript levels were from 5.3-13.7, 62% (13/21) of the laboratories had correlation coefficient ≥0.98. ③ The relative relationship of the reported RUNX1-RUNX1T1 transcript levels between the participants and PKUPH was not always consistent with that of WT1 transcript levels. Both RUNX1-RUNX1T1 and WT1 transcript levels from 2 and 7 laboratories were individually lower than and higher than those of PKUPH, whereas for the rest 11 laboratories, one transcript level was higher than and the other was lower than that of PKUPH. Conclusion The reported RUNX1-RUNX1T1 and WT1 transcript levels were different among laboratories for the same sample. Most of the participated laboratories reported highly consistent result with that of PKUPH. The relationship between laboratories of the different transcript levels may not be the same.

Objective To explore the application of paclitaxel or docetaxel combined with cisplatin (TP) with cyclophosphamide,pirirubicin and fluorouracil (FAC) in the primary tumor molecular typing Luminal A,axillary lymph node metastasis three negative breast cancer. Methods From January 2012 to January 2014, the clinical data of forty-nine patients with were selected. All patients were divided into two groups by balance randomization method, TP group and FAC group. Twenty-five patients were treated with TP regimen and 24 patients were treated with FAC regimen. The clinical efficacy was evaluated after six cycles of chemotherapy. Chemotherapy effects,adverse reactions and survival rates of two groups were compared. Results All patients were given intravenous chemotherapy according to the plan and were evaluated for clinical efficacy. The response rate (RR) was 64. 0％ in TP group,including 4 cases of complete remission (CR),12 cases of partial remission (PR),7 cases of stable disease(SD) and 2 cases of progressive disease(PD). The adverse reactions were gastrointestinal reactions and granulocytopenia. The median progression-free survival ( PFS) and overall survival ( OS) were respectively 12. 4 months and 34. 1 months. In FAC group,the response rate ( RR) was 33. 3％,including 2 cases of CR,6 cases of PR,11 cases of SD and 5 cases of PD. The adverse reactions were gastrointestinal reactions,granulocytopenia and premature atrial contraction. The median PFS and OS were 7. 2 months and 20. 7 months respectively. The effective rate of TP group was higher than that of FAC group (χ2=4. 608,P=0. 032),and the progression-free survival time and total survival time were longer than those of FAC group (χ2 =8. 317, 8. 563, P=0. 004, 0. 003 ) . Conclusion Compared to FAC regimen, TP regimen could improve the survival rate of patients better with breast cancer of Primary tumor Luminal A and Axillary Lymph Node Metastasis Triple negative type, and adverse reactions were tolerated, it may be an optimized chemotherapy.

BACKGROUND:Toxic cytarabine is often used to prepare highly purified neurons in experimental studies addressing central nervous system diseases. However, the intervention time of cytarabine is little reported. OBJECTIVE:To determine the optimal intervention time of cytarabine(final concentration 10μmol/L) in primary culture of rat cortical neurons. METHODS:Rat primary cortical neurons were cultured in Neurobasal+B27 medium, and 10μmol/L cytarabine were added at 12, 24, 36 and 48 hours after culture, respectively. Half of the medium were changed every 48 hours. The morphology of neurons was observed under inverted microscope at 7 days. The purity and differentiation of neurons maturity were identified by immunocytochemistry method of neuron specific enolization enzyme staining. Morphometric analysis for all neuron-specific enolase positive cells was performed by Multifunction Computer Image Analysis System. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:After addition of cytarabine at 24 hours of culture, the purity of neurons was more than 90%, well-differentiated cortical neurons accounted for 89.00%, and the area of neuronal body was the largest with the longest synapses. There were more neuron cells with transparent cytoplasm, and large nucleus. The cell body had good refraction and strong stereo sense. The neurons with 3-4 synapses and 3-4 bifurcates formed a good network structure. These results illustrate that although it willbe beneficial for the purity of neurons to add cytarabine early in neuron culture process, it will make obvious effect on neuronal differentiation. The highly purified and well-grown cerebral cortical neurons will be obtained after cultured in neurolbasal medium, which cytarabine is added to at 24 hours of culture.
