Objective:To investigate improvement of dexamethasone(DM)treatment after intrauterine adhesion decomposition on uterine fibrosis and inflammatory factors.Methods:A total of 60 patients with moderate to severe intrauterine adhesions admitted to The Reproductive Medicine Center of Jilin Provincial People's Hospital from March 2021 to March 2023 were selected,and divided into experimental group and control group according to random number table method,with 30 cases in each group.Control group under-went simple hysteroscopic adhesion decomposition,and experimental group underwent intrauterine infusion treatment with DM injec-tion after intrauterine adhesion decomposition.Improvement of clinical symptoms in the two groups was observed.RT-qPCR was used to detect changes in mRNA levels of intimal receptivity-related factors ER,EGFR,LIF,ITGB3,HOXA10,HOXA11,fibrosis-related factors TGF-β1,E-cadherin,N-cadherin,Smad,and inflammatory related factors IL-8,IL-2 and CD138 in two groups.Western blot was used to detect changes in expression levels of inflammatory related proteins IL-8,IL-2 and CD138.Results:Compared with before treatment,endometrial thickness,mRNA levels of ER,EGFR,LIF,ITGB3,HOXA10,HOXA11 and E-cadherin were significantly increased,while mRNA levels of TGF-β1,N-cadherin,Smad,IL-8,IL-2 and CD138,protein levels of IL-8,IL-2 and CD138,and endometrial blood flow parameters PI,RI and adhesion were significantly decreased.Eendometrial thickness,mRNA levels of ER,EGFR,LIF,ITGB3,HOXA10,HOXA11 and E-cadherin in experimental group were significantly higher than those in control group,while mRNA levels of IL-8,IL-2,TGF-β1,N-cadherin,Smad,CD138,IL-8,IL-2 and CD138,and endometrial blood flow parameters PI,RI and adhesion were lower than those in control group(P<0.05).Conclusion:Treatment of DM after intrauterine adhe-sion decomposition can improve intrauterine adhesion,blood flow parameters and endometrial receptivity,and prevent the recurrence of intrauterine adhesion,which mechanism may be related to up-regulation of E-cadherin expression and down-regulation of IL-8,IL-2,CD138,TGF-β1,N-cadherin and Smad expressions.

Objective To identify the independent predictors of programmed death-1 (PD-1) inhibitor-related endocrine adverse events and construct a clinically usable risk prediction model. Methods A total of 302 patients with solid tumors treated with PD-1 inhibitors were retrospectively enrolled. According to the presence or absence of endocrine immune-related adverse events (irAEs), the patients were divided into case group and control group. The clinical and laboratory indexes were compared between the two groups. Multivariable logistic regression was used to confirm independent predictors of endocrine irAEs. The nomogram was constructed, while the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to test the prediction performance of the model. Results The overall incidence of endocrine irAEs was 21.9% (66/302), and the incidence of hypothyroidism was 19.5% (59/302). The age, PD-1 inhibitors, free thyroxine, thyroid peroxidase antibody (TPOAb), thyroglobulin, amylase, lymphocyte subset CD3 expression were statistically different between the two groups (P<0.05). Multivariable logistic regression showed that higher expression of lymphocyte subset CD3 was a protective factor to prevent endocrine irAEs occurrence (P=0.004), while age<60 years, higher TPOAb and use of pembrolizumab were independent risk factors of endocrine irAEs (P<0.05). The nomogram model thus constructed, and when the threshold probability of the model exceeded 0.1, its net benefit was higher. ROC curve showed that the AUC of the model to predict endocrine irAEs was 0.760. The prediction result of the model was highly consistent with the actual result. Conclusions The age, type of PD-1 inhibitor, baseline TPOAb level, and baseline CD3 expression can independently predict endocrine irAEs occurrence or not. The nomogram model based on this model has good predictive efficiency, which can provide reference for early identification of high-risk patients and immunotherapy management.

Objective To investigate the prevalence of food intolerance among children in Zhuzhou area and its relationship with age,gender,systemic diseases,and food allergies,so as to provide a basis for the scientific adjustment of children's dietary structure.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on totally 1 592 children who underwent food intolerance and food allergen testing in the hospital,the positive rate and distri-bution of 14 kinds of food intolerance were assessed,and their correlation with various factors was analyzed.Results Among 14 kinds of food tested,milk and eggs had the highest positive rates of intolerance,at 82.22%and 55.78%,respectively.The majority of children were intolerant to 1 to 2 kinds of food,with a de-creasing trend in the number of children intolerant to multiple kinds of food.Among the 14 types of food,ex-cept for mushrooms and pork,there were statistically significant differences in the distribution of negative,mild,moderate,and severe intolerance in other foods(P<0.05).Children tended to have moderate or even se-vere intolerance to milk and eggs,while they tended to have mild intolerance to other foods.There was no sta-tistically significant difference in the overall food intolerance rate between boys and girls(P=0.654),but the positive rate of tomato intolerance in girls was slightly higher than that in boys(P=0.043).Except for pork,there were statistically significant differences in the positive rates of intolerance to 14 different foods among different age groups(P<0.05).The positive rates of intolerance to cod,mushrooms,and crabs increased with age,while the positive rates of intolerance to beef decreased with age.There was a statistically significant difference in the positive rate of milk intolerance between healthy children and children with skin allergies(P<0.05).There was a statistically significant difference in the proportion of individuals who were tolerant and not allergic to milk compared to hose who were intolerant and allergic to milk(P<0.05).There was a statistically significant difference in the proportion of individuals who were tolerant and not allergic to eggs compared to those who were intolerant and allergic to eggs(P<0.05).Conclusion The positive rate of food intolerance among children in Zhuzhou area is relatively high,with milk and eggs being the main intolerant foods.There are differences in the positive rate of intolerance among different gender and age groups,and in-tolerance to milk and eggs is associated with food allergies to some extent.
