Objective:To explore the early diagnostic value of combined detection of serum chitinase protein 40 (YKL-40), galectin-3 (Gal-3), and regulated upon activation normal T cell expressed and secreted (RANTES) for refractory mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia (RMPP) in children.Methods:One hundred and twenty-six children with RMPP (RMPP group), 126 children with global mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia (GMPP) (GMPP group), and 126 healthy children who underwent physical check up (control group) in the Affiliated Hospital of Jining Medical College from June 2022 to June 2024 were retrospectively selected. The serum levels of YKL-40, Gal-3 and RANTES were compared. Multivariate Logistic regression was used to analyze the independent influencing factors of RMPP. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to analyze the diagnostic value of serum YKL-40, Gal-3 and RANTES levels for RMPP.Results:Compared with the control group, the serum YKL-40, Gal-3 and RANTES levels in the RMPP and GMPP groups were obviously higher: (42.19 ± 4.94) and (37.68 ± 4.25) μg/L vs. (26.73 ± 3.31) μg/L, (12.24 ± 2.89) and (8.87 ± 2.56) ng/L vs. (3.92 ± 1.27) ng/L, (33.82 ± 3.86) and (29.28 ± 3.72) μg/L vs. (21.34 ± 2.79) μg/L, with statistical significance ( P<0.05). Compared with the GMPP group, the serum YKL-40, Gal-3 and RANTES levels in the RMPP group were obviously higher ( P<0.05). Compared with the GMPP group, there was no statistically obvious difference in age, gender, body weight, duration of fever and atelectasis in the RMPP group ( P>0.05), however, the levels of C-reactive protein (CRP), procalcitonin (PCT), and the proportions of pleural effusion and lung consolidation were obviously higher in the RMPP group: (22.45 ± 4.21) mg/L vs. (18.69 ± 3.56) mg/L, (0.18 ± 0.04) μg/L vs. (0.15 ± 0.03) μg/L, 31.75% (40/126) vs. 17.46% (22/126), 38.89% (49/126) vs. 25.40% (32/126), P<0.05. CRP, PCT, pleural effusion, pulmonary consolidation, YKL-40, Gal-3 and RANTES were all independent influencing factors of RMPP ( P<0.05). The areas under the curve (AUC) of serum YKL-40, Gal-3 and RANTES levels for diagnosing RMPP in children were 0.769, 0.833 and 0.825, respectively. The AUC of the combined diagnosis of YKL-40, Gal-3 and RANTES was 0.923, which was obviously higher than that of the single indicator diagnosis ( Z = 5.373, 3.677 and 4.191; P<0.01). The sensitivity of the three combined diagnosis was 73.81%, and the specificity was 92.86%. Conclusions:Serum YKL-40, Gal-3 and RANTES levels are obviously elevated in patients with RMPP, and all of which are influencing factors of RMPP. The combination of the three has high diagnostic value for RMPP.

Objective:To systematically evaluate the correlation between chronic periodontitis and postmenopausal osteoporosis (PMOP).Methods:Electronic searches were conducted on Cochrane Library, Pubmed, Embase, Ovid, CNKI, CBM, VIP, and WF databases to collect research literature on the correlation between chronic periodontitis and PMOP. The Newcastle Ottawa Scale (NOS) criteria were used to evaluate the quality of the included literature, and RevMan 5.3 software was used for meta-analysis. The outcome measures were clinical attachment loss (CAL), probing depth (PD), plaque index (PI), calculus index (CI), bleeding on probing (BOP), and simplified oral hygiene index (OHI-S).Results:A total of 16 articles were included, with a total of 1587 patients. Compared with the postmenopausal non osteoporosis group, the osteoporosis group showed significant abnormalities in CAL [standardized mean difference (SMD)=1.09, 95% CI: 0.62-1.57, P<0.001], PD(SMD=0.71, 95% CI: 0.28-1.14, P<0.001), PI(SMD=0.43, 95% CI: 0.29-0.56, P<0.001), and OHI-S(SMD=0.28, 95% CI: 0.22-0.35, P<0.001) indicators, as well as in BOP(SMD=0.01, 95% CI: -0.48-0.49, P=0.97) and GI(SMD=0.01, 95% CI: -0.48-0.49, P=0.97). At the level of 0.24 and 95% CI: -0.34 to 0.81, P=0.42, there was no statistically significant difference. Conclusions:Women with PMOP exhibit more significant changes in indicators such as CAL, PD, PI, and OHI-S, suggesting that postmenopausal women with osteoporosis are more likely to suffer from periodontitis.

ObjectiveTo investigate the feasibility of apical sodium-dependent bile salt transporter (ASBT) and asialoglycoprotein receptor (ASGPR) in the design of oral liver-targeting preparations for the treatment of hepatic alveolar echinococcosis (HAE) by measuring the expression of ASBT and ASGPR. MethodsA total of 18 male Sprague-Dawley rats were selected, among which 10 were used to establish a model of HAE (HAE group) and 8 were used as controls (normal group). Immunofluorescence assay, Western blotting, and quantitative real-time PCR were used to measure the expression distribution, protein expression level, and mRNA expression level of ASBT in the ileal tissue of HAE model rats and normal rats; the same methods were used to measure the expression level of ASGPR in the non-diseased liver tissue and the marginal zone of liver tissue lesion of HAE model rats and the liver tissue of normal rats. The t-test was used for comparison of normally distributed continuous data between two groups; a one-way analysis of variance was used for comparison between three groups, and the least significant difference t-test was used for comparison between two groups. ResultsThe results of immunofluorescence assay, Western blotting, and quantitative real-time PCR showed that compared with the normal group, the HAE group had significantly upregulated expression of ASBT in the ileal tissue (t=5309, 4.110, and 28.060, all P<0.05) and a significantly higher expression level of ASGPR (the closer to the lesion, the higher the expression) (F=110666, 128.201, and 143.879, all P<0.001). ConclusionASBT and ASGPR can be used as potential mediated receptors for oral liver-targeting preparations for HAE, which provides a theoretical basis for the design of oral liver-targeting preparations for the treatment of HAE.

Objective:To understand the content of fluorine in tea leachate in Shijiazhuang City.Methods:From 2017 to 2019, different varieties of tea (including 7 varieties of green tea, scented tea, dark tea, oolong tea, black tea, white tea, and yellow tea) with high sales volume were purchased at the Shijiazhuang Tea Market. The fluoride content in tea was determined by fluoride ion selective electrode method through different soaking time (5, 10, 15, 20 min) and soaking times (1, 2, 3 times).Results:A total of 82 tea samples were detected, including 25 kinds of green tea (30.49%), 5 kinds of scented tea (6.10%), 11 kinds of dark tea (13.41%), 17 kinds of oolong tea (20.73%), 15 kinds of black tea (18.29%), 7 kinds of white tea (8.54%) and 2 kinds of yellow tea (2.44%). After soaking for 20 min, the fluorine contents in tea leachate of green tea, oolong tea, black tea, and dark tea (40.63, 65.43, 26.39, 58.90 mg/kg) were significantly higher than those in 5 min(23.09, 32.24, 15.77, 32.00 mg/kg, P < 0.05). Taking the fluorine content of the tea leachate soaking for 20 min as the total fluorine content, oolong tea was the highest, with a median of 65.43 mg/kg; black tea was the lowest, with a median of 26.39 mg/kg; The fluorine contents of oolong tea, dark tea and scented tea were significantly higher than that of black tea( P < 0.05). With the increase of soaking times of green tea, oolong tea, black tea, dark tea and white tea, the fluorine contents in tea leachate decreased significantly ( P < 0.05). Conclusions:In this study, the content of fluorine in the oolong tea is the highest, and the lowest is black tea. It is suggested that local residents in Shijiazhuang should drink black tea.

At present, there are many monitoring devices for vital signs parameters for clinical selection, but urine monitoring has not received enough attention. The traditional manual visual measurement, intermittent measurement of urine pH value, and other methods are still in use, so the authors designed a multifunctional urine bag. The urine bag can set up an alarm system per unit time according to patient′s age and condition as well as set up urine pH value detection area in hard plastic measuring bottle. This device can not only accurately monitor urine volume per unit time, but also hopefully realize the alarm automation of abnormal urine volume per unit time, as well as real-time dynamic monitoring of urine pH value. It is helpful for medical staff to make accurate judgment on patients′ condition changes, to guide the formulation and modification of clinical treatment plans, and to reduce the workload of clinical nursing staff to a certain extent.
