[Objective] To investigate the differences in metabolomics between apheresis platelets stored at 4℃ and at 22℃ with agitation, aiming to provide a theoretical basis for the cold storage of apheresis platelets. [Methods] Samples were collected at four time points (d1, d5, d10, d15) for platelets stored at 4℃ (experimental group) and two time points (d1, d5) for platelets stored at 22℃ with agitation (control group). Liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) technology was used to detect changes in platelet metabolome levels under different storage conditions. Platelet functional activity was assessed by thromboelastography (TEG) for maximum amplitude (MA) values and flow cytometry for CD62P activation rates. [Results] Metabolites in the glycolytic pathway, key metabolites in the tricarboxylic acid cycle (citrate, α-ketoglutarate), metabolites in the purine metabolism pathway (adenine, inosine monophosphate, guanine, etc.) and amino acid metabolites significantly decreased by d5 in the control group, whereas they remained stable in the experimental group. The content of fatty acid metabolites, such as prostaglandin G2, 13(S)-HOTrE, and linoleic acid, significantly increased in the control group. Statistically significant differences in MA values were observed between the two groups at d1 and d5 (P<0.05). However, in the experimental group, as the storage time extended, the MA values at d10 and d15 showed no significant difference compared to the control group at d5 (P>0.05). The CD62P activation rate between the two groups was statistically significant (P<0.05). Additionally, the CD62P activation rate of platelets in the 22℃ group increased rapidly from d1, while it rose gradually in the 4 ℃ group. [Conclusion] Platelets stored at 4 ℃ exhibit more stable metabolic activity and slower functional deterioration, which is beneficial for extending the effective storage period of platelets.

Occupational noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL) is an irreversible sensorineural hearing loss that severely endangers workers’ health, making early screening crucial. This article reviewed the research progress on early screening methods for occupational NIHL, introduced the testing mechanisms of three core screening methods—tympanometry, otoacoustic emissions, and extended high-frequency audiometry —and summarized their clinical application advantages and limitations. It is proposed that multimodal combined detection (e.g., the combination of tympanometry, otoacoustic emissions, and extended high-frequency audiometry) can significantly improve the accuracy and comprehensiveness of early screening. Meanwhile, future studies with prospective cohort design are encouraged to verify the long-term monitoring value of each method and to strengthen the joint development of screening technologies with cutting-edge approaches such as machine learning, in order to further improve screening efficiency and provide stronger protection for workers’ hearing health.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the efficacy and safety of clobazam in the additional treatment of refractory epilepsy in children, and provide reference for clinically safe and rational drug use. METHODS The literatures about additional clobazam treatment for refractory epilepsy in children were searched from PubMed, The Cochrane Library, Embase, CNKI, VIP and Wanfang database during the inception to November 2023. After literature screening and data extraction, the quality of included literature was evaluated according to quality evaluation tool for methodological evaluation indicators of non-randomized controlled trial, and then meta-analysis of single-group rate and sensitivity analysis were performed by using RevMan 5.3 software. RESULTS Finally, 18 one-arm studies were included, with a total of 1 424 children. The results showed that compared with before additional treatment, the proportion of patients with seizures-free (proportion of patients with seizure reduction of 100%) was 24%[95%CI (0.18,0.32), P<0.000 01] after conversion; the proportion of patients with seizure reduction ≥75% was 32%[95%CI(0.25,0.40), P<0.000 1] after conversion; the proportion of patients with seizure reduction ≥50% was 53%[95%CI(0.44,0.61),P<0.000 01]; the proportion of patients with seizure reduction <50% or no change was 35%[95%CI(0.24,0.49),P=0.04] after conversion; the proportion of patients with seizure increase was 9%[95%CI(0.05,0.18),P<0.000 01] after conversion. The proportion of patients with adverse reactions was 31%[95%CI(0.23,0.40),P<0.000 1] after conversion; the proportion of patients with discontinuation due to adverse reactions was 10%[95%CI(0.07, 0.15), P<0.000 01] after conversion. The common adverse drug reactions were drowsiness, fatigue and behavior change, etc. The results of the sensitivity analysis showed that the study was robust. CONCLUSIONS Clobazam is an effective additional therapy for refractory epilepsy in children, but its adverse effects should be vigilant.

ObjectiveTo observe the mechanism of Jiawei Guizhi Fuling decoction (JGFD) in alleviating sciatic nerve injury in painful diabetic peripheral neuropathy (PDPN) rats by regulating mitophagy through the PTEN-induced putative kinase 1 (PINK1)/Parkin signaling pathway. MethodThe PDPN model was established by intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin (STZ). After modeling, the rats were randomly divided into JGFD high, medium, and low dose groups (JGFD-H, JGFD-M, JGFD-L; 39.6, 19.8, 9.9 g·kg-1·d-1, respectively), a positive drug group (lipoic acid capsules, LA; 50 mg·kg-1·d-1), and a model group (PDPN). A blank control group (CON) was established. Drug intervention was administered continuously for 8 weeks after modeling. Measurements included body weight and fasting blood glucose of PDPN rats at weeks 0, 2, 4, and 8, mechanical pain threshold and thermal pain threshold at weeks 0 and 8, and motor nerve conduction velocity at week 8. Hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining was used to observe the morphology of sciatic nerve tissue. The ultrastructure of mitochondria and autophagosomes was observed by transmission electron microscopy. Western blot was performed to detect the protein expression levels of PINK1, Parkin, p62, Beclin-1, and LC3 in sciatic nerve tissue. Additionally, real-time quantitative PCR (Real-time PCR) was performed to detect the mRNA expression levels of PINK1, Parkin, p62, Beclin-1, and LC3 in sciatic nerve tissue. ResultCompared with the CON group, the PDPN group showed a significant decrease in body weight at all time points, a significant increase in fasting blood glucose, significantly shortened mechanical pain and thermal pain thresholds, and significantly reduced motor nerve conduction velocity. The protein and mRNA expression of PINK1, Parkin, Beclin-1, and microtubule-associated protein light chain 3(LC3) in sciatic nerve tissue was significantly reduced, while p62 protein and mRNA expression was significantly increased (P<0.01). Pathological changes included edema of sciatic nerve fibers, segmental demyelination, loose and disordered arrangement of the myelin sheath layers, significant swelling of mitochondria, reduced electron density, disappearance of cristae, and absence of typical autophagosome and autolysosome structures. Compared with the PDPN group, each JGFD dose group showed a significant increase in body weight and a significant reduction in fasting blood glucose (P<0.05, P<0.01). The mechanical pain threshold and thermal pain threshold were significantly prolonged, and motor nerve conduction velocity was significantly increased across all JGFD and LA groups. The expression levels of PINK1, Parkin, Beclin-1, and LC3 proteins and mRNA in sciatic nerve tissue were significantly increased, while p62 protein and mRNA expression levels were significantly decreased (P<0.05, P<0.01). Pathological damage to the sciatic nerve was alleviated to varying degrees, with a relatively intact myelin sheath morphology and intact or slightly edematous outer mitochondrial membrane. Autophagolysosome structures were observed in the JGFD-M and JGFD-H groups. Compared with the LA group, the JGFD-H group showed a significant increase in body weight, a significant reduction in fasting blood glucose, a significant increase in motor nerve conduction velocity, a significant increase in PINK1 protein expression and PINK1, Parkin, and Beclin-1 mRNA expression in sciatic nerve tissue, and a significant decrease in p62 mRNA expression (P<0.05, P<0.01). ConclusionJGFD may alleviate sciatic nerve injury in PDPN rats by activating mitophagy through the regulation of the PINK1/Parkin signaling pathway.

Objective To timely understand the current status and distribution of nail snails (Oncomelania hupensis) in Tongjiang River channels in Zhenjiang City, providing a scientific basis for achieving the goal of eliminating schistosomiasis. Methods From 2019 to 2023, nine Tongjiang River channels on the south bank of the Yangtze River under the jurisdiction of Zhenjiang City were selected as the monitoring area. Snail monitoring was carried out onshore and beach nail snails floats in the Tongjiang River channels, nail snails on attachments in hardened areas, snails induced by straw curtains, and snails carried by boats and domestic animals. Results The monitoring results of shoreline snail from 2019 to 2023 showed that the snail situation in the Tongjiang River channel and its outer river bank remained relatively stable from 2019 to 2020; however, in 2021, under the influence of the Yangtze River flooding disaster in 2020, the area of snails increased significantly. In 2021, the area with snails in the Tongjiang River channel and the outer river bank increased by 45.70% (11.95/26.15) and 100.00% (20.00/20.00) compared to 2020; the average density of nails snails in the Tongjiang River channel and the outer river bank and the emergence rate of snail frames both showed a significant increase, rising by 94.73% (0.18/0.19) and 68.08% (8.68/12.75) compared to 2020, and by 122.73% (0.81/0.66) and 102.78% (43.26/42.09), respectively. The differences in the increase in the occurrence rate of spiked frames in the Tongjiang River channel Chili River and Renmin River were not statistically significant (χ2=0.329, P>0.05; χ2=0.646, P>0.05). From 2022 to 2023, the density of nail snails and the occurrence rate of framed snails in the Tongjiang River channel showed a decreasing trend (F=4.72, P=0.04 and χ2=372.58, P<0.01). The area of nail snails, density of live snails, and occurrence rate of framed snails in the outer river bank showed a decreasing trend (F=13.96, P=0.02; F=23.43, P<0.01; χ2=1 029.69, P<0.01). During the five years, no nail snails were detected in the ancient canal and 11 tributaries. From 2019 to 2023, 180 times of 3 003 kg of floating objects were salvaged, with a total of 148 live snails detected. A total of 17 live snails were captured on attachments in the hardened berm area; a total of 11 live snails were captured by straw curtain snail baiting;112 boats were inspected, and no snails were found; there were 112 boats surveyed, and no snails were found; 97 cattle were observed, and 2 cattle were found to carry 1 live snail on their hooves; 321 sheep were observed, and no snails were found on their hooves; and no infectious snails were found in the monitoring area in 5 years. Conclusions Nail snails continue to exist in the Tongjiang River channel, and the risk factors for schistosomiasis transmission have not been completely eliminated. It is still necessary to carry out accurate monitoring of the snail situation in the Tongjiang River and the river bank, so as to grasp the risk of transmission in time and take emergency measures.
