Objective::To analyze fetal renal abnormality genetic features and the prenatal characteristics of the 17q12 microdeletion syndrome.Methods::This prospective cohort study examined prenatal ultrasound findings of renal abnormalities in pregnant women who underwent single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) array or copy number variation sequencing (CNV-seq) testing on amniotic fluid or fetal tissue at Tianjin Central Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital between January 2016 and August 2022. The study cohort comprised women with advanced maternal age, fetal ultrasound anomalies, high-risk non-invasive prenatal testing results, or suspected 17q12 microdeletion syndrome. Comprehensive clinical data, including maternal age, detailed ultrasound findings, and pregnancy outcomes, were systematically collected. SNP-array analysis was conducted using an Affymetrix CytoScan 750 K Array Chip to identify CNVs and loss of heterozygosity, while CNV-seq was performed on the Illumina HiSeq 2000 platform. Detected variants were classified according to the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics guidelines. Statistical analyses were performed using SPSS version 27.0.Results::Abnormal renal development was identified in 141 patients, among whom 26 exhibited hyperechogenic kidneys (HCK). Of these, 12 cases were associated with 17q12 microdeletion syndrome, while the remaining 14 were linked to other chromosomal abnormalities. When excluding patients with HCK, those diagnosed with polycystic kidney disease demonstrated a higher prevalence of chromosomal abnormalities compared to those with multicystic dysplastic kidney and renal dysplasia. Although isolated conditions such as horseshoe kidney, hydronephrosis, ectopic kidney, and unilateral kidney typically presented with normal chromosomal findings, the incidence of chromosomal abnormalities increased when these conditions coexisted with other anomalies. A detailed analysis of the correlation between 17q12 microdeletion syndrome and HCK revealed that 12 out of the 14 patients diagnosed with 17q12 microdeletion syndrome exhibited HCK. Genetic testing confirmed the syndrome in seven patients, with five cases attributed to novel mutations and two cases resulting from inherited mutations.Conclusion::Fetal HCK was closely associated with the 17q12 microdeletion syndrome, and polycystic kidney disease showed a higher rate of chromosomal abnormalities. Chromosome test results were mostly normal in patients with other renal abnormalities, such as kidney dysplasia, horseshoe kidneys, hydronephrosis, kidney deficiency, and ectopic kidneys. Prenatal diagnosis is recommended, especially in cases of non-isolated fetal renal abnormalities. This study provides strong evidence supporting a link between fetal renal abnormalities and genetic syndromes.

Objective:To describe the prevalence of perinatal death in Tongzhou District of Beijing,and to estimate the association between maternal periconceptional supplementation of folic acid or multiple micronutrients containing folic acid and perinatal mortality rate.Methods:A retrospective cohort study was conducted based on the maternal and child care system in Tongzhou District of Beijing.The subjects were 94 490 perinatal who were born during January 2013 to December 2018.The information on perina-tal outcomes and maternal periconceptional supplementation of folic acid or multiple micronutrients contai-ning folic acid were collected.The Poisson log-linear model was used to estimate the association between maternal periconceptional folic acid or multiple micronutrients supplementation and perinatal mortality rate.Results:The overall perinatal mortality rate was 2.71‰.The perinatal mortality rates for maternal nutrients supplementation containing folic acid and no supplementation during periconceptional period were 2.63‰ and 3.43‰,respectively,and the difference in rates was not statistically significant[crude risk ratio(cRR)=0.77,95％CI:0.54-1.14].After adjusting for potential confounding factors in-cluding ethnicity,age,education level,occupation,household registration,parity,numbers of fetuses,gestational age,pregnant with assisted reproductive technology,delivery year and pre-pregnancy body mass index,the rates remained not statistically significant[adjusted risk ratio(aRR)=0.93,95％CI:0.77-1.13].The perinatal mortality rates were 2.23‰ and 2.99‰ for pure folic acid and multi-nutrients supplements containing folic acid,respectively,and the difference in rates was statistically sig-nificant(cRR=1.34,95％CI:1.02-1.76).The rates difference remained statistically significant after adjusting for potential confounders(aRR=1.31,95％CI:1.06-1.62).Additionally,the peri-natal mortality rates differences among the non-supplementation group and the supplementation group with variate timing of initiation(pre-conception or post-conception)or frequency of supplementation(low-frequency or high-frequency)were not statistically significant,regardless of adjusting for confounders.Conclusion:The overall perinatal mortality rate was lower than the national average level in Tongzhou District of Beijing.Maternal periconceptional supplementation of pure folic acid or micronutrients contai-ning folic acid had no impact on perinatal mortality.The association between maternal periconceptional supplementation of multiple micronutrients containing folic acid and perinatal mortality rate need further research.

Juvenile idiopathic arthritis(JIA)is the most prevalent joint disease in childhood.The disease is defined as arthritis of unknown etiology,involving one or more joints,with onset before the age of 16 years and symptomatic duration of more than 6 weeks.Temporomandibular joint(TMJ)arthritis is a common manifestation of JIA,but it often develops insidiously.Failing to diag-nose and treat it promptly may lead to maxillofacial dysfunction and dentofacial deformity,and negatively affect the patient's quality of life.Therefore,early diagnosis and disease management of TMJ arthritis are crucial.This article reviews the occurrence of JIA-TMJ arthritis and its progress in clinical diagnosis and disease treatment in recent years,aiming to provide some reference for den-tists in the clinical diagnosis and treatment of JIA.

This study aims to investigate the molecular mechanism by which naringin alleviates cerebral ischemia/reperfusion(CI/R) injury through DRP1/LRRK2/MCU signaling axis. A total of 60 SD rats were randomly divided into the sham group, the model group, the sodium Danshensu group, and low-, medium-, and high-dose(50, 100, and 200 mg·kg~(-1)) naringin groups, with 10 rats in each group. Except for the sham group, a transient middle cerebral artery occlusion/reperfusion(tMCAO/R) model was established in SD rats using the suture method. Longa 5-point scale was used to assess neurological deficits. 2,3,5-Triphenyl tetrazolium chloride(TTC) staining was used to detect the volume percentage of cerebral infarction in rats. Hematoxylin-eosin(HE) staining and Nissl staining were employed to assess neuronal structural alterations and the number of Nissl bodies in cortex, respectively. Western blot was used to determine the protein expression levels of B-cell lymphoma-2 gene(Bcl-2), Bcl-2-associated X protein(Bax), cleaved cysteine-aspartate protease-3(cleaved caspase-3), mitochondrial calcium uniporter(MCU), microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3(LC3), and P62. Mitochondrial structure and autophagy in cortical neurons were observed by transmission electron microscopy. Immunofluorescence assay was used to quantify the fluorescence intensities of MCU and mitochondrial calcium ion, as well as the co-localization of dynamin-related protein 1(DRP1) with leucine-rich repeat kinase 2(LRRK2) and translocase of outer mitochondrial membrane 20(TOMM20) with LC3 in cortical mitochondria. The results showed that compared with the model group, naringin significantly decreased the volume percentage of cerebral infarction and neurological deficit score in tMCAO/R rats, alleviated the structural damage and Nissl body loss of cortical neurons in tMCAO/R rats, inhibited autophagosomes in cortical neurons, and increased the average diameter of cortical mitochondria. The Western blot results showed that compared to the sham group, the model group exhibited increased levels of cleaved caspase-3, Bax, MCU, and the LC3Ⅱ/LC3Ⅰ ratio in the cortex and reduced protein levels of Bcl-2 and P62. However, naringin down-regulated the protein expression of cleaved caspase-3, Bax, MCU and the ratio of LC3Ⅱ/LC3Ⅰ ratio and up-regulated the expression of Bcl-2 and P62 proteins in cortical area. In addition, immunofluorescence analysis showed that compared with the model group, naringin and positive drug treatments significantly decreased the fluorescence intensities of MCU and mitochondrial calcium ion. Meanwhile, the co-localization of DRP1 with LRRK2 and TOMM20 with LC3 in cortical mitochondria was also decreased significantly after the intervention. These findings suggest that naringin can alleviate cortical neuronal damage in tMCAO/R rats by inhibiting DRP1/LRRK2/MCU-mediated mitochondrial fragmentation and the resultant excessive mitophagy.

ObjectiveTo investigate the mechanism by which 2，3，5，4'-tetrahydroxyldiphenylethylene-2-O-glucoside （THSG） mitigates cerebral ischemia/reperfusion （CI/R） injury by regulating mitochondrial calcium overload and promoting mitophagy. MethodsSixty male SD rats were randomized into sham， model， SAS （40 mg·kg^-1）， and low-， medium- and high-dose （10， 20， 40 mg·kg^-1， respectively） THSG groups， with 10 rats in each group. The middle cerebral artery occlusion/reperfusion （MCAO/R） model was established by the modified Longa suture method. An oxygen-glucose deprivation/reoxygenation （OGD/R） model was constructed in PC12 cells. Neurological deficits were assessed via Zea Longa scoring， and cerebral infarct volume was measured by 2，3，5-triphenyltetrazolium chloride （TTC） staining. Structural and functional changes of cortical neurons in MCAO/R rats were assessed by hematoxylin-eosin and Nissl staining. PC12 cell viability was detected by cell counting kit-8 （CCK-8） assay， and mitochondrial calcium levels were quantified by Rhod-2 AM. Immunofluorescence was used to detect co-localization of PTEN-induced kinase 1 （PINK1） and leucine zipper/EF-hand-containing transmembrane protein 1 （LETM1） in neurons. Transmission electron microscopy （TEM） was employed to observe mitochondrial morphology in neurons. Western blot was employed to analyze the expression of translocase of outer mitochondrial membrane 20 （TOMM20）， autophagy-associated protein p62， microtubule-associated protein light chain 3 （LC3）， cysteinyl aspartate-specific proteinase-9 （Caspase-9）， B-cell lymphoma 2-associated protein X （Bax）， and cytochrome C （Cyt C）. ResultsCompared with the sham group， the model group exhibited increased infarct volume （P<0.01） and neurological deficit scores （P<0.01）， neuronal structure was disrupted with reduced Nissl bodies. （P<0.01）， mitochondrial swelling/fragmentation， decreased PINK1/LETM1 co-localization （P<0.01）， upregulated protein levels of LC3Ⅱ/LC3Ⅰ， TOMM20， Caspase-9， Bax， and Cyt C （P<0.01）， downregulated protein level of p62 （P<0.05）， weakened PC12 viability （P<0.01）， and elevated mitochondrial calcium level （P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， THSG and SAS groups showed reduced infarct volumes （P<0.05，P<0.01） and neurological deficit scores （P<0.05，P<0.01）， mitigated mitochondrial damage， and increased PINK1/LETM1 co-localization （P<0.01）. Medium/high-dose THSG and SAS alleviated the neurological damage， increased Nissl bodies （P<0.05，P<0.01）， downregulated the protein levels of p62， TOMM20， Caspase-9， Bax， and Cyt C （P<0.05，P<0.01）， and elevated the LC3Ⅱ/LC3Ⅰ level （P<0.05，P<0.01）. High-dose THSG enhanced PC12 cell viability （P<0.01）， increased PINK1/LETM1 co-localization （P<0.01）， and reduced mitochondrial calcium （P<0.01）. ConclusionTHSG may exert the neuroprotective effect on CI/R injury by activating the PINK1-LETM1 signaling pathway， reducing the mitochondrial calcium overload， and promoting mitophagy.

Objective:To analyze the impact of different intrauterine intervention methods and types of complications on fetal prognosis in cases of giant placental chorioangioma (CA), and determine the indications for various treatment methods by analyzing cases of adverse outcomes.Methods:Relevant articles were retrieved from China National Knowledge Infrastructure, VIP Database, Wanfang Database, and Yiigle using the keywords "placental chorioangioma" and "fetal edema" or "anemia" or "cardiomegaly" or "polyhydramnios," and from PubMed, Embase, and UpToDate databases using the keywords "placental chorionic angioma or chorioangioma" and "fetal edema" or "anemia" or "polyhydramnios" or "hyperdynamic circulation" up to June 30th 2023. The size of the angiomas, fetal complications, intrauterine intervention methods, gestational weeks at intervention, and pregnancy outcomes were analyzed. Fetal and neonatal deaths were defined as adverse outcomes. Statistical analysis was performed using an independent sample t-test, rank-sum test, or Chi-square test (continuity correction Chi-square test or Pearson Chi-square test). Results:(1) A total of 582 articles were retrieved, and 51 articles were finally included, comprising 65 cases. Based on the intrauterine intervention methods, these cases were divided into the symptomatic treatment group (17 cases) and the etiological treatment group (48 cases). There were no statistically significant differences between the two groups in the maximum diameter of the angiomas, the gestational weeks at intervention, or the gestational weeks at delivery. (2) The incidence of adverse outcomes was 3/17 in the symptomatic treatment group and 27.1% (13/48) in the etiological treatment group, with no statistically significant difference. In the etiological treatment group, the incidence of adverse outcomes in cases with fetal edema was 45.4% (10/22), which was significantly higher than the 11.5% (3/26) in cases without fetal edema, and the difference was statistically significant ( χ 2=6.94, P=0.008). (3) An analysis of 13 cases with adverse outcomes revealed that nine cases had highly vascularized chorioangiomas and/or blood supply vessels located close to the umbilical cord insertion point on the placenta, and nine were complicated by fetal edema. The incidence of adverse outcomes for fetoscopic laser coagulation/bipolar coagulation, radiofrequency or microwave ablation, bioglue embolization, anhydrous alcohol ablation, and microcoil embolization were 4/19, 3/4, 1/8, 2/9, and 3/6, respectively. Conclusions:Intrauterine treatment of CA should be individualized. Bioglue embolization may be the first-line treatment; Fetoscopic laser coagulation can be applied to cases where the blood supply vessels are small and superficial;Interstitial laser ablation and radiofrequency ablation can be used for branch-type CA when the main blood supply vessels are located within the hemangioma; Anhydrous alcohol ablation is contraindicated due to its risk of fetal circulation entry; Microcoil embolization has the risk of incomplete occlusion, which should be used with caution.
