Objective:To investigate the incidence of hypomineralized second primary molars (HSPM) and deciduous teeth caries in school-aged children of Kaifeng City, and to discuss the association between HSPM and deciduous teeth caries, providing scientific guidance for clinical prevention and treatment.Methods:A cross-sectional study was carried out on first-grade children aged 6-7 years in five primary schools chosen from the eastern, western, southern, northern, and central areas of Kaifeng City by cluster random sampling method. The European Academy of Pediatric Dentistry criteria was used for scoring HSPM. The International Caries Detection and Assessment System (ICDAS-Ⅱ) was used to evaluate caries status.Results:This cross-sectional study was with a sample of 913 children. The prevalence of HSPM was 8.76% (80/913), with 39 boys and 41 girls, the most common type of which was atypical caries [35.00% (28/80)]. Regarding the distribution of HSPM, the incidence in maxilla [6.13% (56/913)] showed no statistically significant difference with that in the mandible [5.70% (52/913)] (χ2=0.16, P=0.692). In terms of severity, 56 cases were severe and 24 cases were mild. The association between HSPM and deciduous teeth caries was analyzed. The results showed that 56 had caries on their second primary molars among the 80 HSPM children. Children with HSPM had an increased risk of second deciduous molar decay compared to non-HSPM children ( OR=1.94, 95 %CI: 1.18-3.19, P<0.05); meanwhile, the deciduous teeth of HSPM children were more prone to suffer caries than those of non-HSPM children ( OR=2.33, 95 %CI: 1.26-4.29, P<0.05). Conclusions:The HSPM prevalence in school-aged children of Kaifeng City was 8.76%. Child with HSPM was more likely to have deciduous teeth caries than non-HSPM child. Special attention should be paid to children with HSPM after the eruption of affected molars.

Objective:The components of Rubus parvifolius L. were analyzed based on UPLC-MS/MS technology and combined with network pharmacology analysis to explore the mechanism of action of Rubi Parvifolii Radix in treating inflammation, cough, fever, influenza and sore throat. Method:The chemical constituents of Rubi Parvifolii Radix were identified according to the information of mass spectrometry. The network pharmacology was used to analyze the corresponding targets and related pathways of its chemical components, and the "component-target-pathway" interaction diagram was drawn. PyMOL 2.5.7 software wasused to perform molecular docking between active components and key targets.Results:Twenty chemical components were identified by UPLC-MS/MS, and 15 components were screened out by network pharmacology, which can be used as quality markers of Rubi Parvifolii Radix, namely Azelaic acid, Procyanidol B3, Caprolactam, Bis (2-ethylhexyl) adipate, Cryptochlorogenic acid, 3-O-Feruloylquinic, Ellagic acid, Aurantiamide acetate, 2 α,3 β,19 α,23-Tetrahydroxyurs-12-en-28-oic acid, L-Epicatechin, (E)-3-Indoleacrylic acid, Euscaphic acid, Suberic acid, Diisononyl phthalate and Prodelphinidin T4. Molecular docking showed that 5 compounds compared with the reference substance could bind to the target proteins of disease well. Conclusions:The 15 active ingredients in Rubi Parvifolii Radix, including Caprolactam and (E)-3-Indoleacrylic acid, may play a therapeutic role in treating colds, high fever, sore throat, and inflammation by acting on targets such as AKT1 and TNF. This provides a certain reference for the clinical application of Rubi Parvifolii Radix.

The paper reports two cases of lipoprotein glomerulopathy (LPG) in children. The Sanger sequencing results in 2 cases indicated apolipoprotein E gene mutation[c.127 (exon3) C>T, p.R43C (p.Arg43Cys); c.494 (exon4) G>C, p.R165P (p.Arg165Pro),respectively]. Renal pathological presentation of two children showed that a large number of lipoprotein emboli were formed in the glomerular capillary loop, and the diagnosis of LPG was confirmed. The onset of LPG has no specific clinical manifestation, which is easy to be undiagnosed or misdiagnosed. Renal biopsy is a diagnostic means, glucocorticoid treatment is ineffective, and long-term lipid-lowering treatment may be required for LPG.

Objective:To analyze the clinical and pathological characteristics in children diagnosed with primary focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) after repeated renal biopsy.Methods:The clinicopathological data of children who ever experienced renal biopsy in Jinling Hospital from January 1, 2000 to December 31, 2020 were retrospectively reviewed. Clinical manifestations, pathological characteristics and treatment responses were analyzed.Results:Of the 34 enrolled patients, there were 22 males and 12 females. The median age of the first renal biopsy was 14 years old (1-18 years old), and the median interval between repeat renal biopsy and first renal biopsy was 6 months (1-151 months). Thirty-one showed nephrotic syndrome, of which 22 had microscopic hematuria, and 4 had elevated serum creatinine. Among the other 3 patients, 2 had hematuria and proteinuria, and 1 had proteinuria. In the first renal biopsy, 16 cases were diagnosed as minimal change disease, 14 cases were diagnosed as mesangial proliferative glomerulonephritis, 2 cases were diagnosed as IgA nephropathy, and 2 cases were diagnosed as IgM nephropathy. All 34 children showed poor responses to hormone and immunosuppressive therapies. The pathological features of the first renal biopsy in some patients were adhesion (2/34), decreased loop podocyte attachment (2/34), peripheral loop extension to the urinary pole (2/34), renal tubular reflux (4/34), capillary thrombosis (2/34) and IgM deposition (12/34).Conclusions:The initial diagnosis of FSGS is difficult, and the lesions are atypical and easily misdiagnosed. The patients have poor responses to hormone and immunosuppressive therapies. For patients with the pathological changes of adhesion, decreased loop podocyte attachment, peripheral loop extension to the urinary pole, renal tubular reflux, capillary thrombosis and IgM deposition, follow-up is required, and if necessary, repeat renal biopsy needs be performed to determine whether it is FSGS.

Objective:To analyze the clinical and prognosis of primary membranous nephropathy (PMN) in children with positive glomerular M-type phospholipase A2 receptor (PLA2R).Methods:A total of 69 children diagnosed with PMN by renal biopsy admitted to the Department of Pediatrics of Eastern Theater Command General Hospital from January 2006 to December 2018 were retrospectively analyzed, including 40 males and 29 females, with an average age of 14.86 years.According to the immunofluorescence of renal pathology, they were divided into PLA2R positive group and PLA2R negative group.Pathological features between 2 groups were compared by the t test, Mann- Whitney U test and Chi- square test.Kaplan-Meier method was used to compare the long-term renal survival rate and cumulative remission rate between 2 groups. Results:A total of 69 pediatric PMN patients were included.The po-sitive rates of serum anti-PLA2R antibody and positive expression of PLA2R in renal tissues were 53.6% (37 cases) and 82.6% (57 cases), respectively.The proportion of children with clinical manifestations of large proteinuria [55 cases(96.5% ) vs.9 cases(75.0%), P=0.034] was significantly higher in the PLA2R positive group than that of the PLA2R negative group.Blood urea nitrogen level was significantly higher in the PLA2R positive group than that of PLA2R negative group[1.14(0.93, 1.54) mg/L vs.0.80 (0.44, 1.18) mg/L, P=0.049], while estimate glomerular filtration rate(eGFR) [162.26 (139.81, 185.53) mL/(min·1.73 m 2) vs.199.52 (157.58, 212.01) mL/(min·1.73 m 2), P=0.034] and serum IgG [3.58 (2.50, 5.43) g/L vs.5.14 (4.35, 6.03) g/L, P=0.016] were significantly lower.The cumulative remission rate was significantly higher in the PLA2R negative group than that of PLA2R positive group ( P<0.001). The 24 h urinary protein ≥50 mg/kg ( HR=0.119, 95% CI: 0.021-0.595, P=0.010)was an independent risk factor for renal prognosis, and PLA2R( HR=0.263, 95% CI: 0.125-0.551, P<0.001) and 24 h urinary protein ≥50 mg/kg ( HR=0.568, 95% CI: 0.125-0.551, P=0.041)were independent predictors of urinary protein remission.PLA2R ( HR=1.020, 95% CI: 0.698-1.682, P=0.656)was not associated with renal prognosis. Conclusions:The severity of PMN in children with positive PLA2R was higher than that in those with negative PLA2R.The long-term cumulative remission rate of PLA2R negative children with PMN was higher than that of PLA2R positive children.

Objective:To compare the influence of single and staged percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) on long-term prognosis in patients with multi-vessel coronary artery disease.Methods:Using prospective research methods, 1 832 patients with multi-vessel coronary artery disease from January to December 2013 in Fuwai Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences were selected. According to the time of PCI, the patients were divided into single PCI group (1 218 cases) and staged PCI group (614 cases). The patients were followed up for 2 years, the primary endpoint was major cardiovascular and cerebrovascular event (MACCE), including target vessel-related myocardial infarction (TV-MI), target vessel-related revascularization (TVR), cardiogenic death and stroke, and the secondary endpoint was stent thrombosis. The propensity score matching (PSM) was applied to balance the discrepancies between 2 groups, and the baseline and follow-up data were compared. The Kaplan-Meier survival curves were drawn to evaluate the survival rates events; multifactor Cox proportional risk regression was used to analyze whether staged PCI was an independent risk factor for the endpoint events.Results:The in-hospital stay, duration of procedure and synergy between percutaneous coronary intervention with taxus and cardiac surgery (SYNTAX) score in single PCI group were significantly lower than those in staged PCI group: (5.54±3.09) d vs. (9.50±4.06) d, (43.12±28.55) min vs. (79.54±44.35) min, (14.04±7.63) scores vs. (18.51±7.79) scores, and there were statistical differences ( P<0.01); there were no statistical difference in complete revascularization rate and SYNTAX score after PCI between 2 groups ( P>0.05). Based on 2-year follow-up, the incidences of TV-MI and stent thrombosis in staged PCI group were significantly higher than those in single PCI group: 2.1% (13/614) vs. 0.5% (6/1 218) and 2.0% (12/614) vs. 0.4% (5/1 218), and there were statistical differences ( P<0.01). Kaplan-Meier survival curves analysis results showed that the event-free survival rates of TV-MI and stent thrombosis in single PCI group were better than those in staged PCI group (99.5% vs. 97.9% and 99.6% vs. 98.0%, P<0.01). Multifactor Cox proportional risk regression analysis results showed that staged PCI was an independent risk factor for stent thrombosis ( HR = 3.91, 95% CI 1.25 to 12.18, P = 0.019). After PSM, the incidences of TV-MI and stent thrombosis in staged PCI group were significantly higher than those in single PCI group: 2.1% (13/614) vs. 0.7% (4/614) and 2.0% (12/614) vs. 0.5% (3/614), and there were statistical differences ( P<0.05); Kaplan-Meier survival curve analysis results showed that the event-free survival rates of TV-MI and stent thrombosis in single PCI group were significantly higher than those in staged PCI group: (99.3% vs. 97.9% and 99.5% vs. 98.0%, P<0.05); multifactor Cox proportional risk regression analysis results showed that staged PCI was not an independent risk factor of stent thrombosis ( HR = 2.29, 95% CI 0.58 to 9.00, P = 0.234). Both before and after PSM, there were no evidences for interaction between the type of angina pectoris and staged PCI ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Although a seemingly increase exists in the incidence of TV-MI and stent thrombosis in the staged PCI group, staged PCI is an independent risk factor neither for MACCE and its components, nor for stent thrombosis. In addition single PCI reduces the in-hospital days and duration of PCI procedure, which may be a relatively reasonable approach to clinical practice.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of Rituximab (RTX) in treating children with refractory steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome (SRNS).Methods:The clinical data of 10 children with refractory SRNS receiving RTX in the Department of Pediatrics, Jinling Hospital from September 2013 to March 2018 were analyzed retrospectively.Results:The age of onset of 10 children (including 5 males and 5 females) was (4.47±2.75) years old.The renal biopsy showed focal segmental glomerular sclerosis in 5 cases (50%), minimal change nephropathy in 3 cases (30%), IgM nephropathy in 1 case (10%), and mesangial proliferative glomerulonephritis in 1 case (10%). Ten children received RTX treatment (1 or 4 doses; 375 mg/m 2 once; maximum: 500 mg) at the age of (6.74±2.62) years old.There were 8 patients (80%) receiving a single dose of RTX, 1 patient (10%) receiving 3 doses, and 1 patient (10%) receiving 8 doses.The follow-up time was 11.93 (5.17, 25.66) months.The remission rates at the 3-month follow-up, 6-month follow-up and last follow-up were 30% (3 patients), 40% (4 patients), and 40% (4 patients), respectively.The 24-hour urinary proteinuria and serum albumin levels were improved in 10 children after RTX treatment, but there were no significant statistical difference(all P>0.05). No significant difference was found in humoral immunity and renal function before and after RTX treatment (all P>0.05). During the treatment and follow-up, 3 patients (30%) developed infusion reaction, 2 patients (20%) showed severe pulmonary infection, and 1 patient (10%) died of severe pulmonary infection. Conclusions:RTX is effective in treating some children with refractory SRNS, and a long-term follow-up should be conducted to prevent infection.
