Objective To evaluate the prognostic value of serum tissue factor pathway inhibitor-1(TFPI-1)combined with nuclear factor-κB(NF-κB)in severe traumatic brain injury(STBI).Methods The medical re-cords of 127 patients with STBI admitted to the hospital from July 2022 to August 2024 were retrospectively ana-lyzed and followed up for 6 months.They were divided into poor prognosis group(n=53)and good prognosis group(n=74)according to the prognosis of STBI patients.The serum NF-κB level,clinical data and serum TFPI-1 level of the two groups were compared.The factors affecting the adverse prognosis of STBI patients was screened,and the value of serum NF-κB and serum TFPI-1 in predicting the adverse prognosis of STBI patients were ana-lyzed.Results The serum NF-κB level in the poor prognosis group was higher than good prognosis group,and the serum TFPI-1 level was lower than good prognosis group(P<0.05).The proportion of patients aged>60 years old was higher than good prognosis group(P<0.05).Serum TFPI-1 level(OR=0.328,95%CI:0.156~0.689)was a protective factor for poor prognosis in STBI patients(P<0.05),serum NF-κB level(OR=3.773,95%CI:1.797~7.924)and age>60 years(OR=3.543,95%CI:1.687~7.441)were independent risk factors for poor prognosis in STBI patients(P<0.05).The area under the curve(AUC)of serum TFPI-1 and NF-κB levels and their combined prediction of poor prognosis in STBI patients were 0.784,0.847 and 0.931,respectively(P<0.05),and the AUC value of the combined TFPI-1 and NF-κB levels was higher(P<0.05).Conclusion Serum NF-κB combined with serum TFPI-1 has higher prognostic value in STBI patients.

Purpose To explore the diagnostic value of beak sign in fetal annular pancreas by analyzing the ultrasonographic features of fetal annular pancreas.Materials and Methods The ultrasound images and clinical data of 13 cases of fetal annular pancreas diagnosed by prenatal ultrasound in Shandong Provincial Maternal and Child Health Hospital from September 2019 to December 2021 and confirmed by surgery after birth were retrospectively analyzed.The degree of duodenal stenosis at the obstruction site was observed,especially whether the angle formed by the intestinal wall could identify the fetal annular pancreas,and the ultrasonic characteristics were summarized and analyzed.Results A total of 13 fetuses with annular pancreas showed double bubble sign,3 cases showed clamp sign,and 7 cases showed beak sign at the end of duodenal dilatation.All the 13 cases underwent surgical treatment after birth,including 2 cases with duodenal atresia and 1 case with atypical intestinal malrotation.All the children had good prognosis after operation.Conclusion By observing the dilated end of duodenum and the relationship with pancreatic head,prenatal ultrasound combined with beak sign and double bubble sign could improve the diagnostic accuracy of fetal annular pancreas,which has significant value in prenatal diagnosis of fetal annular pancreas.

Objective:To investigate the prevalence of Escherchia albertii in Shanxi province. Methods:The chicken intestines were enriched in EC broth. The eae gene was detected by PCR, and the eae-positive EC enrichments were inoculated in MacConkey agar plate. The eae-positive lactose non-fermenting isolates were presumed as Escherchia albertii, and then analyzed by triplex-PCR, 16S rDNA sequencing and MLST. Results:Two suspected Escherchia albertiiwere isolated from 250 samples of chicken intestines. It was identified as Escherchia albertii by phenotypic, specific genes,16S rDNA sequencing, and MLST analyses . The cytolethal distending toxin B ( cdtB) showed positive by PCR,and they were clusted to Ⅱ/Ⅲ/Ⅴ group by sequencing. Conclusion:This study showed that the Escherchia albertii was existed in Shanxi province, China.

Objective The article was to observe the clinical efficacy of the application of terbinafine and mizolastine in com -bined treatment of chronic eczema ( CE) with dermatophytes infection , so as to define the etiology role of dermatophytes in allergic dis-eases. Methods All subjects were randomly divided into experiment group and control group .The experiment group was treated with the combination of terbinafine and mizolastine , while the control group took mizolastine orally alone .EASI grading , recovery rate and effective rate were evaluated at 2, 3 week after the treatment and EASI grading and recurrence rate were evaluated at 4 weeks after the treatment. Results 79 patients had finished the experiment .Significant difference was found in the effective rates between two groups at 3 weeks after treatment (P<0.05).At 4 weeks after the treatment, EASI value and recurrence rate in experiment group were obviously lower than those in control group (P<0.05). Conclusion Good therapeutic effect has been achieved through the ap-plication of terbinafine and mizolastine in combined treatment of CE with dermatophytes infection , which implies dermatophytes plays an important role in the etiology of CE .

A 48-year-old female presented with a 6-year history of papules and plaques all over the body and with 1-year history of blurred vision in the right eye.Physical examination showed porcelain-white atrophic papules with peripheral erythematous halo and telangiectnsia.She also suffered from exotropia,visual deterioration,visual field defects of the right eye,as well as numbness of the left index finger,thumb and right anterior tibia.Skin biopsies of abdominal lesions revealed dermal necrosis with mucoid degeneration,inflammatory infiltration predominated by lymphocytes around several small blood vessels and occlusion of some blood vessels in deep dermis.Colonoscopy of the whole colon demonstrated scattered patches of hyperemia and erosions with the formation of shallow ulcers.Nerve electromyologram revealed damage to the nerves of right quadriceps femoris muscles.Fecal analysis showed that occult blood was strongly positive.A diagnosis of malignant atrophic papulosis was made based on the characteristic clinical presentation,laboratory and histopathological findings.She was treated with dipyridamole and aspirin for three months,which resulted in no clinical improvement or deterioration.

Objective To investigate precision error between Varian auri-point localization system and Tosplane digital-bed localization system. Methods Varian Eclipse localization method and Topslane localization method were used separately to locate one target area for one same patient. Then deviations on the tumor center coordinate were measured under the simu- lation localization machine. Results Under two localization methods, the length error: 1.7mm ?0.3mm; the width error: 0.5mm?0.4mm; the altitude error: 1.2mm?0.4mm. Conclusion The curative effect of radiotherapy would be improved by applying the Topslane localization bed to the Varian Eclipse plan system.
