Metabolic associated fatty liver disease （MAFLD） has become one of the most prevalent chronic liver diseases worldwide， with the core pathological feature of pathological accumulation of triglycerides in hepatocytes， and as a key rate-limiting enzyme for triglyceride synthesis in the liver， 2-acylglycerol O-acyltransferase 2 （DGAT2） plays a central role in this process. Cell and animal model studies have confirmed that inhibition of DGAT2 can effectively alleviate hepatic steatosis and delay disease progression， and subsequent clinical trials have also shown the potential clinical application value in the treatment of MAFLD. This article systematically reviews the mechanism of action of DGAT2 in the development and progression of MAFLD and comprehensively summarizes the therapeutic strategies targeting DGAT2， including the advances in both monotherapy and drug combinations， in order to provide new ideas for individualized treatment of MAFLD patients.

Objective To analyze the application effect of narrow band imaging(NBI)combined with magnifying endoscopy(ME)in early gastric cancer(EGC)screening.Methods A total of 199 patients who found focal lesions by ordinary white light endoscopy(WLE)were selected from April 2022 to October 2023.NBI combined with ME examination was performed,and histopathological examination of the specimen obtained from the lesion area was conducted.The pathological diagnosis results were recorded,and the endoscopic image qualities of WLE and NBI combined with ME examination were observed.The consistency between WLE,NBI combined with ME and patho-logical diagnosis was analyzed.The diagnostic value of WLE and NBI combined with ME for EGC was evaluated.Results The image qualities of microvascular and glandular duct by NBI combined with ME were better than those by WLE(P<0.05).The consistency between WLE diagnosis and pathological diagnosis was comparatively strong(Kappa=0.687).The consistency between NBI combined with ME and pathological diagnosis was very strong(Kappa=0.947).The consistency between NBI combined with ME and pathological diagnosis was better than that of WLE.The sensitivity,specificity,positive predictive value,negative predictive value,accuracy,and area under the curve(AUC)of NBI combined with ME in diagnosing EGC were higher than those of WLE,with statistically significant differences(P<0.05).The AUC of NBI combined with ME for diagnosing EGC was higher than that of WLE,with statistically significant difference(Z=3.493,P=0.000).Conclusion NBI combined with ME can increase the diagnostic efficiency of EGC,along with good image quality.

Objective:To investigate the clinical features and multi-slice spiral computed tomography(CT)imaging features of acute appendicitis in soldiers who have been living in plateau for a long time.Methods:The clinical features and imaging data of 56 cases of acute appendicitis in soldiers who have been living in plateau for a long time confirmed by surgery from February 2022 to August 2024 were retrospectively analyzed.Results:In 56 cases with acute appendicitis in soldiers who have been living in plateau for a long time,the appendectomy position results showed:anterior ileum 4 cases(7.14％),lower ileum 10 cases(17.86％),posterior cecum 16 cases(28.57％),lower cecum 9 cases(16.07％),lateral cecum 2 cases(3.58％),posterior ileum 6 cases(10.71％),high(subhepatic)9 cases(16.07％),and left lower abdominal 0 cases,retroperitoneal appendicitis 0 cases,which was suggested that the anatomical position variation of appendicitis in soldiers with acute appendicitis who have been living at high altitude for a long time was relatively large.The direct manifestations of multi-slice spiral CT showed:appendectomy enlarged diameter＞6 mm in 49 cases(87.50％),appendicular wall thickening＞2 mm in 42 cases(75.00％),ppendiceal dilation lumen and effusion in 29 cases(51.79％),appendix indistinctness in 3 cases(5.36％),lppendix fecalith:27 cases(48.21％),gas in the appendix in 16 cases(28.57％).Indirect findings of multi-slice spiral CT showed that,periappendiceal exudation with shadow in 32 cases(57.14％),appendiceal cellulitis with peripheral abscess in 9 cases(16.07％),peritonitis and ascites in 13 cases(23.21％),ileocecal intestinal wall thickening in 22 cases(39.29％),mesenteric lymph node enlargement in 16 cases(28.57％),reflexive intestinal stasis in ileocecal region was observed in 19 cases(33.93％).Conclusion:In the officers and soldiers with acute appendicitis who lived at high altitude for a long time,multi-slice spiral CT showed the direct manifestations of appendiceal thickening,tube wall thickening,lumen dilatation,fluid accumulation,etc.,and the indirect manifestations were periappendiceal exudation with shadow,appendiceal cellulitis with peripheral abscess,ileocecal intestinal wall thickening,reflexes of small intestine and mesenteric lymph node enlargement.Multi-slice spiral CT has the advantages of clear and intuitive,high safety,high resolution and simple operation in the diagnosis of acute appendicitis.

Objective To investigate the incidence rate,clinical characteristics,and prognosis of neonatal stroke in Shenzhen,China.Methods Led by Shenzhen Children's Hospital,the Shenzhen Neonatal Data Collaboration Network organized 21 institutions to collect 36 cases of neonatal stroke from January 2020 to December 2022.The incidence,clinical characteristics,treatment,and prognosis of neonatal stroke in Shenzhen were analyzed.Results The incidence rate of neonatal stroke in 21 hospitals from 2020 to 2022 was 1/15 137,1/6 060,and 1/7 704,respectively.Ischemic stroke accounted for 75％(27/36);boys accounted for 64％(23/36).Among the 36 neonates,31(86％)had disease onset within 3 days after birth,and 19(53％)had convulsion as the initial presentation.Cerebral MRI showed that 22 neonates(61％)had left cerebral infarction and 13(36％)had basal ganglia infarction.Magnetic resonance angiography was performed for 12 neonates,among whom 9(75％)had involvement of the middle cerebral artery.Electroencephalography was performed for 29 neonates,with sharp waves in 21 neonates(72％)and seizures in 10 neonates(34％).Symptomatic/supportive treatment varied across different hospitals.Neonatal Behavioral Neurological Assessment was performed for 12 neonates(33％,12/36),with a mean score of(32±4)points.The prognosis of 27 neonates was followed up to around 12 months of age,with 44％(12/27)of the neonates having a good prognosis.Conclusions Ischemic stroke is the main type of neonatal stroke,often with convulsions as the initial presentation,involvement of the middle cerebral artery,sharp waves on electroencephalography,and a relatively low neurodevelopment score.Symptomatic/supportive treatment is the main treatment method,and some neonates tend to have a poor prognosis.

Objective To design a prescription statistics prevention system to enhance the audit ability of the hospital.Methods The prescription statistics prevention system was designed based on intelligent analysis technology and developed with B/S architecture and IntelliJ IDEA,which used JAVA language for front-end programming and C language for back-end programming and had the functions for suspicious event locating and data retrieving,retrieved data translating,access tool monitoring and risk treatment.Results The system with high stability could be used for operation data monitoring,analysis and on-demand alarm of 7 key operation systems and 13 servers of the hospital.Conclusion The system developed enhances the hospital for preventing prescription statistics,and provides an effective means of supervision for the operational and disciplinary authorities.[Chinese Medical Equipment Journal,2024,45(5):47-51]
