OBJECTIVE To investigate the effect of Huangqin decoction （HQD）-based self-assembled nanoparticles （SAN） co-loaded with terbinafine （TBF） （TBF-HQD-SAN NPs） on the transdermal absorption of TBF. METHODS High-speed centrifugation combined with dialysis was used to separate HQD-SAN， and TBF-HQD-SAN NPs were obtained by loading TBF using the ultrasound magnetic stirring method； the particle size distribution， Zeta potential and polydispersity index （PDI） of the nanoparticle were characterized， and the encapsulation efficiency （EE） and drug loading （DL） of TBF were determined； using in vitro and in vivo transdermal experiments， the differences in transdermal performance between TBF-HQD-SAN NPs and TBF raw materials， as well as TBF and HQD-SAN physical mixture （TBF-HQD-SAN PM）， were compared and analyzed. RESULTS TBF- HQD-SAN NPs were spherical with a particle size of （177.60±2.57） nm， a PDI of 0.197 4±0.007 9， and a Zeta potential of （－14.63±0.85） mV. The EE and DL of TBF were （99.49±0.71）% and （3.22±0.10）% ， respectively. In vitro transdermal experiments， compared with TBF raw materials， the steady-state permeation rate （Jss） and skin retention of TBF-HQD-SAN NPs increased by 3.34 times and 27.56 times， respectively （P＜0.05）； compared with TBF-HQD-SAN PM， its Jss and skinretention were increased by 2.04 times and 7.44 times， respectively （P＜0.05）. In vivo transdermal experiments 69号） showed that， the area under the drug-time curve and the maximum concentration of TBF-HQD-SAN NPs increased by 2.13 times and 2.06 times respectively compared to TBF raw materials， and increased by 1.59 times and 1.65 times respectively compared to TBF-HQD-SAN PM （P＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS TBF-HQD-SAN NPs can significantly enhance the in vitro and in vivo transdermal absorption efficiency and skin retention of TBF.

[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.

Interleukin- (IL) 23 drives pathogenic differentiation of Th17 cells via the JAK2-STAT3 signaling pathway, upregulates IL-17A/IL-22 expression, and disrupts intestinal barrier integrity, thereby playing a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of Crohn's disease (CD). IL-23p19 inhibitors—exemplified by risankizumab, mirikizumab, and guselkumab—precisely block this pathway. Key phase 3 trials have demonstrated their efficacy in CD, showing significant clinical benefits in patients refractory to conventional therapies or biologics, with no new safety signals identified. The ultimate treatment goal for CD is deep healing (mucosal-transmural-biochemical composite remission) as defined by STRIDE II. However, current evidence exhibits critical limitations: absence of head-to-head drug comparisons, insufficient data on biologic-experienced subpopulations, and heterogeneous follow-up durations leading to uncertainties in long-term safety. Future studies require standardized head-to-head trials with enhanced subgroup analyses to optimize precision therapeutics.

Objective:To compare the dosimetric parameters under different incremental modes between intensity-modulated radiation therapy(IMRT)and volume rotation intensity-modulated therapy(VMAT)for the target area of large volume brain metastases(BMs),and to explore the better way of treating BMs based on hypofractionated stereotactic radiotherapy(HSRT)of linear accelerator.Methods:A total of 30 BMs patients who underwent IMRT at The 971th Hospital of Navy of the CPLA from 2020 to 2023 were selected.In the treatment planning system(TPS),three types of IMRT plans and VMAT plans were designed,which included uniformity plan(Planuniformity)of target area dose,uniform increased plan(Planuniform increased-dose)and incremental plan(Planincremental)within target area.In the inside of the target area,the target area of high dose(GTVh)was set,and Planuniform increased-dose and Planincremental were designed to aim at GTVh.The differences of the doses of three types of treatment plans included Planuniformity,Planuniform increased-dose and Planincremental,which were respectively designed by using IMRT and VMAT,were analyzed.The mean dose(Dmean)of the target area,the 50%and 2%exposed doses(D50%and D2%)of the target area were observed and compared.The conformity index(CI),homogeneity index(HI),gradient index(GI),and the volume percentage(V10 Gy-V40 Gy)that normal brain tissue received 10 Gy-40 Gy also were observed and compared.Results:Compared with Planuniformity of IMRT,the Dmean of GTV of Planuniform increased-dose and Planincremental of IMRT increased by 10.13%and 17.9%,with statistically significant differences(t=13.680,12.771,P＜0.05).D50%increased by 8.9%and 10.8%,with statistically significant differences(t=15.190,9.929,P＜0.05).D2%increased by 15.2%and 46.4%,with statistically significant differences(t=52.320,8.746,P＜0.05).There were no statistically significant differences in normal brain tissue V10 Gy-V40 Gy among Planuniformity,Planuniform increased-dose and Planincremental of IMRT(P＞0.05).Compared with Planuniformity of VMAT,the Dmean of GTV of Planuniform increased-dose and Planincremental of VMAT increased by 10.53%and 21.23%,with statistically significant differences(t=18.641,15.461,P＜0.05),and D50%increased by 9.1%and 13.4%,with statistically significant differences(t=11.382,10.952,P＜0.05),and D2%increased by 16.4%and 48.8%,with statistically significant differences(t=56.471,8.685,P＜0.05),respectively.There were no statistically significant differences in normal brain tissue V10 Gy-V40 Gy among Planuniformity,Planuniform increased-dose and Planincremental of VMAT(P＞0.05).The normal brain tissue V20 Gy,V30 Gy and V40 Gy of Planuniform increased-dose and Planincremental of IMRT were respectively less than those of VMAT,and the differences of them between IMRT and VMAT were significant(tPlan uniform increased-dose=2.112,2.215,2.444,tPlan incremental=2.323,2.939,3.145,P＜0.05).There were no statistically significant difference in D2%,Dmean,and D50%between IMRT and VMAT(P＞0.05).Conclusion:On the premise of ensuring the safety of normal brain tissue at the edge of the target area,the synchronously increasing of the central dose of the target area will not significantly increase the dose for normal brain tissue.Both IMRT and VMAT can meet the requirements of increment in the inside of the target area,and VMAT has slightly better increment and higher efficiency within target area.The incremental of VMAT target area is slightly better,which also has better efficiency,while the enhancement effect of the dose of target area of Planincremental is better than that of the Planuniform increased-dose.The Plan incremental of VMAT is more suitable for HSRT treatment for BMs.

Objective:To understand the clinical manifestations, laboratory characteristics, and treatment of Staphylococcus aureus ( Sa) infection in children, and explore the predictive value of lymphocyte count, neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio(NLR), and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein to albumin ratio(CAR) in patient with secondary bloodstream infection(BSI). Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on 72 children with Sa infection admitted to the Nanchong Hospital of Beijing Anzhen Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University from January 2020 to April 2024. Clinical data including basic information, drug resistance, antibiotic treatment were collected. Differences in laboratory test results and inflammatory indicators were analyzed. The influencing factors of Staphylococcus aureus bacteraemia(SAB) in pediatric patients were analyzed using univariate/multivariate Logistic regression and correlation analysis. The predictive value was analyzed by receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) and area under curve (AUC). Results:Seventy-two patients were selected, of whom 60 (83.33%) had skin and soft tissue infections (SSTIs), mainly community-associated Staphylococcus aureus(CA-SA)(50 cases), including 16 community-associated methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (CA-MRSA) cases (32.00%, 16/50). The detection rate of MRSA was 37.50% (27/72). The resistance rates of Sa to penicillin, clindamycin, and erythromycin were 97.22%(70/72), 69.44%(50/72), and 69.44%(50/72), respectively. Compared with the SSTIs group, the levels of lymphocyte count in children with bone and joint infections were significantly lower, while NLR and CAR levels were higher ( P<0.05). Fourteen patients had secondary SAB. In the secondary SAB group, lymphocyte counts were lower, while inflammatory indicators (NLR, CAR), and D-dimer were higher. CAR and NLR are positively correlated with the occurrence of bloodstream infections ( P<0.05). CAR ( OR=4.866, 95% CI: 1.37-17.25) and NLR ( OR=1.293, 95% CI: 1.032-1.620) were independent risk factors for secondary bloodstream infection, and ROC curve results showed that the combination of the two indicators had a higher sensitivity (0.929) and AUC (0.909) than individual testing. After undergoing effective treatment, the levels of CAR and NLR in the children in the secondary SAB group were significantly reduced. Wound infection patients underwent debridement treatment in 38 cases (52.78%, 38/72), while antibiotic treatment still primarily used first- and second-generation cephalosporins. For patients with secondary bloodstream infection, vancomycin was the first choice. Conclusions:Children′s wound infections with Sa primarily involve skin and soft tissue infections, commonly seen in CA-SA. NLR and CAR are independent risk factors for children with secondary bloodstream infection, and their combined detection has certain value for early diagnosis.
