ObjectiveThis paper aims to observe the syndrome improvement and negative antigen conversion rate of Qingxuan Daozhi formula in the treatment of influenza in children （heat accumulation in the lung and stomach syndrome）. MethodsThrough a multi-center randomized controlled methodology design，confirmed influenza cases were collected from October 2022 to April 2023 in the pediatrics department of eight hospitals，such as Dongfang Hospital of Beijing University of Chinese Medicine. A total of 180 children with influenza and heat accumulation in the lung and stomach syndrome conforming to the standard were recruited through the clinic. The sick children meeting the inclusion criteria were randomly divided into groups by a block-randomized method. The children in the experimental group were treated with Qingxuan Daozhi formula for five days，and those in the control group were treated with Oseltamivir Phosphate Granules for five days. The primary efficacy indicator was the negative conversion rate of influenza antigen detection. Secondary efficacy indicators were the Canadian acute respiratory illness and flu scale （CARIFS） and the incidence of complications，severe cases， and critical cases. Follow-up observation was conducted on the day of enrollment，48 hours after medication，72 hours after medication， and （6+1） d after medication. ResultsOne hundred and eighty participants were randomly assigned to the experimental group （90 cases） or the control group （90 cases）. All participants were followed up during the study. Comparison of influenza antigen detection results in the primary efficacy indicators showed that the average time of negative influenza antigen conversion in the experimental group was （5.29±1.25） d，and that in the control group was （5.40±1.68） d，without a statistically significant difference. After five days of intervention，52 cases in the experimental group and 51 cases in the control group converted to negative，without a statistically significant difference. CARIFS score results in the secondary efficacy indicators showed that during 72 hours after intervention，there were statistically significant differences between the experimental group and the control group in three dimensions， including headache，muscle soreness， and the need for extra care （P<0.05）. On the （6+1） days after the intervention，the differences in both the experimental group and the control group were statistically significant in 10 dimensions， including sore throat，bad sleep，uncomfortable feeling，poor spirit and fatigue，crying more than usual，the need for extra care，symptom，function，influence on parents，and total score （P<0.05）. The comparison results within the group in the dimensional scores of symptom， function， and influence on parents，as well as the CARIFS total score showed that with the delay of follow-up time，scores of both groups decreased significantly，with a statistically significant difference （P<0.01）. Inter-group comparison results showed that the mean score of the experimental group was higher than that of the control group at the time of enrollment. With the progress of intervention，the score of the experimental group was significantly decreased compared with that of the control group. At the end of follow-up，the mean score of the experimental group was lower than that of the control group，with no statistically significant difference. In terms of the incidence of complications，severe cases， and critical cases， there were no complications，severe cases， and critical cases in the two groups，without a statistically significant difference. ConclusionThe symptom improvement effect and negative antigen conversion rate of Qingxuan Daozhi formula in the treatment of influenza in children （heat accumulation in the lung and stomach syndrome） are not inferior to Oseltamivir Phosphate granules， and children's acceptance is better. It can be more widely used in clinical treatment of influenza in children （heat accumulation in the lung and stomach syndrome）.

Objective To investigate the protective effects of Wuling capsule on mice with autoimmune hepatitis(AIH).Methods Mice were randomly divided into control group,AIH model group,Wuling capsule low-dose group(0.5 g·kg-1·d-1),Wuling capsule middle-dose group(1.0 g·kg-1·d-1),and Wuling capsule high-dose group(2.0 g·kg-1·d-1),with 10 mice in each group.The Wuling capsule groups were administered with Wuling capsule suspension of different doses orally at a volume of 10 mL/kg once daily;the control group and AIH model group were given the same volume of saline by gavage.After 14 d of administration,mice in the AIH model group and Wuling capsule groups were injected with concanavalin A(20 mg/kg)via the tail vein,and the serum,liver,and spleen were collected 8 h after injection.Serum alanine transaminase(ALT)and aspartate transaminase(AST)levels were measured using an automatic biochemical analyzer;hematoxylin-eosin staining was used to observe the pathological structure of the liver tissue;the contents of interleukin(IL)-6,IL-4,and tumor necrosis factor(TNF)-α in liver were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay,and quantitative polymerase chain reaction was used to determine the relative mRNA expression levels of IL-6,IL-4,TNF-α,Toll-like receptor 4(TLR4),and nuclear factor κB(NF-κB)in the liver.Fluorescence immunoassay was used to analyze the expression and nuclear translocation of NF-κB p65 protein in the liver.Results Compared with the control group,the AIH model group showed abnormal liver morphology and structure,increased serum ALT and AST levels,increased contents of IL-4,IL-6,and TNF-α in the liver,upregulated mRNA expression levels of IL-6,IL-4,TNF-α,TLR4,and NF-κB in the liver,and increased nuclear entry of NF-κB p65.Wuling capsule significantly improved the pathological structure of the liver in AIH mice,reduced serum ALT and AST levels,decreased the contents of IL-4,IL-6,and TNF-α in the liver and the mRNA expression levels of TLR4,NF-κB,IL-4,IL-6,and inhibited the nuclear activation of NF-κB p65.Conclusion Wuling capsule has significant protective effects on AIH mice,which may be related to the TLR4/NF-κB signaling pathway.

As a new manner of cell death,cuproptosis depends on the accumulation of copper ions in cells.Copper ion is an essential trace element in normal physiological state of organisms.The excess of free copper in cells not only has toxic effect on normal cells,but also plays its specific killing function on tumor cells.Copper transporter 1(CTR1)is a key transporter of transmembrane uptake of copper ions by cells.As a regulator of cuproptosis,its mutation and expression changes in tumors have an impact on the distribution of copper ions inside and outside the cells.It may participate in multiple biological processes such as proliferation,invasion and migration of tumor cells by regulating the pathway of cuproptosis.This article reviews the cuproptosis pathway mediated by CTR1 and the potential value of CTR1 in tumor treatment,elaborates the importance of copper ion homeostasis regulation for normal life activities and the mechanism of CTR1 in regulating cuproptosis,and discusses the potential value of CTR1 as a new target for tumor therapy,so as to provide a theoretical basis for the treatment of tumor patients.

Objective To investigate the genetic characteristics of the VP1 region of Coxsackievirus A10 (CVA10) in Yunnan Province. Methods Fecal samples of suspected hand, foot and mouth disease (HFMD) were subjected to real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR for detection of enterovirus CVA10. Positive samples were subjected to VP1 gene sequence amplification and Sanger sequencing. Sequence splicing was performed with DNAstar7.1 Seqman software, and nucleotide sequence and amino acid site analysis were performed using Mega 6.0 software. Results The sequencing of VP1 gene of CVA10 obtained a sequence of 894 nucleotides, encoding 298 amino acids. Compared with the original strain, there were mainly three active amino acid mutation regions, 13-33, 141-142, and 283-285. The nucleotide difference rate between the Yunnan isolates and the reference strain ranged from 16.92% to 30.90%, and the amino acid difference rate ranged from 2.58% to 4.00%. C1 and C2 group nucleotide difference was 10.58%, and the amino acid difference rate was 1.80%. The VP1 150-176 region exhibited highly conserved characteristics. Six CVA10 strains and Sichuan strain MW178898 belonged to the C1 group of the C genotype. The other 14 CVA10 strains belonged to the C2 group. Conclusion VP1 gene mutation is active and CVA10 is an important pathogen of HFMD in Yunnan. C2 genotype of CVA10 is dominant in this study, and C1 and C2 have co-circulated in Yunnan. It is necessary to strengthen monitoring and develop multivalent vaccines containing CVA10 epidemic genotype.

Purpose To evaluate the value of multimodality MRI-based nomogram model for predicting peritumoral brain tissue invasion in atypical meningioma.Materials and Methods A total of 187 patients with pathologically diagnosed atypical meningioma in the First Affiliated Hospital Fujian Medical University from January 2018 to January 2023 were retrospectively enrolled,including 130 cases of peritumoral brain tissue invasion and 57 cases of none peritumoral brain tissue invasion.Clinical data and multimodality MRI features,including age,gender,tumor location,maximum diameter,peritumoral oedema,tumor-brain interface,lobulated sign,dural tail sign,cyst degeneration/necrosis,relative minimum apparent diffusion coefficient(rADCmin)and intratumoral susceptibility signal were analyzed.Univariate and multivariate Logistic regression analysis were performed to screen the independent predictors of peritumoral brain tissue invasion in atypical meningioma,then a multimodality MRI prediction model was constructed,and was visualized as a nomogram.The prediction performance of multimodality MRI-based nomogram model and each independent predictor were assessed using receiver operating characteristic curve.Results The maximum diameter(OR=0.705,95%CI 0.539-0.920,P=0.010),peritumoral oedema(OR=1.333,95%CI 1.095-1.624,P=0.004),tumor-brain interface(OR=5.121,95%CI 2.045-12.806,P＜0.001)and rADCmin(OR=0.126,95%CI 0.033-0.483,P=0.002)were independent predictors of peritumoral brain tissue invasion in atypical meningioma.The area under the curve,sensitivity and specificity of the multimodality MRI-based nomogram model for predicting peritumoral brain tissue invasion in atypical meningioma was 0.80(95%CI 0.73-0.88),87.69%and 66.67%,respectively.The multimodality MRI-based nomogram model showed significantly higher area under the curve than that of the maximum diameter,peritumoral oedema,tumor-brain interface and rADCmin of atypical meningioma(all Z=3.665,3.904,4.359,3.701,P＜0.05).Conclusion The multimodality MRI-based nomogram model may be helpful for the prediction of peritumoral brain tissue invasion in atypical meningioma.

Objective:To explore the occurrence and clinical characteristics of nephrogenic systemic fibrosis (NSF) induced by gadolinium-based contrast agents (GBCA).Methods:CNKI, Wanfang, VIP and PubMed databases were searched (as of October 28, 2024) and case reports on GBCA-related NSF were collected; the following information was extracted, including the publication year of the literature, country, patient gender, age, basic kidney diseases and renal replacement therapy, variety of GBCA used, exposure frequency, time of occurrence or diagnosis of NSF, clinical manifestations, pathological examination, main intervention measures and outcomes. The data were analyzed by descriptive statistics.Results:A total of 45 case reports were collected, involving 97 patients. The literature were reported mainly from the United States and published mainly in 2006 and 2007. Number of the relevant literature decreased significantly after 2008, but there were still new cases reports in China in the following years (for example, in 2023). Among the 97 patients, 53 (54.6%) were male and 44 (45.4%) were female; the age ranged from 9 to 83 years with a median age of 53 years. One patient was with severe malnutrition, while the other 96 had severe basic kidney diseases, including chronic kidney disease in 85 (88.5%) patients and acute kidney injury in 11 (11.5%) patients. Variety of GBCA exposed was described in 76 patients, including gadodiamide in 67 (88.2%) patients. Exposure frequency of GBCA before NSF occurrence was described in 88 patients, 48 (54.5%) of which were exposed only once and 23 (26.1%) were exposed twice. Time from the first GBCA exposure to the occurrence of NSF was described in 92 patients, with the shortest time of 2 days and the longest time of more than 10 years; 70.7% (65/92) occurred within 3 months after GBCA exposure. All patients had typical skin symptoms of NSF, which were confirmed by pathological examination. Among them, 43 (44.3%) had joint disorders, 9 patients had eye involvement, a few patients had cardiac fibrosis, respiratory failure, metabolic acidosis, rhabdomyolysis, muscle necrosis, etc. Follow-up information was described in 82 patients with a range of 4 months to 11 years. Among them, 21 patients (25.6%) died, mainly due to the basic kidney diseases and complications; 11 (13.4%) were severely disabled; 7 (8.5%) were mildly disabled or slowly deteriorated; 43 (52.4%) had stable disease or slightly improved condition.Conclusion:NSF caused by GBCA mainly occurs in patients with severe basic renal diseases, mostly caused by gadodiamide. Severe skin damage is often accompanied by joint involvement or even disability, and the overall prognosis is poor.

ObjectiveTo adapt the Stanford Expectations of Treatment Scale（SETS） into Chinese（C-SETS） and test the feasibility， validity and reliability of its application in patients with diarrhea-predominant irritable bowel syndrome（IBS-D） with liver-constraint and spleen-deficiency syndrome treated with traditional Chinese medicine（TCM）. MethodsWe obtained authorisation from the developer of the SETS， and followed the principle of "two-way translation" to translate the SETS by literal translation and back translation to form the C-SETS. Ninety-six IBS-D patients with liver-constraint and spleen-deficiency syndrome were enrolled as respondents and filled out C-SETS before receiving treatment； the feasibility was assessed by the recall rate， completion rate and the duration of filling out the scale； the reliability was assessed by Cronbach's α； the structural validity was assessed by exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis， and the content validity was assessed by correlation analysis. ResultsThe C-SETS consists of 10 items， with the 1st， 3rd， and 5th rating items constituting the Positive Expectations subscale， and the 2nd， 4th， and 6th rating items constituting the Negative Expectations subscale， each of which is rated on a 7-point Likert Scale. The recall of C-SETS was 100%（96/96）， the completion rate was 89.58%（86/96）； Cronbach's α for the Positive and Negative Treatment Expectations subscales were 0.845 and 0.854， respectively； exploratory factor analysis showed that the coefficient of commonality for all six entries was larger than 0.4， and that the six entries could be used by both factors to explain 77.092% of the total variance； validation factor analysis showed that the goodness-of-fit index， comparative fit index， root mean square of approximation error， canonical fit coefficient， and chi-square degrees of freedom ratio took the values of 0.943， 1.003， 0， 0.943， and 0.626， respectively； and the results of Spearman's analysis suggested that the C-SETS had good content validity. ConclusionThe C-SETS has well feasibility， reliability， and validity， which initially proves that it can be used as a tool to assess the treatment expectation of patients with IBS-D with liver-constraint and spleen-deficiency syndrome before receiving TCM treatment.

Objective A comprehensive evaluation of oral anticoagulants(OACs)was conducted using the A Quick Guideline for Drug Evaluation and Selection in Chinese Medical Institutions(the Second Edition),to provide a reference for drug selection and clinical medication decisions in medical institutions.Methods Evaluation evidence was collected,and the drugs included in the evaluation were quantified on four dimensions of clinical properties(efficiency and safety),pharmaceutical properties,economy and others.Results All oral anticoagulants included in the evaluation had a score of 70 or higher in the comprehensive evaluation,while warfarin had the highest overall score.Clinical properties and pharmacologic properties were identified as the core attributes for drug selection evaluation.When considering only these factors,edoxaban received the highest score.Conclusion OACs are the preferred option for patients requiring long-term anticoagulation therapy.Various OACs offer distinct clinical advantages.Utilizing the Guidelines(Second Edition)for oral anticoagulant selection and evaluation can offer visual evidence for drug selection and promote the scientific,rational,and safe use of drugs in clinical management.
