This report described a case of neonatal alloimmune thrombocytopenic purpura presenting with generalized petechiae. The infant was admitted at Nanfang Hospital, Southern Medical University on March 30, 2022, following detection of wide spread petechiae 30 minutes post-delivery. Blood tests revealed severe thrombocytopenia (platelet count 5×10 9/L) with leukopenia, decreased hemoglobin, and hepatomegaly, though coagulation function remained normal. Initial treatments—random donor platelet transfusion, and intravenous immunoglobulin—proved ineffective. Pretreatment blood samples showed strongly positive platelet antibodies (3+). Further typing confirmed human leukocyte antigen (HLA) antibodies in both infant and mother, establishing HLA-negative neonatal alloimmune thrombocytopenia. HLA-negative platelet transfusion resolved petechiae and normalized platelet counts, enabling discharge on postnatal day 14. Subdural hemorrhage was detected on MRI at day 29. Platelet levels remained normal at six-month follow-up, with age-appropriate development confirmed at 2.5 years.

Chronic hepatitis B（CHB）is one of the major challenges in the global public health field. As of 2022，approximately 254 million people worldwide were infected with the hepatitis B virus（HBV）. CHB is one of the main causes of liver cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma（HCC）. Nucleos（t）ide analogs（NAs）and interferon therapy can delay the progression of liver fibrosis by inhibiting viral replication，but they cannot completely avoid the problem of heterogeneous treatment responses. Some patients are in a state of low-level viremia（LLV）during treatment. The persistent LLV state can induce chronic inflammation and the progression of liver fibrosis，ultimately increase the risk of HCC. In patients with poor treatment responses，the continuous active viral replication can induce immune disorders，accelerate the evolution of fibrosis to the decompensated stage of liver cirrhosis，and increase the risk of patient death. This article aims to review the definition，mechanisms，and impact on treatment outcomes of LLV and suboptimal response based on the latest research，provide a basis for optimizing antiviral therapy for CHB.

Objective:Radiotherapy is the primary treatment for nasopharyngeal carcinoma,but it frequently leads to radiotherapy-induced temporal lobe injury(RTLI).Magnetic resonance imaging(MRI)is the main diagnostic method for RTLI after radiotherapy for nasopharyngeal carcinoma,but it is prone to missed diagnoses.This study aims to investigate the causes of missed diagnoses of RTLI in nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients undergoing MRI after radiotherapy. Methods:Clinical and MRI data from nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients diagnosed and treated with radiotherapy at Xiangya Hospital of Central South University,from January 2010 to April 2021,were collected.Two radiologists reviewed all head and neck MRIs(including nasopharyngeal and brain MRIs)before and after radiotherapy of identify cases of late delayed response-type RTLI for the first time.If the original diagnosis of the initial RTLI in nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients did not report temporal lobe lesions,it was defined as a missed diagnosis.The first diagnosis of RTLI cases was divided into a missed diagnosis group and a non-missed diagnosis group.Clinical and imaging data were compared between the 2 groups,and multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to identify independent risk factors for MRI missed diagnoses of initial RTLI. Results:A total of 187 nasopharyngeal carcinoma with post-radiotherapy RTLI were included.The original diagnostic reports missed 120 cases and accurately diagnosed 67 cases,with an initial RTLI diagnosis accuracy rate of 35.8%and a missed diagnosis rate of 64.2%.There were statistically significant differences between the missed diagnosis group and the non-missed diagnosis group in terms of lesion size,location,presence of contralateral temporal lobe lesions,white matter high signal,cystic degeneration,hemorrhage,fluid attenuated inversion recovery(FLAIR),and examination site(all P<0.05).Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that lesions≤25 mm,non-enhancing lesions,lesions without cystic degeneration or hemorrhage,lesions located only in the medial temporal lobe,and MRI examination only of the nasopharynx were independent risk factors for missed MRI diagnosis of initial RTLI(all P<0.05). Conclusion:The missed diagnosis of initial RTLI on MRI is mainly related to lesion size and location,imaging characteristics,and MRI examination site.

Objective To explore the effects and mechanism of Baitouweng Decoction in intestinal mucosal healing in mice with ulcerative colitis(UC)based on RIPK1/RIPK3/MLKL signaling pathway.Methods Totally 30 C57BL/6 male mice were randomly divided into control group,model group,Baitouweng Decoction group,infliximab group and combination group(Baitouweng Decoction+infliximab),with 6 mice in each group.A mouse model of UC was established by free administration of 3.5%sodium gluconate sulfate solution for 7 days.After modeling,Baitouweng Decoction group was given 8 g/kg Baitouweng Decoction solution by gavage daily,while the infliximab group was given 5 mg/kg infliximab intraperitoneal injection,the combination group was given synchronous gastric and intraperitoneal injection,while the control group and model group were given equal volume of normal saline by gavage for 7 consecutive days.The body mass of mice was recorded daily,fecal characteristics were observed,and disease activity index(DAI)score was performed,colon length was measured after intervention,ELISA was used to detect the contents of serum interleukin-6(IL-6)and tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α),RT-qPCR was used to detect mRNA expressions of RIPK1,RIPK3 and MLKL in colon tissue,Western blot and immunofluorescence staining were used to detect the expressions of RIPK1,RIPK3 and MLKL protein in colon tissue.Results Compared with the control group,the model group mice showed a decrease in body mass(P<0.01),an increase in DAI score(P<0.01),a shortened colon length(P<0.01),and an increase in serum IL-6 and TNF-α content(P<0.01);colonic mucosal was destructed,with disappearance of crypts and glandular structures,extensive infiltration of inflammatory cells,and increased pathological score of colon tissue(P<0.01);the mRNA and protein expressions of RIPK1,RIPK3 and MLKL in colon tissue increased(P<0.01,P<0.05).Compared with the model group,the body mass of mice in each treatment group increased(P<0.01),and the DAI score decreased(P<0.01),colon length increased(P<0.01),and the contents of serum IL-6 and TNF-α decreased(P<0.05,P<0.01);the destruction of the colonic mucosal barrier was reduced,the pathological score of colon tissue was reduced(P<0.05);the expressions of RIPK1,RIPK3 and MLKL mRNA and protein in colon tissue decreased(P<0.05,P<0.01).Conclusion Baitouweng Decoction can alleviate intestinal mucosal damage and inflammation in UC mice,and its mechanism may be related to the inhibition of the RIPK1/RIPK3/MLKL signaling pathway.

Objective To investigate the effect of nicotine on coagulation in intestinal ischemia-reperfusion injury rats.Methods 32 male Sprague-dawley rats,weighing 250-300g,were randomly divided into 4 groups(n=8):sham operation group(S),intestinal ischemia-reperfusion(IR)group,nicotine(NIC)group,α7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor(α7nAchR)antagonist group α-bungarotoxin(α-BGT)group.Intestinal IR was induced by clamping superior mesenteric artery for 45min and 120min of reperfusion.In group NIC nicotine 400μg/kg was injected intraperitoneally at 30min before superior mesenteric artery occlusion.In group α-BGT 1μg/kg was injected intraperitoneally at 15min before superior mesenteric artery occlusion.Plasma tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α),tissue factor(TF),antithrombin(AT),tissue plasminogen activator(tPA),fiber plasminogen activator inhibitor-1(PAI-1),D-dimer levels and platelet count(PLT)were measured after 120min reperfusion.Chiu's count was used to assess the changes in intestinal mucosal pathlolgical morphology.Results Compared with group S and group NIC,the plasma TNF-α,TF,tPA,PAI-1 and D-dimer levels were significantly increased,and plasma AT level and platelet count were significantly decreased,in group IR and group α-BGT(P<0.05),Chiu's scores were significantly increased(P<0.05).Conclusion Nicotine can inhibit the excessive activation of coagulation function in intestinal ischemia-reperfusion injury rats.Its mechanism may be related to activation of cholinergic antiinflammatory pathway,reducing the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines thereby reducing endothelial cell injury.

Perianal Paget's disease (PPD) is a rare malignant cutaneous tumor. This paper reported a case of PPD complicated by lung adenocarcinoma and anal canal cancer. The patient, a 76-year-old female, had been experiencing recurrent lower abdominal pain and perianal pruritus for the past 5 years. Upon physical examination, a cauliflower-like neoplasm in size of 5 cm×6 cm was observed on the right perianal skin, with local skin ulceration and a small amount of fluid discharge. The left perianal skin was also involved. In thoracoknee position, a hard mass was palpable in the rectal submucosa at 5-6 points 2 cm from the anal verge. Chest CT revealed multiple lesions in both lungs, indication of metastatic tumors. Further evaluation with fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography and computed tomography (FDG-PET/CT) indicated multiple hypermetabolic nodules in the lungs, hypermetabolic lymph nodes throughout the body, early FDG uptake in a small patch of skin on the left hip, and increased FDG uptake in the anorectal region. Histopathological examination confirmed the diagnosis of lung adenocarcinoma. This resulted in the patient being diagnosed with PPD, lung adenocarcinoma, anal canal cancer, and systemic multiple lymph node metastasis. The combination of PPD with gastrointestinal tumors and other metachronous malignant tumors is highly prevalent. Colonoscopy, FDG-PET/CT, histopathology, and immunohistochemistry play crucial roles in early identification of local lymph node and distant involvement, facilitating the evaluation of potential malignant tumors and differential diagnosis. Treating methods for PPD are currently diverse, including postoperative combined or single chemotherapy, radiotherapy, targeted therapy, and photodynamic therapy. As trerapeutical options continue to develop, the extent and efficacy of surgery need to be reassessed.

OBJECTIVE To establish the fingerprint of Sophora flavescens， and to screen differential components and determine their contents.　METHODS HPLC fingerprints of 12 batches of S. flavescens were established by using Similarity Evaluation System of Chromatographic Fingerprints of TCM （2012 edition）； common peaks were identified and their similarities were evaluated. Chemical pattern recognition analysis [cluster analysis （CA），principal component analysis （PCA） and orthogonal partial least squares-discriminant analysis（OPLS-DA）] were performed with SIMCA 14.1 and SPSS 23.0 software， and differential components which influenced the quality of S. flavescens were screen with variable importance in the projection（VIP）＞1 as standard. Meanwhile， the contents of 4 kinds of differential components were determined by the same HPLC method.　RESULTS There were 17 common peaks in the fingerprints of 12 batches of S. flavescens，and their similarities were all higher than 0.96. A total of 6 common peaks were identified， i.e. oxymatrine （peak 1）， oxysophocarpine （peak 2）， matrine （peak 10）， trifolirhizin （peak 14）， kurarinone （peak 16） and norkurarinone （peak 17）. Results of CA， PCA and OPLS-DA showed that 12 batches of S. flavescens were divided into 3 categories according to producing area， i.e. S1-S7 （Shangzhou District of Shaanxi Province） were grouped into one category， S8-S10 （Yichuan County of Henan Province） into one category and S11-S12 （Chifeng City of Inner Mongolia） into one category. VIPs of matrine， norkurarinone， kurarinone and oxysophocarpine and the chemical components represented by peak 11 and 9 were all greater than 1. The contents of matrine， norkurarinone， kurarinone and oxysophocarpine in 12 batches of S. flavescens were 2.65-4.93， 1.54-3.44， 9.63-12.94 and 5.08-6.10 mg/g， respectively. CONCLUSIONS HPLC fingerprint of S. flavescens is established successfully in the study， and can be used to screen 6 differential components by combining with chemical pattern recognition analysis， which can provide reference for quality control of S. flavescens.

Objective:To explore the effect of clinical conventional fractionated dose radiation on the expression levels of immunogenic cell death (ICD) related proteins in patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC).Methods:A total of 38 newly-treated NPC patients admitted to the Affiliated Cancer Hospital of Guizhou Medical University from November 2020 to December 2021 were enrolled, all of whom received induction chemotherapy and concurrent chemoradiotherapy, and another 20 healthy volunteers were selected as controls for a prospective study. The contents of ICD related proteins, namely calreticulin (CRT), high mobility group box 1 protein (HMGB-1) and heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) and the proportion of dendritic cell (DC) in the peripheral blood of patients were detected before treatment, after induction chemotherapy and after concurrent chemoradiotherapy, respectively. The correlation between the above indicators, general clinical data and short-term efficacy was analyzed by statistical methods such as t-test and analysis of variance (ANOVA). Results:The levels of HSP70 and HMGB-1 in peripheral blood of NPC patients before treatment were higher than those of healthy controls (both P<0.05). After concurrent chemoradiotherapy, the content of CRT was significantly higher than that before treatment ( P<0.05), whereas the difference before and after induction chemotherapy and the difference before and after concurrent chemoradiotherapy were not significantly correlated with the short-term efficacy of NPC patients. HSP70 level was significantly decreased after concurrent chemoradiotherapy ( P<0.001). There were no significant differences in the content of HMGB-1 after induction chemotherapy and concurrent chemoradiotherapy (both P>0.05). Conclusion:NPC patients receiving TPF regimen (docetaxel+cisplatin+fluorouracil) for induction chemotherapy and sequential cisplatin concurrent chemotherapy may induce ICD in NPC cells, and CRT has potential value in reflecting the clinical efficacy of NPC.
