Objective To observe and analyze the clinical efficacy of Hewei Jiangni Formula in treating patients with non-erosive gastroesophageal reflux disease(NERD)and cold-heat complex syndrome and explore its regulatory mechanism on visceral hypersensitivity.Methods Sixty patients with NERD and cold-heat complex syndrome diagnosed at the Gastroenterology Clinic of Dongfang Hospital,Beijing University of Chinese Medicine from January 2021 to Decemer 2023,were randomly divided into the Hewei Jiangni Formula group and omeprazole group,with 30 patients per group.The Hewei Jiangni Formula group was treated with Hewei Jiangni Formula and omeprazole enteric-coated tablets placebo,whereas the omeprazole group was treated with omeprazole enteric-coated tablets and Hewei Jiangni Formula placebo.The treatment period was scheduled to last for 8 weeks.The primary outcome indicators(Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease Quality of Life Questionnaire(GERD-Q)scale score:response rate,total score,and single symptom score)and secondary outcome indicators(traditional Chinese medicine clinical scores scale)were recorded before and after treatment in both groups.Ten healthy individuals were recruited from the Physical Examination Center of Dongfang Hospital,Beijing University of Chinese Medicine,as the healthy control group.The expression levels of mast cell tryptase(MCT),protease-activated receptor 2(PAR2),transient receptor potential vanilloid 1(TRPV1),substance P(SP),calcitonin gene-related peptide(CGRP),5-hydroxytryptamine(5-HT),and 5-hydroxytryptamine 3 receptor(5-HT3R)were recorded.These indicators were then used for the following comparisons:the NERD patients vs.the healthy group before treatment;the Hewei Jiangni Formula group vs.the omeprazole group after treatment;the intra-group comparisons within both NERD groups.Changes in serum levels of these indicators were observed before and after treatment in both NERD groups.Results According to the GERD-Q scores before and after treatment,the effective rate was 90.00%in the Hewei Jiangni Formula group and 86.67%in the omeprazole group,with no significant differences.Both groups exhibited improved symptoms of heartburn,regurgitation,upper abdominal pain,and sleep disorders caused by heartburn or regurgitation(P<0.05);however,neither group exhibited significantly improved nausea(P>0.05).Before treatment,MCT,PAR2,TRPV1,SP,CGRP,5-HT,and 5-HT3R expression levels in both NERD groups were significantly higher than those in the healthy control group(P<0.05).After treatment with Hewei Jiangni Formula or omeprazole enteric-coated tablets,the expression levels of these indicators decreased in both groups(P<0.05).The omeprazole group was superior to Hewei Jiangni Formula in reducing 5-HT3R expression(P<0.05).Conclusion Hewei Jiangni Formula significantly improves the symptoms of patients with NERD and cold-heat complex syndrome,with efficacy comparable to that of omeprazole enteric-coated tablets.It is superior to omeprazole in improving symptoms of spleen yang deficiency,such as loss of appetite,fatigue,borborygmus with loose stools,and cold extremities.Hewei Jiangni Formula reduces MCT,PAR2,TRPV1,SP,CGRP,5-HT,and 5-HT3R expression levels,regulates related signaling pathways,and alleviates visceral hypersensitivity.

Objective To explore the clinical efficacy of biplane double-supported screw fixation(BDSF)in the treatment of femoral neck fracture(FNF)and the influencing factors of surgical failure.Methods A total of 360 patients with FNF hospitalized in our hospital from November 2022 to May 2024 were selected as the research objects.According to the random number table method,the patients were divided into the observation group[application of BDSF under the multi-disciplinary treatment(MDT)and green channel mode]and the control group[application of cannulated compression screw(CCS)fixation under the MDT and green channel mode],with 180 cases in each group;According to the failure of surgical treatment or fixation in the observation group,the patients were further divided into the surgical failure group(n=50)and effective surgery group(n=130).The risk factors were analyzed by multivariate Logistic regression.The establishment and fitting of the model were analyzed by Logistic regression.The discrimination,prediction accuracy and clinical value of the model were evaluated by receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve,calibration curve and decision curve analysis(DCA)curve,respectively.Results Compared with the control group,the observation group had shorter operation time and hospitalization time(P<0.05),less intraoperative blood loss and fewer intraoperative fluoroscopy times(P<0.05),lower proportion of patients with avascular necrosis of femoral head and fixation failure(P<0.05),and higher Harris hip score 24 months after operation(P<0.05).Garden classification,fracture line location,reduction quality and preoperative traction were the independent influencing factors of surgical failure(P<0.05).The ROC curve analysis showed that the area under the curve(AUC)of the model to predict the risk of surgical failure was 0.867(95%CI:0.751 to 0.946).The calibration curve analysis results showed that the predicted probability of the model was approximately equal to the actual probability,with a Brier value of 0.095.DCA analysis results showed that the threshold probability of the model was 0.1 to 0.9,indicating a high net profit.Conclusion BDSF has a good effect in FNF surgery,which can shorten the operation time and hospitalization time,reduce the number of intraoperative fluoroscopy and bleeding,which is more conducive to hip joint function recovery.Garden classification,fracture line location,reduction quality,and preoperative traction are all the independent influencing factors for surgical failure.

Protrusive facial deformities, characterized by the forward displacement of the teeth and/or jaws beyond the normal range, affect a considerable portion of the population. The manifestations and morphological mechanisms of protrusive facial deformities are complex and diverse, requiring orthodontists to possess a high level of theoretical knowledge and practical experience in the relevant orthodontic field. To further optimize the correction of protrusive facial deformities, this consensus proposes that the morphological mechanisms and diagnosis of protrusive facial deformities should be analyzed and judged from multiple dimensions and factors to accurately formulate treatment plans. It emphasizes the use of orthodontic strategies, including jaw growth modification, tooth extraction or non-extraction for anterior teeth retraction, and maxillofacial vertical control. These strategies aim to reduce anterior teeth and lip protrusion, increase chin prominence, harmonize nasolabial and chin-lip relationships, and improve the facial profile of patients with protrusive facial deformities. For severe skeletal protrusive facial deformities, orthodontic-orthognathic combined treatment may be suggested. This consensus summarizes the theoretical knowledge and clinical experience of numerous renowned oral experts nationwide, offering reference strategies for the correction of protrusive facial deformities.

Objective:To improve the understanding of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) secondary to Burkitt lymphoma (BL) in children.Methods:The clinical data of a child with ALL secondary to BL who was admitted to Children's Hospital Affiliated to Zhengzhou University in June 2024 were retrospectively analyzed, and the relevant literature was reviewed.Results:The patient was a boy with the age of 8 years and 8 months. He presented with a neck mass at the age of 4 years and 6 months, and pathological examination revealed a diagnosis of BL with clinical stage Ⅲ. The patient was given regular chemotherapy according to the Chinese Children's Lymphoma Group non-Hodgkin lymphoma mature B-cell 2017 protocol-B2 regimen. PET-CT showed recurrence of lymphoma in 6 months after the suspension of treatment. The patient was given with placement of 125I particles, oral etoposide and dexamethasone, and traditional Chinese medicine. The patient was admitted to hospital at the age of 8 years and 8 months with fever and skin hemorrhagic spots, bone marrow morphology, immunology, cytogenetics and molecular biology typing indicated a diagnosis of B-ALL with TCF3::PBX1 fusion gene. The patient received induction chemotherapy according to the Chinese Children's Leukemia Group-ALL 2018 protocol. A review of bone marrow cytology achieved complete remission on the 33rd day of chemotherapy, and minimal residual disease detected by flow cytometry indicated less than 0.01%. TCF3::PBX1 fusion gene was negative. Conclusions:ALL secondary to BL in children is rare, and the ALL treatment regimens are effective.

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 study the composition,abundance,and functional profiles of the intestinal microbiota in infants and young children with Kawasaki disease(KD)during the acute phase,and to explore the potential role of intestinal microbiota in the pathogenesis of KD.Methods Six children aged 0-3 years with acute KD admitted to the Department of Cardiology,Children's Hospital Affiliated to Capital Institute of Pediatrics from July to October 2021 were prospectively included as the KD group.Six age-and sex-matched healthy children who underwent physical examinations at the hospital during the same period were selected as the healthy control group.Metagenomics sequencing was used to detect and compare the differences in the microflora structure and functional profiles of fecal samples between the two groups.Results There were significant differences in the structural composition and diversity of intestinal microbiota between the two groups(P<0.05).Compared with the healthy control group,the abundance of Listeria_monocytogenes(family Listeriaceae and genus Listeria),Bifidobacterium_rousetti,Enterococcus_avium,and Enterococcus_hirae was significantly higher in the intestinal microbiota in the KD group(|LDA|>2.0,P<0.05).The steroid degradation and apoptosis pathways were significantly upregulated in the KD group compared with the healthy control group,while the Bacterial_secretion_system,Sulfur_metabolism,Butanoate_metabolism,Benzoate_degradation,β-alanine metabolism,and α-linolenic acid pathways were significantly downregulated(|LDA|>2,P<0.05).Conclusions There are significant differences in the structure and diversity of intestinal microbiota between children aged 0-3 years with acute KD and healthy children,suggesting that disturbances in intestinal microbiota occur during the acute phase of KD.In particular,Listeria_monocytogenes,Enterococcus_avium,and Enterococcus_hirae may be involved in the pathogenesis of KD through steroid degradation and apoptosis pathways.

Objective To investigate the efficacy of different approaches for screw internal fixation in the treatment of posterior ankle fractures in trimalleolar fracture,and the complications was analyzed.Methods A prospective study was conducted on 80 patients with Haraguchi type Ⅰ posterior ankle fracture who admitted to our hospital from May 2019 to October 2020,they were randomly divided into group A and group B according to a random number table method,with 40 cases in each group.Patients in group A were treated with percutaneous anterior to posterior screw internal fixation for posterior ankle fractures,while patients in group B were treated with percutaneous posterolateral approach limited exposure and reduction screw internal fixation for posterior ankle fractures.The surgical indicators,postoperative recovery,American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society(AOFAS)score,ROM score of ankle joint at the last follow-up,postoperative evaluation,and postoperative complications of patients between the two groups were compared.Results There was no statistically significant difference in operation time,complete weight-bearing time,or fracture healing time of patients between the two groups(P>0.05),but the fluoroscopy times of patients in group A was less than that in group B,the intraoperative bleeding volume and fibular incision length were less/shorter than those in group B(P<0.05).The AOFAS scores of patients 6 months after surgery and at the last follow-up in both groups increased compared with those 3 months after surgery,and the AOFAS scores at the last follow-up were higher than those 6 months after surgery,the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).The AOFAS scores of patients 6 months after surgery and at the last follow-up in group B were higher than those in group A(P<0.05).There was no statistically significant difference in ROM score of ankle joints(plantar flexion,valgus,varus,dorsiflexion)of patients between the two groups at the last follow-up(P>0.05).There was no statistically significant difference in poor screw position,degree of pain,walking condition,or squatting condition of patients between the two groups(P>0.05).However,the reduction quality of posterior ankle fractures of patients in group B was better than that in group A(Z=4.248,P<0.05).No complications such as loosening of internal fixation or loss of fracture reduction occurred in both groups.Conclusion Both percutaneous anterior to posterior screw internal fixation and percutaneous posterolateral approach limited exposure and reduction screw internal fixation have good efficacy for posterior ankle fractures in trimalleolar fracture,with high safty.The former has more fluoroscopy times and less intraoperative bleeding,while the latter is better in improving ankle joint function and fracture reduction.

This study was aimed at investigating the effect of lymphocyte activation gene-3(LAG3)on liver B lymphocyte subsets and their functions in WT and LAG3-KO mice infected with Echinococcus multilocularis(E.multilocularis).In a mouse model of E.multilocularis infection,the expression and localization of CD19 and α-SMA in liver were detected by immu nohistochemistry.CD80,CD86 and MHC-Ⅱ molecules expressed on B cells and their subsets in mice liver were detected by flow cytometry.After 12 weeks of infection,the area and percentage of CD19 in LAG3-KO group was slightly higher than that in WT group,but the difference was not statistically(t=-1.241、-1.237,P＞0.05).The area and percentage of a-SMA in LAG3-KO group was higher than that in WT group(t=-3.224、-3.227,P＜0.05).The proportion of CD80 and MHC-Ⅱ molecules expressed on liver B cells in LAG3-KO group was up-regulated(t=-2.379,-3.321,P＜0.05).The percentage of liver B2 cells in LAG3-KO group was higher than that in WT group(t=-2.695,P＜0.05).The expression of CD80 on Blb cells in LAG3-KO group was significantly up-regulated(t=-5.315,P＜0.001).The proportion of CD80 of B2 cells in LAG3-KO group was lower than that in WT group(t=2.806,P＜0.05).The expression of MHC-Ⅱ molecule in B2 cells in LAG3-KO group was up-regulated(t=-4.227,P＜0.01).It is suggested that LAG3 molecules affected the B cell subsets and func-tion of mouse liver in the middle stage of E.multilocularis infection,especially B2 lymphocytes.LAG3 molecule exerted an in-hibitory effect on the activation of B cells and the expression of MHC-class Ⅱ molecules,suggesting that it may be involved in B cell exhaustion caused by E.multilocularis.
