Tacrolimus is an immunosuppressant that was clinically used for organ transplantation in the 1990s. In the early 2000s, tacrolimus began to be used to treat pediatric kidney diseases in China. This article reviews the therapeutic effects, clinical dosages, and treatment methods of tacrolimus in the treatment of steroid-resistant, steroid-dependent, frequently relapsing, different pathological types, and monogenic mutation-related childhood nephrotic syndrome. It explores the clinical guiding role of machine learning in tacrolimus treatment for childhood nephrotic syndrome, aiming to provide references for the clinical research and application of tacrolimus in pediatric kidney diseases.

AIM: To report three cases of viral keratitis caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2(SARS-CoV-2).METHODS: Slit lamp, intraocular pressure, corneal fluorescence staining, anterior segment photography, in vivo confocal microscopy(IVCM), and routine fundus screening were performed in the three confirmed patients. Treatment involved Ganciclovir, artificial tears and glucocorticoid eye drops.RESULTS: Three patients with SARS-CoV-2 keratitis(SCK)recovered well after standard treatment.CONCLUSION: SARS-CoV-2 keratitis typically presents as corneal subepithelial infiltration and can result in a decrease in corneal subepithelial nerve fiber density and an increase in dendritic cells(DC). Antiviral therapy in combination with glucocorticoid has proven to be effective.

Objective:To comparatively analyze the changes regulation of death attitude and death education needs for undergraduate nursing students in different grades.Methods:From March to June in 2019, 766 undergraduate nursing students from Batch 2015 to Batch 2018 of a medical college were collected in cluster sampling. The investigation was conducted by using the scale of Death Attitude Profile-revised in Chinese version and the scale of death education needs. SPSS 22.0 was used for statistical analysis, LSD test for measurement data, and chi-square test for counting data.Results:There were increasing trends of scores from freshman to junior in dimensions of fear of death, approach-oriented death acceptance and escape-oriented death acceptance ( P < 0.05), and the scores decreased in senior, but without statistical difference compared with junior ( P > 0.05). In neutral death acceptance dimension, the score decreased significantly in the second year ( P = 0.001), and then returned back to the original level in the fourth year. No significantly statistical difference was found in scores of different grades in death escape dimension ( P = 0.038). The score of death education need in the fourth year was the highest ( P < 0.05) and was positively correlated with the score of neutral death acceptance dimension ( P = 0.007). Conclusion:With the increase of school year, nursing students' positive attitude for death demonstrates positive trend, while the level of negative attitude of death are becoming balanced. The fourth year is suggested to be the right time to conduct death education immediately.
