As the brain's resident immune cells, microglia perform crucial functions such as phagocytosis, neuronal network maintenance, and injury restoration by adopting various phenotypes. Dynamic imaging of these phenotypes is essential for accessing brain diseases and therapeutic responses. Although numerous probes are available for imaging pro-inflammatory microglia, no PET tracers have been developed specifically to visualize anti-inflammatory microglia. In this study, we present an ¹⁸F-labeled PET tracer (QTFT) that targets the P2Y₁₂, a receptor highly expressed on anti-inflammatory microglia. [¹⁸F]QTFT exhibited high binding affinity to the P2Y₁₂ (14.43 nmol/L) and superior blood-brain barrier permeability compared to other candidates. Micro-PET imaging in IL-4-induced neuroinflammation models showed higher [¹⁸F]QTFT uptake in lesions compared to the contralateral normal brain tissues. Importantly, this specific uptake could be blocked by QTFT or a P2Y₁₂ antagonist. Furthermore, [¹⁸F]QTFT visualized brain lesions in mouse models of epilepsy, glioma, and aging by targeting the aberrantly expressed P2Y₁₂ in anti-inflammatory microglia. In a pilot clinical study, [¹⁸F]QTFT successfully located epileptic foci, showing enhanced radioactive signals in a patient with epilepsy. Collectively, these studies suggest that [¹⁸F]QTFT could serve as a valuable diagnostic tool for imaging various brain disorders by targeting P2Y₁₂ overexpressed in anti-inflammatory microglia.

ObjectiveTo investigate the recurrence of ischemic stroke (IS) and to analyze the association between four indices of total cholesterol (TC), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), and triglycerides (TG) and the risk of IS recurrence by analyzing the follow-up data related to IS in the community-based natural population of Songjiang District, Shanghai, so as to provide a scientific basis for improving the prognosis of stroke patients in the community and controlling IS recurrence. MethodsA prospective follow-up study was conducted among the IS patients in the community-based cohort population, collecting data about patient’s age, gender, disease history, biochemical indicators, and etc. Cox regression model and restricted cubic spline model were used to analyze the relationship between different levels of plasma lipids and the recurrence of IS in these patients. ResultsA total of 1 368 patients with IS were included. The total follow-up duration was 7 171.46 person-years, with a median follow-up time of 6.24 years. There were 420 cases of IS recurrence, resulting in a cumulative recurrence rate of 30.70%. The results of multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that the recurrence risk of IS was reduced when the baseline TC and LDL-C levels of IS patients were in the ranges of 4.65‒5.67 mmol·L^-1 and 2.52‒3.46 mmol·L^-1, respectively. The results of restricted cubic spline analysis showed a U-shaped relationship between baseline TC and LDL-C levels and the recurrence risk in IS patients. ConclusionThe cumulative recurrence rate of patients with IS in the community of Songjiang District in Shanghai is high, and the levels of TC and LDL-C at baseline survey are correlated with the recurrence of IS in these patients. It is suggested to pay more attention to the levels of LDL-C and TC in patients with IS, so as to improve the prognosis.

Objective To explore the changes in neural activity in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM)and their corre-lation with executive function,and to analyze the neural mechanisms underlying the decline in executive function in T2DM patients.Methods Thirty-one T2DM patients(T2DM group)and thirty-two healthy controls(HC)(HC group)matched for body mass index(BMI)underwent resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging(rs-fMRI)scans and N-back task tests were included.Differ-ences in the amplitude of low-frequency fluctuation(ALFF),regional homogeneity(ReHo),and seed-based functional connectivity(FC)between the two groups were compared,and partial correlation analyses were performed between the difference results and N-back task performance.Results The T2DM group showed prolonged reaction time(RT)in the 1-back and 2-back tasks.T2DM patients exhibited increased ALFF in the bilateral caudate nucleus,left medial superior frontal gyrus,and right postcentral gyrus,as well as elevated ReHo in the right putamen.FC analysis revealed significant alterations in FC between the caudate nucleus,putamen,and multiple brain regions in T2DM patients,with some of these FC changes significantly correlated with RT and accuracy(ACC)in the N-back task.Conclusion The decline in executive function in T2DM patients may be associated with abnormal neural activity in brain regions such as the striatum,salience network,and frontoparietal control network.FC further decreases under increased cognitive load.These findings provide evidence for the study of the neural mechanisms of executive function impairment in T2DM patients.

Purpose To investigate the clinicopathological features and molecular features of diffuse paediatric-type high-grade glioma,H3-wildtype and IDH-wildtype(pHGG H3/IDH WT)of central nervous system.Methods The clinical and pathological data of 6 cases of pHGG H3/IDH WT diagnosed by Department of Pathology,Xinhua Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiaotong University School of Medicine were retrospectively ana-lyzed.The expression of GFAP,Olig2,Syn,NeuN,IDH1,H3K27M was detected by immunohistochemistry(automatic im-munohistochemical staining device).The EGFR and MYCN gene amplification was detected by FISH.IDH,H3F3A and TERT gene mutations were detected by Sanger sequencing.The literatures were reviewed.Results The 6 patient's age ranged from 5 to 11 years,with a median age of 7.5 years.Among them,there were 2 males and 4 females,with a male to female ratio of 1∶2.The clinical symptoms were limb weakness,hemi-plegia,vomiting,convulsions,blurred vision and so on.Tumors were located in supratentorial brain for 5 cases and one in brain stem and cerebellum.Histologically,3 cases showed the mor-phological features of high-grade glioma,2 of which with giant cells.Two cases showed embryonal tumor-like features,and one had both high-grade glioma and embryonal tumor-like morpho-logical features.Microvascular proliferation and/or necrosis were present in 5 cases.Myxoid/microcystic stroma was found in 1 case.By immunohistochemistrically,the tumor cells were par-tially or focally positive for GFAP(6/6)and Olig2(6/6),fo-cally positive for Syn(3/6)and NeuN(1/6),and negative for IDH1,H3K27M,H3G34V and H3G34R.ATRX,H3K27me3,INI1 and BRG1 were diffusely positive(6/6).The positive rate of p53 was 5％-95％,and Ki67 proliferation index was 40％-90％.Molecular analysis showed that all 6 cases were IDH1/2 and H3F3A wild-type.MYCN amplification was observed in 2 cases.Two cases of EGFR amplification with polyploidy;one case had both EGFR amplification and MYCN amplification.PDGFRA amplification was observed in one case.For treatment and follow-up,the patients received postoperative radiotherapy and/or temozolomide chemotherapy;three patients died at 1 to 5 months after operation.Two patients survived and were followed up for 4 and 7 months,respectively.One patient was lost to fol-low-up.Conclusions pHGG H3/IDH WT is a highly malignant tumor with glioblastoma-like or embryonal tumor-like features.According to the molecular characteristics,it can be divided into three molecular subtypes,RTK1,RTK2 and MYCN.pHGG MYCN has the worst prognosis.Attention should be paid to the differential diagnosis of other pediatric or adult high-grade glio-mas and embryonal tumors.

Purpose To investigate the clinicopathological features,molecular features,treatment and prognosis of infant-type hemispheric glioma(IHG)with ALK gene fusion of central nervous system.Methods Clinical data of 2 cases of IHG were collected,and the expression of GFAP,Olig2,Syn,NeuN,H3K27M,H3K27me3,H3G34V,H3G34R,ALK,and BRAF were detected using immunohistochemistry.FISH and NGS method was used to detect ALK fusion genes,and relevant liter-atures were reviewed.Results Case 1,a male,15 months old,showed a huge mass in the left frontal and temporal lobe on cranial MRI.Case 2(external hospital consultation),a male,18 months old,was found to have a space occupying lesion in the frontaltemporal lobe.Microscopic examination:in case 1,tumor cells showed diffuse patchy pattern,with small nodular shapes in some areas which separated by fibrous blood vessels.The cell density was high,and the nucleus was round or oval.The mitotic was easy to see,accompanied by bleeding and nec-rosis.In case 2,tumor cells were diffusely distributed,some of them formed pseudorosette around blood vessels and others ar-ranged in bundles.The cells were mild to moderate dysplasia with round or oval nuclei,light staining,small nucleoli,rare mitotic figures,and no microvascular proliferation or necrosis.Immunophenotypes:in case 1 tumor cells were focal positive for GFAP and NeuN,diffuse positive for H3K27me3,ALK(cyto-plasm and cell membrane),and ATRX,p53 positive(30％),negative for Olig2,Syn,H3K27M,H3G34V,H3G34R,and BRAF,Ki67 proliferation index of 20％.In case 2:tumor cells were diffusedly expressed GFAP,ATRX,H3K27me3,ALK(cytoplasm and cell membrane),and Olig2,Syn was weakly positive,NeuN and p53 were negative,and Ki67 proliferation index was 5％.FISH and NGS tests showed ALK gene fusion in both cases,with EML4::ALK fusion in case 1 and LRRFIP1::ALK fusion in case 2.Follow up for 7 months showed that the residual lesion in case 1 had shrunk and was generally in good condition;case 2 lost follow-up.Conclusion The histology of IHG often presents as high-grade gliomas or accompanied by an-aplastic features.The heterogeneity of ALK variants can also manifest as low-grade gliomas,which need to be differentiated from other high-grade gliomas,desmoplastic infantile gangliogli-oma/astrocytoma,ependymoma,etc.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the role of clinical pharmacists in the treatment of a patient with Epstein-Barr （EB） virus encephalitis. METHODS Clinical pharmacist participated in drug diagnosis and therapy for a patient with EB virus encephalitis. According to the physiological characteristics of the disease and the pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic characteristics of antibiotics， clinical pharmacists suggested that the dose should be adjusted as ceftriaxone 2 g， q12 h+meropenem 2 g， q8 h. Based on the uncontrolled infection of the patient， pharmacists suggested that ceftriaxone should be stopped and vancomycin 1 million U and q12 h should be used as alternative therapy. According to the results of etiology， pharmacists suggested that acyclovir should be discontinued and replaced with ganciclovir 5 mg/kg， q12 h. The electrolyte disturbance of the patient may be adverse drug reactions caused by Mannitol injection， it was recommended to stop the drug. RESULTS The clinician followed the advice of the clinical pharmacists. After treatment， the patient improved and was discharged. CONCLUSIONS Clinical pharmacists can carry out pharmaceutical care for patients with EB virus encephalitis， assist physicians in optimizing the treatment plan of patients， and ensure the effectiveness and safety of drug treatment.

The application and development of laparoscopic surgery for gastric cancer has experienced a history of more than two decades, from exploratory development to clinical validation, and then to large-scale clinical studies. Gra-dually, laparoscopic gastric cancer surgery has been supported by high-level evidence. Laparoscopic surgery is progressively recommended as one of the alternative treatment for gastric cancer and is widely performed in gastric cancer surgery worldwide, especially in East Asia, such as Japan, Korea and China. Single-port and reduced-port laparoscopic surgery was first performed for cholecystectomy and appendectomy, is becoming more popular among gastrointestinal surgeons due to its minimally invasive outcomes and better cosmetic effects. However, the clinical application of single-port and reduced-port laparoscopic surgery for gastric cancer is still in the exploratory stage. The results of initially observational studies have shown that single-port and reduced-port laparoscopic surgery have potential advantages in terms of cosmetic results and enhanced recovery after surgery compared with the conventional five-port laparoscopic surgery for gastric cancer. But its surgical safety and feasibility are still not confirmed by high-level evidence of evidence-based medicine.

Objective: To evaluate the effects of office blood pressure(OBP)combined with ambulatory blood pressure monitoring(ABPM)on the diagnosis of hypertension. Methods: The residents aged 35-79 years without hypertension history,whose casual OBP were 120~159 mm Hg/80~99 mm Hg,were enrolled from 4 communities of Hangzhou and Zhuji from 2015 to 2018. They were performed OBP measurements on other two days in 4 weeks and ABPM in a week. There were 2 criteria of OBP as elevated OBP on the first day or in 3 different days,and 4 criteria of ABPM as elevated mean BP in 24 hours, daytime, nighttime and either of the above time. Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was employed to evaluate the effects of different OBP criteria combined with ABPM criteria on the diagnosis of masked hypertension(MH)and white-coat hypertension(WCH). Results: Taking 3-day-OBP as a golden standard,the 1-day-OBP with 4 ABPM criteria had the areas under the ROC curve(AUC)of 0.79-0.81,sensitivity of 57.58%-62.77% and specificity of 100.00% in MH;had the AUC of 0.95-0.98,sensitivity of 100.00% and specificity of 88.96%-96.80% in WCH. The Kappa values were all less than 0.6,known as low consistency. Taking either time of ABPM as a golden standard,24 hours,daytime and nighttime ABPM criteria with OBP had the AUC of 0.90-0.92,sensitivity of 79.17%-83.90% and specificity of 100.00% in MH(all Kappa>0.6),when with 1-day-OBP,the Kappa values were all more than 0.8,known as high consistency;had the AUC of 0.95-1.00,sensitivity of 100.00% and specificity of 89.54%-99.37% in WCH,the Kappa values of daytime ABPM were all more than 0.6,known as high consistency. Conclusions If limited by options, 1-day-OBP could be used instead of 3-day-OBP for detection of WCH or exclusion of MH yet with less accuracy; 24 hours or daytime ABPM instead of either time of ABPM was reliable.

To evaluate the long term cardiopulmonary function after Fontan operation. Methods 10 patients who received Fontan operation were followed for(26 ±4) years in our hospital. 7 males and 3 females,(30. 7 ± 13. 2) years old(20 -60 years). All patients were diagnosed by echocardiography, CTA, 24 h ECG, cardiac catheterization, pulmonary angiography, radionuclide pulmonary blood perfusion and cardiopulmonary exercise test. Results Echocardiography shows: LVEF(0. 49 ± 0. 04), more than moderate atrioventricular valve regurgitation in 7 cases. CTA shows: there was no anastomotic stenosis, arteriovenous fistula in 4 cases. 24 h ECG shows: sinus rhythm in 7 cases, frequent paroxysmal atrial tachycardia in 1 case, atrial flutter in one and atrial fibrillation in one. Cardiac catheterization and pulmonary angiography show: the average pulmonary artery pressure(17. 8 ±2. 0)mmHg, average pulmonary resistance(4. 17 ±0. 56) woods. Radionuclide pulmonary blood perfusion shows: pulmonary blood of upper lung was reduced significantly with unbalanced distribution. Cardiopulmonary exercise test shows: both of lung ventilation function and heart reserve function decreased moderately or severely. Protein losing enteropathy was found in 1 case. Conclusion The decrease of cardiopulmonary function is found after Fontan operation during the long-term follow up for 20 years, especially for cardiac function. More attention should be paid to the early postoperative atrioventricular valve regurgitation. Unbalanced distribution of pulmonary blood is Found in long term. The incidence of arrhythmia after extra conduit Fontan operation is lower than other methods.
