Objective:To collect registered clinical research plans on TCM characteristic therapies for treating cervical spondylosis; To explore their research registration status; To provide references for future clinical trial registration and implementation.Methods:Clinical research on TCM characteristic therapies for treating cervical spondylosis was retrieved from ChiCTR, ITMCTR and Clinical Trials. gov from the establishment of the databases to July 1, 2024. Excel 2019 was used to conduct descriptive statistics on registration time, registration area and institution, funding source, research type and design scheme, research participation center and sample size, cervical spondylosis type, intervention measures, outcome indicators, reporting quality, research openness and methodological application.Results:A total of 138 clinical trials for the TCM treatment of cervical spondylosis were included, of which 136 were registered by domestic researchers in 22 provincial-level administrative regions. The top three in terms of registration numbers were Shanghai, Guangdong Province, and Beijing. Additionally, 2 were registered by foreign researchers in Egypt and Malaysia. The main sources of funding were 50 local finances, followed by 26 hospital subsidies and 18 national finances. The intervention research accounted for the largest proportion of research types, with 123 items (89.13%). The research center mainly focused on single center studies (98 projects). Most randomized controlled trials (115 trials) described randomization methods, while a small number of randomized controlled trials (50 trials) indicated blinding. The intervention measures were mostly combined with TCM therapy, and the outcome indicators were mainly efficacy indicators, with fewer safety indicators.Conclusions:At present, clinical trial registrations for TCM treatment of cervical spondylosis are increasing, but issues remain, such as poor study design, uneven distribution, and incomplete information. It is recommended to refine registration details, optimize study protocols, and promote high-quality clinical research.

Objective:To summarize the genotype and clinical characteristics of chylomicron retention disease (CMRD) caused by secretion associated Ras related GTPase 1B (SAR1B) gene variations.Methods:Clinical data and genetic testing results of 2 children with CMRD treated at Children′s Hospital of Fudan University and Jiangxi Provincial Children′s Hospital from May 2022 to July 2023 were summarized. To provide an overview of the clinical and genetic characteristics of CMRD caused by SAR1B gene variations, all of the literature was searched and reviewed from China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wanfang Data Knowledge Service Platform, China VIP database, China Biology Medicine disc and PubMed database (up to January 2024) with "chylomicron retention disease" "Anderson disease" or "Anderson syndrome" as the search terms. All relevant literatures were reviewed to summarize the clinical and genetic features of CMRD caused by SAR1B gene variations.Results:One 11-year-old boy and one 4-month-old girl with CMRD. Both patients had lipid malabsorption, failure to thrive, decreased cholesterol, elevated transaminase and creatine kinase, and Vitamin E deficiency, with homozygous variations (c.224A>G) and compound heterozygous variations (c.224A>G and c.554G>T) in SAR1B gene, respectively. Case 1 was followed up for over a month, and he still occasionally experienced lower limb muscle pain. Case 2 was followed up for more than a year, and her had caught up to normal levels. Both patients had no other significant discomfort. Literature search retrieved 0 Chinese literature and 22 English literatures. In addition to the 2 cases reported in this study, a total of 51 patients were identified as CMRD caused by SAR1B gene variations. Twenty-one types of SAR1B variants 10 missense, 4 nonsense, 3 frameshift, 1 in-frame deletion, 1 splice, 1 gross deletion, and 1 gross insertion-deletion were found among the 51 CMRD cases. Among all the patients, 49 cases had lipid malabsorption (43 cases had diarrhea or fatty diarrhea, 17 cases had vomiting, and 12 cases had abdominal distension), 45 cases had lipid soluble Vitamin deficiency (43 cases had Vitamin E deficiency, 10 cases had Vitamin A deficiency, 9 case had Vitamin D deficiency, and 5 cases had Vitamin K deficiency), 35 cases had failure to thrive, 32 cases had liver involvement (32 cases had elevated transaminases, 5 cases had fatty liver, and 3 cases had hepatomegaly), 29 cases had white small intestinal mucosa under endoscopy, and 17 cases had elevated creatine kinase, 14 cases had neuropathy, 5 cases had ocular lesions, 2 cases had acanthocytosis, 1 case had decreased cardiac ejection fraction, and 1 case was symptom-free.Conclusions:Early infancy failure to thrive and lipid malabsorption are common issues for CMRD patients. The laboratory tests are characterized by hypocholesterolemia with or without fat-soluble Vitamin deficiency, elevated liver enzymes and (or) creatine kinase. Currently, missense variations are frequent among the primarily homozygous SAR1B genotypes that have been described.

This study shows a case of a patient with synovial chondromatosis of the hip misdiagnosed as rice body bursitis. The patient complained of pain and limited activity in his left hip. He was diagnosed with synovial chondromatosis of the hip by medical history, physical examination, imaging examination and postoperative pathology. Based on literature review, the characteristics and differential diagnosis of the disease in epidemiology, imaging and pathology were discussed in detail, so as to improve the understanding of the disease and avoid misdiagnosis. He was treated with hip arthroscopy and obtained satisfactory therapeutic effect. The patient was followed up for 1 year without recurrence.

Objective:To construct a nomogram model predicting the occurrence of acute kidney injury (AKI) in patients with sepsis in the intensive care unit (ICU), and to verify its validity for early prediction.Methods:Sepsis patients admitted to the ICU of the Affiliated Hospital of Jining Medical University from April 2015 to December 2021 were retrospectively included, and those who met the inclusion criteria were randomly divided into training and validation sets at a ratio of 7:3. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression models were used to identify independent risk factors for AKI in patients with sepsis, and a nomogram was constructed based on the independent risk factors. Calibration curve, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, and decision curve analysis (DCA) were used to evaluate the nomogram model.Results:741 patients with sepsis were included in the study, 335 patients developed AKI within 7 d of ICU admission, with an AKI incidence of 45.1%. Randomization was performed in the training set ( n=519) and internal validation set ( n=222). Multivariate logistic analysis revealed that acute physiology and chronic health status score Ⅱ, sequential organ failure score, serum lactate, calcitoninogen, norepinephrine dose, urea nitrogen, and neutrophil percentage were independent factors influencing the occurrence of AKI, and a nomogram model was constructed by combining these variables. In the training set, the AUC of the nomogram model ROC was 0.875 (95% CI: 0.767-0.835), the calibration curve showed consistency between the predicted and actual probabilities, and the DCA showed a good net clinical benefit. In the internal validation set, the nomogram model had a similar predictive value for AKI (AUC=0.871, 95% CI: 0.734-0.854). Conclusions:A nomogram model constructed based on the critical care score at admission combined with inflammatory markers can be used for the early prediction of AKI in sepsis patients in the ICU. The model is helpful for clinicians early identify AKI in sepsis patients.

Objective:To evaluate the differences in the cumulative doses for cervical cancer between two different methods, and analyze the correlation between the severity of radiation proctitis and the cumulative dose of the rectum.Methods.:Clinical data of 278 patients with cervical cancer treated with radiotherapy were retrospectively analyzed. The total dose of radiotherapy was calculated by simple dose volume histogram parameter accumulation method (S-DVH group) and dose accumulation by deformation image registration (DIR group) in 49 patients with radiation proctitis. The rectal cumulative dose of the 278 patients with S-DVH was counted(D 2.0cm 3/D 1.0cm 3/D 0.1cm 3). The correlation analysis was performed by Spearman’s correlation analysis. Results:The average cumulative dose(D 90%) difference of high-risk clinical target volume (HRCTV) between the S-DVH and DIR groups was 2 Gy (EQD 2Gy)[(88.66±5.75) vs. (86.66±5.54) Gy, P<0.05], and the average cumulative dose difference(D 2.0cm 3 and D 1.0cm 3) of bladder was 2.13 Gy[(82.46±6.91) vs.(80.33±6.86) Gy, P<0.05] and 2.35 Gy[(88.46±4.37) vs.(86.11±3.93) Gy, P<0.05], and the average cumulative dose difference(D 2.0cm 3 and D 1.0cm 3) of rectum was 1.99 Gy[(72.49±5.17) vs.(70.50±5.03) Gy, P<0.05] and 2.71 Gy[(78.87±4.50) vs.(76.16±4.14) Gy, P<0.05]. The rectal cumulative dose(D 2.0cm 3/D 1.0cm 3/D 0.1cm 3) was positively associated with the grade of radiation proctitis. Conclusions:The cumulative doses differ between two groups, and are equally in an acceptable range. S-DVH method is a relatively simple method to evaluate the cumulative exposure dose. The cumulative doses of the rectum(D 2.0cm 3/D 1.0cm 3/D 0.1cm 3) can be used to predict the incidence of radiation proctitis.
