Objective To investigate the risk factors for the failure of ibuprofen treatment in preterm infants with hemodynamically significant patent ductus arteriosus(hsPDA).Methods A retrospective collection of clinical data was conducted on preterm infants with a gestational age of＜34 weeks who were diagnosed with hsPDA and treated at the Department of Neonatology,Maternal and Child Health Hospital of Hubei Province,Tongji Medical College,Huazhong University of Science and Technology,from January 2018 to June 2023.The subjects were divided into two groups based on the treatment approach:the ibuprofen group(95 cases)and the ibuprofen plus surgery group(44 cases).The risk factors for the failure of ibuprofen treatment in preterm infants with hsPDA were identified by binary logistic regression analysis.Results The binary logistic regression analysis revealed that an increased diameter of the ductus arteriosus,a resistance index(RI)value of the middle cerebral artery ≥0.80,and prolonged total invasive mechanical ventilation time were risk factors for the failure of ibuprofen treatment in preterm infants with hsPDA(P＜0.05).Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis showed that a ductus arteriosus diameter＞2.85 mm,a middle cerebral artery RI value ≥0.80,and a total invasive mechanical ventilation time＞16 days had significant predictive value for the failure of ibuprofen treatment in preterm infants with hsPDA(P＜0.05).The combined predictive value of these three factors was the highest,with an area under the curve of 0.843,a sensitivity of 86.5％,and a specificity of 75.0％(P＜0.05).Conclusions A ductus arteriosus diameter＞2.85 mm,a middle cerebral artery RI value ≥0.80,and a total invasive mechanical ventilation time＞16 days are risk factors for the failure of ibuprofen treatment in preterm infants with hsPDA,and they are of significant predictive value for the necessity of surgical treatment following the failure of ibuprofen treatment.[Chinese Journal of Contemporary Pediatrics,2024,26(4):343-349]

A 2-year-and-10-month-old boy presented with multiple masses in the neck and chest for over 3 months.The child had a history of unstable walking,with hard lumps visible at the injury sites after falls,which would resolve on their own.Following a recent injury,a mass was discovered in the posterior neck,protruding above the skin surface and accompanied by limited joint movement.Gradually,new masses were found on the left side of the neck,back near the scapular lower angle,in the scapular fossa,and along the left axillary midline.Magnetic resonance imaging examination showed diffuse low signal on T1-weighted images and high signal on T2-weighted images in the bilateral posterior neck and back muscles two months ago.A CT scan revealed muscle swelling,with areas of patchy low density and multiple nodular high-density ossifications within some muscles.Genetic testing results indicated a mutation in the ACVR1 gene,leading to the final diagnosis of progressive ossifying myositis in this patient.This article summarizes the etiology,diagnosis,and treatment of one case of progressive ossifying myositis,providing a reference for clinicians.

This study used kidney metabolomics to investigate the underlying mechanisms of Guilingji (GLJ) on mild cognitive impairment (MCI) rats. The rats were randomly divided into 6 groups (n = 8), i.e., control group, model group, positive drug (Ginkgo biloba tablet, donepezil) group, GLJ group (low and high dose group). The MCI rat model was replicated using subcutaneous injection of D-galactose into the back of the neck along with a semi-high-fat diet for a total of 8 weeks, and drug was administered from the 5th week for 4 weeks. The kidney function and renal pathological changes of each group of rats were tested. And LC-MS based kidney metabolomics coupled with multivariate data analysis were conducted to explore the potential biomarkers, and corresponding metabolic pathways were then determined. After administration of GLJ, the level of urea nitrogen was decreased compared with those of the model group, and the abnormalities of morphology in kidney tissues were improved. The positive drugs (ginkgo biloba tablet and donepezil) had no significant modulating effect on renal function indexes. Ginkgo biloba tablet can lessen the pathological injury of kidney tissue, and donepezil had no improvement on renal histopathology. A total of 23 MCI related differential metabolites were identified in kidney, and 17 metabolites were signifcantly restored by GLJ compared with those of the model group. Additionally, we found that the cysteine and methionine metabolism, nicotinate and nicotinamide metabolism, taurine and hypotaurine metabolism, glycerophospholipid metabolism were significantly involved in the regulatory effect of GLJ. The results illuminate the "cong shen zhi nao" mechanism of GLJ, and also provide a research basis for the clinical use of GLJ for the treatment of MCI. The animal experiment of this study was approved by the Ethics Committee of Shanxi University (approval number: 2020DW121).

Objective To observe the role of dried tangerine peel in Yigong Powder improves iron metabolism and promotes red blood cell generation in anemia of chronic disease (ACD).Methods With a two-by-two factorial design,the Yigong Powder was divided into dried tangerine peel and Chenpi absent Decoction. According to the random number table method,32 zymosan-induced generalized inflammation (ZIGI) mice were randomly divided into the model group,the dried tangerine peel group,the Chenpi absent Decoction group,and the Yigong Powder group. The dried tangerine peel group,Chenpi absent Decoction group and the Yigong Powder group were given dried tangerine peel(3.083 g/kg),Chenpi absent Decoction(12.33g/kg),and Yigong Powder(15.413g/kg)by gavage to the corresponding group of mice. The model group was given an equal amount of physiological saline by gavage,and treated continuously for 7 days. After the completion of administration,the body weight of each group of mice was recorded. The hemoglobin content of each group of mice was detected using a fully automatic cell counter,the serum iron content was detected using colorimetry,the serum ferritin content was detected using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA),and the spleen index was calculated. The liver tissue inflammatory factors interleukin-1β (IL-1β),interleukin-6 (IL-6),tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α),interferon-γ (IFN-γ),interleukin-4 (IL-4),and interleukin-10 (IL-10) levels were detected using Luminex method. The mRNA expressions of liver tissue hepcidin gene (HAMP) and membrane iron transporter ( Fpn) were detected using real-time fluorescence PCR method. Results Dried tangerine peel and Chenpi absent Decoction both showed interactive effects in regulating hemoglobin,serum iron,serum ferritin content,improving spleen index,and regulating the mRNA expressions of HAMP,Fpn,as well as IL-1β and IFN-γ (P<0.05). Compared with the model group,dried tangerine peel significantly increased hemoglobin,serum iron content,and Fpn mRNA expression in ZIGI model mice,while decreasing ferritin content,spleen index,HAMP mRNA expression,and the levels of IL-1β,IL-6,TNF-α,and IFN-γ (P<0.05). Chenpi absent Decoction significantly increased serum iron content and Fpn mRNA expression in ZIGI model mice,while reducing spleen index,ferritin content,HAMP mRNA expression,and the levels of IL-1β and IFN-γ、IL-4 (P<0.05). Conclusion The effects of dried tangerine peel on inflammatory factors (IL-6 and TNF-α) and Fpn may play a key role in the improvement effects of Yigong Powder on ACD and iron metabolism.

Objectives:To investigate the clinical and genetic features of young Chinese patients with myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN) .Methods:In this cross-sectional study, anonymous questionnaires were distributed to patients with MPN patients nationwide. The respondents were divided into 3 groups based on their age at diagnosis: young (≤40 years) , middle-aged (41-60 years) , and elderly (>60 years) . We compared the clinical and genetic characteristics of three groups of MPN patients.Results:1727 assessable questionnaires were collected. There were 453 (26.2%) young respondents with MPNs, including 274 with essential thrombocythemia (ET) , 80 with polycythemia vera (PV) , and 99 with myelofibrosis. Among the young group, 178 (39.3%) were male, and the median age was 31 (18-40) years. In comparison to middle-aged and elderly respondents, young respondents with MPN were more likely to present with a higher proportion of unmarried status (all P<0.001) , a higher education level (all P<0.001) , less comorbidity (ies) , fewer medications (all P<0.001) , and low-risk stratification (all P<0.001) . Younger respondents experienced headache (ET, P<0.001; PV, P=0.007; MF, P=0.001) at diagnosis, had splenomegaly at diagnosis (PV, P<0.001) , and survey (ET, P=0.052; PV, P=0.063) . Younger respondents had fewer thrombotic events at diagnosis (ET, P<0.001; PV, P=0.011) and during the survey (ET, P<0.001; PV, P=0.003) . JAK2 mutations were found in fewer young people (ET, P<0.001; PV, P<0.001; MF, P=0.013) ; however, CALR mutations were found in more young people (ET, P<0.001; MF, P=0.015) . Furthermore, mutations in non-driver genes (ET, P=0.042; PV, P=0.043; MF, P=0.004) and high-molecular risk mutations (ET, P=0.024; PV, P=0.023; MF, P=0.001) were found in fewer young respondents. Conclusion:Compared with middle-aged and elderly patients, young patients with MPN had unique clinical and genetic characteristics.

ObjectiveTo explore the clinical characteristics and obstetric outcomes of pregnant women who underwent surgery for adnexal torsion at different gestational weeks. MethodsA retrospective study was done on 39 women who underwent surgery for adnexal torsion during pregnancy in the First Affiliated Hospital， Sun Yat-sen University between March 2013 and March 2023， with 18 cases in 1^st trimester （<14 weeks）， 11 in 2^nd trimester （14-27⁺⁶ weeks） and 10 in 3^rd trimester （≥28 weeks）. The clinical characteristics， treatment and obstetric outcomes were compared among the three groups. ResultsThe 1^st trimester group had higher proportion of assisted reproductive technology （ART） use than the 2^nd and 3^rd trimester groups （P=0.026）. There was no significant difference in the clinical manifestations， including abdominal pain， nausea， vomiting and fever among the three groups， while elevated white blood cells （WBC） counts was more commonly seen in the 2^nd and 3^rd trimester groups. Adnexal masses <5 cm in diameter occurred in 0， 18.2%， and 10.0% of cases in 1^st， 2^nd and 3^rd trimester groups respectively （P=0.014）. No statistical significance was found in the location of twisted adnexa， number of circles or pathological nature. The 1^st trimester group had a higher sensitivity of ultrasound in the diagnosis of adnexal torsion compared with the 2^nd and 3^rd trimester groups （77.8%， 36.4%， 20.0%； P=0.008）. More laparoscopic surgery were performed in the 1^st trimester group than the other two groups （55.6% ， 27.3%， 0.0%； P=0.008）. There was no significant difference in gestational week of delivery， delivery mode， newborn gender， neonatal birth weight and follow-up of newborns among the three groups. The 3^rd trimester group showed a higher risk of preterm delivery （P=0.050）. ConclusionsDuring the 1^st trimester of pregnancy， adnexal torsion is more common in patients using ART and ultrasound plays a crucial role in the diagnosis. During the 2^nd and 3^rd trimester， adnexal torsion should be suspected in patients with abdominal pain and elevated WBC but no aspetic inflammation. Laparoscopic surgery is safe for adnexal torsion during pregnancy and can achieve a favorable maternal and neonatal outcome.

In this study, the mechanism of Xiaoyan Lidan formula (XYLDF) against 3,5-diethoxycarbonyl-1,4-dihydro-2,4,6-collidine (DDC)-induced chronic intrahepatic cholestasis (CIHC) in mice was investigated based on metabolomics, molecular docking and pharmacological methods. In the pharmacodynamics study, a dosage of 5 g·kg^-1 (clinical equivalent) XYLDF was administered in DDC-induced mice, then the effect of XYLDF against CIHC was evaluated by measuring the levels of alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alkaline phosphatase (AKP) as well as total bilirubin (TBIL) in serum and observing liver histopathological changes. All experiments were approved by the Ethical Committee Experimental Animal Center of Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine (ZYD-2021-001). The serum metabolites of mice in each group were detected and identified based on ultra-performance liquid chromatography quadrupole time-of-flight tandem mass spectrometry, and the relevant biological pathways and molecular key targets were further enriched. Molecular docking technology was used to further evaluate the binding activity of the main active ingredients of XYLDF with potential targets. Subsequently, the in vitro experiment was conducted for the validation of the vital target. The results showed that compared with the model group, XYLDF significantly decreased the levels of ALT, AST, AKP and TBIL in the serum of CIHC mice, as well as alleviated inflammatory infiltration and hepatocyte necrosis in liver tissue. According to the metabonomic study, a total of 35 differential metabolites was identified as biomarkers associated with cholestasis, 12 of which were significantly recovered by XYLDF treatment. These biomarkers were involved in the pathways of primary bile acid biosynthesis and linoleic metabolism, which are closely related to the mechanism of XYLDF against CIHC. Protein-protein interaction network indicated that cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4) and cytochrome P450 1A1 (CYP1A1) are significant potential targets with good binding properties with six major active ingredients of XYLDF. Furthermore, it was found that 4-methoxy-5-hydroxycanthin-6-one, dehydroandrographolide and isodocarpin, three of the main active components in XYLDF, markedly induced the expression of CYP3A4 mRNA in vitro. This study revealed that XYLDF mainly mediates the biosynthesis of bile acids in CIHC mice to improve liver tissue lesions and bile efflux disorders, among which, CYP3A4 is the key target in the protection of XYLDF against CIHC. This research provides a reference for further elucidation of the pharmacological mechanism of XYLDF.
