This article reports a 14-year-old boy who presented with "a nearly 7-year history of a right upper arm mass and a more than 1-year history of cervical lymphadenopathy". His main clinical manifestations included a subcutaneous mass in the right upper arm, bilateral eyelid and submandibular masses, and multiple enlarged cervical lymph nodes, accompanied by persistent peripheral blood eosinophilia. Biopsies of the right upper arm lesion and a left submandibular lymph node showed lymphoid hyperplasia with prominent eosinophilic infiltration, vascular and fibrous tissue proliferation, and eosinophilic microabscess formation in the left submandibular lymph node, confirming the diagnosis of Kimura′s disease. The lesions regressed markedly after glucocorticoid therapy but recurred after treatment discontinuation. Because the patient and his family were concerned about long-term glucocorticoid therapy, mepolizumab was subsequently administered. Peripheral eosinophil counts normalized, whereas the local tissue lesions showed limited improvement. A multidisciplinary team comprehensively evaluated the diagnosis, the need for repeat biopsy of atypical lymph nodes on imaging, the possible association between the cardiac valve abnormalities and the underlying disease, and subsequent treatment options. The patient is currently receiving methotrexate with folic acid supplementation and remains under regular follow-up. This case indicates that the diagnosis of Kimura′s disease relies on clinical manifestations and histopathological findings. Once diagnosed, comprehensive evaluation, individualized treatment, and long-term management should be implemented.

Based on the ideas of management systemization, system standardization, process specialisation, post accountability, duty formalization, form informatization, information digitization and digital intelligence, the smart, mobile and paperless bedside billing service was developed which incorporated both functional and financial prospects. The innovation was realized by Internet+ bedside billing and an integrated information platform, so that the inter-hospital billing system could be connected to the medical insurance system, electrical receive system and commercial insurance system. This saved manpower and equipment deployment, and improved service quality. The bedside intelligent mobile billing system of a hospital was launched in January 2021, and the average discharge billing time of inpatients in 2020 and 2021 was 44.36 min and 30.59 min, respectively, and the online billing fee time was significantly shorter than offline billing in 2021, and the differences were all significant( P<0.01).

Aim To study the pharmacodynamics of antianxietic compound prescription capsule ( ACPC ) on acute stress in rats and the influence upon the ex-pression of ERK/CREB signal pathway and brain-de-rived neurotrophic factor ( BDNF) in the cerebral cor-tex and hippocampus of rats. Methods The elevated plus maze ( EPM ) test was applied to observe the effects of ACPC on acute stress rats administered 7 d low-, medium- and high-dose ( 0. 75 , 1. 5 , 3 g · kg-1 ) . The expression of ERK/CREB signal pathway and BDNF in the cerebral cortex and hippocampus of rats were studied by using Western blot method. Re-sults In EPM, high-dose of ACPC increased signifi-cantly the rat open arm time ( OT%) ( P<0 . 05 ) and the percentage of open arm entries ( OE%) ( P <0. 05). In Western blot, the medium-dose of ACPC reduced significantly p-ERK1/2 expression in hippo-campus ( P <0. 05 ) , and high-dose group decreased significantly the expression of p-ERK1/2 and p-CREB in the cortex and hippocampus of rats ( P <0. 05 ) . High-dose group increased significantly the expression of BDNF in the cortex and hippocampus of rats ( P<0. 05 , P<0. 01 ) . Conclusion ACPC has anti-anxie-ty effect in the model of EPM, and its mechanism may be related to the ERK/CREB signal pathway and in-creased BDNF expression.
