Objective:
To explore the early effects of birth weight at different gestational ages on blood pressure trajectory among primary school students, so as to provide evidence for incorporating gestational age birth weight into individualized early warning and intervention strategies for childhood hypertension.
Methods:
From May to November 2023, a purposeful sampling method was used to recruit 1 676 students in grade 1-3 from three primary schools in a certain urban district of Chongqing. Follow up assessments were conducted in May 2024(T1), November 2024(T2), and May 2025(T3). General demographic and birth related information were collected via self administered questionnaires, while height, weight and blood pressure were obtained through physical examinations. Linear mixed effects model was used to analyze the associations between birth weight at different gestational ages and blood pressure trajectories.
Results:
During the T1-T3 period, the systolic blood pressure of boys were 98.5 (93.0, 104.5 ),98.5 (93.5, 105.0), and 97.5 (92.5, 103.5)mmHg, respectively, while the diastolic blood pressure were 60.5 (56.5, 65.0), 61.5 ( 57.0 , 65.5), and 60.0 (56.0, 64.0)mmHg, respectively. For girls, the systolic blood pressure were 95.5 (90.0, 102.0),95.5 (90.5, 101.5), and 96.0 (90.5, 101.5)mmHg, respectively, and the diastolic blood pressure were 60.5 (56.0, 64.5 ),61.5 (57.5, 65.5), and 59.5 (56.0, 63.0)mmHg, respectively. Through Friedman test within both boys and girls, diostolic blood pressure were statistically significant across three measurements( χ 2=48.85,81.54,both P <0.01). The proportion of normal blood pressure increased , and the proportion of prehypertension and hypertension decreased with time( χ 2=39.72,25.62,both P < 0.01 ). Linear mixed effects model analysis revealed that after adjusting for age, sex, household income monthly, parental education, family history of hypertension and maternal pregnancy complications, large for gestational age had significantly higher trajectories of systolic ( β = 1.50) and diastolic( β =0.94) blood pressure compared to appropriate for gestational age(both P <0.01).
Conclusion
Large for gestational age is associated with elevated blood pressure trajectories during school age, and it may be considered as an early indicator for individualized screening and intervention for childhood hypertension.

Primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) is a chronic progressive autoimmune liver disease that is often comorbid with other connective tissue diseases (CTDs), and such comorbidity can significantly alter the natural course or clinical phenotype of PBC or CTDs, limiting available therapeutic drugs and complicating clinical decision-making. Due to the involvement of the interdisciplinary subjects of hepatology, rheumatology, and clinical immunology and a paucity of large-scale cohort data and in-depth basic research, there is a limited understanding of such comorbidity in clinical practice, which increases the complexity of clinical diagnosis and treatment. This article summarizes the comorbidity of PBC with common CTDs such as Sjögren’s syndrome, systemic sclerosis, systemic lupus erythematosus, and idiopathic inflammatory myopathies, and analyzes related immune mechanisms, clinical manifestations, diagnostic challenges, treatment strategies, and prognosis. It is expected to establish PBC-CTD comorbidity cohorts through future multidisciplinary collaborations, focus on genetic background, immune mechanisms, and multi-omics approaches, elucidate pathogenesis and novel therapeutic targets, and improve the prognosis of patients by optimizing treatment strategies through precision medicine and artificial intelligence.

Adverse Drug Reactions Journal 2025;27(1):17-24
Objective:To explore the risk factors of severe medication errors (ME) of tranexamic acid injection (TXAI), and put forward prevention suggestions.Methods:TXAI-related ME reports in the National Monitoring Network for Clinical Safe Medication (Monitoring Network) and medical literature databases at home and abroad were searched, and case reports of TXAI-related ME were collected; China Judgements Online and PKULAW database were searched, and TXAI-related judicial cases judged to be responsible by the hospital were collected. The retrieval time of all data was up to May 1, 2024. The severity grade, occurrence link and place, and the trigger person of TXAI-related ME reported in the Monitoring Network were retrospectively analyzed. The year of report, country of occurrence, clinical application, error content, and occurrence place of the collected severe ME cases, and the clinical characteristics of patient injury, patient outcome and the ME grading were retrospectively analyzed.Results:From September 22, 2012 to May 1, 2024, the Monitoring Network received a total of 138 TXAI-related ME reports, and there was an increasing trend in the number of reports year by year. Among 138 cases of ME, 79 (57.3%) occurred in the drug dispensing and distribution link; 58 (42.0%) occurred in the prescription/doctor's order prescribing and delivery link and mainly involved easily mixed drugs and drug overdose, of which 1 (1.7%) was a severe ME (grade E); 1 (0.7%) occurred in the drug administration link, and iodohexol was mistakenly injected as TXAI into the patient's joint cavity. A total of 29 severe ME reports related to TXAI were collected. Of them, 24 (82.8%) were due to incorrect administration routes (22 were confused with anesthetics and 2 were confused with injection catheters, all resulting in incorrect intrathecal injections) and 5 (17.2%) were due to prescription errors (3 were overdosed, 1 was used for high-risk thrombosis patient, and 1 was treated with combination use of hemocoagulase for high-risk thrombosis patient); 23 (79.3%) occurred in the operating rooms, and 6 (20.7%) occurred in the wards. The 24 patients involved in incorrect intrathecal injections of TXAI mainly developed severe pain, neurotoxicity (status epilepticus) and/or cardiotoxicity (arrhythmia and ventricular fibrillation), of which 11 (45.8%) died and 2 (8.3%) had sequelae of limb muscle weakness. Among the 5 patients with prescription errors, 4 developed severe thrombotic disease, resulting in 2 deaths and 2 cerebrovascular-related sequelae, and the other one developed palpitation, shortness of breath, nausea and vomiting. Among the 29 severe ME cases, 2 (6.9%) were grade E, 3 (10.3%) were grade F, 4 (13.8%) were grade G, 7 (24.2%) were grade H, and 13 (44.8%) were grade I.Conclusions:TXAI-related ME mainly involved easily mixed drugs and prescription errors. The severe ME main occurred in the operating room and mainly due to incorrect intrathecal injection, leading to fatal neurological and cardiac toxicity in patients.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical efficacy of pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) with internal limiting membrane peeling and gas tamponade in the management of optic disc pit maculopathy (ODP-M).Methods:A retrospective case analysis. From 2002 to 2021, 16 patients (16 eyes) diagnosed with ODP-M at Department of Ophthalmology of Peking University Third Hospital and Eye Center of Peking University People's Hospital were included in the study. All affected eyes underwent best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), intraocular pressure, color fundus photography and optical coherence tomography (OCT) examinations. BCVA assessment was conducted using a standard logarithmic visual acuity chart, and during statistics, it was converted to the logarithmic minimum angle of resolution (logMAR) visual acuity. According to the treatment methods, the affected eyes were divided into the laser treatment group and the surgical treatment group, with 2 and 14 eyes respectively. The affected eyes in the laser treatment group were only given simple laser photocoagulation treatment. All the affected eyes in the surgical treatment group underwent PPV combined with internal limiting membrane peeling and vitreous cavity filling with 16% SF 6. Among them, autologous platelet concentrate (APC) was simultaneously used in 5 eyes. The follow-up period after the operation was 13.5 (3-138) months. The differences in the absorption of subretinal fluid (SRF) and the improvement of BCVA in the macular area between the two groups of affected eyes were compared and observed. The absorption of SRF in the macular area measured by OCT was used as the criterion for judging the effectiveness of treatment. The Mann-Whitney U test was used for comparison between the two groups. Results:In the surgical treatment group, SRF in the macular area was completely absorbed in 14 eyes, and the complete absorption time was 7.0 (2-23) months. In the laser treatment group, SRF was not absorbed in both eyes. The logMAR BCVA of the surgical treatment group before and after the operation was 0.7 (0.3-2.0) and 0.4 (0.1-1.3), and the difference was statistically significant ( Z=2.809, P=0.005). The logMAR BCVA before and after the operation of the eyes with combined APC filling and those without combined APC filling were 0.6 (0.3-1.0) and 0.5 (0.1-0.7), as well as 0.7 (0.3-2.0) and 0.4 (0.2-1.3), respectively. There was no statistically significant difference in logMAR BCVA between the two after surgery ( Z=0.609, P=0.543). Conclusions:PPV combined with internal limiting membrane peeling and gas tamponade can effectively promote the absorption of SRF in the macular area of eyes with ODP-M, achieve anatomical macular restoration, and improve BCVA.

Objective:To construct a recommended list of high-alert medication (HAM) based on big data from medication error (ME) reports in China, providing reference for preventing and reducing HAM-related risks.Methods:The drugs involved in the serious ME reports of the National Monitoring Network for Clinical Safe Medication (Monitoring Network) were collected (as of December 31, 2023), and the candidate drugs were preliminarily determined referring to the HAM list of China 2023 (Chinese list) and the latest three lists of American Institute for Safe Medication Practices (ISMP). Candidate drugs that were included in both the Chinese list and ISMP lists, as well as those existed in the Chinese list but had never been included in the ISMP lists were included in the current list, and their risk levels followed the original risks in the Chinese list. Candidate drugs that existed in the Chinese list but had been excluded from the ISMP lists, and those existed in the ISMP lists but had not been included in the Chinese list were listed as suspected drugs. For the other candidate drugs, those did not meet the definition of HAM were excluded firstly, and those related to ME that had caused serious harm were listed as suspected drugs, according to the judicial cases on ME of China Judgements Online and PKULAW database. Two methods, including Delphi expert consultation and questionnaire survey, were used to determine whether the above suspected drugs were included in the HAM list and their risk levels.Results:A total of 138 drugs were obtained through the initial screening, 106 of which were directly included in the current list, and 32 of which were listed as drugs requiring further assessment. After 2 rounds of Delphi expert consultation by 18 experts and surveys with 136 valid questionnaires, 32 suspected drugs did not meet the inclusion criteria. Finally, a total of 106 drugs were included in the current list, including 51 A-class drugs in 9 categories, 33 B-class drugs in 9 categories, and 22 C-class drugs in 5 categories.Conclusion:Based on the big data of the ME reports in China, a HAM list is constructed, which is accurate and concise and better fits the actual clinical drug risks in China, helping to improve the drug safety management.
9.Analysis of the reasons for medication errors in deslanoside injection use
Adverse Drug Reactions Journal 2025;27(11):654-659
Objective:To explore the causes of medication errors (ME) associated with deslanoside injection and put forward targeted preventive recommendations.Methods:ME reports related to deslanoside injection in the National Monitoring Network for Clinical Safe Medication (Monitoring Network) as of August 31, 2024 were collected, and sever ME cases of deslanoside injection were also collected though searching medical literature databases at home and abroad, China Judgements Online, and PKULAW database at the same period. The level of severity, occurrence link, error content, occurrence place, trigger personnel and patient outcomes of the MEs were retrospectively analyzed.Results:The Monitoring Network received a total of 41 ME reports of deslanoside injection from September 2012 to August 2024, and the number of reports showed an upward trend year by year. These MEs were classified as grade A in 1 case (2.4%), grade B in 18 cases (43.9%), grade C in 17 cases (41.5%), grade D in 4 cases (9.8%), and grade F in 1 case (2.4%). There were 63.4% (26/41) of MEs occurring in the prescription/doctor′s order prescribing and delivery links, mainly caused by physicians, and the common error contents included solvent errors, medication under contraindications, and having drug-drug interactions. In addition, 26.8% (11/41) of MEs occurred in the drug dispensing and distribution link, and 9.8% (4/41) occurred in the administration and monitoring links. A total of 4 severe MEs of deslanoside injection were collected from the Monitoring Network, medical literature and judicial cases, all of which occurred in the prescription/doctor′s order prescribing and delivery links. Among the 4 severe MEs, 2 ME cases of grade I occurred due to incorrect usage and dosage, resulting in patient death; 1 ME case of grade F was caused by interaction with traditional Chinese medicine, resulting in digitalis poisoning, and another case of grade F was that deslanoside injection was administered to a patient with digitalis poisoning (medication under contraindications).Conclusions:MEs of deslanoside injection often occurs in the prescription/doctor′s order prescribing and delivery links, mainly because of insufficient knowledge of doctors to the drug instructions. It is suggested to strengthen learning and training of medical staff centered around drug instructions, and improve the system interception and process management, so as to improve the medication safety.
