Objective To provide clinical practitioners with references for rational and safe usage of cyclophosphamide(CTX)by conducting an in-depth analysis of its adverse drug events(ADE)reported in clinical settings.Methods Based on the Food and Drug Administration(FDA)adverse event reporting system,the online pharmacovigilance tool OpenVigil collected ADE data of CTX from January 1,2013 to March 11,2023.The ADE data mining analysis was performed using the reporting odds ratio(ROR)and Bayesian confidence propagation neural network(BCPNN)methods.Results A total of 8 223 ADE reports met the inclusion criteria,and 422 ADE signals were obtained,involving 21 system organ classification(SOC),of which women(44.12％)accounted for a higher proportion than men(31.02％),the age distribution was mainly in the population 46-65 years old.The involved SOC mainly included infections and invasive diseases,hematologic and lymphatic system diseases,systemic diseases and various reactions at the site of administration,etc.;the ADE signals with a higher number of reports were myelosuppression,disease progression,pyrexia,febrile neutropenia,etc.A total of 18 suspected adverse drug reaction(ADR)not documented in the CTX drug insert were unearthed.Conclusion Clinical practitioners should be alert to ADE signals outside the drug insert,such as neonatal diseases and maternal exposure before pregnancy,methemoglobinemia,etc.,when using cyclophosphamide to improve the safety and effectiveness of clinical treatment.

Aim To investigate the therapeutic effect of the MW-9 on ulcerative colitis(UC)and reveal the underlying mechanism, so as to provide a scientific guidance for the MW-9 treatment of UC. Methods The model of lipopolysaccharide(LPS)-stimulated RAW264.7 macrophage cells was established. The effect of MW-9 on RAW264.7 cells viability was detected by MTT assay. The levels of nitric oxide(NO)in RAW264.7 macrophages were measured by Griess assay. Cell supernatants and serum levels of inflammatory cytokines containing IL-6, TNF-α and IL-1β were determined by ELISA kits. Dextran sulfate sodium(DSS)-induced UC model in mice was established and body weight of mice in each group was measured. The histopathological damage degree of colonic tissue was assessed by HE staining. The protein expression of p-p38, p-ERK1/2 and p-JNK was detected by Western blot. Results MW-9 intervention significantly inhibited NO release in RAW264.7 macrophages with IC50 of 20.47 mg·L-1 and decreased the overproduction of inflammatory factors IL-6, IL-1β and TNF-α(P<0.05). MW-9 had no cytotoxicity at the concentrations below 6 mg·L-1. After MW-9 treatment, mouse body weight was gradually reduced, and the serum IL-6, IL-1β and TNF-α levels were significantly down-regulated. Compared with the model group, MW-9 significantly decreased the expression of p-p38 and p-ERK1/2 protein. Conclusions MW-9 has significant anti-inflammatory activities both in vitro and in vivo, and its underlying mechanism for the treatment of UC may be associated with the inhibition of MAPK signaling pathway.

Objective To investigate the clinical characteristics of female migraine patients with patent foramen ovale(PFO)and design a risk prediction model for PFO in female migraine patients(migraineur patients PFO risk prediction model,MPRPM).Methods Female migraine patients who visited Zhongshan Hospital,Fudan University from Jun 1,2019 to Dec 31,2022 were included.Preoperative information and follow-up results after discontinuation of medication were collected.Patients were divided into PFO-positive and PFO-negative groups based on transesophageal echocardiography results.A multivariate Logistic regression model and a random forest model were constructed,and the random forest model was validated multidimensionally.Key features were selected based on the mean decrease accuracy(MDA)to construct MPRPM.Results A total of 305 female patients were included in the study,with 204 patients in the PFO-positive group and 101 patients in the PFO-negative group.Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that age at migraine onset,attack frequency,severe impact on life during attacks,exercise-related headaches,menstruation-induced headaches,aura migraines,and a history of cryptogenic stroke were predictive factors for PFO positivity.The random forest model effectively predicted the incidence of PFO in female migraine patients,with an AUC of 0.895(95%CI:0.847-0.943).MPRPM demonstrated a sensitivity of 71.6%and specificity of 91.1%(AUC:0.862,95%CI:0.818-0.906,P<0.001).The optimal cut-off value was 2.5 points.Patients correctly classified by the model showed a higher rate of symptom improvement compared to incorrectly classified patients(94.3%vs.82.0%,P=0.023).Conclusion We identified predictive factors for PFO in migraine patients.MPRPM can provide guidance in the diagnostic process and therapeutic decision-making for female migraine patients,assist in patient triage,and reduce the healthcare burden.

Objective:To understand the serological characteristics of irregular antibodies in pregnant women and explore their clinical significance.Methods:From January 2017 to March 2022,151 471 pregnant women in Women and Children's Hospital of Chongqing Medical University were enrolled in this study,microcolumn gel card test was used for irregular antibody screening,and antibody specificity identification was further performed in some antibody-positive subjects.Results:The positive rate of irregular antibody screening in the enrolled pregnant women was 0.91％(1 375/151 471),0.23％(355/151 471)was detected in the first trimester,0.05％(71/151 471)in the second trimester,and 0.63％(949/151 471)in the third trimester.The positive rate of irregular antibody screening in the third trimester was significantly higher than that in the first and second trimester,and a significant increase in the number of positive cases was found in the third trimester than that in the second trimester.The analysis of agglutination intensity of 1 375 irregular antibody screening positive results showed that the weakly positive agglutination intensity accounted for 50.11％(689/1 375),which was the highest,the suspicious positive was 18.69％(257/1 375),and the positive was 31.20％(429/1 375).The significant difference in distribution of agglutination intensity was not observed between the first trimester group and the second trimester group,however,in the third trimester,the proportion of suspicious positive and weakly positive was lower than the first trimester,while,the proportion of positive was higher than the first trimester,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.001).Among the irregular antibody screening positive pregnant women,the proportion of pregnant women with pregnancy number ≥ 2 was significantly higher than that with pregnancy≤1.Among 60 pregnant women who underwent antibody identification,the distributions of the antibodies were as follows:Rh blood group system accounted for 23.33％(14/60),Lewis system 43.33％(26/60),Kidd system 3.33％(2/60),MNS system 16.67％(10/60),P1PK system 1.67％(1/60),autoantibodies 1.67％(1/60),and 4 cases was unable to identify(6.67％,4/60).Among specific antibodies,the anti-Lea was the most common(30.00％),followed by anti-E(16.67％)and anti-M(16.67％).Conclusion:The differences of irregular antibody serological characteristics exist in pregnant women from different regions with different genetic backgrounds,understanding the characteristics of irregular antibody in local pregnant women is of great significance for ensuring transfusion safety in pregnant women and preventing hemolytic disease of newborn.

Objective:To analyze the distribution characteristics of Rh phenotype in pregnant and postpartum women in Chongqing area,and to explore the clinical significance of Rh phenotype in pregnant and postpartum women and the feasibility of Rh phenotype compatible blood transfusion.Methods:The ABO blood group and Rh phenotype of 65 161 pregnant and postpartum women were detected by microcolumn gel method,and 48 122 males in the same period were taken as controls.The data were analyzed by Chi-square test.Results:There were 112 870 cases(99.64％)of RhD+in 113 283 samples.In RhD+cases,CCDee(48.39％)and CcDEe(32.88％)were the main phenotypes.The first case of D--phenotype in Chongqing area was detected.413 cases(0.36％)of RhD-were detected,with ccdee(52.78％)and Ccdee(33.41％)as the main phenotypes.Compared with RhD-group,RhD+group showed statistically significant difference in Rh phenotype distribution(P＜0.01).Among 65 161 maternal samples,the positive rate of 5 antigens of Rh blood group from high to low was D＞e＞C＞c＞E,and there was no significant difference compared with male samples(P＞0.05).There was no significant difference in the distribution of Rh phenotype between males and pregnant/postpartum women,as well as between pregnant/postpartum women with different ABO blood groups(P＞0.05).In pregnant and postpartum women,there was no significant difference in distribution of Rh phenotype among the normal pregnancy population,the population with adverse pregnancy history,the population using human assisted reproductive technology(ART)and the population with infertility(P＞0.05).There was no significant difference in the distribution of Rh phenotype between the 4 populations mentioned above and the inpatients in the local general Grade A hospitals and the blood donors(P＞0.05).In RhD positive pregnant and postpartum women,the probability of finding compatible blood for CcDEe phenotype was 100％,the probability of finding compatible blood for CCDee,CcDee and CCDEe phenotypes was 45％-60％,the probability of finding compatible blood for ccDEE,ccDEe and CcDEE phenotypes was 5％-10％,and the probability of finding compatible blood for other phenotypes was lower than 0.5％.The supply of blood with CCDee and ccDEE phenotypes can meet the compatible transfusions requirements of 7 Rh phenotypes in more than 99％of patients.Conclusion:Rh phenotype detection should be carried out for pregnant and postpartum women,and it is feasible to carry out Rh phenotype-matched or compatible blood transfusion for pregnant and postpartum women who need blood transfusion.

Aim To investigate the mechanisms of Ke-chuanting granules(KCT)inhibiting the IL-33/ILC2s pathway and pathogenic T cells to intervene in allergic airway inflammation.Methods Network pharmacolo-gy was utilized to analyze the potential targets and mechanisms of KCT-treated asthma.Allergic asthma models were induced in mice using OVA.Lung histo-pathology was conducted to observe injury changes.ELISA and quantitative PCR were utilized to measure key inflammatory factors and their mRNA expression levels in Th2-type asthma.Western blot was used to detect the phosphorylation levels of relevant proteins in the MAPK pathway.Flow cytometry was performed to evaluate the proportions of ILC2s,Th1,Th 17,Th2 and Treg cells.Results Network pharmacology iden-tified 227 main active components and 143 key targets of KCT in treating asthma,primarily enriched in signa-ling pathways such as MAPK and IL-17.Further vali-dation experiments demonstrated that KCT significantly alleviated lung inflammatory injury in asthmatic mice,reduced the number of B cells,production of I L-4,TNF-α and TGF-β,downregulated JNK phosphoryla-tion levels in lung tissue,as well as mRNA levels of Il-33,Bcl11b,Rorα,Tcf-7,Jun,Mapk3 and Mapk14.KCT intervention reduced the numbers of ILC2s and Th 17 cells in lungs and spleens of mice,and inhibited Th2 cell infiltration in lungs.Conclusions KCT ex-hibits therapeutic effects on allergic airway inflamma-tion in asthma,closely associated with the inhibition of the IL-33/ILC2s pathway,pathogenic T cell subsets,and JNK-MAPK signaling pathway.

Objective:To explore the influence of environment temperature on the incidence of testicular torsion.Methods:We collected the clinical data on 172 cases of testicular torsion diagnosed in the Second Hospital of Hebei Medical University from De-cember 2013 to December 2020.According to the local environment temperature on the day of onset,we divided the patients into groups A(below 0℃),B(0-10℃),C(10-20℃)and D(above 20℃),and compared the incidence rates of testicular torsion among the four groups,followed by correlation analysis.Results:The incidence rate of testicular torsion was 12.8％(n=22)in group A,35.5％(n=61)in B,34.9％(n=60)in C and 16.9％(n=29)in D,the highest at 0-10℃ in group B,with sta-tistically significant difference among the four groups(x2=29.07,P＜0.001).Spearman correlation analysis indicated that the inci-dence of testicular torsion was negatively correlated with the environment temperature(r=-0.261,P＜0.01),with no statistically significant difference among different seasons(x2=5.349,P＞0.05),but higher in autumn and winter than in the other two sea-sons.Conclusion:The incidence of testicular torsion is negatively correlated with the environment temperature,elevated when the temperature decreases,but has no statistically significant difference among different seasons,though relatively higher in autumn and winter.

Objective:To assess the deformation of the bladder-neck opening and the impact of the bladder-neck angle(BNA)on urination in male patients by fluid-structure interaction(FSI)analysis.Methods:We established geometric models of the blad-der,prostate and urethra were established,incorporating both normal and enlarged BNAs,and assessed the effects of BNA alteration on urinary flow by FSI simulation of the flow rate and pressure of the urine within the bladder,bladder neck and urethra,and that of pros-tate displacement as well.We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data on 145 male patients from the Second Hospital of Hebei Medical University between June 2020 and June 2023,39 with acute urine retention(the AUR group)and 106 without(the non-AUR group),and evaluate the impact of BNA on urination based on the urinary flow rate and prostate volume.Results:Comparative simulation a-nalysis showed significant differences in the total urethral pressure and flow rate between the normal and enlarged BNA models(P＜0.05).The maximum prostate displacement was found at the bladder neck,with moderate displacement and unchanged urethral diame-ter in the normal BNA model,but significant displacement and a reduced urethral opening diameter in the enlarged BNA model.FSI analysis confirmed an evident impact of enlarged BNA on urination,more significant in the AUR than in the non-AUR patients(P＜0.05).The BNAs in the patients with the maximum urinary flow rate(Qmax)of＜10,10-15 or＞15 ml/s were 83.7°±2.5°,67.5°±1.8° and 65.1°±4.8° respectively,with statistically significant difference between the former one and the latter two groups(P＜0.05).The BNAs in the patients with normal prostate volume or BPH of grade Ⅰ,Ⅱ,Ⅲ or Ⅳ were 65.0°±3.7°,67.2°±3.1°,71.5°±2.0°,82.8°±3.5° and 105.8°±6.0°,respectively(P＜0.05),with statistically significant difference between BPH grades Ⅲ and Ⅳ(P＜0.05)as well as between these two and the other three groups(P＜0.05),but not among the normal prostate volume,BPH grade Ⅰ and BPH grade Ⅱ groups(P＞0.05).Spearman correlation analysis indicated that BNA was strongly correlated with total prostate volume(TPV),transition zone volume(TZV),intravesical prostatic protrusion(IPP),prostatic urethral angle(PUA),IPSS,and Qmax(P＜0.05).Conclusion:Changes in BNA affect urination and are closely associated with the se-verity of prostate hyperplasia.The BNA may be an important anatomical factor for assessing the severity of lower urinary tract symptoms in BPH patients.

Establish a production line with controllable process and high intelligence, contribute to improve the quality and production efficiency of aconite processed by microwave, and promote the transformation and application of aconite processed by microwave. According to the principle of aconite detoxification and the characteristics of industrial microwave equipment, an industrial production line of aconite processed by microwave was established with diester alkaloids and monoester alkaloids as indicators, and pilot production was carried out. At the same time, the content of active constituents and efficacy were compared with that of the main processed products, such as Shengfupian, Baifupian and Heishunpian. The results showed that the industrial production of aconite processed by microwave can be divided into two stages: "Liquid seal to detoxification - drying and puffing". The content of monoester alkaloids in 10 batches of aconite processed by microwave was 0.071%-0.166% and the content of diester alkaloids was 0.004%-0.016%, which met the relevant requirements of the Chinese Pharmacopoeia in 2020. Compared with Heishunpian and Baifupian, the retention rate of the effective components of aconite processed by microwave was higher. Pharmacological experiments showed that aconite processed by microwave not only retained the anti-inflammatory and analgesic activities of Heishunpian and Baifupian, but also significantly increased the levels of leukocytes and lymphocytes in mice with liver cancer chemotherapy, enhanced the CD4/CD8 ratio in spleen cells of mice (P < 0.05), thus regulating the body's immunity. However, this effect of Baifupian was weak, while Heishunpian and Shengfupian had no such effect. Through the above research, this study established microwave processing line with controllable process and high intelligence, as well produced the aconite processed by microwave with low toxicity and stable quality. It laid a foundation for the industrialized continuous production and clinical positioning of aconite by microwave processed, and provided scientific support for the development and application of microwave technology in the field of traditional Chinese medicine. All animal experiments in this study were reviewed and approved by the Experimental Animal Ethics Committee of Chengdu University of Traditional Chinese Medicine before being carried out (Approval No. 2020-28).
