Objective To analyze the clinical and therapeutic characteristics of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-negative posttransplant lymphoproliferative disease (PTLD) with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) in the context of specific cases and literature. Methods A case of EBV-negative DLBCL (GCB type) after kidney transplantation is reported. The patient was a 45-year-old male who underwent living-related kidney transplantation in 2016 and has been receiving triple immunosuppressive therapy with tacrolimus, mycophenolate mofetil and methylprednisolone since then. In 2024, the patient presented with intermittent fever, night sweats and gastrointestinal symptoms. The diagnosis was confirmed by endoscopic pathology, immunohistochemical staining and positron emission tomography/computed tomography. The R-CDOP regimen (rituximab + cyclophosphamide + liposomal doxorubicin + vincristine + dexamethasone) was used for treatment. Results The patient was diagnosed with EBV-negative DLBCL (GCB type, Ann Arbor stage Ⅳ B). After 4 cycles of R-CDOP chemotherapy, the efficacy assessment was partial remission, and the transplant kidney function remained stable. Conclusions For EBV-negative PTLD after kidney transplantation, it is necessary to break through the "virus-dependent" diagnostic thinking. In clinical practice, the focus should be on protecting the transplant kidney, and individualized treatment plans should be developed for patients.

Objective:To explore the safety and efficacy of intraosseous regional administration (IORA) of vancomycin for preventing infection in primary total knee arthroplasty (TKA).Methods:A total of 124 patients with knee osteoarthritis undergoing TKA between February 2024 and May 2024 at nine hospitals were enrolled. Preoperative infection prophylaxis involved either IORA (0.5 g vancomycin administered via intraosseous regional infusion before incision) or intravenous infusion (1 g vancomycin via peripheral vein). The IORA group included 15 males and 47 females with a median age of 66.5 years (range, 60.0-70.0 years), while the intravenous group included 14 males and 48 females with a median age of 66.0 years (range, 61.8-70.3 years) years. Intraoperative samples were collected including fat and synovium tissues after incision, before prosthesis placement, and after tourniquet release; distal femoral cancellous bone during femoral osteotomy; proximal tibial cancellous bone during tibial osteotomy; proximal intercondylar cancellous bone before prosthesis placement; and peripheral blood from non-infused arms at surgery initiation and after tourniquet release. Vancomycin concentrations were measured using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. Vital sign changes were recorded from admission to 5~10 minutes post-IORA (IORA group) or post-incision (intravenous group). Follow-ups were conducted on postoperative day 1 and 3, and at 1 and 3 months, to document complications including IORA-related adverse events, periprosthetic joint infections, surgical site infections, red man syndrome, acute kidney injury, deep vein thrombosis and so on.Results:Vancomycin concentrations in bone, fat, and synovial tissue samples were significantly higher in the IORA group than in the intravenous group ( P<0.05), while vancomycin concentrations in blood samples were significantly lower in the IORA group than in the intravenous group ( P<0.05). Only 7.3%(41/558) of tissue samples in the IORA group had vancomycin concentrations below 2.0 μg/g (the minimum inhibitory concentration of vancomycin against coagulase-negative staphylococcus), compared to 59.3%(331/558) in the intravenous group (χ 2=11.285, P<0.001). In the intravenous group, 16.9%(21/124) of blood samples had vancomycin concentrations exceeding 15.0 mg/L (the threshold associated with a significantly increased risk of nephrotoxicity), while all concentrations in the IORA group were below this threshold, the difference was statistically significant (χ 2=22.943, P<0.001). There were no statistically significant difference ( P>0.05) in vital signs changes before and after vancomycin administration between the two groups. Two patients in the intravenous group experienced incision exudate, while no other related complications occurred in either group. Conclusions:Compared to the traditional intravenous infusion of 1 g vancomycin, intraosseous injection of a low dose (0.5 g) of vancomycin achieves higher local tissue concentrations in the knee joint with a lower incidence of adverse reactions and is safe for infection prophylaxis. Despite guidelines not recommending the routine use of vancomycin for preventing infection after primary TKA, intraosseous injection of 0.5 g vancomycin may be considered intraoperatively for primary TKA in the following scenarios: patients in medical institutions with a high prevalence of methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) infections, patients with potential preoperative MRSA colonization, or patients with cephalosporin allergy.

Objective:To summarize the experience of diagnosis and treatment of unexplained neonatal intestinal perforation.Methods:A case summary was conducted.Intestinal perforation children who showed unclear etiology during surgical exploration in Fujian Children′s Hospital from October 2017 to October 2023 were retrospectively analyzed.The perforation characteristics, pathological characteristics, etiological analysis and surgical methods were analyzed, and the diagnosis and treatment experience was summarized.Results:There were 21 neonates with unexplained intestinal perforation, including 15 boys and 6 girls.There were more full-term infants (12 cases) than preterm ones (9 cases), and more neonates with normal birth weight (12 cases) than those with low birth weight (9 cases).Intraoperative perforation was detected in the ileum in 13 cases and colon in 8 cases.The perforation diameter ranged between 0.5-2.0 cm.Single perforation was detected in 20 cases, and 1 case had two perforations.All patients underwent full-layer multipoint biopsy and enterostomy.Pathological reports after surgery showed that Hirschsprung disease was confirmed in 10 cases, and Hirschsprung disease allied disorders were diagnosed in 8 cases.The remaining 3 cases had normal ganglion cells, and 2 cases of them had spontaneous intestinal perforation, and 1 case had meconium ileus.After operation, 3 cases gave up treatment, 1 case died, and 17 patients were discharged from hospital at the first stage.Nine cases with Hirschsprung disease received radical surgery at the age of 3-6 months.Six out of 8 patients with Hirschsprung disease allied disorders underwent fistula closure surgery after accurate evaluation.Among the 6 children who received fistula closure surgery, 1 case underwent Santulli enterostomy because of inability to defecate and abdominal distension after surgery.Two of the 6 children undergoing fistula closure surgery were still being followed up.Two cases of spontaneous intestinal perforation and 1 case of meconium ileus underwent fistula closure surgery at the age of 3 months, and postoperative defecation was normal.Conclusions:Intestinal neuronal dysplasia, meconium ileus combined with intestinal perforation and spontaneous intestinal perforation should be considered in unexplained neonatal intestinal perforation.It is recommended that enterostomy and multipoint biopsy should be performed to clarify the pathology before further treatment in children with unexplained intestinal perforation.Santulli enterostomy is a feasible staging operation.

Listeria monocytogenes (L. monocytogenes, LM) is an excellent tumor vaccine vector. In this study, recombinant LM vaccine candidate expressing human papillomavirus type 16 (HPV16) E7 protein was constructed and its charactericts were determined. Through homologous recombination, E7 gene was cloned in frame with the LM4 Phly promoter-signal sequence, and introduced into the chromosome of LM4. The recombinant strain named LM4△hly::E7 with the plasmid-free and antibiotic-resistant gene-free was constructed. LM4△hly::E7 could express and secrete E7-LLO fusion protein; its size is 66 kDa and has immunological activity. Furthermore, LM4△hly::E7 could multiply in RAW264.7 macrophages by confocal laser scanning microscope. Additionally, LM4△hly::E7 could induce specific antibodies against E7 in immunized mice in ELISA. Also, the 50% lethal dose (LD₅₀) of LM4△hly::E7 strain was 3.863×10⁹ CFU (Colony-Forming Units) in C57BL/6 mice with intraperitoneal immunization, which was more attenuated than wild type LM4. Mice immunized with LM4△hly::E7 did not show obvious pathological change. These data show that LM4△hly::E7 expressing E7-LLO fusion protein has good safety, which may provide the materials for research of antitumor effect and would be a promising vaccine candidate for cervical cancer.
