1.Considerations on clinical cure strategies for chronic hepatitis B based on long-acting interferon
Chinese Journal of Clinical Infectious Diseases 2025;18(2):154-160
Long-acting interferons,as one of the recommended drugs for achieving clinical cure in chronic hepatitis B(CHB),exert significant effects through multiple important mechanisms in the treatment of chronic hepatitis B virus infection since their clinical introduction. These mechanisms include inducing antiviral proteins,immune modulation,and regulation of epigenetic modifications. This article systematically elaborates on the antiviral and immune regulatory mechanisms of long-acting interferon,explores clinical cure strategies and influencing factors based on long-acting interferon,and looks forward to the emerging directions of CHB clinical cure in the future,aiming to provide reference for optimizing CHB clinical treatment strategies and improving efficacy.

Objective:To evaluate the classification of petroclival meningiomas(PCM), proposed selection of microsurgical approach and therapeutic outcomes.Methods:Retrospectively analyzed clinical data of 179 cases of PCM from Department of Neurosurgery, Xiangya Hospital, Central South University between January 2011 and November 2020. There were 28 males and 151 females with an age of(49.9±10.2) years(range: 22 to 75 years) and the tumor size of(44.8±10.3)mm(range: 15 to 80 mm). The mean duration of symptom ( M( Q R)) was 18.0(40.6)months(range:1 week to 320 months) and the mean preoperative Karnofsky performance scale(KPS) was 78.6±13.3(range: 40 to 100). The PCM were classified into 5 types according to the difference in the origin of dural attachment, involvement of adjacent structures and growth patterns through preoperative MRI. The surgical approaches were selected based on the proposed classification, and the clinical characteristics, surgical record, and follow-up data of each type were reviewed. Results:The PCM were divided into clivus type(CV, 4 cases), petroclival type(PC, 60 cases), petroclivosphenoidal type(PC-S, 62 cases), sphenopetroclival type with 2 subtypes(S-PC, 50 cases) and central skull base type(CSB, 3 cases). All of 176 cases were obtained microsurgical treatment except CSB type. The gross total resection reached in 124 cases(70.5%) with 112 cases of retrosigmoid approach(RSA), 27 cases of subtemporal transtentorial transpetrosal approach, 13 cases of pretemporal trancavernous anterior transpetrosal approach(PTCA), 12 cases of extended pterional transtentorial approach(EPTA) and presigmoid combined supra-infratentorial approach, respectively. The RSA could be adopted in both of CV type and PC type and most of PC-S type(71.0%). S-PC subtype Ⅰ and subtype Ⅱ were mainly underwent EPTA(40.8%) and PTCA(52.2%), respectively. Seventy-two cases(40.9%) gained new neurological dysfunctions mainly with the cranial nerve paralysis. The postoperative morbidity and complications were recovered or improved with conservative and positive symptomatic and supportive treatment. There was no intraoperative and postoperative death case. One hundred and sixty four cases(93.2%) of operative patients were followed with the duration of 24(48)months(range:3 to 108 months). Tumor recurrence and progress were identified in 14 cases(10.4%) and 14 cases(28.6%), respectively. Compared with postoperative neurological status, 89 patients(54.3%) had improved and 38 patients(23.2%) were still suffering various degrees of neurological dysfunctions during the follow-up. The recent KPS was 84.2±11.4(range: 50 to 100) without statistical difference from preoperative KPS ( t=-1.356, P=0.125). As for each type, there were statistically significant differences in brain stem edema (χ 2=3.482, P=0.038), gross total resection (χ 2=9.127, P=0.001), surgical duration( F=8.954, P=0.013), postoperative length of stay( F=3.652, P=0.025), postoperative complications (χ 2=1.550, P=0.024), postoperative KPS( F=2.856, P=0.042) and tumor recurrence/progress (χ 2=4.824, P=0.013). Conclusion:The precise and comprehensive classification of PCM and specific individual treatment strategy are benefit to evaluate the diverse clinical prognosis, choose optimal surgical approaches, elevate gross total resection, diminish neurological dysfunctions and restraint tumor recurrence, so as to improve the quality of life for patients.

Objective To study the mechanisms of depression by exploring expressional differences of AQPs in the tissues of chronic stress depression rats.Methods Depression model was replicated by unpredicted chronic stress.20 rats were randomly separated into normal control group and model control group,AQP4 and AQP3,AQP8 expressions on hippocampus and gastrointestinal mucosa of rat model with depression were detected by immunochemical staining method.Results Means of optical density of AQP4 of normal group and model group hippocampus were 0.28 ± 0.02,0.22 ± 0.06 respectively,and the difference between two groups was significant statistically(t value was 2.756,P<0.05).The expression of AQP3 on gastric mucosa and colonic mucosa between two groups had no significant statistically(t value were 1.814,1.812,P>0.05).Two groups'means of optical density of AQP3 on small intestinal mucosa were 0.15 ± 0.02,0.17 ± 0.02,and the difference was significant statistically (t value was 2.769,P<0.05).Two groups'means of AQP8 optical density in gastric mucosa were 0.15± 0.01,0.19 ± 0.04 ;0.16 ± 0.01 and 0.21 ± 0.04 in small intestinal mucosa;0.16 ± 0.01 and 0.22 ± 0.04 in colonic mucosa,and the differences were significant statistically(t values were 3.139,5.113,4.534,P<0.05,P<0.01,P<0.01).Conclusion The expression of AQP4 on depression model rat hippocampus are lower than those of the normal group ; and the expression of AQP3 on gastric mucosa and colonic mucosa are no change obviously,but it(')s up-regulation on small intestinal mucosa.The expressions of AQP8 on gastric mucosa and small intestinal mucosa and colonic mucosa are up-regulating.
