Childhood primary renal tubular diseases are chronic kidney diseases characterized by impaired renal tubular reabsorption. Primary renal tubular disease has diverse clinical manifestations and lacks of specificity. Laboratory tests are limited，making it prone to missed diagnosis and misdiagnosis. Based on the current knowledge of renal tubular diseases，authors propose early warning signals of renal tubular diseases such as family history of primary tubular diseases，unexplained polyhydramnios during pregnancy，polydipsia，polyuria，delayed growth and development or rickets，decreased muscle strength and tone，unexplained electrolyte disturbance，hyperuricemia，acid-base disturbance，positive urine sugar test，renal tubular proteinuria，urinary imaging examination suggesting kidney stones，calcium deposition，renal cysts and early onset of eye，ear，joint and neuron injury.Meanwhile，some universal management strategies for primary renal tubular disease are proposed，emphasizing the importance of multidisciplinary collaboration，genetic testing and individualized intervention to improve the long-term prognosis of childhood primary renal tubular diseases.

Objective To investigate the correlation of vascular senescence indicators,brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity(baPWV),cardio-ankle vascular index(CAVI),ankle-brachial index(ABI)with total burden of MRI in patients with cerebral small vessel disease(CSVD).Methods A total of 200 CSVD patients admitted to our hospital from November 2023 to October 2024 were retrospectively recruited,and based on their total MRI burden,they were divided into a low-burden group(score:0-1,103 cases)and a high-burden group(score:2-4,97 cases).A athero-sclerosis monitoring device(VS-1500A)was used to detect baPWV,CAVI,and ABI values.The relationships of the three indicators with total MRI burden score and their predictive values for the burden score were analyzed.Results The high-burden group had significantly higher BMI,el-evated homocysteine and uric acid levels,and increased baPWV and CAVI,but lower ABI than the low-burden group(P＜0.01).Multivariate logistic analysis showed that baPWV,CAVI and ABI were independent influencing factors for high MRI burden of CSVD patients.Spearman correlation analysis showed that baPWV and CAVI values were positively correlated(r=0.589,P=0.000;r=0.458,P=0.000),and ABI was negatively correlated with the total MRI burden score of CSVD patients(r=-0.352,P=0.000).ROC curve analysis showed that baPWV(AUC=0.816,P=0.000),CAVI(AUC=0.725,P=0.000)and ABI(AUC=0.676,P=0.000)were all predic-tors for high MRI burden score in CSVD patients.Conclusion baPWV and CAVI are positively,and ABI is negatively correlated with the total MRI burden score of CSVD patients.baPWV,CAVI and ABI show higher predictive value for the high burden score,with baPWV most significant.

Objective To investigate the risk factors of perioperative aspiration to the pregnant women with gestational diabetes mellitus(GDM)and caesarean section,hence to develop a nomogram model for prediction of perioperative aspiration in the pregnant women with caesarean section.Methods A convenience sampling method was used to select a total of 960 pregnant women who had GDM and received caesarean section in our hospital from January 2019 to July 2023.The data obtained from the pregnant women were used as the training set.Further 320 pregnant women who had GDM and received caesarean section in our hospital between August 2023 and December 2024 were assigned as the validation set.Logistic regression was used to analyse the risk factors of perioperative regurgitation and aspiration.A nomogram model of perioperative regurgitation and aspiration for the pregnant women with GDM was established using the R software.The Bootstrap method was adopted to conduct repeated sampling for 1,000 times for model validation.The receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve and the calibration curve were used to evaluate the reliability and prediction of the model.Results The included predictive variables in the model were:the strict preoperative fasting and water deprivation,general anaesthesia,emergency caesarean section,BMI≥28kg/m2,administration of inhaled anaesthetics,operation time over 1 hour,and administration of prenatal antibiotics.The calibration curves of both the training set and the validation set were found comprehensively consistent with the ideal curve.The areas under the ROC curves of the training set and the validation set were 0.855(95%CI:0.781-0.929)and 0.843(95%CI:0.771-0.915),respectively.Conclusion The predictive variables for perioperative regurgitation and aspiration in the pregnant women with GDM include obesity,strict preoperative fasting and water deprivation,general anaesthesia,emergency caesarean section,administration of inhaled anaesthetics,over 1 hour of operation time and administration of prenatal antibiotics.The nomogram model established in this study has a high accuracy and a high clinical value.

Milk-derived exosomes are nanoscale extracellular vesicles naturally present in mammalian milk and are rich in proteins,lipids,nucleic acids,and bioactive metabolites.They exhibit biological activities such as anti-inflammatory,antioxidant,and immunomodulatory effects.Owing to their unique advantages of low immunogenicity,excellent biocompatibility,stability,and natural targeting ability,milk-derived exosomes have emerged as promising natural nanocarriers,garnering significant attention in disease treatment and nutritional interventions.Sarcopenia,characterized by reduced skeletal muscle mass and diminished strength,is closely associated with aging,chronic inflammation,and oxidative stress.Recent studies have highlighted the potential role of milk-derived exosomes in combating sarcopenia.These exosomes can increase myotube diameter,enhance muscle mass and fiber cross-sectional area,and improve exercise performance metrics such as grip strength.Potential mechanisms may include promoting muscle anabolism,improving mitochondrial function through antioxidant mechanisms,and modulating the inflammatory microenvironments.However,challenges remain in their application for sarcopenia at present,such as the unclear mechanisms of key bioactive components[e.g.,microRNAs(miRNAs),L-ornithine,and milk fat globule-epidermal growth factor 8(MFG-E8)],and the targeting and stability of delivery systems need to be optimized.Future research should focus on the functional analysis of components in exosomes,optimization of delivery systems,and preclinical validation to promote their practical application in managing age-related muscle health.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the regulatory effect of autophagy on the resistance of human liver cancer cell Huh7 to lenvatinib. METHODS Using human liver cancer cell Huh7 as subject， the lenvatinib-resist cell model （Huh7-LR） was generated by the low-dose gradient method combined with long-term administration. The sensitivity of parental cell Huh7 and drug-resistant cell Huh7-LR to lenvatinib was detected by using CCK-8 assay and flow cytometry. Western blot assay and GFP-mCherry-LC3 plasmid transfection were performed to detect the expression levels of autophagic protein Beclin-1， autophagic adapter protein sequestosome 1 （p62）， microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3 （LC3） and autophagic level. Furthermore， an autophagy activation model was constructed by cell starvation， the protein expression of p62 and autophagy level were detected by using Western blot assay and GFP-mCherry-LC3 plasmid transfection， and the effect of autophagy activation on the sensitivity of Huh7-LR cells to lenvatinib was detected by flow cytometry. RESULTS Compared with parental cells， the drug resistance index of Huh7-LR cells was 6.2； protein expression of p62 was increased significantly， while apoptotic rate， protein expression of Beclin-1 and LC3Ⅱ/ LC3Ⅰ ratio were all reduced significantly （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）； the level of autophagy was decreased to some extent. Autophagy activation could significantly increase the protein expression of p62 in Huh7-LR cells （P＜0.05） and autophagy level， and significantly increase its apoptotic rate （P＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS Autophagy is involved in lenvatinib resistance， and activating autophagy can reverse the resistance of liver cancer cells to lenvatinib to some extent.

Objective:To investigate the ultrasonic characteristics and evolution pattern of fetal adrenal hematoma (AH).Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of one fetal AH diagnosed at the Affiliated Hospital of Jining Medical University. The study involved a comprehensive search of the relevant cases of fetal AH published from January 1, 1989, to December 31, 2022, in the Yiigle database, China National Knowledge Infrastructure Database, Wanfang Database, and PubMed Database. The clinical features, sonographic characteristics, interventions, and prognosis of fetal AH were summarized. Descriptive statistical analysis was used.Results:(1) Case: An ultrasound at 36 +3 weeks of pregnancy detected a mixed echogenic nodule at the fetal left adrenal region, with clear border and no obvious blood flow signal. Fetal AH was considered. Observations from the close ultrasound follow-up on the case before and after birth, and one year and eight months after birth presented a gradual transformation of the lesion from mixed echogenic to solid echogenic and a reduction following enlargement in lesion size. The lesion was ultimately liquefied and absorbed. (2) Literature review: A total of 12 cases of fetal AH that had clear diagnosis and ultrasound data were retrieved and added to the present case, for a total of 13 cases. Neither prenatal maternal nor postnatal typical clinical manifestations were observed in fetal AH cases. In cases with large hemorrhage and/or bilateral adrenal hemorrhage, mild jaundice and feeding difficulties may be present. Two cases were terminated, one live baby died of heart failure due to vein of Galen aneurysmal malformation, other ten had good prognosis. Fetal AH ultrasound image features demonstrated time-dependent changes, progressing in the sequence of anechoicity, solid echogenicity, mixed echogenicity, and complete absorption of the lesion, or residual hyperechogenicity. Conclusions:Fetal AH is a rare condition that exhibits characteristic transformations in ultrasound image features over time. Conducting close follow-up ultrasound examinations is the preferred and crucial approach to the diagnosis of fetal AH.
