Objective: To investigate the trends in disease burden due to childhood asthma in China from 1990 to 2021 and to project the disease burden from 2022 to 2035, so as to provide insights into formulation of the control interventions for childhood asthma in China. Methods: The prevalent case, agestandard prevalence, disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) and agestandard DALYs rate of children with asthma at ages of 0 to 14 years and their 95% uncertainty interval (UI) in China from 1990 to 2021 were extracted from the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) database. The temporal trends in the disease burden of childhood asthma were evaluated with estimated annual percentage change (EAPC) and its 95% confidence interval (CI), and the disease burden due to asthma was projected among children at ages of 0 to 14 years in China using a Bayesian age-period-cohort (BAPC) model from 2022 to 2035. Results: There were 9.368 3 million (95%UI=6.410 7 million to 14.026 1 million) prevalent cases of asthma among children at ages of 0 to 14 years in China in 2021, contributing to 0.387 9 million (95%UI=0.216 1 million to 0.668 8 million) DALYs loss. The prevalent cases and DALYs of asthma decreased by 37.28% and 52.55% among children at ages of 0 to 14 years in China in 2021 compared with 1990, and the agestandardized prevalence [EAPC=-0.70%, 95%CI=-1.26% to -0.13%)] and DALY rates [EAPC=-1.71%, 95%CI=-2.32% to -1.10%)] also appeared a tendency towards a decline. From 1990 to 2021, the prevalent cases, prevalence, DALYs and DALYs rate of asthma were all higher among male children than among female children, and the disease burden of asthma was higher among children at ages of 5 to 9 years than at other age groups. BAPC model predicted a decline in both prevalent cases and DALYs of asthma among children at ages of 0 to 14 years in China from 2022 to 2035, with 6.759 6 million prevalent cases and DALYs of 0.228 4 million personyears in 2035, while the prevalence and DALYs rates were projected to rise to 5 143.35/105 and 173.75/105 in 2035. Conclusions Despite a reduction in the disease burden of asthma among children at ages of 0 to 14 years in China from 1990 to 2021, the prevalence remained high. The disease burden due to asthma is projected to appear a decline among children at ages of 0 to 14 years in China from 2022 to 2035; however, the prevalence and DALYs rates still rise. Intensified control measures and targeted interventions are required to reduce the disease burden of childhood asthma.

At present,some studies have identified gain-of-function(GOF)mutations in phosphoinositide 3-kinase(PI3K)genes PIK3CD(which encodes p110δ)lead to activated PI3Kδ syndrome(APDS),which can cause immune deficiency,immune dis-order and even tumor by multiple mechanisms of internal immune system defects,such as reduction/senescence/depletion of T cells,impaired development of B cells,and reduced toxicity of NK cells.Here,we review clinical characteristics of APDS induced by PI3Kδ GOF and molecular mechanism of immune deficiency,focusing on molecular mechanism of lymphocyte development,differentiation and functional defects caused by GOF mutation.

The aim of the present study was to investigate the protective mechanism of Forsythia suspensa extracts(FSE)on S.aureus-induced inflammatory injury of rat mammary epithelial cells.Fifty lactating rats were selected and randomly divided into five groups with 10 rats each:the blank control group(the fourth pair of mammary glands were injected with saline),the model group(the fourth pair of mammary glands were injected with 100 pL of S.aureus bacterial solution),the high-dose group(the fourth pair of mammary glands were injected with S.aureus bacterial solu-tion for 24 h,and then the rats were administered by gavage of 3.750 g/(kg·d)FSE for 1-7 d),the medium-dose group(24 h after the fourth pair of mammary injections,the rats were adminis-tered by gavage 1.875 g/(kg·d)FSE for 1-7 d),and in the low-dose group(24 h after the fourth pair of mammary injections,the rats were administered by gavage 0.935 g/(kg·d)FSE for 1-7 d),blood samples were collected 24 h after the last administration of the drug and then the rats were executed.The results showed that the mammary tissue of the model group was severely dam-aged,and the mRNA expression of IKKβ,MyD88,NF-κB,and TLR4 was significantly increased in the mammary tissue(P＜0.05).The relative expression of IKKβ,MyD88,NF-κB,and TLR4 pro-teins in the mammary tissue of the model group was significantly decreased(P＜0.05)by medium and high doses of FSE compared with the model group.Therefore,FSE may play an anti-inflammatory role by inhibiting the Toll-like signaling pathway to improve S.aureus-induced inflammatory re-sponse in rat mammary epithelial cells and decrease the expression of the downstream pathway proteins IKKβ,MyD88,NF-κB,and TLR4.

Enterovirus (EV) includes a group of important RNA viruses with similarity in viral structure and pathogenesis. They can cause various diseases in humans and pose a great threat to human health. The biological events that occur in EV-host interactions are the core topics to be investigated for better understanding the pathogenesis of EV and developing related prevention and treatment strategies. With the development of genomics technologies, RNA modifications and protein post-translational modifications (PTM) in EV and its hosts have drawn much attention and some achievements have been made, which may shed light on developing precise strategies for the prevention and control of EV-associated diseases. In this paper, to better understand the pathogenesis of EV infection and provide reference for clinical translational research, the progress in the roles of RNA modifications and protein PTM in EV-host interactions are summarized.

Objective:To serologically and genotypically analyze the pedigree of a case with a new allele c.175_176insGA of B el subtype and preliminarily explore the molecular mechanism of weak expression of glycosyltransferase B. Method:In the descriptive study,a 23-year-old male voluntary blood donor and his family members were selected for the study. The ABO and Le blood types of the proband and his family members was identified by the test tube method. The agglutination inhibition test was applied to detect the B and H antigens in saliva, and the Sanger sequencing and PacBio (Pacific Bioscience) third-generation haplotype sequencing were performed on the study subjects to identify genotypes. Finally, Expasy software were applied to amino acid translation of DNA sequences and prediction of protein length after gene alteration. ORF finder was applied to predict alternative start codons as well as open reading frames of mRNA, and protein expression mechanisms were analyzed.Results:The proband and her sister were B el subtype, her mother was AB el subtype, her father was normal O type, and all members of the family were Le(a+b+) phenotype. Sanger sequencing results showed that a new allele of c.175_176insGA was found in exon 4 of the proband, her mother, and her sister. Third-generation haplotype sequencing detected the haplotypes of the family members, which revealed that the proband was ABO*O.01.02/ABO*BEL.NEW (c.175_176insGA), the father was ABO*O.01.02/ABO*O.01.02, the mother was ABO*A1.02/ABO*BEL.NEW (c.175_176insGA), and the sister was ABO*O.01.02/ABO*BEL.NEW (c.175_176insGA). Analysis of the protein expression mechanism indicated that although the new allele of ABO*BEL.NEW was presumed to cause a frameshift mutation and result in a premature stop codon p.Asp59Glu*fs20 in exon 5, encoding an inactive glycosyltransferase, an alternative start codon could be utilized to initiate translation of B el subtype functional glycosyltransferase. Conclusion:Expression of the new allele of B el subtype is associated with the translation of B el subtype glycosyltransferase initiated by alternative start codons.

Objective Visual electrophysiology and optical correlation tomography angiography(OCTA)were used to investigate differences in preoperative retinal function in patients with type 2 diabetic cataract(DC)without obvious retinopathy(NDR)and to determine the clinical application of whole-process blood glucose man-agement(WBGM)for improving postoperative vision in DC patients.Methods This study investigated the preop-erative and postoperative visual electrophysiology(N75,P100,photopic FERG,and scotopic FERG),peripapil-lary retinal nerve fiber layer(pRNFL)and peripapillary capillary vessel density(ppVD)data,as well as trends in these data changes during blood glucose management intervention.Results As the course of T2DM progressed,FBG and HbA1c increased,the N75 and P100 lategraduancy periods of patients gradually lengthened,and the photopic FERG,scotopic FERG,pRNFL,and ppVD values decreased at each postoperative time point.At the same time,the best corrected visual acuity(BCVA)of patients after surgery gradually decreased(P<0.05).Compared with that at 1 week after surgery,the BCVA of Group A(without whole-process blood glucose manage-ment)gradually increased at 1 month and 3 months after surgery but showed a downward trend at 1 year after sur-gery.The BCVA of Group B(with whole-process blood glucose management)gradually stabilized at 1 month after surgery,and at all time points after surgery,the BCVA of Group B was better than that of Group A.The results showed that N75 and P100 in Group A were greater than those in Group B,while the photopic and scotopic FERG,pRNFL,and ppVD(%)in Group A were lower than those in Group B.In addition,N75 and P100 in Group A showed a gradual prolongation trend at various time points after surgery,while photopic FERG,scotopic FERG,pRNFL,and ppVD(%)showed a gradually decreasing trend.However,the above data in Group B gradu-ally stabilized at 3 months after DC surgery,approaching the preoperative level of the group(P<0.05).In the state of whole blood glucose management,although N75 and P100 both reached their longest durations at 1 week af-ter surgery,N75,P100,photopic FERG,scotopic FERG,and pRNFL showed a gradually decreasing trend at 1 month and 3 months after surgery,while ppVD(%)gradually increased(P<0.05).At various time points from 3 months to 1 year after surgery,the overall trend of the above indicators remained stable and close to the preoperative values(P>0.05).Conclusion According to the results of the quantitative analysis of visual electrophysiology and OCTA,in DC patients without obvious retinopathy and with the worsening of diabetes,retinal function decreased,but whole-process blood glucose management effectively restored retinal function and improved visual quality after surgery.

Purpose To explore the application value of computed tomography enterography(CTE)in differentiating active staging of pediatric Crohn disease.Materials and Methods The clinical data of 83 pediatric Crohn disease children performed by CTE examination and conducted with pediatric Crohn disease activity index(PCDAI)from January 2019 to October 2022 were selected.According to their different PCDAI scores,the patients were divided into four groups,which were remission stage(11 cases),mild activity period(47 cases),moderate activity period(14 cases)and severe activity period(11 cases),and the parameters of CTE were analyzed.Then the results associated with CTE and the stages of pediatric Crohn disease activity were analyzed.Results The CTE images of different clinical PCDAI activity stages were manifested in the scope of the diseased intestine(χ2=49.934),the enhancement mode of diseased intestinal wall(χ2=56.561),the degree of intestinal cavity stenosis(χ2=31.932),the degree of intestinal wall thickened(χ2=46.535),lymph node enlargement(χ2=17.330);in which there was a significantly difference(P<0.05),respectively.With the aggravation of PCDAI activity stages,the extent of diseased intestinal canal(more than 50 mm,31 cases,37.3%),the layered reinforcement of diseased intestinal wall(27 cases,32.5%),the luminal stenosis(less than 5 mm,19 cases,22.9%),the thickening of intestinal wall(more than 5.0 mm,54 cases,65.1%)were more common.The proportion of occurrence in the enlargement of lymph nodes(more than 7 mm,16 cases,19.3%)was high,with significant statistical significance(P<0.05).Spearman correlation analysis showed that there was a significant positive correlation between pediatric Crohn disease clinical activity stage(all P<0.01)and the extent of the lesion intestinal canal(r=0.500),the enhancement mode of the lesion intestinal wall(r=0.574),the luminal stenosis(r=0.316),the thickening of intestinal wall(r=0.533).Conclusion With the extent of diseased intestinal canal,the degree of the luminal stenosis,the enhancement mode of diseased intestinal wall and intestinal wall thickened increase,and the clinical stage gradually increase.The above four parameters use as characteristic indicators to reflect the activity stage of pediatric Crohn disease.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.
