Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of nebulized inhalation of recombinant human interferon (IFN) α1b injection in the treatment of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) associated lower respiratory tract infections (pneumonia and bronchiolitis) in children.Methods:A randomized, double-blind, parallel, placebo-controlled add-on design was used.Children with pneumonia or bronchiolitis aged 2 months to 5 years who tested positive for RSV antigen within 72 hours of onset from 30 clinical trial sites including Beijing Children′s Hospital, Capital Medical University between February 2021 and December 2022 were included in this study and randomly divided into 2 groups at a ratio of 1∶1 based on a stratified-block method.Both groups received basic treatments such as cough control, asthma relieving, expectorant treatment, fever reduction, oxygen therapy, etc.The experimental group received additional nebulized inhalation of IFN α1b injection at a dose of 2.0 μg/(kg·time), twice a day.The control group received nebulized inhalation of placebo twice a day.Clinical efficacy was evaluated based on indicators such as the duration of clinical symptoms and signs, and the Kaplan-Meier method was used to calculate the median and 95% CI of the duration of clinical symptoms and signs.The Log-rank test was used to compared data between groups.Safety was assessed through the incidence of adverse reactions and laboratory tests, and the Chi-square test was used to analyze the difference between groups. Results:There were 123 children in the experimental group and 122 children in the control group.The median durations of all the 5 clinical symptoms and signs [including shortness of breath, wheezing, dyspnea (visible retractions), decreased transcutaneous oxygen saturation, and abnormal mental state] in the experimental group after treatment were slightly shortened than those in the control group [2.7 d(95% CI: 1.9-3.0 d)] vs.[2.9 d(95% CI: 2.6-3.6 d), P=0.027].The improvement in dyspnea (retractions) was especially pronounced in the experimental group, with a relief rate of 50.0% (0, 100%) on the first day of administration[compared with 0 (0, 50.0%) in the control group ( Z=2.002, P=0.025)].The median duration of dyspnea in the experimental group was nearly 1 day shorter than that in the control group [1.0 d(95% CI: 0.7-1.7 d) vs.1.8 d(95% CI: 1.0-2.5 d), P=0.046].There were no significant difference in hospital stay [6.0(5.0, 8.0) d vs.6.5(5.0, 8.0) d, Z=0.675, P=0.500], oxygen therapy duration [32.0(14.0, 96.3) h vs.39.0 (24.0, 83.2) h, Z=0.094, P=0.925], the recovery rate from clinical symptoms during treatment [(105/106, 99.1%) vs.(96/101, 95.0%)], and recurrence rate [(0/106, 0) vs.(2/101, 2.0%)] between the 2 groups (all P>0.05).However, the above-mentioned four indicators in the experimental group showed a trend of clinical benefits.The quantitative virus detection results showed that the RSV viral load in both groups decreased after treatment compared to before treatment.After 2 days of treatment, the decline rate of RSV viral load from the baseline was 0.90 lg copies/(mL·d) in the experimental group and 0.25 lg copies/(mL·d)in the control group, with a statistically significant difference ( P<0.05).Furthermore, there was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions between the 2 groups ( P>0.05).Importantly, no drug-related serious adverse reactions occurred in both groups. Conclusions:The nebulized inhalation therapy of IFN α1b demonstrates efficacy and safety in treating pediatric RSV associated lower respiratory tract infections.It particularly offers outstanding clinical therapeutic value for severe children.

AIM: To investigate the predictive value of serum histone deacetylase 1(HDAC1)and endothelial nitric oxide synthase(eNOS)for infectious endophthalmitis after cataract surgery.METHODS: A total of 362 cataract patients(362 eyes)admitted to our hospital from January 2020 to January 2023 were selected as the research objects. According to the occurrence of postoperative infectious endophthalmitis, they were divided into infection group(15 cases, 15 eyes)and non-infection group(347 cases, 347 eyes). Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA)was applied to detect the levels of serum HDAC1 and eNOS in all subjects, and the levels of serum HDAC1 and eNOS in both groups were compared; the influencing factors of infectious endophthalmitis were analyzed by multivariate Logistic regression; the receiver operative curve(ROC)was applied to analyze the predictive value of serum HDAC1 and eNOS levels for postoperative infectious endophthalmitis in cataract patients.RESULTS: The levels of serum HDAC1 and eNOS in the infected group were obviously higher than those in the uninfected group(all P<0.01). Surgical time, vitreous overflow, HDAC1, and eNOS were all risk factors for postoperative infectious endophthalmitis(all P<0.05). ROC results showed that the AUC of HDAC1 and eNOS in predicting postoperative infectious endophthalmitis in cataract patients was 0.878 and 0.877, respectively, with sensitivity of 88.7% and 87.7%, specificity of 70.4% and 7.8%, respectively, while the AUC of the two combination in predicting postoperative infectious endophthalmitis in cataract patients was 0.978, with a sensitivity of 86.7% and a specificity of 85.3%.CONCLUSION:The serum levels of HDAC1 and eNOS in patients with infectious endophthalmitis after cataract surgery are obviously increased, and the combined detection of serum HDAC1 and eNOS can improve the predictive efficacy of infectious endophthalmitis in cataract patients after surgery. Both can provide reference for clinical diagnosis and treatment.

AIM: To investigate the expression changes and significance of serum microRNA-34a-5p(miR-34a-5p)and silent information regulator T1(SIRT1)in patients with endophthalmitis after cataract surgery.METHODS: Patients with endophthalmitis after cataract surgery from May 2020 to May 2024 were selected as infection group(20 cases), and patients without endophthalmitis were selected as control group(74 cases). Serum SIRT1 levels were detected by ELISA; the serum level of serum miR-34a-5p was detected by qRT-PCR; the correlation between miR-34a-5p and SIRT1 was analyzed by Pearson method; Logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of endophthalmitis after cataract operation. Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was drawn to analyze the diagnostic value of serum miR-34a-5p and SIRT1 levels in postoperative endophthalmitis.RESULTS: Compared with the control group, the serum level of miR-34a-5p in the infected group was significantly increased(P<0.001), and the serum level of SIRT1 was significantly decreased(P<0.001). Correlation analysis showed that miR-34a-5p was negatively correlated with SIRT1(r=-0.421, P<0.001). Logistic multivariate regression analysis showed that miR-34a-5p was an independent risk factor affecting endophthalmitis infection after cataract surgery(OR=3.532, P<0.05), and SIRT1 was a protective factor affecting endophthalmitis infection after cataract surgery(OR=0.875, P<0.05). The ROC curve showed that the area under curve(AUC)of serum miR-34a-5p combined with SIRT1 in the diagnosis of postoperative endophthalmitis was 0.933(95%CI: 0.861-0.975).CONCLUSION:Serum levels of miR-34a-5p are highly expressed and SIRT1 is lowly expressed in postoperative endophthalmitis, they are closely related to the occurrence and development of endophthalmitis after cataract surgery.

AIM: To explore the value of changes in the serum expression levels of triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-1(TREM-1)and matrix metalloproteinase-9(MMP-9)in early clinical diagnosis of postoperative endophthalmitis in patients with cataract surgery.METHODS: A total of 21 patients who underwent cataract surgery with infectious endophthalmitis in our hospital from May 2021 to May 2023 were selected as the study subjects(endophthalmitis group), and another 100 patients who underwent cataract surgery without endophthalmitis were selected as the non-endophthalmitis group. The serum levels of TREM-1, MMP-9, and the expression levels of inflammatory factors such as interleukin-1β(IL-1β), IL-17, and tumor necrosis factors-α(TNF-α)were detected and compared between the endophthalmitis group and the non-endophthalmitis group. The correlation between TREM-1 and MMP-9 was analyzed by Pearson method. Logistic regression was applied to analyze the factors that affected the occurrence of endophthalmitis in cataract patients after surgery. Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was applied to analyze the early clinical diagnostic efficacy of TREM-1 and MMP-9 levels for postoperative endophthalmitis in cataract patients.RESULTS: Compared with the non-endophthalmitis group after cataract surgery, the expression levels of serum TREM-1, MMP-9, and inflammatory factors IL-1β, IL-17, and TNF-α in the endophthalmitis group were obviously increased(all P<0.05), and the TREM-1 was positively correlated with MMP-9(r=0.389, P<0.001). Logistic regression results showed that elevated levels of serum TREM-1 and MMP-9 expression, and vitreous overflow were independent risk factors for postoperative endophthalmitis in cataract patients(all P<0.05). ROC curve showed that the area under the curve(AUC)of TREM-1, MMP-9, and their combination in diagnosing postoperative endophthalmitis in cataract patients was 0.845, 0.844, and 0.935, respectively, and the clinical efficacy of the combination of the two in early diagnosis of postoperative endophthalmitis in cataract patients was better than that of serum TREM-1 and MMP-9 alone(all P<0.05).CONCLUSION: The expression levels of serum TREM-1 and MMP-9 in patients with endophthalmitis after cataract surgery are abnormally elevated, and the combination of the two has high clinical application value in early diagnosis of endophthalmitis after cataract surgery.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical effect of the position pillows for neuraxial anesthesia.Methods:This was a prospective randomized controlled trial. Four hundred and twelve patients regardless of gender, aged ≥18 yr, of American Society of Anesthesiologists Physical Status classification Ⅰ-Ⅲ, who underwent elective surgery under neuraxial anesthesia at Peking University Third Hospital from February to October 2023, were selected and divided into 2 groups ( n=206 each) using a random number table method: pillow group (P group) and control group (C group). Group C underwent the conventional procedure for neuraxial anesthesia. The patients were placed in a position using the position pillow on the basis of oral education before routine anesthesia in group P. The success rate of puncture at first attempt, puncture time and position placement time were recorded. The adjustment of position, body movement and occurrence of discomfort during the puncture were also recorded. The visual analogue scale score was used to evaluate the level of anxiety before positioning, after positioning and after anesthesia. The visual analogue scale score was used to evaluate the patient′s comfort and the operator′s satisfaction with position after the anesthesia was completed. Results:Compared with group C, the time for positioning was significantly shortened, the anxiety level was decreased after positioning and after anesthesia, the rate of improvement in anxiety was increased, the scores for the patient′s comfort and the operator′s satisfaction with position were increased ( P<0.05), and no significant changes were found in the success rate of puncture at first attempt, puncture time and incidence of body movement during the puncture and incidence of the adjustment of position ( P>0.05). No discomfort was observed in either group during the puncture. Conclusions:This new type of position pillows for the neuraxial anesthesia can not only optimize the effect of position placement, but also improve the patients′ comfort.
