ObjectiveTo analyze the adverse reactions associated with the clinical use of Banxia （Rhizoma Pinelliae）- Wutou （Aconitum） in the same formula， with the aim of providing a reference for the safety of their clinical application. MethodsLiterature on the clinical application of antagonistic herbs "Banxia-Wutou" used in the same formula， published from January 1st， 2014， to June 30th， 2023， was retrieved from databases including CNKI， VIP， Wanfang， SinoMed， PubMed， Cochrane Library， and Embase. A database was established， and information related to adverse reactions was extracted， including descriptions， classifications， specific manifestations， management and outcomes， patients' primary diseases （western medicine diseases and traditional Chinese medicine diagnoses and syndromes）， and medication information （dosage， ratio， administration routes， and dosage forms）. ResultsA total of 79 researches simultaneously used antagonistic herbs Banxia-Wutou in the same formula and reported associated advers reactions. Gastrointestinal adverse reactions were the most common， with 8 studies reporting management of adverse reactions and 3 studies reporting improvement with no intervention. Among the 11 researches， the adverse reaction relieved to extant， while other 69 researches didn't report the managment of adverse reaction and its prognosis. For the primary disease in western medicine system， chronic bronchitis and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease （COPD） were most common， while gastric pain was the most common symptom in traditional Chinese medicine with spleen and kidney deficiency and spleen stomach cold deficiency being the most frequent syndromes. The most common Banxia dosage was 10 g， while for the Wutou， Fuzi （Radix Aconiti Lateralis Praeparata） was predominant with the highest dose at 15 g. The most frequent herbal combination was Banxia-fuzi， with a 1∶1 ratio. The main administration route was oral， and the primary dosage form was decoction. ConclusionGastrointestinal adverse reactions are the most common in the clinical use of Banxia-Wutou antagonistic herb combinations. Research on the safety of "Banxia-Wutou" combinations should focus on respiratory system diseases and spleen-stomach related conditions.

Objective: To investigate the incidence trend and epidemic characteristics of notifiable infectious diseases in Nanjing City from 2004 to 2022, so as to provide the basis for improving the prevention, control, and monitoring strategies of infectious diseases. Methods: Data pertaining to notifiable infectious diseases reported in Nanjing City from 2004 to 2022 were retrieved from the Infectious Disease Surveillance System of Chinese Disease Prevention and Control Information System. Infectious diseases were classified by law and transmission routes. Temporal distribution incidence of notifiable infectious diseases were descriptively analyzed. The trends in incidence of notifiable disease were analyzed using annual percent change (APC) and average annual percent change (AAPC). Results: A total of 33 types of notifiable infectious diseases with 505 275 cases were reported in Nanjing City from 2004 to 2022. The average annual reported incidence was 347.45/105, showing a decreasing trend from 2018 to 2022 (APC=-13.499%, P<0.05), and there was no significant trend overall (AAPC=-1.586%, P>0.05). A total of 203 235 cases of 25 types of class A and B notifiable infectious diseases were reported, with an average annual reported incidence of 139.75/100 000, showing an overall decreasing trend (AAPC=-4.954%, P<0.05). Eight types of class C notifiable infectious diseases with 302 042 cases were reported, with an average annual reported incidence of 207.69/100 000. The reported incidence showed an increasing trend from 2004 to 2018 (APC=10.117%, P<0.05), and a decreasing trend from 2018 to 2022 (APC=-27.467%, P<0.05). There was no trend overall (AAPC=-0.360%, P>0.05). The reported incidence of blood-borne and sexually transmitted infectious diseases was the highest in class A and B infectious diseases, with an average annual reported incidence of 69.88/100 000, which was at a high epidemic level throughout the year, except February. The reported incidence of respiratory infectious diseases was 51.30/100 000, with a high reported incidence in April and December. The reported incidence of intestinal infectious diseases was the highest (178.06/100 000) in class C infectious diseases, with a high reported incidence in June and November. Conclusions The reported incidence of notifiable infectious diseases in Nanjing City was generally stable from 2004 to 2022. The peak incidence of respiratory infectious diseases occurred in winter and spring, and that of intestinal infectious diseases was in summer and autumn. It is necessary to strengthen the surveillance and intervention of blood-borne and sexually transmitted infectious diseases, respiratory infectious diseases, and intestinal infectious diseases to reduce the risk of infectious diseases.

Objective: To evaluate the immunogenicity and safety of co-administration with bivalent human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine and hepatitis E virus (HEV) vaccine, so as to provide reference for optimizing the vaccination schedule. Methods: Females aged 18 to 25 years were recruited from September to October 2021 in Hengdian College of Film & Television in Zhejiang Province and randomly divided into the HPV+HEV group, the HPV group, and the HEV group. The vaccination procedures were one dose each at 0, 1, and 6 months. Immunogenicity was evaluated by detecting the geometric mean titers (GMT) of HPV16 IgG, HPV18 IgG, and/or HEV IgG antibodies before the first vaccination and one month after the full course of immunization, and comparing the difference in seroconversion, and the GMT ratio. The non-inferiority margin was set at a seroconversion difference of ≤5%, and the lower limit of the 95%CI of the GMT ratio was >0.5. Safety was evaluated by collecting conjunctive local reactions/events and systemic reactions/events within 7 days after each dose, non-conjunctive adverse events within 30 days after each dose, and serious adverse events throughout the observation period (0 to 7 months). Results: A total of 240 females were included, among whom 236 completed the full vaccination program, including 79 in the HPV+HEV group, 77 in the HPV group, and 80 in the HEV group. One month after the full course of immunization, the seroconversion rates of HPV16 IgG and HPV18 IgG antibodies in both the HPV+HEV group and the HPV group were 100%, and the differences in seroconversion rates were 0 (95%CI: -3.39%-+∞). The seroconversion rates of HEV IgG antibodies in both the HPV+HEV group and the HEV group were 100%, and the difference in seroconversion rates was 0 (95%CI: -3.27%-+∞). The GMT of HPV16 IgG and HPV18 IgG antibodies in the HPV+HEV group was 393.88 and 284.86 IU/mL respectively, which was not inferior to 489.39 and 341.24 IU/mL in the HPV group, and the GMT ratios were 0.80 (95%CI: 0.66-+∞) and 0.83 (95%CI: 0.68-+∞), respectively. The GMT of HEV IgG in the HPV+HEV group was 13.55 U/mL, which was not inferior to 12.72 U/mL in the HEV group, and the GMT ratio was 1.07 (95%CI: 0.92-+∞). The incidences of pain, pruritus, and induration in the HPV+HEV group were 54.43%, 21.52% and 40.51% respectively, which were significantly higher than 10.39%, 0, and 0 in the HPV group (all P<0.05). The incidences of redness/swelling, muscle pain/general weakness in the HPV+HEV group were 2.53% and 0, respectively, which were significantly lower than 12.50% and 16.25% in the HEV group (both P<0.05). Conclusion The co-administration of the bivalent HPV vaccine and HEV vaccine is not inferior to individual vaccination in terms of immunogenicity and safety, and the vaccination plan can be optimized through co-administration.

Objective To explore the expression level of visceral adipose tissue-derived serine protease inhibitor(Vaspin)and secreted frizzled-related protein5(SFRP5)in the serum of children with idiopathic short stature(ISS)and its diagnostic value.Methods 70 children with ISS diagnosed in the First Hospital of Zhangjiakou from December 2021 to February 2023 were selected as the disease group,while 72 healthy volunteer children who underwent physical examination were collected as the control group.Immunoluminescence was applied to detect the expression level of VASPIN,Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA)was applied to detect the expression level of SFRP5 the clinical data of children in two groups were analyzed.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was applied to analyze the diagnostic value of serum Vaspin and SFRP5 for ISS,multivariate Logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of ISS.Results Compared with the control group,the serum Vaspin level in the disease group was obviously increased(2.89±0.92 ng/ml vs 1.81±0.42 ng/ml),while the SFRP5 level was obviously reduced(10.22±2.84 pg/ml vs 13.21±3.53 pg/ml),the differences were statistically significant(t=9.040,5.552,all P＜0.05).The weight,height,body mass index(BMI)and proportion of sexual development stage II～V of children in the disease group were obviously lower than those in the control group,and the differences were statistically significant(t=7.687,6.330,5.559,7.024,all P＜0.05).The area under ROC curve showed that the AUC of Vaspin and SFRP5 and their combined detection in the diagnosis of ISS were 0.768,0.849 and 0.925,respectively,the combined diagnosis efficacy of Vaspin and SFRP5 was better than that of serum Vaspin and SFRP5 alone(Z =3.829,P＜0.001;Z =2.141,P=0.032).Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that BMI(OR=0.508,95%CI:0.260～0.991),Vaspin(OR=3.458,95%CI:1.125～10.631)and SFRP5(OR=0.378,95%CI:0.153～0.935)were the influencing factors for ISS(all P＜0.05).Conclusion The expression level of Vaspin in the serum of children with ISS is obviously increased,while the expression level of SFRP5 is obviously reduced.The two are influencing factors of ISS,and the combined detection of their expression levels has certain value in the diagnosis of ISS.

ObjectiveTo observe the effects of Sargassum and Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma incompatible pair with the Haizao Yuhutang （HYT） on oxidative stress in the liver of goiter rats under the condition of 2 times the dose limit of the Pharmacopoeia of the People's Republic of China 2020. MethodA total of 128 male Wistar rats were randomly divided into a blank group， a model group， a euthyrox group （20 μg·kg^-1）， a HYT group （12.06 g·kg^-1）， a HYT without Sargassum （HYT-H） group （9.90 g·kg^-1）， a HYT without Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma （HYT-G） group （10.26 g·kg^-1）， a HYT without Sargassum and Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma （HYT-HG） group （8.10 g·kg^-1）， and a Sargassum and Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma （HG） group （3.96 g·kg^-1）. The blank group was given deionized water by gavage， and the others were given propylthiouracil （PTU） to replicate the goiter pathological model. Euthyrox was taken as a positive control drug， and the rest of the Chinese medicine groups were given the corresponding decoction by gavage， the material was collected 12 hours after the last dose. The serum levels of aspartate aminotransferase （AST）， alanine aminotransferase （ALT）， alkaline phosphatase （ALP）， and the contents of superoxide dismutase （SOD）， glutathione peroxidase （GSH-Px）， malondialdehyde （MDA）， reactive oxygen species （ROS） in liver tissue were detected in each group. The pathological changes in the liver were observed via hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining. Real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction （Real-time PCR） was utilized to detect the mRNA expressions of Kelch-like Ech-associated protein 1 （Keap1）， nuclear factor E₂-related factor 2 （Nrf2）， heme oxygenase-1 （HO-1）， p53 and Caspase-3 in liver tissues. Western blot was adopted to detect the protein expressions of Nrf2 and HO-1 in liver tissues in oxidative stress-related signaling pathways. ResultCompared with control group， the model group showed significantly increased serum ALT level and contents of MDA and ROS in liver tissues （P<0.05， P<0.01）， significantly reduced activities of SOD and GSH-Px in the liver （P<0.01）， significantly increased mRNA expression of Keap1 （P<0.01）， and significantly decreased mRNA and protein expressions of Nrf2 and HO-1 （P<0.05， P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， the HYT group manifested significantly reduced serum levels of AST， ALT， and ALP （P<0.05， P<0.01）， significantly reduced contents of MDA and ROS in liver tissue （P<0.01）， significantly increased the activities of SOD and GSH-Px （P<0.01）， significantly decreased mRNA expressions of Keap1， p53， and Caspase-3 （P<0.01）， and significantly increased mRNA and protein expressions of Nrf2 and HO-1 （P<0.05， P<0.01）. ConclusionUnder the condition of 2 times the dose limit of the Pharmacopoeia of the People's Republic of China 2020， Sargassum and Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma incompatible pair with the HYT on oxidative stress in the liver of goiter rats had different effects. The HYT that contains Sargassum and Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma has a protective effect on the liver of goiter rats， and the effect is better than that of the HG group， the euthyrox group， and the incomplete groups. Its mechanism may be related to activating the Nrf2/HO-1 signaling pathway to alleviate liver oxidative stress and inhibiting the p53/Caspase-3 signaling pathway to reduce hepatocyte apoptosis.

Objective To investigate the clinical features of hospitalized children with pertussis.Methods The clinical data of 87 hospitalized children with pertussis admitted to Women and Children's Hospital Affiliated to Xiamen University from January 2019 to December 2022 were retrospectively analyzed.According to the age of the children,they were divided into group A(≤3 months of age,35 cases),group B(4-12 months of age,36 cases)and group C(>12 months of age,16 cases).The clinical features of children at different ages were compared.Results The majority of children with pertussis were<1 year old(81.61%),and August was the month of high incidence.Spastic cough(72.41%)was the main clinical manifestation.Other manifestations included redness or cyanosis,vomiting after coughing,crow echo,etc.There were statistically significant differences in the incidence of spastic cough,redness or cyanosis and the contact history of patients with chronic cough among three groups(P<0.05).There were significant differences in the incidence of pneumonia and the average length of hospital stay among three groups(P<0.05).There was significant difference in C-reactive protein level among three groups(P<0.05).Among 87 children with pertussis,37 cases(42.53%)were infected with other pathogens,among which virus infection was the most common.The treatment is effective with macrolides and compound sulfamethoxazole.Conclusion Pertussis is more common in infants under 1 year of age,and the incidence is high in August.Chronic cough patients with close contact may be the source of infection.Spastic cough is the main clinical symptom of children;the younger,the more common symptoms such as spastic cough,redness and cyanosis,the higher incidence of pneumonia and the longer hospital stay.

Objective To investigate the value of monocyte to lymphocyte ratio(MLR)and neutrophil percentage to albumin ratio(NPAR)in predicting diabetic macular edema(DME).Methods One hundred and one diabetic retinopathy patients admitted to the Third Affiliated Hospital of Xinxiang Medical University from January 2018 to February 2023 were selected as the research subjects,and they were divided into DME group(n=56)and non-DME group(n=45)based on fun-dus examination results.The general data such as gender,age,course of diabetes and laboratory indicators were collected by consulting medical records.Fasting elbow venous blood was collected early in the morning of the next day after the diagnosis of DME in both groups,the monocytes(MONO)count,lymphocyte(LYM)count,white blood cell(WBC)count,percentage of neutrophils(NEUT),plasma albumin(ALB),glycosylated haemoglobin(HbA1c)were measured by full automatic blood routine analyzer,and MLR,NPAR were calculated.General information and laboratory indexes of patients in the two groups were compared,and risk factors for DME were analyzed by multivariate logistic regression,and receiver operator characteristic(ROC)curve was applied to evaluate the predictive value of MLR and NPAR for DME.Results The course of diabetes,MONO count,NEUT,MLR,NPAR,WBC count,and HbA1c level of patients between the DME group were significantly higher than those in the non-DME group(P＜0.05);there was no statistically significant difference in gender,age,LYM count,and ALB level of patients between the two groups(P＞0.05).Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that increased levels of WBC,MLR,and NPAR were independent risk factors for the occurrence of DME(P＜0.05).The ROC curve showed that the best cut-off value of MLR was 0.192,and the area under the curve(AUC)for the prediction of DME was 0.729(95％confidence interval:0.631-0.826),with a sensitivity of 58.9％and a specificity of 82.2％;while the best cut-off value of NPAR was 1.404,and the AUC for predicting DME occurrence was 0.884(95％confidence interval:0.820-0.949),with a sensitivity of 75.0％and a specificity of 91.1％;the AUC of MLR and NPAP for predicting the occurrence of DME was 0.906(95％confidence interval:0.851-0.906),with a sensitivity of 69.6％and a specificity of 93.3％.With MLR＞0.192 as positive and NPAR＞1.404 as positive,the parallel test of MLR and NPAR predicted the occurrence of DME with a sensitivity of 87.5％,a specificity of 71.1％,and an accuracy of 80.2％;while the tandem test of MLR and NPAR predicted the occurrence of DME with a sensitivity of 46.4％,a specificity of 97.8％,and an accuracy of 69.3％.Conclusion Increased levels of MLR and NPAR are independent risk factors for the occurrence of DME and have certain predictive value for DME.The predictive value of combined MLR and NPAR test for DME is higher than that of separate test,and parallel experiment is more helpful for the early prediction of DME.

Objective To compare and analyze clinical effects of three correction methods in type Ⅲnipple retraction.Methods A total of 93 patients with type Ⅲ nipple retraction were retrospectively enrolled at Clifford Hospital between May 2018 and December 2023.Based on the different surgical methods employed,they were categorized into three groups:group A(silk traction method,n=30),group B(areola double-flap method,n=31),and group C(areola single-flap method,n=32).The study compared the operation time,therapeutic efficacy,hemodynamic disorders,improvement in nipple appearance and function,complications,patient satisfac-tion,and recurrence rates among these three groups.Results The operation duration was significantly longer in group B compared to groups A and C(P<0.05).Group C exhibited a significantly higher total response rate than groups A and B(P<0.05),while no significant difference was observed between groups A and B(P>0.05).There were no significant differences in the incidence of hemodynamic disorders among the three groups(P>0.05).The improvement scores for nipple appearance and function were significantly higher in group C compared to groups A and B(P<0.05),with no significant difference between groups A and B(P>0.05).The incidence of complications was lower,satisfaction was higher,both being statistically significant,in group C compared to groups A and B(P<0.05),but there were no significant differences in the incidence of complications or satisfaction between groups A and B(P>0.05).The recurrence rate was significantly lower in group B and group C than in group A(P<0.05).Conclusion The correction effect of the areola single-flap method is superior to that of the silk trac-tion method and areola double-flap method in patients with type Ⅲ nipple retraction,thereby enhancing clinical efficacy,patient satisfaction,nipple aesthetics,and functionality while reducing complications and recurrence rates.
