Identifying the compound formulae-related xenobiotics in bio-samples is full of challenges.Conventional strategies always exhibit the insufficiencies in overall coverage,analytical efficiency,and degree of automation,and the results highly rely on the personal knowledge and experience.The goal of this work was to establish a software-aided approach,by integrating ultra-high performance liquid chromatography/ion-mobility quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry(UHPLC/IM-QTOF-MS)and in-house high-definition MS2 library,to enhance the identification of prototypes and metabolites of the compound formulae in vivo,taking Sishen formula(SSF)as a template.Seven different MS2 acquisition methods were compared,which demonstrated the potency of a hybrid scan approach(namely high-definition data-independent/data-dependent acquisition(HDDIDDA))in the identification precision,MS1 coverage,and MS2 spectra quality.The HDDIDDA data for 55 reference compounds,four component drugs,and SSF,together with the rat bio-samples(e.g.,plasma,urine,feces,liver,and kidney),were acquired.Based on the UNIFI? platform(Waters),the efficient data processing workflows were estab-lished by combining mass defect filtering(MDF)-induced classification,diagnostic product ions(DPIs),and neutral loss filtering(NLF)-dominated structural confirmation.The high-definition MS2 spectral li-braries,dubbed in vitro-SSF and in vivo-SSF,were elaborated,enabling the efficient and automatic identification of SSF-associated xenobiotics in diverse rat bio-samples.Consequently,118 prototypes and 206 metabolites of SSF were identified,with the identification rate reaching 80.51%and 79.61%,respectively.The metabolic pathways mainly involved the oxidation,reduction,hydrolysis,sulfation,methylation,demethylation,acetylation,glucuronidation,and the combined reactions.Conclusively,the proposed strategy can drive the identification of compound formulae-related xenobiotics in vivo in an intelligent manner.

Objective:To evaluate the feasibility and applicability of using phospholipid-hybridization method for preparing biomimetic microbubbles (Bio-MBs) ultrasound contrast agents.Methods:Leukocyte biomimetic microbubbles (MB leu), platelet biomimetic microbubbles (MB pla) and erythrocyte biomimetic microbubbles (MB ery) were prepared by multiple steps: film-hydration, phospholipid-hybridization, mechanical oscillation. The size and zeta potential of Bio-MBs were measured by dynamic light scattering. A laser scanning confocal microscopy experiment was performed to confirm the presence of membrane proteins on the shell of Bio-MBs. The fluorescence of FITC-labeled typical membrane protein was evaluated using a flow cytometer. Sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis was used to characterize the membrane protein. Biosafety of Bio-MBs was evaluated by CCK-8 counting kit, blood and major organs. The contrast enhancement effect and stability were observed in vitro and in vivo. An in vivo fluorescence imaging system was performed to evaluate the distribution of Bio-MBs. The application value of biomimetic microbubbles was measured by ultrasound molecular imaging by using ischemia-reperfusion rat models and acute hepatitis rat models. Results:Bio-MBs with spherical shape distributed homogenously, without obvious aggregation. The membrane proteins were successfully integrated into the shell of Bio-MBs.The diameter of three Bio-MBs was similar to that of control microbubbles (MB con) ( P>0.05), three Bio-MBs had a lower zeta potential than MB con ( P<0.05). The Bio-MBs had an appreciable performance in vitro and in vivo biosafety. The Bio-MBs retained the main proteins inherited from cell membrane. Contrast enhanced ultrasound imaging in vitro and in vivo showed that the Bio-MBs had a stable imaging ability.MB leu and MB pla have good targeted imaging effect in two disease models. Conclusions:A series of Bio-MBs ultrasound contrast agents, which have high stability, biosafety and targeted imaging efficiency, were successfully prepared by using phospholipid-hybridization method. This fabrication method for obtaining Bio-MBs can be applied to different clinical scenarios with different cell types in the future.

Objective:To compare the safety and efficacy of terbutaline and nifedipine for acute intrapartum fetal resuscitation (IUFR).Methods:This was a prospective randomized controlled study involving 110 pregnant women with non-reassuring fetal heart rate tracings (NRFHT) during delivery at Guangzhou Women and Children's Medical Center between January and April 2021. These women were randomly allocated to receive subcutaneous terbutaline sulphate (0.25 mg, terbutaline group) or oral nifedipine (10 mg, nifedipine group), with 55 subjects in each group. Hemodynamic parameters including blood pressure, heart rate, and oxygen saturation before and 5, 15 and 30 min after treatment as well as the success rate of intrapartum resuscitation, the onset time of medication, and the incidence of postpartum hemorrhage were analyzed using t test, Chi-square test or Fisher's exact test. Results:Two groups both showed no significant difference in the mean arterial pressure or oxygen saturation before or after treatment (all P>0.05). The heart rate was not affected in nifedipine group at any time points ( P>0.05). While the patients treated with terbutaline showed accelerated maternal heart rate 5, 15 and 30 min after administration as compared with the baseline[(97.0±20.2), (99.2±13.8), (91.8±12.6) vs (81.7±11.3) bpm, all P<0.001], but it began to decrease at 30 min, with a drop of 6.4 bpm compared with that at 15 min (95% CI: 1.5-11.2, P<0.05). None of the pregnant women had adverse reactions requiring medical intervention. The rates of successful acute resuscitation were similar in the two groups [terbutaline: 78.2% (43/55) vs nifedipine: 70.9% (39/55), χ 2= 0.77, P=0.381]. Terbutaline had a shorter onset time than nifedipine in slowing the frequency of contractions and returning fetal heart rate to class Ⅰ category [2(1-6) vs 6(1-10) min, U=2 348.50, P<0.001]. No significant difference was found between the two groups in terms of NRFHT-indicated cesarean section, assisted vaginal delivery, or second dose of tocolysis within 1 h (all P>0.05) nor in blood loss volume, postpartum hemorrhage rate, low Apgar score, low umbilical artery pH value (pH<7.2), neonatal asphyxia rate, or neonatal intensive care admission rate (all P>0.05). Conclusion:Terbutaline spends less time than nifedipine to take effect and may be an alternative for acute IUFR without significant adverse outcomes.

According to the presence or absence of deep venous thrombosis of the lower extremities within one month after operation, the patients were divided into lower extremities deep venous thrombosis group ( n=61) and non-deep lower extremities venous thrombosis group ( n=122) . Univariate and multivariate analyses of deep venous thrombosis of lower extremities after thoracoscopic surgery for lung cancer in the elderly were performed, and a nomogram prediction model was constructed according to the multivariate analysis results, and the model was verified. Results:There were statistically significant differences in smoking history ( χ2=13.40, P<0.001) , preoperative chemotherapy ( χ2=8.79, P=0.003) , surgical method ( χ2=7.97, P=0.005) , operation time ( t=7.23, P<0.001) , postoperative bed rest time ( t=10.40, P<0.001) , combined with diabetes ( χ2=6.37, P=0.012) , combined with hyperlipidemia ( χ2=9.58, P=0.002) , preoperative D-dimer ( t=13.08, P<0.001) , preoperative fibrinogen ( t=5.84, P<0.001) and preoperative platelet count ( t=7.01, P<0.001) between the lower extremity deep venous thrombosis group and the non-lower extremity deep venous thrombosis group. The results of multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that preoperative chemotherapy ( OR=2.45, 95% CI: 1.05-5.71, P=0.038) , surgical method ( OR=2.55, 95% CI: 1.14-5.73, P=0.023) , postoperative bed rest time ( OR=1.50, 95% CI: 1.24-1.81, P<0.001) , combined with diabetes ( OR=3.60, 95% CI: 1.05-12.33, P=0.042) , and preoperative D-dimer ( OR=1.01, 95% CI: 1.01-1.01, P<0.001) were all independent risk factors for lower extremity deep vein thrombosis in elderly patients with lung cancer after thoracoscopic surgery. The C-index of nomogram for predicting lower extremity deep vein thrombosis-related factors was 0.86 (95% CI: 0.81-0.93) . The calibration curve showed that the model had a good correlation in predicting lower extremities deep venous thrombosis. Conclusion:Preoperative chemotherapy, surgical method, postoperative bed rest time, combined with diabetes, and postoperative D-dimer level are influence factors for lower extremity deep vein thrombosis in elderly patients with lung cancer after thoracoscopic surgery. The nomogram prediction model established in this study has high accuracy and discrimination for the prediction of lower extremity deep vein thrombosis in elderly patients with lung cancer after thoracoscopic surgery.

Chinese Journal of School Health 2020;41(11):1668-1670
Objective:
To explore the association between interaction effects of dietary behaviors and caregivers s type on overweight or obesity among left-behind children, and to provide a reference for overweight or obesity prevention among the left-behind children.
Methods:
From October to December 2018, 877 left-behind children aged 7-18 years were randomly selected from a stratified cluster in county, Shangrao City, Jiangxi Province.Type of caregives, dietary behavior, health status were collected from questionnaires, height, weight were examined.
Results:
The detection rate of overweight and obesity in left-behind children was 21.7%(190/877), and the rate of overweight and obese left-behind children with other foster parents was 29.8%(158/530), higher than the rate of 16.2%(32/198). The detection rate of overweight and obesity of left-behind children who consumed high level of western fast food was 59.0%(59/100). There were significant differences in rate of overweight and obesity by type of caregiver and western food consumption. Regression analysis showed that the detection rate of overweight and obesity of left-behind children who often ate western fast food was 5.70 times(95%CI=3.62-8.99) high than that of those who seldom ate western fast food. Interaction analysis showed that the interaction(synergistic effect) of the type of adopter × whether the adopter often ate western fast food(father or mother × yes) presents a positive multiplying interaction(synergistic effect). Left-behind children under paternal or maternal care together with high western fast food consumption greatly increased the risk of overweight and obesity(OR=6.94, 95%CI=2.76-17.44).
Conclusion
Frequent consumption of western fast food together with one parent stay at home is associated with overweight and obesity of left-behind children. These two factors have a synergistic effect, which greatly increases the risk of overweight and obesity of left-behind children. In other words, their interaction is a major risk factor.
