Objective:To evaluate the diagnostic value of native T1 mapping in differentiating Oxford classification (MEST-C) scores in patients with IgA nephropathy.Methods:In this prospective study, patients who underwent both T1 mapping and renal biopsy at the First Medical Center of the Chinese PLA General Hospital between April 2023 and October 2024 were consecutively enrolled. Two radiologists, blinded to clinical and pathological information, measured renal T1 mapping parameters, including cortical T1 (cT1), medullary T1 (mT1), the corticomedullary difference (ΔT1), and the corticomedullary ratio (T1 ratio). Clinical and renal biopsy data based on the Oxford classification from patients with IgA nephropathy were collected. The Oxford classification includes five indicators: Mesangial hypercellularity (M), Endocapillary hypercellularity (E), Segmental glomerulosclerosis or adhesion (S), Tubular atrophy/interstitial fibrosis (T), and Cellular or fibrocellular crescents (C). Spearman correlation analysis was applied to evaluate the associations between MEST-C scores and T1 parameters. The diagnostic performance of T1 parameters for discriminating among scores of the Oxford classification was analyzed using the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve.Results:A total of 124 patients with IgA nephropathy were included in this study [66 males, 58 females; age 19-70 years, 39 (30, 51) years]. Except for the E indicator, M, S, T, and C were significantly correlated with renal T1 values ( ρ=0.177-0.414, all P<0.05). cT1 showed the best diagnostic efficacy for the S score, with an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.798, a sensitivity of 68.7%, and a specificity of 88.0%. The best T1 parameter for differentiating the T score was the T1 ratio, with an AUC of 0.687, a sensitivity of 57.9%, and a specificity of 79.1%. Conclusion:Native T1 mapping can be used for the non-invasive assessment of the S and T scores in the Oxford classification of patients with IgA nephropathy.

Objective： ：To investigatetheeffectofsalidroside(SAL)onthephenotype of dendritic cells (DCs) and the antitumor ability of cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL). Methods： ：Lewis lung cancer cell line 3LL, wild type (WT) C57BL/6 mice and TLR4-/- C57BL/6 mice were chosen for this study. Mice bone marrow derived DC precursor cells were obtained to differentiate into immature DCs, which were harvested on the sixth day of culture. CD11c+ DCs were obtained by magnetic beads screening, and further divided into PBS group, SAL group and lipopolysaccharide (LPS) group.After being cultured for 48 h, the effects of SAL on surface molecules and phagocytosis of DCs as well as the efffect of TLR4 pathway on the killing effect of T cells were detected by Fow cytometry. Results： ： Compared with PBS group, expressions of DC surface molecules CD80, CD86 and MHC Ⅱ significantly increased (all P<0.05), phagocytosis significantly decreased (P<0.05), and TLR4 expression level significantly increased (P<0.01) in SAL group; Compared with WT group, after being treated with SAL or LPS, the expressions of DC surface molecules CD80, CD86 and MHC Ⅱ decreased significantly in TLR4-/- group (all P<0.05); ComparedwithPBSgroup,theactivatedCTLinSALgroupexhibited a significantly elevated killing effect against lung cancer 3LLcells (P<0.05). Conclusion：SAL can induce DC maturation by regulating TLR4, thus improving the killing ability of T cells.

OBJECTIVE： Te analyze the problems of clinical use in pediatric drug in China， and to put forward related countermeasures and suggestions. METHODS： Using “children” and “pediatrics” as retrieval words， registered drug information were retrieved from the website of China Food and Drug Administration； the data of pediatric drug use prescription was retrieved from hospital prescription system of 9 hospitals； all drug information were retrieved from national drug data management system； off-label drug use investigation and the literatures of pediatric drug use in medical institutions （5 representative third grade general medical institutions） were retrieved from CNKI and Wanfang database. General information and problems of pediatric drug use in China were investigated. RESULTS： A total of 170 009 items of registered drug information were retrieved， including 2 784 drug information items labeled with ”children” or ”pediatrics”， accounting for 1.64％；320 000 drug prescriptions from hospital prescription system of 9 hospitals covered 22 treatment areas involving 1 186 drugs and 51 dosage forms. Only 10％ suitable for children. The retrieval results of database showed that the incidence of children off-label drug use in outpatients prescriptions of 5 hospitals was in high level， mainly manifesting as without the information of pediatric drug use， hyper-indication drug use， hyper-dosage drug use. There were many problems in clinical pediatric drug use in China， such as less variety for children， single dosage form and specification， widespread off-label drug use， lack of scientific reference for drug use， difficulty in developing pediatric drug clinical trials， etc. CONCLUSIONS： Although the policies to protect children’s clinical drug use have been introduced in China， the problems facing children’s clinical drug use in China are still very serious. While further implementing relevant policies， it is necessary to establish a linkage management system led by government departments， with the full participation and mutual cooperation of society， enterprises， medical institutions and patients so as to guaratee the safety of pediatric drug use in clinic.

Objective To explore the application value of preoperative bedside ultrasound in the surgical operation of primary liver cancer (PLC).Methods Clinical data of 23 patients with PLC in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University from October 2016 to May 2017 were retrospectively analyzed.The informed consents of all patients were obtained and the local ethical committee approval was received.Among 23 patients,15 cases were male and 8 female,aged from 27 to 73 years with a median age of 53 years.Bedside ultrasound examination was performed in the patients.The liver was scanned and examined by Doppler ultrasound via the xiphoid process,the right costal margin and the intercostal space,and the results were compared with the preoperative imaging data.Results All the patients received bedside ultrasound examination within preoprative 24 h.The left,middle and right hepatic venous structures of the second porta could be displayed clearly by the scaning from xiphoid process,and the left hepatic segment where the lesions located could be further displayed.The scan form right costal margin showed the anatomical relationship of primary porta and the anatomy of portal vein.The scan from intercostal space could identify the position of lesions in the right lobe and determine the intrahepatic distribution of middle and right hepatic veins and right portal vein,and their relationship with lesions.The lesions located in segment Ⅱ and Ⅲ of 6 cases,segment Ⅳ of 5 cases,segment Ⅴ of 2 cases,segment Ⅴ and Ⅷ of 3 cases and segment Ⅵ of 7 cases.The findings of preoperative bedside ultrasound was inconsistent with that of preoperative CT and MRI.The operation was aborted in 1 case and operative plan was changed in 1 case.Conclusions Preoperative bedside ultrasound can provide more anatomical information and lesion distribution for liver surgery,which can shorten the intraoperative exploration time and adjust the surgical plan timely.

Purpose To explore the relationship of Tei index and the concentration of plasma brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy. Materials and Methods Fifty healthy individuals (control group) and fifty dilated cardiomyopathy patients (study group) were recruited in this study. BNP level was measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Color Doppler echocardiography were performed to measure the cardiac indices including left ventricular end-diastolic dimension (LVEDd), left ventricular end-systolic diameter (LVESd), interventricular septal thickness at diastole (IVSd), left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF). Tei index was then calculated. The indices between the two groups were compared and correlation of Tei index and BNP with cardiac indices was analyzed. Results LVEDd, LVESd, Tei index, and BNP were significantly higher in study group than those in control group (t=14.4, 23.4, 21.9 and 22.3, P<0.01). IVSd and LVEF were significant lower in the study group (t=12.4 and 12.5, P<0.01). BNP was negatively correlated with LVEF (r= -0.266, P<0.05), and positively correlated with Tei index and LVEDd (r=0.401 and 0.326, P<0.05). Tei index was negatively correlated with LVEF and E/A (r= -0.480 and - 0.241, P<0.05), and positively correlated with LVEDd (r=0.375, P<0.05). Multiple stepwise regression analysis showed that the variates of BNP stepwise regression equation were Tei index, LVEF and LVEDd (t=5.984, -2.477 and 2.326, P<0.05); after correcting LVEF, the stepwise regression analysis showed closer relationship between Tei index and BNP (t=2.728, P<0.05). Conclusion There is correlation between Tei index and BNP. Tei index may be a good index for accurately estimating global ventricular function.

Objective To explore the relationship between enterprising and magnanimous psychological characteristics and coping modes in cancer patients.Methods Totally 450 cancer patients were randomly chosen to analyze the correlation using enterprising and magnanimous questionnaires and cancer coping modes questionnaires.T-test,Variance analysis and Pearson analysis were employed for statisticals.Results (1) The enterprising and magnanimous psychological characteristics:cancer patients generally got lower scores in the dimensions of enterprising,magnanimous,and total score (59.30±8.09,31.98±6.24,27.32±4.02,respectively) than healthy population (67.44±5.60,34.72±4.57,32.72±3.23,respectively).In demographic level,male and female cancer patients' scores were also lower than the healthy ones'.The higher academic backgrounds they had,the better enterprising and magnanimous psychological attitudes they embraced.In the comparison of occupation,professionals in administrative and companies scored the highest in the dimensions of enterprising,workers in special techniques,commercial and service industries scored higher in the dimensions of magnanimous.All the differences were significant statistically (P＜0.05).(2) Correlation analysis:the correlation index between psychological characteristics of enterprising and magnanimous and the coping modes in cancer patients was 0.463,with a positive correlation(P＜0.01),and the indexes among in the dimensions of enterprising and confrontation were regarded as a positive correlation (r=0.415),and negative correlations (r =-0.139,r =-0.047,respectively) with avoidance and suppression and resignation (P＜0.01).Conclusion The enterprising and magnanimous mental level of cancer patients is lower,which is related to their inappropriate responses of avoidance and suppression and resignation.
