Objective To observe the effect of omeprazole enteric-coated capsules on clinical symptoms and serum inflammatory factor levels in children with chronic gastritis and peptic ulcer.Methods Children with chronic gastritis and peptic ulcer were divided into treatment group and control group by random number table method.The control group was given triple therapy of ranitidine hydrochloride tablets,amoxicillin and clarithromycin,while the treatment group was treated with omeprazole enteric-coated capsules combined with amoxicillin and clarithromycin.Clinical efficacy,symptom relief time,and changes in serum motilin(MOT),gastrin(GAS)and inflammatory factors[interlrukin-6(IL-6)and interlrukin-8(IL-8)]were compared between the two groups.Results There were 48 cases in treatment group and 48 cases in control group.After treatment,the total effective rates in treatment group and control group were 93.74％(45 cases/48 cases)and 85.42％(41 cases/48 cases),with significant difference(P＜0.05).After treatment,the disappearance time of ulcer induced pain in treatment group and control group were(1.51±0.26)and(2.08±0.42)d;the disappearance time of acid regurgitation were(2.29±0.40)and(2.93±0.33)d;the disappearance time of burning sensation were(2.37±0.21)and(2.85±0.54)d;the length of hospital stay were(6.21±1.07)and(6.94±1.25)d;serum MOT levels were(298.48±35.15)and(273.58±31.25)pg·mL-1;serum GAS levels were(167.28±19.46)and(128.32±18.61)ng·L-1;IL-6 levels were(58.67±5.39)and(76.14±6.63)mg·mL-1;IL-8 levels were(50.08±5.16)and(58.68±5.49)mg·mL-1.The above indexes were significantly different between control group and treatment group(all P＜0.05).The total incidence of adverse drug reactions in treatment group and control group were 8.33％and 12.50％,with no statistical significance(P＞0.05).Conclusion Omeprazole enteric-coated capsules in the treatment of children with chronic gastritis and peptic ulcer can effectively alleviate various clinical symptoms and improve clinical efficacy.At the same time,it can lower serum levels of inflammatory factors and improve inflammation,with good effect.

Objective To evaluate the bioequivalence and safety of two voriconazole for injection in healthy Chinese subjects,and to explore the safety of the excipient sulfobutyl-β-cyclodextrin.Methods A single-center,single-dose,randomized,open-label,two-preparation,two-period,double-crossover trial design.A total of 18 healthy subjects were enrolled and administrated with a single intravenous infusion of voriconazole test drug and reference drug at 4 mg·kg-1 under fasting conditions,with a sequence determined by randomization.The concentrations of voriconazole in plasma and sulfobutyl-β-cyclodextrin in urine were determined by high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry(HPLC-MS/MS).Phoenix WinNonlin 8.2 software was used to calculate pharmacokinetic parameters of voriconazole in plasma,and SAS(version 9.4)software was used to calculate pharmacokinetic parameters of sulfobutyl-β-cyclodextrin in urine and bioequivalence analysis.Results Major pharmacokinetic parameters of voriconazole in plasma after a single intravenous infusion of voriconazole test drug and reference drug in 18 healthy subjects in a fasted state were as follows:Cmax were(2 177.00±399.10)and(2 265.00±378.70)ng·mL-1;AUC0-t were(14 612.07±8 182.95)and(15 144.69±7 814.02)ng·h·mL-1;AUC0-∞ were(16 217.48±10 862.78)and(16 863.18±10695.75)ng·h·mL-1;tmax were 2.00 and 1.98 h,respectively.The 90％confidence intervals of the geometric mean ratios of Cmax,AUC0-t and AUC0-∞ for the two drugs were within the equivalence range of 80.00％to 125.00％.Conclusion The two voriconazole for injection preparations were bioequivalent and safe when administered by intravenous infusion under fasting conditions in healthy Chinese subjects.

Acupuncture, a therapeutic treatment defined as the insertion of needles into the body at specific points (ie, acupoints), has growing in popularity world-wide to treat various diseases effectively, especially acute and chronic pain. In parallel, interest in the physiological mechanisms underlying acupuncture analgesia, particularly the neural mechanisms have been increasing. Over the past decades, our understanding of how the central nervous system and peripheral nervous system process signals induced by acupuncture has developed rapidly by using electrophysiological methods. However, with the development of neuroscience, electrophysiology is being challenged by calcium imaging in view field, neuron population and visualization in vivo. Owing to the outstanding spatial resolution, the novel imaging approaches provide opportunities to enrich our knowledge about the neurophysiological mechanisms of acupuncture analgesia at subcellular, cellular, and circuit levels in combination with new labeling, genetic and circuit tracing techniques. Therefore, this review will introduce the principle and the method of calcium imaging applied to acupuncture research. We will also review the current findings in pain research using calcium imaging from in vitro to in vivo experiments and discuss the potential methodological considerations in studying acupuncture analgesia.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of fronto-orbital plasty using premature frontal suture osteotomy with frontoparietal transposition for the treatment of metopic synostosis.Methods:Retrospective analysis was performed on the clinical data of children with metopic synostosis who were treated in the Department of Burns and Plastic Surgery, Children’ s Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from January 2015 to October 2023 with fronto-orbital plasty, which involved premature frontal suture osteotomy with frontoparietal transposition. The frontal and parietal bones were divided into two bones, then the supraorbital bridge was cut off and the premature frontal suture was removed. The parietal bone block was then placed on the upper edge of the orbital bone, followed by the placement of the two pieces of the frontal bone on the upper edge of the parietal bone. Finally, all bone blocks were secured using absorbable plates. Pre-and post-operative CT scans and reconstructions were performed to measure changes in cranial cavity volume, and complications such as cerebrospinal fluid leakage, infection, and recurrence of metopic synostosis were followed up.Results:A total of 5 patients with metopic synostosis were enrolled, 4 males and 1 female, aged 5 to 14 months. The operation time was 4.5 to 5.5 hours, and the intraoperative blood loss was 50 to 150 ml. All patients completed the treatment without serious complications. The cranial cavity volume increased by 48.53 to 172.00 cm 3 after the operation. Follow-up was conducted for 3 to 6 months, and the trigonocephaly was completely improved without any serious complications. Short-term follow-up indicated stable craniofacial morphology. Conclusion:Fronto-orbital plasty using premature frontal suture osteotomy with frontoparietal transposition is an effective and safe treatment for metopic synostosis. The procedure has a low risk of recurrence and complications, and the result are positive. Recurrence was scarce in the short term, and the long-term situation needs to be observed.

Objective To develop a health belief model(HBM)based adolescent alcohol-related cognition scale to measure adolescent alcohol-related cognition and test its reliability and validity.Methods The adolescents'alcohol-related cognitive scale was developed based on HBM model.By using purposive sampling,three general high schools in Qingpu District,Shanghai were selected.One-third of the classes from grades 10 and 11 in each school were randomly selected,and the students from these classes were surveyed as the research subjects.Exploratory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis were used to analyze its reliability(internal consistency reliability and combination reliability)and validity(structural validity,convergent validity,discriminative validity and criterion validity).Results A total of 970 questionnaires were collected,of which 948 were valid,with an effective rate of 97.7%.The adolescents'alcohol-related cognitive scale contained 22 items.Five common factors were extracted from exploratory factor analysis,including perceived susceptibility,perceived severity,perceived benefits,perceived obstacles,and self-efficacy.The cumulative variance contribution rate reached 83.89%.The results of confirmatory factor analysis confirmed the overall fit of the model.The average variance extracted value(AVE)of each dimension was greater than 0.5,and the convergent validity of the model was ideal.The AVE square root of each dimension of the scale was greater than its correlation coefficient,indicating good discrimination validity.Cronbach's α coefficient of the total volume table was 0.892,indicating good overall reliability.Conclusion The adolescents'alcohol-related cognitive scale developed in this study has good reliability and validity,which can be used to measure adolescents'alcohol-related perceptions.

Objective:To explore the methods and clinical effects of reconstructing facial and cervical scars with expanded flaps based on the "MLT" principle.Methods:The study was a retrospective observational study. From January 2019 to May 2022, 74 patients with facial and cervical scars after burn or trauma injuries who met the inclusion criteria were admitted to Xiangya Hospital of Central South University, including 38 males and 36 females, aged from 5 to 58 years, including 24 patients with simple facial involvement, 24 patients with simple cervical involvement, and 26 patients with both facial and cervical involvement, with scar area ranging from 12 to 145 cm2. By following the "MLT" principle (color and texture similar to the face; flap area large enough to reconstruct the entire defect; skin tissue thin enough to transmit the expression, so as to facilitate the shape of the face and five features); in the stage Ⅰ surgery, the skin and soft tissue expanders (hereinafter referred to as the expanders) were implanted, and in the stage Ⅱ surgery, the expander removal+scar resection+flap transplantation to repair the secondary wound was performed, and the wound in the donor area of flap was directly sutured. After operation, silicone gel preparation and laser therapy were used to prevent scar hyperplasia. The expansion ratio and time period of expanders, the occurrence of complications of skin and soft tissue expansion surgery, the type of flap used, and the survival of flap after the stage Ⅱ surgery were observed and recorded. The long-term effect of facial and cervical reconstruction and the recovery of donor area and recipient area of flap were evaluated during the postoperative follow-up after surgery.Results:The expansion ratio of 135 expanders ranged from 1.36 to 3.00 times, and the expansion time period ranged from 6 to 14 months. During skin and soft tissue expansion surgery, 8 patients had poor healing of incisions after expander placement, 7 patients had expander rupture, 5 patients had infection in incisions after expander placement, 3 patients had expander exposure, 2 patients had difficult filling the injection pot, and 1 patient had water leakage from the injection pot. Dorsal shoulder expanded flaps with double blood supply of transverse cervical artery and circumflex scapular artery were used in 8 patients, the expanded flaps of anterior transverse carotid artery perforator were used in 11 patients, the expanded flaps of internal thoracic artery perforator were used in 12 patients, tandem expanded flaps of upper chest and neck were used in 16 patients, dorsal thoracic artery perforator expanded flaps were used in 5 patients, and adjacent rotary propulsive expanded flaps were used in 22 patients. After the stage Ⅱ surgery, the flaps of 71 patients were completely survived. One patient had blood circulation disorder in the flap, and the flap survived after hyperbaric oxygen treatment. Necrosis occurred at the end of the flaps in 2 patients, which healed after dressing change. After the surgery, 42 patients were followed up for 3 to 24 months. The color, texture, and thickness of flaps were good and similar to the surrounding normal skin tissue in the recipient area, the appearance and function of the face and neck were significantly improved, and the wound location in the donor and recipient areas of flaps was concealed with slight scar formation.Conclusions:In the reconstruction of facial and neck scars, by following the "MLT" principle, the expanded flap was carefully designed before surgery, the local aesthetic features within the subunit are reconstructed during the stage Ⅱ surgery, and standard anti-scar treatment measures are actively adopted after surgery. After reconstruction, the color, texture, and thickness of flaps were close to the normal skin in face and neck, and the appearance and function of face and neck are significantly improved, with less linear scars left. It is beneficial to improve the therapeutic effect.

Objective To study the anti-reflux effect of conical gastric stump embedding in radical resection of esophageal cancer.Methods A total of 60 patients who planned to undergo radical resection of esophageal cancer in our hospital from June 2020 to June 2022 were selected as the study objects,and the patients were divided into the observation group and the control group by random number table method,with 30 cases in each group.Patients in both groups underwent laparoscopic radical resection of esophageal cancer and esophagogastric end-to-side mechanical anastomosis.The observation group adopted the conical gastric stump embedding technique after esophagogastric end-to-side mechanical anastomosis.The perioperative related indexes,postoperative complications and gastroesophageal reflux of patients in the two groups were compared.The postoperative anti-reflux effect was evaluated by reflux disease questionnaire(RDQ)score and 24-hour intraesophageal pH monitoring.Results The operation time and digestive tract reconstruction time of patients in the observation group were longer than those in the control group(P<0.05),while there was no statistically significant difference in the amount of intraoperative bleeding,the number of lymph node dissection,the first exhaust time,or the postoperative hospital stay of patients between the two groups(P>0.05).There was no statistically significant difference in the overall incidence of postoperative complications between the two groups(P>0.05).The severity of postoperative gastroesophageal reflux of patients in the observation group was lighter than that in the control group,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).The RDQ score,24-hour reflux frequency,>5 minutes reflux frequency,pH<4 time,and longest reflux time of patients in the observation group was significantly lower/less/shorter than those in the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion The conical gastric stump embedding technique is safe and feasible in the radical resection of esophageal cancer.Although the operation time and digestive tract reconstruction time are slightly prolonged,it does not increase the perioperative risks,which can significantly reduce the occurrence and severity of postoperative gastroesophageal reflux of patients,and achieve a good anti-reflux effect.

Aim To explore the ameliorative effects of berberine(BBR)on diabetic nephropathy(DN)in mice and investigate its potential mechanisms through transcriptomic analysis.Methods 8-week-old db/db mice were randomly assigned into four groups:model group(DN group),BBR 50 mg·kg-1 group(BBR-L group),BBR 100 mg·kg-1 group(BBR-H group),and empagliflozin 10 mg·kg-1 group(EMPA group).Age-matched db/m mice were used as the control group(NC group),with eight mice in each group.Each group received intragastric administration once daily for eight weeks.After the treatment,serum,u-rine,and kidney samples were collected to evaluate re-nal function indicators and observe renal pathological changes.Differentially expressed genes(DEGs)in kidney tissue were identified through transcriptomic a-nalysis,followed by KEGG and GO enrichment analy-sis.Potential targets were further validated using mo-lecular docking,molecular dynamics simulations,West-ern blot,and immunohistochemistry.Results Both BBR and EMPA significantly reduced fasting blood glu-cose levels in DN mice,improved renal function,and alleviated renal injury and fibrosis.Compared to the NC group,855 DEGs were identified in the DN group,while 194 DEGs were identified in the BBR-H group compared to the DN group.KEGG enrichment analysis indicated that the mechanisms underlying BBR's effects on DN were primarily related to type 1 diabetes and bile secretion pathways.Molecular docking results demonstrated a strong binding affinity between BBR and FXR and a moderate binding affinity with SHP.Molecular dynamics simulations corroborated the doc-king results.FXR and SHP protein expression signifi-cantly decreased in the DN group compared to the NC group.At the same time,BBR treatment significantly increased the expression of these proteins compared to the DN group.Conclusion BBR may mitigate DN-in-duced renal injury by modulating bile acid and lipid homeostasis through the FXR-SHP pathway.

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.
