Oral vaccines, owing to their non-invasive nature, ease of administration, and ability to elicit both mucosal and systemic immune responses, represent a pivotal direction in vaccine development. Microfold cells （M cells）, a specialized subset of immune-surveillance epithelial cells, though sparsely distributed, possess exceptional capacity for antigen uptake and transcytosis, rendering them a critical target for overcoming the bottlenecks of oral vaccine delivery. The morphological structure, antigen uptake mechanisms, and surface receptor characteristics of intestinal M cells were summarized in this paper. The multifaceted challenges currently impeding M cell-targeted oral delivery and recent advances in targeting strategies based on receptor–ligand specific recognition were analyzed. The design and application of delivery carriers tailored for M cell targeting were reviewed, which aimed to provide insights and guidance for future research and development of M cell-targeted mucosal delivery systems in the intestine.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the efficacy and safety of Xiaoji Hufei Formula in protecting children with close contact exposure to influenza， and to provide reference and evidence-based support for better clinical prevention and treatment of influenza in children. MethodsA multicenter， prospective， non-randomized， parallel， controlled trial was conducted from October 2021 to May 2022 in five hospitals， including Dongfang Hospital of Beijing University of Chinese Medicine. Confirmed influenza cases and influenza-like illness （ILI） cases were collected， and eligible children with close contact exposure to these cases were recruited in the outpatient clinics. According to whether the enrolled close contacts were willing to take Xiaoji Hufei formula for influenza prevention， they were assigned to the observation group （108 cases） or the control group （108 cases）. Follow-up visits were conducted on days 7 and 14 after enrollment. The primary outcomes were the incidence of ILI and the rate of laboratory-confirmed influenza. Secondary outcomes included traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） symptom score scale for influenza， influenza-related emergency （outpatient） visit rate， influenza hospitalization rate， and time to onset after exposure to influenza cases. ResultsA total of 216 participants were enrolled， with 108 in the observation group and 108 in the control group. Primary outcomes： （1） Incidence of ILI： The incidence was 12.0% （13/108） in the observation group and 23.1% （25/108） in the control group， with the observation group showing a significantly lower incidence （χ²=4.6， P<0.05）. （2） Influenza confirmation rate： 3.7% （4/108） in the observation group and 4.6% （5/108） in the control group， with no statistically significant difference. Secondary outcomes： （1） TCM symptom score scale： after onset， nasal congestion and runny nose scores differed significantly between the two groups （P<0.05）， while other symptoms such as fever， sore throat， and cough showed no significant differences. （2） Influenza-related emergency （outpatient） visit rate： 84.6% （11 cases） in the observation group and 96.0% （24 cases） in the control group， with no significant difference. （3） Time to onset after exposure： The median onset time after exposure to index patients was 7 days in the observation group and 4 days in the control group， with a statistically significant difference （P<0.05）. ConclusionIn previously healthy children exposed to infectious influenza cases under unprotected conditions， Xiaoji Hufei formula prophylaxis significantly reduced the incidence of ILI. Xiaoji Hufei Formula can be recommended as a specific preventive prescription for influenza in children.

OBJECTIVE: To observe the therapeutic effect of electroacupuncture (EA) in improving early enteral nutrition tolerance in patients with acute pancreatitis (AP) under the concept of accelerated rehabilitation, and to explore the related mechanism based on the changes in autonomic nerve characteristics. METHODS: A total of 42 patients with AP were randomized into an observation group (21 cases, 1 case dropped out) and a control group (21 cases, 1 case dropped out). The control group received standard basic treatment for AP. On the basis of the treatment in the control group, EA was applied in the observation group, bilateral Zusanli (ST36), Yixian point (Extra), Tianshu (ST25), Neiguan (PC6) and Zhongwan (CV12) were selected as the main points, and the supplementary points were selected according to syndrome differentiation. Ipsilateral Zusanli (ST36) and Yixian point (Extra) were connected to EA, using discontinuous wave, in frequency of 2 Hz, 30 min a time, once a day for 6 continuous days. The enteral nutrition tolerance score was observed before treatment and after 3 and 5 days of treatment; the visual analogue scale (VAS) score for abdominal pain was observed before treatment and after 3 days of treatment; the time of reaching the feeding goal and hospital stay was recorded; the levels of C-reactive protein (CRP) and amylase were measured before treatment and after 5 days of treatment; the heart rate variability (HRV) indexes (standard deviation of NN intervals [SDNN], average standard deviation of NN intervals [SDANN], root mean square of successive NN interval differences [rMSSD], low frequency [LF] and high frequency [HF], ratio of low frequency to high frequency [LF/HF]) were monitored in the two groups. RESULTS: After 3 and 5 days of treatment, the enteral nutrition tolerance scores were decreased compared with those before treatment in both groups (P<0.01), the reductions in the observation group were larger than those in the control group (P<0.01). After 3 days of treatment, the VAS scores for abdominal pain were decreased compared with those before treatment in both groups (P<0.01), the reduction in the observation group was larger than that in the control group (P<0.01). The time of reaching the feeding goal and hospital stay in the observation group was shorter than that in the control group (P<0.05). After 5 days of treatment, the CRP and amylase levels were decreased compared with those before treatment in both groups (P<0.01), the reduction of CRP level in the observation group was larger than that in the control group (P<0.01). In the observation group, SDNN, SDANN and LF/HF were lower than those in the control group (P<0.05, P<0.01), while rMSSD was higher than that in the control group (P<0.01). SDNN, SDANN and LF/HF were positively correlated with the enteral nutrition tolerance scores after 3 and 5 days of treatment (P<0.05), while rMSSD was negatively correlated with the enteral nutrition tolerance scores after 3 and 5 days of treatment (P<0.01). CONCLUSION Electroacupuncture can improve enteral nutrition tolerance in patients with AP by regulating autonomic nervous function, alleviating the inflammation, promoting accelerated recovery, and reducing the length of hospital stay.

Objective:To observe the morphological and hemodynamics changes of aortic segments in mice with angiotensinogen Ⅱ(Ang II) combined with β-aminopropionitrile(BAPN) induced-aortic dissection by color Doppler ultrasound(CDUS).Methods:Twenty male mice of 6-8 weeks old C57BL/6 were randomly divided into two groups: the model group( n=10) was induced by intraperitoneal injection of Ang Ⅱ combined with BAPN to establish mice model with aortic dissection; the control group( n=10) was intraperitoneally injected with normal saline.The body weight, systolic and diastolic blood pressure of the mice were routinely recorded. On the 42th day, CDUS was used to measure the indexes of ascending aorta(AoA), descending thoracic aorta(DAo) and suprarenal aorta(SAo) in both groups, including the inner diameter of the cross section, peak systolic velocity(PSV), the end diastolic velocity(EDV), the resistance index(RI), the pulsatility index(PI), time average mean velocity(TAMV), the heart rate(HR) and the maximal shear rate(SR). Then, the aortas were harvested from the root to the bifurcation of the renal artery. The pathological changes of the aortic wall were observed using hematoxylin-eosin(HE) staining. Results:①There were statistically significant differences in body weight, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure and heart rate between the model group and the control group(all P<0.05). Compared with the control group(0/10), the incidence of the AoA dissection(8/10) in the model group was obviously higher, the difference was statistically significant( P<0.05); while the incidence of the DAo dissection(4/10) and the SAo dissection(3/10) in the model group was slightly higher, the differences were not statistically significant (all P>0.05). ②Compared with the ascending aorta of the control group, the inner diameter, PSV, EDV, TAMV, PI and SR in the model group were significantly higher(all P<0.05), while RI showed no significant difference between the two groups ( P>0.05). For the descending thoracic aorta, PSV, EDV, TAMV, PI and SR in model group were higher than those of the control group(all P<0.05), however the inner diameter and RI were not significantly different between the two groups (all P>0.05). And for the superior renal aorta, PSV, TAMV, RI, PI and SR in the model group were obviously higher than the control group(all P<0.05), whereas the inner diameter and EDV were not significantly different between the two groups (all P>0.05). ③The HE of the tissue section in the model group showed, the aortas were obviously dilated, irregular, with inhomogeneously thickening wall; the endothelial cell nuclei were slightly stained, and some intima and middle layer ruptured and protruded outward to form dissecting aneurysms. The adventitias were markedly infiltrated with inflammatory cells. Conclusions:Ultrasonography could primarily evaluate the hemodynamic changes of aorta in hypertension with aortic dissection, and the PSV, TAMV, PI and SR of aorta may be important indicators for early predicting the occurrence of aortic dissection in hypertension.

The anti-infection treatment plan was evaluated and adjusted according to the bacterial culture and drug sensitivity results of the abdominal dialysis fluid. The adverse reactions of pancytopenia induced by vancomycin were documented. Results Infection in the patient on peritoneal dialysis was effectively controlled. The related indicators of pancytopenia were improved. Conclusion A case of pancytopenia induced by vancomycin in the patient on peritoneal dialysis was analyzed to get clinical staff's attention to this adverse reaction and improve the safety of vancomycin administration.

Objective:To discuss the effect and prognostic factors of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) in patients with T-lymphoblastic lymphoma (T-LBL) who have achieved complete remission (CR) and partial response (PR) after pediatric-like acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) therapy.Methods:Basic information and clinical data of patients with T-LBL treated in the hematologic center of Tangdu Hospital from January 2013 to January 2017 were collected, and the patients who achieved CR/PR were included in this study and retrospectively analyzed.Results:①A total of 48 patients received pediatric-like ALL chemotherapy, among which 39 patients achieved CR and 9 patients achieved PR after 2 courses of induction chemotherapy. Auto-HSCT was performed in 14 cases and allo-HSCT in 7 cases, and the hematopoietic function of all 21 patients was successfully reconstructed after transplantation. ②The follow-up period was 9-61 months, with a median of 31 months. The 3-year overall survival (OS) rate was 61.0% (95% CI 53.7%-68.3%) , and the 3-year progression-free survival (PFS) rate was 54.8% (95% CI 47.1%-62.2%) . ③The 3-year OS rate of transplantation group was 84.7%, and that of non-transplantation group was 42.8%. Significant difference of OS rate was observed between the 2 groups ( P=0.006) . The 3-year PFS rate was 75.4% in transplantation group and 38.9% in non-transplantation group. Significant difference of the PFS rate between the two groups was observed ( P=0.004) . ④No difference of OS rate between auto-HSCT and allo-HSCT groups was observed ( P=0.320) , same as the PFS rate ( P=0.597) . ⑤Among the prognostic factors, bone marrow invasion and no HSCT are independent risk factors affecting the long-term prognosis of patients. The mortality rate of patients with bone marrow invasion is about 5.804 times higher than that of patients without bone marrow invasion, and the mortality rate of patients with HSCT is about 5.871 times higher than that of patients without HSCT. Conclusion:T-LBL received pediatric-like ALL chemotherapy and HSCT has definite curative effect with lower transplant-related mortality and more safety. In the transplantation group, there is no significant difference of OS and PFS rates between patients receiving auto-HSCT and patients receiving allo-HSCT. Moreover, bone marrow invasion and no HSCT are both independent risk factors for long-term prognosis of patients.

Objective To evaluate the effectiveness offour in onenutrition management mode in the treatment of type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) in children. Methods Ninety children diagnosed with T1DM in Tianjin Children's Hospital were selected during March 2011 to June 2013. Segmented balanced random method was used to generate a random number timer, and the children were divided into intervention group and control group (n=45) by random letters. The patients in the intervention group were treated withFour in one nutrition management. Those in the control group were treated with traditional nutrition education method. Observation period was one year. The change of food choices of the parents was assessed before and after the intervention. Nutritional treatment compliance of children,fasting plasma glucose (FPG),2 hours postpransial glucose (2 hPG),and hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) levels and complications, and so on were also evaluated. Results One year after intervention, the percentages of parents who chose low glycemic index food (41/45), vegetables and fruits consumed every day (40/45), often ate soy products(41/45), did not drunk carbonated drinks (43/45) of treatment group were significantly higher than those of control group (24/45, 20/45, 19/45, 26/45, P all<0.001);diet treatment compliance of children in treatment group was significantly better than that of the control group (P=0.000 2);FPG, 2 hPG, HbA1c of two groups of children decreased significantly than before. FPG[(8.11 ± 2.82) mmol/L], 2 hPG [(12.82 ± 1.05) mmol/L], HbA1c [(6.10±0.93)%] of treatment group were significantly lower than those of the control group [(11.71± 2.75) mmol/L, (13.77±1.49) mmol/L, (9.02±0.93)%;t=6.13, 1.66, 14.89;P<0.001 for all comparisons]. After treatment, 14 cases of treatment group had acute ketoacidosis and hypoglycemia , while 39 cases of control group had these complications (P=0.000 00). Readmission occurred in 11 cases of treatment group and 33 of the control group (P=0.000 00). Conclusions Four in onenutrition management mode was effective in the management of children with T1DM.

Objective To investigate the effect of hyperbaric oxygen therapy on serum procalcitonin (PCT), white blood cells(WBC) and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) levels in children with necrotising fasciitis (NF) and its efficacy, and explore the diagnosis value of above indicators.Methods From March 2011 to June 2014,50 cases children with acute necrotic fasciitis treated in Children's Hospital of Hebei Province as study group,which were randomly divided into hyperbaric oxygen group (n =25) and routine group (n =25) .The routine group received the routine therapy of incision and drainage to clear the lesion, hyperbaric oxygen group received hyperbaric oxygen therapy on the basis of routine group,while 50 healthy children were selected as control group.The serum PCT, WBC, hs-CRP levels, efficacy, complications, death and hospitalization time were observed and compared.Results The serum PCT, WBC and hs-CRP levels pre-treatment in study group were higher than those in control group(P<0.05).The area under the ROC curve of PCT and hs-CRP was 1.000,respectively, and WBC was 0.804, there were significant difference between PCT and WBC (Z=5.250,P=0.000), between hs-CRP and WBC (Z=5.037,P=0.000).After treatment, the wounds of 23 case patients (92.00%) were cured in hyperbaric oxygen group, and 21 cases in routine group (84.00%) , there were no significant difference in cure rate between two groups.There were six cases(24.00%) of complications and one case (4.00%) of death in hyperbaric oxygen group,while nine cases (36.00%) of complications and two cases (8.00%) of death, there were no significant difference in complications rate and death rate between two groups.The hospitalization time in hyperbaric oxygen group was (39.17 ±6.73) d, which was significantly lower than (52.13 ±4.28) d in routine group(P<0.05).Conclusion PCT and hs-CRP have certain value in diagnosis of children with acute necrotizing fasciitis; incision and drainage combined with hyperbaric oxygen therapy has a better clinical effect in the treatment of children with acute necrotizing fasciitis.
