Multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children(MIS-C)is a complex syndrome characterized by multi-organ involvement that has emerged in the context of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2(SARS-CoV-2)outbreak.The clinical presentation of MIS-C is similar to Kawasaki disease but predominantly presents with fever and gastrointestinal symptoms,and severe cases can involve toxic shock and cardiac dysfunction.Epidemiological findings indicate that the majority of MIS-C patients test positive for SARS-CoV-2 antibodies.The pathogenesis and pathophysiology of MIS-C remain unclear,though immune dysregulation following SARS-CoV-2 infection is considered a major contributing factor.Current treatment approaches for MIS-C primarily involve intravenous immunoglobulin therapy and symptomatic supportive care.This review article provides a comprehensive overview of the definition,epidemiology,pathogenesis,clinical presentation,diagnosis,treatment,and prognosis of MIS-C.

Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of self-formulated Shenqi Buwei Decoction(derived from Huangqi Renshen Decoction)in treating patients with stable chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD)differentiated as lung-spleen qi deficiency syndrome.Methods A total of 110 patients with stable COPD differentiated as lung-spleen qi deficiency syndrome were randomly divided into a control group and an observation group,with 55 patients in each group.The control group was given Tiotropium Bromide Inhalation Powder for the inhalation treatment,and the observation group was given Shenqi Buwei Decoction on the basis of treatment for the control group,and the course of treatment covered 3 months.The changes of pulmonary function indicators of forced expiratory volume in one second(FEV1),forced vital capacity(FVC),and one-second rate of FEV1/FVC,modified Medical Research Council index(mMRC)dyspnea scores,6-minute walk test(6MWT),COPD Assessment Test(CAT)scores,and traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)syndrome scores in the two groups were observed before and after treatment.After treatment,the clinical efficacy and safety of the two groups were evaluated.Results(1)During the trial,one patient was excluded and two patients fell off from the observation group,and three patients fell off from the control group.Eventually,52 patients in each of the two groups were included in the efficacy statistics.(2)After 3 months of treatment,the total effective rate of the observation group was 80.77%(42/52)and that of the control group was 67.31%(35/52).The intergroup comparison(tested by chi-square test)showed that the therapeutic effect of the observation group was slightly superior to that of the control group,but the difference was not statistically significant(P＞0.05).(3)In terms of indexes,After treatment,the levels of pulmonary function indicators of FEV1,FEV1/FVC in the control group and FEV1,FVC,FEV1/FVC in the observation group were significantly improved compared with those before treatment(P＜0.05),and the improvement of FEV1,FVC,FEV1/FVC in the observation group was significantly superior to that in the control group(P＜0.05).(4)After treatment,the 6MWT,mMRC and CAT scores of the two groups were significantly improved compared with those before treatment(P＜0.05),and the improvement in the observation group was significantly superior to that in the control group(P＜0.05).(5)After treatment,the TCM syndrome scores of the two groups of patients were significantly decreased in comparison with those before treatment(P＜0.05),and the decrease in the observation group was significantly superior to that in the control group(P＜0.05).(6)During the treatment process,no obvious adverse reactions occurred in the two groups of patients,there were no abnormal changes in the safety indicators,either.Conclusion On the basis of conventional western medicine treatment,the combined use of Shenqi Buwei Decoction exerts certain efficacy in the treatment of patients with stable COPD differentiated as lung-spleen qi deficiency syndrome.The combined therapy can effectively improve the ventilation function,relieve the clinical symptoms,improve the quality of life and delay the decline of lung function of the patients.

Aim To investigate the role of ferrostatin-1(Fer-1)in adriamycin(ADR)induced podocyte inju-ry.Methods Western blot and RT-qPCR were used to detect the expression of the ferroptosis signaling pathway and podocyte injury-related proteins in podo-cytes treated with ADR and Fer-1.The therapeutic effect of Fer-1 on podocytes was screened by CCK-8;malondialdehyde(MDA),glutathione(GSH)and Fe2+kit were used to evaluate the lipid peroxidation level of podocytes.A mouse model of ADR nephropa-thy was constructed in vivo,and the expression of fer-roptosis related proteins in mouse glomerular podocytes was detected by Western blot and RT-qPCR.The fer-roptosis level of kidney was evaluated by immunohisto-chemistry staining of 4-HNE.Results The expression level of ACSL4,a marker related to ferroptosis,was significantly up-regulated.GPX4 and SLC7A11 were significantly down-regulated in podocytes under ADR stimulation.Compared with the ADR group,Fer-1 in-tervention could partially restore the anomalous change of ferroptosis related protein and improve the expression level of podocellular damage protein desmin.The re-sults of MDA,GSH and Fe2+showed that Fer-1 could improve the lipid peroxidation level of podocytes.The expression level of ACSL4 was significantly up-regula-ted and GPX4 and SLC7A11 were significantly up-reg-ulated in the ADR model group.IHC staining of 4-HNE increased in ADR model group.Conclusions Adriamycin promotes podocyte injury by induced ferrop-tosis,and inhibiting ferroptosis may be a potential strat-egy to prevent the progression of ADR nephropathy.

Although it has become a consensus in the field of colorectal surgery to perform radical tumor treatment and functional protection under the minimally invasive concept, there exist many controversies during clinical practice, including the concept of embryonic development of abdominal organs and membrane anatomy, the principle of membrane anatomy related to right hemicolectomy, D3 resection, and identification of the inner boundary. In this paper, we analyzed recently reported literature with high-level evidence and clinical data from the author's hospital to recognize and review the membrane anatomy-based laparoscopic assisted right hemicolectomy for right colon cancer, emphasizing the importance of priority of surgical dissection planes, vascular orientation, and full understanding of the fascial space, and proposing that the surgical planes should be dissected in the parietal-prerenal fascial space, and the incision should be 1 cm from the descending and horizontal part of the duodenum. The surgery should be performed according to a standard procedure with strict quality control. To identify the resection range of D3 dissection, it is necessary to establish a clinical, imaging, and pathological evaluation model for multiple factors or to apply indocyanine green and nano-carbon lymphatic tracer intraoperatively to guide precise lymph node dissection. We expect more high-level evidence of evidence-based medicine to prove the inner boundary of laparoscopic assisted radical right colectomy and a more rigorous consensus to be established.

Osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture (OVCF) can lead to lower back pain and may be even accompanied by scoliosis, neurological dysfunction and other complications, which will affect the daily activities and life quality of patients. Vertebral augmentation is an effective treatment method for OVCF, but it cannot correct unbalance of bone metabolism or improve the osteoporotic status, causing complications like lower back pain, limited spinal activities and vertebral refracture. The post-operative systematic and standardized rehabilitation treatments can improve curative effect and therapeutic efficacy of anti-osteoporosis, reduce risk of vertebral refracture, increase patient compliance and improve quality of life. Since there still lack relevant clinical treatment guidelines for postoperative rehabilitation treatments following vertebral augmentation for OVCF, the current treatments are varied with uneven therapeutic effect. In order to standardize the postoperative rehabilitation treatment, the Spine Trauma Group of the Orthopedic Branch of Chinese Medical Doctor Association organized relevant experts to refer to relevant literature and develop the "Guideline for postoperative rehabilitation treatment following vertebral augmentation for osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture (2022 version)" based on the clinical guidelines published by the American Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons (AAOS) as well as on the principles of scientificity, practicality and advancement. The guideline provided evidence-based recommendations on 10 important issues related to postoperative rehabilitation treatments of OVCF.

Abstract: Objective　To analyze the survival status of HIV/AIDS patients aged above 50 years receiving antiviral therapy (ART) in Shanxi Province from 2011 to 2019, and to provide evidence for further improvement of antiviral therapy. Methods　Basic information and follow-up information of HIV/AIDS patients aged above 50 years who first received HIV/AIDS antiviral therapy in Shanxi Province from 2011 to 2019 were collected. Excel database was established and SPSS23.0 software was used for analysis. Retrospective cohort study was conducted. Cox proportional risk regression model was used to analyze the factors influencing survival time. Results　A total of 1 183 subjects were included, of which 172 died, including 84(48.84%) from other causes, 74(43.02%) AIDS-related death and 14 (8.14%) from accidents, suicides and undetermined deaths. Setting AIDS-related deaths as an outcome event, life table analysis showed that the cumulative survival rates at 1, 3, 5, 7 and 9 years after receiving ART were 96.61%, 93.59%, 90.35%, 87.57% and 83.44%, respectively. Multivariate Cox proportional risk model analysis showed that the risk of death in patients aged 60-<70 years group and over 70 age group was 2.53 times (95%CI: 1.51-4.23) and 3.59 times (95%CI: 1.74-7.40) for patients aged the 50-<60 group , respectively. The risk of death in patients with baseline CD4+T lymphocyte (CD4) counts of ≥200/mm3, 50-<200 /mm3 was 0.22 times (95%CI: 0.12-0.41) and 0.37 times (95%CI: 0.21-0.67) for patients with CD4+T lymphocyte counts of <50/mm3. The risk of death in patients with opportunistic infections at baseline was 1.99 times (95%CI: 1.16-3.39) for patients without baseline opportunistic infections. Conclusions　The survival rate of HIV/AIDS patients aged above 50 who received antiviral therapy (ART) in Shanxi Province from 2011 to 2019 was relatively high. To further improve the quality of antiviral treatment in our province, the strategy of "early detection and early treatment" should be continued and improved in the future, and information collection of specific causes of non-AIDS-related deaths among this population should be further strengthened.

BACKGROUND: Delivery room resuscitation assists preterm infants, especially extremely preterm infants (EPI) and extremely low birth weight infants (ELBWI), in breathing support, while it potentially exerts a negative impact on the lungs and outcomes of preterm infants. This study aimed to assess delivery room resuscitation and discharge outcomes of EPI and ELBWI in China. METHODS: The clinical data of EPI (gestational age [GA] <28 weeks) and ELBWI (birth weight [BW] <1000 g), admitted within 72 h of birth in 33 neonatal intensive care units from five provinces and cities in North China between 2017 and 2018, were analyzed. The primary outcomes were delivery room resuscitation and risk factors for delivery room intubation (DRI). The secondary outcomes were survival rates, incidence of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD), and risk factors for BPD. RESULTS: A cohort of 952 preterm infants were enrolled. The incidence of DRI, chest compressions, and administration of epinephrine was 55.9% (532/952), 12.5% (119/952), and 7.0% (67/952), respectively. Multivariate analysis revealed that the risk factors for DRI were GA <28 weeks (odds ratio [OR], 3.147; 95% confidence interval [CI], 2.082-4.755), BW <1000 g (OR, 2.240; 95% CI, 1.606-3.125), and antepartum infection (OR, 1.429; 95% CI, 1.044-1.956). The survival rate was 65.9% (627/952) and was dependent on GA. The rate of BPD was 29.3% (181/627). Multivariate analysis showed that the risk factors for BPD were male (OR, 1.603; 95% CI, 1.061-2.424), DRI (OR, 2.094; 95% CI, 1.328-3.303), respiratory distress syndrome exposed to ≥2 doses of pulmonary surfactants (PS; OR, 2.700; 95% CI, 1.679-4.343), and mechanical ventilation ≥7 days (OR, 4.358; 95% CI, 2.777-6.837). However, a larger BW (OR, 0.998; 95% CI, 0.996-0.999), antenatal steroid (OR, 0.577; 95% CI, 0.379-0.880), and PS use in the delivery room (OR, 0.273; 95% CI, 0.160-0.467) were preventive factors for BPD (all P < 0.05). CONCLUSION Improving delivery room resuscitation and management of respiratory complications are imperative during early management of the health of EPI and ELBWI.

Aim To explore the regulatory mechanism of berberine in the high glucose (HG) -induced podocyte ferroptosis. Methods Western blot and R T - qPCR were used to detect the changes of G P X 4, PTGS2, ACSL4, podocin, and desmin at different time (0 h, 6 h, 12 h, 24 h, 36 h) of HG stimulation, and the relative expression of Nrf2, HO-1, GPX4 and podocin under HG after treated with berberine. The proliferation of podocytes stimulated by HG at different time points was observed by EdU staining. The therapeutic effect of berberine on podocyte damage was screened by CCK-8, and the effect of berberine on the level of oxidative stress in HG-induced podocytes were measured by fluorescence inverted microscope, GSH and GSSG kits. In addition, transmission electron microscopy was employed to observe the ultrastructural characteristics of podocytes in each group. Results The expression of podocin and GPX4 was significantly reduced at 24 h, and the mRNA levels of ACSL4 and PTGS2 were significantly up-regulated. Berberine could notably increase the expression of Nrf2, HO-1, GPX4 and podocin, and reduce the levels of PTGS2 and ACSL4. Moreover, berberine significantly improved the levels of ROS and GSH in podocytes under HG conditions, thereby alleviating membrane blistering, mitochondrial shrinkage and other morphological changes of HG-induced podocytes. Conclusions In this study, the number of podocytes decreases, which is a death mode different from autophagy and apoptosis, that is, ferroptosis. Berberine can alleviate the occurrence of this phenomenon by mediating the Nrf2/ H0-1/GPX4.
