As a rare Chinese medicinal material, Paridis Rhizoma is mainly distributed in Yunnan, Guangxi, and Guizhou in southwestern China, with the effect of clearing heat and detoxifying, alleviating edema and relieving pain, cooling liver and tranquilizing mind. It is particularly effective for injuries from falls, fractures, contusions and strains, snake bites, cold wind-induced convulsion, and other diseases, which has been used for more than 2 000 years. According to modern research, polyphyllin Ⅱ, one of the main active components of Paridis Rhizoma, belongs to diosgenin in structure. It has the anti-tumor, anti-inflammatory, antiviral, antibacterial, immune-regulating, antioxidant, and multidrug resistance-reversing activities, showing good application prospect. Especially, the anti-tumor effect of polyphyllin Ⅱ has attracted wide attention, and the mechanism is inhibiting proliferation, migration, and invasion of tumor cells, inducing cell cycle arrest, apoptosis, and autophagy, suppressing angiogenesis, and modulating tumor microenvironment. However, the pharmacokinetic results show that polyphyllin Ⅱ has low bioavailability in vivo due to the low solubility, poor absorption, unsatisfactory distribution, and slow metabolism, which limit the clinical application. In recent years, there has been an explosion of research on the adverse reactions of polyphyllin Ⅱ, such as the strong hemolytic activity and obvious cytotoxicity to liver, kidney, myocardium and cardiovascular cells. Thus, papers were retrieved from "CNKI", "VIP", "Wanfang Data", "PubMed", "Web of Science", and "Elsevier SD" with "Paris saponin Ⅱ", "Polyphyllin Ⅱ" as the main keywords, and the pharmacological activities and mechanisms, pharmacokinetics, and adverse reactions were summarized. The findings are expected to serve as a reference for the in-depth research, development, and utilization of polyphyllin Ⅱ.

During coronavirus disease 2019 epidemic, the treatment of severe trauma has been impacted. The Consensus on emergency surgery and infection prevention and control for severe trauma patients with 2019 novel corona virus pneumonia was published online on February 12, 2020, providing a strong guidance for the emergency treatment of severe trauma and the self-protection of medical staffs in the early stage of the epidemic. With the Joint Prevention and Control Mechanism of the State Council renaming "novel coronavirus pneumonia" to "novel coronavirus infection" and the infection being managed with measures against class B infectious diseases since January 8, 2023, the consensus published in 2020 is no longer applicable to the emergency treatment of severe trauma in the new stage of epidemic prevention and control. In this context, led by the Chinese Traumatology Association, Chinese Trauma Surgeon Association, Trauma Medicine Branch of Chinese International Exchange and Promotive Association for Medical and Health Care, and Editorial Board of Chinese Journal of Traumatology, the Chinese expert consensus on emergency surgery for severe trauma and infection prevention during coronavirus disease 2019 epidemic ( version 2023) is formulated to ensure the effectiveness and safety in the treatment of severe trauma in the new stage. Based on the policy of the Joint Prevention and Control Mechanism of the State Council and by using evidence-based medical evidence as well as Delphi expert consultation and voting, 16 recommendations are put forward from the four aspects of the related definitions, infection prevention, preoperative assessment and preparation, emergency operation and postoperative management, hoping to provide a reference for severe trauma care in the new stage of the epidemic prevention and control.

Objective:To identify the risk factors for postoperative septic cardiomyopathy (SCM) in septic patients.Methods:The perioperative medical records of septic patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) of Second Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University, First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University and Suzhou Municipal Hospital after surgery from January 2017 to November 2020 were retrospectively collected.The patients were divided into SCM group and non-SCM group (NSCM group) according to whether or not SCM developed within 48 h after operation.Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to identify the risk factors for SCM.Results:A total of 269 patients were included in this study, including 49 patients in SCM group and 220 patients in NSCM groups.Compared with group NSCM, the rate of laparoscopic surgery, the Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) at the time of entering ICU, the serum concentration of lactate at the time of entering ICU, the highest serum concentration of lactate, the highest serum concentration of procalcitonin, the maximum consumption of norepinephrine and the highest body temperature were increased, and the minimum platelet count was decreased in group SCM ( P<0.1). The results of logistic regression analysis showed that SOFA score at the time of entering ICU and laparoscopic surgery were the risk factors for the development of postoperative SCM in septic patients ( P<0.05). The risk for SCM was increased by 34.273 times when the SOFA score at the time of entering ICU was ≥7 ( P<0.05). Conclusion:Laparoscopic surgery and SOFA score ≥7 at the time of entering ICU are the risk factors for the development of postoperative SCM in septic patients.

Objective To investigate the relationship between uridine diphosphate glucuronosyltransferases (UGT) 1A6 rs2070959 polymorphism and serum concentration of valproic acid (VPA) in patients with epilepsy.Methods We selected 200 cases of epilepsy patients treated in our hospital from June 2014-January 2017.All the patients were treated with VPA monotherapy > 3months.When the VPA of patients reached steady state,we detected the VPA blood level.The genotypes and allele frequencies of UGT1A6 rs2070959 in 200 epilepsy patients were determined.The average standard deviation of 1-fold VPA was used as high VPA group and vice versa as low VPA group.The genotype and allele frequencies of UGT1A6 rs2070959 were compared between the two groups,and the influencing factors of VPA concentration in epileptic patients were analyzed.Results The frequencies of A genotype,AG genotype and GG genotype were 77.01%,18.39% and 4.60% in the high VPA group,67.26%,19.47% and 13.27% in the low VPA group,with no significant difference between the two groups (P > 0.05);the allele G frequency in the high VPA group was significantly lower than that in the low VPA group (13.79%).The age and weight of the high VPA group were significantly higher than those of the low VPA group (P < 0.05),and the gender composition of the high VPA group was not significantly different from that of the low VPA group (P >0.05).Logistic regression analysis showed that age and weight gain were positively correlated with VPA concentration (P < 0.05),allele G expression was negatively correlated with VPA concentration (P <0.05).Conclusions Allele G expression at UGT1 A6 rs2070959 is associated with decreased VPA concentration in epileptic patients,which may require a higher dose of VPA.

In recent years , there are increasing articles concerning Epstein-Barr virus associated lymphoproliferative disorder (EBV+LPD), and the name of EBV +LPD is used widely.However,the meaning of EBV+LPD used is not the same , which triggered confusion of the understanding and obstacles of the communication.In order to solve this problem.Literature was reviewed with combination of our cases to clarify the concept of EBV +LPD and to expound our understanding about it .In general, it is currently accepted that EBV +LPD refers to a spectrum of lymphoid tissue diseases with EBV infection , including hyperplasia , borderline lesions , and neoplastic diseases .According to this concept , EBV+LPD should not include infectious mononucleosis ( IM ) and severe acute EBV infection ( EBV +hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis, fatal IM, fulminant IM, fulminant T-cell LPD), and should not include the explicitly named EBV+lymphomas ( such as extranodal NK/T cell lymphoma , aggressive NK cell leukemia , Burkitt lymphoma, and Hodgkin lymphoma , etc.) either.EBV +LPD should currently include: ( 1 ) EBV +B cell-LPD:lymphomatoid granulomatosis , EBV +immunodeficiency related LPD , chronic active EBV infection-B cell type, senile EBV +LPD, etc.(2) EBV +T/NK cell-LPD:CAEBV-T/NK cell type, hydroa vacciniforme, hypersensitivity of mosquito bite, etc.In addition, EBV+LPD is classified, based on the disease process , pathological and molecular data , as 3 grades:grade1, hyperplasia ( polymorphic lesions with polyclonal cells ); grade 2, borderline ( polymorphic lesions with clonality ); grade 3, neoplasm (monomorphic lesions with clonality).There are overlaps between EBV +LPD and typical hyperplasia, as well as EBV+LPD and typical lymphomas .However , the most important tasks are clinical vigilance , early identification of potential severe complications , and treating the patients in a timely manner to avoid serious complications , as well as the active treatment to save lives when the complications happened .

BACKGROUND:Intraarticular cocktail analgesic injection is a popular postoperative analgesia method and can effectively control postoperative pain and relieve side effects after total hip arthroplasty.
OBJECTIVE:To compare and assess the effectiveness and safety of intraarticular analgesic injection or intravenous injection of parecoxib after total hip arthroplasty.
METHODS:A total of 60 patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty were randomly assigned to:treatment group (intraarticular cocktail analgesic injection with morphine, bupivacaine, and compound betamethasone), and control group (intravenous injection of parecoxib). Al patients received tramadol hydrochloride at 24 hours after replacement. Analgesic consumption, visual analog scale at rest and during activity, range of motion, and postoperative complication of patients in each group were recorded.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Intraarticular cocktail analgesic injection significantly reduced analgesic consumption. When comparing visual analog scale scores, rest pain scores were significantly less in the treatment group at 12, 24 and 48 hours after replacement than that in the control group (P<0.05). Scores on range of motion were significantly less in the treatment group at 24 and 36 hours than that in the control group (P<0.05). No significant differences in total complications were detectable between the treatment and control groups (P>0.05). Results suggested that intraarticular cocktail analgesic injection lessened analgesic consumption after replacement, relieved early pain after replacement, and contributed to early rehabilitation of patients. Moreover, no significant adverse reactions were visible.
