Based on the view that wind pathogen runs through the entire course of the occurrence and development of nephrotic syndrome， it is proposed that the core pathogenesis of refractory nephrotic syndrome （RNS） in children involves imbalance of the lung， spleen， and kidney， invasion of wind pathogen， and stagnation of turbidity and stasis， and that directing the turbid downward with wind medicinals is the key therapeutic strategy. In clinical practice， according to the distinct pathogenic characteristics of three patterns， including defensive qi insecurity of the lung， yang deficiency with loss of regulation， and binding of turbidity and stasis， three corresponding methods are applied， which are diffusing the lung to consolidate defensive qi， elevating yang to supplement the spleen and kidney， and activating blood to unblock turbidity and stasis. For the pattern of defensive qi insecurity of the lung， wind medicinals are used to penetrate and disperse external pathogens， such as fangfeng （Radix Saposhnikoviae） and mahuang （Herba Ephedrae） for diffusing the lung， dispersing wind， and consolidating defensive qi. For yang deficiency with loss of regulation pattern， wind medicinals are employed to elevate yang and assist transformation， such as shengma （Rhizoma Cimicifugae） and gegen （Radix Puerariae Lobatae） for raising clear yang， warming and activating the spleen and kidney. For binding of turbidity and stasis pattern， wind medicinals with scurrying and collateral‑unblocking properties are used， such as jixueteng （Caulis Spatholobi）， luoshiteng （Caulis Trachelospermi）， and chuanshanlong （Rhizoma Dioscoreae Nipponicae） for dispelling wind， activating blood， resolving stasis， and directing turbidity downward. In all these methods， the core principle is to use wind medicinals to regulate qi movement， open and unblock the sweat pores， and separately eliminate turbid pathogens， thereby providing a theoretical and practical basis for the traditional Chinese medicine diagnosis and treatment of RNS in children.

ObjectiveTo summarize the incidence and clinical features of drug hypersensitivity reactions in children treated with sustained-releasing gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonists （GnRHa）， aiming to provide guidance for the safe clinical application of GnRHa in children. MethodsThe medical data of children diagnosed with central precocious puberty （CPP） or early and fast puberty （EFP） were retrospectively analyzed， who received GnRHa treatment at the Children's Growth Center of the First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University between January 1990 and July 2023. The occurrence of GnRHa-related drug hypersensitivity reactions were summarized， including the incidence and clinical features of systemic reactions and sterile abscesses. ResultsAmong the 1 684 children treated with GnRHa for CPP/EFP， the female-to-male ratio was 3.8∶1. A total of nine children （0.53%） developed 44 occurrences of drug hypersensitivity reactions. Four children （0.24%） presented with sterile abscesses （21 occurrences）， and five children （0.30%） experienced systemic hypersensitivity reactions （14 occurrences）. Four children were hypersensitive to triptorelin acetate， three were hypersensitive to leuprorelin acetate， and two were hypersensitive to both triptorelin acetate and leuprorelin acetate. The predominant hypersensitivity reactions to leuprorelin acetate were sterile abscesses， observed in four cases （4/277， 1.44%）， whereas the main reactions to triptorelin acetate were systemic hypersensitivity reactions， affecting five cases （5/1 501， 0.33%）. Case one presented with a severe and complex condition， exhibiting hypersensitivity to multiple GnRHa preparations （sustained-releasing triptorelin， sustained-releasing leuprorelin， and short-acting triptorelin）， and presenting with diverse manifestations， including induration， sterile abscesses， systemic hypersensitivity reactions， and even loss of suppression of the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis， leading to treatment failure. ConclusionsThe proportion of children experiencing drug hypersensitivity reactions to sustained-releasing GnRHa is relatively low at 0.53%， with diverse manifestations. The reactions primarily manifest as sterile abscesses and systemic hypersensitivity reactions， and in severe cases， may lead to treatment failure due to loss of suppression of the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis.

OBJECTIVE To analyze the influencing factors of voriconazole trough concentration and adverse drug reactions （ADR） in renal transplant recipients. METHODS Data from inpatients who received voriconazole and therapeutic drug monitoring in our hospital between January 2022 and August 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. Patients were divided into renal transplant group and non-renal transplant group based on transplantation status. A 1∶1 propensity score matching （PSM） method was used to balance differences in baselines between the two groups. Voriconazole trough concentrations， target attainment rate， clinical efficacy， and ADR were compared between the two groups. Multiple linear regression （backward） was used to analyze the factors influencing voriconazole trough concentrations in the renal transplant group. Univariate analysis and binary Logistic regression were used to identify independent risk factors for ADR in the renal transplant group. RESULTS After PSM， 48 patients were included in each group. There were no statistically significant differences in the mean voriconazole trough concentration， target attainment rate or efficacy rate between the two groups （P＞0.05）. The total incidence of ADR was significantly higher in the renal transplant group than in the non-renal transplant group （P＜0.05）. Multiple linear regression analysis showed that age， average daily dose， pulmonary infection， total bilirubin during medication， day-1 loading dose， use of the original drug， concomitant immunosuppressant use， and the occurrence of ADR were factors influencing voriconazole trough concentration in renal transplant patients （P＜0.05）. Binary Logistic regression analysis showed that abnormal direct bilirubin during medication [OR＝7.747， 95%CI （1.334， 45.005）， P＝0.023] was an independent risk factor for ADR in renal transplant patients receiving voriconazole. CONCLUSIONS Age， average daily dose， pulmonary infection， use of the original drug， day-1 loading dose， total bilirubin during medication， concomitant immunosuppressant use， and the occurrence of ADR are the factors influencing voriconazole trough concentration in renal transplant patients. Furthermore， patients with abnormal direct bilirubin during medication are more susceptible to ADR.

Objective: To investigate the efficacy of implantable neuromuscular electrical stimulation system on stress urinary incontinence (SUI) model in female rats. Methods: A total of 21 female infertile SD rats were randomly divided into the control，sham stimulation，and stimulation groups，with 7 rats in each group.All rats received vaginal dilation (VD) to simulate postpartum SUI.One week after VD，the control group was given normal feeding，stimulators were implanted in the pelvic floor muscles of the sham stimulation and stimulation groups.The sham stimulation group received normal feeding for 2 weeks，and the stimulation group received pelvic floor electrical stimulation (PFES) for 2 consecutive weeks.The leak point pressure (LPP) of each rat was measured with cystometry before VD (baseline value)，1 week after VD，and 2 weeks after PFES. Results: In the control group and sham stimulation group，LPP increased after 2 weeks of treatment compared with that after 1 week of VD，but it still did not return to the baseline level (P<0.001).In the stimulation group，after 2 consecutive weeks of PFES，LPP increased significantly compared with that 1 week after VD，and returned to the baseline value (P>0.05).There was no significant difference in the LPP baseline values and levels after 1 week of VD among the 3 groups (P>0.05).The LPP in the stimulation group after 2 weeks of PFES was significantly higher than that in the sham stimulation group and stimulation group (P<0.001). Conclusion: The implantable neuromuscular electrical stimulation system is effective in short-term intervention of SUI in female rats，the further studies are needed to confirm the long-term efficacy and safety of the system，the optimal stimulation sites，optimal stimulation parameters，and potential mechanisms of action.

Objective: To evaluates the association between maternal overweight/obesity during pregnancy and offspring risk of metabolic dysfunction associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), providing theoretical evidence for early life MASLD prevention. Methods: An online search was conducted across ten databases (CNKI, Wanfang, SinoMed, PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, PROSPERO, PQDT Global, ScienceDirect) for research literature on the association between maternal overweight/obesity during pregnancy and the development of MASLD in offspring, with the search period spanning from January 2014 to December 2024. Two researchers independently screened literature, extracted data, and assessed study quality. Statistical analysis was performed using R 4.3.3. Results: Ten studies involving 10 229 participants were included, comprising 4 cohort studies and 6 case control studies. Cohort studies showed that maternal overweight and obesity significantly increased offspring MASLD risk ( RR=1.59, 95%CI=1.06-2.39, P <0.05), with moderate heterogeneity ( I 2=56.9%, P =0.07). Case control studies indicated a positive association between maternal overweight/obesity during pregnancy and offspring risk of MASLD( OR=2.00, 95%CI=1.68-2.39, P < 0.05), with low heterogeneity ( I 2=48.8%, P =0.08). Conclusions Maternal overweight/obesity during pregnancy positively correlates with offspring MASLD risk. Gestational weight management may reduce the risk.

BACKGROUND:With the increasing attention of scholars at home and abroad to children's cervical spine-related diseases,the demand for exploring the anatomical indicators and changes of cervical spine morphology and development in children of different ages is increasing.OBJECTIVE:To explore and analyze the morphological changes of children with different ages and vertebral sequences by measuring the anatomical position indexes of C2-C7 neurocentral synchondrosis in children aged 1-6 years.METHODS:Normal cervical spine CT images were retrospectively collected from 160 children aged 1-6 years at provincial tertiary hospitals.They were divided into six groups according to an age group of 1 year.The raw data of consecutively scanned cervical spine tomography images were imported into Mimics 16.0 software.The positional anatomical indexes of cervical spine segments C2-C7 in coronal and transverse planes were measured and analyzed under the two-dimensional image window by choosing the measurement tools under the toolbar of Measurements.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)The distance between the two sides of C2-C7 neurocentral synchondrosis and the distance between the left and right sides of neurocentral synchondrosis and the transverse process gradually increased with age.The overall development of vertebrae in each cervical vertebral segment was faster than the ossification of the neurocentral synchondrosis.(2)The cross-sectional angles on both sides of C2-C7 neurocentral synchondrosis gradually increased with age,and the angles between the left and right sides of neurocentral synchondrosis and the anterior and posterior edges of the vertebral body gradually decreased.Both sides of the neurocentral synchondrosis in cervical vertebral segments tended to grow toward the arch site,which mainly promoted the growth and development of the arch.(3)Except for C7,the angle between the coronal planes on both sides of the cervical spine changed little with the descending neurocentral synchondrosis of the cervical spine,and the neurocentral synchondrosis of the cervical spine was more inclined to longitudinal growth and ossification.(4)The neurocentral synchondrosis position changes in C7 were significantly different from those in the rest of the cervical vertebrae.(5)The anatomical indexes of C2-C7 neurocentral synchondrosis position in children have obvious development rules among different ages and vertebral bodies,and these rules are helpful for the clinical diagnosis and treatment of cervical spine diseases in children.

Objective This study conducted a dynamic network analysis of the symptoms in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC)at different postoperative time points,aiming to explore evolving core symptoms and provide a basis for developing precise clinical symptom management programs.Methods A longitudinal study was carried out involving 370 HCC patients who underwent surgical treatment at a hospital in Kunming city between February and December 2024.Questionnaires were administered on postoperative day 2(T1)and day 7(T2),using the Chinese version of the Memory Symptom Assessment Scale.Symptom networks of 18 symptoms were constructed for both time points using R software to explore core symptoms and their interconnections.A network comparison test was also performed to assess differences between the 2 time points.Results All 370 patients completed the questionnaire at T1,and 357 valid responses were collected at T2,yielding a response rate of 96.49％.At T1,"feeling nervous"had the highest centrality(rs=1.29),while at T2,"feeling sad"was most central(rs=1.11).Overall strength of the symptom networks showed that notable changes were observed in the edge weights between symptoms(P=0.01).Conclusion While the overall structure of early postoperative symptoms in HCC patients remained relatively stable over time,the core symptoms shifted."Feeling nervous"emerged as the central symptom at T1,whereas"feeling sad"became predominant.Digestive-related symptoms are progressively more closely linked over time.Healthcare professionals should dynamically assess patients' early postoperative psychological symptoms and digestive system related symptoms,and focus on intervening with symptoms of tension and sadness.

Objective:To analyze the clinical characteristics and gene mutations of 4 patients with the male phenotype of 17α-hydroxylase /17, 20-lyase deficiency(17-OHD), in order to improve the recognition and appropriate management of atypical cases.Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed on the clinical features, biochemical findings, and gene mutations of 4 patients with the male phenotype of 17-OHD treated in our hospital between 2018 and 2023.Results:The social gender of all 4 patients with 17-OHD was male. None of the 4 patients had hypertension or hypokalemia, but all had micropenis and gynecomastia. Two patients had adrenal hyperplasia, while adrenal morphology was normal in the other two. One patient had decreased bone mass. There were typical changes in the steroid synthesis-related hormone spectrum: progesterone was significantly elevated in all 4 patients, 17-hydroxyprogesterone was not markedly abnormal, cortisol, dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate(DHEAS) and estradiol levels were low, and testosterone levels were also low.Conclusion:17-OHD is a rare type of congenital adrenal hyperplasia, with the male phenotype being even rarer. Early symptoms are often atypical, resulting in high rates of misdiagnosis and missed diagnosis. Patients without hypertension and hypokalemia are particularly prone to diagnostic confusion. Male patients with unexplained progesterone elevation, poor secondary sexual development, and gynecomastia should undergo timely steroid hormone profiling and genetic testing to avoid misdiagnosis and missed diagnosis.

The MGF300-4L protein of African swine fever virus(ASFV),a virulence-associated fac-tor,degrades IKKβ through the chaperone-mediated autophagy and enhances the stability of IKBαto suppress the generation of IL-1β and TNF-α regulated by the NF-κB signaling pathway.To iden-tify the host proteins interacting with MGF300-4L,PK-15 cells were transfected with the eukary-otic plasmid expressing MGF300-4L and analyzed using immunoprecipitation-mass spectrometry(IP-MS)to identify the host proteins that interact with MGF300-4L.Additionally,gene ontology(GO)and KEGG pathway enrichment analyses were conducted.Furthermore,molecular docking a-nalysis,co-immunoprecipitation,and laser confocal microscopy assays were performed to validate the host proteins interacting with MGF300-4L.The IP-MS analysis identified 145 host proteins that potentially interact with MGF300-4L.Subsequent GO and KEGG pathway enrichment analy-ses revealed that these proteins are predominantly involved in metabolic,cellular,and innate immune responses.Through molecular docking prediction,co-immunoprecipitation assay,and laser confocal microscopy,we identified the interaction between MGF300-4L and STAT1.This study provides critical insights into the mechanisms underlying the interactions between MGF300-4L and the host proteins.
