Objective To explore the diagnostic value of combined detection of Krebs Von den Lungen-6(KL-6),C-reactive protein(CRP),and some indicators in blood routine for lung injury in patients with influ-enza A virus infection.Methods A total of 92 patients with influenza A admitted to the hospital in December 2023 were selected as the observation group.Based on whether there were obvious texture changes such as patchy and ground glass opacities in the lungs on X-ray examination,the patients were divided into a lung inju-ry positive group(T1 group,30 cases)and a lung injury negative group(T2 group,62 cases).Additionally,53 healthy individuals who underwent physical examinations during the same period were selected as the control group.Peripheral blood routine,CRP,and KL-6 levels were detected.Peripheral blood routine,CRP,and KL-6 levels were compared between the observation group and control group,and between T1 group and T2 group.receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve were used to evaluate the diagnostic efficacy of individual indica-tors and combined detection for patients with lung injury who infected with influenza A.Results Compared with the control group,white blood cell count,neutrophil ratio,monocyte ratio,neutrophil/lymphoid ratio(NLR),monocyte/lymphoid ratio(MLR),platelet/lymphoid ratio(PLR),CRP and KL-6 levels in the obser-vation group were increased,while the lymphocyte ratio and platelet count decreased(P<0.05).Compared with the T2 group,the CRP and KL-6 levels increased and the incidence of anemia increased in the T1 group(P<0.05).The results of binary Logistic regression analysis showed that blood routine,KL-6,and CRP were all influencing factors of lung injury in patients with influenza A(P<0.05).The area under the curve of single detection of KL-6,CRP,blood routine,the combined detection of KL-6 and CRP,and the combined detection of KL-6,CRP and blood routine were 0.679,0.641,0.604,0.727 and 0.781.Conclusion KL-6 combined with CRP and blood routine testing has high diagnostic efficacy for lung injury in patients with influenza A and has significant clinical significance.

Objective To investigate the application effect of electromagnetic navigation bedside nasoenteral intubation technology in elderly bedridden patients.Methods A total of 92 elderly patients with tube feeding in bed in a tertiary A hospital in Beijing from June 2021 to December 2022 were selected by convenience sampling method,and they were divided into an experimental group and a control group with 46 patients in each group by random number table method.The experimental group adopted the electromagnetic navigation bedside nasoenteral catheterization technique and the control group adopted the blind catheterization method.The total success rate of catheterization,the success rate of the first catheterization,the time taken for catheterization,the proportion of catheter tip reaching jejunum,and the incidence of catheter-related complications were compared between the 2 groups.Results There were no shedding cases in both groups.The success rate of total catheterization was 95.7％in the experimental group and 80.4％in the control group.The success rate of first catheterization was 95.7％in the experimental group and 71.7％in the control group.The time taken for catheterization was(12.37±4.19)min in the experimental group and(19.22±5.48)min in the control group.The proportion of catheter tip reaching the jejunum was 60.9％in the experimental group and 28.3％in the control group.The above data were compared between the 2 groups,and the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05).In terms of the incidence of catheter-related complications,the incidence of epistaxis in the experimental group was 6.5％and it was 21.7％in the control group,and the difference was statistically significant(P=0.036).The positive rate of fecal occult blood test was 2.2％in the experimental group and 17.4％in the control group,and the difference was statistically significant(P=0.030).There was no significant difference in the incidence of nausea,vomiting and abdominal distension between the 2 groups(P＞0.05).No serious complications such as catheter ectopic placement,pneumothorax and perforation occurred in the 2 groups.Conclusion The application of electromagnetic navigation bedside nasoenteral intubation technology for elderly bedridden patients has a high success rate and takes a short time,which can improve the proportion of catheter tip reaching the jejunum and reduce the incidence of epistaxis and fecal occult blood test.

Hypothyroxinemia is a common subclinical thyroid dysfunction in pregnant women. Epidemiological studies have shown that the offspring of maternal hypothyroxinemia have a significantly increased risk of autism, but mechanisms remain unclear. Studies from clinical and animals suggest that thyroid hormone deficiency may lead to irreversible damage to brain development, which may contribute to autism. This review explores the clinical evidence of gestational hypothyroxinemia and autism in offspring and the underlying mechanisms that promote the development and progression of autism. It also emphasizes the importance of early diagnosis and treatment of thyroid disease in pregnancy for the prevention of neurodevelopmental abnormalities in offspring.

Objective: To analyze the etiology and epidemiological characteristics of gastroenteritis virus in foodborne diseases from three cities in Shandong. Methods: From January to December 2017, six sentinel hospitals in Jinan, Yantai and Linyi city of Shandong Province were selected as the research sites. Stool samples of 1 397 diarrhea patients were collected, as well as basic information and clinical symptoms. Duplex quantitative RT-PCR was used to detect Norovirus genogroupⅠ (Nov GⅠ) and genogroupⅡ (Nov GⅡ), Sapovirus (SAV) and Human astrovirus (HAstV), respectively, quantitative RT-PCR was used to detect group A Rotavirus (RVA), and quantitative PCR was used to detect Enteric adenovirus (EAdV). The specific gene of the virus were sequenced and typed. It was compared that the gastroenteritis virus rate in cases with different characteristics and the clinical symptoms difference between the virus positive and negative cases. Results: The median age (P₂₅, P₇₅) was 23 (1, 42) , mainly male, 57.48% with 803 cased and children under 5 years old, 36.36% with 508 cases. The positive rate of gastroenteritis virus was 33.93% (474 cases), and that of Jinan, Linyi and Yantai City were 32.03% (147/459), 41.54% (189/455) and 28.57% (138/483), respectively (P<0.001). Nov GⅡ had the highest positive rate, 16.54% (231 cases), which, mainly GⅡ.P16/GⅡ.2 (48.28%, 56/116), peaked in May (24.75%, 50/202) and June (19.59%, 38/194). In patients of gastroenteritis virus positive, 44.51% (211/474) had vomiting symptoms, higher than that of patients of gastroenteritis virus negative (34.13%, 315/923). The difference was statistically significant (P<0.001). Conclusion In Shandong Province, the majority of gastroenteritis patients were male and children under 5 years old. Nov GⅡ possessed highest epidemic intensity, and peaked in spring and summer. Viral gastroenteritis had atypical clinical symptoms.

Objective: To analyze the epidemiological characteristics and pathogen types of viral diarrhea in children under 5 years of age in Shandong province, and provide reference for the prevention and control of viral diarrhea. Methods: A total of 1 017 fecal samples were collected from all children aged 5 years and younger with diarrhea who were admitted to the sentinel hospital of Shandong province from 2012 to 2017 within 3 days. Rotavirus antigen was detected by using an ELISA method . Rotavirus G/P typing was performed by RT-PCR; Norovirus (GI and GII), Sapovirus, and Astrovirus were detected by multiplex RT-PCR, and adenovirus was detected by PCR. Results: In the 1 017 fecal specimens, the overall positive rate was 51.62% (525/1017), and viral nucleic acids were detected in at least 421 samples, and mixed virus infection was found in 104 sampes. The mixed infection accounted for 10.23% (104/1017) of all infections. The positive detection rates of Rotavirus, Calicivirus, Adenovirus and Astrovirus were 34.22% (348/1017), 16.91% (172/1017), 2.56% (26/1017), and 9.64% (98/1017)). The total detection rate of diarrhea virus and the detection rate of Rotavirus were the highest at 12 to 17 months of age, which was 51.72% (105/203) and 20.20% (41/203), respectively. The positive rate of diarrhea in children aged 2 years and younger was 49.36% (502/1017), which was much higher than the positive rate of diarrhea in children over 2 years old (2.26% (23/1017)). The peak of viral diarrhea was found to occur between November and April of the following year. The genotype of rotavirus was dominated by G9 (82.76%), the P genotype was dominated by P[8] (80.46%), and the G/P combination was dominated by G9P[8] (83.87%). Norovirus was the main infection in the Calicivirus (87.21%). Conclusions From 2012 to 2017, viral diarrhea in children under 5 years of age in Shandong Province was mainly caused by Rotavirus infection, followed by Norovirus. The overall prevalence of viral diarrhea in Shandong was moderate in China, and autumn and winter were the main epidemic season for viral diarrhea.

To study the effect of serum containing Xihuang pill on the proliferation of human breast cancer cell lines MDA-MB-435 and MCF-7 and the gene and protein expressions of Bcl-2, Bax, TP53, in order to explore the effect and mechanism of Xihuang pill in resisting breast cancer. The serum of the rats was prepared by the method of MTT assay. The expressions of Bcl-2 and Bax were detected by RT-PCR. The serum levels of Bcl-2 and Bax and the mRNA expression of TP53 were detected by immunofluorescence. The rats with serum containing Xihuang pill could inhibit the proliferation of MDA-MB-435 cells and MCF-7 cells (<0.05). The serum containing Xihuang pill increased TP53 and Bax in MDA-MB-435 cells (<0.05), and the ratio of Bcl-2/Bax was decreased (<0.05). Meanwhile, the serum containing Xihuang pill could up-regulate the mRNA expression of Bax in MCF-7 cells and decrease the expression of Bcl (<0.05), but there was no significant difference between the expression of TP53mRNA and Bax protein expressions after the treatment of MCF-7 cells with Xihuang pill serum. Serum containing Xihuang pill can induce the apoptosis of human breast cancer cells, and the mechanism of estrogen receptor-negative breast cancer cell apoptosis may be induced by up-regulating the mRNA expression of TP53, which can induce the expression of Bax and promote the metastasis of Bax to mitochondria, and ultimately play the role of inducing apoptosis.

Objective To investigate the changes and related factors of maternal thyroid autoantibodies during early pregnancy. Methods Urinary iodine concentration( UIC) , serum thyroid stimulating hormone( TSH) , free thyroxine ( FT4 ) , thyroid-peroxidase antibody ( TPOAb ) , thyroglobulin antibody ( TgAb ) concentrations were determined in 7 190 women during early pregnancy in an iodine-sufficient region of China. Results The prevalence of TPOAb positivity and TgAb positivity were 8. 7% and 12. 0% respectively. The prevalence of overt hypothyroidism and subclinical hypothyroidism increased significantly in group of thyroid antibody positivity. The prevalence of TPOAb positivity and TgAb positivity presented a U-shaped curve, ranging from mild iodine deficiency to iodine excess, especially increased significantly in the group with UIC<100 μg/L. Conclusion Prevalence of thyroid antibodies positivity became higher during early pregnancy. The positive thyroid autoantibodies during pregnancy were significantly associated with maternal hypothyroidism. Both iodine excess and iodine deficiency are risk factors of positive thyroid antibodies.

Objective:To study on the levels of CXCL8 and its receptors (CXCR1 and CXCR2) in peripheral blood neutrophils of the patients with chronic hepatitis B.Methods:The neutrophils were isolated and purified by neutrophil isolation medium,and the loads of HBV-DNA in neutrophils were detected by PCR,and the levels of HBeAg in serum were measured by ELISA.The patients were divided into different groups according to the detective results so that the expressions of CXCL8 and its receptors ( CXCR1,CXCR2) in neutrophils were detected by the methods of streptavidin-biotin complex ( SABC ) immunocytochemistry stain.Results:The data of SABC immunocytochemical stain showed that the positive color of CXCL8 was mainly located in the cytoplasm of PMNs.However,the most positive color of CXCR1and CXCR2 was mainly expressed in the cytoplasm and cell membrane.Interestingly,the deeper immune coloring of CXCL8 and CXCR1, and relatively shallow immune coloring of CXCR2 were explored in the group with positive of HBeAg.The similar detective results also had been found in the cases with positive of HBV DNA in neutrophils.Compared with the normal control group,the levels of CXCL8 and CXCR1 in the patients were significantly increased ( P<0.05) ,but the differences were too small to be statistically significant in the level of CXCR2 (P>0.05).Conclusion:After neutrophils occult infected by HBV,not only the secretion of CXCL8 can be promoted, but also the expression of CXCR1 will be further increased.The data of immunohistochemical staining have been shown that the color degree of CXCL8 and its receptors ( CXCR1, CXCR2 ) are positive correlation to the level of HBeAg and the loads of HBV DNA.More PMNs can be chemotactic attraction to lesion so as to participate in the local inflammatory injury and tissue repair via the interactive pathway of the high expression of CXCR1 on surface of neutrophils with CXCL8.

Objective To analyze the efficacy and safety of glimepiride treatment as initial monotherapy in newly diagnosed patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).Methods This was a subgroup analysis of the GREAT study,which investigated the efficacy and safety of glimepiride as initial monotherapy in Chinese patients with T2DM.This analysis was performed in 209 patients with disease duration less than 6 months and never received any anti-diabetic drugs.The change of HbA1C,fasting plasm glucose (FPG),2 h postprandial blood glucose (2hPPG),homeostasis model assessment for β-cell function index (HOMA-β),homeostasis model assessment for insulin-resistance index(HOMA-IR),the percentage of patients with HbA1C ＜ 7.0％ at endpoint and the incidence of hypoglycemia were evaluated after 16-weeks treatment.Results After 16-weeks glimepiride treatment,HbA1C value reduced significantly from baseline to endpoint,the reduction was statistically significant (9.21％ ± 1.65％ to 6.69％±0.83％,P＜0.001),69.7％ of the patients achieved HbA1C ＜7.0％ at study endpoint.Glimepiride-treated patients also achieved a significant improvement in FPG [from (10.15 ± 2.13) mmol/L to (7.23 ± 1.50) mmol/L,P＜0.001] and 2hPPG [from (17.21 ±4.14) mmol/L to (11.62 ± 3.34) mmol/L].HOMA-β was improved from 17.21± 15.19 [11.62 (2.90,115.8)] to 41.13 ± 44.12 [28.00 (5.1,360.00)],and HOMA-IR was reduced from 2.32± 1.90 [1.76 (0.60,12.80)] to 2.07 ± 1.74 [1.63 (0.4,12.3)].The incidence of all reported symptomatic hypoglycemia was 18.2％,and the incidence of confirmed hypoglycemia was 3.8％.Conclusion This analysis showed that glimepiride treatment as an initial mono-therapy could effectively improve blood glucose control in newly diagnosed patients with T2DM,and the treatment may improve islet β cell function,and the safety profile is reasonably good.
