Objective:To study the correlation between spontaneous cerebrospinal fluid rhinorrhea and increased intracranial pressure.Methods:Clinical data of patients with spontaneous cerebrospinal fluid rhinorrhea treated in the Department of Otorhinolaryngology of the Provincial Hospital of Shandong First Medical University from January 2019 to December 2023 and their epidemiology, clinical symptoms and signs, preoperative cerebrospinal fluid pressure, imaging data, leakage site, repair method and the presence or absebce of increased intracranial pressure were analysed. SPSS 23.0 software was used for statistical analysis.Results:Of the 57 patients with cerebrospinal fluid nasolacrimal leakage, 84.2%(48/57) were females and 15.8%(9/57) were males; 80.7%(46/57) were between 40 and 60 years old; and overweight and obese patients accounted for 75.4%(43/57). Of 57 patients, 35 patients received cranial MRI+magnetic resonance venography, and among them, 12(34.3%) patients were clinically with headache symptoms; the incidences of empty pterygoid and venous sinus stenosis were 40.0%(14/35) and 51.4%(18/35), respectively; and 33 patients underwent preoperative lumbar puncture examination, of whom 25(75.8%) patients had the increased cerebrospinal fluid pressure and 1 patient had idiopathic intracranial hypertension. All 57 patients underwent dural repair of the skull base, the postoperative follow-up period ranged from 3 to 60 months, and the success rate of surgery was 94.7%. The success rate was 100% in female patients and 33.3%(3/9) in male patients, including one with surgical failure receiving reoperation and two with postoperative recurrence in other areas of the skull base, with significant difference in the success rate of surgery between males and females (χ 2=16.890, P<0.001). Conclusions:Most patients with spontaneous cerebrospinal fluid rhinorrhea have the increased cerebrospinal fluid pressures, but very few fulfil the diagnosis of idiopathic intracranial hypertension. The success rate of surgical repair alone is high, but some recurrences still exist, especially in male patients.

Plant natural products have a wide range of pharmacological properties, not only can they be used as plant dietary supplements to meet the nutritional needs of the human body in the accelerated pace of life, but also occupy an important position in the research and development of therapeutic drugs for the treatment of tumors, inflammation and other diseases, and have been widely accepted by the public due to their good safety. However, despite the above advantages of plant natural products, limiting factors such as low solubility, poor stability, lack of targeting, high toxicity and side effects, and unacceptable odor have greatly impeded their conversion to clinical applications. Therefore, the development of new avenues for the application of new natural products has become an urgent problem to be solved at present. In recent years, with the continuous development of research, various strategies have been developed to improve the bioavailability of natural products. Among them, nanocarrier delivery system is one of the most attractive strategies at present. In past studies, a large number of nanomaterials (organic, inorganic, etc.) have been developed to encapsulate plant-derived natural products for their efficient delivery to specific organs and cells. Up to now, nanotechnology has not only been limited to pharmaceutical applications, but is also competing in the fields of nanofood processing technology and nanoemulsions. Among the various nanocarriers, liposomes are the largest nanocarriers with the largest market share at present. Liposomes are bilayer nanovesicles synthesized from amphiphilic substances, which have advantages such as high drug loading capacity and stability. Attractively, the flexible surface of liposomes can be modified with various functional elements. Functionalized modification of liposomes with different functional elements such as antibodies, nucleic acids, peptides, and stimuli-responsive moieties can bring out the excellent drug delivery function of liposomes to a greater extent. For example, the modification of functional elements with targeting function such as nucleic acids and antibodies on the surface of liposomes can deliver natural products to the target location and improve the bioavailability of drugs; the modification of stimulus-responsive groups such as photosensitizers, magnetic nanoparticles, pH-responsive groups, and temperature sensitizers on the surface of liposomes can achieve controlled release of drugs, localized targeting, and synergistic thermotherapy. In addition to the above properties, by using functionalized liposomes to encapsulate natural products with irritating properties can also effectively mask the irritating properties of natural products, improve public acceptance, and increase the possibility of application of irritating natural products. There are various strategies for modifying liposomes with functional elements, and the properties of functionalized liposomes constructed by different construction strategies differ. The commonly used construction strategies for functionalized liposomes include covalent modification and non-covalent modification. These two types of construction strategies have their own advantages and disadvantages. Covalent modification has better stability than non-covalent modification, but its operation is cumbersome. With the above background, this review focuses on the three typical problems faced by plant natural products at present, and summarizes the specific applications of functionalized liposomes in them. In addition, this paper summarizes the construction strategies for building different types of functionalized liposomes. Finally, this paper will also review the opportunities and challenges faced by functionalized liposomes to enter clinical therapy, and explore the opportunities to overcome these problems, with a view to better realizing the precise control of plant nanomedicines, and providing ideas and inspirations for researchers in related fields as well as relevant industrial staff.

Objective: To investigate the status and influencing factors of abnormal spinal curvature among middle school students in Zhejiang Province, so as to provide insights into formulating intervention measures of abnormal spinal curvature among students. Methods: Middle school students were selected from 90 counties (cities or districts) for abnormal spinal curvature screening using the stratified random cluster sampling method based on the Student Common Diseases and Influencing Factors Program in 2022. Basic information, nutritional status, sedentary time and sleep time were collected through questionnaire surveys and physical examination. Influencing factors for abnormal spinal curvature among middle school students were identified using a multivariable logistic regression model. Results: Totally 93 988 students were recruited, and 92 559 students responded effectively, with a response rate of 98.48%. There were 48 578 males (52.48%) and 43 981 females (47.52%). A total of 1 690 students with abnormal spinal curvature were detected, accounting for 1.83%. Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that the students who were female (OR=1.331, 95%CI: 1.204-1.471), lived in suburb areas (OR=1.254, 95%CI: 1.135-1.385), were at ages of 14 years and above (14 to 16 years, OR=1.252, 95%CI: 1.108-1.414; >16 years, OR=1.273, 95%CI: 1.090-1.486) and had sedentary time greater than 10 h/d (OR=1.162, 95%CI: 1.034-1.305) might have higher risks of abnormal spinal curvature, while the students who were overweight or obesity (OR=0.491, 95%CI: 0.426-0.565), regularly adjust the heights of the desks and chairs (OR=0.883, 95%CI: 0.797-0.979), and slept 8 hours or more per day (OR=0.850, 95%CI: 0.765-0.945) might have lower risks of abnormal spinal curvature. Conclusions The prevalence of abnormal spinal curvature among middle school students in Zhejiang Province is associated with gender, region, age, nutritional status, regularly adjusting the heights of desks and chairs, sedentary time and sleep time.

Objective:To analyze clinical significance of peripheral blood neutrophil CD64(nCD64)index in patients with anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody(ANCA)-associated vasculitis(AAV).Methods:The clinical data of 98 AAV patients admitted to the First Medical Center of Chinese People's Liberation Army General Hospital from February 1,2023 to February 29,2024 were retrospectively selected,and they were divided into the high-value group(nCD64 index＞1.82,28 patients)and the normal-value group(nCD64 index≤1.82,70 patients)based on the nCD64 index.Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid(EDTA)-anticoagulated venous blood specimens were collected from patients in both groups,and the mean fluorescence intensity of CD64 expression on the surfaces of polymorphonuclear leukocytes(PMN),lymphocytes(Lym)and monocytes(Mo)was detected by flow cytometry.Clinical manifestations,relevant examination data of hospital,and survival situation of patients with regular follow-up were compared between the two groups.Results:Spearman correlation analysis showed that peripheral blood nCD64 index was positively correlated with Birmingham vasculitis activity score(BVAS)in AAV patients(r=0.216,P＜0.05).There were no statistically significant differences in white blood cells(109/L),blood creatinine(μmol/L),CD8+lymphocytes(amount/μl),CD3-CD16+CD56+lymphocytes(amount/μl),blood sedimentation and interleukin 6 between the two groups.The mean values of BVAS,neutrophils(109/L),CD8+CD28-lymphocytes(％)were respectively(14.96±8.62),(7.51±4.56),(22.16±13.28)in high-value group,which were significantly higher than those[(11.88±7.39),(6.32±3.60)and(17.32±11.27)]in normal-value group,and the mean values of lymphocytes(109/L),platelets(109/L),hemoglobin(g/L),CD3+lymphocytes(amount/Al),CD4+lymphocytes(amount/μl),CD8+CD28+lymphocytes(％)were respectively(1.52±1.01),(216.84±92.32),(106.26±21.99),(1401.15±658.22),(618.43±420.50)and(12.43±5.98)in high-value group,which were significantly lower than those[(1.98±0.95),(248.20±97.21),(114.30±24.71),(1815.43±657.29),(969.15±385.72)and(15.77±7.66)]in normal-value group,and the differences of them between two groups were statistically significant(t=-2.68,-2.04,-2.54,3.25,2.26,2.34,2.02,2.84,3.02,P＜0.05),respectively.Neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio and C-reactive protein of high-value group were higher than those of normal-value group,and eosinophils of high-value group were lower than that of normal-value group,and the differences of them between two groups were statistically significant(Z=-3.370,-2.396,-4.462,P＜0.05),respectively.Conclusions:Peripheral blood nCD64 index is positively correlated with BVAS in AAV patients,which involve in multiple immune cells and inflammatory factors.It has clinically application value in monitoring the disease progression and assessing the prognosis.

Objective To analyze the relationship between serum microRNA(miR)-204 and miR-200b lev-els and clinical efficacy in patients with oral submucosal fibrosis(OSF).Methods A total of 110 patients with OSF who visited Affiliated Hospital of Hebei Engineering University from December 2021 to December 2022 were collected as the study group,another 50 healthy people who underwent physical examination during the same period were collected as the control group.The quantitative real-time PCR(qRT-PCR)method was ap-plied to detect and compare the serum levels of miR-204 and miR-200b in the study group and the control group.The study group was divided into miR-204 high expression group and low expression group,and miR-200b high expression group and low expression group.The clinical efficacy,transforming growth factor β1(TGF-β1),interleukin-6(IL-6),clinical pathological features,and visual analogue scale(VAS)of patients with different levels of serum miR-204 and miR-200b were compared,and Spearman and Pearson methods were applied to analyze the correlation between serum miR-204 and miR-200b levels and various indicators in the study group.Results The serum level of miR-204 and miR-200b in the study group was obviously lower than those in the control group,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).The total effective rates of patients in the high expression group of miR-204 and the high expression group of miR-200b were both 100.00％,which were higher than the total effective rates of the low expression group of miR-204 and the low expression group of miR-200b(86.79％and 88.89％)respectively,and the differences were statisti-cally significant(P＜0.05).The results of univariate analysis showed that the serum levels of miR-204 and miR-200b in OSF patients with chewing betel nut,mouth opening degree≤28 mm,oral mucosal lesion area＞4 cm2,and VAS score＞3 points were obviously lower than those with non chewing betel nut,mouth opening degree＞28 mm,oral mucosal lesion area≤4 cm2,and VAS score≤3 points,and the differences were statis-tically significant(P＜0.05).The levels of TGF-β1 and IL-6 in patients with high expression of miR-204 and miR-200b were obviously lower than those in patients with low expression of miR-204 and miR-200b,and the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05).The correlation analysis results showed that the serum levels of miR-204 and miR-200b in patients with OSF were negatively correlated with oral mucosal lesion are-a,VAS score,TGF-β1,IL-6(P＜0.05),and positively correlated with mouth opening degree(P＜0.05).Conclusion The serum levels of miR-204 and miR-200b in patients with OSF are closely related to clinical ef-ficacy,and when the serum levels of miR-204 and miR-200b increase,OSF patients have better clinical efficacy.

Cushing's disease is a severe endocrine disorder caused by excess secretion of adrenocorticotropic hormone from pituitary.Due to its subtle early clinical manifestations,the diagnosis of Cushing's disease is often delayed,and differentiating it from ectopic adrenocorticotropic hormone syndrome is a challenge.Combined functional tests can improve the diagnostic accuracy of Cushing's disease.The primary treatment for Cushing's disease is surgical removal of pituitary adenoma.However,about 1/3 of patients do not respond or experience recurrence after surgery,necessitating second-line treatments including medication.The development of novel drugs has enhanced the role of pharmacotherapy in the management of Cushing's disease.The review discusses the classic and emerging diagnostic methods and treatment strategies of Cushing's disease to deepen clinicians'understanding of its current treatment status and prospects.

Objective To investigate disease characteristics and hospitalization costs of children with Mycoplasma Pneumoniae pneumonia(MPP)admitted to Shanghai municipal medical hospitals from 2019 to 2023.Methods Depending on the Shanghai Municipal Hospital Pediatric Alliance,we retrospectively investigated community acquired MPP pediatric patients hospitalized in 22 municipal hospitals with pediatric qualifications(including 4 children's hospitals)in Shanghai from Jan 2019 to Dec 2023.We collected the patients'diagnosis codes,gender,age,length of hospital stay,hospitalization costs,and whether they progressed to severe Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia(SMPP).Results From 2019 to 2023,a total of 29 045 hospitalized children with MPP were treated,with 6 035 cases(20.8%)identified as SMPP in the 22 hospitals.Trend analysis revealed a rising trend with years in the proportion of SMPP patients(χ2trend=365.498,P<0.001).Among the 4 children's hospitals,there were 18 710 cases with MPP,including 4 078 cases(21.8%)of SMPP.The proportion of SMPP patients also showed an increasing trend with years(χ2trend=14.548,P<0.001),and the proportion in 2023(23.0%)was higher than that in previous years with statistical significance.There were statistical differences in the seasonal distribution of MPP cases between different years,with higher proportions in summer and autumn overall.The age distribution of hospitalized MPP children varied among different years,with school-age children accounting for the majority(56.8%)in 2023.There was no difference in the distribution of severe cases between different genders,but there were differences in the proportion of severe cases among different age groups in different years,with a gradual increase in severe cases among children aged 1 to 3 years(χ2trend=191.567,P<0.001).The average length of hospital stay for MPP during the epidemic was higher than that during non-epidemic periods,and there were statistically significant differences in the average length of hospital stay between different years(P<0.001).The individual hospitalization costs during the epidemic were higher than in other years,and there were statistically significant differences in individual hospitalization costs between different years(P<0.001).The total hospitalization costs were still higher in 2019 and 2023.The individual hospitalization costs for SMPP were higher than for non-SMPP cases.Conclusion MPP outbreaks occurred in Shanghai in 2019 and 2023,with the higher proportions in summer and autumn overall.Compared to previous years,the number of hospitalized MPP children in Shanghai was higher in 2023,with a higher proportion of SMPP cases,especially among children under 3 years old.The individual per capita hospitalization expenses for SMPP cases were higher than for non-SMPP cases.
