Objective To understand the serotypes and sources of dengue virus (DENV) in Yunnan Province in 2023, providing a scientific basis for dengue fever prevention and control. Methods DENV nucleic acid testing and virus isolation were performed on the serum samples of dengue fever cases diagnosed at three national monitoring sites in Yunnan Province (Longchuan County, Menghai County, Hekou County) in 2023. Dengue virus envelope (E) gene sequencing was performed on positive serum samples and dengue virus isolates, and phylogenetic analysis was conducted using molecular biology software. Results A total of 1 006 dengue fever cases were reported at three monitoring sites in 2023, including 838 imported cases, 161 cases imported from other counties and cities in Yunnan, and 7 autochthonous cases. Among 371 serum samples, 351 were found DENV-positive, including 305 DENV-1 positive samples (174 imported from Myanmar, 1 imported from Laos, 1 imported from Vietnam, 99 imported from Jinghong, 26 imported from Ruili, and 4 local cases), 43 DENV-2 positive samples (8 imported from Myanmar, 6 imported from Jinghong, 26 imported from Ruili, and 3 local cases), 1 DENV-3 positive sample (imported from Myanmar), 1 DENV-4 positive sample (introduced from Ruili), and 1 untyped case. A total of 23 DENV strains were isolated, including 9 strains of DENV-1, 12 strains of DENV-2, 1 strain of DENV-3, and 1 strain of DENV-4. All DENV-1 strains from three monitoring sites belong to genotype I but were located on different evolutionary branches. The DENV-2 strains from Menghai County and Longchuan County belonged to the Cosmopolitan genotype and Asian I genotype, respectively. The DENV-3 strain from Longchuan County belonged to genotype I, and the DENV-4 strain from Longchuan County belonged to genotype I. Conclusions During the dengue fever epidemic season, the border regions of Yunnan Province face dual pressures from both international and domestic imported dengue cases. Imported or introduced cases carried DENVs of serotypes 1-4 (with five genotypes in total), leading to local outbreaks caused by these cases. Imported and local DENVs originated from Southeast Asian countries and exhibited distinct geographic distribution characteristics.

OBJECTIVE:To investi gate the role of clinical pharmacists in the treatment of delayed excretion of acute renal failure (ARF) with epileptic seizure caused by HD-MTX in a patient ,and to provide reference for rational drug use and pharmaceutical care in such type of patients. METHODS :A patient with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma was given HD-MTX for chemotherapy,and ARF caused by delayed methotrexate excretion occurred on the second day after methotrexate administration. Clinical physicians adjusted the rescue dose and frequency of calcium folinate but the effect was poor. Clinical pharmacists analyzed the causes of delayed methotrexate excretion by reviewing literature and combining with the patient ’s condition. It was suggested to monitor the blood concentration of methotrexate ,strengthen alkalization and hydration ,increase the volume of intravenous sodium bicarbonate from 125 mL to 250 mL,take Sodium bicarbonate tablets orally ,and monitor the pH value of urine (pH value of urine maintained above 7). In addition ,the pharmacist told the patient to drink water as much as possible to ensure the daily urine output reached 3 000 to 4 000 mL. The blood concentration of methotrexate was 16.14 μmol/L 44 h after administration ,which proved to be excretion delay. The patient had epileptic seizure on the 13th day after methotrexate medication. The physician gave sodium valproate 0.8 g intravenously to control epilepsy. The clinical pharmacist conducted pharmaceutical care for the patient ,and found that the compliance of the patient taking Sodium bicarbonate tablets and Sodium valproate tablets orally was not good ,so medication education and pharmaceutical care were conducted ,then the patient accepted and took the drugs on time. RESULTS : The physician adopted the suggestions of the pharmacist to monitor the blood concentration of methotrexate and performed symptomatic treatment. The urine volume of the patient increased ,the edema was reduced ,serum creatinine gradually returned to normal,and renal function recovered gradually ;the symptoms of epilepsy was controlled. CONCLUSIONS :In the treatment process of ARF complicated with epileptic seizure caused by excretion delay of HD-MTX ,the clinical pharmacist assisted physician to improve the treatment plan and conducted pharmaceutical care and medication education for the patient ,therefore ensure the safe and rational use of drugs .

Objective:To investigate the diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of squamous cell carcinoma of renal pelvis.Methods:The clinic data of 28 cases with squamous cell carcinoma of renal pelvis confirmed by pathologic examination treated during June 2007 and September 2019 was retrospectively analyzed. There were 19 male and 9 female patients, with a median age of 56 years. Hematuria was present in 18 cases, flank pain was present in 11 cases, and abdominal mass was present in 1 case. All 28 cases accepted CT or MRI examination. Renal pelvis or renal tumors were found in 26 cases, and severe hydronephrosis was observed in 2 cases. 2 cases underwent PET/CT, and bone metastasis was found in 1 case. Preoperative diagnoses were renal pelvic tumor in 13 cases, renal tumor in 13 cases and renal abscess in 2 cases. Coexisting renal calculi or renal pelvic calculus was detected in 19 cases. All 28 cases underwent surgical excision, including radical nephroureterectomy in 13 cases, radical nephrectomy in 12 cases, palliative resection in 1 case, and pyonephrenectomy in 2 cases. Enlarged lymph nodes were found in 9 cases during the surgery, and local lymph node dissection was performed in these cases.Results:The mean diameter of the tumors was 8.5 cm. Histopathological examination revealed that 9 cases were well differentiated, 11 cases were moderately differentiated, and 8 case was poorly differentiated. 1 case had pT 2 stage, 15 cases had pT 3 stage and 12 cases had pT 4 stage. 9 cases had lymph node metastasis. 5 cases had renal vein thrombosis. Immunohistochemistry staining exhibited consistent characteristics including CK5(+ ), 34βE12(+ ), p63(+ ), CK20(-) and GATA3(-). Postoperatively, 12 cases received adjuvant therapy including chemotherapy, radiotherapy and/or immunotherapy. Within a median follow-up of 6.0 months (ranging 1-80 months), median overall survival was 10.0 months. 15 cases died of tumor progression. Conclusion:Squamous cell carcinoma is a rare and highly aggressive neoplasm, typically associated with long-lasting renal calculi, hydronephrosis and chronic inflammation. The diagnosis should be established on pathologic examination.CK5, 34βE12 and p63 positivity contribute to the diagnosis of squamous cell carcinoma. Surgery is the foremost choice of treatment, but the risk of recurrence and metastasis is high. The prognosis is extremely poor as the majority of patients are diagnosed with advanced stages.

Objective:To study the pathological characteristics, diagnosis and treatment of primary adenocarcinoma of renal pelvis and ureter.Methods:The clinical pathological characteristics, treatment and prognosis of 5 patients with adenocarcinoma of upper urinary tract treated between January 2007 and May 2019 was retrospectively reviewed. There were 4 male and 1 female patients, with a median age of 60 years. The major symptoms were hematuria in 5 cases and low back pain in 4 cases. All cases underwent B-ultrasound and CT examination, and 4 cases accepted cystoscopy. Preoperative diagnoses were ureter tumor in 2 cases, renal pelvis tumor in 1 case, renal tumor in 1 case and renal calculus in 1 case.Results:5 cases were treated with surgery. Radical nephroureterectomy was performed in 3 cases, and nephrectomy in one case. 1 case underwent first-stage percutaneous nephrolithotomy and second-stage radical nephroureterectomy due to the discovery of tumor. 1 case was treated with radiotherapy and immune checkpoint inhibitor postoperatively. The mean diameter of the tumors was 4.4 cm. There were 3 renal pelvis adenocarcinomas and 2 ureter adenocarcinomas confirmed by pathologic examination, including 3 cases of pT 3 stage and 1 case of pT 4 stage. Lymph node metastasis was found in 2 cases. Immunohistochemistry revealed that CDX2(+ ), p63(-), GATA3(-), β-catenin(-)were the common features of five cases. The median survival was 12 months with a median follow-up of 6 months. 2 cases died of tumor progression within 1 year. Conclusions:Adenocarcinoma is an extremely rare malignancy, typically associated with long-standing calculi and chronic inflammation. Given the fact that clinical and imaging findings are nonspecific, the diagnosis is based on pathologic examination, supported by glandular structure of histology. Immunohistochemical staining exhibited CDX2 and CK20 positivity and β-catenin negativity, moreover, GATA3, p63 and CK7 was usually negative or partially positive. Surgery is the foremost choice of treatment. The prognosis is correlated with subtypes, whereas the overall prognosis is poor due to high rates of recurrence and metastasis.

Objective: To investigate the survival and individualized therapy of metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) patients who achieved a stable disease state after induction chemotherapy. Methods:Data were reviewed from 204 metastatic colorectal cancer pa-tients, who presented a stable disease state after first-line and second-line chemotherapy at Tianjin Medical University Cancer Insti-tute and Hospital. The clinical and pathological characteristics were analyzed. Moreover, we analyzed the significance of maintenance treatment in patients with certain mCRC characteristics. Results:Univariate analysis indicated that the line of chemotherapy, levels of CA724, CEA, and CA19-9, and platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) were considered prognostic factors of treatment after induction che-motherapy. According to the multivariate analysis, first-line chemotherapy, as well as low levels of CA19-9 and PLR, with maintenance treatment after the induction chemotherapy was significantly associated with better survival. Among the patients with high levels of PLR, those who underwent maintenance treatment achieved a progression-free survival of 13.43 months (versus 10.63 months in pa-tients from the observation group, P=0.003). Conclusion:The levels of CA19-9 and PLR, and treatment after chemotherapy were signif-icant prognostic factors for mCRC patients who achieved a stable disease state after induction chemotherapy. These patients, especial-ly those with high PLR, could benefit from the maintenance treatment.
