Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease(NAFLD),also known as metabolic associated fatty liver disease(MAFLD),is one of the most common chronic liver diseases characterized by the fat accumulation in the liver and hepatocellular damage.Patients with NAFLD can manifest as simple fatty liver or non-alcoholic steatohepatitis(NASH)in the early stage,and can progress to hepatic fibrosis,hepatic cirrhosis,hepatic fail-ure,and hepatic carcinoma in the late stage.NAFLD has become the most common chronic liver disease,af-fecting more than 30%of the population worldwide,posing a threat to human health that cannot be ignored.However,the current research on NAFLD is still incomplete,and there is no ideal medication for the treat-ment of NAFLD.The clinical management of NAFLD lacks unified standards and evidence-based evidence,and the multiple comorbidities bring challenges to the clinical management of NAFLD.This article was aimed to review the research progress in the clinical management of NAFLD,including the diagnosis and non-invasive examination methods,evaluation and commonly used tools,treatments methods,advantages and disadvanta-ges,so as to provide a reference for the clinical management of NAFLD.

Objective:To investigate the conversion of stromal vascular fraction (SVF) in the microenvironment of radiation-induced skin injuries to provide guidance for clinical applications.Methods:Based on a random number table, C57BL/6N mice were categorized into four groups: the blank control, negative control, acute injury, and chronic injury groups, with each group containing 25 mice. The backs of mice in the blank control, acute injury, and chronic injury groups were exposed to 15 Gy X-ray irradiation. Then, the mice in the negative control, acute injury, and chronic injury groups were injected subcutaneously with the SVF derived from B6/G-R mice. The survival of these mice was observed 1, 3, 7, 14, and 21 d after the injection through fluorescence tracing and in vivo imaging. Accordingly, the clinical SVF injection regimens were optimized based on the experimental result of mice. Finally, local SVF injection was performed on different frequencies for patients in different wound conditions, with the efficacy being observed. Results:The fluorescence of SVF was observed from the tissue slices of the acute injury, chronic injury, and negative control groups 14 d post-injection. The result showed that the fluorescence intensity of SVF 1, 3, and 7 d post-injection was in the order of the negative control group > the acute injury group > the chronic injury group. The acute injury group ranked at the top and the chronic injury group remained at the bottom 14 d after the injection. The fluorescence of SVF in each group was barely detected 21 d after the injection. Compared to the negative control group, the acute injury group exhibited statistical differences only 14 d post-injection ( t = 4.11, P < 0.05), while the chronic injury group displayed statistical differences 1, 3, 7, and 14 d after the injection ( t = 3.88-5.74, P < 0.05). Furthermore, the acute injury group exhibited significantly higher fluorescence intensity of SVF than the chronic injury group ( t = 4.73-8.38, P < 0.05). The half-life of SVF for the negative control, acute injury, and chronic injury groups was 6.336, 6.014, and 2.163 d, respectively. As indicated by the application of SVF transplantation based on traditional surgical protocols in the clinical trial, SVF can significantly promote wound repair, with earlier SVF transplantation being more beneficial for wound healing. Conclusions:The conversion of SVF differs in the microenvironments of acute and chronic radiation-induced skin injuries. This can serve as an essential guide for the administration timing and injection frequency of SVF in clinical applications.

Objective:To describe the incidence of peritoneal dialysis (PD) catheter exit site infection (ESI) and to analyze its pathogenic bacteria characteristics.Methods:The clinical data of PD patients with ESI in Nanfang Hospital of Southern Medical University from 2020 to 2022 was reviewed to describe the dynamic changes in the incidence of ESI, and to analyze the distribution of ESI pathogens, antimicrobial sensitivity analysis of topical antibiotics and treatment outcomes.Results:A total of 187 ESI episodes occurred in 159 PD patients. The proportion of gram-positive and gram-negative ESI were 80.7% and 18.3%, respectively. The main gram-positive and gram-negative pathogen were coagulase negative Staphylococcus (51.1%) and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (60.0%). Rifampicin (sensitivity rate of gram-positive organisms was 88.9%; gram-negative organisms was 100.0%) and gentamicin (sensitivity rate of gram-positive organisms was 83.6%; gram-negative organisms was 93.3%) is the main topical sensitive antibiotics. 137 cases (73.3%) of ESI were cured within 2 weeks after treatment. Among the 50 cases (26.7%) of refractory ESI, 22.0% of cases were associated with tunnel infection, 10.0% with tunnel reconstruction, and only 4.0% with removal of PD catheter. Conclusion:Monitoring and reporting of ESI is an important part to improve the quality of PD management. By reviewing the incidence of ESI, pathogenic bacteria characteristics and treatment effects, real and reliable observational data for the formulation of relevant guidelines and clinical diagnosis and treatment can be provided.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.

In various immunomodulatory systems,there exists a transmembrane receptor expressed on the surface of immune cells,which can play a role selectively,namely the sialic-binding immunoglobulin-like lectin(Siglec)family.Inhibition of host T cell antigen response is a key factor in inducing immune tolerance of liver transplantation.Recently,Siglec-15 has been found to be an important T cell suppressor molecule,and some of its family members have similar structure and biological characteristics.It is speculated that the mem-bers of Siglec family may be a new target for inducing liver immune tolerance.Therefore,this paper reviews the relevant literatures in this field,and takes Siglec-15 as the entry point to explore the possible role and mo-lecular mechanism of Siglec family in inhibiting host T cell antigen response and regulating immune response in order to provide the new ideas for the establishment of immune regulation and tolerance after transplanta-tion.

Objective To investigate the effect of embryonic inflammatory exposure on the response of mouse offspring to interphotoreceptor retinoid-binding protein(IRBP)-induced experimental autoimmune uveitis(EAU).Methods RNA transcriptome sequencing data from eyeballs of C57BL/6J mouse offspring born to mothers with active EAU were used to screen immune-associated differentially expressed genes in the eyes of the exposed offspring.Gene fragments overlapping in the two datasets were screened using Gene Ontology(GO)and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes(KEGG)enrichment analyses to identify biological pathways associated with the gene fragments.Hub genes were identified from these intersecting genes by protein-protein interaction network analysis.EAU models of maternal uveitis were established by immunization with IRBP651-670,and expression levels of the pivotal genes in the offspring exposed to inflammation by maternal uveitis were examined by fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction.EAU severity,T lymphocyte proliferation,and serum cytokines were detected to investigate the immune effect in offspring from mothers with an active inflammation response to IRBP induction.Results Microarray analysis identified 72 immune-related differentially expressed genes in exposed samples compared with the findings in control samples.These genes were mainly enriched in Toll-like receptor signaling,mitogen-activated protein kinase signaling,and B cell receptor signaling pathways.Protein-protein interaction network interaction analysis screened out four hub genes,Psmc5,Psmc3,Psmd4,and Psmd8,and mRNA levels of these four genes were increased in the adult offspring from mothers with active uveitis compared with the findings in healthy offspring.In addition,the group induced with 150 μg IRBP showed an increase in the severity of clinical and pathological outcomes in offspring with EAU affected by active inflammation,compared with the healthy offspring group(P=0.0087,P=0.0410).Meanwhile,T cell proliferation in the offspring was enhanced during the inflammatory activity stage and secretion of the inflammatory cytokines interleukin(IL)-17 and IL-6 was increased(P=0.0450,P=0.0300).Conclusions Psmc5,Psmc3,Psmd4,and Psmd8 may be important genes exacerbating uveitis in offspring of mothers with active uveitis,associated with increased T cell proliferation and production of IL-17 and IL-6.

Novel coronavirus Omicron variant infection can cause severe illness and even death in certain populations. Omicron variant infection may lead to systemic inflammatory response, coagulation disorder, multi-organ dysfunction and other pathophysiological changes, which are different from other Novel coronavirus variants to a certain extent, so therapeutic strategies should not be the same. The National Medical Center for Major Public Health Events invited experts in fields of infectious diseases, respiratory medicine, intensive care, pediatrics and fever clinic to develop this quick guideline based on the current best evidence and extensive clinical practices. This quick guideline aims to standardize the diagnosis and treatment of novel coronavirus Omicron infection, and to improve the disease management abilities of clinicians.

Objective To observe the effects of amarogentinon liver cancer stem cells (LCSCs) after insufficient thermal ablation and its mechanism. Methods A insufficient thermal ablation model of HepG2 cells was established by water bath method.The percentage of CD133-positive LCSCs and the mRNA and protein levels of CD133 were detected by flow cytometry, qRT-PCR and Western blot.The insufficient thermal ablation model of HepG2 cells was treated with variable doses of amarogentin for 24 h; the percentage of CD133-positive LCSCs, the proliferation and apoptosis of liver cancer cells, and the mRNA and protein levels of CD133, TBC1D15, and p53were detected by flow cytometry, qRT-PCR and Western blot. Results The percentage of CD133-positive HepG2 cells and the mRNA and protein levels of CD133 and TBC1D15in the insufficient thermal ablation model were significantly higher than those in the normal HepG2 cells.Amarogentin then markedly decreased the percentage of CD133-positive LCSCs, the proliferation rate of HepG2 cells, and the mRNA and protein levels of CD133 and TBC1D15 in the insufficient thermal ablationresidual model (all P < 0.05);inversely, the apoptosis rate of HepG2 cells and the phosphorylated levels of p53 in the insufficient thermal ablation model were significantly increased (all P < 0.05). Conclusion Amarogentin could reduce the proportion of LCSCs after insufficient thermal ablation, inhibit the proliferation, and promote the apoptosis of LCSCs, which maybe associated with increasing the phosphorylation of p53 and inhibiting the expression of TBC1D15.

Objective To compare the clinical efficacy between traditional laparoscopic surgery and laparoscopic surgery under the guidance of membrane anatomy with complete mesangectomy in the treatment of rectal cancer. Methods A retrospective cohort study was conducted on 60 patients with rectal cancer who were randomly divided into control group (n=30) and observation group (n=30) in accordance with the principle of randomization.The control group received traditional laparoscopic radical resection of rectal cancer, and the observation group received laparoscopic radical resection of rectal cancer under the guidance of membrane anatomy with complete mesangectomy.The different clinical application effects of the two groups were analyzed by comparing the general data, operation time, intraoperative blood loss, and postoperative rehabilitation. Results All the 60 patients underwent the laparoscopic radical resection of rectal cancer.No operation-related complications, conversion to laparotomy, or perioperative death cases were reported.No statistically significant differences in age, gender, operation time, postoperative exhaust time, drainage tube removal time, or postoperative complications were found between the two groups (all P > 0.05).Compared with the control group, the observation group had significantly less intraoperative blood loss and more lymph node dissected (P < 0.05). Conclusion Laparoscopic radical resection of rectal cancer guided by the membrane anatomy with complete mesangectomy can completely remove the mesorectum, enlarge and clear the surgical field, reduce intraoperative bleeding, thoroughly remove lymph nodes, and improve the quality of surgery.

Objective: To measure the body mass index (BMI) of secondary school students and analyze its association with the physical fitness index, so as to improve the physical health of middle school students. Methods: Using a randomized cluster stratified sampling method, 3 813 secondary school students from six cities (Ganzhou, Ji an, Fuzhou, Nanchang, Shangrao and Jiujiang) in Jiangxi Province, China, were selected in September 2022. Questionnaire survey was administered to obtain basic information and to assess the nutritional status and physical fitness tests were conducted among secondary school students. The study was stratified by gender and age, and the Kruskal Wallis H test was used to compare the differences in the mean values of grip strength, sit-ups, standing long jump performance and strength quality among secondary school students with different BMI levels, while the correlation between BMI and strength quality index was inferred by using curve regression analysis. Results: There was statistical significance in the strength quality index of middle school students with different BMI level ( H=56.79, 8.84, P <0.05). Except 13 years old group, the difference of physical fitness by BMI grade strength quality index of boys in other age groups was statistically significant ( H =22.21, 16.23, 17.98, 18.21, 8.08), while the difference of physical fitness by BMI of girls at 14 years old was statistically significant ( H =9.11)( P <0.05). The curve fitting using regression showed that the physical fitness index and BMI of middle school students (boys and girls) show an inverted U-shaped curve. The physical fitness index was higher in the middle region of BMI ( Z-score) and lower in the two end regions, while showing a decreasing trend from the middle to the two ends. Conclusion An association is found between BMI and physical fitness among secondary school students in Jiangxi Province, and wasting and overweight/obesity are negatively correlated with physical fitness. Greater attention should be paid to the nutritional status of secondary school students to ensure the normal development of physical fitness.
