Objective:To assess the clinical effectiveness and safety of Omalizumab for treating pediatric allergic asthma in real world in China.Methods:The clinical data of children aged 6 to 11 years with allergic asthma who received Omalizumab treatment in 17 hospitals in China between July 6, 2018 and September 30, 2020 were retrospectively analyzed.Such information as the demographic characteristics, allergic history, family history, total immunoglobulin E (IgE) levels, specific IgE levels, skin prick test, exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) levels, eosinophil (EOS) counts, and comorbidities at baseline were collected.Descriptive analysis of the Omalizumab treatment mode was made, and the difference in the first dose, injection frequency and course of treatment between the Omalizumab treatment mode and the mode recommended in the instruction was investigated.Global Evaluation of Treatment Effectiveness (GETE) analysis was made after Omalizumab treatment.The moderate-to-severe asthma exacerbation rate, inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) dose, lung functions were compared before and after Omalizumab treatment.Changes in the Childhood Asthma Control Test (C-ACT) and Pediatric Asthma Quality of Life Questionnaire (PAQLQ) results from baseline to 4, 8, 12, 16, 24, and 52 weeks after Omalizumab treatment were studied.The commodity improvement was assessed.The adverse event (AE) and serious adverse event (SAE) were analyzed for the evaluation of Omalizumab treatment safety.The difference in the annual rate of moderate-to-severe asthma exacerbation and ICS reduction was investigated by using t test.The significance level was set to 0.05.Other parameters were all subject to descriptive analysis.A total of 200 allergic asthma patients were enrolled, including 75.5% ( n=151) males and 24.5% ( n=49) females.The patients aged (8.20±1.81) years. Results:The median total IgE level of the 200 patients was 513.5 (24.4-11 600.0) IU/mL.Their median treatment time with Omalizumab was 112 (1-666) days.Their first dose of Omalizumab was 300 (150-600) mg.Of the 200 cases, 114 cases (57.0%) followed the first Omalizumab dosage recommended in the instruction.After 4-6 months of Omalizumab treatment, 88.5% of the patients enrolled ( n=117) responded to Omalizumab.After 4 weeks of treatment with Omalizumab, asthma was well-controlled, with an increased C-ACT score [from (22.70±3.70) points to (18.90±3.74) points at baseline]. Four-six months after Omalizumab administration, the annual rate of moderate-to-severe asthma exacerbation had a reduction of (2.00±5.68) per patient year( t=4.702 5, P<0.001), the median ICS daily dose was lowered [0 (0-240) μg vs. 160 (50-4 000) μg at baseline] ( P<0.001), the PAQLQ score was improved [(154.90±8.57) points vs. (122.80±27.15) points at baseline], and the forced expiratory volume in one second % predicted (FEV 1%pred) was increased [(92.80±10.50)% vs. (89.70±18.17)% at baseline]. In patients with available evaluations for comorbidities, including allergic rhinitis, atopic dermatitis or eczema, urticaria, allergic conjunctivitis and sinusitis, 92.8%-100.0% showed improved symptoms.A total of 124 AE were reported in 58 (29.0%) of the 200 patients, and the annual incidence was 0(0-15.1) per patient year.In 53 patients who suffered AE, 44 patients (83.0%) and 9 patients (17.0%) reported mild and moderate AE, respectively.No severe AE were observed in patients.The annual incidence of SAE was 0(0-1.9) per patient year.Most common drug-related AE were abdominal pain (2 patients, 1.0%) and fever (2 patients, 1.0%). No patient withdrew Omalizumab due to AE. Conclusions:Omalizumab shows good effectiveness and safety for the treatment of asthma in children.It can reduce the moderate-to-severe asthma exacerbation rate, reduce the ICS dose, improve asthma control levels, and improve lung functions and quality of life of patients.

ObjectiveTo investigate the abnormal changes of gray matter structure covariant network in post-stroke aphasia (PSA) patients. MethodsFrom June, 2019 to March, 2022, 15 PSA patients (patient group) from Dongzhimen Hospital, Beijing University of Chinese Medicine and Beijing Bo'ai Hospital were recruited, as well as 15 healthy subjects (control group). Their brain structure magnetic resonance imaging data were collected. The brain covariant network was constructed based on gray matter volume correlation, and graph theory analysis method was used to evaluate the global and node network level topology properties of structural covariant network. The differences of gray matter covariant network properties between patients and controls were compared. ResultsThere was no significant difference in the global network level topology properties between two groups (P > 0.05). At the nodal level, compared with the control group, the betweenness decreased in the right middle frontal gyrus, right posterior cingulate gyrus, right amygdala, left middle occipital gyrus, and increased in the right inferior frontal gyrus and the right suboccipital gyrus of the insula operculum (P < 0.05); the node degree decreased in the left superior frontal gyrus, left anterior cingulate and paracingulate gyrus, left hippocampus and left amygdala, while it increased in the right inferior frontal gyrus, left supplementary motor area, right superior occipital gyrus, right inferior occipital gyrus, and right lentiform pallidus (P < 0.05); the node efficiency decreased in the left anterior cingulate and paracingulate gyrus, left hippocampus, left amygdala, left temporal pole: superior temporal gyrus, and increased in the inferior frontal gyrus of right insula, left supplementary motor area and right suboccipital gyrus (P < 0.05). ConclusionThe abnormal reduction of node network properties in some brain regions in the left hemisphere of PSA patients may be a characteristic structural covariation pattern, and there may be some compensation in the right hemisphere of the structural network in some brain regions.

Objective:To analyze the influences of leukocytes on improving blood glucose control in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and periodontitis after periodontal mechanical therapy.Methods:Thirty-five patients visiting Peking University Third Hospital from March 2011 to August 2012, as well as thirty-four patients visiting Peking University School and Hospital of Stomatology from March 2011 to August 2012 and December 2016 to December 2018 were selected in this research. These subjects were non-smokers, and with moderate to severe chronic periodontitis and T2DM. The full set of periodontal examinations including probing depth (PD), attachment loss (AL), bleeding index (BI) and plaque index (PLI) were conducted. Besides, counts of white blood cells (WBC), parameters of glucose and lipids metabolites such as fasting blood glucose (FBG), glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA 1c), total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), high density lipoprotein (HDL) and low density lipoprotein (LDL) in serum were examined before treatment. Then, oral hygiene instruction, scaling and root planing (SRP) were carried out. Three months after SRP, the baseline examinations were repeated in all patients. According to the baseline leukocyte counts, the patients were divided into subgroups: low WBC group (WBC<6.19×10 9/L) and high WBC group (WBC≥6.19×10 9/L). Paired t-test for comparison of changes after treatment, analysis of co-variance for comparing the intervention effects between subgroups, and multifactor Logistic regression analysis were performed. Results:Three months after SRP, all periodontal indexes were significantly improved in both groups. Leukocyte counts decreased significantly in high WBC group (6.89±1.53 vs. 7.64±1.51, P=0.008). In high WBC group, HbA 1c (7.18±1.09 vs. 7.67±1.35, P=0.001) and LDL (2.67±0.85 vs. 3.28±0.76, P=0.042) decreased significantly, while there were no such differences in low WBC group. Influence of leukocyte level on HbA 1c ( OR=0.12, P=0.038) and LDL ( OR=0.15, P=0.001) improvement was statistically significant. Hierarchical analysis showed such improvement notably perform in female [HbA 1c ( OR=0.30, P=0.021), LDL ( OR=0.34, P=0.001)] and severe periodontitis group [HbA 1c ( OR=0.15, P=0.025), LDL ( OR=0.24, P=0.017)]. Through interaction test, female and leukocyte counts at baseline had relative excess risk affecting the effect of periodontal intervention on HbA 1c ( P=0.036) and LDL ( P=0.005). Conclusions:SRP could significantly improve the blood glucose and lipid control in patients who had T2DM and chronic periodontitis with relative higher leukocytes level. Female patients with severe periodontitis showed more obviously effects.

Circular RNA is a special kind of endogenous non-coding RNA which is widely existing in eukaryotic cells. More studies confirmed that most circRNAs were produced in the process of RNA shearing and played a vital role in the occurrence and development of many diseases. Though there was not much research on circRNAs related to orthopaedic diseases in recent years, study found that circRNAs played a great significant role in the pathogenesis, diagnosis, target therapy of degenerative diseases(osteoarthritis, lumbar degenerative disease), metabolic diseases(osteoporosis) and motor system tumor(osteosarcoma). This study summarizes the research progress of circRNAs in orthopaedic diseases.

OBJECTIVE: To screen potential plasma protein biomarkers for the progression of cervical precancerous lesions into cervical carcinoma and analyze their functions. METHODS: Plasma samples obtained from healthy control subjects, patients with low-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (LSIL), high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (HSIL), cervical cancer (CC), and patients with CC after treatment were enriched for low-abundance proteins for liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) analysis. The MS data of the samples were analyzed using Discoverer 2.2 software, and the differential proteins (peptide coverage ≥20%, unique peptides≥2) were screened by comparison of LSIL, HSIL and CC groups against the control group followed by verification using target proteomics technology. Protein function enrichment and coexpression analyses were carried out to explore the role of the differentially expressed proteins as potential biomarkers and their pathological mechanisms. RESULTS: Compared with the control group, both LSIL group and HSIL group showed 9 differential proteins; 5 differentially expressed proteins were identified in CC group. The proteins ORM2 and HPR showed obvious differential expressions in LSIL and HSIL groups compared with the control group, and could serve as potential biomarkers for the progression of cervical carcinoma. The expression of F9 increased consistently with the lesion progression from LSIL to HSIL and CC, suggesting its value as a potential biomarker for the progression of cervical cancer. CFI and AFM protein levels were obviously decreased in treated patients with CC compared with the patients before treatment, indicating their predictive value for the therapeutic efficacy. Protein function enrichment analysis showed that all these differentially expressed proteins were associated with the complement system and the coagulation cascades pathway. CONCLUSIONS We identified 5 new protein biomarkers (F9, CFI, AFM, HPR, and ORM2) for cervical precancerous lesions and for prognostic evaluation of CC, and combined detection of these biomarkers may help in the evaluation of the development and progression of CC and also in improving the diagnostic sensitivity and specificity of cervical lesions.

Purpose To study the value of contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) quantitative technique in evaluating the perfusion of hepatic microcirculation in acute hemorrhagic shock (HS),and to investigate the value of CEUS quantitative analysis in HS diagnosis and treatment.Materials and Methods Sixty healthy adult New Zealand white rabbits of either gender were randomly divided into three groups for establishing mild,moderate and severe HS models,respectively.Before modeling and 30 min after stable modeling,liver CEUS examination was performed,and the original images were stored.Blood test of lactic acid,liver function,and liver biopsy for pathological examination were conducted after CEUS.Finally,the arrival time (AT),time to peak (TTP),rising time (RT),peak intensity (PI) and area under the curve (AUC) were analyzed offiine.Results Compared with pre-modeling,AUC decreased in mild HS group (P＜0.05);TTP and RT were delayed,but PI and AUC decreased in moderate and severe HS groups (all P＜0.05);AT was delayed in severe HS group (P＜0.05).The differences of TTP,RT,PI and AUC between the groups of mild,moderate and severe HS were significant (P＜0.05).Compared with pre-modeling,lactic acid in three HS groups increased significantly,the liver function indexes were changed to different degrees,and the degree of liver cell pathological changes was closely related to the degree of HS.Conclusion CEUS can quantitatively evaluate the changes of hepatic microcirculation induced by HS at different degrees.

Pttrpose Contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) is a noninvasive technique that can monitor the blood perfusion of organs.The study aims to discuss the value of CEUS in quantitative analysis of renal microcirculation during resuscitation after hemorrhagic shock (HS).Materials and Methods Forty healthy New Zealand white rabbits were randomly divided into five groups in this prospective study.One group was selected as normal control group (T1),the other four groups were established HS model by using the modified Wiggers's method;one of the four HS groups was taken as shock group (T2),and the other three HS groups were named as 2 h group (T3),6 h group (T4),and 24 h group (T5) according to resuscitation time.CEUS was used to observe the rabbits' renal perfusion and the perfusion parameters were recorded including amplitude of peak intensity (A),time to peak (TTP),area under curve (AUC) and curve rising slope rate (Grad);the correlation of these parameters with histological examination was analyzed.Results Compared with T1 group,The TTP ofT2 group prolonged and the A,AUC and Grad decreased (P＜0.05);the HS model was established successfully.Compared with T2 group,the A,AUC and Grad of T3,T4 groups increased (P＜0.05),but the TTP of T3,T4 groups was not shortened (P＞0.05).The above parameters were all significantly different between T5 group and T2 group (P＜0.05),but the differences did not exist between T5 and T1 groups (P＞0.05),which indicated that the perfusion parameters gradually returned to normal level after resuscitation.The histological staining demonstrated that the renal tubular epithelial cell swelling and vascular congestion gradually restored after resuscitation.Conclusion CEUS can quantitatively assess renal perfusion changes during resuscitation as a noninvasive monitor.

Purpose Contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) guided percutaneous puncture injection of hemostatic agents or biological glue is good for the control of closed renal trauma,but there are also some shortcomings.This study aims to explore the effect of CEUS guided percutaneous puncture injection of hemostatic agent and xanthan gum on the control of closed renal trauma hemorrhage.Materials and Methods Sixteen healthy white rabbits were established closed renal trauma models of active bleeding,and were randomly divided into two groups,puncture and laparotomy group.The puncture group was treated with CEUS guided percutaneous injection of snake venom enzyme and biological glue into the active renal hemorrhage.The laparotomy group was treated with traditional surgical suture.The therapeutic effect of two groups was evaluated after operation.The treatment time was recorded,and the renal function was measured every week after the operation.The pathological examination of the wound tissue was performed 1 month after operation.Results Two groups were successful hemostasis.The operation time of puncture group and open group was (179 ± 30) s and (298 ± 30) s,respectively,and the difference was statistically significant (P＜0.05).After operation,the serum creatinine of the puncture group was lower than that of the laparotomy group,and the difference was statistically significant (P＜0.05).The recovery of renal function of the puncture group was faster than that of the laparotomy group,and the renal wound healing was better than that of the laparotomy group.Conclusion The effect of CEUS guided percutaneous puncture injection of snake venom enzyme combined with biological glue in the treatment of closed renal trauma hemorrhage is good,which is a new method worth recommending for easy operation,small damage and quick recovery.

Purpose To investigate the value of contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) in monitoring hepatic parenchymal perfusion quantitatively during resuscitation after hemorrhagic shock (HS).Materials and Methods Forty-five labeled rabbits were randomly divided into five groups.One group was normal control group,and the other four groups were established reversible HS modes by using modified Wiggers method.In the four model groups,one group was chosen as the shock group,and the other three groups received colloid (hydroxyethyl starch) for resuscitation.The three resuscitation groups were named as 1 h group,4 h group,24 h group according to resuscitation time.The arterial blood was collected for testing blood lactic acid (LAC) in each group.The CEUS was performed to form time-intensity curve (TIC) for quantitative analysis.At the end of the experiment,the rabbits were sacrificed and the liver tissues were examined for pathology.Results Compared with the normal control group,the arrival time (AT) and time to peak (TTP) of the shock group were significantly prolonged,and the peak intensity (PI) and area under curve (AUC) of the shock group decreased,all with significant difference (all P＜0.05);in the 1 h resuscitation group,the PI and AUC increased,and the AT decreased,all with significant difference (all P＜0.05);in the 4 h and 24 h resuscitation group,the PI and AUC increased,and the AT and TTP decreased,but all without significant difference (all P＞0.05).Compared with the shock group,the PI and AUC of the 1 h resuscitation group increased,and the AT of 1 h resuscitation group decreased,all with significant difference (all P＜0.05);all the tested parameters of the 4 h and 24 h resuscitation group were significant different (P＜0.05).Conclusion CEUS can quantitatively evaluate the changes of hepatic parenchymal perfusion during HS resuscitation,which has a certain reference for clinical treatment.
