Thrombocytopenia is one of the common complications with the hematologic system in patients with chronic liver disease, which often causes poor quality of life and high risk of bleeding, thereby affecting their diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis. Platelet transfusion can improve the patient's declining platelet count to a certain extent, but it has problems such as high price and being easy to cause immune rejection. Thrombopoietin (TPO), as an important cytokine that affects platelet production, can bind to TPO receptors and activate megakaryocytes to produce platelets. Lusutrombopag is a newly developed small-molecule TPO receptor agonist that can induce bone marrow progenitor cells to differentiate into megakaryocytes and increase platelet production, posing characteristics of oral convenience, safety and effectiveness; thus, it has been used in many countries and regions for the treatment of patients with chronic liver diseases concurrent with thrombocytopenia. Herein, the pharmacological features and clinical research are reviewed.

Objective:To explore the clinical characteristics and risk factors of pediatric kidney transplantation (KT).Methods:From January 1, 2010 to September 30, 2022, retrospective analysis was performed for the relevant clinical data of 81 pediatric recipients of primary KT at Organ Transplant Center of Shanghai Changzheng Hospital. The occurrences of acute rejection (AR) ,delayed graft function (DGF), infection, myelosuppression, tumor and other complications were observed within 1 year post-KT. They were grouped according to whether or not AR/DGF occurred. Univariate analysis speculated the effect of AR and DGF on renal function at 1 year after transplantation. Binary Logistic regression was employed for examining the risk factors related to AR/DGF.Results:During follow-ups, transplanted kidney was removed due to an embolization of renal vessels and dialysis resumed (n= 5). One child had failed graft due to the recurrence of original disease and dialysis resumed. The remaining 75 children had an excellent recovery of graft function. At the end of follow-ups, survival for transplant recipients and transplanted kidneys was 100% (81/81 ) and 92.6% (75/81) respectively. 23 patients (28.4%) developed DGF, including 20 child recipients of C-I donors. Among DGF recipients, 21 (91.3%) were immune induced with anti-CD25 humanized monoclonal antibody and 2 (8.7 %) with porcine antihuman lymphocyte immunoglobulin (pALG). Within the first year post-KT, 13 patients (16.1%) developed AR, including 11 child recipients of C-I donors. Induction was made with anti-CD25 humanized monoclonal antibody (n=8), pALG (n=4) and anti-human T lymphocyte rabbit immunoglobulin (n=1). And 12 cases were reversed with MP (methylprednisolone) shock therapy while another ineffective case was rescued by an intravenous infusion of rATG (rabbit anti-human thymocyte immunoglobulin). During postoperative follow-ups, 14 (17.3 %) KT recipients had an onset of pulmonary infection (n=7), upper respiratory tract infection (n=3), urinary tract infection (n=5), gastrointestinal infection (n=2) and abdominal cavity infection (n=1). The causative pathogens were bacteria (n=14) and viruses (n=4). Among 7 cases (8.6%) of myelosuppression, there were leukopenia (n=6) and thrombocytopenia (n=1 ). During 1-year follow-ups, no malignancy occurred. At the last follow-up, blood creatinine was (72.79±21.07) μmol/L in non-AR/DGF recipients. For AR/DGF recipients, blood creatinine levels were (68.83±10.78) and (74.20±18.70) μmol/L. There was no significant inter-group difference ( F=0.14, P=0.87). In groups with and without DGF, the incidence of bone marrow suppression in the children with DGF was significantly higher (21. 74 %) than that in the untreated group (3.45%), with a statistically significant difference ( P=0.02). However, there was no statistically significant difference in the age, sex, donor source, infection, and types of immune-induced drugs in AR, DGF occurrence and no occurrence group. logistic Regression analysis showed that immunoinduction therapy with lymphocyte inhibitor ( OR=0.074, 95 %CI: 0.009-0.0643, P=0.018) and bone marrow suppression ( OR=0.045, 95%CI: 0.004-0.515, P=0.013) were risk factors for DGF. Conclusion:KT in children may obtain decent outcomes. Immunoinduction therapy with lymphocyte inhibitors and occurrence of myelosuppression are risk factors for postoperative DGF. The occurrence of AR/DGF in early postoperative period does not affect the level of kidney function in children at 1 year post-KT. It is recommended to closely follow up and accumulate experiences for optimizing long-term outcomes.

OBJECTIVE To compare t he diff erences of the fingerprint and in vitro antioxidant activity between decoction pieces of Polygonum cuspidatum by integrated technology of habitat processing and processing (short for IPDP )and traditional processing decoction pieces (short for TPDP ). METHODS Ten batches of IPDP and ten batches of TPDP were prepared by integrated technology and traditional technology ,respectively. HPLC method was used to establish and compare the fingerprints of IPDP and TPDP. The scavenging rates of DPPH free radical ,ABTS free radical ,superoxide free radical and hydroxyl free radical and reducing activity of Fe 3+ were detected for IPDP and TPDP. In vitro antioxidant activities were compared between IPDP and TPDP. RESULTS There were 11 common peaks in the fingerprints of IPDP and TPDP ,among which 17 came from IPDP and 13 came from TPDP. The peak heights of peak 6(polydatin)and peak 15(emodin-8-O-β-D-glucoside)in IPDP were significantly higher than those in the TPDP ,and the peak heights of peak 13(resveratrol),peak 17(emodin)and peak 19(physcion)in the TPDP were significantly higher than those in the IPDP. The results of in vitro antioxidant test showed that IPDP and TPDP had a certain scavenging capacity on DPPH free radical ,ABTS free radical ,superoxide free radical and hydroxyl free radicals ,and also had a certain reducing capacity on Fe 3+. CONCLUSIONS The integrated processing technology of P. cuspidatum has a good retention effect on the glycosides in P. cuspidatum ,and the in vitro antioxidant activity of IPDP is stronger than that of TPDP.

ObjectiveTo compare the consistency and difference between the integrated decoction pieces (IDP) and traditional decoction pieces (TDP) of Pinelliae Rhizoma Praeparatum cum Zingibere et Alumine (PRPZA) in the component content and pharmacological effect, so as to explain the rationality of the integrated production of PRPZA. MethodThin layer chromatography (TLC), extract determination, ultraviolet spectrophotometry and high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) were used to analyze and determine the TLC identification, the contents of water-soluble extract, alum residue, needle-like calcium oxalate crystal, protein, total alkaloids, polysaccharides and three nucleosides (inosine, guanosine and adenosine) of IDP and TDP of PRPZA, and the statistical comparison was made. The anti-inflammatory effect and irritation of IDP and TDP of PRPZA were compared by xylene-induced mouse auricle swelling test and rabbit conjunctival irritation test. ResultCompared with the TDP of PRPZA, the contents of alum residue, needle-like calcium oxalate crystal, protein, polysaccharides, inosine, guanosine and the total amount of three nucleosides in the IDP of PRPZA decreased by 16.95%, 21.27%, 23.78%, 4.74%, 52.12%, 0.24% and 26.04%, the contents of water-soluble extract, total alkaloids and adenosine increased by 7.62%, 114.83% and 125.42%, respectively. IDP and TDP of PRPZA had obvious inhibitory effects on ear edema in mice, but there was no significant difference between them, indicating that the anti-inflammatory effect was consistent. The two decoction pieces of PRPZA had no irritation to the conjunctiva of rabbits, and the difference was not statistically significant between them, suggesting that the safety was similar. ConclusionThere is a certain difference in the component content between the IDP and the TDP of PRPZA, but their anti-inflammatory and irritant effects are similar, and the quality of IDP is slightly better than TDP, which provides a reference for the industrial production and clinical application of the IDP of PRPZA.

Objective:To explore the clinical characteristics, diagnosis and treatment of cryptococcal infection after renal transplantation.Methods:The clinical data were analyzed retrospectively for 17 hospitalized cases of cryptococcal infection after kidney transplantation from January 2003 to December 2019. The relevant parameters included site of infection, clinical manifestations, complications, comorbidities, treatments and outcomes. The average time to infection after transplantation was (7.9±5.4) years, the median baseline level of creatinine was 137(75-741) μmol/L. Concurrent conditions included hypertension (n=15, 88.2%), diabetes (n=6, 35.3%) and chronic hepatitis (n=9, 52.9%). The most common site of infection was central nervous system (88.2%), followed by lungs (29.4%) and skin (17.6%).Results:The clinical manifestations were diverse. Most patients received amphotericin B liposome and/or fluconazole as an initial option. The outcomes were curing (n=17, 58.8%), death from cryptococcal infection (n=5, 29.4%), partial relief (n=1, 5.9%) and stable disease (n=1, 5.9%). Among 10 curative cases, 2 cases died from other causes and 4 cases returned to hemodialysis with graft loss.Conclusions:Cryptococcosis is typically a late-occurring infection in kidney transplant recipients. Many factors, such as complications, nonstandard antifungal treatment, immune dysbalance, have adverse prognoses. Strengthening follow-ups, dealing with complications, validating the diagnosis early, interdepartmental cooperations, standardizing antifungal therapy and balancing immune status may improve the outcomes of cryptococcosis after kidney transplantation.
