As a glucocorticoid drug with wide clinical application, triamcinolone acetonide can be administered by multiple routes, such as eye, nose, joint cavity, and skin, for the treatment of various local diseases such as arthritis, macular edema, rhinitis, and urticaria. As a drug with extremely low solubility in water, the dose form of triamcinolone acetonide is closely correlated with administration route and site. The dosage form of triamcinolone acetonide administered via injection(including joint cavity injection, vitreous injection, suprachoroidal injection, intramuscular injection) is mainly suspension, and the representative drugs include Kenalog-40®, Zilretta®, Triesence®, Xipere®, etc.; the dosage forms of nasal mucosal administration are mostly sprays, and the representative drug is Nasacort®; the dosage forms of oral mucosal administration are mostly patches, ointments and creams, and the representative drug is Oracort®; the dosage forms for transdermal administration are mostly ointments, creams and lotions, and the representative drugs include Trianex®, Teva-Triacomb®, etc. At present, the research on dosage forms of triamcinolone acetonide by various administration routes mainly focuses on the construction of delivery carriers, the addition of cosolvents or the use of new delivery tools.

【Objective】 To investigate the value of three hemolysis tests and carboxyhemoglobin (COHb) level in the diagnosis of hemolytic disease of the fetus and newborn (HDFN). 【Methods】 From January 1, 2019 to December 31, 2022, the neonates hospitalized in the Department of Neonatology of Hebei Provincial Children's Hospital with suspected hemolytic disease who had serological testing were retrospectively enrolled in the study. They were distributed into HDFN group and non-HDFN group according to the final diagnosis. Their clinical and laboratory data were collected and analyzed, and the COHb level was detected by blood gas analyzer. 【Results】 A total of 378 neonates with HDFN and 217 neonates without HDFN were included in the study. Most of the neonates in HDFN group were full-term infants (348/378, 92.1%), with median gestational age of 39.1 (38.3, 40.0) weeks. Three hundred and fifty-four cases (354/378, 93.7%) were ABO-HDFN and the rest were Rh HDFN. There were significant differences in the level of serum total bilirubin, hemoglobin, COHb and reticulocyte percentage at admission between the two groups(P<0.05). The positive rate of three hemolysis tests in HDFN group decreased with the increase of the days after birth. The highest positive rate (more than 80%) was observed within 2 days after birth. Correlation analysis showed a negative relationship between the COHb level and the age (r

Persistent Chlamydia trachomatis urogenital tract infection may lead to pelvic inflammatory disease, ectopic pregnancy and tubal infertility in women, and urethritis, epididymitis and other complications in men, which is a hotspot and chanllenge in disease control at home and abroad. In recent years, many researches have shown that Chlamydia trachomatis aberrant reticulate body may be one of the major causes of persistent infection. This review summarized the genomic and proteomic characteristics of Chlamydia trachomatis aberrant reticulate body induced under various conditions in vitro, aiming to elucidating its role in antimicrobial resistance. The identification of persistent infection-related factors, providing new diagnostic targets for the detection of subclinically refractory long-term infections, is a prerequisite for finding appropriate methods to diagnose and treat the complications of Chlamydia trachomatis infection and is crucial for identifying new targets in the post-genomic era.

Background Acute drug poisonings are increasing year by year and have become the leading cause of acute poisoning in Shanghai in recent years, and the related prevention and control work is faced with a tough situation. Objective To understand the composition of drugs leading to acute poisonings and describe the epidemiological tendency of reported acute drug poisonings in Shanghai. Methods We collected registered acute drug poisoning case information from the Shanghai Health Information System under Shanghai Health Statistics Center, including demographic characteristics and clinical diagnosis. There were totally 86476 cases reported from 2019 to 2021. The distributions of drugs and victims were described by year. Incidence tendency of acute drug poisonings was analyzed by chi-square test and the analysis focused on analgesic, hypnotics, and antidepressant drug-associated poisonings. Spatial autocorrelation analysis was performed by GeoDa1.20 through calculating global and local Moran's I. Results There was an ascendant tendency in both case count (22132 cases in 2019, 29071 cases in 2020, and 35273 cases in 2021) and crude morbidity (0.89‰ in 2019, 1.21‰ in 2020, and 1.46‰ in 2021) of patients who received outpatient service or emergency treatment for acute drug poisonings from 2019 to 2021 in Shanghai. The top 3 kinds of acute poisoning drugs were analgesics, hypnotics, and antidepressants. The morbidity rates of acute drug poisonings associated with antidepressants (χ2=2700.15, P<0.05) and analgesics (χ2=2294.01, P<0.05) increased year by year. The leading 3 kinds of drugs associated with acute drug poisonings in the same age group were similar. Analgesics showed high frequency staying in the top 3 acute poisoning drugs in most age groups for the 3 years (the highest morbidity was 0.84‰ in male or 1.07‰ in female). Antidepressants were in the top 3 acute poisoning drugs in the under 59 years age groups for the 3 years (male morbidity rate was 0.12‰-0.44‰, and female morbidity rate was 0.06‰-0.45‰). Hypnotics were in the top 3 acute poisoning drugs in the ≥ 18 years age groups for the 3 years (morbidity rate in male was 0.28‰-0.98‰, and morbidity rate in female was 0.21‰-0.92‰). Cardiovascular drugs were in the top 3 acute poisoning drugs in the > 60 years age group for the 3 years (male morbidity rate was 0.40‰-1.03‰, and female morbidity rate was 0.66‰-0.81‰). Regarding the causes of poisonings, accidental poisoning and exposure was the main cause in the ≤ 17 years groups (male constituent ratio was 57.64%-67.12%, and female constituent ratio was 55.27%-68.27%); suicide (male constituent ratio was 20.28%-43.51%, and female constituent ratio was 25.18%-52.02%) had a higher percentage than accidental poisoning and exposure (male constituent ratio was 16.97%-23.62%, and female constituent ratio was 12.76%-17.63%) in the 18-59 years age groups; accidental poisoning and exposure (male constituent ratio was 24.38%-45.18%, and female constituent ratio was 32.69%-38.11%) had a higher percentage than suicide (male constituent ratio was 12.35%-14.02%, and female constituent ratio was 11.92%-12.31%) in the > 60 years age group. The spatial autocorrelation analysis showed that the distribution of acute poisoning cases caused by analgesics, hypnotics, or antidepressants was not random. It was mostly positive spatial clustering. The high-morbidity area was always in the outer-ring circle, especially in Xuhui, Changning, and Jing'an districts, which suggested a high-high cluster pattern. Conclusion In view of the increasing morbidity rate of acute drug poisoning cases in Shanghai in this study, it is urgent to take prevention and control actions. We should plan further studies and different strategies toward different victims with distinct drug poisoning characteristics and areas with high morbidity rates.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and tolerability of the dual therapy of dolutegravir (DTG) plus lamivudine (3TC) as a switch simplified strategy in treatment-experienced human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)/acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) patients.Methods:Treatment-experienced HIV/AIDS patients who switched to a dual therapy containing DTG (50 mg, once daily) plus 3TC (300 mg, once daily) were included in Beijing You′an Hospital, Capital Medical University from September 2016 to May 2019. HIV RNA, CD4 + T lymphocyte count, blood lipid indexes, renal function indexes were collected when patients changed the treatment regimen (baseline) and after 48 weeks of treatment. Efficacy (HIV RNA<50 copies/mL) and safety of the dual therapy were analyzed. Statistical comparisons were performed using the Wilcoxon matched-pairs signed rank test. Results:The reasons for 33 patients switching the treatment regimen were virologic failure (four cases, 12.1%), simplification of regimen (11 cases, 33.3%), and drug toxicity (18 cases, 54.5%). The patients were treated with anti-retroviral therapy (ART) for 2.13 (1.05, 4.23) years before regimens switching. Twenty-nine (87.9%) patients were virologically suppressed at baseline, and four (12.1%) patients were virological failure. After switching to DTG plus 3TC, all 33 patients showed HIV RNA<50 copies/mL after 48 weeks of treatment. The baseline CD4 + T lymphocyte count was 543 (363, 595)/μL. After switching the treatment regimens for 48 weeks, CD4 + T lymphocyte count was significantly increased to 625 (455, 651)/μL, and the difference was statistically significant ( Z=3.14, P=0.002). Compared with baseline, low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol was increased after 48 weeks of treatment (2.35(1.80, 3.08) mmol/L vs 3.12(2.74, 3.87) mmol/L), while triglyceride (2.21(1.27, 4.37) mmol/L vs 1.61(1.20, 2.22) mmol/L), the ratio of total cholesterol to high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (5.02 (4.13, 6.40) vs 4.70 (3.55, 5.35)) and estimated glomerular filtration rate (106.4(78.2, 118.2) mL/(min·1.73 m 2) vs 88.6 (75.7, 107.9) mL/(min·1.73 m 2)) were decreased. The differences were all statistically significant ( Z=4.89, 2.37, 2.09 and 2.83, respectively, all P<0.050). No patient discontinued due to adverse events. Conclusions:The use of dual therapy containing DTG and 3TC is effective and well-tolerated in treatment-experienced HIV/AIDS patients under any prior ART without significant adverse events.

The Brodmann area(BA)-based map is one of the most widely used cortical maps for studies of human brain functions and in clinical practice;however,the molecular architecture of BAs remains unknown.The present study provided a global multiregional proteomic map of the human cerebral cortex by analyzing 29 BAs.These 29 BAs were grouped into 6 clusters based on similarities in proteomic patterns:the motor and sensory cluster,vision cluster,auditory and Broca's area cluster,Wernicke's area cluster,cingulate cortex cluster,and heterogeneous function cluster.We identified 474 cluster-specific and 134 BA-specific signature proteins whose functions are closely associated with specialized functions and disease vulnerability of the corresponding clus-ter or BA.The findings of the present study could provide explanations for the functional connec-tions between the anterior cingulate cortex and sensorimotor cortex and for anxiety-related function in the sensorimotor cortex.The brain transcriptome and proteome comparison indicates that they both could reflect the function of cerebral cortex,but show different characteristics.These pro-teomic data are publicly available at the Human Brain Proteome Atlas(www.brain-omics.com).Our results may enhance our understanding of the molecular basis of brain functions and provide an important resource to support human brain research.

Background::Single-tablet regimen (STR) provides a convenient once-daily regimen for the prevention of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection. Here, we investigated the safety and tolerability of coformulated bictegravir/emtricitabine/tenofovir alafenamide (BIC/FTC/TAF) as a three-drug, STR for post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) in Chinese individuals.Methods::This was a prospective, open-label, single-arm trial conducted in a sexually transmitted diseases and acquired immunodeficiency syndrome clinic of a tertiary hospital in Beijing, China. Adults requiring PEP were prescribed BIC/FTC/TAF one pill once a day for 28 days. Clinical and laboratory data were collected and analyzed at baseline, weeks 2, 4, 8, 12, and 24.Results::Of 112 participants enrolled in the study, 109 (97.3%) were male and the mean age was 30 ± 8 years. PEP completion was 96.4% (95% confidence interval: 91.1-99.0%). Two participants stopped PEP after 2 days because the source partner was identified as HIV uninfected. One participant was excluded due to hepatitis B virus infection according to the exclusion criteria. One discontinued due to the participant’s decision. No participant acquired HIV through week 24. Adherence was 98.9% (standard deviation [SD]: 3.3%) by self-reporting and 98.5% (SD: 3.5%) by pill count. Only five participants experienced mild clinical adverse events attributed to the study drug (including headache, diarrhea, and nausea) and four participants had elevated serum creatinine (grade 1).Conclusions::A once daily, STR of BIC/FTC/TAF used as PEP was safe and well-tolerated with a high rate of completion and adherence in Chinese. BIC/FTC/TAF may be a good option for PEP.Trial Registration::ChiCTR.org.cn, ChiCTR2100048080
