Objective: To construct a prediction model for preeclampsia (PE) risk in twin-pregnant women, so as to provide the basis for early screening and prevention of PE. Methods: A total of 467 twin-pregnant women who underwent prenatal examination and delivered at Huzhou Maternal and Child Health Hospital were selected. Sixty cases with preeclampsia (PE) were included in the case group, and 60 women without PE were included in the control group. General information, blood biochemical indicators and uterine artery resistance index (UtA-RI) were collected. A logistic regression model was used to screen predictive factors and establish a nomogram. The Bootstrap method was performed for the internal validation; the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, calibration curve and decision curve analysis were employed to evaluate the discrimination, calibration and clinical utility of the nomogram, respectively. Results: In the case group, there were 47 individuals (78.33%) aged younger than 35 years, 21 individuals (35.00%) with pre-pregnancy body mass index (BMI) of 25 kg/m2 and above, and 33 individuals (55.00%) with in vitro fertilization. In the control group, there were 57 individuals (95.00%) aged younger than 35 years, 8 individuals (13.33%) with pre-pregnancy BMI of 25 kg/m2 and above, and 39 individuals (65.00%) with natural pregnancy. Multivariable logistic regression analysis identified age, pre-pregnancy BMI, method of conception, placental growth factor (PLGF) and UtA-RI as risk prediction factors for PE in twin-pregnant women. The established nomogram had an area under the ROC curve of 0.827 (95%CI: 0.755-0.899), a sensitivity of 0.767, a specificity of 0.733, a good discrimination and calibration, and a relatively high clinical net benefit. Conclusion The nomogram established by age, pre-pregnancy BMI, method of conception, PLGF and UtA-RI has a good predictive value for the risk of PE in twin-pregnant women.

Viral hepatitis is an important cause of liver cirrhosis and liver cancer， which has become a major public health problem in the world. Traditional Chinese medicine has unique advantages in treating viral hepatitis， which can inhibit virus replication and enhance immunity. It can effectively prevent liver fibrosis and canceration， improving liver function and symptoms significantly with definite clinical curative effects， a high level of safety， and seldom drug resistance. In addition， it reduces the side effects of western medicine， achieving the effect of synergy and attenuation while reducing the recurrence rate of patients after drug withdrawal. Attention has been paid to the research on the treatment of viral hepatitis with traditional Chinese medicine， and great progress has been made in experimental research and clinical practice. In this paper， the research progress of traditional Chinese medicine in the treatment of viral hepatitis at home and abroad in recent five years was systematically reviewed. Modern research has confirmed that traditional Chinese medicine can play a role in the treatment of viral hepatitis by directly or indirectly inhibiting the virus， anti-inflammatory， anti-fibrosis， anti-oxidation， regulating immunity， regulating autophagy， and other signal pathways. In clinics， traditional Chinese medicine compound or combined with western medicine is often adopted to ameliorate the clinical symptoms of patients such as fatigue and loss of appetite， improve the immune mechanism of the body， enhance the antiviral ability， shorten the treatment course of patients and improve their quality of life. The research provides a reference for pharmacological research， clinical research， and new drug development for viral hepatitis.

ObjectiveTo explore the clinical features and causative genes of short stature children with unknown etiology， providing evidence for precise clinical diagnosis and treatment. MethodsThe study recruited children with suspected but undiagnosed short stature from the pediatric endocrinology department in our hospital between January 2018 and August 2022. A retrospective analysis was performed on the clinical manifestations， laboratory test and whole exome sequencing （WES） results. Causative genes were classified and analyzed according to different pathogenic mechanisms. ResultsA total of 48 children （30 boys and 18 girls） were enrolled， aged 7.73 ± 3.97 years， with a height standard deviation score （ HtSDS） of -3.63 ± 1.67. Of the patients， 33 （68.8%） suffered from facial anomalies， 31 （64.6%） from skeletal abnormalities， 26 ［54.2%， 61.5% of whom born small for gestational age （SGA）］ from perinatal abnormalities， 24 ［50.0%， 87.5% of whom with growth hormone （GH） peak concentration below normal］ from endocrine disorders and 21（43.8%） had a family history of short stature. Laboratory tests showed that GH peak concentration following stimulation test was （9.72 ± 7.25） ng/mL， IGF-1 standard deviation score was -0.82 ± 1.42， the difference between bone age and chronological age was -0.93 ± 1.39 years. Of the 25 cases with mutant genes found by WES， 14 （56.0%） had pathogenic mutation， 6 （24.0%） likely pathogenic mutation， and 5 （20.0%） mutation of uncertain significance. Pathogenic and likely pathogenic variants were identified in 14 genes， including 10 affecting intracellular signaling pathways （PTPN11， RAF1， RIT1， ARID1B， ANKRD11， CSNK2A1， SRCAP， CUL7， SMAD4 and FAM111A） and 4 affecting extracellular matrix （ECM） components or functions （ACAN， FBN1， COL10A1 and COMP）. ConclusionsA rare monogenic disease should be considered as the possible etiology for children with severe short stature accompanied by facial anomalies， disproportionate body types， skeletal abnormalities， SGA， GH peak concentration below normal and a family history of short stature. WES played an important role in identifying the monogenic causes of short stature. This study indicated that affecting growth plate cartilage formation through intracellular signaling pathways and ECM components or functions was the main mechanism of causative genes leading to severe short stature in children. Further research may help discover and study new pathogenic variants and gene functions.

Objective To analyze and compare the auxiliary value and significance of γ-interferon release assay (IGRA) in the diagnosis of tuberculosis. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted to collect the test results of 462 suspected tuberculosis patients who underwent IGRA detection in the outpatient department of Tianjin Tuberculosis Control Center from January 2020 to December 2021. According to the diagnostic results, they were divided into a tuberculosis group of 229 cases (203 cases of pulmonary tuberculosis and 26 cases of extrapulmonary tuberculosis) and a non-tuberculosis group of 233 cases. The auxiliary diagnostic value of IGRA for tuberculosis was analyzed and compared with two methods of Mycobacterium tuberculosis culture and Xpert MTB/RIF. Results The positive rates of IGRA, Mycobacterium tuberculosis culture, and Xpert MTB/RIF in TB patients were 76.42%, 29.26% and 40.62%, respectively, compared with the non-TB group (38.20%, 0.00%, 0.00%), with statistically significant differences (P<0.001). The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value of IGRA alone in the detection of tuberculosis were 76.42%, 61.80%, 69.29%, and 72.73% respectively, those of Mycobacterium tuberculosis culture were 29.26%, 98.28%, 94.37%, and 63.43%, and those of Xpert MTB/RIF were 40.60%, 100%, 100%, and 63.14%. The positive rates of IGRA were 76.85% and 73.08% in patients with pulmonary tuberculosis and extrapulmonary tuberculosis, respectively, with no statistical significance (P>0.05). The positive rates of IGRA in bacterial positive patients and non-tuberculosis patients were 79.34% and 38.20%, respectively, with statistical significance (χ2=54.526, P<0.001). The positive rates of IGRA in patients with and without tuberculosis were 73.15% and 38.20%, respectively, with significant difference (χ2=36.456, P<0.001). Conclusions IGRA has a relatively high sensitivity in the diagnosis of tuberculosis and also has certain advantages in the screening of extrapulmonary tuberculosis and mycobacterium-negative It provides important reference basis for the clinical diagnosis of tuberculosis.

OBJECTIVE To explore the phenotypic changes and possible mechanisms of lncRNA OIP5-AS1 on the proliferation, migration, apoptosis, invasion and cycle of ovarian epithelial cells IOSE80. METHODS The clinical data of patients were collected from TCGA database and GEO database. After R package analysis, the differential expression of OIP5-AS1 was visualized in the volcanic map. The correlation between survival rate and OIP5-AS1 was analyzed by Kaplan-Meier. The IOSE80 cell model of OIP5-AS1 over expression and silencing was constructed with lentivirus vector. The expression of OIP5-AS1 was verified by RT-qPCR. Cell proliferation was detected by CCK-8. Invasion was detected by Transwell. Cell migration was detected by scratch test. Cell cycle and apoptosis were detected by flow cytometry. Western blotting was used to detect the expression of E-cadherin and N-cadherin, as well as the expression of cyclin-dependent kinase(CDK) and cyclin-G-related kinase(GAK). RESULTS RT-qPCR results showed that IOSE80 cell lines over expressing and silencing OIP5-AS1 were successfully constructed. CCK-8 results showed that overexpressing OIP5-AS1 promoted the proliferation of IOSE80 cells. Scratch test results showed that overexpressing OIP5-AS1 promoted the migration of IOSE80 cells. Transwell results showed that overexpressing OIP5-AS1 would increase the invasiveness of IOSE80 cells. Flow cytometry results showed that overexpression of OIP5-AS1 weakened the apoptosis of IOSE80 cells and promoted the progress of cell cycle. Western blotting results showed that overexpression of OIP5-AS1 downregulated the expression of E-cadherin and upregulated the expression of N-cadherin, while overexpression of OIP5-AS1 increased the expression of CDK and GAK proteins. CONCLUSION LncRNA OIP5-AS1 further interferes with the regulation of IOSE80 cell cycle by up regulating the expression of CDK and GAK, and then indirectly regulates the malignant phenotype of ovarian epithelial cells.

Objective To explore the difference of the left ventricular global longitudinal strain (GLS) and the segment strains between cardiac amyloidosis (CA) and non-obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). Methods Twenty patients with immunoglobulin light chain cardiac amyloidosis (AL-CA) as CA group and 20 patients with non-obstructive HCM selected as controls (HCM group) were enrolled from January 2016 to April 2022 in Zhongshan Hospital, Fudan University. All patients underwent two-dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography (2D-STE). The left ventricle GLS and the segmental strains were calculated. The values of these strains to distinguish AL-CA from HCM were analyzed by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves and logistic regression analysis. Results In the CA group, the GLS parameters (3P, 4Ch, 2Ch, 3Ch), as well as the left ventricle segmental strains (MID-ANT/LAT, MID-INF/SEPT, BASAL-ANT/LAT, BASAL-INF/SEPT, MID-ANT, MID-INF, BASAL-ANT, BASAL-INF, MID-INF/LAT, BASAL-ANT/SEPT, and BASAL-INF/LAT) were all lower than those in the HCM group (P＜0.01). ROC results showed that GLS(4Ch), GLS(2Ch), GLS(3Ch), GLS(3P), BASAL-ANT/LAT, BASAL-INF/SEPT, BASAL-ANT, BASAL-INF, BASAL-ANT/SEPT and BASAL-INF/LAT had good efficacy in distinguishing AL-CA from HCM. Logistic regression analysis showed that BASAL-ANT/LAT was an independent factor in distinguishing AL-CA from HCM (P＜0.01). The consistency of test results was good. Conclusions The left ventricular segmental myocardial strains show good efficacy in distinguishing AL-CA from HCM, and BASAL-ANT/LAT has highest application value.
