Ulcerative colitis is a common disease of the digestive system in China,which seriously affects the quality of life of patients due to its disease characteristics,such as easy recurrence,repeated course of disease and carcinogenic tendency.Neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio(NLR)and platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio(PLR)are considered as new inflammatory biomarkers,which have been found to be related with ulcerative colitis.This article reviewed the clinical value of NLR and PLR in ulcerative colitis.

Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder is a common neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by persistent attention deficit, hyperactivity, and impulsive behaviors that are not consistent with developmental age.Academic and vocational difficulties, social exclusion, and delinquent behaviors are manifested in daily life.It is also commonly accompanied by psychiatric problems.At the same time, mental problems are common, and the overall quality of life is greatly affected, placing a heavy burden on society as well as the family.International attention deficit hyperactivity disorder experts have developed a common and comprehensive International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health core set of classifications for assessing individual functioning in attention deficit hyperactivity disorder.

Objective To explore the immune mechanism of Tibetan medicine Twelve Flavors Yishou San in intervening with acute lung injury.Methods Construct a lipopolysaccharide(LPS)-induced acute lung injury rat model and treated it with Twelve Flavors Yishou San.The intervention effect of Twelve Flavors Yishou San on LPS induced acute lung injury was determined through lung pathological sections and blood gas analysis.Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA)was used to detect the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokine tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)and anti-inflammatory cytokine interleukin(IL)-10 in rat's bronchoalveolar lavage fluid.Flow cytometry was used to detect changes in immune cells in rat's bronchoalveolar lavage fluid,lungs,spleen and peripheral blood.Results LPS successfully induced an acute lung injury model in rats,and Twelve Flavors Yishou San could alleviate the exudation of inflammatory cells,elevated oxygen partial pressure in LPS induced acute lung injury to varying degrees.The ELISA results of rat bronchoalveolar lavage fluid showed that compared with normal control group,the TNF-α level in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid of rats with acute lung injury was increased and the IL-10 level was decreased,while the Twelve Flavors Yishou San could alleviate this effect.The results of flow cytometry showed that Twelve Flavors Yishou San could significantly reduce neutrophil infiltration in rat bronchoalveolar lavage fluid,but had no significant effect on macrophages and adaptive immune response.Conclusion Twelve Flavors Yishou San can alleviate LPS induced acute lung injury by inhibiting neutrophil infiltration,providing an important experimental basis for fully understanding the therapeutic mechanism of Twelve Flavors Yishou San.

Objective To investigate the values of nucleoprotein transformation in sperm for predicting recurrent abortion.Methods A total of 521 infertile couples with complete test indicators on fertility were selected from the reproductive medical clinic of our hospital from 2019 to 2022,among which the ages of the male were from 23 to 56 years old.The following factors causing recurrent abortion were excluded,including the age of woman,body mass index,metabolic disease,antiphospholipid syndrome,uterine and accessory abnormalities,history of caesarean section and intrauterine myoma/cervical conectomy,peripheral blood chromosome abnormalities of both the couple,and adverse life history,such as smoking/alcohol abuse.According to the abortion situation,they were divided into the recurrent abortion group(≥two spontaneous abortions),one spontaneous abortion group and no abortion group.Tukey's multiple comparison was performed to compare the differences of nucleoprotein transformation of sperm in each group by using GraphPad6.0 sta-tistical software.The Pearson method was used to analyze the correlation between nucleoprotein transformation and recurrent abortion.The predictive values of nucleoprotein transformation in recurrent abortion were analyzed by the parameters of sensitivity,specificity,positive predictive value,negative predictive value,Youden index and odd ratio.Results The percentages of abnormal nucleoprotein transformation in recurrent abortion group[(33.31±13.83)％]were significantly higher than those in non-abortion group[(26.85± 15.38)％]and the one abortion group[(28.20±12.50)％,P＜0.05].Pearson correlation analysis showed that there was a significant positive correlation between abnormal nucleoprotein transformation and recurrent abortion.The sensitivity and specificity of nucleoprote-in transformation for predicting recurrent abortion were 45.24％and 73.64％,respectively.All of the data of positive predictive value(15.70％),negative predictive value(92.53％),Youden index(18.88％)and odd ratio(2.31)of nucleoprotein transformation in predicting recurrent abortion were higher than those of high DNA stainability(10.64％,90.31％,1.05％and 1.11).Conclusion In the spouses of patients with recurrent abortion,the immaturity of sperm nuclear protein is significantly increased and significantly posi-tively correlated with recurrent abortion.The abnormal nucleoprotein transformation of sperm may be the important factor of recurrent a-bortion in males,and it has high predictive value for recurrent spontaneous abortion in clinical practice.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy and adverse reactions of moderately hypofractionated intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) combined with androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) for locally advanced prostate cancer (LAPC).Methods:This study retrospectively analyzed the medical records of 40 LAPC patients who were admitted in The Second Hospital of Dalian Medical University during 2014-2020. The planning gross target volume (PGTV) dose for prostate gland and seminal vesicle gland was 64.8-70.0 Gy/25-28 f, 2.4-2.8 Gy/f and the dose of PGTVnd in 20 cases with positive pelvic lymph nodes was 60.0-64.4 Gy/25-28 f, 2.3-2.4 Gy/f. The dose of planning target volume (PTV) for the drainage area of pelvic lymph nodes was 45.0-50.4 Gy/25-28 f. The enrolled patients were treated with long-term ADT, including neoadjuvant, simultaneous, and adjuvant therapies. The efficacy and adverse reactions were evaluated. The prognostic factors affecting the biochemical failure-free survival (BFFS) were analyzed.Results:The median follow-up time was 31 months. The 2- and 3-year overall survival (OS) rates were 100% and 96.9%, respectively. The 1-, 2-, and 3-year BFFS rates were 90%, 76.8% and 72%, respectively. The 1-, 2-, and 3-year distant metastasis-free survival (DMFS) rates were 92.2%, 82.8% and 75.1%, respectively. Gleason (GS) score ( χ2=10.00, P < 0.05) and adjacent tissue invasion ( χ2=8.85, P<0.05) were prognostic factors related to BFFS for LAPC. Adjacent tissue invasion and GS 9-10 were independent poor prognostic factors. The incidence of acute urinary adverse reaction and rectal injury (grade≥2) was 7.5% and 20%, respectively. The incidence of late urinary adverse reaction and rectal injury (grade≥2) was 12.5% and 17.5%, respectively. Adverse reactions at grade 3-4 did not occur. Conclusions:The moderately hypofractionated IMRT combined with ADT is feasible for LAPC treatment, achieving satisfactory survival effects. 70 Gy/25-28 f, 2.5-2.8 Gy/f is a safe and effective moderate hypofraction scheme. Adjacent tissue invasion and GS score are prognostic factors related to BFFS for LAPC.

H 1-antihistamines are widely used in the treatment of various allergic diseases, but there are still many challenges in the safe and rational use of H 1-antihistamines in pediatrics, and there is a lack of guidance on the prescription review of H 1-antihistamines for children.In this paper, suggestions are put forward from the indications, dosage, route of administration, pathophysiological characteristics of children with individual difference and drug interactions, so as to provide reference for clinicians and pharmacists.

Anti-seizure medications (ASMs) are the main therapy for epilepsy.There are many kinds of ASMs with complex mechanism of action, so it is difficult for pharmacists to examine prescriptions.This paper put forward some suggestions on the indications, dosage forms/routes of administration, appropriateness of usage and dosage, combined medication and drug interaction, long-term prescription review, individual differences in pathophysiology of children, and drug selection when complicated with common epilepsy, for the reference of doctors and pharmacists.

Objective To investigate the feasibility and value of the four-low scanning scheme of dual-source computed tomography(DSCT)on triple-rule-out computed tomography angiography(CTA)examination in acute chest pain.Methods Triple-rule-out CTA examination was performed on 150 patients with prospective electrocardiogram gating.They were divided into two groups:group A(100 kV)and group B(70 kV).According to different body mass index(BMI),group A were divided into Anon-overweight and Aoverweight,while group B were divided into Bnon-overweight and Boverweight.Subjective and objective evaluations[signal-to-noise ratio(SNR),contrast-to-noise ratio(CNR),standard deviation(SD)]of the two groups were analyzed,and radiation-related parameters were recorded.Results There was no significant difference in subjective scores between the two groups(Kappa value=0.372,P＞0.05).CT value,SD,CNR and SNR were significantly different among the four subgroups(P＜0.05).SNR and CNR of A(B)non-overweight were higher than those of A(B)overweight(P＜0.05).Effective dose(ED)of group B decreased by 74.5％.Conclusion ADMIRE-3 and iterative beam-hardening correction(iBHC)combined with four-low scanning scheme of DSCT could improve the images quality of vascular,and reduce the radiation dose,contrast agent dosage and flow rate,which is worthy of promotion and application in patients with BMI≤30 kg/m2 acute chest pain triple-rule-out.

This study aimed to investigate the efficacy and safety of apatinib plus programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) blockades for patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (CRC) who were refractory to the standard regimens. In this retrospective study, patients with metastatic CRC who received apatinib plus PD-1 blockades in clinical practice were included. The initial dosage of apatinib was 250 mg or 500 mg, and PD-1 blockades were comprised of camrelizumab, sintilimab and pembrolizumab. Efficacy and safety data were collected through the hospital’s electronic medical record system. From October 2018 to March 2022, a total of 43 patients with metastatic CRC were evaluated for efficacy and safety. The results showed an objective response rate of 25.6% (95% CI, 13.5%-41.2%) and a disease control rate of 72.1% (95% CI, 56.3%-84.7%). The median progression-free survival (PFS) of the cohort was 5.8 months (95% CI, 3.81-7.79), and the median overall survival (OS) was 10.3 months (95% CI, 5.75-14.85). The most common adverse reactions were fatigue (76.7%), hypertension (72.1%), diarrhea (62.8%), and hand-foot syndrome (51.2%).Multivariate Cox regression analysis revealed that Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status and location of CRC (left or right-side) were independent factors to predict PFS of patients with metastatic CRC treated with the combination regimen. Consequently, the combination of apatinib and PD-1 blockades demonstrated potential efficacy and acceptable safety for patients with treatment-refractory metastatic CRC. This conclusion should be confirmed in prospective clinical trials subsequently.

So far, liver cancer is still a highly malignant tumor with a high incidence rate in China, and it seriously affects the life and health of Chinese people. Previous studies have shown that the development of liver cancer is associated with various factors such as virus, smoking, drinking, and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease. With continuous exploration, more and more studies have pointed out that nutritional factors and living environment are associated with the development and progression of liver cancer. Folic acid is a necessary nutrient for cell growth and reproduction, and its level in human body has an impact on the growth of tumor cells and is closely associated with liver cancer. This article reviews the research advances in the association between folic acid and liver cancer in recent years, so as to provide new reference and basis for the prevention and treatment of liver cancer.
