		                        			This paper systematically analyzed the ancient monographs of acupuncture and moxibustion and comprehensive medical books from pre-Qin to 1911, and extracted the data according to the etiology and pathogenesis, treatment principles and methods, acupoint selection, needling and moxibustion, and taboos of needling and moxibustion. The pathogenesis of migraine in ancient books and documents is summarized as "the causes are diverse, and phlegm-dampness is the majority". For treatment, the features include "needling has a sequence, and the root and the branch should be treated separately" and "focusing on tonifying deficiency and drain excess". It is also obtained of the rich ideas of acupoints selection, extensive application records of moxibustion, unique application of bloodletting therapy and clear explanation of acupuncture and moxibustion taboos. All mentioned above is expected to enrich the ideas and methods of modern migraine treatment and improve the clinical effects.

		                        			Objective:To evaluate the 10-year protective effect and immunogenicity of quadrivalent human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine in Chinese women aged 20 to 45 years.Methods:From October 2019 to April 2020, a long-term follow-up study was conducted on the subjects of the Phase III clinical trial of the quadrivalent HPV vaccine (NCT00834106). Participants underwent a questionnaire survey, venous blood sampling, gynecological examination, cervical exfoliated cell pathology examination, and serum neutralizing antibody titers for HPV-6, 11, 16, and 18 were measured using a pseudovirus neutralization assay. The results of the cytological examination and the positive rate and titers of serum antibodies of different cervical exfoliated cells were compared.Results:A total of 889 subjects were followed up, including 240 in the control group, 453 in the vaccination group and 196 in the post-trial vaccination group. The age of the control group was (40±7) years old, which was higher than that of the supplementary vaccination group and the vaccination group [(38±4) and (38±6) years old, respectively] ( P<0.05). There were no statistically significant differences in condom use and sexual frequency among all groups (all P values>0.05). The abnormal proportion of cervical exfoliation cytopathology in the vaccination group was 3.7% (17/453), which was significantly lower than that in the control group [9.6% (23/240)] and post-trial vaccination group [5.6% (11/196)] ( P<0.05). There were two cases of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) grade 1 in the vaccination group, two cases of CIN grade 1 and three cases of CIN grade 2 and above in the control group, and no CIN grade 1 and above cases in the post-trial vaccination group. The positive rate of HPV-18 antibody was 35.5% (161/453) in the vaccination group and 76.0% (149/196) in the post-trial vaccination group, which was significantly lower than that of other types ( P<0.05). The neutralizing antibody GMT ratio between the vaccination group and the control group ranged from 2.62 to 25.33 (9.05 to 83.08). Conclusion:Protective neutralizing antibodies are sustained in Chinese women aged 20 to 45 years after ten years of vaccination with quadrivalent HPV vaccine.

		                        			Objective:To compare the localization accuracy of interictal 18F-FDG and 18F-flumazenil (FMZ) PET/CT imaging for focal cortical dysplasia (FCD). Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on 22 patients (12 males, 10 females; age 8-36 years) with pathologically confirmed FCD who underwent surgical resection at Huashan Hospital, Fudan University from July 2021 to June 2023. All patients underwent 18F-FDG and 18F-FMZ PET/CT scans before surgery. Surgical pathological diagnosis was used as the gold standard. Visual scoring was used to analyze the images. The accuracy of the two imaging methods in the localization of FCD was compared, and subgroup analysis (FCD Ⅱa, FCD Ⅱb) of different pathological type was further performed. Paired- t test, χ2 test or Fisher′s exact test was used to analyze the data. Results:The visual score of 18F-FMZ PET/CT was higher than that of 18F-FDG (3.00±0.82 vs 2.27±0.92; t=4.17, P=0.020). The accuracy of interictal 18F-FMZ PET/CT was 77.27%(17/22), which was higher than that of 18F-FDG PET/CT (36.36%, 8/22; χ2=7.50, P=0.006). Subgroup analysis showed that within the cohort of patients diagnosed with FCD Ⅱa ( n=18), 18F-FMZ PET/CT outperformed 18F-FDG in terms of accuracy for localization (15/18 vs 6/18; P=0.006). Conclusion:Compared to 18F-FDG, 18F-FMZ PET/CT demonstrates clearer and more accurate identification of lesion borders, and exhibits higher precision, which provides valuable guidance for preoperative localization.

		                        			To analyze the clinical phenotype and genetic etiology for a child featuring congenital hypothyroidism (CH).
		                        		
		                        			METHODS:
		                        			Whole exome sequencing (WES), copy number variation (CNV) sequencing and chromosomal microarray analysis (CMA) were carried out for a newborn infant who had presented at Linyi People's Hospital for CH. Clinical data of the child was analyzed, in addition with a literature review.
		                        		
		                        			RESULTS:
		                        			The main characteristics of the newborn infant had included peculiar face, vulvar edema, hypotonia, psychomotor retardation, recurrent respiratory tract infection with laryngeal wheezing and feeding difficulties. Laboratory test indicated hypothyroidism. WES suggested a CNV deletion on chromosome 14q12q13. CMA further confirmed a 4.12 Mb deletion at chromosome 14q12q13.3 (32649595_36769800), which has encompassed 22 genes including NKX2-1, the pathogenic gene for CH. The same deletion was found in neither of her parents.

		                        			Ferroptosis is a new type of programmed cell death that is closely associated with the pathophysiological process of ischemic stroke. Ferroptosis inhibitors can improve neurological function and provide neuroprotection after cerebral ischemia. Therefore, the role of ferroptosis in ischemic stroke and the regulation of ferroptosis to intervene in the occurrence and development of ischemic stroke have become a research hotspot. This article reviews the molecular mechanism and potential therapeutic targets of ferroptosis during ischemic stroke, hoping to provide new perspectives for the treatment of ischemic stroke.

		                        			Objective:To analyze the risk factors of bronchopulmonary dysplasia(BPD)in very preterm infants(VPI), and to provide scientific basis for the prevention and treatment of BPD in VPI.Methods:A prospective multicenter study was designed to collect the clinical data of VPI in department of neonatology of 28 hospitals in 7 regions from September 2019 to December 2020.According to the continuous oxygen dependence at 28 days after birth, VPI were divided into non BPD group and BPD group, and the risk factors of BPD in VPI were analyzed.Results:A total of 2 514 cases of VPI including 1 364 cases without BPD and 1 150 cases with BPD were enrolled.The incidence of BPD was 45.7%.The smaller the gestational age and weight, the higher the incidence of BPD( P<0.001). Compared with non BPD group, the average birth age, weight and cesarean section rate in BPD group were lower, and the incidence of male infants, small for gestational age and 5-minute apgar score≤7 were higher( P<0.01). In BPD group, the incidences of neonatal respiratory distress syndrome(NRDS), hemodynamically significant patent ductus arteriosus, retinopathy of prematurity, feeding intolerance, extrauterine growth restriction, grade Ⅲ~Ⅳ intracranial hemorrhage, anemia, early-onset and late-onset sepsis, nosocomial infection, parenteral nutrition-associated cholestasis were higher( P<0.05), the use of pulmonary surfactant(PS), postnatal hormone exposure, anemia and blood transfusion were also higher, and the time of invasive and non-invasive mechanical ventilation, oxygen use and total hospital stay were longer( P<0.001). The time of starting enteral nutrition, cumulative fasting days, days of reaching total enteral nutrition, days of continuous parenteral nutrition, days of reaching 110 kcal/(kg·d) total calorie, days of reaching 110 kcal/(kg·d) oral calorie were longer and the breastfeeding rate was lower in BPD group than those in non BPD group( P<0.001). The cumulative doses of amino acid and fat emulsion during the first week of hospitalization were higher in BPD group( P<0.001). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that NRDS, invasive mechanical ventilation, age of reaching total enteral nutrition, anemia and blood transfusion were the independent risk factors for BPD in VPI, and older gestational age was the protective factor for BPD. Conclusion:Strengthening perinatal management, avoiding premature delivery and severe NRDS, shortening the time of invasive mechanical ventilation, paying attention to enteral nutrition management, reaching whole intestinal feeding as soon as possible, and strictly mastering the indications of blood transfusion are very important to reduce the incidence of BPD in VPI.

		                        			Objective:To investigate the correlations between cerebral β-amyloid (Aβ) deposition assessed by 18F-florbetapir (AV45) PET imaging and clinical cognitive symptoms in patients with subtle cognitive decline (SCD) and mild cognitive impairment (MCI). Methods:Data of twenty-four patients (11 males, 13 females, age: (63.2±7.6) years) diagnosed as SCD ( n=15) or MCI ( n=9) from December 2018 to March 2019 in Shanghai Jiao Tong University Affiliated Sixth People′s Hospital were collected prospectively. All patients underwent 18F-AV45 PET imaging, brain MRI T 1 scan and Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) within two weeks. 18F-AV45 PET images were analyzed visually (positive, mild positive, negative). After being pretreated according to the MRI, 18F-AV45 PET images were analyzed semi-quantitatively by calculating the standardized uptake value ratio (SUVR) of Aβ deposition in 8 regions of interest (ROIs; frontal lobe, lateral parietal lobe, lateral temporal lobe, medial temporal lobe, occipital lobe, basal ganglia, posterior cingulate and precuneus), with cerebellar gray matter as the reference. Partial correlation coefficients between regional SUVRs and MMSE score were calculated. Results:18F-AV45 PET imaging showed that 16 patients with positive results and 8 patients with mild positive results. MMSE score of 24 patients was 28.2±2.0, and the SUVR was 0.93-1.87. Correlation analysis revealed that Aβ deposition in frontal cortex ( r=-0.432), posterior cingulate lobe ( r=-0.434) and precuneus ( r=-0.418) was negatively correlated with MMSE score (all P<0.05); and no significant correlations between SUVR and MMSE in other brain regions were found ( r values: from -0.412 to -0.110, all P>0.05). Conclusion:18F-AV45 PET imaging can noninvasively detect brain Aβ deposition in patients, and can effectively reflect the clinical cognitive status of patients with SCD and MCI to a certain extent.

		                        			Objective:To evaluate the effect of parecoxib sodium on phenotypic transformation of alveolar macrophages in a mouse model of ventilator-associated lung injury (VALI).Methods:Forty-five SPF healthy adult male C57BL/6J mice, weighing 22-30 g, aged 8-12 weeks, were divided into 3 groups ( n=15 each) using a random number table method: sham operation group (S group), VALI group (V group) and parecoxib sodium group (P group). Lipopolysaccharide 20 ng was intraperitoneally injected, and 2 h later the animals were mechanically ventilated (tidal volume 30 ml/kg, respiratory rate 70 breaths/min, inspiratory/expiratory ratio 1∶2, fraction of inspired oxygen 21%, positive end-expiratory pressure 0) for 4 h to establish the model of VALI.Parecoxib sodium 30 mg/kg was intravenously injected at 1 h prior to mechanical ventilation in group P. The mice were sacrificed at 4 h of ventilation, the right lung was lavaged and the broncho-alveolar lavage fluid (BALF) was collected for determination of interleukin-6 (IL-6), IL-10 and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) concentrations (by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay), expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and arginase-1(Arg-1) in BALF and expression of phosphorylated Janus kinase 2 (p-JAK2) and phosphorylated signal transduction and transcription activator 3 (p-STAT-3) (by Western blot). The left lung was removed for determination of the wet/dry weight ratio (W/D ratio) and for examination of the pathological changes which were scored. Results:Compared with group S, the lung injury score, W/D ratio, concentrations of IL-6, IL-10 and TNF-α in BALF, and expression of iNOS, Arg-1, p-JAK2 and p-STAT-3 were significantly increased in V and P groups ( P<0.05). Compared with group V, the concentration of IL-10 in BALF and expression of Arg-1, p-JAK2 and p-STAT-3 were significantly increased, and the lung injury score, W/D ratio, concentrations of IL-6 and TNF-α in BALF and expression of iNOS were decreased in group P ( P<0.05). Conclusion:Parecoxib sodium promotes phenotypic transformation of alveolar macrophages from M1 subtype to M2 subtype and inhibits inflammatory responses, thus alleviating VALI, which may be related to activating JAK2/STAT-3 signaling pathway in mice.

		                        			Objective:To investigate the neuroprotective effect of ibuprofen, and influence of ibuprofen in hippocampal nod-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3) inflammatome and its related products in chronic epilepsy rats models.Methods:Thirty male SD rats were randomly divided into 3 groups: control group, pentylenetetrazol (PTZ) group and PTZ+ibuprofen group ( n=10). Rats in the PTZ group were intraperitoneally injected with PTZ (35 mg/kg) once every one d, and rats in the PTZ+ibuprofen group were intraperitoneally injected with ibuprofen (30 mg/kg) once every one d 30 min before PTZ injection; rats in the control group were intraperitoneally injected with the same amount of normal saline every one d. Injection for 15 times was performed. After the last injection, the rats were observed for 10 min, and the latency, seizure level and complete ignition of the rats in each group were recorded. Electroencephalogram (EEG) was used to detect the abnormal brain discharge in rats. Four h after last injection, HE staining and Nissl staining were used to detect the proportion of damaged hippocampal neurons in each group. Immunohistochemical staining was used to detect the absorbance values of NLRP3 inflammasome, caspase-1 and interleukin (IL)-18 positive cells in the hippocampus of rats in each group; Western blotting was used to detect the protein expressions of NLRP3 inflammatome, caspase-1 and interleukin (IL)-18 in the hippocampus of each group. Results:(1) As compared with the PTZ group, rats in the PTZ+ibuprofen group had statistically lower incidence of complete ignition, significantly longer latency and significantly lower seizure level ( P<0.05). EEG showed spikes and high amplitude epileptic wave discharge in rats of the PTZ group; EEG showed low amplitude small spiny wave and slow spiny wave in rats of the PTZ+ibuprofen group. (2) As compared with the control group, the proportion of injured hippocampal neurons significantly increased in the PTZ group and PTZ+ibuprofen group ( P<0.05); and the proportion of injured hippocampal neurons in the PTZ+ibuprofen group signficantly decreased as compared with that in the PTZ group ( P<0.05). (3) As compared with those in the control group, the absorbance values of NLRP3 inflammatome, caspase-1 and IL-18 positive cells, and the protein expressions of NLRP3 inflammatome, caspase-1 and IL-18 in the hippocampus of the PTZ group and PTZ+ibuprofen group were all significantly increased ( P<0.05); as compared with the PTZ group, the the absorbance values of NLRP3 inflammatome, caspase-1 and IL-18 positive cells, and the protein expressions of NLRP3 inflammatome, caspase-1 and IL-18 in the hippocampus in the PTZ+ibuprofen group were all significantly decreased ( P<0.05). Conclusion:Ibuprofen can inhibit the expressions of NLRP3 inflammatome, caspase-1 and IL-18, reduce the intensity of seizures, and play a neuroprotective role.
