Objective:To evaluate the clinical value of CD4 + T lymphocyte subsets such as helper Th2 in patients with recurrent uveitis (BU) in Beh?et′s disease (BD). Methods:The clinical data of 153 hospitalized patients diagnosed with Beh?et′s disease from January 1, 2020 to June 30, 2023 in the Second Hospital of Shanxi Medical University were retrospectively analyzed. The subsets of CD4 + T lymphocytes were measured, including helper T cells (Th cells) such as Th1, Th2, Th17 and regulatory T cells (Treg cells), biochemical lipid indexes (TC, TG, etc.), the frequency of oral ulcers in the past 1 year, the frequency of genital ulcers in the past 1 year, and drug use before admission;According to whether there was ocular involvement and uveitis, 153 cases of BD were divided into Beh?et non-uveitis group (non-BU group) and Beh?et uveitis group (BU group). The above indexes and independent correlation factors of recurrent BU were compared between BU group and non-BU group;The above indexes and independent correlation factors of recurrent BU were compared between BU group and non-BU group. The levels of cytokines and ICBD total score, the correlation between ICBD total score and various cytokines, and the diagnostic performance of Th2 cells were compared between BU group and non-BU group.The statistical methods were Mann-Whitney U test, independent sample t test, Chi-square test, multiple logistic regression analysis, Pearson correlation analysis and receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) analysis. Results:①The levels of Th1, Th2, Th17 cells, TC and TG in BU group were higher than those in non-BU group [133.87 (93.38, 229.87)/μl vs. 102.51(64.25, 149.23)/μl] and [9.43 (5.84, 14.13)/μl vs. 6.78(4.23, 9.44)/μl], [15.53 (9.36, 25.27)/μl vs. 9.83(5.46, 14.76)/μl], [4.21 (3.89, 4.90) mmol/L vs. 3.89(3.37, 4.34)mmol/L)], [1.43(1.00, 2.21)mmol/L vs. 0.96(0.69, 1.38)mmol/L], The differences were statistically significant ( Z=-3.24, Z=-3.05, Z=-3.94, Z=-2.25, Z=-3.47; all P<0.05); There was no statistical significance in Chi-square test between the two groups ( χ2=5.69, P>0.05).②The levels of IL-2, IL-10 and total ICBD score in BU group were higher than those in non-BU group, with statistical significance ( Z=-2.12, Z=-2.29, t=-6.48; all P<0.05). ③ The results of multiple logistic regression analysis showed that Th2 was an independent correlation factor for BU [ OR value (95% CI) was 1.143(1.007, 1.298), P=0.039]. The total score of BU patients was correlated with Th2 and Th17 cells. ROC analysis showed that the sensitivity of Th2 in diagnosing BU was 68.8%, the specificity was 49.5% and the area under the curve (95% CI) was 0.697 (0.585, 0.809) (P=0.001). Conclusion:CD4 + T lymphocyte subsets such as the absolute number of Th2 cells are related to BU, which is an important indicator to observe the severity of disease progression in BU patients, and has certain clinical value in evaluating the recurrence of BU in BD patients.

Objective:To investigate the expression and clinical significance of SKA3 protein in cholangiocarcinoma, and the effect of interfering SKA3 expression in vitro on the proliferation, invasion, and migration of cholangiocarcinoma SSP-25 cells, as well as its possible mechanism.Methods:The clinicopathological data, cancer tissues, and paracancerous tissues from 172 patients with distal cholangiocarcinoma in Beijing Friendship Hospital, Capital Medical University between January 2015 and December 2020 were retrospectively collected. Immunohistochemical method was used to detect the expression level of SKA3 protein in cancer tissues and paracancerous tissues. Transfection of SKA3 small interfering RNA (siRNA) into cholangiocarcinoma SSP-25 cells was used as si-SKA3 group, and the untreated SSP-25 cells were used as the control group. Cell immunofluorescence staining and Western blot were used to detect the transfection effect; CCK-8 method and cell colony formation experiment were used to observe changes in cell proliferation; cell scratch assay was used to monitor cell invasion; Western blot was used to detect the expression of PI3K-AKT signaling pathway related proteins.Results:Among 172 patients with cholangiocarcinoma, there were 116 males and 56 females; the age of 54 cases was under 60 years, and age of 118 cases was equal to or more than 60 years. The positive rate of SKA3 protein in cholangiocarcinoma tissues was higher than that in paracancerous tissues [78.49% (135/172) vs. 13.95% (24/172)], and the difference was statistically significant ( χ2 = 42.78, P < 0.01). The positive rate of SKA3 protein in cancer tissues of cholangiocarcinoma patients with nerve invasion [84.35% (124/147) vs. 44.00% (11/25)] and lymph node metastasis [88.78% (87/98) vs. 64.86% (48/74)] was higher than that of patients without nerve invasion and without lymph node metastasis, and the differences were statistically significant (all P < 0.05). There were no statistically significant differences in the positive rate of SKA3 protein in cancer tissues of patients stratified by age, gender, tumor diameter, TNM stage, and tumor differentiation (all P > 0.05). The CCK-8 method showed that after 72 h of cultivation, the proliferation ability of SSP-25 cells in the si-SKA3 group (expressed as absorbance value at 450 nm) was lower than that in the control group (0.56±0.05 vs. 0.83±0.06), and the difference was statistically significant ( t = 3.06, P = 0.06). After 2 weeks of cultivation, the colony formation experiment showed that the number of colony formation of SSP-25 cells in the si-SKA3 group was lower than that in the control group. After 24 h of cultivation, the scratch healing rates of SSP-25 cells in the si-SKA3 group and the control group were (31±6) % and (72±5)%, respectively, and the difference was statistically significant ( t = 5.63, P = 0.013).Western blot analysis showed that the relative expression levels of p-PI3K and p-AKT proteins in the PI3K-AKT signaling pathway were lower than those in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (all P < 0.05). Conclusions:SKA3 protein is highly expressed in cholangiocarcinoma tissues, and may related to nerve invasion and lymph node metastasis. Interfering SKA3 expression can inhibit the proliferation and invasion of cholangiocarcinoma SSP-25 cells, and its mechanism may be related to the inhibition of the PI3K-AKT signaling pathway.

Accurate classification of the acetabular injuries and appropriate treatment plan are great challenges for orthopedic surgeons because of the irregular anatomical structure of the acetabulum and aggregation of important vessels and nerves around it. Letournel-Judet classification system has been widely applied to classify acetabular fractures. However, there are several limitations, including incomplete inclusion of fracture types, difficulty in understanding and insufficient guidance for surgical treatment, etc. Serious complications such as traumatic arthritis are common due to wrong classification and diagnosis and improper selection of surgical strategy, which brings a heavy burden to the society and families. Three-column classification, based on anatomic characteristics, has advantages of containing more fracture types and being easy to understand, etc. To solve the problems existing in the diagnosis and treatment process based on Letournel-Judet classification, achieve accurate diagnosis and treatment of patients with acetabular fractures, and obtain satisfactory prognosis, the Orthopedic Trauma Emergency Center of Third Hospital of Hebei Medical University and the Trauma Orthopedic Branch of the Chinese Orthopedic Association organized experts from relevant fields to formulate the Expert consensus on the accurate diagnosis and treatment of acetabular fractures based on three-column classification ( version 2023) in terms of principles of evidence-based medicine. Based on the three-column classification, 15 recommendations were proposed, covering the diagnosis, treatment, complication prevention and management, etc, so as to provide reference for accurate diagnosis and treatment of acetabular fractures.

Objective:To analyze the clinical characteristics and predictive factors of SSc associated heart disease.Methods:The clinical data of patients with SSc from January 2016 to December 2021 in Ningbo Medical Center Lihuili Hospital were collected. Aight healthy controls come from the medicial examination center. They were divided into a positive group and a negative group based on whether heart involvement was present or not. The clinical manifestations of the two groups were compared by t test, Wilcoxon signed rank test and χ2 test and Logistic regression or ROC curve was used to analyze the prognostic risk of SSc associated heart disease. Then the transcriptome sequencing was used to analyze the differential gene expression. Results:①A total of 75 SSc patients were treated in our hospital, of which 6 patients with overlap syndrome and 1 patient with congenital heart disease were excluded. The clinical data of 68 patients were analyzed including 16 patients in the positive group and 52 patients in the negative group. Among the 16 patients with cardiac involvement, 12 patients (75.0%) had abnormal electrocardiogram, 9 patients (56.2%) with heart valve disease, 8 patients (50.0%) with abnormal cardiac structure and 8 patients (50.0%) with pericardial effusion. The biomarkers were elevated in 10 cases (83.3%). ②Univariate analysis showed that the positive group had a longer course of disease [120(11.2, 132) months vs 48(24, 90)months, Z=-2.08, P=0.037], and the rate of pulmonary arterial hypertension (50.0% vs 11.5%, χ2=11.07, P<0.001) and renal insufficiency(50.0% vs 3.8%, χ2=20.78, P<0.001) in the positive group were significantly higher than those in the negative group. Further Logistic regression analysis revealed that long course of disease [ OR (95% CI) =1.011 (1.001, 1.021), P=0.031], pulmonary arterial hypertension [ OR (95% CI) =5.431, 95% CI (1.065, 27.710), P=0.042] and renal insufficiency [ OR (95% CI) =30.444 (4.139, 223.938), P<0.001] were risk factors for SSc associated heart disease. ③Nail-fold videocapillaroscopy (NVC) was checked in 63 patients. The difference of abnormal NVC changes between the two groups was statistically significant (93.3% vs 58.3%, χ2=5.87, P=0.013). The total number of capillaries in the positive group was significantly less than that in the negative group [3.5(2, 4.8) vs 6 (5, 7), Z=-2.97, P=0.003]. Further ROC curve analysis showed that the total number of capillaries less than 4.5 predicted the occurrence of cardiac involvement (sensitivity was 80.0%, specificity was 83.8%), and the area under the ROC curve (95% CI) was 0.805 (0.061, 1.000, P=0.003).④The transcriptome of a total of 11 SSc patients (including 6 in the positive group and 5 in the negative group) and 8 healthy controls were analyzed to obtain the synchronously down regulated gene TNFRSF13B. The differences between the three groups were statistically significant ( χ2=11.88, P=0.003), especially in the positive group and the healthy controls( χ2=11.19, P=0.004). Conclusion:SSc patients with long course of disease accompanied by PAH and renal insufficiency are prone to have heart involvement. Early capillary endoscopy is also helpful to predict the risk of heart involvement. Moreover, TNFRSF13B genetic testing is helpful but further study is needed.

Objective:To investigate the influencing of preoperative biliary drainage on surgery-related complications after pancreaticoduodenectomy.Methods:The retrospective case-control study was conducted. The clinical data of 267 patients with periampullary space-occupying lesion who were admitted to Beijing Friendship Hospital of Capital Medical University from January 2016 to July 2020 were collected. There were 166 males and 101 females, aged 61 (range, 54?84)years. Observation indicators: (1) comparison of preoperative situations in patients with and without preoperative biliary drainage; (2) comparison of intraoperative and postoperative situations in patients with and without preoperative biliary drainage; (3) methods and efficacy of preoperative biliary drainage; (4) factors influencing surgery-related complications after pancreaticoduodenec-tomy. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, and comparison between groups was conducted using the t test. Measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M(rang) or M( Q1, Q3), and comparison between groups was conducted using the Mann-Whitney U test. Count data were described as absolute numbers or percentages, and comparison between groups was conducted using the chi-square test. Univariate analysis was conducted using the corresponding statistical methods based on data type. Multivariate analysis was conducted using the Logistic stepwise regression model. Results:(1) Comparison of preoperative situations in patients with and without preoperative biliary drainage. Of the 267 patients, there were 104 cases with preoperative biliary drainage and 163 cases without preoperative biliary drainage. Cases with malignant tumor, cases with borderline tumor, cases with chronic pancreatitis were 89, 13, 2 in patients with preoperative biliary drainage, versus 111, 41, 11 in patients without preoperative biliary drainage, showing significant differences in pathology type between them ( χ2=10.652, P<0.05). (2) Comparison of intraoperative and postoperative situations in patients with and without preoperative biliary drainage. There was no significant difference in operation time, volume of intra-operative blood loss, postoperative complications, grade B pancreatic fistula, grade C pancreatic fistula, biliary leakage, abdominal or gastrointestinal bleeding, incidence of abdominal infection, white blood cell count at postoperative day 1, white blood cell count at postoperative day 3, neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio at postoperative day 1, neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio at postoperative day 3, C-reactive protein-albumin ratio at postoperative day 1, C-reactive protein-albumin ratio at post-operative day 3, duration of hospital stay between the 104 patients with preoperative biliary drainage and the 163 patients without preoperative biliary drainage ( P>0.05). (3) Methods and efficacy of preoperative biliary drainage. Of the 104 patients with preoperative biliary drainage, there were 40 cases receiving endoscopic nasobiliary drainage with drainage time as (12±2)days, there were 38 cases receiving percutaneous transhepatic cholangial drainage with drainage time as (7±1)days, and there were 26 cases receiving endoscopic retrograde biliary drainage with drainage time as (19±2)days. The total bilirubin, direct bilirubin, aspartate transaminase, alanine aminotrans-ferase in 104 patients were (223±18)μmol/L, (134±11)μmol/L, (112±10)U/L, (160±16)U/L before biliary drainage and (144±13)μmol/L, (84±8)μmol/L, (79±8)U/L, (109±12)U/L after biliary drainage, showing significant differences in the above indicators ( t=3.544, 3.608, 2.523, 2.509, P<0.05). (4) Factors influencing surgery-related complications after pancreatocoduodenectomy. Results of multi-variate analysis showed that operation time was an independent factor influencing surgery-related complications after pancreaticoduodenectomy ( odds ratio=1.005, 95% confidence interval as 1.002?1.008, P<0.05). Conclusions:Preoperative biliary drainage does not increase the incidence of complications related to pancreaticoduodenectomy in patients with periampullary space-occupying lesion. Operation time is an independent factor influencing postoperative surgery-related complications.

With the development of modern sequencing techniques and bioinformatics, genomes that were once thought to be noncoding have been found to encode abundant functional micropeptides (miPs), a kind of small polypeptides. Although miPs are difficult to analyze and identify, a number of studies have begun to focus on them. More and more miPs have been revealed as essential for energy metabolism homeostasis, immune regulation, and tumor growth and development. Many reports have shown that miPs are especially essential for regulating glucose and lipid metabolism and regulating mitochondrial function. MiPs are also involved in the progression of related diseases. This paper reviews the sources and identification of miPs, as well as the functional significance of miPs for metabolism-related diseases, with the aim of revealing their potential clinical applications.

Objective:To investigate the effect of the duration of preoperative biliary drainage on postoperative complications after pancreaticoduodenectomy.Methods:The clinical data of 102 patients with benign and malignant hepatopancreatic ductal periampullary tumors who underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy and preoperative biliary drainage in Beijing Friendship Hospital, Capital Medical University from January 2016 to July 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. According to the median duration of preoperative biliary drainage, the patients were divided into short-term drainage group (≤ the median duration of biliary drainage) and long-term drainage group (> the median duration of biliary drainage). The general data, the effect of biliary drainage, inflammation-related indicators and postoperative complications were compared between the two groups. Multivariate logistic regression was used to screen the risk factors related to the postoperative severe complications.Results:Of the 102 patients, 68 (66.7%) were males and 34 (33.3%) were females, with a median age of 63 years (43-80 years). The median duration of preoperative biliary drainage was 14 d. There were 68 patients in short-term drainage group and 34 patients in long-term drainage group. There were no statistically significant differences in age, gender, body mass index (BMI), hypertension, diabetes mellitus, surgery history of upper abdominal, American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) grade, carcinoembryonic antigen, carbohydrate antigen 125, alpha-fetoprotein, prothrombin time, pancreaticojejunostomy method, operation time, and pathological type between the two groups (all P > 0.05). However, patients in long-term drainage group had higher conversion rate, more blood loss and longer hospital stay compared with those in short-term drainage group (all P < 0.05). Before biliary drainage, alanine aminotransferase (ALT) level in short-term drainage group was higher than that in long-term drainage group ( Z = -2.59, P = 0.009), and there were no statistically significant differences in aspartate aminotransferase (AST), albumin (ALB), total bilirubin (TB) and direct bilirubin (DB) levels between the two groups before biliary drainage (all P > 0.05). After biliary drainage, DB in short-term drainage group was higher than that in long-term drainage group ( Z = -3.34, P = 0.001), and there was no statistically significant difference in ALT, AST, ALB, TB levels between the two groups (all P > 0.05). There were no statistically significant differences in the levels of white blood cells, neutrophils, lymphocytes and the ratio of neutrophils to lymphocytes between the two groups on the 1st and 3rd day after the operation (all P > 0.05). The total incidence of postoperative related complications in short-term drainage group and long-term drainage group was 63.2% (43/68), 70.6% (24/34), respectively, and the difference was statistically significant ( χ2 = 0.54, P = 0.461); the incidences of bile leakage, abdominal or gastrointestinal bleeding, intra-abdominal infection, delayed gastric emptying, all grades of pancreatic leakage, grade B and C pancreatic leakage were not statistically different between the two groups (all P > 0.05); the incidence of severe postoperative related complications in short-term drainage group was higher than that in long-term drainage group [27.9% (19/68) vs. 8.8% (3/34), χ2 = 4.90, P = 0.027]. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the long-term preoperative biliary drainage was an independent protective factor for postoperative severe complications (long-term drainage vs. short-term drainage: OR = 0.253, 95% CI 0.066-0.975, P = 0.046), while BMI ( OR = 1.174, 95% CI 0.986-1.398, P = 0.071) and pathological type (benign or borderline vs. malignant tumor: OR = 0.247, 95% CI 0.043-1.419, P = 0.117) were not independent influencing factors for postoperative severe complications. Conclusions:Short-term biliary drainage (≤14 d) is a risk factor for postoperative severe complications in patients with hepatopancreatic ductal periampullary tumor undergoing preoperative biliary drainage. Preoperative biliary drainage time is not associated with postoperative total complications, pancreatic leakage, bile leakage, abdominal or gastrointestinal bleeding, intra-abdominal infection, delayed gastric emptying.

OBJE CTIVE To inv estigate the antibiotic use and rationality for children in community health service institutions from Beijing ，and to provide reference for promoting rational use of antibiotics in primary healthcare institutions. METHODS All the prescriptions for children from primary healthcare institutions in 2019 were extracted from prescription review system of community health service institutions in Beijing. The use of antibiotics was described according to the related indicators of the World Health Organization/International Network for Rational Use of Drug （WHO/INRUD）. The structure of antibiotics use was analyzed according to the anatomical therapeutic chemical （ATC）classification as well as the WHO AWaRe classification and diagnosis. RESULTS A total of 288 primary healthcare institutions and 10 422 prescriptions for children were included. The number of institutions in high-income areas ，middle-income areas and low-income areas were 119，80 and 89 respectively，and the number of prescriptions involved were 2 430，2 163 and 5 829 respectively，including 1 447 prescriptions involving antibiotics （13.9％）. Among 1 447 prescriptions，the rate of prescriptions involving combined use of antibiotics was 1.4％（20 pieces）；the rate of prescriptions involving antibiotics injection was 9.7％（141 pieces）；4.8％ antibiotics prescriptions were rated as unreasonable （69 pieces）. The three most commonly used antibiotics were the macrolides （40.2％），the second-generation cephalosporins （26.5％） and the third-generati on cephalosporins （23.4％）. The proportion of antibioti cs prescriptions from groups of access ，caution， reserve and not recommended were 9.1％，92.1％，0.3％，and 0， respectively. The rate of antibiotics prescriptions fortonsillitis was the highest （31.9％ ）. Among 69 irrationalantibiotics prescriptions ，main of them were irrational drug use （56 pieces，81.2％）. CONCLUSIONS The rate of antibiotics prescriptions for children in primary healthcare institutions from Beijing is lower than the standard of WHO antibiotics prescription rate （20.0％-26.8％），but the use rate of antibiotics at caution grade is too high.

OBJECTIVE To provide reference and suggestions for dynamic adjustment of classification management lists for clinical use of antibiotics and the promotion of rational use of antibiotics. METHODS The latest version of provincial classification management lists for clinical use of antibiotics were aggregated into the “national list”， which was compared with 2021 WHO AWaRe classification list of antibiotics （hereinafter referred as to “AWaRe classification list”） to make a descriptive statistical analysis about the number of different classes of antibiotics in the two lists and their differences. RESULTS Based on the different classification principles， 262 kinds of antibiotic preparations in the national list were classified into non-restricted （84）， restricted （83） and highly-restricted classes （95）， and 258 kinds in the AWaRe classification list were classified into access （87）， watch （142） and reserve classes （29）； 182 kinds of antibiotic preparations were both included in the two lists. In the national list， among the non-restricted antibiotic preparations， 36 kinds belonged to access class， 30 belonged to watch class and 1 belonged to reserve class； among restricted antibiotic preparations， 7 belonged to access class， 46 kinds belonged to watch class and 3 belonged to reserve class； among highly-restricted antibiotic 82805019。E-mail：yyy211anne@163.com preparations， 9 belonged to access class， 35 belonged to watch class and 15 kinds belonged to reserve class. Among them， 91 kinds of antibiotic preparations were not recommended by WHO （20 kinds） or not included in the AWaRe classification list （71 kinds）. CONCLUSIONS The classification methods of two lists are different in classification principles and grading of some similar drugs. The classification management list of antibiotics is one of the key points of antibiotics management， more research is needed in the future to provide sufficient evidence for optimizing antibiotics classification management.
