OBJECTIVE To study active components and antitussive effect of aboveground part of Pinellia ternata (non- medicinal stems and leaves), and compare them with the underground part of P. ternata (medicinal underground tubers), providing scientific basis for the comprehensive utilization and product development of P. ternata. METHODS TLC, GC, HPLC and UPLC- MS/MS were used for qualitative and quantitative analysis of amino acids, volatile oil, total flavonoids and succinic acid from the aboveground and underground parts of P. ternata. The antitussive effects of the aboveground and underground parts of P. ternata were compared and studied through cough inducing experiment with concentrated ammonia water. RESULTS Results of TLC showed that at the corresponding positions on the chromatograms of the reference substances of P. ternata, and arginine, alanine, valine, leucine and rutin control, the aboveground and underground parts of P. ternata showed spots of the same color. Results of GC showed that the similarity among characteristic chromatograms of volatile oil from aboveground and underground parts of P. ternata was 0.767; results of HPLC and UPLC-MS/MS showed that compared with underground parts of P. ternata, the contents of succinic acid, quercetin, kaempferol and isorhamnetin increased by 0.15%, 0.15%, 0.09% and 0.03%, and aspartate content decreased by 2.5 mg/g. Pharmacodynamics results showed that compared with model control group, the cough incubation period of rats was prolonged significantly in administration groups (P<0.05), and the cough frequency within 3 min was significantly decreased (P<0.05); there was no statistical significance in the cough frequency within 3 min among administration groups (P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS The composition of amino acids, volatile oils and total flavonoids in aboveground part of P. ternata are similar to underground part of P. ternata, while the content of aspartic acid is lower than that in underground part. The aboveground part of P. ternata can prolong the cough incubation period of rats and reduce the number of coughs, which has a certain antitussive effect, but the effect is slightly weaker than that of the underground part.

Objective:To analyze the trend of disease burden of oral cancer attributable to smoking in China from 1990 to 2019, and predict the mortality trend of oral cancer from 2020 to 2034, providing scientific basis for formulating targeted oral cancer prevention and treatment strategy to achieve the goal of "Healthy China 2030".Methods:Using partial data on the global burden of disease in China in 2019, attributive death and disability adjusted life year (DALY) were used to describe. The trend of changes in the burden of oral cancer disease attributed to smoking was analyzed by using the Joinpoint regression model to estimate the annual average percentage change (AAPC) of age standardized mortality and DALY rates. Meanwhile, the Bayesian age-period- cohort model is used to predict oral cancer deaths and DALY trends attributed to smoking over the next 15 years.Results:The age-standardized mortality rate and DALY rate in China from 1990 to 2019 showed an overall upward trend, with an average annual increase of 1.49% (95 %CI: 1.34%-1.65%, P<0.001) and 1.41% (95 %CI: 1.24%-1.59%, P<0.001) respectively, higher than around the earth and in regions with different socio-demographic index (SDI). In 2019, 46.74% (10 584/22 642) of oral cancer deaths in China were attributed to smoking. Compared to 1990, the number of attributed deaths in 2019 increased by 293.75% (7 896/2 688), while DALY increased by 257.97% (189 039/73 280). Moreover, the growth rates of attributed deaths and DALY in males [304.95% (7 584/2 487) and 265.60% (183 349/69 033), respectively] were significantly higher than those in females [154.73% (311/201) and 133.95% (5 690/4 248), respectively] ( P<0.001). The age group results showed that the proportion of deaths and DALY gradually transitioned towards the elderly (>60 years old). The expected number of deaths would increase from 10 731 in 2020 to 14 125 in 2034, with a rise of 31.63% (3 394/10 731). Simultaneously, DALY would increase from 267 064 person years in 2020 to 326 634 person years in 2034, with a rise of 22.31% (59 570/267 064). Conclusions:From 1990 to 2019, the burden of oral cancer diseases attributed to smoking in China showed an increasing trend, with a higher growth rates than in the global and different SDI regions. There were differences in gender and age, and the burden of oral cancer diseases attributed to smoking in China would continue to increase in the next 15 years. It is necessary to educate on the adverse effects of tobacco consumption and to conduct vigilant oral self-examination among high-risk groups to help early detection and intervention at the same time.

Objective:Nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR) was used to detect the species and content of metabolites in urine of patients with inherited metabolic diseases, and to explore the application value of NMR technology in the diagnosis of inherited metabolic diseases.Methods:Urine samples were collected from 20 patients with inherited metabolic diseases diagnosed in Xinhua Hospital, Shanghai Jiaotong University School of Medicine from March to June 2019, including 9 cases of methylmalonic acidemia (MMA). NMR pulse length-based concentration determination and Gas chromatography mass spectrometry (GC/MS) semi-quantitative method were used to detect the composition of metabolites in urine samples of patients with inherited metabolic diseases, and the levels of abnormal metabolites in the two methods were analyzed.Results:NMR technology can detect the levels of characteristic metabolites significantly increased in the urine of patients with MMA, isovalerinemia, glutaric acidemia, propionic acidemia, 3-methylcrotonyl-CoA carboxylase deficiency, ornithine carbamyltransferase deficiency, Citrin deficiency, Canavan disease, tyrosinemia and lysinuria protein intolerance. The average is 8 times of the upper limit of the reference value, and the highest is 545 times. Compared to GC/MS, NMR technology can detect the levels of various metabolites such as organic acids, amino acids and sugars. In 9 cases of untreated MMA,the median levels of methylmalonic acid and 3-hydroxypropionic acid in NMR [1 800 (180-12 000) and 50 (0-270) mmol/mol Cr] were higher than the reference values (0-31, 0-35). The median levels of methylmalonic acid and methylmalonic acid in GC/MS [136.56 (43.79-518.67) and 4.87 (1.52-7.52)] were higher than the reference values (0-4 and 0-0.7).Conclusions:NMR and GC/MS technologies are specific for the diagnosis of organic acidemia. The primary component detected by GC/MS is organic acid. NMR technology can break through this limitation and measure the level of various metabolites in urine, which provides a more theoretical basis for the diagnosis and research of inherited metabolic disease.

Objective:To observe the changes of renal function in critically ill patients after using vancomycin and analyze the renal protective effect of reduced glutathione (GSH) on vancomycin nephrotoxicity.Methods:The clinical data of patients with severe infection who were administered with vancomycin or plus infusion of GSH admitted to intensive care unit (ICU) of Ruijin Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine from January 2012 to October 2019 were collected during the study period, and the patients were divided into only vancomycin group and vancomycin combined with GSH group. The gender, age, body weight, underlying diseases, clinical diagnosis, severity score, renal function before and after taking the medicine, average daily dose and treatment duration of vancomycin and GSH, length of ICU stay and clinical outcomes were recorded and analyzed.Results:A total of 217 patients were enrolled, with 127 patients in the only vancomycin group, and 90 in the combination with GSH group. There was no statistically significant difference between the two groups in terms of gender, body weight, duration of vancomycin treatment, history of chronic kidney disease, and ICU mortality. The main causes of 217 patients admitted to the ICU were lung infection, sepsis/septic shock, and severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) and so on. The majority of patients in only vancomycin group had lung infections (63.0%), while the main etiology in combination with GSH group was SAP (46.7%). Compared with the only vancomycin group, the acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ (APACHE Ⅱ) score in the combination with GSH group significantly decreased [15.0 (10.5, 21.0) vs. 27.0 (20.0, 31.0), P < 0.01], but the quick sequential organ failure assessment (qSOFA) score was significantly higher [1.0 (0, 1.0) vs. 0 (0, 0.2), P < 0.01], the basic renal function was poorer [serum creatinine (SCr, μmol/L): 102.0 (64.7, 178.0) vs. 56.0 (42.0, 71.0), blood urea nitrogen (BUN, mmol/L): 11.5 (6.7, 18.4) vs. 4.70 (3.5, 8.1), both P < 0.05], and the average daily dose of vancomycin was lower (mg·kg -1·d -1: 22.22±10.09 vs. 25.51±9.56, P < 0.05). The renal function of patients was getting worse significantly after vancomycin usage as compared with before [SCr (μmol/L): 68.0 (50.3, 103.4) vs. 56.0 (42.0, 71.0), BUN (mmol/L): 5.4 (3.6, 9.6) vs. 4.7 (3.5, 8.1), both P < 0.05]. However, the renal function indexes of the combination with GSH group were better than those before treatment [SCr (μmol/L): 81.0 (61.0, 129.0) vs. 102.0 (64.7, 178.0), P < 0.05; BUN (mmol/L): 8.4 (6.2, 17.8) vs. 11.5 (6.7, 18.4), P > 0.05], and the length of ICU stay was significantly shorter than that in the only vancomycin group [days: 29.0 (14.0, 54.2) vs. 37.0 (25.0, 55.0), P < 0.05]. Conclusions:The incidence of drug-induced renal injury caused by vancomycin is high. The GSH can significantly reduce their renal toxicity and shorten the length of hospital stay.

Objective:
To investigate the effect of pseudodeficiency alleles on the newborn screening of glycogen storage disease type Ⅱ(GSDⅡ) by using afluorometric enzymatic assay to determine acid α-glucosidase (GAA) activity in dried blood spot (DBS).
Methods:
A total of 30 507 newborns′ DBSs, obtained from Newborn Screening Center of Xinhua Hospital Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine from May to December 2017, were screened for GSD Ⅱ by fluorometric enzymatic assay of GAA activity. The suspected positive DBSs after the first and second screening were directly analyzed by Sanger sequencing of GAA to confirm the diagnosis. Retrospective analysis of 3 172 controls without GSDⅡand 36 GSD Ⅱ patients were conducted to investigate the carrier status of pseudodeficiency alleles. Statistical analysis of frequency of pseudodeficiency alleles were carried out by Chi-square test or Fisher exact probability test.
Results:
GAA activity of 30 507 newborns showed a positively skewed distribution.Twenty-nine cases of newborns, suspected to be GSDⅡwere confirmed to be normal with genetic analysis of the original DBSs. Among the 29 suspected positive cases, 24 cases were homozygous for pseudodeficiency alleles c.[1726A/A; 2065A/A], and the other 5 cases were c.[1726G/A; 2065G/A] heterozygote. The frequency of c.1726G>Ahomozygote in 3 172 non-GSD Ⅱcontrols was 2.08% (66/3 172), and c.1726G>A homozygote occurred in allelic conjunction with c.2065G>Ahomozygote. Frequency of c.[1726A; 2065A] haplotype in 3 172 controls was 3.2%(206/6 344). Frequency of c.[1726A/A; 2065A/A] homozygote in 36 GSDⅡpatients (16.67%, 6/36) was significantly higher than that in non-GSD Ⅱcontrols(2.08%, 66/3 172) (χ2=34.517,
