ObjectiveTo achieve high-dimensional prediction of class imbalanced of adverse drug reaction(ADR) of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM) and to classify and identify risk factors affecting the occurrence of ADR based on the post-marketing safety data of TCM monitored centrally in real world hospitals. MethodThe ensemble clustering resampling combined with regularized Group Lasso regression was used to perform high-dimensional balancing of ADR class-imbalanced data, and then to integrate the balanced datasets to achieve ADR prediction and the risk factor identification by category. ResultA practical example study of the proposed method on a monitoring data of TCM injection performed that the accuracy of the ADR prediction, the prediction sensitivity, the prediction specificity and the area under receiver operating characteristic curve(AUC) were all above 0.8 on the test set. Meanwhile, 40 risk factors affecting the occurrence of ADR were screened out from total 600 high-dimensional variables. And the effect of risk factors on the occurrence of ADR was identified by classification weighting. The important risk factors were classified as follows:past history, medication information, name of combined drugs, disease status, number of combined drugs and personal data. ConclusionIn the real world data of rare ADR with a large amount of clinical variables, this paper realized accurate ADR prediction on high-dimensional and class imbalanced condition, and classified and identified the key risk factors and their clinical significance of categories, so as to provide risk early warning for clinical rational drug use and combined drug use, as well as scientific basis for reevaluation of safety of post-marketing TCM.

Objective:To evaluate the association between arterial lactate levels and complications within 30 days postoperatively in elderly patients undergoing pancreaticoduodenectomy.Methods:Elderly patients undergoing pancreaticoduodenectomy under selective general anesthesia in Beijing Hospital from July 2019 to December 2021 were enrolled.According to whether complications occurred within 30 days after operation, the patients were divided into complication group(C Group)and no complication group(N Group). General clinical data and lactic acid level before and after surgery were compared between the two groups.And the association between lactic acid level and complications within 30 days postoperatively was evaluated.Results:A total of 70 elderly patients were included in this study, of whom 22 patients had complications with proportion of 31.4%(22/70), including 2 cases of hemorrhage(2.9%, 2/70), one case of infection(1.4%, 1/70), 1 case of pneumonedema(1.4%, 1/70), 13 cases of pancreatic fistula(18.6%, 13/70), 5 cases of all-cause death postoperatively(7.1%, 5/70). There was no significant difference in baseline of arterial lactate level between two groups[0.70(0.50, 0.80)mmol/L vs.0.70(0.50, 1.20)mmol/L, Z=-1.150, P=0.250], while the lactate level at the end of the surgery was significantly higher in group C[1.60(0.90, 2.25)mmol/L]than in group N[1.00(0.80, 1.38)mmol/L]( Z=-2.396, P=0.017). The arterial lactate level at the end of the surgery was a risk factor for postoperative complications by multivariate analyses( OR=2.501, 95% CI: 1.154~5.418, P=0.020). Conclusions:Lactate level at the end of the surgery is related to early postoperative complications(within 30 days postoperatively)in elderly patients undergoing pancreaticoduodenectomy.Paying great attention to lactate monitoring at the end of the surgery may reduce the occurrence of perioperative complications in elderly patients undergoing pancreaticoduodenectomy.

OBJECTIVE:To establish the method for simultaneous determination of 5-fluorouracil(5-FU)and its metabolites 5-fluoro-5,6-dihydrouracil (5-FUH2) in human plasma ,and apply it in the clinic. METHODS :After plasma samples were processed twice by ethyl acetate ,UPLC-MS/MS method was adopted using 5-bromouracil (5-Bru) as internal standard. The determination was performed on Acquity UPLC HSS T 3 column with mobile phase consisted of methanol-water (30 ∶ 70,V/V)at the flow rate of 0.3 mL/min. The column temperature was 20 ℃,and sample size was 5 μL. An electrospray ion source was used to carry out negative ion scanning with multiple reaction monitoring. The capillary voltage was 1.5 kV;the taper hole voltage was 20 V;the desolvent temperature was 450 ℃;the desolvent air flow was 850 L/h;the cone hole gas velocity was 50 L/h. The ion transitions for quantitative analysis were m/z 129.00→41.90(5-FU),m/z 130.87→82.92(5-FUH2),m/z 189.00→42.10(5-Bru), respectively. From Aug. to Oct. 2020,10 patients with advanced colorectal cancer were treated with continuous intravenous drip of 5-FU for 46 hours were collected from Harbin Medicinal University Cancer Hospital. Steady-state plasma concentration of 5-FU and plasma concentration of 5-FUH2 were determined at 18-30 h of continuous intravenous drip. The area under the curve (AUC)for 5-FU and concentration ratio of 5-FUH2/5-FU were calculated. RESULTS :The linear range of 5-FU and 5-FUH2 were 20 to 1 000 μg/mL(R 2>0.990). The quantification limits were 20 ng/mL. RSDs of precision test were all lower than 20%,and relative error ranged ±10%. The extraction recovery and matrix effects didn ’t affect the determination of substance to be measured. Among 10 patients with advanced colorectal cancer ,the steady-state concentration of 5-FU were 180.04-622.83 ng/mL,and AUC of 5-FU ranged from 8.28 to 28.65 mg·h/L. The concentration of 5-FUH2 ranged 336.48-948.43 ng/mL,and concentration ratio of 5-FUH2/ 5-FU ranged 0.93-4.21. AUC of 5-FU in 10 patients had about 3-4 fold individual differences. CONCLUSIONS :The established method has good precision and accuracy ,high sensitivity ,and simple operation. It can be used for plasma monitoring of 5-FU in patients with advanced colorectal cancer.

Objective:
To explore how to select osteotomy line and its significance in mandibular distraction osteogenesis in infants and young children.
Methods:
From May 2013 to July 2018, 208 infants and young children with mandibular deformity were admitted to the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Guangzhou Women and Children Medical Center, including 131 males and 77 females, with the age range of 8 days to 4 years, mean age of 6 months. Their clinical records were retrospectively analyzed. There were 162 cases of Robin sequence, 37 cases of the first and branchial arch anomalies, 2 cases of Treacher-Collins syndrome, and 7 cases of other congenital malformations. During the distraction osteogenesis, different osteotomy lines were selected according to the characteristics of the mandibular deformity: (1) For short mandibular body, the straight osteotomy line was used to extend the mandibular body. (2) For short mandibular ramus, a polygonal osteotomy line was used to extend the ramus. (3) For the increased mandibular angle, a curved osteotomy line was used to change the angulation.
Results:
Linear osteotomy was used in 38 patients, polygonal line osteotomy were used in 129 patients, and curved osteotomy was performed in 41 patients. Among them, 4 patients with linear osteotomy had deciduous embryo injury, 6 patients with linear osteotomy and 2 patients with polygonal osteotomy had open occlusion, and patients with curved osteotomy did not have tooth and mandible damage, or malocclusion. All patients were followed up for 3 months to 5 years. The average follow-up time was 6.2 months. All osteotomy healed well, without osteonecrosis or nonunion.
Conclusions
For the mandibular distraction osteogenesis, osteotomy line could be individualized, according to the characteristics of mandibular deformity of infants and young children, which can reduce complications such as dental damage and open occlusion.
