In recent years, gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) have increased incidence and mortality, and most GIST is caused by the activation mutation of the c-KIT gene. Therefore, c-KIT has become a promising therapeutic target of GIST. At present, the drugs approved for the treatment of GIST including imatinib, sunitinib, regorafenib and ripretinib, are mostly prone to developing resistance and accompanied by various degrees of adverse reactions. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop new c-KIT inhibitors to solve the problem of resistance. In this study, we investigated the anti-tumor effect of a novel c-KIT inhibitor PN17-1 on gastrointestinal stromal tumor GIST-882 cells in vitro. We found that PN17-1 significantly inhibited the proliferation, colony formation and migration ability of GIST-882 cells, and significantly downregulated the protein expression levels of p-c-KIT and its downstream signals p-AKT, p-STAT5 and p-ERK in GIST-882 cells. In addition, PN17-1 induced apoptosis in GIST-882 cells, and the apoptosis may be mainly related to the mitochondrial-dependent endogenous pathway. In conclusion, the novel c-KIT inhibitor PN17-1 is a promising anti-GIST drug, and this study provides new ideas for further development of c-KIT inhibitors in the future.

【Objective】 To explore the risk factors for the production of anti-HLA antibodies in patients with hematological diseases before hematopoietic stemcell transplantation. 【Methods】 The results and clinical data of 1 008 patients with hematological diseases in our hospital who underwent anti-HLA antibody testing were collected by using Luminex technology platform before transplantation from 2016 to 2018 for statistical analysis. 【Results】 The total positive rate of anti-HLA antibodies in 1 008 patients was 24.08%. Multivariate analysis showed that independent risk factors associated with the production of anti-HLA antibodies included age≥30 years old(P=0.046, OR1.467, 95%CI1.007-2.136), time from disease diagnosis to antibody testing≥41 days(P=0.000, OR1.830, 95%CI1.306-2.565), initial platelet count<20×10⁹/L(P=0.020, OR1.543, 95%CI1.072-2.220), prior pregnancy(P=0.000, OR5.187, 95%CI3.689-7.293), transfusions before admission(P=0.001, OR1.762, 95%CI1.257-2.470)and total platelet transfusion volumes after admission≥30 U(P=0.000, OR2.352, 95%CI1.638-3.376). Age ≥30 years old(P=0.023, OR=1.839, 95%CI1.088-3.108)and prior pregnancy(P=0.042, OR=5.258, 95%CI1.062-26.038)are associated with the production of anti-HLA class Ⅰ and class Ⅱ antibodies, respectively. The time from disease diagnosis to antibody testing≥41 days(P=0.000, OR=2.873, 95%CI1.612-5.119), initial platelet count<20×10⁹/L(P=0.008, OR=2.164, 95%CI1.225-3.822), prior pregnancy(P=0.002, OR=6.734, 95%CI1.993-22.751), transfusions before admission(P=0.001, OR=2.746, 95%CI1.531-4.925)and total platelet transfusion volumes after admission>30 U(P=0.006, OR=3.459, 95%CI1.416-8.451)are associated with the production of anti-HLA class Ⅰ and Ⅱ antibodies. 【Conclusion】 Older age, longer course of disease, lower PLT count, history of pregnancy and blood transfusion, and higher total amount of PLT transfusion are risk factors which affect the production of anti-HLA antibodies.Therefore, it is advisable to test for anti-HLA antibodies according to the situation before transplantation, which is of great value in guiding donor selection, monitoring antibody changes and improving transplant prognosis.

Objective:To explore the diagnostic value of first-trimester and mid-trimester ultrasound in screening fetal pentalogy of Cantrell, and to analyze missed and misdiagnosed cases.Methods:The fetal ultrasound image characteristics of pentalogy of Cantrell diagnosed in the Affiliated Suzhou Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from March 2018 to November 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. The necessary sections and key features of ultrasound images for diagnosing the disease in first-trimester and mid-trimester were summarized. The diagnostic value of ultrasound screenings in first-trimester and mid-trimester was analyzed, and the progression of the disease during pregnancy was understood, the missed diagnosis rate and misdiagnosis rate were calculated, and the reasons for missing diagnosis were analyzed. All fetuses were followed up to birth or induction of labor.Pentalogy of Cantrell was divided into types Ⅰ, Ⅱ, and Ⅲ according to Toyama′s research.Results:Among the 120 190 fetuses, 13 cases of pentalogy of Cantrell were diagnosed by ultrasound in first-trimester and mid-trimester. Ultrasound predominantly showed the fetal heart being malpositioned outside the chest and the fetal abdominal contents bulging outside the abdominal cavity, and the sternumal echo was partially or completely missed in some cases. All 13 cases were confirmed by follow-up, including 1 case of type Ⅱ, and 12 cases of type Ⅲ. In addition, 1 missed case of type Ⅱ pentalogy of Cantrell was followed up after birth. The correct diagnostic rates of fetal pentalogy of Cantrell using standard ultrasound sections during the first-trimester and mid-trimester were 99.9% and 100%, the sensitivity were 88.9% and 100%, the specificity were both 100%, the positive predictive values were both 100%, and the negative predictive values were 99.9% and 100%, respectively.Conclusions:First-trimester and mid-trimester ultrasound screenings have high diagnostic accuracy for pentalogy of Cantrell, and early detection and early diagnosis are of great clinical significance for the guidance of pregnancy outcomes.

With the increasing proportion of human papilloma virus(HPV)infection in the pathogenic factors of oro-pharyngeal cancer,a series of changes have occurred in the surgical treatment.While the treatment mode has been im-proved,there are still many problems,including the inconsistency between diagnosis and treatment modes,the lack of popularization of reconstruction technology,the imperfect post-treatment rehabilitation system,and the lack of effective preventive measures.Especially in terms of treatment mode for early oropharyngeal cancer,there is no unified conclu-sion whether it is surgery alone or radiotherapy alone,and whether robotic minimally invasive surgery has better func-tional protection than radiotherapy.For advanced oropharyngeal cancer,there is greater controversy over the treatment mode.It is still unclear whether to adopt a non-surgical treatment mode of synchronous chemoradiotherapy or induction chemotherapy combined with synchronous chemoradiotherapy,or a treatment mode of surgery combined with postopera-tive chemoradiotherapy.In order to standardize the surgical treatment of oropharyngeal cancer in China and clarify the indications for surgical treatment of oropharyngeal cancer,this expert consensus,based on the characteristics and treat-ment status of oropharyngeal cancer in China and combined with the international latest theories and practices,forms consensus opinions in multiple aspects of preoperative evaluation,surgical indication determination,primary tumor re-section,neck lymph node dissection,postoperative defect repair,postoperative complication management prognosis and follow-up of oropharyngeal cancer patients.The key points include:① Before the treatment of oropharyngeal cancer,the expression of P16 protein should be detected to clarify HPV status;② Perform enhanced magnetic resonance imaging of the maxillofacial region before surgery to evaluate the invasion of oropharyngeal cancer and guide precise surgical resec-tion of oropharyngeal cancer.Evaluating mouth opening and airway status is crucial for surgical approach decisions and postoperative risk prediction;③ For oropharyngeal cancer patients who have to undergo major surgery and cannot eat for one to two months,it is recommended to undergo percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy before surgery to effectively improve their nutritional intake during treatment;④ Early-stage oropharyngeal cancer patients may opt for either sur-gery alone or radiation therapy alone.For intermediate and advanced stages,HPV-related oropharyngeal cancer general-ly prioritizes radiation therapy,with concurrent chemotherapy considered based on tumor staging.Surgical treatment is recommended as the first choice for HPV unrelated oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma(including primary and re-current)and recurrent HPV related oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma after radiotherapy and chemotherapy;⑤ For primary exogenous T1-2 oropharyngeal cancer,direct surgery through the oral approach or da Vinci robotic sur-gery is preferred.For T3-4 patients with advanced oropharyngeal cancer,it is recommended to use temporary mandibu-lectomy approach and lateral pharyngotomy approach for surgery as appropriate;⑥ For cT1-2N0 oropharyngeal cancer patients with tumor invasion depth＞3 mm and cT3-4N0 HPV unrelated oropharyngeal cancer patients,selective neck dissection of levels ⅠB to Ⅳ is recommended.For cN+HPV unrelated oropharyngeal cancer patients,therapeutic neck dissection in regions Ⅰ-Ⅴ is advised;⑦ If PET-CT scan at 12 or more weeks after completion of radiation shows intense FDG uptake in any node,or imaging suggests continuous enlargement of lymph nodes,the patient should undergo neck dissection;⑧ For patients with suspected extracapsular invasion preoperatively,lymph node dissection should include removal of surrounding muscle and adipose connective tissue;⑨ The reconstruction of oropharyngeal cancer defects should follow the principle of reconstruction steps,with priority given to adjacent flaps,followed by distal pedicled flaps,and finally free flaps.The anterolateral thigh flap with abundant tissue can be used as the preferred flap for large-scale postoperative defects.

Atopic dermatitis(AD)is the most common chronic inflammatory skin disease.For decades,the treatment of AD has been limited to local corticosteroid or calcineurin inhibitors,and light therapy or systemic immunosuppressive drug for moderate to severe AD patients.With the in-depth study of the pathogenesis of AD,many local and systemic targeted therapy drugs are being developed,which may change the treatment options of AD.This review combination with the latest clinical trials give a summarize on the type,mechanism,efficacy and safety of biological targeted therapy for AD,to provide a theoretical basis for the individualized treatment of AD.

Objective:To understand the impact of diet on glycemic control in community-managed patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and provide evidence for implementing prevention strategies and measures for diabetes patients.Methods:Eight communities were randomly selected from Changshu and Wuhan in 2015, and T2DM patients managed in the community were selected to conduct questionnaire surveys, physical measurements, and blood glucose testing. Factor analysis was used to obtain dietary patterns. A binary logistic regression model was used to analyze the factors affecting glycemic control.Results:Finally, 1 818 T2DM patients were included, and the control rate of FPG was 57.59% (95% CI: 55.30%-59.86%), and the control rate of 2 h postprandial blood glucose (2 h PBG) was 24.90% (95% CI: 22.93%- 26.91%). Five dietary patterns were obtained by factor analysis: animal food pattern, fruit-aquatic products-potato patterns, vegetable-grain pattern, egg-milk-bean pattern, and oil-salt patterns. No-conditional multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that after adjusting for confounding factors, the reduced probability of FPG control was related to animal food pattern ( OR=0.71, 95% CI: 0.52-0.98) and fruit-aquatic products-potato patterns ( OR=0.71, 95% CI: 0.51-0.97). The decrease in the 2 h PBG control probability was related to fruit-aquatic products-potato patterns ( OR=0.60, 95% CI: 0.40-0.90). The increased probability of FPG and 2 h postprandial glucose control were both related to vegetable-grain pattern ( OR=1.41, 95% CI: 1.03-1.94; OR=1.68, 95% CI: 1.13-2.51) and egg-milk-bean pattern ( OR=1.75, 95% CI: 1.25-2.46; OR=1.56, 95% CI: 1.00-2.42). Compared with the Q4 group of egg-milk-bean pattern, the FPG control rate of the combination of "fruit-aquatic products-potato pattern ( Q4 group), vegetable-grain pattern ( Q2 group), egg-milk-bean pattern ( Q3 group)" was higher ( OR=6.79, 95% CI: 1.15-40.23, P=0.035). Compared with the Q4 group of vegetable-grain pattern, the combination of "fruit-aquatic products-potato pattern ( Q4 group), vegetable-grain pattern ( Q3 group), egg-milk-bean pattern ( Q2 group), oil-salt pattern ( Q2 group)" had higher control rate of 2 h PBG ( OR=12.78, 95% CI: 1.26-130.05, P=0.031). Conclusions:A proper combination of dietary patterns and dietary patterns are more conducive to the control of FPG and 2 h PBG in T2DM patients managed in the communities of Wuhan and Changshu. Patient nutrition education should be strengthened, and the food-matching ability of patients should be improved.

Objective:To investigate the effect of peripheral blood methylation hyaluronoglucosaminidase 2 (HYAL2) before initial chemotherapy in Ⅱ to Ⅲ rectal cancer patients undergoing adjuvant chemotherapy after surgery.Methods:The clinical data of 98 patients with Ⅱ to Ⅲ rectal cancer from May 2019 to May 2021 in Sinopharm Dongfeng General Hospital, Hubei University of Medicine were retrospectively analyzed. All patients underwent adjuvant chemotherapy after radical surgery. The clinical characteristics of patients were record. The peripheral blood level of methylation HYAL2 before initial chemotherapy was detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction. The cut-off value of peripheral blood methylation HYAL2 level was determined by X-tile 3.6.1 software. Multivariate Cox regression was used to analyze the independent risk factors of overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) in patients with Ⅱ to Ⅲ rectal cancer. Kaplan-Meier survival curve was drawn to analyze the survival status in Ⅱ to Ⅲ rectal cancer patients with different peripheral blood level of methylation HYAL2. The efficacy of peripheral blood level of methylation HYAL2 in predicting the DFD and OS in patients with Ⅱ to Ⅲ rectal cancer was evaluated by the receiver operating characteristics (ROC) curve.Results:The peripheral blood level of methylation HYAL2 in 98 patients with Ⅱ to Ⅲ rectal cancer before initial chemotherapy was (45.13 ± 12.13)%, and the cut-off for evaluating OS was 43.18% by X-tile 3.6.1 software. Among them, 66 cases were high expression (peripheral blood level of methylation HYAL2 ≥43.18%), and 32 cases were low expression (<43.18%). The tumor diameter and TNM stage were the affect factors of peripheral blood level of methylation HYAL2 in patients with Ⅱ to Ⅲ rectal cancer ( P<0.05); the peripheral blood level of methylation HYAL2 was not related to gender, age, differentiation degree, lymph node metastasis and depth of invasion ( P>0.05). Multivariate Cox regression analysis result showed that TNM stage and peripheral blood level of methylation HYAL2 were the independent risk factors of OS in patients with Ⅱ to Ⅲ rectal cancer ( HR = 0.451 and 1.697, 95% CI 0.204 to 1.001 and 0.309 to 2.787, P<0.05); the peripheral blood level of methylation HYAL2 was an independent risk factor of DFS in patients with Ⅱ to Ⅲ rectal cancer ( HR = 1.027, 95% CI 0.146 to 1.943, P<0.05). Kaplan-Meier survival curve analysis result showed that the median OS and DFS in patients with low peripheral blood level of methylation HYAL2 were significantly longer than those in patients with high peripheral blood level of methylation HYAL2 (29 months vs. 21 months and 26 months vs. 21 months), and there were statistical differences (log-rank χ2 = 12.57 and 8.66, P<0.05). ROC curve analysis result showed that the area under curve (AUC) of peripheral blood level of methylation HYAL2 to predict the OS in patients with Ⅱ to Ⅲ rectal cancer was 0.882 (95% CI 0.801 to 0.938), with the specificity of 65.67% and the sensitivity of 99.45%; the AUC of peripheral blood level of methylation HYAL2 to predict the DFS in patients with Ⅱ to Ⅲ rectal cancer was 0.847 (95% CI 0.760 to 0.913), with the specificity of 62.90% and the sensitivity of 97.22%. Conclusions:The peripheral blood level of methylation HYAL2 before initial chemotherapy is an independent risk factor of prognosis in Ⅱ to Ⅲ rectal cancer patients undergoing adjuvant chemotherapy after surgery, and it can serve as an index for prognostic evaluation.

Objective To summarize the clinical characteristics and genetic variations in children with cystic fibrosis(CF)primarily presenting with pseudo-Bartter syndrome(CF-PBS),with the aim to enhance understanding of this disorder.Methods A retrospective analysis was performed on the clinical data of three children who were diagnosed with CF-PBS in Hunan Children's Hospital from January 2018 to August 2023,and a literature review was performed.Results All three children had the onset of the disease in infancy.Tests after admission showed hyponatremia,hypokalemia,hypochloremia,and metabolic alkalosis,and genetic testing showed the presence of compound heterozygous mutation in the CFTR gene.All three children were diagnosed with CF.Literature review obtained 33 Chinese children with CF-PBS,with an age of onset of 1-36 months and an age of diagnosis of 3-144 months.Among these children,there were 29 children with recurrent respiratory infection or persistent pneumonia(88％),26 with malnutrition(79％),23 with developmental retardation(70％),and 18 with pancreatitis or extrapancreatic insufficiency(55％).Genetic testing showed that c.2909G＞A was the most common mutation site of the CFTR gene,with a frequency of allelic variation of 23％(15/66).Conclusions CF may have no typical respiratory symptoms in the early stage.The possibility of CF-PBS should be considered for infants with recurrent hyponatremia,hypokalemia,hypochloremia,and metabolic alkalosis,especially those with malnutrition and developmental retardation.CFTR genetic testing should be performed as soon as possible to help with the diagnosis of CF.

Objective To investigate the early cognitive development characteristics of children with Williams syndrome(WS)at different age stages.Methods From September 2018 to June 2023,106 children diagnosed with WS at the Department of Pediatric Health Care,Children's Hospital,Zhejiang University School of Medicine,aged 1 to<5 years,were prospectively enrolled.All children underwent Gesell developmental diagnostic assessments to analyze the cognitive development characteristics of WS children across different age groups.Results The average age of the 106 WS children was(3.1±1.2)years;58 were male,and 48 were female.There were no significant differences in developmental levels between males and females in the five domains of gross motor skills,fine motor skills,language,personal-social skills,and adaptive behavior(P>0.05).The incidence rates of mild,moderate,severe,and profound developmental disabilities among children of different age groups showed no significant differences(P>0.05).Comparisons of developmental levels in gross motor skills,language,personal-social skills,and adaptive behavior among different age groups were also not statistically significant(P>0.05).With the increase of age,the developmental level of fine motor skills showed a decreasing trend(P<0.05).There were no significant differences in verbal IQ and non-verbal IQ within each age group of WS children(P>0.05).Conclusions The overall developmental level of WS children stabilizes with age,and their early language abilities do not significantly exceed their non-verbal abilities.

Objective To explore clinical effect of single small incision with honeycomb titanium plate in treating acute acromioclavicular dislocation.Methods The clinical data of 40 patients with acute acromioclavicular dislocation admitted from December 2019 to December 2021 were retrospectively analyzed and divided into two groups according to different surgical methods.Among them,20 patients were fixed with single small incision with honeycomb titanium plate(titanium plate group),including 11 males and 9 females,aged from 23 to 65 years old with an average of(47.40±12.58)years old;12 patients on the left side,8 patients on the right side;11 patients with type Ⅲ,3 patients with type Ⅳ,and 6 patients with type Ⅴ according to Rockwood classification.Twenty patients were fixed with clavicular hook plate(clavicular hook group),including 8 males and 12 females,aged from 24 to 65 years old with an average of(48.40±12.08)years old;12 patients on the left side,8 patients on the right side;10 patients with type Ⅲ,2 patients with type Ⅳ,and 8 patients with type V according to Rockwood classifica-tion.Operative time,incision length,intraoperative blood loss,hospital stay,visual analogue scale(VAS)and Constant-Murley score of shoulder joint function were compared between two groups.Anteroposterior radiographs of the affected shoulder joint were recorded before,immediately and 6 months after surgery,and the coracoclavicular distance was measured and compared.Results Both groups of patients were successfully completed operation without serious complications.All patients were fol-lowed up for 6 to 15 months with an average of(11.9±4.8)months.There were no incisional infection,internal plant fracture or failure,bone tunnel fracture and other complications occurred.The incision length of titanium plate group(35.90±3.14)mm was significantly shorter than that of clavicular hook group(49.30±3.79)mm(P＜0.05).There were no significant difference in operative time,intraoperative blood loss and hospital stay between two groups(P＞0.05).At 1 and 3 months after operation,VAS of titanium plate group was lower than that of clavicular hook group(P＜0.05).Connstant-Murley scores in titanium plate group at 1,3 and 6 months after operation were(86.80±1.36),(91.60±2.32)and(94.90±2.22),respectively;and in clavicular hook group were(78.45±5.47),(85.55±2.01)and(90.25±1.92),which were higher than that of clavicular hook group(P＜0.05).There was no significant difference in coracoclavicular distance between two groups immediately and 6 months after op-eration(P＞0.05).Conclusion For the treatment of acute acromioclavicular joint dislocation,single small incision combined with honeycomb titanium plate have advantages of shorter incision,fast recovery of shoulder joint function without the second operation,and has good satisfaction of patient.
