In infants with severe bronchopulmonary dysplasia(sBPD),severe pulmonary lobar emphysema may occur as a complication,contributing to significant impairment in ventilation.Clinical management of these infants is extremely challenging and some may require lobectomy to improve ventilation.However,prior to the lobectomy,it is very difficult to assess whether the remaining lung parenchyma would be able to sustain adequate ventilation postoperatively.In addition,preoperative planning and perioperative management are also quite challenging in these patients.This paper reports the utility of selective bronchial occlusion in assessing the safety and efficacy of lobectomy in a case of sBPD complicated by severe right upper lobar emphysema.Since infants with sBPD already have poor lung development and significant lung injury,lobectomy should be viewed as a non-traditional therapy and be carried out with extreme caution.Selective bronchial occlusion test can be an effective tool in assessing the risks and benefits of lobectomy in cases with sBPD and lobar emphysema.However,given the technical difficulty,successful application of this technique requires close collaboration of an experienced interdisciplinary team.

The chemical constituents of Chuanzhi Tongluo Capsules were analyzed and identified using ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole/electrostatic field orbitrap high-resolution mass spectrometry(UPLC-Q-Exactive Orbitrap-MS) to clarify the pharmacological substance basis. In addition, network pharmacology was employed to explore the mechanism of Chuanzhi Tongluo Capsules in the treatment of cerebral infarction. Gradient elution was performed using acetonitrile and 1% acetic acid in water as the mobile phase. Mass spectrometry was performed in positive and negative ion modes. Xcalibur 4.2 software was used for compound analysis, including accurate mass-to-charge ratio and MS/MS fragment information, combined with the comparison of reference standards and literature data. A total of 152 compounds were identified, including 32 organic acids, 35 flavonoids and their glycosides, 33 diterpenes, 13 phthalides, 12 triterpenes and triterpene saponins, 23 nitrogen-containing compounds, and 4 other compounds, and their fragmentation patterns were analyzed. SwissTargetPrediction, GeneCards, DAVID, and other databases were used to predict and analyze the core targets and mechanism of Chuanzhi Tongluo Capsules. Protein-protein interaction(PPI) network topology analysis identified 10 core targets, including TNF, VEGFA, EGFR, IL1B, and CTNNB1. KEGG enrichment analysis showed that Chuanzhi Tongluo Capsules mainly exerted their effects through the regulation of lipid and atherosclerosis, glycoproteins in cancer, MicroRNAs in cancer, fluid shear stress, and atherosclerosis-related pathways. Molecular docking was performed between the key constituents and core targets, and the results demonstrated a strong binding affinity between the key constituents of Chuanzhi Tongluo Capsules and the core targets. This study comprehensively elucidated the chemical constituents of Chuanzhi Tongluo Capsules and explored the core targets and mechanism in the treatment of cerebral infarction based on network pharmacology, providing a scientific reference for the study of the pharmacological substance basis and formulation quality standards of Chuanzhi Tongluo Capsules.

Objective: To analyze the clinical characteristics of children with Burkitt lymphoma (BL) and to summarize the mid-term efficacy of China Net Childhood Lymphoma-mature B-cell lymphoma 2017 (CNCL-B-NHL-2017) regimen. Methods: Clinical features of 436 BL patients who were ≤18 years old and treated with the CNCL-B-NHL-2017 regimen from May 2017 to April 2021 were analyzed retrospectively. Clinical characteristics of patients at disease onset were analyzed and the therapeutic effects of patients with different clinical stages and risk groups were compared. Survival analysis was performed by Kaplan-Meier method, and Cox regression was used to identify the prognostic factors. Results: Among 436 patients, there were 368 (84.4%) males and 68 (15.6%) females, the age of disease onset was 6.0 (4.0, 9.0) years old. According to the St. Jude staging system, there were 4 patients (0.9%) with stage Ⅰ, 30 patients (6.9%) with stage Ⅱ, 217 patients (49.8%) with stage Ⅲ, and 185 patients (42.4%) with stage Ⅳ. All patients were stratified into following risk groups: group A (n=1, 0.2%), group B1 (n=46, 10.6%), group B2 (n=19, 4.4%), group C1 (n=285, 65.4%), group C2 (n=85, 19.5%). Sixty-three patients (14.4%) were treated with chemotherapy only and 373 patients (85.6%) were treated with chemotherapy combined with rituximab. Twenty-one patients (4.8%) suffered from progressive disease, 3 patients (0.7%) relapsed, and 13 patients (3.0%) died of treatment-related complications. The follow-up time of all patients was 24.0 (13.0, 35.0) months, the 2-year event free survival (EFS) rate of all patients was (90.9±1.4) %. The 2-year EFS rates of group A, B1, B2, C1 and C2 were 100.0%, 100.0%, (94.7±5.1) %, (90.7±1.7) % and (85.9±4.0) %, respectively. The 2-year EFS rates was higher in group A, B1, and B2 than those in group C1 (χ2=4.16, P=0.041) and group C2 (χ2=7.21, P=0.007). The 2-year EFS rates of the patients treated with chemotherapy alone and those treated with chemotherapy combined with rituximab were (79.3±5.1)% and (92.9±1.4)% (χ2=14.23, P<0.001) respectively. Multivariate analysis showed that stage Ⅳ (including leukemia stage), serum lactate dehydrogenase (LDH)>4-fold normal value, and with residual tumor in the mid-term evaluation were risk factors for poor prognosis (HR=1.38,1.23,8.52,95%CI 1.05-1.82,1.05-1.43,3.96-18.30). Conclusions: The CNCL-B-NHL-2017 regimen show significant effect in the treatment of pediatric BL. The combination of rituximab improve the efficacy further.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and side effects of PD-1 monoclonal antibody in the treatment of advanced metastatic renal cell carcinoma in China.Methods:The clinical data of 117 patients with advanced metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC) treated with PD-1 monoclonal antibody from October 2016 to February 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. There were 87 males (74.4%) and 30 females (25.6%), with an average age of (57.9±10.9) years old, BMI of (23.6±3.4) kg/m 2and smoking history of 79 (67.5%). There were 44 cases (37.6%) with hypertension, 19 (16.2%) cases of diabetes. The ECOG score of 59.8% (70/117) patients was 0, 33.3% (39/117) was 1, 4.3% (5/117) was 2, and 2.5% (3/117) was 3. The pathological type of 104 cases were renal clear cell carcinoma (ccRCC), 8 cases of papillary renal cell carcinoma, 2 cases of chromophobe cell carcinoma, 2 cases of collecting duct carcinoma and 1 case of eosinophilic cell carcinoma. The general condition of the overall population and the overall survival (OS) of relevant subgroups were analyzed. Secondary goals included progression free survival (PFS), objective response rate (ORR), adverse reactions, overall survival (OS), and progression free survival (PFS). Results:65.8% (77 / 117) of the patients chose targeted combined with PD-1 monoclonal antibody in the first-line treatment. The main targeted drugs were acitinib (81.8%, 63 / 77), tirelizumab (37.6%, 29 / 77) and cindilimab (25.9%, 20 / 77). After first-line treatment, 19.6.1% (23 / 117) patients needed to be converted to second-line treatment, and 15 patients changed the type of PD-1 antibody during treatment. In addition, the targeted drug of combined therapy was replaced by acitinib in 8 patients. The main causes of drug withdrawal were disease progression (70.7%, 29 / 41) and death (29.2%, 12 / 41). The median OS of the overall population was 35.6 (19-60) months and PFS was 12.1 (1-60) months. The ORR of the overall population was 47.8% (56 / 117). 4.2% (5/117) patients had complete remission, another 17.0% (20/117) patients were in stable condition, and 43.5% (51 / 117) patients were in partial remission. In the first-line treatment, the median PFS time of targeted combined with PD-1 monoclonal antibody was 12.6 (1-30) months, the median PFS time of PD-1 single drug immunotherapy was 10.5 (1-60) months. In the second-line treatment, the PFS of patients treated with PD-1 monoclonal antibody was 10.1 (4-19) months, and that of patients treated with PD-1 monoclonal antibody combined with targeted therapy was 11.7 (1-25) months. The most common adverse reactions were elevated blood pressure (18.5%, 23 / 124), followed by hypothyroidism (15.3%%, 19/124), rash (14.5%, 18 / 124), elevated transaminase (10.5%, 13 / 124) and bone marrow suppression (9.7%, 12/124). 9.4% (11 / 117) patients needed to reduce the related adverse reactions by interrupting the treatment control of PD-1 monoclonal antibody.Conclusions:The safety and efficacy of PD-1 monoclonal antibody in domestic patients are better, and the side effects are less. The efficacy and safety of PD-1 monoclonal antibody combined with targeted therapy in the real world population are consistent with many key clinical trials abroad. PD-1 monoclonal antibody combined with targeted drugs can be popularized in the domestic MRCC population.

The clinical symptoms and signs of methamphetamine-associated psychosis (MAP) and schizophrenia are highly similar, but the situation is completely different when MAP and schizophrenia patients need to be assessed for criminal responsibility after they comitted a harmful behavior. Therefore, the distinction between the two psychoses is very important in forensic psychiatry. At present, the identification of these two psychoses is mainly dependent on the corresponding criteria such as the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition (DSM-5) and the Chinese Classification of Mental Disorders Version 3 (CCMD-3). It's challenging to diagnose and distinguish between the two in practical cases due to their similar clinical symptoms and the lack of effective objective indexes. Different from the limitations of single omics, integrative omics intergrates data from multiple dimensions and has been extensively studied in the field of schizophrenia and has achieved some preliminary results. In view of the correlation between MAP and schizophrenia and the potential application value of integrative omics, this paper proposes an integrative omics strategy for MAP pathogenesis and forensic identification, aiming to improve the further understanding of the relationship between the two psychoses and the corresponding pathogenesis. It also provides references for the future exploration of integrative omics in forensic precise identification and effective monitoring and early warning methods.
