Objective To investigate the independent risk factors affecting the prognosis of chronic active antibody-mediated rejection (caAMR) after kidney transplantation. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on 61 patients who underwent renal biopsy and were diagnosed with caAMR. The patients were divided into caAMR group (n=41) and caAMR+TCMR group (n=20) based on the presence or absence of concurrent acute T cell-mediated rejection (TCMR). The patients were followed up for 3 years. The value of 24-hour urinary protein and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) at the time of biopsy in predicting graft loss was assessed using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves. The independent risk factors affecting caAMR prognosis were analyzed using the LASSO-Cox regression model. The correlation between grouping, outcomes, and Banff scores was compared using Spearman rank correlation matrix analysis. Kaplan-Meier analysis was used to evaluate the renal allograft survival rates of each subgroup. Results The 3-year renal allograft survival rates for the caAMR group and the caAMR+TCMR group were 83% and 79%, respectively. The area under the ROC curve (AUC) for predicting 3-year renal allograft loss was 0.83 ［95% confidence interval (CI) 0.70-0.97］ for eGFR and 0.78 (95% CI 0.61-0.96) for 24-hour urinary protein at the time of biopsy. LASSO-Cox regression analysis and Kaplan-Meier analysis showed that eGFR≤25.23 mL/(min·1.73 m²) and the presence of donor-specific antibody (DSA) against human leukocyte antigen (HLA) class I might be independent risk factors affecting renal allograft prognosis, with hazard ratios of 7.67 (95% CI 2.18-27.02) and 5.13 (95% CI 1.33-19.80), respectively. A strong correlation was found between the Banff chronic lesion indicators of renal interstitial fibrosis and tubular atrophy (P<0.05). Conclusions The presence of HLA class I DSA and eGFR≤25.23 mL/(min·1.73 m²) at the time of biopsy may be independent risk factors affecting the prognosis of caAMR.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the correlation between polymorphisms of MTHFR(1298A>C) and MTHFR (677C>T) and the blood concentration and adverse reactions of methotrexate(MTX). METHODS A total of 185 children with acutelymphoblastic leukemia(ALL) admitted to Shanghai Children′s Hospital from October 2014 to December 2021 were selected to collect laboratory test indicators such as MTHFR(1298A>C) and MTHFR(677C>T) genotype, adverse reactions, and blood concentration. RESULTS The overall incidence of adverse reactions after using MTX in 185 children was 95.1%. The incidence of adverse reactions between the two genotypes of MTHFR(A1298C) was not statistically significant, except for the difference in neutropenia(P=0.006); the incidence of adverse reactions in ALL children with three genotypes of MTHFR(C677T) was not statistically significant except for neutropenia(P=0.041/0.012), gastrointestinal reactions(P=0.037/0.011), and mucosal toxicity(P=0.039/0.016); there was a statistically significant difference in MTX plasma concentration among ALL patients with three genotypes of MTHFR(C677T) at 24 h(P=0.021); there was a statistically significant difference in the incidence of calcium folinate doubling rescue among ALL patients with three genotypes of MTHFR(677C>T)(P=0.007/0.002). CONCLUSION Polymorphisms in MTHFR(1298A>C) and MTHFR(677C>T) may not be good indicators for predicting MTX chemotherapy in children with ALL. The importance of doubling rescue is emphasized, as doubling rescue can significantly reduce the incidence of such adverse reactions in children with high incidence of mucosal toxicity and bone marrow toxicity.

Objective To analyze the correlation between internal iliac artery calcification and delayed graft function (DGF) and short-term prognosis of kidney transplant recipients. Methods Clinical data of 222 kidney transplant recipients were retrospectively analyzed. According to the recovery of renal function, all recipients were divided into the DGF group (n=50) and immediate graft function (IGF) group (n=172). According to whether the recipients were complicated with severe internal iliac artery calcification, DGF and IGF groups were further divided into the high-risk DGF (n=22), low-risk DGF (n=28), high-risk IGF (n=41) and low-risk IGF(n=131) subgroups, respectively. Clinical data of donors and recipients were statistically compared between two groups. The incidences of postoperative DGF and internal iliac artery calcification were recorded. The risk factors of DGF after kidney transplantation, and the correlation between internal iliac artery calcification and clinical parameters were analyzed. Short-term prognosis of recipients with DGF complicated with severe internal iliac artery calcification was evaluated. Results The incidence of DGF was 22.5% (50/222). Among all recipients, 28.4% (63/222) were complicated with severe internal iliac artery calcification. In the DGF group, 44% (22/50) of the recipients were complicated with severe internal iliac artery calcification, higher than 23.8% (41/172) in the IGF group (P < 0.05). Univariate analysis showed that high serum creatinine (Scr) level of donors, male donor, high triglyceride level and severe internal iliac artery calcification of recipients were the risk factors for DGF after kidney transplantation (all P < 0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that Scr≥143 μmol/L of donors and severe internal iliac artery calcification of recipients were the independent risk factors for DGF after kidney transplantation (both P < 0.05). Correlation analysis indicated that internal iliac artery calcification was weakly correlated with the age of recipients and renal artery anastomosis (both P < 0.05). In the DGF group, the Scr level at postoperative 1 month was significantly higher, whereas the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was significantly lower than those in the IGF group (both P < 0.05). The eGFR at postoperative 12 months in the high-risk DGF subgroup was significantly lower than those in the low-risk DGF, high-risk IGF and low-risk IGF subgroups (all P < 0.05). Conclusions Internal iliac artery calcification is not only a risk factor for recovery of renal allograft function, but also negatively affects short-term prognosis of renal allograft function.

Human Organ Procurement Organization (OPO) is an indispensable part of organ donation. In recent years, with rapid development of organ donation in China, united OPO has been established based on China's national conditions and establishment of global OPO. This innovative model serves as favorable supplement and exploration for the development of OPO, promoting the development of organ donation to enter a new stage. However, there are still some shortcomings during the process of development. Efforts should be made to catch up with the development of organ donation, aim at long-term goals, and promote development in a targeted manner. In this article, by analyzing the advantages and disadvantages of united OPO in the development of organ donation, the establishment of a long-term operation mechanism of united OPO was analyzed from policy support, talent training, technology upgrading, quality control, ethical review, financial management and full-course supervision, aiming to provide reference for further development of united OPO in China.

【Objective】 To explore the effects of early application of erythropoietin (EPO) in patients with anemia after renal transplantation. 【Methods】 Patients who underwent renal transplantation in the First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University were retrospectively analyzed. According to whether EPO was applied after operation, the patients were divided into EPO group and routine group. Patients with delayed renal function recovery were excluded, and the remaining patients were further analyzed. The general, laboratory and follow-up data of the two groups were compared, and adverse drug reactions were observed. 【Results】 The hemoglobin (P=0.026), red blood cell count (P=0.038) and hematocrit (P=0.011) in EPO group were higher than those in the routine group 2 weeks after operation, while the postoperative serum creatinine level was lower (P=0.001). Since the first week after operation, the reticulocyte count in EPO group was significantly higher than that in routine group (P<0.01). There was a negative correlation between hemoglobin and serum creatinine in EPO group at week 1 (r=-0.375, P=0.010) and week 2 (r=-0.386, P=0.008). During the treatment, 6 patients showed transient elevation of serum potassium, which returned to normal after symptomatic treatment, and no obvious adverse drug reactions were observed. 【Conclusion】 Continuous application of erythropoietin in the early stage after renal transplantation can significantly improve anemia in renal transplant patients and promote the recovery of renal function.

Hip surgery has been a slow-growing specialty in orthopedics and sports medicine. The development of imaging and minimally invasive arthroscopic surgery techniques has brought opportunities for this branch. Compared with other minimally invasive joint techniques, hip arthroscopy develops more slowly due to high equipment requirements, difficult operation and long learning curve. However, with continuous breakthroughs in disease diagnosis and surgical techniques, hip arthroscopy technology has stayed in a fast track for the past 20 years, and has become the most rapidly developed field in sports medicine. Especially in the past decade, China's hip arthroscopy society has developed rapidly in both surgery volumes and types. With an increasing population of hip doctors, the technical level and related research gap between China and the outside world narrowed. In some research fields, China even surpassed them. In general, both domestic and overseas studies show that the effect of hip arthroscopy is positive with significant improvement of symptoms in most patients. However, some patients complained poor recovery and residual hip pain, which indicates that hip diseases are still not totally understood, and the development of hip arthroscopy technology is still in an early stage. Therefore, accurate diagnosis and indication selection, detailed assessment of patients' exercise needs and psychological status, perfect preoperative planning, skilled surgical operation, and strict functional rehabilitation are the keys to success, which should be kept in mind by every hip arthroscopy doctor. They are also the main research direction for hip arthroscopy doctors. Continuous efforts on clinical and basic research should be made for the development of hip arthroscopy to establish a more optimized and comprehensive diagnosis and treatment system.

Femoral acetabular impingement (FAI) is a condition characterized by abnormal anatomical structures of the femoral head and/or acetabulum, leading to impingement between the proximal femur and the rim of the acetabulum during hip movement. This impingement causes damage to the acetabular cartilage, labrum, chronic hip pain, and limited range of motion. The diagnosis of this condition requires evaluation based on symptoms, physical signs, and imaging examinations. Among these, imaging plays a crucial role in assessing the pathology of FAI. In recent years, imaging techniques have contributed to a deeper understanding of the mechanisms underlying FAI and the development of hip-preserving surgeries. The purpose of this paper is to provide a reference for the imaging-related diagnosis and measurement of FAI. X-ray films include pelvic anteroposterior view, false-profile view and 45°Dunn view. Doctors can understand the anatomical morphology of the femur and acetabulum by measuring relevant indicators in the X-ray films. For example, the α Angle of the femur >50°-60 ° in the pelvic anteroposterior view can indicate CAM-type FAI. However, the crisscross sign, posterior wall sign and LCE Angle >40° suggest Pincer type FAI. The ACE Angle, which reflects the anterior coverage of the acetabulum, was mainly measured on the false-profile view. The ACE Angle <20° is considered as insufficient anterior acetabular coverage, and acetabular dysplasia may be present.If it >40° is the anterior acetabular overcoverage, suggesting pincer-type FAI. The 45°Dunn view is mainly used to show the femoral head and neck deformity at 3 o'clock, where the femoroacetabular impingement is obvious. This position has a good indication effect for CAM-type FAI. CT can show the shape of the hip joint more intuitively by three-dimensional reconstruction of the patient's hip joint, which is convenient for surgical planning and postoperative evaluation. In addition, CT can also be used for the differential diagnosis of external hip impingement, such as ischiofemoral impingement, anterior inferior iliac spine impingement and greatertrochanteric impingement. MR Has excellent soft tissue imaging ability and can show other lesions that are difficult to be found by X-ray and CT, such as acetabular labrum and cartilage injury. It is essential for preoperative evaluation. Appropriate imaging examination plays a key role in the diagnosis and treatment of FAI.

Objective:To study the genetic profile of neonatal hyperbilirubinemia with unknown etiology in Guangdong Province and the clinical significance of jaundice-related genetic screening.Methods:From July to September, 2021, neonates with hyperbilirubinemia of unknown etiology born in different hospitals in Guangdong Province were studied. 24 neonatal jaundice-related exons were sequenced using targeted capture and high-throughput sequencing technology. The pathogenic variants were analyzed.Results:A total of 331 cases, 139 (42.0%) cases showed positive screening results with five diseases, including 65 (19.6%) cases of Gilbert syndrome, 48 (14.5%) cases of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency,18 (5.4%) cases of sodium taurocholate cotransporting polypeptide deficiency, 4 (1.2%) cases of Citrin deficiency and 4 (1.2%) cases of Dubin-Johnson syndrome. 149 (45.0%) cases carried one or more genetic variants and 43 (13.0%) cases showed no clinically significant variants. The 8 high-frequency mutation loci (carrier rate >1%) are UGT1A1 gene c.211G>A and c.1091C>T, G6PD gene c.1466G>T and c.1478G>A, SLC10A1 gene c.800C>T, SLC25A13 gene c.852_855del TATG, HBB gene c.126_129delCTTT and c.316-197C>T.Conclusions:Genetic factors are important for neonatal hyperbilirubinemia with unknown etiology in Guangdong. The common pathogenic genes are UGT1A1, G6PD, SLC10A1, and SLC25A13 and the population carries high-frequency mutation loci. Therefore, genetic screening in neonates with hyperbilirubinemia of unknown etiology has important clinical significance.

Objective:To explore independent risk factors and risk stratification for diagnosis of clinically significant prostate cancer (CsPCa) in biopsy-naive patients with nonsuspicious multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI).Methods:The data of 549 patients who underwent initial systematic biopsy (SB) in the First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University, the Second Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University and Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital of Kunshan between October 2015 and January 2021 were retrospectively reviewed. Nonsuspicious mpMRI was defined as Prostate Imaging-Reporting and Data System (PI-RADS)≤2. All patients received systematic 12 core prostate biopsy, 278 of them by transperineal and 271 by transrectal biopsies. The median age of the patients was 67 (62, 73) years, the median prostate specific antigen (PSA) was 9.01 (6.15, 13.64) ng/ml, the median prostate volume was 48.41 (35.85, 64.28) ml, and 54 patients were positive in digital rectal examination (DRE). Taking CsPCa as the outcome index, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis was performed on age, tPSA, f/tPSA and PSA density (PSAD) to obtain the optimal cut-off value, and logistics regression was used to explore the independent risk factor of CsPCa in mpMRI negative patients. The optimal cut-off value when the negative predictive value (NPV) of mpMRI diagnosis of CsPCa was 100%, was taken as the protective factor, and the risk stratification model was finally proposed.Results:Of all 549 cases, 44 were CsPCa, 35 were clinically insignificant prostate cancer and 470 were non-prostate cancer. There were significant differences in age (71 vs. 67 years old), tPSA (11.95 vs. 8.75 ng/ml), PSAD [0.31 vs. 0.18 ng/(ml·cm 3)], f/tPSA (0.12 vs. 0.16) and DRE positive rate (38.6% vs. 7.3%) between CsPCa group and non-CsPCa group ( P<0.01). Cut-off values were taken in ROC analysis when the Youden index was at its maximum. The optimal cut-off values of each continuous variable were: age=65 years, tPSA=10ng/ml, f/tPSA=0.2 and PSAD=0.15 ng/(ml·cm 3). Multivariate analysis showed that ages over 65 years ( OR=3.43, 95% CI 1.55-7.58, P=0.002), f/t PSA ratio<0.2 ( OR=3.84, 95% CI 1.28-11.56, P=0.016), PSAD>0.15 ng/(ml·cm 3) ( OR=3.60, 95% CI 1.13-11.51, P=0.03) and positive DRE ( OR=5.20, 95% CI 2.39-11.32, P<0.001) were independent risk factors of CsPCa. When NPV was 100%, the cut-off values were taken as the protective factors: age≤55 years, f/tPSA≥0.3, PSAD≤0.1 ng/(ml·cm 3). Combined with independent risk factors, preliminary risk stratification was conducted: those with ≥2 high risk factors were considered as high risk group, those with ≥2 protective factors were considered as low risk group, and the middle region was considered as medium risk group. Conclusions:Patients with age>65 years, f/tPSA<0.2, PSAD > 0.15 ng/(ml·cm 3) and DRE positive are independent risk factors of CsPCa in mpMRI negative patients. Patients in the high-risk group were recommended to undergo prostate biopsy, while patients in the low-risk group could be considered to avoid biopsy.
