Mushroom poisoning is the most important cause of death in food-borne poisoning in China, mainly caused by amanitin, which is caused by rapid progression, complex mechanism and latency. Early identification, diagnosis and treatment are important to improve the prognosis of fatal mushroom poisoning. This article analyzes the clinical characteristics, identification process and treatment of 14 patients with amanitin-containing Galerina sulciceps mushroom poisoning in a family, so as to improve the identification ability of the first physician in recognizing and managing early-stage mushroom poisoning, and to increase the cure rate through early bundle therapy of mushroom poisoning.

Objective To establish a noninvasive diagnostic model for liver fibrosis in chronic hepatitis B(CHB)patients with normal alanine aminotransferase(ALT)and an age of≤30 years by selecting specific indicators from the commonly used noninvasive indicators such as clinical,biochemical,and imaging indicators,to avoid invasive liver biopsy in such patients to some extent,and to guide the timing of antiviral therapy.Methods A total of 251 CHB patients with normal ALT and an age of≤30 years who underwent liver biopsy in Shenzhen Third People's Hospital and The First Hospital of Changsha from January 2019 to January 2022 were enrolled,with 175 patients in the model group and 76 patients in the validation group,and commonly used clinical indicators were obtained based on clinical experience and related articles.The two-independent-samples t test or the two-independent-samples Mann-Whitney U rank sum test was used for comparison of continuous data between groups,and the chi-square test was used for comparison of categorical data between groups.A Spearman rank correlation analysis was used to investigate the correlation between each indicator and liver fibrosis and identify the indicators with correlation(P<0.01,r>0.200);a Logistic regression analysis was used to establish a noninvasive diagnostic model,and the receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was used to evaluate its performance and perform validation of the model;this model was then compared with the widely used models of aspartate aminotransferase-to-platelet ratio index(APRI)and fibrosis-4(FIB-4).The Kappa consistency test was used to investigate the consistency of pathological results.Results A total of 17 commonly used clinical indicators were obtained,among which 9 indicators(ALT,aspartate aminotransferase[AST],gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase[GGT],ferritin[FERR],platelet count[PLT],procollagen type Ⅲ amino-terminal peptide[PⅢP],collagen Ⅳ[CⅣ],HBV DNA,and spleen thickness)were correlated with liver fibrosis(P<0.01,r>0.232).Based on the above indicators,the predictive model was established as P=1/(1+e-γ),γ=-1.902+0.106×AST-0.011×PLT-0.265×HBV DNA+0.059×PⅢP,in which P was the probability for predicting≥S2 liver fibrosis and γ was the predictive index.The comparison between each indicator and the model showed that the model had the largest area under the ROC curve of 0.852,with a sensitivity of 92.7%and a specificity of 76.9%.The model was validated in 76 patients and showed an accuracy of 77.600%.The model was compared with APRI and FIB-4,and the results showed that the model has good accuracy.Conclusion Compared with the models of APRI and FIB-4 commonly used in the world,this model can more accurately judge the degree of liver fibrosis in such patients,thereby replacing liver biopsy to some extent and guiding the timing of antiviral therapy.

Objective:To explore whether antioxidant coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) is involved in the regulation of renal injury induced by diquat poisoning (DQ) in rats through anti-oxidative stress and inhibition of interleukin (IL)-17 and nuclear factor kappa-B (NF-κB) signaling pathway, and whether this mechanism is related to alleviating mitochondrial dysfunction.Methods:The expressions of NF-κB inhibitory protein α (IKB-α), phosphorylated nuclear factor κB (P-NF-κB), JNK-related leucine zipper protein (JLP) and neuroprotective protein PTEN-induced putative kinase 1(PINK1) pathway proteins were detected in vivo and in vitro. Biochemical detection of renal injury markers and inflammatory cytokines: serum urea nitrogen (BUN), serum creatinine (Cr), Cystatin C (CysC), renal injury molecule 1, Malondialdehyde, Supemxidedismutase (SOD), neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL), etc. Renal pathology HE staining was used to observe the degree of renal injury and pathological score under light microscope. The expression of reactive oxygen species (ROS) was detected by immunofluorescence. CCK-8 experiment was used to observe the level of cell proliferation after administration.Results:In vivo experiment, the indexes of renal function injury (Cr, BUN, CysC, NAGL, KIM-1) in plasma and kidney samples were significantly increased after 72 h of exposure in DQ group, and there were significant histopathological changes and pathological scores increased. In vitro experiment HK-2 cells were exposed to DQ for 48 h, and the cell viability decreased by half. After exposure to DQ, serum SOD decreased, MDA increased, and the immunofluorescence value of ROS in renal tissue increased. Intervention with CoQ10 can alleviate the pathological damage induced by DQ in rats, enhance the vitality of HK-2 cells, alleviate renal injury and reduce the level of oxidative stress. In addition, the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-6, TNF-α and IL-17) increased in DQ group in vivo, the expression of P-NF-κBp65 protein in DQ group in vivo and HK-2 cell DQ group in vitro increased significantly, the expression of mitochondrial dysfunction index PINK1 protein increased significantly, and the expression of JLP protein and IκB-α protein decreased significantly. After intervention with CoQ10, the expression of P-NF-κBp65 protein and PINK1 can be decreased, while the expression of IκB-α protein can be increased and the degradation of JLP could be alleviated, and CoQ10 could improve the mitochondrial dysfunction after DQ poisoning.Conclusions:CoQ10 can alleviate the kidney injury induced by DQ poisoning in rats, and its mechanism may be related to the fact that CoQ10 regulates the expression of IL-17 and NF-κB signaling pathway through anti-oxidative stress, and further improves mitochondrial dysfunction.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.

OX40 is a costimulatory receptor that is expressed primarily on activated CD4⁺, CD8⁺, and regulatory T cells. The ligation of OX40 to its sole ligand OX40L potentiates T cell expansion, differentiation, and activation and also promotes dendritic cells to mature to enhance their cytokine production. Therefore, the use of agonistic anti-OX40 antibodies for cancer immunotherapy has gained great interest. However, most of the agonistic anti-OX40 antibodies in the clinic are OX40L-competitive and show limited efficacy. Here, we discovered that BGB-A445, a non-ligand-competitive agonistic anti-OX40 antibody currently under clinical investigation, induced optimal T cell activation without impairing dendritic cell function. In addition, BGB-A445 dose-dependently and significantly depleted regulatory T cells in vitro and in vivo via antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity. In the MC38 syngeneic model established in humanized OX40 knock-in mice, BGB-A445 demonstrated robust and dose-dependent antitumor efficacy, whereas the ligand-competitive anti-OX40 antibody showed antitumor efficacy characterized by a hook effect. Furthermore, BGB-A445 demonstrated a strong combination antitumor effect with an anti-PD-1 antibody. Taken together, our findings show that BGB-A445, which does not block OX40-OX40L interaction in contrast to clinical-stage anti-OX40 antibodies, shows superior immune-stimulating effects and antitumor efficacy and thus warrants further clinical investigation.

Objective: To describe gastric cancer incidence in Suzhou cohort, explore the environmental risk factors of gastric cancer in Suzhou, and provide appropriate suggestions for gastric cancer prevention and control. Methods: The participants were from the Suzhou cohort of China Kadoorie Biobank. Baseline survey was conducted from 2004 to 2008, followed by long-term follow-up until December 31, 2013. After the exclusion of those who had been previously diagnosed with peptic ulcer and malignant tumor reported at baseline survey and gastric cancer within six months after enrollment, a total of 50,136 participants were included. Cox proportional risk models were used to identify risk factors of gastric cancer and their hazard ratios in Suzhou. The effect modifications of gender on the association between risk factors and gastric cancer were analyzed. Results: In the follow-up of 7.19 years (median), 374 gastric cancers cases occurred. The standardized incidence was 94.57 per 100 000 person-years. Multivariate Cox proportional risk model analysis found that age (10 years old as a age group, HR=2.20, 95%CI: 1.92-2.53, P<0.001), current smoking (HR=1.84, 95%CI: 1.10-3.07 P=0.020), consumption of preserved vegetables weekly (HR=2.28, 95%CI: 1.28-4.07, P=0.005) and daily (HR=2.05, 95%CI: 1.16-3.61, P=0.013) were risk factors for gastric cancer. Female (HR=0.44, 95%CI: 0.25-0.76, P=0.003) and refrigerator use (10 years as a limit, HR=0.85, 95%CI: 0.74-0.97, P=0.016) were protective factors for gastric cancer. Further analysis showed that there was heterogeneity between males and females in the association between refrigerator use years and the incidence of gastric cancer (P=0.009), and there was an interaction effect between gender and refrigerator use on the incidence of gastric cancer (P=0.010). Conclusions: The incidence of gastric cancer in Suzhou cohort was high. The risk factors of gastric cancer varied. There was a synergistic interaction effect between gender and refrigerator use years on the incidence of gastric cancer.

AIM:To observe the clinical effect of ranibizumab combined with 577nm micropulse laser in the treatment of severe diabetic macular edema(DME). METHODS:There were 52 eyes of 52 patients diagnosed with severe DME who admitted to the People's Hospital of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region from June 2016 to September 2019. The patients were randomly divided into the observation group(26 patients with 26 eyes, treated with ranibizumab combined with 577nm micropulse laser)and the control group(26 patients with 26 eyes, treated with ranibizumab alone). Patients in both groups received intravitreal injection of ranibizumab with “3+PRN” regimen. Followed up at 9mo after treatment to observe the central macular thickness(CMT), the best corrected visual acuity(BCVA)and the times of intravitreal injection of ranibizumab in the two groups.RESULTS:Compared with before treatment, the CMT and BCVA of the two groups were significantly improved at each time point after treatment(all P<0.001), but there was no difference between the two groups(P>0.05). During the follow-up period, the times of vitreous injection of ranibizumabin the observation group was significantly less than that in the control group(5.88±1.24 times vs 7.12±1.24 times, P=0.001). CONCLUSION:Both ranibizumab combined with 577nm micropulse laser and ranibizumab alone are effective in reducing edema and improving vision in patients with severe DME, but the combination therapy reduces the times of injection.
