ObjectiveTo explore the listed varieties and prescription characteristics of Chinese patent medicines for stroke in China， explore the medication rules of Chinese medicine for stroke， and provide guidance for further clinical research and development of Chinese patent medicines. MethodsExcel 2021 and the Ancient and Modern Medical Record Cloud Platform （V2.3.5） were used to systematically mine and analyze the varieties and prescriptions of Chinese patent medicines for stroke in China. ResultsA total of 244 Chinese patent medicines （two for different dosage forms of the same prescription）， 1 736 approval documents for Chinese patent medicines， 792 manufacturers， and 83 varieties of protected Chinese patent medicines were finally included in the database. The top three dosage forms were capsules （75）， pills （53）， and tablets （42）. There were 28 Chinese patent medicines for stroke in the National Essential Drug Catalogue （2018）， 129 in the National Essential Medical Insurance， Industrial Injury Insurance and Maternity Insurance Drug Catalogue （2023）， and 4 in the National Non-prescription Drug Catalogue. Among the 138 prescriptions screened out， Chinese patent medicines mainly treated stroke patients with the syndrome of Qi deficiency and blood stasis. The top three most frequent medicinal herbs were Chuanxiong Rhizoma （63）， Pheretima （47）， and Salviae Miltiorrhizae Radix et Rhizoma （47）. The medicinal herbs used were mainly warm， pungent， with the meridian tropism to the liver meridian. The correlation analysis showed that the herb pair with the highest support was Astragali Radix-Chuanxiong Rhizoma， and that with the highest confidence was Carthami Flos-Chuanxiong Rhizoma. Five herb combinations were identified based on the cluster analysis. ConclusionThe Chinese patent medicines for stroke mainly treat patients with the syndrome of Qi deficiency and blood stasis. The medicinal herbs used in the prescriptions mainly have the functions of activating blood and resolving stasis， extinguishing wind and stopping convulsions. Drug compatibility usually focuses on activating blood and resolving stasis， as well as expelling phlegm and opening orifices. This review of the varieties and prescription characteristics of Chinese patent medicines for stroke helps optimize clinical decision-making， guide drug research and development， promote medical research and scientific progress， and provide more effective support and guarantee for the treatment of stroke patients.

Objective To observe the effect of esketamine on postoperative recovery in children after endoscopic adenoidectomy.Methods Sixty pediatric patients who underwent adenoidectomy with endoscope from Jan 2022 to Jan 2023 in Eye&ENT Hospital,Fudan University were enrolled.The pediatric patients were randomly divided into hydro-morphine group(n=30)and esketamine group(n=30).Anesthesia induction:lidocaine 1.5 mg/kg,propofol 2.5 mg/kg and remifentanil 4 μg/kg were injected intravenously,and then the endotracheal tube was used for airway management.Anesthesia maintenance:remifentanil infusion was at 0.2-0.5 μg·kg-1·min-1 and the end tidal concentration of sevoflurane was at 0.7-1.0 minimum alveolar concentration(MAC).At the end of surgery,either hydromorphone 0.01 mg/kg or esketamine 0.5 mg/kg were administered for postoperative pain control.Time to resume spontaneous breathing was recorded.Other parameters included respiratory rate per minute,duration of stay in the post-anesthesia care unit,hemodynamic profiles.The adverse events including agitation and desaturation were also of note.Results Children in esketamine group resumed spontaneous breathing faster(P=0.048),had faster respiratory rate when recovery of spontaneous breathing(P=0.001)and lower concentration of end tidal CO2(P=0.005).The findings suggested that esketamine did not impair respiratory function.Compared to hydro-morphine group,children in esketamine group had shorter stay in the post-anesthesia care unit with statistical difference(P=0.020).Esketamine had no effect on heart rate and blood pressure,so there were less adverse events.Conclusion Compared with 0.01 mg/kg hydro-morphine,0.5 mg/kg esketamine does not impair respiratory function and it facilitate fast recovery in children undergoing endoscopic adenoidectomy after general anesthesia.

Objective To explore characteristics of clinical parameters and cytokines in patients with drug-induced liver injury(DILI)caused by different drugs and their correlation with clinical indicators. Method The study was conducted on patients who were up to Review of Uncertainties in Confidence Assessment for Medical Tests(RUCAM)scoring criteria and clinically diagnosed with DILI.Based on Chinese herbal medicine,cardiovascular drugs,non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs(NSAIDs),anti-infective drugs,and other drugs,patients were divided into five groups.Cytokines were measured by Luminex technology.Baseline characteristics of clinical biochemical indicators and cytokines in DILI patients and their correlation were analyzed. Results 73 patients were enrolled.Age among five groups was statistically different(P=0.032).Alanine aminotransferase(ALT)(P=0.033)and aspartate aminotransferase(AST)(P=0.007)in NSAIDs group were higher than those in chinese herbal medicine group.Interleukin-6(IL-6)and tumor necrosis factor alpha(TNF-α)in patients with Chinese herbal medicine(IL-6:P<0.001;TNF-α:P<0.001)and cardiovascular medicine(IL-6:P=0.020;TNF-α:P=0.001)were lower than those in NSAIDs group.There was a positive correlation between ALT(r=0.697,P=0.025),AST(r=0.721,P=0.019),and IL-6 in NSAIDs group. Conclusion Older age may be more prone to DILI.Patients with NSAIDs have more severe liver damage in early stages of DILI,TNF-α and IL-6 may partake the inflammatory process of DILI.

Objective To investigate the MRI manifestations of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome complicated with subtentorial progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy(PML).Methods Sixteen patients with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome complicated with subtentorial PML confirmed by surgery,pathology,or clinical diagnosis were selected.The MRI features of plain scan and enhanced scan were analyzed and summarized,retrospectively.Results Among the 16 acquired immunodeficiency syndrome patients complicated with subtentorial PML,in terms of lesion distribution,the left cerebellar hemisphere was involved in 10 cases(62.5％),and the right cerebellar hemisphere was involved in 10 cases(62.5％).The left pontine arm was involved in 11 cases(68.8％),the right pontine arm was involved in 10 cases(62.5％),the medulla oblongata was involved in 6 cases(37.5％),the pontine region was involved in 11 cases(68.8％),the midbrain was involved in 7 cases(43.8％),and the supratentorial lesions were involved in 5 cases(31.3％).Subtentorial lesions were found to be asymmetrically distributed in all patients.In terms of MRI imaging findings,acquired immunodeficiency syndrome patients complicated with subtentorial PML lesions exhibited low signal on T,WI and high signal on T2 WI/T2-fluid attenuated inversion recovery(FLAIR)images.The"shrimp sign"and"crescent cerebellar lesion"was respectively observed in 3 and 7 cases on T2 WI.There were no diffusion limitations on diffusion weighted imaging(DWI),no significant enhancement after contrast-enhanced scanning,and no mass effect in all the 16 cases.Conclusion The MRI imaging findings of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome complicated with subtentorial PML exhibit similar features to those observed in PML affecting the cerebral hemispheres.A characteristic"shrimp sign"is often observed on T2WI.The presence of typical MRI imaging findings,along with the patient's clinical history and the detection of JC virus deoxyribonucleic acid(DNA)in the cerebrospinal fluid(CSF),can aid in the accurate diagnosis of PML.

Objective To compare the clinical safety and efficacy of CT-guided hook-wire localization of≤10mm pulmonary ground-glass nodule(GGN)via different path ways before video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery(VATS).Methods The clinical data of a total of 128 patients with 10 mm pulmonary GGN,who received CT-guided hook wire localization before VATS at The Third Hospital of Mianyang of China between July 2018 and March 2023,were retrospectively analyzed.According to the puncturing localization path way mode,the patients were divided into vertical puncturing group(n=88)and non-vertical puncturing group(n=40).The number of puncturing times,the time spent for puncturing localization,the success rate of puncture,the operation time of VATS,and puncture-related complications of the two groups were recorded.Results No statistically significant differences in the gender,age,smoking history,GGN location,puncture position,nodule size,density characteristics of GGN,emphysema,and nodules-pleura distance existed between the two groups(all P＞0.05).Compared with non-vertical puncturing group,in vertical puncturing group the number of puncturing times was smaller,the time spent for localization was shorter,the incidence of pneumothorax was lower,and the operation time of VATS was shorter,the differences in all the above indexes between the two groups were statistically significant(all P＜0.05);and the subgroup analysis of patients whose GGN was overlapped with rib shadow obtained the same results.Binary logistic regression analysis revealed that non-vertical puncturing and the number of puncturing times were the independent risk factors for the occurrence of pneumothorax.Conclusion CT-guided hook-wire localization of≤10mm pulmonary GGN before VATS is clinically safe and effective.Under the condition when the lesion can be localized within the range of 2.0cm and the shadow overlapping of GGN with the rib and blood vessel can be effectively avoided,vertical puncturing path way mode should be preferred,which can effectively reduce the incidence of pneumothorax and shorten the operation time of VATS.

Objective:To study the expression levels of long non-coding RNA(lncRNA)H19 and insulin-like growth factor 2(IGF2)genes in breast cancer tissue,and to analyze their imprinting status.Methods:Real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR(RT-qPCR)method was used to detect the expression levels of H19 and IGF2 mRNA in breast cancer tissue and adjacent tissue,and the differences in the expressions of H19 and IGF2 mRNA in breast cancer tissue and adjacent tissue were analyzed;single nucleotide polymorphism(SNP)was used to distinguish the allele expression status(homozygous or heterozygous).For heterozygous IGF2(Apa Ⅰ site)or H19(Alu Ⅰ site)in genomic DNA,imprinting analysis was used to detect the imprinting status of H19 and IGF2 in breast cancer tissue,that were maintenance of imprinting(MOI)or loss of imprinting(LOI);the relationship between the expressions of H19 and IGF2 and molecular subtypes in breast cancer tissue were also analyzed.Results:The RT-qPCR results showed that the expression levels of H19 and IGF2 mRNA in breast cancer tissue were higher than those in adjacent tissue(P＜0.01).There was a positive correlation between the expression levels of H19 mRNA and IGF2 mRNA(r=0.567,P＜0.01).Compared with adjacent tissue,the expression levels of H19 mRNA in cancer tissue of the breast cancer patients with various molecular subtypes were increased(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01).LOI was observed in both H19 and IGF2 in breast cancer tissue,and the incidence of IGF2 LOI was 36.7％,which was higher than that of H19 LOI(4.3％).The RT-qPCR results showed that the expression level of IGF2 mRNA in breast cancer tissue in IGF2 LOI group was significantly higher than that in IGF2 MOI group(P＜0.01).Conclusion:The expression levels of H19 and IGF2 mRNA in breast cancer tissue are significantly higher than those in adjacent tissue.The incidence of IGF2 LOI is higher than that of H19 LOI,and IGF2 LOI may be one of the key factors in the pathogenesis of breast cancer.

Objective To investigate the effects of different angles of pulmonary surfactant(PS)administration on the incidence of bronchopulmonary dysplasia and intracranial hemorrhage in preterm infants.Methods A prospective study was conducted on 146 preterm infants(gestational age＜32 weeks)admitted to the Department of Neonatology,Provincial Hospital Affiliated to Anhui Medical University from January 2019 to May 2023.The infants were randomly assigned to different angles for injection of pulmonary surfactant groups:0° group(34 cases),30° group(36 cases),45° group(38 cases),and 60° group(38 cases).Clinical indicators and outcomes were compared among the groups.Results The oxygenation index was lower in the 60° group compared with the other three groups,with shorter invasive ventilation time and oxygen use time,and a lower incidence of bronchopulmonary dysplasia than the other three groups(P＜0.05).The incidence of intracranial hemorrhage was lower in the 60° group compared to the 0° group(P＜0.05).The cure rate in the 60° group was higher than that in the 0° group and the 30° group(P＜0.05).Conclusions The clinical efficacy of injection of pulmonary surfactant at a 60° angle is higher than other angles,reducing the incidence of intracranial hemorrhage and bronchopulmonary dysplasia in preterm infants.[Chinese Journal of Contemporary Pediatrics,2024,26(4):337-342]

With the prevalence of myopia in Asia, the prevalence of high myopia is gradually increasing, and high myopia has undoubtedly become a public health problem in Asia and even around the globe. As a relatively common pathological change in the eyes of patients with high myopia, optic disc tilt may also become a risk factor for diseases such as glaucoma and macular degeneration, thereby increasing the risk of visual impairment. However, the mechanism of optic disc tilt in high myopia and the role of optic disc tilt in the aggravation of high myopia complications still needs to be further explored. Therefore, this article collects and organizes relevant literatures on optic disc tilt, and makes a comprehensive discussion on the mechanism of optic disc shape changing caused by high myopia and the impact on various complications, so as to provide a certain basis for clinical diagnosis and treatment of high myopia and its complications.
