Objective:To investigate serum vitamin A and vitamin D status in children aged 2-<7 years in 20 cities in China.Methods:A cross-sectional study was conducted. A total of 2 924 healthy children aged 2-<7 years were recruited from September 2018 to September 2019 from 20 cities in China, categorized by age groups of 2-<3 years, 3-<5 years, and 5-<7 years. The demographic and economic characteristics and health-related information of the enrolled children were investigated. Body weight and height were measured by professional staff members. The serum vitamin A and vitamin D levels were detected by high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. Chi-square test and Logistic regression were applied to analyze the association between vitamin A and vitamin D deficiency and insufficiency as well as their underlying impact factors.Results:The age of the 2 924 enrolled children was 4.33 (3.42, 5.17) years. There were 1 726 males (59.03%) and 1 198 females (40.97%). The prevalences of vitamin A and vitamin D deficiency in enrolled children were 2.19% (64/2 924) and 3.52% (103/2 924), respectively, and the insufficiency rates were 29.27% (856/2 924) and 22.20% (649/2 924), respectively. Children with both vitamin A and vitamin D deficiencies or insufficiencies were found in 10.50% (307/2 924) of cases. Both vitamin A ( χ2=7.91 and 8.06, both P=0.005) and vitamin D ( χ2=71.35 and 115.10, both P<0.001) insufficiency rates were higher in children aged 3-<5 and 5-<7 years than those in children aged 2-<3 years. Vitamin A and vitamin D supplementation in the last 3 months was a protective factor for vitamin A and D deficiency and insufficiency, respectively ( OR=0.68 and 0.22, 95% CI 0.49-0.95 and 0.13-0.40, both P<0.05). The rates of vitamin A and D insufficiency was higher in children with annual household incomes <60 000 RMB than in those with annual household incomes ≥60 000 RMB ( χ2=34.11 and 10.43, both P<0.01). Northwest and Southwest had the highest rates of vitamin A and vitamin D insufficiency in children aged 2-<7 yeas, respectively ( χ2=93.22 and 202.54, both P<0.001). Conclusions:Among 20 cities in China, children aged 2-<7 years experience high rates of vitamin A and vitamin D insufficiency, which are affected by age, family economic level, vitamin A and vitamin D supplementation, and regional economic level. The current results suggest that high level of attention should be paid to vitamin A and vitamin D nutritional status of preschool children.

The extremely low bioavailability of oral paclitaxel (PTX) mainly due to the complicated gastrointestinal environment, the obstruction of intestinal mucus layer and epithelium barrier. Thus, it is of great significance to construct a coordinative delivery system which can overcome multiple intestinal physicochemical obstacles simultaneously. In this work, a high-density PEGylation-based glycocholic acid-decorated micelles (PTX@GNPs) was constructed by a novel polymer, 9-Fluorenylmethoxycarbonyl-polyethylene glycocholic acid (Fmoc-PEG-GCA). The Fmoc motif in this polymer could encapsulate PTX via π‒π stacking to form the core of micelles, and the low molecular weight and non-long hydrophobic chain of Fmoc ensures the high-density of PEG. Based on this versatile and flexible carriers, PTX@GNPs possess mucus trapping escape ability due to the flexible PEG, and excellent intestine epithelium targeting attributed to the high affinity of GCA with apical sodium-dependent bile acid transporter. The in vitro and in vivo results showed that this oral micelle could enhance oral bioavailability of PTX, and exhibited similar antitumor efficacy to Taxol injection via intravenous route. In addition, oral PTX@GNPs administered with lower dosage within shorter interval could increase in vivo retention time of PTX, which supposed to remodel immune microenvironment and enhance oral chemotherapy efficacy by synergistic effect.

Peptide‒drug conjugates (PDCs) are drug delivery systems consisting of a drug covalently coupled to a multifunctional peptide via a cleavable linker. As an emerging prodrug strategy, PDCs not only preserve the function and bioactivity of the peptides but also release the drugs responsively with the cleavable property of the linkers. Given the ability to significantly improve the circulation stability and targeting of drugs in vivo and reduce the toxic side effects of drugs, PDCs have already been extensively applied in drug delivery. Herein, we review the types and mechanisms of peptides, linkers and drugs used to construct PDCs, and summarize the clinical applications and challenges of PDC drugs.

In recent years, immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have greatly improved the survival rate of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients without driver mutation. Compared with wild-type tumors, tumors with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations have greater heterogeneity in immune microenvironment characteristics such as programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1) and tumor mutational burden (TMB). Whether ICIs is suitable for NSCLC patients with EGFR mutation has been controversial. Clinical studies have shown that immunomonotherapy has no significant effect on patients with EGFR mutant NSCLC. ICIs combined with chemotherapy and antiangiogenic drugs show good survival benefits. This paper overviews the clinical research and related mechanism of ICIs single drug or combination therapy inadvanced NSCLC patients with EGFR mutation.

In the past 20 years, with the development of molecular biology, the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) has been developing. Targeted therapy has improved the survival period of patients with positive mutation of tumor driver gene. More and more targets have been found gradually. Drugs targeting different driving genes have brought the treatment of NSCLC into a promising target era. Among the many driving genes of NSCLC, the fusion of transfection proto oncogene (RET) is the addition of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), analytic lymphama kinase (ALK) and c-ros oncogene 1-receptor tyrosine kinase (ROS1) are emerging targets. Targeted drugs for RET gene fusion have been constantly updated. Recently, new high selective RET inhibitors blu-667 and loxo-292 have made important breakthroughs. This paper will review the review of the fusion mutation of RET gene in NSCLC, the detection methods, clinicopathological characteristics, targeted treatment and the research progress after drug resistance.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of photodynamic therapy (PDT) combined with oral isotretinoin in the treatment of moderate to severe acne.Methods:Ninty patients with moderate and severe acne [42 males and 48 females; aged 18-35 (23.98±4.25)] in the Department of Dermatology, China Japan Friendship Hospital of Jilin University from January to June, 2018, were divided into three groups: PDT combined with isotretinoin group (combined group), PDT group and isotretinoin group, with 30 patients in each group. The curative effect was evaluated on the 30th and 60th day of the treatment and the follow-up was carried out regularly.Results:At 10, 20, and 30 days of the treatment, the clearance rates of non-inflammatory skin lesions and total skin lesions were better than that of the PDT group; the clearance rates of inflammatory, non-inflammatory and total skin lesions in the combined group were better than those of the isotretinoin group. At 30 days of treatment, the efficacy of the combined group was better than that of the PDT group (χ 2=13.169, P<0.05) and isotretinoin group (χ 2=19.606, P<0.05). The treatment course of the combined group was shorter than that of the PDT group ( P<0.05). Six months after the treatment, the recurrence rate of the combined group was lower than that of the isotretinoin group (χ 2=4.941, P<0.05). And there was no significant difference of the incidence of adverse reactions between the above two groups ( P>0.05). Conclusions:The combination of photodynamic therapy and oral isotretinoin therapy for moderate to severe acne can improve the efficacy, shorten the course of treatment, and reduce the recurrence rate and adverse reactions, which provides a new idea for the treatment of acne.

"Liquid biopsy" have been intensively studied in recent decades. The exosomes carry their maternal partial functional proteins and genes. As a form of intercellular vesicular transport, exosome-mediated intercellular communication participates in a variety of physiological and pathological processes. The information transmission mediated by exosomes is associated with pathophysiological status and plays an important role in the pathogenesis of cancer. Their detection may be beneficial for the diagnosis and treatment of tumor. This article reviews advances in knowledge on the exosome properties, the effect of exosomes on malignant tumorigenesis, and their clinical application. The data will provide a reference for clinical practitioners.
