Objective:To evaluate the clinical effectiveness and safety of fractional microneedle radiofrequency (RF), subsequently followed by narrowband intense pulsed light (IPL), in the treatment of facial photoaging.Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed on 50 female patients who underwent facial photodamage treatment at the Fifth People＇s Hospital of Suzhou from January to December 2021, with an average age of (40±8) years. Each patient received fractional microneedle RF therapy, subsequently followed by two sessions of narrowband IPL therapy at 500-600 nm, with a 4-week interval between treatments. Before and 4 weeks after the final treatment, skin parameters including wrinkles, redness, and sunspots were quantitatively assessed using the Visia skin image analyzer. Patients self-reported their satisfaction levels, and any adverse reactions were recorded.Results:All patients completed the prescribed treatment regimen. Post-treatment evaluations revealed marked improvements in facial skin, characterized by reduced wrinkles, enhanced skin smoothness, tighter contours, and lighter pigmentation spots. Specifically, the pre-treatment scores for wrinkles, sunspots, and redness were (25.6±10.2), (312.6±75.9), and (162.0±68.6) scores, respectively, which significantly decreased to (18.3±7.4), (261.2±82.7), and (129.7±60.1) scores four weeks post-treatment (all P<0.001). The patients＇ satisfaction levels were (6.6±1.2) scores. During treatment, all patients experienced mild erythema and edema, which resolved within 3-4 days. No serious adverse reactions, such as blistering, hyperpigmentation, or scarring, were observed. Conclusions:Fractional microneedle RF therapy, followed by narrowband IPL therapy, emerges as an effective and safe treatment option for facial photodamage, with minimal adverse reactions.

Purpose: There is no optimal prognostic model for T-cell lymphoblastic lymphoma (T-LBL). Here, we discussed the predictive value of total metabolic tumor volume (TMTV) and total lesion glycolysis (TLG) measured on 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography–computed tomography (PET-CT) in T-LBL. Materials and Methods: Thirty-seven treatment naïve T-LBL patients with PET-CT scans were enrolled. TMTV was obtained using the 41% maximum standardized uptake value (SUVmax) threshold method, and TLG was measured as metabolic tumor volume multiplied by the mean SUV. Progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were analyzed by Kaplan-Meier curves and compared by the log-rank test. Results: The optimal cutoff values for SUVmax, TMTV, and TLG were 12.7, 302 cm3, and 890, respectively. A high SUVmax, TMTV, and TLG indicated a shorten PFS and OS. On multivariable analysis, TMTV ≥ 302 cm3, and central nervous system (CNS) involvement predicted inferior PFS, while high SUVmax, TLG and CNS involvement were associated with worse OS. Subsequently, we generated a risk model comprising high SUVmax, TMTV or TLG and CNS involvement, which stratified the population into three risk groups, which had significantly different median PFS of not reached, 14 months, and 7 months for low-risk group, mediate-risk group, and high-risk group, respectively (p < 0.001). Median OS were not reached, 27 months, and 13 months, respectively (p < 0.001). Conclusion Baseline SUVmax, TMTV, and TLG measured on PET-CT are strong predictors of worse outcome in T-LBL. A risk model integrating these three parameters with CNS involvement identifies patients at high risk of disease progression.

OBJECTIVE：To study the relationship of polymorphism of clopidogrel absorption and metabolism related genes CYP2C19（* 2，* 3，* 17），ABCB1 C3435T and PON1 Q192R in patients with coronary heart disease in Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region ，and to explore the characteristics of population and combined diseases. METHODS ：A total of 1 126 patients with coronary heart disease who underwent clopidogrel absorption and metabolism related gene testing during hospitalization in the First Affiliated Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University from January 2016 to June 2020 were included as the study subjects. The gender，age，body mass index （BMI），nationality and the proportion of combined with hypertension and diabetes were compared among different CYP2C19 metabolic phenotypes and ABCB1 C3435T and PON1 Q192R genotypes. RESULTS ：Among 1 126 patients，1 126 had CYP2C19 * 2，* 3 and * 17 genotypes，1 109 had ABCB1 C3435T genotype and 1 123 had PON1 Q192R genotype. The distribution of each genotype was in line with Hardy-Weinberg balance （P＞0.05）. There were 66（5.86％）， com 459（40.76％），476（42.27％） and 125（11.10％）patients with CYP2C19 ultra-rapid metabolizer （UM）， extensive metabolizer（EM），intermediate metabolizer （IM）and poor metabolizer（PM），respectively. The proportion of patients with UM metabolism phenotype with BMI ＞24 was significantly higher than those of patients with IM and PM metabolism phenotypes （P＜0.05）. The proportion of Han nationality patients with UM metabolic phenotype was significantly lower than those of patients with EM ，IM and PM metabolic phenotypes （P＜0.05）；the proportion of Uygur nationality was significantly higher than that of patients with EM ，IM and PM metabolic phenotypes （P＜ 0.05）. There were 355，538 and 216 patients with ABCB1 C3435T wild-type（CC），heterozygous（CT）and mutant homozygous （TT）genotypes，respectively；the proportion of Han nationality in TT genotype patients was significantly lower than that in CC and CT genotype patients （P＜0.05），and the proportion of Uygur nationality was significantly higher than that in CC and CT genotype patients （P＜0.05）；the proportion of TT genotype patients with diabetes was significantly higher than that of patients with CT genotype （P＜0.05）. There were 365，519 and 239 patients with PON1 Q192R wild-type（GG），heterozygous（GA）and mutant homozygous （AA），respectively；the proportion of Han nationality in AA genotype patients was significantly lower than that in GG and GA genotype patients （P＜0.05），and the proportion of Uygur nationality was significantly higher than that of GG and GA genotype patients （P＜0.05）；the proportion of Han nationality and BMI ≤24 in patients with AA genotype were significantly lower than those with GA genotype （P＜0.05），and the proportion of Uygur nationality ，BMI＞24 and hypertension were significantly higher than those in GA genotype patients （P＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS ：There are significant nationality differences among patients with different CYP2C19 metabolic phenotypes and ABCB1 C3435T and PON1 Q192R genotypes. In addition，patients with BMI ＞24 account for high proportion among CYP2C19 UM metabolism genotype ；patients with diabetes account for high proportion among ABCB1 C3435T TT genotype ；patients with BMI ＞24 and hypertension account for high proportion among PON1 Q192R AA genotype.

Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of surgical operation combined with photodynamic therapy for plantar warts.Methods From July 2017 to June 2018,16 patients with plantar warts were enrolled in the Department of Dermatology,the Fifth People's Hospital of Suzhou City.The enrolled patients aged 10 to 42 years,including 12 males and 4 females,with a course of 4 to 15 month,and a total of 47 plantar warts.The plantar warts was removed by surgical operation and bipolar coagulation,followed by the photodynamic treatment with 5-aminolevulinic acid for 3 to 4 times with an interval of 7-10 days.Results Eleven patients showed complete clearance after operation and three times photodynamic treatments,and the other 5 patients underwent 2 operations and four times photodynamic treatments.47 plantar warts in 16 patients were disappeared completely during 6-month post-treatment follow up.The plantar warts clearance rate was 100％,and the skin texture still presented.In addition to local mild erythematous,pain and burning sensation presented after surgery,but no adverse reactions such as infection,ulcers and obvious scars occurred.Conclusions Surgery combined with 5-aminolevulinic acid photodynamic therapy is a favorable treatment for plantar warts.

By activity-guided fractionation, gliotoxin was isolated as an antibacterial metabolite of the fungus Penicillium decumbens which was derived from the jellyfish Nemopilema nomurai. Gliotoxin was further evaluated for antibacterial activity against several piscine and human MDR (multidrug resistance) pathogens. Gliotoxin showed significant antibacterial activity against Gram-positive piscine pathogens such as Streptococcus iniae FP5228, Streptococcus iniae FP3187, Streptococcus parauberis FP3287, Streptococcus parauberis SPOF3K, S. parauberis KSP28, and Lactococcus garvieae FP5245. Gliotoxin showed strong activity especially against S. parauberis SPOF3K and S. iniae FP5228, which are resistant to oxytetracycline. It is noteworthy that gliotoxin effectively suppressed streptococci which are the major pathogens for piscine infection and mortality in aquaculture industry. Gliotoxin also showed strong antibacterial activity against multidrug-resistant human pathogens (MDR) including Enterococcus faecium 5270 and MRSA (methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus) 3089.

High grade B-cell lymphoma was defined as an independent disease in the 2016 new version of the World Health Organization lymphoma classification, including double-hit high grade B-cell lymphoma with myc and bcl-2 or bcl-6 gene rearrangements and high grade B-cell lymphoma, not otherwise specified without myc and bcl-2 or bcl-6 gene rearrangements, both of them are invasive in clinical features. In recent years, there have many studies on it, double-hit lymphoma (DHL) has relatively unique clinical features and poor prognosis. Although high-intensity chemotherapy can prolong the survival of patients, current treatment options have poor efficacy, and specific targeted drug therapies are still required. Single-agent or combination therapy of signal pathway inhibitors can improve the poor prognosis of patients. Immunotherapy is expected to become the direction of future research. This article reviews the definition, diagnosis, prognosis, and latest treatment progress of DHL.

Objective To investigate the relationship between peripheral inflammatory cytokines and anxiety symptoms in patients with the first?episode generalized anxiety disorder. Methods 48 patients diagnosed with the first?episode generalized anxiety disorder according to ICD?10 criteria and 48 healthy sub?jects were recruited. Peripheral levels of IL?1, IL?2, IL?4, IL?5, IL?6, IL?8, IL?10, IL?12p70, GM?CSF and IFN?γ of both groups were evaluated by enzyme?linked immunosorbent assay ( ELISA) ,and CRP was evalua?ted by immunoturbidimetric method. Generalized Anxiety Disorder Scale( GAD?7) and State?Trait Anxiety Inventory ( STAI ) were used to assess the levels of overall anxiety, state anxiety and trait anxiety. Results The levels of CRP ( ( 1. 19 ± 0. 80 ) mg/L vs ( 0. 68 ± 0. 70 ) mg/L, t=3. 31 ) , IL?1α( ( 70. 34 ± 3.60)pg/ml vs (16.94±3.42)pg/ml, t=74.50),IL?2((7.25±3.42)pg/ml vs (4.95±2.31)pg/ml, t=3.85), IL?4((102.02±73.14)pg/ml vs (75.55±32.78)pg/ml, t=2.29),IL?6((12.55±2.37)pg/ml vs (2.71±1.35) pg/ml, t=14.79),IL?8((44.64±16.21)pg/ml vs (35.69±11.70)pg/ml, t=3.10),IL?12((18.16±24.17) pg/ml vs (10.82±4.72)pg/ml, t=2.06),IFN?γ((23.32±15.52)pg/ml vs (16.48±6.80)pg/ml, t=2.79), GM?CSF((19.07±11.12)pg/ml vs (13.40±8.54)pg/ml, t=2.80) in patients with the first?episode general?ized anxiety disorder were significantly higher than normal controls(P<0.05) . Both SAI and TAI had signifi? cantly positive correlation with the levels of IL?1α, IL?2, IL?6, IL?8, IL?12, IFN?γ and GM?CSF ( r=0.24?0.76, P<0.05) . Conclusion The levels of some peripheral inflammatory cytokines in patients with the first?episode generalized anxiety disorder are significantly increased,and they have positive correlation with gener?al anxiety,state anxiety and trait anxiety,which may suggest some immune system defects in the patients.

Objective To analyze the profile of dermcidin (DCD) changes in different stages of acute coronary syndrome (ACS) by quantifying the serum 4 183Da DCD peptide fragment deriving from different ACS patients treated with early antithrombotic therapy.Methods A total of 118 patients with confirmed diagnosis of ACS were enrolled. Immediately after visiting a doctor, the venous blood was collected and afterwards instantly the patient was given orally 300 mg of aspirin and 300 mg clopidogrel, and according to the patient's condition and the consent of his/her or acknowledgement of family members achieved, emergency percutaneous coronary interference (PCI) or thrombolysis or conservative treatment was adopted separately. After anti-thrombotic treatment, at 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 16, 20, 24, 32, 40, 48, 60 and 72 hours, venous blood was collected and serum isolated respectively. The concentration of 4 183Da DCD fragment in serum was determined by matrix assisted laser desorption ionization time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS). Simultaneously, the myoglobin (Myo), cardiac troponin I (cTnI) and MB isoenzyme of creatine kinase (CK-MB) were also detected.Results The mean relative strength of nature logarithmic transformations of 4 183Da DCD fragment of 118 patients with ACS was 2.75±1.02 before treatment on admission, and after intervention therapy (mainly antithrombotic therapy) it was decreased to 1.84±1.19 (P = 0.005) and 1.74±1.12 (P = 0.000) at 2 hours and 4 hours, respectively, and then after 4 hours it was slightly elevated. 4 183Da polypeptide increased earlier than myocardial injury markers.Conclusion Aspirin and clopidogrel can significantly decrease the concentration of 4 183Da DCD peptide fragment in serum in patients with ACS, which indicates that the DCD fragment could be used as one of the indexes for observation on early efficacy of antithrombotic therapy.
