Objective: To summarize the laboratory findings of a case of hemolytic disease of the fetus and newborn (HDFN) caused by Rh system anti-c antibodies and to review the literature, so as to explore the characteristics of anti-c HDFN. Methods: The ABO blood type, Rh blood type, direct antiglobulin test (DAT) results, and the presence of unexpected antibodies and their titers were determined by serological methods. The cases of anti-c HDFN in our laboratory in China and abroad were statistically analyzed, and the incidence of severe HDFN caused by anti-c, anti-D and anti-E was compared. Results: The blood type of the child was B (Rh CcDee) with a positive DAT. Anti-c antibody was detected in both serum and eluate, with a serum antibody titer of 4. The mother’s blood type was AB (Rh CCDee) with a negative DAT, and anti-c antibody was detected in the serum with a titer of 128. Among 20 cases of anti-c HDFN, 17 were DAT positive, and 9 (45%, 9/20) underwent blood transfusion or exchange transfusion. The incidence of severe HDFN was 47.60% (10/21) for anti-c, 47.60% (10/21) for anti-D and 31.30% (5/16) for anti-E. Conclusion: Maternal pregnancy and/or blood transfusion are the main reasons for the production of Rh alloantibodies such as anti-c. The prevention and management of anti-c should be similar to that of anti-D. Rh antigen-matched (five antigens of Rh blood group) transfusion is necessary for women of childbearing age to avoid antibody production, and Rh typing and antibody screening during prenatal examination is recommended to ensure early detection, intervention and treatment.

Atopic dermatitis （AD） is a chronic， recurrent， inflammatory， and pruritus skin disease caused by multiple internal and external factors， ranking first in the global burden of skin diseases. Due to the adverse reactions and high costs of conventional treatments and biologics， the development of natural products has attracted much attention. The nuclear factor-κB （NF-κB） signaling pathway is a key pathway for inhibiting inflammation and modulating immunity. This paper summarizes the pharmacological effects and molecular mechanisms of natural products such as flavonoids， alkaloids， phenols， terpenoids， coumarins， glycosides， and anthraquinones via NF-κB signaling pathway， aiming to provide guidance for the development of natural products. Basic studies have shown that natural products have high safety and efficacy. Oral or topical administration of natural products can regulate the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase （PI3K）/protein kinase B （Akt）， mitogen-activated protein kinase （MAPK）， nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 （Nrf2）， high mobility group box 1 protein （HMGB1）/receptor for advanced glycation endproducts （RAGE）， and nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-like receptor protein 3 （NLRP3） signaling pathways to exert anti-inflammatory， anti-allergy， antioxidant activities， thus reversing the pathological changes of AD. However， it is worth noting that the clinical application of natural products is still insufficient， and more rigorous clinical trials are still needed to verify their effects. The basic experiments and clinical evidence prove that natural products may play a role in alleviating AD， which provide a basis for evaluating the functioning mechanism of natural active substances and enrich the candidates for the development of potential drugs.

Based on the principle of molecular hybridization, fifteen compounds were designed and synthesized through the combination of aminothiazoloxime and phosphonate fragment. The results showed that these compounds had better inhibitory effects on the tested bacteria. In particular, the activities of compounds Ⅲf and Ⅲi against S. aureus, E. coli, methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) and fluoroquinolone-resistant E. coli (FREC) were the most significant, the minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) of Ⅲf was 1, 8, 4, 16 μg·mL^-1 respectively, and the MIC of Ⅲi was 4, 4, 16, 8 μg·mL^-1 respectively, which were slightly lower than that of the control drug oxacillin, and their anti-E. coli, MRSA and FREC activities were superior to that of the control drug oxacillin. Their activities to S. aureus were close to that of oxacillin, and to E. coli, MRSA and FREC were superior to that of oxacillin, which is worthy of further study.

Objective To investigate the efficacy of histone deacetylase(HDAC)inhibitor chidamide combined with the PD-1 inhibitor on CD8+ T cells anti-cancer function in OVA-expressing MC38(MC38-OVA)colorectal-bearing mice.Methods Animal experiments:C57BL/6 tumor models were constructed by subcutaneously injecting MC38-OVA colorectal cancer cells into the back of mice.We randomized mice into control group,chidamide group,anti-PD-1 group and chidamide+anti-PD-1 group(20 each group).We monitored the tumor growth and animal survival rate of each group;we employed a flow-based method to detect the number and ratio of tumor-infiltrating CD8+ T cells,CD8+IFN-γ+ T cells,OVA antigen-specific CD8+ T cells,and the expression changes of regulatory T cells(Treg),myeloid-derived suppressor cells(MDSC),and tumor-associated macrophages(TAM).Cell experiments:We used a flow-based method to detect the apoptosis of CD8+ T cells and MC38-OVA tumor cells after 0,10,25,50,100,or 200 nmol/L chidamide treatment.The proliferation of CD8+ T cells and MC38-OVA tumor cells treated with 0 and 100 nmol/L chidamide was detected by Ki-67 antibody labeling and cell counting.To evaluate CD8+ T cell killing ability,we treated CD8+ T cells with various conditions(control group,chidamide group,anti-PD-1 group and chidamide+anti-PD-1 group)followed by co-culture with MC38-OVA tumor cells,using the flow-based method.In the condition that CD8+ T cells treated with 0 and 100 nmol/L chidamide co-cultured with the same number of MC38-OVA tumor cells,the expression of CD107a was detected by flow cytometry.Results Compared with control group,the tumor growth was inhibited(P<0.05)while the survival rate was improved(P<0.01)in chidamide+anti-PD-1 group.The number of tumor-infiltrating CD8+ T cells was significantly higher in chidamide group,anti-PD-1 group and chidamide+anti-PD-1 group than that in control group(P<0.05).Nonetheless,the ratio and levels of CD8+IFN-γ+ and OVA antigen-specific CD8+ T cells were significantly higher in chidamide+anti-PD-1 group than those in other groups(P<0.05).The in vitro experiment results showed that chidamide could enhance the killing ability of CD8+ T cells and the expression of CD107a.Conclusion Chidamide combined with PD-1 inhibitor significantly enhanced the number and function of tumor-infiltrating CD8+ T cells and increased antigen-specific CD8+ T cells,which will provide a theoretical and experimental basis for the combination of chidamide in clinical solid tumor immunotherapy.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of brexpiprazole in treating acute schizophrenia.Methods Patients with schizophrenia were randomly divided into treatment group and control group.The treatment group was given brexpiprozole 2-4 mg·d-1 orally and the control group was given aripiprazole 10-20 mg·d-1orally,both were treated for 6 weeks.Clinical efficacy of the two groups,the response rate at endpoint,the changes from baseline to endpoint of Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale(PANSS),Clinical Global Impression-Improvement(CGI-S),Personal and Social Performance scale(PSP),PANSS Positive syndrome subscale,PANSS negative syndrome subscale were compared.The incidence of treatment-related adverse events in two groups were compared.Results There were 184 patients in treatment group and 186 patients in control group.After treatment,the response rates of treatment group and control group were 79.50％(140 cases/184 cases)and 82.40％(150 cases/186 cases),the scores of CGI-I of treatment group and control group were(2.00±1.20)and(1.90±1.01),with no significant difference(all P＞0.05).From baseline to Week 6,the mean change of PANSS total score wese(-30.70±16.96)points in treatment group and(-32.20±17.00)points in control group,with no significant difference(P＞0.05).The changes of CGI-S scores in treatment group and control group were(-2.00±1.27)and(-1.90±1.22)points,PSP scores were(18.80±14.77)and(19.20±14.55)points,PANSS positive syndrome scores were(-10.30±5.93)and(-10.80±5.81)points,PANSS negative syndrome scores were(-6.80±5.98)and(-7.30±5.15)points,with no significant difference(P＞0.05).There was no significant difference in the incidence of treatment-related adverse events between the two group(69.00％vs.64.50％,P＞0.05).Conclusion The non-inferiority of Brexpiprazole to aripiprazole was established,with comparable efficacy and acceptability.

Objective To explore the current status of H.pylori infection in the natural population of Sanya City,analyze its influencing factors,and provide a reference basis for the prevention and control of H.pylori infection.Methods A total of 677 residents from four districts of Sanya City were selected by overall stratified random sampling method,and were subjected to urea 14C breath test and questionnaire survey to calculate the positive rate of H.pylori in the natural population and analyze the influencing factors of H.pylori infection.Results A total of 606 residents were included,and the number of H.pylori positive detections was 261,with a positive detection rate of 38.5％.Among them,different ethnicity,marital status,smoking,eating vegetables and fruits,and literacy level were associated with H.pylori infection(P＜0.05);gender,age,BMI,alcohol consumption,drinking water source,betel quid chewing,and the number of cohabitants were not significantly associated with H.pylori infection(P＞0.05).Family infection was an independent risk factor for H.pylori infection in the natural population of Sanya City,and Li ethnicity,frequent consumption of fruits and vegetables,and college and higher education level were independent protective factors for H.pylori infection in the natural population of Sanya City.Conclusion The rate of H.pylori infection in the natural population of Sanya City is lower than the national average.Consuming more fruits and vegetables and improving the awareness of hygiene protection are conducive to the prevention of H.pylori infection;and the promotion of the family and related members with the same examination and treatment is important to avoid aggregation of infection within the family.

Objective To investigate the value of a nomogram model based on contrast-enhanced CT radiomics in predicting the histological type of thymoma.Methods A total of 154 patients(101 in low-risk group and 53 in high-risk group)with thymoma confirmed by pathology were retrospectively selected.The cases were randomly divided into training set(n=107)and validation set(n=47)at a ratio of 7∶3.The three-dimensional volume of interest(VOI)of the whole lesion on the image from the arterial phase of contrast-enhanced CT was manually delineated,and the radiomics features were extracted.Based on the selected radiomics features,the radiomics model was constructed and the model Radiomics score(Radscore)was calculated.Clinical risk factors were screened to construct a clinical model,and a nomogram model was constructed by fusing Radscore and clinical risk factors.The receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve,area under the curve(AUC),accuracy,sensitivity and specificity were compared to analyze the predictive efficacy and difference of different models for high-risk and low-risk thymoma.The decision curve and calibration curve were drawn to evaluate the clinical value and fitting performance of the nomogram model.Results Eleven radiomics features were selected to construct the radiomics model,and five clinical risk factors[myasthenia gravis(MG),morphology,border,surrounding tissue invasion and CT value in arterial phase]were used to construct the clinical model.In the training set,the AUC of the nomogram model(0.88)was higher than that of the radiomics model(0.80)and the clinical model(0.79),and the difference was statistically significant(Z=2.233,2.713,P=0.026,0.007,respectively).In the validation set,the AUC of the nomogram model was higher than that of the radiomics and clinical models,but the difference was not statistically significant.The calibration curve showed that the nomogram model had good fitting performance,and the decision curve showed that the nomogram model had high clinical benefit.Conclusion The nomogram model based on contrast-enhanced CT can effectively predict high-risk and low-risk thymoma,which is helpful to guide clinicians to make relevant decisions.

Objective To investigate the mid-term effect and complications of arthroscopic popliteal tendon suture in the treatment of lateral meniscus injury.Methods From January 2016 to December 2020,the data of 57 patients with lateral meniscus popliteal tendon injury treated by arthroscopic popliteal tendon suture fixation were retrospectively analyzed,includ-ing 35 males and 22 females,aged from 18 to 47 years old with an average of(32.9±7.9)years old.Knee function was evaluat-ed using the International Knee Documentation Committee(IKDC)and Lysholm scores both before the operation and at the fi-nal follow-up.Meniscus healing was evaluated according to the postoperative Barrett standard.Wound healing complications,such as vascular injury,nerve injury,and lower extremity venous thrombosis,were recorded.Results All 57 patients were fol-lowed up for 12 to 58 months with an average of(38.1±14.9)months.The incisions of the patients after the operation were all Grade A healing without infection,popliteal tendon injury,blood vessel injury,nerve injury and lower extremity venous throm-bosis.The IKDC score increased from(49.7±3.6)points preoperatively to(88.5±4.4)points in the final follow-up(P＜0.05).The Lysholm score increased from(48.8±4.9)points preoperatively to(91.9±3.9)points at the final follow-up(P＜0.05).At 3,6 months and 1 year after operation,according to Barrett's criteria,54 cases were clinically healed,the healing rate was 94.7％(54/57).Conclusion This study preliminarily confirmed that arthroscopic suture technique can result in clinical sta-bility through suture and fixation of the meniscus in the injured lateral popliteal tendon area.No adverse effects on knee joint function were found in the mid-term follow-up after the operation.

Rotator cuff tear is a common shoulder injury in daily work and sports activities.Arthroscopic repair is the most widely used method for rotator cuff tears,and the postoperative prognosis is good.However,there are still a series of postopera-tive complications that affect the therapeutic effect and patient satisfaction,such as postoperative pain,infection,retear,shoul-der stiffness,etc.This paper reviews the occurrence and influencing factors of shoulder stiffness after arthroscopic repair of ro-tator cuff tear,in order to provide reference for the prevention of postoperative shoulder stiffness and explore the mechanism of postoperative shoulder stiffness.
