Objective To investigate the effect of percutaneous endoscopic transforaminal discectomy(PETD)on L5-S1 lumbar disc herniation(LDH)and the influence of iliac crest height on the clinical efficacy.Methods A total of 86 patients treated with PETD for LDH(L5-S1 segment)from February 2019 to February 2018 were selected and grouped according to the relationship between the highest point of the iliac crest and the position of the L4-5 pedicle.Forty-eighty patients with the highest point of the iliac crest located below the upper edge of the L5 pedicle were included in group A;thirty-three patients with the highest point of the iliac crest located between the lower edge of the L4 pedicle and the upper edge of the L5 pedicle were included in group B,and five patients with the highest point of the iliac crest located above the lower edge of the L4 pedicle were included in group C.The operation indexes of the three groups were compared.The visual analogue score(VAS)and Oswestry Disability index(ODI)before and after surgery[preoperative(T0),1 week after surgery(T1),1 month,6 months and 12 months after surgery(T2,T3,T4)]were compared among the three groups.Results There was no difference in operation time and blood loss among the three groups(P>0.05).At T0,there was no difference in VAS score and ODI among the three groups(P>0.05).At T1-T4,when VAS score and ODI of the three groups were lower than that at T0,VAS in group A and B was lower than that in group C(P<0.05),but there was no difference between group A and B(P>0.05).Conclusion PETD has significantly clinical efficacy in the treatment of L5-S1 LDH,and whether the iliac crest height is higher than the level of the lower edge of the L4 pedicle will affect its clinical efficacy.

Objective:To investigate the clinicopathological factors affecting the long-term survival of patients with duodenal papillary carcinoma (DPC) after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD).Methods:The clinicopathological and follow-up data of patients with DPC who underwent PD at the First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University and the Second Hospital of Anhui Medical University from Jan 2015 to Dec 2021 were retrospectively analyzed.Results:All 73 cases have been followed-up. The median follow-up time was 60 months. Multivariate analysis of COX proportional risk model showed that positive lymph node metastasis and tumor size over 2.5 cm were common independent risk factors for OS and DFS. Lymph node metastasis was confirmed pathologically in 20 patients. Multivariate analysis results of Logistic regression model showed that smoking, tumor breaking through the serous layer and tumor low differentiation were independent risk factors for lymph node metastasis.Conclusions:Poor prognosis was associated with tumors that were larger than 2.5 cm, and with lymph node metastases. Preoperative smoking history, tumor breaking through the serous layer and low tumor differentiation were the predictors of positive lymph node metastasis.

Objective To investigate the prevalence of hepatitis D virus (HDV) infection among patients with chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection in some regions of China. Methods Serum samples were collected from 3 131 patients with chronic HBV infection in 10 provinces, cities, and autonomous regions of China from March 2021 to June 2022, and anti-HDV IgG ELISA was used for the detection of all serum samples. Nested reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (nRT-PCR) was used to detect HDV RNA in anti-HDV IgG-positive samples, and the nRT-PCR amplification products of HDV RNA-positive samples were sequenced and analyzed to determine HDV genotype. The clinical features of anti-HDV IgG-positive patients were analyzed. The Mann-Whitney U rank sum test was used for comparison of continuous data between two groups, and the chi-square test or the Fisher's exact test was used for comparison of categorical data between two groups. Results The positive rate of anti-HDV IgG in the 3 131 patients with chronic HBV infection was 0.70% (22/3 131), and that in the patients with chronic HBV infection in Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, Beijing, and Hunan Province was 1.81% (16/886), 0.88% (2/226), 0.28% (2/708), and 1.00% (2/200), respectively; the patients with chronic HBV infection in Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region had a significantly higher positive rate of anti-HDV IgG than those in Beijing ( P =0.004), and there was no significant difference between the other regions ( P > 0.05). Clinical features of the patients with chronic HBV infection in Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region showed that compared with the anti-HDV IgG-negative group, the anti-HDV IgG-positive group had a significantly higher proportion of patients with Mongol nationality ( P =0.001), abnormal alanine aminotransferase ( P =0.007), or antiviral treatment ( P =0.029), as well as a significantly lower median HBV DNA level ( P =0.030). A total of 19 HDV RNA-positive samples were identified, all of which had HDV genotype 1. Conclusion The prevalence rate of HDV varies greatly across different regions of China, with a higher prevalence rate of HDV in patients with chronic HBV infection from Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region. HDV genotype 1 is the predominant genotype in some provinces and cities of northern China.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the genetic basis for a patient with Dilated cardiomyopathy. METHODS: A patient admitted to Beijing Anzhen Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University in April 2022 was selected as the study subject. Clinical data and family history of the patient was collected. Targeted exome sequencing was carried out. Candidate variant was verified by Sanger sequencing and bioinformatic analysis based on guidelines of the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics (ACMG). RESULTS: DNA sequencing revealed that the patient has harbored a heterozygous c.5044dupG frameshift variant of the FLNC gene. Based on the ACMG guidelines, the variant was predicted to be likely pathogenic (PVS1+PM2_Supporting+PP4). CONCLUSION The heterozygous c.5044dupG variant of the FLNC gene probably underlay the pathogenesis in this patient, which has provided a basis for the genetic counseling for his family.

COVID-19 is caused by a novel coronavirus-severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus type 2 (SARS-CoV-2), which has being spreading around the world, posing a serious threat to human health and lives. Neutralizing antibodies and small molecule inhibitors for virus replication cycle are the main antiviral treatment for novel coronavirus recommended in China. To further promote the rational use of antiviral therapy in clinical practice, the National Center for Infectious Diseases (Beijing Ditan Hospital Capital Medical University and the First Affiliated Hospital, Zhejiang University School of Medicine) invited experts in fields of infectious diseases, respiratory and intensive care to develop an Expert Consensus on Antiviral Therapy of COVID-19 based on the Diagnosis and Treatment Guideline for COVID-19 ( trial version 10) and experiences in the diagnosis and treatment of COVID-19 in China. The consensus is concise, practical and highly operable, hopefully it would improve the understanding of antiviral therapy for clinicians and provide suggestions for standardized medication in treatment of COVID-19.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the genetic basis for a girl with febrile convulsion as the main manifestation. METHODS: The child was subjected to whole exome sequencing (WES) and copy number variation sequencing(CNV-seq). Fluorescence quantitative PCR was carried out to validate the microdeletion in her family. RESULTS: The 7-year-old girl was diagnosed with febrile convulsion (complex type) for having fever for 3 days, mild cough and low thermal convulsion once. Her father, mother and aunt also had a history of febrile convulsion. A heterozygous deletion with a size of approximately 1.5 Mb was detected in the 16p13.11 region by WES and CNV-seq. The deletion has derived from her father and was confirmed by fluorescence quantitative PCR. CONCLUSION 16p13.11 microdeletion syndrome has significant clinical heterogeneity. Different from those with epilepsy, mental retardation, autism, multiple malformations, carriers of 16p13.11 deletion may only manifest with febrile convulsion. Deletion of certain gene(s) from the region may be related to febrile convulsion and underlay the symptom of this child.

AIM: To investigate the effect of nobiletin (Nob) on cardiomyocyte hypertrophy induced by high glucose and its mechanism. METHODS: Neonatal rat cardiomyocytes (NRCMS) were stimulated with high glucose (HG) to establish cardiomyocyte hypertrophy and nobiletin was given. Cell viability was measured by MTT assay. C-myc and Nppa mRNA levels were detected by qRT-PCR. Cellular surface area was detected by immunofluorescence, and Nrf2 and HO-1 protein expressions were detected by Western blot. RESULTS: After stimulation with 33.3 mmol/L HG for 48 h, the survival rate of NRCMS was significantly decreased, C-myc, Nppa mRNA levels and cellular surface area were significantly increased, Nrf2 and HO-1 protein expression were significantly decreased (P<0.05). After Nob treatment, compared with HG group, cellular surface area, Nrf2 and HO-1 protein expression were significantly increased, C-myc and Nppa mRNA levels were significantly decreased. The above indexes were reversed by using Nrf2 inhibitor. CONCLUSION: Nob inhibits cardiomyocyte hypertrophy induced by high glucose, and its mechanism may be related to the activation of Nrf2/HO-1 signaling pathway.
