Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of vitamin D combined with atomoxetine hydrochloride in the treatment of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder(ADHD)in children.Methods A retrospective analysis was performed for the data of children with ADHD admitted to Huzhou First People's Hospital from September 2022 to September 2023,and the children were divided into combination group and control group according to the diagnosis and treatment plan.The efficacy of treatment and cognitive function[Mini-Mental State Examination Scale(MMSE)and Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children,Fourth Edition(WISC-IV.)],behavioral dysfunction[Conners]and neurofilament markers[neurential-specific enolase(NSE)and neurofilament light chain protein(NFL))before and after 3 months of treatment were observed and compared after treatment.The occurrence of adverse reactions during the treatment period was observed and recorded,and the safety was evaluated.Results A total of 101 children with ADHD were enrolled,including 51 in the combined group and 50 in the control group.After treatment,the total effective rate of the combination group was significantly higher than that of the control group(P<0.05).Before treatment,there were no significant differences in MMSE score,WISC-IV.score,Conners score,serum NSE level and serum NFL level between the two groups(P>0.05).After treatment,the MMSE score,WISC-IV.score,Conners score,serum NSE level and serum NFL level of the two groups were significantly improved compared with those before treatment(P<0.05),and the improvement degree in the combination group was better than that in the control group(P<0.05).There was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions between the two groups during treatment(P>0.05).Conclusion Compared with atomoxetine hydrochloride monotherapy,vitamin D combined with atomoxetine hydrochloride has better efficacy in children with ADHD,and can improve cognitive function,behavioral dysfunction and neurological impairment,with high safety.

Objective: To analyze the composition and richness of intestinal microflora in children with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and the role of which in pathogenesis of NAFLD. Methods: This was a prospective case-control study. From November 2015 to June 2017, 19 children diagnosed with NAFLD according to the 2010 edition of diagnostic criteria were enrolled voluntarily in the Second and First Affiliated Hospitals of Zhejiang Chinese Medicine University. Twenty-two healthy children were enrolled in the control group. Among the patients, 10 were males and 9 were females, at the mean age of (11.0±1.0) years; 10 males and 12 females in the control group, at the mean age of (9.0±1.2) years. The body mass index (BMI) and waist circumference were recorded, and the fasting blood glucose, total cholesterol, triglyceride, high-density lipoprotein and low-density lipoprotein were detected. Feces were collected and the fecal microorganisms were extracted with magnetic beads methods; the composition and the richness of intestinal microflora in the two groups were detected with 16S rDNA high throughput sequencing technology. The KO differential gene expression and KEGG signal pathway enrichment were analyzed with PICRUST software. The intestinal flora characteristics between the two groups were compared with t test or Mann-Whitney U test and Willcoxon W test. Results: The BMI, waist circumference and triglyceride were higher in NAFLD group than those in the control group (BMI (25.1±2.7) vs. (18.2±1.5)kg/m², t=9.912, P=0.000; waist circumference (88.6±6.6) vs. (71.5±6.3) cm, t=8.520, P=0.000; triglyceride (0.9±0.4) vs.(0.7±0.3)mmol/L, t=2.060, P=0.046). The abundance and diversity index of intestinal microflora were lower in the NAFLD group (Shannon index 3.99 (3.13, 4.54) vs. 4.63 (4.21, 4.81), Z=-2.065, P=0.039; Simpson index 0.85 (0.70, 0.89) vs. 0.90 (0.88, 0.93), Z=-2.431, P=0.015; ACE index 235.76 (205.26, 361.94) vs. 326.96 (275.34, 368.65), Z=-2.092, P=0.036). At the level of phylum, the proportion of Actinomycetes was lower and the proportion of Thermus was higher in NAFLD group (Actinobacteri 29.807 (14.723, 62.080) ×10^-3 vs. 63.212 (46.133, 172.071) ×10^-3, Z=-2.667, P=0.008; Thermus 0.033 (0.000, 0.226) ×10^-3 vs. 0.000 (0.000, 0.031) ×10^-3, Z=-2.729, P=0.006) . At the level of genus, the proportion of Bacteroides and Bifidobacterium in the NAFLD group were significantly lower (Bacteroides 78.757 (11.430, 151.621) ×10^-3 vs. 356.821 (161.049, 403.037) ×10^-3, Z=-2.771, P=0.006; Bifidobacterium 19.680 (6.181, 53.944) ×10^-3 vs. 54.721 (31.911, 146.410) ×10^-3, Z=-2.458, P=0.014); the proportion of Prevotella in NAFLD group was significantly higher (3.089 (0.165, 63.502) ×10^-3 vs. 0.432 (0.029, 2.257) ×10^-3, Z=-2.112, P=0.035). Based on the KEGG database, 78 differentially expressed genes and 26 differential metabolic pathways were found, among which the function genes of K01470, K01961 and K07258 were concentrated in the pathways of arginine and proline metabolism, fatty acid synthesis, and polysaccharides biosynthesis and metabolism. Besides, these three function genes were related to Bacteroides, Prevotella, Bifidobacterium and Ruminococcus. Conclusion NAFLD children have intestinal flora disturbances in both diversity and abundance, which may alter lipid metabolic pathways through differential gene expressions, contributing to the pathogenesis of NAFLD.

The low expression of microRNA-335 (miR-335) indicates poor prognosis in many types of cancer,such as gastric cancer,breast cancer,lung cancer and other solid tumors.The low expression of miR-335 can promote tumor metastasis and progression,and is associated with histological grading,lymph node metastasis and tumor staging,which provids a new way of thinking for the diagnosis and treatment of tumors.
