Objective Idiopathic rolandic epilepsy syndrome （IRES） is the most common epilepsy syndrome in childhood， and its lesion site remains undetermined. This article aims to investigate the source of epileptiform discharges in IRES using magnetoencephalography （MEG）.Methods A total of 70 patients with IRES were enrolled in this prospective MEG-based study， among whom there were 53 children with benign epilepsy of childhood with centrotemporal spikes （BECTS）， 12 children with atypical benign partial epilepsy （ABPE）， 3 children with Landau-Kleffner syndrome （LKS）， and 2 children with epileptic encephalopathy with continuous spike-and-waves during slow-wave sleep （CSWS）. Epileptiform discharges were collected independently from each patient 10 times， and an MEG source analysis was performed. Standardized low-resolution brain electromagnetic tomography was used to perform source localization of the distributed source model. The spike source density was quantified into amplitude， and source location was determined according to the Desikan-Killiany atlas. The association between the distribution of spike source in brain and clinical manifestations was analyzed.Results In IRES， there were significant differences in the source locations of epilepsy discharge between BECTS， ABPE， LKS， and CSWS. The current source density of CSWS was stronger in the frontal lobe， the temporal lobe， and the anterior cingulate gyrus， while that of ABPE was stronger in the frontal lobe， and that of BECTS and LKS were stronger in the temporal lobe. The more severe phenotype of epilepsy， such as generalized tonic-clonic seizure， was associated with a stronger current source density in the brain， which was consistent with electroencephalography manifestations.Conclusion This study identifies different sources of epileptiform discharges in IRES. The density distribution of these spike sources may help to explain the discharge， cognitive， and neuropsychological characteristics in different subtypes of IRES.

Emergence agitation （EA） is a common complication after general anesthesia， especially in children and adolescents. Remifentanil， as a short-acting μ-receptor agonist， has become an important drug for the prevention and treatment of EA due to its rapid recovery and low risk of respiratory depression. This article reviews the mechanism of action and clinical research progress of remifentanil in the prevention and treatment of EA. Its mechanism of action involves the inhibition of pain signals mediated by traditional μ-receptor activation and potential new mechanism based on neural-endocrine-immune network， including regulation of microglial inflammatory pathways， and the modulation of cytokines and chemokines，etc. Clinical studies have shown that remifentanil can significantly shorten the recovery time， reduce the incidence of EA， and further optimize the analgesic effect and recovery quality by combining with other drugs （such as local anesthetics， sedatives， and opioid drugs）. Future research should further explore the mechanism of action of remifentanil， optimize clinical treatment strategies， and conduct large- scale clinical trials to standardize the drug use plan， while paying attention to its long-term effects and the development of multimodal treatment plans to promote the further development of EA prevention and treatment plans.

Objective To explore the effect of open reading frame 66(C12ORF66)located at chromosome 12 on the viability of MYCN amplified NB cell lines.Methods DDatasets GSE16476 and GSE49710 in R2 database were analyzed for expression level of C12ORF66 in MYCN amplified and MYCN non-amplified NB cells and its potential correlation with the prognosis of pediatric patients.C12ORF66 mRNA expression level in normal tissue immortalized cell lines,MYCN amplified and MYCN non-amplified cell lines were detected by RT-qRCR.Transient or stable knockdown of C12ORF66 cell lines were constructed to compare the difference in real time cellular analysis(RTCA),colony formation,Ki67 positive cells between the control group and the C12ORF66 knockdown group.Results By analyzing R2 datasets,C12ORF66 level in MYCN amplified samples was significantly higher than that in MYCN non-amplified samples,and the expression of C12ORF66 was negatively correlated with the prognosis of pediatric patients(P＜0.05).C12ORF66 highly expressed in MYCN-amplified BE(2)-C and SK-N-BE(2)cell lines than in MYCN non-amplified CHLA-255 and SH-SY5Y cell lines(P＜0.001).Transient or stable knockdown of C12ORF66 resulted in significant slow down of proliferation of MYCN amplified NB cells(P＜0.001),the colony formation ability was significantly reduced(P＜0.001),and the proportion of Ki67 positive cells was significantly decreased(P＜0.05).Conclusions C12ORF66 was highly expressed in MYCN amplified clinical NB samples and cell lines which is believed to be correlated with poor prognosis of pediatric patients.C12ORF66 knockdown signifi-cantly inhibits cell viability of NB cells.

Objective To evaluate the potential risk of transmission of angiostrongyliasis by common freshwater snails in Dali Bai Autonomous Prefecture, Yunnan Province, so as to provide insights into local surveillance of angiostrongyliasis. Methods Common freshwater snails were collected from Dali Bai Autonomous Prefecture, Yunnan Province from March to April, 2020, and identified and bred in laboratory. SD rats were infected with third-stage larvae of Angiostrongylus cantonensis that were isolated from commercially available Pomacea canaliculata snails in Dali Bai Autonomous Prefecture, and freshwater snails were infected with the first-stage larvae of A. cantonensis that were isolated from the feces of SD rats 39 days post-infection at room temperature. The developmental process and morphological characteristics of worms in hosts were observed, and the percentages of A. cantonensis infections in different species of freshwater snails were calculated. Then, SD rats were infected with the third-stage larvae of A. cantonensis that were isolated from A. cantonensis-infected freshwater snails, and the larval development and reproduction was observed. Results More than 3 000 freshwater snail samples were collected from farmlands, ditches and wetlands around Erhai Lake in Dali Bai Autonomous Prefecture, and Cipangopaludina chinensis, P. canaliculata, Parafossarulus striatulus, Oncomelania hupensis robertsoni, Galba pervia, Physa acuta, Radix swinhoei, Assiminea spp., Tricula spp. and Bellamya spp. were morphologically identified. A total of 105 commercially available P. canaliculata snails were tested for A. cantonensis infections, and 2 P. canaliculata snails were found to be infected with A. cantonensis, in which the third-stage larvae of A. cantonensis were isolated. Ten species of freshwater snails were artificially infected with the third-stage larvae of A. cantonensis, and all 10 species of freshwater snails were found to be infected with A. cantonensis, with the highest positive rate of A. cantonensis infections in Bellamya spp. (62.3%, 137/204), and the lowest in C. chinensis (35.5%, 11/31). After SD rats were infected with the third-stage larvae of A. cantonensis isolated from different species of freshwater snails, mature adult worms of A. cantonensis were yielded. Conclusions Multiple species of freshwater snails may serve as intermediate hosts of A. cantonensis under laboratory conditions in Dali Bai Autonomous Prefecture of Yunnan Province. Further investigations on natural infection of A. cantonensis in wild snails in Dali Bai Autonomous Prefecture seem justified.

Objective:To explore the relationship between the expressions of P21,P27 and proliferating cell nuclear antigen(PCNA)in glomerular mesangial tissue and poor renal prognosis in patients with immunoglobulin A(IgA)nephropathy.Methods:A total of 145 patients with IgA nephropathy treated in Xiaogan Central Hospital from April 2017 to August 2019 were selected as the research object.The expressions of P21,P27 and PCNA in glomerular mesangial tissue were detected by immunohistochemistry.All patients were followed up for 24 months,and the prognosis were counted.The expressions of P21,P27 and PCNA in glomerular mesangial tissue of patients with different prognosis were compared and the influencing factors of poor prognosis in patients with IgA nephropathy were analyzed by Logistic regression analysis.Results:The expression rates of P21,P27 and PCNA positive cells in glomerular mesangial tissue of patients with IgA nephropathy were(38.69±6.83)%,(55.94±8.08)%,(33.47±5.72)%,respectively.The incidence rete of poor prognosis in patients with IgA nephropathy was 17.24%,and the expression rates of P21 and PCNA positive cells in glomerular mesangial tissue of patients with poor prognosis were higher than those in good prognosis group(P<0.05),while the expression rate of P27 positive cells was lower than that in good prognosis group(P<0.05).Logistic multiple regression analysis showed that elevated diastolic blood pressure,increased 24 h proteinuria,mesangial cell proliferation,segmental glomerulosclerosis,renal tubular atrophy/interstitial fibrosis,crescentic body,increased expression rates of P21 and PCNA positive cells and decreased expression rate of P27 positive cells were all risk factors affecting the poor prognosis of patients with IgA nephropathy(P<0.05).Conclusion:There are positive expressions of P21,P27 and PCNA in glomerular mesangial tissue of IgA nephropathy.The expression rates of P21 and PCNA positive cells in glomerular mesangial tissue of of patients with poor prognosis of IgA nephropathy are higher than those with good prognosis,while the expression rate of P27 protein positive cells is lower than those with good prognosis,which are risk factors for poor prognosis of patients with IgA nephropathy.

Extremity vascular firearm injury (EVFI) which occurs in large quantities during wartime and is dispersed in peacetime, can result in acute hemorrhagic shock and compartment syndrome, thus seriously endangering the patients′ life. Compared with vascular trauma, vascular firearm injury not only damages the arteries easily, but also has a more severe damage and a poor prognosis. At present, most of relevant reports on the clinical diagnosis and treatment of EVFI in China are based on the treatment experience in Vietnam′s self-defense counterattack and lack subsequent technology, data and wartime echelon treatment. To this end, the authors discussed the epidemiological characteristics, diagnosis and treatment of EVFI by integrating the literature published since the Afghanistan and Iraq War, aiming to provide reference for the diagnosis and treatment of EVFI in China.

Objective To propose a CT truncated data reconstruction model(DDTrans)based on projection and image dual-domain Transformer coupled feature learning for reducing truncation artifacts and image structure distortion caused by insufficient field of view(FOV)in CT scanning.Methods Transformer was adopted to build projection domain and image domain restoration models,and the long-range dependency modeling capability of the Transformer attention module was used to capture global structural features to restore the projection data information and enhance the reconstructed images.We constructed a differentiable Radon back-projection operator layer between the projection domain and image domain networks to enable end-to-end training of DDTrans.Projection consistency loss was introduced to constrain the image forward-projection results to further improve the accuracy of image reconstruction.Results The experimental results with Mayo simulation data showed that for both partial truncation and interior scanning data,the proposed DDTrans method showed better performance than the comparison algorithms in removing truncation artifacts at the edges and restoring the external information of the FOV.Conclusion The DDTrans method can effectively remove CT truncation artifacts to ensure accurate reconstruction of the data within the FOV and achieve approximate reconstruction of data outside the FOV.

Objective We propose a dual-domain cone beam computed tomography(CBCT)reconstruction framework DualCBR-Net based on improved differentiable domain transform for cone-angle artifact correction.Methods The proposed CBCT dual-domain reconstruction framework DualCBR-Net consists of 3 individual modules:projection preprocessing,differentiable domain transform,and image post-processing.The projection preprocessing module first extends the original projection data in the row direction to ensure full coverage of the scanned object by X-ray.The differentiable domain transform introduces the FDK reconstruction and forward projection operators to complete the forward and gradient backpropagation processes,where the geometric parameters correspond to the extended data dimension to provide crucial prior information in the forward pass of the network and ensure the accuracy in the gradient backpropagation,thus enabling precise learning of cone-beam region data.The image post-processing module further fine-tunes the domain-transformed image to remove residual artifacts and noises.Results The results of validation experiments conducted on Mayo's public chest dataset showed that the proposed DualCBR-Net framework was superior to other comparison methods in terms of artifact removal and structural detail preservation.Compared with the latest methods,the DualCBR-Net framework improved the PSNR and SSIM by 0.6479 and 0.0074,respectively.Conclusion The proposed DualCBR-Net framework for cone-angle artifact correction allows effective joint training of the CBCT dual-domain network and is especially effective for large cone-angle region.

Objective We propose a motion artifact correction algorithm(DMBL)for reducing motion artifacts in reconstructed dental cone-beam computed tomography(CBCT)images based on deep blur learning.Methods A blur encoder was used to extract motion-related degradation features to model the degradation process caused by motion,and the obtained motion degradation features were imported in the artifact correction module for artifact removal.The artifact correction module adopts a joint learning framework for image blur removal and image blur simulation for treatment of spatially varying and random motion patterns.Comparative experiments were conducted to verify the effectiveness of the proposed method using both simulated motion data sets and clinical data sets.Results The experimental results with the simulated dataset showed that compared with the existing methods,the PSNR of the proposed method increased by 2.88%,the SSIM increased by 0.89%,and the RMSE decreased by 10.58%.The results with the clinical dataset showed that the proposed method achieved the highest expert level with a subjective image quality score of 4.417(in a 5-point scale),significantly higher than those of the comparison methods.Conclusion The proposed DMBL algorithm with a deep blur joint learning network structure can effectively reduce motion artifacts in dental CBCT images and achieve high-quality image restoration.
