Objective To analyze the adverse events(AEs)associated with linezolid in tuberculosis treatment reported in the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System(FAERS)database,assess its safety profile,and provide scientific evidence for ra-tional clinical use.Methods Reports of adverse events related to linezolid in tuberculosis treatment from Q1 2016 to Q1 2024 were extracted.The data were cleaned and pre-processed,and signal detection was performed using the Reporting Odds Ratio(ROR)and Information Component(IC)methods.Results A total of 1,135 linezolid-related AEs were identified,with the most common types being hospitalization(18.46％)and death(10.99％).The Results indicated that linezolid AEs primarily involved disorders of the blood and lymphatic system,as well as liver and biliary system diseases.Common adverse reactions in-cluded anemia,peripheral neuropathy,and optic neuropathy.Additionally,some adverse reaction signals not mentioned in the prescribing information were identified,such as polyneuropathy(ROR=75.25,IC025=5.8),toxic optic neuropathy(ROR=776.95,IC025=8.86),and hearing loss(ROR=14.66,IC025=3.26).Conclusion This study suggests that linezolid may be associated with some serious adverse reactions in tuberculosis treatment.It is recommended that patients on long-term linezolid therapy undergo regular neurological,ophthalmological,and auditory assessments to provide a more adequate basis for rational clinical use.

Objective:To explore the clinical effect of a pedicled gracilis musculocutaneous flap on reconstruction of chronic sinus wounds in inguinal region.Methods:From September 2015 to June 2023, 10 patients with chronic inguinal sinus wounds were treated in Medical Centre of Burn Plastic and Wound Repair, the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University. The patients were 6 males and 4 females, aged 15-72 years old with an average age of 45 years old. Causes of injury: 4 patients were of non-healed wound after inguinal lymph node dissection for external genital or penile cancer, 2 of chronic radiation ulcers formed in the inguinal area after radiotherapy, 2 of femoral artery angiography site non-healing after lower limb artery balloon angioplasty, 1 of wound non-healing after resection of inguinal protuberant skin fibrosarcoma, and 1 of non-healing ulceration after repeated scratching due to inguinal pruritus. The wounds were all chronic in the groin region, all with a course over 30 days and sinus formation. Soft tissue defects on the surface of wounds ranged from 2.0 cm × 3.0 cm to 5.0 cm × 7.0 cm, and the depth of the sinus was from 2.0 cm to 5.0 cm. After debridement, ipsilateral gracilis musculocutaneous flaps were taken for defect reconstruction. Size of the flaps was 3.5 cm × 4.0 cm - 8.0 cm × 9.0 cm, the length of the gracilis musculocutaneous composite flaps was 16.0 - 24.0 cm, and the volume of the flap was 96.0 - 180.0 cm 3. The gracilis tissue of the flap was filled into the sinus tract and the wound was covered by the cutaneous tissue of the flap. Donor sites of the flap were pulled together and directly sutured. After surgery, hip movements were avoided and appropriately raised the affected limb, observed the survival of gracilis musculocutaneous flap as well as the healing of donor site. Scheduled postoperative follow-ups were conducted through the visits of outpatient clinic and interviews via WeChat or Internet hospital. Results:All the flaps survived. One flap had bleeding at the edge of flap within 24 hours after surgery and resulted in suture dehiscence. After bedside haemostasis, debridement and re-suture, it was healed. All donor sites achieved primary healing. All of the 10 patients were included in the postoperative follow-up for 6-21 months, with an average of 13 months. The flaps were in good colour and appearance, and the patients were satisfactory with the appearance. Scars were seen in the donor sites, but there was no obvious functional impairment. During the follow-up, no flap rupture occurred.Conclusion:The pedicled gracilis musculocutaneous flap is used to reconstruction of chronic inguinal sinus wounds, which can fully fill the sinus tract and simultaneously reconstruct the soft tissue defect of wound. This surgery is simple, practical and with good clinical efficacy.

Objective:To study the correlation between the time within the target range of blood glucose and the reduction of muscle mass in middle-aged and elderly patients with type 2 diabetes (T2DM).Methods:A total of 245 middle-aged and elderly T2DM patients admitted to the Second People′s Hospital of Hefei from December 2020 to December 2021 were selected. All enrolled patients wore MeiQi blood glucose monitor to obtain time in range (TIR), time above range (TAR), time below range (TBR), mean amplitude of glycemic excursions (MAGE), coefficient of variation (CV), blood glucose standard deviation (SD), largest amplitude of glycemic excursions (LAGE), which was for assessing blood sugar fluctuation. The incidence of muscle mass reduction and sarcopenia was statistically analyzed, and the differences invarious observation indicators between the muscle mass reduction group and the non muscle mass reduction group were compared. Spearman correlation analysis was used to investigate the correlation between clinical indicators and limb skeletal muscle mass index (ASMI), and logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of muscle mass reduction in middle-aged and elderly T2DM patients.Results:The prevalence of muscle mass loss in 245 T2DM patients was 25.71%(63/245), and the prevalence of sarcopenia was 13.06%(32/245). There were statistically significant differences in age, gender, body mass index (BMI), blood phosphorus, homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR), urine albumin creatine ratio (ACR), 25 hydroxyvitamin D, diabetes nephropathy (DN) patient proportion, ASMI, grip strength, and 5 sit up test times between the muscle mass reduction group and the non muscle mass reduction group (all P<0.05). The TIR of the muscle mass reduction group was lower than that of the non muscle mass reduction group, while the TAR and mean blood glucose (MG) were higher than those of the non muscle mass reduction group, with statistically significant differences (all P<0.05). ASMI was negatively correlated with age, males, and HOMA-IR (all P<0.05), but positively correlated with BMI and 25 hydroxyvitamin D (all P<0.05). ASMI was positively correlated with SD and TIR (mean P<0.05), and negatively correlated with CV, LAGE, TAR, and MG (all P<0.05). The results of univariate regression analysis showed that age, male gender, DN, and TAR were risk factors for muscle mass reduction, while BMI, 25 hydroxyvitamin D, and TIR were protective factors for muscle mass reduction (all P<0.05). After adjusting for other related factors, TIR remained a protective factor for decreased muscle mass (all P<0.05). Conclusions:TIR is an independent protective factor for muscle mass loss in middle-aged and elderly T2DM patients, and the incidence of muscle mass loss can be reduced by increasing TIR levels in clinical practice.

Objective:To explore the risk factors for the occurrence of preeclampsia (PE) and the predictive value of serum vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-1 (VEGFR-1) and placental growth factor (PLGF) for PE.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted to select 148 pregnant women who underwent prenatal examinations at the First People′s Hospital of Chenzhou from January 2020 to January 2022 and were ultimately diagnosed with PE as the PE group, and 148 healthy pregnant women who underwent prenatal examinations during the same period as the PE group were selected as the control group. The levels of VEGFR-1, PLGF, and VEGFR-1/PLGF were compared between two groups of pregnant women. Logistic regression analysis was performed on the risk factors for PE, and the correlation between VEGFR-1, PLGF, VEGFR-1/PLGF and risk factors was analyzed. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to analyze the predictive value of VEGFR-1, PLGF, and VEGFR-1/PLGF for PE and obtain cutoff values. The survival curve of pregnant women with PE was plotted based on the cutoff values.Results:The levels of VEGFR-1 and VEGFR-1/PLGF in the PE group were higher than those in the control group (all P<0.05), while the levels of PLGF were lower than those in the control group ( P<0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that age, body mass index (BMI), pregnancy induced hypertension, pregnancy induced diabetes, family history of hypertension, preeclampsia, VEGFR-1 and VEGFR-1/PLGF were risk factors for PE (all P<0.05), and PLGF was a protective factor for PE ( P<0.05). VEGFR-1, VEGFR-1/PLGF were positively correlated with age, BMI, pregnancy induced hypertension, pregnancy induced diabetes, hypertension family history, and PE (all P<0.001), while PLGF was negatively correlated with age, BMI, pregnancy induced hypertension, pregnancy induced diabetes, hypertension family history, and preeclampsia (all P<0.001). VEGFR-1, PLGF, and VEGFR-1/PLGF had higher predictive value for PE (AUC=0.773, 0.791, 0.825), with cutoff values of 9190.83 ng/L, 508.17 ng/L, and 21.64, respectively. According to the cutoff value, 296 pregnant women were divided into three groups: low, medium, and high risk. The survival analysis results showed that the probabilities of PE occurrence in the three groups were 1.36%, 18.97%, and 66.67%, respectively. Conclusions:VEGFR-1 and PLGF have high predictive value for PE, and clinical monitoring of VEGFR-1/PLGF levels combined with other examination methods can improve the accuracy of PE diagnosis and prediction, and improve pregnancy outcomes.

Background: Enteritis is one of the most frequently reported symptoms in piglets infected with porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2), but the immunopathogenesis has not been reported. Objectives: This study examined the effect of a PCV2 infection on the intestinal mucosal immune function through morphological observations and immune-related molecular detection. Methods: Morphological changes within the ileum of piglets during a PCV2 infection were observed. The expression of the related-molecules was analyzed using a gene chip. The immunocyte subsets were analyzed by flow cytometry. The secretory immunoglobulin A (SIgA) content was analyzed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Results: The PCV2 infection caused ileal villus damage, intestinal epithelial cells exfoliation, and an increase in lymphocytes in the lamina propria at 21 days post-infection.Differentially expressed genes occurred in the defense response, inflammatory response, and the complement and coagulation cascade reactions. Most of them were downregulated significantly at the induction site and upregulated at the effector site. The genes associated with SIgA production were downregulated significantly at the induction site. In contrast, the expression of the Toll-like receptor-related genes was upregulated significantly at the effector site. The frequencies of dendritic cells, B cells, and CD8 + T cells were upregulated at the 2 sites. The SIgA content decreased significantly in the ileal mucosa. Conclusions PCV2 infections can cause damage to the ileum that is associated with changes in immune-related gene expression, immune-related cell subsets, and SIgA production.These findings elucidated the molecular changes in the ileum after a PCV2 infection from the perspective of intestinal mucosal immunity, which provides insights into a further study for PCV2-induced enteritis.

Objective: To investigate the relationship between neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Methods: The clinical data of 117 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus from January 2016 to June 2017 in Anhui No.2 Provincial People′s Hospital were analyzed retrospectively. According to the eGFR level, the patients were divided into 3 groups: eGFR ≥ 90 ml/(min·1.73 m²) in 68 cases (DM0 group), eGFR 60 to 89 ml/(min·1.73 m²) in 33 cases (DM1 group), and eGFR<60 ml/(min·1.73 m²) in 16 cases (DM2 group). In addition, 30 healthy people in the same period were selected as control group (NC group), eGFR ≥ 90 ml/(min·1.73 m²). The systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, blood routine, glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA₁c), total cholesterol (TC), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), urea nitrogen, creatinine and uric acid were recorded; and the NLR was calculated. The influencing factors of eGFR in patients with type 2 diabetic mellitus were analyzed, and the relationship between NLR and eGFR was evaluated. Results: Compared with that in NC group and DM0 group, the eGFR in DM1 group and DM2 group was significantly lower: (75.12 ± 8.14) and (46.31 ± 13.25) ml/(min·1.73 m²) vs. (114.17 ± 12.21) and (113.21 ± 12.04) ml/(min·1.73 m²), the NLR was significantly higher: 2.50 ± 1.16 and 2.75 ± 1.39 vs. 1.53 ± 0.22 and 1.83 ± 0.65, and there were statistical differences (P<0.05). Compared with that in DM1 group, the eGFR in DM2 group was significantly lower, the NLR was significantly higher, and there were statistical differences (P<0.05). There were no statistical differences in NLR and eGFR between DM0 group and NC group (P>0.05). Correlation analysis result showed that NLR, age, course of disease, systolic blood pressure, TC, HDL-C, urea nitrogen, creatinine and uric acid were negatively correlated with eGFR (r=-0.415, -0.555, -0.491, -0.432, -0.259, -0.237, -0.584, -0.840 and -0.261; P < 0.05); gender, diastolic pressure, HbA₁c, TG and LDL-C were not correlated with eGFR (P > 0.05). Multiple linear regression analysis result showed that NLR, age, TC, creatinine and systolic blood pressure were independent risk factors of eGFR in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (P<0.01 or < 0.05). Conclusions There is a close relationship between the increase of NLR and the decrease of eGFR in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Monitoring NLR is helpful to understand the changes of eGFR in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.
