ObjectiveTo explore the clinical safety of Feilike Mixture （FLK） in the real world. MethodsThe safety of all children who received FLK from 29 institutions in 12 provinces between January 21，2021 and December 25，2021 was evaluated through prospective centralized surveillance and a nested case control study. ResultsA total of 3 035 juveniles were included. There were 29 research centers involved，which are distributed across 12 provinces，including one traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） hospital and 28 general hospitals. The average age among the juveniles was （4.77±3.56） years old，and the average weight was （21.81±12.97） kg. Among them，119 cases （3.92%） of juveniles had a history of allergies. Acute bronchitis was the main diagnosis for juveniles，with 1 656 cases （54.46%）. FLK was first used in 2 016 cases （66.43%），and 142 juvenile patients had special dosages，accounting for 4.68%. Among them，92 adverse drug reactions （ADRs） occurred，including 73 cases of gastrointestinal system disorders，10 cases of metabolic and nutritional disorders，eight cases of skin and subcutaneous tissue diseases，two cases of vascular and lymphatic disorders，and one case of systemic diseases and various reactions at the administration site. The manifestations of ADRs were mainly diarrhea，stool discoloration，and vomiting，and no serious ADRs occurred. The results of multi-factor analysis indicated that special dosages （the use of FLK）［odds ratio （OR） of 2.642， 95% confidence interval （CI） of 1.105-6.323］，combined administration： spleen aminopeptide （OR of 4.978， 95%CI of 1.200-20.655），and reason for combined administration： anti-infection （OR of 1.814， 95%CI of 1.071-3.075） were the risk factors for ADRs caused by FLK. Conclusion92 ADRs occurred among 3 035 juveniles using FLK. The incidence of ADRs caused by FLK was 3.03%，and the severity was mainly mild or moderate. Generally，the prognosis was favorable after symptomatic treatment such as drug withdrawal or dosage reduction，suggesting that FLK has good clinical safety.

OBJECTIVE To provide a reference for revising the safety content of traditional Chinese medicine（TCM） instructions. METHODS A systematic analysis was conducted on the relevant announcements on the revision of TCM instruction from 2013 to 2024， including the year of publication， drug name， drug formulation， announcement release time， and the average number of revisions made to three safety contents （contraindication， adverse drug reaction， and precaution）. According to the report data of national adverse drug reaction monitoring from 2013 to 2024， analyze the proportion of TCM in all adverse drug reactions， the composition ratio of adverse drug reaction of different dosage forms of drugs [TCM injection， oral TCM， other （topical） TCM]. RESULTS From 2013 to 2024， the National Medical Products Administration issued a total of 101 notices on the revision of TCM instruction， involving 241 types of TCM. Among them， there were 163 types of oral TCM， 25 types of TCM injection， and 53 types of other （topical） TCM. There were 3， 10 and 0 types of TCM injection， oral TCM， and other （topical） TCM with missing safety content， respectively. The main source of adverse drug reaction data for TCM injections was post- marketing monitoring data （accounting for 48.00%）； the main source of adverse drug reaction data for oral TCM was monitoring data （accounting for 71.17%）； 73.58% of other （topical） TCM did not mention the source of adverse drug reaction data. The report on national adverse drug reaction monitoring showed that the proportion of all adverse drug reactions of TCM had decreased from 17.3% in 2013 to 12.1% in 2024. Among them， the proportion of adverse drug reaction of TCM injection in the three dosage forms of TCM had decreased from 61.3% in 2015 to 24.6% in 2024， while the proportion of adverse drug reaction of oral TCM in the three dosage forms of TCM had increased from 34.7% in 2015 to 64.0% in 2024. CONCLUSIONS The risk management of TCM safety content has achieved results in China， but still faces three major challenges： strongdependence on passive monitoring， insufficient data traceability， and missing key content. It is urgent to improve safety content by dosage form， optimize data sources， and fully utilize real-world evidence to supplement safety content.

Objective: To identify the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of docetaxel combined with a fixed dose of cisplatin (75 mg/m 2 ) delivered as hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) in patients with ovarian cancer. Methods: In this phase I trial, a time-to-event Bayesian optimal interval design was used.Docetaxel was given at a starting dose of 60 mg/m2 and was increased in 5 mg/m2 increments until the MTD was determined or the maximum dose level of 75 mg/m2 was reached. The doselimiting toxicity (DLT) rate was set at 25%, with a total sample size of 30 patients. HIPEC was delivered immediately following debulking surgery at a target temperature of 43°C for 90 minutes. Results: From August 2022 to November 2022, 30 patients were enrolled. Among the patients who received a dose of docetaxel ≤65 mg/m2 , no DLT was reported. DLTs were observed in one patient who received 70 mg/m2 docetaxel (grade 3 anaemia) and in three patients who received 75 mg/m2 docetaxel (one case of grade 3 anaemia, one case of grade 3 hepatic impairment and one case of grade 4 thrombocytopenia). Patients treated with docetaxel 75 mg/m2 in combination with cisplatin 75 mg/m2 had an estimated DLT rate of 25%, which was the closest to the target DLT rate and was therefore chosen as the MTD. Conclusion Docetaxel, in combination with a fixed dose of cisplatin (75 mg/m2), can be used safely at intraperitoneal doses of 75 mg/m2 in ovarian cancer patients who received HIPEC (43°C, 90 minutes) following debulking surgery.

Objective:To explore effect of miR-125a-3p on skin injury and inflammatory response in psoriasis rats and its mechanism.Methods:SD rats were randomly divided into control group,psoriasis group,miR-NC group and miR-125a-3p group.Psoriasis Area and Severity Index(PASI)score and Baker score were measured on rats;levels of IL-6,IL-1β and TNF-α in rat skin tissue were detected by ELISA;qRT-PCR was used to detect miR-125a-3p expression;mRNA and protein expressions of forkhead box protein M1(FOXM1)in rat skin tissue were detected by qRT-PCR and Western blot.Keratinocytes from psoriasis rats were isolated and cultured,targeting relationship between miR-125a-3p and FOXM1 was verified by dual-luciferase reporter gene assay.Inhibiting or overexpressing miR-125a-3p and FOXM1 was overexpressed on basis of overexpressing miR-125a-3p,respectively.miR-125a-3p,FOXM1 mRNA and protein expressions in cells and IL-6,IL-1β,TNF-α levels in cell culture supernatants were detected,CCK-8 method was applied to detect cell viability,and flow cytometry was used to detect apoptosis rate.Results:Compared with control group,miR-125a-3p expression in skin tissue of rats in psoriasis group was decreased,PASI score,Baker score,IL-6,IL-1β,TNF-α levels,and FOXM1 mRNA and protein expressions were increased(P<0.05);compared with psoriasis group and miR-NC group,expression of miR-125a-3p in skin tissue of rats in miR-125a-3p group was increased,PASI score,Baker score,IL-6,IL-1β,TNF-α levels,and expressions of FOXM1 mRNA and protein were decreased(P<0.05).There was a targeting relationship between miR-125a-3p and FOXM1.After inhibiting miR-125a-3p expression,FOXM1 mRNA and protein expressions in cells,cell viability and IL-6,IL-1β,TNF-α levels in cell culture supernatant were increased,and apoptosis rate was decreased(P<0.05),while overexpression of miR-125a-3p had opposite effect.Overexpression of FOXM1 attenuated effects of overexpression of miR-125a-3p on cell viability,apopto-sis rate and inflammatory response.Conclusion:miR-125a-3p is lowly expressed in skin lesions of psoriasis rats,whose overexpression may inhibit proliferation of keratinocytes and promote apoptosis by targeting FOXM1,improve skin injury and reduce inflammatory response in psoriasis rats.

Hyperlipidemia is characterized by elevated levels of blood lipids. The clinical manifestations are mainly atherosclerosis caused by the deposition of lipids in the vascular endothelium. The link between abnormal lipid metabolism and sudden hearing loss remains unclear. This article presents a case study of sudden hearing loss accompanied by familial hyperlipidemia. Pure tone audiometry indicated intermediate frequency hearing loss in one ear. Laboratory tests showed abnormal lipid metabolism, and genetic examination identified a heterozygous mutation in theAPOA5 gene. Diagnosis: Sudden hearing loss; hypercholesterolemia. The patient responded well to pharmacological treatment. This paper aims to analyze and discuss thepotential connection between abnormal lipid metabolism and sudden hearing loss.

Objective:To explore the mechanism of herb-partitioned moxibustion in relieving rat intestinal inflammation by focusing on the neutrophil extracellular traps(NETs)in Crohn disease(CD)development. Methods:Rats were randomly divided into a normal group,a model group,a herb-partitioned moxibustion group,and a mesalazine group.The CD rat model was prepared with 2,4,6-trinitrobenzene sulfonic acid except for rats in the normal group.Rats in the normal group and model group did not receive any treatment but had the same fixation as the other groups.Rats in the herb-partitioned moxibustion group received herb-partitioned moxibustion at Qihai(CV6)and bilateral Tianshu(ST25).Rats in the mesalazine group received intragastric administration of mesalazine enteric-coated tablets.The general situation of rats in each group was recorded,and the histopathological changes in the colon were observed and scored by hematoxylin-eosin staining.The serum concentrations of NETs DNA(NETs-DNA),neutrophil elastase(NE)-DNA,and myeloperoxidase(MPO)-DNA were detected by ABC enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay,and the citrullinated histone 3(citH3),MPO,and NE protein and mRNA expression levels in rat colon tissue were observed by immunofluorescence and real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction. Results:Compared with the normal group,the mucosal ulcer reached the muscularis,the epithelium was incomplete,the goblet cells decreased obviously with significant inflammatory cell infiltration in the colon;the colonic mucosa damage index(CMDI)score increased significantly(P<0.01);the serum NETs-DNA,NE-DNA,and MPO-DNA concentrations increased(P<0.05);the NE,citH3,and MPO protein and mRNA expression in the colonic tissue increased significantly in the model group(P<0.01 or P<0.05).Compared with the model group,the mucosal epithelium in the herb-partitioned moxibustion group and the mesalazine group was repaired and the goblet cells increased with a few infiltrating inflammatory cells in the colon;the CMDI score decreased(P<0.01);the serum NETs-DNA,NE-DNA,and MPO-DNA concentrations decreased(P<0.05);the NE,citH3,and MPO protein and mRNA expression in the colonic tissue was down-regulated(P<0.01 or P<0.05). Conclusion:Herb-partitioned moxibustion reduced the serum NETs complex and inhibited the protein and mRNA expression of NETs complex in the colon tissue,which may be one mechanism of herb-partitioned moxibustion in relieving colon mucosal inflammation in CD.

Objective To investigate the clinical characteristics and prognosis of pneumococcal meningitis(PM),and drug sensitivity of Streptococcus pneumoniae(SP)isolates in Chinese children.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on clinical information,laboratory data,and microbiological data of 160 hospitalized children under 15 years old with PM from January 2019 to December 2020 in 33 tertiary hospitals across the country.Results Among the 160 children with PM,there were 103 males and 57 females.The age ranged from 15 days to 15 years,with 109 cases(68.1% )aged 3 months to under 3 years.SP strains were isolated from 95 cases(59.4% )in cerebrospinal fluid cultures and from 57 cases(35.6% )in blood cultures.The positive rates of SP detection by cerebrospinal fluid metagenomic next-generation sequencing and cerebrospinal fluid SP antigen testing were 40% (35/87)and 27% (21/78),respectively.Fifty-five cases(34.4% )had one or more risk factors for purulent meningitis,113 cases(70.6% )had one or more extra-cranial infectious foci,and 18 cases(11.3% )had underlying diseases.The most common clinical symptoms were fever(147 cases,91.9% ),followed by lethargy(98 cases,61.3% )and vomiting(61 cases,38.1% ).Sixty-nine cases(43.1% )experienced intracranial complications during hospitalization,with subdural effusion and/or empyema being the most common complication[43 cases(26.9% )],followed by hydrocephalus in 24 cases(15.0% ),brain abscess in 23 cases(14.4% ),and cerebral hemorrhage in 8 cases(5.0% ).Subdural effusion and/or empyema and hydrocephalus mainly occurred in children under 1 year old,with rates of 91% (39/43)and 83% (20/24),respectively.SP strains exhibited complete sensitivity to vancomycin(100% ,75/75),linezolid(100% ,56/56),and meropenem(100% ,6/6).High sensitivity rates were also observed for levofloxacin(81% ,22/27),moxifloxacin(82% ,14/17),rifampicin(96% ,25/26),and chloramphenicol(91% ,21/23).However,low sensitivity rates were found for penicillin(16% ,11/68)and clindamycin(6% ,1/17),and SP strains were completely resistant to erythromycin(100% ,31/31).The rates of discharge with cure and improvement were 22.5% (36/160)and 66.2% (106/160),respectively,while 18 cases(11.3% )had adverse outcomes.Conclusions Pediatric PM is more common in children aged 3 months to under 3 years.Intracranial complications are more frequently observed in children under 1 year old.Fever is the most common clinical manifestation of PM,and subdural effusion/emphysema and hydrocephalus are the most frequent complications.Non-culture detection methods for cerebrospinal fluid can improve pathogen detection rates.Adverse outcomes can be noted in more than 10% of PM cases.SP strains are high sensitivity to vancomycin,linezolid,meropenem,levofloxacin,moxifloxacin,rifampicin,and chloramphenicol.[Chinese Journal of Contemporary Pediatrics,2024,26(2):131-138]

Objective:To investigate the protective effect and possible mechanism of sulforaphane (SFN) on acute liver injury in mice induced by diquat (DQ) poisoning.Methods:Forty-eight male C57BL/6 mice were divided into Control group, DQ model group (DQ group), SFN intervention group (DQ+SFN group), and SFN control group (SFN group) using a random number table method, with 12 mice in each group. Acute liver injury mice model was established by one-time intraperitoneal injection of 1 mL of 40 mg/kg DQ solution at once. SFN group was injected with 1 mL of ddH 2O. After 4 hours of molding, 0.5 mL of 5 mg/kg SFN solution was injected into the peritoneal cavity of the DQ+SFN group and SFN group, once daily for 7 consecutive days. DQ group and Control group were injected with an equal amount of ddH 2O. Then, the mice were euthanized to collect liver tissue and blood samples, and the levels of plasma biomarkers alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST), as well as oxidative stress indicators such as superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione (GSH), and malondialdehyde (MDA) in liver tissue were measured. The changes of liver structure were observed under transmission electron microscopy. The apoptosis and reactive oxygen species (ROS) level in liver tissue were observed under fluorescence microscope. Western blotting was used to detect the protein expressions of nuclear factor E2-related factor 2 (Nrf2), hemeoxygenase-1 (HO-1), Kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1 (Keap1), and cleaved caspase-9 in liver tissue. Results:Compared with the Control group, the liver mitochondria in the DQ group showed severe swelling, partial dissolution of the matrix, and cristae rupture and loss; the levels of plasma AST and ALT significantly increased, the MDA content in the liver increased, the activities of SOD and GSH decreased, the level of ROS significantly increased, the number of apoptotic cells in the liver significantly increased, the protein expressions of Nrf2 and HO-1 significantly decreased, and the protein expressions of Keap1 and cleaved caspase-9 significantly increased. Compared with the DQ group, the mitochondrial damage in the DQ+SFN group was reduced, the levels of plasma AST and ALT were significantly reduced [ALT (U/L): 58.22±4.39 vs. 79.94±3.32, AST (U/L): 177.64±8.40 vs. 219.62±11.60, both P < 0.01], the liver MDA content decreased, and the activities of SOD and GSH increased [MDA (μmol/g: 5.63±0.18 vs. 5.96±0.29, SOD (kU/g): 102.05±4.01 vs. 84.34±5.34, GSH (mmol/g): 16.32±1.40 vs. 13.12±1.84, all P < 0.05], the production of ROS in liver tissue was significantly reduced [ROS (fluorescence intensity): 115.90±10.89 vs. 190.70±10.16, P < 0.05], and apoptotic cells were significantly reduced (cell apoptosis index: 4.39±1.00 vs. 10.71±0.56, P < 0.01), the protein expressions of Nrf2 and HO-1 were significantly increased, while the protein expressions of Keap1 and cleaved caspase-9 were significantly decreased (Nrf2/β-actin: 1.15±0.04 vs. 0.93±0.05, HO-1/β-actin: 1.75±0.12 vs. 0.78±0.04, Keap1/β-actin: 1.00±0.14 vs. 1.28±0.13, cleaved caspase-9/β-actin: 1.31±0.12 vs. 1.81±0.09, all P < 0.05). However, there was no statistically significant difference in various indicators between the SFN group and the Control group. Conclusion:SFN can activate the Keap1/Nrf2 signaling pathway to alleviate DQ induced acute liver injury in mice.

Aim To explore the effect of total fla-vonoids of Rhodiola japonica(TFR)on vascular forma-tion in rat cerebral vascular endothelial cells in vitro and its relationship with VEGFR2 and neurogenic hy-drogen sulfide(H2 S).Methods Using rat cerebral vascular endothelial cells cultured separately and co cultured with hippocampal neurons,different experi-mental methods were used to detect cell proliferation,migration,tube formation,H2S content,and calcium fluorescence intensity,including CCK8 method,cell scratch method,Transwell method,matrix gel tube for-mation,H2 S reagent kit,and calcium fluorescence probe method.Results In isolated cultured rat brain microvascular endothelial cells,H2S donor NaHS(200μmol·L-1)and TFR(90,270,810 mg·L-1)could significantly promote the proliferation,migration area and the number of migrating cells of primary rat brain microvascular endothelial cells,as well as the forma-tion of blood vessels and[Ca2+]i,while VEGFR2 blocker SU5416(10 μmol·L-1)could inhibit the promotion of endothelial cell proliferation,migration and vascular formation by TFR;TFR significantly in-creased H2S content in co-cultured rat brain microvas-cular endothelial cells with hippocampal neurons,and was inhibited by CBS inhibitor AOAA(200 μmol· L-1).At the same time,TFR significantly promotes the formation of vascular effects in co-cultured rat cere-bral vascular endothelial cells,and could be signifi-cantly inhibited by AOAA and VEGFR2 blocker SU5416.Conclusions TFR can promote the forma-tion of blood vessels in cerebral vascular endothelial cells by increasing[Ca2+]i of VEGFR2 in vitro,and can promote angiogenesis by inducing CBS generation of H2S in neurons and acting on VEGFR2 in rat brain microvascular endothelial cells.

Objective:To investigate the prevalence of hyperuricemia (HUA) in Bozidun Kirghiz township of Xinjiang Aksu region, and to explore the risk factors for the occurrence of HUA in the local area.Methods:A cross-sectional survey study was conducted by randomly selecting 9 villages in Bozidun Kirgiz Township by the whole-group sampling method and questionnaire were distributed to the households. The questionnaire included: demographic information, history of past illness, personal history, and all subjects were measured for height, weight, blood pressure, abdominal circumference, etc. The diagnostic of HUA if the serum uric acid (SUA) level >420 μmol/L in men or >360 μmol/L in women. The incidences of HUA in different age, sex, food type and life style behavior were analyzed. T test, non-parametric test and Chi-square test were used to analyze the differences among the groups, and logistic regression was used to analyze the risk factors. Results:①A total of 2 138 subjects were surveyed, among which 68 patients were with HUA, the prevalence of HUA in Bozidun Kirghiz township, Aksu region in the general population was 3.18%(68/2 138); the prevalence rate in men was 4.60%(45/978), 45 patients were identified; and the prevalence rate in women was 1.98%(23/1 160), 23 patients were identified. The peak age of HUA in male and female patients was 51~60 years old. ②The prevalence of HUA was lower in those who consumed dairy products ( χ2=6.91, P=0.017), nuts ( χ2=8.43, P=0.038) and eggs ( χ2=7.38, P=0.023), and lower in those who consumed more. Different intake of cereals ( χ2=0.87, P=0.647), meat( χ2=0.82, P=0.662), vegetables and fruits( χ2=5.22, P=0.073) had no effect on the prevalence of HUA.③In terms of different life behaviors, the prevalence of HUA in men who had been smoking was higher than those who had never smoked (57.78%, 28.89%, 13.33%, χ2=8.16, P=0.017). In the relationship between drinking and HUA, the prevalence rates of male always drinking, ever drinking and never drinking were 80.00%, 11.11% and 3.89%, respectively, the difference was statistically significant ( χ2=6.67, P=0.038). ④Multi-factor logistic regression analysis showed that high BMI, old age, high TG, increased Cr and increased WBC were risk factors for the occurrence of HUA [ OR(95% CI)=1.13(1.04, 1.23), 1.03(1.00,1.05),1.39(1.00, 1.93), 1.03(1.02, 1.05), 1.27(1.07, 1.49), all P<0.05]. Conclusion:The prevalence of HUA in Bozidun Kirgiz township in Aksu prefecture of Xinjiang is lower than that in other areas with continental climate. High BMI, old age, high TG, increased Cr and increased WBC count are risk factors for the development of HUA .
