The study aimed to analyze the efficacy and safety of rituximab in the treatment of 23 cases of lupus nephritis and explore the prospect of half-dose rituximab in lupus nephritis treatment. Twenty-three patients with lupus nephritis hospitalized in the Department of Rheumatology and Immunology at the First Medical Center of the PLA General Hospital from May 2013 to December 2021 were selected. Eighteen patients received rituximab 375 mg/m 2 on the first and 14th days, 5 patients received 500 mg of rituximab on the first and 14th days, and rituximab was used as needed 6 months later. Methylprednisolone (80-120 mg) was given together with rituximab. Afterward, 1 mg/kg prednisone was used for 4 weeks, which was progressively tapered to maintenance doses or discontinued. B lymphocyte level, renal function, 24-h urine protein level, and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) disease activity index 2000 (SLEDAI2K) score before and after treatment were recorded. The efficacy and adverse reactions were analyzed. The results showed that 11 patients suffered from renal insufficiency [creatinine (162.7±58.6) μmol/L ] at baseline, while the creatinine level of 9 patients returned to normal 12 months after the treatment [ (66.3±10.1)μmol/L ]. Normal renal function of the other 12 patients was maintained during treatment. After 12 months, the 24-h urine protein level decreased from 4.00 (2.00,6.80) g in the baseline period to 0.10 (0.08,0.40) g. SLEDAI2K score decreased from 22 (18,26) in the baseline period to 3 (0,6) 12 months after the treatment. The B lymphocyte level reached 0.00 (0.00,0.01)% at 3 months. Of 23 patients, 13 patients achieved complete remission, and 7 patients achieved partial remission after 6 months of rituximab treatment. Five patients experienced adverse reactions related to rituximab, including 1 case of transfusion reaction, 1 case of perioral herpes with pulmonary infection, and 3 cases of decreased IgG levels. Therefore, rituximab regimen used in this study can be an effective treatment strategy for lupus nephritis.

Objective:To investigate the level and the influencing factors of blood uric acid in monks and nuns in Wutai Mountain area, and to explore the relationship between blood uric acid level and BMI and blood lipids levels.Methods:Physical examinations and laboratory tests were performed on monks and nuns in Wutai Mountain area. There were 207 males and 261 females. Physical examination includes height, weight, blood pressure, blood uric acid, blood lipid, blood glucose and other indicators. The blood uric acid level was measured using the uricase method. Chi-square test for trend, and t test were utilized for statistical analysis. Results:The average blood uric acid level of the monk and the nun was (372±6) μmol/L and (290±4) μmol/L, respectively. Obviously, the average blood uric acid level of the monk was significantly higher than it in the nun ( t=11.636, P<0.01). The total incidence rate of hyperuricemia, which was diagnosed when the blood uric acid level was higher than 420 μmol/L in males and the blood uric acid level was higher than 360 μmol/L in females. In particular, the incidence rate of hyperuricemia was much higher in the monk (24.3%, 50/207) than in the nuns (13.4%, 35/261) ( χ2=8.966, P<0.01) . Analysis by age, the prevalence of hyperuricemia in men was 20.3%(42/207) before the age of 50, which was higher than that after the age of 50 (3.9%, 8/207) ( χ2=26.3, P< 0.01); The prevalence of hyperuricemia in women before the age of 50 was 2.7%(7/261), which was lower than that after the age of 50 (10.7%, 28/261) ( χ2=13.51, P<0.01). The uric acid level of men and women between 50-60 years old, showed the opposite trend. The level of uric acid in men decreased and increased in women. In addition, the prevalence of triglyceride abnormalities and overweight was more significantly in monks and nuns with high uric acid than those with the normal uric acid level [71.8%(61/85) vs 45.2%(173/383), χ2=19.68, P<0.01; 54.1%(46/85) vs 19.8%(76/383), χ2=42.4, P<0.01]; while no significant difference of total cholesterol and blood glucose levels was observed between these two groups. Conclusion:There are differences in blood uric acid levels among Wutai Mountain area monks and nuns of different ages and genders. The level of blood uric acid in male is significantly higher than that in female. Lipid metabolism and over weight are closely related to elevated level of the uric acid, which might be the risk factors of uric acid abnormality in Wutai Mountain population.

Objective:To investigate the etiology, prognosis and prognostic factors of pediatric acute liver failure(PALF), in order to provide the basis for clinical treatment of PALF.Methods:The clinical data of children with PALF hospitalized at Hunan Children′s Hospital from May 2008 to May 2018 were collected, and the causes and prognosis were analyzed.According to the prognosis, the patients were divided into the death group and the survival group, whose biochemical indexes were then compared.After that, the statistical analysis of different data were carried out by using t-test, Wilcoxon test and χ2 test separately. Results:In 120 PALF cases, there were 68 males and 52 females, and there were 36 infants, 34 toddlers, 22 preschoolers and 28 school-age children.Twenty cases (16.7%) were caused by sepsis, 19 cases (15.8%) by genetic metabolic diseases, 18 cases (15.0%) by poisoning, 12 cases (10.0%) by viral infection, 6 cases (5.0%) by drugs, 1 case (0.8%) by bile polyp, and 1 case (0.8%) by tumor disease.Besides, the etiology of 43 cases (35.9%) was unknown.Among the cases with known etiologies, genetic metabolic and infectious diseases were the main cause of disease in infants, toddler patients were mostly caused by infectious diseases and drug/toxicants, and drug/toxicants and hereditary metabolic diseases were the dominant cause of disease in school-age children and preschoolers.Mortality rate of children with PALF was 50.0%.Among them, the mortality of Epstein-Barr virus-associated hemophagocytic syndrome, sepsis, Citrin deficiency and Tyrosinemia was higher than that of other diseases.Compared with the survival group, the total bilirubin (TB)[159.00(73.05, 274.00) μmol/L vs.62.75(2.65, 221.75)μmol/L], direct bilirubin(DB)[83.00(41.43, 160.00) μmol/L vs.38.74(10.98, 128.75) μmol/L], prothrombin time (PT)[39.60(24.93, 62.60) s vs.24.65(21.43, 29.83) s], international standardized ratio (INR)[3.40(2.30, 6.74) vs.2.09(1.85, 2.84)], and blood ammonia (NH 3) levels [109.50(85.25, 149.75) μmol/L vs.80.00(60.25, 102.75) μmol/L] in the death group were significantly increased, and the diffe-rences were statistically significant(all P<0.05); while the levels of albumin[(28.72±5.88) g/L vs.(33.69±4.96) g/L], alanine aminotransferase (ALT) [586.50(223.25, 1 082.00) U/L vs.1 434.00(615.00, 3 334.50) U/L]and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) [827.50(545.00, 2 024.00) U/L vs.1 663.50(821.00, 4 886.75) U/L]in the death group were significantly decreased, and the differences were statistically significant(all P<0.05). However, the blood glucose and cholesterol levels in both groups had no statistically significant difference. Conclusion:The mortality of children with PALF is high, and different age groups have different etiologies.The increase of TB, DB, PT, INR, NH3 and the ratio of hepatic encephalopathy, and the decrease of albumin, AST and ALT suggest poor prognosis.

Anti-tumor activity screening and research on the primary mechanism of dicumarol in vitro / 药学学报

To study the anti-tumor activities and the related mechanisms of dicumarol, the CCK-8 method was used to identify anti-tumor activities of dicumarol. HepG2 cells were used to explore the anti-tumor mechanisms by measuring several physiological and biochemical indexes. The results show that dicumarol can significantly inhibit the growth of HepG2, Hccc-9810 and MDA-MB-231 cell lines in a dose-dependent and time-dependent manner, with HepG2 cells showing the greatest sensitivity to dicumarol (with an IC50 value of 3.19 ± 0.68 µmol·L-1 at 48 h). Dicumarol arrested the cell cycle at S phase and down-regulated the expression of anti-apoptotic protein Bcl-2 while promoting the expression of the pro-apoptotic proteins Bax and cleaved caspase-9. Dicumarol significantly decreased the levels of glutathione (GSH) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) in HepG2 cells, and increased the levels of malonaldehyde (MDA) and reactive oxygen species (ROS). Dicumarol also down-regulated the protein levels of NAD(P)H quinone oxidoreductase 1, 3-phosphoinositide-dependent protein kinase 1, and hypoxia inducible factor-1α under hypoxic conditions. The above results show that dicumarol can inhibit the proliferation of HepG2 cells and induce cycle arrest and apoptosis. Dicumarol may down-regulate the expression of HIF-1α by inhibiting the activity of NQO1 and PDK1, which leads to the accumulation of ROS, thereby generating oxidative stress and inducing apoptosis in HepG2 cells.

Effects of different postoperative analgesic strategies on postoperative neurocognitive function and quality of recovery in elderly patients undergoing one lung ventilation / 南方医科大学学报

OBJECTIVE@#To evaluate the effects of different postoperative analgesic strategies on neurocognitive function and quality of recovery in elderly patients at 7 days after thoracic surgery with one lung ventilation.@*METHODS@#Ninety elderly patients undergoing video-assisted thoracic surgery were randomized into 3 groups (@*RESULTS@#The patients in TA and EA groups had significantly higher MMSE scores and lower incidence of postoperative neurocognitive dysfunction (PNCD) than those in GA group without significant difference between the former two groups. At 7 days after the surgery, serum levels of S100-β and MMP-9 were significantly higher in GA group than in TA and EA group, and did not differ significantly between the latter two groups. QoR-40 scores were significantly higher in TA and EA groups than in GA group, and were higher in TA group than in EA group. The chest intubation time and length of hospital stay were significantly shorter in TA and EA groups than in GA group.@*CONCLUSIONS@#In elderly patients undergoing surgeries with one lung ventilation, general anesthesia combined with either postoperative continuous thoracic paravertebral block or epidural analgesia can significantly improve postoperative neurocognitive function and quality of recovery, but continuous thoracic paravertebral block analgesia can be more advantageous for improving postoperative quality of recovery.

Clinical value of sequential organ failure assessment score in evaluating organ function in acute pancreatitis / 中华消化杂志

Objective:To compare the clinical value of sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) score and revised Marshall score in evaluating organ function in acute pancreatitis (AP).Methods:From January 2013 to December 2017, at the Department of Gastroenterology of The First Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University, the clinical data of 3 957 hospitalized AP patients were collected through the AP electronic database. AP was diagnosed and the severity of the disease was classified according to the revised Atlanta classification criteria. Organ function was evaluated by modified Marshall score and SOFA score. The correlation between SOFA score and mortality, pancreatic necrosis were analyzed. Chi-square test and Spearman correlation analysis were performed for statistical analysis.Results:The incidences of circulatory failure and renal failure determined by the SOFA score were higher than those of the modified Marshall score (4.80%, 190/3 957 vs. 3.03%, 120/3 957; 10.11%, 400/3 957 vs. 6.44%, 255/3 957), and the differences were statistically significant ( χ2=1 599.54 and 2 237.19, both P<0.01). Two score systems were consistent in determining the incidence of respiratory failure, which were 32.22% (1 275/3 957). The incidences of persistent circulatory failure (≥48 h) and persistent renal failure (≥48 h) determined by the SOFA score were higher than those of the modified Marshall score (1.64%, 65/3 957 vs. 0.76%, 30/3 957; 4.78%, 189/3 957 vs. 3.69%, 146/3 957), and the differences were statistically significant ( χ2=1 458.37 and 2 398.01, both P<0.01). The incidence of persistent respiratory failure (≥48 h) was same determined by two score systems, which were 10.24% (405/3 957). The proportion of patients with severe AP determined by SOFA score was higher than that of the modified Marshall score (25.30%, 1 001/3 957 vs. 18.83%, 745/3 957), and the difference was statistically significant ( χ2=718.216, P<0.01). The results of Spearman correlation analysis showed that SOFA total score was positively correlated with the overall mortality and the incidence of pancreatic necrosis (correlation coefficients r were 0.540 and 0.211, respectively), and the differences were statistically significant (both P<0.01). Conclusion:SOFA score can comprehensively evaluate organ function in AP and is an important approach in determining prognosis.

Synthesis of transdermal aloesin loaded zinc oxide nanoparticles and its inhibitory effect on the activity of tyrosinase / 生物医学工程学杂志

Zinc oxide quantum dots (ZnO QDs) were synthesized by gel-sol method and employed as the transdermal aloesin (Alo) carriers. ZnO QDs were surface-functionalized with amino using aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES). Alo was covalently bonded on the surface of ZnO QDs via N,N'-carbonyldiimidazole to obtain Alo NPs, which were characterized by transmission electron microscope (TEM), dynamic light scattering (DLS), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and thermal gravimetric analyzer (TGA). TEM images showed that ZnO QDs were analogously sphere and monodisperse with a reasonably narrow size distribution, of which was around 4 nm. The size of Alo NPs increased to around 8 nm due to the surface modification. The intense bands at around 3 400 cm and 1 200 cm in the FTIR spectrum of Alo NPs from the vibration of -OH indicated the linkage of Alo on the surface of ZnO QDs. The results of TGA analysis showed that the mass ratio of ZnO QDs and Alo were 39.27% and 35.14%, respectively. The penetration of Alo NPs was much higher than raw Alo according to the passive penetration experiments with Franz-type diffusion cells instrument using full-thickness cavy skin, which manifested the improvement of the penetration for Alo delivered by ZnO QDs. The pH-controlled drug release behavior was investigated. At pH 7.4, only a small amount of Alo (1.45% ± 0.21%) had been released after 2 h. In contrast, as incubation at pH 5.0 of which pH was similar to endosomal environment, Alo was released very fast (87.63% ± 0.46% in 2 h) from Alo NPs, confirming that Alo NPs could response to the pH and realize the intracellular drug release. The inhibitory effect of Alo NPs on tyrosinase was in a dose dependent manner. When the concentration of Alo NPs was 12.5 μg/mL, the inhibition rate was up to 40.32% ± 1.57%. All the results show that the Alo NPs hold a great potential in transdermal tyrosinase inhibition.

Comparison of APACHEⅡ, Ranson, BISAP and CTSI scores in early prediction of the severity of acute pancreatitis based on large sample database / 中华胰腺病杂志

Objective To clarify the accuracy of APACHEⅡ, Ranson, BISAP and CTSI scoring systems for predicting the progression of mild acute pancreatitis ( MAP ) to moderate acute pancreatitis ( MSAP) and severe acute pancreatitis ( SAP ) , and death risk of patients with acute pancreatitis ( AP ) . Methods All data from 2080 consecutive adult patients who were admitted within 3 days of disease onset were selected from AP database between 2014 and 2017. The severity was classified according to the revised Atlanta classification systems. Patients who died during hospitalization or discharged automatically were defined as patients at risk of death. The predictive accuracies for MSAP, SAP and death risk were compared using receiver operating characteristic ( ROC) curves. Results The 2080 patients with AP were divided into MAP (n=857, 41. 2％), MSAP ( n =892, 42. 9％), and SAP ( n =331, 15. 9％) according to the revised Atlanta classification system. ROC curve analysis showed APACHEⅡ score, Ranson score, BISAP score and the CT severity index ( CTSI) had no predictive value for MSAP, but have predictive value for SAP and death risk. APACHEⅡ score had the highest accuracy in predicting SAP with area under the curve ( AUC) values of 0. 785 and 0. 746 on the 1st and 2nd day after admission, respectively, and the APACHEⅡscore on admission day 1 had the highest accuracy in predicting death risk (AUC =0. 845). Conclusions Various scoring systems had predictive value only for SAP and death risk, and APACHEⅡ score had the highese accuracy in predicting SAP and death risk.
