Background: Cervical cancer (CC) is one of the most deadly cancers in women, its current treatments still result in poor outcomes and developing the novel targets and therapeutic strategies are urgently needed. Qiu's Cervical Prescription (QCP) is one of the traditional Chinese medicines used in the treatment of cervical cancer in China. Although its curative effect is remarkable, the internal mechanism of its treatment is still poorly understood.

Severe glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency can lead to reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate oxidase activity in phagocytes, resulting in immunodeficiency, with a limited number of reported cases. Here, we aimed to report a child with severe G6PD deficiency in China and investigate the mechanism of his recurrent infections. The clinical manifestations and immunological phenotypes of this patient were retrospectively collected.

Background: Fever of unknown origin (FUO) has been difficult to diagnose in pediatric clinical practice. With the gradual change in the disease spectrum, genetic factors have received increasing attention. Limited studies have shown an association between FUO and chromosomal abnormalities.

Purpose: We aimed to report the clinical and immunological characteristics of variant type X91 chronic granulomatous disease (CGD) in a Chinese cohort.

Methods: The clinical manifestations and immunological phenotypes of patients with X91 CGD were collected. A dihydrorhodamine (DHR) analysis was performed to evaluate neutrophil function.

Background: Loss-of-function (LOF) mutations in signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) is one of the causes of STAT3 hyperimmunoglobulin E (IgE) syndrome (STAT3-HIES), while gain-of-function (GOF) mutations in STAT3 lead to immune dysregulation diseases. We retrospectively analyzed the age, common clinical symptoms, immunologic and molecular manifestations in 11 patients with LOF STAT3 mutations and 1 patient with a GOF STAT3 mutation.

Methods: Twelve patients were enrolled in our study.

Purpose: We sought to further investigate the efficacy and safety of pioglitazone for chronic granulomatous disease (CGD) patients with severe infection.

Methods: CGD patients with severe infection were enrolled and treated with pioglitazone for 90 days. The degree of improvement in infection and the changes of dihydrorhodamine-123 (DHR) were used to evaluate the efficacy of pioglitazone.

Article Synopsis
  • This study focuses on the long-term management and prognosis of Mendelian susceptibility to mycobacterial disease (MSMD) in China, which had not been reported before.* -
  • A cohort of 324 patients with BCG infection was analyzed, with 30 diagnosed with MSMD, showcasing various genetic mutations and the involvement of multiple organs in infections.* -
  • Key findings reveal that flow cytometry can rapidly diagnose MSMD, and treatment with rhIFN-γ significantly benefits patients, especially those with IL12RB1 deficiencies, contributing to a better prognosis.*

Purpose: We aimed to report the characteristics of leukocyte adhesion deficiency-I (LAD-I) and four novel mutations in the ITGB2 gene in a Chinese cohort.

Methods: Seven patients with LAD-I were reported in our study. Clinical manifestations and immunological phenotypes were reviewed.

Purpose: Tumor necrosis factor alpha-induced protein 3 (TNFAIP3, A20) is a negative regulator of the nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) pathway. It has recently been recognized that TNFAIP3 deficiency leads to early onset of autoinflammatory and autoimmune syndrome resembling Behçet's disease. Here, we report a novel mutation in TNFAIP3 in a Chinese patient, who had Behçet-like phenotype and persistent Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) viremia.

Deficiency of adenosine deaminase 2 (DADA2) is an autoinflammatory disease caused by autosomal recessive mutations in Cat Eye Syndrome Chromosome Region 1 (CECR1) gene. In this report, we aimed to describe the clinical manifestations, immunological features, genotype, and treatments of one Chinese patient with novel CECR1 gene mutations. This patient initially presented with recurrent fever and rashes from the age of 3 months, but no pathogen was found.

Purpose: We aimed to report the clinical manifestations and immunological features of activated phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase δ syndrome 1 (APDS1) in a Chinese cohort. Moreover, we investigated the efficacy and safety of rapamycin therapy for Chinese patients with APDS1.

Methods: Fifteen Chinese patients with APDS1 from 14 unrelated families were enrolled in this study.

Background: Analyses of amino acid/acylcarnitines in dried blood spots (DBS) and organic acids in urine are the primary tests for inborn errors of metabolism (IEMs). Automated tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) and gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) can rapidly and simultaneously detect numerous metabolic compounds with high precision and sensitivity.

Methods: Three thousand four hundred and twenty-nine DBSs and 2781 urine samples were collected from our hospital patients with suspected IEMs, and analyzed for amino acid/acylcarnitines and organic acids by MS/MS and GC/MS, respectively.

Background: The Friedewald formula (FF) is useful for calculating serum low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) values, but has a remarkable deviation and limitation especially in hypertriglyceridemia. We modify the formula which is now more suitable for LDL-C calculation.

Methods: 2180 cases were classified into three groups according to their TG concentrations (A: < 200 mg/dl, n = 1220; B: 200-400 mg/dl, n = 480; C: 400-1000 mg/dl, n = 480).
