Abstract
Anti-tuberculosis drug-induced liver injury(ATB-DILI) is the most common adverse reaction during anti-tuberculosis therapy in tuberculosis patients. At present, the diagnosis of ATB-DILI is mainly based on traditional biomarkers such as transaminases, but these indicators have low specificity for liver toxicity, they cannot explain the mechanism of liver injury and the early onset of ATB-DILI. Based on the prediction of disease severity, treatment and prevention, this paper described the current potential biomarkers of ATB-DILI.

Abstract
A series of studies on the interventional diagnosis and treatment of tuberculosis(TB)were carried out by domestic and foreign researchers in 2023. The combination of minimally invasive interventional procedures with endoscopes, guidance, material acquisition techniques by multiple ways and multichannel and highly accurate laboratory testing techniques is becoming more and more widely practiced clinically, which has played an important role in the accurate diagnosis of problematic TB. Diagnostic procedures for pulmonary TB, tracheobronchial TB, mediastinal lymphatic TB and extrapulmonary TB included conventional flexible bronchoscopy and specific types of bronchoscopy(ultrathin bronchoscopy and endobronchial ultrasound), transbronchial needle aspiration biopsy, endobronchial ultrasound and virtual bronchoscopic navigation system-guided forceps biopsy, thoracoscopic cryobiopsy of pleura, percutaneous biopsy, and so on. The time to diagnosis has been significantly reduced and the diagnostic efficacy has been improved by the clinical specimen detection using either Gene Xpert MTB/RIF, Ultra, loop-mediated isothermal amplification, metagenomic next-generation sequencing, or nanopore sequencing, etc. Interventional therapy was focused on the following diseases: pulmonary TB with massive hemoptysis, tracheobronchial TB, pleural TB and TB-related fistulas. Interventional treatment of tracheobronchial TB mainly included the application of rigid bronchoscopy, bronchoscopic cold and thermal ablation treatment, endoscopic clamp, dilatations of narrow airway with balloon and stent placement, etc. The interventional treatment of pulmonary TB complicated by massive hemoptysis included endovascular embolization, coated stent placement, etc. Interventional treatment of pleural TB involved the application of thoracoscopy, endoscopic forceps, the implantation of stent and other occlusive devices and the closure of fistulas with autologous fat transplantation. In this article, we reviewed the progress of interventional diagnosis and treatment of TB by the search of published literatures from October 2022 to September 2023.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the risk factors for pulmonary atelectasis in adults with tracheobronchial tuberculosis(TBTB). Methods: Clinical data of adult patients (≥18 years old) with TBTB from February 2018 to December 2021 in Public Health Clinical Center of Chengdu were retrospectively analyzed. A total of 258 patients were included, with a male to female ratio of 1∶1.43. The median age was 31(24, 48) years. Clinical data including clinical characteristics, previous misdiagnoses/missed diagnoses before admission, pulmonary atelectasis, the time from symptom onset to atelectasis and bronchoscopy, bronchoscopy and interventional treatment were collected according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Patients were divided into two groups according to whether they had pulmonary atelectasis. Differences between the two groups were compared. Binary logistic regression was used to analyze the risk factors for pulmonary atelectasis. Results: The prevalence of pulmonary atelectasis was 14.7%, which was most common in the left upper lobe (26.3%). The median time from symptom onset to atelectasis was 130.50(29.75,358.50)d, and the median time from atelectasis to bronchoscopy was 5(3,7)d. The median age, the proportion of misdiagnosis of TBTB before admission, and the time from symptom onset to bronchoscopy in the atelectasis group were higher than those without atelectasis, and the proportion of receiving bronchoscopy examination and interventional therapy previously, and the proportion of pulmonary cavities were lower than those without atelectasis (all P<0.05). The proportions of cicatrices stricture type and lumen occlusion type in the atelectasis group were higher than those without atelectasis, while the proportions of inflammatory infiltration type and ulceration necrosis type were lower than those without atelectasis (all P<0.05). Older age (OR=1.036, 95%CI: 1.012-1.061), previous misdiagnosis(OR=2.759, 95%CI: 1.100-6.922), longer time from symptom onset to bronchoscopy examination (OR=1.002, 95%CI: 1.000-1.005) and cicatrices stricture type (OR=2.989, 95%CI: 1.279-6.985) were independent risk factors for pulmonary atelectasis in adults with TBTB (all P<0.05). Of the patients with atelectasis who underwent bronchoscopy interventional therapy, 86.7% had lung reexpansion or partial reexpansion. Conclusions: The prevalence of pulmonary atelectasis is 14.7% in adult patients with TBTB. The most common site of atelectasis is left upper lobe. The TBTB type of lumen occlusion is complicated by pulmonary atelectasis in 100% of cases. Being older, misdiagnosed as other diseases, longer time from onset of symptoms to bronchoscopy examination, and being the cicatrices stricture type are factors for developing pulmonary atelectasis. Early diagnosis and treatment are needed to reduce the incidence of pulmonary atelectasis and increase the rate of pulmonary reexpansion.

Abstract
With the emergence of new tuberculosis patients, the number of patients with tuberculosis sequelae is increasing, which not only increases the medical burden of tuberculosis sequelae year by year, but also affects the health-related quality of life (HRQOL) of patients. The HRQOL of patients with tuberculosis sequelae has gradually received attention, but there are few relevant studies. Studies have shown that HRQOL is related to various factors such as post-tuberculosis lung disease, adverse reaction to anti-tuberculosis drugs, decreased physical activity, psychological barriers, low economic status and marital status. This article reviewed the current situation of HRQOL in patients with sequelae of tuberculosis and its influencing factors, in order to provide a reference for improving the quality of life of patients with sequelae of tuberculosis.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the molecular regulatory mechanism of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) protein Rv0309 to promote the survival of Mycobacterium smegmatis (Ms) in macrophages. Methods: Using Ms as a model to study Mycobacterium tuberculosis, recombinant Ms transfected with pMV261 and PMV261-RV0309 in the control group and RAW264.7 cells were constructed. The effect of Rv0309 protein on intracellular survival of Ms was investigated by counting colony forming units (CFUs). Mass spectrometry was used to screen proteins interacting with host protein Rv0309, and immunocoprecipitate (Co-IP) was used to verify that host protein STUB1 could interact with host protein Rv0309. STUB1 gene knock-out RAW264.7 cells were infected with Ms, and CFUs were counted to explore the effect of protein Rv0309 on intracellular survival of Ms after STUB1 gene knock-out. STUB1 gene knock-out RAW264.7 cells were infected with Ms, and after obtaining samples, Western blotting assay was performed to explore the effect of protein Rv0309 on autophagy function of macrophages after STUB1 gene knock-out. Statistical analysis was performed using GraphPad Prism 8 software. T-test was selected for analysis in this experiment, with P<0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results: Western blotting showed that Rv0309 was expressed in M. smegmatis and secreted extracellularly. The CFUs of the Ms-Rv0309 group was higher than that of Ms-pMV261 group at 24 h after THP-1 macrophage infection, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). The trend of infected RAW264.7 macrophages was the same as that of infected THP-1 macrophages. The Co-IP results showed that the corresponding Flag and HA bands appeared in the results of immunoprecipitation (IP):Flag and IP: HA. The level of CFUs in the experimental group with STUB1 deletion was significantly higher than that in the control group without STUB1 deletion. Compared with Ms-pMV261, the CFUs in the Ms-Rv0309 group was significantly higher than that in the Ms-pMV261 group. The gray scale of LC3Ⅱ bands of Ms-Rv0309 in experimental group was lighter than that of Ms-pMV261 in the control group at the corresponding time point, and the result was most significant at 8 h (LC3Ⅱ/β-actin: 0.76±0.05 vs 0.47±0.07), the difference being statistically significant (P<0.05). After STUB1 genome knock-out, the gray level of LC3Ⅱ bands at the corresponding time was lighter than that without STUB1 genome knock-out. Comparison of the results of Ms-pMV261 and Ms-Rv0309 strains revealed that LC3Ⅱ band gray Rv0309 group was lighter at the corresponding time compared with pMV261 group. Conclusions: MTB protein Rv0309 can be successfully expressed in M. smegmatis and secreted extracellularly, which can inhibit the autophagy process of macrophages. Protein Rv0309 interacts with host protein STUB1 to inhibit macrophage autophagy and promote intracellular survival of Ms.

Abstract
Objective: To summarize the characteristics of patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (NDMM) admitted at Ruijin Hospital affiliated to Shanghai Jiaotong University School of Medicine. We compared the clinical characteristics and prognoses among patients with non-extramedullary disease (EMD), bone-related extramedullary (EM-B) disease, and extraosseous extramedullary (EM-E) disease and further explored the effects of autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (ASCT) for EMD. Methods: From January 2015 to January 2022, data of 114 patients (22%) with EMD out of 515 patients with NDMM were retrospectively analyzed; 91 (18%) and 23 (4%) patients comprised the EM-B and EM-E groups, respectively. The clinical characteristics of patients in all groups were compared with the Chi-square test. Progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) of patients were analyzed by the Kaplan-Meier method. Independent prognostic factors were determined using multivariate Cox proportional hazard model. Results: There were no significant differences in age, gender, ISS stage, light chain, creatinine clearance, cytogenetic risk, 17p deletion, ASCT, and induction regimens among the three groups. Overall, 13% of EM-E patients had IgD-type M protein, which was significantly higher than that in EM-B patients (P=0.021). The median PFS of patients in the non-EMD, EM-B, and EM-E groups was 27.4, 23.1, and 14.0 months; the median OS was not reached, 76.8 months, and 25.6 months, respectively. The PFS (vs non-EMD, P=0.004; vs EM-B, P=0.036) and OS (vs non-EMD, P<0.001; vs EM-B, P=0.002) were significantly worse in patients with EM-E, while those were not significantly different between patients with EM-B and those with non-EMD. In the multivariate analysis, EM-E was an independent prognostic factor for OS in patients with NDMM (HR=8.779, P<0.001) and negatively impacted PFS (HR=1.874, P=0.050). In those who did not undergo ASCT, patients with EM-B had significantly worse OS than those with non-EMD (median 76.8 months vs. not reached, P=0.029). However, no significant difference was observed in the PFS and OS of patients with EM-B and those with non-EMD who underwent ASCT. Conclusions: Compared to patients with either non-EMD or EM-B, those with EM-E had the worst prognosis. EM-E was an independent risk factor for OS in patients with NDMM. ASCT can overcome the poor prognosis of EM-B.

Abstract
At present, the number of cases with multidrug/rifampicin-resistant tuberculosis (MDR/RR-TB) in China ranks fourth in the world, and the prevention and control situation is still serious. Chemotherapy, as the most important treatment for MDR/RR-TB, was studied and explored by domestic and foreign researchers in 2022. New chemotherapeutic drugs such as delpazolid, sutezolid, telacebec and independently developed anti-tuberculosis drugs such as pyrifazimine, sudapyridine and JBD0131 are still in clinical trials. The efficacy, safety, tolerability, adverse reactions and drug resistance of bedaquiline, linezolid, delamanid and pretomanid have been studied extensively. Meanwhile, different new chemotherapy regimens centered on new drugs have been explored in-depth by international scholars. In this article, we reviewed the progress of chemotherapy of multidrug/rifampicin-resistant tuberculosis from October 2021 to September.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction/Objective
Malignant melanomas (MM) account for 4-7% of all new cancer cases. The most common primary site is the skin, however, in 1.3% of cases, these tumors originate from the mucous membranes of the respiratory, genitourinary, and gastrointestinal tracts. The metastatic spread to the biliary system is extremely infrequent, with rare reports in the literature. Herein, we report a case of history of cutaneous MM with metastasis to the biliary tract.
Methods/Case Report
A 35-year-old Caucasian female presented with pruritis, dark urine, and jaundice. Laboratory results favored the cholestatic process (total bilirubin – 10 mg/dL, alkaline phosphatase – 500 U/L, AST- 400 U/L, ALT – 1000 U/L). She had a remote diagnosis of MM of the left chest with metastases to bilateral axillary and periclavicular lymph nodes 8 years ago. She underwent wide local excision of the skin lesion and lymph node dissection then. ERCP with direct cholangioscopy revealed a 3 x 2 cm obstructive mass in the common bile duct which was biopsied to reveal cohesive, pleomorphic, epithelioid cells containing black-brown pigment with enlarged, irregular, and hyperchromatic nuclei. These atypical cells stained strongly with SOX10 and Mart-1 immunohistochemical stains, confirming the diagnosis of metastatic malignant melanoma.
Results (if a Case Study enter NA)
NA.
Conclusion
MM is cancer that originates from melanocytes, derived from the neural crest during embryogenesis. The pathogenesis of metastatic spread to the biliary system is still unknown due to the paucity of literature describing this. Diagnosis is often difficult, with many patients completely asymptomatic or occasionally presenting with biliary symptoms. There should be a detailed history, and extensive clinical workup along with extensive histological and immunoprofile, esp. in cases with a history of cutaneous melanoma for early detection of a potential metastasis leading to adequate management.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is a complex of interrelated risk factors, including central adiposity, increased blood pressure, hyperglycemia, elevated triglyceride levels and low high-density lipoprotein. Few studies have reported the genetic variants in the Sirt1 and Nrf2 genes (Sirt1 rs7895833 A > G, Sirt1 rs2273773 C > T and Nrf2 rs6721961 C > A) that increase the risk of type 2 diabetes mellitus and are correlated with some glycemic and metabolic traits in the Chinese Han population. METHODS Our study recruited 141 individuals with MetS and 549 individuals without MetS to investigate the associations between three single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of Sirt1 and Nrf2 and the risk of MetS in a Chinese Han population using the PCR-CTPP method. RESULTS This research showed that the risk of MetS was 2.41 times higher for the AA genotype (P = 0.038) and 1.94 times higher for the AG genotype (P = 0.016) compared with carriers of the GG genotype. The serum levels of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol and HOMA-IR were significantly higher (P < 0.05) in carriers of the AA genotype of Sirt1 rs7895833 than in carriers of the AG and GG genotypes in the general population. The serum level of total cholesterol in the AA genotype was lower (P = 0.033) than that in the other two genotypes. However, the genotype frequencies of Sirt1 rs2273773 and Nrf2 rs6721961 in the MetS group were not significantly different from those in the control subjects, and those two genetic variants were not correlated with metabolic traits. CONCLUSIONS These results underscore the contributions of SNPs of Sirt1 rs7895833 to MetS susceptibility as well as glycemic and metabolic traits in a Chinese population.

Abstract
Background The highly pathogenic Influenza H7N9 virus is believed to cause multiple organ infections. However, there have been few systematic animal experiments demonstrating the virus distribution after H7N9 virus infection. The present study was carried out to investigate the viral distribution and pathological changes in the main organs of mice after experimental infection with highly pathogenic H7N9 virus. Methods Infection of mice with A/Guangdong/GZ8H002/2017(H7N9) virus was achieved via nasal inoculation. Mice were killed at 2, 3, and 7 days post infection. The other mice were used to observe their illness status and weight changes. Reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction and viral isolation were used to analyse the characteristics of viral invasion. The pathological changes of the main organs were observed using haematoxylin and eosin staining and immunohistochemistry. Results The weight of H7N9 virus-infected mice increased slightly in the first two days. However, the weight of the mice decreased sharply in the following days, by up to 20%. All the mice had died by the 8th day post infection and showed multiple organ injury. The emergence of viremia in mice was synchronous with lung infection. On the third day post infection, except in the brain, the virus could be isolated from all organs (lung, heart, kidney, liver, and spleen). On the seventh day post infection, the virus could be detected in all six organs. Brain infection was detected in all mice, and the viral titre in the heart, kidney, and spleen infection was high. Conclusion Acute diffuse lung injury was the initial pathogenesis in highly pathogenic H7N9 virus infection. In addition to lung infection and viremia, the highly pathogenic H7N9 virus could cause multiple organ infection and injury.

Abstract
The quarantine and treatment plays an important role in prevention and control of respiratory infectious diseases. It has been nearly 200 years since sanatorium model was adopted to isolate and treat patients with tuberculosis(TB). The era of the Republic of China was an important period for the model to sprout and expand. TB sanatorium was established in the early 20th century in China, and flourished in the 1930s. Establishment and changes of TB sanatoriums in Peking, Shanghai and Hangzhou during the era of the Republic of China, has great significance for sorting out the clues of China's anti-TB history, exploring historical trends of TB in China, and most important of all, summing up valuable lessons.

Abstract
The H7N9 virus mutated in 2017, resulting in new cases of highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) H7N9 virus infection. H7N9 was found in a viraemic patient in Guangdong province, China. The present study aimed to clarify the pathogenic characteristics of HPAI H7N9. Virus was isolated from the plasma and sputum of the patient with HPAI H7N9. Liquid phase chip technology was used to detect the plasma cytokines from the infected patient and healthy controls. Mice were infected with strains A/Guangdong/GZ8H002/2017(H7N9) and A/Zhejiang/DTID-ZJU01/2013(H7N9) to observe the virus’s pathogenic characteristics. Serum and brain tissue were collected at 2, 4, and 6 days after infection. The viruses in serum and brain tissue were detected and isolated. The two strains were infected into A549 cells, exosomes were extracted, and virus genes in the exosomes were assessed. Live virus was isolated from the patient’s plasma. An acute cytokine storm was detected during the whole course of the disease. In animal experiments, A/Guangdong/GZ8H002/2017(H7N9) was more pathogenic than A/Zhejiang /DTID-ZJU01/2013(H7N9) and resulted in the death of mice. Live virus was isolated from infected mouse serum. Virus infection was also detected in the brain of mice. Under viral stress, A549 cells secreted exosomes containing the entire viral genome. The viraemic patient was confirmed to have an HPAI H7N9 infection. A/Guangdong/GZ8H002/2017(H7N9) showed significantly enhanced toxicity. Patient deaths might result from cytokine storms and brain infections. Extrapulmonary tissue infection might occur via the exosome pathway. The determined pathogenic characteristics of HPAI H7N9 will contribute to its future treatment.

Abstract
Background Disseminated Nocardia infection is a disease that is easily overlooked in patients with lesions occupying the intracranial space complicated with coma. Early diagnosis and treatment are crucial. Case presentation A 65-year-old man was admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University in October 2018 with weakness in the right limbs for 3 days and altered consciousness for 1 day. Five months earlier, he had been diagnosed with membranous kidney disease and had received cyclophosphamide and prednisone. At admission, the white blood cell count was 1.37 × 1010/L (with 86.4% neutrophils), and C-reactive protein was 115.60 mg/L. Imaging examinations revealed a lesion occupying the intracranial space, lung infection, and multiple abscesses in the rhomboid muscle. The abscesses were drained. Pus culture confirmed Nocardia cyriacigeorgica infection. With antibiotics and vacuum-sealed drainage of the back wound, the patient improved and was discharged from the hospital. Conclusions This case report shows that infection should be considered during the differential diagnosis of lesions in the intracranial space, especially in patients receiving immunosuppressive treatment. In patients with disseminated N. cyriacigeorgica infection, combination antibiotic therapy and surgical drainage of localised abscesses can be effective.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the prevalence risk factors of Beijing genotype Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) in Beijing and its correlation with second-line anti tuberculosis drug resistance. Methods: A total of 1 140 clinical MTB positive strains were collected from various districts in Beijing, and the drug sensitivity was detected by proportion method. Beijing genotype and non Beijing genotype MTB were identified by the method of Spoligotyping. Using SPSS 22.0 statistical software, chi square test or Fisher exact probability test was used to analyze the experimental data. Results: Among 1 140 MTB clinical isolates, 941 (82.5%) were Beijing genotype MTB, 199 were non Beijing genotype MTB. There were 663 males (70.5%) in Beijing genotype and 124 males (62.3%) in non Beijing genotype strains. There were significant differences in the proportion of males between the two genotypes [P=0.021, OR (95% CI):1.442 (1.048-1.985)]. There were 441 floating population (46.9%) in Beijing genotype MTB and 78 floating population (39.2%) in non Beijing genotype MTB. There was a significant difference in the proportion of floating population between the two genotypes [P=0.048,OR (95%CI):1.368(1.001-1.869)]. There were 129 patients (13.7%) aged 65 or older in Beijing genotype MTB, 40 patients (20.1%) aged 65 or older in non Beijing genotype MTB. The difference was statistically significant [P=0.021, or (95% CI): 0.631 (0.426-0.936)]. The resistance drug rates of Levofloxacin (Lfx), Amikacin (Am), Capreomycin (Cm), Para-aminosalicylic (PAS) in Beijing genotypes were 5.5% (52/941), 1.3% (12/941), 3.2% (30/941) and 3.0% (28/941), respectively, and those of non Beijing genotypes were 10.6% (21/199), 8.5% (17/199, 12.6% (25/199) and 11.6% (23/199), the difference was statistically significant (all P<0.05). There were 58 (6.2%) multidrug-resistant (MDR) strains in Beijing genotype MTB and 19 (9.5%) multidrug-resistant strains in non Beijing genotype. There was no significant difference in the proportion of MDR strains between Beijing genotype and non Beijing genotype (P>0.05). Conclusions: Beijing genotype MTB is widespread in Beijing and has a higher proportion in male population and floating population. Compared with non Beijing genotype, Beijing genotype MTB has a lower resistance rate to Lfx, Am, Cm and PAS, and there is no significant difference in the proportion of MDR-TB patients between the two genotypes.

Abstract
Objective: To study the clinicopathological features, diagnostic features and differential diagnoses of SMARCB1 (INI1)-deficient sinonasal carcinoma (SDSC). Methods: Six cases of SDSC diagnosed at Eye, Ear, Nose and Throat Hospital, Fudan University from 2016 to 2018 were retrieved; the clinical features, histomorphology, immunophenotype, radiology and outcome were analyzed with review of literature. Results: There were five men and one woman with age range of 37 years to 75 years (mean 56 years). One case was in stage T2, and 5 cases were in stage T4. Computer tomography and magnetic resonance imaging showed a mass occupying the sinonasal cavity with bone destruction in all six patients. Microscopically, the tumors had infiltrative margins. Four tumors were composed mostly of basaloid cells, which possessed high nuclear/cytoplasmic ratio,scant cytoplasm,and minimalnuclear pleomorphism; and the cells were arranged in sheets or nests in a desmoplastic stroma. Two tumors were composed of rhabdoid cells, which possessed abundant, eosinophilic cytoplasm and eccentric nuclei, often growing in a nests or sheets pattern. Immunohistochemical staining showed that 6/6 cases had complete loss of INI1, diffusely and strongly positive for CKpan, and were negative for S-100 and EBER ISH; 4/6 cases were focally positive for p63; 1/5 was focally positive for Syn and p16. The Ki-67 index was 30% to 70%. The follow-up period ranged 1-26 months, with one patient died of extensive metastases, one had local recurrence, and two had lymph node metastases; one was alive without disease, and one was lost to follow-up. Conclusions: SMARCB1 (INI1)-deficient sinonasal carcinoma is mostly aggressive, with rapid progression and poor prognosis. Histomorphological spectrum predominantly consists of basaloid type and rhabdoid type. The complete loss of nuclear expression of INI1 can help to distinguish this tumor from its many mimickers.
