| 1 | A multicenter retrospective cohort study of ketogenic diet therapy in 481 children with infantile spasms显示文摘Background:Ketogenic diet(KD)therapy is one of the main treatments for drug-resistant epilepsy.However,the KD therapy has been applied in only a small number of infantile spasm cases.In this large multicenter study,we investigated the efficacy of KD therapy in the treatment of infantile spasms.Methods:In this retrospective,multicenter cohort study,clinical data from main epilepsy centers were analyzed.Patients were classified into different groups according to age,type of drug and whether glucocorticoid was used before initiation of KD.Results:From October 2014 to March 2020,481 patients(308 males and 173 females)with infantile spasms were treated with the KD therapy.The age of the patients ranged from 2 months to 20 years,with a mean age of 1 year and 10 months.The number of anti-seizure medications(ASMs)used before KD initiation ranged 0-6,with a median of 3.In different time from initiation(1,3,6,and 12 months),the rates of seizure freedom after KD were 6.9,11.6;16.0 and 16.8%,respectively(x^(2)=27.1772,P<0.0001).There was a significant difference in the rate of seizure freedom between 3 months and 1 month(x^(2)=6.5498,P=0.0105)groups,and 6 months and 3 months(x^(2)=3.8478,P=0.0498)groups,but not between 12 months and 6 months(x^(2)=0.1212,P=0.7278)groups.The rates of effectiveness were 44.7;62.8,49.1 and 32.0%(x^(2)=93.2674,P<0.0001),respectively.The retention rates were 94.0,82.5,55.7 and 33.1%(x^(2)=483.7551,P<0.0001),correspondingly.The rate of effectiveness and the retention rate of KD were significantly different among the 1,3,6 and 12 months.KD treatment was the first choice in 25 patients(5.2%),55 patients(11.4%)started KD after the failure of the first ASM,158 patients(32.8%)started KD after the failure of the second ASM,157 patients(32.6%)started KD after the failure of the third drug,and 86 patients(17.9%)started KD after the failure of the fourth and more.The KD effect was not related to the number of ASMs used before KD startup(P>0.05).Two hundred and eighteen patients(45.3%)failed to respond to corticotropin or glucocorticoid before initiation.There was no significant difference in the effectiveness rate at different time points between the group of KD therapy after glucocorticoid failure and the group after non-hormone failure (x^(2)=0.8613,P=0.8348).The rate of adverse events of KD in 1,3,6,and 12 months after KD initiation were 22.3,21.7,16.8 and 6.9%,respectively.The adverse events mainly occurred during the first 3 months of KD,and the main adverse events were gastrointestinal disturbance and constipation.Conclusions:The efficacy of the KD treatment for infantile spasms was not affected by age,medication,and glucocorticoid use before initiation.KD is one of the effective treatments for infantile spasms. | Yuanzhen Ye Dan Sun Hua Li Jianmin Zhong Rong Luo Baomin Li Dengna Zhu Dan Li Shaoping Huang Yuwu Jiang Nong Xiao Yucai Chen Yuqin Zhang Mei Yu Xiaoyun Shen Li Gao Guo Zheng Congmin Zhao Baoqiang Yuan Jianxiang Liao Jiong Qin CAAE KD group | 2022 | Acta Epileptologica2022，5，1： | 2 |
| 5 | Surface modification of MoS_(2) nanosheets by single Ni atom for ultrasensitive dopamine detection显示文摘Single atom catalysts have been recognized as potential catalysts to fabricate electrochemical biosensors,due to their unexpected catalytic selectivity and activity.Here,we designed and fabricated an ultrasensitive dopamine(DA)sensor based on the flower-like MoS_(2) embellished with single Ni site catalyst(Ni-MoS_(2)).The limit of detection could achieve 1 pM in phosphate buffer solution(PBS,pH=7.4),1 pM in bovine serum(pH=7.4),and 100 pM in artificial urine(pH=6.8).The excellent sensing performance was attributed to the Ni single atom axial anchoring on the Mo atom in the MoS_(2) basal plane with the Ni-S_(3) structure.Both the experiment and density functional theory(DFT)results certify that this structural feature is more favorable for the adsorption and electron transfer of DA on Ni atoms.The high proportion of Ni active sites on MoS_(2) basal plane effectively enhanced the intrinsic electronic conductivity and electrochemical activity toward DA.The successful establishment of this sensor gives a new guide to expand the field of single atom catalyst in the application of biosensors. | Xuejiao Sun Cai Chen Can Xiong Congmin Zhang Xusheng Zheng Jin Wang Xiaoping Gao Zhen-Qiang Yu Yuen Wu | 2023 | Nano Research2023，16，1： | 0 |
