Objective To investigate the change of cardiac troponin Ⅰ (cTn Ⅰ),interleukin (IL)-6 in patients undergoing cardiac valve replacement and compare the degrees of fentanil,sufentanil,and remifentanil on myocardial protection and inhibiting effect of inflammatory.Methods Forty-eight patients,undergoing cardiac valve replacement,were randomly divided into three groups (n =16):remifentanil (group R),sufentanil (group S),and fentanil (group F).All the patients were total intravenous anesthesia of midazolam,opioid,vecuronim,and propofol.Different opioids were used in each group.Group R was induced with remifentanyl 1 ～2 μg/kg and maintained at a rate of 1 ～4 μg/(kg · min).Group S was induced with sufentanyl 1 ～2 μg/kg and maintained at a rate of 1 ～4 μg/(kg · h).Group F was induced with fentanyl 5 ～ 10 μg/kg and maintained at a rate of 10 ～30 μg/(kg · h).Blood samples were taken before anesthesia (T0),twenty minutes after aortic declamping (T1),the end of operation (T2),6 h (T3),and 24 h (T4) after cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) for determination of plasma concentration of troponinⅠ and IL-6.Results Compared to T0,cTn Ⅰ and IL-6 in three group at T1,T2,T3 were significantly higher (P ＜ 0.05),cTn Ⅰ reached the peak level at T4 (P ＜ 0.05),IL-6 reached the peak level at T3 (P ＜ 0.05).Compared to group F,cTn Ⅰ and IL-6 in groups S and R at T1,T2,T3,and T4 decreased significantly (P ＜0.05).Conclusion Compared to fentanil,sufentanil and remifentanil had comparative advantages on lessening myocardial injury and inhibiting effect of inflammatory for patients who are undergoing cardiac valve replacement.

Objective:To investigate the clinical and molecular genetic characteristics of 6q24-related transient neonatal diabetes mellitus (6q24-TNDM).Methods:The clinical data of two neonates with 6q24-TNDM admitted to Shanghai Children's Hospital, Shanghai Jiao Tong University in 2017, were retrospectively collected. The methylation levels of 16 cytidine-phosphate-guanosine (CpG) sites from the methylated differentially modified region (DMR) in 6q24 were quantitatively analyzed by pyrosequencing.Results:Case 1, aged 5 d, was born at 37 +4 gestational weeks due to fetal growth restriction, and case 2 was 11-days old and born at 38 +2 gestational weeks. Both infants were male and small for age. They were born through a cesarean section. The birth weight of case 1 and case 2 were 2 340 g and 2 600 g, respectively. They were admitted due to hyperglycemia with blood glucose of 12.95 and 8.00 mmol/L on admission, respectively. Physical examination showed slightly poor skin elasticity and thin subcutaneous fat. Laboratory examination revealed lower serum insulin (<1.39 and 3.94 pmol/L) and peptide C (0.05 and 0.14 nmol/L) levels, positive results of urine glucose, negative tests for urine ketone, serum anti-glutamic acid decarboxylase antibody, anti-insulin antibody, and islet cell antibody in both cases. Normal size of the pancreas was observed by ultrasonography. The infants were improved and were discharged after subcutaneous insulin infusion for more than two weeks. The treatment was discontinued at 69 d and 42 d postnatally for case 1 and case 2. Prenatal diagnosis of the two infants showed normal karyotypes and uniparental disomy of chromosome 6 indicated by single nucleotide polymorphism chip. No pathogenic mutations were detected by next-generation sequencing after admission. The methylation levels of 16 CpG sites in DMR of 6q24 in the two cases, which were quantitatively analyzed by pyrosequencing, were lower than 10% (normal value in healthy matched controls: 40%), indicating an obvious hypomethylation. Conclusions:For children with TNDM who are small for gestational age at birth, presenting hyperglycemia with decreased serum insulin and C-peptide levels, pyrosequencing can be used to quantitatively analyze the methylation levels of CpG sites in 6q24 DMR, which can quickly and directly assist in the diagnosis of 6q24-TNDM, thereby contributing to the treatment and prognosis assessment.

Objective To screen the active components of Bushen Huoxue Decoction ( BSHXD) involved in promoting the proliferation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells ( MSCs). Methods BSHXD and its subdivisions were extracted with petroleum ether, ethyl acetate, water-free ethanol and water respectively. MSCs were isolated and cultured by the bone marrow adherent method. At the third passage, MSCs were identified by the specific surface markers with immunofluorescence, and their osteogenic and adipogenic differentiation were tested by alizarin red staining and oil red “O” staining. After treated with the extracts of BSHXD and its subdivisions at gradient concentrations for 24 hours, cell viability was detected by methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) assay for the screening of active components and optimal concentration. MTT assay was used to describe the growth curve of MSCs treated with the most effective components, and cell cycle was analyzed by flow cytometry. Results Compared with the blank control group, the extracts of BSHXD and its subdivisions could protect MSCs from death to various degrees. Of all the extracts, the ethyl acetate extract of Bushen Division ( BSD) , ethyl acetate extract of BSHXD, ethyl acetate extract of Huoxue Division ( HXD) had the strongest effect, and the effect was dose-dependent, 100 μg/mL being the optimal active concentration while having no any cytotoxic reaction. The results of MTT assay revealed that BSD extracts promoted the proliferation of MSCs significantly and was the most effective component, and then came BSHXD. The results of flow cytometry indicated that BSD extract had the most strongest effect on increasing the amount of MSCs at proliferative phase, and then came BSHXD. Conclusion BSD ethyl acetate extract is the active component of BSHXD for promoting the proliferation of MSCs, showing an effect on increasing the proportion of MSCs at proliferative phase.

Objective:To construct a training program to improve the psychological nursing ability of clinical nurses, so as to provide a strong guarantee for the clinical development of psychological nursing.Methods:By consulting the literature, related books and investigating the curriculum of nursing colleges, the first draft of the training program was drawn up. Four departments of Cardiovascular Medicine of the Second Xiangya Hospital of Central South University from May to August 2019 were recruited and 64 nurses were trained.

The coefficient of variation of each item of training contents was 0.06-0.23, and the coefficient of variation of training methods and training duration of each part was 0.06-0.17.Conclusions:The training program is scientific, reasonable, detailed and practical, which can provide guarantee for improving the psychological nursing ability of clinical nurses.

Small interfering RNA-based RNA interference(RNAi)is an emerging treatment which has attracted more and more attention from both academia and industry. Studies on clinical translation of siRNA are popular in biomedical field, where safe and efficient carriers are necessary. As novel drug/gene vectors, dendrimers are widely used in siRNA delivery due to their unique and precise structure, multiple terminal groups and nano-sized chemophysical properties. Here, we present an overall view of current studies on dendrimer-based siRNA delivery systems, with the aim to provide an understanding of future siRNA therapeutics which could be used in clinic.

ObjectiveTo understand the use of antibiotics in inpatients and the incidence and trend of hospital infections， to explore the implementation effect of comprehensive management measures， and to provide reference for hospitals to use antibiotics reasonably. MethodsBased on the hospital infection monitoring and management system， a retrospective analysis and comparison were conducted on the use of antibiotics， submission of microbial test samples， and incidence of hospital infections among inpatients in a tertiary hospital from 2012 to 2021. ResultsFrom 2012 to 2021， the use of antibiotics showed a downward trend， from 50.82% in 2012 to 41.29% in 2021. At the same time， the use rate of restricted and special antibiotics had also decreased， and the use rate of restricted and special antibiotics in patients without hospital infection was significantly lower than that in patients with hospital infection， and the microbial testing rate was also on the rise. The annual incidence rate of hospital infection was 0.69%‒1.92%， and the annual case-time prevalence rate was 0.79%‒2.17%. The annual average rate of the above two in 10 years was 1.18% and 1.34%， respectively. The results of the exponential smoothing model also showed that the utilization rate of antibiotics was decreasing and the incidence of nosocomial infection was stable. ConclusionLarge general hospitals took comprehensive management measures to strengthen the management of rational use of antibiotics， which led to a decline in the use rate of antibacterial drugs for inpatients and an increase in the rate of microbial examination. At the same time， the overall incidence of hospital infection was relatively stable， suggesting that the comprehensive management measures of antibacterial drugs in hospitals had achieved certain results. The current measures need to be optimized in the future to continuously improve the management level of rational use of antibacterial drugs.

Currently, in precision cardiac surgery, there are still some pressing issues that need to be addressed. For example, cardiopulmonary bypass remains a critical factor in precise surgical treatment, and many core aspects still rely on the experience and subjective judgment of cardiopulmonary bypass specialists and surgeons, lacking precise data feedback. With the increasing elderly population and rising surgical complexity, precise feedback during cardiopulmonary bypass becomes crucial for improving surgical success rates and facilitating high-complexity procedures. Overcoming these key challenges requires not only a solid medical background but also close collaboration among multiple interdisciplinary fields. Establishing a multidisciplinary team encompassing professionals from the medical, information, software, and related industries can provide high-quality solutions to these challenges. This article shows several patents from a collaborative medical and electronic information team, illustrating how to identify unresolved technical issues and find corresponding solutions in the field of precision cardiac surgery while sharing experiences in applying for invention patents.
