Laboratory animals are the "living" tools of medical research. Through animal experiments, people can gain continuous insights into the laws of life, reveal the essence of diseases, develop vaccines and drugs for prevention and treatment, and play an important role in the technological development of fields related to human health. The environmental conditions of laboratory animals have a direct impact on their health, quality, and the results of animal experiments. The higher the degree of environmental control, the more reliable the experimental results are in terms of quality. Therefore, environmental control of laboratory animal facilities is important for ensuring that laboratory animals live under required conditions, which is a key factor for conducting effective animal experiments. This article analyzes the current status of environmental testing of laboratory animal facilities in Sichuan Province, briefly summarizing their number, area, and other basic information, and provides detailed statistics on the ability of institutions to conduct environmental testing for laboratory animal facilities in Sichuan Province. It also summarizes the testing requirements for laboratory animal facility environments based on national standards, regulatory requirements, and the quality control needs of facility users. In the analysis of testing indicators for laboratory animal facilities, based on testing data from 40 laboratory animal facilities in Sichuan Province, it was found that static pressure difference is the indicator most prone to non-compliance, followed by illumination and air exchange rate. Using barrier environments as examples, common problems in the process of environmental testing for laboratory animal facilities are summarized in six aspects: testing personnel, instruments, methods, technical materials, testing environment, and reports, and targeted suggestions are proposed. These suggestions help improve environmental control in laboratory animal facilities, and provide practical reference and guidance for relevant testing institutions, as well as laboratory animal producers and users in the industry.

Objective:To carry out evidence-based practice in the management of exercise rehabilitation for kinesiophobia patients after degenerative lumbar spine disease surgery, construct review indicators, analyze barriers and facilitators to evidence-based practice, and develop strategies for action change.Methods:Using the integrated-promoting action on research implementation in health services model (i-PARIHS model) as a theoretical framework, clinical nursing problems were identified, the evidence-based practice group was built, evidence was systematically retrieved, evaluated, and summarized, and review indicators were developed and review methodology was clarified. An evidence-based baseline review of 36 healthcare professionals in the Department of Orthopedics of the First Affiliated Hospital of Bengbu Medical University was conducted from October 2023 to January 2024 using the Evidence-based Readiness Scale. Barriers and facilitators to the evidence-based practice were analyzed based on the results of the baseline review, strategies for action were developed accordingly.Results:A total of 23 pieces of best evidence were included and 32 review indicators were developed. In the baseline review, 25 of the review indicators had an accurate implementation rate of < 60% and 14 had an implementation rate of 0. The main barriers of evidence-based practice were lack of effective feedback systems, lack of kinesiophobia mentoring programs, and lack of management processes and educational materials. The main facilitators were active support from organizational leadership and high motivation of patients and their families to participate. A total of 15 action strategies were eventually developed.Conclusions:This study constructed review indicators for the management of exercise rehabilitation in kinesiophobia patients after degenerative lumbar spine disease surgery based on the best evidence. There are several barriers in clinical practice. The action change strategy developed is scientifically sound and feasible.

Objective:To explore the latent class characteristics of demoralization in severely disabled stroke patients, and analyze the differences and influencing factors of each class by latent class analysis.Methods:Convenience sampling was used to select 335 patients in the Neurointensive Care Unit of three Class Ⅲ Grade A hospitals in Anhui Province from October 2023 to March 2024, and were confirmed to be with post-stroke disability through follow-up as research subjects. General Information Questionnaire and Demoralization Scale-Ⅱ were used for a survey. Latent class analysis was used to identify latent classes of demoralization, and multiple logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of different latent classes.Results:A total of 335 questionnaires were distributed, and 321 valid questionnaires were retrieved. The effective recovery rate of the questionnaires was 95.8%. Demoralization of severe stroke patients with disability was classified into four categories of low demoralization (40.2%, 129/321), moderate demoralization with coping loss (12.1%, 39/321), moderate demoralization with goal loss (21.2%, 68/321), and high disability (26.5%, 85/321). Multiple Logistic regression analysis showed that age, gender, per capita monthly income of the family, whether was the economic pillar of the family, long-term residence, and relationship with cohabitants were the influencing factors of demoralization in severe stroke patients with disability (all P<0.05) . Conclusions:There are four latent classes of demoralization in stroke patients with disability, and age, gender, per capita monthly income of the family, whether they are the economic pillar of the family, long-term residence, and relationship with cohabitants are the influencing factors of demoralization in severe stroke patients with disability.

Objective:To explore the application value of cinematic rendering reconstruction technology in laparoscopic resection of giant adrenal tumors.Methods:As many as 21 patients with large adrenal tumors who underwent laparoscopic resection in Yongchuan Hospital Affiliated to Chongqing Medical University from January 2021 to January 2024 were retrospectively analyzed, with a median age of 54.0 (40.5, 58.0) years and a median tumor diameter of 7.3 (6.8, 8.8) cm. All patients underwent preoperative cinematic rendering 3D reconstruction imaging. All patients underwent enhanced CT scans. Their CT images were three-dimensionally reconstructed on the post-processing workstation platform. By changing image perspectives, adjusting the visualization of organs or blood vessels, and using physical volume rendering, real-shadow-rendered images were obtained. With these images, surgeons can intuitively understand important preoperative information, like the relationship between the tumor and surrounding organs and the path of tumor-feeding blood vessels, for preoperative planning. Following thorough preoperative preparation, laparoscopic transabdominal resection was performed. During surgery, 20 tumors were found to be located in the adrenal gland, and 1 in the retroperitoneum, with 13 on the left side and 8 on the right side. Preoperative cinematic rendering 3D imaging was consistent with intraoperative findings.Results:All 21 patients underwent successful surgeries, with an average operation time of (199.0±95.3) minutes, a median blood loss of 220 (150, 500) ml, and a median blood transfusion volume of 200 (150, 400) ml. No significant damage of vital organs or major blood vessels occurred, and there were no case of conversion to open surgery.Conclusions:For retroperitoneal giant adrenal tumors, utilizing cinematic rendering 3D reconstruction imaging enables a comprehensive understanding of the relationship between the tumor and surrounding organs and vessels preoperatively. This approach can reduce intraoperative bleeding and collateral injuries, improve the success rate of laparoscopic resection, and enhance overall surgical safety.

A 11-year old female patient with severe thalassemia, receipt a lentivirus-based cell and gene therapy (CGT) therapy in Shenzhen Children′s Hosptial on July 27th, 2021. At the two follow-up visits after discharge, patient were continuously tested positive for HIV screening through HIV Ag/Ab Combo assay (chemiluminescence Immunoassay), and the viral load results of HIV-1 nucleic acid testing (NAT) were both>5 000 copies/ml. The patient can be diagnosed with HIV infection according to the National Guideline for Detection of HIV/AIDS(2020 Revised Edition). The thorough investigation findings and supplementary experiment results indicated that the false-positive HIV-1 NAT results was caused by cross-reactivity between the target sites detected by conventional HIV-1 NAT reagents and the lentiviral vectors fragments integrated into the genome of patient′s hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells. In conclusion, it is important for laboratories to select appropriate HIV-1 NAT testing platforms which won′t cause cross-reactivity for the testing of samples from patients who have been treated with HIV-derived vectors. It is also recommended to design and develop NAT testing platforms with multiple target regions labeled by different fluorescents for HIV NAT supplementation experiment to reduce the risk of false-positive diagnoses of HIV infection.

Ferroptosis is a kind of programmed cell death, involves multi-molecular and multi-signaling pathways, and the core processes is iron overload and lipid peroxidation. It affects cancer, neurological disease, cardiovascular disease, digestive system disease, and many other diseases. While, ischemia-reperfusion injury is an extremely complex pathological process, including ischemia-reperfusion injury of the heart, brain, liver and kidney, etc., which often occurs in shock, organ surgery and organ transplantation, seriously affecting human health, and there is no effective radical treatment. However, ferroptosis is closely related to ischemia-reperfusion injury so that it is possible to find the prevention and treatment measures of ischemia-reperfusion injury by exploring the internal relationship between them. Therefore, the author tries to summarize the signaling pathways of ferroptosis, and explores the relationship between ferroptosis and ischemia-reperfusion injury of heart, brain, liver and kidney by moderating the ferroptosis targets properly to find the effective ways to treat cancer, improve inflammation and relieve other diseases.
