Objective To evaluate systematically the effect of ventilator circuit changes on incidence of ventilator-associated pneumonia(VAP).Methods Literatures about the effect of ventilator circuit changes on occurrence of VAP were searched from PubMed,Cochrane Library,CNKI,VIP,and Wanfang database,incidence of VAP in pa-tients who received circuit changes at different intervals was compared,odds ratio (OR)and 95%CI were as effect index of the study,RevMan 5.2 software was used for data analysis.Results A total of 12 literatures were included,including 18003 patients using ventilators.According to the interval of ventilator circuit changes,patients were divided into 1-day group (n=191),2-day group(n=8932),3-day group(n=228),and 7-day group(n=8652).Meta analysis showed that circuit changed every 7 days had a lower risk of VAP than that changed once ev-ery day (OR,3.72[95%CI,1.50,9.23]),there was no significant difference in risk of VAP between 7-day group and 2-day group (OR,1.17[95%CI,1.00,1.37])as well as 7-day group and 3-day group(OR,0.77 [95%CI, 0.49,1 .23]).Conclusion Patients who received circuit changes every 7 days have a lower risk of developing VAP than those who received circuit changes once per day,so change the ventilator circuit in patients with mechanical ventilation every 7 days is more reasonable.

Objective To investigate the effects of dexmedetomidine on the end-tidal concentration of sevoflurane during recovery from breast cancer surgery under general anaesthesia. Methods A total of 120 patients undergoing unilateral breast cancer radical operation were randomly divided into four groups:group C (infusion of saline, n=30), group D0.5 [infusion of dexmedetomidine 0.5μg/(kg·h) during operation, n=30], group D0.6 [dexmedetomidine 0.6μg/(kg·h), n=30] and group D0.7 [dexmedetomidine 0.7 μg/(kg · h), n=30]. The end-tidal concentrations of sevoflurane during surgery and postoperation were observed. The end-tidal concentration of sevoflurane on palinesthesia was recorded. The time from stopping administration of anesthetic drug to palinesthesia and the operation time were recorded. The palinesthesia of patients from general anaesthesia and the degree of emergence agitation of the patient were measured using Riker ’s sedation-agitation scale. The operation time, anesthesia time, intraoperative remifentanil dosage, intraoperative auditory evoked potential index (AAI), sevoflurane inhalation concentration and the corresponding time were recorded. Results There were no significant differences in clinical data, remifentanil dosage, operation time and AAI between four groups. The anesthesia time was longer in group D0.7 than that in the other three groups (P<0.05). Compared to group C, the end-tidal concentration of sevoflurane during surgery, postoperation and palinesthesia were lower and the time of palinesthesia was delayed in groups D0.5, D0.6 and D0.7 (P<0.05). And the time of palinesthesia was delayed in group D0.7 than that of group D0.5 and group D0.6. Compared with group C, the ratio of Riker’s sedation-agitation scale>7 was lower in groups D0.5, D0.6 and D0.7 (P<0.05). The ratio of Riker’s sedation-agitation scale>4 was significantly higher in group D0.6 and group D0.7 than that in group C and group D0.5, but the ratio of score>6 was lower (P<0.05). The ratio of score>3 was higher in group D0.7 than that of other three groups (P<0.05). Intraoperative cardiac tachycardia was found in group D0.6 and group D0.7 (4 cases, 13%and 8cases, 7%). Conclusion Sevoflurane inhalation anesthesia and intravenous infusion of dexmedetomidine 0.6μg/(kg·h) can effectively reduce intraoperative sevoflurane dosage, the end-tidal concentration of sevoflurane during recovery, and the occurrence of agitation in patients undergoing general anesthesia.

Objective To observe the minimum effective local anesthetic dose of intra-articular ropivacaine with dexmedetomidine for analgesia after knee arthroscopy in patients.Methods Seventy-two patients (35 males,37 females,aged 60-75 years,ASA grade Ⅰ or Ⅱ)undergoing knee arthro-scopy under total intravenous anesthesia were randomly divided into two groups (n =36 each):ropiv-acaine group (group R)and ropivacaine with dexmedetomidine group (group DR);Ropivacaine was injected intra-articularly in group C,and dexmedetomidine 1 μg/kg with ropivacaine was injected intra-articularly in group DR.ED50 of ropivacaine was determined by the sequence method.VAS score3 two hours after operation was rated as effective.The initial dose was 3 mg and according to the effective or ineffective results in previous patient,a dose of ropivacaine was decreased or increased 1.1 times to the previous patient.BP,HR,VAS Score,and OAA/S score were recorded five minutes preoperatively(T0 ),1 h (T1 ),2 h (T2 ),3 h (T3 ),6 h (T4 ),12 h (T5 ),24 h (T6 ),and 48 h (T7 ) after operation in two groups.Results There was no significant difference between the two groups with regard to the BP,HR,VAS Score,and OAA/S score.ED50 of ropivacaine for analgesia after knee arthroscopy was 0.31% (95%CI 0.30%-0.32%),and ED50 of ropivacaine with dexmedetomi-dine for analgesia after knee arthroscopy was 0.14% (95% CI 0.14%-0.1 5%). Conclusion Intra-articular administration of ropivacaine with dexmedetomidine could provide superior postoperative analgesia.The dose of ropivacaine for analgesia after knee arthroscopy should be reduced when combined with dexmedetomidine in patients.

Objective In order to lay the foundation for establishment of a clean grade Meriones meridianus popu-lation, and provide reference for the formulation of Meriones meridianus parasite detection standard.Methods A survey of parasite infection in Meriones meridianus was carried out, and three kinds of antiparasitic drugs, tetramethrin/per-methrin, praziquantel, and tinidazole were used in high-, medium-and low-doses for eradication of the target parasites. Results Three types of parasites were detected among the animals.The infection rate of surface parasite Myobia musculi was 82.1%(23/28), that of intestinal parasite Hymenolepis nana was 78.1% (25/32) and Tritrichomonas muris was 90.6%(29/32).Significant results of parasite eradication were achieved with the antiparasitic drugs.Medicated bath u-sing 1%tetramethrin/permethrin for 30 s every 4 days for 5 times and 1.5%tetramethrin/permethrin for 30 s every 4 days for 3 times completely eradicated the surface Myobia musculi infection.Praziquantel in a dose of 31 mg/kg by daily gastric gavage for consecutive 7 days was the optimal dosage to completely eradicate the intestinal Hymenolepis nana.Tinidazole in a dose of 42 mg/kg administered by gastric gavage daily for consecutive 7 days was the optimal dosage for eradication of in-testinal Tritrichomonas muris infection.Conclusions Three types of parasites are detected in Meriones meridianus in our laboratory, i.e.surface infection with Myobia musculi, and intestinal infection with Tritrichomonas muris and Hymenolepis nana.Tetramethrin/permethrin, praziquantel and tinidazole can be used to effectively eradicate these three types of para-sites, respectively.

Objective:To evaluate the effect of melatonin on prefrontal cortex ischemia-induced cognitive impairment in rats and to investigate the receptor mechanism.Methods:Clean-grade adult male Sprague-Dawley rats, weighing 300 g, were selected, and a catheter was implanted into the prefrontal cortex.The experiment was performed in two parts.Experiment Ⅰ Twenty-four rats, in which catheters were successfully inserted into the prefrontal cortex, were assigned into 3 groups ( n=8 each) using a random number table method: control group (group C), model group (group M) and melatonin group (group ME). Normal saline 0.5 μl was injected into the prefrontal cortex in group C, 1 μmol/L endothelin 0.5 μl was microinjected into the prefrontal cortex in group M, and 1 μmol/L endothelin and 1 μmol/L melatonin 0.5 μl were injected into the prefrontal cortex in group ME.Experiment Ⅱ Forty-four rats, in which catheters were successfully inserted into the prefrontal cortex, were assigned into 4 groups ( n=11 each) using a random number table method: model group (group M), melatonin group (group ME), MT 1/2R antagonist luzindole + melatonin group (group L + ME) and MT 2R antagonist 4p-pdot + melatonin group (group P + ME). In group M, 1 μmol/l endothelin 0.5 μl was microinjected into the prefrontal cortex.In group ME, 1 μmol/L endothelin + 1 μmol/L melatonin 0.5 μl was injected into the prefrontal cortex.In group L + ME, 1 μmol/L endothelin + 1 μmol/L MT 1/2R antagonist + 1 μmol/L melatonin 0.5 μl was injected into the prefrontal cortex.In group P + ME, 1 μmol/L endothelin + 1 μmol/L MT 2R antagonist + 1 μmol/L melatonin 0.5 μl was injected into the prefrontal cortex.T-maze and the open field tests were performed at 1 week after administration. Results:Experiment Ⅰ There was no significant difference in the locomotor speed in open field test among C, M and ME groups ( P>0.05). The rate of correct selection in T-maze test was significantly lower in M and ME groups than in group C and higher in group ME than in group M( P<0.05). Experiment Ⅱ There was no significant difference in the locomotor speed in open field test among the four groups( P>0.05). Compared with group M, the rate of correct selection in open field test was significantly increased in ME and P+ ME groups ( P<0.05), and no significant change was found in group L+ ME ( P>0.05). Compared with group ME, the rate of correct selection in open field test was significantly decreased in group L+ ME ( P<0.05), and no significant change was found in group P+ ME( P>0.05). Conclusion:Melatonin can attenuate prefrontal cortex ischemia-induced cognitive impairment in the rats, and the mechanism is related to activation of MT 1R.

Objective To review the research on the application of clinical decision support system(CDSS)involving nurses in depression both domestically and internationally.Methods 10 Chinese and English databases including PubMed,Web of Science,Scopus,CINAHL,PsycINFO,Embase,Cochrane Library,CNKI,Wanfang Database,and VIP were searched until March,2024.The eligible literature of the application of CDSS involving nurses in depression was selected to analyze the basic characteristics of studies,the functions,characteristics,feasibility,and effectiveness of CDSS.Results Finally,16 English articles involving 13 CDSS were included.This study found that nurses participating in CDSS can improve the degree of depression in patients,but its application in depression management is mainly for screening,and few CDSS can propose personalized depression management programs based on the psychological and social factors of patients.Conclusion The CDSS involving nurses can promote the screening of depression and improve depression in patients,but it fails to propose a personalized depression management program.Future research can develop CDSS based on electronic medical record systems to facilitate nurses'screening for depression and further develop an intelligent management module for CDSS to provide intelligent and personalized management solutions for patients with depression.

ObjectiveTo establish a geographical origin identification model for Foeniculi Fructus from Haiyuan， providing a new technical reference for the protection of Haiyuan's geo-authentic medicinal materials and its designation as a national geographical indication agricultural product. MethodsSamples of Foeniculi Fructus were collected from eight producing areas， including Minqin （Gansu）， Bozhou （Anhui）， Qingdao （Shandong）， Dezhou （Shandong）， Urumqi （Xinjiang）， Nujiang （Yunnan）， Gutuo （Inner Mongolia）， and Haiyuan （Ningxia）. Gas chromatography-ion mobility spectrometry （GC-IMS） was used to detect the volatile organic compounds （VOCs） in samples from these geographic origins. VOCs were qualitatively analyzed through dual matching with the National Institute of Standards and Technology （NIST） mass spectral database and the IMS drift time database. Using the Reporter module and Gallery Plot visualization tools within the LAV analytical platform， VOC fingerprint profiles characterizing geographic origins were constructed. A non-targeted analytical strategy was adopted， and 97 VOCs detected via GC-IMS were subjected to principal component analysis （PCA） and partial least squares discriminant analysis （PLS-DA） based on their differential distribution patterns to construct an origin identification model for Foeniculi Fructus from Haiyuan region. Key discriminative markers were screened using variable importance in projection （VIP） values greater than 1. ResultsA total of 97 VOCs were identified， including alcohols， aldehydes， ketones， esters， organic acids， terpenoids， ethers， alkenes， and benzenes. The PLS-DA model， based on VOCs data obtained by GC-IMS， effectively distinguished Foeniculi Fructus in Haiyuan region from those of other origins. During cross-validation， the model achieved a prediction parameter （Q²） of 0.976 and a goodness-of-fit parameter （R²） of 0.936， with no overfitting observed in permutation testing. Twelve key flavor markers with VIP > 1 were identified as characteristic indicators of Haiyuan origin. ConclusionA stable and highly predictive origin identification model for Foeniculi Fructus from Haiyuan was successfully established using GC-IMS technology， PLS-DA， and VIP-based marker screening. This model provides a novel technical strategy for accurately distinguishing Foeniculi Fructus in Haiyuan region from other regional varieties and offers new technical support for its protection as a geo-authentic medicinal material and a nationally designated geographical indication agricultural product in China.

Objective To investigate the capability for distinguishing between the morphology of Oncomelania hupensis and Tricula snails and its influencing factors among schistosomiasis control professionals in Yunnan Province, so as to evaluate the interference of Tricula snails with O. hupensis surveys. Methods O. hupensis and Tricula snails were sampled from 9 schistosomiasis-endemic counties (districts) in Yunnan Province. The capability for distinguishing between O. hupensis and Tricula snails was evaluated using online questionnaire surveys and field blind tests among schistosomiasis control professionals, and the proportions of correct judgment, misjudgment and missed judgment were calculated. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression models were created using the software SPSS 25.0, and factors affecting the proportion of correct judgments of O. hupensis snails were identified among schistosomiasis control professionals. Results Questionnaire surveys and field blind tests showed that the overall proportions of correct judgments of O. hupensis snails were 56.77% (2 305/4 060) and 68.28% (1 556/2 279) among schistosomiasis control professionals in Yunnan Province, respectively. Univariate logistic regression analysis of online questionnaire surveys identified gender [odds ratio (OR) = 1.244, 95% confidential interval (CI): (1.073, 1.441), P < 0.05], professional title [OR = 0.628, 1.741, 95% CI: (0.453, 0.871), (1.109, 2.734), both P < 0.05], working duration [OR = 0.979, 95% CI: (0.971, 0.987), P < 0.05] and classification of schistosomiasis epidemics in endemic foci [OR = 1.410, 0.293, 0.523, 95% CI: (1.103, 1.804), (0.237, 0.361), (0.416, 0.657), all P < 0.05] as factors affecting the proportion of correct judgments of O. hupensis snails among schistosomiasis control professionals in Yunnan Province, and multivariate logistic regression analysis after adjustments showed that the proportion of O. hupensis snail misjudgments was 1.179 times higher among male schistosomiasis control professionals than among females [OR = 1.179, 95% CI: (1.006, 1.382), P < 0.05], and 1.474 times higher among schistosomiasis control professionals in schistosomiasis-elimination areas with snails than in areas without snails [OR = 1.474, 95% CI: (1.145, 1.898), P < 0.05], and the proportions of missed judgments of O. hupensis snails were 0.284 [OR = 0.284, 95% CI: (0.225, 0.359), P < 0.05] and 0.523 times [OR = 0.523, 95% CI: (0.412, 0.664), P < 0.05] higher among schistosomiasis control professionals in transmission-interruption areas with snails and schistosomiasis-elimination areas with snails than in schistosomiasis-elimination areas without snails. Univariate logistic regression analysis of field blind tests showed age [OR = 2.381, 95% CI: (1.677, 3.381), P < 0.05], professional title [OR = 1.688, 95% CI: (1.103, 2.582), P < 0.05］, working duration [OR = 0.970, 95% CI: (0.956, 0.984), P < 0.05] and classification of schistosomiasis epidemics in endemic foci [OR = 0.262, 0.593, 95% CI: (0.188, 0.364), (0.420, 0.837), both P < 0.05] as factors affecting the proportion of correct judgments of O. hupensis snails among schistosomiasis control professionals in Yunnan Province, and multivariate logistic regression analysis after adjustments showed the proportions of missed judgments of O. hupensis snails were 0.263 [OR = 0.263, 95% CI: (0.176, 0.394), P < 0.05] and 0.604 times [OR = 0.604, 95% CI: (0.416, 0.875), P < 0.05] higher among schistosomiasis control professionals in transmission-interruption areas with snails and schistosomiasis-elimination areas with snails than in schistosomiasis-elimination areas without snails. Conclusions Schistosomiasis control professionals in Yunnan Province have a low accuracy rate for distinguishing between the morphology of O. hupensis and Tricula snails, and gender and classification of schistosomiasis epidemics in endemic foci are factors that affect their ability to distinguish. The presence of Tricula snails causes a high degree of interference with O. hupensis surveys in O. hupensis snail-infested areas of Yunnan Province. Reinforced training for distinguishing between O. hupensis and Tricula snails is required among schistosomiasis control professionals in Yunnan Province.
