Objective To explore the effects of thrombelastogram (TEG) on preventing deep venous thrombosis (DVT) and hemorrhage after surgery for varicosity of lower extremities. Methods Totally 200 patients with varicosity of lower extremities who received exfoliation of great saphenous veins combined with transilluminated powered phlebectomy (TIPP) in a ClassⅢ Grade A hospital in Hebei Province from March 2016 to May 2017 by convenient sampling, and divided into the observation group (n=101) and the control group (n=99) according to the random number table. Patients in the observation group were evaluated with Caprini's DVT Assessment Model 24 hours before surgery. Patients who scored 3 or above received TEG monitoring 24 hours before surgery and on days 1, 3 and 7 post surgery, and received hierarchical interventions. Patients in the control group received conventional nursing care during the perioperative period, and empirical anticoagulation measures were taken based on the results of blood and coagulation routine examinations. Color Doppler ultrasonography was used to observe the incidence of DVT in both extremities in the patients one week post surgery, and the incidence of hemorrhage were also observed in patients in the two groups, including hemorrhage running out of dressings, incision bleeding and subcutaneous hematoma. Results DVT was found in 1 patient in the observation group (0.99%) and 8 patients in the control group (8.08%); hemorrhage running out of dressings was found in 3 patients in the observation group, incision bleeding in 2 patients and subcutaneous hematoma in 5 patients, while hemorrhage running out of dressings was found in 10 patients in the control group, incision bleeding in 9 patients and subcutaneous hematoma in 13 patients. There were statistical differences between the two groups (P<0.05). Conclusions TEG dynamic monitoring combined with Caprini's DVT Assessment Model used in hierarchical interventions for patients with varicosity of lower extremities who receive exfoliation of great saphenous veins combined with TIPP reduces the incidence of DVT and hemorrhage, effectively avoids adverse events postoperatively, and ensures the patients' safety.

Objective:To investigate the molecular mechanism of autophagy and apoptosis induced by ultrafine carbon black in human bronchial epithelial cells (BEAS-2B cells), and to study the intervention effect and mechanism of N-acetylcysteine (NAC) on ultrafine carbon black-induced oxidative damage in BEAS-2B cells.Methods:In March 2023, BEAS-2B cells were used as research object, an in vitro airway model exposed to ultrafine carbon black was constructed. A control group and three carbon black exposure groups (50, 100, 200 μg/ml) were set up, and the cells were treated with corresponding concentrations of ultrafine carbon black for 24 hours. In addition, the experiment was divided into control group, NAC+ control group, 100 μg/ml carbon black exposure group and NAC+ exposure group. The corresponding groups were treated with 2 mmol/L NAC for 1 h and 100 μg/ml ultrafine carbon black for 24 h, respectively. Cell viability was measured by CCK-8 assay. Intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) level was detected by chemical fluorescence method. The activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) and catalase (CAT), as well as the content of malondialdehyde (MDA) were detected by colorimetry. The mRNA and protein expressions of autophagy-related genes[Atg5, Atg7, Beclin1, microtubule-associated protein light chain 3B (LC3B), p62 and lysosome-associated membrane protein 2 (LAMP2) ] and apoptosis-related genes [B-cell lymphoma 2 (Bcl-2), Bcl-2-associated X protein (Bax), Caspase3, Caspase9 and poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP1) ] were determined by fluorescence quantitative PCR and Western blot. Cell apoptosis was determined by flow cytometry.Results:Compared with the control group, the relative survival rates of BEAS-2B cells in 50, 100, 200 μg/ml carbon black exposure groups were significantly decreased, the levels of ROS and MDA were significantly increased, and the activities of SOD, GSH-Px and CAT were significantly decreased ( P<0.05). The relative survival rate, ROS and MDA levels, SOD, GSH-Px and CAT activities were significantly correlated with the exposure dose of ultrafine carbon black ( rs=-0.755, 0.826, 0.934, -0.810, -0.880, -0.840, P<0.05). Compared with the control group, the relative expression levels of Atg5, Atg7, Beclin1, LC3B, p62, LAMP2, Bax, Caspase3, Caspase9, PARP1 mRNA and Atg5, Atg7, Beclin1, LC3BⅡ, p62, LAMP2, Bax, cleaved Caspase3 (C-Caspase3), cleaved Caspase9 (C-Caspase9), cleaved PARP1 (C-PARP1) protein and the ratio of LC3BⅡ/LC3BⅠ in 50, 100 and 200 μg/ml carbon black exposure groups were significantly increased, while the relative expression levels of Bcl-2 mRNA and protein were significantly decreased ( P<0.05). The changes of the above indexes were significantly correlated with the exposure dose of carbon black ( rs=0.892, 0.879, 0.944, 0.892, 0.828, 0.880, 0.814, 0.794, 0.931, 0.918, 0.813, 0.866, 0.774, 0.695, 0.918, 0.761, 0.794, 0.944, 0.833, 0.866, 0.905, -0.886, -0.748, P<0.05). Compared with 100 μg/ml carbon black exposure group, the relative survival rate, the activities of SOD, GSH-Px and CAT in NAC+exposure group were significantly increased, while the levels of ROS and MDA were significantly decreased, and the relative expression levels of LC3B, p62 and Caspase3 mRNA and protein as well as the ratio of LC3BⅡ/LC3BⅠ were significantly decreased, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). Compared with the control group, the apoptosis rates of BEAS-2B cells in 50, 100, 200 μg/ml carbon black exposure groups were significantly increased ( P<0.05), and there was a significant positive correlation between ultrafine carbon black exposure dose and cell apoptosis rate ( rs=0.944, P<0.05). While compared with 100 μg/ml carbon black exposure group, the apoptosis rate of NAC+exposure group was significantly decreased, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05) . Conclusion:Cell autophagy and apoptosis may be important pathophysiological mechanisms of ultrafine carbon black-induced oxidative damage in BEAS-2B cells. NAC can alleviate the occurrence of BEAS-2B cell damage caused by ultrafine carbon black by regulating oxidative stress and the cascading autophagy and apoptosis pathways.

OBJECTIVE To explore wheth er there is a relationship between the judgment results of medical damage liability disputes related to off-label drug use and evidence-based evidence. METHODS By searching for medical damage liability disputes related to off-label drug use up to 2021 on pkulaw.cn ,documents were extracted to record objective factors ,subjective factors and judgment results ;whether there was evidence-based evidence was judged according to Off-label Drug Use List and Evidence-based Evaluation Standards for Off-label Drug Use of Guangdong Pharmaceutical Association ;univariate analysis was adopted to test the relationship between the judgment results and evidence-based evidence. RESULTS A total of 57 cases were included. Cases mainly occurred in the eastern China (63.2%)and tertiary hospitals (64.9%),the main appraisal agency was the appraisal center or institute(61.4%),and the most common type of off-label drug use was overdose drug use (45.6%). Among the judgment results , 23 cases(40.4%)of off-label drug use had a causal relationship with medical damage ,most of the responsibility of doctors was secondary responsibility (28.1%),and the actual compensation amount of the most cases were less than 100,000 yuan(54.4%). There were 25 cases(43.9%)with evidence-based evidence. Univariate analysis found that for off-label drug use the claim amount of the case with evidence-based evidence was significantly higher than that of the case without evidence-based evidence (P= 0.040),and there was no significant correlation between evidence-based evidence and the actual compensation amount of the case (P=0.741),causality determination (P=0.256),liability type (P=0.598)or appraisal agency (P≥0.260). CONCLUSIONS There is no significant correlation between the judgment results of medical damage liability disputes related to off-label drug use and evidence-based evidence ,indicating that there may be certain differences between judicial trials and medical science. The off-label drug use should be regulated by establishing a complete off-label drug use management system and standardizing informed consent procedure for off-label drug use. 1610307322@pku.edu.cn
