Objective To explore the correlation of MPV,NLR,PT,APTT and FIB with early pro-gression of ACI in patients with BAD.Methods A total of 303 ACI patients with BAD admitted in our department of neurology from October 2021 to September 2023 were consecutively recrui-ted,and according to their progression within 7 d of onset,they were divided into progression group(89 cases)and un-progression group(214 cases).The general clinical data,blood routine re-lated indicators(MPV,NLR)and coagulation related indicators(PT,APTT,FIB)were compared between the two groups.Multivariate logistic regression analysis was applied to identify the rela-tionship of above indicators with early progression of ACI in BAD patients.ROC curve was plot-ted to analyze the predictive value of the indictors for disease progression in these patients.Results The progression group had significantly advanced age,larger proportions of diabetes,hyperlipi-demia and stroke history,and increased levels of uric acid,LDL-C,homocysteine,MPV,platelet distribution width,NLR,D-dimer and FIB,and shorter TT,PT and APTT when compared with the un-progressed group(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that MPV,NLR,PT,APTT,and FIB were all independent influencing factors for early disease pro-gression of ACI in patients with BAD(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).ROC curve indicated that the AUC value of combined MPV,NLR,PT,APTT and FIB in detecting early disease progression was 0.859(95％CI:0.813-0.905).Conclusion Blood routine(MPV,NLR)and coagulation related indicators(PT,APTT,FIB)are closely associated with the early disease progression of ACI in BAD patients,and these indicators are of high value in predicting the early disease progression.

Objective:To establish a xenograft model of cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (CSCC) in nude mice, and to explore mechanisms underlying synergistic induction and promotion of CSCC in nude mice by ultraviolet radiation and human papillomavirus (HPV) infection.Methods:The human CSCC A431 cells were divided into 3 groups, namely HPV16 E6 overexpression group (LV-OE-HPV16 E6 group) transfected with adenovirus-mediated HPV16 E6 gene, empty vector group transfected with empty adenovirus vectors, and blank control group remaining untransfected. Using serum-free Dulbecco′s modified Eagle′s medium (DMEM) , A431 cells in the empty vector group and LV-OE-HPV16 E6 group were prepared into single-cell suspensions, which were subcutaneously inoculated into the left buttocks of SKH-1 nude mice separately, namely empty vector group ( n = 16) and LV-OE-HPV16 E6 group ( n = 16) . Tumor growth was observed and recorded for the mice every 3 days. When the tumor size reached 150 mm 3, the modeling was considered successful. After successful modeling, 8 mice in each group were irradiated with ultraviolet light at a dose of 1 440 mJ·cm -2·d -1 for 12 minutes each time, the other 8 mice in each group received no ultraviolet radiation, that is to say, all the 32 mice were divided into 4 groups: empty vector group, empty vector + UV group, LV-OE-HPV16 E6 group, and LV-OE-HPV16 E6 + UV group. After 4-week radiation, these nude mice were sacrificed, tumor weight and volume were measured, a tumor growth curve was drawn, immunohistochemistry study, Western blot analysis and real-time fluorescence-based quantitative PCR (qRT-PCR) were conducted to determine the protein and mRNA expression of Wnt1 and β-catenin in CSCC tissues collected from nude mice, respectively. For normally distributed measurement data, analysis of variance was used for intergroup comparisons, and least significant difference- t test for multiple comparisons; for non-normally distributed measurement data, rank sum test was used for intergroup comparisons. Results:Compared with the empty vector group (2.20 ± 0.24 g) , the tumor weight significantly increased in the empty vector + UV group (2.90 ± 0.36 g, t = 4.39, P < 0.001) , LV-OE-HPV16 E6 group (3.19 ± 0.32 g, t = 6.77, P < 0.001) , and LV-OE-HPV16 E6 + UV group (4.41 ± 0.18 g, t = 20.11, P < 0.001) ; the tumor volume was also significantly higher in the empty vector + UV group (1 033.12 ± 400.15 mm 3, t = 1.90, P < 0.001) , LV-OE-HPV16 E6 group (1 119.21 ± 447.57 mm 3, t = 2.21, P < 0.001) , and LV-OE-HPV16 E6 + UV group (1 464.29 ± 409.98 mm 3, t = 4.22, P < 0.001) than in the empty vector group (688.94 ± 319.31 mm 3) . Immunohistochemical study showed no significant difference in the protein expression of Wnt1 and β-catenin among the 4 groups ( F = 0.76, 0.71, respectively, both P > 0.05) ; Western blot analysis showed significant differences in the protein expression levels of Wnt1 and β-catenin among the 4 groups ( F = 16.74, 49.90, respectively, both P < 0.05) , which were significantly higher in the LV-OE-HPV16 E6 + UV group than in the empty vector group, empty vector + UV group and LV-OE-HPV16 E6 group (all P < 0.05) . qRT-PCR showed a significant difference in the mRNA expression of Wnt1 and β-catenin among the 4 groups ( F = 7.77, 8.38, respectively, both P<0.05) , and the LV-OE-HPV16 E6 + UV group showed significantly increased Wnt1 mRNA expression levels compared with the empty vector group, empty vector + UV group and LV-OE-HPV16 E6 group (all P < 0.05) . Conclusion:Ultraviolet radiation and HPV infection showed synergistic effect on the induction and promotion of CSCC.

Protein polypeptides are a class of bioactive substances that play a crucial role in maintaining the stability of various functions of the organism.Rapid and accurate detection of their levels could help in the diagnosis of diseases,the monitoring of drug therapy and the research and development of medicines,which is of great significance in the fields of clinical medicine,biology and pharmacy.Conventional protein polypeptides detection methods,such as Western blotting and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay,still have problems like low sensitivity or difficulty in determining more than 1 analyte simultaneously.Liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry(LC-MS)has the advantages of specificity,sensitivity and high throughput.However,low ionization efficiency of macromolecules and strong biological matrix effects limit the feasibility of direct detection of protein polypeptides by LC-MS,which has led to the development of signal conversion and amplification strategies based on LC-MS technology.In this review,we summarized the research progress of sample pretreatment methods and signal conversion and amplification strategies for quantification of protein polypeptides in vivo based on LC-MS in recent years,providing a reference for developing specific high-sensitivity detection methods for low-abundance protein polypeptides in complex samples based on LC-MS technology.

Objective To explore the role of pharmaceutical care in the treatment of patients with pulmonary infection secondary to suppurative thrombophlebitis. Methods The treatment of a patient diagnosed with pulmonary metastatic infection secondary to suppurative thrombophlebitis and the whole process of clinical pharmacists participating in the monitoring were analyzed retrospectively. The use of antibiotics was evaluated, and the experience of coagulation management in suppurative thrombophlebitis was explored. Results Based on the infection site, characteristics of septic thrombus, monitoring of vancomycin blood concentration, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics characteristics of antibiotics, clinical pharmacists provided comprehensive pharmaceutical services for clinicians and patients in terms of anti-infection scheme adjustment, optimization of vancomycin individualized treatment, anticoagulant timing. Patient’s systemic infection and septic thrombus can be effectively controlled and which promotes the treatment of patients with suppurative thrombophlebitis. Conclusion Clinical pharmacists can play an important role in the treatment team of severe patients to improve the rational use of antibiotics.

Objective To observe the changes of plasma gastrointestinal hormones in motion sickness sensitive and insensitive individuals before and after vertical oscillation stimulation,and to construct a susceptibility prediction model for motion sickness.Methods A total of 60 healthy male volunteers were enrolled to receive sinusoidal vertical oscillation stimulation for 45 min.The motion sickness susceptibility questionnaire(MSSQ)was filled out before the experiment.Immediately after motion,the severity of motion sickness was evaluated by Graybiel scale.The motion sickness sensitive(Graybiel score≥8 and MSSQ susceptibility index＞21,n=15)and insensitive(Graybiel score≤2 and MSSQ susceptibility index＜5,n=15)participants were screened.Plasma levels of glucagon-like peptide-1(GLP-1),cholecystokinin(CCK),leptin,ghrelin,neuropeptide Y(NPY)and orexin A(OXA)were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay before and after vertical oscillation stimulation.Logistic regression model was used to analyze the predictive effect of plasma gastrointestinal hormone levels on susceptibility to motion sickness,and a combined predictive model was established.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was used to analyze predictive value of the model.Results Ghrelin and CCK levels were significantly increased in the sensitive group after stimulation compared with those before stimulation(both P＜0.01),while NPY and leptin levels were significantly decreased(both P＜0.01).Similar results were also observed when compared with the insensitive group after stimulation.Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that plasma ghrelin,CCK and NPY were independent predictors of susceptibility to motion sickness.The established susceptibility prediction model for motion sickness was logit(P)=-0.051 ×ghrelin+0.060× NPY-0.169 ×CCK+33.397.ROC curve analysis showed that area under curve(AUC)value of the prediction model was 0.988,the sensitivity and specificity were 100.0％and 93.3％,respectively,and the prediction effect was better than ghrelin,CCK and NPY alone(AUC=0.792,0.880,0.838).Conclusion The changes of peripheral gastrointestinal appetite regulating hormone levels may be related to the susceptibility to motion sickness.The combined use of these indicators can predict the susceptibility to motion sickness.

Objective To investigate the role of clinical pharmacists in identifying adverse drug reactions (ADR), to draw clinical attention to the possibility of drug-induced lung injury caused by rhG-CSF, and distinguish them from infectious diseases. Methods A case of rhG-CSF induced acute lung injury was analyzed. After analyzing the relationship between rhG-CSF and acute eosinophilic pneumonia, exploring the possible mechanism, in combination with the patient's condition, the clinical pharmacist put forward the suggestion for the treatment of the disease. Results After receiving rhG-CSF, the patient's eosinophils increased, the pneumonia was aggravated, and the effect of anti-infection treatment was poor. Eosinophils pneumonia associated with rhG-CSF was considered. The patient's pulmonary symptoms improved after treatment with glucocorticoid in combination with withdrawal of antibiotics and antiviral drugs, and eosinophil returned to normal. Conclusion rhG- can cause rare eosinophilic pneumonia. The clinical pharmacist's participation in clinical treatment can help to identify drug-induced diseases, reorient the direction of treatment and ensure the success of clinical therapy.
