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.

Hip fracture in the elderly is characterized by high incidence, high disability rate, and high mortality and has been recognized as a public health issue threatening their health. Surgery is the preferred choice for the treatment of elderly patients with hip fracture. However, lower extremity deep venous thrombosis (DVT) has an extremely high incidence rate during the perioperative period, and may significantly increase the risk of patients′ death once it progresses to pulmonary embolism. In response to this issue, the clinical guidelines and expert consensuses all emphasize active application of comprehensive preventive measures, including basic prevention, physical prevention, and pharmacological prevention. In this prevention system, basic prevention is the basis of physical and pharmacological prevention. However,there is a lack of unified and definite recommendations for basic preventive measures in clinical practice. To this end, the Orthopedic Nursing Professional Committee of the Chinese Nursing Association and Nursing Department of the Orthopedic Branch of the China International Exchange and Promotive Association for Medical and Health Care organized relevant nursing experts to formulate Expert consensus on perioperative basic prevention for lower extremity deep venous thrombosis in elderly patients with hip fracture ( version 2024) . A total of 10 recommendations were proposed, aiming to standardize the basic preventive measures for lower extremity DVT in elderly patients with hip fractures during the perioperative period and promote their subsequent rehabilitation.

Hip fracture is considered as the most severe osteoporotic fracture characterized by high disability and mortality in the elderly. Improved surgical techniques and multidisciplinary team play an active role in alleviating prognosis, which places higher demands on perioperative nursing. Dysfunction, complications, and secondary impact of anaesthesia and surgery add more difficulties to clinical nursing. Besides, there still lack clinical practices in perioperative nursing for elderly patients with hip fracture in China. In this context, led by the Orthopedic Nursing Committee of Chinese Nursing Association, the Expert consensus on clinical practice in perioperative nursing for elderly patients with hip fracture ( version 2023) is developed based on the evidence-based medicine. This consensus provides 11 recommendations on elderly patients with hip fracture from aspects of perioperative health education, condition monitoring and inspection, complication risk assessment and prevention, and rehabilitation, in order to provide guiding advices for clinical practice, improve the quality of nursing and ameliorate the prognosis of elderly patients with hip fracture.

Hip fractures are among the most common fractures in the elderly, presenting to be a leading cause of disability and mortality. Surgical treatment is currently the main treatment method for hip fractures. The incidence of perioperative malnutrition is increased after hip fractures in the elderly due to the comorbidities, decreased basal metabolic rate, accelerated protein breakdown, weakened anabolism and surgical stress. However, malnutrition not only increases the incidence of postoperative complications, but also leads to increased mortality, indicating an important role of perioperative nursing management of nutrition for the elderly patients with hip fractures. At present, there still lacks scientific guidance and application standards on perioperative nursing management of nutrition for the elderly patients with hip fractures. Therefore, the Orthopedic Nursing Committee of Chinese Nursing Association and the Editorial Board of Chinese Journal of Trauma organized relevant experts to formulate the Expert consensus on perioperative nursing management of nutrition for elderly patients with hip fractures ( version 2023) according to evidence-based medical evidences and their clinical experiences. Fourteen recommendations were made from aspects of nutrition screening, nutrition assessment, nutrition diagnosis, nutrition intervention and nutrition monitoring to provide guidance for perioperative nursing management of nutrition in elderly patients with hip fractures.

Objective:To identify the risk factors of heart failure in elderly patients with hip fracture by Meta-analysis.Methods:The clinical studies on perioperative heart failure in elderly patients with hip fracture were searched by computer in Pubmed, EMbase, Cochrane Library, Medline, Web of Science, CNKI, CBM, Wanfang and VIP database. The retrieval period was from the establishment of the databases to October 2021. The literature screening, data extraction and quality evaluation were completed by two researchers, and the selected literature were statistically analyzed by RevMan5.3 software.Results:A total of 17 articles were included in this study, involving 1 76 611 patients and 24 related risk factors. Cardiac history ( OR= 4.47, 95% CI 3.56-5.62), positive balance of perioperative inflow and outflow ( OR=5.99, 95% CI 3.30-10.87), anemia ( OR= 3.78, 95% CI 2.50-5.69), and the number of complications >4 ( OR=6.21, 95% CI 3.71-10.38), electrolyte disorder ( OR=7.40, 95% CI 3.77-14.54), preoperative cognitive impairment ( OR=3.60, 95% CI 1.39-9.31) and American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) grade ≥ 3 ( OR= 4.73, 95% CI 2.73-8.12) were statistically significant risk factors ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Cardiac history, positive balance of perioperative inflow and outflow, anemia, number of complications >4, electrolyte disorder, preoperative cognitive impairment and ASA grade ≥3 were the risk factors of perioperative heart failure in elderly patients with hip fracture.

Background and Objectives: Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory skin disease, which the mechanisms behind its initiation and development are related to many factors. DMSCs (dermal mesenchymal stem cells) represent an important member of the skin microenvironment and play an important role in the surrounding environment and in neighbouring cells, but they are also affected by the microenvironment. We studied the glucose metabolism of DMSCs in psoriasis patients and a control group to reveal the relationship among glucose metabolism, cell proliferation activity，and VEC (vascular endothelial cell) differentiation in vitro, we demonstrated the biological activity and molecular mechanisms of DMSCs in psoriasis. Methods: and Results: We found that the OCR of DMSCs in psoriatic lesions was higher than that in the control group, and mRNA of GLUT1 and HK2 were up-regulated compared with the control group. The proliferative activity of DMSCs in psoriasis was reduced at an early stage, and mRNA involved in proliferation, JUNB and FOS were expressed at lower levels than those in the control group. The number of blood vessels in psoriatic lesions was significantly higher than that in the control group (p＜0.05), which the mRNA of VEC differentiation, CXCL12, CXCR7, HEYL and RGS5 tended to be increased in psoriatic lesions compared to the control group, in addition to Notch3. Conclusions We speculated that DMSCs affected local psoriatic blood vessels through glucose metabolism, and the differentiation of VECs, which resulted in the pathophysiological process of psoriasis.

Objective To investigate the feasibility of diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) for differentia-tion of small cell lung cancer (SCLC) and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) at 3.0 T MRI. This study also aims to optimize b values. Methods Thirty-six patients with lung cancer proved by pathology were examined by T2WI and DWI (b = 400, 600 and 800 s/mm2) and apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) values of each lesion were calculated among different b values. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were used to calcu-late the difference between the ADC of SCLC and NSCLC and to evaluate the diagnostic capability. Analysis of variance was used to determine difference in ADC of NSCLC histological types at the optimal b values. Results The ADC values of SCLC and NSCLC decreased with increasing b values , and the differences were statistically significant (P = 0.002, P < 0.001). ROC analysis showed that the area under curve (AUC) values were 0.775、0.892、0.804 (b = 400, 600, 800 s/mm2, respectively). The AUC with a b value of 600 s/mm2 was the largest. When an ADC of 1.296 × 10-3 mm2/s was considered as a threshold, the sensitivity, and specificity were 76.9%, and 90.0%, respectively. Conclusion DWI reflects the diffusion motion of water protons in lung carcinoma and it has moderate diagnosis potency in differentiating SCLC and NSCLC. The optimal b value is 600 s/mm 2.

OBJECTIVETo summarize the disposal methods and the reasons of complications in operation of totally implantable central venous port (TICVP).

METHODSA total of 2 007 patients were enrolled in this observational, single-center study between December 2008 and March 2013. TICVP implantation was performed with one small skin incision and subcutaneous puncture of subclavian or jugular vein. Patient's profiles, indications of port system, early and delayed complications, and disposal methods were evaluated. There were 38 male and 1 969 female patients, aged from 21 to 85 years, with a mean of 47.6 years.

RESULTSThe mean duration of the TICVP system was (242 ± 12) days, ranging from 9 to 1 243 days. The achievement rate of puncture in the right jugular vein (99.76%) was the highest. Sonographic approach using the internal jugular vein were better than the external landmark-guided technique (99.80% vs. 96.34%, χ² = 29.905, P = 0.000). The rate of immediate complication was 0.80%, which included pneumothorax, hemothorax, lymphatic fistula and thrombosis. Early complications rate was 0.10%, which included pocket hematoma, catheter migration, venous thrombosis, port pocket infection, fibrin sheath formation. Late complications rate was 7.87%, which included catheter fracture, pinch-off syndrome, catheter-related bloodstream infection, fibrin sheath formation, catheter migration, extravasation, port inversion and port reveal. The rate of removal due to complications was 1.34% (27/2 007), and the early complication was higher (χ² = 8.053, P = 0.011).

CONCLUSIONSThe low incidence of complications suggests that TICVP is safe and reliable for long term intermittent venous access. The results support the use of TICVP in the oncology patients and patients requiring long-term intravenous therapy.

Anti-angiogenesis therapies have emerged as new treatment strategies for several types of tumors. To date, the most studied programs are to find out effective medicines to block the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) signaling pathway. However, VEGF inhibitors are not effective to all kinds of tumors.Thus there is a need to explore other angiogenesis signaling pathways. Recently, the Dll4-Notch pathway was identified as a new target in tumor angiogenesis. Moreover, an important feature in angiogenesis is the manifold ways in which the VEGF and Dll4-Notch pathways interact each other, which play critical roles in tumor angiogenesis. Therefore, the further exploration of these two pathways will provide more therapies for clinic to treat tumors.
