The development of new media technologies and the proposal of Healthy China program have provided new technical support and policy endorsement for health services.At the same time, knowledge adaptability, service efficiency and cooperation mode are bringing forth challenges to traditional Chinese medicine(TCM) knowledge management. This study, citing the National famous doctor inheritance studios as an example, introduced the dimension of knowledge value into the knowledge management of TCM, constructed the cycle path of knowledge management, and analyzed the process of knowledge management, knowledge output and application, for the purposes of exploring the main reasons for the dilemma of knowledge sharing in the communities of National famous doctor inheritance studios.Finally, the paper put forward targeted measures in the following aspects: the creation of inheritance and innovation value chain, the expansion of social cooperation mode, the refinement of health service path and the integration of human resources. These measures aim to provide references for guiding the reform of TCM knowledge management and improving the value creation of TCM knowledge.

Objective To explore the survival/proliferation,apoptotic and death effects of keratinocyte growth factor (KGF) in alveolar epithelial type Ⅱ cells (AT Ⅱ Cs) exposed to hyperoxia.Methods Primary culture of AT Ⅱ Cs from the Sprague-Dawley rat fetuses was studied under room air condition (210 mL/L O2) and hyperoxic condition (950 mL/L O2) for 0.5-12.0 h.Various concentrations of KGF (15 μg/L,25 μg/L,50 μg/L,75 μg/L,100 μg/L)were added into the cell cultures.Cells were randomly divided into room-air group,room-air-KGF group,hyperoxic-exposure group and hyperoxic-exposure-KGF group.The levels of intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS),cleaved cysteinyl aspartate specific proteinase-3 (Caspase-3),cell death and proliferation of AT Ⅱ Cs were measured by flow cytometer,Western Blot,release of lactate dehydrogenase assays (LDH assays) and 3-(4,5-Dimethyhhiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyhetrazolium bromide assays (MTT assays),respectively.Results Under room air condition,KGF could significantly increase AT Ⅱ Cs proliferation with 15-100 μg/L in a dose-dependent manner and significantly decrease LDH production at concentrations of 25-100 μg/L.Exposure to hyperoxia resulted in a significant increase in intracellular ROS production in AT Ⅱ Cs in a time-dependent manner compared with that of the room air group.Cell viability decreased and LDH release increased significantly in a time-dependent manner when AT Ⅱ Cs were exposed to 950 mL/L O2 for more than 4 h.After exposure to hyperoxia for 0.5 h and 1 h,KGF could significantly increase AT Ⅱ Cs proliferation in 15-75 μ g/L and significantly decrease LDH production at concentrations of 25-75 μg/L.After exposure to hyperoxia up to 4 h,higher viability was observed in 15 μg/L and 25 μg/L KGF group,and lower death rate presented in 25-100 μg/L KGF group.Further,prolnged hyperoxic exposure for 8 h,high viabilitv was shown only in 50 μg/L KGF group,and less death rate was observed only in 75 μg/L KGF group.In addition,no significant difference in viability and mortality was found between hyperoxic group and hyperoxic-KGF group after hyperoxic exposure for 12 h.Expression of cleaved Caspase-3 was significant higher after 4 h and 8 h hyperoxic exposure than that in room-air group ;at the same time,by adding 25 μg/L and 75.μg/L KGF led to decreased expression of Caspase-3 was detected,compared to hyperoxic group.Conclusions KGF may promote survival/proliferation,inhibited apoptosis and death of rat fetal AT Ⅱ Cs in room air condition or under temporary exposure to hyperoxia in vitro.However,prolonged exposure to hyperoxia may decrease the sensitivity of AEC Ⅱ Cs to KGF and limit its protective effects on lung injury.

Objective To study phylogenies, epidemiology and genetic environment of CTX-M type of ESBLs produced by Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae isolated from nine hospitals in Guangzhou. Methods The phylogenies of CTX-M type of ESBLs were analyzed by PCR Genetic environment of CTX-M-15 encoding gene (bla_(CTX-M-15)) were investigated by conjugation test and plasmid analysis. The clonal relationship of strains producing CTX-M-15 was determined by enterobacterial repetitive intergenic consensus PCR (ERIC-PCR). Results A total of 361 ESBLs-producing isolates of Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae were collected. 67.3% of ESBLs strains were detected to produce CTX-M-type ESBLs, and the commonest genotypes in Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae were CTX-M-14 (35.4% and 28.3%), CTX-M-15(21.5% and 26.1%) EBIC-PCR products of all CTX-M-15-producing strains show 39 strains of Escherichia coli were classified into 27 genotypes while 43 strains of Klebsiella pneumoniae were divided into 30 genotypes. Furthermore, the genotypes of CTX-M-55, CTX-M-19, CTX-M-27, with ceftazidime-hydrelyzing activity, were detected in this study. The great majority of bla_(CTX-M-15) genes were found to locate on a 65 000 bp-conjugative plasmid, and there was no blaTEM-1, bla_(OXA-1), blaDSA-1 or aac (6')-Ib-cr gene coexisted on the plasmid, ISEcp1-like insertion sequences, relative to mobilization of bla_(CTX-M-15) gene, were detected in all bla_(CTX-M-15) positive strains, and the distances between the end of ISEcp1-like insertion sequences and the start cedon of bla_(CTX-M-15) were equal, with 48 base pairs. Conclusion CTX-M-14 is still the most common genotype of ESBLs in Guangzhou, but high prevalence of CTX-M-15 ESBLs hydrolyzing ceftazidime already appears in south China.

Objective:To retrieve, summarize, evaluate and integrate the best evidence for the prevention and management of center venous catheter dysfunction in hemodialysis patients.Methods:The relevant literature on prevention of center venous catheter dysfunction in hemodialysis patients was systematically searched in UpToDate, BMJ Best Practice, Cochrane Library, National Guideline Clearinghouse, Guidelines International Network, National Kidney Foundation, PubMed, CNKI and other databases, including guidelines, clinical decision-making, evidence summary, systematic evaluation and expert consensus. The search period was from January 1st, 2013 to March 1st, 2023. Two researchers independently evaluated the quality of the literature, evaluated the quality of the included literature and extracted evidence.Results:A total of 15 articles were included, including three guidelines, three clinical decision-making, five expert consensus, two systematic evaluations, one evidence summary and one government document. Ultimately, seven themes and 32 best evidence were formed, including personnel training and management, evaluation and monitoring, catheter insertion, catheter maintenance, drug prevention, catheter dysfunction management and health education.Conclusions:This study summarizes the best evidence for the prevention and management of center venous catheter dysfunction in hemodialysis patients. Medical staff can choose and apply this evidence-based basis based on clinical situations and patient preferences, thereby reducing the incidence of catheter dysfunction.

Objective:To explore the risk factors for central venous catheter (CVC) dysfunction in hemodialysis patients, construct a risk prediction model, and verify the model's predictive performance.Methods:The retrospective research method was adopted. From January 2021 to August 2023, convenience sampling was used to select 442 patients who underwent hemodialysis by CVC at the First Hospital of Shanxi Medical University, Shanxi Provincial People's Hospital, and Shanxi Bethune Hospital as the study subjects. Patients were divided into a modeling group ( n=309) and a validation group ( n=133) according to the order of time of CVC. The modeling group was divided into groups based on whether patients experienced catheter dysfunction. Multivariate Logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of hemodialysis catheter dysfunction and construct a nomogram model. The model's predictive performance was evaluated using the calibration curve, area under the receiver operating characteristic curve ( AUC), and the Hosmer Lemeshow goodness of fit test. Results:Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that history of thrombosis, blood hypercoagulability, catheterization site, catheter-related infection, and catheterization duration were influencing factors for catheter dysfunction in hemodialysis ( OR=5.119, 5.174, 6.362, 2.913, and 5.353; all P<0.05). The above five factors were used as independent variables to construct a nomogram. Internal validation of the model showed that the Hosmer Lemeshow test was χ 2=10.828, P=0.212, and AUC was 0.837 [95% confidence interval (0.781, 0.893) ], and the calibration curve fitted well with the ideal curve. External validation of the model indicated that the Hosmer Lemeshow test was χ 2=1.944, P=0.925, and AUC was 0.825 [95% confidence interval (0.744, 0.906) ], and the calibration curve almost coincided with the ideal curve. Conclusions:The constructed nomogram can predict the risk of catheter dysfunction in hemodialysis patients and provide a reference for nursing staff to develop corresponding interventions.

We report a case of cutaneous and subcutaneous phaeohyphomycosis caused by Exophiala jeanselmei after renal transplantation in Guangdong. A 66-year-old man who had a renal transplantation 6 years ago was admitted in October 2011 for the presence of 16 nodules (0.5-1.5 cm) found on his right middle finger, wrist and forearm for 5 months. Microscopic examination of the purulent exudate showed segmented and branched brown mycelium, and tissue biopsy and PAS staining showed fungal hyphae. The isolate was processed for morphological identification and molecular sequence analysis. A black colony was found after culture of the isolate on SDA at 26 degrees Celsius;, and small culture identified the isolate as Exophiala jeanselmei. ITS sequence analysis of the isolate showed a 100% homology with Exophiala jeanselmei. E-test strip was used in drug sensitivity test, and the isolate was sensitive to amphotericin B, voriconazole, itraconazole and fluconazole, but resistant to 5-flucytosine and caspofungin. Good response was obtained with surgical intervention, local injection and systemic antifungal treatment.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the effect and mechanism of dihydroartemisinin(DHA)on lipo-polysaccharide(LPS)-induced acute lung injury(ALI)in mice using whole-genome sequencing.METHODS An ALI mouse model was established via intraperitoneal injection of 10 mg·kg-1 lipopolysaccharide.The mice were divided into normal control group(n=10),model group(n=10)and model+DHA group(n=10).The mice in the model+DHA group were injected intraperitoneally with 20 mg·kg-1 DHA,while those in the normal control group and LPS group were injected intraperitoneally with solvent of DHA,saline containing 1%Tween 80 and 10%Macrogol 400.The mice were executed 24 h after drug administration.The wet and dry weight ratio(W/D)of lung tissue was calculated.Hematoxylin-eosin(HE)staining was used to observe histopathological damage in the lung.Classified counts of inflamma-tory cells in alveolar lavage fluid were performed.Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA)was used to detect the levels of interleukin-1β(IL-1β),IL-6,and tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)in alveolar lavage fluid.Real-time quantitative PCR(RT-qPCR)was used to detect mRNA levels of placenta-specific 8(Plac8),Toll-like receptor 7(TLR7),IL-1β,IL-6 and TNF-αin lung tissue.The whole gene transcriptome was sequenced by RNA transcriptome sequencing(RNA-seq)using the Illumina HiSeq high-throughput sequencing platform before the function and signal pathway of differentially expressed gene mRNA between the groups were enriched and analyzed using GO and KEGG enrichment analysis methods.RESULTS Compared with the model group,the lung W/D values of mice,the pathological damage,inflammatory cells in alveolar lavage fluid,expression levels of IL-1β,IL-6 and TNF-α in alveolar lavage fluid(P<0.01,P<0.01,P<0.01),and the mRNA expression levels of IL-1β,IL-6 and TNF-α were significantly reduced in lung tissues in the model+DHA group(P<0.01,P<0.05,P<0.05).Whole gene transcriptome sequencing revealed that immune-related Plac8 and TLR7 genes were significantly upregu-lated(P<0.01)in mouse lung tissue of the model group but significantly downregulated(P<0.05)in mouse lung tissue of the model+DHA group.The results of RT-qPCR of Plac8 and TLR7 verified the results of whole gene transcriptome sequencing.GO and KEGG analysis showed that Plac8 and TLR7 were mainly related to the regulation of cytokine production,T/B cell activation and signal transduction,chemo-kine signal transduction and NF-κB signal transduction.CONCLUSION DHA might reduce LPS-induced lung damage and ameliorate the inflammatory condition in lungs of ALI mice.The mechanism of action may be that DHA negatively regulates the signaling pathways involved in TLR7 and Plac8 by decreasing the expressions of TLR7 and Plac8 mRNA before regulating a series of immune responses such as secretion of inflammation-related cytokines and activation of immune cells,thereby reducing inflam-matory damage in lungs.

AIM: To investigate the efficacy and safety of ZKY001 eye drops with different concentrations in the treatment of corneal epithelial defects(CED)after primary pterygium excision.METHODS: This was a multicenter, randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled phase II clinical trial. From March 15, 2022 to November 14, 2022, patients with primary pterygium who had undergone surgery were recruited from 12 tertiary hospitals across China. Using block randomization, 178 patients(178 eyes)were randomly assigned to 3 groups in a 1:1:1 ratio: 0.002% ZKY001 group(n=59), 0.004% ZKY001 group(n=59), and placebo group(n=60, receiving ZKY001 sham eye drops). Subjects in each group received 1 drop of the study drug 4 times per day for 4 d. The percentage of CED area recovery from baseline, the first complete healing time of CED area, the number of first complete healing cases of CED, and changes in visual analogue scale(VAS)scores for eye discomfort including eye pain, foreign body sensation, tearing and photophobia were observed.RESULTS: In terms of improvement in CED, there were no statistically significant differences among the three groups including the first healing time of CED, the percentage improvement in CED area compared to baseline, and the percentage of first healing cases at different follow-up visits(all P>0.05). Numerically, the first healing time of CED was shorter in the test groups compared to the placebo group(67.87±21.688 h for the 0.002% ZKY001 group, 61.48±22.091 h for the 0.004% ZKY001 group, and 68.85±20.851 h for the placebo group). On D1 morning, the percentage improvement in CED area compared to baseline was maximally different from the placebo group, and the numerical difference advantage was maintained at subsequent follow-up visits. The number of first healing cases in the CED area at different follow-up visits was higher in the test groups than the placebo group. In terms of improvement in ocular discomfort, the total VAS scores were lower in the test groups compared to the placebo group, mainly due to reductions in foreign body sensation and pain scores. At D3, the 0.004% ZKY001 group showed statistically significant improvement in foreign body sensation(P<0.017). In terms of safety, the overall incidence of adverse events was low(9.0%)and similar among groups.CONCLUSION: The use of ZKY001 eyedrops after primary pterygium surgery can safely improve the CED repair, and alleviate postoperative symptoms caused by CED.
