Based on the theoretical reflection on the reflective function of medical records,the important findings in the practice of medical records writing in the field of palliative care,and conceptual analysis of narrative medicine tools,combined with empirical investigation materials and analysis,this paper focused on the practice of medical records writing for reflection and research.The main contents include defining the concept of narrative medical records,which are medical records used in clinical practice that incorporate narrative content;clarifying their characteristics and functions at different levels;and exploring practical paths for their application in clinical practice.Based on an in-depth exploration of the uniqueness of narrative medicine practice at Peking Union Medical College,it also emphasized the necessity of writing medical records with narrative thinking.Specifically,it focused on using narrative thinking and forms to enhance the improvement of current medical records writing,and further sought a general framework and multiple possibilities for narrative medicine clinical pathways.

With the process of China’s aging population intensifying， palliative care， as an important guarantee for improving the quality of life of terminally ill patients， is receiving more and more social attention， and the demand is constantly increasing. Palliative care needs versatile professionals， and general education can enhance people’s awareness and understanding of it， enabling more people to understand， accept， and participate in palliative care. With the advancement of knowledge and technology in palliative care， the traditional cramming education models are no longer able to meet the actual needs. Therefore， there is an urgent need to innovate palliative care education strategies. By analyzing the current problems in the general education of palliative care in China， this paper proposed thoughts and suggestions for general and innovative education of palliative care in several aspects， such as establishing general and innovative education systems and evaluation systems of palliative care， diversifying educational contents and methods， strengthening medical staffs training， promoting diversified student groups， and strengthening the popularization of palliative care knowledge among the public.

Objective:To investigate the relationship between thyroid autoimmunity and pregnancy outcome in patients with unexplained recurrent abortion.Methods:A retrospective cohort study of 354 patients with normal thyroid function with recurrent abortion of unknown cause admitted to Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hospital, Sun Yat-sen University from January 2015 to June 2022 was used to detect thyroid antibody and thyroid function levels during pregnancy or early pregnancy. They were divided into TAI group ( n=144) and non-TAI group ( n=210) according to whether thyroid autoimmunity (TAI) was complicated or not. Tracking pregnancy outcomes. Results:Compared with the non-TAI group, the TAI group had a higher proportion of pregnancy outcomes resulting in miscarriage [42.4%(61/144) vs 27.1%(57/210), P=0.004]. In patients with unexplained recurrent abortion, TAI significantly increased the risk of spontaneous abortion [ OR(95% CI): 2.13(1.34, 3.41), P=0.001]. Positive TPOAb or TgAb also increased the risk of spontaneous abortion [ OR(95% CI): 2.18(1.37, 3.50), P=0.001; OR(95% CI): 2.33(1.31, 4.13), P=0.004]. TAI, TPOAb and TgAb had no significant interaction with age ( P=0.482, 0.724, 0.740). Conclusions:TAI is positively associated with the risk of spontaneous abortion in patients with unexplained recurrent abortion. TAI may be a potential risk factor for unexplained recurrent abortion, expanding the diagnosis and treatment of unexplained recurrent abortion.

Objective:This study focuses on the use of narrative medical records in palliative care teams and analyzes text from cases.The goal is to establish a foundation for standardizing and structuring narrative content, providing guidance for incorporating future narratives into medical record writing.Methods:Three cases of narrative medical records from the palliative care team at Peking Union Medical College Hospital were chosen for text analysis to demonstrate the clinical significance of narrative medical records within palliative care teams.These records included medical consultation records, social work service records, and disease progress records, authored by nurses, social workers, and doctors, respectively.Results:Our study discovered that narrative medical records demonstrate traits such as structured writing, cooperative writing, and comprehensive documentation.Furthermore, the narrative information contained in these records can be efficiently organized and condensed.Conclusions:By examining the cases and utilization of narrative medical records in the healthcare community, we emphasize the potential benefits of incorporating narrative elements into existing medical documentation.These results offer valuable insights for enhancing medical education in the future.

Specific tumor-targeted gene delivery remains an unsolved therapeutic issue due to aberrant vascularization in tumor microenvironment (TME). Some bacteria exhibit spontaneous chemotaxis toward the anaerobic and immune-suppressive TME, which makes them ideal natural vehicles for cancer gene therapy. Here, we conjugated ZIF-8 metal-organic frameworks encapsulating eukaryotic murine interleukin 2 (Il2) expression plasmid onto the surface of VNP20009, an attenuated Salmonella typhimurium strain with well-documented anti-cancer activity, and constructed a TME-targeted Il2 delivery system named Il2/ZIF-8@Salmonella. Both in vitro and in vivo experiments demonstrated that Il2/ZIF-8@Salmonella maintained the tumor-targeting feature of bacteria, and could be effectively phagocytosed by intratumoral macrophages, thus leading to the expression and secretion of IL2 in TME. The detailed analysis of tumor immune microenvironment (TIME) showed that one dose of combinatorial Il2/ZIF-8@Salmonella achieved synergistic actions on a potent remodeling of TIME, marked by the activation of cytotoxic T cells and M1-polarization of macrophages in TME, thus leading to significant anti-tumor effects in melanoma, orthotopic hepatocellular carcinoma, and pulmonary metastasis models. More importantly, Il2/ZIF-8@Salmonella exhibited high safety to major organs and hematopoietic systems. Taken together, we report a novel plasmid/ZIF-8@Salmonella system that simultaneously achieves effective TME-targeted delivery of therapeutic gene, as well as synergistic re-activation of TIME.

The incidence rate of chronic hepatitis B remains high in China. Antiviral therapy can significantly reduce the risk of progressive liver disease and hepatocellular carcinoma in patients with chronic hepatitis B. However, all current antiviral treatments can only inhibit HBV replication and not completely eliminate the hepatitis B virus, so antiviral therapy for chronic hepatitis B is probably a long-term or even lifelong treatment. Antiviral therapy compliance is essential for achieving long-term clinical benefits and preventing nucleot(s)ide drugs resistance. Herein, we analyzed the relevant factors of antiviral therapy compliance and their impact on CHB treatment and explored feasible programs that can improve compliance with nucleot(s)ide drug treatment by conducting a literature search using PubMed and Scopus with search terms including hepatitis B, compliance, nucleot(s)ide drugs, antiviral therapy, viral suppression, and drug resistance.

Thoracentesis is common in daily medical practice. During the operation, it is easy to cause complications such as re-expansion pulmonary edema, pulmonary hypotension, liver and spleen injury, pleural reaction, intercostal artery injury, pneumothorax, and so on. If the operator does not master procedures properly, it is easy to damage the thoracic organs. Therefore, the department of the general practice of the First Hospital of Jiaxing improved the puncture needle device based on thoracic puncture cannula, developed a new type of disposable thoracic puncture cannula, and obtained the National Utility Model Patent of China (patent number: ZL 2019 2 2112955.7). New type of disposable thoracic puncture cannula comprises a flexible puncture cannula, a steel needle, a limit structure, and a second bolt. In the process of puncture, the length of the puncture is limited by the limit structure. If the puncture force is too strong, the limit structure will prevent further penetration of the needle. The device is easy to use, flexible to operate, easy to master, and can reduce the risk of thoracentesis, which is worth of clinical promotion.

Objective To analyze the serum gastric function and Helicobacter pylori ( HP ) infection in patients with gastric hyperplastic polyps and gastric fundic gland polyps.Methods From December 2017 to December 2018, 135 patients with gastric polyps and pathologically confirmed gastric hyperplastic polyps and gastric fundic gland polyps were enrolled in the hospital of Xuzhou Medical University.Among them, 68 patients with hyperplastic polyps, 67 cases of the gastric fundic gland polyps.Serum Hp antibodies ( UreA, UreB, VacA, CagA antibodies ) were qualitatively detected by immunoblotting.Eighty patients with chronic superficial gastritis were selected as the control group.Three groups of serum pepsinogen?I ( PG?I),pepsinogen?Ⅱ( PG?Ⅱ),gastrin were detected by enzyme?linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).Gastrin?17( G?17) and calculate PGⅠ and PGⅡ ratio( PGR).Results The levels of serum PGⅡ(13.13(8.15,20.30) μg ／L) and G17 (8.44(3.72,27.17) pmol／L) in the gastric hyperplastic polyp group were higher than those in the control group (9.16(5.56,15.14) μg／L and 1.83(0.87,5.95) pmol／L) ( P＜0.05),and the PGR level was lower than the control group ( P＜0.05);serum PGI ( 120.12 ( 86.72,174.70) μg／L), PGII ( 11.92 ( 7.27,22.26) μg／L),G17 ( 5.68 ( 1.79, 14.65) pmol／L) in the gastric fundic gland polyp group was higher than the control group (( 101.32 (79.17,131.33) μg ／L,9.16 ( 5.56,15.14) μg ／L,1.83 ( 0.87,5.95) pmol／L) ( P 均＜0.05)) ( P＜0.05); serum G17 (8.44(3.72,27.17) pmol／L) level in gastric hyperplastic polyp group was higher than gastric fundus polyp group (5.68(1.79,14.65) pmol／L) ( P＜0.05); Hp infection rate in gastric hyperplastic polyp group61.76%(42／68)was higher than that in the gastric fundic gland polyp group40.30%(27／67) (P＜0.05),and type I Hp was the main one (P＜0.05).The serum PGⅡ and G17 levels in the gastric hyperplastic polyp group were higher than those of Hp negative ( all P＜0.05).There were no significant differences in serum PGI, PGⅡ, G17, and PGR levels between the HP?positive and negative?positive patients in the gastric fundus polyp group.The serum PGI and PGR levels in the hypertrophic polyp group were higher than those in the HPⅡ type ( all P＜0.05).There was no significant difference in the levels of serum PGⅠ,PGⅡ,G17,and PGR between the gastric fundic gland polyps group and the type Ⅱ.Conclusion Serum PG and G17 levels in patients with gastric hypertrophic polyps and gastric fundic gland polyps are higher than those in patients with chronic superficial gastritis.Patients with gastric hyperplastic polyps have higher HP infection rate and abnormal gastric function than gastric fundic gland polyps.

Objective: To explore the genetic basis for a pedigree affected with Marfan syndrome (MFS). Methods: Clinical data of the patients was collected.With genomic DNA extracted from peripheral blood samples, potential mutation was detected by targeted exome sequencing.Candidate variants were validated by Sanger sequencing and bioinformatic analysis. Results: Targeted exome sequencing and Sanger sequencing revealed a missense c. 649T>C(p.Trp217Arg) variant in the exon 7 of FBN1 gene, which was unreported previously.Bioinformatics analysis suggested that the variant can cause amino acid replacement and affect the structure and function of fibrillin-1. Conclusion A novel missense variant of the FBN1 gene was identified, which probably underlies the autosomal dominant MFS in this pedigree.

With the successful application of direct-acting antivirals (DAAs) in the treatment of hepatitis C,clinical management of drug -drug interaction (DDI) has become a hot topic in this field.Most DAAs develop DDI with other drugs administered at the same time via cytochrome P450 or transporters in the liver and/or the intestine.At present,European Association for the Study of the Liver has published the recommendations on DDI of DAAs in the treatment of chronic hepatitis C,which covers HIV antiretrovirals,lipid-lowering drugs,cardiovascular drugs,immunosuppressants,and addictive drugs for the central nervous system.When developing the regimens for DAA treatment,clinicians should closely assess and monitor the risk of DDI,in order to reduce or avoid treatment failure or adverse reactions during antiviral therapy.
