Objective To evaluate the protective effect of human nucleus pulposus cell by Liraglutide(Lir)under high-glucose environment via inhibition of NOD-like receptor family,pyrin domain containing 3(NLRP3)inflammasome activation and its mechanism.Methods Human nucleus pulposus cell lines were cultured and the third-generation nucleus pulposus cells were randomly divided into control group(Con group),high glucose group(HG group),and Liraglutide interference group(Lir group),and cultured for 48 h.ELISA was used to detect interleukin IL-1β;flow cytometry was used to testreactive oxygen species(ROS),and Western blot was used to evaluate the protein expressions of NLRP3,Pro-caspase-1,and Caspase-1.Results Compared with Con group,IL-1β,ROS,NLRP3,Pro-caspase-1,Caspase-1 protein expression and cell apoptosis were increased in HG and Lir groups(P<0.05).Compared with HG group,IL-1β,ROS,NLRP3,Pro-caspase-1,Caspase-1 protein expression and cell apoptosis were significantly decreased in Lir group(P<0.05).Conclusion Liraglutide protects human NPCs by inhibiting the activation of NLRP3 inflammasome,reducing IL-1β secretion,and inhibiting cell apoptosis.

The nursing experience of intimal hyperplasia at buttonhole puncture site in a patient with autogenous arteriovenous fistula was reported.The key points of nursing:to formulate a scientific and reasonable internal fistula puncture plan,to establish and maintain the buttonhole tunnel,to regularly monitor the use of arteriovenous fistula,to replace the traditional internal fistula steel needle(hereinafter referred to as the steel needle)with the hemodialysis trocar needle(hereinafter referred to as the trocar needle)for buttonhole puncture,to treat with far infrared ray during each dialysis,and to guide the patient to apply hirudoid cream on the arm of the fistula side.After careful nursing,the intimal hyperplasia at the buttonhole puncture site disappeared,and there was no recurrence after 6 months of follow-up.

Objective To formulate the quantitative grip strength training program for application in the postoperative patients with autogenous arteriovenous internal fistula,and to evaluate its effect on the mat-uration and initial use of autogenous arteriovenous internal fistula.Methods A total of 98 patients with ce-phalic venous radial arterial anastomosis internal fistula formation surgery in Shenzhen Hospital of Southern Medical University from September 2021 to November 2022 were selected as the study subjects by the conven-ience sampling method.According to the follow-up time,they were divided into the observation group (n=41) and control group (n=42).The observation group adopted the quantitative grip strength training for function-al exercise of the limb on the side of internal fistula,while the control group adopted the conventional grip training for functional exercise of the limb on the side of internal fistula.In postoperative 8 weeks,the matura-tion rate of internal fistula,natural blood flow amount of internal fistula,internal diameter of cephalic vein,pre-pump pressure used in the initial stage of internal fistula and the incidence rate of internal fistula complica-tions were evaluated in the two groups.Results Compared with the control group,the maturation rate of in-ternal fistula in the observation group was higher (97.6％ vs. 83.3％).The inner diameter of cephalic vein and natural blood flow amount of internal fistula in the observation group were larger than those in the control group[(5.24±0.66)mm vs. (4.63±0.59)mm;(1215.38±562.99)mL/min vs. (955.75±341.94)mL/min],the pre-pump pressure used at the initial stage of internal fistula in the observation group was lower than that in the control group[(119.20±19.83)mmHg vs. (135.74±17.07)mmHg],and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05).Conclusion The quantitative grip strength training could increase the postoperative maturity rate of patients's internal fistula,and is beneficial to the use in the initial stage of internal fistula.

Objective To comprehensively evaluate the current clinical application status of evidence regarding immunosuppressive medication compliance management in kidney transplant patients,construct review indicators,analyze the obstacles and promoting factors,and further formulate reform strategies.Methods Using the Joanna Briggs Institute evidence-based health care model as the theoretical framework,clinical nursing issues were identified,and a systematic search,evaluation,and summarization of 38 items of evidence were conducted.An evidence-based practice group was established;review indicators were constructed;review methods were clarified.Baseline reviews of systems,healthcare professionals,patients,and their families were conducted from November 1,2022,to January 31,2023.According to the review results,the obstacles and promoting factors in the process of evidence-based practice were analyzed,and corresponding strategies were formulated.Results A total of 23 review indicators were constructed.Among them,the accurate execution rate of 15 indicators was less than 60％,and the accurate execution rate of 4 indicators was 0.The main obstacles include a lack of systems and processes in departments,poor knowledge,attitude,and practice of medical staff,a lack of standardized risk assessment,and a lack of information support for out-of-hospital management.The primary promoting factors are strong organizational leadership,multidisciplinary team support,and high participation enthusiasm of recipients and their families.Corresponding reform strategies are formulated accordingly,including process and system improvement,continuous quality monitoring,enhanced standardized training and assessment,electronic health intervention for medication compliance,and involving patients and their families in the medication compliance management process.Conclusion There is a significant gap between the evidence on immunosuppressive medication compliance management in kidney transplant patients and its clinical practice.It is essential to assess the obstacles and facilitators scientifically and comprehensively in clinical situations,employ targeted reform strategies,facilitate the translation of evidence into clinical practice,and enhance the quality of nursing care.

To investigate the evaluation and management of gastrointestinal fistula after upper gastrointestinal tunnel endoscopic surgery, a retrospective analysis was performed on 15 patients with gastrointestinal fistula after upper gastrointestinal tunnel endoscopic surgery, who were treated at the Endoscopy Center of Zhongshan Hospital, Fudan University from January 2012 to October 2022. All patients were treated successfully after comprehensive treatment. Three patients received metal clipping and gastric tube drainage; 10 patients received gastric tube drainage combined with jejunal nutritional tube placement, and 7 of them had gastric tube directly put into the fistula cavity; 2 patients received covered esophageal stent placement combined with jejunal nutritional tube placement. Five patients received wound tissue glue spraying; 2 patients underwent purse-string suture with nylon loops and metal clips after reduced fistula burned by hot biopsy forcep or argon plasma coagulation. The gastrointestinal fistula after tunnel endoscopic surgery is a complex postoperative complication, which needs early detection, careful evaluation and comprehensive treatment.

Objective:To investigate the association between reproductive lifespan duration (RLD) and urinary albumin-creatinine ratio (UACR) in a Chinese postmenopausal population.Methods:This cross-sectional study included 11 055 naturally postmenopausal women from seven regions of China from May to December 2011. RLD was divided into four groups. Propensity score matching was performed to reduce bias, and logistic regressions and stratifications were conducted to investigate the association between RLD and increased UACR (≥30 mg/g). Mediation effect analysis was performed to quantify the effect of RLD on cardiovascular disease (CVD) induced by elevated UACR.Results:There were 2 373 participants with a RLD of 18-31 years, 2 888 participants with a RLD of 32-34 years, 2 472 participants with a RLD of 35-36 years, and 3 322 participants with a RLD of 37-50 years. The shortest RLD (18-31 years) group was characterized with older age ( P<0.001), a higher incidence of CVD ( P=0.025), and the highest level of UACR ( P<0.001). After adjusting for confounders, women with a longer RLD (37-50 years group) exhibited a lower risk of UACR elevation compared with those with the shortest RLD (18-31 years group) ( OR=0.72, 95% CI 0.64-0.82, P<0.001). Every 1-year extension in RLD was linked to a 2% reduction in the risk of UACR elevation ( OR=0.98, 95% CI 0.97-0.99, P<0.001). Stratified analysis revealed a more significant association between RLD and UACR in women who were a normal weight ( P=0.003) or overweight ( P=0.001), in those without CVD history ( P=0.001), and in those with impaired estimated glomerular filtration rate ( P=0.004). The mediation casual analysis showed that 3.0% of proteinuria inducing CVD events was mediated by RLD ( P=0.048). Conclusion:A longer RLD (37-50 years) is associated with a lower UACR in Chinese postmenopausal women.

To investigate the feasibility and safety of endoscopic trans-gastric cholecystolithotomy(ETGC) combined with endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) for cholecystolithiasis and choledocholithiasis. Data of patients with cholecystolithiasis and choledocholithiasis who underwent ETGC after ERCP in Zhongshan Hospital Affiliated to Fudan University from November 2018 to April 2019 were analyzed. Six patients with cholecystolithiasis and choledocholithiasis, 4 males and 2 females, were included in this study.The interval between ERCP and ETGC ranged from 1 to 77 days (median 5 days). All the 6 patients successfully completed ETGC after ERCP, with a surgical success rate of 100%. All the patients had multiple cholecystolithiasis and one patient was complicated with gallbladder polyps.The ETGC operation time was 22-100 min (median 65 min), and the length of hospital stay was 3-9 d (median 6.5 d). Two patients had dull pain in the upper abdomen and increased body temperature after surgery. Abdominal ultrasound in one patient suggested local effusion in the right upper abdomen.Both patients improved after conservative treatment.None of the patients had cholecystitis and cholangitis related symptoms such as right upper abdominal pain or fever during postoperative follow-up, and the follow-up rate was 100%with median follow-up time of 18 month.All the 6 patients underwent abdominal ultrasound examination after surgery. No recurrence occurred in 5 patients. One of the patients showed cholesterol crystals in the gallbladder wall and bile mud deposition.ETGC combined with ERCP is safe and feasible for cholecystolithiasis and choledocholithiasis.

Objective:To understand the status quo and impact of Beijing Standardized Residency Training program following three years of the medical education synergy policy from the perspective of residents.Methods:Online questionnaire was used from April to May 2018 to investigate two types of residents who had completed the program in Beijing in 2018, and a comparison was made with the 2014 training program, activities, evaluation, and support conditions. Statistical descriptions and Wilcoxon signed-rank test were used for analysis.Results:A total of 3 293 residents completed the Beijing Standardized Residency Training, of which 54.75% were resident physicians, and 45.25% were graduate students in clinical medicine. Compared with 2014, the completion rate of the disease types and quantity, clinical operation types and quantity required by the training plan has been significantly improved, with the proportions being 93.77% and 92.80%, respectively. The implementation rate of examinations in 7 departments including Internal Medicine was greater than 90%, which is significantly higher than that in 2014; The conditions for training support had improved significantly.Conclusions:The impact of Beijing Standardized Residency Training Program was already emerging since the medical education synergy policy in place. It was recommended that various measures be taken to steadily improve the quality of the " dual-track system" .

Objective:To analyze the molecular and virulence characteristics of Staphylococcus aureus ( S. aureus) isolated from neonates. Methods:A total of 189 S. aureus isolates were collected from Beijing Children′s Hospital from January 2013 to October 2019 and analyzed by multilocus sequence typing (MLST), staphylococcal cassette chromosome mec (SCC mec) typing and Spa typing. Panton-valentine leucocidin (PVL)-encoding gene ( pvl) and 21 superantigen virulence genes were also detected. Results:The 189 S. aureus strains were isolated from respiratory secretions ( n=125), pus ( n=55), blood ( n=8) and pleural effusion ( n=1). There were 98 methicillin-susceptible S. aureus (MSSA) belonging to 42 MSSA clones and 91 methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA) belonging to 26 MRSA clones. ST188-t189 and ST59-SCC mecⅣa-t437 were the predominant MSSA and MRSA clones accounting for 11% and 53%, respectively. The prevalence of pvl gene in MRSA isolates was significantly higher than that in MSSA isolates (32% vs 10%, P<0.01). There were 166 isolates (88%) carrying at least one superantigen virulence gene and among the 21 genes, seq and seb were the most common genes accounting for 47% and 43%, respectively. The most common superantigen genotype was seb- sek- seq. The positive rates of superantigen genes in MRSA and MSSA isolates were 85% (77/91) and 90% (88/98), respectively ( P>0.05). Conclusions:The main clones of MRSA and MSSA were different in neonates. ST59-SCC mecⅣa-t437 was the most predominant MRSA clone, while ST188-t189 was the most predominant MSSA clone. MSSA clones were more dispersed. The prevalence of pvl gene in MRSA was higher than that in MSSA. No significant difference in the prevalence of superantigen genes was observed between MRSA and MSSA.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of endoscopic trans-gastric gallbladder-preserving polypectomy in treatment of gallbladder polyps.Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed on data of 25 patients with gallbladder polyps who underwent endoscopic trans-gastric gallbladder-preserving polypectomy in the endoscopy center of Zhongshan Hospital from September 2017 to August 2019. Completion of operation, operation time, postoperative hospital stay, complications and follow-up results of patients were obtained and analyzed.Results:There were 13 cases of single polyp and 12 cases of multiple polyps, 13 cases of simple gallbladder polyps, and 12 cases of polyps and gallstones. The maximum diameter of polyps was 0.2-1.5 cm. The procedure failed in 1 patient (4%) because of the severe adhesion of abdominal cavity and disappearance of gallbladder when passing through the gastric wall. Twenty-four patients (96%) were successfully treated with endoscopic trans-gastric gallbladder-preserving polypectomy. The operation time was 67.1±26.8 min (35-140 min). The median hospital stay was 4 d (2-5 d). No severe adverse events including delayed bleeding, delayed perforation, diffuse peritonitis or abdominal abscess occurred. During the median follow-up time of 8 months (0-23 months), no patient was lost, no recurrence of polyps and no severe adverse events related to metal clips occurred.Conclusion:Endoscopic trans-gastric gallbladder-preserving polypectomy shows good short-term efficacy and is technically feasible, however, long-term outcome still requires further research.
