Subcortical ischemic vascular disease (SIVD) is considered to be the most important and common cause of vascular cognitive impairment (VCI). If patients with subcortical ischemic vascular cognitive impairment (SIVCI) and subcortical vascular cognitive impairment (sVCI) can be found early, it is possible that vascular dementia (VaD) can be identified before occurrence and even reverse the process. Recent studies have shown that resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rsfMRI) may provide the objective basis for the diagnosis of SIVCI. This article reviews the application of rsfMRI in the diagnosis of SIVCI.

Objective To investigate the lesionsin theleft thalamus and to explore their correlation with executive functionin patients with subcortical ischemic vascular disease(SIVD)by using 1H magnetic resonance spectroscopy (1H-MRS) and diffusion tensor imaging (DTI). Methods Fourteen patients with vascular dementia (VaD), 14 patients with vas-cular cognitive impairment without dementia(VCIND)and 14 normal controls (NC) were recruited. The quantitative analy-sis of N-acetylaspartate (NAA), Choline (Cho), myoinositol (MI) and Creatine (Cr) resonance signals in region of interests (ROI) in the left thalamus were measured. Fractional anisotropy (FA) and mean diffusivity (MD) values in the same region were examined by using DTI. The relationship were analyzedamong the MRS, DTI ratios and cognitive impairment reflect-ed in MMSE and trail making test(TMT). Results The NAA/Cr ratio showed a gradual decrease in the left thalamus of VaD andVCIND patients compared with controls(F=3.656, P=0.038). There was no significant difference in NAA/Cr ra- tiobetween VaD and VCIND patients.Compared with controls, patients with VaD and VCIND demonstrated increased MD value in the left thalamus(F=3.882, P=0.030).There was no significant difference in MD value between VaD and VCIND patients (P>0.05). There were no correlations between NAA/Cr, MI/Cr, Cho/Cr value and DTI parameters in the ROI (P>0.05). TMTb time was positively associated with Cho/Cr(r=0.520,P=0.001 ) and with MD value in the left thalamus (r=0.305, P=0.044). Conclusions Combination of 1H-MRS with DTI can provide the valuable informationon the potential lesions in the thalamus in patients with SIVD. The Cho/Cr and MD values in the leftthalamus may be correlated with ex-ecutive function.

Atherosclerosis (AS) is one of the pathological bases of ischemic stroke. AS caused by elevated low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels is the main causative factor. However, recent studies have found that the traditional blood lipid indicators can not fully reflect the risk of stroke in high-risk populations. Non-traditional blood lipid parameters are developed from traditional blood lipid parameters, including remnant cholesterol (RC), non-high density lipoprotein cholesterol and a variety of blood lipid ratios, which may play a role in the prevention and treatment of cerebrovascular diseases. Among them, RC is increasingly recognized as a biomarker driving the residual risk of AS. It has been confirmed that RC is closely associated with the risk of cerebrovascular disease in the primary and secondary prevention studies of stroke.

By referring to the management model of chief residents, the system of chief resident pharmacists is established to promote the training of clinical pharmacists and the construction of clinical pharmacy disciplines. Professional clinical pharmacists are elected to be the chief resident pharmacists, who are designated based on qualification for application, appointment procedures, scope of responsibilities and job description. The establishment and implementation of the chief resident pharmacist system plays a positive role on the team building of high-quality clinical pharmacists, accelerating the development of clinical pharmacy disciplines. It can serve as an important measure to further strengthening the construction of clinical pharmacists system.

Objective To retrospectively analyze the diagnostic value of thrombin-antithrombin complex(TAT),thrombomodulin(TM),and tissue plasminogen activator-inhibitor complex(t-PAIC)in severe cases of corona virus disease 2019(COVID-19).Methods A cohort of 79 patients clinically diagnosed with COVID-19 was retrospectively assembled and categorized into two groups based on disease severity:non-severe(n=51)and severe(n=28).In this study the differences of coagulation function and inflamma-tory marker levels between the two groups were compared.The correlations of TAT,TM and t-PAIC with other biomarkers were investi-gated.The diagnostic values of all the markers for severe COVID-19 were assessed.Results The patients of severe COVID-19 exhibi-ted significantly higher levels of TAT,TM,and t-PAIC compared to those of non-severe group(P＜0.001).The levels of TAT,TM and t-PAIC showed notable positive correlation with other biomarkers.TAT demonstrated the strongest positive correlation with the level of D-dimer(r=0.786,P＜0.001).Binary logistic regression analysis identified TAT(OR=1.346,P＜0.05)and t-PAIC(OR=1.128,P＜0.05)were independent risk factors in term of severe COVID-19.The combined ROC curve for TAT,TM and t-PAIC revealed high diagnostic efficacy in severe cases with the area under the curve(AUCROC)were 0.918,and the sensitivity and specificity were of 75％and 94.1％,respectively.Conclusion The results of combined measurement of TAT,TM and t-PAIC effectively demonstrates its diagnostic value in identifying severity and stratification of COVID-19 cases and may have important clinical significance for assessment of the severity and prediction of the prognosis.

With the rise of domestic membrane anatomy and preliminary establishment of theoretical framework, the operation concepts supported by membrane anatomy are gaining popularity in surgery, especially in abdominal surgery. However, on account of a deep location and the complexity of organs and tissues around the pancreas and mesangial membrane, there is no unified understanding about the pancreas mesangial by experts and scholars. Meanwhile, few studies on it have been conducted. In addition, the location and extent of total mesangectomy based on the mesangial pancreatic theory are also controversial. The purpose of this article is to summarize the anatomy of pancreatic membrane and its application in surgery, in order to provide support for current studies on pancreatic mesangial anatomy.
