Objective:To analyze the current situation of the course of Pharmaceutical Analysis in the education and training of undergraduate students, explore the teaching reform and innovation to better accommodate the pharmacy education in the new era and build an advanced mode for training pharmaceutical talents with interdisciplinary expertise that meet the requirements and needs of job market. Methods:The first stage was to investigate the suggestions and needs of teaching reform; the second stage was to carry out the exploration and practice of the course reform; the third stage was to evaluate the teaching effect.Results:The demand survey showed that the teaching content, course design, and teaching methods of the Pharmaceutical Analysis need to be further optimized and expanded. Conclusion:By adjusting the teaching content, expanding teaching methods, innovating diversified teaching practices, and integrating the "curriculum ideology and politics" into the construction, the course reform has stimulated students' interest in learning and innovative spirit, strengthened their theoretical literacy and practical ability, and cultivated their international vision and lofty professional ethics.

Objective:To summarize the clinical characteristics of neonatal brain abscess and improve the understanding of diagnosis and treatment of this disease.Methods:Clinical data of five cases of neonatal brain abscess admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from December 2018 to March 2021 were retrospectively analyzed and followed-up.Results:Among five cases, four cases were premature and one was term infant, three were girls and two were boys. The age of onset was 10, 5, 2, 28 and 11 days after birth, and all had fever as the first manifestation. Three cases had positive blood or cerebrospinal fluid cultures, and the diagnosis of brain abscess was confirmed by head imaging, with the most common lesion being in the frontal lobe. One case was treated conservatively, and four cases underwent abscess aspiration and drainage. After treatment, the range of lesions in five cases was reduced and the clinical symptoms were improved. The neurodevelopmental assessment after discharge did not reveal any intelligence or motor retardation in three cases, and were developing as the same age, while the other two cases had various degrees of neurological sequelae.Conclusion:The clinical characteristics of neonatal brain abscess are not specific, so it is necessary to conduct head imaging examination as early as possible for neonates with septicemia and meningitis with poor therapeutic effect or recurrent disease, so as to improve the early diagnosis rate and long-term prognosis.

Although great progress has been made in perinatal and neonatal medicine, the morbidity and mortality of premature complications remain high.At present, the prevention and treatment of preterm infants with broncho-pulmonary dysplasia, brain injury, necrotizing enterocolitis, retinopathy of prematurity and other complications are cha-llenging.Experimental evidences have shown that regenerative medicine based on mesenchymal stem cells is a promising therapeutic strategy for premature complications, although it has potential risks like tumorigenicity and immune rejection.Exosomes are the key mediators of mesenchymal stem cells, which have been a promising method for the treatment of premature complications.This study aims to review the research progress of exosomes derived from mesenchymal stem cells in the treatment of premature complications.

Objective:To construct a Chinese neonatal model of early-onset sepsis (EOS) using the Kaiser Permanente sepsis risk calculator and laboratory indicators and validate its clinical prediction potential.Methods:Newborns with a gestational age of ≥34 weeks, who were hospitalized in the Department of Neonatology, the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from January 2020 to June 2022 were retrospectively recruited.Their clinical data were collected.Predictors were screened via the multivariate regression analysis, and the Nomogram model was constructed using R software and RStudio software.Hosmer-Lemeshow test, receiver operating characteristic curve, the decision curve analysis (DCA) were used to evaluate the prediction potential of the Nomogram.Results:A total of 769 patients were enrolled, including 107 patients in the EOS group (5 culture-confirmed cases and 102 clinically diagnosed cases), and 662 cases in the non-EOS group.Ten variables were screened and introduced into the Nomogram, including the gestational age, birth weight, body temperature, white blood cell count, C-reactive protein, procalcitonin, premature rupture of membranes≥18 h, infection of Group B Streptococcus, ventilator application, and prenatal antibiotics.The predictive model showed good discrimination and consistency, with the area under the curve of 0.834 (95% CI: 0.771-0.896). The DCA of the prediction model showed that it was effective in clinical application within the effective threshold of 6%-95%, with a net benefit following the application of corresponding treatment measures. Conclusions:A Chinese neonatal model of EOS was created by using the Kaiser Permanente sepsis risk calculator and laboratory indicators, which has been validated effective.It provides references for clinical management and the guidance for the use of antibiotics.
