ObjectiveTo develop and verify a reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography(RP-HPLC)method for the determination of residual amount of trifluoroacetic acid(TFA)in human interferon alpha 2b(hIFNα2b)stock solution,and preliminarily apply the method.MethodsThe conditions of liquid chromatography were as follows:ZORBAX300SB-C18 column(4. 6 mm × 250 mm,5 μm);mobile phase:0. 08% phosphoric acid(pH 3. 0)+ 5. 0% methanol solution;detection time:6 min;flow rate:0. 8 mL/min;column temperature:35 ℃；UV wavelength:210 nm;injection volume:20 μL;isocratic elution. The system adaptability,linearity,specificity,accuracy,precision,limit of quantitation(LOQ),limit of detection(LOD)and durability of the method were verified. The TFA residues in three batches of hIFNα2b stock solution samples were determined by the developed method and composite column Comixsil ACRP(100 mm × 4. 6 mm,5 μm).ResultsThe linearity of TFA was good in the range of 10-300 μg/mL(R2= 0. 998 4). The average spike recovery rate was 101. 8% and RSD was 2. 68%. The RSDs of repeatability and intermediate precision verification were 0. 46% and0. 45%,respectively. The LOQ was 10 μg/mL,and the LOD was 2 μg/mL. The slight fluctuation of pH of organic solvent,buffer salt and temperature of column under the specified conditions had no obvious influence on the detection results,and the peak area was affected when the detection wavelength changed. In addition,TFA residues were not detected in three batches of hIFNα2b stock solution by two methods.ConclusionThe developed RP-HPLC method has good system adaptability,specificity,accuracy,precision and durability,and can be used for the determination of TFA residues in hIFNα2b stock solution.

BACKGROUND:Searching for a porous three-dimensional (3D) scaffold holding good porosity, mechanical property and biocompatibility has become a hot spot, in which, 3D printing technology also plays apart. OBJECTIVE:To prepare silk fibroin/col agen scaffolds using 3D printing technology and detect its performance. METHODS:Silk fibroin/col agen scaffolds were constructed using 3D printing technology, and the silk fibroin/col agen mass ratio was 4:2 (group A) and 4:4 (group B), respectively. The porosity, water absorption expansion rate, mechanical properties and pore size of the composite scaffolds were detected. The passage 3 rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s were seeded onto the two scaffolds. The cel proliferation was detected using MTT assay at 13 days of culture, and the cel morphology was observed by hematoxylin-eosin staining and scanning electron microscope at 14 days of culture. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The porosity, pore size, and water absorption expansion rate of group A were significantly larger than those of group B (P<0.05), while the elasticity modulus showed no significant difference between groups. Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s on the two scaffolds increased gradual y with time, especial y in the group A (P<0.05). Abundant cel s distributed evenly in the group A, while few cel s distributed unevenly in the group B. These results suggest that the 3D printed scaffolds composed by silk fibroin/col agen mass ratio of 4:2 holds good physicochemical performance and cytocompatibility.

Objective To observe the clinical characteristics in schoolchildren diagnosed with allergic rhi-nitis(AR)and nonallergic rhinitis(NAR)three years ago,and to compare the prevalence of asthma and chronic cough among them and the impacts of AR and NAR on the quality of life. Methods Totally 146 AR children and 108 NAR ones diagnosed between September 2013 and March 2014 were surveyed using a questionnaire by tele-phone and all the children were not complicated with chronic cough and asthma. The statistical analysis was per-formed by a professional statistician using SPSS 12.0 statistical software. Results A total of 111 questionnaires were completed in AR group and 76 in NAR group. The prevalence of asthma was 11.7%(13/111)in AR group while 6.6%(5/76)in NAR group and there was no statistically significant difference(χ2=1.366,P=0.242). The prevalence of chronic cough was 26.1%(29/111)in AR group and 13.2%(10/76)in NAR group and there was sta-tistically significant difference(χ2=4.596,P=0.032). The score of rhinitis visual scale(VAS)and rhinoconjunc-tivitis quality of life questionnaire(RQLQ)was significant higher in AR group than that in NAR group(t = 2.570 and 2.467,P=0.012 and 0.016). Conclusions Children with NAR may also have the risk for the development of asthma as those with AR. The prevalence of chronic cough is higher in children with AR than in those with NAR. AR might bring more impacts on children′s quality of life than NAR.

Objective:To investigate the clinical significance of TMB among CRC patients after R 0 resection and capecitabine-based adjuvant chemotherapy. Methods:Data of 82 CRC patients were reviewed retrospectively. Tumor tissue specimens were collected for DNA extraction . Somatic mutation detection and TMB analysis were performed using next-generation sequencing (NGS) of tumor-related genes. The univariate analysis between TMB status and prognosis was carried out by Kaplan-Meier survival analysis and adjusted by multivariate COX regression analysis subsequently.Results:In these 82 cases,with the median follow-up period was 5.5 years the median disease-free survival (DFS) was 4.5 years, and the median overall survival (OS) was 5.7 years. The most common mutated somatic genes were TP53, APC, KRAS and PIK3CA, with the mutation frequencies of 68.3%, 64.6%, 46.3% and 29.3%, respectively. Other somatic mutant genes were of a relatively low frequency (<25%). The overall somatic mutation burden was relatively low. TMB status was divided into TMB-L (≤3.6/Mb) and TMB-H (>3.6/Mb) according to the median TMB threshold. And the patients with TMB-L and TMB-H were 42 cases and 40 cases, respectively. The median OS in patients with TMB-L and TMB-H was 6.5 and 4.7 years, respectively (χ 2=6.59, P=0.010). TMB status was an independent factor for OS ( HR=0.73, P=0.021). Conclusion:TMB is a biomarker for evaluating the prognosis of CRC patients after surgical resection and receiving capecitabine-based adjuvant chemotherapy .

Objective:To analyze the current status of neonatal nosocomial infection research at home and abroad, explore its research hotspots and development trends, and provide evidence for further research on the prevention and treatment of neonatal nosocomial infection.Methods:The Chinese and English literature related to neonatal nosocomial infection included in CNKI and Web of Science Database from 2010 to 2021 were searched, and CiteSpace 6.1.R2 and VOSviewer1.6.18 software were used to map the authors, institutions, countries, and keywords of the included literature. At the same time, the burst item map was used to predict the future research development trends to a certain extent.Results:A total of 235 authors and 2 core teams of Chinese literature (1 639 articles), 157 authors and 2 core teams of English literature (1 322 articles) were analyzed. 659 Chinese keywords and 1 330 English keywords were extracted, including "nosocomial infection", "risk factors", "infection", "epidemiology", etc. From these literature, 13 Chinese literature clusters and 6 English clusters were generated, and the clustering results were significant and reasonable. The current research hotspots in China focused on pregnancy outcomes and nursing management, while the hotspots of foreign researches focused on sequelae and disease burden.Conclusions:Compared with international research, domestic research on neonatal nosocomial infection hasn't combined with social, environmental and other related factors, while international research teams have begun to shift the focus of research on neonatal nosocomial infections to disease burden and infection sequelae. In the future, cooperation between domestic and foreign research teams should be strengthened, focusing on the frontier trend of international research, and improving the depth and breadth of research.

Objective:To retrieve, evaluate, and integrate the best evidence for enteral nutrition management in children with prone position ventilation, providing a basis for constructing clinical nursing practice programs for enteral nutrition management in children with prone position ventilation.Methods:Evidence on the management of enteral nutrition in children with prone position ventilation, including clinical decisions, guidelines, expert consensus, systematic reviews, and original studies, was electronically retrieved on UpToDate, BMJ Best Practice, Joanna Briggs Institute Evidence-Based Health Care Center Database in Australia, Cochrane Library, CINAHL, PubMed, Web of Science, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, WanFang Data, Chinese Medical Journal Full-text Database, China Biology Medicine disc, Medlive, Guidelines International Network, National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence, European Society for Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition, American Society for Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition and British Dietetic Association. The search period was from the establishment of the database until June 30, 2023. Two researchers independently screened literature, and extracted and summarized evidence from literature that met quality standards.Results:A total of 17 articles were included, including three clinical decisions, 7 guidelines, three expert consensus, two systematic reviews, one cross-sectional study, and one cohort study. Twenty-six pieces of evidence were summarized from 7 themes of preparation before prone position operation, post operation organization, timing of enteral nutrition restart in prone position, management of prone position, selection of feeding methods, management of feeding intolerance, and prevention of aspiration.Conclusions:The best evidence for enteral nutrition management in children with prone position ventilation covers the entire process of enteral nutrition management in prone position children, with strong guidance and operability, which can provide a basis for enteral nutrition management in children with prone position ventilation. Medical and nursing staff should further refine evidence-based nursing practice programs based on the characteristics of children of different age groups, standardize the operation process of enteral nutrition in children with prone position ventilation, ensure the target feeding amount, and reduce the occurrence of complications.

The accurate assessment of burn injuries is complex and difficult. The emergence of some new skin imaging techniques, such as hyperspectral imaging, unilateral magnetic resonance imaging, laser Doppler perfusion imaging, etc., has made great progress in research on burn injury assessment. With the continuous progress of imaging technology and medical imaging, medical imaging technologies such as digital radiography, computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, and ultrasonography, and so on, have played an important role in burn injury assessment. However, there are still relatively few research reports on burn injury imaging, which may be due to the fact that the imaging techniques and diagnostic experience used for burn injury assessment are not yet fully popular in some medical institutions, and the imaging manifestations related to burns are complex and lack of specificity. This article mainly reviews the application research progress of various imaging techniques in the assessment of burn injury in recent years, aiming to explore the application value of various imaging techniques in burn injury assessment.

Objective:To evaluate the effects of supra-arch branches bypass on cerebral oxygen saturation and hemodynamics in patients with Stanford type B aortic dissection.Methods:From January to December 2018, consecutive 27 patients with Stanford type B aortic dissection were enrolled in the study. All patients received hybrid treatment, including supra-arch branches bypass(right axillary artery-left common carotid artery-left subclavian artery) and thoracic endovascular aortic repaire(TEVAR). All the operations were performed by the same surgical team. The left and right cerebral oxygen saturation were measured after anesthesia(T1), left carotid artery occlusion(T2) and after operation(T3); peak systolic velocity(PSV) and resistance index(RI) of left and right carotid arteries were measured before(t1) and after operation(t2).Results:The left cerebral oxygen saturation was 0.62 ±0.01, 0.54±0.01 and 0.62±0.01 at T1, T2 and T3, respectively. There was significant difference between T2 and T1 and T3( P=0.002, P=0.001), but there was no significant difference between T1 and T3. The PSV of left carotid artery at t1 and t2 were(0.91±0.11)m/s and(0.76±0.09)m/s respectively, with no significant difference( P= 0.191). The RI of left carotid artery at t1 and t2 were 0.83±0.06 and 0.93±0.13 respectively, with no significant difference( P= 0.575). Conclusion:If one side of carotid artery was blocked for a short time during supra-arch branches bypass, the cerebral oxygen saturation would be decreased temporarily, but the changes of cerebral oxygen metabolism could be completely restored after operation. However, the hemodynamics of carotid artery would not change significantly. In the hybrid treatment strategy for the patients with aortic dissection Stanford type B, blocking bilateral carotid arteries can be avoided. Making the right axillary artery-left common carotid artery-left subclavian artery shunt is a safe and effective choice.

Objective:To investigate the preoperative ascending aorta diameter in patients with acute type A aortic dissection in the Chinese population, compares and analyze the differences in preoperative blood biomarkers, and evaluate the impact of the preoperative ascending aorta diameter in this part of patients on the short-term prognosis of patients.Methods:A collection of 641 patients with acute type A aortic dissection who were enrolled in the " Acute Aortic Syndrome High-Risk Early Warning and Intervention Study" project from January 2018 to January 2020 were collected. Divide the patients into two groups (group Ⅰ<55 mm, group Ⅱ≥55 mm) according to the preventive intervention value of ascending aorta diameter recommended by the guideline for studying preoperative ascending aorta diameter difference in blood biomarkers and the influence of ascending aorta diameter on the short-term prognosis of patients. All patients had CT scans to assess the diameter of the ascending aorta before operation.Results:In this study, all patients with acute type A aortic dissection had a mean preoperative ascending aorta diameter of (46.9±9.7)mm. The preoperative ascending aorta diameter of all patients was less than 55 mm, accounted for 84.1%. Male patients were more likely to have aortic dissection than females; most patients' age was less than 60 years old. The preoperative blood inflammatory index counts were higher in the ascending aorta diameter ≥55 mm group. However, the long-term prognosis of patients with different ascending aorta diameters before surgery was not apparent in this study. The preoperative survival rate and short-term survival rate of patients with ascending aorta diameter <55 mm were higher than those of other groups, but the difference was not statistically significant.Conclusion:In patients with acute type A aortic dissection, the diameter of the ascending aorta is usually less than 55 mm. Moreover, the blood inflammatory index counts are high in the preoperative ascending aorta diameter ≥55 mm group. Meanwhile, patients with smaller ascending aorta diameter have better survival rate and short-term prognosis.
