Objective:To review the clinical status based on the best evidence of drug administration in patients with dysphagia, systematically analyze the obstacle factors and promoting factors in the process of evidence transformation, and formulate reform strategies.Methods:Based on the evidence-based nursing research method and the guidance of the Ottawa Model of Research Use (OMRU), the review indicators were developed based on the best evidence. The current status of clinical practice behaviors of 223 patients and 75 nurses in the Neurology, Neurosurgery and Geriatric departments of the Affiliated Hospital of Jiangsu University were reviewed from July to December 2021.Based on the results of the review, qualitative interviews were conducted with 32 potential adopters, and content analysis was used to assess the barriers and contributing factors to the clinical translation of evidence in three aspects: evidence-based change, potential adopters and practice environment, so as to develop effective strategies.Results:Based on the 22 best evidence selected, the evidence-based team developed 25 review indicators to carry out clinical review, showing that the compliance rate of 16 indicators were less than 60%. By analyzing and summarizing the interview results of potential adopters, the main obstacles leading to the low compliance rate of nurses were analyzed as follows: evidence-based reform changed the traditional work mode, and the application of evidence was not convenient; at the level of potential adopters, nurses had poor knowledge and practice, heavy work burden, and low awareness of patients and caregivers; at the level of practice environment, there was lack of nursing norms and procedures for clinical transformation of evidence, and the channels of multi-disciplinary collaboration and communication were not smooth. The main promoting factors were the perfect supervision mechanism of evidence-based nursing projects, the evidence-based group had rich experience in evidence transformation, the management was willing to change, and the practitioners were good at innovation.Conclusions:There is still a large gap between the clinical practice and the best evidence of drug administration in patients with dysphagia. The promoting factors should be fully utilized to overcome the obstacles and implement improvements to promote the effective transformation of evidence into clinical practice.

Objective:To carry out an overview of systematic reviews on interventions to prevent the recurrence of diabetic foot ulcer (DFU) patients.Methods:Systematic reviews or Meta-analysis on interventions to prevent DFU recurrence were electronically retrieved from databases such as China National Knowledge Infrastructure, WanFang Data, VIP, China Biology Medicine disc, Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) Evidence-Based Healthcare Center Database, Cochrane Library, PubMed, Embase, CINAHL and Web of Science. The search period was from database establishment to April 20, 2023. Two researchers independently searched and screened literature, and extracted data, and used AMSTAR 2 software and the quality evaluation criteria for systematic review of JBI Evidence-Based Healthcare Center to evaluate the methodological quality of the included literature. GRADE evaluation system was used for quality assessment of outcome indicators (DFU recurrence rate, effectiveness of measures to prevent DFU recurrence) .Results:A total of 24 systematic reviews were included. Studies showed that monitoring and intervention of foot skin temperature, therapeutic shoes or insoles, comprehensive intervention measures, and specific surgical methods could reduce the recurrence rate of DFU, while foot self-care, foot exercise, health education, and psychological intervention had no statistical effect on preventing DFU recurrence. The methodological quality of systematic reviews was generally low. The reports of four articles were relatively complete, 18 articles had certain defects, and two articles had serious defects. The evaluation of evidence quality showed that there were three pieces of moderate-quality evidence, seven pieces of low-quality evidence, and 30 pieces of extremely low-quality evidence.Conclusions:Existing evidence suggests that foot skin temperature monitoring and intervention, therapeutic shoes or insoles, comprehensive intervention measures, and specific surgical methods (such as Achilles tendon lengthening, metatarsophalangeal joint replacement, metatarsal head resection and so on) have a positive impact on preventing DFU recurrence. Rigorous and high standard research is still needed to verify the controversial issues, so as to provide reliable evidence for future clinical practice and studies.

Lectins are proteins responsible for recognizing the signals of sugar molecules in the body. Sialic acid-binding immunoglobulin-like lectins (Siglecs) regulate the innate and adaptive immune responses in the tumor microenvironment by recognizing the glycan structure containing sialic acid and mediating downstream signals through immune receptor tyrosine inhibitory motifs. In recent years, a variety of tumor treatment strategies targeting the sialic acid-Siglecs axis have been introduced, including sialoglycoprotein-mediated drug delivery and antibody mediated inhibition of Siglecs from recognizing tumor surface ligands. In the future, by combining with glycoprotein nanotherapy, antibody therapy and gene therapy, Siglecs can be used to accurately locate tumor targets and release the anti-tumor immunity, so as to achieve the purpose of effective cure of tumors.

Aspergillus sojae has long been considered a domesticated strain of Aspergillus parasiticus.This study delineated relationships among the two species and an Aspergillus PWE36 isolate. Of 25 examined clustered aflatoxin genes of PWE36, 20 gene sequences were identical to those of A. sojae, but all had variations to those of A. parasiticus. Additionally, PWE36 developmental genes of conidiation and sclerotial formation, overall, shared higher degrees of nucleotide sequence identity with A. sojae genes than with A. parasiticus genes. Examination of defective cyclopiazonic acid gene clusters revealed that the PWE36 deletion pattern was identical only to those of A. sojae. Using A. sojae SMF134 genome sequence as a reference, visualization of locally collinear blocks indicated that PWE36 shared higher genome sequence homologies with A. sojae than with A. parasiticus. Phylogenetic inference based on genome-wide single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and total SNP counts showed that A.sojae strains formed a monophyletic clade and were clonal. Two (Argentinian and Ugandan) A. parasiticus isolates but not including an Ethiopian isolate formed a monophyletic clade, which showed that A. parasiticus population is genetically diverse and distant to A. sojae.PWE36 and A. sojae shared a most recent common ancestor (MRCA). The estimated divergence time for PWE36 and A. sojae was about 0.4 mya. Unlike Aspergillus oryzae, another koji mold that includes genetically diverse populations, the findings that current A. sojae strains formed a monophyletic group and shared the MRCA with PWE36 allow A. sojae to be continuously treated as a species for food safety reasons.

China’s chronic disease management suffers from problems such as unclear institutional function, insufficient information technology application, and weak regulation support. On the basis of current chronic disease management condition in China, this paper proposes to apply the concept of “people-centered” integrated health management to community chronic disease management and discusses the content and procedure of establishing an integrated community-based chronic disease management model driven by massive databases. The model innovatively combines technology integration, data integration and service integration, and can accurately and efficiently realize the "people-centered" full-course health management of various chronic diseases. Shanghai has provided integrated community-based chronic disease management service for 1.98 million citizens through applying this model. The model warrants further effectiveness and economic evaluation. This study provides precious experience for the development of chronic disease prevention and treatment in China.

Tweety-homolog 1 (Ttyh1) is expressed in neural tissue and has been implicated in the generation of several brain diseases. However, its functional significance in pain processing is not understood. By disrupting the gene encoding Ttyh1, we found a loss of Ttyh1 in nociceptors and their central terminals in Ttyh1-deficient mice, along with a reduction in nociceptor excitability and synaptic transmission at identified synapses between nociceptors and spinal neurons projecting to the periaqueductal grey (PAG) in the basal state. More importantly, the peripheral inflammation-evoked nociceptor hyperexcitability and spinal synaptic potentiation recorded in spinal-PAG projection neurons were compromised in Ttyh1-deficient mice. Analysis of the paired-pulse ratio and miniature excitatory postsynaptic currents indicated a role of presynaptic Ttyh1 from spinal nociceptor terminals in the regulation of neurotransmitter release. Interfering with Ttyh1 specifically in nociceptors produces a comparable pain relief. Thus, in this study we demonstrated that Ttyh1 is a critical determinant of acute nociception and pain sensitization caused by peripheral inflammation.
