OBJECTIVE To analyze the effects of biapenem on the blood concentration of sodium valproate （VPA） in patients with severe infections. METHODS A retrospective collection of patient data was conducted， encompassing individuals admitted to our hospital from January 2021 to May 2024 who were treated with biapenem for severe infections and concurrently or sequentially administered VPA for the prevention or treatment of epilepsy. The effects of various factors on the blood concentration of VPA， including the combination of biapenem， the sequence of biapenem administration， the number of days of biapenem combination， the dosage of biapenem， and the time after biapenem discontinuation. RESULTS A total of 70 patients with 117 VPA blood concentration results were included in this study. When VPA was used alone， no statistically significant difference was observed in the steady-state blood concentrations of VPA between patients who received biapenem first and those who received it later （P＞ 0.05）. There was no statistically significant difference between the steady-state concentration of VPA in patients who received biapenem in combination for 1 to 3 days and those who did not receive the combination therapy （P＞0.05）. The steady-state concentration of VPA in patients not receiving biapenem combination therapy was significantly higher than that of the patients who received combination therapy for 4 to 7 days and more than 7 days （P＜0.001）. With the prolonged duration of combination therapy， the blood concentration of VPA gradually decreased （P＜0.001）. However， no statistically significant difference was observed between the group receiving combination therapy for more than 7 days and the group receiving it for 4 to 7 days （P＞ 0.05）. After 1 to 3 days of combination therapy， no statistically significant differences in VPA blood concentrations were observed among patients with different discontinuation times of biapenem （P＞0.05）. The blood concentration of VPA in patients who received combination therapy for more than 3 days was significantly lower than those who discontinued biapenem 4 to 7 days or more than 7 days after more than 3 days of combination therapy（P＜0.001）. There was no statistically significant difference in VPA blood concentrations between patients receiving a daily biapenem dose ＞1.0 g and those receiving a daily dose ＜1.0 g （P＞0.05）. CONCLUSIONS The concomitant administration of biapenem for 1-3 days has a minimal impact on the blood concentration of VPA. In patients receiving combination therapy for longer than 3 days， VPA blood concentrations return to baseline levels chouxiaoh@163.com within 4-7 days after biapenem discontinuation.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the effect and safety of Jiuxin Pill （救心丸） on exercise tolerance and quality of life in patients with stable angina pectoris （SAP）. MethodsA randomised， double-blind， placebo-controlled， multicentre study design was used to enroll 170 patients of SAP from nine centres， which were divided into 85 patients each in the trial group and control group with 1∶1 ratio. Both groups maintained the original western medicine treatment plan， and added Jiuxin Pill or placebo respectively， 2 pills （0.05 g） each time twicely for 28 days. The main outcomes were total exercise time （TED） in the exercise treadmill test and Seattle Angina Questionnaire （SAQ） scores including physical limitation （PL）， angina stability （AS）， angina frequency （AF）， treatment satisfaction （TS）， and disease perception （DP）. The secondary outcomes were exercise treadmill test indicators including heart rate recovery in 1 min （HRR1）， metabolic equivalents （METs）， maximum magnitude of ST-segment depression， and the Borg rating of perceived exertion scale， the average number of angina attacks per week， withdrawal and reduction rate of nitroglycerin， traditional Chinese medicine syndrome scores， incidence of major adverse cardiovascular events. Safety indicators were evaluated and the occurrence of adverse events during the trial was recorded. Data was collected before treatment， day 28±2 in treatment period， and follow-up at day 56 which is 28±2 days after treatment period finished. ResultsEighty-four and eighty-five patients respectively from trial group and control group were included to the full analysis set （FAS） and safety analysis set （SS）. Compared with the group before treatment and with the control group after treatment， the trial group had higher TED， HRR1， and METs， and lower maximum magnitude of ST-segment depression and Borg rating of perceived exertion scores after treatment （P＜0.01）. Compared with the group before treatment and with the control group after treatment and at follow-up， the total SAQ score and scores of AS， AF， TS and DP of the trial group after treatment and at follow-up elevated， while the average number of angina attacks per week and traditional Chinese medicine syndrome scores reduced （P＜0.01）. There was no statistically significant difference in the withdrawal and reduction rate of nitroglycerin between groups （P＞0.05）. Major adverse cardiovascular events occurred in 1 case （1/84， 1.19%） in the trial group and 1 case （1/85， 1.18%） in the control group， and the difference between groups was not statistically significant （P＞0.05）. A total of 3 cases of adverse events occurred in the trial group （3/84， 3.57%）， and a total of 6 cases of adverse events occurred in the control group （6/85， 7.06%）， and there was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of adverse events between groups （P＞0.05）. ConclusionIn the treatment of SAP， Jiuxin Pill combined with conventional western medicine can further enhance exercise tolerance， improve quality of life， and demonstrate great safety.

[Objective] To investigate the clinical features and treatment of renal cell carcinoma unclassified with medullary phenotype (RCCU-MP), so as to improve the clinical understanding of this disease. [Methods] The clinical data of 2 patients with pathological diagnosis of renal medullary carcinoma (RMC) in Zhujiang Hospital during 2019 and 2023 were retrospectively analyzed, and relevant literature was reviewed. [Results] Both patients had symptoms of backache, and imaging examination indicated renal space-occupying lesions.Case 1 was diagnosed as RMC by renal biopsy, and case 2 was pathologically diagnosed as RMC after surgery.Both cases lacked evidence of sickle cell trait or sickle cell disease, and were finally diagnosed as RCCU-MP.Case 1 did not receive antineoplastic therapy and died 5 months after diagnosis.Case 2 underwent laparoscopic nephrectomy, and then received gemcitabine + paclitaxel chemotherapy + immunotherapy.The patient's tumor progressed gradually after first-line treatment was abandoned due to concurrent hematologic infection, and he eventually died 7 months after surgery. [Conclusion] The clinical features of RCCU-MP are partially similar to those of RMC.The diagnosis of RCCU-MP requires pathological examinations and should exclude sickle cell trait or sickle cell disease.Due to the aggressive nature of the tumor, the prognosis of patients is poor.

Objective To explore the application value of Fast Dixon technique in MR hip joint scanning.Methods Fifty young volunteers were recruited to perform axial and coronal MR scans of the hip joint.The scanning sequence was Fast Dixon T2WI sequence and conventional Dixon T2WI sequence.A double-blind five-point scale was used to subjectively evaluate the image quality of the two types sequences.The signal-to-noise ratio(SNR)and contrast-to-noise ratio(CNR)of the axial image were measured at the maximum level of the bladder display.Results In the scores of"good contrast between surrounding tissue and femoral head signal"and"overall image quality",the Fast Dixon T2WI sequence was better than the conventional Dixon T2WI sequence,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).There was no significant difference in the average scores of"whether bladder artifacts affected the diagnosis"and"whether the fat suppression effect was good"between Fast Dixon T2WI sequence and conventional Dixon T2WI sequence(P>0.05).In the objective image quality evaluation,the SNR and CNR of Fast Dixon T2WI sequence were better than those of conventional Dixon T2WI sequence,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).Conclusion The image quality score of the hip joint of young volunteers with Fast Dixon T2WI sequence combined with multiple averaging excitation technique is significantly higher than that of conventional Dixon T2WI sequence.The Fast Dixon T2WI sequence can increase the effect of inhibiting fat and motion artifacts without increasing the scanning time,and the joint face ratio is good.Fast Dixon technique can replace the traditional Dixon technique,thus becoming an optimal choice for hip joint MR scanning.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.

The incidence of osteoporotic thoracolumbar vertebral fracture (OTLVF) in the elderly is gradually increasing. The kyphotic deformity caused by various factors has become an important characteristic of OTLVF and has received increasing attention. Its clinical manifestations include pain, delayed nerve damage, sagittal imbalance, etc. Currently, the definition and diagnosis of OTLVF with kyphotic deformity in the elderly are still unclear. Although there are many treatment options, they are controversial. Existing guidelines or consensuses pay little attention to this type of fracture with kyphotic deformity. To this end, the Lumbar Education Working Group of the Spine Branch of the Chinese Medicine Education Association and Editorial Committee of Chinese Journal of Trauma organized the experts in the relevant fields to jointly develop Clinical guidelines for the diagnosis and treatment of osteoporotic thoracolumbar vertebral fractures with kyphotic deformity in the elderly ( version 2024), based on evidence-based medical advancements and the principles of scientificity, practicality, and advanced nature, which provided 18 recommendations to standardize the clinical diagnosis and treatment.

Objective:To investigate the status of knowledge, attitude and practice about first aid and influencing factors in key population, those who have frequent contacts with people and might be "first aid" promoter in general population of Beijing, and provide evidences for the promotion of first aid.Methods:This study was a cross-sectional survey based on the "Emergency Rescue Capacity Training Project". Using cluster sampling, we recruited 9 591 participants after the training in Beijing for survey with a self-designed questionnaire from October 2021 to March 2022.Results:In 9 591 participants, 98.58% knew the emergency call number, while only 32.00% knew how to identify sunstroke. The awareness rate of the definition of first aid and legal disclaimer were lower (63.61%, 75.91%). People's willingness to give first aid to others, including relative, acquaintance, stranger and vagrant, were different ( χ2=822.82, P<0.001). People were more likely to give first aid to relative, acquaintance and stranger compared with vagrant ( P<0.05). With the increase of psychological distance, the willingness to give first aid decreased ( Z=-26.57, P<0.001). According to the results of Logistic regression analysis, older age, higher annual family income and higher awareness of first aid related knowledge were contributing factors for giving first aid. In 1 529 people who met emergency, only 66 people (4.32%)did not give any first aid. Conclusions:The key population in Beijing has high awareness of first aid related knowledge and positive attitude of first aid after training. A high proportion of people performed first aid to others. Age, annual family income and awareness of first aid related knowledge were contributing factors for giving first aid.

Objective To analyze the change of healthcare quality after the Diagnosis-Intervention Packet(DIP)payment system reform and provide evidence for improving payment system reform in China.Methods It collected discharge records of hospitalized patients with employee basic medical insurance scheme in first DIP pilot hospitals of a city from July 2017 to June 2021.It included three death-related measures and two readmission-related mea-sures,which were all risk-adjusted considering the patient mix.It used t test to compare their differences before and after the DIP reform in July 2019.Results After the risk-adjustment,mortality rate of surgical patients,mortality rate of patients in low-risk DIP groups,all-cause readmission rate within 30 days after discharge and readmission rate with the same principal diagnosis within 30 days after discharge declined 0.06 percentage points(P=0.031),0.15 percentage points(P=0.001),0.47 percentage points(P＜0.001)and 0.72 percentage points(P＜0.001),respectively.Conclusion No current evidences indicated negative impacts of the DIP payment reform on the quality of healthcare in the city.Case-based payment pilot cities should closely monitor the change of healthcare quality after the reform.

Objective To evaluate the activity of the cerebral glymphatic system during recovery in ischemic stroke(IS)patients with motor dysfunction,and to explore its association with motor function scores and corticospinal tract(CST)integrity via.Methods A total of 20 patients with IS(stroke group)and 20 healthy volunteer(control group)were recruited.There was a single lesion located at the left cerebral hemisphere in the stroke group.Demographic and clinical data of all participants were recorded.All participants underwent brain MRI scans,including diffusion tensor imaging(DTI)and T2WI.Diffusion tensor image analysis along the perivascular space(DTI-ALPS)index at lateral ventricle level,fractional anisotropy(FA)and axial diffusivity(AD)of CST were calculated and the differences of each index between the two groups were compared.The correlation between DTI-ALPS index and Fugl-Meyer score and integrity of CST were analyzed in stroke group,respectively.Results The DTI-ALPS index in the stroke group was significantly lower than that in the control group(t=-3.88,P＜0.001).The DTI-ALPS index in the stroke group was positively correlated with motor function score(P=0.019),motor function grading(P=0.024)and sensory score(P=0.048),respectively.The DTI-ALPS index was negatively correlated with FA(r=-0.60,P=0.009)and AD(r=-0.67,P=0.002)of healthy side CST.Conclusion The decrease of DTI-ALPS index in patients with IS indicates the damage of cerebral glymphatic system.DTI-ALPS index may be a potential MRI biomarker for motor dysfunction in patients with IS,and a new idea is proposed for the study of the pathophysiological mechanism of IS.
