BACKGROUNDTo investigate whether neoadjuvant chemotherapy (MVP) could influence the safety of perioperative patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
METHODSThe regimen of chemotherapy was MVP (mitomycin+vindesine+cisplatin) for all patients. The patients undergoing 2 cycles of neoadjuvant chemotherapy, radical resection and 2 cycles of postoperative chemotherapy were compared with those undergoing similar resections and 4 cycles of similar postoperative chemotherapy.
RESULTSOf the 107 eligible patients, 66 patients were in the neoadjuvant-chemotherapy group and 41 in control group. There was no statistical difference between these two groups in the distributions of gender, age, tumor staging and pathology. The neoadjuvant-chemotherapy group had longer operative duration (P=0.262), more operative blood loss (P=0.704), more amount of operative transfusion (P=0.811) and total amount of perioperative transfusion (P=0.074), and less amount of post-operative drainage (P=0.061) than those of the control group, but no statistical difference was found among them. No statistical difference was detected between two groups in the mortality (P=0.674) and the morbidity such as arrhythmia (P=0.608), bronchial parietal fistula (P= 0.378 ), pneumonia (P=0.622) and respiratory failure (P=0.285).
CONCLUSIONSNeoadjuvant chemotherapy does not exert significant influence on the safety of perioperative patients with NSCLC.

To explore the antiviral activity of nano-realgar against herpes simplex virus Type II (HSV-2) in vitro.
Methods: Acyclovir (ACV) as a positive control, the cytotoxicity of nano-realgar at different concentrations (including 200.00, 150.00, 100.00, 50.00, 25.00, 12.50, 6.25, 3.13, 1.54, 0.78, 0.39 and 0 mg/L) on normal Vero cells were determined by 3-(4,5-dimethyl-2-thiazolyl)-2,5-diphenyl-2-H-tetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay. HSV-2 virus titer was determined by plaque assay, and the Vero cells model of HSV-2 infection was established. Subsequently, the antiviral effects of nano-realgar at different concentrations (including 20.00, 10.00, 5.00, 2.50, 1.25, 0.63, 0.31, 0.15, 0.08, 0.04 and 0 mg/L) on infected cells model were evaluated by the observation of cytopathic effect (CPE) and MTT method under the 3 modes including pre-treatment, treatment and direct inactivation.
Results: The 50% cytotoxic concentration (CC50) of nano-realgar on Vero cells was 37.15 mg/L. The titer of HSV-2 was 7.30 log PFUs/mL. In the 3 modes, the half-maximal effective concentration (EC50) of nano-realgar on HSV-2 infected Vero cells were 0.13, 1.80 and 0.52 mg/L, and the corresponding therapeutic index (TI) were 285.77, 20.64, 71.44, respectively. The TI value of nano-realgar on pre-treatment mode was higher than that of nano-realgar on treatment and direct inactivation modes.
Conclusion: Nano-realgar can play a good anti-HSV-2 activity in the 3 modes (pre-treatment, treatment and direct inactivation), and the anti-HSV-2 efficacy of nano-realgar on pre-treatment mode is better than that of nano-realagr on other 2 modes.

OBJECTIVE:
To investigate the development present situation of the department of critical care medicine in Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region (hereinafter referred to as Inner Mongolia), in order to promote the standardized and homogeneous development of critical care medicine in Inner Mongolia, and also provide a reference for discipline construction and resource allocation.
METHODS:
A survey study was conducted in comprehensive intensive care unit (ICU) of tertiary and secondary hospitals in Inner Mongolia by online questionnaire survey and telephone data verification. The questionnaire was based on the Guidelines for the Construction and Management of Intensive Care Units (Trial) (hereinafter referred to as the Guidelines) issued by the National Health Commission in 2009 and the development trend of the discipline. The questionnaire covered six aspects, including hospital basic information, ICU basic information, personnel allocation, medical quality management, technical skill and equipment configuration. The questionnaire was distributed in September 2022, and it was filled out by the discipline leaders or department heads of each hospital.
RESULTS:
As of October 24, 2022, a total of 101 questionnaires had been distributed, 85 questionnaires had been recovered, and the questionnaire recovery rate had reached 84.16%, of which 71 valid questionnaires had been collected in a total of 71 comprehensive ICU. (1) There were noticeable regional differences in the distribution of comprehensive ICU in Inner Mongolia, with a relatively weak distribution in the east and west, and the overall distribution was uneven. The development of critical care medicine in Inner Mongolia was still lacking. (2) Basic information of hospitals: the population and economy restricted the development of ICU. The average number of comprehensive ICU beds in the western region was only half of that in the central region (beds: 39.0 vs. 86.0), and the average number of ICU beds in the eastern region was in the middle (83.6 beds), which was relatively uneven. (3) Basic information of ICU: among the 71 comprehensive ICU surveyed, there were 44 tertiary hospitals and 27 secondary hospitals. The ratio of ICU beds to total beds in tertiary hospitals was significantly lower than that in secondary hospitals [(1.59±0.81)% vs. (2.11±1.07)%, P < 0.05], which were significantly lower than the requirements of the Guidelines of 2%-8%. The utilization rate of ICU in tertiary and secondary hospitals [(63.63±22.40)% and (44.65±20.66)%, P < 0.01] were both lower than the bed utilization rate required by the Guidelines (75% should be appropriate). (4) Staffing of ICU: there were 376 doctors and 1 117 nurses in tertiary hospitals, while secondary hospitals had 122 doctors and 331 nurses. There were significant differences in the composition ratio of the titles of doctors, the degree of doctors, and the titles of nurses between tertiary and secondary hospitals (all P < 0.05). Most of the doctors in tertiary hospitals had intermediate titles (attending physicians accounted for 41.49%), while most of the doctors in secondary hospitals had junior titles (resident physicians accounted for 43.44%). The education level of doctors in tertiary hospitals was generally higher than that in secondary hospitals (doctors: 2.13% vs. 0, masters: 37.24% vs. 8.20%). The proportion of nurses in tertiary hospitals was significantly lower than that in secondary hospitals (17.01% vs. 24.47%). The ratio of ICU doctors/ICU beds [(0.64±0.27)%, (0.59±0.34)%] and ICU nurses/ICU beds [(1.76±0.56)%, (1.51±0.48)%] in tertiary and secondary hospitals all failed to meet the requirements above 0.8 : 1 and 3 : 1 of the Guidelines. (5) Medical quality management of ICU: compared with secondary hospitals, the proportion of one-to-one drug-resistant bacteria care in tertiary hospitals (65.91% vs. 40.74%), multimodal analgesia and sedation (90.91% vs. 66.67%), and personal digital assistant (PDA) barcode scanning (43.18% vs. 14.81%) were significantly higher (all P < 0.05). (6) Technical skills of ICU: in terms of technical skills, the proportion of bronchoscopy, blood purification, jejunal nutrition tube placement and bedside ultrasound projects carried out in tertiary hospitals were higher than those in secondary hospitals (84.09% vs. 48.15%, 88.64% vs. 48.15%, 61.36% vs. 55.56%, 88.64% vs. 70.37%, all P < 0.05). Among them, the placement of jejunal nutrition tube, bedside ultrasound and extracorporeal membrane oxygenation were mainly completed independently in tertiary hospitals, while those in secondary hospitals tended to be completed in cooperation. (7) Equipment configuration of ICU: in terms of basic equipment, the ratio of the total number of ventilators/ICU beds in tertiary and secondary hospitals [0.77% (0.53%, 1.07%), 0.88% (0.63%, 1.38%)], and the ratio of injection pump/ICU beds [1.70% (1.00%, 2.56%), 1.25% (0.75%, 1.88%)] didn't meet the requirements of the Guidelines. The equipment ratio was insuffcient, which means that the basic needs of development had not been met yet.
CONCLUSIONS
The development of comprehensive ICU in Inner Mongolia has tended to mature, but there is still a certain gap in the development scale, personnel ratio and instruments and equipment compared with the Guidelines. Moreover, the comprehensive ICU appears the characteristics of relatively weak eastern and western regions, and the overall distribution is uneven. Therefore, it is necessary to increase efforts to invest in the construction of the department of critical care medicine.
