OBJECTIVE To establish a closed-loop management system for the whole-process traceability of outpatient drugs based on internet of things （IoT） and blockchain technology， and evaluate its implementation effects. METHODS A closed-loop management system for the whole-process traceability of outpatient drugs covering the entire drug lifecycle was designed using drug traceability codes integrated with IoT and blockchain technology. System effectiveness was evaluated from three dimensions： work efficiency， medication management quality and data safety by comparing indicators such as the acceptance time of incoming drugs and the number of collected drug traceability codes before the system implementation （October to December 2024） and after the system implementation （January to March 2025）. RESULTS A closed-loop management system for the whole-process traceability of outpatient drugs， centered around the drug traceability code management system， was successfully established. The acceptance time for incoming drugs was shortened from （4.65±0.26） h before implementation to （0.34±0.08） h after implementation （P＜ 0.05）. The number of collected drug traceability codes increased from 419 018 to 1 236 522， and the coverage rate of traceability codes rose from 28.36% to 89.88% （P＜0.05）. The time pharmacists spent on drug expiry management per week decreased from （128.40±19.20） min to （0.56±0.13） min （P＜0.05）， and the dispensing time for a single prescription （excluding a part of injections and repackaged drugs） was reduced from （143.25±17.67） s to （15.24±10.08） s （P＜0.05）. The time for drug return was reduced from 129.90 （122.32， 137.00） s to 104.36 （89.91， 117.33） s（P＜0.05）； the number of drug dispensing errors decreased from 2 cases to 0 cases. After the system was launched， there were no data security incidents in our outpatient pharmacy. CONCLUSIONS The constructed closed-loop management system for the whole-process traceability of outpatient drugs can significantly enhance drug traceability accuracy and drug management quality， improve pharmacist work efficiency， and reduce drug management risks， thus providing a feasible solution for the digital transformation of hospital pharmaceutical services.

ObjectiveTo establish a polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism （PCR-RFLP） method for rapid distinguishing Periplocae Cortex from Acanthopanacis Cortex and Lycii Cortex， so as to avoid the influence of genetic confusion on drug safety. MethodThe DSS-tagged sequences of Periplocae Cortex were obtained from the Chloroplast Genome Information Resource （CGIR） and analyzed to find the enzymatic cleavage sites that were different from those of Acanthopanacis Cortex and Lycii Cortex. The specific enzymatic cleavage site， Cla I， of Periplocae Cortex was selected， on the basis of which the primers for PCR-RFLP were designed. Furthermore， the factors such as annealing temperature， number of cycles， Taq enzyme， PCR instruments， and enzymatic treatment time that may influence PCR-RFLP were studied. The established PCR-RFLP method was applied to the identification of Periplocae Cortex， Acanthopanacis Cortex， and Lycii Cortex samples produced in different regions. ResultThe PCR-RFLP at the annealing temperature of 59 ℃ and with 40 cycles showed clear bands of the samples. When the enzyme digestion time was 30 min. The reaction produced the target bands at about 140 bp and 290 bp for both Periplocae Cortex and its original plant and only a band at about 430 bp for Acanthopanacis Cortex， Lycii Cortex， and their original plants. The method can accurately distinguish Periplocae Cortex from its confounders Acanthopanacis Cortex and Lycii Cortex. ConclusionThe PCR-RFLP method for distinguishing Periplocae Cortex from Acanthopanacis Cortex and Lycii Cortex was established. It has high stability， sensitivity， and applicability， providing a reference for the quality control of Periplocae Cortex， Acanthopanacis Cortex， and Lycii Cortex.

Objective To construct a nomogram model for predicting the risk of in-hospital death in CHF patients by using noninvasive hemodynamic monitoring combined with age,DBP,CRP and renal insufficiency(serum creatinine≥ 442 μmol/L).Methods A total of 223 elderly patients with acute onset of CHF admitted in First,Second Medical Centre of Chinese PLA General Hos-pital from September 2022 to March 2023 were recruited in this study.According to their clinical outcomes,they were divided into survival group(196 cases)and death group(27 cases).Based on the in-hospital death and other related indicators,a nomogram model was constructed to predict the risk factors of in-hospital death in CHF.Results Noninvasive hemodynamic mornitoring indi-cated that the death group had significantly higher LVEF and LCWI values but lower LVEDV value than the survival group(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that age(OR=1.131,95％CI:1.052-1.213,P=0.001),DBP(OR=0.932,95％CI:0.882-0.982,P=0.011),CRP(OR=1.171,95％CI:1.021-1.352,P=0.024),LVEDV(OR=0.984,95％CI:0.962-0.992,P=0.011)and renal insufficiency(OR=5.863,95％CI:1.351-1.731,P=0.004)were independent risk factors for the short-term prognosis of the elderly CHF patients.The AUC value of the nomogram model was 0.902(95％CI:0.819-0.948,P＜0.05),and calibration curve analysis showed the C-index was 0.902,indicating accurate predictive perform-ance.Conclusion Age,DBP,LVEDV,CRP and renal insufficiency are independent risk factors for the short-term prognosis of the elderly CHF patients.

Objective:To investigate the perinatal risk factors and correlation between bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) and retinopathy of prematurity (ROP).Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed on 173 preterm infants born at less than 32 weeks' gestation with BPD who were admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) of the Women and Children's Hospital of Qingdao University from June 2017 to July 2022. According to the diagnostic criteria for ROP, these preterm infants were divided into the ROP group ( n=64) and the non-ROP group ( n=109). Chi-square test, two independent samples t-test, and Mann-Whitney U test were used to compare the general data, treatment, and the incidence of complications between the two groups. Multivariate logistic stepwise regression analysis was used to analyze the independent risk factors of ROP in preterm infants with BPD and the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was drawn to analyze the predictive value of independent risk factors on ROP. The correlation between the severity of BPD and the incidence of ROP was analyzed. Results:The gestational age at birth [(28.0±1.1) vs. (28.8±1.2) weeks, t=4.01], the birth weight [(1 075.9±141.4) vs. (1 143.2±168.6) g, t=2.68], the partial pressure of carbon dioxide [42.5 mmHg (1 mmHg=0.133 kPa) (34.0-51.0 mmHg) vs. 47.0 mmHg (39.0-54.0 mmHg), Z=－2.31], and the total fluid intake on the first day of birth [80.0 ml (72.3-88.7 ml) vs. 83.6 ml (76.6-92.8 ml), Z=－2.28] in the ROP group were all lower than those in the non-ROP group (all P<0.05). While the prothrombin time [15.7 s (14.1-17.7 s) vs. 14.6 s (13.1-16.7 s), Z=－2.17], activated partial thromboplastin time [64.7 s (52.9-77.9 s) vs. 55.8 s (48.4-68.9 s), Z=－2.12], the proportion of patients treated with pulmonary surfactant [71.9% (46/64) vs. 49.5% (54/109), χ 2=8.25], the total duration of oxygen supplementation [50.5 d (40.0-64.0 d) vs. 45.0 d (37.0-52.0 d), Z=－2.77], the duration of invasive ventilation [5.0 d (1.0-11.0 d) vs. 1.0 d (0.0-5.0 d), Z=－4.03], the duration of noninvasive ventilation or high-flow oxygen therapy [(31.7±12.7) vs. (26.4±13.1) d, t=－2.59], and the incidence of neonatal respiratory distress syndrome [76.6% (49/64) vs. 57.8% (63/109), χ 2=6.22] were increased in the ROP group (all P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the proportion of BPD treated with corticosteroids between the ROP and non-ROP groups [60.3% (38/63) vs. 74.3% (81/109), χ 2=3.67, P=0.055]. Multivariate logistic stepwise regression analysis showed that smaller gestational age ( OR=1.599, 95% CI: 1.126-2.272, P=0.009), less fluid intake on the first day ( OR=1.033, 95% CI: 1.004-1.062, P=0.024), and longer duration of invasive ventilation ( OR=1.076, 95% CI:1.017-1.138, P=0.011) were independent risk factors for ROP in BPD infants, while glucocorticoid treatment was an independent protective factor ( OR=0.378, 95% CI:0.173-0.827, P=0.015). Most patients with mild or moderate BPD did not develop ROP [64.6% (73/113) and 66.7% (34/51)], while those with severe BPD were more likely to be complicated by ROP (7/9) ( χ 2=6.84, P=0.033). Conclusions:BPD infants with smaller gestational age, longer duration of invasive ventilation, and less fluid intake on the first day of birth are more likely to develop ROP, while glucocorticoid therapy can reduce the incidence of ROP in this population. Severe BPD may increase the risk of ROP in infants.

Objective To observe the effect of ultrasound-guided iliopsoas plane block(IPB)on the quality of postoperative recovery in patients undergoing hip arthroplasty.Methods Sixty patients who underwent hip arthroplasty were selected,37 males and 23 females,aged 40-79 years,BMI 18-30 kg/m2,ASA physical status Ⅰ-Ⅲ.The patients were divided into two groups by random number table method:the iliopsoas plane block group(group IPB)and the femoral nerve block(FNB)group(group FNB),30 pa-tients in each group.Before anesthesia induction,IPB was performed with 0.5%ropivacaine 10 ml and lat-eral femoral cutaneous nerve block was performed with 0.5%ropivacaine 5 ml in group IPB.And FNB was performed with 0.5%ropivacaine 10 ml and lateral femoral cutaneous nerve block was performed with 0.5%ropivacaine 5 ml in group FNB.The dosages of propofol,remifentanil,and cis-atracurium during operation were recorded.The quality of recovery-15(QoR-15)scale was evaluated preoperatively and postoperatively 1 day,2 and 3 days.The max VAS(VASmax)pain score and manual muscle test(MMT)score of quadri-ceps muscle were recorded 12,24,and 48 hours after surgery.The time of getting out of bed for the first time,opioid dosage,and patient satisfaction were recorded.The incidence of nerve injury,vascular injury,puncture site infection,and local anesthetic poisoning were recorded.The postoperative complications of diz-ziness,nausea and vomiting,deep vein thromboses,and elirium were also recorded.Results There was no significant difference in the dosage of propofol,remifentanil,and cis-atracurium between the two groups.Compared with group FNB,the QoR-15 scale score in group IPB was significantly higher 1 day,2 and 3 days after operation(P＜0.05).Compared with group FNB,the MMT scores of quadriceps muscle was sig-nificantly higher in group IPB 12 and 24 hours after surgery(P＜0.05),and the first time of getting out of bed was shortened in group IPB(P＜0.05).However,there were no significant differences in the VASmax pain score,MMT score of quadriceps muscle 48 hours after surgery,opioid dosage,and patient satisfaction between the two groups.No nerve block related complications were found in both groups.There were no sig-nificant differences in postoperative complications between the two groups.Conclusion The iliopsoas plane block can improve the quality of postoperative recovery and accelerate the recovery of patients with hip re-placement,and the effect is better than that of femoral nerve block.

Objective:To explore the value of cardiodynamicsgram (CDG) obtained from electrocardiogram (ECG) data by radial basis functionradial basis function (RBF) neural network in early diagnosis of patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS).Methods:Retrospective analysis method was used. Patients with chest pain as the main initial symptom in the emergency department of Baoan District People's Hospital of Shenzhen from October 2021 to September 2022 were enrolled. Baseline data were collected, including gender, age, smoking history, family history of coronary heart disease and history of hypertension, diabetes, hyperlipidemia, and atherosclerosis. The first 12-lead ECG was recorded after admission to the emergency department, and electrocardiodynamics analysis was performed to generate CDG. Receiver operator characteristic curve (ROC curve) was plotted to analyze the value of CDG and ECG in the early diagnosis of ACS and non-ST segment elevation ACS (NSTE-ACS). Sensitivity, specificity, area under the ROC curve (AUC), and 95% confidence interval (95% CI) were calculated. CDG and coronary angiography results of 3 patients with ACS with normal ECG were observed and analyzed. Non-ACS patients with normal ECG but positive CDG were followed for 30 days for adverse cardiovascular events. Results:A total of 384 patients with chest pain were included, including 169 patients with ACS and 215 patients without ACS. The proportion of male (87.0% vs. 53.0%), smoking history (37.9% vs. 12.1%), hypertension (46.2% vs. 22.3%), diabetes (24.3% vs. 7.9%), hyperlipidemia (55.0% vs. 14.0%) and history of atherosclerosis (22.5% vs. 2.3%) in ACS group were significantly higher than those in non-ACS group (all P < 0.05). The ROC curve showed that the AUC of CDG diagnosis of ACS was higher than that of ECG [AUC (95% CI): 0.88 (0.66-0.76) vs. 0.71 (0.84-0.92)], the sensitivity was 92.8%, 78.6%, and the specificity was 83.3%, 64.2%, respectively. The AUC of CDG diagnosis of NSTE-ACS was higher than that of ECG [AUC (95% CI): 0.85 (0.80-0.90) vs. 0.63 (0.56-0.69)], the sensitivity was 87.1%, 61.3%, and the specificity was 83.3%, 64.2%, respectively. CDG of 3 patients with ACS with normal ECG showed disordered state, and coronary angiography showed ≥70% stenosis of major coronary branches. Of 215 non-ACS patients, 20 had a normal ECG but positive CDG, and 3 developed ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) within 30 days, and 2 developed unstable angina (UA) within 30 days. Conclusion:CDG has high value in early diagnosis of ACS patients and is expected to become an important means of early diagnosis of ACS in emergency.

Objective:To investigate the relationship between adiponectin (ADIPOQ) gene polymorphism and postpartum type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in pregnant women with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM).Methods:A retrospective study was conducted on 236 GDM postpartum women admitted to the Affiliated Hospital of Jining Medical College from June 2020 to June 2021 as observation subjects. They were divided into a T2DM group and a non T2DM group based on the occurrence of T2DM after delivery. The clinical data of the two groups were compared. The double deoxygenation end termination method was used to detect the single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) of the ADIPOQ gene, and the four loci rs17366568, rs822395, rs1501299, and rs2241766 were classified. The relationship between ADIPOQ genotype polymorphism and postpartum T2DM was analyzed using a logistic regression model.Results:The G allele carrying the rs2241766 locus in ADIPOQ gene was negatively correlated with the occurrence of T2DM ( OR=0.71, 0.68, P<0.05). Compared with T2DM patients with TT genotype, the GT+ GG genotype at the rs2241766 locus had a lower risk of occurrence for gestational age ≥2 and HbA 1c>85%. Similarly, T2DM patients with pre pregnancy body mass index (BMI)>25 kg/m 2 were more likely to be carriers of the rs2241766 TT genotype ( P=0.026). The (GT+ TT) genotype carrying the T allele at the rs1501299 locus was a protective factor for gestational age and HbA 1c in T2DM patients. Conclusions:The rs2241766 and rs1501299 polymorphisms of the ADIPOQ gene are associated with susceptibility to postpartum T2DM in GDM women. Individuals with rs2241766 and rs1501299 mutant genotypes belong to the high-risk population for T2DM.

Objective: To systematically evaluate the detection rate of prenatal depression in Chinese women, so as to provide the reference for mental health care during pregnancy among women. Methods: Publications pertaining to the detection rate of prenatal depression in Chinese women were retrieved from international and national databases from inception to July 30, 2023, including CNKI, Wanfang Data, VIP, PubMed and other databases. The Stata 17.0 software was used for meta analysis, sensitivity analysis was performed using the leave-one-out method, and the publication bias was evaluated using funnel plot and Egger's test. Results: A total of 5 687 publications were retrieved, and 60 studies were finally included, with 58 in Chinese and 2 in English, 51 of medium quality and 9 of high quality, and 114 168 participants. The results of meta-analysis showed that the overall detection rate of prenatal depression in Chinese women was 23.7% (95%CI: 20.0%-27.5%). The detection rates of prenatal depression in the first, second and third trimesters were 22.1% (95%CI: 15.5%-28.6%), 16.3% (95%CI: 12.0%-20.6%) and 19.9% (95%CI: 16.0%-23.7%), in Eastern and Midwestern China were 19.7% and 27.5%, and in women with an education level of junior high school or below and high school or above were 27.2% and 17.9%, respectively, with statistically significant differences (all P<0.05). Sensitivity analysis showed that the study results were stable. There were publication bias in the results of overall detection rate of prenatal depression, and detection rates in the second and third trimester. Conclusions The overall detection rate of prenatal depression in Chinese women ranges from 20.0% to 27.5%. There are differences in the detection rate of prenatal depression in different pregnancies, with the highest detection rate in the first trimester.

Objective: To investigate the levels of cytidine/uridine monophosphate kinase 2(CMPK2) expression in CD4+T cells of systemic lupus erythematosus(SLE) patients and its correlation with clinical indicators. Additionally, to explore whether CMPK2 can induce pyroptosis in CD4+T cells of SLE patients through NLRP3, potentially providing a new target for the diagnosis and treatment of SLE. Methods: RT-qPCR and Western blot analyses were used to assess the gene and protein expression levels of CMPK2 in SLE CD4+T cells and healthy controls(HC). Pearson or Spearman correlation analysis was performed to evaluate the relationship between CMPK2 mRNA expression levels and clinical indicators. Subsequently, the expression levels of pyroptosis-related proteins, including NLRP3, apoptosis-associated speck-like protein containing a CARD(ASC), caspase-1, gasdermin D(GSDMD), and the N-terminal domain of GSDMD(GSDMD-N), were examined in SLE CD4+T cells and HC. Furthermore, the protein expression levels of NLRP3, ASC, caspase-1, GSDMD, and GSDMD-N were detected after silencingCMPK2in SLE CD4+T cells. Results: CMPK2 expression was significantly elevated in SLE CD4+T cells, exhibiting a positive correlation with SLE disease activity index(SLEDAI), anti-dsDNA antibody, anti-nucleosome antibody, anti-C1q antibody, and a negative correlation with complement C3 and C4 levels. Additionally, the expression levels of pyroptosis-related proteins, including NLRP3, ASC, caspase-1, GSDMD, and GSDMD-N significantly increased in SLE CD4+T cells(P<0.05), Moreover, the levels of cytokines IL-1β and IL-18 in the cell culture supernatants were elevated, and there was a notable increase in the rate of cellular pyroptosis(P<0.05). Silencing CMPK2 led to a reduction in the levels of these markers(P<0.05). Conclusion CMPK2 is highly expressed in SLE CD4+T cells and may serve as a diagnostic marker for SLE. Moreover, it is likely involved in the pathogenesis of SLE by promoting CD4+T cell pyroptosis through NLRP3.
