Objective To evaluate the relationship between the degree of brain injury during the perioperative period of liver transplantation and postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD).Methods Thirtythree patients,undergoing elective liver transplantation,were enrolled in this study.Before induction of anesthesia (T0),at 5 min before blocking the portal vein (T1),5 min after opening the portal vein (T2),5 min after opening the hepatic artery (T3),and at 24 h after surgery (T4),blood samples were collected from the central vein for determination of the serum concentrations of S1O0β protein and neuron-specific enolase (NSE) by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.Patients were divided into POCD group and control group (group C) according to whether POCD happened within 7 days after surgery.Results Compared with the baseline value at T0,the serum concentrations of S100β protein were significantly increased at T2 and T3,and the serum concentrations of NSE was increased at T3 (P<0.05).There was no significant difference in serum concentrations of S100β and NSE at each time point between group POCD and group C (P>0.05).Conclusion The degree of brain injury during the perioperative period of liver transplantation is not the dominant factor for the development of POCD in the patients.

Objective To retrieve,evaluate and summarize the best evidence summary for prevention and nursing care of pregnancy-induced diastasis recti abdominis and to provide references for clinical practice.Methods We systematically searched computer decision support systems,guideline websites,association official websites and databases for evidence on prevention and nursing care of pregnancy-induced diastasis recti abdominis,including guidelines,expert consensuses,clinical decision-making,systematic reviews and randomized controlled trials.The retrieval period was from the inception of databases to January 2024.There were 4 researchers who evaluated the quality of the included literature independently,extracted and summarized the evidence according to the subject.Results A total of 18 articles were included,including 2 clinical decisions,4 guidelines,5 expert consensuses,3 systematic reviews,and 4 randomized controlled trials.24 pieces of best evidence were summarized from 5 aspects,including the antenatal prevention,team building,nursing assessment,intervention strategies,and effecti-veness evaluation.Conclusion This study summarizes the best evidence summary for prevention and nursing care of pregnancy-induced diastasis recti abdominis,which can provide a reference basis for nurses to manage diastasis recti abdominis and improve the life quality of maternal woman.

African swine fever virus(ASFV)I177L gene deletion vaccine is one of the key directions of African swine fever(ASF)live attenuated vaccine research and development.In order to effec-tively distinguish between the wild-type ASFV strain and the I177L gene-deleted strain,specific primers and probes were designed based on ASFV B646L and I177L genes,respectively.After screening and optimization,a duplex real-time PCR method was developed that can simultaneously detect these two genes.The results showed that ASFV B646L and I177L genes were detected spe-cifically and simultaneously by the method developed without cross-reactions with porcine circovir-us type 2,Seneca virus A,classical swine fever virus,foot-and-mouth disease virus,porcine respira-tory and reproductive syndrome virus.The detection limits of the duplex real-time PCR for recom-binant plasmids pUC57-B646L and pUC57-I177L were 1×103 copies/mL.The intra-and inter-as-say coefficients of variation were less than 4%,respectively.Detection of 122 pork and pork prod-ucts using the duplex real-time PCR developed and the real-time PCR recommended by WOAH showed that the coincidence rates of the two methods for B646L gene detection was 100%with two amplification curves appeared in the positive results of the established methods.The method established in this study can be used for the detection of ASFV I177L gene deletion strains,which provides technical support for ASF surveillance and epidemiological investigation.
