ObjectiveThis paper used the AGREE Ⅱ guideline evaluation tool to evaluate the quality of 14 clinical guidelines for acute myocardial infarction,aiming to provide reference for the formulation and improvement of the guidelines. MethodsClinical guidelines and expert consensus related to acute myocardial infarction were searched by web search. The search period ranges from January 1,2019 to November 1,2024 in CNKI,VIP,Wanfang Data,SinoMed,Web of Science,OVID, the International Guidelines Collaboration Network (GIN),the UK National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE),Yimaitong, and other platforms. Three researchers independently screened the literature and used AGREE Ⅱ to score the screening results. After ensuring that the researchers have a consistent understanding of each guideline,the quality of the guidelines was evaluated. After that,the ratings were analyzed by layer according to the issuing agency,category,method of formulation,and funding situation and compared longitudinally by rating time. The clinical guidelines and expert consensus were compared in terms of content and evidence. ResultsA total of 14 guidelines and consensus were included. The results of AGREE Ⅱ in the six areas in descending order were scope and purpose (62.82%±10.43%),rigor (62.40%±12.77%),editorial independence (62.11%±22.26%),participants (61.42%±11.65%),clarity of expression (59.98%±9.62%),and application (52.94%±16.90%) . Eleven of the guidelines were at level B, and three were at level A. In the stratified analysis,the score of the guideline formulated by the Chinese Medical Doctor Association was lower. There was little difference between the scores of Chinese/Western and Western medicine guidelines. The average score of the guidelines was higher than the consensus. Funded guidelines and consensus scores were higher. In the longitudinal comparison,the highest number of guidelines were developed in 2020 and 2021,while those developed in 2023 scored the highest. In the differential comparison analysis,the content of the guidelines was more comprehensive, and the evidence level was higher,while the content of the consensus was more novel, and the evidence was less. ConclusionThe AGREE Ⅱ score of the clinical guidelines for acute myocardial infarction is generally moderate,and there is room for improvement in terms of applicability. At the same time,the content quality of expert consensus should be improved,and more efforts should be made to develop and apply Chinese medicine guidelines for complications such as heart failure and microcirculatory obstruction after acute myocardial infarction.

Objective:To demonstrate the type of CEBPA gene mutations among patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML), clinical characteristics, and prognostic effect on patient outcomes.Methods:Demographic data, clinical features, laboratory characteristics, and data about treatment and follow-up of 57 patients with CEBPA mutated AML diagnosed at Peking Union Medical College Hospital between April 2016 and November 2022 were collected and analyzed.Results:In total, 57 patients with CEBPA mutation accounted for 16.1% of all the 353 patients with AML, among which 28 patients had CEBPA-bZIPinf and 29 had CEBPA-other. Compared with the CEBPA-other group, the CEBPA-bZIPinf group was younger (54 vs 64 years, P=0.010), de novo AML was more common ( P=0.001), and the level of bone marrow blast was higher (68.0% vs 36.3%, P=0.001). Moreover, 24 patients from the CEBPA-bZIPinf group and 19 from the CEBPA-other group received chemotherapy. The one-course complete remission (CR) rate of the CEBPA-bZIPinf group was significantly higher than that of the CEBPA-other (87.5% vs 47.4%, P=0.010) and CEBPA-wt (87.5% vs 50.3%, P=0.002) groups. After a median follow-up of 11 months, the median OS of the CEBPA-bZIPinf group was significantly longer than that of the CEBPA-wt group (not reached vs 22.1 months, P=0.012) . Conclusion:CEBPA-bZIPinf mutated AML is a unique clinical entity, with a younger age of diagnosis, better response to chemotherapy, and better prognosis.

Objective:To evaluate the effect of preoperative cognitive training on postoperative neurocognitive function in elderly patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) and/or valve surgery.Methods:Seventy-four elderly patients of either sex, of American Society of Anesthesiologists Physical Status classification Ⅲ or Ⅳ, aged 60-90 yr, with body mass index of 19-28 kg/m 2, scheduled for elective CABG or valve surgery under general anesthesia, were divided into 2 groups ( n=37 each) using a computer-generated random number table method: cognitive training group (group CT) and control group (group C). Group CT was instructed to complete a cognitive training once 1 h per day for 5 consecutive days prior to surgery. Group C did not receive any cognitive training before surgery, and routine nursing was performed. At the 7th day after surgery, the patients′ neurocognitive function was evaluated by the Montreal Cognitive Assessment Scale(MoCA), the Postoperative Quality Recovery Scale (PQRS) was used to assess the patients′ recovery status, and the postoperative complications and morality in both groups were recorded. The patients were assessed using the Geriatric Depression Scale, MoCA and PQRS at the 1st month and 3rd month after operation. Results:The MoCA scores were significantly higher at the 7th day, 1st month and 3rd month postoperatively than in group C ( P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the postoperative case fatality rate and incidence of complications between the two groups ( P>0.05). Significant difference was observed in PQRS scores between the two groups at the 7th day after surgery ( P<0.05), but there were no significant differences in the PQRS scores and Geriatric Depression Scale scores between the two groups at the 1st month and 3rd month after operation ( P>0.05). Conclusions:The cognitive training can improve postoperative neurocognitive function in elderly patients undergoing CABG and/or valve surgery.

Objective:To explore the clinical characteristics and molecular basis for children and adolescents with monogenic diabetes.Methods:A retrospective analysis was carried out for the clinical manifestations and laboratory data of 116 children and adolescents diagnosed with diabetes at Ningbo Women and Children′s Hospital from January 2020 to March 2023. Whole exome sequencing and mitochondrial gene sequencing were carried out on 21 children with suspected monogenic diabetes.Results:A total of 10 cases of monogenic diabetes were diagnosed, all of which were Maturity-onset Diabetes Of the Young (MODY). Six cases of MODY2 were due to GCK gene mutations, 1 case of MODY3 was due to HNF1A gene mutation, 2 cases of MODY12 were due to ABCC8 gene mutations, and 1 case of MODY13 was due to KCNJ11 gene mutation. Nine of the 10 patients with MODY had no typical symptoms of diabetes. A family history of diabetes was significantly more common in the MODY group compared with the T1DM and T2DM groups ( P<0.05). The BMI of the MODY group was higher than that of the T1DM group ( P<0.05). The initial blood glucose level was lower than that of the T1DM group ( P<0.05), and there was no significant difference compared with the T2DM group. The fasting C-peptide level of the MODY group was higher than that of the T1DM group ( P<0.05), and there was no significant difference compared with the T2DM group. Glycosylated hemoglobin of the MODY group was lower than both the T1DM and T2DM groups ( P<0.05). Conclusion:In this study, MODY has accounted for the majority of monogenic diabetes among children and adolescents, and the common mutations were those of the GCK gene in association with MODY2. Blood glucose and glycosylated hemoglobin of children with MODY were slightly increased, whilst the islet cell function had remained, and the clinical manifestations and laboratory tests had overlapped with those of type 2 diabetes. WES and mitochondrial gene sequencing can clarify the etiology of monogenic diabetes and facilitate precise treatment.

Taking " harmony of body and spirit" as the theoretical core in Huangdi Neijing and the functional nature and executive structure of the five emotions system as clues, this paper explores and analyzes the relevant theories of the five emotions system in ancient Chinese medicine literature. It is found that the five emotions system is a highly ordered and integrated collection of five functional states. It often resides in the five zang viscera, it operates between the meridians and the xuanfu through the elevation and movement of the qi, and it is the pivotal point for the operation of the qi and blood of the organism, the interactive conduction of information, and the unity of form, emotion, and qi. Therefore, this paper starts from the point of view of system science. It is proposed that the primordial spirit exercises control over the five emotions and the five emotions provide nutrition to the primordial spirit, and that the two are not " islands of information" but have a dynamic and hierarchical internal connection. The executive structure of the five emotions system, namely, the meridians, the xuanfu, and the five zang viscera, is the pivot, and it is recognized that the operation of the five emotions system is a process with self-organizing characteristics and orderly and eternal motion. We think of the qi, blood, ying, and essence as the basis of occurrence, the meridian as the execution channel, and the xuanfu as the place for the spiritual mechanism to enter and exit; the five zang viscera serve as a dwelling place, and ministerial fire serves as the source of energy. This paper serves as reference for future research related to the executive structure of the five emotions system of traditional Chinese medicine.

Objective:To explore the application effect of LEARNS(L: listen; E: establish; A: adopt; R: reinforce; N: name; S: strengthen) model in health education for patients undergoing coronary computed tomography angiography(CCTA) examination, so as to provide basis for improving image quality and optimizing examination process.Methods:One hundred and sixteen patients who underwent CCTA examination at the Second Hospital of Shanxi Medical University from April to September 2023 were selected as the research subjects by convenience sampling method. A non-concurrent controlled study was conducted, with 58 patients examined from April to June 2023 as the control group to implement conventional health education, and 58 patients examined from July to September 2023 as the observation group to implement LEARNS model health education. The differences in examination knowledge scores, anxiety level, coronary artery image quality, examination duration and health education satisfaction between the two groups were compared.Results:There were 31 males and 27 females in the control group, aged (51.97 ± 9.39) years old. There were 30 males and 28 females in the observation group, aged (53.48 ± 8.95) years old. There was no significant difference in the examination knowledge scores and anxiety level before the intervention between the two groups ( P>0.05). After the intervention, the examination knowledge score of the patients in the observation group was (12.95 ± 1.15) points, which was higher than (9.02 ± 1.55) points in the control group, the difference was statistically significant ( t=-15.53, P<0.05). The acceptance rate of image quality in the observation group was 96.6% (56/58), which was higher than 87.9% (51/58), but the difference was not statistically significant ( χ2=1.93, P>0.05). The proportion of patients with level 1 image quality in the observation group was 81.0%(47/58), which was higher than 55.2%(32/58) in the control group, the difference was statistically significant ( χ2=8.93, P<0.05). The total score of health education satisfaction in the observation group was (39.81 ± 1.81) points, which was higher than (31.19 ± 3.10) points in the control group, the difference was statistically significant ( t=-18.27, P<0.05). The score of anxiety scale and duration of examination in the observation group were (36.81 ± 2.12) points and (6.72 ± 1.02) min respectively, which were significantly lower than (41.12 ± 2.46) points and (9.40 ± 1.49) min in the control group, the differences were statistically significant ( t=10.11, 11.29, both P<0.05). Conclusions:LEARNS model is used for health education of patients undergoing CCTA examination, which helps to improve patients′ knowledge level, health education satisfaction and coronary image quality. It can also alleviate examination anxiety and shorten examination time. It is worthy of promotion.
