Objective To study the connections between PM 2.5 in the air in Jinan city and the outpatient visits in the department of pneumology, the department of cardiology and the department of neurology. Methods Outpatient visits in the department of pneumology, department of cardiology and department of neurology in two comprehensive hospitals in Jinan, air quality and meteorological data were collected. On the basis of controlling confounding factors such as "day of the week" and meteorological data, generalized additive poisson regression model was applied to analyze the effect of PM 2.5 on the outpatients visits. Results While two-day cumulative PM 2.5 was lower than 200 μg/m3, the increase of outpatients visits in the department of pneumology was not substantial along with the increase of PM 2.5. While PM 2.5 was higher than 200 μg/m3 and lower than 400 μg/m3, the outpatient visits were large. Concentration of PM 2.5 in the atmosphere showed a non-linear connection with daily outpatients visits in the Department of Pneumology. Concentra-tion of two-day cumulative PM 2.5 showed a linear connection with the outpatient visits in department of cardiology and department of neurology. Once the two-day cumulative PM 2.5 increased 1 μg/m3, 1 more patient visited the out-patient of department of cardiology and department of neurology. Conclusion With the increase of PM 2.5 concentra-tion in the air, outpatient visits in the department of pneumology, the department of cardiology and the department of neurology have an increasing trend, but the concentration of PM 2.5 has slight different connections with the daily out-patient visits in different departments.

Objective To investigate the relationship between the carotid calcification and the prognosis in patients with ischemic stroke. Methods A total of 522 patients with non-cardiac ischemic stroke registered in the Nanjing Stroke Registry Program (NSRP )from December 2009 to October 2012 were enrolled. All patients underwent head and neck CT angiography (CTA). The original data of CT scan were transmitted into the Siemens workstation. Calcium score measurement was performed using the same reconstruction conditions and Agatston calcium score to measure calcification score. The patients were divided into no (0),mild (0

Objective No consensus has yet been achieved on the relationship of serum albumin with the functional out-come of acute ischemic stroke.The aim of our study was to determine whether the serum albumin level was associated with the short-term functional outcome of acute ischemic stroke in well-nourished patients. Methods Totally, 113 patients with first-ever acute ischemic stroke were recruited from Nanjing Stroke Registration Program between January and June 2015.Baseline data including de-mographic and body parameters, vascular risk factors, and laboratory results were collected.The NIH Stroke Scale ( NIHSS) was used to evaluate the severity of neurological deficits and the modified Rankin Scale ( mRS ) employed to assess the short-term functional outcome.According to the mRS at discharge, the patients were divided into a good outcome group ( mRS<3 ) and a poor out-come group ( mRS≥3 ) .The independent predictors of the short-term functional outcome were evaluated by multivariate logistic regression analysis. Results Of the 113 acute ischemic stroke patients included, 52 (46.0%) were in the good outcome group, and 61 (54.0%) in the poor outcome group.Those in the former group had a significantly higher BMI, lower serum LDL-C, lower WBC count, and lower NIHSS at admission than those in the latter .Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that low serum albumin, NIHSS at admission, and arteriole occlusion were independent predictors of the poor short-term functional outcome ( OR=0.684, 95% CI:0.490-0.956, P=0.026). Conclusion Low serum albumin is an independent predictor of poor short-term functional outcome in acute ischemic stroke patients in well-nourished status.

Objective There is little research on the relationship of gene polymorphism of CYP2C19 and clopidogrel response after percutaneous transluminal angioplasty and stenting ( PTAS) in patients with ischemic cerebrovascular disease.The study aimed to investigate the relationship between gene polymorphism and high on-treatment platelet reactivity ( HTPR ) after PTAS and 6 months of regular dual antiplatelet administration in patients. Methods A total of 145 Chinese patients treated with PTAS in our de-partment from January 2011 to March 2014 were enrolled in this study.According to the gene sequencing, patients were divided into wild-type group(CYP2C19*1/*1,69 cases) and mutation group(heterozygous mutation CYP2C19*1/*2 and homozygous mutation CYP2C19*2/*2, 76 cases).Patients received a 100mg/d aspirin and 75mg/d clopidogrel maintenance dose (MD) as dual anti-platelet therapy after PTAS.The clopidogrel inhibition effect was measured by thrombelastography ( TEG) system 6 months after PTAS. Routine cerebral artery digital subtraction angiography was applied to evaluate whether there was restenosis in stent and logistic regres-sion analysis was used to analyze the influential factors of HTPR after PTAS and clopidogrel adminstration. Results After 6 months'regular administration of clopidogrel after PTAS, the platelet adenosine diphosphate ( ADP ) receptor inhibition rates in wild-type group, heterozygous mutation and homozygous mutation group were respectively (58.43 ±21.98)%, (47.80 ±22.93)%, (37.53 ± 21.84)%.The platelet ADP receptor inhibition rate was significantly decreased compared with wild-type group(P=0.001).Carriers of at least one CYP2C19 loss-of-function ( LOF) allele had a higher frequency of clopidogrel HTPR (35.5% vs17.4 % for patients with and without LOF alleles, respectively;P=0.014) .Using multivariate logistic regression analysis, the carriage of CYP2C19 LOF alleles was an independent predictor of the post-procedure HTPR (OR=2.356, 95% CI:1.053-5.272, P=0.037).The rate of ISR was remarkably higher in patients with at least one CYP2C19*2 alleles compared with wild-type patients(11.8%vs 1.4%, P=0.019) . Conclusion In patients with ischemic cerebrovascular disease, the CYP2C19 LOF allele had significant impact on post-procedure clopidogrel HTPR and the prognosis of ISR after PTAS.

Objective:To investigate HER2 mRNA expression in breast cancer with HER2 immunohistochemistry (IHC) 0 and to analyze the feasibility of distinguishing between the tumor with HER2 μltra-low expression and the one without expression of HER2 (no staining by IHC) by HER2 mRNA level preliminarily.Methods:HER2 mRNA was analyzed by reverse transcription digital PCR in 41 cases of formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded surgical tissue samples of invasive breast cancer obtained between January 2020 and March 2023 at Peking Union Medical College Hospital. The cohort included 21 HER2 IHC 1+ and 20 IHC 0 (12 ultra-low and 8 non-expression of HER2). HER2 mRNA expression level was quantitatively evaluated by the FAM (HER2)/VIC (reference gene) ratio.Results:The expression of HER2 mRNA for the cases with 1+, ultra-low, and non-expression of HER2 by IHC was 0.30 to 1.78 (average 0.90, median 0.82), 0.55 to 1.51 (average 0.93, median 0.90) and 0.22 to 0.78 (average 0.41, median 0.36), respectively. For the mean and median HER2 mRNA levels, there was no significant difference between HER2 IHC 1+ and HER2 ultra-low expression diseases ( P=0.757). A remarkable difference in HER2 gene expression was found between the tumors with 1+ and non-expression of HER2 by IHC ( P=0.002). And, HER2 ultra-low cases contained statistically higher levels of HER2 mRNA compared with non-expression of HER2 subgroup by IHC ( P=0.001). Conclusions:Based on HER2 mRNA, HER2 non-expression and HER2 weak expression (including HER2 IHC 1+ and ultra-low) belong to two different types of the tumor and the disease with HER2 IHC 1+ and HER2 ultra-low expression may be the same. It is necessary to further test the performance of HER2 mRNA detection for stratifying the HER2 weak expression subgroup and to determine the threshold.

With the continuous improvement of medical information and intelligence, multi-modal data fusion technology is increasingly widely used in the medical field. Multi-modal data not only has a large quantity, but also has rich information content, which can provide strong support for clinical nursing decision-making. However, due to the uneven level of informatization and intelligence development among medical institutions, the development and application of nursing decision support system is still in a fragmented state. Based on this, this study explores in depth the current application status and challenges faced by multi-modal data fusion in nursing decision support systems, with the aim of providing reference for the design and improvement of nursing decision support system at all levels of medical institutions in the future.

Tumor-associated macrophages （TAMs）， as the main immune cells in the human body， are key factors in maintaining the homeostasis of the tumor microenvironment. With high plasticity， they can polarize into the classically activated （M1） macrophages or alternatively activated （M2） macrophages under different conditions. M1 macrophages can inhibit tumor growth by phagocytosis， and M2 can inhibit the immune microenvironment to promote tumorigenesis and immune escape. Small molecules of traditional Chinese medicine have been widely studied in gastrointestinal tumors. These small molecules exert anti-tumor activity by enhancing TAM activity and promoting the polarization of macrophages. Targeted intervention in TAMs with these molecules has the potential to inhibit the development of gastrointestinal tumors. This article summarizes the research status and significance of small molecules of traditional Chinese medicine targeting TAMs against gastrointestinal tumors， aiming to provide reference for the future studies in this field.

To better promote the development of film-coated formulations and membrane agents, the present study was carried out to investigate the critical material attributes (CMAs) of different sources and models of HPMC in terms of film-coating performance and the correlation between each of the CMAs and the film-coating-related properties, using 2910 HPMC as the research target. Firstly, various analytical techniques were used to characterize the CMAs and film coating-related properties of HPMC. Secondly, the CMAs and film coating-related properties of HPMC were systematically evaluated by principal component analysis (PCA) and orthogonal partial least-squares discrimination analysis (OPLS-DA). The CMAs and film-coating-related properties of HPMC were systematically evaluated to elucidate the intrinsic relationship between the CMAs and film-coating-related properties of HPMC. The results showed that there were significant differences in viscosity, weight-average molecular weight, film tensile strength, elongation, elastic modulus, dissolution time, and flexibility of HPMCs from different manufacturers. The results of PCA and OPLS-DA analyses indicated that these 11 variables showed some correlations with each other. Both mathematical models showed better differentiation and classification of HPMC samples, and the OPLS-DA model had a better classification effect than the PCA model. Therefore, in this study, the physicochemical properties and the film-forming characteristic of HPMC were comprehensively evaluated, and the correlation between them was further established using PCA and OPLS-DA. The impact degree of different CMAs on the film coating performance of HPMC was clarified, which can be used as an important reference for the selection of excipient quality control programs in excipient production and formulation research and development.
