Hot melt extrusion(HME)technology employs thermodynamic and kinetic principles to mix pharmaceutical polymers with crystalline drugs at high temperatures and extrude them,embedding drug molecules within the polymer matrix to form solid dispersions.Due to its solvent-free nature,capability for one-step processing,and support for continuous operation,HME has garnered significant attention in the pharmaceutical industry in recent years.This article introduced the basic principles and development history of HME technology and its marketed drugs.It reviewed the research progress of HME technology in improving drug solubility,masking taste,controlled release,targeted release,oral dispersible films,implant formulations,semi-solid formulations,and 3D printed formulations.Additionally,the article summarized the advantages and limitations of HME technology and provided an outlook on its future development.

Objective To analyze the status quo of exercise compliance in patients with chronic heart failure and its influencing factors.Methods Using convenient sampling method,425 patients with chronic heart failure in General Hospital of Ningxia Medical University from August 2022 to February 2023 were se-lected as the study objects.General data questionnaire,exercise compliance scale,exercise self-efficacy scale,heart-activity fear tampa scale,Pittsburgh sleep quality index,perceptive social support scale and psychological experience scale were used to investigate and analyze the results.Results 415 effective questionnaires were collected,with a recovery rate of 97.65%.The total score of exercise compliance in patients with chronic heart failure was 88.94±17.12.The results of multiple linear regression analysis showed that BMI,hospitalization times and fear of cardiac activity negatively affected patients'exercise compliance,while education level,exer-cise self-efficacy,perceptive social support and retirement positively affected patients'exercise compliance(P＜0.05).Conclusion The overall level of exercise compliance of patients with chronic heart failure is poor,and timely intervention measures should be taken.

To characterize the genomes of different emm-type group A Streptococcus (GAS), their virulence genes and drug resistance profiles in Tianjin City from 2011 to 2024. After PCR, a total of 42 strains with different years and emm types were selected for whole genome sequencing and multi-locus sequence typing (MLST), and the core genomes were used to generate a phylogenetic tree, after which the virulence genes and resistance genes were identified and analyzed, followed by the drug susceptibility test. In this study, the GAS strains were dominated by emm1 (50.0%) and emm12 (40.4%), and the MLST phenotypes were categorized into six types: ST36 (40.4%), ST1274 (26.1%), ST28 (23.8%), ST921 (4.7%), ST46 (2.3%), and ST403 (2.3%). There was a high consistency between their emm-types and ST types. A total of 68 virulence genes were detected in the genomes of 42 GAS strains, involving functional genes encoding exotoxin, bacterial adhesion, extracellular enzymes, etc. The virulence genes they carried were significantly different between emm1-type and emm12-type strains, such as speA. At the same time, the carrying rates of some virulence genes in the same emm-type strains changed with time, such as hyl. The resistance genes were basically the same among different emm-type strains except for the vanSE gene detected in all emm12 strains. The results of drug sensitivity showed that the GAS strains isolated in Tianjin City from 2011 to 2024 were sensitive to penicillin, cefazolin, chloramphenicol, vancomycin, and levofloxacin, while the resistance rates to erythromycin, azithromycin, clarithromycin, and clindamycin ranged from 88.5% to 100.0%, and there was a certain degree of consistency between the resistance phenotypes and the detected resistance genes. Overall, the main emm types and evolutionary features of GAS in Tianjin City from 2011 to 2024 were consistent with the dominant types in China, and the carrying rate of virulence genes and drug resistance genes differed significantly among different emm-type strains, and there were continuous evolution and variation in the prevalence of virulence genes in GAS.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.

Objective:To understand the contamination risk, drug resistance and virulence characteristics of cooked food pathogens in Tianjin.Methods:Pathogenic bacteria were isolated and identified in cooked food sold in Tianjin from 2019 to 2021, drug susceptibility test and whole genome sequencing were conducted for the isolates, and multilocus sequence typing, drug resistance gene, phenotype and virulence gene were analyzed for the data.Results:Ten pathogenic bacteria were isolated from 245 cooked food samples collected. The ST types of 7 Salmonella strains were ST40, ST198, ST14, ST13 and ST155. The two strains of Vibrio parahaemolyticus were ST647 and ST2622 respectively. One strain of Cronobacter sakazakii was ST8 type. All the 6 isolates were drug-resistant, and 3 of them were multidrug-resistant (MDR). A total of 63 drug-resistant genes were predicted in 10 isolates. Two Salmonella strains were ampicillin-chloramphenicol-streptomycin-sulfamethoxazole-tetracycline resistant (MDR-ACSSuT), and both Salmonella strains carried gyrA double mutations (S83F, D87N) and parC mutations (S80I). Vibrio parahaemolyticus mainly carries blaCARB and tet (35) genes, while Cronobacter sakazakii carries only one resistance gene blaCSA-1. A total of 163 virulence genes were predicted from 10 isolates. Conclusions:In this study, pathogenic bacteria are repeatedly detected in quail eggs, warning that other eggs besides chicken eggs should also pay special attention to the risk of contamination. The isolates in this study are all of the prevalent ST type with widespread drug resistance, and MDR-ACSSuT strains should be paid attention to. The key role of gyrA double mutation (S83F, D87N) and parC mutation (S80I) in the development of quinolone resistance should not be ignored. T3SS (typeⅢ secretory system) and T6SS (typeⅥ secretory system) are important virulence gene clusters of Salmonella and Vibrio parahemolyticus.

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) has become a global public health problem. Slowing disease progression is vital in CKD management, and drug therapy is an important part of the treatment for CKD patients. However, the risk for adverse drug event is higher in patients with CKD due to impaired renal function, prolonged disease duration, presence of multimorbidity and polypharmacy. Therefore, it was recommended to promote medication safety in patients with CKD through the following 4 specific strategies: (1) carrying out more studies to improve evidence-based practice for medication in patients with CKD; (2) conducting dose adjustments according to glomerular filtration rate and continuous drug therapy monitoring to a dynamic management of the dose; (3) implementing multidisciplinary care; (4) utilizing appropriate information technology actively.
