ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of Schisandrae Chinensis Fructus lignans on schizophrenia induced by dizocilpine maleate （MK-801） in mice and to clarify its mechanism. MethodsMale mice of 4-6 weeks old were randomized into blank， model， positive drug， and low-， medium-， and high-dose （40， 80， 160 mg·kg^-1， respectively） Schisandrae Chinensis Fructus lignans groups. The blank group was administrated with distilled water， and the other groups were injected with 0.5 mg·kg^-1 MK-801 to induce schizophrenia symptoms. Meanwhile， risperidone was injected at 0.2 mg·kg^-1 in the positive drug group， and mice in the intervention groups were injected with corresponding drugs for 14 consecutive days. The behavioral changes of mice were observed by autonomous activity test， open field test， forced swimming test， and water maze test. The levels of dopamine （DA） and 5-hydroxytryptamine （5-HT） in the brain and tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α） and nuclear factor-κB （NF-κB） in peripheral blood were quantified by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA）. The changes in the prefrontal lobe of mice were observed by hematoxylin-eosin staining， and the changes of the hippocampal tissue were observed by Nissl staining. The protein levels of silencing information regulatory factor 1 （SIRT1） and forkhead box protein O3a （FoxO3a） in the hippocampus of mice were determined by Western blot. ResultsCompared with the model group， low， medium， and high doses of Schisandrae Chinensis Fructus lignans reduced the total number of autonomous activities， total distance in the open field test， immobile time in the forced swimming test， and levels of TNF-α and NF-κB in peripheral blood （P<0.05）， while increasing the number of platform crossings in the water maze test and DA and 5-HT levels in the brain tissue （P<0.05）. Compared with the model group， risperidone and low， medium， and high doses of Schisandrae Chinensis Fructus lignans improve the neural cell morphology in the CA1 region， with full cells in neatly dense arrangement and exhibiting clear membrane boundary. Schisandrae Chinensis Fructus lignans inhibited the expression of SIRT 1 and FoxO3a in the hippocampus （P<0.05）. ConclusionTo sum up， Schisandrae Chinensis Fructus lignans may improve the behavior of schizophrenic mice by activating the SIRT1/FoxO3a signaling pathway to exert neuroprotective effects.

Objective To investigate the incidence and adverse prognosis of late onset sepsis(LOS)in neonates in neonatal intensive care unit(NICU).Methods A retrospective study was conducted to collect and analyze the peri-natal condition,underlying diseases,invasive procedures,and adverse prognosis of neonates in NICU of a regional maternal and child healthcare hospital from 2019 to 2023.According to whether LOS occurred during hospitaliza-tion,neonates were divided into LOS group and non-LOS group.The LOS group was divided into 5 subgroups based on whether invasive procedures were performed:LOS plus umbilical vein catheter(UVC)group,LOS plus peripherally inserted central catheter(PICC)group,LOS plus sequential catheter group,LOS plus tracheal intuba-tion group,and LOS plus lumbar puncture group,the relationship between LOS and adverse prognosis was ana-lyzed.Results Among 2 945 neonates in NICU,354(12.02％)developed LOS.Comparison between LOS groups and non-LOS group were as follows:in term of perinatal condition of neonates,there were statistically significant difference in weight,gestational age,and whether they were twins between the two groups(all P＜0.001);in term of underlying diseases,there were statistically significant differences in the number of cases of maternal gestational hypertension,neonatal asphyxia,neonatal congenital heart disease,neonatal ventricular dilation,neonatal pneumo-nia,neonatal hyperthyrotropinemia,and neonatal anemia,as well as five invasive procedures between the two groups(all P＜0.05).Compared with the non-LOS group,the incidences of retinopathy of prematurity(ROP),neonatal necrotizing enterocolitis(NNEC),bronchopulmonary dysplasia(BPD),and neonatal respiratory distress syndrome(NRDS)in LOS group were all higher(all P＜0.001).Regression analysis showed that compared with the non-LOS groups,the risk of ROP increased in the LOS group and its subgroups,with the LOS plus sequential catheter group having a 2.27-fold higher risk of ROP than non-LOS group;the risk of NNEC increased in the LOS group and its subgroups,with the LOS plus UVC group having an 8.29-fold higher risk of NNEC than the non-LOS group.Except for the LOS plus UVC group,the risk of BPD increased in the LOS group and other subgroups,with the LOS plus PICC group and LOS plus sequential catheter group having 4.68-and 4.64-fold higher risk of BPD than the non-LOS group,respectively;the risk of NRDS in the LOS plus PICC group was 6.84-fold higher than the non-LOS group(all P＜0.05).The top three pathogens causing LOS were coagulase negative Staphylococcus,Klebsiella pneumoniae,and Escherichia coli.Conclusion LOS can significantly increase the risks of ROP,NNEC,BPD,and NRDS.LOS plus invasive procedures can further increase the risk of adverse prognosis.

Objective:To explore the impact of diabetes mellitus on perioperative myocardial injury and cardiac function recovery in patients undergoing off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG).Methods:The clinical data of 40 patients with coronary heart disease who underwent off-pump CABG in Changsha Central Hospital from 2015 to 2025 were retrospectively included. They were divided into the diabetes group (20 cases) and the control group (20 cases) according to whether they had type 2 diabetes mellitus. Myocardial injury markers (creatine kinase isoenzyme, troponin I, lactate dehydrogenase) before surgery, on the 1st and 3rd days after surgery and before discharge, as well as cardiac function indicators (B-type natriuretic peptide, left ventricular ejection fraction) before surgery and before discharge were compared between the two groups. The postoperative recovery speed (mechanical ventilation time, intensive care unit stay, vasoactive drug use time, postoperative hospital stay) was also compared between the two groups.Results:Before surgery, there were no statistically significant differences in myocardial injury markers and cardiac function indicators between the two groups (all P>0.05). On the 3rd day after surgery, lactate dehydrogenase in the diabetes group was significantly higher than that in the control group ( P<0.05), while there were no statistically significant differences in creatine kinase isoenzyme and troponin I between the two groups (all P>0.05). Before discharge, the levels of creatine kinase isoenzyme and B-type natriuretic peptide in the diabetes group were significantly higher than those in the control group (all P<0.05), and the left ventricular ejection fraction was significantly lower than that in the control group ( P<0.05). Compared with the control group, the diabetes group had significantly longer mechanical ventilation time, intensive care unit stay, and postoperative hospital stay (all P<0.05), but there was no statistically significant difference in the use time of vasoactive drugs ( P>0.05). Conclusions:For patients with coronary heart disease complicated with diabetes mellitus, their preoperative cardiac status is comparable to that of patients without diabetes mellitus, but they show a characteristic dynamic injury pattern after surgery: early elevation of lactate dehydrogenase suggests susceptibility to subcellular injury, and long-term abnormalities of creatine kinase isoenzyme, B-type natriuretic peptide, and decrease in left ventricular ejection fraction indicate myocardial repair disorders. Compared with patients without diabetes mellitus, those with diabetes mellitus require a longer recovery time after off-pump CABG, and targeted perioperative management strategies are urgently needed.

Objective:To investigate influence of different phantoms on the results of quality control for the images of cone beam computed tomography(CBCT)for breast on the basis of quality control for breast CBCT.Methods:Five different manufacturers'phantoms were selected,and they were placed at the position of testing breast in clinical examination to conduct position for phantom according to the method of the national health industry standard WS 818-2023.The analysis focused on the differences of evaluation results of using different phantoms for image quality on the basis of a series of parameters included uniformity,resolution of high contrast,resolution of low contrast,and CT value of water in scanning images of different phantoms.Data collection and image reconstruction were performed respectively by using commonly clinical procedures.Corresponding module images were selected from the reconstructed images of standard breast phantom.The common layer thickness and projection method of the system were set to record and analyze data.Results:The image uniformity of measured results of the five phantoms were respectively 42.37±2.01,-5.83±0.15,3.76±0.15,2.16±0.06,3.60±0.10.The differences of the image uniformities among the five phantoms were statistically significant(F=1310.02,P<0.001),and the differences of the CT values of the measured water among the five phantoms were statistically significant(F=9 846.46,P<0.001).The differences in the resolution of low contrast among them were also statistically significant(F=27.50,P<0.001).However,the results of the resolution of high contrast were stability,and there was no significant difference in that among the five phantoms.Conclusion:The measured results of quality control of different phantoms are different.

OBJECTIVE To explore the implementation and standardized management of infection control core ele-ments in grass-roots medical institutions within county-level medical communities.METHODS From Mar.2024 to Apr.2024,the current status of implementation of infection control core elements in the grass-roots medical institu-tions within county-level medical communities was investigated by means of questionnaire survey and qualita-tive interview,and the implementation strategies were further explored.RESULTS The infection management or-ganizational system and functions of the two county-level medical institutions within the county medical communi-ties were completed,there is no independent hospital infection management department in the primary medical in-stitutions.The infection management personnel in the 16 grass-roots medical institutions were part-time person-nel,the personnel with the educational background below junior college accounted for 84.21％,the personnel with the professional background of nursing accounted for 100.00％,the personnel with less than 5 years of working experience accounted for 78.95％,none of them had an on-the-job training certificate.The monitoring programs of the county-level medical institutions within the county medical communities were completed,there was no infec-tion management monitoring information platform in the grass-roots medical institutions.The infection cases,hand hygiene,environmental health and occupational exposures were monitored by people.The grass-roots medi-cal institutions had the highest requirements for various professional trainings and increase of training contents of prevention and control of public health infectious diseases(100.00％).The county-level medical institutions had inadequate capabilities of professional examination of medical equipment replacement and construction of medi-cal architecture.CONCLUSION It is necessary for the country and local levels of governments to attach great importance to the implementation of the infection control core elements in the grass-roots medical institutions within the county-lev-el medical communities,establish the county-level regional information platform,formulate the corresponding surveil-lance indexes and homogenized management systems,complete the cultivation of talents,and offer financial support.

Objective To understand the economic losses due to healthcare-associated infection(HAI)in patients after Da Vinci robotic thoracic surgery,and provide basis for preventing and controlling HAI after robotic surgery.Methods Patients who underwent Da Vinci robotic surgery from April 2019 to April 2023 were retrospective stu-died.Patients were divided into HAI group and non-HAI group based on the occurrence of postoperative infection.Through 1∶1 propensity score matching(PSM),31 cases were included in each group,economic losses of two groups of patients were compared.Results A total of 921 patients who underwent Da Vinci robotic thoracic surgery were included in the study,51 cases with HAI(HAI group)and 870 without HAI(non-HAI group).After 1∶1 PSM,31 cases were included in each group.Four covariates were compared between two groups of patients before PSM,namely gender,age,comorbidities,and the American Society of Anesthesiologists(ASA)grading,all with statistically significant differences(all P＜0.05).After PSM,distribution of the above covariates reached equilib-rium between the two groups(both P＞0.05).The median total expense for HAI group before PSM during hospi-talization was 88 711.72 Yuan,while 78 509.46 Yuan for the non-HAI group.The direct economic losses caused by HAI after Da Vinci robot surgery was 10 202.26 Yuan,mainly increased by expense of medicine,nursing,laborato-ry diagnosis,etc.Difference in western medicine expense was the highest(8 839.12 Yuan),out of which expense of antimicrobial agents accounted for the highest proportion(73.55％).Difference in daily hospitalization expense between HAI-group and non-HAI group was 502.38 Yuan.Length of hospital stay of patients in HAI group and non-HAI group were(21.59±10.62)and(13.92±9.21)days,respectively,with statistical differences(all P＜0.05).Conclusion The occurrence of HAI in patients undergoing Da Vinci robotic thoracic surgery leads to direct economic losses,with obvious increases in expenses of nursing,laboratory diagnosis,western medicine(mainly an-timicrobial agents).Length of hospital stay of patients also prolongs.
