Objective To explore the construction of heart preservation model of empty beating donor based on extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO). Methods From January 2022 to August 2023, 20 Guangxi Bama miniature pigs weighing 25-30 kg were selected, half male and half female. Under general anesthesia and heparinization, a midline thoracotomy was performed. The pericardium was cut after freeing the anterior and posterior vena cavae, and a perfusion needle was inserted near the brachiocephalic artery in the ascending aorta, connected to a blood collection bag to collect 500-600 mL of blood. The anterior and posterior vena cavae were ligated, the aorta was blocked and perfused with HTK solution to stop the heart beating. The superior and inferior vena cavae were cut off, the right pulmonary vein was decompressed, the aorta and left and right pulmonary arteries and veins were cut off, and the whole heart was removed. An ECMO device was used to continuously perfuse a cardioprotective solution mainly composed of oxygenated warm blood, maintaining the isolated pig heart beating for 8 hours, monitoring (once/hour) ECMO perfusion parameters, blood gas indicators, perfusate electrolytes, inflammatory factors, myocardial enzymes, myoglobin, and troponin levels. Myocardial tissue was taken for hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining to observe myocardial cell damage and evaluate the quality of heart preservation. Results Among the 20 isolated beating pig hearts, 17 successfully resumed beating, 3 experienced ventricular fibrillation, resuscitated after intracardiac electrical defibrillation, and all 20 pig hearts successfully beat for 8 hours. There was no statistical difference in ECMO perfusion parameters, blood gas indicators, perfusate electrolytes, and inflammatory factors at each time point (P>0.05). There were statistical increases in myocardial enzymes, myoglobin, and troponin levels (P<0.05). HE staining results suggested that there was no severe myocardial damage. Conclusion ECMO technology can be used for pig heart preservation with good results, and this study provides experimental evidence for improving heart preservation research in clinical heart transplantation.

Objective: To investigate the association characteristics between psychological resilience and Internet gaming addiction among primary and secondary school students across different educational stages, so as to provide evidence for stage specific intervention strategies. Methods: A total of 30 719 students from primary schools, junior high schools, and senior high schools in Guangzhou, were selected using a cluster random sampling method from October to December 2025. The 10 item Connor- Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC-10) and the Internet Gaming Disorder Scale-Short Form (IGDS9-SF) were used to assess students phychological resilience and Internet gaming addication levels. One way analysis of variance was used for group comparisons. Network analysis was conducted to construct joint networks of psychological resilience and Internet gaming addiction across different educational stages, with a focus on identifying bridge nodes between the two domains. Results: Significant differences were observed in psychological resilience points (24.9±8.0, 24.3±8.2, 24.8±7.8) across priamry school, junior high school and senior high school ( F=18.91, P <0.01). There was a statistically significant difference in the scores of Internet game addiction points ( 17.7 ±7.6, 18.6±7.3, 19.2±7.0) among students across priamry school, junior high school and senior high school ( F=85.68, P <0.01). Psychological resilience was negatively correlated with Internet gaming addiction scores among primary school, junior high school, and senior high school students ( r =-0.27, -0.28, -0.19, all P <0.01). Network analysis revealed relatively close associations between psychological resilience and Internet gaming addiction across all educational stages. The bridge nodes were "withdrawal symptoms" for primary school, "toughness" for junior high school, and "loss of interest" for senior high school, with bridge expected influence values of 1.37, 1.31, and 1.18, respectively. The expected influence and bridge expected influence demonstrated good stability across the three educational stages, with correlation stability coefficients of 0.75. Conclusions The cross-community connections between psychological resilience and Internet gaming addiction differ across educational stages. Prevention and control of Internet gaming addiction should incorporate targeted interventions based on key bridge symptoms identified at each specific educational stage.

Objective To evaluate the preliminary effects of a Traditronal Chinese Medicine(TCM)incentive policy aimed at the number of discharge patients on the synergistic improvement of performance assessment indicators in the Traditional Chinese Hospital.Methods It selected detailed data from the first page of medical records at the grade A teritary hospital from October,2018 to October,2021.Using the Interrupted Time Series analysis method,two breakpoints were taken as the start time of COVID-19(December 2019)and the official implementation time of dis-charge performance program(September 2020).The utilization rate of TCM decoction pieces among discharged pa-tients,the utilization rate of TCM non-drug therapy among discharged patients,the proportion of discharged pa-tients mainly treated with TCM,and the proportion of inpatient medical service income before and after the break-point were analyzed.Results Despite the impact of COVID-19,after the policy was implemented,four key indicators showed a positive growth trend:the proportion of discharged patients treated primarily with TCM,the rate of TCM decoction use among discharged patients,the rate of TCM non-pharmaceutical therapy use among discharged pa-tients,and the proportion of medical service income,respectively.Conclusion The introduction of a TCM reward module in the discharge performance bonus plan of the sample hospital effectively stimulated the enthusiasm of medical staff in applying TCM.The utilization rate of TCM decoction slices,the utilization rate of TCM non-drug therapy,the proportion of discharged patients treated mainly by TCM and the proportion of medical service income all showed an upward trend,indicating that the incentive policy of TCM has a positive impact on the national examination index of TCM hospitals.

Natural killer cells(NK)are important innate immune cells that do not require prior antigen exposure and can directly recognize and attack virus-infected cells and tumor cells.The activation and effector functions of NK cells are regulated by a balance of signals delivered through their surface activating receptors and inhibitory re-ceptors,which bind to ligands on target cells to achieve cytotoxicity via"induced self"and"missing self"recogni-tion models.The killing mechanisms of NK cells primarily include release of cytotoxic granules such as perforin and granzymes to induce target cell lysis,death receptor-mediated apoptosis,secretion of various cytokines,chemokines and growth factors to coordinate with other immune cells in killing tumor cells,thereby generating secondary im-mune responses and antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity(ADCC).
