OBJECTIVE To explore and establish a full-cycle management model for drug traceability codes that aligns with national policy requirements and the practical needs of healthcare institutions， thereby enhancing the refinement of drug management and the level of medication safety. METHODS A tripartite strategy integrating “hardware deployment， system transformation， and process re-engineering” was adopted. This involved the introduction of intelligent identification devices （personal digital assistant， high-definition industrial reader）， the modification of the hospital information system interface， and the re-engineering of workflows （drug warehousing， dispensing and distribution， drug withdrawal， uploading to the insurance platform） to achieve comprehensive， informatized collection and association of drug traceability codes throughout all stages. RESULTS A full-cycle management model for drug traceability codes was successfully established， realizing the goals of making drugs “traceable to their source， trackable in their distribution， and accountable in their responsibility”. The patient waiting time for medication dispensing before and after the implementation was [3.08（1.67，5.58）] min and [3.28（1.77，5.98）] min， respectively. Among them， the patient waiting time under the pre-preparation mode was [3.60（2.13，6.35）] min and [3.50（2.03，6.30）] min， respectively； the patient waiting time under the real-time mode was [2.05（0.83，4.03）] min and [2.78（1.18，5.38）] min， respectively； the number of dispensing errors was 3， 0， respectively； the staffing of relevant positions had not been increased. CONCLUSIONS The drug traceability code management model constructed from a full-cycle perspective effectively meets national policy requirements. It provides data support for refined hospital management and offers solid technical and procedural safeguards for ensuring patient medication safety and strengthening medical insurance fund supervision， demonstrating practical value.

Based on yin-yang qi transformation theory and modern morphology， this paper elaborates on the structure and function of the collateral orifices and sweat pores. It is proposed that collateral vessels form a unified system of qi collaterals， blood collaterals， and water collaterals， with the core function of governing communication and transformation. The physiological mechanism that yin is in form while yang is in function forms a new understanding of the physiology of the collateral vessels. Based on this， the pathological mechanism of collateral disease is deconstructed， and a differentiation system for collateral disease based on yin-yang and qi transformation theory is established. The general treatment principle of regulating qi and resolving collaterals is defined， achieving a systematic integration of principles， methods， formulas， and medicinals regarding collateral disease theory. This approach provides a reference for the inheritance and innovation of collateral disease theory and the clinical precision differentiation and treatment.

Objective:To retrieve, screen, evaluate and integrate the relevant evidence of nursing management for patent foramen ovale detected by contrast transesophageal echocardiography (cTEE) to provide a basis for clinical practice.Methods:A systematic search was conducted in relevant Chinese and English databases, guideline websites, and professional association websites such as China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wanfang database, PubMed, and MedLink, etc. Relevant literatures on the detection of patent foramen ovale by cTEE were included, including guidelines, expert conconsensus, clinical decisions, evidence summaries, and systematic reviews. The search period was from the establishment of the database to July 31, 2024. Two evidence-based nursing researchers evaluated the quality of the literature and extracted relevant evidence in combination with clinical situations.Results:A total of 15 literatures were included. Among them, there were 3 guidelines, 6 expert consensuses, 3 clinical decisions, 2 quasi-experiments, and 1 systematic review. Thirty pieces of evidence were summarized from five aspects: assessment, education and publicity, preparation before examination, detection during examination, care after examination.Conclusions:The best evidence for the nursing management of patent foramen ovale detected by cTEE is of high quality and strong authority, which can provide evidence-based basis for standardizing clinical practice and accurately and efficiently detecting patent foramen ovale.

Objective:To investigate the characteristics of weight gain in the mid and late pregnancy of women with early pregnancy weight loss, and the relationship between weight gain and weight gain rate before the diagnosis of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and GDM.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted on 2 614 singleton pregnant women who underwent prenatal care and delivered at Beijing Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital, Capital Medical University, from January 2014 to December 2021, and whose weight decreased compared to pre-pregnancy weight by 16 weeks of gestation. The rate of weight gain in mid and late pregnancy, also weight gain and weight gain rate at each stage were analyzed. Multivariate logistic regression was used to analyze the impact of total weight gain and weight gain rate at each stage before the diagnosis of GDM on the risk of GDM.Results:The rates of weight gain in mid and late pregnancy for women with early pregnancy weight loss who were underweight, normal weight, overweight, and obese before pregnancy were (0.60±0.15), (0.59±0.18), (0.53±0.20), and (0.42±0.20) kg/week, respectively, all higher than the "Chinese Recommended Standards for Weight Gain During Pregnancy" [which are (0.37-0.56), (0.26-0.48), (0.22-0.37), and (0.15-0.30) kg/week, respectively]. The weight gain rates at each stage of mid and late pregnancy in women with early pregnancy weight loss showed a "bimodal" trend, with the first peak in weight gain rate occurring at 16-20 or 20-24 weeks of gestation [weight gain rates for underweight, normal weight, overweight, and obese women before pregnancy were 0.75 kg/week (0.44-1.00 kg/week), 0.74 kg/week (0.50-1.00 kg/week), 0.63 kg/week (0.39-0.86 kg/week), and 0.50 kg/week (0.25-0.74 kg/week), respectively] and the second peak occurring at 28-32 weeks [weight gain rates for underweight, normal weight, overweight, and obese women before pregnancy were 0.63 kg/week (0.50-1.00 kg/week), 0.63 kg/week (0.38- 0.88 kg/week), 0.60 kg/week (0.25-0.88 kg/week), and 0.50 kg/week (0.22-0.75 kg/week). As of 28 weeks and 36 weeks of gestation, 53.7% (1 404/2 614) and 77.4% (1 946/2 512) of pregnant women, respectively, reached the lower limit of the recommended weight gain for the corresponding gestational weeks. No association was found between insufficient weight gain ( aOR=0.828, 95% CI: 0.639-1.071, P=0.151) or excessive weight gain ( aOR=0.936, 95% CI: 0.598-1.465, P=0.773) before the diagnosis of GDM and the risk of GDM. However, obese women with a weight loss greater than 5% of their pre-pregnancy weight in early pregnancy and a rapid weight gain rate (> P 75) between 16-20 weeks of gestation had an increased risk of developing GDM ( aOR=32.870, 95% CI: 1.625-664.775, P=0.023). Conclusions:In clinical practice, dynamic monitoring of weight changes at various stages of pregnancy in women who lose weight in early pregnancy is recommended. Targeted weight management during mid-pregnancy for women who are obese before pregnancy and experience significant weight loss in early pregnancy may help prevent excessive gestational weight gain and decrease the risk of GDM.

Objective:To investigate the relationship between the early pregnancy triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index and gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) in twin pregnancies.Methods:This retrospective study involved twin-pregnant women who visited Beijing Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital, Capital Medical University from October 2015 to February 2021. Based on the results of the 75 g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) performed at 24-28 weeks of gestation, the women were divided into the GDM and the control groups. The groups were further stratified based on maternal age (<35 years or ≥35 years), pre-pregnancy body mass index (BMI) (<24.0 or ≥24.0 kg/m2), and conception method [assisted reproductive technology (ART) or natural conception]. The correlation between early pregnancy TyG index and GDM, as well as the predictive value of the early pregnancy TyG index for the risk of GDM in twin pregnancies, were analyzed. The TyG index in early pregnancy was then divided into tertiles, and the risks of GDM in low, medium, and high TyG index groups were analyzed. Statistical analyses were performed using independent sample t-test, non-parametric test, Chi-square test, and binary logistic regression analysis. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was used to evaluate the predictive value of the early pregnancy TyG index for GDM in twin pregnancies. Results:(1) A total of 1 684 twin-pregnant women were included, with an average age of 32.3 years (29.8-34.9 years) and a pre-pregnancy BMI of 22.0 kg/m2 (20.0-24.3 kg/m2). Among them, 319 (18.9%) were multiparas, 982 (58.3%) conceived through ART, and 357 (21.2%) were monochorionic twins. Of the 1 684 women, 367 (21.8%) were diagnosed with GDM (GDM group), whereas the remaining 1 317 were classified as the control group. (2) Compared to the control group, the GDM group had older maternal age [(32.2±3.7) years vs. (33.3±3.8) years, t=－4.92], higher pre-pregnancy weight, and BMI [57.5 kg (52.0-65.0 kg) vs. 60.0 kg (55.0-67.3 kg), U=279 901.50; 21.8 kg/m2 (19.8-24.0 kg/m2) vs. 22.9 kg/m2 (20.9-25.5 kg/m2), U=288 435.00]. The proportions of a family history of diabetes, history of GDM and polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) were all higher in the GDM group compared to the control group [9.6% (127/1 317) vs. 19.1% (70/367), χ 2=24.71; 0.8% (2/1 317) vs. 10.8% (8/367), χ 2=20.00; 9.1% (120/1 317) vs. 15.3% (56/367), χ 2=11.59] (all P<0.001). The GDM group had higher early pregnancy fasting blood glucose, triglyceride, and TyG indices compared to the control group [4.51 mmol/L (4.28-4.75 mmol/L) vs. 4.68 mmol/L (4.42-4.97 mmol/L), U=7.14; 1.23 mmol/L (0.93-1.57 mmol/L) vs. 1.43 mmol/L (1.09-1.89 mmol/L), U=4.81; 8.39±0.41 vs. 8.59±0.43, t=6.46]. The incidence of gestational anemia and weight gain were lower in the GDM group compared to the control group [39.2% (516/1 317) vs. 33.0% (121/367), χ 2=4.71; 17.0 kg (13.7-20.5 kg) vs. 15.0 kg (12.0-18.3 kg), U=187 966.00] (all P<0.05). The proportion of male newborns in the GDM group was higher than in the control group [52.5% (1 384/2 634) vs. 46.7% (343/734), χ 2=7.77, P=0.005]. (3) Early pregnancy TyG index was associated with GDM in twin pregnancies ( OR=3.164, 95% CI: 2.371-4.220, P<0.001). After adjusting for maternal age, pre-pregnancy BMI, history of GDM, history of macrosomia, and family history of diabetes, the early pregnancy TyG index remained associated with GDM ( OR=2.560, 95% CI: 1.884-3.478, P<0.001). Analysis of the early pregnancy TyG index divided into tertiles (corresponding TyG indices of 8.25 and 8.59) revealed that, compared to those with a low TyG index, those with a mid TyG index had a 0.555-fold increased risk of GDM ( OR=1.555, 95% CI: 1.119-2.159, P=0.008), and those with a high TyG index had a 1.564-fold increased risk of GDM ( OR=2.564, 95% CI: 1.836-3.530, P<0.001). Stratified analysis by age, BMI, and mode of conception showed that the early pregnancy TyG index was associated with GDM in twin pregnancies (all P<0.001). (4) The threshold value for the early pregnancy TyG index to predict GDM in twin pregnancies was 8.33, with an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.632, 95% CI: 0.600-0.665, sensitivity of 0.744, and specificity of 0.436. The AUC in twin pregnancies for those who conceived via ART was 0.635 (95% CI: 0.593-0.676, P<0.001), slightly higher than in those who conceived naturally (AUC=0.628, 95% CI: 0.576-0.681, P<0.001). After adjusting for maternal age, pre-pregnancy BMI, history of GDM, and family history of diabetes, the AUC for the early pregnancy TyG index to predict GDM in twin pregnancies was 0.675 (95% CI: 0.644-0.707). For those who conceived via ART, the AUC (95% CI) was 0.675 (0.634-0.717), slightly lower than for those who conceived naturally [0.682 (0.632-0.733)] (all P<0.001). Conclusion:A high TyG index in the first trimester is a risk factor for GDM in twin pregnancies, but its predictive value for GDM in twin pregnancies needs further research to be confirmed.

Objective To analyze the correlation between ferroptosis and post operative cognitive dysfunction(POCD)in elderly patients with fractures.Methods A total of 120 elderly patients with fracture were divided into the control group and the POCD group according to whether POCD occurred,with 60 cases in each group.Basic data of the two groups were collected.The levels of nerve injury indicators[brain myelin basic protein(MBP),glial fibrillary acidic protein(GFAP)],and fractures markers[glutathione peroxidase 4(GPX4),cyclooxygenase 2(COX2),long-chain acyl-CoA synthase 4(ACSL4)]were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay at 6 h after surgery.Logistic regression was used to analyze risk factors of POCD in elderly patients with fracture.The correlations between MBP,GFAP and GPX4,COX2 and ACSL4 were analyzed by Pearson correlation analysis.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curves were used to analyze predictive values of MBP,GFAP,GPX4,COX2 and ACSL4 levels to POCD.Results The age,proportion of general anesthesia,anesthesia time,intraoperative blood loss and MBP,GFAP,COX2,ACSL4 levels were higher in the POCD group than those in the control group(P＜0.05),while GPX4 was lower than that in the control group(P＜0.05).The levels of MBP and GFAP were negatively correlated with levels of GPX4 in elderly patients with fractures,and positively correlated with levels of COX2 and ACSL4(P＜0.05).Advanced age,general anesthesia,long duration of anesthesia,increased levels of MBP,GFAP,COX2 and ACSL4,and decreased level of GPX4 were independent risk factors for POCD in elderly fracture patients(P＜0.05).The critical values of GPX4,COX2 and ACSL4 for predicting POCD in elderly patients with fractures were GPX4≤23.05 μg/L,COX2≥20.35 μg/L and ACSL4≥237.85 μg/L,and the AUC were 0.869,0.736 and 0.841.The sensitivity was 76.67%,68.33%and 88.33%,and the specificity was 86.67%,78.33%and 75.00%,respectively.The diagnostic efficacy of GFAP,COX2 and ACSL4 was higher than that of MBP and GFAP.Conclusion The incidence of POCD in elderly patients with fracture is associated with ferroptosis,and levels of GPX4,COX2 and ACSL4 have certain predictive value for the incidence of POCD after surgery in elderly patients with fracture.

This study explored the effect of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis(Mtb)PE/PPE family protein PE_PGRS37 on the growth of Mycobacterium smegmatis(Ms)and macrophage autophagy during Mtb infection.The pe_pgrs37 gene was amplified from Mtb genome through PCR,and the recombinant vector pAIN-PE_PGRS37 was successfully constructed through homologous recombi-nation.pAIN-PE_PGRS37 and pAIN were integrated into Ms through electroshock to construct pAIN-PGRS37/Ms and pAIN/Ms re-combinant bacteria.Western blotting indicated that the PE_PGRS37 protein was correctly expressed in pAIN-PE_PGRS37/Ms.The re-combinant bacteria were inoculated in 7H9/7H10 medium,and their colony morphology and growth curves were observed.No signifi-cant difference in colony morphology was observed between pAIN-PE_PGRS37/Ms and pAIN/Ms.The growth rate significantly in-creased between 10 and 16 h,and a plateau was reached at 26 h.After infection of U937 cells with pAIN-PE_PGRS37/Ms and pAIN/Ms,macrophage autophagy flow was detected with western blotting and immunofluorescence.In the pAIN-PE_PGRS37/Ms-infected group,compared with the pAIN/Ms-infected group,macrophage LC3-II and p62 protein expression was significantly up-regulated(P<0.001)and inhibited autophagosome and lysosome fusion.The intracellular survival of the recombinant bacteria was detected through colony counting,and pAIN-PE_PGRS37/Ms showed significantly greater survival in macrophages at 12 h,24 h,and 48 h than pAIN/Ms(P<0.05).Our results suggested that PE_PGRS37 protein promotes Mycobacterium survival in macrophages by blocking macro-phage autophagy flow,thus inhibiting macrophage autophagy.

Objective:To investigate whether exosomes derived from atorvastatin (ATV)-pretreated human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (ATV-MSC-EXO) alleviate high glucose-induced injury in human retinal vascular endothelial cells (HREC) via the protein kinase B (AKT)/endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) signaling pathway.Methods:The optimal pretreatment concentration of ATV was determined using the cell counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) assay. Exosomes derived from mesenchymal stem cells (MSC-EXO) and ATV-pretreated MSC (ATV-MSC-EXO) were isolated and extracted, and their morphology and surface markers were characterized by transmission electron microscopy, nanoparticle tracking analysis, and Western blotting (WB). The uptake capacity of exosomes by human retinal vascular endothelial cells (HREC) was evaluated using a fluorescence labeling assay. In vitro cultured HREC were divided into the following groups: normal control group (NC group), high glucose group (HG group), high glucose+MSC-EXO group (MSC-EXO group), high glucose+ATV-MSC-EXO group (ATV-MSC-EXO group), high glucose+ATV-MSC-EXO+AKT inhibitor group (ATV-MSC-EXO-MK-2206-2HCL group), and high glucose+ATV-MSC-EXO+eNOS inhibitor group (ATV-MSC-EXO-L-NAME group). Cell proliferation and apoptosis were detected using CCK-8 and flow cytometry, respectively. The protein expression levels of B-cell lymphoma/leukemia-2 (Bcl-2), Bcl-2-associated protein (Bax), and Caspase-3 were measured by WB. In addition, the regulatory effects of ATV-MSC-EXO on the AKT/eNOS signaling pathway and its downstream functional molecules were analyzed by detecting the phosphorylation levels of AKT (P-AKT/AKT) and eNOS (P-eNOS/eNOS) via WB, the mRNA expression levels of AKT and eNOS by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction, and the concentrations of nitric oxide (NO) and endothelin-1 (ET-1) using commercial NO and ET-1 assay kits.Results:The optimal pretreatment concentration of ATV was 1 μmol/L. ATV-MSC-EXO exhibited similar morphology and particle size to MSC-EXO and were efficiently taken up by HREC. Under high glucose conditions, ATV-MSC-EXO significantly enhanced the viability of HREC ( F=83.24, P<0.000 1) and inhibited apoptosis ( F=77.39, P<0.000 1). WB analysis further confirmed that ATV-MSC-EXO upregulated the expression of the anti-apoptotic protein Bcl-2 ( F=53.17), while downregulating the pro-apoptotic proteins Bax ( F=36.49) and Caspase-3 ( F=60.75) ( P<0.001). In addition, ATV-MSC-EXO markedly increased the protein levels of P-AKT/AKT ( F=107.60) and P-eNOS/eNOS ( F=38.59), as well as the relative mRNA expression of AKT, eNOS ( F=203.60, 315.00; P<0.000 1). Furthermore, ATV-MSC-EXO promoted NO production ( F=407.40) and suppressed the relative expression of ET-1 ( F=49.76) ( P<0.000 1). Conclusion:ATV-MSC-EXO enhances the viability and inhibits apoptosis of HREC under high glucose conditions by activating the AKT/eNOS signaling pathway.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy of modified splenic arteriovenous shunt surgery at the distal pancreatic tail in combined pancreas-kidney transplantation.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on 24 recipients who underwent combined pancreas-kidney transplantation with the modified splenic arteriovenous shunt at the pancreatic tail from November 2023 to October 2024 (shunt group) and 231 recipients who received conventional splenic artery and vein ligation since 2016 (ligation group). The incidence of perioperative thrombosis and severe adverse events was compared between the two groups using the chi-square test or Fisher's exact test. Independent sample t-tests were performed to assess postoperative pancreatic and renal function recovery as well as blood perfusion in 15 recipients from the shunt group and 20 from the ligation group who underwent CT perfusion imaging (CTP).Results:The incidence of perioperative splenic arteriovenous thrombosis was lower in the shunt group (0) compared to the ligation group (4.76%, 11/231), though the difference was not statistically significant ( P=0.606). One month postoperatively, the shunt group demonstrated significantly lower serum amylase levels than the ligation group (99.61±19.62 vs. 148.20±70.67 U/L, P=0.018). However, at the time of CTP examination, serum lipase (67.87±32.35 vs. 45.11±17.94 U/L, P=0.014) and creatinine levels (131.79±26.41 vs. 112.1±24.98 μmol/L, P=0.034) were significantly higher in the shunt group. Urea nitrogen levels were also significantly higher in the shunt group both one month postoperatively (11.24±4.64 vs. 8.51±3.01 mmol/L, P=0.043) and at the CTP examination (10.41±1.78 vs. 6.87±1.91 mmol/L, P=0.001). Regarding pancreatic perfusion, blood volume in both the pancreatic head (15.99 ± 3.51 vs. 20.67 ± 5.47 ml/100 g, P = 0.024) and tail (17.19±4.24 vs. 27.40±19.80 ml/100 g, P=0.039) was significantly lower in the shunt group. After one minute of splenic artery perfusion, the shunt group exhibited significantly higher splenic artery blood flow (755.85±101.50 vs. 574.00 ± 142.06 ml·min -1· (100 g) -1, P<0.001) and blood volume (58.90 ±19.93 vs. 23.21±17.02 ml/100 g, P=0.007) compared to the ligation group. These differences persisted after two minutes of perfusion (blood flow: 793.83±68.57 vs. 503.78 ± 130.80 ml·min -1· (100 g) -1, P<0.001; blood volume: 64.22±15.74 vs. 34.32±20.39 ml/100 g, P=0.002). For the transplanted kidney, the shunt group had significantly lower blood flow (113.10±28.55 vs. 232.76±113.37 ml·min -1· (100 g) -1, P<0.001), blood volume (28.95±10.79 vs. 38.36±12.38 ml/100 g, P=0.047), and capillary surface permeability (PS) (26.49±16.57 vs. 43.02±20.37, P = 0.042) in the upper pole. Similar reductions in blood flow, blood volume, and PS were observed in the middle dorsal region ( P=0.018, 0.021, and 0.048, respectively) and lower pole ( P<0.001, P=0.048, and P=0.012, respectively). Conclusion:The modified splenic arteriovenous shunt at the pancreatic tail appears to be a safe and effective approach to reducing the risk of pancreatic graft thrombosis. This technique facilitates effective diversion of pancreatic parenchymal blood flow into the splenic vein, alleviating hyperperfusion of the transplanted pancreas. While renal blood perfusion was reduced postoperatively, it did not adversely affect renal function.

Objective:To explore the cut-off value of metastatic lymph node ratio (LNR) for stage N3 gastric cancer and construct a new TNM staging system to predict prognosis.Methods:Clinical data of 4 291 patients from Jan 2004 to Dec 2020 in the SEER database and 567 patients from Jan 2016 to Dec 2020 in the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University with stage N3 gastric cancer were collected. A new TNrM staging system and a nomogram model were constructed based on the optimal LNR cut-off value and compared with the 8th TNM staging model in terms of prognostic discrimination, prognostic prediction accuracy, and clinical usefulness.Results:The optimal cut-off value of LNR was 0.5. A TNrM staging system was constructed by combining the Nr stage with the T stage. Univariate and multivariate COX regression analyses showed that the TNrM staging system was a significant prognostic factor (all P<0.05). Based on the 8th TNM and TNrM staging system, two nomograms were constructed in the training set and externally validated in the validation set. Compared with the TNM staging model, the TNrM staging model had a larger C-index and area of time-dependent ROC curve(AUC) (training set: 3-year AUC: 66.5 vs. 74.4, 5-year AUC: 68.9 vs. 75.3; validation set: 3-year AUC: 62.3 vs. 73.1, 5-year AUC: 62.6 vs. 75.8), its overall survival prediction curves were closer to the ideal curve in the calibration curve, and its clinical net benefit was greater in the decision curves. Conclusions:Stage N3 gastric cancer patients with a metastatic lymph node ratio >0.5 have a poor prognosis. The TNrM staging nomogram model constructed based on the lymph node ratio has better prognostic discrimination ability and prediction accuracy and more clinical net benefits compared to the 8th edition of TNM staging nomogram model.
