Objective: To evaluate the effect of community comprehensive management model intervention among patients with dyslipidemia, so as to provide the reference for optimizing community management strategies and improving the target achievement rate for blood lipids among this population. Methods: From May to June 2023, a multi-stage stratified random sampling method was employed to select patients with dyslipidemia from primary healthcare institutions in Jiaxing City, Zhejiang Province. Eligible participants were randomly assigned to either a control group or an intervention group. The control group received routine management, while the intervention group was subjected to a community comprehensive management model in addition to the routine care. Both groups were followed up for 24 months. Data on demographic characteristics, lifestyle behaviors, physical examination indices, and blood biochemical indicators were collected at baseline and after the intervention through questionnaires, physical examinations, and laboratory tests. Changes in obesity rate, central obesity rate, target achievement rates for blood lipids, blood pressure, and blood glucose, as well as lifestyle modifications, were analyzed. Differences between the two groups before and after the intervention were assessed using generalized estimating equations (GEE). Results: The control group consisted of 560 patients, including 303 females (54.11%) and 430 individuals aged ≥65 years (76.79%). The intervention group also included 560 patients, with 300 females (53.57%) and 431 individuals aged ≥65 years (76.96%). Before the intervention, no statistically significant differences were observed between the two groups in terms of gender, age, educational level, history of chronic diseases, and atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease risk stratification (all P>0.05). After 24 months of intervention, interaction effects between group and time were observed for obesity rate, central obesity rate, target achievement rate for blood lipids, target achievement rate for blood glucose, composite target achievement rate, physical activity rate, and medication adherence (all P<0.05). Specifically, the intervention group demonstrated lower rates of obesity and central obesity, and higher target achievement rate of blood lipids, target achievement rate of blood glucose, composite target achievement rate, physical activity rate, and medication adherence compared to the control group. Conclusion The community comprehensive management model contributed to improvements in multiple metabolic parameters (including body weight, waist circumference, blood lipids, and blood glucose) among patients with dyslipidemia, and was associated with increased physical activity rate and medication adherence.

Objective: To explore the distribution characteristics and influencing factors of adverse reactions in whole blood donation in Jinan, Shandong, so as to provide evidence for the prevention and control of such adverse reactions in this region. Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on whole blood donors and adverse reaction cases in Jinan during 2023. To explore influencing factors of adverse reactions, univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to examine the relationships between adverse reactions and factors such as gender, age, donation organization mode, donation frequency, donation volume, time slot, and health examination results. Results: A total of 122 961 whole blood donations were recorded in Jinan in 2023. Donation-related adverse reactions occurred in 2 054 cases, with an incidence rate of 1.67%. Univariate analysis revealed significant differences in the incidence of adverse reactions across donor characteristics: the rate was higher in females (2.35%, 921/39 192) than in males (1.35%, 1 133/83 769), donors aged 18-25 years had the highest incidence (3.48%, 1 799/51 733), the incidence in group donations (3.13%, 1,737/55 534) was significantly higher than in individual donations (0.47%, 317/67 427), and insufficient blood collection was closely associated with adverse reactions (all P<0.001). Multivariate logistic regression analysis identified group donation, female gender, and a pulse rate of 81-99 beats per minute as risk factors for adverse reactions (all P<0.001), while systolic blood pressure of 116-139 mmHg and diastolic blood pressure of 76-89 mmHg were protective factors (all P<0.05). Compared to younger and lower-weight donor groups, older and higher-weight donors had a significantly lower risk of adverse reactions (all P<0.05). Donors giving 400 mL had a higher risk than those giving 200 mL (P<0.001). In addition, compared with the donation time slot of 7:00-8:59, the risk of adverse reactions was significantly higher during 9:00-16:59, with the time slot of 13:00-14:59 showing the most prominent risk (all P<0.05). However, no statistically significant difference was observed between the time slot of 17:00-20:59 and that of 7:00-8:59 (P>0.05). The primary clinical manifestation of adverse reactions was donation-related vasovagal reaction, with mental tension being the leading precipitating factor, accounting for 69.08% (1 419/2 054) of cases. Conclusion: The occurrence of adverse reactions in whole blood donation in the Jinan is influenced by multiple factors, including donor demographic characteristics, donation organization mode, physiological indicators, and time of donation. It is recommended to enhance the identification and intervention for high-risk groups, and optimize donation processes and service models to reduce the incidence of adverse reactions, thereby ensuring donor safety and blood quality.

Objective: To explore the application effectiveness of healthcare failure mode and effect analysis (HFMEA) in optimizing intelligent blood logistics transport pathways for safety assurance. Methods: Data from 1 851 cases of intelligent blood logistics transport were collected between September 2023 and March 2025. Based on the implementation phases of HFMEA measures, the cases were divided into a control group (n=120), observation group 1 (n=219), and observation group 2 (n=1 512). Through systematic analysis of the transport processes, hazard scoring and decision tree analysis were conducted for each process, and phased optimization measures were implemented for high-risk failure modes. Results: The transport duration of intelligent blood logistics was 35.5 (20.8, 71.1) min in the control group, 25.1 (10.9, 40.7) min in observation group 1, and 9.9 (4.2, 44.5) min in observation group 2. Observation group 2 exhibited significantly shorter transport time compared to both observation group 1 and the control group, with statistically significant differences between groups (P<0.000 1). Conclusion: The implementation of HFMEA-driven measures significantly reduced intelligent blood logistics transport duration, thereby fostering the evolution of smart hospital ecosystems while enhancing healthcare service quality and operational efficiency.

To evaluate long-term survival and clinical outcomes of patients with knee osteo-arthritis undergoing total knee arthroplasty (TKA) through long-term follow-up.

BACKGROUND:The guinea pig is considered to be the most useful spontaneous model for evaluating primary osteoarthritis in humans because of its similar knee joint structure and close histopathologic features to those of humans. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the pathological process of spontaneous knee osteoarthritis in guinea pigs by analyzing the histopathology of the total knee joint of guinea pigs aged 1 to 18 months. METHODS:Eight healthy female Hartley guinea pigs in each age group of 1,6,10,14,16,and 18 months old were selected.The quadriceps femoris was taken for hematoxylin-eosin staining,and the total knee joint was stained with hematoxylin-eosin and toluidine blue.The histopathology of the cartilage,subchondral bone,synovium,meniscus,and muscles were observed under light microscope.Mankin's score and synovitis score were compared,and the correlation analysis was conducted. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:As the guinea pig age increased,the Mankin's score increased(P<0.05),and the pathological score of synovitis also gradually increased(P<0.05),and there was a significant positive correlation between the two(r=0.641,P<0.001).The incidence rate of subchondral bone marrow lesion in 18-month-old guinea pigs was 50%,and the incidence of meniscus injury was 37.5%.In addition,osteophyte and narrowing of the joint space were observed,and only a few guinea pigs had inflammation in the quadriceps femoris.To conclude,guinea pigs develop significant cartilage defects,synovial inflammation,subchondral bone lesions,meniscus injury,osteophyte formation,and joint space narrowing as they age,all of which are similar to the pathological processes of primary knee osteoarthritis in humans,making it an ideal model of spontaneous knee osteoarthritis.

The auxin/indole-3-acetic acid (Aux/IAA) gene family is an important regulator for plant growth hormone signaling, involved in plant growth, development, as well as response to environmental stresses. In the present study, we identified SmIAA7 which is potentially associated with Salvia miltiorrhiza leaf development through comparatively analyzed the transcriptome data from different pinnate leaves. SmIAA7 was successfully isolated from S. miltiorrhiza using the specific primers. Then subsequent bioinformatic analysis, prokaryotic expression and purification, subcellular localization, and induction expression analysis under auxin and abiotic stress were performed. The full-length of SmIAA7 contained an ORF of 684 bp encoding a protein of 227 amino acid with a molecular weight of 25.3 kD. Conserved domain analysis showed that SmIAA7 contains the conserved Aux_IAA domain (pfam02309). Sequence analysis and phylogenetic tree analysis results indicated SmIAA7 was phylogenetically close to IAA7 and IAA14 from other plants, suggesting SmIAA7 involved in plant growth and development as well as response to environmental stresses. The prokaryotic expression vector pET28a-SmIAA7 was constructed and SmIAA7 recombinant protein was successfully expressed in E. coli Rosetta (DE3) strain. Subcellular localization experiment demonstrated that SmIAA7 localized in the nucleus of plant cells. Real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR results showed that the expression level of SmIAA7 was upregulated in response to auxin. Drought, low temperature, and salt stress significantly increased the transcript level of SmIAA7 gene. This study lays a foundation for further elucidating the role of SmIAA7 in leaf development, signal transduction, and stress defense in S. miltiorrhiza.

OBJECTIVE To provide medication reference for duloxetine use in clinical settings， particularly for patients with depression in primary medical institutions in Xinjiang that lack therapeutic drug monitoring conditions. METHODS The medical records of 281 depression inpatients taking duloxetine in the First Affiliated Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University from January 2022 to December 2023 were retrospectively collected. They were divided into training set （196 cases） and test set （85 cases） in the ratio of 7∶3. Feature selection was performed by encapsulating random forests （RF） with recursive feature elimination. Four machine learning algorithms， namely support vector machine， RF， extreme gradient boosting （XGBoost） and artificial neural network， were used to construct duloxetine blood concentration prediction model. The prediction performance of the models was evaluated and compared by coefficient of determination （R2）， mean absolute error （MAE） and root mean squared error （RMSE）. The feature of the selected optimal model was explained by Shapley additive explanation method， and the importance ranking of the features and the influence on the prediction results of duloxetine blood concentration were determined. RESULTS A total of 29 characteristic variables were selected， including age， ethnicity， body mass index（BMI）， etc. XGBoost showed the highest R2 （0.808）， and the lowest MAE （7.644） and RMSE （10.808）. The ranking of feature importance for predicting the blood concentration of duloxetine was as follows： BMI＞age＞other 20 feature sets （including liver and kidney function and biochemical indicators）＞daily dosage＞comorbidities＞combination therapy＞ethnicity＞white blood cell count＞hemoglobin＞height. CONCLUSIONS XGBoost model possesses the best prediction performance of duloxetine blood concentration； BMI and age have a greater impact on the prediction of duloxetine blood concentration.

[Objective] To compare the characteristics of platelet-rich plasma derived exosomes (PRP-Exos) under different activation conditions and their differential effects on the proliferation capacit of human microvascular endothelial cells (HMEC-1) and human skin fibroblasts (BJ). [Methods] Ten healthy volunteers were recruited, and 10 mL of venous blood anticoagulated with EDTA-K2 was collected. PRP-Exos were prepared and extracted by the secondary centrifugation method. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM), nanoparticle tracking analysis (NTA), and Western blotting (WB) detection techniques were used to compare the morphological characteristics, particle size distribution, concentration, and the expression of surface marker proteins of PRP-Exos. Through in vitro cell culture, the differences in morphological changes and proliferation abilities of HMEC-1 and BJ cells induced by PRP-Exos in different activator groups were compared. [Results] 1) TEM observation showed that the morphologies of PRP-Exos in different activator groups were different. 2) NTA analysis showed that compared with the particle size of (109.60±2.71) nm in the normal saline group, the particle sizes of the thrombin group [(104.93±1.55) nm] and the mixed agent group [(103.83±1.58) nm] were relatively smaller, while the particle size of the calcium gluconate group [(113.57±4.70) nm] was larger and its particle size distribution range was wider. There were statistically significant differences among different groups (F=7.019, P<0.05). The concentration of exosomes obtained in the group with the mixture of calcium gluconate and thrombin was the highest [(4.87±0.63)×10⁶ particles/mL, P<0.001]. Both the thrombin group [(2.75±0.13)×10⁶ particles/mL, P < 0.01] and the calcium gluconate group [(3.82±0.06)×10⁶ particles/mL, P<0.001] obtained higher concentrations of exosomes compared with the normal saline group. The concentration in the calcium gluconate group was slightly higher than that in the thrombin group, and there was a significant difference between the two groups (P<0.05). 3) WB analysis showed that CD41, CD81, and TSG101 were expressed on the surface of PRP-Exos, and the protein signal intensities of CD41 and TSG101 in the group with the mixture of thrombin and calcium gluconate were the strongest (P<0.001). 4) The results of in vitro cell culture showed that PRP-Exos in the group with the mixture of thrombin and calcium gluconate could significantly promote the proliferation of HMEC-1 and BJ cells (P<0.05). [Conclusion] The PRP treated with the thrombin and calcium gluconate mixture group yielded the highest concentration of exosomes; under in vitro culture conditions, PRP-Exos from this group significantly promoted the proliferation of HMEC-1 and BJ cells.

This narrative review examines the challenges, strategies, and future directions in the development of young teachers within the pathophysiology departments of Chinese medical colleges. A thorough review of 49 studies published between 2013 and 2024 was carried out using PubMed, Web of Science, and various Chinese databases. The primary challenges identified include teaching innovation (cited in 84.2% of the studies), research pressure (91.2%), disciplinary characteristics (87.7%), and career development (80.7%). Medical schools have responded by enhancing training systems (94.7%), innovating teaching methods (93.0%), and bolstering research support (96.5%). Looking ahead, trends are shifting toward the application of new technologies, interdisciplinary integration, and international collaboration. The focus on cultivating young teachers is increasingly geared towards personalization and diversification, which are essential for advancing education in pathophysiology. High-quality young teachers are pivotal in raising teaching standards, fostering research innovation, and facilitating interdisciplinary exchanges. Based on these insights, we recommend several practical measures to enhance the quality of pathophysiology education in China. These include establishing comprehensive training programs that integrate teaching innovation and research skills; developing structured mentorship systems with clear pathways for career advancement; creating platforms that support technology-enhanced teaching and international collaboration; and implementing systematic evaluation mechanisms to assess teaching effectiveness. These targeted interventions will require a coordinated effort from department heads, educational institutions, and policymakers to ensure a sustained improvement in the quality of pathophysiology education.
