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 develop an ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry （UPLC-MS/MS） method to simultaneously determine 10 main components, including berberine, phellodendrine, specnuezhenide, mangiferin, loganin, paeoniflorin, geniposide, baicalin, and acteoside in Compound Dihuang oral solution. Methods An UPLC-MS/MS method was established with an ACQUITY UPLC BEH-C18 （2.1 mm×100 mm, 1.7 μm）column and mobile phase of 0.1% formic water（A）-methanol solution（B） in a gradient elution manner. The flow rate of mobile phase was 0.2 ml/min.The temperature of column was 30℃. The injection volume was 2 μl. The MS detection was in MRM mode. Results 10 components in Compound Dihuang oral solution had a good linear relationship within their concentration range,and the precision, repeatability, stability and recovery met the requirements. The contents of berberine, phellodendrine, specnuezhenide, mangiferin, loganin, paeoniflorin, geniposide, baicalin, and acteoside in 7 batches of samples were （89.7-95.6） μg/ml, （164.0-177.7） μg/ml, （540.0-610.0） μg/ml, （408.7-429.0） μg/ml, （726.0-825.0） μg/ml, （503.7-572.0） μg/ml, （1380.0-1540.0） μg/ml, （2596.7-2896.7) μg/ml, （4866.7-5520.0) μg/ml, （61.8-67.2) μg/ml, respectively. Conclusion The established method was easy to be repeated and operated. The contents of 10 components in Compound Dihuang oral solution could be determined quickly and accurately, which provided a reference for the quality control of hospital preparation.

Objective:To explore the application value of real-time virtual sonography (RVS) combined with intraductal biliary contrast-enhanced ultrasound (IB-CEUS) in percutaneous transhepatic cholangial drainage (PTCD).Methods:This retrospective cohort study included data from 71 patients who underwent PTCD at the Department of Hepatobiliary and Pancreatic Surgery in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University between May 2021 and August 2022. There were 36 male and 35 female patients,aged 35 to 94 years. Based on the guidance modality used,patients were divided into two groups: the RVS combined with IB-CEUS group ( n=36) and the digital subtraction angiography (DSA) group ( n=35). PTCD was performed under the guidance of RVS combined with IB-CEUS in the RVS+IB-CEUS group,and under conventional DSA fluoroscopic guidance in the DSA group. Two clinicians classified the biliary conditions as either simple or complex based on preoperative ultrasound and CT (or MRI) imaging. Statistical analyses were conducted using independent sample t-tests,rank-sum tests, χ2 tests,or Fisher′s exact tests,as appropriate. Results:Significant differences were observed between the RVS+IB-CEUS group and the DSA group in terms of the number of punctures (1.0±0.2 vs. 2.2±1.4, t=-5.148, P<0.01) and postoperative complication rate(2.8% (1/35) vs. 17.1% (6/36), P=0.049). There were 9 patients with complex biliary conditions in the DSA group and 12 in the RVS+IB-CEUS group. The number of punctures in both the simple and complex subgroups of the RVS+IB-CEUS group(1.0±0.2 and 1.0±0.0) remained lower than that in the corresponding DSA subgroups(2.2±1.6 and 2.4±0.4) ( t=-3.606, P<0.01; t=-3.959, P=0.002). Moreover,the complication rate in the simple biliary subgroup of the RVS+IB-CEUS group was significantly lower than that of the DSA group(0 (0/24) vs. 19.2% (5/26), P=0.031),whereas no significant difference was found in the complex biliary subgroup (1/12 vs. 1/9, P=0.686). Conclusion:Guided by RVS and IB-CEUS, PTCD can help reduce the number of punctures during surgery and postoperative complications, and patients with complex bile duct conditions can still benefit from PTCD.

Chitosan-based microspheres use chitosan as the main material to obtain particles with special structures through microsphere processing technology. They have the ability of slow and controlled release of drugs and the role of scaffolding, which have great application prospect in stomatology, but the application of chitosan-based microspheres is still in the research stage and has not yet been applied in clinical practice. This article reviews progress of domestic and foreign research on chitosan-based microspheres, in aspects of treatment of oral and jawbone tissue defects, periodontal diseases, dental pulp diseases and nerve tissue injury, in order to provide reference for follow-up research.

H 1-antihistamines are widely used in the treatment of various allergic diseases, but there are still many challenges in the safe and rational use of H 1-antihistamines in pediatrics, and there is a lack of guidance on the prescription review of H 1-antihistamines for children.In this paper, suggestions are put forward from the indications, dosage, route of administration, pathophysiological characteristics of children with individual difference and drug interactions, so as to provide reference for clinicians and pharmacists.

Anti-seizure medications (ASMs) are the main therapy for epilepsy.There are many kinds of ASMs with complex mechanism of action, so it is difficult for pharmacists to examine prescriptions.This paper put forward some suggestions on the indications, dosage forms/routes of administration, appropriateness of usage and dosage, combined medication and drug interaction, long-term prescription review, individual differences in pathophysiology of children, and drug selection when complicated with common epilepsy, for the reference of doctors and pharmacists.

Objective:To investigate the association between exposures of seven classic phthalate metabolites and fertility among preconception women before pregnancy.Methods:Based on the preconception cohort, a nested case-control study was carried out. Preconception couples who were recruited from Shanghai Jiading District Maternal and Child Health Hospital from 2016 to 2020 with intention to conception were selected. A total of 100 women whose time to pregnancy (TTP) >12 months were selected as the case group, and 151 women with the TTP≤12 months were randomly selected as control group. The single and joint effects on fertility of phthalate metabolites were analyzed by the comparison between the two groups via the multivariate binary logistic regression model, and the weighted quantile sum regression model.Results:There were significant differences in mono-(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (MEHP), mono-(2-carboxmethyl)-hexyl phthalate (MCMHP), the sum of the detected concentrations of MEHP, MCMHP, mono-(2-ethyl-5-oxohexyl) phthalate, mono-(2-ethyl-5-hydroxyhexyl) phthalate and mono-(2-ethyl-5-carboxypentyl) phthalate (∑DEHP), and the sum of the detected concentrations of the seven phthalate metabolites (∑PAE) exposure levels between the case group and control group ( P=0.005, P<0.001, P=0.001, P=0.007). As shown by the multivariate binary logistic regression model, women with MEHP, MCMHP, ∑DEHP, ∑PAE at the highest quartile level were found to have significantly increased risk of infertility compared with women at the lowest quartile level (a OR=2.40, 95% CI: 1.12-5.15, P=0.025; a OR=7.74, 95% CI: 3.14-19.08, P<0.001; a OR=4.35, 95% CI: 1.93-9.79, P<0.001; a OR=2.04, 95% CI: 0.96-4.34, P=0.044). The weighted quantile sum regression model demonstrated that the exposure to seven phthalate metabolite mixtures in preconception was associated with an increased risk of infertility ( P<0.05). Among the seven phthalate metabolites, MCMHP had the largest contribution weight (61.7%). Conclusion:Women of childbearing age should avoid the exposure to phthalates in the environment when preparing for conception, such as to reduce the consumption of highly processed foods and foods packaged with plastic/polyvinyl chloride materials to promote fertility.
