The new era imposes heightened demands on medical professionals,who must not only possess a solid theoretical foundation but also exhibit strong practical skills and innovative capabilities.The quality of medical func-tional laboratory construction is crucial for cultivating high-caliber medical talents.In light of the current developmental status and trends regarding functional experiment teaching within Chinese higher education institutions,particularly the disparities in development across various regions and institutions,the Functional Experiment Teaching Committee of the Chinese Pathophysiology Society has developed an expert consensus on laboratory construction standards.This consensus was established through comprehensive investigations,research,and extensive discussions to provide a reference for di-verse institutions to continuously enhance their levels of laboratory construction.

Objective:To construct a mouse model of house dust mite(HDM)-induced allergic asthma with cognitive impairment.Methods:C57 BL/6 mice aged 6-8 weeks were used as the study subjects.HDMs were used intranasally to induce allergic asthma in mice(HDM group).Simultaneously,a normal saline control group(NS group)and a blank control group(CN group)were established.At week 2 and month 1 of model construction,cognitive ability was tested using Barnes maze;pulmonary function was determined by nebulization with acetyl-β-methylcholine chloride solution,and pathological changes in lung and brain tissues were evaluated using hematoxylin-eosin staining,immunohistochemistry,and Western blotting.Results:At week 2,there were no significant differences in the enhanced pause(Penh),inflammatory cell infiltration around the bronchi,time and frequency of mice finding escape boxes,and changes in mature neuronal marker neuronal nuclei antigen(NeuN)and synaptophysin in the brain in the HDM group compared with the CN and NS groups;no neuroinflammation occurred in the brain.At month 1,compared with the CN and NS groups,the HDM group showed a significant increase in Penh and a large amount of inflammatory cell infiltration around the bronchi;the time of mice finding escape boxes significantly increased(F=19.600,P<0.001),and the frequency significantly decreased(F=10.150,P=0.002);the NeuN-positive area in the hippocampus of mice significantly decreased(F=6.449,P=0.012),and synaptophysin was significantly reduced(F=16.200,P=0.004);activation of microglial cells and neuroinflammation occurred.Conclusion:This study successfully constructed a mouse model of HDM-induced allergic asthma with cognitive impairment,providing a good animal model for exploring the mechanism of cognitive impairment caused by allergic asthma and drug inter-vention research.

Objective:To investigate the role of evidence-based clinical guidelines combined with "rain classroom" smart teaching in standardized residency training in endocrinology department.Methods:The 100 trainees who underwent standardized residency training in the Department of Endocrinology at Xiamen Hospital from September 2022 to September 2023 were selected as the research subjects. They were divided into groups based on the parity of their admission batches, with even-numbered batches assigned to the control group and odd-numbered batches to the experimental group, with 50 trainees in each group. The control group received traditional teaching, while the experimental group was taught using evidence-based clinical guidelines combined with "rain classroom" smart teaching. Statistical comparisons were made between the two groups in terms of exit examination scores, teaching effectiveness, teaching satisfaction, and evaluation of trainees by teachers. SPSS 22.0 was used for t test and Chi-square test. Results:The experimental group demonstrated significantly higher scores in theoretical knowledge [(25.62±3.12) vs. (22.71±3.27)], case analysis [(25.18±3.24) vs. (22.24±3.35)], clinical operation [(25.01±3.19) vs. (22.12±3.29)], and daily performance [(8.12±1.01) vs. (7.21±1.13)] compared to the control group in exit examination ( P<0.001). Additionally, the experimental group showed superior performance in self-learning [(8.57±1.12) vs. (7.64±1.24)], clinical thinking [(8.61±1.16) vs. (7.78±1.28)], evidence-based thinking [(8.52±1.13) vs. (7.69±1.26)], clinical skills [(8.49±1.17) vs. (7.61±1.23)], communication skills [(8.53±1.18) vs. (7.67±1.29)], and literature review [(8.59±1.15) vs. (7.71±1.27)], with statistically significant differences ( P<0.05). Teaching satisfaction in the experimental group (96.00%) was significantly higher than that in the control group (82.00%) ( P=0.025). The pass rates rated by teachers were higher in the experimental group in medical history collection (94.00% vs. 80.00%), physical examination (96.00% vs. 82.00%), clinical thinking (92.00% vs. 76.00%), communication skills (94.00% vs. 80.00%), literature review (96.00% vs. 84.00%), specialized skills (94.00% vs. 78.00%), and diagnosis and treatment plan formulation (92.00% vs. 74.00%), with statistically significant differences ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The implementation of evidence-based clinical guidelines combined with "rain classroom" smart teaching in the standardized residency training in endocrinology department can significantly improve the exit examination scores and teaching satisfaction of trainees, teaching effectiveness, and evaluation of trainees by teachers. This teaching method has a positive role in improving the clinical comprehensive ability of trainees such as evidence-based medical thinking and standardized clinical diagnosis and treatment.

Objective To observe the feasibility of Fourier ring correlation(FRC)for measuring the overall resolution of ultrasonic microvascular images.Methods Liver contrast-enhanced ultrasound(CEUS)images of 1 patient with suspected hepatic hemangioma(dataset 1)were processed with singular value decomposition(SVD)filter(dataset 2)and Frangi filter(dataset 3),respectively.Three ROI were selected on CEUS image in each dataset,and the signal-intensity curves were drawn,and local resolution of CEUS image in each dataset was measured using full width at half maxima(FWHM)method.Then the above datasets were divided into odd frame subset and even frame subset,respectively,which were converted into frequency domain using fast Fourier transform.FRC curves were generated to calculate the overall resolution of each kind images.Results The signal-to-noise ratio(SNR)of CEUS images in dataset 1,2,3 was(19.94±2.33),(30.36±0.78)and(69.52±16.38)dB,respectively,the local resolution was(4.07±9.82),(1.53±0.04)and(1.27±0.06)mm,both successively increased(all P＜0.05).The overall resolution of CEUS images in dataset 1,2,3 was 2.07,0.91 and 0.51 mm,respectively.Conclusion FRC was feasible for measuring the overall resolution of ultrasonic microvascular images.

Objective To observe the value of tissue motion mitral annular displacement(TMAD)technique to assess left ventricular function in patients with cardiac amyloidosis.Methods A total of 34 adult patients with cardiac amyloidosis diagnosed by pathology were retrospectively included as the observation group,and 32 healthy adults were collected as the control group for the same period.Basic data of the subjects were collected,and data of routine ultrasonic parameters of left ventricular function and TMAD parameters were obtained,and then compared between groups.The correlation of TMAD parameters with left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF)or mitral annular plane systolic excursion(MAPSE)were assessed.Results Compared with the control group,the observation group had higher levels of body surface area(BSA),systolic blood pressure,N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide(NT-proBNP),creatinine and urea(all P＜0.05).The observation group had increased values of ascending aorta(AO),left atrium(LA),interventricular septum(IVS),left ventricular posterior wall thickness in diastole(LVPWD),pulmonary artery(PA),and early diastolic peark velocity of mitral inflow(peak E),while smaller values of left ventricular end-diastolic dimension(LVEDD),LVEF,fractional shortening(FS),early diastolic tissue Doppler velocity E'septal(IVS E')and lateral(LW E')and MAPSE(all P＜0.05),and the LVEF in observation group was(58.18±7.09)％.For TMAD patameters,the observation group had smaller values of the following parameters on apical four chamber(A4C)view as medial displacement of mitral valve annulus(A4C MV1),displacement of lateral mitral valve annulus(A4C MV2),displacement of the midpoint of the mitral valve annulus(A4C Midpt)and the corresponding percentage(A4C Midpt％),as well as smaller values of the following paramets on apical two chamber(A2C)view as A2C MV1,A2C MV2,A2C Midpt and A2C Midpt％(all P＜0.05).In the observation group,A4C Midpt％showed a moderate positive correlation with LVEF(r=0.488,P＜0.05),and A2C Midpt showed a high positive correlation with M APSE(r=0.712,P＜0.05),and A4C MV2,A4C Midpt,A4C Midpt％,A2C MV1,A2C MV2,A2C Midpt％all showed a moderate positive correlation with MAPSE(r=0.420 to 0.691,all P＜0.05).Conclusion Compared with LVEF,the TMAD parameters might reflect the changes in left ventricular systolic function more sensitively in patients with cardiac amyloidosis.

Objective To observe the effect of extracting different speed contrast-enhanced ultrasound(CEUS)signals using singular value decomposition filtering and implementing fused imaging for improving visualization of microvascular structures.Methods Singular value decomposition and filtering were performed on 200 frames of mouse subcutaneous tumor and 250 frames of human liver CEUS image datasets.The singular value inflection point was used as the threshold for separating low-speed and high-speed contrast signals by exponential projection of singular values on the singular value sequence.The low-speed and high-speed signals in dataset were extracted,and dual-modal fusion imaging was performed on the processed images.The image resolution differences of ultrasound microvascular imaging regions with different flow velocities were evaluated.Results The high-speed blood flow images processed by the high singular value sequence range retained the fast-moving contrast signals which mainly showed the thicker blood vessel structures,while the low-speed blood flow images processed by the low singular value sequence range retained the low-speed moving contrast signals which reflected the microvascular structures on high singular value images.The fusion imaging displayed microvascular network more completely.Conclusion Appropriate selection of singular value range was crucial to optimization of CEUS images using singular value decomposition filtering.Fusion imaging was beneficial to improving visualization of microvascular structures.

Unlike chemosynthetic drugs designed for specific molecular and disease targets,active small-molecule natural products typically have a wide range of bioactivities and multiple targets,necessitating extensive screening and development.To address this issue,we propose a strategy for the direct in situ micro-dynamic examination of potential drug candidates to rapidly identify their effects and mechanisms of action.As a proof-of-concept,we investigated the behavior of mussel oligosaccharide(MOS-1)by tracking the subcellular dynamics of fluorescently labeled MOS-1 in cultured cells.We recorded the entire dynamic process of the localization of fluorescein isothiocyanate(FITC)-MOS-1 to the lysosomes and visualized the distribution of the drug within the cell.Remarkably,lysosomes containing FITC-MOS-1 actively recruited lipid droplets,leading to fusion events and increased cellular lipid consumption.These drug behaviors confirmed MOS-1 is a candidate for the treatment of lipid-related diseases.Furthermore,in a high-fat HepG2 cell model and in high-fat diet-fed apolipoprotein E(ApoE)-/-mice,MOS-1 significantly promoted triglyceride degradation,reduced lipid droplet accumulation,lowered serum triglyceride levels,and mitigated liver damage and steatosis.Overall,our work supports the prioritization of in situ visual monitoring of drug location and distribution in subcellular compartments during the drug development phase,as this methodology contributes to the rapid identification of drug indications.Collectively,this methodology is significant for the screening and development of selective small-molecule drugs,and is expected to expedite the identification of candidate molecules with me-dicinal effects.

Objective To observe the value of ultrasound vector flow imaging(VFI)combined with singular value decomposition(SVD)filtering for depicting deep microvasculature flow velocity of liver.Methods Grayscale ultrasound,CDFI and contrast-enhanced ultrasound(CEUS)were prospectively performed in a patient with suspected liver hemangioma.Images of CEUS were dealt with SVD filtering.Cross-correlation algorithm was used to obtain images of VFI based on grayscale ultrasound,original CEUS and SVD filtered CEUS,respectively,and the ability of the above images for depicting liver microvascular flow direction and velocity were compared.Results The signal-to-noise ratio(SNR)of liver grayscale ultrasound,original CEUS and SVD filtered CEUS images was 7.56,17.65 and 22.43 dB,respectively,while their contrast-to-issue ratio(CTR)was 1.12,7.56 and 16.34 dB,respectively.Compared with VFI based on grayscale ultrasound and original CEUS,VFI based on SVD filtered CEUS could display faster velocity and more uniform direction of blood flow.Before and after SVD filtering,liver microvascular flow velocity measured with VFI was 1.91(0.81,4.11)and 6.83(4.25,9.41)mm/s,respectively,which were significantly different(Z=-10.671,P＜0.001).Conclusion Combined with SVD filtering could significantly improve the efficiency of VFI for depicting liver deep microvasculature flow velocity.
