Objective To explore the effects of different sealing methods in the treatment of liver failure patients using a dual plasma molecular adsorption system combined with plasma exchange.Methods A total of 120 patients with liver failure admitted between January 2022 and October 2024 were enrolled in the study and randomly divided into an observation group and a control group,each consisting of 60 patients.Both groups received treatment with a dual plasma molecular adsorption system combined with plasma exchange.The control group was administered heparin sodium for catheter sealing,whereas the observation group received protamine prior to hepa-rin sodium catheter sealing.The study compared the two groups in terms of liver function indicators—including aspartate aminotransferase(AST),alanine aminotransferase(ALT),and bilirubin—coagulation function indicators such as fibrinogen and international normalized ratio(INR),hemoglobin(HGB)levels,catheter blockage rates,and the incidence of adverse reactions.Results No statistically significant differences were observed in liver function,coagulation function,or routine blood parameters between the two patient groups following treatment(P>0.05).However,the incidence of blockage in the observation group(3.33%)was significantly lower than that in the control group(20.00%),with the difference being statistically significant(P<0.05).Additionally,no significant differences were found in the occurrence of adverse reactions between the two groups(P>0.05).Conclusions The treatment of liver failure involves the use of a dual plasma molecular adsorption system combined with plasma exchange.Administering protamine prior to heparin sodium sealing has minimal impact on the patient's liver function,blood parameters,coagulation profile,and incidence of adverse reactions,yet it effectively reduces the risk of circuit clotting.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy of an etoposide (Vp16) -intensified conditioning regimen in allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) for the treatment of relapsed/refractory acute myeloid leukemia (AML).Method:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 27 recipients with relapsed/refractory AML who underwent allo-HSCT using a Vp16-intensified conditioning regimen at Aerospace Center Hospital from January 2019 to January 2022. Transplantation-related complications and treatment outcomes were observed. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis was used to assess the overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) rates.Result:Among the 27 recipients, there were 14 males and 13 females, with a median age of 41 years (range: 12~55 years). Except for one recipient who experienced primary graft failure, the remaining 26 recipients achieved hematopoietic reconstitution. The median neutrophil and platelet engraftment times were 13 days (range: 9~20 days) and 13.5 days (range: 11~33 days), respectively. Regimen-related toxicity (RRT) was mainly gastrointestinal toxicity and oral mucositis, and no deaths were attributed to RRT. A total of 12 recipients (44.44%) developed acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD), of whom 3 cases (11.11%) had grade III~IV aGVHD. Chronic GVHD (cGVHD) occurred in 13 recipients (48.15%), including 8 cases (29.63%) of extensive cGVHD. The median follow-up time after transplantation was 17 months (range: 1~48 months). Fifteen recipients (55.56%) survived without disease, while 12 recipients (44.44%) died— 9 due to relapse and 3 due to transplant-related complications. The 1-year overall survival and DFS rates were 74.07% and 59.26%, respectively; the 2-year overall survival and DFS rates were 59.26% and 55.56%, respectively. The 2-year relapse rate and transplant-related mortality (TRM) were 33.33% and 11.11%, respectively.Conclusion:The Vp16-intensified conditioning regimen in allo-HSCT appears to be a viable treatment option for patients with relapsed/refractory AML, offering favorable efficacy and manageable safety.

Objective:To analyze the electrocardiogram (ECG) data of congenital long QT syndrome (LQTS) patients, and to identify the ECG parameters for prediction of life-threatening arrhythmic events (LAEs).Methods:This cohort study enrolled patients diagnosed with congenital LQTS at the Department of Cardiology, Beijing Tsinghua Changgung Hospital from September 2014 to May 2023. Baseline clinical and ECG data were collected. Patients were followed with LAEs as the primary endpoint. Based on the occurrence of LAEs, patients were divided into two groups: the event group and the event-free group. Cox regression analysis was used to identify independent predictors of LAEs in LQTS patients.Results:A total of 293 patients diagnosed with congenital LQTS were included, aged 32.5 (19.0, 41.8) years, including 201 females (68.6%). Sixty-six patients experienced LAEs and 227 patients did not. Compared to the event-free group, the event group had a younger onset age (13.0 (5.5, 20.5) years vs. 26.0 (13.0, 35.0) years), a slower heart rate (69.0 (59.5, 76.5) beats/min vs. 77.0 (67.0, 88.0) beats/min), a higher proportion with family history of sudden cardiac death (30.3% vs. 14.5%), as well as longer QT intervals (500.0 (467.0, 594.0) ms vs. 428.0 (402.0, 470.0) ms) and QTc intervals (544.0 (502.5, 589.0) ms vs. 489.0 (480.0, 504.0) ms). Additionally, the event group had higher peak T-wave alternans value (65.0 (42.5, 85.3) μV vs. 44.0 (36.0, 54.0) μV), a higher proportion of patients with documented torsades de pointes (TdP) or ventricular fibrillation (VF) on 24-hour Holter monitoring (39.3% vs. 4.9%), and higher rates of pharmacological treatment (100.0% vs. 9.7%) and device therapy or left cardiac sympathetic denervation (45.5% vs. 2.2%) (all P<0.05). Multivariate Cox regression analysis identified that the heart rate<60 beats/min ( HR=2.0, 95% CI: 1.0-3.7) and QTc interval ≥500 ms ( HR=2.9, 95% CI: 1.5-5.6) on 12-lead ECG, as well as peak T-wave alternans value ≥55.5 μV ( HR=3.2, 95% CI: 1.3-7.8) and documented TdP or VF ( HR=2.0, 95% CI: 1.1-3.7) on 24-hour Holter monitoring were independent predictors of LAEs in LQTS patients (all P<0.05). Conclusion:Heart rate <60 beats/min and QTc interval ≥500 ms on 12-lead ECG, along with peak T-wave alternans value ≥55.5 μV and documented TdP or VF on 24-hour Holter monitoring, have been identified as independent predictors of LAEs in patients with LQTS. These ECG parameters may serve as valuable early indicators of sudden cardiac death in LQTS patients.

Objective:To understand the current status of core measures of enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) nursing in Anhui Province and analyze its promotion strategies, so we can provide reference for further implementation and promotion of clinical practice guidelines of ERAS.Methods:Design a Development Questionnaire of Enhanced Recovery After Surgery in Anhui Province based on the Clinical Practice Guidelines for Enhanced Recovery After Surgery in China (2021 edition) (I) and, a cross-sectional survey was conducted on surgical nurses in 132 secondary and above hospitals in Anhui Province from July to September 2023 by the convenience sampling method.Results:A total of 1 375 nurses from 13 cities in Anhui province participated in the survey. The nurses′ awareness rate of ERAS concept was 100.00%, but only 52.51% (722/1 375) of the nurses had received standardized ERAS training, and only 26.11% (359/1 375) of the nurses indicated that they had a multidisciplinary team such as medical care, anesthesia and nutrition were involved in the implementation of the ERAS. Nearly 38.33% (527/1 375) of the nurses said that the department lacked the relevant nursing quality control system, and the overall implementation rate of quality control training, development, feedback and monitoring was not high. Only 55.71% (766/1 375) of nurses reported that a quality control team has been established within their department, and only 40.44% (556/1 375) of departments conduct monthly checks on the implementation and progress of ERAS. In terms of the implementation of core measures, preoperative thromboprevention therapy, intraoperative temperature monitoring and management, postoperative multimodal analgesia were better; however, the implementation of preoperative fasting time ≤ 6 h, water ban time≤ 2 h, oral carbohydrate drinks or clean streaming drinks, oral intake of enteral nutritional supplementation when less than 60% of the normal amount was poor.Conclusions:There are still many deficiencies in the overall development of ERAS nursing in Anhui Province, and the implementation level of core measures also needs to be improved. It is necessary to combine the concept of precision nursing, strengthen the whole process management and quality control, so as to promote the clinical practice and promotion of ERAS.

Molecular targeted therapy has become an emerging promising strategy in cancer treatment, and screening the agents targeting at cancer cell specific targets is very desirable for cancer treatment. Our previous study firstly found that a secretory peroxidase of class III derived from foxtail millet bran (FMBP) exhibited excellent targeting anti-colorectal cancer (CRC) activity in vivo and in vitro, whereas its underlying target remains unclear. The highlight of present study focuses on the finding that cell surface glucose-regulated protein 78 (csGRP78) abnormally located on CRC is positively correlated with the anti-CRC effects of FMBP, indicating it serves as a potential target of FMBP against CRC. Further, we demonstrated that the combination of FMBP with the nucleotide binding domain (NBD) of csGRP78 interfered with the downstream activation of signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) in CRC cells, thus promoting the intracellular accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and cell grown inhibition. These phenomena were further confirmed in nude mice tumor model. Collectively, our study highlights csGRP78 acts as an underlying target of FMBP against CRC, uncovering the clinical potential of FMBP as a targeted agent for CRC in the future.

Objective To analyze the current status and influencing factors of job competence of clinical nursing teachers. Methods A total of 673 clinical nursing teachers from 35 second-level and above hospitals in Anhui Province were selected as research subjects using convenient sampling method. Their job competence was evaluated using the Clinical Nursing Teacher Post Competency Evaluation Scale. Results The score of job competence of clinical nursing teachers was 87.1±9.7. The results of multiple linear regression analysis showed that with the increase of service length and clinical teaching years，the job competence score of clinical nursing teachers increased（all P<0.05）. For those who thought the higher the satisfaction with the teaching atmosphere of the hospital，the hospital teaching training can meet their requirements and the higher the willingness to accept the teaching training，the higher their job competence score（all P<0.05）. Conclusion There is still much room for improvement in job competence of clinical nursing teachers in Anhui Province. The length of service，clinical teaching years， hospital teaching atmosphere，teaching training meeting demand，and willingness to accept clinical teaching training are the influencing factors of job competence of clinical nursing teachers.
