[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.

Objective: To investigate the association between occupational stress and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) among grassroots medical personnels, so as to provide the reference for improving their physical and mental well-being. Methods: From March to May 2024, medical staff from nine street community health service centers in Liangxi District, Wuxi City, Jiangsu Province were selected by a convenient sampling method. Basic information was collected through questionnaire surveys. Occupational stress was assessed using the Core Occupational Stress Measurement Scale. Health utility value and the Visual Analog Scale (EQ-VAS) score were investigated using the European Quality of Life Five-Dimension Five-Level (EQ-5D-5L) questionnaire. The association between occupational stress and HRQoL was analyzed using multiple linear regression model. Results: A total of 909 individuals were surveyed, including 141 males (15.51%) and 768 females (84.49%). The average occupational stress score was (24.41±9.45) points. The average health utility value was (0.96±0.07), with 372 individuals (40.92%) experiencing health problems in at least one dimension. The primarily problems were pain/discomfort and anxiety/depression, with 249 (27.39%) and 265 (29.15%) individuals, respectively. The average EQ-VAS score was (86.62±13.84) points. Multiple linear regression analysis revealed that occupation (nurses, β'=0.101; pharmacists, β'=0.101; medical technicians, β'=0.090), professional title (intermediate, β'=-0.079; associate senior, β'=-0.081; senior, β'=-0.101), and occupational stress (β'=-0.288) were influencing factors for health utility value. Occupation (nurses, β'=0.087; pharmacists, β'=0.146; medical technicians, β'=0.073) and occupational stress (β'=-0.226) were influencing factors for EQ-VAS score. After adjusting for variables such as gender, age, educational level, occupation, professional title, work experience, and monthly income, grassroots medical personnels with higher occupational stress score had lower health utility values (β'=-0.296) and EQ-VAS score (β'=-0.237). Conclusions Occupational stress can reduce the HRQoL among grassroots medical personnels. It is recommended to regularly assess occupational stress levels and intervene early to address their psychological and physical health issues.

Objective:To investigate the application effect of case-based collaborative learning (CBCL) based on data-information-knowledge-wisdom (DKIW) model in the training of the informatization teaching ability of clinical teachers.Methods:From March to August in 2022, 71 clinical teachers from four grade A tertiary hospitals in Tianjin, China, were selected as subjects and were randomly divided into control group with 35 patients and experimental group with 36 patients using a random number table. The teachers in the control group received blended teaching online and offline, and those in the experimental group received CBCL teaching based on DIKW model. The two groups were compared in terms of theoretical assessment score, informatization teaching demonstration score, and informatization teaching ability score before and after intervention. SPSS 27.0 was used for the t-test and the Mann-Whitney U rank sum test. Results:Compared with the control group after intervention, the experimental group had significantly higher scores of theoretical assessment (83.50±3.11) and informatization teaching demonstration (84.19±1.89) ( P<0.05). After intervention, the control group had significant increases in the total score of informatization teaching ability (74.34±4.08) and the scores of each dimension (15.40±1.19, 19.29±1.62, 28.54±1.67, and 11.11±1.79), and the experimental group also had significant increases in the total score of informatization teaching ability (83.64±5.25) and the scores of each dimension (16.53±1.21, 20.94±1.98, 33.03±2.10, and 13.14±1.48); the experimental group had significantly higher scores than the control group ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The CBCL teaching model based on DIKW model can help to improve the comprehensive informatization teaching ability of clinical teachers.

Objective To explore the primary etiology of pregnancy complicated with pulmonary hypertension,analyze the pregnancy outcome and related influencing factors of patients,and provide new evidence-based medical data for guiding the pregnancy management of these patients.Methods A total of 57 pregnant women with pulmonary hypertension who terminated their pregnancy in the General Hospital of Northern Theater Command were selected and divided into the mild group(26 cases),the moderate group(20 cases)and the severe group(11 cases)according to the severity of pulmonary hypertension,and 138 pregnant women with normal pulmonary artery pressure during the same period were selected as the control group.The clinical data of pregnant women in all groups were collected and compared,and the primary etiology of pulmonary hypertension,the pregnancy outcome of patients with different severity of pulmonary hypertension and its related influencing factors were analyzed.Results Congenital heart disease(CHD)was the main primary etiology of pregnant women with pulmonary hypertension,accounting for 63.2%.There was significant difference in the proportion of patients with complex CHD in different groups(P<0.05).The proportion of patients with grade Ⅲ to Ⅳ heart function in the severe group was significantly higher than those in the control group,the mild group and the moderate group,with statistically significant differences(P<0.05).The proportion of patients with abnormal electrocardiogram in the severe group was higher than those in the mild group and the control group,and the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).The delivery rate of full-term live infants in the control group and the mild group were much higher than those in the moderate group and the severe group,and the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).The stillbirth rate in the severe group was higher than those in the other groups,and the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).The neonatal asphyxia rate in the control group and the mild group were lower than those in the moderate group and the severe group,and the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).The birth weight of newborns in the control group and the mild group were higher than those in the moderate group and the severe group,and the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).Conclusion The most common primary etiology of pregnancy complicated with pulmonary hypertension is CHD.Pregnant women with mild or moderate pulmonary hypertension have lower risk of adverse pregnancy outcomes than pregnant women with severe pulmonary hypertension.Doppler two-dimensional ultrasound evaluation and monitoring of pulmonary artery pressure of pregnant women can be used to intervene in time to improve pregnancy and fetal outcome.

Objective:To investigate the expression and clinical significance of CD30 in patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma(DLBCL).Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on 124 cases of primary DLBCL diagnosed at Changzhou Second People's Hospital Affiliated with Nanjing Medical University from January 2018 to July 2020.The expression of CD30 in patients with DLBCL was detected by immunohistochemical method,and the clinicopathological characteristics were analyzed and compared between CD30+and CD30-groups.Kaplan-Meier analysis was used for survival analysis.The relationship between CD30 expression and clinical features and prognosis were analyzed.Results:Among the 124 patients with DLBCL,19 patients expressed CD30,and the positive rate is 15.32％.The clinico-pathological characteristics of CD30+in patients with DLBCL were characterized by low age,more common in males,fewer extranodal lesions,lower international prognostic index(IPI),GCB type being more common in Hans subtype,and achieving better therapeutic effects(P＜0.05).However,there were no significant statistical differences in B-symptoms(P=0.323),Ann Arbor staging(P=0.197),Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group(ECOG)score(P=0.479),lactate dehydrogenase(LDH)(P=0.477),and the involvement of bone marrow(P=0.222).There were significant differences in OS and PFS between the CD30+and CD30-groups(x2=5.653,P=0.017;x2=4.109,P=0.043),the CD30+group had a better prognosis than that of the CD30-group.The results of subgroup analysis showed that the CD30+group in the IPI score=1-2,LDH elevated group had a better prognosis(P＜0.05).In the subgroups of Ann Arbor staging Ⅲ-Ⅳ(P=0.055)and non GCB type(P=0.053),the CD30+group had a good prognosis trend,but the difference was not statistically significant.The results of univariate analysis showed that the good prognosis of DLBCL patients was closely related to CD30+expression,no B-symptoms,early Ann Arbor staging,low ECOG score,normal LDH,low IPI score,fewer extranodal involvement,and obtaining the best therapeutic effect as CR(all P＜0.05).COX multivariate regression analysis showed that the presence of B-symptoms and achieving the best therapeutic effect as Non-CR were independent risk factors affecting the prognosis of DLBCL patients(P＜0.05).Conclusion:The CD30+expression in DLBCL patients indicates a good prognosis and has certain diagnostic value in evaluating the prognosis of DLBCL patients.

Objective:To establish a set of artificial intelligence (AI) verification rules for blood routine analysis.Methods:Blood routine analysis data of 18 474 hospitalized patients from the First Hospital of Jilin University during August 1st to 31st, 2019, were collected as training group for establishment of the AI verification rules,and the corresponding patient age, microscopic examination results, and clinical diagnosis information were collected. 92 laboratory parameters, including blood analysis report parameters, research parameters and alarm information, were used as candidate conditions for AI audit rules; manual verification combining microscopy was considered as standard, marked whether it was passed or blocked. Using decision tree algorithm, AI audit rules are initially established through high-intensity, multi-round and five-fold cross-validation and AI verification rules were optimized by setting important mandatory cases. The performance of AI verification rules was evaluated by comparing the false negative rate, precision rate, recall rate, F1 score, and pass rate with that of the current autoverification rules using Chi-square test. Another cohort of blood routine analysis data of 12 475 hospitalized patients in the First Hospital of Jilin University during November 1sr to 31st, 2023, were collected as validation group for validation of AI verification rules, which underwent simulated verification via the preliminary AI rules, thus performance of AI rules were analyzed by the above indicators. Results:AI verification rules consist of 15 rules and 17 parameters and do distinguish numeric and morphological abnormalities. Compared with auto-verification rules, the true positive rate, the false positive rate, the true negative rate, the false negative rate, the pass rate, the accuracy, the precision rate, the recall rate and F1 score of AI rules in training group were 22.7%, 1.6%, 74.5%, 1.3%, 75.7%, 97.2%, 93.5%, 94.7%, 94.1, respectively.All of them were better than auto-verification rules, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.001), and with no important case missed. In validation group, the true positive rate, the false positive rate, the true negative rate, the false negative rate, the pass rate, the accuracy, the precision rate, the recall rate and F1 score were 19.2%, 8.2%, 70.1%, 2.5%, 72.6%, 89.2%, 70.0%, 88.3%, 78.1, respectively, Compared with the auto-verification rules, The false negative rate was lower, the false positive rate and the recall rate were slightly higher, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.001). Conclusion:A set of the AI verification rules are established and verified by using decision tree algorithm of machine learning, which can identify, intercept and prompt abnormal results stably, and is moresimple, highly efficient and more accurate in the report of blood analysis test results compared with auto-vefication.
