Objective: To establish a prediction model for high-risk cardiovascular disease (CVD) among residents aged 35 to 75 years, so as to provide the basis for improving CVD prevention and control measures. Methods: Permanent residents aged 35 to 75 years were selected from Dongcheng District, Beijing Municipality using the stratified random sampling method from 2018 to 2023. Demographic information, lifestyle, waist circumference and blood biochemical indicators were collected through questionnaire surveys, physical examinations and laboratory tests. Influencing factors for high-risk CVD among residents aged 35 to 75 years were identified using a multivariable logistic regression model, and a prediction model for high-risk CVD was established. The predictive effect was evaluated using the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. Results: A total of 6 968 individuals were surveyed, including 2 821 males (40.49%) and 4 147 females (59.51%), and had a mean age of (59.92±9.33) years. There were 1 155 high-risk CVD population, with a detection rate of 16.58%. Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that gender, age, smoking, central obesity, systolic blood pressure, fasting blood glucose, triglyceride and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol were influencing factors for high-risk CVD among residents aged 35 to 75 years (all P<0.05). The area under the ROC curve of the established prediction model was 0.849 (95%CI: 0.834-0.863), with a sensitivity of 0.693 and a specificity of 0.863, indicating good discrimination. Conclusion The model constructed by eight factors including demographic characteristics, lifestyle and blood biochemical indicators has good predictive value for high-risk CVD among residents aged 35 to 75 years.

The red doctor culture runs through the development process of China’s red health undertakings. It is a unity of revolutionary culture， health culture， and educational culture， providing rich educational resources for ideological and political education in medical colleges and universities. From the perspective of historical logic， red doctor culture is rooted in the traditional medical ethics thought of “medicine is the art of benevolence” in ancient China， as well as has evolved alongside the century-long development of the health and well-being undertakings led by the Communist Party of China. From the perspective of theoretical logic， red doctor culture is closely related to Xi Jinping Thought on Culture， the principle of the dialectical relationship between social existence and social consciousness， and the theory of cultural leadership. From the perspective of practical logic， it is necessary to clarify the practical path from three aspects， namely accurately grasping the Marxist theoretical foundation of the red doctor culture and highlighting its orientation of the ideological and political education of medical students； making effective use of existing resources of red doctor culture to improve the content of ideological and political education and consolidate the foundation of red doctor literacy； optimizing the construction of teaching teams for ideological and political theory courses in medical colleges and universities. From the perspective of value orientation， the red doctor culture is conducive to cultivating the professional ethics spirit of medical students， meeting the teaching needs of ideological and political theory courses in medical colleges and universities， and assisting the construction of the healthy China initiative.

Objective To explore the value of serum soluble transferrin receptor(sTFR)and urinary tryp-sin inhibitor(Bikunin)in assessing the short-term prognosis of patients with hepatitis B virus related acute on chronic live failure(HBV-ACLF).Methods A total of 103 patients with HBV-ACLF admitted to Weifang People's Hospital from January 2019 to December 2022 were collected as HBV-ACLF group,who were classi-fied into early stage group(n=46),middle stage group(n=34)and late stage group(n=23)according to the disease progression,and classified into good prognosis group(n=67)and poor prognosis group(n=36)according to clinical outcomes at 30 d after hospital admission.At the same time,65 patients with chronic hep-atitis B virus infection were selected as chronic hepatitis B group and 65 healthy volunteers were selected as control group were enrolled in the study.The clinical medical records of research objects were collected at the time of admission.Serum sTFR and Bikunin levels were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.Spearman rank correlation analysis was performed to analyze the association between serum sTFR,Bikunin and disease progression.Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was performed to analyze factors affecting short-term poor prognosis of patients with HBV-ACLF.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was used to assess the predictive value of serum sTFR and Bikunin on prognosis.Results Serum sTFR and Bikun-in levels were lower in HBV-ACLF group and chronic hepatitis B group than those in control group,and those in HBV-ACLF group were lower than those in chronic hepatitis B group,and the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05).Model for End-Stage Liver Disease(MELD)score was higher in HBV-ACLF group and chronic hepatitis B group than that in control group,and that in HBV-ACLF group was higher than that in chronic hepatitis B group,and the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05).Compared with early stage group,serum sTFR and Bikunin levels decreased in middle stage group and late stage group,and those in late stage group were lower than those in middle stage group,and the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05).MELD score increased in middle stage group and late stage group,and that in late stage group was higher than that in middle stage group,and the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05).Serum sTFR and Bikunin in HBV-ACLF patients were associated with MELD score(r=-0.638,-0.592,P＜0.05),which were also associated with severity of disease(rs=-0.722,-0.671,P＜0.05).Elevated HB-sAg,elevated quantitative HBV DNA,middle and late stages of HBV-ACLF and elevated MELD score were independent risk factors for poor short-term prognosis in patients with HBV-ACLF(OR＞1,P＜0.05),while elevated serum sTFR and Bikunin were protective factors for poor short-term prognosis in patients with HBV-ACLF(OR＜1,P＜0.05).Serum sTFR and Bikunin both had some predictive value for poor short-term prog-nosis,and the predictive value of the combination was greater than that of single indicator(Z=2.139,2.165,P＜0.05).Conclusion Serum sTFR and Bikunin levels are decreased in patients with HBV-ACLF,which are associated with disease progression and short-term prognosis.Early combined detection of two indicators could predict the risk of poor prognosis in patients with HBV-ACLF at 30 d after hospital admission.

Objective:To systematically evaluate the effect of different durations of prone ventilation on the efficacy of patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS).Methods:A computer search was conducted in databases including PubMed, Cochrane Library, Embase, CNKI, Wanfang Database, VIP Database, and China Biomedical Literature Database for studies on prone ventilation for the treatment of adult patients with ARDS published from the establishment of the database to September 2023. Studies were categorized into ≤24 hours group and > 24 hours group based on the duration of prone ventilation. Outcome indicators included mortality, the length of intensive care unit (ICU) stay, incidence of pressure ulcers, and operation of tracheotomy. Two researchers independently screened the literature, extracted information, and evaluated the risk of bias of the included literature. The quality of the included literature was assessed using the NOS scale, and the effect of different durations of prone ventilation on the efficacy of ARDS was analyzed by Meta-analysis.Results:A total of 517 patients from 4 papers were finally included, including 249 patients with prone ventilation duration ≤24 hours and 268 patients with prone ventilation duration > 24 hours. All 4 studies were cohort studies, and the overall inclusion of literature assessed for methodological quality indicated high study quality and low risk of bias. Meta-analysis showed that there were no significantly differences in mortality [relative risk ( RR) = 1.02, 95% confidence interval (95% CI) was 0.79 to 1.31, P = 0.88], the length of ICU stay [mean difference ( MD) = -2.68, 95% CI was -5.30 to - 0.05, P = 0.05] between the prone ventilation duration ≤ 24 hours group and prone ventilation duration > 24 hours group. Compared with the prone ventilation duration ≤24 hours group, the incidence of pressure ulcers ( RR = 0.76, 95% CI was 0.59 to 0.98, P = 0.04) and the operation of tracheotomy ( RR = 0.71, 95% CI was 0.53 to 0.94, P = 0.02) were significantly increased in the prone ventilation duration > 24 hours group. Conclusions:The duration of prone ventilation had no significant effect on the mortality and the length of ICU stay in ARDS patients, but prone ventilation for > 24 hours increased the incidence of pressure ulcers and the operation of tracheotomy, which still needs to be further verified by a large number of studies due to the small number of included studies.

Objective To explore the challenges and reform strategies of price management in public hospitals under the background of high-quality development.Methods This study uses a tertiary hospital in Guangdong as a case study,analyzed the current situation and challenges of price management from an overall perspective,and proposed effective strategies.Results With the ongoing reforms in medical service prices and health insurance policies,and the increasing need to improve patient expe-rience and hospital operational efficiency,we have identified significant limitations in traditional price management models.These limitations include the inability to adapt to continuous changes in external pricing policies,inadequate organizational structure and professional knowledge,lack of regulatory systems and information platforms,and lagging development of medical service pro-jects.To address these issues,the hospital conducted comprehensive evaluations of the Price Management Committee,Price Man-agement Department,and relevant business departments,adopting a problem-oriented approach to fill institutional gaps and ac-tively respond to new challenges.Conclusion Through the implementation of institutionalized,standardized,intelligent and dy-namic reform measures for price management,the level and ability of hospital price management can be improved and meet the re-quirements of high-quality development.

Objective:To explore the predictive value of the prognostic nutritional index (PNI) in concurrently infected patients with acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF).Methods:220 cases with ACLF diagnosed and treated at the First Affiliated Hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong University from January 2011 to December 2016 were selected. Patients were divided into an infection and non-infection group according to whether they had co-infections during the course of the disease. Clinical data differences were compared between the two groups of patients. Binary logistic regression analysis was used to screen out influencing factors related to co-infection. The receiver operating characteristic curve was used to evaluate the predictive value of PNI for ACLF co-infection. The measurement data between groups were compared using the independent sample t-test and the Mann-Whitney U rank sum test. The enumeration data were analyzed using the Fisher exact probability test or the Pearson χ2 test. The Pearson method was performed for correlation analysis. The independent risk factors for liver failure associated with co-infection were analyzed by multivariate logistic analysis. Results:There were statistically significant differences in ascites, hepatorenal syndrome, PNI score, and albumin between the infection and the non-infection group ( P ?

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.

Aural vertigo frequently encountered in the otolaryngology department of traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） mainly involves peripheral vestibular diseases of Western medicine， such as Meniere's disease， benign paroxysmal positional vertigo， vestibular neuritis， and vestibular migraine， being a hot research topic in both TCM and Western medicine. Western medical therapies alone have unsatisfactory effects on recurrent aural vertigo， aural vertigo affecting the quality of life， aural vertigo not relieved after surgery， aural vertigo with complex causes， and children's aural vertigo. The literature records and clinical practice have proven that TCM demonstrates unique advantages in the treatment of aural vertigo. The China Association of Chinese medicine sponsored the "17th youth salon on the diseases responding specifically to TCM： Aural vertigo" and invited vertigo experts of TCM and Western medicine to discuss the difficulties and advantages of TCM diagnosis and treatment of aural vertigo. The experts deeply discussed the achievements and contributions of TCM and Western medicine in the diagnosis and treatment of aural vertigo， the control and mitigation of the symptoms， and the solutions to disease recurrence. The discussion clarified the positioning and advantages of TCM treatment and provided guidance for clinical and basic research on aural vertigo.

Objective To investigate the effect of smoking on the semen quality in infertile men.Methods A total of 360 male infertility patients were enrolled and divided into the smoking group(n=190)and non-smoking group(n=170)based on whether they smoked or not.Furthermore,the smoking group was subdivided into group A(≤10 sticks/d,n=63),group B(11～20 sticks/d,n=80),and group C(>20 sticks/d group,n=47)according to the amount of smoking.Semen volume,liquefaction time,sperm concentration,motility,DNA fragmentation rate and normal morphological rate were observed and compared between and within the groups.Results There were significant differences in semen volume,liquefaction time,sperm motility,normal morphological rate and DNA fragmentation rate between the smoking group and the non-smoking group(P<0.05).The semen volume,sperm motility and normal morphological rate of the smoking group were lower than those in the non-smoking group,and the DNA fragmentation rate and semen liquefaction time were higher than those in the non-smoking group.And with the increase of smoking volume,sperm motility and normal morphological rate decreased,semen liquefaction time and DNA fragmentation rate increased,and there was no significant difference in the sperm concentration between the smoking group and non-smoking group(P>0.05).There was no significant difference in the semen volume between the three groups with different smoking amounts(P>0.05).Conclusion Smoking has a negative impact on the sperm quality parameters such as semen volume,sperm motility,normal morphological rate,sperm motility,liquefaction time and DNA fragmentation,and the effect of heavy smoking is particularly obvious.We should strengthen the comprehensive health education,promote the healthy lifestyles and reduce smoking.

BACKGROUND:Platelet-rich fibrin(PRF)is a second generation platelet concentrate with the advantages of simple operation,no anticoagulant,and high bioactivity,which has been applied in the fields of trauma repair,bone defect repair,and tendon soft tissue repair,and has been proved to have a certain tissue repair-promoting effect. OBJECTIVE:To study the repair effect of PRF on articular cartilage tissue in rats with knee osteoarthritis. METHODS:Thirty-six Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into normal group,model group,and PRF group,with 12 rats in each group.Rats in the normal group did not undergo any treatment.In the model group,animal models of knee osteoarthritis were prepared and rat models were then given physiological saline into the joint cavity once a week after surgery.Rat models of knee osteoarthritis were also prepared in the PRF group,and autologous PRF was injected into the joint cavity once a week after surgery.After 5 weeks of continuous treatment,tissue samples were taken.Hematoxylin-eosin staining was used to observe the morphology of cartilage tissue.Tunel staining was used to detect chondrocyte apoptosis,ELISA was used to detect inflammatory factor levels.Western blot and RT-PCR were used to detect Bcl-2,Bax,and Caspase-3 expression in protein and mRNA levels,respectively. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The model group had severe cartilage tissue damage,while the PRF group had significantly improved cartilage tissue morphology compared with the model group.The model group had more apoptotic chondrocytes.Compared with the model group,the mean absorbance of Tunel positive staining in the PRF group significantly decreased(P<0.01).The levels of interleukin-1β,interleukin-6 and tumor necrosis factor-α were significantly increased in the model group and PRF group compared with the normal group(P<0.01)and were significantly decreased in the PRF group compared with the model group(P<0.01).The relative expressions of Bax and Caspase-3 at protein and mRNA levels were significantly increased in the model group and PRF group compared with the normal group(P<0.01),while the relative expressions of Bcl-2 at protein and mRNA were significantly decreased(P<0.01).Compared with the model group,the relative expression of Bax and Caspase-3 at protein and mRNA levels were significantly decreased in the PRF group(P<0.01),while the relative expressions of Bcl-2 at protein and mRNA levels were significantly increased(P<0.01).To conclude,PRF can inhibit chondrocyte apoptosis by inhibiting the expression of pro-inflammatory factors,thereby promoting cartilage tissue repair in knee osteoarthritis rats.
