OBJECTIVE To develope a predictive model for medication deviation risks during the hospital-to-home transition period in coronary heart disease （CHD） patients with initial treatment， aiming to assist medical staff in rapidly identifying high-risk groups for medication deviation. METHODS A total of 462 CHD patients with initial treatment from the Affiliated Hospital of North China University of Science and Technology （hereinafter referred to as “our hospital”） between January and July 2024 were enrolled. The patients were randomly divided into a modeling group and an internal validation group. The modeling group was further categorized into a medication deviation group and a non-medication deviation group based on whether medication deviations occurred. Similarly， 57 CHD patients with initial treatment from the cardiology department of our hospital between June and September 2025 were collected as an external validation group. Univariate analysis was used to screen predictive factors， followed by multivariate Logistic regression to construct the predictive model. Internal validation methods were employed to evaluate model performance， while external validation methods were used to test the model’s generalizability. RESULTS The 462 patients were divided into a modeling group （319 cases） and an internal validation group （143 cases）. In the modeling group， the medication deviation group （192 cases， 60.19%） and the non-medication deviation group （127 cases， 39.81%） were identified. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis revealed that age， medication type， medication adherence， and self-efficacy in rational medication use were predictive factors for medication deviations in CHD patients with initial treatment （ P ＜0.05）. The predictive model equation was logit P ＝ln[ P /（1－ P ） ] ＝1.321+1.732×age+4.091×medication type －4.360×medication adherence －3.081×self-efficacy in rational medication use. The model demonstrated good discrimination， with a Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness-of-fit test P -value of 0.439， an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve （AUC） of 0.870， sensitivity of 0.970， and specificity of 0.607. A risk nomogram with a total score of 350 points and a cutoff value of 110 points was plotted. The internal validation group showed an AUC o f 0.787 and a prediction accuracy of 77.6%， while the external validation group exhibited an AUC of 0.802 and a prediction accuracy of 73.7%. CONCLUSIONS This study successfully developed a predictive model for medication deviation risks during the hospital-to-home transition period in CHD patients with initial treatment. The model demonstrates excellent discrimination and predictive accuracy， effectively identifying high-risk populations for medication deviations. Age （＞70 years）， number of drug types≥5， poor medication adherence， and poor self-efficacy in rational medication use are independent risk factors for medication deviations.

BACKGROUND: Pre-transplant exposure to immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) significantly increases the risk of allograft rejection after liver transplantation (LT); however, whether ICI-related rejection leads to increased graft loss remains controversial. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the association between ICI-related allograft rejection and perioperative graft loss. METHODS: This was a retrospective analysis of adult liver transplant recipients with early biopsy-proven T-cell-mediated rejection (TCMR) at Liver Transplantation Center of Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hospital from June 2019 to September 2024. The pathological features, clinical characteristics, and perioperative graft survival were analyzed. RESULTS: Twenty-eight patients who underwent early TCMR between June 2019 and September 2024 were included. Based on pre-LT ICI exposure, recipients were categorized into ICI-related TCMR (irTCMR, n = 12) and conventional TCMR (cTCMR, n = 16) groups. Recipients with irTCMR had a higher median Banff rejection activity index (RAI) (6 vs . 5, P = 0.012) and more aggressive tissue damage and inflammation. Recipients with irTCMR showed higher proportion of treatment resistance, achieving a complete resolution rate of only 8/12 compared to 16/16 for cTCMR. Graft loss occurred in 5/12 of irTCMR recipients within 90 days after LT, with no graft loss in cTCMRs recipients. Cox analysis demonstrated that irTCMR with an ICI washout period of <30 days was an independent risk factor for perioperative graft loss (hazard ratio [HR], 6.540; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.067-40.067, P = 0.042). CONCLUSION IrTCMR is associated with severe pathological features, increased resistance to treatment, and higher graft loss in adult liver transplant recipients.

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the influence of pharmaceutical quality control on the efficiency and outcomes of standardized medication therapy management （MTM） services for patients with coronary heart disease by using Economic， Clinical and Humanistic Outcomes （ECHO） model. METHODS This study collected case data of coronary heart disease patients who received MTM services during January-March 2023 （pre-quality control implementation group， n＝96） and June-August 2023 （post-quality control implementation group， n＝164）. Using propensity score matching analysis， 80 patients were selected from each group. The study subsequently compared the economic， clinical， and humanistic outcome indicators of pharmaceutical services between the two matched groups. RESULTS There were no statistically significant differences in baseline data between the two groups after matching （P＞0.05）. Compared with pre-quality control implementation group， the daily treatment cost （16.26 yuan vs. 24.40 yuan， P＜0.001）， cost-effectiveness ratio [23.12 yuan/quality-adjusted life year （QALY） vs. 32.32 yuan/QALY， P＜0.001]， and the incidence of general adverse drug reactions （2.50% vs. 10.00%， P＝0.049） of post-quality control implementation group were decreased significantly； the utility value of the EuroQol Five-Dimensional Questionnaire （0.74± 0.06 vs. 0.71±0.07， P＝0.003）， the reduction in the number of medication related problems （1.0 vs. 0.5， P＜0.001）， the medication adherence score （[ 6.32±0.48） points vs. （6.10±0.37） points， P＝0.001]， and the satisfaction score （[ 92.56±1.52） points vs. （91.95±1.56） points， P＝0.013] all showed significant improvements. Neither group experienced serious adverse drug reactions. There was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of new adverse reactions between the two groups （1.25% vs. 3.75%， P＝0.310）. CONCLUSIONS Pharmaceutical quality control can improve the quality of pharmaceutical care， and the ECHO model can quantitatively evaluate the effect of MTM services， making pharmaceutical care better priced and more adaptable to social needs， thus being worthy of promotion.

Objective:To study the effects of parenteral nutrition containing ω-3 fish oil fat emulsion on the inflammatory status of patients with intestinal fistula at the early stage.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on 28 patients with intestinal fistula who were admitted to the Sixth Department of General Surgery of Anhui Provincial Second People's Hospital from November 2023 to May 2024.The patients were either divided into control group(n=15,parenteral nutrition alone group)or study group(n=13,parenteral nutrition plus ω-3 fish oil fat emulsion)according to whether ω-3 fish oil fat emulsion was added to parenteral nutrition.Both groups of patients received parenteral nutrition support treatment,and the study group was given ω-3 fish oil fat emulsion during treatment.The general information,inflammatory factors in the blood,nutrition,and immune status of two groups of patients were collected and compared.The feces samples on the first and 14th day of admission were collected and analyzed by 16S rRNA high-throughput sequencing of gut microbiota.Results:There was no statistically significant difference in the general information,inflammation,nutrition,immune status,and gut microbiota between the two groups of patients on the first day of admission(P>0.05),indicating comparability between the two groups.After two weeks of parenteral nutrition support,the counts of red blood cells,white blood cells,platelets,lymphocytes,and levels of C-reactive protein,glutamate-pyruvate transaminase,aspartate aminotransferase,total bilirubin,direct bilirubin,total protein,albumin,and creatinine in the research group were similar to those in the control group without statistically significant differences(P>0.05).However,the counts of neutrophils and levels of blood urea nitrogen in the study group were significantly lower than those in the control group(P=0.03 and P=0.01).In addition,the abundance of intestinal flora in the study group was significantly higher than that in the control group(P<0.05).At the genus level,the abundance of Bacteroides_uniformis,Parabacteroides_merdae,Alistipes_finegoldii,Streptococcus_constellatus,Christensenella_minuta were different between the two groups after two weeks of treatment(P<0.05).Conclusion:Parenteral nutrition containing ω-3 fish oil fat emulsion can reduce the counts of neutrophils,which may alleviate inflammatory responses for patients with intestinal fistula at the early stage.

Acute ischemic stroke is the most common type of stroke, characterized by high mortality, disability, and recurrence rates. Intravenous thrombolysis is the core treatment method. Among them, alteplase is effective as the standard drug, but it has limitations such as narrow time window, high risk of bleeding, and the need for continuous infusion. The new generation of improved drug tenecteplase has the advantages of single intravenous injection and higher fibrin specificity, making it a potential alternative drug to alteplase. In addition, endovascular therapy compensates for the low recanalization rate of large vessel occlusion on the basis of intravenous thrombolysis. This article reviews the clinical progress of teneplase in the treatment of acute ischemic stroke, aiming to provide reference for optimizing the treatment plan of acute ischemic stroke.

Objective To compare the effectiveness of femoral neck system(FNS)and inverted triangle cannulated screws(ITCS)in the treatment of femoral neck fractures in young adults.Methods A retrospective study was conducted on 106 young and middle-aged patients who had been surgically treated for femoral neck fracture at our hospital from December 2020 to June 2022.The patients were assigned to FNS group(57 cases)or ITCS group(49 cases)according to the different internal fixations.The operation time,intraoperative fluoroscopy frequency,intraoperative blood loss,extra assisted reduction procedures(Kirschner wire prying reduction or open reduction),hospital stays,healing time,complications,postoperative recovery,and follow-up duration were compared between the two groups.Results The operation time,fluoroscopy frequency,and healing time in the FNS group were less than those in the ITCS group(P<0.001).The shortening degree and length of femoral neck in moderate and severe patients of the FNS group were lower than those of the ITCS group(P<0.001).The Harris score of the FNS group was higher than that of the ITCS group 12 months after surgery(P<0.001).There was no significant difference in intraoperative blood loss,reduction assistance,Garden index,or hospital stays between the two groups(P>0.05).Conclusion FNS is a better choice for internal fixation in patients with femoral neck fractures than ITCS,with faster recovery and less postoperative complications.

Objective To report the diagnosis,treatment,and verification process of a patient with sex development disorder whose chromosomal karyotype and genetic test results are inconsistent,and conduct a literature review to improve the understanding of the mosaic status of sexual development disorders.Methods A 14-year-old patient presented with primary amenorrhea on April 3,2020,at the First Affiliated Hospital of Hebei North University,exhibiting female sexual characteristics.The patient underwent ultrasonic/magnetic resonance imaging of gonads,assessment of gonadal axis function,chromosomal karyotype,and molecular genetic testing,as well as pelvic exploration,malignant gonads resection,and hormone replacement therapy,resulting in drug-induced menstruation.During the diagnosis and treatment,it was found that the patient's chromosomal karyotype analysis was inconsistent with the molecular genetic test results.Subsequently,samples from the three germ layer cells were taken,and fluorescence in situ hybridization(FISH)was used to detect the sex chromosomes in each germ layer cell.XY probes were used to label the gonadal pathological sections to explore the distribution differences of the Y chromosome in the gonads,and changes in anti-Müllerian hormone(AMH)levels before and after surgery were compared.Databases such as Wanfang and PubMed were searched to summarize relevant cohort study literature and understand the current status of research on this disease.Results The patient's body exhibited a significant differences between the 45,X and 46,XY cell lines in different germ layers and within the same layer tissues.The proportion of 45,X in buccal mucosal cells derived from the ectoderm was 30%(6/20),in peripheral blood lymphocytes derived from the mesoderm was 9.7%(11/114),and in bladder shed cells derived from endoderm was 20.4%(22/108).The gonadal pathological sections labeled with XY probes indicated a mosaic state with a reduced Y-chromosome;where the epididymal structure area had a 45,X cell line mosaic of 50.0%,and the malignant area had a normal"Y"content.After gonadal resection,AMH levels significantly dropped from 7.28 pmol/L to＜0.07 pmol/L.Literature review revealed that patients with 45,X/46,XY have a complex phenotype spectrum,most with features of Turner syndrome,and female phenotypes are at risk of gonadal tumors.Conclusions In the diagnosis of difficult cases of sex development disorders,when performing peripheral blood karyotype testing,the number of counted cells and analyzed cells should be increased as much as possible,and multi-germ layer cell sampling should be performed.Gonads with a high"Y"mosaic rate are more prone to malignancy in the abdominal cavity.Detecting AMH levels can distinguish cryptorchidism and anorchidism in sexual development disorders with Y chromosomes.

Objective To establish a stable,reliable,and clinically relevant porcine model of endotoxin-induced acute respiratory distress syndrome(ARDS).Methods Ten 8-month-old male Bama minipigs were deeply sedated,followed by invasive mechanical ventilation and electrocardiographic monitoring.Lipopolysaccharide(LPS)was intravenously pumped at 600 μg/(kg·h)for 3 hours,then maintained at 15 μg/(kg·h)thereafter.Dynamic monitoring was performed at five time points after LPS injection(LPS 0,1,3,5,and 8 h),including arterial blood gas analysis and chest computed tomography(CT)scans.Pathological examination of lung tissues obtained via bronchoscopic biopsy(HE staining and transmission electron microscopy)was conducted.These indicators were comprehensively used to evaluate the success of the animal model.Results At 5 hours after LPS administration,8 minipigs developed symptoms such as skin cyanosis,elevated body temperature,and respiratory distress.The oxygenation index decreased to<300 mmHg.Chest CT scans showed diffuse pulmonary infiltrates.Histopathology revealed alveolar edema and hyaline membrane formation.Transmission electron microscopy demonstrated disruption of pulmonary blood-air barrier,depletion of lamellar bodies in type Ⅱ pneumocytes,inflammatory cell infiltration,and exudation of plasma proteins and fibrin.Compared with LPS 0 h,at LPS 8 h,the oxygenation index and arterial blood pH were significantly decreased(P<0.001),while blood lactic acid and serum potassium were significantly increased(P<0.05);serum calcium and base excess were significantly decreased(P<0.05),and the lung injury score based on HE-stained lung sections was significantly increased(P<0.01).Conclusion The porcine ARDS model established by continuous LPS injection can dynamically simulate the pathophysiological characteristics and typical pathological manifestations of clinical septic ARDS,making it an effective tool to study the pathogenesis,prevention,and treatment strategies of septic ARDS.

Objective To explore the neuroprotective effects and mechanisms of asiaticoside(AS)in rats with transient cerebral ischemia.Methods One hundred male Sprague-Dawley(SD)rats were randomly divided into five groups:sham-operated(Sham)group,transient middle cerebral artery occlusion(tMCAO)group,and low-,medium-,and high-dose AS(AS-L,AS-M,AS-H)groups,with 20 rats in each group.Except for the Sham group,rats in the other four groups under-went tMCAO surgery.Rats in the AS-L,AS-M,and AS-H groups received intragastric administration of 20,40 and 80 mg/kg AS respectively,once daily for 7 days starting 1 hour post-surgery.Rats in the Sham and tMCAO groups received equivalent volumes of saline.Neurological deficit score,brain water content,and TTC staining were used to evaluate neurological impairment,cerebral edema,and infarct volume.HE staining and Nissl staining wereused to assess histopathological changes and neu-ronal damage.Autophagy was detected via transmission electron microscopy.Immunofluorescence staining was usedto analyze the expression and localization of microtubule-associated protein light chain 3B(LC3B).TUNEL staining was used to evaluate apoptosis,and Western blot was used to measure protein expression.Results Compared with the Sham group,rats in the tMCAO group ex-hibited significantly increased neurological deficit score,brain water content,infarct volume,and histopathological damage,as well as significantly decreased Nissl body counts(P＜0.05).AS dose-dependently reduced neurological deficits,brain water content,infarct volume,and histopatho-logical damage while increased Nissl body numbers.The tMCAO group showed significantly higher numbers of autophagosomes,lysosomes,and LC3B-positive cells,along with significantly elevated LC3-Ⅱ/LC3-Ⅰ,Beclin-1,Bax,cleaved caspase-3 compared to the Sham group;in contrast,p-PI3K,p-Akt,and p-mTOR protein levels,intact mitochondria count and p62 and Bcl-2 protein levels were significantly lower inthe tMCAO group(P＜0.05).Compared with the tMCAO group,AS treatment dose-dependently significantly decreased autophagosomes,lysosomes,LC3B-positive cells,and the expression of LC3-Ⅱ/LC3-Ⅰ,Beclin-1,Bax,cleaved caspase-3 while significantly increased p-PI3K,p-Akt,and p-mTOR protein,intact mitochondria and p62 and Bcl-2 levels(P＜0.05).Conclusion AS exerts neuroprotective effects by inhibiting excessive autophagy and apopto-sis in rats with transient cerebral ischemia via activation of the PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway.
