Direct compression is an ideal method for tablet preparation, but it requires the powder's high functional properties. The functional properties of the powder during compression directly affect the quality of the tablet. 15 parameters such as Py, FES-8KN, FES-12KN, FES-16KN, CR-8KN, CR-12KN, and CR-16KN were used as the characteristic variables in this paper. Unsupervised learning methods like principal component analysis, cluster analysis, and factor analysis were applied to analyze and classify the compression behavior data of 36 traditional Chinese medicine powders. The results showed that both different dimensionality reduction classification methods could effectively differentiate the compression behavior characteristics of 36 traditional Chinese medicine compound powders. The hierarchical cluster analysis results showed a better agreement with the actual compression phenomena of the powders, where group 1 was high elasticity and low compressibility, group 2 was easily compressed and hard to break, group 3 was excellent compressibility and compactibility. This study is expected to provide references and ideas for predicting the behavior of traditional Chinese medicine powders and the screening of tablet formulations.

In this study, high-performance liquid chromatography coupled with tantrum mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS) technology was employed to determine milrinone nitrogen oxides in milrinone. An ACCHROM XCharge-C18 column (100 mm × 2.1 mm, 5 μm) was used with a mobile phase consisting of A phase (methanol) and B phase (5 mmol/L NH4FA, pH3 adjusted by formic acid). Agilent 6410B triple quadrupole mass spectrometer was used for HPLC-MS/MS analysis. Detection was performed using positive electrospray ionization (ESI+) in multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) mode to analyze the limit of milrinone nitrogen oxides in milrinone, and the quantitative transition for the ion pair was from m/z 228.01 to m/z 181.90. Experimental results showed that the method exhibited good specificity, and that neither blank solvent nor blank samples interfered with the determination of milrinone nitrogen oxides of milrinone. The method demonstrated high sensitivity, with a limit of quantitation (LOQ) of 0.0076 μg/mL and a limit of detection (LOD) of 0.0038 μg/mL. The linear range spanned from 20% to 200% of the LOQ concentration, and a good linear relationship between concentration and peak area was observed within this range. Additionally, the recovery rates were consistently within the range of 80% to 120%, and the RSD for repeatability tests was 12.0%. These results indicated that the precision and accuracy of this method meet the required standards. In summary, the method developed in this study can effectively and accurately determine the content of milrinone nitrogen oxides in milrinone.

Aim To investigate the dynamic changes of neuronal cells at different time points following acute cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury by establishing a model of brain ischemia-reperfusion injury.Methods Thirty male Sprague-Dawley(SD)rats were ran-domly divided into six groups:sham group and cere-bral ischemia-reperfusion injury(IR)groups at differ-ent time points.Focal cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury model was established using the middle cerebral artery occlusion(MCAO)technique.The Longa sco-ring method was used to assess neurobehavioral scores in rats.After successful model preparation,routine paraffin sections were made,and TUNEL staining and immunohistochemistry staining with NeuN antibody were performed to observe cell apoptosis and neuronal cell survival,respectively.Immunohistochemistry stai-ning was also performed to investigate the changes in glial fibrillary acidic protein(GFAP)as a marker for astrocytes,ionized calcium-binding adapter molecule 1(IBA-1)as a marker for microglia,and CD31 as a marker for endothelial cells at different time points.Results No significant changes were observed in neu-ronal cells of the sham group at different time points.In the cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury groups,cell apoptosis was activated at IR3h and increased in quan-tity with morphological damage as time progressed.Ne-uN+neurons showed signs of ischemic injury after IR3h,with abnormal cell morphology.From 12 h,Ne-uN+neurons decreased in a time-dependent manner and reached their peak severity at 24 h.GFAP+astro-cytes decreased significantly after IR3h,while poorly labeled GFAP+astrocytes increased at IR 6 h and al-most disappeared in the infarcted area at 24 h and 48 h.The number of IBA-1+microglia-positive cells de-creased at IR3h,and their volume increased at IR6h.Microglial cell death was observed in the infarcted area at IR12h.CD31+endothelial cells around the infarc-ted cortex and striatum increased significantly after IR3h and persisted until 48 h.Conclusions After cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury,the number of ap-optotic cells increases with the prolongation of time,and NeuN+neurons exhibit the most severe damage at 24 h.GFAP+astrocytes and microglial cells gradually die over time.The number of CD31+endothelial cells increases significantly around the infarcted cortex and striatum after 3 h of reperfusion and persists until 48 h.

Objective:To define the definition and connotation of nursing shame by using Walker-Avant classical conceptual analysis.Methods:Literature was systematically searched from CNKI, Wanfang, VIP, PubMed, Web of Science, Wiley Online Library, ScienceDirect and CINAHL, and articles were screened according to inclusion and exclusion criteria. Based on Walker-Avant classical conceptual analysis, the concept of nursing shame was analyzed from the aspects of defining attribute, antecedent factors and post factors.Results:The three defining attributes of nursing shame included negative self-evaluation, avoidance and withdrawal and self-breakthrough. Antecedent factors included non-compliance with self-expectations and clinical bullying. Post-effects included physical and mental impairment and departure of nurses, increased patient burden and hindered expression. However, nursing shame could also be positive by cultivating shame resilience and become a psychological motivation for nurses to reflect and adjust themselves.Conclusions:The conceptual attribute of nursing shame is clarified through conceptual analysis, which lays a theoretical foundation for the future development or localization of targeted measurement tools to effectively identify and deal with nursing shame.

Objective To systematically evaluate the risk prediction model for central venous catheter-related bloodstream infections and provide references for clinical practice.Methods Databases such as CNKI,Wanfang,CBM,VIP,PubMed,Web of Science,Cochrane Library,etc.were retrieved.The search period is from database establishment to June 2,2023.There are 2 researchers who independently screened and extracted the literature,and evaluated the quality of the literature using bias assessment tools of predictive model risk.Results A total of 9 articles were included,including 9 risk prediction models for catheter-related bloodstream infections.The total sample size was 80～11 901 cases;the number of outcome events was 19～403 cases;the C index of the included model was 0.81～0.93.The area under the curve of the subjects ranged from 0.73～0.90.The predictors that appear more frequently in the model mainly included the history of diabetes,albumin value,the number of days of catheterization,the location of catheterization.The evaluation results of the bias assessment tool of predictive model risk for research show that the overall applicability of the included risk prediction models is good,but the bias risk is high.The reasons are related to the improper source of research sample data,inappropriate processing of continuous variable methods,failure to process missing data,insufficient model performance evaluation,and non-standard evaluation indicators.Conclusion There are still some shortcomings in the risk prediction model for central venous catheter-related bloodstream infections.In the future,the quality of related model research should be further improved,especially in terms of predictive factor analysis,model evaluation indicators,etc.,which should be further standardized.

AIM To investigate the effects of Xinyue Capsules on the expression of glycerophospholipid metabolizing enzymes in isoproterenol(ISO)-induced rat heart tissue and primary myocardial cells of neonatal rats.METHODS The SD rats were randomly divided into the normal group,the model group,the Xinyue Capsules intervention group and Xinyue Capsules control group,with 8 rats in each group.The rat model of cardiac hypertrophy was established by 14 days consecutive intraperitoneal injection of ISO(30 mg/kg).Prior to the modeling,once daily administration of 0.393 g/kg Xinyue Capsules was given by gavage from 3 days in advance to the end of the experiment.After the last administration,the procurement of blood from abdominal aorta,the left and right ventricles were processed.And the rats had their indices levels of the heart,the left ventricle and the right ventricle measured;their pathomorphological changes of myocardial tissue observed using HE staining;their expressions of cardiac hypertrophy-related myocardial embryonic genes ANP,β-MHC and α-SKA mRNA detected using RT-qPCR method;and their serum TC,TG,LDL-C and HDL-C levels detected by biochemical method.In in vitro experiment,the neonatal rat model of myocardial hypertrophy was induced by exposure to ISO 1 μmol/L for 24 h.The investigation of the effect of Xinyue Capsules 12.5 μg/mL on ISO-induced myocardial hypertrophy was conducted by detection of myocardial cell area,embryo genes related to cardiac hypertrophy and myocardial cells protein cuntent.The further anti-cardiac hypertrophy mechanism of Xinyue Capsules research was conducted using RT-qPCR and Western blot to detect the gene and protein expressions of phospholipase A2(PLA2G6),phospholipase A1 member A(PLA1A)and lecithin cholesterol acyltransferase(LCAT)in left ventricle tissue and myocardial cells of each group.RESULTS The in vivo experimental result showed that compared with the normal group,the model group displayed increased indices levels of the heart,the left ventricle and the right ventricle and cross-sectional area of left ventricular myocytes(P＜0.05);and up-regulated expressions of ANP,β-MHC,α-SKA mRNA and PLA2G6,PLA1A and LCAT mRNA and proteins in the left ventricle(P＜0.05);and increased levels of serum TC,TG and LDL-C(P＜0.05);and decreased HDL-C level(P＜0.05).However,the intervention of Xinyue Capsules inhibited the changes of the aforementioned indices(P＜0.05).The in vitro experimental result revealed that Xinyue Capsules inhibited the ISO-induced increases of myocardial cell surface area and myocardial cell protein level,the up-regulation of ANP,β-MHC,α-SKA mRNA expressions and the PLA2G6,PLA1A,LCAT mRNA and protein expressions as well(P＜0.05).CONCLUSION Xinyue Capsules can improve the ISO-induced cardiac hypertrophy in rats,and its mechanism may be associated with its regulation upon the expressions of glycerophospholipid metabolism-related enzymes PLA2G6,PLA1A and LCAT.

Objective:To evaluate the effect of family intervention on self-management and glycaemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).Methods:Clinical interventional trials on the family intervention for T2DM patients were searched in PubMed, Medline, Embase, Cochrance libraries, the CNKI, and the Wan Fang Database from January 2016 to June 2023. Literature was screened according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Self-management behavior, BMI and glycated haemoglobin of T2DM patients were used as outcome indicators. Meta-analysis and mapping were performed using Review Manager 5.3 software. A systematic review of the literature on indicators of self-management behavior measured using other instruments except Summary of Diabetes Self-Care Activities.Results:A total of 1 342 relevant papers were retrieved and 13 papers were included in the analysis, involving 1 454 patients, 740 in the intervention group and 714 in the control group. Meta-analysis showed that the inclusion of home-based intervention helped adult T2DM patients to improve self-management ( WMD=5.03, 95% CI:4.43-5.63, P<0.001) and reduce glycated hemoglobin compared with the hospital-patient dichotomous model ( WMD=-0.77, 95% CI:-1.32--0.21, P=0.007), but the effect on BMI was unclear ( WMD=-0.38, 95% CI:-1.04-0.28, P=0.25). The results of the systematic review supported that home-based intervention improving self-management behaviors of adult T2DM patients. Conclusion:Family intervention can improve self-management behaviors and reduce glycated haemoglobin levels in adults T2DM patients.
