ObjectiveTo investigate the structural and functional characteristics of gut microbiota in common traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） syndromes of irritable bowel syndrome with diarrhea （IBS-D）. MethodsIBS-D patients who visited the Hospital of Chengdu University of Traditional Chinese Medicine， and healthy participants from the Physical Examination Centre of the same hospital were recruited from 1st January 2020 to 31st March 2021.The IBS-D patients were classified into syndrome of liver constraint and spleen deficiency， and syndrome of spleen deficiency and dampness exuberance； together with the recruited healthy participants， there were liver-constraint group， dampness-exuberance group， and healthy group. General information， including age， gender and body mass index （BMI）， were collected， and Irritable Bowel Syndrome Symptom Severity Scale （IBS-SSS） as well as Irritable Bowel Syndrome Quality of Life Scale （IBS-QOL） scores were additionally collected from IBS-D patients. Fresh fecal samples were also collected and tested by macro-genome sequencing technology for abundance statistical display， PCoA， Anosim， LEfSe bioinformatic analysis of the annotated gut microbiota structure and function. ResultsThere was no statistically significant difference in the general information of the participants in the three groups （P＞0.05）； the difference in the IBS-SSS and IBS-QOL scores between liver-constraint group and dampness-exuberance group were not statistically significant （P＞0.05）. The study included 28 cases each in liver-constraint group， dampness-exuberance group， and healthy group. The number of specific genes to patients in liver-constraint group was 269 135， with 216 156 in dampness-exuberance group and 249 759 in healthy group， accounting of total 1 784 036 in the three groups. There were differences in the relative abundance distribution of the top ten species of gut microbiota among the three groups， with smaller differences at the phylum， class and order levels， and larger differences at the family， genus and species levels. There were differences in the relative abundance of structure and function of the gut microbiota among the three groups. Species PCoA and Anosim analyses at the species level showed significant differences in the composition of the microbiota among the three groups. Further LEfSe analyses showed that patients in liver-constraint group were screened for 14 dominant strains， of which Clostridium sp. CAG 217， Lachnospira pectinoschiza， Anaerotruncus sp. CAG 528， Paeniclostridium sordellii， Eubecterium sp. CAG 76， Bacillus cereus were affected to a greater extent in abundance differences； dampness-exuberance group screened 24 species of dominant bacteria， of which Roseburia inulinivorans， Eubacterium sp. CAG 251， Roseburia hominis， Unclassified Eubacterium rectale， Roseburia intestinalis， and Megamonas funiformis were affected to a greater extent in abundance differences； no dominant functional genes were screened for patients in liver-constraint group， and dampness-exuberance group was screened for flagellum assembly （ko02040）， porphyrin metabolism （ ko00860）， salmonella infection （ko05132）， and benzoic acid degradation （ko00362）. The differentially dominant functional genes in liver-constraint group and dampness-exuberance group may mainly focus on metabolism （including biodegradation and metabolism of exogenous substances， energy metabolism， lipid metabolism， etc.）. ConclusionIBS-D with syndrome of liver constraint and spleen deficiency is characterized by the enrichment of 14 gut microbiota， such as Clostridium sp. CAG 217， while IBS-D with syndrome of spleen deficiency and dampness exuberance is characterized by the enrichment of 24 gut microbiota， such as Roseburia inulinivorans， and 4 functional enrichments， such as flagellum assembly. Clostridium sp. CAG 217 and Roseburia inulinivorans are expected to be biomarkers for IBS-D patients in the two syndromes， respectively.

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.

Objective:To explore the application effect of"hospital-family integration"transitional care joint case management model in patients with diabetes mellitus.Methods:A total of 80 patients with diabetes mellitus admitted to our hospital from Jan 2023 to Apr 2024 were divided into the control group and the observation group according to random number table method,with 40 patients in each group.The control group was given routine nursing,and the observation group was given"hospital-family integration"transitional care joint case management model based on routine nursing.Blood glucose level,self-care ability and quality of life were compared between the two groups.Results:The levels of fasting blood glucose,2 h postprandial blood glucose and glycosylated hemoglobin in the observation group were lower than those in the control group(P＜0.05).The scores of Self-care Behavior Scale(SDSCA-6)and Health Survey Summary Form(SF-36)in the observation group were higher than those in the control group(P＜0.05).Conclusion:"Hospital-family integration"transitional care joint case management model is helpful to improve blood glucose management,self-care ability and quality of life in patients with diabetes mellitus.

Objective This paper aims to explore patient satisfaction with mobile medical payments in ethnic minority areas and its influencing factors.Methods From May to August 2023,565 ethnic minority patients from 6 villages in 4 ethnic minority autonomous counties in Dehong Prefecture and Pu'er City,Yunnan Province,were selected as research subjects,and 186 Han patients in Kunming were selected as controls.The general information questionnaire,the mobile medical payment will-ingness and attitude survey scale,and the medical cost mobile payment satisfaction survey scale were used to investigate their sat-isfaction with actual situation of medical mobile payment.Additionally,this paper discussed influencing factors affecting satisfac-tion.Results The ethnic minority patients exhibited a significantly lower level of satisfaction compared to the Han patients(39.65±10.43 vs.49.54±7.88,P＜0.05).ethnic minority patients scored significantly lower on the dimensions of satisfac-tion,such as perceived safety,ease of use and usefulness of mobile medical payment compared to the group of Han patients(all P＜0.05).Additionally,they ethnic minority patients showed significantly lower level of willingness and attitude to use mobile medical payment compared to the group of Han patients(P＜0.05).The main factors influencing the significant difference in satisfaction with mobile medical payment were ethnic group,number of hospital visits in previous year,first-time use of mobile medical payment,and educational background(P＜0.05).Conclusion Ethnic minority patients have a low perception of secur-ity,ease of use,and usefulness of mobile medical payments,as well as a low willingness and characteristics for mobile medical payment.Therefore it is necessary to further enhance their experience and satisfaction.In the development of mobile medical pay-ment services hospitals should fully consider the current situation of"illiteracy""semi-illiteracy"and"lack of resources"in re-mote ethnic areas.They should actively develop service platforms and applications suitable for mobile medical payment in ethnic minority areas to continuously enhance service efficiency and quality.

Transbronchil biopsy has the characteristic of less trauma and quick recovery compared to percutaneous aspiration biopsy. In order to automate this procedure, it requires the development of a robotic surgical system that combines electromagnetic navigation and flexible endoscope. The robotic surgical system introduced herein consists of flexible endoscope, remote-control handle, electromagnetic navigation and dexterous manipulators. The robotic system supports lung bronchial model segmentation and reconstruction, automatic bronchial path planning, real-time navigation and visual biopsy. In the control of the endoscopic catheter, an elasticity compensation algorithm was proposed to improve the location accuracy of the catheter and operational efficiency. Clinical trials proved that the robotic system had high positioning accuracy, was intuitive to operate, and could improve the biopsy efficiency, shorten the learning time, reduce the burden of surgical operations, and lower radiation exposure and infection rate.

Objective To investigate the effect of Changyuning prescription on PTEN,TLR2,Caspase-3,Caspase-9 in phosphatidylinositol-3 kinase/protein kinase B(PI3K/AKT)signaling pathway in colon tissue of 2,4,6-trinitrobenzenesulfonic acid(TNBS)-induced ulcerative colitis(UC)rats.Methods After adaptive feeding for 7 days,70 SPF rats were divided into blank group of 10 and modeling group of 60.The rats in the modeling group were given TNBS/ethanol solution enema to induce UC model.The rats that successfully bulit the model were randomly divided into model group,mesalazine group,Changyuning high-dose,medium-dose and low-dose groups,and Changyuning high-dose,medium-dose and low-dose groups,respectively,and the equivalent amount of crude drug was 4 g·mL-1,2 g·mL-1,1 g·mL-1 of Changyuning prescription solution 10 mL·kg-1,the mesalamine group was given 10 mL·kg-1 of mesalamine suspension equivalent to 0.2 g·kg-1 crude drug,the blank control group and model group were given an equal volume of 10 mL·kg-1 of normal saline was given by gavage.The rats in each group were given intragastric administration once a day for 14 consecutive days.Rats were sacrificed after the last administration.Disease activity index was evaluated;colon changes were observed by HE staining;colon tissue damage index was evaluated;The expression of PI3K,AKT,PTEN,TLR2,Caspase-3,and Caspase-9 proteins was detected by Western Blotting in colon tissue.Results Compared with the blank group,the protein expression levels of PI3K,AKT,Caspase-3,Caspase-9 and TLR2 in the model group were increased(P<0.05),and the protein expression level of PTEN was decreased(P<0.05).Compared with the model group,the expression levels of PI3K,AKT,Caspase-3,Caspase-9 and TLR2 proteins in the Changyuning high-dose group were significantly decreased(P<0.05),and the protein expression levels of PTEN were significantly increased(P<0.05);The levels of PI3K,AKT and Caspase-3 in the salazine group and Changyuning medium dose were decreased(P<0.05),the expression level of PTEN protein was increased(P<0.05),and there was no statistical significance in the expression of Caspase-9;There was no statistical significance in the expression of each protein between the Changyuning low-dose group and the model group.Conclusion Changyuning recipe has a significant effect on the treatment of UC,and its mechanism may be related to the regulation of PI3K/AKT signaling pathway and its related proteins PTEN,TLR2,Caspase-3,and Caspase-9,which can effectively relieve the symptoms of UC rats and reduce colon pathological damage.

Objective:To analyze the clinical features and mutation of myeloid differentiation factor 88 (MYD88) L265P in patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) of central nervous system (CNS).Methods:The clinicopathological materials of 45 cases of DLBCL of CNS were retrospectively collected in Xuanwu Hospital, Capital Medical University from September 2014 to February 2017. The clinicopathological data were retrospectively analyzed, combined with immunohistochemistry, EB virus in situ hybridization, imaging and medical history. The mutation of MYD88 L265P gene was detected by pyrosequencing and its clinical significance was analyzed. Results:The age of the patients ranged from 42 to 82 years [(57.6±8.8) years], including 24 males and 21 females. Totally 93.3% (42/45) of the patients had supratentorial tumours, which were single or multiple. The cerebral hemisphere (31/45, 68.9%) was the most common involved site, and 21 cases (21/45, 46.7%) had multiple lesions. Histologically, DLBCL in the CNS showed diffuse infiltration of tumor tissue, some of which grew around blood vessels in a "sleeve" arrangement. CD 20 and CD 79a were diffusely and strongly positive. Thirty-nine cases (39/45, 86.7%) were non-germinal center B cell (non-GCB) subtype and 6 cases (6/45, 13.3%) were germinal center B cell (GCB) subtype. MYD88 L265P mutation was found in 64.4% (29/45) patients. There was statistically significant difference between non-GCB type (71.8%, 28/39) and GCB type DLBCL (1/6, P=0.017). Compared with the operation/biopsy group without chemotherapy, operation+chemotherapy, biopsy+chemotherapy, operation/biopsy+chemotherapy+stem cell transplantation can improve the survival and prognosis ( HR=0.05, 95% CI 0.01-0.33 , P=0.002; HR=0.04, 95% CI 0.01-0.36 , P=0.004; HR=0.01, 95% CI 0.00-0.17 , P=0.001; respectively). Conclusions:DLBCL of the CNS is aggressive tumor with poor prognosis, the clinical manifestations are complex and diverse, and the diagnosis is challenging. MYD88 L265P is a common and specific gene mutation in primary CNS lymphoma(PCNSL), which is of great significance in the diagnosis and treatment of lymphoma. The MYD88 L265P mutation was more frequently detected in non-GCB than GCB subtype. Chemotherapy can improve the survival rate of PCNSL patients. If chemotherapy achieves complete remission and autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is performed, there may be a chance of long-term survival.

Objective:To explore whether botulinum toxin A (BTX-A) can improve the retention rate of fat transplantation in fat breast augmentation.Methods:Each patient was divided into control side and experimental side according to the random number table in 14 patients studied. The experimental group received autologous fat and BTX-A combined transplantation on both sides of the breast, while the control side only received autologous fat transplantation. The fat was added with the same volume of normal saline as BTX-A in the control group. All patients were followed up and the effects of BTX-A were evaluated objectively via the comparison of the remained bilateral fat graft volumes that were obtained through a digital three-dimensional reconstructions technique. Moreover, the improvement of each breast appearance and complication were assessed by the physician and patients who were blinded to the recipient treatment assignment.Results:The outcome of the fat breast augmentation was evident for both groups at the follow-up with no evidence of fat embolism, vascular/nervous injury, infection and prolonged bruising. In one of the 14 patients (control group), fat liquefaction necrosis occurred in one side of the breast; after active treatment, it returned to normal, and three patients had different degrees of mass. The analysis on the three-dimensional reconstruction data and the assessments from both the physicians and patients showed significant differences in the fat graft retention volume between the BTX-A group (51.10±20.56)% and the control group (33.06±14.77)%. Nevertheless, there was no significant difference in the incidence of complications between the two sides.Conclusions:Autogenous fat breast augmentation is safe and effective. This study result has shown that BTX-A can significantly improve the retention rate of fat transplantation but cannot reduce the incidence of complications.

Objective:To analyze the clinicopathological features and probable mechanisms of high-grade gliomas with H3 G34R mutation.Methods:Five cases of high-grade gliomas with H3 G34R mutation were collected at Xuanwu Hospital, Capital Medical University, Beijing, China, from 2016 to 2019. The clinical and pathological data for each case was retrospectively reviewed.Results:The 5 patients (2 males and 3 females) aged from 15 to 45 years (mean 23 years), and had a history of headache or motor weakness. Four of them were younger than 20 years of age. Magnetic resonance imaging showed that the lesions of 3 cases were seen separately in frontal lobe, parietal lobe or temporal lobe, 1 case involved both frontal lobe and parietal lobe, and otherwise multiple lobes were involved in 1 case. Contrast enhancement could be observed in 2 cases. Pathological examination showed that glioblastoma was the most common entity, with or without primitive neuronal component. All 5 cases showed that H3 G34R was diffusely positive in tumor nuclei with ATRX loss. Moreover, p53 was overexpressed in 4 cases. None of them showed Olig2 expression. Two patients showed disease progression after surgery at 18 months and 24 months, respectively. The latter of the two deceased 3 months after tumor progression.Conclusions:The clinicopathological and molecular genetics features of high-grade gliomas with H3 G34R mutation have relatively similar clinicopathological and genetic features, and more commonly seen in young adults (vs. older adults). Thus, these tumors may be discussed further as a distinct tumor entity.

From January 2014 to June 2018, 28 patients with different types of deep soft tissue injury or infection were admitted to the Affiliated Jiangyin Hospital of Medical College of Southeast University; 5 patients were admitted to the Zhengzhou First People′s Hospital. There were 24 males and 9 females, aged 18-89 (40±20) years. Disposable suction tubes with holes cut on side walls were used as self-made drainage tubes. The authors placed the self-made drainage tubes on different deep soft tissue layers and wound surfaces after debridement. The effective drainage sections of the wound surface drainage tubes were wrapped with silver ion antimicrobial functional active dressings. Bio-permeable membrane was used to close the operative area. The drainage tubes in the deep layer of wound and wound surface were connected in parallel by a tee and connected to wall-hanging medical negative-pressure suction device to conduct negative-pressure wound treatment at -20.0 to -10.6 kPa. The deep drainage tubes were usually removed or changed 4 or 5 days after surgery.The drainage tubes in the wound surface were synchronously replaced when removing or replacing he drainage tubes in the deep layer of wound. On 4 to 15 days after surgery, the deep drainage tubes were removed. On 8 to 25 days after surgery, the wound surface drainage tubes were removed. Then the treatment was changed to a conventional dressing change until the wounds were completely healed or the wound bed was ready for skin grafts or tissue flaps. The indwelling time of deep drainage tubes in this group of patients was (6.2±2.8) days, and the indwelling time of wound surface drainage tubes was (12.0±3.0) days. The wound healing time was (22±5) days, the hospital stay time was (29±7) days, and wound bacteria were reduced from 6 species and 11 strains before treatment to 3 species and 4 strains after treatment. No adverse events such as wound bleeding, irritative pain, and chronic sinus occurred during treatment. Twenty-three patients were followed up for 13 to 28 months, no treatment-related complications were observed.
