Patients with alcoholic cirrhosis often experience varying degrees of malnutrition， and the patients with malnutrition are more susceptible to complications such as infections and ascites， which may lead to a poor prognosis. Therefore， it is particularly important to conduct nutritional risk screening for patients in clinical practice， and appropriate nutritional assessment tools should be used to evaluate the nutritional status of patients and develop individualized nutritional supplementation regimens， thereby promoting disease recovery and improving prognosis and quality of life. This article elaborates on the specific methods for nutritional screening， assessment， and management in patients with alcoholic cirrhosis and points out that systematic nutritional screening and assessment can help to identify the patients with malnutrition in the early stage and provide timely intervention. Individualized nutritional supplementation regimens should be adjusted based on the conditions of patients， so as to meet their nutritional needs， promote the recovery of liver function， improve overall health status， and enhance long-term quality of life.

Objective To discusse the application effects of the informatization of the review center and the homogeneity of pharmacists on the rationality of emergency department prescriptions.Methods Based on the system rules of the rational drug use management system and manually set custom rules,the changes in pharmacist's review quality,efficiency homogeneity,and prescription rationality were compared before(February 2023 to July 2023)and after(August 2023 to January 2024)the construction of the review center,according to the informatization and process standardization management.Results After the establishment of the review center,analysis of variance showed that the approval rate of pharmacist's review significantly increased compared to before the establishment of the review center(P＜0.05),while the average time consumption increased significantly(P＜0.01).The average review time,average approval time,and average review return time have been extended from(4.50±0.58),(4.50±0.58),and(4.75±0.96)s to(11.67±1.03),(8.50±0.55)and(13.17±0.98)s,respectively.The trend chi-square test showed that the irrationality rate of emergency department prescriptions decreased monthly from 6.27％in August 2023 to 0.93％in January 2024(P＜0.01).Correlation analysis between the number of intervention system rules since the establishment of the review center and the irrationality rate of emergency department prescriptions revealed a significant correlation(P=0.004 4).Conclusions By utilizing the platform of the review center,establishing dedicated review pharmacists and an information pharmacist team,and implementing informatization and standardized management processes,it can contribute to improving the quality and efficiency of prescription review,increasing the qualification rate of prescriptions,ensuring rational drug use,and enhancing the management level and medical quality of hospitals.

Ulcerative colitis(UC)is a chronic autoimmune disease characterized primarily by impaired intestinal mucosal barrier function.Beneficial bacteria in the intestinal flora are crucial for maintaining intestinal function.Therefore,eliminating harmful bacteria,promoting the regeneration of beneficial bacteria,and reconstructing the intestinal mucosal barrier have become key strategies in the treatment of UC.The traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)"Houchang Theory"elucidates the mech-anism of ulcer formation from the perspective of the"Zhimo"(lipid membrane)structure and a-chieves the purpose of treating UC by thickening the"Zhimo"through syndrome differentiation and treatment.This theory is consistent with the modern medical concept of reconstructing the intestinal mucosal barrier.Fecal microbiota transplantation(FMT),as a transformed product of TCM"Jinzhi"(liquid feces),has been proven to have significant efficacy in the treatment of UC.Based on the TCM"Houchang Theory"and from the perspective of the intestinal mucosal barrier,this article explored the mechanism of"Jinzhi"FMT in the treatment of UC and provides new strategies for clinical treatment.

Objective:To investigate the impact of donor age on early postoperative liver function recovery in liver transplant recipients, as well as the incidence and risk factors for arterial complications following liver transplantation.Methods:A total of 518 patients who underwent liver transplantation at the Organ Transplantation Center of the Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University between January 2021 and January 2024 were included in the study. Based on donor age, patients were classified into the elderly donor group (≥70 years, n=28) and the non-elderly donor group (<70 years, n=490). Liver function indicators—including aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), total bilirubin (TBIL), and direct bilirubin (DBIL)—were measured on postoperative days 1, 3, 7, and 14. The incidence of arterial complications, including hepatic artery thrombosis and hepatic artery stenosis, was recorded. Recipients were further categorized into the arterial complication group (n=26) and the non-arterial complication group (n=492) based on postoperative outcomes, and clinical characteristics of donors and recipients were compared. Binary logistic regression analysis was conducted to identify risk factors for arterial complications.Rusults:No significant differences were observed in baseline characteristics between the elderly and non-elderly donor groups ( P>0.05). However, the elderly donor group exhibited significantly higher AST, ALT, TBIL, and DBIL levels at all postoperative time points compared to the non-elderly donor group (all P<0.05). Specifically, on postoperative day 1, AST and ALT levels were (1,024.57±256.49) U/L and (756.24±145.89) U/L in the elderly donor group, compared to (895.23±225.19) U/L and (614.85±126.51) U/L in the non-elderly donor group. On day 3, AST and ALT levels were (402.46±71.61) U/L and (423.31±87.44) U/L versus (226.37±66.54) U/L and (256.79±70.25) U/L, respectively. On day 7, AST and ALT levels were (91.78±21.84) U/L and (92.36±21.62) U/L versus (68.41±18.38) U/L and (77.47±18.16) U/L. By day 14, AST and ALT levels were (67.52±10.35) U/L and (72.17±16.28) U/L versus (35.32±9.27) U/L and (48.56±14.10) U/L, respectively ( P<0.05 for all comparisons). For bilirubin indicators, TBIL and DBIL levels in the elderly donor group were also consistently higher than in the non-elderly donor group. On day 1, TBIL and DBIL were (95.76±21.93) μmol/L and (64.22±15.07) μmol/L, compared to (77.59±20.48) μmol/L and (51.18±12.96) μmol/L. By day 14, TBIL and DBIL levels had decreased to (41.26±8.30) μmol/L and (32.45±6.21) μmol/L, compared to (28.39±7.15) μmol/L and (20.58±5.04) μmol/L in the non-elderly donor group ( P<0.05 for all comparisons). The incidence of hepatic artery complications was 10.71% (3/28) in the elderly donor group and 4.69% (23/490) in the non-elderly donor group, with no statistically significant difference between the two groups ( P>0.05). Statistical analysis employing independent t-tests and χ2 tests demonstrated significant differences between the arterial complication group and non-arterial complication group in donor quality ratio ( P<0.05) and incidence of hepatic arterial hypoperfusion ( P<0.05). Multivariate binary logistic regression analysis, after adjusting for confounding factors (e.g., recipient gender, age, body mass index [BMI], primary disease, and donor-recipient blood type compatibility), identified recipient-to-donor mass ratio ( OR=1.352, P<0.05) and insufficient hepatic arterial blood flow ( OR=1.497, P<0.05) as independent risk factors for arterial complications following liver transplantation. Conclusion:Elderly liver donors can have a certain impact on early postoperative liver function recovery in liver transplant recipients, but have no significant impact on the occurrence of arterial complications after liver transplantation. The mass ratio of recipients to donors and insufficient hepatic arterial blood flow are independent risk factors for arterial complications after liver transplantation.

The mass ratio of recipients to donors and insufficient hepatic arterial blood flow are independent risk factors for arterial complications after liver transplantation.

Objective To analyze the changes in the ratio of helper T cell 17 to regulatory T cells (Th17/Treg), serum ferritin (SF), microRNA-145 (miR-145), and microRNA-132 (miR-132) levels in breast cancer patients and their relationships with pathological parameters. Methods A total of 92 breast cancer patients from January 2022 to December 2023 were enrolled as study group, and 105 patients with benign breast diseases during the same period were selected as control group. Changes in SF, miR-132, Th17/Treg, and miR-145 were compared between the two groups, and the diagnostic value of these indicators for breast cancer was analyzed. Results Compared with the control group, the study group had higher peripheral blood Th17/Treg and serum SF levels, and lower serum miR-145 and miR-132 expression levels (P < 0.05). Patients with tumor diameters >2 cm, clinical stages of Ⅲ to Ⅳ, moderately or poorly differentiated tumors, and lymph node metastasis had lower serum miR-145 and miR-132 expression levels than those with tumor diameters ≤2 cm, clinical stages of Ⅰ to Ⅱ, highly differentiated tumor, and no lymph node metastasis (P < 0.05). Compared with patients with clinical stages of Ⅰ to Ⅱ, highly differentiated tumors, and no lymph node metastasis, those with clinical stages of Ⅲ to Ⅳ, moderately or poorly differentiated tumors, and lymph node metastasis had higher serum SF levels (P < 0.05). Patients with lymph node metastasis had higher Th17/Treg levels than those without (P < 0.05). The area under the curve (AUC) for combined detection of Th17/Treg, SF, miR-145, and miR-132 levels in breast cancer patients was higher than that for individual detection (P < 0.05), with higher sensitivity and specificity. Conclusion Th17/Treg, SF, miR-145, and miR-132 are abnormally expressed in the blood of breast cancer patients and are correlated with their pathological parameters. Combined detection of these four indicators has higher value in the clinical diagnosis of breast cancer.

Objective:To explore the efficacy and safety of tislelizumab combined with zanubrutinib in the treatment of refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL).Methods:A prospective observational study was conducted. A total of 10 patients with refractory DLBCL admitted to Beijing Chaoyang District Third Ring Cancer Hospital, a specialist medical consortium of Cancer Hospital Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences from November 2020 to February 2023 were prospectively collected. All the 10 refractory DLBCL patients at least received first-line systemic therapy containing rituximab; and they were given tislelizumab 200 mg, intravenous infusion, on day 1 and zanubrutinib 160 mg, orally, twice a day, day 1-day 21, with 21 days as 1 cycle; 6 patients received second-line therapy and 4 patients received ≥ third-line therapy. Subsequent regimens were added with rituximab (375 mg/m 2, intravenous infusion on day 1). The primary endpoint will be reached 12 months after enrollment if there was no disease progression or other events that were scheduled to withdraw from the study. The therapeutic efficacy was summarized at the end of the follow-up in March 2023. Kaplan-Meier method was used to make survival analysis and the adverse reactions were summed up. Results:There were 6 males and 4 females, all at stage Ⅲ-Ⅳ; and age [ M ( Q1, Q3)] was 55 years (50 years, 69 years). All 10 patients completed 90 cycles of treatment with tislelizumab and zanubrutinib, with the cycle number of 8 cycles (2 cycles, 24 cycles). The follow-up time was 19 months (11 months, 28 months); 4 cases achieved complete remission, 3 cases achieved partial remission and 1 case had the stable disease. The progression-free survival was 8.5 months (1.3 months, 27.0 months); the median remission duration time and median overall survival time were not reached. Treatment-related adverse reactions included 2 cases of neutropenia, 1 case of anemia, and 1 case of elevated alanine aminotransferase and aspartate aminotransferase, all of which were grade 1-2. Conclusions:Tislelizumab combined with zanubrutinib has good clinical efficacy and safety in the treatment of refractory DLBCL.

Objective:To observe the effect of Nodal on the biological behavior of retinal vascular endothelial cells (RF/6A cells) in monkeys with high glucose.Methods:RF/6A cells were divided into normal group, mannitol group, high glucose group, high glucose combined with non-specific small interfering RNA treatment group (HG+NC group), high glucose combined with small interfering Nodal treatment group (HG+siNodal group). The transfection efficiency of siNodal was observed by real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR and western blot protein immunoblotting. The effect of Nodal on the proliferation of RF/6A cells was detected by thiazole blue colorimetry. The effect of Nodal on migration ability of RF/6A cells was detected by cell scratch assay. The effect of Nodal on the formation of RF/6A cell lumen was measured by Matrigel three-dimensional in vitro. The expression of extracellular signal phosphorylated regulated kinase 1/2 (pERK1/2) in RF/6A cells was detected by western blot protein immunoblotting. One-way analysis of variance was used to compare groups.Results:Compared with HG+NC group, Nodal protein ( F=33.469) and mRNA relative expression levels ( F=38.191) in HG+siNodal group were significantly decreased, cell proliferation was significantly decreased ( F=28.548), and cell migration ability was significantly decreased ( F=24.182). The number of cell lumen formation was significantly decreased ( F=52.643), and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). Compared with HG+NC group, the relative expression of pERK1/2 protein in HG+siNodal group was significantly decreased, and the difference was statistically significant ( F=44.462, P<0.01). Conclusions:Silencing Nodal expression can inhibit proliferation, migration and tube formation of RF/6A cells induced by high glucose. It may act by inhibiting pERK1/2 expression.
