Mycophenolic acid (MPA), the active moiety of both mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) and enteric-coated mycophenolate sodium (EC-MPS), serves as a primary immunosuppressant for maintaining solid organ transplants. Therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) enhances treatment outcomes through tailored approaches. This study aimed to develop an evidence-based guideline for MPA TDM, facilitating its rational application in clinical settings. The guideline plan was drawn from the Institute of Medicine and World Health Organization (WHO) guidelines. Using the Delphi method, clinical questions and outcome indicators were generated. Systematic reviews, Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation (GRADE) evidence quality evaluations, expert opinions, and patient values guided evidence-based suggestions for the guideline. External reviews further refined the recommendations. The guideline for the TDM of MPA (IPGRP-2020CN099) consists of four sections and 16 recommendations encompassing target populations, monitoring strategies, dosage regimens, and influencing factors. High-risk populations, timing of TDM, area under the curve (AUC) versus trough concentration (C₀), target concentration ranges, monitoring frequency, and analytical methods are addressed. Formulation-specific recommendations, initial dosage regimens, populations with unique considerations, pharmacokinetic-informed dosing, body weight factors, pharmacogenetics, and drug‍-‍drug interactions are covered. The evidence-based guideline offers a comprehensive recommendation for solid organ transplant recipients undergoing MPA therapy, promoting standardization of MPA TDM, and enhancing treatment efficacy and safety.

Objective To investigate the effects of intraoperative intravenous administration of dexmedetomidine(DEX)on the recovery quality of donors undergoing pure laparoscopic donor hepatectomy.Methods A total of 56 liver donors who were going to undergo scheduled pure laparoscopic donor hepatectomy were enrolled and randomly assigned to two groups,a DEX group(n=28)and a control group(n=28).Donors in the DEX group received DEX infusion at a dose of 1 μg/kg over 15 minutes through a continuous pump,which was followed by DEX at 0.4 μg/(kg·h)until the disconnection of the portal branch.Donors in the control group were given an equal volume of 0.9% normal saline at the same infusion rate and over the same period of time as those of the dex infusion in the DEX group.The primary outcome was the incidence of emergence agitation(EA).The Aono's Four-point Scale(AFPS)score was used to assess EA.The secondary observation indicators included intraoperative anesthesia and surgery conditions,spontaneous respiration recovery time,recovery time,extubation time,scores for the Ramsay Sedation Scale,the incidence of chills,numeric rating scale(NRS)score for pain,and blood pressure and heart rate after extubation.Results The incidence of EA was 10.7% and 39.3% in the DEX group and the control group,respectively,and the incidence of EA was significantly lower in the DEX group than that in the control group(P=0.014).The APFS scores after extubation in the DEX group were lower than those in the control group(1[1,1]vs.2[1,3],P=0.005).Compared to the control group,the dosages of intraoperative propofol and remifentanil were significantly reduced in the DEX group(P<0.05).During the recovery period,the number of donors requiring additional boluses of analgesia,the blood pressure,and the heart rate were all lower in the DEX group than those in the control group(P<0.05).No significant differences between the two groups were observed in the spontaneous respiration recovery time,recovery time,extubation time,the incidence of chills,NRS score,scores for the Ramsay Sedation Scale,and the length-of-stay in postanesthesia care unit(PACU)(P>0.05).Conclusion DEX can reduce the incidence of EA after pure laparoscopic donor hepatectomy and improve the quality of recovery without prolonging postoperative recovery time or extubation time.

Hip fracture is considered as the most severe osteoporotic fracture characterized by high disability and mortality in the elderly. Improved surgical techniques and multidisciplinary team play an active role in alleviating prognosis, which places higher demands on perioperative nursing. Dysfunction, complications, and secondary impact of anaesthesia and surgery add more difficulties to clinical nursing. Besides, there still lack clinical practices in perioperative nursing for elderly patients with hip fracture in China. In this context, led by the Orthopedic Nursing Committee of Chinese Nursing Association, the Expert consensus on clinical practice in perioperative nursing for elderly patients with hip fracture ( version 2023) is developed based on the evidence-based medicine. This consensus provides 11 recommendations on elderly patients with hip fracture from aspects of perioperative health education, condition monitoring and inspection, complication risk assessment and prevention, and rehabilitation, in order to provide guiding advices for clinical practice, improve the quality of nursing and ameliorate the prognosis of elderly patients with hip fracture.

Objective To investigate the difference of matrix stiffness in different regions of tibial plateau in osteoarthritis (OA) and its effects on morphology of the cartilage and mitochondria. Methods The tibial plateau cartilage specimens of OA were obtained for nanoindentation test, transmission electron microscopy and histological analysis. The stiffness of cartilage matrix in different regions of OA tibial plateau was detected by nano-indentation. The morphology of cartilage mitochondria in different regions was observed by transmission electron microscopy, and the changes of mitochondrial plane area, shape and ridge volume density were quantitatively analyzed. Cartilage injury in different regions of OA tibial plateau was observed by histological staining. Results The cartilage of OA tibial plateau showed regional heterogeneity, and the cartilage and mitochondria on medial side of varus knee OA were more severe, and the matrix stiffness was higher. The OA scores were positively correlated with matrix stiffness. There was also a significant correlation between OA scores and mitochondrial morphology: the higher OA scores, the larger and rounder mitochondrial plane area, and the lower cristae volume density. Conclusions The differences of tibial plateau revealed the correlation between cartilage matrix stiffness, OA scores and mitochondrial morphological parameters. The increased cartilage matrix stiffness may be the main cause of chondrocyte mitochondrial injury, and further aggravate the progression of OA.

Objective : To explore the regulatory role of microRNA⁃455 ⁃3p ( miR⁃455 ⁃3p) in lymphangiogenesis of rat silicosis model , and to investigate the effect of miR⁃455 ⁃3p targeted regulation of vascular endothelial growth factor C (VEGF⁃C) on the tubular structure formation of human lymphatic endothelial cells ( HLECs) . Methods: The rats were randomly divided into the silicosis model group and the normal control group. The silicosis model group were injected with silicon dioxide (SiO2 )dust suspension , and the control group was injected with the same amount of normal saline. HE , Masson and immunohistochemistry staining were used to observe the pathological changes and lymphangiogenesis of lung tissue. The expression levels of miR⁃455 ⁃3p and VEGF⁃C in lung tissues of rats were detected by Quantitative real⁃time PCR ( RT⁃qPCR) and Western blot; The miR⁃455 ⁃3p inhibitors and negative controls ( NC) were transfected into HLECs , and the expression levels of miR⁃455 ⁃3p and VEGF⁃C in cells were detected by RT⁃qPCR and Western blot. The migration ability of HLECs was detected by scratch test , the ability of tubular structure formation was detected by matrigel tube formation test , and dual luciferase experiments were used to verify the targeting relationship between miR⁃455 ⁃3p and VEGF⁃C. Results : Compared with the normal control group , in the silicosis model group , a large number of inflammatory cells gathered and collagen gradually deposited in the pulmonary interstitium , and there was lymphatic hyperplasia in the lung. The expression of miR⁃455 ⁃3p in the lung tissue was lower than that in the control group , and the expression of VEGF⁃C was higher than that in the control group ; After transfection with HLECs , compared with the NC group , the expression of miR⁃455 ⁃3p in the cells of the Inhibitors group decreased , the expression of VEGF⁃C increased , and the ability of cell migration and tubular structure formation increased(P < 0. 05) ; VEGF⁃C was confirmed as a target gene of miR⁃455 ⁃3p by the dual luciferase experiments.

Abstract: To explore the influence of pulmonary lymphatic circulation disorder on the pathogenesis of silicosis. Methods: A pulmonary lymphatic circulation disorder model was established by thoracic duct ligation. Twenty-four SPF adult male SD rats were randomly divided into control group, ligation control group, silicosis group and silicosis + ligation thoracic catheter group(hereinafter referred to as silicosis + ligation group) with 6 rats in each group. The control group was left untreated; the rats in the ligation control group were fed with thoracic duct ligation and the rats were fed normally; the rats in the silicosis group were established a silicosis model using dynamic dusting method(the concentration of SiO2dust in the dusting chamber was 2 000 mg/m3, and the rats were given dynamic dusting for 3 hours per day); the rats in the silicosis + ligation group were first surgically ligated to the rat thoracic duct, and then subjected to dynamic dust staining. The conditions for staining were the same as those in the silicosis group. HE staining was used to observe lung tissue pathological changes; Sirius scarlet staining was used to observe collagen Deposition; immunohistochemical observation of pulmonary lymphatic hyperplasia;Western blot was used to detect nuclear factor-κBp65(NF-κBp65), vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-3(VEGFR-3) and α-smooth muscle actin（α-SMA）in rat lung tissue. Results: The results of HE and Sirius scarlet staining showed that the lung tissue lesions of the silicosis group and the silicosis + ligation group were more severe compared with the control group. The results of immunohistochemistry showed that there was lymphatic hyperplasia in the lung tissue of the rats in the silicosis group and the silicosis + ligation group. Western blot showed that the protein content of NF-κBp65 and α-SMA in lung tissues were higher in the silicosis + ligation group than that of the silicosis group(2.42±0.05)vs(1.80±0.01),(2.81±0.06)vs(2.57±0.01), respectively. On the contrary, the content of VEGFR-3 in the lung tissue of rats in the silicosis + ligation group was lower than that of the silicosis group(0.87±0.01)vs(0.97±0.03). Conclusion Ligation of the thoracic duct can cause lymphatic circulatory disorders in the lungs of silicosis rats and accelerate the onset of silicosis.
