Type 2 diabetes mellitus is a metabol-ic disease characterized by high blood sugar levels.Traditionally,amino acids are primarily viewed as the basic building blocks for proteins and peptide synthesis.However,in recent years,amino acids have gained increased attention as signaling mole-cules that play crucial roles in the maintenance and regulation of metabolic homeostasis.It has been found that there is a close correlation between the metabolism of branched-chain and/or aromatic amino acids and the occurrence or development of type 2 diabetes mellitus.Furthermore,there have been successive reports on the regulation mecha-nism involved.This article will focus on the meta-bolic processes,mechanisms and clinical value of branched-chain and aromatic amino acids in type 2 diabetes mellitus.It will also summarize and pro-vide an outlook on the current state of amino acid metabolism in the treatment of diabetes mellitus,with the aim of offering new ideas for the treat-ment of type 2 diabetes mellitus.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the establishment and promotion of a new standardized management model for anti-osteoporosis medication after fragility fracture surgery by resident clinical pharmacists,and provide references for resident pharmacists to carry out clinical pharmaceutical services.METHODS From July 2023 to March 2024,595 post-brittle fracture surgery patients were enrolled.Using the PDCA(plan-do-check-act)cycle,resident clinical pharmacists identified issues and conducted investigations in clinical practice.Through integrating clinical pharmacist intervention services before,during and after treatment,a medication treatment pathway was developed,thereby establishing a standardized management model for anti-osteoporosis treatment following fragility fracture surgery.Leveraging the National Brittle Fracture Big Data Platform(under the National Clinical Research Center for Orthopedics and Sports Rehabilitation),a dedicated data module was constructed,providing big data support to evaluate the efficacy of this pharmaceutical care model.RESULTS Continuous PDCA cycle driven improvements significantly increased the proportion of osteoporosis diagnosis(from 9%before intervention to 81%)and proportion of drug treatment(from 4%to 75%).The proportions of bone density and bone metabolism testing also rose markedly,positively impacting long-term patient outcomes.CONCLUSIONS The establishment of a standardized management model for anti-osteoporosis treatment following fragility fracture surgery by resident clinical pharmacists has enhanced clinicians'diagnostic and therapeutic capabilities for osteoporosis,ensures rational medication use in osteoporosis patients,and demonstrates significant potential for widespread adoption and application.

Objective To investigate the effects of sample transport and sorting system on the detection results of common clinical bio-chemical and immunological items carried out in our laboratory.Methods A total of 25 patients admitted to Zidong Hospital of Jiangsu Provincial Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine in June 2024 were included in this study,and four blood samples were collected from each patients using vacuum blood vessels with separation gel containing coagulant.These samples were transferred to the laboratory department through manual transport or pneumatic logistics transmission,and the manual sorting approach or intelligent blood vessel sorting system was used to encode the samples.The effects of different sample transportation methods and sorting methods on the detec-tion results of 46 clinical biochemical parameters,12 tumor markers and 5 thyroid hormone items,which were carried out in our labora-tory,were analyzed and compared.Results No significant change on hemolytic index(HI)was found through pneumatic tube system(PTS)and intelligent blood vessel sorting system(P＞0.05).The results of AST,CK-MB,α-HBDH,and LDH in clinical biochemical parameters following PTS were significantly different from those in artificial transport group(all P＜0.05).Both the results of Cyfra21-1 and NSE in immunological items in the samples after PTS transport were significantly different from those obtained by either manual transport or intelligent sorting system,with statistical significance(all P＜0.05).Conclusion PTS basically meets the requirements of clinical laboratories,but it can lead to the increase of AST,CK-MB,α-HBDH and LDH in clinical biochemistry,as well as Cyfra21-1 and NSE in immunology,which needs to be further improved,refined,and validated in order to meet the clinical requirements.

Objective:To conduct a Meta-synthesis on the characteristics of symptom help-seeking behavior in adult cancer patients, so as to provide evidence-based guidance for early intervention of symptom help-seeking behavior in cancer patients in China.Methods:Qualitative studies on symptom help-seeking behavioral characteristics of cancer patients were systematically searched in PubMed, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, ProQuest, Nature, ScienceDirect, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, WanFang Data, China Biology Medicine disc, and VIP. The search period was from database establishment to December 31, 2024. Included literature was independently evaluated using the Australian Joanna Briggs Institute Center for Evidence-Based Health Care Quality Assessment Criteria for Qualitative Research. The results were integrated through the Meta-synthesis method.Results:A total of 15 papers were included, and 30 findings were distilled and grouped into nine categories, resulting in three integrated findings of low symptom perception and interpretation bias, coping styles of symptom disclosure, and factors influencing symptom help-seeking behaviors.Conclusions:Symptom help-seeking behaviors of cancer patients are influenced by a variety of factors, and understanding their behavioral characteristics is useful in informing the development of intervention strategies.

Objective:To describe the prevalence of myopia and pre-myopia among preschool children aged 5-6 years in ten provinces or municipalities(hereinafter referred to as province)of China,and to provide a reference for the prevention and control of myopia,and the allocation of related health re-sources.Methods:Convenience sampling was used to select preschool children aged 5-6 years from 21 cities in 10 provinces(including 8 provinces and 2 municipalities)in China.Cycloplegic autorefraction was conducted.The distribution of myopia and pre-myopia was described using frequencies and percenta-ges.The Chi-square test was used to compare the differences in the prevalence of myopia and pre-myopia between regions with different varying economic development levels and between boys and girls,with a significance level of α=0.05.Results:A total of 12 926 preschool children aged 5-6 years were sur-veyed.The myopia prevalence was 5.5％,and the overall prevalence of myopia and pre-myopia was 43.4％.Boys had higher rates of myopia and overall prevalence of myopia and pre-myopia than girls(5.7％vs.5.2％,46.4％vs.40.1％),though the difference in myopia prevalence was not statistical-ly significant.Stratified analysis by the province,there was no statistically significant differences in the prevalence of myopia between boys and girls in any province(P＞0.05),but in 8 provinces,the preva-lence of myopia in boys was slightly higher than in girls.The overall prevalence of myopia and pre-myopia in boys was higher than in girls across all the 10 provinces,with 5 provinces showing statistically signifi-cant differences(P＜0.05).The investigated areas were divided into two categories,relatively more-developed areas and relatively less-developed areas,based on per capita gross domestic product(GDP).In 6 provinces,there was no statistically significant difference in the prevalence of myopia between the two categories of areas.In 2 provinces,the prevalence was higher in relatively more-developed areas,and in 2 provinces,it was higher in relatively less-developed areas.In 4 provinces,there was no statisti-cally significant difference in the overall prevalence of myopia and pre-myopia between the two categories of areas with relatively more-developed and relatively less-developed areas.In 3 provinces,the preva-lence was higher in relatively more-developed areas,and in 3 provinces,it was higher in relatively less-developed areas.Conclusion:The prevalence of myopia and pre-myopia among preschool children aged 5-6 years is relatively high.Boys show higher overall prevalence of myopia and pre-myopia than girls,but there is no significant difference in the prevalence of myopia.There is no consistent association be-tween the level of economic development and the incidence of myopia and pre-myopia in each province.

ObjectiveTo evaluate pharmacological effects of Shengmai injection（SMI）on cerebral ischemia and study its neuroprotective mechanism. MethodsMale specific pathogen-free （SPF） Sprague-Dawley （SD） rats were randomly divided into a sham group， a model group， a low-dose SMI group（3 mL·kg^-1）， a middle-dose SMI group（6 mL·kg^-1）， a high-dose SMI group（12 mL·kg^-1）， and a Ginaton group（4 mL·kg^-1）according to the random number table method， with 12 rats in each group. The rat model of cerebral ischemia-reperfusion（MCAO/R）was prepared via the suture method. The administration groups were intraperitoneally injected with corresponding concentrations of SMI or Ginaton injection after reperfusion， which was conducted for 3 consecutive days. The sham group and model group were administered the equivalent volume of physiological saline. The pharmacological effects of SMI on brain injury in MCAO/R rats were evaluated by neurological function scores， cerebral infarction area， hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining， Nissl staining， terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase dUTP nick-end labeling （TUNEL） staining， and Western blot. The dominant link and key protein of SMI treating cerebral injury were explored using proteomic analysis. The related mechanisms of SMI were further validated using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA）， Western blot， and chloride ion fluorescence probe with oxygen-glucose deprivation/reoxygenation（OGD/R）-treated PC12 cells and MCAO/R rats. ResultsCompared with the sham group， the model group showed significantly increased neurological function scores， cerebral infarction area， neuronal apoptosis rate， and expression levels of apoptosis related proteins （P<0.05， P<0.01）and significantly decreased density of Nissl bodies and neurons（P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， the SMI groups exhibited significantly decreased neurological function scores， cerebral infarction area， neuronal apoptosis rate， and expression levels of apoptosis related proteins （P<0.05， P<0.01）and significantly increased density of Nissl bodies and neurons （P<0.05）. The proteomic analysis results showed that oxidative stress and inflammatory response were important processes of SMI intervening in MCAO/R injury， and the chloride intracellular channel protein 1 （CLIC1） was one of key proteins in its action network. The levels of representative indicators of oxidative stress and inflammatory response in the MCAO/R rats of the SMI groups were significantly reduced， compared with those in the model group（P<0.05， P<0.01）， and the expression levels of CLIC1 and downstream NOD-like receptor protein 3 （NLRP3） decreased （P<0.01）. In addition， the experimental results based on the OGD/R PC12 cells showed that SMI significantly increased the cell survival rate（P<0.01） and significantly decreased the intracellular chloride ion concentration（P<0.05）. ConclusionSMI has neuroprotective effects. Oxidative stress and inflammatory response are key processes of SMI intervening in MCAO/R injury. The potential mechanism is closely related to the regulation of CLIC1.
