ObjectiveTo investigate the molecular mechanism by which the Bushen Kaixuan Tongluo prescription exerts a renal protective effect in mice with diabetic kidney disease （DKD） by regulating the cyclic adenosine monophosphate （cAMP） signaling pathway. MethodsThirty specific pathogen-free （SPF） male db/db mice were adaptively fed for three weeks. Mice with a random tail vein blood glucose level ≥ 11.1 mmol·L^-1 and urinary albumin-creatinine ratio （ACR） ≥ 30 mg·g^-1 were considered successfully modeled. The successfully modeled mice were randomly divided into five groups with six mice in each group： the model group， the low-， medium-， and high-dose Bushen Kaixuan Tongluo prescription groups （administered at doses of 7， 14， 28 g·kg^-1·d^-1 respectively）， and the positive drug irbesartan group （administered at a dose of 20 mg·kg^-1·d^-1）. Additionally， six db/m mice were selected as the blank group. Mice in each group were given intragastric administration of the Bushen Kaixuan Tongluo prescription at the corresponding concentrations， irbesartan， or an equal volume of pure water， and the intervention lasted for 12 weeks. During the experiment， the general conditions， body weight changes， and renal function indicators of the mice were dynamically monitored. After the intervention， a blood glucose meter was used to measure the fasting blood glucose （FBG） of the mice. An automatic biochemical analyzer was employed to detect the levels of serum creatinine （SCr）， blood urea nitrogen （BUN）， urinary microalbumin （uALB）， ACR， aspartate aminotransferase （AST）， alanine aminotransferase （ALT）， total cholesterol （TC）， triglycerides （TG）， leptin （LEP）， glycosylated serum protein （GSP）， and insulin （INS） in the mice. Renal tissues were collected for hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining， periodic acid-Schiff （PAS） staining， and Masson's trichrome staining to observe the histopathological changes. Immunohistochemistry （IHC） was used to detect the expressions of protein kinase A （PKA） and cAMP response element-binding protein （CREB） in the mice. Western blot analysis was performed to determine the expression levels of PKA， phosphorylated protein kinase A （p-PKA）， CREB， phosphorylated cAMP response element-binding protein （p-CREB）， and B-cell lymphoma-2 （Bcl-2） proteins in the renal tissues of the mice. Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction （Real-time PCR） was used to detect the mRNA expression levels of PKA， CREB， and Bcl-2 in the renal tissues of the mice. ResultsCompared with the blank group， the mice in the model group showed listlessness， decreased activity， and a significant increase in body weight （P<0.01）. Biochemical indicators revealed that the levels of BUN， uALB， ACR， AST， ALT， TC， TG， FBG， LEP， GSP， and INS were significantly increased （P<0.01）， while SCr showed an increasing trend with no statistically significant difference. Compared with the model group， the mice in the Bushen Kaixuan Tongluo prescription intervention groups had improved general conditions and a decreasing trend in body weight. Biochemical indicators showed that the levels of BUN， uALB， ACR， TC， GSP， and INS were significantly decreased （P<0.05）， while SCr， AST， ALT， TG， and LEP showed a decreasing trend with no statistically significant difference. Renal histopathological analysis showed that the model group exhibited typical DKD pathological features such as thickening of the glomerular basement membrane， expansion of the mesangial matrix， and deposition of collagen fibers in the renal tubulointerstitium， and all treatment groups could alleviate the above pathological damages. The IHC results showed that compared with the blank group， the expression levels of p-PKA and p-CREB in the renal tissues of the model group were significantly decreased （P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， the expression level of p-PKA in the medium-dose Bushen Kaixuan Tongluo prescription group was significantly increased （P<0.01）， while the expression level of p-CREB showed an increasing trend with no statistically significant difference. Western blot results showed that compared with the blank group， the expression levels of p-PKA/PKA， p-CREB/CREB， and Bcl-2 in the model group were significantly decreased （P<0.05）. Compared with the model group， the expression levels of these proteins in the medium-dose Bushen Kaixuan Tongluo prescription group were significantly increased （P<0.01）. Real-time PCR results showed that compared with the blank group， the mRNA expressions of PKA， CREB， and Bcl-2 in the model group were significantly down-regulated （P<0.05）. Compared with the model group， the mRNA expressions of these genes in the medium-dose Bushen Kaixuan Tongluo prescription group were significantly up-regulated （P<0.05）. ConclusionThe Bushen Kaixuan Tongluo prescription can improve the liver and kidney functions of db/db mice， correct lipid metabolism disorders and glucose metabolism imbalance. Its renal protective effect is associated with up-regulating the cAMP signaling pathway to improve renal fibrosis and reduce the level of oxidative stress， thereby protecting renal function.

Objective: To analyze the characteristics and key risk factors of abnormal blood disposal throughout the 2024-2025 blood collection and supply process based on nationwide multi-site monitoring data, develop a comprehensive prevention and control strategy across the entire chain, reduce preventable blood waste, and ensure clinical blood safety. Methods: According to the Guidelines for Haemovigilance (T/CSBT 001-2026), we extracted 74 cases of abnormal blood disposal events reported by the China Blood Transfusion Association′s Blood Safety Monitoring System from January 1 2024, to December 31 2025, and conducted descriptive statistical analysis on the distribution of events, types of deviations, root causes, and classifications of disposal manifestations. Results: A total of 664 adverse events related to blood collection and supply were reported over two years, with 74 cases involving discarded abnormal blood units, accounting for 11.1% of the total. Among these, blood component preparation (40.5%) and blood collection (37.8%) remained traditional high-risk stages. The proportion of blood waste occurring during storage, distribution, and transportation increased from 7.7% in 2024 to 34.3% in 2025. Deviations from standard operating procedures (SOP) by personnel were the primary cause, accounting for 74.3% of cases. Discarded blood units were categorized into four types: compromised closed blood bag systems (40 cases), mainly due to inadequate heat sealing, physical damage, or dropped bags; blood out of the cold chain (12 cases), primarily resulting from blood being left at work sites; imbalanced proportion of preservation solution (10 cases), mostly caused by blood collection volumes exceeding the standard capacity of blood bags; and other causes (12 cases). Conclusion: Human operational errors are the core cause of abnormal blood waste. The collection and preparation stages have long been at high-risk, and the risks in the storage and transportation stages have been increasing year by year. We should focus on standardizing personnel management, improving specialized operation norms such as heat sealing, transportation, and storage, establishing a full-process intelligent cold chain monitoring and multi-node visual verification mechanism, and systematically reducing the occurrence rate of abnormal blood waste through a closed-loop quality intervention system, thereby improving the utilization efficiency of voluntary blood donation resources.

Objective:To explore the impact of the two-way referral model on compliance and prognosis in patients with heart failure.Methods:This bidirectional cohort study enrolled chronic heart failure (CHF) patients treated at Qilu Hospital of Shandong University or designated primary hospitals between March 2018 and March 2022. Patients were categorized into two groups based on referral status: two-way referral group (participating in the referral model with≥1 follow-up visit at primary hospitals) and the core hospital group (receiving treatment and follow-up exclusively at Qilu Hospital). Baseline clinical characteristics were collected and compared between groups. Patients underwent followed-up, with primary endpoints including follow-up rate, drug (β-blockers, angiotension converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEI)/angiotensin Ⅱ receptor blockers (ARB)/angiotensin receptor-neprilysin inhibitor (ARNI), sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors and mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists) utilization rate and target dose achievement rate. Secondary endpoints encompassed changes from baseline in left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), left ventricular end-diastolic diameter (LVEDd), and N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP), plus cardiovascular mortality and heart failure rehospitalization. Generalized linear mixed models analyzed longitudinal trends in LVEF, LVEDd, and NT-proBNP levels. Kaplan-Meier curves and Cox regression evaluated LVEF recovery rates, supplemented by subgroup analyses. Multivariate logistic regression was used to identify factors influencing target dose achievement rate for β-blockers and ACEI/ARB/ARNI therapies in CHF patients.Results:A total of 357 patients were enrolled, aged 53 (41, 63) years, including 256 males (71.7%). 157 patients were in the two-way referral group and 200 patients in the core hospital-treated group. Compared with the core hospital-treated group, the two-way referral group had lower baseline LVEF (28 (22, 34)% vs. 31 (23, 36)%, P=0.021) and systolic blood pressure (116 (104, 125) mmHg vs. 121 (109, 134) mmHg (1 mmHg=0.133 kPa), P=0.010). The 12-month follow-up rate of the two-way referral group was higher than the core hospital-treated group (73.8% vs. 56.0%, P=0.004). No significant between-group differences were observed in drug utilization rate of β-blockers, ACEI/ARB/ARNI, or sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors during follow-up (all P>0.05), while mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists use showed a declining trend in both groups. Although the core hospital-treated group had higher target dose achievement rates for β-blockers (65.4% vs. 49.3%, P=0.042) and ACEI/ARB/ARNI (79.8% vs. 65.8%, P=0.046) than the two-way referral group, multivariate logistic regression indicated that the two-way referral model was not a negative predictor for these outcomes (all P>0.05). Both groups showed improved NT-proBNP, LVEDd, and LVEF from baseline (all P<0.001) with no significant difference in trends between groups (all P>0.05). There was no significant difference in the composite incidence (7.6% vs. 6.5%, P=0.674) and cumulative incidence (log-rank P=0.684) of cardiovascular death and heart failure rehospitalization at 12 months between two groups. Conclusion:The two-way referral model demonstrates advantages in improving medication adherence, drug utilization rates, and targetdoseachievement rates among CHF patients. This model not only promotes cardiac functional recovery but also reduces risks of cardiovascular mortality and heart failure rehospitalization, achieving comparable therapeutic and management outcomes to those observed in core hospital-treated patients.

Purpose Based on multimodal imaging combined with a variety of histological techniques,to visually evaluate the changes of rats brain metabolic microenvironment after cerebral hypoxia and ischemia of prematurity,and to discuss the effects of abnormal lactate metabolism in the brain on oligodendrocyte precursor cells,so as to provide a basis for the early diagnosis and treatment of premature white matter injury(PWMI).Materials and Methods A total of 36 SPF-grade healthy 3-day-old Sprague-Dawley neonatal rats were randomly assigned to the sham surgery(Sham)group and the model(PWMI)group using a random number table method,with 18 rats in each group.A neonatal rat PWMI model was established by hypoxia-ischemia method.Twenty-four hours after modeling,laser speckle imaging was used to monitor cerebral blood flow and blood oxygen changes.Multimodal imaging was used to observe the changes in brain tissue microstructure and metabolism after PWMI.HE staining was used to observe the morphological changes of nerve cells in the white matter of the brain.Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was used to detect the changes of lactate content and lactate dehydrogenase activity in the white matter region of the brain after PWMI in neonatal rats.PDGFR-α immunofluorescence staining was used to observe the dynamic changes of the number of oligodendrocyte precursor cells in the subependymal zone after PWMI in neonatal rats.Results Twenty-four hours after modeling,the multimodal imaging results showed that the T2WI and diffusion-weighted imaging on the injured side of the PWMI group showed high intensity,and the relative cerebral blood flow,relative oxygen saturation,relative apparent diffusion coefficient and amide proton transfer(APT)Lorentzian difference value were lower than those in the Sham group(t=29.466,23.522,59.006,54.778,10.263,all P<0.001),and the lactate content was higher than that in the Sham group(t=-7.521,P<0.001).The results of HE staining and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay showed that the arrangement of nerve cells in the white matter area of the injured side of the brain in the PWMI group was loose and disordered.The lactate content and lactate dehydrogenase activity were higher than those in the Sham group(t=-6.079,-10.548,both P<0.001).The results of immunofluorescence staining showed that the number of PDGFR-α+cells in the subependymal zone of the damaged side of the PWMI group was higher than that of the Sham group at 24 hours after modeling,and lower than that in the Sham group at 11 days after modeling(t=-8.386,6.676,both P<0.001).The correlation analysis between the lactate content and APT Lorentzian difference value in the brain and the number of oligodendrocyte precursor cells in the brain 11 days after modeling showed that the number of oligodendrocyte precursor cells in the subependymal zone was positively correlated with the APT Lorentzian difference value(r=0.821,P=0.001 1),and negatively correlated with the lactate content in the brain(r=-0.880,P=0.000 2).Conclusion Multimodal imaging can monitor the early brain metabolism changes of PWMI in neonatal rats,especially the changes of lactate,and provide a visual basis for their early diagnosis.The level of lactate in the brain increases after cerebral hypoxia and ischemia in prematurity,and oligodendrocyte precursor cells increase transiently and then decrease,resulting in PWMI.

Objective To analyze the epidemiological distribution characteristics and influencing factors of treat-ment outcome of pulmonary tuberculosis(PTB)patients complicated with diabetes mellitus(DM)in Bijie City from 2017 to 2022,and provide reference for formulating prevention and control measures of PTB-DM.Methods The registered management cases of PTB patients combined with DM from the tuberculosis surveillance report informa-tion management system in Bijie City in 2017-2022 were collected.Changing trends in annual registration rates and successful treatment rates were analyzed with Joint-point regression models.Different characteristics between pa-tients with PTB-DM and PTB alone were conducted comparative analysis;the influencing factors of treatment out-come were analyzed by x2 test and binary logistic regression analysis.Results A total of 679 PTB-DM patients were registered in Bijie City from 2017 to 2022,accounting for 1.53％of total PTB patients,the annual registration rate increased from 1.11/100 000 in 2017 to 3.08/100 000 in 2022,with an increasing trend in the annual percentage change(APC=26.67％,95％CI:5.36％-52.29％,t=3.564,P=0.024).In the analysis on characteristics,the proportion of PTB-DM male patients,age ≥45 years and farmers,the ratio of direct consultation to transfer treat-ment,the pathogenicity positive rate,the proportion re-treatment,and rate of delay in consultation were all higher than those of PTB alone;successful treatment rate and proportion of floating population were all lower than PTB alone,difference were all statistically significant(all P＜0.05).The successful treatment rate of PTB-DM patients in Bijie City from 2017 to 2022 was 87.80％.Age,occupation,pathogenicity diagnosis results were influencing fac-tors for treatment outcome in patients with PTB-DM,with farmers(OR=3.68,95％CI:1.22-11.09),with pathogenicity positivity(OR=2.84,95％CI:1.24-6.50),and without pathogenic detection result+tuberculous pleurisy(OR=11.35,95％CI:2.16-59.74)being risk factors for successful treatment.Conclusion Although the proportion of PTB-DM in the total PTB patients in Bijie City from 2017 to 2022 was not high,it showed an up-ward trend;it is necessary to attach great importance to male,re-treated,farmer,and pathogenicity positivity co-morbid patients in Bijie City,and strengthen the two-way screening of PTB-DM in high-risk populations.

The blue fluorescent carbon dots(TMCDs)and cyan fluorescent carbon dots(TMCDs-H2O)were synthesized fromm-phenylenediamine and tricarballylic acid through air-assisted melting polymerization and one-step hydrothermal method,respectively.Air purging could effectively inhibit the side reactions and reduce the derivative structures in the carbon dots product.The structure and morphology of these two materials were systematically characterized using liquid nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy(NMR),mass spectrometry(MS),and transmission electron microscopy.Compared to TMCDs-H2O((3.12±0.63)nm),TMCDs showed a smaller average particle size(approximately(1.85±0.02)nm).The NMR and MS analysis revealed that although the main structure of both types of carbon dots was similar,TMCDs exhibited a simpler structure with higher degree of polymerization.These results suggested that supramolecular interactions might introduce numerous small molecule derivatives into TMCDs-H2O particles,resulting in lower polymerization degree,multiple substructures,and larger particle size characteristics for this material.When employed as chemical sensors for metal ion detection,in the linear range of 1×10-5-5×10-4 mol/L,the detection limits of Fe3+by TMCDs and TMCDs-H2O were 3.3×10-6 mol/L and 3.8×10-6 mol/L,respectively.The experimental results demonstrated that the recoveries of CDs and inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometer(ICP-OES)were similarity,whereas TMCDs displayed a considerable relative standard deviation.This study demonstrated that endogenously derived structures in CDs could enhance the performance of metal ion sensing.
