OBJECTIVE To evaluate the comprehensive value of novel oral anticoagulant drugs （NOACs） after major orthopedic surgery. METHODS The evaluation evidence was collected through literature research； evidence and value：impact on decision-making （EVIDEM） framework was introduced to integrate the evaluation process； the multi-criteria decision analysis （MCDA） method was used to construct a multi-dimensional evaluation system； the weights assigned to each evaluation criterion were determined by the combination of Delphi method and analytic hierarchy process， and the rivaroxaban， dabigatran and apixaban were comprehensively evaluated. RESULTS The clinical comprehensive evaluation system of NOACs after major orthopedic surgery was successfully established， and the final clinical comprehensive evaluation weights of NOACs （rivaroxaban， dabigatran， apixaban） after major orthopedic surgery were calculated， with scores of 0.399 7 for rivaroxaban， 0.244 4 for apixaban， and 0.355 9 for dabigatran， indicating that rivaroxaban demonstrated the highest overall clinical value. Among them， rivaroxaban had the highest weight score in the evaluation of pharmaceutical characteristics， cost-effectiveness and other attributes in a single dimension. In terms of efficacy and safety evaluation， apixaban had the highest weighting score. CONCLUSIONS Among NOACs， rivaroxaban is more suitable for routine anticoagulation management after major orthopedic surgery， especially in terms of pharmacological properties， cost-effectiveness and other attributes.

Objective To assess the health risks of gaseous pollutants in the indoor air of hair and beauty salons in Jinan, and to provide technical support for strengthening the hygiene management of hair and beauty salons in Jinan and promoting the improvement of conditions. Methods Every year, indoor air samples were collected from 10-16 selected hair salons and beauty salons in Jinan, and relevant information on practitioners was also collected. According to the ^“Technical Guidelines for Environmental Health Risk Assessment of Chemicals^”, an assessment was conducted on the carcinogenic and non-carcinogenic risks of inhalation pathways of gaseous pollutants in the indoor air of hair salons and beauty salons. Results Benzene, toluene, xylene, formaldehyde, and ammonia were detected in the indoor air of hair salons and beauty salons. Formaldehyde, benzene, and ammonia all exceeded the standard in hair salons and beauty salons. The median risk values of formaldehyde and benzene for carcinogenesis in hair salons and beauty salons were both greater than 10^-6, with maximum values higher than 10^-4. The median chronic non-carcinogenic risk value of formaldehyde in the indoor air of hair salons and beauty salons was greater than 1. The median chronic non-carcinogenic risk values for benzene and ammonia were both less than 1, but the maximum risk value was greater than 1. Conclusion Benzene and formaldehyde in the indoor air of hair salons and beauty salons in Jinan City have carcinogenic and non-carcinogenic risks, while ammonia has non-carcinogenic risks, which should be paid attention to.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the correlation between the types and quantities of immune cells in the graft and early immune reconstitution after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) and their influence on clinical prognosis. METHODS: The clinical data of 83 patients with hematological diseases who received allo-HSCT in Shanxi Bethune Hospital from September 2020 to June 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. The number of mononuclear cells (MNC), CD34⁺ cells and lymphocyte subsets (including CD3⁺T, CD3⁺CD4⁺T(Th), CD3⁺CD8⁺T(Ts), NK cells and B cells) infused into the recipients was counted, and the peripheral blood lymphocytes were detected before conditioning and on days 14, 30, 60 and 100 post-HSCT. RESULTS: Multivariate analysis showed that the number of MNC in the graft affected the recovery of CD4⁺T lymphocytes after HSCT, and the number of CD4⁺T lymphocytes in the graft affected the recovery of NK cells and B cells after HSCT. The patient age, donor sex, stem cell source, degree of HLA matching, use of ATG before HSCT, the occurrence of acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) after HSCT, and viral infection all affect the early cellular immune reconstitution post-HSCT. The number of infused cells had no significant impact on the median engraftment time for neutrophils and platelets after HSCT. Patients with lower numbers of CD3⁺T, CD4⁺T and B cells in the graft were more prone to viral infection after HSCT. However, the cells in the graft had no significant effect on disease recurrence or mortality. CONCLUSION The recovery rate of lymphocyte count after allo-HSCT varies. The numbers of MNC and CD4⁺T cells in the graft may be related to the cellular immune reconstitution after HSCT, while the numbers of CD34⁺,CD3⁺T,CD8⁺T,NK and B cells have no significant effect on the cellular immune reconstruction. The numbers of CD3⁺T,CD4⁺T and B cells in the graft were negatively correlated with viral infection after HSCT, but the cellular components of the graft have no obvious influence on hematopoietic reconstitution, disease recurrence, death, recurrence-free survival(RFS) and overall survival(OS) after HSCT.

Pelvic organ prolapse (POP), whose etiology is influenced by genetic and clinical risk factors, considerably impacts women's quality of life. However, the genetic underpinnings in non-European populations and comprehensive risk models integrating genetic and clinical factors remain underexplored. This study constructed the first polygenic risk score (PRS) for POP in the Chinese population by utilizing 20 disease-associated variants from the largest existing genome-wide association study. We analyzed a discovery cohort of 576 cases and 623 controls and a validation cohort of 264 cases and 200 controls. Results showed that the case group exhibited a significantly higher PRS than the control group. Moreover, the odds ratio of the top 10% risk group was 2.6 times higher than that of the bottom 10%. A high PRS was significantly correlated with POP occurrence in women older than 50 years old and in those with one or no childbirths. As far as we know, the integrated prediction model, which combined PRS and clinical risk factors, demonstrated better predictive accuracy than other existing PRS models. This combined risk assessment model serves as a robust tool for POP risk prediction and stratification, thereby offering insights into individualized preventive measures and treatment strategies in future clinical practice.

ObjectiveTo prepare oral nanoemulsions encapsulating essential oil from Alpinia zerumbet fructus（EOFAZ） and to investigate its pro-absorption effect in vitro and distribution in vivo. MethodThe proteoglycan conjugate polysaccharides of vinegar-processed Bupleuri Radix-bovine serum albumin（VBCP-BSA） was prepared by Maillard reaction of VBCP and BSA. Taking VBCP-BSA as emulsifier， vitamin B₁₂（VB₁₂） as absorption enhancer， and medium chain triglycerides mixed with EOFAZ as oil phase， the nanoemulsions loaded with EOFAZ was prepared by high energy emulsification method. The particle size， particle size distribution， surface Zeta potential， EOFAZ content and appearance and morphology of the nanoemulsions were characterized， and fluorescein tracer method was used to investigate the absorption effect of fluorescein-labeled EOFAZ nanoemulsions in vitro and their distribution in vivo. ResultVBCP-BSA was formed by Maillard reaction for 48 h with high grafting rate. Using VBCP-BSA as emulsifier， the homogeneous pink nanoemulsions was prepared and denoted as EOFAZ@VBCP-BSA/VB₁₂. The particle size of the nanoemulsions was less than 100 nm and the particle size distribution was uniform. The surface of the nanoemulsions was a weak negative charge， and the shape was spherical. The encapsulation rate of the nanoemulsions for EOFAZ was greater than 80%， which had a good absorption effect in vitro and could enhance liver accumulation after oral administration. ConclusionThe designed proteoglycan nanoemulsions can effectively load EOFAZ， promote oral absorption and enhance liver distribution， which can provide experimental basis for the development of oral EOFAZ liver protection preparations.
