OBJECTIVE To investigate a dynamic monitoring of drug consumption （DMDC） model based on the seasonal Mann-Kendall trend test， aiming to provide scientific evidence for the efficient and macroscopic monitoring of drug use. METHODS A monitoring list of key outpatient drugs was established based on the top 20% of drugs ranked by sales volume in the outpatient pharmacy in October 2024. A DMDC model based on the Mann-Kendall trend test was constructed using the monthly usage data of key outpatient drugs from November 2021 to October 2024， aiming to eliminate the impact of seasonal fluctuations and analyze the temporal trends in drug consumption. Taking mucolytic expectorants， triazole derivatives for dermatophytosis， and single-agent hydroxymethylglutaryl coenzyme A （HMG-CoA） reductase inhibitors as examples， the monitoring effectiveness of the DMDC model was demonstrated， and its performance was compared with that achieved by the traditional sequential growth rate ranking method. RESULTS A total of 215 drug varieties were included in the monitoring list， and DMDC models were successfully established for all of them. Among these， 119 showed a significant increasing trend （P＜0.05， S′＞0）. The model successfully monitored the monthly consumption of mucolytic expectorants， triazole derivatives for dermatophytosis， and single- agent HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors. The precision and recall rates of the DMDC model for identifying abnormal drug use were 60.7% and 85.0%， respectively， both significantly higher than those of the sequential growth rate ranking method （8.3% and 15.0%， respectively） （χ2＝20.114， P＜0.001； χ2＝19.600， P＜0.001）. CONCLUSIONS DMDC model based on the seasonal Mann-Kendall trend test can effectively identify long-term trends in drug consumption， eliminate seasonal interference， enhance monitoring accuracy and management efficiency， and is suitable for the dynamic monitoring of drug consumption.

OBJECTIVE: To analyze the hematological characteristics of patients with three common deletional β-thalassemia and concomitant α-thalassemia in Huizhou, Guangdong province. METHODS: A total of 1 335 subjects of childbearing age with hemoglobin F (Hb F) ≥ 5% at the Huizhou First Maternal and Child Health Care Hospital between June 2014 and December 2023 were enrolled as our study cohort. The hematological parameters were determined by blood cell counters and automatic capillary electrophoresis, while liquid phase chip and gap-PCR were employed for the detection of routine thalassemias and the three common deletional β-thalassemia, respectively. The hematological characteristics of patients with the deletional β-thalassemia were analyzed. This study was reviewed and approved by the Ethics Committee of Huizhou First Maternal and Child Health Care Hospital [Ethics No. 20231107(B2)]. RESULTS: A total of 384 cases of the three common deletional β-thalassemia were identified, including 184 cases of Chinese Gγ⁺(Aγδβ)⁰, 191 cases of Southeast Asian hereditary persistence of fetal hemoglobin (SEA-HPFH), and nine cases of Chinese Taiwanese, for a total detection rate of 28.76%. Patients who did not meet the established criteria were excluded from the study, leaving 372 cases. All of which presented with hypochromic microcytic anemia and significantly elevated Hb F. Except for normal or decreasing of Hb A2 levels in patients with Chinese Gγ⁺(Aγδβ)⁰, the levels of Hb A2 in patients with the other two deletional β-thalassemia were increased with different degrees. Differential comparison results showed that significant differences were observed in Hb A2 and Hb F values among the groups of the three common deletional β-thalassemia heterozygotes (P < 0.05). According to the type of gene variation, 180 patients with Chinese Gγ⁺(Aγδβ)⁰ heterozygotes were divided into three groups, including αα/αα, Chinese Gγ⁺(Aγδβ)⁰/β^N (149), -α/αα, Chinese Gγ⁺(Aγδβ)⁰/β^N (14), and --/αα, Chinese Gγ⁺(Aγδβ)⁰/β^N (17). Similarly, 179 patients with SEA-HPFH heterozygotes were divided into three groups, including αα/αα, SEA-HPFH/β^N (150), -α/αα, SEA-HPFH/β^N (12), and --/αα, SEA-HPFH/β^N (17). Differential comparison results showed that the Hb F levels of the Chinese Gγ⁺(Aγδβ)⁰ combined with α⁰-thalassemia group were significantly lower than those of the Chinese Gγ⁺(Aγδβ)⁰ combined with α⁺-thalassemia group and the control group (P < 0.05). The mean corpuscular volume (MCV), mean corpuscular hemoglobin (MCH), and Hb F values of the SEA-HPFH combined with α⁰-thalassemia group were significantly lower than those of the SEA-HPFH combined with α⁺-thalassemia group and the control group (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION The above research results can not only enhance the ability of clinicians to identify deletional β-thalassemia and concomitant α-thal, improve the level of genetic counseling, but also provide data support for the development of deletional β-thalassemia prevention and control programme and the development of prenatal and postnatal care.

Objective:To investigate the effect of different surgical timing on the surgical treatment of renal angiomyolipoma(RAML)with rupture and hemorrhage.Methods:The demographic data and peri-operative data of 31 patients with rupture and hemorrhage of RAML admitted to our medical center from June 2013 to February 2023 were collected.The surgery within 7 days after hemorrhage was defined as a short-term surgery group,the surgery between 7 days and 6 months after hemorrhage was defined as a me-dium-term surgery group,and the surgery beyond 6 months after hemorrhage was defined as a long-term surgery group.The perioperative related indicators among the three groups were compared.Results:This study collected 31 patients who underwent surgical treatment for RAML rupture and hemorrhage,of whom 13 were males and 18 were females,with an average age of(46.2±11.3)years.The short-term surgery group included 7 patients,the medium-term surgery group included 12 patients and the long-term surgery group included 12 patients.In terms of tumor diameter,the patients in the long-term surgery group were significantly lower than those in the recent surgery group[(6.6±2.4)cmvs.(10.0±3.0)cm,P=0.039].In terms of operation time,the long-term surgery group was significantly shorter than the mid-term surgery group[(157.5±56.8)min vs.(254.8±80.1)min,P=0.006],and there was no sig-nificant difference between other groups.In terms of estimated blood loss during surgery,the long-term surgery group was significantly lower than the mid-term surgery group[35(10,100)mL vs.650(300,1 200)mL,P＜0.001],and there was no significant difference between other groups.In terms of intraoperative blood transfusion,the long-term surgery group was significantly lower than the mid-term surgery group[0(0,0)mL vs.200(0,700)mL,P=0.014],and there was no significant difference between other groups.In terms of postoperative hospitalization days,the long-term surgery group was sig-nificantly lower than the mid-term surgery group[5(4,7)d vs.7(6,10)d,P=0.011],and there was no significant difference between other groups.Conclusion:We believe that for patients with RAML rupture and hemorrhage,reoperation for more than 6 months is a relatively safe time range,with minimal intraoperative bleeding.Therefore,it is more recommended to undergo surgical treatment after the hema-toma is systematized through conservative treatment.

Cryoablation therapy with explicit anti-tumor mechanisms and histopathological manifestations has a long history.A large number of clinical practice has shown that cryoablation therapy is safe and effective,making it an ideal tumor treatment method in theory.Previously,its efficacy and clinical application were constrained by the limitations of refrigerants and refrigeration equipment.With the development of the new generation of cryoablation equipment represented by argon helium knives,significant progress has been made in refrigeration efficien-cy,ablation range,and precise temperature measurement,greatly promoting the progression of tumor cryoablation technology.This consensus systematically summarizes the mechanism of cryoablation technology,indications for oral mucosal melanoma(OMM)cryotherapy,clinical treatment process,adverse reactions and management,cryotherapy combination therapy,etc.,aiming to provide reference for carrying out the standardized cryoablation therapy of OMM.

OBJECTIVE To construct the integrated pharmaceutical care model of in-hospital pharmaceutical care+out-hospital pharmacy outpatient service for patients with lower extremity artery disease （LEAD）， so as to improve patients’ disease self- management ability， and the efficacy and safety of therapy. METHODS The in-hospital pharmaceutical care and out-hospital pharmacy outpatient service model was constructed for LEAD patients， including pharmaceutical evaluation， self-management ability education， and pharmacy follow-up， to perform long-term management of patients. Totally 65 LEAD patients admitted to the vascular surgery department of our hospital， receiving pharmacist management， from September， 2021 to December， 2022 were selected as the study objects， and pharmacists conducted in-hospital pharmaceutical care+continuous out-patient management. The efficacy indicators， safety indicators， and patients’s disease self-management ability indicators were compared before and after 3 months of pharmacist management. RESULTS After 3 months of pharmacists’ participation in the management of 65 patients， Fontaine stage decreased in 55 patients， there was the significant difference in Fontaine stage before and after management （P＜ 0.001）. The proportion of patients who completely followed the guidelines for medication increased from 63.1% to 96.9%； the incidence of small bleeding was reduced by 7.7% after pharmacists’ management. The scores of Morisky medication compliance and patients’ disease self-management ability were higher than 3 months ago （P＜0.001）. Patient proportion with “good” medical satisfaction increased by 18.4%. CONCLUSIONS The in-hospital pharmaceutical care and out-hospital pharmacy outpatient service model of LEAD patients can effectively improve patients’ disease self-management ability， and improve the efficacy and safety of therapy.

BACKGROUND:A large number of studies have investigated the effects of whole body vibration training at different frequencies on muscle strength,but less is reported on the differences in the efficacy of vibration training at different frequencies on patellar tendinopathy. OBJECTIVE:To explore the effect of eccentric training of quadriceps combined with different frequency of whole body vibration training on patellar tendinopathy. METHODS:From April to June 2022,48 patients with patellar tendinopathy were recruited from Wuhan Sports University and randomly divided into eccentric training group(n=12),30 Hz group(n=12),40 Hz group(n=12),and 50 Hz group(n=12).The eccentric training group only completed eccentric training of the quadriceps.The 30 Hz,40 Hz and 50 Hz groups performed the whole body vibration training with the amplitude of 2 mm and frequencies of 30 Hz,40 Hz and 50 Hz respectively on the basis of the eccentric training of the quadriceps.The intervention lasted for 8 weeks,three times a week.Before and after the intervention,the patients'surface electromyography signals of the quadriceps,kinematics and dynamics data of knee joint at the time of landing in deep jump and the time of peak vertical ground reaction,Visual Analogue Scale score,Victorian Institute of Sports Assessment-Patellar score were evaluated. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:After 8 weeks of intervention,compared with the eccentric training group,the median frequency of the lateral and medial femoris muscles were significantly higher in the 40 Hz and 50 Hz groups(P＜0.05).At the time of landing,the knee joint flexion angle and external rotation moment in the 40 Hz and 50 Hz groups were significantly lower than those in the eccentric training group(P＜0.05),while the knee joint flexion angle in the 50 Hz group was significantly lower than that in the 30 Hz group(P＜0.05).At the peak moment of vertical ground reaction,the knee extension torque in the 40 Hz group was significantly lower than that in the eccectric training group(P＜0.05);the knee flexion angle and knee extension torque in the 50 Hz group were significantly lower than those in the eccentric training group(P＜0.05).The Visual Analogue Scale scores in the 50 Hz and 40 Hz groups were significantly lower than those in the eccentric training group(P＜0.05).The Victorian Institute of Sports Assessment-Patellar score in the 50 Hz group was significantly higher than that in the eccentric training group and 30 Hz group(P＜0.05).To conclude,eccentric training of the quadriceps combined with 50 Hz whole body vibration training can significantly improve quadriceps'strength,endurance and activation rate of the vastus lateralis muscle,reduce the pain of knee joint,and improve the function of the knee joint in patients with patellar tendinopathy.

Objective:To summarize the clinical characteristics of patients with renal angiomyolipoma(RAML)combined with inferior vena cava(IVC)tumor thrombus,and to explore the feasibility of par-tial nephrectomy and thrombectomy in this series of patients.Methods:The clinical data of patients diagnosed with RAML combined with IVC tumor thrombus in the Department of Urology of the Peking University Third Hospital from April 2014 to March 2023 were retrospectively analyzed,and demographic and perioperative data of RAML patients with IVC tumor thrombus were recorded and collected from Elec-tronic Medical Record System,including age,gender,surgical methods,and follow-up time,etc.The clinical characteristics between classic angiomyolipoma(CAML)patients with IVC tumor thrombus and epithelioid angiomyolipoma(EAML)patients with IVC tumor thrombus were compared to determine the clinical characteristics of these patients.Results:A total of 11 patients were included in this study,in-cluding 7 patients with CAML with IVC tumor thrombus and 4 patients with EAML with IVC tumor thrombus.There were 9 females(9/11,81.8％)and 2 males(2/11,18.2％),with an average age of(44.0±17.1)years.9 patients(9/11,81.8％)experienced clinical symptoms,including local symp-toms including abdominal pain,hematuria,abdominal masses,and systemic symptoms including weight loss and fever;2 patients(2/11,18.2％)with RAML and IVC tumor thrombus did not show clinical symptoms,which were discovered by physical examination.Among the 11 patients,10 underwent radical nephrectomy with thrombectomy,of whom,3 underwent open surgery(3/10,30.0％),2 underwent laparoscopic surgery(2/10,20.0％),and 5 underwent robot-assisted laparoscopic surgery(5/10,50.0％).In addition,1 patient underwent open partial nephrectomy and thrombectomy.The patients with EAML combined with I VC tumor thrombus had a higher proportion of systemic clinical symptoms(100％vs.0％,P=0.003),more intraoperative bleeding[400(240,3 050)mL vs.50(50,300)mL,P=0.036],and a higher proportion of tumor necrosis(75％vs.0％,P=0.024)compared to the patients with CAML combined with I VC tumor thrombus.However,there was no statistically significant difference in operation time[(415.8±201.2)min vs.(226.0±87.3)min,P=0.053]between the two groups.Conclusion:Compared with the patients with CAML and IVC tumor thrombus,the patients with EAML and IVC tumor thrombus had a higher rate of systemic symptoms and tumor necrosis.In addi-tion,in the selected patients with CAML with IVC tumor thrombus,partial nephrectomy and tumor thrombectomy could be performed to better preserve renal function.

Objective:To investigate the influences and mechanism of extracellular vesicles from dermal papilla cells (DPC-EVs) of mice on human hypertrophic scar fibroblasts (HSFs).Methods:The study was an experimental research. The primary dermal papilla cells (DPCs) of whiskers were extracted from 10 6-week-old male C57BL/6J mice and identified successfully. The DPC-EVs were extracted from the 3 rd to 5 th passage DPCs by ultracentrifugation, and the morphology was observed through transmission electron microscope and the particle diameter was detected by nanoparticle tracking analyzer ( n=3) at 24 h after culture. The 3 rd passage of HSFs were divided into DPC-EV group and phosphate buffer solution (PBS) group, which were cultured with DPC-EVs and PBS, respectively. The cell scratch test was performed and cell migration rate at 24 h after scratching was calculated ( n=5). The cell proliferation levels at 0 (after 12 h of starvation treatment and before adding DPC-EVs or PBS), 24, 48, 72, and 96 h after culture were detected by using cell counting kit 8 ( n=4). The protein expressions of α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA) and collagen typeⅠ (ColⅠ) in cells at 24 h after culture were detected by immunofluorescence method and Western blotting, and the protein expression of Krüppel-like factor 4 (KLF4) in cells at 24 h after culture was detected by Western blotting. After the 3 rd passage of HSFs were cultured with DPC-EVs for 24 h, the cells were divided into blank control group, KLF4 knockdown group, and KLF4 overexpression group according to the random number table. The cells in blank control group were only routinely cultured for 48 h. The cells in KLF4 knockdown group and KLF4 overexpression group were incubated with KLF4 knockdown virus for 24 h, then the cells in KLF4 knockdown group were routinely cultured for 24 h while the cells in KLF4 overexpression group were incubated with KLF4 overexpression virus for 24 h. The protein expressions of KLF4, α-SMA, and ColⅠ in cells were detected by Western blotting at 48 h after culture. Results:At 24 h after culture, the extracted DPC-EVs showed vesicular structure with an average particle diameter of 108.8 nm. At 24 h after scratching, the migration rate of HSFs in PBS group was (54±10)%, which was significantly higher than (29±8)% in DPC-EV group ( t=4.37, P<0.05). At 48, 72, and 96 h after culture, the proliferation levels of HSFs in DPC-EV group were significantly lower than those in PBS group (with t values of 4.06, 5.76, and 6.41, respectively, P<0.05). At 24 h after culture, the protein expressions of α-SMA and ColⅠ of HSFs in DPC-EV group were significantly lower than those in PBS group, while the protein expression of KLF4 was significantly higher than that in PBS group. At 48 h after culture, compared with those in blank control group, the protein expression of KLF4 of HSFs in KLF4 knockdown group was down-regulated, while the protein expressions of α-SMA and ColⅠ were both up-regulated; compared with those in KLF4 knockdown group, the protein expression of KLF4 of HSFs in KLF4 overexpression group was up-regulated, while the protein expressions of ColⅠ and α-SMA were down-regulated. Conclusions:The DPC-EVs of mice can inhibit the proliferation and migration of human HSFs and significantly inhibit the expressions of fibrosis markers α-SMA and ColⅠ in human HSFs by activating KLF4.

Objective To explore whether the single leg vertical jump height limb symmetry index(LSI)＞90%can represent the normal lower limb biomechanics in athletes after anterior cruciate liga-ment reconstruction(ACLR)during jumping.Methods Forty-six athletes after ACLR were divided into a low symmetry group(jump height LSI＜90%,n=23)and a high symmetry group(jump height LSI＞90%,n=23)according to the symmetry of single leg vertical jump height,while 24 healthy counter-part athletes were chosen into the control group.The kinematic and kinetic characteristics were com-pared among the three groups.Results(1)At the take-off stage,compared with the control group,both sides of the low-symmetry group had higher peak hip flexion angle(P＜0.05),but only the operat-ed side showed lower knee flexion moment(P=0.002),knee power(P=0.01),ankle power(P=0.045)and peak vertical ground reaction force(P=0.008).(2)At the take-off stage,there were no significant differences between the operated side of the high symmetry group and the control group in all measure-ments.However,compared with the healthy side,the operated side demonstrated lower knee flexion moment(P=0.001),knee power(P=0.002),total power of lower limb(P=0.001)and peak vertical ground reaction force(P=0.046).(3)During landing,compared with the control group,bilateral sides of the low symmetry group showed a higher peak hip flexion angle(P＜0.05)and a lower peak flexion knee angle(P＜0.05),but its operated side demonstrated lower peak ankle dorsiflexion angle(P=0.018),knee flexion moment(P=0.005),knee power(P=0.037),ankle power(P=0.002),total power of lower limb(P=0.042),and peak vertical ground reaction force(P=0.022).(4)During landing,there were no significant differences in all variables between the operated side of the high symmetry group and the control group.However,compared with its healthy side,the affected side of the high symmetry group demonstrated lower knee flexion moment(P=0.002),ankle dorsiflexion moment(P=0.003),knee power(P＜0.001),total power of lower limbs(P=0.001),and peak vertical ground reaction force(P=0.023).Conclusion Despite achieving the single leg vertical jump height LSI＞90%,athletes after ACLR still showed abnormal lower limb biomechanical characteristics during propulsion and landing.In addition,such abnormality is more obvious in athletes after ACLR with jump height LSI＜90%.Therefore,sym-metry in jump height does not represent normal lower extremity biomechanics in athletes after ACLR.
