Acute carbon monoxide poisoning (ACMP) is one of the most common gas poisonings in the emergency department, with tens of thousands of people seeking medical attention for carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning each year. The severity of poisoning is dependent upon environmental and human factors, with hypoxia and oxidative stress being important mechanisms of cardiac toxicity induced by CO. Myocardial involvement is common in moderate to severe ACMP, including myocardial injury, myocardial infarction, arrhythmia, and sudden death, which are associated with a high risk of death. Ferroptosis is a cell death mechanism caused by iron-dependent lipid peroxidation (LPO), although ferroptosis has been shown to play a critical role in various cardiovascular diseases, the potential mechanism by which it contributes to ACMP-induced myocardial injury is unclear. This review discusses the established link between ferroptosis and cardiovascular disease and summarizes the potential role of ferroptosis in ACMP-induced myocardial injury and the detrimental effects of ACMP on the heart. Elucidating these mechanisms could guide the development of novel therapeutic strategies that target ferroptosis to mitigate ACMP-induced myocardial injury. This review aims to provide a theoretical foundation for future research on the potential use of ferroptosis as a therapeutic target for ACMP-induced myocardial injury.

Objective To explore the application of bundled nursing care for recurrent obstruc-tive esophageal cancer treated by photodynamic therapy.Methods Thirty patients with recurrent ob-structive esophageal cancer were administered with photosensitizer hematoporphyrin derivative injec-tion.After 24 hours,an optical fiber was introduced under endoscopic guidance,and 630 nm laser was used to irradiate the tumor locally.The degree of relief in dysphagia,improvement in perform-ance status,changes in body mass index,and treatment-related adverse reactions were recorded.Bundled nursing strategies were implemented,including preoperative assessment,education,prepara-tion,postoperative positioning,observation,prevention of complications,and light protection meas-ures.Results After treatment,the median diameter of the narrowest esophageal lesion was increased[(8.92±0.64)mm versus(4.77±0.60)mm],the Karnofsky Performance Status(KPS)score was improved[(77.69±5.99)versus(84.62±6.60)],BMI was increased[(17.17±1.66)kg/m2 ver-sus(18.08±1.60)kg/m2],and the Stooler dysphagia grade was decreased compared with treatment be-fore.The main treatment-related adverse reactions were retrosternal pain and fever.Conclusion Photo-dynamic therapy for recurrent obstructive esophageal cancer has a rapid onset of action and mild ad-verse reactions,and ensures the smooth implementation of PDT and patients'safety.

Objective To develop nanobodies with broad-spectrum reactivity,specificity,and high sensitivity that can be used for detecting multiple subtypes of influenza A virus,and to establish a nanobody-based enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA)method.Methods Gene sequences of twelve nanobodies against influenza A virus were retrieved from the National Center for Biotechnology Information(NCBI)and nanobody databases.The nanoantibodies were prepared using molecular biological techniques including gene synthesis and recombinant expression.The binding activity,specificity,sensitivity,and affinity of these nanobodies were determined by ELISA screening and Gator affinity analysis.A double-antibody sandwich ELISA assay was established by combining the selected nanobody with a traditional mouse monoclonal antibody.Results Twelve nanobodies were expressed and purified.Two nanobodies capable of binding to multiple subtypes of influenza virus including H1,H3,H5,H7,and H9 were obtained and designated as VHH54 and KV108.Both nanobodies showed no cross-reactivity with other respiratory virus antigens.Furthermore,the KV108 nanobody exhibited the highest binding affinity,with a dissociation constant of 5.94×10-9mol/L for the influenza virus nucleoprotein(NP),and the lowest detection concentration for the NP antigen reached 0.00064 μg/mL.The double-antibody sandwich ELISA,using a combination of KV108 and a mouse monoclonal antibody,could sensitively detect the five common subtypes of influenza A virus(H1N1,H3N2,H5N1,H7N9,and H9N2).The lowest detection limit reached 110-403 PFU/mL,which was higher than that of the commercial colloidal gold kitfor influenza virus detection.Conclusion This study has identified a nanobody KV108,which is capable of binding to multiple subtypes of influenza virus,and established a nanobody-based ELISA method that can detect multiple subtypes of influenza A virus.This study can facilitate the development of nanobody-based influenza detection technologies.

Objective To invesitgate the epidemiological characteristics of common allergens in 10 664 patients with allergic diseases in Zhengzhou area.Methods A total of 10 664 patients visited our hospital and underwent serum allergen screening during January 2013 and August 2021 were selected,and their serum sIgE results were retrospectively analyzed.Results The total positive rate of sIgE to allergens in 10 664 patients was 69.82%.The positive rate of sIgE to inhalant allergens was significantly higher than that to in-gestive allergens(χ2=99.15,P＜0.01).The top three inhalant allergens were grass and tree combination,dust mite combination,and cockroach.The top three ingestive allergens were egg protein,milk,and seafood combination.The positive rate of sIgE to ingestive al-lergens in males was significantly higher than that in females(χ2=8.18,P＜0.01).The highest positive rate of sIgE to ingestive aller-gens was found in the early childhood period(χ2=125.92,P＜0.05).The highest positive rate of sIgE to inhalant allergens was found in the school-age and preschool periods(χ2=283.76,P＜0.01).The proportions of sIgE to cockroach and house dust mite showed a de-creasing trend year by year,while the proportions of sIgE to milk,peanut,lamb,and seafood combination showed an increasing trend year by year.Conclusion The top three inhalant and ingestive allergens in Zhengzhou area are grass and tree combination,dust mite,cockroach and egg protein,milk,seafood combination,respectively.In recent years,the allergies to milk,peanut,lamb,and seafood should be paid attention.

Objective To explore the efficacy of blunt separation method in midline catheter intubation in elderly patients with coagulation dysfunction.Methods A total of 80 elderly patients with coagulation dysfunction were selected in the convenience sampling method from October 2022 to April 2023 in our hospital,and they were randomly divided into an experimental(blunt)group and a control(routine)group,with 40 patients in each group.The differences in the degree of bleeding and exudation at the puncture site,the pain score and the incidence of complications(including bleeding and exudation,phlebitis,symptomatic catheter-related thrombus,catheter blockage,catheter pulling-off)were compared between 2 groups.Results In the experimental group,the degree of bleeding and exudation at the puncture point immediately after the operation,degree of bleeding and exudation at the puncture point 24 hours after the operation,pain score 1 day after the catheterization,pain score 3 days after the catheterization,incidence of bleeding and exudation,total incidence of complications and maintenance times were significantly lower than these in the control group(P＜0.05).In terms of the pain score immediately after the operation,pain score 5 days after the operation,incidence of phlebitis,incidence of symptomatic catheter-related thrombosis,incidence of catheter blockage,incidence of catheter pulling-off,incidence of catheter related skin injury,incidence of unplanned extubation,success rate of one-time sheath delivery and the indwelling time,the differences between the experimental group and control group were not significant(P＜0.05).Conclusion The application of blunt separation method in midline catheter indwelling can significantly reduce the incidence and degree of bleeding at the puncture point,decrease the maintenance times and relieve the pain in elderly patients with coagulation dysfunction.

Objective:To investigate the safety and therapeutic effect of split liver transplantation (SLT) in clinical application.Methods:This is a retrospective case-series study. The clinical data of 203 consecutive SLT, 79 living donor liver transplantation (LDLT) and 1 298 whole liver transplantation (WLT) performed at the Third Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University from July 2014 to July 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. Two hundred and three SLT liver grafts were obtained from 109 donors. One hundred and twenty-seven grafts were generated by in vitro splitting and 76 grafts were generated by in vivo splitting. There were 90 adult recipients and 113 pediatric recipients. According to time, SLT patients were divided into two groups: the early SLT group (40 cases, from July 2014 to December 2017) and the mature SLT technology group (163 cases, from January 2018 to July 2023). The survival of each group was analyzed and the main factors affecting the survival rate of SLT were analyzed. The Kaplan-Meier method and Log-rank test were used for survival analysis.Results:The cumulative survival rates at 1-, 3-, and 5-year were 74.58%, 71.47%, and 71.47% in the early SLT group, and 88.03%, 87.23%, and 87.23% in the mature SLT group, respectively. Survival rates in the mature SLT group were significantly higher than those in the early SLT group ( χ2=5.560, P=0.018). The cumulative survival rates at 1-, 3- and 5-year were 93.41%, 93.41%, 89.95% in the LDLT group and 87.38%, 81.98%, 77.04% in the WLT group, respectively. There was no significant difference among the mature SLT group, the LDLT group and the WLT group ( χ2=4.016, P=0.134). Abdominal hemorrhage, infection, primary liver graft nonfunction,and portal vein thrombosis were the main causes of early postoperative death. Conclusion:SLT can achieve results comparable to those of WLT and LDLT in mature technology liver transplant centers, but it needs to go through a certain time learning curve.
