Objective To explore the application effect of the multidisciplinary team collaboration model in vascular access management for patients with maintenance hemodialysis.Methods A total of 102 patients with maintenance hemodialysis in the hospital from October 2023 to October 2024 were selected as the research subjects,and they were randomly divided into observation group and control group by the random number table method,with 51 cases in each group.The observation group re-ceived routine nursing combined with the multidisciplinary team collaboration model,while the control group received routine nursing.The multidisciplinary team collaboration model involved professionals from multiple disciplines,including nephrologists,vascular surgeons,interventional radiologists,B-ultrasound doctors,clinical pharmacists,nutritionists,psychological counselors,the head nurse of the blood purification center,and blood purification specialist nurses.The intervention duration was 6 months.The related indicators of dialysis adequacy[urea reduction ratio(URR),equilibrium urea clearance rate(eKt/V)],psychological burden[the Self-rating Anxiety Scale(SAS)and the Self-rating Depression Scale(SDS)],vascular access satisfaction degree[the Simple Version of Vascular Access Questionnaire(VAQ)],quality of life[the Kidney Disease-Targeted Areas Scale(KDTA)and the 36-item Short-form Health Survey(SF-36)],and complications were compared between the two groups before and after the intervention.Results After the intervention,the levels of URR and eKt/V and the score of each dimension of quality of life in the observation group were signifi-cantly higher than those in the control group,while the SAS and SDS scores were significantly lower than those in the control group(P＜0.05).After the intervention,the satisfaction rate of vascular access in the observation group was 96.08％(49/51),which was significantly higher than 80.39％(41/51)in the control group(x2=6.044,P=0.014).The total complication rate in the observa-tion group was 1.96％(1/51),which was significantly lower than 13.73％(7/51)in the control group(P＜0.05).Conclusion The adoption of the multidisciplinary team collaboration model for patients with maintenance hemodialysis is beneficial for improving the adequacy of hemodialysis,re-ducing psychological burden,enhancing vascular access satisfaction and quality of life,and preven-ting complications.

Background: Psoralea corylifolia L. (Buguzhi, BGZ), known for its efficacy in supporting pregnancy and preventing miscarriage, has been used in China for over 1000 years. Recently, BGZ has been identified as a potential cause of drug-induced liver injury. However, its safety during pregnancy remains unclear, which significantly hinders its routine clinical application. Objective: To investigate the effects of BGZ administration during pregnancy on the liver of mouse mothers and their weaned 21-day-old offspring. Methods: Mice were orally administered BGZ at doses of 2.5 and 10 g/kg during pregnancy, with BGZ withdrawal during the lactation period. Liver histopathology (hematoxylin-eosin staining), biochemical analysis, and evaluation of liver bile acid metabolism were performed after the lactation period. Results: BGZ administration at doses of 2.5 and 10 g/kg during pregnancy, followed by withdrawal during the lactation period, caused mild liver damage in both mothers and their 21-day-old offspring. Serum total bile acid (TBA) levels were elevated compared with those in the control group. Additionally, changes were observed in the levels and proportions of various bile acids (BAs) in the liver, suggesting mild effects on BA metabolism. Conclusion: BGZ administration during pregnancy caused mild liver damage and increased serum TBA levels in both mouse mothers and their 21-day-old offspring. This phenomenon may be associated with imbalanced BA metabolism in the liver. Based on the present study and the limited toxicological research on BGZ, pregnant women should avoid prolonged use of BGZ. If BGZ is administered during pregnancy, serum TBA levels should be monitored, and if elevated, BGZ should be discontinued.

Background: Aristolochic acid II (AAII), a major nephrotoxic and carcinogenic component of aristolochic acids (AAs), has been less studied compared with its well-characterized analog, aristolochic acid I (AAI). Although AAs are known to induce carcinogenesis via DNA adduct formation, the toxicity mechanisms, environmental prevalence, and long-term health impacts of AAII remain poorly understood. Objective: This study aimed to systematically evaluate AAII’s acute and chronic toxicity, carcinogenic mechanisms, and environmental exposure patterns using integrated murine models and phytochemical analyses to clarify its toxicological profile and associated health risks. Methods: C57BL/6J mice were used in the following experiments: (1) determination of AAII content in 3 commonly used Aristolochia medicinal materials via liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry/mass spectrometry; (2) acute toxicity testing with single doses of 10, 20, or 40 mg/kg; and (3) chronic exposure with 1 or 10 mg/kg administered every other day for 24 weeks, followed by 21 to 40 weeks of postexposure monitoring. Histopathological examination, whole-exome sequencing, biochemical assays, and micronucleus tests were performed to assess multi-organ damage, tumorigenesis, genomic mutation signatures, and direct clastogenicity. Phytochemical analyses were used to evaluate environmental distribution. Results: (1) A single 40 mg/kg dose of AAII induced dose-dependent renal tubular degeneration without hepatotoxicity; (2) the 10 mg/kg group showed significant mortality (20%), tumor incidence (33.3%, primarily forestomach and bladder transitional cell carcinomas), persistent renal interstitial fibrosis, and subclinical hepatic injury. Chronic exposure to 1 mg/kg still induced 13.3% mortality and 15.5% tumor incidence over a 64-week period; (3) whole-exome sequencing revealed a predominance of C>T mutations and pathway enrichment in chemical carcinogenesis and cytochrome P450-mediated metabolism, indicating reactive metabolite-driven mechanisms distinct from classical AA-DNA adducts; and (4) no histopathological changes were observed in nontarget organs (brain, heart, and testes), and micronucleus assays confirmed the absence of direct clastogenicity. Conclusion: This study highlights the delayed carcinogenic risks of low-dose chronic AAII exposure and emphasizes the need to update regulatory frameworks to ensure the safe use of aristolochiaceae-containing herbal products.

Objective:To evaluate the feasibility and safety of open ventilation masks in patients with proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) undergoing vitrectomy under local anesthesia.Methods:A randomized clinical trial was conducted.Eighty PDR patients (80 eyes) undergoing vitrectomy with local anesthesia were enrolled at Xuzhou Municipal Hospital from May to July 2024.Patients were randomly divided into an experimental group and a control group using a random number table method, with 40 cases (40 eyes) in each group.The experimental group received oxygen through an ophthalmic surgical open ventilation mask during the operation, while the control group used a traditional nasal cannula.The respiratory rate, heart rate, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, and oxygen saturation before and after oxygen inhalation during the operation were compared between the two groups.Patient comfort level, airway patency, anxiety status, satisfaction level, operation time, surgical success rate, and incidence of intraoperative complications were also compared.This study adhered to the Declaration of Helsinki and the study protocol was appreed by the Ethics Committee of Xuzhou Municipal Hospital (No.2024-KY-065).Results:After oxygen inhalation during the operation, improvements in respiratory rate, heart rate, and oxygen saturation were greater in the experimental group than in the control group, with statistically significant differences ( t=4.671, 7.894, 1.588; all P<0.05).The Borg, and Hamilton Anxiety Scale scores were lower in the experimental group than in the control group, with statistically significant differences ( t=2.828, 4.880; both P<0.05), while the Bruggrmann Comfort Scale score was higher than that in the control group ( t=2.774, P<0.05).There were no statistically significant differences in operation time, surgical success rate or incidence of complications between the two groups ( t=0.595, P=0.554; χ2=0.346, 0.263; both P>0.05).Satisfaction rate of patients in the experimental group was 97.5%(39/40), which was higher than 85.0%(34/40) in the control group, with a statistically significant difference ( χ2=3.914, P=0.048). Conclusions:For PDR patients undergoing vitreous surgery under local anesthesia, using an ophthalmic surgical open ventilation mask for oxygen inhalation can effectively enhance respiratory comfort level, alleviate anxiety, maintain stable vital signs, improve overall comfort level, and ensure smooth surgery, without observed adverse reactions related to mask use, which makes it worthy of clinical promotion and application.

ObjectiveBased on ultra performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole-time-of-flight mass spectrometry（UPLC-Q-TOF-MS^E） technique， we identified qualitatively the metabolites of aristolochic acid（AAs） in rat in order to analyze the metabolic differences between water extract of Aristolochiae fructus（AFE） and Aristolochic acid Ⅰ（AAⅠ）. MethodSD rats were selected and administered AFE（110 g·kg^-1·d^-1） or AAⅠ（5 mg·kg^-1·d^-1） by oral for 5 days， respectively. Serum， urine and feces were collected after administration. Through sample pretreatment， ACQUITY UPLC BEH C₁₈ column（2.1 mm×100 mm， 1.7 μm） was used with the mobile phase of 0.01% formic acid methanol（A）-0.01% formic acid water（B， containing 5 mmol·L^-1 ammonium acetate） for gradient elution（0-1 min， 10%B； 1-7 min， 10%-75%B； 7-7.2 min， 75%-95%B； 7.2-10.2 min， 95%B； 10.2-10.3 min， 95%-10%B； 10.3-12 min， 10%B） at a flow rate of 0.3 mL·min^-1. Positive ion mode of electrospray ionization（ESI⁺） was performed in the scanning range of m/z 100-1 200. In combination with UNIFI 1.9.4.053 system， the Pathway-MS^E was used to qualitatively analyze and identify the AAs prototype and related metabolites in biological samples（serum， urine and feces）， and to compare the similarities and differences of metabolites in rats in the subacute toxicity test between AFE group and AAⅠ group. ResultCompared with AAⅠ group， 6， 10， 13 common metabolites and 14， 20， 30 unique metabolites were identified in biological samples（serum， urine and feces） of AFE group， respectively. Moreover， the main AAs components always followed the metabolic processes of demethylation， nitrate reduction and conjugation. Compared with common metabolites in AAⅠ group， prototype components of AAⅠ in serum and most metabolic derivatives of AAⅠ［AAⅠa， aristolochic lactam Ⅰ（ALⅠ）a， 7-OHALⅠ and its conjugated derivatives］ in biological samples were significantly increased in AFE group（P<0.05， P<0.01）， except that the metabolic amount of ALⅠ in feces of AFE group was remarkably lowed than that of AAⅠ group（P<0.01）. In addition， a variety of special ALⅠ efflux derivatives were also identified in the urine and feces of the AFE group. ConclusionAlthough major AAs components in AFE all show similar metabolic rules as AAⅠ components in vivo， the coexistence of multiple AAs components in Aristolochiae Fructus may affect the metabolism of AAⅠ， and achieve the attenuating effect by increasing the metabolic effection of AAⅠ and ALⅠ.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of oral anisodine hydrobromide tablets in the treatment of nonarteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (NAION).Methods:A multicenter nonrandomized controlled trial was conducted.A total of 282 acute NAION patients (282 eyes) were recruited from 16 hospitals in China from July 2020 to May 2021.Patients were divided into two groups according to treatment methods, which were control group (124 cases, 124 eyes) receiving regular treatment including citicoline sodium plus Ginkgo biloba leaf liquid extract or Ginkgo biloba leaf extract tablets plus mecobalamin, and experimental group (158 cases, 158 eyes) receiving treatment in control group plus oral anisodine hydrobromide tablets 1 mg, twice daily for 2 to 3 months.Best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), visual field index (VFI), peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer (pRNFL) and radial peripapillary capillary vessel density (RPC) were assessed at 1, 2, 3, and 6 months after enrollment using the standard decimal visual acuity chart, 750i Humphery visual field analyzer, Cirrus HD-OCT 4000/Cirrus HD-OCT 5000, RTVue-XR optical coherence tomography respectively.The primary outcomes were BCVA and VFI, and the secondary outcomes were pRNFL, RPC, and the side effects during the follow-up.The study adhered to the Declaration of Helsinki.All patients were fully informed about the treatment and purpose of this study and voluntarily signed the informed consent form.The study protocol was approved by Chinese PLA General Hospital (No.S2020-021-01). Results:In all, 242 patients (242 eyes) completed the follow-up of BCVA, and 98 patients (98 eyes) completed the VFI follow-up.In terms of visual function, BCVA and VFI improved significantly over time in the two groups, and BCVA and VFI were better in experimental group than in control group at various follow-up time points (all at P<0.05). In terms of structure, pRNFL gradually decreased in both groups with the extension of treatment, and pRNFL was significanthy thinner in experimental group than in control group at various follow-up time points (all at P<0.05). There was no significant difference in RPC between the two groups at the last follow-up ( P>0.05). There were two cases with side effects and one case was discontinued due to side effects 25 days after enrollment. Conclusions:Oral anisodine hydrobromide can improve visual acuity and visual field in NAION and accelerate the regression of optic disc edema, with good safety.
