Objective:To investigate the clinical features and prognosis of neuro-Beh?et′s syndrome (NBS) in children.Method:The clinical, brain magnetic resonance imaging and laboratory data of 5 children with NBS diagnosed in the Department of Pediatrics, General Hospital of Ningxia Medical University and Department of Rheumatology and Immunology, Children′s Hospital Affiliated to Capital Institute of Pediatrics from April 2014 to April 2024 were analyzed retrospectively. The follow-up method was retrospective outpatient or inpatient visit to evaluate the treatment effect of NBS.Result:Among the 5 NBS cases, 2 were male and 3 were female. The age of admission ranged from 8 to 17 years, the time from onset to diagnosis was 2 days to 4 years. Two patients had dizziness, headache and convulsions during the treatment of NBS, 1 patient had disturbance of consciousness, 1 patient gradually developed aphasia, limb movement disorder, dysphagia and muscle weakness after 4 years of Behcet's syndrome, and 1 patient had no clinical symptoms. C-reactive protein and erythrocyte sedimentation rate were increased in 4 cases, and cerebrospinal fluid white blood cells and immunoglobulin G were increased in 1 case. Brain magnetic resonance imaging of 4 children showed multiple lesions, including bilateral frontal lobe, occipital lobe, parietal lobe, periventricular and corpus callosum lesions. Brain magnetic resonance imaging showed multiple demyelinating diseases in 1 case, and cervical and thoracic magnetic resonance imaging showed slender cervical and thoracic spinal cord. All patients were treated with corticosteroids combined with immunosuppressants or biological agents. The children were followed up for 6 months to 4 years, and 4 cases had good treatment results, and 1 case finally gave up treatment.Conclusions:The clinical manifestations of NBS are not specific, and brain magnetic resonance imaging shows that the lesion location and morphology are not specific. NBS children treated with corticosteroids combined with immunosuppressive agents or biological agents have a good prognosis.

Objective: To analyze the distribution characteristics of immunoglobulin A (IgA) concentration in Nanning Zhuang blood donors by measuring the concentration of plasma IgA. Methods: Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was performed to measure the absorbance of 2 000 plasma samples from Zhuang blood donors. The IgA concentration in samples was calculated using the ELISA Calc regression/fitting technology program. Results: The standard curve demonstrated that ELISA detection of plasma IgA concentration exhibited good precision. The frequency of IgA deficiency was 0/2 000. No statistically significant difference in the distribution of IgA concentration was observed between males and females (P>0.05). The distribution of IgA concentration varied significantly across age groups: younger individuals (18-39 years old) had lower plasma IgA levels (mg/dL) compared to older individuals (40-56 years old): 5-89.99 mg/dL group, 8.80% (176/2 000) vs 17.20% (344/2 000); 90-450 mg/dL group,20.65% (413/2 000) vs 51.20% (1 024/2 000); >450 mg/dL group, 0.45%, (9/2 000) vs 1.70% (34/2 000), P<0.05. No significant difference in IgA concentration was found among different ABO blood types in Zhuang blood donors (P>0.05). Spearman correlation analysis revealed a positive correlation between age and IgA concentration (R =0.114, P<0.05). Conclusion: No individuals with IgA deficiency were screened out among the Zhuang blood donors in Nanning area, and plasma IgA levels progressively increase with age.

Although symptomatic treatment is widely applied in clinical practice， it is often regarded as a relatively low-level therapeutic method. Based on Traditional Chinese Medicine （TCM） state theory， the macroscopic， mesoscopic， and microscopic characterization parameters of TCM symptomatology are horizontally integrated， the full life cycle of states （pre-disease， incipient disease， manifest disease， post-disease） is vertically covered， and the cognitive system of "symptoms" is reconstructed from multiple dimensions. Accordingly， the application approach of symptomatic treatment at different state stages is proposed： implementing preventive intervention in the pre-disease state， strengthening the interception of disease progression in the incipient disease state， regulating dynamic development and treatment in the manifest disease state， and formulating a staged diagnosis and treatment strategy which focuses on functional rehabilitation in the post-disease state.

Objective:To explore the influence of social exclusion on the relapse tendency of female drug re-hab patients,and the mediating role of self-esteem and the moderating role of positive psychological capital.Method:A total of 288 female drug rehabilitation patients were selected,and the Social Exclusion Question-naire(SEQ)was used to assess the degree of social exclusion experienced by the patients.The Relapse Tendency Questionnaire(RPQ)was used to evaluate the current tendency of drug relapse.The Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale(RSES)was used to evaluate the self-esteem level of the patients,and the Positive Psychological Capital Question-naire(PPCQ)was used to evaluate their level of positive psychological capital.Results:The SEQ scores of female drug rehab patients were positively correlated with the RPQ scores(β=0.41,P＜0.001),The RSES scores had a mediating effect between the scores of SEQ and RPQ,with a mediation effect size of 0.09(95％CI:0.04-0.15,accounting for 20.6％of the total effect).The PPCQ scores had a moderating effect between the scores of RSES and RPQ(β=-0.08,P＜0.05)and between the scores of SEQ and RPQ(β=0.10,P＜0.05).Conclusion:So-cial exclusion could not only directly affect but also indirectly affect the relapse tendency through self-esteem of fe-male drug rehab patients.Positive psychological capital could moderate the relationship between social exclusion,self-esteem,and relapse tendency.

Objective:To compare the characteristics of background mucosa, lesion features, and the efficiency of endoscopic submucosal dissection(ESD)between elderly and non-elderly patients with early gastric cancer(EGC).Methods:This study retrospectively collected data on patients with EGC who underwent ESD treatment at Beijing Hospital from April 2020 to December 2022.The clinical characteristics, background mucosa, lesion features, ESD outcomes, and pathological results of the patients were analyzed to compare the differences between elderly and non-elderly patients.Results:A total of 100 patients with EGC were selected, comprising 57 patients in the elderly group and 43 patients in the non-elderly group, with a total of 111 lesions identified(64 lesions in the elderly group and 47 lesions in the non-elderly group).The proportion of patients with a history of chronic atrophic gastritis was significantly higher in the elderly group(89.5%、51/57)compared to the non-elderly group(74.4%、32/43), with a statistically significant difference( P=0.047).Additionally, the difference in the extent of atrophy between elderly patients with EGC and their non-elderly counterparts was statistically significant( P=0.022).Among these patients, the proportion of those classified as Kimura-Takemoto C0 to C1 in the elderly group(15.6%、10/64)was lower than that in the non-elderly group(40.4%、19/47).In contrast, the proportion of patients classified as C2 to C3 in the elderly group(65.6%、42/64)was higher than that in the non-elderly group(51.1%、24/47), and the proportion of those classified as O1 to O3 in elderly patients(12.5%、8/64)was also higher than in the non-elderly group(4.3%、2/47).Furthermore, the difference in the extent of intestinal metaplasia between elderly and non-elderly patients with early gastric cancer was statistically significant( P=0.007).The overall proportion of total intestinal metaplasia in elderly patients(85.9%、55/64)was significantly higher than that in non-elderly patients(61.7%、29/47).Notably, the proportion of patients exhibiting extensive intestinal metaplasia(intestinal metaplasia present in both the gastric antrum and gastric body)was greater in the elderly group(43.8%、28/64)compared to the non-elderly group(23.4%、11/47).The Kyoto gastric cancer risk endoscopic score for elderly patients with EGC was(2.43±1.28)points, significantly higher than that of the non-elderly group(1.72±1.41)points, with a statistically significant difference observed( t=2.778, P=0.006).No statistically significant differences were observed in the proportions of total resection rates, R0 resections, curative resections, or postoperative complications following ESD when comparing elderly patients with EGC to their non-elderly counterparts. Conclusions:The proportion of extensive atrophy and intestinal metaplasia was higher in the background mucosa of elderly patients with EGC, and correspondingly, the Kyoto endoscopic gastric cancer risk score was elevated.Therefore, endoscopic examinations for elderly patients with chronic atrophic gastritis should be conducted with greater care and comprehensiveness.

Objective To explore the teaching effect of case-integrated scenario simulation instruction model on proba-tionary instruction of acute upper gastrointestinal bleeding.Methods A total of 40 medical students of grade 2021 majoring in clinical medicine,namely,Nanshan Class,from Guangzhou Medical University were selected as participants.The students were randomly divided into two groups,with 22 as an experimental group and 18 as a control group.The former group received the case-integrated based scenario simulation teaching model,while the latter adopted the traditional bedside teaching model.The teaching content was on acute non-variceal upper gastrointestinal bleeding.Results There was no statistically significant differ-ence in the total score of gastroenterology between the experimental group and the control group(P＞0.05).The experimental group scored significantly higher in the gastrointestinal bleeding-related contents compared to the control group(P＜0.05).The post-class survey revealed that the majority of the students in the research group expressed their high-level satisfaction with the new instruction model and demonstrated their greater interests in participation in the new instruction model.Conclusion The case-integrated scenario simulation instruction model demonstrates significant superiority to the traditional bedside teaching model in terms of stimulating learning interests,cultivating medical professionalism,and enlivening classroom atmosphere.It is suitable for practical teaching in gastroenterology and can be widely adopted as routine probationary teaching for undergraduate students.

Objective To evaluate the process risk of the implementation of prevention and control measures for surgical site infection(SSI)after colorectal surgery,and explore the application effect of failure mode and effects analysis(FMEA)based on action priority.Methods FMEA based on action priority was adopted to evaluate the whole process of the implementation of prevention and control measures for SSI after colorectal surgery.Prioritiza-tion ranking was conducted according to whether optimized measures were taken.Standard-reaching rate of comp-liance to SSI prevention and control measures as well as SSI incidence before and after the implementation of FMEA were compared.Results After evaluation,there were 7 high-priority and 22 medium-priority prevention and control measures for SSI.The control of medium-priority measures was strengthened,with a focus on developing further preventive and detectable measures for high-priority measures.The re-evaluation results after improvement showed that 7 high-priority measures have been downgraded to medium priority,and 16 medium-priority measures have been downgraded to low priority.Standard-reaching rate of compliance to SSI prevention and control measures in-creased from 77.15％(2 566/3 326)to 92.47％(3 096/3 348),and SSI incidence decreased from 6.04％(58/960)to 2.54％(60/2 364).Conclusion Application of FMEA based on action priority can effectively evaluate the risk of prevention and control process of SSI after colorectal surgery,and adopting preventive risk control measures accord-ing to the current situation can reduce the incidence of SSI after colorectal surgery.

As the window of the hospital,the emergency department's medical quality determines the medical quality of the entire hospital.Emergency medical safety is the key to hospital construction.However,due to problems such as staffing and medical technology in the department of emergency of Chinese Medicine Hospitals,the development of medical quality is highly unbalanced.Aiming at the medical safety problems in the department of emergency of Chinese Medicine Hospitals in our country,the department of emergency of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine analyzed the current situation at home and abroad,examined the causes of medical errors,and put forward suggestions for the reform of medical safety in the department of emergency of Chinese Medicine Hospitals.It is recommended to effectively reduce medical errors through a series of reform measures such as hardware transformation and upgrading,standardization of standard procedures,establishing a sound communication mechanism,and creating a safety culture.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.

BACKGROUND:Ferroptosis-mediated ischemia-reperfusion injury plays a crucial role in the occurrence and progression in pressure ulcers,and there may be pressure ulcer-associated ferroptosis biomarkers,but the mechanism has not been elucidated. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the molecular mechanisms underlying pressure ulcers using bioinformatic analysis,with a focus on identifying differentially expressed genes associated with ferroptosis during the process of pressure ulcer formation,thereby providing novel insights into the clinical treatment of pressure ulcers. METHODS:The single-cell transcriptome sequencing dataset and ferroptosis-related genes were obtained and preprocessed from the Gene Expression Omnibus(GEO)and FerrDb databases.We performed clustering and proportion analyses,metabolic activity and pseudotime analysis,cell communication analysis,ferroptosis gene set cell population identification,and enrichment analysis to determine differentially expressed genes related to ferroptosis.Animal experiments were then conducted for further validation,with 20 Sprague-Dawley rats randomly assigned into a control group and a model group(n=10 per group).The control group received no treatment,while the model group underwent a cycle of ischemia-reperfusion to establish pressure ulcer models.Changes in differentially expressed genes and proteins in the wound tissues of pressure ulcer rats were detected using fluorescent quantitative PCR and western blot,respectively. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The single-cell transcriptome sequencing data were clustered into six cell types,with a higher proportion of type 2 and type 3 keratinocytes observed in the pressure ulcer group.There was evident metabolic heterogeneity and evolutionary trajectory among cell populations.Type 2 and type 3 keratinocytes exhibited stronger cell communication,while type 2 keratinocytes demonstrating optimal ligand-receptor interactions.Type 2 keratinocytes demonstrated higher scores for ferroptosis,accompanied by significant upregulation or downregulation of specific genes.A total of 27 Gene Ontology enrichments,20 Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes enrichments,and 24 ferroptosis-related differentially expressed genes,including glutathione peroxidase 4(GPX4)and acyl-CoA synthetase long chain family member 4(ACSL4),were identified.Animal experiments further confirmed the downregulation of GPX4,the ferroptosis-inhibiting protein,and the upregulation of ACSL4,the ferroptosis-promoting protein,in the model group.Overall,these findings indicate the presence of ferroptosis in pressure ulcer tissue.GPX4 and ACSL4 are important genes regulating ferroptosis in pressure ulcer tissues.
