Objective To investigate the application effect of a bedside ultrasound-guided intestinal cleaning program in patients with severe acute pancreatitis.Methods A total of 51 patients with severe acute pancreatitis admitted to the ICU of a tertiary A hospital in Shandong from March to September 2023 were selected by convenience sampling method,and they were divided into an experimental group and a control group according to random number table method.The experimental group was given the bedside ultrasound-guided intestinal cleaning program,and the control group was given the routine intestinal cleaning program.Acute gastrointestinal injury ultrasonography score,the incidence of grade Ⅲ acute gastrointestinal injury and intra-abdominal pressure were compared between the 2 groups before intervention,on the 3rd and 5th day.Results There was an interaction effect between time and group in the comparison of acute gastrointestinal injury ultrasonography scores in the 2 groups(F=7.478,P<0.001);simple effect analysis showed that acute gastrointestinal injury ultrasonography scores in the experimental group were lower than those in control group on the 3rd and 5th day,with statistically significant differences(P<0.05).The incidence of grade Ⅲ acute gastrointestinal injury in the experimental group(23%)was lower than that in the control group(60%),with statistically significant differences(P<0.05).The intra-abdominal pressure had an interaction effect between the 2 groups(F=47.128,P<0.001);simple effect analysis showed that the intra-abdominal pressure in the experimental group was lower than that in the control group on the 3rd and 5th day,with statistically significant differences(P<0.05).Conclusion The bedside ultrasound-guided intestinal cleaning program can improve acute gastrointestinal injury and reduce intra-abdominal hypertension in patients with severe acute pancreatitis.

Objective To investigate the correlation of neutrophil to high-density lipoprotein cho-lesterol ratio(NHR)and lipoprotein(a)[Lp(a)]with occurrence of acute ischemic stroke(AIS)in elderly patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation(NVAF).Methods A total of 301 elderly NVAF patients admitted to Hefei First People's Hospital from May 2020 to May 2023 were en-rolled,and according to whether they were combined with AIS or not,they were divided into stroke group(143 cases)and non-stroke group(158 cases).Binary logistic regression analysis was used to screen risk factors,and ROC curve was plotted to assess their predictive values for AIS.Results Lp(a)and NHR in stroke group were significantly higher than those in non-stroke group,the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.01).Multivariate binary logistic regression analysis showed that NHR and Lp(a)were independent risk factors for death with NVAF com-bined AIS(OR=1.728,95％CI:1.367-2.186,P=0.000;OR=1.005,95％CI:1.002-1.007,P=0.000);ROC curve analysis indicated that the AUC value of NHR and Lp(a)in diagnosing AIS in NVAF patients was 0.668 and 0.735,respectively,and that of their combination was 0.789,which was significantly higher than that of NHR and Lp(a)alone(P＜0.01).Conclusion NHR and Lp(a)are independently related to AIS in NVAF patients,and their combination has certain diagnos-tic efficacy.

Objective To explore the influencing factors of poor prognosis after clipping in patients with ruptured intracranial aneurysm and hematoma,and to construct a clinical prediction model.Methods A total of 151 patients with aneurysmal intracranial hematoma in Dongyang People's Hospital were selected from September 2017 to October 2023.3 months after operation,the patients were grouped by modified Rankin scale(mRS),with 93 cases in good prognosis group and 58 cases in poor prognosis group.Univariate analysis and multivariate Logistic regression analysis were used to explore the risk factors affecting the poor prognosis of patients with postoperative prognosis,and a poor prognostic prediction model for patients with intracranial aneurysm rupture and hematoma clamping was constructed,the discriminant validity of the area under the curve(AUC)was evaluated,and the fit of the model was established using the Hosmer-Lemeshow test.Results The Hunt-Hess gradeⅣ-Ⅴ(OR=5.339),modified Fisher grade Ⅲ-Ⅳ(OR=5.145),hematoma volume≥ 50ml(OR=7.426),hematoma clearance rate was≤50％(OR=8.381),size of the responsible aneurysm＞5mm(OR=3.053),operation time window＞5h(OR=2.659),and intraoperative vascular operation time＞3h(OR=2.305)were independent risk factors for poor prognosis after clipping in patients with intracranial aneurysm ruptured and intracranial hematoma(P＜0.05).The AUC of the poor prognosis prediction model of patients with intracranial aneurysm rupture with hematoma after clipping was 0.863(95％CI:0.781-0.946,P＜0.001),the specificity was 79.6％,the sensitivity was 86.2％,and the prediction accuracy was 82.1％.Hosmer-Lemeshow testx2=5.778,P=0.679,and there was no significant difference between the predicted value of the model and the actual observed value.Conclusion Hunt-Hess grade Ⅳ-Ⅴ,the modified Fisher grade Ⅲ-Ⅳ,hematoma volume≥50ml,hematoma clearance rate≤50％,responsible aneurysm size＞5mm,operation time window＞5h,and intraoperative vascular operation time＞3h were independent risk factors for poor prognosis after clipping in patients with intracranial aneurysm ruptured.The model constructed in this study has high predictive performance and can provide guidance for the treatment and postoperative recovery of patients undergoing craniotomy and clipping surgery in clinical practice.

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.

Hypoxia is the most common tumor microenvironment caused by rapid proliferation of tumor cells, and hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF) is the main transcription factor for tumor cells to adapt to hypoxia. Current research has found that HIF can interact with a variety of mesenchymal cells such as fibroblasts, endothelial cells and immune cells in the tumor microenvironment, leading to the transcription and expression of target genes in response to hypoxia, which ultimately promotes tumor angiogenesis, and induces physiological changes such as migration, invasion, and immune escape of tumor cells. However, the signaling pathways involved in the HIF regulatory mechanism are complex, and the mechanism of HIF in the tumor microenvironment need to be further investigated, also most HIF inhibitors are still in the preclinical research stage. This paper reviews the research progress on the effects of HIF on tumor mesenchymal stromal cells to provide a theoretical basis for the diagnosis, prevention and treatment of tumors targeting HIF.

AIM: To observe and analyze the effectiveness and safety of wearing corneal refractive therapy(CRT)and vision shaping treatment(VST)designed orthokeratology in controlling myopic progression in adolescents with low E-value corneal morphology.METHODS: This prospective study involved 100 cases(100 eyes)of adolescent myopia patients fitted with orthokeratology at our optometry clinic from January 2020 to December 2021. The data of right eye were collected for research, and they were divided into low myopia group(-1.00 to -3.00 D)and moderate myopia group(-3.25 to -5.00 D)according to spherical equivalent, with 50 cases in each group. Each group of patients was further randomly divided into the CRT group and the VST group, with 25 cases in each group. Uncorrected visual acuity, refractive error, axial length(AL), tear film break-up time(BUT), corneal endothelial cell density, corneal staining grading, lens decentration, and refractive power at 15°-30° were measured before and after wearing orthokeratology, with a follow-up duration of 1.5 a.RESULTS: The uncorrected visual acuity of CRT and VST subgroups in the low myopia group showed no statistical significance at any time point after wearing orthokeratology. However, in the moderate myopia group, CRT subgroup showed better uncorrected visual acuity than the VST subgroup, with significant differences at 1 d and 1 wk(t=-9.474, -12.067, both P<0.01); no significant differences were noted at other time points. After wearing lens for 6 mo and 1.5 a, the AL growth for the CRT subgroup in low and moderate myopia was less than the VST subgroup, with no statistically significant differences. There were no statistically significant differences in binocular BUT and corneal endothelial cell density after wearing lens for 6 mo and 1.5 a. Corneal injury was lower in the CRT subgroup than that in the VST subgroup, but the difference was not statistically significant(Z=-1.803, P=0.071). Lens decentration was significantly better in the CRT subgroup than in the VST subgroup(Z=-4.629, P<0.001). In the periphery of the retina at 15°-30°, there were no significant differences in the amount of myopic defocus between the two groups, while it was statistically significant at 1, 3, and 6 mo in the moderate myopia subgroup(t=-3.949, P=0.008; t=-5.833, P<0.001; t=-6.231, P<0.001), indicating that CRT subgroup could produce a greater amount of myopic defocus.CONCLUSION: For patients with low E-value corneal morphology, CRT, using the vector height at 8 mm on the cornea for fitting, is not limited to the corneal E-value. It shapes faster and improves uncorrected visual acuity after shaping, especially for moderate myopia, achieving better daytime vision. In terms of controlling myopia, CRT fitting elevates return zone depth(RZD), creating a small central optical zone to produce more peripheral myopic defocus. However, there was no significant difference between the two groups in controlling AL growth. Both groups showed minimal corneal damage, indicating consistent safety in myopia control.

Objective:To analyze the dental phenotypes of patients with EDA genovariation related selective tooth agenesis.Meth-ods:We summarized the selective tooth agenesis patients with EDA genovariation,based on literature published before April 2023.The literature search was conducted using PubMed and multiple Chinese databases.The total number and the percentages of missing teeth were analyzed.The dental phenotype between male and female patients were compared.Results:EDA related selective tooth a-genesis mainly affects mandibular incisors(47.7％),mandibular and maxillary lateral incisors(41.6％and 40.1％respectively),while molars are seldom affected.Additionally,male patients were more affected than female and have more missing teeth.Conclusion:Dental phenotype analysis of EDA variants might contribute to precise prediction of causative genes from phenotype of missing teeth and guide for genetic counseling.

BACKGROUND:After the internal fixation of cannulated screws in femoral neck fractures,because the affected limb is often unable to bear weight in the short term and the implants with high stiffness have a stress shielding effect on the fracture end,it is easy to cause osteoporosis of the affected limb and changes in the biomechanical distribution of the proximal femur,the incidence of osteonecrosis of the femoral head is high after surgery.At present,few studies have been conducted on the biomechanical effects of osteoporosis at the proximal end of the femur occurring after femoral neck fracture surgery on femoral neck fracture treated with cannulated screws. OBJECTIVE:Using finite element analysis,to investigate the biomechanical effects of osteoporosis occurring after femoral neck fracture surgery on femoral neck fracture treated with cannulated screws and explore the role of biomechanical factors in osteonecrosis of the femoral head. METHODS:Based on the obtained CT scan data of the femur in a patient with a femoral neck fracture,a proximal femoral model for internal fixation for femoral neck fracture was established by Mimics 19.0,3-Matic,UG 11.0,Hypermesh 14.0,and Abaqus software.One finite element model of the proximal femur without osteoporosis and three finite element models of the proximal femur with osteoporosis were analyzed using Abaqus software.The stress,contact pressure,displacement peak and cloud map under different components of the four models were measured and analyzed,and the internal stress changes and distribution of the femoral head were compared and analyzed. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The stresses and contact pressures of the femoral head and lower anterior cannulated screws varied more with the degree of osteoporosis.The peak displacement of the four models increased slowly with the degree of osteoporosis.By one-way analysis of variance,there was no significant effect of the degree of osteoporosis on the peak stress,contact pressure,and displacement of the different components.The internal stress distribution of the femoral head changed with the degree of osteoporosis.Changes in the biomechanical environment of the proximal femur have an important impact on osteonecrosis of the femoral head.

Objective To propose a family-centred health education program for family caregivers of Autistic children and investigate its clinical value.Methods Delphi method was used to establish a family-centred Autistic children care program for family caregivers looking after the Autistic children,which involved two rounds of expert consultation.The pre-and post-control method for different cases was employed in the study.Forty Autistic caregivers in our hospital from January 2022 to October 2022 were assigned to the control group and another 40 in our hospital from November 2022 to January 2023 were assigned to the observation group.The family caregivers of Autistic children in the control group received traditional care education,while those in the observation group was managed with the family-centred Autistic children health education program.The two groups were compared in terms of care burden,knowledge of health education,and evaluation of clinical symptom of Autistic children.Results The expert authority coefficient of the first round of expert consultation was 0.875 respectively and those in the second round was 0.900,respectively.The coefficient of variation of the coordination degree of each index was 0.04-0.20.Kendalls W scores of the two rounds were 0.794 and 0.786,respectively.A health education program for family-centred Autistic children caregiver was established to consist of three subjects:caregiver training,family-centred parental care and activation of positive emotions of autistic caregivers.Autism caregivers in both groups had completed the study.In comparison with the control group,the care burden of the observation group was significantly lower,the knowledge of health education was significantly higher,and the evaluation of children's clinical symptoms was better among the family caregivers of autistic children in the observation group(all P<0.05).Conclusions The family-centred autistic children care program for family caregivers is scientific and applicable.It is conducive to providing health education guidance for family caregivers of Autistic children,effectively reducing the care burden and enhancing the knowledge of health education.

Objective:To study the current status of longitudinal extrauterine growth restriction (EUGR) in extremely preterm infants (EPIs) and to develop a prediction model based on clinical data from multiple NICUs.Methods:From January 2017 to December 2018, EPIs admitted to 32 NICUs in North China were retrospectively studied. Their general conditions, nutritional support, complications during hospitalization and weight changes were reviewed. Weight loss between birth and discharge > 1SD was defined as longitudinal EUGR. The EPIs were assigned into longitudinal EUGR group and non-EUGR group and their nutritional support and weight changes were compared. The EPIs were randomly assigned into the training dataset and the validation dataset with a ratio of 7∶3. Univariate Cox regression analysis and multiple regression analysis were used in the training dataset to select the independent predictive factors. The best-fitting Nomogram model predicting longitudinal EUGR was established based on Akaike Information Criterion. The model was evaluated for discrimination efficacy, calibration and clinical decision curve analysis.Results:A total of 436 EPIs were included in this study, with a mean gestational age of (26.9±0.9) weeks and a birth weight of (989±171) g. The incidence of longitudinal EUGR was 82.3%(359/436). Seven variables (birth weight Z-score, weight loss, weight growth velocity, the proportion of breast milk ≥75% within 3 d before discharge, invasive mechanical ventilation ≥7 d, maternal antenatal corticosteroids use and bronchopulmonary dysplasia) were selected to establish the prediction model. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of the training dataset and the validation dataset were 0.870 (95% CI 0.820-0.920) and 0.879 (95% CI 0.815-0.942), suggesting good discrimination efficacy. The calibration curve indicated a good fit of the model ( P>0.05). The decision curve analysis showed positive net benefits at all thresholds. Conclusions:Currently, EPIs have a high incidence of longitudinal EUGR. The prediction model is helpful for early identification and intervention for EPIs with higher risks of longitudinal EUGR. It is necessary to expand the sample size and conduct prospective studies to optimize and validate the prediction model in the future.
