Health economics evidence plays an important role in linking clinical value evidence with health resource allocation decisions in the development of clinical practice guidelines. It can not only effectively balance clinical effectiveness and economic feasibility but also avoid forming "idealized" recommendations that are detached from the affordability of the healthcare system or the burden-bearing capacity of patients. To promote guideline developers to use health economics evidence more standardizedly and fully, this paper conducts an in-depth analysis of the current application status, existing challenges, access channels, and application processes of health economics evidence in current guidelines, and on this basis, puts forward considerations and suggestions for strengthening and standardizing the application of health economics evidence in China's clinical practice guidelines.

BACKGROUND:Multiple observational studies have suggested a potential association between telomere length and musculoskeletal diseases.However,the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the genetic causal relationship between telomere length and musculoskeletal diseases using two-sample Mendelian randomization analysis. METHODS:Genome-wide association study summary data of telomere length were obtained from the UK Biobank.Genome-wide association study summary data of 10 common musculoskeletal diseases(osteonecrosis,osteomyelitis,osteoporosis,rheumatoid arthritis,low back pain,spinal stenosis,gout,scapulohumeral periarthritis,ankylosing spondylitis and deep venous thrombosis of lower limbs)were obtained from the FinnGen consortium.Inverse variance weighting,Mendelian randomization-Egger and weighted median methods were used to evaluate the causal relationship between telomere length and 10 musculoskeletal diseases.Inverse variance weighting was the primary Mendelian randomization analysis method,and sensitivity analysis was performed to explore the robustness of the results. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Inverse variance-weighted results indicated a negative causal relationship between genetically predicted telomere length and rheumatoid arthritis(odds ratio=0.78,95%confidence interval:0.64-0.95,P=0.015)and osteonecrosis(odds ratio=0.56,95%confidence interval:0.36-0.90,P=0.016).No causal relationship was found between telomere length and the other eight musculoskeletal diseases(all P>0.05).(2)Sensitivity analysis affirmed the robustness of these causal relationships,and Mendelian randomization-Egger intercept analysis found no evidence of potential horizontal pleiotropy(all P>0.05).(3)This Mendelian randomized study supports that telomere length has protective effects against rheumatoid arthritis and osteonecrosis.However,more basic and clinical research will be needed to support our findings in the future.

AIM:To investigate whether melatonin can ameliorate acute myocardial infarction(AMI)by in-hibiting ferroptosis.METHODS:H9C2 cells were cultured in AnaeroPack system with low sugar and serum-free medium for 10 h to construct a cell model of AMI.Then cells were treated with melatonin and ferroptosis inducer erastin.The cell activity,reactive oxygen species(ROS),lipid peroxidation,mitochondrial membrane potential(MMP),and ferroptosis related protein expression were detected.A rat model of AMI induced by isoprenaline(ISO)injection was established to evaluate the effects of melatonin,in which the myocardial infarction size,cardiac injury,pathological changes,oxidative stress,iron ion and ferroptosis related protein expression were examined.RESULTS:Melatonin decreased the oxidative stress,lipid peroxidation and expression of ferroptosis protein in cardiomyocytes induced by hypoxia,but these effects could be impeded by the ferroptosis inducer erastin.Furthermore,in vivo experiments,we also found that melatonin im-proved the myocardial infarction size,cardiac injury,pathological changes,oxidative stress,and alleviated iron ion accu-mulation and ferroptosis.CONCLUSION:The cardioprotective effects of melatonin in AMI are associated with the inhi-bition of ferroptosis.

Objective:To investigate the effect of ginkgolide B(GB)on astrocyte(AST)phagocytosis of myelin debris,and to investigate the mechanism of this functional therapy to demyelination by targeting AST.Methods:In vitro culture of AST,and divided AST into three groups:Control group,Myelin debris(Debris)group and Debris+GB group,incubed them in a constant temperature CO2 cell culture incubator for 24 hours,and then detected relevant indicators to observe the effect of GB on AST on phagocytic myelin debris.Results:Compared to the phagocytosis of myelin debris by primary AST,GB could effectively promote the phagocytosis by AST and show enhanced ABCA-1 expression(both P<0.05).Phagocytosis of myelin debris had no effect on the secretion of inflammatory cytokines by in vitro cultured AST.Debris+GB increased the expressions of neurotrophic CNTF and B-FGF compared to Debris(both P<0.05).Furthermore,Debris+GB decreased Bax and Caspase-3,while increased Bcl-2 expression(all P<0.05).Conclusion:GB can promote the phagocytosis of myelin debris by AST,which may be related to the upregulation of ABCA-1.Meanwhile,phagocytosis of myelin debris by AST increases the expression of the neurotrophic factors and the inhibits the apoptosis of AST themselves.

Objective To investigate immune characteristics of non-responsive macrolide-resistant Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia(MPP)and macrolide-susceptible Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia(MSMPP),and the clinical significance of serum Mycoplasma pneumonia DNA load and NK cell count in the course of disease were evaluated.Methods A total of 120 MPP patients hospitalized at Hangzhou Children's Hospital from August 2022 to August 2023 were selected as subjects,they were divided into MSMPP group(n=36)and macrolide-unresponsive MPP(MUMPP)group(n=84)based on whether they were effective within 72h of using macrolide antibiotics.Compare various indicators levels in the first 6 hours after admission between two groups.Multivariate analysis of variance was used for independent risk factors and receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve analysis was used for diagnostic performance.Results CD4+T,NK,and lgMP-DNA were independent risk factors for predicting whether MPP patients were MUMPP.The area under ROC curve for CD4+T,NK,lgMP-DNA,NK+CD4+T,lgMP-DNA+CD4+T,and lgMP-DNA+NK were 0.684,0.753,0.728,0.803,0.779,and 0.813,respectively.Conclusion Decreased peripheral blood NK cells and high MP-DNA load are important clinical features of drug-resistant Mycoplasma pneumonia,and combined detection can provide important clinical value for subsequent diagnosis and treatment.

Objective To investigate the status of management of iodinated contrast media(ICM)extravasation in Henan Province,as well as nurses' knowledge and influencing factors,in order to provide a basis for optimizing management strategies.Methods A self-designed questionnaire was applied,employing convenience sampling,to survey nursing administrators and nurses in the radiology departments of 55 tertiary hospitals across 16 regions of Henan Province,from December 2024 to January 2025.Multiple linear regression analysis was conducted to explore the factors influencing nurses' knowledge.Results A total of 55 nursing administrators and 64 nurses participated,with a valid questionnaire response rate of 100％.The survey results reveal that only 5.45％of radiology depart-ments utilized high-pressure central venous catheters,and 32.73％employed vascular visualization techniques.When setting the high-pressure injection speed for ICM,only 54.55％of radiology departments required an assessment of the type and model of intravenous access.Additionally,only 9.09％of radiology departments mandated an observa-tion for 2 to 4 hours following ICM extravasation.Furthermore,only 50.91％of radiology departments had estab-lished an information system for ICM use.The nurses' knowledge score regarding the prevention and management of ICM extravasation was(90.00±17.59),influenced by years of experience in radiology and professional titles(P＜0.05).Conclusion The prevention and management measures for ICM in radiology departments in Henan Province need further improvement.Nursing administrators should optimize management strategies,improve relevant training systems,and continuously enhance nurses' knowledge and practical abilities.
