Objective:To summarize the best evidence for frailty management in patients undergoing postoperative chemotherapy for gastric cancer, so as to provide reference for alleviating patient frailty.Methods:Guidelines, expert consensus, evidence summaries, systematic reviews, and randomized controlled trials and other articles on the frailty management of patients with postoperative chemotherapy for gastric cancer were electronically searched in computerized decision-making systems such as UpToDate, BMJ Best Practice, and Guidelines International Network, in comprehensive databases such as PubMed, Embase, and Web of Science, and in the websites of professional societies. The search period was from database establishment to September 15, 2024. Two researchers independently screened the literature and evaluated the quality of the included literature, combining professional judgment to extract and summarize the best evidence.Results:A total of 18 papers were included, including two clinical decisions, one evidence summary, eight guidelines, two expert consensus, one systematic review, one randomized controlled trial, two quasi-experimental studies, and one observational study. The best evidence included a total of 34 pieces in seven aspects of comprehensive screening, nursing plan construction, preoperative prehabilitation, nutritional interventions, Chinese medicine interventions, exercise interventions, and psychological interventions for frailty.Conclusions:The summary of the best evidence for frailty management in patients undergoing postoperative chemotherapy for gastric cancer may provide an evidence-based basis for frailty interventions by clinical medical and staff.

Objective:To systematically evaluate patients' experience of receiving home parenteral nutrition (HPN) , and to provide a reference for improving patients' quality of life and developing relevant clinical nursing measures.Methods:Qualitative studies on patients' experiences, feelings and needs for HPN were electronically searched in PubMed, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, Embase, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wanfang Data, and VIP. The search period was from database establishment to April 1, 2024. Literature quality was evaluated using the quality evaluation criteria for qualitative research of the Joanna Briggs Institute Evidence-Based Health Care Center. The pooled Meta-synthesis was used to integrate the findings.Results:A total of 14 papers were included. Sixty-six themes were distilled and classified into nine categories, resulting in three integrated outcomes, namely, the differential emotional psychology, decreased life experience, and multidimensional unmet needs in HPN patients.Conclusions:Medical and nursing staff should pay attention to patients' psychological changes and life experience during HPN, understand patients' needs and implement interventions in a holistic and individualized manner, and strengthen monitoring and guidance.

Atrial fibrillation(AF)is one of the most common clinical arrhythmias and a significant risk factor for thromboembolism.The left atrial appendage(LAA)is the primary site of thrombus formation in AF patients.Recent studies have explored the mechanisms of LAA thrombosis from multiple dimensions,including anatomical structure(LAA morphology and architecture),functional indicators(hemodynamic alterations),pathophysiological mechanisms(endothelial injury,inflammatory activation),systemic diseases(renal dysfunction)and genetic factors(gene polymorphisms),providing critical evidence for precise clinical anticoagulation.This article systematically reviews the latest research advances in the mechanisms of LAA thrombosis in AF patients,aiming to offer theoretical support for the accurate assessment of thromboembolic risk and the formulation of individualized anticoagulation strategies.Additionally,it lays the foundation for exploring the intrinsic relationship and mechanisms between LAA hemodynamics and heart failure as well as thromboembolic events.

Objective To summarize the current status of outcome indicators in randomized controlled trials of TCM intervention in pediatric myocarditis,to explore the existing problems,and to provide a reference for the construction of a core set of indicators for the treatment of pediatric myocarditis with TCM.Methods Randomized controlled trial literature on the treatment of pediatric myocarditis with TCM was retrieved from CNKI,Wanfang Data,VIP,SinoMed,PubMed,Embase,Cochrane Library and Web of Science from the establishment of the databases to 16th,Nov.2024.The basic characteristics,diagnostic criteria,TCM evidence,interventions and outcome indicators of the studies were extracted.The risk of bias was assessed for the selected studies using the Cochrane Collaboration's risk of bias tool(RoB 2.0),and the outcome indicators were statistically analyzed using Excel 2019.Results Finally,totally of 250 articles were included in the literature.The outcome indicators were counted to obtain 187 outcome indicators with a cumulative total of 1 540 occurrences,which were categorized into six indicator domains:symptoms and signs,physicochemical testing,TCM symptoms/signs,clinical efficacy evaluation,safety evaluation and quality of life evaluation;among them,the physicochemical testing indicators(112 types,926 times)had the highest frequency of occurrences,followed by the clinical efficacy evaluation(13 types.340 times),and safety evaluation(24 types,193 times).Conclusion The overall quality of randomized controlled trials of TCM treatment of pediatric myocarditis is low,and there are problems with primary and secondary differentiation of outcome indicators and lack of TCM characteristics.There is an urgent need to improve the core set of endpoint indicators that highlight the characteristics of TCM in order to improve the quality of clinical research.

Coronary restenosis is an important cause of poor long-term prognosis in patients with coronary heart disease. Here, we show that lysine methyltransferase SMYD2 expression in the nucleus is significantly elevated in serum- and PDGF-BB-induced vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs), and in tissues of carotid artery injury-induced neointimal hyperplasia. Smyd2 overexpression in VSMCs (Smyd2-vTg) facilitates, but treatment with its specific inhibitor LLY-507 or SMYD2 knockdown significantly inhibits VSMC phenotypic switching and carotid artery injury-induced neointima formation in mice. Transcriptome sequencing revealed that SMYD2 knockdown represses the expression of serum response factor (SRF) target genes and that SRF overexpression largely reverses the inhibitory effect of SMYD2 knockdown on VSMC proliferation. HDAC3 directly interacts with and deacetylates SRF, which enhances SRF transcriptional activity in VSMCs. Moreover, SMYD2 promotes HDAC3 expression via tri-methylation of H3K36 at its promoter. RGFP966, a specific inhibitor of HDAC3, not only counteracts the pro-proliferation effect of SMYD2 overexpression on VSMCs, but also inhibits carotid artery injury-induced neointima formation in mice. HDAC3 partially abolishes the inhibitory effect of SMYD2 knockdown on VSMC proliferation in a deacetylase activity-dependent manner. Our results reveal that the SMYD2-HDAC3-SRF axis constitutes a novel and critical epigenetic mechanism that regulates VSMC phenotypic switching and neointimal hyperplasia.

Objective To find out the prevalence of antiretroviral therapy(ART)drugs among treponema pallidum(TP)antibody(anti-TP)positive blood donors in Shenzhen,and to assess the blood safety risks brought about by the new trends of human immunodeficiency virus(HIV)diagnosis and treatment.Methods A stratified random sampling method was used to select 60 repeat blood donors(negative control group)who passed blood screening in Shenzhen from March 2019 to January 2023,and 3 people who regularly took known ART drugs were named positive control group,358 anti-TP positive/anti-HIV negative blood do-nors were named experimental group 1,20 anti-TP positive/anti-HIV positive blood donors were named ex-perimental group 2.The liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry(HPLC-MS/MS)was applied to detect the concentration of 8 ART drugs in plasma samples of each group,and the use of ART drugs was analyzed.Re-sults After the positive control group's plasma was diluted with a 1:6 dilution mixture,the ART drugs could still be detected.The positive mixed plasma samples of 1:6 people in Group 1 and Group 2 were split and validation,one ART drug positive sample was detected in Group 2,which was positive for anti-HIV,pro-tein immunoblotting,and HIV RNA.The detection rate of ART drugs in anti-TP positive blood donors was 0.26%,0.00%in Group 1 and 4.00%in Group 2.Conclusion The use of ART drugs has been found among anti-TP positive blood donors in Shenzhen,and people with HIV infection and high-risk sexual behavior are more likely to use antiretroviral drugs.
