Objective:To explore the effectiveness of LEARNS model combined with video health education in patients undergoing painless gastrointestinal endoscopy.Methods:From February 2021 to November 2022, convenience sampling was used to select 128 patients who underwent painless gastrointestinal endoscopy at the Endoscopy Center of Affiliated Hospital of Shaoxing University as research subjects. A total of 64 patients admitted from February to December 2021 served as control group, while 64 patients admitted from January to November 2022 served as observation group. Control group patients received routine health education, while observation group was treated with LEARNS model combined with video health education on the basis of control group. The degree of cooperation, psychological state, and satisfaction with health education were compared between two groups of patients.Results:The proportion of patients in observation group who actively cooperated was higher than that in control group, and there was a statistically significant difference in the degree of cooperation between the two groups ( P<0.05). Thirty minutes before and after the endoscopy, the scores of both subscales of the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) in observation group were lower than those in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). The satisfaction scores of observation group patients with health education in all dimensions were higher than those of control group, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:LEARNS model combined with video health education can effectively improve the cooperation of patients undergoing painless gastrointestinal endoscopy, alleviate their pre-examination anxiety, and enhance their satisfaction with health education, which is worthy of clinical practice.

China Pharmacy 2024;35(21):2577-2581
OBJECTIVE To provide a reference for improving the drug patent linkage system. METHODS Data on drug names, drug types, abbreviated new drug application (ANDA) acceptance numbers, registration classifications, and applicant names were obtained from the patent certifications and patent information disclosure modules of China’s patent information registration platform for marketed drugs. The data collection period was from July 4, 2021, to September 30, 2023. The analysis focused on the annual distribution of patent certifications for the ANDA varieties included in the statistics, the proportion of different registration classifications, the details of the type Ⅳ certifications, the remaining validity periods of the corresponding patents for the type Ⅲ certifications, and the number of manufacturers for the same variety. RESULTS Among the ANDA varieties analyzed, type Ⅰ certifications predominated (accounting for 86.53%), while types Ⅱ, Ⅲ and Ⅳ certifications each accounted for approximately 4% to 5%. In the three registration classifications, type Ⅰ certifications in registration classification 3 accounted for as high as 98.55%, and in registration classification 4, type Ⅰ certifications accounted for 79.65%, while types Ⅱ, Ⅲ and Ⅳ certifications each accounted for around 7%. In terms of the detailed type of the Ⅳ certifications, type Ⅳ of article 2 certifications had a large proportion (79.23%) and showed a slight upward trend, whereas the challenges of type Ⅳ of article 1 certifications were few. The remaining validity period of the patents corresponding to type Ⅲ certifications was excessively long, with a median of 18 months. The proportion of the same variety with fewer than 5 manufacturers was 36.44%, while those with more than or equal to 20 manufacturers accounted for 14.75%. CONCLUSIONS The ANDA system in China has been orderly integrated with the drug patent linkage system in practice. It is recommended to optimize aspects such as patent certifications registration and objection mechanisms, the effective approval dates for ANDA with type Ⅲ certifications, and incentive measures for type Ⅳ of article 1 certifications, thereby further standardizing the ANDA process and guiding the high-quality development of generic drugs.

Objective:To investigate the risk factors of postoperative recurrence in patients with primary brain glioma and to construct a prediction model.Methods:A total of 98 patients with primary brain glioma treated by radical surgery in Nanchong Central Hospital from January 2018 to January 2021 were retrospectively included, and were divided into recurrent group (40 cases) and non-recurrent group (58 cases) according to whether there was recurrence or not during the follow-up period. The independent influencing factors for postoperative recurrence in patients with primary brain glioma were evaluated by multivariate logistic regression. Logistic prediction model of postoperative recurrence risk of patients with primary brain glioma was established, and the predictive efficacy of each index was calculated by receiver operator characteristic (ROC) curve.Results:There were statistically significant differences between recurrent group and non-recurrent group in glioma World Health Organization (WHO) grade ( χ2=12.48, P<0.001), isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) 1/2 mutation ( χ2=13.24, P<0.001), mean platelet volume (MPV) ( t=5.34, P<0.001), and MPV/platelet count (PLT) ( t=9.73, P<0.001). Multivariate analysis showed that WHO grade Ⅲ-Ⅳ ( OR=8.54, 95% CI: 1.62-44.99, P=0.011), IDH1/2 wild type ( OR=9.08, 95% CI: 1.68-49.19, P=0.010), low MPV ( OR=0.46, 95% CI: 0.21-0.99, P=0.048) and low MPV/PLT ( OR=0.02, 95% CI: 0.01-0.03, P<0.001) were independent risk factors for postoperative recurrence in patients with primary brain glioma. The logistic prediction model based on the above indicators was logit ( P) =11.78+2.15×WHO grade+2.21×IDH1/2 mutation situation-0.78×MPV-200.70×MPV/PLT ( R2=0.785). The ROC curve analysis results showed that WHO grade, IDH1/2 mutation, MPV, MPV/PLT, and logistic prediction model P-value could all be used to predict the risk of postoperative recurrence in patients with primary brain glioma; The areas under the curve were 0.681, 0.684, 0.783, 0.920 and 0.964, respectively. In the area under ROC curve comparison of each indicator, the predictive performance of the logistic regression model P-value was significantly higher than that of other indicators (all P<0.05) . Conclusion:Postoperative recurrence in patients with primary brain glioma may be related to glioma WHO grade, IDH1/2 mutation and platelet related laboratory indexes. The model constructed based on the above indicators can be used to predict the recurrence risk in patients with primary brain glioma after surgery.

ObjectiveTo observe the spontaneous testicular tumors in interferon receptor-deficient mice (AG129) and provide a basis for further research using this mouse strain. MethodsThe AG129 mouse population was bred in an SPF barrier environment and reproduced normally. Among the 3-week-old weaned mice, we found that one male mouse had an abnormally enlarged testis, while none of the other mice in the same litter exhibited a similar condition. The spontaneous testicular tumor in this mouse was continuously monitored. The mouse was euthanized and dissected at 9 weeks of age. The gross morphology of the tumor was observed, and the tissue was then embedded in paraffin and sectioned for hematoxylin and eosin (HE) staining. ResultsAfter several weeks of observation, the tumor tissue gradually increased in size as the mice aged. Upon dissection, the tumor tissue was encapsulated in a smooth capsule. After opening the capsule, the tumor tissue was irregular in shape, with some areas being hard and others soft. The results of HE staining showed that the tumor tissue developed from tissues derived from multiple germ layers, with nerve tissue, bone tissue, muscle tissue, and adipose tissue inside, exhibiting an irregular morphological structure. ConclusionBased on the tumor development, gross morphological structure, and the HE staining results of the pathological sections, the tumor in this mouse was preliminarily diagnosed as an immature teratoma.

Objective:To compare the accuracy and efficacy of robot assisted and navigation assisted pedicle screw fixation.Methods:Retrospective analysis of 764 patients with lumbar spine disorders who underwent internal fixation treatment at the Department of Spine Surgery, Honghui Hospital, Xi'an Jiaotong University, from June 2017 to April 2023 were performed. They were divided into the Renaissance group (212 cases), the Tinavi group (301 cases), and the S8 navigation group (251 cases), according to the method of assisted placement of pedicle screws. The operation time, fluoroscopy time, X-ray radiation dose, intra-operative blood loss, accuracy of screw placement, screw revision rate, pain visual analogue scale (VAS), Oswestry disability index (ODI) and postoperative infection rate were compared among the three groups.Results:922 screws were placed in the Renaissance group, 1,260 screws in the Tinavi group, and 1,044 screws in the S8 navigation group. The accuracy of clinically acceptable pedicle screw placement was 92.08% (849/922), 99.68% (1,256/1,260), and 99.43% (1,038/1,044) in the three groups, respectively, with the Renaissance group being smaller than the Tinavi group and the S8 group (χ 2=90.334, P<0.001; χ 2=68.446, P<0.001), and the Tinavi group and the S8 group had no statistically significant difference (χ 2=0.380, P=0.537). The operation time of the three groups was 173.64±62.23 min, 177.11±60.85 min, 176.02±60.93 min, and the intraoperative blood loss was 118.16±58.26 ml, 121.84±55.91 ml, 123.62±59.84 ml, respectively, and the differences between the groups were not statistically significant ( P>0.05). The fluoroscopy time of the three groups was 8.73±2.92 s, 10.67±2.85 s, and 11.31±2.89 s, and the X-ray radiation doses were 18.83±7.41 μSv, 20.40±7.60 μSv, and 22.88±7.47 μSv, respectively, with statistically significant differences between the groups and the two comparisons ( P<0.05). All patients were given follow-up for 3-30 months. Three cases in the postoperative Renaissance group underwent screw revision for nerve root irritation due to screw penetration of the pedicle cortex, and none of the other two groups underwent screw revision. Postoperatively, one case in the Renaissance group and one case in the Tinavi group had superficial infections, which were cured after prolonged antibiotic use. At 3 months postoperatively, the VAS scores for leg pain in the Renaissance group, the Tinavi group, and the S8 navigation group were 3.52±1.14, 3.59±1.12, and 3.39±1.16, and the VAS scores for back pain were 3.54±1.14, 3.57±1.12, and 3.51±1.15, respectively; the ODI scores were 12.48%±4.53%, 12.01%±4.57%, and 12.28%±4.60%, and none of the differences between the groups were statistically significant ( P>0.05). Conclusion:The accuracy of screw placement by the Tinavi robot was comparable to that of the S8 navigation, and both were superior to that of the Renaissance robot; the fluoroscopy time and radiation dose of the Renaissance robot were smaller than those of the Tinavi robot, which was smaller than that of the S8 navigation. The early efficacy of robotics and navigation-assisted pedicle screw internal fixation for lumbar spine disorders is similar.
