Clinical practice guidelines represent the best recommendations for patient care. They are developed through systematically reviewing currently available clinical evidence and weighing the relative benefits and risks of various interventions. However, clinical practice guidelines have to go through a long translation cycle from development and revision to clinical promotion and application, facing problems such as scattered distribution, high duplication rate, and low actual utilization. At present, the clinical practice guideline information platform can directly or indirectly solve the problems related to the lengthy revision cycles, decentralized dissemination and limited application of clinical practice guidelines. Therefore, this paper systematically examines different types of clinical practice guideline information platforms and investigates their corresponding challenges and emerging trends in platform design, data integration, and practical implementation, with the aim of clarifying the current status of this field and providing valuable reference for future research on clinical practice guideline information platforms.

Sjogren's syndrome (SS) is a common autoimmune disorder that primarily targets exocrine glands, leading to hallmark manifestations of xerostomia and xerophthalmia, with potential progression to multisystem involvement. The rapid advances in omics technologies-including metabolomics, proteomics, and transcriptomics-have yielded substantial insights into SS pathophysiology. This review consolidates current evidence on omics-derived biomarkers in SS. Studies consistently implicate aberrant glucose metabolism, neutrophil-derived enzyme activity, mitochondrial bioenergetic impairment, ferroptosis, and apoptotic pathways as central to SS development. These findings refine our understanding of disease mechanisms and the heterogeneity of therapeutic responses. Hydroxyproline has emerged as a candidate marker for distinguishing SS from IgG4-related disease, whereas distinct cytokine and chemokine signatures may enable earlier diagnosis. Genomic analyses demonstrate a robust association between expression of the rs11797 locus and SS-related lymphomagenesis, and several genes controlling DNA methylation represent promising therapeutic targets. Collectively, these findings lay the groundwork for personalized risk stratification and intervention in SS. The review concludes by summarizing existing progress and outlining priorities for future omics-based investigations.

Prone position ventilation (PPV) is an important protective strategy for lung ventilation, widely used in clinical practice, especially since the novel coronavirus infection pandemic. Since PPV is a non-physiological position, improper implementation and management can lead to serious adverse events such as pressure injury, facial edema, unplanned extubation and (or) reintubation, and even asphyxia. At present, preventive and protective strategies are mainly used to manage PPV-related complications in clinical practice. These strategies not only increase the workload of medical staff and the use of consumables, but also increase the medical cost of patients, further burdening patients and their families economically. To overcome the above problems, the medical staff of the department of critical care medicine of Tianjin Third Central Hospital designed a prone position head auxiliary support device and obtained a national utility model patent (patent number: ZL 2022 2 1751906.3). The device consists of annular plate, folding plate, support frame, reflector and wheel bodies. It serves to reduce pressure on the head and facial skin, while also exposing the mouth, nose, eyes, and ears to the hollow position of the annular plate according to the patient's position. At the same time, the patient's face or side skin can be observed through the lower reflector. The height of the annular plate was adjusted by adjusting the support frame, and the head was raised to reduce facial edema. The setting of strip groove, through hole and hook can sort out the facial pipeline, keep the drainage unobstructed, prevent catheter displacement and unplanned extubation, and has certain clinical promotion and practical value.

Objective To discuss the perioperative care and wound protection of xenotransplantation from genetically edited pigs to monkeys, with the goal of improving the success rate of such experimental procedures. Methods From October 2022 to October 2023, perioperative care and wound protection were performed on 7 recipient rhesus monkeys undergoing xenotransplantation of genetically edited pig tissues and organs. Customized wound protective garments were designed based on monkeys' size and surgical area to protect the wounds, alongside meticulous perioperative care. This included preoperative preparation and medication, intraoperative monitoring of physiological indicators and anesthesia management, and postoperative care comprising wound protection, observation and monitoring, and nutritional support. Results All seven monkeys successfully underwent xenotransplantation. With the aid of protective garments and detailed care, all surgical wounds healed by first intention, and postoperative recovery was satisfactory. Conclusion Proper care and wound protection during xenotransplantation from genetically edited pigs to monkeys not only promote wound healing, but also alleviate pain and harm to animals. This has significant implications for advancing experimental research in pig-monkey xenotransplantation and enhancing animal welfare.

To analyze the factors affecting the cost of hospitalization for patients and provide insights using the intrauterine lesion surgery group (DRG code NE19) as an example. This study was a retrospective cross-sectional study, with data from the first page of medical records of patients enrolled under NE19 at a comprehensive tertiary hospital in Beijing from March 15, 2022 to November 30, 2023. Influence factor selection and multifactorial linear regression analysis were conducted with hospitalization cost as the dependent variable, and patient's basic information, treatment information and key concern factors as independent variables. The profit and loss of medical records containing key factors and differences in indicators of hospitalization cost structure were analyzed in the context of clinical practice. A total of 2213 valid medical records (all female patients) were included, with patients predominantly young and middle-aged women under 45 years of age (72.12%), and with 931 day surgery medical records (42.07%). The diagnosis records included 334(15.09%) multiple uterine leiomyomas, and 246(11.12%) pelvic adhesions. A total of 150(6.78%) medical records involved ovary- and tubal-related surgeries or manipulations, with 160(7.23%) main operations being laparoscopic hysterectomy of diseased uterine lesions and 38(1.72%) mechanical rotational excision of abnormal uterine tissue using transhysteroscopy. Linear regression analysis showed that whether or not ovarian and tubal surgical operations were involved ( The NE19 group of hospitals in the study had a high loss rate, and factors such as the severity of the patient's condition and the use of new technologies affected hospitalization costs, suggesting that there is room for further optimization of the existing grouping scheme. Tiered payment standards can be set up for different tiers of healthcare institutions, and a sound and optimized exclusion mechanism can be used to promote the development of new technologies. The internal management of hospitals should encourage the development of daytime surgery to improve the efficiency of medical services.

Objective To investigate the role and potential mechanisms of tumor necrosis factor alpha-inducible protein 8-like molecule 1(TNFAIP8L1)in acute liver injury in mice.Methods The second generation of C57BL/6J male wild-type(WT)mice and the C57BL/6J female TNFAIP8L1+/-mice and WT mice were selected to further self-breed the third generation of male TNFAIP8L1-/-mice and the third generation of WT male mice.Five normal third-generation male WT mice and five normal third-generation male TNFAIP8L1-/-mice were selected.The serum alanine aminotransferase(ALT)levels of the two types of normal mice were measured and compared.The infiltration of inflammatory cells and cell necrosis in the liver tissues of the two types of normal mice were observed after hematoxylin & eosin(HE)staining.Flow cytometry was used to detect the percentages of neutrophils(Neu),eosinophils(EOS),dendritic cells(DC),bone marrow-derived macrophages(BMDMs),and bone marrow-derived mononuclear cell(BMNCs)in the liver myeloid cell subsets of the two types of normal mice.Another 5 third-generation male WT mice and 4 third-generation male TNFAIP8L1-/-mice were selected to induce acute liver injury mouse models using lipopolysaccharide(LPS)/D-galactosamine(D-Gal).After 24 hours,the serum ALT levels of the two types of acute liver injury mice were detected and compared,the infiltration of inflammatory cells and cell necrosis in the liver tissues of the two types of acute liver injury mice were observed,and the percentages of Neu,EOS,DC,BMDMs and BMNCs in the liver myeloid cell subsets of the two types of acute liver injury mice were measured by using the above methods.Results There was no significant difference in the percentages of Neu,EOS,DC,BMDMs and BMNCs,and serum ALT levels in the livermyeloid cell subsets of normal WT mice and TNFAIP8L1-/-mice(P>0.05).HE staining results of liver tissues in normal WT mice and TNFAIP8L1/mice showed that hepatic lobules were structurally complete and clear,hepatocytes were morphologically normal and arranged neatly,and there was no obvious inflammatory cell infiltration or cell necrosis.Twenty-four hours after acute liver injury,the percentages of Neu and BMNCs in the liver myeloid cell subsets and the serum ALT levels in the liver tissues of TNFAIP8L1-/-mice were significantly higher than those of WT mice(P<0.05);there was no significant difference in the percentages of EOS,DC and BMDMs in the liver myeloid cell subsets of mice between the two groups(P>0.05).In the liver tissues of WT mice with acute liver injury,hepatic lobules were structurally blurred,hepatocytes were swollen with scattered vacuolated steatosis,and a small amount of inflammatory cells were infiltrated.In the liver tissues of TNFAIP8L1/mice with acute liver injury,hepatic lobules were structurally non-existent,and hepatocytes were severely damaged and extensively necrotic,with a large amount of inflammatory cell infiltration.Conclusion The deficiency of the TNFAIP8L1 gene in mice does not affect the development of liver myeloid cells and the homeostasis of the liver.TNFAIP8L1 plays an inhibitory role in the occurrence and development of acute liver injury.TNFAIP8L1 gene deficiency aggravates LPS/D-Gal-induced acute liver injury,possibly by increasing Neu and BMNCs infiltration and recruiting other types of immune cells to infiltrate liver tissues,thereby exacerbating liver cell necrosis.

Background and purpose:Lung adenocarcinoma has the characteristics of difficult early detection,rapid tumor progression and low surgical resection rate.Although studies on immunotherapy alone and immunotherapy combined with chemotherapy have shown initial success in improving prognosis and overcoming drug resistance,the majority of lung adenocarcinoma patients still receive limited benefits.Therefore,there is an urgent need to identify novel biomarkers with relatively high sensitivity and specificity to improve the prognosis of lung adenocarcinoma.Cell division cycle protein 20(CDC20)is involved in the occurrence and development of various tumors,but its biological role and mechanism in lung adenocarcinoma remain unclear.The aim of this study was to investigate the expression of CDC20 in lung adenocarcinoma and its predictive value for the prognosis of patients with lung adenocarcinoma,and to further explore the effects of CDC20 on the proliferation and invasion capabilities of lung adenocarcinoma cells.Methods:Utilizing immunohistochemistry(IHC)to detect the expression of CDC20 in lung adenocarcinoma tissues,we analyzed its correlation with poor prognosis in combination with bioinformatics and clinicopathological parameters.Kaplan-Meier survival curves were employed to illustrate the impact of CDC20 on postoperative survival rates in lung adenocarcinoma patients.COX multivariate regression analysis was conducted to identify independent prognostic factors influencing postoperative survival rates.Additionally,receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curves were applied to assess the diagnostic value of CDC20 expression in lung adenocarcinoma patients.Real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction(RTFQ-PCR)and Western blot were used to measure the expression levels of CDC20 in normal human lung epithelial cells(BEAS-2B)and human lung adenocarcinoma cells(A549 and H1299).In cellular experiments,CDC20 was knocked down in lung adenocarcinoma cells,which were divided into three groups:si-NC(control group),si-CDC20#1(knockdown group 1)and si-CDC20#2(knockdown group 2).Cell counting kit-8(CCK-8),colony formation,transwell and wound healing assays were conducted to assess cell proliferation,migration and invasion capabilities.Functional enrichment analysis using Geng Ontology(GO)and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes(KEGG)pathways was conducted to explore the biological roles of CDC20 in lung adenocarcinoma.Finally,gene set enrichment analysis(GSEA)was employed to investigate potential regulatory pathways of CDC20 in lung adenocarcinoma.This study was approved by the Ethics Committee of Hebei Chest Hospital(Number:2022051).Results:The results of both bioinformatics analysis and IHC demonstrated a significantly high expression of CDC20 in lung adenocarcinoma tissues(P<0.05).Both bioinformatics analysis and clinical parameter evaluation revealed a correlation between high CDC20 expression and poor patient prognosis.Kaplan-Meier survival analysis and COX regression analysis consistently indicated a significant negative correlation between CDC20 expression and postoperative survival rates in patients(P<0.05).Additionally,the expression levels of CDC20 were higher in human lung adenocarcinoma cell lines A549 and H1299 compared with BEAS-2B(P<0.05).Knockdown of CDC20 effectively inhibited the proliferation,migration and invasion of lung adenocarcinoma cells(P<0.05).The results of GO,KEGG pathways and GSEA consistently pointed to a relationship between CDC20 and cell cycle regulation.Conclusion:CDC20 is highly expressed in lung adenocarcinoma.High expression of CDC20 is an independent risk factor for poor prognosis of lung adenocarcinoma patient.CDC20 can promote the proliferation,migration and invasion of lung adenocarcinoma cells.

Objective:To investigate the status quo and influencing factors of the somatization of depressive emotions among college students, in order to provide a theoretical basis for the reform of mental health education and the formulation of operable mental health counseling for college students.Methods:Totally 297 college students from two institutions of higher education in Heilongjiang Province were selected by convenience sampling and investigated with the College Student Depressive Emotion Somatization Questionnaire, Attitudes Toward Seeking Professional Psychological Help Scale-Short Form (ATSPPH-SF), and the Type D Personality Scale (DS14) .Results:The total score for the College Student Depressive Emotion Somatization Questionnaire among the 297 students was (28.49±8.07), and the total score for the ATSPPH-SF was (21.98±2.73). Multiple linear regression analysis showed that the influencing factors for the somatization of depressive emotions in college students were professional psychological help-seeking attitudes and whether they had a Type D personality ( P < 0.05) . Conclusions:During university education, there should be a focus on students' personality traits and the positivity of their attitudes toward seeking professional psychological help in order to mitigate the occurrence of adverse psychological issues such as symptoms of depressive somatization.
