Objective To explore the candidate genes and potential molecular mechanisms of anti-neutrophil cyto-plasmic antibodies(ANCA)-associated vasculitis by bioinformatics and experimental validation,and to provide a scientific theoretical basis for the treatment of potential inflammatory targets for ANCA-associated vasculitis.Meth-ods The GSE108109 chip data was retrieved from the Gene Expression Omnibus(GEO)database,and the differ-ential genes were processed,analyzed and screened using the R language related program package.Kyoto encyclo-pedia of genes and genomes(KEGG)and gene ontology(GO)enrichment analysis was carried out using DAVID online network cable,and the interaction network of the protein encoded by the selected genes of inflammatory syn-drome was constructed through STRING website.Further endogenous competitive RNA(ceRNA)regulatory net-work was predicted and constructed through miRWalk and DIANA-LncBase databases,and key genes were screened from the network to draw ROC curve.The renal biopsy samples of patients with ANCA-associated vasculi-tis confirmed by our hospital were collected as the experimental group,and the renal biopsy samples of IgA ne-phropathy and micro-adaptive nephropathy were collected as the control group.Immunohistochemical staining was performed on the collected renal biopsy samples,and the average optical density was calculated by semi-quantita-tive analysis of immunohistochemical staining to further verify the expression of the key genes screened by the bioin-formatics analysis.Pearson linear correlation analysis was performed between the average optical density results and the clinical inflammatory data of patients.Results 846 differential genes were screened,of which 444 genes were significantly up-regulated and 402 genes were significantly down-regulated.Through KEGG and GO analysis,im-portant differentially expressed genes related to inflammation regulation were obtained.Among them,CSF1R and TNFRSF1B,two differentially expressed genes never reported in ANCA-associated vasculitis,attracted our atten-tion.At the same time,we constructed multiple ceRNA regulatory axes including KCNQ1OT1-hsa-miR-125a-5p-TNFRSF1B.There were 15 samples of ANCA-associated vasculitis,6 samples of IgA nephropathy,and 3 samples of micropathological kidney.Immunohistochemical results of renal biopsy specimens showed that the expression of CSF1R and TNFRSF1B in ANCA-associated vasculitis kidney tissue was higher than that in the control group.Pearson correlation analysis of clinical data of patients in ANCA group showed that the expression of CSF1R was positively correlated with the content of neutrophil count(r=0.587),and the expression of TNFRSF1B was posi-tively correlated with the content of serum C-reactive protein(r=0.646).Conclusion Key genes related to in-flammatory regulation such as CSF1R and TNFRSF1B were investigated by bioinformatics methods,and a rigorous ceRNA regulatory network was constructed.The expression of CSF1R and TNFRSF1B in ANCA vasculitis was high-er than that in the control group through immunohistochemistry.The results provides a scientific theoretical basis for the molecular mechanism of inflammation,and laid a good foundation for new therapeutic targets of ANCA-related vasculitis for inflammation.

Objective To evaluate the effect of the 3D-printed heart model on congenital heart disease (CHD) education through systematic review and meta-analysis. Methods The literature about the application of the 3D-printed heart model in CHD education was systematically searched by computer from PubMed, Web of Science, and EMbase from inception to November 10, 2022. The two researchers independently screened the literature, extracted data and evaluated the quality of the literature. Cochrane literature evaluation standard was used to evaluate the quality of randomized controlled trials, and JBI evaluation scale was used for cross-sectional and cohort studies. Results After screening, 23 literatures were included, including 7 randomized controlled trials, 15 cross-sectional studies and 1 cohort study. Randomized controlled trials were all at low-risk, cross-sectional studies and and the cohort study had potential bias. There were 4 literatures comparing 3D printing heart model with 2D image teaching and the meta-analysis result showed that the effect of 3D printing heart model on theoretical achievement was more significant compared with 2D image teaching (SMD=0.31, 95%CI –0.28 to 0.91, P=0.05). Conclusion The application of the 3D-printed heart model in CHD education can be beneficial. But more randomized controlled trials are still needed to verify this result.

The retention of emergency patients is a common problem faced by hospitals worldwide. In addition to medical problems, social, family, economic and other problems will also cause patients to stay in the emergency department. It not only brings challenges to patients’ own disease treatment and hospital operation and management, but also brings ethical dilemmas. Taking the service cases of medical social workers who involved in stranded patients in Shanghai E Hospital as an example, this paper analyzed 20 service records and interviews with social workers receiving cases, and combed the ethical dilemmas faced by medical social workers in the process of involving in emergency stranded patients. It was found that medical social workers faced many ethical dilemmas in the process of involving in emergency stranded patients, such as interpersonal relations and relevant legal regulations, the right to life and health and the right to informed consent, the self-determination of case owners and the allocation of medical resources. In this regard, it is suggested to solve the problem of patient retention by advocating the improvement of relevant systems and policies, building cooperative teams to smooth referral channels, strengthening education, and promoting family shared decision-making.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To analyze the prescription of potential drug-drug interactions(pDDIS) between colchicine and statins, carry out risk assessment and formulate preventive measures. METHODS The case and research reports of adverse reactions caused by the interaction between colchicine and statins were retrieved from the databases of CNKI, VIP, Wanfang, PubMed and Elsevier, and the literature was analyzed; all outpatient prescriptions of colchicine combined with statins from January 2020 to October 2022 were extracted through hospital rational drug use software to identify potential drug interactions and grade the severity. RESULTS Twenty two cases of adverse drug reactions caused by drug interaction were retrieved, including 1 case control study and 2 observational cohort studies; the majority of adverse reactions were in the elderly, male were more than female; the time of occurrence was concentrated in 21 d of combined medication, and 3 patients died; high dose, old age, male and liver/kidney dysfunction might increase the risk of this pDDIS; a total of 72 prescriptions of colchicine and statins were collected, including 65 atorvastatin prescriptions, 6 rosuvastatin prescriptions, and 1 simvastatin prescription. The risk levels were all serious; one patient developed myopathy after 4 months of colchicine combined with atorvastatin, and improved after 1 month; seven preventive measures had been formulated by clinical pharmacists. CONCLUSION There is pDDIS in colchicine and statin prescriptions in the Affiliated Hospital of Zunyi Medical University. It is necessary to actively implement preventive measures and strengthen monitoring, especially for elderly men and patients with liver/kidney dysfunction in the early stage of combined use.
