[Objective] To explore the effectiveness of applying the PDCA (Plan-Do-Check-Act) cycle to enhance the compatibility rate of five Rh blood group antigen phenotypes between donors and recipients across multiple hospital campuses. [Methods] Clinical blood transfusion data from May to July 2022 were selected. Specific improvement measures were formulated based on the survey results, and the PDCA cycle management model was implemented from August 2022. The post-intervention phase spanned from August 2022 to October 2023. The Rh phenotype compatibility rate, the detection rate of Rh system antibodies, and the proportion of Rh system antibodies among unexpected antibodies were compared between the pre-intervention phase (May to July 2022) and the post-intervention phase. [Results] After the continuous improvement with the PDCA cycle, the compatibility rate for the five Rh blood group antigen phenotypes between donors and recipients from August to October 2023 reached 81.90%, significantly higher than the 70.54% recorded during the pre-intervention phase (May to July 2022, P<0.01), and displayed a quarterly upward trend (β=0.028, P<0.05). The detection rate of Rh blood group system antibodies (β=-9.839×10-5, P<0.05) and its proportion among all detected antibodies (β=-0.022, P<0.05) showed a quarterly decreasing trend, both demonstrating a negative correlation with the enhanced compatibility rate (r values of -0.981 and -0.911, respectively; P<0.05). [Conclusion] The implementation of targeted measures through the PDCA cycle can effectively increase the compatibility rate of five Rh blood group antigen phenotypes between donors and recipients, reduce the occurrence of unexpected Rh blood group antibodies, thereby lowering the risk of transfusion and enhancing the quality and safety of medical care.

OBJECTIVE To explore the potential mechanism of ketamine-induced cognitive impairment in mice based on metabolomics. METHODS Male C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into control group and ketamine group (25 mg/kg), with 12 mice in each group. Each group of mice was intraperitoneally injected with normal saline or corresponding drugs, 4 times a day, for 10 consecutive days. On the last 2 days of drug administration, the cognitive behavior was evaluated by Y maze and novel object recognition test, and the histopathological changes in the prefrontal cortex (PFC) were observed. Ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry technology was used to analyze the changes of metabolites in PFC, screen for differential metabolites, and perform pathway enrichment analysis. RESULTS Compared with the control group, the morphology of PFC neurons in the ketamine group of mice was inconsistent. There were cavities around the nucleus, and the number of deeply stained cells increased. The mean optical density value of the Nissl staining positive area was significantly reduced, and the alternation rate and discrimination index were significantly reduced (P<0.05 or P<0.01). In the PFC tissue samples of mice of the two groups, there were a total of 114 differential metabolites, including 73 up-regulated and 41 down-regulated metabolites, including glutamine, succinic acid, ketoglutarate, and choline, etc. The differential metabolites mentioned above were mainly enriched in metabolism of alanine, aspartate and glutamate, metabolism of arginine and proline, γ aminobutyric acid synapses, pyrimidine metabolism, cholinergic synapses pathways, etc. CONCLUSIONS Ketamine can induce cognitive impairment in mice. Its neurotoxicity is related to abnormal synaptic transmission and energy metabolism, and neuroimmune regulation disorders.

Journal of Pharmaceutical Practice and Service 2025;43(7):344-347
Objective To analyze the effect of hypoproteinemia on the use of cefoperazone sulbactam in patients, and provide references for the rational use of cefoperazone sulbactam in clinical practice. Methods Clinical data of patients with cefoperazone blood concentration monitoring in our hospital from July 2021 to March 2022 were collected, and divided into low albumin group and normal albumin group according to different albumin concentration. Statistical analysis were conducted based on gender, age, laboratory examination, cefoperazone valley concentration and clinical efficacy of the two groups. Results Age, gender, inflammation and liver function of two groups had not shown statistical difference (P>0.05). Low protein group had significantly higher levels of creatinine than those in group with normal albumin (P<0.05). The trough concentration of cefoperazone in the low protein group was (46.29±36.94) mg/L, and that in the normal albumin group was (38.18±33.79) mg/L. Among the low protein patient group, the plasma concentration of cefoperazone in those treated with human albumin was significantly higher than that in the patients without human albumin treatment (P<0.05). Comparison of the clinical efficacy of the two groups revealed that the low protein group had a lower clinical response rate (P<0.05). Conclusion Supplementation of human serum albumin in patients with hypoproteinemia could increase the plasma concentration of cefoperazone, and correcting hypoproteinemia could be helpful for anti-infection treatment.

Influenza virus causes serious threat to human life and health. Due to the inherent high variability of influenza virus, clinically resistant mutant strains of currently approved anti-influenza virus drugs have emerged. Therefore, it is urgent to develop antiviral drugs with new targets or mechanisms of action. RNA-dependent RNA polymerase is directly responsible for viral RNA transcription and replication, and plays key roles in the viral life cycle, which is considered an important target of anti-influenza drug design. From the point of view of medicinal chemistry, this review summarizes current advances in diverse small-molecule inhibitors targeting influenza virus RNA-dependent RNA polymerase, hoping to provide valuable reference for development of novel antiviral drugs.

Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a clinical syndrome characterized by a rapid decline in renal function over a short period due to various etiologic factors. If left untreated, AKI can progress to chronic kidney disease (CKD) or even end-stage renal disease (ESRD). Although continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) can manage severe AKI, effective pharmacological treatments for AKI remain largely unavailable. Chinese medicine, with its multi-target and multi-pathway approaches, has accumulated substantial theoretical and practical knowledge in treating AKI and related complications. Rehmanniae Radix is a commonly used Chinese medicinal, known for its functions in clearing heat, cooling blood, nourishing yin, and promoting fluid production. The primary active ingredients of Rehmanniae Radix include catalpol, acteoside, and aucubin. In this study, we summarized recent research on the effect of the active ingredients of Rehmanniae Radix in preventing and treating AKI. We found that the key mechanisms underlying its anti-AKI effects include amelioration of inflammation, alleviation of oxidative stress, and inhibition of apoptosis. Additionally, the antifibrotic properties of the active ingredients of Rehmanniae Radix suggest its potential in slowing CKD progression. We reviewed the mechanisms of Rehmanniae Radix in treating AKI and its antifibrotic effects to provide a scientific basis for developing new AKI drugs, promoting the utilization of Rehmanniae Radix resources, and reducing the transition from AKI to CKD.
