Objective To investigate the mastery of the management knowledge of patients with atrial fibrillation after coronary artery bypass grafting by cardiac surgeons in Beijing tertiary hospitals, and the practice status and obstacles of following the guidelines for postoperative atrial fibrillation. Methods A convenient sampling method was used to select cardiac surgeons from four tertiary hospitals in Beijing, and a self-designed questionnaire on the management of postoperative atrial fibrillation patients was used. Results A total of 227 valid questionnaires were collected. Only 47.9% of doctors and 12.8% of nurses passed in knowledge, and 31.3% of doctors and 28.5% of nurses passed in behavior. Among them, risk factor assessment, preventive medication, stroke and bleeding risk assessment were the weakest. "Lack of departmental requirements" was identified as a common barrier to healthcare workers' adherence to guidelines. Job title and participation in training were common influencing factors that affected the knowledge and behavior of healthcare workers, and knowledge level was an important factor affecting healthcare worker behavior. Conclusion In order to improve the effect of CABG surgery and improve the quality of postoperative patient management, hospitals should further strengthen the knowledge and skills training of medical staff on the management guidelines of postoperative atrial fibrillation with CABG, formulate relevant systems to ensure the clinical implementation of guidelines.

Growth arrest DNA damage-inducible protein 45 β (GADD45B) has been reported to be a regulatory factor for active DNA demethylation and is implicated in the modulation of synaptic plasticity and chronic stress-related psychopathological processes. However, its precise role and mechanism of action in stress susceptibility remain elusive. In this study, we found a significant reduction in GADD45B expression specifically in the ventral, but not the dorsal hippocampal CA1 (dCA1) of stress-susceptible mice. Furthermore, we demonstrated that GADD45B negatively regulates susceptibility to social stress and NMDA receptor-dependent long-term potentiation (LTP) in the ventral hippocampal CA1 (vCA1). Importantly, through pharmacological inhibition using the NMDA receptor antagonist MK801, we provided further evidence supporting the hypothesis that GADD45B potentially modulates susceptibility to social stress by influencing NMDA receptor-mediated LTP. Collectively, these results suggested that modulation of NMDA receptor-mediated synaptic plasticity is a pivotal mechanism underlying the regulation of susceptibility to social stress by GADD45B.

Objective To perform visual analysis for the literatures related to the application of new technologies in academic journal publishing,and to explore the research hotspots and development trends of new technologies applied to academic journal publishing in China.Methods We searched literatures in CNKI with the search formula SU%='Academic Journal Publishing'*('New Technology'+'5G'+'Big Data'+'Artificial Intelligence'+'Blockchain'+'Mobile Terminal'+'Cloud Computing'+'Internet'+'Database'+'VR/AR'+'Multimedia'),and using CiteSpace software,we analyzed the research hotspots and development trends of new technologies applied to academic journal publishing.Results A total of 436 articles were included in this study.The journal with the largest number of articles was China Science and Technology Journal Research.There were 34 core authors in the literatures included,and the collaboration between authors was relatively loose.The cooperation and communication between research institutions were not sufficient,and the cross-institutional cooperation needed to be strengthened.The keywords related to dimensional analysis,such as co-occurrence,clustering,and highlighting had significant characteristics.The research mainly focused on"the integrated development of academic journals and digital publishing","the innovation and development of the publishing under the background of internet+","media integration and communication strategy of academic journals","research on the application of artificial intelligence in the publishing",and"research on the communication effect of scientific and technical journals on cnki and other platforms".Conclusion The research of new technologies applied to academic journal publishing is still at a primary stage.The research mainly focuses on digital publishing,new media integration,talent training,and journal publishing reform,aiming to explore the way of talent training,academic dissemination strategy,innovative development path,and integrative development direction of academic journals in the digital era.

Objective:To investigate the effect of decarbromodiphenyl ether(BDE-209)exposure on the migration ability of triple-negative breast cancer(TNBC)cells and to explore the underlying mechanism.Methods:Human TNBC MDA-MB-231 cells were divided into blank control group and BDE-209 exposure groups(treated with 0.02,0.20,2.00,20.00 and 200.00 ng/mL BDE-209 in high glucose DMEM).Extracellular vehicles(EVs)secreted by MDA-MB-231 cells were isolated by differential ultracentrifugation.Transmission electron microscopy(SEM),nanoparticle tracking analysis(NTA)and Western blotting were performed to characterize the EVs.The effect of the EVs induced by BDE-209 exposure(EVs-BDE-209)on the migration and invasion of MDA-MB-231 cells was detected by wound-healing assay and Transwell test.qRT-PCR was used to measure the miR-221 level in EVs-BDE-209.The expression of MMP9 in MDA-MB-231 cells was determined by Western blotting.Results:Compared with the blank control,BDE-209 exposure increased the tumor cell-derived EVs in dose-dependent manner.The MDA-MB-231 cells co-cultured with EVs released by 200.00 ng/mL BDE-209 exposure showed an 86%increase in cell migration rate,a 1.32-fold higher number of membrane-penetrating cells,a 2.71-fold higher expression level of miR-221,and a 1.62-fold higher expression level of MMP9 compared with the blank control group(all P<0.05).While transfection with anti-miR-221 antibody to decrease miR-221 level in EVs significantly reversed the increased invasion ability of the MDA-MB-231 cells treated with EVs-BDE-209.Conclusion:BDE-209 exposure may promote metastasis potential of MDA-MB-231 cells via EVs-BDE-209 transmitted miR-221.

Objective:To compare the clinical efficacy of neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (nCRT) and neoadjuvant chemo-immunotherapy (nCIT) for locally advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC).Methods:Clinical data of patients who received nCRT or nCIT followed by esophagectomy for locally advanced ESCC between January 2010 and December 2022 were retrospectively collected from Zhejiang Cancer Hospital, with 155 patients in the nCRT group and 470 patients in the nCIT group. Propensity score matching (PSM) was performed in the two groups. After PSM, 120 patients were allocated to the nCRT group and 192 patients to the nCIT group. The pathological response and disease recurrence were compared between the two groups after PSM. Log rank test were used to compare the survival outcomes before and after PSM. Univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses were performed to identify the prognostic factors for locally advanced ESCC.Results:After PSM, the R0 resection rate in the nCRT group and the nCIT group was 93.3% (112/120) and 93.8% (180/192), respectively, with no statistical significance ( P=0.884). However, the pathological complete response rate in the nCRT group [36.7% (44/120)] was higher than that in the nCIT group [21.4% (41/192), P=0.003]. For patients with R0 resection, the major recurrence pattern was distant metastasis [18.8% (21/112)] in the nCRT group, while the pattern was locoregional recurrence [12.2% (22/180)] in the nCIT group. The 3-year disease-free survival rates were 52.7% and 66.1% ( P=0.022) and the 3-year overall survival rates were 59.2% and 75.5% ( P=0.002) in the nCRT and nCIT groups, respectively. Multivariate Cox regression analysis also revealed that the neoadjuvant therapy mode was an independent prognostic factor for patients with locally advanced ESCC. Compared with nCRT, nCIT could significantly prolong disease-free survival ( HR=0.58, 95% CI: 0.40-0.86) and overall survival ( HR=0.53, 95% CI: 0.35-0.79). Conclusion:These results suggest that nCIT could significantly improve disease-free survival rate and overall survival rate over nCRT in locally advanced ESCC, even with lower pathological complete response rate.
