Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy and safety of facilitated percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI)with half-dose recombinant staphylokinase(r-SAK)in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction(STEMI)who are expected to undergo PCI within 120 minutes.Methods From October 2021 to August 2022,a total of 200 STEMI patients in eight centers were included and randomly assigned in a 1﹕1 ratio to either r-SAK group or control group.Patients received loading doses of aspirin and ticagrelor and intravenous heparin and were randomized to receive an intravenous bolus of either 5 mg r-SAK or normal saline prior to PCI.The outcomes were set as ST-segment resolution(STR)at 60-90 minutes after PCI,the proportion and transition of pathological Q waves on the 5th day after PCI,and the proportion of high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T(hs-cTnT)peaking within 12 hours of onset.The safety outcome was major bleeding events defined as Bleeding Academic Research Consortium(BARC)≥type 3 bleeding during hospitalization.Results Compared with the control group,the r-SAK group had a higher proportion of STR≥70%within 60-90 minutes after PCI(58.3%vs.40.3%,P=0.009);a lower proportion of pathological Q waves(59.1%vs.74.1%,P=0.040);a lower rate of Q wave progression(14.8%vs.43.2%,P＜0.001);a higher rate of Q wave disappearance(12.5%vs.3.7%,P=0.027);and a higher proportion of hs-cTnT peaking within 12 hours of symptom onset[31/40(77.5%)vs.17/33(51.5%),P=0.027].Regarding the safety outcome,no significant difference in BARC≥type 3 bleeding was found between the two groups during hospitalization(P＞0.05).Conclusions For STEMI patients who were expected to undergo primary PCI within 120 minutes of symptom onset,the facilitated PCI with half-dose r-SAK significantly increased the proportion of STR≥70%at 60-90 minutes after PCI,reduced the formation of pathological Q waves,and shortened the time to peak hs-cTnT,without increasing the risk of bleeding,which should be an alternative reperfusion strategy worthy of further study.

Objective:This study aimed to evaluate the application effect of opioid-free anesthesia(OFA)in modified radical mastectomy for breast cancer.Methods:80 patients undergoing unilateral modified radical mastec-tomy were randomly divided into two groups:general anesthesia group(G group)and OFA group(O group).The G group received general anesthesia with opioid drugs and a laryngeal mask,while the O group received general anes-thesia with intravenous lidocaine combined with thoracic paravertebral nerve block and a laryngeal mask.The average arterial pressure(MAP)and heart rate(HR)of the patients were recorded at the time of admission(T0),induction(T1),start of surgery(T2),gland resection(T3),and admission to the recovery room(T4).The surgical time,awakening time,ex-tubation time,and getting out of bed time were recorded.The VAS score at 2 hours(T5),6 hours(T6),and 12 hours(T7)after surgery,as well as the systemic immune-inflammatory index(SII)before surgery(T8),6 hours after surgery(T9),and 12 hours after surgery(T10)were recorded.The occurrence of postoperative nausea and vomiting(PONV)and post-mastectomy pain syndrome(PMPS)were recorded.The occurrence of adverse events such as poor nerve block effect,pneumothorax,hematoma,and local anesthetic toxicity were also recorded.Results:The MAP and HR of the O group were more stable than those of the G group during surgery(P＜0.05).The awakening time,extubation time,and getting out of bed time in the O group were earlier than those in the G group(P＜0.05).The VAS and SII values after surgery were significantly lower in the O group than in the G group(P＜0.05).The incidence of PONV was also signifi-cantly decreased(P＜0.05).In addition,no adverse events such as pneumothorax,hematoma,or local anesthetic toxic-ity occurred in the O group.Conclusion:Pioid-free anesthesia is safe and effective in modified radical mastectomy for breast cancer,shortening recovery time,time to first flatus,and time to ambulation,while alleviating postoperative pain,systemic inflammatory response,perioperative hemodynamic fluctuations,and the incidence of postoperative nau-sea and vomiting.

Objective To explore the anesthetic effects of remimazolam combined with nalbuphine on patients undergoing painless gastroscopy.Methods A total of 120 patients who underwent painless gastroscopy in Handan Central Hospital from August 2019 to May 2021 were selected and randomly divided into the observation group(60 cases)and the control group(60 cases).Patients in the observation group anesthetized with remimazolam and nalbuphine,while patients in the control group anesthetized with propofol and alfentanil.The vital signs,sedative effect,recovery quality,cognitive function,and adverse reactions of patients were compared between the two groups.Results The heart rate(HR),respiratory rate(RR),and the level of pulse oxygen saturation(SpO2)of patients in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group(P<0.05).Five minutes after the examination,the Narcotrend score of patients in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group(P<0.05).The time from the last administration to awakening,the time from gastroscopy removal to awakening,and the time of leaving the anesthesia recovery room of patients in the observation group were significantly shorter than those in the control group(P<0.05).Five minutes after the examination,the score of the mini-mental state examination(MMSE)of patients in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group(P<0.05),while the incidence of adverse reactions was significantly lower than that in the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion The application of remimazolam combined with nalbuphine anesthesia in painless gastroscopy has a relatively ideal effect,which can effectively reduce the adverse reactions of patients and promote rapid postoperative recovery.

OBJECTIVE: Psoriasis, a common chronic inflammatory skin condition with genetic underpinnings, is traditionally managed with cupping therapy. Although used historically, the precise mechanical effects and therapeutic mechanisms of cupping in psoriasis remain largely unexamined. This study aimed to evaluate cupping therapy's efficacy for psoriasis and investigate its role in modulating inflammatory responses and cellular metabolism. METHODS: Psoriasis was induced in mice using topical imiquimod (IMQ). The effects of cupping on psoriatic lesions were assessed using the Psoriasis Area and Severity Index score, histology, immunohistochemistry, and immunofluorescence staining. polymerase chain reaction sequencing (RNA-seq) and Western blotting were conducted to examine changes in mRNA expression and the AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) signaling pathway. RESULTS: Cupping therapy significantly reduced inflammation, epidermal thickness, and inflammatory cell infiltration in mice with IMQ-induced psoriasis. Immunohistochemistry and immunofluorescence showed lower expression of inflammatory markers and a shift in T-cell populations. RNA-seq and Western blotting indicated that cupping upregulated Piezo1 and activated the AMPK pathway, improving energy metabolism in psoriatic skin. CONCLUSION Cupping therapy reduces epidermal hyperproliferation and inflammation in psoriasis, rebalancing the local immune microenvironment. Mechanistically, cupping promotes calcium influx via Piezo1, activates AMPK signaling, and supports metabolic homeostasis, suggesting therapeutic potential for psoriasis.

OBJECTIVE: To identify the key features of facial and tongue images associated with anemia in female populations, establish anemia risk-screening models, and evaluate their performance. METHODS: A total of 533 female participants (anemic and healthy) were recruited from Shuguang Hospital. Facial and tongue images were collected using the TFDA-1 tongue and face diagnosis instrument. Color and texture features from various parts of facial and tongue images were extracted using Face Diagnosis Analysis System (FDAS) and Tongue Diagnosis Analysis System version 2.0 (TDAS v2.0). Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator (LASSO) regression was used for feature selection. Ten machine learning models and one deep learning model (ResNet50V2 + Conv1D) were developed and evaluated. RESULTS: Anemic women showed lower a-values, higher L- and b-values across all age groups. Texture features analysis showed that women aged 30-39 with anemia had higher angular second moment (ASM)and lower entropy (ENT) values in facial images, while those aged 40-49 had lower contrast (CON), ENT, and MEAN values in tongue images but higher ASM. Anemic women exhibited age-related trends similar to healthy women, with decreasing L-values and increasing a-, b-, and ASM-values. LASSO identified 19 key features from 62. Among classifiers, the Artificial Neural Network (ANN) model achieved the best performance [area under the curve (AUC): 0.849, accuracy: 0.781]. The ResNet50V2 model achieved comparable results [AUC: 0.846, accuracy: 0.818]. CONCLUSION Differences in facial and tongue images suggest that color and texture features can serve as potential TCM phenotype and auxiliary diagnostic indicators for female anemia.
