ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of modified Ditan tang on genes related to the transcription-translation feedback loop （TTFL） of biorhythm in the rat model of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease （NAFLD） and its mechanism for prevention and treatment of NAFLD. MethodsSixty-five healthy SPF male SD rats were randomly assigned into blank （n=20）， model （n=15）， and low-， medium-， and high-dose （2.68， 5.36， and 10.72 g·kg^-1·d^-1， respectively） modified Ditan tang （n=10） groups. Other groups except the blank group were fed a high-fat diet for 12 weeks. The modified Ditan tang groups were treated with the decoction at corresponding doses by gavage， and the blank and model groups were treated with an equal volume of normal saline from the 9th week for 4 weeks. The levels of triglyceride （TG）， total cholesterol （TC）， low-density lipoprotein cholesterol （LDL-C）， high-density lipoprotein cholesterol （HDL-C）， aspartate aminotransferase （AST）， and alanine aminotransferase （ALT） in the serum were measured by an automatic biochemical analyzer. TG and non-esterified fatty acid （NEFA） assay kits were used to measure the levels of TG and NEFA in the liver. The pathological changes in the hypothalamus and liver were observed by hematoxylin-eosin staining， and the lipid deposition in the liver was observed by oil red O staining. The levels of brain-muscle ARNT-like protein 1 （BMAL1/ARNTL） in the hypothalamus and liver were determined by immunohistochemical staining. The mRNA and protein levels of BMAL1， circadian locomotor output cycles kaput （CLOCK）， period circadian clock 2 （PER2）， and cryptochrome1 （Cry1） in the hypothalamus and liver were determined by Real-time PCR and Western blot， respectively. ResultsCompared with the blank group， the model group showed elevated levels of TG， TC， LDL-C， AST， and ALT （P<0.01） and a lowered level of HDL-C （P<0.05） in the serum， elevated levels of TG and NEFA in the liver （P<0.01）， pyknosis and deep staining of hypothalamic neuron cells， and a large number of vacuoles in the brain area. In addition， the model group showed lipid deposition in the liver， up-regulated mRNA and protein levels of CLOCK and BMAL1 （P<0.01）， and down-regulated mRNA and protein levels of Cry1 and PER2 （P<0.01） in the hypothalamus and liver. Compared with the model group， all the three modified Ditan tang groups showed lowered levels of TG， TC， LDL-C， ALT， and AST （P<0.05， P<0.01） and an elevated level of HDL-C （P<0.05） in the serum， and lowered levels of TG and NEFA （P<0.05， P<0.01） in the liver. Furthermore， the three groups showed alleviated pyknosis and deep staining of hypothalamic neuron cells， reduced lipid deposition in the liver， down-regulated mRNA and protein levels of CLOCK and BMAL1 （P<0.05， P<0.01）， and up-regulated mRNA and protein levels of Cry1 and PER2 （P<0.05， P<0.01） in the hypothalamus and liver. ConclusionModified Ditan tang can reduce lipid deposition in the liver and regulate the expression of CLOCK， BMAL1， Cry1， and PER2 in the TTFL of NAFLD rats.

Objective:To overview the systematic reviews of prevention and management measures of medication errors, so as to provide evidence support for clinical decision-making for medical staff.Methods:Cochrane Library, Australia Joanna Briggs Institute Evidence-based Healthcare Center database, CINAHL, PubMed, Embase, CNKI, SinoMed, Wanfang database and VIP database were searched by computer to search for systematic reviews of prevention and management measures of medication errors, and the search period was from establishment of the databases to June 30, 2023. Two researchers with systematic evidence-based training applied A Measure Tool to Assess Systematic Reviews 2 (AMSTAR 2) to evaluate the literature quality, and Grades of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE) was used to evaluate the quality of outcome indicators.Results:Finally, a total of 19 systematic reviews were included. The overall quality evaluation using AMSTAR 2 was relatively low, with one article rated as high-quality, one article rated as low-quality and 17 articles rated as extremely low-quality. According to the evidence quality evaluation results of GRADE system for 55 outcome indicators of 19 systematic reviews, 3 pieces of evidence were medium, 27 pieces of evidence were low and 25 pieces of evidence were extremely low, indicating an overall low quality of evidence.Conclusions:The related researches on prevention and management of medication errors have been carried out extensively, and the computer system is one of the effective measures to reduce medication errors. The effectiveness of measures such as administration process modification, doctor/nurse education and training, double check, pharmacist intervention, automated dispensing cabinet/ automated pump and drug display is still unclear and needs to be further confirmed by large sample size and high-quality studies.

Objective:To explore the facilitators and barriers in implementing the orthokeratology lens-wearing education guidance program from the perspectives of children, their families, and medical and nursing staff.Methods:Based on phenomenological research, purposive sampling was used to select five medical workers, 18 children wearing orthokeratology lenses and family members from the Optometry Center of Peking University Third Hospital as interviewees for semi-structured interviews. Colaizzi's 7-step method was used to analyze interview data.Results:Two themes (facilitators and barriers) were extracted, among which facilitators included two sub-themes (strong demand for educational guidance, trust in medical and nursing staff), and barriers consisted of two sub-themes (patient factors, external support factors) .Conclusions:In promoting the educational guidance intervention program for wearing orthokeratology lenses, medical and nursing staff need to fully play the role of facilitators, analyze and solve barriers, and ultimately promote the smooth implementation of the intervention program.

Acute high altitude disease (AHAD) is a general term for a series of clinical reactions that occur when the body fails to adapt to the low-pressure hypoxic environment of high altitudes. Mild cases can cause symptoms such as headache, nausea and vomiting, while more severe cases can lead to life-threatening conditions such as pulmonary edema, cerebral edema and other critical conditions that can be fatal. With the increasing demand for high altitudes deployment, understanding the common preventive measures of AHAD can reduce its morbidity or mortality to a certain extent, which is of great benefit to those who reside temporarily at high altitudes. In recent years, as people's health awareness has improved, there has been a growing attention towards non-pharmacological methods of disease prevention. At the same time, non-pharmacological therapy has significant therapeutic effects in preventing and treating high-altitude diseases, which has attracted the attention of researchers in this field. This review summarizes the major non-pharmacological preventive components of modern medicine and outlines the current non-pharmacological approaches to AHAD from the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, intending to serve clinical purposes and improve the onset and prognosis of AHAD.

Objective To evaluate the scientificity,transparency and applicability of Chinese guidelines and expert consensuses on nursing published in 2022,in order to improve the quality of guidelines and consensuses.Methods Databases including Medline,Embase,Web of Science,CBM,CNKI,WanFang database,Chinese Medical Journal,and related websites were electronically searched,as well as China Hong Kong,Macao and Taiwan medical journals,to collect Chinese guidelines and expert consensuses on nursing from January to December 2022.STAR tool was used to evaluate the quality of each guidelines and consensuses by 3 assessors independently.Total score,scoring rate of each domain and item were adopted to analyze the outcomes.Results A total of 3 guidelines and 33 expert consensuses were included.The total guidelines and expert consensuses STAR score(33.5±14.3).The quality of guidelines and consensuses was low.The quality of guidelines was moderate with average score of 55.1,and the quality of consensuses was low with average score of 31.5.The included guidelines and consensuses had a highest score rate(52.4％)in the domain of recommendation.Among 39 items of STAR tool,the top 4 items including listing participants and institutions,explaining additional instructions for implementation,describing consensus method,and listing references for recommendations had a high score rate of 100％,83.3％,77.8％,75.0％respectively.However,the items of registration,providing registration information,protocols being searched on public platforms and explaining the role of funding had a low score rate,urgent need for attention and upgrading.Conclusion The overall quality of the Chinese guidelines and expert consensuses on nursing published in 2022 was low.As a medical and nursing practice guidance document,the quality of guidelines and expert consensuses should be improved by encouraging registration,strengthening management of interest conflict,enhancing the rigor of guideline developing process,and expanding the dissemination.

Objective:To determine the efficacy and influencing factors of thymectomy for bulbar myasthenia gravis.Methods:The clinical data of 120 patients with bulbar myasthenia gravis admitted to the Myasthenia Gravis Comprehensive Diagnosis and Treatment Center of Henan Provincial People's Hospital from March 2018 to June 2023 were collected, with 61 males and 59 females. There were 66 patients with thymoma and 54 patients with non-thymoma. The duration of bulbar muscle involvement before operation ranged from 11 days to 108 months. Preoperative AChR-Ab was positive in 105 cases and negative in 15 cases. There were 28 cases with bulbar muscle involvement as the initial symptom and 92 cases as the non-initial symptom. There were 7 cases with crisis and 113 cases without crisis in the past. The postoperative efficacy was evaluated according to the Myasthenia Gravis post-treatment status evaluation program of the American Myasthenia Gravis Society. Univariate analysis and logistic regression analysis were used to analyze the factors that may affect the surgical efficacy. Results:All 120 patients successfully underwent extended thymectomy, there was no perioperative death. The follow-up time was 3-57 months, with a median of 24 months. Twenty-two patients (18.33%) achieved complete durable remission, 1 patient (0.83%) maintained remission, 65 patients (54.17%) had minimal symptoms, and 20 patients (16.70%) improved. No change in 8 cases (6.67%), no aggravation cases (0), deterioration in 2 cases (1.67%), and death in 2 cases (1.67%). 23 cases(19.17%) achieved clinical remission and 85 cases (70.83%) achieved partial remission. Univariate analysis showed that positive AChR-Ab before operation and duration of bulbar muscle involvement before operation were the influencing factors of surgical efficacy in patients with bulbar MG, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that positive AChR-Ab before operation and the duration of bulbar muscle involvement before operation were independent influencing factors of surgical efficacy. Conclusion:Thymectomy can effectively relieve the symptoms of bulbar myasthenia gravis. Patients with positive AChR-Ab before surgery and shorter duration of bulbar muscle involvement may benefit more from thymectomy.

Objective:To study the effects of metformin on marginal bone resorption of implants in patients with type 2 diabetes melli-tus(T2DM)and exercise habit.Methods:63 cases with 73 implants were included.Among them,there were 41 cases(47 implants)without T2DM in group N,10 cases(13 implants)with T2DM and without exercise habit in group M,12 cases(12 implants)with T2DM and exercise habit in the MR group.The patients were followed up at 6 months,1 and 2 years after implantation.The marginal bone loss(MBL).Implantation success rate and peri-implantitis incidence rate were compared among the groups.Results:The bone resorption of the proximal and median margins of the long-term bone level of the implants in the N and MR groups were significantly lower than that in the M group(P=0.001 and P=0.000 5,respectively).The implant success rates of group N,MR and M were 95.74％,100％and 76.92％,respectively.The incidence of peri-implantitis of the three groups was 2.13％,0 and 15.38％,respec-tively.Conclusion:Metformin is more effective in the improvement of the long-term marginal bone resorption of implants,increase the success rate of implants,and reduce the incidence of peri-implantitis in patients with T2DM and exercise habit in the mandibular first molar area.

Objective To investigate the effect of core decompression combined with bone-morphogenetic proteins(BMP)activity inducing rod implantation in the treatment of early-stage femoral head necrosis.Methods Retrospective analysis of 116 patients with early-stage femoral head necrosis from June 2018 to June 2022 were divided into core decompression combined with BMP activity inducing rod group(BMP group)and allograft bone group.Sixty cases in the BMP group were treated with core decompression combined with implantation of BMP-activated induced rods,and 56 cases in the allograft group were treated with core decompression combined with bone grafting of the allograft bone by punching and compression.The differences in hip Harris scores and visual analogue scores(VAS)of pain between the two groups at preoperative,6 months postoperative and 1 year postop-erative,and the patient treatment response and femoral head survival rate at 1 year postoperative were compared.Results All patients were followed-up,and the difference between the preoperative VAS score and Harris score of the two groups was not statistically significant(P＞0.05),and the VAS score and Harris score of the two groups were significantly improved at 6 months and 1 year after operation,and the BMP group was better than the allograft bone group,with significant difference(P＜0.05).At 1 year after surgery,the Harris hip score excellence rate of the BMP group was higher than that of the allograft bone group,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05);the femoral head survival rate of the BMP group was higher than that of the allograft bone group,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).Conclusions Core decompression combined with BMP activity induced rod implantation was effective in the treatment of early femoral head necrosis,which accelerated the induction of new bone formation,improved the quality of new bone,provided biomechanical support for the femoral head,and effectively avoided femoral head collapse.Moreover,it has good biocompatibility and couldbe degraded and absorbed in the body,which is worthy of clinical promotion.

Objective Metabolomics was used to analyze the changes of metabolites in the plasma of Fenpropathrin-contaminated rats to find potential biomarkers for forensic identification of Fenpropathrin poisoning.Methods SD rats in the two experimental groups were given 20.5 mg/kg and 41 mg/kg doses of fenpropathrin respectively by gavage.The rats in the control group were given equivalent volume of normal saline.The angular vein blood of rats was collected 24 hours after gavage,and endogenous small molecule metabolites in plasma were investigated by ultra-performance liquid chromatography-time-of-flight mass spectrometry(UPLC-TOF-MS).The data was processed by SIMCA14.1.The differential metabolites in plasma of fenpropathrin-infected rats were screened out according to the Variable Importance in Projection(VIP)and p<0.05 in the OPLS-DA model.Finally,the pathways were analyzed.Results There were significant differences in plasma metabolite levels between the control group and the experimental group,and 17 biomarkers were selected to identify whether the rats had received fenpropathrin,which mainly affected purine metabolism,Alanine,aspartate and glutamate metabolism,arginine biosynthesis,biosynthesis of unsaturated fatty acids and pyrimidine metabolism.Conclusion Fenpropathrin can change the composition of metabolites in rats,and the differential markers screened can provide supportive forensic evidence for cases related to deltamethrin poisoning.
