Students demonstrate high levels of recognition and satisfaction with the course.

“Bio-narrative integration” refers to the process in which a life subject with narrative consciousness actively reviews and reintegrates their life stories， or a subject lacking life and health narrative awareness， with the intervention of healthcare professionals， tells their own life stories and integrates them into a coherent and constantly evolving life narrative process. Starting from the keyword of bio-narrative integration， this paper proposed a classification model of narrative integration. From the perspective of life stages， it was divided into “phasic narrative integration” and “holistic narrative integration.” In terms of integrated narrative style， it was categorized as “positive narrative integration style” and “negative narrative integration style.” Regarding subjective initiative， it was classified as “active narrative integration regulation” and “passive narrative integration regulation.” Then it elaborated the significant value of narrative integration for every life subject， especially in pain relief， the improvement of life resilience， the healthy aging of the elderly， and the ultimate peace of the dying. It was advocated that healthcare practitioners should enhance their professional narrative competence， effectively guide patients to engage in bio-narrative integration regulation， and help them overcome narrative closure， thereby improving the quality of medical care.

Objective To explore the change pattern of quantitative parameters in contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CECT) scans during the cortical and nephrographic phases in patients with clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC), evaluate the diagnostic efficiency of these quantitative parameters in predicting the pathological grade of ccRCC preoperatively, and provide imaging reference for clinically evaluating preoperative disease severity and formulating individualized therapeutic regimens. Methods A retrospective analysis was performed on the clinical data of 84 patients with ccRCC treated in our hospital between September 2022 and September 2024. According to the World Health Organization/International Society of Urological Pathology (WHO/ISUP) pathological grading system, patients were divided into a high-grade group (n = 32) and a low-grade group (n = 52). CECT features and quantitative parameters were compared between the two groups. The relationships between CECT quantitative parameters and pathological grading in ccRCC patients were analyzed using Spearman correlation. The diagnostic value of these parameters for preoperative pathological grading was evaluated using receiver operating characteristic curves. Results The maximum tumor diameter and the proportion of tumors with blurred margins were higher in the high-grade group than in the low-grade group (P<0.05). The CT values, net enhancement values, and enhancement rates during both the cortical and nephrographic phases were lower in the high-grade group than in the low-grade group (P<0.05). Spearman correlation analysis showed that the CT values, net enhancement values, and enhancement rates during both the cortical and nephrographic phases were negatively correlated with preoperative pathological grades in ccRCC patients (P<0.05). Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis revealed that the area under the curve for preoperative pathological grading using the combination of cortical phase CT value, cortical phase net enhancement value, cortical phase enhancement rate, nephrographic phase CT value, nephrographic phase net enhancement value, and nephrographic phase enhancement rate was 0.912, which was higher than the areas for any individual parameter used alone (0.770, 0.748, 0.763, 0.751, 0.739, and 0.718, respectively; P<0.05). The sensitivity, specificity, and 95% confidence interval for the parameters used in combination were 96.88%, 69.23%, and 0.853-0.970, respectively. Conclusion CECT quantitative parameters were negatively correlated with pathological grades in patients with single ccRCC and demonstrated high diagnostic efficiency for pathological grading, providing a reference for clinical treatment planning.

Aerosol removal using flame-retardant atomized fixatives, as a major means of aerosol control, has achieved remarkable results in the field of nuclear facility decommissioning and decontamination. Traditional atomized fixatives for aerosol removal have deficiencies in high-temperature resistance and flame retardancy, rendering them inadequate for operational scenarios involving high temperatures and flammability encountered during nuclear decommissioning. This paper investigates the current development of flame-retardant atomized fixatives for aerosol removal both domestically and internationally and presents a preliminary exploration of this technology. The experiments showed that atomized fixatives modified with flame-retardant properties not only maintained excellent aerosol capture efficiency, but also exhibited significantly improved flame-retardant performance. This confirmed the technical feasibility of the proposed approach. Finally, suggestions and reflections are proposed for the development of this technology and its application in nuclear facility decommissioning.

OBJECTIVE To explore the inhibitory effect and its mechanism of asiaticoside on hypertrophic scar formation in rabbit ears based on the Wnt/ β -catenin pathway. METHODS The hypertrophic scar model in rabbit ears was established. Model rabbits were divided into the model group （normal saline）， asiaticoside low-dose group （12 mg/kg）， asiaticoside high-dose group （24 mg/kg）， and positive control group （tri amcinolone acetonide acetate 40 mg/kg）； additionally， a non-modeled control group （normal saline） was set up. There were 8 rabbits in each group. Rabbits in each group were injected with the corresponding drug solution/normal saline at the base within the scar area once daily for 28 consecutive days. After the last medication， the appearance of hypertrophic scars in rabbit ears was observed， and the hypertrophic scar index was measured； the levels of inflammatory factors [interleukin-6 （IL-6） and IL-10 ] in hypertrophic scar tissue of rabbits were determined； histopathological morphology of hypertrophic scar tissues in rabbit ears was observed， and the protein expression levels of collagen type Ⅰ （COLⅠ）， COLⅢ， Wnt4 and β -catenin in the hypertrophic scar tissues were detected. RESULTS Compared with control group， in the model group， the symptoms of hypertrophic scars were observed， the stratum corneum was thicker， and there was abnormal accumulation and disorganized arrangement of collagen. The hypertrophic scar index， IL-6 level， fibroblast density， area density of collagen fibers， mean optical density values of COLⅠ and COLⅢ， as well as the expression levels of Wnt4 and β -catenin proteins， were all significantly elevated （ P ＜0.05）， while the level of IL-10 was significantly decreased （ P ＜0.05）. Compared with the model group， the hypertrophic scars in asiaticoside low- and high-dose groups were significantly softened， with a thinned stratum corneum， and the above quantitative indicators were all significantly reversed （ P ＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS Asiaticoside can inhibit the formation of hypertrophic scars in rabbit ears and alleviate the inflammatory response in scar tissue. Its mechanism of action may be related to the inhibition of activation of the Wnt/ β -catenin pathway.

OBJECTIVE To predict and validate the mechanisms of Chaiqi yigan granules （CQYG） improving hepatocellular carcinoma （HCC）. METHODS The signaling pathways of CQYG intervention in HCC were predicted using network pharmacology. A mice model of transplanted hepatocellular carcinoma was established by injecting H22 hepatoma cells into the axilla. Successfully modeled mice were randomly divided into model group （normal saline）， sorafenib group （positive control， 50 mg/kg）， and CQYG low-， medium- and high-dose groups （24.83， 49.66， 99.32 g/kg）， with 10 mice in each group. Mice in each group were administered the corresponding drug solution or normal saline intragastrically， once a day， for 14 consecutive days. After last administration， pathological morphological changes in the tumor tissues of mice were observed in each group. Immunohistochemical staining was performed to detect the expression of the nuclear proliferation antigen Ki-67 in tumor tissues of mice. Western blot assay was used to measure the expression of proteins related to epithelial-mesenchymal transition （EMT） [N-cadherin， E-cadherin， Vimentin， matrix metalloproteinase 7 （MMP7）] and the mitogen-activated protein kinase （MAPK） signaling pathway [p38 MAPK， phosphorylated p38 MAPK， c-Jun N-terminal kinase （JNK）， phosphorylated JNK， extracellular regulated protein kinase 1/2 （ERK1/2）， phosphorylated ERK1/2] in tumor tissue of mice. RESULTS Network pharmacology analysis revealed that metabolic pathways， pathways in cancer， and the MAPK signaling pathway were key signaling pathways through which CQYG exert their anti-hepatocellular carcinoma effects. In animal experiments， the tumor tissues of mice in the model group exhibited dense tumor cells and vigorous growth. Compared with model group， CQYG high-dose group showed a decreased density of tumor cells in the tumor tissues of mice. Moreover， the expression levels of Ki-67， N-cadherin， MMP7 and Vimentin proteins， along with the phosphorylation levels of ERK1/2 and JNK proteins， were all significantly reduced （ P ＜0.05）. The expression level of E-cadherin protein was significantly increased （ P ＜0.05）， the phosphorylation level of p38 MAPK protein was increased， the difference was not statistically significant （ P ＞0.05）. CONCLUSIONS CQYG can inhibit EMT by regulating the MAPK signaling pathway， thereby suppressing tumor cell invasion and metastasis and ultimately exerting a therapeutic effect in improving HCC.

Objective: To investigate the preventive and reparative mechanisms of platelet-rich plasma-biodegradable quick setting spray (PRP-BQSS) on solar dermatitis, thereby providing a safe and effective novel therapeutic approach for clinical application. Methods: PRP-BQSS was prepared. A ultraviolet B (UVB)-induced solar dermatitismodel was established in SPF-grade male SD rats. The rats were divided into the prevention experiment (treated with PRP-BQSS, L' Oréal SPF 50+sunscreen, Nature's Hall SPF 50+sunscreen, or saline) and the treatment experiment (treated with PRP-BQSS, Jingwanhong ointment, Green ointment, or saline). The effects were evaluated by measuring epidermal thickness (HE staining) and quantifying the integrated optical density (IOD) of inflammatory cells (CD11b staining). One-way ANOVA and Tukey's HSD test were performed using GraphPad Prism 9.4.0. Results: The PRP-BQSS exhibited significant efficacy in both prevention and repair. In the prevention experiment, the PRP-BQSS prevention group (Group A) showed only mild pale red erythema on the dorsal skin of rats, without significant swelling or desquamation. Histological analysis revealed that epidermal thickness in Group A (36.55±6.58 μm) was comparable to Groups B (L' Oréal, 34.84±6.59 μm) and C (Natural Hall, 34.59±8.20 μm)(P>0.05), but significantly lower than that in Group D (control group, 47.82±11.69 μm). Skin sections from Group A demonstrated intact epidermal structure with clear stratification and no significant inflammatory cell infiltration. The CD11b-positive cell count (24.30±7.43) was significantly lower than that in Group D (33.65±8.47, P<0.05). In the treatment experiment, HE staining of Group A (PRP-BQSS treatment group) showed intact epidermal structure with orderly arrangement of the basal layer, spinous layer, and granular layer, thin and uniform stratum corneum, and regular collagen fiber arrangement. The epidermal thickness of Group A (37.10±6.41 μm) showed no significant difference from Groups B (Jingwanhong ointment group, 38.66±9.07 μm) or C (Green ointment group, 35.72±4.98 μm)(P>0.05), but was significantly lower than that in Group D (control group, 48.35±8.99 μm)(P<0.05). The integral optical density value of CD11b-positive cells in Group A (32.82±11.01) was significantly lower than that in Group D (47.25±13.52, P>0.05). Moreover, the degree of inflammatory infiltration in Group A was relatively lower compared to Group B (37.14±9.20) and Group C (34.32±16.87), suggesting a superior repair capacity. However, the intergroup differences were not statistically significant (P>0.05). Conclusion: PRP-BQSS hydrogel dressing possesses dual preventive and reparative functions. It exerts its effects by reducing CD11b-positive cell infiltration (inflammation suppression) and promoting the orderly arrangement of the basal layer-epidermal layer-granular layer (epidermal reconstruction). This material holds promise as a novel and effective therapeutic approach for the prevention and treatment of solar dermatitis, particularly suitable for high-risk populations such as children, individuals with sensitive skin, and those engaged in outdoor activities.

The Measures for the Administration of Healthcare Organizations Conducting Investigator-Initiated Trials stipulates that conducting interventional research and observational research that accept additional examinations， tests， diagnostics， and other measures beyond the needs of routine diagnosis and treatment or disease prevention and control， which may pose risks exceeding the minimal risk， must undergo both scientific and ethical reviews. Currently， these two reviews tend to be poorly interfaced and inefficient. This paper analyzed the connections and differences between scientific review and ethical review of investigator-initiated trials （IITs）. It also elaborated the existing issues in the process of interfacing scientific review and ethical review from five aspects， encompassing an immature management system， insufficient awareness of scientific review， failure to understand the different purposes of duplicative review on certain contents， unclear review criteria， and limited professional knowledge and a lack of communication among committee members. Recommendations were proposed from eight dimensions， namely， improving the management system and regulatory measures， coordinating the review time， unifying the document submission checklist， establishing an information system for clinical research management， enhancing training for investigators， providing cross-disciplinary training for committee members， improving the communication mechanisms， and jointly developing the review elements for scientific issues. The aim was to facilitate the efficient interface between scientific review and ethical review for IITs， thereby enhancing the quality and efficiency of IIT management.

Building a harmonious doctor-patient relationship reflects the people’s expectations and society’s aspirations. It is an important factor related to the well-being of the population and the implementation of the healthy China strategy. The theory of intersubjectivity focuses on responding to the relationship between subjects. Based on the principles of interactivity， liveliness， and dialogue rationality， it highlights equal interaction， mutual understanding， and effective dialogue between subjects. Applying the intersubjectivity theory to the construction of a harmonious doctor-patient relationship can help to break the behavioral paradigm of the doctor-patient subject-object dichotomy， highlighting the true freedom of the doctor-patient dual subjects. From the perspective of intersubjectivity， a harmonious doctor-patient relationship is generated from intersubjective behavior， facilitated by pre-understanding between subjects， and realized through effective dialogue between subjects. In the real world， the obfuscation of subjective rationality， the division of cognitive structure， and the uneven demands of interest between doctors and patients eliminate the inherent mechanisms of a harmonious doctor-patient relationship. This leads to multiple practical dilemmas， such as a “subject-object” one-dimensional thinking mode， a “professional-life” structural cognitive difference， and “reason-sensibility” dislocation dialogue styles presented between doctors and patients. Promoting the transformation of doctor-patient interactive thinking form， the integration of their communication perspectives， and the enhancement of dialogue skills can help to achieve mutual understanding in cognition， mutual trust and empathy in emotions， and harmonious alignment in actions. Therefore， to address these dilemmas， this paper proposed a path by embedding intersubjectivity theory， strengthening bidirectional doctor-patient interaction， emphasizing doctor-patient illness narratives， bridging doctor-patient cognitive differences， focusing on improving subjective competencies， and enhancing doctor-patient humanistic care.

ObjectiveTo observe the effects of Yangjing Zhongyutang （YJZYT） on mitochondrial biogenesis and oxidative stress damage mediated by the silent information regulator 1 （SIRT1）/peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator-1alpha （PGC-1α） signaling pathway in cyclophosphamide （CTX）-induced rats with diminished ovarian reserve （DOR）， and to explore its mechanism in improving ovarian reserve function and follicular development. MethodsForty-two 8-week-old female SD rats with normal estrous cycles were randomly divided into a blank control group （n=7） and a model group （n=35）. Rats in the model group received a single intraperitoneal injection of CTX （90 mg·kg^-1） to establish the DOR model. After modeling， estrous cycles were monitored for 7 consecutive days， and model success was confirmed based on criteria for estrous cycle disruption. After successful modeling， rats were divided into groups for intervention： estradiol valerate group （0.09 mg·kg^-1）， and YJZYT high-， medium-， and low-dose groups （19.98， 9.99， 5.00 g·kg^-1）. The blank control group and model group were given an equal volume of distilled water by gavage. All groups received daily gavage once for 4 consecutive weeks. The general state， body weight， and ovarian wet weight of rats were observed and recorded， and the ovarian organ index was calculated. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA） was used to measure serum levels of follicle-stimulating hormone （FSH）， luteinizing hormone （LH）， estradiol （E₂）， anti-Müllerian hormone （AMH）， superoxide dismutase （SOD）， and glutathione peroxidase （GSH-Px）. Hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining was performed to observe ovarian histomorphological changes and follicular development status. Immunofluorescence was used to detect reactive oxygen species （ROS） expression levels. Colorimetric assays were employed to measure adenosine triphosphate （ATP） and malondialdehyde （MDA） content in ovarian tissues. Quantitative Real-time polymerase chain reaction （Real-time PCR） was used to detect mitochondrial DNA （mtDNA） copy number and the mRNA expression levels of key genes including SIRT1， PGC-1α， nuclear respiratory factor 1 （NRF1）， and mitochondrial transcription factor A （TFAM）. Western blot was performed to detect the protein expression levels of SIRT1， PGC-1α， NRF1， and TFAM. ResultsCompared with the blank group， rats in the model group exhibited disrupted estrous cycles， obviously reduced body weight， and decreased ovarian index （P<0.05）. Ovarian histopathology revealed cortical thinning， loose structure， and a significant reduction in both primordial and growing follicles （P<0.01）. Serum FSH and LH levels were significantly elevated （P<0.01）， while E₂ and AMH levels were obviously reduced （P<0.05， P<0.01）. ATP content and mtDNA copy number decreased in ovarian tissue （P<0.01）， ROS expression increased， MDA levels rose， while SOD and GSH-Px activities obviously decreased （P<0.05， P<0.01）， mRNA and protein expression levels of SIRT1， PGC-1α， NRF1， and TFAM were obviously downregulated （P<0.05， P<0.01）. After treatment， compared with the model group， body weight and ovarian index obviously recovered in rats administered various doses of YJZYT （P<0.05）， serum E₂ and AMH levels increased， while FSH and LH levels obviously decreased （P<0.05， P<0.01）， ovarian tissue ATP content and mtDNA copy number were up-regulated， ROS and MDA levels decreased， and antioxidant enzymes SOD and GSH-Px activity obviously increased （P<0.05， P<0.01）， Gene and protein expression levels related to the SIRT1/PGC-1α /NRF1/TFAM signaling pathway were obviously up-regulated compared to the model group （P<0.05， P<0.01）， HE staining revealed that ovarian structure gradually recovered to integrity in all treatment groups， with a obviously increase in the number of primordial and growing follicles （P<0.05， P<0.01）. Granulosa cells were neatly arranged， indicating marked improvement in ovarian function. ConclusionYJZYT may improve ovarian function and follicular development in rats with diminished ovarian reserve by activating the SIRT1/PGC-1α signaling pathway， promoting mitochondrial biogenesis， enhancing mitochondrial function， and alleviating oxidative stress damage.
