Objective To study the application effects of a hypertension self-management intervention program based on the chronic illness trajectory framework(CITF).Methods A total of 100 hypertension pa-tients treated at Qiandongnan Miao and Dong Autonomous Prefecture People's Hospital and hypertension management demonstration sites from July 2023 to July 2024 were selected as study subjects.They were ran-domly divided into a study group and a control group(50 cases in each group)using a random number table method.The control group received conventional intervention,including basic measures such as hypertension education,dietary management,psychological counseling,medication guidance,and blood pressure monitoring.The study group received a personalized self-management intervention program based on CITF.Blood pres-sure,medication adherence,hypertension knowledge level,and chronic disease management self-efficacy were compared between the two groups at baseline(before intervention)and 3 months after intervention(after in-tervention).Results After the intervention,systolic and diastolic blood pressure decreased in both groups compared to pre-intervention levels,with the study group showing lower values than the control group(P<0.05).The scores of hypertension knowledge level scale(HK-LS),MMAS-8,and chronic disease management self-efficacy scale increased in both groups compared to pre-intervention levels,with the study group scoring higher than the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion The CITF-based self-intervention program effectively improves patients'blood pressure levels,enhances health knowledge level,medication adherence,and chronic disease self-management efficacy,promoting proactive disease coping and strengthened self-management.

Objective:To compare and analyze the efficacy of bilateral and unilateral posterior vocal cord resection with CO 2 laser under endoscopy in the treatment of bilateral vocal cord paralysis. Methods:This case series study retrospectively analyzed the data of 110 patients with bilateral vocal cord paralysis who underwent endoscopic CO 2 laser posterior cordotomy at the Department of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery, the First Affiliated Hospital of Naval Medical University, from October 2016 to January 2023. The cohort consisted of 36 males [mean age (45.5±9.1) years, range 24-72 years] and 74 females [mean age (47.2±10.1) years, range 22-67 years]. Among them, 47 patients underwent simultaneous bilateral posterior cordotomy (bilateral cordotomy group), while 63 patients underwent unilateral posterior cordotomy (unilateral cordotomy group). Pre-and postoperative indicators, including swallowing function, glottal size, and vocal function (subjective and objective assessments), were compared between the two surgical approaches. The Wilcoxon signed-rank test was used to analyze changes in swallowing function, glottal size, and vocal function (subjective and objective assessments) within each group before and after surgery, whereas the Mann-Whitney U test was utilized to assess differences between groups. Results:Postoperative follow-up was 1-5 years [median follow-up time was 1.6 (1.3, 2.0) years].The one-time extubation rate was 71.4%(45/63)in the unilateral posterior vocal cord resection group and 87.2%(41/47)in the bilateral posterior vocal cord resection group, significantly higher in the bilateral group ( χ2=3.94, P<0.05). One week after surgery, the swallowing function score of unilateral cordotomy group was 2 (1, 2.5) points, which was significantly better than that of bilateral cordotomy group [2 (1.5, 3) points, Z=-2.118, P<0.05], and the swallowing function score of both groups returned to normal 3 months after surgery. There were no significant differences in preoperative glottic closure during inhalation, auditory perceptual evaluation (GRBAS), objective voice analysis, and Voice Handicap Index-10 (VHI-10) between the two groups ( P>0.05). Postoperatively, the maximum transverse diameter of the posterior glottis during inspiration in the unilateral cordotomy group was 4.49 (4.24, 4.77) mm, significantly smaller than that in the bilateral cordotomy group, which was 5.05 (4.52, 5.62) mm ( Z=-4.103, P<0.05). Among the GRBAS parameters, G (grade of hoarseness), B (breathiness), and A (asthenia), as well as VHI-10 scores and objective voice analysis parameters [jitter, shimmer, harmonic-noise ratio (HNR), and maximum phonation time (MPT)], were significantly better in the unilateral cordotomy group compared to the bilateral cordotomy group, with statistically significant differences ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Unilateral posterior vocal cord resection using CO 2 laser is simple and feasible for the treatment of bilateral vocal cord paralysis, with shorter recovery time, maximal preservation of laryngeal phonatory function, and fewer complications compared to bilateral resection. However, the one-time extubation rate is higher with bilateral resection, reducing the need for a second surgery and associated patient discomfort. This study offers guidance for clinical decision-making in the surgical management of bilateral vocal cord paralysis.

Objective:To explore the application of microvascular flow imaging (MVFI) combined with high-frequency ultrasonography in children with haemophilic arthropathy A (HAA).Methods:Retrospective study.A total of 82 children diagnosed with HAA in the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from October 2018 to October 2020 were recruited.The elbow, knee and ankle joints of each child were examined by high-frequency ultrasonography.The numbers of thickened synovial joints were recorded.Blood flow signals of the thickening of synovial joints was checked by the MVFI and power Doppler ultrasound (PDUS), respectively.Color flow signals were graded by the semi-quantitative scoring systems.The chi- square test and independent multi-group ordinal multi-category rank-sum test were used to compare the differences of MVFI and PDUS in the display of thickened synovial blood flow. Results:A total of 254 joints were involved in 82 children with HAA, including synovial hypertrophy in 188 joints, hydrops articuli in 146 joints, fibrotic septa in 66 joints, cartilage damage in 63 joints, haemosider indeposition in 45 joints, bone erosion in 25 joints, osteophytes in 15 joints and bone remodeling in 8 joints.Grade Ⅱ synovial thickened joints were the most common.The proportion of blood flow signals detected by PDUS in thickened synovial membranes was significantly higher than that detected MVFI (52.66% vs.70.21%, χ2=12.225, P<0.05). Numbers of grade 0 and Ⅰ joints with thickened synovial membranes detected by MVFI were less than those of PDUS, while the opposite result was obtained in detecting grade Ⅱ and Ⅲ joints ( H=21.158, P<0.05). Compared with PDUS, MVFI more sensitively visualized the blood flow of the thickened synovial membrane. Conclusions:MVFI can more prominently detect the thickened synovial blood flow in children with HAA.A combined application of MVFI and high-frequency ultrasonography contributes to the evaluation of children with HAA.

Endogenous ribonucleotides(RNs)and deoxyribonucleotides(dRNs)are important metabolites related to the pathogenesis of many diseases.In light of their physiological and pathological significances,a novel and sensitive pre-column derivatization method with N-(t-butyldimethylsilyl)-N-methyltri-fluoroacetamide(MTBSTFA)was developed to determine RNs and dRNs in human cells using high-performance liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry(HPLC-MS/MS).A one-step extraction of cells with 85％methanol followed by a simple derivatization reaction within 5 min at room temper-ature contributed to shortened analysis time.The derivatives of 22 nucleoside mono-,di-and tri-phosphates were retained on the typical Cig column and eluted by ammonium acetate and acetonitrile in 9 min.Under these optimal conditions,good linearity was achieved in the tested calibration ranges.The lower limit of quantitation(LLOQ)was determined to be 0.1-0.4 μM for the tested RNs and 0.001-0.1 μM for dRNs.In addition,the precision(CV)was＜15％and the RSD of stability was lower than 10.4％.Furthermore,this method was applied to quantify the endogenous nucleotides in human colorectal carcinoma cell lines HCT116 exposed to 10-hydroxycamptothecin.In conclusion,our method has proven to be simple,rapid,sensitive,and reliable.It may be used for specific expanded studies on intracellular pharmacology in vitro.
