Objective To address the limitations of conventional physics-informed neural network(PINN)in handling hemodynamic boundary constraints,an improved hard boundary-constrained PINN(HBC-PINN)framework was proposed to achieve precise prediction of blood flow fields within stenotic arteries.Methods An idealized stenosed vessel geometry model was established and computational fluid dynamic simulation was performed to obtain a validation dataset.Appropriate boundary dependent trial functions were designed according to the hard constraint method to embed the flow boundary conditions into the network output.Thus,an HBC-PINN model with the hard boundary constraint method was constructed to predict the velocity field and pressure field of stenosed blood flow.Meanwhile,an original PINN model with the soft constraint method was also built for comparison.By evaluating the accuracy of the two models on the validation dataset,the capability of the HBC-PINN model to simulate hemodynamics without using any labeled data for training was verified.Results The effectiveness of the HBC-PINN method in predicting hemodynamic parameters in stenosed blood flow tasks was validated.The relative L2 errors of the flow velocity and pressure predicted by the HBC-PINN in two different stenosis scenarios were both lower than 0.5％,representing an improvement of over 48.8％in accuracy compared to the original PINN model.Additionally,the prediction accuracy of the transverse velocity also increased by more than 35.4％.Conclusions Implementing hard constraints on boundary conditions in the PINN modeling process can effectively improve the prediction accuracy of hemodynamic parameters and the efficiency of model solving.

Aim To explore the effect of hydroxysafflor yellow A(HSYA)on lipocalin 2(LCN2)-induced fer-roptosis in HT22 cells and the related mechanism.Methods Thirty male Sprague-Dawley(SD)rats were used to establish the middle cerebral artery occlu-sion/reperfusion(MCAO/R)model by the suture method.The rats were randomly divided into the Sham group,the MCAO/R group,and the MCAO/R+HSYA group.The infarct area was measured by TTC staining,and the degree of neurological deficit was evaluated by the Z-Longa scoring method.The expressions of LCN2 and 24P3R in brain tissues were detected by Western blot.LCN2 protein was added to HT-22 cells,and the cells were divided into the normal group,the LCN2 group,and the LCN2+HSYA group.The optimal con-centration of LCN2-induced neuronal ferroptosis was screened by LDH assay and Western blot,and the ex-pression levels of ferritin,FPN1,GPX4,SLC7A11,COX2,and 24P3R were detected.LCN2 was knocked down by siRNA transfection,and the expressions of GPX4 and ferritin were detected.The contents of glu-tathione(GSH),malondialdehyde(MDA),GPX4,and Fe2+were determined by colorimetry,and the expres-sion of GPX4 was detected by immunofluorescence.The binding force between HSYA and LCN2 was ana-lyzed by molecular docking technology.Results Ani-mal experiments showed that HSYA could reduce the cerebral infarction area and decrease the neurological function score of MCAO/R rats.Compared with the sham group,the levels of LCN2 and 24P3R increased in the MCAO/R group,while HSYA inhibited their ex-pressions.Cell experiments showed that the optimal concentration of LCN2 to induce ferroptosis in HT22 cells was 2 μmol·L-1.After knocking down LCN2 by siRNA transfection,compared with the LCN2 group,the expression levels of GPX4 and ferritin in the siLCN2 group increased significantly.Compared with the nor-mal group,the expressions of SLC7A11,GPX4,FPN1,ferritin,and GSH in the LCN2 group decreased signifi-cantly,while the concentration of Fe2+,and the expres-sions of MDA,COX2,and 24P3R increased.HSYA could increase the expressions of SLC7A11,GPX4,FPN1,ferritin,and GSH,reduce the contents of Fe2+and MDA,and inhibit the expressions of COX2 and 24P3R.Molecular docking showed that the binding en-ergy between HSYA and LCN2 was-8.0 kJ·mol-1.Conclusion HSYA can inhibit LCN2-induced ferrop-tosis in HT22 cells through the SLC7A11/GPX4 signa-ling pathway.

Objective:To explore the safety and efficacy of intraosseous regional administration (IORA) of vancomycin for preventing infection in primary total knee arthroplasty (TKA).Methods:A total of 124 patients with knee osteoarthritis undergoing TKA between February 2024 and May 2024 at nine hospitals were enrolled. Preoperative infection prophylaxis involved either IORA (0.5 g vancomycin administered via intraosseous regional infusion before incision) or intravenous infusion (1 g vancomycin via peripheral vein). The IORA group included 15 males and 47 females with a median age of 66.5 years (range, 60.0-70.0 years), while the intravenous group included 14 males and 48 females with a median age of 66.0 years (range, 61.8-70.3 years) years. Intraoperative samples were collected including fat and synovium tissues after incision, before prosthesis placement, and after tourniquet release; distal femoral cancellous bone during femoral osteotomy; proximal tibial cancellous bone during tibial osteotomy; proximal intercondylar cancellous bone before prosthesis placement; and peripheral blood from non-infused arms at surgery initiation and after tourniquet release. Vancomycin concentrations were measured using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. Vital sign changes were recorded from admission to 5~10 minutes post-IORA (IORA group) or post-incision (intravenous group). Follow-ups were conducted on postoperative day 1 and 3, and at 1 and 3 months, to document complications including IORA-related adverse events, periprosthetic joint infections, surgical site infections, red man syndrome, acute kidney injury, deep vein thrombosis and so on.Results:Vancomycin concentrations in bone, fat, and synovial tissue samples were significantly higher in the IORA group than in the intravenous group ( P<0.05), while vancomycin concentrations in blood samples were significantly lower in the IORA group than in the intravenous group ( P<0.05). Only 7.3%(41/558) of tissue samples in the IORA group had vancomycin concentrations below 2.0 μg/g (the minimum inhibitory concentration of vancomycin against coagulase-negative staphylococcus), compared to 59.3%(331/558) in the intravenous group (χ 2=11.285, P<0.001). In the intravenous group, 16.9%(21/124) of blood samples had vancomycin concentrations exceeding 15.0 mg/L (the threshold associated with a significantly increased risk of nephrotoxicity), while all concentrations in the IORA group were below this threshold, the difference was statistically significant (χ 2=22.943, P<0.001). There were no statistically significant difference ( P>0.05) in vital signs changes before and after vancomycin administration between the two groups. Two patients in the intravenous group experienced incision exudate, while no other related complications occurred in either group. Conclusions:Compared to the traditional intravenous infusion of 1 g vancomycin, intraosseous injection of a low dose (0.5 g) of vancomycin achieves higher local tissue concentrations in the knee joint with a lower incidence of adverse reactions and is safe for infection prophylaxis. Despite guidelines not recommending the routine use of vancomycin for preventing infection after primary TKA, intraosseous injection of 0.5 g vancomycin may be considered intraoperatively for primary TKA in the following scenarios: patients in medical institutions with a high prevalence of methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) infections, patients with potential preoperative MRSA colonization, or patients with cephalosporin allergy.

Objective:To analyze the influencing factors of extremely high cost cases under disease diagnosis related grouping (DRG) payment, for references for further improving China′s medical insurance payment system.Methods:The inpatient medical record homepage and medical insurance settlement list data of medical insurance settlement cases in a tertiary hospital in 2022 were Collected; 19 potential influencing factors such as gender, age, and hospitalization status were used as independent variables, and extremely high cost cases as dependent variables. Single factor analysis and directed acyclic graphs were used to screen for independent variables; Logistic regression model was used to analyze the influencing factors of extremely high cost cases.Results:A total of 17 028 hospitalized patients were contained, including 815 cases with extremely high costs. After analysis, the older the age, the greater the positive impact on cases with extremely high costs ( P<0.001); Third/fourth level surgery had a positive impact on these cases ( P<0.05); Emergency/critical hospitalization negative impact on extremely high cost cases ( P<0.001); Coding downgrade, surgical, intensive care unit discharge, and death positive impact cases with extremely high costs ( P<0.001); The higher the proportion of drugs, the greater the positive impact on cases with extremely high costs ( P<0.001); Compared with treatment costs accounting for ≤10%, treatment costs accounting for (10%, 30%] had a positive impact on cases with extremely high costs ( P<0.001), while treatment costs accounting for >30% had a negative impact ( P=0.007); Complications and/or comorbidities negative impact on thses cases ( P<0.001); The higher the weight of the disease group, the greater the negative impact on cases with extremely high costs ( P<0.001). Conclusions:There were many influencing factors for extremely high cost cases, among which factors such as advanced age, emergency/critical hospital admission, third/fourth level surgery, code downgrade, and high drug proportion would increase the number of extremely high cost cases, accompanied by complications and/or comorbidities, and the high weight of disease group reduce the number of extremely high cost cases. Medical institutions should strengthen internal management by standardizing admission management and optimizing the structure of hospitalization expenses; The medical insurance management department should focus on improving the DRG grouping scheme, scientifically setting the weight of disease groups, and jointly promoting the reform of China′s medical insurance payment system.
