OBJECTIVE:
To explore the implementation effect of hour-1 bundle for sepsis patients based on crisis resource management (CRM) system.
METHODS:
A historical control study was conducted. The hour-1 bundle for sepsis based on CRM was used to train 24 nurses in the emergency department from October 2022 to March 2023. Clinical data of sepsis patients admitted to the emergency department of the First People's Hospital of Zunyi from April 2022 to September 2023 were collected. The patients were divided into three groups based on different stages of CRM system construction: control group (before construction, from April to September in 2022), improvement group (during construction, from October 2022 to March 2023) and observation group (after construction, from April to September in 2023). The baseline data, implementation rate of hour-1 bundle [including blood culture, antibiotic usage, blood lactic acid (Lac) detection, fluid resuscitation, hypertensors usage], identification and diagnosis time, and prognosis parameters [including correction rate of hypoxemia, intensive care unit (ICU) occupancy rate, and 28-day survival rate]. Sepsis cognition survey and non-technical skill (NTS) evaluation of nurses in emergency department were conducted before and after training.
RESULTS:
Finally 43 cases were enrolled in the control group, improvement group and observation group, respectively. There was no statistically significant difference in baseline data including the gender, age, primary site, heart rate, systolic blood pressure, acute physiology and chronic health evaluation II (APACHE II) score, sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) score, mechanical ventilation ratio among the three groups with comparability. With the gradual improvement of the CRM system, the implementation rate of 1-hour bundle was gradually increased, and the implementation rate in the control group, improvement group and observation group were 65.12% (28/43), 74.42% (32/43) and 88.37% (38/43), respectively, with statistically significant difference (P < 0.05). It was mainly reflected in the completion rate of blood culture, antibiotic usage rate, Lac detection rate and hypertensors usage rate within 1 hour, which were significantly higher in the observation group than those in the control group [completion rate of blood culture: 90.70% (39/43) vs. 62.79% (27/43), antibiotic usage rate: 88.37% (38/43) vs. 60.47% (26/43), Lac detection rate: 93.02% (40/43) vs. 72.09% (31/43), hypertensors usage rate: 88.37% (38/43) vs. 60.47% (26/43), all P < 0.05]. The fluid resuscitation rates within 1 hour in the three groups were all over 90%, with no statistically significant difference among the three groups. The recognition and diagnosis time in the observation group was significantly shorter than that in the control group and the improvement group (hours: 0.41±0.15 vs. 0.61±0.21, 0.51±0.18, both P < 0.05), the correction rate of hypoxemia and 28-day survival rate were significantly higher than those in the control group [correction rate of hypoxemia: 95.35% (41/43) vs. 74.42% (32/43), 28-day survival rate: 83.72% (36/43) vs. 60.47% (26/43), both P < 0.05], and ICU occupancy rate was significantly lower than that in the control group [72.09% (31/43) vs. 93.02% (40/43), P < 0.05]. After training in the CRM system, the score of the sepsis awareness survey questionnaire for emergency department nurses was significantly increased as compared with before training (60.42±5.29 vs. 44.17±9.21, P < 0.01), and NTS also showed significant improvement.
CONCLUSION
CRM plays a significant role in promoting the implementation of sepsis hour-1 bundle, which can improve the implementation rate of hour-1 bundle and NTS of medical staff, effectively improve patients' hypoxemia, reduce patients' ICU occupancy rate and 28-day risk of death.

At 3, 6 and 12 months after treatment, the VAS score in both group decreased gradually, and the scores in observation group were lower than those in control group [(4.35±0.88) points vs. (4.71±0.75) points, (3.21±0.73) points vs. (3.63±0.82) points, (2.64±0.51) points vs. (3.16±0.64) points, all P<0.05]. Before treatment, there was no statistically significant difference in menstrual patterns between the two groups of patients ( P>0.05). After 12 months of treatment, the proportion of normal menstrual patterns in the implant group was higher than that in the sustained-release group [68.9% (31/45) vs. 46.7% (21/45), χ2=4.56, P=0.033], while the proportion of frequent bleeding was lower than that in the sustained-release group [6.7% (3/45) vs. 22.2% (10/45), χ2=4.41, P=0.036]. There was no statistical significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions between the two groups during treatment [8.9% (4/45) vs. 11.1% (5/45), χ2=0.00, P=1.000]. Conclusion:Compared with LNG-IUS, etonogestrel can more effectively improve the uterine conditions, relieve the dysmenorrhea symptoms, and improve the blood related indicators, and with high safety.

Although low temperature plasma ablation technology has significant advantages in clinical applications,its poor stability,high power consumption and thermal injuries to the tissues are still key factors limiting its widespread use.To address these issues,a device that uses bipolar pulses to excite plasma is developed,and it can flexibly adjust its output voltage,frequency and duty cycle,effectively reducing breakdown voltage and power consumption.By conducting simulation and saltwater discharge experiments,the excitation process of plasma is elaborated in detail.Meanwhile,the effects of two different pulse excitation modes on plasma excitation are discussed and compared.The results show that the bipolar pulse excitation mode is advantageous in reducing discharge current and breakdown voltage,and shortening the formation time of the vapor layer,which effectively relieves thermal injuries to the tissues.Finally,the broad application potential of the plasma ablation device is demonstrated in plasma ablation experiments which are conducted at different voltages,with pork as the experimental material.The study provides a new theoretical basis and practical guidance for the application of plasma ablation technology in minimally invasive surgery.

Objective:To investigate the clinical effects of the anterolateral thigh perforator flaps transplantation in repairing the wounds after radical resection of skin malignant tumors in the head, face, and neck.Methods:This study was a retrospective observational study. From May 2020 to December 2023, 27 patients with skin malignant tumors in the head, face, and neck were admitted to the Department of Burns and Plastic Surgery of the First People's Hospital of Kashi Prefecture, including 19 males and 8 females, aged 53 to 89 years. There were 21 cases with squamous cell carcinoma and 6 cases with basal cell carcinoma. The wound area after radical resection of tumors was 9.0 cm×7.0 cm to 27.0 cm×21.5 cm. The wounds were repaired with the lobulated, combined, or various forms of combination of the anterolateral thigh perforator flaps, and the harvesting flap area in single donor site was 10.0 cm×8.0 cm to 27.0 cm×11.0 cm. The wounds in the flap donor sites were closed by suturing in 26 patients, while the wound in the flap donor site in 1 patient was repaired with medium-thickness skin graft in the lower leg. The survival of the flap, and the occurrence of vascular crisis and infection were observed after surgery. During follow-up after surgery, the tumor recurrence, shape and texture of the flaps, and the function and scar formation of the limbs where the donor site was located were observed.Results:Only one patient developed venous crisis of the flap 27 hours after surgery, and the flap survived after vascular exploration and reanastomosis of the vein; the flaps in the other patients survived after surgery. One patient had an infected effusion under the flap after surgery, which healed after dressing change. After 6-36 months of postoperative follow-up, no tumor recurrence was observed; the flap had good appearance, texture, and elasticity; the limb where the donor site was located functioned normally, with only linear scars left.Conclusions:For complex wounds after radical resection of skin malignant tumors in the head, face, and neck, different forms of anterolateral thigh perforator flaps can be used to repair the wounds according to the condition of the wounds, and the wounds in the recipient sites heal well after surgery, with minimal damage to the donor site.

Objective:To design a single-line low-temperature plasma ablation electrode, aiming to solve the problem of uniform, continuous and stable microbubbles generated by conventional electrodes, and improve the ablation and cutting effect of low-temperature plasma.Methods:The structures of low temperature plasma three-wire electrode and single-line electrode were modeled in SolidWorks 2021 3D modeling software, and the prototype was made by 3D printing. The finite element analysis of electric field and temperature field of the two kinds of electrode ablation process was carried out by COMSOL Multiphysics 6.1 software, and the validity and correctness of the finite element simulation model were verified by temperature test experiment, and the ablation effect and plasma excitation process of the two kinds of electrode were compared by tissue ablation experiment and low temperature plasma excitation experiment.Results:The results of finite element analysis showed that the maximum surface temperature of three-wire electrode and single-wire electrode were 70.2 and 63.3 ℃, respectively, and the surface temperature of single-wire electrode was more ideal, and the maximum electric field intensity of the two electrodes was more than 1.0 × 10 7 V/m, which met the electric field condition of microbubble breakdown. The electric field intensity of the two ends of the three-wire electrode was much higher than that of the other regions, while the electric field intensity of the single-wire electrode had no obvious sudden change and fluctuation. The experimental values of the temperature at the electrode surface and a distance of 1 cm on the electrode surface were basically consistent with the simulation values, the degree of fit was good, and the relative error was 3.2%. The highest ablation temperature of single linear electrode on pig fat was 46.8 ℃. After ablation, there was no coking area in morphology, and the tissue cutting depth of 0.5 mm could be reached in 1 s. When connected to the energy platform, microbubbles would occur on the working electrode surface of the single-wire electrode; when 6 ms was electrified, the working electrode surface was completely covered by microbubbles; when 9 ms was energized, the low-temperature plasma was excited and the blue-purple plasma could be seen; when 25 ms was energized, the microbubbles were still regular and stable. Conclusions:A kind of single-line low-temperature plasma ablation electrode is designed, which can produce uniform, continuous and stable microbubbles and achieve better ablation and cutting effect than the traditional electrode.

Objective:To explore the mechanism of miR-15b-5p involving in depression-like behavior in Parkinson's disease (PD).Methods:(1) Eighteen C57BL/6N mice were randomly divided into PD group, intervention group and control group ( n=6). PD models in PD group were established by stereotaxically injecting 0.25 mg/kg rotenone into the right striatum; mice in the intervention group were injected with 0.25 mg/kg rotenone and miR-15b-5p inhibitor lentivirus, while mice in the control group were injected with equal volume of PBS. Four weeks after that, open field test and rotarod test were performed to evaluate the motor ability, and sucrose preference and forced swimming tests were performed to evaluate the depression-like behaviors. And then, proteins and miRNAs in the substantia nigra were extracted; real-time fluorescent quantitative reverse transcription PCR (qRT-PCR) was used to detect the miR-15b-5p expression,and Western blotting and immunofluorescent staining were used to detect the tyrosine hydroxylase (TH), brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), tropomyosin receptor kinase B (TrkB), and postsynaptic density protein 95 (PSD95) protein expressions. (2) The 100 nmol/L miR-15b-5p mimic/inhibitor and their negative control sequences were transfected into SH-SY5Y cells on 6-well plates (named miR-15b-5p mimic group, miR-15b-5p mimic control group, miR-15b-5p inhibitor group and miR-15b-5p inhibitor control group, respectively); 48 h after that, BDNF, TrkB and PSD95 protein expressions were detected by Western blotting and miR-15b-5p expression by qRT-PCR. (3) The 100 ng BDNF 3'-UTR wild-type or mutant luciferase reporter vector plasmids and 100 nmol/L miR-15b-5p mimic/inhibitor or their negative control sequences were co-transfected into SH-SY5Y cells on 24-well plates, and luciferase reporter activity assay was performed 48 h after co-transfection to detect the luciferase activity. Results:(1) Compared with the control group, the PD group had significantly reduced movement speed, shortened rotarod drop latency, decreased percentage of sucrose preference, and prolonged immobility time ( P<0.05); compared with the PD group, the intervention group had significantly increased movement speed, prolonged rotarod drop latency, increased percentage of sucrose preference, and shortened immobility time ( P<0.05). (2) Compared with the miR-15b-5p mimic control group, the miR-15b-5p mimic group had significantly increased miR-15b-5p expression, and decreased BDNF, TrkB and PSD95 protein expressions (100.00±5.75 vs. 66.79±5.90; 100.00±5.95 vs. 84.46±5.77; 100.00±7.02 vs. 80.43±3.25, P<0.05). Compared with the miR-15b-5p inhibitor control group, the miR-15b-5p inhibitor group had significantly decreased miR-15b-5p expression, and increased BDNF, TrkB and PSD95 expressions (100.00±6.81 vs. 119.90±5.66; 100.00±2.88 vs. 110.10±4.15; 100.00±2.19 vs. 124.60±11.69, P<0.05). Compared with the control group, PD group had significantly increased miR-15b-5p expression, and significantly decreased TH, BDNF, TrkB and PSD95 expressions and BDNF fluorescent intensity (100.00±9.20 vs. 63.60±12.80; 100.00±9.88 vs. 71.95±10.00; 100.00±5.16 vs. 70.37±8.43; 100.00±7.01 vs. 68.12±10.22; 100.00±12.99 vs. 48.23±12.58) in the substantia nigra ( P<0.05); compared with the PD group, the intervention group had significantly lower miR-15b-5p expression and increased TH, BDNF, TrkB and PSD95 expressions and BDNF fluorescent intensity (63.60±12.80 vs. 90.69±9.84; 71.95±10.00 vs. 93.31±4.50; 70.37±8.43 vs. 88.11±4.10; 68.12±10.22 vs. 89.59±5.93; 48.23±12.58 vs. 83.65±10.52) in the substantia nigra ( P<0.05). (3) Compared with the BDNF 3'-UTR wild-type+miR-15b-5p mimic control group, the BDNF 3'-UTR wild-type+miR-15b-5p mimic group had significantly decreased luciferase activity (100.00±5.07 vs. 90.59±1.75, P<0.05); compared with the BDNF 3'-UTR wild-type+miR-15b-5p inhibitor control group, the BDNF 3'-UTR wild-type+miR-15b-5p inhibitor group had significantly increased luciferase activity (100.00±5.08 vs. 152.20±31.87, P<0.05). Conclusion:MiR-15b-5p is involved in depression-like behavior in PD by down-regulating the BDNF/TrkB/PSD95 expressions.
