Objective:To explore the advantages of internet-based smart healthcare for full-cycle transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER) management in reducing postoperative adverse events rate, improving cardiac function, and enhancing quality of life.Methods:This retrospective study enrolled patients with mitral regurgitation who underwent transcatheter TEER at Beijing Anzhen Hospital Valve Intervention Center between June 2021 and September 2023. Patients were classified into degeneration mitral regurgitation (DMR) and functional mitral regurgitation (FMR) according to etiology, with further stratification by enrollment period into usual care group (June 2021 to October 2022) and full-cycle management group (November 2022 to September 2023). The 1-year postoperative follow-up data were collected and compared between subgroups with the same etiology. Kaplan-Meier survival curves were plotted, and log-rank tests were used to compare the differences in major endpoint event-free survival rates between the two groups. Univariate and multivariate Cox regression and logistic regression analyses were performed to evaluate the impact of the full-cycle management system on patients′ outcomes.Results:A total of 130 patients were included, aged (72.0±8.6) years, including 82 (63%) males. DMR was identified in 84 cases (40 in the usual care group and 44 in the full-cycle management group), while FMR was observed in 46 cases (27 in the usual care group and 19 in the full-cycle management group). Kaplan-Meier analysis demonstrated higher 1-year major endpoint event-free survival rates in the full-cycle management group compared to the usual care group, though the difference was not statistically significant (log-rank P>0.05). Compared to the usual care group, the full-cycle management group showed significantly higher proportions of New York Heart Association classification Ⅰ-Ⅱ patients (DMR: 67% vs. 52%, P=0.031; FMR: 68% vs. 52%, P=0.021), greater 6-minute walking distances (DMR: (346.39±70.41) m vs. (294.11±60.47) m, P=0.012; FMR: (356.60±54.68) m vs. (318.55±39.02) m, P=0.004), and superior Kansas City Cardiomyopathy Questionnaire scores (DMR: 81.50 (74.50, 85.00) points vs. 71.00 (66.00, 82.25) points, P=0.014; FMR: 83.00 (76.00, 85.00) points vs. 74.00 (70.75, 80.00) points, P=0.030). Multivariate logistic regression confirmed the full-cycle management system as an independent predictor for the above improved outcomes (all P<0.05). Conclusion:Smart healthcare-based full-cycle management improves cardiac function and quality of life in mitral regurgitation patients after TEER, demonstrating lower rates of major endpoint events compared to usual care.

Chronic Guillain-Barre syndrome, also known as chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy(CIDP), is an immune-mediated demyelinating peripheral neuropathy. This article analyzes the clinical data of a CIDP patient presenting primarily with limb numbness, pain, and weakness. Along with literature review, this study explores the differential diagnosis between CIDP and diabetic peripheral neuropathy in terms of the pathogenesis, clinical manifestations, laboratory tests, and treatment.

Aortic stenosis (AS) is the most common primary valve lesion requiring surgery or transcatheter intervention in modern era. Its prevalence is rising rapidly as a consequence of the aging population. Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) as a therapy option for older high-risk symptomatic severe AS patients has emerged and is currently extending its indications towards surgery intermediate- and low-risk subjects. Considering the common characteristics of frailty and high comorbidity among AS patients, cardiac rehabilitation (CR) has been proven to improve not only survival but also quality of life in previous reports. CR as a classⅠ recommendation in guidelines for the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular disease has been widely used in clinical practice. The purpose of this article is to sort out the current CR programs for TAVR patients in global medical management, and explore the CR optimization program fit for China medical model in post COVID-19 pandemic era.

ObjectiveTo investigate the independent risk factors of 30-day mortality of nontraumatic acute chest pain in emergency department so as to get non - traumatic acute chest pain risk score,MethodsThe clinical data of 532 patients with non - traumatic acute chest pain were reviewed.The independent risk factors of 30 - day mortality were identified after analysis of medical history,symptom and sign,laboratory findings by uuivariate analysis and logistic regression.Non- traumatic acute chest pain risk score was made as per the odds ratios of these risk factors. ResultsThe average age of the patients was (55.7 + 12.7 ) years,and 45 patients ( 8.4％ ) died after 30 days.In patients with non - traumatic acute chest pain,history of hypertension (OR:4.28; 95％ CI:1.59-11.55 ),prolonged chest pain (OR:1.1; 95％ CI:1.05-1.15),dyspnea (OR:6.61; 95％CI:2.40-18.10) and tachycardia (OR:1.02; 95％CI:1.00-1.04),high leucocyte count (OR:1.18; 95％CI:1.06-1.31) and D - Dimer ( OR:1.002; 95％ CI:1.001-1.002 ) predicted 30 - day mortality independently,whereas chest pain relieved by medicine (OR:0. 15; 95％ CI:0.04-0.65),high blood oxygen saturation (SaO2) (OR:0.89; 95％CI:0.83-0.98) and normal hematocrit (OR:0.92; 95％CI:0.86-0.99) were good markers to predict optimistic prognosis.Non - traumatic acute chest pain risk score was higher in 30 - day dead group than those in survival group significantly ( P ＜ 0.01 ),and mortality was significantly different between groups with various risk stratification (P ＜ 0. 01 ).Conclusions Clinical physician can predict 30 - day mortality and evaluate prognosis in patients with acute chest pain by using non - traumatic acute chest pain risk score quickly and effectively.

The aims of this research were to construct prokaryotic expression vector containing the gene of porcine urate oxidase (pUOX), optimize the conditions of the expression of pUOX in recombinant Escherichia coli BL21(DE3), and analyze the in vitro activity and the enzymological properties of pUOX. The pUOX gene was amplified by RT-PCR from the extracted total RNA of porcine liver, and was inserted into the prokaryotic expression vector pET30a(+) to construct a recombinant expression vector pET30a(+)/pUOX. We identified the recombinant vector by endonuclease digestion and sequence analysis. The pUOX gene was amplified and cloned into the vector pET30a(+) successfully. And then the recombinant vector was transformed into E. coli BL21(DE3). The expression of pUOX with a molecular of approximately 41 kD was induced by IPTG. We also optimized the expression conditions of the recombinant protein. The recombinant protein was mostly located in the cytoplasm and it was insoluble. After the inclusion body was solved in 8 mol/L urea and refolding in 2 mol/L urea, the recombinant protein was collected and purified by Ni2+-NTA column. This recombinant protein had a specific activity of 50.61 IU/mg and showed similar properties of optimum temperature and thermal stability, base on the enzymatic assay and analysis of enzymological properties. These results would help to analyze the in vivo activity by testing animal.
