ObjectiveTo systematically evaluate the application of narrative education in undergraduate nursing teaching， to understand the current application status of narrative education， and to provide a theoretical basis for the subsequent establishment of a sound narrative education system. MethodsA systematic search was conducted for studies published in Chinese and English databases on applying narrative education to undergraduate nursing teaching， with the search period ranging from database inception to February 23， 2025. Literature was screened， and relevant information was extracted. A rigorous quality evaluation was conducted on the included studies， and a descriptive analysis was performed on their content. ResultsA total of 20 papers were included， involving 3，180 research subjects， all of whom were undergraduate nursing students. The results of descriptive analysis showed that the teaching model of narrative education primarily encompassed reading narrative works， watching films and videos， performing narrative scenarios， and writing reflective journals. The course setting and content covered pre-teaching preparation and in-teaching implementation. The evaluation of teaching effectiveness included the evaluation of teachers’ teaching methods （student evaluation/self-evaluation） and the evaluation of students’ learning effectiveness （course grade evaluation/humanistic care scale/empathy scale assessment， and others）. ConclusionNarrative education combines abstract concepts with concrete clinical situations， which not only enriches students’ learning experiences but also enhances their humanistic literacy. Meanwhile， it provides teachers with opportunities to develop their narrative teaching skills， which requires them to possess profound professional knowledge and employ narrative techniques to guide students in reflection and critical thinking， thereby improving teaching quality and learning outcomes. Future efforts should consistently deepen the connotation research of narrative education and build a systematic nursing education system.

Psoriasis is an incurable chronic inflammatory disease that requires new interventions. Here, we found that fibroblasts exacerbate psoriasis progression by promoting macrophage recruitment via CCL2 secretion by single-cell multi-omics analysis. The natural small molecule celastrol was screened to interfere with the secretion of CCL2 by fibroblasts and improve the psoriasis-like symptoms in both murine and cynomolgus monkey models. Mechanistically, celastrol directly bound to the low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 1 (LRP1) β-chain and abolished its binding to the transcription factor c-Jun in the nucleus, which in turn inhibited CCL2 production by skin fibroblasts, blocked fibroblast-macrophage crosstalk, and ameliorated psoriasis progression. Notably, fibroblast-specific LRP1 knockout mice exhibited a significant reduction in psoriasis like inflammation. Taken together, from clinical samples and combined with various mouse models, we revealed the pathogenesis of psoriasis from the perspective of fibroblast-macrophage crosstalk, and provided a foundation for LRP1 as a novel potential target for psoriasis treatment.

ObjectiveTo explore the possible mechanism of Tongfeng Decoction （痛风汤） for preventing and treating acute gouty arthritis. MethodsSixty Wistar male rats were divided into normal group， model group， colchicine group and low-， medium- and high-dose Tongfeng Decoction groups according to the random number table， 10 rats in each group. Tongfeng Decoction of 11.34， 22.68 and 45.36 g/kg were given by gavage to low-， medium- and high-dose Tongfeng Decoction groups， colchicine 3.15×10^-4 g/（kg·d） to the colchicine group， and normal saline 10 ml/（kg·d） to the normal group and model group respectively for 7 consecutive days. After 1 hour of gavage on day 5， rats in all groups except the normal group were modelled as acute gouty arthritis in the ankle joint of the right hind limb with the modified Coderre's method； rats in the normal group were injected with 0.2 ml of normal saline at the same location. The swelling degree of the ankle joint was measured before modelling and after 6 h， 12 h， 24 h and 48 h of modelling， respectively. HE staining was used to observe the histopathological and morphological changes in the synovial tissue of the ankle joint； immunoblotting and RT-qPCR were used to detect NOD-like receptor protein 3 （NLRP3）， apoptosis-associated speck-like protein （ASC）， cysteine aspartate protease 1 （Caspase-1）， and interleukin 1β （IL-1β） protein and mRNA expression levels in ankle synovial tissues， respectively； immunohistochemistry was used to detect the positive expression of Caspase-1 and IL-1β in ankle synovial tissues； ELISA was used to detect the tumour necrosis factor alpha （TNF-α）， IL-1β， and interleukin in serum； immunofluorescence staining was used to observe the formation of neutrophil extracellular traps （NETs） in the synovial tissues of the ankle joints. ResultsCompared with the normal group， rats in the model group showed elevated joint swelling at all time points， significantly increased inflammatory cell infiltration and the number of synovial cell layers in the synovial tissues of the ankle joints， elevated NLRP3， Caspase-1， ASC and IL-1β protein and mRNA expression， elevated positive expression of Caspase-1 and IL-1β， increased formation of NETs， and elevation of TNF-α， IL-6， and IL-1β in serum （P＜0.05）. Compared with the model group， there was an improvement in synovial cell proliferation and inflammatory cell infiltration of the ankle joint in the colchicine group， high- and medium-dose Tongfeng Decoction groups. In the colchicine group and the high-， medium- and low-dose Tongfeng Decoction groups， the degree of joint swelling， positive expression of Caspase-1， IL-1β and formation of NETs in the synovial tissue of the ankle joint， and TNF-α， IL-6 and IL-1β in serum reduced 24 h and 48 h after modelling； in colchicine group and high-dose Tongfeng Decoction group， NLRP3， ASC， Caspase-1， IL-1β protein and mRNA expression in the synovial tissues of ankle joints all reduced （P＜0.05）. The colchicine group and high-dose Tongfeng Decoction group were superior to the low-dose Tongfeng Decoction group in reducing ASC， Caspase-1， IL-1β protein and mRNA expression in the ankle synovial tissues， the positive expression of Caspase-1， as well as TNF-α， IL-6， and IL-1β level in serum （P＜0.05）. ConclusionTongfeng Decoction showed effectiveness for the prevention and treatment of acute gouty arthritis， and its mechanism may be related to the inhibition of the assembly and activation of NLRP3 inflammatory vesicles in ankle synovial tissues， the inhibition of the release of inflammatory factors， and the formation of NETs.

The Constant-Murley scores also showed significant improvement: from 68.50±15.31 to 87.5±8.70 in the H-Loop group and from 66.21±16.51 to 86.33±9.14 in the suture bridge group ( F=6.733, P<0.001; F=30.173, P<0.001). SST scores increased from 6.38±3.76 to 9.06±2.59 in the H-Loop group and from 6.55±3.31 to 9.17±2.45 in the suture bridge group ( F=2.847, P<0.001; F=11.096, P<0.001). The shoulder flexion range of motion increased from 158.75°±21.25° to 178.75°±47.07° in the H-Loop group and from 139.29°±45.12° to 179.76°±3.42° in the suture bridge group ( t=3.814, P=0.002; t=5.877, P<0.001). Shoulder abduction motion increased from 145°±45.46° to 178.75°±3.42° in the H-Loop group and from 135.24°±47.07° to 179.76°±1.54° in the suture bridge group ( t=2.952, P=0.001; t=6.185, P<0.001). Muscle strength improved from 53.36±25.21 N to 73.69±24.09 N in the H-Loop group and from 43.31±24.49 N to 61.8±30.07 N in the suture bridge group ( t=4.916, P<0.001; t=5.623, P<0.001). The ASES score at one year post-surgery was significantly higher in the H-Loop group 92.00±4.41 compared to the suture bridge group 87.71±6.19 ( t=2.529, P=0.014). There were no significant differences in UCLA scores, Constant-Murley scores, SST scores, shoulder motion, or muscle strength between the groups ( P>0.05). Conclusion:The H-Loop technique provides a good early curative effect. Compared to the traditional suture bridge technique, the H-Loop technique offers a higher early postoperative ASES score, shorter operative time, and fewer anchors required.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical efficacy of arthroscopic side-to-side suture with remnants preserved in repair of transtendinous rotator cuff tears.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted to analyze the data of 17 patients who had been treated by arthroscopic side-to-side suture with remnants preserved for transtendinous rotator cuff tear caused by trauma at Sports Medicine Center, The Second Hospital Affiliated to Inner Mongolia Medical University from January 2017 to January 2020. There were 11 males and 6 females with an age of (47.9±8.3) years and a duration from injury to surgery of (50.4±21.3) d. Recorded were range of motion and muscle strength of the shoulder, University of California at Los Angeles (UCLA) shoulder function score, Constant-Murley shoulder function score, visual analogue scale (VAS) pain score, re-tears and complications before operation and at the last follow-up.Results:The 17 patients were followed up for (16.5±3.5) months after operation. Retear of the rotator cuff occurred in 2 patients after operation while MRI showed good healing of the rotator cuff in the other patients with no such postoperative complications as infection or wound dehiscence. At preoperation and the last follow-up, respectively, the range of shoulder flexion was 152.9°±8.5° and 172.4°±5.6°, the abductor muscle strength 3.5 (2.6, 4.1) kg and 6.9 (6.3, 8.3) kg, the external rotator muscle strength (3.8±1.0) kg and (5.9±1.6) kg, the internal rotator muscle strength 3.9 (3.4,4.7) kg and 5.2 (4.5,5.9) kg, the UCLA score (13.2±1.9) points and (30.9±2.4) points, the Constant score (40.1±2.8) points and (86.1±4.6) points, and the VAS score (6.7±0.8) points and (0.9±0.6) points, all showing a significant difference between preoperation and the last follow-up ( P<0.05). Conclusion:In repair of transtendinous rotator cuff tears, arthroscopic side-to-side suture with remnants preserved can lead to significantly improved clinical outcomes in range of motion, muscle strength, functional recovery and pain relief.

Objective:To explore the relationship and underlying mechanism between exosomes derived from doxorubicin-resistant osteosarcoma cells and MDR1 and miRNAs. Methods:MG63 and U2OS cell lines were selected to construct doxorubicin-resistant strains, and the 50% inhibitory concentration (half maximal inhibitory concentration, IC 50) of drug-resistant and sensitive strains was detected by MTT, and fluorescence staining was performed at intervals of 15 min between 15 and 120 min to detect the change of fluorescence intensity. RT-PCR and Western Blot were used to detect the expression levels of MDR1 P-gp to verify the drug resistance of osteosarcoma cells. Exosomes were identified by particle size analysis and Western Bolt detection. The endocytosis of PKH26-labeled exosomes from doxorubicin-resistant cells was observed, and the proliferation level and migration of exosomes from doxorubicin-resistant cells co-cultured with osteosarcoma cells were detected by MTT assay and cell scratch assay. The differential expression levels of miRNAs in osteosarcoma-sensitive and drug-resistant cells were verified by sequencing and bioinformatics analysis and RT-PCR assay. Tumor growth, serum exosome identification and mRNA expression level of miR-21-5p in tumor-bearing nude mice between normal osteosarcoma cell group and drug-resistant group, drug-resistant+normal exosome group, drug-resistant+drug-resistant+drug-resistant exosome group were observed. MDR1 expression level in tumor tissue was detected by RT-PCR, Western Blot and immunohistochemistry. Results:The IC 50 of two adriamycin resistant strains were 2.21 vs. 11.81 μg/ml and 0.93 vs. 11.81 μg/ml, respectively, and the fluorescence intensity decreased faster than that of normal strains. The relative mRNA expression levels of MDR1 in two cell lines were normal 1.12±0.16, 1.02±0.11 and drug-resistant 2.15±0.10, 2.127±0.12, respectively. The relative protein expression of P-gp was normal 0.92±0.11, 0.73±0.10 and drug-resistant 0.46±0.03, 0.30±0.04, the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). Drug-resistant exosomes can enter osteosarcoma cells through endocytosis and concentrate in the cytoplasm when co-cultured with normal strains. Osteosarcoma cells were co-cultured with drug-resistant exosomes at 2, 4, 6, and 8 μg/ml adriamycin, respectively. Compared with normal group, the proliferation level in drug-resistant group was significantly increased. Compared with the normal cell group 35.95±3.92, 6.72±3.55 and the normal exosome group 51.22±5.55, 19.31±1.93, the drug-resistant cell group 54.20±9.32, 19.24±2.88 and drug-resistant exosome group 76.40±5.41, 30.26±4.87, all had significantly higher cell mobility, the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). Exosome sequencing and biogenic analysis of 10 highly upregated miRNAs to validate mRNA expression differences between normal and drug-resistant strains by RT-PCR, showing a significant increase in miR-21-5p expression level of drug-resistant strains (5.89±0.26 vs. 0.99±0.06; 1.05±0.07 vs. 8.80±0.93, P<0.05), the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). In MG63 and U2OS, the normal cell group and drug-resistant cell group, and the normal exosome group and drug-resistant exosome group were compared, the tumor volume and the terminal tumor weight of nude mice were increased to varying degrees. MRNA relative expression levels of miR-21-5p in serum exosomes of nude mice after drug intervention were 0.86±0.07 and 0.86±0.05 in normal cell group, respectively. The values were 1.13±0.12, 1.14±0.12 in drug-resistant cell group, 0.71±0.05, 0.75±0.03 in normal exosome group, and 0.90±0.07, 0.93±0.04 in drug-resistant exosome group. Compared with normal and drug-resistant strains, the expression levels of normal and drug-resistant exosome groups were increased, with statistical significance ( P<0.05). Conclusion:The exosomes of drug-resistant cells in osteosarcoma could enhance the proliferation level and migration ability of cells through intercellular transfer of MDR1 and miRNAs. The expression of MDR1 and miR-21-5p in drug-resistant cells and tumor-forming nude mouse serum and tumor tissues were up-regulated which suggested that it might be involved in regulating the drug resistance process of osteosarcoma.

Objective:To investigate the feasibility and safety of the X-ray guided obstructive double J tube replacement in ureter.Methods:The clinical data of 44 patients with double J tube obstruction who underwent double J tube replacement from April 2016 to August 2019 were analyzed retrospectively. Among the 44 cases, there were 3 males and 41 females, aged from 27.0 to 70.0 (54.6±11.2) years. The time since last double J tube placement, the method of transurethral remove of double J tube, the method of double J tube replacement, the location of double J tube obstruction and postoperative complications were collected, and the success rate of operation was calculated. According to the different positions of calcium salt deposition in double J tubes, the obstructive double J tubes were divided into bladder end type, renal pelvis end type, two-end type and whole partial type. The replacement method was differentiated according to different types of double J tube obstruction. The cut-off end method was to cut off the obstructed bladder end of double J tube by scissors, and the internal unobstructed double J tube could be seen. The guide wire could be introduced into the renal pelvis through the double J tube, and the new double J tube could be replaced. This method was only used for bladder end type double J tube obstruction. The thine guide wire method was to replace the common guide wire which could not pass through the renal pelvis end obstruction with the microguide wire, so that it could pass through the end of the double J tube of the renal pelvis end obstruction or through the side hole, enter into the renal pelvis, withdraw the original double J tube, and then replace the new double J tube. This method was suitable for renal pelvis end type double J tube obstruction, or combined with cut-off end method for two-end type double J tube obstruction. In the auxiliary sheath method, the obstructed double J tube was used as the support, the vascular sheath tube was sent into the ureter, and the guide wire was sent to the renal pelvis through the sheath tube to replace the new double J tube. This method was suitable for all types of double J tube obstruction.Results:A total of 47 X-ray-guided double J tube replacements were performed in 44 patients. In the removal of double J tube, 37 cases of direct method and 10 cases of indirect method were used, and the overall success rate of double J tube removal was 100% (47/47). The time from the last double J tube placement was (4.2±1.3) months. There were 23 cases of bladder end type obstruction, 8 cases of renal pelvis end obstruction, 5 cases of two-end type obstruction, and 11 cases of whole partial type obstruction.The success rate of replacing double J tubes by cut-off end method, thin guide wire method and auxiliary sheath method was 76.0% (19/25), 50.0% (2/4) and 77.8% (14/18), respectively. After the failure of the cut-off end method or the thin guide wire method, 4 cases were further replaced by the thin guide wire method or auxiliary sheath method, and 3 cases were successful. Therefore, the overall success rate of double J tube replacement was 80.9% (38/47). The double J tubes were inserted by percutanous pyelostomy in 9 patients who failed to replace double J tube successfully. Among the 44 cases, there were 4 cases of urethral orifice pain and discomfort, and 2 cases of gross hematuria, all of which relieved spontaneously.Conclusion:It is feasible and safe to replace the obstructive double J tube in ureter under X-ray guidance.
