Recommendations， consensus-based syntheses of the best available evidence， constitute the core content of a guideline. This paper analyzes the characteristics of emergency health systems guidance documents （HSGs）， represented by the coronavirus disease-2019 （COVID-19） emergency HSG， regarding the item "recommendations" and its eight evaluation criteria in the Appraisal of Guidelines for Research and Evaluation for Health Systems （AGREE-HS）. The World Health Organization （WHO） standard HSGs were used as reference to explore the characteristics of emergency HSGs that are different from non-emergency HSGs. The results showed that the “recommendations” scored second after “topic” among the five items. Criterion 7 relating to operability scored higher than others among the eight criteria， and criterion 3 dealing with ethical principles scored lower than other criteria. Compared with the standard HSGs， the emergency HSGs showed decreased scores （P<0.05） of the item recommendations and the criteria of this item except criterion 4 concerning equity promotion. Among the HSGs with different developers， those developed by the WHO had higher （P<0.05） scores of recommendations than nationally developed HSGs， as evidenced by criterion 4， criterion 5 involving acceptability to and alignment with sociocultural and political interests， and criterion 8 for updating plans. The HSGs regarding global or country strategy scored higher （P<0.05） on criterion 2 relating to comprehensiveness than those involving specific guidance on clinical or material issues. Overall， the emergency HSGs， represented by the COVID-19 emergency HSGs， differ from the standard HSGs in a number of ways in terms of their recommendations. Emergency HSGs have more condensed content and weaker articulation of expected outcomes. They incline to put more emphasis on updating plans， rather than comprehensiveness or integrative requirements in terms of ethics， equity， and sociocultural and political interests.

Objective To retrospectively analyze of factors influencing early preterm birth(EPB)and late preterm birth(LPB)in pregnancy women with placenta previa complicated by placenta accreta spectrum disorders(PAS),and assess maternal and infant outcomes.Methods We included 590 cases of pregnancy women with placenta previa complicated by PAS who underwent cesarean sections at five hospitals in Wuhan and Xianning cities between January 2018 and June 2021.These patients were divided into three groups based on delivery gesta-tional age:EPB,LPB,and term birth(TB).A multiple logistic regression model was employed to analyze the risk factors associated with EPB and LPB.Additionally,differences in early maternal and infant outcomes among these groups were examined.Results Among 590 pregnancy women with placenta previa complicated by PAS,the proportions of EPB and LPB were 9.7%and 54.4%.The use of uterine contraction inhibitors prior to cesarean section,vaginal bleeding,and previous cesarean sections history were identified as risk factors for both EPB and LPB.The proportion of severe postpartum hemorrhage was comparable between the EPB group and the LPB group;however,the incidence of neonatal asphyxia,low birth weight infants,and the rate of newborns transferred to the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit(NICU)within 24 hours after cesarean delivery were significantly higher in the EPB group compared to the LPB group.Conclusions Placenta previa complicated by PAS predominantly leads to LPB.The history of prior cesarean sections,uterine contractions,and vaginal bleeding prior to cesarean section,are sig-nificantly associated with both EPB and LPB.During the perinatal period,efforts should be made to extend gesta-tional weeks under close monitoring to minimize the incidence of premature births and thereby improve early mater-nal and infant outcomes.

ObjectiveTo explore the role of efficacy evaluation methods in providing evidence for traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） clinical practice guidelines based on a demonstration study of clinical efficacy evaluation of TCM for allergic rhinitis （AR），aiming to enrich the sources of evidence for guideline development. MethodReal-world data of TCM medication for AR were collected and efficacy evaluation was carried out. SPSS 16.0 software was used to calculate the conformity of clinical syndromes，main prescriptions， and medications to the guidelines. Correlation analysis of efficacy and medications was performed according to guideline conformity to compare the differences in medications between real-world clinical applications and current guidelines. ResultA total of 198 cases were collected and the clinical medications were compared with the relevant guidelines for AR. It was found that the clinical syndrome conformity was above 70%，and in addition to the guideline syndrome，there were also syndromes in six meridians and other mixed syndromes in clinical practice. The guideline conformity of the main prescriptions used in clinical practice showed a positive correlation trend with efficacy. There were some differences between the commonly used drugs in clinical practice and those recommended by the guidelines. For example，for lung Qi deficiency and cold syndrome，drugs such as Angelicae Dahuricae Radix， Magnoliae Flos， and Schisandrae Chinensis Fructus were often used. For kidney Yang deficiency syndrome，drugs such as Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma and Ostreae Concha were often used. For spleen Qi deficiency and weakness syndrome，drugs such as Poria， Cinnamomi Ramulus， and Magnoliae Flos were used. For lung Qi deficiency and cold syndrome in children，drugs such as Chebulae Fructus， Cicadae Periostracum， Zingiberis Rhizoma， and Ginseng Radix et Rhizoma were used. For lung and spleen Qi deficiency syndrome，drugs such as Dioscoreae Rhizoma， Menthae Haplocalycis Herba， Amomi Fructus， and Zingiberis Rhizoma were used. There were also some differences in the commonly used drugs for adults and children. For example，for lung Qi deficiency and cold syndrome，adults often used Angelicae Dahuricae Radix， Magnoliae Flos， and Tribuli Fructus，while children often used Ginseng Radix et Rhizoma， Paeoniae Radix Alba， and Poria. For lung meridian hidden heat syndrome， adults often used Bupleuri Radix， Asari Radix et Rhizoma， Pinelliae Rhizoma， and Xanthii Fructus， while children often used Houttuyniae Herba， Menthae Haplocalycis Herba， Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium， and Massa Medicata Fermentata. ConclusionEffective medication regimens can be screened out based on efficacy evaluation methods，which can help supplement immediate， objective， and clinically relevant evidence of medication for the development of clinical practice guidelines in TCM from the perspective of clinical effectiveness.

Objective:To explore the mechanism of Xijiao Dihuang Ddecoction (XJDHT) against sepsis-induced liver injury based on transcriptomics.Methods:Sixty C57BL/6 mice were randomly (random number) divided into the sepsis group, sepsis treatment with XJDHT and control group, with 20 mice in each group. The sepsis mouse model was established by intraperitoneal (i.p.) injection of lipopolysaccharide (LPS). The control group was intraperitoneally injected with the same amount of normal saline. The sepsis treatment with XJDHT group was injected with XJDHT (crude drug 187.5 mg) twice a day 2 days before modeling. After modeling, gastric feeding was continued twice a day, while the control group and sepsis group were gavaged with the same amount of normal saline. At 72 h after LPS intervention, 9 mice in each group were randomly selected. After anesthesia, part of the liver were taken for small RNA and RNA sequencing and analysis, and part of the liver were taken for pathological examination.Results:XJDHT could improve the histopathological changes of liver in septic mice, and alleviate some abnormally expressed microRNAs (mmu-mir-292a-5p, mmu-mir-871-3p, mmu-mir-653-5p, mmu-mir-293-5p, mmu-mir-155-3p, mmu-mir-346-5p, mmu-mir-187-5p, mmu-mir-3090-3p) and their target genes.Conclusions:XJDHT can reduce the liver histopathological changes in septic mice, and its mechanism may be related to XJDHT regulating the expression of important key genes of liver of sepsis like mmu-mir-187-5p and its target genes such as ADAM8, irak3 and PFKFB3

Objective To evaluate the clinical characteristics and pregnant outcomes of gravidae with COVID-19. Methods This study involved nine gravidae with COVID-19 admitted to the Renmin Hospital of Wuhan University from January 22 to February 1, 2020. Their clinical data, including epidemiological history, clinical symptoms, laboratory examinations, chest CT, treatment, delivery mode, and pregnancy outcomes, were analyzed retrospectively. Specimens of maternal vaginal swab were collected in six pregnant women, and the specimens of amniotic fluid, cord blood, neonatal throat swab and breast milk samples were collected in four pregnant women who had a delivery during our study. All samples were tested for the existence of COVID-19. Descriptive analysis was applied in this study. Results (1) Among the nine cases, five were admitted in the third trimester and four in the second trimester. The median incubation period of COVID-19 was 8 (1-14) d. Fever was presented in all cases on admission, and the other commonly seen symptoms were cough (seven cases) and diarrhea (five cases). Other signs and symptoms were also reported, including shortness of breath, myalgia and fatigue (four cases in each), nasal obstruction, pharyngalgia, chest pain, and headache/dizziness (three cases in each), rash (two cases), and chills and expectoration (one case in each). The most common laboratory abnormalities were a decreased number of lymphocytes (seven cases) and elevated C-reactive protein (six cases). Chest CT scans were performed in seven women, and all showed patchy areas or ground-glass opacity in both lungs. Oligohydramnios was detected in only one case at 37 +5 weeks, which was 7 d after the diagnosis of COVID-19. (2) All nine cases received empiric antibiotic and antiviral therapy with Chinese medicine as adjuvant treatment. Eight patients required oxygen inhalation, and eight were treated with glucocorticoid. Six cases received immunotherapy. (3) Four of the nine cases had delivered, including three cesarean sections and one spontaneous vaginal preterm birth after premature rupture of membranes, and the mother was transferred to the intensive care unit 2 d after delivery due to acute respiratory distress syndrome. One case was terminated at 26 gestational weeks. Of the four neonates, there were two term and two premature babies, and one preterm baby was small-for-gestational-age. No neonatal asphyxia was observed. Serial real-time quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction showed negative results in the detection of 2019-novel coronavirus in all samples obtained from amniotic fluid, umbilical cord blood, neonatal nasopharynx, breast milk, and vagina. Maternal conditions were all stable in all cases, including the four continuing pregnancy, and the terminated ones, except the case mentioned above. Conclusions There is no distinguishable clinical feature between pregnant and non-pregnant COVID-19 patients. So far, there is no evidence for vertical transmission or worsening perinatal outcome in mothers and babies.

Objective To explore the clinical characteristics and risk factors of catheterrelated infection in continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) patients.Methods The demographic and clinical data of CRRT patients who inserted with double-lumen non-cuffed dialysis catheter at the First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University from January 1,2016 to December 31,2016 were collected.According to the presence or absence of catheter-related infections,they were divided into infected group and uninfected group.Statistics and analysis of the incidence and pathogenic characteristics of catheter-related infections;Comparison of clinical features of infected and uninfected groups;A multivariate Cox proportional hazard model was used to analyze risk factors for catheter-related infections.Results A total of 364 patients with CRRT (437 cases of central venous catheterization) were enrolled in the study.Catheter-related bloodstream infection (CRBSI) and catheterrelated colonization (CRCOL) rates were 3.565 and 2.228 events per 1000 catheter-days.These catheters were associated with higher proportion of inserted in ICU (P=0.007),immunosuppression (P=0.002),receive catecholamine inotropes therapy (P=0.001) and shock (P=0.030).The infection catheters also had shorter indwelling time (P=0.032) and lower level of blood hemoglobin (P=0.017),serum creatinine (P=0.004),blood brain natriuretic peptide (P=0.005) pericatheter use.The most common pathogens were Gram-negative bacteria,especially Acinetobacter baumannii,which caused 37.5％ CRBSI and 20.0％ CRCOL.Multivariate Cox regression model showed female (P=0.029,HR=2.151),diabetes (P=0.016,HR=2.807),receive catecholamine inotropes therapy (P=0.012,HR=2.655),immunosuppression (P=0.037,HR=2.203) were independent risk factors associated with catheterrelated infection.Conclusions The incidence of CRBSI and CRCOL is 3.565 and 2.228 events per 1000 catheter-days CRRT patients in our hospital.The most common pathogen of catherter-related infection is Gram-negative bacteria.Female,diabetes,received catecholamine inotropic drugs,and immunosuppression were independent risk factors associated with catheter-related infection.

Objective: To explore the relationship between gap junction and glucose uptake of astrocytes under oxygen-glucose deprivation(OGD) and reperfusion. Methods: Cerebral cortical astrocyte from 1 day newborn SD rats were undergone the primary culture. The ischemia cell model was established by OGD. This experiment were divided into control group, OGD group and OGD+ CBX group.After different reperfusion time (0 h, 12 h 24 h and 48 h), the glucose uptake of astrocyte was measured by 2-NBDG through flow cytometry analysis and connexin 43(Cx43) gap junction plaques was detected using immunofluorescene. Results: Compared with the control group, the glucose uptake of astrocyte was up-regulated induced by OGD following different reperfusion time.The glucose uptake of OGD group was (2.32±0.43)nmol/μgDNA in 24 hours reperfusion time and was (0.95±0.28)nmol/μgDNA in control group. The up-regulation was up to 2.63-fold increase (t=13.99, P=0.0024) in 24 hours after reperfusion.Compared with the control group, the Cx43 gap junction number was up to 2.5- fold increase(t=11.34, P=0.003) and the size was 1.85-fold increase (t=10.27, P=0.004) in 24 h reperfusion. The glucose uptake of astrocyte after OGD was reduced by CBX and the decrease was 42% in 48 h after reperfusion. Conclusion Those results urges us consider the clinical treatment for interfering with Cx43 gap junction.

Objective To investigate the value of MR apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) and relative apparent diffusion coefficient (rADC) in differential diagnosis of lymphoma and metastasis in cervical lymph nodes.Methods Totally 69 patients with lymphoma (lymphoma group) and 66 patients with cervical lymph nodes metastasis (metastasis group) underwent MR examination.ADC values of lymph nodes and the right masseter muscle were measured,and rADC values were calculated.The consistency between two observers was evaluated.The differences of ADC value and rADC value were compared between the two groups.The efficacy of ADC value and rADC value in differential diagnosis of lymphoma and metastasis in cervical lymph nodes was analyzed with ROC curve.Results The consistency between two observers was excellent (all ICC＞0.9).Both ADC and rADC values of lymphoma group were significantly lower than those of metastasis group (all P＜0.05).Taken ADC and rADC values as 0.702 × 10-3 mm2/s and 0.584,the sensitivity and specificity was 98.48 ％ and 89.39 ％,76.81 ％ and 84.06 ％,respectively.Conclusion ADC and rADC values are useful in discriminating lymphoma from metastatic lymph nodes.

Objective To investigate the perioperative complications of stenting with symptomatic intracra-nial artery stenosis and study the mechanism and prevention of complications.
