ObjectiveTo establish a tumor prognostic risk assessment model related to target genes of the miR-34 family. MethodsTarget genes of the miR-34 family were screened， and the scores of miR-34 target genes were assessed in 16 tumor types. Univariate Cox regression analysis was used to identify the tumor type with the strongest correlation between miR-34 target gene scores and overall survival （OS）. Gene Ontology （GO） and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes （KEGG） analyses were performed to elucidate the functional roles and signaling pathways of miR-34 target genes. A prognostic risk model based on the miR-34 target genes was constructed using univariate Cox and LASSO regression analyses. Quantitative real-time PCR （qPCR） and dual-luciferase reporter assays were conducted to validate whether the target genes bind to miR-34 and measure their RNA expression levels in the relevant tumors. Additionally， the risk score was integrated with other clinical indicators to develop a nomogram prediction model for patient survival. ResultsA total of 65 target genes of the miR-34 family were screened. The cancer type exhibiting stronger correlation between the target gene scores and OS was lung adenocarcinoma （P = 0.003， HR= 5.150）. Furthermore， miR-34 target genes were predominantly enriched in oxidative stress pathways and various tumor-related processes. Three genes， LDHA， GALNT7， and SATB2， were identified as core components of the prognostic analysis model for lung adenocarcinoma. Additionally， the constructed nomogram model demonstrated robust predictive performance. ConclusionThe risk model and prognosis model of lung adenocarcinoma constructed based on the key target genes of miR-34 have good predictive performance.

This article introduces the specific methods and basis for the formation of recommendations in this part of the guide.

With the aging of the global population， osteoporosis （OP） is becoming a major public health concern worldwide. Currently， the commonly used anti-osteoporosis drugs in clinical practice have limited application due to many side effects. Therefore， developing more effective and safer strategies for the prevention and treatment of OP has become a research focus in this field. In recent years， the clinical efficacy and advantages of traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） in treating OP have been gradually recognized. With the deepening pharmacological research on TCM for OP prevention and treatment， it is found that the active ingredients of Scutellaria baicalensis can promote bone formation or inhibit bone resorption by regulating signaling pathways， including Wnt/β-catenin， osteoprotegerin （OB）/receptor activator of nuclear factor-κB ligand （RANKL）/RANK （OPG/RANKL/RANK）， and bone morphogenetic protein 2 （BMP-2）/Smad， mitogen-activated protein kinase （MAPK）， and mammalian target of rapamycin （mTOR）. However， existing research on active ingredients of S. baicalensis for OP treatment is scattered， making it difficult for scholars to gain a systematic understanding of its research and application. This review summarized the literature on the active ingredients of S. baicalensis in OP treatment worldwide， clarified their mechanisms of action， and explored some issues， providing references for the integration of TCM in OP prevention and treatment.

To guide transfusion practice in critically ill children who often need plasma and platelet transfusions, the Transfusion and Anemia Expertise Initiative-Control/Avoidance of Bleeding (TAXI-CAB) developed Recommendations and Expert Consensus for Plasma and Platelet Transfusion Practice in Critically Ill Children. This guideline addresses 53 recommendations related to plasma and platelet transfusion in critically ill children with 8 kinds of diseases, laboratory testing, selection/treatment of plasma and platelet components, and research priorities. This paper introduces the specific methods and results of the recommendation formation of the guideline.

Based on systematic review and consensus meetings of international multidisciplinary experts, the Transfusion and Anemia Expert Initiative—Control/Avoidance of Bleeding (TAXI-CAB) project team developed management strategies for platelet and plasma transfusion in critically ill children. This consensus presents five expert consensus statements and two recommendations addressing two key questions: 1) What Laboratory Tests and Physiologic Triggers Should Guide the Decision to Administer a Platelet or Plasma Transfusion in Critically ill Children? 2) What Product Attributes Are Optimal to Guide Specific Product Selection? This consensus provides guidance for decision-making regarding plasma and platelet transfusion in critically ill children in two aspects: relevant laboratory testing indicators and additional special properties of blood components. This article explains the rationale behind the recommendations in this part of the guideline, aiming to emphasize the need for clinicians to develop transfusion strategies based on multidimensional assessment, while calling for enhanced interdisciplinary collaboration and evidence-based research to optimize blood management in critically ill children, reducing the risk of over-transfusion and improving treatment outcomes. Furthermore, there remains an urgent need for further research to explore laboratory indicators associated with bleeding risk to guide transfusion therapy.

Objective : To investigate the role of enhancer of zeste homolog 2(EZH2)-trimethylated lysine 27 of histone H3(H3K27me3) axis in the dedifferentiation of thyroid cancer and its clinical value as a potential target for the treatment of anaplastic thyroid cancer(ATC). Methods : Immunohistochemical SP method was used to detect the expression of EZH2, H3K27me3, paired box gene 8(PAX8), thyroglobulin(TG) and thyroid transcription factor 1(TTF1) in ATC and papillary thyroid carcinoma(PTC) and their adjacent tissues. The relationship between EZH2 and thyroid differentiation markers(PAX8, TTF1, TG) was further analyzed by gene expression omnibus(GEO) database. ATC cell lines 8305C and BHT-101 were culturedin vitro. Real-time reverse transcription PCR(RT-qPCR) was used to detect the expression of thyroid differentiation markers(TTF1, PAX8) mRNA in ATC cell lines treated with EZH2 inhibitor(GSK126), and evaluate the potential therapeutic effect of GSK126in vitro. The effects of GSK126 and BRAF inhibitor vemurafenib on the proliferation of ATC cell lines were observed by cell proliferation assay. Results : The expression of EZH2 in ATC tissues was significantly higher than that in papillary thyroid carcinoma and adjacent tissues(P<0.05). The expression of H3K37me3 in ATC tissues was significantly lower than that in PTC tissues(P<0.05). EZH2 was negatively correlated with PAX8 and TG expression levels, but not with TTF1 expression level.In vitroexperiments, GSK126 could reverse the expression of thyroid differentiation markers PAX8 and TTF1 in ATC cell lines. GSK126 combined with BRAF inhibitor vemurafenib could significantly inhibit the growth of ATC cell lines. Conclusion The EZH2-H3K27me3 axis plays an important role in regulating thyroid specific markers, and the inhibition of EZH2 by small molecular compounds is a promising target for ATC treatment in the future.

Objective To establish an ultra-high performance liquid chromatography with quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry(UPLC-QTOF-MS)method for identifying the active ingredients of Zhizi Houpu decoction,and to predict its material basis and mechanism of anti-insomnia effects using network pharmacology.Methods The chemical components of Zhizi Houpu decoction were identified according to UHPLC-QTOF-MS ion fragmentation rule combined with compound library and literature review.Components with oral bioavailability(OB)≥30％and drug-like properties(DL)≥0.18 were selected to construct the Zhizi Houpu decoction-active ingredients-target network.The STRING database and the Database for Annotation,Visualization,and Integrated Discovery(DAVID)were used to screen key target proteins.Subsequently,enrichment analysis was performed for biological processes,molecular functions,cellular components,and signaling pathways.Results A total of 107 chemical components were identified,including 35 compounds related to insomnia and 11 anti-insomnia targets such as AKT serine/threonine kinase 1,tumor protein 53,and prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase 2.Gene Ontology functional enrichment analysis indicated that Zhizi Houpo decoction may exert its effects through cellular components such as the presynaptic membrane,dendrite,and plasma membrane,by participating in biological processes like chemical synaptic transmission,G protein signaling pathway,and neuron apoptosis,and by regulating molecular functions such as G protein-coupled serotonin receptor activity.Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathway enrichment analysis revealed that its anti-insomnia effects were mainly concentrated in pathways such as neuroactive ligand-receptor interaction,calcium signaling pathway,serotonergic synapse,and cyclic adenosine monophosphate signaling pathway.Conclusion The anti-insomnia effect of Zhizi Houpo decoction is the result of a synergistic action involving multiple components,multiple targets,and multiple pathways.Its material basis and mechanism of action are primarily related to regulating biological processes such as neurotransmitter metabolism,synaptic function,neuronal apoptosis,and inflammatory response.

ObjectiveTo explore the effectiveness of feedforward control mode on improving occupational burnout among operating room nurses through theoretical research and clinical practice， with a view to promoting their physical and mental health and enhancing the quality of surgical nursing. MethodsA total of 440 operating room nurses from different regions， scales， and nursing experiences in Shaanxi Province from November 2023 to December 2023 were randomly divided into an experimental group and a control group， with 220 nurses in each group. While the control group received routine intervention measures， the experimental group introduced a feedforward control mode based on the control group， with “emotional exhaustion，” “depersonalization，”and“personal achievement” as observation indicators. ResultsThe incidence of occupational burnout in the experimental group was 11.4%， while that in the control group was 20.0%. The experimental group showed a significantly lower incidence than the control group （P=0.013）. ConclusionThe feedforward control mode can significantly alleviate nurses’ sense of job burnout， promote the improvement of surgical nursing quality， as well as continuously improve the scientific rigor， advancement， and humanistic nature of nursing services， which is conducive to building a harmonious and efficient nursing team. The spirit of teamwork， reflected in mutual support， mutual trust， and joint efforts for surgical success and patient health， has become an important component of nurses’ professional ethics.

AIM: To investigate the efficacy of pars plana vitrectomy(PPV)with or without inner limiting membrane(ILM)peeling in refractory diabetic macular edema.METHODS:Totally 80 patients with refractory diabetic macular edema were retrospectively selected and assigned into groups according to the treatment method. Among them, 38 patients treated with PPV were included as group A, and 42 patients treated with PPV combined with ILM peeling were included as group B. The relevant data of patients in the two groups were collected, and the efficacy of the two groups was compared.RESULTS: At 1, 3, and 6 mo after surgery, the best corrected visual acuity(BCVA), central macular thickness(CMT), and severity of macular edema in the group B were all superior to those in the group A(all P<0.05). At 6 mo after the surgery, the incidence of complications in the group B was 12%, with no prominent difference compared to 18% of the group A(P>0.05).CONCLUSION:PPV combined with or without ILM peeling can improve visual function and relieve macular edema in patients with refractory diabetic macular edema. However, the combination of PPV and ILM peeling is superior to PPV alone in improving vision and relieving macular edema, and does not increase postoperative complications.
