Objective:To develop a transitional care practice protocol for neurosurgical intensive care unit (ICU) patients based on the Secure-Encourage-Collaborate (SEC) model and to explore its effectiveness, providing a reference for clinical practice.Methods:Through literature analysis, expert verification in our hospital, core group discussions, and the Delphi expert consultation method, a transitional care practice protocol for neurosurgical ICU patients based on the SEC model was developed. A convenience sampling method was used to select 160 patients admitted to the Neurosurgical ICU of Union Hospital, Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology, from March 2022 to October 2023. Eighty patients admitted from March to December 2022 were designated as the control group, and eighty patients admitted from January to October 2023 were designated as the experimental group. The control group received the routine post-discharge follow-up care protocol, while the experimental group received the transitional care practice protocol based on the SEC model. The ICU quality control indicators, rehabilitation outcomes, adverse events were compared between the two groups.Results:The experimental group had significantly shorter ICU stay and total hospitalization days compared to the control group, and fewer cases of readmission within 48 hours after ICU discharge ( P<0.05). The experimental group showed lower pain scores, higher scores for self-care in daily activities, shorter time to first ambulation after ICU discharge, and longer daily ambulation time within the first week post-discharge compared to the control group, with statistically significant differences ( P<0.05). No statistically significant differences were observed between the two groups in the incidence of stage II or higher pressure injuries, falls/bed falls, unplanned extubations, aspiration, and lower limb deep vein thrombosis ( P>0.05) . Conclusions:The transitional care practice protocol for neurosurgical ICU patients based on the SEC model can effectively improve the quality of care.

OBJECTIVE: To analyze the pathogenic variants of the KIF1A gene and its corresponding protein structure in an autism spectrum disorder (ASD) family trio carrying harmful missense variants in the KIF1A gene. METHODS: The peripheral blood DNA of the patient and his parents was extracted and sequenced using whole exome sequencing (WES) technology and verified by Sanger sequencing. Bioinformatics software SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Mutation Taster, and CADD software were used to analyze the harmfulness and conservation of variants. The Human Brain Transcriptome (HBT) database was used to analyze the expression of the KIF1A gene in the brain. PredictProtein and SWISS-MODEL were further used to predict the secondary structure and tertiary structure of KIF1A wild-type protein and variant protein. PyMOL V2.4 was utilized to investigate the change of hydrogen bond connection after protein variant. RESULTS: The WES sequencing revealed a missense variant c.664A>C (p.Asn222His) in the child's KIF1A gene, and this variant was a de novo variant. The harmfulness prediction results suggest that this variant is harmful. By analyzing expression level of KIF1A gene in the brain. It is found that KIF1A gene widely expressed in various brain regions during embryonic development. By analyzing the variant protein structure, the missense variant of KIF1A will cause many changes in the secondary structure of protein, such as alpha-helix, beta-strand, and protein binding domain. The connection of hydrogen bond and spatial structure will also change, thereby changing the original biological function. CONCLUSION The KIF1A gene may be a risk gene for ASD.

Objective·To prepare chitosan-gelatin porous microspheres by high voltage electrostatic method combined with freeze-drying and ionic cross-linking method and investigate the factors that influence the formation of porous medium.Methods·Porous chitosan microspheres and chitosangelatin porous microspheres were prepared using high voltage electrostatic method combined with freeze-drying and ionic cross-linking method,with sodium tripolyphosphate (STPP) as crosslinking agent.Factors that affect the porous structure and pore size of porous microspheres were compared,such as different chitosan-gelatin ratio,freezing temperature,curing time with saturated STPP in 85％ ethanol solution.The morphology,surface and internal structure,particle size of the porous chitosan microspheres and chitosan-gelatin porous microspheres were observe by using light microscope,scanning electron microscope and hematoxylin-eosin staining.Results·Microspheres prepared by freeze-drying with an electrostatic and ionic cross-linking method have open,interconnected and highly macroporous,with good spherical surface.Saturated STPP ethanol solution (85％ ethanol) was chosen as the crosslinking agent to prevent destruction of the porous structure.The order of freeze and crosslinking,cross-linking time and the second freezing temperature,can influence the pore size of porous microspheres.Gelatin and chitosan can form polyelectrolyte complexes,and can also be used as porogen in porous structure.Conclusion·The preparation of porous chitosan-gelatin microspheres via this method has a large pore size (diameter 100-200 μm),suitable for cell growth and the migration.

Objective To evaluate the etiology, pathogenesis, clinical manifestation, imaging features, treatments and factors related to prognosis of acute spinal spontaneous hematoma.Methods The clinical data of 38 patients with acute spinal hematoma treated in our hospital from 2011 till now were analyzed retrospectively.Duration of follow-up was 6 months.The factors influencing the prognosis were analyzed.Results Acute epidural hematomas (n=29) were much more common than subdural (n=5), subarachnoid (n=1) and intramedullary (n=3).Most hematomas were located in the cervical and thoracic vertebra regions.The etiology of acute spinal spontaneous hematoma was unknown in most patients.Twenty-nine patients were dealt with surgical intervention and 9 patients were treated conservatively.After 6-month follow up, recovery rate measured by JOA score in patients of spinal injury ASIA level A and B was (51.26 ±38.97), and level C, D and E was (80.33 ±25.83), P<0.05.Recovery rate in patients with hematoma discovered in less then 24 hours treated with surgical decompression was (64.79 ±36.10), and that in those with hematoma present over 24 hours was (34.54 ±30.17), P<0.05.Conclusions Acute spinal hematoma always caused by unknown etiology, and usually manifests itself in a sudden onset of pain and neurological deficits.The early diagnosis mainly depends on MRI.Patients presenting with severe neurologic dysfunction or showing signs of progressive deficit should have immediate surgical intervention. The status of neurological deficits before surgery and the length of interval between onset and surgical intervention are associated with recovery.

Staphylococcus aureus, or methicillin-resistant S. aureus (MRSA), is a significant pathogen in both nosocomial and community infections. Community-associated MRSA (CA-MRSA) strains tend to be multi-drug resistant and to invade hospital settings. This study aimed to assess the antimicrobial resistance and molecular characteristicsof nasal S. aureus among newlyadmitted inpatients.In the present study, 66 S. aureus isolates, including 10 healthcare-associated MRSA (HA-MRSA), 8 CA-MRSA, and 48 methicillin-sensitive S. aureus (MSSA) strains, were found in the nasal cavities of 62 patients by screening 292 newlyadmitted patients. Antimicrobial resistance and molecular characteristics of these isolates, including spa-type, sequence type (ST) and SCCmec type, were investigated. All isolates were sensitive to linezolid, teicoplanin, and quinupristin/dalfopristin, but high levels of resistance to penicillin and erythromycin were detected. According to D-test and erm gene detection results, the cMLSB and iMLSB phenotypes were detected in 24 and 16 isolates, respectively. All 10 HA-MRSA strains displayed the cMLSB phenotypemediated by ermA or ermA/ermC, while the cMLSB CA-MRSA and MSSA strains carried the ermB gene. Molecular characterization revealedall 10 HA-MRSA strains were derived from the ST239-SCCmec III clone, and four out of eight CA-MRSA strains were t437-ST59-SCCmec V. The results suggest that patients play an indispensable role in transmitting epidemic CA-MRSA and HA-MRSA strains.
