OBJECTIVE To establish refined medication rules for parenteral nutrition (PN) and evaluate its effectiveness. METHODS Refined medication rules for PN were constructed based on drug instructions, relevant guidelines, and expert consensus. Through the pre-approval review system of prescription automatic screening system (PASS), PN prescription information for inpatients from January to December 2024 (referred to as “post-intervention”) was collected to analyze the post- intervention prescription review status. PN prescription information for inpatients at our hospital from January to December 2023 and January to December 2024 was collected through the medical order review system to evaluate the rationality rates of PN prescriptions. RESULTS The established refined medication rules for PN included system module rules (including nutrients, drug compatibility, PN concentration and osmotic pressure) and custom review rules (covering off-label drug use, drug compatibility, and other drug use conditions). As of December 2024, the PASS pre-approval review system had established a total of 102 rules, comprising 55 system module rules and 47 custom review rules for PN. After intervention, when comparing with the first quarter of 2024, the number of PN reviewed and intervened by pharmacists decreased, the pharmacist intervention rate dropped, while the rate of physician modifications following pharmacist intervention increased in the fourth quarter. The primary types of irrational prescriptions identified by the system module rules were irrational PN concentration and osmotic pressure. The primary types of irrational prescriptions identified by the custom review rules were off-label drug use (specifically indications for amino acids) and irrational drug incompatibility. In 2024, the number of false-positive tasks and the false-positive rate initially increased and then decreased, while both the number of irrational prescriptions identified through manual review and the false-negative rate showed a declining trend. In 2024, the overall rationality rate after manual review PN refined medication rules for PN medical order review system significantly increased compared to that in 2023 (P<0.01). CONCLUSIONS The refined medication rules for PN in our hospital were established successfully, which can reduce the PN-induced risks and significantly improve the rationality of PN prescriptions.

The incidence rate of kidney diseases in China has always remained high.At present,the clinical treat-ment mainly focuses on symptomatic treatment to delay the progression of the disease,and there is a lack of eco-nomical and effective treatment methods.MicroRNA plays an important regulatory role in the occurrence and devel-opment of diseases.This study aims to explore the role and regulatory mechanism of miR-142a-3p in adriamycin(ADR)-induced renal tubular epithelial cell(TCMK-1)injury,with a focus on its potential as a therapeutic target for ADR nephropathy.First,cell viability was assessed using the CCK-8 kit,and a mouse renal tubular epithelial cell model induced by ADR was established.Subsequently,alterations in miR-142a-3p and its target gene ATG16L1 mRNA levels were quantified using RT-qPCR.Western blotting was used to detect the protein levels of autophagy marker proteins and pyroptosis marker proteins.Monodansylcadaverin(MDC)staining was performed and the autophagy of cells was detected by flow cytometry.The results showed that the relative expression of miR-142a-3p in TCMK-1 cells induced by ADR was increased and the relative expression of its target gene ATG16L1 was decreased(P<0.0001).Western blotting results showed that the levels of p62(P<0.001)and pyroptosis-related proteins(P<0.001)were increased,while the protein levels of autophagy-related proteins were decreased(P<0.05).The flow cytometry results showed that there was no difference in the mean fluorescence intensity of autoph-agosomes between the ADR group and the autophagosome inhibitor group(3-MA group)(P>0.05),indicating that after ADR induction,cell autophagy was inhibited and pyroptosis was enhanced.When the expression of miR-142a-3p was inhibited by transfecting miR-142a-3p inhibitor,the relative expression level of the target gene ATG16L1 was restored(P<0.001).Western blotting showed that the protein level of p62(P<0.01)and pyropto-sis-related proteins(P<0.01)were decreased,and the protein level of autophagy-related proteins was restored(P<0.001).Flow cytometry results further indicated that cell autophagy was restored(P<0.0001).In conclusion,ADR targets A TG1 6L1 through miR-142a-3p to reduce the autophagy level of TCMK-1,and simultaneously activates GSDMD-mediated pyroptosis.

Objective:To explore the mediating role of self-perceived aging in the relationship between perceived social support and self-efficacy for exercise in aged patients undergoing surgery for lung cancer and provide a basis for formulating relevant clinical intervention strategies.Methods:Totally 220 aged lung cancer patients who underwent surgery and were hospitalized at the Cancer Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences and Peking Union Medical College, from April to June 2024 were recruited by convenience sampling. Patients completed a demographic questionnaire, the Self-Efficacy for Exercise (SEE) , the Ageing Perceptions Questionnaire (B-APQ) , and the Perceived Social Support Scale (PSSS) . The mediation effect of self-perceived aging between perceived social support and self-efficacy for exercise was analyzed using Model 4 in the SPSS Process macro.Results:A total of 220 questionnaires were distributed, and 207 valid questionnaires were returned, with an effective recovery rate of 94.09%. The total score for B-APQ was (46.93±11.35) , the SEE score was (44.12±12.83) , and the PSSS score was (53.18±13.53) . Perceived social support had a direct effect on self-efficacy for exercise (effect value: 0.278; P<0.01) . Self-perceived aging played a partial mediating role between perceived social support and self-efficacy for exercise, with a mediation effect value of 0.138 ( P<0.01) , accounting for 33.17% of the total effect (0.138/0.416) . Conclusions:Perceived social support directly influences self-efficacy for exercise in aged patients undergoing surgery for lung cancer and also exerts an indirect effect through self-perceived aging. It is recommended that healthcare providers guide these patients to establish a positive perception of aging while focusing on enhancing their social support levels to improve their self-efficacy for exercise and promote recovery.

Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury is a common sports-related injury, and its occurrence is closely related to various genetic factors. In order to summarize and identify the genetic factors associated with ACL injury and reveal the role of these factors in the etiological mechanism, thereby providing a scientific basis for the prevention of ACL injury, we focused on analyzing the genotypes that are strongly associated with ACL injury. Particular emphasis was placed on collagen genes that are closely related to the structure and function of the ligament, such as COL1A1, COL5A1, COL3A1, COL6A1 and COL12A1. Other key genes, such as matrix metalloproteinase (MMP), with single-nucleotide polymorphisms may also play important roles in the ACL injury process. Polymorphisms in COL1A1, COL3A1, COL5A1, and COL12A1 genes in the collagen family have been shown to correlate with ligament strength and reparative capacity, but there are conflicting results from studies in different populations. Certain genotypes (e.g., COL1A1-specific haplotypes) showed protective effects in European and American athletes, whereas no association was found in Middle Eastern or Asian populations, suggesting the influence of differences in genetic background. Among the extracellular matrix-related genes, polymorphisms in the MMP and proteoglycan genes are involved in the mechanism of injury by regulating the balance between extracellular matrix degradation and synthesis. Some of these variants (e.g., MMP3) exhibit sex-specific effects, with significant changes in risk in females carrying specific genotypes. Polymorphisms in apoptosis-regulating genes such as Casp8 and angiogenic pathway genes further emphasize the genetic complexity, and their risk effects vary significantly among different types of sports and mechanisms of injury (e.g., non-contact injuries). The mechanism of ACL injury is complex, and the susceptibility to injury is influenced by a combination of genetic and environmental factors with significant differences between populations and genders.

ObjectiveThe controllability changes of structural brain network were explored based on the control and brain network theory in young smokers, this may reveal that the controllability indicators can serve as a powerful factor to predict the sleep status in young smokers. MethodsFifty young smokers and 51 healthy controls from Inner Mongolia University of Science and Technology were enrolled. Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) was used to construct structural brain network based on fractional anisotropy (FA) weight matrix. According to the control and brain network theory, the average controllability and the modal controllability were calculated. Two-sample t-test was used to compare the differences between the groups and Pearson correlation analysis to examine the correlation between significant average controllability and modal controllability with Fagerström Test of Nicotine Dependence (FTND) in young smokers. The nodes with the controllability score in the top 10% were selected as the super-controllers. Finally, we used BP neural network to predict the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) in young smokers. ResultsThe average controllability of dorsolateral superior frontal gyrus, supplementary motor area, lenticular nucleus putamen, and lenticular nucleus pallidum, and the modal controllability of orbital inferior frontal gyrus, supplementary motor area, gyrus rectus, and posterior cingulate gyrus in the young smokers’ group, were all significantly different from those of the healthy controls group (P<0.05). The average controllability of the right supplementary motor area (SMA.R) in the young smokers group was positively correlated with FTND (r=0.393 0, P=0.004 8), while modal controllability was negatively correlated with FTND (r=-0.330 1, P=0.019 2). ConclusionThe controllability of structural brain network in young smokers is abnormal. which may serve as an indicator to predict sleep condition. It may provide the imaging evidence for evaluating the cognitive function impairment in young smokers.
