BACKGROUND:We have successfully established an animal model of small ear pig in southern Yunnan province with internal tension relieving technique combined with autologous Achilles tendon for anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction,and verified the stability and reliability of the model.However,whether internal tension relieving technique can promote the ligamentalization process of autologous Achilles tendon graft has not been studied. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the differences in the process of ligamentalization between conventional reconstruction and internal reduction reconstruction of the anterior cruciate ligament by gross view,histology and electron microscopy. METHODS:Thirty adult female small ear pigs in southern Yunnan province were selected.Anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction was performed on the left knee joint with the ipsilateral knee Achilles tendon(n=30 in the normal group),and anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction was performed on the right knee joint with the ipsilateral knee Achilles tendon combined with the internal relaxation and enhancement system(n=30 in the relaxation group).The autogenous right forelimb was used as the control group;the anterior cruciate ligament was exposed but not severed or surgically treated.At 12,24,and 48 weeks after surgery,10 animals were sacrificed,respectively.The left and right knee joint specimens were taken for gross morphological observation to evaluate the graft morphology.MAS score was used to evaluate the excellent and good rate of the ligament at each time point.Hematoxylin-eosin staining was used to evaluate the degree of ligament graft vascularization.Collagen fibers and nuclear morphology were observed,and nuclear morphology was scored.Ultrastructural remodeling was evaluated by scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)The ligament healing shape of the relaxation group was better at various time points after surgery,and the excellent and good rate of MAS score was higher(P<0.05).Moreover,the relaxation group could obtain higher ligament vascularization score(P<0.05).(2)The arrangement of collagen bundles and fiber bundles in the two groups gradually tended to be orderly,and the transverse fiber connections between collagen gradually increased and thickened,suggesting that the strength and shape degree of the grafts were gradually improved,but the ligament remodeling in the relaxation group was always faster than that in the normal group at various time points after surgery.(3)The diameter,distribution density,and arrangement degree of collagen fibers in the relaxation group were better than those in the normal group at all time points,especially in the comparison of collagen fiber diameter between and within the relaxation group(P<0.05).

Implementation Science is an interdisciplinary field dedicated to systematically studying how to effectively translate evidence-based research findings into practical application and implementation. In the health-related context, it focuses on enhancing the efficiency and quality of healthcare services, thereby facilitating the transition from scientific evidence to real-world practice. This article elaborates on Theories, Models, and Frameworks (TMF) within health-related Implementation Science, clarifying their basic concepts and classifications, and discussing their roles in guiding implementation processes. Furthermore, it reviews and prospects current research from three aspects: the constituent elements of TMF, their practical applications, and future directions. Five representative frameworks are emphasized, including the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research (CFIR), the Practical Robust Implementation and Sustainability Model (PRISM), the Exploration, Preparation, Implementation, Sustainment (EPIS)framework, the Behavior Change Wheel (BCW), and the Normalization Process Theory (NPT). Additionally, resources such as the Dissemination & Implementation Models Webtool and the T-CaST tool are introduced to assist researchers in selecting appropriate TMFs based on project-specific needs.

Cation exchange chromatography, as a commonly used separation and purification technique in biopharmaceutical manufacturing, is often employed for downstream processes to separate target monoclonal antibodies from their charge variants. For samples with complex and poorly resolved charge variant profiles, the collection solely based on ultraviolet detection does not provide specific compositional information for individual charge variants, making it challenging to determine the range of pooled fractions directly. Subsequent laborious fractionation analysis is then required to guide collection according to production requirements. A mechanistic model for the cation exchange chromatography process of the target monoclonal antibody's critical components was established, and it was employed to assist in product collection. The model accurately predicted the elution peak shapes of the modeled variants, with a root mean square error between predicted and actual values below 0.009. In comparison to the online ultraviolet-based collection method, the model-assisted collection method not only visualized the chromatographic process but also increased the relative productivity by fourfold while ensuring compliance rate.

ObjectiveTo observe the clinical effect of crocin tablets (CRO) combined with micropump infusion of doxorubicin in the prevention of acute cardiotoxicity in the patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and explore the related mechanism. MethodThe patients with DLBCL treated in the Huangshi Central Hospital from October 2022 to October 2023 were selected, and 92 patients who met the inclusion criteria were randomly assigned to a control group and an observation group at a ratio of 1∶1, with 46 patients in each group. The control group underwent conventional intravenous infusion of doxorubicin, and the observation group received CRO combined with micropump infusion of doxorubicin. The changes of abnormal ECG, myocardial injury markers, cardiac function indicators, oxidative stress, inflammatory mediators, and hemorheological indexes before and after chemotherapy were compared between the two groups. ResultThe incidence of abnormal ECG in the observation group was 23.91% (11/46), which was lower than that (54.35%, 25/46) in the control group (χ2=8.944, P<0.01). On day 8 after chemotherapy, the abnormal rates of creatine kinase-MB (CK-MB) and cardiac troponin I (cTnI) in the observation group were lower than those in the control group (χ2=4.423, 4.857, both P<0.05). Compared with the control group after chemotherapy, the observation group showed lowered level of N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide, elevated left ventricular ejection fraction and levels of total antioxidant capacity and superoxide dismutase (P<0.01), declined levels of interleukin-6 and tumor necrosis factor-α (P<0.01), and decreased low whole blood viscosity, high whole blood viscosity, plasma viscosity, and fibrinogen (P<0.01). ConclusionCRO combined with micropump infusion of doxorubicin can mitigate acute cardiotoxicity, reduce the incidence of abnormal ECG, protect cardiomyocytes, and improve the cardiac function by exerting the antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects and improving blood flow.

Objective:To report the results of national surveillance on the distribution and antimicrobial resistance profile of clinical Gram-negative bacteria isolates from bloodstream infections in China in 2022.Methods:The clinical isolates of Gram-negative bacteria from blood cultures in member hospitals of national bloodstream infection Bacterial Resistant Investigation Collaborative System(BRICS)were collected during January 2022 to December 2022. Antibiotic susceptibility tests were conducted by agar dilution or broth dilution methods recommended by Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute(CLSI). WHONET 5.6 and SPSS 25.0 software were used to analyze the data.Results:During the study period,9 035 strains of Gram-negative bacteria were collected from 51 hospitals,of which 7 895(87.4%)were Enterobacteriaceae and 1 140(12.6%)were non-fermenting bacteria. The top 5 bacterial species were Escherichia coli( n=4 510,49.9%), Klebsiella pneumoniae( n=2 340,25.9%), Pseudomonas aeruginosa( n=534,5.9%), Acinetobacter baumannii complex( n=405,4.5%)and Enterobacter cloacae( n=327,3.6%). The ESBLs-producing rates in Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae and Proteus spp. were 47.1%(2 095/4 452),21.0%(427/2 033)and 41.1%(58/141),respectively. The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Escherichia coli(CREC)and carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae(CRKP)were 1.3%(58/4 510)and 13.1%(307/2 340);62.1%(36/58)and 9.8%(30/307)of CREC and CRKP were resistant to ceftazidime/avibactam combination,respectively. The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii(CRAB)complex was 59.5%(241/405),while less than 5% of Acinetobacter baumannii complex was resistant to tigecycline and polymyxin B. The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa(CRPA)was 18.4%(98/534). There were differences in the composition ratio of Gram-negative bacteria in bloodstream infections and the prevalence of main Gram-negative bacteria resistance among different regions,with statistically significant differences in the prevalence of CRKP and CRPA( χ2=20.489 and 20.252, P<0.001). The prevalence of CREC,CRKP,CRPA,CRAB,ESBLs-producing Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae were higher in provinicial hospitals than those in municipal hospitals( χ2=11.953,81.183,10.404,5.915,12.415 and 6.459, P<0.01 or <0.05),while the prevalence of CRPA was higher in economically developed regions(per capita GDP ≥ 92 059 Yuan)than that in economically less-developed regions(per capita GDP <92 059 Yuan)( χ2=6.240, P=0.012). Conclusions:The proportion of Gram-negative bacteria in bloodstream infections shows an increasing trend,and Escherichia coli is ranked in the top,while the trend of CRKP decreases continuously with time. Decreasing trends are noted in ESBLs-producing Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae. Low prevalence of carbapenem resistance in Escherichia coli and high prevalence in CRAB complex have been observed. The composition ratio and antibacterial spectrum of bloodstream infections in different regions of China are slightly different,and the proportion of main drug resistant bacteria in provincial hospitals is higher than those in municipal hospitals.

Objective To construct trajectory models of care-seeking patterns for type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM)patients,analyze the influencing factors of different trajectories,and explore the fasting blood glucose control levels of T2DM patients with different trajectories.Methods A retrospective cohort study was carried out on 18088 T2DM patients who had health records and been involved in the diabetic management in Community Health Service Center of Minhang District,Shanghai from 2006 to 2009.Starting from Jan 1,2010,participants were followed up until Dec 31,2019,with complete follow-up information.Group-based trajectory modelling(GBTM)was employed to identify and construct the fluctuation trajectory of fasting blood glucose in the patients.Bayesian information criterion(BIC),average posterior probability(AvePP)and other evaluation indicators were used to select the optimum subgroup number model.Then the differences in demographic characteristics,health status,family history,fasting blood glucose,BMI,etc were compared among different categories.Multinational logistic regression model was constructed to explore the influencing factors of different fluctuation trajectories.Cox regression analysis was used to examine the relationship between the long-term trajectories of care-seeking patterns and fasting blood glucose control level.Results Using GBTM analysis,we constructed the optimal Model 4 to categorize 18088 T2DM patients with community health records into five distinct trajectory subgroups:continuous non-attendance group(22.29%),low-level increasing group(15.09%),high-level slowly decreasing group(14.18%),high-level rapidly decreasing group(14.90%),and continuous regular attendance group(33.54%).With the continuous regular attendance group serving as the reference,gender,age,place of residence,baseline comorbidity of hypertension,baseline fasting plasma glucose level,and BMI were found to influence the community attendance trajectories of T2DM patients(P<0.05).After adjusting for confounding factors,Cox regression analysis revealed that compared to the continuous non-attendance group,the low-level increasing group,high-level slowly decreasing group,and continuous regular attendance group had better glycemic control,with HRs of 0.37(95%CI:0.34-0.39),0.72(95%CI:0.67-0.78),and 0.78(95%CI:0.73-0.84),respectively.The glycemic control level in the high-level rapidly decreasing group was comparable,with an HR of 1.06(95%CI:0.99-1.12).Conclusion Based on the optimal model,the community medical treatment trajectories of T2DM patients showed different dynamic characteristics.Factors such as gender,residence,hypertension,and weight loss may influence these varying trajectories.Regular community visits and follow-up may help control blood glucose levels.

Objective:The expression of serum free light chain(FLC)is abnormal in various diseases,but its role in lung cancer remains unclear.This study aims to investigate the expression and diagnostic value of serum FLC in lung cancer. Methods:A total of 80 lung cancer patients treated at Xiangdong Hospital,Hunan Normal University from January to December 2021 were selected as the lung cancer group.Another 80 healthy individuals undergoing routine physical examinations during the same period were chosen as the control group.General information and serum κFLC and λFLC levels were collected for all subjects.Clinical indicators such as serum carcinoembryonic antigen(CEA),cytokeratin fragment antigen 21-1(CYFRA21-1)levels,tumor diameter,histological type,TNM stage,and lymph node metastasis status were recorded for lung cancer patients.The expression levels of serum FLC[κFLC,λFLC,and FLC(κ+λ)]were compared between the lung cancer group and the control group.Lung cancer patients were grouped based on gender,age,smoking history,tumor diameter,TNM stage,histological type,and lymph node metastasis to compare differences in serum κFLC and λFLC levels.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curves were used to evaluate the diagnostic value of serum FLC alone and in combination with other indicators in lung cancer. Results:The expression levels of serum FLC(κ+λ)and κFLC were significantly higher in the lung cancer group than those in the control group(both P<0.001),while there was no significant difference in serum λFLC levels between the 2 groups(P>0.05).There were no significant differences in serum κFLC levels among lung cancer patients with different tumor diameters,histological types,or TNM stages(all P>0.05);however,serum κFLC levels were higher in lung cancer patients with lymph node metastasis than in those without,with statistical significance(P=0.033).There were no significant differences in serum λFLC levels based on tumor diameter or histological type(both P>0.05),but serumλFLC levels were higher in stage Ⅲ+Ⅳ and lymph node metastatic lung cancer patients compared to stage Ⅰ+Ⅱ and non-metastatic patients,with statistical significance(P=0.033 and P=0.019,respectively).The area under the curve(AUC)for κFLC and CEA in diagnosing lung cancer showed no significant difference(P=0.333).The combination ofκFLC+CYFRA21-1 had the highest diagnostic efficacy(AUC=0.875)and sensitivity(71.3%).The AUC for the combined diagnosis of κFLC+λFLC+CEA+CYFRA21-1 was 0.915(95%CI 0.860 to 0.953,P<0.001). Conclusion:Serum FLC is highly expressed in lung cancer and is associated with its invasion and metastasis.Serum FLC,particularly κFLC,has diagnostic value for lung cancer,and the combined detection of FLC,CEA,and CYFRA21-1 offers the best diagnostic efficacy.
