Objective To evaluate the efficacy of the DrCloudme platform in follow-ups of intracranial aneurysm(IA)patients.Methods A randomized controlled trial was conducted with 120 IA patients treated at Hechi People's Hospital from July 2021 to June 2024.Participants were equally allocated via random number table method into two groups:The control group(n=60)received conventional telephone follow-up post interventional embolization,while the intervention group(n=60)uti-lized the DrCloudme platform for digital follow-up management.Outcome measures included medical compliance,social functio-ning(assessed by Social Disability Screening Schedule,SDSS),quality of life(evaluated using Quality of Life Instrument for Head and Neck Cancer,QLICP-HN),follow-up completion rates,and patient satisfaction.Results The observation group dem-onstrated significantly higher medical compliance,follow-up completion rate,and follow-up patient satisfaction compared to the control group(P＜0.05).Additionally,the observation group had lower SDSS scores and higher QLICP-HN scores,indicating better social function and quality of life(P＜0.05).Conclusion The DrCloudme platform can not only improve the follow-up completion rate for healthcare providers,but also enhance medical compliance,social functioning,and quality of life among dis-charged IA patients.Moreover,it significantly boosts patient satisfaction with follow-ups.

The development of safe and effective carriers is crucial for improving the in vivo stability of siRNA drugs and facilitating their clinical translation. Chitosan (CS), a natural cationic polymer, shows great potential in nucleic acid drug delivery. To optimize the physicochemical properties of CS/siRNA nanoparticles (NPs) and increase their siRNA delivery efficacy, in this study, hyaluronic acid (HA) was added into CS to form stable complex NPs through electrostatic interactions. The HA component is able to target the CD44 receptors on the surface of tumor cells, facilitating efficient siRNA delivery. First, we systematically investigated the effects of the molecular weights and mass ratio of CS and HA on the physicochemical properties of CS/HA NPs. The results showed that at HA: CS mass ratios of approximately 5:5 and 6:4, the complex NPs exhibited small particle sizes, narrow size distribution, and high storage stability. Under similar conditions, the size of CS/HA NPs increased with the increase in the molecular weights of CS and HA. Based on these findings, suitable conditions were selected to prepare CS/HA NPs for siRNA delivery. Cell experiments demonstrated that the introduction of HA effectively reduced the cytotoxicity of the CS delivery system and enhanced the NP uptake. The CS/HA/siRNA NPs achieved 50% to 60% silencing of the luciferase gene in HeLa-Luc cells. CS/HA NPs formed smaller nanoparticles with siRNA than pure CS and mediated specific interactions with tumor cells via HA, leading to efficient siRNA delivery. These findings provide valuable insights into the construction of natural polymer composite nanoparticles for application in siRNA delivery.
