Objective To compare the clinical efficacy of typeⅡhybrid surgery versus Sun’s surgery in treating acute Stanford A aortic dissection. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of patients with acute Stanford A aortic dissection who were treated at the Central Hospital of Wuhan affiliated to Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology from 2016 to 2022. According to the surgical method, patients were divided into a typeⅡhybrid group and a Sun’s surgery group, and the clinical efficacy of the two groups was compared. Results A total of 52 patients were included, with 22 in the typeⅡhybrid surgery group and 30 in the Sun’s surgery group. The typeⅡhybrid group consisted of 18 males and 4 females, with an average age of (58.18±6.00) years, while the Sun’s surgery group consisted of 22 males and 8 females, with an average age of (53.03±11.89) years. All surgeries were successfully completed. There were 4 (13.3%) perioperative deaths in the Sun’s surgery group, including 2 patients of multiple organ failure, 1 patient of paraplegia, and 1 patient of uncontrollable postoperative bleeding. There was 1 (4.5%) perioperative death in the typeⅡhybrid surgery group, who was suspected of acute coronary syndrome and took a loading dose of dual antiplatelet drugs preoperatively. The patient underwent secondary thoracotomy for hemostasis, was re-cannulated during the operation, and finally died of circulatory failure after implantation of intra-aortic balloon pumping. There was no statistical difference in perioperative mortality between the two groups (P=0.381). Compared with the Sun’s surgery group, the typeⅡhybrid surgery group had shorter cardiopulmonary bypass time [153.00 (135.00, 185.25) min vs. 182.50 (166.50, 196.75) min, P=0.013], aortic cross-clamping time [77.00 (70.50, 92.00) min vs. 102.50 (93.50, 109.75) min, P<0.001], postoperative ICU stay [4.00 (2.83, 6.00) days vs. 8.00 (6.38, 11.78) days, P<0.001], postoperative ventilator support time [72.00 (29.50, 93.25) h vs. 87.65 (39.13, 139.13) h, P=0.138], less intraoperative blood loss [(1586.82±209.41) mL vs. (1 806.00±292.62) mL, P=0.004], postoperative 24 h drainage volume [612.50 (507.50, 762.50) mL vs. 687.50 (518.75, 993.75) mL, P=0.409], and shorter postoperative hospital stay [18.00 (13.00, 20.25) days vs. 22.00 (17.00, 29.25) days, P=0.013]. There was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of other early postoperative complications such as secondary thoracotomy for hemostasis, tracheotomy, renal dysfunction requiring dialysis, stroke, and paraplegia between the two groups (P>0.05). Conclusion For patients with acute Stanford A aortic dissection, typeⅡhybrid surgery is safe and effective; compared with traditional Sun’s surgery, typeⅡhybrid surgery has relatively less trauma, lower incidence of complications, satisfactory short-term results, and further research is needed on long-term prognosis.

Objective:To investigate the relationships among coping styles,negative life events,meaning in life,and psychological resilience in adolescents.Methods:A total of 1 434 adolescents aged 13 to 17 years comple-ted online questionnaire survey.The Simplified Coping Style Questionnaire(SCSQ),Adolescent Self-Rating Life E-vents Checklist(ASLEC),Chinese Meaning in Life Questionnaire(C-MLQ),and Connor-Davidson resilience scale(CD-RISC)were used to assess coping styles,perceived impact of negative life events,experience and pursuit of meaning in life,and ability to cope with and adapt to adversity,respectively.Logistic regression was used to explore the associations among these variables.Results:A total of 723 students(50.4％)tended to adopt negative coping styles when facing adverse events.Positive coping styles were negatively associated with being in senior high school(OR=0.62,P＜0.05)and impact of life events(OR=0.97,P＜0.001),while positively associated with sense of meaning in life(OR=1.04,P＜0.001)and psychological resilience(OR=1.04,P＜0.001).Conclusion:Among adolescents,positive coping styles are inversely associated with impact of negative life events,and positively associ-ated with both the sense of life meaning and psychological resilience.

To investigate the current situation and demand for specialized development of allergy nursing in 88 hospitals in Guangdong Province, as well as to provide evidence for the management of allergy nursing. From August to December 2023, a cross-sectional study was conducted to analyze the core managers of allergy nursing-related work in eighty-eight hospitals in Guangdong Province supported by the Allergy Nursing Branch of the Guangdong Nurses Association and the Nursing Group of the Allergy Branch of the Guangdong Medical Association. An online survey was conducted using the Delphi method to compile a questionnaire on the current status and demand for specialized development of allergy nursing in Guangdong Province. Chi-square tests and Fisher′s exact probability method were used to analyze the differences in the current status of specialty technology applications and the development and demand of specialized nursing between hospitals with or without allergy specialty departments. The results showed that among the eighty-eight hospitals in the nineteen prefecture-level cities surveyed in Guangdong Province, 17 hospitals (19%) had established allergy specialty departments, all of which were top-tier tertiary hospitals. The establishment duration [ M ( Q1, Q3)] was 3 (1, 10) years. The implementation rates of skin prick test (94%, 16/17), in-vitro examination (82%, 14/17), nasal endoscopy (82%, 14/17), subcutaneous specific immunotherapy (82%, 14/17), multidisciplinary consultation (65%, 11/17), fractional exhaled nitric oxide detection (47%, 8/17), skin patch test (41%, 7/17), and autologous serum skin test (35%, 6/17) in hospitals with allergy department were higher than those in hospitals without allergy department [59%, 42/71 ( χ 2= 7.462, P=0.006)], [54%, 38/71 ( χ 2= 4.717, P=0.030)], [51%, 36/71 ( χ 2= 5.599, P=0.018)], [34%, 24/71 ( χ 2= 13.177, P<0.001)], [24%, 17/71 ( χ 2= 10.505, P=0.001)], [24%, 17/71 ( χ 2= 5.540, P=0.019)], [11%, 8/71 (Fisher′s exact test, P=0.008)], [11%, 8/71 (Fisher′s exact test, P=0.025)]. In the development plan of allergy nursing in the next two years, hospitals that had set up allergy departments had a higher proportion in adding nurses (82%, 14/17, χ 2= 13.177, P<0.001), formulating specialized nurse training plans (71%, 12/17, χ 2= 3.980, P=0.046), formulating group standards or clinical guidelines (41%, 7/17, Fisher′s exact test, P=0.046), and formulating assessment standards (53%, 9/17, Fisher′s exact test, P=0.002). The demand for all aspects of allergy specialty nursing knowledge and skills accounted for more than 50%, and it was not related to whether the hospital set up an allergy department. In conclusion, the specialized development of allergy nursing in Guangdong province is still in its early stages, and there is a great demand for improving knowledge and skills in allergy. Further standardization of specialty construction is needed, along with the training of allergic nurses, to promote the comprehensive development of allergic reaction nursing specialties from point to area.

Objective To retrospectively analyze the distribution and drug resistant characteristics of isolated pathogens （especially Gram-negative bacteria） in hospital and promote the rational use of antibacterial drugs. Methods The pathogens and drug sensitivity test results were collected from the whole hospital every quarter from July 2018 to March 2023, and were conducted retrospective analysis. Results A total of 14 844 pathogens were isolated and detected, including 4 757 Gram-positive bacteria （32.05%） and 10 087 Gram-negative bacteria （67.95%）. The detection rate of extended spectrum beta-lactamases Escherichia coli was 43.23%, and it maintained high sensitivity to carbapenems and enzyme inhibitors, and the sensitivity rate was about 99.00%. The drug resistance of Klebsiella pneumoniae was more serious, and carbapenem-resistant, multi-drug resistance and extensively-drug resistance appeared. In 2022，the detection rate of carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae was 54.82%; the detection rates of carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas Aeruginosa and carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii in non-fermentative bacteria were 22.02% and 74.34%, the detection rate of multi-drug resistant Acinetobacter baumannii was >70%. Conclusion The problem of drug resistance of Gram-negative bacteria was still serious, especially in Klebsiella pneumoniae and Acinetobacter baumannii. The problem of bacterial resistance poses great challenges to clinical treatment, and it is necessary to conduct regular monitoring and promote rational drug use.

Objective Comprehensive mortality risk analyses and therapeutic assessment in real-world practice are beneficial to guide individual treatment in patients with Carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae bloodstream infections(CRKP-BSI).Methods Retrospective analysis of the clinical characteristics of 81 CRKP-BSI patients in our intensive care unit from July 2016 to June 2020,to indentify the risk factors of death and treatment effects of different antibiotic regimens.Results In 81 CRKP-BSI cases,the majority source were from abdominal and respiratory,accounting for 56.79%(46 cases)and 22.22%(18 cases),respectively.The 28-day mortality and hospitalization mortality of CRKP-BSI were 54.32%(44 cases)and 65.43%(53 cases).Multivariate regression analysis suggested that biliary tract disease before admission(P=0.026)and increased SOFA score at the onset of BSI(P=0.006)were independent risk factors for 28-day mortality.There was no statistically significant difference in 28-day mortality between the groups of antibiotic treatment based on tigecycline(44 cases)and polymyxin B(26 cases)[56.82%(25/44)vs.57.69%(15/26),P=0.943].Patients were evaluated based on their age(≤65 years vs.>65 years),gender,body mass index(≤25 kg/m2 vs.>25 kg/m2),and APACHEⅡ score(≤20 vs.>20),the use of renal replacement therapy and mechanical ventilation,there was no difference in the mortality among each subgroup.Conclusions Biliary tract disease before admission and SOFA score were independent risk factors for 28-day mortality.There was no significant difference outcomes between tigecycline-and polymyxin B-based therapy.

As a novel and promising antitumor target, AXL plays an important role in tumor growth, metastasis, immunosuppression and drug resistance of various malignancies, which has attracted extensive research interest in recent years. In this study, by employing the structure-based drug design and bioisosterism strategies, we designed and synthesized in total 54 novel AXL inhibitors featuring a fused-pyrazolone carboxamide scaffold, of which up to 20 compounds exhibited excellent AXL kinase and BaF3/TEL-AXL cell viability inhibitions. Notably, compound 59 showed a desirable AXL kinase inhibitory activity (IC₅₀: 3.5 nmol/L) as well as good kinase selectivity, and it effectively blocked the cellular AXL signaling. In turn, compound 59 could potently inhibit BaF3/TEL-AXL cell viability (IC₅₀: 1.5 nmol/L) and significantly suppress GAS6/AXL-mediated cancer cell invasion, migration and wound healing at the nanomolar level. More importantly, compound 59 oral administration showed good pharmacokinetic profile and in vivo antitumor efficiency, in which we observed significant AXL phosphorylation suppression, and its antitumor efficacy at 20 mg/kg (qd) was comparable to that of BGB324 at 50 mg/kg (bid), the most advanced AXL inhibitor. Taken together, this work provided a valuable lead compound as a potential AXL inhibitor for the further antitumor drug development.

Objective     To analyze the clinical effect of hybrid surgery on complex type B aortic dissection in 5 years. Methods     A retrospective analysis of 47 patients with complex type B aortic dissection in the Central Hospital of Wuhan affiliated to Tongji Medical College of Huazhong University of Science and Technology from 2014 to 2017 was conducted, including 42 males and 5 females with an average age of 54.9±11.2 years. Twenty-one patients underwent the left common carotid artery to the left subclavian artery bypass (a bypass group), and 26 patients underwent the left common carotid artery to the left subclavian artery transposition (a transposition group). Results     All patients accepted hybrid surgery successfully. There was no statistical difference in arterial occlusion time or intraoperative blood loss between the two groups (P>0.05). The 5-year follow-up rate was 100.0% (47/47). During the follow-up period, 12 (25.5%) patients developed complications, including 5 (10.6%) patients of endoleak, 5 (10.6%) patients of hoarseness, 2 (4.3%) patients of stroke/dizziness. There was no patient of left upper limb weakness, paraplegia or retrograde aotic dissection. The reconstructed left subclavian artery remained patent in 46 (97.9%) patients. The overall 5-year survival rate was 100.0%. Conclusion     The long-term therapeutic outcome of hybrid surgery for the treatment of complex type B aortic dissection is satisfying. In 5 years, the rebuilt left subclavian artery has a remarkable patency rate. Endoleak and hoarseness are the most common surgical complications.

OBJECTIVE: To compare the effects of medical ozone oil and urea ointment for prevention and treatment of hand-foot skin reaction (HFSR) caused by sorafenib in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). METHODS: A total of 99 patients diagnosed with advanced HCC according to National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) who were scheduled to receive sorafenib treatment for the first time were enrolled in this study between April, 2018 and January, 2020.
