One of its primary surgical treatments of tricuspid regurgitation is tricuspid valve biological valve replacement. Catheter tricuspid valve-in-valve implantation is a novel interventional alternative for biological valve failure. The non-invasive lung fluid measuring device remote dielectric sensing (ReDSTM) has been increasingly incorporated into clinical practice as a means of monitoring chronic heart failure in recent years. This report describes the process and outcomes of the first instance of perioperative lung fluid volume evaluation following transcatheter tricuspid valve implantation utilizing ReDSTM technology. The patient has a short-term, substantial increase in postoperative lung fluid volume as compared to baseline.

OBJECTIVE To explore the clinical distribution and drug resistance of common species of pathogens iso-lated from a three-A hospital of Guangzhou from Jan.2017 to 2023 Dec.so as to provide bases for clinical diagno-sis and reasonable use of antibiotics.METHODS A total of 10,086 strains of aerobic bacteria were clinically isola-ted from the patients who were hospitalized in a three-A hospital of Guangzhou from 2017 to 2023.The constituent ratios of the common species of pathogens,specimen sources,distribution of departments and drug resistance rates to commonly used antibiotics were retrospectively analyzed.RESULTS Totally 10,086 strains of pathogens were isolated from the specimens of the hospitalized patients from 2017 to 2023.Klebsiella pneumoniae,Pseudo-monas aeruginosa,Escherichia coli,Acinetobacter baumannii and Staphylococcus aureus ranked the top 5 species of pathogens.The sputum,midstream urine and whole blood were the major specimen sources.The hospital-asso-ciated infection was highly prevalent in critical care medicine department,neurology department,geriatrics depart-ment,neurosurgery department and urology department.The result of drug resistance showed that the drug re-sistance rates of the K.pneumoniae and P.aeruginosa strains to various types of antibiotics showed upward trends(P＜0.05);the drug resistance rate of the A.baumannii strains to imipenem was decreased,while the drug resist-ance rates to most of the antibiotics were more than 45％.No gram-positive cocci strains that were resistant to vancomycin,teicoplanin or linezolid were found.CONCLUSIONS The common clinical isolates of pathogens are generally resistant to antibiotics.It is necessary for clinicians to attach great importance to the culture of pathogens and drug susceptibility testing and reasonably use antibiotics based on the result of drug susceptibility testing so as to reduce the occurrence and spread of drug-resistant strains.The hospital should strengthen the surveillance of drug resistance of bacteria so as to boost the clinical curative effect,standardize the management and use of antibi-otics and take effective measures to control of the hospital-associated infection.

Objective:To observe the effect of stellate ganglion block(SGB)on the inflammatory response in rats with acute peritonitis,and to explore whether the possible anti-inflammatory mechanism related to the activation of α7nAChR receptor-mediated cholinergic anti-inflammatory pathway.Methods:A total of 36 SD rats were randomly divided into three groups,with 12 rats in each group:sham operation group(S group),acute peritonitis group(AP group)and SGB treatment group(SGB group).2%acetic acid(1 ml/100 g)was intraperitoneally injected to prepare acute peritonitis rat model in AP group and SGB group,and corresponding dose of normal saline was injected into S group.Right cervical sympathetic nerve was separated but not ligated in AP group and S group,the right cervical sympathetic nerve was severed and ligated in SGB group.Abdominal aorta blood samples were collected 24 h after opera-tion,and serum levels of IL-1β,IL-6 and TNF-α were measured by ELISA,pathological changes of peritoneal tissue were observed by light microscope and expression of α7nAChR in peritoneal tissue was measured by Western blot.Results:Compared with S group,se-rum levels of IL-1β,IL-6 and TNF-α in AP and SGB groups were significantly increased(P<0.05).Serum levels of IL-1β,IL-6,TNF-α in SGB group were significantly lower than those in AP group(P<0.05).HE staining of peritoneal tissues in each group revealed that the S group maintained intact peritoneal structure with normal cellular arrangement,while the AP group exhibited disorganized archi-tecture with extensive inflammatory cell infiltration,frequent hemorrhage,and prominent necrotic cells.In contrast,the SGB group displayed only mild inflammatory infiltration with preserved cellular morphology and minimal hemorrhagic or necrotic changes.The ex-pression level of α7nAChR protein in SGB group was significantly higher than that in S group and AP group.Conclusion:SGB can re-duce the inflammatory response of acute peritonitis rats,and its mechanism may be related to the cholinergic anti-inflammatory path-way mediated by α7nAChR.

Objective To investigate the impact of pharmaceutical services provided by clinical pharmacists on rational drug use and cost control in hepatobiliary surgery under the Diagnosis Related Groups(DRGs)payment model,aming to provide evidence for improving the rationality of drug therapy and saving medical costs.Methods Patients classified under DRGs disease codes HB15,HB13,and HB11 from November 2022 to April 2024 were selected as study subjects.A total of 195 patients were included,with 106 in the intervention group and 89 in the control group.The intervention group received multidimensional clinical pharmaceutical services in addition to the standard care provided to the control group.The rational drug use rate,medication costs,total hospitalization expenses,and length of hospital stay were observed between the two groups.A cost-benefit analysis was employed to evaluate the economic impact of providing pharmaceutical services to hepatobiliary surgical patients.The cost indicator was the clinical pharmacy services cost,and the benefit indicators were the reductions in total hospitalization expenses and medication costs.The benefit-cost ratio(B/C)was calculated,and sensitivity analysis was performed.Results The intervention group showed significantly higher rational use rates of prophylactic antimicrobial agents(drug selection:83.96％vs.46.07％,P＜0.01;treatment duration:84.91％vs.56.18％,P＜0.01)and parenteral nutrition drugs(97.17％vs.73.03％,P＜0.01)compared to the control group.Additionally,the intervention group had significantly reduced the length of hospital stay,total hospitalization expenses,medication costs,and insurance over-expenditure compared to the control group(P＜0.05).Furthermore,clinical pharmacist intervention led to a reduction in medication costs by 4 320.05(2 555.00,5 088.25)yuan(CNY)and total hospitalization expenses by 8 891.12(5 135.05,10 074.03)yuan(CNY).The B/C ratios were 14.24(8.42,16.77)and 29.30(16.92,33.20),respectively,indicating economic efficiency.Sensitivity analysis supported these results.Conclusion Under the DRGs payment model,clinical pharmaceutical services guided by drug therapy pathways contribute to improving rational drug use in hepatobiliary surgery and provide clear economic benefits,playing a positive role in reducing medical costs.

Objective To explore the efficacy differences between 3 Tesla magnetic resonance imaging with zero echo time(3T MRI ZTE)and high resolution computed tomography(HRCT)in the detection of pulmonary nodules and the classification diagnosis of the lung imaging reporting and data system(Lung-RADS)in sub-health populations.Methods Clinical and imaging data of 93 patients with pulmonary nodules(126 nodules in total)admitted to some hospital from July to December 2023 were retrospectively analyzed.The 126 nodules were categorized into a benign nodule group(n=51)and a malignant nodule group(n=75)using pathological findings as the gold standard.All the patients underwent examinations by 3T MRI ZTE and HRCT to compare the detection rates of the two measures for pulmonary nodules;the missed and misdiagnosis rates of 3T MRI ZTE,HRCT and Lung-RADS grading were contrasted with the postoperative pathological diagnosis results as the gold standard;comparison analyses of 3T MRI ZTE signs and HRCT signs were performed between the two groups and the patients with different Lung-RADS grades;3T MRI ZTE,HRCT and Lung-RADS grading were compared with the receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve in terms of diagnosis efficacy for pulmonary nodules,and the consistency analysis was carried out.Results No discernible statistical variation was observed in the detection rates of pulmonary nodules between 3T MRI ZTE and HRCT(P>0.05).Lung-RADS grading had the highest rates of missed diagnosis and misdiagnosis,and 3T MRI ZTE and HRCT had similar detection rates.The malignant nodule group was different from the benign nodule group in the 3T MRI ZTE and HRCT signs in terms of lesion size,spiculation sign,lobulation sign,calcifica-tion,pleural indentation sign,cavity sign,boundary and bronchial cut-off sign,with the differences being statistically signi-ficant(all P<0.05).For the patients of Lung-RADS grade 3,the 3T MRI ZTE and HRCT signs had significant differences in terms of lesion size,spiculation sign,lobulation sign,calcification,pleural indentation sign,cavity sign and bronchial cut-off sign(all P<0.05).For the patients of Lung-RADS grade 4A,the 3T MRI ZTE and HRCT signs had significant differen-ces in terms of lesion size,calcification,boundary and bronchial cut-off sign(all P<0.05).For the patients of Lung-RADS grade 4B,the 3T MRI ZTE and HRCT signs had significant differences in terms of lesion size and calcification(all P<0.05).For the patients of Lung-RADS grade 4X,there were no significant differences found between the 3T MRI ZTE and HRCT signs(all P>0.05).HRCT had the highest sensitivity,specificity,accuracy,AUC value,predictive values and Kappa value for benign and malignant nodules,3T MRI ZTE had the values slightly lower than those of HRCT,and Lung-RADS grading had the lowest values when compared with HRCT and 3T MRI ZTE.Conclusion HRCT and 3T MRI ZTE are complementary for the evaluation of pulmonary nodules,and the differences in imaging signs between them show graded dependence.3T MRI ZTE and HRCT have no significant differences in the detection rate of pulmonary nodules,while HRCT gains advanta-ges in differentiating benign and malignant pulmonary nodules,and references are provided for the screening and clinical early diagnosis of pulmonary nodules.[Chinese Medical Equipment Journal,2025,46(9):52-59]
