[Objective] To evaluate the feasibility of a novel outpatient infusion model for blinatumomab in two acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) patients, aiming to address challenges of poor treatment tolerance, high healthcare costs, and compromised quality of life, thereby providing clinical insights for broader adoption of this approach. [Methods] Two post-allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) patients undergoing blinatumomab maintenance therapy were selected to evaluate the efficacy of the outpatient infusion model. Patient selection criteria, nursing protocols, standardized workflows, and advancements in infusion practices were systematically analyzed combined with a review of global developments in this field. [Results] Both patients completed outpatient blinatumomab infusion without severe adverse events, demonstrating preliminary feasibility and safety of this model. The novel approach enhanced treatment convenience, reduced hospitalization costs, and improved quality of life. [Conclusion] Despite the limited sample size, this pilot study highlights the potential of outpatient blinatumomab administration as a viable alternative to traditional inpatient regimens.

Aim To explore the mechanism of ligustil-ide(LIG)improving demyelination by inhibiting in-flammatory response in mice with distal middle cerebral artery occlusion(dMCAO)through AIM2/caspase-1 signal pathway.Methods Thirty C57BL/6N male mice were randomly divided into three groups:sham operation group(Sham group,n=10),model group(dMCAO group,n=10)and treatment group(LIG group,n=10).The dMCAO mouse model was estab-lished by electrocoagulation in dMCAO group and LIG group.The mice were scored by Longa after waking up,and the changes of cerebral blood flow were moni-tored by laser speckle blood flow imaging system after dMCAO.One hour after modeling,LIG(30 mg·kg-1·d-1)was injected intraperitoneally in LIG group,and the same amount of normal saline was injected in sham group and dMCAO group for one week until the end of the experiment.The mice in each group were stained with TTC,and the brain injury was observed pathologically.Fatigue turning bar test and open field test were used to evaluate the motor function and anxie-ty degree of mice,and then the brain tissues of mice were taken for black gold staining to compare the chan-ges of myelin sheath in each group.Immunofluores-cence staining was used to detect the average fluores-cence intensity of MBP,IBA1 and GFAP in CC,CPU and CX regions of mouse brains.ELISAwas used to de-tect the contents of TNF-α,IL-6,IL-1 β,IL-17A and BDNF in brain tissue proteins of mice.Western blot-ting was used to detect the protein expressions of AIM2,caspase-1 and ASC-in each group.Results Compared with the dMCAO group,the infarct area was reduced,the behavior was significantly improved and the demyelination was reduced in the LIG group.The expression of MBP protein in CC,CPU and CX regions increased(P<0.05),the expression of IBA1 in CX decreased(P<0.01),and the expression of GFAP in-creased in CC,CPU and CX regions(P<0.01).The results of ELISA showed that the levels ofTNF-α(P<0.01),IL-6(P<0.01),IL-1β(P<0.05)and IL-17A(P<0.01)significantly decreased,while the ex-pression of BDNF increased(P<0.05).The protein expression levels of AIM2,caspase-1 and ASC in mouse brain decreased after treatment(P<0.01).Conclusion LIG has a protective effect on demyelina-tion in dMCAO mice,which may be related to the inhi-bition of AIM2/caspase-1 signaling pathway and in-flammation and to the promotion of BDNF secretion.

Functional dyspepsia (FD), characterized by persistent or recurrent dyspeptic symptoms without identifiable organic, systemic or metabolic causes, is an increasingly recognized global health issue. The objective of this guideline is to equip clinicians and nursing professionals with evidence-based strategies for the management and treatment of adult patients with FD using traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). The Guideline Development Group consulted existing TCM consensus documents on FD and convened a panel of 35 clinicians to generate initial clinical queries. To address these queries, a systematic literature search was conducted across PubMed, EMBASE, the Cochrane Library, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), VIP Database, China Biology Medicine (SinoMed) Database, Wanfang Database, Traditional Medicine Research Data Expanded (TMRDE), and the Traditional Chinese Medical Literature Analysis and Retrieval System (TCMLARS). The evidence from the literature was critically appraised using the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation (GRADE) approach. The strength of the recommendations was ascertained through a consensus-building process involving TCM and allopathic medicine experts, methodologists, pharmacologists, nursing specialists, and health economists, leveraging their collective expertise and empirical knowledge. The guideline comprises a total of 43 evidence-informed recommendations that span a range of clinical aspects, including the pathogenesis according to TCM, diagnostic approaches, therapeutic interventions, efficacy assessments, and prognostic considerations.

Objective:To explore the relationship between mechanical ventilation based on volumetric guaranteed(VG)ventilation mode and weaning outcomes of neonatal respiratory distress syndrome(RDS).Methods:This study was a single-center prospective study,according to random number table method,129 neonatal with RDS who were admitted to our hospital from January 2022 to October 2024 were divided into control group(received pressure-controlled ventilation,n=64)and observation group(received pressure-controlled ventilation combined with VG,n=65).The duration of invasive ventilation,total duration of respiratory support,length of hospital stay,arterial blood gas parameters[partial pressure of carbon dioxide(PaCO2),pH value,partial pressure of oxygen(PaO2),PaO2/fraction of inspired oxygen(FiO2)],weaning time,extubation failure rate and incidence of complications were compared between the two groups.Results:The duration of invasive ventilation,the total duration of respiratory support,the weaning time and the length of hospital stay in the observation group were shorter than those in the control group,and the extubation failure rate and the incidence of complications were lower than those in the control group(P<0.05).24 h,48 h after intervention,PaCO2 decreased,while pH value,PaO2 and PaO2/FiO2 increased.The PaCO2 in the observation group was lower than that in the control group,while the pH value,PaO2 and PaO2/FiO2 were higher than those in the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion:Mechanical ventilation based on VG can shorten the mechanical ventilation time of neonatal with RDS,improve blood gas analysis indicators,and reduce weaning time,extubation failure rate and the risk of complications.
