Objective: o develop an onset risk prediction nomogram for patients with homocysteine-type (H-type) hypertension (HTH) based on pulse diagram parameters to assist early clinical prediction and diagnosis of HTH. Methods: Patients diagnosed with essential hypertension and admitted to Shanghai Shuguang Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Shanghai Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine, and Shanghai Hospital of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine from July 6th 2020 to June 16th 2021, and from August 11th 2023 to January 22nd 2024, were enrolled in this retrospective research. The baselines and clinical biochemical indicators of patients were collected. The SMART-I TCM pulse instrument was applied to gather pulse diagram parameters. Multivariate logistic regression was adopted to analyze the risk factors for HTH. RStudio was employed to construct the nomogram model, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, and calibration curve (bootstrap self-sampling 200 times), and clinical decision curve were drawn to evaluate the model’s discrimination and clinical effectiveness. Results: A total of 168 hospitalized patients with essential hypertension were selected and divided into non-HTH group (n = 29) and HTH group (n = 139). Compared with non-HTH group, HTH group had a lower body mass index (BMI), and higher proportions of male patients and drinkers (P < 0.05). The ventricular wall thickening (VWT) could not be determined. The proportions of left common carotid intima-media wall thickness (LCCIMWT) and serum creatinine (SCR) were higher in HTH group (P < 0.05). The pulse diagram parameter As was significantly higher, and H4/H1 and T1/T were lower in HTH group (P < 0.05). Gender, alcohol consumption, serum creatinine, and the pulse diagram parameter H4/H1 were identified as independent risk factors for HTH (P < 0.05). The nomogram’s area under the ROC curve (AUC) was 0.795 [95% confidence interval (CI): (0.706 6, 0.882 8)], with a specificity of 0.724 and sensitivity of 0.799. After 200 times repeated bootstrap self-samplings, the calibration curve showed that the simulated curve fits well with the actual curve (x2 = 9.5002, P = 0.301 9). The clinical decision curve indicated that the nomogram’s applicability was optimal when the threshold for predicting HTH was between 0.38 and 1.00. Conclusion The nomogram model could be valuable for predicting the onset risk of HTH and pulse diagram parameters can facilitate early screening and prevention of HTH.

BACKGROUND:Current treatment strategies for chronic non-healing wounds have shown unsatisfactory results,necessitating the exploration of novel therapeutic approaches.Concentrated growth factors,rich in high-concentration growth factors and possessing a stable natural three-dimensional structure,have demonstrated significant application value in the treatment of chronic non-healing wounds.OBJECTIVE:To review the current status of concentrated growth factor application in chronic non-healing wounds,analyze the shortcomings of concentrated growth factor in clinical applications,and propose constructive suggestions and prospects.METHODS:CNKI,WanFang,and VIP databases were searched with the key words of"concentrated growth factor,platelet concentrate products,chronic wound,chronic ulcer,wound healing,platelet-rich plasma,platelet-rich fibrin"in Chinese.PubMed was searched with the key words of"CGF,concentrated growth factor,platelet concentrate products,chronic wound,chronic ulcer,wound healing,PRP,PRF,platelet-rich plasma,platelet-rich fibrin"in English.The articles published from 2000 to 2024 were searched and further analyzed and summarized after screening.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Concentrated growth factor,with its diverse application forms,high concentration of growth factors,natural three-dimensional structure,compatibility with various material technologies,relatively low cost,and ease of operation,has demonstrated significant clinical value in the treatment of chronic wounds.Numerous researchers have validated its positive effects in chronic wound therapy through clinical applications.However,there is currently no clear consensus on standardized concentrated growth factor application protocols,and certain deficiencies have been revealed in practical applications,including issues with dosage,centrifugation settngs,identification schemes,and preparation methods for different forms of concentrated growth factor.There is substantial room for research on concentrated growth factor,and it is believed that with a clear consensus on its application in the future,concentrated growth factor could play a significant role in clinical practice.

Objective To explore the effect of life reconstruction training on anxiety and depression among individuals with chronic spinal cord injury(SCI)and their caregivers,and to analyze the influencing factors.Methods A total of 216 SCI patients and 79 caregivers who participated in life reconstruction training were recruited from the Hope House for SCI individuals in Shanghai Yangzhi Rehabilitation Hospital from May,2017 to Octo-ber,2019.They were assessed with Self-Rating Anxiety Scale(SAS)and Self-Rating Depression Scale(SDS)be-fore and after intervention.Results After intervention,the scores of SAS and SDS decreased(P<0.05)in both SCI patients and their caregivers.SAS scores were more likely to reduce in SCI patients who suffered anxiety at admission(OR=2.315,95%CI 1.328 to 4.033,P=0.003)and their caregivers(OR=3.632,95%CI 1.270 to 10.390,P=0.016),as well as non-agricultural-registered SCI patients(OR=1.908,95%CI 1.074 to 3.391,P=0.028).Being unmarried,having an injury duration≥21 years,injury due to disease,and having depression at admission significantly promoted the reduction in SDS scores among SCI patients(P<0.05).Caregivers with a junior-high-school education or less were more likely to experience reductions in scores of SAS and SDS compared with those with higher education(P<0.05).Caregivers with five to 15 years of caregiving experience achieved more anxiety reduction(OR=7.155,95%CI 1.806 to 28.342,P=0.005).Conclusion Life reconstruction training is effective on anxiety and depression among individuals with chronic SCI and their caregivers.It is recommended to prioritize anxiety interventions for patients with rural household registra-tion in China,along with depression management for the married/divorced/widowed individuals,with<21 years since injury,and trauma-induced lesions.For caregivers,it is needed to focus to anxiety and depression in better-educated individuals,as well as anxiety in those with either<5 or≥15 years of caregiving experience.

Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) diseases are common clinical conditions. The number of patients with TMJ diseases is large, and the etiology, epidemiology, disease spectrum, and treatment of the disease remain controversial and unknown. To understand and master the current situation of the occurrence, development and prevention of TMJ diseases, as well as to identify the patterns in etiology, incidence, drug sensitivity, and prognosis is crucial for alleviating patients′suffering.This will facilitate in-depth medical research, effective disease prevention measures, and the formulation of corresponding health policies. Cohort construction and research has an irreplaceable role in precise disease prevention and significant improvement in diagnosis and treatment levels. Large-scale cohort studies are needed to explore the relationship between potential risk factors and outcomes of TMJ diseases, and to observe disease prognoses through long-term follw-ups. The consensus aims to establish a standard conceptual frame work for a cohort study on patients with TMJ disease while providing ideas for cohort data standards to this condition. TMJ disease cohort data consists of both common data standards applicable to all specific disease cohorts as well as disease-specific data standards. Common data were available for each specific disease cohort. By integrating different cohort research resources, standard problems or study variables can be unified. Long-term follow-up can be performed using consistent definitions and criteria across different projects for better core data collection. It is hoped that this consensus will be facilitate the development cohort studies of TMJ diseases.

Objective:To construct a safe operation management path based on work chain and extension matter-element model,and to explore its application effect in clinical management of magnetic resonance imaging(MRI)equipment.Methods:The safety risk evaluation indicators was developed from the perspective of MRI equipment work chain at the levels of personnel,equipment,environment and system.The rating of safety characteristic indicators of equipment was carried out and risk control management strategy was formulated by adopting extensible matter element model.The MRI equipment in clinical use in the Imaging Department of Shucheng People's Hospital from January 2019 to December 2021 was selected,and the standard process management mode(referred to as standard process mode)and risk assessment control mode(referred to as risk control mode)were adopted respectively for equipment operation management.The safety risk event control rate,safety operation management standardization and professional capability of staff of MRI equipment under two different management modes were compared.Results:Among 62 safety risk events of MRI equipment managed by risk control mode,the control rates of extremely dangerous,highly dangerous and significant dangerous events were 1.61%(1/62),4.84%(3/62)and 8.06%(5/62),respectively,which were lower than those of the standard process mode,the difference was statistically significant(x2=5.613,4.567,9.241,P<0.05).Among 480 cases of safety operation inspection carried out by risk control mode management,the standardization of patient reception,equipment use,operating environment and management system were 96.25%(462/480),98.96%(475/480),99.17%(476/480)and 97.50%(468/480),respectively,which were higher than those of the standard process mode,the difference was statistically significant(x2=18.631,17.563,7.353,8.789,P<0.05).The annual assessment scores of MRI technicians,nurses and medical engineering engineers of the imaging department adopting risk control mode were(91.87±4.56)points,(94.54±3.27)points and(91.45±4.95)points,respectively,which were higher than those of the standard process mode,the difference was statistically significant(t=3.291,4.277,4.292,P<0.05).Conclusion:The risk control management mode based on work chain and extension matter-element model can comprehensively explore the factors affecting the safe operation of MRI equipment,effectively control the incidence of high-risk events,improve the quality of clinical operation and operation management of MRI equipment.

Objective To investigate the protective effects and underlying mechanisms of sodium butyrate on rats exposed to hypoxia and cold conditions.Methods Fifty-eight male SD rats (aged 7～8 weeks,weighing 240～260 g ) were randomly divided into normoxia normothermia saline control (NNC ) group (n=10),normoxia normothermia sodium butyrate(NNB)group(n=10),hypoxia cold saline control (HCC) group (n=19),and hypoxia cold sodium butyrate (HCB)group (n=19).The intragastric dose of sodium butyrate was 200 mg/kg for the NNB and HCB groups,while the NNC and HCC groups were given normal saline of 5 mL/kg.①After continuous intragastric administration for 7 d,the rats in the HCC and HCB groups were placed in a low-pressure hypoxic chamber to simulate an altitude of 5000 m and exposed to a temperature of 8 ℃ for 7 d.Subsequently,blood samples were collected from the abdominal aorta for blood gas analysis,blood routine test,and detection for serum biochemical indicators.ELISA was used to determine serum inflammatory cytokines and endocrine hormones.The rats in the NNC and NNB groups(n=10)were fed outside the chamber and underwent the same tests in 7 d later to evaluate the protective effects of sodium butyrate on the body.②Core body temperature monitoring was conducted to assess the impact of sodium butyrate on the rmoregulation in rats exposed to hypoxia and cold(n=3).③Hypoxia exercise tolerance of the HCC group and HCB group in a hypoxic chamber (11％O2 )was evaluated for their hypoxia resistance (n=6).Results Compared to the NNC group,the rats in the HCC group exhibited significant decreases in arterial oxygen saturation (SaO2 )and arterial oxygen partial pressure (PaO2 ),serum levels of IL-4,estradiol (E2)and cortisol (F),core temperature,and exercise duration (P<0.05),and had notably increased levels of red blood cell (RBC)count,hemoglobin (HGB),hematocrit (HCT),cardiac troponin (CRDAC-T),uric acid (UA),alanine aminotransferase (ALT),total cholesterol (TC),low-density lipoprotein (LDL),IL-6 and granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF)(P<0.05).Compared to the HCC group,the rats in the HCB group exhibited significant increases in SaO2,PaO2,IL-4,E2,F,corticotropin releasing hormone (CRH)and adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH)(P<0.05),remarkably longer exercise duration under hypoxic exposure (P<0.05 ),but decreases in RBC count,serum levels of HGB,HCT,CRDAC-T,UA,ALT,TC,LDL,IL-6,GM-CSF and free thyroxine (FT4 ),and core temperature (P<0.05).Conclusion Sodium butyrate exhibits protective effects on rats exposed to hypoxia and cold conditions,and it is helpful in their adaptation to these hypoxia and cold environments.

Objective:To develop a Cognitive Assessment Scale for Spinal Cord Injury (SCI) Rehabilitation and conduct reliability and validity tests in community-dwelling patients with SCI.Methods:Based on expectation value theory, social cognition theory, and goal setting theory, a Cognitive Assessment Scale for SCI Rehabilitation was developed through literature review, group discussions, patient trials, and expert verification. From February to December 2021, convenience sampling was used to select 231 community-dwelling patients with SCI as research subjects, including 67 community-dwelling patients with SCI who participated in rehabilitation training at Shanghai Sunshine Rehabilitation Center and 164 patients with SCI in the "Hope Home" WeChat group of Shanghai Sunshine Rehabilitation Center. Research subjects were surveyed using the Cognitive Assessment Scale for SCI Rehabilitation (patient version), 9-item depression scale of Patient Health Questionnaire, 7-item Generalized Anxiety Disorder Scale, EuroQol 5 Dimension-Visual Analogue Scale (EQ-VAS), General Self-Efficacy Scale, and general information questionnaire. SPSS 16.0 software and Amos 21.0 software were used for correlation analysis and reliability and validity testing.Results:The Cognitive Assessment Scale for SCI Rehabilitation (patient version) included two primary dimensions, eight secondary dimensions, and 24 items. The trial showed good results among patients with SCI and their caregivers, and experts generally agreed. Exploratory factor analysis found that the scale were divided into recognition dimension and understanding dimension. Cronbach's α coefficient of the scale was 0.98, the correlation coefficient between each item and its corresponding dimension was 0.75 to 0.88, and our results indicated good test-retest reliability. Correlation analysis showed that patient anxiety and depression scores were negatively correlated with rehabilitation cognitive scores ( P<0.05), and self-efficacy, quality of life were positively correlated with rehabilitation cognitive scores ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:The Cognitive Assessment Scale for SCI Rehabilitation is scientific and feasible, with good reliability and validity, and can be used to evaluate the rehabilitation cognition of community-dwelling patients with SCI.

The lack of preoperative guidelines for the management of drugs for psychiatric disorders will affect the quality of surgical management of psychiatric patients and increase the probability of perioperative complications.To standardize the preoperative management of medications for the treatment of mental disorders,the Perioperative Assessment and Quality Improvement Society issued《Preoperative Management of Medications for Psychiatric Diseases:Society for Perioperative Assessment and Quality Improvement Consensus Statement》in February 2022 to provide clinicians with recommendations for the preoperative management of psychotropic medications.This article interpreted the consensus,summarized the perioperative interactions,special precautions,and auxiliary examination precautions,and provided corresponding preoperative suggestions on antidepressants,mood stabilizers,anxiety,antipsychotics,and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder drugs,to provide a reference for the standardized management of perioperative drugs.
