Objective To construct an evidence-based practice program of discharge preparation services for hip replacement patients based on the best evidence,and to evaluate its clinical effects,aiming to provide references for the implementation of relevant interventions.Methods Knowledge to Action Framework was used as a guide to summarise the best evidence on discharge preparation services for hip replacement patients and to select services based on clinical context.We selected 38 hip replacement patients and 17 healthcare professionals from the De-partment of Orthopaedic Surgery at a tertiary A hospital in Shanghai in September-October 2023 to conduct a baseline review,identify facilitating and hindering factors,and develop a practice protocol.We also selected 38 hip replacement patients and 17 healthcare professionals from November-December 2023 on this ward for evidence-based practice.Nurses'rates of completion of review indicators,levels of knowledge of discharge preparation ser-vices,and discharge planning competencies were compared before and after practice.Patients'readiness for dis-charge,hip function,and unplanned readmissions were also compared before and after the practice.Results After evidence-based practice,nurses'completion rates of review indicators,knowledge of discharge preparation services,and discharge planning competencies were higher than baseline levels(P＜0.05).Hip replacement patients showed a significant improvement in readiness for discharge and hip function(P＜0.001).Conclusion The implementation of an evidence-based practice program of discharge preparation services improves nurses'knowledge and skills,and also contributes to the discharge readiness and hip function of hip replacement patients.

BACKGROUND:With the increasing demand for orthopedic implants,the search for materials with good biocompatibility and degradability has become a research hotspot.Magnesium-lithium-gadolinium(Mg-Li-Gd)alloy has good degradability,biocompatibility,and mechanical properties,providing ideal supporting conditions for fracture healing.OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the effects of Mg-Li-Gd alloy implants on bone healing in rats.METHODS:A circular half-defect model was made on the lateral side of the right mid-femoral segment in 28 SD rats,and the rats were randomly divided into two groups.The stainless steel group was fixed with a stainless steel intramedullary nail,and the magnesium alloy group was fixed with an Mg-Li-Gd alloy intramedullary nail,with 14 rats in each group.At 2,8,and 14 weeks after surgery,right femur X-ray and Micro-CT examinations,as well as hematoxylin-eosin staining,immunohistochemical staining,and western blot assay were performed.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)X-ray film:At 2 weeks after surgery,the osteotomy lines of both groups were clear,the density of the intramedullary nail in the magnesium alloy group was close to that of bone tissue,and the density of the intramedullary nail in the stainless steel group was higher than that of bone tissue.At 8 weeks after surgery,the osteotomy lines of both groups were blurred,and the intramedullary nail in the magnesium alloy group had corroded and degraded.At 14 weeks after surgery,the osteotomy lines of both groups disappeared,and the intramedullary nail in the magnesium alloy group further corroded and degraded.(2)Micro-CT:At 2 weeks after surgery,callus began to form in both groups;8 weeks after surgery,the stainless steel group entered the callus remodeling stage,and a relatively dense bone structure was formed at the bone defect site,and the magnesium alloy group showed obvious callus hyperplasia at the bone defect site.At 14 weeks after surgery,the stainless steel group showed a mature bone remodeling process,and thick cortical bone was formed at the bone defect site,and thinner cortical bone was formed in the magnesium alloy group.(3)Hematoxylin-eosin staining:At 2 weeks after surgery,a large number of osteoblasts,osteocytes,a small number of osteoclasts and trabecular structures were observed in the magnesium alloy group,while relatively few osteoblasts and osteocytes were observed in the stainless steel group.At 8 weeks after surgery,a large number of osteoblasts,osteocytes,and mature trabecular structures were observed in the magnesium alloy group,while a large number of osteocytes and lamellar bones were observed in the stainless steel group.At 14 weeks after surgery,lamellar bones were observed in the magnesium alloy group,while mature bone tissue was observed in the stainless steel group.(4)Immunohistochemical staining and western blot assay:At the same time point,the expression levels of bone morphogenetic protein 2,osteocalcin,and RUNX2 proteins in the magnesium alloy group were higher than those in the stainless steel group.(5)The results showed that compared with stainless steel materials,Mg-Li-Gd alloy had no obvious advantage in promoting the formation of fracture healing structure.

Prescription evaluation is an important innovative medication supervision mode in China,which is an impor-tant means to ensure rational drug use.The Pharmaceutical Specialized Committee of the Chinese Hospital Association had led the formulation of the Pharmacy Administration and Pharmacy Practice in Healthcare Institutions—Part 4-9:Pharmacy Administra-tion—Prescription Evaluation.The standard regulated 11 key elements in the three aspects of basic requirements,evaluation re-quirements,and quality management and evaluation improvement,which can be used as the basis for guiding medical institutions to standardize prescription evaluation work.This paper introduced the formulation process of the prescription evaluation standard and interpreted the key contents of the standard,which was helpful for peers to deeply understand the standard,promote the imple-mentation of the standard,and further improve the quality of prescription evaluation work.

Lens injury is an important etiological factor in the reduction of visual function following ocular trauma.Currently, there are no clear standards for the classification of lens injury, and comprehensive diagnostic tools are lacking.This deficiency leads to numerous controversies and challenges in critical areas, such as diagnosis and preoperative evalution, timing of surgery, surgical strategy, and assessment of postoperative prognosis.Tomographic imaging technology, such as computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, optical coherence tomography, has introduced a new dimension to the evaluation of lens injury, which is crucial for assessing the transparency, texture, location, morphology, and integrity of the lens, as well as the zonules and nearby intraocular structures.However, the use of tomographic imaging technology is somewhat limited due to the limitations of relying on a single method.With the ongoing advancement of imaging technologies and the rapid development of big data and artificial intelligence, tomographic imaging will become an increasingly essential tool in the future management of lens injury.Our expert group reviewed the epidemiological characteristics and classification of lens injury and the major challenges currently faced in the diagnosis and treatment of lens injury, and provided expert recommendations mainly focusing on the application, shortcomings and limitations of current tomographic imaging technology in the diagnosis and treatment of lens injury, and future development directions.

Objective:To analyze the clinical characteristics of pulmonary mucormycosis (PM) in children with leukemia, and explore its diagnosis and treatment strategies and prognosis.Methods:In this case-series study, the clinical data of 19 children who were diagnosed with leukemia complicated by PM at the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from January 2020 to June 2024 were retrospectively analyzed.Their gender, age, type of leukemia, clinical manifestations, chest CT findings, bronchoscopy results, etiology, treatment regimens, and prognosis were summarized.The patients were divided into a survival group and a death group.The clinical data were compared between the 2 groups.Categorical variables were compared using the Fisher′s exact test, and continuous variables were compared using the Wilcoxon rank-sum test.Results:A total of 19 children aged 2 to 17 years with leukemia complicated by PM were involved, including 9 boys and 10 girls, with most cases (15 cases) occurring in the autumn and winter.The median time from the first leukemia chemotherapy to infection with mucor was 1 month.Clinical manifestations mainly included fever (100%), cough (94.7%), hemoptysis (42.1%), and pneumothorax (21.1%).Chest CT findings primarily showed extensive lung consolidation (84.2%), pleural effusion (84.2%), pulmonary nodules (78.9%), halo signs (73.7%), cavitation (36.8%), crescent signs (26.3%), and reverse halo signs (21.1%).Fourteen children underwent bronchoscopy, which primarily revealed tracheal obstruction, pale or congested mucosa, mucosal edema, mucosal necrosis, bronchial stenosis, and bronchial cavitary fistulas.Mucor was detected using various methods including metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS), cultures, and lung tissue microscopy.Patients were mainly treated with intravenous administration of Amphotericin B in different formulations combined with oral Posaconazole.Three patients also underwent surgical resection of the affected lung lobe in addition to medical treatment.After treatment, 14 patients had a good prognosis, while 5 patients died.The causes of death were massive hemoptysis in 2 cases, severe respiratory failure in 1 case, and treatment withdrawn due to critical condition in 2 cases.There were no statistically significant differences in age, gender, type of leukemia, whether to undergo bronchoscopy and surgery, time from the first chemotherapy to onset of infection, presence of comorbid infection, chest CT characteristics, and time to start treatment between survival and death groups(all P>0.05). Conclusions:There is no specificity in clinical manifestations of leukemia complicated by PM, which, however, still exhibits some characteristics.mNGS plays a crucial role in early diagnosis.Intravenous administration of Amphotericin B combined with oral Posaconazole and surgical intervention are an effective treatment regimen.
