Objective The present study conducted a comprehensive literature review and visualization analysis of both domestic and international research on the utilization of hemodialysis water over the past two decades,aiming to gain insights into the current research status,identify prominent areas of interest,and highlight future development trends in this field,thereby of-fering valuable references for subsequent studies.Methods By employing bibliometric analysis,the relevant literature on hemo-dialysis water usage was retrieved from the Web of Science Core Collection(WoSCC)database and China National Knowledge Network(CNKI)for the period between 2004 and 2024.Subsequently,an in-depth examination of countries,research institu-tions,authors,and keywords associated with these publications was conducted.The visualization map was generated using CiteSpace 6.2.R4 software.Results A total of 3 304 papers were included,with 147 in Chinese and 3 157 in English.Over the past two decades,there has been a consistent upward trend in the number of publications both domestically and international-ly,although the growth rate of domestic literature lags behind that of foreign countries.The United States,China,and Japan rank as the top three countries in terms of publication volume,with the United States exhibiting the highest centrality.Foreign coun-tries tend to form small research groups with close institutional collaborations,while domestic research teams and institutions are relatively dispersed.Currently,foreign research primarily focuses on Fabrication,Ultrafiltration Membranes and Performance;meanwhile,domestic research emphasizes infection control,quality control,and daily maintenance.Conclusion From 2004 to 2024,both domestic and international researchers have consistently focused on water research for hemodialysis.However,China lags behind foreign countries in this field,necessitating enhanced collaboration among nations,institutions,and regions to broad-en the scope and depth of domestic research.

Objective:To construct a competency evaluation indicator system for infection prevention and control nurses in Operating Rooms (hereinafter referred to as "IPC") and provide an objective basis for the management of IPC nurses.Methods:From June to November 2022, an initial competency evaluation indicator system for IPC nurses was developed through literature review and semi-structured interviews. The Delphi method was employed to consult 20 experts from 11 provinces and municipalities across the country. Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) and mean distribution method were applied to quantify and determine the weight of each level of indicators within the system.Results:Nineteen experts were finally included, with two rounds of questionnaire recovery rates of 95.00% (19/20) and 100.00% (19/19), respectively. The authority coefficients of the experts were 0.858 and 0.861, familiarity coefficients were 0.850 and 0.853, and coefficients of judgment basis were 0.865 and 0.868, respectively. The Kendall's W coefficient of concordance for the two rounds of inquiries were 0.139 and 0.202 ( P<0.05), respectively. The final IPC nurse competency evaluation indicator system included six primary indicators, 22 secondary indicators, and 66 tertiary indicators. Conclusions:The constructed IPC nurse competency evaluation indicator system is scientific, reasonable, objective, and comprehensive, providing a valuable reference for the capability training, assessment, entry standards, and qualification certification of IPC nurses.

Objective:To evaluate the relationship between breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP)-blood brain barrier (BBB) and dexmedetomidine-induced improvement in postoperative cognitive function in patients with mild hyperbilirubinemia.Methods:This was a prospective study. Ninety patients of both sexes with mild hyperbilirubinemia caused by choledocholithiasis, aged 55-69 yr, with body mass index of 22-28 kg/m 2, of American Society of Anesthesiologists Physical Status classification Ⅱ or Ⅲ, with preoperative Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) scores≥20, scheduled for elective cholecystectomy, exploratory choledocholithotomy and T-tube drainage from December 2022 to August 2023 in the Third Central Hospital of Tianjin, were divided into 2 groups( n=45 each) using a random number table method: control group (C group) and dexmedetomindine group (D group). After induction of anesthesia, dexmedetomidine was intravenously infused at a loading dose of 0.5 μg/kg over 10 min, followed by an infusion of 0.6 μg·kg -1·h -1 until the end of operation in group D, and the equal volume of normal saline was given instead in group C. At 2 days before operation and 1, 3, 5, 7 and 14 days after operation, the cognitive function was assessed using MMSE and Montreal Cognitive Assessment, and the serum BCRP concentration, concentrations of cognitive function serological indicators (serum S100β, β amyloid 42, malondialdehyde), and concentrations of BBB serological indicators (serum glial fibrillary acidic protein, thrombospondin 1, claudin 5) were determined using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Results:Compared with group C, MMSE and Montreal Cognitive Assessment scores were significantly increased, the incidence of cognitive impairment was decreased, the serum concentrations of S100β, β amyloid 42 and malondialdehyde were decreased, the serum concentrations of BCRP were increased, and the serum concentrations of glial fibrillary acidic protein, claudin-5 and thrombospondin 1 were decreased in group D ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The mechanism by which dexmedetomidine improves postoperative cognitive function may be related to up-regulating BCRP levels and improving BBB function in patients with mild hyperbilirubinemia.

Objective:To explore the application effect of immersive experiential teaching strategies in the teaching of clinical anesthesiology for undergraduates.Methods:Undergraduates majoring in 5-year clinical medicine in Air Force Medical University from January 2022 to May 2022 were enrolled as the research objects. Students were randomly divided into the immersive teaching group and the traditional teaching group, with 35 students in each. Students in the immersive teaching group underwent immersive experiential teaching strategies and the traditional teaching group received lecture-based teaching strategies. After classes, all students in these two groups took the same theoretical and operational examination, and conducted a teaching satisfaction survey and a comprehensive ability evaluation. The results were analyzed by t-test and Chi-square test using SPSS 22.0 software. Results:Students in the immersive teaching group were more satisfied with teaching (88.32±7.28 vs.70.15±7.11) ( P=0.001), and had higher scores of theorical examination (86.34±7.42 vs. 77.31±5.32) ( P=0.020) and operational examination (92.23±5.33 vs. 81.21±4.98) ( P=0.022) than those in the traditional teaching group. In addition, the scores of communication ability ( P=0.026), response ability ( P<0.001) adaptability ( P=0.007), and critical thinking ( P<0.001) in the immersive teaching group were higher than those in the traditional teaching group. Conclusion:The immersive experiential teaching strategies can effectively improve the theoretical and practical operational ability of undergraduates after completing courses of clinical anesthesiology, and can effectively stimulate the enthusiasm of students. It is worthy to be popularized in subsequent teaching abilities.

Objective:To investigate the changes of thickness and area of the ligamentum flavum after lateral lumbar interbody fusion (LLIF) for lumbar degenerative diseases.Methods:From 2019 to 2021, a total of 54 patients with lumbar degenerative diseases who underwent LLIF combined with percutaneous pedicle screw internal fixation were retrospectively analyzed. There were 9 males and 45 females, aged 59.46±6.91 years (range, 45-76 years), followed up for 14.69±6.87 months (range, 12-33 months). The disc height (DH), midsagittal canal diameter (CD), dural sac axial cross-sectional area (DCSA), ligamentum flavum area (LFA) and ligamentum flavum thickness (LFT) before and after surgery and at the last follow-up were evaluated and compared. Pearson correlation analysis was used to assess the relationship between the amount of change in the DCSA and LFA in the immediate postoperative period and at the last follow-up, as well as the correlation between the two and the amount of change in the DH. The data of patients at the last follow-up of 12 months after operation were extracted. Pearson correlation was used to evaluate the changes in DCSA and LFA at the last follow-up and the visual analogue scale (VAS) of low back pain and leg pain and Oswestry disability index (ODI) at 1 year after surgery.Results:All patients were followed up for 14.69±6.87 months (range, 12-33 months). The differences in DH ( F=354.93, P<0.001), sagittal CD ( F=44.78, P<0.001) and DCSA ( F=130.97, P<0.001) before, immediately after surgery and at the last follow-up were statistically significant. The DH, sagittal CD, and DCSA immediate after surgery and last follow-up were higher than those before surgery ( P<0.05). The differences in LFA ( F=51.59, P<0.001) and bilateral LFT ( F=53.49, P<0.001; F=50.53, P<0.001) before and after surgery and at the last follow-up were statistically significant, and both LFA and bilateral LFT at immediate after surgery and last follow-up were smaller than those before surgery ( P<0.05). Pearson correlation analysis showed that the change of DH immediately after surgery was moderately correlated with the change of DCSA ( r=0.57, P<0.001), and was strongly correlated with the change of LFA ( r=0.65, P<0.001). The change of DH at the last follow-up was moderately correlated with the change of DCSA ( r=0.43, P<0.001), and was weakly correlated with the change of LFA ( r=0.25, P=0.042). The differences in VAS-leg ( F=199.51, P<0.001), VAS-low back ( F=233.90, P<0.001), and ODI ( F=199.17, P<0.001) were statistically significant in patients before operation, 3 months after operation and 12 months after operation. There was no correlation between the changes of DCSA and LFA at the last follow-up and the changes of VAS and ODI at 1 year after operation ( P>0.05). Conclusion:LFA and LFT decrease and DCSA increase in patients with lumbar degenerative diseases after LLIF. LFA and LFT gradually decrease with time, and VAS and ODI are significantly improved compared with those before surgery. The DH loss caused by a certain degree of cage subsidence after surgery does not affect the clinical efficacy. There is no correlation between the improvement of DCSA and LFA and the improvement of clinical symptoms.

Objective:To identify the risk factors for postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) and develop the prediction model in elderly patients undergoing lumbar surgery under general anesthesia.Methods:The elderly patients undergoing elective lumbar surgery under general anesthesia in our hospital from July 2021 to July 2022 were enrolled. Cognitive function was assessed at 7 days after surgery using Mini-Mental State Examination and Montreal Cognitive Assessment. When the decrease in both scales≥ 1 standard deviation, the patients were considered as having POCD. The patients were divided into POCD group and non-POCD group according to whether POCD developed. The propensity score matching was used to balance the confounding bias between two groups. The multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to identify the risk factors for POCD. The prediction model was constructed, and a nomogram was drawn for visualization of the model. The receiver operating characteristic curve, calibration plot and decision curve analysis (DCA) were drawn to evaluate the differentiation, consistency and clinical validity of the model, respectively.Results:A total of 159 patients were enrolled in this study, and the incidence of POCD was 31.4%. There were statistically significant differences in the ratio of intraoperative blood transfusion, cumulative time of hypotension, total infusion volume and operation time between two groups ( n=32 each) after propensity score matching ( P<0.05). The results of multivariate logistic regression showed that age, educational levels, diabetes mellitus, previous two or more operations under general anesthesia, APTT and cumulative time of hypotension were independent risk factors for POCD in elderly patients undergoing lumbar surgery under general anesthesia ( P<0.05). A model was developed based on the risk factors mentioned above: LogitP=-15.878+ 0.263 × Age (years) - 0.122 × Educational Level (years)+ 1.601 × Diabetes Mellitus+ 1.468 × History of General Anesthesia for 2 or more times+ 0.608 × Cumulative Time of Hypotension(min) - 0.140 × APTT (s). The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve was 0.930 (95% CI 0.887-0.973), the sensitivity was 0.920, specificity was 0.798 and Youden index was 0.718. After visualizing the model via nomogram, the model was verified by Hosmer-Lemeshow test, P=0.403, C index was 0.930, and corrected C index was 0.914. Conclusions:Age, educational levels, diabetes mellitus, previous multiple operations under general anesthesia, APTT and cumulative time of hypotension are independent risk factors for POCD in elderly patients undergoing lumbar surgery under general anesthesia, and the established risk prediction model can effectively predict the occurrence of POCD in elderly patients undergoing lumbar surgery under general anesthesia.

Oxidative stress injury and mitochondrial dysfunction are major obstacles to neurological functional recovery after ischemic stroke. The development of new approaches to simultaneously diminish oxidative stress and resist mitochondrial dysfunction is urgently needed. Inspired by the overproduced reactive oxygen species (ROS) at ischemic neuron mitochondria, multifunctional nanoparticles with ROS-responsiveness and mitochondrial-targeted (SPNPs) were engineered, achieving specific targeting delivery and controllable drug release at ischemic penumbra. Due to the nose-to-brain pathway, SPNPs which were encapsulated in a thermo-sensitive gel by intranasal administration were directly delivered to the ischemic penumbra bypassing the blood‒brain barrier (BBB) and enhancing delivery efficiency. The potential of SPNPs for ischemic stroke treatment was systematically evaluated in vitro and in rat models of middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO). Results demonstrated the mitochondrial-targeted and protective effects of SPNPs on H₂O₂-induced oxidative damage in SH-SY5Y cells. In vivo distribution analyzed by fluorescence imaging proved the rapid and enhanced active targeting of SPNPs to the ischemic area in MCAO rats. SPNPs by intranasal administration exhibited superior therapeutic efficacy by alleviating oxidative stress, diminishing inflammation, repairing mitochondrial function, and decreasing apoptosis. This strategy provided a multifunctional delivery system for the effective treatment of ischemic injury, which also implies a potential application prospect for other central nervous diseases.

Objective:To prepare and preliminary verify dezocine polylactic acid-glycolic acid block copolymer (PLGA) microspheres.Methods:Preparation of dezocine PLGA microspheres Dezocine 120 mg, PLGA 0.1 g and the solubilizing additive poloxamer 0.1 g were dispersed in tetrahydrofuran solvent to form an organic phase solution. Sodium chloride and polyethylene glycol were dissolved in water for injection to form an inner aqueous phase solution and an outer aqueous phase solution. After the organic phase solution 20 ml was mixed with the inner aqueous phase solution 20 ml to form a water/oil colostrum, the water/oil colostrum was added to the outer aqueous phase solution to form a water/oil/water multiple emulsion, which was fully mixed with lyophilized powder protective agent and freeze-dried to prepare dezocine PLGA microspheres. Verification Eighteen clean-grade healthy male Sprague-Dawley rats, aged 10-12 weeks, weighing 220-260 g, were divided into 3 groups ( n=6 each) by a random number table method: control group (group C), dezocine ordinary preparation group (group D 1) and dezocine PLGA microspheres group (group D 2). Normal saline, dezocine injectio (dose 1 mg) and dezocine PLGA microsphere injectio (dose 0.2 μg) 0.2 ml were intramuscularly injected in C, D 1 and D 2 groups, respectively. The concentrations of dezocine in plasma were measured at 30 min and 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8 h after administration, and thermal paw withdrawal latency was measured at T 1-T 3, T 5 and T 9. Tissues from the injection site were obtained on day 7 after intramuscular injection, and the inflammatory response was observed after HE staining. Results:Compared with group C, the thermal paw withdrawal latency was significantly prolonged at T 1-T 3 in group D 1 and at T 1-T 3, T 5 and T 9 in group D 2 ( P<0.05). Compared with group D 1, the thermal paw withdrawal latency was significantly prolonged at T 5 and T 9, and the plasma concentrations of dezocine were increased at T 6-T 9 in group D 2 ( P<0.05). Compared with the values at T 2, the plasma concentrations of dezocine were significantly decreased at T 4-T 9 in group D 1 ( P<0.05), and no significant change was found in the plasma concentrations of dezocine at T 3-T 9 in group D 2 ( P>0.05). On 7 days after injection, no inflammation was found in the local tissues in C, D 1 and D 2 groups, and no significant difference was found among the three groups. Conclusions:The sustained-release formulation of dezocine PLGA microspheres is successfully prepared, and it can maintain stable blood concentrations, effectively prolongs the action time of the drug and has significant sustained-release effect in rats.
