Objective:To implement evidence-based practice for eye management in ICU patients undergoing prone position ventilation and evaluate the effectiveness of applying the best evidence for eye management in this setting.Methods:Through literature retrieval, screening, and evaluation, the best evidence for eye management in ICU patients undergoing prone position ventilation was summarized and compiled into evidence review indicators. From March to June 2024, convenience sampling was used to select 29 ICU prone position ventilation patients and 30 ICU nurses at Shanghai Changzheng Hospital for baseline review to identify obstacles in clinical practice of evidence and develop action strategies based on these obstacles. From July to October 2024, 29 ICU prone position ventilation patients and 29 ICU nurses were selected for evidence-based practice to compare the implementation rates of review indicators before and after evidence-based practice, ICU nurses' knowledge, attitude and practice regarding eye management for prone position ventilation patients, as well as the intraocular pressure during prone position ventilation and the incidence of eye complications within the first week of ICU admission.Results:After evidence-based practice, the implementation rates of all 16 review indicators by ICU nurses were higher than those before evidence-based practice, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). The total score, knowledge dimension score, and practice dimension score on the Knowledge, Attitude and Practice Questionnaire on Eye Management during Prone Position Ventilation for ICU nurses were higher than those before evidence-based practice, with statistically significant differences ( P<0.05). After evidence-based practice, the intraocular pressure of ICU patients in prone position ventilation for 8 hours and at the end improved, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). The overall incidence of eye complications within one week of ICU admission decreased from 27.6% to 6.9%, with a statistically significant difference ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:Implementing evidence-based practices for eye management in ICU patients undergoing prone position ventilation can effectively increase nurses' implementation rates of review indicators, enhance their knowledge, attitude, and practice regarding eye management, and reduce the incidence of eye complications in patients.

AIM:This study aims to investigate the role of histone methyltransferase SET and MYND domain containing 2(SMYD2)in facilitating renal fibrosis through the macrophage-myofibroblast transition in diabetic kidney dis-ease(DKD).METHODS:(1)C57BL/6J mice were intraperitoneally administered 55 mg/kg of streptozotocin to induce diabetes mellitus(DM).The experimental groups were categorized as follows:normal control,DM(20 weeks),DM(28 weeks),and DM(36 weeks).Blood glucose(BG),serum creatinine(SCr)and blood urea nitrogen(BUN)levels were determined using a biochemical analyzer.Hematoxylin-eosin(HE)staining and Masson staining were performed to assess morphological and fibrotic changes in renal tissues.Western blot analysis was used to measure the protein levels of SMYD2,histone H3 lysine 4 trimethylation(H3K4me3),arginase-1,matrix metalloproteinase 9(MMP9),collagen type Ⅰ(Col Ⅰ)and α-smooth muscle actin(α-SMA).Immunofluorescence staining was conducted to examine the localization and expression of F4/80,α-SMA,SMYD2,CD86,CD206 and CD163.(2)Mouse monocyte/macrophage RAW264.7 cells were cultured in vitro and assigned to groups as follows:normal glucose(NG)+negative control siRNA(siNC),high glucose(HG)+siNC,NG+SMYD2 siRNA(siSMYD2),and HG+siSMYD2.Western blot analysis was used to assess the expression of relevant proteins.RESULTS:(1)Compared with normal control group,the levels of BG,SCr and BUN were significantly elevated in DM(28 weeks)and DM(36 weeks)groups(P＜0.05).Renal tissue exhibited tubular atro-phy,dilation,and collagen fiber deposition.The levels of H3K4me3,arginase-1,MMP9,Col Ⅰ and α-SMA proteins were up-regulated(P＜0.05).The CD86,CD206,CD163 and F4/80 were primarily localized in the interstitial macrophages of the renal tubules,α-SMA was predominantly detected in the renal interstitium,and SMYD2 was mainly expressed in renal tubular epithelial cells and the renal interstitium.(2)Compared with NG+siNC group,the protein levels of SMYD2,H3K4me3,arginase-1,CD163,Col Ⅰ,α-SMA,transforming growth factor-β1(TGF-β1)and p-Smad3 in the cells of HG+siNC group were significantly increased(P＜0.05).Knockdown of SMYD2 resulted in a reduction of these indicators(P＜0.05).CONCLUSION:The SMYD2 protein appears to facilitate renal fibrosis in DKD by promoting the macrophage-myofibroblast transition,potentially through the modulation of TGF-β1/Smad3 signaling pathway.
