ObjectiveEndothelial cell dysfunction being the core link. This study explores the molecular mechanism of Danshen Tongluo formula in treating coronary artery disease-dominated panvascular disease with endothelial cell changes as the core through animal experiments and single-cell transcriptome sequencing. MethodsA rat model of coronary artery disease-dominated panvascular disease was established by ligating the left anterior coronary artery. Rats were randomized into a blank group， a model group， and a Danshen Tongluo formula （28 mg·kg^-1·d^-1） group. The efficacy was evaluated by examining the cardiac ultrasound， determination of the plasma level of N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide， and pathological staining. After single-cell sequencing， SingleR package， public datasets， and related literature were used for annotation of the cells. Cell chat was used for intercellular communication and ligand-receptor analysis， and scmetabolism was used for metabolic analysis of endothelial cells. ResultsAnimal experiments showed that Danshen Tongluo formula reduced the N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide （ NT-proBNP ） level （P<0.05）， ameliorated myocardial cell damage and fibrosis， and increase left ventricular ejection fractions （LVEF） in the rat model of heart failure after myocardial infarction（P<0.05）. Single-cell sequencing results showed that Danshen Tongluo formula increased the proportion of arterial endothelial cells， venous endothelial cells， and capillary-arterial endothelial cells， while reducing the proportion of capillary-venous endothelial cells. In addition， this formula increased the interaction intensity of endothelial cells with cardiomyocytes and M1 macrophages and reduced the interaction intensity of endothelial cells with fibroblasts and T cells. Danshen Tongluo formula upregulated CXCL12-CXCR4 signaling in endothelium-B cells and Ptprm-Ptprm signaling in endothelial endothelial cells， while downregulating Mif-（CD74⁺CXCR44） signaling in endothelium-M1 macrophages and Mif-（CD74⁺CD44） signaling in endothelium-M2 macrophages. It reduced the citric acid cycle， oxidative phosphorylation， and glycolysis and increased the glycolysis/oxidative phosphorylation ratio in endothelial cells. GO and KEGG enrichment analysis showed that arterial endothelial cells， venous endothelial cells， and venous capillary endothelial cells can all regulate oxidative phosphorylation， cell adhesion molecules， and tyrosine metabolism. Lymphatic endothelial cells regulate immunity and vascular constriction to participate in the metabolism of various amino acids and fatty acids. ConclusionDanshen Tongluo Formula can ameliorate coronary artery disease-dominated panvascular disease by changing the composition of endothelial cells and regulating the communication between myocardial endothelial cells and non-endothelial cells.

Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy of mitral valve repair technique in the treatment of rheumatic mitral valve lesions. Methods The clinical data of patients diagnosed with rheumatic mitral valve lesions and undergoing mitral valve repair under extracorporeal circulation in our department from 2021 to 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. Results A total of 100 patients were collected, including 78 females and 22 males with an average age of 52 years. There were no secondary open heart or death in the whole group. Extracorporeal circulation time was 136.3±33.1 min, aortic cross-clamping time was 107.6±27.5 min, ventilator use time was 12.9±5.9 h, ICU stay was 2.6±1.4 d, and vasoactive medication use was 823.4±584.4 mg. Before and after the surgery, there were statistical differences in the left ventricular end diastolic diameter, left atrial end systolic diameter, effective mitral valve orifice area, shortening rate of left ventricular short axis, mitral E-peak blood flow velocity, mean mitral transvalvular pressure difference, mitral pressure half-time, and cardiac function graded by New York Heart Association (P＜0.05). While there was no statistical difference in left ventricular ejection fraction or left ventricular end-diastolic volume (P>0.05). Conclusion Overall repair of rheumatic mitral valve lesions can significantly improve the cardiac function and hemodynamics of the patients, and is a good choice for patients with rheumatic mitral valve lesions.

Objective To provide a scientific benchmark for the era of population aging and improve the medical care environment for the elderly in terms of hospital facility accessibility.Methods A random sampling method was used to select 375 individuals from 10 healthcare institutions in a specified city as survey participants from December 2022 to February 2023.A total of 375 questionnaires titled"Comprehensive Rating Scale for Patient Experience in Medical Facilities(Accessibility Category)"were distributed among the participants,with 356 valid responses received and subjected to reliability and validity assessments.The questionnaire included 6 accessibility indicators,each rated from 1 to 10,to evaluate the accessibility level of healthcare fa-cilities.The acquired data was analyzed using the Rank Sum Ratio method and the Four Quadrants model.Results The average score for building accessibility in the city's medical institutions was 35.86,with several indicators at a moderate level,indicating a need for an improvement of the facility accessibility.Meanwhile,the economic operational status of various medical institutions appeared to influence the implementation of accessibility features,which also correlated with local government construction plan-ning,staff awareness of accessible infrastructure,and other factors.Conclusion Medical facilities in cities could implement bar-rier-free modifications in parking,toilets,and other areas,improve the use of accessible AI technology,and develop intelligent medical scenarios in order to meet the challenges of an aging society,improve the medical care quality for the elderly,and reduce social security cost.The governments should accelerate the improvement of supportive policies and regulations and bolster support for the accessibility enhancements.Higher education and research institutions can collaborate with healthcare providers for innova-tive integration of industry academia,research,and application,fostering the conversion of research into practical solutions.

Microbial fuel cells(MFCs)offer a potential solution for sustainable electricity generation by directly converting organic matter in wastewater into electrical energy.However,MFCs face challenges in practical applications,such as low bacterial loading capacity and relatively poor efficiency of extracellular electron transfer(EET)between the anode and the electrochemically active biofilm.In this study,a green and efficient microwave-assisted method combined with high-temperature annealing was successfully employed to prepare iron-based nanoparticle-modified carbon cloth(Fe3C/Fe@CC).This composite material exhibited excellent biocompatibility and electrocatalytic activity.When used as an anode material for MFCs,the Fe3C/Fe@CC-based MFCs demonstrated superior performance,achieving a power density of 2209 mW/m2,which was a 17%increase compared to MFCs with pure carbon cloth anodes(1933 mW/m2).This enhancement was primarily attributed to the effective improvement in EET efficiency between the microbes and the electrode,the increased electrochemically active surface area,and the promotion of the enrichment of the exoelectrogen Geobacter.This study utilized microwave assistance and high-temperature annealing to achieve rapid preparation of highly conductive composite anodes,providing a universal method for the large-scale production of anodes for MFCs.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the risk factors affecting thromboembolism in lymphoma patients with chemotherapy. METHODS: Three hundred and four consecutive lymphoma patients treated by chemotherapy between January 2012 and July 2019 were enrolled and retrospectively analyzed, consisting of 111 patients with thromboembolism and 193 without thromboembolism. Univariate analysis was used to compare the clinical characteristics and related laboratory examination between the patients, while multivariate Logistic regression analysis were used to identify the risk factors affecting thromboembolism in lymphoma patients with chemotherapy. RESULTS: Univariate analysis showed that the female, BMI <18.5 or >24, ≥60 years old, with abnormal platelets before chemotherapy, prolonged single hospitalization days and patients at Ann Arbor stage III and IV could increase the incidence of thromboembolism in lymphoma patients treated by chemotherapy. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that abnormal platelet count before chemotherapy, patients at Ann Arbor stage III and IV, and female were all the independent risk factors affecting thromboembolism in lymphoma patients thromboembolism after chemotherapy (P<0.05). CONCLUSION For lymphoma chemotherapy patients, female, abnormal platelet count before chemotherapy and Ann Arbor stages III and IV show a significantly higher risk for thromboembolism. Thus, preventive anticoagulation therapy is recommended.

Objective:To conduct radiation detection and dose assessment in selective internal radiotherapy with 90Y resin microspheres for the purpose of providing a reference for radiological protection. Methods:The dose rates from radiotherapy with 90Y resin microspheres were detected in the process of each operation at different distances from the body surface of patients the levels of dose to the persons concerned were compared with the relevant national regulations and standards. Results:The estimated dose rates were 1.12-454 μSv/h during 90Y resin microspheres dispensing and 2.06-58.2 μSv/h during surgical procedure. The dose rates at 0.5 h after surgery were 22.7-64.1 μSv/h at 5 cm and 0.82-2.55 μSv/h at 1 m from three patient′s body surface. Assuming treating 200 patients a year, the annual individual effective dose to the radiation workers was 0.12-1.03 mSv/year. The annual individual effective dose to the public, comforters and carers of patients was 0.02-0.24 mSv/year after release of a patient. Conclusions:During the treatment, nursing and release of patients, the radiation doses to workers, carers and the public are lower than the individual dose limit given in the GB18871-2002 basic standards for protection against ionizing radiation and for the safety of radiation sources and the management target value set by of the relevant medical institutions.
