Objective: To explore the risk factors of allogeneic blood transfusion during lung transplant surgery and prognostic effects of transfusion by analyzing the basic data, surgical details, laboratory tests results, and intraoperative blood transfusion details during the perioperative period of lung transplant, so as to guide clinical blood use. Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on the data of 319 patients who underwent lung transplantation surgery in our hospital from January 2022 to December 2023. The patients were divided into a non-transfusion group (n=70) and a transfusion group (n=249) based on their intraoperative blood transfusion status. The clinical data, surgical details, perioperative laboratory results and other relevant preoperative and postoperative parameters were compared between the two groups, and the postoperative prognosis (improvement, non-recovery, and death) was analyzed. Results: After comparison between the two groups of patients, it was found that the non-transfusion group had higher levels of preoperative Hb (g/L)(144.41±17.66 vs 129.78±20.44), preoperative Hct [43.25(40.23, 47.5) vs 40.7(37, 43.55)], preoperative TBIL (μmol/L)[11.45(9.15, 15.3)vs 9.9(6.88, 13.33)], and postoperative PLT (×10 /L)(167.74±64.43 vs 132.37±54.84) than the transfusion group (all P<0.05). The non-transfusion group had lower levels of preoperative pCO (mmHg)[41.4(37.4, 45.8)vs 45.3(40, 52.48)], postoperative TBIL (μmol/L)[25.45(17.68, 33.95)vs 30.8(21.55, 43.05)], postoperative pH (7.41±0.09 vs 7.45±0.10), bilateral lung transplantation [27(38.6%) vs 157(63.1%)], surgical duration (h) [5(4, 7)vs 6.5(5, 8)], use of ECMO [52(74.3%) vs 232(93.2%)], and intraoperative blood loss (mL)[600(500, 800)vs 1 000(800, 1 500)] compared to the transfusion group (all P<0.05). The items with P<0.1 in the compared indicators were included in the binary logistic regression analysis, and the results showed that bilateral lung transplantation, intraoperative blood loss, preoperative TBIL, postoperative PLT, postoperative TBIL, preoperative pCO2, and postoperative pH were significantly correlated with whether blood transfusion was performed (P<0.05). The P values of the Chi-square test for postoperative improvement and mortality in the non transfusion group and transfusion group were both greater than 0.05, indicating no statistically significant difference in the prognosis rate between the two groups of patients. Conclusion: Bilateral lung transplantation, intraoperative blood loss, preoperative TBIL, and preoperative pCO are risk factors for blood transfusion during lung transplantation. Intraoperative blood transfusion has a significant impact on postoperative PLT, postoperative TBIL, and postoperative pH indicators, but has no significant effect on prognosis. A comprehensive evaluation of laboratory indicators and surgical details can help developing blood transfusion strategies more effectively.

Objective To analyze the correlation between serum soluble Klotho protein(sKL)and tendino-C(TN-C)and the severity of disease and oxidative stress in children with immunoglobulin A(IgA)nephropa-thy.Methods A total of 85 children with IgA nephropathy admitted to the hospital from July 2019 to August 2022 were selected as IgA nephropathy group,and 85 healthy patients who underwent physical examination in the hospital during the same period were selected as healthy group.Serum sKL and TN-C levels were com-pared between the two groups.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was drawn to analyze the value of serum sKL,TN-C and their combination in predicting the occurrence of IgA nephropathy.IgA nephropathy group was divided into mild group(28 cases),moderate group(39 cases)and severe group(18 cases)accord-ing to 24 h urinary protein quantity.Serum sKL,TN-C levels and oxidative stress indexes[malondialdehyde(MDA),superoxide dismutase(SOD)and advanced oxidation protein product(AOPP)]of the three groups were compared.The correlation between serum sKL and TN-C levels and oxidative stress indexes was ana-lyzed by Spearman correlation,and the correlation between serum sKL and TN-C levels and the severity of IgA nephropathy in children was examined by Kendall's Tau-b.Results The serum sKL level in IgA ne-phropathy group was lower than that in healthy group,and the serum TN-C level was higher than that in healthy group,the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).ROC curve showed that the area under the curve and 95％CI of serum sKL,TNC and their combination predicted the occurrence of IgA nephropathy were 0.726(95％CI:0.648-0.803),0.853(95％CI:0.796-0.909)and 0.891(95％CI:0.845-0.937).The level of serum sKL in severe group was lower than that in moderate and mild groups,while the level of serum TN-C was higher than that in moderate and mild groups,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).The serum SOD level of severe group was lower than that of moderate group and mild group,and the serum AOPP and MDA levels were higher than those of moderate group and mild group,the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).Spearman correlation showed that sKL level was positively correlated with SOD(r＞0,P＜0.05),and negatively correlated with AOPP and MDA(r＜0,P＜0.05).TN-C level was negatively correlated with SOD(r＜0,P＜0.05),and positively correlated with AOPP and MDA(r＞0,P＜0.05).Conclusion The levels of serum sKL and TN-C in children with IgA nephropathy are related to the severity of disease and oxidative stress,and the combination of SKL and TN-C can effectively predict the occurrence of IgA nephropathy.

Objectives:To analyze the consistency of evaluating left ventricular hemodynamics (HDF) based on single plane and multi plane cine sequences of magnetic resonance mitral valve orifice.Methods:A prospective study was conducted on 48 healthy adults, and two methods were used to measure the mitral valve diameter and calculate HDF parameters. The first method was to measure the diameter of the mitral valve opening in the left ventricular three chamber cine sequence; The second method is to measure the mitral valve diameter using cine sequences of two chamber, three chamber, and four chamber hearts, and then take the average value. Paired t-tests were used to compare the differences in HDF measured by two methods, and Pearson correlation coefficient ( r), intra group correlation coefficient ( ICC), and Bland-Altman analysis were used to test the consistency and reproducibility of the two methods. Results:The root mean square (RMS) of longitudinal HDF calculated using single plane and multi plane mitral valve diameters were [(17.28±4.41)% vs (17.21±4.61)%] ( P=0.379) for the entire cardiac cycle, [(21.45±5.54)% vs (21.49±5.68)%] ( P=0.646) for systolic phase, and [(12.78±4.10)% vs (12.54±4.24)%] ( P=0.106) for diastolic phase, respectively. The difference in the calculation results of HDF parameters related to ventricular function was not statistically significant (all P>0.05), and there was good consistency ( r=0.924-0.996, ICC=0.924-0.995). The two HDF parameters related to atrial function were sensitive to the measurement method of mitral valve orifice diameter [RMS of longitudinal HDF during active atrial emptying: (3.26±1.51)% vs (3.32±1.55)%, P=0.006; longitudinal HDF pulse during active atrial emptying: (-2.60±1.28)% vs (-2.76±1.30)%, P<0.001]. Conclusions:The ventricular function related HDF parameters obtained from the analysis of mitral valve orifice diameter using single plane and multi plane methods have good consistency, and can be evaluated using relatively simple single plane methods for left ventricular HDF.

Objective To explore the effects of prucalopride(PRUC)on the intestinal function during the perioperative period of robot-assisted laparoscopic radical cystectomy(RARC)and urinary diversion.Methods A total of 75 patients undertaking RARC with urinary diversion(orthotopic neobladder or ileal bladder)in Nanjing Drum Hospital during Jan.and Dec.2021 were divided into PRUC group(n=28)and control group(n=47)according to whether they took PRUC or not.Postoperative intestinal ventilation time and defecation time,drainage tube retention time,tolerance time for first intake of semi-flow food,postoperative hospital stay,and incidence of complications were observed and recorded in the two groups.Postoperative C-reactive protein(CRP)and neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio(NLR)were compared.Results The PRUC group had shorter intestinal ventilation time and defecation time[(47.14±16.31)h vs.(74.04±35.33)h,P＜0.01;(86.14±30.47)h vs.(123.57±79.12)h,P=0.02],smaller change of ΔCRP and ΔNLR[(79.99±29.71)mg/L vs.(127.75±56.98)mg/L;(9.24±6.43)vs.(16.11±9.90),P＜0.01].All complications were minor,the incidence of intestinal obstruction in PRUC group tended to decrease within 90 days after operation(P=0.38),and there was no significant difference in other complications between the two groups(P＞0.05).Conclusion The perioperative use of PRUC in RARC with urinary diversion is safe and effective,which can promote the recovery of intestinal function after operation.

Objective:To analyze the electroencephalogram (EEG) features of patients with Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and mild cognitive impairment (MCI), and to combine the characteristics for classification and prediction.Methods:One hundred and thirty-five patients attending the Department of Neurology at the General Hospital of Tianjin Medical University were enrolled, including 34 patients with AD, 67 patients with MCI, and 34 healthy control (HC). The electroencephalogram signals of these patients in the resting state were collected and preprocessed. Relative power spectral density features and sample entropy features on a multi-band scale were extracted to compare the whole-brain differences in electroencephalogram features among the 3 groups of subjects, and then subdivided into brain regions and individual leads for in-depth analysis. The above two features were fused to classify and predict AD, MCI, and HC by support vector machine (SVM).Results:The frontal regions had higher δ relative power spectral densities than the other regions, and the occipital and temporal regions showed relatively lower distributions. θ-Band relative power spectral densities had a more even distribution of sizes across brain regions. α-Band relative power spectral densities were concentrated in the occipital lobe, while β-band relative power spectral densities were mainly concentrated in the parietal and temporal lobes. Except for the central lobe, the δ-band relative power spectral densities of the AD group were higher than those of the MCI group ( P < 0.05) and HC group ( P < 0.01) in all brain regions and the whole brain. θ-band relative power spectral densities of the AD group were higher than those of the MCI gourp ( P < 0.001) and HC group ( P < 0.001) in the whole brain and in all brain regions. α-Band relative power spectral densities of the AD group were lower than those of the other groups only in the temporal lobe (all P < 0.05). The relative power spectral density of the β-band in the AD group was higher than that of the other groups in the whole brain and in all brain regions ( P < 0.05, 0.01, 0.001). The difference in the relative power spectral density of the δ-band in the C3 lead in the central lobe of the AD and HC groups was statistically significant ( P < 0.05). The relative power spectral density of the γ-band in the temporal lobe was higher than that in the other regions of the AD group, the MCI group, and the HC group. The relative power spectral density of the γ-band in the T3 lead in the AD group was significantly lower than that in the T4 lead. The average entropy of samples in the whole brain and in each brain region was lower than that in the HC group in the AD and MCI groups (all P < 0.05). The entropy of the samples at lead C3 in the AD group was lower than that in the MCI group ( P < 0.05). The differences between the relative power spectral density, sample entropy, and the actual data classification evaluation indexes (accuracy rate, precision rate, recall rate, and F1 score) that fused the two features, and the rearranged data were all statistically significant (all P < 0.001). When the relative power spectral density feature and the sample entropy feature were fused in the classification features, the best classification prediction was achieved, with an accuracy rate of 80%, a precision rate of 78%, a recall rate of 78%, and the F1 score of 79%. Conclusions:Relative power spectral density and sample entropy analysis can reveal the abnormalities of electroencephalogram activities of AD and MCI patients from different perspectives (linear and nonlinear), and the combination of these two features in classification prediction can improve the classification effect.

Objective To investigate the value of iterative decomposition of water and fat with echo asymmetry and least-squares(IDEAL-IQ)sequence in evaluating the correlation between renal ectopic fat deposition and early diabetic kidney disease(DKD)in patients with diabetes mellitus(DM).Methods A total of 51 patients with T1DM or T2DM were enrolled in this study from the Endocrinology and Metabolism Department in Affiliated Jinhua Hospital,Zhejiang University School of Medicine during January 2022 to July 2023.All the patients were divided into two groups according to the results of urine albumin creatinine ratio(UACR):normal or slightly increased urinary micro albumin group(NAU,UACR<30 mg/g,n=27)and diabetic kidney disease group(DKD,UACR 30～300 mg/g,n=24).Meanwhile,55 healthy subjects in health examination were selected as control group(NC).Pearson correlation analysis was used to analyze the correlation between renal FF and other indicators.Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the influencing factors of early DKD,and the diagnostic efficiency of renal FF for early DKD was analyzed by the ROC curve.Results Serum creatinine(Scr)and renal fat fraction(FF)value were higher in DKD group than in NC and NAU groups(P<0.05).Pearson correlation analysis showed that kidney FF were positively correlated with UACR and Hcy(P<0.05).Logistic regression analysis showed that after adjusting for confounding factors,renal FF was a contributing factor to early DKD.The ROC curve revealed that model 2 had the highest diagnostic efficiency,with AUC=0.801,sensitivity of 66.7%,specificity of 85.2%,accuracy of 80.0%,and a renal FF cut-off value was 2.46%.Conclusion IDEAL-IQ could non-invasively measure the renal fat content in DM patients,and the renal FF were significantly associated with DKD in early stage.

Anti-glomerular basement membrane (GBM) nephritis and anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA) -associated vasculitis are both autoimmune diseases that can involve multiple systems throughout the body, and both can cause crescent glomerulonephritis. At present, cases of such "double-positive" antibodies have been reported at home and abroad , but the cases of acute progressive glomerulonephritis (RPGN) with IgA nephropathy that are both positive for GBM and ANCA are relatively rare. This case was a middle-aged female patient, whose clinical manifestations were consistent with rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis, positive for anti-GBM antibodies and anti-myeloperoxidase. After renal puncture biopsy, she was diagnosed as anti-GBM nephritis complicated with ANCA associated vasculitis and IgA nephropathy.After treatment with plasma exchange, hemodialysis, glucocorticoids, cyclophosphamide, etc., the condition improved and the patient was discharged. But the patient did not follow the doctor's instructions to take medication and continue hemodialysis treatment after discharge, and the condition worsened, ultimately leading to death.

Objective To explore the effect and mechanism of Chaihu Longgu Muli Decoction (柴胡龙骨牡蛎汤, CHLGMLD) in rats with temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE). Methods A total of 80 Sprague-Dawley (SD) male rats were randomized into control (CON), model (MOD), carbamazepine (CBZ, 0.1 g/kg), CHLGMLD low dose (CHLGMLD-L, 12.5 g/kg), and high dose (CHLGMLD-H, 25 g/kg) groups, with 16 rats in each group. TLE rat models were established in the four groups with the use of lithium-pilocarpine except for the CON group. After the successful establishment of TLE models, all drugs were administered through gavage, and distilled water was given to rats in the CON and MOD groups for four weeks. The frequency and duration of seizures before and after treatment were recorded for the evaluation of the alleviation degree. Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) was used to detect the expression levels of miR-146a-3p and miR-146a-5p. The expression levels of toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4), interleukin-1 receptor-associated kinase 1 (IRAK1), tumor necrosis factor (TNF) receptor-associated factor 6 (TRAF6), TAK1-binding protein (TAB), nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB), and interleukin-1 beta (IL-1β) in hippocampus were tested by immunofluorescence assay. Correlation analysis between the above factors and expressions of miR-146a-3p and miR-146a-5p were performed separately. Results CHLGMLD decreased the frequency (P < 0.05) and duration (P < 0.01) of seizures in rats. CHLGMLD down-regulated the expression levels of miR-146a-5p and miR-146a-3p (P < 0.05), and inhibited the expression levels of TLR4, IRAK1, TRAF6, TAB, NF-κB, and IL-1β (P < 0.01). The correlation analysis revealed that the expression levels of TLR4, IRAK1, TRAF6, TAB, NF-κB, and IL-1β were positively correlated with the expression levels of miR-146a-3p and miR-146a-5p detected by qRT-PCR, respectively (P < 0.01). Conclusion CHLGMLD can inhibite the TLR4 signaling pathway by lowering the expression levels of miR-146a-3p and miR-146a-5p to alleviate hippocampal dentate gyrus inflammation in TLE rats, thus relieving seizures.

Objective To observe the impact of enhancing perioperative care on the clinical efficacy of the patients with intravascular intervention for treatment of patients with acute lower extremity deep venous thrombosis (LEDVT) complicated with pulmonary embolism (PE). Methods Twenty-nine patients with LEDVT complicated with PE admitted to the Tianjin First Center Hospital from May 2015 to February 2019 were enrolled, the pulmonary angiography + pulmonary thrombolysis was applied for all the patients, and 25 cases used inferior vena cava filter implantation, 1 patient underwent catheter-directed thrombolysis (CDT), 4 patients underwent mechanical endovascular aspiration of thromboembolism (PTM), etc intravascular interventional treatment, the peri-operative care was strengthened, including closely observation on the patient's condition, correct use of anticoagulant and thrombolytic drugs, in the mean time, after operation, the nursing care and observation on thrombolysis catheters, involved limbs, complications should be well performed, and health education and discharge guidance ought to be carried out. Before the patient was discharged from the hospital, the improvement of clinical symptoms and the changes of coagulation indexes D-dimer, fibrinogen (Fib), prothrombin time (PT), and activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) were observed; the Bartel index evaluation quantitative scale was used to assess the patient's activity of daily living (ADL) score; WeChat was used to investigate patient's satisfaction. Results In this group of 29 patients, postoperative chest tightness, shortness of breath symptoms were improved significantly, no fatal PE etc complications occurred. The pulmonary artery computed tomographic angiography (CTA) showed that the pulmonary artery and its branches PE basically disappeared or the measured range or area was obviously decreased. Re-examination of blood gas analysis showed that the arterial oxygen partial pressure (PaO2) was increased. Echocardiography revealed the improvement in pulmonary hypertension. 12 patients with pulmonary infection were improved after anti-inflammatory treatment, the swelling of the affected limb was significantly relieved, and the patients had no distending pain after activities on the ground. After treatment, the coagulation indexes D-dimer and fibrinogen (Fib) were significantly lower than those before treatment [D-dimer (μg/L):2 389.45±2 061.02 vs. 6 093.45±2 586.99, Fib (g/L): 3.18±0.91 vs. 4.07±1.49, both P < 0.01], there were no significant differences in PT and APTT before and after treatment [PT (s): 13.12±2.27 vs. 12.33±2.06, APTT (s):34.51±11.79 vs. 31.84±3.05, both P > 0.05]. After treatment, the ADL score of patients was obviously higher than that before treatment (scores: 79.66±6.26 vs. 17.24±8.30, P < 0.01). WeChat was used to investigate the patients' satisfaction, the nursing score was 95-100 points with an average of (97.38±1.37) points. Conclusion High quality nursing care can minimize the suffering to the largest extent in the patients with pulmonary thrombosis, elevate the quality of life, and reduce the disability and recurrence rates.
