Objective To investigate the expression of serum microRNA(miR)-340-5p,miR-155-5p and their relationship with Th1/Th2 cytokines in patients with chronic hepatitis B.Methods A total of 128 pa-tients with chronic hepatitis B in this hospital from October 2021 to October 2023 were selected as the study group,and 96 healthy subjects from the hospital during the same period were selected as the control group.The expression levels of serum miR-340-5p and miR-155-5p were detected by fluorescence quantitative PCR(qPCR),and the expression levels of serum Th1/Th2 cytokines were detected by enzyme-linked immunosor-bent assay(ELISA).The relationship between miR-340-5p,miR-155-5p and Th1/Th2 cytokines was analyzed by Pearson method,and the influence of serum miR-340-5p and miR-155-5p on the occurrence of chronic HPV infection was analyzed by Logistic regression.Results Compared with the reference group,the serum levels of miR-340-5p,miR-155-5p,IL-4,and IL-13 in the study group decreased(P＜0.05),while the levels of IFN-γand IL-12 increased(P＜0.05).Serum miR-340-5p was negatively correlated with IFN-γ and IL-12(r=-0.315,-0.293,both P＜0.05),and positively correlated with IL-4 and IL-13(r=0.413,0.412,both P＜0.05).Serum miR-155-5p was negatively correlated with IFN-γ and IL-12(r=-0.406,-0.375,both P＜0.05),and positively correlated with IL-4 and IL-13(r=0.343,0.407,both P＜0.05).Serum miR-340-5p(OR=0.735,95％CI:Increased expression levels of 0.590-0.915)and miR-155-5p(OR=0.612,95％CI:0.416-0.900)were protective factors for the occurrence of chronic hepatitis B.IFN-γ(OR=1.652,95％CI:1.170-2.333)and IL-12(OR=1.063,95％CI:1.012-1.116)were risk factors for chronic hepatitis B(P＜0.05).Conclusion Serum miR-340-5p and miR-155-5p are usually low expressed in chronic hepatitis B patients,and they are negatively correlated with Th1 cytokine level and positively correlated with Th2 cytokine level.

Objective: To investigate the aberrant alterations of microRNAs ( miRNAs) in exosomes derived from bone marrow stromal cells ( BMSCs) in the bone marrow supernatants of patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and their impact on the prognosis of AML patients . Methods: Bone marrow supernatant samples were col- lected from three AML patients and three healthy donors . Exosomes were isolated using a commercial kit , identif- ying the morphology and marker expression , and subjected to miRNA sequencing to determine differentially ex- pressed miRNAs (DE-miRNAs) . The DE-miRNAs were then intersected with the exosomal miRNA expression pro- files of primary AML cells (GSE64029) to exclude AML cell - derived signals and to identify BMSC-derived DE - miRNAs . Subsequently , candidate miRNAs were identified through Cox regression and Lasso regression analyses based on data from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) . A prognostic risk model for AML was constructed , and pa- tients were stratified into high-risk and low-risk groups according to the median risk score . The prognostic value and clinical relevance of the model were further validated . Finally , the target genes of the candidate miRNAs were pre- dicted , followed by pathway enrichment analysis , construction of key regulatory networks , and correlation analysis between the expression levels of key miRNAs and their corresponding target genes . Results: Isolated exosomes ex- hibited a typical cup-shaped morphology with intact structures with particle size of 30 - 150 nm , and expressed exo- somal markers CD63 , ALIX , and TSG101 . miRNA sequencing identified 103 DE-miRNAs in AML patients com- pared with healthy donors; after intersection with the GSE64029 dataset , 83 BMSC-derived DE-miRNAs were re- tained . Among these , five candidate miRNAs ( miR-25-3p , miR-532-5p , miR-194-5p , miR-10a-5p , and miR- 20a-5p) were used to construct the prognostic model . Kaplan-Meier survival analysis demonstrated significantly lon- ger overall survival in the low-risk group compared with the high-risk group (P < 0. 05) . The areas under the ROC curve for the training/validation cohorts were 0. 80/0. 74 , 0. 80/0. 78 , and 0. 79/0. 64 at 1 , 2 , and 3 years , re- spectively . The prognostic model was significantly associated with risk stratification , patient age , and FAB classifi- cation (P < 0. 05) . KEGG pathway enrichment revealed that target genes of the candidate miRNAs were closely linked to cancer-related signaling pathways , including hepatocellular carcinoma , breast cancer , and non-small cell lung cancer. Correlation analysis indicated that the candidate miRNAs were significantly associated with key genes such as HIF1A , CREB1 , PIK3CA , IGF1R , PIK3R1 , TIAM1 , CRK , and PTEN (P < 0. 05) . Conclusion AML patients exhibit distinct miRNA expression profiles in BMSC-derived exosomes . A five-miRNA signature ( miR-25 - 3p , miR-532-5p , miR-194-5p , miR-10a-5p , and miR-20a-5p) demonstrates robust prognostic performance , sup- porting its potential clinical utility in risk stratification and outcome prediction for AML.

【Objective】 To explore the model of "One Core, Multiple Elements" emergency blood donation volunteer team (referred to as the Model) . 【Methods】 The Nanjing City Voluntary Blood Donation Joint Meeting serves as the core, with diverse entities including party committees, government departments, district governments, social organizations, enterprises, blood donors, etc. Following the principles of "emergency response in emergencies, wartime readiness, combining regular and wartime efforts," and adhering to the framework of the Model, the emergency blood donation volunteer team system in Nanjing was constructed. 【Results】 1) After the construction of the Model (2018—2022), the total number of emergency blood donation volunteers in Nanjing City increased by 191% compared to the pre-construction period (2013—2017), with an average annual blood donation of 20 929, showing significant differences (P<0.05). 2) After the construction of the Model, the number of emergency blood donation during the winter and summer increased by 206% and 185%, respectively, compared to the pre-construction period, demonstrating significant differences (P< 0.05) .3) Prior to the construction of the Model, Nanjing lacked a relatively stable emergency volunteer team.

Objective To probe into the total number and development status of respiratory physicians in China, and to analyze existing problems, for reference in making strategy and policy decisions in professional development of respiratory physicians in the country. Methods The basic information of China′s healthcare institutions and healthcare manpower in 2015 were provided by the Statistics Center of the National Health Commission. The number of respiratory specialists and their profile, drawn from such basic information, were subject to descriptive statistics. Results In 2015, there were 2.729 million medical practitioners ( including assistant doctors ) nationwide, 30.3 thousand among whom being respiratory physicians, accounting for 1.11% of the total. Among these respiratory physicians, practicing respiratory physicians account for 87.1% , respiratory physicians with a master degree and above account for only 19.7% , respiratory physicians with over 10 years of working experience account for 65.8% , respiratory physicians with senior titles account for only 21.4% , and 89.4% of the respiratory physicians work in general hospitals. Conclusions By the criteria of specializing in respiratory specialty over five years and being attending or above, the number approximates 14. 6 thousand nationwide. If practicing ( assistant) physicians specializing in respiratory specialty are also included, the number may hit 30. 3 thousand. Such a number, compared with other specialties, may be sufficient, yet their competence is far from satisfactory. Therefore it is imperative to build a standardized pulmonary medicine fellowship training system for their competence improvement.

Objective To learn the present setup of respiratory departments as well as development of diagnosis and treatment in China, for reference and policy making of the respiratory specialty development. Methods In May and June 2016,3 202 hospitals were surveyed, to learn their respiratory department development,development of sub-specialty,naming of departments,staffing ratio of the medical staff to bed,basic indicators for medical services,medical techniques and disease types treated. Results 77.8% of the tertiary hospitals and 38.8% of the secondary hospitals have independent respiratory departments. Among such tertiary hospitals,54.4% of them have respiratory intensive care units,21.8% have respiratory & sleep disorder clinics, and 13.1% have smoking cessation clinic. The physician-nurse ratio of respiratory department of such hospitals amounted to 1:1.66, while that of secondary hospitals to 1:1.61. 99.8% of the tertiary hospitals and about 95.0% of the secondary hospitals are competent of invasive positive pressure ventilation,noninvasive mechanical ventilation,and pulmonary function test among others. Conclusions Rooms of improvement are found in the following areas. Poor respiratory specialty and sub-specialty construction at such hospitals; insufficient nursing staff; tertiary hospitals have not formed unique advantages in diagnosis and treatment techniques and types of diseases; hierarchical medical system is to be further established.

Objective To investigate the cluster nursing in improving the weaning success rate of emergency neurally adjusted ventilatory assist (NAVA) in patients with acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD).Methods A total of 72 AECOPD patients treated with NAVA in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University emergency intensive care unit (EICU) from January 2014 to January 2016 were collected and randomly divided into observation group and control group according to the random number table, 36 cases respectively. The observation group received the cluster nursing, and the control group used the traditional nursing. The incidence of ventilator associated pneumonia (VAP), length of stay, the service time and weaning success rate of ventilator were compared between two groups.Results The length of stay in EICU [(7.33±1.79) d]and the service time of ventilator [(3.17±0.63) d]in the observation group were shorter than those in the control group, the differences were statistically significant (t=8.912, 16.524;P<0.05). The incidence of VAP (13.89%) in the observation group was statistically significantly lower than those in the control group (χ2=9.425,P<0.05). The weaning success rate (86.11%) in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group (χ2=8.134,P<0.05).Conclusions The cluster nursing in AECOPD patients with emergency NAVA treatment can significantly reduce the ventilator-associated complications and improve the success rate of weaning. It is worthy of clinical promotion.
