Objective:To explore the application effect of health education path management model based on cloud platform in the perioperative period of patients with atrial fibrillation (AF), and analyze the feasibility of innovative education forms.Methods:Adopting a non synchronous historical control study design.A total of 291 patients who underwent transcatheter radiofrequency ablation in Fuzhou University Affiliated Provincial Hospital from January to June 2023 were selected by convenience sampling. To avoid contamination of research subjects by grouping them according to admission time, 144 patients admitted from January to March 2023 were used as the control group, and 147 patients admitted from April to June 2023 were used as the intervention group.The control group adopted the traditional health education method, and the intervention group adopted the health education path management mode based on the cloud platform.The postoperative recovery (length of hospital stay, time out of bed, surgical complications), the first postoperative bed urination, the degree of health knowledge related to atrial fibrillation, and the patient satisfaction were compared between the two groups.Results:There were 101 males and 43 females in the control group, was (61.74 ± 10.63) years old, and 103 males and 44 females in the intervention group, was (62.93 ± 8.79) years old.After the intervention, the hospitalization time of the intervention group was (4.25 ± 1.00) days, which was shorter than that of the control group (6.23 ± 1.16) days, and the difference was statistically significant ( t=5.92, P<0.05). The time of getting out of bed after operation in the intervention group was (6.69 ± 0.84) hours, which was earlier than that in the control group (12.69 ± 1.51) hours, and the difference was statistically significant ( t=25.68, P<0.05). There were 134 cases of no complications in the intervention group and 9 cases of subcutaneous hematoma, 2 cases of medical viscose-related skin injury, 1 case of pneumothorax/hemothorax, and 1 case of acute cerebrovascular event occurred, there were 113 cases of no complications in the intervention group, which had 16 cases of subcutaneous hematoma, 2 cases of medical viscose-related skin injury, 11 cases of pneumothorax/hemothorax, and 2 cases of acute cerebrovascular event, the difference was statistically significant ( χ2=12.38, P<0.05). There were 119 cases of spontaneous urination, 17 cases of dysuria and 11 cases of urinary retention in the intervention group, which were lower than 100 cases of spontaneous urination, 13 cases of dysuria and 31 cases of urinary retention in the control group, the difference was statistically significant ( χ2=11.68, P <0.05). Score of the health knowledge score of AF in the intervention group was (21.49 ± 0.16) points, which was higher than the control group's score of (18.30 ± 0.20) points, and the difference was statistically significant ( t=12.50, P<0.05). The satisfaction of intervention group's score was (20.12 ± 1.93) points, which was higher than the control group's score of (15.10 ± 3.13) points, and the difference was statistically significant ( t=16.51, P<0.05). Conclusions:The application of the health education path management model based on cloud platform in the perioperative period of patients with atrial fibrillation is conducive to promoting the rapid recovery of patients after surgery, improving their mastery of disease-related knowledge and satisfaction with health education, and has certain feasibility in clinical nursing health education.

Multiple sclerosis(MS)is a chronic central nervous system inflammatory demyelinating disease caused by autoim-mune diseases.Intermittent fasting(IF)is a dietary pattern with periodic energy limitation.Studies have shown that IF can delay the occurrence and development of MS and experimental allergic encephalomyelitis(EAE).Its mechanism of action includes repairing nerve damage,promoting myelin regeneration,regulating gut microbiota,and reversing immune inflammation.The use of IF can re-duce the severity,recurrence time,and lesion size of MS patients clinically,which brings new ideas for the treatment and prevention of MS.This article provides a review of the effects and mechanisms of IF in treating MS,with the aim of gaining new insights into the treatment of MS and providing reference for the application of IF in the treatment of MS patients.

Discoidin domain receptor 1(DDR1)is overexpressed in various tumors,such as triple-negative breast cancer(TNBC),and is rarely expressed in normal tissues.These characteristics make DDR1 a preferable target candidate for the construction of an antibody-drug conjugate(ADC)for targeted therapy.Here,we investigated the preparation and preclinical efficacy of DDR1-DX8951,an ADC that includes an anti-DDR1 monoclonal antibody conjugated to DX8951 by a cleavable Gly-Gly-Phe-Gly(GGFG)linker.The anti-DDR1 monoclonal antibody was coupled to DX8951(i.e.,DDR1-DX8951),producing the targeted ther-apy ADC.The antitumor activities of DDR1-DX8951 monotherapy or DDR1-DX8951 plus pembrolizumab were assessed in TNBC mouse models.DDR1-DX8951 can specifically target DDR1,be quickly internal-ized by TNBC cells,and reduce the viability of TNBC cells in vitro.The potent antitumor activity of DDR1-DX8951 was revealed in TNBC xenograft models.Importantly,our investigation demonstrated that DDR1-DX8951 plus pembrolizumab not only revealed the inhibitory efficacy on tumor growth and metastasis but also played an important role in improving the immunosuppressive tumor microenvi-ronment(TME)of TNBC.Taken together,this investigation provides justification for large-sample studies to further assess the safety and efficacy of DDR1-DX8951 plus pembrolizumab for TNBC clinical trials.

OBJECTIVE: To analyze the clinical characteristics and genotypic changes of six children with RARS2 gene variants. METHODS: The clinical data of 6 children with RARS2 gene variants diagnosed at the Third Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from January 2017 to August 2024 were collected. Genetic variants were detected using trio-whole exome sequencing. Genomic DNA was extracted from samples and subjected to high-throughput sequencing. Variants were detected and analyzed using relevant databases and software. Pathogenic variants were validated by Sanger sequencing. The protein structure encoded by a previously unreported variant was predicted using a SWISS-MODEL online server. This study was approved by the Medical Ethics Committee of the Third Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University (Ethics No.: 2024-373-01). RESULTS: Among the six children, four were males and two were females, with the most recent follow-up age ranging from 1-year-and-1-month to 7 years old. The age of onset was under 1 year in all cases. All six children exhibited seizures, including infantile spasms in three, spasms and tonic spasms in one, and focal seizures in two. One child became seizure-free for 4 ~ 5 years following Valproic acid combined with topiramate and adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) pulse therapy, but subsequently experienced a relapse. Another child has remained seizure-free for nearly one year with oral sodium valproate, levetiracetam, and a "cocktail" therapy. Seizures were not controlled in the remaining four children. Pontocerebellar hypoplasia was observed on neuroimaging in two children. All six patients exhibited severe psychomotor retardation. A total of 10 RARS2 gene variants were identified, three of which were previously unreported. CONCLUSION The predominant clinical features of Pontocerebellar hypoplasia associated with RARS2 gene variants include infantile onset, severe psychomotor retardation or regression, drug-resistant epilepsy, and feeding difficulties. The characteristic neuroimaging finding is pontocerebellar hypoplasia. However, its appearance may vary widely with time. The majority of affected children have a poor prognosis.

Objective:To compare the performance differences of domestic and imported CD3/CD28 activation beads for manufacturing CAR-T cells,providing a backup or alternative for domestic CAR-T cell research and manufacture.Methods:A mature protocol using imported CD3/CD28 activation beads with a 1∶1 ratio for CD3+T cells was implemented as research control.Domestic beads were used with gradient ratios of 1∶2,1∶1,and 2∶1 to activate T cells.72 h after T cell activation,CAR-T cells were manufactured by CAR lentiviral infection and cell proliferation was monitored at 2-,4-,and 7-days post-infection.Flow Cytometry was used to detect CAR-T cell positivity 5 days after infection and to detectCD4/CD8 phenotype of CAR-T cells and PD1+TIM3+cell exhaustion ratio 8 days after infection.Results:CAR-T cells manufactured by domestic CD3/CD28 activation beads exhibited similar phenotype compared with those manufactured by imported CD4/CD8 beads.The positive rate of CAR-T cells prepared with domestic beads was slightly lower than that of imported beads(53.7%vs 57.9%).However,the proliferation of CAR-T cells manufactured by domestic beads was about twice that of cells manufactured by imported beads,and the exhaustion level was only half that of imported beads(4.21%vs 7.91%).Moreover,the use of domestic magnetic beads was lower than that of imported magnetic beads,which was advantageous for cutting the costs of CAR-T cells research and manufacture.Conclusion:Domestic CD3/CD28 activation beads used for CAR-T cells manufacturing demonstrate comparable overall performance to their imported counterparts,showing potential as a backup or alternative for imported beads.

OBJECTIVE To observe the effect of Shixiang plaster on promoting the wound healing of diabetic foot ulcer.METHODS Totally 50 male SPF grade SD rats were prepared to establish the diabetic models by feeding with high glucose and high fat forage and intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin,the rats models that were es-tablished successfully were randomly divided into the model group,the Shixiang plaster group and the Kangfuxin solution group.The models of diabetic ulcers were established.The Shixiang plaster group was treated with exter-nal Shixiang plaster,the Kangfuxin solution group was given external Kangfuxin solution,and the model group was treated with coverage with sterile gauze.The wound healing status of the rats was observed,the wound tis-sues were collected for bacterial culture and hematoxylin-eosin(HE)staining after drug administration for 14 and 28 days,respectively.The expression levels of nuclear factor-red cell-2-related factor 2(Nrf-2),heme oxygenase-1(HO-1),tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α),interleukin-6(IL-6)and vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF)were detected by immunohistochemistry(IHC),the expression levels of Nrf-2 and HO-1 were detected with the use of Western Blot,and the levels of serum malondialdehyde(MDA),superoxide dismutase(SOD)and reactive oxygen species(ROS)were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA).RESULTS After the drug administration for 14 and 28 days,the wound healing rates of the Shixiang plaster group were(62.15±3.82)％and(81.68±3.83)％,respectively,higher than(47.14±2.80)％and(69.96±6.49)％of the Kangfuxin solu-tion group and(29.14±9.52)％and(57.91±6.63)％of the model group,and there were significant differences(F=21.716,12.626,P=0.002,0.007).The bacterial colony counts of the Shixiang plaster group were less than those of the Kangfuxin solution group and the model group after the drug administration for 14 and 28 days(P＜0.05).The result of HE staining showed that the Shixiang plaster group had a better wound healing.The result of IHC indicated that the expression levels of Nrf-2,HO-1 and VEGF of the Kangfuxin solution group and the Shix-iang plaster group were up-regulated after the drug administration for 28 days,while the expression levels of TNF-α and IL-6 were down-regulated.The expression levels of Nrf-2 and HO-1 proteins of the Shixiang plaster group were higher than those of the Kangfuxin solution group and the model group after the drug administration for 14 and 28 days,the levels of serum MDA and ROS of the Shixiang plaster group were lower than those of the Kangfuxin solution group and the model group,and the serum SOD level of the Shixiang plaster group was higher than that of the model group(P＜0.05).CONCLUSIONS Shixiang plaster can effectively promote the wound heal-ing of the rats with diabetic foot ulcers and reduce the bacterial colony counts of wound surfaces.The mechanism may be associated with the alleviation of oxidative stress injury by mediating the Nrf-2/HO-1 signaling pathways,promotion of angiogenesis and inhibition of excessive inflammatory reactions.

OBJECTIVE To observe the isolation rates and drug resistance rates of Acinetobacter baumannii strains isolated from intensive care unit(ICU)patients in 8 consecutive years so as to provide bases for reasonable clinical application of antibiotics and control of infections.METHODS The isolation rates and specimens from which the A.baumannii and carbapenem-resistant A.baumannii(CRAB)strains were isolated from ICU patients of the First People's Hospital of Changzhou between 2017 and 2024 were retrospectively analyzed.The trends of the drug resistance rates were observed.RESULTS Totally 2078(18.03％)strains of A.baumannii were isolated from the ICU patients from 2017 to 2024,and there was no significant difference in the changing trend among the years(x2=-1.573,P=0.116).Among the A.baumannii strains that were isolated from 2017 to 2024,58.08％were isolated from sputum,and 24.25％from lavage fluid specimens;the percentage of sputum specimens showed a downward trend in the 8 years(x2=-8.257,P＜0.001),while the percentage of lavage fluid speci-mens showed an upward trend(x2=12.964,P＜0.001).The isolation rate of the CRAB strains was 91.48％in 2017,92.61％in 2018,92.56％in 2019,82.53％in 2020,52.44％in 2021,showing a down-ward trend,and it began to rise in 2022-2024,there was significant difference(x2=-2.277,P=0.012).The isolation rates of the CRAB strains from both sputum and lavage fluid specimens showed downward trends and then upward trends(all P＜0.05).The drug resistance rates of the A.baumannii strains to piperacillin and minocycline showed slow upward trends,while the drug resistance rates to gentamicin and tigecycline showed downward trends,and there were significant differences(P＜0.05).The drug resistance rates of the A.bau-mannii strains to imipenem and meropenem remained more than 90％.CONCLUSIONS Acinetobacter spp is the major pathogen causing the hospital-acquired infection.The isolation rate of CRAB strains shows a downward trend then a upward trend in recent two years.It is necessary for the hospital to standardize the submission of spu-tum specimens and increase the aseptic submission.The A.baumannii strains show high drug resistance rates to the commonly used antibiotics.Polymyxin B,tigecycline and minocycline are the major antibiotics for treatment of CRAB infection.

Objective To explore aging effect on healthy cerebral white matter using fixel-based analysis(FBA)on diffusion tensor imaging.Methods Eighty-seven healthy participants were divided into younger group and older group according to their ages,and all of whom were examined with diffusion tensor imaging at 3.0T.The fractional anisotropy(FA)of two groups was compared using whole brain voxel-based analysis(VBA).Then,FBA was used to calculate complexity(CX),fiber density(FD),fiber cross-section(FC)and fiber density and fiber cross-section(FDC)in voxels where older group exhibited significantly lower FA values than younger group.Finally,certain tracts of interest were chosen for tract-specific analyses.Results Compared with younger group,older group had significantly lower FA values in the genu of corpus callosum,splenium of corpus callosum,fornix,and posterior limb of internal capsule(P<0.05).Besides the above regions,older group showed significantly lower FD,FC and FDC in the anterior thalamic radiation,anterior limb of internal capsule,cerebral peduncle,superior longitudinal fasciculus,inferior longitudinal fasciculus,cingulum gyrus,forceps-minor and uncinate fasciculus(P<0.05).In voxels where FA values of older group were significantly lower than those of younger group,strong negative correlation was observed between average CX and average FA,while positive correlation was observed between average FD/FDC and average FA.Quantitative tract-specific analyses showed that older group had showed lower FD,FC and FDC in regard of superior longitudinal fasciculus,inferior longitudinal fasciculus,cingulum,anterior thalamic radiation,forceps-minor and uncinate fasciculus(P<0.05).Conclusion FBA reveals the characteristics of specific fibers and can be used to perform comprehensive and effective evaluation of aging effect on healthy cerebral white matter.
