OBJECTIVE: To compare the effects of different chest compression rates (60-140 times/min) on hemodynamic parameters, return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC), resuscitation success, and survival in a porcine model of cardiac arrest (CA) followed by cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). METHODS: Forty healthy male domestic pigs were randomly divided into five groups based on chest compression rate: 60, 80, 100, 120, and 140 times/min (n = 8). All animals underwent standard anesthesia and tracheal intubation. A catheter was inserted via the left femoral artery into the thoracic aorta to monitor aortic pressure (AOP), and another via the right external jugular vein into the right atrium to monitor right atrial pressure (RAP). In each group, animals were implanted with a stimulating electrode via the right external jugular vein to the endocardium, and ventricular fibrillation (VF) was induced by delivering alternating current stimulation, resulting in CA. After a 1-minute, manual chest compressions were performed at the assigned rate with a compression depth of 5 cm. The first defibrillation was delivered after 2 minutes of CPR. No epinephrine or other pharmacologic agents were administered during the entire resuscitation process. From 1 minute before VF induction to 10 minutes after ROSC, dynamic monitoring of AOP, coronary perfusion pressure (CPP), and partial pressure of end-tidal carbon dioxide (P_ETCO₂). Cortical ultrastructure was examined 24 hours post-ROSC using transmission electron microscopy. RESULTS: With increasing compression rates, both the total number of defibrillations and cumulative defibrillation energy significantly decreased, reaching their lowest levels in the 120 times/min group. The number of defibrillations decreased from (4.88±0.83) times in the 60 times/min group to (2.25±0.71) times in the 120 compressions/min group, and energy from (975.00±166.90)J to (450.00±141.42)J. However, both parameters increased again in the 140 times/min group [(4.75±1.04)times, (950.00±207.02)J], the differences among the groups were statistically significant (both P < 0.01). As compression frequency increased, P_ETCO₂, pre-defibrillation AOP and CPP significantly improved, peaking in the 120 times/min group [compared with the 60 times/min group, P_ETCO₂ (mmHg, 1 mmHg≈0.133 kPa): 18.69±1.98 vs. 8.67±1.30, AOP (mmHg): 95.13±7.06 vs. 71.00±6.41, CPP (mmHg): 14.88±6.92 vs. 8.57±3.42]. However, in the 140 times/min group, these values declined significantly again [P_ETCO₂, AOP, and CPP were (10.59±1.40), (72.38±11.49), and (10.36±4.57) mmHg, respectively], the differences among the groups were statistically significant (all P < 0.01). The number of animals achieving ROSC, successful resuscitation, and 24-hour survival increased with higher compression rates, reaching a peak in the 120 times/min group (compared with the 60 times/min group, ROSC: 7 vs. 2, successful resuscitation: 7 vs. 2, 24-hour survival: 7 vs.1), then decreased again in the 140 times/min group (the animals that ROSC, successfully recovered and survived for 24 hours were 3, 3, and 2, respectively). Transmission electron microscopy revealed that in the 60, 80, and 140 times/min groups, nuclear membranes in cerebral tissue were irregular and incomplete, nucleoli were indistinct, and mitochondria were swollen with reduced cristae and abnormal morphology. In contrast, the 100 times/min and 120 times/min groups exhibited significantly attenuated ultrastructural damage. CONCLUSIONS Among the tested chest compression rates of 60-140 times/min, a chest compressions frequency of 120 times/min is the most favorable hemodynamic profile and outcomes during CPR in a porcine CA model. However, due to the wide spacing between groups, further investigation is needed to determine the optimal compression rate range more precisely.

ObjectiveTo analyze the effects of new integration processing method in producing area and traditional method on the composition and pharmacological action of Polygoni Multiflori Radix Praeparata（PMRP）， and to illustrate the advantages of toxicity reducing and efficacy enhancing of the decoction pieces prepared by the new method. MethodFresh Polygoni Multiflori Radix（PMR） was taken from Dao-di producing area， and was processed by new integration processing method in producing area（steaming with black bean juice under pressure of 0.1 MPa and temperature at 120 ℃ for 10.5 h） and traditional method（steaming with black bean juice under water for 36 h）， respectively. Samples were collected during the processing process of the two methods， For new method， the samples were collected at 0.5， 3， 5.5， 8， 10.5 h， separately. For traditional method， the samples were collected every 4 h. High performance liquid chromatography（HPLC） was used to establish fingerprint and identify common peaks， the content of polysaccharides was determined by anthrone-sulfuric acid colorimetry at 627 nm， and the contents of anthraquinones and stilbene glycosides in different processed products were determined according to the methods under the item of determination of PMR and PMRP in the 2020 edition of Chinese Pharmacopoeia. In pharmacological experiments， 90 SD rats were randomly divided into 9 groups with 10 in each group（half of male and half of female）， including the blank group， and raw products， 24 h processed products under atmospheric pressure， 30 h processed products under atmospheric pressure， 8 h processed products under high pressure groups with low and high dosages（4.125， 16.5 g·kg^-1）. Rats were given the drug by gavage for 29 d with once a day， blood was collected from the abdominal aorta after the last administration， and the serum was isolated， the body mass and liver mass of rats were weighed and the organ index was calculated. The pathological change of liver tissue was observed by hematoxylin-eosin（HE） staining， and biochemical methods were used to detect the contents of aspartate aminotransferase（AST）， alanine aminotransferase（ALT）， alkaline phosphatase（ALP）， γ-glutamyltransferase（GGT）， lactic dehydrogenase（LDH） in serum which used as liver function indicators and the levels of superoxide dismutase（SOD）， malondialdehyde（MDA）， glutathione peroxidase（GSH-Px） in brain tissues which used as oxidation indicators. ResultA total of 14 common peaks were identified in the fingerprint of PMR， PMRP prepared by new method and traditional method， and three of the peaks were designated as stilbene glycoside， emodin and emodin methyl ether， respectively. The characteristic peak areas of each processed products changed significantly from 0 min to 25 min， indicating that different processing methods had an effect on the contents of components with high polarity in PMRP， and the trend of the changes of the two methods was similar， with the higher degree of change in the new method. The determination results showed that compared with the traditional method， the content of polysaccharide（a kind of beneficial component in PMRP obtained by the new method） significantly increased， while the contents of stilbene glycoside and bound anthraquinone（liver-damaging ingredients） significantly decreased. The pharmacological results showed that compared with the blank group， AST and LDH levels of male rats in the low and high dose groups of 24 h processed products under atmospheric pressure and AST level of male rats in the low and high dose groups of 8 h processed products under high pressure were significantly reduced（P<0.05， P<0.01）， while compared with the raw product groups with the same dose， AST and LDH levels of male rats in the low dose group of 30 h processed products under atmospheric pressure were significantly reduced（P<0.05， P<0.01）， the AST levels of male rats in the low and high dose groups of 8 h processed products under high pressure were significantly decreased（P<0.01）， and there was no statistical significance in the differences of biochemical indexes of female rats in each administration group as compared with those of the blank group. ConclusionThe new integration processing method in producing area of PMRP can reach the quality of relevant regulations in 8 h. The processed products obtained by this method have more advantages than the traditional method in terms of toxicity reducing and efficacy enhancing， and energy saving to avoid the loss of ingredients， which can provide ideas for the production of high-quality decoction pieces of PMRP， and the integration processing method in producing area of other roots and rhizomes of traditional Chinese medicines.

Traditional antibody drug conjugates(ADC)combine monoclonal antibodies with cytotoxic drugs to accurately strike cancer cells,but there are still many shortcomings in stability,targeting,efficacy,and safety.Novel ADC,such as bi-specific,site-specific,dual-payload,and pro-drug type ADC,can be optimized by simultaneously binding 2 different antigens or epitopes,selecting more stable linkers,coupling with specific amino acid sites of antibodies,carrying different drug payloads,and adopting prodrug strategies,while retaining the characteristics of traditional ADC.Significantly improving the stability,targeting,efficacy and safety of drugs can better meet the needs of clinical treatment.Novel ADC will play a more important role in cancer treatment in the future.Discussing the progress of novel ADC in cancer treatment and analyzing their advantages and challenges can provide theoretical support for the development of anti-cancer strategies and provide directions for drug research and development.

Objective: To explore the network structure characteristics and core items of rural middle school students suffering from campus bullying and anxiety symptoms, so as to provide a reference basis for the precise prevention and intervention of the comorbidity of campus bullying and anxiety symptoms. Methods: From September 2021 to March 2022, a multi stage random cluster sampling method was used to select 1 920 rural middle school students from Xuzhou. The Chinese version of the Olweus Bully/Victim Questionnaire was used to investigate the situation of campus bullying, and the Chinese version of the Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD-7) was used to assess anxiety symptoms. The network analysis method was used to construct the network between suffering from campus bullying and anxiety symptoms of rural middle school students to evaluate the centrality, bridge strength, stability and accuracy of each item. Results: The total score of suffering from campus bullying symptoms of rural middle school students was (10.42±3.26) points, and the total score of anxiety symptoms was (11.47±4.93) points. The symptom with the highest strength and expected influence was "unable to stop or control one s worry emotions", and the node strength and expected influence value was 1.041 7. The nodes "feel nervous, anxious or irritable" and "unable to stop or control one s worry emotions" were most closely related. The symptoms with the highest bridge strength were "others give me ugly nicknames to scold me or make fun of and satirize me" and "unable to stop or control one s worry emotions". Conclusions Rural middle school students suffering from campus bullying is related to anxiety symptoms. Accurate intervention according to the intervention targets may minimize the negative impact of suffering from campus bullying and anxiety symptoms on rural middle school students.

BACKGROUND:Adjustable piezoelectric effect can promote tissue regeneration and repair.Piezoelectric materials are widely used in weight-bearing tissue engineering. OBJECTIVE:To prepare a piezoelectric film material that can promote bone regeneration,and to explore its structural characterization,electrical output performance,biocompatibility,and effect of electrical output on osteogenic differentiation of rabbit bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells. METHODS:Using poly-3-hydroxybutyrateco/4-hydroxybutyrate(P34HB)as raw material,barium calcium stannate titanate powder(Ba0.94Ca0.06Sn0.08Ti0.92O3,BCST)was added according to mass ratios of 0%,5%,10%,15%,and 20%.Dichloromethane was added to solve P34HB,and the thickness of 150-200 μm BCST/P34HB piezoelectric film was prepared by vacuum drying method.After polarization in the oil bath,the surface morphology,crystal phase composition,piezoelectric coefficient and open circuit voltage were tested.The effect of BCST/P34HB electrical output at 110 Hz and 0.25 N force on the proliferation and osteogenic differentiation of rabbit bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells was tested. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Scanning electron microscopy,X-ray diffraction,water contact angle,piezoelectric coefficient and electrical output performance tests showed that when the mass ratio of BCST increased to 20%,the BCST/P34HB piezoelectric film had good piezoelectric properties(d33=5.9 pC/N)and electrical output performance(180 mV),which was closer to the suitable range of 500 mV for electrical stimulation.(2)Live and dead staining showed that on the first day of co-culture,15%group and 20%group showed less red fluorescence.On the 5th day of culture,the number of green fluorescence in each group was significantly higher than that on the first day,and the red fluorescence was not observed in the 10%,15%and 20%groups,and only a small amount of red fluorescence was observed in the 0%and 5%groups.(3)On the 1st,3rd and 5th days of co-culture with rabbit bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells,Almar blue staining exhibited that the number of cells in each group showed an increasing trend with the increase of time.On the 5th day of culture,the number of cells in the 20%group was significantly more than that in the 0%group(P<0.05).(4)On day 10 of osteogenic induction,alkaline phosphatase staining results showed that the positive rate of the 20%group was significantly higher than that of the 0%group(P=0.000 1).On day 21,alizarin red staining and quantitative analysis of calcium nodules showed a similar trend to alkaline phosphatase staining.Compared with the 0%group,the 15%group and 20%group showed significant differences(P<0.01,P<0.000 1).(5)The results showed that 20%BCST/P34HB films had good piezoelectric properties,electrical output properties,biocompatibility and the ability of promoting osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells.

Although immunotherapy has made a breakthrough in the treatment of cancer,the emergence of drug resistance has limited be-nefits in most patients,and reversing immunotherapy resistance remains a hotly debated and unresolved issue.The tumor microenviron-ment(TME)comprises a large number of T lymphocytes.During the biological processes of proliferation,activation,and the effect of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes(TILs),TILs face severe local metabolic stress,resulting in metabolic reprogramming to meet the markedly increased energy demand and biosynthesis requirements.This process of adaptive changes in the metabolic pattern is closely related to the pheno-type and function of TILs,affecting immunotherapy efficacy and mediating immunotherapy resistance.In recent years,with the study of TIL metabolism and the search for specific metabolic regulatory points,targeting the TIL metabolic pathway could restore the tumor-killing func-tion and reverse immunotherapy resistance.This review explores the relationship between the metabolic reprogramming of TILs and im-mune resistance,and provides a new strategy for reversing immune resistance.

Objective:To explore the core competency of doctors in tertiary public hospitals in regions of different income levels in China, and provide reference for promoting such competency and related policy formulation.Methods:Using multi-stage stratified cluster sampling method, 195 tertiary public hospitals in 16 provinces of China were selected from November 2021 to March 2022. 200 doctors were sampled from each hospital. A self-designed questionnaire was used to investigate the status of doctors′ core competencies, as well as the status of their postgraduate medical education and continuing medical education. According to the per capita gross regional product of each province in China Statistical Yearbook 2022, each province was divided into high, middle and low income regions, and the questionnaire data were descriptively analyzed, while χ2 test was used to compare the differences between groups. Results:A total of 32 673 valid questionnaires were collected. There were 12 135 doctors (37.14%) in China who had received comprehensive education and training of core competency in all dimensions. Among the dimensions of self-rated core competency of the surveyed doctors, there were 10 019 doctors (30.66%) with insufficient teaching ability and 438 (1.34%) with insufficient professional quality, and there was no significant difference between regions ( P>0.05). There were 2 385 (27.08%), 2 528 (27.55%) and 3 646 (24.82%) doctors in high-, middle- and low-income regions with insufficient lifelong learning ability, respectively. The proportion of doctors in middle- and high-income regions was higher than that in low-income ones ( P<0.05). There were 1 317 (15.57%), 1 290 (14.06%) and 2 719 (18.51%) doctors with insufficient knowledge and skills in high-, middle- and low-income areas, respectively. The proportion of doctors in low-income regions was higher than that in middle- and high-income regions ( P<0.05). The proportion of doctors who did not receive any kind of postgraduate medical education or continuing medical education in low-income regions was 7.33% (1 077 people), higher than that in high-income and middle- income ones ( P<0.05); 50.44% (4 442 people) of surveyed doctors in high-income regions believed that for standardized training of resident physicians (hereinafter referred to as residential training), the clinical teachers were " overworked to take this job", which was higher than that in middle- and low-income regions ( P<0.001); In middle-income regions, 46.16% (4 235 people) and 43.46% (3 987 people) believed that the salary residents and specialized physicians in standardized training (hereinafter referred to as specialized training) was too low, while 42.47% (3 897 people) and 30.44% (2 793 people) believed that the clinical practice opportunities of students were limited, both of which were higher than those in high-income and low-income regions ( P<0.001); 34.91% (5 128 people) of surveyed doctors in low-income regions believed that the investment was insufficient for training bases of residential training, 27.81% (4 085 people) of those held that training bases for specialized training were unevenly distributed, and 33.19% (4 876 people) of those held that continuing medical education was plagued by " insufficient promotion coverage, and insufficient opportunities for primary doctors", all of which being higher than those in high- and middle-income regions ( P<0.001). Conclusions:There is an obvious need to improve the core competence of doctors in the teaching ability dimension of tertiary public hospitals in China, especially in middle- and high-income regions for lifelong learning, and in low-income regions for knowledge and skills; There are differences between postgraduate medical education and continuing medical education systems in regions of different income levels in China. It is necessary to improve the competency oriented postgraduate medical education and continuing medical education systems.
