Aim To study the active ingredients and mechanism of action of Xinkeshu tablets against myo-cardial ischemia by network pharmacology and ze-brafish model.Methods The anti-myocardial ische-mia activity of Xinkeshu tablets was evaluated by iso-prenaline hydrochloride(ISO)-induced zebrafish myo-cardial ischemia model and H2O2-induced H9c2 dam-age model.The active ingredients of Xinkeshu tablets were retrieved using databases such as TCMSP.The potential targets were predicted by PharmaMapper data-base.Myocardial ischemic disease targets were searched by OMIM database.The potential therapeutic targets of Xinkeshu tablets against myocardial ischemia were analyzed.GO and KEGG enrichment analysis were conducted on core targets.The active ingredients were verified by zebrafish and cell model.qRT-PCR was used to detect the expression of key targets.Re-sults Xinkeshu tablets could significantly alleviate ISO-induced pericardial edema and bradycardia.It al-so could increase sinus venous-bulb aortic(SV-BA)distance and improve the cell viability.The 30 poten-tial active ingredients of Xinkeshu tables mainly acted on 30 core targets,including ALB,AKT1 and MAPK1,to regulate 627 GO items,including protein phosphorylation,negative regulation of apoptosis and positive regulation of PI3K signal transduction.KEGG results showed that 117 signaling pathways,including PI3K/Akt,FOXO and Ras,exerted anti-myocardial ischemia effect.Salvianolic acid A,lithospermic acid,rosmarinic acid,salvianolic acid D,salvianolic acid B,ginsenoside Rg2,hyperoside,3'-methoxypuerarin,3'-hydroxypuerarin and ginsenoside Rg1 could alleviate ISO-induced zebrafish myocardial ischemia and im-prove the cell viability.Xinkeshu tablets could upregu-late the expression of genes such as ras and akt1,and downregulate the expression of genes such as mapk1 and mapk8.Conclusion The active ingredients,in-cluding salvianolic acid A in Xinkeshu tablets,exert anti-myocardial ischemia effects by targeting targets,such as AKT1,MAPK1,and regulating signaling path-ways,such as PI3K/Akt,MAPK and Ras.

Aim To explore the effects of Huannao Yicong decoction(HYD)on the learning and memory ability and brain iron metabolism in APP/PS1 mice and the correlation of HAMP knockout mice and APP/PS1 double transgenic model mice.Methods The ex-periment was divided into five groups,namely,HAMP-/-group(6-month HAMP gene knockout mice),APP/PS1 group(6-month APP/PS1-double-transgenic mice),HAMP-/-+HYD,APP/PS1+HYD,and negative control group(6-month C57BL/6J mice),with six mice in each group.The dose was ad-ministered(13.68 g·kg-1 weight),and the other groups received distilled water for gavage once a day for two months.After the administration of the drug,the mice in each group were tested for learning and memory in the Morris water maze;Biochemical detec-tion was performed to detect iron ion content in each mouse brain;Western blot and RT-qPCR were carried out to analyze hippocampal transferrin(TF),transfer-rin receptor1(TFR1),membrane iron transporter1(FPN1)divalent metal ion transporter 1(DMT1)and β-amyloid protein(Aβ)protein and mRNA expression levels in each group.Results Compared with the normal group,both HAMP-/-mice and APP/PS1 mice had reduced the learning and memory capacity,in-creased iron content in brain tissue,Aβ protein ex-pression increased in hippocampus of HAMP-/-group and APP/PS1 group mice(P＜0.01),the protein and mRNA expression of TF,TFR1 and DMT1 increased in hippocampal tissues of HAMP-/-and APP/PS1 groups(P＜0.01),and the FPN1 protein and mRNA expres-sion decreased(P＜0.01).Compared with the HAMP-and APP/PS1 groups,respectively,HAMP-/-+HYD group and APP/PS1+HYD group had improved learning and memory ability,decreased iron content,decreased Aβ protein expression(P＜0.01),decreased TF,TFR1,DMT1 protein and mR-NA expression(P＜0.01),and increased expression of FPN1 protein and mRNA(P＜0.01).Conclusions There is some association between HAMP-/-mice and APP/PS1 mice,HYD can improve the learning and memory ability of HAMP-/-and APP/PS1 mice and reduce the Aβ deposition.The mechanism may be related to the regulation of TF,TFR1,DMT1,FPN1 expression and improving brain iron overload.

Objective To verify the safety and efficacy of a new portable extracorporeal membrane oxygenation(ECMO)system(Xijing Advanced Life Support System JC-Ⅲ)in large animals.Methods A total of 10 healthy small fat-tail sheep underwent veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation(VA-ECMO)support by carotid arterial-jugular catheterization to evaluate the performance of the JC-Ⅲ ECMO system.Systemic anticoagulation was achieved by continuous infusion of heparin.Active coagulation time(ACT)was recorded every 2 hours during the experiment,and the ACT was maintained between 200-250 s.Centrifugal pump speed is set at 3 000-3 500 r/min.The changes of hemoglobin,blood cell counts,hematocrit,liver and kidney function were monitored before and 24 h after ECMO initiation,respectively.After the experiment,the pump and oxygenator were dissected to probe the thrombosis.Results The success rate of VA-ECMO operation was 100％,and there was no hemolysis,pump thrombosis and oxygenator thrombosis after 24 h of ECMO.Before and after the operation,there were no significant changes in indicators such as hemoglobin content,white blood cell counts,platelet counts,alanine aminotransferase concentration,aspartate aminotransferase concentration,urea,creatinine,high-sensitivity troponin Ⅰ,and N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide(all P＞0.05).Conclusions This in vivo study confirms that Xijing Advanced Life support System JC-Ⅲ is safe and effective.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of ixazomib combined with thalidomide and dexamethasone in the treatment of multiple myeloma(MM).Methods:The clinical data of 60 MM patients admitted to our center from January 2019 to June 2022 were analyzed retrospectively,including 43 newly diagnosed patients and 17 patients with recurrence and progression.All patients were treated with ixazomib combined with thalidomide and dexamethasone,and completed 2 to 7 treatment cycles.Results:The overall response rate(ORR)of all patients was 98.3％.Among them,53 patients completed 4 treatment cycles,and the ORR was 86.8％.Seventeen patients completed the whole treatment cycle,with curative effect reaching 88.2％achieving very good partial response and above,and 52.9％achieving complete response and above.Albumin and β2-microglobulin of all patients had been improved rapidly after treatment.The deadline was August 31,2022.The median follow-up time was 14(3-24)months,and overall survival(OS)rate was 86.67％.The OS rate of patients with recurrence and progression was significantly lower than that of newly diagnosed patients(P＜0.05).The most common adverse reaction of hematology was lymphopenia(53.3％),followed by anemia(33.3％).The most common non-hematological adverse reaction was fatigue(68.33％),followed by peripheral neuropathy(31.67％).Conclusion:Ixazomib combined with thalidomide and dexamethasone is effective in the treatment of MM,with good short-term efficacy,survival and safety.However,its long-term efficacy needs further observation.

Objective:To analyze the application value of serum carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), carbohydrate antigen (CA)19-9 and CA242 in screening colorectal cancer with a meta-analysis.Methods:A literature search was conducted in the databases of Pubmed, Embase, Cochrane, CNKI, Wanfang and VIP to identify studies on applying CEA, CA19-9 and CA242 for detection of colorectal cancer from the establishment of the databases to October 2023. The Quality Evaluation Tool of Diagnostic Accuracy Studies (QUADAS-2) was used to evaluate the quality of the literature. Stata17.0 statistical software was used for meta-analysis. Deeks funnel plot was used to analyze publication bias.Results:A total of 34 articles of case-control studies met the criteria. Meta-analysis revealed that the diagnostic accuracy and sensitivity of CEA, CA19-9 and CA242 were all low, the area under the curve (AUC) of summary receiver operating characteristic curve was 0.62, 0.63 and 0.73, the sensitivity was 0.42, 0.27 and 0.36, respectively. The combined detection of CEA+CA19-9+CA242 significantly improved the pooled diagnostic accuracy (AUC: 0.92(95% CI: 0.89-0.94) and sensitivity: 0.75(95% CI: 0.65-0.83)), the specificity was mildly reduced (dropped from above 0.95 to 0.90(95% CI 0.87-0.93)). The Deek′s test indicated no publication bias. Conclusions:Combined detection of CEA+CA19-9+CA242 can significantly improve the diagnostic accuracy and sensitivity in screening colorectal cancer with a compromised specificity. However, due to the lack of data, whether it can meet the demand for opportunistic screening in the physical examination population needs to be confirmed.

Neck dissection(ND)is one of the main treatment methods for oral and maxillofacial malignancies.Although ND type is in con-stant improvement,but intraoperative peal-pull-push injury of the accessory nerve,muscle,muscle membrane,fascia and ligament induced shoulder syndrome(SS)is still a common postoperative complication,combined with the influence of radiochemotherapy,not only can cause pain,stiffness,numbness,limited dysfunction of shoulder neck and arm,but also may have serious impact on patient's life quality and phys-ical and mental health.At present,there is still a lack of a systematic evaluation and rehabilitation management program for postoperative SS of oral and maxillofacial malignant tumors.Based on the previous clinical practice and the current available evidence,refer to the relevant lit-erature at home and abroad,the experts in the field of maxillofacial tumor surgery and rehabilitation were invited to discuss,modify and reach a consenusus on the etiology,assessment diagnosis,differential diagnosis,rehabilitation strategy and prevention of SS,in order to provide clinical reference.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.

Objective To understand the respiratory protection competency of staff in hospitals.Methods Staff from six hospitals of different levels and characteristics in Beijing were selected,including doctors,nurses,medical technicians,and servicers,to conduct knowledge assessment on respiratory protection competency.According to exposure risks of respiratory infectious diseases,based on actual cases and daily work scenarios,content of respira-tory protection competency assessment was designed from three aspects:identification of respiratory infectious di-seases,transmission routes and corresponding protection requirements,as well as correct selection and use of masks.The assessment included 6,6,and 8 knowledge points respectively,with 20 knowledge points in total,all of which were choice questions.For multiple-choice questions,full marks,partial marks,and no mark were given respective-ly if all options were correct,partial options were correct and without incorrect options,and partial options were correct but with incorrect options.Difficulty and discrimination analyses on question of each knowledge point was conducted based on classical test theory.Results The respiratory protection competency knowledge assessment for 326 staff members at different risk levels in 6 hospitals showed that concerning the 20 knowledge points,more than 60％participants got full marks for 6 points,while the proportion of full marks for other questions was relatively low.Less than 10％participants got full marks for the following 5 knowledge points:types of airborne diseases,types of droplet-borne diseases,conventional measures for the prevention and control of healthcare-associated infec-tion with respiratory infectious diseases,indications for wearing respirators,and indications for wearing medical protective masks.Among the 20 knowledge questions,5,1,and 14 questions were relatively easy,medium,and difficult,respectively;6,1,4,and 9 questions were with discrimination levels of ≥0.4,0.30-0.39,0.20-0.29,and ≤0.19,respectively.Conclusion There is still much room for hospital staff to improve their respiratory protection competency,especially in the recognition of diseases with different transmission routes and the indications for wearing different types of masks.

Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) combined with lower cervical fracture is often categorized into unstable fracture, with a high incidence of neurological injury and a high rate of disability and morbidity. As factors such as shoulder occlusion may affect the accuracy of X-ray imaging diagnosis, it is often easily misdiagnosed at the primary diagnosis. Non-operative treatment has complications such as bone nonunion and the possibility of secondary neurological damage, while the timing, access and choice of surgical treatment are still controversial. Currently, there are no clinical practice guidelines for the treatment of AS combined with lower cervical fracture with or without dislocation. To this end, the Spinal Trauma Group of Orthopedics Branch of Chinese Medical Doctor Association organized experts to formulate Clinical guidelines for the treatment of ankylosing spondylitis combined with lower cervical fracture in adults ( version 2024) in accordance with the principles of evidence-based medicine, scientificity and practicality, in which 11 recommendations were put forward in terms of the diagnosis, imaging evaluation, typing and treatment, etc, to provide guidance for the diagnosis and treatment of AS combined with lower cervical fracture.

Objective:To evaluate the association between preoperative serum β 2-microglobulin (β 2MG) concentrations and postoperative delirium (POD) in elderly patients. Methods:The study selected patients who underwent knee or hip arthroplasty under spinal-epidural anesthesia on an elective basis at Qingdao Municipal Hospital from May 2021 to November 2022. The patients were divided into a POD group and a non-POD group based on the occurrence of POD. The study was conducted as part of the Perioperative Neurocognitive Impairment and Biomarkers Lifestyle Cohort, which was a nested case-control study. The study collected baseline data from two groups of patients and analyzed the differences between them. Logistic regression was used to identify the risk factors for POD. The stability of the regression model was tested using sensitivity analysis. The mediation model was used to examine whether cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) biomarkers mediated the relationship between β 2MG and POD. The receiver operating characteristic curve was drawn and the area under the curve was calculated to evaluate the accuracy of preoperative β 2MG concentrations and CSF biomarker concentration in predicting POD. Results:There were 57 cases in POD group and 449 cases in non-POD group. The results of logistic regression analysis showed that the increased β 2MG and CSF total tau protein (t-tau) concentrations were risk factors for POD, and the increased CSF β-amyloid 42 concentration was a protective factor for POD after adjustment for multiple confounders such as age, gender, education, Mini-Mental State Examination, history of hypertension and infusion volume ( P<0.05). The results of mediation analysis showed that the serum β 2MG′s effect on POD was partly mediated by t-tau (18.1%). The results of the receiver operating characteristic curve showed that the area under the curve of the β 2MG concentration combined with the CSF biomarker concentration was 0.742. Conclusions:Elevated preoperative serum β 2MG concentration is a risk factor for POD in elderly patients, and the relationship may be partly mediated by CSF t-tau.
