Turning to critical illness is a common stage of various diseases and injuries before death. Patients usually have complex health conditions, while the treatment process involves a wide range of content, along with high requirements for doctor′s professionalism and multi-specialty teamwork, as well as a great demand for time-sensitive treatments. However, this is not matched with critical care professionals and the current state of medical care in China. Telemedicine, which shortens the distance of medical professionals and the gap of disease diagnosis and treatments in various regions through electronic information, can effectively solve the current problem. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a standardized, high-quality visualization telemedicine round system .Therefore, experts have been organized to search domestic and foreign literature on telemedicine round for critically ill patients and to form this consensus based on clinical experiences so as to further improve the level of critical care treatments in regions.

OBJECTIVE:
Therapeutic angiogenesis has become a promising approach for treating ischemic heart disease (IHD). The present study aims to investigate the effects of Qishen Granule (QSG) on angiogenesis in myocardial ischemia (MI) and the potential mechanism.
METHODS:
In vivo study was conducted on rat model of myocardial infarction. QSG was performed daily at a dose of 2.352 g/kg for four weeks. Cardiac function was assessed by echocardiogram and pro-angiogenic effects were evaluated by Laser Doppler and CD31 expression. Oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD) was applied in cultured human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). Cell viability, wound healing and tube formation assay were used to test functions of HUVECs. ELISA and Western blots were used to assess protein expressions of bone morphogenetic protein 2-delta-like 4-notch homolog 1 (BMP2-Dll4-Notch1) signaling pathway.
RESULTS:
The results showed that QSG improved heart function, cardiac blood flow and microvessel density in myocardial ischemic rats. In vitro, QSG protected HUVECs by promoting the cell viability and tube formation. QSG upregulated bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP2) and downregulated delta-like 4 (Dll4) and notch homolog 1 (Notch1) expressions both in rats and HUVECs.
CONCLUSION
QSG protected against MI by promoting angiogenesis through BMP2-Dll4-Notch1 pathway. BMP2 might be a promising therapeutic target for IHD.

Objective:To analyze the risk factors of stress perception in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) , and construct and validate a risk prediction model for health risk stress perception in SLE patients.Methods:This study is a cross-sectional study. From October 2020 to March 2021, totals of 310 SLE inpatients and outpatients in the Department of Rheumatology and Immunology from 4 general hospitals in Anhui Province were selected as the modeling object. According to the patients' stress perception score, they were divided into the group with health risk stress ( n=132) and the group without health risk stress ( n=178) . The general data, SLE disease activity, general self-efficacy, emotional intelligence, resilience, sleep disturbance, anxiety, depression were compared between the two groups, and independent risk factors were screened out and Logistic regression was used to construct a risk prediction model. Hosmer-Lemeshow and receiver operator characteristic curve (ROC) area were used to test the fit and prediction effect of the model, respectively, and 206 patients were included for model validation. Results:Binary Logistic regression analysis showed that SLE disease activity, resilience, anxiety, payment type, and family monthly income were the influencing factors of stress perception in SLE patients, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05) . Hosmer-Lemeshow fit test showed χ 2=6.123, P=0.633. Besides, the area under the ROC, maximum Youden index, predictive critical value, sensitivity and specificity were 0.903, 0.660, 0.497, 0.795 and 0.865 respectively. Conclusions:This study is based on five independent risk factors of SLE patients' stress perception, namely SLE disease activity, resilience, anxiety, payment type, and family monthly income. The risk prediction model has good sensitivity and specificity, which can provide a reference for clinical assessment of health risk stress perception in SLE patients.
