Objective:To explore the construction requirements and solutions for a digital full-process management platform for Investigator-Initiated Trials (IIT) in pediatrics in China.Methods:By reviewing literature, the current status and highlights of pediatric IIT digital management systems in Europe and the United States were analyzed. The challenges faced in building a digital full-process management platform for pediatric IIT in China were summarized. The exploration and implementation achievements of our hospital in platform construction were introduced, and future construction priorities were proposed based on practical considerations.Results:The construction and application of digital full-process management platforms for pediatric IIT in Europe and the United States were relatively mature, providing comprehensive digital support for pediatric IIT research, ranging from project management to research design implementation, multi-center data interoperability, and personnel training. In China, the pediatric IIT digital management platform was still under construction, with main challenges including the formulation of construction plans based on hospital-specific conditions, data standardization, and remote recruitment and follow-up platforms.Conclusions:Considering the current status of pediatric IIT digital full-process management systems both domestically and internationally, efforts should be made to further strengthen data standardization, remote subject management, and digital pediatric IIT training from both policy and technical perspectives. This will provide one-stop services and management for projects and researchers, promoting the development of pediatric medical research.

Objective:To explore the need for parental involvement in treatment decision-making for children with type 1 diabetes mellitus, so as to provide basis for medical and nursing staff to formulate targeted intervention strategies.Methods:This was a qualitative study. From April to May 2024, 15 parents of children with type 1 diabetes mellitus admitted to the Department of Endocrine Genetics and Metabolism at Children's Hospital of Soochow University were selected as research subjects for face-to-face semi-structured interviews. Inductive content analysis was used for data analysis.Results:Among the 15 children patients, there were 4 males and 11 females, with an age of (37.61±5.93) years old. Four themes were extracted, including the need for decision-making involvement and expression, the need for diversity decision-making information, the need for multi-channel decision-making communication and the need for diversified decision-making support.Conclusions:Medical and nursing staff should pay attention to decision-making needs of the parents of children with type 1 diabetes when they participate in treatment decision-making, and improve their parents' decision-making self-efficacy and promote their decision-making involvement by adopting diversified decision-making aids and effective decision-making communication.

Objective:To develop a scale on hospice care perception and attitude in family members of critically ill patients, so as to provide a valid tool for measuring the cognition and attitude level of hospice care among family members of critically ill patients.Methods:During May 2022 to 2023, an initial pool of scale entries was formed through the literature analysis method and group discussion. The scale′s first draft was formed by applying the Delphi correspondence method and a small sample pre-survey. The developed scale was administered to 98 family members of critically ill patients in Shandong Provincial Hospital Affiliated to Shandong First Medical University to test the reliability and validity of scale.Results:The results of exploratory factor analysis extracted 5 explanatory factors with a cumulative contribution rate of 77.65%. The developed Hospice Care Perceptions and Attitudes of Families of Critically Ill Patients Scale had 19 items. The content validity of 0.922 and a Cronbach alpha coefficient of 0.816 showed good validity and reliability.Conclusions:The scale has sufficient reliability and can be used to assess cognitive and attitudinal levels of hospice care in family members of critically ill patients.

BACKGROUND:During tissue repair and regeneration,macrophages exhibit multiple activities such as promoting inflammation,anti-inflammation,fibrosis,and wound healing at various stages of tissue damage.The heterogeneity and balanced polarization of macrophages are decisive in organ repair. OBJECTIVE:To explore the research hotspots and development trends in the field of macrophage polarization in tissue repair through visualization analysis methods,as well as the research level of global scientific and clinical workers in this field. METHODS:Using bibliometric analysis methods,this study employed Citespace literature visualization analysis software and VOSviewer tools,retrieving related literature from 2013 to 2023 in the Web of Science Core Collection's Science Citation Index Expanded(SCI-Expanded)and Social Sciences Citation Index Expanded(SSCI-Expanded)databases.The analysis results were presented in a dynamic map format,revealing the main trends and focuses of the research. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The number of publications in this field had dramatically increased from 2013 to 2023,with a significant rise starting in 2017.Chinese researchers had the highest number of publications,with 642 papers,while American researchers began focusing on this field early on.Professor Elisseeff Hennifer H had made a substantial contribution to the research in this area.Shanghai Jiao Tong University had produced the most publications.In recent years,keywords such as"hyaluronic acid"and"regulation"had been prevalent.Macrophage polarization research in tissue repair primarily concentrates on its multifunctional regulatory mechanisms,interactions with other cell types,and its behavior under specific pathological conditions.The main research areas include the role of macrophages in wound healing,cardiovascular diseases,chronic inflammation,tumor microenvironments,and regenerative medicine.A deeper understanding of the multifunctionality and polarization mechanisms of macrophages can lead to the development of new therapeutic strategies to enhance tissue repair and regeneration,thereby improving patient treatment outcomes.

Objective:To explore the medication law of TCM in the treatment of superficial vein thrombosis (SVT) using data mining.Methods:Literature about TCM in the treatment of SVT was retrieved from CNKI, Wanfang Data, and VIP from the establishment of the databases to November 27th, 2022. WPS 12.1.0.15990 was used to conduct statistical analysis on drug frequency, property and taste and meridian. The association rules and systematic clustering were carried out by SPSS Modeler 18.0 and SPSS Statistics 25.0. Finally the medication law of TCM in the treatment of SVT was summarized and refined.Results:A total of 281 articles were included, including 245 internal prescriptions with 182 kinds of Chinese materia medica, and 123 external prescriptions with 188 kinds of Chinese materia medica. The high frequency used oral Chinese materia medica were mainly Angelicae Sinensis Radix, Paeoniae Radix Rubra, Cyathulae Radix, while the high frequency drugs used externally mainly included Rhei Radix et Rhizoma, Phellodendri Chinensis Cortex, Carthami Flos. These Chinese materia medica were mainly heat-clearing and blood-stasis activators drugs. The medicinal properties of high frequency oral Chinese materia medica were mainly slightly cold, flat and cold,and the tastes were mainly bitter and sweet, and the meridian were mainly liver, heart, spleen and lung. The medicinal properties of high-frequency external Chinese materia medica were mainly cold and warm, and the tastes were mainly bitter and pungent, and the meridian were mainly liver, heart, spleen and stomach. There were 22 rules of association for internal TCM and 7 for external use. The clustering analysis divided oral drugs into 5 categories and topical drugs into 4 categories.Conclusion:TCM treatment of SVT is based on clearing heat, activating blood circulation and resolving blood stasis, and matching with the syndromes, which reflects the holistic concept of TCM and the perspective of syndrome differentiation and treatment.

A 36-year-old healthy male served as an allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell donor was given recombinant human granulocyte colony-stimulating factor injection (rhG-CSF) 300 μg by subcutaneous injection once daily for 5 consecutive days. On day 4 of stem cell mobilization, peripheral stem cell collection was performed and rhG-CSF 250 μg was given in addition. The donor experienced dry cough, dyspnea, and difficulty breathing on the next day. Chest CT scan showed diffuse patchy and nodular shadows in both lungs, and relevant tests excluded bacterial/viral infection of the lungs and heart failure. It was considered to be acute lung injury caused by rhG-CSF. After giving glucocorticoids and symptomatic treatments, the symptoms gradually subsided, and the peripheral blood stem cell collection was successful. In the continuing treatment of glucocorticoids, the symptoms of the donor were further improved, and chest CT scan showed marked improvement. At a 3 years of follow-up, the donor' work and life were normal, and no lung discomfort symptoms recurred.
