In this work,near infrared carbon quantum dots(NIR-CDs)were synthesized by hydrothermal method using biomass material Clausena lansium leaves.The synthesized NIR-CDs emitted maximum fluorescence signal at 677 nm,which was independent of excitation wavelength.The characterization results showed that there were abundant groups on the surface of NIR-CDs.Pd2+could form non-fluorescent compounds with the surface groups of NIR-CDs,resulting in fluorescence quenching(Fluorescence signal was denoted as F0).Because chlorpromazine hydrochloride(CPZ)parent nucleus contained unoxidized S atom,CPZ could form stable colored complex with Pd2+under acidic conditions.In the presence of CPZ,Pd2+dissociated from the surface of NIR-CDs and bonded with CPZ,so that the fluorescence signal could be restored(Fluorescence signal was denoted as F).An"on-off-on"fluorescence sensor was thus constructed.The fluorescence signal recovery value of NIR-CDs(△F=F-F0)showed a good linear relationship with the concentration of CPZ in the range of 5.68-28.43 μg/mL,and the detection limit(3σ)was 0.078 μg/mL.The sensor was applied to determination of CPZ in pharmaceutical preparations,and the recoveries were 94％-106％.The developed fluorescence sensor was expected to be used in quality control of actual pharmaceutical preparations.

Objective To explore the effects of transverse cervical artery related skin flaps in repairing skin soft tissue defects in the neck and shoulder.Methods A total of 13 patients with soft tissue defects in neck and shoulder admitted to Linyi People's Hospital from January 2018 to January 2022 were selected.The wounds of patients were repaired with transverse cervical artery related skin flaps,and the donor area was repaired with direct suturing and/or full-thick skin graft from the inguinal area.The survival,appearance and texture of the flap after surgery were recorded.The wound healing in the donor area and the survival of the grafted skin were observed.The follow-up was conducted for 5 to 12 months,and the appearance of the grafted flap and the recovery of function in the surgical area were observed.Results The flaps had good survival in the first stage after surgery,the color and texture of the flap matched well with the surrounding tissue,and the wound healing in the donor area was good.During the follow-up,the function and appearance of neck and shoulder for patients recovered well.Conclusion The advantages of transverse cervical artery related skin flaps in repairing skin soft tissue defects in the neck and shoulder is that the color and texture of the flap matched well with the surrounding tissue,with reliable blood circulation,and the appearance and postoperative function recover well,which is worthy of promotion and application in clinic.

Objective:To analyze the neuropsychological characteristics of patients with chronic heart failure (CHF) complicated by mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and investigate the factors that influence the development of CHF complicated by MCI.Methods:A case-control study was conducted to retrospectively analyze the clinical data of 98 patients with CHF admitted to Baoji Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine from January 2019 to October 2020. Based on the Petersen MCI screening criteria, the patients were divided into the MCI group ( n = 48) and the normal cognitive group (NC group, n = 50). The neuropsychological characteristics were analyzed using the Mini-Mental State Examination and the Montreal Cognitive Assessment. The cognitive domain scores of the two groups were tested and compared. Logistic regression analysis was performed to identify the factors influencing the development of CHF complicated by MCI. Results:The total scores of the Mini-Mental State Examination and the Montreal Cognitive Assessment in the NC group were 28.45 ± 1.10 and 27.90 ± 1.35, respectively, which were significantly higher than those in the MCI group (23.50 ± 2.25, 22.95 ± 1.35, t = 13.92, 18.15, both P < 0.001). In addition, the NC group outperformed the MCI group in terms of the number of correct readings, time taken, attention, visuospatial function, memory, and language function ( t = 2.94, 7.29, 3.15, 9.90, 14.69, 4.87, all P < 0.01). The MCI group had a greater proportion of patients who were aged ≥ 65 years, had an education level of junior high school or below, experienced sleep disorders, and were classified as New York Heart Association (NYHA) functional class Ⅲ, compared with the NC group ( χ2 = 4.18, 4.08, 6.88, 4.70, all P < 0.05). Additionally, the cardiac output was lower in the MCI group than in the NC group ( t = 4.70, P < 0.05). Logistic regression analysis revealed that age ≥ 65 years ( OR = 3.904, 95% CI: 1.530-9.963), education level of junior high school or below ( OR = 2.565, 95% CI: 1.571-4.187), sleep disorders ( OR = 3.080, 95% CI: 1.445-6.564), and low cardiac output ( OR = 1.784, 95% CI: 1.168-2.725) were independent risk factors for CHF complicated by MCI ( P < 0.05). Conclusions:Patients with CHF complicated by MCI are more likely to experience impairments in visuospatial function, executive function, attention, language function, and memory. Independent risk factors for CHF complicated by MCI include age ≥ 65 years, education level of junior high school or below, sleep disorders, and low cardiac output.

Objective To monitor the susceptibility of clinical isolates to antimicrobial agents in healthcare facilities in major regions of China in 2023.Methods Clinical isolates collected from 73 hospitals across China were tested for antimicrobial susceptibility using a unified protocol based on disc diffusion method or automated testing systems.Results were interpreted using the 2023 Clinical & Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) breakpoints.Results A total of 445199 clinical isolates were collected in 2023,of which 29.0％ were gram-positive and 71.0％ were gram-negative.The prevalence of methicillin-resistant strains in Staphylococcus aureus,Staphylococcus epidermidis and other coagulase-negative Staphylococcus species (excluding Staphylococcus pseudintermedius and Staphylococcus schleiferi) (MRSA,MRSE and MRCNS) was 29.6％,81.9％ and 78.5％,respectively.Methicillin-resistant strains showed significantly higher resistance rates to most antimicrobial agents than methicillin-susceptible strains (MSSA,MSSE and MSCNS).Overall,92.9％ of MRSA strains were susceptible to trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole and 91.4％ of MRSE strains were susceptible to rifampicin.No vancomycin-resistant strains were found.Enterococcus faecalis had significantly lower resistance rates to most antimicrobial agents tested than Enterococcus faecium.A few vancomycin-resistant strains were identified in both E.faecalis and E.faecium.The prevalence of penicillin-susceptible Streptococcus pneumoniae was 93.1％ in the isolates from children and and 95.9％ in the isolates from adults.The resistance rate to carbapenems was lower than 15.0％ for most Enterobacterales species except for Klebsiella,22.5％ and 23.6％ of which were resistant to imipenem and meropenem,respectively .Most Enterobacterales isolates were highly susceptible to tigecycline,colistin and polymyxin B,with resistance rates ranging from 0.6％ to 10.0％.The resistance rate to imipenem and meropenem was 21.9％ and 17.4％ for Pseudomonas aeruginosa,respectively,and 67.5％ and 68.1％ for Acinetobacter baumannii,respectively.Conclusions Increasing resistance to the commonly used antimicrobial agents is still observed in clinical bacterial isolates.However,the prevalence of important crabapenem-resistant organisms such as crabapenem-resistant K.pneumoniae,P.aeruginosa,and A.baumannii showed a slightly decreasing trend.This finding suggests that strengthening bacterial resistance surveillance and multidisciplinary linkage are important for preventing the occurrence and development of bacterial resistance.

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 investigate the efficacy of arthroscopic anatomical reconstruction of the ligament with autologous semitendinosus tendon in the treatment of chronic lateral ankle instability (CLAI) complicated with multiple ligament laxity.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted to analyze the 34 patients with CLAI plus multiple ligament laxity who had been treated at Foot and Ankle Surgery Center, The Fourth Hospital of Wuhan from March 2014 to December 2021. They were 8 males and 26 females with an age of (32.2±5.6) years. The patients were divided into 2 groups based on their treatment methods. A reconstruction group of 20 cases were treated by arthroscopic reconstruction of the ligament with autologous semitendinosus tendon while a repair group of 14 cases treated by arthroscopic repair of the ligament with the modified Brostr?m procedure. The 2 groups were compared in terms of surgical time, and the American Orthopaedic Foot & Ankle Society (AOFAS) ankle-hindfoot score, visual analog scale (VAS) pain score, talar tilt (TT), anterior translation of the talus (ATT), and complications at the last follow-up.Results:The 2 groups were comparable because there were no statistically significant differences in the general data, AOFAS ankle-hindfoot score, VAS pain score, TT, or ATT before surgery between the 2 groups ( P > 0.05). The surgical time for the reconstruction group [(97.5±11.4) min] was significantly longer than that for the repair group [(53.6±10.7) min] ( P < 0.05). All the 34 patients were followed up for (35.4±3.5) months. The TT, ATT, AOFAS ankle-hindfoot score, and VAS pain score at the last follow-up were all significantly improved compared with the preoperative values in both groups ( P < 0.05). The AOFAS ankle-hindfoot score [(90.6±3.6) points], TT (6.0°±1.5°), and ATT [(3.6±1.4) mm] at the last follow-up in the reconstruction group were all significantly better than those in the repair group [(84.1±11.0) points, 8.6°±4.3°, and (6.6±4.1) mm] ( P < 0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in the VAS pain score between the 2 groups at the last follow-up ( P > 0.05). All incisions healed at one stage without such complications as nerve or vascular injury. CLAI recurrence occurred in 5 cases in the repair group, significant worse than that in the reconstruction group (no recurrence) ( P=0.015). Conclusion:In the treatment of CLAI complicated with multiple ligament laxity, arthroscopic anatomical reconstruction of the ligament with autologous semitendinosus tendon can effectively improve ankle function, enhance ankle stability, and reduce recurrence of the condition.

Purpose: Cavernous nerve injury induced erectile dysfunction (ED) is a refractory complication with high incidence in person under radical prostatectomy. Studies have shown that relaxin-2 (RLX-2) plays a vital role of endothelial protection, vasodilation, anti-fibrosis and neuroprotection in a variety of diseases. However, whether penile cavernous erection can benefit from RLX-2 remains unknown. The purpose of the experiment was to explore the effects of RLX-2 on ED in the rat suffering with bilateral cavernous nerve injury (BCNI). Materials and Methods: The rats were divided into three groups: Sham group was underwent sham operation, BCNI+RLX group or BCNI group was underwent bilateral cavernous nerve crush and then randomly treated with RLX-2 (0.4 mg/kg/d) or saline by continuous administration using a subcutaneously implanted micro pump for 4 weeks respectively. Then, erectile function was evaluated by electrical stimulation of cavernous nerves. Cavernous nerves and penile tissues and were collected for histological evaluation. Results: Erectile function of rats with BCNI was partially improved after RLX-2 treatment. The BCNI group had lower expression of relaxin family peptide receptor (RXFP) 1, p-AKT/AKT, p-eNOS/eNOS ratios than sham operation rats, but RLX-2 could partially reversed these changes. Histologically, the BCNI+RLX group had a significant effect on preservation of neurofilament, neuronal glial antigen 2 of penile tissue and nNOS of cavernous nerves when compared with BCNI group. RLX-2 could inhibited the lever of BCNI induced corporal fibrosis and apoptosis via regulating TGFβ1-Smad2/3-CTGF pathway and the expression of Bax/Bcl-2 ratio, caspase3. Conclusions RLX-2 could improve erectile function of BCNI rats by protecting cavernous nerve and endothelial function and suppressing corporal fibrosis and apoptosis via RXFP1 and AKT/eNOS pathway. Our findings may provide a promising treatment for refractory BCNI induced ED.
