Abstract: To investigate the in vitro release, in vivo pharmacokinetics, and the in vitro-in vivo correlation of progesterone suspension injection, self-made progesterone suspension injection was taken as an example. The in vitro release curves of three different particle sizes of progesterone suspension injections were measured using paddle method and dialysis bag method. The in vivo pharmacokinetic characteristics of self-made progesterone suspension injection was studied on SD rats. The plasma concentration of self-made progesterone preparation was detected after intramuscular injection, and correlated with the in vitro release profiles obtained by the dialysis bag method after processing by Wagner-Nelson method. The results showed that when the in vitro release of three different particle sizes of progesterone suspension injections was measured by the paddle method, more than 85% was rapidly released within 20 min, while 85% cumulative release was reached at 40 h, 84 h and 120 h by dialysis bag method, respectively. The release rate obtained by the dialysis bag method was basically consistent with the in vivo release trend, with a correlation coefficient of >0.95, indicating a strong in vivo and in vitro correlation. This study provides some reference for the establishment of the in vitro and in vivo correlation of long-acting suspension injection.

Objective:To analyze the problems and risk factors of the investigator initiated out-of-range trial, propose countermeasures and suggestions, and provide reference for improving project standardization and quality, and preventing research risks.Methods:Through literature analysis and field research, combined with personal work experience, this study sorted and analyzed the problems in the regulation of out-of-range IIT conducted in hospital, and proposed countermeasures.Results:Through analysis, it was found that the current out-of-range IIT trial in China faces 5 problems: imperfect management regulations, incomplete IIT management organizational system in medical institutions, insufficient scientificity of research protocols, insufficient ethical review, and insufficient research funds.Conclusions:Out-of-range IIT is of great significance in promoting pharmaceutical innovation. Standardized management of such projects requires the efforts of regulatory authorities, medical institutions, and ethics committees, as well as the continuous improvement of researchers' awareness and research capabilities to promote the orderly, high-quality, and rapid development of IIT. Based on the above analysis, this article proposed countermeasures and suggestions: at the national level, summarize practical experience from various regions as soon as possible, improve IIT management regulations and technical guidelines; establishing clinical research and design guidance departments in medical institutions and strengthening scientific review; the ethics committee formulates ethical review standards and processes for out-of-range IIT projects to enhance review capabilities; establish a normalized clinical research training mechanism in hospitals; expand and standardize the channels for IIT funding.

Objective:To study the risk factors of failure using nasal high frequency oscillatory ventilation (nHFOV) as initial therapy in the treatment of respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) in very low birth weight infants (VLBWIs).Methods:From January 2018 to December 2021, VLBWIs with RDS initially supported by nHFOV in NICU of our hospital were retrospectively analyzed. They were assigned into success and failure groups according to the ventilation efficacy. Demographic data and clinical outcomes of the two groups were compared. Risk factors of initial nHFOV failure were analyzed using binary Logistic regression method.Results:A total of 135 infants were included, including 103 in the success group and 32 in the failure group. The initial nHFOV failure rate was 23.7%. The failure group had lower pH (7.26±0.09 vs. 7.33±0.08) and PaO 2 [61.0 (49.6, 77.2) mmHg vs. 83.6 (64.4, 99.0) mmHg] than the success group ( P<0.05) and higher PaCO 2 than the success group [49.0 (42.3, 58.1) mmHg vs. 43.4 (36.0, 50.0) mmHg] ( P<0.05). Using PaCO 2 as predictor, the area under the curve (AUC) was 0.682 (95% CI 0.575-0.788) and the cut-off value was 44.8 mmHg for nHFOV failure and the AUC was 0.716 (95% CI 0.615-0.817) and the cut-off value was 67.1 mmHg for nHFOV success. The incidences of early onset sepsis (EOS), shock within 3 d and hemodynamically significant patent ductus arteriosus (hsPDA) in the failure group were significantly higher than the success group (40.6% vs. 7.8%, 53.1% vs. 2.9%, 31.3% vs. 13.6%, P<0.05, respectively). Binary logistic regression analysis found that PaO 2<67.1 mmHg ( OR=5.458,95% CI 1.730-17.220) on the first blood gas analysis and shock within 3 d ( OR=26.585,95% CI 3.854-183.396) were independent risk factors for initial nHFOV failure ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The failure of initial nHFOV is correlated with the first blood gas parameters, EOS, hsPDA and shock within 3 d. Shock within 3 d and low PaO 2(<67.1 mmHg) were independent risk factors for initial nHFOV failure.

Objective:To analyze post-discharge coping difficulty of delivery women based on social ecosystem theory.Methods:From March to May 2022, 23 delivery women from Affiliated Hospital of Guilin Medical University were selected as research objects by the purpose sampling method. The phenomenological research method was used to conduct face-to-face semi-structured interview. The content analysis method was used to analyze the data and extract the theme.Results:A total of 3 themes and 11 sub-themes were extracted. The micro level included 1 theme, namely care stress and self recovery problems coexist, including difficulty in breastfeeding, feeling powerless to raise children, anxiety, disturbance in body recovery of delivery women, prominent sense of sleep deprivation, insufficient knowledge of infant care and body recovery. The mesoscopic level included 1 theme, namely changes in life atmosphere, including caregiver relationship conflict, lack of family support and sense of connection. The macro level included 1 theme, namely interaction of social environment, including living environment not meeting expectations, sense of economic burden, expectation of instant professional guidance.Conclusions:The post-discharge coping difficulty of delivery women is complex and varied. Medical staff should use information technology, family synchronous empowerment, social worker intervention and other methods to meet the needs of delivery women, reduce their post-discharge coping difficulties.

In recent years, artificial intelligence (AI) and oncology are rapidly integrated and developed, gradually moving towards clinical application. In China, the incidence and mortality of gastric cancer rank first among various tumors. The development of AI technologies such as convolutional neural network, narrow-band imaging magnifying endoscope, full-field digital section and survival circulation network has the potential to be applied to early screening, auxiliary diagnosis, pathological diagnosis, prognosis analysis, as well as individualized diagnosis and treatment process of gastric cancer. However, AI medical treatment still has many problems such as insufficient data sample size and difficulty in integration. Reasonable design and application of AI technology is expected to provide more scientific and accurate diagnosis and treatment for patients with gastric cancer, improve the overall survival rate and quality of life of patients with gastric cancer, and achieve more breakthroughs in the medical field.

Objective:To study the safety and feasibility of application of delayed umbilical cord clamping (DCC) in very preterm and extremely preterm infants.Methods:Based on the previous improvement projects of temperature management and respiratory support, we conducted a prospective study on the effect of umbilical cord clamping quality improvement project using the clinical data of very preterm and extremely preterm infants admitted to Guangdong Maternal and Child Health Hospital. The infants admitted from July to December 2020 who underwent immediate umbilical cord clamping (ICC) were included in the ICC group, and the infants admitted from January to June 2021 who underwent DCC were involved in the DCC group. The incidence of asphyxia, hypothermia, endotracheal intubation within 24 h after birth, endotracheal intubation within 72 h after birth, bronchopulmonary dysplasia and other complications, mechanical ventilation duration and total oxygen therapy duration were compared between the two groups.Results:A total of 45 cases were included in ICC group and 54 cases in DCC group. The gestational age of the two groups was (29.3±1.7) weeks and (29.6±1.4) weeks, and the birth weight was (1 250±332) g and (1 257±306) g. The differences were not statistically significant ( P>0.05). There were no significant differences between the two groups in the incidence of asphyxia, hypothermia, bronchopulmonary dysplasia and other complications related to preterm infants, tracheal intubation rates within 24 and 72 h, and the neonatal temperature at admission to NICU ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Delayed umbilical cord clamping does not increase the risks of asphyxia, hypothermia or invasive respiratory support in very preterm and extremely preterm infants.

BACKGROUND: Vaccination has been shown effective in controlling the global coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic and reducing severe cases. This study was to assess the flare and change in disease activity after COVID-19 vaccination in patients with stable rheumatoid arthritis (RA). METHODS: A prospective cohort of RA patients in remission or with low disease activity was divided into a vaccination group and a non-vaccination group based on their COVID-19 vaccination status. Each of them was examined every 3 to 6 months. In the vaccination group, disease activity was compared before and after vaccination. The rates of flare defined as disease activity scores based on 28-joint count (DAS28) >3.2 with ΔDAS28 ≥0.6 were compared between vaccination and non-vaccination groups. RESULTS: A total of 202 eligible RA patients were enrolled. Of these, 98 patients received no vaccine shot (non-vaccination group), and 104 patients received two doses of vaccine (vaccination group). The median time interval from pre-vaccination visit to the first immunization and from the second dose of vaccine to post-vaccination visit was 67 days and 83 days, respectively. The disease activity scores at pre-vaccination and post-vaccination visits in the vaccination group patients were similar. At enrollment, gender, RA disease course, seropositivity, and disease activity were comparable across the two groups. Flare was observed in five (4.8%) of the vaccination group patients and nine (9.2%) of the non-vaccination group patients at post-vaccination assessment ( P  = 0.221). In terms of safety, 29 (27.9%) patients experienced adverse events (AEs) after vaccination. No serious AEs occurred. CONCLUSIONS COVID-19 vaccinations had no significant effect on disease activity or risk of flare in RA patients in remission or with low disease activity. Patients with stable RA should be encouraged to receive the COVID-19 vaccination.
