With the rapid advancement of hemodynamic indices and monitoring technologies, their classification methods and application processes have become increasingly complex. Currently, no unified standard hasbeen established, making it difficult to fully meet the clinical requirements for hemodynamic management. To assist in hemodynamic monitoring assessment and therapeutic decision-making in critically ill patients, the Critical Hemodynamic Therapy Collaborative Group, in conjunction with the Critical Ultrasound Study Group, has jointly developed the Standard for the Application of Hemodynamic Monitoring Techniques in Critical Care. The first part of this standard systematically categorizes hemodynamic indicators into flow indicators, pressure and its derivative indicators, and tissue perfusion indicators, while elaborating on the clinical application of each. The second part establishes a standardized clinical implementation pathway for hemodynamic monitoring. It proposes a tiered monitoring strategy-comprising basic, advanced, indication-specific, and special scenario monitoring-tailored to different clinical settings. It emphasizes the central role of critical care ultrasound across all levels of monitoring and establishes hemodynamic assessment standards for organs such as the brain, kidneys, and gastrointestinal tract. This standard aims to provide a unified framework for clinical practice, teaching, training, and research in critical care medicine, thereby promoting standardized development within the discipline.

AIM To investigate the effects of Qinghua Zhixie Formula on improving symptoms of a rat model of diarrhea-predominant irritable bowel syndrome(IBS-D)and its impact on the polarization of M1/M2 macrophages.METHODS The SD rats were randomly divided into the blank group,the model group,the pirenzepine group(20 mg/kg),and the low-dose and high-dose Qinghua Zhixie Formula groups(13.64,27.29 g/kg),with 10 rats in each group.An IBS-D rat model was established using chronic restraint stress combined with gavage of senna leaf decoction.Each group underwent corresponding medication for 14 days.The rats had their changes of food intakes,stool characteristics,and body weight observed;their abdominal withdrawal reflex(AWR)measured to assess the intestinal pain sensitivity;their histopathological changes in the colon mucosa observed using HE staining;their colon mucosa apoptosis assessed using TUNEL staining;their colon expressions of ZO-1,Occludin and Nrf2 proteins detected using immunofluorescence staining;their ratio of M1/M2 macrophages in mesenteric lymph nodes measured by Flow cytometry;and their colon protein expressions of Nrf2,HO-1,p-IκBα and p-P65 analyzed by Western blot.RESULTS Compared with the model group,the groups intervened with Qinghua Zhixie Formula showed increased body weight and AWR pain threshold(P＜0.05,P＜0.01);generally intact colon tissue structure with orderly arrangement of epithelial cells and no significant cell degeneration or shedding;enhanced fluorescence intensity of colon ZO-1 and Occludin proteins(P＜0.05,P＜0.01);reduced apoptosis rate of colon tissue cells(P＜0.05,P＜0.01);more polarized M2 phenotype of macrophages in mesenteric lymph nodes(P＜0.05,P＜0.01);increased protein expressions of colon Nrf2 and HO-1(P＜0.05,P＜0.01);and decreased expressions of p-IKBα/IKBα and p-P65/P65(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).CONCLUSION Qinghua Zhixie Formula can improve the function of the intestinal epithelial mucosal barrier in the IBS-D rat models,and this may be related to the modulation of macrophage polarization toward the M2 phenotype via activation of the Nrf2/HO-1 signaling pathway and inhibited activation of NF-κB signaling pathway.

TAFRO syndrome is a systemic inflammatory disease with unknown etiology.It has low incidence rate and progresses rapidly,which poses a significant challenge for clinicians to make a timely diagnosis and provide reasonable treatment.This article retrospectively analyzed a 65-year-old male patient with iMCD-TAFRO admitted to Minhang Hospital,Fudan University,and visited the Department of Nephrology due to bilateral lower limb edema.The patient exhibited systemic edema,fever,and multiple enlarged lymph nodes.A comprehensive examination showed thrombocytopenia,renal dysfunction,elevated CRP levels,multiple serosal fluid accumulations,and bone marrow reticulin fibrosis.For further diagnosis and treatment,he visited the Hematology Clinic of Zhongshan Hospital,Fudan University.Based on the clinical manifestations,the diagnosis of TAFRO syndrome was considered.After further lymph node pathological consultation,the diagnosis was confirmed as idiopathic multicentric Castleman disease(iMCD)-TAFRO syndrome.Later,the patient was transferred to the hematology department of Minhang Hospital,Fudan University.After 15 days of treatment with methylprednisolone,cyclosporine A,rituximab,and thrombopoietin,there was no significant improvement in the condition.Due to personal reasons,the patient discontinued further treatment and passed away 2 weeks later.

Objective To explore the factors leading to early admission for delivery among low-risk and full-term primiparas from both the perspectives of pregnant women and healthcare professionals,and to formulate targeted interventions for reference in ameliorating early admission trend among these primiparas.Methods Using purposeful sampling,we enrolled 11 medical staff members and 13 pregnant women from the Department of Obstetrics,Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital,Fudan University for semi-structured in-depth interviews.Content analysis was utilized to organize and analyze the collected data.Results From the perspective of pregnant women,the reasons were categorized into personal and environmental factors.Personal factors included cognition related to delivery and variability in the perception of labor contraction pain.Environmental factors included the difficulty in verifying the authenticity of labor-related information on the internet,the transmission of anxiety among family members,the convenience of obtaining medical resources,the lack of clear medical advice,and limited access to auxiliary equipment resources.From the perspective of healthcare professionals,the reasons were categorized into three aspects:factors related to pregnant women,i.e.,anxiety about delivery and fear of unknown pain during delivery;factors related to medical staff,i.e.,differences in medical practice and the provision of excessive information with insufficient pertinence in education;and objective factors,i.e.,primiparas were incapable of utilizing objective criteria to discern the start of delivery,and the convenience of accessing medical resources.Conclusion Factors leading to early admission for delivery among low-risk and full-term primiparas are personal factors,environmental factors,factors related to medical staff,and objective factors.To standardize the delivery admission timing,enhance prenatal health education,and develop outpatient support system will help assisting pregnant women in choosing an appropriate time for hospital admission.

Objective:To analyze vaginal microecological changes in patients with vaginal infectious diseases and their correlation with human papillomavirus (HPV) infection.Methods:A case-control study was conducted involving 416 patients who visited the Gynecology Outpatient Department and the Cervical Disease Clinic at Yongkang Maternity and Child Care Hospital between December 2022 and December 2023. All patients underwent testing for vaginal microecology and HPV to evaluate the prevalence of vaginal infectious diseases and HPV infection. Vaginal microecological indicators were compared between patients with vaginal infections and those without identifiable pathogenic bacterial dysbiosis. The indicators included microbial density, lactobacilli levels, pH, hydrogen peroxide levels, abnormal leukocyte esterase, and the grading of vaginal lactobacilli. Additionally, the HPV infection status was compared among patients with different vaginal microecological environments, and the correlation between vaginal infections and HPV infections was analyzed.Results:In a study involving 416 participants, 216 were diagnosed with vaginal infections, with an incidence rate of 51.92% (216/416). Among these cases, 118 were classified as a single infection, accounting for 54.63% (118/216), while 98 were identified as mixed infections, accounting for 45.37% (98/216). The rate of HPV infection among the 216 patients with vaginal infectious diseases was 37.04% (80/216). This rate was significantly higher than the 15.31% (30/196) observed in patients without identifiable pathogenic bacterial dysbiosis ( χ2 = 24.79, P < 0.001). Patients with vaginal infectious diseases also displayed elevated rates of abnormal lactobacilli levels, abnormal pH, abnormal leukocyte esterase, and abnormal lactobacilli grading, with rates of 59.26%, 86.57%, 72.69%, and 57.41%, respectively. In comparison, patients without identifiable pathogenic dysbiosis had rates of 31.12%, 18.88%, 51.53%, and 34.18%, respectively. All differences were statistically significant ( χ2 = 32.76, 86.83, 19.64, 22.28, all P < 0.001). Additionally, significant differences in HPV infection rates were observed among patients who tested positive for bacterial vaginosis, vulvovaginal candidiasis, and trichomoniasis when compared to those who tested negative ( χ2 = 12.46, 4.04, 6.14, P < 0.001, 0.044, 0.013). Both bacterial vaginosis and vulvovaginal candidiasis were recognized as high-risk factors for HPV infection ( OR = 4.039, 2.902, both P < 0.05). Conclusions:Vaginal infectious diseases are significantly linked to HPV infection, particularly bacterial vaginosis and vulvovaginal candidiasis. Analyzing the characteristics of the vaginal microbiota can enhance the clinical management of HPV infection.
