Thrombolytic therapy plays a vital role in reperfusion strategy for ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction(STEMI)patients.Previous Chinese expert consensus focused on pre-hospital thrombolysis therapy in STEMI patients was published in 2018 which tremendously promoted pre-hospital thrombolysis therapy.In recent years,plenty of research progress and results of clinical trials have been released in following areas such as STEMI reperfusion strategy,anti-platelet/anti-coagulants therapy,contemporary facilitated percutaneous coronary intervention,and so on.Meanwhile,the COVID-19 pandemic makes timely reperfusion for STEMI patients even more challenging.Therefore,this consensus has been proposed aiming to summarize recent progress in STEMI thrombolysis therapy and to provide practical & evidence-based instructions conforming to national conditions.We hope this consensus will contribute to the emergency management and long-term prognosis of STEMI patients.

Objective:To investigate the expression of soluble lectin-like oxidized low den-sity lipoprotein receptor-1(sLOX-1)and C1q/tumor necrosis factor related protein 3(CTRP3)in the serum of patients with lower extremity arteriosclerosis obliterans(ASO)and their relationship with restenosis(ISR)after stent intervention.Methods:From June 2019 to June 2022,106 ASO pa-tients who underwent stent intervention in our hospital were regarded as the study subjects.One year after surgery,they were separated into a non ISR group(n=64)and an ISR group(n=42)based on their onset of ISR.The serum levels of sLOX-1 and CTRP3 were compared between the two groups;multivariate Logistic regression was applied to analyze the influencing factors of ISR after stent intervention in ASO patients;ROC curve was applied to analyze the predictive value of se-rum sLOX-1 and CTRP3 levels for ISR after stent intervention in ASO patients.Results:The se-rum sLOX-1 level in the ISR group was obviously higher than that in the non ISR group(P＜0.05),and the CTRP31 level was obviously lower than that in the non ISR group(P＜0.05).The complete occlusion,and sLOX-1 were independent risk factors for ISR after stent intervention in ASO pa-tients,while CTRP3 was a protective factor for ISR after stent intervention in ASO patients(P＜0.05).The AUC of the combination of serum sLOX-1 and CTRP3 in predicting ISR after stent in-tervention in ASO patients was 0.944,with a sensitivity of 97.62％and a specificity of 79.69％,which was superior to the individual predictions of sLOX-1 and CTRP3(Zcombineddetaction-sLOX-1=2.732,Zcombineddetection-CTRP3=2.143,P=0.006,0.032).Conclusion:After ASO stent intervention,the serum level of sLOX-1 was obviously increased in ISR patients,while the level of CTRP3 was obviously reduced,and the combination of the two fatcors has high predictive value for the occurrence of ISR in ASO patients after stent intervention.

Objective To investigate the effect of quality control circle(QCC)activities on reducing the incidence of non-failure alarms of heated humidifiers in the intensive care unit(ICU).Methods Firstly,a QC circle team was formed,and the activity theme of reducing the incidence of non-faulty alarms of heated humidifiers in the ICU was selected to inves-tigate the current status of the use of heated humidifiers in the ICU during the period of December 1-15,2021,and to set improvement goals.Secondly,pareto charts and fishbone diagrams were drawn to analyze the causes for the occurrence of non-faulty alarms.Finally,the countermeasures were formulated and implemented according to the PDCA principle.The inciden-ces of non-faulty alarms of heated humidifiers and the comprehensive capabilities of the circle members were compared before and after the implementation of the QC circle activities.Results After the implementation of the QCC activities,the incidence of non-failure alarms of heated humidifiers decreased from 48.57％to 8.23％,the target achievement rate was 119.7％,the progress rate was 83.06％,and the comprehensive capabilities of circle members were improved obviously.Conclusion The QCC activities effectively reduces the incidence of non-failure alarms of heated humidifiers in the ICU,and thus is worthy promoting for standardizing medical equipment management.[Chinese Medical Equipment Journal,2024,45(6):87-92]

Aim To explore the effects of Lycium berry seed oil on Nrf2/ARE pathway and oxidative damage in testis of subacute aging rats. Methods Fifty out of 60 male SD rats, aged 8 weeks, were subcutaneously injected with 125 mg • kg"D-galactosidase in the neck for 8 weeks to establish a subacute senescent rat model. The presence of senescent cells was observed using P-galactosidase ((3-gal), while testicular morphology was examined using HE staining. Serum levels of testosterone (testosterone, T), follicle-stimulating hormone ( follicle stimulating hormone, FSH ) , luteinizing hormone ( luteinizing hormone, LH ) , superoxide dis-mutase ( superoxide dismutase, SOD ) , glutathione ( glutathione, GSH) and malondialdehyde ( malondial-dehyde, MDA) were measured through ELISA, and the expressions of factors related to aging, oxidative damage, and the Nrf2/ARE pathway were assessed via immunohistochemical analysis and Western blotting. Results After successfully identifying the model, the morphology of the testis was improved and the intervention of Lycium seed oil led to a down-regulation in the expression of [3-gal and -yH2AX. The serum levels of SOD, GSH, T, and FSH increased while MDA and LH decreased (P 0. 05) . Additionally, there was an up-regulated expression of Nrf2, GCLC, NQOl, and SOD2 proteins in testicular tissue ( P 0. 05 ) and nuclear expression of Nrf2 in sertoli cells. Conclusion Lycium barbarum seed oil may reduce oxidative damage in testes of subacute senescent rats by activating the Nrf2/ARE signaling pathway.

Osteoporotic proximal humeral fracture (OPHF) is one of the common osteoporotic fractures in the aged, with an incidence only lower than vertebral compression fracture, hip fracture, and distal radius fracture. OPHF, secondary to osteoporosis and characterized by poor bone quality, comminuted fracture pattern, slow healing, and severely impaired shoulder joint function, poses a big challenge to the current clinical diagnosis and treatment. In the field of diagnosis, treatment, and rehabilitation of OPHF, traditional Chinese and Western medicine have accumulated rich experience and evidence from evidence-based medicine and achieved favorable outcomes. However, there is still a lack of guidance from a relevant consensus as to how to integrate the advantages of the two medical systems and achieve the integrated diagnosis and treatment. To promote the diagnosis and treatment of OPHF with integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine, relevant experts from Orthopedic Expert Committee of Geriatric Branch of Chinese Association of Gerontology and Geriatrics, Youth Osteoporosis Group of Orthopedic Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Osteoporosis Group of Orthopedic Surgeon Branch of Chinese Medical Doctor Association, and Osteoporosis Committee of Shanghai Association of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine have been organized to formulate Expert consensus on the diagnosis and treatment of osteoporotic proximal humeral fracture with integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine ( version 2024) by searching related literatures and based on the evidences from evidence-based medicine. This consensus consists of 13 recommendations about the diagnosis, treatment and rehabilitation of OPHF with integrated traditional Chinese medicine and Western medicine, aimed at standardizing, systematizing, and personalizing the diagnosis and treatment of OPHF with integrated traditional Chinse and Western medicine to improve the patients ′ function.

Objective To investigate the effect of multi-sided foramen ultrafine drainage tube with metal support on the formation of thoracic residual cavity after uniportal video-assisted thoracoscopic (VATS) upper lobectomy. Methods The clinical data of the patients who underwent uniportal VATS upper lobectomy for lung cancer in the Department of Thoracic Surgery of the First Hospital of Lanzhou University from January 2021 to April 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. According to the type of ultrafine drainage tube used in the surgery, the patients were divided into a test group (using metal-supported multi-sided foramen ultrafine drainage tube) and a control group (using ordinary 12F ultrafine drainage tube). The incidence of postoperative thoracic residual cavity and operation-related data were compared between the two groups. Results A total of 200 patients were enrolled, including 126 males and 74 females, with a mean age of 57.52 years. There were 90 patients in the test group, and 110 patients in the control group. The incidence of postoperative thoracic residual cavity in the test group was lower than that in the control group (P=0.045). The differences in the postoperative bedtime, postoperative visual analogue scale, postoperative analgesic pump using time, postoperative hospitalization time, times of postoperative thoracentration and drainage, postoperative drainage time and hospitalization cost between the two groups were statistically significant (P<0.05). The incidences of postoperative lung infection, pleural effusion and atelectasis complications were lower in the test group than those in the control group (P<0.05). The differences in the preoperative anesthesia time, operation time, intraoperative bleeding and postoperative lung leakage were not statistically significant (P>0.05). Conclusion The use of multi-sided foramen ultrafine drainage tube with metal support can reduce the incidence of thoracic residual cavity after uniportal VATS upper lobectomy, and can reduce pain and economical burdens and the incidence of operation-related complications, accelerating the recovery of patients after surgery. The application of multi-sided foramen ultrafine drainage tube with metal support in uniportal VATS upper lobectomy can be widely used in the clinic.

Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is one of the most common types of cancer in the world and is an important cause for cancer death. Although the application of immunotherapy in recent years has greatly improved the prognosis of NSCLC, there are still huge challenges in the treatment of NSCLC. The immune microenvironment plays an important role in the process of NSCLC development, infiltration and metastasis, and they can interact and influence each other, forming a vicious circle. Notably, single-cell RNA sequencing enables high-resolution analysis of individual cells and is of great value in revealing cell types, cell evolution trajectories, molecular mechanisms of cell differentiation, and intercellular regulation within the immune microenvironment. Single-cell RNA sequencing is expected to uncover more promising immunotherapies. This article reviews the important researches and latest achievements of single-cell RNA sequencing in the immune microenvironment of NSCLC, and aims to explore the significance of applying single-cell RNA sequencing to analyze the immune microenvironment of NSCLC.

Objective To investigate the clinical effect of metal supported multi-sided versus ordinary ultra-fine drainage tube in the uniportal video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) lower pulmonary lobectomy. Methods From January 2021 to June 2022, the clinical data of patients who underwent uniportal VATS lower lobectomy in our hospital were retrospectively analyzed. According to the different types of ultra-fine drainage tubes used in the surgery, the patients were divided into an experimental group (using multi-sided hole 10F ultra-fine drainage tubes with metal support) and a control group (using ordinary 12F ultra-fine drainage tubes). The clinical data of the two groups were compared. Results A total of 190 patients were enrolled, including 108 males and 82 females. There were 90 patients in the experimental group aged 56.60±10.14 years; and 100 patients in the control group aged 57.07±11.04 years. The incidences of postoperative lung infection and pleural effusion in the experimental group were lower than those in the control group, with statistically significant differences (P<0.05). The postoperative visual analogue scale score, the need to adjust the chest drainage tube after the surgery, the need for chest puncture after the surgery, the time of postoperative chest tube removal, and the hospitalization cost were statistically different (P<0.05). There was no statistical difference in the length of postoperative hospital stay or the incidences of postoperative lung leakage, arrhythmia, and atelectasis complications (P>0.05). Conclusion Compared with the ordinary ultra-fine drainage tubes, multi-sided hole ultra-fine drainage tubes with metal support can reduce the incidences of lung infection and pleural effusion complications after the uniportal VATS lower lobectomy, reduce the pain and economic burden, which can be applied in the uniportal VATS lower lobectomy.

To monitor and analyze the molecular variation of the H3N2 influenza virus in Guangzhou during the COVID-19 pandemic, respiratory samples of influenza-like cases from influenza monitoring sentinel hospitals were collected from influenza monitoring sentinel hospitals for virus isolation and whole genome sequencing. The results showed that during COVID-19, there was only one peak of H3N2 influenza in the second quarter of 2022 in Guangzhou (the positive rate was 52.23%), and the epidemic intensity and duration were both higher than those in 2019. The HA gene and NA gene of the epidemic strain in Guangzhou in 2022 belonged to the 3C.2a1b. 2a. 1a. 1 branch, which had a good antigenic site matching with the vaccine strain (A/Cambodia/e0826360/2020) from 2021 to 2022 and had no antigen drift. In 2022 strains, the variation of antigen determinant mainly occurred in the I48T of C region, while no variation occurred in the A, B, D, and E regions. The binding site of the HA protein receptor was consistent with the vaccine strain (A/Cambodia/e0826360/2020). Most of the strains in 2022 carried 13 glycosylation sites on the HA protein, but an outbreak of strains caused a loss of glycosylation sites at 24-NST. In conclusion, the strains that caused the epidemic of H3N2 influenza in Guangzhou in 2022 were not evolved or transmitted from the local strains in 2019 during the COVID-19 pandemic.
