Objective To investigate the effect of sakubatrotril and valsartan in the treatment of heart failure after percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI)for acute myocardial infarction(AMI).Methods AMI patients who received PCI were randomly divided into treatment group and control group.Both groups were given routine basic treatment such as anti-platelet aggregation,lipidregulation,β-blocker and diuretic tolasemide,while the control group was given enalapril maleate tablet(5 mg,bid).The treatment group was given sacubactril valsartan sodium tablets(5 mg,bid)in addition to basic treatment.The clinical efficacy,myocardial injury markers,cardiac function,ventricular remodeling indexes,vascular endothelial function and cardiovascular adverse events(MACEs)were compared between the two groups.Results The treatment group and the control group were enrolled in 40 patients.After 3 months of treatment,the total effective rate of the treatment group was 95.00％and that of the control group was 80.00％.The difference between the total effective rate of the treatment group and the control group was statistically significant(P＜0.05).After 3 months of treatment,the levels of creatine kinase isoenzyme(CK-MB)in treatment group and control group were(30.23±5.28)and(36.58±7.05)U·L-1,respectively;cardiac troponin Ⅰ(cTnⅠ)were(1.04±0.18)and(1.25±0.31)ng·mL-1,respectively;left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF)were(40.29±6.32)％and(34.39±5.62)％,and endothelium-dependent diastolic function(FMD)were(15.72±2.83)％and(9.55±2.05)％,respectively;nitric oxide(NO)levels were(47.41±5.85)and(41.28±3.37)μmol·L-1;endothelin-1(ET-1)was(70.53±8.29)and(83.62±10.11)ng·L-1,respectively.Compared with the control group,the above indexes in treatment groups were statistically significant(all P＜0.05).The incidence of MACEs was 10.00％in treatment group and 25.00％in control group,with no statistical significance(P＞0.05).After 3 months of treatment,the incidence of adverse drug reactions in AMI patients in treatment group was 12.50％,and that in control group was 17.50％.There was no statistical significance in the incidence of adverse drug reactions in treatment group compared with control group(P＞0.05).Conclusion Sacubactril valsartan can effectively prevent ventricular remodeling and improve vascular endothelial function in patients with heart failure after PCI.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the effect and mechanism of Panax notoginseng saponins （PNS） on wound healing after anal fistula surgery in rats by regulating the hypoxia-inducible factor-1α （HIF-1α）/vascular endothelial growth factor （VEGF）/ vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-2 （VEGFR2） signaling pathway. METHODS SD rats were selected to establish a postoperative rat model of anal fistula by infecting wound with Escherichia coli. The model rats were randomly grouped into model group， PNS low-dose and high-dose groups （15， 30 mg/cm2）， high-dose of PNS+2-methoxyestradiol （2ME2） group （PNS 30 mg/cm2+HIF-1α inhibitor 2ME2 4 mg/kg）， with 10 rats in each group. Another 10 normal rats were selected for back hair removal treatment as the control group. Each drug group was injected with the corresponding drug solution intramuscularly or （and） intraperitoneally， once a day， for 3 weeks. After the last administration， the wound healing rate （excluding the control group）， microvascular density （MVD）， the expression of collagen Ⅰ and fibronectin （FN） in the wound tissue were detected in each group； the levels of angiogenic factors [VEGF， E-mail：842710813@qq.com angiopoietin-Ⅰ （Ang-Ⅰ）， Ang-Ⅱ] in serum， the levels of inflammatory factors [interleukin-6 （IL-6） and IL-2] in serum binggui7183@163.com and wound tissue as well as the expressions of the related proteins of HIF-1α/VEGF/VEGFR2 signaling pathway in the wound tissue of rats were also detected in each group. RESULTS The MVD， the expression of collagen Ⅰ and FN in the wound tissue， and the levels of IL-6 and IL-2 in serum and wound tissue of rats increased significantly in the model group， compared to the control group （P＜0.05）， while the serum levels of VEGF， Ang- Ⅰ and Ang-Ⅱ decreased significantly （P＜0.05）. The wound healing rate， the MVD in wound tissue， the serum levels of VEGF， Ang-Ⅰ and Ang-Ⅱ， the expressions of collagen Ⅰ and FN in the wound tissue， and protein expressions of HIF-1α， VEGF and VEGFR2 in the PNS low-dose and high-dose groups increased significantly， compared to the model group （P＜0.05）， while the levels of IL-6 and IL-2 in serum and wound tissue decreased significantly （P＜0.05）； the high-dose PNS had a stronger effect （P＜ 0.05）. 2ME2 could weaken the effect of PNS on above indicators of rats after anal fistula surgery （P＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS PNS can promote the production of angiogenic factors and inhibit the production of pro-inflammatory factors， thereby promoting wound healing in rats after anal fistula surgery. The above effects are related to the activation of HIF-1α/VEGF/VEGFR2 signaling pathway.

Objective To analyze the incidence of venous thromboembolism(VTE)in pulmonary patients and explore the assessment and prevention of the risk of pneumonia accompanied VTE.Methods The patients with pneumonia were divided into control group(simple pneumonia)and treatment group(with VTE)according to the condition of VTE.Demographic data,blood routine,coagulation index,liver and kidney function index and blood gas index were collected.Statistical methods like chi square test,t-test and nonparametric rank sum test were applied to compare the differences between the two groups.Finally,the nomogram was established according to the logistic regression results and the receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was calculated.Results 106 cases in control group and 29 cases in treatment group.Univariate analysis showed that age,D-dimer,fibrinogen degradation products,white blood cell count,neutrophil count,albumin-globulin ratio were statistically significant(P＜0.05).Multivariate logistic regression analysis suggests that age[odds ratio(OR)=1.052],D-dimer(OR=2.339),and albumin/globulin(OR=0.042)are independent affecting factors for VTE in pneumonia patients.A nomogram was developed and ROC was calculated,the area under curve(AUC)was 0.754.Conclusion High age,elevated D-dimer and decreased albumin/globulin are independent risk factors for VTE in pneumonia patients.More over,the established prediction model has good accuracy.

Objective:To conduct a nationwide physician survey to better understand clinicians’ disease awareness, treatment patterns, and experience of Waldenstr?m macroglobulinemia (WM) in China.Methods:This cross-sectional study was conducted from February 2022 to July 2022 by recruiting clinicians with WM treatment experience from hematology, hematology-oncology, and oncology departments throughout China. Quantitative surveys were designed based on the qualitative interviews.Results:The study included 415 clinicians from 219 hospitals spread across thirty-three cities and twenty-two provinces. As for diagnosis, the laboratory tests prescribed by physicians for suspected WM patients were relatively consistent (92% -99% recommendation for laboratory, 79% -95% recommendation for pathology, 96% recommendation for gene testing, and 63% -83% recommendation for imaging examination). However, from a physician's perspective, there was 22% misdiagnosis occurred in clinical practice. The rate of misdiagnosis was higher in lower-level hospitals than in tertiary grade A hospitals (29% vs 21%, P<0.001). The main reasons for misdiagnosis were that WM was easily confused with other diseases, and physicians lacked the necessary knowledge to make an accurate diagnosis. In terms of gene testing in clinical practice, 96% of participating physicians believed that WM patients would require gene testing for MYD88 and CXCR4 mutations because the results of gene testing would aid in confirming diagnosis and treatment options. In terms of treatment, 55% of physicians thought that the most important goal was to achieve remission, while 54% and 51% of physicians wanted to improve laboratory and/or examination results and extend overall survival time, respectively. Among patients with treatment indications, physicians estimated that approximately 21% of them refused to receive treatment, mainly owing to a lack of affordable care and disease awareness. When selecting the most appropriate treatment regimens, physicians would consider patient affordability (63% ), comorbidity (61% ), and risk level (54% ). Regimens containing Bruton tyrosine kinase inhibitor (BTKi) were most widely recommended for both treatment-na?ve and relapsed/refractory patients (94% for all patients, 95% for treatment-na?ve patients, and 75% for relapsed/refractory patients), and most physicians recommended Ibrutinib (84% ). For those patients who received treatment, physicians reported that approximately 23% of patients did not comply with the treatment regimen due to a lack of affordability and disease awareness. Furthermore, 66% of physicians believe that in the future, increasing disease awareness and improving diagnosis rates is critical. Conclusions:This study is the first national physician survey of WM conducted in China. It systematically describes the issues that exist in WM diagnosis and treatment in China, such as a high rate of misdiagnosis, limited access to gene testing and new drugs, and poor patient adherence to treatment. Chinese doctors believe that improving doctors’ and patients’ understanding of WM is one of the most urgent issues that must be addressed right now.

Objective:To explore the impact of rehabilitation exercise intervention mode based on cardiac function classification on clinical effect and quality of life(QOL)in patients with chronic heart failure(CHF).Methods:A total of 160 CHF patients who visited our hospital from Dec 2021 to Jan 2023 were selected,and 154 cases were fi-nally enrolled.According to the random number table method,patients were divided into study group and control group with 77 cases in each group.Control group received routine nursing program,while the study group received rehabilitation exercise intervention based on cardiac function classification on the basis of control group,both groups were intervened for three months.Clinical total effective rate,and cardiopulmonary function,serum oxidative stress indicators and MLHFQ score before and after intervention were compared between two groups.Results:Total effective rates of study subgroups of class Ⅱ and Ⅲ were significantly higher than those of control group(class Ⅱ:100.00％vs.83.78％;class Ⅲ:97.37％vs.80.00％)(P＜0.05 both).Compared with control subgroup of classⅢ after intervention,there were significant rise in peak VO2[(16.98±2.03)ml·min-1·kg-1 vs.(18.61±2.41)ml·min-1·kg-1],LVEF[(41.73±4.53)％vs.(48.03±5.22)％]and 6MWD[(351.34±61.00)m vs.(391.53±64.42)m](P＜0.01 all);and significant reductions in LVEDd[(57.55±3.91)mm vs.(53.18±3.07)mm],LVESd[(35.90±2.91)mm vs.(30.50±2.67)mm],levels of LPO[(6.00±0.99)mg/L vs.(3.95±0.61)mg/L],MPO[(3.83±0.58)mg/L vs.(2.03±0.28)mg/L],and MLHFQ total score[(57.05±4.57)points vs.(45.29±3.94)points]in study subgroup of class Ⅲ(P=0.001 all).Compared with control subgroup of class Ⅱ after intervention,there were significant rise in peak VO2,LVEF and 6MWD,and significant reductions in LVEDd,LVESd,levels of LPO,MPO and MLHFQ score in study subgroup of class Ⅱ,P＜0.05 or＜0.01.There was no significant difference in the incidence rate of adverse events during follow-up between two groups(3.90％vs.6.49％,P=0.717).Conclusion:Rehabilitation exercise intervention based on cardiac function classifi-cation can significantly improve cardiopulmonary function,inhibit oxidative stress response in vivo and improve quality of life in CHF patients,which is worthy of promotion and application in clinical practice.

Objective To investigate the incidence of neglected perforation of sterile surgical gloves used in craniocerebral surgery and its effect on bacterial contamination of the gloves.Methods A total of 996 sterile surgical gloves worn by surgical participants during craniocerebral surgery were selected as the study objects.Univariate and multivariate Logistic regression analysis were respectively performed to analyze the factors that might cause the neglected perforation of gloves,and the detection rate of bacteria on the outer surface of perforated and unperforated gloves were compared.Results Among 996 sterile surgical gloves used in craniocerebral surgery,84(8.43%)gloves were found to have neglected perforation,and 39(3.92%)gloves were found to have bacteria.The detection rate of bacteria on the outer surface of the neglected perforation group was significantly higher than that of the non-neglected perforation group(P<0.001).The results of univariate and multivariate Logistic analysis suggested that craniotomy,emergency surgery,surgery time≥150 minutes,the use of rotating equipment during surgery and the role of glove wearing personnel as the main surgeon were the risk factors for neglected perforation of sterile surgical gloves(OR>1,P<0.05),while the use of double-layer gloves during surgery was the protective factor for avoiding perforation(OR<1,P<0.05).Conclusion The occurrence of neglected perforation of sterile surgical gloves during craniocerebral surgery is not optimistic.The probability of neglected perforation of gloves is higher in craniotomy,emergency surgery,long surgery time,the use of rotating equipment during surgery,and gloves used by the main surgeon.For surgeries with a high incidence of neglected perforation,double-layer gloves can be worn during surgery to reduce bacterial contamination on the outer surface of sterile surgical gloves.

Aim To explore the effect of targeted inhi-bition of co-signaling molecule B7-H3 on the growth,migration,and angiogenesis ability of human umbilical vein endothelial cells(HUVECs).Methods Small interference RNA was used to knock down HUVECs B7-H3 molecules.CCK-8 test was used to detect cell proliferation at 24 h,48 h and 72 h.Transwell test was then used to detect 24 h cell migration,and three-dimensional cell culture was used to observe cell angio-genesis.Results Compared with the negative control group(siRNA-Control),siRNA-720,siRNA-1707 and siRNA-1690 had different inhibitory effects on the expression of B7-H3.B7-H3 inhibition of siRNA-1690 was significantly higher than that of siRNA-720 and siRNA-1707,and siRNA-1690 sequence was chosen for follow-up experiment.The results of CCK-8 cell vi-ability assay showed that the proliferation ability of HU-VECs decreased by 24％,22％(P＞0.05,compared with 24 h)and 15％(P＜0.05,compared with 48 h)respectively at 24 h,48 h and 72 h after B7-H3 knockout.The migration ability of B7-H3 for 24 h was significantly lower than that of siRNA-Control group(P＜0.01).The results of three-dimensional cell cul-ture showed that the angiogenic ability of HUVECs de-creased significantly after si-B7-H3 knockdown of B7-H3 gene(P＜0.01).Conclusion Targeting B7-H3 inhibits the growth,migration,and angiogenesis of hu-man umbilical vein endothelial cells.

AIM: To investigate the characteristics of changes in corneal epithelial thickness at the early postoperative stage of femtosecond assisted laser in situ keratomileusis(FS-LASIK)and its related influencing factors.METHOD: Retrospective study. A total of 120 patients(240 eyes)of myopia undergoing FS-LASIK from May 2021 to June 2022 were selected. The corneal epithelium thickness in the central area, inner ring area, and outer ring area of patients before and at 1d, 1wk, 1 and 3mo after operation was recorded. The relationship between the variation of corneal epithelium thickness and spherical equivalent, optical zone diameter, depth of cut and cutting ratio was analyzed by Pearson correlation.RESULTS: There was no statistical significance in corneal epithelial thickness in the central area, inner ring area and outer ring area at 1d after FS-LASIK compared with that before operation(P>0.05). At 1wk, 1 and 3mo after surgery, the corneal epithelial thickness in the central area, inner ring area and outer ring area increased compared with that before surgery, and the corneal epithelial thickness in the central area and inner ring area at 1 and 3mo after surgery was greater than that in the outer ring area(all P<0.05). The corneal epithelial thickness in the central, inner and outer ring areas of high myopia patients was thicker than that of low and moderate myopia patients before operation. The corneal epithelial thickness in the central, inner and outer ring areas of high myopia patients was thinner than that of low and moderate myopia patients at 1wk after operation(P<0.05). At 1 and 3mo after operation, the corneal epithelial thickness in the central, inner and outer ring areas of patients with high myopia was greater than that of patients with low and moderate myopia, and the changes of corneal epithelial thickness in the central, inner and outer ring areas were greater than those of patients with low and moderate myopia(P<0.05). The results of Pearson correlation showed that the changes in corneal epithelial thickness in the central and inner ring area were positively correlated with the corneal curvature, depth of cut and cutting ratio at 3mo after surgery, and they were in negative correlation with the age, spherical equivalent and optical zone diameter(P<0.05).CONCLUSION: The corneal epithelial thickness of patients thickened after the FS-LASIK operation, and it was correlated with age, corneal curvature, preoperative depth of cut, cutting ratio, spherical equivalent and the optic zone diameter.

OBJECTIVE To explore the effects of pterostilbene （PTE） on wound healing in diabetic skin ulcer model rats and its mechanism. METHODS Ten SD rats were grouped into control group； after diabetic skin ulcer model of other rats was induced by giving high-fat and high-sugar diet+intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin+cutting off the skin and subcutaneous tissue in the marked area of the back， model rats were randomly divided into model group， PTE low-dose group （40 mg/kg）， PTE high-dose group （80 mg/kg）， PTE high-dose+PP2 group （80 mg/kg PTE+2 mg/kg SRC inhibitor PP2）， with 10 rats in each group. On the second day after modeling， the rats in each drug group were intraperitoneally injected with corresponding drug solutions， while the rats in control group and model group were intraperitoneally injected with normal saline， once a day， for 14 consecutive days. The wound healing rate of rats in each group was measured on the 7th and 14th day of administration； the contents of interleukin-1β （IL-1β）， IL-6， tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α） and vascular endothelial growth factor （VEGF） in the serum of rats were detected； the pathological changes of wound granulation tissue were observed， and the expressions of SRC/mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase （MEK）/extracellular signal-regulated kinase （ERK） signaling pathway-related proteins in wound granulation tissue were detected. RESULTS Compared with control group， the wound healing rate， serum content of VEGF， the phosphorylation levels of SRC， MEK1/2 and ERK1/2 were decreased significantly （P＜0.05）， while serum contents of IL- 1β， IL-6 and TNF-α were increased significantly （P＜0.05）； there was obvious infiltration of inflammatory cells in the wound granulation tissue， and the number of new blood vessels decreased. Compared with model group， above indexes of PTE low-dose and high-dose groups were improved significantly （P＜0.05）， and the pathological injury of granulation tissue in wound was improved. PP2 significantly reversed the improvement effects of PTE on the above indexes （P＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS PTE can promote the wound healing of diabetic skin ulcer model rats， the mechanism of which may be related to activating SRC/MEK/ERK signaling pathway.
