Objective:To analyze the genetic characteristics of the VWF gene c.7332G＞A nonsense mutation and explore its molecular pathogenesis.Methods:Phenotypic diagnosis of the proband was performed using VWF:Ag,VWF:RCo,FⅧ:C and multimeric analysis.The probands were genotyped by NGS whole-exome sequencing,and the sequencing results were validated by sanger sequencing.The family members were genotyped by Sanger sequencing.The VWF gene c.7332G＞A nonsense mutant plasmid was constructed.After transfection,the function of VWF gene c.7332G＞A mutant plasmid was verified at cell level in vitro.The mRNA level was detected by qRT-PCR,and the expression level of protein was detected by Western blot,the function of multimerization was verified by the multimeric analysis.Results:VWF:Ag and VWF:RCo were all less than 3％in the proband,and the multimeric analysis showed multimer deficiency.The proband was diagnosed as type 3 VWD.The homozygous nonsense mutation of VWF gene c.7332G＞A was detected by gene sequencing.The VWF mRNA level of the mutant plasmid was decreased,and the VWF protein expression in the cell supernatant was decreased,the mutant protein was truncated and the function of VWF multimerization was impaired.Conclusion:A homozygous mutation in exon 43 of VWF gene,c.7332G＞A,was responsible for the probands type 3 VWD in the proband.The mutation caused a decrease in the relative level of VWF mRNA and protein,and impaired the function of VWF multimerization.

Objective:To explore the effectiveness and safety of different anticoagulation strategies during continuous blood purification (CBP) treatment,providing a reference for anticoagulation strategies in critically ill children undergoing CBP.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted,including children admitted to the PICU of Children's Hospital of Fudan University from January 2019 to December 2024.According to the anticoagulation methods used during CBP treatment,patients were divided into the sodium citrate group and the heparin group.CBP was performed using continuous venovenous hemofiltration or continuous venovenous hemodialysis filtration mode,with a blood flow rate of 3-5 mL/(kg·min),replacement fluid rate of 30-50 mL/(kg·h),and dialysis fluid rate of 20-30 mL/(kg·h).The filter lifespan,28-day all-cause mortality,total length of hospital stay,PICU stay duration,adverse events,and associated costs were compared between the two groups.Results:A total of 221 children were included (105 in the sodium citrate group and 116 in the heparin group),with a cumulative use of 666 filters (284 in the sodium citrate group and 382 in the heparin group).(1) There were no statistically significant differences in general data,including age,sex ratio,underlying diseases,the ratio and duration of invasive mechanical ventilation,vasopressor scores at baseline,and indications for CBP between the two groups (all P>0.05).(2) The filter lifespan was 20(14,32) hours for the sodium citrate group and 21(13,35) hours for the heparin group,with no statistically significant difference between the two groups ( P>0.05); the proportion of accidental downstroke was 2.8% and 6.5%,respectively,with a statistically significant difference ( P=0.029); among the 221 children,86 died,with 38 deaths (35.2%) in the sodium citrate group and 49 deaths (38.9%) in the heparin group,showing no statistically significant difference.(3) The sodium citrate group had a higher incidence of metabolic alkalosis,hypocalcemia,and sodium citrate accumulation (44.4% vs. 1.6%,32.7% vs 9.4%,7.7% vs 0,all P<0.01); the heparin group had a greater proportion of bleeding (6.0% vs. 2.9%) and was more likely to develop heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (10.2% vs. 0, P<0.01).(4) The total hospitalization costs for the sodium citrate group were significantly higher than for the heparin group (200 327 yuan vs. 152 077 yuan, P=0.05); costs related to the use of anticoagulants and monitoring indicators during CBP treatment were also higher in the sodium citrate group (2 479 yuan vs. 682 yuan, P<0.01). Conclusions:Sodium citrate is a safe and effective anticoagulation method for critically ill children undergoing CBP,which can reduce the risk of filter clotting compared to systemic heparin anticoagulation.

Objective To evaluate the transition rules of normal body mass index(BMI),overweight and metabolic syndrome(MetS)in patients with major depressive disorder(MDD).Methods Patients with MDD who had multiple admission records between Jan 2016 and Nov 2021 in Beijing Anding Hospital,Capital Medical University were included.Based on the overweight and metabolic syndrome status assessed at each admission,the patients were categorized into three states:normal BMI,overweight and metabolic syndrome.A multi-state Markov model was used to analyze the transition intensity and transition frequency between three states and the influence of covariates on transitions.Results A total of 892 records of 398 subjects were included,with a median age of 56 years old and 31.4% males.The median follow-up period was 40 months.The multi-state model showed that there were 494 transitions between the three states,of which 5.1% moved from normal BMI to overweight and 5.5% moved from overweight to MetS.The intensity of transition was the highest from overweight to MetS,9.52 times greater than overweight to normal BMI.After 48.53 months,MDD patients with normal BMI began to transition to MetS.For overweight MDD patients,the transition to MetS started after 8.77 months.MDD patients with normal BMI or overweight had 31.4% and 50.4% probabilities of developing Mets after 36 months.For MDD patients comorbid with MetS,the probability of staying at MetS was 51.2% after 36 months.Multivariate analysis showed that being unmarried was a risk factor against developing overweight in normal BMI MDD patients,while a higher level of education was a protective factor against developing MetS in overweight MDD patients.Conclusion MDD patients exhibited a higher intensity and risk of developing MetS,and it is not easy to reverse MetS,suggesting that BMI management and MetS intervention should be strengthened in MDD patients.

Objective:To construct and evaluate a training program for cardiovascular nurse specialists based on a core competency framework.Methods:Among 61 trainees participating in the first training class for cardiovascular nurse specialists organized by a provincial nursing society, a training program focusing on the nine core competencies for cardiovascular nurse specialists was implemented, which consisted of 4-week theoretical and 4-week practical training. The effectiveness of the training program was evaluated using the Kirkpatrick model. Data analyses were performed by using SPSS 26.0. Categorical data were presented as the number of cases; continuous variables in normal distribution were expressed as mean±standard deviation; and continuous variables in non-normal distribution were presented as median (interquartile range) and compared using non-parametric tests.Results:At the reaction level, the satisfaction rates of trainees with the theoretical and practical sections of the training program were 98.36% (60/61) and 95.08% (58/61), respectively. At the learning level, the comprehensive assessment score of the trainees was (83.01±3.39) points, and all of them successfully obtained their completion certificates, with a pass rate of 100.00% (61/61). At the behavior level, the core competencies for cardiovascular nurse specialists were significantly improved after training [the total score increased from 291.00 (254.00, 334.25) to 410.50 (354.50, 433.00), P<0.001]. At the results level, at six months after training, there were significant increases in the number of participants engaging in cardiovascular care practices, clinical nursing education and guidance, leadership roles, and research projects within their units as well as the number of individuals achieving career advancement (all P<0.05). Conclusions:The trainees are highly satisfied with the core competency-focused cardiovascular nurse training program, which can improve core competencies and cardiovascular nursing capabilities, expand the scope of cardiovascular nursing services, and foster the sustained advancement of the participants.
