Surgical operation is the main treatment of oral and maxillofacial tumors.Dysphagia is a common postoperative complication.Swal-lowing disorder can not only lead to mis-aspiration,malnutrition,aspiration pneumonia and other serious consequences,but also may cause psychological problems and social communication barriers,affecting the quality of life of the patients.At present,there is no systematic evalua-tion and rehabilitation management plan for the problem of swallowing disorder after oral and maxillofacial tumor surgery in China.Combining the characteristics of postoperative swallowing disorder in patients with oral and maxillofacial tumors,summarizing the clinical experience of ex-perts in the field of tumor and rehabilitation,reviewing and summarizing relevant literature at home and abroad,and through joint discussion and modification,a group of national experts reached this consensus including the core contents of the screening of swallowing disorders,the phased assessment of prognosis and complications,and the implementation plan of comprehensive management such as nutrition management,respiratory management,swallowing function recovery,psychology and nursing during rehabilitation treatment,in order to improve the evalua-tion and rehabilitation of swallowing disorder after oral and maxillofacial tumor surgery in clinic.

Objective To duplicate the existing model of intracranial oculomotor nerve injury in rats,and propose a new method of orbital cavity clamping oculomotor nerve,evaluate the respective advantages of the two models.Methods Male SD rats were used as experimental animals,and two different methods of preparing oculomotor nerve injury models were compared.Sphenopalatine foramen approach group:clamp the initial segment of the oculomotor nerve from the opening of the upper edge of the orbit for 10 s.The skull base approach group,the temporal bone was removed and the infratentorial segment of the oculomotor nerve was clampped for 10 s.Taking the success rate,survival rate and survival status of the model rats as observation indicators,the applicability of the model rats to the intervention of gastric perfusion was and intraorbital electroacupuncture evaluated.Results The success rate after molding 24 h:In the sphenopalatine foramen approach group was 92.31%(12/13);In the skull base approach group was 34.29%(12/35).Survival rate:7 d after gavage:In the sphenopalatine foramen approach group,6 patients survived,with a survival rate of 100.00%(6/6).Four patients survived in the skull base approach group,with a survival rate of 66.67%(4/6).7 days after orbital electroacupuncture:Five patients survived in the sphenopalatine foramen approach group(83.33%,5/6).Three patients survived in the skull base approach group,with a survival rate of 50.00%(3/6).Survival state of rats(0-20 points,the smaller the score,the better):24 h after modeling,the status score of sphenopalatine foramina approach group was 4.11±0.90,and that of skull base approach group was 12.39±1.378.After 7 days of intragastric administration,the score of sphenopalatine foramina approach group was 2.50±1.05,and the score of skull base approach group was 14.50±0.58.The score of sphenopalatine foramina approach group was 2.00±1.22 and the score of skull base approach group was 15.33±0.58 after 7 days of intraorbital electroacupuncture intervention.The success rate,survival rate and survival state of rats in sphenopalatine foramina approach group were better than those in skull base approach group 24 h after modeling(P<0.05);The survival rate and survival state of rats in sphenopalatine foramina approach group were better than those in skull base approach group 7 days after gavage and orbital electroacupuncture intervention(P<0.05).Conclusion The model of oculomotor nerve injury prepared by sphenopalatine foramina approach is more suitable for the basic research of nerve repair after the intervention of gastric gavage and orbital electroacupuncture.The model rats with oculomotor nerve injury prepared by the base approach are more suitable for the basic research after the injury of the intracranial segment of the oculomotor nerve.

Hip fractures are among the most common fractures in the elderly, presenting to be a leading cause of disability and mortality. Surgical treatment is currently the main treatment method for hip fractures. The incidence of perioperative malnutrition is increased after hip fractures in the elderly due to the comorbidities, decreased basal metabolic rate, accelerated protein breakdown, weakened anabolism and surgical stress. However, malnutrition not only increases the incidence of postoperative complications, but also leads to increased mortality, indicating an important role of perioperative nursing management of nutrition for the elderly patients with hip fractures. At present, there still lacks scientific guidance and application standards on perioperative nursing management of nutrition for the elderly patients with hip fractures. Therefore, the Orthopedic Nursing Committee of Chinese Nursing Association and the Editorial Board of Chinese Journal of Trauma organized relevant experts to formulate the Expert consensus on perioperative nursing management of nutrition for elderly patients with hip fractures ( version 2023) according to evidence-based medical evidences and their clinical experiences. Fourteen recommendations were made from aspects of nutrition screening, nutrition assessment, nutrition diagnosis, nutrition intervention and nutrition monitoring to provide guidance for perioperative nursing management of nutrition in elderly patients with hip fractures.

Objective:To investigate the value of ultrasonography in diagnosis of transposition of great arteries of the fetus at 11-13 + 6 weeks gestation. Methods:A prospective study was conducted on fetuses screened by ultrasound in the first trimester in Maternal and Child Health Hospital of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region between January 2015 and March 2022. Fetal heart structure was screened by three-section screening method. Fetuses with suspected transposition of the great arteries at 11-13 + 6 weeks gestation underwent followed-up ultrasound examination, chromosome and gene test results. The ultrasound characteristics and prognosis pregnancy outcomes were summarized. Results:Twenty-one cases of transposition of the great arteries were detected by ultrasonography, including complete transposition of great arteries (20 cases) and congenitaly corrected transposition of the great arteries (1 case). Two cases were miss diagnosed. Twenty-one cases showed parallel signs of two major arteries on grayscale outflow section at 11-13 + 6 weeks gestation. There were 6 cases with aneuploid ultrasonographic soft markers abnormality, 2 cases with extracardiac malformation. Chromosome and microarray analysis were performed in 13 cases. 4 cases with chromosomal abnormality. Four cases of chromosomal abnormalities were associated with ultrasonographic soft markers abnormality, and 1 case with extracardiac malformation.In the 23 cases, 20 cases were induced, 1 miscarried, and 2 delivered to term. Among the fetuses delivered at term, 1 case died before neonatal operation and 1 case survived. Conclusions:Standardized ultrasound scan at 11-13 + 6 weeks has high accuracy in diagnosis of transposition of the great arteries. And the incidence of chromosomal abnormality is high with ultrasonographic soft markers abnormality or extracardiac malformation.

The thalamocortical (TC) circuit is closely associated with pain processing. The hyperpolarization-activated cyclic nucleotide-gated (HCN) 2 channel is predominantly expressed in the ventral posterolateral thalamus (VPL) that has been shown to mediate neuropathic pain. However, the role of VPL HCN2 in modulating TC circuit activity is largely unknown. Here, by using optogenetics, neuronal tracing, electrophysiological recordings, and virus knockdown strategies, we showed that the activation of VPL TC neurons potentiates excitatory synaptic transmission to the hindlimb region of the primary somatosensory cortex (S1HL) as well as mechanical hypersensitivity following spared nerve injury (SNI)-induced neuropathic pain in mice. Either pharmacological blockade or virus knockdown of HCN2 (shRNA-Hcn2) in the VPL was sufficient to alleviate SNI-induced hyperalgesia. Moreover, shRNA-Hcn2 decreased the excitability of TC neurons and synaptic transmission of the VPL-S1HL circuit. Together, our studies provide a novel mechanism by which HCN2 enhances the excitability of the TC circuit to facilitate neuropathic pain.

Ferroptosis is a form of regulated cell death, characterized by excessive membrane lipid peroxidation in an iron- and ROS-dependent manner. Celastrol, a natural bioactive triterpenoid extracted from Tripterygium wilfordii, shows effective anti-fibrotic and anti-inflammatory activities in multiple hepatic diseases. However, the exact molecular mechanisms of action and the direct protein targets of celastrol in the treatment of liver fibrosis remain largely elusive. Here, we discover that celastrol exerts anti-fibrotic effects via promoting the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and inducing ferroptosis in activated hepatic stellate cells (HSCs). By using activity-based protein profiling (ABPP) in combination with bio-orthogonal click chemistry reaction and cellular thermal shift assay (CETSA), we show that celastrol directly binds to peroxiredoxins (PRDXs), including PRDX1, PRDX2, PRDX4 and PRDX6, through the active cysteine sites, and inhibits their anti-oxidant activities. Celastrol also targets to heme oxygenase 1 (HO-1) and upregulates its expression in activated-HSCs. Knockdown of PRDX1, PRDX2, PRDX4, PRDX6 or HO-1 in HSCs, to varying extent, elevated cellular ROS levels and induced ferroptosis. Taken together, our findings reveal the direct protein targets and molecular mechanisms via which celastrol ameliorates hepatic fibrosis, thus supporting the further development of celastrol as a promising therapeutic agent for liver fibrosis.

Objective:To explore the experience and feelings of the aged in the community after implementing the "four-stage" death education based on the theory of knowledge, attitudes and practice, so as to provide a basis for the follow-up promotion of death education for community residents.Methods:The "four-stage" death education model was constructed according to the theory of knowledge, attitudes and practice. From April to December 2019, convenience sampling was used to select 30 elderly people in a nursing home and a community in Beijing, and two death education announcements were carried out in the nursing home and the community. After the event, 15 elderly people were selected by purposive sampling to conduct semi-structured in-depth interviews to understand their experiences and feelings after receiving education. Generic analysis was used to encode, classify, and extract topics from the acquired data.Results:After receiving death education, the elderly's psychological experience was summarized into 5 main themes: death cognition was gradually approaching objective reality; death anxiety was improved; beginning to think about death issues and prepare for death in advance; the ability to respond to death incidents was improved; cherishing the rest of their lives and work hard to live the moment.Conclusions:The implementation of "four-stage" death education based on the theory of knowledge, attitudes and practice can be accepted and effectively responded to by the aged in the community. It can help the aged improve their scientific understanding and reduce their doubts and confusions about death.

Objective:To analyze the status of follow-up and its correlation with highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) for newly diagnosed HIV/AIDS patients from 2014 to 2016 in Shandong province, then to provide theoretical evidence for the improvement of follow-up and HAART.Methods:Based on retrospective cohort study, logistic regression model was used to identify influencing factors of follow-up for HIV/AIDS, and chi-square test was used to do correlation analysis.Results:There were 6253 newly diagnosed HIV/AIDS cases from 2014 to 2016 in Shandong province, and 6011 cases accepted follow-up service. The cumulative follow-up rate was 96.13%, and timely follow-up rate was 94.51%. Higher prevalence of follow-up was found among those aged 15-24 years at diagnosis, diagnosed by VCT, with education level of college and above, lived in east of Shandong province and infected with homosexual sex behaviors. HIV/AIDS cases who received follow-up service within 1 year of diagnosis were more likely to receive HAART ( OR=5.28, 95% CI: 3.51-7.95) and meet the level of viral load (VL) suppression ( OR=4.30, 95% CI: 2.89-6.40) than those who received follow-up service later. Conclusions:The status of follow-up of HIV/AIDS in Shandong province was influenced by age at diagnosis, sample resource, cultural level, address and transmission route. Timely follow-up can improve the proportion and effect of HIV/AIDS treatment.

Objective:To evaluate postoperative pain control and functional recovery of standardized pain management after total hip arthroplasty.Methods:A retrospective analysis between December 2018 and August 2019 included 100 patients who underwent unilateral total hip arthroplasty in department of arthroplasty at the First Affiliated Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University. After informed consent were obtained, the 100 subjects were randomly divided into the control group and the study group according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, which totaled 50 patients in each group. Traditional postoperative pain management was used in control group and a self-made standardized pain management strategy was chosen in the study group. The prognosis of postoperative pain and the Harris Hip Score (HHS) were compared between the two groups.Results:Before intervention, there was no statistically significant difference in pain outcomes and HHS ( P>0.05). After standardized management of pain, the pain outcome scores of the intervention group were all higher than those of the control group, and the total pain outcome score of the intervention group (12.23±2.39) points was lower than that of the control group (14.50±2.18) points, with statistically significant difference ( t value was 4.962, P<0.001). All the Harris scale scores of the intervention group were higher than those of the control group, and the total score of the intervention group (73.61±5.06) was higher than that of the control group (64.98±7.35), with statistically significant differences ( t value was -6.652, P<0.001). Conclusion:Standardized pain management protocol can be fairly effective in the prognosis of postoperative pain and functional recovery and therefore improve patients′ satisfaction after total hip arthroplasty.

Objective:To explore the impact of achievement of the "90-90-90" goals on reductions in HIV incidence in Shandong province.Methods:An algebraic method was developed to link new HIV infections and the "90-90-90" goals in Shandong province. The risk estimation equation was used to analyze the effect of achievement of the "90-90-90" goals on reductions of HIV incidence, and explore the impact of application of antiviral therapy based prevention and control strategy on reduction of new HIV infections.Results:If "90-90-90" goals were achieved in 2020 in Shandong compared with annual new HIV infections in 2010, the percentage of reduction would be 17.27%, 35.99% and 67.55% respectively when transmission rate decreased by 26.00%, 53.00% and 96.00% respectively. Compared with 2017, when the transmission rate decreased by 53.00%, the annual new HIV infections would has a decrease of 10.10% if the rates of diagnosis and ART reached 90.00%; the annual new HIV infections would has a decrease of 20.80% if the rates of diagnosis and viral suppression reached 90.00%; the annual new HIV infections would has a decrease of 12.29% if the rates of ART and viral suppression reached 90.00%.Conclusions:HIV incidence would decrease with the achievement of "90-90-90" goals in Shandong. Compared with the improvement of ART, the improvement in diagnosis of HIV infection and viral suppression would result in more rapid decrease of new HIV infections. Besides expanding ART coverage, more attention should be paid to the strengthening of the diagnosis of HIV infection and viral suppression in Shandong.
