OBJECTIVE To build a Tibetan-language medication service platform based on “internet+” and evaluate its effect on improving medication compliance and safety of Tibetan patients with chronic disease. METHODS Medication guidance contents of commonly used drugs in the outpatient department were summarized， translated and recorded in Tibetan-language or video to form a “text-audio-video” multi-dimensional “internet+ ” Tibetan-language medication service platform. A total of 387 Tibetan outpatients with chronic disease in our hospital after the implementation of “internet+” Tibetan-language medication service platform （from January 2024 to June 2024） in our hospital were selected as the intervention group， and 387 Tibetan outpatients before the implementation （from January 2023 to June 2023） were selected as the control group. Patients in the control group received conventional window-based Chinese-language medication services， while patients in the intervention group received both conventional window-based Chinese-language medication service and “internet+ ” Tibetan-language medication service. The medication compliance of patients was evaluated using the 12-item Medication Compliance Scale. A six-level causality assessment was conducted as the principles for analyzing adverse drug reactions （ADR） set by the National Center for ADR Monitoring. Additionally， statistics were compiled on the occurrence of ADR that were assessed as “definite”“probable” or “possible” in the causality assessment. RESULTS The proportion （31.0%） of patients with good medication compliance and compliance scores [39.0 （37.0，42.0）] of patients in the intervention group were significantly better than control group [7.0%， 21.0（19.0， 23.0）]（ P＜0.05）. There were no statistically significant differences in the incidence of various types of ADR or the overall incidence between the two groups （P＞0.05）. CONCLUSIONS The “internet+” Tibetan-language medication service platform is constructed successfully； the service can effectively improve the medication compliance of Tibetan-language patients， but its effect on improving the medication safety of patients is limited.

Objective : To explore the role and mechanism of plasmalemma vesicle-associated protein(PLVAP) in the progression of hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC). Methods : Bioinformatic analysis, quantitative real-time PCR, Western blot and immunohistochemistry were used to analyze the expression level of PLVAP in HCC and paracancerous tissues, and its correlation with clinicopathological characteristics. Stable HCC cell lines with knockdown and overexpression of PLVAP were constructed, then cell proliferation, migration and invasion of HCC cells were examined by CCK-8, foci formation assays, wound-healing assays and Transwell assays. Western blot was used to detect the protein levels of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase PI3K, phosphorylated phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase p-PI3K, protein kinase B AKT and phosphorylated protein kinase B p-AKT in the PI3K/AKT pathway after PLVAP knockdown and overexpression. Cell proliferation, migration and invasion were also examined in PLVAP-overexpressed cells after treatment of LY294002, an inhibitor of the PI3K/AKT pathway. Results : The expression of PLVAP was significantly higher in HCC tissues than that in adjacent non-tumor tissues(P<0.05), and was positive correlated with tumor stage, T stage, M stage, and microvascular invasion(P<0.05). Knockdown of PLVAP significantly reduced the proliferation, migration and invasion of HCC cells(P<0.001), while overexpression of PLVAP significantly increased the proliferation, migration and invasion of HCC cells(P<0.01). Western blot analysis revealed that knockdown of PLVAP decreased the protein expression levels of p-PI3K and p-AKT, overexpression of PLVAP increased the protein expression levels of p-PI3K and p-AKT, whereas the PI3K/AKT inhibitor LY294002 eliminated the effects of PLVAP on cell proliferation, migration and invasion(P<0.01). Conclusion PLVAP is highly expressed in HCC and may promote HCC progression by activating the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway.

Objective To explore the relationship between serum long non-coding RNA X-inactive specific transcript(LncRNA XIST)and microRNA-122-5p(miR-122-5p)expression and the severity of brain injury and prognosis in patients with sepsis-associated encephalopathy(SAE).Methods A total of 108 SAE patients(SAE group)and 52 patients with sepsis only(non-SAE group)admitted to the Ankang Hospital of Tradi-tional Chinese Medicine from January 2019 to December 2023 were selected as the study subjects.According to the degree of brain injury,the SAE patients were categorized into mild brain injury group[Glasgow Coma Scale(GCS)score 13-14,27 cases],moderate brain injury group(GCS score 9-12,36 cases),and severe brain injury group(GCS score 3-8,45 cases).Based on the 28-day prognosis,they were divided into death group(51 cases)and survival group(57 cases).Serum LncRNA XIST and miR-122-5p expression levels were measured using real-time quantitative PCR.The binding site of LncRNA XIST and miR-122-5p was predicted using the StarBase database,and Pearson correlation analysis was performed to evaluate the relationship be-tween serum LncRNA XIST and miR-122-5p expression in SAE patients.Multivariate unconditional Logistic regression was used to determine the association between serum LncRNA XIST,miR-122-5p expression,and prognosis in SAE patients.Receiver operating characteristic curves were used to assess the predictive efficacy of LncRNA XIST and miR-122-5p expression for SAE prognosis.Results Compared with non-SAE group,se-rum LncRNA XIST expression was increased and miR-122-5p expression was decreased in SAE group,with statistical significance(P＜0.05).There were binding sites between LncRNA XIST and miR-122-5p,and the expression of LncRNA XIST in serum of SAE patients was negatively correlated with that of miR-122-5p(P＜0.05).Serum LncRNA XIST expression in mild brain injury group,middle brain injury group and severe brain injury group was increased successively,while miR-122-5p expression was decreased successively,with statistical significance(P＜0.05).The 28-day mortality rate of SAE patients after admission was 47.22％(51/108).Compared with the survival group,the expression of serum LncRNA XIST was higher in the death group,and the expression of miR-122-5p was lower,with statistical significance(P＜0.05).High sequential organ failure assessment(SOFA)score and high expression of LncRNA XIST were independent risk factors for death in SAE patients,while high GCS scores and high miR-122-5p expression of were independent protec-tive factors(P＜0.05).The combined expression of serum LncRNA XIST and miR-122-5p predicted the death of SAE patients with greater area under the curve than that of serum LncRNA XIST and miR-122-5p a-lone(P＜0.05).Conclusion Elevated serum LncRNA XIST and decreased miR-122-5p expression levels are associated with the severity of brain injury and poor prognosis in SAE patients.The combined detection of Ln-cRNA XIST and miR-122-5p has a high predictive value for SAE prognosis.

Objective To investigate the influencing factors of disease progression and prognosis in patients with large artery atherosclerotic(LAA)cerebral infarction and analyze the value of plasma cyclin-dependent kinase 9(CDK9)level in the diagnosis and treatment of LAA cerebral infarction.Methods Patients with acute cerebral infarction admitted to the Department of Neurology of the Affili-ated Hospital of Yangzhou University between March 1,2022,and November 20,2023,were select-ed.According to the diagnostic criteria,98 patients with acute LAA(LAA group)and 33 patients with acute small artery occlusion(SAO)cerebral infarction(SAO group)were selected.Additionally,40 healthy individuals matched for age and gender from the Health Examination Center were included as control group.Based on whether the condition of LAA cerebral infarction patients progressing,they were divided into progressive cerebral infarction(PCI)group(39 patients)and the non-pro-gressive cerebral infarction(NPCI)group(59 patients).During the 3-month follow-up period,6 patients from the 98 LAA cerebral infarction patients were lost.According to the modified Rankin Scale(mRS)score at 90 days of follow-up,patients were divided into good prognosis group(mRS score≤2,59 patients)and poor prognosis group(mRS score＞2,33 patients).Fasting lipid in-dices[total cholesterol(TC),triglyceride(TG),low-density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C),high-density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C),glucose(GLU),glycated hemoglobin(HbA1c),and homocysteine(Hey)]were collected on the second day after admission.The National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale(NIHSS)was used to assess the degree of neurological impairment in cerebral infarction patients.Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA)was used to measure plasma CDK9 levels in different groups;factors influencing disease progression in patients with acute LAA cerebral infarction were explored;and receiver operating characteristic curves were plotted to evalu-ate the predictive value of CDK9 in patients with acute LAA cerebral infarction.Results Compared with the control group,the LAA group had lower HDL-C level and higher CDK9 level(P＜0.05).The LAA group had a higher proportion of diabetes history,larger infarction volume,higher NIHSS score at admission,and higher CDK9 level compared with the SAO group(P＜0.05).Binary Logistic regression analysis showed that diabetes history and plasma CDK9 levels were influencing factors for LAA cerebral infarction.There were statistically significant differences in the proportion of diabetes history,HbA1c,random GLU,and CDK9 levels between the NPCI and PCI groups(P＜0.05).Diabetes history and plasma CDK9 levels were influencing factors for disease progression in patients with acute LAA cerebral infarction.The area under the ROC curve for CDK9 in predicting acute LAA cerebral infarction was 0.854 5(95％CI,0.794 1 to 0.9148).When the CDK9 level was 602.1 ng/L,the Youden index was maximum(0.604),with a corresponding sensitivity of 0.849 and specificity of 0.755.The NIHSS score,infarction volume,and plasma CDK9 level were higher in the poor prognosis group compared with the good prognosis group(P＜0.01).Correlation analysis showed a positive correlation between mRS scores and CDK9 levels(r=0.485,P＜0.01).Conclusion Plasma CDK9 levels are significantly elevated,and is an influencing factor.It is positively correlated with disease progression and poor prognosis in acute cerebral infarction and has certain predictive value for the progression of LAA cerebral infarction.

Objective:To evaluate direct and indirect costs for schizophrenia,major depressive disorder(MDD)and bipolar disorder,and to compare their differences of cost composition,and to explore the drivers of the total costs.Methods:A total of 3 175 inpatients with schizophrenia,MDD,and bipolar disorder were recruited.In-patient's self-report total direct of medical costs outpatient and inpatient,out-of-pocket costs,and direct non-medical costs were regarded as direct costs.Productivity loss and other loss caused by damaging properties were defined as indirect costs.The perspectives of this study included individual and societal levels.Multivariate regression analysis was applied for detecting the factors influencing disease costs.Results:The total cost of schizophrenia was higher than those of MDD and bipolar disorder at individual and societal levels.The indirect costs of three mental disorders were higher than the direct costs,and the indirect cost ratio of bipolar disorder was higher than those of schizophre-nia and MDD.Age,gender,working condition and marital status(P＜0.05)were the important drivers of total costs.Conclusion:The economic burden of the three mental disorders is relatively heavy.Schizophrenia has heaviest disease burden,and the productivity loss due to mental disorders is the driving force of the soaring disease cost

Objective:To describe demographic,clinical and physiological characteristics,treatment between first-episode major depressive disorder(MDD)and relapse MDD,and to explore characteristics of relapse MDD.Methods:Totally 858 patients who met the diagnostic criteria for depression of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders,Fifth Edition(DSM-5),were included by using the Mini International Neuropsychiatric Interview(MINI),Clinician-Rated Dimensions of Psychosis Symptom Severity,and Hamilton Depression Scale etc.Among them,529(58.6％)were first-episode depression and 329(36.0％)were relapsed.The differences of demographic characteristics,clinical and physiological characteristics,treatment were compared byx2test and Kruskal-Wallis rank sum test.Multivariate logistic regression was used to explore the characteristics of MDD recur-rence.Results:Compared to first-episode MDD,relapse MDD had more comorbidity(OR=2.11,95％CI:1.00-4.44),more days out of role(OR=1.26,95％CI:1.01-1.56),more history of using psychiatric drug more than one month(OR=1.41,95％CI:1.02-1.97)and electroconvulsive therapy(OR=3.23,95％CI:1.42-7.36),and higher waist-hip ratio(OR=33.88,95％CI:2.88-399.32).Conclusion:Relapse MDD has positive as-sociation with comorbidity of mental disorders,out of role,and higher waist-hip ratio.

The objective of this study is to assess the current status of vaccination against respiratory disease among the elderly aged ≥60 and analyze the factors influencing vaccination rates at both service provider and recipient levels in Zhejiang Province. Using a stratified random sampling method, a questionnaire survey was conducted from September 2022 to January 2023 among elderly people aged ≥60 in 30 townships/streets in Zhejiang Province, as well as immunization planning staff at the provincial, municipal, county/district, and township/street levels. Logistic regression models were used to analyze the factors related to vaccination among elderly people in Zhejiang Province. Based on the Zhejiang Provincial Comprehensive Management Information System for Vaccine and Vaccination, the systematic coverage rates of influenza vaccine and pneumonia vaccine for the elderly were 21.76% and 4.57%, respectively. Multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated that advanced age ( OR=1.74, 95% CI: 1.51-1.99), knowing that influenza is more severe than the common cold ( OR=1.67, 95% CI: 1.37-2.04) and having heard of the influenza vaccine ( OR=9.78, 95% CI: 7.03-13.59) were motivating factors for elderly to receive influenza vaccines. Advanced age ( OR=1.71, 95% CI: 1.43-2.06), knowing the serious consequences of pneumonia in the elderly ( OR=1.93, 95% CI: 1.47-2.55) and knowing that pneumonia vaccines can prevent pneumonia ( OR=6.36, 95% CI: 4.84-8.36) were motivating factors for elderly to receive pneumonia vaccines. Zhejiang Immunization Program staff believed that the main reasons why the elderly aged ≥60 would not be vaccinated against influenza or pneumonia were that they felt they would not get sick (55.52% and 56.35% respectively), it would not be serious if get sick (47.73% and 37.46% respectively), lacking trust in vaccine efficacy and safety (38.31% and 43.69% respectively). Vaccination rates for influenza and pneumonia vaccines among the elderly aged ≥60 in Zhejiang Province are suboptimal. Advanced age, awareness of the severity of respiratory diseases and awareness of vaccines against such diseases are related factors for elderly individuals to receive influenza and pneumonia vaccines.

Objective:To explore the effect of staged rehabilitation nursing in patients undergoing arthroscopic rotator cuff repair.Methods:From January 2021 to December 2022, convenience sampling was used to select 73 patients who underwent arthroscopic rotator cuff repair in the Department of Hand Surgery at Affiliated Hospital of Nantong University as participants. According to the random number table method, patients were divided into a control group ( n=36) and an observation group ( n=37). Control group received routine rehabilitation nursing, while observation group received staged rehabilitation nursing. The University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) Shoulder Rating Scale score, American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES) Rating Scale score, Constant-Murley Shoulder Scale score, and complications during rehabilitation were compared between two groups of patients before and six months after intervention. Results:Six months after surgery, both groups showed an increase in UCLA scores and ASES scores compared to before the intervention ( P<0.05), and the scores of observation group were higher than those of control group, with statistical differences ( P<0.05). Six months after surgery, the Constant-Murley Shoulder Scale scores for daily life and shoulder range of motion in observation group were higher than those in control group, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). During the rehabilitation period, the incidence of complications in observation group was lower than that in control group with a statistical difference ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:Staged rehabilitation nursing in patients undergoing arthroscopic rotator cuff repair shows significant effects and can effectively promote patient recovery.
