AIM: To investigate the differences in morphological structure and retinal blood perfusion between the affected eye and the contralateral healthy eye using optical coherence tomography angiography(OCTA)in patients with idiopathic macular epiretinal membrane(IMEM)before and after surgery, and to evaluate the association of these parameters with functional and anatomical outcomes to inform prognostic assessment. METHODS:A prospective study was conducted at Zhejiang Provincial People's Hospital between January 2023 and December 2024. Consecutive patients diagnosed with unilateral IMEM were enrolled; the fellow eye served as an internal control. All participants underwent standardized ophthalmic evaluations, including optical coherence tomography(OCT), OCTA, and color fundus photography. Key quantitative parameters assessed included best-corrected visual acuity(BCVA), central macular thickness(CMT), foveal avascular zone(FAZ)area, vessel density in the inner capillary plexus(ICP), superficial capillary plexus(SCP), deep capillary plexus(DCP), and choroidal capillary perfusion area(CCPA). Measurements were obtained preoperatively and at 1 and 3 mo postoperatively. Correlation analyses were performed between the above parameters and postoperative BCVA and CMT.RESULTS: This study enrolled 30 patients(60 eyes)diagnosed with IMEM, comprising 14 males and 16 females, with a mean age of 65.4±10.8 y.At baseline, IMEM-affected eyes demonstrated significantly reduced BCVA, DCP density, and FAZ area, alongside significantly increased CMT and CCPA, compared with contralateral controls. Following vitrectomy with membrane peeling, CMT decreased significantly at both 1 and 3 mo(both P<0.05)postoperatively; DCP density and BCVA showed significant improvement(both P<0.05). No significant change in FAZ area was observed postoperatively(P>0.05). At 3 mo postoperatively, BCVA of the affected eye was negatively correlated with CMT(r=-0.549, P=0.022). At 1 mo postoperatively, CMT was negatively correlated with preoperative DCP and FAZ, positively correlated with preoperative CMT, and positively correlated with ICP and SCP at 1 mo postoperatively, and negatively correlated with FAZ at 1 mo postoperatively(all P<0.05). Furthermore, CMT at 3 mo postoperatively was negatively correlated with preoperative DCP(r=-0.498,P=0.042).CONCLUSION:In patients with IMEM, the affected eyes exhibit significantly reduced DCP density and FAZ area, alongside increased CMT and CCPA. Following vitrectomy with membrane peeling, CMT decreased progressively, DCP density demonstrated partial restoration, and vision improved gradually. Preoperatively, smaller CMT larger DCP, and FAZ were associated with more favorable surgical outcomes; postoperatively, smaller ICP and SCP densities—combined with a larger FAZ—also correlated with better functional recovery.

Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of gemcitabine and cisplatin (GP) regimen in combination with immune checkpoint inhibitor sintilimab as neoadjuvant therapy for muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) patients and the feasibility of the following selective bladder sparing surgery. Materials and Methods: Patients with histopathologically confirmed urothelial carcinoma without distant metastases (T2-4a, N ≤ 1, M0, American Joint Committee of Cancer 8th) and with adequate organ function will be enrolled. The therapeutic regimen was sintilimab 200 mg once on day 8, gemcitabine 1,000 mg/m2 and cisplatin 35 mg/m2 once on days 1 and 8, every 21 days for four cycles. The primary endpoint was pathologic complete response (pCR, pT0N0) rate. The secondary end points were ypT < 2 rate, R0 resection rate, event-free survival, and safety. Results: From May 4, 2020, to May 20, 2023, 55 patients were enrolled. Forty-six patients were evaluated for efficacy. Among the 42 patients who underwent surgery, 16 patients (38.0%) achieved pCR. Thirty-three patients (78.6%) achieved pT < 2. With a median follow-up of 15.7 months, the 1-year event-free survival was 91.3%. Notwithstanding the poor pathological baseline characteristic of a high T3-T4a proportion (39.1%), a promising bladder preservation (including 22 patients transurethral resection of bladder tumor, 5 patients partial cystectomy, and 4 surveillances) rate was achieved (67.4%). The most common grade ≥ 3 treatment-related adverse events was neutropenia (n=15, 27.3%), which was related to chemotherapy. There were no grade 3 immune-related adverse events. Conclusion Neoadjuvant GP plus sintilimab is a promising regimen for MIBC patients, with relatively high pT < 2 rate and triggering the emerging roles for the multi-disciplinary team decision-making for bladder sparing surgery.

OBJECTIVE To formulate the Hazardous Drug List in China， and provide a scientific basis for standardizing the management of hazardous drugs， preventing and controlling occupational exposure risks in medical institutions at all levels in China. METHODS Under the joint organization of the Intravenous Medication Admixture Management Professional Committee of the Chinese Pharmaceutical Association and the National Medical Quality Control Center for Pharmaceutical Management， based on literature research and international hazardous drug lists and their development procedures， the scope of hazardous drug selection， selection principles， and evidence confirmation criteria were determined through expert panel seminars and expert questionnaire survey method （Delphi method）. Chemical drugs， biological agents， and Chinese patent medicines marketed in China that met the selecti on principles were screened to form the Chinese Expert Consensus on the Hazardous Drug List . RESULTS Five principles for selecting hazardous drugs were established （including protective labeling in package inserts， carcinogenicity， reproductive toxicity， genotoxicity， and organ toxicity at low doses）， along with the corresponding evidence confirmation criteria. The Hazardous Drug List containing 210 drugs was formulated， covering anti-tumor drugs， endocrine system drugs， nervous system drugs， immunomodulators， anti-infective drugs， cardiovascular system drugs， hematological system drugs， urinary system drugs， obstetrics and gynecology drugs， dermatological drugs and other categories. Compared with international hazardous drug lists， 25 newly included hazardous drugs were added， including 15 anti-tumor drugs， 6 Chinese patent medicines and 4 biological agents. In addition， 88 Chinese patent medicines that may have potential occupational exposure risks are listed in the appendix for reference by medical institutions in management. CONCLUSIONS The development of this consensus closely aligns with the actual clinical drug use in China， with a scientific and rigorous methodology， and can serve as a reference for medical institutions at all levels to standardize the management of hazardous drugs and prevent and control occupational exposure risks.

A Salmonella bacteriophage,PJN025,was isolated from wastewater and characterized for its biological properties,including whole-genome sequencing and assessment of therapeutic poten-tial in animal infection models.Transmission electron microscopy classified it within the Caudovi-ricetes family.PJN025 selectively lysed S.typhimurium and S.enteritidis with an incubation period of approximately 10 min,a burst time of 80 min,and an average burst size of approximately 132 PFU/cell,demonstrating effective bactericidal activity.The phage showed robust stability at temperatures ranging from 30 to 70 ℃ and pH levels from 3 to 12.Whole-genome sequencing re-vealed a complete genome length of 46 478 bp with a G+C content of 45.9％,consisting of 82 open reading frames and one tRNA.No known virulence or resistance genes were found.In Galleria mellonella infection model,a survival rate of 70％was achieved with a preventative dose of 1 × 108 PFU/mL PJN025,compared to a 5％survival rate in the positive control group after 48 h of bacterial challenge.In SPF mice infected with S.typhimurium via intraperitoneal injection,all mices in the positive control group died within five days.However,in the co-infection group treated with 1×108 PFU/mL PJN025,a promising survival rate of 60％was observed.This study showed that the bacteriophage PJN025 had strong specificity,high lytic efficiency,good acid and alkali tol-erance,strong heat resistance,and good safety and prevention effects,providing materials and ex-perimental basis for the development of subsequent phage products.

Objective To discuss the mechanism of the streaking artifact of Star-volumetric interpolated body examination(Star-VIBE)sequence and the influence of phase coding on it.Methods Twenty-six volunteers underwent many times Star-VIBE sequences scanning with different phase coding(320,640,960,1 280,1 600).The severity of streaking artifact of images in different phase cod-ing groups was evaluated qualitatively.The signal-to-noise ratio(SNR)of muscle,thyroid and contrast-enhanced artery,contrast-to-noise ratio(CNR)between soft tissues,and CNR between muscle and contrast-enhanced artery of the images in different phase coding groups were evaluated quantitatively.Results In qualitative evaluation,with the number of phase coding increased,the streaking artifact decreased(H=83.022,P＜0.005).In quantitative evaluation,SNRmuscle,SNRthyroid,SNRcontrast-enhanced artery and CNRcontrast-enhanced gradually increased with the increase of phase coding number(SNRmuscle:F=6.913,P＜0.005;SNRthyroid:F=3.930,P=0.005;SNRcontrast-enhanced artery:F=6.980,P＜0.005;CNRcontrast-enhanced:F=6.482,P＜0.005),while CNRsoft tissue showed no statistical difference(F=1.114,P=0.339).Conclusion There is streaking artifact on the image of the Star-VIBE sequence,which can be reduced by increas-ing the number of phase coding appropriately.The most suitable phase coding is 960.

Objective:To construct an evidence-based practice program for dietary management of patients with non-dialysis chronic kidney disease (CKD) based on best evidence and to evaluate the effectiveness of its application.Methods:The best evidence for dietary management of non-dialysis CKD patients was summarized. From September to October 2022, following the evidence clinical transformation model of the Fudan University Centre for Evidence-based Nursing, the best evidence was screened and evidence-based practice program were developed, taking into account patients' wishes, expert opinions, and clinical contexts. From November 2022 through March 2023, baseline reviews, analysis of barriers and facilitators were implemented. Between April 2023 and April 2024, evidence-based practice was carried out in the Department of Nephrology of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University to compare the implementation rate of review indicators at the system, practitioner, and patient levels, and practitioners' knowledge before and after the application of evidence.Results:A total of 14 review indicators were developed. The implementation rate of the 12 review indicators and the practitioners' knowledge of the CKD diet were elevated after the evidence-based practice ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:Evidence-based practice program for dietary management of patients with non-dialysis CKD has a positive effect on improving practitioners' knowledge of non-dialysis CKD diets, implementation rate of dietary management behaviors, and patients' dietary behaviors.

Objective:To investigate the anti-inflammatory activity of alcohol extract of Polyrhachis dives(PDAEs)against rheumatoid arthritis(RA)in vitro and in vivo.Methods:In vivo and in vitro anti-RA inflammatory response of PDAEs was investigated using a rat model of collagenous arthritis induced by bovine type Ⅱ collagen and an LPS-induced RAW264.7 cell inflammatory model.Results:PDAEs inhibited the polarization of M1 type macrophages in vivo and in vitro,reduced expressions of TNF-α,IL-1β,IL-6,iNOS,and promoted polarization of M2 type macrophages,enhanced expressions of anti-inflammatory cytokines,such as IL-10 and TGF-β,so as to achieve the anti-inflammatory effect.The experiments in vivo also showed that PDAEs had the immunomodulatory effect,the potential mechanism may be the regulation of Th17/Treg balance by regulating the expression of PD-1 and TGF-β,thus correcting the over-strong autoimmune response.Conclusion:PDAEs may reduce the inflammatory reaction of RA through anti-inflam-matory and immunomodulatory effects.
