Objective To explore the barriers of implementing collaborative chronic wound management within medical consortium and provide references for ensuring continuous care for chronic wound patients.Methods Using purposive and snowball sampling methods,14 specialist nurses participating in chronic wound collaborative management across medical consortium in 7 provinces/municipalities(Beijing,Shanghai,Zhejiang,Sichuan,etc.)were selected for semi-structured interviews between December 2023 and January 2024.Data were analyzed via content analysis.Results Totally 4 themes and 8 subthemes were identified,including management and organizational level(the management system needs improvement;the function of medical information mutual recognition has not been fully realized),resource and technology level(there are insufficient nursing resources at the grassroots hospitals;the specialized nursing capabilities of wound nurses at grassroots hospitals need to be enhanced),patient and demand level(patients' trust is insufficient;patients' concepts are rigid),information technology and support level(the informatization construction of grassroots hospitals lags behind;the intelligence of information systems is insufficient).Conclusion Wound specialist nurses encounter various difficulties when participating in the coordinated management of chronic wounds within the medical consortium.The management and organizational system constraints hinder the effectiveness of the nursing coordination;the resource and technology gap affects the implementation of graded wound care in the region;the lack of patient trust and misconceptions intensify the resistance to coordination;the lagging in information technology construction limits the innovative development of nursing coordination.

In this study, araucarene diterpenes, characterized by a pimarene skeleton with a variably oxidized side chain at C-13, were investigated. A total of 16 araucarene diterpenoids and their derivatives were isolated from the woods of Agathis dammara, including 11 previously unreported compounds: dammaradione (1), dammarones D-G (2, 5, 14, 15), dammaric acids B-F (8-12), and dammarol (16). The structures of these new compounds were elucidated using high-resolution electrospray ionization mass spectroscopy (HR-ESI-MS) and one-dimensional/two-dimensional (1D/2D) nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), while their absolute configurations were determined through the electronic circular dichroism (ECD) exciton chirality method and Snatzke's method. The hypoglycemic activity of all isolated compounds was evaluated using a transgenic zebrafish model, and a structure-activity relationship (SAR) analysis was conducted. Araucarone (3) and dammaric acid C (9), serving as representative compounds, demonstrated significant hypoglycemic effects on zebrafish. The primary mechanism involves the promotion of pancreatic β cell regeneration and glucose uptake. Specifically, these compounds enhance the differentiation of pancreatic endocrine precursor cells (PEP cells) into β cells in zebrafish.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the clinical phenotype, pregnancy outcome and follow-up of fetuses with 15q11.2BP1-BP2 microdeletions in order to provide a basis for prenatal and reproductive consultation. METHODS: From March 2019 to December 2023, 20 fetuses who were diagnosed with 15q11.2BP1-BP2 microdeletion syndrome at the Prenatal Diagnosis Center of General Hospital of Ningxia Medical University were selected as the study subjects. Results of genetic testing and ultrasound examination, outcome of pregnancy, and postnatal follow-up were retrospectively analyzed. This study has been approved by the Ethics Committee of General Hospital of Ningxia Medical University ([2020]0520B). RESULTS: None of the 20 fetuses was found to have chromosomal abnormality, whilst all were found to harbor a 15q11.2 BP1-BP2 microdeletion by low-depth whole genome sequencing (CNV-seq). The range of deletions was determined as 0.26 ~ 0.87 Mb, and all were rated as pathogenic CNVs. Three fetuses had abnormal ultrasound findings, including 1 with widened renal pelvis, 1 with agenesis of corpus callosum, and 1 with nuchal fold thickening. Parental verification in 10 couples verified that two fetal deletions were de novo, whilst the remaining eight were inherited from a phenotypically normal parent. Following genetic counseling, three couples had opted to terminate the pregnancy, whilst the remaining 17 had continued with the pregnancy until delivery. The 17 liveborns were followed up for 2 months to 5 years, with no obvious abnormality in growth and development noted. CONCLUSION CNV-seq plays an important role in the prenatal diagnosis of 15q11.2 BP1-BP2 microdeletions. Such deletions may not always lead to disease phenotypes. Individualized consultation and long-term follow-up, in combination with intrauterine ultrasound and parental verification are necessary.

Objective To evaluate the performance of two molecular point-of-care testing(POCT)prod-ucts in the diagnosis of influenza A virus(Flu A)and influenza B virus(Flu B)of clinical samples,and pre-liminarily evaluate the clinical diagnostic value of the changes of infection-related indicators in peripheral blood.Methods A total of 491 oropharyngeal swabs from patients with influenza-like symptoms who were treated in the hospital were recruited into this study from November 1,2019 to June 30,2023.These swabs were collected using reverse transcription real-time quantitative fluorescent polymerase chain reaction(RT-qPCR),and two POCT molecular products,XpertTM Xpress Flu/RSV and EasyNAT? Flu Assay,respectively.The diagnostic performance of two POCT molecular products was analyzed using RT-qPCR reaction as a standard.According to the results of RT-qPCR method,the subjects were divided into Flu A positive group,Flu B positive group and negative group(both Flu A and Flu B were negative).The levels of indicators in pe-ripheral blood of the three groups were compared to evaluate the value of these indicators in the clinical diag-nosis of Flu A and Flu B.Results Among the 491 patient specimens,the XpertTM Xpress Flu/RSV assay showed the sensitivity for Flu A was 96.88%,and the specificity was 99.75%,and the sensitivity for Flu B was 100.00%,and the specificity was 100.00%.EasyNAT? Flu Assay assay showed the sensitivity for Flu A was 94.79%,and the specificity was 96.81%,and the sensitivity for Flu B was 100.00%,and the specificity was 100.00%.And two POCT molecular methods performed well consistency(Kappa value was 0.974).There was no significant difference in the levels of C-reactive protein and serum amyloid A among the negative group,Flu A positive group,and Flu B positive group(P>0.05).But the levels of white blood cell count in the negative group were higher than those in the Flu A positive group and Flu B positive group(P<0.01).Conclusion In this paper,two typical molecular POCT products are studied.Their sensitivity and specificity are highly consistent with the results of RT-qPCR.Molecular POCT products have the advantages of flexibil-ity and rapidity,which are of great value for the improvement of clinical diagnosis and treatment.Molecular detection combined with peripheral blood infection related indicators is helpful for the early diagnosis of influ-enza virus infectious diseases.

OBJECTIVE To analyze the compositional differences between Fructus Tritici Levis and Triticum aestivum， and to provide reference for identification and quality control of both. METHODS Twenty batches of Fructus Tritici Levis and three batches of T. aestivum were collected， and their fingerprints were acquired by high-performance liquid chromatography and the similarities were evaluated by the Evaluation System of Similarity of Chromatographic Fingerprints of Traditional Chinese Medicine （2012 version）. Cluster analysis （CA）， principal component analysis （PCA） and orthogonal partial least squares-discriminant analysis （OPLS-DA） were performed to analyze the difference of Fructus Tritici Levis and T. aestivum from different regions， and the differential components were screened. The contents of the six identified components in Fructus Tritici Levis and T. aestivum were determined. RESULTS The similarities of the fingerprints of Fructus Tritici Levis ranged from 0.928 to 0.996， and the relative similarities of T. aestivum with Fructus Tritici Levis ranged from 0.761 to 0.773. A total of 19 common peaks were calibrated， and six components including linolenic acid， linoleic acid， 5-heptadecylresorcinol， 5-nonadodecylresorcinol， 5- heneicosylresorcinol， and 5-tricosylresorcinol were identified. The results of CA and PCA showed that Fructus Tritici Levis and T. aestivum could be clearly distinguished； the distribution of Fructus Tritici Levis from Anhui province was relatively concentrated. The results of OPLS-DA showed that linolenic acid， linoleic acid， and other six unknown compounds were the differential components between Fructus Tritici Levis and T. aestivum. The average contents of the six identified components in Fructus Tritici Levis were 0.100 9， 1.094 0， 0.005 1， 0.030 9， 0.098 2，and 0.024 8 mg/g， respectively； the contents of linolenic acid and linoleic acid in Fructus Tritici Levis were significantly higher than those in T. aestivum （P＜0.05）.CONCLUSIONS The established qualitative and quantitative methods are simple and reliable， and can be used for the identification and quality evaluation of Fructus Tritici Levis and T. aestivum. The identified differential components， such as linolenic acid and linoleic acid， can also provide clues for the differentiation and pharmacological study of Fructus Tritici Levis and T. aestivum.
