ObjectiveTo analyze the data structure and standards of rehabilitation outpatient medical records, to provide data support for improving the quality of rehabilitation outpatient care and developing medical insurance payment policies. MethodsBased on the normative documents issued by the National Health Commission, Basic Standards for Medical Record Writing and Standards for Electronic Medical Record Sharing Documents, in accordance with the Quality Management Regulations for Outpatient (Emergency) Diagnosis and Treatment Information Pages (Trial), reference to the framework of the World Health Organization Family of International Classifications (WHO-FICs), the data framework and content of rehabilitation outpatient medical records were determined, and the data standards were discussed. ResultsThis study constructed a data framework for rehabilitation outpatient medical records, including four main components: patient basic information, visit process information, diagnosis and treatment information, and cost information. Three major reference classifications of WHO-FICs, International Classification of Diseases, International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health, and International Classification of Health Interventions,were used to establish diagnostic standards and standardized terminology, as well as coding disease diagnosis, functional description, functional assessment, and rehabilitation interventions, to improve the quality of data reporting, and level of quality control in rehabilitation. ConclusionThe structuring and standardization of rehabilitation outpatient medical records are the foundation for sharing of rehabilitation data. The using of the three major classifications of WHO-FICs is valuable for the terminology and coding of disease diagnosis, functional description and assessment, and intervention in rehabilitation outpatient medical records, which is significant for sharing and interconnectivity of rehabilitation outpatient data, as well as for optimizing the quality and safety of rehabilitation medical services.

ObjectiveTo explore the standardization of inpatient rehabilitation medical record summary sheet, encompassing its structure, content and data standards, to enhance the standardization level of inpatient rehabilitation medical record summary sheet, improve data reporting quality, and provide accurate data support for medical insurance payment, hospital performance evaluation, and rehabilitation discipline evaluation. MethodsBased on the relevant specifications of the National Health Commission's Basic Norms for Medical Record Writing, Specifications for Sharing Documents of Electronic Medical Records, and Quality Management and Control Indicators for Inpatient Medical Record Summary Sheet (2016 Edition), this study analyzed the structure and content of the inpatient rehabilitation medical record summary sheet. The study systematically applied the three major reference classifications of the World Health Organization Family of International Classifications, International Classification of Diseases (ICD-10/ICD-11, ICD-9-CM-3), International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF), and International Classification of Health Interventions (ICHI Beta-3), for disease diagnosis, functional description and assessment, and rehabilitation intervention, forming a standardized terminology system and coding methods. ResultsThe inpatient rehabilitation medical record summary sheet covered four major sections: inpatient information, hospitalization information, diagnosis and treatment information, and cost information. ICD-10/ICD-11 were the standards and coding tools for admission and discharge diagnoses in the inpatient rehabilitation medical record summary sheet. The three functional assessment tools recommended by ICD-11, the 36-item version of World Health Organization Disability Assessment Schedule 2.0, Brief Model Disability Survey and Generic Functioning domains, as well as ICF, were used for rehabilitation functioning assessment and the coding of outcomes. ICHI Beta-3 and ICD-9-CM-3 were used for coding surgical procedures and operations in the medical record summary sheet, and also for coding rehabilitation intervention items. ConclusionThe inpatient rehabilitation medical record summary sheet is a summary of the relevant content of the rehabilitation medical record and a tool for reporting inpatient rehabilitation data. It needs to be refined and optimized according to the characteristics of rehabilitation, with necessary data supplemented. The application of ICD-11/ICD-10, ICF and ICHI Beta-3/ICD-9-CM-3 classification standards would comprehensively promote the accuracy of inpatient diagnosis of diseases and functions. Based on ICD-11 and ICF, relevant functional assessment result data would be added, and ICHI Beta-3/ICD-9-CM-3 should be used to code rehabilitation interventions. Improving the quality of rehabilitation medical records and inpatient rehabilitation medical record summary sheet is an important part of rehabilitation quality control, and also lays an evidence-based data foundation for the analysis and application of inpatient rehabilitation medical record summary sheet.

This study aims to investigate the potential effect of the water extract of fresh Rehmanniae Radix on hypercholesterolemia in mice that was induced by a high-fat and high-cholesterol diet and explore its possible mechanism from bile acid reabsorption. Male C57BL/6 mice were randomly assigned into the following groups: control, model, low-and high-dose(4 and 8 g·kg~(-1), respectively) fresh Rehmanniae Radix, and positive drug(simvastatin, 0.05 g·kg~(-1)). Other groups except the control group were fed with a high-fat and high-cholesterol diet for 6 consecutive weeks to induce hypercholesterolemia. From the 6th week, mice were administrated with corresponding drugs daily via gavage for additional 6 weeks, while continuing to be fed with a high-fat and high-cholesterol diet. Serum levels of total cholesterol(TC), triglycerides(TG), low density lipoprotein-cholesterol(LDL-c), high density lipoprotein-cholesterol(HDL-c), and total bile acid(TBA), as well as liver TC and TG levels and fecal TBA level, were determined by commercial assay kits. Hematoxylin-eosin(HE) staining, oil red O staining, and transmission electron microscopy were performed to observe the pathological changes in the liver. Three livers samples were randomly selected from each of the control, model, and high-dose fresh Rehmanniae Radix groups for high-throughput transcriptome sequencing. Differentially expressed genes were mined and KEGG pathway enrichment analysis was performed to predict the key pathways and target genes of the water extract of fresh Rehmanniae Radix in the treatment of hypercholesterolemia. RT-qPCR was employed to measure the mRNA levels of cholesterol 7α-hydroxylase(CYP7A1) and cholesterol 27α-hydroxylase(CYP27A1) in the liver. Western blot was employed to determine the protein levels of CYP7A1 and CYP27A1 in the liver as well as farnesoid X receptor(FXR), apical sodium-dependent bile acid transporter(ASBT), and ileum bile acid-binding protein(I-BABP) in the ileum. The results showed that the water extract of fresh Rehmanniae Radix significantly lowered the levels of TC and TG in the serum and liver, as well as the level of LDL-c in the serum. Conversely, it elevated the level of HDL-c in the serum and TBA in feces. No significant difference was observed in the level of TBA in the serum among groups. HE staining, oil red O staining, and transmission electron microscopy showed that the water extract reduced the accumulation of lipid droplets in the liver. Further mechanism studies revealed that the water extract of fresh Rehmanniae Radix significantly down-regulated the protein levels of FXR and bile acid reabsorption-related proteins ASBT and I-BABP. Additionally, it enhanced CYP7A1 and CYP27A1, the key enzymes involved in bile acid synthesis. Therefore, it is hypothesized that the water extract of fresh Rehmanniae Radix may exert an anti-hypercholesterolemic effect by regulating FXR/ASBT/I-BABP signaling, inhibiting bile acid reabsorption, and increasing bile acid excretion, thus facilitating the conversion of cholesterol to bile acids.

The study aims to elucidate the existence forms(original constituents and metabolites) of Notoginseng Radix et Rhizoma in rats and reveal its metabolic pathways. After Notoginseng Radix et Rhizoma was administered orally once a day for seven consecutive days to rats, all urine and feces samples were collected for seven days, while the blood samples were obtained 6 h after the last administration. Using the ultra high performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole time-of-flight tandem mass spectrometry(UHPLC-Q-TOF-MS/MS) technique, this study identified 6, 73, and 156 existence forms of Notoginseng Radix et Rhizoma in the rat plasma, urine, and feces samples, respectively. Among them, 101 compounds were identified as new existence forms, and 13 original constituents were identified by comparing with reference compounds. The metabolic reactions of constituents from Notoginseng Radix et Rhizoma were mainly deglycosylation, dehydration, hydroxylation, hydrogenation, dehydrogenation, acetylation, and amino acid conjugation. Furthermore, the possible in vivo metabolic pathways of protopanaxatriol(PPT) in rats were proposed. Through comprehensive analysis of the liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry(LC-MS) data, isomeric compounds were discriminated, and the planar chemical structures of 32 metabolites were clearly identified. According to the literature, 48 original constituents possess antitumor and cardiovascular protective bioactivities. Additionally, 32 metabolites were predicted to have similar bioactivities by SuperPred. This research lays the foundation for further exploring the in vivo effective forms of Notoginseng Radix et Rhizoma.

BACKGROUND: This study aimed to investigate programmed death-ligand 1 tumor proportion score in predicting the safety and efficacy of PD-1/PD-L1 antibody-based therapy in treating patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) in a real-world setting. METHODS: This retrospective, multicenter, observational study enrolled adult patients who received PD-1/PD-L1 antibody-based therapy in China and met the following criteria: (1) had pathologically confirmed, unresectable stage III-IV NSCLC; (2) had a baseline PD-L1 tumor proportion score (TPS); and (3) had confirmed efficacy evaluation results after PD-1/PD-L1 treatment. Logistic regression, Kaplan-Meier analysis, and Cox regression were used to assess the progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), and immune-related adverse events (irAEs) as appropriate. RESULTS: A total of 409 patients, 65.0% ( n = 266) with a positive PD-L1 TPS (≥1%) and 32.8% ( n = 134) with PD-L1 TPS ≥50%, were included in this study. Cox regression confirmed that patients with a PD-L1 TPS ≥1% had significantly improved PFS (hazard ratio [HR] 0.747, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.573-0.975, P = 0.032). A total of 160 (39.1%) patients experienced 206 irAEs, and 27 (6.6%) patients experienced 31 grade 3-5 irAEs. The organs most frequently associated with irAEs were the skin (52/409, 12.7%), thyroid (40/409, 9.8%), and lung (34/409, 8.3%). Multivariate logistic regression revealed that a PD-L1 TPS ≥1% (odds ratio [OR] 1.713, 95% CI 1.054-2.784, P = 0.030) was an independent risk factor for irAEs. Other risk factors for irAEs included pretreatment absolute lymphocyte count >2.5 × 10 9 /L (OR 3.772, 95% CI 1.377-10.329, P = 0.010) and pretreatment absolute eosinophil count >0.2 × 10 9 /L (OR 2.006, 95% CI 1.219-3.302, P = 0.006). Moreover, patients who developed irAEs demonstrated improved PFS (13.7 months vs. 8.4 months, P <0.001) and OS (28.0 months vs. 18.0 months, P = 0.007) compared with patients without irAEs. CONCLUSIONS A positive PD-L1 TPS (≥1%) was associated with improved PFS and an increased risk of irAEs in a real-world setting. The onset of irAEs was associated with improved PFS and OS in patients with advanced NSCLC receiving PD-1/PD-L1-based therapy.

OBJECTIVE: To compare clinical effect of anterior tibial plateau fracture line and anterior tibial fenestration reduction in treating anterolateral tibial plateau column fracture combined with posterior lateral column collapse. METHODS: Fifty-two patients with Schatzker typeⅡ tibial plateau anterolateral column fracture combined with posterolateral column collapse admitted from January 2016 to December 2021 were retrospectively analyzed and divided into two groups according to fracture reduction methods. There were 27 patients in fracture line group, including 19 males and 8 females, aged from 26 to 62 years old with an average of (43.2±11.4) years old;the time from injury to operation ranged from 4 to 8 days with an average of (5.8±1.5) days;treated with reduction and internal fixation via fracture line of lateral platform front. There were 25 patients in fenestrate group, including 13 males and 12 females, aged from 22 to 69 years old with an average of (40.8±11.1) years old;the time from injury to operation ranged from 4 to 8 days with an average of (6.0±1.4) days;treated with tibial fenestration reduction and internal fixation. The amount of bone graft, operation time, fracture healing time and complications were compared between two groups. Posterior slope angle (PSA) and posterior slope angle of the lateral tibial plateau was compared before surgery, 2 days and 6 months after surgery. The knee function was evaluated by Hospital for Speical Surgery (HSS) at 2 days and 6 months after surgery, respectively. Fracture reduction was evaluated by Rasmussen anatomic score of knee joint. RESULTS: Both of group were followed up from 12 to 24 months (16.0±3.4) months. No redisplacement of fracture, internal and external inversion deformity of knee joint, or instability of knee joint were found between two groups during follow-up. In fracture line group, 1 patient occurred wound fat liquefaction and 2 patients occurred lower limb intermuscular venous thrombosis occurred. In fenestration group, 1 patient occurred joint stiffness, 1 patient occurred lower limb intermuscular venous thrombosis, and 1 patient occurred superficial wound infection;there were no significant difference in complications between two groups (P>0.05). Bone graft volume, operative time and fracture healing time in fracture line group were (3.6±2.3) cm³, (123.4±18.2) min and (13.8±1.8) weeks, while in feneplast group were (4.8±1.8) cm³, (135.5±22.5) min and (15.2±2.0) weeks, respectively;the difference between two groups was statistically significant (P<0.05). The collapse depth of lateral platform articular surface at 2 days and 6 months after surgery were (0.8±0.1) and (0.9±0.1) mm in fracture line group, which were lower than those in fenestration group (0.9±0.1) and (1.1±0.1) mm, respectively (P<0.05). After 2 days and 6 months, , PSA in fracture line group were (9.4±1.5) ° and (10.1±1.9) °, respectively, which were lower than those in fenestration group (10.5±1.5) ° and (11.3±1.9) ° (P<0.05). Rasmussen anatomical scores in fracture line group at 2 days and 6 months were 16(16, 18) and 16(14, 16) points, respectively, which were better than those in fenestrated group (16, 16) and 14(14, 16) points (P< 0.05). The collapse depth, PSA and Rasmussen anatomical score between two groups were better than those before surgery (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in HSS score between two groups at 2 days after surgery (P>0.05). At six months after surgery, HSS score in fracture line group (86.7±3.6) was higher than that in fenestration group (84.1±3.91) (P<0.05). HSS score at 6 months after surgery was better than that at 2 days after surgery (P<0.05). CONCLUSION Both anterior tibial plateau fracture line and anterior tibial fenestration could be used to treat anterolateral tibial plateau column fracture with posterior lateral column collapse. Compared with fenestration group, transfracture line group had advantages of less intraoperative bone grafting, shorter operative time, shorter fracture healing time, better articular surface reduction effect and better knee functional recovery.

The aim of this investigation was to determine the optimal storage medium for testicular hypothermic transportation and identify the ideal concentration for the application of the protective agent 5-aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA). Furthermore, this study aimed to explore the underlying mechanism of the protective effects of 5-ALA. First, we collected and stored mouse testicular fragments in different media, including Hank's balanced salt solution (HBSS; n = 5), Dulbecco's Modified Eagle Medium/Nutrient Mixture F-12 (DMEM/F12; n = 5), and alpha-minimum essential medium (αMEM; n = 5). Storage of testicular tissue in HBSS preserved the integrity of testicular morphology better than that in the DMEM/F12 group ( P < 0.05) and the αMEM group ( P < 0.01). Testicular fragments were subsequently placed in HBSS with various concentrations of 5-ALA (0 [control], 1 mmol l -1 , 2 mmol l -1 , and 5 mmol l -1 ) to determine the most effective concentration of 5-ALA. The 2 mmol l -1 5-ALA group ( n = 3) presented the highest positive rate of spermatogonial stem cells compared with those in the control, 1 mmol l -1 , and 5 mmol l -1 5-ALA groups. Finally, the tissue fragments were preserved in HBSS with control ( n = 3) and 2 mmol l -1 5-ALA ( n = 3) under low-temperature conditions. A comparative analysis was performed against fresh testes ( n = 3) to elucidate the underlying mechanism of 5-ALA. Gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) for WikiPathways revealed that the p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathway was downregulated in the 2 mmol l -1 5-ALA group compared with that in the control group (normalized enrichment score [NES] = -1.57, false discovery rate [FDR] = 0.229, and P = 0.019). In conclusion, these data suggest that using 2 mmol l -1 5-ALA in HBSS effectively protected the viability of spermatogonial stem cells upon hypothermic transportation.

Male infertility can result from impaired sperm motility caused by multiple morphological abnormalities of the flagella (MMAF). Distinct projections encircling the central microtubules of the spermatozoal axoneme play pivotal roles in flagellar bending and spermatozoal movement. Mammalian sperm-associated antigen 17 ( SPAG17 ) encodes a conserved axonemal protein of cilia and flagella, forming part of the C1a projection of the central apparatus, with functions related to ciliary/flagellar motility, skeletal growth, and male fertility. This study investigated two novel homozygous SPAG17 mutations (M1: NM_206996.2, c.829+1G>T, p.Asp212_Glu276del; and M2: c.2120del, p.Leu707*) identified in four infertile patients from two consanguineous Pakistani families. These patients displayed the MMAF phenotype confirmed by Papanicolaou staining and scanning electron microscopy assays of spermatozoa. Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) of patients' spermatozoa also revealed a significant decrease in SPAG17 mRNA expression, and immunofluorescence staining showed the absence of SPAG17 protein signals along the flagella. However, no apparent ciliary-related symptoms or skeletal malformations were observed in the chest X-rays of any of the patients. Transmission electron microscopy of axoneme cross-sections from the patients showed incomplete C1a projection and a higher frequency of missing microtubule doublets 1 and 9 compared with those from fertile controls. Immunofluorescence staining and Western blot analyses of spermatogenesis-associated protein 17 (SPATA17), a component of the C1a projection, and sperm-associated antigen 6 (SPAG6), a marker of the spring layer, revealed disrupted expression of both proteins in the patients' spermatozoa. Altogether, these findings demonstrated that SPAG17 maintains the integrity of spermatozoal flagellar axoneme, expanding the phenotypic spectrum of SPAG17 mutations in humans.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the expression of long non-coding RNA plasmacytoma variant translocation 1 (lncRNA-PVT1) in children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) and its correlation with prognosis. METHODS: Clinical data of 64 children with ALL were retrospectively analyzed. All children received standardized treatment according to CCLG-ALL-2015 protocol, and their overall survival (OS) was followed up. Bone marrow examination and lncRNA-PVT1 examination were performed before first diagnosis (T1), early intensive therapy (T2), consolidation therapy (T3), delayed intensive therapy (T4), and maintenance therapy (T5). Bone marrow samples of 25 children with thrombocytopenic purpura were collected during the same period as control group. LncRNA-PVT1 expression was compared between ALL group and control group. ALL children were divided into high-risk group and non-high-risk group according to the risk factors at T3, and the expression changes of lncRNA-PVT1 were analyzed. The correlation of lncRNA-PVT1 with clinical features and prognosis of ALL children was analyzed. RESULTS: The expression of lncRNA-PVT1 in ALL children was significantly higher than that in control group (P < 0.001). ROC curve analysis showed that the area under curve (AUC) of lncRNA-PVT1 for ALL diagnosis was 0.919(95%CI : 0.863-0.975), the optimal cut-off value was 1.465, sensitivity was 87.50%, and specificity was 98.80%. ALL children were divided into low lncRNA-PVT1 group (lncRNA-PVT1< 2.18) and high lncRNA-PVT1 group (lncRNA-PVT1≥2.18) according to the median lncRNA-PVT1 value (2.18). The high lncRNA-PVT1 group had higher Day 33 MRD compared with low lncRNA-PVT1 group (P < 0.01). At T3, T4 and T5, the expression of lncRNA-PVT1 in high-risk group was significantly higher than that in non-highrisk group (all P < 0.01). The expression of lncRNA-PVT1 were significantly increased in high-risk group at 5 time points (P < 0.001), while, there was no significant difference in non-high-risk group (P >0.05). The median OS of low lncRNA-PVT1 group was 35(9-37) months, which was significantly higher than 25(5-33) months of high lncRNA-PVT1 group (P < 0.01). Univariate and multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that Day 33 MRD (>10^-2) and lncRNA-PVT1 (≥2.18) were independent risk factors for OS in ALL children (both P < 0.05). CONCLUSION LncRNA-PVT1 is involved in the pathogenesis of ALL in children and closely related to the prognosis.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the efficacy and adverse reactions of CAG regimen combined with venetoclax, chidamide, and azacitidine in the treatment of elderly patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML). METHODS: 15 elderly AML patients aged≥60 years old who were admitted to the Hematology Department of our hospital from May 2022 to October 2023 were treated with the CAG regimen combined with venetoclax, chidamide and azacitidine, and the efficacy, treatment-related adverse events, overall survival (OS) and event-free survival (EFS) were analyzed. RESULTS: After one course of treatment, 11 out of 15 patients achieved complete response (CR), 3 patients achieved CR with incomplete hematologic recovery (CRi), and 1 patient died due to prior infection before efficacy evaluation, and the overall response rate (ORR) was 93.3% (14/15). The median follow-up time was 131 (19-275) days, with median OS and EFS both remaining unreached. Next-generation sequencing (NGS) analysis showed that among the 15 patients, 13 were detected with gene mutations, and there were 7 genes with mutation frequencies of more than 10%, including ASXL1 (4 cases), RUNX1 (4 cases), BCOR (3 cases), DNMT3A (3 cases), STAG2 (2 cases), IDH1/2 (2 cases), and TET (2 cases). Among the 13 patients with detectable mutations, 12 patients achieved composite response (CR+CRi). The average recovery time of white blood cell count was 14.6 days after chemotherapy, and the average recovery time of platelets was 7.7 days after chemotherapy. The main adverse event was myelosuppression, with 10 patients accompanied by infection. Except for 1 patient who died due to septic shock during chemotherapy, no patients experienced serious complications such as heart, liver, or kidney damage during the treatment process. CONCLUSION The CACAG+V regimen, which combines the CAG regimen with venetoclax, chidamide, and azacitidine, can be applied in the treatment of elderly AML patients, demonstrating good safety and induction remission rate.
