OBJECTIVE To investigate the efficacy and safety of ropivacaine combined with oxycodone for the analgesia of iliac fascia nerve block in patients undergoing hip replacement. METHODS Sixty-six patients who underwent hip replacement at the Central Hospital of Enshi Tujia and Miao Autonomous Prefecture from October 2023 to April 2024 were selected and randomly divided into observation group and control group， with 33 cases in each group. Before induction of anesthesia， ultrasound-guided iliac fascial nerve block was performed. Patients in the observation group were treated with 0.33% ropivacaine+0.1 mg/kg oxycodone injection mixture 30 mL， and patients in the control group were treated with 0.33% ropivacaine injection 30 mL. The time of first postoperative rescue analgesia， 24 h postoperative analgesic drug consumption， sensory block and motor block effective and maintenance time， satisfaction degree， numerical rating scale （NRS） pain score， Ramsay sedation score， muscle strength score， heart rate （HR）， mean arterial pressure （MAP）， oxygen saturation（SpO2）， sleep score， anxiety score， and the occurrence of adverse reactions in the two groups were all recorded. RESULTS Compared with the control group， the first rescue analgesia time after operation was significantly prolonged in the observation group， and 24 h postoperative analgesic drug consumption after operation decreased； the effective time of sensory block was significantly shortened， and the maintenance time of sensory block was significantly prolonged， and the satisfaction score was higher； the NRS pain score after iliac fascia nerve block was lower， HR and MAP were lower， and the anxiety score and sleep score 24 and 48 h after operation were lower （P＜0.05）. In terms of safety， patients in both groups had adverse reactions after operation， such as hypertension， nausea， vomiting， and dizziness， but there was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions between the two groups （P＞0.05）. CONCLUSIONS Oxycodone combined with ropivacaine shows good efficacy and safety for iliac fascial nerve block analgesia in patients undergoing hip replacement， can significantly prolong the analgesic time of ropivacaine， reduce postoperative analgesic drug consumption， improve the sleep quality of patients， and promote the rapid recovery of patients.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the clinical characteristics of drug-induced liver injury （DILI） induced by glucagon- like peptide-1 receptor agonists （GLP-1RAs）， and to provide a reference for safe clinical medication. METHODS Using search terms such as “GLP-1”“GLP-1RAs”“semaglutide” “drug-induced liver injury”， relevant studies from PubMed， Embase， the Cochrane Library， CNKI， Wanfang Data and VIP were retrieved. Descriptive analysis was performed on cases of DILI induced by GLP-1RAs. RESULTS A total of 11 studies， comprising 11 patients， were included. Among them， 4 were male （36.4%） and 7 were female （63.6%）. Patient ages ranged from 17 to 64 years； 5 patients （45.5%） were between 50 and 65 years old. Six patients were treated for diabetes， and five for weight loss. Ten patients had underlying diseases. The shortest time to the onset of DILI was 5 days after medication， while the longest was approximately 180 days. The DILIs induced by GLP-1RAs were mainly hepatocellular injury type （6 cases）； severity levels included severe （3 cases）， moderate （6 cases）， and mild （2 cases）. Gastrointestinal symptoms and jaundice were the most common clinical manifestations. The association between DILI and GLP- 1RAs was assessed as “probable” in 10 cases and “possible” in 1 case. All 11 patients improved after drug discontinuation and （or） corresponding treatment. CONCLUSIONS DILI induced by GLP-1RAs is relatively concentrated in patients aged 50-65， with a higher incidence in females. The risk may be further increased in patients with underlying diseases. Clinical use of these agents should enhance pharmaceutical care， including identification of high-risk populations and patient education （especially symptom recognition）. When relevant symptoms appear， the drug should be discontinued immediately， with liver-protective therapy initiated when necessary， to ensure patient safety of drug use.

Background::Although overnight fasting is recommended prior to endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP), the benefits and safety of high-carbohydrate fluid diet (CFD) intake 2 h before ERCP remain unclear. This study aimed to analyze whether high-CFD intake 2 h before ERCP can be safe and accelerate patients’ recovery.Methods::This prospective, multicenter, randomized controlled trial involved 15 tertiary ERCP centers. A total of 1330 patients were randomized into CFD group ( n = 665) and fasting group ( n = 665). The CFD group received 400 mL of maltodextrin orally 2 h before ERCP, while the control group abstained from food/water overnight (>6 h) before ERCP. All ERCP procedures were performed using deep sedation with intravenous propofol. The investigators were blinded but not the patients. The primary outcomes included postoperative fatigue and abdominal pain score, and the secondary outcomes included complications and changes in metabolic indicators. The outcomes were analyzed according to a modified intention-to-treat principle. Results::The post-ERCP fatigue scores were significantly lower at 4 h (4.1 ± 2.6 vs. 4.8 ± 2.8, t = 4.23, P <0.001) and 20 h (2.4 ± 2.1 vs. 3.4 ± 2.4, t= 7.94, P <0.001) in the CFD group, with least-squares mean differences of 0.48 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.26–0.71, P <0.001) and 0.76 (95% CI: 0.57–0.95, P <0.001), respectively. The 4-h pain scores (2.1 ± 1.7 vs. 2.2 ± 1.7, t = 2.60, P = 0.009, with a least-squares mean difference of 0.21 [95% CI: 0.05–0.37]) and positive urine ketone levels (7.7% [39/509] vs. 15.4% [82/533], χ2 = 15.13, P <0.001) were lower in the CFD group. The CFD group had significantly less cholangitis (2.1% [13/634] vs. 4.0% [26/658], χ2 = 3.99, P = 0.046) but not pancreatitis (5.5% [35/634] vs. 6.5% [43/658], χ2 = 0.59, P = 0.444). Subgroup analysis revealed that CFD reduced the incidence of complications in patients with native papilla (odds ratio [OR]: 0.61, 95% CI: 0.39–0.95, P = 0.028) in the multivariable models. Conclusion::Ingesting 400 mL of CFD 2 h before ERCP is safe, with a reduction in post-ERCP fatigue, abdominal pain, and cholangitis during recovery.Trail Registration::ClinicalTrials.gov, No. NCT03075280.

Aim To investigate the effects of hedysar-um polybotrys polysacchcaide(HPS)on gastric muco-sal inflammation of diabetic gastroparesis(DGP)rats and its possible mechanism.Methods A total of 62 male Wistar rats were randomly divided into the control group(12)and the modeling group(50).Except for the control group,the remaining rats were given multi-ple intraperitoneal injections of streptozotocin(25 mg ·kg-1 for three consecutive days)and irregular feed-ing of high-sugar and high-fat diet to replicate DGP model.The model rats were randomly divided into the model group(intragastatically purified water),low,medium and high dose HPS groups(50,100,200 mg ·kg-1·d-1)and the metformin group(90 mg· kg-1·d-1),respectively,and the control group was intragastrically treated with equal volume of purified water once a day for eight weeks.The pathological morphology of gastric mucosa was observed by HE stai-ning;the contents of TNF-α,IL-6,GAS and MTL in gastric mucosa were detected by ELISA.The expres-sion of JAK2 and STAT3mRNA in gastric mucosa was detected by RT-PCR.The levels of JAK2 and STAT3 proteins and their phosphorylation in gastric mucosa were detected by Western blot.Results Compared with the control group,the gastric mucosa of the model group showed a large number of inflammatory cells in-filtrated by HE staining.The contents of TNF-α and IL-6 significantly increased(P＜0.01),while the contents of GAS and MTL significantly decreased(P＜0.01).The mRNA expressions of JAK2 and STAT3 significantly increased(P＜0.05).p-JAK2and p-STAT3 significantly increased(P＜0.01).Compared with the model group,gastric mucosal inflammation was improved in each administration group.The con-tents of TNF-α and IL-6 decreased significantly,while the contents of GAS and MTL increased significantly.The mRNA expressions of JAK2 and STAT3 were sig-nificantly reduced.The expressions of p-JAK2 and p-STAT3 significantly decreased(P＜0.05).Conclu-sions HPS can improve gastric mucosal inflammation and repair gastric mucosal damage in rats,and its mechanism may be related to the regulation of JAK2/STAT3 signaling pathway.

Objective To monitor the susceptibility of clinical isolates to antimicrobial agents in tertiary hospitals in major regions of China in 2022.Methods Clinical isolates from 58 hospitals in China were tested for antimicrobial susceptibility using a unified protocol based on disc diffusion method or automated testing systems.Results were interpreted using the 2022 Clinical &Laboratory Standards Institute(CLSI)breakpoints.Results A total of 318 013 clinical isolates were collected from January 1,2022 to December 31,2022,of which 29.5％were gram-positive and 70.5％were gram-negative.The prevalence of methicillin-resistant strains in Staphylococcus aureus,Staphylococcus epidermidis and other coagulase-negative Staphylococcus species(excluding Staphylococcus pseudintermedius and Staphylococcus schleiferi)was 28.3％,76.7％and 77.9％,respectively.Overall,94.0％of MRSA strains were susceptible to trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole and 90.8％of MRSE strains were susceptible to rifampicin.No vancomycin-resistant strains were found.Enterococcus faecalis showed significantly lower resistance rates to most antimicrobial agents tested than Enterococcus faecium.A few vancomycin-resistant strains were identified in both E.faecalis and E.faecium.The prevalence of penicillin-susceptible Streptococcus pneumoniae was 94.2％in the isolates from children and 95.7％in the isolates from adults.The resistance rate to carbapenems was lower than 13.1％in most Enterobacterales species except for Klebsiella,21.7％-23.1％of which were resistant to carbapenems.Most Enterobacterales isolates were highly susceptible to tigecycline,colistin and polymyxin B,with resistance rates ranging from 0.1％to 13.3％.The prevalence of meropenem-resistant strains decreased from 23.5％in 2019 to 18.0％in 2022 in Pseudomonas aeruginosa,and decreased from 79.0％in 2019 to 72.5％in 2022 in Acinetobacter baumannii.Conclusions The resistance of clinical isolates to the commonly used antimicrobial agents is still increasing in tertiary hospitals.However,the prevalence of important carbapenem-resistant organisms such as carbapenem-resistant K.pneumoniae,P.aeruginosa,and A.baumannii showed a downward trend in recent years.This finding suggests that the strategy of combining antimicrobial resistance surveillance with multidisciplinary concerted action works well in curbing the spread of resistant bacteria.

Bluetongue virus is an arbovirus that seriously harms ruminants such as sheep,this study aims to investigate the molecular mechanism of bluetongue virus infection and host cell interferon antiviral immune response.The study was conducted to characterize the mRNA expression of inter-feron pathway genes by real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR,as well as Western blot analysis of MDA5,TRAF3,RIG-Ⅰ,and TBK1 protein expression in BHK-21 cells induced by BTV with a multiplicity of infections(MOI)of 1 for 18,24,and 36 h.The results showed that the most pro-nounced changes in the expression of interferon signaling pathway genes were observed at 24 h of induction,the gene mRNA expression levels of the IFN-α,IFN-β,RIG-Ⅰ,TBK1,MDA5,VISA,and TRAF3 genes were upregulated.However,the mRNA expression levels of IKKε and TRAF6 genes were downregulated.At the protein level,MDA5 and TBK1 proteins were upregulated while RIG-1 and TRAF3 proteins were downregulated,which showed that BTV infection induces a typeⅠ interferon immune response in BHK-21 cells.This study lays the foundation for further exploring the antiviral immunity mechanism of IFN-Ⅰ signaling pathway regulatory genes in host cells infected with BTV infection.

Objective:To compare the clinical characteristics and magnetic resonance imaging(MRI)features of isolated infarction of the splenium of the corpus callosum and reversible splenial lesion syndrome(RESLES).Methods:Clinical and imaging findings of 12 patients with a clinical diagnosis of isolated infarction of splenium of the corpus callosum and 13 patients with RESLES from Deportment of Neurology in Beijing Geriatric Hospital between December 2018 and November 2022 and follow-up results were retrospectively analyzed.Results:The patients with isolated infarction of SCC were older than the patients with RESLES(age of patients with isolated infarction of SCC: 67.6±9.2, age of patients with RESLES: 23.2±17.8).All patients with infarction had one to three risk factors for cerebrovascular diseases.Both two groups showed hyperintense lesions on T2WI, fluid-attenuated inversion recovery(FLAIR)and diffusion-weighted imaging(DWI), and hyperintense lesions on T1WI and a low apparent diffusion coefficient(ADC).Most SCC infarctions occurred unilaterally(one case with bilateral lesions and 12 cases with unilateral lesions), with irregular dot-like or patchy lesions.Nine patients in the infarction group completed the follow-up, during which the lesions did not disappear on the T1WI, T2WI, FLAIR and ADC sequence.One patient in this group had a recurrent stroke.In the RESLES group, all lesions were located on the midline of SCC, with round, oval or boomerang-shaped lesions.All patients in the RESLES group completed the follow-up, during which lesions either shrank or disappeared.Conclusions:Infarction and RESLES can both result in SCC lesions.The existence of risk factors and imaging features about the locations of lesions, the morphology, and lesion changes during follow-up are helpful in the differential diagnosis.

Objective:To investigate the application value of the maximum standardized uptake value (SUVmax) of 18F prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) PET/CT combined with the minimum apparent diffusion coefficient (ADCmin) of biparametric magnetic resonance imaging (bpMRI) in predicting pathological upgrading after radical prostatectomy (RP) for prostate cancer. Methods:The data of 89 patients with localized prostate cancer treated at Beijing Hospital from April 2019 to October 2023 were retrospectively analysed. The average age of patients was (68.4±7.0) years old, with prostate-specific antigen (PSA) level of 7.7 (5.4, 12.9) ng/ml, prostate volume of 34.6 (26.9, 47.1) ml, tumor diameter of 1.3 (1.0, 1.8) cm, prostate imaging reporting and data system(PI-RADS) score of 5 in 29 cases (32.6%), clinical stage ≥T 3 in 13 cases (14.6%). There were 31 cases (34.8%) in group 1 of targeted biopsy International Society of Urological Pathology (ISUP)grading groups, 36 cases (40.4%) in group 2, 11 cases (12.4%) in group 3, and 11 cases (12.4%) in group 4. All patients underwent 18F-PSMA PET/CT and bpMRI examinations before RP. The index lesion, identified as the highest Gleason score in pathological whole-mount sections, were outlined. SUVmax and ADCmin values were calculated from the images' region of interest. Pathological upgrading was defined as the post-RP grade group higher than the targeted-biopsy grade group. Clinical data of patients with and without pathological upgrading were compared. Spearman correlation coefficient analysis was used to assess the correlation between SUVmax and ADCmin. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was conducted to evaluate the factors influencing pathological upgrading. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was employed to assess the predictive value of each indicator for pathological upgrading. Results:Among the 89 cases, 31 cases (34.8%) experienced pathological upgrading. Compared with the patients without pathological upgrading, the SUVmax [11.3 (8.1, 16.4) vs. 6.7 (4.6, 9.2)], SUVmax/ADCmin ratio [3.1 (2.0, 4.6) vs. 1.4 (0.9, 2.1)], PSA [9.8 (6.3, 15.6) ng/ml vs. 7.1 (5.1, 10.5) ng/ml], PSA density [0.3 (0.2, 0.5) ng/ml 2 vs. 0.2 (0.1, 0.3) ng/ml 2], and post-RP ISUP grade group [≥3 group 17 cases (54.8%) vs. 13 cases(22.4%) ]were higher in patients with pathological upgrading, while ADCmin [3.8 (3.0, 5.3) ×10 -4 mm 2/s vs. 5.2 (3.6, 6.1)×10 -4 mm 2/s] and targeted biopsy ISUP grade group [≤2 group 27 cases(87.1%) vs. 40 cases(69.0%) ] were lower (all P<0.05). Spearman analysis showed a negative correlation between SUVmax and ADCmin ( R = -0.227, P = 0.032). Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that SUVmax ( OR = 1.108, 95% CI 1.020-1.238), ADCmin ( OR=0.607, 95% CI 0.390-0.874), and SUVmax/ADCmin ratio ( OR = 1.815, 95% CI 1.282-2.949) independently predicted pathological upgrading. The AUC of the SUVmax/ADCmin ratio for predicting pathological upgrading (AUC = 0.817) was higher than that of SUVmax (AUC = 0.774) and ADCmin (AUC=0.686), indicating a higher predictive efficiency. Conclusions:SUVmax, ADCmin, and SUVmax/ADCmin ratio can independently predict pathological upgrading in targeted biopsy of prostate cancer. The SUVmax/ADCmin ratio has a stronger predictive value for pathological upgrading.

Objective:To explore the diagnostic value of 18F-prostate specific membrane antigen (PSMA) PET/CT PRIMAY score combined with multiparameter MRI (mpMRI) PI-RADS score for clinically significant prostate cancer (CsPCa). Methods:The data of 63 patients with prostate cancer who underwent radical prostatectomy at Beijing Hospital from January 2019 to December 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. The median age was 70 (64, 75) years old with prostate-specific antigen (PSA) level of 8.46 (5.40, 14.80) ng/ml. All patients underwent 18F-PSMA PET/CT and mpMRI examination before surgery, and pathological large sections of prostate specimens were made after surgery. The prostate lesions were diagnosed and located by two radiologists and one pathologist respectively. Lesions with Gleason scores (GS)≥3+ 4 from the surgical pathology were diagnosed with CsPCa, and lesions with negative or GS=6 were diagnosed with non-CsPCa. The PSMA PET/CT images were evaluated using the PRIMARY study criteria (5-level PRlMARY score): no pattern (score of 1), diffuse transition zone or central zone(not focal) (score of 2), focal transition zone(score of 3), focal peripheral zone(score of 4), or an SUV max of at least 12 (score of 5). The degree of uptake of imaging agent in prostate lesions was semi-quantitatively evaluated using lesion-to-background ratios (LBR) of SUV max. MpMRI was evaluated according to the Prostate Imaging Reporting and Data System (PI-RADS) version 2.1. The patients were divided into CsPCa group and non-CsPCa group based on patients and lesions. Mann-Whitney U test and chi-square test were used to compare the differences between groups. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed to determine the independent predictive factors of CsPCa. Receiver operator characteristic (ROC) curve was used to determine the optimal diagnostic threshold for each independent predictor. Predictive models were constructed for PRIMARY score, PI-RADS score, and their combined application, and the diagnostic performance of each model for CsPCa was compared. Results:Of all 63 patients, there were 54 cases in CsPCa group (85.7%) and 9 cases in non-CsPCa group (14.3%).There was significant difference between CsPCa group and non-CsPCa group in the serum PSA level [9.64 (6.1, 15.3) ng/ml vs. 5.6 (4.6, 7.6) ng/ml]( P<0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in age [71 (64, 75) years vs. 65 (63, 69) years], and number of lesions [2 (1, 2) vs. 2 (1, 3)] (all P>0.05). Of all 109 lesions, there were 81 lesions in CsPCa group(including 49 lesions with Gleason score = 3+ 4, 16 lesions with Gleason score=4+ 3, 14 lesions with Gleason score = 8, and 2 lesions with Gleason score>8) and 28 lesions in non-CsPCa group(including 14 lesions with Gleason score = 3+ 3 and 14 with benign prostate lesions). There was significant difference between CsPCa group and non-CsPCa group in PRIMARY score [4 (3, 5) vs. 2 (1, 4)], LBR [2.69 (2.08, 4.48) vs. 1.89 (1.45, 2.48)], PI-RADS score [4 (3, 5) vs. 2 (2, 3)] (all P<0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in the lesion distribution including the number of lesions located in the transition zone [15(18.5%) vs. 8(28.6%)] and in the peripheral zone[66(81.5%) vs. 20(71.4%)]( P>0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated that PRIMARY score ( OR=2.134, 95% CI 1.429-3.187) and PI-RADS score ( OR=2.689, 95% CI 1.618-4.469) were independent predictors of CsPCa (both P<0.01). ROC curves analysis revealed that the cut-off value for diagnosing CsPCa was both 3 for PRIMARY score and PI-RADS score. The accuracy for PRIMARY score, PI-RADS score, and their combined complication in diagnosing CsPCa was 72%, 67%, and 83%, respectively. The sensitivity was 72%, 63%, and 91%, and the specificity was 75%, 79%, and 57%, respectively. The positive predictive value was 89%, 89%, and 86%, and the negative predictive value was 48%, 42%, and 70%, respectively. The area under the curve of the PRIMARY score, PI-RADS score, and their combined complication of the ROC curve for CsPCa were 0.733 (95% CI 0.624-0.842), 0.708 (95% CI 0.599-0.817), and 0.743 (95% CI 0.623-0.862), respectively. The diagnostic efficacy of their combined complication was higher than PRIMARY score or PI-RADS score alone (both P<0.01). Conclusions:Both the 18F-PSMA PET/CT PRIMAY score and the mpMRI PI-RADS score have good diagnostic value for CsPCa. The combined application of the two imaging parameters can improve the accuracy, sensitivity, and negative predictive value, which have a higher diagnostic efficiency of CsPCa.

Objective To explore the effectiveness of Guasha therapy with Fufu Tongbian in treating cancer-related insomnia(CRI)and seek a new approach to managing CRI.Methods Sixty patients with CRI who were admitted to the oncology department of our hospital from July 2021 to July 2022 were engaged in the study.The patients were randomly divided equally into two groups by using the PROCPLAN process in SAS software.The patients in the control group were given conventional symptomatic treatment and the patients in the trial group were managed with Guasha therapy with Fufu Tongbian in addition to the conventional symptomatic treatment.The two groups were compared in terms of clinical efficacy as well as scores by the Pittsburgh sleep quality index(PSQI),Hamilton depression scale(HAMD),and Hamilton anxiety scale(HAMA)were compared after 2 courses of treatment.Results All patients had completed the study.The trial group exhibited significantly higher total effective rate and presented significantly lower scores on PSQI,HAMD and HAMA compared to the control group(all P＜0.001).Conclusion Guasha therapy with Fufu Tongbian can improve sleep condition of CRI patients and alleviate their depression and anxiety,thus improving sleep quality of CRI patients.
