Under the trend of increasing aging， integrated elderly care and medical services is an important measure to optimize the supply of elderly care services and promote the good death of the elderly. Using the cooperative production theory and the classical grounded theory， a qualitative analysis was conducted on 38 cases of elderly palliative care and 25 cases of hospital-based palliative care under the integrated elderly care and medical services model from a hospital in Nanning City using Nvivo 20.0 software. This paper found that the integrated elderly care and medical services mode emphasized the deep integration of medical and elderly care services by integrating resources and improving service efficiency， to achieve the basic experience of comprehensive health care for the elderly. The promotion of these experiences has a positive significance for building a multi-agent cooperative production system， strengthening personnel training， perfecting the performance distribution mechanism， and further promoting the development of the national palliative care pilot.

Objective To establish a quality standard for the medicinal bath formula for treating exogenous fever(composed of Forsythiae Fructus,Peucedani Radix,Schizonepetae Spica,Isatidis Radix,Gypsum Fibrosum,Chrysanthemi Flos,Lophatheri Herba,etc.)based on its efficacy and indications.Methods Thin-layer chromatography(TLC)was used to establish identification method for the monarch drugs Forsythiae Fructus and Peucedani Radix.Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA)was employed to measure the interleukin 1β(IL-1β)regulatory activity of the main components in the formula.High-performance liquid chromatography(HPLC)was used to determine the content of active components in 10 batches of samples.Results Spots of Forsythiae Fructus and Peucedani Radix were successfully detected in the test samples.ELISA identified active components in the formula,including praeruptorin A,pulegone,rutin,praeruptorin B,forsythoside,and(R,S)-goitrin.The content determination results of 10 batches of samples showed that the content of praeruptorin A ranged from 0.493 to 0.694 mg·mL-1.Conclusion Based on its efficacy and indications,TLC identification and HPLC content determination methods were established for the medicinal bath formula for treating exogenous fever.The obtained standard can more accurately control the efficacy of the formula.

Objective To explore the effect of sugammadex on safety indicators such as body movement,choking,peak airway pressure during spinal surgery with motor evoked potential monitoring.Methods This study was a ret-rospective analysis of two randomized controlled trials.Patients undergoing selective thoracic and lumbar spinal sur-gery with intraoperative motor evoked potential monitoring were included.Rocuronium was continuously infused and the train-of-four stimulation count was maintained at 2.When motor evoked potential monitoring started,stop rocu-ronium infusion and 2 mg/kg of sugammadex was given.Indicators were compared between administration of sugam-madex and 5,10,20,30,60 minutes after administration like body movement,choking,peak airway pressure,allergic reaction,mean arterial pressure,heart rate,end expiratory pressure of CO2 and the train-of-four stimulation ratio(TOFr).Results A total of 120 patients were finally included in the analysis.Before administering sugammadex,TOFr was 0.2.At 5,10,20,30 and 60 minutes after administration,TOFr were 0.8,0.8,0.9,0.9,0.9 respectively.No patient experienced intraoperative body movement,choking,or allergy reaction.Compared with the time of sugamma-dex administration,heart rate was significantly reduced 5,10,20,30 and 60 minutes after administration(P＜0.05),there was no significant change in the remaining indicators.Conclusions Sugammadex can be safely used during spinal surgery with motor evoked potential monitoring.

Objective:To investigate the association between visceral adipose tissue (VAT) thickness in early pregnancy and the risk of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM).Methods:Based on the Qingdao Women and Children Health Cohort, pregnant women in the first trimester (11-13 +6 weeks of gestation) were enrolled in this cohort study between May 2019 and October 2022. The VAT was measured in first trimester and determined as the distance from the inner margin of the rectus abdominis muscle to the anterior wall of the great artery using multi-functional color ultrasound. The 75 g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) results were followed up at 24-28 weeks and the participants were divided into GDM group and non-GDM group. The pregnant women were divided into 4 groups according to the VAT quartile. Log-binomial model and linear regression model were used to analyze the association between VAT and GDM/blood glucose. Results:A total of 3 686 pregnant women were included in this study, the mean age of participants was (30.56±4.05) years and 722 were diagnosed with GDM, with an incidence of 19.6%. The log-binomial regression model results showed that compared with VAT thickness Q1 (VAT<14.70 mm), the GDM risk in Q3 (21.65≤VAT≤29.69 mm) and Q4 (VAT ≥29.70 mm) increased by 34% [ RR(95% CI): 1.34 (1.08-1.67)], and 61% [ RR(95% CI): 1.61 (1.30-2.00)], respectively. Among women with gestational age<35 years old, compared with VAT thickness Q1, the risk of GDM increased by 42% in Q3 [ RR(95% CI): 1.42 (1.22-1.65)] and 70% [ RR(95% CI): 1.70 (1.46-1.98)] in Q4, whereas no associations were found in women with gestational age ≥35 years old ( P>0.05). The association between VAT and GDM risk was only found in pregnant women with pre-pregnancy BMI <24.0 kg/m 2, and the GDM risk increased by 57% [ RR(95% CI): 1.57 (1.22-2.04)] in Q3 and 65% [ RR(95% CI): 1.65 (1.24-2.19)] in Q4 compare with Q1. The results of multiple linear regression analysis showed that VAT was positively correlated with fasting blood glucose, 1-hour blood glucose after 75 g OGTT and 2-hours blood glucose after 75 g OGTT (all Pfor trend<0.001). Conclusion:High VAT thickness in early pregnancy is an independent risk factor for GDM, and the GDM risk increases with the raising of VAT depth.

Objective:To investigate the levels of chemokine 2 (CCL2), chemokine (C-X-C motif) ligand 1 (CXCL1), chemokine (C-X3-C motif) ligand 1 (CX3CL1), and chemokine (C-X-C motif) ligand 10 (CXCL10) in the cerebrospinal fluid of patients with acute and chronic herpes zoster (HZ), and their correlation with the severity of neuropathic pain.Methods:A total of 60 patients with acute herpes zoster and postherpetic neuralgia (PHN) treated at the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from November 2022 to November 2023 were selected for a case-control study. These patients were divided into a HZ group ( n = 25) and a PHN group ( n = 35). The pressure pain threshold in the affected area was measured on the day of admission for all patients. The Visual Analogue Scale scores were evaluated in both groups. After lumbar puncture, 2 mL of cerebrospinal fluid was collected, and the levels of related chemokines in the cerebrospinal fluid were detected using the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Results:In the HZ group, the levels of chemokines CXCL1 and CXCL10 were (24.84 ± 6.97) ng/L and (107.46 ± 28.29) μg/L, respectively, while in the PHN group, they were (20.51 ± 3.16) ng/L and (132.98 ± 30.92) μg/L. The differences in the levels of chemokines CXCL1 and CXCL10 between the two groups were statistically significant ( t = 2.91, -3.26, both P < 0.05). There were no statistically significant differences in the levels of chemokines CCL2 and CX3CL1 between the two groups ( t = 1.62, -0.23, both P > 0.05). The levels of CCL2, CXCL1, CX3CL1, and CXCL10 in both groups were negatively correlated with the pressure pain threshold (HZ group: r = -0.84, -0.78, -0.93, -0.86; PHN group: r = -0.71, -0.78, -0.94, -0.76, all P < 0.01). Conclusion:Higher levels of chemokines in the cerebrospinal fluid of patients with acute and chronic HZ are associated with more pronounced neuropathic pain. The neuro-immune inflammation involving chemokines may be correlated with the severity of neuropathic pain in acute and chronic HZ.

Pear is one of the main fruits with thousands of years of cultivation history in China. There are more than 2000 varieties of pear cultivars around the world, including more than 1200 varieties or cultivars in China (Legrand et al., 2016). Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region is an important pear production region in China with 30 of varieties or cultivars. Pyrus sinkiangensis is the most popular variety, which is mainly distributed in Xinjiang (Zhou et al., 2018). Chlorogenic acid (CGA), p-coumaric acid, and arbutin are the main polyphenols in pear fruit, and their levels show great differences among different varieties (Li et al., 2014). CGA is a potential chemo-preventive agent, which possesses many important bioactivities including antioxidant, diabetes attenuating, and anti-obesity (Wang et al., 2021). Therefore, the specific CGA content of a variety is considered the embodiment of the functional nutritional value of pears.

Elucidating the active components of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)is essential for understanding the mechanisms of TCM and promote its rational use as well as TCM-derived drug development.Recent studies have shown that surface plasmon resonance(SPR)technology is promising in this field.In the present study,we propose an SPR-based integrated strategy to screen and analyze the major active components of TCM.We used Radix Paeoniae Alba(RPA)as an example to identify the compounds that can account for its anti-inflammatory mechanism via tumor necrosis factor receptor type 1(TNF-R1).First,RPA extraction was analyzed using an SPR-based screening system,and the potential active in-gredients were collected,enriched,and identified as paeoniflorin and paeonol.Next,the affinity con-stants of paeoniflorin and paeonol were determined as 4.9 and 11.8 μM,respectively.Then,SPR-based competition assays and molecular docking were performed to show that the two compounds could compete with tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)while binding to the subdomain 1 site of TNF-R1.Finally,in biological assays,the two compounds suppressed cytotoxicity and apoptosis induced by TNF-α in the L929 cell line.These findings prove that SPR technology is a useful tool for determining the active in-gredients of TCM at the molecular level and can be used in various aspects of drug development.The SPR-based integrated strategy is reliable and feasible in TCM studies and will shed light on the eluci-dation of the pharmacological mechanism of TCM and facilitate its modernization.

【Objective】 To learn the production efficient of platelet components among prefecture-level blood stations in China, to provide supporting data for those blood stations to optimize the production mode of platelet components and continuously improve production efficiency and supply capacity. 【Methods】 The data from 2017 to 2020 was obtained from 24 prefecture-level blood stations who were the members of the practice comparison network for blood institutes in China. The collection units of apheresis platelets, the number of dual-collections of apheresis platelets and plasma, the average apheresis units of one platelet apheresis procedure, the discarded rate of apheresis platelets, the amount of expired apheresis platelets and the amount of apheresis platelets issued were collected. For concentrated platelets, the prepared amount of platelet concentrates and the amount of expired platelet concentrates were collected; both the quantity of qualified and issued concentrated platelets were submitted for statistical analysis.The total output and efficiency of platelet components were calculated based on the collected data. 【Results】 The average annual growth rate of apheresis platelets collection in 24 prefecture-level blood stations was 12.23%, accounting for 99.80% of the total platelet output; the average collection unit of one platelets apheresis procedure was 1.75; from 2019 to 2020, only 5 blood stations performed dual-collection of platelet and plasma during one apheresis procedure; the discarded rate of apheresis platelets was 0.28%, of which 0.007% was due to expiration. A total of 1 621.2 therapeutic units of concentrated platelets were prepared, and 13.03% of them was discarded due to the expiration. The production efficiency of platelet components was 97.56%, of which the production efficiency of apheresis platelets was 97.61% and the production efficiency of concentrated platelets was 74.43%. 【Conclusion】 There are large regional differences in the supply capacity of platelet components in prefecture-level blood stations. Apheresis platelets are the main resource of platelet components product, and the collection capacity is increasing over the years with the characteristics of high production efficiency and low expiration scrapping rate. However, the preparation of concentrated platelets are still limited with relatively low production and high expiration discarded rate.

Therapeutic drug monitoring(TDM)has played an important role in clinical medicine for precise dosing.Currently,chromatographic technology and immunoassay detection are widely used in TDM and have met most of the needs of clinical drug therapy.However,some problems still exist in practical appli-cations,such as complicated operation and the influence of endogenous substances.Surface plasmon resonance(SPR)has been applied to detect the concentrations of small molecules,including pesticide residues in crops and antibiotics in milk,which indicates its potential for in vivo drug detection.In this study,a new SPR-based biosensor for detecting chloramphenicol(CAP)in blood samples was developed and validated using methodological verification,including precision,accuracy,matrix effect,and extraction recovery rate,and compared with the classic ultra-performance liquid chromatography-ultraviolet(UPLC-UV)method.The detection range of SPR was 0.1-50 ng/mL and the limit of detec-tion was 0.099±0.023 ng/mL,which was lower than that of UPLC-UV.The intra-day and inter-day ac-curacies of SPR were 98％-114％and 110％-122％,which met the analysis requirement.The results show that the SPR biosensor is identical to UPLC-UV in the detection of CAP in rat blood samples;moreover,the SPR biosensor has better sensitivity.Therefore,the present study shows that SPR technology can be used for the detection of small molecules in the blood samples and has the potential to become a method for therapeutic drug monitoring.
