OBJECTIVE To develope a predictive model for medication deviation risks during the hospital-to-home transition period in coronary heart disease (CHD) patients with initial treatment, aiming to assist medical staff in rapidly identifying high-risk groups for medication deviation. METHODS A total of 462 CHD patients with initial treatment from the Affiliated Hospital of North China University of Science and Technology (hereinafter referred to as “our hospital”) between January and July 2024 were enrolled. The patients were randomly divided into a modeling group and an internal validation group. The modeling group was further categorized into a medication deviation group and a non-medication deviation group based on whether medication deviations occurred. Similarly, 57 CHD patients with initial treatment from the cardiology department of our hospital between June and September 2025 were collected as an external validation group. Univariate analysis was used to screen predictive factors, followed by multivariate Logistic regression to construct the predictive model. Internal validation methods were employed to evaluate model performance, while external validation methods were used to test the model’s generalizability. RESULTS The 462 patients were divided into a modeling group (319 cases) and an internal validation group (143 cases). In the modeling group, the medication deviation group (192 cases, 60.19%) and the non-medication deviation group (127 cases, 39.81%) were identified. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis revealed that age, medication type, medication adherence, and self-efficacy in rational medication use were predictive factors for medication deviations in CHD patients with initial treatment ( P <0.05). The predictive model equation was logit P =ln[ P /(1- P ) ] =1.321+1.732×age+4.091×medication type -4.360×medication adherence -3.081×self-efficacy in rational medication use. The model demonstrated good discrimination, with a Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness-of-fit test P -value of 0.439, an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) of 0.870, sensitivity of 0.970, and specificity of 0.607. A risk nomogram with a total score of 350 points and a cutoff value of 110 points was plotted. The internal validation group showed an AUC o f 0.787 and a prediction accuracy of 77.6%, while the external validation group exhibited an AUC of 0.802 and a prediction accuracy of 73.7%. CONCLUSIONS This study successfully developed a predictive model for medication deviation risks during the hospital-to-home transition period in CHD patients with initial treatment. The model demonstrates excellent discrimination and predictive accuracy, effectively identifying high-risk populations for medication deviations. Age (>70 years), number of drug types≥5, poor medication adherence, and poor self-efficacy in rational medication use are independent risk factors for medication deviations.

Trophoblast cells serve as the foundation for placental development. We analyzed published multiomics sequencing data and found that trophoblast cells highly expressed RRS1 compared to primitive endoderm and epiblast. We used HTR-8/SVneo cells for further investigation, and Western blot and immunofluorescence staining confirmed that HTR-8/SVneo cells highly expressed RRS1. RRS1 was successfully knocked down in HTR-8/SVneo cells using siRNA. Using IncuCyte S3 live-cell analysis system based on continuous live-cell imaging and real-time data, we observed that proliferation, migration, and invasion abilities were all significantly decreased in RRS1-knockdown cells. RNA-seq revealed that knockdown of RRS1 affected the gene transcription, and upregulated pathways in extracellular matrix organization, DNA damage response, and intrinsic apoptotic signaling, downregulated pathways in embryo implantation, trophoblast cell migration, and wound healing. Differentially expressed genes were enriched in diseases related to placental development. Consistent with these findings, human chorionic villus samples collected from spontaneous abortion cases exhibited significantly reduced RRS1 expression compared to normal controls. Our results highlight the functional importance of RRS1 in human trophoblasts and suggest that its deficiency contributes to early pregnancy loss.

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the influence of pharmaceutical quality control on the efficiency and outcomes of standardized medication therapy management (MTM) services for patients with coronary heart disease by using Economic, Clinical and Humanistic Outcomes (ECHO) model. METHODS This study collected case data of coronary heart disease patients who received MTM services during January-March 2023 (pre-quality control implementation group, n=96) and June-August 2023 (post-quality control implementation group, n=164). Using propensity score matching analysis, 80 patients were selected from each group. The study subsequently compared the economic, clinical, and humanistic outcome indicators of pharmaceutical services between the two matched groups. RESULTS There were no statistically significant differences in baseline data between the two groups after matching (P>0.05). Compared with pre-quality control implementation group, the daily treatment cost (16.26 yuan vs. 24.40 yuan, P<0.001), cost-effectiveness ratio [23.12 yuan/quality-adjusted life year (QALY) vs. 32.32 yuan/QALY, P<0.001], and the incidence of general adverse drug reactions (2.50% vs. 10.00%, P=0.049) of post-quality control implementation group were decreased significantly; the utility value of the EuroQol Five-Dimensional Questionnaire (0.74± 0.06 vs. 0.71±0.07, P=0.003), the reduction in the number of medication related problems (1.0 vs. 0.5, P<0.001), the medication adherence score ([ 6.32±0.48) points vs. (6.10±0.37) points, P=0.001], and the satisfaction score ([ 92.56±1.52) points vs. (91.95±1.56) points, P=0.013] all showed significant improvements. Neither group experienced serious adverse drug reactions. There was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of new adverse reactions between the two groups (1.25% vs. 3.75%, P=0.310). CONCLUSIONS Pharmaceutical quality control can improve the quality of pharmaceutical care, and the ECHO model can quantitatively evaluate the effect of MTM services, making pharmaceutical care better priced and more adaptable to social needs, thus being worthy of promotion.

【Objective】 To investigate the frequency of platelet antibodies in voluntary blood donors and patients in Zhongshan, Guangdong Province, and to study the specificity and cross-matching of platelet antibodies. 【Methods】 Platelet antibodies of blood donors and patients were screened by solid-phase immunoadsorption (SPIA), rechecked by flow cytometry (FCM), and antibody specificity was identified by PakPlus enzyme immunoassay, and platelet cross-matching was simulated by SPIA. 【Results】 A total of 1 049 blood donor samples and 598 patient samples were tested, with 6 (0.57%) and 49 (8.19%) samples positive for SPIA,respectively(P<0.05); In SPIA positive samples, the positive concordance rate of FCM in blood donors and patients was 100% vs 95%, and that of enzyme immunoassay was 100% vs 88%. Among the initial screening positive samples of blood donors, 5 were anti-HLA Ⅰ antibodies, accounting for 83%, and 1 was anti CD36 antibody, accounting for 17%, with an incidence rate of 0.10%. Among the 14 samples of enzyme immunoassay positive patients, 2 were anti-GP Ⅱb/Ⅲa, 1 was anti-GP Ⅱa/Ⅱa, 8 were anti HLA Ⅰ, and 3 were mixed antibodies (HLA Ⅰ, GP Ⅱb/Ⅲa, GP Ⅰa/Ⅱa). According to the types of antibodies, HLA Ⅰ antibodies were the most common, accounting for 65% (11/17), followed by HPA related anti GP, accounting for 35% (6/17). The majority of patients had a platelet antibody positive typing rate below 30%, accounting for 71.4% (10/14). 【Conclusions】 The positive rate of platelet antibody of patients in Zhongshan area is significantly higher than that of voluntary blood donors, and most of them are anti-HLA Ⅰ and anti-GP, and the incidence of anti-CD36 is extremely low. Therefore, it is necessary to establish a known platelet antigen donor bank, and at the same time, carry out platelet antibody testing and matching of patients, which is helpful to solve the issue of platelet transfusion refractoriness.

Objective:To observe and analyze the surface electromyography activity of quadriceps femoris of knee osteoar-thritis(KOA)patients. Method:The surface electromyography of vastus lateralis,rectus femoris,and vastus medialis were recorded and analyzed in 30 KOA patients and 30 normal people during isokinetic knee flexion or extension at veloci-ties of 60 °/s,90 °/s or 180 °/s.We also record clinical indicators(muscle thickness and degree of knee pain)of the KOA group and evaluate the correlation between electromyographic data and clinical indicators. Result:Compared with the healthy control group,the KOA group had significantly lower knee extensor mo-ment during isokinetic knee flexion or extension at velocities of 60°/s(P<0.001),90°/s(P<0.01),or 180°/s(P<0.01).Statistics showed that there were significant differences in the median frequency difference rate of vastus lateralis(P<0.05)and root mean square value of rectus femoris(P<0.01)between the healthy control group and the KOA group under 60°/s angular velocities.There was a significant difference in the root mean square value of rectus femoris(P<0.05)between the two groups at velocities of 90°/s.Statistics revealed that the median frequency difference rate(P<0.05)and root mean square value(P<0.05)of rectus femoris had changed significantly at the velocities of 180°/s.The results of both multiple regression and random forest algo-rithm showed that knee extensor moment was the strongest predictor between electromyographic characteristics and clinical indicators. Conclusion:The strength of quadriceps femoris in KOA patients was decreased.Thus,the patient may need more muscles to complete the same action,which was easy to cause muscle fatigue.The knee extensor moment was closely related to the quadriceps femoris thickness and the degree of knee pain.It offers important advantag-es for the diagnosis and assessing the severity,which may provide the way for the future study of KOA.

Objective:To investigate the differences in terms of blood cerebrospinal fluid barrier immune surveillance injury by lead acetate and nano-lead sulfide exposure in order to provide basis for the study of their mechanism of nerve injury caused by exposure to lead and nano lead.Methods:In June 2015, forty-five SPF SD male rats were randomly divided into control group, lead acetate group (20 mg/kg) and nano-lead sulfide group (20 mg/kg), with 15 rats in each group. The rats were intragastric five times a week, for nine weeks. The numbers of CD4 + T lymphocytes in blood and cerebrospinal fluid were detected by flow cytometry. The levels of interleukin-4 (IL-4) and interferon-γ (IFN-γ) in serum and cerebrospinal fluid were detected by ELISA. The expressions and distribution of intercellular cell adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) and CD4 + T lymphocytes in choroid plexus were detected by laser confocal fluorescence immunoassay. The mRNA expression levels of IL-4, IFN-γ and ICAM-1 in the choroid plexus were detected by real-time PCR. Results:Compared with the control group, the proportion of CD4 + T lymphocytes in blood of rats in lead acetate group was increased, the proportions of CD4 + T lymphocytes in cerebrospinal fluid of rats in lead acetate group and nano-lead sulfide group were increased, the contents of IL-4 and IFN-γ in serum of rats in lead acetate group and nano-lead sulfide group were increased, the content of IL-4 in cerebrospinal fluid of rats in lead acetate group and the contents of IL-4 and IFN-γ in cerebrospinal fluid of rats in nano-lead sulfide group were increased, the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). The fluorescence intensity of ICAM-1 and CD4 + T lymphocytes in choriochoroid plexus of rats in lead acetate group and nano-lead sulfide group were stronger than those in control group, and the fluorescence intensity of CD4 + T lymphocytes of rats in nano-lead sulfide group was weaker than that in lead acetate group. Compared with the control group, the mRNA expression levels of ICAM-1, IL-4 and IFN-γ in choriochoroids plexus of rats in lead acetate group and nano-lead sulfide group were increased, and the mRNA expression levels of ICAM-1 and IL-4 in nano-lead sulfide group were higher than those in lead acetate group, while the mRNA expression level of IFN-γ in nano-lead sulfide group was lower than that in lead acetate group ( P<0.05) . Conclusion:Exposure to lead and nano-lead sulfide can cause the increase of CD4 + T lymphocytes, IL-4, IFN-γ and ICAM-1, which may be related to the damage to the immune surveillance of the blood cerebrospinal fluid barrier. And there is a difference in the injury caused by lead and nano-lead sulfide exposure.
