Objective:To describe and analyze suicide risk of patients with schizophrenia,major depressive disorder,and bipolar disorder.Methods:A total of 2 016 patients with schizophrenia,903 patients with major de-pressive disorder,and 381 patients with bipolar disorder from inpatients,clinics,or communities who met the diag-nostic criteria of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders,Fifth Edition were recruited.All patients were interviewed by psychiatrists using the Mini International Neuropsychiatric Interview to diagnose mental disor-ders and assess suicide risk,as well as Clinical-Rated Dimensions of Psychosis Symptom Severity(CRDPSS)to as-sess symptoms.Differences and risk factors of suicide risk among three types of mental disorders were explored u-sing multivariate logistic regression analysis.Results:In the past one month,37 patients with schizophrenia(1.8％),516 patients with major depressive disorder(57.1％),and 102 patients with bipolar disorder(26.8％)had suicide risk.Compared with patients with schizophrenia,suicide risk in patients with major depressive disorder(OR=36.50)and bipolar disorder(OR=20.10)increased.Female(OR=1.87),smoking(OR=1.76),family history of suicide(OR=5.09),higher score of CRDPSS hallucination(OR=1.80),and higher score of CRDPSS depression(OR=1.54)were risk factors of suicide risk of patients.Conclusions:Suicide risk of patients with ma-jor depressive disorder and bipolar disorder is higher than that of patients with schizophrenia.In clinical practice,it is important to regularly assess suicide risk of patients.Patients who experience symptoms of hallucination and de-pression should be paid more attention to.

Objective:To compare the therapeutic effects of 0.05% cyclosporine and 0.1% fluorometholone eye drops in patients with moderate and severe dry eye.Methods:A randomized controlled study was conducted.Fifty-two patients (52 eyes) with moderate to severe dry eye in Tianjin Medical University Eye Hospital from August 2021 to December 2022 were enrolled and randomly divided into 0.05% cyclosporine group and 0.1% fluorometholone group by random number table method, with 26 cases (26 eyes) in each group.Patients received 0.05% cyclosporine eye drops (2 times/day) and 0.1% fluorometholone eye drops (2 times/day) combined with calf blood deproteinized extract eye drops (4 times/day) according to the grouping.Before and 1, 3 and 6 months after treatment, clinical symptoms and signs were observed and Ocular Surface Disease Index (OSDI) score, corneal fluorescein staining (CFS) score, Schirmer Ⅰ test (SⅠT), non-invasive first tear film break-up time (NIBUTf), and conjunctival goblet cell (CGC) density were recorded.Before treatment and after 6 months of treatment, changes in corneal nerves and dendritic cells (DC) were observed by in vivo confocal microscopy (IVCM).This study adhered to the Declaration of Helsinki and was approved by the Medical Ethics Committee of Eye Hospital of Tianjin Medical University (No.2021KY-17).Written informed consent was obtained from each subject. Results:Compared with the 0.1% fluorometholone group, CFS score decreased after 1 month of treatment, but SⅠT, NIBUTf and CFS score increased after 3 months of treatment, and OSDI score, SⅠT and CFS score decreased after 6 months of treatment in the 0.05% cyclosporine group, showing statistically significant differences (all at P<0.05).Compared with baseline, in the 0.05% cyclosporine group, NIBUTf increased and CFS score decreased after 1 month of treatment, OSDI score and CFS score decreased, SⅠT and NIBUTf increased after 3 and 6 months of treatment, showing statistically significant differences (all at P<0.05).In the 0.1% fluorometholone group, CFS score decreased after 3 months of treatment, OSDI score and CFS score decreased, SⅠT increased after 6 months of treatment compared to baseline, showing statistically significant differences (all at P<0.05).OSDI score and CFS score decreased, SⅠT increased after 6 months of treatment compared to 3 months of treatment in the 0.05% cyclosporine group, and the differences were statistically significant (all at P<0.05).Baseline and CGC densities after 1, 3 and 6 months of treatment were (147.66±17.29), (195.44±15.46), (210.36±19.15) and (282.09±22.63)cells/mm 2 in the 0.05% cyclosporine group and (138.09±17.29), (95.67±15.46), (117.77±19.15) and (109.13±22.63)cells/mm 2 in the 0.1% fluorometholone group, respectively, with a statistically significant overall difference ( Fgroup=11.724, P<0.001; Ftime=4.837, P=0.005).Compared with the 0.1% fluorometholone group, CGC density in the 0.05% cyclosporine group increased after 1, 3 and 6 months of treatment, with statistically significant differences (all at P<0.05).Compared with baseline, the CGC density increased in the 0.05% cyclosporine group after 1, 3 and 6 months of treatment, and the differences were statistically significant (all at P<0.05).Compared with the 0.1% fluorometholone group, the corneal nerve fiber density in the 0.05% cyclosporine group increased after 6 months of treatment, and corneal DC density, area and dendrite number decreased, showing statistically significant differences (all at P<0.05). Conclusions:Cyclosporine 0.05% eye drops combined with calf blood deproteinized extract eye drops can improve symptoms and signs in patients with moderate to severe dry eye, and the long-term effect is better than that of 0.1% fluorometholone plus calf blood deproteinized extract eye drops.

Objective:To investigate the accuracy of next-generation sequencing technology(NGS)in detecting the polymorphisms of HLA-DRB1,DQB1,DQA1,DRB3,DRB4,DRB5,DPA1 and DPB1 alleles in randomly-selected unrelated healthy individuals from Shenzhen Han population,investigate the potential reason for HLA-DRB1 allele dropout in routine NGS,and establish an internal quality control system.Methods:NGS-based HLA class Ⅱ genotyping was performed on 1 012 samples using the MiSeqDxTM platform.The suspected missed alleles indicated by the quality control software and HLA-DRB1 homozygotes were confirmed by PCR-SSOP or PCR-SBT methods.Results:A total of 139 alleles were detected,including HLA-DRB1(45),DRB3(7),DRB4(5),DRB5(7),DQA1(17),DQB1(21),DPA1(10)and DPB1(27).HLA-DRB 1*09:01(17.09％),15:01(10.72％);DRB3*02:02(25.99％),03:01(10.18％);DRB4*01:03(36.46％);DRB5*01:01(15.42％);DQA1*01:02(20.01％),03:02(17.19％);DQB1*03:01(19.47％),03:03(17.98％),05:02(11.66％),06:01(10.67％);DPA1*02:02(54.45％),01:03(31.18％)and DPB1*05:01(39.13％),02:01(16.90％)alleles were the most common alleles in Shenzhen Han population(frequencies＞10％).There was no statistical difference between the gene frequencies of HLA-DRB1 and DQB1 loci in our study.The HLA Common and Well-Documented Alleles in China(CWD2.4)(x2=12.68,P＞0.05).94 cases of HLA-DRB1 homozygous samples detected by NGS were retested by PCR-SSOP or SBT method,and one case of allele dropout at HLA-DRB1 locus was found.SBT method confirmed that the allele of DRB1*04:03 was missed.The laboratory internal quality control system was established.Two cases of new alleles were detected and named by WHO Nomenclature Committee for Factors of the HLA System.Conclusion:The HLA genotyping results based on NGS showed a significantly lower ambiguity rate.The HLA class Ⅱ alleles exhibit genetic polymorphism in the Han population of unrelated healthy individuals in Shenzhen.The independent method based on NGS in clinical histocompatibility testing has limitations and requires internal quality control strategies to avoid allele-dropout events.

Aim To study the active ingredients and mechanism of action of Xinkeshu tablets against myo-cardial ischemia by network pharmacology and ze-brafish model.Methods The anti-myocardial ische-mia activity of Xinkeshu tablets was evaluated by iso-prenaline hydrochloride(ISO)-induced zebrafish myo-cardial ischemia model and H2O2-induced H9c2 dam-age model.The active ingredients of Xinkeshu tablets were retrieved using databases such as TCMSP.The potential targets were predicted by PharmaMapper data-base.Myocardial ischemic disease targets were searched by OMIM database.The potential therapeutic targets of Xinkeshu tablets against myocardial ischemia were analyzed.GO and KEGG enrichment analysis were conducted on core targets.The active ingredients were verified by zebrafish and cell model.qRT-PCR was used to detect the expression of key targets.Re-sults Xinkeshu tablets could significantly alleviate ISO-induced pericardial edema and bradycardia.It al-so could increase sinus venous-bulb aortic(SV-BA)distance and improve the cell viability.The 30 poten-tial active ingredients of Xinkeshu tables mainly acted on 30 core targets,including ALB,AKT1 and MAPK1,to regulate 627 GO items,including protein phosphorylation,negative regulation of apoptosis and positive regulation of PI3K signal transduction.KEGG results showed that 117 signaling pathways,including PI3K/Akt,FOXO and Ras,exerted anti-myocardial ischemia effect.Salvianolic acid A,lithospermic acid,rosmarinic acid,salvianolic acid D,salvianolic acid B,ginsenoside Rg2,hyperoside,3'-methoxypuerarin,3'-hydroxypuerarin and ginsenoside Rg1 could alleviate ISO-induced zebrafish myocardial ischemia and im-prove the cell viability.Xinkeshu tablets could upregu-late the expression of genes such as ras and akt1,and downregulate the expression of genes such as mapk1 and mapk8.Conclusion The active ingredients,in-cluding salvianolic acid A in Xinkeshu tablets,exert anti-myocardial ischemia effects by targeting targets,such as AKT1,MAPK1,and regulating signaling path-ways,such as PI3K/Akt,MAPK and Ras.

Tetralogy of Fallot is the most common cause of cyanotic congenital heart disease,and it is related with the high incidence of pulmonary regurgitation in repaired tetralogy of Fallot that usually requires pulmonary valve replacement.Transcatheter pulmonary valve replacement can replace traditional surgery in treating pulmonary regurgitation,which can make up for the shortcoming of large injury.Echocardiography is important in assessing ventricular function,however,conventional echocardiographic parameters have several limitations.This study reviewed the application of two-dimensional speckle tracking imaging in evaluating the right and left ventricular function after transcatheter pulmonary valve replacement in pulmonary valve regurgitation after repaired tetralogy of Fallot.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.

Chronic prostatitis is a process of kidney deficiency and blood stasis mixed with various pathological factors involving the essence chamber,which is manifested as kidney deficiency and blood stasis.Based on the concept of the"brain-heart-kidney-es-sence chamber"axis of medication,Xiongji Formula is applied to the treatment of chronic prostatitis,due to its"simultaneous holistic and local action"and effects of tonifying the kidney yang and assisting the systemic yang,acting on the brain,heart and kidney as a whole,and meanwhile activating blood circulation,eliminating blood stasis and restoring the function of the essence chamber.This pa-per discusses the etiology and pathogenesis of chronic prostatitis with kidney deficiency and blood stasis in Chinese medicine,expounds the significance of"brain-heart-kidney-essence chamber"axis of medication,and explores the specific value and clinical application of Xiongji Formula.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of Guihuang Formula(GHF)in the treatment of type Ⅲ prostatitis with the syndrome of damp-heat stasis in the essence chamber.Methods:This study included 120 cases of type Ⅲ prostatitis with damp-heat stasis syndrome in the essence chamber,which were randomly and equally divided into a GHF and a control group,the for-mer treated with GHF and the latter with Tamsulosin Hydrochloride Sustained-Release Capsules,both for 6 successive weeks.We fol-lowed up the patients for 4 weeks,recorded the NIH-CPSI,TCM symptom scores,and results of prostatic fluid routine,blood and u-rine routine,liver and kidney function and electrocardiogram examinations,and compared them between the two groups of patients be-fore and after treatment.Results:Compared with the baseline,the total NIH-CPSI scores were significantly decreased in both the GHF and control groups after 6 weeks of treatment,even more significantly in the former group(28.34±9.23 vs 6.78±3.53,P＜0.05)than in the latter(27.81±8.28 vs 14.48±4.27,P＜0.05),so were the scores on pain,voiding symptoms,quality of life(QOL)impact,TCM symptoms and WBC count(all P＜0.05),while the number of lecithin bodies remarkably increased(P＜0.05).There were statically significant differences in the above parameters at 4,6 and 10 weeks of medication(P＜0.05),but not at 2 weeks(P＞0.05).No obvious abnormalities or adverse reactions were observed in either of the two groups during the treatment.Conclusion:Guihuang Formula is safe and effective in the treatment of type Ⅲ prostatitis with the syndrome of damp-heat stasis in the essence chamber.

Prostate diseases,male infertility,sexual dysfunction and other male diseases are highly prevalent in men and seri-ously affect their quality of life,causing significant impacts on their physical and mental health.According to the theory of"brain-heart-kidney-essence chamber(BHKE)"axis,the brain,heart,kidney and essence chamber are linked by meridians,based on es-sence and blood,and guided by spirit,which are interconnected to form an organic whole as the main axis for the pathogenesis,diag-nosis and treatment of male diseases.At present,considerable progress has been made in the application and development of the"BH-KE"axis theory in the treatment of male diseases in Chinese medicine,but the interpretation of its scientific connotation is not suffi-cient enough and its biological basis lacks further clarification.This review explores into the biological basis of the maladjusted BHKE axis in different male diseases,such as chronic prostatitis,BPH,male infertility,ED,premature ejaculation,from the perspectives of the nerves,endocrine,immune system,and micro-environment,aiming to provide some evidence for further in-depth studies of the scientific connotation and application value of the"BHKE"axis theory in the treatment of male diseases.
