Patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) require long-term pharmacotherapy. Due to the wide variety of clinically available drugs, medication safety has become increasingly concerning. As an indispensable component of pharmaceutical formulations, drug excipients may induce various adverse reactions, including rash, allergic responses, and gastrointestinal discomfort, and may even lead to severe organic injury. However, they are often overlooked in clinical practice. Therefore, identifying and managing excipient-related adverse reactions is crucial for ensuring medication safety. To address this issue, this article systematically reviews common excipients in IBD therapeutics, the underlying mechanisms of excipient-induced adverse reactions, and corresponding management strategies, aiming to enhance clinicians' awareness of excipient-related issues, improve their ability to recognize and manage such reactions, and ultimately ensure patient safety.

Objective: To observe the clinical efficacy and safety of Yiqi Tongluo Decoction in the intervention of early traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) syndromes after ischemic cerebrovascular disease (ICVD) intervention. Methods: From October 2020 to July 2023, a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study was conducted to include 60 patients with qi deficiency, blood stasis, and phlegm obstruction syndrome after ICVD interventional therapy. They were assigned to the Yiqi Tongluo Decoction treatment group (30 cases) and the TCM placebo routine treatment control group (30 cases) according to the randomized block design. Both groups received routine standardized treatment of Western medicine, including dual antiplatelet, lipid regulation, and control of risk factors for cerebrovascular disease. The treatment group was treated with Yiqi Tongluo Decoction based on the control group. The course of treatment was 60 days and follow-up was carried out 2 and 6 months after the operation. The improvement of qi deficiency syndrome, blood stasis syndrome, phlegm syndrome score and TCM syndrome score, modified Rankin score (mRS), Barthel index (BI) score, Fatty acid-binding protein 4 (FABP4) level, incidence of transient ischemic attack (TIA) and ischemic stroke (IS) and incidence of adverse reactions, Head and neck CT angiography (CTA) or digital subtraction angiography (DSA) examination were collected. The clinical efficacy of the patients 2 months after the operation was taken as the main outcome index to preliminarily evaluate the early and long-term efficacy of Yiqi Tongluo Decoction after the ICVD intervention. The early and long-term clinical efficacy and safety of Western medicine standardized treatment combined with TCM Yiqi Tongluo Decoction on patients with qi deficiency, blood stasis and phlegm obstruction syndrome after ICVD intervention were evaluated. The safety of Yiqi Tongluo Decoction in the treatment of patients after ICVD intervention with white blood cell (WBC), C-reactive protein (CRP), fibrinogen (FIB), plasminogen time (PT), recurrence of cerebral ischaemia and restenosis in patients at 2 and 6 months after treatment were evaluated. Results: Compared to the control group, the TCM syndrome scores for qi deficiency, blood stasis and phlegm syndrome in the treatment group reduced significantly, the clinical efficacy improved significantly, the mRS score and FABP4 were reduced, and the BI score was increased. Adverse events such as cerebral ischaemia were fewer in the treatment group than in the control group, but the difference was not statistically significant; levels of CRP, WBC and PT were reduced, and levels of FIB were reduced at 6 months post-treatment, all P<0.01, and images were intuitively compared. The treatment group was superior to the control group. Conclusion Yiqi Tongluo Decoction combined with Western medicine standard treatment can improve the early clinical efficacy of ICVD patients with qi deficiency, blood stasis and phlegm obstruction syndrome after interventional surgery, improve neurological impairment and daily living ability, reduce the state of qi deficiency syndrome, blood stasis syndrome and phlegm syndrome after interventional surgery, and improve the clinical efficacy of TCM. At the same time, it can reduce the level of FABP4, the target of atherosclerosis and restenosis after interventional surgery, reduce the level of inflammation after interventional surgery in patients with ICVD, regulate coagulation function, and reduce the incidence of long-term recurrence of cerebral ischemia after interventional surgery, with good safety.

Objective To explore the effects of esophageal vocalization training based on health empowerment model on self-efficiency,self-management ability and vocal function in patients with laryngeal cancer after total laryngectomy.Methods A total of 86 patients with laryngeal cancer who underwent total laryngectomy in The Second Affiliated Hospital of Naval Medical University from January 2023 to June 2024 were selected as the research subjects.The patients returned to the hospital to receive esophageal vocalization training 2 months after surgery.According to the random number table method,patients were assigned to control group(43 cases,receiving routine care)or observation group(43 cases,receiving routine care and nursing based on health empowerment).The training continued for 3 months.The general self efficacy scale(GSES)score,exercise of self-care agency scale(ESCA),voice handicap index(VHI)score,and training compliance were compared between the two groups before and after nursing care.Results After 3 months of vocal training,the GSES and ESCA scores of both groups increased,while VHI score decreased.The observation group had higher GSES and ESCA scores and lower VHI score than the control group(P<0.05).The overall compliance rate of the observation group was higher than that of the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion The esophageal vocalization training based on health empowerment can improve self-efficacy,self-management ability,training compliance,and vocal function in patients with laryngeal cancer after total laryngectomy.

Objective:To investigate the effects of surgical timing on incidence of perioperative complications and postoperative 30-day mortality in elderly patients with hip fracture.Methods:The data were retrospectively analyzed of the 450 elderly patients with hip fracture who had been admitted to Department of Joint Surgery, Beijing Shijitan Hospital, Capital Medical University from January 2016 to December 2021. The patients were divided into 2 groups according to the time from admission to surgery. In the early surgery group of 143 cases [41 males and 102 females with an age of 82(75, 86) years], the time from admission to surgery was ≤ 48 hours. In the delayed surgery group of 307 cases [88 males and 219 females with an age of 83(77, 87) years], the time from admission to surgery was over 48 hours. The 2 groups were compared in terms of comorbidities, perioperative complications, death events within postoperative 30 days, ICU transfer rate and total length of hospital stay.Results:There was no significant difference in the preoperative general data like age and gender between the 2 groups, indicating comparability ( P>0.05). The proportions of patients with coronary atherosclerotic heart disease [30.0%(92/307)], a stroke history [19.9%(61/307)], abnormal heart function [55.4%(170/307)] and abnormal kidney function [24.4%(75/307)] in the delayed surgery group were significantly higher than those in the early surgery group [18.2%(26/143), 10.5% (15/143), 39.2%(56/143), and 12.6%(18/143)] ( P<0.05). The proportions of perioperative pulmonary infection [22.5% (69/307)] and urinary infection [21.2%(65/307)] in the delayed operation group were significantly higher than those in the early operation group [11.9%(17/143) and 11.2%(16/143)] ( P<0.05). The total hospital stay in the delayed operation group [18(14, 22) d] was significantly longer than that in the early operation group [14(10, 17) d] ( P<0.05). There was no significant difference in ICU transfer rate or postoperative 30-day mortality between the 2 groups ( P>0.05). Conclusion:For elderly patients with hip fracture, delayed surgery may increase the incidence of pulmonary infection and urinary infection, and extend their total hospital stay, but have no effect on the postoperative 30-day mortality.

Acute liver failure (ALF) is lack of broadly approved therapeutic strategy except liver transplantation. As a glycogen metabolic intermediate, UDP-glucose (UDP-G) has been considered to accelerate liver repairment. Nevertheless, the role of UDP-G and its receptor P2Y purinoceptor 14 (P2Y₁₄R) in ALF remains unknown. The present study aims to investigate the role and underlying mechanisms of UDP-G/P2Y₁₄R axis in ALF. In this study, hepatic P2Y₁₄R is significantly increased in TAA-induced and partial hepatectomy-induced ALF, while knockout of whole-body P2Y₁₄R aggravates liver failure, manifested by inhibiting β-Catenin-mediated liver regeneration. Consistently, P2Y₁₄R deficiency exhibits impaired liver regeneration in mice suffer partial hepatectomy. Importantly, only hepatocellular specific deletion of P2Y₁₄R (P2Y₁₄R ^flox/flox Alb ^cre/+ ) mice shows a similar phenomenon, rather than stellate cell specific deletion of P2Y₁₄R (P2Y₁₄R ^flox/flox Lrat ^cre/+ ) mice. Mechanistically, P2Y₁₄R induction regulates methylation of Dact-2 through CREB/DNMT3b signals in hepatocytes, subsequently inhibiting the expression of Dact-2 which is a stabilizer of β-Catenin degradation complex, leading to the activation of β-Catenin -mediated liver regeneration. Interestingly, the administration of exogenous UDP-G can accelerate liver regeneration and liver function recovery after partial hepatectomy in hepatocellular carcinoma mice. Together, the findings propose an unrecognized role of P2Y₁₄R in ALF and provide an effective adjuvant strategy for treatment of ALF.

Medical accessibility reflects the actual ability of patients to use healthcare services, and is an important indicator for evaluating the quality of healthcare services from both the supply and demand perspectives. Inadequate medical accessibility is prevalent in dialysis patients and adversely affects clinical prognosis. In recent years, the number of peritoneal dialysis patients in China has increased remarkably, and the inequality of medical accessibility is particularly serious. However, the relationship between medical accessibility and clinical prognosis of peritoneal dialysis is still uncertain, and requires further study to provide evidence for formulating relevant health policies. This article reviews the concept and research indicators of medical accessibility, and the influence of medical accessibility on the clinical prognosis, to raise the awareness of medical accessibility inequality and help to improve care quality and survival rate in dialysis patients.

Objective To analyze the allocation efficiency of medical and health resources in 26 tertiary hospitals in Suzhou from 2017 to 2022 and perform quantitative analysis in order to provide suggestions for relevant departments to rationally coordinate the health resources allocation,regional health planning and hospital management.Methods The number of health technicians,the number of beds in health institutions and the total health expenditure were selected as input indicators,while the number of diagnostic and treatment visits and the number of discharged patients were selected as output indicators.The efficiency was measured by the SBM(Slack-Based Measure)model and the SBM window model respectively.Results Influenced by public health emergencies,the allocation efficiency of medical resources in tertiary hospitals in Suzhou city decreased first and then started to increase Under the two models,the average efficiency scores of 26 hospitals were 0.687 and 0.707,respectively.Notably,under the SBM window model,19 hospitals(73％)achieved efficiency scores near or above the average.Conclusion The two models present a conclusion that the overall efficiency of the tertiary hospitals in Suzhou is generally effective.To further enhance the allo-cation and utilization of medical resources,it is suggested that a comprehensive consideration of health needs guide the planning of medical resource distribution.Leveraging information technology to innovate medical service models,and strengthening internal de-velopment and management practices are essential strategies for promoting high-quality development in tertiary hospitals.

To analyze a case of severe avian influenza A (H5N6) virus infection resulting in severe pneumonia and acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) was admitted to Guilin Municipal Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine on July 6, 2023. The clinical data and treatment of this patient were analyzed retrospectively. The initial clinical manifestations of the patient were fever, cough, and expectoration, and the antigen test for influenza A virus was positive. Chest CT showed: double lung texture increased and thickened, and multiple patchy high-density shadows with air-containing bronchial shadows were found in the left lung, especially in the left upper lobe; a few patchy increased-density shadows were also seen in the lower lobe of the right lung, along with left-sided pleural effusion. Metagenomic next-generation metagenomic sequencing (mNGS) of bronchoalveolar lavage fluid was performed to identify the pathogen as influenza A virus H5N6. On the 4th day of admission, the patient's condition rapidly progressed to ARDS, which could not be improved by high-flow oxygen therapy, mechanical ventilation, and prone position ventilation. Subsequently, with the assistance of veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VV-ECMO), the patient's lung function gradually improved. Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation（ECMO） was withdrawn after 25 days, and the patient recovered and was discharged after a hospital stay of 41 days. Patients with severe avian influenza A (H5N6) usually have critical illness and rapid progression, often rapidly progressing to ARDS. When conventional mechanical ventilation cannot correct hypoxemia, VV-ECMO auxiliary treatment should be administered as early as possible. In addition, mNGS can help to quickly identify the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of avian influenza A (H5N6) in the early stage of the disease, particularly suitable for the diagnosis of severe and emergency infections.
