OBJECTIVE To analyze the influential factors for clinical efficacy of polymyxin B combined with other antibiotics in the treatment of carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii （CRAB） pulmonary infection. METHODS A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of patients with CRAB pulmonary infection in our hospital from May 2021 to October 2024. Information such as age， gender， admitting department， infection status， underlying medical conditions， mechanical ventilation time， combination anti-infective treatment regimens， and the Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation Ⅱ （APACHE-Ⅱ） score 24 h before medication was compiled. Based on the effectiveness of the treatment， patients were divided into treatment-effective group and treatment-ineffective group. Univariate analysis and multivariate Logistic regression analysis were employed to identify independent factors influencing clinical efficacy. RESULTS A total of 156 patients were included， and 108 patients were treated effectively， with an effective rate of 69.23%. The results of univariate analysis indicated that there were statistically significant differences between 2 groups in terms of the duration of mechanical ventilation time， APACHE-Ⅱ score 24 h before medication， the number of complication types， the proportion of abnormal coagulation function， anti-infective treatment course， and hospital stay before medication （P＜0.05）. The results of multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that APACHE-Ⅱ score≥15 points 24 h before medication [OR＝2.965， 95%CI （1.284， 6.845）， P＝0.020]， mechanical 20251606） ventilation time≥10 d [OR＝3.577， 95%CI （1.185， 10.793）， P＝0.037] and hospital stay≥14 d before medication [OR＝2.422， 95%CI （1.036， 5.654）， P＝0.041] were independent 15120420253@139.com risk factors， and anti-infective treatment course＞7 d was a protective factor [OR＝0.445， 95%CI （0.221， 0.895）， P＝0.043]. CONCLUSIONS This study shows that the effective rate of polymyxin B combined with other antibiotics in the treatment of CRAB pulmonary infection is less than 70%. The mechanical ventilation time≥10 d， APACHE-Ⅱ score≥15 points 24 h before medication， and hospital stay≥14 d before medication may lead to treatment failure， whereas anti-infective treatment course＞7 d may be associated with treatment success.

Hepatocellular carcinoma （HCC）， as the sixth most common malignant tumor worldwide， poses a serious threat to human health due to its insidious onset and high mortality rate. This article reviews the molecular mechanisms and intervention strategies of gut microbiota （GM） homeostasis in the development and progression of HCC， in order to provide new ideas for the intervention and treatment of HCC. Studies have shown that GM dysbiosis， intestinal leakage， microbial-associated molecular pattern， bacterial translocation， and metabolic products play key roles in the progression of HCC. GM imbalance may lead to immune escape， thereby promoting tumor cell proliferation and metastasis. This article elaborates on the association between GM and HCC， deeply analyzes the mechanism of action of GM in the development and progression of HCC， investigates the role of bile acid-related metabolites， short-chain fatty acid-related metabolites， and other metabolites in HCC， and explores the strategies for targeting GM in the treatment of HCC， including probiotics， prebiotics， antibiotics， Toll-like receptor 4 antagonists， and fecal microbiota transplantation. This article emphasizes that maintaining the integrity of the intestinal barrier and GM homeostasis is of great significance in the prevention and treatment of HCC， which provides a direction for developing new diagnosis and treatment strategies.

Objective To establish the drug use evaluation(DUE)standard of bivalirudin for injection,and to evaluate the use of the drug by weighted TOPSIS method,so as to provide a reference for rational use of bivalirudin.Methods Based on the package insert,clinical guidelines and consensus of experts of bivalirudin,the DUE standards were developed,and the weighted TOPSIS method was used to evaluate the rationality of the discharge medical records of Shanxi Bethune Hospital from January 1st to June 30th in 2022.Results Incorporating 108 medical records involving the use of bivalirudin for injection,88 cases(81.48％)exhibited a high degree of adherence(Ci≥0.8)between the prescribed drug regimens and the optimal recommendations,which is considered reasonable.Additionally,19 cases(17.59％)fell within the range of 0.6＜Ci＜0.8,indicating a generally reasonable adherence.Only one case(0.93％)had a Ci＜0.6,suggesting an unreasonable level of adherence.The irrational situations about various evaluation indicators in the DUE were mainly manifested in the inappropriate dosages of administration(12.04％),inappropriate disposal of adverse reactions(11.11％),using medicine with contraindications(3.70％),using medicine without indication(1.85％),inappropriate monitoring of adverse reactions(0.93％),etc.Conclusion The established DUE standards for bivalirudin are intuitive and comprehensive,and the evaluation results show that there are some unreasonable situations in the use of bivalirudin in the hospital,and it is necessary to standardize the use of bivalirudin in terms of dosages,disposal of adverse reactions,indication and contraindication.

Objective:To study and analyze the status quo and influencing factors of breast cancer patients′ concern about the upbringing of their minor children, and to provide a reference for clinical improvement of the level of breast cancer patients′ concern about parenting.Methods:A total of 247 breast cancer patients in the daytime ward of Tianjin Medical University Cancer Hospital from March to May 2023 were selected by convenience sampling. The General Information Questionnaire, Parenting Concerns Questionnaire, Parenting Sense of Competence Scale were selected for cross-sectional investigation. The multiple linear regression model was used to analyze the influencing factors of breast cancer patients′ worries about the upbringing of their minor children.Results:Finally, 240 valid questionnaires were ultimately collected. There were 12 patients with breast cancer aged 20-29 years old, 76 patients aged 30-39 years old, 117 patients aged 40-49 years old, and 35 patients aged ≥50 years old. The total score of breast cancer patients′anxiety about minor children′s rearing was (37.34 ± 2.56) points. The scores of each dimension were in order of (15.14 ± 1.02) worry about the actual impact on children, (11.15 ± 0.83) worry about the emotional impact on children, and (11.05 ± 0.71) worry about the parents of children. The total score of parenting competence (66.54 ± 11.68) points. Multiple linear regression analysis showed that parenting competence, educational level, number of underage children, per capita monthly income of families, and TNM stage (T: tumor primary lesion; N: regional lymphnode involvement; M: remote metastasis situation) affected parenting anxiety ( t values were -15.24-8.56, all P<0.05), which could explain 81.2% of the total variation in parenting anxiety level. Conclusions:Breast cancer patients′ concern about the upbringing of minor children is at a medium level, so medical staff should give relevant intervention measures to breast cancer patients with different characteristics, in order to provide reference for reducing the level of concern about the upbringing of minor children.
