ObjectiveTo collate and compare the characteristics and differences in the methods for constructing animal models of different subtypes of gastroesophageal reflux disease （GERD） based on literature， providing a reference for researchers in this field regarding animal model construction. MethodsExperimental studies related to GERD including reflux esophagitis （RE）， nonerosive reflux disease （NERD） and Barrett's esophagus （BE） model construction from January 1， 2014 to January 27， 2024， were retrieved from databases such as CNKI， Wanfang， VIP， Web of Science， and Pubmed. Information on animal strains， genders， modeling methods including disease-syndrome combination models， modeling cycles were extracted； for studies with model evaluation， the methods of model evaluation were also extracted； then analyzing all those information. ResultsA total of 182 articles were included. SD rats were most frequently selected when inducing animal models of RE （88/148， 59.46%） and NERD （9/14， 64.29%）. For BE， C57BL/6 mice were most commonly used （11/20， 55.00%）. Male animals （RE： 111/135， 82.22%； NERD： 11/14， 78.57%； BE： 10/12， 83.33%） were the most common gender among the three subtypes. The key to constructing RE animal models lies in structural damage to the esophageal mucosal layer， gastric content reflux， or mixed reflux， among which forestomach ligation + incomplete pylorus ligation （42/158， 26.58%） was the most common modeling method； the key to constructing NERD animal models lies in micro-inflammation of the esophageal mucosa， visceral hypersensitivity， and emotional problems， and intraperitoneal injection of a mixed suspension of ovalbumin and aluminum hydroxide combined with acid perfusion in the lower esophagus （8/14， 57.14%） was the most common modeling method； the key to constructing BE animal models lies in long-term inflammatory stimulation of the esophageal mucosa and bile acid reflux， and constructing interleukin 2-interleukin 1β transgenic mice （7/25， 28.00%） was the most common modeling method. Adverse psychological stress was the most common method for inducing liver depression. ConclusionsThe construction key principles and methodologies for RE， NERD， and BE animal models exhibit significant differences. Researchers should select appropriate models based on subtype characteristics （e.g.， RE focusing on structural damage， NERD emphasizing visceral hypersensitivity）. Current studies show insufficient exploration of traditional Chinese medicine disease-syndrome combination models. Future research needs to optimize syndrome modeling approaches （e.g.， composite etiology simulation） and establish integrated Chinese-Western medicine evaluation systems to better support mechanistic investigations of traditional Chinese medicine.

OBJECTIVE: To determine risk factors for cutout failure in geriatric intertrochanteric fracture patients after cephalomedullary nail fixation. METHODS: A retrospective review of 518 elderly patients who underwent cephalomedullary nail fixation for intertrochanteric fractures between January 2008 and August 2018 was conducted, including 167 males and 351 females, age from 65 to 97 years old. All patients were followed up for at least one year after surgery and divided into a healed group and a cutout group based on whether the hip screw cutout occurred. Among all patients, 10 cases experienced hip screw cutout. The general information, surgical data, and radiological data of the two groups were compared, and risk factors influencing hip screw cutout were analyzed. Propensity score matching was then performed on the cutout group based on gender, age, body mass index(BMI), and American Society of Anesthesiologists(ASA), and 40 patients from the healed group were matched at a ratio of 1∶4. Key risk factors affecting hip screw cutout were further analyzed. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was conducted to evaluate associations between variables and cutout failure. RESULTS: There were no statistically significant differences between the healed group and the cutout group in terms of age, gender, BMI, ASA, and AO classification. However, statistically significant differences were observed between the two groups in terms of reduction quality(P=0.003) and tip-apex distance(TAD), P<0.001. Multivariate analysis identified poor reduction quality OR=23.138, 95%CI(2.163, 247.551), P=0.009 and TAD≥25 mm OR=30.538, 95%CI(2.935, 317.770), P=0.004 as independent risk factors for cutout failure. CONCLUSION The present study identified poor reduction quality and TAD≥25 mm as factors for cutout failure in geriatric intertrochanteric fractures treated with cephalomedullary nails. Further studies are needed to calculate the optimal TAD for cephalomedullary nails.

OBJECTIVES: To assess the preliminary efficacy and safety of a dose-intensified C5VD regimen (cisplatin, 5-fluorouracil, vincristine, and doxorubicin) in children with locally advanced hepatoblastoma. METHODS: This prospective study enrolled 24 children with newly diagnosed, locally advanced hepatoblastoma who received the dose-intensified C5VD regimen at Shanghai Children's Medical Center, Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine, and Shanghai Children's Hospital between January 2020 and December 2023. Clinical characteristics, treatment outcomes, and chemotherapy-related toxicities were analyzed. RESULTS: Of the 24 patients, 13 were male and 11 were female, with a median age at diagnosis of 18.7 months (range: 3.5-79.4 months). All patients achieved complete macroscopic resection of hepatic lesions without liver transplantation. Serum alpha-fetoprotein levels decreased significantly after two chemotherapy cycles. During a median follow-up of 38.4 months (range: 15.8-50.7 months), all patients maintained continuous complete remission, with 3-year event-free survival and overall survival rates of 100%. Across 144 chemotherapy cycles, the incidence rates of grade 3-4 neutropenia, thrombocytopenia, and infections were 97%, 77%, and 71%, respectively; no treatment-related deaths occurred. Notably, 5 patients (21%) developed Brock grade ≥3 hearing loss, of whom 1 required a hearing aid. CONCLUSIONS The dose-intensified C5VD regimen demonstrates significant efficacy with an overall favorable safety profile in the treatment of newly diagnosed, locally advanced pediatric hepatoblastoma. Grade 3-4 myelosuppression and infection are the predominant toxicities. However, high‑dose cisplatin-induced ototoxicity remains a concern, highlighting the need for improved otoprotective strategies.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the efficacy and safety of stanozolol combined with avatrombopag in the treatment of chemotherapy-induced thrombocytopenia (CIT) in patients with relapsed/refractory tumors. METHODS: Twenty-five patients with relapsed/refractory CIT admitted to the Hematology Department of Xiyuan Hospital, China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences between March 2023 to December 2023 were enrolled. These patients received a combined therapy of stanozolol and avatrombopag. The clinical efficacy, onset time, changes in platelet levels and blood cell counts before and after treatment, and adverse reactions of patients were evaluated. RESULTS: The combination therapy demonstrated remarkable efficacy with a total effective rate of 100%. Among the 25 patients, 19 achieved complete remission and 6 achieved partial remission. The median onset time was 42.5（range: 35-48）days. The average platelet count of the 25 patients increased from (25.73±17.75)×10⁹/L before treatment to (146.4±49.59)×10⁹/L after 3 months of treatment, with a statistically significant difference ( P < 0.05). 18 patients who previously required platelet transfusion were all weaned off platelet transfusion after 3 months of treatment, with a median time to be free from platelet transfusion was 26 (range: 18-51) days. During the treatment, both neutrophils and hemoglobin exhibited various degrees of elevation. Two patients experienced a slight increase in alanine aminotransferase(ALT) levels, which normalized after treatment with oral hepatoprotective drug. One patient had a PLT increase exceeding 350×10⁹/L, and the treatment with avatrombopag was suspended, and aspirin and other drugs were given to prevent thrombosis. No thrombose events or CIT-related bleeding events were observed in all patients. CONCLUSION The combination therapy of stanozolol and avatrombopag is significantly effective for treating relapsed/refractory CIT patients, with a high response rate and good safety, making it a suitable clinical treatment option.

Objective To investigate the relationship between the risk perception and nursing working environment with the mental resilience in the emergency department nurses.Methods The convenience sam-pling method was adopted.A total of 577 emergency department nurses in 45 hospitals of Guangdong Province from October to November 2023 were selected as the respondents.The CD-RISC scale,nursing staff risk per-ception questionnaire and nursing work environment scale were used to conduct the survey.The multiple line-ar regression was adopted to analyze the influencing factors of mental resilience in the emergency department nurses.The Pearson correlation was adopted to analyze the correlation between the risk perception and nursing working environment with the mental resilience.Results The gender,age,specialist nurse or not,post,hospi-tal type and hospital level had the effect on the mental resilience in the emergency department nurses (P<0.05).The scores of mental resilience scale in 577 nurses were (86.07±15.95) points and the scoring rate was 68.86％;the scores of nursing staff risk perception questionnaire were (79.38±16.32) points and the scoring rate was 56.70％;the scores of the nursing work environment scale were (93.51±13.25) points and the scoring rate was 75.41％.The multiple linear regression analysis showed that the post was the influencing factor of mental resilience in the emergency department nurses.The results of Pearson correlation analysis showed that the nursing work environment was positively correlated with the mental resilience (r=0.476),and negatively correlated with the risk perception (r=-0.252).Conclusion The hospital nursing managers should pay attention to the influencing factors of mental resilience in the emergency department nurses and fo-cus on three major types of risks affecting physical function,time and occupational exposure of the emergency department nurses to improve the working environment of emergency nursing.

Objective To explore the effects of different side tension pneumothorax on hemodynamics in pigs,providing data support for the optimization of on-site first-aid procedures for pneumothorax.Methods Twelve Bama pigs were randomly divided into left-sided tension pneumothorax group and right-sided tension pneumothorax group(6 in each group).During the occurrence of pneumothorax and as the pleural pressure gradually increases by 1 mmHg increments,the key indicators were collected using pulse indicator continuous cardiac output(PICCO)technology:hemodynamic indicators[global ejection fraction(GEF),cardiac output(CO),global end-diastolic volume(GEDV),intrathoracic blood volume(ITBV),stroke volume(SV),mean arterial pressure(MAP)],basic vital signs[heart rate(HR),diastolic blood pressure(DBP),systolic blood pressure(SBP)],and arterial blood gas parameters[partial pressure of oxygen(PO2),partial pressure of carbon dioxide(PCO2)].Mediastinal localization was subsequently performed using radiographs.Differences were investigated through comparison between the two groups and within each group before and after the procedure.Results By comparing the hemodynamic changes and X-ray examination results,twelve Bama pigs tension pneumothorax models were successfully constructed.Hemodynamic analysis showed that in left-sided tension pneumothorax model when the pleural pressure reached 8 mmHg,SBP,DBP,MAP,CO,GEF,SV,GEDV and ITBV were significantly lower than those during the occurrence of ipsilateral pneumothorax(P<0.05).In right-sided tension pneumothorax model,when the pleural pressure reached about 3 mmHg,SBP,DBP,MAP,SV,GEDV,and ITBV were significantly lower than those during the occurrence of ipsilateral pneumothorax(P<0.05).Blood gas analysis showed that at 8 mmHg for left-sided and 3 mmHg for right-sided tension pneumothorax,compared with the occurrence of their respective ipsilateral pneumothorax,PO2 was significantly lower(P<0.05)and PCO2 was significantly higher(P<0.05).Conclusions There are different effects on hemodynamics in different side tension pneumothorax.Compared with left tension pneumothorax,right tension pneumothorax can lead to serious consequences under a smaller pleural pressure.Different side tension pneumothorax models can be constructed according to the actual situation when performing pneumothorax related experiments.

Objective To investigate the vaccination status and vaccination willingness of novel coronavirus in HIV/AIDS population in Yunnan.Methods From October 2021 to June 2022,a questionnaire survey was conducted among 2180 HIV/AIDS patients in Kunming,Qujing,Yuxi,Zhaotong,Puer,Baoshan,Lincang,Honghe,Wenshan,Xishuangbanna,Dali,Dehong and Nujiang prefectures.The questionnaire included age,sex,education,nationality,education level,vaccination,adverse reactions within 7 days after the vaccination,safety of COVID-19 vaccine,awareness of effectiveness,vaccination willingness and so on.Results Among the subjects,2109 completed 3 injections,accounting for 96.74%,and 71 were not vaccinated,accounting for 3.26% .Within 7 days of inoculation,local adverse reactions occurred in 116 cases,accounting for 5.50%,and systemic adverse reactions occurred in 56 cases,accounting for 2.66% .Injection site pain,fatigue and muscle pain accounted for the highest proportion of adverse symptoms in different sex,age and the Han nationality,while the proportion of minority adverse reactions was very low,and there was no difference among the different sex and age(P>0.05).The main reasons for the reluctance of HIV/AIDS population to be vaccinated were(recommended by doctors)that HIV/AIDS patients could not be vaccinated(67.61%)and may have serious adverse reactions after the vaccination(19.72%).The factors affecting the vaccination were found by logistic regression analysis,whether they were worried about infecting novel coronavirus(OR = 0.121,95% CI = 0.083～0.640,P<0.001)and how much they knew about COVID-19 vaccine(OR = 28.932,95% CI = 15.469～54.115,P<0.001),safety of vaccination(OR = 13.953,95% CI = 4.819～40.404,P<0.001)and belief in the preventive effect of vaccine(OR = 14.017,95% CI = 4.752～41.348,P<0.001)were significant factors affecting vaccination.Among the 13 prefectures and cities,Dehong(20),Zhaotong(21)and Lincang(14)had the largest number of unvaccinated people.Conclusion After the mass vaccination,the rate of adverse reaction in HIV/AIDS population is low,the symptoms are mild,the correct and scientific advice and guidance from doctors and the full understanding of the harmfulness of the disease,the safety,prevention and effectiveness of the vaccine are the key to complete vaccination and put an end to vaccine hesitancy.

OBJECTIVE To establish the quality standard of Triadica cochinchinensis and to perform the acute toxicity study. METHODS Appearance properties, powder microscopic identification, and thin-layer chromatography(TLC) identification were researched. The specific chromatogram was established by HPLC. The content of cadmium(Cd), lead(Pb), arsenic(As), copper(Cu), and mercury(Hg) was determined by inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry(ICP-MS). Acute toxicity was studied by maximum dose. RESULTS The outer skin of herbs was dark brown, and the inner surface was light yellow brown and fibrous. Besides, crystal sheath fiber was common, and calcium oxalate clusters arranges in rows. In the TLC diagram of the test product, the fluorescent spots of the same color were displayed at the corresponding position of the control product(scopoletin, isofraxidin). Five common peaks were calibrated in the characteristic map and the three characteristic peaks(scopoletin, isofraxidin, dimethylfraxetin) were recognized. The content of the measured heavy metal elements was lower than the national limit standard. The linear correlation coefficient was R2 > 0.999. The precision, stability, repetitive RSD were < 10%. The average recovery rate of the added sample was 80%−120%, and the RSD was < 10%. The maximum dose of the acute toxicity test was 184.09 g·kg−1. The 14 d internal body mass, food intake, organ-body ratios, the serum glutamic pyruvic transaminase, glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase, blood urea nitrogen, and creatinine were not significantly different by comparing with the normal controls. Therefore, no significant toxicity was observed. CONCLUSION The established standard can provide a reference for evaluating the quality of Triadica cochinchinensis. The heavy metal content of ten batches of medicinal materials is within the safe range. Acute toxicity test show that there is no obvious significant adverse teactions after oral administration, and the safe dose range is large, which can provide a reference for the subsequent development and utilization.
