ObjectiveTo explore the effect and mechanism of Jianpi Xiaoai prescription （JPXA） in ameliorating the 5-fluorouracil （5-FU） resistance of colon cancer. MethodsA HCT116/5-FU resistant cell line was established. Different concentrations （10%， 15%， 20%） of JPXA-containing serum and drug-free serum were used for intervention， and 10% fetal bovine serum （10% FBS）， fibroblast growth factor receptor （FGFR） inhibitor （AZD4547）， and recombinant fibroblast growth factor 2 （FGF2） were set as the control groups. Sensitive HCT116 cells were used in the FGF2 group， while HCT116/5-FU cells were used in other groups. Drug resistance， the level of FGF2 in the cell culture medium， the mRNA level of FGF2 in cells， and the protein levels of FGF2/FGFR and phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/protein kinase B （PI3K/Akt） were determined. The drug-resistant cells were transplanted into the axilla of nude mice to establish a tumor model. The modeled mice were allocated into model， JPXA （15 g·kg^-1）， 5-FU （0.02 g·kg^-1）， JPXA+5-FU （15 g·kg^-1+0.02 g·kg^-1）， AZD4547 （0.012 5 g·kg^-1）， and AZD4547+5-FU （0.012 5 g·kg^-1+0.02 g·kg^-1） groups. The tumor growth and the protein levels of FGF/FGFR and PI3K/Akt in each group were observed. ResultsThe survival rate of HCT116/5-FU cells decreased in all the JPXA groups with different concentrations. The cell survival rate was decreased most obviously in the 20% JPXA group. The level of FGF2 in the cell culture medium and the mRNA level of FGF2 in cells of each JXPA group decreased， and the decrease was the most significant in the 20% group （P<0.01）. HCT116/5-FU cells showed up-regulated protein levels of FGF2 and phosphorylated fibroblast growth factor receptor 1 （p-FGFR1）， but down-regulated protein level of FGFR1 （P<0.01）. JPXA down-regulated the expression of FGF2 and p-FGFR1 and up-regulated the expression of FGFR1 （P<0.05）. In addition， JPXA down-regulated the expression levels of phosphorylated protein kinase B （p-Akt） and phosphorylated mammalian target of rapamycin （p-mTOR）， while up-regulating the expression levels of Akt and Bcl-2-asociated death promoter （Bad） （P<0.05）. Animal experiments showed that the JPXA combined with 5-FU significantly inhibited the growth of drug-resistant tumors， reduced the protein levels of FGF2， p-FGFR1， phosphorylated phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase （p-PI3K）， p-Akt， and p-mTOR， and increased the expression of Bad. It indicated that JPXA can inhibit the FGF2/FGFR1 signaling in colon cancer and regulate PI3K/Akt and downstream signaling pathways. ConclusionJPXA can ameliorate the chemotherapy resistance of colon cancer through down-regulating FGF2 expression and inhibiting the activation of the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway.

ObjectiveTo investigate the mechanism of action of Jiedu Huayu granules in improving liver injury in mice with acute liver failure （ALF） by observing its effect on a mouse model of ALF after prophylactic administration， and to provide a basis for clinical medication. MethodsA total of 60 specific pathogen-free male C57BL/6J mice were divided into normal group， model group， Jiedu Huayu granules group （JDHY group）， and farnesoid X receptor （FXR） agonist （GW4064） group using a random number table， with 15 mice in each group. The model of ALF was induced by a single intraperitoneal injection of D-galactosamine combined with lipopolysaccharide. The mice in the JDHY group were given prophylactic administration of 0.3 g/mL drug solution of Jiedu Huayu granules by gavage for 3 days before modeling， those in the normal group and the model group were given 0.9% NaCl solution by gavage， and those in the GW4064 group were given intraperitoneal injection of GW4064 for 3 consecutive days before modeling. The mice were sacrificed after modeling， and serum and liver tissue samples were collected. A veterinary automatic biochemical analyzer was used to measure the serum levels of total bilirubin （TBil）， total bile acids （TBA）， gamma-glutamyl transferase （GGT）， alanine aminotransferase （ALT）， and aspartate aminotransferase （AST） in mice from each group； HE staining was used to observe liver pathological changes； RT-PCR was used to measure the mRNA expression levels of FXR， fibroblast growth factor 15 （FGF15）， fibroblast growth factor receptor 4 （FGFR4）， small heterodimer partner （SHP）， and bile salt export pump （BSEP） in mice， and Western blot was used to measure the protein expression levels of FXR， FGF15， FGFR4， SHP， and BSEP. A one-way analysis of variance was used for comparison between groups， and the Dunett method was used for further comparison between two groups. ResultsCompared with the normal group， the model group had significant increases in the serum levels of TBil， ALT， AST， TBA， and GGT （all P<0.01）， and compared with the model group， the JDHY group and the GW4064 group had significant reductions in the serum levels of TBil， ALT， AST， TBA， and GGT （all P <0.01）. HE staining showed that compared with the model group， the JDHY group and the GW4064 group had milder pathological injury， a reduction in the area of hepatocyte necrosis， and alleviation of cellular swelling and edema. Compared with the normal group， the model group had significant reductions in the mRNA and protein expression levels of FXR， FGF15， FGFR4， SHP， and BSEP in liver tissue （all P <0.01）， and compared with the model group， the JDHY group and the GW4064 group had significant increases in the mRNA and protein expression levels of FXR， FGF15， FGFR4， SHP， and BSEP in liver tissue （all P <0.05）. ConclusionJiedu Huayu granules may alleviate liver injury in mice with ALF through the FXR/SHP axis.

Objective: To compare quality control (relative purity and specific activity) and process control [plasminogen (Pg) antigen recovery and potency recovery] indexes of samples before and after adding the Q chromatography step to the full chromatography process of human Pg, thereby determining whether the addition of this step could improve Pg recovery by affinity chromatography. Methods: A Q chromatography step was added before the Pg affinity chromatography in the original Pg chromatography process. The loading solution, flow through solution and eluate of Q chromatography and Pg affinity chromatography were collected. The potency of coagulation factor Ⅱ (FⅡ), Ⅶ (FⅦ), Ⅷ (FⅧ), Ⅸ (FⅨ), and Ⅹ(FⅩ) were detected by the coagulation method, the total protein content was detected by the BCA method, and the Pg potency was detected by the chromogenic substrate method. The content of specific plasma proteins was detected by immunoturbidimetry, the potency recovery of coagulation factors was calculated, and the flow direction of coagulation factors was analyzed. The recovery of different plasma protein antigens were calculated, and the distribution of impurity proteins was analyzed. The relative purity and specific activity of Pg, antigen content, and potency recovery in the target fractions were calculated and compared with the original process indicators, so as to determine the effect of adding Q chromatography on the original process. Furthermore, the reproducibility after process modification was assessed. Results: 100% of FⅡ, FⅩ, and FⅨ, 87.81% of FⅧ, and 40.44% of FⅦ in filtered plasma were removed by Q chromatography. The residual FⅦ (53.26%) and FⅧ (13.30%) in Q flow-through fraction were completely removed by Pg affinity chromatography. In both the original process (without Q-chromatography) and the modified process (with Q-chromatography), non-target plasma proteins mainly existed in the flow-through fraction of Pg affinity chromatography. The antigen recovery of IgM, ceruloplasmin (CER), and fibronectin (FNC) in Q-chromatography flow-through fraction were reduced. In contrast, antigen recovery of other plasma proteins [IgG, IgA, Pg, albumin (AlB), alpha-1-antitrypsin (AAT), and fibrinogen (Fg)] were all >90%, which were consistent with the protein composition and proportion in the original affinity chromatography loading solution. Compared with the recovery rate of Pg antigen in the original process (74.4%), the total recovery of Pg antigen in the modified process was significantly increased (89.97%). Compared with the recovery of IgG (97.48%) and Fg (95.32%) in the Pg affinity flows-through fraction of the original process, the modified process resulted in a slight reduction in the recovery of IgG (94.60%), while the recovery of Fg was not affected (95.05%). The potency recovery rate, specific activity, and relative purity of Pg after Q chromatography were 99.3%, 0.016 U/mg, and 0.15%. These values were the same as those of Pg affinity chromatography loading solution by the original process, indicating that introduction of Q chromatography did not affect subsequent Pg affinity chromatography. Compared with the recovery of Pg antigen in three batches of the original process (66.49±1.02)%, the recovery of Pg antigen in the affinity chromatography eluent of the modified process [five batches; (77.43±4.43)%] was significantly improved. Furthermore, the potency recovery was (86.80±4.28)%, the relative purity was (81.99±1.25)%, the specific activity was (8.679±1.073)U/mg, and the process was reproducible. Conclusion: The addition of Q chromatography could improve the recovery of Pg affinity chromatography in the full chromatography process.

Objective: To systematically analyzes the impact of blood donor characteristics on red blood cell (RBC) quality and transfusion outcomes, and to provide a scientific basis for optimizing donor selection criteria and developing personalized transfusion strategies. Methods: A literature search was conducted across electronic databases including CNKI, VIP, Wanfang Data, PubMed, and Embase using combinations of keywords such as "donor characteristics", "blood storage lesion", "blood quality", and "transfusion outcomes" for summary and analysis. Results: Factors associated with the blood donor characteristics including demographic characteristics (sex, age, body mass index), lifestyle habits (smoking, alcohol consumption, exercise), and dietary or pharmacological exposures significantly influence blood storage stability and transfusion efficacy by modulating erythrocyte metabolism, oxidative stress levels, and immune properties. Conclusion: The complexity and diversity of the blood donor characteristics are associated with blood quality and transfusion outcomes. Future efforts should focus on refining donor selection criteria and establishing personalized transfusion strategies to enhance blood product quality and improve patient outcomes.

Objective To investigate the levels of serum Vasostatin-1 and Autotaxin and their clinical sig-nificance in patients with pre-eclampsia(PE).Methods A total of 120 patients with PE(PE group)admitted to the hospital from January 2021 to January 2023 and 60 healthy pregnant women who underwent routine prenatal examinations during the same period(control group)were selected as the research subjects.Accord-ing to the severity of the disease,the patients in the PE group were divided into the severe PE group(65 ca-ses)and the mild PE group(55 cases).According to the pregnancy outcomes,they were divided into the poor group(57 cases)and the good group(63 cases).The levels of serum Vasostatin 1 and Autotaxin were detec-ted by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.Multivariate unconditional Logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of adverse pregnancy outcomes of PE.The receiver operating characteristic curve was drawn to evaluate the predictive value of serum Vasostatin 1 and Autotaxin levels for adverse pregnancy out-comes of PE.Results Compared with the control group,the levels of serum Vasostatin 1 and Autotaxin in the PE group increased,and the differences were statistically significant(Z=-5.924,-6.188;both P＜0.001).Compared with the mild PE group,the levels of serum Vasostatin 1 and Autotaxin in the severe PE group in-creased,and the differences were statistically significant(Z=-4.667,-4.180;both P＜0.001).Compared with the good group,the levels of serum Vasostatin 1 and Autotaxin in the poor group increased with statisti-cal significance(Z=-5.500,-5.390;both P＜0.001).The results of Logistic regression analysis showed that severe PE(OR=3.383,95％CI:1.270-9.011),high 24 h urine protein(OR=1.888,95％CI:1.199-2.972),high Vasostatin-1(OR=1.022,95％CI:1.008-1.036)and Autotaxin(OR=4.370,95％CI:1.739-10.983)were independent risk factors for adverse pregnancy outcomes in patients with PE(P＜0.05).The area under the curve for the combined prediction of adverse pregnancy outcomes in PE patients by serum Va-sostatin 1 and Autotaxin levels was 0.864(95％CI:0.790-0.920),which was greater than predicted sepa-rately,which were 0.791(95％CI:0.708-0.860),0.786(95％CI:0.701-0.855),and the differences were statistically significant(Z=2.595,2.462;both P＜0.05).Conclusion Elevated serum Vasostatin-1 and Au-totaxin levels in PE patients are associated with the aggravation of the disease and adverse pregnancy out-comes.The combined detection of serum Vasostatin 1 and Autotaxin levels has a high predictive efficacy for the pregnancy outcomes of patients with PE.

Objective To investigate the correlations of serum hsa_circ_0002348 and hsa_circ_0001740 levels with the severity of gestational hypertension.Methods A total of 169 patients with gestational hypertension in the hospital from January 2018 to January 2023 were selected as study group,and they were divided into mild preeclampsia group(n=82),severe preeclampsia group(n=47),and eclampsia group(n=40)according to the severity of the disease.Another 169 healthy pregnant women with antenatal examination in the same period were selected as control group.Real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR(qRT-PCR)was used to detect the relative expression levels of serum hsa_circ_0002348 and hsa_circ_0001740.The correlations of serum hsa_circ_0002348 and hsa_circ_0001740 levels with the severity of the disease were analyzed.Receiver operating character-istic(ROC)curve was plotted to analyze the values of serum hsa_circ_0002348 and hsa_circ_0001740 levels in diagnosing eclampsia during pregnancy.Results The systolic and diastolic blood pressures of the control group,mild preeclampsia group,severe preeclampsia group,and eclampsia group were all significantly increased(P＜0.01).The level of serum hsa_circ_0002348 in the eclamp-sia group,severe preeclampsia group,mild preeclampsia group,and control group showed a decreasing trend in sequence,while the level of hsa_circ_0001740 showed an increasing trend in sequence,with significant between-group differences(P＜0.01).The area under the curve(AUC)for diagnosing eclampsia during pregnancy by the combination of serum hsa_circ_0002348 and hsa_circ_0001740 was significantly higher than the AUC for diagnosis by each individual index(Zhsa_circ_0002348:hsa_circ_0002348+hsa_circ_0001740=4.677,P＜0.001;Zhsa_circ_0001740:hsa_circ_0002348+hsa_circ_00017403.579,P＜0.001).Spearman analysis showed that serum hsa_circ_0002348 was positively correla-ted with the severity of the disease(rs=0.751,P＜0.05),while hsa_circ_0001740 was negatively correlated with the severity of the disease(rs=-50.638,P＜0.05).Multivariate Logistic regres-sion analysis showed that systolic blood pressure(OR=2.652),diastolic blood pressure(OR=3.247),hsa_circ_0002348(OR=2.365),and hsa_circ_0001740(OR=0.325)were influen-cing factors of severity of the disease(P＜0.05).Conclusion As the severity of gestational hyper-tension increases,the serum hsa_circ_0002348 level increases significantly,while the hsa_circ_0001740 level decreases significantly.Two indexes are correlated with the severity of gestational hy-pertension.

OBJECTIVE To explore the specific application and evaluation effect of objective structured clinical examination(OSCE)-guided scenario-based practical teaching mode in training clinical pharmacists. METHODS Fifty-six trainees who participated in the clinical pharmacist training program in the Second Xiangya Hospital of Central South University from October 2020 to September 2022 were selected as the research objects. OSCE-guided teaching was conducted, and the application effect of OSCE-guided teaching mode in clinical pharmacist training was explored and analyzed by using theoretical examination results and OSCE assessment results as evaluation indicators. RESULTS Through comparative analysis, it was found that the OSCE-guided teaching mode not only enabled students to better grasp the theoretical knowledge points required by the training outline, but also improved their clinical thinking ability, problem-solving ability, and communication and coordination skills to varying degrees. CONCLUSION For clinical pharmacist trainees, the OSCE teaching mode is conducive to the comprehensive improvement of clinical pharmacist skills and is suitable for cultivating clinical pharmacists who are capable of independently carrying out clinical pharmacy services in the new situation.

【Objective】 To investigate the correlation between heart rate variability (HRV) and the degree of nervousness before blood donation. 【Methods】 The psychological state of 253 blood donors before blood donation was assessed by the self-rating anxiety scale (SAS) and the degree of nervousness and their HRV were measured. The correlation between the SAS score, the degree of nervousness and the HRV parameters was analyzed, and the differences were compared among different types of donors by multivariate linear regression. 【Results】 A total of 247 blood donors were included in the study. Five HRV parameters in blood donors aged 18-24 were higher than in those aged 25 years and above(all P<0.05), and the anxiety level was higher in female donors(SAS score 41-46) than in males(SAS score 35-43)(P<0.001); the pre-donation SAS score was consistent with the assessment of the tension level (r=0.970, P<0.001); the pre-donation tension level and the SAS score were all significantly negatively correlated with VLF in HRV parameters(r=0.179, P=0.005), and the associations were independent of confounders such as age, body mass index and gender (P<0.05). 【Conclusion】 Compared with SAS and tension assessment, HRV is more objective, and can be used as one of the tests for assessing the tension level of blood donors. The inclusion of HRV in the routine screening of blood donors deserves further study for its application in assessing the anxiety level of blood donors before blood donation, identifying people prone to blood donation-related vasovagal reaction (DRVR), preventing and reducing the risk of DRVR, and improving the safety of blood donation.

Objective:To investigate the current state of missed nursing care during labor, explore the reasons why nursing care was missed, and examine the influencing factors of missed nursing care.Methods:Data were collected from 14 medical institutions of different levels in southwest China using a convenience sampling from February to April, 2023. A total of 491 midwives were included. A cross-sectional survey was conducted using a general information questionnaire and the Chinese version of the Perinatal Missed Care. Multiple linear regression analysis was conducted to identify the influencing factors on missed nursing care.Results:Among 491 midwives, there are 6 males and 485 females. 194 midwives aged ≤ 30, 205 midwives aged 31-40 years, and 92 midwives aged ≥41 years. 80.45%(395/491) of midwives reported missing at least one item of nursing care during labor in the past week, and the missing rate of single item ranged from 13.24% (65/491) to 53.36% (262/491). The average score across 23 items of missed nursing care during labor was 1.49 ± 0.58. The average scores of items spanning the three dimensions of basic care, necessary care and postnatal care were 1.67 ± 0.68, 1.36 ± 0.56, and 1.51 ± 0.70, respectively. The average score of 13 items representing reasons for missed nursing care was 1.82 ± 0.71. The average scores of items in three dimensions of communication, labor resources, and material resources were 1.75 ± 0.73, 1.97 ± 0.87, and 1.74 ± 0.83, respectively. The multiple linear regression analyses showed that gender, monthly average income level, and whether overtime hours were included in total working hours were independently associated with missed nursing care (all P<0.05). Conclusions:The current state of missed nursing care during labor needs to be improved. Missed basic care is common, and labor resources are the significant reasons, and is influenced by factors such as demographic and sociological factors. Human resource factors are an important reason for nursing deficiency, and targeted measures should be taken to reduce the occurrence of nursing deficiency.
