OBJECTIVE: To investigate the clinical characteristics, treatment and prognosis of adult AML patients with NUP98::HOXA9 fusion gene. METHODS: From May 2017 to October 2023， among 2 113 AML patients who visited the Hematology Department of our hospital, patients with NUP98 rearrangements were screened. The clinical characteristics, chromosome karyotypes, immunophenotypes, gene mutations, treatment efficacy and prognosis of the patients with NUP98::HOXA9 positive were analyzed. RESULTS: Among the 2 113 AML patients, there were 18 cases with NUP98 rearrangement, including 14 NUP98::HOXA9 positive cases, with a detection rate of 0.66% (14/2 113). The median age of the NUP98::HOXA9 positive patients was 42.5 (23-64) years old. The most common chromosome karyotype was t(7; 11)(p15; p15). The immunophenotypes of all patients expressed CD13, CD33, CD117 and CD38, and most patients expressed CD34 and cMPO, while only a few expressed HLA-DR. Second-generation sequencing (NGS) was performed to detect genetic mutations associated with leukemia in all 14 patients, and the genes exhibiting a high frequency of mutation were WT1 (10/14), TET2 (7/14), and FLT3-ITD (6/14). Additionally, mutations were also observed in KRAS/NRAS, IDH1, and KIT. Of the 13 patients who received treatment, 9 achieved complete remission (CR), and all 3 patients who received azacytidine(AZA)+ venetoclax (VEN) regimen achieved CR after the first course of treatment. Within this cohort, 6 patients were classified as relapsed/refractory (6/13). 4 patients underwent allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT), of which two achieved long-term survival. The median follow-up time was 12 (2.1-65.0) months, while the median overall survival (OS) and relapse-free survival (RFS) were recorded as 11.4 months and 9.6 months, respectively. CONCLUSION The most common type of NUP98 rearrangement in adults AML patients is NUP98::HOXA9 , which is often accompanied by somatic mutations in WT1, TET2, and FLT3-ITD. These patients are prone to relapse, have short survival time, and generally face poor prognoses. Hopefully, utilization of the AZA+VEN regimen is anticipated to enhance the rate of induced remission in the patients, and some patients may prolong their survival through allo-HSCT. However, more effective treatment methods are still needed to improve the overall prognosis of these patients.

Functional dyspepsia (FD), characterized by persistent or recurrent dyspeptic symptoms without identifiable organic, systemic or metabolic causes, is an increasingly recognized global health issue. The objective of this guideline is to equip clinicians and nursing professionals with evidence-based strategies for the management and treatment of adult patients with FD using traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). The Guideline Development Group consulted existing TCM consensus documents on FD and convened a panel of 35 clinicians to generate initial clinical queries. To address these queries, a systematic literature search was conducted across PubMed, EMBASE, the Cochrane Library, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), VIP Database, China Biology Medicine (SinoMed) Database, Wanfang Database, Traditional Medicine Research Data Expanded (TMRDE), and the Traditional Chinese Medical Literature Analysis and Retrieval System (TCMLARS). The evidence from the literature was critically appraised using the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation (GRADE) approach. The strength of the recommendations was ascertained through a consensus-building process involving TCM and allopathic medicine experts, methodologists, pharmacologists, nursing specialists, and health economists, leveraging their collective expertise and empirical knowledge. The guideline comprises a total of 43 evidence-informed recommendations that span a range of clinical aspects, including the pathogenesis according to TCM, diagnostic approaches, therapeutic interventions, efficacy assessments, and prognostic considerations.

Objective To explore the therapeutic effect of transumbilical single-port laparoscopic high uterosacral ligament suspension(HUS)and iliacpubic ligament fixation(ILF)in the treatment of pelvic organ prolapse(POP)mainly caused by middle pelvic defects.Methods Clinical data of 15 cases of POP with middle pelvic defects from June 2017 to June 2023 were analyzed retrospectively.The HUS and ILF were performed by transumbilical single-port laparoscopy.At one year after operation,gynecological examination(POP-Q system)and maximum straining pelvic MRI examination were performed for objective evaluation.The Pelvic Floor Distress Inventory Short Form(PFDI-20)and Pelvic Organ Prolapse-Urinary Incontinence Sexual Questionnaire(PISQ-12)were used for subjectiveevaluation.Results Theoperationtimewas 65-135 min(mean,102.9±16.3 min),thebleedingvolumewas 20-50 ml,and the postoperative hospital stay was 6-9 d.Follow-up time ranged from 6 to 72 months(mean,42.8±22.3 months),among which 14 cases were≥12 months.No pelvic pain,lumbosacral pain,urinary retention and thread exposure occurred.Stress urinary incontinence(SUI)occurred in 1 case at 1 year after operation.Surgical failure was noted in 1 case(degree Ⅱ),the objective success rate being 93.3%(14/15).At 1 year after operation,the distance from the anatomical landmarks of pelvic MRI to the pubococcygeal line(PCL)was significantly higher than that before operation(P<0.01),and the PFDI-20 and PISQ-12 scores were significantly better than those before operation(P<0.01).Conclusions Transumbilical single-port laparoscopic HUS and ILF is a safe and effective mutual aid procedure for the treatment of POP mainly caused by middle pelvic defects with surgical indications,which can improve pelvic floor function and quality of life.It is simple and easy to perform with low cost of consumables,which is suitable for primary hospitals.

Objective To evaluate the perioperative anxiety state and analyze the influencing factors of burned patients.Methods A total of 110 burned patients undergoing selective surgery under general anesthesia were included in the Fourth Medical Center of Chinese PLA General Hospital from February to August 2022.All patients were evaluated with self-rating anxiety scale(SAS),visual analogue scale-anxiety(VAS-a),visual analogue scale-pain(VAS-p),mini-mental state examination(MMSE),and Ramsay sedation score 1-day before and after operation.The patients'parameters were recorded including mean arterial pressure(MAP)and heart rate(HR)at admission(T0),before anesthesia induction(T1),2 min after intubation(T2),15 min after surgery(T3),during surgery(T4),at surgery end(T5),and immediately after leaving the operating room(T6).The occurrence and the influencing factors of perioperative anxiety in burn patients were analyzed using the univariate and multivariate logistic regression.Results The incidence of preoperative and postoperative anxiety in burn patients was 29.1%and 22.3%respectively.Univariate logistic analysis showed that gender(P=0.002),burn time(P=0.046),burn area(P=0.005),burn site(P=0.035),and degree of preoperative pain(P=0.001)were related with preoperative anxiety status in burn patients;while burn time(P=0.030),burn area(P=0.001),burn site(P=0.016),degree of preoperative pain(P=0.021),and preoperative anxiety status(P＜0.001)were related with postoperative anxiety state in burn patients.Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that gender and degree of preoperative pain were the independent influencing factors of preoperative anxiety status in burn patients(P=0.002,0.022),and preoperative anxiety status was the independent influencing factor of postoperative anxiety status in burn patients(P＜0.001).Compared with the preoperative non-anxious patients(n=73),preoperative anxious patients(n=30)showed no significant difference in MAP at each time point(P＞0.05),but HR was accelerated(P＜0.05),and the dosage of sufentanil,remifentanil and propofol increased significantly during the operation(P＜0.05).Conclusions The anxiety state of burn patients was significantly higher before operation than that after operation,and their consumption of anesthetic drugs during operation was higher,and there was no significant correlation with the type and number of operation.Gender,degree of preoperative pain and anxiety state were the independent influencing factors of perioperative anxiety state in burn patients.Early intervention against relevant factors will help patients recover quickly.

The endocannabinoid system(ECS)consists of a variety of long-chain unsaturated fatty acid analogs,mainly anandamide(AEA)and 2-arachidoniyl glycerol(2-AG),along with their specific binding G protein-coupled receptors,cannabinoid receptor 1(CB1R)and cannabinoid receptor 2(CB2R).It affects the life process and biological activity of almost all cells in the body by influencing cell material and energy metabolism.In the liver,the physiological expression of ECS is at a low level.The expression and secretion of ECS in the liver can be strongly stimulated by liver injury factors.ECS acts as a trigger in multiple liver diseases.It is known to be related to the process of hepatocyte steatosis and promote the formation and development of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease(NAFLD)and alcoholic liver disease(ALD).It is involved in the inflammatory processes of liver diseases and greatly affects the immune-inflammatory response in liver tissue.It is also involved in the formation of liver fibers and promotes the occurrence and development of liver fibrosis and cirrhosis.Finally,the role and mechanisms of ECS in the occurrence and development of liver diseases are elaborated in detail by listing lipid metabolism-related liver diseases(NAFLD and ALD)and other liver diseases.

Objective To investigate the impact of radiotherapy simulant Zeocin induced double-stranded RNA(dsRNA)on double-stranded RNA-dependent protein kinase(PKR)activation and explore its molecular mechanism in inhibiting the growth and migration of malignant gliomas.Methods We employed scratch assays,colony formation assays,and CCK8 assays to assess the impact of Zeocin on glioma growth and migration inhibition.Western blot and RT-qPCR were employed to measure the expression levels of methyl-modifying enzymes in glioma cells.The J2 antibody was used to detect endogenous dsRNA in malignant glioma cells treated with Zeocin.Western blot was used to assess the phosphorylation levels of PKR and eukaryotic initiating factor 2α(eIF2α).Results Zeocin significantly inhibited growth and migration of glioma cells;Zeocin treatment induced the production of endogenous dsRNA in malignant glioma cells;as the concentration of Zeocin increased,phosphorylated PKR and eIF2αprotein level also significantly increased;Zeocin downregulated the total m6A level of glioma cells in a dose-dependent manner;Zeocin selectively downregulated the protein level of methylase METTL14;Zeocin had no effect on mRNA levels of m6A modifying enzymes.Conclusion Zeocin probably triggered more dsRNA by downregulating the m6A level of RNA in malignant glioma cells,which in turn activated the PKR/eIF2α pathway,ultimately leading to tumor growth inhibition.

To investigate the effects of ORF9 gene of porcine circovirus type 2(PCV2)on PK-15,eu-karyotic expression plasmid was constructed and transfected into PK-15 cells,and the effects of overexpression of ORF9 on proliferation,apoptosis and immunization of PK-15 cells were exam-ined by flow cytometry and qRT-PCR.The results showed that ORF9 gene overexpression signifi-cantly up-regulated the expression levels of the ER stress marker gene GRP78,increased the num-ber of S phase cells,accelerated cell cycle progression,increased the apoptosis rate of PK-15 cells,up-regulated the expression levels of apoptosis-related genes caspase-3,caspase-8,caspase-9,p53 and Bax(P＜0.01),down-regulated the expression levels of apoptosis-related genes Bcl-2,up-reg-ulated the expression levels of immune-related genes 1L-8,IL-10,NF-κB and TNF-α(P＜0.01),and down-regulated the expression levels of immune-related genes IL-2,IFN-β and IL-12(P＜0.01).The above results indicate that ORF9 gene may promote the proliferation and apoptosis of PK-15 cells and play a role in the escape process of PK-15 cells.

In order to understand the genomic characteristics and genetic variation and strain type of infectious bursal disease virus(IBDV)isolate GZGY2022,which caused the death of chickens in Guizhou farm,primers were designed to amplify the whole genome of the isolate,and genetic evo-lution and strain type analysis were performed after cloning and sequencing.The results showed that the A and B segments of IBDV genome were 3 260,2 827 bp,respectively,encoding VP2-VP5 and VP1 genes.The nucleotide sequence homology between the A and B segments of this strain and the VvIBDV were 96.2％-98.7％and 87.7％-98.9％,respectively,which is the highest with NN1172 strain,83.1％-94.7％and 90.1％-91.0％with other strains.The results of genetic evolution and strain type study showed that IBDV strains can be divided into 6 branches according to antigen and virulence,and the A and B segments of the strain were clustered in the evolutionary branch of VvIBDV,and the strain was A3B3 genotype according to the new genotype classification method.The results of amino acid sequence analysis showed that there were 3 and 7 unique amino acid site variations in the A and B segments of the strain,respectively,and 13 unique characteristic amino acid sites in the coding region of the full-length genome were consistent with VvIBDV.The VP2 sequence of segment A has 19 characteristic amino acid identical with VvIBDV,among which hyper variable regions 222A,242I,253Q,256I,279D,284A,294I and 299S were characteristic ami-no acid sites of the VvIBDV,and the heptapeptide region sequence SWSASGS was consistent with the virulent strain.The VP1 sequence of segment B has 10 characteristic amino acid identical with VvIBDV,among which 61I,145T and 287A were the characteristic amino acid sites of the VvIB-DV.In addition,the nucleotide sequence GGTGCC of 777-782 did not form the restriction endo-nuclease site of Kpn Ⅰ,and combined with the triplet site 145/146/147(TEG),the segment B was consistent with the NN1172 strain,showed that its virulence was slightly weaker than that of the B2 strain of VvIBDV.The results of recombination analysis showed that there were no breaks and recombination sites in the sequence of the strain,and no recombination event occurred.In summa-ry,this study found that GZGY2022 strain belonged to the A3B3 genotype non-recombinant VvIB-DV strain,and its special amino acid sites were consistent with the molecular characteristics of VvIBDV.This study lays the foundation for further exploring the genomic characteristics and path-ogenicity of VvIBDV.

Aim To explore the improvement effect of Bazi Bushen capsule on thymic degeneration in SAMP6 mice and the possible mechanism.Methods Twenty 12 week old male SAMP6 mice were randomly divided into the model group(SAMP6)and the Bazi Busheng capsule treatment group(SAMP6+BZBS).Ten SAMR1 mice were assigned to a homologous control group(SAMR1).The SAMP6+BZBS group was oral-ly administered Bazi Bushen capsule suspension(2.8 g·kg-1)daily,while the other two groups were orally administered an equal amount of distilled water.After nine weeks of administration,the morphology of the thymus in each group was observed and the thymus in-dex was calculated;HE staining was used to observe the structural changes of thymus tissue;SA-β-gal stai-ning was used to detect thymic aging;flow cytometry was used to detect the proportion of thymic CD3+T cells in each group;Western blot was used to detect the levels of p16,Bax,Bcl-2,and cleaved caspase-3 proteins in thymus;immunofluorescence was applied to detect the proportion of cortical thymic epithelial cells in each group;ELISA was employed to detect IL-7 lev-els in thymus.Results Compared with the SAMP6 group,the thymic index of the SAMP6+BZBS group significantly increased(P＜0.05);the disordered thy-mic structure was significantly improved;the positive proportion of SA-β-gal staining significantly decreased(P＜0.01);the proportion of CD3+T cells apparently increased(P＜0.05);the level of p16 protein signifi-cantly decreased(P＜0.05);the level of Bcl-2 pro-tein significantly increased(P＜0.05),while the lev-el of cleaved caspase-3 protein markedly decreased(P＜0.05);the proportion of cortical thymic epithelial cells evidently increased;the level of IL-7 significantly increased(P＜0.01).Conclusions Bazi Bushen capsule can delay thymic degeneration,inhibit cell ap-optosis in thymus and promote thymic cell development in SAMP6 mice,which may be related to increasing the proportion of cortical thymic epithelial cells and promoting IL-7 secretion.

Home enteral nutrition(HEN)has demonstrated advantages in improving patients'quality of life and reducing medical costs.It is widely embraced in the United States,Europe,and other regions.Due to individual differences in the characteristics of HEN preparations,drug interactions,and variations in patient nutritional status,patients need pharmaceutical supervision from a nutritional support pharmacist(NSP)when using HEN.HEN in China is still in its infancy.There are no corresponding norms and guidelines for NSP participation in HEN and a need for specific operating standards.This article delves into the current situation of NSP participation in HEN management,the content of pharmaceutical care,and the value of pharmaceutical services.It aims to offer valuable reference evidence for future practice and research.
