Enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) is a series of perioperative optimization measures based on evidence-based medicine aimed at achieving rapid recovery. Existing studies have shown that ERAS can effectively reduce surgical stress, decrease the incidence of complications, shorten hospital stays, save medical costs, and improve patient satisfaction. Although lung transplantation techniques have become increasingly mature, lung transplant recipients still have a high incidence of complications during perioperative period. To further improve the perioperative survival rate of lung transplant recipients, introducing ERAS concept into the perioperative management strategy of lung transplantation is of great significance for reducing incidence of perioperative complications, promoting rapid recovery and long-term survival of lung transplant recipients. This article discusses the advances in application of ERAS concept in the perioperative management of lung transplantation, aiming to provide references for optimizing the perioperative management of lung transplant recipients and reducing perioperative complications.

Aim To achieve efficient loading of doxo-rubicin(doxorubicin,dox)by synthesizing fluorinated nanomaterials,and to study the mechanism of nano-medicine against multidrug resistance in tumors.Methods The physicochemical properties of nano dox(nano-doxorubicin)at different degrees of fluorination(PF4 and PF8)were evaluated through various physi-cochemical parameters,and nano dox formulations were screened out with superior fluorination.The mechanism of nano dox in overcoming multidrug resist-ance in tumors was investigated and in vitro anti-tumor activity was studied through research on cytotoxicity,cellular uptake,apoptosis,and resistance against the P-glycoprotein(P-glycoprotein,P-gp)efflux pump.Results By examining various physicochemical indi-cators,PF8 exhibited superior nano performance in loading doxorubicin compared to PF4.Cytotoxicity ex-periments demonstrated that the IC50 value of nano dox was only 1/40 of free dox,indicating excellent in vitro activity of nano dox in overcoming resistance and inhib-iting cell proliferation.Cell uptake and apoptosis stud-ies indicated that nano dox could effectively enhance the uptake of doxorubicin in MCF-7/ADR cells and successfully enter the cell nucleus,ultimately leading to apoptosis-induced anticancer activity.Studies on drug efflux mediated by P-glycoprotein indicated that nano dox could rapidly enter MCF-7/ADR cells through an efficient cellular uptake pathway,effective-ly bypassing the P-glycoprotein efflux pump.This dual action resulted in increased drug uptake within resistant cells and a reduction in efflux,demonstrating the po-tential of nano doxorubicin to overcome drug resist-ance.Conclusions The design of fluorinated nano dox effectively circumvents the efflux of drug molecules by P-glycoprotein,enhancing drug uptake within re-sistant tumor cells and reducing efflux.This results in an effective strategy in combating multidrug resistance in tumors.

Objective To explore the improving effect and mechanism of saikosaponin A on insomnia rats based on cAMP/PKA/CREB pathway.Methods Seventy-five SD rats were randomly divided into blank group,model group,low-dose saikosaponin A group(0.625 mg·kg-1),high-dose saikosaponin A group(2.500 mg·kg-1)and Estazolam group(0.1 mg·kg-1),with 15 rats in each group.Insomnia rat model was established by intraperitoneal injection of Phenylalanine(PCPA,0.1 mg·kg-1).The general condition and circadian rhythm of rats were observed;the sleep latency and sleep duration of rats were measured by pentobarbital sodium righting experiment.The sleep phase of rats was observed,and the duration of slow wave sleep phase 1(SWS1),slow wave sleep phase 2(SWS2),rapid eye movement sleep phase(REMS)and total sleep time(TST)were recorded.The mRNA expression levels of hypothalamic circadian genes Clock,Bmal1 and clock-controlled genes Rev-erbα and Rorα were determined by qRT-PCR.The expression level of NeuN in hippocampus was determined by immunofluorescence.The level of cAMP in brain tissue was determined by ELISA.The expression levels of Clock,Bmal1,Rev-erbα,Rorα and cAMP/PKA/CREB pathway-related proteins in brain tissue were determined by Western Blot.Results Compared with the blank group,the rats in the model group had disordered circadian rhythms,extreme excitement,irritability,and reduced sleep;the sleep latency was significantly prolonged(P＜0.05),and the sleep duration and SWS1,SWS2,REMS and TST were significantly shortened(P＜0.05).The arrangement of neurons was disordered,and the IOD value of NeuN positive neurons was significantly decreased(P＜0.05).The mRNA and protein expression levels of Clock,Bmal1,Rev-erbα and Rorα in brain tissue were significantly decreased(P＜0.05).The expression levels of cAMP,p-PKA/PKA and p-CREB/CREB in brain tissue were significantly decreased(P＜0.05).Compared with the model group,the aggressiveness of the rats in the administration group was significantly weakened,the circadian rhythm was rhythmic,the activity was reduced,and the sleep was increased.The sleep latency was significantly shortened(P＜0.05),and the sleep duration and SWS1,SWS2,REMS and TST were significantly prolonged(P＜0.05).The disorder of neuronal arrangement was restored,and the IOD value of NeuN positive neurons was significantly increased(P＜0.05).The mRNA and protein expression levels of Clock,Bmal1,Rev-erbα and Rorα in brain tissue were significantly increased(P＜0.05).The protein expression levels of cAMP,p-PKA/PKA and p-CREB/CREB in brain tissue were significantly increased(P＜0.05).Conclusion Saikosaponin A may improve the circadian rhythm of insomnia rats by activating cAMP/PKA/CREB pathway.

Objective To construct a prediction model for postoperative healthcare-associated infection(HAI)in elderly patients with hip fracture,analyze the economic burden,provide a reference and basis for the development of clinical prevention and control programs.Methods 627 elderly patients who underwent hip fracture surgery in a hospital from January 1,2017 to May 31,2023 were selected as the study subjects.Patients were randomly divided into a modeling group and a validation group at a 7:3 ratio.A logistic regression prediction model was constructed based on data from the modeling group,the discriminant and consistency of the model were evaluated by receiver ope-rating characteristic(ROC)curve and Hosmer-Lemeshow test,and the direct economic burden of postoperative HAI in patients was analyzed with 1∶1 propensity score matching(PSM).Results The incidence of postoperative HAI in elderly patients with hip fracture surgery was 12.1％,with pulmonary infection being the most common(52.6％).Logistic regression analysis showed that male,old age,perioperative disturbance of consciousness,gradeⅣ of American Society of Anesthesiologists(ASA)classification,low albumin level,and intensive care unit(ICU)admission were all independent risk factors for postoperative HAI in patients(all P＜0.05).There was good model discrimination and consistency between the training and validation groups in predicting the risk of postoperative HAI.The direct economic burden of postoperative HAI in patients was 7 927.4 Yuan,of which the burden of wes-tern medicine was the largest(3 139.7 Yuan).HAI prolonged patients hospitalization time by 3.6 days.Conclusion Postoperative HAI increases the economic burden of patients,the nomogram model constructed in this study can effectively predict the risk of postoperative HAI in patients,which can provide a basis for the early identification,as well as the implementation of targeted preventive and diagnostic measures for high-risk patients in the clinic.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.

Objective To study the expression and clinical significance of neural Wiskott-Alrdich syndrome protein(N-WASP)in pla-centas with preeclampsia.Methods This study included a total of 65 pregnant women:15 in the early-onset preeclampsia group,15 in the early-onset control group,15 in the late-onset preeclampsia group,and 20 in the late-onset control group.Real-time fluorescence quan-titative PCR(RT-qPCR)was used to detect the relative expression of N-WASP mRNA in placental tissues.Western blotting and immu-nohistochemistry were used to detect the expression and position of N-WASP protein in placental tissues from each group.Results RT-qPCR revealed significantly lower N-WASP mRNA expression levels in the placental tissue of the early-onset preeclampsia group compared to those in the early-onset control group(0.50±0.19 vs.0.93±0.73,P＜0.05).The N-WASP mRNA expression levels in late-onset preeclampsia placenta were significantly lower than those in the late-onset control group(0.83±0.34 vs.1.15±0.34,P＜0.05).Western blotting revealed significantly lower N-WASP protein expression in the placental tissue of early-onset preeclampsia compared to that in the early-onset control group(0.35±0.17 vs.0.72±0.21,P＜0.05).The N-WASP protein expression in late-onset preeclampsia placenta was significantly lower than that in the late-onset control group(0.39±0.16 vs.0.76±0.20,P＜0.05).The N-WASP mRNA expression in the placenta negatively correlated with the occurrence of early-onset(r =-0.37,P = 0.042)and late-onset preeclampsia(r =-0.39,P = 0.019).Immunohistochemistry revealed that N-WASP protein was localized in the cytoplasm of syncytiotrophoblasts,cytotrophoblasts,villous stromal cells,and vascular endothelial cells.Conclusion The low expression of N-WASP may be closely associated with preeclampsia.

Objective:To understand the clinical characteristics of novel coronavirus reinfection and explore the risk factors of novel coronavirus reinfection.Methods:The clinical data of 340 patients with novel coronavirus infection who were admitted to the Fever Clinic of Beijing Traditional Chinese Medicine, Capital Medical University from December 2022 to January 2023 were included. The general characteristics, basic diseases, clinical symptoms, and examination results of the first and second infections in the non repeated infection group, the repeated infection group, and the repeated infection group were compared. Binary logistic multivariate analysis was used to explore the risk factors of novel coronavirus reinfection.Results:In this study, 340 patients with novel coronavirus infection were included, 180 of whom were repeatedly infected. There was no statistically significant difference (all P>0.05) in terms of gender, age, body mass index (BMI), exercise, smoking, daily routine, and underlying disease between the recurrent infection group and the non recurrent infection group. However, the vaccination rate of the recurrent infection group was lower than that of the non recurrent infection group [80.0%(144/180) vs 88.0%(142/169), P<0.05]; In the repeated infection group, 157 cases (87.2%) were accompanied by overall discomfort (including headache, fatigue, muscle and joint pain), which was significantly higher than 122 cases (76.2%) in the non repeated infection group. The proportion of pneumonia occurring during the first infection was higher than that in the non repeated infection group [15.6%(28/180)], and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). The interval between the first and second infections in the repeated infection group was (166.2±8.3)days. Cough and phlegm were the main clinical manifestations of two infections; The duration of re infection was shorter than that of the first infection [(7.03±2.30)days vs (8.94±3.02)days, t=6.739, P<0.001]; Secondary infections had less incidence of pneumonia [5.0%(9/180) vs 15.6%(28/180), χ 2=10.874, P=0.001]; 153 patients (85.0%) reported milder secondary infections. The results of binary logistic regression showed that cough, expectoration, body discomfort and pneumonia during the first infection were risk factors for repeated infection of novel coronavirus ( OR=2.710, 2.293, 2.808, P<0.05), and vaccination was a protective factor to avoid repeated infection ( OR=0.470, P=0.019). Conclusions:The symptoms of novel coronavirus reinfection are generally mild and the course of disease is relatively short. For vulnerable people, novel coronavirus vaccine should be actively inoculated to strengthen protection.

Incarvillea younghusbandii Sprague is a traditional tonic herb. The roots are used as herbal medicine for nourishing and strengthening, as well as treating postpartum milk deficiency and weakness. In this study, the chloroplast genome of I. younghusbandii was sequenced and assembled by the high-throughput sequencing technology. The sequence characteristics, sequence repeats, codon usage bias, phylogenetic relationships and estimated divergence time of I. younghusbandii were analyzed. The 159 323 bp sequence contained a large single copy (80 197 bp), a small single copy (9 030 bp) and two inverted repeat sequences (35 048 bp). It contained 120 genes, including 77 protein coding genes, 8 ribosomal RNA genes and 35 transfer RNA genes. AAA was the most frequent codon in the chloroplast coding sequence of I. younghusbandii. A total of 42 simple sequence repeats were identified in the chloroplast genome. Phylogenetic analysis revealed I. younghusbandii was mostly like its taxonomically close relative Incarvillea compacta. The divergence between I. younghusbandii and I. compacta was dated to 4.66 million years ago. This study was significant for the scientific conservation and development of resources related to I. compacta. It also provides a basic genetic resource for the subsequent species identification of the genus Incarvillea, and the population genetic diversity study of Bignoniaceae.

【Objective】 To investigate the common etiology, characteristics and treatment of iatrogenic ureteral stricture. 【Methods】 The clinical data of 226 patients with ureteral stricture repaired during May 2019 and Mar. 2022 were retrospectively analyzed, including 68 cases of iatrogenic ureteral stricture. According to the etiology, the patients were divided into urinary group and non-urinary group. 【Results】 There were 42 females and 26 males, aged 25 to 67 (average 49.0±10.4) years. Upper ureteral stricture was detected in 24 (35.3%) cases, who received oral mucosal repair of the ureter. Middle ureteral stricture was detected in 12 (17.6%) cases, who underwent ileal ureterography. Lower ureteral stricture was observed in 24 (35.3%) cases, who were treated with vesical wall flap ureteroplasty. Full-length stricture was observed in 8 (11.8%) cases,who were treated with ileal ureterography. There were significant differences in age, gender, stenosis side, stenosis location and length, surgical methods and types between patients in the urinary group and non-urinary group (P<0.05). During the follow-up of 8 to 20 (average 12.3±5.6) months, the symptoms and renal function of all patients improved, and no recurrence occurred. 【Conclusion】 Invasive endourological surgery is the most common cause of iatrogenic ureteral stenosis. Different treatment strategies should be adopted according to patients’ condition, time of diagnosis and location and length of ureteral injury.
