Objective:To investigate the clinical application value of enhanced recovery after surgery using the LEER model in patients subjected to laparoscopic cholecystectomy in basic hospitals of Yi nationality area.Methods:Twenty-six patients who underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy based on the concept of enhancing recovery after surgery using the LEER model in People's Hospital of Jinkouhe District of Leshan from January to October 2021 were included in the observation group. An additional 20 patients who concurrently underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy and conventional intervention were included in the control group. Clinical efficacy, postoperative complications and postoperative pain were compared between the two groups.Results:Postoperative fasting time, length of hospital stay, and total hospital days in the observation group were 6 (6, 6) hours, 2 (2, 3) days and 4 (4, 6) days respectively, which were significantly shorter than 24 (24, 36) hours, 5 (5, 6) days, 7 (7, 9) days in the control group ( H = 351.00, 407.50, 458.00, all P < 0.05). Hospitalization cost in the observation group was 5 454.58 (5 014.11, 6 016.58) yuan, which was significantly lower than 6 611.91 (6 192.68, 7 841.73) yuan in the control group ( H = 420.00, P < 0.05). There were no significant differences in operative time and postoperative complications between the two groups (both P > 0.05). At postoperative 6 hours, Visual Analogue Scale score in the observation group was 3 (3, 4) points, and patients with mild pain accounted for 73.07% (19/26). At postoperative 24 hours, Visual Analogue Scale score in the observation group was 2 (2, 3) points, and patients with mild pain accounted for 92.31% (24/26). Overall pain was well controlled after surgery. Patient satisfaction rate in the observation was 96.15% (25/26). All patients recovered and were discharged. Conclusion:Application of enhanced recovery after surgery using the LEER model in patients subjected to laparoscopic cholecystectomy in basic hospitals of Yi nationality area can promote postoperative recovery, contribute to changing the theory of diagnosis and treatment, and improve overall medical quality. The enhanced recovery after surgery protocol using the LEER model has a good application value.

With the emergence of DNA nanotechnology in the 1980s, self-assembled DNA nanostructures have attracted considerable attention worldwide due to their inherent biocompatibility, unsurpassed programmability, and versatile functions. Especially promising nanostructures are tetrahedral framework nucleic acids (tFNAs), first proposed by Turberfield with the use of a one-step annealing approach. Benefiting from their various merits, such as simple synthesis, high reproducibility, structural stability, cellular internalization, tissue permeability, and editable functionality, tFNAs have been widely applied in the biomedical field as three-dimensional DNA nanomaterials. Surprisingly, tFNAs exhibit positive effects on cellular biological behaviors and tissue regeneration, which may be used to treat inflammatory and degenerative diseases. According to their intended application and carrying capacity, tFNAs could carry functional nucleic acids or therapeutic molecules through extended sequences, sticky-end hybridization, intercalation, and encapsulation based on the Watson and Crick principle. Additionally, dynamic tFNAs also have potential applications in controlled and targeted therapies. This review summarized the latest progress in pure/modified/dynamic tFNAs and demonstrated their regenerative medicine applications. These applications include promoting the regeneration of the bone, cartilage, nerve, skin, vasculature, or muscle and treating diseases such as bone defects, neurological disorders, joint-related inflammatory diseases, periodontitis, and immune diseases.

Objective:To investigate the impact of adding human menopausal gonadotropin (hMG) for in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer pregnancy outcomes in a standard population of non-advanced age with normal ovarian reserve function using a long follicular phase protocol.Methods:Clinical data of 489 patients with normal ovarian reserve function, who were admitted from January 2018 to January 2020 in the Affiliated Hospital of Guizhou Medical University and underwent in vitro fertilization for the first time with the long follicular phase protocol in fresh cycles, were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were divided into three groups according to whether or not to add urine-derived hMG and the timing of addition: non-addition group (group A), medium-term hMG group (group B1), whole course hMG group (group B2); the laboratory parameters of each group were observed, and the effect of ovulation induction drugs and pregnancy outcomes were compared.Results:The ages of B1 and B2 groups were significantly higher than that of group A ( P=0.019 and P=0.011). The basal FSH level of group B2 was significantly higher than those of group A and group B1 ( P<0.01 and P=0.006), and the basal FSH/LH ratio of group B2 was significantly higher than that of group B1 ( P=0.009). Antral follicle counts of group A and group B1 were significantly higher than that of group B2 ( P=0.007 and P=0.017). The superior embryo rate of group B2 [(47±27)%] was significantly higher than that of group A ( P=0.017). The embryo implantation rate of group B1 was significantly lower than those of group A and group B2 ( P=0.043 and P<0.01). The clinical pregnancy rate of group B2 [76.7% (155/202)] was significantly higher than those of group A ( P=0.039) and group B1 ( P<0.01). The live-birth rate of group B2 [67.3% (136/202)] was significantly higher than those of group A ( P=0.017) and group B1 ( P=0.001). Conclusions:For non-advanced aged patients with normal ovarian reserve function, the long protocol of follicular phase is suitable for those with relatively low ovarian reserve function. Adding hMG in the whole course of ovulation induction after gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist reduction could improve the pregnancy outcomes by improving the quality of embryos.

Objective To indentify the cognitive status of Chinese patients to acne and the influencing factors to theirs' cognitive status,so as to provide solid evidences for the prevention and treatment of acne.Methods A self-designed questionnaire was made to conduct this survey of 16,156 acne patients,who seeked to the treatment in the dermatological departments from 112 hospitals in China.The survey consisted of several parts,including the general status of patients,the patients' cognition of occurrence,development and risk factors of acne,whether the first choice was seeking treatment at the hospital when the patients had acne and the condition of selection of skin care products.The factors were analyzed,which could impact the cognition of the patients' behavior of treatment,how did the patients' cognition to influence their medical behavior and skin care as well as the consistency of assessment of the severity of acne by doctors and patients themselves.Results The acne patients studied had the best knowledge of "acne is a skin disease","it not only occurs in the period of adolescence" and "the disease can be prevented and cured",which accordingly accounted for 80.65％,69.16％ and 65.49％ of the total patients respectively.However,the awareness of acne patients to heredity,high sugar and dairy products as risk factors for acne was insufficient,which accounted for 48.72％,42.40％ and 18.25％ of the total patients,respectively.Gender,age,educational level,occupation and health knowledge were the main factors affecting the cognitive level of patients;the survey also found that men,patient with educational level of junior high or even lower educational condition,occupation of labor workers or farmers and patients were lack of health education with poor knowledge of the genetics and dietary were risk factors for acne;patients with age over 36 years or with mild illness had poor knowledge of dietary risk factors for acne;the difference was statistically significant (P＜0.05).The analysis of the influence of cognitive status on medical treatment behavior and skin care showed that the better the cognition,the higher the probability of patients would choose medical treatment as the first choice as well as choosing functional skin care products;the difference was statistically significant (P＜0.05).The consistency of assessment of the severity of acne by doctors and patients was poor (Kappa value ＜0.4),and the assessment of severity of acne by patients was more serious than doctors' assessment.Conclusions Patient's cognitive status will affect their medical behavior and skin care,and there is also a phenomenon that patients have a more serious assessment of their acne condition.It is suggested that health education for acne patients should be strengthened in clinical medicine so as to improve their knowledge of acne as well as preventing from acne effectively.
