Objective:To explore the application of the 4R problem analysis method combined with reverse teaching in nursing teaching in the pediatric operating room.Methods:In this study, 480 nursing students who were assigned to the operating room of Hunan Children's Hospital for internship from August 2020 to August 2022 were selected as research subjects. They were divided into control group and observation group in order of admission, with 240 students in each group. The control group received traditional teaching, while the observation group received the 4R problem analysis method combined with reverse teaching. At the end of the internship, the two groups were compared for comprehensive ability assessment scores, recognition of nursing teaching, and degree of satisfaction with the teaching. The t-test and χ2 test were performed using SPSS 22.0. Results:The scores of theoretical knowledge, basic nursing skills, specialized nursing skills in the operating room, and comprehensive nursing skill assessment of the observation group were significantly higher than those of the control group ( P<0.05). The recognition of nursing teaching among the nursing interns in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group ( P<0.001). There was a significant difference in the degree of satisfaction with the teaching between the two groups of nursing interns ( χ2=118.35, P<0.001). Conclusions:The 4R problem analysis method combined with reverse teaching can effectively improve the nursing teaching quality and the degree of satisfaction with the teaching among nursing interns in the pediatric operating room, enabling them to better grasp theoretical and practical skills.

Objective To investigate the association between the serum creatinine/cystatin C ratio(SCr/Cys C)as a Sarcopenia index(SI)and the incidence of in-hospital adverse events in patients with acute myocardial infarction(AMI)undergoing emergency percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI).Additionally,we evaluate the predictive efficacy of the SI in predicting major adverse cardiovascular events(MACEs)during hospitalization.Methods A total of 306 patients with AMI who underwent emergency PCI in the 904th Hospital of PLA Joint Logistics Support Force from January 2020 to March 2023 were consecutively included in this retrospective analysis.Patients were divided into two groups based on the occurrence of MACEs during hospitalization:MACEs group(n=43)and non-MACEs group(n=263).Clinical characteristics and pre-PCI laboratory test results were collected.Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed to identify independent risk factors for MACEs.The predictive performance of SI was assessed using receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve analysis.Results The incidence of in-hospital MACEs in AMI patients was 14.1%.The results of the independent samples t-test showed that the SI level in MACEs group was significantly lower than that in non-MACEs group,with a statistically significant difference(P<0.001).The results of the multivariate logistic regression analysis suggested that new-onset atrial fibrillation,Killip class 2-4,SI,and TG were independent risk factors for in-hospital adverse events after emergency PCI.The ROC curve results showed that the predictive value of SI(AUC=0.741,95%CI 0.666-0.816)using the SCr/Cys C ratio was superior to that of single Cys C(AUC=0.658,95%CI 0.570-0.746)for predicting post-PCI MACEs,with a statistically significant difference(P<0.05),and the optimal cutoff value for SI was 78.14.After stratifying SI based on the cutoff value,the results of the independent samples t-test showed that compared to the higher SI group,the lower SI group had a higher occurrence of specific adverse events such as heart failure(P<0.001),malignant arrhythmias(P=0.009),and strokes(P=0.003),with statistically significant differences.Conclusions The results highlight SI as an independent risk factor for MACEs during hospitalization after emergency PCI in AMI patients.Furthermore,SI has proven to be an effective prognostic index for patient outcomes.

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.

Transcatheter aortic valve replacement(TAVR)is the use of interventional catheter to transport the artificial heart valve to the aortic valve area through the patient's arterial,venous system or left ventricular apex,then release it to replace the original aortic valve to achieve normal physiological function.The"suicide left ventricle"phenomenon refers to the paradoxical hemodynamic collapse of dynamic left ventricular obstruction caused by left ventricular hypertrophy and hypersystole after the removal of the fixed valve obstruction of aortic stenosis after TAVR.The clinical manifestation is abnormal continuous hypotension that is ineffective to positive inotropic drugs during the operation or within a few hours after the operation.With the indications for transcatheter aortic valve surgery covering patients with low,medium and high risk of severe aortic stenosis,surgery-related complications have been reported to increase gradually."Suicide left ventricle"is worth studying and exploring as a fatal potential complication.This article mainly reviews four aspects of the overview of"suicide left ventricle",pathological mechanism,risk-related indicators,prevention strategies and treatment methods to be highly vigilant and make corresponding emergency plans for patients with aortic stenosis who may have suicide left ventricle risk,so as to minimize perioperative mortality.

Redox-sensitive cysteine(RSC)thiol plays an important role in many biological processes such as photosynthesis,cellular metabolism,and transcription.Therefore,it is necessary to identify red-ox-sensitive cysteine accurately.However,traditional redox-sensitive cysteine identification is very ex-pensive and time-consuming.At present,there is an urgent need for a mathematical calculation method to identify sequence information and redox-sensitive cysteines quickly and accurately.Here,we devel-oped an effective predictor called iRSC-PseAAC,which used the dimension reduction algorithm LDA combined with the support vector machine to predict redox-sensitive cysteine sites.In the cross-validation results,the specificity(Sp),sensitivity(Sn),accuracy(Acc)and Matthews correlation coefficient(MCC)were 0.841,0.868,0.859 and 0.692 respectively.In the independent dataset results,the Sp,Sn,Acc and MCC were 0.906,0.882,0.890 and 0.767 respectively.compared with existing prediction methods,iRSC-PseAAC had obvious improvement effect.The method proposed for this study can also be used for many problems in computational proteomics.

Objective:To summarize the characteristics of oral contrast ultrasound in patients with esophageal hiatal hernia (EHH), to screen the diagnostic criteria for EHH diagnosis by oral contrast ultrasound and to evaluate their diagnostic values.Methods:Sixty-one patients who visited the Hernia and Abdominal Wall Surgery Department of the Sixth Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University from June 2023 to December 2023 for symptoms of acid reflux, heartburn, belching, recurrent epigastric pain, chest pain, and cough, and who were clinically suspected of EHH and underwent oral contrast ultrasound were retrospectively collected. The internal diameter of the esophageal hiatus, the length of the intraabdominal esophagus (IAEL), the angle of His, the supradiaphragmatic hernia sac, the sign of gastric wall sliding, and the sign of esophageal-gastric ring uplift were recorded by oral contrast ultrasound. All ultrasonographic data were retrospectively analyzed, and the diagnosis of EHH by surgery or with the simultaneous diagnosis of EHH by barium meal examination and gastroscopy were used as the gold standard. The diagnostic criteria of oral contrast ultrasound for EHH were obtained and their diagnostic values were evaluated by ROC curve analysis.Results:The indicators of EHH diagnosed by oral contrast ultrasound were analyzed according to ROC curves as follows: internal diameter of esophageal hiatus >15 mm (AUC=0.913), IAEL≤33 mm (AUC=0.776), angle of His > 90° (AUC=0.735), supradiaphragmatic hernia sac (AUC=0.913), gastric wall sliding sign (AUC=0.827), upward displacement of the esophagogastric ring (AUC=0.721). The diagnostic sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, positive predictive value, negative predictive value, AUC, and 95% CI of the diagnosis of EHH using the internal diameter of the esophageal hiatus >15 mm or the presence of a supradiaphragmatic hernia sac as the diagnostic criterion for the diagnosis of EHH by oral contrast ultrasound were 86.5%, 100%, 88.5%, 100%, 56.3%, 0.933, and 0.838-0.981, respectively. Conclusions:The optimal diagnostic criterion for EHH diagnosis by oral contrast ultrasound is esophageal hiatal internal diameter >15 mm or the presence of supradiaphragmatic hernia sac, which has 100% specificity and positive predictive value. It is recommended to be widely used as a screening test for EHH in the clinic.

ObjectiveTo establish a quantitative analysis multi-components by single marker method （QAMS） for five main components （aucubin， geniposidic acid， chlorogenic acid， asperuloside and rutin） in Eucommiae Folium， to verify its feasibility and applicability in the determination of Eucommiae Folium， so as to provide a scientific basis for the development of quality standard of this herb. MethodHigh performance liquid chromatography was performed on a Welch Boltmatetm™ C₁₈ column （4.6 mm×100 mm， 2.7 μm） with methanol （A）-0.2% phosphoric acid aqueous solution （B） as the mobile phase for gradient elution （0-8 min， 3%A； 8-10 min， 3%-11%A； 10-26 min， 11%A； 26-27 min， 11%-25%A； 27-60 min， 25%-32%A）， the column temperature was set at 30 ℃， the flow rate was 0.6 mL·min^-1， the detection wavelengths were at 210 nm and 254 nm. Chlorogenic acid was used as an internal reference to establish the relative correction factors （f） between it and the other four components， and the contents of the five components in 14 batches of Eucommiae Folium were determined by QAMS and external standard method （ESM）， respectively. ResultThe f values of chlorogenic acid to aucubin， geniposidic acid， asperuloside and rutin were 3.13， 1.45， 2.64 and 0.56， respectively. Repeatability was good under different experimental conditions， relative standard deviation （RSD） was <5.0%. The contents of aucubin， geniposidic acid， chlorogenic acid， asperuloside and rutin in 14 batches of Eucommiae Folium were 1.340-28.975， 0.252-36.086， 10.016-27.443， 1.396-8.646， 0.533-1.766 mg·g^-1， respectively. There were no significant difference between content results of QAMS and that of ESM （RSD<5.0%）. ConclusionQAMS established with chlorogenic acid as the internal reference can be used to determine the contents of five components in Eucommiae Folium， and this method is simple and accurate. After comprehensive evaluation， the quality standard of Eucommiae Folium in subsequent editions of Chinese Pharmacopoeia is suggested that three main active components， chlorogenic acid， aucubin and geniposidic acid， are selected as quality markers， and their content limits are recommended not less than 1.5%， 1.0% and 1.0%， respectively. This quality standard draft can avoid the potential quality risk due to poor specificity and low content limit of the index component （chlorogenic acid） in the previous editions of Chinese Pharmacopoeia.

ObjectiveTo prepare matrine lipid-based cubic liquid crystalline nanoparticle （MAT-LLCN） gels and investigate its in vitro release and transdermal absorption behavior. MethodTaking entrapment efficiency as the index， the optimal formulation of MAT-LLCN was screened by extreme vertex mixture method based on the optimal ratio of glycerol monooleate （GMO） to poloxamer 407 （P407）， and its drug loading was investigated. MAT-LLCN gels was prepared by mixing MAT-LLCN with pre-swelled carbomer 940 as the gel matrix. The structure of MAT-lipid-based cubic liquid crystalline （LLC） was characterized by polarized light microscopy （PLM） and small angle X-ray scattering （SAXS）. The in vitro release and transdermal absorption properties of MAT-LLCN gels and MAT ordinary gels were compared by modified Franz diffusion cell method， skin structure changes caused by them were observed by hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining. ResultThe optimal formulation of MAT-LLCN gels was 5.5% of GMO-P407 （9∶1）， 1%-6% of MAT， 0.6% of carbomer 940， adding water to sufficient amount. The prepared MAT-LLC was confirmed as body-centered （Im3m） LLC. The in vitro release behavior of MAT-LLCN gels was in accordance with the Weibull equation （R²=0.954 0）， and the release mechanism was the Fick diffusion. In vitro transdermal test showed that all the parameters of MAT-LLCN gels were higher than those of MAT ordinary gels （P<0.05）， including cumulative release rate， steady-state release rate and the amount of drug retention in skin. HE staining results showed that MAT-LLCN gels could loose the cellular arrangement of skin stratum corneum， and maintain the stability of the cell structure of the dermis. ConclusionThe prepared MAT-LLCN gels can accelerate the transdermal drug transport and form drug storage in the dermis by rapidly opening the skin stratum corneum barrier， suggesting that LLC has good application prospects in the field of transdermal drug delivery.
