OBJECTIVE To systematically analyze the compatibility stability of commonly used intravenous antibiotics in the intensive care unit （ICU）， and to provide evidence-based support for rational clinical drug use. METHODS Medication data from the ICU of Hebei General Hospital between January and December 2024 were extracted from the Prescription Automatic Screening System. Commonly used intravenous antibiotics and other intravenous drugs in the ICU were selected through consultations with critical care and pharmacy experts in Hebei province， drug package inserts and compatibility information retrieved from Micromedex， Trissel’s Injectable Drug Handbook and PubMed. The physicochemical stability of drug combinations was analyzed. In addition， Cytoscape 3.10.2 software was used to construct a drug compatibility network for identifying high-risk drugs. RESULTS &CONCLUSIONS A total of 904 pairwise drug combinations involving 16 antibacterial agents and 65 intravenous drugs were collected. Among them， 549 combinations （60.7%） were compatible， 88 combinations （9.7%） were incompatible， 82 combinations （9.1%） had conflicting evidence， and 185 combinations （20.5%） lacked valid data support. High-risk combination drugs primarily involved Amphotericin B for injection， Ceftazidime for injection， Imipenem-cilastatin for injection， Ceftriaxone sodium for injection， Vancomycin hydrochloride for injection， etc. The main risk factors for drug-drug incompatibility included drug concentration， temperature， mixing rate， pH， and chemical structure. In clinical practice， drugs and diluents should be selected rationally based on specific compatibility data， and research and monitoring of drug compatibility should be further strengthened.

Objective To analyze the influencing factors for postoperative anastomotic leak (AL) in carcinoma of the esophagus and gastroesophageal junction and construct a nomogram predictive model. Methods The patients who underwent radical esophagectomy at Jinling Hospital Affiliated to Nanjing University School of Medicine from January 2018 to June 2020 were included in this study. Relevant variables were screened using univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses. A nomogram was then developed to predict the risk factors associated with postoperative AL. The predictive performance of the nomogram was validated using the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. Results A total of 468 patients with carcinoma of the esophagus and gastroesophageal junction were included in the study, comprising 354 males and 114 females, with a mean age of (62.8±7.2) years. The tumors were predominantly located in the middle or lower esophagus, and 51 (10.90%) patients experienced postoperative AL. Univariate logistic regression analysis indicated that age, body mass index (BMI), tumor location, preoperative albumin levels, diabetes mellitus, anastomosis technique, anastomosis site, and C-reactive protein (CRP) levels were potentially associated with AL (P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis identified age, BMI, tumor location, diabetes mellitus, anastomosis technique, and CRP levels as independent risk factors for AL (P<0.05). A nomogram was developed based on the findings from the multivariate logistic regression analysis. The area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was 0.803, indicating a strong concordance between the actual observations and the predicted outcomes. Furthermore, decision curve analysis demonstrated that the newly established nomogram holds significant value for clinical decision-making. Conclusion The predictive model for postoperative AL in patients with carcinoma of the esophagus and gastroesophageal junction demonstrates strong predictive validity and is essential for guiding clinical monitoring, early detection, and preventive strategies.

Objective:To investigate the effect of securinine(SEC)on apoptosis of the human colon cancer cell line SW620,and to elucidate its possible mechanism.Methods:The nude mice with subcutaneously transplanted tumor were divided into control group(n=6),oxaliplatin(OXA)group(n=7),and SEC group(n=7).The volume and mass of subcutaneous tumors in the nude mice were measured in various groups,and the tumor inhibitory rates in various groups were calculated.The SW620 cells were treated with different doses(5-120 μmol·L-1)of SEC for 12,24,48,and 72 h,respectively.Cell counting kit-8(CCK-8)assay was used to assess the survival rates of cells in various groups,and the optimal doses of SEC were confirmed.The SW620 cells were divided into control group,20 μmol·L-1 SEC group,40 μmol·L-1SEC group,and 40 μmol·L-1OXA group.TUNEL staining method and flow cytometry were used to detect the apoptotic rates of cells in various groups.JC-1 staining was used to detect the mitochondrial membrane potentials of cells in various groups,and 2',7'-dichlorodi-hydrofluorescin diacetate(DCFH-DA)fluorescence staining and flow cytometry were used to measure the reactive oxygen species(ROS)levels in the cells in various groups.Western blotting method was used to detect the expression levels of cytochrome C,B-cell lymphoma-2(Bcl-2),Bcl-2-associated X protein(Bax),c-Jun N-terminal kinase(JNK),phosphorylated JNK(p-JNK),mitogen-activated protein kinase p38,phosphorylated p38(p-p38),extracellular signal-regulated kinase(ERK)and phosphorylated ERK(p-ERK)proteins in the cells in various groups.Results:Compared with control group,the volume and mass of subcutaneously transplanted tumors in the nude mice in SEC group were significantly decreased(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01 or P＜0.001);the inhibitory rates of tumor in SEC group and OXA group were 20.42％and 6.50％.The CCK-8 assay results showed that compared with 0 μmol·L-1 SEC,when the SEC dose exceeded 20 μmol·L-1,the survival rates of SW620 cells were significantly decreased(P＜0.001).The optimal condition for subsequent experiments was set as doses of 20 μmol·L-1SEC and 40 μmol·L-1SEC,and duration of 24 h.The TUNEL results showed that compared with control group,the apoptotic rates of cells in 20 and 40 μmol·L-1 SEC groups were significantly increased(P＜0.05 or P＜0.001).The results of flow cytometry showed that compared with control group,the apoptotic rate in 40 μmol·L-1SEC group was significantly increased(P＜0.001).The JC-1 staining results showed that compared with control group,the mitochondrial membrane potentials of cells in 20 and 40 μmol·L-1 SEC groups were significantly decreased(P＜0.001).Compared with control group,the levels of ROS detected by DCFH-DA fluorescence staining in the cells of 20 and 40 μmol·L-1 SEC groups and 40 μmol·L-1 OXA group were significantly increased(P＜0.001),while the level of ROS detected by flow cytometry in 40 μmol·L-1SEC group was significantly increased(P＜0.05).Compared with control group,the expression levels of Bcl-2 protein in the cells in 20 and 40 μmol·L-1 SEC groups and 40 μmol·L-1 OXA group were decreased(P＜0.01),while the expression levels of cytochrome C and Bax proteins were increased(P＜0.001).Compared with control group,the ratios of p-JNK/JNK,p-p38/p38 and p-ERK/ERK in 20 and 40 μmol·L-1 SEC groups were significantly increased(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01 or P＜0.001).Conclusion:SEC can inhibit the proliferation of SW620 cells,increase the cellular ROS levels,reduce the mitochondrial membrane potential,and induce the mitochondrial apoptosis;its mechanism may be related to the regulation of the mitogen-activated protein kinase(MAPK)signaling pathway.

Aptamers are a class of short DNA/RNA single strand oligonucleotides that can bind to target molecules with high affinity specificity. They have the advantages of high affinity specificity, low molecular weight and low immunogenicity, and have been widely used in biomedical research, clinical diagnosis and therapy, and biosensor development. Systematic evolution of ligand by exponential enrichment (SELEX) is an in vitro screening technique, which enriches the aptamers with high affinity and specific binding to the target through multiple cycles of screening, and has a wide range of applications in tumor therapy.

ObjectiveTo assess the clinical efficacy and regulation of skin microbiota in children with atopic dermatitis and damp-heat accumulation syndrome treated by Zhaqu Xiaofeng Powder （楂曲消风散， ZXP）. MethodsNinety children were randomized into a treatment group and a control group， each with 45 children. The treatment group received ZXP orally， while the control group received levocetirizine hydrochloride syrup， both for 4 weeks. The atopic dermatitis severity index （SCORAD）score， visual analog scale （VAS）score for itching， children dermatology life quality index （CDLQI）score， and traditional Chinese medicine syndrome score were assessed before and after 2- and 4-week treatment. Simultaneously， adhering to the principles of sample size in microbial sequencing， 25 children were randomly selected from each group （total 50 children）； skin samples were collected before and after treatment， and skin specimen DNA was extracted for 16S rRNA gene amplifier sequencing； the skin microbiota levels were detected， and the distribution of bacteria， diversity of flora， and differences between groups were compared. ResultsThere were five drop-outs in each group， and 40 cases in each group were included in final analysis. After 2- and 4-week treatment， both groups showed a significant reduction in SCORAD scores， VAS scores， and CDLQI scores， and more reductions were shown after 4-week treatment than 2-week treatment （P＜0.01）. The SCORAD score， VAS score， and CDLQI score of the treatment group were significantly lower than those in the control group after 4-week treatment （P＜0.01）. The scores of upset， thirsty， poor appetite， short red urine， and dry stool were reduced in the treatment group （P＜0.05）， while the scores of thirsty， poor appetite， short and red urine decreased after treatment （P＜0.05）. After 4 weeks of treatment， among the differential genera with abundances ＞0.5% in the treatment group， The cumulative relative abundances of Staphylococcus aureus， Streptococcus_mitis， Escherichia coli and Gemella_haemolysans in the treatment group were downregulated after treatment； in the control group， there was a relative cumulative decrease in the abundance of Streptococcus_mitis. The control group had reduced relative abundance of Streptococcus_mitis， Escherichia coli， Staphylococcus aureus and Gemella_haemolysans， after treatment （P＜0.05）. Alpha diversity analysis revealed an increase in both Chaol index and Shannon index after treatment （P＜0.05）， while there was no significant difference in Chaol index and Shannon index in the control group before and after treatment （P＞0.05）. Higher Chaol index and Shannon index were found in the treatment group （P＜0.05）. Beta diversity analysis showed that there were significant differences in the microbial community structure at the lesion site between the treatment group and the control group before treatment. The microbial community structure in the treatment group was similar after treatment， while there was no significant change in the microbial community structure in the control group before and after treatment. There were significant structure differences of key bacteria genus in both groups before and after treatment. ConclusionZXP used in the treatment of pediatric atopic dermatitis （AD）with the syndrome of damp-heat accumulation， has shown efficacy in reducing the severity of skin lesions， alleviating itching， and enhancing the quality of life in children. This modulation aims to decrease the abundance of pathogenic bacteria while promoting the colonization of beneficial bacteria， thereby altering the skin microbiota and contributing to the treatment of pediatric AD.

Objective:To carry out preimplantation genetic testing (PGT) for a Chinese pedigree affected with Rett syndrome (RTT).Methods:A pedigree affected with RTT who had presented at the First Hospital of Jilin University on June 4, 2021 was selected as the study subject. Variant of the MECP2 gene was analyzed by next generation sequencing (NGS) and Sanger sequencing. Direct sequencing was also used to determine the carrier status for the c. 925C>T variant of the MECP2 gene in the blastocysts, and Sanger sequencing was used to validate the results. The MECP2 gene and 168 effective single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) loci within 2 Mb ranges up- and downstream of the gene were used to construct a haplotype for analyzing the variant site in the embryos, and embryos without the variant were subjected to the analysis for chromosomal aneuploidies. Results:PGT analysis revealed that five out of seven blastocysts did not harbor the pathogenic variant. The results of aneuploidy analysis indicated that two out of five blastocysts without the variant were euploid. Following genetic counselling, the couple had opted to transplant the optimal blastocyst. Following clinical pregnancy, prenatal diagnosis showed that the fetus has a normal chromosomal karyotype, and the c. 925C>T variant was not detected in the amniotic fluid sample. A healthy girl was born by Cesarean section at full term.Conclusion:NGS can attain efficient PGT detection and reduce the risk of disease recurrence in families affected with RTT.

Objective:Synchronous mucinous metaplasia and neoplasia of the female genital tract (SMMN-FGT) occurring at multiple sites during the same period of time is extremely rare, and the aim of this study was to investigate the clinicopathologic features of SMMN-FGT and its relationship with prognosis.Methods:We retrospectively analyzed the clinicopathological features and follow-up records of 25 cases of SMMN-FGT diagnosed from January 2012 to October 2022 in the case database of Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital of Fudan University.Results:The median age at onset was 46 years old, respectively. Clinical manifestations included irregular vaginal bleeding or drainage, pelvic pain, and ovarian cysts, etc. Germline genetic test confirmed Peutz-Jeghers syndrome (P-J syndrome) in two patients. All patients underwent surgery, and 13 patients had postoperative adjuvant radiotherapy and/or chemotherapy. The most frequent site of lesion was the cervix (21 cases), with 11, 10 and 16 cases occurring in the endometrium, fallopian tubes and ovaries, respectively. Six cases involved three sites simultaneously, and only one case had all four sites involved at the same time. Among the 9 cases with P53 mutation phenotype, 6 cases had gastric-type mucinous adenocarcinoma, 2 cases had lobular endocervical glandular hyperplasia, and 1 case had mucinous adenocarcinoma, whereas all the minimally deviated adenocarcinomas had wild phenotype of P53. The median follow-up time was 59 months, during which 3 cases died and 6 cases developed local recurrence or distant metastasis. According to our analysis, postoperative recurrence or metastasis was correlated with the FIGO stage of the disease, the number of lesion sites and the severe degree of the uterine lesions ( P＜0.05). Conclusions:SMMN-FGT has a relatively good clinical prognosis, and even advanced patients can benefit from surgery and adjuvant therapy. In young patients, the ovaries may be preserved if no evidence of lesions are seen after adequate evaluation. In SMMN-FGT, gastric-type mucinous adenocarcinoma occurring in the cervix may have a better prognosis than gastric-type mucinous adenocarcinoma of the cervix alone, so the accurate diagnosis of SMMN-FGT is critical for clinical management.

In recent years,challenges persist in the grassroots Party building in the university-affiliated hospitals though increased efforts have been intensified.These challenges include a lack of alignment between Party building and the hospital's central tasks,an absence of distinctive Party building brands,an insufficiently prominent role of Party organizations in hospital development,and inadequate leveraging of the Party construction for promoting medical services and cultivating medical talents.Starting from an exploration of the connotation and significance of constructing framework of"One Integration and Two Highs"in university-affiliated hospitals,this paper conducts an in-depth analysis of the existing problems and their causes within this frame-work.From a holistic perspective,the paper proposes a new path for establishing the"One Integration and Two Highs"frame-work in university-affiliated hospitals,centered around"Seven Integrations":concept integration,organization integration,strength integration,vehicle integration,culture integration,innovation integration,and assessment integration.

Objective:To observe the anti-inflammatory and glycometabolic effects of glutathione(GSH)on macrophages in collagen induced arthritis(CIA)mice.Methods:①CIA model establishment and groups:A total of 14 female DBA/1J mice were ran-domly divided into:CIA+PBS group and CIA+GSH group.The mice were sacrificed on the 50th day,collecting serum and isolating bone marrow derived macrophages(BMDM),which were marked as BMDM1.②Trained immunity model establishment and groups:BMDM were isolated from normal DBA/1J mice,and were pretreated with histone H3K27 demethylases inhibitor(GSKJ1)or PBS for 2 h.Then,serum from CIA model mice in vivo was incubated for 24 h,and the samples were grouped as follows:(CIA+GSH)+PBS group,(CIA+GSH)+GSKJ1 group,(CIA+PBS)+PBS group,(CIA+PBS)+GSKJ1 group.Lipopolysaccharide(LPS)was adopted to stimulated cells on the 6th day,which were marked as BMDM2.③RNA sequencing was used to detect differentially expressed genes(DEGs)and their function in BMDM1 and BMDM2.q-PCR was adopted to estimate the mRNA levels of PFK and Idh3g.The culture supernatants were used to measure the protein levels of TNF-α and IL-6 by ELISA.Results:①Compared with CIA+PBS group,the mice in CIA+GSH group showed lighter of joint swelling(P<0.05),less arthritis index(P<0.05),HE staining suggested less inflam-matory cell infiltration,Safranin O-fast green staining showed more chondrocytes,TRAP staining indicated reduced osteoclasts.②In BMDM1,GO analysis showed that DEGs were mainly involved in glutathione derivative metabolic process,IL-6 production,inflammatory response,innate immune response,regulation of primary metabolic process and glycolipid binding,compared with CIA+GSH and CIA+PBS group.In CIA+GSH group,the mRNA level of PFK was significantly decreased(P<0.05),while Idh3g was also significantly up-regulated(P<0.05),and the expression of TNF-α,IL-6 were both reduced(P<0.05)compared with CIA+PBS group.③In BMDM2,GO analysis showed that DEGs were also involved in inflammatory response,activation of innate immune response,regulation of tumor necrosis factor production,positive regulation of IL-6 production,regulation of glycolytic process and 1,3-β-D-glucan binding between CIA+GSH and CIA+PBS group.Furthermore,in(CIA+GSH)+PBS group,PFK was decreased(P<0.05),Idh3g was up-regulated(P<0.05),and IL-6 was also significantly down-regulated(P<0.05)compared with(CIA+PBS)+PBS group.However,there was no significant difference in the expression of Idh3g and PFK,moreover,TNF-α and IL-6 were significantly up-regulated compared with(CIA+GSH)+GSKJ1 group and(CIA+GSH)+PBS group.Conclusion:GSH can regulate glycometabolism and inflammatory response of macrophages via demethylation of histone H3K27,and it can also alleviate CIA in mice.
