Objective:To compare the efficacy of O-arm navigation-assisted and conventional posterior cervical expansive open-door laminoplasty (CEOL) via the intermuscular approach in the treatment of cervical spinal cord injury without fracture-dislocation (CSCIWFD).Methods:A prospective cohort study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 60 CSCIWFD patients who were admitted to Zhengzhou Orthopedic Hospital from May 2021 to May 2023, with compression at C3-C6. Patients were randomly divided into two groups: 30 patients underwent O-arm navigation-assisted intermuscular approach CEOL (navigation-assisted group) and 30 patients underwent conventional intermuscular approach CEOL (conventional surgery group). Surgical duration, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative drainage volume, and total surgical blood loss were compared between the two groups. At 2 weeks postoperatively, CT scan was performed to evaluate the accuracy of hinge or open-door position preparation of the surgical segments. Visual analogue scale (VAS) for neck and shoulder pain and Japanese Orthopedic Association (JOA) scores were compared between the two groups preoperatively, at 2 weeks, 6 months postoperatively, and at the last follow-up. Complication rates were also evaluated.Results:A total of 60 patients with CSCIWFD were included, comprising 35 males and 25 females, aged 35-77 years [(50.9±8.6)years]. All the patients were followed up for 12-24 months [(16.9±3.1)months]. The surgical duration and intraoperative blood loss were (121.6±17.9)minutes and (144.7±44.2)ml in the navigation-assisted group, shorter or less than (132.3±14.6)minutes and (178.7±48.7)ml in the conventional surgery group ( P<0.05). There were no statistically significant differences in postoperative drainage volume and total surgical blood loss between the two groups ( P>0.05). CT scan reviewed at 2 weeks postoperatively revealed that the accuracy rate of hinge and open-door position preparation of the surgical segments in the navigation-assisted group was 99.2% (119/120), significantly higher than 86.7% (104/120) in the conventional surgery group ( P<0.01). Before operation and at 2 weeks, 6 months postoperatively, and at the last follow-up, the VAS scores for neck and shoulder pain and JOA scores in the navigation-assisted group were 5.0(4.0, 7.0)points and (8.7±2.8)points, 3.0(2.0, 4.0)points and (10.2±2.5)points, 2.0(1.0, 2.0)points and (1 3.0±1.8)points, and 1.0(1.0, 2.0)points and (13.9±1.5)points respectively, while in the conventional surgery group, the VAS scores and JOA scores were 5.5(5.0, 6.3)points and (8.8±2.6)points, 4.0(3.0, 4.0)points and (10.4±2.5)points, 2.0(1.0, 3.0)points and (12.9±2.2)points, and 2.0(1.0, 2.0)points and (13.8±2.0)points ( P>0.05). Both groups showed improvement in neck and shoulder VAS scores and JOA scores at 2 weeks, 6 months postoperatively, and at the last follow-up, compared to preoperative scores ( P<0.05); further improvement was observed at 6 months postoperatively and at the last follow-up compared to that at 2 weeks postoperatively ( P<0.05). There were no significant differences between neck and shoulder VAS scores or JOA scores at 6 months postoperatively and at the last follow-up ( P>0.05). In the navigation-assisted group, 2 patients had axial neck-shoulder pain postoperatively, with a complication rate of 7% (2/30); while in the conventional surgery group, 7 patients had axial neck-shoulder pain and one patient developed cerebrospinal fluid leakage and low-pressure headache, with a complication rate of 27% (8/30) ( P<0.05). Conclusion:Compared to the conventional intermuscular approach, O-arm navigation-assisted intermuscular approach CEOL for CSCIWFD reduces surgical duration and intraoperative blood loss, improves the accuracy of hinge and open-door position preparation, and lowers complication rates.

Clinical pharmacist training is an important way to strengthen the clinical pharmacist team's construction and improve their pharmaceutical service capabilities and levels.The Pharmacy Administration and Pharmacy Practice in Healthcare Institutions-Part 4-8-1:Pharmacy Administration-Pharmacy Training Management-Clinical Pharmacist Training was based on the relevant requirements of the current clinical pharmacist training system of the Chinese Hospital Association,and formulated by sor-ting out relevant materials,such as standards,policies and regulations,technical specifications,literature,the current situation of clinical pharmacist training in China,and expert opinions.A total of 15 key elements of clinical pharmacist training were selected and divided into three aspects(base management,training process and assessment,and the quality management,evaluation and improvement).This article mainly introduced the construction method and content of the clinical pharmacist training standard,to deepen the understanding of the standard for relevant units and to promote the implementation of the standard.

Aim To investigate the effect and mechanism of angiotensin Ⅱ(Ang Ⅱ)on ferroptosis in white adi-pocytes.Methods The 3T3-L1 preadipocytes were differentiated into white adipocytes by inducer stimulation.The experiment was divided into control group,Ang Ⅱ group,Ang Ⅱ+Fer-1(ferroptosis inhibitor)group and Ang Ⅱ+PFT-α(p53 inhibitor)group.Ang Ⅱ was used to treat cells.RT-qPCR and Western blot were used to detect the expression levels of ferroptosis factors and adipokines.JC-1 kit was used to detect mitochondrial membrane potential(MMP)level.Iron ion kit was used to detect intracellular iron content.Glutathione(GSH)kit was used to detect GSH content.Fer-1 and Ang Ⅱ were added to treat cells to detect the the changes of ferroptosis level.The expression of p53 and spermidine/spermine N1-acetyltransferase 1(SAT1)protein was detected.Subsequently,PFT-α and Ang Ⅱ were added to co-treat cells to detect the changes of p53 and SAT1 protein expression,and to observe the effect of inhibiting p53 expression on the expression levels of ferroptosis factors and adipokines.Results 3T3-L1 cells were successfully differentiated into white adipocytes by stimulator-induced differentiation.Ang Ⅱ induced ferroptosis in white adipocytes.RT-qPCR results showed that compared with control group,the mRNA expression of anti-ferroptosis factor glutathione peroxidase 4(GPX4),solute carrier family 7 member 11(SLC7A11)and iron regulatory protein 1(IRP-1)was down-regulated in Ang Ⅱ group,and the mRNA expression of pro-ferroptosis factor acyl-CoA synthetase of long-chain family member 4(ACSL4)was up-regulated.Western blot results showed that compared with control group,the protein expression of SLC7A11 and GPX4 was down-regulated in Ang Ⅱ group,and the protein expression of ACSL4 was up-regulated.Ang Ⅱ treatment increased the content of intracellular iron ions and decreased the levels of GSH and MMP.Compared with Ang Ⅱ group,the mRNA expression of IRP-1 and SLC7A11 was up-regulated in Ang Ⅱ+Fer-1 group.Ang Ⅱ induced changes in the expression profile of adipokines in white adipocytes.Western blot results showed that compared with control group,the protein ex-pression of pro-inflammatory adipokine leptin(LEP),resistin(RETN),interleukin-6(IL-6)and tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)was up-regulated in Ang Ⅱ group,and the protein expression of anti-inflammatory adipokine adiponectin(AD-PN)and omentin 1(ITLN1)was down-regulated.In addition,Ang Ⅱ increased the protein expression of p53 and SAT1.Inhibition of p53 expression can improve the level of ferroptosis and adipokine expression in white adipocytes trea-ted with Ang Ⅱ.Western blot results showed that compared with Ang Ⅱ group,the protein expression of p53 and SAT1 was down-regulated in Ang Ⅱ+PFT-α group,the protein expression of SLC7A11 and GPX4 was up-regulated,and the protein expression of ACSL4 was down-regulated.The protein expression of ADPN was up-regulated in Ang Ⅱ+PFT-αgroup,and the protein expression of TNF-α,LEP and RETN was down-regulated.Conclusion Ang Ⅱ induces fer-roptosis in white adipocytes through activating the p53/SAT1 signaling pathway.

Objective To examine the changing prevalence and antimicrobial resistance profiles of Burkholderia cepacia in 52 hospitals across China from 2015 to 2021.Methods A total of 9 261 strains of B.cepacia were collected from 52 hospitals between January 1,2015 and December 31,2021.Antimicrobial susceptibility of the strains was tested using Kirby-Bauer method or automated antimicrobial susceptibility testing systems according to a unified protocol.The results were interpreted according to the breakpoints released in the Clinical & Laboratory Standards Institute(CLSI)guidelines(2023 edition).Results A total of 9 261 strains of B.cepacia were isolated from all age groups,especially elderly patients.The proportion was 11.1％(1 032 strains)in children,significantly lower than the proportion in adults.About half(46.5％,4 310/9 261)of the strains were isolated from patients at least 60 years old and 42.3％(3 919/9 261)of the strains were isolated from young adults.Most isolates(71.1％)were isolated from sputum and respiratory secretions,followed by urine(10.7％)and blood samples(8.1％).B.cepacia isolates were highly susceptible to the five antimicrobial agents recommended in the CLSI M100 document(33rd edition,2023).B.cepacia isolates showed relatively higher resistance rates to meropenem and levofloxacin.However,the resistance rates to ceftazidime,trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole,and minocycline remained below 8.1％.The percentage of B.cepacia strains resistant to levofloxacin was the highest compared to other antibiotics in any of the three age groups(from 12.4％in the patients＜18 years old to 20.6％in the patients aged 60 years or older).Conclusions B.cepacia is one of the clinically important non-fermenting gram-negative bacteria.Accurate and timely reporting of antimicrobial susceptibility test results and ongoing antimicrobial resistance surveillance are helpful for rational prescription of antimicrobial agents and proper prevention and control of nosocomial infections.
