ObjectiveTo develop a community-family management model for older adults with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and to formulate detailed application specifications, and to fully leverage the initiative of communities and families under limited resource conditions, for achieving community-based early detection and early intervention for older adults with MCI. MethodsA systematic literature review was conducted to identify pertinent publications. Corpus-based research methodologies were employed to extract, refine, integrate and synthesize management elements, thereby establishing the specific content and service processes for each stage of the management model. Utilizing the 5W2H analytical framework, essential elements such as management stakeholders, target populations, content and methods for each stage were delineated. The model and its application guidelines were finalized through expert consultation and demonstration. ResultsAn expert evaluation of the management model yielded mean scores of 4.84, 4.32 and 4.84 for acceptability, feasibility and systematicity, respectively. By integrating the identified core elements with expert ratings and feedback, the final iteration of the community-family management model for older adults with MCI was formulated. This model comprised of five stages: screening and identification, comprehensive assessment, intervention planning, monitoring and referral pathways to ensure implementation, and enhanced support for communities, family members and caregivers. Additionally, it included 18 specific application guidelines. ConclusionThe proposed management model may theoretically help delay cognitive decline, improve cognitive function and potentially promote reversal from MCI to normal cognition. It may also enhance the awareness and coping capacity of older adults and their families, strengthen community healthcare professionals' ability to early identify and manage MCI.

Objective:To investigate lipid metabolism gene mutations and pathogenicity of hypertriglyceridemia acute pancreatitis (HTG-AP) patients.Methods:Clinical data of 495 HTG-AP patients admitted from June 2018 to June 2020 in the center for severe acute pancreatitis of Eastern Theater General Hospital were retrospectively analyzed. Whole-exome sequencing and mutation verification were performed by next-generation sequencing technology and Sanger sequencing. The pathogenicity of gene mutation was analyzed by population mutation ratio, pathogenicity prediction software, conservation scoring software, protein structure prediction, and in vitro experiments. Results:The mutation ratio of lipid metabolism-related genes, namely LPL, APOA5, LMF1, GPIHBP1, and APOC2, were 14.81%, 55.78%, 43.61%, 1.62%, and 0.61%, respectively. Among them, 44 heterozygous mutations in LPL gene were detected including 36 missense mutations, 5 nonsense mutations and 3 frameshift mutations, which were all rarely carried in single patient. Six HTG-AP patients carried the LPL gene heterozygous mutation c.835C>G (p.Leu279Val). The mean level of serum triglyceride at the onset of HTG-AP was 27.4 mmol/L. All of them had a history of recurrent HTG-AP, and most of them had severe acute pancreatitis. The serum LPL concentration and activity were lower than the normal level. The pathogenicity analysis results suggested that the LPL p.Leu279Val was a rare, highly possible pathogenic and highly conserved gene mutation. The in vitro results showed that the LPL p.Leu279Val could significantly reduce the synthesis and secretion ability of LPL as well as its enzymatic activity. Conclusions:The mutation ratio of lipid metabolism-related genes, including LPL, APOA5, LMF1, GPIHBP1, and APOC2, are relatively high in the HTG-AP patients. The LPL p.Leu279Val is a rare and highly possible pathogenic gene mutation, which may lead to recurrent episodes of HTG-AP.

Objective:To investigate the association between early reduction (within 3 days of admission) of serum triglyceride (TG) to 5.65 mmol/L and clinical outcomes in patients with acute pancreatitis extremely severe hypertriglyceridemia-induced (HTG-AP).Methods:The clinical data were derived from the PERFORM database, which prospectively collected clinical information on 613 HTG-AP patients admitted to 38 medical centers across China between November 2020 and June 2023 with serum TG level ≥11.3 mmol/L at admission. This study further screened extremely severe HTG patients with TG≥22.6 mmol/L. Patients were divided into the target-reaching group (TG≤5.65 mmol/L on day 3 after admission) and non-target-reaching group (TG>5.65 mmol/L on day3 after admission). The effect of early reduction of serum triglyceride to standard level on organ failure was observed. The primary outcome was organ failure-free days (OFFD) to 14 days of admission. Secondary outcomes included the presence of organ failure on day 7 and day 14, persistent organ failure (POF) to day 14, new-onset organ failure to day 14, maximum sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) score to day 14, incidence of infected pancreatic necrosis (IPN) by day 60 of admission, length of ICU and hospital stay, mortality by day 60 of admission. The linear regression model was used for multivariate analysis. The subgroup forest plot was drawn to assess the effect of early reduction of TG on OFFD in different subgroups. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to plot the cumulative recurrence rate curve for the time to organ failure resolution and Log-Rank test was used for comparison between two groups.Results:Overall, 212 patients with HTG-AP were enrolled, with 118 in the target-reaching group and 94 in the non-target-reaching group. There was no significantly statistical difference on baseline TG level between two groups, but patients in non-target-reaching group had higher total cholesterol, LDL and CRP than those in target-reaching group. The median OFFD with 14 days of admission in target-reaching and non-target-reaching group was 14.0(11.0, 14.0) and 14.0(13.0, 14.0) days, respectively, without significant difference ( P=0.279). Moreover, there was no significant difference on the presence of organ failure on day 7 and day 14, POF to day 14, new-onset organ failure to day 14, maximum SOFA score to day 14, incidence of IPN by day 60 of admission, length of ICU and hospital stay, mortality by day 60 of admission between two groups. Results of multivariate analysis revealed that there was no significant difference on OFFD between two groups. Subgroup analyses were performed according to age, body mass index, baseline acute physiology and chronic health evaluation-Ⅱ (APACHE-Ⅱ) score, and whether there was organ failure at baseline. However, no association of early reduction of TG with OFFD to day 14 was shown in any subgroup. Among the 67 patients with organ failure at baseline, there was no significant difference in the time to organ failure resolution between target-reaching group and non-target-reaching group ( HR=1.256, 95% CI 0.746-2.116; P=0.343). Conclusions:For patients with acute pancreatitis complicated with extremely severe HTG (TG≥22.6 mmol/L), rapid TG decline (TG≤5.65 mmol/L on day 3 after admission) is not associated with reduced incidence and shorter duration of organ failure.
