AIM To compare the chemical constituents in traditional decoction and formula granule decoction of classical famous prescription Wendan Decoction.METHODS The HPLC fingerprints were established,after which the contents of adenosine,synephrine,liquiritin,naringin,hesperidin,6-gingerol and adenosine cyclophosphate were determined,cluster analysis,principal component analysis and multidimensional scaling analysis were adopted in the investigation of component differences,and the equivalent of formula granules was adjusted.RESULTS The similarities of HPLC fingerprints for 10 batches of traditional decoctions were higher than those of HPLC fingerprints for 9 batches of formula granule decoctions(P＜0.01).Adenosine,synephrine,liquiritin,hesperidin and cyclic adenosine monophosphate demonstrated higher contents in traditional decoctions than those in formula granule decoctions(P＜0.05),6-gingerol displayed lower content than that in the latter produced by manufacturers A,C(P＜0.05),which was higher than that in the latter produced by manufacturer B(P＜0.01).Various batches of traditional decoctions and formula granule decoctions could be obviously distinguished,adenosine,synephrine and hesperidin exhibited great influences on the classification of principal component analysis,and the quality of formula granule decoctions produced by manufacturer C was closer to that of traditional decoctions.After equivalent correction,the contents of various constituents in formula granule decoctions produced by manufacturers A,C showed no significant differences as compared with those in traditional decoction(P＞0.05).CONCLUSION The formula granules of Wendan Decoction from different manufacturers exist quality differences,so the preparation process and extraction process of this preparation should be optimized to improve quality,and equivalent ratio should be adjusted according to actual requirements to ensure its scientific and rational clinical application.

Objective To observe the clinical effect of pressing needle in preventing and reducing nausea and vomiting in patients after gynecological laparoscopic surgery.Methods A total of 199 patients undergoing gynecological laparoscopic surgery from May to Nov 2023 at Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital,Fudan University were randomly divided into research group(n=99)and control group(n=100).The observation group was given Tanzhong,zanzhu and Taichong pressing needles on the basis of the control group.The postoperative nausea and vomiting were observed in the two groups.Results There were significant differences in the incidence and duration of postoperative nausea,the incidence of postoperative vomiting between the two groups(P<0.05),but there was no significant difference in the duration of postoperative vomiting.The incidence of nausea and vomiting in the observation group was lower than that in the control group.Conclusion Pressing needle can effectively prevent the occurrence of nausea and vomiting after gynecological laparoscopic surgery,and reduce the degree of nausea and vomiting,and reduce the duration of nausea.

Objective To observe the clinical effect of abdominal full-thickness skin graft combined with adipose stem cells in repairing soft tissue defects after resection of facial benign tumors.Methods A total of 180 patients with soft tissue defects after resection of facial benign tumor in our hospital from January 2019 to June 2022 were selected,the study was designed by a double-blind method,and patients were divided into the observation group and the control group by a random number table method,with 90 cases in each group.Patients in the control group were repaired by abdominal full-thickness skin graft treatment,while these in the observation group were repaired by a combination of abdominal full-thickness skin graft and adipose stem cells.The scar status scores in the surgical area,clinical efficacy,incidence of complications and satisfaction of patients in the two groups were compared.Results Compared with preoperative results,the scores of color and thickness of scars,vascular distribution,and softness in face 6 months after surgery in both groups decreased,with statistically significant differences(P<0.05).Six months after surgery,the observation group had significantly lower scores on scar color and thickness,vascular distribution,and softness compared to the control group(P<0.05);there was no difference in the effective rate of the forehead,nose,eyelids,lips,or cheeks between the observation group and the control group(P>0.05);while the observation group had higher overall effective rate than the control group(P<0.05).There was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of complica-tions between the two groups(P>0.05).There was statistically significant difference in the distribution of the satisfaction of patients between the two groups(P<0.05),and the observation group showed significantly higher satisfaction of patients than the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion Abdominal full-thickness skin graft combined with adipose stem cells can improve facial scars in repairing soft tissue defects after resection of facial benign tumors,and enhance the repair effects and satisfaction of patients,with high safety.

Objective:To systematically investigate the association and regulatory mechanism between genetic variants in the binding region of pancreatic and duodenal homeobox 1 (PDX1) and pancreatic cancer susceptibility in the Chinese population.Methods:Chromatin immunoprecipitation sequencing (ChIP-seq) was performed using the human pancreatic cancer cell line BxPC-3 to identify and annotate genetic variants within the PDX1 binding region. A two-center case-control study was conducted, and logistic regression models were employed to analyze the association between PDX1-related variants and pancreatic cancer susceptibility. Functional experiments were performed to elucidate the molecular mechanisms of these genetic variants.Results:ChIP-seq analysis identified 1 608 PDX1 binding regions. SNPs within these regions were significantly enriched in susceptible areas of pancreatic cancer ( P<0.001). The common variant rs154659, located within the most significant PDX1 binding peak, was further investigated. The multivariate logistic regression model showed that compared with individuals with TT genotype, individuals with CC genotype had a reduced risk of pancreatic cancer by 29.2% ( OR=0.708, 95% CI: 0.589-0.850). Functional studies demonstrated that the rs154659[C] allele displayed higher relative luciferase activity than the rs154659[T] allele. Knockdown of PDX1 significantly attenuated the relative luciferase differences between the two alleles. Conclusion:Genetic variants in the PDX1 binding region are associated with pancreatic cancer risk. The rs154659 modulates pancreatic cancer susceptibility by specifically altering PDX1 binding activity.

Aim To investigate the protective effect of Shengmai Yin on myocardial ischemia/reperfusion in-jury(MI/RI)in vitro and in vivo and to unravel the underlying mechanism.Methods SD rats were divid-ed into the sham group,model group,and Shengmai Yin group(SM).Rat MI/RI model was established.Cardiac function,infarct area,pathological changes,cardiomyocyte apoptosis,macrophage infiltration,and serum cTnT and CK-MB levels were measured.The mRNA and protein expressions of Calpain-1 and Cal-pain-2 were assessed.The hypoxia/reoxygenation(H/R)model was constructed in H9c2 cells.The active ingredients of Shengmai Yin were screened using net-work pharmacology and verified by CCK-8.In the car-diomyocytes H/R model,Fluo-4 AM staining was used to detect the changes of Ca2+levels.Results Com-pared with model group,LVEF and LVFS of Shengmai Yin-treated rats increased,myocardial infarction area was reduced,while myocardial tissue injury was allevi-ated.Myocardial apoptosis rate and the number of macrophages were reduced.Similarly,cTnT and CK-MB levels decreased.In addition,the expression lev-els of Calpain-1 and Calpain-2 mRNA and protein de-creased in the SM treatment group.Under the H/R model,all the active ingredients of Shengmai decoction had protective effects on cardiomyocytes,and the treat-ment could reduce the level of Ca2+in cardiomyocytes.Conclusions Shengmai Yin has protective effects on MI/RI in rats.This effect may be related to the de-crease in Ca2+levels,as well as Calpain-1 and Calap-in-2 mRNA and protein expression.

Objective To investigate the distribution and antimicrobial resistance profiles of clinically isolated Haemophilus influenzae and Moraxella catarrhalis in hospitals across China from 2015 to 2021,and provide evidence for rational use of antimicrobial agents.Methods Data of H.influenzae and M.catarrhalis strains isolated from 2015 to 2021 in CHINET program were collected for analysis,and antimicrobial susceptibility testing was performed by disc diffusion method or automated systems according to the uniform protocol of CHINET.The results were interpreted according to the CLSI breakpoints in 2022.Beta-lactamases was detected by using nitrocefin disk.Results From 2015 to 2021,a total of 43 642 strains of Haemophilus species were isolated,accounting for 2.91％of the total clinical isolates and 4.07％of Gram-negative bacteria in CHINET program.Among the 40 437 strains of H.influenzae,66.89％were isolated from children and 33.11％were isolated from adults.More than 90％of the H.influenzae strains were isolated from respiratory tract specimens.The prevalence of β-lactamase was 53.79％in H.influenzae strains.The H.influenzae strains isolated from children showed higher resistance rate than the strains isolated from adults.Overall,779 strains of H.influenzae did not produce β-lactamase but were resistant to ampicillin(BLNAR).Beta-lactamase-producing strains showed significantly higher resistance rates to these antimicrobial agents than the β-lactamase-nonproducing strains.Of the 16 191 M.catarrhalis strains,80.06％were isolated from children and 19.94％isolated from adults.M.catarrhalis strains were mostly susceptible to both amoxicillin-clavulanic acid and cefuroxime,evidenced by resistance rate lower than 2.0％.Conclusions The emergence of antibiotic-resistant H.influenzae due to β-lactamase production poses a challenge for clinical anti-infective treatment.Therefore,it is very important to implement antibiotic resistance surveillance for H.influenzae and guide rational antibiotic use.All local clinical microbiology laboratories should actively improve antibiotic susceptibility testing and strengthen antibiotic resistance surveillance for H.influenzae.

Background and Aims:As a core data source in the development of medical informatization,the front page of inpatient medical records plays a crucial role in determining the usability of research data and the scientific quality of clinical decision-making.Given the relatively standardized diagnostic and treatment protocols for thyroid malignancies,this disease serves as a representative model for evaluating the data quality of medical record front sheets.This study aimed to systematically assess the accuracy of diagnostic and surgical procedure coding for thyroid malignancies on the medical record front page,identify existing problems,and explore strategies for improvement and the potential for future application in clinical research.Methods:A total of 3 361 patients who underwent initial surgical treatment and were pathologically confirmed with thyroid cancer at the Department of Thyroid Surgery,the First Affiliated Hospital of Kunming Medical University from January 2018 to December 2020 were retrospectively included.Postoperative pathology reports and surgical records were used as reference standards to evaluate the accuracy of primary and secondary diagnosis codes,as well as primary and secondary surgical procedure codes on the medical record front page.Results:The accuracy rate of primary diagnosis coding reached 98.8%.However,among 1 368 patients with cervical lymph node metastasis,only 31.2%had correctly recorded secondary diagnosis codes and metastatic sites,with an omission rate as high as 67.8%.The overall accuracy rate for primary surgical procedure coding was 90.4%,with thyroid lobectomy(TL)and total thyroidectomy(TT)coding accuracies of 85.5%and 96.0%,respectively.Among the coding errors,70.0%involved TL procedures being incorrectly coded as TT.Secondary surgical procedure codes—mainly for lymph node dissection—were highly inconsistent,with up to 14 different coding types,reflecting a lack of standardization and unified input criteria.Notably,the error rate for primary surgical coding in 2020 increased significantly compared with the previous two years,suggesting subjectivity and variability in manual data entry.Conclusion:This study highlights major accuracy deficiencies in surgical procedure coding for thyroid malignancies on the medical record front page,which may compromise the scientific validity of real-world data.Going forward,leveraging artificial intelligence technologies to support structured documentation and automated coding,alongside establishing a proactive quality control system through multidisciplinary collaboration,may significantly improve data accuracy.These efforts are essential for strengthening data foundations for precision treatment,performance evaluation,insurance payment,and clinical research on thyroid cancer.
