Schizophrenia is a chronic and debilitating mental disorder.Around 20%to 40%of patients do not respond well to normal antipsychotic medication,and are ultimately diagnosed with treatment-resistant schizophrenia(TRS),representing the most severe and challenging form of schizophrenia.Currently,clozapine is the standard treatment for TRS.Early identification and standardized treatment can be beneficial to patients with TRS by controlling acute-phase symptoms as soon as possible,reducing suicidal rate and improving their quality of life.Under the guidance of the Steering Committee,this consensus was formed after multiple discussions by 30 psychiatric experts and anonymous Delphi surveys including 17 consensus opinions on treatment-resistant schizophrenia,which cover risk factors and prevention,diagnosis and evaluation,standardized clozapine treatment and management of adverse reactions,treatment regimens for clozapine resistance and intolerance,and psychosocial intervention,etc.The consensus-making process also incorporated evidence-based medicine to help standardize and guide diagnosis and treatment for adults with TRS in China.

Objective:To investigate the difference in efficacy of thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) for high-risk uncomplicated Stanford B aortic dissection in acute versus subacute phase.Methods:The clinical and follow-up data of of 126 patients with high-risk, uncomplicated Stanford B aortic dissection treated with TEVAR at the Affiliated Hospital of Chengde Medical College from Jan 2014 to Oct 2020 were retrospectively analyzed.Results:One hundred and twenty-six patients were divided according to the time from onset to surgery into an acute phase group ( n=65, 1-14 days) and a subacute phase group ( n=61, 15-90 days). The average hospital stay of patients in the subacute phase group was significantly shorter than that of patients in the acute phase group ( P<0.05). One year post-operatively, abdominal aortic false lumen thrombosis in patients of the acute phase group was better than that in the subacute phase group ( P<0.05). The in hospital overall incidence of adverse events (total complications+death) was lower in the subacute phase group than in the acute phase group ( P<0.05). The difference in the long-term overall incidence of adverse events between the two groups was not statistically significant ( P>0.05). Conclusions:The TEVAR procedure for high-risk, uncomplicated Stanford B aortic dissection performed during the subacute phase had a lower postoperative in hospital incidence of adverse events.

The defocus curve, which quantifies visual performance under various defocus states to accurately evaluate the eye's ability to achieve clear vision across a continuous range of distances, is a vital tool for assessing visual quality. With the aging population and improved quality of life driving a significant increase in the demand for presbyopia correction, the application of the defocus curve has continually expanded in ophthalmic clinical practice, particularly in the perioperative period of presbyopia-correcting corneal refractive surgery and refractive cataract surgery, where it aids in personalized surgical planning and proves valuable for patient education and postoperative visual quality assessment. This article systematically reviews the examination methodology, influencing factors, analytical approaches, and recent clinical advancements of defocus curves, focusing on the potential impact of variables such as pupil diameter, contrast sensitivity, and chart selection on results; it further discusses current limitations including lack of standardization and insufficient assessment of dynamic visual performance, and proposes future research directions based on the latest literature. The aim is to provide valuable insights for researchers and clinicians, promote the standardized and normative application of defocus curves, and ultimately enhance the overall efficacy of presbyopia correction and patients' quality of visual life.

Abstract: To explore the relationship between the replication-associated bromodomain protein 4 ( BRD4)and human papillomavirus (HPV) 16(HPV16) viral load in cervical squamous cell carcinoma and CIN Ⅰ tissues , confirm the effects of BRD4 degradation agent MZ1 on viral load . Methods : Thirty HPV16-positive cervi- cal cancer specimens and 30 non-cervical cancer specimens were collected , and the viral load of the samples was detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR , and the expression of BRD4 was analyzed by immunohisto- chemistry and Western blot. Results : The viral load was higher in the samples of cervical cancer group than in the samples of non-cancer group , the difference is statistically significant ( P < 0. 01) . Immunohistochemistry results showed that the expression of BRD4 were significantly higher in cervical cancer specimens than in noncancerous specimens , the difference is statistically significant (P < 0. 05) . BRD4 expression was significantly and positively correlated with high viral loads , the difference is statistically significant (P < 0. 001) . the BRD4 degradation agent MZ1 significantly reduced the viral load , the difference is statistically significant (P < 0. 01) . Conclusion BRD4 may be involved in the replication of HPV16 virus , and BRD4 degradation agent MZ1 can inhibit the replication of HPV16 virus .

OBJECTIVE To investigate the effectiveness of different bacterial cleaning methods and their effects on the general condition,nasal mucosal and systemic inflammation of mice.METHODS A total of 44 mice were randomly divided into six groups:4-antibiotic per os group(4ABX po)with 7 mice,5-antibiotic oral gavage group(5ABX og)with 8 mice,5-antibiotic intranasal group(5ABX in)with 8 mice,and each of their control groups with 7 mice.Body weight,water intake,and peripheral blood routine test of mice were measured.Bacterial culture of nasal lavage fluid(NLF)was performed;mRNA level of inflammatory mediators and histopathological analysis were conducted with mouse nasal mucosa.RESULTS Bacteria were cultured from all control groups,while Bacteria were cultured from all control groups,while one mouse in the 4ABX po group,three mice in the 5ABX og group,and two mice in the 5ABX in group showed no bacterial growth.The number of goblet cells in the nasal mucosa significantly increased in the 5ABX og group compared with its control group(P<0.05).The 5ABX in group exhibited significantly higher counts of peripheral blood lymphocytes and hemoglobin levels,as well as greater nasal mucosal thickness compared with its control group,with a notable decrease in goblet cells(P<0.05).No statistical differences were observed in body weight or the mRNA expression of nasal mucosal inflammatory mediators.CONCLUSION Different combinations of antibiotics and administration routes have varying effects on nasal bacteria,systemic and nasal mucosal inflammation in mice.Therefore,choosing appropriate protocols is crucial for the progression of subsequent research.

Psoriasis, a chronic, immune-mediated inflammatory disease characterized by hyperproliferation of keratinocytes, is difficult to cure and prone to relapse, often leading to systemic damage. Triptolide (TPL) can modulate cutaneous immune responses and inflammation, yet its therapeutic window is narrow with significant toxicity. To enhance skin targeting and retention of TPL while reducing systemic absorption and toxicity, a TPL/hyaluronic acid/phospholipid polymeric micelle (TPL/HA-DOPE) was constructed via HA's targeting of the CD44 receptor on skin cells. The prepared TPL/HA-DOPE exhibited a uniform spherical morphology with particle size of (130.4±1.23) nm, drug loading capacity of (19.74±0.084) %, and encapsulation efficiency of (85.53±1.34) %. Transdermal permeation studies in vitro and in vivo demonstrated that TPL/HA-DOPE not only enhanced uptake in HaCaT cells but also exhibited excellent skin retention. In a murine model of psoriasis, the TPL/HA-DOPE gel at the dose of 50 μg/(kg•d) showed the most significant improvement in erythema, scaling, and epidermal thickening. Histological analysis confirmed that TPL/HA-DOPE markedly reduced stratum corneum thickness, epidermal hyperplasia, and inflammatory cell infiltration. Ki67 immunostaining proved that its anti-inflammatory mechanism might be achieved by reducing the number of Ki67-positive cells and lowering the levels of inflammatory factors IL-6 and TNF-α. The above results demonstrate that HA-DOPE as a drug delivery carrier for the treatment of psoriasis-like skin diseases has high value of scientific research and good prospects for clinical application.
