Methods Extreme thrombocytosis of a patient treated with piperacillin sodium and tazobactam sodium injection was found by clinical pharmacists, who participated in clinical diagnosis and treatment by analyzing of the adverse drug reaction, optimization of the medical treatment and pharmaceutical care. Results After correlation analysis, the patient's extreme thrombocytosis was likely to be an adverse reaction caused by the piperacillin sodium and tazobactam sodium injection. The medication was immediately discontinued, and antiplatelet therapy with aspirin was administered. Two weeks later, the patient's platelet count had significantly decreased compared to before. Conclusion Clinical pharmacists participated in patients’ clinical diagnosis and treatment, carried out pharmaceutical care and assisted physicians in adjusting treatment plans, which ensured the safety and effectiveness of patients' clinical drug therapy.

Objective: To investigate the epidemiological characteristics of pertussis in Jiaxing City from 2004 to 2023 and spatio-temporal clustering characteristics from 2022 to 2023, so as to provide insights into formulation of pertussis control measures. Methods: Data of pertussis cases in Jiaxing City from 2004 to 2023 were collected through the Infectious Disease Report Information System of Chinese Disease Prevention and Control Information System. The epidemiological characteristics of pertussis cases in Jiaxing City from 2004 to 2023 were descriptively analyzed, and the spatio-temporal clustering characteristics from 2022 to 2023 were analyzed using spatio-temporal scanning. Results: A total of 478 pertussis cases were reported in Jiaxing City from 2004 to 2023, with an average annual reported incidence of 0.53/105. The reported incidence showed an upward trend from 2004 to 2023 (P<0.05), with the highest in 2022 (3.17/105). Higher incidence of pertussis was reported in June to August (149 cases, 31.17%) and November to December (112 cases, 23.43%). There was no statistically significant difference in the reported incidence between males and females (0.56/105 vs. 0.50/105, P>0.05). The cases aged under one year accounted for the highest proportion, with 199 cases (41.63%). Haining City (0.68/105), Jiashan County (0.64/105) and Tongxiang City (0.60/105) ranked the top three in the reported incidence of pertussis. Spatio-temporal scanning analysis showed that from 2022 to 2023, the primary clustering area of pertussis was centered in Daqiao Town of Nanhu District, covering 27 towns (streets) in Nanhu District, Jiashan County, Xiuzhou District and Pinghu City, and the clustering time was from November to December, 2023. Conclusions The reported incidence of pertussis was at a low level in Jiaxing City, but showed an upward trend from 2004 to 2023. The incidence of pertussis was higher among infants under one year of age, peaked in June to August and November to December, and was concentrated in Nanhu District and its surrounding areas.

Objective To compare the effect of cold therapy at different temperature on the pain and motor function of delayed onset muscle soreness(DOMS)in the upper limbs of young men.Methods From April to July,2024,24 healthy young men(aged 22 to 26 years)were selected from the Key Laboratory of Winter Sports Technical Diagnosis and Skill Evaluation of the General Administration of Sport of China at Shenyang Sport University,and randomly divided into control group,group A and group B equally.An isokinetic muscle strength testing system was used to establish a DOMS movement model for elbow joint.Then,group A re-ceived cold therapy at a constant temperature of 10℃for 10 minutes,group B received cold therapy at a con-stant temperature of 6℃for 10 minutes,and the control group received natural recovery.They were measured relative peak torque(rPT)of the elbow flexor muscles at angular velocities of 60°/s,120°/s and 180°/s with iso-kinetic muscle strength testing system,and root mean square(RMS)of EMG amplitude of biceps brachii was synchronously collected using a wireless surface EMG system,immediately,and 24,48 and 72 hours after model establishment;while,they were assessed with Visual Analogue Scale(VAS)for pain.Results The main effects of VAS score,rPT and RMS were significant in both intra-group(F>15.716,P<0.001)and inter-group(F>6.478,P<0.01).At 24,48 and 72 hours after model establishment,the VAS scores showed a trend of control group>group A>group B(P<0.05).Although the pairwise comparison results of rPT and RMS among the groups varied at different time points after model establishment under different angular veloci-ties,overall,rPT presented a trend of control groupgroup A>group B(P<0.05).The higher the angular velocity and the longer the time,the more obvious this trend was.Conclusions Cold therapy can relieve the pain of DOMS in the upper limbs of young men and promote the recovery of muscle strength,especially at a constant temperature of 6℃.

Objective:To conduct a comprehensive review on the current research status of postpartum follow-up for patients with hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP), and provide a basis and guidance for the management of postpartum follow-up for HDP patients.Methods:Guided by the methodological framework of the scoping review, the literatures on postpartum follow-up of HDP patients in Cochrane Library, PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, China Biomedical Literature Database, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, VIP and Wanfang databases were retrieved, and search for relevant literature by the snowballing method. The search time range is from the establishment of the database to February 1, 2025. The included literature was analyzed and summarized.Results:A total of 32 literatures were included, including 31 in English and 1 in Chinese. The participation rate of postpartum follow-up for HDP patients is generally low, and the disease has a significant impact on long-term health. In addition, there is considerable variation in the content, format and time of follow-up. The follow-up content includes the patient's physical health status, long-term health risks and the availability of medical resources, etc.Conclusions:There are still deficiencies in the current implementation of postpartum follow-up for HDP patients. Existing follow-up studies lack high-quality randomized controlled trials as evidence support, and the influencing factors are complex and diverse. In the future, it is necessary to strengthen cooperation among multiple disciplines, closely integrate clinical guidelines with practical needs, and systematically evaluate the effectiveness of follow-up in clinical practice to enhance the scientific and effectiveness of follow-up and provide better health management support for HDP patients.

Multidrug-resistant organisms(MDROs)have emerged as one of the major pathogens causing hospital-associated infections in intensive care unit(ICU).ICU nurses play a pivotal role in prevention and control of the MDROs infection,and the levels of their knowledge,attitudes and practices(KAP)towards the prevention and control of MDROs infections directly affect the implementation effect.The current status and influencing factors for the ICU nurses' KAP regarding prevention and control of MDROs infections as well as the evaluation tools were reviewed in the article,and it is suggested that the training of ICU nurses should be strengthened,the multi-disciplinary collaboration should be intensified,and a dedicated nurse post for prevention and control of infections should be set up so as to provide bases for the prevention and control practices of MDROs infections.

OBJECTIVE To explore the effect of the comprehensive unit-based safety program(CUSP)collaborative action strategy on reducing the incidence of catheter-associated urinary tract infection(CAUTI)in elderly patients.METHODS From Jun.to Nov.2024,the Seventh Medical Center of the PLA General Hospital implemented the CUSP collaborative action strategy for intervention.Comparisons were made between pre-intervention(from Dec.2023 to May 2024)and post-intervention(from Jun.to Nov.2024)regarding nurses' know ledge-attitude-practice(KAP)scores on CAUTI prevention,implementation rates of key nursing measures for elderly CAUTI prevention and CAUTI incidence rates among elderly patients.RESULTS The pre-intervention KAP score of nurses from geriatric de-partment on CAUTI prevention was(83.44±6.67),significantly lower than the post-intervention score(108.19±16.27)(P＜0.001).The implementation rates of 10 key nursing measures for elderly CAUTI prevention improved(P＜0.05).The incidence rate of CAUTI was 2.88‰(16/5 546)among 5 546 catheter days before the intervention,and the incidence rate of CAUTI was 0.73‰(4/5 496)among 5 496 catheter days after the intervention(P=0.008).CONCLUSIONS The CUSP collaborative action strategy effectively enhances the KAP levels of nurses from geriatric department on CAUTI prevention,improves the implementation rates of key nursing measures,and reduces CAUTI incidence rates among elderly patients.

Objective Compare the depression phenotypes of a breast cancer tumor-bearing mouse model constructed using two different method and a mouse model of breast cancer depression with clinical manifestations,as well as assess their suitability for basic research.Methods We constructed a tumor model with 4T1 breast cancer cells alone(4T1 group)and a tumor-depression composite model given chronic unpredictable mild(CUMS)(4T1+CUMS group).The experimental period was 42 d,and the body mass,tumor volume,and survival time of the mice were monitored throughout the whole process.Two depressive behavioral tests(of sucrose preference test,open field test,tail suspension test,and elevated plus maze)were performed on the 15th and 29th days,respectively.Hematoxylin-eosin(HE)staining was used to observe the pathological changes of hippocampal neurons in brain tissue sections.Results(1)Body mass:The body mass of the 4T1 group and 4T1+CUMS group began to decrease from 29 d,and the body mass of the 4T1+CUMS group was significantly lower than that of the 4T1 group and Control group at the end of the experiment(P<0.001).(2)Tumor volume:There was no significant difference in the growth rate of tumors between the two model groups throughout the experiment(P>0.05).(3)Survival time:The survival rates of the 4T1 group and 4T1+CUMS group were 100％and 60％,and the first death of mice in the 4T1+CUMS group was on the 36th day.(4)Behavior test of depression:There was no significant difference between the three groups in the first depressive behavior tests(P>0.05),and the two groups showed obvious depressive phenotypes in the second behavioral tests.The sucrose preference index and activity distance in the central area were significantly decreased in the two model groups(P<0.001),and the immobility time was significantly increased(P<0.001).(5)Pathological section of brain tissue:On pathological examination of brain tissue,we observed a reduced number of neuronal cells in the hippocampus of the 4T1 group and 4T1+CUMS group,their morphology was irregular,the arrangement between the cells was disordered and the gap was unclear,and some nucleoli were blurred.Conclusions Although the tumor-only method and the tumor with compound stress stimulation method can both be used to prepare breast cancer depression models,the tumor-only modeling method is simpler and the mortality rate after successful modeling is higher.The long window of time is convenient for subsequent drug administration and detection,and the causes of the depression phenotype are more in line with the clinical causes and manifestations.Therefore,the 4T1 model can provide a reference model for future animal experiments on breast cancer tumor-related depression.

AIM:This study aimed to utilize network pharmacology and an anxiety rat model to investigate the intervention targets and underlying mechanisms of Baixiangdan capsule(BXD)in the treatment of anxiety-like behavior.METHODS:We screened the action targets of BXD on the anxiety model using network pharmacology,followed by Gene Ontology(GO)enrichment and the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes(KEGG)pathway analysis of the identified targets.Additionally,we evaluated the effects of BXD on rat anxiety behaviors induced by foot shock,with measurement of serum level of c-Jun N-terminal kinase inhibitor(JIK),and the protein levels of c-Jun N-terminal kinase(JNK),phos-phorylated JNK(p-JNK)and JIK in the left hippocampus and hypothalamus.RESULTS:A total of 97 targets,including the dopamine D1/D3 receptors,were identified as intersection targets.GO enrichment analysis indicated that target pro-teins were significantly involved in molecular functions such as catecholamine binding,receptor activation,and signal transduction.KEGG pathway analysis revealed that neural receptor-ligand pathways,including dopaminergic synapses(15%)and neuroactive ligand-receptor interaction(18%),were notably represented.In behavioral experiments,BXD and diazepam treatments significantly reduced total path in the open-field test(P＜0.01),while the number of entries into the central region increased(P＜0.05).Additionally,the percentage of entry times of the open arm and the percentage of time spent in the open arm were also increased(P＜0.01).Furthermore,BXD treatment led to decreased ratio of p-JNK/JNK and increased level of JIK(P＜0.05).CONCLUSION:The traditional Chinese medicine BXD demonstrates a promising efficacy in alleviating anxiety-like behaviors in model rats.It operates through a multi-component,multi-target,and multi-pathway approach,primarily by modulating the JIK/JNK signaling pathway.

AIM:This study aims to investigate the protective effect of Buyang-Huanwu decoction(BYHWD)on cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury(CIRI)in rats,focusing on its role in regulating the autophagy of cerebral micro-vascular endothelial cells(BMECs).METHODS:(1)We established a rat model of middle cerebral artery occlusion/re-perfusion(MCAO/R)and divided the subjects into four groups:sham group,model(MCAO/R)group,BYHWD group,and 3-n-butylphthalide(NBP)group.Neurological deficits were assessed using the Zea Longa score,while the volume of cerebral infarction was measured through 2,3,5-triphenyltetrazolium chloride(TTC)staining.Pathological damage in the ischemic penumbra was evaluated using HE staining,and blood-brain barrier(BBB)permeability was assessed by Evans blue(EB)staining.The ultrastructure of BMECs was analyzed by transmission electron microscopy,and the co-expres-sion and positive cell rate of microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3(LC3)in BMECs were determined through im-munofluorescence double staining.Additionally,the protein expression levels of ZO-1,claudin-5 and occludin in the cor-tical region of the ischemic penumbra in rats were examined using Western blot analysis.(2)A rat BMEC model of oxy-gen-glucose deprivation/reoxygenation(OGD/R)was also established.Rat BMECs were categorized into normal control(CON),OGD/R,dimethyl sulfoxide(DMSO),rapamycin and 3-methyladenine groups to observe autophagy levels by monodansylcadaverine(MDC)staining.Furthermore,rat BMECs were divided into CON,OGD/R,BYHWD-containing serum(BHDS)and NBP groups.The cell autophagy was assessed by MDC staining and Western blot,while cell viability was measured by CCK-8 assay.RESULTS:(1)The rats in MCAO/R group exhibited significantly higher neurological scores(P＜0.01)and increased cerebral infarction volumes(P＜0.01)compared with sham group.Severe damage in the ischemic penumbra was observed,characterized by disordered tissue structure,widened intercellular spaces,and compro-mised cellular integrity.The EB dye permeability was notably elevated(P＜0.01),and BMECs showed structural destruc-tion,including damaged cell membranes,swollen Golgi apparatus,dilated endoplasmic reticulum vesicles,and damaged mitochondria.The ratio of LC3+CD31+/CD31+and the protein levels of ZO-1,claudin-5 and occludin were significantly el-evated(P＜0.01).In contrast,the rats in BYHWD and NBP groups demonstrated lower neurological scores(P＜0.01)and reduced cerebral infarction volumes(P＜0.01).Furthermore,EB permeability decreased(P＜0.01),BMEC morphol-ogy improved,and the protein expression levels of ZO-1,claudin-5 and occludin increased(P＜0.05).(2)Rat BMECs in OGD/R group had a significantly elevated autophagy level compared with CON group(P＜0.01),with increased expres-sion of LC3 and beclin-1 proteins and decreased level of P62 protein(P＜0.05).Notably,the cells in BHDS and NBP groups displayed decreased autophagy level compared with OGD/R group,with increased cell viability(P＜0.01),re-duced LC3 and beclin-1 protein expression,and increased P62 protein expression(P＜0.05).CONCLUSION:Buyang-Huanwu decoction alleviates cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury in rats by inhibiting the autophagy of cerebral microvas-cular endothelial cells.

Objective:To investigate the protective effect of exercise training on emotional and cognitive dysfunction in Alzheimer's disease(AD),as well as the involvement of NLRP3 mediated microglial pyroptosis.Method:Male 5xFAD mice at the age of 5 months were randomly divided into control and physical exer-cise,(PE)groups.Age-matched C57/BL6 mice were used as wild type(WT)group.The mice in the WT and the control groups were fed in a common cage,while the mice in the PE group were fed in a cage equipped with a running wheel,in which mice were freely to run.Open field test was used to detect the emo-tional function,the Morris water maze test was used to detect the spatial cognitive function,and immunofluo-rescence staining was used to detect the neuronal survival,Amyloid beta(Aβ)plaque deposition,the microgli-al activation,the aggregation of microglial lysosomes and the expression of GSDMD,which is related to py-roptosis.The expression of inflammatory cytokines、proinflammatory cytokines and GSDMD protein were detect-ed by Western Blots.Result:In open field test,when comparing with WT group,the time spent in the central area was significant-ly shortened in the control-5xFAD group,which was significantly extended in the PE-5xFAD group.During the Morris water maze training period,the latencies of mice in the WT and PE-5xFAD groups to the platform were gradually decreased,while there was no significant differences in the control-5xFAD group.During the probe trial test,the times crossing the platform in the control-5xFAD group was significantly reduced compared with that in the WT group,while which was significantly increased in the PE-5xFAD mice.The number of neurons in the PE-5xFAD group was significantly increased in cortex and hippocampus compared with those in the control-5xFAD group,while Aβ1-42 plaques were significantly decreased in the PE-5xFAD group.Com-pared with the WT group.In addition,the lysosomal associated membrane protein-1(Lamp1)was obviously de-tected around the Aβ plaques in the control-5xFAD group.However,physical exercise significantly reduced the expressions of Lamp1 and CtsB in the cortex and hippocampus of 5xFAD mice.In the control-5xFAD group,the proinflammatory cytokines were significantly increased in cortex and hippocampus when compared with the WT mice,while PE decreased the expression of proinflammatory cytokines and increased the expression of anti-inflammatory cytokine.When compared with the WT mice,the 5xFAD mice exhibited a significantly increased expression of GSDMD protein in cortex and hippocampus,while PE decreased the expression of GSDMD pro-tein.Moreover,GSDMD protein was co-localized with Iba-1-positive microglia.Conclusion:Physical exercise improves cognitive function in Alzheimer's disease by inhibiting NLRP3-mediat-ed microglial pyroptosis.
