Objective:To evaluate the correlation between preoperative platelet function and in-hospital mortality in patients with acute Stanford A aortic dissection(ATAAD) undergoing emergency surgery.Methods:ATAAD emergency surgical patients who underwent preoperative thromboelastography(TEG) examination at three cardiovascular disease hospitals from January 2018 to December 2023 were consecutively selected in this study. The patients were divided into two groups according to whether the patient survived to discharge.Results:867 patients were included in this study. The in-hospital mortality was 11.2%(97 cases). Compared with the DG group(97 cases), the age, pericardial effusion volume, lactate concentration, and MA value of patients in the SG group(770 cases) were higher( P<0.001). Factors independently associated with in-hospital mortality were age(>60 years old), coronary hypoperfusion, pericardial effusion volume(>200.00 ml), and MA value(<60.6 mm). There was a correlation between MA value and in-hospital mortality( P=0.012), and the mediating effect between MA value and platelet count was not significant. Conclusion:There is a correlation between preoperative platelet function and in-hospital in ATAAD patients, and improving platelet function may be one of the important ways to improve the clinical prognosis of those patients.

Objective:To systematically integrate the work experience of medical and nursing staff in the remote home palliative care model, so as to provide a reference for improving remote home palliative care services.Methods:Qualitative studies on medical and nursing staff providing remote home palliative care were electronically searched in PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, ProQuest, CINAHL, PsycINFO, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wanfang Data, VIP, and China Biology Medicine disc. The search period was from database establishment to April 30, 2024. Literature quality evaluation was conducted using the Joanna Briggs Institute Center for Evidence-Based Health Care Quality Assessment Criteria for Qualitative Research. The aggregative integration method was used to synthesize the findings.Results:Researchers repeatedly read, analyzed, and interpreted the 17 included literature, extracting 56 themes and summarizing eight new categories, and further synthesized three integrated results, namely, remote home palliative care provided patients with comprehensive physical, psychological, and mental care, as well as guidance and support for family members; remote home care helped to achieve full coverage of palliative care services; equipment limitations, information security risks, and incomplete processes restricted the development of remote palliative care.Conclusions:Remote home palliative care has improved patient care and family support capabilities, expanded service coverage, and promoted interdisciplinary collaboration. However, there are still issues such as equipment limitations, information security risks, and incomplete processes. Optimizing processes, improving safety mechanisms, and strengthening collaboration platforms will contribute to sustainable development.

Objective To investigate the changes of mitochondrial unfolded protein response (mtUPR) in hippocampus of lithium-pilocarpine induced seizures and the effect of mitochondria-targeted antioxidant. Methods Lithium chloride and pilocarpine were used to elicit status epilepticus in rats, and the rats were further treated with mitochondria-targeted antioxidant Mito-TEMPO. Adult male Wistar rats were randomly divided into control group, PILO group, Mito-TEMPO group and PILO +Mito-TEMPO group. Nissl staining was used to observe the damage of hippocampal neurons, electron transmission microscopy was used to observe the ultrastructure of mitochondria, ROS production of mitochondria was detected by reactive oxygen species fluorescent probe (DCFDA), and mitochondrial membrane potential was detected by Rhoda.mine123 staining. The expressions of mitochondrial heat shock protein HSP60, protease LONP1 and mitochondrial protease CLpP were detected by Western blot. Results (1) Compared with CON group, the ultrastructure of hippocampal neuronal mitochondria in PILO group was seriously damaged, mitochondrial ROS production was increased, and mitochondrial membrane potential was decreased. (2) Compared with the CON group, the expressions of HSP60 , Lonp1 and CLpP in the PILO group were increased. (3) Compared with the PILO group, the damage of mitochondrial ultrastructure was alleviated in the PILO+Mito-TEMPO group, the production of mitochondrial ROS was significantly reduced, and the mitochondrial membrane potential was increased. (4) Compared with the PILO group, the expressions of HSP60, LONP1 and CLpP in the hippocampal neurons of the PILO+Mito-TEMPO group were decreased. Conclusion The mtUPR is significantly activated in hippocampal neurons in epilepsy, and Mito-TEMPO may play a protective role in hippocampal mitochondrial injury in epilepsy regulating mtUPR.

Objective:To observe the gene mutations and clinical phenotypes in patients with Usher syndrome type 2 (USH2) and retinitis pigmentosa (RP).Methods:From August 2018 to January 2019, 4 patients and 11 normal family members from 3 families of USH2 and RP who visited Henan Eye Hospital were enrolled in the study. Detailed medical history was obtained and visual acuity, fundus color photography, OCT, visual field, full field ERG examination were performed. Among the three families, pedigree 1 was diagnosed with USH2, pedigree 2 and pedigree 3 were diagnosed with RP. The peripheral venous blood of patients and their family members were collected, and the whole genomic DNA was extracted. Targeted capture next generation sequencing analysis was performed on these members, and Sanger sequencing and family cosegregation were verified.Results:In the family F1, the proband had symptoms of RP and sensorineural deafness. Sequencing revealed two heterozygous frameshift variants: c.13877-13880 del AGAC (p. Q4626P) in exon 64 and c.798 del T (p. F266L) in exon 5 of USH2A. Both patients of family 2 and 3 showed RP signs without deafness. Two heterozygous variants c.15178T> C (p. S5060 P) in exon 70 and c.6986C> A (p. P2329H) in exon 37, and a pathogenic heterozygous variant c.5836C> T (p. R1946X) in exon 29 of USH2A were identified in family F2. A heterozygous missense variant c.14951C> T (p. P4984L) in exon 68 and a variant c.11156G> A (p. R3719H) in exon 57 of USH2A were found in family F3. The results of conservation analysis showed that the corresponding amino acid sites of USH2A p.Q4626P, p.F266L, p.S5060P, p.P2329H and p.P4984L were highly conserved in many species. Among these 7 pathogenic variants detected, M1-M4 and M6 were novel.Conclusions:Mutation USH2A gene are the main cause of USH2 and non-syndromic RP. Different variants affect protein translation and synthesis, consequently causing different clinical phenotypes.

Objective To investigate the prevalence of nutritional risk and undernutrition of geriatric patients with hip fracture in the department of orthopaedics and analyze the relationship between nutritional risk scores and clinical outcomes.Methods In this prospective cohort study,the baseline demographic data of 235 elderly patients with hip fracture in the department of orthopaedics of Ningbo First Hospital were consecutively recorded from November 2013 to December 2015.The prevalence of nutritional risk and undernutrition,infectious complications,and length of hospital stay were also recorded.The infectious complications and length of hospital stay in patients in different age groups(60-69 years,70-79 years,and ≥80 years)and those with different nutritional risks(<3 points,3-4 points,and ≥5 points)were analyzed.Results All patients without PN EN support during hospitalized durations.The incidence of nutritional risk was 62.98％in 235 elderly patients with hip fracture,twenty patients were undernutritioned by multi-item standard based on Nutritional Risk Screening 2002 nutrition disorder score,and 15 patients were undernutritioned by one-item standard with body mass index.Hip arthroplasty patients had significantly higher nutritional risk than those who had undergone internal fixation(74.04％vs.54.20％,P=0.002).Patients with comorbidities had significantly higher nutritional risk than patients without comorbidities(71.56％vs.55.56％,P=0.011).There were significant differences in infectious complications(2.30％vs.3.91％vs.50.00％)and length of hospital stay[(6.35±0.87)d vs.(8.12±1.13)d vs.(10.85±1.52)d,(8.66±2.06)d vs.(10.45±2.43)d vs.(13.25 ±3.65)d] among patients with different nutritional risks(<3 points,3-4 points,and ≥5 points)(P=0.000).Conclusions Elderly patients with hip fracture has relatatively high nutritional risk.These patients tend to have more complications and longer hospital stay.

Objective:To evaluate the implementation effects of critical illness insurance of New Cooperative Medical System(NCMS) on the occurrence rate and economic burden of major disease expenditure.Methods:Based on the peasant household data of China Family Panel Studies(CFPS) in 2014.the two-part model was applied to analyze the changes in major disease occurrence and burden after the implement of insurance.Results:NCMS critical illness insurance did not reduce the occurrence of critical disease expenditure,but signally cut down the economic burden of serious illness peasants in central and eastern China.Conclusion:The implementation effect of NCMS critical illness insurance was well in central and eastern China,but was poor in western China;the prevention and health care system of NCMS should be built,while the implementation plans and compensation level of critical illness insurance should be improved in western region.
