A micro gas chromatographic column with mesoporous surface micro column array prepared by anodization method was proposed.A porous support layer with a characteristic pore size of about 30 nm inside the chromatographic column was prepared in situ using anodization method,and a uniform alumina stationary phase was deposited on the mesoporous support layer using atom layer deposition(ALD)technique.The existence of a mesoporous support layer increased surface area of the chromatographic column,thereby increasing the total amount of stationary phase loading and enhancing column capacity,which facilitated chromatographic separation.The test results showed that the porous support layer significantly reduced the longitudinal molecular diffusion and mass transfer resistance of the micro gas chromatographic column,and significantly increased the number of theoretical plates(n-nonane increased by 290.2%).Furthermore,column efficiency of the chromatographic column was less affected by flow rate,which was conducive to rapid separation of heavy hydrocarbon mixtures.

Following the core outcome set standards for development(COS-STAD), this study aims to construct core outcome set(COS) for clinical research on traditional Chinese medicine(TCM) treatment of simple obesity. Firstly, a comprehensive review was conducted on the randomized controlled trial(RCT) and systematic review(SR) about TCM treatment of simple obesity that were published in Chinese and English databases to collect reported outcomes. Additional outcomes were obtained through semi-structured interviews with patients and open-ended questionnaire surveys for clinicians. All the collected outcomes were then merged and organized as an initial outcome pool, and then a preliminary list of outcomes was formed after discussion by the working group. Subsequently, two rounds of Delphi surveys were conducted with clinicians, methodology experts, and patients to score the importance of outcomes in the list. Finally, a consensus meeting was held to establish the COS for clinical research on TCM treatment of simple obesity. A total of 221 RCTs and 12 SRs were included, and after integration of supplementary outcomes, an initial outcome pool of 141 outcomes were formed. Following discussions in the steering advisory group meeting, a preliminary list of 33 outcomes was finalized, encompassing 9 domains. Through two rounds of Delphi surveys and a consensus meeting, the final COS for clinical research on TCM treatment of simple obesity was determined to include 8 outcomes: TCM symptom scores, body mass index(BMI), waist-hip ratio, waist circumference, visceral fat index, body fat rate, quality of life, and safety, which were classified into 4 domains: TCM-related outcomes, anthropometric measurements, quality of life, and safety. This study has preliminarily established a COS for clinical research on TCM treatment of simple obesity. It helps reduce the heterogeneity in the selection and reporting of outcomes in similar clinical studies, thereby improving the comparability of research results and the feasibility of meta-analysis and providing higher-level evidence support for clinical practice.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the clinical application of transurethral steam thermal ablation of the prostate as an ultra-minimally invasive treatment of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). METHODS: We treated 18 BPH patients by transurethral steam thermal ablation of the prostate in our hospital, and followed them up for 6－12 months after operation. We obtained the IPSS, maximum urinary flow rate (Qmax), IIEF-5 scores, Male Sexual Health Questionnaire-Ejaculatory Dysfunction-Short Form (MSHQ-EjD-SF) scores and quality of life (QOL) scores from the patients and compared them before and after surgery. RESULTS: Operations were successfully completed in all the cases, with no intraoperative complications, and all the patients were discharged on the second day after surgery. At the 6-month follow-up after surgery, the Qmax increased from (10.08 ± 2.06) ml/s before surgery to (7.51 ± 3.21) ml/s, the IPSS decreased from 23.72 ± 1.87 to 8.06 ± 1.39, and the QOL score decreased from 5.11 ± 0.58 before surgery to 1.28 ± 0.46. The differences in these indicators were statistically significant (P<0.05). And these is no significant difference in the MSHQ-EjD-SF and IIEF-5 score(P>0.05). CONCLUSION Transurethral steam thermal ablation of the prostate is a safe, effective and almost non-invasive surgical strategy for the treatment of BPH, with a good prospect of clinical application.

OBJECTIVE: To preliminarily investigate the effect of buccal acupuncture therapy on ameliorating postoperative pain and enhancing recovery quality among patients undergoing radical resection of gastrointestinal cancers. METHODS: Fifty-two participants were randomized at a 1:1 ratio to either the buccal acupuncture or the control group. The acupuncture protocol entailed targeting 5 predetermined acupoints [CA-2 (Upper jiao), CA-3 (Middle jiao), CA-4 (Lower jiao), CA-6 (back), and CA-7 (waist) and two adjustable acupoints [CA-1 (head) and CA-8 (sacrum)] on each side of the face. The outcomes included the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) scores for each day within 7 days postoperatively, 15-Item Quality of Recovery Scale (QoR-15) scores, analgesics consumption during and after surgery, incidences of postoperative nausea and vomiting, and perioperative levels of interleukin-6 and glucose. Adverse events related to acupuncture were recorded. RESULTS: Of the initial 52 participants, 46 completed the study and were included in the analysis. Findings indicated that the buccal acupuncture group experienced significantly reduced resting NRS scores in post-anesthesia care unit and throughout the postoperative phase (P=0.001 and P=0.003, respectively), along with enhanced QoR-15 scores on the 3rd postoperative day (P=0.008), compared to the control group. No notable differences were identified in the remaining indicators (P>0.05). CONCLUSION Buccal acupuncture therapy demonstrated significant effectiveness in reducing postoperative pain and improving recovery quality for patients undergoing radical resection of gastrointestinal cancers, presenting a viable intervention without associated adverse outcomes.

Objective To summarize the management challenges faced by multi-campus hospitals both domestically and internationally,to delineate the experiences in medical administration across multiple campuses,and to propose the"Zhong-zhong"multi-campus medical management pattern based on the practices of Sun Yat-sen University Cancer Center,aiming to pro-vide reference and evidence for domestic peers in the field.Methods This study uses the methods of literature research and case study analysis,and summarizes and condenses the experience of medical management in multi-campus and provides policy sug-gestions through key person interviews and expert consultation.Results SYSUCC carries out multi-campus medical management through six major measures,namely,the organizational system combining vertical and territorial management,the layout of disci-plinary clusters and specialties,multi-channel flow attraction measures,the dynamic adjustment of medical resources,the homog-enization of medical quality,and the high-effective information system.It achieves the high-quality development goals with differ-ential development of various specialties,improved resource utilization efficiency,homogeneous and incremental medical serv-ices,smooth operation of information system,and steady and orderly development of new techniques.Conclusion Domestic public specialized hospitals can achieve homogeneous management and high-quality development across multiple campuses through streamlined organizational structures to enhance management efficiency,optimizing the layout of specialized departments to pro-mote coordinated development,strict control of standards to ensure medical quality,using dynamic adjustments to guide orderly competition among specialized departments,and leveraging information systems to support homogeneous development across multi-ple campuses.

Following the reform of the professional title system for"Breaking Four One-sided Evaluation Criteria"—focu-sing on more than just papers,titles,academic qualifications,and awards-establishing a scientific,systematic,and comprehen-sive medical performance evaluation index system has become essential for developing medical talent teams and conducting profes-sional title assessments fundamentally.This study establishes a medical performance evaluation index system tailored for clinicians in various departments of a cancer hospital who are competing for senior professional titles.This system comprises six primary in-dicators and 18 secondary indicators,with results presented in a ranked format of medical performance.Additionally,we have al-so analyzed the corr-elation between clinicians'medical performance rankings and their professional title evaluation outcomes through practical application.The results indicate that clinicians with higher performance rankings have significantly higher suc-cess rates in evaluations(P＜0.05).This index system underscores clinical practice,enhances classification-based evaluations,and supports advanced information management and precision in hospital administration,thereby providing a solid foundation for strengthening the hospital's core competitiveness.

Chimeric antigen receptor(CAR)T cell therapy,one of the most promising tumor treatments,combines the targeted recognition of antigen and antibody with the killing effect of T cells.CAR-T has shown a strong therapeutic effect in lymphoid tumors and been applied in clinical practice.However,in the treatment of acute myeloid leukemia(AML),no effective and specific target like CD 19 in lymphoid tumors has been found.Therefore,the key research direction is to try multiple probabilities and use optimization strategies to enhance efficacy and reduce toxicity.This review introduces the latest research progress of AML targets in CAR-T therapy in recent years,analyzes the related problems that need to be solved at present,and summarizes the optimization construction strategies mentioned in the research.Hope it can provide reference for related research and clinical application of related product.

Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma(PPAR-γ)is a member of the ligand-activated nuclear tran-scription factor superfamily.Activated PPAR-γ is involved in the regulation of many central nervous system(CNS)events,and is involved in cholesterol metabolism by inducing or inhibi-ting a series of gene pathways,thereby inhibiting the deposition of β-amyloid protein(Aβ).It plays an important neuroprotec-tive role in Alzheimer's disease(AD),improves memory and cognition in AD,and is a potential target for AD.Drug develop-ment aimed at restoring cholesterol homeostasis may be a poten-tial strategy to counteract AD.By analyzing the distribution and structure of PPAR-γ,focusing on the biological correlation be-tween PPAR-γ-mediated cholesterol metabolism and AD,this paper describes the mechanism regulation of PPAR-γ on key proteins,genes and their corresponding molecules,providing a new reference for the treatment of AD.

Objective To investigate the patterns of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)syndrome differentiation and treatment for dengue fever by using R language data visualization technology,so as to provide reference for TCM syndrome differentiation and treatment of dengue fever.Methods The related literature of dengue fever treated by Chinese medicine was retrieved from CNKI,Wanfang Data,and VIP.R-Studio software was used to conduct descriptive statistical analysis of the TCM syndromes,treatment methods,prescriptions and Chinese medicine in the literature of dengue fever treated by oral use of Chinese medicine.Based on Apriori algorithm,association rule mining and cluster analysis were carried out to explore the TCM syndrome and treatment patters of dengue fever.Results A total of 176 prescriptions for effective cases were extracted,and the included literature involved 29 syndromes,73 TCM treatment methods,56 classical prescriptions and 35 self-formulated prescriptions,and 179 Chinese medicinals.The syndrome of comorbidity of defense phase and qi phase and the syndrome of blazing of both qi phase and nutrient phase were the high-frequency syndromes of dengue fever treated by oral use of Chinese medicine.The high-frequency treatment methods covered heat-clearing therapy,toxin-removing therapy,blood-cooling therapy and dampness-resolving therapy.Qingwen Baidu Decoction was the most frequently-used prescription.Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma,Forsythiae Fructus,Scutellariae Radix,Gypsum Fibrosum,and Lonicerae Japonicae Flos were the frequently-used Chinese medinals.There were three drug combinations containing Paeoniae Radix Rubra,Moutan Cortex,and Rehmanniae Radix,and their correlation of association rules was the highest.Bubali Cornu,Moutan Cortex,Paeoniae Radix Rubra,Rehmanniae Radix,Lonicerae Japonicae Flos,Forsythiae Fructus,Gypsum Fibrosum,Scutellariae Radix,Anemarrhenae Rhizoma,and Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma were the core Chinese medicinals for the treatment of dengue fever.Conclusion The TCM syndromes of dengue fever are predominated by the syndrome of comorbidity of defense phase and qi phase and the syndrome of blazing of both qi phase and nutrient phase.The treatment of dengue fever with TCM is based on the principle of clearing heat toxin from the qi phase,cooling the nutrient-blood excess heat,resolving pathogenic dampness,and nourishing qi and yin.The treatment focuses on clearing qi phase and blood phase,and the application of removing stasis in febrile diseases should be stressed,thus to block the progression of the disease in time.
