AIM:To study the effect of nicotinamide mononucleotide(NMN)on renal fibrosis in mice with Al-port syndrome(AS)through TGFβ/Smad3 pathway.METHODS:SPF grade female X-linked AS(COL4A5 KI)mice were divided into model group(AS group)and model drug administration group(AS+NMN group).while female C57BL/6 mice served as the wild-type(WT)group,with 7 to 8 mice in each group.The mice in the administration group were given oral administration at 8 weeks of age for 8 weeks to 16 weeks of age.The remaining mice were given saline intragastric ad-ministration.The ratio of urinary microalbumin to urinary creatinine(UACR)was measured by biochemical method.After sampling,the renal fibrosis was analyzed by Masson staining.The expression levels of desmin and α-smooth muscle actin(α-SMA)were detected by immunohistochemistry.The expressions of fibrosis-related proteins desmin,α-SMA,trans-forming growth factor β(TGFβ),Smad3,p-Smad3,and fibronectin were detected by Western blot.RESULTS:Com-pared with the model group,UACR(13 weeks,P＜0.01;15 weeks,P＜0.01)and fibrosis-related protein expression(P＜0.05)in AS mice were significantly decreased after NMN treatment.CONCLUSION:Treatment with NMN attenuates renal fibrosis in AS mice through TGFβ/Smad3 signaling pathway.

Objective To investigate the relationship between serum trimethylamine oxide(TMAO),endo-thelial cell specific molecule 1(Endocan)and cardiac function and pregnancy outcome in patients with hyper-tensive disorders of pregnancy(HDP).Methods A total of 182 patients with HDP admitted to Handan Ma-ternal and Child Health Hospital from January 2021 to June 2023(HDP group)and 98 healthy pregnant women admitted to this hospital during the same period(control group)were selected as research subjects.Serum TMAO,Endocan and left ventricular cardiac function indexes[left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF),left ventricular end-diastolic volume(LVEDV)and left ventricular end-systolic volume(LVESV)]were compared between the two groups.According to pregnancy outcome,HDP patients were divided into poor outcome group(78 cases)and good outcome group(104 cases).Spearman correlation analysis was used to analyze the correlation between serum TMAO and Endocan and cardiac function indexes in HDP patients,and multi-factor Logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of adverse pregnancy outcomes in HDP patients.The predictive value of serum TMAO and Endocan for adverse pregnancy outcomes in HDP patients was analyzed by receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve.Results Compared with control group,serum TMAO,Endocan,LVEDV and LVESV were increased in HDP group,and LVEF was decreased(P＜0.05).Serum TMAO and Endocan in HDP patients were negatively correlated with LVEF(P＜0.05),and positively correlated with LVEDV and LVESV(P＜0.05).The incidence of adverse pregnancy outcomes in 182 HDP patients was 42.86％(78/182).Preeclampsia(PE),severe preeclampsia(SPE),24 h urine protein increase,LVEDV increase,LVESV increase,TMAO increase,Endocan increase were independent risk factors for adverse pregnancy outcomes in HDP patients,and LVEF increase was protective factor(P＜0.05).The area under the curve of serum TMAO combined with Endocan in predicting adverse pregnancy outcomes in HDP patients was 0.880,which was greater than 0.793 and 0.788 predicted by serum TMAO and Endocan a-lone.Conclusion The increase of serum TMAO and Endocan levels in HDP patients are relate to the decrease of cardiac function and adverse pregnancy outcomes,and the combined detection of the two has high predictive value for adverse pregnancy outcomes in HDP patients.

Objective To explore the relationship between serum pregnancy-specific protein 1(PSG1),stress-induced protein 2(Sestrin 2),growth arrest-specific protein 6(Gas6)and uterine artery blood flow pa-rameters and fetal growth restriction(FGR)in patients with gestational hypertension(GH).Methods A to-tal of 485 GH patients admitted to Handan Maternal and Child Health Hospital from January 2020 to October 2023 were selected as the research objects and divided into the occurrence group(81 cases)and the non-occur-rence group according to whether FGR occurred.The correlations between serum PSG1,Sestrin 2,Gas6 and uterine artery blood flow parameters[pulse index(PI),resistance index(RI),ratio of peak systolic velocity to end diastolic velocity(S/D)]was analysed,as well as the related influencing factors of FGR in GH patients.In addition,a Nomogram model based on the influencing factors was constructed to analyze the predictive value.Results The serum PSG1 level in occurrence group was significantly lower than that in non-occurrence group,and the serum Sestrin 2,Gas6 levels and PI,RI,S/D values were significantly higher than those in non-occurrence group(P＜0.05).Pearson correlation results showed that serum PSG1 was negatively correlated with the uterine artery blood flow parameters PI,RI,and S/D,and the levels of serum Sestrin 2 and Gas6 were positively correlated with the uterine artery blood flow parameters PI,RI,and S/D(P＜0.05).Gestational di-abetes mellitus,umbilical cord abnormalities,high Sestrin 2,high Gas6,high PI,high RI,and high S/D were independent risk factors for the occurrence of FGR in GH patients(P＜0.05),and increased PSG1 level was protective factor for the occurrence of FGR in GH patients(P＜0.05).Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve analysis showed that the area under the curve(AUC)of the Nomogram prediction model con-structed based on the influencing factors for predicting the occurrence of FGR in GH patients was 0.982,and the sensitivity and specificity were 0.943 and 0.938,respectively.The internal verification of the Bootstrap method shows that the Bias-corrected prediction curve basically coincides with the Ideal line,and the consis-tency index(C-index)was 0.964,indicating that the model was relatively stable.The decision curve shows that the threshold probability of this model was 0.01-1.00 and the net return rate was above 0.Conclusion Ser-um PSG1,Sestrin 2 and Gas6 in GH patients are closely related to uterine artery blood flow parameters and FGR,and the three are the influencing factors for the occurrence of FGR in GH patients.The constructed No-mogram model has a good predictive efficacy for FGR.

Objective:To investigate the curative effects of the ulnar artery perforator flap carrying 2 and more perforators of same source artery on reconstruction of defects in hand.Methods:A retrospective observational study was conducted on 13 patients with hand injuries combined with bone or tendon exposure and met the inclusion criteria of the study were admitted to the Department of Hand Surgery, Wuxi NO.9 People’s Hospital Affiliated to Soochow University between April 2022 and September 2023. The patients were 8 males and 5 females with a mean age of 45.7 (25-67) years. Seven hand injuries were caused by mechanical crushing, 2 by hot crushing and 4 by machine strangulation. After debridement, the sizes of defect were found at 5.4 cm×5.1 cm to 8.2 cm×7.5 cm. Dopplor ultrasound was applied to locate the perforators before surgery. Perforator flaps carrying cutaneous branches of ulnar artery proximal to the wrist were designed for reconstruction of the defects in hand. The flaps were 6.0 cm×5.5 cm-8.5 cm×8.0 cm in size. Donor sites were covered by the ulnar artery perforator flaps sized 5.3 cm×2.7 cm-8.2 cm×4.0 cm and carryied 2 and more perforators of the same source artery. During harvest of the flaps, the number and calibre of perforators carried by flap, the calibre of the main trunk of the superior carpal branch of the ulnar artery and the length of its pedicle were recorded. A total of 35 perforators with 0.35-0.95 mm in calibre carried by 13 perforator flaps of ulnar artery were successfully retained. Five of the 13 flaps carried the perforators with a calibre smaller than 0.50 mm. Overall, there were 7 flaps with 2 perforators per flap, 4 with 3 perforators per flap, 1 with 4 perforators and 1 with 5 perforators. The cutaneous branch of ulnar artery in a caliber of 0.75-1.35 mm and proximal to the wrist was dissected as the vascular pedicle with 30.0-45.0 mm in length. All patients were included in the schedueled postoperative at outpatient clinic to observe the appearance and sensation of the flaps, and the occurrence of complication.Results:All flaps survived and the wounds healed at first intention without vascular compromises, wound dehiscence or obvious swelling. All patients received 8 - 20 months of follow-up, with 15 months in average. Flaps presented good appearance and colour, with soft texture and without bloating. TPD of the first flap was 8-18 mm, with an average of 10.5 mm±0.5 mm and that of the second or relay flap was 7-15 mm, with an average of 9.5 mm±0.5 mm. According to British Medical Research Council (BMRC) system, the sensory evaluation of the recipient sites achieved S 4 in 5 flaps, S 3 in 9 flaps and S 2 in 12 flaps. Conclusion:The ulnar artery perforator flap with 2 and more perforators of the same source artery has sufficient and reliable blood supply and is effective in reconstruction of hand defects.

Objective:To construct a bedside handover management in surgical ward based on the intervention mapping theory and verify the practical effect, to provide a reference for further standardizing handover behavior and improving the efficiency of handover management.Methods:A quasi-experimental research method was adopted. From January 2022 to January 2023, nurses from the Department of Urology of Tongji Medical College Affiliated Union Hospital, Huazhong University of Science and Technology were selected by cluster sampling. From January to June 2022, routine bedside handover management was implemented. In July 2022, a one-month training on the bedside handover management in surgical ward based on the intervention mapping theory was conducted for urology nurses. From August 2022 to January 2023, the bedside handover management in surgical ward based on the intervention mapping theory was implemented. The incidence of handover problems among nurses, the evaluation of handover among nurses, the qualified rate of nurses' disease awareness, and the satisfaction of patients with handover were compared before and after the training.Results:A total of 48 nurses were included. They were the same batch of nurses before and after the training, including 2 males and 46 females, with an age of (32.23 ± 5.50) years. A total of 1 180 inpatients were included before the training, including 921 males and 259 females, with an age of (56.69 ± 17.24) years. After the training, 1 240 inpatients were included, including 946 males and 294 females, with an age of (55.50 ± 18.85) years. The incidence of handover problems among nurses after the training was 3.71% (46/1 240), which was lower than 9.92% (117/1 180) before the training, and the difference was statistically significant ( χ2=37.07, P<0.05). After the training, the total score of handover evaluation for nurses and the qualified rate of nurses' disease awareness were (80.08 ± 3.74) points and 91.67% (44/48) respectively, which were higher than (73.10 ± 3.53) points and 72.92% (35/48) before the training, and the differences were statistically significant ( t=-0.94, χ2=5.79, both P<0.05). The total score of satisfaction with bedside handover of patients after the training was (76.13 ± 4.50) points, which was higher than (67.92 ± 4.64) points before the training, and the difference was statistically significant ( t=-13.99, P<0.05). Conclusions:The bedside handover management plan based on the intervention mapping theory can effectively strengthen the quality of bedside handover, improve the satisfaction with bedside handover of patients, and deepen nursing quality.
