Objective To explore the level of energy balance related protein antibody,adropin,and its correlation with collateral circulation status in elderly patients with AMI.Methods A total of 193 elderly AMI patients admitted to our department from February 2022 to February 2024 were enrolled,and based on their collateral circulation status,they were divided into a good circulation group(121 cases)and a poor circulation group(72 cases).The level of adropin was determined.Multivariate logistic regression analysis was employed to determine the influencing factors of poor collateral circulation in elderly AMI patients.Results The poor circulation group had significantly larger proportion of hypertension,higher fasting blood glucose(FBG),and larger red blood cell distribution width(RDW),but lower adropin level and mean platelet volume(MPV)when com-pared with the good circulation group(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).Multivariate logistic regression analy-sis showed that adropin,FBG,RDW,MPV,and hypertension were all influencing factors for poor collateral circulation in elderly AMI patients(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).The AUC value of adropin,FBG,RDW,MPV,and hypertension was 0.810,0.762,0.761,0.715 and 0.563,respectively in pre-dicting poor collateral circulation.Among them,adropin level had the highest predictive value(P＜0.01).Conclusion The decrease in adropin level in elderly AMI patients is closely associated with poor collateral circulation,and it is a predictive factor for collateral circulation.

Objective To investigate the correlation between serum levels of long non-coding RNA(Ln-cRNA)-prostate androgen regulated transcript 1(PART1),LncRNA-nucleolar ribonucleic acid host gene 14(SNHG14)and disease stage,cognitive impairment and motor function in patients with Parkinson's disease(PD).Methods A total of 100 PD patients(PD group)who admitted to the Department of Neurology in the hospital from January 2021 to December 2023 and 100 healthy subjects(control group)who underwent the physical examination during the same period of time were selected.According to Hoehn-Yahr staging,PD pa-tients were divided into early stage group(grade 1.0-2.5,20 cases),middle stage group(grade 3.0,48 ca-ses)and late stage group(grade 4.0-5.0,32 cases).According to the Montreal Cognitive Assessment(Mo-CA)score,the patients were divided into normal cognitive group(MoCA score≥26 points,33 cases),PD-mild cognitive impairment group(MoCA score 21-＜26 points,46 cases)and PD dementia group(MoCA score＜21 points,21 cases).According to the Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale(UPDRS)-Ⅲ score,the pa-tients were divided into mild dyskinesia group(0-15 points,29 cases),moderate dyskinesia group(＞15-40 points,46 cases)and severe dyskinesia group(＞40-56 points,25 cases).Real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR was used to detect serum LncRNA-PART1 and LncRNA-SNHG14 levels.Spearman method was used to analyze the correlation between serum LncRNA-PART1,LncRNA-SNHG14 levels and Hoehn-Yahr staging,MoCA score and UPDRS-Ⅲ score in PD patients.Results The level of serum LncRNA-PART1 in PD group was lower than that in control group(P＜0.05),and the level of LncRNA-SNHG14 was higher than that in control group(P＜0.05).The serum levels of LncRNA-PART1 in the middle stage group and late stage groups were lower than those in the early stage group(P＜0.05),and the levels of LncRNA-SNHG14 were higher than those in the early stage group(P＜0.05).In addition,the serum level of LncRNA-PART1 in the late stage group was lower than that in the middle stage group(P＜0.05),and the level of LncRNA-SNHG14 was higher than that in the middle stage group(P＜0.05).The serum LncRNA-PART1 levels in the PD-mild cognitive impairment group and PD dementia group were lower than those in the normal cognitive group(P＜0.05),while the LncRNA-SNHG14 levels were higher than those in the normal cognitive group(P＜0.05).Additionally,the serum LncRNA-PART1 level in the PD dementia group was lower than that in the PD-mild cognitive impairment(P＜0.05),while the LncRNA-SNHG14 level was higher than that in the PD-mild cog-nitive impairment group(P＜0.05).The serum levels of LncRNA-PART1 in the moderate dyskinesia group and severe dyskinesia group were lower than those in the mild dyskinesia group(P＜0.05),and the levels ofLncRNA-SNHG14 were higher than that in the mild dyskinesia group(P＜0.05).In addition,the serum level of LncRNA-PART1 in the severe dyskinesia group was lower than that in the moderate dyskinesia group(P＜0.05),and the level of LncRNA-SNHG14 was higher than that in the moderate dyskinesia group(P＜0.05).Spearman method results showed that serum LncRNA-PART1 level was negatively correlated with Hoehn-Yahr staging and UPDRS-Ⅲ score in PD patients,and positively correlated with MoCA score(P＜0.05).The level of serum LncRNA-SNHG14 was positively correlated with Hoehn-Yahr staging and UPDRS-Ⅲ score in PD patients,and negatively correlated with MoCA score(P＜0.05).Conclusion The level of ser-um LncRNA-PART1 in PD patients is decreased,and the level of LncRNA-SNHG14 is increased,both of them are related to the disease stage,cognitive impairment and motor function of PD patients,which may be-come evaluation indicators for PD progression.

A 51-year-old female patient was admitted to the hospital due to abdominal pain, vomiting, and fever lasting for one day. The clinical diagnosis was acute pelvic inflammatory disease and adenomyosis. Empirical treatment with cefoperazone/sulbactam sodium was given. Six days later, the blood culture reported Campylobacter jejuni ( C. jejuni), and nine days later, the patient was discharged with negative blood culture. The strain was identified as C. jejuni by morphology and matrix-assisted laser de-sorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS). Whole-genome sequencing predicted that the multi-locus sequence type was ST7268 (ST464 complex), which was a new invasive clone of foodborne C. jejuni with typical molecular characteristics of high vitality, high virulence and high resistance.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the prevalence of plasma vitamin B1 deficiency in patients with sepsis and analyze the relationship between plasma vitamin B1 levels and lactic acidosis.METHODS A total of 40 patients with sepsis and 42 patients with sepsis shock admitted to the intensive care unit(ICU)of General Hospital of Ningxia Medical University from Nov.2020 to Nov.2022 were selected as the study objects.Volunteers matched by age,gender and body mass index(BMI)were selected as the healthy group.Data on gender,age,BMI,under-lying diseases,sequential organ failure assessment(SOFA)score,acute physiology and chronic health evaluation(APACHE)Ⅱ score,infection site,duration of mechanical ventilation and ICU length of stay were collected.La-boratory tests including blood routine,electrolytes,blood lactate(Lac),alanine aminotransferase(ALT),aspar-tate aminotransferase(AST),blood urea nitrogen(BUN)and serum creatinine(Scr)were performed in both groups.Plasma samples from both disease group and the healthy group were collected.High-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry(HPLC-MS/MS)was used to measure plasma thiamine(vitamin B1)levels in the disease group on the first,third and fifth days,respectively,as well as in the healthy group.RESULTS On the first day of admission,both the sepsis group and the septic shock group exhibited vitamin B1 de-ficiency.Specifically,6 cases of vitamin B1 deficiency were observed in the patients with sepsis,while 8 cases of vitamin B1 deficiency were noted in the patients with septic shock(P=0.640).By the third and fifth days,the proportions of vitamin B1 deficiency in the sepsis group were 22.50％and 42.50％,respectively,whereas in the septic shock group,these proportions were high at 26.19％and 54.76％,with a statistically significant difference(P＜0.05).On the fifth day,in the normal liver function group,vitamin B1 levels showed a negative correlation with lactate(r=-0.590,P=0.005),whereas in the abnormal liver function group,vitamin B1 levels were pos-itively correlated with lactate(r=0.678,P=0.017).The patients in the septic shock group had low K+and ALB levels[(2.60±0.42)mmol/L and(24.56±5.78)g/L,respectively]compared to those in the sepsis group(P＜0.05).CONCLUSIONS Plasma vitamin B1 deficiency is prevalent among patients with sepsis.Changes in plasma vitamin B1 levels are closely associated with blood lactate levels in these patients.

Objective:To summarise and analyse the experience in the diagnosis and management of abdominal aortic endograft infection in recent years.Methods:Retrospectively summarised and analysed the general data, clinical presentation, laboratory and imaging findings, causative organisms and treatment choices of 14 patients with abdominal aortic endograft infection treated in Beijing Friendship Hospital, Capital Medical University, from January 2018 to June 2024, and analysed the prognosis of the patients and the risk factors associated with prognosis.Results:Positive bacterial cultures were 10 out of 14 patients. One non-operatively treated patient died of infectious toxic shock. Thirteen surgically treated patients underwent axillary-bifemoral artery bypass, removal of the infected stent, and closure of the aortic stump. Four of the 13 cases had combined aortoenteric fistula, 3 cases underwent one-stage enterocutaneous fistula repair, 1 case only fistula drainage, 3 cases of gastrojejunal anastomosis, all of them underwent gastric or jejunal nutrient tube implantation. Two of the 13 patients had combined the infection foci spread to the renal artery openings. To save the kidney, intraoperative left kidney autologous renal transplantation was performed in 1 case, and autologous saphenous vein reconstruction from celiac trunk artery-left renal artery and superior mesenteric artery-right renal artery was performed in the other case. All 14 patients were retrospectively summarised and followed up in August 2024, with 5 deaths in the early postoperative period (< 3 months), 3 deaths in the mid- to long-term period (≥3 months), and 5 survivors, with a median follow-up time of 2 years (1-5 years) for surviving patients. Among the 13 operated patients, 4 cases were combined with aortoenteric fistula, and 3 cases died in the early postoperative period; 4 cases of abdominal aortic infection foci involving renal artery openings, 2 cases of early postoperative death; 4 cases with pleural effusion, 4 cases died in the early postoperative period; 2 cases of combined creatinine elevation, 2 cases of early postoperative death; 2 cases of postoperative infection of artificial blood vessels.Conclusions:Abdominal aortic endograft infection are aggressive. The risk of early death is increased in patients who are elderly, in poor general condition, with aortoenteric fistula or with pre-existing cardiac, pulmonary, hepatic and renal insufficiency, but surgery based on adequate anti-infective therapy remains an effective means of saving the patient′s life.

AIM:To analyze the Pharmaceutical Care Network Europe(PCNE)classification system used for evaluating the drug related problems(DRPs)of tacrolimus concentration fluctuations in kidney transplant recipients.METHODS:Kidney transplant recipients were selected as the study subjects,who experienced fluctuations in tacrolim-us blood concentrations and clinical pharmacist in-tervention during outpatient follow-up.PCNE(9.0)classification system was used to evaluate the DRPs of tacrolimus.And the DRP problems,causes,inter-vention plans,acceptance and status were ana-lyzed.RESULTS:A total of 700 kidney transplant re-cipients were enrolled from July 2019 to December 2021,and 1014 DRPs were found.The problems of DRPs included the occurrence of adverse drug events(P2.1,60.16％)and poor treatment out-comes(P1.2,39.84％);The main reasons included dosage selection(C3,43％),others(C9,38.4％),and drug selection(C1,9.41％);Clinical pharmacists ac-tively intervened at the recipient level(I2,98.92％)and drug level(I3,1.08％);The acceptance rate of the intervention plan(A1.1+A1.3)reached 98.62％,and the complete implementation rate(A1.1)reached 72.09％;79.29％of DPRs were fully or par-tially resolved(O1.1 and O2.1).CONCLUSION:Clini-cal pharmacists can use PCNE to evaluate tacrolim-us therapeutic drug monitoring(TDM)related DRPs,help standardize TDM pharmaceutical ser-vice models,standardize TDM abnormal result in-terpretation and intervention workflows,and pro-mote safe and rational drug utilization.

AIM:In this study,bioinformatics tech-nology was used to explore the differentially ex-pressed genes in antibody-mediated rejection after renal transplantation,and to screen out the possi-ble mechanisms and potential therapeutic targets of AMR-related miRNAs after renal transplantation,in order to provide new idea for the targeted thera-py of AMR after transplantation.METHODS:The dataset GSE115816 was downloaded from the GEO database,and the differential expression of miR-NAs in stable renal transplantation(SGF)group and the antibody-mediated rejection(AMR)group after renal transplantation was analyzed online by using DESeq 2R software.TargetScan software predicted the related targets of miRNAs,and the differential-ly expressed genes(DEGs)were analyzed through through gene ontology(GO)enrichment analysis and Kyoto gene and genome encyclopedia(KEGG)enrichment analysis,then key genes were screened by String database and Cytoscape,and finally veri-fied by TargetScan online analysis.RESULTS:A total of 10 differentially expressed miRNAs were identi-fied in the AMR group by comparison with the SGF group,with the most significant difference in ex-pression of miR-144-5p.A total of 143 miR-144-5p related targets were predicted by Targetscan soft-ware.GO analysis showed that DEGs were mainly involved in angiogenesis,synaptic signaling,and transcriptional co-activator regulation.KEGG analy-sis showed that DEGs were mainly enriched in the thyroid hormone signaling pathway,human papillo-mavirus infection,and PI3K-AKT signaling pathway.The 10 Hug genes were screened by PPI network.Based on the 6 algorithms in cytoHubba,5 key genes were obtained by taking the intersection of the top 10 Hug genes of each algorithm,which were NCOA2,NCOA1,FOXO1,PAX3,and PPARGC1A.After the literature review,we found that FoxO1 plays an essential role in immune sys-tem diseases and kidney diseases.In our study,we chose FoxO1 as a potential target protein for miR-144-5p.Finally,TargetScan online analysis showed that miR-144-5p has a targeted binding site with the 3'UTR region of FoxO1.CONCLUSION:MiR-144-5p plays an important role in AMR after Kidney transplantation.MiR-144-5p targeting FoxO1 may be a potential therapeutic target and prognostic biomarker for AMR.
