Objective:To explore the clinical value of plasma von Willebrand factor antigen(VWF:Ag)and VWF activity(VWF:GPIbM)based on ABO blood group in the risk assessment of deep vein thrombosis(DVT).Methods:A total of 163 patients with DVT who sought medical treatment from March 2021 to December 2022 were selected as the case group,and 135 healthy volunteers during the same period were selected as the control group.The differences of ABO blood groups,plasma VWF:Ag and VWF:GPIbM levels between the two groups were compared.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curves were used to evaluate the clinical value of VWF testing in predicting DVT events.Logistic regression analysis was applied to identify risk factors for DVT.Results:The levels of plasma VWF:Ag and VWF:GPIbM in the DVT group were significantly higher than those in the control group both overall and across ABO blood type subgroups(P＜0.01).Within the DVT group,the levels of plasma VWF:Ag and VWF:GPIbM in patients with non-O blood type were significantly higher than those with blood type O[VWF:Ag:219.74％±63.64％vs 162.21％±56.03％,P＜0.01;VWF:GPIbM:228.10％(185.15％,249.10％)vs 148.25％(116.48％,225.48％),P＜0.01].The area under the ROC curve(AUC)of VWF:Ag for predicting DVT events was 0.855,with a cut-off value of 142.4％,sensitivity of 82.2％and specificity of 72.6％;the AUC of VWF:GPIbM was 0.861,with a cut-off value of 141.2％,sensitivity of 84.7％,and specificity of 71.1％.Univariate analysis showed that both VWF:Ag and VWF:GPIbM were influencing factors for DVT events(P＜0.05).Multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated that VWF:Ag＞142.4％(OR=13.961,95％CI:7.654-25.464,P＜0.01)and VWF:GPIbM＞141.2％(OR=17.615,95％CI:9.155-33.892,P＜0.01)were independent risk factors for DVT events.Conclusion:Levels of VWF:Ag and VWF:GPIbM are significantly elevated in non-O blood type DVT patients.VWF:Ag＞142.4％and VWF:GPIbM＞141.2％are independent risk factors for DVT events.VWF testing based on ABO blood group aids in the precision prevention and control of DVT.

Objective:To evaluate the impact of Diagnosis-Intervention Packet(DIP)payment reform on medical service costs and efficiency for inpatients in public hospitals,and to compare differences between surgical and medical groups.Methods:A quasi-experimental design was employed,using 605 636 discharged patients from a tertiary hospital in Hebei Province between January 2020 and March 2025 as the sample.The difference-in-differences(DID)model was used to analyze the changes in key indicators between the DIP settlement group(intervention group)and the non-DIP settlement group(control group).Results:Total hospitalization costs,out-of-pocket expenses,and medication costs were significantly reduced in the DIP settlement group(P<0.05),while costs for examinations,nursing,laboratory tests,and treatments increased significantly(P<0.05).Material costs increased by 30.7%in the surgical group(P<0.1)and decreased by 19.8%in the medical group(P<0.01).In terms of efficiency,the average length of stay,time,and cost consumption index all decreased(P<0.01),while the proportion of medical services increased(P<0.01).The case mix index(CMI)showed no significant changes.Conclusion:The DIP reform effectively controlled costs and improved efficiency,but it also resulted in cost shifting and departmental disparities.Therefore,it is necessary to optimize cost control and departmental management policies.

Aim To investigate the effects of dimethyl-arginine dimethylamino hydrolase 1(DDAH1)on high glucose-induced mitochondrial dysfunction and mitoph-agy in vascular endothelial cells.Methods JC-1 stai-ning was used to detect mitochondrial membrane poten-tial.DCFH-DA fluorescent probe was employed to measure reactive oxygen species(ROS)levels.Ho-echst staining was used to assess cell apoptosis.Real-time PCR was conducted to detect DDAH1 mRNA lev-els.Western blot was performed to analyze the expres-sion of DDAH1,LC3-Ⅰ and LC3-Ⅱ proteins.Mitochon-drial probe Mitotracker and autophagosome marker pro-tein LC3 were used in cell immunofluorescence co-lo-calization to assess mitochondrial autophagy,and high-performance liquid chromatography was utilized to measure the levels of asymmetric dimethylarginine(ADMA)in cell supernatant.Results High glucose treatment for 48 h significantly reduced mitochondrial membrane potential,increased ROS production,and promoted apoptosis in human umbilical vein endothelial cells(HUVECs).High glucose downregulated the ex-pression of LC3-Ⅱ/LC3-Ⅰ proteins,reduced the co-lo-calization of Mitotracker and LC3,and inhibited mito-chondrial autophagy.Autophagy inhibitors 3-MA or CQ exacerbated high glucose-induced mitochondrial dam-age and apoptosis in HUVECs,while autophagy activa-tor RAPA alleviated these effects.High glucose signifi-cantly downregulated DDAH1 protein expression in HUVECs and increased ADMA levels in cell superna-tant.DDAH1 siRNA inhibited mitochondrial autoph-agy,reduced mitochondrial membrane potential,and promoted apoptosis,whereas DDAH1 overexpression enhanced mitochondrial autophagy and alleviated high glucose-induced apoptosis in HUVECs.Conclusion High glucose-induced endothelial mitochondrial dys-function is associated with the suppression of DDAH1 expression,the increase of ADMA levels,and thereduc-tion of mitochondrial autophagy.

Aim To investigate the effect of triptolide(TP)on corticosterone(CORT)-induced depression-like behaviors in mice and explore the antidepressant mechanism of TP based on the CREB/BDNF/TrkB sig-naling pathway.Methods Sixty 8-week-old male C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into five groups:control group,CORT group,TP groups of low and high doses(10,30 μg·kg-1),and fluoxetine(FLU)group(10 mg·kg-1).Except for the control group,the other groups received subcutaneous injec-tions of CORT for three consecutive weeks to establish the model of depression.During the last two weeks of modeling,normal saline,TP and FLU were adminis-tered via intraperitoneal injection respectively.After the administration,depression-like behaviors in mice were assessed using forced swimming test,tail suspen-sion test,and sucrose preference test.Biochemical methods were used to measure the levels of SOD and MDA in the hippocampus and prefrontal cortex(PFC).Cell apoptosis was detected by TUNEL meth-od.Immunohistochemistry,immunofluorescence,and Western blotting were employed to detect the expres-sion of apoptosis/autophagy-related proteins,synaptic structure markers,and proteins related to the CREB/BDNF/TrkB signaling pathway.Results TP signifi-cantly ameliorated CORT-induced depression-like be-haviors in mice,mainly manifested by reduced immo-bility time in the tail suspension test and forced swim-ming test,and increased sucrose preference rate.TP alleviated CORT-induced oxidative stress by increasing SOD levels and reducing MDA production in brain tis-sue.Additionally,TP also inhibited apoptosis and ex-cessive autophagy of neurons in the hippocampus and prefrontal cortex,maintained synaptic plasticity,and significantly upregulated the expression of p-CREB,BDNF,and TrkB.Conclusions TP exhibits potential antidepressant effect in mice by upregulating the CREB/BDNF/TrkB signaling pathway,reducing oxida-tive stress,inhibiting excessive neuronal apoptosis and autophagy,and improving synaptic plasticity.

Objective:To explore the value of multiparametric ultrasonography，including grayscale ultrasound（US），color Doppler flow imaging（CDFI），and real-time shear wave elastography（SWE）in diagnosing mucosal healing（MH）in pediatric patients with Crohn's disease.Methods:This prospective study consecutively enrolled pediatric CD patients who underwent endoscopic examinations at Hunan Children's Hospital from January 2024 to August 2024. Based on the Simplified Endoscopic Score for Crohn's Disease（SES-CD），all intestinal segments were divided into two groups：the MH group and the non-mucosal healing（NMH）group. Differences in bowel wall thickness（BWT），bowel wall stratification，color Doppler grading，SWE values，and increased thickness of mesenteric fat were compared between the two groups. ROC curves were plotted to evaluate the diagnostic performance of each ultrasound parameter. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used to identify independent predictors of MH，and a regression model was developed based on these factors.Results:A total of 234 intestinal segments from 60 pediatric CD patients were included in the analysis，divided into the MH group（101 segments）and the NMH group（133 segments）.There were significant differences between the MH and NMH groups in terms of BWT，bowel wall stratification，color Doppler grading，SWE values，and increased thickness of mesenteric fat（all P<0.05）. The multivariate Logistic regression analysis identified BWT，color Doppler grading，and SWE values as independent predictors associated with MH（all P<0.05）.The area under the ROC curve was 0.906（95% CI = 0.867 - 0.945， P＜0.05），with a sensitivity of 0.865 and specificity of 0.851. Conclusions:Multiparametric ultrasonography can effectively assess MH in pediatric CD patients，providing critical information for accurate clinical evaluation of disease status and treatment outcomes.
