Subacute cholecystitis complicated by gallbladder perforation often manifests as inflammatory lesions around the gallbladder， and it is extremely rare for this condition to cause massive hemorrhage into the omental bursa with secondary infection and result in massive hemorrhagic abscess. This article reports a case of a female patient， aged 68 years， who experienced massive hemorrhagic abscess in the omental bursa due to localized perforation and bleeding caused by a stone impacted in the gallbladder neck. The patient had a history of gallstones for 30 years and was admitted to Tianjin Nankai Hospital， Tianjin Medical University， after tertiary referral due to aggravated abdominal pain， chills， and fever. After comprehensive assessment by a multidisciplinary team， the patient underwent emergency laparoscopic cholecystectomy and clearance of the hemorrhagic abscess in the omental bursa. The patient recovered well and was discharged on day 10 after surgery， with good conditions during follow-up.

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the efficacy and safety of cholesterol absorption inhibitors （ezetimibe and hybutimibe） combined with statins for the treatment of dyslipidemia. METHODS Randomized controlled trials （RCTs） about above-mentioned drug combination in patients with dyslipidemia were retrieved from CNKI，PubMed and other Chinese and English databases. The retrieval time limit was from the establishment of the database to October 2025. After screening the literature，extracting the data，and evaluating the quality of the literature，network meta-analysis was performed using R software. RESULTS A total of 36 RCTs were included. Results showed that in reducing low-density lipoprotein cholesterol （LDL-C） and total cholesterol （TC）， ezetimibe+statins and hybutimibe+statins were significantly superior to statins+placebo and placebo alone （ P ＜0.05）. The top two interventions according to surface under the cumulative ranking curve （SUCRA） rankings were both ezetimibe+statins and hybutimibe+statins. In terms of triglyceride （TG） lowering， both hybutimibe+statins and ezetimibe+statins were significantly better than statins alone， statins+placebo and placebo alone （ P ＜0.05）， with hybutimibe+statins and ezetimibe+statins ranking top two by SUCRA. For apolipoprotein B （ApoB） reduction， ezetimibe+statins was significantly superior to statins alone and placebo alone （ P ＜0.05）， and the top two SUCRA rankings were ezetim ibe+statins and statins+placebo. In terms of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol （HDL-C） increase， placebo was significantly better than statins alone， hybutimibe+statins， statins+placebo， and ezetimibe+statins （ P ＜0.05）， and the top two SUCRA rankings were placebo alone and statins alone.There was no statistically significant difference in the overall incidence of adverse reactions among the interventions （ P ＞0.05）. CONCLUSIONS Ezetimibe combined with statins shows significant advantages in reducing LDL-C， TC and ApoB， while the hybutimibe combined with statins may have potential advantages in lowering TG； both combination regimens have good safety.

Objective:Effects of Qingsui Xiaoyan Decoction on osteoclast differentiation of RAW264.7 cells.Methods:Receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa B ligand (RANKL) was used to induce differentiation of RAW264.7 cells into osteoclasts. CCK-8 method was used to screen experimental drug concentrations and analyze the cytotoxicity of drug intervention on RAW264.7 cells. TRAP staining method was used to quantitatively detect the effects of Qingsui Xiaoyan Decoction on osteoclast differentiation ability. RT-PCR technology was used to detect the mRNA expressions of osteoclast differentiation genes TRAP, MMP-9, CK, CTR. Western blot was used to detect osteoclast-related protein expressions of NF-κBP65, IκB-αTRAP, and TRAP.Results:After 72 hours of intervention, 0.800, 4.000, 20.000, and 100.000 mg/ml of Qingsui Xiaoyan Decoction could inhibit cell proliferation ( P<0.05). Compared with the model group, the number of TRAP-positive cells decreased ( P<0.05) in the 5, 20, 80, and 160 μg/ml Qingsui Xiaoyan Decoction groups. Additionally, the mRNA levels of TRAP, MMP-9, CK, and CTR decreased ( P<0.05), the expression of NF-κB p65 and TRAP proteins decreased ( P<0.05), and the expression of IκB-α protein increased ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Qingsui Xiaoyan Decoction can inhibit the expressions of TRAP, MMP-9, CK, CTR genes and TRAP protein, reduce the degradation of I κ B - α protein by inhibiting the NF - κ B signaling pathway, inhibit the expression of NF - κ B p65 protein, and thus inhibit the differentiation of RAW264.7 into osteoclasts.

Background: s/Aims: Non-invasive models stratifying clinically significant portal hypertension (CSPH) are limited. Herein, we developed a new non-invasive model for predicting CSPH in patients with compensated cirrhosis and investigated whether carvedilol can prevent hepatic decompensation in patients with high-risk CSPH stratified using the new model. Methods: Non-invasive risk factors of CSPH were identified via systematic review and meta-analysis of studies involving patients with hepatic venous pressure gradient (HVPG). A new non-invasive model was validated for various performance aspects in three cohorts, i.e., a multicenter HVPG cohort, a follow-up cohort, and a carvediloltreating cohort. Results: In the meta-analysis with six studies (n=819), liver stiffness measurement and platelet count were identified as independent risk factors for CSPH and were used to develop the new “CSPH risk” model. In the HVPG cohort (n=151), the new model accurately predicted CSPH with cutoff values of 0 and –0.68 for ruling in and out CSPH, respectively. In the follow-up cohort (n=1,102), the cumulative incidences of decompensation events significantly differed using the cutoff values of <–0.68 (low-risk), –0.68 to 0 (medium-risk), and >0 (high-risk). In the carvediloltreated cohort, patients with high-risk CSPH treated with carvedilol (n=81) had lower rates of decompensation events than non-selective beta-blockers untreated patients with high-risk CSPH (n=613 before propensity score matching [PSM], n=162 after PSM). Conclusions Treatment with carvedilol significantly reduces the risk of hepatic decompensation in patients with high-risk CSPH stratified by the new model.

Objective To compare image quality and clinical usefulness between single breath-hold three-dimensional magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography with compressed sensing(3D BH-CS-MRCP)and with gradient and spin-echo(3D BH-GRASE-MRCP)and conventional three-dimensional breath-triggered magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography(3D RT-MRCP).Methods A retrospective analysis was performed in 48 patients(26 males and 22 females,mean age of 53.14±15.19 years),who underwent 3D BH-GRASE-MRCP,3D BH-CS-MRCP and 3D RT-MRCP from September to December 2023.Pancreaticobiliary duct visibility,motion artifacts,background suppression,and overall image quality were scored on a 5-point scale by two radiologists.The relative contrast ratio of three bile duct segmentations(common bile duct,left and right intrahepatic bile ducts)were calculated,and the acquisition time of the three sequences was recorded.Friedman test with a post-hoc test was performed to compare image acquisition time,qualitative and quantitative results.Results The acquisition time was significantly shorter in the two breath-hold groups than for conventional 3D RT-MRCP(P＜0.001).There were no significant differences in overall image quality,motion artifacts,common bile duct and primary branch of intrahepatic bile duct among the three groups.The relative contrast ratio,intrahepatic biliary secondary branch visibility and background suppression score of 3D RT-MRCP and BH-CS-MRCP were significantly higher than those of BH-GRASE-MRCP(P＜0.01).The pancreatic duct(proximal,middle,distal)visibility score of 3D RT-MRCP was significantly better than that of BH-GRASE-MRCP(P=0.002,0.043,0.001),but the gallbladder and gallbladder duct visibility score of BH-GRASE-MRCP was higher than that of 3D RT-MRCP(P=0.036).There was no significant difference between 3D RT-MRCP and BH-CS-MRCP scores except for the middle and distal pancreatic duct visibility.Conclusion Breath-hold 3D MRCP with GRASE and CS can give us feasible options for pancreaticobiliary diagnosis,which significantly shortens the acquisition time without reducing the overall image quality.Compared with BH-GRASE-MRCP,BH-CS-MRCP has better consistency in pancreaticobiliary duct visibility and background suppression.

Objective:To analyze the epidemiological and clinical characteristics of influenza A/B virus (IAV/IBV) infection in children aged 0-4 years in Jining city from 2022 to 2024.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the data of 3 106 influenza affected children who visited two monitoring outpost hospitals in Jining city from January 2022 to January 2024. They were separated into two groups based on the type of virus infection: IAV group (n=1 829) and IBV group (n=1 277). Two groups were compared for general information, epidemiological characteristics, and laboratory test indicators.Result:The majority of influenza patients were boys (59.01%) and 1-4 years old (63.01%), with peak body temperature mainly ranging from 37.8 to 38.9 ℃ (59.30%). Coughing (69.00%) and runny nose (66.03%) were the main manifestations. The onset season was concentrated in winter (42.43%) and spring (40.44%), and the exposure target were family members (51.90%), and the proportion of influenza vaccine injections (20.90%) was relatively low. The proportions of visit time≤3 d, peak body temperature≥39.0 ℃, myocardial damage, liver function damage, white blood cell count (WBC) of 4-10×10 9/L, and neutrophil percentage (N)>70% in the IAV group were higher than those in the IBV group ( P<0.05). The proportions of preschool children and WBC>10×10 9/L in the IBV group were higher than those in the IAV group ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Children aged 0-4 years who are infected with IAV in Jining City are more common in terms of high fever, early medical attention, impaired heart and liver function, normal WBC, and abnormal N elevation compared to those infected with IBV. However, children aged 0-4 who are infected with IBV have abnormally high WBC and are more common in daycare.

To develop a novel immunocastration vaccine for animals,researchers designed and syn-thesized the recombinant plasmid pET-30a-SF which could express the recombinant protein SF.This protein was then conjugated in vitro with the synthetic peptide STGP to prepare the SF-STGP nanoparticle vaccine,and its immunocastration effect on mice was studied.The Spy Catcher and ferritin amino acid sequences were connected via GGGGS,and after codon optimization for E.coli,the recombinant plasmid pET-30a-SF was constructed and transformed into E.coli for in-duced expression.The recombinant protein SF was purified using Ni-column affinity chromatogra-phy and characterized.The peptide STGP,composed of Spy Tag,GnRH,and PADRE connected by GGGS,was conjugated with the recombinant protein SF in vitro.The self-assembled nanoparticles were observed using transmission electron microscopy(TEM)and dynamic light scattering(DLS).The prepared SF-STGP nanoparticles were mixed with MONTANIDE ISA 206 VG at a 1∶1 ratio to form the vaccine,which was then subcutaneously injected into male BALB/c mice for immunocastration evaluation.The recombinant protein SF showed the highest soluble expression when induced at 18 ℃ with 0.25 mmol/L IPTG for 14 h,and the maximum conjugation efficiency with STGP was achieved at a 1∶8 molar ratio.TEM and DLS analyses revealed that both the re-combinant protein SF and SF-STGP could self-assemble into nanoparticles with average diameters of 16.2 nm and 17.8 nm,respectively.Mouse immunization results demonstrated that the SF-STGP nanoparticle vaccine generated specific GnRH antibodies after the first immunization,with the spe-cific antibody D45o reaching its peak at the 10 th week.The SF-STGP+ISA 206 immunization group showed a peak D450 value of 2.8,and the specific antibody levels in all immunization groups were significantly higher than those in the control group(P＜0.05).Additionally,the SF-STGP nanoparticle vaccine effectively reduced serum testosterone levels in mice,with the testosterone concentration in the immunization groups being significantly lower than that in the control group(P＜0.05).Compared to the control group,the immunization group exhibits testicular atrophy.The constructed SF-STGP nanoparticle vaccine proves to be a highly effective immunogen,capable of inducing testicular atrophy and reducing gonadal hormone concentrations,demonstrating excellent castration effects.This study provides new insights into immunocastration vaccines for mammals.

Objective:To develop evaluation indicators for care ability of caregivers in home-based palliative care based on the Farran caregiver skills model.Methods:Based on the Farran caregiver skills model, a preliminary evaluation index system was constructed through theoretical analysis, literature review, and semi-structured interviews. From July to October 2024, experts in the field were selected to conduct expert consultations, revise and improve the index system, and determine the weight of the indicators through the analytic hierarchy process.Results:A total of two rounds of expert consultations were conducted. The effective response rates for the first and second rounds of expert consultation questionnaires were 90.00% (18/20) and 100.00% (18/18), respectively. In the two rounds of expert consultations, 15 experts (83.33%) and 3 experts (16.67%) respectively proposed revision suggestions. In the two rounds of consultation, the expert authority coefficients were 0.931 and 0.936, respectively, and the Kendall coefficient of concordance were 0.152~0.283、0.183~0.269 ( P<0.05). The final evaluation indicators for care ability of caregivers in home-based palliative care included four first-level indicators, 12 second-level indicators, and 45 third-level indicators. Conclusions:The evaluation indicators for care ability of caregivers in home-based palliative care developed are highly scientific and reliable, and can provide a reference for the evaluation of family caregiver care ability and the formulation of training programs.
