Professionalism is the core quality necessary for outstanding physicians in the new era. As an important content of medical students’ ideological and political education， the medical professionalism with the scientific connotation of “respecting and protecting life， healing the wounded and rescuing the dying， being willing to contribute， and boundless love” radiates new vitality in the new era. The medical professionalism in the new era embodies the unity of science and humanity， regularity and purposefulness， timeliness and development， and theoreticality and practicality. In the ideological and political education of medical students based on the cultivation of professionalism in the new era， only by insisting on the combination of “ideological and political education in the curriculum” and “ideological and political courses”， “supply” and “demand”， “on-campus” and “off-campus”， and “virtual” and “reality”， as well as strengthening internal cohesion and external connection and making targeted efforts， the medical professionalism can better be cultivated， providing spiritual support for training a new force for the construction of a healthy China.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the neuroprotective effect and underlying mechanism of Xingnao Kaiqiao acupuncture (acupuncture for regaining consciousness and opening orifices) in the rat models of cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury (CIRI) based on the p53 protein (p53)/solute carrier family 7 member 11 (SLC7A11)/glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) signaling pathway. METHODS: Of 102 male Wistar rats, 20 rats were randomly collected as a sham-operation group. Using a modified external carotid artery filament insertion method, CIRI models were prepared by occluding the middle cerebral artery in the rest rats. After modeling and excluding 1 non-successfully modeled rat and 1 dead one, the other modeled rats were randomized into a model group, an agonist group, an acupuncture group, and an acupuncture + agonist group, 20 rats in each one. Xingnao Kaiqiao acupuncture therapy was delivered in the rats of the acupuncture group and the acupuncture + agonist group. The acupoints included "Shuigou" (GV26), bilateral "Neiguan" (PC6), and "Sanyinjiao" (SP6) on the affected side. Electroacupuncture was attached to "Neiguan" (PC6) and "Sanyinjiao" (SP6) on the affected side, with dense-disperse wave, a frequency of 2 Hz/15 Hz and intensity of 1 mA. The intervention was delivered twice daily, 20 min each time and for 7 consecutive days. In the agonist group and acupuncture+agonist group, p53 agonist, COTI-2 was intraperitoneally injected (15 mg/kg), once daily for 7 consecutive days. Neurological deficit was evaluated using Zausinger's six-point scale. Cerebral infarction volume was quantified by triphenyl tetrazolium chloride (TTC) staining. Histopathological changes were observed using hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining. Iron deposition was assessed by Prussian blue staining. Mitochondrial ultrastructure in the ischemic cortex was examined under transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Serum iron (Fe²⁺) was measured with chromometry. Malondialdehyde (MDA) and glutathione (GSH) levels in the ischemic hippocampus were determined using thiobarbituric acid and microplate assays, respectively. The mean fluorescence intensity of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the ischemic cortex was analyzed by flow cytometry. The mRNA and protein expression of GPX4, SLC7A11, and p53 in the ischemic hippocampus were evaluated using quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) and Western blotting, respectively. RESULTS: Compared with the sham-operated group, the model group exhibited the decrease in neurological deficit score (P<0.01), and the increase in cerebral infarction volume percentage (P<0.01). The changes of brain tissue were presented in extensive cellular necrosis, pyknotic and deeply-stained nuclei, and vacuolar degeneration. The iron deposition was elevated in cortex and hippocampus (P<0.01), mitochondrial membrane density increased, the cristae was broken or reduced, and the outer membrane ruptured. The levels of Fe²⁺ and MDA, as well as the mean flourscence intensity of ROS were elevated (P<0.01) and the level of GSH was reduced (P<0.01). The mRNA and protein expression of GPX4 and SLC7A11 was reduced (P<0.01), while that of p53 rose (P<0.01). When compared with the model group, in the agonist group, the neurological deficit score was reduced (P<0.05), the percentage of infarction volume was higher (P<0.01), the histopathological damage was further exacerbated, and the percentage of iron deposition increased in the cortex and hippocampus (P<0.01). The mitochondrial quantity decreased, the membrane density increased, the mitochondrial cristae were broken or reduced, and the outer membrane was ruptured. The levels of Fe²⁺ and MDA, as well as the mean flourscence intensity of ROS were higher (P<0.01, P<0.05) and the level of GSH was reduced (P<0.05). The mRNA and protein expression of GPX4 and SLC7A11 decreased (P<0.01, P<0.05), while that of p53 was elevated (P<0.01). Besides, in comparison with the model group, the neurological deficit score was higher in the acupuncture group and the acupuncture + agonist group (P<0.01, P<0.05), the percentage of cerebral infarction volume was lower in the acupuncture group (P<0.01), the pathological damage of brain tissue was alleviated in the acupuncture group and the acupuncture + agonist group, and the percentage of iron depositiondecreased in the cortex and hippocampus (P<0.01). The mitochondrial structure was relatively clear, the mitochondrial cristae were fractured or reduced mildly in the acupuncture group and the acupuncture + agonist group. The levels of Fe²⁺ and MDA, as well as the mean flourscence intensity of ROS were lower (P<0.01) and the level of GSH was higher (P<0.01) in the acupuncture group. The mean fluorescence intensity of ROS were dropped (P<0.01) in the acupuncture + agonist group. The mRNA expression of GPX4 and SLC7A11 was elevated (P<0.01) and that of p53 was reduced (P<0.01, P<0.05) in either the acupuncture group or the acupuncture + agonist group; the protein expression of GPX4 and SLC7A11 rose (P<0.05, P<0.01) and that of p53 was dropped (P<0.01) in the acupuncture group; and the protein expression of p53 was also lower in the acupuncture + agonist group (P<0.05). When compared with the agonist group, in the acupuncture + agonist group, neurological deficit score increased (P<0.01), the percentage of cerebral infarction volume decreased (P<0.01), the pathological brain tissue damage was reduced, the percentage of iron deposition in cortex and hippocampus decreased (P<0.01), the mitochondrial structure was relatively clear and the cristae broken or reduced slightly; the levels of Fe²⁺ and MDA, as well as the mean fluorescence intensity of ROS were dropped (P<0.01), while the level of GSH increased (P<0.05); the mRNA and protein expression of GPX4 and SLC7411 was elevated (P<0.01, P<0.05), and that of p53 reduced (P<0.01). In comparison with the acupuncture + agonist group, in the acupuncture group, the neurological deficit score increased (P<0.05), the percentage of cerebral infarction volume decreased (P<0.05), the pathological brain tissue damage was alleviated, the percentage of iron deposition in cortex and hippocampus decreased (P<0.01), the mitochondrial structure was normal in tendency; the levels of Fe²⁺ and MDA, as well as the mean fluorescence intensity of ROS were reduced (P<0.05), while the level of GSH rose (P<0.01); the mRNA and protein expression of GPX4 and SLC7411 was elevated (P<0.01, P<0.05), and that of p53 reduced (P<0.01, P<0.05). CONCLUSION Xingnao Kaiqiao acupuncture can alleviate neurological damage in CIRI rats, which is obtained probably by inhibiting ferroptosis through p53/SLC7A11/GPX4 pathway.

Objective:To translate the Hip Preservation Surgery Expectations Survey (HPSES) into Chinese and test its reliability and validity.Methods:This study strictly followed the principles of Brislin translation, back translation, and cross-cultural adaptation to form a simplified Chinese version of HPSES. From September 2019 to July 2021, a survey was conducted using convenience sampling method to select 215 patients from the Department of Orthopedics of the Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University who underwent hip preservation surgery to test the reliability and validity of the Chinese version of HPSES. This study used critical ratio determination and correlation analysis for item analysis, and used content validity index and structural validity to evaluate the validity of the scale, and the reliability of the scale was evaluated using Cronbach's α coefficients and half reliability.Results:The Chinese version of HPSES extracted 4 common factors, totaling 22 items, with a cumulative total variance contribution rate of 63.696%. The content validity index at the scale level was 0.97, and the content validity index at the item level was 0.83 to 1.00. The results of confirmatory factor analysis showed that the fit of the scale was good. The total Cronbach's α coefficient of the scale was 0.873, and Cronbach's α coefficients for each dimension ranged from 0.834 to 0.868. The overall Guttman half reliability coefficient of the scale was 0.840, and the Guttman half reliability coefficients for each dimension were 0.755 to 0.865.Conclusions:The Chinese version of HPSES has good reliability and validity, which can be used to evaluate the expected outcomes of patients undergoing hip preservation surgery, facilitating medical and nursing staffs to provide targeted preoperative health education and rehabilitation guidance to patients, and improving patients satisfaction.

Objective:To investigate the current status of knowledge expectation satisfaction of orthopedic patients during hospitalization, and to analyze the main influencing factors.Methods:From March 2021 to July 2021, a total of 320 orthopedic inpatients from Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University were selected by convenient sampling method, who were investigated by the general information, Patient Participation Ability Questionnaire, Excepted Knowledge of Hospital Patients and a self-designed questionnaire of actual accepted knowledge on the basis of this scale.Results:The highest level of knowledge expectation satisfaction in the functional dimension (-0.40 ± 0.32), and the lowest level in the economic dimension (-1.27 ± 0.38) ( t=22.45, 59.64, both P<0.01). Knowledge expectation difference was positively correlated with information acquisition ability ( r=0.802, P<0.01) and emotion management ability( r=0.671, P<0.01). Multiple linear regression analysis showed that education level, hospitalization experience, information acquisition ability and ability to manage emotions were the main influencing factors for this difference ( t values were -6.40-13.17, all P<0.05). Conclusions:The level of knowledge expectation satisfaction of orthopedic patients′ needs to be further improved. According to the level of education, hospitalization experience, information acquisition ability and emotion management ability of patients, nurses should formulate measures to improve the level of knowledge expectation satisfaction.

Autoimmune retinopathy (AIR) is a group of immune-mediated retinopathies that usually results in severe loss of vision and visual field defects.AIR mainly includes paraneoplastic and non-paraneoplastic syndromes.One main feature of AIR is the presence of circulating anti-retinal antibodies (ARAs) in peripheral blood, which are produced through anti-tumor responses, anti-microbial responses, and immune responses induced by autoantigen fragments following retinal injury, and mainly attack retinal photoreceptor cells.ARAs are important for the diagnosis, progression assessment and treatment outcome of AIR.These ARAs often appear before the diagnosis of cancer and can be helpful for the early detection of malignant tumors.The mechanism of ARAs production, its pathological role in AIR, and its significance in clinical practice were reviewed in this article.
