[Objective] To explore the effectiveness of applying the PDCA (Plan-Do-Check-Act) cycle to enhance the compatibility rate of five Rh blood group antigen phenotypes between donors and recipients across multiple hospital campuses. [Methods] Clinical blood transfusion data from May to July 2022 were selected. Specific improvement measures were formulated based on the survey results, and the PDCA cycle management model was implemented from August 2022. The post-intervention phase spanned from August 2022 to October 2023. The Rh phenotype compatibility rate, the detection rate of Rh system antibodies, and the proportion of Rh system antibodies among unexpected antibodies were compared between the pre-intervention phase (May to July 2022) and the post-intervention phase. [Results] After the continuous improvement with the PDCA cycle, the compatibility rate for the five Rh blood group antigen phenotypes between donors and recipients from August to October 2023 reached 81.90%, significantly higher than the 70.54% recorded during the pre-intervention phase (May to July 2022, P<0.01), and displayed a quarterly upward trend (β=0.028, P<0.05). The detection rate of Rh blood group system antibodies (β=-9.839×10^-5, P<0.05) and its proportion among all detected antibodies (β=-0.022, P<0.05) showed a quarterly decreasing trend, both demonstrating a negative correlation with the enhanced compatibility rate (r values of -0.981 and -0.911, respectively; P<0.05). [Conclusion] The implementation of targeted measures through the PDCA cycle can effectively increase the compatibility rate of five Rh blood group antigen phenotypes between donors and recipients, reduce the occurrence of unexpected Rh blood group antibodies, thereby lowering the risk of transfusion and enhancing the quality and safety of medical care.

OBJECTIVE To study the improvement effect and mechanism of Shengmai powder on heart failure （HF） mice with qi-yin deficiency. METHODS The mice were randomly divided into blank group （water）， model group （water）， Shengmai powder low-， medium-， and high-dose groups [2.61， 5.22 and 10.44 g/kg （based on crude drug dosage）] and positive control group （metoprolol， 30 mg/kg）， with 10 mice in each group. Except for the blank group， all other groups were subcutaneously injected with D-galactose， and a qi-yin deficiency HF mice model was established by continuous food restriction and weight-bearing swimming. At the same time of modeling， the corresponding medicine/water was gavaged once a day for five weeks. The general state of mice was recorded and the traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） syndrome score was evaluated. Behavioral experiments were conducted to investigate the total distance of open field action， the percentage of immobility time， and the swimming exhaustion time of mice. The contents of aspartate transaminase （AST）， creatine kinase （CK） and lactate dehydrogenase （LDH） in the serum of mice were detected； cardiac function indexes [heart rate， left ventricular ejection fraction （LVEF）， left ventricular end systolic diameter （LVESD）， left ventricular end diastolic diameter （LVEDD）， left ventricular mass index and whole heart mass index] were all detected； the histopathological morphology of mice myocardium was observed； the level of cardiomyocyte apoptosis in mice was detected； mRNA expression levels of B-cell lymphoma 2 （Bcl-2）， Bcl-2 associated X protein （Bax）， and Cleaved-caspase-3 in myocardial tissue of mice were detected； the phosphorylation levels of sarcoplasmic reticulum calcium regulatory related proteins [ryanodine receptor 2 （RyR2） and phospholamban （PLB）] in myocardial tissue of mice were detected. RESULTS Compared with the blank group， the body weight， total distance of open field action， swimming exhaustion time， LVEF， LVEDD， Bcl-2 mRNA expression level in myocardial tissue and PLB protein phosphorylation level in the model group were significantly reduced/shortened （P＜0.05）； TCM syndrome score， the percentage of immobility time， heart rate， LVESD， left ventricular mass index， whole heart mass index， cardiomyocyte apoptosis rate， the contents of CK， LDH and AST in serum， mRNA expression levels of Cleaved-caspase-3 and Bax and the phosphorylation level of RyR2 protein in myocardial tissue were significantly increased （P＜0.05）； there were inflammatory cell infiltration， disordered cell arrangement and obvious myocardial interstitial fibrosis in myocardial tissue. After the intervention of Shengmai powder， most of the above quantitative indexes in mice were significantly reversed （P＜0.05）， the inflammatory cell infiltration in myocardial tissue was reduced， and the degree of fibrosis was significantly reduced. CONCLUSIONS Shengmai powder can improve cardiac function， reduce the level of cardiomyocyte apoptosis and myocardial fibrosis in HF mice with qi-yin deficiency. Its mechanism may be related to the regulation of the expression of sarcoplasmic reticulum calcium regulation related proteins.

Allergic conjunctivitis is the most common type of allergic eye disease, and the incidence in children and adolescents is increasing year by year. Drug therapy can only relieve some symptoms and only in a short period, while allergen immunotherapy is currently a therapy that can significantly improve the symptoms of chronic allergy and the course of the disease. This method has been used abroad for many years but has yet to be reported in China. The author reviews the effective mechanism and clinical efficiency of allergen immunotherapy and provides a reference for the further clinical application in China.

This paper discusses the application of medical-industrial fusion training model in the training of o ncology professionals, and explores the new teaching mode of medical-industrial fusion thinking in the cultivation of complex and innovative medical talents in oncology under the background of "new medical science".

With the deepening of China's medical reform, people's demand for health is growing, which promotes the construction of "new medicine" and puts forward higher requirements for the cultivation and education of medical students. Undergraduate medical education is a crucial period for the growth of medical students, and how to do a good job in undergraduate teaching under the background of "new medicine" is currently a research hotspot. The clinical teaching stage is an important period for medical students to fully understand clinical disciplines and cultivate their understanding of specialties. Therefore, we should explore new teaching methods and means to adapt to the needs of the new era. In the context of "new medicine", the medical-engineering fusion diagnosis and treatment technology has become an important trend in the clinical diagnosis and treatment of oncology. In order to adapt to this change, clinical teaching and teaching management in oncology also need new exploration and research. Taking the clinical teaching of oncology as an example, this article discusses how to cultivate medical students' thinking of medical-engineering fusion.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the improvement effects of 3，5，6，7，8，3′，4′-heptamethoxyflavone （HMF） of Fructus Aurantii on rats with damp blockage of the middle energizer. METHODS The rats were randomly divided into normal group， model group， positive control group （Raceanisodamine tablet， 1 mg/kg）， HMF low-dose， medium-dose and high-dose groups （0.3， 0.6， 0.9 mg/kg）， with 7 rats in each group. Except for the normal group， the other groups were modeled by internal and external composite factors. After successful modeling， the rats in each group were given the corresponding drug or normal saline， once a day， for 14 days. The general behavioral states such as dietary intake， water intake and mental state of the rats were observed， and the fecal water content rate and saliva flow rate were measured. Hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining was used to observe the pathological and morphology in gastric and small intestinal tissues of rats. The plasma content of aldosterone was detected， and the expression of aquaporins （AQP3） in the gastric tissue of rats was determined. RESULTS Compared with the normal group， the dietary intake and water intake of the model group rats were significantly decreased （P＜0.01）， the fecal water content rate， salivary flow rate， plasma content of aldosterone and the expression of AQP3 in gastric tissue were increased significantly （P＜0.01）. Gastric tissue injury invaded the mucosal muscle layer， resulting in mucosal muscle layer rupture； pathological and morphological changes such as small intestinal villous erosion and glandular structure destruction were observed in the small intestine. Compared with the model group， the dietary intake and water intake of rats were increased in HMF groups； fecal water content rate， salivary flow rate， plasma content of aldosterone， the expression of AQP3 in gastric tissue were decreased， most of the above differences were statistically significant （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. The pathological and morphological changes in the gastric and small intestine tissues of rats had been improved to varying degrees. CONCLUSIONS HMF of Fructus Aurantii with dry property HMF could improve the symptoms of rats with damp blockage of middle energizer， the mechanism of which may be associated with reducing the content of plasma aldosterone and down-regulating the expression of gastric AQP3.

Since the proposal of the concept of the gut-liver axis,a large number of studies have focused on exploring the connection between gut microbiota and liver disease;however,the idea of using pyroptosis as a hub to explore the intrinsic mechanism of gut-liver crosstalk is still in its infancy.This article mainly describes the process by which gut microbiota dysbiosis affects the integrity of mucosal barrier and bile acid metabolism,induces pyroptosis,and thereby affects the development and progression of liver diseases,and it also concludes that gut microbiota dysbiosis affects liver diseases by inducing NLRP3/AIM2/Caspase-1-dependent,Caspase-4/11/GSDMD-dependent,and Caspase-3/GSDME-dependent pyroptosis.In summary,this study aims to provide new ideas and targets for the future diagnosis and treatment of liver diseases by establishing the connection between pyroptosis and intestinal-liver immune crosstalk.

Objective This study investigated the epidemic characteristics and spatio-temporal dynamics of hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) in Qingdao City,China. Methods Information was collected on HFRS cases in Qingdao City from 2010 to 2022. Descriptive epidemiologic,seasonal decomposition,spatial autocorrelation,and spatio-temporal cluster analyses were performed. Results A total of 2,220 patients with HFRS were reported over the study period,with an average annual incidence of 1.89/100,000 and a case fatality rate of 2.52％. The male:female ratio was 2.8:1. 75.3％ of patients were aged between 16 and 60 years old,75.3％ of patients were farmers,and 11.6％ had both "three red" and "three pain" symptoms. The HFRS epidemic showed two-peak seasonality:the primary fall-winter peak and the minor spring peak. The HFRS epidemic presented highly spatially heterogeneous,street/township-level hot spots that were mostly distributed in Huangdao,Pingdu,and Jiaozhou. The spatio-temporal cluster analysis revealed three cluster areas in Qingdao City that were located in the south of Huangdao District during the fall-winter peak. Conclusion The distribution of HFRS in Qingdao exhibited periodic,seasonal,and regional characteristics,with high spatial clustering heterogeneity. The typical symptoms of "three red" and"three pain" in patients with HFRS were not obvious.

Objective To develop and validate a machine learning (ML)model based on serum Klotho protein that can accurately predict all-cause mortality in chronic kidney disease (CKD ) patients.Methods A retrospective cohort trial was conducted on all the non-dialysis adult patients diagnosed with CKD stages 1～5 in our department from February 7,2012 to October 18,2019.They were assigned into a training set and an internal validation set in a ratio of 7:3.A total of 47 clinical features,including serum Klotho protein level,were used as variables to inform these models.Based on the training set,univariate Cox regression model was employed to screen out the possible risk factors for all-cause mortality,and Lasso-Cox regression model was further applied for the screening.Then multivariate Cox stepwise regression analysis was conducted to develop a nomogram risk prediction model for all-cause mortality,and the model performance was evaluated through internal validation.Results There were totally 400 patients enrolled in this trial,and 280 of them (including 52 dead and 228 survival)were assigned into the training set and other 120 (including 21 dead and 99 survival)into the validation set.For the constructed 5-year all-cause mortality risk prediction model,the area under the curve (AUC)value was 0.760 (95％CI:0.676～0.844)in the training set and 0.788 (95％CI:0.679～0.897)in the validation set,and the overall C-index was 0.755 (95％CI:0.685～0.826)and 0.720 (95％CI:0.614～0.826),respectively in the 2 sets.Univariate Cox regression analysis showed that age,history of cardiovascular disease(CVD),cystatin C(Cys-C),alkaline phosphatase (ALP),albumin,eosinophil (EOS)count,hemoglobin (Hb),complement C3,calcium,C-reactive protein (CRP),TNF-α and serum Klotho protein may be predictive factors for all-cause mortality (P<0.05).Multivariate Cox stepwise regression analysis finally screened age,albumin,complement C3 and serum Klotho protein as independent predictors (P<0.05).Based on these 4 predictors,a risk prediction model for all-cause mortality was constructed and validated.Conclusion A Klotho-based risk ML model for predicting all-cause mortality in CKD patients is successfully developed and validated.Advanced age is a risk factor,and higher albumin,complement C3 and serum Klotho protein levels are protective factors for all-cause mortality in CKD patients.
