Objective To investigate the needs of the main caregivers of patients with spinal cord injury following neurogenic bowel dysfunction to participate in the whole process of intestinal management.Methods Nine main caregivers of patients with spinal cord injury in Jiangsu Province Hospital from January to Decem-ber,2024 were selected with objective sampling method.They were investigated face-to-face semi-structured in-depth interviews,and the data were analyzed,summarized and extracted by Colaizzi 7-step analysis method.Results Three themes and eight sub-themes were extracted:the needs of professional knowledge and skills standards in intestinal management(lack of intestinal training knowledge,lack of ability to acquire knowledge and different standards of medical institutions);the needs of physical ability and decision making ability participating in intesti-nal training(lack of participation,single decision-making behavior,excessive dependence on medical personnel);the desire for therapeutic benefits and the needs for building psychological confidence(concerns about the pa-tient's prognosis,overdependence on medication).Conclusion Clinical medical staff should pay attention to the actual needs and difficulties faced by the main caregivers of patients with neurogenic bowel dysfunction to participate in the entire intestinal management,and construct targeted training programs,strengthen the skills and knowledge training,to enhance their autonomy and responsi-bility,to achieve the rehabilitation goal better.

Objective:To investigate the effects of Clostridium butyricum on ulcerative colitis（UC）in mice and its impact on gut microbiota and autophagy levels. Methods:Eighteen C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into a control group，a model group，and a treatment group，with six mice in each group using simple random sampling. Mice in the model and treatment groups were freely given 2.5% dextran sulfate sodium salt（DSS）solution for 5 days to establish a UC model. After successful modeling，the control and model groups were gavaged with PBS，while the treatment group was gavaged with 5×10 8 CFU/ml of live Clostridium butyricum. After the intervention，changes in body weight，disease activity index（DAI），colonic length，and pathological conditions were compared among the groups. Fluorescence quantitative PCR was used to detect the expression levels of intestinal inflammatory cytokines IL-1β and TNF-α. Myeloperoxidase（MPO）levels were analyzed，and Western blot was employed to detect the expression levels of zonula occludens-1（ZO-1），Occludin，LC3Ⅱ/LC3I，p62，and AMP-activated protein kinase/mammalian target of rapamycin AMPK/mTOR proteins. High-throughput sequencing technology was utilized to analyze the intestinal microbiota of the mice. Results:Compared with mice in the control group，the mice in the model group exhibited significant weight loss，markedly increased DAI and inflammation levels（ P<0.01），destruction of colonic structure，decreased expression levels of intestinal tight junction proteins（ P<0.05），suppressed autophagy levels（ P<0.05），and dysbiosis of the intestinal microbiota. In contrast，mice in the treatment group had a slower weight decline compared to the model group（ P<0.000 1），reduced DAI（ P<0.01），down-regulated inflammation levels（ P<0.01），improved barrier function（ P<0.05），up-regulated autophagy levels（ P<0.01），and an improved intestinal microbiota composition. Conclusions:Clostridium butyricum may ameliorate UC by modulating the intestinal microbiota composition，and enhancing autophagy levels，thus improving intestinal barrier function and inhibiting inflammatory progression in UC mice.

OBJECTIVE To correctly identify and respond to severe systemic allergic reactions caused by Wujia shenghua capsules during the postpartum period， provide a reference for medication use in obstetrics and gynecology departments， and promote rational drug use. METHODS Clinical pharmacists participated in the pharmaceutical monitoring and treatment process for a case of severe systemic allergic reaction after using Wujia shenghua capsules during the postpartum period. They screened the medication used by the patient during hospitalization and evaluated the relationship between the allergic reaction and Wujia shenghua capsules， as well as the possible causes of the reaction. RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS The relationship between severe systemic allergic reactions in the patient and Wujia shenghua capsules is evaluated as “likely related”， suggesting that patients with the allergic constitution should be vigilant when using Wujia shenghua capsules during the postpartum period， and pharmaceutical monitoring should be strengthened to avoid the simultaneous use of drugs with the same mechanism or potential interactions.

Objective To investigate the effect of the petroleum ether extract of Sageretia thea on the proliferation and apoptosis of breast cancer cells.Methods After breast cancer cells were incubated with the petroleum ether extract for different times,cell viability was analyzed by CCK8 assay,cell proliferation was detected by plate cloning test,nuclear morphology was observed by DAPI staining,mitochondrial membrane potential(MMP)and reactive oxygen species(ROS)were determined by immunofluorescence,and the cell cycle and apoptosis were detected by flow cytometry.After incubating with the extract for 24 h,the CCK8 assay was used to observe the toxicity to normal human vascular endothelial cells.Results The IC50 of BT549 and MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cell lines treated with the petroleum ether extract for 24 h were 45.40 μg/ml and 12.23 μg/ml,respectively.The extract time and dose dependently inhibited breast cancer cell viability and clonal formation,induced cell apoptosis and cycle arrest in G1/S phase,decreased MMP and increased ROS levels.There was no toxic effect on normal endothelial cells.Conclusion The petroleum ether extract of Sageretia thea may induce apoptosis by increasing ROS to cause MMP collapse,followed by activating mitochondrial pathway,thereby hindering the growth of breast cancer cells.These results could support the application of Sageretia thea to anti-breast tumor in the folk.

Objective To construct a predictive model of thrombus clearance rate to guide the selection of therapeutic strategies for acute lower extremity venous thromboembolism patients by studying the clinic data of patients who underwent AngioJet mechanical thromboaspiration surgery.Methods By calculating the thrombus clearance rate in 83 VTE patients treated with AngioJet surgery,correlation analysis of clinical data,combined with the characteristic factors in the LASSO regression model,multiple logistic regression analysis was applied to build a prediction model of thrombus clearance rate column line graph,and the accuracy of the prediction model was evaluated using C index,calibration curve and decision curve.Results VTE type was significantly correlated with thrombus clearance rate,and the predictors in the column line plot contained:age,sex,thrombus type,surgical history,tumor history,and smoking history.The model showed great predictive power and high accuracy with a C-index of 0.795(95％CI:0.682 3-0.905 7).Decision curve analysis showed that prediction of thrombus clearance by column line plot for AngioJet procedure was effective when the threshold probability was in the range of 0.02-0.63.Conclusion In the correlation analysis,VTE type was significantly correlated with thrombus clearance.The results of this study showed that the AngioJet thrombus aspiration procedure was able to achieve a high rate of thrombus clearance in men older than 65 years with a history of tumors,a central thrombus type,no history of surgery,and no history of smoking.

Due to the limitations of current anti-HBV therapies, the HBV core (HBc or HBcAg) protein assembly modulators (CpAMs) are believed to be potential anti-HBV agents. Therefore, discovering safe and efficient CpAMs is of great value. In this study, we established a HiBiT-based high-throughput screening system targeting HBc and screened novel CpAMs from an in-house marine chemicals library. A novel lead compound 8a, a derivative of the marine natural product naamidine J, has been successfully screened for potential anti-HBV activity. Bioactivity-driven synthesis was then conducted, and the structure‒activity relationship was analyzed, resulting in the discovery of the most effective compound 11a (IC₅₀ = 0.24 μmol/L). Furthermore, 11a was found to significantly inhibit HBV replication in multiple cell models and exhibit a synergistic effect with tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) and IFNa2 in vitro for anti-HBV activity. Treatment with 11a in a hydrodynamic-injection mouse model demonstrated significant anti-HBV activity without apparent hepatotoxicity. These findings suggest that the naamidine J derivative 11a could be used as the HBV core protein assembly modulator to develop safe and effective anti-HBV therapies.

Objective:To investigate the effect of short single reverse-α fixation of nasobiliary tube after endoscopic nasobiliary drainage.Methods:From January 2019 to October 2019, the patients who performed with endoscopic nasolbiliary drainage in Tongji University Affiliated Shanghai East Hospital were randomly divided into experimental group (short single reverse-α fixation, 155 cases) and control group (routine reverse-α fixation, 137 cases). The incidences of the fixation time, prolapse rate, nursing time, scores of nasal comfort and bile flow rate of nasobiliary duct were evaluated between the two groups.Results:The average time of nasobiliary duct fixation was (18.31±1.67) s, the prolapse rate was 5.2% (8/155) and the time of nursing was (35.03±2.68) s, which were lower than those of the control group (46.50±5.50) s, 13.9% (19/137) and (72.07±7.63) s. The difference was statistically significant ( t or χ 2 values were 60.795, 6.570, 56.629, P<0.01 or 0.05). The comfort score of the experimental group was (4.61±1.06) points, the bile flow rate was (241.52±53.95) ml/days, which were higher than (5.76±0.76) points and (174.09±47.55) ml/days of the control group, the difference was statistically significant ( t values were 10.448, 11.265, P<0.01). Conclusions:Shortening the length of nasobiliary duct combined with single reaction "α" method has the advantages of simper operation and nursing, low prolapse rate, high comfort and good drainage effect. It is worthy of clinical application.

Objective:To investigate the prevalence of thyroid nodules among students aged 8 - 17 years in Jintan District, Changzhou City, Jiangsu Province, and to explore the risk factors of thyroid nodules among underage students.Methods:In September 2018, two primary and middle schools, one ordinary high school and one vocational high school in Jintan District were selected as the survey sites. Students aged 8 - 17 years were selected as the survey subjects, and questionnaire survey, physical examination and thyroid ultrasound examination were conducted. At the same time, drinking water samples from schools and towns were collected to test water iodine, and urine samples from students and family salt samples were collected to test urinary iodine and salt iodine. Multivariate logistic regression was used to analyze related factors that may affect the occurrence of thyroid nodules.Results:A total of 725 students were surveyed, including 359 (49.5%) boys and 366 (50.5%) girls. Two water samples were collected from each of the four schools, and the mean values of water iodine were 0.3, 8.5, 0.2 and 0.2 μg/L, respectively; two water samples were collected from each of the towns where the four schools were located, and the mean values of water iodine were 6.8, 8.1, 4.8 and 3.7 μg/L, respectively. A total of 725 urine samples were collected, and the median urinary iodine was 209.92 μg/L, ranging from 8.60 to 932.00 μg/L. A total of 725 edible salt samples were collected from students' families, and the salt iodine content was (23.75 ± 7.10) mg/kg, ranging from 0.00 to 60.30 mg/kg, and 95.0% (689/725) of students' families ate iodized salt. A total of 725 students were examined for thyroid gland, and 22 were diagnosed with goiter, with an enlargement rate of 3.0%; and 155 were diagnosed with thyroid nodules, with a detection rate of 21.4%. The detection rates of thyroid nodules in boys and girls were 20.9% (75/359) and 21.9% (80/366), respectively; the detection rates of thyroid nodules in students who participated and did not participate in extracurricular tuition/interest classes in the past month were 28.2% (71/252) and 17.8% (84/473), respectively. The results of multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that girls and participating in extracurricular tuition/interest classes in the past month were independent risk factors for the occurrence of thyroid nodules [odds ratio ( OR) = 2.057, 2.538, 95% confidence interval ( CI): 1.226 - 3.451, 1.532 - 4.204, P < 0.05). Conclusions:The detection rate of thyroid nodules in students aged 8 - 17 years in Jintan District is at a high level. Girls and participating in extracurricular tuition/interest classes in the past month are independent risk factors for the occurrence of thyroid nodules.
