OBJECTIVE To evaluate the safety of fondaparinux in pregnancy and provide reference for its rational clinical application. METHODS A search was conducted in databases including CNKI， Wanfang， PubMed， Embase， and Elsevier （the search time was from the construction of the database to December 17， 2024） to collect case report literature on fondaparinux use during pregnancy. Patient demographic information， fondaparinux use during pregnancy， concomitant medications， clinical manifestations， and treatment details were extracted for descriptive statistical analysis. RESULTS A total of 17 case reports regarding the use of fondaparinux during pregnancy were collected， involving 42 patients from 11 countries and 47 pregnancy records. Among these， 20 cases involved the use of fondaparinux for the prevention of pregnancy-related venous thromboembolism （VTE）， while 27 cases were fondaparinux treatment due to related conditions. A total of 29 occurrences of the patients were treated with fondaparinux due to a （family） history of VTE. Nine occurrences of complicated pregnancies were reported， and 35 patients had records of comorbidities or relevant medical histories. The adverse events that occurred during pregnancy with the use of fondaparinux include postpartum hemorrhage （7 cases） and excessive anticoagulation caused by inappropriate dosage （1 case）. Among the 7 cases of postpartum hemorrhage， 3 cases had a blood loss of no less than 1 000 mL （including 2 cases with uterine atony）， 3 cases had a drug discontinuation time of ≤12 h. CONCLUSIONS Based on the existing literature， the safety of fondaparinux during pregnancy is generally manageable， with the main adverse event being postpartum hemorrhage. The dosage， interval between discontinuation，comorbidities/medical history， and concomitant medications of fondaparinux may be the main causes of its adverse events.

OBJECTIVE To explore the ameliorative effect of Tiaozhi Xiaoban Mixture on atherosclerosis and the potential role of long non-coding RNA(Linc RNA)in anti-atherosclerosis.METHODS A model of atherosclerosis was established in SD rats subjec-ted to a high-fat diet.At 4 weeks post-modeling,thoracic aortic tissues from atherosclerotic rats were collected for hematoxylin-eosin(HE)staining to systematically evaluate the anti-atherosclerotic effects of Tiaozhi Xiaoban Mixture at different doses.Biochemical kits were utilized to assess relevant indices related to blood lipid levels as well as liver and kidney function,thereby evaluating the impact of Tiaozhi Xiaoban Mixture on these parameters.Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA)was employed to measure serum inflam-mation markers influenced by Tiaozhi Xiaoban Mixture.Additionally,TUNEL staining and Western blot analysis were conducted to ex-amine the apoptotic effects of Tiaozhi Xiaoban Mixture on thoracic aorta tissue.Finally,qPCR was used to detect the expression levels of Line-HC,MALAT1,etc.,in order to evaluate how Tiaozhi Xiaoban Mixture affecting these specific RNA molecules.RESULTS Following treatment with Tiaozhi Xiaoban Mixture,the blood lipid profiles indicated that total cholesterol(TC),triglycerides(TG),and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C)were significantly down-regulated(P＜0.05,P＜0.01),while high-density lipopro-tein cholesterol(HDL-C)levels were up-regulated in the atherosclerotic rats.Moreover,serum levels of liver and kidney function markers such as aspartate aminotransferase(AST),alanine aminotransferase(ALT),blood urea nitrogen(BUN),and creatinine(Cr)exhibited down-regulation(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).Additionally,pro-inflammatory factors including interleukin-6(IL-6),interleukin-1 beta(IL-1β),tumor necrosis factor-alpha(TNF-α),high-sensitivity C-reactive protein(hs-CRP),and matrix metallopeptidase 9(MMP-9)were also reduced(P＜0.01),whereas the anti-inflammatory factor interleukin-10(IL-10)was found to be elevated(P＜0.01).Furthermore,after oral administration of Tiaozhi Xiaoban Mixture,expression levels of apoptosis-related factors NLRP3,ASC,Cleaved Caspase-1,Cleaved IL-1 β,Puma,Bax,Noxa,and MDM2 in thoracic aorta tissues from the atherosclerotic rats showed sig-nificant down-regulation(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).Notably,following treatment with Tiaozhi Xiaoban Mixture,mRNA levels of Linc-HC decreased while mRNA expression of MALAT1 increased(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).CONCLUSION Tiaozhi Xiaoban Mixture may inhibit the expression of Linc-HC and up-regulate the expression of MALAT1 to reduce the formation of atherosclerotic plaque,improve ab-normal blood lipids and liver and kidney function,alleviate inflammation and inhibit apoptosis.

As one of the modern enterprise management systems,the Occupational Health and Safety Management System(OHSMS)has garnered increasing attention.The OHSMS has undergone continuous refinement and expansion across various fields,emerging as a pivotal indicator of enterprise competitiveness.Currently,both the Association for Assessment and Accreditation of Laboratory Animal Care(AAALAC)International and the China National Accreditation Service for Conformity Assessment(CNAS)require for establishing occupational health management related to laboratory animal work.However,within the domestic laboratory animal industry,development of OHSMS is relatively lagging behind due to unfamiliarity with laws and regulations and a lack of experienced management personnel.Consequently,the OHSMS in laboratory animal institutions is still in its early stage.Drawing on the authors'practical experience in establishing OHSMS in laboratory animal institutions,this article first outlines domestic and international occupational health laws,regulations,and safety management systems for laboratory animals,as well as common occupational diseases and their associated risk factors in China.Subsequently,this article highlights key elements for the construction of OHSMS in laboratory animal institutions in areas such as establishing occupational health and safety regulations,conducting training,performing occupational health examinations for staff,monitoring on-site occupational hazard factors,implementing the"three simultaneous"system for occupational disease prevention facilities in construction projects,creating and maintaining occupational health records,developing a notification management system for occupational hazards,and formulating emergency response plans for occupational disease hazard accidents.These points are intended as a reference for professionals in the industry.

Functional dyspepsia (FD), characterized by persistent or recurrent dyspeptic symptoms without identifiable organic, systemic or metabolic causes, is an increasingly recognized global health issue. The objective of this guideline is to equip clinicians and nursing professionals with evidence-based strategies for the management and treatment of adult patients with FD using traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). The Guideline Development Group consulted existing TCM consensus documents on FD and convened a panel of 35 clinicians to generate initial clinical queries. To address these queries, a systematic literature search was conducted across PubMed, EMBASE, the Cochrane Library, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), VIP Database, China Biology Medicine (SinoMed) Database, Wanfang Database, Traditional Medicine Research Data Expanded (TMRDE), and the Traditional Chinese Medical Literature Analysis and Retrieval System (TCMLARS). The evidence from the literature was critically appraised using the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation (GRADE) approach. The strength of the recommendations was ascertained through a consensus-building process involving TCM and allopathic medicine experts, methodologists, pharmacologists, nursing specialists, and health economists, leveraging their collective expertise and empirical knowledge. The guideline comprises a total of 43 evidence-informed recommendations that span a range of clinical aspects, including the pathogenesis according to TCM, diagnostic approaches, therapeutic interventions, efficacy assessments, and prognostic considerations.
