This study using maltodextrin as raw material, 1%-5% polyvinylpyrrolidone K30 as template agent, 1%-5% ammonium bicarbonate as pore-forming agent, curcumin and ibuprofen as model drugs. Porous maltodextrin was prepared by template and pore-forming agent methods, respectively. The structure and drug delivery behavior of porous maltodextrin prepared by different technologies were comprehensively characterized. The results showed that the porous maltodextrin prepared by pore-forming agent method had larger specific surface area (6.449 4 m²·g^-1) and pore size (32.804 2 nm), which was significantly better than that by template agent method (3.670 2 m²·g^-1, 15.278 5 nm). The adsorption kinetics between porous maltodextrin prepared by pore-forming agent method and curcumin were suitable for quasi-first order adsorption kinetic model, and that between porous maltodextrin and ibuprofen were suitable for quasi-second order adsorption kinetic model. While the adsorption kinetics between porous maltodextrin prepared by template agent method and two model drugs were both suitable for the quasi-first order adsorption kinetic model. In addition, the dissolution behavior analysis showed that the porous maltodextrin prepared by the two technologies can significantly improve the dissolution behavior of insoluble drugs, and the drug release was both carried out by diffusion mechanism, which suitable for the Peppas kinetic release model, but the porous maltodextrin prepared by template agent method had a faster release rate. The change of nozzle diameter had no significant effect on the adsorption process and drug release behavior of porous maltodextrin. In conclusion, the porous maltodextrins prepared by two different technologies were both beneficial to the delivery of insoluble drugs, and the template agent method was the best for delivery of insoluble drugs. This study can provide theoretical basis for the preparation of porous particles, promote the application of porous particles in insoluble drugs, and improve the bioavailability of insoluble drugs.

Biological evidence is relatively common evidence in criminal cases,and it has strong pro-bative power because it carries DNA information for individual identification.At the scene of fire-related cases,the complex thermal environment,the escape of trapped people,the firefighting and res-cue operations,and the deliberate destruction of criminal suspects will all affect the biological evi-dence in the fire scene.Scholars at home and abroad have explored and studied the effectiveness of biological evidence identification in fire scenes,and found that the blood stains,semen stains,bones,etc.are the main biological evidence which can be easily recovered with DNA in fire scenes.In order to analyze the research status and development trend of biological evidence in fire scenes,this paper systematically sorts out the relevant research,mainly including the soot removal technology,appearance method of typical biological evidence,and possibility of identifying other biological evidence.This pa-per also prospects the next step of research direction,in order to provide reference for the identifica-tion of biological evidence and improve the value of biological evidence in fire scenes.

Objective To explore the efficacy and safety of recombinant human anti-severe acute respiratory syn-drome coronavirus 2(anti-SARS-CoV-2)monoclonal antibody injection(F61 injection)in the treatment of patients with coronavirus disease 2019(COVID-19)combined with renal damage.Methods Patients with COVID-19 and renal damage who visited the PLA General Hospital from January to February 2023 were selected.Subjects were randomly divided into two groups.Control group was treated with conventional anti-COVID-19 therapy,while trial group was treated with conventional anti-COVID-19 therapy combined with F61 injection.A 15-day follow-up was conducted after drug administration.Clinical symptoms,laboratory tests,electrocardiogram,and chest CT of pa-tients were performed to analyze the efficacy and safety of F61 injection.Results Twelve subjects(7 in trial group and 5 in control group)were included in study.Neither group had any clinical progression or death cases.The ave-rage time for negative conversion of nucleic acid of SARS-CoV-2 in control group and trial group were 3.2 days and 1.57 days(P=0.046),respectively.The scores of COVID-19 related target symptom in the trial group on the 3rd and 5th day after medication were both lower than those of the control group(both P＜0.05).According to the clinical staging and World Health Organization 10-point graded disease progression scale,both groups of subjects improved but didn't show statistical differences(P＞0.05).For safety,trial group didn't present any infusion-re-lated adverse event.Subjects in both groups demonstrated varying degrees of elevated blood glucose,elevated urine glucose,elevated urobilinogen,positive urine casts,and cardiac arrhythmia,but the differences were not statistica-lly significant(all P＞0.05).Conclusion F61 injection has initially demonstrated safety and clinical benefit in trea-ting patients with COVID-19 combined with renal damage.As the domestically produced drug,it has good clinical accessibility and may provide more options for clinical practice.

Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) combined with lower cervical fracture is often categorized into unstable fracture, with a high incidence of neurological injury and a high rate of disability and morbidity. As factors such as shoulder occlusion may affect the accuracy of X-ray imaging diagnosis, it is often easily misdiagnosed at the primary diagnosis. Non-operative treatment has complications such as bone nonunion and the possibility of secondary neurological damage, while the timing, access and choice of surgical treatment are still controversial. Currently, there are no clinical practice guidelines for the treatment of AS combined with lower cervical fracture with or without dislocation. To this end, the Spinal Trauma Group of Orthopedics Branch of Chinese Medical Doctor Association organized experts to formulate Clinical guidelines for the treatment of ankylosing spondylitis combined with lower cervical fracture in adults ( version 2024) in accordance with the principles of evidence-based medicine, scientificity and practicality, in which 11 recommendations were put forward in terms of the diagnosis, imaging evaluation, typing and treatment, etc, to provide guidance for the diagnosis and treatment of AS combined with lower cervical fracture.

Objective Viral encephalitis is an infectious disease severely affecting human health.It is caused by a wide variety of viral pathogens,including herpes viruses,flaviviruses,enteroviruses,and other viruses.The laboratory diagnosis of viral encephalitis is a worldwide challenge.Recently,high-throughput sequencing technology has provided new tools for diagnosing central nervous system infections.Thus,In this study,we established a multipathogen detection platform for viral encephalitis based on amplicon sequencing. Methods We designed nine pairs of specific polymerase chain reaction(PCR)primers for the 12 viruses by reviewing the relevant literature.The detection ability of the primers was verified by software simulation and the detection of known positive samples.Amplicon sequencing was used to validate the samples,and consistency was compared with Sanger sequencing. Results The results showed that the target sequences of various pathogens were obtained at a coverage depth level greater than 20×,and the sequence lengths were consistent with the sizes of the predicted amplicons.The sequences were verified using the National Center for Biotechnology Information BLAST,and all results were consistent with the results of Sanger sequencing. Conclusion Amplicon-based high-throughput sequencing technology is feasible as a supplementary method for the pathogenic detection of viral encephalitis.It is also a useful tool for the high-volume screening of clinical samples.

Objective To investigate the relationship and predictive value of blood urea nitrogen(BUN)levels with the risk of in-hospital mortality in patients with septic shock.Methods Clinical data of 328 patients diagnosed with septic shock from January 1,2018 to September 30,2023 in Shenzhen Second People's Hospital were retrospectively collected.The primary outcome indicator was in-hospital death in patients with septic shock.Simple logistic regression analyses was used to explore the correlation between BUN and in-hospital death in patients with septic shock;multiple logistic regression analyses model was used to explore the quantitative relationship between BUN and in-hospital death in septic shock,sensitivity analyses was utilized to test the stability of the results.Results Simple logistic regression analyses suggested that BUN was a risk factor for in-hospital mortality in patients with septic shock.Multiple logistic regression analyses showed a positive correlation between BUN and in-hospital mortality in patients with septic shock:the risk of in-hospital mortality in patients with septic shock was increased by 3.3%for every 1 mmol/L increase in BUN(OR=1.033,P<0.01);after adjusting for different vari-ables,the risk of in-hospital death increased by 2.9%(OR=1.029,P<0.05)and 3.2%(OR=1.032,P<0.05)for each 1 mmol/L increase in BUN,respectively.Sensitivity analyses further confirmed the stability of the results(OR=1.04,P<0.05).Conclusion There is a positive correlation between BUN levels and in-hospital death in patients with septic shock,and it has a predictive value for the risk of in-hospital death in patients with septic shock.

Objective To compare the efficacy of 30 g·L-1diquafosol sodium eye drops and 0.5 g·L-1 cyclospo-rine eye drops in patients with dry eye after femtosecond laser small incision lenticule extraction(SMILE).Methods A total of 37 patients(74 eyes)undergoing SMILE in Xi'an Fourth Hospital from January to February 2024 were selected as the subjects.Patients were randomly divided into the cyclosporine group(11 patients),diquafosol sodium group(16 pa-tients),and control group(10 patients)through a random number table method.There were no significant differences in the age and gender of patients in the three groups(both P＞0.05).Patients in the cyclosporine group were treated with 0.5 g·L-1 cyclosporine eye drops,twice a day,1 drop each time,for 3 months.Patients in the diquafosol sodium group were treated with 30 g·L-1 diquafosol sodium eye drops,6 times a day,1 drop each time,for 3 months.Patients in the control group were treated with sodium hyaluronate eye drops,3 times a day,1 drop each time,for 3 months,and the fre-quency of administration could be adjusted according to clinical symptoms.The visual acuity,intraocular pressure,redness scan(R-Scan),Schirmer tear test(SIT),non-invasive break-up time(NIBUT)and ocular surface disease index(OSDI)questionnaire scores were measured in all patients at 1 month and 3 months after the operation.SPSS 22.0 statistical soft-ware was used for data analysis,and visual acuity,intraocular pressure,R-Scan,SIT,NIBUT and OSDI scores were com-pared among the three groups before,1 month and 3 months after the operation.Results In the cyclosporine group,in-traocular pressures of patients at 1 month and 3 months postoperatively were significantly lower than the preoperative level;the NIBUT was significantly prolonged at 3 months after operation compared with the preoperative level;OSDI scores were significantly elevated at both 1 month and 3 months postoperatively compared with the preoperative level(all P＜0.05).In the diquafosol sodium group,intraocular pressure at 1 month and 3 months postoperatively was significantly lower than the preoperative level;the SIT at 3 months after the operation was lower than that before operation;OSDI was higher 1 month after operation than pre-operation and 3 months after operation(all P＜0.05).In the control group,intraocular pressure at 1 month and 3 months postoperatively was significantly lower than the preoperative level;the naked eye visual acuity 3 months after operation was better than the best corrected visual acuity before operation(all P＜0.05).There was no signif-icant difference in visual acuity,intraocular pressure and R-Scan among the three groups 1 month and 3 months after opera-tion(all P＞0.05).One month after the operation,SIT and NIBUT in the control group were higher than those in the cy-closporine group and diquafosol sodium group(all P＜0.05);the OSDI of diquafosol sodium group was higher than that of the cyclosporine group(P＜0.05).Conclusion Both cyclosporine eye drops and diquafosol sodium eye drops can re-lieve ocular surface discomfort after SMILE and cyclosporine eye drops are more helpful to improve tear film stability.

Objective:To explore the efficacy of adjuvant chemotherapy and adjuvant immunotherapy combined chemotherapy after radical cystectomy for muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) with high recurrence risk (pT 2 with positive lymph nodes, and pT 3-4a with or without positive lymph nodes). Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on clinical data of 217 patients with bladder cancer admitted to Tianjin Medical University Second Hospital from August 2016 to January 2022. Among them, 183 were male (84.3%) and 34 were female (15.7%), with an average age of (67.3±8.6) years old. All 217 patients underwent radical cystectomy with pelvic lymph node dissection. Based on postoperative adjuvant treatment, the patients were divided into an observation group (147 cases, 67.7%) and a treatment group (70 cases, 32.3%). The observation group and treatment group had similar demographic and pathological characteristics. The age of the observation group and treatment group was (67.4±9.0) years and (66.3±7.6) years, respectively ( P=0.14). The postoperative pathological stages T 2 with lymph node positivity were observed in 8 cases (5.4%) in the observation group and 6 cases (8.6%) in the treatment group. For stages T 3-4awith lymph node positivity, there were 34 cases (23.1%) in the observation group and 18 cases (25.7%) in the treatment group. And there were 105 cases (71.5%) in the observation group and 46 cases (65.7%) in the treatment group of stages T 3-4a without lymph node positivity, respectively( P>0.05). Tumor diameter ≥3 cm was found in 118 cases (80.3%) in the observation group and 54 cases (77.1%) in the treatment group ( P>0.05), while tumor diameter <3 cm was observed in 29 cases (19.7%) in the observation group and 16 cases (22.9%) in the treatment group ( P>0.05).In the treatment group, 36 patients (16.6%) received postoperative chemotherapy with gemcitabine (1 000 mg/m 2, days 1 and 8) and cisplatin (75 mg/m 2, days 2 to 4) (chemotherapy group), while 34 patients (15.7%) received postoperative immunotherapy with checkpoint inhibitors (intravenous infusion of sintilimab 200 mg, terlizumab 200 mg, or toripalimab 240 mg on day 1) in combination with albumin-bound paclitaxel (200 mg on day 2)(immunotherapy combined chemotherapy group). The age of the chemotherapy group and immunotherapy combined chemotherapy group was (66.8±8.4) years and (65.8±6.8) years, respectively ( P>0.05). Postoperative pathological stages T 2 with lymph node positivity were observed in 3 cases (8.3%) in the chemotherapy group and 3 cases (8.8%) in the immunotherapy combined chemotherapy group ( P>0.05). For stages T 3-4awith lymph node positivity, there were 6 cases (16.7%) in the chemotherapy group and 12 cases (35.3%) in the immunotherapy combined chemotherapy group. And there were 27 cases (75.0%) in the observation group and 19 cases (55.9%) in the treatment group of stages T 3-4a without lymph node positivity, respectively( P>0.05). Lymph node involvement was seen in 9 cases (25.0%) in the chemotherapy group and 15 cases (44.1%) in the immunotherapy combined chemotherapy group ( P>0.05). Tumor diameter ≥3 cm was found in 30 cases (83.3%) in the chemotherapy group and 10 cases (29.4%) in the immunotherapy combined chemotherapy group ( P>0.05), while tumor diameter <3 cm was observed in 6 cases (16.7%) in the chemotherapy group and 24 cases (70.6%) in the immunotherapy combined chemotherapy group ( P>0.05). Kaplan-Meier method and multivariate Cox regression test were used to analyze the overall survival (OS) at 1 and 3 years in the observation group and treatment group, as well as the disease-free survival (DFS) at 1 and 3 years in the chemotherapy group and immunotherapy combined chemotherapy group. Additionally, common adverse events were evaluated and compared between the chemotherapy group and immunotherapy combined chemotherapy group based on the criteria published by the U. S. Department of Health and Human Services. Results:The median follow-up time in this study was 18.4 (8.2, 34.7) months. The median follow-up time in the observation group and treatment group was 19.0 (8.3, 35.2) months and 17.5 (7.9, 33.2) months, respectively. The 1-year survival rate was significantly higher in the treatment group compared to the observation group (90.0% vs. 76.2%, χ2=6.92, P=0.009). Similarly, the 3-year survival rate was significantly higher in the treatment group compared to the observation group (82.9% vs. 57.8%, χ2=13.22, P<0.01). The median OS was 35.9 months in the observation group and was not reached in the treatment group, with a statistically significant difference ( HR=2.51, 95% CI 1.36-4.65, P=0.003).In the chemotherapy group and immunotherapy combined chemotherapy group, the median follow-up time was 10.7 (7.4, 22.1) months and 14.4 (6.3, 40.7) months, respectively. The 1-year disease-free survival rate was significantly higher in the immunotherapy combined chemotherapy group compared to the chemotherapy group (91.2% vs. 67.6%, χ2=4.60, P=0.032). The 3-year disease-free survival rate was significantly higher in the chemotherapy group compared to the immunotherapy combined chemotherapy group (88.2% vs. 55.6%, χ2=8.37, P=0.004). The median DFS was 27.7 months in the chemotherapy group and was not reached in the immunotherapy combined chemotherapy group, with a statistically significant difference ( HR=3.39, 95% CI 1.46-7.89, P=0.016).The treatment group had complications classified as follows: 140 cases of grade 1, 39 cases of grade 2, 8 cases of grade 3, 2 cases of grade 4, and 0 case of grade 5 adverse reactions. In the chemotherapy group and the immunotherapy combined chemotherapy group, there were both 5 cases with adverse reactions of grade 3 or higher. Specifically, in the chemotherapy group, there were 2 cases of anemia, 2 cases of decreased platelet count, and 1 case of decreased neutrophil count. In the immunotherapy combined chemotherapy group, there was 1 case of anemia, 1 case of decreased platelet count, and 2 cases of decreased neutrophil count. Additionally, there was 1 case with elevated gamma-glutamyltransferase (γ-GT) in the immunotherapy combined chemotherapy group. The incidence of adverse events of grade 3 or higher in the chemotherapy group and immunotherapy combined chemotherapy group was 13.9% and 14.7%, respectively, with no statistically significant difference( χ2=0.01, P=0.922). Conclusions:Adjuvant therapy significantly prolongs the overall survival in high risk of recurrence for MIBC patients after radical cystectomy. For patients intolerant to platinum-based chemotherapy or refusing platinum-based adjuvant chemotherapy, immunotherapy with checkpoint inhibitors combined with albumin-bound paclitaxel can be considered as an effective and well-tolerated adjuvant treatment after radical cystectomy.
