Objective To explore the active monitoring strategies for hypoglycemia in hospitalized dia-betic patients,as well as their clinical symptom characteristics and influencing factors.Methods A retrospec-tive search was conducted on all inpatients in a tertiary hospital in 2023.The hospital's electronic medical re-cord system was manually retrieved through the inpatient numbers of the patients.Adult inpatients with dia-betes who experienced hypoglycemia were included as the research subjects,and the general conditions and possible hypoglycemia-related risk factors were collected.Embed the hypoglycemic electronic trigger program in China Hospital Pharmacovigilance System(CHPS),reviewed the original medical records of patients with positive trigger triggering,and calculated the positive predictive value(PPV).Searched for the number of hy-poglycemic adverse reaction cases voluntarily reported by this hospital during the same period from National Adverse Reaction Monitoring System and compared with the actual number of hypoglycemic cases discovered.Patients with suspected drug-induced hypoglycemia were divided into the symptomatic group and the asymp-tomatic group based on whether they presented hypoglycemia-related symptoms.Multivariate logistic regres-sion analysis was applied to analyze the influencing factors.Results A total of 1 001 adult hospitalized diabet-ic patients with hypoglycemia were included in the study.Among them,725 cases were suspected of drug-in-duced hypoglycemia,and 495 cases were suspected of hypoglycemia caused by drug interactions.After manual review,131 cases of drug-induced hypoglycemia patients had clinical symptoms,and hypoglycemic adverse re-action events should be reported,PPV of this trigger for symptomatic hypoglycemia was 18.1%(131/725).However,the number of hypoglycemic adverse reactions spontaneously reported through National Adverse Reaction Monitoring System by this hospital during the same period was 4 cases,and the reporting rate was only 3.1%(4/131).Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that aging and grade 2 hypoglycemia were risk factors for the occurrence of related symptoms in patients with suspected drug-induced hypoglycemia(P<0.05),while surgery,type 2 glucosuria,unclassified diabetes,and the use of insulin secretagogues were protective factors(P<0.05).Conclusion Drug-induced hypoglycemia dominates among hospitalized diabetic patients,and age,hypoglycemia grade,inpatient department using insulin secretagogues,diabetes diagnosis and classification are closely related to the occurrence of clinical hypoglycemia-related symptoms.Active monito-ring through CHPS can effectively increase the detection rate and reporting rate of hypoglycemic adverse e-vents in hospitalized diabetic patients.

This consensus was developed by the Orthodontic Society of the Chinese Stomatological Association to provide a systematic, scientific, and practical guideline for informed consent in orthodontic care. Orthodontic treatment is typically lengthy, highly individualized, and involves multiple factors such as growth and development, occlusal function, and facial esthetics. Rapid technological advances and diverse risk profiles make the traditional reliance on orthodontist experience or institutional templates insufficient to ensure patients′ full understanding and autonomous decision-making. To address this, the expert panel conducted extensive reviews of domestic and international guidelines, analyzed representative dispute cases, and performed multicenter patient-clinician surveys. Using a multi-round Delphi method, the group established a standardized informed consent framework covering the initial consultation, treatment, and retention phases. The consensus emphasizes that informed consent is not only a fundamental legal and ethical requirement but also a key step in building trust, improving patient compliance, and enhancing treatment satisfaction. Orthodontists should clearly and comprehensively explain treatment plans, potential risks, uncertainties, and associated costs, while respecting the autonomy of patients or guardians, and maintain continuous communication and dynamic evaluation throughout the treatment process. The release of this consensus provides unified and authoritative guidance for clinical orthodontics, helping to standardize informed consent, enhance its transparency, safeguard patient rights, reduce medical risks, and promote high-quality, sustainable development of orthodontic practice.

Yes-associated protein (YAP), the key transcriptional co-factor and downstream effector of the Hippo pathway, has emerged as one of the primary regulators of neural as well as glial cells. It has been detected in various glial cell types, including Schwann cells and olfactory ensheathing cells in the peripheral nervous system, as well as radial glial cells, ependymal cells, Bergmann glia, retinal Müller cells, astrocytes, oligodendrocytes, and microglia in the central nervous system. With the development of neuroscience, understanding the functions of YAP in the physiological or pathological processes of glia is advancing. In this review, we aim to summarize the roles and underlying mechanisms of YAP in glia and glia-related neurological diseases in an integrated perspective.

Objective To investigate the effect and mechanism of a high uric acid environment on cataract formation by rat lens ex-vivo culture model.Methods The lenses harvested from adult Sprague Dawley rats were cultured in a high uric acid environment in vitro.The lenses were divided into the blank control group(15 eyes)and the uric acid treatment group(15 eyes).The lenses in the uric acid treatment group were treated with M-199 medium with 800 μmol·L-1 uric acid and lenses in the blank control group were cultured with M-199 medium without uric acid for 7 days.The turbidity of the lenses of rats in the two groups was observed by optical microscope.The deposition of urate in the lenses of rats in the two groups was detected by the Gomori hexamine silver method.The senescence of lens cells in the two groups was measured by SA-[3-gal staining.Lens cell apoptosis in the two groups was detected by the TUNEL method.Results The opacifica-tion in lenses of the uric acid treatment group occurred on the 5th day and the opacification grade significantly increased on the 7th day,with opacification grades being significantly different from those in the blank control group(both P<0.05).In the blank control group,the lens epithelial cells were arranged neatly with no urate deposition,a few blue-stained lens epi-thelial cells and no obvious positive cells.In the uric acid treatment group,the arrangement of the lens epithelial was disor-dered in the equatorial part of the lens and under the anterior capsule,with black-brown urate crystals around the lens,more blue-stained lens epithelial cells and a small number of positive cells.In the high uric acid environment,urate crystals deposited under the capsular membrane of the lens,the surrounding lens epithelial cells were senescent,and a small num-ber of lens epithelial cells died.Conclusion A high uric acid environment can steadily and effectively induce cataract formation in the rat lens ex-vivo culture model.The mechanism may be related to senescence and apoptosis of lens epitheli-al cells induced by uric acid.

Objective:To investigate the specific method, efficacy and safety of intrathecal baclofen (ITB) in the treatment of moderate and severe spasticity.Methods:The clinical features, response to ITB trial, clinical outcomes and treatment-related complications after baclofen pump implantation surgery were retrospectively analyzed in patients with moderate to severe spasticity who received ITB treatment in Hong Kong University Shenzhen Hospital from August 2022 to August 2023.Results:The study included 22 patients with moderate to severe spasticity, of whom 18 patients (81.8%) were effective in ITB trial. For these patients with effective trial, the lowest mean Modified Ashworth Scale (MAS) score of lower extremity muscle groups after ITB bolus injection was decreased significantly compared with the baseline mean value before injection (1.29±0.81 vs 3.31±1.18 , t=11.364, P<0.001), and the M/H amplitude ratio of soleus H-reflex at 4 hours after ITB bolus injection was significantly higher than the baseline value (9.61±4.66 vs 3.83±2.69, t=7.780, P<0.001). Among the 18 patients with effective ITB trial, 10 patients received baclofen pump implantation surgery with the informed consent of the patients or their guardians. Compared with the 8 patients without surgery, the baseline mean MAS score of lower extremity muscle groups of the 10 patients who received surgery was higher (3.71±1.06 vs 2.83±1.16, F=5.645, P<0.05), the maximum reduction of mean MAS score of lower extremity muscle groups of the 10 patients who received surgery was greater (2.61±0.99 vs 1.30±0.64, F=20.696, P<0.001). In 10 patients who received baclofen pump implantation surgery, the mean MAS score of lower limb muscle groups was significantly decreased in the first and sixth months after surgery compared with the baseline mean value before surgery (1.64±0.91, 1.16±0.89 and 3.71±1.06, F=39.946, P<0.001). Among them, 2 patients were followed up to 12 months after surgery, 2 patients were followed up to 18 months after surgery, and the mean MAS score of their lower limb muscle groups showed continuous improvement, and 1 patient with cerebral palsy combined with lower urinary tract hyperactive syndrome also showed significant improvement of urgent urinary incontinence after surgery. Up to the last follow-up, the daily dose of baclofen in 10 patients receiving baclofen pump implantation was (143.60±96.24) μg, and no treatment-related complications occurred. Conclusions:ITB can effectively relieve spasticity symptoms and other related neurological dysfunction in patients with moderate and severe spasticity, and the efficacy can be maintained for a long time, and treatment-related complications are rare. Preoperative ITB trial is helpful to screen out patients more suitable for baclofen pump implantation. Patients with higher grade of spasticity at baseline and better efficacy of ITB trial are more suitable for baclofen pump implantation. The soleus H reflex can effectively reflect the change of stretch reflex of lower limb muscle groups in patients with spasticity treated by ITB, and can be used to evaluate the treatment effect of ITB.

OBJECTIVE To establish a quantitative analysis of multi-components by single marker (QAMS) method based on a variety of internal reference substances for the content determination of 6 components in Jinlian qingre granules, such as mangiferin, 2″-O-β-L-galactopyranosylorientin, orientin, veratric acid, vitexin, harpagoside. METHODS The determination was performed on Agilent Eclipse Plus C18 column with mobile phase consisted of acetonitrile-0.1% phosphoric acid solution (gradient elution) at the flow rate of 1 mL/min. The column temperature was 30 ℃, and the detection wavelength was set at 270 nm. Taking orientin, vitexin and 2″-O-β-L-galactopyranosylorientin as internal references, the relative correction factors (RCF) of the other 5 components to be determined and internal substances were determined by QAMS. The contents of 6 components in 21 batches of Jinlian qingre granules were calculated and then compared with the results of the external standard method. RESULTS The contents of mangiferin, 2″-O-β-L-galactopyranosylorientin, orientin, veratric acid, vitexin and harpagoside in 21 batches of samples were determined by QAMS in the range of 0.234-0.516, 1.804-2.270, 2.143-2.606, 0.190-0.223, 0.594-0.782, 0.080-0.152 mg/g; the contents of them determined by external standard method were 0.235-0.523, 1.798-2.265, 2.137-2.599, 0.190-0.224, 0.597-0.786, 0.077-0.151 mg/g, respectively. The percentage difference between the results measured by the two methods should not exceed 4.00%. CONCLUSIONS QAMS has been constructed for the simultaneous determination of 6 components in Jinlian qingre granules based on a variety of internal reference substances. The results obtained by this method are not significantly different from those obtained by the external standard method, and can be used for the quality control of Jinlian qingre granules.
