ObjectiveTo evaluate the therapeutic effect and mechanism of tendon-management and patella-movement therapeutic manipulation in the treatment of patellofemoral arthritis based on imaging evaluation. MethodsTotally 126 patients with patellofemoral arthritis were recruited and divided into a treatment group and a control group according to a randomised numerical table. The control group received routine sodium hyaluronate injection once a week for a total of 5 times； the treatment group received tendon-management and patella-movement therapeutic manipulation three times a week for four weeks. We compared the Western Ontario and McMaster University osteoarthritis index score （WOMAC）， visual analogue scale （VAS）， imaging indicators including patellar external displacement distance， patellofemoral fit angle， lateral patellofemoral angle， and patellofemoral index， and overall effectiveness evaluation between the two groups before and one week after treatment. ResultsThe total effective rate of the treatment group （45/54， 83.33%） was significantly higher than that of the control group （36/54， 66.67%，P＜0.05）. One week after the end of treatment， the VAS scores and WOMAC scores of both groups were lower than those before treatment in the same group （P＜0.01）， and the patellofemoral index and patellofemoral fit angle of the treatment group decreased compared with that of the control group （P＜0.05）. Compared with the pre-treatment， the distance of patellar external displacement， patellofemoral index， and patellofemoral fit angle decreased in the treatment group 1 week after the end of treatment， and the patellofemoral fit angle decreased in the control group （P＜0.05）. ConclusionThe therapeutic manipulation of tendon-management and patella-movement can correct the degree of patellar external displacement， alleviate joint pain symptoms， improve joint function， and achieve the goal of treating patellofemoral arthritis.

Objective: To investigate the efficacy and safety of intelligent temperature-pressure-controlled flexible ureteroscopy combined with negative-pressure suction sheath lithotripsy in the treatment of upper urinary tract stones ≤2.5 cm. Methods: The clinical data of 225 patients with ≤2.5 cm upper urinary tract stones treated with this surgical method in our department during Aug. 2023 and Jul. 2024 were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were divided into the dual-control group (n=36) and conventional group (n=189) according to whether or not the intelligent temperature and pressure control device was used during operation. In the dual-control group，the intraoperative temperature and pressure in the renal pelvis were monitored and controlled in real time by the temperature and pressure sensors distributed at the end of the ureteral soft lens. The perioperative parameters，stone-removal rate，complication rate and renal function were compared between the two groups. Results: All operations were successfully completed in both groups. The postoperative procalcitonin (PCT) level [(22.75±5.85) ng/L vs. (29.08±6.60) ng/L，P=0.001]，difference in the white blood cell (WBC) level [(0.24±2.12)×10 cells/L vs. (1.19±2.17)×10 cells/L，P=0.016]，incidence of fever (2.8% vs. 16.9%，P=0.028) and overall complication rate (5.6% vs. 19.6%，P=0.042) were significantly lower in the dual-control group than in the conventional group，while the stone-clearance rate was slightly higher (88.9% vs. 82.5%，P=0.346)，with no significant difference. Conclusion: For upper urinary tract stones ≤2.5 cm，intelligent temperature-pressure-controlled ureteroscopy combined with negative-pressure suction sheath lithotripsy has a satisfactory stone-removal rate and a low rate of complications，which is worthy of clinical promotion.

Objective To explore the effects of 1 800 MHz electromagnetic radiation(EMR)on cognitive function of 3xTg-AD and 57C mice,providing a theoretical basis for the potential impacts of electromagnetic radiation on the human body.Methods A total of 12 3xTg-AD transgenic mice and 12 wild-type C57 mice were selected as research subjects.The one-month-old mice were divided into four groups:RF WT,Control WT,RF AD,and Control AD,with 6 mice in each group.The 1 800 MHz EMR exposure experiments were conducted from 20:00 to 8:00 the next day for a duration of 5 months.After the exposure,a water maze test was conducted to evaluate the effects of EMR on spatial learning and memory abilities of 3xTg AD mice,along with measurements of body weight,brain weight,and calculation of the brain-to-body ratio.Finally,Western Blot technique was used to measure the levels of APP,NR1,and NR2A in hippocampal tissue to analyze effects of 1 800 MHz EMR on the cognitive function of 3xTg AD mice.Results Under 1 800 MHz EMR exposure,there were no statistically significant differences in Morris water maze spatial learning ability among the four groups(P>0.05).However,longer escape time,greater swimming distances,and more crossings of target quadrant were exhibited in the RF AD group compared to the other groups(P<0.05).Western Blot results showed that the APP protein levels in 3xTg AD mice was higher than those in C57 mice(P<0.05).The expression levels of NR1 protein in the WT group was higher than those in the AD group(P<0.05);in the AD group,the RF AD group had higher levels than the Control WT group(P<0.05),and the NR2A protein levels in the Control WT group were higher than in the other groups(P<0.05).Conclusion Prolonged exposure to 1 800 MHz EMR can affect the learning and cognitive function of both 3xTg AD and C57 mice.

ObjectiveTo analyze and validate how Jiawei Sanpian decoction treats migraines by integrating network pharmacology, molecular docking technology, and experimental studies.MethodUsing network pharmacology, the chemical components and core target proteins of the Jiawei Sanpian decoction were analyzed. Key chemical components were docked with core targets using molecular docking, and the results were visualized. Nitroglycerin was injected into the dorsal cervical region to establish a rat migraine model. Finally, experiments were conducted to verify the effects of Jiawei Sanpian on related pathways and targets.ResultsFour notable chemical components were identified, namely, β-sitosterol, quercetin, mairin, and kaempferol. Five representative targets were identified, namely, insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1), matrix metallopeptidase 2 (MMP-2), interleukin-2 (IL-2), superoxide dismutase 2 (SOD2), and inducible nitric oxide synthase (NOS2). Molecular docking results revealed that the minimum binding energies between the four chemical components and the five targets were below −5 kcal/mol, indicating favorable binding activity. Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) results demonstrated the efficacy of high-dose Jiawei Sanpian decoction in treating migraine by targeting IGF-1, IL-2, MMP-2, and SOD2 (P .001). Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) results demonstrated the effectiveness of high-dose Jiawei Sanpian decoction in treating migraine by targeting IGF-1, IL-2, MMP-2, and SOD2 (P .001). After using erastin, the therapeutic effect of Jiawei Sanpian decoction declined.ConclusionThis study provides initial insights into the complex and multilayered therapeutic mechanisms of Jiawei Sanpian decoction in treating migraine, primarily through its diverse components, targets, and pathways. These findings indicate that Jiawei Sanpian decoction may exert its effects mainly through processes linked to the mitochondrial inflammatory pathway, thereby providing therapeutic benefits for migraine.

OBJECTIVE To establish a clinical pharmaceutical pathway of anti-infective therapy for high-risk populations of antibiotic-associated encephalopathy （AAE）， and analyze its application effects. METHODS Clinical pharmacists developed the “AAE High-Risk Population Screening Form” and “Antibiotic AAE Risk Comparison Form” based on literature and expert opinions， and established the “Clinical Pharmaceutical Pathway of Anti-infective Treatment for AAE High-Risk Population” in our hospital. A prospective， non-randomized controlled study was conducted from May 2023 to April 2024， including 50 cases in the observation group and 50 cases in the control group among patients with pulmonary infections admitted to the Dept. of Internal Medicine in our hospital. The observation group was involved in the development of an anti-infective treatment following the clinical pharmaceutical pathway by clinical pharmacists， while the control group received routine anti-infective treatment by clinical physicians. The occurrence of AAE， the rational antibiotic drug use， and the effectiveness of initial anti-infective treatment in the two groups were observed， and the intervention measures and outcomes of AAE cases were summarized. RESULTS The anti-infective treatment clinical pharmaceutical pathway for AAE high-risk population was preliminarily established in our hospital. The analysis of the application effects showed that there was 1 case of AAE in the observation group and 8 cases in the control group， with a significantly lower incidence of AAE in the observation group than in the control group； the rational antibiotic drug use and the effectiveness of initial anti-infective treatment in the observation group were both significantly superior to those in the control group （P＜0.05）. Drug withdrawal and dressing change were the preferred effective intervention measures for AAE， and encephalopathy treatment drugs could be used as auxiliary measures for symptom relief. Timely and effective intervention was conducive to rapid symptom relief， with a total improvement rate of AAE of 88.89%. CONCLUSIONS The anti-infective treatment clinical pharmaceutical pathway for AAE high-risk population can effectively prevent the occurrence of AAE as well as contribute to promoting rational drug use and the effectiveness of initial anti-infection plans and strengthening treatment outcomes.

Objective To investigate the relationship between polymorphism of resistin(RETN)gene and metabolic associated fatty liver disease(MAFLD)in type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM)patients in middle and high altitude areas.Methods A total of 400 patients with T2DM in Qinghai area were recruited and divided into simple T2DM group(T2DM,n=200)and T2DM combined with MAFLD group(T2DM+ MAFLD,n=200)according to liver ultrasonography.Healthy individuals confirmed by physical examination were selected as the normal control group(NC,n=180).Plasma resistin levels were measured by ELISA.The polymorphism of RETN-420C/G and +299G/A genes were detected by PCR sequencing.Results By comparing the polymorphism of RETN-420C/G gene in each group,it was found that the frequencies of G/G genotype and G allele frequency in T2DM+MAFLD group were higher than those in NC group and T2DM group(P<0.05),while the frequencies of C/C genotype and C allele frequency were lower than those in NC group and T2DM group(P<0.05).The risk of MAFLD increased by 1.571,2.126 and 1.537 times respectively in T2DM patients with C/G,G/G genotype and G allele.Logistic regression analysis showed that G/G genotype was a risk factor for MAFLD in T2DM patients.By comparing the polymorphism of RETN+299G/A gene in each group,it was found that A allele frequency in T2DM+MAFLD group was higher than that in NC group and T2DM group,while G allele frequency was lower than that in NC group and T2DM group(P<0.05).The allele A increased the risk of MAFLD in T2DM patients by 1.432 times compared to allele G.Conclusion RETN gene-420C/G locus G/G genotype increases the risk of T2DM combined with MAFLD in middle and high altitudeareas.

Objective To explore the changes of serum angiopoietin-like protein 4(ANGPTL4)and NOD-like receptor protein 3(NLRP3)levels after traumatic brain injury(TBI)and their diagnostic value for sec-ondary massive cerebral infarction.Methods A total of 100 TBI patients admitted to the hospital from Au-gust 2019 to August 2021 were enrolled as the TBI group,meantime,100 healthy people in the hospital were enrolled as the control group.The serum levels of ANGPTL4 and NLRP3 were detected by enzyme-linked im-munosorbent assay(ELISA).The clinical characteristics of TBI patients with and without secondary massive cerebral infarction were compared.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was applied to analyze the serum levels of ANGPTL4 and NLRP3 on their diagnostic value for TBI patients with secondary massive cere-bral infarction.Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was applied to analyze the factors affecting the occur-rence of secondary massive cerebral infarction in TBI patients.Results The serum ANGPTL4 level in TBI group was lower than that in the control group,and the serum NLRP3 level was higher than that in the con-trol group(P<0.05).There were obvious differences in proportion of brain hernia,proportion of subarach-noid hemorrhage,serum levels of ANGPTL4 and NLRP3 between patients with secondary massive cerebral infarction and patients without secondary massive cerebral infarction(P<0.05).ROC curve analysis showed that the area under the curve(AUC)of serum ANGPTL4 and NLRP3 in diagnosing secondary massive cere-bral infarction in TBI patients was 0.792 and 0.812 respectively,with sensitivity of 77.80%and 83.30%re-spectively,and specificity of 86.60%and 64.60%respectively.The sensitivity,the specificity and AUC of the combined detection were 83.30%,82.90%and 0.867 respectively.Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that serum NLRP3 level was a risk factor for TBI patients with secondary massive cerebral infarction(P<0.05).After treatment,it was found that serum ANGPTL4 level increased and NLRP3 level decreased in TBI patients(P<0.05).Conclusion The serum level of ANGPTL4 in TBI patients decreases,while the level of NLRP3 increases,and the level of ANGPTL4 in the serum of patients with secondary massive cerebral in-farction decreases and the level of NLRP3 increases,both of them are of great significance in the diagnosis of secondary massive cerebral infarction in TBI patients.

Objective:This study aims to explore the prevalence of hepatitis E virus (HEV) infection in patients and the screening value of serological indicators for HEV infection patients.Methods:Retrospective analysis was conducted on 97 440 cases of anti-HEV IgM and IgG simultaneously tested in two Beijing hospitals from January 1, 2018 to August 31, 2023. Among them, there were 61 005 males and 36 435 females, with an average age of 51.65±13.05 years old. According to the positivity of anti HEV specific antibodies, they were divided into anti-HEV IgM positive group (3 588 cases), anti-HEV IgG positive group (18 083 cases), and anti-HEV antibody negative group (78 892 cases). Results of HEV RNA, liver function, AFP, PIVKA-Ⅱ and PT were collected, and their basic clinical information were recorded. The prevalence of HEV infection in patients, as well as the relationship between the positivity of anti-HEV specific antibodies and the patient′s age group, HEV RNA, and clinical characteristics were analyzed.Results:Among 97 440 patients who tested anti-HEV IgM and IgG simultaneously, the positivity rate of anti-HEV IgM was 3.68% (3 588/97 440), and was 18.56% for anti-HEV IgG (18 083/97 440). The overall positivity rates of anti-HEV IgM in two Beijing hospitals from 2018 to 2023 were 2.51%, 2.53%, 3.02%, 4.59%, 5.72%, and 4.26% ( χ2=1 401.73, P<0.001), while the positivity rates of anti-HEV IgG were 12.56%, 12.32%, 12.85%, 22.65%, 27.42%, and 26.66% ( χ2=1 058.29, P<0.001). These rates showed a gradual increase until 2023 when a decline was observed. The positivity rates of anti-HEV IgM (2.28%, 3.60%, 4.47%) ( χ2=89.62, P<0.001) and IgG (4.71%, 17.86%, 25.94%) ( χ2=2 017.32, P<0.001) increased with age in patients who aged 1-30, >30-60, and over 60 years old. The age and ALB values of patients in the anti-HEV IgM positive group were lower than the IgG-positive group, while the proportion of males, TBIL, ALT, AFP and PT values were higher than the IgG-positive group, and the differences were statistically significance ( P<0.05). Furthermore, patients in both the anti-HEV IgM and IgG positive groups had higher age, male proportion, TBIL, ALT, AFP, PIVKA-Ⅱ, and PT values than the anti-HEV negative group. Additionally, both groups had lower ALB values than the anti-HEV negative group, all of which were statistically significant ( P<0.05). 2 162 HEV infected patients were grouped based on HEV RNA positivity. The proportion of anti-HEV IgM single positive, IgG single positive, IgM+IgG double positive, and antibody negative patients in the HEV RNA positive group were 5.42% (18/332), 3.62% (12/332), 90.36% (300/332), and 0.60% (2/332), respectively. Among them, the proportion of anti-HEV IgM+IgG double positive patients in the HEV RNA positive group was higher than that in the HEV RNA negative group ( χ2=302.87, P<0.001), while the proportion of anti-HEV IgG single positive ( χ2=174.36, P<0.001) and anti-HEV antibody negative patients ( χ2=59.28, P<0.001) were lower than that in the HEV RNA negative group, both of which were statistically significant ( P<0.001). In addition, the positive rates of HEV RNA in anti-HEV IgM positive, IgG positive, and antibody negative patients were 29.23% (318/1 088), 17.59% (312/1 774), and 0.65% (2/306), respectively. Conclusion:The HEV infection rate among patients declined in 2023. HEV infection is age-related, with older individuals being more susceptible. Abnormal liver function and jaundice were commonly observed during HEV infection. It is crucial to note that the absence of anti-HEV specific antibodies cannot rule out HEV infection; therefore, additional testing for HEV RNA and/or HEV Ag is necessary for accurate diagnosis.

Objective:To analyze the level and influencing factors of nurses′ proactive career behavior, problem-solving coping strategies and organizational identification, and to explore the relationship among them.Methods:This was a cross-sectional survey. A total of 536 nurses from Cangzhou Central Hospital, Luanzhou People′s Hospital, the Second Affiliated Hospital of Xingtai Medical College, People′s Hospital of Qiu County, Hebei Province in November 2023 were selected by convenience sampling method and investigated by general data questionnaire, Proactive Career Behavior Scale, Career Coping Strategies Scale and Organizational Identification Scale. The mediation effect was analyzed by AMOS 24.0 structural equation model.Results:Finally, 495 valid questionnaires were collected. There were 432 females and 63 males, 170 cases aged<31 years old, 256 cases aged 31-40 years old, and 69 cases aged>40 years old. The score of nurses′ proactive career behavior was (51.28 ± 9.86) points, problem-solving coping strategies was (16.25 ± 2.81) points, and organizational identification was (19.00 ± 4.84) points. The results of single factor analysis showed that nurses′ proactive career behavior was affected by age, title, department and salary satisfaction( F values were 2.20-24.44, all P<0.05), problem-solving coping strategies was affected by title, department and salary satisfaction ( F=5.72, 2.75, 21.30, all P<0.01), organizational identification was affected by salary satisfaction ( F=23.22, P<0.01). Problem-solving coping strategies, organizational identification were positively associated with proactive career behavior( r=0.786, 0.722, both P<0.01). Problem-solving coping strategies had a partial mediating effect between organizational identification and proactive career behavior( β=0.432, P<0.01), and the mediating effect accounted for 64.48% of the total effect. Conclusions:There is still room for improvement of nurses′ proactive career behavior, problem-solving strategies, and organizational identification. Nursing managers should pay attention to nurses′ job advantage of different age, title and department, and improve salary satisfaction to stimulate their work potential, and improve their organizational identification, guide them to adopt problem-solving strategies in coping with occupational stress, so as to promote the development of proactive career behavior.
