OBJECTIVE To establish HPLC fingerprint of Guzhecuoshang capsules, and its quality was evaluated by chemical pattern recognition. METHODS The HPLC-DAD method was used to establish the fingerprint of Guzhecuoshang capsules. The main chromatographic peaks were confirmed and assigned, and finally analyzed them through cluster analysis(CA), principal component analysis(PCA) and orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis(OPLS-DA) models. RESULTS The similarity of 75 batches of Guzhecuoshang capsules was covered from 0.685 to 0.986. A total of 26 common peaks were marked, and 6 components were identified respectively: hydroxysafflor yellow A(peak 1), ferulic acid(peak 6), aloeemodin(peak 15), emodin(peak 19), chrysophanol(peak 24) and physcion(peak 26). CA could be divided into five categories. The PCA and OPLS-DA screened out 13 main differentially contributing components, and it was indicated by the attribution of components that controlling the quality of safflower play an important role in ensuring the stability of the quality of Guzhecuoshang capsules. CONCLUSION The established HPLC fingerprint is relatively stable and reliable, which can basically reflect the characteristics of the chemical components in the compound, and can also provide a reference for the quality control and standard improvement of Guzhecuoshang capsules.

Objective:To investigate the application effect of population/patient, intervention/exposure, comparison/control, and outcome (PICO) principles based on evidence-based medicine in case reports of residents in operative dentistry and endodontics.Methods:A total of 56 residents in Department of Conservative Dentistry and Endodontics in Hospital of Stomatology, Sun Yat-sen University, were selected and randomly divided into experimental group and control group, with 28 residents in each group. The residents in the experimental group were guided by the teachers to apply PICO principles in preparing case reports, and those in the control group were guided by the teachers to prepare traditional case reports. The two groups were compared in terms of the language expression of case reports, the completeness of case records, the rationality and advancement of the diagnosis and treatment regimen, and the logicality and scientificity of discussion, and a questionnaire survey was performed for both groups. SPSS 24.0 software was used to perform the descriptive statistical analysis, the t-test, and the chi-square test. Results:The experimental group had a significantly higher mean score of case report than the control group in department examination [(89.25±3.24) vs. (86.32±3.55), t=3.23, P=0.002], especially the score of the logicality and scientificity of discussion [(27.25±0.16) vs. (23.78±0.36), t=8.77, P<0.001]. The questionnaire survey showed that the experimental group had a significant increase in the frequency of participating in case reports ( P=0.035). Conclusions:The application of PICO principles can enhance the overall quality of case reports by residents and improve their enthusiasm in participating in case reports in department of operative dentistry and endodontics.

Objective To investigate the relationship between single nucleotide polymorphisms(SNPs)in the eNOS gene and genetic susceptibility to systemic lupus erythematosus(SLE)in Hainan.Methods Blood samples were collected from SLE patients(SLE group,n=214)and healthy controls(control group,n=214)from January 2020 to December 2022 at the First Affiliated Hospital of Hainan Medical College and Hainan Provincial People's Hospital.The bases of eNOS gene rs3918188,rs1799983 and rs1007311 loci in each group were detected by SNaPshot sequencing technology.Logistic regression was used to analyze the correlation between genotypes,alleles and gene models(dominant model,recessive model,and overdominant model)of the above 3 target loci of the eNOS gene and genetic susceptibility to SLE.Haplotype analysis was conducted using HaploView 4.2 software to investigate the relationship between haploid and genetic susceptibility to SLE at each site.Results The results of logistic regression analysis revealed that the CC genotype and the C allele at rs3918188 locus were risk factors for genetic susceptibility to SLE(CC vs.AA:OR=2.449,P<0.05;C vs.A:OR=2.133,P<0.001).In recessive model at rs3918188 locus,CC genotype carriers had an increased risk of SLE development compared with AA+AC genotype carriers(OR=2.774,P<0.001).In contrast,in overdominant model at this locus,AC genotype carriers had a decreased risk of SLE occurrence compared with AA+CC genotype carriers(OR=0.385,P<0.001).In addition,polymorphisms of rs1799983 and rs1007311 were not associated with susceptibility to SLE in genotype,allele type and the 3 genetic models(P>0.05).Haplotype analysis revealed a strong linkage disequilibrium between the rs1007311 and rs1799983 loci of the eNOS gene,but no significant correlation was found between haplotype and genetic susceptibility to SLE(P>0.05).Conclusion The CC genotype and C allele at rs3918188 locus of eNOS gene may be risk factors for SLE in Hainan,while the risk of SLE occurrence is reduced in carriers of AC genotype under the overdominant model.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.

Objective The relationship between parasitic infections and cancer has become a research hotpot.Although reports of single intestinal protozoan infection in gastrointestinal cancer patients,co-infections are rare.To investigate co-infections of intestinal protozoa in gastrointestinal cancer patients.Methods The DNA of 195 fecal specimens was amplified using nested PCR and sequenced for the presence of Pentatrichomonas hominis,Giardia duodenalis,Cryptosporidium parvum,Blastocystis hominis,Dientamoeba fragilis,and Enterocytozoon bieneusi.Results An overall infection rate of 48.72％(95/195),with 23 cases(24.21％)co-infected with two parasites,three cases(3.16％)co-infected with three parasites.Additionally,67 cases(70.52％)were infected with one protozoa,including 56 cases with Pentatrichomonas hominis,one with Blastocystis hominis,nine with Cryptosporidium parvum,and one case with Dientamoeba fragilis.No infection with Enterocytozoon bieneusi was detected.Conclusion The results indicated a high rate of intestinal protozoan co-infection among gastrointestinal cancer patients.Through one-way ANOVA analysis,it was observed that cases of individual infection with P.hominis were significantly higher compared to those of co-infection with two or three types of protozoa containing P.hominis(P=0.0022)and cases of co-infection with three types of protozoa(P=0.0019).However,no significant difference in the infection rates was observed between two and three types of protozoa(P=0.2775),suggesting that cases of single infection with P.hominis were higher than cases of co-infection with two or more types of protozoa in gastrointestinal cancer patients.BLAST and single nucleotide polymorphism analysis revealed that gene sequences of different infected protozoa,except for a few with 100％homology to the GenBank reference sequence,exhibited varying degrees of base mutations,insertions,or loss at different loci.This study offers crucial insights for understanding the etiology,diagnosis,and prevention of gastrointestinal cancer.

Objective: To analyze the drug resistance and multilocus sequence typing of five types of diarrheagenic Escherichia coli (DEC) isolated from diarrhea outpatients of diarrhea comprehensive monitoring designated hospital in Qingpu District, Shanghai City from 2015 to 2019. Methods: From January 2015 to December 2019, five types of DEC, isolated and identified from diarrhea outpatient cases' anal swabs of the Qingpu branch of Zhongshan Hospital were collected to determine the minimal inhibitory concentration by using the micro broth dilution susceptibility test. The strains, resistant to the third-generation cephalosporins or carbapenems, or producing ESBLs, were selected based on the results of sensitivity tests and determined by WGS. The MLST typing of DEC was analyzed based on the WGS technology and the minimum spanning tree was constructed by BioNumerics 7.6 software to analyze the local dominant flora. Results: A total of 513 strains of DEC were detected and isolated from 4 494 anal swabs, with a detection rate of 11.42%. About 500 strains were tested for drug sensitivity to nine antibiotics in four classes, including 330 strains of enterotoxigenic E.coli (ETEC), 72 strains of enteroaggregative E.coli (EAEC), 95 strains of enteropathogenic E.coli (EPEC), 1 strain of enterohemorrhagic E.coli (EHEC), and 2 strains of enteroinvasive E.coli (EIEC). From 2015 to 2019, the resistance rate of cefotaxime-clavulanic acid was significantly different (P<0.05). The resistance rate of virulence types of DEC to nalixic acid was significantly different (P<0.05). About 71 strains of DEC were determined by WGS, and 77 drug-resistant genes were detected. Strains were classified into 32 ST subtypes, with the dominant genotypes being ST-1491 (29.6%, 21/71) and ST-10 Complex (23.9%, 17/71). All ST-1491 produced ESBLs, which were bla_CTX-M gene mutant strains. The dominant type of ST-10 complex was ST-218 (35.3%, 6/17). In addition, 8 strains of EAEC, 14 strains of EPEC and 49 strains of ETEC were classified into 7, 14 and 18 ST subtypes, respectively. Conclusion: The drug resistance of DEC strains from the diarrhea outpatient case of Qingpu District is serious. The ST types of EAEC and EPEC are highly polymorphic. The dominant ST types of DEC are basically consistent with the common genotypes in southeast China.
