OBJECTIVE To screen a single matrix， prepare dissolving microneedles of Pterocarya hupehensis total flavonoids（PHTF-MN）， and characterize it while evaluating its analgesic effects.METHODS Using microneedle morphology and puncture rate as evaluation indicators， the matrix was screened from polyvinyl alcohol （PVA）， polyvinylpyrrolidone K30 （PVP K30）， PVP K90， and sodium hyaluronate with relative molecular weights of 15 000 and 60 000 （HA 1.5w and HA 6w ）. PHTF-MN was prepared by the layer-by-layer casting method with the selected matrix， and the appearance and morphology， total flavonoid content， mechanical properties， puncture performance， dissolution properties， and drug release behavior of the obtained PHTF-MN were characterized. Using male BALB/c mice as test subjects and aspirin （ASA） as a positive control， the analgesic effects of the microneedles were evaluated using a formalin-induced pain model.RESULTS Blank microneedles prepared with 30% HA 1.5w exhibited optimal surface flatness and the membrane puncture rate （through 4 layers of parafilm membrane） reaching 78%. The PHTF-MNs （with PHTF contents of 10， 20， 30， 40， and 50 mg/g in the matrix） exhibited uniform arrays and intact tips， with RSDs for total flavonoid contents all below 7% （ n ＝8）. The single-needle puncture forces were 1.46 and 1.07 N （with PHTF contents of 30 and 50 mg/g in the matrix， respectively）. The skin penetration rate approached 100%， with visible puncture marks in the stratum corneum and drug residue （with a PHTF content of 50 mg/g in the matrix）. After 30 min of fixation， the needles had almost completely dissolved， and the skin retention rates all exceeded 90% （with PHTF contents of 10， 30， and 50 mg/g in the matrix， respectively）. The cumulative release within 8 h was （134.64±2.03） μg/cm 2 ， and the fit to the first-order kinetic equation （ R 2 ＝0.950 1） was highest （with a PHTF content of 50 mg/g in the matrix）. Low- and high-dose PHTF-MN （containing 85.26 and 145.03 μg of total flavonoids per patch， respectively； 1 patch/day） significantly shortened the cumulative time of phase Ⅱ pain response in mice （ P ＜0.05）， with pain inhibition rates （43.67% and 59.78%） comparable to those of ASA （53.70%）.CONCLUSIONS PHTF-MN using HA 1.5w as a single matrix was successfully prepared. This formulation features a simplified preparation process， uniform drug loading， favorable mechanical properties， resistance to fracture， and rapid dissolution. Its drug release behavior conforms to a first-order kinetic model， and its analgesic effect is comparable to that of ASA.

Objective To explore the application effect of multimodal analgesia combined with goal-di-rected fluid therapy based on enhanced recovery after surgery(ERAS)in the anesthesia management of pa-tients undergoing orthopedic robot-assisted pedicle internal fixation.Methods Eighty patients with lumbar fractures who underwent robot-assisted surgery in Huai'an 82 Hospital from February 2024 to February 2025 were selected as the research objects and divided into the ERAS group and the control group according to the random number table method,with 40 cases in each group.The ERAS group received multimodal analgesia combined with goal-directed fluid therapy based on ERAS,while the control group adopted the traditional an-esthesia protocol.The hemodynamic indicators[heart rate,mean arterial pressure(MAP)]before the start of anesthesia(T0),immediately before the operation(T1),at the end of the operation(T2),and at the time of postoperative recovery(T3),as well as the IL-6 levels at T0,24 hours after the operation(T4),48 hours after the operation(T5),and 72 hours after the operation(T6)were compared between the two groups.Recorded the postoperative recovery time,visual analogue scale(VAS)score,incidence of complications and hospital stay,as well as perioperative infusion management parameters[total infusion volume,positive fluid balance volume,the compliance rate of stroke volume variation(SVV),etc.].Results Compared with the control group,the proportion of MAP fluctuations≤±10%(87.5%vs.62.5%),and the proportion of basal heart rate increase≤20%(95.0%vs.70.0%)in the ERAS group were higher than those in the control group(P<0.05).At T4,the IL-6 levels in both groups were the highest,while the IL-6 levels from T4 to T6 in the ERAS group were lower than those in the control group(P<0.05).Compared with control group,wake times[(18.5±3.2)min vs.(25.1±4.5)min],bed time for the first time[(8.2±2.1)h vs.(20.5±4.3)h],the length of time[(4.2±1.1)d vs.(6.5±1.3)d]in the ERAS group were shorter,24-hour resting VAS score(2.1±0.6 vs.3.8±0.9)and the incidence of complications(20.0%vs.57.5%)were lower,the total infusion volume[(1 850±220)mL vs.(2 550±310)mL],the amount of colloid solution[(620±95)mL vs.(850±120)mL],and the positive balance volume of liquid[(320±90)mL vs.(1 120±210)mL]were less,the intraoperative urine volume[(0.55±0.08)mL·kg-1·h-1 vs.(0.30±0.10)mL·kg-1·h-1]was more,the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).The compliance rate of SVV in the ERAS group was 95.0%(38/40).Conclusion Multimodal analgesia combined with goal-directed fluid therapy based on ERAS can effectively stabilize the perioperative physiological state of patients undergoing robot-assisted spinal sur-gery,accelerate postoperative functional recovery and reduce complications.

Background and Aims:Totally implantable venous access port(TIVAP)are widely used for chemotherapy,blood transfusion,and nutritional support in patients with malignancies.Among them,upper arm port(UAP)are increasingly recommended in clinical practice due to their advantages in avoiding thoracic complications and providing more concealed incisions.Currently,two main implantation techniques are used for UAP:the tunnel needle-transverse incision technique and the puncture point-transverse incision technique.This study aims to compare the clinical outcomes of these two techniques in patients with hematological malignancies,focusing on safety and cosmetic appearance,to provide evidence for clinical decision-making.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on 412 patients with hematological malignancies who underwent UAP implantation at Xiangya Hospital of Central South University between December 2021 and December 2024.Based on the implantation method,patients were divided into the tunnel needle-transverse incision group(n=200)and the puncture point-transverse incision group(n=212).Intraoperative variables(operative time,intraoperative pain score,catheter kinking at the pocket,intraoperative blood loss)and postoperative indicators(incidence of complications and incision aesthetic satisfaction)were compared between the two groups.Results:There were no significant differences in baseline characteristics between the two groups(all P>0.05),indicating comparability.The puncture point-transverse incision group showed superior performance in operative time[(32.99±4.91)min vs.(41.42±5.35)min],catheter kinking rate(1.4％vs.8.5％),and incision aesthetic satisfaction(7.99±0.58 vs.6.26±0.86)compared with the tunnel needle-transverse incision group(all P<0.05).Although the puncture point group had slightly more intraoperative bleeding[(4.52±1.02)mL vs.(4.16±0.83)mL],the difference,while statistically significant,was of limited clinical relevance.No significant differences were observed between the two groups in intraoperative pain scores or incidence of postoperative complications(both P>0.05).Conclusion:The puncture point-transverse incision technique offers significant advantages in terms of operative efficiency,reduced catheter kinking,and improved incision aesthetics,without compromising safety.It represents a promising alternative to the traditional tunnel needle-transverse incision method and has strong potential for broader clinical adoption.The puncture point-transverse incision technique offers advantages such as shorter operative time,lower catheter kinking rate,and higher incision aesthetic satisfaction.It is a promising alternative to the traditional tunnel needle-transverse incision technique and has good potential for clinical application and promotion.

The clinical data of 2 pediatric patients with atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS) who were admitted to the Department of Nephrology at the Children′s Hospital of Nanjing Medical University on July 2018 to June 2023 were retrospectively analyzed.Both patients had combined CFH and CD46 gene mutations.One patient, a 2-year-old boy, presented jaundice and darkened urine following mumps.The other patient, a 7-month-old girl and the younger sister of the boy, developed fever, cough, vomiting, and thrombocytopenia without any apparent cause.Laboratory tests revealed hemolytic anemia, thrombocytopenia, and acute kidney injury in both patients.The genetic test results revealed mutations in both CFH (c.3572C>T, p.Ser1191Leu) and CD46 genes (c.293C>T, p.Thr98Ile) in both patients.The patients′ mother is a heterozygous carrier of the CFH gene mutation, while their father is a heterozygous carrier of the CD46 gene mutation.Both parents exhibit normal phenotypes and are currently receiving regular infusions of Eculizumab.The pediatric aHUS caused by combined CFH and CD46 gene mutations is reported in this study for the first time in China.The clinical features of these patients are summarized and analyzed.

Objective To understand the current situation of healthcare-associated infection(HAI)in China,pro-vide data support and decision-making basis for formulating scientific and effective strategies for HAI prevention and control.Methods A nationwide cross-sectional survey on HAI was conducted among various types and levels of medical institutions in China according to a unified protocol of bedside surveys and case investigations.Results In 2024,a total of 5 736 medical institutions and 2 751 765 patients were surveyed.Among them,34 889 HAI cases were identified,with a prevalence rate of 1.27％.The number of HAI episodes was 38 032,and case prevalence rate was 1.38％.The prevalence rate of HAI in medical institutions in different regions of China ranged from 0.66％to 2.35％.Among medical institutions of different scales,those with a bed capacity of ≥900 had the high-est incidence of HAI,reaching 1.65％.The most common infection site was the lower respiratory tract(44.66％),followed by the urinary tract(12.94％),surgical site(9.32％),upper respiratory tract(7.02％),and bloodstream infection(5.78％).The top 3 departments with the highest HAI rates were the general intensive care unit(10.02％),department of neurosurgery(5.51％),and department(group)of hematology(5.34％).A total of 23 238 strains of HAI pathogens were detected,with 10 714 strains(46.10％)from lower respiratory tract speci-mens.The top 5 detected strains were Klebsiella pneumoniae(14.76％),Pseudomonas aeruginosa(13.33％),Escherichia coli(12.79％),Acinetobacter baumannii(9.23％),and Staphylococcus aureus(7.88％).231 944 pa-tients underwent class Ⅰ incision surgery were monitored,with 1 647 cases experienced surgical site infection,and the prevalence rate of surgical site infection was 0.71％.The number of patients who should undergo pathogen de-tection(patients receiving therapeutic and therapeutic combined prophylactic antimicrobial agents)was 715 179,while the actual number was 480 492,with a pathogen detection rate of 67.18％.425 225 patients received patho-genic detection before treatment,with a detection rate of 59.46％.Conclusion The overall HAI prevalence in Chi-na is lower,showing disparities among medical institutions of different regions and scales.Therefore,precise imple-mentation of measures is necessary for HAI prevention and control,with a focus on high-risk institutions and high-risk departments,key areas,and critical procedures.All levels of medical institutions should continuously reduce the incidence of HAI by strengthening monitoring,standardizing the use of antimicrobial agents,and reinforcing basic HAI prevention and control measures.

Objective:To explore the mediating role of self-perceived aging in the relationship between perceived social support and self-efficacy for exercise in aged patients undergoing surgery for lung cancer and provide a basis for formulating relevant clinical intervention strategies.Methods:Totally 220 aged lung cancer patients who underwent surgery and were hospitalized at the Cancer Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences and Peking Union Medical College, from April to June 2024 were recruited by convenience sampling. Patients completed a demographic questionnaire, the Self-Efficacy for Exercise (SEE) , the Ageing Perceptions Questionnaire (B-APQ) , and the Perceived Social Support Scale (PSSS) . The mediation effect of self-perceived aging between perceived social support and self-efficacy for exercise was analyzed using Model 4 in the SPSS Process macro.Results:A total of 220 questionnaires were distributed, and 207 valid questionnaires were returned, with an effective recovery rate of 94.09%. The total score for B-APQ was (46.93±11.35) , the SEE score was (44.12±12.83) , and the PSSS score was (53.18±13.53) . Perceived social support had a direct effect on self-efficacy for exercise (effect value: 0.278; P<0.01) . Self-perceived aging played a partial mediating role between perceived social support and self-efficacy for exercise, with a mediation effect value of 0.138 ( P<0.01) , accounting for 33.17% of the total effect (0.138/0.416) . Conclusions:Perceived social support directly influences self-efficacy for exercise in aged patients undergoing surgery for lung cancer and also exerts an indirect effect through self-perceived aging. It is recommended that healthcare providers guide these patients to establish a positive perception of aging while focusing on enhancing their social support levels to improve their self-efficacy for exercise and promote recovery.
