To systematically analyzed the reporting status of core elements in publicly available clinical practice guideline(hereafter referred to as "guideline") protocols published domestically and internationally over the past decade, identified existing problems, and provided evidence to inform the standardized writing and publication of future guideline protocols. A systematic search was conducted in Chinese and English databases for clinical practice guideline protocols published during the past ten years. The basic characteristics and reporting of core elements—including registration information, conflict of interest management, evidence grading, development process and timeline planning, as well as dissemination and implementation—were extracted and analyzed. Chi-square tests were performed to explore associations between protocol characteristics and the reporting of core elements. A total of 94 guideline protocols were included, of which 67 were in Chinese(71.28%) and 27 were in English(28.72%). Overall, 82.98% of the guideline protocols were registered, 92.55% reported management of conflicts of interest, 97.87% reported evidence searching, 88.30% reported evidence grading, and 89.36% described dissemination and implementation strategies. However, only 55.32% reported the guideline development process, and merely 23.40% reported timeline planning. Further analysis indicated that the reporting of registration, evidence searching, development process, and timeline planning was associated with year of publication. Differences were observed between domestic and international guidelines in reporting registration, conflict of interest management, development process, time planning, and dissemination and implementation. Guidelines intended for development exhibited higher reporting rates for registration, development process, and dissemination and implementation compared to those planned for updating or adaptation. Although current guideline protocols demonstrate relatively adequate reporting of methodological elements, deficiencies remain in development process and timeline planning. Future efforts should focus on promoting the publication and standardized reporting of guideline protocols, enhancing the international recognition of registration platforms, and strengthening the development process and timeline planning to advance the scientific rigor and transparency of guideline development.

Objective To explore the relationship between levels of retinol binding protein (RBP) and lipoprotein (a) [Lp(a)], and obesity and the occurrence risk of cardiovascular disease in population with prehypertension (PH). Methods A total of 301 patients with PH who were admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui University of Science and Technology for physical examination from July 2021 to July 2024 were selected as the study subjects. The levels of serum RBP and Lp(a) were determined, and the waist circumference (WC) and body mass index (BMI) were measured to evaluate the obesity of patients. All patients were followed up. According to whether cardiovascular disease occurred during the follow-up period, they were classified into a study group (with cardiovascular disease) and a control group (without cardiovascular disease). The effects of serum RBP and Lp(a) levels, WC and BMI on the risk of cardiovascular disease were analyzed. Results The follow-up results showed that 53 out of 301 cases developed cardiovascular disease. The levels of RBP, Lp(a), WC, and BMI in the study group were higher than those in the control group (P<0.05). Receiver operating characteristic curve revealed that the areas under the curves of RBP, Lp(a), WC, and BMI for predicting the cardiovascular disease were 0.823, 0.741, 0.768, and 0.841, respectively. Serum RBP, Lp(a), WC, and BMI were influencing factors of the occurrence of cardiovascular disease (P<0.05). Conclusion RBP, Lp(a), WC, and BMI are the influencing factors for the occurrence of cardiovascular disease in patients with prehypertension. These four indicators have certain predictive value on the occurrence of cardiovascular disease.

Objective:To investigate changes in behavior and hippocampal and prefrontal cortical myelin basic protein(MBP) in model mice with post-traumatic stress disorder(PTSD).Methods:Thirty-two clean-grade male C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into control group, PTSD 3 d group, PTSD 7 d group and PTSD 14 d group based on matching body mass, with 8 mice in each group. The mice in PTSD 3 d, 7 d and 14 d groups were decapitated at 3 d, 7 d, and 14 d after modeling.The PTSD mouse model was established through conditioned foot shock and single prolonged stress. Anxious- and depressive-like behaviors of mice were assessed by the open field test(OFT). The mouse step-through passive avoidance experiment was used for electric shock training and learning and memory retention. Myelin morphology alterations in the hippocampus and prefrontal cortex of the mouse were examined via myelin staining.The expression levels of MBP were quantified using Western blot and immunohistochemical staining techniques. All experimental data were analyzed and visualized using GraphPad Prism 8.0.2 and SPSS 25.0, the multi groups comparison of behavioral and molecular indicator data was conducted by one-way ANOVA, and the correlation between MBP relative protein expression level and behavioral indicators was analyzed by Pearson correlation analysis.Results:(1) Behavioral results: in OFT, there were significant differences in total distance, average speed, time of stationary and times of entering the central area among all groups( F=16.72, 16.74, 7.37, 5.93, all P<0.05).The total distance and the average speed time of PTSD 3 d, 7 d, 14 d group were all lower than those in control group(all P<0.05).In the mouse step-through passive avoidance experiment, significant differences were observed across all groups in terms of total distance traveled, average speed, dark box entries, and activity time( F=52.78, 55.47, 9.07, 24.88, all P<0.05).All the indexes of PTSD 3 d group and PTSD 7 d group were all higher than those in control group and PTSD 14 d group(all P<0.05).(2)Myelin staining revealed statistically significant differences in the myelin staining areas of the hippocampal CA1 region and the prefrontal cortex across all groups( F=6.67, 5.77, all P<0.05). The stained myelin area in the CA1 region of the hippocampus in the PTSD 3 d group((123.30±11.62)μm 2)was significantly lower compared to the control group((153.00±2.61)μm 2)( P<0.05). The stained myelin area in the prefrontal cortex of the PTSD 3 d group((119.50±9.26)μm 2)was significantly lower compared to that in the control group((154.80±12.40)μm 2)( P<0.05). (3) Western blot results demonstrated significant variations in the expression levels of myelin basic protein (MBP) within the hippocampus and prefrontal cortex across all experimental groups ( F=10.15, 5.28, all P<0.05). The expression levels of MBP in the hippocampal tissue of the PTSD 3 d group (0.89±0.07), PTSD 7 d group (0.90±0.14), and PTSD 14 d group (0.85±0.13) were significantly lower compared to those in the control group(1.17±0.02)(all P<0.05). The expression levels of MBP protein in the prefrontal cortex of the PTSD 3 d group(0.73±0.16) and PTSD 7 d group (0.70±0.12)were significantly lower compared to those in the control group (0.94±0.04)(all P<0.05). (4) Immunohistochemical staining revealed significant variations in the number of MBP-positive cells within the hippocampal CA1 region and the prefrontal cortex across all groups ( F=39.32, 21.81, both P<0.05). The quantity of MBP-positive cells in the hippocampal tissue of mice in the PTSD 3 d group((187.10±1.12)/mm 2)and PTSD 7 d group((193.10±2.18) /mm 2)was significantly reduced compared to the control group((204.80±3.25)/mm 2)(all P<0.05). The quantity of MBP-positive cells in the prefrontal cortex of the PTSD 7 d group((183.90±1.71)/mm 2) was significantly reduced compared to the control group((191.60±1.04) /mm 2)( P<0.05). Conclusion:The PTSD model mice showed anxious- and depression-like behavior, impaired learning and memory ability, and myelin damage in the hippocampus and prefrontal cortex.

Objective:To analyze the correlation between near work, screen time, outdoor time and myopia in children based on objective monitoring technology and to explore the influencing factors related to myopia in children.Methods:A cross-sectional study was conducted.From October 2022 to March 2023, the purposive sampling method was used to select 596 children in Grade 2 and Grade 3 from two primary schools in Shandong Province as study subjects.Eye-Monitor technology of eye-use behavior based on artificial intelligence was used to quantify parameters of near work, screen time and outdoor time.The eye-use behavior parameters were compared within each subject and between non-myopic and myopic children on weekdays and weekends.A multivariate binary logistic regression model was constructed to analyze the influencing factors related to myopia.The study protocol was approved by the Medical Ethics Committee of the Affiliated Eye Hospital of Shandong University of Traditional Chinese Medicine (No.HEC-HY-2022023KY).Written informed consent was obtained from the legal guardian of each subject.Results:For each subject, the proportion of near work time on weekdays was greater than on weekends, the proportion of time spent looking at cell phones, computer screens, and outdoor activities was smaller, the duration of single continuous near eye use was longer, the tilt angle of the head in sitting position was greater, and the light intensity was stronger, showing statistically significant differences ( t=19.427, -9.964, -5.916, -10.470, 2.211, 2.898, 15.061; all P<0.05).During weekdays, compared with the non-myopia group, the myopia group had longer total near work duration, longer single continuous near eye use duration, shorter outdoor activity duration, closer eye use distance, larger proportion of near work time, and smaller proportion of outdoor activity time, showing statistically significant differences (all P<0.05).During weekends, compared with the non-myopia group, the myopia group had longer time spent looking at cell phones and computer screens, shorter outdoor activity time, greater proportion of time spent looking at cell phones and computer screens, and smaller proportion of outdoor activity time, with statistically significant differences (all P<0.05).During weekdays, after adjusting for confounding factors, longer single continuous near eye use duration ( OR=1.138, 95% CI: 1.086-1.192, P<0.001) was the risk factor for myopia, and longer working distance ( OR=0.906, 95% CI: 0.847-0.970, P=0.004) and longer outdoor activity time ( OR=0.127, 95% CI: 0.023-0.703, P=0.018) were protective factors for myopia.During weekends, after adjusting for confounding factors, longer time spent on looking at cell phone screens ( OR=2.437, 95% CI: 1.460-4.068, P<0.001) and longer time spent on looking at computer screens ( OR=2.260, 95% CI: 1.283-3.979, P=0.005) were risk factors for myopia, and longer outdoor activity time ( OR=0.624, 95% CI: 0.416-0.934, P=0.022) was the protective factor for myopia. Conclusions:The eyes with continuous near work, prolonged use of smartphone and computer screens, closer eye use distance, and less time spent outdoors have been confirmed to be significantly correlated with myopia based on objective monitoring data.When formulating intervention measures for myopia prevention and control in children, it is advocated to further pay attention to control the distance and duration of near work on weekdays and strengthen screen time management on weekends.

Objective To investigate the risk factors for mortality and bleeding complications in extracorporeal membrane oxygenation(ECMO)treated patients and to evaluate the impact of thrombocytopenia severity on the prognosis of ECMO therapy.Methods A total of 153 patients who received ECMO treatment at Peking University Third Hospital between January 2013 and September 2024 were en-rolled in this study.The patients were divided into death group(n=97)and recovery group(n=56)based on their final outcomes.Additionally,the patients were categorized into bleeding group(n=104)and non-bleeding group(n=49)based on the occurrence of bleeding complications during ECMO.Clinical baseline characteristics and extreme laboratory values during ECMO were compared be-tween groups.Logistic regression was used to analyze the risk factors for mortality and bleeding.The patients were further divided,based on the initial platelet(PLT)values on the day of catheter placement and the lowest platelet count during ECMO,into normal group(PLT≥ 100× 109/L),moderate reduction group[PLT=(50~99)× 109/L],and severe reduction group(PLT<50× 109/L).Kaplan-Meier analysis was used to compare survival rates among these groups.The patients in the moderate and severe reduction groups were further divided into a platelet transfusion group and a non-transfusion group,and the outcomes and complication rates were com-pared.Results The recovery group had a higher proportion of myocarditis,higher minimum values of PLT,Hb,and Fib,and higher initial PLT values,while the maximum values of lactic dehydrogenase(LDH),total bilirubin(T-Bil),prothrombin time(PT),and procalcitonin(PCT)were lower(all P<0.05)with significant differences.Logistic regression showed that age and maximum PCT were independent risk factors for mortality(OR=1.025 and 1.015 respectively,all P<0.05).The bleeding group had longer ECMO dura-tions,more plasma transfusions,lower minimum Hb values,and higher maximum values of WBC,neutrophils(Neu),and APTT(all P<0.05)with statistical differences.The minimum PLT value,maximum WBC value,and maximum APTT value were independent risk factors for bleeding complications(OR=0.986,1.062,and 1.004 respectively,all P<0.05).Kaplan-Meier analysis showed that the patients in the severe reduction group had lower survival rates,regardless of whether the grouping was based on initial or minimum platelet counts(all P<0.05).Platelet transfusion improved the mortality in the severe reduction group(P<0.05)but had no effect on the moderate reduction group.Conclusion Age and peak value of PCT are the risk factors for mortality in ECMO patients,while mini-mum PLT count,peak value of WBC and APTT are the risk factors for bleeding complications.Early intervention for infection and in-flammation during ECMO may improve the outcome of patients.Severe thrombocytopenia during ECMO therapy increased the risk of mortality,and targeted platelet transfusion may improve the survival of these patients.
