Objective:To analyze and evaluate the current situation of unplanned extubation of midline catheters, and to provide a basis for the prevention of unplanned extubation of midline catheters.Methods:PubMed, Embase, The Cochrane Library, Web of Science, CINAHL, Scopus, China Biomedical Database, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wanfang Database, and VIP database were searched by computer to collect studies on the incidence of unplanned extubation of midline catheters from inception to February, 2024. Two reviewers independently screened the literature, extracted the data, and assessed the risk of bias of included studies, and then the meta-analysis was performed by Stata 18.0 software.Results:A total of 35 literatures were included, with a total sample size of 7 202 cases. Meta-analysis results showed that the overall incidence of unplanned catheter extubation was 15.3% (95% CI 12.3%-18.3%). Pain was the most common cause of unplanned extubation, occurring at 8.3% (95% CI 3.3%-13.2%). Subgroup analysis showed that the incidence of unplanned extubation in patients <18 years old, 18-59 years old, and ≥60 years old were 17.0%, 10.9%, 18.0%, respectively. The incidence of unplanned extubation in high-income countries and middle and low-income countries were 24.4% and 3.3%, respectively. The incidence of unplanned extubation of catheter tips near axillary vein, chest wall segment axillary vein, or subclavian vein were 19.3% and 3.6%, respectively. Conclusions:The incidence of unplanned extubation of midline catheters is high. Among them, the incidence of unplanned extubation was higher in patients ≥60 years of age, high-income countries, and patients with catheter tips placed near axillary veins. It is suggested that medical staff should pay attention to this and formulate relevant measures to prevent the occurrence of unplanned extubation.

(±)-Talapyrones A-F (1-6), six pairs of dimeric polyketide enantiomers featuring unusual 6/6/6 and 6/6/6/5 ring systems, were isolated from the fungus Talaromyces adpressus. Their structures were determined by spectroscopic analysis and HR-ESI-MS data, and their absolute configurations were elucidated using a modified Mosher's method and electronic circular dichroism (ECD) calculations. (±)-Talapyrones A-F (1-6) possess a 6/6/6 tricyclic skeleton, presumably formed through a Michael addition reaction between one molecule of α-pyrone derivative and one molecule of C₈ poly-β-keto chain. In addition, compounds 2/3 and 4/5 are two pairs of C-18 epimers, respectively. Putative biosynthetic pathways of 1-6 were discussed.

Objective:To investigate the safety and effectiveness of endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) for the diagnosis and treatment of pediatric pancreaticobiliary maljunction (PBM).Methods:Data of 40 pediatric patients under 14 with PBM diagnosed and treated by ERCP at Department of Gastroenterology, Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital, the Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing University Medical School from November 2012 to September 2022 were collected. PBM types, ERCP-related diagnosis and treatment, adverse events and prognosis were retrospectively analyzed.Results:Nineteen cases were P-B type (joining of common bile duct with pancreatic duct), 17 were B-P type (joining of pancreatic duct with common bile duct), and 4 were complex type. Forty children with PBM underwent 50 ERCP-related operations, among which 48 procedures succeeded. One case failed during cannulation of ERCP, replaced by rendezvous-assisted endoscopic retrograde pancreatography (RV-ERP) afterwards. There were no serious postoperative adverse events such as bleeding, perforation or death. Thirty-four patients (85%) were followed up successfully, among which 14 underwent further surgery and 20 continued conservative treatment.Conclusion:ERCP is the golden standard to diagnose pediatric PBM, and it is also safe and effective treatment for PBM.

ObjectiveTo observe the effectivenss and safety of Yiqi Huoxue Formula （益气活血方） combined with surgery and sequential therapy of estrogen and progesterone for the treatment of intrauterine adhesion with syndrome of qi deficiency and blood stasis. MethodsSixty-four patients with intrauterine adhesions were recruited in Guang'anmen Hospital， China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences during 1st June 2021 to 31st December 2022， and they were randomly divided into two groups， with 32 patients in each group， all receiving transcervical resection of adhesions （TCRA）. The control group was treated with sequential therapy of estrogen and progesterone after surgery， taking 1 tablet orally daily， estradiol tablets for the first 14 days， and estradiol dydrogesterone tablets for the last 14 days. In the treatment group， the postoperative treatment was combined with Yiqi Huoxue Formula on the basis of the treatment in the control group， and 1 dose was taken daily. The treatment course of both groups was 3 months. We observed the clinical effectiveness， syndrome scores of traditional Chinese Medicine （TCM）， endometrial thickness， uterine adhesion score， menstrual flow points， and the re-adhesion rate and pregnancy rate 3 months after the end of treatment of the two groups， and conducted evaluation on safety. ResultsThe total clinical effectiveness rates of the treatment group and the control group were 90.63% and 75.00%， respectively， significantly better in the treatment group （P＜0.05）. The endometrial thickness and menstrual flow of patients in both groups increased after treatment， and the scores of uterine adhesion and TCM syndrome scores decreased significantly （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. After treatment， the uterine adhesion score and TCM syndrome scores of the treatment group decreased significantly compared with the control group （P＜0.05）. The 6-month postoperative pregnancy rate in the treatment group was 37.50%， higher than the 12.50% in the control group （P＜0.05）. The re-adhesion rate was 3.13% in the treatment group and 9.38% in the control group， and the difference between the two groups was not statistically significant （P＞0.05）. No adverse events occurred in both groups. ConclusionYiqi Huoxue Formula combined with surgery and sequential therapy of estrogen and progesterone for treating intrauterine adhesion patients with syndrome of qi deficiency and blood stasis can promote endometrial recovery， increase menstrual flow， improve patients' clinical symptoms， and improve pregnancy rate， showing certain clinical effectiveness and safety.

Objective:To evaluate clinical prognosis and prognostic factors of patients with early stage (Ⅰ stage) and locally advanced (Ⅱ/Ⅲ stage) lung cancer treated with carbon ion radiotherapy (CIRT).Methods:Clinical data, treatment, adverse reactions, survival and so on of 54 lung cancer patients who received CIRT and follow-up in the Heavy Ion Center of Wuwei Cancer Hospital of Gansu Province from March 2020 to September 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. The survival curve was plotted using Kaplan-Meier method. Difference tests were performed using log-rank test. Logistic regression analysis was used to identify prognostic factors.Results:According to inclusion and exclusion criteria, 54 patients were enrolled in the study, including 10 patients with early stage lung cancer and 44 patients with locally advanced lung cancer. The median follow-up time for 10 patients with early stage lung cancer was 11.0 (6.75, 17.25) months, and the median dose of irradiation was 60 Gy [relative biological effect (RBE)]. Upon the last follow-up, 3 patients had complete response (CR) and 3 patients had partial response (PR). Four patients had stable disease (SD) and no progressive disease (PD). The 1-year and 2-year local control rates (LCR), progression-free survival (PFS) rates and overall survival (OS) rates were 100%. During treatment and follow-up, 2 patients developed grade 1 radiation pneumonia, 1 case of grade 2 radiation pneumonia, 1 case of chest wall injury (chest wall pain), and there were no adverse reactions greater than grade 2. The median follow-up time of 44 patients with locally advanced stage was 12.5 (4.25, 21.75) months, and the median irradiation dose was 72 Gy (RBE). Thirty-two (73%) patients received concurrent chemotherapy during treatment, 20 (45%) patients received sequential chemotherapy after treatment, 14 (32%) patients received immune maintenance therapy and 3 (7%) patients obtained PD and received targeted drugs. Upon the last follow-up, 3 (7%) patients had CR, 17 (39%) patients had PR, 19 (43%) patients obtained SD, and 5 (11%) patients had PD. The 1-year and 2-year LCR were 96.0% and 87.3%, 90.9% and 84.1% for the 1-year and 2-year PFS rates, and 93.2% and 86.4% for the 1-year and 2-year OS rates, respectively. The median OS and PFS of patients were not reached. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that maintenance therapy after radiotherapy ( P=0.027) and clinical target volume (CTV) irradiation volume ( P=0.028) were the factors affecting PFS. Simultaneous chemoradiotherapy ( P=0.042) and maintenance therapy after radiotherapy ( P=0.020) were the factors affecting OS. And gross tumor volume (GTV) ≥215 ml ( P=0.068) might be an independent risk factor for grade 2 and above radiation pneumonia. Conclusions:The domestic carbon ion system has definite clinical effect and controllable toxic and side effects in the treatment of early stage and locally advanced lung cancer. The combination of synchronous chemotherapy and further maintenance treatment can significantly improve clinical prognosis of patients without significantly increasing the risk of toxic and side effects.

Objective To construct recombinant human butyrylcholinesterase(rhBChE)knock-in goat fetal fibroblast cell lines(GFFs)by using clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats(CRISPR)/CRISPR-associated protein 9(Cas9)-mediated homology-directed repair mechanism for subsequent production of goat expressing rhBChE.Methods The efficient sgRNA sites targeting goat[3-casein(CSN2)gene were designed and screened,and the targeting efficiency of the sgRNA in goat mammary epithelial cells(GMECs)was confirmed by electro-transfection,flow sorting,and sequencing of PCR products.The red fluorescent reporter gene homology repair vector(P2A-mCherry)targeting the sgRNA was constructed,and then the integration and expression efficiency was detected by flow cytometry.The rhBChE homology repair vector(P2A-rhBChE)targeting the sgRNA of CSN2 gene was constructed in GFFs,the rhBChE positive cell clones were obtained via electro-transfection and flow sorting,and the rhBChE knock-in cell lines was identified by sequencing of PCR products.Results The sgRNA4 was identified as an efficient target of goat CSN2 gene,which could be also used for targeted integration of other genes.Three rhBChE knock-in cell lines were successfully constructed.Conclusion The rhBChE knock-in GFFs targeting goat CSN2 gene lays the foundation for the production of mammary bioreactors expressing rhBChE.

Objective:To evaluate the optical performance of two aspheric intraocular lenses (IOL) AcrySof IQ SN60WF and Proming A1-UV with identical negative spherical aberration values, using the optical bench OptiSpheric IOL R&D through an in vitro study. Methods:The optical performance of + 20.0 D blue-light filtering SN60WF and monofocal high-order aspheric non blue-light filtering A1-UV IOL was evaluated through cornea models with the spherical aberration of 0 μm (ISO-1) and + 0.28 μm (ISO-2) under apertures of 3.0 mm and 4.5 mm via the optical bench OptiSpheric IOL R&D.The modulation transfer function (MTF) and USAF 1951 resolution test chart were employed to measure the IOL with centering, decentration of 0.3, 0.5, 0.7, 0.9 and 1.1 mm, as well as tilt of 3°, 5°, 7°, 9° and 11°.The spectral transmittance of IOL was measured with the UV-3300 UV-VIS spectrophotometer.Results:Compared with the A1-UV IOL, the spectral transmittance of SN60WF for blue light with wavelengths of 400-500 nm was significantly reduced, which effectively reduced the passage of blue light.At an aperture of 3.0 mm, the MTF values at 100 lp/mm spatial frequency for the centered SN60WF and A1-UV were 0.576 and 0.598 under ISO-1 corneal measurement conditions, 0.564 and 0.563 under ISO-2 conditions.At an aperture of 4.5 mm, the MTF values were 0.238 and 0.404 under ISO-1 corneal measurement conditions, and 0.438 and 0.339 under ISO-2 conditions.The MTF values of A1-UV and SN60WF at 3.0 mm aperture and 100 lp/mm spatial frequency under ISO-1 corneal measurement conditions were larger than those under ISO-2 corneal measurement conditions.Under ISO-1 corneal measurement conditions with a 3.0 mm aperture, A1-UV had a better optical quality compared to SN60WF, whereas under ISO-2 corneal measurement conditions, the optical quality of both IOLs was similar.Under the 3.0 mm aperture, the MTF values of SN60WF and A1-UV at a decentration of 0.3 mm and 100 lp/mm spatial frequency were 0.414 and 0.571 under ISO-1 corneal measurement conditions, 0.438 and 0.512 under ISO-2 corneal measurement conditions, respectively.The MTF values of SN60WF and A1-UV at a tilt of 3° were 0.522 and 0.597 under ISO-1 corneal measurement conditions, and 0.532 and 0.531 under ISO-2 corneal measurement conditions.The MTF values and USAF resolution test chart of A1-UV had no significant change between the two corneal measurement conditions.When subjected to equal degrees of decentration or tilting, except for the ISO-1 corneal measurement conditions at a 4.5 mm aperture, the MTF values of A1-UV showed a gradual decline across various spatial frequencies compared to SN60WF.With the increase in aperture size, the impact of IOL decentration or tilting on MTF values and USAF 1951 resolution test chart became more notable for A1-UV relative to SN60WF.Conclusions:The SN60WF IOL effectively filters blue light within the wavelength range of 400-500 nm.However, when both IOL experience decentration greater than 0.3 mm or tilting beyond 3°, the optical quality of the IOL will decline.A1-UV has a distinct advantage over SN60WF in terms of resistance to both decentration and tilting-induced optical performance degradation in vitro.
