Objective:To establish a genomic nucleic acid mass spectrometry detection platform for allelic risk associated with Alzheimer's disease.Methods:Whole blood samples of 61 patients diagnosed as Alzheimer's disease in the Affiliated Brain Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University from December 28th, 2023 to 31st, March 2024 were collected and deoxynucleic acid (DNA) was extracted, including 22 males and 39 females, aged (67.36 ± 8.18) years old. After screening out 17 risk gene loci in Chinese population, multiplex polymerase chain reaction primers, single-base extension primers and Sanger sequencing primers were designed. Ten samples were used for primer optimization and debugging through Sanger sequencing and time-of-flight mass spectrometry to establish a detection system. The remaining samples were genotyped using a time-of-flight mass spectrometer and verified by Sanger sequencing for accuracy evaluation. Five samples were selected for gradient dilution and then subjected to time-of-flight mass spectrometry detection to evaluate the detection limit. Three clinical samples, one case of Escherichia coli and one case of Staphylococcus aureus genomic DNA samples were selected for cross-reaction research. The anti-interference ability of the detection system was evaluated against hemolysis, chylous substances and conventional anticoagulants in the samples. Two samples, one wild and one homozygous mutation sample with representative peak shapes, were selected to evaluate the anti-interference ability. Four samples containing the common genotypes of all gene loci in the system were selected and repeated 10 times to evaluate the precision.Results:The minimum intensity of single-base extension primers on mass spectrometry is greater than half of the maximum intensity. All 17 risk gene loci screened were successfully typed. The time-of-flight mass spectrometry detection results of 1,037 loci from 61 samples showed that the genotyping detection rate was 100%. The genotypes of the 20 DNA samples were completely consistent with the results of Sanger sequencing, with an accuracy rate of 100%. The mass spectrometry detection results of five samples after gradient dilution indicated that the low detection limit was 5 ng of DNA. The reaction system has a strong anti-interference ability against hemolysis of samples, chylous substances, conventional anticoagulants and DNA cross-contamination. Homologous allele interference and no cross-reaction between the bacterial genome and 17 gene loci do not affect the risk genome detection results. The results of 10 repeated mass spectrometry tests on 4 samples showed that the precision was 100%.Conclusion:The genomic detection system of Alzheimer's disease risk has been successfully established to provide an auxiliary mean for disease diagnosis and risk assessment.
2.Advancements of proteomic techniques in research on common mental disorders diagnosis and treatment
Chinese Journal of Nervous and Mental Diseases 2025;51(8):496-500
Clinical diagnosis and treatment of psychiatric disorders still rely primarily on subjective symptom assessment,leading to difficulties in early identification,a lack of objective biomarkers,and insufficient monitoring of treatment efficacy.Proteomics is a field that investigates protein structure,function,interactions,and their alterations under physiological or pathological conditions.In recent years,proteomic technologies have achieved significant advances in psychiatric research:In schizophrenia studies,proteomics has uncovered abnormalities in energy metabolism,immune responses,and lipid metabolism,with some differentially expressed proteins serving as potential biomarkers and therapeutic targets;In depressive disorders,proteins associated with inflammatory responses,oxidative stress,and mitochondrial dysfunction have been closely linked to disease mechanisms,and multi-marker panels show promise in improving diagnostic accuracy and monitoring treatment response;In Alzheimer disease research,the detection of Aβ,tau,and related signaling pathway proteins has facilitated early screening and the development of targeted therapies.

Objective:To explore the application effects of case nursing review based on training transfer theory in specialized nurses training, and to provide reference for promoting the knowledge and skills transformation of specialized nurses.Methods:A total of 64 specialized nurses from Longgang District Maternity & Child Healthcare Hospital of Shenzhen City were selected as subjects by convenient sampling from June 10 to July 20, 2022 and divided into control group and observation group by random number table method. The control group received routine core competence training, while the observation group received case nursing review based on training transfer theory. The training duration of both groups was 12 months. Within 1 month after the training, the training satisfaction, nursing case report quality score, core competence of specialized nurses, patient satisfaction and training transfer outcomes of the two groups were compared.Results:Finally, 62 specialist nurses were included, with 31 nurses in control group and observation group, 2 males and 29 females in each group, aged (34.10 ± 3.93) years in control group and (33.35 ± 3.06) years in observation group. Before training, there were no significant differences in nursing case report quality score, total score of core competence of specialized nurses and patient satisfaction between the two groups (all P> 0.05). After training, the nursing case quality score, total score of core competence and patient satisfaction in the observation group were 73.00(68.00, 78.00), 179.00(175.00, 183.00), 96.00(94.00, 99.00) points, which were higher than 85.00(80.00, 89.00), 163.00(162.00, 166.00), 88.00(85.00, 92.00) points in the control group, and the differences were statistically significant ( Z = 5.81, 6.73, 13.31, all P<0.05). The total training satisfaction of nurses, awards in professional competitions and the number of technological innovations in the observation group were 21.00(20.00, 22.00) points, 15 awards, 8 innovations, which were higher than 15.00(14.00, 16.00) points, 5 awards, 2 innovations in the control group, and the differences were statistically significant ( Z = 6.74, χ2 = 7.38, 4.29, all P<0.05). Conclusions:The application of case nursing review based on training transfer theory can improve the training satisfaction of specialist nurses, stimulate their motivation to transfer training, and improve their ability and effectiveness in training transfer.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy of oliceridine for postoperative analgesia in patients undergoing breast-conserving surgery for breast cancer.Methods:In this prospective, randomized, double-blind, single-center, positive-control clinical study, 123 patients with breast cancer, aged 18-64 yr, of American Society of Anesthesiologists Physical Status classification I or Ⅱ, with a body mass index of 18-28 kg/m 2, undergoing breast-conserving surgery under general anesthesia at the Affiliated Cancer Hospital of Zhengzhou University from May to August 2024, were divided into 2 groups using a random number table method: sufentanil group (group S, n=62) and oliceridine group (group O, n=61). During anesthesia induction, sufentanil 15 μg was intravenously injected in group S, and oliceridine 3 mg was intravenously injected in group O. At 2 min before skin incision, sufentanil 10 μg was intravenously injected in group S, and oliceridine 2 mg was intravenously injected in group O. Postoperative patient-controlled intravenous analgesia was performed, with group S receiving sufentanil 50 μg and group O receiving oliceridine 10 mg, each diluted with normal saline to 100 ml. The pain visual analog scale scores at rest and during activity were recorded at 6, 12, 24 and 48 h postoperatively. The time of the first pressing of the postoperative analgesic pump, effective pressing times of patient-controlled analgesia and requirement for rescue analgesia within 24 h after surgery were recorded. The Ramsay sedation scores were recorded at 5, 15 and 30 min after tracheal extubation. The postoperative recovery quality was measured using the 15-item quality of recovery questionnaire at 24 h before surgery and at 24 and 48 h after surgery. The adverse reactions were recorded within 48 h after surgery. Results:Compared with group S, no significant change was found in visual analog scale scores at rest and during activity at different time points, the time of the first pressing of the postoperative analgesic pump, effective pressing times of patient-controlled analgesia and requirement for rescue analgesia within 24 h after operation, or the Ramsay sedation scores at 5, 15 and 30 min after tracheal extubation ( P>0.05), and 15-item quality of recovery scores were significantly increased at 24 and 48 h after surgery, and the incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting was decreased in group O ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Oliceridine produces postoperative analgesic effects comparable to sufentanil without affecting patient awakening and reduces postoperative nausea and vomiting, which is helpful for early postoperative recovery when used in the patients undergoing breast-conserving surgery for breast cancer.

We conducted a prospective study to assess the non-inferiority of adjuvant chemotherapy alone versus adjuvant concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) as an alternative strategy for patients with early-stage (FIGO 2009 stage IB-IIA) cervical cancer having risk factors after surgery. The condition was assessed in terms of prognosis, adverse effects, and quality of life. This randomized trial involved nine centers across China. Eligible patients were randomized to receive adjuvant chemotherapy or CCRT after surgery. The primary end-point was progression-free survival (PFS). From December 2012 to December 2014, 337 patients were subjected to randomization. Final analysis included 329 patients, including 165 in the adjuvant chemotherapy group and 164 in the adjuvant CCRT group. The median follow-up was 72.1 months. The three-year PFS rates were both 91.9%, and the five-year OS was 90.6% versus 90.0% in adjuvant chemotherapy and CCRT groups, respectively. No significant differences were observed in the PFS or OS between groups. The adjusted HR for PFS was 0.854 (95% confidence interval 0.415-1.757; P = 0.667) favoring adjuvant chemotherapy, excluding the predefined non-inferiority boundary of 1.9. The chemotherapy group showed a tendency toward good quality of life. In comparison with post-operative adjuvant CCRT, adjuvant chemotherapy treatment showed non-inferior efficacy in patients with early-stage cervical cancer having pathological risk factors. Adjuvant chemotherapy alone is a favorable alternative post-operative treatment.

OBJECTIVE To provide reference for rational use of cyclin-dependent kinase 4/6 (CDK4/6) inhibitors. METHODS Retrieved from Web of Science, PubMed, SpringerLink, CNKI, Wanfang Data and VIP database, and so on, the literature about lung toxicity related to CDK4/6 inhibitors were collected and analyzed statistically with Excel 2013 software. RESULTS A total of 12 literature which met the inclusion and exclusion criteria were included; 13 patients were involved, among which 3 cases were from the United States, 3 from Japan, 2 from India, and 1 from Israel, Spain, France, Australia and Saudi Arabia respectively; all patients were female, aged between 43-89 years, of whom 8 were treated with palbocicilib, 3 with abemacilib, and 2 with ribociclib. The lung toxicity of patients after medication occurred from 1 week to 15 months; the majority of patients were hospitalized with the symptom such as difficulty breathing, chest tightness, shortness of breath, dry cough, etc. The lung toxicity mainly manifested as interstitial lung disease, eosinophilic pneumonia, mediastinal and pulmonary granulomatous reaction, drug-induced pneumonia, diffuse alveolar damage, organizing pneumonia and so on. The shortest treatment duration was 3 weeks, and the longest was 6 months. The treatment measures included drug withdrawal, intravenous use of antibiotics, intravenous use of systemic steroids, oxygen inhalation, and so on; after treatment, 8 patients improved or recovered, and 5 patients died due to deterioration. One patient developed lung toxicity again after reuse of such drugs and must stop drugs permanently. CONCLUSIONS Lung toxicity related to CDK4/6 inhibitors possibly cause mortality. It is necessary to make early judgment, stop the drug in time, and give patients systemic steroids, oxygen inhalation and other treatment measures as soon as possible.
