Objective:To explore the clinical effect on the treatment of radiation induced deep ulcers in the inguinal region with ipsilateral anterolateral thigh chimeric perforator flap.Methods:From March 2020 to March 2024, retrospective analysis of 8 patients with radiation induced deep ulcers in the inguinal region were treated with ipsilateral anterolateral thigh chimeric perforator flap in the Medical Centre of Burn Plastic and Wound Repair, the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University. All ulcers induced by radiation were caused by postoperative radiotherapy in the inguinal region, of which 4 were of vulvar or penile cancer, 2 of urinary tract tumour, 1 of inguinal protuberant dermatofibrosarcoma and 1 of myofibroblastic sarcoma in lower abdominal wall. The course of the radiation induced ulcer was 0.5-11.0 years, with an average of 2.9 years. The sizes of the ulcerative wound were 2.5 cm × 3.0 cm - 5.5 cm × 7.5 cm. Preoperative biopsies of the tissues around wound and pelvic CT scans were performed to preliminarily exclude a tumour recurrence or an ulcerative malignancy, as well as to confirm the depth of radiation ulcer. The wound size after debridement was 4.5 cm × 6.0 cm-13.5 cm × 19.0 cm, with a depth of 2.0-4.0 cm. An ipsilateral anterolateral thigh chimeric perforator flap was transferred to reconstruct the wound, after the wound edges were cleared from tumour through intraoperative frozen section examinations. The flaps were 5.5 cm × 7.0 cm - 14.0 cm × 20.0 cm in size, with the volumes of muscle flap at 7.0 cm × 4.0 cm × 3.0 cm - 14.0 cm × 7.0 cm × 3.0 cm. After having the deep defect at the base of wound filled with a muscle flap, the wound surface was covered by the flap. Four patients had direct suture of the donor sites and 4 received a thick skin graft of head or contralateral thigh grafting. Survival of the anterolateral thigh chimeric perforator flaps and the healing of donor sites were observed after surgery through scheduled postoperative follow-up by the visits of outpatient clinic and distant interviews via telephone, WeChat or the internet hospital.Results:One of the ipsilateral anterolateral thigh chimeric perforator flaps had venous occlusion within 24 hours after surgery. Emergency surgical exploration revealed that it was caused by a haematoma compression due to haemorrhage in the muscle flap. Further debridement, haemostasis and suture were performed, then the wound healed. The rest of 7 flaps all survived. All donor sites healed primarily. The postoperative follow-up lasted for 5-17 months with all of the 8 patients, at 8.4 months in average. Both the donor and recipient sites healed well without recurrence of radiation ulcer in the affected sites. The appearance and texture of the flaps were good, and there was no obvious functional impairment at the donor sites.Conclusion:The treatment of radiation induced deep ulcer in the inguinal region with an ipsilateral anterolateral thigh chimeric perforator flap has shown good results, without recurrence of ulcer after surgery. The appearance and texture of the affected sites are good, and there is no secondary functional impairment at the donor site.

Objective To systematically evaluate the safety and efficacy of Kangfuxin liquid combined with adenosine monophosphate in the treatment of paediatric herpetic stomatitis.Methods Randomised controlled trials(RCTs)of Kangfuxin liquid combined with adenosine monophosphate for the treatment of paediatric herpetic stomatitis were searched in various databases,and Meta-analysis was performed using RevMan 5.4 software.Results A total of 12 RCTs with a sample size of 1,094 cases were included.Meta-analysis showed that the combination of Kangfuxin liquid with adenosine monophosphate significantly increased[RR=1.21,95%CI(1.16,1.28),P<0.000 01]the overall clinical efficacy rate of paediatric herpetic stomatitis.Compared with the conventional antiviral treatment group with adenosine monophosphate,the incidence of adverse events was lower in the Kangfuxin liquid group[RR=0.26,95%CI(0.14,0.51),P<0.000 01].In addition,the Kangfuxin liquid group could effectively shorten the time for herpes disappearance(skin lesion healing),pain disappearance,fever reduction,salivation disappearance and recovery of diet(P<0.05),and had advantages in promoting the recovery of lymphocytes(CD3+,CD4+,CD8+,and CD4+/CD8+),serological levels(CRP,TNF-α,WBC,IL-10,VEGF,EGF,and IL-6)(P<0.05).Conclusion Kangfuxin liquid combined with adenosine monophosphate has the better efficacy and safety in the treatment of paediatric herpetic stomatitis,and has advantages in shortening the symptomatic recovery time and improving the indicators of lymphocyte and serological levels in paediatric herpetic stomatitis.

ObjectiveTo investigate the mechanism of Forsythiae Fructus-Lonicerae Japonicae Flos（FF） in the treatment of acute lung injury（ALI） by investigating the effects of FF on serum metabolomics of rats with ALI. MethodsThirty male SD rats were acclimated for 1 week， and 6 rats were randomly selected as the blank group. The other 24 rats were injected with lipopolysaccharide（LPS） solution by tracheal drip to establish an ALI model. After successful model establishment， the rats were randomly divided into the model group， the FF low-dose group（3.0 g·kg^-1）， the FF high-dose group（6.0 g·kg^-1）， and the dexamethasone group（5 mg·kg^-1）， with six rats in each group. The FF low- and high-dose groups and the dexamethasone group were received daily oral administration of the corresponding drug solution， and the blank group and the model group were gavaged with an equal amount of saline， treatment was administered continuously for 3 d. The pathological conditions of rat lung tissues were evaluated by hematoxylin-eosin（HE） staining， wet/dry mass ratio（W/D） of the lung tissues， and protein concentration in rat bronchoalveolar lavage fluid（BALF）. Metabolomic analysis of rat serum was performed by ultra-performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole-time-of-flight mass spectrometry（UPLC-Q-TOF-MS）， combined with multivariate statistical analysis， the potential biomarkers of FF in treating ALI were screened by variable importance in the projection（VIP） value>1， P<0.05 from t-test， and log₂fold change（FC）>1 or log₂FC<-1. Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes（KEGG） database combined with MetaboAnalyst were used for pathway analysis of the screened differential metabolites. The protein expression levels of sphingosine-1-phosphate（S1P）， phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase（PI3K）， protein kinase B1（Akt1）， and phosphorylated Akt1（p-Akt1） were examined by Western bolt. The expression levels of interleukin（IL）-6， IL-1β， and tumor necrosis factor（TNF）-α in BALF were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay（ELISA）. ResultsCompared with the blank group， rats in the model group showed ALI pathological features such as alveolar lumen dilatation， interstitial hemorrhage and massive inflammatory cell infiltration， and the protein concentration in BALF and W/D of the lung tissues were significantly elevated（P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， the low- and high-dose groups of FF as well as the dexamethasone group exhibited reduced pulmonary bronchial hemorrhage in rats， and the protein concentration in BALF and W/D were significantly decreased（P<0.05）， and the lung injury was significantly alleviated. Analysis of rat serum metabolomics revealed that FF downregulated 38 biomarkers. Pathway enrichment analysis showed that FF primarily exerted therapeutic effects through 7 key metabolic pathways， including arginine biosynthesis， sphingomyelin metabolism， alanine， aspartate and glutamate metabolism， taurine and hypotaurine metabolism， α-linolenic acid metabolism， niacin and nicotinamide metabolism， and retinol metabolism. The results of Western bolt and ELISA showed that， compared with the blank group， the model group exhibited significantly elevated expression levels of S1P， PI3K， Akt1 and p-Akt1 proteins in the lung tissues， as well as increased expression levels of IL-6， IL-1β and TNF-α in BALF（P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， the expression levels of the aforementioned indicators were significantly downregulated in the low- and high-dose FF groups as well as the dexamethasone group（P<0.05， P<0.01）. ConclusionFF may play a role in ALI by regulating amino acid metabolism and lipid metabolism， and its mechanism may be related to the inhibition of S1P/PI3K/Akt1 signaling pathway to attenuate the inflammatory response caused by ALI.

BACKGROUND:Previous studies have found that neohesperidin can delay bone loss in ovariectomized mice and has the potential to treat osteoporosis,but its specific mechanism of action remains to be explored. OBJECTIVE:To explore the key targets and possible mechanisms of neohesperidin in the treatment of osteoporosis based on bioinformatics and cell experiments in vitro. METHODS:The gene expression dataset related to osteoporosis was obtained from GEO database,and the differentially expressed genes were screened and analyzed in R language.The osteoporosis-related targets were screened from GeneCards and DisGeNET databases,and the neohesperidin-related targets were screened from ChEMBL and PubChem databases,and the common targets were obtained by intersection of the three.The String database was used to construct the PPI network of intersection genes,and the key targets were screened.The DAVID database was used for GO and KEGG enrichment analysis.The AutoDock software was used to verify the molecular docking between the neohesperidin and the target protein.The effect of neohesperidin on osteogenic differentiation of C57 mouse bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells was detected.Complete medium was used as blank control group;osteogenic induction medium was used as the control group;and osteogenic induction medium containing different concentrations of neohesperidin(25,50 μmol/L)was used as experimental group.The expression of alkaline phosphatase,the degree of mineralization,the expression of osteogenic-related genes and target genes during osteogenic differentiation of cells were measured at corresponding time points. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)9 253 differentially expressed genes,2 161 osteoporosis-related targets,and 326 neohesperidin-related targets were screened.There were 53 common targets among the three.All 53 genes were up-regulated in osteoporosis samples.The PPI network screened the target gene PRKACA of research significance.GO function and KEGG pathway enrichment analysis showed that neohesperidin's treatment of osteoporosis through PRKACA target mainly depended on biological processes such as protein phosphorylation and protein autophosphorylation,acting on endocrine resistance,proteoglycan in cancer,and estrogen signaling pathway to play a therapeutic role.Molecular docking results showed that neohesperidin had a certain binding ability to the protein corresponding to the target PRKACA.(2)The results of alkaline phosphatase staining showed that neohesperidin could promote the expression of alkaline phosphatase in the early stage of osteogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells.Alizarin red staining showed that neohesperidin could promote the mineralization of osteogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells.RT-qPCR results showed that neohesperidin could increase the mRNA expression of alkaline phosphatase,PRKACA,and osteocalcin.(3)These results indicate that neohesperidin may promote osteogenic differentiation through PRKACA target on the estrogen signaling pathway to prevent and treat osteoporosis.

Objective:To assess the effects of recognition function of four-lead electrocardiogram(ECG)synchronization technique and multi-parameter fusion technique in reducing the number of false alarms and improving the quality of alarms in intensive care units(ICU).Methods:Four-lead ECG synchronization technique and multi-parameter fusion technique were used to strengthen the monitoring and assessment for the alarm of clinical monitors,and reduce the false alarm rate of monitors.The clinical alarm data of bed units corresponding to 48 monitors in clinical use of ICU,cardiovascular intensive care unit(CCU)and neurosurgery intensive care unit(NICU)of Hainan General Hospital from October 14 to December 27,2024 were selected.According to the opening and close of the four-lead ECG synchronization and multi-parameter fusion technique algorithm of the monitors,they were divided into group A(opened four-lead ECG synchronization and multi-parameter fusion),group B(opened four-lead ECG synchronization,but closed multi-parameter fusion),group C(closed four-lead ECG synchronization,but opened multi-parameter fusion)and group D(closed four-lead ECG synchronization and multi-parameter fusion),with 12 units in each group.The numbers of total alarms and false alarms generated by monitor of each bed unit among different optimization strategies were compared.Results:The numbers of average daily alarm of the monitors in groups A,B and C were respectively(134.2±32.4)cases,(392.5±68.2)cases and(583.4±126.5)cases,which were lower than those in group D(1 073.2±168.6),with statistically significant differences(Z=3.45,2.94,2.52,P<0.05).The optimization rates of the alarm numbers in groups A,B and C were increased by 87.51%,63.47%and 45.67%,respectively.The rates of average false alarm of the monitors in groups A,B and C were respectively(1.04±0.15)%,(1.73±0.12)%and(2.07±0.08)%,which were lower than(3.76±0.2)%in group D,with statistically significant differences(Z=3.45,2.94,2.52,P<0.05).Conclusion:Four-lead ECG synchronization technique and multi-parameter fusion technique can effectively optimize the number of alarms in ICU,and reduce the proportion of false alarms of monitors in department,and decrease fatigue of medical staffs for alarm.

Objective:To analyze the effects of shared decision-making in patients with type 2 diabetic mellitus.Methods:Databases including PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, Cochrane Library, CNKI, Wanfang Datebase, COVIP and SinoMed, for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) on the application of shared decision-making in patients with type 2 diabetic mellitus from inception to July 22, 2023, used R Studio software for meta-analysis.Results:A total of 14 RCTs and 2 606 patients with type 2 diabetic mellitus were included. The results of meta-analysis showed that the shared decision-making can alleviate the decision-making conflict of type 2 diabetic mellitus patients ( MD=-3.18, 95% CI -5.36 to -0.99, P<0.05), improve the decision-making self-efficacy ( MD=5.82, 95% CI 2.34 to 9.30, P<0.05), medication compliance ( RR=1.08, 95% CI 1.01 to 1.16, P<0.05), and diabetes-related knowledge ( SMD=0.46, 95% CI 0.16 to 0.75, P<0.05), reduce BMI ( MD=-0.75, 95% CI-1.33 to -0.17, P<0.05) and the HbA1c level ( MD=-0.45, 95% CI -0.65 to -0.24, P<0.05) in the 3-month follow-up. Conclusions:The shared decision-making improves the self-management in patients with type 2 diabetic mellitus. However, the long-term effect and potential risks of this model still need to be further studied. It is suggested that the application of shared decision-making in type 2 diabetic mellitus patients should be optimized in the future, and research on the long-term effects and potential risks of this model should be increased.

Objective:To investigate the current situation of adverse events in hemodialysis nursing in class-A tertiary hospitals in China and analyze their nursing human resources related influencing factors, aiming at provide references for hemodialysis centers to adjust nursing human resources scientifically to reduce the occurrence of nursing adverse events.Methods:A convenient sampling method was used. From August to October 2021, a self-designed questionnaire was used to investigate nursing adverse events in hemodialysis centers of 860 class-A tertiary hospitals during 2020 in China. Multivariate Logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of blood loss, hemodialysis catheter-related blood stream infection (CRBSI) and venous needle dislodgement (VND) in hemodialysis centers.Results:A total of 826 valid questionnaires were received, with an effective response rate of 96.05%(826/860). There were 826 hemodialysis centers covering 31 provinces, municipalities and autonomous regions in China. The establishment period of each center was 24(18, 30) years. There were 45(30, 62) dialysis machines, 180(110, 260) patients and 19(13, 27) registered nurses. Blood loss, hemodialysis CRBSI and VND occurred in 70.94% (586/826), 68.04%(562/826) and 46.97% (388/826) of hemodialysis centers, respectively. Multivariate Logistic regression results showed that the daily treatment shift ( OR=0.730, 95% CI 0.536-0.994), the proportion of nurses with bachelor's degree or above ( OR=1.635, 95% CI 1.142-2.342), and whether nurses worked part-time on peritoneal dialysis treatment ( OR=0.225, 95% CI 0.052-0.965) were the influencing factors for blood loss in hemodialysis centers (all P<0.05). The daily treatment shift ( OR=0.566, 95% CI 0.413-0.777), the number of patients which each nurse was responsible for per shift simultaneously ( OR=0.549, 95% CI 0.400-0.753), proportion of blood purification specialized nurses ( OR=1.661, 95% CI 1.216-2.269), whether nurses worked part-time on CRRT ( OR=0.700, 95% CI 0.511-0.957), the education level of the nursing manager was junior college and below ( OR=3.789, 95% CI 1.576-9.113) and bachelor′s degree ( OR=2.585, 95% CI 1.328-5.033) were the influencing factors for the hemodialysis catheter-associated bloodstream infection in hemodialysis centers (all P<0.05). The number of patients which each nurse ( OR=0.580, 95% CI 0.433-0.777) was responsible for per shift simultaneously was the influencing factor in the occurrence of VND in hemodialysis centers ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The nursing adverse events of blood loss, hemodialysis catheter-associated bloodstream infection and VND were relatively common in hemodialysis centers. The hospital managers should take corresponding measures aiming at the above influencing factors to prevent the occurrence of nursing adverse events and improve the quality and safety of nursing.
