Objective To construct a home care readiness program for caregivers of patients with chronic heart failure based on the McMaster Family Functioning Model and explore its application effects.Methods The pro-gram was developed through literature analysis,expert correspondence and pre-testing.86 pairs of patients with chronic heart failure and their caregivers who were admitted to the Department of Cardiology of a tertiary-level hos-pital in Bengbu City were conveniently selected from December 2023 to April 2024 as the study subjects.Using the coin-flip method,the patients were randomly divided into 43 pairs in an experimental group and 43 pairs in a control group on a ward-by-ward basis.The experimental group implemented the program on the basis of routine care,and the control group was given routine care.Differences in caregiver home care readiness,caregiver caregiv-ing ability and patients' quality of life were compared between the 2 groups at the time of admission,at the time of discharge,and 1 and 3 months after discharge.Results A total of 81 pairs of patients and their caregivers completed the intervention,with 41 in the experimental group and 40 in the control group.Repeated-measures ANOVA showed that there was an interaction effect between time and group for caregiver home care readiness,caregiver caregiving ability,and patient quality of life in both groups(F=320.995,P<0.001;F=83.303,P<0.001;F=113.283,P<0.001).Simple effect analyses showed that caregiver home care readiness and caregiver caregiving com-petence scores were higher in the experimental group than those in the control group at the time of discharge and at 1 and 3 months post-discharge(P<0.001);quality of life scores of patients in the experimental group were lower than it in the control group at 1 and 3 months post-discharge(P<0.001).Conclusion The implemen-tation of the program can effectively improve the home care readiness and caregiving ability of caregivers of pa-tients with chronic heart failure,and improve the quality of life of patients.

The bacterium Streptomyces peucetius produces doxorubicin and daunorubicin,and the two widely used anticancer antibiotics.Two open reading frames,drrA and drrB,were proposed to encode for an ABC (ATP-binding cassette) type of permease that carries out export of the antibiotic ABC (ATP binding cassette)-type transporter for the exportation of these two antibiotics.In this paper,the structure,expression and interaction of DrrA and DrrB protein and the research progress of the assembly and multi drug efflux function of DrrAB are briefly reviewed.

Objective To evaluate the endovascular treatment of diffuse aortoiliac occlusive diseases. Methods Thirty-two patients underwent endovascular treatment in which rest pain was found in 84.38%, foot local gangrene in 15.62%. Mean age was 69.7 years (range, 52 years to 81 years) and 71.9% was male. Trans Atlantic Inter-Society Consensus C and D disease was respectively in 40.6% and 59.4% patients. Mean length of vasculopathy was (14.6 ± 1.2) cm (range, 4.5 cm to 19.5 cm) All patients had prohibitive risk for open revascularization. With the approach from femoral artery or brachial artery, combined techniques, such as recanahzation, balloon dilation, stent placement and concomitant common femoral endarterectomy were used. Results Technical success was achieved in twenty-nine patients(90.63%). The complication rate was 3.45%. Clinical status was markedly improved in eight cases (27.59%) and moderately improved in twenty-one cases(72.41%). Mean postoperative ABI was 0.73 ± 0.12, mean preoperative ABI was 0.32 ± 0.09. Significant differences were seen between postoperative ABI and preoperative ABI(P<0.05). Mean time of follow-up was (13.9±6.2) months. At 6 months, primary patency was 81.82% and secondary patency was 89.09%. At 12 months, primary patency was 63.64% and secondary patency was 80.18%. Conclusion Combined multiple endovascular technique is a safe and effective method in the treatment of poor risk diffuse aortoiliac occlusive diseases.
