Under the new situation,the selection of operation assistants in public hospitals is a major measure to improve the level of lean operation management of hospitals,so it is very important to design a scientific and reasonable selection and training mechanism for operation assistants.Through literature research and drawing on the competency model,a tertiary grade A cardiovascular disease hospital was selected as a case study to explore the construction of a selection mechanism from four aspects:selection objects,selection conditions,selection methods and selection criteria.Five training mechanisms were formulated from five aspects:capacity improvement,clinical service,data analysis,evaluation and feedback,and organizational behavior norms,and then it was proposed that attention should be paid to the scientific,feasible,replicable and innovative nature of the selection and training mechanism,so as to build an effective public hospital operation assistant team.

Objective To investigate the expression levels of serum microRNA-21(miR-21)and microRNA-23a(miR-23a)in patients with Parkinson's disease(PD)and their correlations with cognitive function and inflammatory responses.Methods A total of 120 PD patients admitted to the Second Affiliated Hospital of Hebei North University between December 2019 and January 2022 were enrolled,along with 115 healthy controls from the same period.Serum miR-21 and miR-23a levels were measured by quantitative real-time PCR,while serum levels of IL-6,CRP,and TNF-α were determined by ELISA.According to Mini-Mental State Examination(MMSE)scores,PD patients were classified into a cognitive impairment group(MMSE<26,n=72)and a normal cognition group(MMSE≥26,n=48).General characteristics in clinical and biochemical indicators levels were compared between the two groups.Spearman correlation analysis was used to assess the relationships of miRNAs and MMSE scores.Multivariate logistic regression analysis was employed to identify risk factors for cognitive impairment.The predictive value of miR-21 and miR-23a was evaluated using Receiver Operating Characteristic(ROC)curve analysis.Results Serum miR-21,miR-23a,IL-6,CRP,and TNF-α levels were significantly higher in the PD group than in the control group(P<0.01).The cognitive impairment group showed higher levels of miR-21,miR-23a,and inflammatory factor than the cognitively normal group(P<0.01).Correlation analysis revealed that miR-21 and miR-23a levels were negatively correlated with MMSE scores(r=-0.472,-0.514;P<0.001)and positively correlated with IL-6,CRP,and TNF-α(P<0.001).Multivariate Logistic regression analysis revealed that high expression of miR-21,miR-23a,and a higher UPDRS score,were independent risk factors for cognitive impairment in PD patients(P<0.05).Combined detection of miR-21 and miR-23a showed higher predictive accuracy for cognitive impairment than either marker alone(P<0.05).Conclusion Serum expression levels of miR-21 and miR-23a was upregulated in PD patients,which were associated with cognitive function and inflammatory response.Combined detection shows good predictive value for cognitive impairment..

Xiaoaiping (XAP) Injection demonstrates the anti-prostate cancer (PCa) effects, yet the underlying mechanism remains unclear. This study aims to investigate the impact of XAP on PCa and elucidate its mechanism of action. PCa cell proliferation was evaluated using a cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) assay. Cell apoptosis was assessed through Hoechst staining and Western blotting assays. Proteomics technology was employed to identify key molecules and significant signaling pathways modulated by XAP in PCa cells. To further validate potential key genes and important pathways, a series of assays were conducted, including acridine orange (AO) staining, transmission electron microscopy, and immunofluorescence assays. The molecular mechanism of XAP against PCa in vivo was examined using a PC3 xenograft mouse model. Results demonstrated that XAP significantly inhibited cell proliferation in multiple PCa cell lines. In C4-2 and prostate cancer cell line-3 (PC3) cells, XAP induced cellular apoptosis, evidenced by reduced B-cell lymphoma 2 (Bcl-2) levels and elevated Bcl-2-associated X (Bax) levels. Proteomic, immunofluorescence, and quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) investigations revealed a strong correlation between forkhead box O3a (FoxO3a) autophagic degradation and the anti-PCa action of XAP. XAP hindered autophagy by reducing the expression levels of autophagy-related protein 5 (Atg5)/autophagy-related protein 12 (Atg12) and enhancing FoxO3a expression and nuclear translocation. Furthermore, XAP exhibited potent anti-PCa action in PC3 xenograft mice and triggered FoxO3a nuclear translocation in tumor tissue. These findings suggest that XAP induces PCa apoptosis via inhibition of FoxO3a autophagic degradation, potentially offering a novel perspective on XAP injection as an effective anticancer therapy for PCa.

AIM:This study aims to investigate the mechanisms underlying skeletal muscle mitochondrial damage associated with decline in exercise function during high-altitude de-adaptation,using a mouse model.METHODS:Twen-ty-four healthy male C57BL/6J mice were randomly assigned to two groups:a high-altitude de-adaptation group and a plain control group.The model group was exposed to a low-pressure,low-oxygen chamber simulating an altitude of 7 000 meters for two weeks,followed by eight days of rearing in a plain environment.The control group was maintained in a plain envi-ronment for the same duration.Grip strength and pole-climbing tests were conducted on the 1st,3rd,and 5th days post-re-turn to assess muscle strength and motor coordination.Treadmill exercises were performed on the 4th and 8th days to eval-uate exercise endurance.After the treadmill exercise on the 8th day,serum,liver,and skeletal muscle tissues were col-lected.Levels of lactic acid(LA),glucose(GLU),creatine kinase(CK),lactate dehydrogenase(LDH),alanine trans-aminase(ALT),and aspartate aminotransferase(AST)in serum,as well as glycogen levels in the liver and muscle,were analyzed.Additionally,the expression of proteins related to mitochondrial biogenesis,fission,fusion,and oxidative phos-phorylation in muscle tissues was assessed using Western blot.RESULTS:(1)The model group exhibited significant re-ductions in grip strength,increased pole-climbing T-turn and total times,and decreased total time and distance in the ex-haustion running test.(2)Serum levels of LA,CK,LDH,ALT,and AST were elevated,while GLU levels decreased,and glycogen levels in both the liver and muscle were reduced in the model group following the treadmill exercise.(3)Ab-normal indicators in the model group did not return to normal by the end of the de-adaptation period.(4)Western blot analysis revealed decreased expression of mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation proteins(ATP6V1A and Mt-CO2)and mitochondrial biogenesis proteins(PGC-1α and FGF21),increased levels of mitochondrial fusion proteins(OPA1 and MFN1),and no significant changes in fission protein expression(FIS1 and DRP1)in muscle tissue from the model group.CONCLUSION:Exercise capacity in mice during the high-altitude de-adaptation period significantly declined,particu-larly in terms of muscle strength,motor coordination,and endurance.This decline is closely associated with abnormal pro-tein expression related to skeletal muscle mitochondrial energy metabolism and production.

Objective:To analyze the effect of comprehensive rehabilitation intervention on the physical functioning of frail elderly persons.Methods:A total of 318 frail elderly persons were randomly divided into a control group ( n=164) and an observation group ( n=154) to test different interventions. Propensity score matching was used to balance the baseline information between the two groups 1∶1. A total of 200 cases were successfully matched, with 100 cases in each group. Both groups received drug treatment and routine nursing, while the observation group was additionally provided with comprehensive rehabilitation. Before and after 4 weeks of the treatment, both groups were evaluated using visual analogue scale (VAS) scoring for their perception of pain intensity, hand grip strength, gait speed, 6-minute walking distance (6MWD), 5 sit-up time, and the timed up and go test (TUGT). Results:There were no significant differences between the groups in any of the measurements before the experiment. Afterward, all of the outcome measures except gait speed were significantly better among the experimental group than among the controls, on average.Conclusions:Comprehensive rehabilitation can relieve pain, improve the walking, handgrip strength and exercise endurance of the frail elderly.
