Objective:
To investigate the association between monocyte to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio (MHR) and periodontitis and to provide new epidemiologic evidence on the factors affecting periodontitis.
Methods:
Data on MHR, periodontitis, and other covariates were selected from the NHANES(National Health and Nutrition Examination) database for 3 cycles of subjects in 2009-2010, 2011-2012, and 2013-2014, and a total of 8 456 study subjects were included. The study participants were grouped according to the prevalence of periodontitis (presence or absence), and three regression models (unadjusted covariates, partially adjusted covariates, and fully adjusted covariates) were constructed to analyze the relationship between MHR and periodontitis by using a weighted logistic regression method with stepwise adjustment for confounders. MHR was divided into four groups from Q1 to Q4 according to quartiles from small to large for weighted trend analysis, and the nonlinear relationship between MHR (continuous) and periodontitis was analyzed using a restricted cubic spline with subgroup analysis and sensitivity analysis.
Results:
All three logistic regression models showed a positive association between MHR and periodontitis (OR = 2.92, 95%CI: 2.14-3.99, P<0.001 (not adjusted); OR = 1.97, 95%CI: 1.39-2.78, P<0.001 (partially adjusted); OR = 1.62, 95%CI: 1.10-2.39, P = 0.017 (fully adjusted)). Trend analysis showed a significantly higher risk of developing periodontitis in the Q4 group compared with the Q1 group in both single (OR = 1.92, 95% CI: 1.58-2.33, P<0.001) and multifactorial analyses (OR = 1.30, 95% CI: 1.03-1.64, P = 0.029). Restricted cubic spline results did not support a nonlinear relationship between MHR and periodontitis (P for nonlinear>0.05), subgroup analysis showed no significant interaction between the covariates and MHR (P>0.05), and sensitivity analysis also showed a positive correlation between MHR and periodontitis (OR = 1.67, 95%CI: 1.31-2.14, P<0.001).
Conclusion
MHR is positively associated with the risk of developing periodontitis.

Objective:To investigate the enrollment scale and distribution of Master's Degree in Pediatrics programs in China, and to provide a reference for promoting pediatric education and disciplinary development.Methods:Data on colleges and universities authorized to award Master's Degree in Pediatrics in 2023 were collected, sorted, and analyzed for the number, structure, distribution, and enrollment scale and direction of these institutions using descriptive statistics.Results:Among the 117 clinical medicine academic master's degree programs in China, 72 enroll pediatric academic master's degree candidates, with an enrollment of 260 students. Among the 120 master's degree programs in clinical medicine, 104 enroll professional master's degree candidates, enrolling 1 195 students. Enrollment is mainly concentrated in East China, "non-double first-class" colleges and universities, medical colleges and universities with subject level B, and enrollment is carried out in the direction of secondary disciplines.Conclusions:The number of colleges and universities authorized to award Master's Degree in Pediatrics was small, and the distribution of these colleges and universities was unbalanced. The enrollment scale was small and the orientation of Professional Master's Degree was not reasonable. Some colleges and universities were authorized to award Master's Degree in Pediatrics, but did not enroll any students. It is suggested to increase the number of colleges and universities authorized to award Master's Degree in Pediatrics and strengthen the staffing of pediatric departments. The aim is to expand the enrollment scale of candidates for Master's Degree in Pediatrics, improving the differential training of candidates for Academic Master's Degree and Professional Master's Degree, and attach importance to the construction of pediatrics.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.

ObjectiveBased on the nuclear factor erythroid 2 related factor 2 (Nrf2)/heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) signaling pathway, this paper explores the effect of Sinisan (SNS) on liver oxidative stress injury in cholestatic hepatitis rats and its mechanism. MethodThirty 6-week-old male SD rats were randomly divided into a control group, model group, low and high dose groups of SNS (2.5 and 5 g·kg-1) and ursodeoxycholic acid group (UDCA, 63 mg·kg-1), with six rats in each group. Rats were administrated for seven consecutive days. On the 5th day, the control group was given olive oil of 10 mL·kg-1, and the other groups were given alpha-naphthalene isothiocyanate (ANIT) of 80 mg·kg-1. The serum biochemical indicator levels of cholestasis and the content of antioxidant factors in rat liver were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining was used to observe the pathological changes in liver tissue. The relative mRNA and protein expressions of Nrf2, HO-1, and quinone oxidoreductase 1 (NQO1) in liver tissue were detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (Real-time PCR) and Western blot. ResultCompared with the control group, the model group showed a significant increase in the serum biochemical indicator levels of cholestasis and the content of antioxidant factors in liver tissue (P<0.01). There were obvious pathological changes in the model group such as the disordered arrangement of hepatocytes, obvious congestion and necrosis in the portal area, infiltration of inflammatory cells, and destruction of the interlobular bile duct. The relative mRNA and protein expressions of Nrf2, HO-1, and NQO1 in liver tissue were significantly down-regulated in the model group (P<0.05, P<0.01). Compared with the model group, the groups of SNS showed a significant decrease in the serum biochemical indicator levels of cholestasis and the content of antioxidant factors in liver tissue (P<0.01), and the pathological liver injury was obviously improved. The necrotic area was reduced, and the infiltration of inflammatory cells was decreased. In addition, there was a small amount of extravasated blood in the interlobular vein. The relative mRNA and protein expressions of Nrf2, HO-1, and NQO1 in liver tissue were significantly up-regulated (P<0.05, P<0.01). ConclusionSNS can significantly improve liver injury in cholestatic hepatitis rats, and its mechanism may be related to the inhibition of oxidative stress response mediated by the Nrf2/HO-1 signaling pathway.

ObjectiveThis study aimed to evaluate the clinical efficacy of Ruyi Zhenbaowan(RYZBW)in the treatment of initial and early knee osteoarthritis (KOA) through a prospective multicenter,randomized,double-blind,and placebo-parallel controlled trial. MethodFrom October 13th, 2021 to December 25th, 2021, 240 KOA subjects meeting the acceptance criteria were enrolled in 15 sub-centers including Wangjing Hospital, Chinese Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences, and they were randomly divided into observation group and control group, with 120 cases in each group. The intervention measures for the observation group were RYZBW + health education, and the intervention measures for the control group were RYZBW placebo + health education. The intervention period in both groups was four weeks, and they were followed up for four weeks after the intervention. The primary outcome measure was the total score of Western Ontario and McMaster University Osteoarthritis Index score (WOMAC score), and the secondary outcome measures were the response rate of visual scale (VAS) pain score, WOMAC sub item scores (joint pain, joint stiffness, and joint function), quality of life (SF-12) score, and traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) syndrome score. Result(1) Efficacy evaluation. The marginal model results showed that the observation group was better than the control group in improving the WOMAC total score and WOMAC pain score in the treatment of KOA with RYZBW, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). There was no significant difference between the two groups in improving VAS score response rate, WOMAC function score, WOMAC stiffness score, SF12-PCS (quality of life-physical health) score, SF12-MCS (quality of life-mental health) score, and TCM syndrome score. (2) Subgroup analysis. ① In terms of VAS score response rate, the response rate of the observation group was higher than that of the control group for subjects with baseline VAS score of (4, 5], and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). ② In terms of TCM syndrome score, for subjects aged [56, 60] and [61, 65], the decrease in total TCM syndrome score in the observation group was better than that in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). ConclusionTibetan medicine RYZBW has good clinical efficacy in improving WOMAC total score, VAS score response rate, WOMAC pain score, WOMAC function score, and TCM syndrome score for patients with initial and early KOA, which can fill the lack of Tibetan medicine RYZBW in the treatment of KOA and make a demonstration study for the inheritance and development of ethnic medicine.

Based on the discussions in the The Inner Canon of Yellow Emperor (《黄帝内经》), it is proposed that in the course of the disease, "bind" represents the initial stage of pulmonary nodules, while "accumulation" represents the final form. In terms of the pathogenesis, "two colds interacting" represented by "body cold" and "cold fluid retention" are the prerequisites for the formation of pulmonary nodules, while "disorder of qi" represented by "fainting" is the core of the formation. The specific manifestation is the disturbance of pivot of shaoyang (少阳) or shaoyin (少阴), resulting in a complex of cold and heat, and then phlegm and stasis are suddenly generated and further formed into nodules. Therefore, the treatment principle should be to regulate the cardinal mechanism, dissolve phlegm and blood stasis. Depending on the complex degree of cold and heat, it is suggested to use Chaihu Guizhi Decoction (柴胡桂枝汤), Chaihu Guizhi Ganjiang Decoction (柴胡桂枝干姜汤), or Chaihu Xianxiong Decoction (柴胡陷胸汤) for disturbance of shaoyang pivot, while for shaoyin pivot dysfunction, modified Mahuang Fuzi Xixin Decoction (麻黄附子细辛汤) or Shengjiang Powder (升降散) can be used.

OBJECTIVE To sort out drug prophylaxis regimens for venous thromboembolism (VTE) in adult patients after artificial joint replacement, and provide a basis for clinic. METHODS Databases and related official websites were searched according to the “6S” model, including the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE), the Scottish Intercollegiate Guidelines Network (SIGN), the Guidelines International Network (GIN), the National Guidelines Clearinghouse (NGC), PubMed, Embase, CNKI, Wanfang database and SinoMed, to search for guidelines, expert consensuses, systematic evaluations, randomized controlled trials, and cohort studies about preventing VTE in adult patients after artificial joint replacement from the inception until December 2023. Literature that met the inclusion criteria were selected, and the quality evaluation of the literature was completed by 2 researchers independently; the evidence rating was performed by using the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) evidence pre-classification and evidence rank system (2014 edition). RESULTS A total of 36 articles were included in the study, which were categorized into 9 areas of risk assessment, post-assessment prophylaxis, medication selection, medication method, duration of medication prophylaxis, medication prophylaxis observation points, contraindications to drug prophylaxis, response to bleeding, and health education, which were summarized to form 37 pieces of evidence on the pharmacological prophylaxis for postoperative VTE in patients who underwent artificial joint replacement. CONCLUSIONS The evidence of drug prophylaxis for postoperative VTE in patients who underwent artificial joint replacement summarized in this study is comprehensive, with certain scientific reference and practicality, which can provide clinical pharmacists with a scientific evidence-based basis for perioperative VTE prophylaxis management.

ObjectiveTo study the mechanism of matrine in the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) based on the zebrafish model and network pharmacology. MethodThe IBD model of zebrafish was established using 2,4,6-trinitro-benzenesulfonicacid (TNBS), and the intestinal phagocytic function, goblet cell secretion, and neutrophil aggregation were evaluated using neutral red staining, alcian blue staining, and neutrophil number changes. Changes in tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α and cholecystokinin (CCK) content in zebrafish were determined by using relevant reagent kits. Network pharmacology and molecular docking techniques were used to predict the potential mechanism of matrine in the treatment of IBD. Gene expression of relevant targets was verified through Real-time polymerase chain reaction (Real-time PCR). ResultCompared with the model group, the matrine administration group can increase the neutral red staining area in a dose-dependent manner and improve intestinal phagocytic function(P<0.05,P<0.01). It can reduce the staining area of alcian blue and affect the secretion of intestinal goblet cells(P<0.01). It can reduce the number of neutrophil granulocytes, relieve its aggregation, significantly reduce TNF-α content(P<0.01), and increase the CCK content. Network pharmacology analysis identifies 28 potential targets for matrine in the treatment of IBD. The top five targets by protein-protein interaction (PPI) network analysis are CHRNA7, DRD1, CHRNA4, SLC6A3, and GRM5. The Kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes (KEGG) results show that the treatment of IBD with matrine may be related to neuroactive ligand-receptor interaction, cholinergic synapse, and neutrophil extracellular trap formation. Real-time PCR results show that matrine can affect the expression level of related target genes. Conclusionmatrine has a certain therapeutic effect on IBD and can affect the inflammatory response of IBD. Its therapeutic effect may be related to neuroactive ligand-receptor interaction and other pathways.
