Objective To observe the repair effect and mechanism of Danhuang Powder-containing serum on high glucose-induced vascular endothelial cell injury.Methods Danhuang Powder-containing serum was prepared.Human umbilical vein endothelial cells(HUVECs)were cultured to be divided into control group,recombinant human epidermal growth factor(called"growth factor"for short)group,Danhuang Powder group,high glucose group,high glucose+growth factor group,and high glucose+Danhuang Powder group.After corresponding intervention in each group for 48 hours,the cell ultrastructure and autophagy were observed under transmission electron microscope,apoptosis was detected by flow cytometry,and the protein expression levels of vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF),epidermal growth factor(EGF)and basic fibroblast growth factor(bFGF)in the cells were detected by Western Blot.Results(1)The intra-mitochondrial ridges in the control group were clearly visible,autophagosomes and autolysosomes were fewer;mitochondria in the high glucose group were swollen and irregular,and appeared vacuolated;and the more typical autophagy-like structures were seen in the high glucose+Danhuang Powder group.(2)Compared with the high glucose group and high glucose+growth factor group,the apoptosis rate of cells in the high glucose+Danhuang Powder group was significantly decreased(P<0.05).(3)Compared with the high glucose group and the high glucose+growth factor group,the protein expression levels of VEGF,EGF and bFGF in the cells of the high glucose+Danhuang Powder group were significantly increased(P<0.05).Conclusion Danhuang Powder-containing serum can reduce the high glucose-induced damage in HUVEC cells,and its mechanism may be related to the activation of mitochondrial autophagy,and the inhibition of apoptosis,as well as the up-regulation of the expression of VEGF,EGF and bFGF.

Objective:To analyze the current situation and core issues of medical escort services in Shanghai through a two-side (supply and demand) survey, so as to provide references for formulating targeted strategies for the standardized management of this industry.Methods:From June to August 2024, a questionnaire survey on awareness of escort services was conducted among patients at 16 tertiary public hospitals in Shanghai. The survey covered patients′ basic information, their needs, concerns, and expectations regarding escort services. Concurrently, a specialized questionnaire was administered to trainees enrolled in Shanghai Open University′s " elderly care escort service provider" program. This survey covered the companions′ basic profiles, types of service recipients, relevant qualifications, training programs, and standardized service procedures. Data were organized and analyzed by using SPSS 26.0 software.Results:The survey on awareness of patient escort services yielded 855 valid responses, achieving a 92.13% response rate. Among these 855 patients, the primary demand for escort services was queue management for examinations (515 cases, 71.47%), followed by assistance with registration/payment/medication pickup (528 cases, 61.74%). 587 patients (68.66%) expressed willingness to use the service. The main concerns included lack of professional expertise among attendants (538 cases, 62.92%), trust issues (494 cases, 57.78%), and fee concerns (456 cases, 53.33%). Expectations for service supervision primarily focused on service quality and safety (618 cases, 72.28%) and pricing standards (609 cases, 71.23%). The specialized survey on medical escort services yielded 194 valid questionnaires, achieving a 100.00% response rate. Among the 194 medical escort service providers, 82.5% (160 individuals) were full-time practitioners, 31.96% (62 individuals) held relevant qualification certificates, and 72.68% (144 individuals) had participated in related training programs. Regarding standardized services, 74.74% (145 individuals) of medical escorts obtained patient information prior to service delivery, 56.70% (110 individuals) signed agreements with users, and 67.01% (130 individuals) maintained records of their medical escort services.Conclusions:Shanghai′s medical escort services had achieved some success, yet faced challenges including high patient demand coupled with low trust, insufficient certification and training for escorts, and an urgent need to improve service standardization. It is recommended that medical institutions further strengthen their primary role in managing escort services. By enhancing top-level design, establishing standardized training and certification mechanisms, implementing comprehensive quality monitoring and credit evaluation systems, and other measures, they could elevate the professional competence of practitioners, reinforce patient safety safeguards, and promote the high-quality, standardized development of escort services.
