OBJECTIVE To conduct a rapid and comprehensive evaluation of commonly used oral dihydropyridine calcium channel blockers （DHP CCBs） in Guangxi， and provide scientific basis for clinical medication and drug selection in medical institutions. METHODS Based on the actual drug use data of public medical institutions at the second level and above in Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region， and based on the national centralized collection catalog， commonly used oral DHP CCBs were selected. The Professional Committee of Evidence-based Pharmacy of the Guangxi Pharmaceutical Association organized relevant experts from multiple medical institutions in the region to conduct a quantitative scoring of the selected oral DHP CCBs from five key dimensions of pharmaceutical characteristics， effectiveness， safety， economy， and other attributes， by referring to the Quick Guideline for Drug Evaluation and Selection in Chinese Medical Institutions （the Second Edition）， combined with the latest evidence-based medical research results， and widely soliciting suggestions from clinical and pharmaceutical experts. Finally， the Guangxi Expert Consensus on Rapid Comprehensive Evaluation of Oral Dihydropyridine Calcium Channel Blockers in the Treatment of Cardiovascular Disease was formulated. RESULTS A total of 30 commonly used oral DHP CCBs were selected. Among them， Amlodipine besylate tablets （Huizhi） demonstrated superior comprehensive performance （81.79 points）， excelling particularly in pharmaceutical properties， effectiveness and other attributes. The compound scores of Amlodipine besylate tablets （Chongqing Yaoyou） and Amlodipine besylate tablets （Suzhou Dongrui） ranked second and third respectively， with scores of 81.66 and 81.60 points. CONCLUSIONS This consensus can provide guidance and decision-making support for the rational clinical application of oral DHP CCBs in Guangxi Region and the selection of drug directories in medical institutions.

Objective: To investigate the intentions of mothers of ageappropriate girls in Qingdao to vaccinate their daughters against human papillomavirus (HPV), so as to provide theoretical guidance for targeted health education in the future. Methods: A multistage random sampling method was adopted to conduct a crosssectional study among 2 244 mothers of girls aged 12-14 years in Qingdao from March to December 2023. The Mann-Whitney U test was used for group comparisons, and Logistic regression was performed to analyze the factors that influenced maternal intention to vaccinate their ageappropriate daughters against HPV. Results: Among the surveyed mothers, 89.22% (n=2 002) intended to vaccinate their daughters against HPV, and 68.58% (n=1 539) had fully vaccinated or had plans to complete it for themselves. The knowledge score of mothers intended to vaccinate their daughters was 10 (8, 11). The multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that mothers aged >45 years (OR=0.19), those with an annual family income of 60 000-<150 000 yuan (OR=0.65), 150 000-<300 000 yuan (OR=0.58), 300 000-500 000 yuan (OR=0.22), and those with higher knowledge scores (OR=0.90) were more likely to vaccinate their daughters (P<0.05). Mothers with a junior college or undergraduate degree (OR=1.66), those who never or occasionally screened for HPV (OR=1.58), those who were intended to be vaccinated, not planning to complete the fullcourse vaccination, or overaged and unvaccinated (OR=7.13), those who were not concerned about their daughters HPV infection (OR=2.54), and those whose daughters were not in adolescence (OR=1.93) were less intended to vaccinate their daughters (P<0.05). The primary reasons for vaccine hesitancy were vaccine safety concerns (65.06%), followed by the belief of mothers that "the children is to young, and can be vaccinated when they are older" (13.25%). Conclusions Mothers of eligible girls in Qingdao have relatively higher intentions to vaccinate their daughters against HPV, and willingness is influenced by factors such as the mothers vaccination status, knowledge level, and daughters development stage. It is recommended to strengthen targeted health education, improve the cognitive level and acceptance of mother, and increase the vaccination rate of HPV vaccines.

Objective To compare the benefits and drawbacks of primary patch expansion versus pericardial tube right ventricular-pulmonary artery connection in patients diagnosed with pulmonary atresia with ventricular septal defect (PA/VSD). Methods A retrospective study was conducted on patients diagnosed with PA/VSD who underwent primary right ventricular-pulmonary artery connection surgery at our center between 2010 and 2020. Patients were categorized into two groups based on the type of right ventricular-pulmonary artery connection: a pericardial tube group and a patch expansion group. Clinical data and imaging findings were compared between the two groups. Results A total of 51 patients were included in the study, comprising 31 males and 20 females, with a median age of 12.57 (4.57, 49.67) months. The pericardial tube group included 19 patients with a median age of 17.17 (7.33, 49.67) months, while the patch expansion group consisted of 32 patients with a median age of 8.58 (3.57, 52.72) months. In both groups, the diameter of pulmonary artery, McGoon index, and Nakata index significantly increased after treatment (P<0.001). However, the pericardial tube group exhibited a longer extracorporeal circulation time (P<0.001). The reoperation rate was notably high, with 74.51% of patients requiring further surgical intervention, including 26 (81.25%) patients in the patch expansion group and 12 (63.16%) patients in the pericardial tube group. No statistical differences were observed in long-term cure rates or mortality between the two groups (P＞0.005). Conclusion In patients with PA/VSD, both patch expansion and pericardial tube right ventricular-pulmonary artery connection serve as effective initial palliative treatment strategies that promote pulmonary vessel development and provide a favorable foundation for subsequent radical operations. However, compared to the pericardial tube approach, the patch expansion technique is simpler to perform and preserves some intrinsic potential for pulmonary artery development, making it the preferred procedure.

Objective To introduce a modified technique of right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT) reconstruction using a handmade bicuspid pulmonary valve crafted from expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE) and to summarize the early single-center experience. Methods Patients with complex congenital heart diseases (CHD) who underwent RVOT reconstruction with a handmade ePTFE bicuspid pulmonary valve due to pulmonary regurgitation at Guangdong Provincial People’s Hospital from April 2021 to February 2022 were selected. Postoperative artificial valve function and right heart function indicators were evaluated. Results A total of 17 patients were included, comprising 10 males and 7 females, with a mean age of (18.18±12.14) years and a mean body weight of (40.94±19.45) kg. Sixteen patients underwent reconstruction with a handmade valved conduit, with conduit sizes ranging from 18 to 24 mm. No patients required mechanical circulatory support, and no in-hospital deaths occurred. During a mean follow-up period of 12.89 months, only one patient developed valve dysfunction, and no related complications or adverse events were observed. The degree of pulmonary regurgitation was significantly improved post-RVOT reconstruction and during follow-up compared to preoperative levels (P<0.001). Postoperative right atrial diameter, right ventricular diameter, and tricuspid regurgitation area were all significantly reduced compared to preoperative values (P<0.05). Conclusion The use of a 0.1 mm ePTFE handmade bicuspid pulmonary valve for RVOT reconstruction in complex CHD is a feasible, effective, and safe technique.

Aim To investigate the effects of the phos-phodiesterase 8(PDE8)inhibitor PF-04957325 on learning and memory,anxiety and depression in Alzhe-imer's disease(AD)mice induced by Okadaic acid(OA),and to explore its mechanism.Methods Twenty-one 2-month-old male C57BL/6J mice were se-lected for the experiment and randomly divided into the control group,AD model group,and PDE8 inhibitor group(0.1 mg·kg-1).AD model was induced by bi-lateral hippocampal localization injection of OA(50 ng on each side)in the model and PDE8 inhibitor groups of mice.Two days after the injection of OA,PDE8 in-hibitor group was given 0.1 mg·kg-1 drug,while the AD model groups and control group were given with the same volume of vehicle for 21 consecutive days.On day 13 of inhibitor administration,behavioral tests re-lated to learning and memory abilities,anxiety and de-pressive behaviors were performed in mice.HE stai-ning was used to observe the morphology of neuronal cells in the DG,CA1,and CA3 regions of the hippo-campus of mice,and Western blot was used to detect the levels of phosphorylated Tau proteins at different sites within the hippocampus of mice as well as the ex-pression of proteins related to the PDE8/cAMP/CREB pathway.Results Compared with the control group,the Y-maze Spontaneous alternation,Recognition index of NOR and Latency of PAT were significantly shorter(P＜0.01),and Entries times、Time in the target quadrant of MWM were reduced(P＜0.05)in the AD model group,which showed a decrease in the ability of learning and memory,whereas the administration of PF-04957325 significantly improved the ability of learning and memory in the AD mice;mice in the AD model group showed a significant decrease in the num-ber of entries into the central area of the OFT and the time spent in the central area(P＜0.05),and a sig-nificant increase in the Immobility time of TST(P＜0.01),suggesting that the mice had anxiety and de-pression,and the administration of PF-04957325 did not improve the anxious behavior of the mice,but im-proved the depressed behavior to a certain extent;the hippocampus of the AD model group mice showed ker-nel solidification in the DG,CA1 and CA3 regions,and neurons were not neatly arranged,and the admin-istration of PF-04957325 could alleviate the damage of hippocampal nerve cells in mice.Compared with the control group,the phosphorylation levels of Tau protein Ser1 99,Ser396 and Ser202 sites in the hippocampus of mice in the AD model group were significantly in-creased(P＜0.01),the expression of PDE8A and PDE8B proteins was significantly increased(P＜0.01),and the expression of p-PKA/PKA and BDNF proteins was decreased(P＜0.05),after administra-tion of PF-04957325,the phosphorylation levels of Tau protein Ser396 and Ser202 sites were significantly re-duced(P＜0.01),PDE8A and PDE8B protein ex-pression was significantly decreased(P＜0.01),and p-PKA/PKA,p-CREB/CREB and BDNF protein ex-pression was significantly increased(P＜0.01).Con-clusion PDE8 inhibitor PF-04957325 can improve learning memory ability,reduce cognitive dysfunction,restore Tau protein function,and attenuate neuronal cell damage in the hippocampus of AD mice with amel-iorative effects.The mechanism of action may be relat-ed to the activation of PDE8/cAMP/CREB pathway and inhibition of Tau protein phosphorylation.

The emergence of high virulent mutant strains of infectious bursal disease virus(IBDV)becomes a serious threat to the poultry industry.However,the live attenuated IBDV vaccine can potentially revert to a virulent strain.Therefore,it is a necessary to develop safe and effective IB-DV-associated vaccines.The construction of a recombinant Marek's disease(MD)vaccine strain,CVI988,expressing the IBDV VP2 protein,can protect against disease induced by both IBDV and Marek's disease virus(MDV).Here,the IBDV-VP2 gene was integrated into the UL55 locus of CVI988 by bacterial artificial chromosome(BAC)technique,resulting in the recombinant virus CVI988 BAC-VP2.The recombinant virus was characterized by PCR,IFA and subsequently the bi-ological properties of the recombinant virus were investigated.The results showed that the recom-binant virus CVI988 BAC-VP2 was successfully rescued.The VP2 protein stably expressed in chick-en embryo fibroblasts(CEF).The growth kinetics and plague size assays showed that there was comparable replication ability between recombinant virus and parental virus.This study provides the basis for the development of a low-cost vaccine against both IBDV and MDV infections.

Objective:To investigate the correlation between morphological typing and monoclonality of bone marrow plasma cells,and explore the diagnostic value of plasma cell morphological typing for high-risk smoldering multiple myeloma(HR-SMM).Methods:The correlation between the morphological characteristics and the monoclonality of bone marrow plasma cells was analyzed in 84 patients with HR-SMM who treated in our hospital.The consistency of morphologically abnormal bone marrow plasma cells with serum free light chain(sFLC)ratio,next-generation sequencing(NGS)detection results,and its correlation with monoclonal plasma cells detected by flow cytometry(FCM)were further verified.The immunoglobulin types and levels of non-involved immunoglobulins in serum of the patients were detected,and the distribution of plasma cell clusters in patients with different disease was observed.Results:The mean percentage of mature plasma cells were decreased successively in the order of reactive plasmacytosis(RP)group,monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance(MGUS)group,smoldering multiple myeloma(SMM)group,HR-SMM group and multiple myeloma(MM)group;while the mean percentage of immature,primitive,reticular and flaming plasma cells were increased successively in the order of RP group,MGUS group,SMM group,and HR-SMM group,and the difference between any two groups was statistically significant(P＜0.05).The average proportion of abnormal plasma cells in the bone marrow of HR-SMM patients was 96.2％of the total plasma cells.The proportion of abnormal plasma cells were in good agreement with the sFLC ratio and the results of NGS detection in HR-SMM patients(kappa=0.879 and kappa=0.891,both＞0.75),and showed good correlation with the monoclonal plasma cells with immunophenotype of CD45-/CD38+/CD138+/CD56+/CD19-(γ=0.825).The levels of non-involved immunoglobulin in IgG,IgA and IgM type HR-SMM patients were all decreased by more than 25％compared with the normal reference range,and the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05).There was no significant difference in the distribution ratio of plasma cell clusters among different disease groups(P＞0.05).Conclusion:In HR-SMM patients,the immature,primitive,reticular and flaming plasma cells in bone marrow are considered as abnormal plasma cells,and they are correlated with monoclonal plasma cells.The proportion of abnormal plasma cells in total plasma cells of bone marrow and the reduction extent of non-involved immunoglobulin level in patients have certain reference value for the diagnosis of HR-SMM.

Background and Objective Accurate diagnosis of mucous cystic lesion(PCL)remains a clinical difficult.Both Carcinoembryonic antigen(CEA)and glucose(GLU)are reported to have ability to distinguish mucinous PCL from non-mucinous PCL,but the accuracy was limited.The objective of this study was to evaluate the value of cystic CEA combined with GLU in the diagnosis of mucinous PCL.Methods PCL patients who underwent pancreatic surgery and endoscopic ultrasonography guided fine-needle aspiration(EUS-FNA)were retrospectively collected from the First Affiliated Hospital of Naval Medical University.Clinical data and cystic fluid analysis of included PCLs patients were analyzed using receiver operator(ROC)curves.ROC analysis,sensitivity and specificity analyses were used to evaluate the value of CEA combined with GLU in the diagnosis of mucinous PCL.Results From January 2015 to December 2021,a total of 84 patients underwent cyst fluid CEA and GLU analysis,of whom 44(52.4％)had mucinous PCL and 40(47.6％)had non-mucinous PCL.The AUC for distinguishing mucinous from non-mucinous PCL by CEA was 0.82[(95％confidence interval(CI):0.72-0.92)].When 192 ng/mL was used as the cutoff level,the diagnostic sensitivity and specificity were 50％and 93％,respectively.Using 20 ng/mL as cutoff level,the diagnostic sensitivity increased to 80％and the specificity decreased to 68％.The AUC for the cystic GLU to distinguish mucinous from non-mucinous PCL was 0.73(95％CI:0.99-0.87),and the diagnostic sensitivity and specificity were 100％and 60％,respectively.When the cutoff level of CEA was 192 ng/mL,the AUC of CEA combined with GLU in the diagnosis of mucinous PCLs was 0.94(95％Cl:0.86-0.99),while when the cutoff level of CEA was 20 ng/mL,the AUC of CEA combined with Glu in the diagnosis of mucinous PCLs was 0.94(95％CI:0.85-0.99).The AUCs were significantly higher than the AUC with single diagnostic indicators.Conclusion When using the cutoff level of 192 ng/mL,cyst fluid CEA combined with GLU has high sensitivity and specificity in differentiating mucinous PCL from non-mucinous PCL,so it can be considered for clinical application.Lower CEA cutoff level(20 ng/mL)can improve the sensitivity of diagnosis.

Objective To explore the prevalent challenges in the construction and operation of SPD(Supply,Process-ing,and Distribution)projects for medical consumables and to propose corresponding strategies,thereby offering hospital supply managers insights for references.Methods Based on the questionnaire survey,the scope of difficulties was assessed across 23 hospitals.scores of each difficult point were calculated with descriptive statistics methods according to various stages,and the causes were analyzed.Results The overall scores of the survey ranged from 50 to 77 points,with the highest in each category being system interface docking(77 points),system stability(73 points),inventory carry-over(61 points),and the professional capability of SPD service provider(66 points).Conclusion In the construction and operation of SPD projects,it is essential to select an SPD model and service provider that aligns with the hospital's own characteristics.Establishing robust assessment mechanisms for SPD service providers and personnel training,as well as a comprehensive system audit and testing framework,can ensure system stability.Additionally,effective work assignment and performance evaluation of SPD personnel should be well-man-aged.

Objective:To optimize the accuracy of the intelligent hand hygiene system to monitor the hand hygiene timing warning, and provide a reference basis for healthcare workers to apply the intelligent hand hygiene system.Methods:Using a single-sample diagnostic pilot study method, 62 clinical nurses wearing smart badges working in the intensive care unit of Sir Run Run Shaw Hospital Affiliated to Zhejiang University School of Medicine in Hangzhou, from December 1, 2020 to December 31, 2021 were selected by convenience sampling methods. Direct observation was used as the gold standard. The accuracy of the warning timing of the intelligent hand hygiene monitoring system was optimized through adjusting the bed sensing rang,adjusting the time setting, adjusting the time settings according to the physical space of the ward and adding posture recognition.Results:The sensitivity of adjusting the bed sensing range was 0.935 (95% CI 0.918-0.949); the specificity was 0.008 (95% CI 0.001-0.074). The sensitivity of the temporal setting based on the physical space of the ward was 0.932(95% CI 0.915-0.946); the specificity was 0.205 (95% CI 0.087-0.410). The false positive rate with gesture recognition turned on was 86.1% higher than the false positive rate without gesture recognition which was 79.5%. The diagnostic OR based on the temporal setting of the physical space of the ward was the largest at 3.517(95% CI 1.213-10.193). Conclusions:The intelligent hand hygiene system exhibits high accuracy in monitoring hand hygiene timing. Adjusting the bed sensing range and individualizing the timing settings according to the physical space of the ward can improve the accuracy. Further optimization is needed for posture recognition to improve the accuracy.
