Objective To establish the argatroban drug use evaluation(DUE)criteria and provide reference for the rational use of argatroban in clinical practice.Methods Based on the domestic and foreign drug instructions of argatroban,referring to relevant guidelines and literature,the DUE standard rules were established by expert consultation.Using the established standard rules,the medical records of argatroban in the Fuzhou First Hospital Affiliated with Fujian Medical University from August 2020 to August 2022 were evaluated for the rationality of medication.Results A total of 368 medical records were included,the rational rate of drug use was 48.64％,and the irrational drug use was mainly without indications(46.19％)and inappropriate combination of drugs(4.35％).Conclusion The rational rate of argatroban clinical use in the hospital is not high,and the problems mainly include off-indication drug use and unreasonable combination drug use.Through the establishment and clinical application of DUE standard rules,the clinical use of argatroban can be further standardized and the ability of rational drug use can be improved.

Objective To explore the potential categories and influencing factors of the fear of progression in patients with inflammatory bowel diseases(IBD).Methods IBD patients who received inpatient treatment in a tertiary hospital in Nanjing from July 2022 to July 2023 were selected as the study subjects by convenience sampling method.The General Demographic Information Questionnaire,the Chinese version of the Fear of Progression Questionnaire-Short Form(FoP-Q-SF),the Chinese version of Inflammatory Bowel Disease Self-efficacy Scale(IBD-SES),and Social Support Rating Scale(SSRS)were administered to the participants.We applied one-way ANOVA and Logistic regression analysis to identify the factors associated with the potential categories of the fear of progression.Results A total of 303 retumed questionnaires(out of the 310)were valid,resulting an effective response rate of 97.74％.According to the results of latent profile analysis,we classified the respondents into 3 categories by the fear of progression,namely"low risk fear of disease adaptation group"(n=127,41.91％),"medium risk fear of illness distress group"(n=139,45.88％),"high risk fear of dysfunction group"(n=37,12.21％).3 groups showed statistically significant differences in permanent address,self-rated financial pressure,current disease status and self-efficacy(P＜0.05).Conclusion Patients with IBD had obvious differences in characteristics on the fear of progression.Nursing personnel should formulate personalized intervention strategies based on the classification characteristics of the fear of progression of IBD patients.Moreover,nurses should focus on improving patients'self-efficacy and promoting patients to treat medical care,stress and emotion management correctly.

BACKGROUND:The repair process of skin trauma is complex and susceptible to infection,easy to lead to poor healing,is the current difficulty and hot spot in wound repair research,and has received extensive attention in the fields of traditional Chinese medicine and tissue engineering. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effect of moxibustion and reduced graphene oxide/cerium oxide nanocomposite on promoting the healing of infectious wounds. METHODS:(1)Reduced graphene oxide/cerium dioxide nanocomposites with mass ratios of 2:1,1:1 and 1:2 were synthesized by hydrothermal method.The resulting composites were recorded as G2C1,G1C1 and G1C2,respectively.The photothermal properties,cytotoxicity and antibacterial properties of the three kinds of materials were tested.After taking moxa sticks,three kinds of moxibustion distances were set(3.0-3.5 cm,recorded as moxibustion 1;2.5-3.0 cm,recorded as moxibustion 2;2.0-2.5 cm,recorded as moxibustion 3).Moxibustion was applied to the surface of human skin for 10 minutes to detect the photothermal properties.The antibacterial properties of moxibustion were tested at three different distance intervals.Simultaneously,the back body surface infrared imaging of rats with different mass concentrations of G1C1 material,moxibustion(three kinds of moxibustion distances)and moxibustion 2+G1C1 material was detected.(2)Sixty male Sprague-Dawley rats were selected to model the wound of Staphylococcus aureus infection.48 hours later,they were randomly divided into 10 groups with 6 rats in each group:control group(did not receive any treatment),mupirocin group,moxibustion 2+G1C1 group,moxibustion 1 group,moxibustion 2 group,moxibustion 3 group and 60,80,100,and 120 μg/mL G1C1 groups(The G1C1 group was given 808 nm near-infrared laser irradiation for 10 min/time,and the G1C1 suspension was loaded on the wound surface before each treatment.Each group of moxibustion underwent in-situ suspension moxibustion,and the intervention time was 10 min/time.Moxibustion 2+G1C1 group was loaded with G1C1 suspension on the wound surface before each treatment,and moxibustion was suspended in situ with moxa strips,and the intervention time was 10 min/time).The frequency of treatment was 2 days once.Wound healing,wound colony count and repair were detected after 7 days of intervention. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)The three kinds of reduced graphene oxide/cerium dioxide nanocomposites had good photothermal properties,and the higher the mass concentration of the composites,the better the photothermal properties.The temperature of the moxibustion 2 group reached 47.6 ℃for 10 minutes without causing thermal damage,which was more suitable for animal experiments.The results of co-culture with NIH-3T3 cells exhibited that 60,80,and 100 μg/mL G1C1 had good biocompatibility.The results of a co-culture experiment with Staphylococcus aureus suspension displayed that G2C1,G1C1 and G1C2 had good antibacterial activity,among which G1C1 group demonstrated excellent antibacterial performance,and the antibacterial rate reached 100％when its mass concentration was 80 μg/mL.60-120 μg/mL G1C1 could effectively remove Staphylococcus aureus biofilm,and the higher the material mass concentration,the better the removal effect.Moxibustion could also effectively remove Staphylococcus aureus biofilm,and the closer the moxibustion was,the better the removal effect.(2)Compared with the control group,the wound area of the mupirocin group,moxibustion 2 group,moxibustion 2+G1C1 group and 80,100 μg/mL G1C1 groups was significantly reduced on day 7 of treatment,and the quality of wound repair was better.Mupirocin,G1C1,moxibustion and moxibustion 2+G1C1 could effectively remove the residual bacteria on the wound surface,and the higher the mass concentration of G1C1,the lower the residual bacteria.Among them,the wound repair efficiency and bacterial residue of 80 μg/mL G1C1 group and moxibustion 2 group were very similar,and the wound repair efficiency of both was better than that of mupirocin group.In addition,it was also observed that the combination of materials and moxibustion had a better ability to clear wound bacteria than that used alone.(3)The results confirm that moxibustion,reduced graphene oxide/cerium dioxide nanocomposites and their combination have good anti-infection and wound healing effects.

Objective To establish the drug use evaluation(DUE)criteria for aspirin enteric-coated tablets and provide a reference for the rationally clinical application of aspirin enteric-coated tablets.Methods DUE criteria for aspirin enteric-coated tablets were established from three aspects of indications,medications and medication results with reference to drug instructions of aspirin enteric-coated tablets,related guidelines,expert consensus and literature,and through Delphi method.A retrospective analysis was conducted to evaluate the medical records of patients who took aspirin enteric-coated tablets from January 2021 to June 2022 in Fuqing Hospital affiliated to Fujian Medical University.Results A total of 1 071 medical records were included.683 cases fully met the DUE criteria,with a rational rate of 63.77％.Irrational drug use mainly included inappropriate indications(6.26％),off-label drug use without approval(28.48％),contraindications(1.03％),inappropriate usage and dosage(1.68％),drug interactions with potential clinical significance(0.65％)and other inappropriate drug use(2.71％).Conclusion The established DUE standard for aspirin enteric-coated tablets has strong scientific practicability and feasibility.The irrational rate of aspirin enteric-coated tablets in this hospital is high.Corresponding intervention measures should be formulated to ensure the safety of clinical medication.

Conclusion The medication compliance in patients with comorbidities of chronic diseases is associated with demographic factors, pharmacological factors, disease factors and psychosocial factors, mainly including living alone, adverse drug reactions, course of disease, number of comorbidities and medication beliefs.

Objective:To understand the loss to follow-up of children born to pregnant women with HIV infection (HIV-exposed children) and analyze its influencing factors in China in 2019.Methods:The data were collected from the follow-up records of pregnant women with HIV infection and their children reported by the national "Management Information System for the Prevention of HIV, syphilis and Hepatitis B Mother-to-Child Transmission" in 2019. HIV-exposed children were defined as those who were not followed up after birth or who were not followed up at 18 months of age and who were not followed up at 21 months of age. The univariate and multivariate influencing factors of loss to follow-up of children born to HIV-infected pregnant women were analyzed by χ2 test and logistic regression model. SPSS 25.0 software was used for statistical analysis. Results:The number of HIV-infected pregnant women was 5 039, the number of live-born children was 5 035, the number of loss to follow-up children within 18 months of age was 283, and the loss to follow-up rate children was 5.62%(283/5 035). The results of multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the rate of loss to follow-up of exposed children born to pregnant women who worked as farmers (animal husbandry and fishery) (a OR=0.34, 95% CI: 0.22-0.53), unmarried (a OR=0.47, 95% CI: 0.24-0.93), first marriage (a OR=0.38, 95% CI: 0.22-0.67), remarriage (a OR=0.36, 95% CI: 0.20-0.67) and cohabiting (a OR=0.47, 95% CI: 0.23-0.97), and knew they had HIV infection before this pregnancy (a OR=0.53, 95% CI: 0.40-0.70) was lower. Han nationality (a OR=1.52, 95% CI: 1.09-2.13), primary school (a OR=2.06, 95% CI: 1.10-3.89) and junior middle school (a OR=1.81, 95% CI: 1.03-3.17) educational level, non-use of antiviral drugs (a OR=6.21, 95% CI: 4.32-8.93) and delivery in township (street) level midwifery institutions (a OR=5.72, 95% CI: 1.61-20.27) had higher rates of loss to follow-up among infants born to HIV-infected pregnant women. Conclusions:HIV-exposed children still have a specific rate of loss to follow-up in China in 2019. In order to further reduce the rate of loss to follow-up, it is of great significance to improve the detection rate of HIV before pregnancy and the rate of antiviral drugs used in pregnant women with HIV infection, which is of great significance for the effective implementation of comprehensive intervention measures of prevention of mother-to-child transmission of HIV.

Thyroid carcinoma is closely related to environmental factors. Gene mutations and molecular biological changes of gland tissue caused by environmental changes are important factors inducing thyroid carcinoma. Although the molecular mechanism of thyroid carcinoma has not been fully elucidated,increasingly specific genetic changes and molecular markers for thyroid carcinoma have been discovered with the development of molecular biology techniques. This article reviews the recent progresses on the etiology,specific molecular markers,diagnosis and targeted therapies of thyroid carcinoma,so as to provide theoretical support for the clinical diagnosis and treatment of thyroid carcinoma.

Recently,the substance P(SP)/neurokinin-1 receptor(NK-1R)system has been found to be involved in various human pathophysiological disorders including the symptoms of coronavirus disease 2019(COVID-19).Besides,studies in the oncological field have demonstrated an intricate correlation between the upregulation of NK-1R and the activation of SP/NK-1R system with the progression of multiple carcinoma types and poor clinical prognosis.These findings indicate that the modulation of SP/NK-1R system with NK-1R antagonists can be a potential broad-spectrum antitumor strategy.This review updates the latest potential and applications of NK-1R antagonists in the treatment of human diseases and cancers,as well as the underlying mechanisms.Furthermore,the strategies to improve the bioavailability and efficacy of NK-1R antagonist drugs are summarized,such as solid dispersion systems,nanonization,and nanoencapsulation.As a radiopharmaceutical therapeutic,the NK-1R antagonist aprepitant was originally developed as radioligand receptor to target NK-1R-overexpressing tumors.However,combining NK-1R antagonists with other drugs can produce a synergistic effect,thereby enhancing the therapeutic effect,alleviating the symptoms,and improving patients'quality of life in several diseases and cancers.

Objective:To develop a risk prediction model of acute cerebral infarction (ACI) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).Methods:It was a cross-sectional study. The clinical data of 798 patients with T2DM hospitalized in the Department of Endocrinology and Neurology of Shanxi Bethune Hospital from August 2021 to October 2023 were collected. Based on whether they had concurrent ACI, the patients were divided into T2DM with ACI group (case group) and pure T2DM group (control group). The patients were then allocated to a training set ( n=558) and a validation set ( n=240) in a 7∶3 ratio by the sample functions in R software. LASSO regression was employed to screen and optimize variables, and a multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to establish the nomogram prediction model. The discriminative ability, calibration, and clinical usefulness of the risk prediction model were assessed with receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves, calibration curves, and decision curve analysis, respectively. Results:LASSO regression identified gender, age, systolic blood pressure, fasting plasma glucose (FPG), albumin (ALB), and carotid vascular condition as the variables for prediction. The multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that female ( OR=0.489, 95% CI: 0.308-0.778) and ALB ( OR=0.846, 95% CI: 0.795-0.901) were protective factors for ACI occurrence in T2DM patients, while age ( OR=1.051, 95% CI:1.025-1.077), systolic blood pressure ( OR=1.047, 95% CI: 1.034-1.059), FPG ( OR=1.185, 95% CI: 1.089-1.288), and carotid plaque ( OR=7.359, 95% CI: 3.050-17.756) were risk factors. The area under the ROC curve (AUC) for risk of ACI in the training set was 0.863(95% CI: 0.833-0.893), and it was 0.846(95% CI: 0.797-0.896) for the validation set. Calibration curves and the Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness-of-fit test indicated good model fit (training set χ2=8.311, P=0.404; validation set χ2=3.957, P=0.861). Decision curve analysis showed that the clinical effectiveness of the model was higher when the threshold probabilities of the training set and the validation set was 0.02-0.93 and 0.12-0.99, respectively. Conclusion:In this study, a prediction model of ACI risk in T2DM patients was successfully established.
