OBJECTIVE To explore the main factors influencing the blood concentration of duloxetine， and provide a scientific basis for the individualized use of duloxetine. METHODS Retrospective analysis was conducted on 434 inpatients with depressive disorders at the First Hospital of Hebei Medical University， who were treated with duloxetine and underwent blood concentration monitoring between January 2022 and April 2024. The study examined the impact of various factors， including gender， age， body mass index （BMI）， gene phenotypes， combined medication， drug type （original/generic）， and genotyping results of gene single nucleotide polymorphism loci， on blood concentration and the concentration-to-dose （C/D） after dose adjustment. RESULTS The blood concentration of duloxetine was 76.65 （45.57， 130.31） ng/mL， and C/D was 0.96 （0.63， 1.60） ng·d/（mL·mg）. The blood concentration of duloxetine was positively correlated with the daily dose of administration （R2＝0.253 7， P＜0.001）. Blood concentration of duloxetine in 38.94% of patients exceeded the recommended range specified in the guidelines. Gender， age， BMI， combined use of CYP2D6 enzyme inhibitors， and CYP2D6 and CYP1A2 phenotypes had significant effects on C/D of duloxetine （P＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS The patient’s age， gender， BMI， combined medication， and genetic phenotypes are closely related to the blood concentration of duloxetine.

【Objective】 To develop a clinical prediction model based on ⁶⁸Ga-prostate-specific membrane antigen-11 (⁶⁸Ga-PSMA-11), positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) and multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) parameters to stratify prostate cancer patients undergoing targeted biopsy, so as to avoid unnecessary systematic biopsy. 【Methods】 A total of 96 clinically significant prostate cancer (csPCa) patients who underwent ⁶⁸Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT and mpMRI prior to prostate targeted biopsy with systematic biopsy during Jan.2020 and Feb.2023 in Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital were retrospectively analyzed.By univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses, maximum standard uptake value (SUVmax) in ⁶⁸Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT and minimum apparent diffusion coefficien (ADCmin) in mpMRI, as well as clinical parameters were evaluated to identify the independent predictors correlative with the effective diagnosis of targeted biopsy, and a clinical prediction model was constructed. 【Results】 Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that SUVmax (OR=0.878, 95%CI: 0.804-0.959, P=0.004) and ADCmin (OR=1.005, 95%CI:1.001-1.010, P=0.027) were independent predictors of the effective diagnosis of targeted biopsy alone.The sensitivity, specificity, accuracy and area under the receiver operator characteristic curve (AUC) of the model were 0.80, 0.80, 0.83 and 0.84, respectively. 【Conclusion】 The clinical prediction model based on ⁶⁸Ga-PSMA-11 PET/CT and mpMRI parameters is helpful to improve the effective diagnosis of targeted biopsy alone, and has practical value to stratify patients with csPCa so as to safely avoid systematic biopsy and effectively balance the benefits and risks.

Objective To understand the recognition and coping strategies of ICU nurses on post-ICU syndrome in family members of patients during hospitalisation so as to provide a reference for handling post-ICU syndrome of the family members of patients.Methods A phenomenological approach within qualitative research was adopted.Semi-structured in-depth interviews were conducted with 15 ICU nurses from 3 wards of the Second Affiliated Hospital of South China University.Colaizzi 7-step method was applied to analyse and refine the interview data themes.Results Three main themes and nine sub-themes were identified and they were insufficient cognition of post-ICU syndrome of the family members(limited understanding of post-ICU syndrome in family members,difficulty in recognising or ignoring symptoms,uncertainty about the impact of post-ICU syndrome),active coping with post-ICU syndrome of the family members(coping mainly through listening and explaining,coping mainly through verbal and physical actions,diligent patient care)and various factors hindering nurses'coping with post-ICU syndrome of the family members(compassion fatigue,high ICU work intensity,limited contact time with family members).Conclusion ICU nurses have insufficient understanding of post-ICU syndrome with the family members of patients during hospitalisation.It requires to enhance a comprehensive understanding in ICU nurses about post-ICU syndrome of the family members of patients and to optimise coping strategies to alleviate negative emotions of the family members.Additionally,efforts should be made to overcome factors that hinder nurses'coping with post-ICU syndrome of the family members of patients and to promote a harmonious relationship between medical staff and patients.

Objective To explore clinical effect of Jiawei Sangju decoction combined with oseltamivir in the treatment of influenza B complicated with benign acute childhood myositis(BACM).Methods Sixty children with influenza B complicated with BACM hospitalized in the Department of Pediatrics,Wenzhou Hospital of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine from January 2021 to January 2024 were selected and divided into control group and study group according to random number table method,with 30 cases in each group.The control group was treated with oseltamivir,and the study group was treated with Jiawei Sangju decoction combined with oseltamivir.The clinical efficacy,symptom improvement time and aspartate transaminase(AST),alanine transaminase(ALT),creatine kinase(CK),creatine kinase isozyme(CK-MB),lactate dehydrogenase(LDH)and myoglobin(Mb)before and after treatment were compared between two groups.Results After treatment,the total effective rate of study group was significantly higher than that of control group(χ2=5.455,P=0.020).The duration of fever and leg pain relief in study group were significantly shorter than those in control group(P<0.05).After 5 days of treatment,the levels of AST,CK,CK-MB,LDH and Mb in two groups were significantly lower than before treatment(P<0.05),and the levels of AST,CK,CK-MB,LDH and Mb in study group were significantly lower than those in control group(P<0.05).Conclusion Jiawei Sangju decoction combined with oseltamivir can improve the symptoms of influenza B with BACM,reduce the levels of muscle enzyme and Mb,and have a positive effect on the prognosis of children.

Objective To explore the regulation of Chaihuang Qingyi Huoxue Granule on intestinal microecological changes in rats with severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) and the potential mechanism for its treatment of SAP. Methods Forty-eight rats were randomly divided into sham operation group (SHAM),SAP model group (SAP),and Chaihuang Qingyi Huoxue Granule (CH)group,with 16 rats in each group. Each group was further divided into 12 h and 24 h subgroups. The SAP model was induced by retrograde injection of 5％ sodium taurocholate into the pancreaticobiliary duct through duodenal wall. The SHAM and SAP groups received normal saline by gavage,while the CH group received 1.2 g·kg-1 Chaihuang Qingyi Huoxue Granule solution by gavage every six hours. At 12 h and 24 h after operation,eight rats from each group were sacrificed to collect abdominal aortic blood,pancreatic and ileal tissues for analysis. Ascites,pancreatic and ileal tissues were observed. Serum amylase(AMY) and lipase (LPS) levels were measured biochemically. Pathological changes in pancreatic and ileal tissues were investigated by HE staining. Claudin-1 protein expression in ileal tissue was detected by Western Blot. Changes in the intestinal flora of ileocecal contents were analyzed by 16S rDNA high-throughput sequencing. Results Compared to the SHAM group at the same time points,the SAP group exhibited extensive pancreatic edema and necrosis. Serum AMY and LPS levels,pancreatic and ileal histopathological scores increased,and Claudin-1 protein expression in ileal tissue markedly decreased (all P<0.05). The differences in abundance of microbial community increased,while the evenness of community composition reduced. The microbial richness showed no significant change (P>0.05),but the microbial diversity decreased(P<0.05). Proteobacteria were dominant intestinal bacteria. Relative abundances of Oscillospira,Ruminococcus,Bifidobacterium,and Bacteroides S24-7 decreased,whereas relative abundances of Shigella and Allobaculum increased. The differences in abundance of microbial community reduced,and the evenness of community composition increased. The microbial richness showed no significant change(P>0.05),but the microbial diversity increased (P<0.05). Firmicutes and Bacteroidetes were the dominant intestinal bacteria. Relative abundances of Oscillospira,Ruminococcus,Bifidobacterium,and Bacteroides S24-7 increased,whereas relative abundances of Shigella and Allobaculum decreased. After the intervention of CH,pathological damage in ileal tissue was improved. The expression of Claudin-1 protein in the intestinal mucosal barrier increased compared to the model group(P<0.05). The differences in abundance of microbial community reduced,and the evenness of community composition increased. CH group showed an increase in some beneficial bacteria and decrease in pathogenic bacteria compared to model group. Conclusion Chaihuang Qingyi Huoxue Granule may reduce pancreas injury in rats with SAP,which may be involved in modulating the intestinal microecology and improving intestinal mucosal barrier function.

Objective:To compare the clinical effect of transpedicular impaction and grafting of allogeneic bone containing enriched bone marrow combined with posterior internal fixation and posterior subtotal vertebrectomy combined with posterior internal fixation in the treatment of stage III Kümmell′s disease.Methods:A retrospective cohort study was made on clinical data of 40 patients with stage III Kümmell′s disease admitted to Zhengzhou Orthopedic Hospital from June 2015 to December 2018. There were 10 males and 30 females, at age range of 57-79 years［(67.7±6.1)years］. A total of 19 patients were treated by transpedicular impaction and grafting of allogeneic bone containing enriched bone marrow combined with posterior internal fixation (impaction bone graft group), and 21 patients by posterior subtotal vertebrectomy combined with posterior internal fixation (subtotal vertebrectomy group). Operation time and intraoperative blood loss were compared between the two groups. Degree of pain, lumbar dysfunction and degree of kyphosis were evaluated by visual analogue scale (VAS), Japanese Orthopedic Association (JOA) score and kyphotic Cobb angle before operation, at 1 week after operation and at the last follow-up. Bone healing time was compared between the two groups. The complications of the two groups were observed.Results:All patients were followed up for 25-64 months［(40.6±10.4)months］. Operation time and intraoperative blood loss were (130.0±10.1)minutes and (284.5±43.5)ml in impaction bone graft group, lower than those in subtotal vertebrectomy group［(253.8±33.2)minutes, (889.1±95.7)ml］(both P<0.01). There were no significant differences in VAS, JOA score or kyphotic Cobb angle between the two groups before operation, at 1 week after operation and at the last follow-up (all P>0.05). Both VAS and JOA score showed significant differences within each group at any time point (all P<0.01). In both groups, the kyphotic Cobb angle reduced significantly at 1 week after operation when compared with that before operation (all P<0.01), and the angle showed a slight increase at the last follow-up, but remained significantly lower than that before operation (all P<0.01). There were no relapse of pain or aggravation of kyphosis. Bone healing time in impaction bone graft group［4.4(4.0, 5.0)months］was significantly shorter than that in subtotal vertebrectomy group［6.4(5.2, 8.1)months］( P<0.01). There were 2 patients with delayed healing of surgical incision in impaction bone graft group, with the complication rate of 11%. There were 2 patients with dural tear and 3 patients with delayed healing of surgical incision in subtotal vertebrectomy group, with the complication rate of 24%. The complication rate was not statistically significant between the two groups ( P>0.05). No loosening or breakage of internal fixation was observed during the follow-up. Conclusions:Transpedicular impaction and grafting of allogeneic bone containing enriched bone marrow combined with posterior internal fixation and posterior subtotal vertebrectomy combined with posterior internal fixation are effective in the treatment of stage III Kümmell disease. However, the former can shorten the operation time, reduce the intraoperative blood loss and accelerate the healing of injured vertebral bone, suggesting a relatively minimally invasive surgical method for reconstruction and maintenance of spinal biomechanical stability.

Objective:To investigate the clinical value of conventional ultrasound combined with automated breast volume scanner (ABVS) in predicting axillary lymph node metastasis (ALNM) of patients with invasive ductal carcinoma.Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed in 96 patients in the General Hospital of Eastern Theater Command from January 2014 to December 2020. All patients were examined by conventional ultrasound and ABVS before treatment. The patients were divided into the ALNM group and non-axillary lymph node metastasis (N-ALNM) group according to the postoperative pathological results. The differences of ultrasound parameters between the two groups were compared, and Logistic regression was used to analyze the independent predictive factors of ALNM. The ROC curve was plotted to evaluate the diagnostic efficacy for ALNM.Results:Compared with the N-ALNM group, the ALNM group had the characteristics of larger long diameters, unclear boundary, uneven internal echo, Adler blood flow grade Ⅱ-Ⅲ and retraction phenomenon (all P<0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that the long diameter, uneven internal echo, and retraction phenomenon were independent predictors of ALNM ( OR=1.051, 4.055, 3.493, all P<0.05). The area under curve of ALNM was 0.752(0.653-0.834), the sensitivity and specificity were 54.7% and 83.7%, respectively. Conclusions:The long diameter, uneven internal echo, and retraction phenomenon measured by conventional ultrasound and ABVS are independent predictors of ALNM. The combination of the three can provide imaging references for the evaluation of ALNM of breast cancer.

Objective:To investigate the value of ultrasound in predicting pathological complete response(PCR) of breast cancer patients after neoadjuvant chemotherapy(NAC).Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed in 125 patients(127 breast cancer masses) who underwent NAC in General Hospital of Eastern Theater Command from January 2014 to December 2020. All patients underwent ultrasound examination before and after NAC. The patients were divided into PCR group and non-pathological complete response(NPCR) group according to the postoperative pathological results. The differences of ultrasound parameters between the PCR group and NPCR group before NAC were compared, and Logistic regression was used to analyze the independent predictive factors of PCR. The ROC curve was plotted to evaluate the diagnostic efficacy in predicting PCR.Results:Before NAC, the longest diameter of breast cancer in the PCR group was smaller than that in the NPCR group ( P<0.05). There were significant differences in tumor shape, boundary, angulation/crab foot sign, and lateral acoustic shadowing between the two groups (all P<0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that the longest tumor diameter, clear boundary, and lateral acoustic shadowing were independent predictors of PCR( OR=0.935, 0.321, 5.710, all P<0.05). The area under curve(AUC) of PCR was 0.810 (95% CI=0.731-0.874), the sensitivity and specificity were 61.8% and 88.2% respectively. Conclusions:The longest tumor diameter, boundary, and lateral acoustic shadow assessed by ultrasound are independent predictors of PCR. The combination of the three parameters can provide imaging references for the clinical treatment of breast cancer.
