Objective To analyze the economic cost of self-monitoring of gestational diabetes mellitus, and provide a basis for measuring the economic burden of gestational diabetes mellitus, and to provide a reference for the formulation of intervention development and the adjustment of resource allocation. Methods The individual economic cost of self-monitoring for gestational diabetes mellitus was measured based on a decision tree model, and the total economic cost of self-monitoring for gestational diabetes mellitus in Beijing was estimated. The uncertainty of the model parameters was analyzed using one-way sensitivity analysis. Results The average individual economic cost of gestational diabetes self-monitoring was 1184 RMB, and the individual cost incurred by choosing different types of blood glucose meters ranged from 403 to 18 000 RMB. The average individual economic cost of finger-stick blood glucose monitoring was 606 RMB and the average individual economic cost of continuous glucose monitoring was 2 374 RMB. The total economic cost of gestational diabetes self-monitoring in Beijing was 23.818 0 million RMB, and the total economic cost incurred by choosing different types of blood glucose meters ranged from 0.292 5 to 9.027 9 million RMB. The proportion of the finger-stick blood glucose monitoring had the greatest impact on the robustness of the results. Conclusion Finger-stick blood glucose monitoring is still the dominant self-monitoring method and is less costly than continuous glucose monitoring. Self-monitoring of pregnant women with gestational diabetes mellitus incurs certain economic cost and causes an economic burden on society.

Objective To summarize and explore the individualized surgical treatment strategy and prognosis of anomalous aortic origin of coronary artery (AAOCA). Methods The clinical data of children with AAOCA admitted to Shanghai Children's Medical Center from March 2018 to August 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. Results A total of 17 children were enrolled, including 13 males and 4 females, with a median age of 88 (44, 138) months and a median weight of 25 (18, 29) kg. All patients received operations. The methods of coronary artery management included coronary artery decapitation in 9 patients, coronary artery transplantation in 5 patients and coronary artery perforation in 3 patients. One patient with severe cardiac insufficiency (left ventricular ejection fraction 15%) received mechanical circulatory assistance after the operation for 12 days. No death occurred in the early postoperative period, the average ICU stay time was 4.3±3.0 d, and the total hospital stay was 14.4±6.1 d. All the children received regular anticoagulation therapy for 3 months after discharge. The median follow-up time was 15 (13, 24) months. All patients received regular anticoagulation therapy for 3 months after discharge. No clinical symptoms such as chest pain and syncope occurred again. The cardiac function grade was significantly improved compared with that before operation. Imaging examination showed that the coronary artery blood flow on the operation side was unobstructed, and no restenosis occurred. Conclusion AAOCA is easy to induce myocardial ischemia and even sudden cardiac death. Once diagnosed, operation should be carried out as soon as possible. According to the anatomic characteristics of coronary artery, the early effect of individualized surgery is satisfactory, and the symptoms of the children are significantly improved and the cardiac function recovers well in the mid-term follow-up.

OBJECTIVE To test and compare the median effective dose(ED50) of ciprofol for gastroscope in patients of different genders and ages. METHODS Patients who planed to undergo gastroscope examination and treatment from March 2023 to April 2023 were selected, and divided into four groups according to stratified random method: N1 group(non-elderly male patients), N2 group(non-elderly female patients), N3 group(elderly male patients), and N4 group(elderly female patients). All patients received intravenous injection of 0.1 μg·kg−1 sufentanil followed by injection of the test dose of ciprofol according to Dixon’s modified sequential method. Gastroscope was performed after the disappearance of the eyelash reflex. The initial dose of ciprofol in all four groups was 0.4 mg·kg−1, and the ratio of adjacent doses was 1∶1.1. The next patient would receive a 10% increase in the dose of ciprofol if the patient experienced positive reactions such as coughing, frowning, and body movements during the endoscopy process. Otherwise, it would be judged as a negative reaction, and the next patient would receive a 10% decrease in the dose of ciprofol. The transition from a positive reaction to a negative reaction was defined as a turning point, and the study was terminated when seven turning points occurred. Hemodynamic parameters, oxygen saturation and adverse reactions were recorded at different time points. The Probit regression analysis method was used to calculate the ED50 of ciprofol for four groups. RESULTS The ED50 of ciprofol combined with 0.1 μg·kg−1 sufentanil for gastroscope in the non-elderly men, non-elderly women, elderly men, and elderly women were 0.409, 0.373, 0.356, 0.327 mg·kg−1, respectively. The ED50 of ciprofol in the N1 group was significantly higher compared with the N2 group and N3 group(P<0.05). The ED50 of ciprofol in the N4 group was significantly lower compared with the N2 group and N3 group(P<0.05). CONCLUSION The ED50 of ciprofol is significantly different among gastroscope patients of different genders and ages, which is lower in female patients than in male patients, and is lower in older patients than in non-elderly patients.

OBJECTIVE To explore the effect of single dose and multiple doses of silibinin on the in vivo pharmacokinetics of nevirapine in rats. METHODS Thirty male SD rats were randomly divided into blank control group, multiple administration of low-dose group(30 mg·kg−1) , multiple administration of high-dose group(100 mg·kg−1), single administration low-dose group(30 mg·kg−1) , and single administration high-dose group(100 mg·kg−1). Blood samples were collected to determine the concentration of nevirapine and its metabolites in rat plasma after an oral administration of 10 mg·kg−1 nevirapine. The kinetic parameters of nevirapine and its metabolites in each group were calculated by DAS and analyzed statistically. RESULTS Compared with the blank control group, multiple doses of 100 mg·kg−1·d−1 silibinin significantly increased the AUC of nevirapine by 61.78%, Cmax by 124.62% and decreased the clearance rate to 64.11%; multiple doses of 30 mg·kg−1·d−1 silibinin significantly increased the Cmax of nevirapine by 84.85%; a single dose of 100 mg·kg−1 or 30 mg·kg−1 silibinin significantly increased the Cmax of nevirapine by 65.19% and 32.12%, respectively. The metabolic ratio of 12-hydroxy-nervirapine was decreased by 31.5% by multiple doses of 100 mg·kg−1·d−1 silibinin where the pharmacokinetic parameters of 4-carboxyl-nervirapine remained unchanged. CONCLUSION Silibinin significantly affects the pharmacokinetics of nevirapine in rats. The drug-drug interaction should be considered when nevirapine and silibinin are concomitant.
