Objective:To review the clinical status based on the best evidence of drug administration in patients with dysphagia, systematically analyze the obstacle factors and promoting factors in the process of evidence transformation, and formulate reform strategies.Methods:Based on the evidence-based nursing research method and the guidance of the Ottawa Model of Research Use (OMRU), the review indicators were developed based on the best evidence. The current status of clinical practice behaviors of 223 patients and 75 nurses in the Neurology, Neurosurgery and Geriatric departments of the Affiliated Hospital of Jiangsu University were reviewed from July to December 2021.Based on the results of the review, qualitative interviews were conducted with 32 potential adopters, and content analysis was used to assess the barriers and contributing factors to the clinical translation of evidence in three aspects: evidence-based change, potential adopters and practice environment, so as to develop effective strategies.Results:Based on the 22 best evidence selected, the evidence-based team developed 25 review indicators to carry out clinical review, showing that the compliance rate of 16 indicators were less than 60%. By analyzing and summarizing the interview results of potential adopters, the main obstacles leading to the low compliance rate of nurses were analyzed as follows: evidence-based reform changed the traditional work mode, and the application of evidence was not convenient; at the level of potential adopters, nurses had poor knowledge and practice, heavy work burden, and low awareness of patients and caregivers; at the level of practice environment, there was lack of nursing norms and procedures for clinical transformation of evidence, and the channels of multi-disciplinary collaboration and communication were not smooth. The main promoting factors were the perfect supervision mechanism of evidence-based nursing projects, the evidence-based group had rich experience in evidence transformation, the management was willing to change, and the practitioners were good at innovation.Conclusions:There is still a large gap between the clinical practice and the best evidence of drug administration in patients with dysphagia. The promoting factors should be fully utilized to overcome the obstacles and implement improvements to promote the effective transformation of evidence into clinical practice.

Objective:To comprehensively understand the disease burden of liver cirrhosis and other chronic liver diseases caused by alcohol use in China from 1990 to 2019, as well as to predict the trends in disease burden from 2020 to 2030.Methods:The analysis utilized data from the Global Burden of Disease study in 2019 (GBD2019). Key indicators such as incidence rate, mortality rate, disability-adjusted life years (DALY), years of life lost due to premature mortality, and years lived with disability were selected to describe the disease burden of alcohol-related liver cirrhosis and other chronic liver diseases in China from 1990 to 2019. The estimated annual percentage change (EAPC) was used to depict the temporal trends in disease burden. Furthermore, a Bayesian age-period-cohort (BAPC) model was constructed using R software to predict the age-standardized incidence rate (ASIR) and age-standardized mortality rate (ASMR) of alcohol-related liver cirrhosis and other chronic liver diseases in China from 2020 to 2030.Results:From 1990 to 2019, the incidence of alcohol-related liver cirrhosis and other chronic liver diseases in China showed an upward trend, with an EAPC of 0.31% (95% CI: 0.10%-0.52%). However, the DALY declined, with an EAPC of -2.81% (95% CI: -2.92% - -2.70%). The ASMR showed a downward trend, with an EAPC of -2.55% (95% CI: -2.66% - -2.45%). The highest incidence of cirrhosis of liver caused by alcohol and other chronic liver diseases was reported in the age group of 35-49 years, while the ASMR increased gradually with age, with a significant rise after the age of 30. The age-standardized DALY rate peaked between the ages of 55 and 64. The disease burden indicators for males were consistently higher than those for females during the same period. According to the predictions of the BAPC model, from 2020 to 2030, the ASIR for cirrhosis of liver caused by alcohol and other chronic liver diseases in the entire population of China was projected to increase from 3.45/100 000 in 2020 to 3.78/100 000 in 2030, a growth of 9.57%. Conversely, the ASMR was expected to decrease from 1.45/100 000 in 2020 to 1.24/100 000 in 2030, a reduction of 14.48%. Conclusions:The disease burden of cirrhosis of liver caused by alcohol and other chronic liver diseases remained serious in China, especially in men and the middle-aged to elderly population. There is a pressing need to prioritize attention and resources towards these groups. Despite the projected decrease in ASMR, the ASIR continued to rise and is expected to persist in its upward trend until 2030.

This study using maltodextrin as raw material, 1%-5% polyvinylpyrrolidone K30 as template agent, 1%-5% ammonium bicarbonate as pore-forming agent, curcumin and ibuprofen as model drugs. Porous maltodextrin was prepared by template and pore-forming agent methods, respectively. The structure and drug delivery behavior of porous maltodextrin prepared by different technologies were comprehensively characterized. The results showed that the porous maltodextrin prepared by pore-forming agent method had larger specific surface area (6.449 4 m²·g^-1) and pore size (32.804 2 nm), which was significantly better than that by template agent method (3.670 2 m²·g^-1, 15.278 5 nm). The adsorption kinetics between porous maltodextrin prepared by pore-forming agent method and curcumin were suitable for quasi-first order adsorption kinetic model, and that between porous maltodextrin and ibuprofen were suitable for quasi-second order adsorption kinetic model. While the adsorption kinetics between porous maltodextrin prepared by template agent method and two model drugs were both suitable for the quasi-first order adsorption kinetic model. In addition, the dissolution behavior analysis showed that the porous maltodextrin prepared by the two technologies can significantly improve the dissolution behavior of insoluble drugs, and the drug release was both carried out by diffusion mechanism, which suitable for the Peppas kinetic release model, but the porous maltodextrin prepared by template agent method had a faster release rate. The change of nozzle diameter had no significant effect on the adsorption process and drug release behavior of porous maltodextrin. In conclusion, the porous maltodextrins prepared by two different technologies were both beneficial to the delivery of insoluble drugs, and the template agent method was the best for delivery of insoluble drugs. This study can provide theoretical basis for the preparation of porous particles, promote the application of porous particles in insoluble drugs, and improve the bioavailability of insoluble drugs.

Objective To construct curcumin pyrazole derivative by the reaction of diketone of curcumin and benzylhydrazine based on the above structure-activity relationship,and to explore its antioxidant activity to provide experimental basis for the development of curcumin antioxidant derivative.Methods Curcumin-N-substituted pyrazole derivative was synthesized from curcumin and benzylhydrazine.The structures of the derivative were confirmed by infrared spectroscopy(IR),nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy(1H-NMR,13C-NMR)and LC-MS.The antioxidant activity in vitro of the derivative was evaluated by determination of curcumin and its pyrazole derivative scavenging ability for 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl(DPPH)free radical and 2,2'-azino-bis-3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid(ABTS)free radical.Results Curcumin pyrazole derivative was successfully synthesized.Curcumin and its pyrazole derivative showed good free radical scavenging effects in the range of 4.6-73.6,6.25-100 μg·mL-1,respectively,with a significant dose-effect relationship.The half-maximal inhibition(IC50)values of curcumin and its pyrazole derivatives determined by DPPH method were 14.24,40.37 μg·mL-1,respectively,while the IC50 values of curcumin and its pyrazole derivatives determined by ABTS method were 36.65,19.26 μg·mL-1,respectively.Conclusion The antioxidant activity of β-dione of curcumin was retained through the substitution of the pyrazole ring,and the curcumin pyrazole derivative deserves further investigation as a potential antioxidant.

Objective:To carry out an overview of systematic reviews on interventions to prevent the recurrence of diabetic foot ulcer (DFU) patients.Methods:Systematic reviews or Meta-analysis on interventions to prevent DFU recurrence were electronically retrieved from databases such as China National Knowledge Infrastructure, WanFang Data, VIP, China Biology Medicine disc, Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) Evidence-Based Healthcare Center Database, Cochrane Library, PubMed, Embase, CINAHL and Web of Science. The search period was from database establishment to April 20, 2023. Two researchers independently searched and screened literature, and extracted data, and used AMSTAR 2 software and the quality evaluation criteria for systematic review of JBI Evidence-Based Healthcare Center to evaluate the methodological quality of the included literature. GRADE evaluation system was used for quality assessment of outcome indicators (DFU recurrence rate, effectiveness of measures to prevent DFU recurrence) .Results:A total of 24 systematic reviews were included. Studies showed that monitoring and intervention of foot skin temperature, therapeutic shoes or insoles, comprehensive intervention measures, and specific surgical methods could reduce the recurrence rate of DFU, while foot self-care, foot exercise, health education, and psychological intervention had no statistical effect on preventing DFU recurrence. The methodological quality of systematic reviews was generally low. The reports of four articles were relatively complete, 18 articles had certain defects, and two articles had serious defects. The evaluation of evidence quality showed that there were three pieces of moderate-quality evidence, seven pieces of low-quality evidence, and 30 pieces of extremely low-quality evidence.Conclusions:Existing evidence suggests that foot skin temperature monitoring and intervention, therapeutic shoes or insoles, comprehensive intervention measures, and specific surgical methods (such as Achilles tendon lengthening, metatarsophalangeal joint replacement, metatarsal head resection and so on) have a positive impact on preventing DFU recurrence. Rigorous and high standard research is still needed to verify the controversial issues, so as to provide reliable evidence for future clinical practice and studies.

Objective To observe the correlation between apparent diffusion coefficient(ADC)of sacroiliac joint and spondyloarthritis research consortium of Canada(SPARCC)score in ankylosing spondylitis(AS)patients with different grade sacroiliac joint inflammation.Methods MR examinations of sacroiliac joint were prospectively performed in 35 AS patients(AS group)and 30 healthy controls(HC group).The grade of sacroiliac joint inflammation and SPARCC score in AS group were evaluated according to MRI findings,and the patients were then further divided into bone marrow oedema(BMO)subgroup(n=19)and non-BMO subgroup(n=16)according to whether BMO presented under articular surface or not,and ADC of sacroiliac joint(ADCsacroiliac)were measured.Receiver operating characteristic curve was drawn,the area under the curve(AUC)was calculated to evaluate the efficacy of ADCsacroiliac for assessing AS sacroiliac joint inflammation grade.Pearson correlation analysis was performed to analyze the correlation between ADCsacroiliac and SPARCC score in AS patients with different grade sacroiliac joint inflammation.Results ADCsacroiliac in BMO subgroup and non-BMO subgroup was(4.85±1.44)×10-4 and(4.30±0.64)×10-4 mm2/s,respectively,being not significantly different(P＞0.05)but both higher than that in HC group([3.32±1.36]×10-4 mm2/s,both P＜0.05).The sensitivity of ADCsacroiliac for assessing grade of sacroiliac joint inflammation in AS patients was 49.44％,51.94％,73.06％and 60.50％,with specificity of 75.00％,78.92％,83.33％and 66.67％,respectively,and AUC of 0.613,0.712,0.837 and 0.645,respectively.ADCsacroiliac was moderately-highly positively correlated with SPARCC score of AS patients with Ⅱ and Ⅲgrade sacroiliac joint inflammation(r=0.580,0.933,both P＜0.05),but no obvious correlation was detected between ADCsacroiliac and SPARCC score of AS patients with Ⅰ or Ⅳ grade sacroiliac joint inflammation(both P＞0.05).Conclusion ADCsacroiliac was positively correlated with SPARCC scores of AS patients with Ⅱ and Ⅲ grade sacroiliac joint inflammation,which could be regarded as a reliable quantitative parameter for monitoring sacroiliac joint BMO.

Hip fracture in the elderly is characterized by high incidence, high disability rate, and high mortality and has been recognized as a public health issue threatening their health. Surgery is the preferred choice for the treatment of elderly patients with hip fracture. However, lower extremity deep venous thrombosis (DVT) has an extremely high incidence rate during the perioperative period, and may significantly increase the risk of patients′ death once it progresses to pulmonary embolism. In response to this issue, the clinical guidelines and expert consensuses all emphasize active application of comprehensive preventive measures, including basic prevention, physical prevention, and pharmacological prevention. In this prevention system, basic prevention is the basis of physical and pharmacological prevention. However,there is a lack of unified and definite recommendations for basic preventive measures in clinical practice. To this end, the Orthopedic Nursing Professional Committee of the Chinese Nursing Association and Nursing Department of the Orthopedic Branch of the China International Exchange and Promotive Association for Medical and Health Care organized relevant nursing experts to formulate Expert consensus on perioperative basic prevention for lower extremity deep venous thrombosis in elderly patients with hip fracture ( version 2024) . A total of 10 recommendations were proposed, aiming to standardize the basic preventive measures for lower extremity DVT in elderly patients with hip fractures during the perioperative period and promote their subsequent rehabilitation.

In recent years, targeted therapy and immunotherapy have been applied more and more widely in tumor treatment, and reports on psoriasis induced or exacerbated by these drugs have emerged continuously. This review summarizes and evaluates targeted therapeutic drugs and immunotherapeutic drugs that allegedly induce or aggravate psoriasis according to their targets and possible mechanisms, including programmed death receptor 1 inhibitors, epidermal growth factor receptor inhibitors, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 inhibitors, anti-CD20 monoclonal antibodies, phosphoinositide 3-kinase δ inhibitors and multi-targeted drugs. In most cases, the relationships between drugs and the occurrence of psoriasis are possible or probable, and in only a few cases the causality is certain.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy of individualized removal therapeutic regimen for donor-specific antibodies (DSA) and examine its related influencing factors.Method:From January 2016 to January 2021, 34 recipients of kidney transplant (KT) underwent regular DSA testing and the results were positive. DSA removal therapy based upon rituximab (RTX) plus intravenous immune globulin (IVIG) was offered. Correlation between DSA negative conversion rate and DSA types, time from start of treatment to transplantation, HLA loci targeted by DSA and DSA mean fluorescent intensity (MFI) were analyzed retrospectively. Changes of immunedominant DSA (iDSA) and serum creatinine in individuals with de novo DSA (dnDSA) before and after treatment were also examined.Results:At Month 3 post-treatment, antibodies turned negative in 17/34(50.0%) patients and DSA became negative in 19/34(55.9%) at the last follow-up. Then we identified 78 DSA from all patients. No significant difference existed in negative conversion rate of pfDSA and dnDSA at Month 3 post-treatment [62.9%(39/62) vs 37.5%(6/16)] and at the last follow-up [4.2%(46/62) vs 56.3%(9/16)]( P=0.067, 0.219). For pfDSA, negative conversion rate of pfDSA with different MFIs after 3-month treatment varied significantly [negative conversion rate of weak positive DSA was 78.6%(33/42) and positive and above DSA 30%(6/20), P<0.001]. It was an independent related factor of whether or not pfDSA could turn negative (48.6%, 95% CI: 22.3%-66.8%, P=0.001). At the last follow-up, negative conversion rate of pfDSA differed markedly at different timepoints from start of treatment to transplantation [treated within 30 days post-operation was 79.2%(42/53) and over 30 days post-operation was 44.4%(4/9), P=0.042] and among different DSA MFI [88.1%(37/42) of weakly positive DSA and 45%(9/20) of positive and above DSA, P<0.001] and they were independent related factors for negative conversion of pfDSA (34.8%, 95% CI: 3.2%-61.8%, P=0.008; 43.1%, 95% CI: 18.5%-63.4%, P=0.001). Mean decline rate in iDSA was 66.67% at Month 3 post-treatment and 77.90% at the last follow-up. The difference was statistically significant ( P=0.035). Serum level of creatinine of 9 patients with dnDSA was (110.2±26.9) μmol/L pre-treatment, (178.8±90.5) μmol/L during treatment, (153.9±72.8) μmol/L at Month 3 post-treatment and (213.6±185.8) μmol/L at the last follow-up. Serum creatinine rose during treatment ( t=-2.794, P=0.023), declined at Month 3 post-treatment ( t=3.430, P=0.009) and spiked again at the last follow-up ( P=0.028). Conclusion:After DSA removal therapy based upon RTX plus IVIG, negative conversion rate of pfDSA is correlated with its MFI and time from start of treatment to transplantation. There is no significant rebound in DSA MFI and graft function of dnDSA patients improves immediately after treatment.
