ObjectiveThis paper used the AGREE Ⅱ guideline evaluation tool to evaluate the quality of 14 clinical guidelines for acute myocardial infarction,aiming to provide reference for the formulation and improvement of the guidelines. MethodsClinical guidelines and expert consensus related to acute myocardial infarction were searched by web search. The search period ranges from January 1,2019 to November 1,2024 in CNKI,VIP,Wanfang Data,SinoMed,Web of Science,OVID, the International Guidelines Collaboration Network (GIN),the UK National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE),Yimaitong, and other platforms. Three researchers independently screened the literature and used AGREE Ⅱ to score the screening results. After ensuring that the researchers have a consistent understanding of each guideline,the quality of the guidelines was evaluated. After that,the ratings were analyzed by layer according to the issuing agency,category,method of formulation,and funding situation and compared longitudinally by rating time. The clinical guidelines and expert consensus were compared in terms of content and evidence. ResultsA total of 14 guidelines and consensus were included. The results of AGREE Ⅱ in the six areas in descending order were scope and purpose (62.82%±10.43%),rigor (62.40%±12.77%),editorial independence (62.11%±22.26%),participants (61.42%±11.65%),clarity of expression (59.98%±9.62%),and application (52.94%±16.90%) . Eleven of the guidelines were at level B, and three were at level A. In the stratified analysis,the score of the guideline formulated by the Chinese Medical Doctor Association was lower. There was little difference between the scores of Chinese/Western and Western medicine guidelines. The average score of the guidelines was higher than the consensus. Funded guidelines and consensus scores were higher. In the longitudinal comparison,the highest number of guidelines were developed in 2020 and 2021,while those developed in 2023 scored the highest. In the differential comparison analysis,the content of the guidelines was more comprehensive, and the evidence level was higher,while the content of the consensus was more novel, and the evidence was less. ConclusionThe AGREE Ⅱ score of the clinical guidelines for acute myocardial infarction is generally moderate,and there is room for improvement in terms of applicability. At the same time,the content quality of expert consensus should be improved,and more efforts should be made to develop and apply Chinese medicine guidelines for complications such as heart failure and microcirculatory obstruction after acute myocardial infarction.

ObjectiveTo analyze the microbial diversity in the rhizosphere soil of Gastrodia elata with different yields and explore the influence of soil microorganisms on the yield of G. elata. MethodThe experiment adopted the 16S DNA and ITS high-throughput sequencing technologies to study the diversity of the bacterial and fungal community in the rhizosphere soil of G. elata with high yield (GC) and low yield (DC). ResultProteobacteria, Firmicutes, and other unidentified Bacteria were dominant in the rhizosphere soil of G. elata. The dominant rhizosphere fungi were Ascomycota, Basidiomycota, and Mortierellomycota. There was no significant difference in microbial community abundance in the high-yield and low-yield rhizosphere soil of G. elata, but there was a significant difference in species composition. Thirty-eight microbes such as Bradyrhizobium, Schleiferilactobacillus, and Archaeorhizomyces were gathered in large numbers in the high-yield rhizosphere soil, and thirty microbes such as Fusarium, Coprinellus, and Nitrosotalea were gathered in large numbers in the low-yield rhizosphere soil. At the level of genus and species, there were six different species in the high-yield and low-yield rhizosphere soil of G. elata, among which Russula mariae, Archeaeorhizomyces, and Ilyonectria were gathered in the high-yield rhizosphere soil of G. elata, while Nitrosotalea, Coprinellus disserminatus, and Fusarium were gathered in the low-yield rhizosphere soil of G. elata. ConclusionThere are different microorganisms in the rhizosphere soil of G. elata with different yields, and it is speculated that these microorganisms are related to the yields of G. elata. The research results are expected to provide a vital theoretical basis for the follow-up study of the high yield of G. elata.

BACKGROUND:
Pulmonary microvascular endothelial cells (PMVECs) were not complex, and the endothelial barrier was destroyed in the pathogenesis progress of acute lung injury (ALI)/acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Previous studies have demonstrated that hepatocyte growth factor (HGF), which was secreted by bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells, could decrease endothelial apoptosis. We investigated whether mTOR/STAT3 signaling acted in HGF protective effects against oxidative stress and mitochondria-dependent apoptosis in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced endothelial barrier dysfunction and ALI mice.
METHODS:
In our current study, we introduced LPS-induced PMEVCs with HGF treatment. To investigate the effects of mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR)/signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) pathway in endothelial oxidative stress and mitochondria-dependent apoptosis, mTOR inhibitor rapamycin and STAT3 inhibitor S3I-201 were, respectively, used to inhibit mTOR/STAT3 signaling. Moreover, lentivirus vector-mediated mTORC1 (Raptor) and mTORC2 (Rictor) gene knockdown modifications were introduced to evaluate mTORC1 and mTORC1 pathways. Calcium measurement, reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, mitochondrial membrane potential and protein, cell proliferation, apoptosis, and endothelial junction protein were detected to evaluate HGF effects. Moreover, we used the ALI mouse model to observe the mitochondria pathological changes with an electron microscope in vivo.
RESULTS:
Our study demonstrated that HGF protected the endothelium via the suppression of ROS production and intracellular calcium uptake, which lead to increased mitochondrial membrane potential (JC-1 and mitochondria tracker green detection) and specific proteins (complex I), raised anti-apoptosis Messenger Ribonucleic Acid level (B-cell lymphoma 2 and Bcl-xL), and increased endothelial junction proteins (VE-cadherin and occludin). Reversely, mTOR inhibitor rapamycin and STAT3 inhibitor S3I-201 could raise oxidative stress and mitochondria-dependent apoptosis even with HGF treatment in LPS-induced endothelial cells. Similarly, mTORC1 as well as mTORC2 have the same protective effects in mitochondria damage and apoptosis. In in vivo experiments of ALI mouse, HGF also increased mitochondria structural integrity via the mTOR/STAT3 pathway.
CONCLUSION
In all, these reveal that mTOR/STAT3 signaling mediates the HGF suppression effects to oxidative level, mitochondria-dependent apoptosis, and endothelial junction protein in ARDS, contributing to the pulmonary endothelial survival and barrier integrity.

OBJECTIVE:To study the effects of different amounts of Euphorbiae Semen fatty oil in self-assembly micelles on intestinal absorption of 4 kinds of euphorbia (euphorbia L 1,L2,L3,L8)in rats. METHODS :The self-assembled micelle solution containing 4 kinds of euphorbia was prepared by adding 4 kinds of euphorbia (40 mg/L)in excess ,using the fatty oil of Euphorbia Semen(0.2,0.4,1,4 g/L)and sodium deoxycholate as carriers. Totally 60 rats were collected to establish in-situ one-way intestinal perfusion model. Different intestinal segments (duodenum,jejunum,ileum,colon)were perfused with drug-containing intestinal perfusion fluid according to different dosage of Euphorbiae Semen fatty oil. HPLC method was adopted to determine the contents of 4 kinds of euphorbia in the intestinal perfusate before and after perfusion. The absorption rate constant (Ka)and apparent absorption coefficient (Peff)of 4 kinds of euphorbia in different intestinal segments were calculated. The ileum segment with better absorption was selected as the object to investigate and calculate the ac cumulative absorption of 4 kinds of euphorbia. RESULTS:The self-assembled micelles formed by different concentrations of fatty oil of Euphorbiae Semen could significantly increase the absorption of 4 kinds of euphorbia in different intestinal segments to different extents. When the dosage of Euphorbiae Semen fatty oil was 0.4 g/L,the intestinal absorption effect of 4 kinds of euphorbia were all the best ;the Peff was significantly increased,compared with no fat oil group (P<0.05 or P< . According to the order of Ka and Peff of each intestinal : segment in different fatty oil dosage groups ,the absorption 0531-89628590。E-mail:1310394709@qq.com effect of 4 kinds of euphorbia in each intestinal segment was the best in jejunum and the worst in colon. Compared with no fatty oil group ,when the amount of Euphorbiae Semen fatty oil w as 0.2-4 g/L,accumulative amount of 4 kinds of euphorbia in the ileum of rats increased significantly (P<0.05 or P<0.01), and the highest in 0.4 g/L Euphorbiae Semen fatty oil group. CONCLUSIONS :The self-assembly micelle s composed of Euphorbiae Semen fatty oil and deoxycholate can increase the absorption of euphorbia L 1,L2,L3,L8 in each intestinal segment to different extent,and the jejunum is the main absorption segment.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effect of clinical nursing pathway(CNP) on clinical nursing of patients with pneumoconiosis. METHODS: A total of 120 patients with pneumoconiosis were selected as the subjects by the judgment sampling method. The patients were divided into control group and observation group by random number table method, with 60 cases in each group. The patients in the control group were given routine treatment and nursing after admission, while the patients in the observation group were treated similarly to that of the control group plus CNP. The treatment of patients in both groups were carried out until they were discharged from hospital. General Self-Efficacy Scale, Medical Coping Style Questionnaire and Quality of Life Scale were used to measure the self-efficacy, coping style and of quality of life of these two groups before and after the implementation of CNP. RESULTS: Before the implementation of CNP, there was no significant difference in the scores of self-efficacy, three dimensions of coping style and four dimensions quality of life between the two groups(P>0.05). After the implementation of CNP, the scores of self-efficacy, face dimension and quality of life in the observation group were higher than those in the control group(P<0.01). The scores of surrender and avoidance dimensions decreased(P<0.01). CONCLUSION: The implementation of CNP can improve the self-efficacy, coping style and quality of life of pneumoconiosis patients.

Objective To explore the clinical value of 3D fast spin echo with an extended echo train acquistion (CUBE) T1WI enhancement sequence for purulent meningitis by comparing to contrast?enhanced T2WI?FLAIR sequence in the detection of lesions. Methods From August 2016 to July 2017, children with clinically suspected purulent meningitis underwent cranial magnetic resonance examination in our hospital. There were 35 children, 19 males and 16 females, aged 2 months to 3 years (median age 8 months) in total.A GE Discovery MR 750 3.0 T scanner was used to perform routine plain and enhanced scan in all children. After enhancement, the sequences of CUBE T1WI and FLAIR T2WI were applied randomly. Using the FLAIR T2WI enhancement sequence as the reference, we evaluated the detection rate of CUBE T1WI enhancement sequence for dura mater and leptomeningeal thickening. The number of enhanced lesions detected was tested by χ2 test. Results The enhanced FLAIR T2WI sequence showed 21 cases with dural enhancement, showing a rate of 60.0%. The enhanced CUBE T1WI sequence showed 31cases with dural enhancement, showing a rate of 88.6%. There were significant differences between the dural lesions detected(χ2=6.058, P<0.01). The enhanced FLAIR T2WI sequence showed 16 cases of leptomeningeal enhancement,showing a rate of 45.7%. The enhanced CUBE T1WI sequence showed 19 cases of leptomeningeal enhancement,showing a rate of 54.3%.The enhanced CUBE T1WI sequence was not significantly higher than that of enhanced T2WI?FLAIR sequence in displaying leptomeningeal enhancement (χ2=0.229, P>0.05). Conclusion Enhancement of the CUBE T1WI sequence enables better visualization of meningeal thickening than FLAIR T2WI. It has great clinical value in the diagnosis of purulent meningitis in children.
