ObjectiveTo investigate the therapeutic effects and mechanism of Shenqi Dihuang decoction （SQDHD） on diabetic kidney disease （DKD）， with a focus on its impact on arachidonic acid-related ferroptosis. MethodsSixty C57BL/6 mice were allocated into a normal group （n=10） and a modeling group （n=50）， with 43 mice successfully modeled. The successfully modeled mice were further allocated into model， low-， medium-， and high-dose （4.68， 9.36， and 18.72 g·kg^-1， respectively） SQDHD， and dapagliflozin （0.13 mg·kg^-1） groups. The drug treatment groups were administrated with corresponding agents by gavage， and the normal and model groups were administrated with equal volumes of normal saline by gavage. An electronic balance and a glucometer were used to monitor the body weight and fasting blood glucose level from the tail tip， respectively. Serum creatinine （Scr） and blood urea nitrogen （BUN） levels were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA）. Histopathological changes in the renal tissue were assessed by hematoxylin-eosin staining， Masson staining， and periodic acid-Schiff （PAS） staining. The fluorescence intensity of reactive oxygen species （ROS） in frozen sections was observed by an inverted fluorescence microscope to evaluate the levels of ferrous ions （Fe²⁺） and lipid peroxidation in the renal tissue. Immunofluorescence staining of glutathione peroxidase 4 （GPX4） and acyl-CoA synthetase long-chain family member 4 （ACSL4） in the renal tissue was performed to detect their localization and expression. Western blot was employed to assess the expression levels of key ferroptosis proteins such as GPX4 and cystine/glutamate antiporter （xCT）， as well as the arachidonic acid metabolic pathway-related proteins， including ACSL4， lysophosphatidylcholine acyltransferase 3 （LPCAT3）， and arachidonate 15-lipoxygenase （ALOX15）. Real-time PCR was employed to measure the mRNA levels of key ferroptosis proteins， including solute carrier family 7 member 11 （SLC7A11） and GPX4， as well as arachidonic acid metabolism-related factors （ACSL4， LPCAT3， and ALOX15） in the renal tissue. ResultsCompared with the normal group， DKD model mice exhibited a decrease in body weight （P<0.01）， increases in levels of blood glucose （P<0.01）， 24-hour urinary protein， Scr， and BUN （P<0.01）， along with severe pathological changes， such as mesangial cell proliferation， basement membrane thickening， tubular atrophy， and interstitial inflammatory cell infiltration. In addition， the modeling elevated the levels of Fe²⁺， MDA， LPO， and ROS （P<0.01）， lowered the GPX4 and xCT levels （P<0.01）， raised the ACSL4， LPCAT3， and ALOX15 levels （P<0.01）， down-regulated the mRNA levels of GPX4 and SLC7A11 （P<0.01）， and up-regulated the mRNA levels of ACSL4， LPCAT3， and ALOX15 （P<0.01） in the renal tissue. Compared with the model group， low-， medium-， and high-dose SQDHD groups and the dapagliflozin group showed an increase in body weight （P<0.01）， decreases in levels of blood glucose （P<0.01）， 24-hour urinary protein， and Scr （P<0.01）， alleviated pathological changes in glomeruli and tubules， and reduced degree of glomerular and tubular fibrosis. The high-dose SQDHD group and the dapagliflozin group showed reductions in Fe²⁺， MDA， LPO， and ROS levels （P<0.01）. The medium- and high-dose SQDHD groups and the dapagliflozin group exhibited increased levels of GPX4 and xCT （P<0.01）， decreased levels of ACSL4， LPCAT3， and ALOX15 （P<0.05， P<0.01）， and down-regulated mRNA levels of ACSL4， LPCAT3， and ALOX15 （P<0.01）. ConclusionSQDHD ameliorates DKD by inhibiting ferroptosis potentially by reducing iron ion levels， inhibiting lipid peroxidation， up-regulating GPX4 expression， and down-regulating ACSL4 expression. This study provides new insights and a theoretical basis for the treatment of DKD with traditional Chinese medicine and identifies potential targets for developing novel therapeutics for DKD.

Objective To compare the effect of preoperative CTA examination using group injection test and group injection tracking delay protocol on image quality in patients with transcatheter aortic valve implantation(TAVI)/transcatheter aortic valve replacement(TAVR).Methods A total of 43 patients who underwent TAVI/TAVR preoperative one-stop CTA examination in our hospital were randomly divided into two groups,and preoperative CTA examination was performed using group injection tracking and group injection test.After the scanning was completed,the aortic root sinus(C1),the proximal left and right coronary arteries(C2,C3),the ascending aorta(A1),the abdominal aorta(A2),the left and right femoral arteries(A3,A4),and the CT value and SD value of the paraspinal muscles of the same layer were measured;the signal-to-noise ratio(SNR)and contrast-to-noise ratio(CNR)of the corresponding parts were calculated.The obtained data results were compared and analyzed from both subjective and objective aspects.Results There was no significant difference in image quality between the two groups in the aortic root sinus(C1),the proximal left and right coronary arteries(C2,C3),or the ascending aorta(A1)(P＞0.05).At the renal artery level,there was a significant difference in image quality between the abdominal aorta(A2)and the left and right femoral artery levels(A3,A4)(P＜0.05).Conclusion In the preoperative one-stop CTA examination of TAVI/TAVR patients,the CTA images below the renal artery level can obtain better image quality than the group injection tracking method.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the effect of leech freeze-dried powder combined with scorpion freeze-dried powder on carotid artery thrombosis in rats. METHODS FeCl3 was used to induce carotid artery thrombosis, and the experiment was divided into 6 groups: sham-operated group(sham group), model group, leech freeze-dried powder group(leech group), whole scorpion freeze-dried powder group(scorpion group), leech+scorpion half-dose group(half-dose group), leech+scorpion full-dose group(full-dose group), 6 rats in each group. The inhibition rate of bilateral carotid artery thrombosis was calculated after the final administration. The activated partial thromboplastin time(APTT), plasma prothrombintime(PT), plasma fibrinogen(FIB), and prothrombin time(TT) were measured by platelet aggregation and coagulation factor analyzer. The levels of plasma tissue-type plasminogen activator(t-PA) and plasminogen activatorinhibitor-I(PAI-I) were measured by ELSIA, and the thrombosis of each group was observed by HE staining. RESULTS Compared with model group, the wet weight and dry weight of thrombus were reduced in the leech, scorpion, half-dose and full-dose groups, and the full-dose group had the best effect in inhibiting thrombus formation. Compared with sham group, APTT, PT, TT was shortened, FIB content increased and t-PA level decreased in model group; compared with model group, APTT, PT, TT was prolonged, FIB content decreased and t-PA level increased in each dose group. The PAI-Ⅰ was not significantly different in each group. A large number of thrombus were seen in the blood vessels of model group. Compared with model group, there were significantly fewer thrombus in the leech, scorpion and half-dose groups, and almost no significant thrombus in the full-dose group. CONCLUSION Leech freeze-dried powder combined with scorpion freeze-dried powder inhibited carotid artery thrombosis in rats by affecting coagulation function and fibrinolytic system.

Objective:To explore the predictive value of multimodal ultrasound (MMU) for upper urinary tract damage (UUTD) in children with neurogenic bladder (NB).Methods:This was a case-series study.From January 2022 to December 2023, 87 children with NB admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University were examined by MMU.During the filling of bladder, vesical volume (VV), bladder wall thickness (BWT), shear wave velocity (SWV) of the anterior wall, resistance index (RI), and vascularization index (VI) were measured.After the emptying of bladder, VV and anterior wall SWV were measured, and ultrasound bladder compliance (△C) was calculated.The anterior posterior diameter (APD) of the renal pelvis and ureteral diameter (UD) were also measured.According to the upper/lower urinary tract dysfunction classification criteria, NB children were divided into a UUTD group and a non-UUTD (NUUTD) group.The differences in clinical data and related examinations between the 2 groups were analyzed to screen out independent risk factors, and an early warning model was established based on these factors.The prediction efficiency of the model and the urodynamic study (UDS) for UUTD was compared.Results:(1) There were 47 children in the UUTD group and 40 children in the NUUTD group.There was no significant difference in gender, age and body mass index between the 2 groups (all P>0.05).(2) In the UUTD group, the total glomerular filtration rate (tGFR) was (70.45±16.17) mL/min, the incidence of hydronephrosis was 38.30%, and the incidence of ureteral dilatation was 23.40%.No morphological changes were found in the imaging examination of the urinary system in the NUUTD group, and its tGFR was (100.55±16.27) mL/min.There was a significant difference in tGFR between the 2 groups ( P<0.05).(3) The filling VV, emptying VV, mean BWT, filling SWV, emptying SWV, VI, mean RI, △C, maximum cystometric capacity (MCC), maximum detrusor pressure during filling (Pdet.max), bladder compliance (BC), and detrusor leak point pressure (DLPP) in the NUUTD group were (218.43±87.53) mL, (14.62±6.14) mL, (3.08±0.65) mm, (2.64±0.54) m/s, (1.88±0.41) m/s, (6.20±1.04)%, 0.68±0.04, (147.58±49.18) mm 2·s, (309.50±66.54) mL, (59.83±19.79) cmH 2O(1 cmH 2O=0.098 kPa), (25.80±10.34) mL/cmH 2O, and (34.00±6.16) cmH 2O, respectively.Compared with the NUUTD group, the UUTD group showed decreased filling VV [(167.21±85.63) mL], △C [(78.49±31.86) mm 2·s], VI [(5.01±0.81) %], MCC [(255.32±75.10) mL], and BC [(12.57±6.44) mL/cmH 2O], and increased emptying VV [(19.50±7.65) mL], mean BWT [(4.02±0.82) mm], filling SWV [(3.99±1.07) m/s], emptying SWV [(2.15±0.35) m/s], mean RI (0.70±0.08), Pdet.max [(75.94±26.23) cmH 2O], and DLPP [(48.13±12.61) cmH 2O] (all P<0.05).(4) The decreased BC ( OR=0.841, 95% CI: 0.562-1.256, P=0.045), △C ( OR=0.427, 95% CI: 0.202-0.904, P=0.026) and VI ( OR=0.461, 95% CI: 0.091-2.325, P=0.010) and the increased DLPP ( OR=1.139, 95% CI: 0.894-1.451, P=0.040), filling SWV ( OR=1.895, 95% CI: 1.082-3.321, P=0.007) and mean BWT ( OR=1.191, 95% CI: 0.850-1.669, P=0.025) were independent risk factors for UUTD.Among MMU parameters, filling SWV had the highest prediction efficiency for UUTD, with a threshold of 3.33 m/s, sensitivity of 72.34% and specificity of 92.50%. Conclusions:MMU can well predict the occurrence of UUTD in children with NB, and filling SWV has the highest prediction efficiency.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.

Objective:To analyze the risk factors for ankle varus deformity after McFarland fracture surgery in children.Methods:A total of 48 children with McFarland fracture who underwent surgical treatment in the Second General Hospital of Fuzhou from January 2015 to December 2022 were retrospectively analyzed, including 24 males and 24 females, aged 11.2±3.2 years (range, 2-14 years), 19 cases on the left side and 29 cases on the right side. Salter-Harris classification: 34 cases of type III and 14 cases of type IV. Causes of injuries: 28 cases of sports injuries, 15 cases of fall injuries, and 5 cases of car accident injuries. The time from injury to operation was 2.6±1.7 d (range, 1-7 d). The reduction methods included closed reduction in 38 cases and open reduction in 10 cases. Tibial internal fixation: 42 cases of hollow screws, 6 cases of Kirschner pins. There were 30 cases of combined fibula fracture, 20 cases were fixed with plate, 8 cases were fixed with Kirschner's pin, and 2 cases were not treated with internal fixation. The internal fixation survival time was 6.4±2.8 months (range, 1-12 months). The lateral distal tibial angle (LDTA) was used to determine whether the child had ankle varus deformity. The general data and perioperative indicators of the two groups were compared, and the indicators with statistically significant differences were included in binary logistic regression analysis to determine the independent risk factors for ankle varus deformity after McFarland fracture surgery in children. The receiver operating characteristic curve was drawn and the area under the curve of each independent risk factor was calculated.Results:All patients successfully completed the operation and were followed up for 39.2±21.8 months (range, 15-98 months). At the last follow-up, all the 48 children with McFarland fracture had bone union and the internal fixation was successfully removed, and 5 of them had ankle varus deformity. The LDTA of the affected side was 98.6°±4.8° (range, 94°-106°) in the ankle varus deformity group and 89.0°±0.8° (range, 87°-91°) in the non-ankle varus deformity group. The age of children in the ankle varus deformity group was 6.6±5.1 years, which was younger than that in the non-ankle varus deformity group (11.7±2.5 years), and the difference was statistically significant ( t=3.772, P<0.001). The survival time of internal fixation in the ankle varus deformity group was 4.4±2.2 months, which was shorter than that in the non-ankle varus deformity group (6.6±2.8 months), and the difference was statistically significant ( t=1.750, P=0.087). There was no significant difference in gender, side, cause of injury, fracture type, initial displacement distance, fibular fracture, time from injury to operation, reduction method, or fixation method between the two groups ( P>0.05). Age and duration of internal fixation were included in binary logistic regression analysis. The results showed that age ( OR=0.717, 95% CI: 0.543, 0.945, P=0.018) was an independent risk factor for postoperative ankle varus deformity in children with McFarland fracture. The receiver operating characteristic curve of independent risk factors predicting postoperative ankle varus deformity in children with McFarland fracture was drawn and the area under the curve was calculated. The results showed that the best cut-off value of age was 5.5 years, and the area under the curve was 0.807, and the prediction efficiency of the prediction model was good. Conclusion:Age<5.5 years is an independent risk factor for postoperative varus ankle deformity in children with McFarland fracture.

Objective:To investigate the prevalence of frailty among elders aged ≥60 years in the Beijing community and analyze the risk factors of frailty.Methods:This is a cross-sectional study. A total of 1936 older persons in Baizhifang Community in Beijing were included between May and September 2023. Their frailty was evaluated by Fried Frailty Phenotype Scale. Mini Nutritional Assessment-Short Form (MNA-SF), Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB), and Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS) were used to evaluate nutritional status, physical function, and depression, respectively. The prevalence and risk factors of frailty among the elderly in the community were analyzed.Results:A total of 168 individuals met the criteria for frailty, and the prevalence of frailty was 8.7%. Compared to the non-frail group, the frail group was predominantly female (71.4% vs 62.2%; χ 2=5.59, P=0.018), older [(72.1±6.6) vs (69.9±6.0) ages; t=-5.25, P<0.001], unmarried (1.8% vs 0.8%; χ 2=8.60, P=0.014), with lower education levels (10.7% vs 3.5%; χ 2=23.38, P<0.001), poorer self-assessed health (22.6% vs 6.5%; χ 2=69.80, P<0.001), lower MNA-SF scores [(12.2±2.2) vs (13.0±1.4) scores; t=6.29, P<0.001], lower SPPB scores [(8.4±1.9) vs (10.2±1.6) scores; t=14.62, P<0.001], higher GDS scores [(4.0±3.8) vs (1.9±2.1) scores; t=-11.48, P<0.001], and worse vision, hearing, and olfactory functions (48.2% vs 34.1%, 36.9% vs 23.0%, 9.5% vs 3.0%; χ 2=13.37, 16.11, 40.58, all P<0.001). They were also more likely to suffer from hypertension (70.8% vs 56.7%; χ 2=12.52, P<0.001), diabetes (42.3% vs 29.4%; χ 2=12.06, P<0.001), osteoarthritis (46.4% vs 30.3%; χ 2=18.39, P<0.001) and stroke (19.0% vs 13.3%; χ 2=4.28, P=0.039). Logistic regression analysis showed that frailty was independently associated with nutritional status ( OR=0.8, 95% CI: 0.7-0.9, P<0.001), depressive symptoms ( OR=1.1, 95% CI: 1.1-1.2, P<0.001), olfactory function ( OR=2.1, 95% CI: 1.4-3.0, P<0.001; OR=2.9, 95% CI: 1.4-5.9, P=0.003), and physical function ( OR=0.6, 95% CI: 0.6-0.7, P<0.001) after adjusting for covariates. Conclusions:The prevalence of frailty among elderly people in community is relatively high. Frailty in community elders is associated with physical function, psychological function, nutritional status, and olfactory function decline.

Objective:To analyze mobility limitation condition and its relationship with cognitive function in community-dwelling elderly.Methods:In this cross-sectional study, a total of 1 935 older adults aged≥60 years were recruited from May to September 2023 in Beijing Baizhifang Community Health Service Center and its five subordinate health service stations (Baizhifang Hutong health service station, Nancaiyuan community health service station, Youanmen community health service station, Younei West Street health service station and Shuanghuaili community health service station). The Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB) was used to assess the mobility capacity of the elderly, and the elderly were divided into two groups with SPPB, the elderly with a SPPB≤9 points were grouped into mobility limitation group (645 cases), and the ones with a SPPB≥10 points were considered with normal mobility capacity (1 290 cases). The cognitive function of the older adults was assessed with the mini-mental state examination; and the gender, age, calf circumference, history of chronic disease, frailty status, cognitive function, nutritional status, depression status, hearing and vision condition of the two groups were compared with χ2 test or Mann-Whitney U non-parametric test. Multiple logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the mobility limitation and its relationship with cognitive function in the older adults. Results:Mobility limitation was found in 33.33% (645/1 935) of community-dwelling older adults. The proportions of advanced age, female, hypertension, diabetes, coronary heart disease, stroke, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, frailty, depression, cognitive impairment, hearing decline, and vision decline in the mobility limitation group were all significantly higher than those in the normal mobility capacity group (31.32% vs 13.41%, 69.92% vs 59.61%, 65.27% vs 54.03%, 33.80% vs 28.60%, 27.91% vs 19.53%, 17.83% vs 11.47%, 10.54% vs 7.36%, 13.18% vs 2.02%, 18.45% vs 6.59%, 14.73% vs 7.75%, 30.54% vs 20.31%, 45.58% vs 30.39%) (all P<0.05). Advanced age ( OR=2.542, 95% CI: 1.977-3.269), female ( OR=1.736, 95% CI: 1.390-2.167), stroke ( OR=1.426, 95% CI: 1.065-1.911), depression ( OR=2.292, 95% CI: 1.656-3.174), cognitive impairment ( OR=1.601, 95% CI: 1.154-2.220), frailty ( OR=5.199, 95% CI: 3.219-8.397) and vision decline ( OR=1.405, 95% CI: 1.124-1.756) were all positively correlated with the mobility limitation in the community-dwelling older adults (all P<0.05). Conclusion:The older adults in the community have a higher risk of mobility limitation, mobility limitation is a positive correlation factor of cognitive impairment.
