Objective To observe the expression and trends of tight junction proteins Occludin and zonula occlu-den-1(ZO-1)in blood-brain barrier(BBB)of rats with traumatic brain injury(TBI),and to explore the interven-tion effect of cannabidiol(CBD)on the BBB.Methods The TBI model of rat was prepared by modified"Feeney free fall method"and randomly divided into three groups:the sham-operated group(Sham group),the model group(TBI+vehicle group)and the CBD intervention group(TBI+CBD group),with 24 rats in each group.Each group was subdivided into six time points:8 h,1,2,3,5 and 7 d after injury.The expression of Occludin and ZO-1,which are closely related to the permeability of BBB,was detected by immunohistochemistry,immuno-fluorescence staining and Western blot at different points.The permeability of BBB was detected by sodium fluores-cein assay.Results The results of immunohistochemistry showed that compared with Sham group,the positive ex-pression of Occludin and ZO-1 decreased with time after brain trauma(P<0.05),and both reached the lowest level at 2 d.The expression levels of Occludin and ZO-1 were up-regulated after 1 d of CBD intervention(P<0.05).Immunofluorescence staining showed a similar trend to Western blot results,with Occludin and ZO-1 fluo-rescence expression intensity and protein expression reduced after TBI compared with Sham group(P<0.05).And the expression levels of Occludin and ZO-1 were up-regulated after 2 d of CBD intervention(P<0.05).The results of fluorescein sodium experiment showed that the BBB integrity of brain tissue was destroyed after TBI,and the permeability increased after TBI(P<0.01).The permeability of BBB decreased after CBD intervention(P<0.05).Conclusion The expression of tight junction proteins Occludin and ZO-1 decreases after TBI,and the permeability of BBB is disrupted,and CBD intervention reverses the disruption of the BBB by TBI.

Objective To investigate testicular damage in traumatic brain injury(TBI)rats and to analyze the in-terventional effects of cannabidiol(CBD)on TBI-induced testicular damage.Methods 18 Sprague Dawley(SD)rats were randomly divided into three groups:the sham operation group(Sham group),model group(TBI group)and treatment group(TBI+CBD group).HE staining was used to observe the testicular histopathological changes in the rat testis.ELISA was used to detect testosterone level in rat serum.TUNEL staining was utilized to observe apoptosis,while immunofluorescence staining,Western blot and RT-qPCR were employed to evaluate Bax,Bcl-2,Cleaved Caspase-3 and TNF-α protein and mRNA expression.Results HE staining showed pathological changes in the testes of TBI rats compared with those in the Sham group.ELISA assay showed a decrease in testosterone levels in the TBI group compared to the Sham group,but there was no significant difference(P＞0.05).Immunofluores-cence results showed that the intensity of Bax fluorescence expression increased in the TBI group compared with the Sham group(P＜0.01),whereas the intensity of Bax fluorescence decreased and the intensity of Bcl-2 fluorescence increased in the rats after the CBD intervention(P＜0.01).Western Blot results showed that CBD treatment in rats decreased the protein levels of testicular apoptosis-related proteins(Bax and Cleaved Caspase-3,all P＜0.05)and inflammation-related proteins(TNF-α,P＜0.01),and increased the protein level of the anti-apoptotic protein,Bcl-2(P＜0.05).The trend of RT-qPCR results was similar,with mRNA expression of Bax(P＜0.05)and TNF-α(P＜0.01)decreased and mRNA expression of Bcl-2 increased after CBD intervention compared with the TBI group(P＜0.05).Conclusion TBI induces testis injury,and CBD treatment effectively repairs apoptosis and in-flammatory in testicular tissue of TBI rats.

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.

Feeding interruption related to airway procedures is a crucial factor contributing to enteral feeding disruption in critically ill patients,and it represents a significant cause of inadequate enteral nutrition delivery.Prolonged or repeated interruptions exacerbate the insufficiency of enteral nutrition,impede patient recovery,and increase the risk of adverse complications.The absence of clear guidelines and standardized protocols has led to variations in clinical practices regarding feeding interruption during airway procedures.This article provides an overview of the clinical importance and current practices associated with feeding interruption during airway procedures in critically ill patients.Additionally,potential avenues for future research are proposed with the aim of enhancing standardization,safety,and efficacy in feeding interruption practices linked to airway procedures for critically ill patients.

Objective:To observe the role of Huaiqihuang Granules (HQ) in the long-term management of bronchial asthma in young children, and the effective effect on concomitant rhinitis.Methods:A prospective real-world multicenter study was conducted in children aged 2-5 years with asthma diagnosed in the outpatient department (from April 2016 to March 2019)who received either inhaled corticosteroid (ICS)/leukotriene receptor antagonist (LTRA)(control group); inhaled ICS/LTRA plus HQ(combination group), or HQ alone(HQ group). All patients were followed up at week 4, 8, 12 after treatment. The number of days with asthma symptoms, the frequency of severe asthma attacks, the level of asthma control, and the days with rhinitis symptoms in the last 4 weeks were recorded. Differences before and after treatment, and those among groups after treatment were compared using Kruskal- Wallis H test or Wilcoxon rank-sum test. Results:A total of 2 234 eligible patients were recruited, and 2 147 cases completed followed-up visits, including 477, 1 374 and 296 cases in the control group, combination group, and HQ group, respectively. After the treatment, all 3 groups showed significant declines in the days with asthma symptoms, frequency of severe asthma attack and the days with rhinitis symptoms (all P<0.01), and the rate of well-controlled asthma increased significantly ( P<0.01). It lasted until the end of follow-up. Among groups, patients in the combination group showed significantly less days of asthma symptoms than those of the other 2 group at week 8 and 12[0(0, 0.9) d vs.0(0, 0.3) d, P<0.05; 0(0, 0.1) d vs. 0(0, 1.0) d, P<0.01]. Patients in the combination group and HQ group showed a significantly lower rate of severe asthma attacks than that of the control group at week 12 [0(0, 1), 0(0, 1), 0(0, 2), all P<0.05]. The well-controlled rate of asthma in the combination group was significantly higher than that of the control group and HQ group at week 8 and 12 (89.6% vs. 85.9% vs.82.1%, H=15.28; 90.9% vs. 84.1% vs. 81.8%, χ2=29.32, all P<0.01). Conclusions:HQ can significantly alleviate symptoms of asthma and rhinitis, severe attack of asthma, and increase the control rate of asthma when used as an additional treatment or used alone.

Objective : To observe the expression of glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) in the brain tissue of rats with traumatic brain injury (TBI) and the differential changes between brain regions. Methods : The TBI model of rats was prepared by the modified Feeney free fall method , and it was randomly divided into the sham⁃operated qPCR were used to observe the morphological changes of activated astrocytes and the expression of GFAP in different brain regions after TBI. Results : Immunohistochemical staining showed that astrocytes were activated in all brain regions on the right side of TBI , and the only brain regions that spilled over to the contralateral side ( left) were cortical region 1 and midbrain regions. RT⁃qPCR results showed that GFAP mRNA was highly expressed in all brain regions on the right side of TBI , affecting the contralateral cortex and midbrain regions. Western blot results showed that GFAP protein was highly expressed in all brain regions on the right side of TBI , and it spread to the contralateral midbrain regions. Conclusion TBI can cause the activation of astrocytes and increase GFAP expression in the right brain regions , while also affecting the contralateral (left) cortex 1 and midbrain regions.

objective:To investigate the tolerability of early enteral nutrition (EN), and to further explore the association of early EN with clinical outcome in critically ill patients with hemodynamic instability.Methods:The adult patients from Zhejiang Provincial People’s Hospital with an expected admission to ICU for at least 24 h were consecutively recruited from May 2014 to May 2016, and all clinical, laboratory, and survival data were prospectively collected. The AGI grade was daily assessed on the first week of ICU admission. Enteral nutrition (EN) started after 6 h of hemodynamic stability (MAP ≥ 65 mmHg) when the patients took vasoactive medication. The patients were divided into three groups based on the timing of EN initiation: early EN group (EN initiation within 48 h of ICU admission), late EN group (EN initiation at more than 48 h of ICU admission), and no initiation of enteral feeding within 7 days of ICU admission.Results:Of 201 patients enrolled, the mean age was 65.3 ± 16.4 years, APACHE II score was 22.4 ± 6.85, and 191 patients (95.0%) took mechanical ventilation. There were no differences in high gastric residual volume, diarrhea, and gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding between the early EN group and late EN group ( P>0.05). Whereas, patients in the no initiation of EN within 7 days of ICU admission had a lower prevalence of gastric residual volume (16.7% vs. 33.3%, P=0.05), but higher prevalence of GI bleeding (47.2% vs. 26.1%, P=0.02). Compared with those in the late EN group and in no initiation of EN within 7 days of ICU admission, patients in the early EN group had lower 28- (30.4% vs. 47.9% vs. 55.6%, P=0.01) and 60-day mortality rates (38.0% vs. 53.4% vs. 63.9%, P=0.017). Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that the timing of EN initiation on the admission to ICU (early EN vs. late EN, χ 2≥5.83, P<0.05; early EN vs. no initiation of EN, χ 2≥7.90, P<0.01), serum creatinine ( χ 2=5.06, P<0.05), plasma albumin ( χ 2≥6.41, P<0.01), AGI grade ( χ 2≥8.15, P<0.01), and APACHE II score ( χ 2≥9.62, P<0.01) were independent predictors for 28- and 60-day mortality. Conclusions:Early EN on admission to ICU could be tolerated, and is significantly associated with lower risk of 28- and 60-day mortality in critically ill patients with vasoactive medication to maintain hemodynamic stability.

OBJECTIVE： To investigate the distribution， drug supply and quantity of licensed pharmacists in retail pharmacies around Third Grade Class A Hospitals， and to provide reference for decision-making of related management departments. METHODS： Field investigation and questionnaire survey were used to investigate the distribution， type， operating area， annual turnover， drug type， ranking of consumption sum， daily prescription amount and pharmacist allocation of 5 Third Grade Class A Hospitals in Beijing and general information of 100 surveyed pharmacists in 2017. RESULTS： There were 43 retail pharmacies in total within 1 km of 5 Third Grade Class A Hospitals， with an average of 8.60 retail pharmacies for each hospital. The number of retail pharmacies with distance between 200-400 m and 800-1 000 m was the largest （11）， of which 21 （48.84％） were chain drugstores. The operating area of 38 pharmacies （88.37％） was in the range of 100-175 m2， mainly ranging 100-125 m2 （16 pharmacies， 37.21％）. The annual turnover of 40 pharmacies were counted and ranged 50-10 000 ten thousand yuan， among which the pharmacies 0-200 m away from the hospital had the highest annual turnover. The average variety of drugs （prescription drugs and over-the-counter drugs） was 2 511 kinds. 34 pharmacies （79.07％） had more varieties of over-the-counter drugs than prescription drugs， and the consumption sum of over-the-counter drugs was higher than that of prescription drugs in 26 pharmacies （60.47％）. Top 3 drugs in the list of consumption sum were antineoplastic drugs， cardiovascular drugs and anti-infective drugs. Average daily prescriptions of 28 drugstores （65.11％） were less than 10 pieces； average daily prescription were more than 20 pieces in only 7 pharmacies （16.28％）. On average， each pharmacy had 7.4 staff members and 1.37 licensed pharmacists. 58 staff members’ first degree was junior college （58％）， 38 staff members’ first degree was technical secondary school or high school （38％）， and only 3 （3％） staff members’ first degree was undergraduates or above. CONCLUSIONS： With the gradual promotion of “health care policy” and the outflow of more hospital prescriptions， the retail pharmacies around hospitals should increase their numbers， expand the operating area， accelerate the construction of licensed pharmacists and improve the education level of pharmacists so as to improve the pharmaceutical care ability.

Objective To detect the feasibility and safety of applying all-seeing needle in transurethral seminal vesiculoscopy.Methods Retrospective analysis was made with clinical data of 32 patients of hemospermia treated with transurethral seminal vesiculoscopy using all-seeing needle from March 2016 to January 2018.The patients'age was (38.8 ± 8.7) years (27-60 years) and the course of disease was (7.1 ±3.3) months (2-15 months).Ultrasound before operation showed heterogeneous echo,or expansion of the seminal vesicle.MRI showed hemorrhage of the seminal vesicle,or abnormal signal of the seminal vesicle.Patients had levofloxacin or mosisasin anti-infection therapy more than one month and remained uncovered.The operation was performed under subarachnoid anesthesia,and the patients took the lithotomy position.The F4.8 all-seeing needle entered the posterior urethra,the verumontanum was found,and the saline was slowly pushed with a syringe to maintain a clear view.Then,the ejaculatory duct opening was searched on both sides of the verumontanum.If the ejaculatory duct opening cannot be found in the normal position,we entered the needle into the prostatic utricle to find the possible ectopic opening.If the ejaculatory duct opening was still not found,at the 5 and 7 o'clock positions in the prostatic utricle,the needle was probed and punctured into the side wall of the ejaculatory duct.Visible puncture with all-seeing needle can effectively avoid penetrating blood vessels and reduce damage to tissues during puncture.In this study,the ejaculatory duct opening got accessed on the verumontanum in 14 cases,through ectopic openings within the prostatic utricle in 2 cases,and through artificial establishment in 5 and 7 o'clock positions within prostatic utricle in 16 cases.After entering the ejaculatory duct and seminal vesicle,we explored the cavities of the seminal vesicles.For stones or polyps,after replacing the outer sheath to F8,F1.9 stone retrieval basket was applied to remove stones or polyps,followed by rinsing the seminal vesicles with normal saline,0.02％ nitrofurazone,and then 160,000 units of gentamicin into each seminal vesicle.For hemorrhage,after clearing up the blood,seminal vesicles were also washed with normal saline,nitrofurazone,and perfused with gentamicin.In the operation,prostatic utricle stone was found in 5 cases,and seminal vesicle stone was found in 7 cases.One case of seminal vesicle polyp was observed,and in 19 cases,seminal vesicle hemorrhage was seen.Results All the operations were accomplished successfully,the operation time was (55.0 ± 11.3) min (35-82 min).There was no rectal injury or urethral injury during operation.The postoperative catheter was removed at 2 days postoperatively and the patients discharged on the 4th day after surgery.The length of hospital stay was (6.3 ± 0.7) days (5-7 days).One patient had mild hematuria after removal of the urethral catheter and got improved spontaneously;one case developed epididymitis,which improved after anti-infective treatment.6 cases made stone analysis,with 5 cases of magnesium ammonium phosphate hexahydrate,and 1 case of calcium oxalate dihydrate,calcium oxalate monohydrate and carbonate apatite mixed stones.One case of polyp was diagnosed by pathologists to be an inflammatory polyp.Follow-up was performed at 4,6,8,and 12 weeks after surgery.Hemospermia was cured in 24 cases,relieved in the other 8 cases at 8-week follow-up,who received oral antibiotic treatment afterwards.At the 12-week follow-up,the rest 6 cases in 8 got hemospermia recovered,with 2 cases still uncovered.Conclusions All-seeing needle is user-friendly and safe in transurethral seminal vesiculoscopy,with reliable short-term efficacy.

Objective To discuss the correlation between shock index (SI) and severity and the values to forecast the prognosis in patients with septic shock. Methods 127 patients with septic shock admitted to intensive care unit (ICU) of Zhejiang Provincial People's Hospital from January 1st, 2016 to October 31st, 2017 were enrolled, and they were divided into survival group and death group according to the outcomes after 28-day hospitalized. The vital signs, laboratory indexes, acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ(APACHEⅡ), sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA), lactate clearance rate (LCR) of 3 hours after fluid resuscitation, and shock index on admission (SI1) and shock index of 3 hours after fluid resuscitation (SI2) were compared between the two groups. The correlation among SI and APACHE Ⅱ, SOFA, LCR was analyzed. The receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) was drawn to evaluate the prognostic value of SI in patients with septic shock. Results A total of 127 patients were included, 52 in survival group (40.9%) and 75 in death group (59.1%). The SI1, SI2, APACHE Ⅱ and SOFA in the death group were significantly higher than those in the survival group (SI1: 1.62±0.46 vs. 1.35±0.32, SI2: 1.36±0.24 vs. 0.93±0.15, APACHEⅡ:17.5±4.0 vs. 13.6±3.5,SOFA: 9.5±2.3 vs. 6.3±1.5), and LCR was significantly lower than that in the survival group [(14.4±5.2)% vs. (28.6±8.6)%], with statistically significant differences (all P < 0.01). The correlation analysis showed that SI1was significantly positively correlated with APACHEⅡ (r = 0.458, P = 0.000) and SOFA (r = 0.535, P = 0.000), SI2was also significantly positively correlated with APACHEⅡ (r = 0.624, P = 0.000) and SOFA (r = 0.656, P = 0.000), while SI1and SI2were significantly negatively correlated with LCR (r values were -0.348, -0.435, both P = 0.000), and the SI2were more remarkable. ROC curve analysis showed that the area under ROC curve (AUC) of SI1for predicting the prognosis of septic shock was 0.720 [95% confidence interval (95%CI) = 0.620-0.831, P < 0.05]; when SI1= 1.68, the sensitivity, specificity, Yoden index, positive predictive value and negative predictive value were 79.5%, 65.6%, 0.451, 0.759 and 0.636, respectively. The AUC of the SI2to predict prognosis of septic shock was 0.826 (95%CI =0.739-0.826, P < 0.05); when SI2= 1.37, the sensitivity, specificity, Yoden index, positive predictive value and negative predictive value were 85.7%, 87.6%, 0.733, 0.893 and 0.902, respectively. Conclusion Compared with SI1, SI2was more correlated with the severity in patients with septic shock and it had more values to predict prognosis.
