Objective To analyze the correlations of the expressions of miR-4500 and nerve growth factor(NGF)in breast cancer patients with preoperative magnetic resonance(MR)signs.Methods A total of 105 patients with breast cancer admitted to our hospital were selected,the mRNA expression levels of miR-4500 and NGF in breast cancer tissues and adjacent tissues of patients were detected by qRT-PCR,and the positive expression rates of NGF in breast cancer tissues and adjacent tissues were determined by immunohistochemistry method.The correlations of the expressions of miR-4500 and NGF in breast cancer tissues with clinicopathological features and MR signs of patients were analyzed.The targeting relationship between miR-4500 and NGF was predicted by the bioinformatics website,and the correla-tion between the expressions of the two was analyzed.Results Compared with the adjacent tissues,the expression level of miR-4500 in breast cancer tissue decreased(P<0.05),while the level of NGF mRNA and the positive expression rate of NGF increased(P<0.05).There was no significant difference in age,pathological type,tumor classification,parenchymal background,apparent diffusion coefficient or enhancement curve among different expressions of miR-4500 and NGF(P>0.05).The histological grade,lymph node metastasis,tumor diameter,tumor morphology,ring-like enhancement,and peritu-moral brain edema were related to the expressions of miR-4500 and NGF(P<0.05).The bioinformatics website prediction showed that miR-4500 and NGF had binding sites,and the expressions of miR-4500 and NGF mRNA in breast cancer tissues were negatively correlated(r=-0.576,P<0.05).Conclusion The expression of miR-4500 in breast cancer tissue is low,and the expression of NGF is high,which are correlated with the preoperative MR signs in patients,providing a molecu-lar basis for MR signs.

Objective Under the background of"breaking the Five-Only"and the evaluation reform of healthcare professionals'titles,it analyzed the willingness of healthcare professionals in public hospitals to disseminate health knowledge and its incentives and constraints.Furthermore,it explored potential pathways to improve the willingness of healthcare professionals to popular science and disseminate health knowledge.Methods From November to Decem-ber 2022,a self-designed online questionnaire was used to survey healthcare professionals in four tertiary hospitals in Shanghai.The questionnaire included basic information of healthcare professionals,analysis of the current situa-tion and demands of healthcare professionals in health knowledge dissemination,willingness of healthcare profes-sionals to disseminate health knowledge and influencing factors.Results A total of 762 healthcare professionals partici-pated in this survey,79.9%(608/762)expressed willingness to promote the dissemination of health knowledge.A multiple-factor logistic regression analysis revealed that intermediate professional title,achieving personal value and so-cial responsibility,increasing patient resources,professional title promotion,science promotion-related awards,being included in performance appraisals,and difficulty in capturing science promotion skills were the influential factors affecting the dissemination of health knowledge among healthcare professionals(P＜0.05).Conclusion The willing-ness of healthcare professionals to disseminate health knowledge was strong,and hospitals should motivate health-care professionals to disseminate health knowledge through building a long-term incentive mechanism,strengthening training in science popularization ability,and improving humanistic qualities.

BACKGROUND:Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is an effective and even the only way to cure various hematological diseases,but the short-term mortality rate is relatively high after transplantation. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the risk factors affecting the overall survival of patients with hematological diseases in the short term(within 100 days)after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation,so as to reduce mortality and effectively prevent related risks in the short term(within 100 days)after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. METHODS:Clinical data of 585 patients with hematological diseases who underwent allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation at the Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation Center of First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from January 1,2018 to June 30,2021 were retrospectively analyzed.The risk factors that affected overall survival within 100 days after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation were explored. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:A total of 585 patients with hematologic diseases underwent allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.92 patients died within 100 days after transplantation,with a mortality rate of 15.7%(92/585).The median age of death cases was 26.5 years old(1-56 years),and the median survival time of death cases was 48 days(0-97 days).Univariate analysis exhibited that age≥14 years old,acute graft-versus-host disease,grade IV acute graft-versus-host disease,bacterial bloodstream infection,as well as carbapenem-resistant organism bloodstream infection,were risk factors for overall survival within 100 days after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation(P<0.05).Multivariate regression analysis showed that age≥14 years old,grades Ⅲ-Ⅳ acute graft-versus-host disease,bacterial bloodstream infection,and carbapenem-resistant organism bloodstream infections were independent risk factors for overall survival(within 100 days)in patients after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.Hazard ratios were 1.77(95%CI 1.047-2.991),7.926(95%CI 3.763-16.695),2.039(95%CI 1.117-3.722),and 3.389(95%CI 1.563-7.347),respectively.In conclusion,all-cause mortality rate after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is relatively high in the short term.A timely diagnosis and effective treatment of bacterial bloodstream infection and acute graft-versus-host disease are essential to improving allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation outcomes.

Objective To explore the predictive value of combined detection of immunoglobulin binding protein 1 (IGBP 1) in serum and urine in lupus nephritis (LN). Methods A total of 60 LN patients were selected as LN group, and 60 SLE erythematosus (SLE) patients in the same period were selected as SLE group, the serum IGBP 1 and urinary IGBP 1 levels between the two groups were compared, and the value of serum IGBP 1, urinary IGBP 1 and their combination in predicting LN was analyzed. Results Serum IGBP 1 and urinary IGBP 1 in the LN group were significantly higher than those in the SLE group (P < 0.05). Binary Logistic regression analysis showed that serum IGBP 1 and urinary IGBP 1 were risk factors for LN (P < 0.05). Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curve revealed that the area under the curve (AUC) for serum IGBP1, urinary IGBP1, and their combined detection for LN was 0.856, 0.834, and 0.902, respectively. The Youden index was 0.533, 0.533, and 0.666, respectively. The sensitivity and specificity of serum IGBP1 were 85.0% and 68.3%, respectively. The sensitivity and specificity of urinary IGBP1 were 53.3% and 100.0%, respectively. The sensitivity and specificity of the combined detection were 78.3% and 88.3%, respectively. Conclusion Serum IGBP 1 and urinary IGBP 1 are highly expressed in LN patients, and their combination has a high predictive value for LN.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the effect of Huangqi-Ezhu-Chonglou combination on macrophage polarization and its mechanism of inhibiting colorectal cancer(CRC)cells proliferation and migration.METHODS THP-1 cells were stimulated with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate(PMA)and interleukin-4(IL-4)to establish M2 macrophage polarization model.The experiment was divided into M0 group(PMA treatment),M2 group(PMA+IL-4 treatment),and M2+ Huangqi-Ezhu-Chonglou combination group(PMA+IL-4+Huangqi-Ezhu-Chonglou combination treatment).The effect of Huangqi-Ezhu-Chonglou combination freeze-dried powder on the viability of macrophage was detected by CCK-8 method.The expression of macrophage polarization markers,glu-taminase(GLS)mRNA and protein was detected by qPCR and Western blot.The levels of interleukin-10(IL-10),transforming growth factor-β(TGF-β)and tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)in cell supernatant were detected by ELISA.CCK-8 method and Tr-answell assays were used to detect the proliferation and migration of HCT116 cells intervened by the supernatant of macrophage culture treated with Huangqi-Ezhu-Chonglou combination,namely conditioned medium(CM).RESULTS Compared with the M0 group,the expression levels of IL-10,mannose receptor(CD206),arginase 1(ARG1),and GLS mRNA and protein in the M2 group were significantly increased(P<0.01,P<0.001),the levels of IL-10 and TGF-β secreted by macrophages were significantly increased(P<0.01,P<0.001);compared with the M2 group,the M2+ Huangqi-Ezhu-Chonglou combination group had significantly reduced IL-10,CD206,ARG1,and GLS mRNA and protein expression(P<0.05,P<0.01),the mRNA and protein levels of TNF-α and in-ducible nitric oxide synthase(iNOS)were significantly increased(P<0.05,P<0.01,P<0.001),the interleukin-1β(Interleukin-1β,IL-1β)mRNA expression significantly increased(P<0.01),and the contents of IL-10 and TGF-β in the cell supernatant sig-nificantly decreased(P<0.05,P<0.01),while TNF-α content significantly increased(P<0.01).CCK-8 and Transwell results showed that compared with the M0-CM group,the M2-CM promoted the proliferation and migration of HCT116 cells(P<0.01,P<0.001),the M2+ Huangqi-Ezhu-Chonglou-CM group significantly inhibited HCT116 cell proliferation and reduced cell migration compared to the M2-CM group(P<0.01,P<0.001).CONCLUSION Huangqi-Ezhu-Chonglou combination can inhibit colorectal cancer cells proliferation and migration by regulating macrophage polarization,and its mechanism may be related to the changes in the expression of GLS,a key enzyme in glutamine metabolism.

Aim To investigate the molecular mecha-nisms of the Wenyang Huazhuo Tongluo formula in in-hibiting endothelial-to-mesenchymal transition(En-doMT)of pulmonary microvascular endothelial cells and improving pulmonary microvascular injury in sys-temic sclerosis(SSc).Methods Pulmonary micro-vascular endothelial cells were cultured with serum from SSc patients to establish SSc pulmonary microvas-cular endothelial cells.A hypoxia model was estab-lished in SSc pulmonary microvascular endothelial cells using liquid paraffin sealing,and the cells were treated with the Wenyang Huazhuo Tongluo formula or HIF-1a inhibitor KC7F2.Western blot was used to detect the protein expression levels of VE-cadherin,CD31,vimen-tin,HIF-1α,Foxm1,smad3,Tie-1,and vWF.ELISA was used to measure the concentrations of E-selectin and ICAM-1 in cell culture medium.The luciferase re-porter gene system was used to detect the promoter ac-tivity of the Foxm1 gene.Results Compared to the control group,the levels of VE-cadherin,CD31,HIF-1α,Foxm1,smad3,Tie-1,and vWF significantly de-creased under hypoxic condition,while the levels of vi-mentin,E-selectin,and ICAM-1 significantly in-creased.In addition,the cell morphology exhibited a distinct"spindle-like"myoblast morphology.Treat-ment with the Wenyang Huazhuo Tongluo formula or KC7F2 reversed these changes in protein expression levels and cell morphology induced by hypoxia.Con-clusion The Wenyang Huazhuo Tongluo formula im-proves pulmonary microvascular injury in SSc by inhib-iting the HIF-1a/Foxm1/smad3 pathway-mediated En-doMT of pulmonary microvascular endothelial cells.

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 of inadvertent intraoperative hypothermia (IIH) in the patients with non-in vitro cardiac hybrid operation,and to construct a nomogram prediction model. Methods The clinical data in 429 cases of non-in vitro cardiac hybrid surgery in this hospital during 2019-2022 were collected.Whether IIH occurring served as the outcome indicator.The univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to screen out the significant independent influencing factors,and the no-mogram model was constructed.The area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to evaluate the discrimination of the model,the calibration curve was used to evaluate the consistency of the mod-el,and the Bootstrap resampling method was used for conducting the internal validation.Results The inci-dence rate of IIH in 429 cases was 72.26％.The multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the basal body temperature,intraoperative heparin use amount,BMI,warming methods and anesthesia duration were the independent influencing factors for the IIH occurrence in the patients with non-in vitro cardiac hybrid op-eration.The AUC value of the constructed nomogram model was 0.916 (95％CI:0.885-0.947) with good discrimination and consistency.Conclusion The nomogram model constructed in this study has the high pre-dictive value,which could provide the reference data for carrying out clinical IIH preventive measures.

Chemical cleaning and disinfection are crucial steps for eliminating infection in root canal treatment.However,irrigant selection or irrigation procedures are far from clear.The vapor lock effect in the apical region has yet to be solved,impeding irrigation efficacy and resulting in residual infections and compromised treatment outcomes.Additionally,ambiguous clinical indications for root canal medication and non-standardized dressing protocols must be clarified.Inappropriate intracanal medication may present side effects and jeopardize the therapeutic outcomes.Indeed,clinicians have been aware of these concerns for years.Based on the current evidence of studies,this article reviews the properties of various irrigants and intracanal medicaments and elucidates their effectiveness and interactions.The evolution of different kinetic irrigation methods,their effects,limitations,the paradigm shift,current indications,and effective operational procedures regarding intracanal medication are also discussed.This expert consensus aims to establish the clinical operation guidelines for root canal irrigation and a position statement on intracanal medication,thus facilitating a better understanding of infection control,standardizing clinical practice,and ultimately improving the success of endodontic therapy.
