Objective To construct a rational and efficient bed resource allocation management model to reduce pre-hos-pital waiting times,ensure patient safety,and improve satisfaction.Methods Based on lean management principles,a bed re-source allocation management model was developed and continuously optimized.The study compared bed turnover rates and effi-ciency indices,as well as preoperative waiting times for surgical patients,average length of stay,patient satisfaction,and anxiety incidence before and after the implementation of the lean model to evaluate its effectiveness.Results After implementing the lean bed resource allocation model,the bed efficiency index increased by 14.29％,and bed turnover rates improved by 3.34％.The average preoperative waiting time for surgical patients decreased by 100％,and the average length of stay reduced by 87.71％.Patient satisfaction increased by 2.4％,while anxiety incidence dropped by 28.1％.Conclusion The implementa-tion of a lean bed resource allocation model can enhance hospital bed efficiency,shorten preoperative waiting times for surgical patients,reduce average length of stay,and improve patient satisfaction.

Background::Given the established genetic linkage between triggering receptors expressed on myeloid cells 2 (TREM2) and Alzheimer’s disease (AD), an expanding research body has delved into the intricate role of TREM2 within the AD context. However, a conflicting landscape of outcomes has emerged from both in vivo and in vitro investigations. This study aimed to elucidate the multifaceted nuances and gain a clearer comprehension of the role of TREM2. Methods::PubMed database was searched spanning from its inception to January 2022. The search criteria took the form of ( "Alzheimer’s disease" OR "AD" ) AND ( "transgenic mice model" OR "transgenic mouse model" ) AND ( "Triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells" OR "TREM2" ). Inclusion criteria consisted of the following: (1) publication of original studies in English; (2) utilization of transgenic mouse models for AD research; and (3) reports addressing the subject of TREM2.Results::A total of 43 eligible articles were identified. Our analysis addresses four pivotal queries concerning the interrelation of TREM2 with microglial function, Aβ accumulation, tau pathology, and inflammatory processes. However, the diverse inquiries posed yielded inconsistent responses. Nevertheless, the inconsistent roles of TREM2 within these AD mouse models potentially hinge upon factors such as age, sex, brain region, model type, and detection methodologies.Conclusions::This review substantiates the evolving understanding of TREM2’s disease progression-dependent impacts. Furthermore, it reviews the interplay between TREM2 and its effects across diverse tissues and temporal stages.

DNA assembly is the core technology of synthetic biology. With the development of synthetic biology, researchers have developed different DNA assembly technologies that rely on DNA polymerase or DNA ligase, and also have developed some non-enzyme-dependent DNA assembly techniques to facilitate the automation of DNA assembly. The assembly of large fragments of DNA from a few hundred kb to Mb is mostly dependent on microbial recombination. In this paper, the three types of DNA assembly technologies, including enzyme-dependent, non-enzymatic and in vivo homologous recombination, are reviewed.

Objective To investigate the expression of hsa-miR-144 in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma, and its relationship with clinicopathological features and prognosis. Methods Reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) method was used to detect the hsa-miR-144 in 46 cases of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma and adjacent normal tissue. The expression of hsa-miR-144 in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma and its difference in the clinicopatho?logical characteristics including gender, age, and tumor size were investigated. The relationship between the expression of hsa-miR-144 and prognosis of patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma was analyzed. Kaplan-Meier method and Log-rank test were used to analyse the differences in survival rates in different pathological characteristics. Results The ex?pression level of hsa-miR-144 was lower in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma 0.97(0.22-24.48)×10-6 than that of adjacent normal tissue 8.60(0.09-258.20)×10-6, the difference was statistically significant (Z=2.221, P<0.05). The expression level of hsa-miR-144 was higher in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma with no lymph node metastasis than that in esophageal squa?mous cell carcinoma with lymph node metastasis (Z=2.758,P<0.05), and the expression level decreased with the increase in the pathological staging (Z=7.737,P<0.05). There were no significant differences in the expression levels of hsa-miR-144 between different gender, age, tumor size, tumor location, tumor differentiation and tumor invasion depth (all P>0.05). There was no correlation between the expression of hsa-miR-144 and prognosis in patients with esophageal squamous cell carcino?ma (rs=0.031, P=0.839). In the survival rate, there was no statistic significance between high expressive of hsa-miR-144 group and low expressive group (P=0.828). The survival rate was lower in patients with lymph node metastasis than that of pa?tients without lymph node metastasis. The survival rates were lower in patients with relatively deep invasion and higher patho?logic stage (P<0.05). Conclusion The expression of hsa-miR-144 is down regulated in esophageal squamous cell carcino?ma, and which is associated with lymph node metastasis and pathological staging of esophageal carcinoma. It shows that hsa-miR-144 may serve as an anti-oncogene in the occurrence and development of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma.

Objective To investigate the application prospective of carboxyfullerene C_3 as a radioprotectant or assistant for tumor radiotherapy.Methods Different concentrations of C_3 were incubated with K562 and AHH-1 cell,CCK-8 assay and trypan blue rejection test were performed to examine the influence of C_3 on the cell viability.Annexin V/PI staining and flow cytometry assay were applied to assess the cell cycle and apoptosis after 7-ray irradiation.Results C_3 showed little toxicity to AHH-1 cell with the survival rate over 95% ,but 600 mg/L of C_3 markedly inhibited the growth of K562 cell (82%) .Pretreatment of 100 mg/L C_3 significantly increased the survival rate of AHH-1 cell after 4 Gy irradiation compared with the single radiation group(71.3% vs 90.3%) ,but decreased the apoptosis rate (26.3% vs 12.6%) ,while the survival rate of K562 cell was decreased and the apoptosis rate was elevated with the increase of C_3 concentration.Moreover,the cell cycle analysis revealed the G_2 phase block in AHH-1 cell after radiation exposure was mitigated by C_3 pretreatment,but that in K562 cell was aggravated.Conclusions C_3 has good radioprotective effects on AHH-1 cells.For K562 cell,C_3 could inhibit the cell proliferation,promote the radiation induced apoptosis and aggravate the G_2 phase block.

Objective To observe the changes and clinical significance of plasma heart fatty acid-binding protein(H-FABP)in children after open heart surgery. Methods Forty patients with congenital heart disease(CHD) who had undergone cardiac operation with cardiopulmonary bypass(CPB) were selected in this study,and were randomly divided into two groups (each 20 cases): cold crystalloid cardioplegia perfusion group (Ⅰ group) and cold blood cardioplegia perfusion group(Ⅱ group). Blood samples were taken to check the plasma H-FABP concentration before CPB and different time after CPB. Plasma H-FABP concentration was estimated by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Results The difference of plasma concentration of H-FABP before operation was not obvious between Ⅰ group and Ⅱ group. The plas-ma concentration of H-FABP intraoperation and different time after operation was higher than that before anesthesia induction obviously in two groups, and Ⅰ group rose more significantly [(50.13±3.98) μg/L vs (39.27±4.22) μg/L, P<0.01]. Conclusions H-FABP concentration after operation is higher than that before operation significantly. H-FABP can be used to judge myocardial damage earlier as a sensitive index, because plasma concentration of H-FABP increases significantly after open heart surgery, and its peak emerges early. Compared with cold crystalloid cardioplegia,the myocardial protection of cold blood cardioplegia is better.

Objective To examine the expression of angiopoietin-2(Ang-2) in squamous carcinoma of esophagus,and discuss the relationship between Ang-2 and microvessel density(MVD)and clinical pathological features of squamous carcinoma of esophagus.Method The expression of Ang-2 and CD34 in 80 squamous careinoma of esophagus and 25 normal esophagus were detected by immunohistochemistry SABC technique,and the MVD of tissues signed by CD34 was counted.Results The expression of Ang-2 in squamous carcinoma of esophagus was,higher than that in normal esophagus (P<0.05).The expression of Ang-2 in the stage O-I and II squamous carcinoma of esophagus was lower than that in stage Ⅲ and lV(P<0.05).The expression of Ang-2 in squamous carcinoma of esophagus was correlated with differentiation of esophageal carcinoma and lymph node metastasis and infiltrative deepness.There was a remarkable posidve correlation between the expression of Ang-2 and MVD in squamous carcinoma of esophagus (r=0.603,P<0.05). Conclusion The expression of Ang-2 may be elated to the development of squamous carcinoma of esopha- gus,and may promote the development of squamous carcinoma of esophagus by promoting angiogenesis in tumor.

Objective To investigate the expression of PTEN and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in esophageal carcinoma and the relationship between their expression.Methods The expression of PTEN and VEGF were detected using immunohistochemical S-P method.Results Among 80 cases of esophageal carcino- ma,31 showed positive staining of PTEN (38.75%),while all 20 case of normal mucosa showed positiva staimng of PTEN.The expression level of PTEN in highly differentiated squamous carcinoma was higher than that low differ- entiated squamous carcinoma.Also,the expression of PTEN was significantly correlated with lymph node metastasis (r=0.61,P<0.01)and differentiation(r=0.57.P<0.05).In 80 cases of esophageal carcinoma,57(70.13%) were of positive staining of VEGF,while in 20 of normal esophageal mucosa,only 3 showed positive staining of VEGF.The expression of VEGF was markedly correlated with infiltrative deepness(r=0.49,P<0.05)and lymph node metastasis(r=0.55,P<0.05)and differentiation(r=0.48,P<0.05).Conclusion Combined detection of PTEN and VEGF maybe helpful to evaluate prognosis and infiltrative capability of esophageal carcinoma,with sig- nificant importance to the prediction of the prognosis of esophageal carcinoam.
