Polymer micelles formed by self-assembly of amphiphilic polymers are widely used in drug delivery, gene delivery and biosensors, due to their special hydrophobic core/hydrophilic shell structure and nanoscale. However, the structural stability of polymer micelles can be affected strongly by environmental factors, such as temperature, pH, shear force in the blood and interaction with non-target cells, leading to degradations and drug leakage as drug carriers. Therefore, researches on the structural integrity and in vivo distribution of micelle-based carriers are very important for evaluating their therapeutic effect and clinical feasibility. At present, fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) technology has been widely used in real-time monitoring of aggregation, dissociation and distribution of polymer micelles ( in vitro and in vivo). In this review, the polymer micelles, characteristics of FRET technology, structure and properties of the FRET-polymer micelles are briefly introduced. Then, methods and mechanism for combinations of several commonly used fluorescent probes into polymer micelles structures, and progresses on the stability and distribution studies of FRET-polymer micelles ( in vitro and in vivo) as drug carriers are reviewed, and current challenges of FRET technology and future directions are discussed.

Objective:To understand the incidence and clinical characteristics of dopamine agonist(DA) therapy-related impulse control disorders(ICDs) in prolactinoma patients.Methods:Outpatients diagnosed with prolactinoma from the Department of Endocrinology in Huashan Hospital from December 2019 to June 2020 were consecutively included and clinical data were collected. Impulse control disorders were screened with Questionnaire for Impulsive-Compulsive Disorders in Parkinson′s Disease(QUIP). Barratt Impulsiveness Scale 11(BIS-11) was used to evaluate personality construct of impulsiveness from three sub-factors . Health related quality of life was evaluated by the MOS 36-Item Short Form Health Survey(SF-36).Results:Among the 111 cases included, 40 were male and 53 were female, with an average age of(34.74±9.05) years and an average disease duration of(66.69±50.70) months. The initial prolactin level was 147.25(89.97, 470) ng/mL and the percentage of macroadenoma was 46.8%. Ninety cases received DA while 21 cases didn′t. According to the QUIP, any ICD was screened positive in 22 cases(24.7%) in the DA group and 3 cases(14.3%) in the untreated group. The attention impulsiveness scores of BIS-11 in the DA group were higher than the untreated group(23.32±3.67 vs 21.71±2.55, P=0.022). Among the ICDs positive cases in the DA group, the most common disorders were pathological gambling(40.6%) and hypersexuality(40.6%). Compared with the negative group, the non-planning impulsiveness scores of BIS-11 in the positive group were higher, while the scores of social function(69.32±24.62 vs 83.08±17.11, P=0.021), role emotional(50.00±45.72 vs 71.10±40.68, P=0.043) and mental health(55.27±22.75 vs 64.59±17.53, P=0.048) in SF-36 scale were lower in the positive group. Besides, the percentage of male(68.2% vs 38.2%, P=0.014) and initial prolactin level[470.00(130.00, 3 770.00) vs 140.29(79.50, 465.59) ng/mL, P=0.028] in the positive group were higher. Male was an independent risk factor of the presence of ICDs( OR=3.46, 95% CI 1.24-9.61, P=0.017). No significant difference was found in the type of drugs, duration, maximal or cumulative dose of treatment with DA between the two groups. Conclusion:Impulse control disorders may occur in prolactinoma patients receiving DA treatment and affect the quality of life. Endocrinologists should screen impulse control disorders in this patient set.

Objective:To explore the effect of the application of nursing decision support information system in the continuing nursing of stroke patients in convalescent period, and to provide guidance for the information-based whole process nursing of stroke patients in convalescent period.Methods:A total of 107 stroke patients in convalescent period admitted to 4 Grade Ⅲ Level A hospitals of Beijing city from March to November 2019 were selected. The patients were divided into control group (53 cases) and test group (54 cases) by coin tossing method. The control group followed uniformly formulated discharge health education manual for post-discharge management and follow-up, while the test group received health guidance and follow-up through the nursing decision support information system. Barthel Index and MOS SF-36 were used to evaluate the activities of daily living and quality of life of the two groups of patients before intervention and 3 and 6 months after the intervention, and the results were compared.Results:There was no significant difference in Barthel Index before the intervention between the two groups( P>0.05). After 3 months of intervention, the Barthel Index ≤ 49, 50-70 and ≥ 71 in the test group were 7, 17 and 27 cases respectively, and 16, 21 and 13 cases in the control group respectively, and the difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( Z=-2.95, P<0.01). After 6 months of intervention, the Barthel Index ≤ 49, 50-70 and ≥ 71 in the test group were 7, 12 and 32 cases respectively, and 10, 15 and 25 cases in the control group respectively,and the difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( Z=-2.21, P<0.05). There was no significant difference in MOS SF-36 before the intervention between the two groups( P>0.05). After 3 and 6 months of intervention, the total score of MOS SF-36 in the test group was (50.51 ± 14.57), (57.06 ± 14.85) respectively, and that in the control group was (42.02 ± 15.48), (45.58 ± 14.97) respectively, and the differences between the two groups were statistically significant ( t=2.84, 3.23, both P<0.05). Conclusions:The application of nursing decision support information system can effectively improve the daily life ability of patients, enhance the quality of life of patients.

Polymeric hydrogels have been widely researched as drug delivery systems, wound dressings and tissue engineering scaffolds due to their unique properties such as good biocompatibility, shaping ability and similar properties to extracellular matrix. However, further development of conventional hydrogels for biomedical applications is still limited by their poor mechanical properties and self-healing properties. Currently, nanocomposite hydrogels with excellent properties and customized functions can be obtained by introducing nanoparticles into their network, and different types of nanoparticles, including carbon-based, polymer-based, inorganic-based and metal-based nanoparticle, are commonly used. Nanocomposite hydrogels incorporated with polymeric micelles can not only enhance the mechanical properties, self-healing properties and chemical properties of hydrogels, but also improve the

Objective    To compare the clinical effect of three operations for one-stage radical correction of small left ventricle in children with tetralogy of Fallot (TOF). Methods    We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 120 patients with left ventricular dysplasia and TOF undergoing one-stage radical surgery in the First Hospital of Hebei Medical University from December 2004 to May 2017. According to the different types of operation used, they were divided into 3 groups, including a routine group (30 patients, 16 males and 14 females, aged 11.58±2.05 months ranging from 3-24 months), a large patch group (40 patients, 22 males, 18 females, aged 11.22±2.24 months ranging from 3-25 months) who were treated with a large patch, and an enlarged ventricular septal defect group (50 patients, 26 males, 24 females, aged 10.17±2.15 months ranging from 3-22 months) using new left ventricular enlargement technique to enlarge ventricular septal defect. The clinical effect of the three operations were compared. Results    The incidence of postoperative low cardiac output syndrome (6.0% vs. 40.0% vs. 50.0%, P<0.05), renal failure (4.0% vs. 37.5% vs. 46.7%, P<0.05), infection rate (10.0% vs. 50.0% vs. 66.7%, P<0.05), mortality (2.0% vs. 12.5% vs. 20.0%, P<0.05), ventilator-assisted time (8.34±5.24 h vs. 36.14±10.91 h vs. 38.58±10.12 h, P<0.05), ICU stay (4.13±1.01 d vs. 7.64±2.11 d vs. 8.03±3.03 d, P<0.05), hospital stay (10.48±4.26 d vs. 21.02±3.23 d vs. 22.52±2.93 d, P<0.05) and hospitalization costs (51 300±9 400 yuan vs. 103 200±39 300 yuan vs. 115 500±35 200 yuan, P<0.05) were less in the enlarged ventricular septal defect group compared with the other two groups. Conclusion    The clinical effect of enlarged ventricular septal defect is better than that of the routine and large patch methods, and long-term efficacy should be further followed up.

OBJECTIVETo observe the effect difference of warming needling combined with decoction and ciloprost for arteriosclerosis obliterans (ASO) with stasis.

METHODSA total of 96 ASO patients with stasis were randomly assigned into a combination group and a western medication group, 48 cases in each group. Anti-hypertension, glucose-lowering and lipid lowering therapies were applied in the two groups. Ciloprost was prescribed orally in the western medication group, twice a day, 100 mg a time. The main acupoints in the combination group were Sanyinjiao (SP 6), Yinlingquan (SP 9), Zusanli (ST 36), Guanyuan (CV 4), and Xuehai (SP 10), matched with Yanglingquan (GB 34) and Weizhong (BL 40). Warming needling was used at Sanyinjiao (SP 6), Zusanli (ST 36), Xuehai (SP 10) and Guanyuan (CV 4), 5 times a week, once a day, 20 min a time. At the same time, self-made decoction was applied in the combination group, 1 dose a day, twice a day. All the treatment was given for continuous 3 courses, 1 month as a course. The indexes were the symptom scores for cool limb skin, sour swelling, numbness, pain, abnormal complexion, ankle brachial index (ABI) and blood biochemical indexes, including fasting blood-glucose (FPG), triacylglycerol (TG), cholesterol total (TC), high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), glutamic-pyruvic transaminase (ALT), glutamic-oxalacetic transaminase (AST), serum creatinine (Scr) and blood urea nitrogen (BUN). The adverse reactions were recorded. The clinical effect was evaluated. Two-month follow-up was carried out.

RESULTSAfter treatment, the symptom scores for cool limb skin, sour swelling, numbness, pain, abnormal complexion and total score decreased in the two groups (all <0.05), with better results in the combination group (all <0.05). The bilateral ABI were higher than those before treatment in the two groups (all <0.05), with better results in the combination group (both <0.05). The FPG, TG, TC, HDL-C, LDL-C, ALT, AST, Scr, BUN before and after treatment had no statistical significance in the two groups (all >0.05). There was no adverse reaction on acupuncture and moxibustion. The total effective rate of the combination group was 95.8% (46/48), which was better than 91.7% (44/48) of the western medication group (<0.05). The recurrence and aggravation rate in the combination group was 8.7% (4/46), which was lower than 18.2% (8/44) in the western medication group (<0.05).

CONCLUSIONWarming needling combined with decoction for ASO are better than simple oral ciloprost, with safety.

Objective To explore the clinical features,electroneurophysiology,neuroimaging and gene characteristics of one juvenile dentatorubral-pallidoluysian atrophy (DRPLA) pedigree with an onset of epilepsy.Methods The clinical data of the elder sister and younger brother in a family with juvenile DRPLA were collected.Furthermore,their clinical manifestations,electroneurophysiology results,neuroimaging characteristics and atrophin-1 gene CAG repeat numbers were detected and analyzed in detail.Results There were four patients in this family in total.The probands were two siblings,and they both had the onset manifestation of epilepsy.The younger brother had frequently epileptic seizure,marked cerebellar ataxia,involuntary movement and mental retardation.Compared with her younger brother,the sister had light symptoms such as mild memory deterioration without ataxia and involuntary movement,and she could undertake some simple work.The spike wave and sharp wave complex can be detected in electroencephalogram (EEG) examination,the cortical center segment lesions pathological changes were revealed in somatosensory evoked potentials (EP),and the latency period of P300 was prolonged in the both siblings.Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed that the younger brother had marked atrophies in the cerebral cortex,brainstem and cerebellum.Furthermore,MRI showed that the elder sister had only mild atrophies in the cerebral cortex,brainstem and cerebellum,and that on the contrary some abnormally high signals were observed in cerebral cortex but not white matter.DRPLA gene detection revealed that the numbers of CAG repeats were 15/68 (the younger brother) and 15/64 (the elder sister),respectively.Conclusions Epilepsy,especially the myoclonus,is a common clinical manifestation for juvenile DRPLA,and many other types of epileptic seizures may arise with the development of DRPLA.DRPLA has diverse clinical heterogeneity.EEG,EP and brain MRI examination are great for DRPLA diagnosis and differential diagnosis,and the specific gene detection can be helpful for a definitive diagnosis.
