In order to make the shared traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） pharmacy develop more efficiently and normatively at the grass-roots level， using the “shared TCM pharmacy” as the retrieval word， this paper uses the literature research method to retrieve the reports， documents and policies from CNKI， the websites of people’s governments at all levels， the official websites of the State Administration of Traditional Chinese Medicine， people.com， China News Network， Xinhua News and other platforms before May 20， 2022， sort out the development mode and history of two “Internet plus” TCM pharmacies， namely “shared TCM pharmacies” and “smart TCM pharmacies”， and compare them with each other. Combined with the actual work of community hospitals and community service centers （stations）， the necessity and advantages （such as reducing the costs of the intermediate links of drug circulation and standardizing the grass-roots drug use process） of the development of “shared TCM pharmacy” are obtained from the perspective of primary medical care. Combined with the current situation of the promotion and application of shared TCM pharmacy in county medical communities， it is concluded that the shared TCM pharmacy should be further constructed from four aspects： improving the work process of drug centralized procurement under the background of normalization， improving the compatibility and synchronization of the whole process dispensing information system module， unifying pharmaceutical services and personnel training， defining the authority of data query and clarifying the boundaries of patient privacy to further build a shared TCM pharmacy. Finally， it integrates information technology， summarizes the definition of shared TCM pharmacy and its future construction direction， and provides reference for the next development of shared TCM pharmacy at the grass-roots level.

Objective: To evaluate the clinical efficacy of positioning guide templates for maxillary wholly impacted supernumerary teeth to provide technological solutions for clinical applications. Methods : After approval by the hospital ethics committee and informed consent given by the patients. Data from 136 patients with maxillary wholly impacted supernumerary teeth from January 2016 to April 2022 were analyzed retrospectively. The patients were divided into two groups according to the usage of the positioning guide template. The experimental group included patients using the positioning guide template (71 cases), and the control group did not use the positioning guide template (65 cases). The operation time and complications were statistically analyzed to evaluate the clinical efficacy after surgery. Results : All operations were successfully completed. The average operation time in the experimental group was (21.5 ± 3.4) min, significantly shorter than that in the control group (27.2 ± 4.9) min. There were statistically significant differences between the experimental and control groups (t = 7.599, P<0.001). One week after the operation, there were no complications in the experimental group, and there were 2 cases of adjacent tooth injury and 3 cases of gingival numbness in the control group. Conclusion A digital positioning guide template can effectively shorten the time of maxillary wholly impacted supernumerary teeth extraction and is an effective means to assist clinical maxillary wholly impacted supernumerary teeth extraction.

Objective:To investigate the types, incidences, and clinical characteristics of shock in polytrauma patients at different stages after polytrauma.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted on polytrauma patients admitted to multiple trauma centers from June 2020 to December 2021. The inclusion criteria were patients >18 years old and treated due to polytrauma. Exclusion criteria included an admission time of more than 48 h after trauma, a history of malignancy, or metabolic, consumptive, and immunological diseases. The early stage was defined as the period of ≤48 h after polytrauma, and the middle stage was defined as the period between 48 h and 14 days. The patient’s medical history, clinical manifestations, laboratory tests, imaging examination, injury severity score (ISS), and Glasgow coma scale (GCS) were collected. The types, incidences, and clinical characteristics of shock in different stages after polytrauma were analyzed, according to the diagnostic criteria of each type of shock. The differences between the groups were compared by Student’s t test, χ2 test or Mann-Whitney U test. Results:The incidence of the early and middle stage shock after polytrauma were 73.1% and 36.4%, respectively, with statistically significant difference between stages ( P<0.01). There were significant differences in the incidence of hypovolemic shock (83.6% vs. 28.4%), distributed shock (13.7% vs. 80.9%) and cardiogenic shock (3.5% vs. 6.6%) between stages (all P<0.05). The incidence of obstructive shock (8.4% vs. 9.7%, P>0.05) was similar between stages. The incidence of undifferentiated shock was 1.6% and 1.2%, respectively. There were 9.5% patients with multifactorial shock in the early stage and 14.4% in the middle stage. Totally 7 combinations of multifactorial shock were found in different stages after polytrauma. In the early stage, the combination of HS and DS accounted the highest ratio (42.3%) and followed by HS and OS for 28.8%. In the middle stage, the combination of HS and DS was the most common (48.6%) and followed by DS and OS (24.3%). Conclusions:The incidence of shock in polytrauma patients is high. Different types of shock can occur simultaneously or sequentially. Therefore a comprehensive resuscitation strategy is significant to improve the success rate of treatment.

Objective:To investigate the effect of preoperative use of diuretics on cardiac surgery-associated acute kidney injury(CSA-AKI)in elderly patients.Methods:In this single-center retrospective study, 1 638 patients aged ≥60 years and undergone cardiac surgery(including coronary artery bypass grafting, valve replacement and valvuloplasty)in the Department of Cardiovascular Surgery, Linyi People's Hospital between January 2015 and December 2022 were recruited.The last preoperative serum creatinine(SCr)level was taken as the baseline value, and AKI was diagnosed according to the Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes(KDIGO)criteria.Patients were divided into an AKI group and a non-AKI group according to whether AKI occurred after surgery.The clinical characteristics of the two groups were compared, and the effect of preoperative use of diuretics on CSA-AKI was evaluated by multivariate Logistic regression analysis.Results:Of 1638 patients enrolled in the study, 284 patients(17.3%)developed CSA-AKI.Compared with the non-AKI group, there were higher proportions of patients in the AKI group receiving furosemide(62.7% or 178/284 vs.46.2% or 626/1 354, χ2=25.397, P<0.001), spironolactone(70.1% or 199/284 vs.49.9% or 676/1 354, χ2=38.284, P<0.001), and hydrochlorothiazide(8.1% or 23/284 vs.3.5% or 47/1354, χ2=12.288, P<0.001). The number of diuretics in the AKI group was higher than in the non-AKI group[2(0, 2) vs.1(0, 2), Z=-6.381, P<0.001], and the proportion of patients using ≥2 diuretics was higher in the AKI group than in the non-AKI group(70.1% or 199/284 vs.49.0% or 664/1354, χ2=41.652, P<0.001). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that, after adjusting for hypertension, diabetes mellitus, hypoalbuminemia, NYHA functional class Ⅲ/Ⅳ, cardiopulmonary bypass during surgery, operative duration≥6 h, postoperative blood transfusion>600 ml, postoperative use of >3 vasoactive drugs and other variables, preoperative use of ≥2 diuretics remained an independent risk factor for CSA-AKI in elderly patients( OR=1.580, 95% CI: 1.042-2.396, P=0.031). Conclusions:AKI is a common complication after cardiac surgery in elderly patients.Preoperative use of ≥2 diuretics used may be an independent risk factor for CSA-AKI.

Pigs are considered as ideal donors for xenotransplantation because they have many physiological and anatomical characteristics similar to human beings. However, antibody-mediated immunity, which includes both natural and induced antibody responses, is a major challenge for the success of pig-to-primate xenotransplantation. Various genetic modification methods help to tailor pigs to be appropriate donors for xenotransplantation. In this study, we applied transcription activator-like effector nuclease (TALEN) to knock out the porcine α-1, 3-galactosyltransferase gene GGTA1, which encodes Gal epitopes that induce hyperacute immune rejection in pig-to-human xenotransplantation. Meanwhile, human leukocyte antigen-G5 gene HLA-G5, which acts as an immunosuppressive factor, was co-transfected with TALEN into porcine fetal fibroblasts. The cell colonies of GGTA1 biallelic knockout with positive transgene for HLA-G5 were chosen as nuclear donors to generate genetic modified piglets through a single round of somatic cell nuclear transfer. As a result, we successfully obtained 20 modified piglets that were positive for GGTA1 knockout (GTKO) and half of them expressed the HLA-G5 protein. Gal epitopes on the cell membrane of GTKO/HLA-G5 piglets were completely absent. Western blotting and immunofluorescence showed that HLA-G5 was expressed in the modified piglets. Functionally, the fibroblasts from the GTKO/HLA-G5 piglets showed enhanced resistance to complement-mediated lysis ability compared with those from GTKO-only or wild-type pigs. These results indicate that the GTKO/HLA-G5 pigs could be a valuable donor model to facilitate laboratory studies and clinics for xenotransplantation.

Objective:To analyze the risk factors of acute renal injury (AKI) after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) in the elderly patients.Methods:A total of 423 patients aged over 60 years who underwent CABG in Linyi People′s Hospital from May 2014 to May 2010 were retrospectively analyzed. Patients were divided into AKI group and control group according to whether AKI occurred. The risk factors of AKI were analyzed by multivariate logistic regression.Results:Among the 423 patients, 62 cases(14.7%)developed postoperative acute kidney injury. Compared with the patients without AKI ( n=361), the proportions of patients with hypertension, heart function (NYHA) ≥ Ⅲ, atrial fibrillation and cardiopulmonary bypass were higher in AKI group, the proportion of patients using statins before operation was lower [71.0%(44/62) vs. 50.7%(183/361),χ 2 =8.75, P<0.01;38.77%(24/62) vs. 7.5%(27/361),χ 2 =48.67, P<0.01;16.1%(10/62) vs. 4.4%(16/361),χ 2 =12.55, P<0.01;51.6%(32/62) vs. 21.3%(77/361),χ 2 =25.37, P<0.01;59.7%(37/62) vs. 85.6%(309/361),χ 2=23.87, P<0.01]. Patients in AKI group had higher level of blood uric acid, urea nitrogen and creatinine [353.8(275.5, 462.5)μmol/L vs. 314.5(262.9, 383.6)μmol/L, Z=2.75, P=0.01;5.5(4.3, 8.2)mmol/L vs. 5.1(4.3, 6.4)mmol/L, Z=2.44, P＝0.02; 74.9(58.5, 92.7)μmol/L vs. 67.0(57.1, 76.3)μmol/L, Z=2.90, P=0.01];and longer operation time, more blood loss and blood vessel bridge than those in control group [(403.2±124.1) vs. (350.6±110.2), t =3.41, P<0.01;(4.0±0.9) vs. (3.7±0.8), t=2.83, P=0.01;(3.8±0.7) vs. (3.5±0.8), t=3.58, P<0.01]. The multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that preoperative cardiac function (NYHA)≥Ⅲ( OR=8.528,95% CI:3.734-19.477, P<0.01),hypertension( OR=6.455,95% CI:2.605-15.997, P<0.01),extracorporeal circulation( OR＝3.046,95% CI:1.190-7.795, P=0.02),diabetes mellitus( OR=2.294,95% CI:1.047-5.026, P=0.04),elevated serum uric acid level( OR=1.004,95% CI:1.000-1.008, P=0.03)were the independent risk factors for AKI. Statins is a protective factor for postoperative AKI( OR=0.366,95% CI:0.154-0.873, P=0.02). Conclusions:AKI is a common complication after CABG in elderly patients. Cardiac function(NYHA) ≥ Ⅲ,hypertension,extracorporeal circulation,diabetes mellitus,elevated serum uric acid level are risk factors and administration of stating is protective factor for the incidence of acute kidney injury in elderly patients after coronary artery bypass grafting.

Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)/CRISPR-associated proteins (Cas) system is a hotspot of gene editing and gene expression research, in which CRISPR/Cas13 system provides a new direction for RNA interference and editing. In this study, we designed and synthesized the corresponding gRNAs of CRISPR/Cas13a and CRISPR/Cas13b systems in non-homologous end joining (NHEJ) pathway, such as Ku70 and Lig4, and then detected the expression of ku70 and lig4 in HEK293T cells. The CRISPR/Cas13a system could efficiently knockdown the mRNA expression of ku70 and lig4 more than 50%, and CRISPR/Cas13b system also suppressed ku70 and lig4 about 92% and 76%, respectively. Also, CRISPR/Cas13a, b systems could down-regulate Ku70 and Lig4 proteins level to 68% and 53%, respectively. The study demonstrates that the CRISPR/Cas13 system could effectively knockdown the expression of RNA and protein in HEK293T cells, providing a new strategy for gene function and regulation research.
