BackgroundAs a high prevalence disorder， schizophrenia has caused significant burden to family and society due to the impairment of occupational and social function. Currently， the dominant vocational training model in China follows a paternalistic， clinician-led decision-making approach. Although it improves patients' social function to some extent， it undermines their autonomy and treatment adherence. Therefore， it is urgently necessary to explore a new intervention method to enhance treatment compliance and social function in patients. ObjectiveTo explore the impact of shared decision-making oriented vocational training on social function in hospitalized schizophrenia patients， so as to provide references for rehabilitation interventions. MethodsA total of 68 patients diagnosed with schizophrenia according to the International Classification of Diseases， tenth edition （ICD-10） criteria were consecutively enrolled from January to June 2024 at The Third People's Hospital of Wenjiang Distric， Chengdu. Participants were randomly allocated into the research group （n=34） and the control group （n=34） using a random number table method. Both groups received routine rehabilitation training， while the research group received shared decision-making oriented vocational training for 12 weeks， 2 times a week for 2 hours each time. Before and at the 4^th and 12^th week of intervention， two groups were evaluated by General Self-Efficacy Scale （GSES）， Stigma Scale for Mental Illness （SSMI）， Scale of Social function of Psychosis Inpatients （SSFPI） and Inpatient Psychiatric Rehabilitation Outcome Scale （IPROS）. ResultsA total of 63 participants completed the study， with 30 cases in the research group and 33 cases in the control group. Repeated measures ANOVA revealed statistically significant time effects and interaction effects in both groups for GSES， SSMI， SSFPI and IPROS scores （F=20.451， 16.022； 26.193， 12.944； 23.957， 5.023； 11.776， 3.985， P<0.05 or 0.01）， while no significant group effects were observed （F=0.188， 0.742， 1.878， 0.474， P>0.05）. At the 12^th week of intervention， there were statistically significant differences in GSES， SSMI， SSFPI and IPROS scores between the two groups. ConclusionShared decision-making oriented vocational training may help to improve social function in patients with schizophrenia. ［Funded by 2023 Chengdu Medical Research Project （number， 2023468）］

The alternative pathway (AP) of the complement system is a key contributor to the pathogenesis of several diseases including paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH), atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS), C3 glomerular disease (C3G) and age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Complement factor B (CFB) is a trypsin-like serine protein that circulates in the human bloodstream in a latent form. As a key node of the alternative pathway, it is an important target for the treatment of diseases mediated by the complement system. With the successful launch of iptacopan, the CFB small molecule inhibitors has become a current research hotspot, a number of domestic and foreign pharmaceutical companies are actively developing CFB small molecule inhibitors. In this paper, the research progress of CFB small molecule inhibitors in recent years is systematically summarized, the representative compounds and their activities are introduced according to structural types and design ideas, so as to provide reference and ideas for the subsequent research on CFB small molecule inhibitors.

Atrial fibrillation is the most common type of chronic cardiac arrhythmia. Catheter ablation and left atrial appendage occlusion are effective treatment methods for atrial fibrillation， but these procedures require anesthesia support. However， anesthetic drugs often cause side effects such as nausea， vomiting， involuntary movements， and respiratory depression. This paper presents a case of a successful one-stop procedure for cryoballoon ablation and left atrial appendage occlusion of atrial fibrillation performed entirely under acupuncture anesthesia. Thirty minutes before the procedure， acupuncture needles were inserted perpendicularly at bilateral Neiguan （PC 6）， Lieque （LU 7）， Ximen （PC 4） and （LU 6）. After obtaining the deqi （得气） sensation， an electroacupuncture device was connected， and electroacupuncture anesthesia was used for pain control throughout the procedure. The patient exhibited good tolerance and cooperation， with electroacupuncture anesthesia completely replacing intravenous anesthetics， ensuring the smooth completion of the surgery. Postoperative follow-up showed favorable outcomes.

Background: In acute and chronic renal inflammatory diseases, the activation of inflammatory cells is involved in the defect of erythropoietin (EPO) production. Ras guanine nucleotide-releasing protein-4 (RasGRP4) promotes renal inflammatory injury in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Our study aimed to investigate the role and mechanism of RasGRP4 in the production of renal EPO in diabetes. Methods: The degree of tissue injury was observed by pathological staining. Inflammatory cell infiltration was analyzed by immunohistochemical staining. Serum EPO levels were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, and EPO production and renal interstitial fibrosis were analyzed by immunofluorescence. Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction and Western blotting were used to detect the expression of key inflammatory factors and the activation of signaling pathways. In vitro, the interaction between peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) and C3H10T1/2 cells was investigated via cell coculture experiments. Results: RasGRP4 decreased the expression of hypoxia-inducible factor 2-alpha (HIF2A) via the ubiquitination–proteasome degradation pathway and promoted myofibroblastic transformation by activating critical inflammatory pathways, consequently reducing the production of EPO in T2DM mice. Conclusion RasGRP4 participates in the production of renal EPO in diabetic mice by affecting the secretion of proinflammatory cytokines in PBMCs, degrading HIF2A, and promoting the myofibroblastic transformation of C3H10T1/2 cells.

Objective To investigate the effect of early activity combined with electrical stimulation of neuromuscular system in improving intensive care unit(ICU)-acquired weakness(ICU-AW)patients with severe pneumonia.Methods A total of 150 patients with ICU-AW caused by severe pneumonia admitted to emergency intensive care unit(EICU)in a tertiary hospital in Shanghai were enrolled as the study subjects,and randomly divided into control group(75 cases)and combined group(75 cases).The control group took early exercise,and the combination group was given early exercise plus electrical stimulation of neuromuscular system.The recovery from mechanical ventilation(ICU length of stay,duration of mechanical ventilation,weaning extubation rate,ICU rollout rate),lung function[forced vital capacity(FVC),forced expiratory volume in the 1 s(FEV1)/FVC,massive inspiratory pressure(MIP)],muscle strength[Medical Research Council(MRC)score],disease severity[acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ(APACHEⅡ)],and complications were compared between the two groups.Results The ICU length of stay and mechanical ventilation time in the combined group were significantly lower than those in the control group(P<0.05).After intervention,FVC,FEV1/FVC,MIP and MRC scores in the two groups were significantly increased(P<0.05),and compared with the control group,the combined group was significantly increased(P<0.05).After intervention,APACHEⅡ score was significantly reduced in the two groups(P<0.05),and compared with the control group,APACHEⅡ score in combined group were significantly reduced(P<0.05).The complication rate in the combined group(9.33％)was significantly lower than that of control group(24.00％)(P<0.05).Conclusions Early exercise combined with neuromuscular electrical stimulation in patients with severe pneumonia ICU-AW can effec-tively promote recovery of patients because of improved lung function.This therapy is proved to be be safe and effective.

Objective:To analyze the clinical curative effects of wire-to-port drainage and put-aside drainage after incision and hanging on perianal abscess.Methods:Eighty-two patients with perianal abscess admitted to Anqing Municipal Hospital between November 2019 and November 2022 were enrolled. The patients were divided into group A (41 cases, incision and hanging wire-to-port drainage) and group B (41 cases, incision and hanging put-aside drainage) by random digits table method. The clinical curative effect, operation time, wound healing time, postoperative recovery time and hospitalization time in the two groups were compared. The pain and anal function were evaluated by visual analogue score (VAS) and Wexner continence grading score (Wexner score) before surgery and 1, 7 d after surgery. The occurrence of complications within 1 month after surgery was statistically analyzed.Results:There was no significant difference in total clinical response rate between group A and group B ( P>0.05). There was no significant difference in operation time between the two groups ( P>0.05). The wound healing time, postoperative recovery time and hospitalization time in group A were significantly shorter than those in group B: (21.34 ± 2.21) d vs. (27.86 ± 2.84) d, (23.12 ± 2.42) d vs. (28.36 ± 2.91) d, (8.12 ± 0.83) d vs. (13.25 ± 1.47), P<0.05. At 1 and 7 d after surgery, the VAS and Wexner score in group A were lower than those in group B: (6.11 ± 0.62) points vs. (6.54 ± 0.67) points, (2.39 ± 0.25) points vs. (3.21 ± 0.33) points, (7.54 ± 0.77) points vs. (8.96 ± 0.91) points, (4.22 ± 0.43) points vs. (5.68 ± 0.58) points, P<0.05. There was no significant difference in total incidence of complications between the two groups within 1 month after surgery ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Compared with incision and hanging put-aside drainage, incision and hanging wire-to-port drainage can promote wound healing, shorten hospitalization time, relieve postoperative pain and improve anal function in patients with perianal abscess, with certain safety.
