According to the "Regulations on clinical application management of medical technologies", physicians intending to carry out restricted technologies must undergo standardized training and pass assessments in accordance with the clinical application management standards for the respective technology. As ventricular assist technology is classified as a nationally restricted technology, standardized training is one of the essential conditions for its application. This paper primarily explores the standardized training for the clinical application of ventricular assist technology in Shanghai, in light of its background, clinical application, and current training status. It proposes the training requirements for ventricular assist technology, animal training assessment standards, and clinical practice assessment standards in Shanghai, aiming to promote the standardized development and high-quality advancement of ventricular assist technology in Shanghai.

Lactylation (Kla), a protein post-translational modification characterized by the covalent conjugation of lactyl groups to lysine residues in proteins, is widely present in living organisms. Since its discovery in 2019, it has attracted much attention for its role in regulating major pathological processes such as tumorigenesis, neurodegenerative diseases, and cardiovascular diseases. By mediating core biological processes such as signal transduction, epigenetic regulation, and metabolic homeostasis, lactylation contributes to disease progression. However, the lactylation donor lactyl-CoA has a low intracellular concentration, and the specific enzyme catalyzing lactylation is not yet clear, which has become an urgent issue in lactate research. A groundbreaking study in 2024 found that alanyl-transfer t-RNA synthetase 1/2 (AARS1/2), members of the aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase (aaRS) family, can act as protein lysine lactate transferases, modifying histones and metabolic enzymes directly with lactate as a substrate, without relying on the classical substrate lactyl-CoA, promoting a new stage in lactate research. Although exercise significantly increases lactate levels in the body and can induce changes in lactylation in multiple tissues and cells, the regulation of lactylation by exercise is not entirely consistent with lactate levels. Research has found that high-intensity exercise can induce upregulation of lactate at 37 lysine sites in 25 proteins of adipose tissue, while leading to downregulation of lactate at 27 lysine sites in 22 proteins. The level of lactate is not the only factor regulating lactylation through exercise. We speculate that the lactate transferase AARS1/2 play an important role in the process of lactylation regulated by exercise, and AARS1/2 should also be regulated by exercise. This review introduces the molecular biology characteristics, subcellular localization, and multifaceted biological functions of AARS, including its canonical roles in alanylation and editing, as well as its newly identified lactate transferase activity. We detail the discovery of AARS1/2 as lactylation catalysts and the specific process of them as lactate transferases catalyzing protein lactylation. Furthermore, we discuss the pathophysiological significance of AARS in tumorigenesis, immune dysregulation, and neuropathy, with a focus on exploring the expression regulation and possible mechanisms of AARS through exercise. The expression of AARS in skeletal muscle regulated by exercise is related to exercise time and muscle fiber type; the skeletal muscle AARS2 upregulated by long-term and high-intensity exercise catalyzes the lactylation of key metabolic enzymes such as pyruvate dehydrogenase E1 alpha subunit (PDHA1) and carnitine palmitoyltransferase 2 (CPT2), reducing exercise capacity and providing exercise protection; physiological hypoxia caused by exercise significantly reduces the ubiquitination degradation of AARS2 by inhibiting its hydroxylation, thereby maintaining high levels of AARS2 protein and exerting lactate transferase function; exercise induced lactate production can promote the translocation of AARS1 cytoplasm to the nucleus, exert lactate transferase function upon nuclear entry, regulate histone lactylation, and participate in gene expression regulation; exercise induced lactate production promotes direct interactions between AARS and star molecules such as p53 and cGAS, and is widely involved in the occurrence and development of tumors and immune diseases. Elucidating the regulatory mechanism of exercise on AARS can provide new ideas for improving metabolic diseases and promote health through exercise.

This paper explores the traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） pathomechanism， as well as pattern differentiation and treatments for sundowning syndrome in Alzheimer's disease through midnight-noon and ebb-flow theory. The syndrome's onset aligns with three critical time periods governed by three specific channels， including the bladder channel （3：00—5：00 pm， Shen period）， the kidney channel （5：00—7：00 pm， You period）， and the pericardium channel （7：00—9：00 pm， Xu period）. It is believed that when the symptoms occurred at the bladder channel （Shen period）， the pathomechanism manifested as yang qi floating upward and internal heat-blood stasis， and the treatment should supplement the kidney and essence， expelling stasis and discharging heat， as well as returning fire to its origin， using modified Taohe Chengqi Decoction （桃核承气汤） combined with Erzhi Pill （二至丸）. When the symptoms occurred at the kidney channel （You period）， the pathomechanism characterized by marrow sea deficiency and yin failing to anchor yang， so treatment follows the principles of supplementing the kidney and filling essence， as well as calming the mind and subduing yang， using modified Liuwei Dihuang Pill （六味地黄丸） combined with Erzhi Pill （二至丸）. When the symptoms occurred at the pericardium channel （Xu period）， the pathomechanism characterized as phlegm-turbidity clouding the mind and obstructing the brain， then the intervention need clear heat and dissolve phlegm， as well as open the orifices and calm the mind， using modified Wendan Decoction （温胆汤）. Additionally， comprehensive therapy combining oral administration of TCM decoctions with acupuncture， pressure pills on ear points， and point application therapy， which provides clinical insights for the treatment of this disease.

Hemolysis is one of the main complications associated with the use of ventricular assist devices. The primary factors influencing hemolysis include the shear stress and exposure time experienced by red blood cells. In addition, factors such as local negative pressure and temperature may also impact hemolysis. The different combinations of hemolysis prediction models and their empirical constants lead to significant variations in prediction results; compared to the power-law model, the OPO model better accounts for the complexity of turbulence. In terms of improving hemolytic performance, research has primarily focused on optimizing blood pump structures, such as adjustments to pump gaps, impellers, and guide vanes. A small number of scholars have studied hemolytic performance through control modes of blood pump speed and the selection of blood-compatible materials. This paper reviews the main factors influencing hemolysis, prediction methods, and improvement strategies for rotary blood pumps, which are currently the most widely used. It also discusses the limitations in current hemolysis research and provides an outlook on future research directions.

Objective To explore the value of combined ultrasound parameters, including the hepatorenal index (HRI) and renal resistance index (RRI), with cystatin C (CysC) in monitoring early acute kidney injury (AKI) after liver transplantation. Methods Perioperative data from 121 liver transplant recipients who received organs from donation after brain death were collected. The HRI and RRI of the recipients were measured on postoperative days 1-7 and at 1 month, and the CysC levels were measured on postoperative day 1. The recipients were divided into the AKI group (n=53) and the non-AKI group (n=68) based on whether AKI occurred within 7 days after operation. The data of the two groups were compared, and the ultrasound parameters before and after recovery in the AKI group were analyzed. The value of combined HRI, RRI and CysC in monitoring AKI was also analyzed. Results AKI occurred in 53 recipients, with an incidence rate of 43.8%, including 30 cases of stage 1, 18 cases of stage 2, and 5 cases of stage 3. Among them, 49 cases occurred on postoperative day 1, and 4 cases occurred on postoperative day 2. Of these, 43 cases recovered within 7 days after surgery, 8 cases recovered within 2 months after surgery, 1 case was lost to follow-up, and 1 case received renal replacement therapy. The body mass index and preoperative CysC levels were higher in the AKI group than in the non-AKI group, and the operative time was longer in the AKI group than in the non-AKI group (all P < 0.05). The HRI on postoperative day 1 was lower in the AKI group than in the non-AKI group, while the RRI and CysC levels were higher (all P < 0.05). When AKI occurred, the HRI was lower than the baseline level, and the RRI was higher than the baseline level. As AKI recovered, the HRI gradually increased, and the RRI gradually decreased. The receiver operating characteristic curve analysis showed that the sensitivity and specificity of HRI ≤ 1.12 for predicting AKI were 0.623 and 0.878, respectively, with an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.801. The sensitivity and specificity of RRI ≥ 0.65 for predicting AKI were 0.878 and 0.676, respectively, with an AUC of 0.825. The sensitivity and specificity of CysC ≥ 1.38 mg/L for predicting AKI were 0.736 and 0.882, respectively, with an AUC of 0.851 (all P<0.01). The combination of HRI and CysC (AUC=0.897, P<0.01), RRI and CysC (AUC=0.910, P<0.01), and all three parameters combined (AUC=0.934, P<0.01) were more effective than using each parameter alone. Conclusions HRI and RRI may be used to monitor the occurrence and recovery of early AKI after liver transplantation. The combination of these two parameters with CysC has a high application value in monitoring early AKI after liver transplantation.

To investigate the therapeutic effect and related mechanisms of hordenine on ovalbumin (OVA)-induced allergic rhinitis (AR) in rats, HE and AB-PAS staining were used to detect the improvement of pathological damage to the nasal mucosa induced by hordenine. ELISA was employed to detect the effect of hordenine on OVA-sIgE in serum and IL-4 in the nasal mucosa supernatant of rats. IHC and Western blot experiments were undertaken to examine the effect of hordenine on Th1/Th2 cell balance. Bioinformatics analysis was performed to predict pathways, which were verified by in vivo and in vitro experiments. The experimental results showed that hordenine could alleviate the behavioral manifestations of OVA-induced AR rats, alleviate nasal mucosal pathological damage caused by AR, and reduce the secretion of OVA-sIgE and IL-4. In addition, hordenine could regulate the Th1/Th2 balance. Bioinformatics analysis results showed that the potential pathway of action of hordenine on AR was the phosphoinositide 3 kinase (PI3K)/protein kinase B (Akt) signaling pathway. The in vivo experimental results showed that the expression of PI3K and p-Akt proteins in the nasal mucosa of the model group rats was significantly increased (P < 0.01), and that the protein expression level was significantly decreased after the administration of hordenine, which was also confirmed by an in vitro experiment. This study suggests that hordenine may regulate Th1/Th2 cell balance through the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway, thereby exerting an alleviating effect on OVA-induced AR.

Objective: To analyze the current status and influencing factors of psychological crisis among college students, so as to provide a scientific basis for the formulation of psychological crisis intervention plans in colleges and universities. Methods: From September to December 2024, 645 college students from a medical undergraduate university in Heilongjiang Province were selected with a convenience sampling method. A convergent mixed analysis design was used. Quantitative analysis was conducted using College Students Psychological Crisis Screening Scale, Emotion Regulation Questionnaire, Short-Egna Minnen av Barndoms Uppfostran and Perceived School Climate Scale. Binary Logistic regression analysis was used to explore the related factors of psychological crisis among college students. Qualitative research was conducted on 15 college students with psychological crisis identified in the quantitative analysis by a purposive sampling method. The interview data were organized and analyzed using the thematic framework analysis method. Results: Among the surveyed college students, 92 (14.3%) had psychological crisis. Binary Logistic regression analysis results showed that positive parenting style ( OR=0.97,95%CI =0.95-0.99), negative parenting style ( OR=1.01,95%CI =1.00-1.02), cognitive reappraisal ( OR=0.88, 95%CI =0.83-0.92), expressive suppression ( OR=1.08, 95%CI =1.02-1.15), and perceived campus atmosphere ( OR=0.97, 95%CI =0.95-0.98) were all related factors of psychological crisis among college students ( P <0.05). The qualitative analysis results showed that there were three themes for the influencing factors of college students psychological crisis, including differential impact of emotion regulation strategies on psychological state, shaping of psychological state of college students by family and bidirectional effect of perceived campus atmosphere on psychological state. Mixed analysis results showed that the influencing factors of college students psychological crisis were consistent in terms of emotion regulation strategies, and were expansive in terms of parenting style and perceived campus atmosphere. Conclusion Schools and mental health service departments can reduce the risk of psychological crisis by optimizing cognitive reappraisal and reducing expressive suppression, improve the level of psychological crisis by strengthening positive family interaction and blocking negative parenting style, and maintain the mental health level of college students by building a supportive campus environment and alleviating high pressure.

AIM: To analyze the recovery of stereopsis and its influencing factors in children with intermittent exotropia(IXT)after binocular vision training.METHODS: A total of 166 cases of IXT children who were treated in our hospital from October 2021 to October 2023(2 cases lost their follow-up, and 164 cases were finally included)were included as the research object, taking 36 cases with no stereopsis after binocular vision training in eye position correction surgery as no stereopsis group, and other 128 cases as stereopsis group. All the children underwent eye position correction surgery under general anesthesia, and all received binocular vision training for 6 mo after surgery. The recovery of stereoscopic vision of IXT children after binocular vision training was counted, and the influencing factors of stereoscopic vision recovery of IXT children after binocular vision training were analyzed by single factor and multi-factor Logistic regression analysis.RESULTS: The incidence of postoperative no stereopsis was 22.0%. The proportion of children with an age ≥9 years old, course of disease ≥1 a and anisometropia in the group without stereoscopic vision after operation was larger than the group with stereoscopic vision(all P<0.05). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that the course of disease ≥1 a, age ≥9 years old and anisometropia were independent influencing factors for the recovery of stereoscopic vision in IXT children after binocular vision training(OR=1.470, 1.626, 1.539, all P<0.05).CONCLUSION: Age ≥9 years old, course of disease ≥1 a, and anisometropia are the independent influencing factors of stereopsis recovery of IXT children after binocular vision training. Therefore, targeted intervention measures can be given to high-risk children to improve the stereopsis recovery of IXT children after binocular vision training.

OBJECTIVE To optimize the prescription pre-review system in our hospital and evaluate its application effects. METHODS Aiming at the problems of imperfect rule base and high false positive rate in the early operation of the system， optimization measures were taken， including improving the content of the rule base， adjusting the interception level and prompt mode， refining the working model of prescription review pharmacists， and strengthening clinical communication. A retrospective cohort study was conducted， with prescription data from June to December 2023 （before optimization） as the control group and June to December 2024 （after optimization） as the observation group. Through inter group comparative analysis， the actual effect of optimizing the prescription pre-approval system was evaluated. RESULTS The prescription qualified rate increased from （82.51± 4.04）% before optimization to （90.98±1.55）% after optimization； the false positive rate decreased from （20.87±1.64）% before optimization to （7.41±2.04）% after optimization. The monthly range of prescription qualified rate narrowed from 10.24% to 4.11%， and the coefficient of variation decreased from 4.92% to 1.73%. The monthly range of false positive rate slightly increased from 4.40% to 5.34%， the coefficient of variation rose from 8.32% to 26.18%. CONCLUSIONS Through multi-dimensional optimizations of the prescription pre-review system in our hospital， its prescription review efficiency has been significantly enhanced， the quality of prescriptions has steadily improved， and the accuracy of reviews has notably improved.

AIM: To evaluate the safety and efficacy of allogeneic intrastromal lenticule implantation combined with corneal collagen cross-linking(CXL)in patients with moderate to advanced keratoconus.METHODS: A retrospective case series analysis was conducted. A total of 19 patients(20 eyes)with moderate to advanced keratoconus who underwent combined allogeneic intrastromal lenticule implantation and CXL at the Jinan Mingshui Eye Hospital from June 2021 to December 2023 were included. The uncorrected distance visual acuity(UCVA), thinnest corneal thickness, central corneal epithelial thickness, anterior corneal flat keratometry(Kf), steep keratometry(Ks), and mean keratometry(Km), as well as the first applanation time(A1T), the first applanation length(A1L), the velocity during the first applanation moment(VIN), the second applanation time(A2T), the second applanation length(A2L), the velocity during the second applanation moment(VOUT), highest concavity time(HCT), highest concavity radius(HCR), peak distance(PD), deformation amplitude(DA), stiffness parameter at first applanation(SP-A1), integrated radius(IR), central corneal thickness(CCT), intraocular pressure(IOP), corneal thickness-corrected IOP, biomechanically intraocular pressure IOP(bIOP), and corneal thickness variation rate(ARTH)were compared between the two groups before surgery and at 1 wk, 1, 3 and 6 mo after surgery.RESULTS: All patients successfully completed the surgery without any intraoperative complications. No significant differences were observed between pre-operative and post-operative measurements for UCVA or the corneal biomechanical parameters, including A1L, A2L, PD, A1T, A2T, VIN, VOUT, DA, IOP, and bIOP(all P>0.05). Significant differences were found between pre-operative and post-operative values for corneal thinnest point thickness, central corneal epithelial thickness, Kf, Ks, Km, and the corneal biomechanical parameters, including HCT, HCR, SP-A1, ARTH, IR, and CCT(all P<0.05). The anterior corneal curvature demonstrated an initial increase followed by a decrease post-operatively. Furthermore, significant differences were observed between pre-operative and post-operative values for HCT, HCR, SP-A1, ARTH, IR, and CCT(all P<0.005).CONCLUSION: Allogenic intrastromal lenticule implantation combined with corneal collagen cross-linking demonstrates favorable safety and stability in treating moderate-to-advanced keratoconus. This combined procedure effectively increases corneal thickness and rigidity, resulting in corneas that are more resistant to deformation postoperatively.
