OBJECTIVE To provide a reference for anticoagulant therapy and pharmaceutical care of the breast cancer patient with pulmonary thromboembolism （PTE） accompanied by multiple comorbidities. METHODS Clinical pharmacists participated in the diagnosis and treatment of a breast cancer patient with PTE accompanied by severe thrombocytopenia and suspected antiphospholipid syndrome secondary to systemic lupus erythematosus， and provided personalized pharmaceutical care as developing individualized anticoagulation plans and monitoring patient bleeding. For the occurrence of PTE， the clinical pharmacist recommended stopping all breast cancer drugs. The clinical pharmacists also cleared that severe thrombocytopenia was not the absolute contraindication for anticoagulant treatment and suggested fondaparinux sodium as the initial anticoagulation regimen. Further， warfarin was recommended as the long-term anticoagulation regimen with a recommended treatment course of at least 3-6 months by the clinical pharmacists. Whether to continue indefinite anticoagulation therapy was based on the results of the antiphospholipid antibodies after 12 weeks combined with the tumor treatment regimen. RESULTS The physicians adopted the advice of the clinical pharmacists. After treatment， the patient’s blood phlegm and anhelation disappeared and the platelets returned to normal. The patient was allowed to be discharged with medication. CONCLUSIONS Taking the “anticoagulation-bleeding” as the starting point， the clinical pharmacists develop individualized medication plans for patients so as to ensure the safety and effectiveness of medication in the patient by providing pharmaceutical care， such as analyzing the causal relationship between breast cancer treatment-related drugs and PTE， assessing the risk of bleeding and thrombus recurrence， and monitoring patients’ bleeding symptoms and signs and coagulation indicators.

This case report describes a 68-year-old male patient diagnosed with primary hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). After receiving Yttrium-90 microsphere selective internal radiation therapy (⁹⁰Y-SIRT), the tumor significantly reduced in size, and tumor markers alpha fetoprotein (AFP) and abnormal prothrombin (PIVKA-Ⅱ) decreased. Postoperative pathological results showed minimal residual tumor cells, indicating that ⁹⁰Y-SIRT has good efficacy and safety in downstaging and conversion of HCC, thereby facilitating subsequent surgical resection.

Objective To investigate the value of peripheral blood soluble interleukin-2 receptor(sIL-2R),CD4+lymphocyte percentage/CD8+lymphocyte percentage ratio(hereinafter referred to as CD4+/CD8+)and tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)in evaluating the efficacy of chemotherapy in elderly patients with newly treated active pulmonary tuberculosis.Methods A total of 102 elderly patients with newly treated active tu-berculosis admitted to the hospital from December 2019 to December 2022 were enrolled in the study as the observation group,and 102 healthy people aged 60 and older who underwent physical examination in the hos-pital during the same period were enrolled as the control group.The levels of sIL-2R,TNF-α and CD4+/CD8+in peripheral blood were compared between the two groups,and the correlations between sIL-2R,TNF-α and CD4+/CD8+were analyzed.The observation group was treated with 2HRZE/4HR anti-tuberculosis treatment regimen.The levels of sIL-2R,TNF-α and CD4+/CD8+in peripheral blood of patients with different efficacy before treatment,1 month and 6 months after treatment in the observation group were compared.The correla-tion between sIL-2R,CD4+/CD8+,TNF-α levels and therapeutic effect was analyzed.The receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was used to analyze the efficacy of indicators in evaluating the efficacy of chemo-therapy in elderly patients.Results The levels of sIL-2R and TNF-α in the observation group were higher than those in the control group,while CD4+/CD8+was lower than that in the control group,and the differ-ences were statistically significant(P＜0.05).In the observation group,sIL-2R and TNF-α were negatively correlated with CD4+/CD8+(P＜0.05),sIL-2R was positively correlated with TNF-α(P＜0.05).After 1 month and 6 months of treatment,the levels of sIL-2R and TNF-α in patients with apparent efficacy were low-er than those in patients with efficacy,and the latter were lower than those in patients with no effect,while the CD4+/CD8+in patients with apparent efficacy was higher than that in patients with efficacy,and the latter was higher than that in patients with no efficacy,and the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05).The levels of sIL-2R and TNF-α were negatively correlated with the efficacy(P＜0.05),and CD4+/CD8+was positively correlated with the efficacy(P＜0.05).ROC curve analysis showed that the area under the curve(AUC)of sIL-2R,CD4+/CD8+,and TNF-α used in combination to assess efficacy was significantly greater than the AUCs of the single indicators used in the assessment at each time point of treatment(P＜0.05),and the AUC of the combination of the indicators was greater after 6 months of treatment than after 1 month of treatment(P＜0.05).Conclusion The levels of sIL-2R,CD4+/CD8+and TNF-α are closely related to the ef-ficacy of chemotherapy in elderly patients with newly treated active pulmonary tuberculosis,and the combina-tion of the above indicators has certain reference value in evaluating the efficacy of chemotherapy in patients.

Objective:To evaluate the application of mind mapping in combination with scenario simulation teaching based on symptom management theory (SMT) in geriatric symptom nursing education, and to provide a basis for improving the quality of geriatric symptom nursing education.Methods:A total of 80 nursing students who interned in the Department of Geriatric Medicine of Peking Union Medical College Hospital from August 2022 to April 2023 were included in the study. They were divided into control group and experimental group according to the order of enrollment, with 40 students in each group. The control group employed traditional teaching methods, while the experimental group implemented a method of mind mapping in combination with scenario simulation teaching based on SMT. The general data, training assessment results, and teaching quality satisfaction were compared and analyzed between the two groups. SPSS 22.0 statistical software was used for t-test and chi-square test. Results:There were no significant differences between the two groups in general data such as age, gender, educational background, academic performance, and school of study. The experimental group showed higher scores in geriatric symptom nursing theory assessment [(86.57±8.41) vs. (80.83±9.16), P=0.018] and comprehensive skill assessment [(91.26±7.29) vs. (81.92±8.64), P<0.001], as compared with the control group. The experimental group also showed higher scores in teaching process [(24.52±1.56) vs. (20.18±0.98), P<0.001], teaching methods [(24.49±1.72) vs. (20.65±1.02), P<0.001], teaching effectiveness [(24.35±1.19) vs. (20.01±0.86), P<0.001], teaching content [(24.31±1.83) vs. (20.27±1.21), P<0.001], and overall satisfaction [(97.67±2.80) vs. (81.11±2.53), P<0.001]. Conclusions:The method of mind mapping in combination with scenario simulation teaching based on SMT has a significant positive effect on geriatric symptom nursing education. This method can improve the theoretical and comprehensive skill levels as well as the teaching quality satisfaction of nursing interns.

Objective:To evaluate the reliability and validity of the Chinese version of HEMO-FISS-QoL(HF-QoL) questionnaire (HF-QoL-C) in the Chinese population with hemorrhoids.Methods:From November 2021 to November 2022, a self-constructed general information questionnaire, HF-QoL-C, and the 36-item short form health survey (SF-36), Goligher classification, and Giordano severity of hemorrhoid symptom questionnaire (GSQ) were used to conduct a questionnaire survey on 760 hemorrhoid patients in the anorectal department of six hospitals. The data was analyzed for reliability and validity using SPSS 21.0 and AMOS 26.0 software.Results:The Cronbach's α coefficient of HF-QoL-C and its dimension ranged from 0.831 to 0.960, and the split coefficient was 0.832-0.915. Four common factors were extracted through principal component exploratory factor analysis. Confirmatory factor analysis indicated acceptable structural validity( χ2/ df=8.152, RSMEA=0.097, CFI=0.881, IFI=0.881, NFI=0.867). HF-QoL-C was correlated with SF36 and GSQ( r=-0.694, 0.501, both P<0.01). There were differences in the total score and dimensional scores of HF-QoL-C between surgical and drug treated patients, different grades of Goligher classification for hemorrhoidal disease, and different ranges of hemorrhoid prolapse (all P<0.001). No ceiling effect was found in the total score and the scores of each dimension(0.3%-2.0%). There was a floor effect in both psychological function and sexual activity dimensions (16.7%, 35.1%). Conclusion:HF-QoL-C has good reliability and validity, which can be used to measure the quality of life of Chinese hemorrhoid patients.

Objective:To explore the influencing factors of intracranial hemorrhage in elderly patients with acute occlusion of intracranial arteries after treatment and reperfusion.Methods:A retrospective selection was conducted on elderly patients with acute occlusion of the intracranial artery who were treated at the Hebei Petro China Central Hospital from February 2019 to May 2021. Sixty patients who received mechanical thrombectomy treatment were selected as the observation group, and 60 patients who received combined arterial and venous thrombolysis treatment were selected as the control group. The vascular reperfusion rate and incidence of intracranial hemorrhage were observed and compared between the two groups. Meanwhile, multiple logistic regression analysis was used to identify the influencing factors of intracranial hemorrhage.Results:The reperfusion rate of the observation group′s blood vessels was 85.00%(51/60), significantly higher than the control group′s 68.33%(41/60), and the difference was statistically significant (χ 2=4.658, P=0.031). The National Institutes of Health Neurological Deficit Score (NIHSS) of the observation group after treatment was (10.57±2.23), significantly lower than that of the control group (14.73±2.84), and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). The reperfusion rate of blood vessels in patients under 80 years old in the observation group was significantly higher than that in patients ≥80 years old ( P<0.05). The results of univariate analysis showed that there were statistically significant differences in age, NIHSS at admission, Alberta Stroke Program Early CT Score (ASPECTS), and neutrophil absolute value/lymphocyte ratio (NLR) between patients with and without intracranial hemorrhage (all P<0.05); Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that age ( OR=1.756, 95% CI: 1.184-2.604) and NIHSS at admission ( OR=2.392, 95% CI: 1.401-4.084) were risk factors for postoperative intracranial hemorrhage in elderly patients with acute occlusion of the large intracranial artery, while ASPECTS ( OR=0.364, 95% CI: 0.190-0.697) was a protective factor. Conclusions:Mechanical thrombectomy has good clinical efficacy in the treatment of elderly patients with acute occlusion of intracranial arteries, and is worthy of clinical use; The intracranial hemorrhage after reperfusion is mainly influenced by the patient′s age, NIHSS at admission, and ASPECTS.

As the important components of peripheral nerve tissue, Schwann cells and macrophages interact with each other throughout the whole process of nerve regeneration. They play a key role in Wallerian degeneration, myelin clearance, axonal regeneration and target organ reinnervation in promotion of the repair of a peripheral nerve. In order to improve the simple strategy in treatment of peripheral nerve injury (PNI), great attention about the significance interaction mechanism between Schwann cells and macrophages in the process of nerve regeneration should be paid, as well as the continuous improvement in researches on the repair mechanism of a PNI. Trauma Centre, Shanghai General Hospital, Shanghai Jiaotong University School of Medicine summarises the interaction mechanism of Schwann cells and macrophages in the regeneration of PNI through literature reviews, from 2015 to 2023, on the mechanisms of Schwann cells and macrophages in PNI repair, hence to draw new ideas in the research and clinical treatment of PNI.

ObjectiveThis study explored the application of Yiqi Zengmian prescription as a vaccine adjuvant， aiming to provide a new scheme for the prevention and control of corona virus disease 2019（COVID-19） with traditional Chinese medicine （TCM）. By analyzing the compatibility and efficacy， this paper examines the compatibility effect of Yiqi Zengmian prescription， which is modified from the classic tonifying agent Si Junzitang， as a vaccine adjuvant. MethodUsing the Database of Ancient Classical Prescriptions， this paper analyzed the composition of Yiqi Zengmian prescription and probed into the theoretical basis for the compatibility of this prescription from the properties， medicine combination， and efficacy. Furthermore， the compatibility effect of this prescription with vaccines was analyzed. ResultAs a TCM prescription， Yiqi Zengmian prescription focuses on the lung and spleen and enhances the Qi in the two organs. The lung governs Qi movement. The body breathes fresh air through the lungs and exchanges the turbid gas in the lungs， and the gas circulates alternately in the lungs to ensure the normal breathing of the human body. The spleen governing transportation and transformation is the hub for Qi movement， and Qi is the embodiment of metabolic function. By regulating qi movement and enhancing the functions of Qi and blood， Yiqi Zengmian prescription can enhance the immunogenicity of the vaccine， which provides a theoretical basis for enhancing the immune effects of vaccines. ConclusionYiqi Zengmian prescription has the effects of replenishing Qi and invigorating spleen， regulating Qi and drying dampness， and enhancing immunity. The in-depth analysis of the TCM theory of Yiqi Zengmian prescription as a vaccine adjuvant and the results of clinical and laboratory studies suggest that Yiqi Zengmian prescription may enhance the induction of immune response after vaccination and maintain the immune memory. However， the mechanism of Yiqi Zengmian prescription in regulating the complex immune network remains to be elucidated.

Lysine-specific demethylase 1 (LSD1) is the firstly discovered histone demethylase. In recent years, LSD1 has become a hot topic in the study of the development and progression of malignancies, and its expression is closely related to the poor prognosis of malignancies. At present, some studies have showed that LSD1 is strongly related to the proliferation, invasion and metastasis of triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). However, the specific mechanism is not fully understood. This article summarizes the possible mechanism of the development and progression in LSD1 and TNBC, and reviews the latest progress of LSD1 in the clinical research application of TNBC, so as to provide a reference for drug combination therapy in TNBC patients.
