Acute-on-chronic liver failure （ACLF） is a complex clinical syndrome， and early identification and accurate prognostic evaluation are of great importance for patient treatment and management. In recent years， with in-depth research on the pathogenesis of ACLF， multiple prognostic biomarkers have been proposed and used in clinical practice. This article systematically reviews the research advances in prognostic biomarkers for ACLF from the aspects of clinical predictive models， immunological biomarkers， metabolic biomarkers， genetic and epigenetic biomarkers， microbiome-related biomarkers， and emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence and multi-omics， and it also discusses the value and application prospects of these biomarkers in the prognostic evaluation of ACLF and proposes future research directions， in order to provide a scientific and comprehensive reference for clinicians， guide individualized treatment and management of ACLF patients， and finally improve the clinical outcomes of patients.

AIM: To investigate the influence of relevant inflammatory markers in peripheral blood on the progression of neovascular glaucoma(NVG)secondary to diabetic retinopathy(DR)patients.METHODS: Retrospective case-control study. Patients were categorized into two groups based on the presence or absence of NVG: those with proliferative diabetic retinopathy(PDR)alone(PDR group, n=148)and those with NVG secondary to PDR(NVG secondary to PDR group, n=142). Peripheral blood inflammatory markers were evaluated, including white blood cell-related indices, neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio(NLR), platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio(PLR), monocyte-to-lymphocyte ratio(MLR), and systemic immune-inflammation index(SII). The distinctions in peripheral blood inflammatory markers between the two groups of patients and their relationships with NVG secondary to PDR were analyzed.RESULTS:No statistically significant differences were observed in basic characteristics between the two groups, confirming their comparability. However, significant differences were found in eosinophil percentage and MLR between the PDR group and the NVG secondary to PDR group(all P<0.05), with both values being significantly higher in the NVG secondary to PDR group. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis revealed that the eosinophil percentage and the MLR were factors influencing the development of patients with NVG secondary to PDR.CONCLUSION: Eosinophil percentage and MLR may be associated with the progression of PDR to NVG, and could serve as potential predictive markers for NVG development in PDR patients.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the efficacy of Shuanghua drink in treating primary dysmenorrhea in the rat model and explore its mechanism of action. MethodsAn oxytocin-induced writhing mouse model was established to evaluate the analgesic effect of Shuanghua drink. Forty-eight non-pregnant female institute of cancer research （ICR） mice were randomly divided into six groups， including a blank group， a model group， an ibuprofen group （85.00 mg·kg^-1）， a low-dose group of Shuanghua drink （7.14 mL·kg^-1）， a medium-dose group of Shuanghua drink （14.28 mL·kg^-1）， and a high-dose group of Shuanghua drink （28.57 mL·kg^-1）. Each group consisted of eight mice. All treatment groups received daily intragastric administration at corresponding doses for 10 consecutive days. One hour after the final administration， 2 U of oxytocin was intraperitoneally injected per mouse. The writhing latency and number of writhing within 20 minutes were recorded. A primary dysmenorrhea rat model was established by using estradiol benzoate and oxytocin to evaluate the inhibitory effect of Shuanghua drink on the contraction of uterine smooth muscle. Forty-eight non-pregnant female Sprague-Dawley （SD） rats were divided into six groups， including a blank group， a model group， an ibuprofen group （51.00 mg·kg^-1）， a low-dose group of Shuanghua drink （4.28 mL·kg^-1）， a medium-dose group of Shuanghua drink （8.57 mL·kg^-1）， and a high-dose group of Shuanghua drink （17.10 mL·kg^-1）. Each group consisted of eight rats. Rats received subcutaneous injections of estradiol benzoate for 10 consecutive days to enhance uterine sensitivity. On the eleventh day， oxytocin （2 U/rat） was intraperitoneally administered to induce abnormal uterine contractions for establishing the primary dysmenorrhea model. All treatment groups received daily intragastric administration from the second day of modeling for 10 days. The effects of Shuanghua drink were evaluated by using parameters including uterine motility and the variation rate of uterine motility. The mechanism of action was investigated in rats with primary dysmenorrhea. The content of prostaglandin F_2α （PGF_2α）， prostaglandin E₂ （PGE₂）， thromboxane B₂ （TXB₂）， prostacyclin metabolite （6-keto-PGF_1α）， and β-endorphin （β-EP） in uterine tissue of rats was detected by using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA）. The changes in the content of nitric oxide （NO） and inducible nitric oxide synthase （iNOS） were analyzed via colorimetric assay. Western blot was performed to determine the content of phosphorylated inhibitor of kappa B kinase beta （p-IKKβ）/IKKβ， phosphorylated inhibitor of kappa B alpha （p-IκBα）， IκBα， phosphorylated p65 （p-p65）， p65， and cyclooxygenase-2 （COX-2） proteins in uterine tissue of rats. ResultsIn the oxytocin-induced writhing mouse model， the model group exhibited significantly shortened writhing latency and increased writhing frequency compared to the control group （P<0.01）. Both the ibuprofen group and the high-dose group of Shuanghua drink displayed prolonged writhing latency （P<0.05）， while the ibuprofen group and the low-dose， medium-dose， and high-dose groups of Shuanghua drink exhibited reduced writhing frequency （P<0.01）. In the primary dysmenorrhea rat model， the uterine motility and its variation rate in the model group were significantly higher than those in the blank group （P<0.01）. These parameters were markedly suppressed by ibuprofen and Shuanghua drink at all tested doses （P<0.01）. For the mechanism of action， the model group showed significantly increased PGF_2α/PGE₂， TXB₂/6-keto-PGF_1α， NO， and iNOS in uterine tissue （P<0.05， P<0.01） and significantly decreased β-EP （P<0.01）. These parameters were significantly attenuated in the ibuprofen group and the low-dose， medium-dose， and high-dose groups of Shuanghua drink. The PGF_2α/PGE₂ （P<0.01）， TXB₂/6-keto-PGF_1α （P<0.01）， NO （medium-dose group P<0.05）， and iNOS （P<0.01） were reduced， and the β-EP （medium-dose group P<0.05） was up-regulated. Compared to the model group， the ibuprofen group and medium-dose group of Shuanghua drink showed significantly increased content of β-EP in the serum of rats （P<0.05）. Compared to the blank group， the model group showed significantly elevated expressions of COX-2， p-IKKβ/IKKβ， p-IκBα/IκBα， and p-p65/p65 proteins （P<0.01） and significantly reduced anti-inflammatory protein IκBα （P<0.05）. Compared to the model group， the ibuprofen group and the low-dose， medium-dose， and high-dose groups of Shuanghua drink showed significantly reduced expressions of COX-2 （P<0.01）， p-IKKβ/IKKβ （P<0.01）， p-IκBα/IκBα （P<0.05， P<0.01）， and p-p65/p65（P<0.01） and up-regulated expression of IκBα protein （P<0.05， P<0.01）. ConclusionShuanghua drink effectively alleviates primary dysmenorrhea through analgesia and suppression of abnormal contractions of uterine smooth muscle. Its mechanism may be mediated by reduced levels of PGF_2α/PGE₂， TXB₂/6-keto-PGF_1α， iNOS， and NO， elevated β-EP level， and inhibited COX-2/NF-κB signaling pathway.

Objective:To analyze and compare the pathological data characteristics of patients with simple papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) and PTC combined with Hashimoto’s thyroiditis (HT), so as to provide clinical treatment ideas.Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed on the medical records of 326 PTC patients who met the requirements and underwent surgical treatment in the Department of Thyroid and Breast Surgery, Nanjing Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine from Jan. 2020 to May. 2022. There were 81 males and 245 females. They were divided into PTC group and HT-PTC group, according to whether they were combined with HT. Clinical data were collected and organized. The collection indicators included patient gender, age, body mass index (BMI), five preoperative thyroid function items including free triiodothyronine (FT3), free thyroxine (FT4), triiodothyronine (T3), thyroxine (T4), thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH), BRAF gene mutation, single or bilateral lesions, single or multiple lesions, largest postoperative pathological tumor lesions diameter, cervical lymph node metastasis (LNM) status, etc. At the same time, all patients were divided into CLNM group and no CLNM group according to CLNM status. The two groups were compared in terms of gender, age ≥55 years old, whether combined with HT, number of lesions, unilateral and bilateral, extraglandular invasion, microcarcinoma, and BRAF gene. Statistical software was used to analyze the results. t test, χ2 test, and logistic regression analysis were adopted. P<0.05 indicates that the difference is statistically significant. Results:The proportion of female patients in both groups was higher, and the proportion of female patients in the HT-PTC group (90/100, 90%) was higher than that in the PTC group (155/226, 69.59%). HT-PTC patients were younger than patients in the PTC group (43.03±12.72 vs. 43.70±12.63) years old, and their TSH (2.71±1.69 vs. 2.02±1.46) uIU/mL was higher. The differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05). There were no statistically significant differences in BMI, FT3, FT4, T3, or T4 (all P>0.05). The HT-PTC group had a lower proportion of BRAF gene mutations [87/100 (87%) vs. 212/226 (93.8%) ], a smaller maximum tumor diameter (1.06±0.73 vs. 1.32±0.97 cm), and a lower proportion of CLNM [37 /100 (37%) vs. 118/226 (52.2%) ]. The number of LNMs with metastasis is less (3.33±2.21 vs. 4.76±4.00), and it was more likely to be multifocal [44/100 (44%) vs. 73/226 (32.74%) ]. All differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05), and the differences in bilateral gland lobes involvement and extra-glandular invasion were not statistically significant. When accompanied by CLNM, gender (male vs. female) [55/100 (35.45%/64.52%) vs. 26/145 (15.2%/84.85%) ], age ≥ 55 years (yes vs. no) [21/134 (13.55) %/86.45%) vs. 50/121 (29.24%/70.76%) ], HT (yes vs. no) [37/118 (23.87%/76.13%) vs. 63/108 (36.84%/63.16%), number of lesions (single focus vs. multiple focus) [90/65 (41.94%/50.06%) vs. 119/52 (69.59%/30.41%) ], microcarcinoma (yes vs. no) [83/72 (53.55%/45.45%) vs. 139/32 (81.29%/18.71%) ] and extraglandular invasion (with vs. without) [38/117 (24.52%/75.48%) vs. 27/144 (17.42%/84.21%) ] had statistics significance (both P<0.05). There was no statistical significance in bilateral lesion involvement or BRAF gene mutation (all P>0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that age, microcarcinoma, HT, gender, and number of lesions were independent risk factors for CLNM, and male gender and multifocal cancer were risk factors for CLNM. Age ≥55 years, microcarcinoma, and combined HT were negatively associated with CLNM. Conclusions:HT may promote the occurrence of PTC, but can inhibit its development. In the short term, patients with HT can have a better prognosis than those with simple PTC.

The COVID-19 epidemic has spread to the whole world for three years and has had a serious impact on human life, health and economic activities. China's epidemic prevention and control has gone through the following stages: emergency unconventional stage, emergency normalization stage, and the transitional stage from the emergency normalization to the "Category B infectious disease treated as Category B" normalization, and achieved a major and decisive victory. The designated hospitals for prevention and control of COVID-19 epidemic in Tianjin has successfully completed its tasks in all stages of epidemic prevention and control, and has accumulated valuable experience. This article summarizes the experience of constructing a hospital infection prevention and control system during the "Category B infectious disease treated as Category A" period in designated hospital. The experience is summarized as the "Cluster" hospital infection prevention and control system, namely "three rings" outside, middle and inside, "three districts" of green, orange and red, "three things" before, during and after the event, "two-day pre-purification" and "two-director system", and "one zone" management. In emergency situations, we adopt a simplified version of the cluster hospital infection prevention and control system. In emergency situations, a simplified version of the "Cluster" hospital infection prevention and control system can be adopted. This system has the following characteristics: firstly, the system emphasizes the characteristics of "cluster" and the overall management of key measures to avoid any shortcomings. The second, it emphasizes the transformation of infection control concepts to maximize the safety of medical services through infection control. The third, it emphasizes the optimization of the process. The prevention and control measures should be comprehensive and focused, while also preventing excessive use. The measures emphasize the use of the least resources to achieve the best infection control effect. The fourth, it emphasizes the quality control work of infection control, pays attention to the importance of the process, and advocates the concept of "system slimming, process fattening". Fifthly, it emphasizes that the future development depends on artificial intelligence, in order to improve the quality and efficiency of prevention and control to the greatest extent. Sixth, hospitals need to strengthen continuous training and retraining. We utilize diverse training methods, including artificial intelligence, to ensure that infection control policies and procedures are simple. We have established an evaluation and feedback mechanism to ensure that medical personnel are in an emergency state at all times.

Purpose To investigate the clinical value of gadolinium ethoxybenzyl diethylenetriamine pentaacetic acid(Gd-EOB-DTPA)-enhanced MRI for the preoperative evaluation of colorectal cancer liver metastases(CRCLM).Materials and Methods Fifty-six CRCLM patients with 156 CRCLM lesions confirmed by surgical pathology in the First Affiliated Hospital of Henan University of Chinese Medicine from September 2019 to March 2023 were collected,and all underwent dynamic Gd-EOB-DTPA-enhanced MRI.The characteristic manifestations of T2WI,diffusion-weighted imaging(DWI),arterial phase and hepatobiliary phase(HBP)were observed,and the detection rate of each sequence was calculated,and then the signal intensity ratio of lesions to liver parenchyma on HBP and the apparent diffusion coefficient(ADC)were calculated.The ADC values of lesions with reversed target and target signs and lesions with homogeneous and heterogeneous hypointensity on HBP and the detection rate of each sequence were compared.Results Among 156 CRCLM lesions,20.51%(32/156)and 38.46%(60/156)exhibited a target appearance on T2WI,51.28%(80/156)displayed a target sign on DWI,73.72%(115/156)showed rim enhancement on the arterial phase,and 34.62%(54/156)presented a target sign on HBP.The mean ADC value of lesions with reversed target and target signs on HBP did not significantly differ from that of lesions with homogeneous and heterogeneous hypointensity on HBP[(0.98±0.43)×10-3 mm2/s vs.(1.01±0.47)×10-3 mm2/s;t=-0.340,P=0.327].Based on the size of CRCLM lesions,three groups were categorized,including<1.0 cm(41 lesions),1.0-2.0 cm(55 lesions),and>2.0 cm(60 lesions).The overall detection rate of HBP(96.79%)was the highest compared with T2WI,DWI and Gd-EOB-DTPA four-phase dynamic contrast-enhanced multiphase imaging(P<0.05).Regarding<1.0 cm lesions,the detection rate of HBP(87.80%)was superior to that of T2WI,DWI and Gd-EOB-DTPA four-phase dynamic contrast-enhanced multiphase imaging(P<0.05).Conclusion Gd-EOB-DTPA-enhanced MRI has important clinical value for the preoperative evaluation of CRCLM,especially the features of target sign or reversed target sign on HBP and the excellent efficacy of detecting microscopic lesions.

BACKGROUND:Nano-zirconium dioxide has good application potential in the field of bone tissue repair.Studying the effect of nano-zirconium dioxide on osteogenic differentiation will help to promote the clinical application of nano-zirconium dioxide in the treatment of bone defects. OBJECTIVE:To explore the effect of nano-zirconium dioxide on the osteogenic differentiation of ectomesenchymal stem cells in the nasal mucosa. METHODS:Ectomesenchymal stem cells derived from rat nasal mucosa were isolated and cultured,and the biotoxicity of nano-zirconium dioxide to the cells was detected by CCK-8 assay.The biosafety concentration was selected according to the cytotoxicity,and the cells were randomly divided into a control group,a nano-zirconium dioxide group,and a nano-hydroxyapatite group.Osteogenic differentiation of cells was directionally induced in each group.On day 7 of induced differentiation,alkaline phosphatase staining was performed.qRT-PCR and western blot assay were used to detect the expression of early osteogenic markers(Runx2 and Osx).On day 21 of induced differentiation,alizarin red staining was conducted.qRT-PCR and western blot assay were utilized to determine the expression levels of late osteogenic markers(OPN and OCN). RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)The median lethal concentration of nano-zirconium dioxide on ectomesenchymal stem cells in nasal mucosa was 0.6 mg/mL.In the experiment,the mass concentration of 200 μg/mL was selected for intervention.Zirconium dioxide had no significant effect on the proliferation of the cells.(2)Compared with the control group,the alkaline phosphatase staining of the cells in the nano-zirconium dioxide group was more obvious and the level of cell mineralization was higher,but there was no significant difference compared with the nano-hydroxyapatite.(3)Compared with the control group,the expression of bone-related genes and proteins increased significantly,but there was no significant difference compared with nano-hydroxyapatite.(4)The results show that nano-zirconium dioxide has good biological safety and can promote the osteogenic differentiation of ectomesenchymal stem cells in the nasal mucosa.This promoting effect is equivalent to that of nano-hydroxyapatite.

Objective:To investigate the safety and feasibility of endoscopic thyroidectomy by gasless trans subclavian approach (ETGTA) in treatment of papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) .Methods:The clinical data of 148 patients with PTC radical operation admitted to the Department of Thyroid and Breast Surgery, Nanjing Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine Affiliated to Nanjing University of Chinese Medicine from Jul. 2020 to May. 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. They were divided into subclavian approach group (53 cases) and modified miccoli group (95 cases) according to different surgical approaches. The operation time, intraoperative bleeding volume, postoperative drainage flow, postoperative drainage days, postoperative hospital stay, postoperative complications and cosmetic satisfaction were recorded in the 2 groups. Statistical software was used to analyze the results, including t test, Mann-Whitney U test, χ2 test, etc. P<0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results:There were no significant differences in age, sex ratio, maximum diameter, stage, tumor lesion or surgical method between the 2 groups ( P>0.05). The postoperative drainage days increased in the subclavian group than in the modified miccoli group (4.57±2.45 vs. 2.98±1.07) ( P<0.01), but there was no statistical difference in operation time, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative drainage, or postoperative hospital stay between the two groups ( P>0.05). The incidence of swallowing discomfort at 1 month [5.6% (3/53) vs. 18.9% (18/95), P=0.04] and 3 months [0% (0/53) vs. 7.4% (7/95) , P=0.04], anterior cervical area tightness or stiffness at 1 month [0% (0/53) vs. 11.6% (11/95), P=0.01] and 3 months [0% (0/53) vs. 8.4% (8/95), P=0.03] were less than that of the modified miccoli group, and the difference was statistically significant (4.1±0.7 vs. 2.4±0.8) ( P<0.01), and the cosmetic satisfaction of the subclavian approach was higher than that of the modified miccoli group ( P<0.01). There was no significant difference in postoperative temporary recurrent laryngeal nerve injury, postoperative 3d neck pain, postoperative hand-foot numbness or postoperative hematoma between the two groups (all P>0.05) . Conclusion:The radical resection of papillary thyroid carcinoma without inflatable subclavicular approach is safe and feasible, with few postoperative complications and better cosmetic effect, which is worth popularizing.
