ObjectiveTo evaluate the efficacy and safety of Xiaoji Hufei Formula in protecting children with close contact exposure to influenza， and to provide reference and evidence-based support for better clinical prevention and treatment of influenza in children. MethodsA multicenter， prospective， non-randomized， parallel， controlled trial was conducted from October 2021 to May 2022 in five hospitals， including Dongfang Hospital of Beijing University of Chinese Medicine. Confirmed influenza cases and influenza-like illness （ILI） cases were collected， and eligible children with close contact exposure to these cases were recruited in the outpatient clinics. According to whether the enrolled close contacts were willing to take Xiaoji Hufei formula for influenza prevention， they were assigned to the observation group （108 cases） or the control group （108 cases）. Follow-up visits were conducted on days 7 and 14 after enrollment. The primary outcomes were the incidence of ILI and the rate of laboratory-confirmed influenza. Secondary outcomes included traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） symptom score scale for influenza， influenza-related emergency （outpatient） visit rate， influenza hospitalization rate， and time to onset after exposure to influenza cases. ResultsA total of 216 participants were enrolled， with 108 in the observation group and 108 in the control group. Primary outcomes： （1） Incidence of ILI： The incidence was 12.0% （13/108） in the observation group and 23.1% （25/108） in the control group， with the observation group showing a significantly lower incidence （χ²=4.6， P<0.05）. （2） Influenza confirmation rate： 3.7% （4/108） in the observation group and 4.6% （5/108） in the control group， with no statistically significant difference. Secondary outcomes： （1） TCM symptom score scale： after onset， nasal congestion and runny nose scores differed significantly between the two groups （P<0.05）， while other symptoms such as fever， sore throat， and cough showed no significant differences. （2） Influenza-related emergency （outpatient） visit rate： 84.6% （11 cases） in the observation group and 96.0% （24 cases） in the control group， with no significant difference. （3） Time to onset after exposure： The median onset time after exposure to index patients was 7 days in the observation group and 4 days in the control group， with a statistically significant difference （P<0.05）. ConclusionIn previously healthy children exposed to infectious influenza cases under unprotected conditions， Xiaoji Hufei formula prophylaxis significantly reduced the incidence of ILI. Xiaoji Hufei Formula can be recommended as a specific preventive prescription for influenza in children.

OBJECTIVE To explore the role of clinical pharmacists in identifying paroxysmal spasms caused by drugs， and provide reference for rational drug use. METHODS Retrospective analysis was conducted on pharmaceutical care provided by clinical pharmacists for a patient with ceftazidime-avibactam （CZA-AVI） induced paroxysmal spasms. The clinical pharmacists identified， analyzed and summarized the clinical manifestations， risk factors and treatment methods of the nervous system toxicity caused by antibacterial drugs. According to the patient’s clinical symptoms and test results， the clinical pharmacists recommended temporarily discontinuing the use of polymyxin B and montelukast sodium， and halving the dose of CZA-AVI. The physicians did not adopt the recommendation to halve the dose of CZA-AVI， and when the patient’s neurologic toxicity did not improve， the clinical pharmacists again recommended discontinuing CZA-AVI， which was accepted by the physicians. RESULTS Clinical pharmacists analyzed the condition and checked related drugs that caused paroxysmal spasms of extremities one by one， and finally determined that CZA-AVI might be the drug that caused paroxysmal spasms of extremities in the patient. After stopping the drug， the patient’s symptoms improved and was transferred to a community hospital for rehabilitation treatment. CONCLUSIONS The dose of CZA-AVI should be adjusted according to the renal function and the neurotoxicity should be guarded against， especially for patients with advanced age， renal insufficiency， and the combined use of multiple drugs related to nephrotoxicity and neurotoxicity.

Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy of plasma exchange(PE)and double plasma molecular absorption system(DPMAS)in the treatment of primary biliary cholangitis(PBC)and the effect of this therapy on prognosis.Methods The clinical data on 526 PBC patients in our hospital from December 2013 to January 2022 were retrospectively analyzed.The patients were divided into different groups according to different therapies and then matched with propensity.The changes in symptoms,laboratory indexes and MELD scores were compared between two groups before and after treatment,and the clinical efficacy of artificial liver treatment for PBC patients was assessed.The effect of this treatment on the survival outcomes in these patients via comparing the cumulative survival rates at 3,6 and 12 months between the two groups.Results The efficiency was better in the group with artificial liver treatment in addition medical therapy than the group with medical treatment alone,the difference was statistically significant(76.7%vs.55.8%,χ2 = 4.214,and P = 0.040).Cox proportional risk regression showed that TBIL was an independent risk factor affecting the 3-,6-,or 12-month survival in PBC patients.Conclusions Artificial liver support system can effectively relieve symptoms,reduce levels of ALT,AST and TBIL,improve blood coagula-tion function,and lower MELD scores in PBC patients.This therapy revealed a trend of improvement in 3-,6-,or 12-month survival outcomes.

Long-term burden of illness and associated medication usage make osteoporosis(OP) a common complication of respiratory diseases. The pathogenic risk factors and treatment strategies for respiratory diseases related OP are similar to primary OP. However, due to differences in the pathogenesis of each disease, there are distinctions in the characteristics of bone loss and treatment approaches. Therefore, targeted diagnostic and therapeutic plans need to be formulated. This article provides a comprehensive review of secondary OP caused by common respiratory diseases in terms of epidemiological characteristics, related risk factors or possible mechanisms, changes in bone metabolic indexes or characteristics of bone damage, and progress in diagnosis and treatment. The aim of this review is to offer insights into the prevention and treatment of secondary OP related to respiratory diseases and promote the development of a multidisciplinary collaborative approach.

Objective To observe the effect of Qixian Tongluo Formula on contralateral corticospinal tract(CST)remodeling and motor functional recovery in rats with cerebral infarction,and to explore its potential molecular mechanism from the perspective of regulating factors related to never remodeling.Methods The rat middle cerebral artery occlusion(MCAO)model was established by silk thread ligation.Fifty model rats were randomly divided into model group,citicoline group(0.054 g·kg-1),Qixian Tongluo Formula low-,medium-and high-dose(7.83,15.66,31.32 g·kg-1)groups,and sham operation group,with 10 rats in each group.The intervention administration was started on the 3rd day after operation once a day for 26 consecutive days.On the 3rd,14th and 28th day after operation,the gross motor function was evaluated by Longa score,and the fine motor function was evaluated by beam-walking test(BWT)score.The contralateral motor cortex was injected with the nerve tracer biotin dextran amine(BDA)on the 14 th day after operation to anterogradely trace the CST.On the 28th day after operation,the expression of axonal growth associated protein-43(GAP-43)and BDA positive fibers in the contralateral motor cortex and cervical spinal cord were detected by immunohistochemistry.The co-localization areas of BDA positive fibers and presynaptic marker protein vesicular glutamate transporter 1(VGLUT1)in the cervical spinal cord gray matter were detected by immunofluorescence.The expressions of brain-derived neurotrophic factor(BDNF),glial cell-derived neurotrophic factor(GDNF),nerve growth factor(NGF)and nerve remodeling-associated inhibitory factor[Nogo-A,oligodendrocyte myelin glycoprotein(OMgp)and myelin-associated glycoprotein(MAG)]in the contralateral motor cortex were detected by Western Blot.Pearson correlation analysis was used to analyze the correlation between Longa score or BWT score and BDA/VGLUT1 co-localization area,respectively.Results Compared with the sham operation group,rats in the model group had obvious symptoms of motor function deficits,and the Longa scores were significantly increased(P＜0.01)and the BWT scores were significantly decreased(P＜0.05,P＜0.01)at each time point.The expression of GAP-43 in the contralateral motor cortex and cervical spinal cord was up-regulated(P＜0.05),the number of edge-crossing fibers from the posterior funiculus in cervical cord was increased(P＜0.05),the co-localization area of BDA/VGLUT1 in the gray matter of the cervical spinal cord was increased(P＜0.05),the expressions of BDNF,GDNF and NGF in the contralateral motor cortex were up-regulated(P＜0.05),while the expressions of Nogo-A,OMgp and MAG were down-regulated(P＜0.05).Compared with the model group,the Longa scores in each administration group on the 14th and 28th day after MCAO operation were significantly decreased(P＜0.01),the BWT scores were significantly increased(P＜0.01),the expression of GAP-43 in the contralateral motor cortex and cervical spinal cord was significantly up-regulated(P＜0.01).The number of edge-crossing fibers from the posterior funiculus in cervical cord was significantly increased(P＜0.01),the co-localization area of BDA/VGLUT1 in the gray matter of the cervical spinal cord was significantly increased(P＜0.01).The expressions of BDNF,GDNF and NGF in the contralateral motor cortex were significantly up-regulated(P＜0.01,P＜0.05),while the expressions of Nogo-A,OMgp and MAG were significantly down-regulated(P＜0.05),and the most significant effect was observed in the high dose group.The Longa score was negatively correlated with the co-localization area of BDA/VGLUT1(r=-0.89,P＜0.01),and the BWT score was positively correlated with the co-localization area of BDA/VGLUT1(r=0.84,P＜0.01).Conclusion Qixian Tongluo Formula can improve motor function through promoting contralateral CST remodeling in MCAO rats after cerebral infarction,and the molecular mechanism may be related to the regulation of the expression of nerve remodeling-associated factor in the contralateral motor cortex.

Objective This study aimed to explore the potential categories and characteristics of the fear of falling in the initial ambulation day among patients who underwent major abdominal surgery,analyze the factors influencing different potential categories,and propose implications for the care of such patients.Methods A total of 213 patients who u nderwent elective major abdominal surgery in the Department of Gastrointestinal Gland Surgery and Hepatobiliary Surgery in the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangxi Medical University from April to August 2023 were selected as the study subjects.The general data questionnaire and the Revised Version of the Fall Fear Scale and Patient Fall Risk Perception Scale were used to investigate the patients on the day they first got out of bed after surgery.The potential profile of the fall fear characteristics of the study subjects was analyzed,and the relevant influencing factors among different categories were explored by univariate analysis,variance analysis,and logistic regression analysis.Results A total of 202 patients who underwent major abdominal surgery were included in this study.The total score of the fear of falling when getting out of bed for the first time was(35.28±8.85).The fear of falling showed 3 potential categories:low-level fear(22.28％),medium-level fear(47.52％),and high-level fear(30.20％).A significant difference was found in the first time of getting out of bed among different types of fear(H=19.292,P＜0.001).Results of multi-factor logistic regression analysis showed that patients with high levels of personal activity factors in fall perception and those who underwent pancreatic surgery were likely to develop medium-level fear(P=0.037).Patients with high levels of perceived environmental factors,high levels of perceived personal activity factors,and low self-efficacy were likely to develop high-level fear(P＜0.05).Conclusion The fear of falling on the initial ambulation day in patients who underwent major abdominal surgery was distributed in categories,and the proportion of patients with medium and high fear levels was high.Patients'fall risk perception,self-efficacy,and surgical site are important factors influencing fear of falling.Therefore,postoperative nursing staff should focus on developing targeted health education and activity programs to reduce the level of fall fear.

The biological clock(also known as the circadian rhythm)is the fundamental reliance for all organisms on Earth to adapt and survive in the Earth's rotation environment.Circadian rhythm is the most basic regulatory mechanism of life activities,and plays a key role in maintaining normal physiological and biochemical homeostasis,disease occurrence and treatment.Recent studies have shown that the biologi-cal clock plays an important role in the development of oral tissues and in the occurrence and treatment of oral diseases.Since there is cur-rently no guiding literature on the research methods of biological clock in stomatology,researchers mainly conduct research based on pub-lished references,which has led to controversy about the research methods of biological clock in stomatology,and there are many confusions about how to rationally apply the research methods of circadia rhythms.In view of this,this expert consensus summarizes the characteristics of the biological clock and analyzes the shortcomings of the current biological clock research in stomatology,and organizes relevant experts to summarize and recommend 10 principles as a reference for the rational implementation of the biological clock in stomatology research.

Objective To analyze the pharmacodynamic interaction of esketamine and propofol in hysteroscopic surgery by response surface method.Methods Forty-five patients underwent elective hystero-scopic surgery,aged 18.5-64.0 years,BMI 18.5-28.0 kg/m2,ASA physical status Ⅰ or Ⅱ.Compound propofol target control infusion of esketamine(0,0.1,0.2,0.3,0.4,0.5,0.6,0.7,and 0.8 μg/ml)with different plasma drug concentrations were selected to keep the plasma drug concentration of esketamine unchanged,and the plasma drug concentration of propofol was increased step by step.To evaluate body re-sponse caused by dilation of the cervix.A response surface model was used to analyze the pharmacodynamic interaction of esketamine and propofol.Results The three-dimensional response surface of esketamine(0.0-0.8 μg/ml)and propofol(1.0-7.0 μg/ml)showed that the two have an additive effect in sedation and inhibition of body activity reaction caused by dilated cervix.The median effective concentration(EC50)of esketamine was 0.61 μg/ml(95％CI 0.41-0.81 μg/ml),and the EC50 of propofol was 4.69 μg/ml(95％CI 3.17-6.21 μg/ml)when inhibits the body activity reaction caused by dilated cervix.Conclusion Response surface method can qualitatively and quantitatively analyze the pharmacodynamic interaction of es-ketamine and propofol.Esketamine and propofol have additive effects in inhibiting the body activity reaction caused by dilated cervix.
