Objective:To explore the feasibility of constructing an objective tinnitus subtype model based on peripheral blood differentially expressed genes (DEGs) using a combination of Weighted Gene Co-expression Network Analysis (WGCNA) and Random Forest algorithm (RF).Methods:From October 2019 to June 2020, peripheral blood DEGs were obtained from 37 patients (from the Third Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University)with chronic subjective high-frequency tinnitus (21 unbothersome type, 16 bothersome type) and 20 healthy volunteers through high-throughput sequencing. WGCNA was used to construct gene modules with different expression patterns and analyze their relationships with tinnitus characteristics. Subsequently, RF was employed to build subtype models, which were evaluated by the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC), accuracy, and F1-score.Results:A total of 12 351 intergroup DEGs were divided into 9 gene modules. Among them, MEblue, MEgreen, and MEbrown showed significant negative correlations with the healthy volunteer group, while MEpink showed a significant positive correlation with the tinnitus distress group. The "Tinnitus vs. Normal" and "Compensatory vs. Decompensatory" subtype models, based on MEblue and MEpink respectively, both had AUCs greater than 0.80, accuracies above 90%, and F1-scores above 0.90, indicating good performance.Conclusions:Peripheral blood DEGs are potential biological indicators for objective classification of subjective tinnitus. The combined application of WGCNA and the Random Forest algorithm should be a viable approach to constructing an objective tinnitus subtype model. However, further exploration and refinement are needed to validate the model′s generalizability, cross-dataset performance, and algorithm optimization.

Objective:This study aimed to evaluate the global research landscape, identify trends, and determine hotspots concerning hepatoma recurrence post-liver transplantation.Methods:We conducted a bibliometric analysis usinga systematic search was conducted in the Web of Science Core Collection database from Jan. 1992 to Oct. 2023 to identify relevant articles on hepatoma recurrence after liver transplantation. Articles were selected based on inclusion and exclusion criteria and analyzed for publication trends by country/region, journal, author, institution, citation, and keyword. Visualization tools such as Citespace, VOSviewer, and Bibliometric.com were utilized for statistical analysis, identification of emerging trends, and clustering of keyword co-occurrence.Results:Out of 4,936 articles retrieved, 1,189 were included in the final analysis. There was a notable increase in publications on hepatoma recurrence following liver transplantation from 1992 to 2021, peaking in 2021 both globally (n=103) and nationally (n=32). China has the largest number of publications in this field (n=308), maintaining significant collaboration with the United States, South Korea, Japan, Canada. 'Liver Transplantation’ journal had the highest number of publications (n=113). Zhejiang University was the leading institution (n=74), with Academician Zheng Shusen being the most prolific scholar (n=76 publications). Citation emergence detection found that Italian scholar Mazzaferro's Predicting survival after liver transplantation in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma beyond the Milan criteria: a retrospective, exploratory analysis published on The Lancet Oncology in 2009 had the highest burst strength (36.98). Five bursting keywords were identified: alpha fetoprotein, model, validation, sorafenib, and risk. Cluster analysis of keyword co-occurrence revealed five primary research themes: the medication for hepatocellular carcinoma recurrence after liver transplantation, recipient selection criteria, prognostic factors, development and validation of recurrence prediction model, and local treatments for hepatocellular carcinoma.Conclusions:The study underscores rapid advancements in the research on hepatocellular carcinoma recurrence post-liver transplantation over the past three decades, with significant contributions from Chinese scholars, particularly from Zhejiang University and Academician Zheng Shusen. The evolving research hotspots have shifted from transplantation experiences and recipient selection criteria to early post-transplant recurrence risk prediction and therapeutic strategy development.

Objective To investigate the characteristics of adverse drug reactions(ADRs)induced by tislelizumab and to provide reference for clinic drug safety.Methods The ADR of tislelizumab in Beijing Friendship Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical Univeristy from July 2021 to December 2022 were retrospectively analyzed.The case reports of ADR induced by tislelizumab from January 2019 to December 2022 in PubMed,ScienceDirect,Embase,Wanfang,VIP databases were searched.Age,sex,original diseases,adverse reaction time,clinical manifestation,treatment measures and clinical outcome were analyzed.Results A total of 30 patients including 8 cases in hospital and 22 cases in literature were collected.Among these patients,male accounted for 83.33%(25/30),and the highest proportion was from patients over 60 years old(21 patients,70.00%).Most ADRs occurred in 1-2 dose cycles of medication,mainly including skin toxicity in 8 patients,digestive disease in 6 patients and kidney injury in 4 patients.After the symptomatic treatment,29 patients improved and 1 patient died.Conclusion During the medication with tislelizumab,ADRs of skin,gastrointestinal tract and renal should be vigilant,and the changes of relevant indicators should be closely monitored.

Objective To investigate the medical expense control model of rational drug use based on the China healthcare security diagnosis related groups(CHS-DRG)simulation in Beijing in 2021.Methods By analyzing the simulated operation data from January to March 2021 before the intervention,the groups with rational drug management improving potential among the top three surgical disease groups in terms of the number of cases enrolled in the surgical department were selected.Then,the targeted intervention and guidance were implemented to the selected disease groups.Finally,the analysis was obtained by comparing the changes in several key indicators such as the average drug cost,average antibacterial drug cost,average surplus and average length of stay during June to August 2021.Moreover,the differences in antimicrobial drug use intensity and hospital infection reporting of the department as a whole where the problematic groups were located were also investigated.Results Before the intervention,the otolaryngology related groups(including DD29 and DE19),urology surgery related groups(including LD19 and LJ13)could be improved in antibacterial drug use during the perioperative period.Meanwhile,the chest surgery related group(including EB19)had space to be improved in auxiliary medication.After the intervention,the five groups'average drug cost and average antibacterial drug cost in the otolaryngology and urology surgery departments are all decreased.The antibiotics use intensity is also declined in otolaryngology and urology surgery departments.The average surplus of otolaryngology and urology surgery related groups are increased,with the DE19 disease group in ENT also achieving a profit turnaround.As for the indicators related to the quality of care,there were no significant differences in the groups'average length of stay and nosocomial infection reporting of these departments.Conclusion The hospital operation based on CHS-DRG payment is both an opportunity and a challenge.The all-inclusive payment model has prompted hospitals to take the initiative in controlling costs,and the exploration of a rational medication management and cost-control model related to disease groups has begun to show results in terms of cost reductions without affecting the quality of medical care.The research can also provide a solid foundation for the CHS-DRG actual payment and sustainable development of medical insurance fund.
