Background::Transplant renal artery stenosis (TRAS) is a vascular complication after kidney transplantation associated with poor outcomes. This study aimed to analyze the efficacy and safety of low-dose aspirin for preventing TRAS.Methods::After kidney transplantation, patients were enrolled from January 2018 to December 2020 in Henan Provincial People’s Hospital. A total of 351 enrolled recipients were randomized to an aspirin group with low-dose intake of aspirin in addition to standard treatment ( n = 178), or a control group with only standard treatment ( n = 173). The patients was initially diagnosed as TRAS (id-TRAS) by Doppler ultrasound, and confirmed cases were diagnosed by DSA (c-TRAS). Results::In the aspirin and control groups, 15.7% (28/178) and 22.0% (38/173) of the recipients developed id-TRAS, respectively, with no statistical difference. However, for c-TRAS, the difference of incidence and cumulative incidence was statistically significant. The incidence of c-TRAS was lower in the aspirin group compared with the control group (2.8% [5/178] vs. 11.6% [20/173], P = 0.001). Kaplan–Meier estimates and Cox regression model identified the cumulative incidence and hazard ratio (HR) of TRAS over time in two groups, showing that recipients treated with aspirin had a significantly lower risk of c-TRAS than those who were not treated (log-rank P = 0.001, HR = 0.23, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.09–0.62). The levels of platelet aggregation rate ( P < 0.001), cholesterol ( P = 0.028), and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol ( P = 0.003) in the aspirin group were decreased compared with the control group in the third-month post-transplantation. For the incidence of adverse events, there was no statistical difference. Conclusion::Clinical application of low-dose aspirin after renal transplant could prevent the development of TRAS with no significant increase in adverse effects.Trial Registration::Clinicaltrials.gov, NCT04260828.

Objective To investigate the effect of flipped classroom based on WeChat and mi-crolecture in medical chemistry experiment course in the context of "internet". Methods The classes were randomly divided into 2 groups, experimental group (flipped classroom teaching, n=97) and the control group (traditional teaching, n=98). Comparison of the chemistry experiment test results were performed with the use of t test between the two teaching groups at the end of the semester to evaluate the experimental teaching method. All statistical processing and analyses were performed with SPSS software (version 12.0). Results The chemistry experiment test score of the experimental group was higher than that of the control group [(77.84±8.22) vs. (73.43±10.14), t=3.341, P=0.008), and the difference was statistically significant. The results of the questionnaire showed that the students in the experimental group generally consider that flipped classroom teaching is better than the traditional teaching in terms of the cultivation of comprehen-sive quality and the teaching effect. Conclusion In the context of "internet", flipped classroom teaching with WeChat microlecture can better mobilize the enthusiasm of students to learn and participate in medical chemistry experiment course, which has been welcomed by students and further suggest good application prospects.

Objective:To investigate the public attitudes towards violence incidents from the perspective of in-ternet users, by the means of collecting the hospital violence incidents on the internet. Methods:Selected 7 cases of typical hospital violence and divided those comments into three categories, namely,support the medical side,support the patient side and other. The proportions of all kinds of attitudes were analyzed. Summarize the in-centives of hospital violence and analyze the attitudes of internet users from the perspective of social psychology. Results:Internet users had different attitudes to these 7 cases of hospital violence incidents. The proportion of support the medical side was from 0 . 66% to 95 . 82%, and the proportion ofsupport the patient side was from 0. 18% to 81. 25%. This was mainly due to the in-group favoritism, stereotypes, moral judgment and emotional tendencies of internet public opinion and media-induced and other factors. In internet users' view, the low profes-sional ethical quality is considered the most important incentives, and the proportion was 43. 05%. Conclusions:The tendency of the media coverage has an important influence on the attitude of internet users. Policy makers should correctly treat with the two sides of network public opinions, the hospitals should improve the ability to re-spond to public opinion, the media should regulate coverage and publicity.
