Traditional Chinese Medicine has a long history and plays a decisive role in the fields of modern medicine and pharmacy.It is an important part of our country's traditional medicine.With the progress of the times,people are paying more and more attention to the innovation and development of traditional Chinese medicine.However,the current traditional Chinese medicine talents trained by major universities cannot meet the needs and requirements of society.This is closely related to the current talent training model of universities.Local high-level universities have unique advantages and potential in cultivating inno-vative talents in traditional Chinese medicine.They can incorporate traditional Chinese medicine culture with local characteristics into the teaching content and practical links of training traditional Chinese medicine talents,and build innovative traditional Chi-nese medicine talents integrating science and education.The training model is more conducive to cultivating top innovative talents that meet the needs of society and and the development of traditional Chinese medicine.This article analyzes and discusses how local high-level universities can develop innovative talent training models that suit the needs of traditional Chinese medicine by combining local characteristics and disciplinary advantages,so as to provide useful reference and inspiration for local high-level u-niversities in cultivating talents in traditional Chinese medicine.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of acute stent implantation during endovascular treatment for patients with emergent large vessel occlusion due to intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis.Methods:A retrospective analysis was carried out on 46 patients with emergent large vessel occlusion due to intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis who received endovascular treatment at the Strategic Support Force Medical Center from January 2015 to August 2022. Twenty-seven patients underwent balloon angioplasty alone and 19 patients underwent acute stent implantation. The baseline characteristics, modified thrombolysis in cerebral infarction (mTICI) score of the responsible vessels, modified Rankin scale (mRS) score 90 days after operation, incidence of symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage and mortality of the two groups were evaluated.Results:The proportion of effective recanalization of the offending vessels (mTICI≥2b) in the acute stenting group was slightly higher than that in the balloon angioplasty group (16/19 vs. 81.5%), but the difference was not statistically significant ( P>0.05). Besides, there was no significant difference in the median of mRS between the acute stenting group [3.0(0, 4.0)] and the balloon angioplasty group [4.0(1.0, 5.0)] 90 days after operation ( P>0.05). In terms of safety, the incidence of symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage and mortality were comparable between the two groups ( P>0.05). Conclusions:The effect of acute stent implantation during endovascular treatment for patients with emergent large vessel occlusion due to intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis is not inferior to that of balloon angioplasty, and it does not increase the risk of intracranial bleeding complications.

Objective To explore the application value of multidetector computed tomography(MDCT),computed tomography cholangiography(CTC)and computed tomography angiography(CTA)reconstruction technology in the diagnosis and classification and the evaluation of the efficacy of biliary drainage in advanced hilar cholangiocarcinoma(HCCA).Methods A total of 44 patients of inoperable advanced HCCA were collected.Conventional CT plain scan and enhanced multi-phase scan were performed before treat-ment.Minimum intensity projection(MinIP)combined with curve planar reformation(CPR)was used to perform CTC.CTA of the portal vein,hepatic artery and hepatic vein were performed by maximum intensity projection(MIP),volume rendering(VR)or CPR,respectively.CT was reexamined after biliary drainage treatment.The study included the comparison between reconstruction technology of CTC and CTA and conventional CT scanning technology,CTC in the classification and diagnosis of HCCA,CTA in the evaluation of vascular invasion,and the evaluation of the effect of jaundice drainage by biliary imaging before and after biliary drain-age treatment.Results All HCCA cases obtained clear location diagnosis,including 39 cases of Bismuth-Corlette type Ⅳ and 5 cases of type Ⅲ.There were 40 cases of hepatic vascular involvement,including 15 cases of bilateral portal vein invasion by tumor,12 cases of portal vein constriction,8 cases of portal vein tumor thrombosis,4 cases of bilateral hepatic arteries involvement,and 1 case of hepatic vein involvement.CTC and CTA could better display a full view of the bile duct and blood vessel than conventional CT scanning ima-ges,and provided more accurate analysis of tumor classification and degree of vascular invasion.Before treatment,CT showed severe dila-tion of bile duct in 21 cases and moderate dilation in 20 cases,severe dilation of the intrahepatic bile duct in the left lobe but mild dilation of the intrahepatic bile duct in the right lobe in 3 cases.After drainage treatment,the contraction rate of intrahepatic bile duct dilation was＜25％in 4 cases,25％to 49％in 13 cases,50％to 74％in 18 cases,and ≥75％in 9 cases.The bile duct contraction rate was positively correlated with the decrease in total bilirubin(TBIL).Conclusion MDCT,CTC and CT A reconstruction technology can well complete the diagnosis of advanced HCCA,Bismuth-Corlette typing,and vascular evaluation.Observing the contraction rate of the intrahepatic bile duct after biliary drainage treatment can evaluate the efficacy of jaundice drainage.

Objective To evaluates the impact of early application of neuromuscular electrical stimulation(NMES)on muscle strength,clinical outcomes,and long-term quality of life improvements in patients with severe acute pancreatitis(SAP)complicated with acute respiratory distress syndrome(ARDS).Methods A total of 75 patients diagnosed with SAP and ARDS admitted in Department of Critical Care Medicine of our hospital from September 2022 to August 2023 were recruited and then randomly divided into NMES group(n=37)and control group(n=38).After 16 patients were excluded,including 8 died during treatment,3 discharged and 5 received palliative care,there were finally 29 patients in the NMES group and 30 in the control group.Within 48 h after ICU admission,the NMES group received NMES 1 h per day,for 7 d in addition to standard rehabilitation intervention.While,the control group were given conventional interventions for rehabilitation.Assessments at baseline and post-treatment included the incidence of ICU-acquired weakness(ICU-AW),Medical Research Council(MRC)score,duration of mechanical ventilation,lengths of ICU and total hospital stays,and activity,thickness and thickening fraction of the diaphragm.Mortality rates and Barthel index(BI)for self-care ability in 1,3 and 6 months after discharge were recorded for follow-up assessments.Results The NMES group had significantly lower incidence of ICU-AW(P＜0.05),higher upper and lower limb MRC scores and overall MRC score at ICU discharge(P＜0.05),shorter durations of mechanical ventilation,ICU stay,and total hospital stay when compared with the control group(P＜0.05).There was no statistical difference in the BI at 1 month post-discharge between the 2 groups,but the indexes at 3 and 6 months were notably higher in the NMES group than the control group(P＜0.05).No obvious differences were observed between the 2 groups in terms of diaphragm activity,thickness,or thickening scores at enrollment,ICU discharge,or hospital discharge,nor in mortality rates at 1,3,and 6 months after discharge.Conclusion Combined NMES and early rehabilitation therapy can improve muscle strength and reduce length of hospital stay in SAP patients complicated with ARDS,and may enhance long-term quality of life.However,it does not significantly affect diaphragm function or mortality rates.

Hypertension heightens the risk of cardiovascular and renal complications in individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Optimal blood pressure (BP) management is crucial for preventing these complications. This review consolidates evidence from clinical trials and major BP management guidelines to shed light on key aspects of hypertension management in diabetes. It addresses BP thresholds to initiate antihypertensive treatment, optimal BP control targets, recommended first-line antihypertensive edications, and BP monitoring plan for the prevention of chronic complications in type 2 diabetes.

Objective To systematically evaluate the adult intraoperatively acquired pressure injury risk prediction model.Methods Related study on IAPI risk prediction model in Chinese and English databases such as CBM,CNKI,PubMed and Web of Science were searched.The language is limited to Chinese and English,and the search time is until November 4,2022.Two researchers independently screened the literature and extracted the data,and applied the bias risk assessment tool of prediction model research to analyze the bias risk and applicability of the included literature.Results 13 articles were included,including 17 models(operation time,age,diabetes,BMI and serum albumin are the most commonly used predictors).Among the 17 models,the area under the curve of 14 models was 0.616 to 0.984,and the other study did not report the AUC results.Among the 13 studies,10 had good applicability,while the remaining 3 had unclear applicability.13 studies have a high risk of bias,mainly because the included studies are retrospective studies,the predictive factors are screened based on univariate analysis,and the predictive outcomes are not defined by guidelines or standardization.Conclusions The existing IAPI risk prediction model for adults has good applicability,but the risk of bias is high,and the construction is not perfect.It is necessary to pay attention to the effectiveness of different risk assessment methods in the later construction,so as to get a better and more accurate risk prediction model and provide some reference and basis for formulating relevant prevention strategies.

Objective:To observe the expression changes of nuclear factor erythroid 2 related factor 2 (Nrf2) and glutathione peroxidase (GPX4) in human pulmonary microvascular endothelial cells (HPMEC) under different experimental conditions, and to explore the role of Nrf2 in inhibiting ferroptosis in the process of alleviating hyperoxic lung injury(HLI).Methods:Hyperoxic model was established by hyperoxia exposure.HPMEC were treated with blank control (control group), oxygen exposure at the concentration of 950 mL/L (hyperoxia group), oxygen exposure at the concentration of 950 mL/L+ 10 μmol/L Ferrostatin (ferroptosis inhibitor group) and oxygen exposure at the concentration of 950 mL/L + 10 μmol/L ML385 (Nrf2 inhibitor group). Cell viability at 24 h and 48 h was tested by the Cell Counting Kit-8 assay, and reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels were detected by a commercial ROS kit.The mRNA and protein levels of Nrf2 and GPX4 were detected by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction and Western blot, respectively.Differences were analyzed using the Student′s t-test for a two-group comparison or one-way ANOVA test among groups. Results:(1)Compared with the control group, significantly decreased viability and increased ROS levels were detected in hyperoxia group.Meanwhile, the mRNA (24 h: 0.750±0.010 vs.1.010±0.160, 48 h: 0.690±0.050 vs.1.000±0.070) and protein levels of GPX4 (24 h: 0.160±0.010 vs.0.290±0.010, 48 h: 0.190±0.010 vs.0.250±0.010) at 24 h and 48 h were significantly downregulated, while the mRNA (24 h: 1.740±0.050 vs.1.000±0.050, 48 h: 2.130±0.020 vs.1.000±0.030) and protein levels of Nrf2 (24 h: 0.840±0.010 vs.0.480±0.010, 48 h: 0.840±0.010 vs.0.550±0.030) at 24 h and 48 h were significantly upregulated in hyperoxia group than those of control group (all P<0.05). (2)Compared with the hyperoxia group, significantly increased viability and decreased ROS levels were detected in ferroptosis inhibitor group.Meanwhile, the mRNA (24 h: 1.520±0.110, 48 h: 1.880±0.050) and protein levels of GPX4 (24 h: 0.290±0.010, 48 h: 0.250±0.004) at 24 h and 48 h were significantly upregulated, while the mRNA (24 h: 0.780±0.040, 48 h: 0.760±0.030) and protein levels of Nrf2 (24 h: 0.480±0.010, 48 h: 0.540±0.020) at 24 h and 48 h were significantly downregulated in ferroptosis inhibitor group than those of hyperoxia group (all P<0.05). (3)Compared with the hyperoxia group, significantly decreased viability and increased ROS levels were detected in Nrf2 inhibitor group.Meanwhile, the mRNA (24 h: 0.600±0.030, 48 h: 0.590±0.003) and protein levels of GPX4 (24 h: 0.150±0.001, 48 h: 0.180±0.001) at 24 h and 48 h were significantly downregulated, while the mRNA level of Nrf2 was significantly upregulated at 24 h (3.360±0.130), but downregulated at 48 h (1.430±0.130) (all P<0.05). No significant difference was detected in the protein level of Nrf2 at 24 h and 48 h between hyperoxia group and Nrf2 inhibitor group ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Ferroptosis is involved in the development of HLI, and Nrf2 is able to alleviate hyperoxic lung injury by inhibiting ferroptosis.Therefore, inhibition of ferroptosis by Nrf2 may provide a new therapeutic target for HLI.

Objective To develop a pharmacogenomics study of ticagrelor in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS), identify the genetic factors that can predict individual differences in antiplatelet aggregation effects of ticagrelor, and provide a reference for the development of individualized regimens for ticagrelor. Methods 75 ACS patients of Chinese Han in a hospital in Fujian province in 2018 who met the entry criteria were recruited. The patient was given the tests for platelet function test, platelet aggregation rate and DNA detection. The whole exon sequencing method (WES) was used to detect the single nucleotide polymorphisms of SLO1B1, UGT2B7, P2Y₁₂, PEAR1, ITGA2B and ITGB3. At the same time, the general clinical data of the patients were collected and recorded. The correlation between antiplatelet aggregation effects of ticagrelor and pharmacogenetic polymorphism was analyzed by one-way analysis of variance, multiple linear regression analysis and binary logistic regression analysis. Results One-way analysis of variance showed that SLCO1B1 rs2306283 mutant allele G could affect the antiplatelet aggregation effect of ticagrelor, the average platelet aggregation rate of patients carrying at least one allele G (AG+GG type) was significantly lower than that of wild homozygotes AA patients (8.07%±6.17% vs 13.88%±6.39%, P≤0.05). However, multivariate regression analysis after adjusting for confounding factors showed that SLCO1B1 rs2306283 mutant allele G was not an independent variable affecting the antiplatelet effects of ticagrelor (P>0.05). Conclusion Single nucleotide polymorphisms of genes related to ticagrelor transport receptors, targets, and platelet membrane receptors (including SLO1B1, UGT2B7, P2Y₁₂, PEAR1, ITGA2B, ITGB3) in ACS patients of Han Chinese in Fujian province will not significantly affect the antiplatelet aggregation effect of ticagrelor, which provides a new treatment option for patients with genetic defects who are not suitable for clopidogrel.

ObjectiveTo investigate the distribution and trend of rehabilitation personnel of China Disabled Persons' Federation (CDPF) system and the people with disabilities (PWDs) using geographical gravity model. MethodsBased on ArcGIS and statistical data, the distribution of geographical center of gravity of the rehabilitation personnel of the CDPF system from 2011 to 2021 was analyzed. According to the economic development, the areas were divided into three regions, and the eastern region included eleven provincial units, the central region includes eight provincial units, and the western region included twelve provincial units. ResultsCompared with 2011, rehabilitation staffs per thousand PWDs increased at 107.5% in 2021, 81.1%, 114.2% and 174.1% for the eastern, central, and western regions, respectively; professional staffs increased at 190.5%, 148.8%, 284.6% and 280.6% for the eastern, central, and western regions, respectively; managerial staff increased at 80.0%, 46.8%, 554.3% and 128.1% for the eastern, central, and western regions, respectively. Compared with 2011, the geographical center of gravity of the rehabilitation personnel moved about 330.9 km in 2021, while the geographical center of gravity of the PWDs moved about 169.64 km. ConclusionThe rehabilitation personnel in the CDPF system is the most in the eastern region and least in the western region. The tracks of the geographical center of gravity of the three kind of rehabilitation personnel in the CDPF system are relatively consistent. The rehabilitation personnel in the eastern region are more concentrated than those in the western region, and the density of the PWDs is more westward than that of the rehabilitation personnel, and coordination is not a perfect match yet. It is necessary to strengthen the rehabilitation personnel allocation in the western region, to balance distribution of human resources for rehabilitation of PWDs among regions.

Sex difference has shown in the arthritis diseases in human population and animal models. We investigate how the sex and symmetry vary among mouse models with different genomic backgrounds. Disease data of sex and limbs accumulated in the past more than two decades from four unique populations of murine arthritis models were analyzed. They are (1) interleukin-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1ra) deficient mice under Balb/c background (Balb/c KO); (2) Mice with collagen II induced arthritis under DBA/1 background; (3) Mice with collagen II induced arthritis under C57BL/6 (B6) background and (4) A F2 generation population created by Balb/c KO X DBA/1 KO.Our data shows that there is a great variation in sexual dimorphism for arthritis incidence and severity of arthritis in mice harboring specific genetic modifications. For a F2 population, the incidence of arthritis was 57.1% in female mice and 75.6% in male mice. There was a difference in severity related to sex in two populations: B6.DR1/ B6.DR4 (P < 0.001) and F2 (P = 0.023) There was no difference Balb/c parental strain or in collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) in DBA/1 mice. Among these populations, the right hindlimbs are significantly higher than the scores for the left hindlimbs in males (P < 0.05). However, when examining disease expression using the collagen induced arthritis model with DBA/1 mice, sex-dimorphism did not reach statistical significance, while left hindlimbs showed a tendency toward greater disease expression over the right. Sexual dimorphism in disease expression in mouse models is strain and genomic background dependent. It sets an alarm that potential variation in sexual dimorphism among different racial and ethnic groups in human populations may exist. It is important to not only include both sexes and but also pay attention to possible variations caused by disease expression and response to treatment in all the studies of arthritis in animal models and human populations.
