OBJECTIVE To evaluate the influence of pharmaceutical quality control on the efficiency and outcomes of standardized medication therapy management （MTM） services for patients with coronary heart disease by using Economic， Clinical and Humanistic Outcomes （ECHO） model. METHODS This study collected case data of coronary heart disease patients who received MTM services during January-March 2023 （pre-quality control implementation group， n＝96） and June-August 2023 （post-quality control implementation group， n＝164）. Using propensity score matching analysis， 80 patients were selected from each group. The study subsequently compared the economic， clinical， and humanistic outcome indicators of pharmaceutical services between the two matched groups. RESULTS There were no statistically significant differences in baseline data between the two groups after matching （P＞0.05）. Compared with pre-quality control implementation group， the daily treatment cost （16.26 yuan vs. 24.40 yuan， P＜0.001）， cost-effectiveness ratio [23.12 yuan/quality-adjusted life year （QALY） vs. 32.32 yuan/QALY， P＜0.001]， and the incidence of general adverse drug reactions （2.50% vs. 10.00%， P＝0.049） of post-quality control implementation group were decreased significantly； the utility value of the EuroQol Five-Dimensional Questionnaire （0.74± 0.06 vs. 0.71±0.07， P＝0.003）， the reduction in the number of medication related problems （1.0 vs. 0.5， P＜0.001）， the medication adherence score （[ 6.32±0.48） points vs. （6.10±0.37） points， P＝0.001]， and the satisfaction score （[ 92.56±1.52） points vs. （91.95±1.56） points， P＝0.013] all showed significant improvements. Neither group experienced serious adverse drug reactions. There was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of new adverse reactions between the two groups （1.25% vs. 3.75%， P＝0.310）. CONCLUSIONS Pharmaceutical quality control can improve the quality of pharmaceutical care， and the ECHO model can quantitatively evaluate the effect of MTM services， making pharmaceutical care better priced and more adaptable to social needs， thus being worthy of promotion.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the feasibility and early effectiveness of computer-simulated osteotomy based on the health-side combined with guide plate technique in the treatment of cubitus varus deformity in adolescents. METHODS: The clinical data of 23 patients with cubitus varus deformity who met the selection criteria between June 2019 and February 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. There were 17 males and 6 females, ranging in age from 4 to 16 years with an average of 8.5 years. The time from injury to operation was 1-4 years. The angle of distal humerus rotation was defined by humeral head posterior inclination angle using low radiation dose CT to scan the patient's upper extremity data at one time, and the preoperative rotation of the distal humerus on the affected side was (33.82±4.39)°. The CT plain scan data were imported into 9yuan3D digital orthopaedic system (V3.34 software) to reconstruct three-dimensional images of both upper extremities. The simulated operation was performed with the healthy upper extremity as the reference, the best osteotomy scheme was planned, overlapped and compared, and the osteotomy guide plate was prepared. The patients were followed up regularly after operation, and the formation of callus in the osteotomy area was observed by X-ray examination. Before and after operation, the carrying angle of both upper extremities (the angle of cubitus valgus was positive, and the angle of cubitus varus was negative) and anteversion angle were measured on X-ray and CT images. At the same time, the flexion and extension range of motion of elbow joint and the external rotation range of motion of upper extremity were measured, and Mayo score was used to evaluate the function of elbow joint. RESULTS: The operation time ranged from 34 to 46 minutes, with an average of 39 minutes. All patients were followed up 5-26 months, with a mean of 14.9 months. All the incisions healed by first intention after the operation; 2 patients had nail path irritation symptoms after Kirschner wire fixation, which improved after dressing change; no complication such as breakage and loosening of internal fixators occurred after regular X-ray review. Continuous callus formed at the osteotomy end at 4 weeks after operation, and the osteotomy end healed at 8-12 weeks after operation. At last follow-up, the carrying angle, anteversion angle, external rotation range of motion, and extension and flexion range of motion of the elbow joint of the affected side significantly improved when compared with preoperative ones ( P<0.05). Except for the extension range of motion of the healthy elbow joint ( P<0.05), there was no significant difference in other indicators between the two sides ( P>0.05). At last follow-up, the Mayo elbow score was 85-100, with an average of 99.3; 22 cases were excellent, 1 case was good, and the excellent and good rate was 100%. CONCLUSION Computer-simulated osteotomy based on health-side combined with guide plate technique for treating cubitus varus deformity in adolescents can achieve precise osteotomy, which has the advantages of short operation time and easy operation, and the short-term effectiveness is satisfactory.

Objective To investigate the effect and mechanism of miR-141-3p on pulmonary fibrosis in rats with acute respiratory distress syndrome(ARDS).Methods Rats were divided into the control group,the model group,the agomir negative control group and the miR-141-3p agomir group according to random number table,with 10 rats in each group.In addition to the control group,the ARDS rat model was established by lipopolysaccharide(LPS)infusion.Rat alveolar typeⅡepithelial cells RLE-6TN cells were divided into the NC group,the LPS group,the miR-NC group,the miR-141-3p mimics group,the miR-141-3p mimics+pcDNA group and the miR-141-3p mimics+NRF2 and Kelch-like ring associated protein 1(Keap1)group.LPS cell model was established in all groups except the NC group.The mRNA expression levels of miR-141-3p and Keap1 in lung tissue and cells were detected by qPCR.Western blot assay was used to analyze lung tissue and cell epithelial cadherin(E-cadherin),neural cadherin(N-cadherin),microtubule associated protein light chain 3B(LC3B),autophagy associated gene Beclin-1,α-smooth muscle actin(α-SMA),type I collagen(Col-Ⅰ),Keap1 and nuclear factors E2 related factor 2(NRF2)and heme oxygenase 1(HO-1).HE staining and Masson staining were used to observe pathological changes of lung tissue and to estimate the area of lung tissue injury and pulmonary fibrosis.Hydroxyproline(Hyp)in lung tissue was detected by the kit.Levels of inflammatory factor interleukin-1β,tumor necrosis factor(TNF-α)and oxidative stress index malondialdehyde(MDA)and superoxide dismutase(SOD)were detected by ELISA.Dual luciferase reporting experiment was used to verify the targeting relationship between miR-141-3p and Keap1.Results The expression of miR-141-3p was down-regulated and the expression of Keap1 was up-regulated in lung tissue and cells(P＜0.05).Overexpression of miR-141-3p can reduce the degree of pathological damage and fibrosis of lung tissue in rats,Hyp content,and up-regulate expression levels of SOD,E-cadherin,LC3B,Beclin-1,NRF2 and HO-1 in lung tissue and cells,and down-regulate the expression levels of IL-1β,TNF-α,MDA,N-cadherin,α-SMA,Col-I and Keap1(P＜0.05).Overexpression of Keap1 was able to reverse the improvement effect of overexpression of miR-141-3p on alveolar epithelial cell damage in ARDS rats(P＜0.05).Double Luciferase reporter gene experiment confirmed that miR-141-3p and Keap1 may have a targeted regulatory relationship.Conclusion Overexpression of miR-141-3p may activate the Keap1-NRF2/ARE signaling pathway,activate autophagy,inhibit inflammatory response,oxidative stress,and EMT progression,and improve pulmonary fibrosis in ARDS rats.

Objective:To investigate the alterations of brain functional network related to disease progression in patients with temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) and the potential neural mechanism of executive dysfunction.Methods:Nineteen temporal lobe epilepsy patients with a disease course of less than or equal to 5 years (TLE-SD group) and 24 temporal lobe epilepsy patients with a disease course of more than 5 years (TLE-LD group) were recruited from the Epilepsy Clinic of the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangxi Medical University from December 2019 to December 2021. At the same time, 21 healthy control individuals (healthy control group) were recruited from the society and matched with gender, age, and education level. All subjects were evaluated demographic and clinical data, and performed resting state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rs-fMRI) and attention network test (ANT). The topological properties of functional brain network of 3 groups of subjects were calculated using graph theory, and then the hubs were determined. Then the inter-group comparison of hubs properties was carried out, and the correlation analysis with executive control function was performed.Results:The distribution pattern of hub nodes in TLE-SD patients was changed. Compared with the TLE-LD and healthy control groups, the TLE-SD group significantly increased the nodal degree values in brain regions such as the ventrolateral area of the left middle frontal gyrus, the left anterior central gyrus (upper limb area), the cephalic and caudal areas of the left parietal lobule, as well as the inner parietal lobe area, the caudal side of the right parietal lobule, and the right lateral occipital cortex. The nodal values of the brain areas such as the lateral and parietal inner area, the caudal side of the right upper upper lobule, and the right lateral occipital cortex were significantly increased. TLE-SD patients had a significant increase in the middle of the right upper frontal gyrus and the head of the left upper upper lobule. The node efficiency was significantly lower than that of TLE-LD patients, and the node efficiency in the middle of the right upper frontal gyrus was significantly lower than that of the healthy control group. The node network attributes of the left upper lobe were positively correlated with the execution control efficiency, and negatively correlated with the orientation efficiency. No significant difference was detected between TLE-LD patients and healthy controls.Conclusions:In TLE patients, the hubs in the middle of the right superior frontal gyrus were first damaged, and new hubs appeared in the dorsal attention network, the left anterior central gyrus and the right occipital lobe and were overloaded. With the progression of the disease, hubs tended to be redistributed to normality. The left superior parietal lobule may play an important role in the impairment of executive control function in TLE patients.

Objective To compare the preparation efficiency of mouse pox and mouse hepatitis antibodies between two substrains of BALB/c and Big-BALB/c (B-BALB/c) mice, and to provide a theoretical basis and reference for the selection of laboratory animals in the preparation of monoclonal antibodies inducedin vivo through hybridoma.Methods Individuals weighing more than 5% of the weight of normal animals at 4 weeks of age (the criterion for late selection is more than 10%) were selected from a population of conventionally bred BALB/c mice and bred individually, and a subline of B-BALB/c mice was prepared after 10 generations of selection. A total of 40 BALB/c mice and 40 B-BALB/c mice aged 10 to 11 weeks, half male and half female, were selected and inoculated with the mousepox monoclonal antibody hybridoma cell line G23 or the murine hepatitis monoclonal antibody hybridoma cell line Y15 pre-treated with liquid paraffin, respectively. Mice ascites containing monoclonal antibodies were obtained by in vivo induction. The antibody titer was tested by indirect ELISA. The mice were grouped based on the sub-strains, gender and inoculation type of hybridoma to analyze the ascites production, antibody titer and antibody production, and to evaluate the antibody preparation efficiency of the two BALB/c mouse sub-strains.ResultsAfter 10 generations of breeding, the body weight of 10-week-old male and female B-BALB/c mice increased by 22.3% and 12.8%, respectively, compared with BALB/c mice of the same age. Compared with BALB/c mice, B-BALB/c mice had better tolerance and adaptation to secondary ascites collection. Compared with BALB/c mice, the ascites production and antibody titer during the preparation of antibodies in B-BALB/c mice were significantly increased, especially in the hybridoma cell line G23 vaccination group (both P＜0.000 1) . After inoculation with the hybridoma cell lines G23 or Y15, the average antibody production of B-BALB/c mice (14.99×10⁴ U and 33.22×10⁴ U) was higher than that of BALB/c mice (5.33×10⁴ U and 19.31×10⁴ U) (both P＜0.01). After inoculation with hybridoma cell line G23, the average antibody production per unit body weight of B-BALB/c mice (0.55×10⁴ U/g) was higher than that of BALB/c mice (0.23×10⁴ U/g) (P＜0.000 1). And the antibody production per unit body weight of female B-BALB/c or BALB/c mice was higher than that of male B-BALB/c or BALB/c mice (bothP＜0.01).Conclusion B-BALB/c mice can be used as an alternative to BALB/c mice in the in vivo induction of monoclonal antibody preparation, which can achieve the purpose of reducing the number of experimental animals used, lowering the labor cost, and improving the efficiency of antibody preparation.

Objective:To establish the patient derived xenograft (PDX) model of liver malignant tumor, analyze the related factors affecting the carcinogenesis of PDX model, and analyze the differences of biological characteristics between the primary tumor and PDX model.Methods:Fresh liver malignant tumor tissue samples were collected from the patients who received the surgery from the Tianjin First Central Hospital and the samples were inoculated subcutaneously into BALB/c-nu mice. The correlations between clinicopathological information and tumor formation rate were analyzed, and the pathological morphology and specific protein expression of PDX model and primary tumor were compared.Results:Thirty-three PDX models were successfully established from 63 cases of liver malignant tumors. The overall tumor formation rate was 52.4% (33/63), including 46.3% (25/54) of primary liver cancer and 88.9% (8/9) of liver metastasis. The main factors affecting the tumor formation rate were tumor pathological type, distant metastasis and TNM stage (all P<0.05). The pathological morphology and specific protein expression of PDX model and primary tumor were similar. Conclusion:The PDX model of liver malignant tumor was successfully constructed, and the tumor formation rate was high, and can maintain the biological characteristics of the primary tumor.

Objective: To research the auditory nerve transduction effects under multi-wavelength pulsed laser stimulations within a safe and acceptable signal range. Methods: The real-time detection of intracellular calcium concentration was adopted by specific fluorescent indicator staining based on calcium imager. The spiral ganglion cells of mice were cultured in vitro. After fluorescent indicating, morphologic observation under optical microscope, Fura-2 calcium ion fluorescence excitation, intact morphology cells selection, fixing the optical fiber, the spiral ganglion cells were irradiated by different wavelength laser, including visible light (450 nm) and near infrared light (808 nm,1 065 nm). The intracellular calcium concentration was monitored by calcium ion imaging. Results: When 450 nm laser stimulated spiral ganglion cells, the intracellular calcium concentration was strongly increased, however, for other wavelength laser stimulation, there was no obvious relative response. And the sensitivity expression of the nerve cells under laser was related with the location of laser fiber. Cells closer to the fiber produced more obvious changes in calcium ion concentration, while for cells farther away from the fiber, the change amplitudes were weaker although the number of changes in calcium ion concentration was consistent. Conclusion The spiral ganglion cells of mice can induce a signal transduction response under the action of laser, and the response has laser wavelength selectivity.
