    Objective: To analyze the effect of labetalol-based comprehensive treatment on gestational hypertension (PIH) patients in high-altitude areas. Method: A total of 84 PIH patients admitted to Qinghai Women and Children's Hospital from July 2023 to November 2024 were enrolled in this study and randomly divided into two groups, with 42 cases each. The control group received conventional antihypertensive treatment, while the experimental group was treated with labetalol-based comprehensive treatment. Both groups were treated for 14 days. The hypertension levels, pregnancy outcomes, biochemical test indicators, and clinical efficacy rates of the two groups were analyzed and compared. Result: Before treatment, both groups had high blood pressure levels. At 1 to 3 months post-treatment, blood pressure levels in both groups showed a downward trend, with the experimental group exhibiting lower diastolic/systolic blood pressure parameters compared to the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). The experimental group had fewer cases and a lower proportion of adverse pregnancy outcomes, with a statistically significant difference (P<0.05). No statistically significant difference was observed in blood biochemical indicators between the two groups before treatment (P>0.05). After treatment, the experimental group showed superior blood biochemical test results, with three indicator levels lower than those of the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). In the labetalol-based experimental group, the condition of PIH patients was effectively controlled, and the total efficacy rate was higher than that of the control group, with a statistically significant difference (P<0.05). Conclusion: Labetalol-based comprehensive treatment plays a significant role in controlling PIH symptoms, effectively reducing blood pressure, protecting vital organ functions, and improving maternal pregnancy outcomes.

    Objective: Based on the cross-lag method, the changing trends and mutual influences of fear of disease progression and sleep quality in postoperative patients with cerebral hemorrhage over time were explored. Method: A total of 360 patients with cerebral hemorrhage who underwent surgical treatment at Zhongshan People's Hospital from January 2023 to January 2024 were selected as the research subjects. The Fear of Progression Questionnaire-Short Form (FoP-Q-SF) and the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Score Index (PSQI) were used to evaluate and detect the fear of disease progression and sleep quality of patients at 24 hours after anesthesia and awakening (T1), 14 days after surgery (T2), and 1 month after surgery (T3), respectively. The Spearman method was used to analyze the correlation between fear of disease progression and sleep quality at different time points. The Mplus software was applied to construct a cross-lag analysis model to analyze the causal temporal relationship and direction of action between postoperative fear disease progression and sleep quality in patients with cerebral hemorrhage. Result: After excluding those who dropped out halfway and those with invalid data, a total of 338 patients completed the study. The FoP-Q-SF scores of 338 patients with cerebral hemorrhage at T1, T2 and T3 were (33.52±3.67), (28.24±2.96) and (25.37±2.41) respectively, and the PSQI scores were (15.36±2.14), (12.38±1.53) and (9.62±1.47) respectively. The results of the correlation analysis showed that the PSQI measured in the three times was positively correlated with the FoP-Q-SF score (P<0.05). The results of cross-hysteresis analysis showed that the FoP-Q-SF score of T1 in patients with cerebral hemorrhage could positively predict the T2PSQI score, and the T2FoP-Q-SF score could positively predict the T3PSQI score. The path coefficients were 0.242 and 0.359 respectively (P<0.05). The PSQI score of T1 can positively predict the FoP-Q-SF score of T2, and the PSQI score of T2 can positively predict the FOP-Q-SF score of T3. The path coefficients are 0.511 and 0.311 respectively (P<0.05). Conclusion: There is a cross-lagged effect between the fear of disease progression and sleep quality in patients with cerebral hemorrhage, suggesting a causal relationship between the two over multiple time spans. The relationship between the two can be utilized to formulate targeted postoperative care measures for patients, improving the prognosis quality of patients with cerebral hemorrhage.

    Objective: To explore the effects of arthroscopic-assisted Ilizarov stretch technique on joint range of motion, ankle osteoarthritis (AOS) score and inflammatory factors in patients with post-traumatic osteoarthritis of the ankle (PTOA). Method: A retrospective analysis was conducted on the diagnosis and treatment data of 67 patients with PTOA who underwent surgical treatment at Xiamen Fifth Hospital from January 2020 to December 2023. Among them, 35 cases were treated with arthroscopic-assisted Ilizarov traction technique (Group A), and 32 cases were treated with traditional open ankle arthroplasty (Group B). The general conditions of the surgery and the levels of serum inflammatory factors before and after the surgery were compared between the two groups. The patients were followed up for 6 months after the surgery. The AOS score and joint range of motion at the last follow-up were recorded, and the therapeutic effect was evaluated. Result: The operation time, intraoperative blood loss and hospital stay in group A were significantly less than those in group B, and the incidence of complications was significantly lower than that in group B. The differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). Half a month after the operation, the indicators of interleukin (IL) -6, C-reactive protein (CRP), and tumor necrosis factor (TNF) -α in group A were significantly lower than those in group B. At the last follow-up, the AOS score and joint range of motion in group A were significantly greater than those in group B, and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). The excellent and good rate of group A was significantly higher than that of group B, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). Conclusion: Compared with open fusion in the treatment of PTOA, arthroscopic-assisted Ilizarov stretch technique can quickly restore the ankle function of patients and reduce inflammatory responses.

    Objective: To investigate the influence of laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) at different timing after percutaneous transhepatic gallbladder drainage (PTGD) on surgical effect and complications in elderly patients with acute cholecystitis (AC). Method: Elderly patients with AC who received PTGD followed by LC in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Bengbu Medical University were selected from October 2022 to October 2024. According to the time from PTGD to LC, the patients were divided into early group (LC at 1 to 4 weeks after PTGD) and delayed group (LC at 4 to 8 weeks after PTGD). The propensity matching score was used to exclude the influence of baseline data confounding factors. Finally, 49 patients with comparable baseline data were identified in each group. The LC-related indexes (surgical time, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative first ambulation time, total length of hospital stay) and inflammatory indexes [white blood cell count (WBC), C-reactive protein (CRP), procalcitonin (PCT)] before PTGD and after LC were compared between the two groups, and the incidence rates of postoperative complications were counted. Result: The blood loss during LC in delayed group was less than that in early group, and the postoperative ambulation time and total length of hospital stay were shorter, with statistical differences (P<0.05). No statistical significance was found in LC time between the two groups (P>0.05). After LC, the levels of WBC, CRP and PCT in the two groups were reduced compared with those before PTGD, and the levels in delayed group were lower compared to early group, with statistical differences (P<0.05). The total incidence rate of postoperative complications was 6.12% in delayed group and that in early group was 14.29%, with no statistical difference (P>0.05). Conclusion: For elderly patients with AC, compared with early surgery (1 to 4 weeks), delayed LC (4 to 8 weeks) after PTGD can more effectively reduce intraoperative blood loss, accelerate postoperative recovery, and relieve systemic inflammatory response, and it does not increase the risk of complications.

    Objective: To explore the clinical effect of finerenone combined with traditional Chinese medicine enema for detoxification, purging, and removing blood stasis in the treatment of diabetic kidney disease (DKD), and to offer new therapeutic directions for the clinic. Method: 60 patients with DKD admitted to the Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital of Qianxinan Prefecture from December 2023 to December 2024 were taken as the objects. All selected cases were randomly assigned to two groups (observation group and control group). Both groups received conventional basic treatments such as lowering blood glucose, blood lipid, blood pressure and improving circulation. On this basis, the control group was treated with oral fineridone, while the observation group was treated with traditional Chinese medicine enema for detoxification, purging and removing blood stasis. The clinical efficacy and various experimental indicators of the two groups were compared. Result: Compared with the control group, the observation group had higher clinical efficacy and traditional Chinese medicine syndrome efficacy (P<0.05). The comparisons on fasting blood glucose, urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio (UACR), blood urea nitrogen (BUN), and blood creatinine (Scr) in both groups before treatment expressed no statistical difference (P>0.05). The observation group had lower indicators than the control group after treatment (P<0.05). The adverse reactions of both groups were compared, which showed no difference (P>0.05). Conclusion: Finerenone and traditional Chinese medicine enema for detoxification, purging, and removing blood stasis can enhance the clinical efficacy of patients with DKD, lower blood glucose levels, improve renal function, and reduce UACR.

    Objective: To observe the effect of Xanthium sibiricum powder combined with modified Yupingfeng powder and triamcinolone acetonide nasal spray in the treatment of Weibiao Bugu Type Rhinitis with lung qi deficiency and coldness and unstable exterior defense. Method: A total of 80 patients with Weibiao Bugu Type Rhinitis of lung qi deficiency, cold and weak exterior defense type admitted to the outpatient department of outpatient service of Sanming Hospital of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine affiliated to Fujian University of traditional Chinese Medicine from February to October 2024 were selected and randomly divided into the experimental group (Cangerzi San combined with Yupingfeng San modified + triamcinolone acetonide Nasal spray, group A) and the control group (triamcinolone acetonide nasal spray, group B), with 40 cases in each group. The treatment course for both groups was one month. Group A completed the study with 34 cases, and Group B completed the study with 38 cases. Nasal Symptom Score (TNSS), Nasal Conjunctivitis Quality of Life Questionnaire (RQLQ), and TCM Syndrome Score were used to record the scores of patients when they evaluated themselves in the past 6 months and at the end of the treatment course.Blood samples were drawn to detect interleukin-10 (IL-10) and CD4+CD25+Foxp3+ regulatory T cells (T cells, CD4+CD25+Foxp3+Treg) before and one month after the treatment of the patients. Result: Compared within the same group of indicators, TNSS, RQLQ, and TCM syndrome score all decreased after treatment, while IL-10 and CD4+CD25+Foxp3+Treg increased after treatment, and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). After treatment, when comparing the same indicators between groups, the RQLQ and TCM syndrome score in group A were lower than those in group B. The IL-10 and CD4+CD25+Foxp3+Treg in group A were higher than those in group B, and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). The effective rate was 91.18% in group A and 71.05% in group B, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). Conclusion: The combination of Cangerzi San and modified Yupingfeng San with triamcinolone acetonide nasal spray is superior to the use of nasal spray alone in improving the clinical symptoms of AR patients with lung qi deficiency and coldness and unstable exterior defense.

    Objective: To explore the clinical effect of early laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) within 48 hours in the treatment of patients with gallstone pancreatitis (GSP). Method: A total of 80 patients with GSP admitted to Guangze County Hospital from January 2023 to October 2024 were selected as the research subjects. They were divided into the early group and the delayed group by stratified random grouping method, with 40 cases in each group. The early group received LC within 48 hours after the onset of the disease, while the delayed group received LC beyond 48 hours after the onset of the disease. The surgery-related indicators, postoperative recovery-related indicators, biochemical indicators on postoperative day 1, day 3 and day 7, and the occurrence of complications were compared between the two groups. Result: Compared with the delayed group, the early group showed reductions in operation time, intraoperative blood loss, hospital stay, postoperative recovery time of bowel sounds, time of postoperative first exhaust, drainage time, and total drainage volume (P<0.05). Compared with the levels on postoperative day 1, the levels of alanine aminotransferase + aspartate aminotransferase (ALT+AST) and alkaline phosphatase (AKP) in both groups were higher on postoperative day 3 (P<0.05). Moreover, the levels of ALT + AST and AKP were lower on postoperative day 7 than on postoperative day 1 and day 3 (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the levels of ALT + AST and AKP between the groups (P>0.05). There were no significent differences in complication rates between the two group (P>0.05). Conclusion: Early LC within 48 hours for patients with GSP shows significant advantages in surgery-related indicators and postoperative recovery, without increase in abnormal postoperative biochemical indicators. However, its impact on complications remains to be explored.

    Thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) is a group of diseases characterized by microvascular embolism. Its etiology and pathogenesis are complex and diverse, including primary thrombotic microangiopathy and secondary thrombotic microangiopathy. There is a close correlation between A Disintegrin and Metalloproteinase with Thrombospondin Type 1 motif, member 13 (ADAMTS13) and TMA. There are various methods for detecting its activity, and it has positive clinical significance in disease diagnosis, prognosis assessment, and disease differentiation. The role of ADAMTS13 in the diagnosis and treatment of thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura is relatively clear, and it may also play an important role in other types of thrombotic microvascular diseases. The determination of its activity helps to distinguish different types of hemolytic uremic syndrome and other diseases, and provides a basis for treatment. The activity of ADAMTS13 has been reduced to varying degrees in thrombotic microvascular diseases such as disseminated intravascular coagulation, systemic lupus erythematosus nephritis, and severe liver injury, and it may serve as an auxiliary diagnostic indicator for such diseases.
