Objective To describe the current situation of oncology nurses' mastery of cancer pain-related knowledge and explore the correlation between the mastery of knowledge and nursing activities.Methods By convenient sampling,323 oncology nurses in four hospitals were recruited in the questionnaire study.Results Among the 40 pain-related knowledge questions assessed,the mean number of correctly answered questions was (19.33±3.96),with a range of 9 to 33,the correct answer rate for entire questionnaire was between 22.5% to 81.5%,and the pass rate of the questionnaire was 0.62 %; the score of the questionnaire had a positive correlation with pain assessment dimension and therapeutic communication and health education dimension;the self-rated score of pain-related knowledge had a positive correlation with the four dimensions; the times of nurses participating in cancer pain control study and the times of the department's cancer pain control study had a positive correlation with pain assessment dimension.Conclusions Oncology nurses did not grasp cancer pain-related knowledge well,and showed discrepancy in mastery of knowledge and nursing activities.Nursing management can strengthen nurses training in cancer pain management or increase the times of cancer pain control study to promote the implementation of cancer pain nursing activities,and to advance the quality of cancer pain nursing.

Objective:To compare the diagnostic efficacy of 22 G fine needle aspiration (FNA) needles and 22 G end-cutting fine needle biopsy (FNB) needles for solid pancreatic lesion using both cytological and histological examination.Methods:Clinical data of 116 patients who underwent endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine needle aspiration/biopsy (EUS-FNA/FNB) at the Digestive Endoscopy Center of Ruijin Hospital, Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine from June 2022 to March 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. Sixty-three patients sampled with 22 G FNA needles were the FNA group, and 53 sampled with 22 G FNB needles were the FNB group. The diagnostic accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value, and cytological and histological diagnostic yield of FNA needles and FNB needles for solid pancreatic lesions were compared.Results:There were no significant differences in age, gender, lesion location, lesion size, or the number of passes between the FNA group and the FNB group ( P>0.05). There were no significant differences in the diagnostic accuracy [93.7% (59/63) VS 90.6% (48/53), P=0.730], sensitivity [93.0% (53/57) VS 90.2% (46/51), P=0.732], specificity [100.0% (6/6) VS 100.0% (2/2), P=1.000], positive predictive value [100.0% (53/53) VS 100.0% (46/46), P=1.000] and negative predictive value [60.0% (6/10) VS 28.6% (2/7), P=0.335] of combined cytology and histology in distinguishing benign and malignant lesions between the two groups. In the FNA group, the diagnostic accuracy of combined cytology and histology was higher than cytology alone [93.7% (59/63) VS 81.0% (51/63), P=0.008], and was higher than histology alone without statistical significance [93.7% (59/63) VS 87.3% (55/63), P=0.125]. In the FNB group, the diagnostic accuracy of combined cytology and histology was higher than cytology alone [90.6% (48/53) VS 69.8% (37/53), P=0.001], but not than histology alone [90.6% (48/53) VS 90.6% (48/53), P=1.000]. For solid masses located in pancreatic body/tail, the diagnostic accuracy for malignancy by histology using FNB needles tended to be higher than that of FNA needles [100.0% (17/17) VS 81.3% (26/32), P=0.080]. Conclusion:Both FNA needles and FNB needles exhibit adequate diagnostic yield for solid pancreatic masses when combining cytology and histology. FNB needles may offer a higher histological diagnostic yield.
