Objective:To explore the risk factors of pneumoconiosis complicated with pulmonary tuberculosis, to construct a clinical prediction model for patients with pneumoconiosis complicated with pulmonary tuberculosis, and to provide a scientific basis for the prevention of pneumoconiosis complicated with pulmonary tuberculosis.Methods:In January 2024, a total of 232 patients with pneumoconiosis (including coal workers' pneumoconiosis and silicosis) who were treated in the Department of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine of the Third People's Hospital of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region (Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region Occupational Disease Hospital) from January 2022 to January 2023 were randomly selected as the study subjects. Collectted basic patient information and diagnostic data. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to screen the risk factors related to pneumoconiosis complicated with pulmonary tuberculosis. According to the results of multivariate logistic regression analysis, a nomogram was established, and the area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve (AUC), calibration curve and decision curve analysis (DCA) were used to evaluate the predictive ability.Results:Among the 232 patients with pneumoconiosis, 73 were complicated with pulmonary tuberculosis, accounting for 31.47% (73/232). Multivariate logistic regression analysis determined that dust exposure time, type of work, smoking history, and lung function level were all risk factors for pneumoconiosis complicated with tuberculosis ( OR=10.33, 95% CI=1.92~55.66, OR=5.43, 95% CI=1.91~15.44, OR=3.10, 95% CI=1.15~8.37, OR=4.00, 95% CI=1.62~9.87; P<0.05). The constructed nomogram model has good clinical applicability when the area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve is 0.77 [95% CI (0.69, 0.73) ], the calibration curve is close to the ideal diagonal, the absolute error between the simulation curve and the actual curve is 0.03, and the DCA decision curve shows that the probability threshold of the nomogram model is 1%-90%. Conclusion:The risk of pneumoconiosis complicated with tuberculosis is high, and the risk factors of dust exposure time, smoking history, type of work and lung function level are high. This nomogram model can be used to predict the risk of pulmonary tuberculosis in patients with pneumoconiosis, which is helpful for early intervention.

Objective To observe the application effect of the H2H model in rehabilitation nurs-ing for patients undergoing radical mastectomy.Methods A total of 294 patients who underwent rad-ical mastectomy were enrolled as study subjects and randomly divided into conventional group and H2H group using a simple randomization method(coin toss),with 147 patients in each group.The conventional group received routine nursing interventions,while the H2H group received nursing in-terventions based on the H2H model.At 1 week and 3 months post-intervention,shoulder joint func-tion[assessed using the Constant-Murley Shoulder Function Score(CMS)],nutritional indicators(serum albumin,hemoglobin)levels,self-management efficacy[assessed using the Self-care Self-ef-ficacy Scale(SUPPH)],and quality of life[assessed using the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Breast(FACT-B)]were observed and compared between the two groups.Results At 3 months post-intervention,the pain,daily living activities,range of motion,and muscle strength scores in the CMS were higher than those at 1 week post-intervention in both groups,with the H2H group showing higher scores than the conventional group,and the differences were statistically signifi-cant(P＜0.05).At 3 months post-intervention,the albumin and hemoglobin levels were lower than those at 1 week post-intervention in both groups,but the H2H group had higher levels than the con-ventional group,and the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05).At 3 months post-inter-vention,the positive attitude,self-decision-making,and self-stress reduction scores in the SUPPH were higher than those at 1 week post-intervention in both groups,with the H2H group showing higher scores than the conventional group,and the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05).At 3 months post-intervention,the scores for physical well-being,social/family well-being,emotional well-being,functional well-being,and the breast cancer-specific module in the FACT-B were higher than those at 1 week post-intervention in both groups,with the H2H group showing higher scores than the conventional group,and the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05).Conclu-sion The application of the H2H model in rehabilitation nursing for patients after radical mastecto-my can promote the recovery of shoulder joint function,improve nutritional status,and enhance self-management efficacy and quality of life.

Objective:To explore the value of the vesical imaging-reporting and data system (VI-RADS) score based on multiparametric MRI (mpMRI) combined with quantitative tumor MRI parameters in assessing the muscle invasion of bladder cancer.Methods:The study was a case-control study. The data of 87 bladder cancer patients confirmed by pathology who underwent mpMRI of the bladder were retrospectively collected from the First Medical Center of Chinese PLA General Hospital between January 2019 and April 2023 The pathological findings were used as the gold standard to categorize them into the muscle invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) group (29 cases) and non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) group (58 cases). Quantitative parameters were measured based on preoperative mpMRI images, including the length of tumor bladder wall contact, the perpendicular distance between the bladder tumor and the tangent of the bladder wall, the maximal diameter of the bladder tumor, and the volume of the bladder tumor. Bladder cancer was classified according to the VI-RADS scoring criteria. The Mann-Whitney U test was used for intergroup comparisons. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed to obtain the independent risk factors related to muscle invasion of bladder cancer and to establish the model. The receiver operating characteristic curves were analyzed for MRI quantitative parameters and logistic regression models, and area under the curve (AUC) comparisons were performed using the DeLong test. Results:The differences in tumor bladder wall contact length, perpendicular distance from the tumor to the tangent line of the bladder wall, maximum diameter, bladder tumor volume, and the VI-RADS scores were statistically significant between the MIBC group and the NMIBC group ( P<0.05). Multifactorial logistic regression analysis showed that tumor bladder wall contact length ( OR=21.07, 95% CI 3.56-124.89, P=0.001) and VI-RADS score ( OR=11.90, 95% CI 3.53-40.12, P<0.001) were the independent risk factors for evaluating the muscle invasion of bladder cancer. The difference between the VI-RADS score and the tumor bladder wall contact length for assessing muscular infiltration of bladder cancer had AUCs of 0.802 (95% CI 0.704-0.899) and 0.759 (95% CI 0.652-0.865). The combined model of VI-RADS score combined with tumor bladder wall contact length had an AUC of 0.891 (95% CI 0.812-0.970), which was higher than the diagnostic efficacy of applying tumor bladder wall contact length or VI-RADS score alone ( Z=3.05, 2.37, P=0.002, 0.018). Conclusion:Tumor contact length with the bladder wall is an independent risk factor for assessing muscle invasion of bladder cancer and the combination of VI-RADS score may enhances diagnostic accuracy.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the clinical and genetic features of a Chinese pedigree with Progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis (PFIC) and explore its genotype-phenotype correlation. METHODS: A patient with PFIC diagnosed at Xinxiang Central Hospital in 2023 was selected as the study subject. The patient was subjected to abdominal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and painless gastroscopy. Peripheral blood samples were collected from the patient and his parents for the extraction of genomic DNA and trio-whole exome sequencing (trio-WES). Candidate variants were verified by Sanger sequencing. This study has been approved by the Medical Ethics Committee of Xinxiang Hospital (Ethics No. 2023-241). RESULTS: MRI scan showed that the patient had significantly enlarged liver and spleen. WES revealed that he has harbored compound heterozygous variants of the ATP8B1 gene, including a c.1710_1711insCCTC (p.A571Pfs*12) frameshifting variant in exon 16 and a c.2989G>A (p.V997M) missense variant in exon 24, which were respectively inherited from his father and mother, and rated as pathogenic (PVS1+PM2_Supporting+PM3+PP1) and likely pathogenic (PM2_Supporting+PM3+PP1) based on the guidelines from the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics (ACMG). CONCLUSION WES can clarify the genetic etiology of patients with speed and accuracy, and facilitate clinical decision-making. The detection of pathogenic variants has provided a basis for clinical diagnosis and enriched the mutational spectrum of the ATP8B1 gene.

Objective:To explore the learning curve of primary urologists mastering Holmium laser enucleation of the prostate for the treatment of large volume benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).Methods:The clinical data of 92 patients with larger volume BPH who received HoLEP performed by a urologist in Beijing Friendship Hospital Pinggu Campus, Capital Medical University were retrospectively reviewed. 92 patients were divided into group A (1-23 cases, n=23), group B (24-46 cases, n=23), group C (47-69 cases, n=23), and group D (70-92 cases, n=23) based on the sequence of surgery. The clinical characteristics, including prostate volume, operation time, enucleation efficiency, indwelling catheter time, decrease value of hemoglobin, intraoperative blood transfusion, perioperative complications, and international prostate symptom score (IPSS), quality of life (QOL) score, Qmax, and postvoid residual urine (PVR) at 3 months postoperatively were compared between the four groups. Measurement data were expressed as mean ± standard deviation ( ± s), one-way analysis of variance was used for comparisons among multiple groups, and t-test was used for comparisons between two groups. Count data were expressed as the cases and percentage, and the Chi-square test was used for comparison between groups. Results:There were significant differences among the four groups in terms of operation time [(94.43±8.26) min, (86.39±5.89) min, (70.70±5.64) min, (64.70±4.23) min, P=0.001], enucleation efficiency [(0.90±0.08) mL/min, (1.01±0.07) mL/min, (1.23±0.12) mL/min, (1.34±0.12) mL/min, P=0.001], decrease value of hemoglobin [(25.98±1.39) g/L, (23.27±1.49) g/L, (20.03±1.07) g/L, (18.49±0.96) g/L, P=0.001] and indwelling catheter time [(5.91±1.54) d, (5.35±1.27) d, (3.39±0.72) d, (3.04±0.64) d, P=0.001]. Compared with group C and group D, the operation time was longer, the enucleation efficiency was lower, the decrease value of hemoglobin before and after the operation was higher, and the indwelling catheter time was longer, the above differences were all statistically significant ( P<0.05). However, there was no statistically significant difference between group A and group B, or group C and group D ( P>0.05). Among the 92 patients, only 3 patients received blood transfusion during operation, including 2 patients in group A and 1 patient in group B. 2 patients underwent surgical complications during the perioperative period. Among them, 1 patient suffered bladder wall injury due to improper operation of the tissue pulverizer in group A, and 1 patient developed prostatic capsule perforation in group B. Furthermore, after 56 cases of operation, a primary urologist can perform HoLEP surgery quickly and safely. Conclusion:The learning curve of a primary urologist mastering HoLEP for larger volume (≥ 80 mL) BPH was 56 procedures, and the operation efficiency and safety were significantly improved.
