Objective:To develop and validate the stroke recovery phase patient active exercise guidance satisfaction rat-ing scale(SRPPAEGSRS)for stroke recovery patients.Method:Using the self-determination theory as the primary framework,integrated with the Brunnstrom stag-ing and social cognitive theories,an initial scale was developed through literature review,semi-structured inter-views,expert consultations,and a preliminary survey.A convenience sampling of 434 stroke patients in the re-covery phase who visited or were hospitalized in the rehabilitation department of a tertiary hospital in Guizhou province from November 2024 to February 2025 were recruited.Reliability and validity tests were conducted to finalize the scale.Result:A total of 422 valid questionnaires were collected,with an effective response rate of 97.24%.The scale consisted of 2 parts,8 dimensions,and 18 items.Three rounds of expert consultations showed a 100%positive coefficient,Kendall's harmony coefficient>0.5,authority coefficient>0.7,and coefficient of varia-tion<0.280.The critical ratio(CR)for all items in each part and the total scale was>8.The correlation coef-ficients between item scores and total scores for each part and the total scale were>0.6.The item-level con-tent validity index(I-CVI)was>0.8,and the scale-level content validity index(S-CVI)was>0.9.Exploratory factor analysis yielded a cumulative variance contribution rate of 77.895%,with no cross-loadings.Confirmatory factor analysis indicated good model fit(χ2/df=1.250,RMSEA=0.034,CFI=0.935,GFI=0.915).The Cronbach's α coefficient,split-half reliability,and test-retest reliability for each part and the total scale were all>0.8.Conclusion:The scale demonstrated good reliability and validity,enabling systematic assessment stroke patients'needs and acceptance of active exercise guidance during recovery.Additionally,it quantifies patients'satisfac-tion with active exercise guidance through the"need-acceptance"discrepancy and identifies bottlenecks in their active rehabilitation.

Objective:To analyze the epidemiological characteristics and infection sources of cholera in China from 2005 to 2024.Methods:A total of 2 066 cholera cases were included in the study, which were obtained from the China Disease Control and Prevention Information System (CDPCIS) of China CDC. The information on cholera clusters was downloaded from the National Public Health Emergency Event Surveillance System (PHEESS) of China CDC. A total of 128 cholera clusters were included and analyzed in this study. The epidemiological characteristics and infection sources of cholera were analyzed. The Jointpoint model was applied to analyze the incidence trend, and annual percentage change (APC) was also quantified.Results:From 2005 to 2024, a total of 2 066 cholera cases were reported, with an average of 103 cases reported annually. Specifically, the incidence showed a marked downward trend from 2004 to 2015 ( APC=-26.78%, P=0.006). During 2015-2024, the disease remained at low endemic levels, with an average of 18 reported cases annually ( APC=-2.68%, P=0.807). Cholera peak season was from May to October. A total of 24 provinces reported cholera cases, which were mainly distributed in Zhejiang, Fujian, Beijing, Jiangsu, Anhui, Guangdong, and Hainan provinces, accounting for 78.03% of the total cases. Pathogen surveillance indicated an alternating prevalence of Vibrio cholerae serogroups O1 and O139 among laboratory-confirmed cases between 2005 and 2024. There was a disparity in the dominant serogroup of Vibrio cholerae by region. The results from 128 cholera clusters indicated that cholera outbreaks frequently occurred in rural banquets (64.84%), followed by regular restaurants (13.28%). Among these, 63 clusters (49.22%) with identified infection sources indicated that foodborne transmission (95.24%) was the primary mode of cholera transmission, which mainly through seafood and aquatic products, such as soft-shelled turtles, shrimp and shellfish. The characteristics of cholera clusters caused by Vibrio cholerae serogroups O1 and O139 showed statistically significant differences in scale, attack rate, place of residence, setting, and infection source ( P<0.05). Conclusion:Cholera incidence has remained consistently low since 2015 in China, mainly in sporadic cases. Rural gatherings (e.g., wedding banquets) are the main settings for cholera clusters. The main infection sources are predominantly caused by cross-contamination due to improper processing practices of aquatic products, such as soft-shelled turtles.

Pituitary neuroendocrine tumors(PitNETs)are benign tumors originating from the pituitary gland.Although surgical and pharmacological treatments can achieve gross total resection of the tumor and restore endocrine function,patients often experience cognitive dysfunction and emotional regulation disorders,which can reduce their quality of life.Different types of PitNETs present with varying psychological and mental symptoms.For example,patients with prolactinomas,growth hormone-secreting pituitary tumors,and adrenocorticotropic hormone-secreting pituitary tumors commonly experience cognitive impairment(e.g.,memory and executive function)and emotional dysregulation(e.g.,anxiety and depression).Patients with non-functioning PitNETs commonly experience headaches and visual disturbances due to the mass effect of the tumor.Additionally,some of these patients may also develop cognitive impairments.Future research should focus on elucidating the specific mechanisms by which PitNETs influence neuropsychological function,developing more precise bedside assessment tools,and exploring personalized intervention strategies to improve overall treatment outcomes and quality of life for these patients.

Objective:To explore the potential profile characteristics and influencing factors of rehabilitation motivation in elderly patients with first stroke, so as to provide reference for promoting precise rehabilitation mode.Methods:A convenience sampling method was employed to conduct a cross-sectional survey of elderly patients with first stroke admitted to the Huanhu Hospital Affiliated to Tianjin Medical University from October 2024 to March 2025. The survey utilized a general information questionnaire, the Motivation in Stroke Patients for Rehabilitation Scale, the Perceived Social Support Scale (PSSS), the Exercise Adherence Questionnaire (EAQ), and the Stroke Stigma Scale (SSS). Potential categories of rehabilitation motivation among elderly patients with first stroke were identified using latent profile analysis, and the influencing factors of these potential categories were explored using the ordered multinomial Logistic regression.Results:A total of 290 survey questionnaires were distributed, and 281 valid questionnaires were collected, with an effective response rate of 96.9%(281/290). Among 281 elderly patients with first stroke, there were 152 males and 129 females, with an age of (68.68 ± 6.89) years. The score of the Motivation in Stroke Patients for Rehabilitation Scale was 56.00 (36.00, 68.00) points. Rehabilitation motivation among elderly patients with first stroke could be categorized into three groups: low motivation-lack of family support and unclear goals group (44.1%, 124/281), moderate motivation-social reintegration driven but insufficient behavior group (41.3%, 116/281), and high motivation autonomous planning adaptation and value internalization group (14.6%, 41/281). The ordered multinomial Logistic regression analysis showed that compared to patients aged ≥80 years, patients aged 60-69 years were less likely to belong to the high motivation autonomous planning adaptation and value internalization group ( OR=0.231, P<0.05). Compared to patients with a per capita monthly income of ≥5 001 yuan, patients with a per capita monthly income of 3 001-5 000 yuan were more likely to belong to the high motivation autonomous planning adaptation and value internalization group ( OR=2.340, P<0.05). Compared to heavily dependent patients, patients who were completely independent ( OR=0.160, P<0.05), mildly dependent ( OR=0.155, P<0.01), and moderately dependent ( OR=0.211, P<0.05) were less likely to belong to the high motivation autonomous planning adaptation and value internalization group. The higher the EAQ score, the more likely patients were to belong to the high motivation autonomous planning adaptation and value internalization group ( OR=1.139, P<0.01). The higher the PSSS score, the more likely patients were to belong to the high motivation autonomous planning adaptation and value internalization group ( OR=1.108, P<0.01). The higher the SSS score, the less likely patients were to belong to the high motivation autonomous planning adaptation and value internalization group ( OR=0.787, P<0.01). Conclusions:Healthcare professionals can develop targeted intervention strategies based on the characteristics and influencing factors of patients' different rehabilitation motivations, thereby enhancing their rehabilitation motivation and promoting patient recovery.

Objective:To explore the potential categories of internal ability of elderly patients with ischemic stroke, identify the influencing factors and propose corresponding nursing interventions.Methods:This was a cross-sectional study. From January 2025 to May 2025, the elderly patients with ischemic stroke in Tianjin Huanhu Hospital were selected by convenient sampling method. The general information questionnaire, the Internal Capacity Assessment Scale for the Older People, the Health Literacy Scale for stroke patients and the Perceived Social Support Scale were used to investigate. To determine latent categories of patients' intrinsic capacity, potential profile analysis was employed. Subsequently, multivariable Logistic regression examined factors associated with these categories.Results:A total of 260 survey questionnaires were distributed, and 256 valid questionnaires were finally collected, with an effective response rate of 98.46% (256/260). Among of them, there were 166 males and 90 females, aged 68.00 (63.00, 74.00) years.The intrinsic ability of elderly patients with ischemic stroke could be divided into three potential categories: low sensation-low exercise group (27.0%, 69/256), relatively stable intrinsic ability group (37.5%, 96/256) and low cognition-low psychology group (35.5%, 91/256). Multivariable Logistic regression showed that advanced age (compared to the low sensation-low exercise group, OR=0.902; compared to the relatively stable intrinsic ability group, OR=0.813), smoking (compared to the low sensation-low exercise group, OR=0.459; compared to the relatively stable intrinsic ability group, OR=0.442), the lower the Barthel index (compared to the low sensation-low exercise group, ≤40 points with OR=0.157; 41-60 points with OR=0.285) were more likely to enter the low cognition-low psychology group (all P<0.05); other chronic disease types ≤1 (compared to the low cognition-low psychology group, OR=2.630), higher health literacy scores (compared to the low cognition-low psychology group, OR=1.033) were more likely to enter the relatively stable intrinsic ability group (both P<0.05); and stroke frequency was the first occurrence (compared to the low cognition-low psychology group, OR=2.725) was more likely to enter the low sensation-low exercise group ( P<0.05). Conclusions:In older adults with ischemic stroke, the characteristics of intrinsic ability are clearly categorized. To enhance patient outcomes, healthcare professionals are advised to tailor nursing interventions based on the unique features and specific influencing factors associated with each potential category.

Objective:To explore the ability of patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) to recognize facial happy and sad expressions and their correlation with cognitive function.Methods:Convenience sampling was used to select 45 OSA patients in the Geriatric Respiratory Sleep Department of the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from February to September 2023 as the observation group, while 45 volunteers without OSA were recruited as the control group. General Information Questionnaire, Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA), Chinese Facial Affective Picture System (CFAPS), and Facial Expression Suite were used to investigate the study participants. E-prime 2.0 software was used to measure the reaction time and subjective intensity of participants' recognition of happy and sad expressions.Results:A total of 90 questionnaires were distributed, 90 valid questionnaires were recovered, and the effective recovery rate was 100.00%. The reaction time to happy expressions was shorter than that to sad expressions in control group ( P<0.05). The OSA group had a shorter reaction time to sad expressions than the control group ( P<0.05), and the reaction intensity scores of sad expressions of all intensities were higher than those of the control group ( P<0.05) .Intensity scores of sad expressions is negatively correlated with MoCA scores in OSA group. Conclusions:Patients with OSA have a high sensitivity to expressions of sadness, as evidenced by short reaction times, high perceived reaction intensity, and a correlation with cognitive function. OSA patients may misunderstand their social partners' intentions and emotional states, leading to social barriers.
