Objective To evaluate the correlations between arterial partial pressure of oxygen (PaO2), arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO2) and age in the population of Han nationality aged over 15 years old. Methods Three hundred Chinese Han nationality patients who underwent elective surgery were selected. They were involved in ASA class Ⅰ-Ⅲ, including 162 male and 138 female. Radial artery or dorsalis pedis artery was punctured, performed indwelling catheter, and connected the pressure transducer under local anesthesia. Blood gas analysis was collected before anesthesia. Results The linear regression trend diagram showed that the level of PaO2 had linear negative correlation with age . The calculating formula was PaO2(mmHg) = 101.7- 0.278 × age (years) (1 mmHg = 0.133 kPa, R2=0.903). The level of PaCO2 didn′t change with age, and average was (38.2 ± 2.8) mmHg. Conclusions The level of PaO2 is gradually decreased with age, but the level of PaCO2 isn′t affected by age.

Objective To make a comparison between noninvasive blood pressure (NIBP) and invasive blood pressure (IBP). Method Totally 450 patients undergoing selective surgery received radial artery or dorsalispedis artery puncture and catheter under local anesthesia to figure out the difference between NIBP and IBP. Results The systolic blood pressure difference of IBP from different positions and NIBP were as follows:left radial artery group (18.20 ± 0.67, 15.27 ± 0.62) mmHg, right radial artery group (18.54 ± 0.79, 14.68 ± 0.77) mmHg, left foot dorsal artery group (41.98 ± 2.26, 40.54 ± 1.77) mmHg and right foot dorsal artery group (37.57 ± 0.01, 37.93 ± 2.90) mmHg. The noninvasive systolic blood pressure difference between left and right arms was (2.84 ± 0.45) mmHg, the noninvasive diastolic blood pressure difference (3.19 ± 0.34) mmHg, and the noninvasive mean blood pressure difference (2.85 ± 0.35) mmHg. The NIBP of right arm was higher than that of left arm. Conclusions IBP is higher than NIBP, and the invasive artery systolic blood pressure is about 20mmHg higher than noninvasive systolic blood pressure. Meanwhile we confirm that systolic blood pressure gradually rises over 30 years old, and diastolic blood pressure increases while gradually declines after 50.

ObjectiveTo investigate the accuracy of automated breast volume scanning (ABVS) for the measurement of breast tumor size.MethodsSixty-two breast tumors in 59 patients were included in this study and were examined using conventional ultrasound and ABVS to measure the maximal diameters of the tumors. And the measurement results were compared with the pathological maximal diameters.Results There were 21 malignant and 41 benign tumors according to histopathological evaluation. There were no signifi cant differences between the maximal diameters on ABVS and on pathological measurements for both benign tumors and malignant tumors (Z=1.761, 0.262,P=0.078, 0.794). However, for malignant tumors, the maximal diameters on conventional ultrasound were significantly smaller than those on pathological measurements (Z=3.743,P=0.000). For benign tumors, the maximal diameters on conventional ultrasound were similar with those on pathological measurements (Z=1.935,P=0.053). The measurement values of conventional ultrasound and ABVS were both positively correlated with those on pathological values (r=0.935, 0.964,r=0.870, 0.964). And the correlation coeffi cients between ABVS and pathological measurement values were higher than those between conventional ultrasound and pathological measurement values for both benign and malignant tumors. ConclusionABVS can assess the size of breast tumor more accurately than conventional ultrasound, especially for the malignant tumors.

Objective:To observe the inhibitory effect of gambogic acid on the proliferation of liver cancer cells HepG2 and explore its mechanism.Methods:The vitro cultured liver cancer cells HepG2 were divided into the control group, low dose gambogic acid group, medium dose gambogic acid group and high dose gambogic acid group according to random number table method, 5 multiple holes in each group. The control group was cultured in normal medium and 0.5% DMSO was added as the solvent control. The 0.1, 1 and 10 μmol/L of gambogic acid were added to low, medium and high dose group of gambogic acid for intervention. MTT method was used to detect the inhibition rate of cell proliferation, flow cytometry was used to detect the apoptosis rate, Hoechst nuclear staining was used to observe the nucleus apoptosis, and Western blot was used to detect the expression of Bcl-2 and Bax protein.Results:Compared with the control group, the HepG2 cells proliferation rate (68.00% ± 3.55%, 51.93% ± 4.36%, 47.16% ± 4.73% vs. 99.87% ± 4.53%) in low, medium and high dose gambogic acid group significantly decreased ( P<0.01); apoptosis rate (23.00% ± 1.22%, 40.09% ± 4.65%, 70.32% ± 4.99% vs. 4.33% ± 0.57%) significantly elevated ( P<0.01); Bcl-2 experssion (0.73 ± 0.10, 0.25 ± 0.10, 0.19 ± 0.08 vs. 0.97 ± 0.11) significantly decreased ( P<0.01); and Bax expression (0.39 ± 0.14, 0.88 ± 0.15, 0.85 ± 0.13 vs. 0.22 ± 0.08) significantly elevated ( P<0.01); Bax/Bcl-2 (0.34 ± 0.10, 1.87 ± 0.29, 1.63 ± 0.23 vs. 0.13 ± 0.06) significantly increased ( P<0.01). Hoechst staining showed that the apoptosis rate of HepG2 cells increased in a dose-dependent manner with the increasing concentration of gambogic acid.

Objective:To establish a new model for the prediction of severe outcomes of COVID-19 patients and provide more comprehensive, accurate and timely indicators for the early identification of severe COVID-19 patients.Methods:Based on the patients’ admission detection indicators, mild or severe status of COVID-19, and dynamic changes in admission indicators (the differences between indicators of two measurements) and other input variables, XGBoost method was applied to establish a prediction model to evaluate the risk of severe outcomes of the COVID-19 patients after admission. Follow up was done for the selected patients from admission to discharge, and their outcomes were observed to evaluate the predicted results of this model.Results:In the training set of 100 COVID-19 patients, six predictors with higher scores were screened and a prediction model was established. The high-risk range of the predictor variables was calculated as: blood oxygen saturation <94 %, peripheral white blood cells count >8.0×10 9, change in systolic blood pressure <-2.5 mmHg, heart rate >90 beats/min, multiple small patchy shadows, age >30 years, and change in heart rate <12.5 beats/min. The prediction sensitivity of the model based on the training set was 61.7 %, and the missed diagnosis rate was 38.3 %. The prediction sensitivity of the model based on the test set was 75.0 %, and the missed diagnosis rate was 25.0 %. Conclusions:Compared with the traditional prediction (i.e. using indicators from the first test at admission and the critical admission conditions to assess whether patients are in mild or severe status), the new model’s prediction additionally takes into account of the baseline physiological indicators and dynamic changes of COVID-19 patients, so it can predict the risk of severe outcomes in COVID-19 patients more comprehensively and accurately to reduce the missed diagnosis of severe COVID-19.

Objective:To analyze the status quo, hotspots and fronts of emergency nursing training research at home and abroad in the past ten years, and to provide reference and ideas for the efficient development of emergency nursing training in China.Methods:CiteSpace 6.2.R2 software was used to visually analyze the Chinese and English literatures on emergency nursing training included in CNKI and Web of Science core databases from January 1, 2013 to June 1, 2023.Results:A total of 1 177 Chinese literatures and 1 163 English literatures were included. The number of foreign articles in this field increased year by year, while the number of domestic articles showed a downward trend since 2018. There were many stable core author groups and core institution groups in foreign countries, while there was less cooperation among domestic authors and institutions. The common research hotspots and frontiers at home and abroad focused on broadening the training audience of emergency nursing, innovating the training methods of emergency nursing, strengthening the evaluation of the effect of emergency nursing training, and paying attention to the training experience and needs of nurses. Foreign researches also focused on specialized nurses, interprofessional education and nurses′mental health, etc, and the research direction was diversified.Conclusions:The development stages of emergency nursing training researches at home and abroad are different, and the research hotspots are different. In the future, we should learn from foreign research, strengthen interdisciplinary cooperation, improve the depth and breadth of research, and strengthen the cooperation between authors, institutions and countries to promote the high-quality development of emergency nursing training research in China.
