Objective To discuss the nursing care for patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) who are receiving transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) combined with sorafenib. Methods A total of 23 consecutive patients with advanced HCC who met the inclusion criteria were enrolled in this study. TACE was carried out in all patients. Three-five days after TACE the patients started to orally take sorafenib. During the treatment course, the patients were kept under close observation for adverse reactions and complications. After leaving the hospital the patients were followed up by the extended care team members, and health education as well as appropriate nursing intervention was carried out. Results All patients with advanced HCC took sorafenib orally after TACE. The major adverse events and complications were gastrointestinal adverse reactions (n = 22) and transient liver dysfunction (n = 23). After leaving the hospital all the patients received regular follow- up examination and extended nursing care. Conclusion Usually, the incidence of adverse reactions is higher in patients with advanced HCC after TACE combined with sorafenib treatment. Careful in-hospital observation and extended out-hospital nursing can reduce the incidence of adverse reactions and thus improve the patient’s quality of life.

Objective:To construct a Bayesian network risk prediction model for delirium during recovery from general anesthesia. To explore the network relationship between awakening delirium of general anesthesia and its related factors, and to reflect the influence intensity of each factor on awakening delirium of general anesthesia through network reasoning.Methods:This is a cross-sectional study. From February to May 2022, the Chinese version of the four rapid delirium diagnosis protocols for general anesthesia patients admitted to the department of Anesthesia, the First Hospital of Shanxi Medical University were adopted as research subjects through convenience sampling method to carry out the delirium screening program during awakening, and general information and blood sample laboratory test results of the subjects were collected. The single factor analysis was used to screen the correlative factors of awakening delirium and a Bayesian network model based on the maximum minimum climb method (MMHC) was constructed.Results:A total of 480 patients were included in the study, and the delirium rate during the recovery period of general anesthesia was 12.9%(62/480). The Bayesian network of awakening delirium consisted of 11 nodes and 18 directed edges. The Bayesian network showed that age, sodium, cerebral infarction and hypoproteinemia were the direct factors related to awakening delirium, while ASA grade, hematocele and hemoglobin were the indirect factors related to awakening delirium. The area under its ROC curve was 0.80(0.78-0.83).Conclusions:Bayesian networks can well reveal the complex network connections between awakening delirium and its related factors, and then prevent and control awakening delirium accordingly.

Gardeniae Fructus (GF) and Semen Sojae Praeparatum (SSP) are both medicine food homologies and widely used in Chinese clinical prescriptions together. The research investigated the pharmacokinetics of four iridoids in normal rats and isolfavones-fed rats, which were administered with isolfavones from SSP for 7, 14, 21 and 28 consecutive days. A validated LC-MS/MS method was developed for determining shanzhiside, genipin-1-gentiobioside, geniposide and their metabolite genipin in rat plasma. Plasma samples were pretreated by solid-phase extraction using paeoniflorin as the internal standard. The chromatographic separation was performed on a Waters Atlantis T3 (4.6 mm × 150 mm, 3μm) column using a gradient mobile phase consisting of acetonitril and water (containing 0.06%acetic acid). The mass detection was under the multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) mode via polarity switching between negative and positive ionization modes. The calibration curves exhibited good linearity (r>0.997) for all components. The lower limit of quantitation was in the range of 1-10 ng/mL. The intra-day and inter-day precisions (RSD) at three different levels were both less than 12.2% and the accuracies (RE) ranged from -10.1% to 16.4%. The extraction recovery of them ranged from 53.8% to 99.7%. Pharmacokinetic results indicated the bioavailability of three iridoid glycosides and the metabolite, genipin in normal rats was higher than that in rats exposed to isoflavones. With the longer time of administration of iso-flavones, plasma concentrations of iridoids decreased, while genipin sulfate, the phase II metabolite of genposide and genipin-1-gentiobioside, appeared the rising exposure. The pharmacokinetic profiles of main iridoids from GF were altered by isoflavones.
