The effectiveness and professionalism of hospice care services for children with cancer are of great significance for improving their quality of life and reducing the mental and economic burden on their families. Currently, a relatively complete quality evaluation system for hospice care for children with cancer has been established abroad, while research in this field in China is still in its infancy. By elaborating on the concept and connotation of quality assessment of hospice care for children with cancer in detail, systematically reviewing the research status of quality assessment of hospice care for children with cancer abroad, and addressing the problems and challenges faced by quality assessment of hospice care for children with cancer in China, corresponding inspirations and improvement strategies were proposed, aiming to provide a reference for improving the quality of hospice care for children with cancer in China.

Objective:To explore the effects of the LAmbre device and mitral annulus(MA), as well as left atrium(LA) in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation(NVAF) after left atrial appendage closure (LAAC) using real-time-three-dimensional transesophageal echocardiography (3D TEE).Methods:Fity-six consecutive patients who underwent LAAC with the LAmbre device in Zhongshan Hospital of Fudan University from June 2019 to March 2023 were retrospectively enrolled, with no or less than moderate mitral regurgitation (MR). All patients underwent pre-operative and follow-up two-and three-dimensional transesophageal echocardiography (2D TEE, 3D TEE) at 60 days after the operation. The quantitative parameters of MA and LA were obtained by offline analysis using QLab 13.0 (Philips Healthcare, Andover, MA). Importantly, mitral annular measurements were made at seven time points throughout the cardiac cycle: early diastole, mid-diastole, late diastole, mitral valve closure, early systole, mid-systole, and late systole, which facilitates constructing the dynamic model of MA to assess the annular morphology and dynamics.Results:The values of AP diameter (APD), AL-PM diameter (ALPMD), 3D annulus circumference (3DAC), 3D annulus area (3DAA) decreased significantly compared with pre-operative values at all time points of the cardiac cycle (all P<0.05), while non-planar angle (NPA) and AH/CD were not apparently changed (all P>0.05 ). Throughout the cardiac cycle, MA showed regular changes, gradually increased in systole with the saddle shape deepened, and gradually decreased in diastole with the saddle shape shallowed.During systole, there was an increase in the rate of change of AP in MA [pre-operative (3.01±2.64)%, post-operative (3.81±3.51)%, P=0.037] after LAAC, with no significant difference in the rate of change of ALPM, 3DAC, and 3DAA.Meanwhile, we observed an evident reduction in LA minimal volume (LAVmin) [pre-operative (78.36±25.16)ml, post-operative (70.73±22.78)ml, P=0.004] and an obvious increase in LA ejection function [pre-operative (22.88±10.09)%, post-operative (31.41±12.28)%, P<0.05] during follow-up. Conclusions:3D TEE can accurately assess the impact of LAAC on the MA and LA. The LAmbre device can affect the morphology of MA, as well as the structure and function of LA, while the change of the dynamics of MA is not so prominent.

Objective:To systematically evaluate the qualitative research on the decision-making participation experience of parents of terminally ill neonates in neonatal intensive care unit (NICU).Methods:Qualitative research on the decision-making participation experience of parents of terminally ill neonates in NICU were searched from PubMed,Web of Science,Embase,CINAHL,Cochrane Library,Sinomed,China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI),Wanfang,and VIP databases,with the search period from the establishment of the database to August 2023.The quality of the literature was evaluated using the qualitative research quality evaluation standard of the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) in Australia,and the literature was summarized using a synthesizing meta-synthesis method.Results:A total of 13 articles of literature were included,as well as 33 results were extracted and classified into 12 new categories and synthesized into 4 integrative outcomes,including participation tendency,role experience,obstacles,and needs on parental decision-making of terminally ill neonates.Conclusion:Parents of terminally ill neonates in NICU face difficult decision-making choices.Medical staff need to work together with parents to determine their ideal role in decision-making and develop personalized communication content.Society,hospitals,and families need to create a supportive social and psychological environment to provide parents with information and emotional support,as well as improve the coping ability of parents of terminally ill neonates in decision-making.

Objective To analyze the changes in left ventricular deformation function in patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma(DLBCL)treated with different doses of anthracycline chemotherapy using 3D speckle-tracking imaging(3D-STI).Methods 66 DLBCL patients receiving anthracycline chemotherapy were enrolled.Based on the cumulative dose of anthracycline received,the patients were divided into a high-dose group(>360 mg/m2,n=39)and a low-dose group(≤360 mg/m2,n=27).Patients underwent transthoracic echocardiography before chemotherapy and within one week after completion of the entire chemotherapy cycle.Left ventricular global longitudinal strain(LVGLS),left ventricular global circumferential strain(LVGCS),and other indices were analyzed using 3D-STI to assess changes in left ventricular deformation indices after chemotherapy and between two groups.Results Compared to baseline,DLBCL patients showed significant reductions in LVGLS,LVGCS and left atrial global longitudinal strain(LAGLS)after treatment completion(P<0.001).When comparing the high-dose group with the low-dose group,there was a significant increase in relative LVGCS change rate at the end of chemotherapy(21.12[6.52,35.37]vs 5.49[-14.73,27.01];P=0.03).However,there were no statistically significant differences in relative left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF),LVGLS,LVGCS,LVEF change rate,or LVGLS change rate between the two groups.Conclusions 3D-STI can be a potential method to identify the sub-clinical deterioration of left ventricular systolic function in patients received anthracycline chemotherapy,the difference of change rate of LVGCS may predict the variation of sub-clinical deterioration of left ventricular function between patients received high and low doses of anthracycline chemotherapy.
