Objective:To explore whether Internet continuous nursing can reduce anxiety and depression, chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy, improve treatment compliance and reduce adverse reactions in patients with colorectal cancer undergoing oxaliplatin chemotherapy.Methods:A total of 69 patients with colorectal cancer in the Department of oncology, General Hospital of Northern War Zone from July 2019 to June 2020 were selected and divided into the observation group (34 cases) and the control group (35 cases) by random digits table method. The control group was given conventional nursing mode, and the observation group was given Internet continuity nursing mode. All patients were followed up to 3 months after the end of chemotherapy. The basic information, treatment anxiety and depression, chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy, compliance, incidence of adverse reactions and patient satisfaction of the two groups were compared.Results:There was no significant difference in the anxiety and depression before and after chemotherapy, chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy after chemotherapy( P>0.05). After 3 months of chemotherapy, the anxiety and depression and chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy were (20. 97± 3.46),(14.27 ± 1.14) points in the observation group, and (24. 99 ± 1.11),(18.16 ± 2.55) points in the control group, the differences were statistically significant ( t values were 3.80, 5.09, P<0.05). In the control group, there were 19 cases of regular review, 20 cases of persistent chemotherapy, 21 cases of disease awareness, 21 cases of scientific diet, 19 cases of psychological compliance and 19 cases of self-protection. In the observation group, there were 28 cases of regular review, 29 cases of persistent chemotherapy, 30 cases of disease awareness, 28 cases of scientific diet, 30 cases of psychological compliance and 28 cases of self-protection. The treatment compliance in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group (χ 2 values were 4.186-9.657, P<0.05). In the control group, there were 7 cases of peripheral neurotoxicity, 2 cases of acute laryngopharyngeal paresthesia, 18 cases of gastrointestinal reaction and 4 cases of hematotoxicity. Fourteen cases of gastrointestinal reaction in the observation group. The incidence of adverse reactions in the observation group was lower than that in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant ( χ2 value was 8.26, P<0.05). In the control group, 6 were very satisfied, 27 were satisfied and 2 were good.The observation group was very satisfied and satisfied with 16 people and 18 people. The satisfaction in the observation group was higher than that in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant ( Z value was 1.853, P<0.05). Conclusions:Internet continuous nursing can effectively reduce the anxiety and depression of patients and chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy, improve the treatment compliance of patients, reduce the adverse reactions after medication, and improve the quality of life of patients, which is worthy of application and promotion.

Objective To explore the effects of motor acupuncture based on movement pattern adjustment theory on Oswestry Disability Index(ODI),modified Japanese Orthopedic Association(JOA)score and the prognosis in patients with non-specific low back pain(NLBP).Methods A total of 98 patients with NLBP who were admitted to the hospital from March 2020 to March 2023 were randomly divided into control group and observation group,with 49 patients in each group.The con-trol group received lumbar and pelvic rhythm training,while the observation group received motor ac-upuncture based on movement pattern adjustment theory.The Visual Analogue Scale(VAS)score,ODI score,JOA score,low back electromyographic signals[the ratio of maximum EMG during exten-sion to maximum EMG during maximum voluntary flexion(EXT/MVF)and the ratio of maximum EMG during flexion to maximum EMG during maximum voluntary flexion(FLEX/MVF)],and serum inflammatory factors[interleukin-6(IL-6),interleukin-1β(IL-1β)and tumor necrosis factor-α]in both groups were observed before and after treatment.Clinical efficacy and 3-month recurrence rate were compared between the two groups.Results After 2 weeks of treatment,VAS score and ODI score of the observation group were lower than those of the control group,and JOA score was higher than that of the control group(P＜0.05).EXT/MVF and FLEX/MVF of the erector spinae and multifidus muscle in the observation group were higher than those in the control group(P＜0.05).Serum IL-6,IL-1 β and TNF-α levels two weeks after treatment in the observation group were lower than those in the control group(P＜0.05).The effective rate of the observation group was higher,and 3-month recurrence rate of the observation group was lower than that of the control group(P＜0.05).Conclusion Motor acupuncture based on movement pattern adjustment theory can achieve significant therapeutic effect in treating NLBP,which can effectively alleviate pain,improve lumbar function,and reduce inflammatory reactions,with good prognosis and a low recurrence rate.

Objective : To detect the low⁃affinity penicillin⁃binding protein drug resistance , pbp4 gene , and multi⁃ locus sequence typing (MLST) of clinically isolated E. faecalis . Methods : 78 clinical isolates of E. faecalis were collected , and their drug resistance was detected by automated instruments ; the mutation of pbp4 gene mutation was analyzed by PCR amplification and MLST . Results : 78 strains of E. faecalis were highly resistant to ciprofloxacin , levofloxacin , rifampicin , erythromycin , tetracycline and high concentration of gentamicin , and were resistant to penicillin and gentamicin . The ampicillin resistance rate was 10. 3% , and no strains were found to be resistant to nitrofurantoin , vancomycin , teicoplanin and linezolid ; 8 strains of 78 E. faecalis had amplified TEM genes , and all of them were resistant to penicillin and ampicillin resistance , with a positive rate of 10. 3% ; the allelic profiles and sequence types of 78 strains of E. faecalis which were divided into 16 sequence types , of which ST179 and ST16 were the most , with 21 and 21 strains , respectively . 20 strains , accounting for 26. 9% and 25 . 6% , the rest were ST6 type 8 strains (10. 3% ) , ST4 type 7 strains (9 . 0% ) , ST585 type 6 strains (7 . 7% ) , ST480 type 4 strains (5 . 1% ) , ST28 strains 3 strains (3 . 8% ) of the ST type were detected , and only 1 strain was detected for the oth⁃ er ST types . The analysis of the relationship between ST types and drug resistance showed that E. faecalis with the same ST type had similar drug resistance profiles . Conclusion The resistance mechanism of E. faecalis to β ⁃lactam antibiotics is mainly caused by the production of β⁃lactamase mediated by TEM gene , which is not necessarily related to the mutation of pbp4 gene . The isolates of E. faecalis are mainly CC16 ( including ST16 and ST179) clones and drug resistance is serious . It is necessary to guide clinical medication and strengthen nosocomial infection monitoring according to its characteristics .

Background::Carotid intima-media thickness (IMT) and diameter, stiffness, and wave reflections, are independent and important clinical biomarkers and risk predictors for cardiovascular diseases. The purpose of the present study was to establish nationwide reference values of carotid properties for healthy Chinese adults and to explore potential clinical determinants.Methods::A total of 3053 healthy Han Chinese adults (1922 women) aged 18-79 years were enrolled at 28 collaborating tertiary centers throughout China between April 2021 and July 2022. The real-time tracking of common carotid artery walls was achieved by the radio frequency (RF) ultrasound system. The IMT, diameter, compliance coefficient, β stiffness, local pulse wave velocity (PWV), local systolic blood pressure, augmented pressure (AP), and augmentation index (AIx) were then automatically measured and reported. Data were stratified by age groups and sex. The relationships between age and carotid property parameters were analyzed by Jonckheere-Terpstra test and simple linear regressions. The major clinical determinants of carotid properties were identified by Pearson’s correlation, multiple linear regression, and analyses of covariance.Results::All the parameters of carotid properties demonstrated significantly age-related trajectories. Women showed thinner IMT, smaller carotid diameter, larger AP, and AIx than men. The β stiffness and PWV were significantly higher in men than women before forties, but the differences reversed after that. The increase rate of carotid IMT (5.5 μm/year in women and 5.8 μm/year in men) and diameter (0.03 mm/year in both men and women) were similar between men and women. For the stiffness and wave reflections, women showed significantly larger age-related variations than men as demonstrated by steeper regression slopes (all P for age by sex interaction <0.05). The blood pressures, body mass index (BMI), and triglyceride levels were identified as major clinical determinants of carotid properties with adjustment of age and sex. Conclusions::The age- and sex-specific reference values of carotid properties measured by RF ultrasound for healthy Chinese adults were established. The blood pressures, BMI, and triglyceride levels should be considered for clinical application of corresponding reference values.

Objective: To investigate the value of contrast-enhanced CT scans in differential diagnosis of atypical adenomatous hyperplasia (AAH), adenocarcinoma in situ (AIS), minimal invasive adenocarcinoma (MIA) and invasive adenocarcinoma (IAC) in patients who manifested as ground glass nodules (GGNs) or mixed GGNs (mGGNs) in unenhanced CT imaging. Methods: The unenhanced and enhanced CT images of 194 patients with GGNs in the lung were retrospectively analyzed, including 64 cases with pre-invasive lesions, 80 cases with MIA, and 50 cases with IAC. The prediction of pathological types was based on maximal diameters and the solid portions of the lesions displayed on unenhanced and enhanced CT images, and then compared with pathological diagnosis. Results: In 64 patients with pre-invasive lesions, the CT value increased in 59 cases after contrast-enhanced administration, whereas the solid portions increased in 5 cases. In the 80 patients with MIA, solid portions increased in 50 cases and the CT value increased in 30 cases after contrast administration. In 50 cases with IAC, almost all of them showed increased solid portions, whereas only 2 cases showed an increase of CT values. In the pre-invasive group and the MIA group, the increase of CT values after contrast administration was (45.88±15.97) HU and (66.47±44.54) HU, respectively, showing statistically significant difference (P=0.001). The increase of solid portions in the MIA group and IAC group was (1.55±0.73) mm and (1.88±0.75) mm, respectively, also showing significant difference (P=0.032). Conclusion Contrast-enhanced CT scans were more useful than unenhanced CT scans for the diagnosis of lung adenocarcinomas manifesting as GGNs .
