Objective:This study aimed to analyze and compare the prognosis and the prognostic factors of combined small cell lung cancer (CSCLC) and pure small cell lung cancer (PSCLC) retrospectively. Methods:The clinicopathological characteristics of the 343 small cell lung cancer patients who were diagnosed in Tianjin Medical University Cancer Institute and Hospital between January 2006 and December 2012 were collected and reviewed. Survival analysis was performed and prognostic factors were assessed. Results:The median OS (overall survival) and PFS (progression free survival) of CSCLC were 31 and 21 months, respectively, and the median OS and PFS of PSCLC were 15 and 9 months, respectively. The Kaplan-Meier survival curves revealed that the prognosis of CSCLC was significantly better compared with that of PSCLC. COX analysis showed that disease stage, pathology, and therapy were indepen-dent prognostic factors of small cell lung cancer. Univariate analysis indicated that the small cell lung cancer group benefited from the surgery, particularly the CSCLC. NLR , therapy, and disease stage influenced the prognosis of PSCLC, and disease stage and therapy in-fluenced the prognosis of CSCLC. Multivariate analysis revealed that disease stage and therapy were independent risk factors of CSCLC in regard to OS. Conclusion:The prognosis of CSCLC was better compared with that of PSCLC. Limited-stage small cell lung cancer should undergo surgery, particularly the CSCLC.

Insomnia is one of the most common sleep disorders among children and adolescents.Poor sleep affects cognitive performance and is associated with poor emotional and physical health in children and adolescents.Early identification and treatment can have positive short-and long-term effects on the children,the parents,and the family as a whole.Pediatric sleep medicine had sustained development in recent years,however,in China,the researches on the epidemiology,diagnosis and treatment of insomnia in children and adolescents are in lack.In order to capture the majority of pediatric medical workers and parents attention,and to improve the clinical diagnosis and treatment level,the focuses on current diagnosis,therapy and related study progress of insomnia in children and adolescents were reviewed.

Journal of Clinical Medicine in Practice 2018;22(6):50-53
Objective To explore the risk factors of pressure sores in coma patients in department of neurosurgery,and its nursing interventions.Methods A total of 312 patients in department of neurosurgery in our hospital were selected as research objects,and were divided into pressure sore group with 52 cases and non-pressure sore group,with 260 cases according pressure sores condition.Univariate and multivariate linear regression analysis were performed on the factors that might influence the occurrence of pressure ulcers.Results There were statistically significant differences in age,Braden score,body mass index (BMI),bed-ridden time,chronic disease,Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) score,body temperature and physical activity between the pressure sore group and the non-pressure sore group (P < 0.05).Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that age,GCS score,bed-ridden time,activity and Braden score were independent risk factors for pressure sores in coma patients in department of neurosurgery (P < 0.05).Conclusion The incidence of pressure sores in coma patients in department of neurosurgery is high,and influenced by many factors,so preventive nursing measures should be formulated to prevent the incidence of pressure sores.

Objective:To explore CPEB4 expression in patients with NSCLC and its prognostic value.Methods:The CPEB4 mRNA expres-sion levels were detected by real-time quantitative PCR,while the expression levels of proteins were detected by Western blot.The protein expression in formalin-fixed samples were analyzed by immunohistochemistry.The prognostic significance of CPEB4 in NSCLC patients was investigated by Log-rank and Cox proportional hazard regression model.Results:The mRNA and protein expression levels of CPEB4 in NSCLC cell lines were both higher than those in normal lung cell line.The mRNA and protein expression levels of CPEB4 were significantly upregulated in NSCLC tissues compared to the adjacent non-tumor tissues.The CPEB4-positive expression ratio was 38.2% in the formalin-fixed samples.N stages were identified as the relative factors of CPEB4 expression(P<0.05).Cox multivariate analysis showed significant relationships between overall survival and T stage,and between N stage and CPEB4 expression.Conclu-sions:CPEB4 expression was elevated in NSCLC and was related with the prognosis.Hence,it may be a potential target in NSCLC treat-ment.

Objective:To investigate the status quo and influencing factors of decision-making regret of surrogate decision makers (SDMs) in neurocritically ill patients.Methods:This study was a cross-sectional survey. A total of 110 critically ill patients admitted to Department of Neurosurgery, First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui University of Traditional Chinese Medicine from August 2021 to April 2022 were selected as the research objects by convenient sampling method. Different methods were adopted in the research including general information questionnaire, Chinese Version of Decision-Making Regret Assessment Scale, Disease-Related Knowledge Awareness Questionnaire, General Self-Efficacy Scale, Self-Rating Anxiety Scale, Self-Rating Depression Scale to conduct a questionnaire survey on SDMs in neurocritically ill patients. Multiple linear stepwise regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of decision-making regret in SDMs in neurocritically ill patients.Results:Among the 110 patients with severe neurological diseases, 50.0% (55/110) had no regret, 30.9% (34/110) had mild regret, and 19.1 (21/110) had moderate and severe regret. The results of univariate analysis showed that gender had a statistically significant effect on the score of SDMs decision regret in neurocritical patients ( t=6.57, P<0.05). The age, relationship with patients, education level, decision-making style, place of residence, and monthly income of the family had no effect on the score of regret in decision-making ( t=0.09-1.01, all P>0.05). The results of correlation analysis showed that the score of decision-making regret of SDMs in neurocritically ill patients was negatively correlated with the scores of disease-related knowledge and self-efficacy ( r=-0.342, -0.252, both P<0.05), and positively correlated with the scores of anxiety and depression ( r=0.403, 0.360, both P<0.05). The results of multiple linear regression showed that gender, disease-related knowledge, self-efficacy, anxiety and depression were important factors affecting the decision-making regret of SDMs in neurocritically ill patients ( t values were -3.37-4.31, all P<0.05). Conclusions:SDMs in neurocritically ill patients have a higher degree of decision-making regret, and gender, disease-related knowledge, self-efficacy, anxiety, depression are important influencing factors, suggesting that medical staff can alleviate the decision-making regret of SDMs through decision-making assistance interventions.
