Objective:To analyze the application effect of integrated medical and nursing management model based on intelligent medical system in preventing postoperative breast cancer lymphedema.Methods:A total of 180 patients undergoing axillary lymph node dissection for breast cancer were selected in the Affiliated Hospital of Nantong University from July 2018 to August 2019. According to the random number table method, they were divided into treatment group and control group for 90 cases in each group, and finally completed the study: 86 cases in treatment group and 82 cases in control group. The control group was given routine health management, and the treatment group was given an integrated management model based on intelligent medical systems. After 6 months of follow-up, the two groups of patients were compared for their cognition of lymphedema, prevention behavior, incidence of lymphedema, and patient satisfaction.Results:The incidence, clinical manifestations, risk factors, prevention methods, and overall awareness rates of lymphedema in the treatment group were 82.56%(71/ 86), 84.88%(73/86), 83.72%(72/86), 83.72%(72/86), 83.72%(72/86), and the control group were 67.07%(55/82), 70.73%(58/82), 68.29%(56/82), 69.51%(57/82), 70.73%(58/82), the differences were statistically significant ( χ2 values were 4.046-5.508, P<0.05). The total scores of skin care, lifestyle, avoidance of upper limb compression, and prevention of lymphedema in the treatment group were (9.54±1.04), (30.45±2.45), (9.35±1.08), (58.92±8.20) points, and the control group were (8.12±1.32), (8.12±1.32), (8.74±1.14), (53.45±7.64) points, the differences were statistically significant ( t values were 3.561-7.764, P<0.01). The incidence of lymphedema in the treatment group was 9.30%(8/86), and that in the control group was 23.17%(19/82), the difference was statistically significant ( χ2 value was 5.985, P<0.05). Satisfaction was 95.35%(82/86) in the treatment group and 82.93%(68/82) in the control group, the difference was statistically significant ( χ2 value was 6.771, P<0.01). Conclusions:The integrated management of medical care and patients based on intelligent medical system can help improve the level of lymphedema cognition in patients with breast cancer surgery, promote the development of lymphedema prevention behavior, reduce the incidence of postoperative lymphedema, and improve patient satisfaction.

Objective:This study aims to explore the causal relationship between obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and type 2 diabetes (T2D) using bidirectional Mendelian randomization (MR).Methods:The genetic data related to OSA were obtained from the FinnGen Biobank (Ncase=16, 761, Ncontrol=201, 194) in the Genome-wide association study (GWAS). Three single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) were screened out as instrumental variable (IV) of OSA. The genetic data related to T2D were derived from a large Meta-analysis of GWAS (Ncase=62, 892, Ncontrol=596, 424), 114 SNP were selected as IV of T2D. Multiple MR methods were used for analysis and inverse variance weighted (IVW) was performed as main method. The sensitivity of MR analytic results was analyzed using MR-Egger and other methods, and the IV was evaluated using F-value statistics. Results:MR analysis showed that OSA was significantly associated with increased risk of T2D ( OR=2.016, 95% CI: 1.185-3.429, P<0.05). There was no significant relationship between T2D and OSA risk ( OR=1.030, 95% CI: 0.980-1.082, P=0.238). There was heterogeneity in both-way results (OSA?T2D, P=1.808×10 -11; T2D?OSA, P=1.729×10 -7), and no horizontal pleiotropy (OSA?T2D, P=0.477; T2D?OSA, P=0.349). IV of OSA and T2D-selected in the study were strong instrumental variables ( F statistics of OSA=20.543; F statistics of T2D=30.117). Conclusion:Our results supported that OSA was a risk factor for T2D, but T2D had no significant impact on the incidence of OSA. Blood glucose monitoring and diabetes screening in OSA patients might be beneficial to the early detection and intervention of T2D.

BACKGROUND:
The SMARCA4 mutation has been shown to account for at least 10% of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). In the present, conventional radiotherapy and targeted therapy are difficult to improve outcomes due to the highly aggressive and refractory nature of SMARCA4-deficient NSCLC (SMARCA4-DNSCLC) and the absence of sensitive site mutations for targeted drug therapy, and chemotherapy combined with or without immunotherapy is the main treatment. Effective SMARCA4-DNSCLC therapeutic options, however, are still debatable. Our study aimed to investigate the efficacy and prognosis of programmed cell death 1 (PD-1) immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) in combination with chemotherapy and chemotherapy in patients with stage III-IV SMARCA4-DNSCLC.
METHODS:
46 patients with stage III-IV SMARCA4-DNSCLC were divided into two groups based on their treatment regimen: the chemotherapy group and the PD-1 ICIs plus chemotherapy group, and their clinical data were retrospectively analyzed. Efficacy assessment and survival analysis were performed in both groups, and the influencing factors for prognosis were explored for patients with SMARCA4-DNSCLC.
RESULTS:
Male smokers are more likely to develop SMARCA4-DNSCLC. There was no significant difference in the objective response rate (76.5% vs 69.0%, P=0.836) between chemotherapy and the PD-1 ICIs plus chemotherapy or the disease control rate (100.0% vs 89.7%, P=0.286). The one-year overall survival rate in the group with PD-1 ICIs plus chemotherapy was 62.7%, and that of the chemotherapy group was 46.0%. The difference in median progression-free survival (PFS) between the PD-1 ICIs plus chemotherapy group and the chemotherapy group was statistically significant (9.3 mon vs 6.1 mon, P=0.048). The results of Cox regression analysis showed that treatment regimen and smoking history were independent influencing factors of PFS in patients with stage III-IV SMARCA4-DNSCLC, and family history was an individual influencing factor of overall survival in patients with stage III-IV SMARCA4-DNSCLC.
CONCLUSIONS
Treatment regimen may be a prognostic factor for patients with SMARCA4-DNSCLC, and patients with PD-1 ICIs plus chemotherapy may have a better prognosis.
