Objective:To evaluate the effects of different types of psychological interventions on the fear of cancer recurrence through a network Meta-analysis.Methods:Randomized controlled trials on the effects of different types of psychological interventions on the fear of cancer recurrence were retrieved from PubMed, PsycINFO, Web of Science, The Cochrane Library, Embase, EBSCO, China Biomedical Literature Database, CNKI, Wanfang Database and Vip Database. The retrieval period was from the establishment of the database to December, 31 2022. Two researchers conducted literature screening, extraction and quality evaluation, and used Stata14.0 software to conduct network Meta-analysis.Results:A total of 29 pieces of research involving 3 068 cancer patients and 11 psychological intervention measures. The results of network Meta-analysis showed that narrative therapy, PERMA(Positive, Engagement, Relationship, Meaning, Accomplishment) happiness theory model, acceptance and commitment therapy and cognitive behavior therapy had statistically significant differences in the intervention effect on the fear of cancer recurrence compared with conventional nursing ( SMD values were -1.93--0.83, all P<0.05); there was no significant difference among narrative therapy, PERMA happiness model, acceptance and commitment therapy and gratitude-expansion behavior theory (all P>0.05). The results of the cumulative probability map showed the best intervention was narrative therapy. Conclusions:The results of this study suggest that narrative therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, and cognitive behavior therapy may be effective psychological intervention measures to improve the fear of cancer recurrence. However, more studies are still needed for further verification.

Objective:To explore the genes related to primary myelofibrosis (PMF) and signaling pathways as well as the possible clinical significance.Methods:A total of 3 mRNA expression datasets of PMF (GSE26049, GSE61629 and GSE53482) were downloaded from Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database, including the data of peripheral blood samples from 55 PMF patients and 58 controls. The differentially expressed genes (DEG) between PMF patients and the controls were identified by using online tool GEO2R. Gene ontology (GO) annotation, Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway enrichment analysis were performed on the common DEG of the 3 datasets, and then protein interaction (PPI) network was constructed. The key nodes of the common DEG in PPI network were calculated by using MCC method and Degree method in cytoHubba program; finally the top 10 hub genes were selected and the hub genes shared by the 2 methods were obtained. Peripheral blood samples of 25 PMF patients and 10 controls (normal hematopoietic stem cell transplant donors or iron deficiency anemia patients) admitted to the Second Hospital of Shanxi Medical University from September 2017 to June 2021 were retrospectively collected. Reverse transcription-fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) was used to detect the expression levels of 10 screened common hub genes in each sample, and the expressions of all genes at transcriptional level of the two groups were compared.Results:A total of 239 common DEG between PMF patients and the controls were screened out in the 3 datasets, including 153 downregulated DEG and 86 upregulated DEG. The GO enrichment analysis showed that the common downregulated DEG were significantly enriched in negative regulation of transcription, translation and fibroblast proliferation, while the upregulated DEG were mainly enriched in protein ubiquitination and ubiquitin-dependent protein catabolic process. The KEGG pathway analysis indicated that the upregulated common DEG and downregulated common DEG were both enriched in PI3K/Akt signaling pathway, cancer pathways and transcriptional misregulation in cancer. There were 8 common hub genes shared by the 2 methods among the top 10 genes ranked by MCC and Degree methods, including 6 downregulated common DEG (TP53, MYC, ATM, FYN, PTPRC and ATRX) and 2 upregulated common DEG (VEGFA and FOXO3). These above 8 common hub genes were mainly involved in PI3K/Akt signaling pathway, cell cycle and cancer transcriptional regulation signaling pathways. RT-qPCR detection of clinical peripheral blood samples showed that the relative expression levels of mRNA in 6 downregulated common DEG of PMF patients were lower compared with those in controls, while the differences were not statistically significant (all P > 0.05); the relative expression levels of mRNA in 2 upregulated common DEG of PMF patients were higher compared with those in controls, and the differences were statistically significant ( U value was 33.00, 36.00, respectively; P value was 0.021, 0.033, respectively). Conclusions:Bioinformatics and clinical sample verification show that VEGFA and FOXO3 are up-regulated in PMF patients, which are mainly involved in the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway, cell cycle and cancer transcriptional regulation signaling pathway. Both genes may be related to the development of PMF and may become potential therapeutic targets.

Objective:To explore the effect of supportive-expressive group psychological intervention on the fear of recurrence in cancer patients receiving radiotherapy.Methods:From September 2022 to February 2023, convenience sampling was used to select 72 tumor inpatients from Shanghai Proton and Heavy Ion Center. According to the random number table method, patients were divided into an intervention group and a control group, with 36 cases in each group. The control group received routine nursing, while the intervention group carried out supportive-expressive group psychological intervention. The fear of recurrence, meaning in life, and perceived social support scores of two groups of patients before and after intervention were compared using the Fear of Progression Questionnaire-Short Form (FoP-Q-SF), Cancer-Meaning in Life Scale (C-MiLS), and Perceived Social Support Scale (PSSS) .Results:A total of 7 cases were lost, with 33 cases in the intervention group and 32 cases in the control group completing the study. Before intervention, there was no statistically significant difference in the general information, fear of recurrence, meaning in life, and perceived social support scores between the two groups of patients ( P>0.05). After supportive-expressive group psychological intervention, the total score of cancer recurrence fear, physical health dimension, and social family dimension scores of the intervention group were (30.42±8.31), (15.58±4.12), and (14.82±4.83), respectively, which were lower than the control group's (36.19±5.64), (18.84±3.48), and (17.09±3.27), and the differences were statistically significant ( t=-3.260, -3.446, and -2.216; P<0.05). After intervention, the total score of the intervention group's meaning in life was (63.42±6.37), which was higher than the control group's (54.91±6.53), and the difference was statistically significant ( t=5.325, P<0.05). After intervention, the perceived social support score of the intervention group was (67.64±7.93), which was higher than the control group's (62.38±10.25), and the difference was statistically significant ( t=2.318, P<0.05). After intervention, the level of fear of recurrence in the intervention group was lower than that before intervention, and the level of meaning in life and perceived social support were higher than those before intervention, with statistical differences ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:Support-expressive group psychological intervention can help cancer patients deal with survival, emotional, and interpersonal issues they face, reduce their fear of recurrence, improve their meaning in life, and perceived social support.

Pulmonary blast injury has become the main type of trauma in modern warfare, characterized by externally mild injuries but internally severe injuries, rapid disease progression, and a high rate of early death. The injury is complicated in clinical practice, often with multiple and compound injuries. Currently, there is a lack of effective protective materials, accurate injury detection instrument and portable monitoring and transportation equipment, standardized clinical treatment guidelines in various medical centers, and evidence-based guidelines at home and abroad, resulting in a high mortality in clinlcal practice. Therefore, the Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association and the Editorial Committee of Chinese Journal of Trauma organized military and civilian experts in related fields such as thoracic surgery and traumatic surgery to jointly develop the Clinical treatment guideline for pulmonary blast injury ( version 2023) by combining evidence for effectiveness and clinical first-line treatment experience. This guideline provided 16 recommended opinions surrounding definition, characteristics, pre-hospital diagnosis and treatment, and in-hospital treatment of pulmonary blast injury, hoping to provide a basis for the clinical treatment in hospitals at different levels.

Objective? To investigate the malnutrition status of cancer patients undergoing radiotherapy, and to provide research basis for later nutrition intervention. Methods? Using convenient sampling method, 380 patients with cancer treated by radiotherapy in Shanghai and Zhejiang provincial ClassⅢ Grade A hospitals from February to November 2018 were selected as the research subjects. The incidence of malnutrition, laboratory indicators on admission and discharge, and the incidence of significant weight loss during hospitalization were investigated. Malnutrition was assessed by Patient-Generated Subjective Global Assessment Scale (PG-SGA). Results? Among 380 cancer patients receiving radiotherapy, 48.9% (186/380) suffered from or suspected malnutrition at admission, of which 7.6% (29/380) suffered from severe malnutrition. At discharge, 64.2% (244/380) of radiotherapy patients developed or suspected malnutrition, of which 18.9% (72/380) suffered from severe malnutrition. In addition, 56.3% (214/380) patients lost weight during radiotherapy, and 12.4% (47/380) patients showed significant weight loss. Compared with that at admission, the levels of serum albumin and hemoglobin decreased significantly (P<0.05). Conclusions The incidence of malnutrition is high in cancer patients during radiotherapy. Early nutritional assessment should be given at admission and early nutritional intervention should be given to malnutrition patients.
