Objective:
To examine the relationship between self-management behaviors and time perspective among patients with comorbid diabetes, so as to provide the evidence for improving self-management behaviors among patients with comorbid diabetes.
Methods:
The patients with comorbid diabetes who were registered in the chronic disease health management system of Minhang District, Shanghai Municipality in 2021, followed up regularly, and lived in Meilong Town were recruited. Demographic information and family history of diabetes were collected through questionnaire surveys. Time perspective and self-management behaviors were assessed using the Zimbardo Time Perspective Inventory and Diabetes Self-Management Behavior Scale, respectively. The relationship between self-management behaviors and time perspective was analyzed using a multivariable ordinal logistic regression model.
Results:
A total of 907 patients with comorbid diabetes were enrolled, including 472 males (52.04%) and 435 females (47.96%). There were 652 cases aged 65 years and above, accounting for 71.89%. In terms of the types of time perspective, 280 patients were future-oriented (30.87%), 236 were balanced (26.02%), 162 were sensation-seeking (17.86%), 123 were fatalistic (13.56%), and 106 were negative (11.69%). In terms of the self-management behaviors, 46 patients were good (5.07%), 643 were moderate (70.89%), and 218 were poor (24.04%). Multivariable ordinal logistic regression analysis showed that after adjusting for age, gender, educational level, marital status, occupation status, monthly income, and family history of diabetes, the patients with comorbid diabetes who had a future-oriented time perspective had better self-management behaviors (OR=1.874, 95%CI: 1.204-2.915).
Conclusion
The self-management behaviors among patients with comorbid diabetes are moderate to poor, and patients with a future-oriented time perspective can better engage in self-management behaviors.

Acute lung injury (ALI) refers to the rapid onset of dyspnea, hypoxemia, and diffuse alveolar damage induced by various direct and indirect injurious factors, representing one of the clinically common diseases with a high mortality rate. However, there is currently a lack of specific therapeutic interventions targeting their underlying pathological mechanisms. Western medical treatment primarily relies on supportive care, and the existing pharmacological agents for ALI are predominantly corticosteroids, which, while efficacious, often accompany severe adverse effects. Recent research has revealed that numerous active components in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) exhibit remarkable efficacy in the prevention and treatment of ALI, providing new insights into the therapeutic approaches for ALI. In this article, the pathological mechanisms of ALI and the roles and mechanisms of active components from TCM in the prevention and treatment of ALI were reviewed, aiming to provide a theoretical basis for the development of new drugs for the prevention and treatment of ALI.

Objective:
To investigate the trajectories of fasting blood glucose fluctuations and their influencing factors among patients with comorbidity of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), so as to provide the basis for strengthening blood glucose management in this population.
Methods:
In October 2023, data of patients diagnosed with comorbid T2DM from January to October 2021, including demographic information, lifestyle, health status and fasting blood glucose were collected through the chronic disease health management system of Minhang District, Shanghai Municipality. Fasting blood glucose fluctuation trajectories were analyzed by group-based trajectory model established based on fasting blood glucose values from January 2021 to October 2023. Influencing factors of fasting blood glucose fluctuation trajectories among patients with comorbidity of T2DM were analyzed using a multinomial logistic regression model.
Results:
A total of 907 patients with comorbidity of T2DM were enrolled, including 472 males (52.04%) and 435 females (47.96%). There were 652 cases aged ≥65 years, accounting for 71.89%. The group-based trajectory model analysis identified three trajectory groups: a low-level stable group (492 cases, 54.24%), a medium-level stable group (287 cases, 31.64%), and a high-level decreasing group (128 cases, 14.11%). Multinomial logistic regression analysis showed that, compared with the low-level stable group, patients with comorbidity of T2DM who had an education level of junior high school or below (OR=1.420, 95%CI: 1.011-1.995) or college degree or above (OR=2.109, 95%CI: 1.249-3.560), as well as those who engaged in regular exercise (OR=1.387, 95%CI: 1.017-1.893), were more likely to be in the medium-level stable group. Patients with comorbidity of T2DM who were overweight or obese (OR=1.675, 95%CI: 1.116-2.513) or had dyslipidemia (OR=3.195, 95%CI: 1.642-6.216) were more likely to be in the high-level decreasing group.
Conclusions
From January 2021 to October 2023, the fasting blood glucose levels of patients with comorbidity of T2DM exhibited three fluctuating trajectories: low-level stability, medium-level stability, and high-level decline. Compared with the low-level stable group, the medium-level stable group was mainly influenced by educational level and regular exercise. The high-level decline group was primarily affected by overweight/obesity and dyslipidemia.

Objective:
To explore the association between waist circumference and beverage consumption behaviors among junior high school students, so as to provide a theoretical basis for improving their nutritional status.
Methods:
Using a multi stage cluster random sampling method, 1 611 junior high school students aged 13-15 years from Yushan, Yanshan, Yiyang, and Wannian counties in Shangrao City, Jiangxi Province, were selected for a survey in September 2021 through questionnaires and waist circumference measurements. Stratified analyses were conducted by sex, t-test and analysis of variance (ANOVA) were used to compare waist circumference across groups, and analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) was applied to examine the associations between different types of beverage consumption and waist circumference.
Results:
Boarding students had significantly greater average waist circumference than day students[boys:(71.86±9.24, 69.69±12.19)cm;girls:(66.53±13.30, 64.63±11.90)cm; t =2.69, 2.08, both P < 0.05 ]. Among boys, waist circumference differed significantly by vigorous physical[vigorous physical:(69.71±9.53)cm; non vigorous exercise:(71.53±12.99)cm]( t=-2.31, P <0.05). Boys waist circumference also differed significantly by consumption frequency (high and medium,low,none) of milk containing beverages[(71.83±7.40, 69.92±9.98, 72.29±13.90)cm], functional beverages[( 73.36± 11.87, 65.97±10.46, 70.71±10.55)cm] and purified water beverages[(69.36±10.87, 71.93±12.15, 71.50±10.09)cm]( F =4.06, 5.93, 4.85, all P <0.05). Girls waist circumference also differed significantly by consumption frequency (high and medium,low,none) of milk containing beverages[(68.81±5.55, 66.59±13.02, 65.36±11.69)cm, F=9.67, P <0.01]. After controlling for the confounding variables, ANCOVA results indicated that the consumption of milk containing beverages, functional beverages and Purified water beverages were significantly associated with waist circumference of boys ( F =3.79, 5.26, 5.08, all P < 0.05 ). Milk containing beverages were significantly associated with waist circumference of girls ( F=4.17, P <0.05).
Conclusion
The consumption frequency of milk containing beverages and functional beverages by junior high school students is positively correlated with their waist circumference.

Hip fracture in the elderly is characterized by high incidence, high disability rate, and high mortality and has been recognized as a public health issue threatening their health. Surgery is the preferred choice for the treatment of elderly patients with hip fracture. However, lower extremity deep venous thrombosis (DVT) has an extremely high incidence rate during the perioperative period, and may significantly increase the risk of patients′ death once it progresses to pulmonary embolism. In response to this issue, the clinical guidelines and expert consensuses all emphasize active application of comprehensive preventive measures, including basic prevention, physical prevention, and pharmacological prevention. In this prevention system, basic prevention is the basis of physical and pharmacological prevention. However,there is a lack of unified and definite recommendations for basic preventive measures in clinical practice. To this end, the Orthopedic Nursing Professional Committee of the Chinese Nursing Association and Nursing Department of the Orthopedic Branch of the China International Exchange and Promotive Association for Medical and Health Care organized relevant nursing experts to formulate Expert consensus on perioperative basic prevention for lower extremity deep venous thrombosis in elderly patients with hip fracture ( version 2024) . A total of 10 recommendations were proposed, aiming to standardize the basic preventive measures for lower extremity DVT in elderly patients with hip fractures during the perioperative period and promote their subsequent rehabilitation.

Objective:To summarize the distributional characteristics of postoperative occurrence of multi-drug resistant organism (MDRO) infections and their risk factors in simultaneous pancreas-kidney transplantation (SPK) recipients and examine the impact of MDRO infections on the survival of SPK recipients.Method:From January 2016 to December 2022, the relevant clinical data were retrospectively reviewed for 218 SPK recipients. The source of donor-recipient specimens and the composition percentage of MDRO pathogens were examined. According to whether or not MDRO infection occurred post-transplantation, they were assigned into two groups of MDRO (98 cases) and non-MDRO (120 cases). The clinical data of two groups of donors and recipients were analyzed. And the risk factors for an onset of MDRO infection were examined by binary Logistic regression. The survival rate of two recipient groups was compared by Kaplan-Meier method.Result:A total of 98/218 recipients (45%) developed MDRO infections. And 46 (46.9%) of sputum and 34 (34.7%) of urine were cultured positively and 49 (50%) pathogens expressed extended spectrum beta-lactamase. There were pneumonia (46 cases, 46.9%), urinary tract infections (34 cases, 34.7%), abdominal infections (16 cases, 16.3%) and bloodstream infections (2 cases, 2.0%). Univariate regression analysis revealed that length of renal failure ( P=0.037), length of hospitalization ( P<0.001), length of antibiotic use ( P<0.001), novel antibiotics ( P=0.014), albumin ( P<0.001) and leukocyte count ( P<0.001) were risk factors for an onset of MDRO infections. The results of multifactorial regression indicated that low albumin ( OR=0.855, 95% CI: 0.790~0.925, P<0.001) and leukopenia ( OR=0.656, 95% CI: 0.550~0.783, P<0.001) were independent risk factors for an onset of MDRO infections. The survival rates of recipients in MDRO group at Year 1/3 post-operation were 92.9% (91/98) and 89.8% (88/98). And the survival rate of recipients in non-MDRO group was 96.7% (116/120) at Year 1/3 post-operation. Inter-group difference was not statistically significant in 1-year survival rate of two recipient groups ( P=0.201); statistically significant inter-group difference in 3-year survival rate between two recipient groups ( P=0.041) . Conclusion:Low albumin and leukopenia are risk factors for MDRO infection. Infection with MDRO has some impact on the survival of recipients.

Objective:To explore the clinical changes in levels of the new clinical marker serum hepatitis B virus (HBV) pregenomic RNA (pgRNA) in patients with chronic hepatitis B (CHB) with long-term antiviral therapy.Methods:100 CHB cases who were initially treated with nucleos(t)ide analogues (NAs) at Peking University First Hospital were included. The levels of alanine aminotransferase (ALT), HBV DNA, hepatitis B e-antigen (HBeAg), and hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) during the follow-up period were measured. The TaqMan-based real-time quantitative PCR method was used to detect serum HBV pgRNA levels. The independent sample t-test and Mann-Whitney U test were used to compare continuous variables between groups, while Pearson's χ2 test and Fisher's exact test were used to compare categorical variables. Results:HBV pgRNA levels decreased significantly in patients who developed virological responses at 48 weeks ( n = 54) during subsequent treatment compared to those who did not ( n = 46). The HBV pgRNA level was lower in HBeAg-positive patients than in HBeAg-negative patients ( P < 0.05 or P < 0.01). Patients with higher HBV DNA and HBeAg-positivity levels at baseline had a higher HBV pgRNA level following antiviral therapy. There was no statistically significant difference in HBV pgRNA levels in patients with different HBV pgRNA levels at baseline after antiviral therapy. There was no correlation between serum HBV pgRNA and HBsAg at baseline, but there was a correlation after long-term antiviral therapy, while there was a weak correlation between HBV pgRNA and HBsAg at the fifth and ninth years of antiviral therapy ( r = 0.262, P = 0.031; r = 0.288, P = 0.008). Conclusion:HBV pgRNA levels were higher with higher HBV activity in CHB patients with long-term antiviral therapy.

The regulation of the cell cycle is essential for maintaining normal cellular function,especially in the development of diseases such as lung cancer.The cell cycle consists of four major phases(G1,S,G2 and M phases),which are characterized by a series of precise molecular events to ensure proper cell proliferation and division.In lung cancer cells,cell cycle dysregulation can lead to disordered proliferation and increased invasiveness of cancer cells.G2 and S-phase expressed 1(GTSE1)is a regulatory protein found in the cytoplasm of the cell,which plays a key role in the cell cycle distribution of a wide range of cancer cells and is involved in life processes such as cell proliferation and apoptosis.GTSE1 affects cell cycle progres-sion by interacting with cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 1A(p21)and maintaining the stability of p21,which in turn inhibits the activity of cyclin-dependent kinase 1/2(CDK1/2).In addition,GTSE1 is also involved in the regulation of tumor protein 53(p53)signaling pathway.With the assistance of mouse double minute 2 homolog(MDM2),GTSE1 is able to transport p53 from the nucleus to the cytoplasm and promote its ubiquitination and degradation,thus affecting cell cycle and cell death-related signaling pathways.This paper reviews the expression of GTSE1 in lung cancer cells and its effects on lung cancer,as well as its potential mechanisms involved in cell cycle regulation.
