Objective:To study the effect of changing operator on the detection rate of colorectal polyps during surgery in patients who had been diagnosed with colorectal polyps by electronic colonoscopy for the first time.Methods:From June 2016 to June 2019, the patients who had been diagnosed with colorectal polyps by electronic colonoscopy for the first time, they were performed by electronic colonoscopy for the second time after 3 months by 5 doctors in the No.946 Hospital of PLA who had engaged in endoscopic work longer and been with rich experience. The results of the electronic colonoscopy were recorded and compared.Results:Fived hundred and seventy-six patients were found have colorectal polyps through electronic colonoscopy for the first time. Among them, 423 patients came to the hospital within 3 months and were eligibled for the research. The detection rate of newly detected polyps by the same operator was 22.7%(96/423), after changing the operator, the detection rate became 24.3% (103/423), but there was no significant difference ( P>0.05). The detection rates of newly detected polyps were respectively 20.8% (220/1 059) and 25.9%(294/1 133), the proportion of newly detected polyps with diameter ≤ 5 mm was respectively 73.6%(162/220) and 82.0%(241/294), the ratio of flat polyps to total newly detected polyps was 71.8%(158/220) and 79.9%(235/294), and there were significant differences ( P<0.05). The proportion of polyps in sigmoid colon was respectively 35.0% (77/220) and 39.1%(115/294), and there was no significant difference ( P>0.05). Conclusions:For patients with colorectal polyps detected by electronic colonoscopy, the operator should be changed during surgery, so that more missed polyps can be detected during surgery, especially flat polyps with diameter ≤ 5 mm. The operator should be changed to improve the detection rate and reduce the probability of missed diagnosis.

Objective To explore the current situation and influencing factors that affect stroke specialist nurses in Henan Province and provide a reference for targeted interventions.Methods A total of 140 stroke specialist nurses from over 103 general hospitals in Henan Province were selected to participate the study with the convenience sampling method,between March and November 2022.General data questionnaire and the core competence evaluation questionnaire of stroke specialist nurses in Henan Province were employed for the investigation.Influencing factors were analysed by binary Logistic regression.Results A total of 134 specialist nurses responded to the survey.The findings revealed that the total score of core competence in the stroke specialist nurses was 279.5(257.0,306.0).Among the dimensions of core competence,the clinical thinking ability scored the highest at 4.4(4.0,4.9),while professional development ability scored the lowest at 3.7(3.4,4.0).Cluster analysis categorised that the scores＜250 were of a low score group(n=26)and those≥250 were of a high score group(n=108).Binary Logistic regression analysis indicated that education level,years working as a stroke specialist nurse,and the working experience in the stoke fast track team of A&E were the factors that influenced the core competence of the stroke specialist nurses in Henan Province(all P＜0.05).Conclusions This study has found that the core competence of stroke specialist nurses in Henan Province is at an acceptable level.Education,years working as a stroke specialist nurse and the working experience in the fast track team of A&E are the primary factors which influence core competence.Nursing managers should devise supportive programs to target the influencing factors and to improve the core competence of the stroke specialist nurses.

Objective:To explore the application effect of time-sensitive incentive nursing in patients with multiple myeloma (MM) .Methods:From January 2019 to May 2021, the convenient sampling method was used to select 86 MM patients admitted to Henan Provincial People's Hospital as the research objects. According to the time of admission, 43 patients admitted from January 2019 to January 2020 were divided into the control group and 43 patients admitted from February 2020 to May 2021 were divided into the study group. The control group was given routine nursing, while the study group was given time-sensitive incentive nursing based on the control group. The psychological resilience and quality of life of the two groups before and after intervention were compared, and the occurrence of adverse reactions between the two groups during intervention was statistically analyzed.Results:After the intervention, the dimension scores of psychological resilience scale and the dimension scores of quality of life scale in the study group were higher than those in the control group, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). The incidence of gastrointestinal reactions in the study group was lower than that in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:Time-sensitive incentive nursing can improve the psychological resilience of MM patients, reduce the occurrence of gastrointestinal reactions caused by chemotherapy and improve the quality of life.

Background and objective Anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) is one of the major driver genes of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Several studies have shown that the e?cacy of pemetrexed in ALK-positive lung cancer is controversial. The aim of this study is to explore the e?cacy of pemetrexed-based chemotherapy in patients with ALK-positive and negative lung adenocarcinoma. Methods The clinical data of 98 cases of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene (KRAS), V-rafmurine sarcoma viral oncogene homolog B1 (BRAF)-negative patients with advanced lung adenocarcinoma patients who diagnosed by histopathology from January 2015 to April 2016 in the First A?liated Hos-pital of Zhengzhou University were collected. The relationships between ALK gene status, clinical characteristics and response and progression-free survival (PFS) were analyzed. Results All of the 98 patients' ALK status were determined. ALK gene fracture fusion occured in 34 cases (34.7%), no fracture fusion in 64 cases (65.3%). All patients underwent first-line peme-trexed and platinum-based chemotherapy, the objective response rate (ORR) was 21.4% and the disease control rate (DCR) was 84.7%. The ORR and DCR of patients with ALK fracture fusion were higher than those without fracture fusion (41.2% vs 10.9%, χ2=23.389, P<0.001; 91.2% vs 81.3%, χ2=4.153, P=0.042), the difference was statistically significant. ALK gene status was not related to age, gender, smoking history and clinical stage. The median PFS of ALK-positive lung adenocarcinoma was 7.1 months (95%CI: 6.1-8.1) and negative was 4.7 months (95%CI: 3.818-5.582), and the difference was statistically significant (χ2=13.269, P<0.001). Cox multivariate analysis indicates that PFS of pemetrexed combined with platinum chemotherapy was independent of gender, age, smoking, staging and platinum. ALK gene fracture fusion is an independent factor affecting PFS (HR=0.392, 95%CI: 0.243-0.634, P<0.001). Conclusion ALK-positive lung adenocarcinoma patients with first-line peme-trexed-based chemotherapy have greater clinical benefit than ALK-negative patients.

Background Type 2 diabetes mellitus is one of the most prevalent diseases,which imposes a heavy burden on patients' families and the society.Sleep disorders are recognized as risk factors for the development of diabetes,which may affect the onset and development of diabetes through neuro-endocrino-metabolic pathways,so identifying the factors responsible for the sleep quality of diabetic patients is of great importance in improving their sleep quality.Objective To investigate the relationship among fear of disease progression,executive function and sleep quality in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus,so as to provide references for improvement of sleep quality in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.Methods A sample of 197 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus who were admitted to the Endocrinology Department of the Second Affiliated Hospital of the Air Force Military Medical University from January to May 2023 and met the criteria defined in the Guideline for the Prevention and Treatment of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus in China(2020 edition)were consecutively selected.All subjects were assessed using Fear of Progression Questionnaire-Short Form(FoP-Q-SF),Behavior Rating Inventory of Executive Function-Adult version(BRIEF-A)and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index(PSQI).Then the Process macro for SPSS(Model 4)and Bootstrap technique were applied to examine the mediating effect of executive function on the relationship between fear of disease progression and sleep quality in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.Results ①75 patients(38.07%)with type 2 diabetes mellitus were found to have sleep problems.②PSQI score in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus was positively correlated with FoP-Q-SF score and BRIEF-A score(r=0.159,0.287,P<0.01).③Executive function mediated the relationship between fear of disease progression and sleep quality,the indirect value was 0.076(95%CI:0.022～0.146),accounting for 39.58%of the total effect.Conclusion Sleep disorders are common in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus,and executive function may play a medicating role in the relationship between fear of disease progression and sleep quality.

Objective:To investigate the risk factors of type 1 gastric neuroendocrine tumor (g-NET) in patients with autoimmune gastritis(AIG).Methods:From September 1, 2016 to February 28, 2022, 123 patients with AIG visited the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University were retrospectively enrolled, including 37 cases with type 1 g-NET and 86 cases without type 1g-NET. The clinical data, serological indicators, and endoscopic manifestation of all the patients were analyzed, including the age at the time of AIG diagnosis (hereinafter referred to as the age at diagnosis), levels of gastrin 17 and pepsinogen Ⅰ (PGⅠ), presence or absence of gastric fundus and gastric body polyps, etc. The independent risk factors of type 1 g-NET in AIG patients were analyzed by univariate and multivariate logistic regression. The receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) was plotted to analyze the optimal cut-off value, sensitivity and specificity of the independent risk factors in predicting type 1 g-NET in AIG patients. Independent sample t test, Mann-Whitney U test and chi-square test were used for statistical analysis. Results:Compared with those of the AIG patients without type 1 g-NET, the age at diagnosis of AIG patients with type 1 g-NET was younger ((57.49±11.16) years old vs. (48.49±10.96) years old), the level of gastrin 17 was higher (200.21 ng/L, 121.85 ng/L to 244.40 ng/L vs. 244.40 ng/L, 182.50 ng/L to 248.02 ng/L), and the proportion of patients with gastric fundus and gastric body polyps was higher(18.6%, 16/86 vs. 56.8%, 21/37), and the differences were statistically significant( t=-4.13, Z=-3.06, χ2=17.90; P<0.001, =0.002 and <0.001). The results of univariate logistic analysis showed that the age at diagnosis ( OR=0.931, 95% confidence interval (95% CI)0.895 to 0.967), gastrin 17( OR=1.012, 95% CI 1.005 to 1.019), PGⅠ( OR=0.974, 95% CI 0.950 to 0.998)and gastric fundus and gastric body polyps( OR=5.742, 95% CI 2.461 to 13.399)were the influencing factors of type 1 g-NET in AIG patients ( P<0.001, =0.001, =0.033 and <0.001). The results of multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated that the age at diagnosis( OR=0.921, 95% CI 0.881 to 0.964), gastrin 17( OR=1.011, 95% CI 1.001 to 1.020), gastric fundus and gastric body polyps( OR=7.696, 95% CI 2.710 to 21.857)were the independent risk factors of type 1 g-NET in AIG patients ( P<0.001, =0.024 and <0.001). The results of ROC analysis demonstrated that the optimal cut-off values for the age at diagnosis and gastrin 17 in predicting type 1 g-NET were 56.50 years old and 206.40 ng/L, respectively; with sensitivity of 83.8% and 70.3%, respectively, and specificity of 54.7% for both ( P<0.001 and=0.003). Conclusion:The age at diagnosis< 56.50 years old, gastrin 17>206.40 ng/L and the presence of gastric fundus and gastric body polyps are independent risk factors of type 1 g-NET in AIG patients.

Objective:To investigate the clinical manifestations, endoscopic characteristics, and prognostic factors of patients with colorectal extranodal NK/T cell lymphoma.Methods:The clinical data of 52 patients with colorectal extranodal NK/T cell lymphoma admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from January 2013 to January 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. Their clinical manifestations and endoscopic characteristics were summarized, and the prognostic factors were analyzed by Cox regression model.Results:Among the 52 patients with colorectal extranodal NK/T cell lymphoma, there were 35 males and 17 females, with a male-to-female ratio of 2.06∶1. Among the general symptoms, abdominal pain was the most common (39 cases), and B symptoms occurred in 47 patients, among which fever was the most common lymphoma B symptom (42 cases), and gastrointestinal perforation was the most common complication (18 cases). Forty-three patients underwent colonoscopy, and the main manifestations under endoscopy were the ulceration type (24 cases). The ulcers were irregular at the edges and often covered with moss at the bottom. The median survival time was 4.3 months. Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that hemocytic syndrome ( HR=8.50,95% CI: 1.679-8.328, P=0.001), serum albumin ( HR=3.59,95% CI: 1.017-6.551, P=0.048), and with or without chemotherapy ( HR=0.31, 95% CI: 0.246-1.061, P=0.025) were independent factors influencing the overall survival of patients with colorectal extranodal NK/T cell lymphoma. Conclusions:Colorectal extranodal NK/T cell lymphoma is a rare disease with a very poor prognosis. When patients present with abdominal pain and lymphoma B symptoms, and when ulcers with irregular edges and moss covering the bottom are found under endoscopy, the disease should be considered, and endoscopic biopsy should be taken in time for pathological diagnosis. The prognosis of patients with hemophagocytic syndrome and hypoproteinemia is poor. This disease should be treated with chemotherapy and surgery, and on this basis, hemophagocytic syndrome and hypoproteinemia should be treated to improve the prognosis of patients.

Objective:To investigate the safety and feasibility of endoscopic thyroidectomy by gasless trans subclavian approach (ETGTA) in treatment of papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) .Methods:The clinical data of 148 patients with PTC radical operation admitted to the Department of Thyroid and Breast Surgery, Nanjing Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine Affiliated to Nanjing University of Chinese Medicine from Jul. 2020 to May. 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. They were divided into subclavian approach group (53 cases) and modified miccoli group (95 cases) according to different surgical approaches. The operation time, intraoperative bleeding volume, postoperative drainage flow, postoperative drainage days, postoperative hospital stay, postoperative complications and cosmetic satisfaction were recorded in the 2 groups. Statistical software was used to analyze the results, including t test, Mann-Whitney U test, χ2 test, etc. P<0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results:There were no significant differences in age, sex ratio, maximum diameter, stage, tumor lesion or surgical method between the 2 groups ( P>0.05). The postoperative drainage days increased in the subclavian group than in the modified miccoli group (4.57±2.45 vs. 2.98±1.07) ( P<0.01), but there was no statistical difference in operation time, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative drainage, or postoperative hospital stay between the two groups ( P>0.05). The incidence of swallowing discomfort at 1 month [5.6% (3/53) vs. 18.9% (18/95), P=0.04] and 3 months [0% (0/53) vs. 7.4% (7/95) , P=0.04], anterior cervical area tightness or stiffness at 1 month [0% (0/53) vs. 11.6% (11/95), P=0.01] and 3 months [0% (0/53) vs. 8.4% (8/95), P=0.03] were less than that of the modified miccoli group, and the difference was statistically significant (4.1±0.7 vs. 2.4±0.8) ( P<0.01), and the cosmetic satisfaction of the subclavian approach was higher than that of the modified miccoli group ( P<0.01). There was no significant difference in postoperative temporary recurrent laryngeal nerve injury, postoperative 3d neck pain, postoperative hand-foot numbness or postoperative hematoma between the two groups (all P>0.05) . Conclusion:The radical resection of papillary thyroid carcinoma without inflatable subclavicular approach is safe and feasible, with few postoperative complications and better cosmetic effect, which is worth popularizing.
