{L-End}Objective To explore the chain mediating effect of team psychological safety atmosphere and professional calling in the relationship between humble leadership and voice behavior. {L-End}Methods A total of 812 nurses from five medical institutions in Guangdong Province were selected as the research subjects using the convenience sampling method. The Team Psychological Safety Atmosphere Scale, the Professional Calling Scale, the Hospital Version of Humble Leadership Scale and the Voice Behavior Scale were used to investigate the perceived team psychological safety atmosphere and sense of professional calling, the perceived humble leadership style and voice behavior of the nurses. {L-End}Results The score of team psychological safety atmosphere, professional calling, humble leadership, and voice behavior of 812 nurses was (58.0±7.6), (44.6±8.0), (50.4±9.2) and (37.0±5.9), respectively, with the scoring rate of 72.5%, 74.3%, 80.0%, and 74.0%, respectively. Bootstrap analysis showed that humble leadership could positively influence voice behavior [standardized effect value (β)=0.28, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.20-0.35]. Humble leadership could influence voice behavior through the separate mediating effects of team psychological safety atmosphere (β=0.13, 95%CI 0.09-0.18), professional calling (β=0.07, 95%CI 0.04-0.11), and the chain mediating effect of team psychological safety atmosphere and professional calling(β=0.06, 95%CI 0.04-0.08). {L-End}Conclusion The voice behavior of clinical nurses is at a moderately high level. Humble leadership can directly influence voice behavior and can influence voice behavior through the mediating effects of team psychological safety atmosphere and professional calling. Nursing managers can inspire the work passion of clinical nurses by changing their own leadership style and creating a good atmosphere for voicing opinions.

Objective:To explore the endoscopic features of early gastric cancer (EGC) related to non-curative endoscopic resection, and to construct an assessment model to quantify the risk of non-curative resection.Methods:From August 2006 to October 2019, 378 lesions that underwent endoscopic resection and were diagnosed pathological as EGC in the Department of Gastroenterology, Peking Union Medical College Hospital were included in this case-control study.Seventy-eight (20.6%) non-curative resection lesions were included in the observation group, and 234 lesions which selected from 300 lesions of curative resection were included in the control group according to the difference of operation year ±1 with the observation group, and the ratio of 1∶3 of the observation group to the control group. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis were performed to explore the risk factors for non-curative resection. The independent risk factor with the minimum β coefficient was assigned 1 point, and the remaining factors were scored according to the ratio of their β coefficient to the minimum. A predictive model was established to analyze the 378 lesions.The non-curative resection rates of lesions of different scores were calculated. Results:Univariate analysis showed that the lesion diameter, the location, redness, ulcer or ulcer scar, fold interruption, fold entanglement, and invasion depth observed with endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) were associated with non-curative resection of EGC lesions ( P<0.05), and contact or spontaneous bleeding may be associated with non-curative resection ( P=0.068). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that submucosal involvement (VS confined to the mucosa: β=0.901, P=0.011, OR=2.46, 95% CI: 1.23-4.92), lesion diameter of 3-<5 cm (VS <3 cm: β=0.723, P=0.038, OR=2.06, 95% CI: 1.04-4.09), lesion diameter of ≥5 cm (VS <3 cm: β=2.078, P=0.003, OR=7.99, 95% CI: 2.02-31.66), location in the upper 1/3 of the stomach (VS lower 1/3: β=1.540, P<0.001, OR=4.66, 95% CI: 2.30-9.45), and fold interruption ( β=2.287, P=0.008, OR=1.93, 95% CI: 0.95-3.93) were independent risk factors for non-curative resection of EGC lesions. The factor of lesion diameter of 3-<5 cm and submucosal involvement were assigned 1 point respectively, location in the upper 1/3 of the stomach was assigned 2 points, diameter of ≥5 cm and fold interruption were assigned 3 points respectively, and other factors were assigned 0 point. Then the analysis of 378 lesions showed that the probability of non-curative resection at ≥2 points was 41.9% (37/93), 4 times as much as that at 0 [11.5% (25/217)]. Conclusion:EGC lesions with diameter ≥3 cm, located in the upper 1/3 of the stomach, interrupted folds or submucosal involvement are highly related to non-curative resection. The predictive model based on these factors achieves satisfactory efficacy, but it still needs further validation in larger cohorts.

Objective:
To study the effects of endoscopic submucosal dissection(ESD) on long-term quality of life (QOL) and gastric function of patients with distal early gastric cancer (EGC), compared with those of surgery.
Methods:
Patients with EGC who received ESD or surgical resection in Peking Union Medical College Hospital over 1 year ago were selected to be followed up. QLQ-C30, SF-36, EQ-5D and dyspeptic symptom rating scale were used to evaluate QOL. Five-hour gastric emptying rate was used to evaluate distal gastric function. Electronic gastroscopy was used to observe whether the anastomotic stoma was stenotic. According to the age at resection, 1 to 1 matching was performed between the distal 1/3 gastric ESD (EP) group and the distal subtotal gastrectomy (SP) group, and then the QOL and gastric function between the two groups were compared.
Results:
Twenty-five patients were included in group EP and group SP respectively. According to QLQ-C30, the scores of cognitive function were 83.3 (83.3, 83.3) in group EP and 83.3 (83.3, 100.0) in group SP (

Objective To investigate the effect of minocycline(Mino)on the polarization of types M1/M2 microglia(pro-and anti-inflammatory type)in the spinal dorsal horn of rats with neuropathic pain(NP)induced by spinal nerve ligation(SNL)and its underlying mechanism.Methods A total of 36 adult male SD rats were randomly stratified into Sham-operation(Sham)group,SNL group and Mino+SNL group by stratified random sampling based on body weight.Mechanical pain threshold and cold nociceptive thresholds of rat hind paw were measured in 1 d before and 14 d after modelling.Spinal cord tissue at the lumbar 5(L5)segment was taken at 14 d after modelling,and the total number of microglia as well as the numbers of M1 and M2 microglia in the spinal dorsal horn were measured with immunohistochemistry and stereology.With aid of bioinformatics techniques,the core target in the spinal cord,Cst7,was selected.Then,the protein levels of microglia marker Iba-1,M1 microglia marker iNOS,M2 microglia marker CD206,Cst7 encoded protein cystatin F(CF)and pathway CatS/CX3CL1/CX3CR1 were detected with Western blotting.The expression levels of TNF-α,IL-6 and IL-10 in the spinal cord tissues were measured with ELISA.Results The mechanical pain and cold nociceptive thresholds were both significantly higher in the M+SNL group than the SNL group at 7~14 d after modelling(P<0.01).The total number of microglia and the numbers of M1/M2 microglia in the spinal dorsal horn as well as the expression levels of CatS,CX3CL1,CX3CR1,TNF-α,IL-6,and IL-10 in the spinal cord tissues were obviously increased,and the expression level of CF was notably decreased in the SNL model group than the Sham group(P<0.01).While,Mino treatment remarkably reversed above phenomena,with decreased total number of microglia and number of M1 microglia as well as expression levels of CatS,CX3CL1,CX3CR1,TNF-α and IL-6,and increased number of M2 microglia as well as CF and IL-10 levels when compared with the SNL group(P<0.05).Conclusion Mino alleviates SNL induced neuropathic pain,probably through up-regulating CF in the microglia,and thus inhibiting the CatS/CX3CL1/CX3CR1 signaling pathway,promoting the conversion of microglia from type M1 to M2 to balance the imbalance in the M1/M2 polarization,and thus reducing neuroinflammation.

ObjectiveTo observe the clinical effect of modified Huanglian Wendantang on cardiovascular risk factors in patients with metabolic syndrome under the guidance of treating disease before its onset. MethodsA total of 82 patients with metabolic syndrome treated in the First Affiliated Hospital of Heilongjiang University of Chinese Medicine from July 2023 to July 2024 were selected and allocated into an observation group (41 cases) and a control group (41 cases) by the random number table method. The control group received routine treatment, and the observation group was treated with modified Huanglian Wendantang on the basis of routine treatment. Both groups were treated for 8 weeks. The therapeutic effects on TCM symptoms after treatment in the two groups were evaluated. The levels of obesity degree indicators, blood pressure indicators, glucose and lipid metabolism indicators, inflammatory factors, and vascular endothelial function indicators before and after treatment in the two groups were measured, and the treatment safety was evaluated. ResultsAfter treatment, the total response rate of TCM symptoms in the observation group was 97.56% (40/41), which was higher than that (87.80%, 36/41) in the control group (χ2=5.205, P<0.05). After treatment, both groups showed declines (P<0.05) in systolic blood pressure (SBD), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), triglyceride (TG), total cholesterol (TC), low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), fasting blood glucose, 2-hour postprandial blood glucose (2 h PG), glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c), fasting insulin (FINS), Homeostatic Model Assessment for Insulin Resistance (HOMA-IR), body mass index (BMI), waist circumference (WC), waist-to-hip ratio (WHR), leptin (LEP), interleukin-6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), endothelin-1 (ET-1), and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS). Moreover, the declines in the observation group were more obvious than those in the control group (P<0.05, P<0.01). After treatment, both groups showed elevated levels of high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), adiponectin (ADP), nitric oxide (NO), and endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) (P<0.05), and the above indexes in the observation group were higher than those in the control group (P<0.01). ConclusionUnder the guidance of the thought of treating disease before its onset, modified Huanglian Wendantang was used to treat patients with metabolic syndrome. The decoction improved the clinical efficacy by ameliorating IR to improve insulin sensitivity, reducing inflammation, and protecting the vascular endothelial function. It inhibits cardiovascular risk factors without inducing adverse reactions, being worthy of clinical application and promotion.
