Objective To explore the experience of social isolation among caregivers of stroke patients,and to provide corresponding references for the development of targeted intervention strategies.Methods A descriptive qualitative study was used to select 14 caregivers of hospitalized stroke patients attending the Department of Neurology and Neurosurgery of a tertiary-level hospital in Kunming City from September to November 2023 through purposive sampling method,and the data were analyzed using traditional content analysis.Results A total of 3 themes and 10 sub-themes were extracted,including characterization of social alienation(accumulation of negative emotions,limited social contact,dissolution of self-identity),drivers of social alienation(limitations of disease perception,multiple role conflicts,lack of support resources,constraints of caregiving responsibilities),and coping needs for social alienation(craving for informational support,appeal for emotional support,and expectation of policy support).Conclusion Caregivers of stroke patients are socially alienated due to limited social contact,multiple role conflicts,and lack of support resources,etc.Healthcare professionals should conduct regular assessments,provide targeted education and training,and strengthen multidimensional support in order to help them reintegrate into society and improve the overall quality of life of stroke families.

Objective:To analyze the epidemiological and clinical characteristics of Mycoplasma pneumoniae ( Mp) infection among hospitalized children with acute respiratory tract infections (ARTIs) in a single center in Beijing and provide reference for the prevention and treatment of Mp infection. Methods:Nasopharyngeal aspirate (NPA) samples of hospitalized children with ARTIs were collected from Beijing Friendship Hospital during two periods: from April 2018 to March 2019 and from September 2020 to August 2022. qPCR was used to detect Mp nucleic acids, and for Mp-positive samples, the mixed infections with 15 common respiratory viruses were detected. Statistical analysis was conducted using Chi-square test, Fisher′s exact test, and independent samples t-test. Results:From April 2018 to March 2019, 1 572 NPA samples were collected, with 104 positive for Mp (6.62%). From September 2020 to August 2022, 622 samples were collected, with 22 Mp-positive samples (3.54%). There was statistically significant difference in the positive rates between the two time periods ( P<0.05). From April 2018 to March 2019, the positive rate of Mp was higher in children aged ≥5 years than in those <5 years [13.03% (46/353) vs 4.76% (58/1 219), P<0.05]; the positive rates in summer (9.54%, 35/367) and autumn (7.93%, 33/416) were higher than those in spring (3.03%, 11/363) and winter (5.87%, 25/426), with statistically significant differences ( P<0.05); co-infections with other respiratory viruses were detected in 42 out of the 104 Mp-positive cases (40.38%), primarily with human rhinovirus (35.71%, 15/42) or human coronavirus NL63 (19.05%, 8/42). From September 2020 to August 2022, Mp infections mainly occurred in children aged ≥5 years [72.73% (16/22)], and co-infections with other respiratory viruses were detected in four cases (18.18%, 4/22). The Mp-infected children were mainly diagnosed with pneumonia, and there was no significant difference in clinical symptoms between Mp-infected patients with or without viral coinfection. Conclusions:The positive rate of Mp among hospitalized children with ARTIs in Beijing from September 2020 to August 2022 is significantly lower than that observed from April 2018 to March 2019. Mp is an important cause of ARTIs in children, especially in patients aged ≥5 years. Mp infection is often accompanied by viral co-infections, with high incidence in summer and autumn.

Objective:To analyze the effect of joint management of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) between specialty and community under the model of National Diabetes Prevention and Control Center (DPCC).Methods:A total of 2 527 T2DM patients managed by DPCC Pingshan Center of Shenzhen from January 1, 2022 to December 31, 2024 were retrospectively included. After management, the rate of downturn, reexamination rate, blood pressure compliance rate, metabolic indicators (waist circumference, body mass index, fasting blood glucose, glycosylated hemoglobin, blood lipids) and screening rate of chronic complications of diabetes (atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, microvascular disease, diabetic peripheral neuropathy) were analyzed. Those included 2022 ( n=564), 2023 ( n=1 477), and 2024 ( n=2 527). Results:The downturn rate in 2022, 2023 and 2024 increased year by year (22.8% vs 67.2% vs 89.9%, P<0.01), and the review rate (41.1% vs 62.2% vs 52.7%, P<0.01), complication screening rate (51.6% vs 85.3% vs 62.2%, P<0.01), blood pressure compliance rate (53.1% vs 78.0% vs 67.2%, P<0.01), body mass index compliance rate (13.2% vs 17.3% vs 28.6%, P<0.01), fasting blood glucose meeting rate (46.4% vs 60.2% vs 68.5%, P<0.01), glycated hemoglobin meeting rate (58.4% vs 63.2% vs 45.6%, P<0.01) were relatively improved. Waist circumference compliance rate (30.6% vs 27.7% vs 21.6%) and blood lipid compliance rate (33.6% vs 35.5% vs 31.9%) were not significantly improved, and the review rate, blood pressure compliance rate and complication screening rate in 2024 were lower than those in 2023 and higher than those in 2022. Conclusions:The combined management of type 2 diabetes under the DPCC model has significant effects on improving the down-conversion rate, rediagnosis rate, blood pressure compliance rate, metabolic index compliance rate and the screening rate of diabetes-related chronic complications in patients with diabetes. At the same time, it was also found that with the progress of hierarchical diagnosis and treatment, the review rate, complication screening rate, blood pressure, waist circumference, blood lipid and glycosylated hemoglobin reached the standard of patients decreased compared with the previous situation, which needs to be further analyzed and improved.

Objective:To analyze the factors affecting the quality of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) performed by medical staff in hospital and to explore the training methods to enhance their in-hospital emergency response capabilities.Methods:A cross-sectional study was conducted, involving medical staff of intensive care unit (ICU) and general internal medicine wards in China-Japan Friendship Hospital in December 2021. The American Heart Association (AHA) resuscitation quality improvement (RQI) model was used to evaluate the skills of the subjects in performing external chest compressions and bag-mask ventilation on adult and infant simulators. While ICU subjects were undergoing RQI model objective assessment, two instructors also provided subjective scoring for their operations. The study compared the differences in RQI model objective assessment scores between ICU and general internal medicine ward subjects, between doctors and nurses, in the RQI model objective scoring for adult and infant resuscitation, in the scoring differences of different positions for chest compressions, and the differences between traditional subjective scoring and RQI objective scoring when ICU subjects were assessed for compression and ventilation.Results:A total of 75 medical staffs were enrolled, consisting of 50 from the ICU (including 24 doctors and 26 nurses) and 25 from the general internal medicine wards (including 10 doctors and 15 nurses). The ICU medical staff's scores for adult resuscitation skills were significantly higher than those of the general internal medicine ward medical staff [adult compression score: 82.5 (66.0, 96.5) vs. 65.0 (52.5, 74.5), adult ventilation score: 82.0 (68.8, 98.0) vs. 61.0 (48.0, 82.0), both P < 0.01]. The nursing group's compression scores for both adult and infant were significantly higher than those of the doctor group [adult compression score: 77.0 (68.5, 89.5) vs. 63.0 (40.8, 90.3), infant compression score: 54.4±25.1 vs. 41.5±18.5, both P < 0.05]. The compression and ventilation scores for the infant were significantly lower than those for adult resuscitation [compression score: 48 (29, 65) vs. 76 (58, 90), ventilation score: 56 (42, 75) vs. 76 (60, 96), both P < 0.01]. When the rescuer was positioned on the right side of the model, the compression score for the adult significantly increased [79.0 (65.0, 92.0) vs. 65.0 (51.3, 77.0), P < 0.05]. The ICU medical staff's traditional subjective scores of compression and ventilation assessments for adult were significantly higher than the RQI model objective scores [adult compression score: 88.8 (79.4, 92.5) vs. 82.5 (66.0, 95.5), adult ventilation score: 95.0 (80.0, 98.1) vs. 82.0 (68.8, 98.0), both P < 0.01]. Conclusions:Rich experience in emergency rescue is related to the improvement of CPR skills, and performing chest compressions from the right side of the adult model is more effective. Objective scoring of resuscitation skills based on the RQI model may more accurately reflect the performance of the trainees.

Objective:To study the postoperative complications and its risk factors in patients undergoing breast reconstruction with abdominal flaps.Methods:The clinical data of patients undergoing breast reconstruction with abdominal flaps at Department of Breast Oncoplastic Surgery, Tianjin Medical University Cancer Institute and Hospital from Jan 2011 to Apr 2022 were reviewed.Results:Postoperative complications occurred in 95 of 484 patients (19.6%), 15.5% had flap complications, 5.2% had donor-site complications, and fat necrosis was the most common complication (11.9%). The rate of fat liquefaction decreased significantly through technical improvement (1.7% vs. 7.0%); By univariate analysis, there were statistically significant differences among the groups by reconstructive type, neoadjuvant chemotherapy, BMI, smoking history ( χ2=21.088, P<0.001; χ2=4.385, P=0.036; χ2=14.784, P=0.018; χ2=19.015, P=0.048). Unplanned reoperation statistically related to the timing of reconstruction, and reconstructive type ( χ2=7.316, P=0.007; χ2=17.167, P<0.001). Revision surgery significantly related to the timing of reconstruction and timing of radiation ( χ2=40.785, P<0.001; χ2=18.602, P<0.001);By multivariate analysis, deep inferior epigastric perforator flap, smoking history were independent risk factors for flap necrosis ( OR=0.084, 95% CI:0.022-0.325, P<0.001; OR=41.623, 95% CI:3.241-534.569, P=0.004) . Conclusions:Complications after breast reconstruction with abdominal flaps are related to many factors. The surgical risks should be carefully evaluated and personalized plan should be formulated before surgery.

Objective:To isolate and culture WU polyomavirus (WUPyV), and to analyze the genome-wide evolutionary patterns, homology and population dynamics.Methods:Real-time quantitative PCR was used to detect the nasopharyngeal aspirate samples of hospitalized children with respiratory tract infection in Beijing Friendship Hospital during 2020 to 2022. Primary human airway epithelial cells cultured at the air-liquid interface were used to isolate and culture WUPyV. Whole genome sequence of the isolated strain was obtained by Sanger sequencing. For phylogenetic and evolutionary dynamics analysis, the whole genome was compared with the published whole genome sequences in GenBank database.Results:The detection rate of WUPyV was 4.7% (31/659) during 2020 to 2022, and a clinical strain BJ0593 of WUPyV type Ⅲc was successfully isolated. The homology of the whole genome and gene fragments of WUPyV was high. The average evolutionary rate of VP2 gene was about 1.256×10 -4 substitution/site every year, and the population dynamics of WUPyV tended to be flat in the last decade. Conclusions:This study successfully isolated a clinical WUPyV type Ⅲ strain for the first time, which provided the basis for further investigation on the molecular evolution and pathogenicity of WUPyV.

ObjectiveIn this study， based on ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry（UHPLC-MS/MS） and high-throughput transcriptome sequencing technology（RNA-seq）， we investigated the mechanism of Yishen Huashi granules in regulating serum metabolites and renal messenger ribonucleic acid（mRNA） expression to improve diabetic kidney disease（DKD）. MethodSD rats were randomly divided into normal group ， model group and Yishen Huashi granules group， with 8 rats in each group. The rat model of DKD was established by intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin. Yishen Huashi granules group was given 5.54 g·kg^-1·d^-1 of Yishen Huashi granules by gavage， and the normal group and the model group were given the same amount of normal saline for 6 weeks. During the experiment， the body weight and blood glucose of rats were monitored， and the rats were anesthetized 24 hours after the last administration， blood was collected from the inferior vena cava， serum was separated， and renal function， blood lipid， and inflammatory indicators were detected. Kidney tissue of rats was fixed in neutral paraformaldehyde， and stained with hematoxylin-eosin（HE）， Masson and periodic acid-Schiff（PAS） to observe the renal pathological changes. UHPLC-MS/MS and RNA-seq were used to identify the changes of serum metabolism and the differences of renal mRNA expression， and real time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction（Real-time PCR） and Western blot were used to detect the differential mRNA and protein expression in renal tissue to explore the common expression mechanism. ResultCompared with the normal group， rats in the model group showed a decrease in body weight， a significant increase in blood glucose， urinary microalbumin to urinary creatinine ratio（UACR）， blood urea nitrogen（BUN）， cystatin-C（Cys-C）， β₂-microglobulin（β₂-MG）， interleukin-6（IL-6）， triglyceride（TG） and total cholesterol（TC）， and a significant decrease in total superoxide dismutase（T-SOD）（P<0.01）. After the intervention of Yishen Huashi granules， all the indexes were improved to different degrees in rats（P<0.05， P<0.01）. Compared with the normal group， the model group showed renal mesangial stromal hyperplasia， fibrous tissue hyperplasia and tubular vacuolar degeneration. Compared with the model group， the renal pathology of rats in Yishen Huashi granules group was improved to a certain extent. A total of 14 target metabolites and 96 target mRNAs were identified， the target metabolites were mainly enriched in 20 metabolic pathways， including sphingolipid metabolism， glycerophospholipid metabolism， and the biosynthesis of phenylalanine， tyrosine and tryptophan. The target mRNAs were enriched to obtain a total of 21 differential mRNAs involved in the TOP20 pathways closely related to glycolipid metabolism. A total of 6 pathways， glycerophospholipid metabolism， arachidonic acid metabolism， purine metabolism， primary bile acid biosynthesis， ascorbic acid and uronic acid metabolism， and galactose metabolism， were enriched by serum differential metabolites and renal differential mRNAs， among them， there were 7 differential metabolites such as phosphatidylethanolamine（PE） and 7 differential mRNAs such as recombinant adenylate cyclase 3（ADCY3）. Seven differential metabolites had high predictive accuracy as verified by receiver operating characteristic（ROC） curve， and the results of Real-time PCR and Western blot were highly consistent with the sequencing results. ConclusionYishen Huashi granules can reduce UACR， BUN and other biochemical indexes， correct the disorder of glucose and lipid metabolism， and improve renal function of DKD rats. And its mechanism may be related to the regulation of the level of PE and other blood metabolites， and expression of Phospho1 and other mRNAs in the kidney， of which six pathways， including glycerophospholipid metabolism， may play an important role.
