Objective To explore the research status and future development trends of nursing case teaching at home and abroad,and to provide reference and guidance for the development of case teaching in nursing profession in China.Methods Data sources include the China National Knowledge Infrastructure(CNKI),Wanfang Data,and Web of Science databases.The CiteSpace software was used to visually analyze the research status and trends of nursing case teaching from January 2013 to Octo-ber 2023,covering nearly 11 years.Results A total of 2 889 valid articles were extracted.The important literature on nursing case teaching in China experienced a period of stable growth followed by rapid growth from 2013 to 2021.However,the number of publications and the number of publications in core journals on nursing case teaching abroad were higher than those in China.After 2021,both domestic and foreign publications on nursing case teaching showed a slow decline.The research on nursing case teaching in both domestic and foreign contexts is mainly conducted by universities,and the collaborative relationships between for-eign institutions and scholars are stronger than those within China.The research topics and hotspots in both domestic and foreign contexts are concentrated on the teaching applications for nursing students.Conclusion Nursing case teaching in China contin-ues to attract attention;however,compared to nursing case teaching abroad,the depth and breadth of research need to be further improved.Additionally,the collaboration between domestic authors and institutions is relatively limited.

Objective:To explore the relationship between executive function and gait in cases of mild amnestic cognitive impairment (aMCI).Methods:Twenty aMCI hospital patients formed an observation group, while 20 healthy counterparts were the control group. Both groups underwent the Tinetti test, followed by the " normal walking" single-task test and the " normal walking + Go/No-go" dual-task test. The pace, step width, stride length, Go/No-go task response time and accuracy rate were recorded.Results:In the single-task test, there was no significant difference in pace or stride width between the two groups, but the average stride length of the observation group (1.11±0.04)cm was significantly shorter than that of the control group. However, in the dual-task test, the average pace time (0.96±0.08)sec and stride length (1.02±0.06)cm of the observation group were significantly smaller than the control group′s averages, while their step width (0.11±0.02)cm was significantly wider. There was no significant difference between the two groups in the response time in a single (Go/No-go) task, but in the dual-task test, the observation group′s average time was significantly longer than the control group′s and the accuracy was significantly poorer. Both the error rate and the non-response rate were significantly higher than among the control group.Conclusions:Mild amnestic cognitive impairment reduces stride length and pace when walking and impairs executive function.
