Objective:To explore the types of pre-diagnosis symptom clusters in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) and identify bridge symptoms between symptom clusters.Methods:From May to October 2023, convenience sampling was used to select 243 ACS patients who visited Shanxi Provincial People's Hospital as participants. The General Information Questionnaire and Chinese version of the McSweeney Acute and Prodromal Myocardial Infarction Symptoms Survey were used for the survey. Exploratory factors were used to analyze symptom clusters, while network analysis was used to identify bridge symptoms between symptom clusters. A total of 243 questionnaires were distributed, and 230 valid questionnaires were collected, with a valid response rate of 94.7% (230/243) .Results:Before diagnosis, ACS patients had four symptom clusters, namely typical chest symptom cluster, typical shoulder and back symptom cluster, fatigue related symptom cluster, and cardiopulmonary symptom cluster. In symptom network analysis, fatigue and anxiety were bridge symptoms between symptom clusters, with fatigue having the highest expected impact coefficient ( rbei=0.387 3), followed by close centrality ( rbc=0.024 2). The bridge mediation ( rbb=35.000) and close centrality ( rbc=0.024 8) of anxiety were the highest. Conclusions:Fatigue and anxiety are bridge symptoms in ACS patients, connecting different symptom clusters. Identifying bridge symptoms is beneficial for improving the efficiency and accuracy of symptom management. Research needs to consider patient heterogeneity and conduct subgroup studies on symptom clusters to further explore the practical significance of core and bridge symptoms in clinical practice.

Purpose To explore the value of a prediction model based on diffusion weighted imaging(DWI)deep learning features in endometrial cancer microsatellite instability status assessment.Materials and Methods DWI data of 32 microsatellite instability and 55 microsatellite stability endometrial cancer patients were analysed from June 2020 to April 2023 in Xinxiang Central Hospital,retrospectively.Apparent diffusion coefficient(ADC)values of the primary lesions were measured,and deep learning features and imaging histological features of the primary lesions were extracted using multilayer convolutional neural networks and PyRadiomics,respectively.The least absolute shrinkage and selection operator and random forest were used for feature screening and model building,respectively.The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve(AUC)and net reclassification improvement were used to evaluate model performance.Bootstrap based on 1 000 resamples was used for internal validation of the model.Results For the deep learning model,a total of 6 features were included,the 7th,57th,77th,82nd,97th and 108th features,with an AUC of 0.905(95％CI 0.823-0.957);for the radiomics model,a total of 6 features were included,1 neighborhood grey level difference matrix,4 grey level region size matrices and 1 grey level tour length matrix feature,with an AUC was 0.844(95％CI 0.751-0.913);for ADC values,the microsatellite instability group had smaller ADC values than the microsatellite stability group(t=-4.123,P＜0.001),with an AUC of 0.810(95％CI 0.712-0.886).Compared with the radiomics model and ADC values,the deep learning model showed improved risk prediction,with net reclassification improvements of 0.856 and 0.486(P＜0.01,P=0.024),respectively.In Bootstrap-based internal validation,the deep learning model also demonstrated higher performance than the radiomics model,with AUCs of 0.897(95％CI0.889-0.905)and 0.829(95％CI0.812-0.839),respectively.Conclusion A prediction model based on deep learning features of DWI images can provide a better assessment of microsatellite instability status in endometrial cancer patients than radiomics model and ADC values.

Objective:To analyze the clinical and genetic characteristics of ten Chinese pedigrees affected with 7q11.23 duplication syndrome.Methods:From December 2017 to January 2022, ten pedigrees diagnosed with 7q11.23 duplication syndrome at the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University were enrolled as the study subjects. Clinical data of all subjects were collected, and some had subjected to copy number variation sequencing or single nucleotide polymorphism array to analyze the pattern of inheritance.Results:The probands had included six fetuses and four adolescents. Four of the six prenatal cases showed abnormal ultrasound indicators, including three with soft indicators and one with abnomal feta structural development. The clinical phenotype of the four adolescent cases had included mental retardation, delayed language development, and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. The size of the copy number variations had ranged from 1.31 to 1.42 Mb, involving the classic region of 7q11.23 duplication syndrome. Of these, five cases had undergone parental origin testing, three cases were de novo, and two were hereditary. Conclusion:Individuals with 7q11.23 duplication syndrome may show substantial clinical phenotypic heterogeneity, hence the affected families should be provided with pre-pregnancy consultation and reproductive guidance.

Objective:To apply the best evidence of pre-examination and triage management of patients with non-traumatic acute abdomen to clinical practice and evaluate its effects.Methods:Using convenience sampling method, 15 nurses and 237 patients with non-traumatic acute abdomen admitted in the emergency department of Shanxi Provincial People ′s Hospital from January to May 2021 were selected as the research objects, 114 cases as the baseline review group and 123 cases as the after-effect evaluation group. Following the clinical evidence practice application of JBI Evidence-Based Nursing Center Systematic standard procedures, using self before-after control study to compare the knowledge and behavior of triage nurses before and after evidence application, and compliance with each review index; using a non-contemporaneous controlled trial to compare the changes of pre-examination and triage time and triage accuracy between two groups. Results:After the application of evidence, the score of the triage nurses on the pre-examination and triage of non-traumatic acute abdomen increased from 98.00±6.56 in the after-effect evaluation group to 114.20±3.88 in the base-line review group, and the difference was statistically significant ( t=8.62, P<0.05); after the application of evidence, the compliance with indicators 1-9,12,13,15-17 was significantly improved and the difference was significant ( χ2 values were 11.46-123.06, all P <0.05). After the application of evidence, the compliance rate of those indicators <80% increased to more than 80% except indicator 6, the accuracy of patient triage rose from 84.21%(96/114) to 93.50%(115/123) with a statistically significant difference ( χ2=5.22, P<0.05); after the application of the evidence, the triage time was 2.00(1.00,4.00) min, shorter than 3.00(2.00,4.63) min in the base-line review group, and the difference was statistically significant ( Z=-3.18, P<0.05). Conclusions:The application of the best evidence of pre-examination and triage for non-traumatic acute abdomen can improve the nursing practice of non-traumatic acute abdomen triage, improve the accuracy of non-traumatic acute abdomen triage, and shorten the triage time.

Objective:To understand the current status of perioperative physical prevention of venous thrombosis in patients undergoing total knee and hip replacement and to analyze the barriers to clinical transformation of evidence and improve measures.Methods:Based on the evidence-based continued quality improvement model, then building a team, systematically searching, evaluating and summarizing evidences, establishing review indicators and review methods according to FAME principles (feasibility, appropriately, meanfulness, effectiveness), selecting patients undergoing total knee and hip replacement, nurses, and doctors who underwent total knee and hip replacement surgery from April 30 to August 31, 2020 in Shanxi Provincial People's Hospital as the review objects, and conducting a baseline review according to the review indicators one by one, and analyzing the obstacle factors and improvement measures based on the review results.Results:This study included 29 best evidences, and 17 review indicators were formulated based on the best evidences. Among them, the clinical compliance rate of 5 review indicators were greater than 80%, and the clinical compliance rate of 12 review indicators were less than 80%. The main obstacles were due to the imperfect venous thromboembolism (VTE) risk assessment and management process at the system level, and the low level of knowledge of VTE prevention and management among medical staff at the individual level.Conclusions:This study was based on the best evidences, scientifically and systematically developed clinical review indicators, rigorously and comprehensively analyzed obstacles, and constructed targeted improvement measures, not only for the future physical prevention of perioperative venous thrombosis in patients with total knee and hip replacement surgery transformation provides the basis but also can further promote clinical practice changes and continuous quality improvement.

Objective:To investigate the safety and the efficacy of percutaneous and surgical approach in femoro-femoral veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) cannulation.Methods:All consecutive patients implanted with femoro-femoral VA-ECMO between January 2018 and December 2020 in Beijing Anzhen Hospital, Capital Medical University. Propensity score matching was used to compare outcomes of percutaneous and surgical groups while controlling for confounders.Results:Among the 276 patients who received femoro-femoral VA-ECMO (62 surgical and 214 percutaneous), propensity-score matching selected 52 pairs of patients with similar characteristics with mean age of(59.6±13.0)years old, in which 26 patients were female. There were a lower ECMO cannulation-associated complication (28.8% vs. 48.1%, P=0.044) and a lower hospital mortality (42.3% vs. 67.3%, P=0.010) in the percutaneous group. The circuit blood flow after ECMO initiation was similar in both groups[(3.3±0.8)L·min -1·kg -1 in percutaneous group vs. (3.2±0.7)L·min -1·kg -1 in surgical group, P=0.738]. The serum lactate was declined in both group after ECMO initiation[(5.4±5.8)mmol/L vs. (9.2±6.9)mmol/L, P<0.001 in percutaneous group; (6.3±6.2)mmol/L vs. (10.5±7.0)mmol/L, P=0.003 in surgical group]. Conclusion:Percutaneous approach is a safe and efficient technique in emoro-femoral VA-ECMO cannulation. Compared with surgical cannulation, percutaneous approach is associated with lower ECMO cannulation-associated complication and lower hospital mortality.

Objective:To explore the symptom experience of patients with acute coronary syndrome before diagnosis, in order to improve their early recognition ability, timely medical treatment rate and formulate relevant measures to provide reference.Methods:Semi-structured interview was performed in 18 patients with acute coronary syndrome from August 12 2020 to September 8 in Shanxi Provincial people′s Hospital using phenomenological research, and the data were analyzed under the guidance of symptom experience model.Results:A total of four themes were summarized: symptom perception: diseases being easily predicted, symptom experiences being diverse and diseases being easily overlooked; symptom evaluation: correct evaluation and evaluation bias; symptom response: self-response and family-society support; reflection on the process of symptom experience:medical behaviour and lack of awareness of disease.Conclusions:At present, the identification of acutecoronary syndrome is still a challenge. Patients should enrich relevant knowledge, pay attention to their own symptom experience, make the correct evaluation and deal with it effectively. Medical workers should carry out relevant education to improve the ability of patients to identify diseases.

Objective:To investigate the value and molecular mechanism of gastric cancer stem cells in invasion and metastasis of gastric cancer.Methods:Gastric cancer stem cells were isolated by spheroid culture method, and the biological characteristics were identified. The role of gastric cancer stem cells in multidrug resistance, invasion and metastasis was analyzed. The important molecules involved in the biological behavior of gastric cancer stem cells were identified by gene chip. Screening of the signaling pathway revealed that anthrax toxin receptor 2 (ANTXR2)plays an important role in invasion, metastasis, glomerization and tumor formation.Results:Sox2 and Bmi1 expression in SGC7901 and MGC803 cells were significantly higher than monolayer culture cells (15.39±3.23). Oct4 express increased to (4.19±0.62). The expression levels of the dry-related genes Bmi1, Sox2 and Oct4 in SGC7901-SC cells were (3.29±0.52), (3.12±0.49), (2.58±0.35), respectively, which were higher than those of SGC7901-MN cells, Bmi1, Sox2 and Oct4, respectively. The differences were statistically significant ( t=5.392, 7.316, 6.449, all P<0.05) for (1.41±0.39), (2.04±0.33), (1.39±0.32); in primary cells XN0422-SC and in SGC7901-SC cells, miR-638 was in high expression (0.69±0.11), and miR-181b and miR-181a in low expression (0.12±0.05) and (0.15±0.07). ANTXR2 expression in SGC7901-SC cells was higher than that in SGC7901-MN cells ( t=6.216, P<0.05). The ANTXR2 positive cells in SGC7901-SC was 85.48%. The proportion of ANTXR2 positive cells in SGC7901 was 4.98%. Gastric cancer cells XN0422 and SGC7901 were affected by PLVT713, and ANTXR2 expression protein decreased. Conclusion:ANTXR effects a regulatory role by activating the Src/ERk signaling pathway, which can be used to predict the biological beharious of gastric cancer.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of preoperative intra-aortic balloon pump(IABP) insertion in acute myocardial infarction(AMI) without cardiogenic shock(CS) patients receiving off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting ( OPCABG).Methods 444 consecutive AMI patients who underwent isolated OPCABG from January 2009 to December 2016 were enrolled.158 patients who underwent preoperative IABP placement(IABP group) and the other of 286 patients who did not have IABP placement(control group).The in-hospital mortality rate, postoperative complications, mechanical ventilation time, ICU stay and hospital length were compared between the two groups.Results The overall mortality was 5.0%.135 pairs of patients were matched.The preoperative IABP insertion showed benefits in postoperative survival rate compared with the control group(0 vs.5.9%, P＝0.004).However, patients with preoperative IABP were more likely to prolong duration of mechanical ventilation and ICU stay.The postoperative length of stay in hospital didn't show significant difference between the two groups.Conclusion Survival advantage was observed from preoperative IABP insertion in AMI patients without CS under-going OPCABG.
