Objective To evaluate the effect of early non-liquid diet for patients with mild acute pancreatitis by using Meta-analysis. Methods The randomized controlled trials(RCT) on early non-liquid diet intake for patients with mild acute pancreatitis were collected by computer searching the database of China National Knowledge Infrastructure(CNKI),Wanfang Periodical Database,CBM,Elsevier Scien Direct, cochrane library and PubMed from inception to February 2017, and analyzed by RevMan 5.2 software. Results Five RCTs were included in the study.The Results of Meta-analysis revealed that both the length of hospitalization after eating [MD=-1.48,95%CI-2.50~-0.47, P=0.004] and the total length of hospitalization[MD=-1.99,95%CI-(0.99-2.99),P=0.0001]in liquid diet group were less than that of non-liquid diet group,and the differences were statistically significant.There was no significant difference in the rate of the pain recurrence[RR=1.21,95%CI 0.77-1.91,P=0.40]and the rate of the elimination of oral feeding[RR=1.02,95%CI 0.45-2.30,P=0.96]because of pain,nausea or vomiting after refeeding,although all that rate in non-liquid diet was not lower than that of liquid diet group. Conclusions compared with liquid diet,early non-liquid diet intake for mild acute pancreatitis can shorten their hospitalization time, and it cannot be concluded that the non-liquid diet will increase the pain recurrence rate, and most patients have a better tolerance to non-liquid diet,and non-liquid diet can promote rehabilitation.

The involvement of parents in nursing is a new nursing model that promotes the recovery of children and increases parental satisfaction. It has the advantages of optimizing medical resources and promoting doctor-patient harmony. Now it is been widely introduced in the nursing of neonatal intensive care units. However, there are huge differences in the implementation of the involvement of parents in nursing, and there is also a lack of evaluation tools for such involvement. This article reviews the theoretical basis and significance, implementation path and effect evaluation of the involvement of parents in nursing at home and abroad, in order to provide a reference for the construction of local involvement programs of parents in nursing in neonatal intensive care units.

Objective:To summarize the best evidence of chronic pain management in the elderly, and to provide reference for the clinical practice of chronic pain management in the elderly.Methods:Focusing on the problem of chronic pain in the elderly, evidence-based nursing method was used to search the relevant literature in domestic and foreign databases from the establishment of the database to June 2, 2020. Two researchers evaluated the quality of various studies and level of evidence recommendation by the JBI evidence-based health care center's literature quality evaluation standard and evidence recommendation system, and extracted evidences from the literature meeting the inclusion criteria.Results:A total of 20 articles were included with 8 guides, 3 systematic reviews, 3 expert consensus, 1 best decision, 1 position statement and 4 evidence summaries. Finally, 20 pieces of best evidence were formed, including general principles of pain management, pain assessment, intervention strategies, self-management, education and training.Conclusions:This study summarizes the current literature on chronic pain in the elderly, which provides evidence-based basis for the management of chronic pain in the elderly. Clinicians should use the evidence according to the best clinical evidence and the actual medical conditions of the hospital, in order to improve the quality of nursing.

Objective To investigate the relationship between systemic immune-inflammation index (SII)and lower extremity vascular disease in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted on 390 T2DM patients admitted in our department from January 2013 to January 2024.According to the diagnostic criteria for lower extremity vascular disease in T2DM patients,they were divided into a lower extremity vascular disease group (n=158)and a control group (n=232).General data and results of laboratory tests were compared between the 2 groups.Spearman correlation analysis was used to identify the related factors for lower extremity vascular diseases in T2DM patients.The correlation between SII and lower extremity vascular diseases in T2DM patients was analyzed using the Row Mean Scores and Cochran-Armitage Trend analysis.Multivariate logistic regression analysis was applied to identify the risk factors for lower limb vascular lesions in T2DM patients.Receiver operating characteristic (ROC)curve was plotted to evaluate the diagnostic efficacy of SII for lower extremity vascular disease in the patients.Results Compared with T2DMpatients without lower extremity vascular disease,those with lower extremity vascular disease were older,had higher levels of total cholesterol (TC),low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C),SII,larger proportion of carotid vascular lesions,and increased proportion of no-taking statins.The lower extremity vascular disease in T2DM patients was positively correlated with SII/100 (r=0.429,P<0.001),age (r=0.517,P<0.001),TC (r=0.161,P=0.001),LDL-C (r=0.117,P=0.021),carotid artery lesions (r=0.101,P=0.047),no-taking statins (r=0.266,P<0.001).Logistic regression analysis showed that SII,age,LDL-C,and no-taking statins were the risk factors for lower extremity vascular lesions in T2DM patients (P<0.01).The area under the curve (AUC)value of SII combined with age,LDL-C,and no-taking statins in predicting lower extremity vascular disease in T2DM patients was 0.896.Conclusion SII is not only a risk factor,but also a simple marker for lower extremity vascular disease in T2DM patients,suggesting that inflammatory response plays an important role in the occurrence and development of lower extremity vascular disease in T2DM.

Objective To systematically evaluate the risk prediction models for anastomotic leakage (AL) in patients with esophageal cancer after surgery. Methods A computer-based search of PubMed, EMbase, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, Chinese Medical Journal Full-text Database, VIP, Wanfang, SinoMed and CNKI was conducted to collect studies on postoperative AL risk prediction model for esophageal cancer from their inception to October 1st, 2023. PROBAST tool was employed to evaluate the bias risk and applicability of the model, and Stata 15 software was utilized for meta-analysis. Results A total of 19 literatures were included covering 25 AL risk prediction models and 7373 patients. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) was 0.670-0.960. Among them, 23 prediction models had a good prediction performance (AUC>0.7); 13 models were tested for calibration of the model; 1 model was externally validated, and 10 models were internally validated. Meta-analysis showed that hypoproteinemia (OR=9.362), postoperative pulmonary complications (OR=7.427), poor incision healing (OR=5.330), anastomosis type (OR=2.965), preoperative history of thoracoabdominal surgery (OR=3.181), preoperative diabetes mellitus (OR=2.445), preoperative cardiovascular disease (OR=3.260), preoperative neoadjuvant therapy (OR=2.977), preoperative respiratory disease (OR=4.744), surgery method (OR=4.312), American Society of Anesthesiologists score (OR=2.424) were predictors for AL after esophageal cancer surgery. Conclusion At present, the prediction model of AL risk in patients with esophageal cancer after surgery is in the development stage, and the overall research quality needs to be improved.
