Objective To investigate the effect of early rehabilitation intervention on acute cerebral infarction.Methods 132 patients with acute cerebral infarction were evenly divided into the observation group and the control group: the former received early rehabilitation intervention and the latter routine nursing intervention.The two groups were assessed and compared with Fugl-Meyer Assessment(FMA),Bathel Index(BI)and Self-rating Depression Scale(SDS).Results The scores on FMA and BI in the observation group were higher than those in the control group(P<0.05),while the scores on depression in the observation group were lower than those in the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion The early rehabilitation intervene may improve the motor function and activities of daily living and reduce the degree of depression.

Objective To describe the level of self-perceived burden (SPB) and analyze its influencing factors among the patients with advanced lung cancer, in order to provide a theoretical basis for individualized nursing care. Methods A total of 102 hospitalized patients with lung cancer from 3 hospitals in Shandong province were investigated by the Self-Perceived Burden Scale for Cancer Patient (SPBS-CP). Results The total score of the SPBS-CP was (60.31±17.06) points, which indicated at a moderate level. Those patients rated the highest score on the sub-scale of economic/family burden (22.04±6.72) points, the lowest score on the sub scale of care burden (10.28±3.62) points. Single factor analysis and regression results showed that different work conditions, different stages were related with SPB. Conclusions Patients with moderate and advanced lung cancer had a moderate or higher level of SPB. Staff nurses should focus on the psychological status of the patients and take positive interventions to release the negative emotional experiences.

Objective To investigate the levels of cancer related fatigue (CRF) and the correlations between CRF and serum inflammatory factors and hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis in patients with gastrointestinal cancer.Methods The CRF level was assessed by brief fatigue inventory (BFI).The level of C-reactive protein (CRP) was measured by immunoturbidimetry, and the level of cortisol was measured by electrochemiluminesence.The levels of interleukin (IL)-6, IL-1β, tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) and norepinephrine (NE) were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).Results The average total score of CRF was 3.15±1.93, and the degree was mild to moderate, which was positively correlated with the CRP (r=0.321, P=0.000), TNF-α (r=0.265, P=0.000), NE (r=0.174, P=0.015) and ACTH (r=0.257, P=0.000), but was not correlated with the cortisol (r=0.033, P=0.652).Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) score (t=8.081, P=0.000), education (t=-4.244, P=0.000), treatment (t=4.563, P=0.000), time from diagnosis to sampling (t=3.453, P=0.001) and CRP (t=2.837, P=0.006) were important factors of CRF.Conclusion The CRF status is common in gastrointestinal cancer patients.The CRF is correlated with the NE and ACTH of HPA axis.Medical staff should pay attention to the inflammatory factors and hormone levels to improve the fatigue status and the quality of patients.

Rabbit hemorrhagic disease (RHD) is contagious and highly lethal. Commercial vaccines against RHD are produced from the livers of experimentally infected rabbits. Although several groups have reported that recombinant subunit vaccines against rabbit hemorrhagic disease virus (RHDV) are promising, application of the vaccines has been restricted due to high production costs or low yield. In the present study, we performed codon optimization of the capsid gene to increase the number of preference codons and eliminate rare codons in Spodoptera frugiperda 9 (Sf9) cells. The capsid gene was then subcloned into the pFastBac plasmid, and the recombinant baculoviruses were identified with a plaque assay. As expected, expression of the optimized capsid protein was markedly increased in the Sf9 cells, and the recombinant capsid proteins self-assembled into virus-like particles (VLPs) that were released into the cell supernatant. Rabbits inoculated with the supernatant and the purified VLPs were protected against RHDV challenge. A rapid, specific antibody response against RHDV was detected by an ELISA in all of the experimental groups. In conclusion, this strategy of producing a recombinant subunit vaccine antigen can be used to develop a low-cost, insect cell-derived recombinant subunit vaccine against RHDV.

Anti-VEGF therapies have been widely used in the treatment of age-related macular degeneration, diabetic macular edema, retinal vein occlusion with macular edema and other retinal diseases. It have achieved remarkable treatment effect with relatively high safety, but there are still reports of adverse reactions in cardio-cerebral vessels and eyes. There are many methods to measure retinal blood flow. Although the principles of these methods are different, the results are different, and there is no uniform standard, it has been observed that anti-VEGF drugs may cause some changes in retinal vessel diameter, arterial blood flow velocity and blood flow parameters. Especially after multiple injections, the effect may be more obvious.

Objective To report 1 case with pancreatic cancer after chemotherapy infected by influenza B virus, and complicated with atrial fibrillation, pulmonary infection. Methods Clinical data, treatment, outcome of this case were reviewed and the nursing emphasis was summarized. Results Through active treatment and nursing, with cured influenza, successful cardioversion of atrial fibrillation and controlled lung infection, the patient was transferred to general hospital to treat basic disease. During hospitalization, none infection occurred among medical staff and caregivers. Conclusions Key points of nursing of patient with pancreatic cancer after chemotherapy complicated with influenza B include disease observation of atrial fibrillation, lung infection and influenza B virus infection, nutritional status improvement, skin care, psychological care for patients and care-givers, disinfection and isolation to influenza B virus infection, and staff self-protection.

Following the reform of the professional title system for"Breaking Four One-sided Evaluation Criteria"—focu-sing on more than just papers,titles,academic qualifications,and awards-establishing a scientific,systematic,and comprehen-sive medical performance evaluation index system has become essential for developing medical talent teams and conducting profes-sional title assessments fundamentally.This study establishes a medical performance evaluation index system tailored for clinicians in various departments of a cancer hospital who are competing for senior professional titles.This system comprises six primary in-dicators and 18 secondary indicators,with results presented in a ranked format of medical performance.Additionally,we have al-so analyzed the corr-elation between clinicians'medical performance rankings and their professional title evaluation outcomes through practical application.The results indicate that clinicians with higher performance rankings have significantly higher suc-cess rates in evaluations(P<0.05).This index system underscores clinical practice,enhances classification-based evaluations,and supports advanced information management and precision in hospital administration,thereby providing a solid foundation for strengthening the hospital's core competitiveness.
