Objective:To explore the latent profile types of capability-opportunity-motivation-behavior in stroke patients and analyze the influencing factors of different latent profiles.Methods:From January to October 2023, totally 596 stroke patients from the Neurology Department of five ClassⅢ Grade A hospitals in Henan Province were selected by stratified random sampling. The patients were surveyed using a general information questionnaire, the Stroke Prevention Knowledge Questionnaire (SPKQ), the Social Support Rating Scale (SSRS), the WHO's Quality of Life Questionnaire- Brief Version (WHOQOL-BREF), the Short Form Health Belief Model Scale (SF-HBMS), and the Health Promoting Lifestyle ProfileⅡ (HPLPⅡ). Latent profile analysis was used to classify the capability-opportunity-motivation-behavior characteristics of stroke patients, and multiple logistic regression was conducted to explore the influencing factors of different latent profiles.Results:Three latent profiles of capability-opportunity-motivation-behavior in stroke patients were identified, including low capability-opportunity-motivation-behavior with high health beliefs (32.4%, 193/596), moderate capability-opportunity-motivation-behavior with insufficient health beliefs (47.5%, 283/596), and high capability-opportunity-motivation-behavior with lack of social support (20.1%, 120/596). Multiple logistic regression analysis showed that educational level, smoking history, family history, body mass index, and Charlson Comorbidity Index score were influencing factors of different latent profiles ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:Stroke patients exhibit distinct classifications of capability-opportunity-motivation-behavior. Targeted interventions should be conducted based on the characteristics of each category to improve health behavior management outcomes in patients.

BACKGROUND:Clinical studies have found good analgesic effects of silver needle-thermal conduction therapy in patients with myofascial pain syndrome,but the exact mechanism remains unclear. OBJECTIVE:To observe the effect of silver needle-thermal conduction therapy on silent information regulator homolog 3(SIRT3)changes and mitochondrial ultrastructure in a rat model of myofascial pain syndrome. METHODS:Twenty rats were randomly selected from 26 Sprague-Dawley rats and were subjected to percussion combined with motor fatigue for replicating the rat model of myofascial pain syndrome.Sixteen rats that were successfully modeled were randomly divided into model group and silver needle-thermal conduction therapy group(treatment group),with eight rats in each group.The remaining rats were used as controls(normal group).The treatment group was treated with silver needle-thermal conduction therapy.Mechanical withdrawal threshold and thermal withdrawal latency of rats were measured at 1 day before modeling,1 day after modeling and 14 days after treatment.Electromyographic activities of the right medial femoral muscle were measured at 14 days after treatment.The right medial femoral muscle tissue was taken for hematoxylin-eosin staining to observe the local morphology and for transmission electron microscopy to observe the mitochondrial ultrastructure.Western blot assay was performed to detect SIRT3 expression. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Pain threshold:The mechanical withdrawal threshold and thermal withdrawal latency of the model and treatment groups were significantly decreased compared with those in the normal group and before modeling(P＜0.01).After treatment,the mechanical withdrawal threshold and thermal withdrawal latency of rats were significantly higher in the treatment group compared with the model group(P＜0.01).Electromyography:The rats in the model group showed spontaneous electrical activity in the right medial femur,while the rats in the treatment group showed reduced spontaneous electrical activity,longer time frame(P＜0.01)and lower wave amplitude(P＜0.05)compared with the model group.Hematoxylin-eosin staining:In the normal group,rat muscle fibers arranged closely and regularly.In the model group,the muscle fibers of rats were atrophied,degenerated,and disordered in arrangement.In the treatment group,rat muscle structure disorder improved.Mitochondrial microstructure:Under the transmission electron microscope,mitochondrial structure in the normal group was normal;mitochondrial swelling with broken or disappeared cristae appeared in the model group;mitochondrial swelling in the treatment group was obviously relieved or tended to be normal.SIRT3 expression:SIRT3 expression was significantly downregulated in the model group compared with the normal group,but was significantly upregulated in the treatment group compared with the model group(P＜0.05).To conclude,abnormalities in local muscle mitochondria and downregulation of SIRT3 expression suggest the presence of impaired energy metabolism in the rat model of myofascial pain syndrome.Mitochondrial changes recover and are close to normal after the silver needle-thermal conduction therapy,and the expression of SIRT3 is also upregulated close to the normal group,indicating the silver needle-thermal conduction therapy may play a therapeutic role by promoting mitochondrial repair and improving energy metabolism disorder.

Objective:To investigate the clinical practicability of positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) titrated by lung stretch index (SI) in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS).Methods:A parallel randomized controlled trial was conducted. Patients with moderate to severe ARDS who required mechanical ventilation admitted to the department of critical care medicine of General Hospital of the Yangtze River Shipping from August 2022 to February 2023 were enrolled. They were randomly divide into SI guided PEEP titration group (SI group) and pressure-volume curve (P-V curve) inspiratory low inflection point (LIP) guided PEEP titration group (LIP group). All patients were ventilated in a supine position after admission, with the head of the bed raised by 30°. The primary disease was actively treated, prone position ventilation for 12 h/d, and lung protective ventilation strategies such as controlled lung expansion were used for lung recruitment. On this basis, mechanical ventilation parameters were titrated with SI in the SI group; the LIP group titrated mechanical ventilation parameters with P-V curve inspiratory LIP+2 cmH 2O (1 cmH 2O ≈ 0.098 kPa). The oxygenation index (PaO 2/FiO 2), and respiratory mechanics indicators such as lung dynamic compliance (Cdyn), peak airway pressure (Pip) were monitored before recruitment maneuver and after 1, 3, and 5 days of treatment. The therapeutic effect of the two groups was compared. Results:There were 41 patients in the SI group and 40 patients in the LIP group. There was no significant difference in general information such as gender, age, and disease type between the two groups. The mechanical ventilation time and the length of intensive care unit (ICU) stay in the SI group were significantly shorter than those in the LIP group (days: 9.47±3.36 vs. 14.68±5.52, 22.27±4.68 vs. 27.57±9.52, both P < 0.05). Although the 28-day mortality of the SI group was lower than that of the LIP group, the difference was not statistically significant [19.5% (8/41) vs. 35.0% (14/40), P > 0.05]. On the fifth day, the PaO 2/FiO 2 was higher in SI group [mmHg (1 mmHg≈0.133 kPa): 225.57±47.85 vs. 198.32±31.59, P < 0.05], the Cdyn was higher in SI group (mL/cmH 2O: 47.39±6.71 vs. 35.88±5.35, P < 0.01), the Pip was lower in SI group (mmHg: 35.85±5.77 vs. 43.87±6.68, P < 0.05). The Kaplan-Meier survival curve showed no statistically significant difference in the 28 days cumulative survival rate between the two groups (Log-Rank: χ2 = 2.348, P = 0.125). Conclusion:The application of SI titration with PEEP in the treatment of ARDS patients may improve their prognosis.

【Objective】 To understand the prevalence of overweight/obesity among school-age children in Pudong New Area of Shanghai, and to explore the influence of gestational weight gain and pre-pregnancy body mass index (BMI) on weight status of school-age children. 【Methods】 From November to December 2020,a stratified cluster sampling method was adopted to select first-grade students from 13 primary schools in Pudong New Area of Shanghai.After matching with the birth monitoring database, 755 students with complete birth information were selected as the study subjects.The relevant information of mothers before and during pregnancy was retrospectively collected, and the effects of pregnancy weight gain combined with pre-pregnancy BMI on overweight/obesity in school-age children were analyzed. 【Results】 1) The prevalence rates of overweight and obesity of first-grade children were 15.89% and 18.41%, respectively.2) Maternal excessive weight gain during pregnancy (OR=1.678) and overweight/obesity before pregnancy (OR=2.315,2.412) were risk factors for overweight/obesity of the offspring at school age(P<0.05).3) For mothers who were underweight before pregnancy, excessive weight gain during pregnancy was associated with overweight/obesity in school-age children in their offspring (OR=7.436, 95%CI: 1.489 - 37.143,P<0.05).4) Excessive weight gain during pregnancy combined with overweight/obesity before pregnancy significantly increased the risk of overweight/obesity in offspring (OR=3.606, 95%CI: 2.030 - 6.405, P<0.05). Mothers who gained a moderate amount of weight during pregnancy and were emaciated before pregnancy had a significantly lower risk of overweight/obesity in their school-age children (OR=0.217, 95%CI: 0.049 - 0.967, P<0.05). 【Conclusion】 Excessive weight gain during pregnancy increases the risk of overweight/obesity in school-age children in their offspring, strengthening pregnancy health education and perinatal care to help pregnant women maintain appropriate weight gain during pregnancy may be an important and novel strategy to prevent childhood obesity.

AIM: To explore the risk factors of retinal detachment after stage II vitrectomy in patients with open ocular trauma.METHODS: Retrospective analysis. Totally 278 patients(278 eyes)with open ocular trauma who received stage II vitrectomy in the hospital were included from April 2020 to July 2023. According to the postoperative retinal detachment status, they were divided into detachment group(48 eyes)and non-detachment group(230 eyes). The basic clinical conditions of the two groups of patients were compared, and the factors affecting retinal detachment were analyzed.RESULTS: Univariate analysis revealed that there were statistical differences in wound length, injured area, surgical time after injury, and history of retinal detachment/lesion between the two groups(all P<0.05). Logistics multivariate regression analysis showed that wound length greater than 10 mm, surgical time after injury more than 1 wk, and history of retinal detachment/lesion were risk factors for retinal detachment in patients with open ocular trauma after stage II vitrectomy(all P<0.05).CONCLUSION: The occurrence of retinal detachment in patients with open ocular trauma after stage II vitrectomy is mainly related to the severity of trauma, surgical time after injury and history of ocular retinopathy. It is necessary to perform surgical treatment for patients as soon as possible.

Objective To discuss the effect of multidisciplinary family empowerment mode in home care for patients after receiving percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy(PEG).Methods A total of 86 patients,who received initial PEG at the Jilin Provincial Cancer Hospital of China from January 2021 to July 2023,were selected for this study.The patients were randomly divided into observation group.The patients of the control group received routine nursing guidance for gastrostomy,while the patients of the observation group received multidisciplinary family empowerment nursing mode.The self-care ability[using self-care ability scale of the elderly(SASE)score],health behavior ability[using self-rating scale of health behavior ability(SRAHP)score],incidence of complications,and healing time of complications were compared between the two groups.Results In the observation group the SASE[(129.48±5.48)points vs.(73.05±12.04)points]and the SRAHP[(80.14±1.00)points vs.(70.25±7.92)points]were significantly higher than those in the control group(all P＜0.05),the incidence of complications was lower than that in the control group,and the healing time of complications was shorter than that in the control group.Conclusion The implementation of multidisciplinary family empowerment nursing mode can improve the self-care ability and health behavior ability of patients after receiving PEG,reduce postoperative complications,as well as shorten the healing time of complications,therefore,this nursing mode is suitable for home patients after receiving PEG.

Objective:To explore the relationship between 18F-fibroblast activation protein inhibitor (FAPI)-42 SUV max of primary gastric cancer and clinicopathological factors of patients. Methods:Fifty-one patients (31males, 20 females, age: 51(47, 65) years) with gastric cancer who underwent 18F-FAPI-42 PET/CT before surgical resection in Nanfang Hospital, Southern Medical University from February 2022 to January 2023 were analyzed retrospectively. The clinicopathological factors that might affect tumor SUV max (including gender, age, tumor location, pathological type, histological grade, Lauren classification, vascular and(or) neural invasion, programmed cell death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) expression, pathologic(p)T stage, pN stage and pTNM stage) were evaluated by the univariate analysis (Mann-Whitney U test or Kruskal-Wallis rank sum test) and multivariate analysis (multiple linear regression analysis). Results:The sensitivity of 18F-FAPI-42 PET/CT in the diagnosis of patients with primary gastric cancer was 82.35% (42/51). The diagnostic sensitivities for early gastric cancer (T1) and locally advanced gastric cancer (T2-T4) were 59.09%(13/22) and 100%(29/29), respectively. The SUV max of primary lesion was 4.90(1.71, 12.51). The univariate analysis showed that SUV max of primary gastric cancer was related to tumor location ( z=-2.00, P=0.046), pT stage ( H=36.94, P<0.001), pN stage ( z=-3.89, P<0.001), pTNM stage ( H=31.49, P<0.001) and vascular and(or) nerve invasion ( z=-5.22, P<0.001), but not related to pathological type, histological grade, Lauren typing, and PD-L1 expression ( z values: from -1.78 to -0.09, all P>0.05). pT stage was found to be a significant independent factor for SUV max in primary gastric lesion by multivariate analysis ( t=2.52, P=0.015). Conclusions:The 18F-FAPI-42 SUV max of primary tumor was related to tumor location, pT stage, pN stage, pTNM stage, and vascular and(or) nerve invasion; pT stage is an independent factor affecting tumor SUV max. The ability of 18F-FAPI-42 PET/CT to detect gastric cancer is mainly affected by pT stage.

Objective:To investigate the relationship between intracranial arterial remodeling and imaging markers in patients with cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD).Methods:One hundred and fifty-six patients with CSVD who were admitted to the Department of Neurology of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University or the Public People′s Hospital of Xinzheng from January 2020 to May 2022 were selected, and their brain artery remodeling (BAR) score was calculated. The patients with BAR score≤-1 standard deviation (SD) were defined as individuals with constrictive remodeling of intracranial arteries, and the patients with BAR score≥1 SD were defined as individuals with dilated remodeling of intracranial arteries. Imaging markers of CSVD [white matter hyperintensities (WMHs), lacune, cerebral microbleeds, enlarged perivascular spaces, and cerebral atrophy] were quantified, total CSVD load was calculated and patients were divided into low load group (0-2 points, n=91) and high load group (3-4 points, n=65) according to the total CSVD load scores. The correlation between intracranial artery remodeling and various imaging markers of CSVD and total load was analyzed by using univariate analysis and binary Logistic regression analysis. A nomogram prediction model was established and a receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) was drawn to assess the predictive value of intracranial artery remodeling on high total CSVD load. Results:Dilated intracranial arterial remodeling was an independent influence factor on severe WMHs ( OR=3.66, 95% CI 1.38-9.72, P=0.009), lacune ( OR=3.78, 95% CI 1.17-12.19, P=0.026), cerebral atrophy ( OR=3.11, 95% CI=1.10-8.81, P=0.033), and high total CSVD load ( OR=6.66, 95% CI=2.14-20.77, P=0.001). Age was an independent influencing factor for high total CSVD load ( OR=1.12, 95% CI 1.07-1.16, P<0.01). A nomogram prediction model for high total CSVD load with age and BAR score≥1 SD as dependent variables had a good effect (C-index=0.826) and calibration ( P=0.024). The best cut-off point of ROC curve was 0.50, with an area under the curve of 0.83 (95% CI 0.76-0.89, P<0.01), the sensitivity and specificity of 0.72 and 0.82. Conclusions:Patients with dilated intracranial arterial remodeling may have a heavier CSVD load. Dilated intracranial arterial remodeling may serve as a new biomarker for assessing CSVD, but the mechanism of the association needs further study.

Objective:To investigate the current situation and influencing factors of patients′ satisfaction with nursing humanistic care, and to provide reference for improving the quality of such care provided by hospitals.Methods:From July to August 2022, outpatients and inpatients in 30 provinces were selected by multi-stage stratified sampling as the survey objects. A cross-sectional survey was conducted on an online platform, using the general information questionnaire and Chinese version of methodist health care system nurse caring instrument revised by the research group. The latter instrument consists of 12 dimensions. namely care coordination, competence, teaching/learning, emotional support, respect for individuality, physical comfort, availability, helping/trusting relationship, patient/family engagement, physical environment, spiritual environment and outcomes. Descriptive analysis was performed on the data collected by the questionnaires, and independent sample t-test and one-way ANOVA were used to analyze the influencing factors of patient satisfaction. Results:A total of 107 hospitals were selected for questionnaire survey, including 86 tertiary hospitals and 21 secondary hospitals, and 29 108 valid questionnaires were recovered. The patient satisfaction with nursing humanistic care scored (5.40±0.86); the top three dimensions were competence (5.50±0.89), emotional support (5.47±0.88) and helping/trusting relationship (5.46±0.86); the lowest scoring dimensions were teaching/learning (5.38±1.01), spiritual environment (5.36±1.04) and patient/family engagement (5.11±1.28). Differences with gender, age, marital status, child status, educational level, occupation, place of residence, economic region, per capita monthly income of the family, type of medical insurance, medical department visited and surgery or not presented significant differences on the patient satisfaction with nursing humanistic care scores ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The satisfaction of patients with hospital′s nursing humanistic care in China was at the middle to upper level. In the future, health education for patients should be strengthened, and a mode of family-engaged nursing humanistic care should be constructed in line with the Chinese cultural background. In the process of nursing services, the particularity of patient groups should be considered to better meet their needs.

AIM: To observe the effect ofacacia honey (AH) on serum uric acid level and renal function in potassium oxonate modelrats after drinking AH aqueous solution. METHODS: Sixty male SD rats were selected and randomly divided into control group (CON group), potassium oxonate model group (OA model group), 10% fructose group (10% F group) and different concentration honey groups (25%, 12.5% and 6.25% AH groups). All rats were fed with normal diet.The rats in CON group were subcutaneously injected with 5% sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC-Na) solution and drunk sterile water every day, while rats in other groups were injected with 100 mg / kg OA solution suspended with 5% CMC-Na subcutaneouslyand drunksterile water orfructose solution or AH solution of different concentrations every day. Before and during the 4-week test, rats were weighed and blood was taken once a week. At the end of test, urine and feces specimens or kidney tissues were collected and blood was taken from the abdominal aorta. The uric acid content in blood, urine, and feces and the levels of serum creatinine (Cre) and blood urea nitrogen (BUN) or inflammatory factors in kidney tissues were measured. Renal function and histology were evaluated. RESULTS: Compared with CON group, AH could significantly reduce the body weight of rats (P<0.05), increase the kidney organ coefficient, the levels of serum uric acid, and uric acid in urine or feces, and reduce the level of fecal uric acid (FUA) in rats. AH can down regulate the level of tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-a) (P< 0.05) and up regulate the expression of monocyte chemoattractant protein 1 (MCP-1) and transforming growth factor β - 1 (TGF - β1) in rats kidneys; AH can cause slight to mild dilatation of renal tubules and mild to moderate basophilic lesions of renal rubules in rat kidney in a dose dependent manner. CONCLUSION: In the doses rang of present study, AH can cause hyperuricemia, renal tubular dilatation and basophilic lesions, and lead to renal function damage in rats.
