AIM:To establish a transtheoretical model(TTM)-based health management protocol for pediatric dry eye disease, and explore its practical application value in the clinical management of pediatric dry eye disease.METHODS: This was a prospective study. Children diagnosed with dry eye disease in the ophthalmology outpatient department from January to June 2025 were enrolled and randomly assigned to a control group and a management group. The control group received routine symptomatic treatment for dry eye, whereas the management group received TTM-based health management interventions in addition to conventional treatment, with a total intervention duration of 6 mo. Subjective symptoms were assessed using the ocular surface disease index(OSDI)and Dry Eyerelated Quality of Life Score(DEQS)at baseline, 1-month, 3-month and 6-month follow-up visits. Slitlamp biomicroscopy, tear film break-up time(BUT), Schirmer's I test(SIt), corneal fluorescein staining(FL), and doublepass optical quality measurement were conducted. Modulation transfer function cutoff frequency(MTF cutoff), Strehl ratio(SR), and objective scattering index(OSI)were recorded. All outcome indicators were compared between the two groups.RESULTS: A total of 235 children completed the follow-up, including 118 in the management group(64 males, 54 females; mean age 11.31±1.92 y)and 117 in the control group(60 males, 57 females; mean age 11.08±1.85 y). There was no significant difference in the indexes between the two groups before treatment(all P>0.05). At 1, 3, and 6 mo after intervention, BUT, SIt, MTF cutoff, and SR values were significantly increased in both groups compared with baseline, whereas OSDI, DEQS, FL, and OSI were significantly decreased(all P<0.05). At 1 mo posttreatment, there was no significant difference in the indexes between the two groups(all P>0.05). At 3 and 6 mo, the management group exhibited significantly higher BUT, SIt, MTF cutoff, and SR, as well as significantly lower OSDI, DEQS, FL, and OSI than the control group(all P<0.05).CONCLUSION: The TTM-centered health management model can effectively improve the ocular surface status and visual function of pediatric dry eyedisease and relieve dry eye symptoms, which exerts a remarkable effect on consolidating the long-term therapeutic efficacy of pediatric dry eye.

Objective:To investigate the effects of backward walking observational training combined with Soundsory cognitive training based on PASS (P: planning; A: attention; S: simultaneous; S:successive) theory on cognitive function, balance function and self-efficacy in elderly patients with post-stroke mild cognitive impairment (MCI).Methods:A randomized controlled trial was conducted. Elderly patients with post-stroke MCI admitted to the Department of Neurology, Affiliated Hospital of Jiangnan University from December 2022 to November 2023 were selected as the study objects by convenience sampling method. The patients were divided into control group and observation group by random number table. The patients in the control group implemented routine care and rehabilitation training, while the observation group were implemented backward walking observational training combined with Soundsory cognitive training based on the PASS theory. The Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA), the Brunel Balance, and the Stroke Self-Efficacy Questionnaire (SSEQ) were used to evaluate the intervention effect before intervention, 2 weeks and 4 weeks of intervention, respectively.Results:A total of 116 elderly patients with post-stroke MCI were included, comprising 58 patients in the observation group (32 males and 26 females), aged (73.47 ± 7.10) years, and 58 patients in the control group (33 males and 25 females), aged (72.72 ± 8.37) years. Before intervention, there were no significant differences in the total scores of MoCA, SSEQ and Brunel Balance Scale between the 2 groups (all P>0.05). At 2 and 4 weeks of intervention, the total score of MoCA in the observation group were (20.10 ± 2.73), (22.98 ± 2.98) points, which were higher than those of the control group (18.24 ± 2.84), (20.47 ± 3.29) points, the differences were statistically significant ( t=3.61, 4.32, both P<0.05). The total score of SSEQ in the observation group were (49.97 ± 7.73), (54.98 ± 7.88) points, which were higher than those in the control group (46.50 ± 8.69), (51.59 ± 6.10) points, the differences were statistically significant ( t=2.27, 2.60, both P<0.05). At 4 weeks of intervention, the Brunel Balance Scale score in the observation group was 11(9, 11) points, which was higher than 10(8, 11) points in the control group, the difference was statistically significant ( Z=-2.00, P<0.05). Conclusions:Backward walking observational training combined with Soundsory cognitive training based on PASS theory can effectively improve cognitive and balance functions, and enhance self-efficacy in elderly patients with post-stroke MCI.

AIM: To analyze the correlation between ocular surface status and serum lipids in patients with meibomian gland dysfunction(MGD)during pregnancy, and to provide new ideas for the management and treatment of MGD during pregnancy.METHODS: Totally 120 pregnant women(240 eyes)treated in our hospital from May 2021 to May 2022 were selected and they were divided into MGD group(60 cases, 120 eyes)and control group(60 cases, 120 eyes)according to the presence or absence of MGD. All subjects received the ocular surface disease index scores(OSDI)and underwent examinations of meibomian gland morphology and function, tear film and blood lipid.RESULTS: The scores of OSDI, the related indexes of meibomian gland, corneal fluorescein staining(FL)scores, total cholesterol(TC), triglyceride(TG)and low density lipoprotein-cholesterol(LDL-C)in the MGD group were significantly higher than those in the control group(P<0.05). The scores of fluorescein breakup time(FBUT), Schirmer Ⅰ test(SIt)and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C)in the MGD group were significantly lower than those in the control group(P<0.05). Correlation analysis showed that the scores of TG, TC, LDL-C were negatively correlated with the values of FBUT(rs =-0.702, -0.647, -0.710, all P<0.001).CONCLUSION: The level of blood lipids in pregnant patients with MGD is significantly increased, and the levels of TC, TG and LDL-C may be related to the stability of tear film.

SARS-CoV-2 has posed a significant threat to a subset of the patient population.The occurrence of hematological malignancies and tumor treatment can lead to immunosuppression in patients,which significantly increases the risk of serious complications,severe incidence and mortality after SARS-CoV-2 infection.The treatment of a patient with follicular lymphoma infected with SARS-CoV-2 was described in detail.The patient remained positive for RT-PCR tests during the hospitalization for nearly 90 days.After undergoing 5 rounds of antiviral treatment,along with glucocorticoid anti-inflammatory therapy,low-molecular-weight heparin for anticoagulation,antibiotics for infection control,and respiratory support through the use of a ventilator,the patient eventually obtained negative result of the RT-PCR test.Subsequently,the patient was successfully weaned from mechanical ventilation and discharged.By summarizing the treatment process of this case,we hoped to provide reference and experience for future clinical diagnosis and treatment.

Background::Influenza and pneumococcal vaccination are a priority in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). However, limited information is available on vaccination coverage among patients with acute exacerbations of COPD (AECOPD) in China. This study aimed to determine the rates and associated factors of influenza and pneumococcal vaccination in patients hospitalized with AECOPD.Methods::Baseline data from a national, multicenter, hospital-based study that included adult inpatients with AECOPD between 2017 and 2021 were analyzed. The outcomes of interest were the influenza vaccination in the past year and the pneumococcal vaccination in the past 5 years. To ensure national representativeness, rates were weighted according to the distribution of hospital levels and types enrolled in this study. Multivariable Poisson regression based on mixed-effects models were used to determine the associated factors. The independent variables included the region and hospital features where the participants were located, sociodemographic characteristics (age, sex, rural/urban residence, education, etc.), and clinical indicators (COPD disease history, lung function parameters, comorbidities, etc.). The treatment profiles of the vaccinated and unvaccinated participants were compared.Results::Of 6949 eligible participants, the weighted rates of influenza/pneumococcal, influenza, and pneumococcal vaccination were 2.72% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 2.34%-3.10%), 2.09% (95% CI: 1.76%-2.43%), and 1.25% (95% CI: 0.99%-1.51%), respectively. In multivariable models, age ≥60 years (60-69 years, odds ratio [OR]: 1.90, 95% CI: 1.11-3.25; ≥80 years, OR: 2.00, 95% CI: 1.06-3.78), geographical regions (Northern China relative to Eastern China, OR: 5.09, 95% CI: 1.96-13.21), urban residence (OR: 1.69, 95% CI: 1.07-2.66), a higher education level (junior high school, OR: 1.77, 95% CI: 1.21-2.58; senior high school or above, OR: 2.61, 95% CI: 1.69-4.03), former smoking (OR: 1.79, 95% CI: 1.15-2.79), and regular inhaled medication treatment (OR: 3.28, 95% CI: 2.29-4.70) were positively associated with vaccination. Patients who had experienced severe exacerbations in the past year were less likely to be vaccinated (OR: 0.65, 95% CI: 0.45-0.96). Compared with unvaccinated participants, vaccinated participants adhered better to pharmacological and non-pharmacological treatment.Conclusions::Influenza and pneumococcal vaccination coverage are extremely low. Urgent measures are necessary to increase vaccination coverage among inpatients with AECOPD in China.

Objective To design and test the reliability and validity of patient admission nursing assessment sheet of integrated Chinese and westem medicine ward.Methods On the basis of literature research,with traditional Chinese medicine"look,hear,ask and pulse-taking"as the basic framework,physical discrimination as the evaluation outcome,combined with the general nursing evaluation points of patients admitted to hospital,we designed the patient admission nursing assessment sheet of integrated Chinese and westem medicine ward,and then we adopted the Delphi method to conduct an inquiry on the draft of the admission sheet.In April 2022,3 clinical nurses were selected to evaluate 160 admitted patients from Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine Department of a tertiary A comprehensive hospital in Hubei Province,and Fleiss'Kappa coefficient and content validity coefficient were used to test the reliability and validity.Results The recovery rates of the 2 rounds of expert correspondence questionnaires were 95.45％and 100％.The authority coefficients were 0.931 and 0.957;the Kendall harmony coefficients were 0.101 and 0.106(P＜0.01);the importance scores of articles were 4.13～4.82;the coefficient of variation was 0.07～0.19 in 2nd round of expert correspondence.The final nursing assessment list for inpatients in the integrated Chinese and Western medicine ward included 3 parts:general demographic data assessment,four-Chinese medicine diagnosis assessment/physical discrimination,and nursing risk assessment,and there are 32 evaluation contents in the assessment sheet.The Fleiss'Kappa coefficient of this assessment sheet was 0.602(P＜0.001);the item content validity index was 0.857～1.000,and the overall content validity index was 0.920.Conclusion The admission nursing assessment sheet for inpatients in integrated Chinese and Westem medicine wards has good reliability and validity,and it is suitable for the integrated Chinese and Westem medicine wards.
