Objective To explore the effectiveness of building block assembly games in the upper limb functional exercise of school-aged children with peripherally inserted central catheter catheterization.Methods Using convenience sampling,90 catheterized children who met the inclusion criteria in the pediatric ward of a tertiary hospital in Henan Province from November 2022 to April 2023 were selected as research subjects.They were randomly divided into an experimental group and a control group,with 45 cases in each group.The experimental group participated in building block assembly games in addition to conventional ball-gripping exercises,while the control group engaged solely in conventional ball-gripping exercises.The compliance rates of upper limb exercises,time average peak flow rate of axillary vein of the catheterization side,and the incidence of catheter-related complications were compared between the 2 groups.Results During the study,2 cases in the experimental group and 3 in the control group dropped out,resulting in 43 cases in the experimental group and 42 in the control group.The compliance rate of upper limb exercises in the experimental group during hospitalization was 93.03％,significantly higher than 64.29％in the control group(P＜0.001).On the third day after catheterization,the time average peak flow rate of axillary vein of the catheterization side was(5.58±1.24)cm/s and(5.37±1.24)cm/s on the seventh day in the experimental group,compared to(3.87±1.06)cm/s and(3.56±0.81)cm/s,respectively,in the control group.These differences were statistically significant(P＜0.001).The incidence of catheter-related thrombosis in the experimental group was 4.65％,significantly lower than 21.43％in the control group(P=0.021).The rates of bleeding at the puncture site and catheter displacement in the experimental group were both 4.65％,compared to 7.14％and 4.76％,respectively,in the control group.These differences were not statistically significant(both P＞0.05).Conclusion Incorporating building block assembly games into routine ball-gripping exercises can improve the compliance of upper limb exercises in children with PICC placement,improve the blood flow velocity in the axillary vein of the catheterization upper limb,and reduce the incidence of catheter-related thrombosis,without increasing the risk of bleeding at the puncture site or catheter displacement.

Objective To identify the factors associated with frailty in lung transplant patients by a meta-analysis.Methods Computerized search was performed for studies on the influencing factors of frailty in lung transplant patients in the CNKI,WanFangData,VIP,CBM,PubMed,Web of Science,Embase,Elsevier ScienceDirect and CINAHL databases.The search was conducted from the time of database construction to November 2023.Literature screening,quality assessment,and data extraction were performed independently by 2 investigators,and Meta-analysis was performed using Stata 17.0 software.Results 10 cohort studies,including 1 999 patients,were finally included,and 13 influencing factors were extracted,including advanced age(OR=1.05),female(OR=2.50),BMI(OR=0.38),diagnosis of primary pulmonary disease(OR=2.90),6MWD(OR=0.34),and lung allocation score(OR=0.69),FVC(OR=0.60),pre-transplant frailty(OR=0.81),hypoproteinemia(OR=4.12),hemoglobin(OR=0.50),anemia(OR=4.37),length of ICU stay(OR=1.24),and total length of stay(OR=1.05).Short Physical Performance Battery is an assessment tool for frailty in lung transplant patients,with an incidence of frailty in 24％before transplantation and 50％in post-transplantation.Fried Frailty Phenotype is an assessment tool for frailty in lung transplant patients,with a pre-transplant frailty incidence of 30％.Conclusion There are many factors involved in the incidence of frailty in lung transplant patients,and nursing staff should dynamically evaluate the frailty of lung transplant patients,and give individualized and precise interventions in combination with a multidisciplinary model to improve or delay the progression of frailty.

Objective To evaluate the effect of remote interventions with digital health technologies in lung transplant patients.Methods Databases,including CKNI,Wangfang,VIP,CMB,Cochrane Library,PubMed,Embase,Web of Science,Scopus and BMJ Best Practice were searched from their inception to July 2023.There were 2 researchers who independently screened and extracted the literature,and then evaluated quality of the included studies.Meta-analysis was performed using RevMan 5.2.Results 10 studies with 1 262 patients were included.The results of meta-analysis showed that compared with conventional intervention,remote intervention based on digital health technology could improve self-monitoring compliance of lung transplant patients[0R=0.64,95％CI(0.46,0.88),P=0.006],improve quality of life including mental health status[OR=3.08,95％CI(0.41,5.74),P=0.020]and physical health status[OR=3.81,95％CI(1.19,6.43),P=0.004].In terms of the intervention forms,the application-based remote intervention had better self-monitoring compliance,and the difference was statistically significant(P=0.007).However,in terms of the comparison of readmission rate[OR=1.73,95％CI(0.98,3.04),P=0.060],anxiety[OR=-0.12,95％CI(-1.36,1.11),P=0.850],and depression[OR=0.62,95％CI(-0.80,2.03),P=0.390],the effect of intervention was unclear.Conclusion Remote intervention based on digital health technology can improve self-monitoring compliance and quality of life in lung transplant patients;applications are the optimal form of intervention.Limited by the quality and quantity of included studies and the heterogeneity of study results,more high-quality studies are needed to further verify the effects of digital health technology on readmission rates,anxiety and depression of lung transplant patients.

Objective To investigate the incidence and risk factors of post-transplant diabetes mellitus(PTDM)in adult lung transplant recipients.Methods Conducting a convenience sampling method,we retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of lung transplant recipients from January 2020 to December 2022 at a tertiary A hospital in Hangzhou,Zhejiang Province.According to the PTDM diagnostic criteria,lung transplant recipients are divided into a PTDM group and a non-PTDM group.The incidence rate of PTDM is calculated,and the influencing factors for PTDM occurrence are analyzed using both univariate and multivariate logistic regression methods.Results A total of 140 patients were included in this study,and 54 lung transplant recipients developed PTDM within 6 months,with an incidence of 38.57％.Univariate analysis showed that there were significant differences in age,gender,BMI,smoking history,pre-operative glycated albumin,pre-operative fasting blood glucose,early post-operative blood glucose and pre-operative creatinine between the 2 groups(P＜0.05).Multivariate Logistic analysis showed that gender(OR=5.283),BMI(OR=6.122),pre-operative glycated albumin(OR=1.330),and early post-operative blood glucose(0R=1.444)were the influencing factors.Conclusion Lung transplant recipients who were male,BMI ≥24.0,with high levels of glycated albumin before surgery,and high blood sugar early after surgery had a higher risk of developing PTDM.Clinical nurses can formulate relevant nursing measures according to the influencing factors to prevent the occurrence of PTDM.

Objective:To understand and compare the clinical characteristics of children and adults infected with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) Omicron variant BA.5 and BA.2 subtypes in Shanghai City.Methods:The clinical data of 524 children hospitalized with coronavirus disease 2019(COVID-19) at the Children′s Hospital of Fudan University during the period of BA.5 predominance from December 1, 2022 to January 20, 2023 were collected, which included age, gender, clinical symptoms and laboratory examination results. And the clinical data of household close contacts were also collected. The clinical data of children and their household contacts infected with Omicron BA.2 subtypes during the period of BA.2 predominance from April 4 to April 30, 2022 were collected and compared.The clinical characteristic of critical and non-critical cases, child and adult cases during the period of BA.5 predominance were compared.Statistical analyses were conducted using independent samples t-test, Mann-Whitney U test, chi-square test or Fisher′s exact test. Results:The age of 524 hospitalized children was five days to 16 years old. Among them, 301(57.4%) were male and 223(42.6%) were female. Additionally, there were 29 critical cases (5.5%) and 495 non-critical cases (94.5%). Critical cases had significantly higher fever peak, more shortness of breath occurrence, more pneumonia and underlying diseases compared to non-critical cases, with statistically significant differences ( t=12.06, χ2=34.90, 10.04 and 31.10, respectively, all P<0.05). Regarding laboratory examinations, critical cases exhibited significantly higher frequencies of decreased lymphocyte count, elevated levels of C-reactive protein, procalcitonin and interleukin-6, abnormal liver function and kidney function, and abnormal creatine kinase isoenzyme compared to non-critical cases, with statistically significant differences ( χ2=8.18, Z=-4.61, Z=-4.28, Z=-5.13, χ2 =195.90, Fisher′s exact test and χ2=136.13, respectively, all P<0.05). Non-critical children cases infected with Omicron variant BA.5 subtype exhibited a higher proportion of symptomatic infections compared to adults. Among children, the occurrence rates of fever and gastrointestinal symptoms (nausea, vomiting, diarrhea) were higher, whereas among adults, the occurrence rate of cough was higher. The differences were statistically significant ( χ2=11.16, 11.83, 8.50 and 28.14, respectively, all P<0.05).From December 1, 2022 to January 20, 2023, a total of 588 children cases and 791 adult cases were collected, while from April 4 to April 30, 2022, a total of 355 children cases and 755 adult cases were collected.In the children group, the occurrence rates of cough, convulsions and critical cases were higher in BA.5 subtype-infected children compared to those infected with the BA.2 subtype, with statistically significant differences ( χ2=37.95, 40.78 and 15.54, respectively, all P<0.001).In the adult group, BA.5 subtype-infected individuals had higher fever peak, longer duration of fever, and higher occurrence of fever, cough and gastrointestinal symptoms, compared to those infected with the BA.2 subtype.The differences were statistically significant ( t=-4.40, Z=-9.64, χ2=47.29, 124.09 and 29.90, respectively, all P<0.001). Conclusions:During the peak periods of BA.5 subtype of the Omicron variant in Shanghai City, critical cases have severe systemic symptoms and a higher prevalence of underlying diseases compared to non-critical cases. Among non-critical cases infected with BA.5 subtype, the proportion of symptomatic infections in children is higher than adults, with fever and gastrointestinal symptoms more common than adults, while cough symptoms are more common seen in adults.The occurrence rate of convulsions and critical cases is higher in children infected with variant BA.5 subtype compared to those infected with BA.2 subtype.The systemic symptoms are more severe in adults infected with BA.5 subtype compared to those infected with BA.2 subtype.

Sepsis is one of the common severe diseases caused by the dysregulated host response to infection， which seriously threatens the life and health of human beings all over the world. The incidence and mortality of the disease are extremely high， and it has always been an urgent problem to be solved in the field of acute and critical diseases. At present， anti-infection， fluid resuscitation， mechanical ventilation and other programs are most used in clinic to treat sepsis， but their poor prognosis and high cost and other issues remain to be resolved. Therefore， it is necessary to explore a new， efficient， safe and inexpensive drug and treatment model at this stage. The treatment of traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） is based on syndrome differentiation and holistic concept. It can effectively regulate the progression of sepsis， maintain the homeostasis of the body， and has fewer adverse reactions. It has achieved good clinical results. In recent years， a large number of studies have shown that TCM can reduce the inflammatory response by regulating the Toll-like receptor 4（TLR4） signaling pathway， thereby reducing the severity and mortality of sepsis patients. However， there is still a lack of systematic exposition of TCM regulating TLR4 signaling pathway in the treatment of sepsis. Therefore， this article summarizes the relationship between TLR4 signaling pathway and sepsis and the mechanism of TCM in the disease by searching and consulting relevant literature in recent years. It is found that some Chinese medicine monomers and active ingredients， Chinese medicine compounds and Chinese medicine preparations can effectively reduce systemic inflammatory response， repair organ damage and improve the prognosis of sepsis by inhibiting the activation of TLR4 signaling pathway. However， due to various limitations， some studies have directly focused on the differential expression and function of TLR4， ignoring the downstream molecular expression and phenotypic effects of TLR4. The alternative mechanism， relationship and specific molecular mechanism of the pathway are still unclear. There are problems such as unclear pharmacokinetics and unclear mechanism in the pro- and anti-inflammatory balance， which need to be further studied and explored in order to provide new ideas for the potential treatment and drug development for sepsis.

BACKGROUND:Nowadays,posterior cruciate ligament injury caused by a sports injury or vehicle injury is more common than people think.Posterior cruciate ligament reconstruction is one of the main treatment methods,but there are still a lot of controversies about the surgical method and ligament selection of posterior cruciate ligament reconstruction. OBJECTIVE:To comprehensively analyze the global application trend of posterior cruciate ligament reconstruction and identify promising research hotspots of posterior cruciate ligament reconstruction based on bibliometrics and visual analysis. METHODS:Publications(articles and reviews)related to posterior cruciate ligament reconstruction from 2000 to 2022 were retrieved from the Web of Science(WOS).The country,institution,publication year,author,journal,average citations per item,H index,title,keywords of publication,and the top 25 cited articles were extracted and analyzed in detail.The VOSviewer/citespace/Pajek software was used to analyze the co-occurrence result of keywords to predict the hotspots of posterior cruciate ligament reconstruction. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:A total of 664 articles were included.(1)In the past 22 years,the number of posterior cruciate ligament reconstruction articles has shown an increasing trend in general.The top 3 countries(the USA,China,and South Korea)accounted for 65.51%of all articles published.The USA has the largest number of publications.The University of Pittsburgh is the largest contributor.Knee Surgery Sports Traumatol Arthrosc and American Journal of Sports Medicine are the most influential journals.Laprade,Robert F.is the professor who has published the most articles in the field of posterior cruciate ligament reconstruction,and Fanelli,GC is the professor who has the highest total chain strength in the field of posterior cruciate ligament reconstruction.(2)The research direction can be divided into the following five clusters:"posterior cruciate ligament anatomical and biomechanical studies","posterior cruciate ligament reconstruction prognosis,outcome,and complications","posterior cruciate ligament reconstruction surgical method and tendon selection","surgical technique",and"posterior cruciate ligament tear combined with multiple ligament injury".(3)It is concluded that in terms of the trend of previous years,an increasing number of articles related to posterior cruciate ligament reconstruction will be published in the future.The USA is a world leader in the field of posterior cruciate ligament reconstruction.China and South Korea presented great potential in this area.Anatomical and biomechanical research of posterior cruciate ligament and posterior cruciate ligament reconstruction methods and the selection of tendons may be the future hotspots in the field of posterior cruciate ligament reconstruction.

BACKGROUND:Medial open wedge high tibial osteotomy is an effective procedure for preserving the knee joint in patients with medial compartmental osteoarthritis.Previous studies have demonstrated that the forgotten joint score provides a lower ceiling effect and consistency of medial open wedge high tibial osteotomy outcomes compared to traditional assessment tools. OBJECTIVE:To identify predictive factors associated with the occurrence of a forgotten joint after medial open wedge high tibial osteotomy. METHODS:117 patients with medial open wedge high tibial osteotomy who were treated at First Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine were selected,including 35 males and 82 females,with an average age of 61 years.They were followed up for at least 2 years.Patients were divided into a forgotten joint group(n=28)and a non-forgotten joint group(n=89)by evaluating whether they achieved forgotten joint after surgery.Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed with preoperative patient characteristics and surgery-related factors as potential predictors. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)There were significant differences in the proximal medial tibial angle between the two groups before surgery(P<0.05).There were significant differences in the forgotten joint score,Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score,knee society knee score,function score,and patients joint perception between the two groups after surgery(P<0.05).There was a significant difference between the hip-knee-ankle angle and the medial proximal tibial angle after operation(P<0.05).(2)Univariate Logistic regression analysis showed that the medial proximal tibial angle had a significant influence on the forgotten joint before operation[OR=0.755,95%CI(0.635-0.897),P<0.001].There were significant effects on the forgotten joint of hip-knee-ankle angle and medial proximal tibial angle[OR=1.546,95%CI(1.242-1.924),P<0.001;OR=0.815,95%CI(0.713-0.931),P=0.003].(3)Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that preoperative K-L grade 1 was a favorable factor for obtaining forgotten joints.Preoperative medial proximal tibial angle and postoperative hip-knee-ankle angle were independent predictors of forgetting joints,and they had a curvilinear relationship with the probability of achieving forgetting joints.When preoperative medial proximal tibial angle increased by 1°,the probability of achieving a forgotten joint decreased by 27.7%[OR=0.723,95%CI(0.593-0.882),P<0.001].Conversely,when postoperative hip-knee-ankle angle increased by 1°,the probability of achieving a forgotten joint increased by 46.4%[OR=1.464,95%CI(1.153-1.860),P=0.002].(4)The results showed that patients with preoperative knee osteoarthritis K-L grade 1,small medial proximal tibial angle(<85.5°),and large postoperative hip-knee-ankle angle(>176.0°)were predictors of forgotten joint.

Objective To investigate the occupational risk perception of surgeons in a tertiary hospital in Suzhou and ex-plore the relationship between occupational risk perception and self-efficacy,and to provide suggestions for improving surgeons'mental health.Methods The occupational risk perception scale of surgeons was designed to investigate,and 194 valid question-naires were collected.Factor analysis,correlation analysis and regression analysis were used to study the data.Results Occupa-tional risk perception of surgeons has multidimensional structures,including physical function risk,economic risk,occupational exposure risk,organizational risk,time risk and psycho-social risk.Age,educational background,professional title and working time are the influencing factors of occupational risk perception,and occupational risk perception of surgeons is significantly nega-tively correlated with self-efficacy.Conclusion The scale designed has good reliability and validity,and surgeons have a high lev-el of occupational risk perception,which can reduce the negative impact of occupational risk perception by improving self-efficacy.
