Objective To develop the Expert Consensus on Sensitive Indicators for Assessment of the Quality of Nursing in Operating Theatre and provide a scientific and practical guidance for improving the quality of nursing in operating theatre.Methods The writing team established by the Operating Room Nursing Professional Committee of Guangdong Nursing Association conducted systematic literature retrieval and screening,and used the updated clinical Guidelines for Research and Evaluation Ⅱ in UK 2017.AGREE Ⅱ and the evidence evaluation system of the Australian JBI(Joanna Briggs Institute,JBI)Evidence-Based Health Care Center evidence level system(2016 Edition)comprehensively analyzed the evidence related to the sensitive indicators for evaluating the quality of operating room nursing and the suggestions of the writing group members.The first draft was formed based on the three-dimensional quality evaluation theoretical framework of"structure-process-result".Through the Delphi method,after two rounds of expert consultations and members'votes,the first draft was deeply revised and improved.Results Based on the three-dimensional quality evaluation theoretical framework of"structure-process-outcome"proposed by American scholar Donabedian,the expert consensus finally included five primary indicators:basic nursing quality,quality indicators of patient safety,quality indicators of hospital infection control,quality indicators of medication and safety management,and quality indicators of specialised nursing in operating theatre.The secondary indicators consisted of one structural indicator(management of commonly used instrument and equipment in operating theatre)and 17 process indicators(e.g.,infusion and blood transfusion management,body temperature management,etc.).The tertiary indicators included 26 process indicators and 11 outcome indicators(e.g.,incidence of adverse reactions of infusion during surgery,incidence of intra-operative hypothermia,etc.).Conclusion The evidence-and guideline-based Expert Consensus on Sensitive Indicators for Assessment of the Quality of Nursing in Operating Theatre based on eviclence and guidelines was established through rigorous evidence-based methods.It is operational and practical,and offers theoretical support and practical guidance for the managers of operating theatre to improve the quality of nursing.

Objective:To block family transmission of a small fragment copy number variation (CNV) with combined 1 Mb resolution preimplantation genetic testing for aneuploidy (PGT-A) and target region preimplantation genetic testing for monogenic disease (PGT-M) strategies.Methods:A couple who attended the Reproductive and Genetic Medicine Center of Dalian Women and Children′s Medical Center (Group) in 2024 were selected as the study subject. Upon the woman′s two pregnancies, ultrasound examination revealed fetal abnormalities, and CNV-seq based on low-depth whole genome sequencing revealed that both fetuses had carried a maternal 17p12 microduplication of approximately 1.43 Mb. Microduplication in this region has been associated with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 1A. In view of the fact that the resolution of conventional PGT-A detection cannot meet the requirement of small fragment CNV analysis, and conventional PGT-M assay cannot directly determine the CNV, two detection schemes were adopted. On the one hand, PGT-A testing with 1 Mb resolution was performed on the embryo to directly determine whether it carries the above microduplication. At the same time, the couple and their fetus were subjected to chromosomal typing scheme for the 17p12 region to indirectly identify embryos carrying the risk chromosome for microduplication. This study has been approved by the Medical Ethics Committee of the Hospital (Ethics No: FEJT-KY-2025-51).Results:Three embryos were tested after the first PGT cycle, of which 1 was not carrying the pathogenic variant and was euploid, whilst the other 2 embryos were carrying the 17p12 microduplication, and 1 of them was aneuploid. After genetic counseling, the euploid embryo without the 17p12 microduplication was selected for transfer, and prenatal diagnosis based on amniotic fluid sample showed that the fetal chromosomal karyotype was normal and did not carry the 17p12 microduplication.Conclusion:The combined application of high-resolution PGT-A and PGT-M typing detection of the target region can effectively block family transmission of the CNVs of small fragments.

Objective To investigate the effects and mechanism of Dahuang Lingxian Prescription on bile duct reaction of cholestatic liver fibrosis rats caused by bile duct ligation.Methods A total of 40 SD rats were randomly divided into blank group,model group,ursodeoxycholic acid group and Dahuang Lingxian Prescription group,with 10 rats in each group.Except for the blank group,the remaining groups of rats underwent bile duct ligation surgery to establish a cholestatic liver fibrosis model.After surgery,the ursodeoxycholic acid group was given ursodeoxycholic acid solution by gavage,Dahuang Lingxian Prescription group was given Dahuang Lingxian Prescription solution by gavage,and the blank group and model group were given equal volume of normal saline by gavage,once a day for 3 consecutive weeks.The activities of serum AST,ALT,ALP,GGT and the contents of TBIL,TBA were tetected,the morphology of liver tissue was observed by HE staining,and the liver fibrosis was observed by Masson staining,immunohistochromic staining and Western blot were used to detect the expressions of CK19,CK7,EpCAM and SOX9 proteins.Results Compared with the blank group,the liver surface of the model group rats was rough,with a harder texture and obvious graininess,HE staining showed damage to the liver lobule structure,forming pseudo lobules,a large number of bile duct hyperplasia and inflammatory cell infiltration,and a significant increase in collagen fiber deposition(P<0.01);the activities of serum AST,ALT,ALP,GGT,as well as the contents of TBIL and TBA significantly increased(P<0.01);the positive expressions of CK19,CK7 and EpCAM in liver tissue significantly increased(P<0.01),and the protein expressions of CK19,CK7,EpCAM and SOX9 significantly increased(P<0.01).Compared with the model group,the appearance and texture of the liver of the rats in the ursodeoxycholic acid group and Dahuang Lingxian Prescription group were relatively softer,the lobular structure was less damaged,the inflammatory cells infiltration was less,the collagen fiber deposition was significantly reduced(P<0.01),the activities of serum AST,ALT,ALP,GGT,and the contents of TBIL and TBA were significantly decreased(P<0.01);the expressions of TBA and TBIL were significantly decreased(P<0.01),the positive expressions of CK19,CK7 and EpCAM significantly decreased(P<0.01),and the protein expression of CK19,CK7,EpCAM and SOX9 significantly decreased(P<0.01).Conclusion Dahuang Lingxian Prescription can inhibit the bile duct reaction associated with liver progenitor cells,decrease the expression of CK19,CK7,EpCAM and SOX9,and thus improve the cholestatic liver fibrosis of rats induced by bile duct ligation.

Objective:This study aimed to explore the utility of transcutaneous electrical acupoint stimulation (TEAS) combined with skin sympathetic response (SSR) in assessing the effectiveness of perigastric autonomic nerve preservation during radical gastrectomy.Methods:A retrospective cohort analysis was conducted involving 221 patients who underwent laparoscopic radical gastrectomy at the Department of Gastric Surgery, Taizhou People's Hospital, affiliated with Nanjing Medical University, between June 2022 and September 2024. The cohort comprised 109 patients who underwent laparoscopic radical total gastrectomy without autonomic nerve preservation (total gastrectomy without nerve preservation group). Additionally, 112 patients underwent laparoscopic radical distal gastrectomy, including 34 patients who received autonomic nerve preservation (nerve preservation group) and 78 patients who did not (without nerve preservation group). TEAS was administered at the Zusanli and Tianshu acupoints one day before and one day after surgery, during which SSR latency and voltage amplitudes in the upper and lower extremities were recorded and compared across groups. Differences in SSR latency and voltage amplitude between the nerve preservation and non-nerve preservation groups of the distal gastrectomy cohort were also analyzed. Further, TEAS was applied at the same acupoints for 15 minutes on the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd postoperative days, and changes in intestinal sounds and intestinal functional recovery time were monitored. Surgical parameters, including operative duration, intraoperative blood loss, and harvested lymph node, were documented. Postoperative inflammatory indicators, including interleukin-6 (IL-6), C-reactive protein (CRP), procalcitonin (PCT), and the incidence of anastomotic leakage, were evaluated. At three months postoperatively, gastroscopy was performed to assess residual gastric food and bile reflux. Additionally, the prognostic nutritional index (PNI) was evaluated across all patient groups.Results:Following total gastrectomy, TEAS of Zusanli combined with arms' SSR revealed a latency of (23 59.71±410.55) ms and a voltage amplitude of (0.43±1.67) mV; for the legs, latency was (2 596.88±369.01) ms and voltage amplitude was (0.25±0.08) mV. TEAS of Tianshu combined with arms' SSR demonstrated a latency of (2 746.47±224.37) ms and a voltage amplitude of (0.31±0.14) mV; for the legs, latency was (2 891.90±193.61) ms and voltage amplitude was (0.19±0.72) mV. Postoperative latency was significantly prolonged, and voltage amplitude was markedly reduced (all P < 0.01). In the distal gastrectomy with nerve preservation group, TEAS of Zusanli combined with arms' SSR showed a latency of (1 668.04±261.91) ms and a voltage amplitude of (0.78±0.26) mV; for the legs, latency was (1 568.86±220.09) ms and voltage amplitude was (0.61±0.24) mV. TEAS of Tianshu combined with arms' SSR demonstrated a latency of (1 519.36±206.99) ms and a voltage amplitude of (0.66±0.34) mV; for the legs, latency was (2 004.80±508.53) ms and voltage amplitude was (0.55±0.28) mV. In the distal gastrectomy without nerve preservation group, TEAS of Zusanli combined with arms' SSR revealed a latency of (2 385.95±710.27) ms and a voltage amplitude of (0.23±0.11) mV; for the legs, latency was (2 506.81±779.37) ms and voltage amplitude was (0.26±1.29) mV. TEAS of Tianshu combined with arms' SSR indicated a latency of (2 697.78±385.55) ms and a voltage amplitude of (0.21±0.14) mV; for the legs, latency was (2 949.14±506.61) ms and voltage amplitude was (0.17±0.11) mV. The group without nerve preservation exhibited significantly prolonged latencies and reduced voltage amplitudes (all P<0.01). No statistically significant differences were observed between the groups in operative time, intraoperative bleeding, the number of dissected lymph nodes, inflammatory indicators (IL-6, CRP, PCT) at 3 days postoperatively, or anastomotic leakage rates (all P>0.05). In the group without nerve preservation, bowel sounds on postoperative days 1, 2, and 3 were (0.36±0.58), (1.04±0.97), and (1.74±1.10) times/min, respectively, with bowel function recovery time of (62.24±9.91) hours. The PNI at 3 months postoperatively was (37.42±3.01). Incidences of food residue in the residual stomach and bile reflux were 21.79% (17/78) and 29.49% (23/78), respectively. In the group with nerve preservation, bowel sounds on postoperative days 1, 2, and 3 were (0.76±0.82), (2.03±1.34), and (3.71±1.27) times/min, respectively, with bowel function recovery time of (44.94±8.05) hours. The PNI at 3 months postoperatively was (41.34±3.40). Incidences of food residue and bile reflux were 5.88% (2/34) and 11.76% (4/34), respectively. Statistically significant differences were observed between the groups (all P < 0.05). Conclusion:TEAS of Zusanli and Tianshu combined with SSR provides an objective measure for assessing the preservation of perigastric autonomic nerves during radical gastrectomy.

Objective:To explore the clinical efficacy of double tract reconstruction and single flap valvuloplasty technique in laparoscopic proximal gastrectomy.Methods:A retrospective cohort study was adopted to analyze the clinical data of 65 patients with gastric cancer who underwent radical proximal gastrectomy at Taizhou People's Hospital Affiliated to Nanjing Medical University from July 2019 to April 2024. According to the different reconstruction methods, the patients were divided into the double tract reconstruction group (double tract; n=43) and oblique anastomosis of esophageal-gastric mucosal window with single flap valvuloplasty technique group (single flap n=22). The baseline data, surgical and postoperative recovery indicators, postoperative pathological results, gastroesophageal reflux at postoperative 6 months, and nutritional status at postoperative 1 year were compared between the two groups. Results:Comparisons of operative time, gastrointestinal reconstruction time, number of lymph nodes dissected, postoperative intestinal function recovery time, total protein, plasma albumin, hemoglobin, and lymphocyte count at 1 week postoperatively, prognostic nutritional index (PNI), time to normalization of postoperative white blood cell count and C-reactive protein, length of hospital stay, hospital costs, and incidence of postoperative pulmonary infection or anastomotic leakage between the two groups showed no statistically significant differences (all P>0.05). However, compared with the double tract group, the single muscle flap group had significantly higher intraoperative blood loss ( P<0.001), higher maximum postoperative body temperature ( P=0.004), and a significantly higher proportion of patients with pleural effusion ≥2 cm ( P=0.029).No statistically significant differences were observed between the two groups in terms of tumor length, length of esophageal involvement, Siewert classification, tumor differentiation degree, neural invasion, lymphovascular invasion, number of metastatic lymph nodes, tumor T stage and N stage, or UICC TNM staging for gastric cancer (all P>0.05). Nevertheless, the minimum distance of the lower resection margin in the double tract group was significantly longer than that in the single muscle flap group, with a statistically significant difference between the groups ( P<0.001). At 6 months postoperatively, results from the Quality of Life Questionnaire-Core 30 (QLQ-C30), Quality of Life Questionnaire-Stomach 22 (QLQ-ST022), Reflux Symptom Index scores, Visick grading, and gastroscopy (Los Angeles classification) all indicated that the incidence of reflux esophagitis in the double tract group was significantly lower than that in the single muscle flap group (all P<0.001). Gastrointestinal contrast examination showed no anastomotic stenosis in either group; gastroesophageal reflux occurred in 5 cases (11.6%) in the double tract group and 4 cases (18.2%) in the single muscle flap group, with no statistically significant difference (χ2=0.524, P=0.469). Gastroscopy results revealed that the incidence of reflux esophagitis at 6 months postoperatively was 9.3% (4/43) in the double tract group and 59.1% (13/22) in the single muscle flap group, with a statistically significant difference between the two groups (χ2=18.680, P<0.001).At 1 year postoperatively, the dual-chamber group showed better performance in body mass index(BMI), proportion of a decrease in BMI, plasma albumin, and PNI compared with the single muscle flap group, with statistically significant differences (all P<0.05). There were no statistically significant differences in hemoglobin or lymphocyte count between the two groups (all P>0.05). During 1 year of follow-up, one case of anastomotic recurrence occurred in each group, with no statistically significant difference between the groups ( P=0.624). Conclusions:Both proximal gastrectomy with double-tract anastomosis and esophagogastric mucosal window oblique anastomosis combined with single muscular flap valvuloplasty for digestive tract reconstruction are safe and feasible. However, double-tract anastomosis can better prevent the occurrence of postoperative reflux esophagitis, improve the patient's postoperative nutritional status, and enhance the patient's quality of life.

Objective:To explore the clinical efficacy of double tract reconstruction and single flap valvuloplasty technique in laparoscopic proximal gastrectomy.Methods:A retrospective cohort study was adopted to analyze the clinical data of 65 patients with gastric cancer who underwent radical proximal gastrectomy at Taizhou People's Hospital Affiliated to Nanjing Medical University from July 2019 to April 2024. According to the different reconstruction methods, the patients were divided into the double tract reconstruction group (double tract; n=43) and oblique anastomosis of esophageal-gastric mucosal window with single flap valvuloplasty technique group (single flap n=22). The baseline data, surgical and postoperative recovery indicators, postoperative pathological results, gastroesophageal reflux at postoperative 6 months, and nutritional status at postoperative 1 year were compared between the two groups. Results:Comparisons of operative time, gastrointestinal reconstruction time, number of lymph nodes dissected, postoperative intestinal function recovery time, total protein, plasma albumin, hemoglobin, and lymphocyte count at 1 week postoperatively, prognostic nutritional index (PNI), time to normalization of postoperative white blood cell count and C-reactive protein, length of hospital stay, hospital costs, and incidence of postoperative pulmonary infection or anastomotic leakage between the two groups showed no statistically significant differences (all P>0.05). However, compared with the double tract group, the single muscle flap group had significantly higher intraoperative blood loss ( P<0.001), higher maximum postoperative body temperature ( P=0.004), and a significantly higher proportion of patients with pleural effusion ≥2 cm ( P=0.029).No statistically significant differences were observed between the two groups in terms of tumor length, length of esophageal involvement, Siewert classification, tumor differentiation degree, neural invasion, lymphovascular invasion, number of metastatic lymph nodes, tumor T stage and N stage, or UICC TNM staging for gastric cancer (all P>0.05). Nevertheless, the minimum distance of the lower resection margin in the double tract group was significantly longer than that in the single muscle flap group, with a statistically significant difference between the groups ( P<0.001). At 6 months postoperatively, results from the Quality of Life Questionnaire-Core 30 (QLQ-C30), Quality of Life Questionnaire-Stomach 22 (QLQ-ST022), Reflux Symptom Index scores, Visick grading, and gastroscopy (Los Angeles classification) all indicated that the incidence of reflux esophagitis in the double tract group was significantly lower than that in the single muscle flap group (all P<0.001). Gastrointestinal contrast examination showed no anastomotic stenosis in either group; gastroesophageal reflux occurred in 5 cases (11.6%) in the double tract group and 4 cases (18.2%) in the single muscle flap group, with no statistically significant difference (χ2=0.524, P=0.469). Gastroscopy results revealed that the incidence of reflux esophagitis at 6 months postoperatively was 9.3% (4/43) in the double tract group and 59.1% (13/22) in the single muscle flap group, with a statistically significant difference between the two groups (χ2=18.680, P<0.001).At 1 year postoperatively, the dual-chamber group showed better performance in body mass index(BMI), proportion of a decrease in BMI, plasma albumin, and PNI compared with the single muscle flap group, with statistically significant differences (all P<0.05). There were no statistically significant differences in hemoglobin or lymphocyte count between the two groups (all P>0.05). During 1 year of follow-up, one case of anastomotic recurrence occurred in each group, with no statistically significant difference between the groups ( P=0.624). Conclusions:Both proximal gastrectomy with double-tract anastomosis and esophagogastric mucosal window oblique anastomosis combined with single muscular flap valvuloplasty for digestive tract reconstruction are safe and feasible. However, double-tract anastomosis can better prevent the occurrence of postoperative reflux esophagitis, improve the patient's postoperative nutritional status, and enhance the patient's quality of life.
