Objective To analyze the survival status of inpatients with cervical cancer registered in Nantong admitted in Nantong Cancer Hospital from 2002 to 2017. Methods Inpatients with cervical cancer in Nantong Cancer Hospital were followed up from 2017 until December 31, 2020 using active and passive methods to determine their survival outcome. The rate of follow-up loss was statistically analyzed by Chi-square test, the observed survival rate for each year was calculated using the life table, the survival curve was drawn with R language, and the survival rates of patients in different age groups and from different regions were compared with log-rank test (Mantel-Cox). Results A total of 5645 cervical cancer cases were registered. Among them, the survival outcome was recorded for 5512 cases. The success rate of follow-up was 97.64%, and the loss of follow-up rate was 2.36%. The average age of onset was 56.67±12.78 years. The median survival time was 6.54 years, and the 1-, 3-, 5-, and 10-year observed survival rates were 91.50%, 76.95%, 60.99%, and 28.51%, respectively. Among the age groups, significant differences in survival rate were observed between the 15- and 60-year-old groups (χ²=7.469, P=0.006) and between the 15- and 80-year-old groups (χ²=36.317, P < 0.001). No significant difference in survival rate was found between patients from Haimen and Qidong (χ²=2.779, P=0.095) and between patients from Qidong and Tongzhou (χ²=0.515, P=0.473). Significant difference in survival rate was observed among other regions (P < 0.05). Conclusion In this study group, the survival rates of hospital-based patients with cervical cancer significantly differ among the age groups and regions of origin and significantly decreased with age. The high follow-up rate fully reflects the comprehensive effect of the treatment in Nantong Cancer Hospital for registered patients with cervical cancer in Nantong.

ObjectiveTo employ the effective components and antiarrhythmic mechanism of Wenxin Granules （WXKL） by cell membrane chromatography （CMC） and ultra-performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry （UPLC-Q-TOF/MS）， combined with network pharmacology. MethodIn this study， the CMC/UPLC-Q-TOF/MS technique was employed to identify the components in WXKL that could specifically bind to myocardial cell membranes. By utilizing databases such as SwissTarget Prediction and GeneCards， the targets of WXKL's effective components and arrhythmia-related targets were mined. Cytoscape software was used to construct a "component-target-disease" network. Gene ontology（GO） function and Kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes（KEGG） pathway enrichment analyses were carried out， and molecular docking of key components and targets was performed. Finally， further verification was conducted through in vivo experiment of rats. ResultA total of 39 effective components were identified in WXKL. These included 13 components derived from Panax notoginseng， 15 components from Codonopsis pilosula， seven components from Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma， one component from Succinum， one component from Polygonatum odoratum， one component shared by both P. odoratum and C. pilosula， and one component shared by both Panax notoginseng and C. pilosula. Network pharmacology predicted that WXKL had 16 core antiarrhythmic targets and 79 related pathways， mainly involving adrenergic signaling in cardiomyocytes， cyclic guanosine monophosphate （cGMP）/protein kinase G （PKG）， calcium signal， cyclic adenosine monophosphate （cAMP）， interleukin （IL）-17， mitogen-activated protein kinase （MAPK）， and tumor necrosis factor （TNF） signaling pathways. The results of in vivo experiment of rats showed that WXKL significantly improved the expression of β₁-adrenergic receptor （β₁-AR）， cAMP， TNF-α， and calcium voltage-gated channel subunit alpha 1C （CACNA1C）. ConclusionWXKL can exert its antiarrhythmic effects through multiple components， multiple targets， and multiple pathways. This study provides a scientific basis for explaining the potential pharmacodynamic substance foundation and mechanism of action of traditional Chinese medicine in treating arrhythmia.

Objective:To study the clinical characteristics and prognosis of Brucella and other pathogens infections complicated with anti-myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein-IgG associated disorders (MOGAD). Methods:The clinical data of a patient with brucellosis complicated with MOGAD diagnosed in the Department of Neurology of the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University in April 2022 were reported, and related case reports of infection coexisting with MOGAD were reviewed and summarized.Results:This case was a 44-year-old male, with recurrent fever and anorexia, followed by sudden weakness, numbness, pain in both lower limbs and dysuria, and then pain in the right neck. Magnetic resonance imaging showed lesions in the spine and spinal cord. Due to the positive myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibodies in cerebrospinal fluid and serum, and the growth of Brucella in blood culture, he was diagnosed as brucellosis complicated with MOGAD. After anti-brucellosis and glucocorticoid therapy, his symptoms improved. The literature on infection coexisting with MOGAD was reviewed and 22 cases were included. The infection sources included COVID-19, Borrelia burgdorferi, etc. No case of Brucella infection complicated with MOGAD had been reported. The main clinical manifestations of the 22 cases included myelitis (63.6%, 14/22), optic neuritis (40.9%, 9/22), acute disseminated encephalomyelitis (18.2%, 4/22), multiphasic disseminated encephalomyelitis (4.5%, 1/22) and meningoencephalitis (4.5%, 1/22). Magnetic resonance imaging was performed in 20 cases, showing spinal cord lesions in 12 cases (60.0%, 12/20), intracranial lesions in 10 cases (50.0%, 10/20) and optic nerve lesions in 6 cases (30.0%, 6/20). Cerebrospinal fluid examination was performed in 19 patients, of whom 13 (13/19) had increased cerebrospinal fluid cell count and 10 (10/18) had increased cerebrospinal fluid protein. Twenty-two patients received glucocorticoid therapy, of which 95.5% (21/22) responded well and 95.5% (21/22) had a good prognosis. Conclusions:Brucella and other pathogens infection may complicate with MOGAD, with similar clinical manifestations, and glucocorticoid therapy is effective.

Objective:To explore the status quo of self-stigma in diabetic patients and analyze its correlation with self-compassion.Methods:In this cross-sectional study, from December 2020 to January 2021, totally 240 diabetic patients admitted at the Department of Endocrinology in two ClassⅢ Grade A hospitals in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province were selected by convenient sampling and investigated with the general information questionnaire, Self-Stigma Scale (SSS) , and Self-Compassion Scale (SCS) . Hierarchical regression analysis was used to explore the relationship between self-stigma and self-compassion in diabetic patients. A total of 240 questionnaires were issued, and 225 valid questionnaires were recovered. The effective response rate was 93.75% (225/240) .Results:The total SSS score of the 225 diabetic patients was (56.47±16.72) , and the average score of all items was (2.01±0.60) ; the total SCS score was (86.46±12.79) , and the average score of all items was (3.33±0.49) . Pearson correlation analysis showed that the total SSS score of diabetic patients was negatively correlated with the total SCS score ( P < 0.01) . Hierarchical regression analysis revealed that self-compassion was an influencing factor of self-stigma in diabetic patients ( P< 0.01) , which could independently explain 13.1% of self-stigma (Δ R2=0.131, P<0.001) . Conclusions:Self-stigma of diabetic patients is at a moderate level, and self-compassion is an influencing factor of self-stigma of diabetic patients. Nursing staff can reduce patients ' self-stigma by improving their self-compassion.

Objective:To compare and analyze the image quality, signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR) of T 1WI_Star_VIBE_FS sequence in MRI simulation of neck tumors with different scanning methods, aiming to determine the optimal scanning method. Methods:A retrospective analysis of 78 patients receiving MRI contrast scan was performed. All patients were randomly divided into three groups according to three different scanning methods including bolus mode (group A, n=23), segmentation splicing mode (group B, n=18) and the combination mode (group C, n=37). The image quality, SNR and CNR of the anterior soft tissues of neck were statistically compared. Results:A higher image quality score was obtained in group C. The mean SNR and CNR in three groups were calculated as 214.70±148.78, 91.95±59.26, 307.61±127.80, and 208.74±148.27, 85.79±59.50, 301.58±127.48, respectively. The image quality score, SNR and CNR in group C were significantly better compared with those in group A and B (all P<0.01). Conclusion:Combination of bolus and segmentation splicing modes is a recommended approach in MRI simulation during radiotherapy of neck tumors.

Objective:To explore the application effect of optimizing diet management in patients with hyperphosphatemia.Methods:Seventy-seven patients who underwent regular hemodialysis in the blood purification department of the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangxi Medical University from September 2018 to June 2019 were selected. Patients were randomly divided into control group (39 cases) and intervention group (38 cases) by the method of random number table. The control group received routine nursing, while the intervention group received optimized dietary management intervention. The blood phosphorus, blood calcium, hemoglobin, albumin, dietary phosphorus related knowledge level and phosphorus control diet compliance of the two groups before and after the intervention were compared respectively.Results:After 3 months of intervention, the scores of knowledge about food phosphorus, compliance of phosphorus control diet and total score of the intervention group were (22.00±3.92), (34.82±4.69) and (56.82±7.48) points, which were higher than (18.46±3.57), (30.54±3.52) and (49.00±6.13) points of the control group, the difference was statistically significant ( tvalues were 4.146, 4.536 and 5.022, P<0.05). After 6 months of intervention, the scores of knowledge about food phosphorus, compliance of phosphorus control diet and total score of the intervention group were (25.74±3.36), (41.63±5.27) and (67.37±7.67) points, which were higher than (20.97±3.81), (32.36±4.38) and (53.33±6.80) points of the control group, the difference was statistically significant ( tvalues were 5.815, 8.403 and 8.504, P<0.05). After 3 months of intervention, the blood phosphorus level in the intervention group was 1.81 (1.67, 2.10) mmol/L, which was lower than 2.13 (1.87, 2.32) mmol/L in the control group, the difference was statistically significant ( Zvalue was-3.237, P<0.05). After 6 months of intervention, the blood phosphorus level in the intervention group was 1.75 (1.63, 1.91) mmol/L, which was lower than that in the control group 1.90 (1.83, 2.13) mmol/L, and the difference was statistically significant ( Zvalue was-3.343, P<0.01). Conclusion:Optimizing dietary management can improve patients' knowledge level of food phosphorus and dietary compliance of phosphorus control, effectively reduce blood phosphorus level, and have no obvious effect on nutritional status.
