Objective To explore whether the biopsy rate and the positive rate of biopsy during colonoscopy can serve as effective indicators for evaluating the diagnostic proficiency of endoscopists.Methods Total fifteen endoscopists from the First Affiliated Hospital of Army Military Medical University,Guiqian International General Hospital and No.958 Hospital of PLA Army were enrolled and served as the study subjects.According to their years of experience,gender and working hours,they were divided into a senior group(n=8)and a junior group(n=7),a male group(n=9)and a female group(n=6),and a morning period(08:00-12:00)and an afternoon period(13:00-18:00).The data of all patients examined by the aforementioned endoscopists between January 2023 and December 2023 were collected,including the basic demographics,colonoscopic results,biopsy outcomes and pathological diagnoses of the patients.ANOVA was used to analyze the differences in the biopsy rate and positive rate of biopsy existed among the endoscopists of different years of experience,gender and working at different periods(morning and afternoon).Additionally,multivariate logistic regression analysis was employed to identify the independent risk factors associated with positive rates of biopsy.Results The senior group had significantly lower biopsy rate[(5.73±0.81)%vs(6.89±0.97)%],but obviously higher positive rate of biopsy[(53.52±3.87)%vs(33.70±7.85)%]than the junior group(both P<0.01).The biopsy rate was notably higher during the morning working time period than the afternoon working time period in all the endoscopits[(6.76±1.11)%vs(5.53±1.57)%,P<0.05].Logistic regression analysis showed that the years of experience[(53.52±3.87)%vs(33.70±7.85)%,OR=92.187,95%CI:3.118～2 725.366,P<0.01)and working time[(48.35±10.50)%vs(37.80±10.65)%,OR=20.885,95%CI:1.266～344.602,P<0.05)were influencing factors for positive rate of biopsy.Conclusion The biopsy rate is low and positive rate of biopsy is high among the senior experienced endoscopists,while,opposite results are seen in the junior experienced clinicians,indicating correlation of biopsy rate and positive rate of biopsy with diagnostic proficiency of endoscopists.

Mid-to-late stage ankle arthritis is a chronic degenerative disease that is extremely common in clinical practice.It is characterized by significant cartilage degeneration and subchondral bone sclerosis,accompanied by the formation of osteophytes around the joint,often leading to joint deformity.This condition causes severe pain in the patients during walking,severely restricts their activities,and affects their qualities of life.In recent years,with the continuous improvement of medical standards,the treatment methods for mid-to-late stage ankle arthritis have shown a diversified development trend.Non-surgical treatments primarily include activity restriction,orthotic devices,oral non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs(NSAIDs),and intra-articular injections of the talocrural joint.The surgical treatments primarily include joint distraction arthroplasty,periacetabular osteotomy,total ankle arthroplasty,and ankle arthrodesis.Tissue engineering therapy,as an emerging method,has also received considerable attention.This article systematically reviewed the selection principles and research progress of various treatment options for mid-to-late stage ankle arthritis,including traditional treatments,non-surgical treatments,surgical treatments,and tissue engineering treatments.By deeply analyzing the basic principles and advantages and disadvantages of each treatment method,and combining the latest research findings on clinical outcomes,a scientific and comprehensive clinical decision-making reference system was constructed to provide clearer and more comprehensive treatment choices for both doctors and patients,thereby effectively improving treatment outcomes and enhancing the quality of life for the patients.

Objective:To explore the possibility of using a inferior gluteal artery perforator flap (IGAPF) for breast reconstruction in the patient who did not have suitable donor site in back and abdomen.Methods:In November 2024, a 25-year-old unmarried and childless woman with right breast cancer received immediate right breast reconstruction by a right free IGAPF after modified right mastectomy in the Department of Breast and Thyroid Surgery, Second Affiliated Hospital of Hainan Medical University. The locations of perforators were confirmed by both Multi-detector computed tomography angiography (MDCTA) and portable Doppler blood flow detector before surgery. The IGAPF was designed to take the inferior gluteal wrinkle as the lower edge, the axis of the flap was parallel to the inferior gluteal wrinkle, and the width of the flap was estimated where the incision could be directly closed. The size of right IGAPF was 6.0 cm×19.0 cm. Sharp dissection was performed between the sarcolemma and muscle fibres of gluteus, then the perforators were dissected along the direction of muscle fibres of gluteus. The vascular pedicle was kept at about 8.0 cm in length. The diameter of artery was about 2.0 mm and that for the veins was about 1.5 mm. End-to-end anastomoses with the right thoracodorsal artery and vein were successfully carried out. The donor site was directly closed, and it was hidden in the inferior gluteal wrinkle. Postoperative outpatient clinical review was made.Results:Pathological examination reported: an invasive carcinoma of right breast, axillary lymph node metastasis (2/10). The patient recovered well and the flap survived without any complication, i.e. ischemic necrosis, infection and haematoma. The patient was off-bed at 3 days and discharged at 13 days after surgery. At the 40 days of postoperative follow-up, the patient achieved a good recovery and the lower limb activity was not affected by the surgery. The patient was satisfied with the reconstructed breast and donor site recovery. The patient followed with scheduled chemotherapy and subsequent radiotherapy. The volume of reconstructed breast was smaller than the other breast, of which the patient was fully informed before the surgery.Conclusion:A free IGAPF provides an alternative donor sites for achieving a breast reconstruction due to the reliable pedicle vessels and invisible donor scars.

Objective:To understand the current level of clinical nurses' knowledge about medical adhesive-related skin injuries (MARSI) .Methods:Using convenience sampling, 1 123 clinical nurses from the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University were selected as study subjects in March 2024. A general information questionnaire and a self-designed MARSI knowledge questionnaire were used to collect data. Multiple linear regression analysis was conducted to explore the factors influencing clinical nurses' knowledge of MARSI.Results:A total of 1 200 questionnaires were distributed and 1 123 were returned, resulting in an effective response rate of 93.58%. The average score for MARSI knowledge among the 1 123 clinical nurses was (32.75±6.78) . Multiple linear regression analysis indicated that professional title, years of work experience, and whether they have received MARSI related training were the influencing factors of MARSI cognition among clinical nurses ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:Clinical nurses' knowledge of MARSI is at a low level. Managers can develop intervention strategies based on the factors influencing MARSI knowledge to improve clinical nurses' understanding of MARSI.

Objective:To develop and evaluate the reliability and validity of a questionnaire for assessing long-term care needs among community-dwelling older adults.Methods:Guided by the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF), an initial item pool for the questionnaire was constructed based on literature review, descriptive qualitative research, and expert consultations. The draft questionnaire was formulated by transforming the established indicator system for long-term care needs into survey items. Using stratified sampling, a total of 622 older adults from community settings in Changsha were surveyed between June and August 2021. Item analysis, exploratory factor analysis (EFA), confirmatory factor analysis (CFA), and reliability testing were conducted.Results:The final questionnaire consists of three subscales (mental function, physical function, and activity and participation), comprising a total of 47 items. The item-level content validity index ( I- CVI) ranged from 0.830 to 1.000, and the scale-level content validity index ( S- CVI) was 0.915. EFA results showed that the extracted factors aligned well with the predefined dimensions after adjustment, with factor loadings exceeding 0.600 and cumulative variance contributions exceeding 70.000% for all subscales. CFA results indicated good model fit across all subscales and the overall questionnaire, confirming stable structural validity. The Cronbach's α coefficients ranged from 0.877 to 0.970, and test-retest reliability coefficients ranged from 0.901 to 0.957. Conclusions:The long-term care needs assessment questionnaire for community-dwelling older adults demonstrates strong reliability and validity, and can serve as a reliable tool for evaluating long-term care needs in this population.
