ObjectiveTo establish a tumor prognostic risk assessment model related to target genes of the miR-34 family. MethodsTarget genes of the miR-34 family were screened， and the scores of miR-34 target genes were assessed in 16 tumor types. Univariate Cox regression analysis was used to identify the tumor type with the strongest correlation between miR-34 target gene scores and overall survival （OS）. Gene Ontology （GO） and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes （KEGG） analyses were performed to elucidate the functional roles and signaling pathways of miR-34 target genes. A prognostic risk model based on the miR-34 target genes was constructed using univariate Cox and LASSO regression analyses. Quantitative real-time PCR （qPCR） and dual-luciferase reporter assays were conducted to validate whether the target genes bind to miR-34 and measure their RNA expression levels in the relevant tumors. Additionally， the risk score was integrated with other clinical indicators to develop a nomogram prediction model for patient survival. ResultsA total of 65 target genes of the miR-34 family were screened. The cancer type exhibiting stronger correlation between the target gene scores and OS was lung adenocarcinoma （P = 0.003， HR= 5.150）. Furthermore， miR-34 target genes were predominantly enriched in oxidative stress pathways and various tumor-related processes. Three genes， LDHA， GALNT7， and SATB2， were identified as core components of the prognostic analysis model for lung adenocarcinoma. Additionally， the constructed nomogram model demonstrated robust predictive performance. ConclusionThe risk model and prognosis model of lung adenocarcinoma constructed based on the key target genes of miR-34 have good predictive performance.

Objective To explore the intention of chronic disease patients to use internet hospitals and its influencing factors based on the theory of planned behavior.Methods A convenience sampling survey was conducted using a questionnaire based on theory of planned behavior from July to October 2024.Structural equation modeling was employed to analyze the determinants of behavioral intention.Results The mean behavioral intention score was(96.25±11.62),indicating a moderate-to-high level.Structural equation modeling revealed significantly positive effects of subjective norms(β=0.696,P＜0.05)and perceived behavioral control(β=0.175,P＜0.05)on behavioral intention,while significant negative effects were observed for information risk perception(β=-0.286,P＜0.05)and medical risk perception(β=-0.221,P＜0.05).Conclusion Chronic disease patients demonstrate moderate-to-high intention to use internet hospitals.Key determinants of behavioral intention include subjective norms,perceived behavioral control,information risk perception,and medical risk perception.

Objective:To analyze the epidemiological characteristics and trends of preterm births in China using medical institution survey data, thereby providing epidemiological data support for perinatal care.Methods:Based on a nationwide sampling survey on healthcare quality data from 2017 to 2022, this study included 3 547, 4 436, 4 513, 4 535, 5 068, and 5 790 medical institutions, with 7 039 107, 8 926 441, 9 006 420, 7 051 984, 7 311 862, and 7 354 062 parturient women, respectively. The overall rates of preterm birth (live births at 28 to 36 +6 weeks of gestation/overall live births) and early preterm birth (live births at 28 to <34 weeks of gestation/overall live births) were calculated at the national level, across diverse provinces, autonomous regions, municipalities and Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps, and for various levels of medical institutions. Generalized estimating equations were used to analyze the influence of maternal characteristics and medical institution characteristics on the rates of preterm birth and early preterm birth. Results:From 2017 to 2022, both the preterm birth rate and the early preterm birth rate in China showed a continuous increase. The preterm birth rate rose from 5.13% (363 036/7 079 454) in 2017 to 6.56% (487 150/7 424 734) in 2022, and the early preterm birth rate increased from 1.32% (118 021/8 971 870) in 2018 to 1.43% (106 157/7 424 734) in 2022. These rates showed an overall increasing trend in private, secondary public specialty, and general hospitals. In tertiary public specialty hospitals, these rates fluctuated around 8.0% and 2.0% from the year 2018, respectively, while in tertiary public general hospitals, these rates peaked in 2020 at 8.63% (205 570/2 381 523) and 2.19% (52 197/2 381 523), respectively. Compared with 2017, by 2022, the preterm birth rate had increased to varying degrees in all provinces, autonomous regions, municipalities and Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps, except for Henan Province [preterm birth rate in 2017 was 6.22% (27 173/437 187); preterm birth rate in 2022 was 5.83% (37 604/645 104)]. As for the early preterm birth rate, it showed a decline in Fujian, Guangdong, Guangxi, Hainan, Henan, Jiangsu, Shanghai, Xinjiang, Yunnan, and Zhejiang, but had increased to varying degrees in all other provinces , autonomous regions, municipalities and Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps across the country. The grade and location of medical institutions both had a significant impact on the preterm birth rate and early preterm birth rate (both P<0.05). For every 1% increase in the proportions of multiparous women, women of advanced maternal age, or twin pregnancies, the preterm birth rate increased by 0.014%, 0.042%, and 0.763%, and the early preterm birth rate increased by 0.004%, 0.013%, and 0.239%, respectively (all P<0.05). Conclusion:From 2017 to 2022, the preterm birth rate and early preterm birth rate in China have continued to rise, reflecting the dual challenges of changing characteristics in the childbearing population and the uneven distribution of medical and health resources faced by maternal and child healthcare in China.

Objective To investigate the status and influencing factors of the coexistence of multiple frailty domains in patients with chronic heart failure(CHF),and to provide a reference for formulating targeted intervention measures.Methods The patients with CHF hospitalized in the cardiovascular department of a tertiary general hospital in Tianjin from November 2021 to December 2022 were conveniently selected as the study subjects.The self-designed general information questionnaire,FRAIL scale,Montreal Cognitive Assessment(MoCA)scale,HALFT Scale,Social Support Rating Scale and Self-Rating Depression Scale were used to investigate the coexistence of physical,cognitive and social frailty in CHF patients,and single factor analysis and binary logistic regression analysis were used to analyze the influencing factors.Results A total of 275 questionnaires were issued and 269 valid questionnaires were collected.Among 269 patients with CHF,12(4.5％),67(24.9％),122(45.4％)and 68(25.3％)patients had 0,1,2 and 3 frailty domains,respectively.According to the patients with CHF whether coexists physical,cognitive,social frailty,divided into coexistence and non-coexistence group.In univariate analysis,there were statistically significant differences in education,residence,family history of cardiovascular disease,NYHA cardiac function grade,atrial fibrillation,BMI,social support score and depression score(P＜0.05).Binary logistic regression analysis showed that high education level(OR=0.567,95％CI 0.397～0.810,P=0.002)was the protective factor for multiple frailty domains in CHF patients,and atrial fibrillation(OR=1.904,95％CI 1.054～3.442,P=0.033)and depression(OR=1.038,95％CI 1.006～1.071,P=0.018)were risk factors.Conclusion The prevalence of the coexistence of multiple frailty domains in CHF patients is high.Education level,atrial fibrillation and depression are potential intervention targets for multiple frailty domains in CHF patients.Targeted intervention measures should be carried out to reduce the incidence of multiple frailty domains and to improve quality of life for CHF patients.

Objective:To investigate the clinical value of 18F-NaF PET/CT coronary plague imaging in evaluating the long-term prognosis of patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). Methods:A retrospective cohort study was conducted among 54 patients (37 males and 17 females, aged (57.2±9.8) years) diagnosed with CAD from a multicenter study between September 2015 and October 2022. All patients underwent 18F-NaF PET/CT and coronary angiography (CAG) within 1 week, and the PET/CT imaging was performed at the First Hospital of Shanxi Medical University. Major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) were followed up. ROC curves were established to obtain the optimal thresholds of SUV max and accumulated SUV max of all lesions of main coronary artery branches (S-SUV max) for predicting MACE. Cox proportional risk model and Kaplan-Meier method (log-rank test) were used to analyze the predictive value of PET parameters for MACE. Differences in metabolic parameters between 2 groups were compared by Mann-Whitney U test. Results:The median follow-up time of the 54 patients was 6.0(1.8, 6.6) years, and 13(24.1%) patients developed MACE, including 7 deaths, 5 myocardial infarction and 1 severe arrhythmia. S-SUV max in MACE group was significantly higher than that in the non-MACE group (2.64(2.08, 4.49) vs 1.83(0.95, 2.90); Z=-2.04, P=0.041). ROC curve showed that the optimal threshold of S-SUV max for MACE prediction was 2.05 (AUC=0.690). Multivariate Cox analysis showed that S-SUV max was a strong predictor of MACE (hazard ratio ( HR)=2.434(95% CI: 1.547-3.828), P<0.001). ROC curve showed that the optimal threshold of SUV max to predict MACE was 0.55 (AUC=0.659), and univariate Cox analysis showed that SUV max was a factor to predict MACE ( HR=10.192 (95% CI: 2.667-38.953), P=0.001). In 25 patients with incomplete revascularization (ICR), Kaplan-Meier analysis showed that the incidence of MACE in patients with positive 18F-NaF uptake (single medium stenosis (40%-70%) with SUV max≥0.55) was significantly higher than that in patients with negative 18F-NaF uptake (5/14 vs 0/11; χ2=6.07, P=0.014). Conclusions:18F-NaF PET/CT can be used as an independent predictor of MACE in patients with CAD and can quantitatively assess the long-term progression of moderate coronary artery stenosis. In the future, it is expected to be a new non-invasive way to guide the revascularization treatment decision of multi-vessel CAD.

Objective:To explore the application effect of interventional teaching in undergraduate nursing internship in operating rooms.Methods:A total of 98 undergraduate nursing students who worked as interns in the operating room during the two school years from June 2022 to February 2024 were selected as research subjects. Students who entered the program from June 2022 to February 2023 were enrolled into control group (50 students), and those who entered from June 2023 to February 2024 were enrolled into experimental group (48 students). The students conducted their internships in batches (with 4 to 5 students per subgroup) following a departmental rotation mechanism. The control group received routine teaching, while the experimental group received interventional teaching. At the end of the internship, the two groups were compared for their performance, including basic and specialized knowledge, skills, theory, and operation; patient reception, tripartite verification, and intraoperative cooperation for planned video-assisted thoracoscopic bullectomy; and their degrees of satisfaction with the teaching. The t-test was performed using SPSS 26.0. Results:The experimental group achieved significantly higher theoretical scores than the control group [(91.69±4.51) vs. (74.52±6.06)]. Meanwhile, the experimental group was significantly superior to the control group in operational performance, including surgical hand disinfection [(96.08±1.93) vs. (92.14±3.07)] and wearing and removing sterile surgical gowns and sterile gloves [(97.00±1.75) vs. (94.10±3.48)). In terms of specialized knowledge and skills, specifically, patient reception and third-party verification in simulated surgical nursing, the experimental group achieved higher scores than the control group [(98.77±0.69) vs. (94.04±2.56); (98.54±0.65) vs. (94.64±2.65)]. In terms of intraoperative cooperation, the experimental group showed a slight advantage over the control group. The experimental group had higher degrees of satisfaction with teaching than the control group, including course design, implementation methods, course arrangement, teaching attitude, teaching methods, degree of participation, gains, and assistance.Conclusions:After adopting interventional teaching, the teaching effect for nursing internship in operating rooms is better. It improves the various assessment scores of nursing students, enhances their comprehensive abilities and degrees of satisfaction with teaching, and reinforces the teaching abilities in operating rooms.
