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.

Catalpol,the primary active component of Rehmannia glutinosa,exhibits potent antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects and regulatory effects on glucose and lipid metabolism.This article systematically reviews recent studies on the impact of catalpol in addressing glycolipid metabolic disorders and related diseases and the underlying mechainsms.Catalpol can correct glucose and lipid metabolism imbalances to prevent the development and progression of diabetes complications including macrovascular and microvascu-lar diseases,through modulating the adenosine 5'-monophosphate-activated protein kinase signaling pathway to regulate lipogenesis and fat oxidation and altering the phosphorylation of forkhead transcription factor 1 and glycogen synthase kinase 3 to influence glyco-gen synthesis and breakdown.Catalpol plays a protective role in the cardio-cerebrovascular system,renal function,and retinal struc-ture and function through mediating signaling pathways such as phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/protein kinase B and oxidized low-density lipoprotein/lectin-like oxidized low-density lipoprotein receptor-1.By suppressing the nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells pathway and endoplasmic reticulum stress,catalpol can alleviate inflammatory responses,thereby mitigat-ing inflammation-induced insulin resistance and glycolipid metabolic disorders.

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.
