OBJECTIVE To investigate the mechanism of isochlorogenic acid A against hepatocellular carcinoma based on the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/protein kinase B/mammalian target of rapamycin （PI3K/Akt/mTOR） signaling pathway and multi-omics technology. METHODS The invasion rate and migration rate of human hepatocellular carcinoma HepG2 cells after 48 h of intervention with 0 （control group）， 0.25 and 0.5 mg/mL isochlorogenic acid A were examined； mRNA expression of DEP domain-containing mTOR-interacting protein （DEPTOR）， the protein expressions of mTOR， PI3K and phosphatase and tensin homologue deleted on chromosome ten （PTEN）， as well as the phosphorylation level of Akt protein were determined in the cells. Metabolomics analysis was performed using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry， and differential metabolites were screened and subjected to Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes （KEGG） pathway enrichment analysis； transcriptomics monitoring was conducted by RNA sequencing， and differentially expressed genes were screened and subjected to gene ontology （GO） and KEGG pathway enrichment analyses. RESULTS Compared with the control group， intervention with 0.25 and 0.5 mg/mL isochlorogenic acid A for 48 h significantly inhibited the invasion rate and migration rate of HepG2 cells， significantly up-regulated the mRNA expression of DEPTOR and the protein expression of PTEN， and significantly down-regulated the protein expression of PI3K and the phosphorylation level of Akt protein （except for 0.25 mg/mL isochlorogenic acid A） （ P ＜0.05）. A total of 304 differential metabolites and 212 differentially expressed genes were screened by multi-omics analysis. KEGG pathway enrichment analysis suggested that isochlorogenic acid A regulated key signaling of HepG2 cell growth mainly by inhibiting the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway， synergizing with metabolic reprogramming such as mTOR signaling pathway， ferroptosis， pentose phosphate pathway and purine/pyrimidine metabo lism. CONCLUSIONS The anti-hepatocellular carcinoma effect of isochlorogenic acid A is associated with the blockade of abnormal activation of the PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway. In addition， it may also be related to the inhibition of the pentose phosphate pathway and purine/pyrimidine metabolism， as well as the induction of ferroptosis，etc.

Objective:To introduce the research and innovations around the application of aquatic rehabilitation techniques in the treatment of lumbago, and to summarize specific methods and applications in aeromedicine. Literature resource and selection Literature on the prevention and treatment of lumbago using aquatic rehabilitation techniques as well as on the rehabilitation of lumbago in pilots was retrieved and selected. Literature quotation Sixty-one references were cited. Literature synthesis Aquatic rehabilitation techniques can be classified into shower therapy, immersion therapy, and aquatic exercise therapy according to treatment regimens. Among them, immersion therapy and aquatic exercise therapy are commonly used in the treatment of lumbago. Aquatic rehabilitation techniques can effectively alleviate patients′ lumbago, improve their functional disorders, and enhance their quality of life. Prior to aquatic therapy, patients with lumbago need to have their motor function assessed to tailor the treatment protocol based on diagnostic findings and specific therapeutic objectives. Aquatic rehabilitation techniques, when used to prevent and treat lumbago in pilots under convalescence, are not only more effective than land-based training, but also more accessible to pilots due to their comfort and compliance. Many of our military rehabilitation and convalescent centers in China have integrated modern aquatic rehabilitation techniques into rehabilitation treatment by drawing on their rich water resources so as to improve the physical and mental health, social adaptability and military adaptability of pilots. Conclusions:When used for the prevention and treatment of lumbago, aquatic rehabilitation techniques are highly effective, safe and enjoyable, so they should be made more accessible to pilots during convalescence.

Background During urbanization, the passenger load on urban public transport systems continues to increase, exposing bus drivers to a high risk of musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs). This occupational health issue may also potentially compromise public transport safety. Objective To investigate the prevalence of MSDs among bus drivers in a first-tier city and to explore associated influencing factors. Methods A self-administered questionnaire survey was conducted from December 2024 to March 2025 among 1300 bus drivers in a bus company. Data were collected on general demographic information, occupational activities, and MSDs indicators. A total of 1268 valid questionnaires were returned, yielding a response rate of 97.5%. Descriptive statistics were used to analyze the distribution characteristics of MSDs. Pearson χ² tests were employed to examine the association between MSDs prevalence and individual/occupational characteristics. Logistic regression was performed to identify the influencing factors of MSDs. Results The survey revealed that the prevalence of MSDs among the bus drivers was 28.5%, with the highest prevalence in the 41–50 years age group (30.5%). The conditions primarily affected the cervical spine (60.5%) and lumbar spine (61.9%), with some cases involving multiple sites. The logistic regression model indicated that the following factors were associated with a higher risk of MSDs: frequent smoking (OR=1.477), poor or moderate self-reported health status (OR=4.422), 11–20 years of service (OR=1.749), daily cumulative driving time ≥361 min (OR=1.616), frequent whole-body fatigue during driving (OR=2.077), occasional whole-body fatigue during driving (OR=1.873), feeling tense during driving (OR=1.518), fatigue after work (OR=2.485), work-related stress (OR=1.882), and prolonged smartphone use with head-down posture (OR=1.671). Conversely, occasional exercise (OR=0.713)/frequent exercise (OR=0.569), driving intervals ≥21 min per round (OR=0.645), and perceiving the driving seat comfortable (OR=0.429) were associated with a lower risk of MSDs. Conclusion Physical exercise, smoking, years of service, daily cumulative driving time, driving intervals per round, prolonged smartphone use with head-down posture, self-reported health status, and psychological factors such as work-related stress are influencing factors for MSDs among bus drivers. Drivers should increase physical exercise and change unhealthy living habits. Employers should optimize working conditions, arrange reasonable driving schedules, and foster a positive work environment to reduce MSDs prevalence.

Objective:To construct the user personas of the patients who practice self-management home rehabilitation after lower limb bone transport by exploring their self-management experiences and needs in rehabilitation at home so as to provide targeted countermeasures for related medical staff.Methods:A purposive sampling method was employed to select the 21 patients who had undergone home rehabilitation after lower limb bone transport at Department of Orthopedic Trauma, Nanfang Hospital from September to December 2024. The cohort included 12 males and 9 females, with an age of (39.8±15.1) years. The phenomenological research method was used to conduct semi-structured interviews with this cohort. After the data from interviews were explored by the Colaizzi 7-step analysis to extract the factual labels, role dimension models were built, covering 3 dimensions: description, characteristics (basic, cognitive, behavioral, social support, and psychological adjustment characteristics) and needs.Results:All patients were interviewed. Four user personas were constructed, including self-awareness growth type (5 cases), emotional dependency-driven type (4 cases), risk-aversion procrastination type (7 cases), and management motivation-impaired type (5 cases). The patients of self-awareness growth type were 21 to 36 years old and received high school or university education, characterized by high self-efficacy, active measures to improve and maintain their state of rehabilitation, good management of negative emotions, and a low sense of stigma. The patients of emotional low-driven type were 42 to 74 years old and received their education in a primary school or junior high school, characterized by lack of independence, dependence on others for rehabilitation management, common management of negative emotions, low self-efficacy, and a strong sense of stigma. The patients of risk-aversion procrastination type were 33 to 56 years old and received their education in a junior or senior high school, characterized by a willingness to cooperate but insufficient motivation for rehabilitation management, an awareness of rehabilitation which was vulnerable to external factors, common management of negative emotions, low self-efficacy, and a strong sense of stigma. The patients of management motivation-impaired type were 51 to 61 years old, received primary school education or lower, characterized by insufficient knowledge and poor self-management behavior, constant failure to follow the prescribed rehabilitation exercises, poor management of negative emotions, low self-efficacy, and a low sense of stigma.Conclusion:The user personas we have constructed for the patients who practice self-management home rehabilitation after lower limb bone transport can help healthcare professionals with specific targeted interventions to enhance self-management efficacy to facilitate the rehabilitation process for the patients.

Objective:Multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed to analyze the risk factors for intensive care unit-acquired weakness (ICU-AW) in critically ill patients.Methods:A total of 220 critically ill patients who were admitted to Intensive Care Unit, The First Hospital of Jiaxing from January 2020 to January 2022 were included in this study. The incidence of ICU-AW was recorded. Univariate analysis was conducted to investigate the factors related to ICU-AW, while multiple logistic regression analysis was performed to identify independent risk factors for ICU-AW in critically ill patients.Results:Among the 220 critically ill patients, 64 developed ICU-AW, resulting in an incidence of 29.1% (64/220). There were no significant differences in sex, age, history of alcoholism, history of smoking, marital status, hypertension, diabetes, or use of glucocorticoid (methylprednisolone sodium succinate for injection) between the ICU-AW group and the non-ICU-AW group (all P > 0.05). The proportion of patients with sepsis in the ICU-AW group was higher than that in the non-ICU-AW group [46.9% (30/64) vs. 15.4% (24/156)]. The proportion of patients who were immobilized in the ICU-AW group was higher than that in the non-ICU-AW group [89.1% (37/64) vs. 64.1% (100/156)]. The use of nerve blocker (vecuronium bromide for injection) was more prevalent in the ICU-AW group than that in the non-ICU-AW group [57.8% (37/64) vs. 23.1% (36/156)]. The Acute Physiology And Chronic Health Evaluation Ⅱ score in the ICU-AW group was higher than that in the non-ICU-AW group [16 (11, 23) vs. 12 (8, 17)]. The duration of mechanical ventilation in the ICU-AW group was longer than that in the non-ICU-AW group [8 (4, 13) days vs. 4 (3, 6) days]. The length of hospital stay in the ICU-AW group was longer than that in the non-ICU-AW group [10 (7, 17) days vs. 7 (5, 11) days]. The blood lactate level in the ICU-AW group was higher than that in the non-ICU-AW group [2 (1, 2) mmol/L vs. 1 (1, 2) mmol/L]. All differences were statistically significant ( χ2 = 24.30, 13.83, 24.70, Z = 3.83, 4.59, 3.97, 2.70, all P < 0.05). The results of the univariate analysis, when included in the multivariate logistic regression analysis, showed that sepsis, immobilization, duration of mechanical ventilation, blood lactate level, and Acute Physiology And Chronic Health Evaluation Ⅱ score were independent risk factors for ICU-AW (all P < 0.05). Conclusions:The incidence of ICU-AW is high and the risk factors for ICU-AW are complex. Therefore, targeted control of high-risk factors should be actively performed to prevent and treat ICU-AW.

Objective:To implement cross-cultural adaptation after translating the Integral Nursing Leadership Scale(INLS), and to test the validity of the Chinese version of INLS.Methods:In April 2024, the translation method adopted was direct translation and back translation, cross-cultural adaptation was carried out using the expert consultation method, a pre-survey was conducted and the Chinese version of INLS was modified accordingly. From May to June 2024, a convenience sampling method was used to select the participants from Southern Medical University Southern Hospital to test the reliability and validity of the Chinese version of INLS.Results:The effective recovery rate was 95.30% (669/702).

Objective To explore the short-term prognosis and risk factors for in-hospital mortality in patients with fulminant myocarditis induced refractory cardiogenic shock(FM-RCS)receiving veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation(VA-ECMO)treatment,and to construct an early prognosis prediction model using relevant indicators.Methods A total of 61 FM-RCS patients treatment by VA-ECMO in the department of intensive care unit of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from January 2017 to February 2024,excluding 15 cases with age less than 18 years and 3 cases with ECMO treatment duration less than 24 hours,a total of 43 patients were finally included.Participants were stratified into survival(n=19)and mortality(n=24)groups according to discharge outcomes.Demographic data,chronic disease history,early laboratory indicators,left ventricular function indicators,and basic reference values of hemodynamics were systematically compared between the two groups.Variable selection was performed using LASSO regression,followed by multivariate COX regression analysis to screen independent risk factors for in-hospital mortality in ECMO-treatment FM-RCS patients.A nomogram prediction model was subsequently developed using R software and validated through calibration curves,concordance index(C-index),and receiver operator characteristic curve(ROC curve)analysis.Results The overall survival rate of the 43 enrolled patients was 44.2%,with 19 cases in the survival group and 24 cases in the mortality group.In early laboratory indicators,the survival group exhibited significantly lower levels of initial lactic acid(Lac),24-hour Lac(Lac 24 h),24-hour MB isoenzyme of creatine kinase(CK-MB 24 h),24-hour cardiac troponin T(cTnT 24 h),24-hour total bilirubin(TBil 24 h),24-hour serum creatinine(SCr 24 h),and lactate albumin ratio(LAR)compared to the mortality group[initial Lac(mmol/L):2.7(1.3,7.6)vs.9.2(5.9,14.0),Lac 24 h(mmol/L):2.4(2.0,3.6)vs.5.4(3.3,9.2),CK-MB 24 h(U/L):58.0(28.0,115.0)vs.167.7(68.5,280.3),cTnT 24 h(μg/L):0.53(0.37,2.41)vs.3.92(3.10,8.86),TBil 24h(μmol/L):18.3(9.9,37.8)vs.40.2(24.6,67.0),SCr 24 h(μmol/L):90.63±42.49 vs.177.76±70.76,LAR:0.09(0.04,0.23)vs.0.31(0.20,0.38),all P<0.05],serum albumin(Alb)levels were significantly higher in the survival group[g/L:36.0(31.9,39.2)vs.31.7(26.4,34.4),P<0.05].The mortality group had a higher incidence of malignant arrhythmias[66.7%(16/24)vs.31.6%(6/19),P<0.05].The LASSO regression model identified four non-zero coefficient variables-Lac 24 h,CK-MB 24 h,cTnT 24 h,and SCr 24 h-which were included in the subsequent multivariate COX regression analysis.The results demonstrated that Lac 24 h[hazard ratio(HR)and 95%confidence interval(95%CI)was 1.186(1.074-1.310),P<0.001]and cTnT 24 h(HR=1.230,95%CIwas 1.078-1.404,P=0.002)were independent risk factors for in-hospital mortality in VA-ECMO treatment FM-RCS patients.A predictive model constructed using these two indicators showed a C-index of 0.812,area under the curve(AUC)=0.941,with 91.7%sensitivity and 94.7%specificity.Furthermore,compared to the survival group,the mortality group exhibited significantly higher incidences of acute kidney injury[91.7%(22/24)vs.36.8%(7/19)]and hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy[62.5%(15/24)vs.10.5%(2/19),both P<0.05].The mortality group also required greater transfusion volumes[mL:3 800(1 420,8 515)vs.1 200(400,3 020),P<0.05],but had shorter total hospitalization durations[days:7(3,13)vs.23(20,44),P<0.05].Conclusion For FM-RCS patients receiving VA-ECMO treatment,Lac 24 h and cTnT 24 h after ECMO initiation are independent predictors of in-hospital mortality.Clinicians should be vigilant about poor prognosis in FM-RCS patients with high Lac 24 h hours(>2.5 mmol/L)and cTnT 24 hours(>3.01 μg/L)after ECMO treatment.

Objective:To explore the chain mediating role of psychological resilience and perceived social support between cancer-related fatigue and quality of life in patients undergoing chemotherapy for lung cancer, and to inform interventions to improve quality of life in patients undergoing chemotherapy for lung cancer.Methods:Convenience sampling was used to select 275 lung cancer patients with chemotherapy admitted to three ClassⅢ Grade A hospitals in Henan Province from June 2022 to November 2023 for the study. General Information Questionnaire, Cancer Fatigue Scale, Quality of Life Instruments for Cancer Patients-Lung (QLICP-LU), Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale, and Perceived Social Support Scale were used to survey the patients. Correlations between cancer-related fatigue, psychological resilience, perceived social support, and quality of life in lung cancer patients with chemotherapy were analyzed using Spearman correlation. Model 6 in the SPSS PROCESS program was used to test for chain mediating effects. A total of 275 questionnaires were distributed, 268 questionnaires were recovered, excluding the regular answer questionnaires, the valid questionnaires were 252, the effective recovery rate of questionnaires was 91.64% (252/275) .Results:Univariate analysis showed statistically significant differences in QLICP-LU scores among lung cancer patients with chemotherapy of different ages, educational levels, marital status, per capita monthly household income, and tumor stages ( P<0.01). Spearman correlation analysis showed that cancer-related fatigue was negatively correlated with psychological resilience, perceived social support and quality of life in patients undergoing chemotherapy for lung cancer ( P<0.01), and quality of life was positively correlated with psychological resilience and perceived social support ( P<0.01), and psychological resilience was positively correlated with perceived social support ( P<0.01). Mediating effect analysis showed that the direct effect of cancer-related fatigue on quality of life was -0.302, which accounted for 77.44% of the total effect. Psychological resilience and perceived social support realized mediating effects between cancer-related fatigue and quality of life through three mediating pathways, with a total indirect effect of -0.088, accounting for 22.56% of the total effect. Conclusions:Cancer-related fatigue can not only directly affect the quality of life of patients undergoing chemotherapy for lung cancer, but it can also have an indirect effect on them through the mediating role of psychological resilience and perceived social support. While focusing on patients' cancer-related fatigue, medical and nursing staff should focus on assessing patients' psychological status, providing psychological support, and increasing social support so as to improve patients' quality of life.

Critically ill with capillary leakage syndrome（CLS）presents with damaged vascular endothelial cells with glycocalyx degraded,which increases vascular permeability,and leads to the protein-rich fluid from the intravascular extravasate into the interstitial space.CLS can concomitant symptoms of hypovolemia and fluid overload.Fluid therapy is the most critical element in the treatment of CLS,but still lack of sufficient evidence to guide the choice of fluid management.Based on accurately hemodynamic monitoring,balanced salt or crystalloid + albumin or fresh frozen plasma may be input to ensure effective circulating blood volume.Albumin or fresh frozen plasma is particularly suitable for CLS patients failed to respond to crystalloids during the leakage period.In the later stage of leakage,conservative fluid management with “de-resuscitation”strategy was mainly used with diuretic and hemofiltration (renal replacement therapy/continuous renal replacement therapy) for attenuating fluid overload.Steroids and ulinastatin may be effective in CLS caused by sepsis.
