ObjectiveTo introduce visual teaching into the course design of medical humanistic care based on the concept of implementation science， evaluate the teaching implementation effect and feedback， and provide references for optimizing course teaching outcomes and improving students’ humanistic care competence. MethodsA visual teaching program for medical humanistic care was designed， with key steps including clarifying teaching objectives， content， methods， and curriculum assessment. This program was implemented in the medical humanistic care course teaching involving 50 elective students. Multi-dimensional evaluation of teaching effectiveness was conducted through course grades， visual teaching evaluation， and humanistic workshop assessment， combined with inductive content analysis of students’ learning experiences in the workshops. ResultsThe 50 students achieved above-average course grades （89.60±3.41） and demonstrated high satisfaction with the overall course and visual teaching. All the 6 groups obtained relatively high scores in the medical humanistic care workshops. Four themes were extracted， namely， enhancing humanistic care competencies， deepening familial and interpersonal relationships， realizing emotional expression and self-growth， and strengthening integration of humanistic care concepts with practice. ConclusionThe teaching of medical humanistic care course has achieved favorable effects， which contributes to deepening students’ understanding of humanistic care and enhancing their humanistic care competence. Students demonstrate high levels of recognition and satisfaction with the course.

ObjectiveTo explore the driving forces for oncology nurses’ participation in palliative care work， thereby providing a theoretical basis for the improvement of education and training， incentive mechanisms， and other aspects of the palliative care nursing staff. MethodsEmploying a qualitative research method， semi-structured interviews lasting 40-60 minutes were conducted with 14 nurses who had participated in palliative care work. The interview data were analyzed using the Colaizzi seven-step analysis method. ResultsInternal positive driving forces were job interest， empathy， and a sense of professional responsibility， while the negative was low psychological resilience. External positive driving forces included high work support， professional identity， mutual benefits for nurses and patients， and positive patient attitudes， whereas negative driving forces comprised busy routine clinical work， lack of a reward and incentive system， and bland or negative patient attitudes. ConclusionIt is essential to provide a flexible platform for the enhancement of nurses’ professional capabilities in palliative care， intensify the publicity of palliative care and death education； intervene and guide nurses’ negative emotions， improve and implement relevant incentive systems， and standardize the job recognition and scope of responsibilities of palliative care nurses.

ObjectiveTo explore the impact of comprehensive vocational rehabilitation on quality of life and return-to-work outcomes for individuals with mild work-related disability. MethodsA longitudinal observational study was conducted. A total of 343 work-injured employees receiving comprehensive vocational rehabilitation intervention in Guangdong Work Injury Rehabilitation Hospital from June, 2023 to December, 2024 were selected. The 36-item Short Form Health Survey (SF-36) was adopted to assess their health-related quality of life at admission and discharge. All subjects were followed up within one year after discharge to collect their return-to-work status. The differences in each dimension score of SF-36 among patients with different return-to-work outcomes (return to original post, transfer to new post and non-return to work) were compared, and the independent influencing factors of return-to-work outcomes were identified. ResultsComprehensive vocational rehabilitation intervention significantly improved the scores of physical functioning (PF), role-physical (RP) and role-emotional (RE) among work-injured employees (P < 0.05). At discharge, compared with patients who failed to return to work, patients returning to original post obtained significantly higher scores in PF, RP, bodily pain (BP), general health (GH), vitality (VT), social functioning (SF) and mental health (MH), patients transferred to new post achieved significantly higher scores in PF, BP, GH and SF (P < 0.05). Taking non-return-to-work status as the reference category, the multinomial logistic regression model showed the adverse factors for return to original post included low educational attainment (college diploma or below), on-site placement service, increased lost workdays and low employment intention (pre-contemplation and contemplation stages); the protective factor was positive evaluation of health transition (HT); for patients transferred to new posts, adverse factors were low employment intention (pre-contemplation stage) and increased lost workdays, while protective factors covered on-site placement service and positive HT evaluation. ConclusionComprehensive vocational rehabilitation can improve the quality of life for injured workers. Better quality of life is positively associated with return-to-work outcomes. HT, education level, job placement mode, lost workdays and employment willingness are independent factors impacting return-to-work outcomes.

Objective To develop the Children's Screen Interaction Quality Questionnaire(CSIQ)suit-able for measuring Chinese children aged 0 to 4 years,and to test its reliability and validity.Methods The purposive sampling method was used,and the guardians of 30 normal children aged 0 to 4 years undergoing physical examinations in the Department of Child Health Care of Guiyang Maternal and Child Health Care Hospital from February to April 2023 were selected as the interview objects.25 initial items were constructed through literature review,semi-structured interviews,and the Delphi expert consultation method.With the convenience sampling method,2 242 guardians of children aged 0 to 4 years old in the small and middle classes of 9 kindergartens in Guiyang City,Zunyi City,and Renhuai City were surveyed for item analysis,exploratory factor analysis,confirmatory factor analysis,and reliability and validity analysis.Results Exploratory factor a-nalysis extracted three factors,namely screen content interaction,reality interaction,and media interaction,with a total of 12 items.The cumulative variance explained rate of the 3-factor model was 69.829％.Confirma-tory factor analysis supported the three-factor model of CSIQ:x2/df=4.424,root mean square error of ap-proximation(RMSEA)=0.066,normed fit index(NFI)=0.955,comparative fit index(CFI)=0.965,incre-mental fit index(IFI)=0.965,Tucker-Lewis index(TLI)=0.955,goodness-of-fit index(GFI)=0.955,and the CSIQ had good convergent validity and discriminant validity.Conclusion The CSIQ has good reliability and validity.

Objective:To establish a risk prediction model based on least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression for procalcitonin (PCT), milk fat globule-epidermal growth factor 8 (MFG-E8) and CXC chemokine ligand 9 (CXCL9) in elderly patients with liver cancer after transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) .Methods:A total of 150 elderly patients with liver cancer who underwent TACE treatment in Shishi City Hospital, Fujian Province and 910th Hospital of the Chinese People's Liberation Army Joint Logistic Support Force from August 2020 to August 2023 were selected as the study subjects. Patients with infection after TACE were included in the infected group and those without infection were included in the non-infected group according to whether the patients had infection during the postoperative hospitalization. The baseline data of patients were collected and compared. LASSO regression was used to screen the factors that may affect the infection after TACE in elderly patients with liver cancer and binary logistic regression analysis was performed. According to the results of regression analysis, a nomogram model was constructed based on the regression analysis results and the nomogram was internally validated using Bootstrap and receiver operator characteristic (ROC) curves.Results:There were 18 cases of infection in 150 elderly patients with liver cancer after TACE, with an incidence of 12.00%. There were statistically significant differences in focal rupture and bleeding ( χ2=5.92, P=0.015), ascites ( χ2=6.70, P=0.010), skin or mucosal damage ( χ2=6.67, P=0.010) between the infected group ( n=18) and the non-infected group ( n=132). The levels of serum PCT [ (1.17±0.32 ) μg/L vs. (0.91±0.14) μg/L], MFG-E8 [ (194.29±45.85) pg/ml vs. (158.76±28.63) pg/ml] and CXCL9 [ (948.49±52.38) pg/ml vs. (886.05±50.07) pg/ml] were higher than those in the non-infected group, with statistically significant differences ( t=4.13, P<0.001; t=4.55, P<0.001; t=4.94, P<0.001). Four factors related to infection after TACE intervention in patients with liver cancer were finally selected by LASSO regression model, skin or mucosal damage, PCT, MFG-E8, CXCL9 levels. Binary logistic regression analysis showed that skin or mucosal damage ( OR=13.48, 95% CI: 1.29-140.47, P=0.030), high levels of serum PCT ( OR=1.13, 95% CI: 1.05-1.22, P=0.001), MFG-E8 ( OR=1.04, 95% CI: 1.01-1.07, P=0.003), CXCL9 ( OR=1.05, 95% CI: 1.02-1.08, P=0.001) were risk factors for infection after TACE in elderly patients with liver cancer. Based on skin or mucosa damage, PCT, MFG-E8 and CXCL9, a nomogram prediction model for postoperative infection in elderly patients with liver cancer after TACE intervention was established. Calibration curve showed that the C-index of postoperative infection predicted by the nomogram model in elderly patients with liver cancer after TACE intervention was 0.939, indicating the model had good discrimination. ROC curve analysis showed that the area under the curve (AUC) predicted by the nomogram model for infection after TACE intervention in elderly patients with liver cancer was 0.960 (95% CI: 0.926-0.995, P<0.001), which had certain predictive value. The specificity, sensitivity and Youden index were 0.864, 0.944 and 0.808, respectively. Conclusions:Skin or mucosal damage, high levels of serum PCT, CXCL9 and MFG-E8 are closely related to postoperative infection in elderly patients with liver cancer after TACE, and the prediction model constructed based on this has better predictive performance for postoperative infection.

Elderly end-of-life patients often experience distress due to being caught in dilemmas of contemplation and decision-making. Narrative wills， grounded in life values and premised on respecting individual wishes and needs， present an individual’s unique life story through narrative forms， conveying their overall experience， interpretation of meaning， and understanding of life. They are preserved and passed on in a way that meets individual expectations， thereby promoting human exploration， reflection， and growth regarding the meaning of life through interpersonal interactions that transcend space and time. This paper explored the concept of narrative wills among elderly end-of-life patients， the ethical value and ethical principles of narrative wills， and the moral and ethical risks. It also provided specific ethical interpretations， assisting in the application and development of narrative wills in elderly end-of-life patients.

Endometriosis （EMT） is a common disease with frequent occurrence and difficult to be cured in modern clinical practice of obstetrics and gynaecology. It is characterized by progressively worsening dysmenorrhoea， pelvic mass， and infertility. The incidence of EMT is growing and increasingly younger patients are diagnosed with this disease， which poses a serious threat to the reproductive and psychological health of women of childbearing age and adolescent females. However， the pathogenesis of EMT is still not completely clear， and the disease has a long course. Therefore， developing new therapies is an urgent clinical problem to be solved. Great progress has been achieved in the treatment of EMT with traditional Chinese medicine （TCM）， while the underlying mechanism remains in exploration. Programmed cell death （PCD） is a cell death mode mediated by a variety of bio-molecules with specific signaling cascades. The known PCD processes include apoptosis， pyroptosis， autophagy， ferroptosis， and cuproptosis， which all play a pivotal role in the development of EMT. Researchers have made achievements in the treatment of EMT with TCM， which regulates PCD via multiple pathways， routes， targets， and mechanisms. However， the progress in the regulation of PCD in the treatment of EMT with TCM remains to be reviewed. This paper reviews the research progress in the treatment of EMT with TCM from five PCD processes （apoptosis， pyroptosis， autophagy， ferroptosis， and cuproptosis）， with the aim of providing a theoretical basis for the clinical prevention and treatment of EMT.

Objective:To explore the spatial correlation between gray matter volume (GMV) changes and neurotransmitter receptors/transporters in patients with first-episode schizophrenia (FES) .Methods:Fifty-four FES patients(FES group) and fifty-nine healthy controls (HC group) were selected from June 2014 to May 2020 in the Psychiatry Department of Renmin Hospital of Wuhan University. Structural magnetic resonance imaging (sMRI) was conducted on all subjects. Differences of GMV were compared across 400 cortical regions and 32 subcortical regions. Based on the positron emission tomography(PET) data from Neuromaps, which provides the density of 19 different neurotransmitter receptors and transporters, Spearman correlation analysis was performed to evaluate the spatial correlation between GMV changes and neurotransmitter systems.Results:Compared to the HC group, FES group exhibited significant GMV reductions in widespread cortical (90/400) and subcortical (6/32) regions (all FDR-corrected P<0.05). The effect size of GMV reduction (Cohen’s d) showed significant positive correlations with the density of 5-hydroxytryptamine 1a(5HT1a) ( r=0.400, Pspin=0.002), γ-aminobutyric acid type A receptor(GABA A)( r=0.307, Pspin=0.002), and metabotropic glutamate receptor 5(mGluR5) ( r=0.275, Pspin=0.020) receptors (all FDR-corrected P<0.05). Conclusion:GMV reductions in a wide range of brain regions existed in patients with FES. There are significant correlations between 5HT1a, GABA A and mGluR5 receptors and gray matter reduction in patients with FES. The disorder of these neurotransmitter receptors may be the potential neurobiological mechanism of gray matter structural abnormalities in the early stage of schizophrenia.
