Objective:To explore the effectiveness of digital management platform led by outpatient specialist nurses among patients with type 2 diabetes in outpatient settings.Methods:From March 2024 to March 2025, adult patients with type 2 diabetes who visited the Endocrinology Clinic at Peking Union Medical College Hospital were selected using convenience sampling. Patients were randomly assigned to the control group and intervention group using the random number table method. Patients in control group received routine education on type 2 diabetes during their clinic visits after enrollment. Intervention group was managed by nurses through a digital management platform, establishing long-term connections with patients. Based on the platform, nurses regularly provided patients with knowledge updates, promptly responded to patient inquiries, reviewed daily dietary records, monitored blood glucose data, conducted weekly telephone follow-ups, and scheduled regular clinic visits to precisely intervene in patients' lifestyles. The glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) and self-management behavior scores were compared between two groups of patients before and after three months of intervention.Results:A total of 46 patients were enrolled and completed the 3-month follow-up, including 25 in control group and 21 in intervention group. There were no statistically significant differences in HbA1c or self-management behavior scores between the two groups of patients before intervention ( P>0.05). At three months of intervention, the HbA1c reduction in intervention group was greater than that in control group, with a statistically significant difference ( P<0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in Summary of Diabetes Self-Care Activities Scale scores between the two groups ( P>0.05). The difference in changes in diabetic foot self-screening scores between intervention group and control group was statistically significant ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:Specialist nurse-led precision health care management utilizing digital platforms can improve HbA1c and enhance self-management behaviors for diabetic foot in patients with type 2 diabetes, which is expected to be promoted and applied in the outpatient management of diabetes patients.

Aim To study the mechanism of adipose mesenchymal stem cell exosomes(ASC-exo)inhibition of fluorescein isothiocyanate(FITC)-induced atopic dermatitis(AD).Methods The mouse age,extrac-tion method,and the concentration of a solution of typeⅠ collagen enzyme and other conditions were compared to study the effects on the morphology and quantity of adipose mesenchymal stem cells(ASCs)after extrac-ted.FITC-induced mouse model in vivo was estab-lished and different doses of ASC-exo were given to measure ear thickness,ear weight and ear scratching times of mice.HE staining was used to observe the pathological changes of ear tissue of mice.The non-toxicity of ASC-exo was detected.IgE,IL-5,IL-13 and other cytokines were detected by ELISA.The gene ex-pressions of TSLP,IL-33,occludin,Claudin-1(CLDN-1)and E-cadherin were detected by RT-qPCR.The protein expression was detected by immunohistochemis-try.Results An efficient method for extracting ASCs was established.Compared with the blank group,mice in the model group showed obvious AD symptoms.Compared with the model group,ASC-exo administra-tion group significantly reduced the number of ear scratches,epidermal thickening,inflammatory cell infil-tration and the secretion of Th2 cytokines IL-5 and IL-13.Meanwhile,ASC-exo administration group signifi-cantly increased the expression of structural proteins CLDN-1 and occludin in epithelial cells and decreased the expression of TSLP and IL-33.Conclusions ASC-exo can significantly improve Th2 skin inflamma-tion in AD mice,and its mechanism may be through in-creasing the expression of tight junction proteins and adhesion link protein in epithelial cells,repairing the skin barrier,and inhibiting the key promoters of allergy TSLP and IL-33.

Aim To study whether intravenous injec-tion of miR-129-3p mimetic(agomir)can resist bone loss caused by hind limb disuse,and to provide new i-deas for preventing bone loss in microgravity environ-ment.Methods Forty-eight C57BL/6J male mice were randomly divided into the control group(CON),tail suspension model group(TS),tail suspension+miR-129-3p agomir administration group(miRNA)and tail suspension+miR-129-3p negative sequence agomir control group(NC).The miRNA group was given 4 mg·kg-1 miR-129-3p agomir by intravenous injection into the medial canthus twice a week.The NC agomir group were consistent with those in the miR-129-3p agomir group,and the CON and TS groups were given only equal volumes of normal saline.After four weeks,all mice were sacrificed and samples were collected.Micro-CT scan of femur,three-point femur bending test,serum bone metabolism index detection,oxidative stress index detection and osteogenesis-related protein expression analysis in bone tissue were per-formed.Results After four weeks,the number of tra-becular bone in the TS group was significantly re-duced,and Tb.BMD,Tb.Th,Tb.N,Tb.BS/TV and Tb.BV/TV were significantly lower than those in the CON group(P＜0.01).While Tb.Sp TS group was significantly higher than the CON group(P＜0.05),the maximum load and flexural strength of the femur significantly decreased(P＜0.01),the content of ser-um bone formation index PINP was significantly lower than that of the CON group(P＜0.01),and the con-tent of bone resorption index CTX-I was significantly higher than that of the CON group(P＜0.01),the content of serum oxidative damage indexes 8-iso-PGF2α and 8-OHdG significantly increased(P＜0.01),and the expression of osteogenesis-related pro-teins in bone tissue markedly decreased(P＜0.01).However,the increase or decrease of all indexes in miRNA group was significantly lower than that in TS group.Conclusions miR-129-3p mimetic can signifi-cantly reduce bone loss caused by hind limb disuse.This experiment provides a new idea and method for preventing bone loss in microgravity environment.

Objective:To investigate the effects of two anastomosis methods on perioperative and pathological outcomes during totally laparoscopic right hemicolectomy (TLRH).Methods:In a national multicenter snapshot study, 1,854 patients who underwent laparoscopic right hemicolectomy were enrolled from 52 tertiary hospitals across China. The post-hoc analysis based on this study compared the data of 303 patients who underwent TLRH. Patients were divided into the antiperistaltic group (33 cases) and the isoperistaltic group (270 cases) according to type of anastomosis. Due to the significant difference in sample size between the two groups, propensity score matching (PSM) was performed to eliminate the influence of baseline characteristic discrepancies. The matching was based on the following known confounding factors: age, gender, body mass index (BMI), history of abdominal surgery, and history of diabetes, with a caliper value of 0.2. Perioperative and pathological outcomes were compared between the two groups.Results:After PSM, 33 patients were included in the antiperistaltic group and 65 patients in the isoperistaltic group. There were no statistically significant differences in baseline data between the two groups (all P>0.05). No significant differences were observed between the two groups in terms of operation time, blood loss, time to first defecation, time to first oral intake, or the incidence and grading of complications either (all P>0.05). However, length of postoperative hospital stay in the isoperistaltic group was significantly shorter than that in the antiperistaltic group, however (7.0 [6.0, 9.0] days vs. 8.0 [7.0, 10.5] days, P=0.049). In terms of pathological outcomes, there were also no statistically significant differences between the two groups in the number of harvested lymph nodes or the number of positive lymph nodes (all P>0.05). Conclusions:The two digestive tract reconstruction modalities, antiperistaltic and isoperistaltic anastomosis, have comparable perioperative safety and efficacy in TLRH. The isoperistaltic group had better outcomes in terms of postoperative hospital stay.

Objective:To construct a health education checklist for safety management of oral antitumor drugs in tumor patients, so as to provide a guidance for clinical nurses in practice, thereby improving the drug safety of patients taking oral antitumor drugs.Methods:Based on the cognition-behavior theoretical framework, a preliminary draft of a health education checklist for safety management of oral antitumor drugs in tumor patients was developed through literature review. The Delphi method was used to conduct consultations with 17 experts from July to September 2024 to revise and add or delete the contents of the checklist based on the experts' assignments of importance to the indicators at each level and the textual comments made.Results:A total of two rounds of expert consultation were conducted. The final established health education checklist for safety management of oral antitumor drugs in tumor patients included 4 primary and 28 secondary indicators. In the two rounds of consultation, the positive coefficient of experts was 100.0%, the coefficient of expert authority was 0.93, the coefficients of variation for the two rounds of expert ratings were 0 to 0.173 and 0 to 0.151, and the coefficients of Kendall's concordance were 0.141 (χ 2=74.461, P<0.001) and 0.113 (χ 2=59.549, P=0.002) , respectively. Conclusions:The health education checklist for safety management of oral antitumor drugs in tumor patients has good scientific, reliable and clinical practical value, which can provide scientific, standardized and convenient practical guidance for clinical nurses to implement health education on drug safety management for patients taking oral antitumor drugs.
