OBJECTIVE To construct a preoperative medication reconciliation model assisted by a localized large language model （LLM） for gastric cancer and evaluate its clinical efficacy. METHODS A total of 249 gastric cancer patients with a history of continuous medication before admission in the Gastric Surgery Department of Jiangsu Cancer Hospital were retrospectively enrolled. Patients were divided into training set （154 cases） and validation set （95 cases） based on the order of time. Based on guidelines， drug package inserts， and other evidence， a standardized medication reconcili ation process and a structured knowledge base were constructed. DeepSeek-V3 LLM was deployed privately in the hospital， combined with retrieval-augmented generation technology， to achieve automated integration of medication information， risk screening， and generation of personalized recommendations. The quality of LLM-generated recommendations was evaluated using automatic metrics （BERT Score and ROUGE-1， 2， L） and manual scoring [seven-dimensional index （7DI） ] . Spearman correlation analysis was performed to explore the correlation between automatic scores and manual scores. Cronbach’s α coefficient was used to test the internal consistency of manual scoring results. The time consumed by manual and LLM-assisted medication reconciliation was compared across tasks of different difficulty levels （simple， moderate， and high）. RESULTS A structured knowledge base covering 8 major drug categories was finally established， covering common and high-risk preoperative medication scenarios and providing structured retrieval support for the LLM. For automatic evaluation， the precision， recall， and F1-score of BERT Score were 0.783±0.033， 0.811±0.038， and 0.796±0.028， respectively. The F1-scores of ROUGE-1， ROUGE-2 and ROUGE-L were 0.566±0.067， 0.338±0.076 and 0.468±0.082， respectively. The 7DI scores from three manual raters ranged from 32.06 to 33.45. The F1-score of automatic scoring was significantly positively correlated with the 7DI score of manual scoring （maximum coefficient of determination＝0.611， P ＜0.001）， and the internal consistency of manual scoring was good （Cronbach’s α ＝ 0.876）. In terms of efficiency， LLM-assisted medication reconciliation reduced time consumption by more than 90% compared with manual reconciliation in the simple， moderate， and high-difficulty groups （ P ＜0.001）. CONCLUSIONS The medication reconciliation model constructed based on a localized LLM and structured knowledge base shows high accuracy， consistency， and clinical applicability in complex preoperative medication scenarios for gastric cancer. It can improve the efficiency of medication reconciliation and reduce potential medication risks.

Objective To examine the potential causal associations between different dietary taste preferences and the risk of prostatitis, so as to provide reference for the primary prevention of this disease. Methods Summary-level genome-wide association study(GWAS)data on five taste preferences-sweet, sour, salty, bitter and spicy—were obtained from the GWAS, and GWAS data for prostatitis were sourced from the FinnGen database. The potential causal associations between the dietary taste preferences and risk of prostatitis were analyzed with MR. The inverse variance weighted(IVW)method served as the primary analytical approach. Heterogeneity was assessed using Cochran's Q test. Horizontal pleiotropy was evaluated via the MR-Egger intercept and Mendelian randomization pleiotropy residual sum and outlier(MR-PRESSO)tests. Leave-one-out analysis was performed to evaluate the influence of individual single nucleotide polymorphisms(SNPs)on the causal estimates. Results Preferences for sweet(OR=1.338, 95%CI:1.024-1.748, P=0.033)and salty(OR=1.356, 95%CI:1.092-1.684, P=0.006)tastes showed positive causal associations with the risk of prostatitis, whereas a preference for bitter taste was negatively associated(OR=0.638, 95%CI:0.416-0.978, P=0.039). No significant causal links were observed for sour or spicy taste preferences(P＞0.05). Sensitivity analyses and reverse MR analyses further supported the robustness of the findings.Conclusion Sweet and salty taste preferences may be potential dietary risk factors for prostatitis, while bitter taste preference could play a protective role. Further research is needed to elucidate these causal relationships, which may contribute to developing tailored dietary intervention strategies for prostatitis prevention.

Objective: To examine the reciprocal relationships of anxiety and depressive symptoms,uncertainty stress with academic buoyancy among college students, providing evidence for mental health promotion and academic resilience enhancement. Methods: A multi stage cluster random sampling method was used to selected 741 undergraduates from grade 1 to 2 of a university in Xuzhou, Jiangsu Province. Participants completed two waves of surveys (T1: October 2022; T2: October 2023) using the Uncertainty Stress Scale, Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9), Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7 (GAD-7), and Academic Buoyancy Scale. Cross lagged models analyzed bidirectional relationships between three mental health variables and academic buoyancy, followed by latent variable modeling integrating all mental health dimensions. Results: Cross lagged model results revealed that T1 uncertainty stress negatively predicted T2 academic buoyancy ( β =-0.14), while T1 academic buoyancy negatively predicted T2 uncertainty stress ( β =-0.11); T1 depressive symptom negatively predicted T2 academic buoyancy ( β =-0.08), while T1 academic buoyancy negatively predicted T2 depressive symptom ( β =-0.09); furthermore, T1 academic buoyancy negatively predicted T2 anxiety symptom( β =-0.10) ( P <0.05). Results from the latent variable cross lagged model of psychological problems (constructed from the three mental health variables) indicated that T1 psychological problems negatively predicted T2 academic buoyancy ( β =-0.09), while T1 academic buoyancy negatively predicted T2 psychological problems ( β =-0.09) ( P <0.05). Conclusions Longitudinal bidirectional relationships exist between mental health status and academic buoyancy in college students. Better mental health facilitates higher academic buoyancy.

Objective:To analyze the changes of serum metabolites in patients with acute pancreatitis (AP) by non-targeted metabolomics method.Methods:Serum samples and clinical data of 15 AP patients hospitalized in the Affiliated Hospital of Jiangnan University from August to September 2024 were collected and included in the AP group, including 9 males and 6 females, aged (55.4±15.3) years. The serum and clinical data of 25 patients with colon polyps in the same hospital during the same period of time were collected, including 15 males and 10 females, aged (61.2±11.5) years, and were included in the control group. Serum metabolomic detection was performed using the ultra-high performance liquid chromatography tandem Fourier transform mass spectrometer. The modeling method was orthogonal partial least square discriminant analysis, and principal component analysis was performed on the data matrix to screen the differential metabolites in serum of AP patients. The Kyoto Encyclopedia database of Genes and Genomes was used to annotate differential metabolites, and the pathway of differential metabolite enrichment was analyzed by software.Results:The principal component analysis showed that the contribution ratio of the first principal component was 15.1%, the proportion of the second principal component was 10.8%, and the total proportion of the two was 25.9%. In principal component analysis, two groups of samples can be clearly distinguished and show obvious clustering characteristics. According to the analysis of OPLS-DA model, there were significant differences in serum metabolic profiles between AP group and control group. There were 683 differentially expressed metabolites between the two groups, with 367 differentially expressed metabolites up-regulated compared with the control group and 316 differentially expressed metabolites down-regulated compared with the control group. It is mainly Phosphatidic Acid (Lte4/8: 0) (+ 218%), Omeprazole Sulphone (-38%), and 2-(Propylthio) Nicotinic Acid (2-propyl thionicotinic acid) (-58%), Gein (salicyricetin) (-47%) and so on. Pathway enrichment analysis showed that the differential metabolites in AP patients were mainly concentrated in citric acid cycle, arginine biosynthesis and glycerophospholipid metabolism pathways.Conclusion:Serum metabolites in AP patients change significantly, including citric acid cycle, arginine biosynthesis, glycerophospholipid metabolism.

Objective The aim of this study is to discuss the causal relationship between periodontal disease(PD)and prostate cancer(PCa).Methods A two-sample bidirectional Mendelian randomization(MR)analysis based on publicly statistical data from genome-wide association studies(GWAS)was conducted.MR Egger,weighted medium,simple mode and weighted mode were supplemented,while inverse variance weighted analysis(IVW)was the main method of analysis.Heterogeneity testing,pleiotropy testing and leave-one-out testing were used to assess the sensitivity and stabili-ty.Results The results of MR analysis showed that PD had no significant impact on the occurrence of PCa:East Asian(IVW,PD:OR=1.07,P=0.48);European(IVW,PD:OR=1.00,P=0.37,periodontitis:OR=1.03,P=0.14,chronic gingivitis:OR=0.99,P=0.37,chronic periodontitis:OR=1.03,P=0.22).The reverse MR analysis also did not show a causal relationship between PCa and PD:East Asian(IVW,PD:OR=0.97,P=0.22);European(IVW,PD:OR=0.84,P=0.44,periodontitis:OR=1.01,P=0.75,chronic gingivitis:OR=0.93,P=0.23,chronic periodontitis:OR=0.99,P=0.80).The results of other analysis were consistent with those of IVW analysis.Conclusions The results of our two-sample bidirectional MR analysis do not support a causal relationship between PD and PCa.

Objective:To systematically evaluate the effectiveness of home care services nurse practitioners provide for older adults.Methods:Randomized controlled trials of home care services provided by nurse practitioners were electronically searched in PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, Cochrane Library, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, WanFang Data, and China Biology Medicine disc. The search period was from database establishment to January 30, 2024. Literature was screened according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The Cochrane Collaboration risk of bias assessment tool was used to evaluate the methodological quality of the literature, and meta-analysis was performed using Stata 15 software.Results:A total of 19 articles were included, involving 29 217 older adults. Meta-analysis showed that compared with conventional group, older adults who received home care services provided by nurse practitioners had better systolic blood pressure [ WMD=-5.607, 95% CI (-10.692, -0.522), P=0.031], body mass index [ WMD=-2.497, 95% CI (-4.550, -0.444), P=0.017], service satisfaction [ SMD=0.484, 95% CI (0.003, 0.964), P=0.049] and family caregiver burden [ SMD=-0.366, 95% CI (-0.670, -0.062), P=0.018], but higher total monthly medical costs per person [ WMD=105.103, 95% CI (24.932, 185.274), P=0.010]. There were no differences between the two groups regarding unplanned hospitalization rates, emergency room visits, blood glucose levels, lipid levels, mortality, quality of life, and activities of daily living. Conclusions:Home care services provided by nurse practitioners have improved older adults' satisfaction while lowering older adults' systolic blood pressure and body mass index and reducing the burden on family caregivers. However, the total cost of medical care per older adult per month is high. Although subgroup analyses of key indicators were conducted, it was still impossible to clarify the factors that influence the effectiveness of services provided by nurse practitioners.

Objective To evaluate the application effect of perioperative cluster nursing interventions in patients under-going robot-assisted radical prostatectomy.Methods A total of 122 prostate cancer patients who underwent robot-assisted sur-gery from January 2023 to December 2024 were divided into the control group(routine care,55 cases)and the observation group(cluster nursing,67 cases)according to the nursing methods.The psychological status,surgery-related indicators,postoperative recovery,incidence of perioperative complications,and patient satisfaction were compared between the two groups.Results The observation group demonstrated a statistically significant decrease in postoperative anxiety and depression scores compared to the control group(P=0.034,P=0.005).The observation group exhibited shorter operative time and less intraoperative blood loss,with both differences being statistically significant(P=0.016,P＜0.001).In terms of postoperative recovery,the obser-vation group showed faster recovery of bowel function,shorter time for catheter insertion and postoperative hospital stay compared to the control group(P=0.010,P＜0.001,P＜0.001).In the observation group,the incidence of systemic postoperative in-fection was lower than that of the control group(4.5％vs 18.2％,P=0.015).The perioperative hypothermia rate in the obser-vation group was lower than that of the control group(38.8％vs 60.0％,P=0.020).There was no statistically significant difference in postoperative urinary fistula rate between the two groups(P=0.477).The observation group achieved an overall patient satisfaction rate of 98.51％,with higher satisfaction scores compared to the control group(P=0.008).Conclusion Perioperative cluster nursing measures yield favorable outcomes in patients undergoing robot-assisted radical prostatectomy.It can not only shorten the operation time,promote the postoperative recovery of patients,but also reduce the anxiety and depression of patients and complica-tions,and improve patient satisfaction.

Objective:To investigate the potential causal relationships between gut microbiota composition and the risk of developing various subtypes of breast cancer by using bidirectional two-sample Mendelian randomization(MR).Methods:The research utilized genome-wide association studies(GWAS) data on gut microbiota from the MiBioGen database and GWAS data on breast cancer from the Breast Cancer Association Consortium (BCAC). In this MR study, inverse variance weighted (IVW), weighted median, MR Egger, and MR-PRESSO methods were used. Additionally, reverse MR and stratified analyses were conducted to assess reverse causality and the impact on different subtypes of breast cancer.Results:Adlercreutzia (IVW OR=0.92, 95% CI: 0.87-0.98, P=0.01) and Parabacteroides (IVW OR=0.87, 95% CI: 0.79-0.96, P=0.007) exhibited a statistically significant protective effect on breast cancer. Conversely, Sellimonas (IVW OR=1.05, 95% CI: 1.01-1.09, P=0.01) was significantly associated with an increased risk of breast cancer. Desulfovibrio (IVW OR=0.94, 95% CI: 0.88-1.00, P=0.04) and Ruminococcaceae (UCG013) (IVW OR=0.92, 95% CI: 0.86-0.99, P=0.03) presented suggestive protective effects against breast cancer. Furthermore, stratified analysis revealed that the protective effect of Adlercreutzia against breast cancer persisted in the estrogen receptor(ER)-positive subtypes, while Desulfovibrio persisted in the ER-negative subtypes. Sellimonas was causally associated with the risk of ER-positive subtypes. CACNA1S was identified as the functional gene of Adlercreutzia, and associated with favorable prognosis in breast cancer, while ERBB4 was identified as the functional gene of Sellimonas and associated with poor prognosis in breast cancer. Conclusions:This study identifies the causal relationships between gut microbiota and breast cancer, suggesting a novel target for early clinical intervention and treatment, with potential implications for future functional analysis.

Objective:To investigate the use of non-vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants(NOACs)and their associated comorbidities in patients aged 80 years and older with non-valvular atrial fibrillation(NVAF), as well as to understand the challenges faced by elderly patients receiving NOAC therapy.Methods:We retrospectively enrolled elderly patients(≥80 years old)with NVAF who were treated with NOACs at a hospital in Beijing from January 2018 to August 2023.Patients were categorized into two age groups: 80-89 years and ≥90 years.We collected baseline data, including demographic characteristics, details of atrial fibrillation, comorbidities, laboratory test results, and medication combinations, for descriptive statistical analysis and intergroup comparisons.Results:A total of 695 elderly patients with NVAF receiving NOACs were included in the study, with a median age of 84 years.Among these patients, there were 328 males(47.19%, 328/695)and 422 cases of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation(60.72%, 422/695).The age group of 80-89 years comprised 640 cases(92.09%, 640/695), while the group aged 90 years and above included 55 cases(7.91%, 55/695).The use of NOACs in patients aged 90 and older exhibited an increasing trend over the years.Inter-group comparisons indicated that the ≥90 years group had lower body mass index, longer hospital stays, increased bedridden time, poorer renal function, lower levels of albumin and hemoglobin, and higher D-dimer levels.Inappropriate dosing of DOACs occurred in 49.64%(345/695)of cases, with 90.72%(313/345)receiving doses lower than recommended.Lower-than-recommended doses were more prevalent in the ≥90 years group, while higher-than-recommended doses were more common in the 80-89 years group.Polypharmacy was noted in 61.29%(426/695)of patients.The concurrent use of antiplatelet drugs, rhythm control medications, and ventricular rate control drugs was observed in 12.52%(87/695), 19.57%(136/695), and 54.53%(379/695)of patients, respectively, with no significant differences between groups.Conclusions:Inappropriate dosing and polypharmacy are prevalent issues among elderly NVAF patients.Therefore, it is essential to enhance multidisciplinary collaboration to optimize anticoagulation treatment strategies.
