Objective To explore the methods of continuing education for advanced endoscope operations by diges-tive specialists through the establishment and teaching effect evaluation of the ERCP(endoscope retrograde cholan-giopancreatography)introductory training mode.Methods A total of 26 trainees from 3 sessions of the ERCP intro-ductory training courses at Peking Union Medical College Hospital from September 2023 to September 2024 were in-cluded.The teaching effects of the training courses and its 5 modules were subjectively and objectively evaluated by questionnaires,on-site tests and evaluations by senior ERCP operators.Results Through the ERCP introductory training courses,the trainees'self-evaluated proficiency in duodenoscope structure(pre-training:2.4±2.4,post-training:8.2±1.5,P＜0.001),duodenoscope operation(pre-training:1.2±2.2,post-training:6.6±1.8,P＜0.001),papillary cannulation(pre-training:0.5±1.3,post-training:5.4±1.8,P＜0.001),intra-bile duct operation(pre-training:0.2±0.6,post-training:4.9±2.1,P＜0.001),and identification of intra-bile duct lesions(pre-training:1.7±2.1,post-training:6.0±2.0,P＜0.001)was significantly improved.The accuracy rate of the trainees'theoretical tests and picture recognition before training was 37.2％and then increased up to 62.8％after training.Before training,all trainees were considered by senior operators as not ready to start ERCP training on real patients,while after training,69.2％(18/26)of the trainees were considered ready to start ERCP training on real patients.Conclusions The multi-module ERCP introductory training courses have a significant effect in terms of laying a foundation for trainees to start ERCP training on patients and of providing a reference for the con-tinuing education mode of advanced endoscope operations for digestive specialists in China.

Objective:To analyze the real-world practices of resecting sessile colorectal polyps of varying long diameters using cold forcep polypectomy (CFP), cold snare polypectomy (CSP), or endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR).Methods:A total of 12 290 nonpedunculated colorectal polyps of long diameter ≤19 mm (from 10 295 patients) were retrospectively enrolled from January 2022 to December 2023. Polypectomy was conducted by 30 endoscopists. The polyps were categorized into three groups based on long diameter: 1-5 mm, >5-10 mm and >10-19 mm, and the differences of polypectomy methods were compared in three groups. The usage of hemostatic clips in CSP among >5-10 mm polyps and the changes in resection methods between 2022 and 2023 were analyzed.Results:CFP (6 769 polyps, 81.7%) was the predominant method for resecting 1-5 mm sessile polyps (8 289 polyps). For sessile polyps sized >5-10 mm (2 455 polyps), CSP was used most (1 372, 55.9%), although its utilization varied significantly among physicians with the median usage rate of 52.9% (40.3%, 60.0%). EMR (1 349 poolyps, 87.3%) was the main method for >10-19 mm sessile polyps. The usage rate of CSP in sessile polypectomy for polyps >5-10 mm significantly increased from 45.7% (503/1 101) in 2022 to 64.2% (869/1 354) in 2023. The overall frequency of using clip in CSP for >5-10 mm sessile polyps was 40.1% (550/1 372), demonstrating notable variability among different endoscopists with median usage rate of 48.3% (29.8%, 67.9%).Conclusion:Varied resection methods are observed among endoscopists for sessile polyps measuring ≤19 mm. CFP is primarily utilized for polyps of 1-5 mm, while CSP is favored for polyps >5-10 mm, with an increasing annual usage rate. EMR is the main approach for the polyps >10-19 mm. Additionally, notable variations in the use of metal clips during CSP are observed among different physicians.

Objective This study aimed to investigate the current status of psychological flexibility among nursing man-agers and identify its influencing factors,thereby providing a basis for developing targeted intervention strategies.Methods A cross-sectional survey was conducted from October to December 2024 using convenience sampling to enroll 300 nursing managers in Guangdong Province,China.Data were collected through a general information questionnaire,the Acceptance and Action Questionnaire-Ⅱ(AAQ-Ⅱ),the Perceived Social Support Scale(PSSS),and the Simplified Coping Style Questionnaire(SCSQ).Results The mean AAQ-Ⅱ score of nursing managers was 28.40±8.07.Psychological flexibility(AAQ-Ⅱ score)showed a significant negative correlation with perceived social support(PSSS score:48.30±12.02;r=-0.755,P＜0.05)and positive coping style(SCSQ-positive subscale:17.74±5.49;r=-0.765,P＜0.05),while exhibiting a positive correlation with negative coping style(SCSQ-negative subscale:11.34±4.05;r=0.717,P＜0.05).Multiple regression analysis revealed that social support level,coping style,age,years of management experience,and professional title were significant predictors of psychological flexibility(P＜0.05).Conclusion Nursing managers demonstrated a moderate level of psychological flexibility.Interventions tailored to address social support,coping strategies,and demographic factors(e.g.,age,management experience,and professional title)are warranted to enhance psychological flexibility in this population.

Objective To explore the selection strategy of diagnostic and therapeutic regimens and assess the efficacy for postoperative infection following internal fixation of patellar fractures. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 12 patients with postoperative infection after internal fixation of patellar fractures. Results A total of 6 patients underwent complete removal of the internal fixation devices during debridement and were subsequently fixed with knee braces, while the other 6 had their original internal fixation devices removed and replaced with Kirschner wire fixation. Three patients developed septic arthritis and underwent knee arthroscopic lavage treatment. All 12 patients underwent bacterial culture and metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) testing, and the key pathogenic bacteria were successfully identified by mNGS. All wounds achieved primary healing within 2 weeks after closure. At the final follow-up, all patients exhibited good fracture healing, with Böstman patellar fracture function scores ranging from 24 to 29 (mean score of 26.58), and the outcomes were evaluated as excellent in 7 cases and good in 5, resulting in an excellent and good rate of 100.0%. Conclusion For patients with early and delayed postoperative infections following internal fixation of patellar fractures, removal of the internal fixation devices can help reduce the risk of infection recurrence. For patients with concurrent septic arthritis, early diagnosis and timely implementation of arthroscopic joint debridement and irrigation and drainage are crucial.

Objective:To evaluate the diagnostic value of rapid on-site evaluation (ROSE) performed by endoscopists for solid pancreatic lesions requiring tissue for immunohistochemistry (IHC) staining with different approach of endoscopic ultrasound-guided tissue acquisition (EUS-TA).Methods:After screening 1 573 cases who underwent EUS-TA operation at the Endoscopy Center of Peking Union Medical College Hospital between August 2018 and October 2022, a total of 65 cases of solid pancreatic lesions whose diagnosis rely on IHC staining was collected and summarized with clinical data of each case. Among 65 cases, there were 46 cases of pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (PNETs), 13 cases of pancreatic solid pseudo-papillary tumors (SPTs), and 6 cases of lymphomas and mesenchymal. Patients were categorized into ROSE group (36 cases) and non-ROSE group (29 cases) according to the presence or absence of endoscopists performed ROSE during EUS-TA operation. They were further divided into subgroups of FNA-ROSE (26 cases), FNB-ROSE (10 cases), FNA-non-ROSE (24 cases) and FNB-non-ROSE (5 cases) according to the type of EUS-TA. Diagnostic accuracy and IHC success rate were compared between different groups and subgroups. Binomial logistic multifactorial regression analysis was used to evaluate the influence of ROSE and EUS-TA type on diagnostic accuracy and IHC success rate.Results:There were no statistically significant differences between ROSE group and non-ROSE group in terms of age, gender, bilirubin level, CA19-9 level, lesion site, lesion size, composition ratio of diagnosis, and surgical rate. The differences in mean size of lesions, needle gauge, location of puncturation, and number of needle pass between subgroups were not statistically significant. The diagnostic accuracy was 88.9% in ROSE group and 79.3% in non-ROSE group, and the difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( P=0.023). The diagnostic accuracy of FNA-ROSE group was higher than that of FNA-non-ROSE group (88.5% vs 75.0%), but the difference was not statistically significant ( P>0.100). The differences in diagnostic accuracy and success rate of IHC between FNB-ROSE group and FNB-non-ROSE group were not statistically significant. Binomial logistic multifactorial regression analysis did not reveal any independent influences on diagnostic accuracy. Conclusions:ROSE performed by endoscopists improved diagnostic accuracy of EUS-TA in solid pancreatic lesions requiring IHC staining, and therefore is potentially valuable for improving the diagnostic efficiency of EUS-TA for such diseases.

Objective:To explore the efficacy and safety of tislelizumab combined with zanubrutinib in the treatment of refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL).Methods:A prospective observational study was conducted. A total of 10 patients with refractory DLBCL admitted to Beijing Chaoyang District Third Ring Cancer Hospital, a specialist medical consortium of Cancer Hospital Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences from November 2020 to February 2023 were prospectively collected. All the 10 refractory DLBCL patients at least received first-line systemic therapy containing rituximab; and they were given tislelizumab 200 mg, intravenous infusion, on day 1 and zanubrutinib 160 mg, orally, twice a day, day 1-day 21, with 21 days as 1 cycle; 6 patients received second-line therapy and 4 patients received ≥ third-line therapy. Subsequent regimens were added with rituximab (375 mg/m 2, intravenous infusion on day 1). The primary endpoint will be reached 12 months after enrollment if there was no disease progression or other events that were scheduled to withdraw from the study. The therapeutic efficacy was summarized at the end of the follow-up in March 2023. Kaplan-Meier method was used to make survival analysis and the adverse reactions were summed up. Results:There were 6 males and 4 females, all at stage Ⅲ-Ⅳ; and age [ M ( Q1, Q3)] was 55 years (50 years, 69 years). All 10 patients completed 90 cycles of treatment with tislelizumab and zanubrutinib, with the cycle number of 8 cycles (2 cycles, 24 cycles). The follow-up time was 19 months (11 months, 28 months); 4 cases achieved complete remission, 3 cases achieved partial remission and 1 case had the stable disease. The progression-free survival was 8.5 months (1.3 months, 27.0 months); the median remission duration time and median overall survival time were not reached. Treatment-related adverse reactions included 2 cases of neutropenia, 1 case of anemia, and 1 case of elevated alanine aminotransferase and aspartate aminotransferase, all of which were grade 1-2. Conclusions:Tislelizumab combined with zanubrutinib has good clinical efficacy and safety in the treatment of refractory DLBCL.

Objective This study aimed to explore the relationships between residential greenness and cardiometabolic risk factors among rural adults in Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region(Xinjiang)and thus provide a theoretical basis and data support for improving the health of residents in this region. Methods We recruited 9,723 adult rural residents from the 51st Regiment of the Third Division of the Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps in September 2016.The normalized difference vegetation index(NDVI)was used to estimate residential greenness.The generalized linear mixed model(GLMM)was used to examine the association between residential greenness and cardiometabolic risk factors. Results Higher residential greenness was associated with lower cardiometabolic risk factor prevalence.After adjustments were made for age,sex,education,and marital status,for each interquartile range(IQR)increase of NDVI500-m,the risk of hypertension was reduced by 10.3%(OR=0.897,95%CI=0.836-0.962),the risk of obesity by 20.5%(OR=0.795,95%CI=0.695-0.910),the risk of type 2 diabetes by 15.1%(OR=0.849,95%CI=0.740-0.974),and the risk of dyslipidemia by 10.5%(OR=0.895,95%CI=0.825-0.971).Risk factor aggregation was reduced by 20.4%(OR=0.796,95%CI=0.716-0.885)for the same.Stratified analysis showed that NDVI500-m was associated more strongly with hypertension,dyslipidemia,and risk factor aggregation among male participants.The association of NDVI500-m with type 2 diabetes was stronger among participants with a higher education level.PM10 and physical activity mediated 1.9%-9.2%of the associations between NDVI500-m and obesity,dyslipidemia,and risk factor aggregation. Conclusion Higher residential greenness has a protective effect against cardiometabolic risk factors among rural residents in Xinjiang.Increasing the area of green space around residences is an effective measure to reduce the burden of cardiometabolic-related diseases among rural residents in Xinjiang.
